stagger

[velvet mirage]

ah right, makes sense

thanks

[woeful root]

the combo attacks of ragers can't be spot dodged, so they're a menace in melee

[lethal wyvern]

you can block and dodge at the same time, you'll block one axe and dodge one when they swing both weapons at once

[little coyote]

dodge sliding will get you of their range pretty reliably

[lethal wyvern]

but yes usually weapon specials have high amount of stagger or ignore rager's super high stagger resistance they have in their melee combo

catachan sword probably has the best one

you parry their attack do a ton of damage and normally knock them over

[light orchid]

i got a question and wondered if anyone on here knew. with the psycker, is it possible to tank a crushers overhead attack if you had all block efficiency curious and the perk on a blazeforce sword + deflector blessing, with the kinetic deflection trait?

[lime idol]

Which weapons are u using

You need weapons reliable stagger to break them out of their combos

Hold block, dodge slide backwards to get out of range, and hit them with a reliable stagger to break their combo

[light orchid]

second question. do toughness curious apply AFTER your class. meaning if you picked two +15 toughness modifiers would the curio apply to the before total sum of toughness?

not sure i worded that right.

[velvet mirage]

chainswords and Heavy swords, so no stagger special sadly

it's not like Im getting stomped by ragers though, was just wondering one ways to deal with them outside of ranged

[lime idol]

For chainswords, hold block to tank their combo, dodge slide back, rev up then push atk into their head (force staggers them as it rips)

For heavy swords, hold block, dodge slide backwards, then use heavy overhead attacks on them (should be able to 1 hit kill Dreg rager if built properly)

If you have bloodletter blessing on your chainsword, you can dodge cancel the revved attack and the bleed DoT will still kill them

[woeful root]

ye

[lime idol]

Curios give +% toughness which is applied after your talent tree

Example:
Veteran base 100 toughness
+15 toughness & +25 toughness from tree (140 total)

Adding a +16% toughness curio will give you 140x1.16=162.4 toughness (+22.4)

[woeful root]

crusher overheads and a few other melee attacks are special-cased to be unlockable and will always go through your block unless you're an ogryn running the shield

[lime idol]

Overhead attacks are unblockable but doesn’t mean it’ll always down you

If you have enough stamina to tank it with a block, it’ll drain all your stamina

[light orchid]

this is all useful information for me, thank you

[light orchid]

this sounds like testing this will be sketchy lol

[woeful root]

sniper shots are also unblockable by Deflector

another thing about Deflector is that the block cost reduction in the description applies only to ranged attacks and not including melee attacks

[light orchid]

i just found that out unfortunately lol

[lime idol]

You can block mauler, crusher & captain overhead attacks

It just drains all your stamina if you successfully block it

[woeful root]

no

[lime idol]

If not, you go down in 1 hit lol

[lime idol]

Pretty sure u can?

[woeful root]

https://streamable.com/yu0jz0

i don't see anything alluding to being able to block block-bypass attacks in that description

[lime idol]

Ah ok

[woeful root]

just stuff describing how the peril calculation for blocking attacks works

the amount of peril generated is still scaled by block eff and all that, but it'll still go through your block

[lime idol]

Are there like different kinds of unblockable attacks then

[woeful root]

they should be all the same i think?

at least patch 12 and before there was grimalackt's post about that

[lime idol]

Scab captain’s mace overhead can hit u but not instantly down u

[woeful root]

where all the unblockables had the "block bypass" thing

i think the captain's overhead doesn't do that much hp damage so it's not as intuitive

lemme see

[hybrid berry]

Hmm, can you parry? Would that work?

[lime idol]

Perfect parry can tank crusher overhead

[hybrid berry]

Noice

[woeful root]

oh yeah dclaws exist

yeah the scab captain's overhead can be survived even by a psyker

roughly 85 hp damage

a non-perfect parry can also tank an overhead albeit costing significantly more stamina

[rigid wasp]

Convoluted

Which I don't think it is, mind

It explains that there are two elements to it to give the total damage, and that the perk modifies only one of those parts instead of the sum, the sum being the expectation

On yours, I don't really understand what is referred to as weakspot and why the result inside the parentheses is being multiplied by the sum of weakspot and body

[lime idol]

It’s basically this

[rigid wasp]

Yes

[unkempt wraith]

Is there any recommendations for me to farm plasteel?

[void forge]

quickplay the highest difficulty you feel comfortable doing

[odd meadow]

Does anyone know how to unlock hard mode for the Karnak twins? I have looked up multiple guides saying to just hit the bells the correct number of times then beat the mission, but I've done that several times already and I cannot get the bells at the beginning of map to spawn. Not sure where I'm going wrong.

[lime idol]

You need to have beaten hard mode once to have those bells spawn I believe

[floral gorge]

anyone know to turn on enemy's hp bar so it become visible

[stoic iron]

mods

[worthy comet]

You need to hit the bells spread throughout the map to trigger hard mode, if you beat the mission you get the bell skips at spawn

[odd meadow]

I’ve done this a few times now. Pretty sure it’s bugged since the 2nd to last patch it’s even been reported on FS forums about a week ago. Thanks for the responses though.

[limber saffron]

Trying to get on overwatch done for my veteran. Any advice on build before I look for a team?

[hoary vessel]

nope just dont take hp damage

let them know tho it helps

[rare quail]

This vs Helldivers 2??

[rare quail]

Fell for the bait.

[hoary vessel]

https://tenor.com/view/prisoners-rage-keyboard-slam-its-over-gif-20078269

what do you gain.

[rare quail]

the ability to see if people still actually like this game compared to helldivers (me)

[quick remnant]

Hd2 look boring to me 🤷

[shut lichen]

https://tenor.com/view/the-road-to-el-dorado-both-both-is-good-gif-8304204

[rare quail]

Wait helldivers has no orgryn this argument is over i like just realized that

[gusty whale]

i wanna say they're very different games

[left geyser]

Absoluutely different games

Tbh I prefer Darktide, Helldivers 2 still needs better weapon balancing. At the moment you can just learn to place your airstrikes and it's GG.

[cyan vapor]

Play passively, let your team know what you're doing, be aware that you can take toughness damage, only hp damage counts

Careful with enemies behind you, careful with dogs, who do almost instant damage

[neat jacinth]

To build on this advice, you can take one melee hit at MAX toughness. At any toughness below 100%, melee will bleed through and invalidate the penance. The extra toughness you can gain from the relevant Vet and Zealot abilities will bump you above 100% and let you take some extra hits without the bleedthrough.

[void forge]

actually right now I think there is a bug where if you have the buff from VoC you will be immune to ranged health damage

this works with both gold toughness generaters and includes even enemy flamers

[broken raft]

Get a group of friends, commit suicide at the start of the mission... friends complete and you get penance

[long crypt]

worth it ?

[fast laurel]

for to only farm the blessing ye

[long crypt]

ah ok i meant to run with, didn't know if damage had a breakpoint till it did next to nothing

[vivid fox]

IIRC that was fixed no?

[broken raft]

when?

[vivid fox]

or maybe that was just the alt +f4

a long time ago

[broken raft]

I did it in early january

[vivid fox]

this year?

i got mine last year, but did it the right way

[broken raft]

What they fixed was the zealot one

the suicide method was funny so I did it in a gorup here

[vivid fox]

the one with 90% accuracy is such a pain, i am pretty sure that shooting the void shield count as a miss...

