Psykers rule, use voidstrike. If you aren't feeling like a god on difficulty 3, its a skill issue
Personally i think BB might need a bump in damage or something to make it better, otherwise I kinda like psyker
Unrelated but your pfp is cute
Also pls remove toughness damage bleedthrough
@crisp widget bb does enough, you just need and keep your warp charges
Thank you ^^
also dregg unners have flak armor on their back
Soulburn getting a little buff would help
soulburn is, i think, a support ability
From melee? That would make melee a joke lol
i heard someone saying people afflicted with it took +40% damage
Thats prolly the most useful part of a psyker, bulwarks really look like the perfect enemy for a psyker
That's a separate perk I thought?
soulburn essentially lets your other guys chop way through bois
Thanks for the answers mates
Arms have flak armor
Dont care, i hate being downed by a sneeze when im on full tougness 
skill issue
I mean I just feel it doesn't do it's part, even with charges it's suppose to be this big single target damage but it does very little imo
stop getting smacked to 2hp
friend playing veteran says Power Sword is too good, it's not even fun on lower than Heresy 
Don't lose health
Simply block
power sword is overtuned yeah
They make me want to servitorize myself
general consensus rn
*dont play the game
vet oveshadows everyone because of bolter and power sword
Truth
It's moveset is boring thooooo
and infernus
BBs power isnt from raw damage, its from being able to nab people in hard to hit places and hide in an area safe from ranged
but others can get infernus aswell
just dodge lmfao you are litterally invincible doing it
infernus is scuffed yeah, they're probably put a stack cap on it soon
They'll be getting melta guns on launch to
WHO
I understand that, but it's just my personal opinion on the class after playing it
Ima just sell my pc that way i wont take damage
I'm curious as to what the two-hand force sword will do
Vets ofc
Please not the vet
it would be nice if the power sword nerf made it so that it didn't need to be flicked on every two seconds
Noooo
HAHAH
you'd rather sell your pc than hit space
nice
I just want my lasguns man 
Get them
Give me a hot shot
Oh man I gotta actually play the game
imo the power sword nerf should just be infinite full dmg cleave, no bonus dmg.
I feel kinda sad, that i pushed my zealot to 30, but kinda think in late game, he is useless... in a squad
Can you even imagine the audacity
what difficulty?
the higest one
I feel the same, unironically. Im too squishy to frontline, but not as good as a vet or psyker to backline
how did you even come to that conclusion
Yeah zealot to me at least feels like the weakest class
I like having a zealot in the front line
Psyker be like
Pushing out of cohesion is what gets a lot of zealots killed
FS will be balancing for 1-3 since thats what 95% of people are going to be playing for the first month or so
yeah i mean, i would rather have an ogryn, psyker and vet in my team.
also headshots do significantly less damage to maulers
I actually feel like vets are the only class you could run 4x of and still be fine on higher tiers
You actually do more damage with bodyshots
Yeah
Also why is it all endless horde
Oh god plz no my ammo 
to be more precise, mauler heads are covered in carapace armor
Yeah thats cause powersword is broken. Once they nerf it it'll be more balanced
Plasma/lasgun/bolter/autogun vets all with power swords
Anyone have thoughts on what the best melee weapon for zealot is?
yeah
so there is a small variety of weapons that deal more damage on headshots to them
Even on maps without endless horde get it when you load in 
Im kinda slightly in love with the thunder hammer
Keep in mind this is with a weapon WITH +25% carapace armor damage
@versed bolt dagger with lacaret, or axe with shred
I believe alot of people play with eviserator
same weapon on bodyshot
Wot's lacaret now
this is on damnation for the test mind you
is there any way to tell what mission type you've yet to clear? im missing one on my zealot and I dont know which one it is
@shut crown bleed on hit
are heavy attacks in general best for killing armored targets?
The only way is asking your brain
crap, that thing is useless
Is it a blessing/perk, or do all knives do that
Relatable
I sit here and await hotshot lasguns
@shut crown its a perk on the combat knife.. still need to find one
any ogryns want to wall for me so i can get the psyker cliffhanger penance?
generally speaking, heavy attacks do more damage to armor, but there is a select number of cases where this is not true (the vermintide 2 2 handed hammer does shit damage with its heavies to armor, but its lights are fantastic for it). there can even be a very slight dps difference if your lights can pierce armor, again select cases
@shut crown play axe with shred, and maintain the bloodlettering buff
Your prayers might be answered if you kill enough heretics
Lemme guess, shred causes bleed?
Soulblaze sucks ass
I have a 152 hours 
@shut crown no, 4.5 crit chance on hit 5 time stackable
4.5% all about crit, for bloodlettering
But did you kill all the heretics?
Hesus christus that's a lot
@shut crown yeah and with that you cause bleed dmg
psykers are all hopped on on warp juice, so they bigger by default
True fire the Ursa claws
I should really try that. Im just stuck on my thunder hammer
To be fair hitting someone for like 1342 is just mmmmm
RIGHT?!
@shut crown try this build and as i said, dagger with lacarete or axe with shred, and you dont gonna lose any toughness, expect you stand in fire
Never has there been a better feeling than oneshotting a crusher on Damnation
@shut crown was first too, yeah hammer awesome, but with this build, you are kinda invincible
Oooh i see what you're playing with. I only worry about melee bleedthrough. Hate it when the poxwalkers just ignore my toughness
So yea, I just tried using a Soul Blaze build on Heresy and it was terrible in every regard. I think I generated fewer force charges than the one that just generates from attacks.
@shut crown you are so fast, with those weapons, you can dodge every attack
Once again, for newbies on armor types. I really want to go over this.
these infested mutated lookin lads with the horns and barely any clothes are "infested" armor type
I mean now, if i get to pilot a warhound here, i wont be asking for anything else ever again
This makes me sigh, all this different armour. "(optional none) light, medium, heavy." Sorted.
good or na
seems like shit damage/penetration
unless decent shredder stat makes up for it for elite kills
infested armor.
what's the best difficulty for leveling?
unarmored
1's and 2's
looks decent but you could probably get better
2's get the extra modifiers for XP but more difficult
even with the xp on 3s being so much higher?
I really want a dedicated support class that lore wise is a tech priest
The difficulty jump between 2 and 3 is massive. Even with a full group of 30's, I failed one earlier today cos we just got destroyed by elite after elite. Two trappers and a mutant failed the mission
i need some info about "friends will be friends" ogryn penance please. If people are just down, not dead and still in coherence, is the challenge f*cked ?
Endless is bugged rn, it is ALWAYS active rn
Why not a tech priest then. They can get a lil servo skull thats either an auspex, a medikit or an ammo box
What does impact do?
ah i've been running on 3s and hating life trying to level on them, good to know even 30s can struggle
are you sure? ive done malice with endless horde and without and its a big difference
So I'm judging enemies by "Healthbar per lasgun shot"
I don't personally touch 3's until my alts are like 25
malice is ez af for lv30 even 2 lv30 could speedrun through them
No I mean like I wanna play a tech priest that's a support
for refrence, on an unarmored enemy, a single lasgun shot does 199 damage, and brings it to basically 1 health, on damnation
I can sleepwalk through 3s at this point, but 4s kick my ass
or 2 health
Hersey is at least I don't play Malice rn
Maybe they'll releas a support Techpriest class
I would be so happy
ah yeah i think heresy and above always has endless horde for some reason yeah
I love admech
is anyone having trouble upgrading the power hammer at the mechanicus lady?
