This video took 4 lifetimes to create, I actually had to time travel to the year 3099 where you could clone yourself before you die and I cloned myself several times in order to live long enough to create this video. If we don't have 1000 Subscribers before april i cry ;( Edit: Okay wow we hit 1000 subscribers already. Thanks everyone for smashing the goal. We gained 500 subscribers in 2 days which is incredible considering the first 500 took months. Hopefully we can keep this rate of growth up and I am planning a 1000 subscriber special but its gonna be a while so we might be at 2000 by then lol. Again, thanks everyone. :)
How do you not have atleast 10k + subscribers. This stuff is amazing and very thought through, aswell as being well explained and executed! It usually takes me seeing 10-20 of a channel videos before I decide if they deserve a subscribe but just seeing this one video and how amazing it is I knew I had to subscribe. Also you did an amazing job at keeping your viewers hooked! Congrats on being the first RUclipsr that has got me to watch a full 30+ minute video! You are able to explain the use of the items, cost, strategies and ability’s withought getting the veiwer bord. Prob one of the most deserved subs I have ever done
@@Tierology I think your mapper was bugged. Whenever I spawn it in, the display works normally when in the ship, but as soon as you leave it freezes, and will only update the display every time you use some charge. This is probably how it was supposed to work, as you would only have 20 uses, and its range isn't very far. Idky yours didn't stop updating when you left the ship.
Boom box has 2 undisclosed upsides if you check the code, they are as followed; 1 - Moral of team +50-1000%. 2 - Become baller af. Always make sure to check so we don't have to correct you.
Actually, the walkies battery lasts for a good percentage of the day. Solo players can use it's power bar as a indicator. Letting them know when to go back to the ship
Using a walkie in Solo is just a bad idea. You already only get 4 TOTAL item slots, one will probably be a weapon or Flashlight. The talkie is a waste of a slot.
@@roysamuels9468 Why would you use the Walkie in solo? There's no one on the other end. Walkies in Duos or more, and it's immediately amazing again and often worth sacrificing a shovel or (pro) flashlight for
30:58 Correction, Eyeless Dogs can be killed with 3 shots from the Shotgun, Sometimes it may seem like they are Invincible to the Shotgun due to Hit Registration messing up.
I think the shovel is pretty balanced because their is definitely a skill gap. A noob can pick it up and kill a snare flea or a lootbug or something but it takes someone more experienced to circle around the tougher enemies and take them down
boombox is good if you get lost easy in the hallway modules, i just put the boombox at the “start” of where i am and then i can follow back to the music when i want to leave or get lost
I feel like the zap gun can be so much more. Like it could be one of the very few items that can make solo life so much easier as I think it should be used to stop giants from eating you or at least be able to stun everything a a period of time after the stun ends
I think there should be reward system for how skilled you are at controlling this shit and any time you stun someone they will get aftereffect stun of either same duration or at least half of it to balance it out. That or at least have light damage Ghostbusters style so some enemies can be killed even more quickly under it's effect.
I think the basic flashlight is heavily underrated. It's cheap, meaning its expendable, so you can always just drop it if you need the extra inventory. And it has no weight, meaning there's literally no downside to carrying it around if you plan on dropping it anyways. In short, the flashlight isn't amazing, but there's just no reason not to bring it if you've got the money anyways, unlike the pro flashlight which weighs something, and thus slows you down. Actually a decent item, not the worst in the game. And if you know how to manage your battery, you can make it last an entire day easily. Just turn it on only for a second a time to get your bearings, then turn it off again. I'll even say that if you can manage the battery well, it's better than the pro. B Tier. Deserves same tier as pro.
@@zotethegoat I personally prefer it, but that's because I don't find myself needing more brightness, and I can make the battery last for all the time I need it.
totally agree. The speed difference between 0 and 5lbs weight is suprisingly big. The light is bad but so much better than complete darkness And you will never feel bad about dropping and forgetting about it just like a scumbag throwing their trash out the car window
Just a small addition to the DIY flashbang : you can actually throw it if you spam left click, and you will take no damage. You can't throw it as as far away as the regular stun grenade because it explodes much faster than it. You'll still get blinded, but you can at least negate the -20 damage that you would take otherwise!
@@samuelmoreira9606 Press yourself against a wall and activate the extension ladder right next to you. The ladder will gain a collision box while it's touching you, which will push you away from it into the wall. Repeat until you're fully clipped inside.
@@thecrimsoncreep6665 thanks, and if I recall correct, you can do that inside the facility, once you get clipped and fall, you get back to the entrance
I remember when everyone thought the jetpack was just a stupid gimmick item, glad people are finally coming around on it. Best item in the game for me despite the cost
The lock picker saved an entire run of mine one time. I was a playing with one other friend, and it was the last day. He had died to a jump (L bozo) and we were short of quota, and it was late. However, I had remembered about a locked door close to the main entrance that had a 90 dollar laser pointer on the other side (it was so close it could be scanned form the other side) we had to some spare cash, so I rushed to the ship, and thankfully I was on experimentation (literally every other moon was stormy, flooded, or eclipsed) so I made it fairly quickly. I ordered a lock picker, rushed back to the door, got the laser pointer, and quickly got the most valuable items at the main entrance and dashed to the ship. Although a dog was blocking my path, I was able to get past it and the moment I got on the ship it hit midnight and the ship automatically lifted off and we made quota. For that reason I consider it S tier.
Start of video and im going to instantly defend the flashlight. I always bring the complaints with the flashlight down to a skill issue. If you constantly toggle on and off the flashlight when you could use some more light, and commit what you see to memory. It's really good. Takes up no weight and because it's cheap as heck, you can drop it with no repercussions to take loot instead. I actively play the game using constant pinging to see. Which helps detect walls, enemies, traps, loot I otherwise wouldn't have noticed, etc. So whenever I use the flashlight, I actually find it as something of a luxury I seldom indulge in. Generally the equipment I bring in is the stun grenade, maybe a shovel, or a key. I think the flashlight is just a misused piece of equipment that serves a different purpose and role than the pro flashlight. Which is usefully for densely dark, wide open areas like in the manor and circle connector hallways in industrial facilities. As well as needing to be actively relied upon for safety and information gathering of your surroundings. 5 weight doesn't sound like much on paper, but it adds up with all the other junk you pick up, and often times, 5 weight makes the difference between being dead and living to see another quota. I get why everyone hams on the flashlight, but I often find the accepted and spread mentality to be damaging to the usefulness the flashlight can provide. It all comes down to how you use the equipment and the strategies you employ with it. Get creative with the equipment lads, you never know the possibilities they can provide for you if you just approach them in a different way.
The spray paint is so awesome, usually go to each fire exit with it and spray the safe and real fire exists. (We play with the mimic mod) And create paths from the main entrance so we don’t get lost.
Ok but fr ladders are insane on titan, i found out that by opening the ladder just on the edge of the downwards stairs on the large platform, you can literally drop items straight on to the ship and make them count (if you have been dropping them off the main entrance exterior). Plus giants are barely an issue. When you have finished transferring, you can just take the ladder, and jump from the railing and land right next to the ship. You can even make it onto the ship if you have a low weight.
