the answer is power sword for everything and it's not even remotely close
other weapons are strictly for fun or survival sticks for when you're not ready for a difficulty but need to get carried on it
perfectly valid to not want to play power sword though
it does trivialise the game to a great extent
anyone know if max block efficiency on weapons is +15% or is there a higher one? I've rerolled like 100 times and never seen a tier 4 block efficiency
well that ain't happening anytime soon.
sedition difficulty and pray you get a spawn
bolter vet w/ "The bigger they are" feat and magdump
timer starts when you see the health bar on your screen
ooh that's good to know. I wasn't aware that the timer started when you see their health. Thanks
Hello ! Can someone tell me what are those symbols right under the mission's portraits? The ones with 1, 2, 3 or 4 chevrons.
Those denote your highest completed difficulty for that mission.
whats +1 wound (curio) for?
not being used your wounds are the number of separations on your healthbar, when you go down and get resurrected, one of those wounds will fill up with corruption. when you run out of wounds you die. +1 wound will make your healthbar divided into more segments so you can go down more times.
Possibly the only thing the community can agree on is that you should not be using wounds at all once you have a half-decent grasp of the game and mechanics, because toughness or even health will always provide greater returns
essentially picking wound curios is saying you want to go down, because the alternative is picking health or toughness curios that aid in preventing you from going down.
are weapon ratings in the shop completely random or is there a way to influence them?
other than increasing your character level
random. you can check shop with a new chrome extension so you don't need to open the game now, so there's that 
@hollow geyser Oooh, that's useful ! Thanks !
Thanks
is it me or jump from T3 to T4 is weird ?
Time to wear big boy pants.
It is the largest jump in difficulty, yes.
Not impossible, but it will test things that Malice (3) doesn't teach you very well.
I accidentally triggered a daemonhost LOL my team hated me
but we made it
seriously though that shit is fucked
Damnation feels just right to me.
Good high point for difficulty and density/pace.
You'll get used to it and it'll be great.
is friendly fire a thing?
Friendlies block shots. They aren't damaged by friendly fire.
thanks
Is there any good performance guide? Or fatshark just hate AMD users?
Are there any Lasguns which take only one charge/shot (apart from Recon)?
XII and Ia seem to take 3x/shot.
Friendlies don't block Psykers or Flamers.
Ah right, I forgot about flamers. And I assumed they were asking about guns rather than psyker abilities.
just rechecked, Ia is 3x/shot.
Helbore is 5x/shot, 9x/chargedshot
Which one is better
Also you'll want to note that the Helbore also has incremental ammo usage depending on charge level.
Partial charges will result in respective ammo consumption between the min and max.
Would depend on the whether the one on the left meets any break points for # of shots to kill that are more efficient than the one on the right.
Any tips on getting Don't stop me now with ogryn?
if i upgrade will the base rating go down to 341??
ok thx
It's not my favorite weapon but
380 modifiers is pog
Does mission difficulty affect the quality of gear you get from the emperor's gift?
or is it just random
It's random as far as I know.
do scrips or grims increase your chance at a reward?
No.
and have we found the best difficulty for grinding materials?
Whatever difficulty you can reliably complete quickly.
Plasteel is always the bottleneck and that doesn't really change the higher you go.
You just get more diamantine in higher difficulties.
so malice?
if plasteel doesn't change
wait I feel like plasteel does get more common the higher up you go
You could theoretically get more plasteel at higher difficulty, but it takes longer because you spend more time looking for it and enemy spawns are more numerous and faster paced.
So in the end the time tradeoff ends up being about the same.
everything is random
I crafted this. Is this a good weapon for zealot? I know Lacerate is supposed to be good. What perk should I roll? Is Block Efficiency bad?
well, its too late for you to pick perks because you already locked block eff, but i believe knife follows the standard goal of flak armor+ being the preferred perk.
Whats worth rerolling, unyielding or pox? I figure rerolling Pox
Thanks for answering! The other perk was sprint efficiency. Can I try out flak armour and then change it afterwards?
both are basically useless, but pox is probably slightly more useless because you'll already oneshot them. stub is usually used to clear out specialists/elites and stuff so flak or specialist or elites would be best. you'd want to test in meat grinder to find out what enemies you can almost onetap, and then adjust from there.
once you've rerolled 20 (? i think) times, the reroll becomes free and you can just spam reroll until you get what you want so yes.
ah nice thanks
not sure why they don't just let you select the perk once you have free reroll but oh well
^^
Excitedly checking the weekly vendor at reset each day just for it to be complete junk, for 5+ weeks now, with like 12,000 melk bucks saved up, is just getting so so old. There needs to be better item weighting, guaranteed rank 4-5 blessings and base item rating with higher weighting than the armory.
I got this available at melk, not sure if these blessings are any good. They LOOK funny, but I don't know how good the zealot maul is for applying stagger onto already-staggered things. I don't know how these specific blessings work at all, really.
skullcrusher is good, and you have a high rank of it, there are only 4 possible crusher blessings, and skullcrusher is the only one that isnt terrible
what does +1 wound actually do? i know that it gives you extra "bar" of hp, but whats the point? does it give you extra hp or is there another reason to want to have extra "bars" of hp?
Corruption damage. Every time you go down you are given a full pip of corruption damage, each pip being a "wound"
Higher difficulties strip you of one or more possible wounds.
They are essentially second chances and more of them means more safety. If you have corruption damage down to the final pip, you don't go down, you die.
It's the difference between instant death at half health or death at 33%, 25%, etc.
the short answer though is wounds are not good itemization, maybe if you could get +2 wounds from one relic. Best I can tell its usually best to stack toughness, as its your most renewable stat, stacking wounds is like planning around failure
^ basically that, too. It's stuck at a poor potency and not very economical. If you're carrying grimoires, though, it's generally safest on whoever has the most available wounds because of the corruption over time
It is a safety net
yeah, i see all those feats that give you various ways of replenishing toughness and wonder to myself: why would i want to get hp or wound, while i cant replenish those?
They're all %s. Ogryn, for example, has like 300 health base but only 100 toughness. Health is much more economical on them.
yeah the most succesful playstyle is to try and not let them get to your hp bar, and if they cant get to your hp bar, then you dont need a lot of wounds or hp
If you play perfectly you don't need any curios, but really that's not going to happen. It's just a way to try and cover your weaknesses.
ogryn should be good at stacking health, but they have like 5 different toughness regen and damage reduction mechanics, and theyre all percentage based, so higher base number of toughness on them, sadly works out better imo, same on zealot
That is true, it just takes more investment.
The way I see it, there's always going to be that time where you got sniped and lost your entire toughness bar and a good chunk of health, there's always going to be that time where you stub your toe on a lick of flame and lose your entire toughness bar. Ideally it doesn't happen, but health and wounds are better at covering those scenarios.
There's a lot of "what ifs" you can play around with but recognizing your own weaknesses and covering what you can with curios instead of just playing the mathematically/theoretically sound option can get a player further
Why would i bother stacking health on ogryn which isnt renewable when i can stack toughness which is easily renewed on ogryn and gets an even bigger renewal buff because ogryn has +% toughness recovered. My ogryn has 160+ toughness, i regen 32 toughness per heavy or more depending on weapon blessings with heavy attacks
Because melee attacks when you do not have 100% toughness slip through. Also everything else I posted.
If you have the curios and the playstyle to support them, go for it.
I'm not saying you have to build health.
The stagger ability and aoe of ogryn heavies counteracts getting hit and you cant regen health anyways. Losing a few points to chip now and then is astronomically more economical on higher difficulties than getting you toughness 2 tapped and then eating a 60 damage melee that you cant regenerate.
also health curios have higher value, so it ends up being almost 4 times more valuable than toughness.
