gameplay-help

[fading brook]

the framerate cap setting

[zealous dome]

Not the good old on and off tech lmao

[azure granite]

I already tried that but I think I found the problem

[fading brook]

I may or may not have offerred a little incense to appease the machine spirit of my pc too

Shit

it's NOT fixed

the cap worked on the main menu but now it isnt working again

[azure granite]

It's a mod

I played the game in vanilla and it works fine now

[fading brook]

in any menu the cap works, but if im not in a menu it doesnt work

damn, I don't want to play without mods though, because mine are all quality of life that ought to be in the base game

[lime idol]

Same issue here

Frame gen is 2x of whatever in-game fps cap is

And doesn’t follow Nvidia control panel’s limitations

[azure granite]

yeah i confirmed in the modding discord

i just need to figure out which one it is

[lime idol]

I reported the issue in forums

[lime idol]

Wdym which one

[azure granite]

when I play the game in vanilla the frame cap works fine

[lime idol]

With the FSR3 mod before this patch?

Yea

[fading brook]

if you figure out a specific mod is causing the issue, please @ me which one if you don't mind

[lime idol]

I used that too but I uninstalled that mod after this patch

Since no need for it anymore

[fading brook]

These are all the mods I'm running:

1:'dmf'
2:'BetterMelk'
3:'crosshair_remap'
4:'DarkCache'
5:'Healthbars'
6:'KeepSwinging'
7:'MyFavorites'
8:'scoreboard'
9:'true_level'
10:'weapon_customization'

They all appear to be working just fine with the latest update, no hitches I've been able to run missions and whatnot

[lime idol]

These mods are all fine

[coral violet]

you're not supposed to be having dmf in the load order

[lime idol]

Numeric UI bugged out for me, I uninstalled it

[azure granite]

these are the mods not currently working:

[coral violet]

true level works

[lime idol]

Yea true lvl is working fine

[fading brook]

I have an auto modloadorder mod, maybe that's why it's in that listed I copied, all i know is it works so uh i guess it's fine?

[coral violet]

yeah it just does nothing

[azure granite]

I'm not sure which ones causes the FPS cap issue

[coral violet]

you sure its from mods?

[fading brook]

I'm not, i have no clue

[lime idol]

@azure granite lemme know if u find a fix for Nvidia control panel’s frame cap for FSR3

[azure granite]

when I play on vanilla the issue is gone

[lime idol]

Vanilla as in no frame gen, and no fps exceeding cap?

[azure granite]

yes

[lime idol]

Yea it’s their implementation of FSR3 that’s being weird rn

It’s not a mod problem

FSR3 generates at minimum 2x of ur native framerate

[fading brook]

Also, for me my framerate cap works as long as I'm in a menu of any kind, but as soon as I leave a meanu it reverts back to uncapped

[lime idol]

If u cap ur game to 60fps it’ll generate 120fps

[azure granite]

I dont use FSR3 tho

[lime idol]

The frame gen function

Is FSR3

[lime idol]

Because menus work as intended of being capped

But FSR3 generates 2x when in gameplay

And this 2x framerate is somehow bypassing Nvidia control panel’s frame cap which is weird

[fading brook]

Thanks, this actually just provided me with a roundabout fix. I set cap to 40 fps, and now I have an 80 fps cap outside of menus

[lime idol]

Yea that’s what I did

[azure granite]

I'm not using that either

[lime idol]

Wait what’s ur problem then

[azure granite]

this:

ok I fixed it, you need to turn on FSR3.1 frame gen then turn it off again @fading brook

for some reason one of the mods overwrites the frame rate

[lime idol]

The issue is
At <60 native fps
There’s unfixable screen tearing with some attacks

Turning on vsync doesn’t work

So what I actually want to do is

[azure granite]

this is why I always just use DLSS, FSR sounds like a nightmare

[lime idol]

60fps native
Turn on fsr3
Then cap with Nvidia control panel to like 80

Except somehow fsr3 in DT is bypassing Nvidia control panel’s frame cap

Never seen that happen ever

[fading brook]

so in other words, fuck AMD ?

[azure granite]

no, just turn off FSR

[lime idol]

I think it’s just DT’s implementation of FSR3 being weird atm

[azure granite]

im sure they will patch it

[lime idol]

Because I’ve played other games with FSR3 and it’ll still obey Nvidia control panel’s frame cap

Not here somehow

[azure granite]

but what happened with me specifically was that the mod for some reason didn't allow the fram rate generation of FSR to overight the frame cap

[fading brook]

Well thanks everyone, turning off the FSR thing worked

[azure granite]

also what is the point of turning on FSR frame generator?

ig it is for really low end comps

[azure granite]

it can tech work if you set your frame cap to 40

[sinful summit]

currently for me the game can only run with fsr3 enabled

if im past the character select screen, the moment i disable it, my graphics drivers hard crash

instantly

since the update

[azure granite]

the problem with the frame generation as well and why I hate it is that it creates input lag

in games where you are not GAYMING hard, it doesn't matter

but in Darktide, split second decisions and muscle memory are important

[lime idol]

It does but it’s only like 10ms for me so I’m ok with it

[azure granite]

i think I can deal with it if I just force myself to play with it on for a week, but until then it makes me feel slow

[lime idol]

I’m gonna try to reinstall my graphics driver and see if that fixes the control panel’s frame cap bypass by DT

If not I give up & wait for patch

[astral cave]

since when does moving the camera cancel a revive?

[white night]

How can you tell what your base power for your weapon is?

They changed it so you can't see it anymore when browsing the armory.

In the inventory too.

[dire barn]

Anyone know what's up with some people not having max mastery on some weapons even though they had all blessings for it pre patch?

