Medieval Hardware sucks so bad

This playlist could've been tons of fun, a nice getaway from the stale pvp meta from other playlists. But it's just so, SO miserable. 1- Desync: this problem becomes exacerbated in this mode mecause of the way bows work. Getting shot through walls is not new to crucible, but because bows deal such massive precision damage, you are getting killed through walls ALL THE TIME in this plalist. Also, shooting an enemy at point blank while they're out of cover and doing no damage is very commom, so get used to it. 2- Glaive inconsistency: glaives in pvp are a big 50/50, either you hit everything or you hit nothing. Multiple times i've went up to enemies at like 1hp, meleed them with my glaive, and still got killed anyways because mine simply did no damage. Meanwhile, many times i was standing at full hp and someone ran at me with a glaive, meleed me ONCE, and i was dead. 3- One-shots... everywhere: honestly i'm still confused on this one. Every match i played there's at least one dude on the enemy team who's apparently Legolas himself, 'cause mfs will one tap EVERYONE. I've tried different builds, bows, armor mods, and nothing gives me anything remotely close. All my bows work the same, two shots to the head, period. But my enemies, oh no, one shot to the head (sometimes to the body) and you're good. I checked their guardians, their bows have no damage perks, neither does their armor, the ONLY thing i can think of is oathkeepers damage boost, but i've been using them myself and NEVER one-tapped someone, even with headshots. Some matches are straight up UNPLAYABLE because of players just demolishing everyone while it's impossible to duel it out without getting shafted as well. In the kill feed, all you see, the same player, over and over again. Then the final scoreboard comes up and they have more kills then all their teammates combined... I thought this playlist could get me away from all the one tapping of normal crucible but instead gave me something much worse.

  • Get rid of the one shot behavior going on and it's actually a pretty good time. However pair the one shot mess with cheaters and you'll be logging off in no time.

    👎👍🙏⚔️😴 - old

    I agree with your list of issues but those are not things that will change so this is how I think through the 3 you listed... to try to have fun in the mode: 1. I think of it as a very magnetic projectile... so I need to get deeper behind a wall.. the edge of the wall is not safety 2. Gotta be first with the glaive and figure out if that glaive's guard is worthwhile.. also gotta make sure the target is there... but mostly be first and chop away... I dont see enough nuance'd detail in the game for science here > be first 3. Truly annoying one-shots.. its the worst thing about the mode right now IMO... I think its the limited time mod that does that but also noticed Meganeura on Orfeo for those users... I report for cheating cause nothing should one shot... and then I hunt them down with glaive melee.... yeah no solution here other than a game company that does any testing and doesn't leave it entirely up to us...

  • Had the Glaive melee make the sound like it hit and just no damage and I’d die even thought one hit should have killed but 2 didn’t register damage. You know what did register the hit? Necrotic Grips did. They died to poison damage from my grips. Had that happen more than once so far. Melee damage doesn’t register but I poison them and they die. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Probably a P2P latency issue. Only get that on a couple of guardians a game while the rest die to the glaive. Now those 1 tap bows though… no fun. Therefore I must blink glaive with necrotic grips and 200 melee… if health is high, they still die. Only thing that keeps me from not doing bad in the mode. Always a pair of people on the enemy team 1 tapping everyone while in my team… that’s another issue 😅. Almost tempted to go to my hunter and go full fromage…

  • I wonder if they are using the Kill Shot mod and getting a precision hit kill streak

    • It’s the new bow artifact that does increased damaged and a mini explosion at the end, pair that with the hunter exotic that also increases damage it’s practically a one shot.

      • Could have been fun; but the 1 shot bows is just dumb

      • Check out my Warlock…my bow gets a lot of seemingly OHKs…not every time, though, more often than not. I tried all 3x new mods, the split arrow one is only good within a certain shortish distance, then fall-off… The jump shot one gives uncontrollable zoomies to movement, not good. I get zapped all the time by ‘that’ player, and his teammates - the shielded ones who never miss a headshot from behind walls / whilst sliding / jumping doing 180 degree Insta-spins / etc…and the ones with unbelievable post-match results. My seemingly OHKs are from slow shots on full draw and hold, then release… Not sure if this explanation helps…just my 2d worth. Oh, and I can’t spend the event currency either! That is all. Ease Strings! 🖖👻 MTFBWY

      • Tungsten string mod makes all bows 1 tap to the head. And mercury can 1 shot to the body with it. The trade off is that the draw time is longer than levies breath
