[boreal pine]

so as far as i can tell they are definitely class-specific, im not sure if they are global per-class or entirely random per-player, per class

[cold moon]

The weapons are class-specific and random for each player. I checked my screenshot with BunnyBunnyRiven's in the case of Zealot. Totally different options.

Mine: #gameplay-help message

[boreal pine]

glorious cooperation

thank you

[near flax]

Has XP gain increased massively even on the lower difficulties or is it just me?

[exotic comet]

okay
what is base crit chance on weapons?

[drifting magnet]

I'm stuck at 6/7 mission types completed for the Zealot penance but I've completed multiple missions of each type. Am I bugged or am I missing something here?

[gritty copper]

is there a resource for highest and lowest a weapon rating in their tier can have?

[pliant willow]

Why does it take so long to load into a mission??

[ornate compass]

Probably cause you haven’t downloaded the game to an SSD.

[tepid skiff]

or into the hub, for that matter.

[ornate compass]

Anybody know what the cards with the Aquila on them means? I thought it meant the mission would reward an Emperor’s Gift but they’re not paying out.

[turbid dock]

Even with my 980 Evo it still takes like 10 seconds lmao

[pliant willow]

Nah everything on the pc is on an SSD. Probably related to the connection of other players

[red dock]

hmmm, specific map with secondary objective yay woo

[prime bridge]

How do kill a Daemonhost fast?

[burnt pendant]

Don't even try. It's a futile effort.

[versed trail]

Best way to "kill" a deamonhost is to have a Ogryn with a shield aggro it, and then have it camp in the corner using the shield's ability while everyone else shoots it

but i have yet to see a Deamonhost that can't be evaded

[prime bridge]

Here lies the problem, that takes a coordinated team

[versed trail]

I mean, the shield is arguably the best melee for Ogryn

[civic nest]

You can tank the daemonhost by dodging the first and fourth hit in the long combo, blocking the other two. You need good mobility stat and decent stamina.

[burnt pendant]

The whole point of the thing is to avoid it.
If a team of randoms could reliably off one, that wouldn't work.

[tepid skiff]

thunder hammer.

[civic nest]

mah man

[tepid skiff]

it's an answer to most problems in this game, to be honest.

[versed trail]

"Out of sight out of mind"

And then you get hit in the back by some grunt because everyone thought "Someone will take care of it"

[rich smelt]

When we will have more crafting options?

[green axle]

what does shattering impact do exactly?

[astral sedge]

does anyone know what the 'maniacs' group includes? like from the extra damage trait on some weapons

[proud kettle]

has anyone figured out how the currencies work in this game? Like what determines how many cubes or book cover looking things you gain from a mission?

Does it depend on the missions difficulty, or it's affixes, or the secondary targets? or all of the above?

or are they only found in the loot when on missions?

[tepid skiff]

you mean craft materials? steel and diamond? whatever you have picked up on a run, you get. nothing more. but it spawns much more diamond on higher difficulties.

[proud kettle]

yep, that's what i was thinking about
so is it known if they spawn more often on missions with secondary targets, such as grimoires?

to that matter, what are the rewards for fullfilling those (grims/scriptures) objectives? Just money and exp?

[tepid skiff]

never heard of such connection. only difficulty, to my knowledge.

[fair zephyr]

https://tenor.com/view/bonk-40k-warhammer-gif-21843493

[signal kite]

I also got 5 purple weapons from just emperor's reward.
i'm not too keen on them so I dont plan to use them
what should I do? just scrap them or are they worth keeping for something?
https://imgur.com/a/o8mIKau
are any of them worth keeping/upgrading?
also, I heard I should just ignore any weapon/drops I'm getting rn. is that what I should be doing?

[proud kettle]

i assume the exact numbers on how they spawn rates are affected by the difficulty are not known either?

[tepid skiff]

only that, yes. well, and melk board progress, when applicable.

[tepid skiff]

not yet, likely.

you can expect about 100 steel and 10 diamond on d2, about 150 and 50 on d4.

thereabout.

[proud kettle]

aight, thanks for the help 🙂

[random zealot]

Why does this error occur after the end of the match?

After every match

[nimble grotto]

hello, are contracts broken atm?

[proud kettle]

any way to check your ping when in a match?

or the pings of your teammates, to that matter?

[tawdry knoll]

hows the progression? how much do you level up and upgrade weapons and is it just clicking on new mission and killing 1000 zombies and repeat or how story driven is the game?

[versed trail]

It's a sake for the gameplay game

You start out weak, playing low difficulties and with progression you unlock skills and better guns so you can play harder difficulties

[tawdry knoll]

does it get boring after a while?

[versed trail]

Depends on the person

[astral sedge]

at what point do y'all reckon you can slide into difficulty 4

[green cipher]

if you're doing 3 endless comfortably you can try it, 4 and 5's are bugged and even without endless they have endless active though

so be prepared for 2-3 monstrosities and massive waves of specials

[serene latch]

there is no story

it's skirmishes game

[gray geyser]

i guess someone skipped the cutscenes? xD

[serene latch]

Dude the cut scenes are shit, "AHA IDK WHO YOU ARE BUT, I HOPE YOU DO MORE STUFF"

[gray geyser]

hehehe

[serene latch]

"I CAN SEE YOU DOING STUFF, BUT I NEED YOU TO CONTINUE DOING STUFF"

"CONGRATS, YOU BEEN DOING LOTS OF STUFF< WELCOME TO THE FAMILY"

twilight has a better story than this

[gray geyser]

same facial expressions though

[serene latch]

VT had soem story and what not, a bit of plot. DT is just skirmishes that all kinda look the same

[rigid wasp]

Has anyone checked if killing demon hosts gives additional exp or dockets at the mission end screen?

[tepid skiff]

none of the boss kills, even mandatory ones, seem to affect anything.

[serene latch]

map conditions does

[rigid wasp]

So only mission modifiers give added rewards in the end now I wonder if less enemy condition gives a negative reward

[serene latch]

it doesn't, it gives more

[tepid skiff]

for some reason no, it's also positive.

[rigid wasp]

Lmao

[tepid skiff]

not quite sure what's the logic behind it.

[serene latch]

the logic is that the xp don't matter, and they let you have a sneak peek of higher levels

[zealous sapphire]

what counts as force weapon attacks?

all staffs?

or does the force sword count too

[green cipher]

force sword should count, can always meatgrinder to test it

[arctic cliff]

whats the drop rate on items from finishing missions?

[proper smelt]

I hope there's new cutscenes where they judt openly insult the player

[glossy patrol]

any way to get all the exp and dockets ive lost to crashes back?

[potent kite]

Hopefully this is the right place.

The last few days my games not been loading. After pressing continue I get stuck on a loading screen (23mins as of this message, yes I’m timing it)

Is it worth verifying game files, full reinstall, or maybe is there a background programme I need to check. Any help will be great thank you.

(I’m on PC)

[arctic cliff]

just verify game files before anything

[maiden quest]

Hi, some good soul who can help me with Malleus Monstronum challenge? It's the penance where the psyker has to solo kill a monstruosity with only brain burst on heresy difficulty or higher, that means the rest of the team has to just control the hordes and specials (if there are) while the psyker fights the boss alone

[wooden oak]

my contracts are still not progressing. very frustrating as i am 19 hr into the game and have none of the contract rewards!!!!

[limber harness]

can I play 'offline' or just disable match making? I want to comb the maps slowly for scrips

[limber harness]

I have a feeling that grims and scrips aren't properly spawning either, very frustrating

[tall moon]

Anyone know what exactly effects the stores power scores? I'm near 500 now, but the store barely goes over 400, at least for the last few days.

[silk pivot]

What exactly is the inquisitorial rosette you get for level 30?

[little coyote]

Weapon charm

[cobalt tartan]

Anyone know the maximum base power for Curios?

[silk pivot]

How do you equip it?

Aha found it

[ebon fjord]

oy ! someone know when we will have new map available ?

[tall lantern]

is the lacerate blessing broken ? it doesn't seem to trigger on my knife (bleed stack on non weakspot hit)

[fleet carbon]

I got the twitch drops, how can I get it in the game

[feral gust]

I feel like some weapons will never be 'endgame' viable. Force Sword for one.

[halcyon cradle]

where I can check base weapon crit chance?

[bright bobcat]

they should just show up eventually, but for some people they're bugged if you check the official forums

[faint field]

thoughts on this? upgraded this but idk if its a godroll or if I should upgrade another chainsword eventually

[tawdry knoll]

why not I saw aome stuff that looked like story

[bright bobcat]

base rating's only 326 so there's still room for improvement

but in practice that's just more of a min-maxing thing, I'd use it too

[serene latch]

"looked like"

[slender juniper]

best way to get this?
I've been trying to use a revolver on vet on lvl 1 to try and get easy headshots, but at the same time fukin hard

im bad at shooting

[serene latch]

once the horde is up and rushes you, hold the weapon at head level and just spray everyone

[tawdry knoll]

Empire, Prisoner, attack

[serene latch]

use torrent weapon

[slender juniper]

tried that, kept getting a single shot missing so i end up having to try again xD

ended up just going one enemy at a time now

[serene latch]

i'm pretty sure you can miss shots

just that you gotta kill the people using a headshot, and not bodyshot

[slender juniper]

seriously?