[broken raft]

yeah it does

[vivid fox]

that explains why

[broken raft]

same with bulwarks

[vivid fox]

we did a melee only auric scab melee

[broken raft]

I just did a thing of the carnival with a plasma gun

[vivid fox]

and i was pretty confident i could just dump my revolver on the shield and get the penance... i did not

[vivid fox]

i should probably do that hmmm

[broken raft]

remember no survivalist

[vivid fox]

yeah

not a pb

the best would be heresy low int, i could speedrun the hell out of it until the last event

[drowsy tendon]

What weapon Ulgo use for 90% accuracy penance?

[quick remnant]

The Vet one ?

[drowsy tendon]

Yes

Need to know

[broken raft]

Plasma gun

[broken raft]

If shoot charge shot at bulwark, count as hit

[drowsy tendon]

Hmm hopefully teamate help Ulfo

[broken raft]

Other guns counts as miss

[drowsy tendon]

By not making life hell like GIVING ULGO AMMO BACK

NOT WANT AMMO

[broken raft]

Remember good melee, like chain sword

Or power sword

[drowsy tendon]

Ulgo use shovel

[broken raft]

Shovel good with gun, not as main dps

[drowsy tendon]

Ulgo learning moveset like Ulgo learn rapiers in vermintide 2

[broken raft]

Understanding

But for accuracy penance, chainsword nicest

[drowsy tendon]

Ulgo say thank you little one!

[drowsy tendon]

True.

[near pawn]

If you wanna do the no hit one you need to do low intensity mission

[drowsy tendon]

HOW YOU READ ULGO MIND?

[near pawn]

Dear, sweet brute...

removes my sinister mask, revealing a mirror

I AM ULGO!

[drowsy tendon]

IS ULGO ALL ALONG (ulgo say "I IS ULGO" never used am)

ULGO IS ULGO?

[near pawn]

YEA! BUT I IS THE, eerr, REALIST ULGO!

[drowsy tendon]

OOOOHHH

[dapper shard]

@candid sparrow this might be the better space to ask. Ogryn clubs, I assume?

[candid sparrow]

yes

[dapper shard]

Ogryn chat also works, I suppose

[candid sparrow]

and i actually meant to post in #ogryn-class

[timid fossil]

Hey guys, i’ve been trying to figure out how to use the no respite blessing but I’m having trouble to understand It’s effects. Anyone have any tips about wich weapon to use it on?

[remote compass]

best used on weapons that autofire by default, so that enemies get more and more staggered as you shoot at them

and by staggered I mean flinch, full stop, get pushed back, then knocked to the ground
the more powerful your attack, the faster the enemies cycle through those stages of stagger. in the end there is no real strategy to the blessing on some weapons, it's just a passive damage buff

I guess it also combos well with any other way to get enemies knocked down, like push attacks, crowd control ultimates etc.

[broken raft]

Or free self from mortal coil at the start

Let lil ones carry

[hoary vessel]

turn corner

five trappers fire at once and get the entire squad

i guess you win that one director

[zealous dome]

Most devious lick yet

[timid fossil]

i can help

[placid nest]

My bad I already left the game a while ago.

[timid fossil]

No prob, hope you got it

[tacit mantle]

Hey guys just moved up to Heresy on a vet, done x3 so far and havent lost yet but I was wondering if anybody hd any tips/advice?

(wanting to get gud with the las if possible before moving)

[delicate warren]

Ye lots https://docs.google.com/document/d/1S6fRBvHazuv9qM-jOTU4lXZCxcarcoGWfV_vmSOfK0I/edit#heading=h.v0xc5dslvla0

[tacit mantle]

my man thanks so much, blessed be me

👀

[turbid dock]

Oh it's done?

[hoary vessel]

veterans take a knee and show some respect this man just dropped the bible

man i use to swear on that powersword

i forced myself to use the catachan sword and holy FUCK i would have never thought I’d be casually metal gear rising a daemonhost and take 0 damage

good doc

[delicate warren]

It was published in pins at vet chat for like 14 days ago.

Havent really been updating it too much recently

Lack of motivation, time. most of my time in learning, doing tech related things went into a new pc.

The real update i wanted to do was this.

Its a BP calculator that can use talents.

[delicate warren]

The main thought process with this is that i felt the orignal testing was flawed in how perks where valued. There is alot of room for user error when im testing multiple perks, talent combinations on veteran weapons. Espically when considering how long i was spending time doing that.

A program is easier, provides more trustworthy information.

The faults of the documents information can ultimately then be traced to flaws in the programming of the program rather then me being bad at testing things thoroughly. Some minor damage values will likely however be wrong in the program by a couple decimals due to weird fatshark logic in the game, that i cannot quite explain.

[rigid wasp]

How is it that I get ultimately the best possible roll on weapons, and when I go into a damnation level mission, it take multiple reloads just to kill a small group of Pox Walkers. What am I doing wrong here?

[woeful root]

what ranged weapon is this

[rigid wasp]

Krourk Mk V Twin-Linked Heavy Stubber

In Malice and below it rocks, but damnation, it's weaker than spit wads.

[weary raft]

i need darktide help, game been acting real slow for me lately, black screen after the title screen and my characters arent popping up until minutes later, also dialogue is delayed. does anyone else have this problem or do i need to install it on my SSD?

[broken raft]

Use shield for walkers

[rigid wasp]

TYVM. I am not talented with the shield.

[rigid wasp]

I install all my games to the SSD NvMe. IDK what it is like installing to "not" an SSD.

[weary raft]

i only have 500gigs on my ssd so i try to be sparce with it

i'll switch to my ssd and see if its faster

[vocal nacelle]

malice enemies have lower health than damnation and krourk have the lowest accuracy

[twin bronze]

I begrudgingly hate how fun and strong the hobo knife is

[zealous dome]

The meth addict sharp metal

[outer abyss]

Hey guys! Just a quick question. Just recently found out that you can use the special action while having the medipack or ammo crate equipped to aim at intended recipient. When I try to get close to another player that doesn't have any ammo crate or medipack and press the left and right mouse button while aiming with either of the two nothing quite happens. Does anyone know what it was supposed to do and how to make it work?

[zealous dome]

Hold the special key, get close to your target, release special key

[outer abyss]

OHHH so that was what you were supposed to do. Thanks a lot!

