It's just a regular flamer, heavy would be insane
can we get a heavy flamer for ogryn pls
Most broken weapon we could get
Fair enough hold the extra blessed napalm
multimeltas exist lol
I’m not sure how they would balance a heavy flamer. Same way as the Bolter, I suppose? Make it super slow and limited ammo?
Hey we already have the veteran outperforming us in melee, we don't need the ogryn outperforming our flamer :v
They in darktide?
balances will come in no doubt
not yet, but eventually, hopefully. The more weapons the better :D
And I'd say lascannon is better or assault cannon
I know meltas are supposed to be in
I hope the melta is a zealot weapon
I'm just hopeful to see a ranged ogryn subclass one day, the heavy weapons guy
or rather heavier weapons guy
But how would they actually fire
I'm rather hoping for 2H power sword, I assume melta would be vet
And what use would they have tbh
They mentioned three classes per archetype before beta, so I'll go out on a limb and say one of the three Ogryn ones will specialise more on range
There are ranged specialist ogryn
Like space marine shotty , dow close range anti tank?
lascannons, autocannons, grav cannons, other real heavy shit
which will probably take 30 seconds to reload...
If you mount it on a tank, you can probably mount it on an ogryn
Ogryn is not getting any of that in a million years
Best weapons for ogryn im currently lvl 8 atm (I heard a shield is good but I need help)
They would break it before even firing a shot
@uncut tangle probably like space marine with armor melting capabilities. That's the closest to the way its described in lore
Shield is good for defense and crowd control. Just the way I like it 🙂
true, but darktide ogryns are literally einsteins
Grenade gauntlet, stubber and shield and club
how else would we be able to send 4 ogryns into a mission with little to no supervision?!
I know we are bone da heads
Ogryns can operate data interrogators for God's sake
when do you get a shield
yes
But I still wouldn't trust a ogryn with a lasgun
with their massive fingers
how difficult that must be, huh?
They are super geniuses
I believe
Aw 3 more lvls to go
anyone know what the special action on the dueling saber for psyker does? I tried it on enemies, stabbing specials in the back seems like its just a regular light attack on a special button.
wait if I get a shield do I only get 1 choice of melee or can I pick others
oh also plasma cannon sounds like an option, at least
one choice, its the maul that comes with it
Ah I see, im currently using some auto shotgun thing is that good
Generally, if a melee weapon has a special attack it’s a very high stagger interrupt
guys should i buy the knife? is it good?
Power level’s a bit on the low end, but it is good
looks pretty darn good
Up to you I’d say
Stats are very evenly distributed
low end at nearly 450?
The cap seems to be roughly 500
yea, they go above 500 lol
Personally not a fan but I don't know the best perks on dagfer
Lacerate is ridiculous
I dunno how strong bleed is, but if it's at least somewhat strong this seems like a fun roll
Buy grays at 350 and upgrade
haymaker + lacerate if you want to abuse bugs
anyone who succeed in "friends will be friends" penance for ogryn ? i need some infos
If I ever got more than 2 on offer I’d consider it 🙃
Thought they patched the dagger no?
get better friends for that penance
Mentioned in the patch notes at least
Can anyone tell me how do i get this credit type, for I need it to upgrade weapons (the purple one)
nah haymaker + lacerate can still oneshot entire hordes of elites with stun nade + heavy attack
Blue glowing boxes on maps
Blue boxes are on Malice and above i believe
higher difficulty missions I think give quite a bit? (3+)
Decisions, decisions...
rarer then plasteel
uprising* and above
and it's Diamantine
damn I can only do uprising difficulty
On tier 2 as well I believe
oh cool
yeah, tier 2 also has them, just so few it's not even funny
They’re significantly more common on Malice than Uprising, but they are there
any group doing consistant heresy runs?
malice+ seems decent in terms of gains
Absolutely no point to not having it on one then really
no point, Damnation is easier because of EH bug
Yea I get about 30-50 per match on malice
EH bug?
But that's probably luck
Endless Horde
Yea every tier 4 are endless for some reason
Heresy always has EH active no matter what, so Damnation is far easier because of less Specialists & Elites
ok, well, anybody doing damnation runs that i can tag along in? 30 vet
I'm still surprised that's not fixed
holy shit is this the reason why I didn't have a successful heresy run yet? I always did quickplay and never noticed
Was happening last night
Could use some opinions here if i would grind to get this today
anyone knows when the next lights out special condition will be?
Yea did a heresy run and it was normal but after that every game was endless for some reason
Disguting. Get it
bad stats and horrible blessings
Sunder seems useless?
Good for cleaving through unarmoured groups
it's difficult, for sure
Energized attacks already have seemingly infinite cleave
Perks are bad
they do
yeah i was thinking the same orange tho
I got a energized and it was weaker then slaughter and the other one
It could be great at launch tho
yeah, like there are were insane situations. Like fucking trappers running in squads from your back with dogs spawning ahead and shit
it was nuts
upgrade greys, better rolls and you can just exchange blessings with 1.0 crafting
remember you can remove perks and put new ones on soon to
I'm sure power sword will get nerfed
all the while you get massaged by hordes of normals
traits*
I just lag around and get carried now
hmm feeling like i'm going to skip it then
I'll tell you what I want a mk3 dagger that doesn't look like I tried to use it to destroy a metal wall
the main blessing you'll want on a power sword is the one that allows you to get more attacks off before it powers down
not in this economy 
unnecessary, the power-up is frame 1 and you can auto-cancel it with an attack, so there's 0 down-time, you want 2*power on hit
lets all disconnect at random times
Lets all disconnect rn.
The one I have now has rampage which works really well but slaughter is also supposed to be great
yeah was hopeing it would have that one when i saw it in the shop
cool i know what to do now, thank you lads. emperor protects
ive yet to experience a full cancel that doesnt interrupt blocking or pushing plus you can easily have the charge interrupted by an enemy hitting you
if you get hit, you gotta improve your dash-dancing and shoving game
So basically, skill issue
yep
With how broken power sword is yup
Is it infinite
Hello lads .