EXCUSE ME LOCK PICKER IN B TEIR!!?? You find way more keys than you need, and keys aren't worth anything, so just hoard them on the ship and you will almost always have a key on you because of how common they are or it will take you like 20 seconds to get to the ship and back. And if it's really stumping you just go fire exit because you will have more luck there anyways. ALSO like just scan or look through a door to see if you need a key because quite a bit of them are just dead ends and you will be saving more keys for later. Also if you really don't need keys that much just give it to a hoarder bug. Also imagine the pain of lugging around a lock picker every time you go in🤮 I suggest you move it down to F
so you’re telling me you will hoard the keys and keep going back to the ship to pick up keys. or is your whole squad going to have keys in your inventory? it’s pretty dumb what you’re saying lad
green flashlight in F? if you keep it on the whole time yea it's gonna be an F, but i only turn it on when checking corners and entering a new walkway. plus being so cheap, it's very disposable, which is actually a good thing because if it's too risky you don't have to go back to main and die trying to get a flashlight that ultimately costs 0, according to the company.
@@marioisawesome8218 yep and with conservative use they have a long life, the pro flashlights are still great for higher quota runs when you have the spare cash to buy stacks but I love my green flashlights lol
I'm glad you can comment I was trying so hard to say the green flashlights were goated but for some reason my comments you say error 404 and dissappear when I came back to the video
@5:25 Don't know if someone's mentioned this, but you were always able to kill Bracken with shovel-strafing. The weight has nothing to do with it (although it helps) as you are able to perform the same strafing method with a Stop Sign and Yield Sign
Interestingly, The Regular flashlight was used in the current quota WR, although when I asked in Bread's comment section why it was one of the other players. I think generally the only reason sometimes its prefered is the lack of weight, and arguably the fact that it can be more easily be abandonded as it costs less. Extension ladder could well be buffed in v50, given the changes to slopes coming. Also on mansion interiors they can help you get some lamps that spawn inside kitchen counters. Imo, spray paint should be B Tier. Useful to mark out where you've already explored or where locked doors are, but on mansion interiors you don't need to know the way back to at main - only fire. I'd rate lockpicker higher any day, even if it is slow as hell. Those unimplemented scrap items are pretty cool. I feel like the binoculars could be strong if they let you see through the fog on high tier moons, though arguably some form of Night Vision goggles does fit that sort of idea better - although I don't think that making them as heavy as you suggested would really make sense, completely dumpsters the item, given I feel that is most useful when you're doing trips with loot on rend or dine - and without a 2 hander. Already not having 2 handers makes it kinda defunct to jetpack, so makes it something hardly worth roaming with - but with a low weight it could still be worth it. Could be good to scope out for teammates from what direction they are giant-aggroe'd though. I feel like the implementation of such an item could vary in a lot of ways that would massively change the item. Hope the survival kit gets like fixed, like if it were the starting 60 credits it would be pretty good, heck change it such that its 3 flashlights and 2 walkies and thats arguably more balanced. First quota using walkies is hardly worth it anyway, and same goes for using flashlights really.
As my groups Ship Guy, I'd like to say that the standard Flashlight is generally something I keep on hand. The lesser lighting means very little on the ship, the lesser battery just means you have to recharge it more often, assuming you even need to use it, because it's for pretty much for 2 things: Lightning Strikes and Remote Trolling. I have no reason to carry the Pro, and now that the Kidnapper Fox is in the game, losing a standard Flashlight means less than a Pro Flashlight. On that topic, rotate your terminal around so it blocks you from the door to prevent the fox from taking you. I did this before the foxes were even added because it made me feel safer, but now it actually does make me safer.
loud horn is so useful on titan with friends or even solo when you need to have a clear path. it almost completely removes the threat of dogs entirely as long as one guy is using the horn. you can even use the horn to get dogs away from the front door if you are trying to kill them and a teammate needs to get in
devils advocate, I use the baby flashlight specifically because it is so cheap and worthless that it can be treated as a disposable item. We buy them in bulk, and bring one into the facility. as soon as I need the inventory slot, I just drop it in the facility and bring a new one on the next stage. it gives you the benefit of having a flashlight (even though the light beam sucks) without the biggest problem, which is the inventory slot.
Real quick: Extensions ladders are way better than C tier. If you don't find them very useful, it's because you aren't being very creative with it. It's a portable platform/vertical ascension tool. The possibilities are more varied than you think. I also think the mapper, with some tweaks, could be a cool item. Basically just turn it into the Motion Tracker from Alien: Isolation, because that is such an amazing horror game tool that I think it belongs in Lethal Co. Also, a signal translator code me and my buddies like to use is "Ship Crit" as in "Ship Critical." Basically, if something dangerous is near the ship, this lets people know before they just run up to the ship.
Inverse teleporter in B tier is the craziest thing of this video. It is useless, so dangerous, it is basically a certain death. It's better if you just choose another moon with less outdoor problems.
Flashlight is way more op than you're making it seem. Its just a cheaper, lighter pro-flashlight. 5lbs isn't that much but its enough that it does impact your run, and when you use the "flash" strategy where your flashlight is only on for a second or two at a time the flashlight can last a whole run.
@@SATELLITEDOWN7735 The battery life isn't as much of a hinderance as the range, the only reason that pro is better in my opinion is that it has way worse range, most runs I discard my flashlight before it runs out anyways.
Tbh I think the zap gun should be at least in C tier, while yeah you CAN kill stuff without it, the zap gun makes those kills much more consistent and way easier, so if you have the credits to spare you should always buy one, and have another teammate equip a shovel to easily clear out any killable enemies
1. Whoever recorded the footage sucks with the zap gun 2. The zap gun has a really good use to BUY TIME Most obvious is the jester,but other monsters you would like to zap as well, since you got 5 seconds of sprint, the zap gun can give you that little of bit of stamina you need to escape, also it gives you time to think, as someone who doesn't work the best under stress the zap gun gives me a moment to react and think about my options.
no frickin way is green flashlight F tier. It's 0 weight and cheap cost lets you grab a bundle of them and give them to your shovel warrior- multiple mobs require having no weight other than the shovel in your inventory to easily fight them, namely spiders and if you're bold, bracken. It's cheap cost lets you toss it away on a high tier moon for another small loot item without feeling guilty for abandoning it, and the lack of weight improves your mobility. If its the only item you bring, bring a pro light, but if you're bringing something else and still want a little light for a bit bring a green. you can also use the dropped light as a landmark. It's at WORST a C tier.
I like the basic flashlight. If you've played the game a lot you dont need to use much light at all in the facility so having the ability to see in little bursts to check for traps and layout can be pretty good. What exactly do you need the extra power of the pro flashlight for anyway? plus, the weightlessness and low cost makes it cheap enough to dispose of without a second thought if you find some deep in loot. The boombox however has no net positive effect. It can be used to lure slimes but attempting this is a complete waste of time and credits when you can just jump over it, go around it or failing all that, go explore other branches until the slime has moved
The flashlight is nice because it doesn't slow you at all. The battery doesn't matter if you're careful and sparing with how you use it, and so its just preferable to the heavier alternative. I typically dont need to see much more than it provides, and the ping provides enough on its own to shore up any issues. Probably B tier or A tier considering its the only weightless light source.