You're starting to play with theoretical scenarios that are neither guaranteed or consistent. I really don't want to engage with that in a channel about asking questions about the game. :/
Theres nothing theoretical or inconsistent about the fact its better to take a little bit of chip now and then than trying to HP tank where you can maybe eat 10 hits or less on heresy or damnation and cant regenerate.
No one "tries to HP tank".
The concept of HP is there to act as insurance and a buffer to the run ending in case things do go wrong.
This includes situations outside of an individual player's control, such as the skill of one's squadmates.
Or the AI director's sadism.
And my argument is that stacking toughness which can be maintained easily with ogryns talent set will keep you alive longer than being able to eat a couple extra melees with HP.
The thing is, it won't make a difference in regards to taking melee damage.
Against ranged damage? Sure maybe.
But against toughness, the moment you take more than 1 melee hit you will receive chip damage bleedthrough.
It doesn't matter how high your toughness number goes.
Chip damage is miniscule compared to eating a full melee with no toughness.
don't be with no toughness then.
But chip damage is also inevitable.
In that scenario at least. Unless you expect to never take more than 1 melee hit in succession.
it does tho! thats the thing, more toughness and toughness regen talents keep it at chip dmg, lower toughness turns it into chunking hp
It's not that hard to maintain toughness as it stands, even without feats.
lower toughness turns it into chunking hp
Your overall amount of toughness makes minimal difference in that.
Melee chip damage is % based.
Irrelevant, as ogryns have 300 HP. You arent going to be dying from 30+ melees between heals unless youre just completely clueless.
I just find it a bit odd that toughness which is meant to mitigate ranged damage and primarily has effective mitigation against ranged damage is being proposed as the ideal way to also mitigate melee damage.
Your toughness takes more damage from melee than ranged. Melee hits will drain toughness faster.
If you're expecting to not die from being hit by melee, then you're also expecting not to get hit in melee at all.
At which point, it'd make more sense to insure that if you do get hit by melee it won't be a major detriment to your health which does not regenerate.
Rather than your toughness, which does.
Toughness is absolutely better at higher diffs, getting hit in melee is avoidable with dodge, push, stagger... ranged enemies have aimbot and destroy the default 100 toughness. Also all toughness talents are % based. I went from hating zealot to loving it after going from +300 health to 200 and 160 shield.
I dont even understand what your argument is supposed to be at this point. There is no rules that say toughness is only for ranged damage. Regenerating 32-50+ toughness on a 160+ bar per heavy attack is far more economical and sustainable at higher difficulties than getting your 100 toughness 1-2 tapped by a gunner and then eating a 50+ damage melee to your HP which cannot be regenerated.
Is this where I would post to find help doing a penance? ๐
Finding people probably the LFG chats, how they work maybe here or the class chats
kk thx
is this good to keep or should I try for a better one
it seems pretty good but Im bad
so who knows
bruh I'm about to spend all 3k of my melk tokens
on random rewards
last 3 days his shop has been poopy
Does anyone here know for sure if you can roll + Cooldown Reduction on curios? I know you can roll Combat Ability Regeneration but I've seen a couple sources say you can also get + Cooldown Reduction but I've yet to see it at all with rerolling.
does toughness regen speed (perk on curio) only affects natural regeneration (coherance) or all ways of regening toughness, like "30% toughness regen on warp charge gain" on psyker and such?
It only affects the delay before your toughness starts regenerating while in coherency.
I have never seen this in game. There are a couple of descriptions that are in the code but aren't realized in the game and this may be one of them.
Thank you, I really started like I was wasting my time when I didn't see that perk for over 30 mins of re-rolling and knew something was off.
make a short clip how you get all white items from the shop
Is this worth getting and upgrading?
yes
I heard that you can set the max corpses to 1 in a text file somewhere, could anyone tell me how to do that?
are these sword good? also, is "hitting at least 3 enemies" its effect, or its condition?
what's the highest base stats a weapon can have?
those have heinous single target damage and not much better cleave than the mk4
and 3 targets is the condition
380 iirc
thanks
whats the highest % roll on toughness blessing on curios? ive seen 15% so far, but ive seen 18% health curio. Can toughness roll 18 as well? or even higher?
The max health curio % blessing is 21%.
For toughness, it's 17%.
would anyone be willing to help me get a penace for my Zealot?
who is corruptor?
Corruptors are the single yellow eyed daemons that infect machines.
and in terms of this game? who do i need to throw my big box of hurt in the eye?
yes.
not the small ones on the ends of the tentacles, the big one, encased in a triangular metal frame.
Will my two blessings stack on top of each other?
hey guys, was wondering if i could find someone or a group that could help me with the psyker penance for basically solo'ing a boss with brain burst?
idk if this is the channel to ask
I'd be expecting white items
but the modifiers is what I'd be looking at.
But I mean I'm sitting on 3k melk tokens kinda just wanna full send randoms
because every item in my melk shop right now is at like 330ish on the modifiers.
and I already have 2 500+ lasguns, and with a little crafting luck I'll have a 3rd one when I get some more materials.
I would assume so yes
can anyone help me achieving a steam achievement? Gone Bowling
Are the missions on offer the same for everyone? Or do different players have different missions on offer
They are the same
dude the crafting material economy is aids.
Are you saying it was designed by a Nurgle cultist?
I'm saying both it and the engine were designed by an Age of Sigmar nurgle cultist
a 3060ti and I still can't stay above 60fps steadily with mostly medium settings
probably your cpu that is causing it, it's a cpu heavy game
also make sure you have dlss on
I like to think I have a decent cpu?
what is it?
i7-8700k shrug
yeah that ought to be fine, are you running it with raytracing on?
odd, I'm running above 100fps pretty much at all times except on hab drayko with 3070 and ryzen 5 3600x
all on high settings
hm
show me ur settings
lemme try to mimic them and see how I perform with i7-8700k and 3060ti
launcher settings
I'll try themn out after this match
you could also check Digital Foundry's video on Darktide and see if their options help you out
well yeah if you've not updated them since release
but I've never really tried uninstalling the old ones.
ah then it ought to be fine
if you make a clean install it should uninstall the old ones
no, but it does replace the old ones. It may cause some hic ups but nothing major and even that's pretty raree
I'll try reinstalling with the custom install option
I assume custom is the clean one?
in the custom selection there should be an option for 'clean install'
ok let me try that first
before I close out the game to clean install the driver
I got myself all 3 helbores at 500+
I said if I craft that bottom one to 500+ after grinding out the mats I'd spend my 3k melk tokens on mystery rewards XD
ok I did a custom install clean install @little coyote lets see if my shits fixed now
hopefully!
does rating have any positive benefits on it's own?
from the looks of things, upgrading just adds blessings/perks, but with some of the perks, looks more like base stat rolls are more important
This is correct. Base rating decides a weapon's stat modifiers. The closer to 380 (the current best) base rating, the better the item. Blessings and perks just add some extras.
I have noticed when I upgrade some weapons, the stats stay the same but the base rating decreases by 10 points. Why is that?
I have no idea. That's not happened to me (yet?).
ok, thanks for the info!
it certainly feels better on the mourningstar
lemme load up a mission
Nice!
ok so just redoing my drivers and running my normal settings @little coyote it's better but not near what u get
how to get this?
i don't have fren
huh, check if your cpu or gpu is running at 100%
you mean gpu utilization?
yeah
It's not often that we see a PC-focused game that really pushes the platform hard - but that's exactly what Warhammer 40K Darktide does - and its visual quality is astonishing. That quality comes at a cost though. Alex talks you through the game, how performance looks, and how best to optimise the settings for a good experience on mid-range hard...
try checking this out if the settings they show work better
GPU utilisation is really bad for darktide
If you want real low settings (beyond what you can tune in the options) you can try some config files
the performance overlay I used in the mission I was around 65% gpu uti and 50something cpu uti @little coyote
This is all the Alt R menu shows me
lemme open task
Not to sound dumb because I'm still a novice at all this
but should I restart my pc after that driver update @little coyote
Quick question, if I have two purple curios and one blue curio, is it more sensible to just upgrade the blue first? Since all of them just add on one single new perk of presumably equal value?
