well now i have widey varying answers, idk what to believe lol
the backstab hitbox can get kind of weird on enemies that arent standing straight and idle (so almost never) but i usually go by their shoulders, be between their shoulders and youll get the backstab
it's 180% in the back
also note that the direction of the attack has no influence on something being counted as a backstab, as long as your player is behind them
235 is base
281 is with ambuscade +20% backstab R.dmg
u can be almost sideways with the enemy and still get backstab bonus
oh i was wrong , my bad
lmfao
tbh its kinda fussy if you are sliding to backstab with knife
also i remember this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qY6Gbu1tgbc&ab_channel=j_sat
Backstab Indicator courtesy of Fatshark.Manny GO CHECK IT OUT: https://youtu.be/RN0_Bg5-NNM

Discord: https://discord.gg/Bwayuwa
if fatshark didnt change any backstab mechanic from vermintide 2 to darktide
I like ur UI and also thank you for the video demonstration, its genuinely appreciated
also where do you go to have a testing area like that?
Meat grinder
It’s opposite to the weapons vendor
On the mourningstar
huh, very cool
Back of the shoulders? Go for the back of the head, backstab and weakspot can both happen
i don’t mean hit their shoulders
i mean where my player model is
I'm a player with hundreds and hundreds of weapons (never sold any). I have a few insanely great weapons, and lots of almost great weapons. What's the best method with this new update to avoid any grind?
Should I be getting as many blessings of all tiers as I can? Make sure not to destroy any promising weapons? What's the consensus? Can't find a reddit post about it but figured you all figured it out.
yea extract all blessing that you can
sacrifice a bunch for blessings, getting god rolls will be significantly easier in the new update, but keep any particularly good weapons you already have
you only need a majority of t3 and t4 blessings to fill out the mastery points of a weapon
niceeeee. What if I have an almost great weapon with a blessing not in my library yet. Keep it or take the blessing?
having a good weapon can help with grinding the mastery points for that weapon in the future
what weapon is it?
u can just screenshot it and send it
Just have a lot of weapons like that. 380's with one great blessing and one crap one that got bricked.
if the stat distribution is good, then keep it
of course
ANyone having trouble buying aquilas ? Cant buy them since yesterday ?!
What's the matter exactly?
it's just loading. I'm not even able to back out.
I need to quit the game fully, and i'm still not able when i'll open in up again
Ok i found the solution ! I needed to re-activate the steam overlay and it worked in secondes (after rebooting the game)
OK, it's what I was going to suggest since it's the most common reason for why something would be wrong with initiating the purchasing process, but I'm glad you figured it out 
Did they do a patch?
A hotfix, yes
Do we have a detailed breakdown of what the power and impact type of stats affect?
Power is damage, stagger and cleave
Impact is the amount of stagger you can inflict iirc
Ranging from small flinches to knocking down crushers
And the exclusive Boss stagger
Intresting
what even does boss stagger other than certain ults and kraks
i guess Rock™ also does
Barrels
Rumbler could, don't know if it's able to nowadays
rumbler needs multiple iirc, cause monstros got chain stagger resistance
and so can void staff with surge blessing and some other boosts
On a side to this, i started playing zealot again and i noticed that the whatever ability wards guys away with the inquisitorial seal, it staggers fleshbags and plaque ogryns but it doesnt stagger beasts of nurgle
Maybe it interrupts the swallow attack but it doesnt stagger
pretty sure you can get bon/cs to stagger without surge just need weakspot hits
I dont think you can after the last pass to buff monstro stagger resistance
okay so I'm trying to do a lot of penances on my characters as i play them while also doing contracts, Right now I'm on my Psyker, Rayne. going after, "Skilled In Psykhana" 89/250. & "Defy Fate" 433/1800. Now i am doing other so ill be jumping & switching back and forth and switching every reset to do others, Now I've tried youtube videos no luck.
Skilled In Psykhana and Defy Fate are play the game and eventually you'll get it done type penances if you have the correct keystones and supporting node chosen.
Perilous Focus is a little harder and a bit RNG based (including if your team is killing the horde or not). Open areas are your enemies. Places like hallways and choke points are your friend. Take Battle Meditation and Perilous Combustion talents (near the top); of course Scrier's Gaze. You can do it with guns (columnus), staves (void or purg), or melee (illisi or DS). If you can get a horde alone, you're in a good place to try for it. Enemy density is also your friend; this tends to translate to harder difficulties.
okay thank you so very much greatly appreciated!
IDK if it's true or not, but I heard someone say that if you have EP stacks, kills from surge staff count for Skilled In Psykhana.
i dont normily care for penances but since im so close i might as well put forth some effort to getting them done XD
im on that right now
should i use melk to get blessings as well or is it advised to keep his currency for now? ive only been getting blessings from brunt
get tier 4 blessing that you havent unlocked
and check the price
below 3K is good
well i got one penances done
fellas, im trying to run a ultra toughness vet build, and need to know what toughness regen effects exactly from curios, little help please. Im trying to figure out if its worth taking
toughness regen is for coherency regen, the regen out of combat/ not getting hit after few sec
not that good on vet
good on ogryn tho
that, sound horrible
coherency regen is the worst source of toughness regen lmao. rip 2 of my curios then.\
wdym rip
not for ogryn
just stack up sniper , gunner resist and you are good
and wait till crafting rework
atleast 1 sniper/gunner resist the rest is pretty free
and use the shout ult 
Didn't they say the crafting rework isn't going to touch curios 
It will remove the lock on them I couldve sworn
Maybe they meant the system in general and not the locks 
"What about Curios? Curios will have their locks removed but they will remain unaffected beyond this change."