I'm leveling as a psyker and i love the class, but dang it feels kinda clunky
A friend of mine thinks they might release a new class on launch, cause there's 5 character slots so far for creation, but only 4 classes
cyz 4s buggeed always endless horde
Hammer is buggedo
preesh
ive had 3 slug monstrosities in a single 4
Hecking love slugs
also "Dreg rager" is its own armor type
pretty sure rager is the same as maniacs
havent tested this, but it makese sense to me
Excuse me you come in here and disrespect our tech priest Hanron Omega-7-7
Get out

bro just gimme an assassination
She aint upgrading my thunder hammer tho
She also kinda gives me fauly Interrogators all the time
If you would just pray to the machine spirit it would work fineeee
replace machine spirit with circuits
man pushing the activate button on the thunder hammer fills me with a righteous power
Ai?!?! Heresy you would dare twist the machine God's holy design
We had the men of iron once
Lol
Didnt go well
Question. Is the Force Blade currently removed from the shop?
Nawr
What is a force blade?
25 psyker that haven't seen any in store for days and over 10 levels
@sleek oracle You're experiencing what's called The Desire Sensor. You want it too much and the game knows that so it's intentionally not giving you any Force Swords
the game can smell your weakness
Get bolters instead
is this with a headshot or a body shot?
I just keep getting autoguns (which i hate) and Axes (which i DESPISE) xD
Anyone available to play on Herecy? I'm trying to get "Make Every Shot Count"
autoguns feel a lot better after the buff they gave them awhile ago, ammo and recoil feels so much better
controllable enough to spray, good accuracy when ADS, and pretty good damage, especially when unloading into armor
I th ink it's just a random part of the interface, I don't think it means anything
it's attached specifically to missions though
You need a better lazgun. I dont have this issue with mine in any way shape or form. Still a solid 1 shot on damnation.
I wonder, for level 25 perk as a Psyker... 6 charges, or Kinetic Flamer.
but just to be sure, have anyone seen force swords in store last 2 days?
I just bought a neew one a few minutes ago
it's on the background as kind of part of the interface, I think it's baed more on the area of the screen than specific mission themselves
just bought one
Yes, its pure rng.
bodyshot
it was just for refrence on comparing this to the infested
Roger that, Yeah def need a new lazgun. bodyshot and headshot are one shot. and I do 657** to ragers.
Tough one bro, good luck
kind of depends on the build, I'm running reduce peril based on charges and random charge on each kill from level 15, and that helps alot with using the flamethrower staff in hordes
You have an opportunity to receive a Gift of The Emperor should you complete the mission.
Appreciate it
Gifts are gear.
i'v taken the one that can pop head with 10% with every hit landed
works great
I will give it a try then!
at 4 stacks you can use your staff for a long time if you get lucky with the peril quell on kill and losing it faster than you'd gain, so extra stacks in that case would make that easier on top of helping damage
the chance for a free brain burst on hit also sounds incredible too
RNG needs a kick in the balls 😮
if you want to do it legit, there are folks in the lfg channel who will def help. If you want to cheese it same thing, folks are always down. Cant recall 100% but I think you only have to hit any number of pellets from the shotgun to maintain 100% accuracy.
especially since I assume it doesn't cause peril or anything, so fast melee weapons work nicely agianst strong targets
Hmmm a support tech priest class could probably have a couple neat tricks for working with tech based objects which would honestly be cool
Btw, anyone know if someone has soloed the monstrosity as a psyker yet? 😛
emperor's gift should really be a guaranteed roll every mission IMO. I've gone 4+ hour play sessions without getting a single one
Tech priest does seem fitting for a pet class
yeah, helped a homie get it yesterday on heresy. Wasnt to bad. beast of nurgle is your best bet
Plenty did
Braun burst does good damage
Oh what is wounds on a curio? I got one that said +1 Wounds
It’ll take time and a team willing to farm it, but it’s not hard
damn i'm jealous
I actually helped a few people do this when demon hosts show up when I play Bob
if you could check out this post, I'd greatly appreciate it. It's about how emperor's gifts could be fixed instead of being solely rng https://forums.fatsharkgames.com/t/emperors-gifts-rng-change/61795
Currently, the emperor’s gifts seem to be tied to pure RNG. While sometimes you get lucky, I’ve gone days between earning gifts, which frankly feels terrible. While I know that gifts are usually junk, it’s still nice to have a chance at getting something decent. What I propose is instead of having it based off solely RNG, once you hit 30, you s...
How many bars of health you have; when you go down you lose a bar of tbay with curses
segments on your health bar, basically an extra down
you get an extra bar of health to counteract the mechanic that drains your health.
ah ty
remember it doesnt give extra hp though, just increases the sections
what feats are folks running on their evis/bolter zealots?
thats correct, my wording implied that incorrectly.
still a bonus as a psycker I get downed a lot because my team mates run off to neverland while I'm trying to quell
let it quell over time mebbe
i've grabbed the lvl20 active quell no-slowdown talent tho myself
Staff quelling has next to no slowdown on top of quelling faster, plus you can still dodge and get better movement than just walking
staff quelling has noticable slowdown
Strafe dodging takes getting used to when quelling but it’s nice
Armoury exchange does not bring me knife or eviscerator like 5 refresh (5hours). Why? What should I do?
It’s still way faster than quelling with the burst
they nerfed strafe dodge to go faster than walking tbf
oh okay. I should start using a staff then
staff is pretty good purely for quell improvement yeah
Staffs are too powerful, quelling without it is painful
or, i think, the force sword?
you do the 👌 when quelling with force sword, which is just amusing
I haven’t used the force sword much and forgot it could even quell
I mean do you know there lore? They control servo skulls, Skitarii ect, ect, even in the game mechanicas they control lesser units
a tech priest wouldnt be in the position the game puts PCs in
Yeah, but doesn’t fit the 3 archetypes
But we want a support, a little tech priest to throw out buffs to the party
tech priests are more metal than man and can be reprogrammed if they act up
Are there other colour variations of the tier 2 penance helmet for Veteran?
Unfortunately true, but I want it
is there a weapon tier list thing anywhere? preferably with explanation
Best I'm likely to get is a Skitarii
Nah
is standing in different corners and only using melee some kind of new strategy i'm not aware of?
worth picking up on zealot?
skitarii arent veteran tech priests what
Make me
they're like, practically robots with no autonomy
That's so good! I'm willing to do both if it's , thank you so much for the advice
do you need the force sword to do cliffhanger?
Hrmmm only staff I had was the force staff I think? one that makes a aoe circle, I hated it. The other staffs any better?
Literally, how boring is that
A castellan robot on thin legs
no, it's through use of your ult
when you're firing radiation guns you probably need the least flesh possible tbf
You CAN use a force sword push
So I've got a bunch of legendary curios from mission rewards. I'm guessing those don't count towards my curio gear score watermark? Everything in the store is much lower than the legendary ones. Do I still need to keep creeping that score up by buying lower score ones?
