  1. I've gotten this crash a large number of times. The only intercepted crash log of use I have found is below. Maybe there's something of use in there. 2022-08-03 22:44:45.372: error: assertion: "D:\Perforce\Live\NAEU\v2\Code\Arena\Engine\Gr\GrInt.h", "ptr", line 207 (from 0x00007FF60775055D) 2022-08-03 22:44:45.382: error: intercepted hardware exception at "C:\WINDOWS\System32\KERNELBASE.dll +0x0000000000034FD9" thread 21996 2022-08-03 22:44:45.382: info: --- exception --- code: 0x0000000080000003 addr: 0x00007FFA7E084FD9 offs: 0x0000000000034FD9 prms: 0000000000000002 flgs: 0x0000000000000000
  2. I mean I came to meme, and succeeded while having no mechanical skill on what I was playing. WR% isn't the main thing I was tryna flex, it was more that an awful meme build was succeeding in top 250 of all players, when the pilot of the build was very far from skilled at it. Also, the gap between gold 3 and plat is pretty large; gold 3 is 14% of playerbase, plat 1 is 5%, plat 2 is less than 1%. Is this build meta in any way? no, and I'm not pretending it is LOL I just find that being able to get some kind of tangible reward (title) from a bad meme build from a player with no skill on thief is hilarious. What was food: A rev on shiro A reaper A DH A holo if not paying attention 90% of warriors Any glass build Other thieves Anyone who let me stand on the side of a teamfight and freecast repeater Anyone dumb enough to stand and eat a venomed thieves guild in a 1v1 What farmed me: Fire weaver MM necro most prot holos a rev paying attention to me I was able to slip away from almost every bad matchup except rev, making them the scariest to me Just about everything else was a toss-up
  3. I thought I'd take the time to share my adventure of playing 158 ranked games last season on E X C L U S I V E L Y a core thief with 1 pistol and a shortbow. Record: 87W-71L including DCs Rating: 1547 Rank: 192 NA Build: [&DQUUGyw+HCsMAYUAWQEAAD4BAABYAAAAKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA=]; carrion/krait, agony / cleansing/energy The game plan: move around the map, get cheeky 1 shots by abusing the low initiative cost of repeater (why is there a unique upside to not playing a full build???) and the interaction between smoke screen, repeater, and cloaked in shadow for frankly stupid burst and sustain potential, and you can spam repeater for like 12s at 4 bullets/second. The additional challenge: only allowed to speak in keyboard smashes. who needs to communicate anyways. So, I get my thief rolling. To make things very clear: I am not, nor do I masquerade as, a good thief player. My mains are guard/ranger/engi/ele. I took the build straight into ranked, and refused to swap regardless of who else was on the team (my usual ranked principles revolve heavily around multiclassing effectively). As I started spam q'ing, the strangest thing happened: I was winning. I was utterly decking people in fights with quicknessed, venomed stealth attacks and repeater spam. I even went back and forth setting repeater as autoattack, but it kept revealing me so I eventually decided against it, and had no autoattack at all. The burst potential: annoyingly passable. 20+ bleed stack burst with ample cover condis and insane damage mitigation from perma-blind. The mobility: spending almost no initiative means you can devote much more to moving around instead of saving initiative for fights like a good thief, because your burst is so low of a burst initiative cost. I decided new account, let's do my hardest title run yet (the one before that was titling a f2p acct, that one got baron cause valk ranger OP). I was taking matches off of the best of the best players, including a match off helio & jaden, ckod & albert, zyn & emdrix duos. And well, I already included the result at the beginning, the title run was a success, almost too easy of one for a player with no mechanical skill on thief. I'd like to end this post with the question: WHY???? Why is something like this possible? It's not a handicap, but a meme choice that actually has unique upside compared to a 'proper' condi thief, where your damage output per initiative is way higher, and the venoms make it burst just about as hard by literally holding 1 button. Repeater, and thief single mainhand skills need to be looked at again, this shouldn't be possible. Last but not least, an album of fun images: https://imgur.com/a/GbNOLh1