I'm dummy
well all i got to do now is get "Skilled In Psykhana" 89/250 penances and im done whoot! for my psyker's
Good luck
is that elite kills with EP?
you can get that with smite really easily
people killing enemies affected by your smite will count it for you
fastest way to get it is probably scab only mostly melee
the rng is finally making me put a las in my mouth LOL
anyone who says theres any randomization in that mf im driving into your living room
specifically 317 several times then 304 like 10 times and one 370 at some point
my confusion is, if its really rng why the fuck do several low levels come up IN A ROW or at least insanely more frequently than the obvious 370+
the brain recognizes patterns in randomization, even when there isnt one
so sorry for the late reply i cant run smite any more have to queil way to much
venting shriek, EP
you can smite for a really long time
Doesn't apply here because if that's the case the stars are aligning for this consistent outcome, someone did an actual graph of it on here once but i cant find it
i’m pretty sure it’s weighted tbh
For sure I was just hoping someone had a quick off the head answer or if someone remember who posted that graph
or some weird code thing prevents it from being random
i’ll see if i can find it
The graph was very well done and it essentially said it's insanely weighted to middle and far low
found it
lock your fucking doors fatshark
you owe me 2 million dockets
its so insultingly weighed lmao makes me want to punch a hole in the wall when i know its like this in a frantic grasp to retain players using grinds and gambling addictions
at least they’re fixing it in a couple weeks
but i think 2 mil is enough to never roll that again
yeah lmao
12 million
doesnt really mean anything to me because i have what i want at a perfect 380 roll i was just seeing if i could do a recon one
12 million is cray cray
i’d love to see this but compared to the stat distribution, and see how many 370+ weapons are bricked due to stat distribution
i have millions left but after 2 mil i just got mad lmao
yeah real
yeah this doesnt even factor in that a 380 is easily bricked tf out
but in the grand scheme a 350 with shit blessings is still good for auric, this is just for people who are bored and want to see how close they can get to peak
To be clear, item acquisition via Brunt's Armory isn't going to have that distribution changed at least the last I read? The range and distribution will still be the same. The difference is that the dark blue weapons may be able to be salvaged thanks to increasing stat bars.
all weapons will be able to m i’m be made 380, so getting a perfect stat roll will be significantly easier with the update
I understand what you mean, but the initial starting point of the stat bar determines its maximum. If it's below a certain threshold, you won't be able to necessarily increase it to where you want it to be. So while you can increase any weapon to its maximum rating once your mastery is high enough, it's only via flat increase increments to all stats at once.
yea, it's still fine because when everything is gonana be 380, we can find good distribution rolls much easier and only choose to upgrade them
I can provide one with 50 million dockets spent on one weapon
Out of 50 million dockets, I rolled 31 380s
i got my fun 1000 hours is good for me i hope they cant turn this game around
did you just do that
No
HOLY SHIT IT'S PEWDIEPIE
Pewdiepie Mewing Era
Hey, I'm in need to guidance. During a time, if I spammed the space bar while moving left, or right, my character would do evades, and only evades. But since some times, he is now switching between evade and jumps. So I end up jumping in front of hordes instead of only evading. Was it a recent change? Is there a setting to switch back to previous behavior?
Hey I was wondering if anyone could help me with a zeal penance?
thats been that way for the entire game, many people (myself included) recommend binding dodge and jump to seperate keys
i have jump on alt and dodge on space
because you arent really jumping that much, and alt isnt that far out of the way
which one?
Trying to get shocking stuff I’ve been doing it In regular lobbies but everyone kills them before I get a chance
you can usually just ask for them to leave a horde to you
Yeah I’ve tried a couple of times but usually no one responds/ doesn’t listen
damnation is the best way to get it, with a weapon like flamer, heavy sword, braced auto
fair
Ah thx
If your not busy with anything else I’d appreciate it
kk
alright i’m on
you can join me through my FS code
it’s in my nickname
Think I did it
Just looking for opinions on this
I love my claw like i love my wife, intensely. But I only recently started playing since I stopped in may, did the claw get bonked on the head? This thing can hardly kill anything anymore I’m heavy swinging 4-5 times at maniacs weak spots to kill them where as before it was about 1-2 and it would kill almost three ragers
Am I crazy or did blessings get twerked or what, the gimmick of mine is it focused on stagger and stagger damage buff
I also notice it doesn’t stagger much at all and I’m either side dashing, panic blocking or watching their wild swings just go through my parry, it still parries but ive also noticed it’ll just not catch them even if the timing is good
@sinful summit
devils claw has not changed since october of last year
it is still very much reliant on crits, so if youre not running shred on it with some crit/finesse talents, then that would explain it
dclaw honestly has one of the worst armor damage profile in the game too, with the parry being the only thing thats keeping it afloat in that department
dclaw barely has any stagger, so impact blessings arent doing much for you since theyre percentage increases of the base impact
and skullcrusher requires the enemy to be in a staggered state to recieve said damage bonus after youve hit them, so youre not going to get any value out of it outside of the horde enemies that you already can deal with easily
i think it is actually criminal that the dclaw has 5 impact/stagger related blessings as a fucking sword tbh
well im here to tell you it did something in auric maelstrom to the point I stopped using my power sword and now it’s hardly fit for heresy
maybe the enemy count fucked with it since it went from facing 3-4 ragers to regularly locking blades with 12+
cleave probably shitting out like a clogged mower blade
dclaw expert
i finally did it after 10 days of gruling play
what that one
2500 barrel kills
has to be from the explosion of the barrel, fire from the fire barrels doesnt count
I'm never getting that one done. 
i feel like i should have thousands and i dont even have the 1st
Because red barrel kills don’t count
Only yellow barrels do
.
