Yea both my friends who main psyker use void, but I like the performance I saw from some lightning staff users
Yeah when the enemies are just lining up for you and you launch that missile at head level is just
That's what I saw, the CC seemed nuts
is the left an upgrade? i'm going to buy it anyway for the higher rating just to keep but wondering if i should use it, damage bar seems low
Is zealots lvl 10 talent bloodletting not working?
hitting bleeding enemies onyl gives stacks VERY randomly and applying bleed on crit is also working onyl soemtimes
You can shoot the grenade. I suggest the blue recon lasgun to do this and just pray. Took me a few missions of hunting down good hordes to attempt it on.
It can be yes, now that I understand stats a bit better I am sure it's possible to heighten the amount of stun/stagger it does
I would keep u sing your existing
You need a weapon with high finesse if you're goign to use that feat, otherwise it's barely ever goign to proc, and the buff is multiplicateive, multiplying barely anything is still barely anything
Has anyone had or heard of someone from Fatshark fixing glitches / bugs for specific players? I've got a contract for a map that got removed, and can't re-roll it due to another bug of not being able to re-roll past the cost of 7,500. I'll be pretty disappointed if I miss out on my 1,000 weekly bonus for completing all contracts 😦
Not waht I mean, I stack 25% crit on eviscerator in testing
I crit with evis
Thing starts to bleed
next hit MAYBE applies the buff
next hits (he is still bleeding btw) no
Oh that way, I misunderstood, apologies
how do i report a bug when the forum Post topic button is greyed out?
Are you logged in?
yes, i see my profile on top right corner
Anyone else encountering this, "Unable to perform operation" bug when trying to consecrate?
I have a 210 knife that has bleed on hitting NOT weakspots
and it is the only thing that can stack that fucking talent
BUT ONLY on bigger things
zealot talents are horrendously bad lol ..
Is it just me, or does the Ogryn feel a bit underwhelming?
not just you, zealot is the same
but theres a bug where if you stack 50% change of recieving curio as mission reward, you will stop getting mission reward drops
even if you remove the stacks to 0%, you still no longer get mission rewards
im 21 runs in without a drop
Same, was wondering if the hype was true, and by god I have a new favorite weapon
meanwhile 70% damage resistance ogryn carrying games
its not about that, plus that resistance kicks in only when someone is down
Not that it is bad, but considering that things has fucking STR 5 on tabletop
ye they are underwhelming
I'm talking about the bleed resistance build, which applies as long as you're fighting, which is the only time you need it
But still not AS BAD as zealots are, who got fucked royally after the chip dmg and beta nerfs and dodge nerf
Dodge nerf? they got buffed
dodge was nerfed in general, then zealots got a little buff
but the real problem is fuckign chip damage
Which was good because before you could endlessly kite way to easy
with 2 weapons in the game
As a zealot main I concur. The chip damage is pure agony. The higher you go the worse it gets.
chip damage is needed otherwise you can never die, you are granted tools to deal with it, immunity + ult allows you to use the window to get out of the problem if required or regain your health if you so spec it, I've onyl brought my zealot into heresy though, not damnation.
All of the others have their place but the void staff just melts so many things.
Plus this whole endless kitting, there arent MANY spots where you have the room to kite for any long period
plus you cant dodge through enemies, so one bad flank and all that kitting is gone
So are some missions not available rn?
There are better alternatives to chip damage. Toughness damage resist is already a feature that can be tweaked, same with toughness recharge.
Correct, they'll release more over time + there was one only available the first day but removed because it was buggy.
That's kinda where situational awareness comes in, you can always just go to the last room if it's easier to fight in, also while blocking and back dodging you can quickly look around with a mouse flick and check if you're being flanked, if not you're free to push and kill
Map knowledge also pays off with that
I agree, but I still have trouble with the trauma secondary; I can aim it fine, but it takes longer since there’s no clear arc like with grenades
Ult gets stoped by being grazed by a bullet in 4+ so no
Chip damage fundamentaly fucks over zealots because of their "supposed" low hp playstyle
THIS ISNT vermintide with 98% enemies melee
Here ranged enemies 2 meters away from you still SHOOT YOU instead of going into melee AS THEY SHOULD
Playing zealot is pure ass
I love getting wombo combo'd by a Mutant, chip away all my health.
doesn't ranged damage not do chip?
Doesnt matter since it fuckign staggers you and you have fuckall to deal with it
can consecration ever increase stats?
I havent seen the boost, myself.
a gun?
I'm trying to get a hang of the Ogryn, I'm only level 18 with a Shield and grenade launcher
ye sure, you mean that one which should supress enemies but it doesnt so you loose 50% healthpool just by playing the game
cuz the melee range i bugged
Not sure what I'm doing wrong, but it feels like I can't ever get toughness up proper
Yup, you can easily get locked in place by enemies. I understand not being able to push forward, that's the point, but being unable to move at all isn't fun.
Any time, in any game, where you feel like you might as well just set the controls down and go have a snack while the enemy holds you there, is a sign of poor design/balance.
I agree, the range is pretty poor too. I feel like the void staff outshines the disruption and horde clearing of the trauma
Don't ult straight into them then, you're not an ogryn, dodge to get into them, in zig zag because when you dodge IF they shoot they'll shoot the position where you started your dodge, you literally won't get hit if you zig zag, ult is for quick displacement and relocation, not closing the distance, even ogryn can't blindly rush in unless he's sure he'll reach them before they start shooting.
And again, chip damage is needed, otherwise you might as well remove, health and wounds from teh game.
I was testing void staff out in the psykanium place, are my eyes decieving me or does it do a little AOE everytime it passes through an enemy
THis
It does, yeah. Shooting into a long line of enemies can just delete them.
Jesus I fucking HATE when people assume that ohter people who have criticism are 5IQ brainlets who hold W all the time
I’d be fine with the trauma secondary if I wasn’t so exposed while charging and aiming
Idk if you played 4+ but 2 shots graze you ther and bam you are staggered
Have you tried a staff with the trait "can't be interrupted while performing secondary"?
what do you do? ofc you dodge adn zig zag
oh what is that more shots coming you way that stagger you?
guess what more free dmg
Only got a purgatus with that, but it’s certainly useful
Oh man that'd be nice on purgatus
Its certianly the strangest to aim staff, but sienna had the same thing in vermintide and once people got used to it people thought it was fine
Damage can interrupt the player's attacks and halts attempts to dodge, so if you get, say, a rager, you're locked down and basically dead already unless a friend can shoot them away from you or manages to get a good heavy swing/stagger in.
Alright, continue complaining then 🤷♂️
Won't give advise, as I said just a few replies above, I only played heresy highest with my zealot and it's literally no issue, damnation maybe I can imagine, but you sound to me like one of those people who undervalues dodge and proper positioning, instad just want health immuntiy and say that ranged is bad.
Trauma just needs some love or maybe I need a better rolled one
I think it just forced them to run into cover
How are people getting "Cliffhangar" penance on the Psyker done?
I had a gun which had the incread supression perk, didnt do fuckall they just dontiunue shooting
If I played sienna more, I might be more comfortable, but I’m a victor basic bitch
Lol me too.
The forge area isn't bad, right near the end with that big smelter pit at the middle. There's also that espionage mission ending, the 3 bridges.
