Love your video my dude. Feels like given how much success in this game comes down to context, a lot of the tips videos are just focussed on explaining the base mechanics that the tutorial does, but I like how you went for more of an opinion based breakdown, while still covering the literal differences between subclasses etc. It’s helpful and appreciated, cheers!

Wish the Vanguards were actually glass canons. Because of the damage bonus that axes and blunt weapons get to footman and knights, vanguard are often equally tanky to the other classes.

[@GrapeReason]

That's totally correct and I agree. Their "effective health" is nearly the same against blunt and chop damage. I'm still waiting for an ambusher buff...

When you get good at melee, archer becomes fun again actually. I'm usually 1st in the lobby as melee, as archer I can never put up numbers like that, so I focus more on "useful" objective stuff. Its a fun change of pace. Sucking at the game, and playing archer as a crutch will def stop you from having fun.

[@GrapeReason]

100%, close range crossbowman is actually fun. I still prefer diving headfirst into 20 people and staying alive for 20 seconds, but I feel you.

[@brudderchris868]

The only time I enjoy playing archer is when I just chuck javelins across the map then sprint at people with a knife and it surprisingly works most of the time

[@zZOMBIE2013]

I feel that Javelin Archers are more fair and fun to play, as you can get into the battle and hurl Javelins at your enemies. The fair part comes when you could actually block their shots and have a good ole fight with em.

It's definitely its own class and needs some buffs related to its individual playstyle.

Kreigsmesser is a bit broken right now. It’s almost as long as the greatsword (zweihander) and it attacks quicker. Especially the stab attack

Yeah, I agree. I discounted it because 55 dmg doesn't translate to fewer swings over 50, but the moveset and speed is too good.

[@slandshark]

I have tried everything other then archer. I keep coming back to the knight. I'm can't decide if I like a shield and one-handed or just a big two-handed weapon. But the plays I've done with knight have been so fun. I can take on 4 or 5 people and win. The swing radius on the big axes is so much fun. My favorite is the 'Q" ability with two handed, you can crush/kill someone in one glorious hit. It makes coming to rescue friends so much fun when you smash the crap out of an unsuspecting enemy with their back to you. Speaking of archers, if I can get in range of an archer there's a 99% chance I will kill it. One or two hits with a two-handed axe and it's dead.

[@GrapeReason]

I really like sword and shield, but I've been playing footman sword and shield. The giant weapons are super fun though.

[@XMysticHerox]

Oil flask is very strong when used right. You throw it behind team fights so that low health enemies back up into it. You can reliably get 2 kills that way and my best has been 5 with one flask. Just like in Mordhau. What you didn´t mention for the ambusher is that you can one shot people with the dagger special. It´s still not that great but pretty fun thing to try out.

[@GrapeReason]

Both good tips. I should have been specific that oil flask is a nightmare to aim on console. I'm sure you could do well with a mouse.

Ive the best method for the oil flask is too take a step back from the frontline, and launch the b**** over to the enemy rear. Less friendly damage, and a decent chance of catching those fleeing or joining the fight.

[@GrapeReason]

[@superninja_youtube]

I think the Footman's hunker-down is decent. The thing is that you don't need to play guessing games because it blocks from all(and/or most?) angles, so you can use it really aggressively like a Dark Souls parry. It depends on the situation if it's worth it. The damage is punishing enough to be concerned about, though be careful about kick-happy people.

[@GrapeReason]

It will truly shine when they add horses. It's an ok surprise mid combat but because of the Sprint system, at least on controller, it feels awful to do accidentally.

Me and my friend refer to killing archers as tunnel vision. It is apart of our law that you must focus an archer at all costs. We usually go 100 plus takedowns and around 75 kills to 9-12 deaths but it’s worth ruining all that just to kill an archer

[@GrapeReason]

Ha! We call it horse blinders, but same thing. Also, we've been calling them Larry's. Don't ask me why, just some player named LarryTheLump kept killing us on archer in the beta and now they are all Larry's.

You missed the main draw of the raider subclass - the 2 weapon slots. This mean you should be throwing a ton of weapons, picking up discarded ones off the floor and throwing again. You can deal a ton of damage that way.

The only fun thing about the archer class is finding an unsuspecting archer and blindsiding them. As soon as you get the first hit in, they never recover

As an Archer (just got the game) I kinda time the dance moves between two people battling and once the enemy backs up I let a shot go. The worst is when two archers start shooting at each other from across the battle field, wastes a lot of time and arrows.

I kinda wish that they had more diverse ults. Giving the poleman a horn since they are most comfortable at just out of reach of a team fight providing support via extra poke damage, helping to fortify, ect. Give man at arms the med kits since they in my experience tend to be more about tracking down vulnerable/alone targets (especially archers) and taking them out, so the ability to heal on the go feels well suited to that role while still being supportive in nature. Give the field engineer a banner to play into the idea of making a strong fortified location mid fight for your team to get some respite inside. Also let them restock buildings. They literally have sacrificed a secondary for this, let it be a thing. Cause you can get them back via death so it just encourages you too build die then start playing..... It's just kinda dumb.....

