I load it up and am either dropped into a team thats in the process of wiping or a team that has the coordination of three cats in a bag
Anyone up for helping me with Ogryn penance?
do you know if friendly fire hit marker count for the marked for death penance ? or if you hit ennemy carapace (blue hit) ?
Pretty sure a blue marker counts as a “Miss”
void shield hits are also blue, but they're hits.
while hits on teammates and bulwark shields are considered misses, afaik.
it's been 2 time now I've completed a mission without any ammo and I was pretty sure to not have missed once (only reg/white/blue ennemy hit)
Ok, so it's the bulwark that fucked up my 2 run then
don't forget that reconnect trick still works.
^this
you are sure about that ?
pretty sure, since there were no major patches since i got this penance via reconnect.
waste most ammo, alt + f4, rejoin, hit the rest until zero, don't switch to ranged even after you get more ammo from passive.
so what, empty everything but one at the end / alt+f4 / reco and blast the last shot on an heretic and that's it ?
easier to do on assassination, boss void shield is really hard to miss.
Also remember to swap to your primary
that's really a shame to have to do this not legit because the penance is so f stupid
if it counted overpen as 100%+, it would be fine. fun, even.
ok guys I'll try, If it work I will still have the satisfaction to have done it twice "legit" before.
like in payday you can get 150%+ accuracy with nade launcher.
i just saw 2 players in a mission with nurgle themed player portraits, how would i get that unlocked?
dreg kills specifically, i think.
this one ?
if not then it's this one
Which mobs are considered as unyielding?
The fleshy bits on ogryn, and the beast of nurgle
So, here's a question, the autopistol can get Pinning Fire and supposedly has area stagger on a kill, a level 4 Pinning Fire seems like it could easily reach +100% power
Anyone got an autopistol like that, and does it actually make it usable?
Sweet thanks I forgot they were there aha
Hey, I do have a dumb question. If and when fighting a Daemon host, is there any proper way to fighting it other than "Hold right click and dodge backwards and pray your teammates kill it"?
(Before ye say, I know one isnt MEANT to fight a Daemon Host. I'm asking in case of contingency)
Only an ogryn with the shield special and a tank build zealot can hold an DH long enough
Right.
And if you're attacking it, it's just a "Shoot centre mass"?
Or melee centre mass.
As a vet I try to shoot the head as it's an weak point
Aye
but the best thing is when I'm with the thunderhammer with mt zaelot
this thing melt everything
and tank build psyker. much easier than zealot, too.
blocking into overheat is pretty busted.
what level should i generally be to start doing heresy?
If you have 95% success rate on malice
Try heresy
It’s a lot less forgiving though especially since it removes 1 wound
I started heresy on my veteran at level 20
When a blessing says "+x% power for n seconds on hit. Stacks y times", does that mean it stacks to a cap of +xy% power, with the final stack starting again at n seconds?
Or does the timer not reset when stacks get added...?
Or worst, only the timer stacks and it's still +x% the whole way?
in theory, it's that percentage for each stack, with each stack expiring after y amount of time
in practice, take a wild guess! fatshark sure did
if you find a blessing that actually works as written and as intended, please alert the community
Which Perk do I replace? Or is it worth it?
Probably the ranged keep unarmoured its a crowd clear machine.
So this is my first time getting something that has a higher rating but seems worse? Am i missing something?
mk v vs mk i
Ah okay, thanks
Higher rated modifiers and blessing on Columnus. Also different gun models, check rate of fire on Columnus vs Agripinaa
what is this icon next to some missions?
I'd like to add to that.
What are these two?
nothing
Greebles / okudagrams
holysht, those are real words.
Does this mean it'll only hit 1 target / 1 extra target / 0.96% dmg to second target?
Congratulations on your future Scrabble championship win 🤣
So is there any point in doing Damnation runs beyond the challenge and maybe slightly more plasteel/diamantine? Weapon rewards seem to be completely random so you might as well just farm Sedition runs right?
More money in one mission I guess?
knowing you did the best you could and internal pride and satisfaction :^)
I spent 40+ mins barely managing to do Hab Dreko on Damnation and got nothing out of it. Then did a quick 12min Sedition assassination run and got a legendary weapon...
Is it just me or is the helmet too high?
Well that’s just the bad rng system
the RNG in this game is brutally unfun
I have 144hrs and ive still never gotten a Power Sword for my vet
If only there was some sort of… guaranteed gray weapons… 🤔
*useable * power sword i should say lol
Or some sort of… weapon stat improvement system…
this is the only one ive seen
I think what you meant to say was "engaging, with plenty of room for long-term play, and many possible options"
:^)

not to worry, just grind a little more for those mats and trust the system, you will get there I promise
it's not like I've played almost 450 hours, most of which were of vet, and I still haven't seen a single PS above 370 nor have I ever seen a power cycler blessing, even after spending I have no idea how many mats upgrading swords from the store
:^) working as intended
in a few months, then again in a few years, there are going to be different shades of darktide players
the ones who played consistently through the betas, into and through release until the game systems become tolerable I am going to mentally sort into the "either incredibly patient, enduring" or "brain damaged" buckets
I consider myself in the "beaten wife syndrome" bucket
is the max stamina on a curio 3 or 4 i have only seen 3's in the shop
terrible blessing level,(1)
mimimum penetration
FS 😦
- don't have the 'sideswing' of the claw
- don't have the base damage of chainsaw
- fastest nuke/strike but with Peril
anti-elite but rubbish crowd control.
Suggested changes?
????? I have 10, whats the problem 
Power Fencing Foil
changed the ranged crit chance to flak
DarkTide pushing full game to the server
Finally got good Emperor's gift. Gold hammer for my zealot. 333 base stat, great blessings. I would love to have those blessings on my 360 base stat hammer. If only there was a way to transfer blessings or modify them... OH WAIT. xD
Any idea if this option in my display settings might bump up my frames a little?
Is that possible atm cause I can't find anything to mess with the 5 stats a weapon has, unless im misreading ya.
flak or carapce armor dmg on boltgun?
is there something I'm doing wrong? I used to get blackout missions periodically, are they disabled or am I doing something wrong?
I heard it’s recommended to keep that on
For any game
Windows 10 for sure. Not sure about windows 11
are those perk and blessing good?
does benediction (zealot's lvl 15 feat) apply dmg reduction only to allies in coherency or do you benefit as well?
it applies to anyone, yourself include, in coherence
This seems like a good base to work with
can someone halp me with the power sword above pls? ^
Everyone, including you benefits if you're in coherency. It's the only acceptable choice at that talent level.
Roll off the crit for flak armor damage but otherwise it's decent. Power Cycler is the god tier blessing on that one.
so gotta pray for a weapon with power cycler on it, or wait for rebless? 😄
Mhm. Doubles the duration of the charge which dramatically increases your DPS.\
Good luck ever seeing it though. It's a Tier 4 blessing. Those things are stupid rare.
anyone able to help me do t5 ogryn penance
brutal momentum is kind of redundant since the power sword has pretty good cleave (powered up), rampage is ok but the best blessings would be power cycler and supercharge (i think maybe, the +1 - 3 energize)
What exactly does the Cleave Targets stat mean? If I roll a 1.03x on it, does that mean it'll only hit on other person? Would it be the same as 1.99x?
It means you'll be able to cleave through 3% more hit mass than the base states of the weapon allows.
The other one would be 99% more.
Ah so it's tied to hit mass instead of just body count? Thanks
Body count doesn't matter usually. It's all about hit mass.
Pretty convoluted fatshark 😡
Body count matters for stuff like "hit 3 targets"
Does that mean Brutal Momentum gives infinite cleave when procced
No, it just gives everything the minimum amount of hit mass.