[serene latch]

don't quote me but probably

[slender juniper]

BRUH

xp

probs not

[serene latch]

you know the map with the lift

where you cross this bridge

[slender juniper]

since if so i should've gotten it already

ye i know

[serene latch]

and you wait for lift to go down

and then you got swarms rushing the bridge

like low hp creeps

spray them

[slender juniper]

hmm,. there guns with scopes? like proper zoomed in ones

njot the basic ones

[little coyote]

Headbursting psyker

[tawdry knoll]

@serene latch why is there #40k-lore-chat if theres no story

[serene latch]

because it's for the 40k universe, the game uses 40k theme, the game is actually VT thrown Warhammer skin on it and using 40k terms and what not

it's for the nerds and 40k hardcore fans

[tawdry knoll]

whats 40k lol

the year?

[serene latch]

Warhammer 40000

[tawdry knoll]

ik but what does it stand for

[serene latch]

i think the year

no idea tbh

warhammer 40k story is wide af, complex too

with factions and shit

it's just that the game barely tells it

the most "story-telling" you get is at the loading screen of the mission

[tawdry knoll]

lol

[fossil basin]

is darktide still buyable with pre-purchase bonus anywhere?

[toxic sparrow]

40.000 is the year yes, when all the story of the tabletop game really started

[severe spruce]

How to finish it if the devs have made a stupid system?

[abstract dagger]

not all mission types are available at all times, you just have to wait for them to rotate

[gritty copper]

anyone having this issue where if they start darktide with discord on discord will constantly keep restarting itself over and over? only way i can fix this is buy just closing darktide and the constant restart from discord will stop

[severe spruce]

I understand, but I can remember which missions have already been counted and which have not.

The vermintide system was better, you choose the mission and its difficulty.

[abstract dagger]

i totally agree

if you go to penances though, you can press missions

and it shows you which missions you have played because theres a "play 1/50 of x mission" penance

like for me, i have 4 characters but ive only played investigation once

[wheat reef]

Quick question about Flawless Execution: If I have a streak of 5 maps on malive, then drop down to a lower difficulty and get downed there, does it break my streak?

Is that even the right channel for it? 😄

[abstract dagger]

this definitely is the right channel for it, I would answer but im unsure

[wheat reef]

The overall display of penance progress is just very unintuitive at times, which is weird coming from the Okri Challenges in V2 which were handled way better in that regard

[versed trail]

When is roughly the right time to join difficulty 3 games? Or am I just overestimating them?
I'm level 15 with 3 out of the 4 classes and basically breeze through difficulty 2 (Which makes me believe that i'm not actually learning how to play the game there lol)

[proven escarp]

Thoughts on Heavy Stubber vs Grenade launcher for Ogryn? I didnt really like the ripper as i cant really pick apart specials/elites from range if needed. Also; is there a reason to save gold atm?

[lament ruin]

Anyone getting their weekly contract stuck? Got complete 15missions at 14/15 for a while?

[abstract dagger]

id say just try it out, 1 and 2 you can just hack and slash but 3 up you have to actually utilize push block and just blocking in general a lot

[versed trail]

Yeah i realised that. At times I literally just stand in the middle of a swarm bashing stuff with heavy attacks to get my toughness back on ogryn

[trim verge]

any tips on how to do the on overwatch penance for the veteran?

[shrewd pendant]

yes, what's the penance?

[trim verge]

complete a malice mission without taking any melee damage

i'm tearing my hair out trying lol

[shrewd pendant]

get a 4 man group in the lfg chat, complete the mission normally, at the end of the mission tell them to wait just outside the elevator/helicopter so the mission doesn't end, alt+f4, reconnect, finish mission

[abstract dagger]

to my knowledge, its bugged rn

[abstract dagger]

grenade launched is kinda boo boo imo, heavy stubbed is solid because it chews through the horde. if you want to kill, use the stubber. if you want to just blast and slow down the horde, use the launcher

[trim verge]

i did try reconnecting at the end of the last mission there but it never awarded me the penance. maybe i reconnected too close to the end?

[quick charm]

In theory could you not just die to ranged damage at the start of the mission and have people carry you as a 3 man

[shrewd pendant]

Has anyone found a good video explaining how to play the game in damnation, seems like everything is beginner tips. Thinking about just making one myself to start the discussion

[trim verge]

@quick charm i like the way you think haha

[quick charm]

Was thinking about trying to do that for a friend, I generally play vet quite alot in melee so hard not to get spooked by some random hit

[trim verge]

yeah i made it all the way to the end of oblivium last run then got ganked by 4 armoured ragers

sad times

[rigid wasp]

Am I doing something wrong?

[serene latch]

do lv4/5 missions

[shrewd pendant]

He's doing harder missions, that's why he has an abundance of cubes instead of batteries

[serene latch]

oh is it the other way around?

[rigid wasp]

I am I just end up with too much diamantine because I find better base rolls for my equipment so I gamble to get similar or better perks on those better rolls

[serene latch]

ah

[shrewd pendant]

If I spent the rest of my materials at the shop rate, i'd be over 1k cubes when my batteries hit 0

It happens. They did adjust the higher end drops a little bit but they still gotta fix the ratio. We shouldn't be getting 200/200 in damnation, it needs to be more like 300/150

[torpid moat]

Guys, for dealing with hordes, would y'all go with the left or the right one? 🤔

[crimson fable]

Left

[torpid moat]

Thought so too, that Cleave Targets is not very clear for me yet since it's harder to test!

[small locust]

Does someone have a modifierrating of 400+?

[crimson fable]

Go with the cursor on the stat, it will open a thing with more details on what it does

[drowsy harbor]

Had a question, and the other chats seem to be moving real fast. A simple one, just had an alternate reload animation occur that I cant seem to have it trigger again. Didn't know if that was a random chance or something

Character was fumbling around with the mag and couldn't get it in his gun lol

[torpid moat]

Thanks!

[torpid moat]

That's hilarious

[slim leaf]

I'm having to deal with an annoying bug and I cannot find a fix at all, anyone able to assist? It's a 2 part bug.

1. When I close the game, steam still thinks its running but theres no task to close. Trying to "Stop" just returns and infinite "Stopping". I have to force close steam

2. When rebooting steam and trying to run the game, sometimes nothing pops up. Usually force closing steam multiple times eventually gets the game to open but I'm either unlucky today and it's no longer working and I simply cannot get on.

Any help would be great

[torpid moat]

Open the task manager (CTRL-SHIFT-ESC) and see if DarkTide is running 🤔

[slim leaf]

its not

[torpid moat]

Not even on the Background processes hiding away?

[slim leaf]

ill double check but didnt see it

[torpid moat]

Usually you can just type the initials, like "DA" and if it's there you will find it, or make it sorted by name

Happened to me once before and it was just in the background processes list

[split obsidian]

are you running steam as admin?

especially if installed in program files

[slim leaf]

it is not there, and on admin, lemme check

wasnt sure if steam was running on admin before, but ran it as admin now and it opened the game, so that might be it

tyvm, hopefully that solved it long-term

[rugged solstice]

what's the best use for weekly tokens? Save for daily items or spend for random ones?

[digital zephyr]

the first time i played difficulty 4 i completed it, but the next 10 i just did we die at the begining of the map, was i lucky that i won the first time or am i unlucky that i lsoe so often?

[heavy frost]

For the first issue sometimes (most of the time for me..) when Darktide closes it thinks that it closed because it crashed, so it opens up a new process called CrashReporter.

Somtimes this CrashReporter then ironically crashes/fails to close properly and Steam interprets Darktide as still running because the associated reporter is still running.

*Anyways, closing the CrashReporter in task manager fixes that issue for me.

[vital violet]

what if i unlock all twitch drops and dont get them in game?

[patent sapphire]

4 and 5 are heavily team dependent

[limpid axle]

I have several weekly's 'stuck' for one character, including kill dregs with ranged, grimoirs and scriptures.

[split obsidian]

save for something good, imho.

unless you're a degenerate gambler

in which case, gatcha with the randoms

[unborn pilot]

is there a way to compare a curio in the store with anyone other than your lowest?

[raw sage]

Is there any reason why you'd wanna smack the daemonhost if it spawns

If you can just avoid and not fight it

[tired geyser]

sound like heresy to me

[split obsidian]

penance

[raw sage]

Aside from that?

[split obsidian]

No.

[raw sage]

Literally just played a game where 3 of us went around the daemonhost and the last guy (a vet of course) is like wait we still need to kill this

and then triggers it

as we walk into the next room full of mobs + horde spawn

🤦‍♂️ dumbest team wipe ever

[golden turret]

Is there some sort of logic to whether you get scabs or dregs?

[mighty sierra]

How do i add my friend from gamepass if i'm on steam?

[unborn pilot]

you don't

[keen idol]

when the game says certain weapon blessing increases power what is power just another word for dmg or?

[lime imp]

No crossplay till later

Weird that they did this whole fake mmo server bs just to make us wait lol

[unborn pilot]

any word on when the remaining weapons are coming out?

[mighty sierra]

rip

[lavish prairie]

Any news on when gamepass will be able to play with steam if ever?

[teal spear]

Is heresy still bugged with Hi-Intensity?

[tired crown]

Yeah, damnation is too.

[teal spear]

Not damnation, just checked.