I haven't tested load yet
You do realise i saw those pings right
imma test out your settings first
@serene latch You alright? lol
my head hurts like a truck
ofc
Any reason on the ping then?
Hey so real quick before I go back to performance testing my settings lol
what is the highest Blessing roll you cna get on a curio?
I got 2 80 rolls.
Are those good? Like 80s.
yeah, those should be pretty much the max.
only if their first perk is to your liking.
We can reroll perks eventually
Getting a good perk number is better than a good perk imo
only one of three. no point in wasting mats if the very first perk is already sub-par.
wym only one of 3?
Those are perks, sorry I meant
we can reroll blessings
eventually
ah. well, i'm not sure it applies to these blessings. gotta wait and see how fatsharks'll do it.
I'd imagine they'd do it the same way they reroll perks
I see no point in reinventing the wheel
Just keep your current perk/blessing value and then reroll the actual perk/blessing
yes, but still, until it's out, i'd abstain from investing resources in it.
ideally you'd find any good curio from emprah gift, and then insert a top tier blessing in it.
I rarely every get gifts from the emperor
but will it work like that? only one way to find out.
80 on the very first thing
to my knowledge it is, yes. but you better wait for other answers too.
If anyone can confirm this that'd be great. : D
how come my new characters never find anybody to play with in quick play compared to my maxed ones is there a system in play here that was told to us?
it tries to find players who are similar level
@little coyote in my task manager my cpu uti was around like 74%
and my gpu % was like around 5% on task manager but reading around 60 to 70% on nvidia performance ovelray
On all cores?
idk what u mean exactly
are all of these boxes filled in similar fashion
stamina curios actually only increases stamina by +1 even if it's 2 or 3, that being said I would not recommend having more stamina as opposed to more hp or toughness
Well what I'm getting at is
we can reroll our blessings eventually
so I'm more concerned with the number value rather than the current blessing
well if it's anything like the current perk reroll
you'd be able to roll lower and higher tiers too
but I get what you're saying
mine doesn't look like this.
@little coyote
personally I'm looking to buy three +3 stamina anyways for the memes
Perk rerolling doesn't go backwards
or forwards
it does
it only gives you a perk of equal %
right click on it and change the graph to logical processors
I've rerolled hundreds of curios and not a single one has gone backwards or forwards
that's false I've rerolled from tier 3 to tier 4 and back again several times
hmm but I was rerolling weapons
maybe you're right and curios is different
do I gotta run another mission or just tell you the current value? lol
just see if the cores are utilized all together instead of just a couple for instance
how can I tell
if the graphs all look similar instead of one or two at high usage when others are used barely at all
This is what I see rn
in the hub?
might wanna test a mission as well if those two (CPU 2 and CPU 9) are utilised more heavily than others, then the cpu you have doesn't do multi core performance too well so that might be the reason for lower fps
just swapped chars and loaded back into the hub and now it looks like this.
honestly the very often look pretty similar with minor differences
I lied after closer looks it does look like 2 and 9 are more used than others.
so then you might want to lower your cpu heavy settings, but all in all DT is very cpu heavy game with a lot of stuff going on at once so I'm not sure how much better it can get
they discuss that in this video a bit
Well after updating my drivers and putting on your settings I hit around normally 74 to 80ish frames pretty often
on malice and heresy+
yeah
it's weird man
in mission they all look pretty same
2 is a little higher but yeah.
sometimes tho 2 also lines up with the others
Is there a breakdown of how much a secondary objective multiplies (if at all) your diamantine/plasteel takes at the end of missions?
^Is a level 2 special condition w/ a secondary objective objective better than a regular level 3?
Secondary objectives do not increase your crafting material amount at the end of missions. The level difficulty influences how much plasteel and diamantine spawn while how many of them are picked up by your team determines how much you get at the end of a mission.
Anyone know if Crucian Roulette (5% crit chance for each empty chamber in your weapon) applies to an automatic weapon? if so thats really broken right?
whats the purpose of those green lines under mission image?
Highest difficulty you have completed for that mission.
ah okk thanks
Supposedly it is only available on Headhunter Autogun and Quickdraw Stub Revolver.
are there still a majority of things "coming soon" like crafting and respecking weaps?
yep
RIP and also thank you
Hey guys, I am having issues with matchmaking, not seeing even one rando player on any difficulty, is there any fix for this?
Use a vpn and look in another region
is it possible for players to exclude someone from the team ?
or is there hacks like that ? or admins playing the game ? I have been ejected from a run, just a few seconds earlier, one of the players stops mooving during 10sec and then, I was in the lobby and impossible to get back in this run
hey, just a quickie
for flawless execurion I need to not be downed, right? So, questions are as follows
- Does that also includes everyone on my team? Cause getting mixed responses on other places
- Getting netted and saved, dogged and saved, mutied, but still not getting downed resets the counter?
deaths of other players are irrelevant. getting caught doesn't break the chain, only falling into the red health disable.
disconnects also don't break the chain.
also it only counts missions where you were from the very start, the ready screen. you may hotjoin a mission amid the chain, and it will not count for the penance, but it might break the chain if you die there.
i have a 15-chain frame, so tested these things myself.
recommend doing it on zealot, if you're confident enough in your faith, because he has a built-in failure prevention passive.
thats my main tho, and thx for clarifying
You were vote kicked from the mission.
Are they gonna remove level similar matchmaking itโll hurt those that come back in 6 months imo
So I know this isnโt the place to ask but
I havenโt really updated my thermal paste for my cpu in a hot minute
I got some ok like 12 carat diamond thermal paste
Would that be worth applying?
in regards to the pennance "make every shot count"
would using a shotgun for this pennance be ideal? as in, each shot is able to hit multiple targets so firing into a crowd would allow for more than 100% accuracy? or does the game consider every pellet as a bullet and such would make the pennance impossible?
As long as one of the pellets hit something
but collaterals dont count?
you canโt get more than 100%
each shot is a hit or not no matter how many pellets hit different enemies
someone know how to get Zola's hair? Is the one I use for my vet and Psyker but I don't see it on Preacher.
Is this where i go to ask for help?
What is the highest gear score you have seen?
What exacty are the poxbursters mechanics, I know about the shove and dodge but it only seems to work for me half the time.
shove dodge and slide
whats the strat for damnation assassinations
ive been trying the medipack and go melee strat with pugs
but 1 in 2 times we wipe
don't dump the medipack right away, think it gets destroyed when the boss does the shield explosion attack or whatever
but mostly it's just burst damage and good dodge sliding
Do chainswords only work like half the time on purpose or is that just a skill issue
you mean the rev?
it does sometimes fail to activate, i haven't found a reason why.
the swinging itself works without any issues, however.
Don't immediately drop the medipack. Everyone needs to have a way to mitigate the hordes the spawn. You can't ignore them. You need to thin them or have someone hold them. If specials spawn like on the chasm station assassination, you must have someone capable of eliminating them immediately that isn't the person holding aggro on the boss.
yeah, maybe, i cant really figure it out either. its hard to tell when i'm actually doing special damage or not sometimes without the 'glory kill' thing playing
The medipack can't be destroyed. But what often happens is the shield blast sends people away from the medipack if they aren't placed thoughtfully.
The boss will only hurt players if the players aren't paying attention or don't know his moveset. The more realistic sources of damage will be from hordes and specials during the fight.
Gotcha thank you
Why's the trinket inside the gun 
The skin was extensively tested for quality assurance before being pushed into the live build.
So hey does anyone know the max blessing value you can get on curious
is it 80?
I asked this earlier and didn't really get a super clear answer.