Also, do curios (and items in general) need to be equipped when the store resets to count towards what the store is populated with?
wait really?
i'm asking if it makes it easier
Yus
Depends, rangers and vanguard tend to have more brain activity then lower ranking Skitarii
Did it today
WHAT
because i'm running dueling sword
Makes it a lot easier
I spent so much time bashing my head against a wall using only my ult
imma go cry now
it's only enough autonomy to make combat decisions though; they're not really approaching a normal human agent
it's essentially utilising the brain slightly more as an independent processor that doesn't need direct commands
Most of us... Them die after a year or two IF they don't die in battle but hey, human life has no value, only knowledge has value
And they give there life in honor of the machine god
Which is the highest honor!
just do what true senior tech priests do and practically upload your brain into your tech
resuscitation protocols but for mechanicus when
They have some
Pull a Belasarius, invent new space marines and go in retirement at the young age of 10 thousand years old
the ripe young age of 10k
looks decent, great stats, those are some nice bonuses, and I think that main effect can probably be better but still usable
dark admech is rad, and call is doing fun Hersey things
Anyone know anything about this?
Is this ai? "No"
tbf AI is allowable even inside the imperium
they just couch it in fancy words
aka "machine spirit"
like damn yeah im sure that tank that drives and shoots on it's own is just a "machine spirit"
Excuse me there is a human brain in there
no like flat out
simply wire a brain in 9head
"hey priest why is there a brain attached to cables in this part, it's already rotting"
Dont kastellan robots have human brains in them?
Yes
Most of there stuff does
Even titans
Just throw a couple of guys in it it'll be fine
The average pen and no bleed effect hold it back from being really good but the Crit + elite damage makes it tasty. Wouldn’t be a bad take but might have difficulty taking down bulwarks and crushers with it.
Knights uploaded the psyke of a it's previous pilots into the current pilot
is it just me or is it kinda hard to do a light after push stab on the mk6 ogryn kinfe?
it took like a solid 3 pace
Imperium of man in a nutshell
how did you get those health bars to show up? is that a mod or in the options?
psykanium meat grinder @versed bolt
Meat grinder
how do you use the weapon trikinets?
i think i got some accesories from penances but idk where to equip them
what is the difference between lucious lasgun marks? are they upgrades or do they have different stat preferences?
there's differences between all the mks of each weapon but im not sure of the lucius specifcs
they all have slightly different handling, if that's the helgun with the bayonet, I think it effects the charge on it?
like I think one has weaker but faster charges for examples
Open your inventory, click on the weapon, and press V (I believe, or C) to view it. The tab for charms will be on the top left
the different marks of melee weapons mainly changes the swing patterns, some guns like headhunter autoguns switch between 3 round burst, 2 round burst, and semi auto, with difference handling/damage
Its in the psykanium, its an ingame training mode
What are some preferable ogryn shield stats?
Is it me or are headhunter autoguns kinda doodoo? I just tried a blue semi-auto variant and I can't imagine a scenario where I'd like to use it over a lasgun, braced autogun or bolter
so where do you guys farm your Plasteel?
For a Veteran trying to heavy cleave wave clear - should I buy the one on the left or keep the one on the right?
gesus ty
The Plasma Gun feels like a self-sabotage if you pick it. It's a worse Bolter in every way. Thoughts?
With over 90 hours, I agree with this assertion.
shame
plasma gun gets equipped way faster than bolter
thats basically how it is unfortunately
bolter takes half a century to equip
That is true too
Frankly its not much faster
Like, what is this? This is just bloody depressing
really low ammo roll
sure, but let's assume it's 200
I haven't had a bolster yet so I don't know how that feels to use, but from footage it seems better in every way. Plasma gun felt nice on bosses but in general it's just so clunky to use
This is just bloody depressing
Correct.
Quick question, does weekly mission progress does not count if you are in progress in a mission when the timer runs over?
wait until you see its damage lul
I had 30 dregs left to kill, started a mission 6 minutes before end and it didn't trigger
i think that's the semi auto version which all tend to have low ammo but I assume monster damage? i've yet to get one
It kicks harder than a lasgun, it deals less damage than a lasgun
its a worse XII in every conceivable way
yeah, no
I wouldn't call it anymore self sabotage than picking any of the other weapons on vet that aren't the bolter and power sword... I mean they're just the two best weapons for the class
give me a sec
i tried the 2 round burst one and hated how it felt, but I did notice pretty nice damage when I was able to land double headshots with how admitedly low recoil it had
even if it shoots like my bullets are covered in glue
What's the Best perk for the Catachan Devil Claw Sword?
all the autoguns are pretty accurate from the hip too
yeah it's trash, it has horrible irons, horrible ammo cap, horrible damage, horrible armor, it can't even auto, it really is depressing and I don't understand what it's purpose is
don't ADS as much and just hipfire and you'll notice a lot of the time it'll hit dead center
i've used a braced auto to kill snipers before
Veteran wave clearing; would you keep the right one or take the left one?
single tap pews
even standard ones have similar acc
their ammo does look pretty low though
i still think they could do with an ammo buff, because frankly i just keep using braced
and it kicks like half a screen up
hipfire it
if you try to tap it
but why?!
autoguns are good at hipfire
I'm assuming ignore enemy hit mass is better cause I noticed on power sword the more cleave you can get the better, my lower power, lower damage power sword with higher cleave and a perk for getting more cleave feels like it outperforms my higher damage power sword
all of them are
no lol hipfire them that's their point
@rigid wasp Thanks boss
the hipfire isnt good enough to justify using it in most circumstances
i don't like the irons on autoguns but they feel better now than how they did before in the old beta and when this beta launched
left. Both are good, left is better for what power sword excels at. Horde clear
but the headhunter autogun is supposed to be a dmr
you can accurately snapfire an autogun unlike a lasgun
semi-auto single target autogun, described as "sniper rifle" in the description
just hipfire lol
hipfire the sniper, smh
I mean don't just take my word for it, I'm a total noob and I'm still figuring out what I'm doing, I struggle with heresy atm
all the lasguns besides the becon fit better as a DMR since they're all semi auto
@heavy shuttle even though it's cleave bars are lower, the modifiers make it better?
it isnt bad and its way better than lasgun hipfire but you still arent going to hit very far with it
power sword infinite cleaves with special attack. cleave is wasted stat
lasguns just fit the dmr role better if you want to right click scope in
Not sure it is really that, but if it is then it need to be changed, there are better ways to make them unique and lore friendly
they look like they have a ton of ammo but they use 3 bullets per shot so it events out
is it RNG which quality of the item you get by completing the mission or is it reduced based on the performance of the team?
does it cause my higher cleave power sword feels like it goes further than my lower cleave power sword
no they really shouldnt change it, lasguns already have the ADS stuff down, autoguns work for us hipfire bois
Why would I ever touch a headhunter? It's just nuts, it feels like nobody playtested it
i think it's baed on what point of the game you're at, so if you're late gate, they tend to be high rarity with total rating fitting weapons you'd be getting from the shop
xii is overtuned rn
fuck the psyker penances omg they are so dumb
like it does better than the charge-up lasgun dps wise
If you power up the sword with special attack, it doesnt stop.
