yeahhh get that bag Sniss!
The new raid shadow legends
Nah, pls don’t play this game. I have 1,7k hours into this game and I still have yet to unlock 1/10 of the content in it. Absolute hell of a grinding game 💀
I love the fish. Keep him safe.
Keep the fish
We love electric fish
Keep the fish! Please!
i put him in the sewers
@@liquidmech1727 YOU MONSTER
one of the best editing styles on youtube
thank you :''')
@@sniss thank YOU for the amazing vids, genuinely love your style
@@snissi like the stardew valley music😂
My favorite gun in the game!
Before I got into DRG I mained Torbjorn in Overwatch and loved the Riskrunner in Destiny.
When my cousin introduced me to the game I was like, "wait, I can play a dwarf with a turret _and_ and electric SMG!?"
You, you R&S!
You have a good cousin
It's a shame what has happened to both of those games, I'd love to play d1 at 60 fps, and overwatch is dead.
@@Crust_Crease now i kinda want a DRG-universe hero shooter, where the characters are just dwarves with different gear and cosmetics, and taking place in various mines and industrial locations
Funny you'd mention that. One of my Engis are equipped with gear that's supposed to resemble Torb's... 😅
The stubby isn't terrible, it's just not as flashy as an A.I powered smg, or as satisfying as a shotgun; the Deepcore Assault Rifle of the Engineer weapons. I will fully admit though, the turret arc rework is phenomenal compared to what it used to be.
People love to call the shotgun satisfying until you miss the grunt headshot.
@@Joeggurnaut546God do I feel that, thats honestly why I don't like the shotgun, I want to blast bugs without thinking too much, but if I do that I run out of ammo
It feels like you have to carefully aim every shot with warthog so you get that perfect headshot on a grunt, and if you don't, well buddy, you just wasted ammo, so on the contrary, I think warthog is VERY unsatisfying, and I've given it a shot many times
I like the consistency of the stubby
@@leviistired3621 turret whip is pretty fun tho
@@leviistired3621 as someone who's main oc for warthog is cycle overload and uses automatic fire in tier 5 I'd say not to sweat it most of the time I run out of ammo just as the team calls a resup.
@@Joeggurnaut546 I played tf2 for a while so I'm used to having to aim well with the shotgun
although, I am of the opinion that every engineer primary is fun, and I like that he has such a wide variety of choices for different kinds of players
i really loved the chapter transitions for this video, they where so nice and calming
idk what came over me to make them but they are also my fave part
Rock & Stubby or you ain't gettin' a hubby
I been sayin it for years
I like it better than the shotgun imma be honest
That's fine Im actually straight anyway
I hope Im still allowed to like stubby tho
People are saying that Stubby is his worst primary, but I full heartedly believe that that title belongs to the Warthog. Sorry not sorry lol@@nick1181
Making notes sound on a Upgradetree is bangers.
Fun fact, the electric damage bonus of stubby is not just more consistent, but actually optimal instead of going straight into weakspot damage. The bonuses add multiplicatively, making greater over all damage than two additive weakspot bonuses.
Am I the only one that's bothered by the fact that the dwarves aren't holding the stubby with both hands on the front grip?
Dwarves have insane grip strength. The front grip is there to determine who is an elven spy.
its probably there for humans
@@psyjinx 😂
@@fourswords77
Could be but I still can't unsee that
Who needs recoil management when you have dwarfyness
A note to add on the commentary about Plastcrete Catalyst "sucks". A perhaps massively overlooked aspect of the OC is that the AOE damage and size increases by 50% when shooting the platforms. That is a significant amount of extra damage. You don't even need to shoot it until it blows up, just spec the gun for AOE (T1A, T2B, T5C), and then move the beam off and back onto the platform to intentionally avoid the explosion. You do this to not force the gun into recharge and keep up the damage.
It increases damage? I thought it was only range
10:16 "I'm usually not this spicy without a couple martinis."
Ster - 2015
I don't think I use repellent on any build, I WILL man the cheese forts, I WILL collect the tolls for the cheese bridges and I WILL build Doretta a cheese umbrella
cheesed to meet you..
"Stubby is the worst engineer primary"
Micro-Conductor add-on is the MOST POWERFUL engineer primary in the entire game, allowing you to completely shut down grunt enemies
The problem I have is that between turrets, grenades and the PGL, grunts have never been an issue.
