    Rockfall Skarn is irritating when I'm soloing with an Axe. A +7 Drask axe only does like 90 damage to his armor and by the time I break something he either enrages or moves to the next zone both of which regenerate his armor.

    Found your problem. You’re supposed to go in with three other damage sponges teammates and let them eat rocks.

    My apologies if there's a backlog of guild invites. I ended up not logging into Dauntless last night; to be honest I might not be able to give out invites tonight either. At worst, it'll be Friday night.

    Can you give other people invite rights?

    Doesn't the axe hit under the armor when you do the upward swing instead?

    As far as I can tell it's only if you hit an unarmored spot like his belly.

    I wonder if knockout king and weighted strikes stack...i'm running +6 weighted strikes on my chainblades right now and just realized i can also do +6 knockout king which is +30% stagger damage and i'm thinking hmm

    Everything stacks.

    I'm working toward a Support Slayer... +6 Medic, +6 Fortress, +6 Guardian, +6 Conduit. Skarn lantern. Either pike or repeaters for the haste buffs for everyone. Turbo lantern charge. Generating and tossing out tons of shields and rezzing people to full health (with moar shields!)

    It works pretty durn well even with stuff only at +5.

    Alright, lesson learned, the two bonus patrols must be done solo.

    Otherwise idiots get wounded, roll to their deaths, and the bonus is wasted.

    Why not just give in and use hammer? Outside of a coordinated group I'd never do skarn hammerless. My Rocky boi gotta get turned to gravel. He takes so much more damage!

    Yeah this is why I use my bonus patrols on normals.

    Thanks for the feedback on booping, folks. I gave it a try last night, got run over a lot, but also managed to conk some monsters on the head just right.

    Another question: for upgrade orbs, is there anything specific I should be doing to get them to drop? Sometimes I kill a monster and get a handful, other times I get none at all. Do I need to be breaking more stuff, or is it just the whims of RNG?

    I think they have a chance to drop when parts break, but really the only reliable way is patrols.

    Skarn setting up for the tornado move is also a really good tell

    Gotta let him get setup, spin for a second or so, then you can get the boop off on him

    It's currently the only one I'm having a hard time consistently booping. Most of the time I still do it too late and am met with a boulder's loving embrace

    The pike special can do it. If you’re a bit away and start charging it up (holding down the button), the tornado helpfully turns you right into line and you can just BLAST.

    He’s the only one I can reliably boop, cuz I don’t gotta aim or time anything.

    As a hammer user, I tend to use his tornado bit as a minute to let my hands rest a little, maybe chug the bonus damage potion, w/e. Cause otherwise Skarn is pretty much 100% me, in his face, swinging that hammer.

    Daily patrols give you 10 orbs guaranteed for the elemental you choose, but you only get 2 dailies and if you dont kill the behemoth it still uses one.

    Other than that its a bit of RNG.

    I think patrols always give you 10 orbs guaranteed, the dailies are an extra 10 orbs. And then the 30 day patrol boost is another 10 on top of that. Just got 60 flame orbs in about 10 minutes, which was just lovely.

    and IF you get caught by it, just hammer y as you get up, and youll shoot him, booping him out of it. Otherwise I don't think you can get close enough to shoot him out of it without being hit.

    Oof I didn't realize you lost your patrol bonus/couldn't re-use it if you failed a patrol, that's definitely going to influence when i do heroics going forward

    Yeah, this game has serious trouble running on PS4. Charrog and hellion fights turn into slideshows once the lava starts coming out.
    It’s listed under “known bugs”, the Charrog/Hellion performance problem on console.

    My least favourite fights are:
    1) Riftstalker
    2) Nyagagagaga (destroy the spikes you nincompoop teammates!)

    My easiest fights are:
    1) Valomyr (lightshow!)
    2) Charrog (I have Fireproof +6 and a big ice Hammer :razz: )

    Charrog and Valomyr are pretty easy, its the faster shit that causes problems for more people

    and getting a queue of 3 pistol wielders as teammates against a rockfall scarn is also not fun

    huh, i hate Kharabaks as much as the next person but I just hunted my first one post todays patch and um....they nerfed his invisibility so hard if anything he's more visible invisible than not...I'm not sure why they didn't just remove it at this point

    The main thing I hate about Karabaks is that it's basically impossible to break their claws. I am never going to get that helmet made -_-

    It took until this patch for me to realize that "aether vents" are those things that heal you, not the jumpy-spouts

    New patch added 3 dye positions instead of 2, so now I can play Pretty Slayer Princess far better :biggrin:

    And I have the impression that the interrupt indicator shows up way more often (on console).

    Managed to complete a weapon mastery, and if you continue using that weapon you earn xp to earn cores. Nice!

    It might be my imagination, but it seems like whatever they did to "optimize performance" has made aether orbs animate really oddly at a distance (like really framey). Has anyone else noticed this?

    Heyyyyyyyy man the Riftstalker is a really shitty fight. The amount of damage he does, and the speed with which he charges (or warp spins or whatever) is absolutely insane. Easily 10x harder than any fight leading up to it, for me.

    It’s a pretty big difficulty gap between him an Valomyr.

    All of a sudden I can't find a hunt. Sat in a Dire Patrol queue for 6 minutes. Alt-F4'd. Now I've been in a Ragetail queue for 3 minutes.