I wanted to ask has anybody made a report on how to animation cancel with the battle shotgun
Not exactly but 11 light chain attacks before power down
Doesn't work for heavy?
works
why would you heavy on psword
Neat how many heavy hits?
it's pretty redundant when it's powered up
i can easily kill several maulers and crushers with 1 charge, so its good enough
Which one of those should I take? Left seems to have a lower damage?
Gotta look out for one then
how do people do the flesh wound penance
By seething and coping until you manage

Go down and then survive for like 9:30 min
do i have to go down once?
Yes
Left has more stagger power and ammo, the right has more innate damage and mobility (movement and dodge)
do i need to lower my health first after the first down or is that it?
I just need crit and I wish it would show that.
oh okay
@north wolf dont take either lol, Look out for the same thing but on Torrent Recon Lasgun
Op AF
so it one shots on infinite cleave along with a perfectly horizontal swing
The mission donst check if u actually made it
so set a timer for 10 min, go down once, and survive the last 9 mins
Yes
ok thanks a lot!
I have a recon lasgun, but my infantry procs like 5 crits a mag, and my recon rpocs 0-1
Make sure ur friends help u up after beeing downed
Bots
Then last but not least make sure to not die till 9 min
is there a way to set the mission to private
Then kill ur squad
@north wolf its on weak spot hit, Hit heads man xD Boss fights on weakspot hit burn like hell
i need tips on psyker cliffhanger penance! i know about the spot in chasm and espionage but cant seem to get enuf mobs any tips?
I suggest that u get a 4 man squad
I'm assuming if the weapon doesnt state crit as a stat, it doesnt modify crit
Weakspot hits are not crits. They're separate. Weak spot hits do not proc infernus.
ah okay
Hmm i need to check if i have somethin else then
If u want can help u once I’m back from work
also one more thing, im guessing it doesnt count if the game is already started right
hm, is this an upgrade to what I have equipped?
yup, weakspot is usually the head, while crit is RNG
that would be greatly appreciated haha
What do u mean ?
The time starts at game start
if i joined a mission rather than starting one
It counts yes
U can complete the mission u joined under 10
It works
The game counts from u joining I belogt
Belive
anyone know what causes "Unable to perform operation" with Hadron?
are you consecrating a hammer?
yes
well, that explains it
im guessing this is known then
yup
bet
It will do less damage, but have significantly more bullets, a longer range (spread, I assume?), and more suppression. If that’s what you want out of your gun, it’s an upgrade. If you just want damage, it’s a downgrade
Range is how far before drop off happens
hard to say really which is better for the role
since it was mostly the damage i was concerned about
thamks
like, if it still does roughly enough then its fine but if it suddenly misses alot of breakpoints, its technically an ammo loss
You could just buy it and test
hah, youre right, thanks.
See how much of a difference the damage bar makes in the psykanium
That happened when I tried to upgrade my thunder hammer
Thought it was just the weapon type
Punishing Salvo bugged right now? Says it adds 15% weakpoint damage to 2nd/3rd hits of a salvo, but it only bumps my damage from 162 to 164 (3 shots)
Stability is the spread of the barrage and the recoil of the weapon
that's a 1.5% increase in the 2nd and 3rd shots
I honestly didn’t realize that there even was falloff
weirdly enough, some lasguns have reverse falloff
In every weapon I’ve tested, there hasn’t been any significant difference in damage over range
seems to functionally have little damage difference, but that might be due to it having a higher gear stat too.
I believe its damage fall off, rather than bullets reaching targets. For example I can still hit something with the kickback at range, but do little damage
In that case, the new one is def an upgrade I think
yes, power is part of damage calc
that explains it, thanks
I figured that that was just because the kickback is a pellet gun, and less pellets are hitting
I’ve heard tell of people shotgun-sniping snipers
Interestingly the stagger/knock down still works for the kickback at range even if the damage doesnt do much
I use it to nullify the odd sniper
I'm also expecting that to be removed post release (because its a bit crazy)
Also side note. would love more 'stopping power' ranged ogryn weapons.
So question considering that cosmetics have no effect gameplay wise, will we see different armor eventually for each class like elysians, moridains, pratorians, catachans, and kriegers?
There'll probably be different sub-classes, akin to VT2. I assume they'll also come with their own base aesthetic. That's why each class currently has two names - one's the base, the other is the specialization.
I think #theorycrafting would be the better place to ask, other than that, not unlikely for a donation of a few dollars.
What worries me is how long until we get sub classes
Does Martyrdom increase all damage or just melee damage? (and it's a flat amount yes?)
All me thinks
when they gonna fix error code 2007 and game crashes
Shotgun goes BRRR
Error 2001, 2004 and 2007 my old friends
I would be shocked if I didn't see them at least once per mission
You playing on a smart fridge or something?
I'm hoping they won't be aesthetically too different (maybe just 1 set of armour for a start) and thus could be implemented relatively quickly. I for one would take a new psyker with pretty much anything instead of Brain Burst. Same for most of his feats.

Bless you beaker
Hopefully that fixes it
@burnt pendant Psyker honestly has the most potential for easy sub classes
Abhumans are also potential for further expansion... like adding Ratlings.
I know the salamander psykers use fire exclusively
The amount of dialogue for ratlings is grating, if they aren't added I would be shocked
Ratlings are essentially reverse Ogryns
Also a pretty easy class to implement I would think
Make them all about camo and their skill is like the invisibility from v2
Well, biggest Problem with Ratlings is that they overlap with the Veteran quite a lot.
Could make them snipers exclusively but yes would overlap regardless
Or assassins
We don't really have an assassin class
If their past announcements are anything to go by, they will stick with the 4 main classes, and just add subclasses to those.
What role could fatshark add that wouldn’t overlap?