Any ogryn players wanna do friends will be friends?
bolter is too OP. X12 needs buff to compete
@heavy shuttle isn't that what cleave targets is for? the amount of targets you can get through?
I dunno man, might be, but even if hellbore had like 2 times more DPS I'd never touch it due to how ass it feels
Is a Heresy/Damnation mission the kind people would drop-into randomly (without prep, VoiceChat, StrikeTeam)? 👍 👎
you can test the dps yourself
I know how the power sword works, I'm saying that there seems to be a noticeable difference even with the power on
true
and i raaaannn, i ran so far awaaayyy
it's kind of a decent back up since the lasguns have decent feeling hipfires in hordes/panic situations, though the limits are weird, a crit body shot would remove the effect and outside a special, you'd probably 1 shot then without the crit
The power sword already has perfect cleave when powered. Extra cleave is extra waste that could be spent elsewhere
the base power sword is so good it basically doesnt even matter what rolls you get on it
I just run the perk that gives crit for stamina and the one that gives stamina for dodging bullet
big crit hours
yes and no
ty 🙂 I first got a blue, then a purple and after that two greys :<
at worst, you can just upgrade it or sell it for extra cash
i haven't touched a hellbore gun in a while but besides the sway being abysmal, I like it
the bayonet actually felt fun to use and gave temp health like a normal kill, and it actually felt better to aim from the hip
Damn I want just get that Just a Flesh wound and right now it's simple atm
though apparently charging it only effects the armor pen which feels weird
Unless you’re an aimbot, I think it’s best to focus on body shot dps.
cant block with it 😦 otherwise it could have had potential. Better to just whip out the PS
the sway with the fact that it only has ironsights is nuts, yeah
Not a bad set.
scrip one's gonna take the longest I think
the swap speed on the hellbore is bad but that's why I like the bayonet, don't have to switch back and forth if something gets close
which negates that problem somewhat
This made me laugh harder than it should have. I feel your pain having helped several people do this.
im really hoping they add a way to put sights on guns, i understand no attachment system but the ironsights in this game are atrocious
No idea. I’ve gotten a mastercrafted curio before in a mission that involves my team acquiring all three scriptures but I can’t be sure if that had a direct impact.
also I have to check with other stuff, but I noticed that all the weapon bash attacks on the ogryn counted as heavy attacks since they applied bleed with his 10 feat
but fighting in melee with ranged weapon is so punishing due to devs reducing player mobility... and no block
cliffhanger should really be 10 enemies or something jesus christ
it's too slow for hordes but it's nice when roaming and you're running into small groups of commons or commons are trickling in
does anyone know what brittleness does?
Id rather have holosights or bolter's armor pen for that trade off
God I wish there was a way of seeing what mission types have been played for penances that require specific ones, got 6/7 on Vantage Point 2 (correct me on the name) and I am not sure which one it is
I dont believe the map is in rotation today but all it really takes is team mates who are willing to go down trying to huddle stuff together. Usually doesnt take that much but thats mostly what holds you back.
uh, guys, what's going on here
This is highly Skitarii and Forgeworld dependent. Several minor Forgeworlds have soldiers who aren't much different than Astra Militarum, just fanatically zealous and with a few augmentations. Others deploy specially-trained Skitarii on Kill Teams (usually with much more autonomy than Frontline units).
Still others, usually more rarely, will assign Skitarii and minor Tech Adepts to working with an Inquisitor, especially in the Lathe Worlds.
Other times, various Mechanicus assets, including Skitarii, may find themselves "accidentally gifted" to the Inquisition, either through deliberate hijacking or because an Inquisitor knows a little too much about some of the more interesting side projects a certain Magos is running.
veteran has more ammo
If you are veteran you get more ammo.
? Lasguns have alot of ammo? Vets make it better?
either cliffhanger should be easier or psyker's ult should be buffed
thanks, I completely forgot about it for some reason lol
it probably unironically is a "machine spirit" considering they can be replaced with demons
it doesn't even knock them back that far it just knocks them on their ass
haha, its nice right. Especially if you find a good MG IV with like 800 plus in reserve. end up with over 1100 in game and they only use 2 shots. Im trying to find a cracked ass gray one so I can take it to masterwork with good rolls.
in the case of that one vehicle it's genuinely just ai iirc
300 shots with an XII is a bit of an XD tbh
MG12 is an awesome lasgun. Wish it had a carapace workaround
yeah, dude, it's nuts, I never run out of ammo
like ever
hey guys, how good is corruptio resistence on a Curio? 🤔
for grims? its pretty decent.
its pretty bad because of how unrewarding grims are
is the lights out special condition still appearing?
but if you're running grims then its alright
Ive been using this for a bit since I got it up to purple with good rolls. 2 shot headshots ragers on damnation. Ammo aint bad either. Could do with a bit more but I never notice running out.
the kantrael mg xii as depicted in darktide is truly one of the most accurate depictions of the lasgun in all 40k fiction, reliable, capable at it's job, and just absurdly boring compared to even it's inferior alternatives
start of the Special Ammo mission where you carry all the tubes at the end, theres a bridge on left side, take a horde there and then get psyker on main bridge and you can ult off like 60 dudes at once. we got the achieve for 2 psykers off of one horde
Absurdly boring?
yeah, this is really sweet, good luck with getting it to gold
I love the mgxii
thats a tasty lasgun
Reduces the amount of Corruption you get from all sources, it's pretty decent. I wouldn't put it as better than, say, Wounds or Stamina, but it's pretty good
Yes, compared to most of the other guns
Thanks for the good luck gents. I'll pray to zyzz that well all make it.
how is red zap zap boring
ill post results later today. good or bad.
Is there anyway to disable the popups that take up the middle of the screen? Just used the hellbore for the first time, and it blocks half the screen, while the popup blocks the rest.
just think you're in a gasmask with limited vision
like a true kriegsman
not enough grendades for that
If Im bored during a match, chances are my team is getting shot up by some range Im not paying attention too... Now, a zealot hiding behind a crate until the vet clears out the 5 gunners and 3 reapers? Yeah that could be a tad boring... but they get theirs in due time
I'd rather the ka-chunk of a bolter, dakka from an autogun, the boom of a shotty, even compared to the accatran's laser dakka, it just doesn't feel as interesting, though I suppose that's subjective tho
Oh you mean effect-wise...
I like the Lasguns in Darktide. They're solid, they are easy to use (Helbore excluded), they pack a punch, and they function in a Squad Marksman or Infantry Rifle role. They also carry a lot of ammunition compared to, say, a Bolt Gun, even a human-sized Bolt Gun is comparable to the OICW in terms of bulkiness and weight.
Yeah man, it kinda is. I find them the most enjoyable guns so far. Other games already did bolters, but I haven't seen a game nail a lasgun so well before lol
It makes sense why they're the go-to rifle of the Guard
punchy and smooth
yup
crunch crunch
I am so sick of these crashes
especially since now I get to also crash after reconnecting!
The recon lasgun is fun. Give it the right buffs and it scythes poxwalkers and burns down mini bosses.