Lets you cleave through 10 ogryn the same way you do to 10 groaners.
Nice, thanks. Appreciate it 👍
I wonder how much that stat would make a difference in the Mk5 axe with BM then
Not much.
i see, thanks
Guys,can some sharpshooter give me some help to unlock the on overwatch achievement? I'v been trying for days
camo feat, and that's about it?
people say that having a friend to cover your ass also helps, but i don't find that highly realistic.
i have helped someone got theirs in pub on a low-intensity raid mission (consignment yard) as zealot, so holla if you need
Max field of view, hug walls, hold block when you’re moving around, play selfishly. Don’t use guns that require sustained fire as that opens you up to backstabs.
If you want to do it legit, I bet there are ways to cheese it
dodge slide like there's no tomorrow
braced auto gun was the easiest for me to do it with it's great stagger
MK VIII to be specific
Thanks, I'll give it a shot
does the trick where you jump and die and then finish the mission still works?
Has anyone tested whether the curio damage resistances even work?
why wouldn't they?
I was looking at the damage taken code and couldn't find how they are applied, so just wondering. Not like the game doesn't have many other mechanics that don't
Jump of a ledge at the beginning and never get revived. It's how I did it along with complete a mission with no health damage
Ok,i'll ask to don't revive me
you have to complete the mission or you can you lose?
it's not like completing a malice run as 3 is a problem. just gotta find something to do for 25 minutes.
Complete it I believe
ye,i just tried and it dinìt pop up
Maybe they patched the exploit
maybe later i'll join the vc ans ask for help,i'm just tired at this point
Don't know who might find this useful but TIL Medipack deploy functions the same as block shove
How much does the small/large plasteel give you when you pick them up?
Depends on mission difficulty. I have only really played on T3/4/5
If I had to roughly guess based on what my team ends up picking up (these are by no means definite numbers):
T3 -
Small Plas = 8
Large Plas = 15
T4 -
Small Plas = 10
Large Plas = 18
T5 -
Small Plas = 15
Large Plas = 25
I get these numbers by dividing my typical haul of plasteel by the average number of small/large pickups we get through a run that I tend to notice (an average of 12-15 of a mix between the two). Not the most solid statistics but I'm sure gets really close
terrifying barrage?
what about it?
Is it possible to mod a weapons stat modifiers?
No
Ouch, alright bit of a shame
Does anyone know if trying to get On Overwatch penance, if my toughness/shield gets meleed does it prohibit me from getting the penance/cosmetic? or is it health damage only by melee? trying to figure this out
Another question, for toughness and melee bleedthrough, does the toughness have to be at 100% or just 100
i know ragers at least damage health through toughness
there are conflicting opinions, but i'm pretty sure that on the run when i got it, i missed 2 incoming hits. so likely health only.
100%.
So its ok if my shield/toughness gets hit but not my health?
well, you should avoid it regardless, just to be sure. but chances are, it won't invalidate automatically.
sucks they didnt add trackers to these to make us more aware, esspecilly the ones that require shooting things
Makes me wonder what the point of vets toughness is
other wise i wouldnt need to ask, i would just go in and find out lol
one of the nastiest things that cancel the penance is a dog pounce. even when landing on a nearby teammate, it might deal some splash via 1 health damage.
so dogs and muties are top avoidance priority on these runs.
what about corruption, I didn't get hit but received corruption
to be able to tank 4 times as much ranged fire as the entire team combined, and recover it in chunks of hundred at a time.
i.e. to be de-facto immune to damage and carry hard.
I suppose but considering how often melee mooks sneak up on ya.
well, even vet gotta have some problems in this game.
All the classes have problems, they’re called “Penances”
true, but aside from those.
The Psyker ones I dread the most
ye, some of those are not easy.
I mean the one where you gotta deal 90% with a brain burst is easy enough with an ogryn shield
but the "get 6 fatties in one charge on ogryn" one is one of the worst, probably.
It’s turning yourself into a fucking nuke that is gonna suck
Oh yeah THATS gonna suck hard
ranged elites are easier to get via self-nuke. they have less health.
and often come in clumps of like 4 shotgunners.
I see
hey new player here whats the best way i level up just spamming quickplay?
pretty much. at lvl 15 or so you may try 3rd difficulty, preferrably starting with the special condition 'low intensity'. it both makes the map easier AND grants bonus xp.
bet
ok so i asked someone who had it, they said you cannon take damage by melee At All, that includes your toughness/shield
now all i need is a good team and a good map
I did it using laspistol, so I could weave in and out of trouble
do i just keep getting the highest power gear from the shop or do i save my cash?
don't bother saving, just keep spending to make the level up grind easier
once you hit 30 you're going to be swimming in dockets
I have to say, very cool update
in the mission select screen some of them have bright glowing green arrow things under them with different amounts of chevrons
what do those mean
What difficulty you've completed it on
oh ok cool
what about the special attack for axes that's just an uppercut, what does that actually do
what are the weak spots on enemy's? and how do i use secondary function on my weapon lmao or is it just right mouse click?
Remember, if it has a head, that’s usually the weak spot
More damage & impact to armored enemies. To see details, <Inspect Weapon> -> <View AttackBreakdowns> -> click on the attack icon below “Special Action”
Ye “secondary action” is right-click. I had it confused with “Special Action”, bound to Mouse-5 by default
Stuff like turning on the flashlights taped to the guns is “Special Action”
Does anyone know if they've changed the veteran 100% accuracy penance? On reddit they say the ammo you get back from the passive by killing elites doesn't count, but I think thats not true anymore. I've stopped shooting after reaching 0/0 on plasma rifle, I had a hitmarker on every shot before that, then just meeled for the rest of the game never equipping the gun, but I didn't get it. I also finished it later again with 0/0 on extraction but it didn't work yet again, probably because I joined after the game started..
had the same problem
good to know I'm not insane, it sucks that they made this penance even worse
agreed
Is infernus still good on recon lasgun on malice and above ?
The highest +toughness per Curio is Blessing 17% Perk 5%?
bc of the way toughness works with the chip damage and stuff is it even worth stacking toughness?
What is the consensus on veteran curios? I typically use the lasgun cus am a lasgun hoe with the mkV combat axe with brutal momentum as my playstyle.
Does anyone know the max stamina on a curio. I have only ever seen +3. Yet darkmass says +4
there are conflicting opinions on that, but basically your toughness gets removed in flat numbers, but regained in percents. so if you have 120 vs 100 toughness, yes, you will still get chipped a lot, but you will also get it 20% faster from any source, be that coherence, kills, feats, whatnot.
so it's a noticeable difference, and having a good toughness curio is never a wrong move.
except when ogryn, who has health 3 times higher than toughness, plus health curios grant more %, so you should really play to your strengths there.
(but that is likewise just an opinion, some people stack touhgness on ogryns and do perfectly fine)
kinda wondering if I'm stacking too much toughness on my vet, I'm wearing 16/4, 15/4, and 17 lol
really have no concept of how useful other things are in comparison
ye, i also run all toughness for 300+ total. having to much fun being immune to damage while ulting.
assassination targets, flamers and other things that nullify toughness are unpleasant with it.
question for psykers with purgatus staffs: does the Burn stat ever reach 15 stacks or is 14 the max even at 80?
15 stacks at 76
It is +3 right now, we changed it back on the site
Can anyone help with the "heavyweight champion" penance?
how do you destroy grims again?
take em out and hold left click
k thanks
Exiting game to windows and restart fixed that for me.
does the stat "% combat ability regeneration" basically mean the character skill cooldown reduction?
I got a question about Zealots toughness damage reduction aura and Ogryn's passive -20% damage taken
If a Zealot takes the feat that increases the reduction to -22%, does Ogryn get -42% toughness damage or is multiplicative?
can you change your voice?