The Zap Gun changes the shape of the slimes which makes them easier to avoid, and stops even the Giant in its tracks which is good if a buddy is left outside
Ive also found the boombox pretty useful for finding the exit. can drop it at the door when you go in, or have a friend drop it there, and it can make it easier to find your way out. I find it especially useful if you like to inverse into the map, and have friends that dont inverse. extra useful if you play with mods such as the mimic mod, since you can place it at the real fire exit, making the mimic exits easier to avoid
I have a joke strat with the Jetpacks, on modded rooms where the people usually have a ton of credits cheated in, the jetpack serves as a ship defensive system at the cost of your own life. If someone is running away and they happened to get stuck between tons of dogs and giants while the other players are on the ship, I pack up the jetpack, aim for the most damage and then launch myself to die, and explode.
The normal flashlight is neat for having it as a backup. It doesn't hurt to just drop it and pick scrap up in its place, but if the pro-flash bearer succumbs to a Hole In The Ground then you can still light your way back outside
something to add to zap. there is a bug with the zap that I call "zoomy glitch". this makes it so that whoever got zapped instead of being slowed they get sped up for some reason. I found out this starts when a player is zapped and they don't move on ship take off. things to note is that the more used the faster the player will get and it will be fixed on player death from what I remember
I think the regular flashlight is pretty good cuz it's so cheap to the point you can bring it with you, explore, and on your way back drop it so that you can carry more items. The cheapness of it allows you to leave it behind, or trade it to loot bugs
That's what I'm saying I bet bro is either playing on minimum brightness or is playing on Max Brightness and still can't see because giving it to lootbugs is so good and you should already be able to play without seeing much since the whole point is to use the scan button
some small notes about items im gonna make throughout the video - Normal Flashlights can be used to better see at night on snowy moons and the vision is actually better than the normal flashlight in this one scenario because the pro flashlight has too much light - Zap Guns are slightly better now that giants are killable but in the vast majority of scenarios this isnt gonna happen and its better to just use an easter egg if you really need to kill a giant for some reason and still stun grenades are easier to use - Walkie Talkies can also be used to transmit typed messages to anyone anywhere who has an active walkie talkie which can be somewhat useful if a dog is camping ship BUT the other person has to notice that you even typed in text chat which is the hard part lol - Stun grenades can be used to kill enemies if you bait them over a mine which is always fun lol also this is a really informative and well edited video i love it keep it up, almost all of what i said is a very niche use or was added after you made the video so i can tell you play a lot of lethal company lmao
2:00 yea.. you can just leave it when it runs out or you can pick more up, that's the whole point, it's really good actually. I'd say at worst it's C tier. 5:44 I can agree but for different reasons; it's still good, but not that good, it is more useful for GETTING a shot gun and then you just keep it for when you don't have shells. 10:00 If anything because of the really gimmick nature of it, the cost, and the fact that it impairs you so much I'd put that in F, if not barely scraping into D. 20:00 While it is fun and can be somewhat useful; the random dropping being able to kill you not even from turrets just teleporting you into a pit, that along with the fact you can't take anything with you and its cost means I'd put it squarely in F tier, don't get me wrong it is FUN, but it's not good, it can literally kill you. 22:00 The game is meant to be played with more than 1 person, with all of the boons that the walkie gives I'd have to put it in S tier, though it does rely on people listening to you, most of the time that isn't a problem if you are ship mom.
I agree on the first 3, but the inverse tele isnt f tier... probably d. As for walkies, I honestly think they are b at absolute best. With the signal transmitter being a thing, walkies are far less useful bc they take up an entire inventory slot. My groups almost never run walkies, theres so much you can say but so little ship mom can actually do.
@@itsraventm inverse is FUN, if we were ranking FUN it'd be S tier because that thing is VERY fun to use the problem is that it's just not very useful. F might be harsh but it woudn't be much higher as for walkies, again it depends on your team, if your team listens they are easy s tier if not they are f tier but if we go with the best for it it's s, I was VERY particular about saying the conditions that MAKE it s because realistically it's probably only b tier as you said.
@@itsraventm Walkies are weird, at low or new experience levels, they don't communicate enough to help. At medium experience with the game they are best to open doors and get loot and inform of enemies When you know everything or most entities in the game and mechanics, they're nearly useless and waste a lot of loot by taking up an item slot and having someone on the ship not getting loot
you still loose 8% of your credits for every death, even if the body was recovered. unrecovered bodies give a -20% credit penalty, so 2.5 times the small penalty
i feel like the radar booster needs to be higher then B tier. it makes you immune to alot of entities (espicially forest giants which allow for good vow runs) and it allows you to see where the loot may/might be. or if theres entitys.
Maybe the binoculars could’ve made scrap give off a little shiny glow and make enemies get vaguely highlighted, there’s usually scenarios where you can’t see some monsters due to it being night.
The green flashlight is far better than you gave it credit for. It’s disposable, so you don’t have to worry as much about leaving it for loot. It’s cheap, so if you have a full four-person crew, you can get one for everybody. Sure, its battery life isn’t great, but there’s no reason to keep it on all the time. You just need to turn it on when you enter a particularly dark area, and then turn it off again once you know where you’re going. It won’t weigh you down, and can save your life in the early game.
One use for walkie talkies that wasn't touched upon is to use it as a watch. Since the battery lasts over a full day, if you charge your battery in orbit and turn it on upon landing, you can use the battery levels on the walkie to estimate the time of day or memorize the time for certain corresponding points in the battery life (About 3:30-4:00 for half battery and midnight at about 20% battery). Can be convenient for solo runs too since you know to beware of giants and dogs at half battery and to get out of the facility at about 25-30% for late night runs. Also good for ship duty so they can estimate the time and communicate it with the people inside without having to leave the terminal.
Regular flashlights are good when playing with four players since you can buy four of them at the beginning of quota. It’s also a nice idea to buy a couple in case people die and lose pro flashlights before the selling day
If you have trouble finding the exit, leave the Boombox at an important junction that leads back to the entrance, or on the entrance door itself to find your way back. The Zap Gun is also great at eliminating hard to kill enemies or taking on multiple enemies. I slay Brackens, Dogs, and entire groups of Masks with the Zap Gun. You can also use it far more times than a Shotgun, and you can recharge it to get back full ammo. I always keep one Zap Gun in the locker for emergencies, like holding back a horde of dogs, clearing the extract of masks, or killing a camping Bracken so we can steal the loot it was guarding.