[tired crown]

Oh, cool! I'm glad. Heresy was as of about 9 hours ago when I played last.

[teal spear]

I've never noticed damnation being bugged before though

[tired crown]

It was but I haven't played a non modified one for a while

[jade pebble]

Question : if i end up taking Warp Battery, does that mean Kinetic Shielding will provide less damage reduction per warp charge?

not to be confused with less total damage reduction, which isn't the question

[agile nexus]

good pick for a veteran?

[toxic idol]

Hey guys, the wording of the achievements confuses me a smidge. This one for example, do I need to kill 20 consecutive enemies in a row with a headshot 20 times? as in I've done it 4 times so far, or is it saying that I've only managed to kill 4 in a row so far?

[jade pebble]

20 consecutive yes, misses count against it.

easiest really is to just Brainburst.

20 enemies

[autumn smelt]

still can't get in, are they gonna fix it someday?

[toxic idol]

I understand I must headshot 20 enemies yes, but do I need to do it 20 times to finish it? so 400 headshots?

20, then another 20 in a row and so on

[jade pebble]

No just 20 headshots in a row

[toxic idol]

so the above pic is saying so far I've only managed to headshot 4 in a row yeah?

[jade pebble]

Correct.

[toxic idol]

ah right, I get you thanks. This explains allot of the other achievements so

[tepid skiff]

be advised: psyker headpops count as headshots.

it's much easier to do it this way, rather than gun.

[toxic idol]

yeah have not played psyker yet, just the wording on all the achievements is similar and was confused a bit

like the other preacher one where you must hit a sniper with a stun grenade from 40 metres. I thought I had to do it 40 times as I was at like 26/40 when I saw it

[tepid skiff]

nah, just your best attempt to date.

[toxic idol]

yeah I get that now ha 👍

[blissful granite]

i know this is not a gameplay thing but do you guys still use vpn to get pass the ''4008 error cant join server'' thing? they said they'll fix it soon but like how soon? lol

[lime imp]

Its fatshark

So in their own weird eurodev time

Multiplayer still coming to vt2 guys!

Any year now...

[stark merlin]

Can anyone explain why I haven't received at item as a reward for a mission in over 30 missions? I haven't received an item since level 18 and I'm about a dozen missions into level 30

[fringe panther]

Were there any mentions about weekly contracts being adjusted? Now its insane to be completing on more than 1 character

[tired crown]

Haven't seen anything, no. But they sometimes respond to questions in general chat which immediately gets buried so it's really difficult to find good information.

[fringe panther]

Dang 😦

[vernal wolf]

Out of curiosity how they expect me to complete a secondary objective on a particular if that fucking map dosent appear or if it dose appear once in a blue moon those so without a secondary objective.

[tired crown]

I think it's something that really needs to be tweaked, until then just maybe reroll?

If it works, haha

[proven escarp]

Whats considered a (Gunner)? I have a curio available that gives 20% reduction from them

[hard goblet]

You're expected to suffer or reroll the task.

[hard goblet]

Scab gunners and dreg gunners. The ones you can ping with the scroll wheel.

[proven escarp]

What about the ogryn gunners?

[hard goblet]

The regular grunts are considered "shooters" instead of "gunners".

[hard goblet]

Those are called "reapers" when you ping them.

They're considered an unyielding type enemy.

[nova cipher]

You'd think there'd be more helpful pins in this channel than the only one there is ...

[rigid wasp]

is there anybody willing to help with the On Overwatch penance for Veteran? dm me pls

[mystic wyvern]

Does anyone know what the efficient combo for cleaving hoards with the force sword is?

[blissful granite]

https://tenor.com/view/family-guy-stewie-griffin-gone-crazy-insane-letter-l-gif-17135412

[mystic wyvern]

Hmm, is it light, heavy, block, repeat? I don't see any other combos with more cleave.

[lime imp]

Yea

I usually push after the block cancel

Force sword push is incredible

Not the pushattack

Just to clarify

[mystic wyvern]

Oh yea that's what I meant by block haha

[nimble flare]

Does anyone know what the max Rating is for weapons and for curios (trinkets)?

[slow fog]

Is it just me or did the patch yesterday help increase performance quite a lot

Other than some of the desert levels, the game was running pretty good for me

Relatively speaking

[harsh sun]

Hmm, I wish the little weapon descriptions were still here. What's the difference between the mark II and mark V ripper gun?

[spiral goblet]

Only level that doesn't run fairly smooth for me most of the time is hab drekyo investigation, which runs atrociously. worse than before.

[slow fog]

I think spread?

[harsh sun]

Yeah I think spread but there used to be the description that said it but it's gone now

[nimble flare]

damage too

[jagged coyote]

a quick question

how do you make it so the game shows the stats of weapons in percentages

[slow fog]

It already does?

Do you mean something other than damage/cleave etc?

[jagged coyote]

so it like shows 80% damage and stuff like that

[quick remnant]

Are there clothes that don't cover the arms for the Zealots ? Apart from the Prison garb ?

[slow fog]

Not that i know of

[harsh sun]

Mouse over them

In the weapon inspect view

[spiral goblet]

It already should... if you're looking for MORE information, inspect the weapon and mouse over the stats.

[lime imp]

Gamepass ver?

[jagged coyote]

i just figured it out, its gamepass shenanigans',

yep

[lime imp]

Yep

Lol fatshark

[jagged coyote]

looked it up and yea

am gonna have to pixel count to see it these lassgun is better than these one

any who thx for the help y'all

[spiral goblet]

F

[silk willow]

Okay, I kinda need help. Psyker here.
smoothly playing Heresy, can tank a daemonhost more or less reliably for some time, but nothing scares me like poxbursters when my ult is down (and sometimes when it isn't, even, I cant grasp which of their jumps are counterable mid-air and which aren't)
I watched some video where player just pushes it mid-jump, dodges back and leaves unscathed. did that just now - lost 1/3rd health, dodge distance wasn't enough.

what's the reliable way to not take damage from them while with a melee weapon?

I know Surge does, but I'm running Purge right now. for fun, variety and other purposes.

[slow fog]

A lot of the time it feels like rng. Sometimes they fly back far, sometimes they seem to just crumple at your feet. Sometimes they explode after being pushed, sometimes they don't.
Other than making sure your dodge window is open and immediately dodging back, there's not a lot I know of

[wild hemlock]

Different melee weapons have different dodge distance and speed. Check the weapon stats. Or do a dodge-slide for a little extra distance. The rest is just timing.

[spiral goblet]

The mid-air push relies on a melee weapon with enough Mobility to get clear. The alternative for you is to charge your Brain Burst with RMB when you hear it coming, then you can pop it with LMB as soon as you can see it.

[silk willow]

Heresy poxburster is 2 BBs.

[slow fog]

Yeah I assume you're running force sword? If not the dodge range on a sabre or dagger would probably do the trick

[spiral goblet]

(oops I forgot that bit)

[silk willow]

the dps/melee tank option.
kinetic deflection Axe mk5.

it's the other "top tier" psyker weapon compared to FSword, just less popular since requires a bit of understanding what's going on with it.

[wild hemlock]

Tactical axe has relatively good mobility.

It's what I use on my Psyker.

[slow fog]

I do hope we get force axes etc

[silk willow]

but yeah, ty, guess gonna look for timings. Kinda hard to learn when you usually try to minimize risks and not rush it with melee during heresy runs.

[slow fog]

If you really want to perfect it you could always practice push range etc in the psykhanium

But without the explosion radius that's gonna be of limited use

[versed trail]

So after reaching level 15 with all classes except Psyker I decided to give him a try
and i just gotta ask how you play that guy because he just feels like a shitty Veteran with AoE abilities that push enemies out of the melee range of fellow Fanatics and Ogryns. and well, Veteran has a AoE ability with a cooldown too called "Grenade"

Like does he get better with higher rank?

Fanatic is a hybrid between Ogryn and Veteran, massively buffing Toughness durability. Ogryn is tank and Veteran brings so much ordnance that he can even rearm a fellow Thumper Ogryn

[spiral goblet]

Zealot Preacher?

[versed trail]

Yeah, i meant that one as Fanatic

22,5% less toughness damage taken (or what it was with the level 15 skill) is pretty good

[lavish prairie]

Anyone else on game pass not getting twitch drops?

[cloud jasper]

is this bugged ever since i first started playing the game told me there was something new unlocked in the cosmetics tab

[harsh sun]

What's the difference between the three braced autoguns?

[cobalt tartan]

Agrippina fires slower, more accurately, and hits hards, Collumnus and Graia have different damage and RoFs, but I can't remember which is which, think Graia is the fastest firing but least damaging and Columnus is inbetween.

[tired crown]

Yeah it's like that for just about everyone, not sure the cause.

[rapid elk]

Hey chat, I got a question about crit chance. What's the base chance to crit? I noticed only some weapons list a crit chance modifier, do heavy weapons not crit?

[bleak maple]

if i craft a weapon do i get increased modifiers?

[digital raven]

Sorry if this is the wrong chat

Do you guys think FSR2 or nvidia DLSS delivers better results?

[bleak maple]

dlss for me

[digital raven]

better image quality to frames ratio?

[rich smelt]

Games are getting a bit harder with people at lvl 7-9 queuing up for T3 missions

[cloud jasper]

what would be better suited for a cannoness style character? zealot or veteran?