Highest i've seen
same
someone earlier also said they believe that's the max
what kind of guns are really good for veteran now ๐ ?
Not very risky and it's pretty easy to do. Look up a legit guide and just rewatch until you understand it and then give it a go.
well I mean in my BIOS settings I can just flick on something called EZ OC which is just easy overclock
I'm just worried about melting my shit, never tampered with OC
What's your GPU
Yeah you're fine to try overclocking you're safe af
overclocking my CPU?
why?
Oh yeah so cpu is a different story
cause it's easier and less risky
You do have to do it through bios but I would recommend not using the auto tool
So don't use this setting?
for the "get x amount of y kills of z enemies" contract, do kills your teammates do count toward my contract? i was in a mission and got the contract completion pop up while i wasn't doing anything
Nah I wouldn't
So you'd suggest using the bios? But not the ez option?
i7-8700k
You sure? I was hoping to use it to push out slightly better performance in darktide
darktide is around 80ish fps? Sorta?
Mmm
Do U dip under 60
Personally I don't think you'd need to overclock the cpu but if you haven't done your GPU then definitely sort that out
If you're seriously interested, start googling and youtubing until you've figured out what you need to do for your specific hardware
You'll work it out! Not much more I can do to help 
Yes.
Does the Perk for '+8% Weakspot Damaged' get calculated into the tables as shown here?
If it doesn't, then sick. It breaks the Flak breakpoint of 300 per ammo.
If it does, then sadness.
there would've been many such fans, if we'd've been able to install holo sights.
The sights on the MKIII variant of the helbore aren't bad
yes it's iron sights, but it's a much more clear style than the I and II variants
yes, but incidentally it's the least useful of the three, a major overkill for most targets, slow, small mag.
I've actually been loving it
1 shotting pretty much every special in heresy or higher
2 shotting any of the ogryns besides crusher
i think it can oneshot a crusher with a crit, if the build is tailored for it.
but it's hardly worth the investment.
yeah, that stamina crit feat is a must for lucii.
oh no not that feat, I mean I have that feat but
I meant the aiming down sight increase crit a bunch blessing
ah, right. well, they contradict each other to a degree, since you can't aim for long, stamina runs out.
but still a good blessing, to be sure.
Are any of the full auto Autoguns good?
Hey everyone! I finished doing my Gunslinger Psyker 101 guide. Also contains general gameplay tips for any class. Go check it out if you are interested! https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2904458225

this a good curio ?
no.

hi!
Do we know when the lights off modifier will come back? I'm waiting to introduce my friends ๐
I wish that every mission rotation had a lights out
Whats the ideal rating on a weapon for lower rarities to potentially craft into 500+ transcendants?
well 380 is the highest rating a white rarity can have so you could calculate it from there when most perks and blessings are 15-30(?) rating
ty that helps enough
blessings are 25-35-45-55 per tier.
so you can take a 380 weapon, luck out with both t4 perks for it for 430, and still have 480/490 weapon with bad blessing rolls.
until the crafting is released, at least.
does it look good?
no. but it's still a power sword, so it will carry.
is this truly an upgrade? not sure how much i should care about can opener, the blessings combo on the new one seems better, also more ammo reserves on the new one
could someone help me to test my new headset i wanna test the noise recuction
doesn't look like an upgrade at all.
anybody willing to lend me a hand with friends will be friends penance?
for ogryn, stay within coherency for a full mission
should i level this up or wait for another
DOES THE Shop scale with current gear? or is it just random
it scales with current level
The only factor that affects weapon rating range is character level.
When refining a perk, does the original perk level limit the new perk level? I have been refining a curio for 20 minutes and have only seen level 1 and 2 perks. Are 3s and 4s really that rare?
There shouldn't be any limits. Though if you've only seen levels 1 and 2 after 20 minutes, I'd ask what the base rating of the weapon and what your character level is.
It's a on a blue curio with +1 wounds (42 rating). I am level 30
Ah, thought it was a weapon. For curios the base rating of the blessing does seem to affect the max range.
Try it on a curio with a base of 60 to 70 or more.
Ahh ok! That explains why I have seen +1 wound blessings with different ratings.
Thank you for the guidance!
Anyone that can explain the damage % ?
both weapons says 16, but in game both do around 30 on a one tap
is there anyone that wanna help me with "make every shot count" penance I'm gonna rip my hair out soon
Inspect weapon in inventory -> Hover over the burn stat bar
Cloud radius may also factor into it.
Is there any circumstance where a autopistol/laspistol is useful @ uprising+ ?
or is it just a meme weapon?
any idea for the blessing here? saw my first grey 380 with dam 80% so i went all the way
bloodletter seems meh
I feel like I'm having performance issues in darktide and I'm not sure what to make of it?
I'm running 16gb ram, i7-8700k cpu, and 3060ti gpu.
In my experience, no.
You'll need to lower your graphics settings.
Lower ragdoll count and such as well.
Idk if it's gpu or cpu related tho.
Because I'm playing medium/high settings.
Well, Darktide recommends a GeForce RTX 3060 and an i7-9700k.
Just compare them to what you have.
idk the game just feels weird sometimes it runs better than other times
for no reason
I just closed and reset my game and now it feels better already
Obviously there will be more strain on your system the longer the game runs.
it's not longevity
Like when I started it earlier today it felt like poopoo
then I finally closed and restarted it just now and it feels fine
Are you getting frame drops?
Stuttering?
What else do you have running besides DT?
just some microsoft edge tabs
set threads to match the cores/cpu count?
you mean worker threads?
yup
hm
it was defaulted to 9
when I closed and restarted the game I DID swap it from 9 to 10
playing on 10 right now
how many cores do you have?
2. pending windows updates. or patches that appear during long playing games (superstition - I make sure they're compelted)
set to 6
will do after this mission
turn off bloom, volumetric, incresae FOV, set Resolution to match your display&native-video
fullscreen (not borderless)
framecap it .. (6turn off fidelety, sharpen, antialias)
turn off Nvidia LowLatency(I think that tries to set a buffer, but if you're high framerate, it will still block there. So rely on framecap)
dial everything down except blood/impact decals(I like them)
good luck
I just did a heresy assassination on my current settings after the restart where I set my worker cores to 10, It performed way better than the heresy missions I did earlier
I'll try out your settings now
so you're saying lowlatency could be hurting my frames? I have it on Enabled + Boost right now
I just reset and set my worker cores to 6 now too.
Is there a trick for getting this to work? Two missions I know we've killed hundreds of them..
If you're uysing Nvidia, it has a feature to buffer frames.
- but it's for 'momentary bursts'
- if you graphicscard can't handle the 120fps anyway, it's a buffer that will fill up regardless.
- throttle it at the source (prevent game from generating 120fps) so there is no bottleneck downstream
consistent low-FPS is better than unexpected pauses.
use Nviudia if you want to - but rely on FrameCap
what you've killed probably wasn't scab. it was either dregs, or generic dudes (hordes aren't affiliated with either). it's a slow contract in general, because there's just aren't that many melee scabs.
so the best trick is probably play zealot, rush all the shooter blobs and chop them to bits.
or just have such a zealot in your team, because these contracts count everyone's kills.
Or they have the weekly mission progress bug.
sometimes whatever you've done during the mission just fails to count, yes.
but the important part is that even when it does, the progress is still slow.
the ghost blessing, "immune to ranged attack" mean I won't take any damage even if hit by gun/flamer?
