Hive Tyrant Devourers

[dirtycrabcakes]

I've seen multiple people post that they run HTs with 2x Twin Linked Devourers.

I'm guessing this means that you can essentially replace the bone sword/lash whip with Devourers by way of replacing them with Scything talons?

[biorivera]

You can replace the arm weapon biomorphs with any paired weapon biomorph(ex. set of brainleech devourers, or set of lashwhip and bonesword) or dual arm weapon(ex. heavy venom cannon)

A hive tyrant with scything talons can replace one set of talons, or both at the whim of whoever is building it so long as they're sure it's a biomorph allowed by the hive tyrant.

Ex. You can have, lashwhip and bonesword and A set(aka 2 arms) of brainleech devourers.

Or dual sets of scything talons(aka 4 scything talons).

Or Scything talons and bonesword+lash

Or Scything talons and a Heavy venom cannon

Hope that helps!

That does help, but just to verify -

It's completely legal for me to take a flyrant with 2 twin-linked devourers. He would get no CC weapons other than having a basic CCW. Correct?

You really would benefit from having the codex.

I own the codex, you (please do not swear) jack-ass. The confusion comes from the part that says:

"Replace any set of scything talons with..." when he only comes equipped with 1 set of scything talons by default.

That's where the "any" comes in, to confirm that both your defailt talons and the ones you can switch the lash whip and bonesword for can be swapped out.

Thanks - that's what I figured, I just wanted to confirm. Appreciate it.

Being a jerk to people ain't gonna get ya far, Coredump wasnt being rude. It sounded like you don't have the Codex because it's a very easy to solve question with the Codex.

I thought it was extremely rude, and your stereotypical neckbeard response to a "noob" question. It's the type of response that most people wouldn't say to my face, so yeah... I took offense to it.

Obviously I didn't find it "very easy" and wanted confirmation.

So if, that's rude then go (please do not swear) yourself. Once you finish getting yourself off, go ahead and finish give coredump his reach around. Ban the (please do not swear) (please do not swear) out of me - I don't need to be on this forum. How's that for being rude?

It's rude to not read forum rules. You clearly didn't do that based off the content of your angry response messages. There's a reason your messages keep bleeping out words.....non-adults browse this site.

Also you got really confrontational off the bat, and while I agree coredumps comment might have been pre-mature(I have the belief our mods should take extra special care of what they say personally, they are after-all the rule following example of how we're to behave- so more kindness should probably have been extended first as to attract more members); I don't think it warranted anywhere near the response you gave back. We're civilized people here, not a bunch of raging 12 year olds or bitter old rule nazi's(well, at least I don't think I am).

I mean what do you do when someone gives you a slightly dirty look give them the finger? I'm not saying you are an adult, but expect me to hold you to that standard on this forum.

well it seems we've reached our asshat quota for today.

I do think coredump, lately, has been underreading posts... though whoever that was needs to... take a chill pill?

No, I have just been on my phone a lot lately (instead of computer) so I have not been able to respond in as much detail as usual.

And somehow you keep mis-reading what I am trying to get across.



Either he dropped, or got banned. Oh well.

That escalated quickly.......haha.

I am not attacking you... dont ever assume that.

The OP was in a nutshell, "So, I see people are taking Dual devourers on their hive tyrants. It it true they are able to do this because you can exchange LW/BS with Scything talons and then exchange those"

Your response was "get a codex" <--- this is not word for word but is how it is read.

Now, he overreacted yes, but nothing in his post suggested he didnt have a codex, so your response seemed just a little bit out of nowhere.
