Also told people the same and they were like "oh that is sucha edge case, death pact gives you unlimited downs and vulture give free bars!" The main difference is that infernal can basically go "full online" within the first 5-10 min of match, bc you can trait refund into bloodless and blazeborne is only one pledge mark. Whereas Death pact needs to accru 6 pledge marks to stack relentless WITHOUT getting downed inbetween. And Death Pact is only really affecting a little bc if you get burned the extra relentless doesn't do anything for you.
I never thought solo necro was op but this looks totally busted in the event. No other counterplay than bring firebombs and wait for a long time if he has all the needed traits and antidote... Every event they have some trait that eliminates the rules of the game like death cheat or even instinct but this is just too much man.
i dont think necro is super op but it is strong and needs a nerf. mabey you loose an extra health chunk when you revive. with this build tho it is deffinatly broken.
@@Bayar1010 You don't need to be skilled to abuse this, my guy. Infernal on a solo player with necro flat out makes extremely difficult to get taken out of the game, and also gives you crazy comeback potential.
I still think adding necro self res was a mistake, bad players use it with snipers so that you can't possibly prevent the self revive and good players can use it like this normally if you down someone in the middle of an open space you just need to make sure no one is around, because just sitting there aiming at the corpse will get you shot by their teammate but if they happen to be a solo the correct counterplay is the exact opposite, and you can't really know if it is a party or a solo in most cases
still not as op as death cheat was tbh, because you need to build up to this combo instead of permanently having the same full trait setup for the whole event
Acolyte trait in Demented block is pretty weak. You need to gain 30 marks(or to kill player) and then get a trait from caravan to have ability to gain traits from the clue. The clue can dissapear when boss is banished and you dont need that in next game because you can choose traits in lobby. Compare to first traits in other block, well, demented sucks really bad
Really hope they change the burning while downed. Love staring at solo snipers body and know if i move away im going to get sniped. There is no way around it anymore unless you carry multiple firebombs and spend 8 minutes watching the body.
@@TheDorisableThat would make it suck as ots too specific, they should simply remove the bleed immunity or make it to where you get a bar back when you get a kill not a restoration.
@@noshowerforweeks797 there is a pact for this but it only gives one bar back. You still have to get that loot of the hunter unlike a kill from across the map that heals for everything instantly.
I'm honestly not a fan of all these event perks, they go too far at this point. Basically makes alot of the special ammo types & certain play styles useless.
The game is really benefiting solo streamers at the moment, but i hate this. Solos pop up and kill me after dying enough as it is, let alone with the changes.
I really love how they’re toying with more ways to restore lost health. Infernal is broken fosho lol but real fun. Im looking forward to whatever permanent restore mechanic they add.
If you don't see them burning check if you can take their guns, burn out will be done if you can't pick them up, and this is why I'm the team mate that carries the wire bombs and trip mines so I know your not standing up easy.
I bought the battle pass but I don't even want to play anymore. I liked this game for he slow rates of fire and long gun fights with high stakes... that's all gone.
This is why for me it breaks a lot of things. As solo player etc. you feel like your the king of the hill. But for others it sucks and make almost every special ammo useless. Also the fact to getting the camper friends position when burning his friend will not work anymore if everyone plays the OP Pact in my opinion. For balancing this is the badest thing they have done so far in an event.
Necro needs to be a burn trait. Either that or is should only be usable once or twice max. I hate blowing people's heads of with a shotgun only to see them reform and get up like nothing happened. We are supposed to be fighting other hunters out here, not resident evil regenerators.
It’s so tough to know if anybody is dead. In a compound fight against a team of three and a solo, it’s already nearly impossible to tell who’s going to John Cena back to life and smack me upside the head while I’m dealing with the others, let alone with this garbagio.
I don't see necro as a problem at all here. It is easy to burn out or keep a solo dead under normal circumstances. For a regular solo to survive a firebomb/concertina combo, they need to have 3 traits which cost 9 points together. The problem is with the infernal pact as this video showcases. It turns solos from an equipment check into undead pains in the ass.
Man I called it. I knew Infernal pact was gonna be OP after I saw your update 1.14 video. It allows you to ignore most custom ammo with a poison syringe. Why even bring custom ammo anymore when you will be disadvantaged fighting against infernal players and you will have a hard time finding ammo. Meta is probably gonna shift to infernal pact and normal ammo. Also pre-patch Vetterli FMJ with Iron Sharpshooter was always my favourite loadout. Cyclone is making it a lot better now. I hope they don't nerf medium FMJ because of the Cyclone
Why do they always make the pacts so unbalanced? Even the zombies in this game dies and don't come back, but the solos... they never die, thiese traits have no place in this game.