Anyone find the zealots death passive to be super lame due to chip damage existing
That is not advice that is patronizing, Iam not playing lvl 1 running headlong into a gunline and then bitch that I died
How do I fix the DCing issues cause I dc'd like 8 times on a Endless 3
Im thinking with the revenant skill itll be super good but im still low level on zealot
and his suppsoed "low hp" playstyle which doesnt exist since ANY melee dmg even on full toughness deals 10% of its value (not jsut backtabs)
The reason I'm assuming that is because you're complaining about chip damage, when pushing, dodging and blocking exist which nullify that
you don't have to play that low health lol
No doding and blocking exists to nullify dmg, chip dmg is cheap mechanic that THE TUTORIAL ITSELF doesnt acknowledge exists
it caps out at like 45 lost health or something like that
Yeah his low health stacks are actually fine, i just feel the death passive is wasted till you get revenant
death-ward passive is fine, it just saves you more than you think
= they made the game withotut chip dmg
they deisgned the classes without chip dmg
and now a week before launch they introduce a mechanic that fucks over zealots playstyle royally
Ive talked with/debated/traded ideas with @tough cove for a few days now. Never known him to be patronizing, I genuinely think hes just trying to help
Can anyone confirm if the Counterfire trait does count for the deadye challenge?
chip damage is damage
"No doding and blocking exists to nullify dmg,"
So that includes chip damage..
my man chip damage was in the closed beta
No it wasn't.
it was
I find its not really saving me, since after it ends even if i replenish my toughness a single mistake downs me
Yes and holding W makes you go forward, any other excelent ideas I never heard about?
@spiral thorn yeah but you survived a single mistake already, you shouldn't be making another one
I played it for 21 hours and can say with absolute certainty, it wasn't there. If it was, then the stun you get when taking said damage was definitely not there.
If you're such a know it all, then why are you having issues?
The stun is the main reason it's so miserable.
But dont you know, holding RMB solves all these problems!
from melee? just dodge and the slowdown will have worn off
How do you clear with the chain axe? Or do you just not and pray for teammates. Heavies don’t seem very good
but also yeah just block and push more if you're getting hit
spam light attacks, heavies are shit on anything
push attack also good
Imagine coming to help chat, complaining about things, getting legit tactics, then shitting on the people trying to help you
Ok cool so I’m not playing it wrong. Just been spamming lights and shove attacks
Vermintide had the exact same ability but due to not having the chip damage mechanic it didnt have the same issue. I feel like its a poor passive when compared to saltspyres zealot class
You can't dodge if you took a hit for a second, does nothing. Block is instantly broken by more than a few enemies. Push is wildly variant depending on weapon, usually ineffective against any but the lightest enemies.
Heavy with sweeping attacks like catachan and power sword are very good at clearing hordes.
don't compare it to saltz zealot, they're different games??
with different core punishing mechanisms and combat loops?
"legit tactic"
"Did you try to hold block and dodge in melee? "
Yeah I know for those weapons but the chain axe has a diagonal heavy. Guess I’ll just shove attack and spam lights with it
The best strategy I have for right now is just wide sweeps and dodging back and forth, praying a stray, single enemy doesn't come up from behind and hit me, causing my stunlock and death.
You literally gave an example of yourself trying to ult through firing enemies mate
no, they are slow for that and they also dont kill then either
So, how do I send messages to my Strike Team instead of the entire Mourningstar?
Sadly not a feature yet. :C
there's sfx for people attacking from out of view, keep an ear out for it @dreamy steeple
on diff 4-5 they do. Aim for the head zone.
NO :D LOL
I said that on 4+ you get grazed by a bullet and your toughness is bye bye which stops the charge
Read wht I write
They get drowned out by all the enemies in front, sounds the same.
literally listen harder
Different games but same exact theme. So salt feels like an actual zealot who can survive death itself and can be played on the edge while the 40k zealot cannot despite having the exact same theme. Its not a question of balance its a question of whether a different skill shouldve filled the slot
I hear it over the sounds of everything else, but it feels like it's built in now.
Chainaxe heavies dont on 3 not to mention 4+ :D
I had an axe which had bonus dmg on the longer you hold the heavy and it still did fuckall
Havent really heard great things about chain axe. If you need good horde clear, Id recommend one of the two weapons like catachan/powersword
Your attitude isn't helping, and yes, that's exactly what I described.... stopping the charge, by getting "grazed" aka not all shooting enemies are tied up and you're out in the open.
turns the knob on side of the head There we go
it's genuinely just practice man
it's not easy don't get me wrong
shit's hard to hear if you're getting distracted by the 9000 other things the game has
as in vermintide 2 that sound is reliable 70% of the time
mayeb even less
Not talking about chainaxes. Talking about catachans and powerswords
ooh mea culpa
It's annoying as piss. One single poxwalker can condemn you to death if it slips past the team and you're facing a hoard or ragers.
Get hit that once, that half second stun is all it takes for the lock to start.
it does since it fucks your melee combo, does chip dmg AND corruption :)
oh yes WHY didnt I think of that
oh w8
Push doesn't stop them but for a split second, and again, won't work if you just took a hit.
Does stun last longer on higher difficulties?
it will, because you can dodge
which is a speedy direction zoom
actually, which weapons are you using?
I'm not sure. I think there's just more enemies so it's more likely you take another hit.
some of the heavier ones have awful dodges
@dreamy steeple dont bother its pointless people will simp for bad mechanics :D
and you need to be backed up by someone who can create space to use them effectively in large hordes
Ignore the fact the forum MOST active posts are about chip dmg being terribad
it's part of those type of weapons' damage
in v2 they have a perfect melee formula, darktide is harder by design since there are WAY MORE RANGED enemies
I've tried em all at this point. The dodge-types are nice for staying alive but won't whittle hordes fast enough to move the battle forward. The hammer is best for me personally because of the cleave and the optional thunder-slam for armored or elite targets.
v2 melee formula is comically forgiving
What diffculity i do warp battery on ?
Is the accatran recon lasgun a bit buggy? Sometimes it bugs my quick swap. So if i try to quick swap weapons it double taps back to the weapon I had in hand before lol
this game DOES NOT need a dmg on top f dmg mechanic lol
Nothing felt better then sending a rager to mars with one swing
do the ordo docket curio bonuses stack
haven't got the hammer yet; it looks good but sad to hear it's got a slow dodge. what's your team comp look like normally?
I like staggering those buggers with the slab shield
random matchmaking, aye fair
I don't think it's the accatran itself, on psyker I've had that issue with swapping between sword, staff, and brain burst.
I find a good CC-centric orgyn is the best bro a zealot can have.
when you get a good eviscerator try it, imo its just better than hammer in every way including big dick single target dmg
revolver/autopistol/laspistol
but you cant dodge melee with ranged so you get hit anyway
Wait do ranged weapons have variant dodges? I assumed they were mostly similar, ranged weapons n all
they have variant dodges yeah
I only encountered that during switching from staff to brain burst. Need to spam my brain burst button to switch to it from staff. But with lasgun its completely bugging my weapon quick swap.
and that got removed apparently @lilac phoenix
I'll need to keep that in mind then.
when? because I know for a fact with rifles you cant dodge
Huh, I hadn't noticed a very big difference
I mean you can press the button and move
it's a shit dodge but it does exist
My braced rifle has a smallish dodge, but can work
You can dodge with ranged
but it does not dodge a melee hit
it does
i've literally used it in melee to dodge back and braced autorifle brrt a horde
Maybe file a bug report? I should do the same, it's like the quick swap hotkey doesn't take priority over the staff and sounds like it's a totally separate problem with the accatran.
it's very timing specific because it's a small dodge though
You have to hope it gets far enough is the main thing. Ranged dodge for me is usually to dodge a sniper bullet, a volley, or to just get clear and pull melee
so what is ogryn like in the higher levels? i'm 12 rn
Glorious
Critical.
yes, sah.
ogryn w/ the heavy stubber is great ngl
And wholesome.
i run club + stubber
I haven't ever seen a melee attack incoming that didn't start with less clearance than my total dodge range on a medium gun unless it wasn't targeted at me
some of his weapons are really good
For the Emprah, Sah.
