Beginner Guide & Tips - The First Descendant 

getting kicked out of the game mid guide is hilarious

Btw when salvaging modules, on the bottom right there is actually a "salvage all duplicates" prompt, which does all your dupes automatically for you, keeping 1 of each for each ammo type

I saw your face and instantly remembered you from Dauntless. Its been a long while, lovely to see you're making other games content now too! Much love OhDough

With a pan like that, I'd recommend just plain wooden or plastic utensils. Metal spatulas are good if you really want to scrape the fond off the pan after developing a deep browning but that's mostly for something like well-seasoned cast iron griddles or grills but you can also use them on seasoned cast iron woks as well (ideally not the slotted kind though). Wooden and plastic utensils are probably the safest bet for any pan though since they're made of relatively soft material and won't be likely to scatch up your pans.

But Dough, the triangle also goes in the square hole

Dude, good to see you on another game I've decided to play. I haven't seen you since i stopped playing Dauntless. Good to see a familiar face making content dor this game. Hope to see more, man.

i'm glad you play the game, I met you through Helldivers, and I signed up instantly when I saw that there's no bullshit with you, you say what you think, which is something rare nowadays. I look forward to new videos of this game. More tips and tricks, would be nice... when the server go online again, I'm go quickly upgrade my MP and HP, since I'm using bunny a lot, she is quite a glass cannon in bosses.

Love to see you doing other stuff brother! Big fan

I JUST BROUGHT A STAINLESS STEEL PAN TOO!!!!!! Im loving. Just gotta get the pan hot first before oiling and it wont stick. and get some barkeepers friend to clean with. very nice stuff. Metal spatula on the pan is really no biggy as long as you not chunking at it lol

Nice! Glad to see you covering this game. Straight to the point, no bs. Like your style. Looking forward to more videos on this game. Hope it does well for you.

The guns, menu, npc screens and leveling is definitely inspired in Destiny

Best TFD vid out right now. To the point and very helpful. Keep up the great content.

I like the one is vespers more this is a great spot as well. As for the external components higher level isn't always better if the lower level item is rare(purple) or better with beneficial stats underneath the main stat. Always go back out to main inventory screen and check your stats( Hp, Def, Skill power) in the lower right to really see is something is better.

The thing with the shield upgrade was pretty neat

Nice, good content and cooking lessons. 😊 been using syalacone stuff with steel, i got a pan similar to yours but I inherited mine so not positive on the brand. It's been nice. Metal utensil are reserved for the grill maybe cast-iron depending on what Im making or have burned 😅

Do the reactors and all the components under it cross over for all characters or just weapons? Also, started following you with hd2, glad you do this too 🍻

I'm looking forward to trying this if they can sort the servers out. Gives me Warframe vibes but I could never get into Warframe no matter how much I tried.

Apparently i just found a gold mod that lets me get 4% to get 17% mp whenever i kill monsters at lvl 1, at level 6 9% chance on kill to get 22% mp. Its nuts i can keep skill spam on certain descendant its like a arcane energy.

How do i get past the screen that says Connecting...

randomly going to another game while doing a game guide is wild

On PS5, not once my game crash and I'm enjoying it!

“Words, he’s not even trying” that killed me- *followed*

Dough. i love your videos and your humor man. you crack me up. am glad you're are gonna be covering TFD.

When hivering over a reactor it says optimal conditions and for one of them it says missed skill power with the 100% being red what does that mean and does it affect anything if so how do i fix it ?

I completely forgot I even played this game . Looked at the mailbox, looked familiar, and got a reward for the 2022 beta. Idk how I feel about this game yet, but I'll enjoy some videos on it I'm sure.

YESSS TFD vids!! Hope this game can keep it up

Ive been getting melted as i go further into the game wondering why I took so much damage... i completely forgot about upgrading modules.