Is AMD Ryzen 5 2500U good enough? Because, I have everything set in low settings and I still disconnect when I join in a match. ๐
If i refine a perk on an item while it only has 1 perk, will the 2nd perk that comes after consecrating automatically be locked?
tested on a different item, the answer is yes
is heavy recon lasgun only availible to sharpshooter?
no, all three dakkatran models are for both vet and psyker.
bruh my issue is that i crash roughly 2-3 times a match and im running a 9 5900x with a rx 6800xt i wanna know how to limit the crashes at least cause not much be working
so how ado i fix that if anyone has a proper fix to like entirely stop the crashes or help me slow the amount i get
i got my graphic settings to either low or off and numbers as low as can go, worker count down to i think 10 threads, no raytracing well all off in game anyway, fps capped at 60 im trying amd fsr 1.0 now did use all the amd fsr2.0 modes before hand
i did as much as i could i pulled back to steady drivers/updated them i did have some oc but went back to default just in case but same still happened
hmm not sure what to suggest if you have the game capped to a point its no longer stressing your hardware then maybe you have corrupt file somewhere
yea so on steam anyway i had verified it a few times and done 2 reinstalls i wish i had a working version of darktide
the first reinstall worked for a bit then after a few hours it started its usual
tbh it might be worth running some stress tests and a ram test to rule out hardware then you can remove it from the list of potential causes
at least it would set your mind at ease for hardware
so what am i looking for in these stress tests
its the same rabbit hole of testing overclocks, prime95 or OCCT can youtube or google stress test memory / stress test cpu
ah yea aight so basically just the norm till something happens to the system
pretty much you want it to be able to run without failing if you do get errors then you have stability issues but its all situational on what you consider stable
true that
well thanks for some guidance i will go and do some tests and see if anything happens
yea sorry i dont have any hard answers best advice i got is just what i would do and at least have peace of mind for my system
Howdy. I would like some help with the heavyweight champion penance
Got my first 380 gear piece today! Don't know if it's trash or not but it's my trash and I'm proud of it.
The game doesnโt close after I quit game in Steam. I have to use task manager to shut down steam for it to stop running. What can I do to fix this.
Nvm found out thatโs permanent there is no fix to that.
Perfect, that explains everything, thank you
useless perk but good blessing and great stats, you can always reroll the perk to something better though
iโd consecrate to purple and see what the second perk is and if itโs good then youโre in business to just reroll the 20% carapace
(20% x 0 = 0)
2nd perk turned out to be +1 stamina while weapon active. Wish I'd known before I started rerolling that instead of the carapace damage.
Max hp and toughness on curio is 20% ?
HP is 21, toughness is 17
stamina is better than carapace anyway
either way, get +flak to get oneshot bp on troopers in volley
bodyshots
Scriptures make a wind whooshing noise confirmed
Yeah, I fucked up.
you might get the stalker bodyshot BP too with opening salvo but maybe not with that SP roll
try to replace it with an mg12 with either +flak or +maniacs as base at some point
so you can get both
Can anyone help me get the Malleus Monstronum Penance? I can help with other penances too afterwards
is Deathblow just better by ignoring all the enemy hit mass?
or am I missing something here
Yea because perfect strike requires you to get a crit which is harder to do consistently than just hitting the weakspot which for like 90% of the enemies is da head
how do you get drip
Does force sword really have unlimited dodge?
tier 2 blessing kinda goofy
If my Primary and Secondary have sprint efficiency do they stack? Also are they passive perks meaning i dont have to have them out to get the buff?
Pretty sure no to both
lame i remember seeing some buffs that say something along the lines of (while active)
made me assume that the ones with out "while active" text is passive
has anyone ever gotten a perfect base stat weapon?
i haven't seen any screen shots of one
hmm ok
the highest rating i seen on a grey was 370
cuz i've only seen 385s and i've gotten 3 380s
man all this time i wanted 80% mobility on my characters both weapons thats lame
anything over 380 is a visual bug
funny blessings
it is?
Ok so
How do people play Psyker?
I'm level 10 with the class at this point and i don't feel any stronger
I'm max rank with Ogryn and Vet, rank 24 with Zealot, but Psyker just feels so weak
Ogryn has crowd clear, suppression and staying power of doom
Veteran just murders everything and Zealot has his moments
Or is it "Wait until flame staff"?
BB is trash without the 6-3 ability and yes you need the staves
Like I tried the lightning staff but it can barely kill poxwalkers in difficulty 2 and not even in Difficulty 3
the blast staff at least staggers stuff into oblivion and doesn't have a limit like lightning does
and flamethrower i don't have yet
you aren't supposed to use that against horde enemies
so lightning is a short range single target weapon?
? no
this blessing, +2 on what? damage of the gun?
It stuns every non-boss enemy in the game, does high armored damage and is decent or good against most elites/specials. It is also very useful for stunning gunner packs, even behind cover and also kills scab gunners very effectively.
And it's not short-range when it can chain to targets further away
I did not realise chaining was a thing lol
Since when i used it on hordes it would just get stuck on the front targets (Which were probably dead at that point)
@versed trail surge staff ccs and is really effective at killing anything with flak or carapace armor
@versed trail use your melee on hordes once you max peril
Small question
Does "Rating" actually matter
Does anyone get any problems with error 2001/2006 every match?
I can get into games but they are so slow and I always crash eventually (Normally after saying "I'm gonna crash")
Hey folks. I'm making a game tracker for myself so I can track stats of various things. Anyone happen to have a list of special map conditions currently available?
You forgot low intensity and high intensity. ๐
What?
it's more enemies in waves or less
Yeah. But its a special condition that is applicable for additional bonuses.
it's still a map condition
Thanks for the not help, eSky.
low vis, lights out, dogs, high intensity and low intensity
low visibility is the fog one which is the rarest
Thank you for the actual help.
np
You have a GTX card by chance?
No, I do not believe I do
What kind of card do you have?
Uhhh, a nvidia 2070 rtx i believe
for Curio +1 wound is applied to guns also?
So is there a bug that makes Deamonhosts not make any noise?
I just walked into one, but when I thought I was deaf I saw the rest of the team right behind me (aka they would've woken it up if i wasn't the first one)
Nvm. Thereโs people in other forums that have problems with err 2001 but they have gtx cards. Probably the reason this game was released for new gen consoles only. Those that experienced err 2001 also experienced err 2006. Official forums will show devs are already aware of the problem. No future fixes announced.
Anybody have a Corsair HS80 headset? Trying to figure out how to configure audio settings so it doesn't sound like it's underwater
wound = how many times you can go down
those "bars" on your health
yeah kinda
i think if you got 2 bars
means you got 2 lifes
ohhh wish obese tuna would have like pop up bars on these things in game
and you can go down once, and then you die
I'm only lvl 24 with Psyker, playing at lvl 3 missions.
But to me, Psyker feels very versatile. And especially good at crowd control and elite killing.
Force Sword is really good at pushing a lot of enemies at once. And later you can do that without consuming stamina. So you can stay alive in crowds and create space or block passages for the team. (And similar to a chain sword or force sword, you can charge it to take out heavier enemies. A bit risky because you let your blocks down, but worth it in a pinch)
Brain burst is really nice to take out armoured enemies. You don't need more than 2 bursts at level 3 missions, and most stuff goes down in one. Remember that you only need line of sight to start the brain burst. So it's also nice against snipers: Peak out of cover, get a lock, and dodge back.
I really like the Voidstrike staff. Light modes' projecticales are slow but accurate, and comparable to autoguns in damage.. And the charged mode hits more like grenades, staggering hordes and doing quite a bit of damage. Really fun and effective to use. And the staff not needing ammo is an indirect 30% ammo buff for your team.
I have a tendency to just "overheat" all the time
That gets better depending on gear. And even at 100% you have some time left to react. Also remember that your "F" halves your peril. It's kind of like an emergency vent button.
In my experience I was just really inefficient at cutting down anything, especially when there's a Veteran close by or Ogryn already handling crowds
You should be able to fire 2 brain bursts before reaching 100%, later it's closer to 3. Just don't overdo your staff use if your team is already handling stuff.