Ogryn might be the most fun class in the game.
"More scars to show the Emprah!"
but on 4+ you are proly just shield+mace
nah you can do 4 at least without it; i do
ong i cant imagine playing the cod class when i can just hold m1 and release every now and again and be basically invincible
I've had a few stand in front of me with shield while I lob void bolts through them.
can do yes
is it fun to be perma shot at cuz of the hitbox and absurd amount of ranged enemies? no
psyker powers going through people is mad ngl
that's what the stubber's for, silly
suppress those hostiles
right now i got the shield and the massive twin cannons
loving em
that is the usual combo
I really want a big bullgryn club, 2 handed, big cleave with stagger. Knock hordes around.
Better than popping vet ability and seeing the ogryn dive in front of you to soak them up ^ ^
The krumpin stick
"Those are my bolts, sah!"
hey i got heavy attacks to throw out i aint got time to clear the sightline
ok guys so im nearly lvl 30. For what weapon score should i look for atleast for legendarys in the weekly shop
checked forums and someone reported a bug which lets inputs go off multiple times and its acknowledge by devs. Guess thats my issue with the lasgun. Staff to brain burst seems to be awhole other problem ye
I never mind honestly, every time I'm lucky enough to have an ogryn on my team he's my best friend and I stay right by him.
so how should i be playing him in higher difficulties? rn i just ad clear with heavy attacks
Oh that's good to know, especially that it's acknowledged.
My solution with staff to brain burst is to just swear at my PC and blame team mates.
wow this boss is hard vs vetran
You're still lower level with vet, right?
level 20
Still rocking the lorenz kickback atm, love the ability to sit an elite on their rear before they do something. That said am thinking of changing
You try the power sword against him? Lock him in melee
grenade gauntlet's pretty good at that too tbh
yeah i tried out the club initially but i much prefer the satisfaction of cutting heretics in twain
Quick question is chainsword bugged for you too
Its nigh impossible to hit headshtots with it, it always stops on the arms or shoulders, and you have to be hugging enemies + aim a head above them for it to hit it sometimes
no other weapon has this issues that i tested
Zealot with Catachan Mk 4 is enough to kill elites/specials?
I mean I want a 2-handed version. Twice the bonk
gauntlet can also snipe far cause it's accurate, if you can aim, insta gib bursters, also explosive damage for beast of nurgle
ogryn needs a two handed melee option
he could use a claymore like a toothpick so it'd be MASSIVE
Yeah, I can imagine a big club, and some ogryn steel knuckles for a speedier weapon
we're still missing some weapons from this preorder beta so we might get something like that on the "week3" release, or full game release
Punch the heretics
That's kinda the problem with designing a 2h weapon for him...
unironically i want brass knuckles for the ogryn
all ogryns should play shield to protect the lil'uns
for a bit i just used the grenade gauntlets and spammed m1
the uppercut that one of the melee weapons gets as a special is funny af
used m2 when necessary
bro the club is literally a slap
give him one of those space marine chainswords
far too small
on the topic of ogryn
i've been liking the change they made to the lvl 10 talent that makes the box open up when you hit peeps
and now there's two boxes, there's a fair bit of explosion
yeah i thought that'd be pog but the bleed on heavy is so nice
originally it was a bit meh because it was carapace only
from what i can tell it's now just like, anything that isn't unarmored
flak, carapace, unyielding
them big ass shield bearers aint gonna know what hit em
mach 3 grenade box straight to the skull
I got a chainsword that has a perk to increase crits on multiple hits, so does shredding work with that?
I always read that as cleaving multiple enemies.
once you hit 30, is there any reason at all to look for/pickup grimoires or scriptures?
New zealot, any tips?
Weeklies, that's it
Weeklies
thats.. sad
hit the enemy really hard with your melee weapon when they are close
if they aren't close enough
shoot them until they are
Anyone have a group that can help me out with doing the heresy penances for veteran??
What else
don't die
Anything else
if about to die
use grenade
Don't forget we don't know the entirety of the game yet...might be that it becomes a crafting resource for the locked pieces.
How to change text channels
Does zealot crit after ult get wasted if the attack doesn't hit an enemy
or when you want to revive an ally
Im in Morningstar and I want to go to stroke team
ok no questionmarks good to know
Or answers
love when people throw their zealot nades at random groups of enemies that are literally just standing there
like wtf are you doing
Does no one know
New Map 👀
Apparently no one knows my question either
I wish zealots I see would use their grenades on ranged enemies, would make life so much easier.
They're too busy telling you how to play the game while blocking your fire
You can't, also no team voice chat in the hub
Grgrjg
Does endless horde mode give you any extra rewards?
New map?!
Xp, so only worth doing for fun / extra challenge after 30
And money, right?
Ah many thanks 🙂
I thought it gave money.
Oh it gives money too? I thought it only gave xp
because in the xp listing it says special condition
I could be 100% wrong, haha
I also don't know for sure atm, I'd have to do a mission with it
I think it gives slightly more money
I can go try one and see
Like only 10% or something
Yeah if it does give any extra it's a paltry amount for the headache you get. Especially in public games.
I just wondered if it gave extra anything. The other things like 'collect grimoires' show you the extra stuff you'd get so I wasn't sure
When will the missions cycle through? I have 2 more mission types to complete for Vantage Point 2
Monday should have another patch bringing more mission content, dunno if the ones you need will come back though
I think that's part of an ongoign thing, because the events aren't very balanced, for example fewer hordes, which makes the game even easier than a vanilla match, still gives bonus xp 🤷♂️
and just a bit of fog gives same xp as having bigger hordes and special spam
Only modifier active right now is endless horde
Did they take out fewer hordes? I haven't seen them for a bit
Right now yes, but it wasn't the past week
Yea they thought it was to east
Easy
Yeah I know. The fog was cool
Agreed, and fewer hordes was good for my friends with older PCs
because they'd have much better performance in those matches
Oh I'm sure, plus it helped with leveling quickly.
yeap, easy xp lol
xp bonus + done faster, I don't understand why they would REWARD xp for making the mission easier
The endless hordes have been a nightmare for me in pubs, we always get whittled down.
The Emperor sees all, it is not our duty to question His plans.
As a Zealot. the best feeling is when you see a ranged enemy section, stun nade the lot, then charge a heavy attack as you use your ability to storm in and thunder-hammer their biggest guy in one go, before turning and slapping the rest that were in cover around before they can recover and open up on you.
Yep, the problem is the snowballing, there's always 1 guy either not paying attention to his surroundings, not utilizing block/dodge or aggroign patrols across the maps so they're aware and shooting us, then when he goes down it's 3, then when one gets trapped/dogged thre's only 2 left standing.
That's exactly right, you've described every endless horde game I've played just about.
The bane of team-play is how there's always that one sharpshooter that doesn't understand he's a ranged class, charging ahead of the team with his chain sword and getting wrecked, needing to be saved constantly.
Me when i see a patrol a million miles away but wanna keep my stacks as psyker
Yep, tis the sad reality of pubs, even having just 1 friend on the team increases chances of winning so much
Fffffff (wow, bot didn't remove my reply)
Oh I'm sure. On one hand I've been getting better at carrying, on the other I don't like having to sweat so much each game ^ ^
Coop games will always feel bad to a degree when not playing with friends or randoms who use mikes and relay info well
Exactly, I can pick up some slack, but it gets tiring and sometimes it's just nice if people can at least carry their own weight
If fat shark didnt want me to do it, then brain burst wouldnt have infinite range XD
Like, sometimes if I only have 6hp, I let myself get downed during an opertune time, so I can have basically full health minus 1 wound for the rst of the map
Nothing wrong with a bit of bloodlust, private.