Meanwhile I can use executioner to destroy big enemies
People complain that it requires setup but you just place a platform infront of you and shoot it while running away from enemies and bam ur safe and u just killed a bunch of enemies
@@heloheltheone can do that with the PGL tho
@DodgeThatAttack Like 10 times, and then you won’t have any other use for the PGL
If you like micro EMD is even more of a monster. Talk about power creep
I've been using my own variation of the shock jock build for years now. It was highly underrated back then, but the fact that I could kill 3+ bugs with only 2-3 rounds to my turret was amazing. Now that the explosion doesn't friendly fire I can only imagine how good it must be now
This video was a real SHOCK JOCK
"a jock shock is like when your nuts get electrocuted"
Constantly in awe of the effort you put into these videos - and despite the large amounts of editing, it doesn't feel overedited at all. Speaks to a certain aesthetic sense methinks. The gun is cool too
"Plascrete catalyst usually sucks"
Those are some fighting words, boy
Was not expecting to see my home city in a Sniss video 4:08! Had me do a double take there. Good vid, I honestly used to hate the stubby, but i gave it a try a little bit back and its quickly become an equal for the other primaries, love running it on critical weakness with the new overclock.
Yoooooooo it's my hometown too!!!!
7:42 "Shard Diffractor's Plasticrete catalyst overclock usually sucks" is an opinion I did not realize existed lol, I use either catalyst or overdrive booster any time I use the diffractor, depending on mission type.
I really like running all electricity with EM refire booster (all 2's, but can be changed here or there for preference), because it's really good at crowd control and slowing down crowds without giving up your damage or your reliability like EM discharge or micro-conductor. Despite using the same OC as the build in the video, it's practically a completely different weapon. I also like running it with overdrive booster on the shard diffractor (3 2 2 1 1) to melt big enemies, or to spray down large swarms after they're held in place, and because it pairs well with electricity if you run it right.
as much as i want to like 22222 it just doesnt deal damage. Sure, the enemies are slower, cool. But you know when they're even more slow? When they're dead.
This is my build as well
@@benismann yeah as much as I wish 22222 stubby was good, it really is just a meme since the electric effect is so bad. Low arc chance, low damage, and low duration all hurt it a lot.
@@flapjackgd937 and it's like that with basically every stubby build lol. I didnt like warthog either, but pump action OC just made it my main engi weapon and stubby is sadly just out of competition (i dont like LOKI too! But i can see executioner on dreads working, so yea)
I love the redo of the turret arc overclock makes the weapon not only viable but super fun.
I just FREAKIN love themed intro- video bout stubby?. Electric-like intro
Video bout rivals? Rival tech style in intro! This is just nice to see small addition, B
But this is just so nice
12:57 insert clip of moistkr1tikal yelling about mags
Amazing transitions on the video, the music tones were very satisfying.
I fucking love electric fish
8:16 L.U.R.E. would be the best here, as you could bring more bugs to electrocuted platforms and the turret arc lightning
yes that's what I've been using and it works like a charm
I can’t even describe how good the editing on this video was wow. First time in forever I’ve been genuinely in awe of video editing. Also jerma references and stardew music wow great video 10/10
Why is the editing so good. It's so good it makes me feel I'm not worthy of watching it.
I LOVE the Stubby! I haven't played in 2 seasons but I always loved clip-dumping into bug backs! Can't wait to try it out this season when I get around to playing again
10/10! Hiring Electric Fish was clearly a smart move.
now its time for the lithofoamer video
best weapon
Tbf it definitely looks the coolest
Love the new editing style.
It's not that I don't like the stubby, I just fell in love with the warthog right from the start. And now it's even better with pump charge!
Stubby is my favorite weapon in the game, had no idea people were considering it bad, I use it with EM refire booster oc, love this weapon❤
My favorite part of the stubby is how creative you have to get with some of the overclocks compared to engi's other primaries. Which still keep the primary idea of just "shoot bug" on most of them. I also want to take a quick moment here to say that I absolutely adore this editing style, it's a real highlight of this video. Especially the transitions when going over the builds.
Last thought: Please keep Mr. Electric Fish he was such a cute addition to this format
Electric fish seems like an asset to the channel, he seems to really know what he's talking about. And despite being translated, he's quite charismatic!