horde enemies arent killed by barrels at full hp on damnation
poxwalkers wont die but groaners will from yellow barrels on heresy
malice is your best bet for reliable progress
and you can kill them with red barrels, as long as they die to the literal 1 dmg explosion the barrel does
Grounded yellow barrels
The ceiling ones dont count 
That’s even funnier 
why am I with 1000 hours in this game and still learning the most cursed shit
Well if you want to grind barrel kills you can always spam low level mercantile map
There should be 3 4 potential barrel spawn on the way to hacking area, plus a few around the exit door
malice extra barrel maelstrom
Never bothered checking the regular board 
But that sounda like a good option
Already have 1.7 barrel kills id rather see tox gas/grim speedrun 
just mmt any malice pox gas and run through it solo all day
yeah unless you want to commit perils of the warp you'll need to play something else in-between
hence the "all day"
my cap was 10 solo missions back to back until i wanted to nuke the game off my account
Id rather wait until the 26 who knows if fs cut down the requirement
Already got screwed on the old 1 mil kill and 250 mission types 
well they gotta hand out penance points to the masses somehow
since they're planning to extend the battle pass or whatever you want to call that thing
1>5>15 sounds reasonable
Hey guys im not sure where the right place to ask this is but my mate is having issues with his audio cutting out. It seems fine in menus but it just drops in and out when running around the hub and in missions. Searched the net high and low for a solution but having no luck atm. At a loss 🤷♂️
is memento mori helmet still available to get?
It shouldn’t be, no.
Was it the one unlocked via a code?
ye
played a decent amount of vermintide a couple years ago, brand new to the game, any particular guides or resources that can help inform what class i'll want to play?
not really, zealot is often seen as the most fun
vet is overpowered
zealot is good as a starting class, because it prevents you from like
learning bad habits
and forces you to get into melee
and learn melee
You can check the Atheneum and Ogrynomicon guides for Psyker and Ogryn respectively, which can be found in the pinned messages
Ask in zealot chat for guides
I'm not familiar with vet and zealot guides unfortunately
Vet guide is currently being Updated
Zealots don't write guides

(There's some info pinned though)
Audio cutting in and out is a known issue. Idk if these will help.
#general-chat message
#general-chat message
hey i need help on my melee what new perk should i get i was thinking of either getting flak or carpace damage
im a ogryn
we're too busy playing the game to do so
#ogryn-class can help you, and giving more information as to what weapon youre even running and what perks/blessings it has right now will help
Anyone now how to download mods with the new patch? Just redownloaded the game and my old ones don't work
Same as before, probably have to update them tho. There are mod managers to make it easier. I don't have one so I can't recommend or suject what to do. Otherwise, you can see what's been updated through your nexus account.
I thought this game doesn't support mods
the game only support clientside mods
can anyone help me with mods rq??
Vacuum capsule 🗣️ 📢
im not endorsing that kinda of mod
if dorn were here he’d kill u
Veteran guide is being worked on though its not going to be Published till post UnL Update
Zealot guide about the same time frame
we just patiently await to see what BS the new update enables basically
any speedrunners?
What’s a vet build for Recon Lasgun with Infernus? mine just seems not to get as much damage as I would like it to
There’s a zealot guide in the works?
yes
Can I talk to the author
for sharing ideas and stuff
I don't know, can you? 
Got a zealot at 30 and have just about got my vet to 30. Think it's worth just working on leveling classes while waiting for the update?
don't see why not
Any big differenced between the shock mauls? I can't really tell
Movesets
different movesets, indignatus is the best of the two imo
is there a way to avoid nurgle grapple?
outside of running out of grapple range
esp when he Blines at your as
Infernus seems not good to me
I am using it but, generally it doesn't add anything? Pretty sure volley fire is better
It is very satisfying to use though
infernus only really comes into effect against bosses, reapers, and bulwarks
other than that, you dont get a lot of value from it
it certainly can help
2sec
dumdum and headhunter is a really good combo
Sustained fire not volley fire my bad
I think that the burn dmg from infernus is = or less than the bonus from sustained fire
If you have the + ogryn & monstrosities talent
Since it's gonna stack on weak spot or crit dmg
And burn is just gonna do burn
the bonus damage from dumdum is larger
30% damage from dumdum
close range is i think 12 meters
its not very close at all
12.5 meters to be specific
it was changed in secrets of the machine god i think
got buffed increased
also dumdum is a buff to yourself, not a debuff to enemies, so when its stacked, all shooting will deal increased damage
so its really helpful for clearing out larger groups of shooters/gunners too
Nice
Someone help me run some damnation missions please
NA?
I’m Australia lol
No servers for Australia so idk what I play on
#📌communities message try here
What are the pickaxe neice and which one would you recommend?
all 3 depends which one you like
but branx is my favourite
Do you focus on anything specific, such as heavy spam or something when using it?
Hey, so I redownloaded the game recently, and I’m quite enjoying it. But I have a question, do I need a 4 tier perk and 4 tier blessing that I want for a god roll? If i’m pleased with the roll distribution?
If you're happy with it I guess not
as long as they're t3 at least
itll usually be fine
few breakpoints rely on a miniscule difference of t3-t4
haven't played since launch, anything i should take note of now that i'm back? any things i really should or shouldn't do?
the only major gameplay difference to core combat i can think of is that dogs can now be pushed very consistently
well how about the fact that you can now dodge ragers
and also the bulwark shield nerf
yeah that too
Hey guys! I don't know if here's where to ask, but I was wondering: What's the best all rounder build / class? My friends and I are looking to do some of the harder content in the game, but I'm the only one currently at the skill level to do them. A more solo carry / 'broken' build would go wonders. Thanks a lot!
psword plasma voc vet
nothing it can't handle
Awesome, thanks! Is there a link to a specific build with all the keystones / tree filled out? I'd imagine I can feel my way through and get 99% of it correct
but I'm not the best at picking correct passives / curio aspects
And thank you again!
something like this
tysm!
curios something like this
and weapons something like this
i'm not 100% on the perks but there is a vet weapon guide in the vet channel pins that can tell you more
tysm again
Chainsword + Bolter pistol + Commissar outfit = I wish the bolter pistol was better
It’s very strong u just kinda have to build grenadier with it
it will be on the 26th
But that actually is a top5 veteran build
Ooo
the bolt pistol itself is not strong
And maybe top5 build in the game period
Yes but boltpistol enables that build to go from “strong” to “lol what”
Same build same thing 
the bolt pistol just has an unintended interaction
we’ve had this discussion before
explode.