Here's my tier list - keep in mind this is just based on how I play and what's important to me in game. Green flashlight - F Tier. It's barely useful. Just buy a pro flashlight. Boombox - F Tier. Never buy it. It's a waste of your credits. Slime is not a threat. Zap gun - C Tier. Its only real use is to trap Jesters without waiting for them to start winding up. You can kill everything easily without it and it's a huge waste of money and an item slot. Extension Ladder - A Tier. You need it on Rend to get lamps stuck in the kitchen. You want it on Titan to get loot back twice as fast. TZP Inhalant - B Tier. Paired with a jetpack it's incredibly useful to carry back large items while your jetpack person runs small items, but that's basically its only use. Loud Horn - F Tier. Just use the Signal Translator. Pro Flashlight - S Tier. On top of all the advantages Tierology described in the video, the flashlight simply helps you clear faster, which is the most useful thing an item can do. Radar Booster - F Tier. Just use a stun grenade, or hide from giants. Lockpicker - S Tier. Saves runs from being lost when you find a locked door at fire (or 5). Inverse Teleporter - C Tier. Feels like going in to fire exit, it's faster, but you get less of a mental map for the facility. Also, like Tierology says, it's risky. Walkie - D Tier. It's useful in casual runs where individual players need help from each other. Stun Grenade - C Tier. Only useful if the giant is camping your loot late at night, or if you make mistakes with giants in general. Spray Paint - F Tier. All my gamers just remember where we came from, and there's so many techs in the game to know where you are that you don't really need spray paint. Key - S Tier. I couldn't put this anywhere else. Keys make it so you can full clear, and they are free to carry and because they're consumable, they free your inventory slot when you use them. Signal Translator - S Tier. Info is vital, any time you can use signal translator is a huge help to your team. I don't recommend staying on ship just to use it unless you're on facility but when you need it it's absolutely life-saving (jesters). Shovel - S Tier (#3). Buy 2 with your first $60 of the run. Best dollars you'll ever spend. Shotgun - S Tier (#2). I mean, what else? Jetpack - S Tier (#1). Getting your loot back faster. Teleporter - C Tier. You only need it if people get in trouble, and it's useless to bring back bodies if you already spent all your money. I would put it in D or F, but you might need it to save people from Jesters. That's all, have a nice day.
Shouldn't the less weight of the normal flashlight be considered? Having better speed because of less weight also helps you clear faster, which is a definitive advantage over the pro. I really don't think it deserves F.
Why does the Signal Translator replaces the Loud Horn? The sound Sinal Translator makes when broadcasting do not affects dogs, and sincerely if your crewmates have walkies you doesn't need it at all.
no, the only time you'd use it is at the beginning, and at that point, the money is better spent on lockpicks or shovels. The flashlight is unbelievably useless at it's function. @@JetEriksen
For the handheld map, maybe it could have a mechanic that makes it glitch out. Power cutting for a few seconds, showing things are aren’t there, or not showing things that are there for small amounts of time. It’d make it unreliable, but you’d be able to roughly figure out what’s what, and if you’re not sure you can ask the ship commander.
lockpicker should honestly be in f-. If you really feel the need to unlock doors just get like 3 keys that would have never been used anyway. lockpicker is heavy and takes 30 goddamn seconds to open 1DOOR.
Ladder is S tier, I once flew of the spaceship before landing because someone placed it in front of me and it fell on my head, 10/10 item i have good memories with it.
35:50 It seems that there is a mod that affect your mapper it does not work like that on vanilla as soon as you are outside the ship, the screen become static (you will not see movement, items, enemies in real time unlike the ship one) and you need to press left click to update it wich use battery, wich mean you have to be cautious to not waste it. Also you can't change the player POV, it's always using the one defined on the ship, so again you need to be cautious when teleporting pepoles or simply giving the mapper to someone else
You can use the basic flashlight as a way to lure away eyeless dogs with its low cost and the delivery rockets loud jingle, but it’s not really the flashlight that’s good, just the price.
i think zapgun should be A tier because it can save runs in single player because you can stun monster and run past them if your in a dead end. it has saved my singleplayer and multiplayer runs countless times.
10:46 I think they mean collecting the hives when taking off when there is more than 1 (you can get 2 if done well but 3 and beyond is probably impossible)
TZP also changes your voice when talking, and i use it often as a fun item Sometimes when using the loud horn, the dogs will come running into the ship instead of going infront of it, so its better to close the door when using it And you dont have to have 2 people for the radar booster, but of course if you want to stun enemys near your teammates, you would need 2, but if u just put it outside the ship not, i see many people doing that even tho its better to bring with you inside I once had a bug, that the rend map didnt fully cleared, which made it so that we could still see the spray paint from last round The teleporter doesnt fully remove the how i like to call it dead body taxes, you will still lose a small % of your money, idk how much, but its way less then when u dont get the body
My friends and I have our own codes X(x) = Danger(x) L(x) = Loot(x) R = Real fire exit (we played modded most of the time) Run = Literally, just run as far as you can Leave = I don’t need to explain lmao
We found use in the regular flashlights when they went on sale for like 4 credits, so we bought like a dozen of them as spares when something inevitably happens to our pro flashlights.
I think that's the point of the regular flash light, it's disposable like a glowstick that doesn't glow anymore. Better then having nothing for a short while.
Hey zap gun inst that bad, you can also use it to save a friend lifes by stunning the forest keeper when he grab someone Im not sure but it probably work too whit the old bird too, very good considering old birds are inmune to the flash bangs Or to kill a gigant stuning him whit it and having all the other creews to hit him

It usually takes me seeing 10-20 of a channel videos before I decide if they deserve a subscribe but just seeing this one video and how amazing it is I knew I had to subscribe. Also you did an amazing job at keeping your viewers hooked! Congrats on being the first RUclipsr that has got me to watch a full 30+ minute video! You are able to explain the use of the items, cost, strategies and ability’s withought getting the veiwer bord. Prob one of the most deserved subs I have ever done
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed
@@Tierology I think your mapper was bugged.
Whenever I spawn it in, the display works normally when in the ship, but as soon as you leave it freezes, and will only update the display every time you use some charge.
This is probably how it was supposed to work, as you would only have 20 uses, and its range isn't very far.
Idky yours didn't stop updating when you left the ship.

Boombox is S tier. Prove me wrong
Sure
Sounds good to me 👍
I won’t I will agree
I agree with you
It has a battery life they need to change that
Actually, the walkies battery lasts for a good percentage of the day. Solo players can use it's power bar as a indicator. Letting them know when to go back to the ship
if you talk into them it uses more battery, if you just have them on then they can last all day
Using a walkie in Solo is just a bad idea. You already only get 4 TOTAL item slots, one will probably be a weapon or Flashlight. The talkie is a waste of a slot.
@@roysamuels9468 true honestly
@@roysamuels9468 Why would you use the Walkie in solo? There's no one on the other end. Walkies in Duos or more, and it's immediately amazing again and often worth sacrificing a shovel or (pro) flashlight for
30:58 Correction, Eyeless Dogs can be killed with 3 shots from the Shotgun, Sometimes it may seem like they are Invincible to the Shotgun due to Hit Registration messing up.
Yeah I thought the immunity was a glitch but wasn't sure, thanks. I still think the shotgun is the worst way to kill dogs though
@@TierologyYeah no problem, I agree its an entire waste of ammo lol.
@@Tierology too true, just scream into the mic with a closed door (More than 3 dogs your not killing all the dogs before door pressure runs out)
I think the shovel is pretty balanced because their is definitely a skill gap. A noob can pick it up and kill a snare flea or a lootbug or something but it takes someone more experienced to circle around the tougher enemies and take them down
@@qwertyforwen2342 I agree
boombox is good if you get lost easy in the hallway modules, i just put the boombox at the “start” of where i am and then i can follow back to the music when i want to leave or get lost

Not good if u wanna explore , battery dies , get spray paint is more reliable
@@reidj2226nah walkie takes up a slot
I feel like the zap gun can be so much more. Like it could be one of the very few items that can make solo life so much easier as I think it should be used to stop giants from eating you or at least be able to stun everything a a period of time after the stun ends
I think there should be reward system for how skilled you are at controlling this shit and any time you stun someone they will get aftereffect stun of either same duration or at least half of it to balance it out.