Nope, it's baked in at character creation, sadly
What is bleed through damage?
rerolling a perk keeps the tier the same, right?
Without context I assume they're talking about melee damaging that hits your health through toughness
How?
Whatever percent toughness you have only reduces melee damage by that amount, with the rest hitting through health. So if something hits you for 10 damage and you're at 90/100 toughness, you take 1 health damage. If you're at 180/200 toughness, you still take 1 health damage
Ranged damage is always fully absorbed through
Yay I wad the 5th player in a team and got no fucking rewards for my 30 minutes
Yay obese megalodon
@fluid iris thank you I’ve been passing up 3 stamina curios sadly but won’t be now.
I switched from all toughness to at least one "+1 wound". Two wounds is often not enough if you play public damnation runs.
Thx
5th player?
Hi, I have a little question guys, if i unistall the game, do i lost my characters? or they are saved on steam?
I don't think steam ever deletes save games when you uninstall
@red bronze some games get 5 and 6 players including a bot and whoever is slotted as 5th or 6th gets nothing from the mission the end screen just skips straight to loading to mourningstar
Ive made some bots very rich expect to see them in baller clothes soon.
I opened game and was greeted by 2 mk V combat axes.
one with 74% penetration and 183dmg
another with 53% pen but whopping 208dmg with +20% to carapace
I know karskins fall already with one hit
is there some sort of ranged dmg reduction on kill target's ion shield? it seems to take no dmg from plasma, but power sword has no problem busting through it...
Yes, basically don't bother shooting it
No shooting the overshield? 😅
It's usually a waste of ammo and might see you with an empty mag whenever any specials spawn to help the boss
Characters are server side
ok thx!
I’ve had to wipe all DT files and stop Steam sync to fix a key binding bug twice now (Steam sync actually brought the bug back for me)
Side note DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BIND [] KEYS!!!
Not sure if the is is the right channel, but are all the classes really balanced or is there a “best” carry class? i’ve read the veteran is the best but not sure if that’s accurate/up to date
if you're looking to carry through kills, then both zealot and veteran can do it
which is better depends on your gear and playstyle
strategies for dealing with bulwarks or groups of ragers, they are my bane
Did my first few heresy runs and I can feel the difference in difficulty atm. Got two penance done (dead eye and on overwatch) so I'm hoping to somehow get make every shot count done
Thanks for the reply I'll see about putting more toughness on since I have 3 Stam, 20% hp then like 15% toughness curios
in terms of winning a map when nothing about your team is guaranteed, zealot is the best due to its dodge stats allowing it to survive basically anything
in terms of actually being useful to your team, zealot damage is extremely position dependent
so if you can depend on some level of peel, vet is far better at clearing the screen consistently
Depends on your weapon system and class
Bulwarks leave an opening on their left side after their swing, so let them wind up and dodge left
Alternatively, have someone get their attention then turn them 180 degrees, exposing their rear to the group
Any knife with <Lacerate> or <Flesh-Tearer> blessings will produce stagger on bleed application (even through the shield while doing no damage) eventually causing them to drop their guard briefly
Psykers with lightning staff can shock them to produce the same result
Ragers have a long attack pattern that leave them vulnerable to ranged attacks
Let them start swinging then dodge backwards and blast them, or use heavy attacks in between their swings
Or, you attack them with high stagger melee weapons (i.e. Antax Mk V Combat Axe) before they start swinging, and chain stagger them to death
You can also stun or knock them down with grenades and abilities
Certainly there are more ways to open them up for assault (explosive barrels?) but those are the first things that come to mind
I think they should buff the shotgun
by removing that cringe ass alt fire round that just makes all your pellets shoot horizontally
and replacing it with like you load a Dragon's breath round that shoots big cone of flame
or an explosive round
In the meatgrinder, is there a way to toggle some of the enemies to attack?
you'd think so given that there's a medkit, but no
when melk asks me to kill x amount of y enemies "in melee", does he mean "in melee range using any weapon", or "using melee weapon"?
melee weapon
it counts the kills of the whole team, mind.
but the amount of scabs in melee is rather low, so this contract usually takes around 10 missions or so.
whats the best map to farm dregs?
Is there any way to know if a mission will have Dregs vs Scabs?
He's not asking you to do anything. Just play missions. Your teammates will take care of it for you. Anyone's kills count as everyone's kills.
Missions will always have both. It doesn't matter which mission you choose.
Hey guys, I have this issue with the game.
it seems like i'm connected to the servers but i can't for the life of me find other players for the past week.
You play on gamepass ?
You're just the beta tester for single private matches 😂
Honestly, right now is just anti-gamer hours
Many gamers are asleep
I mean I couldn't get into a single game all week
And I usually find players at this hour
I'd blame my Internet but I can play other games just fine
I dont know, there are players, I cant even ever play alone on a mission. VPN or localisation problem ?
I don't have a VPN on
Are the mystery acquisitions any good or should I just be waiting to get lucky with the limited time acquisitions?
I get a decent lasgun from a mystery acquisition once but it wasn't the variant I liked
The slow rate/high damage one
random as the other things proposed, so.... lottery
don't use mystery
Mysteries are only really "fine" if you want lots of higher tier greys fast
You'll still get other colours tho
Makes sense. I only ask because I have 5k melek coin and still haven't seen anything good in his limited time stuff.
I'd just wait tbh
Hell, i sit here playing all 4 classes which means that my progress on strong builds is sloooowww
i wish you could progress Zealot etc objectives with other classes
Need help getting the on overwatch penance for the shooter class. Any one be willing to help?
Anyone willing to carry me trought the 20 minute heresy Preacher Penance?
hi, anyone that wants to do som achivments?
Anyone needing help with penances join strike team 33
hi, just wondering if anyone knows at what level path of trust chapter 2 is completed?
Question: if one of Melk's quests is to finish secondary objectives on a certain level, but that level only has primary objectives, does completing that level count towards the quest? Or do I have to wait for that level to spawn with secondary objectives?
It has to have secondaries. Always reroll those quests.
hi im lfg to help me get going out with a bang if anyone can assist
how does stamina regeneration bonus on trinket works exactly?
Yeah so do mysteries guarantee higher weapon modifier rolls?
Cuz im trying to push for near 380s
I saw this in Penance, does the mission exist right now or no?
It does not.
Hi, is there any info pinned about homeworld class
choices and what they impact ?
Choosing Cadian gets you a voice option.
Feel free to pinthis. It's a comprehensive list.
I also noticed on Ogre Cadia gives you two additional eye color options
low level = more scabs
hordes are always scabs
Also gives the veteran a different voice option
they're still adding a lot of extra lines on their current voice rosters.
Nobody's gonna beat Male Loose Cannon x
My fave dialog comes from PsykerLoner(male and female):
- "forshortened" lifespan .. what . no not "four shortened " lifespan ... not FOUR..
- the air is bitter and dry.... I empathize.
- ah to be in the militarum.. go there .. do nothing .. die.
- with great responsbility .. comes the chance of dying ... ALONE.
mine's that one time the veteran actually guessed a codename correct
I think he guessed Traxis-12
The Zealot: "doomed" voiceline is a nod to a famous signature catchphrase of a character from an archaic comedy "Dad's Army" (clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V7NlFWh7Sz8")
HELP: **does anyone else's game suddenly lag when a horde **spawns?
I thought it was my graphics card ... but it lags even when it spawns "off-screen."
Atrox Mk IV Tactical Axe, 20 Carapace and +4% crit chance. Which to reroll?
I'd like to say it does, though my PC is ass so I can't really tell if it's the game or my PC
I'm a n00b, but they're both pretty meh? (lvl2?)