Be me, by zealot / ogryn trying to get to ranged patrol, closing distance before they shoot my face off, see 1 las shot wizz by, whole patrol awakens and starts blasting me because I'm closest to them and the veteran probably has camo
I wouldn't mind if he were good. ;p
I've actually seen some really good sharpshooters too, ones who know how to use their guns efficiently and don't need to be babysat.
Zealot trying to charge in to close the distance before dying just to see a head start glowing blue 2 packs down the line. "quess ill just die then"
Ah that is going to be a thing in high play, isn't it
I've been wondering that. As Ogryn, shouldn't Vet's let me deal with trash mobs to save on their ammo or does it not matter cos there's always gonna be enough ammo?
As long as they are good in melee, but switch back to ranged if needed im totally fine with that. Was the same in V2 with more ranged classes
Do coherency abilities effect me as well or just my team
On my Ogryn I like stacking wounds and health, it really helps because then you don't go down when the team needs you the most, just be like "guys, please let this trash guy down me and then revive me so I can have health again"
Curious about the ogryns level 5 double toughness gain passive
Yeah
In this game coherency makes sticking closer more important, yet some folks are just overconfident or paid 0 attention in the tutorial
While YOU are also in coherency yes. No effect if solo and seperated
I was told it doubles every type of gain, which seems really good
What's the difference between both?
Three fiddy
huh?
They are memeing.
Whats more important for flamer thrower, Burn or Damage?
I see.
what exactly is a blessing? Is it the little numerical bonuses on a weapon/curio?
It’s the one with the icon
Okay, so im not just giving up a toughness gain skill to buff my team, i also get the effect when i stay in coherency. If so then 100 percent boost to toughness replenishment seems bonkers
ah, so a perk is the numerical one?
thx
also, I can't seem to find an 8th mission type in order to complete one of my penances, is it not in the game yet or smth?
I was looking for that, I knew I saw that somewhere
"Disruption" was pulled after Day 1 of "Beta" for causing crashes/bugs, it'll reappear at some point
I keep saying skill but i mean talent
all these fancy new technologies and still no HDR support
I cri every time
Its called lynchpin
ah that's rough, thanks
Is the only way to single shot the bolter to ADS? like, it always no matter how fast you release the trigger, is going to fire at least two shots?
I put HDR on anyway
Pretty certain you can single shot in ADS
I've gotten it to single shot in hipfire before...but its pretty random.
It's kind of a support feat, versus a gain for yourself feat, because meleeing with your ranged weapon counts as heavy, so when you're spamming bleeds with your gauntlet and building resist, you're also giving yourself 20 toughness with the feat on heavy hit
If you like to plant shield and sit then it's proably better to take that, but if you're like me and like to get in and tie ranged enemies up so they aren't shooting the team, then you're better off giving yourself toughness as you're already indirectly decreasing damage to teh team
I don't mean to be rude here but I think you misread the question.
What are good modifiers on force staves?
Oh in Hipfire the count seems to be at least 2+, kinda like the Rippergun for Ogryns
Ive also seen the other type. People hold S while shooting at enemies that are right in front of their face pummeling them to death lol. No dodge or no melee weapon to block lmao
Yup, those people also likely paid 0 attention in the tutorial
Damage is always good, Charge Speed is usually good, after that it really depends on the staff. Which are you looking at in particular?
oh, oops, I actually meant traits
Blessings?
Ah! Uh, for traits I like damage against elites personally
Fair is fair...if you get hit without blocking, the you will likely be stunlocked out of dodging anyways. So its not like you know they were dodging.
Ogryn not kno wut dodge
and for blessings I like uninterrupted charges and uhhh
maybe, like Warp flurry and such
Suppression on close range kill
+% Cleave on mulit-hit or +% Cleave on repeated hits are pretty good.
just text under the stats = property (such as damage against elites)
Seperate section below that with icon = blessing so yea, blessing 😛
Got a axe with +%dmg on first hit of chain / -%dmg on concecutive hits. Time to only do charged attacks?
Game refers to the text under the stats as perks:
daam plasma gun is so bad , i love bolt gun
Same
but it's also under the option that says to change blessing
I think the plasma gun handles very weridly
its migraine to use plasma gun
Its bad, but it also might just be that there are some trait combos that make it amazing.
It's not so bad, use it with insta reload feat and you can unload 2 charged shots, then 2 more with ult active in the span of like 5 seconds
Plasma requires more building around than other guns, but also rewards more building around than other guns
I still don't like it personally, but I wouldn't say it's bad. Just niche.
Yea exactly, it's not amazing, but it's not bad, just needs to be played around
what curios should I look for at Veteran Sharpshooter? wounds toughness and hp?
weapons have both perks and blessings
blessings are the bottom section and cost 25-55 rating
perks are above blessings and cost 10-25
I take 1x wound, 2x toughness on veteran
I've been rocking 2 +2 stamina and 1x wound and it feels great.
toughness regen good too?
is there a way to see, if we fight scabs or dregs on the mission screen, that I did not see yet?
scabs and dregs are not exclusive
Depends on your regen feat I think
for example I use the regen on 8m away from enemy, which is a percentage of total toughness
so having more total toughness means you regen more per second, then I'd rather just have more toughness than faster regen
Kinda wish there was a property on curio that reduced toughness regen delay
should i upgrade bolt gun to purple? lvl 30 vet , thats the only weapon i love so far
so far I witnessed mostly separated factions, except the last mission where it was somewhat both factions, but I guess its random then?
Upgrading to purple just gives a property, not a blessing, so its not that useful.
It's a new mission on the Metalfab location, but it appears to be over half new locations.
What are some good blessings to look out for on a surge (lightning) staff?
Probably the heat ones, cause it's mostly for CC, so being able to spam it faster and more, gives more breathing room to team
Kinda depends on what you'd want to do with it I guess
Same could be argued for the bolt shooty one
I kinda hope we get a Plasma variant that shoots an exploding shot on Charged rather than Piercing.
Also, Specialist Ammunition for Bolters.
Realizing that Charged shots had piercing made plasma worth more to me than I originally thought it would be
At first I just thought it was as shittier bolter
apparently it can shoot through walls
according to my vet fren
I do really love the Plasma Gun. I just wish there was a variant that worked more like a HEAP RPG.
Well it's a plasma gun, not a plasma cannon, the plasma cannon does what you're asking
Perhaps Ogryn can carry plasma cannon 🙂
I haven't gotten it to do this yet, but it does explode when it hits most hard obstacles even on the non-charged shot.
plasma def can shoot through cover at least; a friend of mine realised it
imagine melee friendly fire
Mate XD
Whenever I think of plasma cannon FF I think of spacehulk deathwing
Also, a Plasma Caliver would be fun. Full Auto Plasma, but you have to watch the heat.
👀 M...maybe Hadron can give Skitarii weapons, either through quests or maybe you trade weapons to her for them or something.
I was hoping for a mechanicus 5th class, support class, ult calls in a shooting servo skull or something lol, having skitarii weapons indeed
Final DLC I bet, the last DLC you'll ever need.
remember kids
upgrade your curio ratings
Maybe their ability teleports a Tarantula Turret
"Class objective: sit in chair"
Or a minefield 😮
Eat 1000 psykers per day.
"Team objective: sacrifice the psyker to progress to the next stage"
Class objective: Watch the Imperium go to shit
Let Guilliman do teh hard work
That'd be every objective, I think.