That or at least have light damage Ghostbusters style so some enemies can be killed even more quickly under it's effect.
Maybe the longer you stun it the longer it stays stunned
I think the basic flashlight is heavily underrated.
It's cheap, meaning its expendable, so you can always just drop it if you need the extra inventory.
And it has no weight, meaning there's literally no downside to carrying it around if you plan on dropping it anyways.
In short, the flashlight isn't amazing, but there's just no reason not to bring it if you've got the money anyways, unlike the pro flashlight which weighs something, and thus slows you down.
Actually a decent item, not the worst in the game. And if you know how to manage your battery, you can make it last an entire day easily. Just turn it on only for a second a time to get your bearings, then turn it off again.
I'll even say that if you can manage the battery well, it's better than the pro.
B Tier. Deserves same tier as pro.
Well I don’t know if you could go as far as saying it’s better than the pro but it’s alright
@@zotethegoat I personally prefer it, but that's because I don't find myself needing more brightness, and I can make the battery last for all the time I need it.
I think it should be C or D. It helps with early game if you still need more money for other stuff or you're broke and can't buy a Pro.
totally agree. The speed difference between 0 and 5lbs weight is suprisingly big. The light is bad but so much better than complete darkness
And you will never feel bad about dropping and forgetting about it just like a scumbag throwing their trash out the car window
@@JetEriksenI would agree on that if I can see anything with the flashlight
21:18 nah the duck is doing that goku stare meme💀💀💀
Taking in the green flashlight and leaving it behind is the point!!!
Not for me, personally, I find the game to be a bit too easy so only using it not only makes it a bit harder, but also more spooky

Just a small addition to the DIY flashbang : you can actually throw it if you spam left click, and you will take no damage. You can't throw it as as far away as the regular stun grenade because it explodes much faster than it.
You'll still get blinded, but you can at least negate the -20 damage that you would take otherwise!
The ladder being in C tier will make sense once Zeekers patches the ladder clip exploit
Is it patched yet?
@@kirbpostor Not yet

@@samuelmoreira9606
Press yourself against a wall and activate the extension ladder right next to you. The ladder will gain a collision box while it's touching you, which will push you away from it into the wall. Repeat until you're fully clipped inside.
@@thecrimsoncreep6665 thanks, and if I recall correct, you can do that inside the facility, once you get clipped and fall, you get back to the entrance
I remember when everyone thought the jetpack was just a stupid gimmick item, glad people are finally coming around on it. Best item in the game for me despite the cost
The lock picker saved an entire run of mine one time. I was a playing with one other friend, and it was the last day. He had died to a jump (L bozo) and we were short of quota, and it was late. However, I had remembered about a locked door close to the main entrance that had a 90 dollar laser pointer on the other side (it was so close it could be scanned form the other side) we had to some spare cash, so I rushed to the ship, and thankfully I was on experimentation (literally every other moon was stormy, flooded, or eclipsed) so I made it fairly quickly. I ordered a lock picker, rushed back to the door, got the laser pointer, and quickly got the most valuable items at the main entrance and dashed to the ship. Although a dog was blocking my path, I was able to get past it and the moment I got on the ship it hit midnight and the ship automatically lifted off and we made quota. For that reason I consider it S tier.
Start of video and im going to instantly defend the flashlight. I always bring the complaints with the flashlight down to a skill issue. If you constantly toggle on and off the flashlight when you could use some more light, and commit what you see to memory. It's really good. Takes up no weight and because it's cheap as heck, you can drop it with no repercussions to take loot instead. I actively play the game using constant pinging to see. Which helps detect walls, enemies, traps, loot I otherwise wouldn't have noticed, etc.
So whenever I use the flashlight, I actually find it as something of a luxury I seldom indulge in. Generally the equipment I bring in is the stun grenade, maybe a shovel, or a key.
I think the flashlight is just a misused piece of equipment that serves a different purpose and role than the pro flashlight. Which is usefully for densely dark, wide open areas like in the manor and circle connector hallways in industrial facilities. As well as needing to be actively relied upon for safety and information gathering of your surroundings. 5 weight doesn't sound like much on paper, but it adds up with all the other junk you pick up, and often times, 5 weight makes the difference between being dead and living to see another quota.
I get why everyone hams on the flashlight, but I often find the accepted and spread mentality to be damaging to the usefulness the flashlight can provide. It all comes down to how you use the equipment and the strategies you employ with it. Get creative with the equipment lads, you never know the possibilities they can provide for you if you just approach them in a different way.
The spray paint is so awesome, usually go to each fire exit with it and spray the safe and real fire exists. (We play with the mimic mod)
And create paths from the main entrance so we don’t get lost.
Ok but fr ladders are insane on titan, i found out that by opening the ladder just on the edge of the downwards stairs on the large platform, you can literally drop items straight on to the ship and make them count (if you have been dropping them off the main entrance exterior). Plus giants are barely an issue. When you have finished transferring, you can just take the ladder, and jump from the railing and land right next to the ship. You can even make it onto the ship if you have a low weight.
you should email me a clip of doing this i want to see
So rare to see a tier list starting from the bottom, you actually kept up my interest till the end with this strategy, good video!
EXCUSE ME LOCK PICKER IN B TEIR!!?? You find way more keys than you need, and keys aren't worth anything, so just hoard them on the ship and you will almost always have a key on you because of how common they are or it will take you like 20 seconds to get to the ship and back. And if it's really stumping you just go fire exit because you will have more luck there anyways. ALSO like just scan or look through a door to see if you need a key because quite a bit of them are just dead ends and you will be saving more keys for later. Also if you really don't need keys that much just give it to a hoarder bug. Also imagine the pain of lugging around a lock picker every time you go in🤮
I suggest you move it down to F
infinite keys 🤑
Bros pressed about a lock picker 😂 I use them because they look cool and come in handy when the ship has no keys
so you’re telling me you will hoard the keys and keep going back to the ship to pick up keys. or is your whole squad going to have keys in your inventory? it’s pretty dumb what you’re saying lad
@@ilovefentnylIf you can't find 3 keys in one minute you're not pressing right mouse

Gotta say, it's nice to be along for the ride at the start of a channel for once. Here's to 1,000 soon!
green flashlight in F? if you keep it on the whole time yea it's gonna be an F, but i only turn it on when checking corners and entering a new walkway. plus being so cheap, it's very disposable, which is actually a good thing because if it's too risky you don't have to go back to main and die trying to get a flashlight that ultimately costs 0, according to the company.