I cant wait till they nerf the bolter, that way I dont have to convince myself not to play the cheese
they'd be fine if not for the insane sway :(
what did you think I meant? I wasn't disputing it's effectiveness in the slightest, just saying it's like, as standard a weapon as it comes, and it makes sense considering it's lore, I'm not surprised that despite it being arguably the best weapon for a guardsman to use, both gameplay and lorewise, that people mess around with other stuff
im guessing recon is good with crit stacking?
Bolter really doesn’t need a nerf.
1.0.9 - the Bolter was nerfed, the reload time is now 16 seconds
Gameplay/tactically boring.
tbh I don't think the bolter needs a nerf, it's a situational gun with low ammo cap, you can only use it very situationally, if anything they need to remove that long ass racking animation
Autoguns could use some love, though. I would boost the Weakspot damage of Headhunter rifles and give them optics, and buff the ammo of Infantry Autoguns.
If it is nerfed, it’ll be something like a magazine cap reduction. Go from 15 to 12 or 10.
the only thing id do to a bolter would be to lower its damage a bit and thats only to make balancing the plasma gun easier
The bolter fills the lasgun's role of sniping 1 shots on elites specials on ADS. Hip fire auto deletes all armor/most monsters in hilarious time.
yeah the autoguns could def use an ammo buff considering that damage and precision wise they're outperformed by pretty much all the lasguns and yet still have less ammo
just had this idea too, right? If only headhunters dealt massively increased weakspot damage, it would've made a lot of sense
the low cap, the iron sights
but nope
Ammo consumption is negated due to PS just being so damn good on horde clear
they buffed the infantry autoguns quite a lot, im running the agripinaa mk1 and i find its the best gun vet has access to
It's in the name, should be used like a bolter to one tap elites
Not sure if vet is going to be the class for me when it seems its just a bunch of ADS iron sights
Tracking
The iron sights kill me
when did they buff the agripnaa mk1? I am a big fan of it but it's also imo the only good ads autogun, columnus shoots too quick and is too jumpy, graia has too low an ammo cap, the burst fires are... well burst fire
it was a few days ago
i think inthe second patch or so of the pre order beta
all the infantry autoguns got huge buffs
they "bumped up" autoguns, not saying what that was, but they did feel nicer
headhunter and braced were unchanged
Lasgun holosights are decent, still waiting for my fucking zoomable scope though
i felt like the ammo and recoil were improved
I liked the braced versions but not being able to ads as a vet sucks
i kind of want a proper sniping wepaon for specials, the closest we really have is the revolver
even the holo sight is a worse version of an actual holosight
38,000 years in the future and zero progress in optics
wut
the accurate versions of the brace gun can be decent at range
makes sense in the case of braced, braced autoguns all perform just fine, though the agripnaa brace is def my favorite with it's power and comparative accuracy, dunno why they'd leave the headhunter untouched tho
darktide doesn't seem like the kind of game to have a bolt action sniper in it
do ytou happen to remember which difficulty that was on?
yeah braced autoguns are fine, they dont scale well into difficulty 4/5 but thats not the guns fault
It could work if we get a class for it
headhunter are the worst guns in the game
Say ratling
high stability lasgun with headshots is pretty damn great. I can run around Heresy with it and stack up many special bodies
What about, say, a sharpshooter class?
Might be a passive like you cloak while ads
honestly all my difficulty 4 games were a fucking rollercoaster so far, mostly like here's 3 dogs and 2 mutants, have fun
Malice.
like camo expert?
What is the maximum rating for weapons?
lol
Like actual camo
Just disappear not just less likely to hit you which doesn't work half the time
Anyone know how to do veteran deadeye semi efficiently
current theory is 560
Or we have to be still
camo expert actually worked better than I thought, there's just no feedback on it being in effect
Step 1: Cry
Step to don't play with other vets
you have to be still and you need people around you to draw aggro, but when that's happening, you're free to shoot and even melee stuff
Because fk getting more ammo then I use at the end sucks
Thats not the penance
Im still surprised on how effective it can be... I sometimes feel like that one kid from World War Z when all the zombies are running past him oblivious
alot of playing with camo expert is praying that it actually works
ive been trying for an hour and people keep not listening to me on voice
Yes! I was playing with it on heresy earlier and I was a stationary power sword turret, hordes ran around me even while I sliced them up
I usually just use duck and dive, might try camo again
Its the kill 5 highlighted enemies on heresy
Last time I used it was for the achievement and that took several tries
on weakspots
I tried running covering fire on vet with an auto pistol and that's another one where i'm not sure if it's actually doing anything or not half the time
pick the feat that makes your ability highlight normal shooters then bring an XII lasgun and headshot 5, its best to pop your ability on a fresh ranged horde and kill a gunner after 2 kills to reset duration
Honestly, I'd add either the a
Yeah. Its so simple pre launch
oh. Just get a high damage weapon (like MG XII), find a good vantage point and start gitting good. I don't really think there's more to it
It's very situational so I ended up using the optics or the demo team perk
Demo is useless to after 20 game tries
i don't notice demo too much either
yeah pretty much, i did it with a laspistol 🤷
that's what i did, unfortunatly the only mission was on malice difficulty with endless horde, and that was the most i could get off before the hordes stopped coming and were replaced with 50 billion specials
maybe if you have friends you can make some weird setup where you try to herd enemies without killing them
I don't like grenades too much honestly, I feel like the frags have low blast range, and I forget to use them on everyone else
but dude, that's so much effort...
unfortunately i don't have friends
ogryn with the shield can help
It's hard to tell if demo actually works tbh
but yeah, alot of the psyker challenges are kind of just terrible
Like could my teammates be getting grenades but I just have bad luck
the idea of giving grenades to people sounds nice, especially for an ogryn
especially since the spawn chance should be decent
did you get it yet?
5% sounds great but I swear it's like 1% or less
What would I be looking for to complete this? Is it a specific mission type or?
Also hope they fix counterfire soon
Jump into a discord team below. Ask for their help. If they say yes, good. Find a group of highlighted enemies using your volley fire (counterfire feat). Let ability recharge dont agro. get the zealot to throw his stun grenade in, claim 5 heads
i think that's a specific mission
No but all you need to do is be at 1 wound for 7 or so minutes and then the team has to die and it counts as completed
Read the mission/zone descriptions
Which mission is that?
im aware, unable to get people to do it lol
i don't think that mission's even in the game yet
is epsionage back yet
It was on yesterday
Sorry, for buffing Plasma, I would let the Charged Shot pierce through Bulwark Shields considering they are kinda meant for that purpose
No cause I only do 3/4
but skill there feels to have increased
so maybe people are moving up
i only do diff 1/2 missions to grind weeklies or when i'm a hair away from a level
I am curious, can plasma pen multiple bodies? I know revolver can but it feels like plasma doesn't, and it would be sorta weird if a slug had more penetration power than a superheated ball of sun, but I've not been using it that long yet
Just head straight to 3 then if you think your good enough to not weigh your team down
Why's server's fully actif members 🤔
i'm pretty sure the plasma can pen, but it has no AOE at all
Is there an easy way to ensure you play with all bots? I can't figure out a way tog et cliffhanger done while doing pubs
Whats funny is that Ive already seen "Imagine not being max lvl by now" idiots 🤮
i tested the plasma in training and did see the piercing, but the projectile seems kind of small
I hope they add morelevels.
desert level feels like different game
i'd just like something that XP gets used for after max level
Plasma standard shots can pierce like 3 or 4 Plague Zombies worth of Hit Mass I've found.