[torn wigeon]

Zealot for aesthetic, veteran for power sword/bolter combo

tho zealots can still use bolters as well

[crystal barn]

is there any complete weapon list? The sites I found are kinda crap about it, I wanna see how many freaking axes there are

scratch that, gameslantern seems complete now

[lime imp]

Afaik base is 5%

[edgy plinth]

sorry for the noob q, how do you know on a weapons stats if it will be rapid fire or for example, 3 shot burst at a time

[crystal barn]

so what's difference between the MKI and III Helbore Lasgun except the special melee attack? The MKII (the one I bought at least) I get because it seems to be more about fire rate and using the non charged attack

[crystal barn]

wdym, you can inspect them and it will tell you

It should at least

[edgy plinth]

for example one might say rapid fire, another will say high damage, but wondered how you can know if it will allow you to shoot until you let go of LMB, or if it will be 3 shots at a time, etc.

some guns like an auto gun only fire 3 shot bursts

[crystal barn]

the Headhunter specifically does that, at least the Mk III

one of the other two Headhunter variants has has a 2 round burst afaik

but I haven't checked to see what the inspect tells you

so either it's there or you have to test it

[edgy plinth]

oh ok

ty

[late pelican]

Don't know if its a question for this channel but, is the "Just a flesh wound" for zealot even possible to do the way it was intended?
Just had what i thought was an assassination mission in which we pretty much pushed as much as possible and it still took like 25 mins

[crystal barn]

I know that weapons like the Ogryn's Ripper Gun tell you how it fires

[rigid wasp]

is there any work around for getting like 2 fps after reconnecting?
also, any work around for crashing on reconnect?

ran into both these issues in different missions today

[torn wigeon]

Most of the basic ranged weapons (save some specialized weapons, like psyker staves and plasma guns) come in variants, usually about 3. Of the one’s I’ve come across:

Kantrael Lasguns and Autoguns (both normal and braced) with varying rates of fire
Accatran Recon Lasguns with one variant with a much higher RoF
Headhunter Autoguns with single/burst fire
Lucius Hellbore Lasguns with different bayonet function and charge speed

Usually it will say if it’s burst-fire specifically for the Headhunter, and I’ve noticed the high RoF recon lasgun will also say “torrent” specifically. Other than that, the only way to tell is by the name itself, the part of the name that says MkX or w/e

[cerulean ivy]

If I afk at the start of a map will it let players queue into me or do I have to progress further first?

[torn wigeon]

you can afk, but enemies can still come to you if you wait long enough. you can try finding a group in the #vox-lfg-lexicanum channels

[unkempt adder]

May I ask what is highest power level on the items right now? :x

[twin olive]

when this comin

[torn wigeon]

not sure if it’s confirmed yet! we think it might be 505 with the right base rating and blessings/perks

[unkempt adder]

Hmmmm I see.... So weapons may be 505? Or lower plus Curio?

[torn wigeon]

individual items, not overall rating yes

[unkempt adder]

I see I see, thanks for information tho

[green axle]

does anyone know what "shattered impact" does exactly?

[torn wigeon]

https://www.reddit.com/r/DarkTide/comments/z9jxxk/rending_is_amazing_boltgun_with_and_without/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

[green axle]

ah nice, os it does make my gren launcher with shattered impact a good support weapon

my next question would be, if there is another flechette rank that adds 2 bleeding instead of one for the ripper gun

[torn wigeon]

I think rending means enemy armor mitigates less damage/you just deal more dmg to armored enemies like crushers, maulers, etc. Sounds p invaluable for backliner special/elite killers

[green axle]

in the video it looks more like a debuff that is applied

[torn wigeon]

Possibly, but also with the coming changes to the crafting system, you might be able to combine two flechette blessings to make a stronger one.

[boreal cosmos]

what does "rending on armored enemies" do?

[toxic idol]

Hey guys, on that penance where it says to complete x/7 missions on a certain difficulty. is there any way to tell which missions you have not done yet?

[dense moat]

Not easily if you have more than one lvl 30 character. You can try to work it out from the Missions section of Penances where it says how many times you've done each type of mission in total, but it's not very reliable.

[viscid agate]

Should I spend gold on buying weapons early or can they drop from missions? I am level 4

[versed trail]

Can I write a formal complaint to a tech priest why i can have sights on my Lasgun but can't have them on my Bolter?

[unkempt adder]

I mean... would be nice to have kinda sight option for guns

since charge laser gun with iron sight kinda... make it harder to be sniper

[dusty zealot]

What is the fastest way to level my shop's item level

[edgy frost]

Is there no matchmaking?

[mystic maple]

Hi i got a question does anyone know if resources will be shared between characters in the future?

[shell cedar]

BOYZ...I did it...before the weekly expired

never again...lol

[shrewd pendant]

I shared my build and wrote a little guide at the bottom explaining all the choices and some gameplay tips for Sharpshooter if anyone's interested in getting into the class for Damnation runs.
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/f1483411-8960-4109-ab05-8f95c3d1d132/god-sentry

[edgy frost]

Is T3 meaning tier 3?

[mighty sierra]

why would you wanna be a sniper?

[unkempt adder]

Why not be a sniper from time to time?

[real umbra]

do you mean those guys that like to stay away from the group and go to the "sniper" spots only to be mobbed? XD

[unkempt adder]

I mean to have better scope then iron sight

on guns that are rather for longer fights

[mighty sierra]

yea no

you can hit anything with a revolver

[real umbra]

eh, i think the iron sights are by design

they do suck tho D:

[unkempt adder]

Some guns just could use some better sight

but imo

[mighty sierra]

no they dont

[golden talon]

ofc they could, but it's all part of the balance, bad sights or good sights

[unkempt adder]

I guess, just saying shrugs

[mighty sierra]

just learn to aim or learn how to melee

[golden talon]

how helpful

[mighty sierra]

thats it, soo many vets think they can just get away with staying away and be ranged

but then they die and cry

[golden talon]

yes, it's a melee focused game.
also, yes, some guns have awful sights
also, yes, being able to snipe the snipers right back is helpful
don't be a prick about it?

[mystic wyvern]

You must be fun at parties

[unkempt adder]

Funny that you say I cry just because I said that having some other sight option then iron sight on some weapons is bad thing

[crimson fable]

A shooter being melee focused... It is indeed hilarious

Well, by devs words it should be hybrid combat, but it is clear they failed in that too

[unkempt adder]

And trust me, I can take care of my own in the close fight with meele weapons

Not failed as much as they not think about it

[haughty radish]

is there any way to make the settings stay? every time I re launch the game the setting are reset

[sharp lark]

same ^

[severe bridge]

what are good perks for the eviscerator?

[mighty sierra]

search for the user config file and set it to read only

[pearl night]

Cleave

[severe bridge]

is there a cleave oerk?

[mighty sierra]

windows key + r, %appdata%, fatshark, darktide, user_config

[haughty radish]

I already had the read only checked off, could it be something else?

[mighty sierra]

set it to on

[haughty radish]

oh sorry I mean on dunno why I typed off lmao

im just dumb, excuse me

[bitter summit]

is this good? the damage bar seems kinda low, im not sure how much that matters (jsut checked damage numbers and it does less damage but maybe the blessings can carry it?), but other than that it looks nice

got it in emperors gift

[rigid wasp]

Why does the lasgun eat multiple ammo per shot... as opposed to simply reducing their mag/ammo capacity?

[storm laurel]

who knows

[rigid wasp]

figured

[storm laurel]

probably some weird obscure reason early in development

[slow fog]

Personally I don't like Evisc unless they have +toughness on hit

[rigid wasp]

maybe players had the ability to wield multiple range weapons at one point, where lasguns eat different amount of ammo

[restive tulip]

there is a perk that reduces lasgun energy cost if you wait X seconds between each shot

additionally, lucius-pattern lasguns have variable ammo consumption depending on how much you charge the shot, it seems that they extended the logic to all las-type weapons to keep the battery concept generally uniform

[slow fog]

It is fairly rare in my experience to be frequently running low on ammo if you're using a las, but I think I tend to be more conservative with how much I shoot

Especially as vet, since powersword is so stronk

But yeah, seems weird that if it shoots three rounds per shot that they dont just divide the ammo and mag capacity by 3

Might be something to do with rounding in relation to the ammo stat

But probably not

[tepid coyote]

I agrée with Dan but using a flamethrower just a bit make me low ammo if there’s hordes all the time

[shrewd pendant]

Bruh someone explain why I can't beat Damnation Distortion mission with a team of "experienced players" from this discord on voice coms but the 1st time I queue up for it solo we beat it with 3/4 players and 1 bot... in a cave... with a box of scraps!

[uneven cargo]

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to effectively use the Locke Pattern Bolter

[bitter summit]

but what do you think about it in general? if I understand it correctly I should gain almost 300% more cleave while im in a horde fighting no? it's around ~40dmg loss / hit , but the amount of cleave I get from this might even it out no?

[uneven cargo]

Also why is the best lasgun from Elysian Drop Troops automatic?

[slow fog]

Im not really sure how the mechanics of cleave and the interaction with damage works to be honest. I just know that Zealot kind of needs toughness regen. You can probably get away with it if you're good on 3, but on 4 or up the eviscirator becomes less viable anyway and if you don't have toughness generation there, you're probably screwed

It would be especially important given that difficulty 4 changes the breakpoints for so many enemies and when you're in melee, your only reliable source of toughness is killing enemies

[solemn locust]

hm, anyone else having server issues?