nobody, it just seems unintentional
If Ogryn’s +%blast radius talent increases power maul’s explosion radius
that’s a talent vs a weapon blessing
Same thing different slots
what's the interaction
if your bolt pistol has lethal proximity, shredder grenades have a much larger explosion radius
@lime idol runs the build sometimes
he says it’s the top 5 vet builds
sure that seems perfectly reasonable
so it turns them into large area horde clear then
yeah
because the way that DOTs are inflicted from explosions, the bleed has an absurd range
2 grenades into a horde and the entire horde and any elites are dead
I don’t run it
Gale ran it for a while
shhh
Wait
I thought lethal proximity was for bleed stacks
Why does it increase the range? 
puncture is bleed for boltpistol
lethal prox removes the arming distance
@rigid wasp
Oh
But that one doesn't mention range either, does it?
Holy shit this game is weird
it also increases explosion size
meant originally for the bolt explosion
Fatshark and "meant originally for", name a more iconic duo 
never thought about this, but it likely does, considering looking at a version of each mark i have has a different damage profile than what you sent
damage, that is
what is the current level cap ?
30
Jeez is there any other way to get more Talent points ?
30 lets you get all the way to the end if your only pickin 1 thing per tier
That the best way to go about it ?
Some build exist without picking keystones
It doesn’t take all 30 to get from top to bottom
Unless you use some absolutely fucked routing
anyone know if the cheese for the on overwatch penance on vet still works? the one where you just down yourself at the start and stay down for the mission
Pretty sure that was patched long ago, and it's easy to get normally anyway
It wasn’t patched
Huh, I've heard from a couple people that it no longer works, guess I was wrong
still works
wonderful thanks a lot
meant originally for all explosion radiuses
unless they change it in an upcoming patch, assume it to be working as intended
In terms of mats do aurics have a higher average?
Damn
Is orthus worth it more for the easy mats?
Wanna grind a few blessings but need so much plasteel
Not really. Depends on how quickly you do it + I don’t think Orthus has idols
How much does idols give again?
50 on Damnation, up to 4 can be found on regular levels
1 Damnation map on completion can grant up to ~1000 plasteel, without accounting for quick play bonus either
although its 30, XP is getting tracked.
mods like ''true level'' makes you see the theoretical level of players based on xp earned.
might not mean anything but maybe they'll improve the level cap system someday, i don't expect more points for the perk tree but i'm hoping for a kind of prestige thing or something for cosmetics idk
aurics only give a small amount more dockets
your best method for casually grinding mats is quickplay damnation
Yes. Level 30 is max.
If you see footage of higher levels, that's from a mod.
if i make another operator does it transfer like if im lv 30 in ogryn do i become lv 30 with zealot
New character = needing to level them up. Even if it's the same type / class of character.
could anyone help me with a private game penance?
which ones?
its a psyker one for the monstrosity, psyker is all i play
I can help out. Are you on right now?
my bad, yes im on rn!
Cool, just add me to your strike team (my code is in my name)
Anyone wanna give me a hand with "Just a Flesh Wound" for Zealot? I'd be down to help with anything you want done as well.
Sure, you on right now?
yup
If so, add me to your strike team (code in name)
what zealot builds can trivialize the game
Knife zealot, rashad zealot
But honestly, if you build around the talents - duelist, inexorable judgement, holy revenent, and second wind
You'll be fine with most weapons
what does ij give
attack speed, damage, dodge distance
i c
i can't find holy revenant
and i just found it
ignore me
Martyrdom Crusher
whats that one about
It's about stat checking every enemy with your 40% extra melee damage and 20% attack speed
You do have to learn how to use the Crusher though
i'll put that on the to grind list
for ij are the additional 2 nodes good
the dodge gives 3 and toughness regen on use
which revolver do i want
Can I neglect the penetration stat for the combat dagger?
Zarona for the meta
Agripina for the cowboy time
The dodge one is good
The toughness one is optional but usually redundant
for dreg ragers how do i deal with them with rashad
is it just headshot them with the overheads?
am i supposed to 1 tap them
my current axe
Push attack light
Push Attack staggers them
no shot
And once the update drops, Rashad will have better heavies against maniacs
does push attack need to headshot
Don't think so
ok, discovered the tech
now i can left click heads and afk
true rashad experience
zealot is like crack now that i'm feelin the flow
And with one stack of Headtaker your push attack will be able to hit 3 dreg rages
Lmfao
lmao
Is there a good information Darktide youtuber, I’m watching this person named Tanner Lindberg, they seemed to know their things but. I don’t like that channel
Telopots
I can’t really recommend anyone else, I only watch telo occasionally but the man’s knowledge and heart is in the right place when it comes to teaching certain essentials in this game
TANNERPOSTING
the dodge node is good, the toughness node isn’t
it’s really not a lot of toughness relative to other talents
what other key talents to look at
anyone else having hude game freezes when they move their mouse fast?
if i move it slowly i get a smooth 120fps but the game just dies when i move my mouse
even in the psykhanium facing a wall looking at no enemies it does it
The alt fire is a stagger attack, bit of a windup but it will stagger a rager even if for a moment
could be mods?
update ur mods, verify files
that’s really all i can think of
the push attack will stagger 3 of them
so the special is kinda useless
happens with mods on or off
rip
I think I was talking to someone with a similar issue, though I couldn't really figure it out
ive:
verified game files
updated drivers
tried XeSS, FSR1, and FSR2
tried just about every graphics setting on/off
restarted my pc
mods on/mods off
completely lost
Someone having what I assume is a similar issue in New World
oh wtf
dropped it from 8khz to 2khz
I heard The First Descendant has a similar issue
Wacky gaming tools

Maybe companies should spend less money on RGB and more on making sure the fucking hardware works
you made that up
that's not a real thing
Don’t watch tanner
If you want the best sources of info, seek guides over YouTubers
agreed with path, tanner is a really bad source of advice and is overall just really annoying
almost all of his takes regarding darktide are wrong
Depends on the guide
Ogryn & psyker guides are ok
Idrc abt the myriad other steam guides that don’t fully know what they’re talking about
idk who helmia is but why is there a bot in every lobby now
thx to the zealot guidance from here i have now become a rashad left clicker
for zarona surgical handcannon how long do i need to hold it to hit the breakpoint for crusher
as long as it takes to get a crit
theres a mod you can get to see your crit chance
is mod installation through steam?