[@GrapeReason]

Absolutely agree. The entire footman class all having medkits isn't great, and I would love to see more varied abilities, even further from what we already have. For instance, I would love if engineer got some kind of placeable ballista or something that really went with their "we fortify this area" theme.

[@samfish2550]

@@GrapeReason true. Though I would rather see something more like potentially being able to repair or reenforce your buildings to make them tankier. Something less damage based, since archers tend to swarm to your walls. If anything I'd like to see 2 walls and 2 traps, Even if you are nerfed to only 2 buildings at a time. If you wanted to push it then maybe even three of each. Especially bear traps since they are very one and done.

[@samfish2550]

If I had to guess why they all have med kits it's probably because they charge their alt by healing but that could be changed. Like engi charging from either damage taken/delt by your buildings and/or the damage you deal to buildings.

@@GrapeReason wouldn't mind the ability to be turning into a bush or a barrel lol. Wouldn't even be that op since all the other abilities are so so much better

[@teutoncross3817]

Ambusher is a ton of fun. Taught me how to properly counter/riposte and stay alive since all you have are secondaries.

I always end up Jon Snow as well, they kill me and I come right back for revenge.

Archer isn't fun for you because you're on console. As an Archer main, i enjoy helping my team by sniping other archers/ low health enemies. I also enjoy people rushing me thinking i don't know how to melee and i completely destroy them in a melee fight.

[@cyrushansen6048]

I just got this and I think with horses now in play the plant the spear might just have a use now. Is it practical no is it funny as hell to get a kill with hell yes.

[@lucask9651]

Alright lol I appreciate the bad joke at the start! Good video, only feedback i would offer is when you can, maybe consider investing into better Audio equipment?

[@GrapeReason]

Can't disagree with the critique hahaha. The Arctic 7 headset mic was not cutting it but the Elgato wave-3 didn't arrive in time to record the audio. Next video, the premiere of the upgraded audio setup!

I'll bypass 20 people just so I can vanguard hammer charge a couple of archers with 1 hit lol....Hate those bastards

[@sillylittlemonkey7130]

Just use the shovel. If you use anything else you might as well be throwing air at the enemy.

[@GrapeReason]

The Shovel Knight video is coming. It's so strong, and we missed out on it's power in the beta. We thought we would use "you have to shovel" as a joke punishment class when we rage and it was surprisingly powerful.

[@teutoncross3817]

I really like using the sledgehammer. I was surprised to find out how good it was. Also, creating a funnel with the barricades and putting a bear trap at the end of it is fun. Almost everyone gets caught by it.

[@GrapeReason]

Not sure if you're describing your experience or mine lol. Either way, yes, this.

[@tyluild]

Hey I saw you post about this video on a Reddit post that you recorded natively via your PS5. Can I ask how you then edited the video like is there a way to get the PS5 video into a USB or something and then move that to a PC also with the mic is that a headset or a separate mic into the Ps5 sorry for all these questions just planning on starting YT

[@GrapeReason]

No problem, so I used the Share button on PS5 (and you can set record length or record the last X minutes. Then you can either use your PS5 mic to record audio and do simple edits in Sony's editor app (which is not bad, but has serious limitations) or copy it to a USB drive and do the editing on your PC with voice over recorded on your PC. Personally, I prefer to edit in Davinci Resolve. It's free and has amazing features while being easy to learn.

[@tyluild]

@@GrapeReason wow thank you so much for replying! That means a heck of a lot. I was trying to decide whether to get a laptop and external capture card linking that all up to the PS5. But first I'll try and see what it's like recording with a USB mic or 3.5mm mic connected to the PS5. If I'm not happy with that then yeah I'll record voice directly to a laptop but still just record the gameplay with share

[@GrapeReason]

@@tyluild I would definitely recommend recording audio on PC just because you can set up equalizer settings and filters and make your audio sound better. I know a lot of comments on this video mentioned the audio being low quality (and I agree), but the video quality from recording with the share button is very good.

[@tyluild]

@@GrapeReason thank you big time for your help. It's wild I literally stream my PC games but I never thought something so simple for the PS4 rather than always moving it from my living room tv to my PC area. That's hassle every time, but now I know of the laptop for audio but share record option, thank you I feel foolish for never thinking of it before. I'll probably record the audio with Adobe audition then edit it all with DaVinci or Premier pro.

[@favlam1408]

ok but archer is pretty darn fun if I manage to hit the enemy, but it's the least fun if I keep hitting my teammates.

Yeah Im really bad at archer but it's fun sometimes.