[bitter summit]

yeah I guess you're right, I'm playing on Heresy atm and I agree toughness is very very useful

it saved me so many times

[slow fog]

Yeah honestly, I'm looking forward to a balance patch

[bitter summit]

but overall the 36% damage on this thing was a bit sad

[slow fog]

I've almost exclusively been playing on 3s because I'm levelling each character while they roll out more end game stuff

[uneven cargo]

Always, every time here

[solemn locust]

i typically didnt get them except on release day of pre release beta, hence my confusion.

[slow fog]

But from my experience, 4 seems like quite an extreme jump in difficulty, largely because of breakpoints

[bitter summit]

im gonna try it out and see if it sucks

[bitter summit]

I started with 4 recently and I'm fairly comfortable with it, but I didn't go there until I was literally bored of 3

[slow fog]

Yeah thats kind of the problem I have

I've been bored of 3s for a while now haha

[bitter summit]

maybe go for 4 + Less Horde

see what it's like for you

[slow fog]

But I don't want to invest time into my level 30s until they finish crafting etc

[bitter summit]

understandable

[slow fog]

Nah 3s while levelling is fine

Until you get to like 20/25 then it starts feeling a bit too easy again

[keen sonnet]

There's absolutely no way to see which of the 7 missions you've done for a Penance, correct?

[slow fog]

I've only got my Ogryn left and he's level 19 now. I'm going away in a week until New Year, so hopefully by then they've done some balancing/added more end game content/gear options

[slow fog]

Not really. Technically if it's your first character you can

By checking the missions tab

You can see how many missions of each type you've done

But that's across all characters

So if you've been playing more than one its unreliable

[keen sonnet]

I haven't, really

Especially not on heresy

[slow fog]

It doesn't filter by difficulty unfortunately

It can still be a useful for a rough guide though

Like espionage, repair and the scanning one are probably lower than the others if you've been playing since pre release

[keen sonnet]

I feel like it's probably investigation?

It defo isn't repair, raid, or assassination

It isn't disruption

Doubt it's strike

[slow fog]

It is a very silly oversight

I hope they add the ability to see what you're missing

[keen sonnet]

I just need 1 more for 100

And 1 more for my 6/7

And I get my fancy hat

So it'd be quite nice to do it in 1

[slow fog]

Yeah thats fair haha

[keen sonnet]

If they added a V2 queue system this wouldn't be as much of an issue either methinks

[waxen shoal]

Can anyone confirm the Shred blessing works properly? It really doesnt seem to function in the Grinder on my Claw sword
Averaging maybe 2 crits every 21 strikes

[slow fog]

Itd be tricky to do that now with the rotating mutations thing

[cursive torrent]

is there an exact definition on what "power" is?

[bitter violet]

Maybe there should be a tooltip that says “don’t touch the daemonhost.”

[cursive torrent]

i think i understand that power isnt damage, but it does increase damage. i uess i was just hoping someone would know the conversion ratio.

[solemn locust]

Power is simply the total number of all the weapon's stats combined if I understand it correctly.

[cursive torrent]

no. there are blessings that give you "power" when you meet criteria. im talking about that. not power rating.

like this

[sleek cosmos]

can somebody help me out when i consecrate something the modifier never goes up somebody can explain why?

[golden hill]

because it's probably a bug, base stats seem to stay the same during consecration

[elder mantle]

i got time, right?

[sleek cosmos]

is it acknowledged by by devs?

[golden hill]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Check Fatshark forums, if not - make a thread

[sleek cosmos]

no way im the only one that noticed that right

[golden hill]

Yeah, I honestly couldn't be bothered

[fossil gyro]

what's the best melee weapon for preacher

[peak niche]

I like the Eviscerator. It seems to be up there as far as general dps for melee goes (although I hear the regular chain sword is better for singletarget? Would have to test). The Thunder Hammer has some design quirks I'm not a fan of, but it can def destroy bosses and unarmoured targets with practice.

Apart from that, the Catachan Knife can also get some really good results if you go for headshots (especially if you get some good bleed blessings). It also has extremely good mobility

[slow fog]

Axe, knife or eviscirator for zealot

Knife probably the best imo

Evisc feels better tho

Just less viable in 4+

[kind zephyr]

This is intentional. Part of the blogpost confirms it.

[zealous robin]

What does brittleness do?

[kind zephyr]

It's so you can farm base stats you like and then mess about with the extras .

[kind zephyr]

Armour reduction afaik.

[slow fog]

I assume brittleness would be straight damage increase

Vs rend which I imagine is armour reduction

[kind zephyr]

It's so you can watch whites for great base stats and consecrate them explicitly.

[slow fog]

Could be the other way around or something else entirely though

[zealous robin]

So teammates benefit from rendering only?

[kind zephyr]

Good point. brittleness could also be stagger weakness as well.

[peak niche]

Hey, is it possible to walk right past daemonhosts at close range? I always go out of my way to give them a wide berth, and I've not been able to test it yet

[kind zephyr]

I think so.
I've done it and survived.

[void compass]

does anyone know if Gamepass has the Veteran toughness bug?

it feels like I take so much dmg compared to my zealot

[terse pond]

dyou guys think this is good enough to grab? feels like it is rolled quite well for what it is just the rating overall is quite low

whats the max rating you can have roughly?

[edgy plinth]

just finished a heresy mission - now damnation still left but I heard that's brutal!

[shrewd pendant]

idk about max but you should be finding ~460 on average, it seems like you're not at lvl 30 yet

[restive tulip]

really lucky weapon rolls can hit slightly over 500, i wouldn't really go for it unless you really love the moveset of that cleaver, and that mobility will really hurt your ability to dodge

[terse pond]

yea my og is 28

[leaden urchin]

not sure where to post this but came across a glitched scripture we couldnt pick up

[terse pond]

yeah. i do love it, its my favorite variant, but i play this game enough that i could aim higher

[odd sparrow]

80% mods
2 25% perks
3 t4 blessings

[edgy plinth]

I had that with grenades before, some pickups haven't worked but rare for me

[restive tulip]

i say hit 30 and wait

[terse pond]

mhm

[odd sparrow]

But good luck with out crafting

[terse pond]

just sad that i see something vaguely pretty already

[leaden urchin]

just annoying when its a scripture haha

[slow fog]

I've had that with the desert maps a few times

Dont think I've had it on any of the spire missions

Stupid sticky sand

[restive tulip]

Axe Gang members, what's your favorite axe pattern? (pretend the lightweight tactical axes are here)
I'm an Antax pattern fan, the moveset just feels right and the jab special attack stumbles basically anything

[hollow flame]

I saw the revolver has critical bonus as a statistic
Are there any melee weapons with this statistic?

[slow fog]

maybe the knife?

[shell cedar]

critical bonus also appears on assassin axes

[echo kiln]

In the forums. Devs don't come here

[gilded flare]

is this good/worth buying?

[stone eagle]

I missed my weekly bonus cuz of the progress bug

[hot kiln]

These secondary objective ones are horrible and i think im past the cap of replacing task, 7500, and unable to replace it 😦
anyone know if i can replace it on another day or am i doomed for the week...

[timid roost]

Anyone know if having lower penetration for a chainsword is bad? I found one in the shop that has high 70's and 1 80 in everything except that stat. I'm not a big chainsword guy but trying to figure out if it's worth picking up to upgrade since it seems like a pretty good roll. 79% shredder

[slow fog]

What is that second blessing? It saying "chamber" makes it sound like it should be for a revolver

[timid roost]

http://puu.sh/JtihD/c42aa6c93e.png

[slow fog]

If that's +4% crit for each shot fired in a magazine, that's pretty strong

For a weapon with a 35 shot magazine

[timid roost]

I know that the idea of a meta right now is to pick lower rarity weapons that have high stats to upgrade - just unsure if a low pen here makes this not a good deal

[gilded flare]

I think each bullet fired so missing from your clip increases the crit chance?

[slow fog]

Yeah that's my read on it too

Alongside the other blessing that seems pretty strong

[hollow flame]

The knife doesn't have it

[gilded flare]

Are '''Perks'' able to reroll when the full crafting comes out?

[hollow flame]

we don't know

[slow fog]

Theoretically the last ~10 shots are guaranteed crits, and any weakspot crits have bonus crit damage

So seems good

[gilded flare]

Just not sure if I would prefer it over a kantreal lasgun

[bitter violet]

Thanks random emperor gift. But I wasn’t on the right class for it.

Sadge.

[slow fog]

My last 10 vet levels or so made me think that Emperors Gift isn't just random

[bitter violet]

I hope we get a shared inventory or item vault to move things. Also that we get the ability to turn old weapons in to crafting mats.

[slow fog]

I think I got like 12 purple Emperors Gifts going from 20-30

[cursive torrent]

if i were to buy the weapon trinket from the zealot class shop, would i be able to use it on other classes?

[bitter violet]

All my gifts from big E have been pretty trash tbh. Except my last one.

[timid roost]

not having a shared inventory legit makes me feel like I'm just getting punished for wanting to play more characters. It's so backwards

[slow fog]

I believe so

[bitter violet]

This one was nice.