You could save it for other weaponse - but if you have diamantine to spare...
- I use combat axes - so up to Malice, I can oneshot dregs/scabs.
- So I would chase an Elite bonus or Maniac or Infested
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/weapon-perks
But, you use a Tactical - so ... dunno, you miught need the crit bonus to oneshot the horde
It depends what you use the axe for: horde clearing? or elite takedown.
who are unyelding enemies?
Hello do you know which mission see which map is which difficulty is the best to farm the plasteel ? thanks
thanks 
so mystery boxes from scammer melk... are they worth it?
if u got nothing u want, its ok trying to get a random weap for good base stats
lfg of 3 kind strangers to run a malice to get me on overwatch
LFG I'm new the game and would love if someone could show me the ropes lol
So am I
@drifting linden my launcher settings, should I change anything? 3060ti i7-8700k
I'll boot the game up then and show ya
im sorry, what?
Thats just fatshark bein dumb
I'll post the other settings once I load in
No rush
Only thing that really sticks out to me is fog. I run mine on low since I find it chugs frames. Maybe see if anything you have set to balanced can be set to performance instead. Global illumination could go down too. My buddy has a more hardcore pc than me and even he chugs frames whenever lights go off in this gams
Uhm
Also lemme copy and paste something my buddy sent me
You need to go into the games files and manually turn off a lot of things that way too. Its the only way to actually turn off ray tracing
Everyone in my group did this to get the game to run better
honestly looks about the same what i have set up i have global illumination set down a bit more and frames capped to 60 otherwise we're almost identical in settings
wrong tag sorry lol
@dapper robin
I found unlimited frames is more stable than trying to cap at 60 for some reason
Even when I was on a toaster
I dont have access to the game right now, what does it say when you put your mouse over it
Oh I can turn it on, I just have it off because someoen said I should
I think I have them both set to either off or 2 set to performance
I can do enabled or enabled+boost
I know for sure when I had a 1060ti I had both of them at off
I think on my new card I have 2 where I said tho
I also had skin sub surfacing off on my old rig
I like skin sub surfacing so I'll try to leave that on as long as possible.
When you wearin the sleeveless Catachan top
Maybe turn the ragdolls down a little bit? Its not as fun to cleave nurges but it will help
What does it say when you put your mouse over it? The description?
Im pretty sure i have that off
So those settings you're friend was messing with in the files
are all only Ray tracing related?
Yeah
ok let me do that
I honestly have no idea what ray tracing is but I probably don't give af about it
Even if you turn rt off in the in game settings they stay on in the actual game files
Ray tracing is light and reflections in game
So like light will hit a model and make it look really nice
But you have a million nurgle in front of you, you dont have time to really smell the roses and enjoy the lighting
Like I said in general, rt is cool in single player open world games but in a shooter I dont care about light rays
And in your files if one of the Rt_ says "high" change it to "low"
And make sure to hit save before you exit out of the notepad
one sec
Ok I went into the notepad and adjusted those too, lemme reboot the game now and see if shits any better afterall we did
Should be, hopefully
Its not the hordes that mess with me in this game. Its anytime lights start going off
is the store rating influenced by both weapon slots? or just whichever weapon is highest?
Whichever weapon is highest
perfect, thanks
k i didnt think so but this is my first time hearing it from someone lol thanks
so far not sure
still looks like around 70ish?
maybe a little more consistent? Playing a normal heresy mission on Throneside
eh looks more like 65ish
In my mind as long as you arent sub 60 its good
Idk I could just be expecting more
because I'm not noticing any dramatic difference from a 1060ti to a 3060ti
which I feel like honestly I should be
Is there a resource that one can use to find out which, if any, of the weekly store's wares are the most useful?
Kinda wild tbh that with an i7-8700k and a 3060ti with everything on low and optional stuff turned off
can't even get 120fps in the hub
How do I ignore bullets harder?
This is a run and gun vet
The gunner resists are nice until you realize it is only gunners and reapers and not dreg/scab shooters dreg/scab shotgunners which is like 60% of the ranged mobs
I wished gunner resist encompassed all enemies with firearms
But in its current state you're better off rolling +5% toughness in place of gunner resist, covers more bases
none of it
devs confirmed somewhere that the only thing that determines the rating of items in the shops is your trust level
How is the Damage so high?!
Would you use this at Heresy level?
why does the standard autogun suck such an incredible amount of ass? It's damn near useless when compared to the braced or precision versions
What do you mean? Infantry autoguns (mostly agriipina) are literally the most reliable out of the three
Idk luck? It’s pretty much a god roll power sword imo
Do you know how melee damage are distributed on robustness and health ?
right, that's some plain heresy happening here, besmirching the glory of infantry autoguns.
argi mk1 especially.
just some stats for you guys, good day!!!
New player here. do i just use whatever till Lvl 30? and then find good stuff?
How do I increase the modifier stat rolls? I'm still seeing 280-310 in the shops and rarely see something breaking 355. I have a few pieces of 360-370 stuff in my inventory
check hourly
so no way to increase the ceiling/floor?
Once you hit 30, iirc, buy any higher rating #'s to see higher rating #'s in your shops
but as far as the floor
it doesn't change
you can still see very low #'s
it's based only on the level
np, that's why I say just gotta check hourly :/
seeing the weekly shop populate with 298 modifer rolls is really silly
this is not true either... having higher rated items in your inventory does nothing to increase your ceiling
the only thing affecting your ceiling (and your floor for that matter) is your level
ah ok, like I said, iirc .... so I remember a bit wrong
went from a terrible design to a depressing one 🙂
someone linked a dev post answering that question weeks ago already, but this assumption doesnt seem to die, most likely because thats how it worked in VT so people just assume its the same here
I see your god roll and raise you:
With Power Cycle I can usually get around 6 swings before I have to recharge
does anyone know what map scabs appear more often
i seem to only ever encounter dregs
The type and amount of data required to answer your question has probably not been collected yet…
oh we are doing god rolls?
behold this beauty
and now see how the game done me dirty
the ranged crit used to be sprint efficiency btw
What has to be on a mission symbol to know "I played this mission and finished it with Difficulty 5"
three skulls
they also dont show for mission type but for the exact "this mission type / map combo" btw
Oh good to know. Thanks
this is the symbol that denotes you finished that particular mission on damnation (difficulty 5)

Ok we are both wrong
The god roll would be Wrath + Power Cycler
Wrath is very good, aye
I just like my combo of Wrath + Rending because with that extra armor pen, it cuts through ANYONE
The only thing that stops me is a Bulwark. Because for some reason a charged power sword can't cut through that shield
how did you acquire this? regular upgrade from shop route?
I'm going to reenact every last part of what you did, what kind of socks were you wearing? did you skip breakfast? what cycle was the moon in?
Does anyone know if you can still get the overloading peril Psyker penance with the Veteran+Plasmagun overload? Or was that just a thing during beta that's since been patched?
Not sure if this is the best spot to ask, but is there a way to turn off the GUI in game to take better screenshots?
honestly it was a reward from a mission. as is. didn't have to upgrade it.
after weeks of looking for any decent power sword for my Vet, the Emperor's Gift came through
dang. well emperor sees fit to give me lots of orange autopistols so in your face
all my best weapons ended up being emperors gift funny enough
He truly favors you
My Zealot only seems to get Devil's Claw swords and Turtolsky heavy swords. I have never even seen a Combat Blade
emperor seems pretty fickle, almost like he's not even involved. what's the deal with that?
I guess life is tough when you're 50-something thousand years old, mostly dead, and stuck on a mountain sized toddler chair until he finishes eating his psykers
I need some help ppl
Should I be using this setting? I can't tell if it's hurting or helping my performance...