[modern bane]

where do I report getting stuck below the floor

it's pretty cozy down here but it's also kinda cramped

[void forge]

fatshark forums would be your best bet

[wintry rover]

are there any missions where dregs are guaranteed? or they are more common on certain difficulty lvl

[vocal nacelle]

nope , RNG but try the water supply mission or dessert maps

[elder lagoon]

Hey guys, iam just back into the game after year, deleted my old char for fresh experience.
What class do you suggest for first leveling ?
I prefer melee over ranged but id like to do some kind of hybrid build kinda.
Zealot, Vet or Psyker ? I dont care about meta/op class.
And yeah id prefer playing with autogun+sword or revolver+sword
Thanks for any advice and have a nice day ❤️

[twin bronze]

Sounds like Zealot is the way to go then

[twin bronze]

I'd prefer uprising difficulty if you're just going for contract completion, they don't switch up between dregs and scabs halfway (so you'll have to leave and remake if you see scabs) and there arn't that many people who do lower levels so you can dispatch them in the method your contract requires

[molten pawn]

If you love melee, then have I got the path for ya!
Make a Zealot, and then glance at the talent tree.
See the picture of the guy on the left, going absolutely apeshit while swinging his sword? There's the right playstyle for ya, my friend!
My own build uses an Mk.XV Eviscerator coupled with a Kantarel (sp?) shotgun. Surprisingly viable at long range. Ultra fun to play. I get to cannonball into a horde, body parts fly all over the place, and I come out covered in blood and somehow miraculously alive to the surprise of everyone. 🤪

[unborn hollow]

Ok so quick update on this:
This only happens when I play Veteran-

It runs PERFECTLY fine when I play Psyker Ogryn or Zealot

[manic ridge]

Any Recomendations to keep frames consistent? I Like the way my game looks its just that I will get huge frame drops and It effects my proformace. I'm starting to worry if its dragging my teammates down

[waxen schooner]

Would anyone be able to help me complete a penance It’s the one for ogryn where I need to charge 40m in 20secs

[vocal nacelle]

You can complete it solo

[waxen schooner]

Can’t start a private game by myself

[vocal nacelle]

Forgot about that part

[waxen schooner]

lol yeah it’s annoying

[twin bronze]

I can help with the penance

[waxen schooner]

I’d appreciate it man

[twin bronze]

My code is there, just send an invite over

[waxen schooner]

Sent request

[waxen schooner]

Pretty sure it has to be in heresy or higher?

[twin bronze]

Oh

You right

[waxen schooner]

Double checking

[novel cairn]

I have a question and this seems like the right place to ask it.

So a couple games ago a pack of hounds whiped our team. Exept an Ogryn. He just kept throwing them off after a while of them chomping. So I was wondering if this was like a new update? Or if he's using a talent of some sort. Or if they're using an exploit.

Feel free to @ me cause otherwise I won't notice a response.

[twin bronze]

A late taunting shout could knock them off

A well timed mid air slap/melee attack could stagger them off

[twin bronze]

Sometimes other mobs such as bursters and chargers could knock them off too

[novel cairn]

I do know that. Nothing did I am sure of it.

Only one of the like 6 timed a pox burster jumped on him

[novel cairn]

Could you do that on the ground?

[twin bronze]

Not exactly but if you trigger a taunt, then got jumped before the animation, the animation could pop after knocking the dog off

[prisma wraith]

iirc there's a talent in the "feel no pain" keystone that pushes back enemies on depleting stacks, including dogs

[twin bronze]

Oh that would work too

[prisma wraith]

The zealot tree also has something similar

[vocal nacelle]

its the feel no pain talent

[novel cairn]

Coolio

Thanks you all for your input

[bold sentinel]

hi can anyone help me complete special mission secret difficulty?

[zealous dome]

It's Pained Outburst

[hushed rock]

someone can help me with the cliffhanger penance? and i'm glad you help, of course

[azure lodge]

why ogryn wake sleepy man

sleepy man ruin fun

[zealous dome]

Ogryn good fight sleepyhead

hey can someone help me with the malleus monstronum penace? its only for private games

[still geyser]

[calm nymph]

How would I know if I've unlocked hardmode? Will the bells be there even if I'm solo or did I mess up the bells and have to try again?

[lime idol]

If hard mode is activated, the Karnak twins will have red wreaths around their heads in the final arena

[calm nymph]

•_•

[calm nymph]

Figured it out myself

Actually nevermind it's straight up not even there

[lime idol]

Do u mean unlocking the hard mode skip bell? Or activating the mode

[calm nymph]

Hard mode skip bell

I unlocked it then died because they attacked me during the cutscene and I check solo and the bells weren't there

[lime idol]

I think you need to have beaten hard mode at least once

[calm nymph]

I have
although not after unlocking it

[waxen schooner]

Any tips for make every shot count?

The penance for vet

[zealous dome]

Some maps have enemies spawning infinitely on the last session of the mission, Hab Dreyko for example, make every shot count

[waxen schooner]

Alr

Thanks

[vocal nacelle]

Revolver

[waxen schooner]

Alr hopefully I get it done

[waxen schooner]

This penance sucks ass

[grizzled panther]

Make a build that doesnt generate ammo and has mostly melee talents and use a plasma gun. Use all your ammo on hordes and then go melee.

[torpid kestrel]

Or take a weapon with low ammo count like one of the revolvers, mag dump into a Monster or any big target like a Mauler and then fight the rest of the game in melee

[warm hull]

Any help on completing on overwatch penance for vet

[dark tree]

what's the point of having a melee build zealot if psyker crystal build can do the same horde clearing but 10x faster/better? im new to the game and i only have a zealot and i just see the psyker crystals go brrrr and kill everything and the heavies too

[dense tulip]

Shards aren't infinite though

I mean, they respawn rather slowly

[sterile gust]

They fall off on higher difficulties and have bad armor pen, they also build of peril fast and have "limited" shards before it needs to recharge.

They're good at clearing chaff but you know a good assail user from a bad one when you drop a crusher in front of them

[zealous dome]

Since zealots don't have blunt weapons, there's always a point

(except they have two blunt weapons)

[quick remnant]

Crusher and the 2 Thundher hammers ?

[zealous dome]

Yeah, FS should add a morning star with a special to the belly with a follow-up to the head

[vocal nacelle]

psyker is a glass cannon zealot can yolo better than psyker in higher difficulty

[zealous dome]

But why would you play anything but shield ogryn, since you can be invincible with it?

[lime idol]

Assault shards are very overpowered for lower difficulties but will fall off (to a more balanced level of strength) in higher difficulties due to having to deal with more flak armored enemies & elites (both take multiple assail shards to kill) and that assail spam builds a ton of peril for the amount of dmg they inflict

Psyker has really strong horde clear options in high difficulty, assail isn’t really at the very top of that generally speaking

[dark tree]

Then what is the zealot good at? I’ve only seen it do stealth knife ninja builds but other than that it seems like a watered down Jack of all trades class?