"Trying new emp class, LF 3 psyker teammates"
I cannot wait for them to like ultra buff the psyker so I can have more fun than I already am
I feel like a good psyker player is already OP as fuck, I'm not one of them, but I've seen some whom are just nuts
I won't lie that psyker's BB needs like more speed charge or sumn but other than that psyk's pretty sick imo
I think the slow charge is BB's balance, otherwise nobody would use anything else (like in the open beta)
I just played difficulty 2 on my psyker and it was so, so boring. Getting used to dodging/meleeing right after that clutch brain burst hits has gotten me really aware of my surroundings to the point of paranoia
shout out to haha head glow blue psyker ability
I don't mean to shoot those guys
but it's like the psyker and the rest of the team aim at the same thing every time
shoot one target
switch to the next, psyker starts turning that target into a blueberry just before you start shooting
I guess? But honestly when the hell am I supposed to find time to do that especially when I could just use the force sword which does more damage in less time, like I'd even take a warp nerf just to get out more BBs
Yeah. It was a bit annoying when I was trying to kill Bombers in Melee and the Psyker kept blowing them up. But also, I appreciate the Psykers paying attention
But.. that's our job..
But it's a snipe ability that ignores armor with unlimited range and ammo
Psyker
Veteran
"Fuck that specialist in particular"
For a moment I thought you meant bursters and was gonna ask how you kill them in melee without taking damage
Psykers unemployment is a big thing on higher difficulties
I guess? Vet existing kinda makes that null and void imo like yes ammo and sometimes range comes into account but ehhhhhhhh
real talk
can't psyker yeet targets with no LOS as long as they're spotted?
At higher levels, Psykers become legitimately scary, though. They really start being able to handle so much.
this is true this is epic
Whenever I see a psyker BBing a bulwark or crusher, I'm happy, cause I don't need to spend my ammo or go into melee with it and then just cool down and chain lightning / flamethrower the entire horde infront of me
best thing about bb hands down
so what you're telling me
zealot charge into flank
spot all specials out of LOS of the psyker
murder trash in cover to reduce shooters
anyone know the 8 types of dreg enemy? ive got 7/8 and cant figure out the last one, think its a specialist cause im also "kill 3 of each dreg specialist 2/3"
progress carry confirmed to release!
Zealot charges in, kills everyone, then run ahead around the corner. The team turns around and sees slowpoke Psyker among corpses. Then everyone yell: "Psykers OP!"
mfw I'm just hanging out in the flank and a trapper literally falls from the sky and insta nets me
bro please
honestly I think the best setup is probably still all classes but I deffo think psyker's niche is a little too amorphous for right now
maybe just a dmg instead of a speed buff
on bb
where psyker with RNG manipulation capabilties
lower the accuracy of enemies aiming at allies
add bullet magnetism to ally weapons
as long as you don't nuke your own brain doing it
i enjoy psyker a lot- ive been using headpop a lot more since i hit 30
give mind control psyker shit. Make dat rager target anything close to him or some shit like that
how is there no galaxy brain emote about psyker in this server yet
Just waiting for a damn force sword to appear in the shop its been so long man christ 😔
anyone know if hte up close and personal penance for preacher is bugged? I only used my chainsword the entire mission but didnt get it. It was a malice level threat mission as well.
or is it hte entire team tha tneeds to use melee only?
Earn Blessing
You may also choose to surrender a weapon to Hadron in exchange for a Votive Offering dedicated to one of the weapon’s Blessings. This allows you to extract the Blessings you are interested in from weapons you no longer want, and collect them for use with the Combine or Re-Bless actions.
PSA: Start collecting weapons with blessing you'll want to use on future weapons, so you can sacrifice them when the time comes
its not bugged, i got it. if you dc at any point or join half way through a mission it doesnt count
even if you rejoin and the ai didnt shoot it still doesnt count, cost me a good 2 hours just to get
p sure they're adding more
Might be a Dreg Monstrosity planned
how long does efficency buff last ?
imagine it's just the dreg rager but scaled up 3x lol
we need a skinny monstrosity
There's no way to get Requisitorium tokens outside of weeklies, right?
is plague ogryn not a dreg monster?
Honestly a ranged-focused Monster would be neat, idk about design but it'd complement the Plague Ogryn (Melee Tank) and Beast of Nurgle (Area Denial, anti-melee)
idk, maybe could throw in a nurgle space marine but idk if it'd fit with the theme
Do effects that trigger on repeated hits count a chain weapon special as one hit, or each tick as a hit?
Considering that it's nurgle, this is unlikely, unless it's like a nurgeling horde ig?
i think it's each tick, which makes them really effective
Dear mother of god I really wish the requirement for challenge 2 was like, level 10
at least not straight up level 1 please
The assassination boss has ranged and dear god it hurts... Im good with just melee monsters thanks
wym, Uprising difficulty?
a sniperboss with full autro snipoer
Whatever the second difficulty is
I don't remember the names
it's just difficulty 2
funny that lvl 6 is the requirement for malice no? 😛
Endless horde malice, as a lvl 6 XD
Weak
the 2nd difficulty isn't particularly far from lvl 1
if people know what they're doing they'll be fine
yeah I think a 10 cap on like 3 would be reasonable maybe 8 or something cuz 3 is laughable
Endless horde malice, as a lvl 6 - sounds like a survival horror
yeah lol
11 cap for malice, have at least 1 curio
maybe but I'd only use that on a dev end to stop people from ruining matches by overestimating themselves
which tbf does happen
That's why they had the power rating system in vermintide
which was properly tuned
here the level requirements are undertuned
yeah I think they're just trying to be good to the players who are legit pretty good at tide games at this point and want more exp
That crafting post from fatshark had me thinking that the other options had been unlocked.... 😭😭
as a lvl 6 on malice, you don't have a curio, even as a level 8 you don't have good blue curios, let alone weapons, and only have your first feat
Not yet, but you can do prep work
is there a limit to how many items you can have?
malice at sub level 10 is completely doable lol
Yes. I enjoy harvesting mats while pox hounds snack on my team 😈
and weapons
imo it's not about how "doable" it is it's just about balancing lobbies
So... I'm grinding to level 30. I'm trying really hard because I want to try and grind for the chestpiece
Full crafting won't even be out on release. Man.
I do kinda feel like its hella RNG based though 😦
That's just a kick in the nuts.
better they fix the crashes than make your toys nicer if you can't use em
wow
but yeah what haalf said
id rather have crash fixes and preventions than a crafting system
kinda sad that's the way it is but still it seems like their priorities are straight enough
The guys working on the crafting system probably aren't teh same guys trying to find (and fix) the cause of the crashes
well I doubt they have so many people that they don't divide work
you realize you have to code a crafting system
and bugs are found in the code
There should be a new range dmonster that's just a machine gun in sandbags lol
why yes i do think they have people who fix stuff and also add stuff
but like
Byeah
No need to be a smartass, I'm just saying, someone designign the UI isn't going to help fix the random crashes
when yo do the abhor the mutant penance for zealot does it need to charge or it also counts when it grabs someone?
this may or may not be true, depends on the skillsets of the employees there and we'll probably never know that
If I were a smaller studio I'd hire multi talented people for each job so I could divide work easier
sort of like valve does
if only they did that for tf2...
It's pretty easy to assume they won't, people get hired to do a job, that they are hired for and paid for and skilled in, someone 3D modeling or making user interfaces doesn't suddenly know how to python, especially not at the level of a senior developer, who probably doesn't want inexperienced hands working on it in the first place.
well that's actually the reason tf2 doesn't get updates because valve has a weird motto of not making their employees work on any one thing for a long time because of like burnout and stuff
it's weird but there's a lot of documentation on that
letting your employees choose on what they work on is an upside and a downside
but yeah
unrelated
I'm basically just saying this about programmers and not like ux/ui people and stuff, but yes I agree that it's probably not many people being split if any
but even one extra is worth it imo
Fatshark isn't an inexperienced studio, as I'm sure you're aware, nor are they a self-centered company whom doesn't care about their product, I'm sure they're doing what they can.