I suppose that might be somewhere where my issue is
Veterans with volley fire obliterate rows of Elites before i can even get my bb to get off, Ogryn has his extreme survivability and crowd control and Zealot can massively buff toughness damage reduction
Similar to Vermintide, you don't have to do everything. Your main job imho is to kill armored elites and push waves. That really helps to keep your team from getting overwhelmed.
And a psyker is imho very helpful in most situations. If the Veteran is able to take down shooters, that's good. But you can step in if the veteran is not available or busy. Same with Ogryn hitting crowds. And for most tasks, two folk doing them is better than one.
Is Level 15 good enough to try heresy difficulty?
Also the psyker is imho more ... consistent? The Veteran imho relies heavily on grenades, ammunition and volley fire being up. So he can be quite ... bursty. Like an entire bolter magazine DOES damage. So do grenades. But they are limited and regenerate quite slowly, imho.
By comparison, a Psyker is less bursty. But he also won't run out of resources, and he can use peril for whatever is needed most in the current situation. Heavy staff to blast hordes, pop heavies' heads, push and slice at hordes for ages. Not flashy, but ... steady.
Level 30 Veterans can keep volley fire up quite a while and Autoguns deal immense damage while having a way better ammo economy
They have a feat at rank 30 that increases weakpoint damage by 25% and just resets the duration of volley fire if they kill a single elite or enemy with a gun
During the whole thing the cooldown already started so you might be able to just reactivate it right away or just wait a couple of seconds
I mean sure, Carapace is an issue but Zealots and Ogryns have some weapons against those (Axes, Thunder hammer, Power maul etc)
does salvo mean just the first bullet or the full burst?
@versed trail I haven't been playing veteran at lvl 30 a lot, but I feel the class is more ... specialized depending on weapon loadout and build. Kantrael lasguns or bolters are really nice to take out specialists and shooters, but they are not optimal against hordes. Autoguns or recon lasguns shred hordes, but taking out specialists and elites becomes more of an issue. Also longer weapon swap times and reloading tends to get in the way of things.
And the Veterans' close combat weapons are nice (both chain sword and power sword). But other classes stuff works better imho at crowd control. At least I struggle with being overwhelmed by larger crowds. Running out of stamina is an issue.
Personally, I feel the Veteran can be really good at what he builds to do. But to me, he feels less allrounderish than the Psyker.
"Autoguns or recon lasguns shred hordes,"
Are they still effective @ Heresy+?
Even Dregs soak up so many hits from tacticalAxes and Blades. Will ~ 40-60hits cut it?
So, Salvo means 'however long it takes for recoil to fully reset'.
Same is true of melee weapons with 'attack chains'.
If you wait long enough that your next attack is a repeat of the last(first in the chain) then you're doing chains of one.
if im new and level 5...i pretty much just quick play / random missions to level up to 30?
Is it worth keeping this to try and upgrade?
70 games @ T1 will get you there.
34 games @ T5 will .. get you killed.
50 games @ T3 will ... also get you killed if you're a newbie.
Recommend
- T1 @ lvl1-10
- T2 @ lvl 11-25
- T3 @ lvl 26-30
As a non-Vermintide player.. this is accurate.
Going in under-skilled will get you killed in a couple of mins and p*ss off your teammates... (I did that)
Thank you that is very helpful lol. I've been doing mostly T1, but just did a T2 and made it through pretty easily. But my teammates also seemed pretty good / a higher level (~15) so maybe I was just carried.
anyone got advice on how to do the Shapshooters make every shot count challenge?
Cool, just have fun.
I feel like the default lvl is "30".
The level comes fast enough ... just remember to watch the shop .. and an eye out for:
- Diamantine/Plasteel drops in the game.
What should I be looking for to buy in the shop?
Whatever you want - except laspistols,autopistols.
Consider your role:
- crowd-control/swarms/horde
- long-range 'surgeon', gunners,snipers,elites
- boss-killer/specials-killer nuke.
You'll end up performing 2 out of the three. Your choice/preference.
Consider your melee/ranged to perform one of each.
Your teammates will pick up the slack or fill the gaps.
By lvl 8, you'll have more money than you need.
Don't hoard 'emperors gifts' if you hate the weapon,,, discard/sell it.
Items with high 'base ratings' is good, The theoretical max is 380, but you won't see them till later levels.
modifiers are not bad but that blessing is tier 1
The use less ammo is a good blessing? Also is there a โtier listโ I can view to know if itโs a good blessing or not?
Also unfortunately the second perk i got on that weapon is 8% damage to pox walkers (yikes)
it is a good blessing, just could be better with the tier
you can refine it
True. Though I heard carapace damage is also kinda mid
lasgun does 0 damage to carapace armor so 20%*0 = 0 bonus damage
perks have tier too
Lucius does okay afaik? Particularly if charged weakspot critting.
yeah but every other archetype plinks off and the picture was of a mgxii
Not much Rending you can get on Lasguns either.
3 bots so dumb they wander off and do not follow. Excellent work.
:"< what is the best build (blessing, perk, etc,..) for Shovel in ingame ? I'm tired of power sword
Bot AI breaks completely when one of them is down
this worth buying ?
God, probably.
Swap Curio Chance for 5% Max HP (or Block Efficiency).
i need help, i dont know how to get him to release my teammate
When is the next update?
hopefully, next week? or the week after that.
Does anyone notice a significant difference between high stability braced autos and low stability ones?
is something like the blaze away blessing (Up to +2% Power while shooting) noticeable or is 2% extremely negligible
Does anyone have any good suggestions other than the camo feat for veteran and playing in low intensity, on how to beat the "On Overwatch" penance?
has the fog and lights out mission conditions been removed from the game? literally haven't seen them since dogs were introduced.
got 160+ hours and am yet to play a lights out and I really want to experience it
camo, low intencity, pocket ogryn with rumbler and a cleaver
did it like that for a friend first try
fog destroyed perfomance for a lot of players. Lights out - fun mode, but to many people complained, so, I would assume they are turned off atm
that's a shame, I guessed fog was removed for performance issues, but couldn't find anything written
if only there was a way to create a custom match and choose what mission I want to play and which modifiers were active >.<
Thanks for that Sufferot!
I had fun with lights out a lot. A lot of things change when there is no clear vision, and even malice run were pretty tight. But a lot of people complained that "I can't see anything!" (hich is the whole point, I assume, of that mode). Also it was fun seeing a poxwalker horde's eyes in the dark once in a while
I played one of those missions. One. As an ogryn with no duct-taped light
and fog, well... It tanked my pretty bad rig from 70 soli FPS to something like 20-30 median. So, no surprise about fog
you ask for a flashlight. I run every single one of them with flamer and eviscerator, and never had any problems
Yes, we are not the same
Iโm sure I would get used to it in timeโฆ but it definitely changes the game
Would be better if I knew the maps better
that's the reason I want it, even with how familiar with all the maps I am now, being pitch black would change it drastically
it does, which was really cool how differntly everything plays when you can't be prepared for everything and need to instantly react
also, surprise backstab from a mauler with his overhead never gets old 
Thatโs one thing FS actually did improve from VT2 imo. I can finally hear the backstab sound
the sound effects are definitely improved from VT2, as an IB main, I relied on my gromril armour exploding to hint that something hit me
looking for a group to clear Just a Flesh Wound
what you need is not a group, but a low intensity chasm assassination on the mission board.
and then probably try in #vox-lfg channel of your area.
Is there a menu or something in-game that lets us know what we did to get certain portrait frames etc?
Or are there some frames that the game just won't tell us how we got them?
you can try scrutinizing the 'penances' tab. it should contain everything.
what the different between scab and dreg?
Could anyone help me get the Pick n Mix and/or Going Out With A Bang Penances? I can help with yours too afterwards
Dregs wear orange/yellow rags. Scabs wear gray helmets
Those usually refer to the packs of gunners. Often they will have an elite Gunner or Shotgunner as a sergeant.
so dregs are rag with normal ammo while scab use lasgun?