Once had a stack of 24 green flashlights because they went on special lol, once you get used to them they become pretty neat
@@Carrot_attacker88 they were lovely for solo runs and for just having that slight extra speed for running from giants
@@marioisawesome8218 yep and with conservative use they have a long life, the pro flashlights are still great for higher quota runs when you have the spare cash to buy stacks but I love my green flashlights lol
I'm glad you can comment
I was trying so hard to say the green flashlights were goated but for some reason my comments you say error 404 and dissappear when I came back to the video
@5:25 Don't know if someone's mentioned this, but you were always able to kill Bracken with shovel-strafing. The weight has nothing to do with it (although it helps) as you are able to perform the same strafing method with a Stop Sign and Yield Sign
Doing it with a Yield Sign requires some crazy good reaction tho lol
@@SereneLeskovsky Yeah, never done it but I’ve never really needed too. I’m sure if you’re going for crazy HQ runs it’s a good skill to have down pat
me watching this video knowing damn well my friends wont let me buy anything (I have a reputation for buying spray paint and goofing off):
Interestingly, The Regular flashlight was used in the current quota WR, although when I asked in Bread's comment section why it was one of the other players. I think generally the only reason sometimes its prefered is the lack of weight, and arguably the fact that it can be more easily be abandonded as it costs less.
Extension ladder could well be buffed in v50, given the changes to slopes coming. Also on mansion interiors they can help you get some lamps that spawn inside kitchen counters.
Imo, spray paint should be B Tier. Useful to mark out where you've already explored or where locked doors are, but on mansion interiors you don't need to know the way back to at main - only fire. I'd rate lockpicker higher any day, even if it is slow as hell.
Those unimplemented scrap items are pretty cool. I feel like the binoculars could be strong if they let you see through the fog on high tier moons, though arguably some form of Night Vision goggles does fit that sort of idea better - although I don't think that making them as heavy as you suggested would really make sense, completely dumpsters the item, given I feel that is most useful when you're doing trips with loot on rend or dine - and without a 2 hander. Already not having 2 handers makes it kinda defunct to jetpack, so makes it something hardly worth roaming with - but with a low weight it could still be worth it. Could be good to scope out for teammates from what direction they are giant-aggroe'd though. I feel like the implementation of such an item could vary in a lot of ways that would massively change the item.
Hope the survival kit gets like fixed, like if it were the starting 60 credits it would be pretty good, heck change it such that its 3 flashlights and 2 walkies and thats arguably more balanced. First quota using walkies is hardly worth it anyway, and same goes for using flashlights really.
I always end up having like 5 keys inside the ship, I'd rate lockpicker F tier.
As my groups Ship Guy, I'd like to say that the standard Flashlight is generally something I keep on hand. The lesser lighting means very little on the ship, the lesser battery just means you have to recharge it more often, assuming you even need to use it, because it's for pretty much for 2 things: Lightning Strikes and Remote Trolling. I have no reason to carry the Pro, and now that the Kidnapper Fox is in the game, losing a standard Flashlight means less than a Pro Flashlight.
On that topic, rotate your terminal around so it blocks you from the door to prevent the fox from taking you. I did this before the foxes were even added because it made me feel safer, but now it actually does make me safer.
loud horn is so useful on titan with friends or even solo when you need to have a clear path. it almost completely removes the threat of dogs entirely as long as one guy is using the horn. you can even use the horn to get dogs away from the front door if you are trying to kill them and a teammate needs to get in
devils advocate, I use the baby flashlight specifically because it is so cheap and worthless that it can be treated as a disposable item. We buy them in bulk, and bring one into the facility. as soon as I need the inventory slot, I just drop it in the facility and bring a new one on the next stage. it gives you the benefit of having a flashlight (even though the light beam sucks) without the biggest problem, which is the inventory slot.
Real quick: Extensions ladders are way better than C tier. If you don't find them very useful, it's because you aren't being very creative with it. It's a portable platform/vertical ascension tool. The possibilities are more varied than you think.
I also think the mapper, with some tweaks, could be a cool item. Basically just turn it into the Motion Tracker from Alien: Isolation, because that is such an amazing horror game tool that I think it belongs in Lethal Co.
Also, a signal translator code me and my buddies like to use is "Ship Crit" as in "Ship Critical." Basically, if something dangerous is near the ship, this lets people know before they just run up to the ship.
Inverse teleporter in B tier is the craziest thing of this video. It is useless, so dangerous, it is basically a certain death. It's better if you just choose another moon with less outdoor problems.
Flashlight is way more op than you're making it seem. Its just a cheaper, lighter pro-flashlight. 5lbs isn't that much but its enough that it does impact your run, and when you use the "flash" strategy where your flashlight is only on for a second or two at a time the flashlight can last a whole run.
Or you can just use the pro one with the same strat but 100% better.....but you dont have too.
The regular flashlight basically REQUIRES it
@@SATELLITEDOWN7735 The battery life isn't as much of a hinderance as the range, the only reason that pro is better in my opinion is that it has way worse range, most runs I discard my flashlight before it runs out anyways.
Tbh I think the zap gun should be at least in C tier, while yeah you CAN kill stuff without it, the zap gun makes those kills much more consistent and way easier, so if you have the credits to spare you should always buy one, and have another teammate equip a shovel to easily clear out any killable enemies
1. Whoever recorded the footage sucks with the zap gun
2. The zap gun has a really good use to BUY TIME
Most obvious is the jester,but other monsters you would like to zap as well, since you got 5 seconds of sprint, the zap gun can give you that little of bit of stamina you need to escape, also it gives you time to think, as someone who doesn't work the best under stress the zap gun gives me a moment to react and think about my options.
Me and my crew always bring a boom box into the facility, just to keep the vibes up.
you forgot that the horn makes the giant go away from the ship
Honestly respect for actually being honest and for the little nightmares 2 music I’m surprised you don’t have 1000 subs
24:27 YES
So glad someone uses the spray paint like exit signs in big buildings. I've had people tell me it's dumb and isn't helpful for some reason.
no frickin way is green flashlight F tier. It's 0 weight and cheap cost lets you grab a bundle of them and give them to your shovel warrior- multiple mobs require having no weight other than the shovel in your inventory to easily fight them, namely spiders and if you're bold, bracken. It's cheap cost lets you toss it away on a high tier moon for another small loot item without feeling guilty for abandoning it, and the lack of weight improves your mobility. If its the only item you bring, bring a pro light, but if you're bringing something else and still want a little light for a bit bring a green. you can also use the dropped light as a landmark. It's at WORST a C tier.
The battery life can also track the time
boombox is ABSOLUTELY awesome especially with a custom song mod
you forgot to mention TZP gives you funny voice which is always A tier
Base flashlight is great if ur running shovel. Battery life is easy to get around.
I like the basic flashlight. If you've played the game a lot you dont need to use much light at all in the facility so having the ability to see in little bursts to check for traps and layout can be pretty good. What exactly do you need the extra power of the pro flashlight for anyway? plus, the weightlessness and low cost makes it cheap enough to dispose of without a second thought if you find some deep in loot.
The boombox however has no net positive effect. It can be used to lure slimes but attempting this is a complete waste of time and credits when you can just jump over it, go around it or failing all that, go explore other branches until the slime has moved
Have a sub and a message for your video. Well deserved. Lots of handy info for new players.
underrated, i hope you blow up
your content is chill, exactly what im looking for.
thanks for everithing, tierology.
Why do you want him to explode?
@@thedragonfox6699 i dont mean litteraly O-O but i want his videos to get more views and attention because he deserves it thats what i mean
The flashlight is nice because it doesn't slow you at all. The battery doesn't matter if you're careful and sparing with how you use it, and so its just preferable to the heavier alternative. I typically dont need to see much more than it provides, and the ping provides enough on its own to shore up any issues. Probably B tier or A tier considering its the only weightless light source.