Let's say this is caused by nvidia drivers, then they're also at the mercy of nvidia's investigation and prioritizing, it's not just "Put more hands on crashes now"
Like I said I agree with you all I'm saying is that focus is important and that they are being focused?
There a way to switch my hairstyle?
I think there's a bug for the Counterfire Perk. 1.) Highlighted Scab Shooters aren't counting as designated targets, and 2) Ranged Kills aren't refreshing the duration.
Barber is to the left of the shop, in a room in the wall
I just did 2 missions of scriptures with 3 + 3, ended up not registering any and its stuck at 15 😦
Is there a bug with this issue right now?
I'm sure they are, have faith ^^
Yeah, not sure why people specifically in this discord are so doomer about this game considering vt2 exists? Like it might take a bit that's kinda all. Not like they're abandoning the game anytime soon
It isn't even released yet and people act like it's abandoned
That's what I'm telling my friends as well, if you're so worried that there's not enough content to satisfy you, just wait a year or so, like VT2 wasn't perfect on launch either, but after a bit of polish and refinement it was solid, and after extra content was added it became a pure gem.
Because they didn't play VT2 and are going in with the same expectations held that other studios so.
you'd think people invested enough to join a server about a game would like, care lol
Spite goes very far unfortunately. They join out of spite.
swear to god #general-chat is the saltiest of saltmines i have seen in a long time
gameplay help is general for intellectuals 
jk don't fill it up with non advice
Well
did you try restarting the game yet
Hmm i crashed enough times as reset i guess, still didnt register the last 2 missions
weird, might wanna check forums for if anyone else isn't gaining progress on weeklies
Yes I never go there anymore, this channel is for good feels
This is the first time I've felt burning jealousy
I've had the same problem, currently stuck at 24/25 missions completed.
Yeah my complete 25 missions are stick at 23/25 as well
Glad it's not just me
I hate scripture runs so this really sucks to know my last few missions didnt count
Same, I don't want to have to reroll these when they're so close to completion.
If I only use 1 charge, will the other already start recharging or do I need to expend the 2nd charge as well before it starts recharging?
What's wrong with scriptures, at least it's not grimoires and usually the team doesn't need 3 medkits and an ammocrate anyway, unless it's heresy/damnation maybe, but I wouldn't be bothering with script runs there anyway honestly, if you're farming that just go to malice or uprising
Ah it just slows down the run a lot by having to comb through the map
Each charge is on its own separate cooldown.
Are mission types comepletely random? I cant get "Espionage" type mission
Does anyone have the second helmet from penance for pysker? I’m trying to see what the 3rd one looks like
Is there a button vent plasma gun or do I just have to let it cool down naturally
it vents when you reload
mouse 5
How important is power? I have a las gun I really like but its low power.
what braced autogun is the one everyone seems to like?
should i be buying this based jst on the fact that its a 423 blue with a decent blessing?
more power just means your weapon has more points to distribute amongst the stats, if it's a large difference in power it's pretty important, but it really depends on what stats you need and if the weapon distributed them how you want
my completed penances still bugged... any ideas to get them or...?
so anyone else having a problem with a black screen after the ready check
which one? 🤔
unstable peril if you like to shake hands with danger
cant get the 50 kills after flashbang to save my life
Jesus christ why does heavy sword feel like absolute garbage after getting used to axe
"lemme just slowly swing this big piece of shit while doing absolutely nothing, when i could be just smacking heads off in single swings with my trusty axe."
is this any good?
phbbtt... shovel supremacy will win in the end
would rather wait for an eviscerator tho
Ranged units changing to melee when ur in their face has to be more consistent jesus christ man, i turn my back away from 3-4 enemies because my teammate is literally attacking them with their sword and 3 of them within 2 feet of the teammate dont switch to melee, its so inconsistent.
Its best when there is 2-3 ranged dudes standing in a row. You charge in and cleave ALL of them. The middle one slowly swaps to melee while the other 2 just go " BRRRRRRRRR BITCH" with their rifles
I think it is yes, I'd buy it, especially with the high mobility and finesse, good perks to supplement the special as well
not really gameplay help, but are there any more weapons coming with launch?
Yes apparently, do I know which ones? No sorry.
When is disruption coming back??
tempted but i really wanna wait for an eviscerator
thanks for the advice : )
\
Helmet unlocked. Desire to purify infidels increased.
Yea evis also pretty gud, I find the faster reaction time and flexibility of the chainsword to be more to my liking, but evis is great too.
If I were in your shoes though I'd buy simply because I'd be afraid that the RNG gods would only give me trash the next 20 shop refreshes
I really don't like the zealot helmet XD
and who does? 
Good point
Perhaps it instill discomfort into the heretics?
How did u get into a disruption mission? Havent seen them spawn
They were in the beta for a bit on the first day before being removed
My only character that qualifies is my veteran 🙂
Oh i see, damn i missed it by a day :/
Hello Veteran Players, Is there an easy way to beat a mission without taking melee damage?
curio wounds or max health for ogryn ?
what's wounds anyway i dont get it
Do blue items cap out at around 400ish?
splits your hp bar into more chunks
Is the penance "warp battery" for psyker bugged right now? I've maintained max warp charges forever and never got it
and what's the use of this
The more bars you have that arent purple the more times you can be downed
More times to go down. Each down takes a wound.
what if i rarely go down tho
and the more hp you keep after a down
then simply go for something else
could someone take a bolter as a veteran and use the Perk sniper and tell me if the Damage actually went down instead of up?
Warp Absorption
Wrack and Ruin
Psychic Communium
Kinetic Shield
Kinetic Flayer
Ascendant Blaze
Opinions on my Psyker build?
What's the best anti ranged suppression squad weapon for the veteran?
Run the police station assassination mission with the camouflage perk. Stay in the back and be sure to stand still as much as possible so the perk activates, this includes during hoards and bossfights. Feel free to shoot, it doesn't break your camo and be sure to have your head on a swivel the whole time.
so can anyone give me a general guide on how to do movement in melee so I dont get hit? also does dodge give you melee invincibility frames?
If you mean yo dont get suppressed, shotgun and recon feel like suppresion doesnt matter
It does not which is why you typically want to keep dodging in the same direction
mainly I'm trying to cover my team but pushing into high ground ranged squads is rough
are shop cosmetics only reskins of what we already have?
and I'm not always in control of what my other teammates are doing
easiest way is to circle the enemy if possible, if your not able to then you have to be keeping an eye out so you dont dodge into attacks, and if you do just make sure to block
Boltgun is nice for covering teammates long reload tho
Thats my main goal and I just use shotgun, as long as your hitting head shots it can one shot all the basic shooters from suprisingly far, taking the sniper perk makes it even farther though I prefer gernades regen so I can take out a squad with them
I'm level 25, Should I buy a legendary sword or wait till level 30?
I do have a decent shotgun but that single shell reload felt bad...can give it another go...and I'm still looking for a decent bolter
Could use the perk to get 20% faster when the clip isint empty, after first shell it gets the buff which is nice
anyone found settings that don't have the game crash multiple times every single mission? this latest patch has made the game functionally unplayable
Trader has nothing?
same
Just give it a bit
everything on max has not crashed once so far. Update your drivers if possible
last patch i got some random lag spikes until i updated gpu drivers. after that has been smooth sailing again
Still hasn't loaded 😛
Yea, this hour might just be fucked.
Malice Endless Horde assassination speed runs be wild
yea, it's loaded now and when I try to buy something it takes like 30 secodns to process
Are there already informations about the criteria for unlocking the insignia?