i immediately thought it would be the best pact, but holy moly i had no idea it would be so OP dont think the devs will nerf it. last event they didnt do anything either, or did they? gonna be some interesting two months i guess -.-
The only thing that breaks this pact is the possibility of self-resurrection. If previously you had to be paranoid over the corpse of every solo player, now paranoia will reach a new level. I hope the developer will add a mechanic for banishing solo players from the game like bosses, followed by a ban for a week thanks rakta for the week of solo infernals p.s. sarcasm. no thanks rakta
i feel like it is just objectively better to play solo than ever play in a team any more especially how value inferno is. Think about it you could be mixed 3 times in a row get 1 lucky shot off bam you are full healed and you cant be burned it just caters to soloplay.
what do you think about new veterli with fast fire rate? doesnt it change the gameplay a bit? i mean its not like old hunt anymore with that much fast firerate guns in it...
It looks strong, but it really isn't much better than the Officer Carbine. It's like 4x the price, holds 3 less bullets, and has higher recoil. You trade a lot for the extra lethality and range.
@gorecomplex you had enough money for a ps5. Just save up that same amount of *GUAP* and buy a pc. Or get 1000 and get a great prebuild from build redux; easy day.
As someone who does play a fair amount of solo with necro, yeah even I can't defend how busted this is. I honestly don't even pick infernal while playing solo cause of how ridiculous it is.
Hey Guys i got a question that has nothing to do with the video, How can i get mama maye in this game? It says i need to do some quests to unlock it but i don't have any quest unlocked for her yet?
are premade duo's allowed to get a random third now? because i got matched with 2 chinese players that teamkilled me and revived me over and over again and its the second time it has happened now.
Me who knows nothing about Hunt: Showdown besides pew pew: I have no idea what's going on, even though I've watched 30+ hours of content 22:58 most beautiful rain I've seen in any game, besides Red Dead Redemption 2.
Solo revive was not realy op but just fucking annoying. But now with the event traits its just the worst idea that crytek has had in a long ass time. How fun is it when people can just stand up over and over again and you cant realy do anything about it
@@RachtaZ I'm almost positive. I hadn't died yet and was at full health fighting the butcher when it happened. It burned till I was about at 15 hp on the last big bar and then revived so I wouldn't die.
Nor fire ammo/dragon breath/fire bolts. Nor poison ammo/bolts. And you can't know if it will work till you hit enemy. So yeah, all special ammo you can take is fmj and HV. Horrible experience tbh.
I got into hunt late and out tons of hours into it. Took a break. Everytime I tried to come back some event was going that changed how the game played. Now this one.. Ha.. What a joke. No actual player skill required to be a god.
my favorite part is that teams now have to wait even longer wasting their own time waiting for you to burn out instead of just moving on and continuing to play. The reddit threads bitching about being "forced" into watching solo bodies are really popping off. Me? i just move on and fight them again later if they decide to pursue. More PvP = more fun
Forgot to mention that bulwark got buffed and is still only 2 points!....making you able to tank explosives, bomblance, and flash. Adding stuff like infernal pact, another rapid fire weapon and things like solo nerco still in the game has me sad for the state of hunt. You play a certain kit that cost extra in game currency and people have hard counters make it basically worthless. The better players will maintain the pact creating a even greater skill gap than already getting an mmr squish or going in solo. Now a solo player has mmr squish, 5-8+ lives, cant be burned or bled. Its just lame and not fun.
yeah infernal ist the most op the other pacts cant compore they dont come even lose i dont know why a certain youtuber with crazy opinions about weapons is saying its the most balanced pacts we ever had... not at all... it the most unbalanced pacts we ever had... death cheat is a jake against this
Still people say that it's balanced. This is so busted on all levels, had fun trying it but it really feels like playing on easy mode with light cheats.
It is technically. It makes it easier for the mew players. Or people who Maybe don't like how hard-core the game is during non events. I mean it's not that hard-core compared to what it was before but still. So I'm pretty sure alot of these traits that remove the core mechanics are gonna stick Around to keep the player numbers up you know
Rampage even works when you are downed. If they are killed by your traps when u are down you have full HP when you self res… th-cam.com/video/yWK0EJC9ntI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=9APKTCLQQ_HUZdRi
imagine choke bombs dealt dmg to you if you are blazeborn
Good idea
yep , maybe act as a poison
Excellent idea for a balance.
missed opportunity
That actually is a really smart idea
I feel like each pact should have their own single status immunity not one with all.
there is not one for all. it's only fire ur immuned 2
you cant bleed aswell, soooo, and with a poison shot youre basically immune to 3 things@@kohl4life
I got flamed on Reddit for saying that the Infernal pact is by far the best pact. I don't understand how they weren't seeing this.
Yes i felt the same even from the first reveal, this one is going to be enormously popular.
I actually like death pact myself.
Also told people the same and they were like "oh that is sucha edge case, death pact gives you unlimited downs and vulture give free bars!"