[lime idol]

Until death + holy revenant allows you to heal yourself and prevent being downed

Zealot has a ton of +crit chance related talents that makes you do absurd amounts of damage while having very short ability cooldown

Fury of the faithful is an extremely strong ability against just about every enemy in the game

Martyrdom gives you an extremely high boost in melee dmg & attack speed while making you basically unkillable in conjunction with zealot’s multitude of dmg reduction talents

Also zealot’s blitz options are super impactful and can very often save runs

I’m not remotely close to being great at zealot but he’s by no means weak

[woeful root]

a tanky melee-focused class

you have a lot of deterministic survivability tools at your disposal

[zealous dome]

Dodge specialist

Psykers traded survivability for damage
Zealot has both

[dark tree]

Ahhh mebbe my build is wrong cus I just put talent points into whatever(the left side of all 3 trees) cus I be in there hacking and slashing and surviving but I feel like I kill a lot slower and have less impact lol

[stoic basin]

bro is not reading the perk descriptions

me either

[zealous dome]

At least you're not running off and dying

[dark tree]

LOL

[stoic basin]

true better than being a stupid stealth zel trying to speedrun

[gusty whale]

i wouldn't exactly call psyker a glass cannon

unless you purposefully dodge every bit of survivability

[quick remnant]

Psyker has few passive defence, but can have a lot of active ones

[hexed shale]

does mael give better emperor gifts or is it just challenge and increased dockets/crafting mats

[tough epoch]

Psyker is fully a glass cannon,

You do a fuck-ton of offensive/defensive capabilities but the moment the enemies catch up to you they'll beat your ass in a few seconds lmao

[sterile gust]

So true. My melee psyker is so strong but woe me if I fuck up a dodge

[tough epoch]

accurate

[sterile gust]

On My clutch list psykers are usually at the bottom

[light orchid]

question. sincere, not just shit talking. how the fuck is the gun psycher good? ive never seen a good one and ive met many. a few who had clears on twins hm even. but whenever i play with them they always eat up all the ammo and then die. why take it over a staff with infinite ammo and high damage?

is there something im just not understanding with them?

[stoic basin]

probably

[sterile gust]

Depends on the gun but they make excellent boss killers, and kind of have absurdly high dps but people don't know how to play gunpsyker and just BRRRRRRRT

[light orchid]

so its a playstyle thing?

[sterile gust]

Oh yeah gunpsyker is extremely player dependent

[light orchid]

like, boss dps role?

[sterile gust]

It can deal with a lot of things but it's really good at experimenting bosses

[lime idol]

Gun Psyker has very high damage in relation to crits but is also a “ride high drown low” kind of playstyle

It can almost instantly kill everything u point your gun at and is debatably Psyker’s best boss dmg option

[light orchid]

so im gathering it has to be run right for sure, what would be the second best option?

[sterile gust]

It also is dependent on finesse guns to make best use of its crit/finesse bonuses

[lime idol]

Overall strongest psyker builds are probably voidstrike & blaze trauma

[sterile gust]

I like gunpsyker it's goofy

[light orchid]

so i have kinda left my zealot behind, (165) and started maining psycker (100), i been using the surge staff with a crit build. and it seems to get crazy dps along with its fire rate. should i switch to the voidstrike?

[sterile gust]

Smite has some good elite killing so if you're enjoying the weapon stick with it

[lime idol]

Surge staff is probably the easiest anti-special staff you can use

[light orchid]

i like that it stuns dudes so if im overwhelmed with like 20 crushers i can go back and forth until my team can save my squishy ass

and thank you all for the info. much appreciated.

[sterile gust]

Homie knows more than me but I know a little lolol but you're welcome

[lime idol]

Voidstrike could 1 shot a lot of things with crit build & surge blessing but charges slower

[kindred vessel]

What build should an ogryn bring to the Twins

I've been bringing a shield and nobody on my team seems to understand "I will tank the bosses kill them please."

[dapper shard]

What is this "tanking" you mean? Like, what do you do in that fight?

[kindred vessel]

Aggro bosses via taunt or shield bash, maneuver female (melee) and ranged (male) bosses into line with one another, use shield special to no-sell all attacks (usually trying to get a wall to my back to prevent chaff smacking me)

[dapper shard]

Bully club with a Ripper gun, or a Stubber (Stubber I'd only take on Gunlugger)

[kindred vessel]

What makes it really aggravating is that the female boss is impossible to dodge as an Ogryn

[dapper shard]

It's not like Ogryn has to worry terribly with taking Toughness damage during that fight, anyway, as long as you take appropriate skils

Aggroing the bosses isn't... terribly necessary. What matters the most during that fight is that the bosses are constantly damaged, and that if one shield is down, the other one is taken down shortly after the first one.

And preferably focusing only one of the twins at a time - splitting the damage between their two health bars doesn't really benefit you in any way

[kindred vessel]

Yeah well I have a ton of HP and toughness and she still two-shots my toughness bar

[lime idol]

Bring teammates who understand what their roles are

[kindred vessel]

I pug

[dense tulip]

gunlugger with achlys and fire damage kills Rinda rather quick, and after that it's pretty simple

[median panther]

What counts as a down for dreamteam penance? Does a teammate falling off a ledge but getting helped up count as a down?

[zealous dome]

If I'm not mistaken, Rinda's shield takes more ranged damage

[dense tulip]

Yeah

[sudden knot]

Why does some enemies in Maelstrom have this visual effect?

[hard goblet]

What effects does Maelstrom apply to enemies? That will answer your question.

[zealous dome]

Nurgle's blessing, that's the answer

[sudden knot]

So are buffed enemies then, with more health and damage I supose.

[zealous dome]

And stun resistance, bane of smite psykers

[dense tulip]

The biggest problem with Nurgle blessed enemies is that they are practically unstaggerable

[smoky swallow]

the fabled blessed scab trapper is a sight to behold

[sudden knot]

I never noticed any difference when fighting those with my Zealot, perhaps because of the chaos around.

I just played like two times in Maelstrom.

Thanks for explaining.

[zealous dome]

Blessed Monstrosities are a problem

[sterile gust]

I love blessed monstrosities

[vivid fox]

Blessed dogs are a problem

[sterile gust]

Let me at em boss

[vocal nacelle]

just trade blows and toughness

[fluid flare]

imagine the blessed poxbursters that thankfully didn't ship

[dapper shard]

Green dogs have lower resistance to push, though, so they are not that big of a nuisance (unless they catch somebody far away from their team)

Just make Poxbursters weaker to push (via a multiplier in that state) while they are airborne and their green variant wouldn’t be nearly as problematic

[vivid fox]

nononononononononono i had forgotten it was a thing

i am glad some people playtested that

[vocal nacelle]

i remember blessed mutant keep punching my teammate until he died

[void forge]

Yeah when they would just keep on slamming

[wise anvil]

Is there some kind of roadmap or any updates we know of for the endgame of Darktide? Right now it feels a bit shallow in the end game 😄

[fluid flare]

#📢news-bulletin

[wise anvil]

so a bit more waiting until a hopefully less cryptic statement releases

[void forge]

Yeah, a classic "next week"TM

[fluid flare]

you can expect more detailed comms about any one of those updates when it's close to release

that's how Fatshark works, no details until it's almost ready to go

[wise anvil]

[neat jacinth]

Well, we ARE getting news either this week or the next

very excited for words

[frosty tusk]

What mods allows to see teammates setups on tab? Basic scoreboard?

[dapper shard]

Loadout Monitor IIRC

[light orchid]

to many people dont know this including experienced players but: if you hold a stim or med/ammo kit then press and hold your special action button ( chain sword rev up for example) and aim at a person, theyll highlight green, then release it, it gives it to the person. tell your friends.

any one know if the fire shotguns incendiary round can also cause bleed with flechette?

[dapper shard]

Yeah, they can

[light orchid]

sweet thanks!

this is exciting news

[runic grove]

What's a good lvl to try heresy and damnation lvl missions?

Seen a lot of people looking for players able to run those

[coral violet]

whenever you feel like you can consistently get rid of most horde/elites/specials(at least one of those) and not soak up random damage

[prisma wraith]

Generally once the difficulty you're on feels almost like cakewalk, you should be good to try for the next

[coral violet]

low int damnations are easier than heresy so those might be good to get accustomed to breakpoints

[runic grove]

Roger thanks

[sacred pond]

Is there a loadout system ingame?