[slow fog]

Cant say for certain though

[bitter violet]

Yeah. :/ That and the ability to break down old weapons in to crafting mats.

[slow fog]

This is why I'm levelling for now

I'll play level 30s in the new year

When hopefully more stuff is released to end game players

[cursive torrent]

oh. you cant buy individual pieces? then why include a price on them?

[timid roost]

I have a 30 zealot, and a 15 Ogryn and it's feeling like a slog. I have 0 interest in getting a veteran or psyker up after that.

Compared to VT2 where I felt actively encouraged to try all the different classes and builds

[echo kiln]

How the heck do you fight a daemonhost without an ogryn? (I am aware that you shouldn't bother it in the first place. I just don't control all the other people in my squad)

[cursive torrent]

DPS

[slow fog]

TFW you see the level 12 stare at the DH and you know you're about to lose 2 people

[cursive torrent]

whoever is being attacked should just be blocking with their melee as much as they can

[echo kiln]

I'm asking for advice on dancing with it and not getting got. It's gonna target someone

[restive tulip]

the victim needs to be really good at dodging and blocking with a nimble or sturdy weapon

[cursive torrent]

im not sure if it can be dodged effectively

[bitter violet]

You don’t.

Or whoever is aggro’d has to block and literally nothing else.

It’s not even worth engaging rn anyway.

[cursive torrent]

its just a dps check. you just block as much as you can and hope your team can kill it before it breaks your neck

[echo kiln]

I've done that and I still get wiped anyway.

[echo kiln]

Yes. I know. As I said.

[bitter violet]

Then your party dps was too low.

I had a group with 2 psykers who shredded one on malice like it was nothing. But they were both 25 or so.

Then in my last run we couldn’t do it in time.

[cursive torrent]

2 vets with bolters and the sustained fire feat can fuck them up

[keen idol]

when is the rest of crafting coming out?

[bitter violet]

Soon™️

[keen idol]

? is there any reason why its not in i cant find anything about it

[bitter violet]

Presumably it wasn’t ready yet.

There’s some controversy around it but we ain’t talking about that right now. As far as we know we will get it eventually.

Until then I’m hoarding all my crafting mats and hoping we get an option to breakdown old gear for crafting mats.

[dull plinth]

Best way to level up? Just spamming lvl 2 missions rn probs go to 3 soon

[slow fog]

If you're new, level ones are probably quicker

The difference in xp between 1 and 2 is only 100xp, which is maybe like 7% more

So the speed you can get it done on an easier difficulty will probably lead to more efficient gains

Level 3s are a fairly significant boost though

[dull plinth]

I'm at lvl 16 on vet

I've noticed 3 vs 2 tends to be much slower

[slow fog]

16 is fine to move up to 3

[dull plinth]

Yeah I can do them just seems a bit inefficient

[slow fog]

Get a power sword and youll be fine

[echo kiln]

Difficulty 3 is much better for xp

[slow fog]

I know they recently buffed the amount of xp per mission for 3+

[dull plinth]

Ja I'm rocking lasgun and psword

Gotcha

[slow fog]

But I believe its something like double

Vs level 2

[dull plinth]

Ah I thought it was only like 1.5x

[slow fog]

I cant remember

[heady vale]

What's the difference in exp per threat level? (average guess appreciated too)

[dull plinth]

I'll for sure have to do them if it's 2x

[slow fog]

Either way, the extra time spent vs extra xp gained works out that 3s are better if you can consistently win

[dull plinth]

Sedition: 2,280 gold, 1,900 experience points
Uprising: 4,180 gold, 2,000 experience points
Malice: 7,440 gold, 3,100 experience points
Heresy: 14,820 gold, 4,250 experience points
Damnation: 19,950 gold, 5,450 experience points

Idk if this accurate or not

[slow fog]

Oh OK I was a bit off

Oh right

[dull plinth]

But I found this online

[heady vale]

Oh that's pretty solid, Thanks Kraken

[slow fog]

They buffed XP for 3+ in a recent hotfix, not sure if this reflects it or not

[dull plinth]

Gotcha

[slow fog]

Not at home right now so I can't confirm

[heady vale]

I just appreciate the vague idea I don't think it's going to be lower than stated anyway

[echo kiln]

It's accurate to what I've been getting on 3

[slow fog]

Ah OK, so must be more like 50% more xp then

Still probably worth it, I doubt you'd be finishing 2s 50% faster. Also better crafting mats in 3s

I guess the only real trade off is success chance

[warm charm]

Is there a way to set to bots only or private matches

[tepid skiff]

gentlemen, do you have any tips on getting 'the emperor protects'? block 600 damage that is.

[proper smelt]

Fight a daemonhost

That's how I got it

Wasn't even trying

[mighty sierra]

no

[warm charm]

😦

[bitter violet]

I also aggro’s a daemonhost to get it.

Presumably on heresy or damnation it will do a lot more damage.

[tepid skiff]

but then i'd be griefing a more serious run.

[stone condor]

you're basically griefing your team if you go for the malice and heresy penances for your class, I really hope they rework them or make them a little easier

was losing my mind trying to go for the 100% accuracy no ammo on the vet

gave up

[mighty sierra]

ez, take a low lvl low ammo weapon, hordes are blobs of enemies you can shoot without killing them because 100 GS will do nothing, shoot all you ammo into them and dont forget you get ammo from time to time

[tepid skiff]

blocking in general doesn't seem overly destructive behaviour.

popping a dhost, on ther other hand, does.

[stone condor]

first you have to wait for the shop to bless you with a garbage weapon with low ammo

[tepid skiff]

and malice these days isn't as bad as it was on beta, there is a lot of leeway in how you play.

[mighty sierra]

no you just keep your standard weapon when creating a new character

[stone condor]

deleted it xD

[mighty sierra]

then i cant help you

its by far the easiest way to do it

[stone condor]

you know the penance is bad when you have to resort to doing that

[mighty sierra]

it can still be done with other weapons but this is just the easiest

[tepid skiff]

plasma or revolver are the most penetrating, to create an excess of accuracy points. but plasma is easier to waste the ammo you're getting from the passive.

[mighty sierra]

i had a buddy do it with a 350 GS weapon

[stone condor]

yeah I've been trying to do it with plasma and revolver, but hit reg likes to screw me, I'll see the blood and 0 damage

[mighty sierra]

only use it in hordes tho

[lavish folio]

Does anyone have any suggestions on getting "Going out with a bang"? Im currently trying to solo queue Damnation runs to suicide into 3+ ragers

[tepid skiff]

how do you solo que?

[lavish folio]

Pick damnation difficulty missions, no one is playing them lol

[mighty sierra]

only late at night

[lavish folio]

Pick it, wait one minute for it to put you in a lobby by yourself, press ready at 50 seconds

[mighty sierra]

during the day i can find enough games with people

[slow fog]

Huh...

[lavish folio]

Yeah Im seeing games, I can consistantly get solo lobbys if I join a brand new mission on the board

I just dont want to greif lobbys just to get a stupid penence

[slow fog]

Do class specific penances unlock the cosmetics on a second character of that class?

Like, could my level 1 zealot run around with all the stuff I unlocked on my 30 zealot

[tepid skiff]

ok then, and what seems to be the problem? it doesn't work?

[shell cedar]

sigh....i still see people that queued heresy, and still use flamer and shoot pew pew lasers at the boss when his shield is still up

[lavish folio]

Probably not @slow fog . @tepid skiff No the problem is that it's very difficult to get and I havent gotten it, I was wondering if there is an easier way than taking 10 minutes per suicide attempt to get this shit tier penence

[nova cipher]

o.O

[slow fog]

By the way friends, if you run up to the boss and everyone sticks their back against the wall, it is much easier

he cant blow you back that way

[woven sonnet]

Yes, penances are tied to account, not character

[slow fog]

so all the time he spends on the animation is wasted

If everyone does it, then he wont run away and ruin it

[tepid skiff]

why, what's wrong with that? is melee the only recommended way of dropping shield?

[shell cedar]

that's well and good...usually people figure this out on malice or lower

[slow fog]

Yeah im always surprised when people dont do it

[shell cedar]

range deal very little to no damage when his shield is up...Only bolters can do things to it, but even that its reduced significantly

4 ppl meleeing him...he wont get a chance to do anything

[tepid skiff]

the only thing i noticed is that chainweapons seem to drop shield real fast.

[shell cedar]

i had thought....people queuing for heresy...would have known so i didnt give a friendly PSA to melee him only...lol

[tepid skiff]

on rev mode that is.

[shell cedar]

usually i just give this friendly PSA on the elevator...

[slow fog]

Yeah once his shield is down Force Sword absolutely chunks him

Pretty much puts his shield straight back up

With the special attack obvs

[shell cedar]

maybe if FS isnt so stingy and have the boss in the meat grinder so people can test stuff out

but the boss in general is very squishy

[slow fog]

Yeah its usually either
The boss's OP gun
Adds
that causes wipes

[shell cedar]

oh i mean his melee will kill you easily. but its easy to dodge

his gun however is not

[slow fog]

Yeah but his melee at least doesn't cause corruption so if there's a health kit down you can basically just LMB spam

Until the director decides to ruin your day and throw two dogs, two flamers and a trapper at you all at once

[stone condor]

wait, does this mean if i kill a lot of enemies with one shot, I'll have over 100% accuracy, meaning I can miss 1 shot and still be good?