Appreciate u for the tips on the metal pan

13:17 Looks like a Made In saucier pan. I have several myself and they are great for more delicate things especially dairy-based sauces. I've found I can even step away for a few seconds without the sauce instantly burning like it would in all my other pans. Feels closest to my double-boiler but hotter obviously. Great stuff with excellent heat distribution and transfer. But, no, you should never use a metal spatula on the clad stuff as the layers are quite thin and, once you wear through the first which is usually a relatively soft aluminum, it ruins the pan. Use plastic, wood, or silicone-coated. But metal spatulas are just fine on cast iron pans. A lot of weirdos like to baby cast iron but it doesn't need it. If you have it properly seasoned, a metal spatula won't do much damage anyway, and even if you do burn something onto the pan and need to scrape it off, re-seasoning is only as hard as wiping some oil on the pan and throwing it in the oven at 400F for a bit. I hope you have as much fun learning to cook for yourself as an adult as I did! Good luck.

From Dauntless to here, glad to see you’re doing good!!

Helpful vid for the newbies.

Wtf do i do with decendant core items that i have extra , there's no option to sell or dismantle and since i already have the decendant , i can't use them for research

how do you like jayber? Do you think hes good?

What do enhanced cells do

Looks like a bit of work...but we are still stuck in ancient gameplay...suggest vanquish/transformers and verticality....

servers down but new OhDough vid couldn't be happier :3

This game has been great so far about 20hrs in. It's got a nice AAA feel to the character control/movement & combat. Frame dips and stability is tolerable, it's kinda rare so far

Servers were down most of the day. Glad to see someone able to play.

a few addendums mod upgrade levels are limited by "mastery level" (account levels you gain xp from main missions and leveling up "proficiency" with weapons, so you tend to only be able to upgrade within your means most times. Either way as you said prioritise the melee-mod (more capacity) then: +HP (as HP can be replenished via ground-drops)~ shields (slow passive regen until it breaks then it needs a LONG to start rebuilding, bosses can 2-3 tap your shields but they keeps you at full HP until those big attacks start landing) auto-apply will be good-enough initially but like wireframe most "optimal builds" are pretty generic (tank, more power, better cooldowns and range/duration/efficiency per needs). after that i'd say ability damage plus cooldown/duration to get your movement/speed-skills close to or above 100% uptime. you have the kick-module levelled, first one i got was "shock-punch" they do the same thing (add mod capacity to your decendent), if you get the special power mod for a specific decendant leveling that up reduced that special mods cost (the ice-starter pokemon ended up with a 5-8 seconds ground-kill DoT from hers instead of just a single-hit ice-wave so they are often a bigger DPS/utility boost than most non-defensive mod options), downside is their drop rates SUCK. 99% of the time just farm up the mission descendants, push through the main quest and melt any gear you aren't actively using farming up something "usable" for any new characters you end up with is super easy as even the off-type mods will cover you until you target-farm the reactor they do like from a higher level quest, no point storing them as that just takes up your already limited bag space, same for weapons you can get a copy of anything blue/purple within minutes so just melt anything you aren't actively using (unless you somehow cap the "weapon proficiency" then just swap to another variant of that same weapon type until later. 1/2 of the weapons in-type are functionally identical to each other following one of 2 styles (slower strong hits or simply DAKKA). weapons you have VERY limited space so ocne past the auto-=-apply stage get some base damage in, add an element then boost the crit-stats and "weakpoint damage", most of the rest is pretty niche while those will cover you the games entire lifespan.

So is this Destiny 3? I'll need to wait and see if they release a $100 DLC.

I am trying to understand the attributes and stats on gear like on bunny I have a reactor that says non attribute skill power boost so what does that boost my weapons or something?

Freynas the freebie they give after you get Bunny, but god if the drop rates to get her pieces don't suck ass to get

if i dismantle or sell a weapon with mod on it, what append to the mod?

It's big to see other stuff because helldivers needs some major updates as a max-level player with everything unlocked it is a bit boring for now.

is there ammo economy in this game? like picking up ammo and stuff, or nah?

good cooking tips

Yooooo ngl it's been awhile since I watched u hope u been well

I like how this game is a cross between destiny and anthem. This is the path anthem should’ve went down.

Damn dude plays all the games I play lol from remnant 2 to helldivers 2 to this lol what other games does Dough play?

Can not even log in the game since yesterday

Helldivers been feeling too predictable your video convinced me to give this game a try.

This is interesting

Respectfully can your boss put me in a headlock-

first piece of advice is "if youre level 1 just get level 50 gear." lol

wow. third person Destiny 2 looks pretty good

i hope you'll return to dauntless if the "big update" will be worth it.