Ratlings are fragile and don't have a lot of strength (giving them the opposite of the Ogryn's Stagger passive)
Problem is this isnt fantasy where you can get wood elf, dark elf etc
So f.Ex. an Ogryn gunlubber or a useful psyker, and as the current veteran is a sharpshooter, maybe something that's more 'go in and go full auto'?
So you can only do so much with sub classes
hi guys, i can't seem to find 2 more mission modes. are espionage and investigation missions hard to come by?
Ogryn and psyker are cc, psyker and vet are ranged special/elite hunters, zealot and veteran are gunman hunters, zealot and ogryn are horde dps
is there a way to see which maps is on rotation?
No it's kinda like the deep rock galactic system but worse
oof
You can do enough. Psykers and Ogryns have sufficient options, and I'm sure they'll find a different variety of Astra Militarum soldier and religious nutjob.
An actual new class would require completely new armour, 6new voice packs, new pennances, etc. That's an enourmous amount of work for something that half the playerbase wouldn't even care for, with comparatively little effect on gameplay. Also, that'd be theorycrafting.
it's like DRG except imagine sometimes there are no mining missions. Or no egg missions. Or whatever missions drg have
It seems like each subclass has unique penances and likely armor regardless
Though the voicework and writing would be a major undertaking
Not just for the new class, but for everyone that has to have lines responding to them, too
Commissar could be cool for the preacher
Imagine you just execute your vet for sucking
Boosting dps of everyone else
Wouldn’t commissar be for vet?
nah commisar ogryn reportin for shootin, sah
Commissar would never should his beestest buddy
It's 40k so it could be both
They are religious so either or
I wouldn’t describe commissars as being Zealots (like obv they are zealous, it’s 40k, but not to that degree)
I was joking that the commissar would be the ogryn lol
Everyone is religious, it’s literally law
I think it varies from commissar to commissar
Like yarric isn't religious at all
He's also dead but it happens
That's heresy talk right there
my religion is littun's and rations
Unless you are with blueman
fellas which is better
oh lord
The perk on 2 is so good but stats
the left one
That's rough
right one doesnt really do as much cleave damage, targets so probably not that
I’d go with the right. My biggest struggle with the power sword is that it’s dodges are ass
Right just because cleave targets don't matter
+2 rending is juicy for flak and carapace
On power sword
bruh yes it does
Power sword has infinite cleave, why would you want more cleave targets
Rending is good but if energised hits then most flak targets die anyways, no?
does it have infinite cleave?
Yes
supposedly 'cleave' adds to damage somewhat to, although how much is anyones guess
that doesn't matter, Target-count affects damage calculations and the bar that increases "cleave targets" affects those calculations to an extent, and since mobility barely, if at all matters, especially due to powersliding, the left one will do more damage by default without blessings due to a. bars b. power c. crit chance
Blessings aren't that important in the long run since you'll be able to transfer them. Base stats are better so I'd go with the left one as it has more cleave damage, too
has anyone seen investigation or espionage in rotation recently?
about 24ish hours ago
sameish
Ah ok
guess they're out of the rotation then
left
So higher cleave targets effect the damage calculations good to know
significantly better
Yes apparently
Cleave damage is busted
yes, anything that increases: power, targets, damage, stagger or crit has an effect on damage
I still dislike the left perk
not to mention hitzones have a huge effect on damage, e.g. you only deal 35% of your damage if you don't hit the Beast of Nurgle's weakspot, despite weakspots usually increasing your damage over the regular 100% damage you do
is it a new bug where picking up anything forces a reload?
Which ranged weapon is being used at T5 for ogryn?
it just started today where picking up makes me reload
I suggest checking j_sat's content on YT for more info on damage calculations and hitzones, lots of information, but it's worth the time
gauntlet, by a long shot
Will do, couldn't find many guides so was waiting for launch
someone know how to do the "just a flesh wound"penance?
Teammate ogryn gauntlet was insane but stubber is still the most fun
We can change perks later on right
What about stats?
perks as in blessings? yea.
and stats as well, yea
best melee wep type for ogryn?
Experimental branch did not work rip
i use one of the cleavers with horizontal strikes
well, the regular way would be to learn how to powerslide and, if possible, look for 3 likeminded people, then doing a Heresy/Damnation assassination on transit hub since that's by far the shortest map in the game atm, the other way is to exploit, tho you can easily find that information
pretty rough
Will need to reroll alot
Could be worse.
Cries in Plasma gun
you're better off upgrading a grey from scratch, 423 is very low
Still works well on heresy but can't find many grays with better damage and stopping power
whats the highest lvl gray anybody has seen
Yes but store has been rough
same tho
Someone pleas explain this to me, significantly better DMG+PEN stats but 300 less damage. Does the 8% really make that much of a difference? (you'd think it actually meant 80% by the damage)
352 I think
You should atleast keep it for the later crafting options.
bugged, it's +80%, yw
Out of curiosity, what would be a decent rating?
I use it atm, wanted to switch to plasma but they are a joke
for a yellow/orange? about 485+, I'd say
I see
jfc, i assumed as much. what does yw mean?
you're welcome lol
but yea, any +% elite damage bonuses are bugged atm
ooh I like this weeklies 😛
1655 + 1000 for completion
Tbh so long as you get good rolls the rating isn't too important but obviously you want the 500 gold
On a side note what are good perks for the bolter
my blue bolter is 410 thats terrible
cavalcade + pinning fire or shattering impact + pinning fire
rating is eh though
Pinning is stagger on hit right
unless youre like level 20
what are the 7 mission types?
So I am playing on a rx 6700 xt and i5-13600kf with 32gb and a pcie 4.0 ssd on a z690 board. I am using 3440x1440p 21:9 as resolution and aspect ratio and get about 90-100fps with fsr 2.0 on quality/balanced but I drop fps to 60 or less, I mean sometimes I feel the drops. Any tips on how to reduce them?
one has additional damage against elites
like raid,
assasination,
repair,
strike
Think its this for me, Decent Base for a weapon.
do i save a blaze away or an overpressure flamethrower for later crafting?