Anyone have experience with it?
how does bloodletter blessing from eviscirator works? is it bleed stacks per attack, or do you apply bleed stacks with every tick of dmg on reved up attack?
when refine item, can we get a higher rank perk, or can only get perk at the same rank as the original?
Either
what is the meaning of the frame on right side of the mission?
nothing
That's a part of map behind the icon
It's always there
😓

I thought it was something
Pranked
just additional graphic, for screen clutter
cuz the eagle look completed and centered
brain be like "this must be something significant"
You're not the first one there
thanks for the answers guys 👍
Does your laptop have a separate graphics chip? If not, you will not enjoy the performance of Darktide on your laptop. If so, you have a chance.
Is there any way to just reliably start a mission from the start?
Right now? You'd need another player to start a private strike team, that would work.
You could pick a mission from the available ones on the map. If the mission you want to start isn’t available on the map (or at the difficulty you want to play on), you’re SOL, unfortunately.
I wish you could choose any difficulty for the missions on the map… but nooooooo
grimoires make missions so hard
for non-ogryns especially.
Zealots can hold it fine since they have a tendency to stack HP
I've failed every tier 3 public mission today
That’s why I take Corruption Resistance (and CR: Grims) on my curios
I know one of them isn’t bugged
So I’m covering my bases 🤣
hey if you reroll a perk on a green then upgrade the weapon to blue, purple, will the subsequent perk that is assigned at purple be locked?
Yes, I had to learn that the painful way
well... it was on a curios, but I assume it works the same way on weapons
yeah thats reasonable
speaking of which... hopefully someone can answer me this here, I've been rerolling a perk on a curios for like... 200 times but couldn't get a tier 4 perk even once... is that a bug or is there another reason for it?
is there a known issue with rerolling? i rerolled a weekly a couple times and i can no longer reroll it
You are not allowed to refill infinitely, but there is no UI element that tells you this.
I think you get 3 or 4 rerolls per week per character
They do increase in cost, so if you remember what the last one cost you, you will know when you’re on your last one
it says it costs 7500 to reroll but it doesnt go through
wait so teh cost resets if I wait a week?
Weird. The 7500 one ought to go thru. Try re-logging?
The whole weekly quest system resets if you wait a week
Heh
I wonder if, in addition to the per-character weekly quest reroll cap, there’s also an invisible per-quest-slot reroll cap… 🤔
Considering so many things are time gated in the objective of player retention it wouldn't surprise me
Got no data to back it up tho
hello , new to the server, has any in here the same prob as i, when i try to go to keybindings the game just crases again and again, any solutions i should know about? thx
Just gonna copy-paste this...
"I've been rerolling a perk on a curios for like... 200 times but couldn't get a tier 4 perk even once... is that a bug or is there another reason for it?"
should be more along the lines of 300 rerolls by now
All I can think of, is maybe it’s tied to the power level of the curio itself?
Did you mess about in any ini files? If not, perhaps try “verify integrity of game files” in Steam, and check for graphics card driver updates…
no mess i did all the above both verify and grafic card update, it has been like this since beta.. 😦
What graphics card do you have?
Do you use any non-standard human interface devices?
Aka other than a mouse or keyboard?
GTX 1080 ti and no other
Hmmmm
I guess I’m stumped… maybe start poking around in ini files? Sounds like you may have a bad keybind in there somewhere… somehow
And the game can’t handle displaying it to you…
i can do anything els in the game menu exept keybindings..
but ill take your advice thx 🙂
Oh, your keybindings work, but the other menus don’t
All my advice was assuming your key binding menu didn’t work
There is a settings menu in the Launcher for Darktide, can you open that menu?
I mean, a graphics settings menu
If so, try disabling Ray Tracing (RT) and “FidelityFX” (aka AMD) settings
no all other menus work exept keybindings
Oh. Hmmm
I don’t think there’s a keybindings menu in the launcher
But I could be wrong
I’d Google something like “Darktide rebind ini file”
allright thx 🙂
whats an error: 9999? just did a heresy mission with 3 script till the end and got dced and cant recon
I know it's super rare, but do we know if there's any chance a Power Cycler power sword can appear in the shop? Or can it only be found via upgrading?
Anyone else notice the different Blessing icons? It is the same buff right?
I think that’s just “your packets got devoured by Nidhoggr the Net Serpent”
Anyone got any tips on completing the Veteran penance where you need 100% accuracy and no ammo left at the end? 😩
Is the best thing to pick plasma gun with low max ammo - charge all your shots, and cross your fingers you don't miss any?
There’s a way to cheese it, involving disconnecting with one round left and hoping. Apart from that, I would say go with the stub revolver or maybe combat shotgun (due to low total round counts) and never pick up any ammo (or have ammo be generated for you)
Also, consider forming a dedicated squad who is on board with you attempting the penance
Thanks for the tips 🙂
Good luck, soldier!
If I change a perk on a blue item, does that lock the following perks if I upgrade it to a purple/orange?
I did it with the plasma, least shots to make and gain the least shots from elite kills
and you can be pretty useful with it still
Yes
haha well boys. i just neutered my 375 modifier rated blue bolter.
🇫
probably someone already asked but any tips in doing "Going out with a bang" achievement? of course try and error are option but i`m not so lucky with randoms and sometimes it leads to full team dying if im dead lol
Shotgun special action does what exactly? Can't tell a difference in the meat grinder
horizontal spread high stagger on each pellet
ищу русскоговорящих огринов и ветеранов
thats the kill 3 elites with blowing yourself up as psyker right?
the easiest way to do it is the mission (investigation) where you have to auspex the Nurgle Tree and then at the very end right before you enter the escape ship theres a little shack on the left side which keeps spawning groups of 3 elites on Heresy
its the easiest spot imho ... just gotta have a team thats onboard
ty gonna try that
i am having some trouble procing decimator (continously chaining more than 2 attacks). I've tried it out in the psychanium and no joy. Any tips please... thx
where can i get this dope nurgle frame? its amazing and i neeeeeeeed it.
it better not be some overly hard bullshit archievement
Where crafting?
you have to kill a lot of pox walkers
nice
@quaint gyro 10k poxwalkers I think
the teammates that run insanely fast around the map:
- are they zealots or are they carrying knifes or is it sprint efficiency??
(wht gives that movement bonus)
press Mouse5 really quickly 10x times
can anyone tell me if this is good
ohoho I would like to try that out
any suggestion for 100% accuracy runs? Guns, Map, etc.
Some favor the Stub Revolver. I think the Combat Shotgun might be a good idea. Farm one with very low ammo stat maybe?
Do not choose the class feats that feed you ammo for kills
Do not pick up any ammo
Become melee
ur appreciated
I think this is a base passive trait. I don’t think you can turn this off unfortunately 😩
Is +10% Damage (Unyielding Enemies) a good perk? I’m not sure if I should risk losing it by refining
I'm having so much trouble finding the right group to manage this stupid penance "Going Out with a Bang". Are there any surefire ways to get this stupid thing?
It's the one where you have to kill 3 specials with the psyker overload
it seems to be pure random, with it dropping off after 20ish gifts a week
@thorn sequoia not particularly, its only good for monstrosities and bosses, which we dont fight particularly often nor do u tend to need specific dmg against them
@proud idol easiest if you can get into a heresy or even damnation. There tends to be lots of big rager group spawns of 5+. shock staff can increase peril pretty quickly. even just playing regular you can probably find a chance in a narrow hallway when your team is getting pushed back by bulwarks, many elites will be right behidn them
Anyone knw if joining a game in progress resets the progression on flawless execution done 14 in a row with no downs but nothing still says seven last few missions I’ve chosen has put me into games in progress
the joining itself doesn't break the chain, thanfully, unless you die there, of course. but it won't count as a completion either. you can just disconnect, if you want, since it also doesn't break the chain.