[tepid skiff]

from what i heard, yes, that's the idea. but i haven't got around to trying it myself yet.

[proper smelt]

I really hate the bomber

[stone condor]

I'll try it out, maybe I won't have to leave the mission the second i miss one shot

[proper smelt]

Also those firebombs cover way too much square footage

[static turtle]

should i go towering presence or bullfighter?

[slow fog]

I think shotgun is probably the best weapon for 100% accuracy

The special round shoots a really wide sweep

Shoot that vaguely in the direction of a group of enemies and you should hit

[daring walrus]

how do fix

[feral ember]

So about 40 hours in, love the game but, is there an end game past hitting 30 that I’m missing? Other than getting marginally more powerful weapons and spending my dockets on armor and weapon skins?

[stone condor]

that seems like a good idea, been waiting for a shotgun to show up in the shop

[haughty wren]

im lv8, where get curio

[slow fog]

Shop

[haughty wren]

same shop as weapon?

[slow fog]

Yep

Youll need to buy two

Theres a bug

[haughty wren]

i see

[slow fog]

You need to own at least two in order to equip your first curio

[tired crown]

That's pretty much it for now, we'll see how crafting works and if it's worth it to stockpile weapons or anything.

[feral gust]

if I wanted to fck sht up on Maulers and Boss-Shields... is the ChainAxe or CombatAxe better?
(assuming exact power-ratings, percentages)
the output shows the combat-axe is about 2x better (but is that without 'special'?

[bitter violet]

More veteran weapons while on zealot. Feels bad man.

That’s a nice roll to. :/

[tranquil grove]

Completing silo cluster missions is not giving me progress on contract ;-; Is there a hidden difficulty requirement?

[tranquil grove]

Does it even do AP? I feel like its always really awkward to get a bonus vs carapace when the gun doesn't even penetrate armor. Looking at you kantreal.

Your 17 damage done to carapace now gets bumped up to 20 damage

[bitter violet]

I was looking at the near guaranteed crits.

At half mag its +44% and then goes as high as +84% crit chance.

Increased rewards.

20% mission reward increase.

Assuming the bonus is multiplicative anyway.

[wild scaffold]

does this discord have a chat for finding a strike team?

[slow fog]

Yes #vox-lfg-nasa #vox-lfg-apac etc

[haughty umbra]

LFG channels at the bottom of the text chat list

[wild scaffold]

oh that's what that means

thanks

[rich granite]

Does anyone know how to get the shop to drop better things? for me I am only getting trash currently at level 16

[slow fog]

Pray to the Omnissiah

[rich granite]

Its been like this for days

[slow fog]

That RNG bay beeee

[keen sonnet]

Do they rotate missions in and out still? How does this work?

[slow fog]

The shop rotates on the hour every hour

[rich granite]

At least with crafting you got something you wanted

[slow fog]

Mark shop rotates every 24 hours

[rich granite]

Yeah

I have checked 8 hours each days and its the same

Pistols and axes

[crisp sleet]

They getting up with level too, find good enough items with 7x stats, even if its grey I can tune it up

[untold meteor]

does gamepass version have the toughness patch?

[crisp sleet]

Waited 2 days for a hammer^^, but thats k.

[rich granite]

It feels like they expect us to not have lives

[elfin ingot]

this is actually busted. it is crit spamming enemies.

[lament trail]

That'd be amazing if it had infernus.

[elfin ingot]

i got it as a random mission reward so i cant really complain.

[lavish prairie]

Whats the general consensus for best class currently? or are they all kinda equal?

[lament trail]

Vet's probably the most easy and versatile.

[charred steeple]

I cannot seem to do "On overwatch" has everyone done the glitch to get it or what? I'm assuming its patched now.

tried like 20+ times...

[lament trail]

I got mine when I crashed and loaded back into the assassination ending cut scene. I've heard the cheese is still in tho.

[charred steeple]

not gonna lie i tried to chesse alt = F4 beacuse I'm just fed up and it doesnt work.. I dont think anyone has it legit.

[copper atlas]

is there a crashing bug for ultra wide monitors?

[lavish prairie]

Whats the current steam version? just curios Gamepass has the 1.0.249 currently

[slow fog]

Vet is probably the best at the moment, but I think it's because vet is due a balance pass

Power sword is way too OP at the mo

And the fact that the vet (somewhat) inexplicably has more toughness than any of the other classes

Also also, no other class has the dps potential of bolter and Volley

And given that weapons actually get stronger, they can actually scale up their strength into higher difficulties, whereas psykers' brain burst doesn't

[rigid wasp]

is there a rough point where folks start attempting heresy?

[slow fog]

Im hoping that they make it "take no health damage from melee" so you can take a few hits so long you're at 100% toughness at the time

[slow fog]

Probably at level 30. I would probably leave a game if anyone turned up below 25

[turbid dock]

I finished as a 21 ogryn

[slow fog]

Im not saying its impossible, just that you're actively weaker than a 30

[turbid dock]

But for first time heresy, probably level 30

[slow fog]

Lower strength gear and less feats

So a level 30 would probably have helped more

[haughty umbra]

The stats or wut?

[slow fog]

Is that on a zealot? Cause if so, lacerate knives rule

They removed bleed self proccing more bleed right? But did they remove stun grenades causing bleed with a lacerate knife?

[haughty umbra]

Uhh is the damage difference like that if you look at inspecting the moveset damage?

[untold meteor]

will the gamepass version always be behind the steam version?

[echo kiln]

https://youtu.be/9QlBkFN9RRw

[toxic stone]

Is there anyway to check which mission type you haven't done for a character's Penance?

[slow fog]

Not really

Only through a work around by checking the missions tab to see what you've done

But that only works if you've only been playing one character, and only if you're shooting for a single difficulty

[hasty owl]

How good is this curios?

[slow fog]

Looks pretty good

Block efficiency is meh

But toughness and stamina regen is nice

And I believe those are good rolls

Unsure though

[alpine fog]

has anyone found a solution to not being able to replace weekly task bug?

[empty imp]

Should... I upgrade it? 😮 it's stats are crazy

[bitter violet]

So I got level 30 and unlocked the little rosarius. What do I do with it? Is it a cosmetic item? An ornament? I can’t figure it out.

[slow fog]

Its a weapon ornament. You need to go to weapon appearance screen and there's a second tab

[sharp robin]

So I used all my materials to upgrade, game crashed and no upgrades persisted but all materials spent. Any fix?

[brave rose]

is any quick way to do these "complete secondary missions at......" tasks cause they are so shit to do

[sharp robin]

Use voice chat in game. Let your team know that you are trying to complete it.

[brave rose]

its the fact that it rarely comes up. i have to wait for the smelter mission to appear at a reasonable difficulty and prey that it has secondary missions

[slow fog]

Does on overwatch require you to be present from the literal beginning of the map, or can I drop in?

I know I can't dip in and out at the end anymore

[calm token]

is this worth upgrading? im unsure about the sniper perk

[bitter violet]

I’d be tempted to use that because the sniper hit scan is not fun at times.

[calm token]

yeah i can see that thanks

[blissful python]

Well okay RNGesus. I still havent found a sword with the energize trait though

[tranquil grove]

I want power cycler :(

[magic hollow]

should i buy this on psyker

[tranquil grove]

A trait that literally does what I want, gib more energized hits

Is power cycler actually even available? Haven't seen it on a single power sword yet

[echo kiln]

I wouldn't. Psyker already has plenty of tools for hard targets, but if you're running flame staff it could be worth.

[orchid dirge]

Can someone explain primary action number? If thay is suppose to be damage then what is the damage modifier percentage suppose to mean?

[echo kiln]

https://youtu.be/9QlBkFN9RRw

[orchid dirge]

And why if I inspect two guns damage numbers are all the same even though one has a significantly higher percentage

Thanks I'll look into that

[echo kiln]

Within the same tier, stats are rolled randomly. The numbers displayed are base numbers.

[faint hamlet]

What button did y'all set for dodge? Mine is spacebar same as jump, which i think isn't working too well for me

[orchid dirge]

Video outdated and didn't answer my question

[lusty prairie]

Mouse4

[faint hamlet]

Okie thx 🙏

[orchid dirge]

Just wanting to know what's the difference between these two or how do they relate. Is the weapon doing 60% of the 116 primary action?

[orchid dirge]

To clarify, you are saying these numbers are base numbers and will be the same on all weapons of same type regardless of difference in stats?

[stable thistle]

want to make sure im not missing anything, but until FS finish crafting and get it released, is it best for me to just try to knock out weekly contracts on classes i have at 30 and level up other classes i want to get up in the meantime? All gear that shows up in armory/contract shop is based on lvl right? or should i be targeting high lvl items in armory to increase my gear score?

[tired crown]

The weapon has a range that the stats can fall within, 80% being the max we've seen so far. What that 60% says is that it's 60% as high as it could be

If you take that into the meat grinder and shoot at an unarmored enemy, it should do 116 non critical damage every time

Or very close to that depending on your other stats, feats, etc

[tired crown]

Yeah it's based on level. The most we can do now is save up resources and contract currency unless you see something you can't live without on the daily contract store

[orchid dirge]

Is the 116 primary action per bullet or dps?