Assassination, espionage, strike, raid, repair, disruption
Yes thank you, that really isn't a solid awnser though 
Investigation
But i already got my awnser
Both.
I have alot of gear ive kept just for the Traits on them
is chained hit just a multiple target hit?
are any of these worth getting?
I wanna say 360, but aparently 400 is theoretically possible
Both are nice
bolter is decent I'd say
reload isnt maxed but thats fine its pretty minor
Has anyone gotten a rending 4
This has probably been answered before, but Feats that are listed as something like "+7.0% Toughness Damage Reduction (Allies in Coherency)" mean that you (and not allies) get an additional 7% damage reduction while you have toughness, right?
Or does it mean that your toughness takes 7% less damage?
pinning is +power on stagger
Ah cheers
yeah good point, just picking out what to buy this hour
Can someone explain what the game means by 'chained hit' in terms of function please 🙂
succesful hits in a combo i believe
I believe that "chained hit" is when you do multiple attacks in a row (a combo)
so light attacks, or multiple heavy attacks?
could also refer to cleaved hits?
Thanks, looking into keeping that trait for slab shield
Inspect the weapon and it will show you how its chains work
Or, how that weapon's chains work
Thx
'heavy attacks ignore hit mass bonus' does that mean I could potentially stagger a big boy a long way?
how do I check which one I need for this, looked at the missions tab and it doesn't tell me what I ain't did on malice
Still not sure about this... trying to decide if I would rather take additional toughness damage reduction ("Benediction" feat) or something that might provide more value ("Inspiring Excoriation" for example)
I think at the moment you just kind a have to guess
Look for new ones
Ones that you don't recognize
^
damn time to roll the dice
Gurth I'ts probably espionage you ar emissing
whats the best staff for psyker?
same as me
might be, I rarely seen those
I think that's what that means
Oh boy 🙂
I also have this, is it worth getting the orange melk bolter or just upgrade this?
or is reload speed really such an important stat on it?
since it's kinda crap on this one lol
altho i'm a vet
so sustained fire does exist
I was just about to ask that lol I love the flame staff but the lightning has good cc but the void one has really good damage and range
Or perhaps something like... when I'm chaining swings with my thunder hammer, sometimes it stops on more armored guys
The fix for 2001 sadly does not work
I think maybe it would ignore in that case
Hope they actually fix it
I have a request to pick up 12 scriptures. Do i have to pick up them personally or just have my team bring it up to the end of the mission?
I#d prob get melk since it has nearly maxed reload, 320 isnt great rating wise on grey
but it aint bad
Team
would keep the grey to roll on it
That white plasma gun in your shop is making me angy.
Im still looking for a good base >:T
Just run 4 scripture missions and get them
thanks
Team mates count as well I was wondering this as well this morning
Could be that to, I'm just trying to find good traits to put on a slab shield once I find a good one. I play more for crowd control and defence 🙂
Is there someone I can ping about this?
Yeah, definitely mass then!
I think it would be useful regardless 🙂
Sending a big boy over the rails is my goal 🙂
Still waiting on the 'this is sparta' ogryn kick 🙂
I can stagger a bulwark or crusher with my charged thunder hammer, so I don't see why you couldn't haha
what gun with evis? flamer? for heresy with randoms
melted?
What is evis?
Melta is a type of gun yes.
Which feat is better for Zealot, 'Purify in Blood' ("Replenish 50% more Toughness on Melee Kill") or 'Enemies Within, Enemies Without' ("Replenish 5.0% Toughness per second while within 5 metres of 3 enemies")?
zealot 2 handed chain sword
I'm not sure how much toughness is restored on melee kill
Ah, thanks
I find that the flamer is powerful but (in my experience) not so good with randos
quickplay just chooses a random mission from the board you can see, at the desired difficulty?
Might wants something a little more viable for close- to mid-range combat
it fills you in to missions with bots/open spaces at the difficulty you select
Ayooo pog. now if only the block efficiency wasnt there.
Don't underestimate block!
Sometimes it's super useful to just stand and block for teammates
do you need wrath on power sword? it gets basically infinite cleave when powered up
How long does it stay powered?
It still adds damage through cleave to some degree
3 heavy swings
Having Wrath would allow you to get similar cleave without having to power or do heavy swings
87.5% cleave is pretty good
what does +1 wound(s) mean
It means you can take an additional wound (go down one more time) before you die
Pretty useful to have one
Ohh wait how many times can you go down before you die
depends on health blocks
I think 3 normally?
Generally
Most health bars are split into 3 or 4 blocks at first
Ahh okay
I got 4 atm I think
since im an ogryn
I do not think percentage health adds to blocks, just expands blocks also
Nice, yeah, that would give you an additional down. However, having an additional would on Ogryn is a bit less valuable since you already have more than the lil'uns
Always protec tha litt'uns
is any of these worth upgrading? I'm still puzzled by how this system works and what's "meta
- is it just my terrible luck or only one 400+ weapon popped up in my shop a.k.a. chances are extremely low?
i don’t think anyone fully understands the system yet so hard to recommend spending resources yet but the power sword is good enough to keep
until we do figure everything out
I agree with Local Man, I would hang onto all those until they do the update that gives transparent weapon information
(which... is that coming?)
supposedly sooon (tm)
they said weapons will have more in game info than just bars when it launches
when in doubt, keep the mats
for now dont upgrade anything that doesnt have max damage rolls (max possible roll right now is what the shotgun has) as a general rule
or something to that effect, but they didn’t say what exactly or when exactly
My shop tells me something
Every day you be shovellin
btw does anyone know from experience what are the guesstimate good treshholds for different color-tiers?
if only the damage didnt suck peanuts
Is using the plasma gun useless to my team?
because from what I've seen so far consecrating gives anywhere from 10 to 25 rating
Does it kill, then no? 🙂
If I saw correctly (through all the gunk on the screen) it can overpen enemies creating nice and tidy corridors in hordes
a.k.a. I love the gun
and serves as a great heat source
miss me eyebrows though, sah!
