Behemoth WHEN edition

http://evolve.wikia.com/wiki/Evolve_Wiki

>What is Evolve (stage 2)?
Evolve uses an asymmetrical structure where five players, four playing as hunters and one as the monster, battle against each other in an industrialized alien planet called Shear.
Stage 2 is the transition to Free To Play + a lot of gameplay changes.

>I heard the game was dead?
It was (at least on PC). 100-200 players and little to no updates from the developers. If F2P can bring it back is unknown, but as of right now 18k people are playing it.

>Should I "get" it?
It's free. 18GB. Download and test it out.

>F2P Model?
Copy paste:

Every week, four hunters (one of each class) and one monster will be in the free rotation. There are currently 24 Hunters and 7 Monsters in total, though some are variations of others. By playing the character tutorials, you unlock one hunter (Markov) and one monster (The Goliath) to keep forever.

Additional monsters, hunters, perks, and skins are unlocked by earning silver keys. Silver keys are earned by playing the game, leveling up, or getting login bonuses. Currently you can't actually buy silver keys, presumably so they can test the unlock rate, but that's coming later.

There is also a monthly login bonus punch card. You get one punch for each day you log in. Beyond silver keys, this can directly award new Hunters and Skins.

>Microtransation?
None as of yet.

This game some actual fucking tutorials and tooltips, and if possible a testmap.

Just someplace where you can actually test things you have to compare them, explore the maps to learn the spots of dangerous shit, try out various things on a dummies, practice your jetpack traverse, use your skill to see how effective they are ect., Instead of HERE'S THE FREE MERC OF YOUR ASSIGNED CLASS.

This is based off of overall pick viability. Some hunters obviously do extremely well against some monsters, and extremely bad against others.

I havent seen a single regular kraken

Assault:
1.Hyde

Trapper:
1. Griffin

3. Abe
4. Maggie/Jack

Don't worry about >>148085903

Literally just some guy who bought Wraith to farm keys and is upset that the devs actually realized their fuck up and are going in for the nerf ASAP

The only monster that is properly balanced is Meteor Goliath. Goliath is UP, Gorgon is pushing it because of its mobility, Kraken and Elder is out here, Wraith is unplayable

>>148085658
for medic it's Val and Rogue Val. Caira if you can aim
>>
>>148086868

Monster isn't fucking hard

Go feed on wildlife until you get your shield

Focus your abilities on one person to get them down, preferably the Medic or Support

If the Trapper is pooning you, you're going to be in trouble. I recommend just focusing him down and hoping he's not good at confrontation. Just don't half ass it, he can still poon your ass until he's down

Monsters are OP in general currently, so shouldn't be a problem
>>
>>148086441
They stay out of the dome to get ready to place a respawn beacon if you die, the monster can't get to it then to destroy it.
By doing this those EMET players are choosing not to use their healing buoys instead for most of a fight but the stay outside strat can actually be the better one if the monster is reliably destroy the buoys before you can even start healing. Healing Burst might go through the bubble but someone would have to confirm that for me.
>>
>>148086989
I find Caira to be relaxing. Spam heal, switch, spam napalm, go to 1 repeat!
>>
>>148087123
Isn't it pointless since the dome comes down if two people get downed?

What makes Parnell so bad? I did figure he was neato until I saw the whole "Take double damage just to get a higher fire-rate" thing, seemed like a bad idea.

On a side note, the new fucking defense metrix for the assault sucks so much shit
>>
>>148087273
They're usually banking on teammates being braindead with that strategy so in theory its better to put it down somewhere outside where the monster potentially has no idea where you are so you don't die before your teammates drop back in.
As an EMET main I don't personally exercise that strategy and the only way I'd even consider it is if we were stuck in a wide open flat arena with nothing to hide the beacon behind. Otherwise I'd be in there doing the solid damage EMET has and spam Healing Burst because even if the Monster keeps fucking up your Buoy's EMET's Healing Burst CD is incredibly low for that reason.

>>
Newfag here, loved the vampirism maps in WC3, want to try Evolve out.

What tips can you give me?
>>
>>148088029

It's basically useless for what the Assault is supposed to do, which is tanking hits when you're getting focused by the monster

Not only are you no longer invincible, but you still get knocked around like you are on an ice skate

Basically the only use is to weather the most damaging ability the monster has and hope he switches focus for some reason, which he simply won't because he now has the opportunity to knock out the damage dealer
>>
>>148085658
Gorgon best?

Why ? This shit deal 0 dmg unless you get lvl 3

stupid space bar but 0 dmg
>>
>>148088176
dont be discouraged if you lose as monster, just practice
>>
>>148088256
Oh man, that does suck pretty hard then.

