Dauntless |OT| Go on an Epic Monster Hunt
- Thread starter Coolduderedux
- Start date
At what point should I be focusing on a proper 'build? At the moment(level 9) I am just powering up things when I can and using whatever cells I have, not really paying too much attention.
On the subject of builds. I assume you are at the mercy of RNG for getting the cells required? Unless i'm missing some other way to get specific ones.

0.8.1 yo
Damage is priority. If you are going for targetted breaks, the 'marksman' part for repeaters is excellent at this. Otherwise just focus attacks.
Chain Blades with flat part and whirly twirly is fine.
Just get a main set of gear with decent bonuses (Molten,Ragehunter,conduit,predator,etc.) to +6 and don't sweat it too much. When you get stuck on something you'll know what you need to upgrade for bonuses against bosses and then just learn them.
Cells have an exchange formula on the MiddleMan:
Code:
Buy/Salvage:
+3: Cost 160 dust | Salvage 40 dust
+2: Cost 80 dust | Salvage 20 dust
+1: Cost N/A | Salvage 10 dust
Combine/Exchange
Same cell + Same cell = That cell 1 higher
Same slot(icon) + Same slot = Random cell for that slot 1 higher
Different slot + Different slot = Random cell 1 higher
Using +1 cells to make a +2 takes 22 hours
+2 cells to make a +3 takes 46 hours
using a +3 cell + rams takes 70 hours to randomize it (random of same slot type)
You want a refund for a free game?
Utterly unplayable is hyperbole.
I have 50 hours into this game and maybe a handful of bugs I've encountered.
What is it that you don't understand? For the past 15h or so, I've had SEVERAL, as in MULTIPLE, as in 15+ bugs where I'VE HAD TO RESTART THE GAME in order to PROGRESS.
In what fucking world is THAT hyperbole?
I have had one or two crashed on 1X, including one that just shut the system down with now warning.
What you had sounds super annoying. PC version? The devs seem fairly quick to jump on bugs but it still does not excuse having so many early issues. It's been in testing for a while now.
Are you referring to the axe bug? That's not a hard block on progress. It's obviously a critical big that needs to be addressed, but it's not blocking progress unless you've mastered every other weapon.
Mannn patrol boosts SUCK. They only apply to the daily bonus patrols, lol. Oh well, I'm actually glad because it means the free boost they give out didn't do its job in getting me interested to ever drop money on them.
Also, when a monster part breaks and it drops a piece of loot, does it HAVE to be picked up or will that automatically be "looted" after the behemoth is killed?