death pact is quite op too, if u got lucky enough to stack all 3 percs and u solo, u can revive yourself 7 fucking times
i dont think necro is super op but it is strong and needs a nerf. mabey you loose an extra health chunk when you revive. with this build tho it is deffinatly broken.

Pact is way too OP, full restoration of bars "on kill" is too powerful, sure keep it but maybe only when you loot the hunter.
there is already a Pact for that.
or maybe restoration when killed with fire damage
imho, just one or two bars restoration would do.

Agreed. I don't know who is coming up with these but they need to tone it down.

They could've just made infernal heal 50 on kill and it would've still been so good, but not toxic.
@ 14:46 that was such a slick play. one of your best i've seen.
The game is really benefiting solo streamers at the moment, but i hate this. Solos pop up and kill me after dying enough as it is, let alone with the changes.
I love shooting a dragon's breath bolt down at my feet in between gun fights just as a last resort regen.
I really love how they’re toying with more ways to restore lost health. Infernal is broken fosho lol but real fun. Im looking forward to whatever permanent restore mechanic they add.
It's not fun to sit for over 5 minutes and watch a body cuz they can just revive themselves and cant be put on fire.
@@iamnizorro9781 you dont have to babysit the body, simply move on.
The restoration on kill perk reminds me of the Kunai from TF2. Restoring kills off backstab, and can lead to many chain stabs in a life
Good with shotguns too
as soon i saw the official stream i knew this combo was op, but god forbids crytek to have more than 2 brain cells and predict this.
If you don't see them burning check if you can take their guns, burn out will be done if you can't pick them up, and this is why I'm the team mate that carries the wire bombs and trip mines so I know your not standing up easy.

it sounds like they didnt think this through...
Why they do this. Might as well remove the main objective from the game.
will a hunter body stop burning when the person disconnects?
or will it continue as if it were burning the bars?
It will continue burning

They're nearly impossible to kill now. It's just stupid. It takes away the excitement of solo play.
Will this be nerfed
What skin is in the image of the intro
If someone traps you after being with concertina trip mines what happens? Does the bleed stop?
running into the wires still damages you and resets the bleed timer, but once you get out of the wires or they all break the bleed will stop
Gg for guys who are to drunk to play and too sober to watch as me XD Btw. Amazing plays as always
is there something like a half banish as well ;)
we have a new uppercut now?
Yeah can confirm this build is just pure easy mode on , i tried shotgun it's more easier that way got a hunter 50 easy
Fun, but as a complete knob i don't think i have the skill to pull off any solo stunts
I came back from dinner and i was like... Whaaa still the same fight? Then i realized i wasn't watching twitch xD
Solo revive was not realy op but just fucking annoying. But now with the event traits its just the worst idea that crytek has had in a long ass time.

death cheat is a jake against this
I encounter so many bushwookies in this event, i dont get any kills and just die 😂 so not op for me xD