3 lights
should plasma-players go for giant scar on one side of the face to complete the look?
I love blowing my self up with it
...and horde with it!
sarge only shoot me cause he cares!
Oh yeah once it’s happening I rush into any enemy I can find
Im a zealot and wich weapon would be better for me can anyone help me ?
The one with Lacerate
on difficulty 4+ yeah its not great, on 3 feel free to use what you want and bask in the glory that is the plasma guns cool factor
And use the feat that gives you increased crit chance on bleed and the feat that give syou +75% toughness on crit
but why is it not great?
as a vet your main job is to keep the ranged enemies from shredding your frontline and taking out specials but difficulty 4+ just spawns so much nonsense that the plasma gun cant keep up
its the same issue with most guns on 4+ its less the guns themselves and more the nature of how the difficulty scales
oddly enough I just keep getting more multikills instead of not keeping up with spawnrates
well the problem becomes apparent when you end up running into groups of 20-30 ranged enemies that split up and form a firing line
then the plasma gun cant really do anything
this is what I dream of at night atm
lul
worst nightmare ive ever had
yeah its pretty awful sometimes, especially when its at longer range and they just aimbot you
like I love the game's feel but GODDAMN those ranged guys
from my experience - only in this case plasma is significantly weaker than bolter but otherwise I'll pick plasma (maybe it's just me)
I would look better
what graphics option do i have to fiddle with for textures to load in faster? im annoyed by my shield being blurry and then slowly getting a good resolution everytime i equip it.
i mean i cant argue with how cool the gun is so i dont blame you
hey guys, are the twitch reward skins in-game yet?
while playing with friends I was able to get rid of elites faster with plasma than with bolter
yes
i swear i claimed the ogryn one and i cant find it
L
wat are the best perks for vet weapons? wat should i look out for?
Not sure, you might just try turning down your graphics settings until it doesn't do that anymore
yeah, guess so, thanks
It's really poorly optimized right now
yeah one shot as opposed to 2-3 but the bolter has far better ammo efficiency
plasma sucks , bolter rocks
I have had way more success with the bolter than the plasma
imo the bolter is straight up better than plasma
Most are good, depends a little on the weapon. Everyone sharing vision on your ult is the best pick. Low difficulty 8m heal is fine for first perk.
Is anyone in here able to lend a hand with the Long Bomb penance? It's all I need for Veteran and I'm really struggling
that punchthrough tho...
Please?
Is there a way to know if you get like emperor rewards after a mission or is it totaly random ?
What level is a good idea to start queuing malice?
whenever there’s a long hallway with a horde charging at you toss your grenade 45-50 degrees in the air and pray
there’s not much more to it than that
end of the smelter mission and the bridge midway through the train station assassination mission i think are good candidates
the issue is that I keep doing this and it never gets kills
10+ ideally
what diff are you trying it on
1 and 2
are you seeing it explode in the air?
I get to these points and my team just end up abandoning me
yes
grab accatran lasgun and shoot the nade mid-air
is there anywhere i can find a guide listing what the all the cryptic "stikedown" and various stuff actually does?
is that a thing you can do?
if you don't believe it can be shot to explode, go to psychanium, throw it vertically and then shoot it
I didn't say I don't believe you, I was just saying that I didn't know this was a thing
it was for possible sceptics, not you 😛 I know you didn't say anything like that
nvm, just checked pinned
almost done every single penance for sharpshooter just need to do a few more games and will have the last helmet
all I need is long bomb and I'll have it
I'm crying at 0 melee damage. Those random no step sound queues are killing me
I wonder if opening salvo works on a semi-auto?
3% at max heat, or Per 1% of heat?
is warp battery still not completable on malice?
Is anyone able assist me with malleus monstonum by any chance, would be greatly appreciated
Nope
okok thanks, then ill do heresy 😄
3% total on 99% heat, it should be. Which sounds abysmal. The psyker staves have something similar, based on peril, but that stacks 5 times. I have no idea how it stacks.
damn thats awful,
Thanks for saving my money
Always a pleasure. 😛
What do you guys think about the fire staff for Psykers? I'm not sure how good it is after some testing in the meatgrinder
is there a cap on item power lvl?
Anyone got tip for doing Going Bowling?
Why is that desert mission twice as hard as any other map??
I love the fire staff. The meatgrinder doesn't show off its full potential
@lost shard What do you mean?
I did not shoot a shot on malice but didint get the penance?
Less straight up damage than voidstrike, but much wider cc. The burn damage stacks up and it's good horde clear. If you enjoy it, it's totally viable, particularly if you are running soulblaze perks.
Is mistery box worth it?
@peak valve It's a horde clearing beast and the flame staggers enemies. It works really well in conjunction with the feat that has a 10% chance to give you a warp charge on hit.
Almost never.
@peak valve Also, the soulblaze effect works extremely well to tell which enemies are dead and which are just kocked on the ground but still alive
No, I always get greys
I thinks its good, but for a weird reason.
Im colorblind, and its super hard to see enemies sometimes since the color of their armor and the shadows makes them invisble pretty much
But, if they are glowing white, much easier.
bruh, there is one more mission not showing up, i swear i got itnto a map i never finished, i see Vets with that helment im trying to get
which helmet?
is chainsword ok on psyker?
for the achievement
On Target?
@sage glacier I prefer the force sword. The special attack is more powerful than chain sword in most situations. Of course you might like the chainsword if you tend to struggle with armored enemies.
im not on right now, its at the bottom on Vet's class achievements
i think they have one mission type that cycles daily
Force sword with deflect blessing chefs kiss
for me it disruption
Yeah there is one Mission that spawns just every few hours or days its the disturbance mission
ya, why?!
ah there ya go
i hope mission selector will be a thing on the 30th
They take some out of rotation if there is an issue with it also
IDK i played and waited for this mission to spaw for the whole day i think
it would be better for the Achievement to say which mission is missing instead of 6/7
That I can get behind
100%
Anyone managed to get the penance where you kill the mutant while charging
Do I have to be charging or the mutant have to be charging
Because I’ve done it both ways and still haven’t gotten it
id just entered a mission otherwise id check
I still need the damn penance to kill 20 enemies within 2 seconds by knocking them off a ledge on my Psyker so I can get that sweet sweet hood. Why are the psyker penances so much more tedious than all the other classes?
