List of Things You Can Survive as a Warlock Running a Max Armor Build with The Ram

  • Thorn 2 headshot (2 * 84 + 6 * 7 = 210 damage) or 3 body shot (3 * 56 + 6 * 7 = 210 damage)
  • TLW 3 body shot from the hip (3 * 68 = 204 damage)
  • two Praedyth's Revenge body shots (2 * 107 = 214 damage)
  • a shoulder charge (207 damage)
  • flux and magnetic grenade sticks (2 + 79 + 122 = 203 damage)
  • the Red Death two burst (6 * 36 = 216 damage)
  • a headshot from a super low impact sniper (217 damage)
  • a LDR impact class sniper headshot on revive (317 damage; I have tested all the others in this list except this last one, but given the video linked above and the way that revive overshields work, it seems very likely that a max armor warlock with the ram could indeed tank the 317 damage from an LDR headshot on revive)
  • Hawkmoon 3 body shot with one luck proc (2 * 64 + 88 = 216)

Love that set. Hope I can ever get the time to earn it. Not looking good, but I can dream.

yea i want to sit it out until they fix the balance.

makes me look like a hypocrite though after that speech earlier. well, i still don't think it's wise to ignore half of the game and then feel left out about it, but i can't blame anyone for avoiding crucible right now.

Wow.

Does the titans have anything at all going for them in crucible now? Shouldn't they have the best armour?

Counter super, lightning grenades, and flashbangs I guess.

Er, Strikers.

Defenders can be good in Control obviously.

I barely even feel like doing PoE either, though. My Elder Cipher is only halfway done and my desire to finish it is just not there. I think I need another break. IB sucked all the joy out of the game for me.

the Queenbreakers' Bow is a fun weapon if that's what you were going for.

I just did Exclusion Zone for about an hour and got...29k glimmer.

Going to have to do it again tomorrow to buy the last few items zzz.

Ken before this day is over someone will say they have the normal gatekeeper checkpoint. That's the best and fastest way to glimmer farm, plus it's fun with company. ;)

Do you have to hit people in the head to kill them in one hit? I was getting destroyed by a couple of people last night and it's hard to believe they were hitting me in the head every single time.
Click to expand...

yup. it's a fusion rifle, but you need to hit headshots. if you miss or hit the body, you're basically fucked unless you have some cover. it's also not a weapon you want to contest other snipers with.

can't blame the Fallen for being bad snipers. shit ain't easy.

i don't have the two perks unlocked yet though so maybe it's much easier with those. if nothing else, it's probably the only sniper you can fire consistently while airborne.

see, i'd love to run a Jewel and Bow combination, but going up against Thorns, Last Words and the pulse rifles just makes it impossible.

We almost got wrecked by a 29 in ToO using an unleveled Icebreaker. I thought levels were supposed to work like in IB =/

This is the last detailed info we got on PvP level advantages. From the look of it, he was 5 levels below and thus probably dealing ~70% damage? Ice Breaker has crazy good impact (a hair below Black Hammer / Spear) so headshots will probably still be enough.

On the other hand, he must have been squishy as hell :p

I capped from GK before IB dropped but between waiting for one to pop up and just running Exclusion Zone, I might as well do the latter. Will keep an eye out tomorrow for GK checkpoints while finishing up some IB stuff I guess.

So I guess I missed out on the Warlock RAM when Xur sold it the first week? Now I just have to wait for him to sell it again :/

It's a sniper rifle so it's still gonna hurt like hell.

Damn, maybe they were just excellent shots then. Hopefully I can get one soon so I can try it out myself. Still need to run PoE 35.

He sold helmet engrams the first week which is probably where most Rams are from.

I was happy with Nighthawk and didn't have enough motes to keep going for Ram lol.

Ah, never seen that before, thanks!
Yeah, 70% seems about right then. Last time I underestimate a 29.

Hey you're fun to play with but your sleep cycle is not faring so well. ;) Maybe you need a good day of sleep.

I hope it isn't because of me - I learn from you and don't want to be the boat anchor to your greatness. :( I enjoy watching you play and playing with you, plus the conversations are lots of fun.

:)

My Xbox One clan is recruiting. We played a lot during the Vault of Glass' heyday, but many of us took a break from the game shortly after The Dark Below came out. Now we're back and looking to build our numbers for all end-game content. Prison, Nightfall, Trials, Vault, Crota, the works. If you're an Xbox One player and would like to have a pool of people to group with and get stuff done, request permission to join at the link below and/or shoot me a PM. Thanks!

It really does. Only Her Benevolence is both higher AA and re rollable. The other snipers with better AA can't be rerolled and/or are no longer obtainable in game post expansion (Eye of Sol, Longbow, Prudence, PoE sniper and P&T)