[tired crown]

Per bullet

[stable thistle]

okay tyvm, ill just work on doing the weeklies on two characters for now then, thats probably i can manage

[orchid dirge]

Ty

[tired crown]

You're welcome!

[echo kiln]

No. The percentages under "modifiers" are rolled randomly for weapons in the same tier.

[rigid wasp]

is it possible to play with only bots? i wanna try some of these penances to unlock cosmetics, but i don't wanna slow down teams

[echo kiln]

Target white items with high base stats and then upgrade those

[echo kiln]

Not yet

[tired crown]

They said they're working on it now, hopefully some time this month.

[orchid dirge]

Also wanted to mention that the video was very informative for a lot of other things I didn't know, but outdated for the specific question I had

[stable thistle]

what is the window of gear score that white items should be at 30?

[tired crown]

I think high 300s is the best you'll see, highest I've found is (I think) 364? I'd have to check.

[echo kiln]

The number I've seen thrown around is 330+. The max is 380

[stable thistle]

okay so 330-380, and its complete RNG right?

[tired crown]

Yep

[echo kiln]

Yup. Total rng

[stable thistle]

curious how the new crafting system is gonna be, since they scrapped how it was going to work and redid it

[lusty prairie]

Is there a UI difference on both PC versions? Seems like PC Game Pass one has simplified stats.

[stable thistle]

even while inspecting?

[lusty prairie]

Aye

[tired crown]

Game pass doesn't have the most recent updates, steam is ahead in patches.

[lusty prairie]

Oh, that explains it

[tired crown]

I'm really curious how it's going to work, the way we acquire items now is a bit disappointing if I'm honest.

I can't tell you how many recon rifles I've upgraded trying to get infernus.

[placid oriole]

Any recommendations for trying to complete Sharpshooter Penance 'On Overwatch'?

[echo kiln]

Camo.
Keep a psyker at your back.

[placid oriole]

Is it no hits what so ever, or just health damage hits?

[storm laurel]

that's like half the blessings

just useless menial bonuses

[storm laurel]

just health damage

so as long as you have full toughness you can take a single melee hit

[placid oriole]

Noted

Any recommended guns?

[broken galleon]

Do we know when a "hit chain" counts as resetting/breaking?

e.g. if I wait 0.1s between swings is that still a chain

[obtuse owl]

wait, has corruption resistance for grimoires and damage been rolled into one corruption resist?

[spiral goblet]

Seems like it it's long enough to reset your attack combo, though I could be wrong.

[swift thistle]

Hey guys, hows the game solo?
My v2 party is busy with life

[placid gulch]

Do all weapons have the same base crit chance, or do different weapons have different crit chances?

[broken galleon]

Oh sweet, so as long as you don't start the next attack during the swing of the last. Cheers

[spiral goblet]

Last I heard, pretty much all weapons have 5% base, with a couple having a stat bonus to it (combat knife, tactical axe, etc.)

[inland imp]

how many times can I reroll the weeklies?
I rerolled 3 times and the game wont let me anymore

[eager umbra]

are you sure about this?

[spark elk]

can you reroll weekly contracts 3 times per day, or 3 times per week?

[signal kite]

id like to know that too
I rolled 3 times trying to dodge grims, 6 obj and pils but alas...
I really hate doing those

[split obsidian]

[drowsy sentinel]

I was gonna ask if someone can help me, I play with a laptop that has a 3060 and a i7-12700H and I play on medium to low settings and get somewhat playable fps 60-100 and my concern is whenever I pull up the nvidia performance overlay it says that my cpu usage is like 1-4% and my gpu is 70-90% in usage. Can I get them too both equally use the same power to get as much performance I can or if it’s a no go

[echo kiln]

Check task manager. People are saying overlays may not be reporting properly

[split obsidian]

check how many worker threads are allowed in launcher

but windows will generally think the cpu is used little because you have 20 threads

[drowsy sentinel]

I use 18 as much as I can but I still have the issue

[weak trellis]

is rushing bosses still possible in damnation?

[split obsidian]

the more you use, the 'less' % it's going to be 😄

[drowsy sentinel]

So it’s something the devs need to optimize?

[split obsidian]

like, pretty much no modern game is going to utilize all cores all that much.

[drowsy sentinel]

Wait what

So what do I set it too?

[split obsidian]

if you have more cores and game only uses a little bit, then % used, is much lower.

like if you have 1 core, it's going to be at 100% load.

[drowsy sentinel]

Will that increase performance?

[split obsidian]

no.

[drowsy sentinel]

So than what would

[split obsidian]

i'm trying to explain why you have "low cpu use"

[split obsidian]

buying a stronger CPU/devs optimizing the game.

[drowsy sentinel]

My cpu is decent tho

[split obsidian]

yes, decent doesn't really cut it with darktide (and vermintide)

[drowsy sentinel]

Like I never have trouble running any games it’s just this one in particular

[split obsidian]

cpu bottlenecks all around.

it's just the way they've built it

[outer bloom]

You know my favorite thing? when a lvl 1 zealot charges the demonhost and wipes a run 30 seconds in

[split obsidian]

at least it was quick

[drowsy sentinel]

So I literally just have to wait till the devs optimize the game

Can someone break down how the Pinning Fire blessing works; does it fade over time or is it permanent once stacked?

[umbral glade]

dont think too hard about it one day you will get it ( also maybe use high dodge count weapons？）

[trim panther]

skill issue, bluntly put, and yeah dont think about it (its better that way)

[inland imp]

Sorry, is "Skill issue" A VT2 thing? I don't understand this terminology.

[hollow geyser]

There are minor things you can do, but in general it is just play safe and practice not taking damage; do that and you will eventually get a run where things just go well and you get it. The only thing I will add is I am pretty sure you need to be there at the very start of the run, I didn't get the Penance when I joined a map during the starting minute of running to the enemies.

[trim panther]

in the way you put it, it can be, but basically you either work for it or avoid it entirely until you just feel like it, rather than trying to purposely try
V thanks

[echo kiln]

"Skill issue" is a common gaming phrase. It means the issue is with you not having sufficient skill.

[inland imp]

Ahh, thank you for the straight forward, non sarcastic answer. Yeah I didn't play VT2 so I have a lot of learning to do. Its really hard to not take damage as an ogryn lol.

[echo kiln]

I also did not play VT2 and am starting from 0.

[trim panther]

then to help accelerate that growth, all ranged fire can be dodged by sliding at the same time as an attack is about to hit you in melee range, sadly dodging does not cancel the tracking of the ranged attack, so you have to slide. precisely speaking, dodging/sliding works by deactivating the tracking of an attack that is targeted on you. unlike vt2, where attacks come at you pretty quickly, darktide's melee enemies either do very easily telegraphed quick hits, or, again, easily telegraphed hits that take actual ages to hit you, mentioned because it is very easy to accidentally dodge before an attack is actually gonna hit you (if you've played a lot of vt2). there are also a number of attacks that go through block, but these attacks only do that if the attack that hits you exceeds your current stamina, which ends up actually hitting your health if you cannot block the attack with both your toughness and stamina, limited to elite enemies like maulers, crushers, and bosses. sliding can also be initiated from a dodge. there are also specific dodge counts on weapons, distances, and knowing when you need to refresh those dodges by not dodging because of that

[echo kiln]

Thank you for some solid mechanical advice. We the learners salute you.

[slow fog]

Also backstab warning sound

Having that automatically trigger you putting up block minimum, ideally spinning 180 and pushing

Thats important

[inland imp]

They need to make sliding bindable. I dodge a lot but sliding requires me to take my ring finger off A, hit SHIFT with it and then hit CTRL with my pinky. Which momentarily makes me unable to strafe left. Its either that or using the default position of my hand and hitting SHIFT with my pinky and then flattening it out awkwardly to also hit CTRL. Which can sometimes make me mash other keys that I don't mean to.

[trim panther]

for clarification, sliding from a dodge is initiated by first dodging and then pressing control after initiating it, now the sliding part from a sprint is gonna take awhile to get used to. i play a lot of warframe so by default the top left of my palm facing down is always on control and is ready to press it at any time (i have small hands)

when you get it down, you wont even notice it being strange until you decide to look down and look at what your doing

[inland imp]

You must have super tiny hands or a huge keyboard. If I put the top left of my palm on CTRL my ring and pointer fingers are on the F1 and F3 keys and my middle finger extends above that.

https://tenor.com/view/jack-skelington-wave-hi-nightmare-before-christmas-bye-gif-5396363

[trim panther]

standard sized keyboard, ring finger stops at 1 and pointed just reaches half way up 3, middle is just above 2

my hands cant be that small

[inland imp]

Ah, I can see how your palm would hit CTRL if that is the case. Unfortunately its anatomically impossible for me unless I break my fingers and heal the bones at awkward angles.

[covert star]

I rebound crouch to left ALT key out of habit, which makes it a matter of moving my thumb to slide.

[inland imp]

I thought about doing this. I just dread retraining my muscle memory lol.

[covert star]

It's worth it, I'd say. I set Lalt to crouch for all my games.

[lilac talon]

I just shift, let go and let my middle part of my pinky hit ctrl instead.

[covert star]

Apologies for repeating an earlier question but I couldn't find an answer using discord search (nor online): Can someone break down how the Pinning Fire blessing works; does it fade over time or is it permanent once stacked?