Both you and the mutant have to be charging and you need your melee to kill during (not after) your charge.
Special action your thunder hammer, hold a heavy, charge at a charging mutant and release early so your swing makes contact.
Both of us charging damn alright that’s gonna be a bitch competing with the damn witches popping heads left and right even if you say in chat pls don’t
Because you smell of heresy! (honestly some masochist designed them)
Don’t have the thunder hammer yet. Rocking the evicerator
Anyone got a word of advice on getting on overwatch
Charged thunder hammer can 1 shot the mutant up to Malice when I tested it.
Guess I’m waiting on thunder hammer
0 melee damage on sharpshooter is as tedious my brother
So you don't need too much prep and a lot of luck that it's targeting someone else and you have enough time/space to charge.
I'd wait for level 30 so you can hold onto one charge all the time.
Last time I went for it I released and it should have connected but it caught me out of my charge
Then threw me off the map
I damn near snapped my keyboard
It's very tough to swing early enough that your weapons hitbox kills the mutant before it grabs you.
You'll have to hope it's targeting someone else.
The inquisition does not supply replacement keyboards
Just use your servo skull, hope you can read imperial.
you have to repair and maintain them otherwise you will may die
Consecrating only adds new perks, it doesn't mess with stats?
The Cheeto dust improves response time I swear
Consecrates upgrades the quality which adds a new random perk and blessing if applicable.
my first yellow
Hi i have a question about the Mind over matter penance, i checked my mission types and I have compelted all 7 at least once ( investigation and espionage only once) but it still says 6/7, what am i missing?
I wouldnt mind that on my Ogryn
that looks great
Mission types, not maps.
stam regen too
You might have just not done an investigation or a disruption.
yum
whats disruption?
Skip[
right
It's in the "hourglass" map.
ive done disruption as well
The sandy outdoors map
+580 tho
but investigation and esp i've only done once
I only chose grim + script missions for extra rewards
There is no way to check what missions Ive done so far riht
achievements maybe
I'm waiting here with my ogryn tuxedo waiting for espionage to come back on
but no i dont think so
Any tips for finding scripture/grims? I know the grims glow green
will there be an option to trade Plasteel against diamant?
25 scriptures contract is free melkcoins
no idea
You say that but fuck the little bastards never appear I swear to god I scour the maps
Use a zealot w/ 2x charge. It'll feel better than falling behind while scouring every damn corner of the map.
If a mission says it has scriptures it should have them, somewhere 🙂
I haven’t even played other classes yet I’m just having fun with zealot cleaving through hoards of enemies and barely taking damage
this
but ranged mobs
i don’t think there’s ever more than one per drop down area
make me quiver
just look for the tiny boxes with paper in it 
YES
I have found 2 in one area multiple times
I am addicted to searching for diamond and scrap parts LOL
That's been my theory, one per segment upto each event.
My brother in omnisiah, that’s what the glorious bolter is for
hmmmm
maybe thats why i miss some sometimes
I have noticed it is rare, but I have found 2 quite close to each other several times
I did see to grims back to back once
On the outdoor map earlier today, found 2 literally within 10m of each other
It's certainly possible without looking under the hood of game.
Like opposite side of the same room
do you guys play in groups or solo
they can even be right at the beginning and behind trashcans or inside dead corpses
quickplay
Best bet is next time you find one, stop and listen to the sound it makes. Then listen for that and you'll find a lot more
I made my friends get the game after I streamed it in discord for them
I hate looking around for a scripture and it's at the trash can just before the elevator.
Like thanks you bums.
Generally people will enjoy the gameplay and get sucked in by the WH40kisms.
I hate when your mission is going completely sideways and in the middle of you fighting for your life someone picks up the grim
Yo, laspistol is so nice lol, no recoil at all, like the lasgun should always been
Bro wait until the fight is over
Heresy is a callin
Is this not on for the day? Yet to see it pop on the map 
I'm annoyed zealot doesn't get recon lasgun. Like it's a good short range weapon.
The meatgrinder only unlocking enemies with levels is beyond stupid.
best is assassination mission on sewer map. Some asshat picks up the grim behind the ascender just before you push the button 
Every time
Honestly, playing a lot of grim runs in VT/VT2 gets you comfortable with relying on your defenses (block/pushing/dodging).
shredder pistol is king lol
As a zealot it doesn’t bother me too much because I can stay alive usually but it’s my team that’s the issue
Recon lasgun goes pew pew pew.
shredder autopistol actually has collatoral. Much better imo
The smol spread of recon makes for excellent headshotting from the hip.
When the lights out is coming back? I need to kill that "witch"
Bolter go BRRRR until you run out in 6 seconds
Did they just remove the witch
6 seconds?
I want a zealot-only bolter pistol, for style.
Thought she was on every nap now?
you mean 2.5? lol
Map*
What's the maximum weapon power score?
I still love it tho bolter absolutely melts heavies and bosses
The witch is on lights out condition maps.
I haven't seen it since yesterday afternoon
how many dodges do we have untill we get the "bad dodges" and how long untill we get the good ones back?
I haven’t even seen a lights out map
500 I think
She was also on the desert map with endless
It was around yesterday. Check the global conditions for the next change over.
Do you know highest number by quality?
the thunder gammer is go-
I reroll these missions to either kill X mobs, monstrosities, scriptures/grims or mission completions.
could be 600 with crafting maybe?
I definitely saw the witch in the torrent lights out.