[rigid wasp]

Top right corner of the uh

The loadout screen

You click the + and it clones your loadout into another slot

I think the base game is a max of 5 loadouts, but there's a mod to extend that amount

[sacred pond]

Thanks

[rain raptor]

Sorry if this the wrong place to ask but I'm having some trouble adding mods, I added the framework and loader... then followed the instructions about placing the mods into the correct folder... add it to the load order list and then when the game starts it simply crashes out. I dont suppose anyone else might be able to assist with this.

I am in https://discord.com/channels/727074276724965407/1162145458114801725 currently if this gets complex or a shared screen is required.

[sturdy wraith]

Can anyone explain how I start a private game to unlock the dont stop me now penance?

[sterile gust]

In the mission terminal you have the option to turn on private games

[sturdy wraith]

Got it, thank you!

Are there people who wanna play a private game? 😅

[night cape]

Do you get more rewards for doing auric matches than you do normal ones?

Mostly regarding plasteel and higher rating weapons?

[sterile gust]

I believe you get more Exp(useless) and dockets. Besides that plasteel and emperors gift stay relatively the same

[lime idol]

No
A normal HiSTG damnation match has the same XP & docket payout as an auric HiSTG damnation match, and the plasteel spawns are around the same

[ashen quarry]

hello folks

looking for someone who can 100% surely do the twins mission on damnation and do so with me in their party

[void forge]

Go to lfg channels

[candid sparrow]

chslipmip

[vivid fox]

wait, what????

[vivid fox]

except the fire has infinite cleave and not the bleed for some reason

[ivory ruin]

Wheres the strategium at?

my friend cant access the armory without visiting it and I dont remember

unless he has to be solo

[sterile gust]

Restart the game.

The carnival cutscene overrides the strategium cutscene

Making the armory locked

[sterile gust]

^^

[rigid wasp]

hey new player here when do the skins in the shop refresh?^^

[vocal nacelle]

there's a bit delay, should be today

[rigid wasp]

ok but in genrel how long does it take ?

[vocal nacelle]

they said today, if we are following usual shop refresh time around 7-9 hours later

[rigid wasp]

oh no sorry

maybe i prahsed it wrong

i wanted too know how long a shop refresh takes time so if its today how long does it usaly take for a new one

like 1 week 2 weeks 1 monht

[vocal nacelle]

2 weeks

[rigid wasp]

oh nice thanks^^

[fierce sable]

How do people farm good blessings

[vocal nacelle]

there's 4 method :

1. get grey / green weapon upgrade to blue and pray you get the blessing you want
2. check melk 24hr shop and pray you get the weapon + blessing you want
3. buy from melk and pray you get the weapon + blessing you want
4. play special assigment where you can get orange weapon in 7 min and pray you get the weapon + blessing you want

and its all RNG

if you want to min max a certain weapon with best blessing and right perk you need around 10-15K plasteel

unicorn blessings are not included T4 warp flurry for staff , T4 power cycler power sword, T4 Surge on voidstrike

[hoary vessel]

darktide kept crashing so I tried to figure out what’s the issue

my computer determined it’s not a game but instead a dangerous application

so if you are crashing or can’t open the game you need to clear it from your antivirus

In case people think they can’t launch it

[void forge]

Avg in particular is known to cause issues

[little coyote]

I recommend not using any 3rd party anti-virus programs, Window's own is perfectly adequate nowadays and anything else is usually more trouble than benefit

[hoary vessel]

Windows is what’s telling me it’s malware

Probably tripped something with the hotfix I mean it’s always something

Simple fix tho thankfully

[little coyote]

Right, suspected as much but with the mention of AVG had to say something 😄

[echo valve]

Anyone know if the many more try mod works with the special assignment (Orthus Offensive)? I can't seem to get it to work.

[void forge]

Why are you trying to get it to work? The mod was originally made so that you could replay a mission with its modifiers intact but orthus offensive doesn't have modifiers so it seems kind of pointless unless you just want it for the quick replay feature

[echo valve]

To play it solo

[void forge]

You can't play solo unless you're offline or have friends willing to get in a private game and then die

[echo valve]

Supposedly with these mods you can

[void forge]

You need a minimum of 2 people in a strike team to start a private match afaik

The mod for solo missions is called solo play

It puts you in an offline game

[echo valve]

Yeah I know of that mod but I am following a guide that just uses many more try to play solo online as you can still just start a match using the commands

Just wondered if anyone had been able to use many more try to start orthus offensive

[void forge]

From the mod creator in his comments " This mod has never been used to play solo. It's not possible, people join any public games anyway. The best you can do is choose missions that have expired for at least 1-2 hours, so others unlikely join"

[echo valve]

Alas

[void forge]

The orthus offensive doesn't expire, people will join regardless

[echo valve]

Damn, hopefully they just add solo

[void forge]

Yes, people have been asking since release though so unlikely

It's to conserve server load or something like that

[echo valve]

Really want to like this game but so many good things from VT2 left out, hopefully they'll be added in time

[quick remnant]

It's sub par bots iirc

[echo valve]

I'll happily play with crap bots lol

Would rather have some version of solo than none at all

[hoary vessel]

Would be nice if that mod worked for orthus, would love to explore the map rework

[void forge]

you can with the solo play mod I imagine

[untold hawk]

Can someone help me get the Don't stop me now penance for ogryn?

[rigid wasp]

quick question waht does exp do after lvl 30?

[vocal nacelle]

Nothing

whats the fastest way to mass update my kmods

[void forge]

mod manager I would guess? idk I just manually update mine

[gritty grail]

What does the Hammerblow blessing actually do?

[woeful root]

impact = more stagger

[gritty grail]

so if a move doesn't have stagger does it essentially do nothing?

[woeful root]

yeah though it should be a measurable benefit on most weapons that do have hammerblows

dclaws would being the example in my head that it wouldn't quite be good with

and the fact that it's better to take damage blessings anyways

besides the crusher where you only have 1 damage blessing

Tldr post is asking about shield of contempt cd, if its per player or as a group, the post hasn't concluded in their testing and im posting it here to see if someone has tested if it is shared in a group cd or individual player cd. 👀

[void forge]

It's per player afaik

[lime idol]

It’s individual 10s cooldown for each of the 4 players, and could trigger on all 4 players at once

[uneven cargo]

So is there a way to stealthily bypass enemy patrols or quietly take out hostiles?

[woeful root]

there are some patrols that you can ignore but either that horde events aggro them anyways or the map design is so linear that you can't avoid them

and pubs spreading out anyways

[rigid wasp]

tfw no vermintide shade backstab chain

[stoic basin]

what does this sentence even mean

[rigid wasp]

it was the funny backstab chain

you would stealth back with each backstab

each backstab was a guaranteed crit

[stoic basin]

never played vermintide

[sterile gust]

Shade was a better death cult assassin

Shade was a menace against bosses too

If you had a shade, grail knight, bounty hunter and ranger veteran the bosses were a minor threat

[stoic locust]

If you had bounty hunter bosses were a minor threat

[sterile gust]

A bounty who could aim and had a purple pot could end everything

[bleak dock]

Anyone know about any Easter eggs?

