I should mention that goop is different on console and PC. Goop slows down the players sensitivity which allows you to avoid damage by walking around them. PC, this usually doesn't work as well because they can nudge their screen a lot and avoid the sensitivity. It doesn't help that Chomper has a huge hit box. If you want to avoid damage, you have to approach from the side of the back because of the sensitivity difference. The effect is more powerful the lower the players sensitivity which is also stupid. Note: controller on PC and Keyboard and mouse on Xbox can't take advantage of this.
I don't think it really works that way, I play on keyboard/mouse on PC with sens literally as high as i can set it, and i have to move my mouse from one side of the mousepad to the other like 3 times to even turn 180°
Good news, I don't plan on stopping anytime soon, but things will probably slow down a bit. Life has decided to catch up with me so I've got a bit less time for RUclips right now, but I'll make stuff when I can!
You should do a goop kill counter for the amount of times you get goop kills, it baffles me how many times it's happened and it's only been 2 episodes! Also, no fear, he's still helping.
When using spikeweed if you dont want to swallow just back off a little and distance yourself you can still chomp but won't be in range to swallow makes it very nice for just spikeweeding and nabbing a kill before burrowing and getting another quickly Also enjoying the gw2 vids and editing keep it up!
I actually played a bunch of Armor Chomper in GW1 and had a lot of fun and decent results with that. The landscape was pretttty different at that juncture IIRC...
Yeah, I've never tried to consider just how different Chompers must've felt to play GW1. An era where they don't have to worry about Imps sounds phenomenal.
Another banger from the one and only Captain Flare, this part also made me realize how much of a good attitude you have while playing, you’re always being a good sport even when things don't go your way, and I appreciate that Also my favorite part was 17:42
at 1:45, when he fully ate him and died for it. I get that all the time too. Even though I do main Chompers, I find the ability to back-chomp them to insta-kill them to be a double edged sword. Sure you can instantly kill a zombie, but you become venerable for a bit. I feel your pain there....
In fact, most of the armor characters are pretty crap. If it was possible to completely rework them, they could retain their original health, get slowed down, but in return get increased damage and have a shield effect (similar to those of z-mechs, Superbeans, pirates in a barrel, etc.).
6:16 after going over this section a few times, you placed your spikeweed on the left side of the SB which caused it to miss. Also it didn't help that he was in party time so it's a bit harder to time it right.
Part of me thinks it might be better to run Chomp Cannon on this? A direct hit followed by a few chomps should be enough to kill just about anything that isn't a mech, and would allow some mitigation of the limited range.
Naw he should be winning matchups up close via goop into spikeweed anyways, under-utilization of spikeweed is the main problem with that so far. Taking away chomper's best support and utility option for something less consistent and with twice the cooldown just to occasionally one tap 2 classes isn't very worth it at all. He'd be more generally "successful" by doing more sidelining and using goop largely for the sake of supporting teammates too, but that also doesn't make for very good footage I'd imagine.
@@emilydioptase Personally, I find that typical goop is what I need to win Imp encounters. They're too fast and bouncy for me to get close enough without slowing them down first. (Plus my Chomp Cannon aim is really quite bad, you'll see that in part 3)

Ooh, you're right. Well, I did just nab GW1 for PC with the sale that happened recently... (Though I'll probably do nothing with that info because sadly I do not have infinite free time)
I maxed armored chomper in just 6 hours, idk if im a freak but i feel like chomp cannon helps way more than goop. You can one shot imps and scientist which i just found way more useful. Also stay hopeful even though he sucks, double health boost lets you eat zpgs and imp punts ez.💀💀💀
Yeah, this is actually so true. I cut out a lot of deaths to make these videos, but believe me, a lot of them have been because my opponent just takes a few steps backwards while blasting my huge head.
Armor chomper wasent bad in the first game cause it was more slower pace, I think because how much faster gw2 plays armor chomper and most chompers in general just won’t perform well. Outside of grabbing a burrow kill then getting lit up by the entire zombie team
Armor chomper, as with all other chompers, bordered on completely unusable in gw1. Compared to gw2 they had slower movespeed across the board, worse biting hitboxes, all of them but exactly armor had worse damage outputs, slower swallowing (not that swallowing was ever good ofc), spikeweed did not arm instantly in gw1 and thus had almost no real in-combat utility, gw1 regen mechanics let them get poked down to "permanent" half health while not having good ways to poke at enemies back, the maps were significantly more vertical and therefore completely unkind to chompers, goop's sensitivity drop could be largely counteracted on console via having high sensitivity (this is now "fixed" on gw2 console making goop significantly stronger), gw1 engineer had significantly less counterplay than gw2 engineer and was a very hard counter, and in general chompers just felt clunkier in gw1 previous to many qol changes. They were so bad lol
@@johnbiff2664 Interesting, I didn't consider how much stuff like the half-health regen mechanics would make an impact. Glad I'm doing this in GW2, then.
Yeah unfortunately, you can no longer get the unicorn chomper. The replacement for this is the midnight snack upgrade, but unfortunately the chomper is slightly worse than the unicorn chomper. But you can level up the unicorn chomper in the town hall event, I'm not sure which event it was but there should be a rotation table online. This realy sucks for new Player and for old player which didnt played enough (Like me because I was a little kind at this time). Btw. the dead line was 2017.
personally, not the worst. I would argue that chomp thing is worse performing than armor chomper. At least Armor Chomper has the health and damage to compete and be an actual melee class, chomp thing has no health, no benefit like fire or speed boost on swallow, all he has is more health regen than the other chomper.
Thanks! I got a friend of mine join my backyard to record it. It's interesting trying to make stuff like that in GW2, as they had to back themselves up against a car to keep their character out of the shot.
@@captainflarethis is my other account, I meant unicorn chomper can only be gotten through mods ( 2:40 ) wow auto correct did me dirty on the first one

I don't think it really works that way, I play on keyboard/mouse on PC with sens literally as high as i can set it, and i have to move my mouse from one side of the mousepad to the other like 3 times to even turn 180°
@@RiftyLuca even if it takes you 3 times, that's way too fast compared to console. I can't even avoid damage from a mech when playing hot rod.

So many deaths have come from this pain, many of which are totally cut out of the video just because it happens so much.

Yeah, it feels like there was a lot more potential for them than just putting their speed down and their health up.

Moon base z overall is a harder map for most chompers.
And yet, I get it so often when playing as one. Keeps things interesting, I suppose.
1:42 Here's a tip if you don't want to swallow someone and bite them to death jump before you bite and then you won't be able to swallow by accident
Oh! I never thought of that, that's a great idea!
Normally chompers are kinda zombie deleters since they instantly kill zombies and then either live or die to continue deleting zombies from existence
Ah, the fabled two outcomes of eating a zombie: I either instantly get killed or I don't.
Well, guy couldn't handle the goop what can i say ... howdy