I think so, yes
alright thanks
What confuses me is that I associate them backwards.
Me, wrong: โthe Dregs of the Imperium must be traitor Guardsman. Scabs must be Nurgle cultistsโ
Nope, itโs the other way around ๐คฆ๐ปโโ๏ธ
ye, had the same problem. the mnemonics i used to get them right is 'the word scab implies a hard shell over the wound, i.e. armoured, military opponents'.
Can anyone here help me and my mate get this penance? We need an extra, its hard with only 2 people
@tepid skiff in UK scab is someone who works despite an ongoing strike. So could be related to being a "traitor". Can't say I've ever heard the term related to 40k though.
pick n mix is rng based. For bang you need 4 coordinated guys. Can try to help later, if you will still need
oh, didn't know that meaning. nice.
Is there any reason to choose a mission that has higher enemy count? It doesn't look like you get any bonuses
Or the dog sitrep either
The bonus exp and docket payout at the end is the same so long as there is a modifier of any kind.
Doesn't matter whether the modifier makes it easier or harder.
Does Crusher's smash bypass a block?
It was hectic.. but I feel it does.
no, it just hits hard, and eats a lot of stamina
do scriptures disappear when you die?
Nope, they're dropped on the floor. Only grimoires are lost on death
ty
Pro tip: I don't think you get partial credit for the grims, so if one of you dies and someones holding onto one still, tell them to select it then destroy it so everybody doesn't take the health penalty anymore/you have a free slot for medipack/ammo crate
is there a reason to pick up Grimoires besides for Melk?
Are Macros supported/permitted?
yeah go buck wild
the inner tranquility and spiritual satiation of a job done to its fullest
so it doesn't influence chances of getting a gift or anything. this is importnat.
no idea, but I wouldn't guess that would be the case based on statistics collected about emperor's gifts thus far
which is that you get them essentially at random up to a weekly cap, then no mas para usted
ah, weekly cap, interesting
just another fun way of keeping you playing without telling you how the deck is stacked :^) a fun little trick on the player! tricked ya!
tripping over skinner boxes
Hey, does anyone have any tips for completing the โno melee damageโ penance? Like, I refuse to just sit back and be dead weight to my team and even if I did, mutants or hounds like to pick off stragglers, so Iโm just genuinely at a loss for what to do
For veteran, not sure if any other classes have that penance
I did it with friends, and then attempted it specifically on the Aegis Station and Consignment Yard missions in Low Intensity, using Camo Expert and making it my job to specifically target shooters/ranged enemies. took about 3 attempts with 1 random on the team.
Oh thatโs a good idea I didnโt even think about camp expert
๐ It's practically tailor made, just stop dancing and ensure you're in coherancy and you'll RARELY get attacked unless there's no other option
there's something DEEPLY funny about watching 9-10 guys and a rager run literally right past you to head to somoene else. "Okay."
That just seems like such a bad way for that to happen lol. Like in a horde shooter thatโs a weird penance but I can see where it fits with the โsharpshooterโ aspect of the class ig
I need help for the "going out with a bang" penance
Which one is that?
Psykerk, on malice or + kill 3 elite with warp explosion
idealy an Ogryn with shield to hold enough elite / special
That seems pretty easy in theory. My recommendation would be to try it on malice with high intensity since the high intensity will also spawn a higher volume of elites
Yep I know, but with random player I had no luck
I've asked nicely but never worked, everything die too soon
I would help you but My ogryn character is a level 1 /:
and since we can't do solo private game I'm forced to bring someone with me XD
At lvl 1 you don't even have the shiled right ? need more lvl to unlock it I think
This is all about luck. Just keep running malice missions with bots. It'll line up for you. The best combo is 3x ravagers since bots kill them slowly.
Bot get replaced with player before entering the fighting area everytime
Would anyone be free to help me get two penances done with the Veteran? (no melee damage and prefect accuracy?
New patch when?
My bet is late January.
How often do I need to reroll a perk until it becomes free? And what is the max cost?
can anyone help a brotha out with malleus monstronum challenge? Losing my mind trying it solo lol
Thx
don't even care about an actual patch at this point, just unlock re-bless already for fuck's sake
I can't find low level players to play with me ๐ฅฒ so playing alone with bots is pretty meh. what level you guys think I can try malice?
Lvl 3, Iโm not joking Malice is actually pretty casual Iโve done 3 characters just doing malice as soon as I unlock it
so is it true On Overwatch achievement can be obtained if a person is in "Waiting to be rescue" status as long they are not hit by a melee?
if I finished the weekly contracts - can i 'reset it' for another set?
whats the highest base rating?
Just create a group in the VOX channel for your platform and put a group together.
380
but ive got weapons that have 385?
The base rating of the weapon cannot go above 380, but there are rounding errors/visual bugs that can make it appear to be higher. If you manually do the math, you'll find the actual number is still 380.
I assume by base rating you are refering to the number in the "Modifiers" section of the weapon. i.e. where the stat bars are.
And not the power rating which includes perks and blessings.
ya im talking about the number in modifiers section
anyone know if when a weapon perk says "+20% damage xyz" does that mean it does more damage to enemies who have that type of armour somewhere on their body or does it mean when you hit with that weapon a body part that isnt covered with armour
for example if i had a weapon with 20% extra damage flak and hit one of the scab melee enemies in the chest i would likely get it right
but would i get the bonus upon hitting his unarmoured head
if i had both unarmoured and flak would i get both?

I am very confused. this is either a zealot wearing new psyker coat or psyker wearing zealot mask
either that or the new psyker mask is bugged?
is there a spreadsheet somewhere, listing all the best substats to look out for for each weapon?
sorry for the noob question but for the plasma gun is there a detriment to discharging the heat given the outline effects when doing so that look like blood?
it costs life when venting via the weapon special button or the auto vent at 100% heat
if a blessing says it stacks, how do I know how many stacks are currently active?
can anyone tell me how cleave targets bonus on a non-sweeping single target weapon works?
pls help. am lvl 30 psyker and ogryn needing loadout advice
why do ppl have 2 wounds? seems redic
This is called a reused asset. You are being sold the same cosmetic on different classes.
Cleave targets only comes into play if your attack manages to hit more than one target with its swing.
There is no strictly "single target" attack. Only attack patterns more likely or less likely to hit multiple enemies.
This is why the Antax Mk V combat axe is so popular because despite having a "single target" moveset, it has diagonal swipes that can hit multiple enemies due to the angle.
As far as I know unless there's a UI icon in the lower left next to your coherency buff icon and other such things, there is no way to know how many stacks of a buff you have.
yeah but as you can see below, the asset "sold" is different to the one on that actually given lol
Oh I see now, sorry I'm not familiar with their cosmetics so I thought you were talking about two different ones.
That's likely one of many visual bugs that Fatshark didn't notice.
ah yeah probably ๐
Many of the cosmetics have gaps, clipping, and missing textures.
There's quite a few documented in the forum's bug reports section.
ah i see
Running two +1 wounds curios is something some players choose to do because it can provide insurance against the variable skill level of their squadmates or their concerns about their own ability to stay alive. It can also simply be a safeguard against the randomness of the AI director that can sometimes fuck you over in high difficulty missions.
what im saying is the strongest player only have 2 wounds.
and they have weps that can clear a room. what loadouts do these ppl have
other ppl sprint through the map. what loadout is that?
the sprintiest weapon is usually knife.
it is extremely agile, with long dodges, instant acceleration, huge sprint speed, great stamina efficiency, etc.
buddy, you're asking if you should use a shovel. you already know the answer is "yes" regardless.
looks fun though.
if someone has 4 or more health segments i better see them go down at least 3 times between medicaes
question
for 100% accuracy achievment, if I use the lawbringer shotgun, does only 1 BB need to hit for it to count, or would I need to hit every single BB
because I found a shotgun with 14% ammo stat and thats gonna make the veteran achievment wildly easier if it works
Quick. is the Vraks MKIII the heavy one?