Chaos doesn't care about 6 inches of reinforced plasteel
What's better on a flamer, more burn or more flat damage
I've been trying to make the ripper work but after getting a good stubber I cannot for the life of me understand why anyone would use the ripper. How are people getting the ripper to actually work for them? The special attack feels weak as hell and it feels like it runs out of ammo way too fast, while the stubber I can literally run for an entire mission
Good shout--I brought it up and just tabbed out for a minute and it finally showed up.
Ripper can kill a mauler in a couple of left clicks on difficulty 3
it's a shotgun, use it for hoards
Yeah but the stubber does that better
i'll give that a shot, just annoying because it was fine until yesterday 
idk it also staggers elites
Burn. Dots are strong as fuck in this game
So does my melee
dammit i already have the latest drivers
Hell stubber staggers most elites too
👍 thanks
how to do friends will be friends penance?
With friends
u gotta be
after ten game with multiple crash ,they gon do me dirty like this
precongnition is probably , if not ,one of the worst bless

What is this they posted on #📢news-bulletin
Boss? Class?
Yes, Heretic Class.
You want it?
Random question, how do I take on a Crusher as Vet lol. My shots ping off no matter where, there aint no weakpoint xD
what does "less than one Wound" in Just a Flesh Wound preacher penance mean? do all the other wounds need to be purple or just missing health is enough?
Two questions: 1. Should I save up my gold or just spend it on whatever I like in the shop? I just started playing. 2. Is there any tricks to leveling up quicker? I know higher difficulty increases exp gained but my gear is garbage so I can only spam the lowest tier difficulty
the latter and you have to have less than one bar remaining
That's the neat part, you dont
unless you have bolter or plasma
Likely the Daemon Host, last Horror we haven't seen yet.
power sword fucks him up
other wise just melee
Aight, so i know to ignore them as target.
What is the recommended worker thread number to use?
- spend it on high-roll greys/greens/blues and gear with good Blessings on them, since you will be able to transfer them to other gear when they fully implement crafting
- just speedrun difficulty 2s, takes about 15 to 20h for one character to go from 1 to 30 if you rush it
Does anyone know if the full release is gonna be better optimised?
I've been putting it to max but I've also heard to not do that.
Nah I am doing my job properly, targeting everything ranged+specials. Small or melee stuff comes only afterwards ^^
theoretically more = better, but not all of them
1 if you can stand low fps
Mine goes up to 18 able to be used.
i've tried 1-18 ,above 2 i just constantly crash lol
17 should be good then
How does stamina work? Like I have a dagger with 3 bars and a large axe with 6. Whats teh difference, and is it drain rate or what?
so what's easier between current bugged endless heresy and damnation
What is +2 Rending on weapons?
armor shredding (reduction) basically, +2 just means that it will do 2 stacks of armor-shred per hit
personally i wouldn't, go for it if u like shotties tho
i use flamethowers but it looks so good
Hey, does the update this morning in Service-updates confirm that beta progress will not reset?
yes
Sorry for the dumb question. cant find any info on how many meters the bullrush ability move with the unstoppable perk?
is it bad that I'm thinking about deleting and releveling my lvl 30 Zealot?
I think it'll feel better to grind Plasteel and Diamantite that way rather than just grinding for it with no other progress to measure xD
Imo no. You get a lot more mats in higher difficulties
Are all 7 Mission Types aviable in Beta? Just saw 5 of them until now
back again, is there only 6 mission types currently available? cause i have 6/7 done for "praise the god emperor"
correct
cool i can stop worrying about it then
yeah.. I tried Heretic(4) difficulty and got flattened hard
so I'm been stickign with malice
but sometimes it feels like even malice got tougher
yea, it does, though you can use a flamer if you want, it doesn't count towards "bullets fired"
apparently that was patched
correct, people have hats because for the first six hours of the preorder beta the 7th was available before they had to pull it for map issues (it was possible to get stuck and render it incompletable or something) so they got the one you were missing back then
well, scratch that then, not that it matters since 3 is very easy when compared to bugged 4 and regular 5
blues should be that rating, not purples
ie it's a low rating
One of my constant and main complaints rn is that the matchmaking once you hit 30 is still broken.
anyone gotten the 'Indefatigable' frame yet, tho?
Question, for the Vantage Point Penace im Missing 2 Missions, but i just dont know which these are. Like i have checked and it seems like that i didnt manage to complete an espionage and an Disruption Mission. Are they already ingame?
No idea why they still haven't fixed Heresy being stuck on Endless Horde. It makes the jump to that from Malice absolutely miserable.
disruption was only available for the first few hours since the map it is/was on was causing crashes/issues and espionage is not on rotation right now, but they exist, yes
So i assume i just have to wait until i can finish the penace right?
correct
in what way
Can anybody tell me how to get Insignia? Do i need to ask the Emperor for them?
Same for me. I missed Disruption the first day. Just waiting for that to come back to get my hat.
penances, e.g. killing 5k scabs iirc is one of them and completing 50 missions as Veteran, Zealot, Psyker or Ogryn
penances
For which I need Disruption to come back, yes.
It like puts you into a queue where you will only get other level 30 players.
So it takes forever.
So penances are the only way?
lmao i replied to the wrong dude
that is just how the matchmaking in this game works, as it seems, it prefers players close to your level over different levels, then searches for varying ones and if it doesn't find any within about 30s you get put into a lobby with bots until someone joins
correct
Seems like until now there are just 6of7 mission types released yet
ty
true but it's still pretty easy to find games except for damnation
all 7 have been released, 1 is just not available because the map was causing issues and another because it's not in rotation right now
damnation is almost impossible to find in pubs
ok, but same result: not aviable 😄
yea, I was just clarifying since you said 'released'
Yeah, and that should be changed lol. That is an issue. It shouldn't just be level 30s. A buffer should be in place, sure, but not ONLY level 30s
Hello, i'm looking for a concrete answer on gearscore. anyone know what cap is? and does it take into account gear in your inventory? so if I have a 350 gun the store wont drop above a 375 or w/e.
I havent seen anything above 408 but ive been told people have gear well above 500. around 550+
is it just rng or what?
Anyone know what error code 9999 is?
Is there a possibility to force playing with bots only?
on launch there is
cap? no idea.
no. Hedge said it is based on your level, the stats and the tier (quality) of the perks.
if you heard someone say 550+ they were most likely lying, 500 is doable, but I've never seen anything above 507 so far on the entire discord.
yes, it's rng.
"mission aborted" at the post-mission briefing screen wtf
so it's just perks quality? is that damage, stability, mobility, the +20 % damage to blah blah and the others on the bottom or both?
also want to know if i can get higher damage and whatnot on some weapons or if they are what they are
i did see we can use crafting to up the blessings
All you have to do is take an item of each upgradeable quality (grey/green/blue/purple) and see the maximum possible bonus-then add it all together, then add on top of the seemingly 400 max grey item power.
well, to clarify by perks I meant 'Blessings' they are the max 2 squares you can have at the bottom of your weaponry, they have Tiers indicated by the lines on the sides (I to IV) and by stats I mean the bars, the sum of them contributes towards power
regarding crafting you should check the latest post they made, I'll attach the picture for you
So question, the penance vantage point for sharpshooter is there anyway to track which missions you've done? I'm still stuck on 6/7 and I already see people running around with their penance helmets
to track them you have to remember or write them down
and to answer your possible question, that is because they played during the first few hours of PBT when disruption was still available
Ah okay fair I was not able to play till the day after the pbt launched.