ok i'll check it out
you can likely find out how many stacks you need by just by finding out a few different things
crit chance is additive, and you start out with 5% innately
your revolver critical bonus stat will give you additional crit chance, on mine i have +21%
so for me thats 26%
if i am running piety and its currently active (which it almost always is), i now have either 15-25% more depending on what nodes i took there, making that now be 41-51%
so i would only need 5-6 stacks of surgical to reach 100% crit chance in most situations
with the mod that meow was talking about, heres a exactly what i described, the red percentage just under my crosshair is my current crit chance (the revolvers crit bonus is applied the moment the bullet is fired)
What does dialogue trim volume do in the settings?
pretty sure it’s decreasing game volume when dialogue plays to make it more noticeable
i need help with compliting some mission called overwatch and untuched can someone help me about it
if is there some squad that can help me achive this mission i will be glad
I am a new player -- what is the maximum rating cap for weapons? How does that work? I am just levelling up and I'm level 20 and the ratings for guns seem to be slowly getting higher although I'm not sure of the mechanics of it, and I'm not sure at what rating I'm going to start getting guns that I will be able to keep into the end game
At level 30 you start getting the weapons you're meant to keep, but they still have their own little details like the percentage rolls on stats
The rating is more of an idea of how good a weapon is, but it also is just a sum of what it has without regard for how it synergizes
For example, you can have shit tier 4 blessings and perks on your 380 weapon with the smallest stat being the most important, and it'll be the same number as a god-tier weapon with good perks and blessings
@quick remnant @rigid wasp oh I see, I definitely had misconceptions. thank you guys
another noob question
with Hestia's Blessings, as I go through the Reward Track do I unlock everything for all classes? Or only on the class that I use to pick up the reward? As some rewards like at 100 prestige (I'm not sure what it's called) give an Upper Body cosmetic. If I pick that up on Veteran does that mean I also get the equivalent on Zealot and Ogryn and Psyker etc, or only on Veteran?
ok awesome, thanks!
for zealots is the reason people don't go stunstorm nade cos they want to save perk points
The right side has some goated benefits for crit builds
i wanted to go down purely for the second wind
But it's 4 points investment and i'm not a knives enjoyer
ended up doing something like this since i dont have the second wind toughness regen
wonder if i should take the ij toughness regen node
What's the deal with Rashad zealots? I've seen none in game but multiple posts about them. nvm
No until death

im ngl im not usually the first one to die so i didnt bother with until death
is the clutch potential of that node that good that i should swap back to it?
It’s not just the clutch. The node allows you to do a big silly and get away with it, while significantly reducing the risk of post silly recovery.
It allows for skill expression in terms of taking big and small risks, depending on situation, and not worrying nearly as much about recovering if the risks pay off (or not)
sure i'll take it then
the right side gives you second wind, which is among the best toughness generation talents in the game
and throwing knives are very fun
and you can often get more value out of them compared to a stun or incendiary grenade
it grants you a safety net from fatshark™️ moments, (mauler inside a bulwark, silent overheads, etc), and as long as you aren’t disabled, you will never die to chip damage, as you can usually stay alive the 90 seconds with ease
this is with holy revenant in mind*
Does joining missions through quick play count towards penances such as "complete x missions in a row without dying on malice threat or higher?"
idk if i should ask this here but what's the endgame loop basically? rolling weapons from brunt's armory?
Replay missions and try different builds
i already like doing that
I don’t suggest rolling at brunt’s armory rn because crafting system overhaul is in 6 days
ye i figured
what are the top 5 monstrosity dpses in the game rn?
Are you asking about weapons that kill monstosities quickly?
ye
thunder hammer, mk15 eviserator, gun psyker (particularly columnus IAG),
I’m thinking about Flak armored damage
yeah flak should be good
Is zealot knife build about bleed nowadays or just pure crit
I see some with flesh tearer on perks
Mostly rending (Uncanny Strike) and either Finesse (Precog) or crits (Riposte)
But Flesh Tearer isn't horrible, either
Precog to hit breakpoint?
That I won't tell you, I'm mostly typing from experience what I typically see in loadouts
Bleed is giving "some" consistent damage if you don't have boss aggro; otherwise weakspot hits are preferred
Odds are scourge is going to cap bleed on the boss anyway
but bleed can also overlap with other bleed sources, so there is some redundancy if you have more people in your lobby using bleed
you’ll do more damage chunking them down with just attacking them
stealth lets you do a ton of damage
I saw a Zealot obliterating Daemonhosts and I have no idea what they were doing. They were intentionally activating them and killing them within 10 seconds. What weapon can even do that?
I swear they didn'thave thunder hammer. There's a really unique audio queue of the charged attack and I never heard it.
you might have just not heard it
but it could also be stealth knife
there’s a trick to stealth that lets you attack twice with the stealth buff
or it could be a mk15 evis
I'm going to assume I didn't hear the charge up. I feel like I'm famliar with the Stealth Knife, and even with 2 attacks I don't think they could've killed a daemonhost in the speed I saw.
under the right circumstances, you can deal like 20k boss damage with a stealth knife
per hit*
what difficulty were you on?
It was my second Auric Heresy ever
heresy
yeah it was probably knife then
knife or thammer or mk15 evis
evis is less likely though
Does anyone know if joining missions through quick play count towards penances such as "complete x missions in a row without dying on malice threat or higher?"
they do i’m pretty sure
Could've been a Devils claw, their parries liquify daemonhosts
I really like the Devil Claws. I had no idea the parry was considered that good.
