Preset 1: you want first slot to be M
Preset 2: you want first slot to be C
Preset 3: you want first slot to be X

Now you can do that after spending 3 catalysts on the same weapon in the same slot. If I understand correctly.
That is how I thought/think it will work. Like for my Valby, I've used a catalyst on every slot, so all loadouts have the same mod types. With the change, I could go to #2 and make a change that would only apply to that loadout to keep things clean vs. having multi-slots on #1 to switch between.

Finally done with this damn thing...

Worth the effort in the end since it's easily the best weapon in the game, but goddamn was it a bitch getting there. Will probably add an M to the SPS slot once season one drops, so that I can swap it for Mental Focus/Sweeping Squad/Weak Point Sight as needed.

I thought with the game having been out now a while the PUGs would be better. Yea theres zero chance The Hanged Man is doable.

Just did a quick test and killed Hanged Man in 15 seconds using my Enzo + Enduring Legacy build. Should be able to do roughly the same no matter what the PUG looks like, add me if you want me to get you through it. (Vorph#2690)

Edit: Tried out Lepic too, this one really cracked me up:

(For reference, Hanged Man only has 27.6M HP+Shield... so the rest of the group literally did nothing.)

Sure thing, will add in game. Just give me a /tell when you have the time. Kinda want to get to the hard modes for some weapon farming.

I think mines "Rak Pipa#3211"

Most pugs I've ran in hard mode win now, except for Obstructor, no wins there yet.

Yeah, that's a weird one to get stuck on. I think I've lost maybe one Obstructor in a PUG ever.

I've asked you this several times now...

What problem are you having with Obstructor?
People die quickly? I had one PUG where everyone was down before we even got to the ball phase. Another PUG couldn't even destroy the prisons, let alone shoot the balls. Not every PUG has a good Bunny, lol.

Your previous question about Obs was when I wasn't even at him yet and I was lamenting the fact that every Lepic build was built for Firearm Master.

Firearm Master really doesn't do as much as people think it does. It'd be different if it was skill power, but it's not, it's skill power modifier. +39% when you've already got a base of +2760% (+20% from Overclock) is pretty trivial. The best part about Firearm Master is being able to do a quick reload right before you pop the ult so that the asshole colossi that back away from you constantly can't get out of range.

For not being as good as ppl think, it sure is popular and it seems to be the rarest of rare drops as I've not gotten 3-5 of all the other transcendent mods it can drop, lol.

Edit: Guess I just need to bitch here, got it on next run. Two Enzo's, Bunny and me. On to FW now.

It's about a 1.5-2% damage increase to the initial impact of each orb. All it really does is buff the DoT that ticks afterwards. Not sure how much exactly but it's a decent amount when it's your only source of skill power mod besides Overclock.

Interview clarifies that catalyzing a mod slot will let you freely change socket type.

So Is it that 1 slot in this 1 tab can now be anything you want? or is it this 1 slot can be what ever you want in any tab?

Sounds like the latter. Their whole point is that they want people to more easily be able to use the presets.

If that's the case, holy shit, what a massive change for the better. And makes changing the default slots actually super worthwhile too.

They also mentioned that S1 will have XP events.... and that they are looking at making leveling up more efficient.

I take all info they've posted recently about changing slots with a huge grain of salt. I'll just wait to see how it actually works ingame. I have enough catalysts saved up now to tweak Lepic / Viessa to have them as I want them.
