FYI I used a Vasto Prime Incarnon when I cleared the Steel Path node and it absolutely shredded the weak points, even when I was firing it from quite far away. Laetum works wonders too, at least the status/raw damage version with the no crit evolution did. Incarnon guns are generally great because the weak points in both phases count for granting them charge, makes keeping them transformed during the fight trivial (it helps that they are generally incredibly powerful guns too). Just avoid anything that relies on status, the weak points are immune.

I really haven't found it all that bad, the key was staying mobile. I beat the Steel Path version while using Mesa with no stagger immunity mods at all by bullet jumping around and aim gliding, most of it's attacks can't do anything to you when you're in the air. It also goes down pretty fast when you shoot it's weak points, and doesn't appear to have attenuation when doing so (or at least it's not noticeable). I'll take more bosses like this guy and Exploiter Orb any day over more attenuation/damage sponge bosses like the Archons or the Murmur boss.

That's just miniature spears with a fancy propelling mechanism! More proof long stick with pointy end is the superior weapon!

[–] Keegen 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I don't think his 4 is bugged, it works exactly the same way Ivara's Artemis Bow, Hildryn's Balefire or Dante's Noctua does, static cost to equip + additional energy per shot. Some Exalted weapons just don't have that extra constant drain on them.

[–] Keegen 5 points 5 days ago

They do, including getting the power strength bonus from Hardened Wellspring. It's the easiest way to maintain their energy other than Protea's Dispensary.

I admit, I haven't gotten Cyte-09 myself as all my rep is going straight into rank-ups right now but I've seen others play him and the guy looks like a powerhouse. His Exalted sniper rifle addresses the biggest issue that weapon type has - multi target viability. Shoot one guy, kill 4 others! Ressuply is just plain insane, even without using his 4 this ability is just crazy. Guaranteed status procs of whatever type you want on every shot! Heat is the obvious choice but Blast and Gas can be extremely effective at clearing crowds as well. Need to srtipo some armor? Corrosive is right there! Could use some CC to make landing those precision shots easier? Cold! This frame could have this one ability alone and he would still be one of the best gun frames available! Evade gives you near permanent invisibility as long as you play the frame the way he's supposed to be played. The CD looks bad but it starts ticking when you activate the ability, get enough precision kills and build enough duration and you can stay invisible all the time. Seek synergies with the rest of his kit perfectly, wall hacks and weak spot highlights make getting those precision kills a breeze without even needing to move from your sniping spot of choice. All in all, an amazing if maybe a bit solo-focused frame. I imagine making his whole kit work in a team might prove difficult, unless you forgo the 4 entirely and just run-and-gun with Ressuply and any accurate crit focused gun.

I started playing GW2 at the end of 2023 an been having a blast with it! I played WoW for a decade until the combo of Shadowlands and the Acti-Blizz allegations soured me on that company forever. I tried FFXIV with everyone going over to that game and the story was good but the button bloat pushed me away from really getting into it. I then had that MMO itch at the end of 2023 again and decided to try GW2 and it's been great. Fun story, good gameplay and most importantly no subscription. It's so nice to be able to play with breaks and come back whenever you want to with no need to open up your wallet every time, just buy the expansions and Living Worlds once and you are done!

It's a small rectangle that's some sort of tech with blue blobs of techrot on it. It does show up on the loot radar, which helps a little, but the dark blue glow stands out way less than the bright green one of the other cache collectible. Apparently it also can spawn up to 100m away from the cache which means it can be multiple tilesets away if you get unlucky.

[–] Keegen 5 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Pretty much same, I will do a cursory look in the area around it but won't waste a lot of time on them anymore. I don't know why DE made the Exterminate special caches be way more obvious with a giant bright green glow and a waypoint when you get close but made the Biocode so damn hard to spot. At least give them the same glowing outline as the rep collectables (an amazing addition BTW, makes them so much easier to spot than the Zariman or Sanctum Anatomica ones).

[–] Keegen 1 points 1 week ago

Yeah, you are probably fucked if you roll that combo. Your best hope would be the multi floor collapsed mall room or maybe the laser show one that has those small islands that stick out above the rest of it, hard to find much elevation otherwise.

[–] Keegen 1 points 1 week ago (4 children)

I just stood on the roof of one of the many smaller buildings available in the tileset and bombarded the enemies below with a transformed Laetum, that counted for the objective just fine. Granted, that was on the day of the update's release and I haven't done that bounty objective since so one of the patches might have broken it.

[–] Keegen 2 points 1 week ago

My school never held any big events like this one either (except for the recruitment open days, but those were entirely voluntary and mostly relegated to clubs) but I'm with Bocchi on this, those evens are hell for introverted socially anxious people, so I'm kinda glad we didn't. We did have a multiple days long class trip once and surviving that was a trial already!
