Trapper Dodging for High Ping? Maybe?

Wonder if there a way to improve the trapper dodging/key registering/timing/iframes maybe?

Able to dodge better on lower pings but its a different story for 200 to 300 or plus ping. Not getting much matchmaking on my side so I always choose other servers. Also the audio gets messed up playing on high ping.

Wonder if theres a way to not screw up the timing for others but get the dodge to somehow work for higher ping.

honestly, timing + luck and not playing ogryn are your only option. Feelsadman

there’s a mod for this but i have no idea if it works well, thought it’s cool tech though

Mod looks interesting. Gotta do some extra work on linux side to install the loader and framework tho. Thank you. Will defo look into this.

If you’re lucky enough to hear the Trapper spawn, camp a doorway. Trappers must have lime of sight to fire, Trapper will attempt to go through the doorway. Doorways solve many problems in Darktide.

It’s better than being bodyblocked by a stupid groaner during a dodge attempt and taking the net.

Finally made time to try the modding on Linux side and Looks like it does help a lot. I see Muties future model 1 to 2 mtrs ahead while they charge. Great mod indeed. Gotta get used to trappers models with the help of this mod.

Thank you for the help.

I basically got used to dodging Trappers with 200 ping, you need to start dodging before the fire sound (so, dodging during the charging)

The mod suggested is really good for getting your footing, but I’d suggest to uninstall it once you got used to the timing

Its crazy audio goes blank for them so I usually hear something when they get (Burster Leap) close. Cant use headphones so you know, its going to be that much difficult to track audio. I did the pop up on screen alert too but I just couldnt keep up with the tracking XD . Gotta dodge hella early tho. Visual indicator really helps. Especially when its crowded and you only hear the regular atk warning sound effect. Lets see if I can get used to this :slight_smile: Thank you

I had one today that basically made no sound at all, normally you dont get any other sound indicator except for the net shot when the audio bugs out, this one did not even do that, i was just suddenly in a net.

Sometimes its just the trapper shot, sometimes you hear it right, sometimes they fire and make sound all at the same time XD Bursters are real pain when the audio gets cut.

I’ll try to get the trapper stuff next time XD

I think fixing the fact that the hitbox extends a good several feet out from the trapper the instant it fires would go a long way to helping.