It will be automatically collected end of hunt, don't worry if you don't pick them all up.
You know you can just not play the game if it's so bad right?
I've had my axe disappear a few times when chucking it but I've also had it reappear instantly when I do dumb shit like throw it off a cliff. At worst you gotta wait 45 seconds for it to come back. Oh noes.....
just fought my first Scorchstone Hellion and this is were i draw the line. This is unplayable on the base PS4.
If I'm not mistaken, you also get cores as you progress through the Elite Hunt Pass tier rewards, they just aren't rewarded on a per Hunt basis.
Patch
NEW TO DAUNTLESS
KNOWN ISSUES
NEW TO DAUNTLESS
- Third dye region. Slayers now have access to a third dye region on nearly all armours, and can use up to three dyes to customize each piece. Overall dye-able surface area has increased as well. Plus: You can now dye all of your equipped armour at once! Show us your new look with #FashionSlayer.
- Bug reporting. Slayers can now report bugs through the in-game Help submenu. Go to the Main Menu, select Help, and choose Report a Bug to gain access to the form. The more detail you can provide, the more it will help us.
- Huntboard details. Behemoth strengths and weaknesses are now viewable from the hunt board. This should help Slayers better plan and prepare for hunts.
- Improved performance for Charrogg, Hellion, Valomyr, and Rezakiri. Before you ask: This is not the "final" performance improvement for these Behemoths. We will continue to work to improve this going forward.
- Made multiple optimizations to VFX and Behemoths to make them less resource-intensive. This should lead to improved performance on hunts.
- Added a shimmer to "invisible" Kharabaks. They should now be a little easier to see when enraged.
- Introduced fixes for the most common crashes that players were running into on all platforms.
- Cancel Matchmaking and Skip Matchmaking should now work as intended.
- Fixed a bug where changing your lantern on the airship could cause its UI to disappear during the following hunt.
- The Middleman will now show the correct price for (a) unlocking new cell slots and (b) speeding up cooks.
- Fixed a bug where Slayers could get stuck in the Hunt Pass screen.
- Fixed a bug where some Slayers could see and craft the previous (pre-0.8.0) versions of Moonreaver Shrike weapons.
- Using Aetherslam will no longer execute the hammer's standing blast or incorrectly place a single-ammo Landbreaker.
- Molten Edict (hammer) will now correctly and consistently spawn its fireball again.
- Slayers who have their system language set to Polish should no longer experience Dauntless in Portuguese. It will now be in English.
- Fixed a bug where players couldn't equip the Death's Head or Sky Anchor sigils.
- Fixed a bug where some TVs would clip the top corners of the HUD depending on overscan settings. (You should now be able to see your compass.)
- Fixed a bug where opening the Move List on the airship could cause it get stuck, remaining on the screen for the duration of the hunt.
- Held actions (e.g. gathering, healing at aether vents) should now correctly complete when their meters are filled. This aether vent no longer tastes of … fear.
- Fixed a bug where using a keyboard to navigate the store could result in the wrong item being selected.
- The Sylvan Barrel Mastery card will now display the correct icon and background.
- Interrupt indicators will now correctly display any time a Behemoth is in an interruptible state on all platforms.
- Fixed a bug where VFX could end prematurely and abruptly.
- Fixed a bug where Slayers could go invisible when browsing certain menus.
- Fixed a bug where the End of Hunt survey could get cut off if the player was mid-answer.
- Raised Razorwing Kharabak's health to its intended level. I feel my power returning …
- Fixed a bug where the Armour Crafting screen would show an incorrect resistance rating for armour level +11 and up.
- Added the ability for Slayers to customize their appearance from the Personality menu. But you can still make Gregario happy by visiting his mirror.
- Fixed a bug that caused the camera to reset into the sky when exiting the Hunt Pass screen.
- Fixed a bug that caused beards to show through certain helmets in the Loadout, Personality, and Store screens.
KNOWN ISSUES
- War Pike users may get stuck in the Piercing Fury combo finisher. We are digging into what the cause of this might be.
FINALLY!! this bugged me more than anything else (outside of random lag spikes). It also effected talking to NPCs as well I would have to walk away and initiate again for the action to complete...
I'm willing to bet they are well aware of it, even though it's not listed.
Can any console players report on the performance? I'm curious if it's gotten better.
Also third dye region is amazing. I can be fully edgelord now.

In my opinion, most notable bugs have been fixed or addressed besides the thrown axe bugs and I guess there's some pretty significant performance gains for consoles.
Definitely not the sexiest patch out there but these fixes are really solid.
Drop a link please? Sitting at train tracks but got to start driving again soon. Will need something to read when on line at the supermarket.
Improved but still drops pretty bad when a lot is going on for Hellion and his lava. Definitely a good start.
New bug now though. Empowered Captain's Grip is only giving me a buff not the team. I'll report it .
Finally no more dying because the holding X didn't work at aether vents.
EDIT: Phew, it was just for that hunt. Empowered Captain's Grip is good now,uffing team as intended. Still reported it though.

Empowered reload does that sometimes after patch, I find it happens more after changing barrels before the lobby screen
Is that new glam in the store? I would pay for that lookCan any console players report on the performance? I'm curious if it's gotten better.

Pants are from the Ramsgaurd Scout set. Coat is from the duster set and mask is from the current Hunt pass. The coat and pants are in frequent rotation.
You can also combine different cells of the same type for a randomized cell of the same type. It'll never come out as one of the 2 you fuse though. For example I think I took a medic and something else and ended up with a conduit +3.
Ey! They also changed one weekly challenge. Before the patch we had "do 10 fire patrols" with that I could do all 4 at the same time, had 2 already and now it's "kill 10 behemoths with hammer or spear". :(
I wouldnt have known they changed if you didnt say and i would have done more blaze lol
lol AFKs , as soon as I type in chat " everyone report AFK after hunt please" they start moving.
I've gotten disconnected from fights twice in a row now like 10 minutes in. Super irritating.
My first maxed weapon. I am proud.
How long did it take you to reach Behemoth Mastery 25? Can't upgrade past +10 at the moment.
You don't need Behemoth Mastery for upgrading weapons to max, just "weapon type" Mastery 19.
I'm Behemoth Mastery 21 at the moment.
For that you need sword mastery 19. It maxes out at 20. If you switch weapons off a lot it's pretty easy to reach. My behemoth level is 24. That level is associated with armors. Seems like the hardest one to level. Slayer is 35.