The parry is terrifying
Its damage
and because daemonhosts spam light attacks with no stun you can just parry spam at it
does anyone know if haymaker works on the karnak twins?
no , it doesnt work on healthbar entity 
unfortunate
It totally does! But the chance for them to get 1-shot gets reduced to 0.001%!
well that sounds fun
wtf, where are you seeing these numbers? Are these in game?
Can someone dumb down the itemization update? Should I be stockpiling on weapons and why?
Aren't all weapons gonna be able to be BiS or..? How does it work now when we're trying to min-max our weapon stats?
Don't delete weapons, as locks are disappearing
d
Can anybody help me with "Just a flesh wound" in a private match?
- Only casino layer we will have is rolling for best "potential" stats. All weapons can reach 380 stat distribution.
- Locks are now gone, replaced with a mastery (weapon XP) system that allows you to unlock and slot what you want
- Stockpile your weapons, you can sacrifice them for mastery on weapons
- Train go choo choo.
#vox-lfg-lexicanum Might be able to find a group in the LFG channels
Ok, thanks
yes, if you inspect a weapon, you can view attack breakdowns
all weapons will have a weapon potential, which is how their stats will get distributed when upgraded to 380, so all weapons will have the potential to be a 380 base rating weapon, making achieving god rolls much easier
weapons will have a mastery system, where by using the weapon, or by sacrificing weapons of the same family, you will gain mastery points that will unlock blessings and i believe cosmetics for the weapon
weapons will be able to be swapped between marks back and forth as you wish, and locks will be removed entirely
you can also sacrifice other families
but for a lesser effect
anyway when force greatsword?
I guess I assumed it was like the Zealot's Crusher where the special action doesn't show damage.
activate specials unfortunately don’t show their breakdowns, but attack specials will
so parry, dueling sword special, tac axe special, etc
will show their breakdowns
Haven't played in a minute since before the patch, can you rebless as many times as you want or is it binding?
Locks are dissapearing, and update is on the 26th
can anyone help me with the malleus monstronum penance for pykser?
anyone able to help me out on the the malleus monstronum penance for psyker?
whats the best class or beginners?
Zealot
zealot, you can learn the most important part of the game, melee combat, very quickly on zealot
i'm lvl 11 in psyker rn but i just keep dying lol
cool cool i played a couple months ago and i already have a lvl 6 zealot so i'll main him
psyker is rough for new players, a level of skill and game sense is required with psyker, something you can really only gain with experience
nice
now i just need to find people yo play with lolz
yeah lol
i’d offer, but i’m probably not gonna be on tonight
nahhh its all good! we can play sometime in the future if u want
people are on pretty often, you can always ask in #vox-lfg-lexicanum
alright, i’ll let u know if i do
i’m also a zealot main so i can give u build advice as u level
it allll works out
niceeee
I'm open during late nights if you wanna play!
lets do it!
when you wanna play?
cool cool i sent a friend req just do u know
yup, accepted
Can someone help me with the "on overwatch" penance?
which one is dat?
Don't get hit with melee on malice or higher difficulty
Sure, we can try
Add me to your strike team. Code in name
its dont take health damage from melee
its way easier than you think cuz of that
You can grab a high stagger or safety weapon like standard shovel or knife and just focus on defending yourself if you get into melee
Work lots of pushes into your normal combos and keep your toughness high
Like Cole said, it's only taking health damage that stops the run. But 100% or gold toughness can just eat a melee hit no problem, making shout veteran incredibly good for this. (as he is everywhere else)
So when i buy from Blunt/brunt whatever the ghastly fuck he is armoury, is it just luck how good a base weapon is to start with?
Yes, if you buy profane bases
yo i need someone to push 7 ennemis out the cliff
After level 30 it's luck. While leveling, he'll have low bases available. It's why people don't recommend investing in gear much before level 30.
hey all, i'm new and all and i'm just wondering, if the ogryn's a big barbarian type, the veteran an fps type, and the psyker a mage type to put it roughly, what's the zealot's deal cus i'm having a hard time understanding what it's supposed to be?
if that makes sense anyway
alr thx b0ss
cleric/paladin, but not like, wimpy life clerics, cleric of war type shit
in actual gameplay? depends on the weapon, the faster weapons and stealth build feel more like a rogue, slower weapons with chastise are going to feel like you are a holy warrior charging into the fray, and flamer + relic is just purging the enemy in "holy" flame
can you put it in fortnite terms
i cannot
which eviscerator is the best for zealot
and what is the moveset combo for horde and single
i wanna go some sort of ij flamer build
No brain one is XV , light spam for horde rev heavy attack for elite
Have more complex moveset
I remember the horde combo is push attack light heavy or something
rev heavy again for elite?
Yea
Flamer?
ye i wanna run evis flamer
Unyielding, flak (?)
Blaze away
Quick reload blessing
aite thx
Anyone else getting the extremely bad loading bugs? what i mean is after you do a mission and win you are just stuck on the loading screen forever, at first i thought if i waited a bit it would just load.... 2 hour's later and it was still not loaded back into the Hub area so i thought seeing that it is not going to load i'd just alt f4 or just exit the game because normally it loads fine like in 1-2 mins.... so what i'm getting at if you haven't figured it out by now is WHY IS THIS AN ISSUE? why does the loading screens not work after a mission randomly and just keep you there after all the bug fixes the game has gone through at this point?
both are good, mk15 is better, but mk2 is horde clear with meh single target, mk15 is amazing single target with decent horde clear
maniac unyielding, blaze away, inspiring barrage/quickflame, but the update is gonna add a blessing that’ll be good, rending, and overpressure will also be fixed
rev for mutants, ogryns, maulers, and ragers, everything else doesn’t really need it
aite
what does Impact mean? "Thunderstrike: Target receives 4 Stack(s) of +10% Impact if already Staggered. Lasts 5s"
impact is more stagger 
what does dreg and scab mean
Let's say that the enemies have two health bars
One is for their balance, so Thunderstrike adds extra damage to that
But yeah Impact is stagger
But there's also weapons with low impact but high stagger
Psykers dueling sword special poke
Tactical axe
Cleavers uppercut
Speaking of impact, stagger and cleaver
Get your Ogryn a cleaver and a standard shovel
Go around the psykhanium punching stuff
Don't forget to punch crushers
And shields
A question. Does dying in Auric Maelstrom fails a streak for Auric Exemplar (10 auric missions)?