The editing in this video is immaculate
I legitimately didn't enjoy playing engineer until I got this little beast of a weapon. Not even the LOK is this simple, yet pleasing to play with.
And the shotty, while lovely, tends to leave glyphids on a sliver of health no matter how I build it.
Love the editing on this one! I hope we get to see the funny little fish in the next video. I've been running with something similar to build 2 since they changed the overclock and it's the most fun I've had honestly
Em refire plus fire rj250 is a very fun combo imo. Also love the star inspired intro, jerma vid bit, and the whole channel uncle dane and funke inspirations.
I love the electrical noises from the stubby. It makes it sound like it's a cute laser gun toy.
Oh my... you're work never goes unnoticed or unappreciated. You are the greatest at giving us the weapon content we need. Thank you so much Electric Fish! Well, you too Sniss.
Micro-conducter gives a lot of survivability to engineer imo. It's always been my toughest class to stay alive, but with that overclock, if I'm getting flanked, I run, shoot a plat down and electrify it. Doesn't require that much planning, just shooting plats on the ground and running in circles works beautifully in many missions.
Came across this vid today and INSTANTLY subbed. Your editing style is so chill and creative plus your voice adds such a lovely vibe to it. Keep it up!!!
edit: not to mention the great DRG weapon tips!! Cheers!
This video was a treat for me, a engi that usually only uses the warthog. Ill give the stubby a try. I hope more videos are like this in the future and that you keep the fish.
I believe that there is no bad weapons in the game it all depends on builds
i found that the em refire booster was pretty competent at keeping crowds at bay, as well as single target damage, it also pairs really well with *any* shard diffractor setup
Man, you just make really solid videos! Your effort and care shines through, well done
How is your channel hit so much larger. Its actually hilarious and still somehow educational.
Glad Stubby's getting its due diligence with this vid, my favorite Engineer primary with the Micro Conductor buffs. I love how it makes me feel like I'm setting up TF2 stickybomb traps
For Micro Conductor Add-on, I can recommend an alternative: 2-2-2-1-1. This makes the stubby versatile for different situations, and makes the electrified platforms more ammo efficient as the increased electrification chance means less ammo spent to get the arc. I opt for better accuracy (T2) and weak-point damage (T4) to provide utility for flying & distant targets. For T5 I prefer having the mag size back. The build absolutely rocks with Plastcrete Catalyst. I tend to run SSGs with it, mines are overkill. It is worth noting a few extra things about the zappy platforms. 1. they give off a fair bit of light. 2. They really suit a mobile parkour style of play, not just defensive. You opt for more ammo (good for parkour) and as you are hopping between platforms just zap em to electrify which kills/slows anything near you. I often electrify a platform above me when mining to cut back on surprises, you can also ring supply drops and electrify those to give breathing space to dwarfs topping up. Slapping down a couple platforms and electrifying them will bring a detonator to a crawl. Destroying the platforms does not remove the arc, but plastcrete catalyst is also a big AoE & damage buff without necessarily detonating the platform. It's a great build for Salvage and Escort, but also for run & gunning parkour playstyles. As for meeting that Engi that loves the build, pleasure to meet ya. :)
12:24 "A jock shocker is like your nutsack getting electrocuted??"
Thank you for making this video!! Seeing stuff like this really does make me want to play a wider range of builds, and honestly now I'm going to sit down and make use of the many loadout slots for each class. I definitely have considered making builds for different mission types and I think this is inspiring me to do that.
the editing in this is so smooth! very fun vid
Why nobody is talking about how cool empty mag spins after you drop it!? One of my fav weapon in game.
Also always loved your videos - you trully appreciate this game and its details. I hope you make more of them.
THEY DID IT. THEY ACTUALLY MADE THE STUBBY VIDEO
I've always had a soft spot for the Stubby, so I was happy to see it get some attention in Season 5. I also can NOT believe this Plascrete Catalyst slander, it's one of my favorite OCs.
Man.. your Video Editing is so Clean and Neat! Great work dude! My life for ROCK AND STONE!
Praise be the stubby voltaic smg!
HELLO !!!