Any tips for each of the assault classes? Also, does Lennox's ground pound benefit from her Plasma Lance's combo booster?
>>
>bought gorgon
>lost 3 in a row
what the fuck
Am i that bad
Also how do I aim with spider
Just shoot into target or it doesnt matter?
>>
>>148088113
This is 4chan.
>>
>>148088465

I'd say that as Assault your main role is still to get up the monster's ass and pound his shit with your most damaging gun

He'll likely try to focus whoever is not you, since Medic and Support undo his damage and Trapper can tether his ass still

Otherwise, just use your most damaging gun always, if the monster is too far away use your jetpack aggressively to dash into it

Not too sure about Lennox, but sadly Lennox is a mid-tier choice. If your team doesn't heal and shield properly or they abandon the Medic they are in trouble quickly

>>148088584

Drop it at your feet and let it do the rest, remember to acid spit whoever gets caught

Cabot seems great, but his abilities sound like they'll only work well if you either have a friend playing Assault, or you have a really well coordinated team.

Can't currently decide between playing Assault or Support. Bad assaults mean the monster never dies, but a bad support means the medic will never be able to heal the team quick enough to keep them alive.
>>
>>148087947
I know, faggot I've played long before he was released. That game was so monumentally retarded that we really shouldn't have won. Our medic was utter trash and our Bucket right off the bat popped his ability charger or whatever it is. I put down plenty of damage but without the medic I died. Crow did a good job tracking, but the fact that the goliath flailed at the relay like a retard while he was being raped was stupid.

Whatever, I won.

why do some monsters and hunters have hard counters if there's no pick order or bans?

are you just supposed to hope you get lucky and counter them?

I've been playing a LOT as EMET

So far my experience and tips are:

>Buoys are good against monsters who can't easily destroy them with collateral damage (Goliath, M Goliath, Gorgon,Wraith to some extent)
>Your healing burst comes out of EVERY buoy, even if it's mid-air
>For that reason you will be spamming buoys and healing burst until the situation stabilizes, two or three buoys will stick eventually and that's HUGE, only then you can take out your finger and pew pew
>Once the fight starts going south (2 guys dead) it's better to run away and use the beacon
>Against monsters who destroy your buoys by existing (Kraken, E Kraken, Behemoth) it's actually viable to just sit outside the dome and use rez beacons

I use sneak as much as possible, I use my jumps to get around quickly but always leave at least one in case I need to bolt. I'm always found every few seconds and rarely get to evolve. I don't know if it's that damned planet scanner or what.

And then when I'm a hunter, my team is super incompetent every time, and never uses it.

all-sneak is no longer viable, the new game balance is stage 1 = stage 2, stage 2 = stage 3, and stage 3 is just still stage 3.
you don't have to evade early, you just run and eat and run and eat and run until you skirmish a bit and continue the pattern.

the real tragedy is planet tracker made jack's survey satellite redundant.

I'd rather have three utilities completely lock down the monster while the Assault dicks them until their anus bleeds rather than have two utilities a team wipe

Plus, if you have a semi competent Val, she will usually get snipe shots in while Griffin harpoons the monster in place and Hank tries to place a quick bombardment

"Three Utility One Damage Dealer" clearly shows how powerful it is when you come up against braindead monsters whose only strategy is to focus down the Medic or Assault until he dies

The only reason to play Tech Support Hank is that his shield doesn't deplete and stacks much higher, which means everyone can jump into the fight with a huge shield buffer than you can freely replenish with your shield burst

But regular Hank is more powerful if you know exactly how to handle your shield gen cooldowns and your Medic is worth anything, because you get more shield out of the deal for the one person getting focused

Nothing, they are most likely leveling up their friend

Literally leave and find another game

>>148103912

Generally Gorgon can easily Flee Till 2 if you're not retarded and don't jump straight into the hunters

As for engaging the hunters, rush the first person to pop the arena, spider and acid them, then swipe them down, should down them

Use your traversals plentifully, throw spider mines whenever ready. Dump webs when you have multiple hunters bunched up or someone is evading your acid

Acid also doubles as a death zone, so use it on surfaces hunters can't easily break of off, like lower surfaces

>>148104073
>>148104225

The Sound Sensors are on the higher ends of monster tracking tools, but they're not THAT powerful in and out of themselves

However, if you're smart and plant them in such a fashion that they cross the map (line from north to south, or NW to SE, etc), you are guaranteed to never get massively juked by the monster

If he pops one in an arena and your goal was hiding to confuse the hunters, you're also going to be in trouble soon

As for the Harpoon, it's pretty much the selling point, use it 24/7, get behind the monster and opposite to your Support and Medic, stay grounded. Once the monster decides he's had enough and goes for you, use your four jetpack charges to make him waste dozens of seconds