The Zap Gun changes the shape of the slimes which makes them easier to avoid, and stops even the Giant in its tracks which is good if a buddy is left outside
Ive also found the boombox pretty useful for finding the exit. can drop it at the door when you go in, or have a friend drop it there, and it can make it easier to find your way out. I find it especially useful if you like to inverse into the map, and have friends that dont inverse. extra useful if you play with mods such as the mimic mod, since you can place it at the real fire exit, making the mimic exits easier to avoid
Green flashlight is my favorite, it weights 0 and costs really cheap, i use it even if i can buy a pro flashlight
1. "Cost really cheap" bro u can find 10 money is easily
2. 5 ib isnt a big amount
I have a joke strat with the Jetpacks, on modded rooms where the people usually have a ton of credits cheated in, the jetpack serves as a ship defensive system at the cost of your own life. If someone is running away and they happened to get stuck between tons of dogs and giants while the other players are on the ship, I pack up the jetpack, aim for the most damage and then launch myself to die, and explode.
The normal flashlight is neat for having it as a backup. It doesn't hurt to just drop it and pick scrap up in its place, but if the pro-flash bearer succumbs to a Hole In The Ground then you can still light your way back outside
something to add to zap. there is a bug with the zap that I call "zoomy glitch". this makes it so that whoever got zapped instead of being slowed they get sped up for some reason. I found out this starts when a player is zapped and they don't move on ship take off. things to note is that the more used the faster the player will get and it will be fixed on player death from what I remember
I think the regular flashlight is pretty good cuz it's so cheap to the point you can bring it with you, explore, and on your way back drop it so that you can carry more items. The cheapness of it allows you to leave it behind, or trade it to loot bugs
That's what I'm saying
I bet bro is either playing on minimum brightness or is playing on Max Brightness and still can't see because giving it to lootbugs is so good and you should already be able to play without seeing much since the whole point is to use the scan button
Flashlight weight < Pro flashlight weight.
some small notes about items im gonna make throughout the video
- Normal Flashlights can be used to better see at night on snowy moons and the vision is actually better than the normal flashlight in this one scenario because the pro flashlight has too much light
- Zap Guns are slightly better now that giants are killable but in the vast majority of scenarios this isnt gonna happen and its better to just use an easter egg if you really need to kill a giant for some reason and still stun grenades are easier to use
- Walkie Talkies can also be used to transmit typed messages to anyone anywhere who has an active walkie talkie which can be somewhat useful if a dog is camping ship BUT the other person has to notice that you even typed in text chat which is the hard part lol
- Stun grenades can be used to kill enemies if you bait them over a mine which is always fun lol
also this is a really informative and well edited video i love it keep it up, almost all of what i said is a very niche use or was added after you made the video so i can tell you play a lot of lethal company lmao
2:00
yea.. you can just leave it when it runs out or you can pick more up, that's the whole point, it's really good actually. I'd say at worst it's C tier.
5:44
I can agree but for different reasons; it's still good, but not that good, it is more useful for GETTING a shot gun and then you just keep it for when you don't have shells.
10:00
If anything because of the really gimmick nature of it, the cost, and the fact that it impairs you so much I'd put that in F, if not barely scraping into D.
20:00
While it is fun and can be somewhat useful; the random dropping being able to kill you not even from turrets just teleporting you into a pit, that along with the fact you can't take anything with you and its cost means I'd put it squarely in F tier, don't get me wrong it is FUN, but it's not good, it can literally kill you.
22:00
The game is meant to be played with more than 1 person, with all of the boons that the walkie gives I'd have to put it in S tier, though it does rely on people listening to you, most of the time that isn't a problem if you are ship mom.
I agree on the first 3, but the inverse tele isnt f tier... probably d. As for walkies, I honestly think they are b at absolute best. With the signal transmitter being a thing, walkies are far less useful bc they take up an entire inventory slot. My groups almost never run walkies, theres so much you can say but so little ship mom can actually do.
@@itsraventm inverse is FUN, if we were ranking FUN it'd be S tier because that thing is VERY fun to use the problem is that it's just not very useful. F might be harsh but it woudn't be much higher
as for walkies, again it depends on your team, if your team listens they are easy s tier if not they are f tier but if we go with the best for it it's s, I was VERY particular about saying the conditions that MAKE it s because realistically it's probably only b tier as you said.
@@itsraventm Walkies are weird, at low or new experience levels, they don't communicate enough to help.
At medium experience with the game they are best to open doors and get loot and inform of enemies
When you know everything or most entities in the game and mechanics, they're nearly useless and waste a lot of loot by taking up an item slot and having someone on the ship not getting loot
4:36 THE DOUBLE MASK IS CRAZY
7:50
..
The spray can is easily the most underrated item, I always bring it with me
Deep rock galactic music rocks hard. Damn good choice
Tzp can actually be used to make yourself a mine sweeper,don’t ask how I know
Nice vid man. İ really was able to learn a couple things. Keep up the grind👍
you still loose 8% of your credits for every death, even if the body was recovered.
unrecovered bodies give a -20% credit penalty, so 2.5 times the small penalty
i feel like the radar booster needs to be higher then B tier. it makes you immune to alot of entities (espicially forest giants which allow for good vow runs) and it allows you to see where the loot may/might be. or if theres entitys.
When he was talking about walkie talkies, the camera was following the monitored guy how tid he do that?
Maybe the binoculars could’ve made scrap give off a little shiny glow and make enemies get vaguely highlighted, there’s usually scenarios where you can’t see some monsters due to it being night.
The green flashlight is far better than you gave it credit for.
It’s disposable, so you don’t have to worry as much about leaving it for loot.
It’s cheap, so if you have a full four-person crew, you can get one for everybody.
Sure, its battery life isn’t great, but there’s no reason to keep it on all the time. You just need to turn it on when you enter a particularly dark area, and then turn it off again once you know where you’re going.
It won’t weigh you down, and can save your life in the early game.
I agree with most of the stuff in this video. Pretty cool!
Great video! Love the little nightmares music haha
How is lockpick S rank i never knew lock picker existed
One use for walkie talkies that wasn't touched upon is to use it as a watch.
Since the battery lasts over a full day, if you charge your battery in orbit and turn it on upon landing, you can use the battery levels on the walkie to estimate the time of day or memorize the time for certain corresponding points in the battery life (About 3:30-4:00 for half battery and midnight at about 20% battery). Can be convenient for solo runs too since you know to beware of giants and dogs at half battery and to get out of the facility at about 25-30% for late night runs. Also good for ship duty so they can estimate the time and communicate it with the people inside without having to leave the terminal.
Regular flashlights are good when playing with four players since you can buy four of them at the beginning of quota. It’s also a nice idea to buy a couple in case people die and lose pro flashlights before the selling day
Agree that TZP is mainly for desperation plays. Not for constant use. It's like a ship upgrade, something you can use when you need it.
If you have trouble finding the exit, leave the Boombox at an important junction that leads back to the entrance, or on the entrance door itself to find your way back.
The Zap Gun is also great at eliminating hard to kill enemies or taking on multiple enemies. I slay Brackens, Dogs, and entire groups of Masks with the Zap Gun. You can also use it far more times than a Shotgun, and you can recharge it to get back full ammo. I always keep one Zap Gun in the locker for emergencies, like holding back a horde of dogs, clearing the extract of masks, or killing a camping Bracken so we can steal the loot it was guarding.
