OK I need a melee crit to extract seeds

Quinneapolis

@quinn2win

Wed, Jul 6, 2022 11:45 PM

is there any way to force that

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Wed, Jul 6, 2022 11:46 PM

If you stun someone your next attack is automatically a crit

how do I stun people

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Wed, Jul 6, 2022 11:46 PM

Every attack does 1 stun damage, which you can track by the skull icon on the left of their health bar

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Wed, Jul 6, 2022 11:47 PM

Also various other effects increase stun

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Wed, Jul 6, 2022 11:47 PM

some grenades, some powers

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Wed, Jul 6, 2022 11:47 PM

It's pretty hard to stun people honestly because stunning people is REALLY GOOD

Quinneapolis

@quinn2win

Wed, Jul 6, 2022 11:47 PM

how do I read the stun icon

Quinneapolis

@quinn2win

Wed, Jul 6, 2022 11:47 PM

it's a skull with a line through it and attacking didn't change that

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Wed, Jul 6, 2022 11:47 PM

Apothecaries have a promotion upgrade, I think, that lets them always extract seeds with their melee attack

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Wed, Jul 6, 2022 11:48 PM

And there's a servo skull that extracts seeds

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Wed, Jul 6, 2022 11:48 PM

uh

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Wed, Jul 6, 2022 11:48 PM

not sure

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Wed, Jul 6, 2022 11:48 PM

attacks SHOULD change it

what does this say about the stun state

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Wed, Jul 6, 2022 11:49 PM

oh that looks weird

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Wed, Jul 6, 2022 11:49 PM

I'm not sure

apothecary why do you not have any healing moves

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Thu, Jul 7, 2022 12:21 AM

What melee weapon does he have?

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Thu, Jul 7, 2022 12:22 AM

The healing move is tied to the Narthecium, which is a special melee weapon only Apothecaries can use

Quinneapolis

@quinn2win

Thu, Jul 7, 2022 12:23 AM

a force sword, apparently

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Thu, Jul 7, 2022 12:23 AM

there's your problem

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Thu, Jul 7, 2022 12:24 AM

I save all my fancy bolt guns for my apothecaries because their melee power is pretty weak

Thu, Jul 7, 2022 12:28 AM

I think that version of the stun icon means that unit can't be stunned (some big/special enemy types are passively immune, others can get a buff from casters that prevents stun)

magnet

@magnetDW

Thu, Jul 7, 2022 12:31 AM

also: 1 is the default amount of stun for most attacks but there are various weapons and powers that can apply more stun at once or don't do any

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Thu, Jul 7, 2022 12:32 AM

If you melee attack a stunned guy you get better than a crit, actually

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Thu, Jul 7, 2022 12:32 AM

Since you can Execute them

Gabiluzbad

@Overbringer

Thu, Jul 7, 2022 12:33 AM

which is ABSURDLY good if you can pull it off

magnet

@magnetDW

Thu, Jul 7, 2022 12:35 AM

yeah Execute is an instakill that gives +1 AP to all your mans

I had a hammer by endgame that did 5 Stun on its Force Strike so the guy I gave it to could just run around turning every regular plague marine that spawned into a chain of AP pinatas