Plasma overcharged shots I am pretty sure get unlimited Pierce except against Monstrosities (though I haven't normally been paying attention to see if my charged shot is piercing the Monstrosity as long as it's dealing damage).
I hope that we get more DRG zen gurus to even out the 40k fan bloodthirsters.
they said 12 levels in total at launch which seems nice, it just that we've been too used to the levels coming in over time and only a set amount at a time rather than being able to choose them all
Yeah it should have AoE like the Voidstrike staff's charged projectile does.
As it is, it only explodes on contact with a Surface, not an enemy
We leveled up so much faster then verm2 and theres none of the cosmetic levels after max either so im hopeful
back to work I go
i don't understand this penance, isn't the distance on the charge set?
sry to bother you again. Just did a mission with that flag on the side but got no item. Are you sure that flag means that you get a drop from the run? Or did I read it wrong and it means you get a RNG chance?
An Alternative buff to Plasma I would consider would be either DoT or Brittleness Stacks, and illuminating the area around the target.
There is a feat that lets you go farther and another that can reduce cooldown
rend stack maybe? Or even an infernus stack built into charge
i would just like the plasma gun to feel better to shoot, and either better 1 shot capabilities or easily 2 shotting everything in the game short of a boss
Eitherway, I dont know how exactly to math up the plasma... but... It needs to be one of the best guns the veteran has.
In lore it fucks, in game it sucks
I saw rend plasma but the stopping power was pretty low
Might have been really good tbh
Which level has the catwalk in the begining where you can cheese the penances from the spawn area and let them come to you up top?
I mean in lore it's charged shot has some aoe I believe
That would help the gun quite a bit tbh
Bring fleetwood mac back
sry i wanted to post a screen shot of my sword
What stat affects the spread on shotguns?
i think stability effects spread on top of recoil
nope, just weapon sway by the looks of it
Yeah, something like that! Make the Stacks last a good duration, too, and stack up to like 5 or so.
so I don't think anything can, but the special fire of the shotgun does change the spread
Make it the anti armor answer for vet. Nerf bolter from hip-fire full auto to semi
more damage means better damage fall off, that's close enough
the plasma gun should reliable kill anything in 1-2 shots, so any chance should help that part of it out
make it as heavy duty of a big enemy deleter as possible
Is the zealots one challenge “get 50 kills in 10secs bugged ? I was using the bolter gun and I’ve done it a couple of times and it still says I only killed 11 . ?
I don't think that would be a nerf cause that's something that would make it better tbh
i tihnk they have to be stunned by your nade?
I’ve done that
How is removing full auto hip fire not a nerf?
Absolutely. If someone is bringing a Plasma, they should be railing Armored enemies. Like, that weapon is one of the few in-game that is capable of efficiently killing an MEQ, and it's behind Level 25, not Level, what, 15 like the Bolter?
extra AOE to the plasma gun would make it more versatile but I think it not being decent against hordes would be fine if it was better at it's main job
Tbh giving the plasmagun sights would be a good start
I remember wishing it had semi auto hipfire personally, but maybe I'm odd
i feel like the accurate of it normally isn't bad, but I don't like the delay on firing it
I was hoping to use it like a higher ammo cap revolver tho when I got it
No, not before everyone has had a chance to get 100% accuracy penance
Any reason why the daily shop resets randomly? Kinda annoyed that there was a great flamer in the shop and by the time i had the currency for it, it's gone
1 hr on the hour reset
i have to check the stats of it again but doesn't the plasma gun have less ammo than a bolter when you take into account that it uses more than 1 ammo per shot, especially when you do the charge shot?
There should be a little minute counter at the bottom of the shop too, telling you when its going to reset
? I saw it in the shop with 23 hours left, ran a mission, and it was gone.
Yeah I have had that happen a few times 
The daily shop, not the hourly one. The one for the weekly currency.
the challenge shop I think is daily, but not the normal shot you spend with normal cash
Ah, no I dont think it should randomly reset unless the weekly reset fucked it up
I think it might have haha.
I noticed it swapped earlier. I wasn't paying too much attention at the time
No flame-flame 4 u!
how should i be using the plasma?
It seems like maybe it's an error when you level up, it resets the shop options
Paper weight.
Question: Am I wasting all my lil crafting materials by using them to upgrade weapons I bought? I'm close to a master crafted cadian chainsword but I get the feeling people are saving them for something else and I dont want to feel like a dummy when the beta ends
plasma is a special killer
does just a flesh wound require you have just have low health, or to also have less than a wound left uncorrupted?
other weapons like the autoguns are decent at killing specials when you dump a mag into them, but the plasma gun is suppose to be able to kill anything in 1-2 shots, and has low ammo to fit that
Slaughtering Specials pretty much.
The Standard Shots can also be used against Hordes somewhat effectively due to their Pierce, but not as well as, say, a Bolter.
Also, try to line the Overcharged shot up so that it hits the ground or a wall right behind the enemy you want to hit with it, that way they also get caught with the explosion from hitting a surface.
Yo guys looking for a good lasgun and I dunno whether to buy this one with ghost, It doesn't have alot of damage
Or wait OR get this salvaged one and build it up?
i think the second one might get potentially better with stats, but I think the top one is fine honestly
You'll want a grey 350 if youre trying to go rags to riches strat
It's usually better to get gray with better stats over blues
but I feel like the investment to build the second one up would be big and take awhile to get the materials
one wound anbd rest corrupted. And atm the game counts it completed even if you die, so long as you and your team have are alive for 10 minutes or less and you are at least at 1 wound for 75% of that time. So for instance if you get to 1 wound, stay alive for 7 minutes and then die, it counts
So wait till 350 comes up? That sounds like a better idea
But until devs release full crafting, I really wouldnt hang your hat on the randomized perks/stats. Unless you've got 4 leaf clovers sprouting from your ears.
Tru tru
Ogryns:
Ripper Gun or Heavy Stubber?
What Im hoping when I turn my bolter gold tbh
What stats should I look for in a lasgun then? Headhunter? Ghost?
Simply a recommendation were I in your shoes. They are your mats 🙂
i think it depends on what you want
It has rending 3 so now I guess I'll hope to get weak point damage
For now, if you really want Ghost, I'd get the Blue. When Full Crafting drops, you can then pull Ghost off of it and put it onto a Blue you make.
i don't think ghost too must but I think a lasgun could make it good if you think you can
I don't really know What stats I want from the lasgun, Just been running uncommons till now
This is far from perfect. But maybe worth some discuss and ideas
Nade is best butttt the dakka on stubber
Stubber is fun
i have to try the rumbler at some point, been sticking to the stubber and gauntlets too much
Stability and Damage are good to start with
stubber is really fun, and IZ like it more as both a single target and horde option
There was a guy swearing by Infernus on the forums a day or so ago.
infernus looks interesting, but i've never seen seen a gun with it
crit hit kind of feels specific though, so I imagine mainly just for specials
Having been on a team with Heavy Stubber Ogryn, it's saved my ass a couple times through its massive suppression and ammo.