I'm not sure if there are restrictions like that. I've seen blue gear at 400+ so idk
you can get more than 500
o rlly? I must be hella unlucky then
The point of my questions is I want to know what to upgrade
speculation right now is that highest base is a 400 grey item and then with max value traits and blessings you can get a 560 orange
i haven’t seen anything higher than a ~360 grey
Did that now.. It gave me pick up 12 Scriptures and 15 mission completes
what makes that the estimate? Has someone made a vid or article on it showing it?
My blues at that level haha no they are 400 on average
thats better than the do six side quests on this random map that doesnt spawn
anyone know how corruption resist works? the grims one is self explanatory but does the "normal" one affect grims or just other sources?
I love the 25 scripture missions and the 25 mission completion missions because they reward a ton of the limited shop currency
Yeah I agree, but I already had a 12 scripture one that I'm almost done with 🙃
Darktide crashed and won't start any more. lolwat.
i believe all sources. Like getting eaten by the big slime thing
it is based off the min and max amount of possible corruption. The game then subtracts the %
Check Task Manager for a process
maximum amount of rating you can add to a grey weapon is 160 from traits and blessings, people have higher than 350 grey weapons so speculation is that it would cap at 400 and not something random like 367
yes but does the non-grim one affect grims
basically pure speculation at this point but sort of an educated guess
makes sense.
I have 3 classes to 30 and barely see stuff above 400 lmao
So it's unknown yet if we will be able to get any weapon to max stats by crafting, itsn't it?
141 hours in the game atm and still have trash gear 
guys does anybody have the table about dodging? like when you stop doing good dodges and when you get it back?
So, the witch only spawn during light out and we dont know when light out is coming back, correct?
afaik there’s no announced way to modify the stats of a weapon
also got to take into account that some stats affect the same things with a cap of 100% with a potential of waste
no just full hp. i had some corruption from boomer dmg and got it
350 grey is high as hell. My greys are below 320
think i just grabbed one at 302
Nothing there.
Reboot steam, should work then
my highest grey is 358 but they usually drop in low 300s from the shop
There isn't a system that increases item minimum powel level by acquiring more gear like in VT2, right?
When will night maps come back? they are the best
Nope. Nothing.
Thats what im looking for, i would like to know me too
whenever people stop complaining about them
Patch today?
just do a full restart Urz
supposed to be
Swag
People shouldnt play night maps at low level then maybe people would stop complaining
^
I can start the .exe file and the game starts (but obviously can't log in), but starting trough steam shows me as in the game, then shows me as not playing anything again without a game opening.
does corruption resist affect grims too or is it only corruption resist (grims) that does it
quit out of steam then make sure the client bootstrapper in your task manager is also closed. Then start steam
There is a stat that is specifical grim corruption resist. So far I've found that it's not really worth it. I ran one once, and the slower corrupting buildup wasn't really notiecable.
I think it's also generally understood that picking grims up in general is not worth it right now.
yea grims kinda suck
since there are 2 different modifiers it is assumed 1 affects corruption applied from enemies, and the other from grims
any heresy threat level players looking to unlock the every shot count penance? I need a group
whoops, wrong place
i dont care if its "worth it" i need it for weeklies
Same issue, doesn't even start the launcher.
i assumed that too but thats not a definitive answer
Reroll those.
just do grim contracts on diff 2 or 3
nah mate good payout
idk not a big deal and they seem to be worth a decent chunk
has nobody properly tested this? cant find anything online either
How should i be playing the bleed resist damage ogre? I feel my heavies are too slow most of the time, or they just outright kill stuff so i don't get bleed anway. I've used the gauntlet to melee stuff, but that feels too cumbersome on high difficulty
i’ve got a 25 mission one so i figure i’ll have both scriptures and grims done well before then
I just rerolled until I got something like this, and that seemed good enough.
did you already verify game files?
tbh rerolled the no player death ones because low payout but yeah that’s basically what i got
I'm doing that now. I left it for last because it can easily take 15 minutes or so.
I don’t use the bolter because I think it’s better I use the bolter because it’s satisfying
bolter has its place but i think its better on *an anti-elite zealot, vets prolly better fill the role of killing lots of ranged enemies fast
I misread I am a zealot main
Bolter go brrrrt
I really wanna like the flamer but like it just feels like I’m using ammo for almost no effect
with the lasgun you are almost helpless against crushers but it’s very nice against everything else
Whereas bolter is instant gratification
flamer is great but makes you completely helpless at long range, where the bolter is still functional
How many rolls can we try on cintracts?
Yeah that’s the other reason I don’t like it
I find the flamer is instrumental in keeping the poxwalkers off your squad during big horde rushes. Helps a ton doing objectives to be able to hold an entire side/angle
The flamer is awesome for horde clear. Anytime your group is surrounded and under pressure it's clutch
thats what you got your zealots for
Not sure if there's a limit, but 1st one free then each next one costs more and more
cause we are completely helpless against massed spread out ranged
well
apparently you can’t reroll past the 7500 cost
so you get 3, maybe 4 tries?
Bolter eats crushers for breakfast and so does my eviscirator with armor damage
I've had 22,500 cost rerolls though
My flamer has the stagger modifier on it plus the zealot multihit feat for impact let's me stagger pretty much all elites and specials
yes, each can be rerolled 3 times which is why its a big gamble if the challenge wasnt really bad to begin with
eviscerators with high shredder statline FUCKS
must be an intermittent bug then
Dang I got fleeced :P
My friend got the game like an hour ago and he was so happy with me MELTING armored bullshit
eviscerator is the worst of the chain weapons for shredding, better get high damage+cleave and must have is savage sweep for +200% cleave on multihit
IMO the only really bad ones are "do 2ndary objectives on this specific mission"
anything with less than 250 payout id also call pretty bad, unless youre limited on playtime since not hitting all 5 of them is worse than 5 low payout challenges
Last week i was able tô reroll 3 or 4 times, its risky tô get stuck with a bad contract
I mean "no", but okay
what should i run as third ogryn perk? i like the idea of Lead the Charge, but Bullfighter just seems better
shredder is only for the special attack, even with a high stat youre gonna take 4 of em for a crusher (without zealot charge) while the axe only takes 2, so definitely "yes"
I've only ever needed 2 max, but aight
is exp even useful after getting to 30?