No, this is the light one. Three shot burst.
Okay then it's alright but not perfect. Opening Salvo is a lot less eye opening.
Why?
good re-blessing candidate though.
if not why bring wounds
Don't think I've seen this blessing all that often
Shit. That might actually be insane.
100% Rending (assuming it works additively with itself) means attacking against unarmoured completely on any armoured targets.
Which incidentally completely negates the usefulness of the Penetration value on the weapon.
If nothing else, keep that thing to strip the blessing and rebless it on to another weapon without a penetration stat.
Yeah, saw it on Melk and grabbed it
Is there a way to make toggle aim down sights (ADS)? I'm already tired to hold to aim.
i have an axe like that and I have no idea how to activate its power
one-shot enemies means something like 1-hit killing hordes is my guess
but i'm not noticing a damage increase on other mobs for 5 seconds after i kill 5 poxwalkers
yeah i have no idea what the conditions for activation are
((Ah I can't post the image, basically was a pic showing what the Green Chevrons were under the mission thumbnails in the Atoma Map. They denote what missions that character your using has done and at what level
((Surprised at the sheer amount of people who don't know about it
is the bonus DR to specific units from curios additive or multiplicative?

Base stats are a hidden value that most of us aren't aware of without either digging through the code, or a lot of testing. In this video today, we talk about the base stats of each class...
Good info, have a good day ๐ค ๐
I accidently bought an armour set, but only intended to buy the upper body. How do I get a refund? Do I ask steam or fatshark=
Does picking up the grim and dropping it still count towards the weekly?
Does Holy Fervour stack for every stack of Martyrdom?
How much damage does bleed afflict?
is Heavyweight Champ ever going to happen naturally or does it require setup?
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
it's been the only penance left for me for weeks
across all characters
I've not been able to do it solo
I heard chasm terminus on damnation is a good map to do it on, haven't tried that yet
No
Bleed affects different enemies differently, test on meat grinder to see it
Hi! Hoping for some recs to get my ~5yr old laptop performing a bit better. I'm dropping to like 5fps on big hordes and I'm pretty much a drag to play with probably. I am indeed running on the lowest settings. Dell g7 laptop with a 1060, 32gb ram, cooling pad, all drivers/bios up to date. Running on a 3440x1440 monitor out of the HDMI. Specifically asking:
-Are hyperthreading and virtualization better for Darktide? Normally its something I have turned off for freelance work on this computer. I tried enabling it and honestly it feels worse.
-any other bios settings recommended to help out here?
In game, what have you turned things like worker threads down to? I believe default is 12 which is way too high for you
if you want better performance lower that res. thats way too high for a 1060
play at 1080p
checking!
Yeah and def get off 1440
word word, ty
I have never had it happen naturally. When I got it (Heresy) we had to kite a few ogyrns until we found six. Another method that I have seen work is to have two players stay at the first drop down with their shields up and have the other two players run as deep into the level as they can. Any mobs they aggro will run to the two players at the start of the level after they die.
Better I am guessing since you are playing haha
Haha I changed it and ran around the lobby a bit before a break from work for lunch. That already felt better though, Iโll report back tonight when I have a bit to get on!
I have been seeing more frequent mentions of the Agri Autoguns, but which version are people usually referring to/using?
all my psykers have nothing but autoguns in the shops.
- they're really trying to get me to go gun-psyker
anyone got advice on how to do the "make every shot count" penence?
As in cheesing it?
either or
cause not missing a shot with the janky connection issues and ghost bullets
doesn't exactly inspire confidence that they even playtested this penence
play normally till the end of the mission, where you need to extract (metalfab restarting is the best for that)
ask people to wait for you to do penance
shoot all but 1 bullet
close the game via task manager or by pressing "X" in taskbar
restart, reconnect
DO NOT MISS, YOU HAVE 1 CHANCE
extract
enjoy your penance
hope explained good enough
Wow, that really works? Lol
Plasma gun means you have to fire your weapon fewer times to empty it
if you are doing it legitly
does anyone know if block effeciency on curios effects your "block" during a revive?
yes
Does "repeated hit" require you to hit the same target or will this work while slashing through a horde?
I'd assume it's the same target, although a crit can hit multiple enemies ofc so it's still alright
I think they usually use "Chained Hit" when it doesn't matter which target you hit, although FS may very well have made an oopsie too
only goes up to 25% on purple above right ?
The highest level of that perk at level 4 is +25%.
Well, i usually use my melee to deal with hordes and they tend to die in one slash so if it requires you to hit the same target you will not build stacks
do grimoirs and scriptures have set spawn locations or can they appear anywhere on the map?
Generally there will be certain areas that have random script/grim spawns, they're usually never present at defense objectives for instance
I say generally, the dust maps can be a bit weird with the placement sometimes
There are set spawns, but it's random which one will be used
does toughness regen speed decrease the amount of time it takes for toughness to begin regenerating or just the rate at which it regens once it starts?
is it possible for a map with "find 3 scriptures" to only spawn 1 or 2 scriptures, or did we just not look hard enough?
it's currently bugged and does nothing, but iirc it's supposed to reduce the regen start delay
Not sure if this is the correct channel to ask. For weapon/gun rating does it work somewhat similar to VT2?
For example I buy a item with 400 rating, does that mean my next shop I would have a higher chance of seeing 401 etc? Or is it a complete RNG crapshoot?
it's based off what you've received in inventory level may play into it as well, but basically plateaus until you're in the 300-380 base range, anything over 380 base is glitched usually
I guess due to some undocumented bug, theoretically it could prevent a spawn. But my guess is that you missed it, they are not always in plain sight and require you to take a detour into some obscure part of the map.
IIRC there is one map where the first one is basically right at the beginning of the level. Here is a guide https://darktide.gameslantern.com/grimoires-scriptures
what are considered maniacs in the game?
The elite enemies that run at you like a maniac and maybe run away when needed
And donโt have heavy visible heavy armor
Thanks
Which perk should I reroll?
I'm 99% sure it's stamina, but I've been wrong with common sense before in this game
yea stamina, the infested at least helps chop through hordes a touch quicker
I joined a few games, where I spawn through the floor and fall to my death
how to fix?
Do weapon skins unlocked on one character unlock them for all?
anyone got the app that guy created that allows you to check the shop offline?
you can try searching browser extensions (both chrome-family and ff) for 'armoury exchange', and install from there. or join their discord, https://discord.gg/d6JdVCxSsV, and see extensive instructions there in pins, with all the bonus stuff.
perks are disappointing no matter what, but maniacs is probably more useful. slapping flamers and muties in melee happens quite often. i mean, likewise with poxwalkers, but they'll die anyway one way or another.
If an attack breaks through your guard, does it do damage? Like blocking a plague ogryn overhead with 2 bars of stamina
I didn't know health curios drop above 20% HP
Yus, you can also get blessings that will give you +4-5% health
I wonder, by duration do they mean the amount of seconds/ticks you spend spraying, or the number of bullets sprayed?
If it's by time, then it doesn't mesh that well with any high fire-rate weapons
god I'd love an autopistol like that though
A salvo ends when your recoil resets.
I wouldn't if only because the la feels so ineffectual.
with 330 base it's only worth it as a leveling test sample.
kant4 itself is a decent gun, if you don't mind clicking a lot very fast. the problem is, it doesn't offer anything kant12 doesn't do twice as good.
ok I need to know
are public lobbies for heresy just that bad
or is it me
am I the terrible one
i just ran into the first legit toxic player on a t4 mission today (after 146hr) so prob just a bad day to play with the mission rotations