560 is likely the theoretical cap for a mastercrafted weapon
there are multiple reports of grays of 370-390 meaning the cap for a gray is likely 400
the maximum gap between gray and mastercrafted is 160 if every perk and blessing rolls as high as it can
Wow...so...the random BS properties system of VT2 is still here, but now with ever increasing costs if you don't get what you want. Way to fuck that part up even harder.
actually it's best if im here
alright so how do I check what server im on? is it the launcher menu?
what autoguns should i be looking for on vet, if any?
braced if you wanna melt hordes, otherwise they suck
autoguns suck overall, doesnt do anything well
burst one is aight
Braced autoguns are pretty fun. I found the aimed ones to be too jumpy to be able to aim them properly.
How bad is this going to hurt on the downgrading the raw damage?
huh for some reason I was doing a lot better with autoguns than lasguns for a long while
so, how exactly is it possible to get that zealot "just a flesh wound" penance without using an exploit? how can you complete a heresy or above in 10 minutes?
ive been loving the las ever since i got the helbore mk1
not bad at all thanks to slaughterer
OK well
Does Shred work on different targets? or only the same target?
look for autoguns with great blessings on them so you can transfer them to your boltgun/plasmagun/melta (when it releases)/etc. once they fully implement crafting
Anyone else getting mission aborted error today at the result screen? Happened twice
Whoever told me the no shooting penance has the right difficulty either was wrong, or my game bugged
Are we going to be able to recycle weapon for scraps in the future?
why does it still not count as completed?
You must need to do it on Heresy Raptor
well, it worked for me, and I haven't done a single melee only run on Heresy+ so idk
You can currently scrap it for gold, and later you'll be able to scrap them to keep their blessings. That's probably all we'll be seeing.
With a gear rating jump that big, you'll probably end dealing even more damage than before, and your lightsaber mode is probably gonna kill trash mobs in 1 hit anyway
There are multiple penances that have the wrong difficulty listed
thanks-
I got from a malice mat farm, so it's free real estate. 
wait so why does it not work for me-
Gear rating only affects your stats to distribute into the weapon
Games buggy as shit @fading tree
I literally just did it on malice and didnt get it
See above
does throwing grenades count as shooting?
oof this looks pretty good
Idr if I used any
true true
That's kind of... good
also how do I check what server im in?
I already have wack uptime on my ability as a horde clearing sharpshooter
kek
edge harder
I assume there isn't a way to
alright so I have lowered the graphics to the lowest possible setting
stopped ragdolls and turned off gore
yet im still sliding around like the floor has just been mopped on
need help-
Anyone know which difficulty and map is best for mat farming?
update your drivers?
I'd say Malice cause it has a high success chance even in pubs and higher difficulties are more likely to give large stashes instead of small ones
trying in upgrade my thunderhammer and it is not working am i doing something wrong or is it just buggy/not active ?
Ccleaner says my drivers are updated
That and hersey seems to be buged with endless hordes
uhh so is the vantage point penance even possible to complete
3/4 assassination on transit hub or whatever it's called 15ish min run for 45 Diamantine (on Malice, dunno how much exactly it was on Heresy), if that's not available I run Strikes, they take a little longer tho
yes, if you played during the first few hours of PBT or you wait until they make Disruption available again
how long does the efficiency buff last ?
I feel like a grandpa
is there a key or something that shows what all the icons means? (example, the different icons weapons have for light and heavy attacks)
Is it just me or do some mission victories not seem to be counting for weeklies?
alright im gonna be embarassed to ask but
how do I update my drivers / which ones do I update?
GPU drivers, go to your manufacturer website
*graphics card
if you have an nvidia card, get the gforce experience app, itll let you update your drivers through that so you dont have to go searching
thanks-
does difficulty matter for getting crafting materials?
Is it better to just stack health now since toughness is kinda useless with the bleedthrough?
Toughness is still good, it just works different than health
is this good for my psyker?
or should i wait to see if theres a force sword
the rolls look really tasty
am I missing something? how are that good rolls?

HUGE thanks to Manshanko (who helped me with too many things to name), to CommissarTyr for his excellent armor type representations and more.

For some reason, I have yet to see a single gold item.
ill give this a watch
if it's not above 460 when mastercrafted, it's not worth milk coins
you could argue it never is
bout to watch it myself. Noticed I got 2 lightning staves with vastly different charge rates... but they seem to both charge up at the same rate
For the fellow Zealots, does anyone know how Holy Revenant is calculated?
from what I gathered so far, surge staff is great for cc, while the voidstrike staff is for the large high damage piercing projectile?
Can someone help me in achieving a penance?
This worth it?
probably not
alright am I doing the update driver thingy correctly?
if you don't like the playstyle, I'd say no. only really worth getting stuff you like the playstyle of tbh.
thank you all-
Yeah that's it. Gluck have fun
whats the strat to get the kill for dashing on a mutant?
why do they call it endless horde instead of just incrementing the level by +1?
isn't endless horde just the next level up
having the same with my thunderhammer right now
Thunder Hammer
for the mutant one, you need to have good timing-ish. Make sure that you hit mutant without stopping
I'm the one who done ( I think) every mission/map but still have 6/7 Penitance ?
there isnt a 7th mission type yet, i was confused about that one for a while too
Raising difficulty increases the health values of enemies in addition to spawning more of them, so it doesn't exactly make it strictly the next difficulty higher
So does the f ability for the preacher count as a dodge?
you can cheese it? how
apparently queuing into a lobby, getting to 1 wound and waiting for like 4-5 mins depending, then wiping
says "completing the mission" not successfully
Assassination, low horde. Get three other people to speedrun
Other “complete the mission” tasks require success (like weeklies)
So it might be a bug that gets fixed
Though I can’t imagine ever succeeding with that
cheers! will try
Sewer assassination variant. The other one has an Interrogator section
And that wastes time
The sewer only has an elevator waiting section
That said if you do get a Plague Ogryn or another mini-boss just restart
Ogryn and other zealots are better for the speedrun
Also, “Fewer Enemies” isn’t currently in rotation
RNG is frustrating with it
They’re “fixing” The modifiers right now so only Endless is showing up
Hopefully patch on Monday brings back other modifiers
Sick of endless lol
There's Nothing But the Abyss has been a bit more frustrating to me
And there’s 5-6 modified missions every rotation. Often on top of secondary missions too.
Really annoying
I'm not sure how the perk's healing is calculated
does downing mess with the timer?
No
So when can we expect disruption to come back? Release?
You just need to be below one wound before the 2:30 min mark
Only in the time it takes to get health back down
any recommendations for long bomb
At the latest, maaaaybe Monday
Practice the quick toss in meat grinder
It feels like there's an integer overflow going on with the Holy Revenant perk or could be bugged
Get a feel for the angle and distance. For me I found, on level ground, that looking up so their heads just disappear at, IDK, 30-40m? (This is what you need to get a feel for) worked best
And then try bombing static unengaged enemies and incoming hordes where there’s enough clearance and distance
I got mine against a horde
Tfw you're certain you're about to get the 100% accuracy penance...but apparently missed a shot somewhere 
I have a few questions. 1 I thought toughness was a stagger/effect counter. once depleted, you get staggered and all. no? 2 If the Zealot has no more invulnerability what is the point in the zealot anymore?
how do you reach the various threshold pips on your Circle of Trust & Class Missions?
is Hab Dreyko still bugged?
Thy Wrath Be Swift exists
No longer staggered
Are we gonna get private lobbies eventually? Trying to do Penances in Public is just very stressing and annoying
Yes
Dev's have talked about it, its coming just slowly.
what are some of the best Autoguns?
Anyone know what Ogryn Personality calls Zealots "Shouty"?
Has anyone seen some perks that actually affect character abilities/stats and not weapon attacks?
There is a 'refresh character ability' perk.
You also have so many crashes?