Ahhh I guess will just keep going then how annoying cheers for the clarification
It doesn't reset progress and also doesn't contribute to progress.
Unless you go down (for resetting progress).
Haven’t gone down yet thankfully
Any tips on completing Heavyweight Champion?
high intensity damnation and a premade full of people who will help you a) survive, b) gather the right blob. it's one of the worst penances, if not the worst.
for comparison, 'headpop a boss from full' also takes a premade, but is completed by just holding a special button by one dude in the team, zero effort from the rest.
When crafting
Soon™️
Idk why they thought increasing the requirement from 4 to 6 was a good idea
is there an issue with Decimator on Axe's? I cant get it to proc, tried it in Psykanium etc and dont see how to get it going. Its the chain at least 2 hits blessing.
Hello! Thought I'd ask again in case anyone knows but is it possible at all for the Power Cycler trait to appear in shop since it's tier IV? Or does it only appear from consecration? Thanks!
tier 4 blessings appear very rarely in the cash shop and fairly rarely in Melk's
How does Crucian Roulette work?
has anyone actually ever gotten anything good from milk's mystery acquisitions
I recently bought a hammer with thrust on it
oh you mean the mystery ones, thought you meant the limited time shop
I probably wouldn't bother with the mystery aquisitions till we get the whole crafting system
yeah i seem to have only gotten greys and even then they aren't particularly high in rating
Do i understand it corrrectly that 1 blessing stacks bonus dmg and 1 bonus stagger?
Thank you!
Zealot, Dagger 80 mobile, sprint efficiency, heavy attacks spam, side dodges, side dodges off height carry momentum
how do i become a better zealot
Am I right that middle one will be best for front of the line, crowd control Zeal?
get thy wrath be swift talent, slide dash up to enemies and whack them
anyone on here can help me with Decimator proc'ing, i'm not getting it ? thanks.
let me show you why ssire melk is my new sugardaddy
got this from mystery acquisition
now roll it
already did ... you wanna see and cry?
how the emperor done me dirty
you poor bastard
that crit was sprint efficiency before irerolled it btw
and the only thing that unarmored dmg bonus is good for is one shotting body-shot snipers on damnation because literally everything else that is "unarmoured" dies in one hit already anyways
the gun might still be salvageble if i get a good high enough level blessing on it on the next consecration
but i cant be arsed to do it
Backend error?
Should I buy this?
It's 500+ if I reroll one of the perks into a 4 star perk which is possible.
and I love collecting 500+ weapons
I'm level 30 but 350 is the highest base item level I've seen in my shop after a few rotations with the average being around 330. Are high base levels just really rare or is there something I can do to up my shop's average item level?
buy the highest thing in your shop is what i heard
ah. kinda how vermintide 2 determined the item level of new items using a ranged based on the highest level you've actually owned.
Anyone know if it's worth using chainsword as vet? I've been spoiled by powersword and kantrael XII since beta. I would like to branch out and check things out. I
these 2 penances are the slowest penances to do ever
feels like it never fking goes up
it is. i main chainsword and loving it. but you need savage sweep on it.
its primary advantage is speed and snappiness, like you can just chop people without powering up first.
plus it oneshots mutants with a rev on heresy, and almost does so on damnation.
Is it better to wait until level 30 to buy a transcendant weapon?
i saved all my currencies and just used emperor's gifts and stuff until 30 and don't regret it at all... the only regret i have is that i have too much currency of all types and nothing to buy
thanks thats good know
question: whats the best mission tier to be doing for levelling up? like obviously each difficulty gives more xp the higher you do, but whats best for a mission/reward balance? heresy and damnation probably wont even be worth attempting since im underlevelled and the chance to fail a mission wont be rewarding
ive just been doing malice, but is uprising better to run if its faster? thanks
i feel like 3
forgot the name
but 3 is the most comfortably and reliably finishable without good teammates
4 imo needs at the very least good randoms
while in 3 i can still clutch with a bad team
is this a good weapon for ogryn? in lvl 20 rn. but will get 30 today, will the weapon rating also increase by then ?
Hi Slayer, your shop weapon rating will scale relative to your current level so you'll be able to reliably get 330+ base rated weapons by the time you're level 30
This weapon is fine for levelling you to 30 but the base rating is a little abysmal, you can use it for now without any issues and then keep it for rebless purposes once more crafting features come out and get a main weap with 350 base rating or higher (my recommendation)
That would be Malice difficulty
Malice is the best difficulty for all-round levelling/farming resources (especially Plasteel) and time savings, if you already have a lvl 30 character and know how the game works you can begin playing Malice on your second character from as early as level 3 and do totally fine
@fervent ridgethanks for your expertise
I personally don't play Ogryn so if you care about what is meta or best you'll need to ask the good lads over in #ogryn-class but if you just wanna have fun and play stuff that feels good any weapons of any tiers will perform fine even on heresy+
Btw is Can opener a S tier blessing or A+?
Can you take a screenshot of what it does
@fervent ridge
Rending is a personal armor debuff (only you can take advantage of it) vs Brittle which reduces the armor of the target for all of your team so I'd say it's maybe a B tier blessing at best
ooh
I think blessings that do raw damage or help with stagger (your main job as an ogryn since you're the crowd control guy) would be superior than a personal armor debuff on 1 specific enemy type
Wider application for a variety of situations with damage or cc blessings 
I am only baby ogryn, I hear Can Opener is good, but I am not good at using my spesh… speck… bashin’ hairy-ticks. I just get the red mist and then me gun is empty 😔
which enemy are classified as "maniacs" in game?
You can check it in the "butchery", rager is iirc
Is it me or veteran seems the more powerfull of the 4 class ? You put 3 or 4 vet together, they just roll on heresy missions
those that attack you like ones. Like my ex wife for example.
🤣
A good team, that has all the combat tasks covered, will do very well
I still don’t know how to be a good teammate. But I think the ability to recognize that your team has a weakness, and compensate for it instead of trying to double down on the thing that your team already does very well, is important
Well, true, but it wasnt my point about people skills, but class inherent capability.
It seems to me that missions with random people feels easier the more vet you have in the team. Vet seems to be the most represented class, statistically I shouldnt have only good players in my games
it's hard to tell what the team currently have though, cuz the game don't show us the gun 😦
So true
It would be nice if people negotiated their load out in that ready-screen… but we only have 63 seconds max, so
It’s a lot to ask of quick players, I guess
It’d be nice to see loadout yes
That way I know “oh I can mess with plasma” or “oh I really need the mk12 since we have zero range weapons”
Does the gear rating on trinkets really affect anything?
what do you mean?
Sorry, not trinkets. Curios. This number:
Trying to figure out if I should be taking curio's with the higher numbers or if I should just focus on what perks they give me
the rating is just a representation of the higher (or lower) values of your perks and blessings on the curio (or any other item for that matter)
77 + 20 = 97 btw ... thats all there is to "Rating"
Ohhh gotchya. So a lower number doesnt really matter if the perks are better. Thanks!
if that toughness was 15% instead of 17 that 77 rating would be like 65ish and thus the overall rating would obviously be lower than 97 then
Public service announcement, trappers can spawn behind terrain and trap you while not being visible. Lost a heresy run to it just now.
I have the Power Matrix contract that says to do the secondary missions six times and I am finding it too hard to do. I can only find two scripys on any run and every time someone with a grimraw dies.
Anyone have any tips? I can't roll it for some reason.
Make sure you have enough credits if you've rerolled multiple times
I have lots of credits
I rolled three or four because they were similar. I can never do these secondary mission contracts. It seems to need completing all of them to get it and sometimes they don't count.