Here's my tier list - keep in mind this is just based on how I play and what's important to me in game.
Green flashlight - F Tier. It's barely useful. Just buy a pro flashlight.
Boombox - F Tier. Never buy it. It's a waste of your credits. Slime is not a threat.
Zap gun - C Tier. Its only real use is to trap Jesters without waiting for them to start winding up. You can kill everything easily without it and it's a huge waste of money and an item slot.
Extension Ladder - A Tier. You need it on Rend to get lamps stuck in the kitchen. You want it on Titan to get loot back twice as fast.
TZP Inhalant - B Tier. Paired with a jetpack it's incredibly useful to carry back large items while your jetpack person runs small items, but that's basically its only use.
Loud Horn - F Tier. Just use the Signal Translator.
Pro Flashlight - S Tier. On top of all the advantages Tierology described in the video, the flashlight simply helps you clear faster, which is the most useful thing an item can do.
Radar Booster - F Tier. Just use a stun grenade, or hide from giants.
Lockpicker - S Tier. Saves runs from being lost when you find a locked door at fire (or 5).
Inverse Teleporter - C Tier. Feels like going in to fire exit, it's faster, but you get less of a mental map for the facility. Also, like Tierology says, it's risky.
Walkie - D Tier. It's useful in casual runs where individual players need help from each other.
Stun Grenade - C Tier. Only useful if the giant is camping your loot late at night, or if you make mistakes with giants in general.
Spray Paint - F Tier. All my gamers just remember where we came from, and there's so many techs in the game to know where you are that you don't really need spray paint.
Key - S Tier. I couldn't put this anywhere else. Keys make it so you can full clear, and they are free to carry and because they're consumable, they free your inventory slot when you use them.
Signal Translator - S Tier. Info is vital, any time you can use signal translator is a huge help to your team. I don't recommend staying on ship just to use it unless you're on facility but when you need it it's absolutely life-saving (jesters).
Shovel - S Tier (#3). Buy 2 with your first $60 of the run. Best dollars you'll ever spend.
Shotgun - S Tier (#2). I mean, what else?
Jetpack - S Tier (#1). Getting your loot back faster.
Teleporter - C Tier. You only need it if people get in trouble, and it's useless to bring back bodies if you already spent all your money. I would put it in D or F, but you might need it to save people from Jesters.
That's all, have a nice day.
Shouldn't the less weight of the normal flashlight be considered? Having better speed because of less weight also helps you clear faster, which is a definitive advantage over the pro. I really don't think it deserves F.
Why does the Signal Translator replaces the Loud Horn? The sound Sinal Translator makes when broadcasting do not affects dogs, and sincerely if your crewmates have walkies you doesn't need it at all.
and the extension ladder, if you're ok with glitches, can be used to teleport back at any instance & no price.
@@pedrowalter633 for dogs, it's a lot safer to buy a walkie talkie
no, the only time you'd use it is at the beginning, and at that point, the money is better spent on lockpicks or shovels. The flashlight is unbelievably useless at it's function. @@JetEriksen
Okay hear me out, extension ladder is A because what if ur like 75 ponds and need to cross a gap what then?
29:58 is the time when the banger starts playing in the background
Respect
I think the regular flashlight is a a tier cus if hoarding bugs attack you give it to them
yep
For the handheld map, maybe it could have a mechanic that makes it glitch out. Power cutting for a few seconds, showing things are aren’t there, or not showing things that are there for small amounts of time. It’d make it unreliable, but you’d be able to roughly figure out what’s what, and if you’re not sure you can ask the ship commander.
lockpicker should honestly be in f-. If you really feel the need to unlock doors just get like 3 keys that would have never been used anyway. lockpicker is heavy and takes 30 goddamn seconds to open 1DOOR.
A lot of weights in the video are wrong
Shovels aren't 8lb, they are 14lb
Flashbangs aren't 4lb they are 5lb
Idk who needs to hear this but intense flashing lights warning on the radar booster part 14:00
where would you rank the 2 new equipment items?
I will re-rank everything when v50 officially releases
Ladder is S tier, I once flew of the spaceship before landing because someone placed it in front of me and it fell on my head, 10/10 item i have good memories with it.
They should make the mapper really expensive (1000 credits for 1) and have like a 2 and a half minutes battery life
35:50 It seems that there is a mod that affect your mapper
it does not work like that on vanilla
as soon as you are outside the ship, the screen become static (you will not see movement, items, enemies in real time unlike the ship one) and you need to press left click to update it wich use battery, wich mean you have to be cautious to not waste it. Also you can't change the player POV, it's always using the one defined on the ship, so again you need to be cautious when teleporting pepoles or simply giving the mapper to someone else
So the truck is S tier, glad everyone agreed on that with no qualms
You can use the basic flashlight as a way to lure away eyeless dogs with its low cost and the delivery rockets loud jingle, but it’s not really the flashlight that’s good, just the price.
The shovel absolutely does not need a nerf.
i think zapgun should be A tier because it can save runs in single player because you can stun monster and run past them if your in a dead end. it has saved my singleplayer and multiplayer runs countless times.
Stun Grenade
@@SereneLeskovsky but stun grenade takes some time to use.
10:46 I think they mean collecting the hives when taking off when there is more than 1 (you can get 2 if done well but 3 and beyond is probably impossible)
TZP also changes your voice when talking, and i use it often as a fun item
Sometimes when using the loud horn, the dogs will come running into the ship instead of going infront of it, so its better to close the door when using it
And you dont have to have 2 people for the radar booster, but of course if you want to stun enemys near your teammates, you would need 2, but if u just put it outside the ship not, i see many people doing that even tho its better to bring with you inside
I once had a bug, that the rend map didnt fully cleared, which made it so that we could still see the spray paint from last round
The teleporter doesnt fully remove the how i like to call it dead body taxes, you will still lose a small % of your money, idk how much, but its way less then when u dont get the body
It's 20% of you don't get the body and it's 8% if you do get the body.
Little nightmares ost is a great choice man
My friends and I have our own codes
X(x) = Danger(x)
L(x) = Loot(x)
R = Real fire exit (we played modded most of the time)
Run = Literally, just run as far as you can
Leave = I don’t need to explain lmao
We found use in the regular flashlights when they went on sale for like 4 credits, so we bought like a dozen of them as spares when something inevitably happens to our pro flashlights.
What a great and professional video, congrats!
Boombox can be placed on the ground and wont use battery, and if you place it on the entrace and it may help you if you're lost.
+ Morale boost for a team
What about laser pointer?
It doesn't really have any in game mechanics it just emits light same as the fancy lamp so its not included.
I think that's the point of the regular flash light, it's disposable like a glowstick that doesn't glow anymore.
Better then having nothing for a short while.
Ladder can be used to clip into walls, like the counter in mansion to find extra loot sometimes
Hey zap gun inst that bad, you can also use it to save a friend lifes by stunning the forest keeper when he grab someone
Im not sure but it probably work too whit the old bird too, very good considering old birds are inmune to the flash bangs
Or to kill a gigant stuning him whit it and having all the other creews to hit him