Yes

does this mean they can't stagger say heavy enemies but they send ones flying when they do stagger them?
also is there any reason anyone would ever want Thunderstrike? when it just adds more impact to enemies already staggered
on ogryn shield you can stagger crusher faster with 2 heavies ? i think
Also stagger have a multiple "level"
There's flinch, stepping back and knocked down
are both scab and dreg gunner considered flak armoured?
or is dreg one unarmoured or maniac or something
Black one is flak, yellow one unarmoured
Maniac is specials and naked rager
do they have different HP?
Maybe?
Scab has 1200
Dreg has 1400
Nope
Low impact high stagger means that some attacks can flinch or make the target step back
Some even stop mutants if you hit the weakspot
Which means you gotta learn how your weapon and its moveset works
Now, weapons with high impact can knock enemies down (with a few exceptions)
Remember Cleavers and Standard Shovel punches
Cleavers have high stagger
Shovel has high impact
On the punchs that is
That doesn't mean that the normal attacks don't have them btw
Everything is weapon, talent, enemy dependant
Fatshark and their under the surface mechanics
smash a rager in the head with a hammer, you'll stop him for a moment
With thunderstrike you hit him again and now he's on the floor instead of already swinging
stagger blessings arent very good with the exception of trauma on the crusher, most other times its better to take power/damage blessings instead
thanks a lot guys
isn't it recommended to run atleast 1 curio with toughness regen delay?
No
Not really
yo guys where do you bind jump ? I have it on space as default with dodge but sometimes when im spam dodging my character just jumps and it's a derp
Space. I have dodge on Shift.
i like alt for jump
bad opinion
"You're batshit insane"
anyone encountered bug where character suddenly stops running? you hold shift w and they suddenly stop and you have press shft w again to get going...
Do you use toggle to run or hold ?
hold
used to be fine half year ago, now I came back, updated the game and mods... and something is not right
Does it happen after being hit ?
no no, random moments
Then that is strange, maybe try changing the key, maybe it has a false contact
might be your keyboard connection, i've had smething similar
Change the key?! I shift+w ran my entire life!
Anyway, thanks, I just wanted to know whether its something maybe other experienced with the new patches; since it doesn't look like, I'll look on my end
If you're on PC, there's a mod to stop that fucky-wucky from happening
Gamers, I have a funny question
Does anyone else crash the game by pressing the . on the keypad?
It's like a dedicated crash button to me 
Odd
really ?
any idea what this mod is called?
Prevents you from jumping when you accidentally press the dodge+jump keybind too quickly. Works on keyboard and controller.If you are having trouble getting the mod to work, try updating y
May the God emperor Bless you brother
💪 
can i buy curious at melk to get a 21% health one?
its rng
Most of the time Melk with have curios, but not always. I've only ever seen him have a max % heath or toughness curio once across all of my characters. You're better off checking the hourly shop instead.
so the 250 curio from him is not worth it i hear?
If you want to get as many curios as possible, without resolving to hourly rotations at Brunt's, this is probably an optimal method
it depends on how you value the ordo ingots, though, i.e., melk bucks
is weapon mastery bugged? I sacrificed a bunch of weapons and did a mission and didn't get any mastery
yeah i cant upgrade my weapon , and it resets all my blessings as well, even that i unlocked all blessings a second before
Give it a bit
So everybody has the issue of mastery tree not registering unlocks?
So weird, earlier I was able to unlock some stuff and it remained
I have a problem since this patch, Looks like the mastery for items does not increase when I sacrifice an item , instead the item is returned to inventory and no xp is given. The message "Sacrifice complete" still shows though.
Yes im having this issue , how did you fix it??
I think the servers might be having issues or something
with weapons it says stuff like 78/80% damage etc. what does that mean, why 78/80?
it means the weapon is at 78% damage stat, and if empowered can reach up to 80%
so it's current/max
ohhh got it ty
hey guys im not getting exp on the weapons when finishing the level. is it bugged?
yup
update isnt finished rolling out yet
ahh alright thanks
Still in maintenance
Anyone got some issue for Mastery?
i played some missions and got no weapon xp at all. anyone else experiencing this to?
Same
most of the new features are temporarily disabled
Servers are restarting to fix those issues.
Such as like maxed mastery's by random.
And getting scammed lmao for removing weapons.
Also not getting any exp.
Cheers
i got a problem i cannot unlock masteries for weapons :< any idea?
Servers under maintenance
The Max Vertappen ?
Also under maintenance e
does anyone run numericUI
I have question regarding masteries. Since i have over 550h in the game and today i logged and there are no masteries on any of my weapons , does it mean they think i will give it another 550h to get to the point where i was or where does my masteries went?
Servers are under maintenance
It'll show properly numbers soon
thank you for info , i hope omnissiah didnt forget of all of my deeds
Hello! I have a little problem, but can't find where to ask my question >w<
I can't cap my FPS.... either via the in game menu or the nvidia options :<
Could it be frame generation turned on?
I will check once loading is done
it was on
but need a restart, will see after the misison
Thanks for the answer o/
So we lost all the blessing we had before?
A same dmg percentage on different weapon (hammer and axe for me right now) translate into different dmg right?
2 msg in an hour here. oof im in the wrong place.
eh you mean if you deal the same amount of damage?