Hope to get Just a Flesh Wound for Zealot today. Anyone wanna help?
bullfighter is great, towering presence also good for pugging
go to the meatgrinder on heresy and tell me you two shot the crusher with eviscerator special without zealot charge lmao
pugging?
playing with randos
you sir are a straight up liar
just gonna tank and hope i dont die lmfao
Its when you kick a pug and see how far it goes
time to go nuts
Ogryn.. don't need littuns? commissar
i need em to take down that sniper 40 meters away
my double cannon aint doin SHIT at that range
Pickup Group; used commonly in WoW and other MMORPGs. Basically means a group that isn't formed by people you know; instead, it's formed up of random, possible noobs that will completely wreck whatever experience you are getting the group for.
hey thanks the other guy already defined it
i can just about do it in 2 fully charged heavy special attacks to the head with the axe, meanwhile eviscerator takes at least 5
No worries i just looked it up for the lulz
wow player slang
I had no idea it originated from wow
I first heard it playing halo 3 on xbl back in the day
Yeah i heard pubbing from LoL
Wait so there is a build calculator, does it have listed builds of other players? I would like to try and fix up my psyker build and hopeful do more in a team as psyker feels a bit behind when in my hands lol
not sure what youre talking about but to me most important was a way to keep stacks up, warp res scaling with stacks and a staff with good stats
I was wondering if peril presist was any good
I never really noticed when I took the talent and had some perks, but im also bad lol
I noticed that keeping stacks was useful a bit so I took the talents that gove 4% chance of gaining a stack on kill in coherency, as well as the feat that gives a 10% chance to brain burst enemies
Think this eviscartor rolled out ok? Or should i be trying to boost up a high level grey one?
Is there a specific build for psykers that out performs others on heresy+?
adding thoughness on multi hit would have been perfect
i adore savage sweep on eviscerator but apart from not having that its pretty neat
Is that the first talent tree for psyker?
flak and unyielding is great, rampage is great, bloodletter is meh unless you go for bleed crit build
So I should put that perk on my melee?
if you get the chance
Gotcha, thanks. Also on that note, are force swords good?
force sword attack chains might struggle a bit with hordes
but great for single target
Is soulblaze different from the staff flames?
soulblaze is basically warp dot
so from some feats and and flamethrower staff I think
Flamethrower staff is also soulblaze?
hi any psyker with helmet can tell me how to get it with only 5 mission types available?
I think so ye
yea i agree that 175% cleave is insane. I was hoping the bleed on hit could use the bloodletting skill
Has anyone noticed that poxbusters....u can shove them as they leap towards u and they will explode safety beyond the blast radius??....granted that non of ur teammates are shooting at it while it leaps
Hit level 30 and buy one. Otherwise you have to wait for the cycle to go back around. Its annoying 😤
so only way to get one is buy one?
Yes! People need to do that more😂
Right now without waiting a day or two yes
aha yea thats the trouble. I charge them as zealot to shove and the veteran just blows it up in my face
Somehow Fat shark doesn't tell us that. I found that out quite recently
sadly bleed last sooo friggin short you wont be able to stack it with just crits 90% of the time
aaah so missions cycle? (only playing sincee saturday)
Correct. I personally hate that system. I prefer the choice of difficulty and map on my terms so that I don’t have to wait like Vermintide did.
thanks mate !
Np!
You can't buy one unless you've unlocked it via penances. The only helmets in the shop are skins for helmets you already have 😦
im debating if i should invest in this weapon cause of the burn stack but how do i crit with this?
crits are random
i feel lasgun recon would suit better
yeah faster shooting lasguns work better for it
If you're looking to go for the super strong infernus builds floating around you'll need a recon lasgun, the Kantrael with burn is good but not stupid strong like a lot of videos show
ofc its random but i have skils and other perks that give me a solid %
I think out of the normal lasgun family this one is the worst to have it on since slowest firing
It's the high rate of fire on a recon lasgun with torrent that makes them so strong, you use the perk that gives +25% crit chance when aiming down sights and stack burn really quickly.
okay i was thinking kinda the same thank you been looking for a perk like this the last wef days... first time i got it
Best weapons for Ogryn?
If you find a decent grey recon lasgun you can upgrade it and hope for the infernus blessing! That gives more chances to find one.
any talks of shared inventory? need to know whether to refund or not
Best psyck staff for heresy and beyond
Lightning staff for crowd control is super useful
voidstrike for fun and lightning for meta
Lock down enemy ranged units as long as you can get close, and yeah void strike is a blast plus it clears hordes like nobody's business. It also does okay stagger to specials.
guys is the lvl 30 vet feat coutnerfire still bugged?
Yes
It was as of last night, yeah
preach ty
As a 100% "solo queue" zealot (no friends). Would it be better to rock flamer/shotty for extra short range power or grab something like laz rifle or bolter to not be useless vs snipers and such?
Bolter 100%
bolter
Probably the latter if you don't want to rely on others
thanks
Sure, sorry to be the bearer of bad news
Been loving the shotty/flamer gameplay but lately have been running in to situtation where a sniper out of my reach is 110% shutting me down and making me essentially a dead weight for a while
i took a RNG chance oof
Flamer is useless at long range and against minibosses, you become a liability to yourself for taking it when you dont have reliable teammates
no but anything else will stagger and then die slowly
Is there a guide to what enemies are named?
Everytime ive tried shooting a monstrosity with a flamer it just ignores it and hits me
Anything not out of reach gets pretty much wtfpwnd by the charge -> rev up big chainsword -> purge the heretic combo. Flamer is super good at CCing a horde or 5 at the same time
What counts as monster?
Sure it does damage but you cant just sit there