If an element is "vey strong" does that mean it is good to use against that boss or the boss is very strong against it the game does not clarify in the slightest

Can I play as one descendant forever? Kinda wanna only play one character and max their potential

could you make a guide on how to get good gear early on

Oh Noes!!!! Connection Lost!!! Yeah....... yesterday I could not play at all. Tried to play in the morning.... later in the day..... in the evening...... ..... and game was in Maintenance everytime I tried to play. So yesterday was not good. :( Hopefully it will be better soon??? We shall see. ;)

heard a lot of folks are put off by the monetization. Is it a pay to win game?

I can not even get te game to start

What an absolute fun game. Just got a to level 40 on my Lepic and i have so much more to do. High praise from me, ESPECIALLY for a free game. Already put $40 into it Lol

Glad to see you covering this game, you were one of the only good channels covering Helldivers 2 as someone who knows how to actually play the damn game. But with all the BS goin on with Helldivers 2, Sony screwing over 177 countries from playing on PC, Balance Team Nerfing any Fun out, Discord Mods Banning folks over not liking their Degen Furry Art or asking to keep identity Politics out of the game. It's just too damn much and I don't care anymore, I'll wait till they get their shit together. Until then I'll gladly watch your videos on any other game coming out. I mainly got interested in this game cause the Women actually look attractive instead of the Crimson Chin, and the gameplay reminds me of Warframe, which I haven't played in years. So glad to see you playing other games, you do good work.

Descendant is about unlocking new characters just to grind the same sh*t to get to lvl 40. How is this fun??

Really like this game. Freyna is my main ☠️ 💚💉

Jumping out of the helldivers bubble because its a dying sinking ship. Good idea.

When did u start dropping some many videos. good gosh!

Feels like a good game, definitely too to advance for my taste. Thank God for friends 😂😂😂😂😂

i can see u like playing as a boy band member

the beauty of a frying pan tax write off, chef's kiss.

bro jumped ships for hd2 rip

oooooooooooooo a drippy G36c im in

This game has the world on its knees today. This is a revolution. Who needs Destiny?

HOW THE HELL DO I START A MISSON?!!?!!

Would you consider playing elden ring ?

Is this a pay to win game or can you get far without having to spend real money

This game is alright although not as rich as warframe tbh. Hopefully TFD wont screw this up with microtransaction gallore.

Why did bros accent go from average white guy to Texan to British

credit card OP

u just forgot what editing was?

Dude would be a simp

Seems like WarFrame

Enjoy the honeymoon period guys. This game will insist on draining your wallets in a month or so.

Honestly game looks p fun but the borderline insane privacy agreements turned me off

wow gamestop, giving paying customer a warranty exchange that only gives the customer a "refurbished" controller as a replacement for the defective new they bought, is not ok.

Bruh is helldivers cooked 🙉

This feels a lot like warframe lol

I was thinking about playing this but i've already lost a lot of my life playing games like destiny 2 and warframe. I don't think I could play first descendant as it would probably get me to spend another 2k hours on it just as the other games mentioned did, and kill my social life

'bunny can kill everything without even trying' glad to know they already have Saryn/Volt levels of damage dealing, so that'll at least feel a little familiar. I'll try it out when it finishes downloading, but something tells me I distinctly will respond to this with a resounding 'meh' about 3hrs in or less.

Beginners guide, what? How can that be if the game just came out ?

Kinda sound like turkey tom

Are you military bro?

Is bunny still “busted”

Welp! Time to explore. Helldivers trump card now is to revert all of their mistakes and release the new faction at the same time. That's quite literally the only way they can recover this now..

I love how everyone and their mother reccommends leveling Bunny first. Yeah okay youre a crackhead levels of fast with very high offensive, but the structure of the objectives is just built for Ajax. If there is one Descendant that is infinitely valuable in any content, ever, its Ajax. His Hypercube with few HP/Shield slots and cooldown reductions can permanently lock down an objective you have to defend, or capture, or whatever. In Intercept bosses its the same thing. With maxxed out HP/Shield module, you will overlap Hypercubes left and right, so in theory, Ajax doesnt have to ever move, because whatever hes protecting, is impenetrable.

I didn't even make it through the tutorial and uninstalled

You traitor!

This is not really a beginner's guide

How is this a beginners guide?