[quick remnant]

There are references to broader 40k lore, to minis (Cosmetics, enemies, set pieces...)

But not sure ig they count as Easter egg

[warm nebula]

Do we count the free cosmetic vendor as an Easter Egg?

Granted, a late one. She was patched into the job in a random update

[hoary vessel]

you could say day 1 launch that the free cosmetic vendor was a tyranid and i wouldn’t know better, was the zealot and servitor from launch or was it actually patched it later?

[gusty whale]

i think it was there from launch but it was not a catalogue

[warm nebula]

The store was there from launch, but it was a random cyborg that was the shopkeeper. It was only in a patch bout half a year in that the shopkeeper became the traitor

Or was it “the traitor became the shopkeeper”… english hard

At the time it was the most exciting “story” reveal in Darktide

[fluid flare]

no, the store was added in one of the updates

the commissary and the armory used to be one shop, selling both weapons and skins

then the armory moved to be next to hadron, the old location was closed, and a few weeks later the commissary was added

which was staffed by a random servitor, like the armory, yes

until another patch changed the vendor to the traitor

[dapper shard]

AKA Mara Vinci

[warm nebula]

oh yeah, you’re right

Man, how long has it been since everything moved around the Mourningstar?

[zealous dome]

She shows up on every mourningstar cutscene

It's like when humpty was revealed to be the antagonist in the first Puss and boots movie

[fierce hatch]

does anyone wanna help me with the just a flesh wound penance?

[sharp harbor]

Catachan Mk VI Combat Blade or Catachan Mk III Combat Blade? Do they have different uses?

[sterile gust]

Yes

Mk 3 has more assassin oriented heavies and an okay light spam for hordes

While the Mk6 has two horizontal heavies meant for hordes and it's third heavy is an assassin stab. It's light spam is also way better for hordes.

[sterile gust]

^^

[tribal terrace]

Is there plus 3 stam curios for zealots?

[sterile gust]

Yes, there's +3 for all the archetypes

[frail tide]

Is it normal for console players to hot mic the entire time they play?

[dapper shard]

It's a rare occurence whenever I play with console players, so, no?

[frail tide]

https://tenor.com/bR4HR.gif

[zealous dome]

You can mute them if you want

[frail tide]

Yes, I know that. It's more of a curiosity about what I consider common courtesy. You wouldn't chew with your mouth open at dinner, but I have to hear you slurp down whatever your sticking in your face, or hear your kids screaming in the background because you couldn't be bothered to be a responsible person and mute yourself.

[tranquil haven]

Why do so many players insist on defending so low on consignment yard? It always results in
1: No cover
2: a large number of shooters/gunners partially obscured by terrain from high ground surrounding the team
3: a generally long engagement range from all directions hurting weapons that have rapid damage dropoff or benefit from penetration or AOE to hit multiple enemies.

That ledge people defend on isn't even safe from poxbursters or monsters knocking people over it

[vocal nacelle]

Near the exit

Still a bad place tho

[steel quartz]

I just have a question that I can’t answer why is it when I play zealot it just works even on damnation I don’t even have a well defined build I just have knife

[dense tulip]

what build

[void forge]

I have never in my life seen people hold there

[zealous dome]

Really, that's 90% of the matches I played

One of the vets got punched by a Plague Ogryn and landed on the Valkyrie, the boss disappeared right after

No idea what happened that day

[void forge]

Whenever I play consignment yard people just hold the by the train

[zealous dome]

Maybe I'll start dropping medkit and crate somewhere else

[sterile gust]

I mute unless in a party.

[runic grove]

rgr thanks

I just have to write the wepons stats kinda annoying i won't die from it

[vocal nacelle]

Mobility from knife is very safe

[hoary vessel]

There is something so satisfying about the game being almost perfect in hit boxes when a mutant horde is zig zagging through the group and you just ultra instinct dodge and baseball bat their heads off one after another with a power sword

[hoary vessel]

I’m gonna say something controversial

||I think the door opening bug is a good addition to the game||

i say

remove all airlocks

they give us a map

i want the whole map

no variants either

both variants of the maps

let us guess what mission it actually is

[noble widget]

hey all, quick question, how do i upgrade/increase a weapons modifiers? not talking about perks or blessings

[hoary vessel]

the perks and blessing will raise the overall item lvl but the modifiers %’s you can’t

it’s rng

[noble widget]

ah, ok, so i just have to hope and pray that i get a weapon i like with good modifiers and then upgrade that one? oh well, fair enough i guess, thanks for the help

[hoary vessel]

yeah you can check when the normal shop rotates, gamble your dockets rolling whites or maybe grab one as a mission reward, it sucks but it’s one of the major things the next update will rework and no problem

[noble widget]

ah, good to know, then i won't worry too much about gear atm and focus on my Penances for now, thanks again 👍

[lime idol]

The next next major update

The next update is penance system

[rigid wasp]

not sure if tahts the right channel but
how can i make the game stop running like garbage i tried around in the settings tried yt recomendations but dosent help
my main problem seems too be it feels laggy stuttering

[vocal nacelle]

whats your spec

[rigid wasp]

32 gb of ramm
amd Readon RX 6750 XT gpu
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X-8Core
(my screen can support 165 herz tho i normaly run stuff at 120 fps )

[vocal nacelle]

ah its amd

I heard there's issue with amd

[rigid wasp]

ya somthing i learnd

many games tend too have issues wiht amd the gpus are good like realy good but games stil lthend too focus more on nvida gpus as there still mainstream espcaly wiht the big streamers

[hoary vessel]

guys do you recomend any axe with the zealot?

Chain Axe

[karmic steeple]

none of the normal axes are good enough?

[quick remnant]

Some of the Combat Axe are good but I haven't used them in a long time

[karmic steeple]

mmmm okay thx

[torpid kestrel]

Axes are for nerds and firemen

[quick remnant]

Still no Axe for Zharin

[neon galleon]

Mark V Antax and Mark II Rashad are very very strong

[karmic steeple]

ty

[sterile gust]

Rashad with Brutal momentum+Head taker
Go chastise the wicked and martyrdom
Flak+unarmoured

You'll actually be the most unkillable.

I use it on vet and if I can be a monster as melee vet you bet you'll be a monster with zealot.

[steel quartz]

thats the thing idk????

[obsidian hollow]

i dont know if this is the right channel, but what is melee finese bonus?

[woeful root]

finesse = weakspot and crit dmg

+20% finesse = +20% weakspot dmg, +20% crit dmg, and +20% crit weakspot dmg

[obsidian hollow]

they dont stack? wouldnt be +40%

[woeful root]

nah

finesse doesn't stack that

[obsidian hollow]

gotcha

[woeful root]

but if you have +weakspot and crit dmg separately, it does stack

e.g., duellist gives +50% weakspot and +50% crit dmg

consequently, you get +100% crit weakspot damage from it

so there's a difference between having +50% finesse damage and +50% crit & +50% weakspot dmg

[red anvil]

Did they buff monstrosities or nerf certain weapons since anniversary? Just came back to the game and feels like some of my anti boss builds hit weaker than they used to, especially the rumbler

[lime idol]

they nerfed explosion and DOT vs bosses

[red anvil]

ah dang, there goes some of my fav builds. thanks for the headsup

[drowsy tendon]

They nerf bleed sure. But Ulgo apply more of it!

