Decaying Winter Facts and Tricks the Wiki Wont Tell You 

At around 15:55 I say “arbiter class” when referring to blitzer Storm watch is not new, been out a long while. Here’s the discord server link: discord.gg/yXDnKzzm7d You can start the holdout game mode by going into a private server and typing in chat “/startholdout” there is no way to end it without quitting The fish on a tank is a reference to a youtuber “tankfish” Laz can stun sledge queen I just missed Helicopter crash can set you on fire As mind flayer you can press f to use the blue spiders, and hold it to use red ones.

"a really weird backpack" MY BROTHER IN WINTER THAT IS A FEILD RADIO.

One extra detail everyone seems to forget with Apostle: The new Apostle update allows you to command your daves with B to go to a specific location regardless of you and the marks you make, and hold B for them to follow you (or the condemns you marked). You can have them move around the map and even stay in/defend an area. Not only you can avoid your daves being stuck due to the map, you can now use unique tactics with daves that you couldn't before. I highly recommend trying it out. - The one and only Apostle main.

Fun fact: remember those spikes trap that gives you a huge cringe amount so you throw up? Well, you can crawl right on them and they will be harmless

Storm watch has always been there, and the hive "hit markers" is the Hive Aura.

Fun fact: The fish ontop of the tank is a reference to a popular youtuber called "Tankfish"

something i think you forgot to mention with melees was the wounding. Some melees are slightly worse than others for better/different types of wounding such as bleed or fracture. Typically fracture is more sought after. Also you should've included another factor such as cost for the craftable weapons. Firerier axe is slightly faster but way less damage than the reapers scythe for 50 scrap and I believe a bit of range.

there are also some more references perks have im 90% certain that the daggers that spawn from killed marked enemies as sovereign are a reference or are inspired by risk of rain 2's ceremonial daggers, an item that makes it to where 3 homing purple daggers spawn from enemies you've slain. Both sovereign and ceremonial daggers spawn homing, purple daggers from killed enemies + they spawn in groups of 3 in both game, there's no way that that's just a coincidence

12:12 the shrapnel device is actually incredibly useful for frontlining, it reduces enemy melee damage by 80% and gun accuracy by 200%

23:10 you *PRESS* F to deploy a red spider. its *HOLD* F to deploy blue spiders. and both spiders do the same amount of damage. you hit him 4 times, but the 4th time you did, it was the last m1 of your m1 combo which does 2x more damage, basically the first 2 m1s of the m1 combo damage combined. so its 30 damage not 24. 24:57 fracture??? thats broken hand. you get bleeding or cripple(broken leg) from explosives, which you dont get with blitzer's explosive-effect immunity. 27:45 prophet's scan reduces max hp(-25) then shows their hp, which is why whenever you scan them they always seem full. 29:25 we call em dave or some other nick name because their actual name is shadow hunters and nobody wants to type that much when referring to them 30:39 you probably dont know different scavs have different healthpools as well as damage resistance(weak scavs like peacemaker or spec scavs, strong scavs like sledgers and ak scavs.) this also makes me wanna talk about how mindflayer works specifically since it wasnt mentioned at 33:26-34:18. the drones as you call them will mindkill/mindflay a scav at (it outshines sovereign when enemies start having more than 150 hp, mainly raiders or cultists) 31:31 (nice miss) for lazarus's death prevention, it activates at 20 hp and heals you the damage you took. however taking more damage than your current hp; lets say you take 15 dmg at 10 hp, you die. death prevention doesnt keep you alive from that. another thing about immolator is the more overheat you have, the more melee damage you do. and the fire buff also lets other players be immune to fire bombs, not just immolator. 42:06 fun fact sledgehammer has a 1% chance to do a boosted bonk sound with his heavy also why didnt you include every weapon in statistics and maths? you seem to confuse perk abilities with guns or weapons alot, they're their own thing. traits dont affect them, including artillerist and riskrunner's perks which are..guns. you also apparently do not know about debuffs in general, not just from weapons(wounding level), but from some auxiliary devices(shrapnel device) and perk abilities(tickspider, crosslink). theres also some minor errors but they're just so small that i dont feel like correcting it btw the trello is more accurate than the wiki. wiki can be edited by anyone so some bozos tend to spread misinformation whereas on the trello only certain people can edit. you could also talk to some discord members for information, some nerds memorized almost everything and are walking trellos. despite this, the trello still can be wrong or inaccurate (and outdated) sometimes thus converse with some of the nerds about certain things you may find unclear