I hear there's a bug where old characters can't reroll more than 3 missions in a week
So if you did you probably got hit with that
I am a beta character. sad
Obesefish seal of quality
The limited rolls is a bug, not by design? Well that feels a little better.
That's what I read after some digging
I have a newer character. I'll have to pay attention. Unless it affects the account
AFAIK it's not a bug, but just not communicated to the player?
So, the secondary mission type contracts. Is there a way to make them do able? I have played Power Matrix so much now.
It's possible that it's an extremely dumb design decision
But if it's intended it would make more sense to grey out the reroll button once you reach the limit
And have some communication of it
Finding all the scriptures would help, but it is like one doesn't spawn. I've done it on other maps.
I have that same suspicion as well, there doesn't seem to be always 3 despite being absurdly thorough with checking the map.
There does seem to be reports of players rerolling well beyond 3 missions, so that also leads me to believe it's a bug.
Although it's possible that infinite rerolls was "unintended" and now a cap has been patched in with no mention.
Darn. Well thanks for the info.
One thing I did learn, multiple scripts can spawn in the same part of the map.
Official response
Us tbh
when was the last anyone seen t5 repair? literally last mission i need for frame 😦
Multiple scriptures / grimoires can definitely spawn in the same "subzone" in one run, so it's best to check all possible locations. I've been logging all my runs and out of about 100 runs, there's been double spawns in about 20 of them
I've seen that too. No stone left unturned in my runs now.
If only I knew all the locations where the books could spawn 😔
my highest rolled bolter so far, not sure about the perk/blessing/reload speed. would you consider upgrading this? or send it to the streets
it's ok, ideally mobility should be the dump stat but if you dont got a better bolter laying around its fine, and the blessing bolter needs most is rending to let you mag dump crushers easier
ended up upgrading to this, i'm happy with this until something better comes along
the rending's exactly what you wanted, turned it into a very good bolter, other than that you'd want to reroll the infested perk into maniac typically
also upgraded this, not sure how i feel about it. was really hoping for power cycle
yea powercyclers hard to come by, the low finesse on that is a HUGE hit, since that governs attack speed and headshot damage
this is really good
just reroll infested into something actually good and later when we get the rest of the crafting you swap out cavalcade
hi, I have a question about resistance against gunners, what is consider a gunner? when a curio say 15% resistance (gunners) , I mean, it is just the elite ones or all enemies which bringing a gun?
i have some curio where blessing value change even if its at max
or the total value do not match with blessing + perks
yeah curios are a bit weird with how much rating they allocate to some of their blessings ... dunno why
cant argue xD
So am I dumb or?
Am I not understanding this penance correctly?
You need to be with less than wound's worth of health
So I need to be below my last wound bar for most of the mission right?
For private games can you choose level difficulty and modifier?
I believe it said maintain 75% health at least and corrupt less than a wound
Assuming you have no bonus wounds, you need to stay at less than 50% HP for 75% of the mission which must also be completed in less than 20 minutes meaning you only have 5 minutes of leeway.
I had no bonus wounds and I was below the threshhold for like the entire mission
didn't heal once
we did the mission in 16 minutes, hab dreyko investigation on heresy
16 minutes is extremely fast. You sure you were on Heresy?
is there any truth to the weapons in the shop being scaled off of the power level of your equipped weapons? or is it more complicated than that?
I think it’s only scaled off your character Trust Level.
Yes I only play heresy
We did it in 16 mins 2 zealots veteran psyker
completely random group too
looks like you're right
thx for your reply
Just good luck on the game director
because the game director is almost as bad as the optimization in this game. 💀
Can't be worse than the actual drooling troglodytes who made these penances...
Question: How does Hi-Intensity Heresy compare to regular Damnation? I just did a Hi-Int Heresy that took about 40 min but with a competent team was hella fun
Why the fuck are the load times so long? First, 5 minutes on coming into my character select then another 5 going in!?
Why is it when I don't play veteran I get braindead zealots
so when I go to play zealot I get braindead veterans
Put the fucking power sword down and use your lasgun before I beat your head in
the volume of enemies from the high intensity modifier outweighs the increase in enemy stats when comparing the two
under 1 wound, so remove all +1 wound curios and drop to 49% hp or less
remain that way for 75% of the mission length, and complete the mission under 20 minutes
completed in 14min myself with a premade
I did this.
from start or did you hot join?
Start
hi, I have a question about resistance against gunners, what is consider a gunner? when a curio say 15% resistance (gunners) , I mean, it is just the elite ones or all enemies which bringing a gun?
only elite units: dreg gunners, with machine guns, scab gunners, with backpack powered hellgun lasers, and ogryn reapers.
regular shooters and stalkers of both fractions aren't included in this resistance, obviously. it's the best one as it is.
thanks zuzuzu
Imagine if gunner resist covered scab shooters and dreg stalkers it'd be so unimaginably goated
which recon lasgun mark is supposedly the good one?
VId for medium range special clearing, VIIa for close range special/horde
Is corruption resistance the same resistance against Grimoire purple health?
No they are 2 separate things
Corruption resistance is vs stuff like Beast of Nurgle spit, daemonhosts, those eyeballs on the smelter and hourglass map
Grimoire resistance is its own specific perk
Which, if I may add, is fucking stupid
hold up Books f with your hp?
They immediately deduct 40 HP and then a steady corruption over time effect
I forgot the exact figure
Like 0.1 hp / 10 seconds or something
so the longer you hold grims the more you're killing yourself
I did not know that
That's why ogryns and zealots usually hold grims, if a psyker or a vet does it that's almost half their health pool permanently removed
ffs been killing myself w karking books
One grimoire reduces your total health by 25%, two reduce it by 50%
IN ADDITION, your health rots away to the tune of about 1HP/10 sec down to a minimum of I think 25% of your total. So if you're doing grims, move your ass. The longer you take to finish the mission, the harder it gets.
The Medicae station resets your health to the base reduction from the number of grimoires the team has; it heals the "rot", but the rot still continues ticking.
Curios can have a grimoire corruption resistance perk, and that's the only thing that affects them as far as I know
- found the detailed grim mechanic breakdown
Yea for sure, after you reach lvl 30 and no longer really need the extra rewards from loot there's no real reason to carry grims especially on heresy+ unless you're bored and want a combat modifier since they took out Lights Out (the only fun warzone condition)
2 grims on heresy put our vet and psyker teammates at basically a single 0 toughness hit away from being downed
I'm at lvl 30 on my preacher rn I am just trying for better gear
curious about thoughts on this. low damage but I like the perk and blessing. is this worth upgrading? I wonder where the breakpoints are for damage on this gun, perhaps a 53% damage mod is enough?
what is the highest rating of weapon?
also curious about the highest rating strictly on modifiers not blessings or perks
380 modifiers, 540 total
is that on every wep or just one particular
380 for every base weapon, the total depends on whether that weapon can get 2 tier 4 blessings
i wouldn't upgrade it. it's hard to talk about specific breakpoints, but it's just plain bad. base is very low.
with the web shop now, finding a new base is just a matter of doing other stuff while pressing f5 every hour, thankfully.
is there any crowd sourced information or site that has the possible spawn locations of scriptures throughout missions?
there's https://darktide.gameslantern.com/mission-board, it has a magnificent active board and interface, but the data itself is woefully incomplete.
and there's https://manschko.github.io/Darktide-Collectible/, which has a terrible interface, but much better locations, from what i can see.