[lime idol]

You can still get them to do more dmg if you have rending / apply brittleness

[gleaming mantle]

when does shop rotate?

and does anyone know of any compilations featuring all the premium stuff for comparison?

[lime idol]

This Thursday (if they successfully squeeze in at least a hotfix patch before then)

[fluid sand]

My mega list of everything I've been able to find and dig up

https://warhammer-40k-darktide.fandom.com/wiki/Commodore's_Ventures

things w/o finished names or models are (mostly) not included

[fallow field]

I wanted to post this to Reddit, but I can't add flairs on Reddit mobile app.

Looking at the Darktide cosmetics menu is a mess.

Reskined duplicate items should simply be an expanding menu from the parent item. Don't make me shuffle through 5 items to compare two reskins. Add an extra "soft click" which doesn't select the item, but opens the item patterns and colours. Then you can shuffle through 5 of the same item to pick the one you want. Has the additional advantage of instead of 6 rows of 3 columns. You'll have maybe 3 rows. And so be able to view all at the same time.

As an aside. The curio menu needs an overhaul too. One long row is a pain to organise. This one you should make a rows and 3 colomn menu.

[rigid wasp]

Imagine using all your screen space and not making an entirely vertical list on a computer game

Lol, lmao even

[rotund pond]

i think in the next update they should reveal the adress of people who speedrun the match so i can go to their house and kick their jaw

fatshark can you implament this feature please

[quick remnant]

How would you catch then though ?

[rotund pond]

You bring up a valid point

I will have the element of surprise, so I will not give them the chance to speedrun away from me

I'm 85% sure yes

Because psyker force sword push will give you uncanny/executor stacks

As the force sword pushes are always weak spot hits

[civic kindle]

is this true for all 3 patterns?

[woeful root]

to be precise, they're talking about the push-attack and yeah it's the same for all 3

Hey all. Is it just me, or the fact that you can't switch to your melee weapon by pressing Q when you're in ADS insanely fucking annoying

why doesn't Q work when you're in aiming mode

[gusty whale]

press 1

it is right above q

can't switch while ADS

Thank you for the insight, Ulgo. Keep up the good work.

When you'll be red you'll be able to post picture (bot issue)

[dark glacier]

Found a Zarona revolver with Damage-80, Mobility-79, Penetration-61, Reload Speed 80, Critical Bonus 80. That any good?

guess i gotta do it this way 😛

[graceful raptor]

base weapon stats dont really matter

even if a weapon has mid stats, its still good

[dark glacier]

hm ok

is dragging your hits a thing in this game?

[void forge]

Yes

[dark glacier]

awesome

[gusty whale]

disappointingly low on penetration, might hold you back from oneshot breakpoints

otherwise usable

[dark glacier]

yeah i wish penetration and reload speed could switch places

hope they add the ability to reroll those things at some point

[gusty whale]

weapon spec enjoyer?

yes, it's coming in patch 25 in 2030

trust 🤞🏻

of course 😛

Siblings! Just wanted to know if you use assails near a demonhost (lets say you are trying to kill a gunner next or near to a DH) would that assail shard attack the demonhost? Didn't use assail when this happened in one of my games just making sure 🙂

[quick remnant]

Not directly, but it cam hit it when trying to hit something behind/next to it

[prisma veldt]

If you aim with the assail in theory it shouldn't hit the dh

or tell me whats best for xp

[lime idol]

higher difficulty missions with modifiers

[shell badger]

whats the difference between the mk6 and mk3 power swords?

[lime idol]

Mk6 can block cancel activation (which still cancels sprint) and primarily uses energized light atks. Its energized push atk also does very high dmg to carapace & unyielding enemies, and it has inherent 25% block efficiency from front

Mk3 activation doesn’t cancel sprint and primarily uses energized heavy atks.

Mk6 is generally the better one rn

[shell badger]

ohhh

thank you

is the stability stat on guns important? i got a columnus with 80 on all the modifiers except stability which is at 46%

[lime idol]

Stability changes recoil & hipfire (braced) spread on weapons which can impact how they feel

[shell badger]

ahh i see ok

guess i just gotta get gud

are there blessings/perks for guns, melee that are generally the best? or does it vary by build?

[stoic locust]

It typically varies on a weapon to weapon basis but there are some that are almost always good, like Uncanny Strike or Brutal Momentum

[shell badger]

will keep an eye out for those then, thank you

[stoic locust]

What class are you progressing btw?

[shell badger]

veteran

just hit level 30 so im trying to figure out how to make a proper build

[stoic locust]

Oh

Give second

[shell badger]

tried one difficulty 5 mission and got absolutely carried by a zealot so i need to fix my stuff

[stoic locust]

Check the first pin in vet chat, your actual best resource

[shell badger]

oh ok will do

[stoic locust]

An extremely comprehensive guide

[gusty whale]

do we have such a thing

[shell badger]

is my best bet at getting power cycler 4 just to keep buying and consecrating until i get one with it

[gusty whale]

yes

[lime idol]

U can dm me if u have questions, that guide is a bit outdated now

[shell badger]

got it thanks

will try and read thru it first

[drowsy tendon]

When using kickback or rumbler sometimes gun not fire but it make sound. How? And how can fix?

[gusty whale]

put more ammo in

[rigid wasp]

True and real

[last hedge]

What do the different MKs of weapons with the same name mean? Are higher MKs just flatly better?

[stoic locust]

They have different movesets and damage profiles

[last hedge]

Ah. How delightfully confusing.

[gusty whale]

some of them are better to make things worse

but they are mostly changed yet similar movesets

[median panther]

So, with the mission changes, such as special condition missions changing from 500 to 250, if I already have 250 when I log in, will I receive the frame and the penance be completed? Or changing total missions from 1500 to 500 if I'm already over 500, etc.

[dapper shard]

Probably the former

Anyone made any progress on “get off me” penance yet. I’ve defiantly been doing it and I have 0/50

Do the T5 dif/location ones you’ll get every penance for the location. I’ve just been going place to place when it rotates then dropping difficulty to grind others like missions played

[civic kindle]

which one is it again?

[restive quarry]

Push dogs midair

then it's progressing fine for me

Hm weird

I think hounds from packs don’t count then

Anyone else's inventory crash the game even after verifying integrity of files?

Any fix for the audio stuttering??

If you had mods you might have residual files

[coral violet]

is this bugged or some troglodyte coded it to not count if you joined after the mission started

[lime idol]

[wanton seal]

Are you able to use to d pad to go left to right for it?

[radiant mirage]

I don't think so but I'll double check real fast!!

[wanton seal]

Maybe you have to move downwards all the way and then move to the right

Can’t believe it took me so long to remember the d pad

I was a friggen Xbox kid damn it

[radiant mirage]

I don't have a pc unfortunately so I'm stuck an xbox person

But I gotta press the left joystick and it WORKSSS why didn't I think of that

[delicate warren]

Im pretty sure that what is called ghosting on monitors. It means that images are appearing quicker then the monitor has time to remove them.