But seriously, awesome video, you didn't have to make it or even make it so well, my foot fungi, its dissipating! Thank you so much, rock and stone!
i mainly play engineer in DRG and mostly using the SMG, and i LOVE IT, people might complain it doesn't feel satisfying enough or smth like that, but i love using it all the time with the EMP oc, it just does everything, wants crowd control? EMP. DPS? EMP. wave clear? EMP. longe range threats? SMG normal fire mode lol. Debuffs? STUBBY VOLTAIC SMGGGGGGGGGGG, of course, i like the other primaries, but the voltaic just does so much for so little... it's just the perfect engineer weapon AND oc(althought, i don't think i would be using it that much without the OCs...)
i'm surprised the stubby is hated, or at least has low pickrate. not from the start, but with time it grew on me and it's my go to on engineer. it feels simple and it feels good, and with some overclocks (specially new ones) it can do some funky stuff too! hope more people start loving it with this video. as always, love you sniss :)
Micro Conductor Add-On was what really got me to like the Stubby. I used to only use it for the sake of Weapon Maintenance skins, but now I’ll gladly use it whenever I feel like the opportunity is right.
Don't know if you chose the "coast shot with mountain skyline" at random or how my hometown landed in this video but, always nice to see a slice of home make it to the international stage (Can never mistake the Cape Town skyline for anywhere else)
- Useful info? 👍
- Adorable fish gag 👍👍
- jokes 👍👍👍
- Marimba bing bong noises on nice meditation backgrounds for builds 🥵🙏💯👍👍👍
I gotta say, this converted me. I used the shotgun and occasionally the Lok-1, but never really gave the Stubby much of chance in the last 100 or so hours. But that first build genuinely feels great to use and I think the Stubby is going to be one of my go-to weapons after I get a feel for it. Thank you for letting me see past my greenbeard prejudice.
awesome editing as always, and electric fish, great job, you are very knowledgeable
This has always been my favorite engineer weapon. My love for SMG’s has existed since the UMP in MW2.
Side note I like the editing of the video with the extra fish tips.
Been using that last build (or at least something similar) for years, one of the best crowd controls on Engi imo as two turrets near one another make such easy bug chunking. Always recommended it to folks whenever they hated on my baby Stubbers.
Dude, your editing is SO good
Hyperalloy Assembly and the reworked Micro-conductor Add-on made me appreciate the stubby way more than in previous seasons. With those I can definitely say that every weapon in the game has a playstyle that I really enjoy and the I can switch between any of them without dreading it.
I have used turret arc for salvage missions since forever. It was just fun to build a fort with an electric fence. Then they reworked that overclock and now I get an electric fort that explodes. It was super fun! I kind of didn’t like either engi primaries before the smart rifle came out, but odd to think people hate the stubby. I think I liked the stubby more than the shotgun to some people’s surprise. But I think I just like applying DoT effects heh. Very nicely edited video Sniss btw 🩵
Why does the SDV soundtrack fit the Stubby so well? >>;;
But yes, I feel like the Stubby SMG got a looot of love from GSG this update, and I've been using it a lot more recently. The Micro-Conductor Add-On really gives Engies an option if you were ever having ammo issues, just due to how long those platform electric fields last. I've even been finding myself taking Fatboy for giggles with that SMG setup while not becoming a Resupply Eater.
A+ builds, Electric Fish ^^
(Don't worry, little guy. I can't fix cars either)
I love stubby. Medium to long range consistent damage without the hassle of a loki, more amo efficient and has fun oc’s
Stubby and boosted Diffractor is a monster and my favorite combo.
Been my favorite Engineer primary practically since I unlocked it - of course, that may also have to do with unlocking EM Refire Booster as my first engi overclock, so it's basically always felt like an awesome little bullet hose to me!
The turret arc overclock rework was a welcome change. Being able to electrify turrets and platforms gives you a lot of options.
This was my first time learning some people dont like certain weapons in drg, I use and love all of them equally
before the video even starts, GOD i love the stubby. and i can't wait to learn even more here. it's my favorite primary because of just how CONSISTENT it is compared to the others; it's pretty easily applicable in every scenario comparatively, and it is not bad damage-wise or ammo-wise. with the right builds, like any other DRG gun, it can do its job and more.
edit: after watching, i am delighted to see that both build 1 and build 3 are basically what i swap between on this thing, haha
I always loved the stubby, especially with exploding turrets. An extremely ammo efficient weapon, capable of both single target, and AOE damage. I had no idea that there were reasons not to like it.