I have a google docs guide that I've been working on, it also has locations that aren't mentioned in any of the other guides (games lantern, steam, etc), but still not done/happy with it :p
For creating up end gameish gear is there a most efficient kind of way to pick a base item, like is it better to fish for a green/blue item with a decent blessing and upgrade the rarity
Goal #1: Acquire weapon of choice with a base rating you can tolerate. Ideally 380 which is the maximum. It also needs to have at least 1 perk you won't want to reroll.
Due to the perk slot lockout and unimplemented but likely restrictive blessing system we'll get in line with the perk system we have, you will have to deal with RNG no matter what you do.
Consecrating a weapon does not increase its base stats at all. It only adds either a perk or a blessing based on the tier you are upgrading to.
Ok so I'll start with the rating and 1 perk I want on the item then ty
is there a way to know if a mission will have dregs or scabs?
I think each mission will have both types in it
All missions spawn both types.
I'm excited about this. should i be upset about the cleave target %?
hi I just got darktide and was wondering if someone could teach me how to play it?
hey bois what replace sprint with
@merry peak I can lay out some basics for you if you want, English speaking okay?
Torrent and Hourglass favor Dregs, Chasm and Throneside favor scabs, but both will spawn on any map
Which is better on the Combat Axe?
Shred or All or Nothing?
I prefer Shred personally, because I do a lot of shoving so my stam is basically never max in combat
decided to upgrade it. pretty happy with this
Yo! welcome to Darktide

Enjoy your stay
Is there anything worth knowing going from lvl 3 to 4? Lvl 3 feeling a bit stale to me recently
Ranged enemies are going to be the bane of your existence as more of them spawn at higher frequency, use cover and the crouch button religiously and make sure to slide alot if you're sprinting as well to build good habits
Be sure to ping specials- especially disablers- if you aren't consistently doing that already
Backing up is fine and encouraged because you will almost never be able to push forward against a horde with tough melee enemies like ragers and maulers mixed in. Engage aggro, retreat to a chokepoint or highground, funnel and clear then push
Prioritize rezzing your downed members asap, the damage that even basic poxwalkers can do on heresy+ is substantial and leaving them down on the ground for just a couple seconds can mean their death
Ooo that seems like a lot. Now I'm intimidated lol
is it a bug that i cant replace scriptures weekly contract?
I couldn't replace mine either
t3 > t4 is the biggest difficulty jump in DT, you don't have to follow all of those tips but if you did you'd find heresy a cakewalk, obviously I don't expect people who go into t4 for the very first time to keep all of those things in mind
Hello. I want to become Heavyweight Champion of Tertium. Would anyone like to help me with the penance?
I have achieved it by sprinting through the level instead.
Lmao, well done Jimmy
Hello anyone here wanna help me with On Overwatch Penance
Game crashes , memory leaks , feats not working , bombs not working , game freeze on loading screen , bad shop rng , some blessings dont work and are useless , hit and run on a psyker staff is a JOKE! , mutants throwing players under/outside the map , dogs/hounds weird behavior of jump , huge fps drops in some parts of the map , lack of content , vet has many guns but only 2-3 useful others are 0 , CHAT gets bugged
yea this game really does come feature complete
How does the shotgun cleave? 😩
I asked this question in vet chat about a week ago and got clowned on
So I'll save you the jeering and just get to it
Apparently the pellets penetrate more people
That's it
Shotgun is so balls though and not the fun kind either so I am just buying them to stockpile blessings but idk what even the applications of Man stopper are, it's just very peculiar
Wat is brittleness
This sounds like penetration but worded poorly
they just used the same stat as for melee, to simplify things internally.
also shotgun is fun and efficient, but it has no ammo sustain whatsoever, which pretty much kills it.
Very fun absolutely, efficient (?), and yea ammo is so sad
efficient — as in, it kills stuff real good, at any distance too.
works as both marksman tool and run-n-gun.
whatever it doesn't kill, it topples, so, combined with instant ready, works as a panic button.
That has to be in malice- because the shotgun falls off a cliff in heresy+
If the stub revolver doesn't exist a stronger case can be made for shotty but in terms of crippled weapon the revolver does what shotty does better
it kills shooters on damnation just fine. doesn't oneshot gunners, admittedly, but few things do.
but it all doesn't matter because you go dry after a single encounter, and that's it.
so yes, in practical terms taking shotgun above malice is ill-advised.
If you can record damnation footage of a shotty user you'll get my like subscribe comment and share
That shit sounds extremely painful to pull off
it'd be a short footage, because ammo is so bad, it's basically griefing your team for the rest of the map.
unless they're three psykers.
I used shotgun in damnation once. Long story short - I don't want to do it anymore
When shotguns are bad in damnation, I don’t stop using shotguns, instead I just don’t play damnation
Does hanging off the edge count as a down for Flawless Execution?
does the stats differ too much or are those basically same as good or some is better?
Inspect the movesets, find the one that you like the most
other is on sale
hey sorry to bother you but I need help my friends have darktide on Xbox and I on steam and don't know how to end up to play the games someone could tell me if it's possible and if so how to do it?
Stopping power on the XII. If everything else is in the high 70's is it completely necessary?
Sadly, it is not possible right now
Gamepass and Steam don't have crossplay yet
Thank you for the reply
so i was playing on a higher difficulty and someone said they were looking for armor when we were going around the map, is there hidden collectables on the maps?
They must be referring to crafting mats
Like plasteel/diamante
or if it was a grimoire/scripture search mission
There's no such thing as armor in the game
"Ammo" tho
That’s what I figured, I asked him what he meant and he just decided not to respond. Plus I couldn’t find anything on google about it.
probably not, but still not recommended.
Perhaps he just confused Warhammer for Wolfenstein? Happens to the best of us 😂
correct me if im wrong but the modifier "critical weakspot damage" affects damage done to the weak spot while also being a crit? or does it just have to be a weak spot hit?
I assume they mean the hit has to be both, otherwise they would just say "crit" or "weakspot hit"
hmmm alright ty
What do yall think for vet?
One is fast while the other is slighter better in all aspects
For me personally, the one you have is better as faster attacks tends to create more opportunity to stun or interrupt attacks
However, crowd control or trying to damage a high value target is way better on the other
At then end, it's all about preferences to situations you wish to have an advantage on
Are the available items in the store based on the average ratings in character inventory or only does it only look at the highest ratings?
The heavy attack is a ST slash downward as opposed to the Mk1's horizontal cleave :/ Guess I worked that out. Gotta have horde cleave when running a xii mainhand
Depends upon the level, higher the level the more ratings you will get in a weapon till you are max and then the store RNG will decide your fait, tip - Go for anything above 400 as that's like the best you get
I thought 380 base rating was the highest available right now.
True, it is so well GL on that
Nope, I got like 400 ratings weapons in my stash all blue [ Rare ], just a sec, let me send you a screenshot
Ok. Then it's weird that I have 380 rating weapons but the shop has only been giving me 360-370 stuff for the last 2 weeks.
What's your level?
If max, you are being sadly damned by the RNG of the store
It seems you are indeed Damned if that's the case, seriously for two weeks? I feel sorry for you
Yeah, the highest base available right now is a 356.
Yeah, the base rating on that sword is 367.
I see, well this is my stash as you can see base rating is above 400 on most weapons
No, those are combined ratings.
Ah I see what you mean now, let me check one sec
I know, wait a min
This is my highest base rating weapon but it was a one-off 380. Everything else has been under 370 lately.
Just talked with a friend who has been playing for 300+ hours and said that you can get above it, he will send the screenshots later on of him having it above the 400 mark apparently. I am new to the game in a sense so don't really know much but according to him, it's possible but very rare to find one.
There is a visual bug that happens when you craft a weapon to increase its rarity. The modifier rating erroneously increases, but if you add up all the bars, the true modifier rating remains the same.
Really? Might be that for me and him if that's the case