Then, when the Ogryn had to reload, I'd quelled all my Peril and fired a fully charged Voidstrike projectile through what was left of the Special Horde to finish it off.
I got a recon with infernus but it's really meh
gauntlets is nice since it works with the bleed on heavy attack ability, they're more accurate at range than the other guns once you get a feel for it, and the special hit actually does nice damage
I've finished 2 missions and not a single progress in contracts, wtf
though maybe i've gotten ones with lower stats, but I feel like the splash doesn't really kill stuff as much as the direct hits
I ripped my ass off for those scriptures
the splash on the gauntlets did do good stagger though, much better than the kickback
infernus is great against bulwarks and monstrosities on a higher firerate weapon but on an XII its pretty worthless
splash has 3 dmg, check in meat grinder
Quick question: What do people mean when they say stuff like "T3 or T4 Helmets" and so on? I've been playing for the past few days and trying to get my Guardsman all proper so understanding terminology would help
man the kickback feels so bad. It's nice when you can get a stagger but the spread seems way too big to kill anything, and the reload feels like death
I prefer the Stubber but my play style is very much a slow push forward, and the Stubber allows for that play style to have a lot more sustainability
T3 and t4 helmets are the helmets you get for completing all modes on a particular difficulty
There are different tiers of helmets based on achievements in game.
The Helmet Penances are a Chain. So you get "better" helmets as you go along.
So t3 is malice 4 is heresy
t3 helmets may refer to the helmet with red bandana facemask and t4 helmets may refer to the helmet with gas mask.
With the ripper you can do that like twice
So I have to complete every mode on Malice or Heresy and it'll grant me a helmet?
Interesting fact: The helmet with mouth visor distorts the vet's voice lines.
with additional requirements
It'll be under your penance tab. It'll show you the way
Damnation

T5 is damn why are there still lvl 10s here
Right now all I've seen under Penance is the Sharpshooter helmet at the end of the the class tree
I need to do espionage on malice to earn that t3 helmet.
Does the armory stop around 400ish power level? Are we upgrading from there basically?
Look under 'On Target' penance
seems that way
We've yet to know
Final question, is there a T1 helmet? I'm assuming not since I've played all the modes now on lvl 1
No t1
Did the blackouts get disabled already?
Yes.
am i missing something with the stubber? i know i got a cheapy grey but im only 10 and its high power level. it seems pretty underwhelming. feeling like it doesn't damage much and the reload takes forever
sadly
I cri
I didn't get to try them out 😦
blackout was much more fun than endless horde
Stubber is a horde weapon
Also there are other requirements like the nade throw or the no hit for t2 and 3
I've heard people are cheesing the Vet's no damage penance by disconnecting at the end of a run while the party waits for them to reconnect
It has enough ammo and fire power to cut down an entire horde before they get to you, you’re a living sentry nest
Doesn’t help that the stubber isn’t terribly accurate
You can use the camo perk and it works well
I got it that way by accident, I got dropped by a match and reconnected just in time to get it
Best map to do it on was the raid mission for me
I've not been able to get either of those yet. It's just too hard to get the distance for the nades or not get jumped by some rando cultist at the end of a mission
Some say that three Level 30s once had a player kicked, and the replacement was a level 10.
Consigned to their doom, the Level 30s went about dying for the Emperor, and at last they were going to. They'd completed the objective, but the hordes at the end had completely overwhelmed them...
Except one. The Level 10, in Prisoner Garb, no less, stood triumphant aboard the Valkyrie. Mission success.
:P
The stubber is actually kind of decently accurate, it’s not perfect but it’s good enough for what you’d want for something you treat like a minigun
does enemies can ruin the challenge maellus monstronum?
if the enemies hit the boss?
Aim about 90 degrees above the target and throw
Have you tried testing the grenades in the Psykhanium? If you throw them at a 45° angle they explode at head height
Don't hold the left click just tap for a half throw and lob
Explodes almost always above the head
I kind of wish it was faster to throw out nades, having to switch to them, pick the way you want to throw, and then actually throwing it makes it too slow to use in times I would want it
they need a special condition that does both. or allow the special conditions to double up.
That would be fun, I'd love pitch black with extra hordes*.
It’s too clunky to throw a nade at your feet before a horde bits or to use mid horde
I recommend meat grinder helps practice the nades for the achievement
Let's you get the distance and for maps the bridge or the end of the foundry map
So, infernus is gonna get nerfed right? I just deleted an assassination target with it.
Is the burn better than soul burn then?
I hope not, it's great vs bosses but I feel like it can be a well balanced addition to our kit without nerfing it
i gotta say, i wish we had the possibility for all maps and modes to show up. only having a couple maps with a few modes available for days makes it boring, but the game wants us to grind tons of runs
burn is the best DoT
How can it be well balanced? It just takes bosses out of the game.
so i am leveling my zealot and is level10 now. trying to get that mutant penance. what weapon would be ideal? i heard chainsword but doesnt seem to count with its altfire
and at other times i just get grabbed by the charging mutant.
should i just wait until i have some insano strength weapon like the hammer for this?
pistol
I didn't do it on purpose but that did happen to me due to the game crashing, I don't really feel bad about it either tho tbh
I've not had much luck with it vs hordes, especially on higher difficulties and scarcer ammo. Same with trying to take out ranged enemies, something vets should excel at
I got it with thunder hammer but maybe a evic at level 11
aight. il level a bit and get evic and try then
probably weaken a bit first with some shots
I wonder how they're gonna tweak alot of these weapons people say are OP cause while I get how they're OP, I'm also not sure how to nerf them in a manner in which they will remain viable within their niche
maybe they just need to buff other weapons
power sword just needs less than infinite cleave
Problem is nerfing something like the bolter just feels wrong
I think they could adjust the charge time or moveset so it still cleaves but isn't easy horizontal strikes only
And lvl6 is BTFO
chainsword needs better damage
The psyker penance's are so stupid and rng, they reward you for greifing your grp..? 🤨
Bolter has its issues. Shouldn’t be nerfed
Using it as an example
yeah maybe
The animations suck
yup its the same with vets 100% accuracy penance too
It does massive damage - it's only failing is: it cant stagger a shielded-Bulwark
Did you activate the special?
tbh the bolter, even if it stayed as slow as it were, would feel a lot better if it did not need to be constantly re-racked and instead it was just sort of hefting the gun back up
But bolter is actually busted, like even with its issues it probably the best vet weapon
same with zealot only using melee achi.
Does every mission give the same amount of crafting materials?
Care to do it yourself 
Yay or nay?
Worth keeping to upgrade?
