Dauntless Dev Tracker

Hello, I'd like to clarify a few things.

  1. We investigate 100% of player made reports, even well known top players that post runs publicly and are reported repeatedly. This is to keep the process unbiased and keep play fair. We acknowledge it's possible for a top player to start cheating.
  2. We have had a very aggressive policy for at least a few years to the point it went from receiving player reports almost weekly, to next to never now. We also hit a lot of people that wouldn't normally be noticed by players.
  3. This is actually pretty rare now because we've been so aggressive in hitting them most just don't try anymore.
  4. We permanently ban first offenses, which probably helps contribute to number 3.

As long as it's not using a 3rd party program this is correct! In this case, we're happy with where it's at currently, but please do report exploits in general. Especially ones that can be used in competitive modes.

The primary goal of a game is to have fun without impacting others negatively. Hitting for 23 million in moderation is indeed fun.

Should be resolved now, reload Ramsgate via a different map or re-opening the game and it should work. Thanks for the heads up!

The more parts you break the more chances there are for epic stuff to drop. Try to break as many parts as you can before killing.

Full Tempest build should do the trick, but even then it hits so hard that you won't break more than 3 parts if used correctly.

Another thing you could do is freeze the behemoth, making it slower (so it's easier to target parts) using Pangar lantern and Frost weapons (if you don't have Urska legendary yet)

People recommend against part damage builds as it doesn't increase core damage and as a result takes slots that could otherwise increase core damage. But in cases like this, sometimes you want less core damage to kill slower and break more parts. So could try that too.

One thing I'd note is that cells can be added to and removed from your gear freely, so don't be afraid to mess up, you wont lose the cells by adding and removing repeatedly like many other games.

Thank you for the feedback, I've forwarded this to the team!

By disabling other programs potentially interfering you can see if the game runs smoothly. If it does, then you start switching back on in groups one of two ways.

Either start with the ones you most likely think are the issue until it happens again, or the ones you least likely think are the issue until it happens again.

By doing this in phases you can narrow it down to a handful of programs, then from there down to a single program. Once narrowed down to a single program you can focus on troubleshooting with that program, or replacing/disabling it depending on the value it provides.

Usually you start with the ones you think aren't an issue and/or ones you value most so you can get things running normal again as quick as possible and go from there.

I've only used it on heroic escalations when I was first starting them and loaded near full defense. It worked for that purpose but I was getting smacked around a lot. It's one of the first defensive components I removed as I improved there but it DID work for that situation.

Thank you so much for the advice and I will consider if I really need it but if I do ok I'll be sure to not bother you. :)

Another note is meta tends to be glass cannon builds, so meta builds can be very difficult in Heroic Escalation unless you're really good. Consider building something a bit more defensive, and maxing out the escalation tree benefits is almost a must.

It should be at the very bottom of Escalation options. It's a once a week rotating thing rather than pick with the other elements.

Neither. It's best to just build core dmg, crit, and attack speed and learn to part focus. But sharpened is the lesser of 2 evils

I've used part damage over core when trying to farm more parts before killing the behemoth. If I have more core damage it means the behemoth will die faster when my goal is to get more parts before it dies. I used a repeater part damage build for Chronovore wings.

Congrats! A neat trick when disabled by things like the abduction ray (I don't know the actual name) is Koshai's bloom (lantern active) can escape them.

I love these! They look less intimidating; lemme grab my pike.

If it's Afterburner, updating the software to the latest version should fix it too. This is caused by their low-level hardware access interface when enabled in older versions.