No the weapon has a damage value when you hover over it
Does anyone know what they added to this update? Did they change weapons??
are you on steam?
No xbox series x
open this in a browser
Ty ty
It seems I am a dumb mf. Where can I access this window?
open ur inventory, there’s a tab called mastery
Cheers
yeah ofc
WIth the new system, Brunt's store refreshes can't come fast enough lmao
So are the days of stat fiending over weapon over? It’s just use whatever you feel most comfortable with? There’s like 4 level 300s in my inventory that were definitely not so flat with their numbers before the update
Anyone figured how this new power system works?
480 grey weapon?
How?
GG DARKTIDE IS DEAD
any mod users know what mods are causing the CTD when trying to access hadron?
There have been several articles explaining it...
Wow smart guy
Mr I have all the articles and have been reading every dev blog the minute they come out
Its quite simple really, you have to play to level up your gear so you can level it up
So smart that instead of explaining it he just ominously refers to it with a passive aggressive comment…
I know that
ok then what don't you get?
I mean how do I know what base stats to use
Because 380 used to be the best you can get, not everything is just the same number
Play & Find out for yourself, theres no objective answer to this
I didn't read anything. I have enough IQ to figure out things, or ask concrete, specific questions instead of bitching
lol this guy
More paragraphs
Go back to lvl 2 missions bro
you are bait @normal sable
Mr. Clown is on the spree, guys
does evis mk15 have any crowd control vs ragers
Very good
Iirc light attacks stagger them
Push attack staggers them
Heavy staggers them
Rev heavy kills them
thoughts on tactical axes?
How do i unlock blessings now? my weapon is max consecration and mastery level 16 but i cant select any blessings
Light attacks have a target cap of 4
Won't damage but will stagger anything else past 4
And rev heavy will bring everything down
Maelstroms
Anyone else seeing issues with sorting weapons by name? Sorting by rating or rarity seems useless now, but the weapons are all over the place
Having many hundreds of weapons stored has really come to bite me in the arse
it groups up weapons with the same name(not mk). use the (doom)scrollbar until you find the group you want to silo somewhere
so, in a nut shell, RNG in the game now become finding gear which points are distributed optimially among the 6 stats?
does anyone have the same problem as me where sometimes the mastery points and unlocks keep resetting ?
Anybody figure out the new auspex puzzle?
does the Quickplay XP bonus apply to mastery xp?
Anybody feels degraded performance after the update?
Keep the little ball away from the borders
My performance went up tbh
Thanks man 🙏
I don't get it
I got it fixed now. thanks
Weird how it works huh
Hello, I'm still new, only 27, with the new update, I can't find how to get myself a vraks MK V autogun, it's not in the shop, is it only the agripinaa MK1 available
I’ve tried the new mission auric damnation and the snipers are aids. They’re a few wagons in the back with a horde in front of them so I can’t really blind shoot them. Any advice? I’ve tried surge/smite psyker, trauma/dome psyker and stealth/smoke veteran and nothing had much success. All attempts ended at the last defuse before the boss
yo guys how i upgrade lvl of my weapon? like i got legendary lvl 400 how i get it lvl 470 for example?
Buy it
Go into inventory
Go to your weapon
Press marks or whatever on the top right
Anypne Problems with playing the game right away? When the mourningstar is loaded my game crashes. Probably an AMD Problem?
I am confused my blessing library seems to be empty did they wipe it on purpose?
Can someone explain to me how my weapon had a perfect distribution but upon Upgrading it, they got lowered?
Yes, you can unlock them at the mastery tab in your inventory
is there like a steam guide somewhere that documents the best ways to do penances?
can the train spawn as a maelstrom?
can someone give me a quick rundown on how the masteries systwm works?
cause from what it looks like its separate from blressing correct?
how do I redeem the points? I am clicking and nothing happens
I am having that exact same problem
hey yall, i got a question about experience perks on curios, will it affect the exp we get for weapon mastery?
new update
why are all of my talent tree presets wiped
ugh
does the new party finder only check for people in the same morningstar lobby?
hard to imagine with 12k concurrent players there's 0 lobbies open
is anyone elses framerate cap not holding?
override it with nvidia control panel settings
is anybody's empower page looking like this
is mastery XP linked to how many you kill with the weapon or is it just going up because of mission completions? more mastery on harder difficulties?
Seems linked to mission experience, I did the new train mission then a old strike mission but the strike mission paid out more exp wise
So snagging missions with conditions could be a decent way to speed up the mastery leveling process 
seems to be just base mission difficulty
or maybe it rolled a maelstrom that gives exactly the same experience as hishock5
one of those statements is true
Noted I’ll pay more attention in my next missions to get a more accurate example, I appreciate the input 
Anyones game crashing because of Nvidia recording software?
damnation train gives 15k
a bit shy off 1/2 regular damnation mastery
might worth grinding a bit
Anyone else experiencing complete inability to get framerate cap working? Ingame cap setting does nothing, I even set it manually in Nvidia Control Panel and that still had no effect.
nvidia control panel seems to be working fine for me, overrides the game settings even
wanted to ask if anyone experiencing the frame rate cap not working?
lol, exactly the issue I'm experiencing
check nvidia control panel again?
frame rate cap has nothing to do with nvidia
i even checked the config file it still says 90
where can you find the config file for the game? I'd like to check mine to see what it says. Also Nvidia Control Panel can, normally, set framerate caps with program specific settings, that usually then override the ingame settings even.
But in my case nothing is working, control panel or ingame :(
depends on the computer but it should be in your Appdata folder in the users folder
yeah nvidia isn't working either
ill try restarting the computer
found the config file, but the only setting referrencing framerate i could find is this:
nv_reflex_framerate_cap = 4
what does that even mean? It definitely can't be 4 frames a second
It's the 4th option of the table from top to bottom
Welp, after restarting my pc now it works. Go figure. So for anyone else experiencing the same issue, maybe a restart will fix it 
What worked?