Id recommend to test doing things such as updating graphics drivers, changing fps on darktide to the monitors refresh rate specifications and last enableing vysnc/gysnc.

hi guys i have a problem with the game maybe is for the update because this problem not apperd before

the audio is lag

Has anbybody here sorted the martyr skull achievements for the hourglass?

to complete the ‘battlepass’ with 4500 penance points to get the moebian armor, does that mean we have to complete every single penance or do the penances add up more than 4500?

[final perch]

how else should i modify this knife (veteran with weapon swapping build and infiltrate)

[dapper shard]

Replace Lacerate with, ideally, Uncanny Strike.

Re: perks you could consider Maniac and/or Unyielding in place of one of them (I'd personally leave Flak on)

[final perch]

i use lacerate to help with horde clearing or is the knife enough on its own for that?

[dapper shard]

If you want to help yourself with horde clearing, then consider Flesh Tearer, but Lacerate goes against the identity of the knife. You don't really want to be hitting bodies with it - it has good weakspot/crit-modified damage, whereas its body hits are relatively small re: damage numbers

And if you want to help yourself to a better horde clear... get frag shredder grenades (and grenade regeneration of some sort)

[final perch]

@frank raven

there's a puzzle each map

I was able to get that one with the trauma staff aoe

but yeah that one sucks

trauma staff is actually really good at getting them even when you didn't know they were there since the aoe is massive

Game is running like a fish on land, 7900xtx merc 310, 12700k, 32gb ddr5000

I’ve checked everything and haven’t found a solution

[vocal nacelle]

check launcher setting

maybe some option got resetted

[vocal pendant]

Everything is default

[vocal nacelle]

other reason is the shader cache need sometime to process

or there's a problem in shader cache

Does the game have issues with Windows 11?

i dont know

stick to the team and dont take lots of risks = ez win

[fathom egret]

Learned that “moving as a unit” should be taken seriously. I mostly prioritize snowballers and it gave me confidence that I could obtain the title.

[ruby kernel]

I just finished an auric mael without dying and it didn't count 😭

Does it only count once per instance?

was at 1/5 and did scab melee only no ammo twice

[void forge]

Did you join partway through maybe?

[ruby kernel]

Yeah

[void forge]

Well there you go

[ruby kernel]

hard not to

That's a bit silly though isnt it

[void forge]

No

I believe there are multiple reasons for the way it is, but most likely it's because they don't want people to abuse simply leaving the mission if they are about to die

And also people who join a mission right at the end just getting the penance for free

[ruby kernel]

That doesn't at all prevent that

Might as well make it a private game only penance if it doesn't count for missions you join partway through

[void forge]

Well I meant it more for those who leave and rejoin the mission, not people who just leave and don't come back

Well private game penances are private because they actually require you to play suboptimal sometimes

This is just "don't die"

[ruby kernel]

Are you esl or is your reading comprehension just poor?

Forget it

[void forge]

There is no reason to make a penance private just cause you have to complete a full mission to do it. You're the slow person fucktard

[ruby kernel]

That's a yes to both, then?

[void forge]

"I think this penance should be private, because of x." "It's not, because of y" "is there a problem with your reading?!?!?11?". Lol, lmao even

[ruby kernel]

https://microenglish.com/idioms/might-as-well/

Hope this clears up your confusion

[void forge]

I'm not confused, I just disagree with your statement. There are numerous reasons not to make it a private game penance. You chose to ignore the one reason I gave and you can't seem to think for yourself so I guess I have to elaborate more. Private games are only available to parties of 2 or more, and this effectively makes solo only players unable to complete private penances. In addition, private penances were all at one point public. The whole reason they were made private is because they forced players to play suboptimal and be a nuisance to their team. This does not apply to auric storm survivor

In short, "it might as well be a private penance" is a poor suggestion. Instead they should give an option so that players can choose if matchmaking can put you in a game that's in progress

[void forge]

Did you miss the solo players part? Or do you just not consider them people

Is your reading comprehension slow?

[ruby kernel]

It's an idiom used to indicate something is so similar to the mentioned alternative that it is essentially the same

[void forge]

See how condescending that sounds?

Except they are not the same

I just gave you reasons why

[ruby kernel]

You interpret it as condescension because of some deep seated insecurities

I am not a therapist

Thanks for the info though merging into a squad worked, and i got the penance

[void forge]

I interpret it that way because that's how it came off

Thanks for your suggestion to make it private, they won't

[ruby kernel]

You are genuinely daft holy hell

It was not a suggestion it was an idiom a rhetoric device

[void forge]

Well try to use it properly next time then

[ruby kernel]

Guess i should better know my audience, good point

I'll mark you as my end, to make sure i stick to middle school level simple english when talking to you

[void forge]

Good to know you'll be sticking to your school's curriculum then

[ruby kernel]

Ooh, what a dreadful whiff, completely forgetting that you just showcased that your english skills are poorer than mine

If i'm in middle school then where does that put you?

Guess i shouldn't have expected you to be able to shit talk well

Ah, there is another

[vocal nacelle]

what is this weird interaction

[void forge]

Showcased how? Because all I see is you ignoring the reasons I have for it not being private

[ruby kernel]

We're having a little fun

[void forge]

Yes indeed, having a laugh really

[ruby kernel]

I'm occupying myself during the slow moments of the current auric maelstrom match by sharpening my wits against his, though his are admittedly dull

[void forge]

Still just ignoring them, hoping I'll go away I guess

[ruby kernel]

As i just explained to you, i don't care about your reasons or arguments because you are arguing with thin air

[void forge]

Okay good to know that the penance might not as well be private then

[ruby kernel]

It might as well be, since it wouldn't make a difference

But it ought not be

Because all of the private match restrictions are dull and boorish

[void forge]

It would make a difference, for the reasons I explained less people would complete the penance

And I also gave the only real solution which you promptly ignored, but that's beside the point

[ruby kernel]

I probably did

And since we started talking i formed a strike team with my pub fellows, and we've done about 5 mael runs without anyone dying

Which worked well

[ruby kernel]

Obviously yes

[void forge]

Uh huh, and are you the only one playing the game? Plenty of players have no intention of ever joining a strike team

[ruby kernel]

If you restrict something, on the mean, less people will complete it

[void forge]

Oh, so it would make a difference then

Huh

[ruby kernel]

Yes no shit

Do i have to explain what an idiom or a rhetoric expression is to you for a 3rd time

[void forge]

Almost like I said that at the start

[ruby kernel]

Now answer

ESL or Autistic?

[void forge]

Well you must be autistic then

[ruby kernel]

Take this in good faith genuinely you have at least a little bit of good will saved up from telling me about the whole joining halfway thing

ESL or autism?

ESL is English Second Language

If not you might genuinely want to get checked

[void forge]

I'll go by your own linked definition so I'll know you can read it at your middle school level. So there is a better alternative to making it private, which is matchmaking improvements. And making it a private penance will also mean less players will complete the penance, a significant difference in my eyes. Two reasons why it might not be "as well"

[quick remnant]

Waht the hell is going on here

[void forge]

This guy said that auric storm survivor "might as well" be a private penance. I argued that this is not true, he got but mad and called my reading comprehension slow

The funny thing is I gave him multiple reasons too, which he agreed with

But he just resorts to ad homs