> there is no stealth mechanic you can crouch behind enemies to go unnoticed, in the clip you were booted out of crouch due to funky staircase shenanigans. By no means is it worth doing though. The shrapnel auxiliary item is actually quite useful, dealing chip damage and tier 4 fracture to scavs within the radius. Sovereign has a niche little higher jump due to roblox physics, not very useful but you can mantle to some areas more easily. Reaper Scythe is actually great for sq showdowning as stamina isn't a problem when you're in constant cqc (parries regenerate stamina); it also recovers fast enough to shove a double shellshot whenever those situations occur. tldr for the section below: melee weapon not only for damage, can also debuff and have range advantage. It's a bit odd for you to not include the wounding for each weapon, since an axe/bludgeon type weapon's fracture for example can reduce scav's melee damage and gun accuracy by 20/50% each tier, whereas blade/spear weapons deal bleed damage over time, also scaling based on tier. This can pretty heavily weigh into the usefulness of a weapon outside of purely damage per combo/hit. The only exception to this where a weapon does neither wounding type and is exclusively DPS is the Reaper's Scythe. A weapon's effective range can also make it more preferable than others, an example being the Billhook's 200% range or the Executioner's 175% range, both allowing you to kite outside of a melee scav's effective range (exceptions being sledgers and pitchforks). Weapons that are 150% range, a presumably familiar one being the Decimator, only have the base 150% range, forcing you to parry then swing or risk being hit while running at a scav while winding up a heavy swing.

12:06 I will NOT stand shrapnel device slander my good sir! It inflicts maximum fracture and cripple. Max fracture reduces enemy melee damage by a whopping 80% and reduces the accuracy of gun scavs by 200%, which is already powerful, but cripple then significantly slows their movement speed. In addition the shrapnel itself does some chip damage

Congrats on 200 subs.

One thing about the storm speed is that it varies with the server. Idk if it is an intended feature or affected by lag, but in some servers it can take minuets for the storm to arrive or it comes at a pace that is un-out runnable

5:40 storm watch has been there for awhile, at least like 2 years since that's when I started

at 4:52 having painkillers active and a broken leg will slow you down this is noticable on a perk like lazarus which gives you the painkiller effect but doesn't heal broken leg

2:37 The upstair does have some suff in the room with window,there's 3 or 1 chair,2 table and 2 water dispenser there,these are most likely because arch forgot to delete it when she port SOTF map to DW.

2:27 if you played Survival of the Fittest, the upstairs usually originally contained a blue crate (or a normal orange crate), a med cabinet, a few lockers, and an arsenal locker. Decaying Winter uses SOF's map as Archeximus was too lazy or something. 8:42 that's a spawn pod from Survival of the Fittest. whenever you spawn into a Survival match, your character spawns in one of those.

Oh one more thing, the scrapnel devices are goated for Apostle, so def give them a try with him.

15:05 not sure if this was mentioned in previous videos but shoving (even without ballistic dagger or soverign’s knife) will make it explode too

this reminds me of those old fact videos of minecraft by that cubscout guy i think? nice video edit: it was cubfan

5:02 It doesnt work on you but the enemy still get flinged away by that

On the first barrel you exploded there's a chance a dynamite trap will spawn, and if you trigger it its basically an instakill

By the way, you can make a 2 hit fists build with violent tendancies, honorable and agressive behaviour, it deals around 50 dmg (more or less) and can two hit the 80 hp enemies

decaying facts

as someone who has played a ton of berserker, i assure you shrapnel device is top tier. it fractures scavs so they deal next to no melee damage

8:51 those things are from SOF(surviral of the fittest. Red's older game.) They let the contestants into the game.

at least it's great stuff that not many new(novices) player may know also on 5:28 is a tank fish reference or his old youtube name fish tank from a crosslink main

Interesting detail, drifter smoke bomb cosmetic looks similar to the smoke bomb from sotf

...A fish on top of a Tank... Did... Did they genuinely add a reference to Tankfish?

5:28 tank fish reference

And here I was thinking this was a video about don't starve on not very well known tips for winter

You forgot that Koldera stim actualy increases slightly your stats, includes dmg. If you dont have morale.

The silly windmill use to brake your legs in original dw

About Statistics and Math on Crafted, you forgot about Executioner Blade... | also from what i heard of.. Berserker With Executioner blade and in Berserker Abilities[F] able to stack with each other so basically + 9 HP

5:08 helicopter can cause fire too

5:26 thats a tribue to the ytber called "Tankfish" he helped dw gain almost 3k players afer his vid

a very skilled tactic and mechanic used by drifters is the mechanic in the game, wherein if you are being followed by an enemy and you cloak(outside of the stun range of the smoke bomb) they will continue to walk down the path where you were at as if you were still there, this is useful for throwing bombs/activating c4 while your cloak is still active

There's also an easter egg of a jinx cat picture being placed on screen of one of the pods near Tower

The Auxillar Ladder is a good equipment.

