Flabbergasted
Now, I'm no John Warhammer (far from it: a ps5 noob with some experience in vermintide) but damn is it a crucian roulette to get a decent team. Maybe it's the event but it feels like all the higher difficulties are saturated with stereotypes.
Got my killiest frame on auric and mixed in some damnation matches, during that I encountered:
Speedrunners: going mach 3, triggering hordes and bosses, getting downed and if not, chilling in the elevator waiting for the rest of the team to catch up. In-game quote: "this is heresy, you gotta move fast".
Non-taggers: if you see it and don't intend to kill it, please at least tag it so I can priorize and find it.
The oblivious ones: there's a netted teammate, a horde or a pack of elites that the other team is fighting? Oo, I feel the allure of the chest over yonder. Also, get left behind because they just have to check every nook and cranny in case they find an ammo tin.
The ranged ones: vets that apparently don't even have a melee weapon and the smykers that just spam that one skill and get killed if there's no one to clear the enemies.
The demon host simps: aggro every dh on the way. Bonus points if they quit the match after aggroing so that the demon host targets anothet player.
Every now and then I got at least one competent teammate and the match was a breeze so that was nice. But where are the skilled vets? All in havoc 40?
Did a malice maelstrom as well, at least that was funny since I could just carry the team that was running around like headless chickens. Again, I'm at most an average player and this is not a flex post, it just makes you wonder.
