I love that little 'fuck off I'm trying to fix my lights', looking forward to the video dude :D Edit: Okay Core this is one of your best true solos, so many intense moments on a weaker career and damn you nailed it well played
I love playing bh, true solo on him is hard as hell. I run a similar build to yours with exception of using the rapier, and having blood for money, assassin and salvaged ammunition. You do a few melle kills then switch to griffon foot, back to melee to get the crit and reload the pistols with them, its quite fun
@@torbyhormthegiant6748 it would still remain a worse version of falchion. Falchion have same damage, same speed and same stagger but on yop of that it have cleave
Just a technical question: you constantly backdodge and with that outrange every running attack (be it marauders or elites). Whenever I do that I tend to get smacked in the face 9/10 times, it basically looks like it look for you at the final event, where you caugh quite a few attacks. Is there anything super nuanced about dodging or reading the enemy attacks that I'm not aware of?
Just a couple of things that might contribute to what you're seeing is very high FOV and , as you mentioned, he's very familiar with enemy attack patterns. I try to think of it this way - we have the advantage of learning and the AI do the same thing everytime. Same spawn and attack patterns. Good use of dodge efficiency and pushing really allow him to create a "bubble" around him. We've all ran out of dodges when kiting a couple CW's or SV. The trick is to be patient and know they will always do the same thing.
Eh its alot of practice and often when i backdodge i try to shoot/hit the running attacks that would hit me. If you show me some examples i could maybe give some more detailed feedback
this is my favourite career, idk why you say its shit tho. In your opinion for true solo which one is easiest? And in not modded realm for a qp, who do you think is best?
Are you still using the same settings in this video as in your settings video (specifically ambient occlusion at high, FXAA)? Also, what boss damage? Also 23:00 no backstab sound from normal enemy ! You should report it on the forum. Backstab sound has been worse than even after Grail Knight patch.
i feel like i say this after every patch but man i am getting some extremely sneaky hits from behind or just out of view on the flank and let me tell you eating a beastman smack isn't too good for your health
The reason he is using the 1h axe is because the griffinfoot pistols have excellent horde clear and he really wants to use his melee weapon mostly to finish off weakened elites. It is typically one of the worst options but w/ the new pistol it is one of the best. The axe and falchion has better DPS which a lot of people are saying but that is only when spamming multiple attacks in a row - the axe has extremely fast initial damage. If you're using brace of pistols which is also a great choice for BH, you want a weapon with more horde clear so you go with things like billhook, axe and falchion, or rapier.
Very nice gameplay! Just a question: Isn't axe and falchion a bit better than the axe, especially for solo runs? I has better horde clear and basically the same anti armor capabilities. I've had more success with it than with the axe alone.
The answer is no, not really; the Repeater Pistol's damage is far too low on cataclysm without some crazy builds that make your melee suffer too much. On legend or lower however it's great on Bounty Hunter, being my favourite weapon to use on him below cata! Saltzpyre's closest equivalent to Kruber/Bardin's Handguns is the Brace of Pistols or the Crossbow. The BoPs tend to be better as they are rapid fire and only take one or two more shots to kill stuff than the crossbow. They also have more ammo, so you aren't punished so badly for missing, and it makes dealing with multiple targets easier. Hope this helps in some way!
Imagine having your entire army decimated by some one eyed dude wearing ruffles

17:25 That rotblood hesitating was funny
Truly inspiring as always

Im pretty sure FS dont buff 1h axes only because they want to keep 1 weapon that masohists can use
It's actually not that bad on zealot. With the right build it decimates everything. Unfortunately, I wouldn't use it on any other class.
@@torbyhormthegiant6748 well, zealot, slayer and HM have enough buffs to make 1h axes work.
@@torbyhormthegiant6748 it would still remain a worse version of falchion.
Falchion have same damage, same speed and same stagger but on yop of that it have cleave
@@iMost067 not entirely, the axe still trump's the falchion in armor piercing.
@@torbyhormthegiant6748 nope, it's literally same numbers
This might be the best bounty hunter run of all time. I was on the edge of my seat from start to finish... On my third time watching this video...
Mayor of Ussigen gets his town back! OMG! That was stressful to watch! Good job dude
surprised how well the griffon-foot dispatches storm vermin.
What a bountiful video!

INSANE!!! I was sweating bullets
That was awesome, good shit man!
Marvelous job with one of the most niche melees on a shitty solo career :D
i always thought red was cool looking for the illusions
is there a benefit to not using double shotted on this build or was the other talent picked just for fun
this is my favourite career, idk why you say its shit tho. In your opinion for true solo which one is easiest? And in not modded realm for a qp, who do you think is best?

Why axe over billhook or Axe and falcion?
Wow what a madman
do you have a list of the mods you use?
so when are you doing chaos waste cata runs? :P
What's a better melee weapon for BH Saltz? I haven't even gone into legend yet lol but more info is always nice.

I mostly just run brace of pistols and a falc it's mostly gonna be you trying to always land heads
great content, whats your fav class?
Witch Hunter Captain
@@core7822 Huzzah a man of quality!
@@core7822 Honestly I would have bet money that your favorite is Battle Wizard
Was there a reason you picked axe over axe and falchion?
Fashion
Very nice gameplay! Just a question: Isn't axe and falchion a bit better than the axe, especially for solo runs? I has better horde clear and basically the same anti armor capabilities. I've had more success with it than with the axe alone.
Axe was more of a fashion statement
do you run % boss dmg mods?
No
I just realized we have a vid on every new weapon except spear and shield kruber lol I guess its not that good.
I think its an extremely boring weapon and am salty he didnt get a ranged weapon lol
just. wow.
Are the repeater pistols better then the handgun?
huh? salt doesn't have handgun :)
@@kieranb7747 I know, I'm talking about for dwarf and krubert.
@@kieranb7747 wait yes he does, his turns into a shot gun if you hold block though
Oops you said handgun not repeater pistol

The whole video gave me anxiety
Doing that with his worst melee weapon 😳
Greatsword is worse
@@one7decimal2eight Nah it's okay, problem with Axe is that it has very little cleave which is worse then no armour damage
@@prich0382 why don’t people like great sword ? :( it looks so cool
watch that ammo bud