23:37 im guessing maybe bleed caused the less health for the scav, or maybe try with prophet and compare them idk

Storm watch has been in the game for years

I didn't know she would give me an extra minute after i give her the guitar

the storm watch has been there for a long time

Hey, it seems when you where going over the crafted weapons, You forgot about billhook. And I was wondering if the Billhook was good for light/heavy attacking. Thanks.

the storm watch was from an old update.

5:26 probaly a reference to tank fish lol

If i remember correctly, the downside of the blue tickspiders is their lower blast radius. Both of them do the same damage im pretty sure. Also, you got the mode activations wrong, you get the blue spider by holding F, you get the red one by tapping it.

20:35 Aout that nullified fall dmg, that bug is in game for begining and i dont think devs will even try to fix it :P

if im correct (correct me if im wrong) 5:00 i think it used to poison you? anyway i played before last strandeds soooo

Ngl as someone who plays laz i got kinda annoyed when you said the stun wont work on Sledge queen cause it does you just accidently hit slightly in front of them. (also im pretty sure death protection works anywhere from 35-2 hp)

Shrapnel is better then the dagger for vagabond due to it breaking bones and having aoe + range.

you gotta go over the immolator damage buff with overheat

When you were calculating the DMG from m1 and m2 of melee weapons, I have a question: does the percentage (25,75 etc) is the speed you normally swing * percentage? So like if its 100% you swing at the max speed and how it must be, and if its lower you swing slower than should?

i do not know what this game is but the video is cool

I learnt turrets run out of ammo when Sledge Queen ran into my spawn and tanked both turrets

The fact I already knew everything on here (that doesn't include math because it never mattered), must mean something is wrong with me.

why dont the Agents throw a grappling hook and use it to climb the 2nd floor? Are they stupid?

just a little tip for people who are playing holdout mode the ERU scouts during the freedom fighter boss wave have an absolver hit so just stay away

dude, the class at 15:55 is not arbiter.

i LOVE hivemind

you forgot that hunger and thirst can give you a buff to your melee damage full hunger gives like 15% if i remember and thirst adds another 5% this is probably why your tests were off slightly by a few numbers cause you had didn’t have the same hunger in each test

Wait, how you get into the discord?

So technically speaking, if you went Executioner with the Executioner (wild right?), you would need 88 bounties to one shot Sledge Queen (given no extra melee buffs present). So it would look something like this. 125 DMG (According to wiki) 1 + 0.098 BOUNTY (Gonna use n) = 1200 HP (SQ) 125 + (1+ 0.098n) = 1200| solve for n, n= (1200/125 - 1) / 0.098. n=87.755102, n=88, 88 Bounties. if you're quenched and nourished with koldera and combat stim effect on plus methodical (assuming percentages are added and according to wiki), just replace 125 with 231.25 (125 x 1.85, 1.85 is the effects stacked) so you'll need 43-44 bounties in order to kill SQ with one shot while under those effects with the Executioner. Don't forget to bring fracture and bleed treatment just in case and enjoy the +5 health from the SQ kill (If your lucky enough to not get fucking lasered by the mcx raiders).

"Storm watch and i think its partially new" Mf has never looked at the pda? That watch was there before DW was even banned and relocated

Dont you dare say the shrapnel device isnt useful. Tier 4 fracture reduces huge amount of melee damage and gun accuracy.

The fish on the tank is a reference to a youtuber named Tank fish, who made a youtube video on the game which got millions of views and boosted the games player count

the storm watch is not new lol it was there since dw pre beta

"Wiki admins hate him for this simple trick!1!1!1"

What song are you using somewhere around 17:00?

a FISH on top of a TANK

Hey the executioner the image logo it in a r6 operator zore you did see that tbh

At 8:00 what is he wearing thar let's him see the health

I'm not sure how much sicklers can be stunned but I don't think lazarus can stun sicklers. Correct me if I'm wrong tho

The storm watch isn’t new

10 minutes late

How you play holdout mode?

Wanna play decaying winter?

THERE IS A MF TRELLO??????

8:53 stealth does exists and you can sneak behind any enemy as long as you are behind one and they're not already targetting you (target stops once they get stunned), when they do spot you it's because they can turn around when randomly wandering. This only applies to looting phase enemies, wave phase enemies are guided to your position and will spot your regardless. walking is as loud as sprinting, standing still and crouching are completely silent. 27:45 prophet scan reduces enemy maximum health by 25, it does not preserve damage they've already sustained. 31:30 lazarus ability does stun sledge queen, but you missed. death prevention can potentially heal you to maximum health.

You do a lot of misinformation :/ (35:31) looks like we all have a different vision of this game.

The turret can run out of ammo if a sickler comes into the safe zo e

Please do not read my unfinished crosslink guide, oh god pls do not read it, i will finish it later. maybe. YOU WILL NEVER KNOW

Pov you banned from dw discord11:14

lmfao

Я подобной бредятины давно слышал

oh its the guy who sucks at the game

is this a dig on the wiki lmfao