Yay but gets hot is meh imo
Idk man plasma crits hit different
well the only good roll on that is carapace damage
Its fine for things to be OP in a co-op game, but it feels bad to feel like you're handicapping yourself by playing anything other than the clearly strongest choice. Power Sword is in a state now where its strong, but doesn't invalidate the game's difficulty. I'd like to see other options be similarly powerful.
nah
4% feels low for a prefix imo
yeah 4% is irrelevant
power sword is also a lot worse if you get totally surrounnded while alone
yeah you wouldn't think a 100% accuracy thing would be so luck based but you never know when something is about to hit you in the back and throw off your shot, even with the woosh if you gotta dodge it may be too late, trigger already pulled, and that's not even getting into killstealing teammates, so you're incentivized to take only the safest, point blankest shots into hordes, and be very stingy with how you shoot, to the detriment of all of your teammates since you're supposed to be playing the shooty class but now you're doing melee, and even if the power sword makes you near zealot in combat effectiveness in melee, you're not as sustainable in that fight, you're not getting your health back, if you go down you're going down, etc.
its a joke unless powered
Had it been like 12 it would be great
It stacks
if you can make space to charge it its insane
Isn't the most important thing the stat allocation and that one got amazing stat allocation into damage. I can reroll the blessings and perks on release
Thought not, thanks
but if you get mobbed without time to charge, its useless
pretty much
Things being too OP can take the fun out of playing, and it’s nice to have options and specializ
That too. I think lowering increasing its charge up time would make it more team oriented. I can still solo hordes with it with some tricky dodging for charges
Only problem is I hate the plasma gun on vet, I think it gimps what you're supposed to do
it's not totally useless without time to charge, it's just very meh, I would compare it to maybe a devil's claw while uncharged but maybe I have a poor opinion of the devil's claw
Curious if anyone actually uses the las pistol/autopistol past level 10 or so.
way worse than a claw, really bad damage
it is an oddly close range weapon to be honest, wonder how the melta is gonna look
I think the las pistol sucks, but the auto pistol is actually fun
I saw a lvl 30 vet on heresy with a laspistol and he carried our team
Auto pistol on vet is really fun
melta is gonna be short range also right? so same problems the plasma gun has on vet
mobs are lowlevel; you should sweep theough most of them (cos it's fast-spamming)
Thunderhammers and Chain Axes are slow, but sweep-tactics.
if you're being mobbed by Elites, then you're S.O.L.
The commissar cain in me really wants to use the chainsword + laspistol lol
i have a really nice burn stack laspistol which performs pretty well, the issue is that because its a pistol it has massive damage dropoff over range so you end up needing 3-4 headshots to kill a regular ranged enemy from a distance
I don’t see a reason to use a las pistol over a las gun
aye question
Does anyone else experience problem where changing keybind in settings aint doing its thing?
yeah but I mean like, plasma is supposed to be lasgun range in tabletop, melta is the short ranged weapon, so I wonder how much melta gonna degrade in range
fair. my personal take is that weapons should feel fun to use. i like the regular knife a lot. not that its too great though. but feels fun darting around the level with charged attacks and instakilling regular enemies i encounter along the way 😄 makes me faster than normal running
I tried to rebind jump but its not changing it even tho it shows change
would combining it with sniper help? though I guess that would only be an option for vet...
it helps somewhat but 20% damage doesnt make up for the dropoff unfortunately
20% on 3-4 shots is still 3-4 shots
Is it just me are all Hersey missions endless even though they say they aren't
you can only sweep a couple uncharged
Just queued up for the smelter and it was endless for some reason
i just had a sedition level mission where all enemies had armor
felt kinda weird
like. full soldier level armor
has anyone seen the modes Espionage and Investigate at all today?
chainswords are good with dodges and kiting
Chainaxes and Thunderhammers are similar, but you need to time the swing a bit (else you get hit)
worth replacing my 276 with 320 one?
Yes
do i have to keep buying gear to upgrade the gearscore of items i get in the shop? Or can i keep playing without having to do that
But man the bars hurt my eyes
Yeah bad bar rolls on those
Anyone?
i did espionage i think
They will pop up later
Sweeps are still low-level crowd control.
If you want to kill a mauler/crusher/bulwark, you charge+quickshot
(test it/practice in the psycharnium/meatgrinder)
what was investigate again?
The scanner missions
Those aren't necessarily bad dmg rolls since he's low level. both guns suck but lower rating one will deal more damage
are they in the game again tho? I haven't seen either espionage or investigate since 6pm yesterday
havent seen that one today
You pull out the aliens scanner and scan clothing and trashcans
@uncut tangle whoops I replied to the wrong person this was meant for you
after power outage went away I no longer saw anymore investigates or espionages
I kind of feel the same about the bolter, although never useless it's not very good at doing what vet should be doing imo (clearing all ranged threats as efficiently as possible)
Joins Heresy lobby
Sees level 15

I think the got rotated out for desert map
nah 6pm yesterday they were ALL in rotation
all 7 modes
I played all 7 yesterday looking for daemonhosts
I did espionage but I don't recall doing investigation in the last few days
But I try to avoid it anyways
That is the penance I am trying to do
the only vet weapon with less ammo than the plasma gun is the revolver and that's a pocket sniper so it makes sense, the plasma gun should do more damage for how much of a clear special deleter it is
You are probably missing one of the 2 missions I am missing.
Espionage or Investigate as they keep getting removed
damn Stats page should tell you what you've done/missing.
the issue is most people play on difficulty 3 where its less of an issue but as soon as you hit difficulty 4 the bolter no longer functions as a ranged enemy clearer due to the number of them and how slow the gun is
Oh I know what I'm missing
you can viably use just about anything on difficulty 3
Malice Espionage and Malice Investigate
I'm only missing investigation for the gasmask
They just keep getting removed
But I absolutely hate the mission so never even attempted it on heresy
Is there any way to check? It isnt my first high level character so I just dont know
Is this accatran worth upgrading?
I got "6/7" but can't remember if it's Espionage or Investigate(it's the only two I haven't re-done today)
is faith restored + bloodletting good?
recon lasgun is my favorite 
Everyone is saying infernus is good so yes
I feel like im suboptimal as zealot
I think it looks good I mean the bars are good and the first perk is burn damage
I currently have purity in blood running
Are there different recon lasguns? The one I used seemed OK, but not great
infernus deletes assassination targets
That's not the crazy strong version, it's still very good though
Infernus is crazy good so I'd keep it. yeah.
It's my favorite version
I like that accatran the most
which Mk is?
There's mk II and Mk VIIa and VIId
ammo is bad and damage to carapace is redundant so its not a great investment so it depends on if you want to spend a ton on it, infernus is good though
Do I run purity in blood or faith restored
The one with torrent instead of rapid fire
never seen the Infernus .. best sniper I saw was hellbore.
VIId has high rof but less pen and damge
Accatron Recons come in Marks II, IV, and VII iirc. Each successive mark deals more damage at cost of ammo pool + RoF (afaik)
It doesn't matter, with vet perks you get crazy high crit chance while aiming down sights and apply a huge amount of burn stacks
The only thing that matters is the burn stacks with that particular strategy
anyone have any cheese to get the pick n mix penance? been trying for hours with and without premades, no luck
wait. if infernus does the damage wouldnt the markll be doing the best due to high ammo cap?
It has the lowest rof I believe
are you lvl 30?
hmm.
the mk2 is the middle ground of damage and RoF
whats infernus? how do you know what has it?
D is high firerate, A is the low firerate
Oh my bad then
yep
what first perk do you use as vet with the accatran? Was thinking weakspot
That could explain my dislike of infernus then