I personally like Em refire with 23222 for CQC, I call it the "thunderclap". Pulse the trigger for long range while you cross your fingers. Also pairs well with "bug grinder", spinning death 12122 for particularly messy engagements. Menaces be damned.
It became my favourite when I used turret em discharge, I can’t get over how efficient the thing is when you use this overclock like I’ll not need a resupply for a HOT minute just because turret go boom now
Hey sniss, been watching your videos for 2 years now, and you never disappoint. You are seriously one of the most talented variety content creators on youtube right now, and this has only set the bar higher. The Cult of Eric™ approves of this video!
Praise be the stubby!
I was very surprised to learn that people dislike the stubby. First friend who said they didn’t like it said it’s because it runs out of ammo too easily. And then I was even more surprised, because with the build I usually run on it (and the other primaries), the stubby was by far the most ammo efficient. Honestly haven’t experimented with my loadouts that use it in a while, so maybe I’ll try one of these.
Space Beach Party may be done for the year but Sniss is still putting out content with Stardew Valley summer music
Honestly always thought the Loki felt worse since the Stubby and the shotgun are very reliable and have a good amount of ammo. While the Loki feels like it is instantly empty.
yeah lok rn has way too little ammo and is only really strong with ECR or EXE
Love the new member to the channel, welcome electric fish!
The Stubby is my favorite Engie primary. I stacked all the ammo mods I could on it, so I barely need to resupply.
I took a huge break from drg for a while but these videos got me back into the game. Love the videos piss+sneeze
My favorite for stubby is using em refire booser and specking fully into electricity and firerate, along with feedback loop on the shard diffractor. It just mows down hordes of bugs and can still do some pretty good single target damage, it's my favorite build in the game.
The two games I have been playing the most in the past couple of months are DRG and SDV. So when I heard the SDV music but saw the DRG graphics my brain melted.
Babe, Wake up! the Snissler just uploaded
stubby is my #1 engie primary
EM Discharge is probably my most used overclock after 800+ hours, it not only tickles the brain right but is also immensely helpful at both thinning out swarms and slowing down bugs. You didn't mention this but the shockwave also inflicts fear: while fear can sometimes be annoying since it scatters bugs unpredictably, the electrocution applied means they don't actually run off anywhere, enabling it to work as a fantastic "get-off-me" option for you and your team when hanging around sentries. Any situation where you need to post up and defend against an incoming swarm EMD can put in insane work, and ever since they updated it to show the range and not harass your teammates it's only gotten better; it's surprising that they improved the weapon since I'd seen a lot of people agree that it was really strong. Glad we don't have to worry about how the glyphids feel!
Don't forget it deletes omen towers
Ever since the rework to one of its overclocks I started using the stubby exclusively. Making platforms into tesla coils is always fun.
Stubby is one of my favorite weapons tho…
I like to slap a clean overlock on it and abuse the electricity bonus.
Getiing build tips didn't convince me yet that stubby isn't the worst objectively of the options, but that doesn't mean it's bad.
The main appeal for me is that it's fully automatic, meaing you can just spray whatever you like with any build, something the shotgun and lok-1 don't give you so easily. I hope GSG understands that too and doesn't turn any of the other primaries into automatic rifles with little to no difference by making an overclock that makes the gun automatically fire locks and speed it up enough to make the firerate seem pretty fast, because that's just kicking stubby down when it least needs it
I’ve always liked the stubby because it’s effectively chain lightning and it makes me happy
Genuinely surprised by this! The stubby has been my favorite since I started.
it's nice to see someone else who injoys the stubby, it deserves a better reputation then what its got IMO.
I had no idea that so many people hated the stubby. I’ve been using it for ages and it’s been in of my main engineer load-out for a while now.
EM Discharge is actually much more versatile than this video makes it out to be. Since Quick Deploy allows turrets to be built in just 2 seconds, EM Discharge needs just a single charge of Dash or good awareness to be set up and ready to take down entire swarms on its own. Grunts will die a single blast if you let the DOT, or 2 blasts in quick succession. Everything else gets slowed to a crawl. So it does excel for holding a point, but it's much more adaptable to mobile playstyles that one might think. I personally take it on every mission type except elimination.