[meager quail]

I'm assuming it's due to the weapon family since we can swap b/w them freely now. If you have max blessing in 1 wep of the family but not the other, the conversion points will be different

[fiery loom]

the way its calculated is still strange for me. I've never touch or unlocked anything for combat axe since I wasn't a fan of it, yet it started out at rank 12. Meanwhile weapons I've almost exclusively used (all in a family) and unlocked all blessings are starting out at ranks 1-3.

[dire barn]

It's for heavy sword and all of the blessing at all levels for them have been claimed. It's a friend's account, so I don't know more specifics. IDK what's up.

I will pass this on tho.

[gentle otter]

anyone know why i cant apply any blessings to a max mastery weapon? all blessings are missing

[vocal nacelle]

have you claimed all the masteries?

[dire barn]

Check your mastery points again, they might have reset.

[jolly osprey]

hi, i cant upgrade weapons https://i.gyazo.com/8516606a27152045e16c2d81f6a2d962.jpg
the button is shy

togged off mods, didnt fix anything

verifying files now

[signal gate]

fuck with your resolution and fullscreen/windowed/windowed full screen

and alt tabs

it's a bug

[little coyote]

NumericUI works but sends out error messages every new menu

I just disabled the messages and I'm all good without noticeable difference

Also have not noticed any issues with TrueLevel

[willow zenith]

anyone run into the "failed to decompress" problem? not running any mods, have verified twice

[amber nimbus]

anything i can do to reduce my ping? i'm sliding around levels like its an ice rink

[lost smelt]

So I can refine and rebless a weapons as much as I want now? No more limited to 2 things?

[quick remnant]

Yes

[sinful summit]

comments for the mod have a fix for it

[little coyote]

oh nice, didn't see any when I checked

[twin bear]

did you figure out a solution to this? i checked that i have no scaling on windows side, tried changing between fullscreen & windowed modes in game, and upscaling, and I just can't get the empower button on the screen

ah, there was a more recent discussion of this also

okay, hitting alt-enter twice WHILE having the empower page open solved the issue for me lmao

[wet narwhal]

i just did a fullscreen mode and alt tab back in

[twin bear]

right, thanks 🙏

[dense sundial]

it doesnt affect exp from weapon mastery at all, thanks for being the most unhelpful and useless person in this discord, saying nothing would have wasted less of my time

[tepid perch]

Is maintenance done yet? Still got no effective mastery

[vocal nacelle]

its done

bit buggy for me i need to check hestia first and starts clicking to claim the mastery point

[cedar dune]

Whenever i swap to boltpistol my game crashes. im using mods. Anyone with similar issue found a fix?

[vocal nacelle]

have you tried not using mods?

[cedar dune]

Idk if you're trying to be funny but obviously yes, hence why i said i use mods. im looking for someone that did use mods and encountered the same issue.

[vocal nacelle]

okay are you using weapon custom mod?

[cedar dune]

I was, i deleted it and deleted crosshair mod along with anything that changes weapons or their ui elements so far.

[vocal nacelle]

and any mod on this list

[vocal nacelle]

you might want to delete the bolt pistol config setting if the game still crashing

[cedar dune]

I still had Numeric UI from this list, nothing else. deleted it and gonna try again. thanks for the help so far
Edit: worked

[cedar dune]

What's the medal thing to the right? is it xp?

[vocal nacelle]

yea its xp

[raven bridge]

i can't do a rolling steel operation , can someone say how to do it ?

[undone moth]

look for it on the operations screen

and click it

[raven bridge]

bruh

[undone moth]

i ran a few just fine

[cedar dune]

If you mean the mini game, its basically use WASD to move the ball to the middle. but the ball is very sensitive and will bounce around hard xd

You keep it from touching the walls as much as possible until the loading bar finishes at the top right, the mission objective

[raven bridge]

i mean mostly boss and enemies

[cedar dune]

From one of my runs an Ogryn pushed the boss off the train xD
just keep running don't stop, 1 person always protect the defuser. When boss spawns just dps him as fast as possible, he doesn't have much hp and 1 person on mobs is enough. I did it mostly in malice/heresy so idk if these tips are good

[crystal hawk]

can anyone tell me what does +% impact ( like in Deathspitter blessing) do ?

[raven bridge]

ok

[sinful summit]

you kill them

idk what else you mean by that

[cedar dune]

idk if this is 100% true but i've seen the boss shield take WAY more damage from my melee attacks than my gun. no matter which melee/gun i used, the melee always did more damage.

[sinful summit]

void shields take reduced damage from guns

[cedar dune]

Oo now i know its 100% true :D

[cedar dune]

my god thats massive

[sinful summit]

the twins are a more unique case

but this is the void shield for normal mission captains

[raven bridge]

i get this mission a lot because of quickplay and yet i couldn't do it

[tired coyote]

The new update just dropped but what the F HAPPENED!!!!! I CANT SEE THE MK IV THUNDER HAMMER IN THE ARMORY ANYMORE!!!!!!

[cedar dune]

click the "Marks" button when you're on the hammer in inventory

[cedar dune]

now all weapons of the same "family" are joined and you can swap marks freely between

[tired coyote]

screenshot pls? to explain?

[cedar dune]

See top right

[tired coyote]

yeah but i mean in the armory when forging it from brunt

[little coyote]

you just buy the one variant and change it to one you want it to be

[cedar dune]

if i understood correctly now both hammers are in 1. doesnt matter which u upgrade

[cedar dune]

Then u can use the "marks" to swap between them and keep the upgrades

[little coyote]

or at least once you get enough mastery on the weapon to change them freely, it's a pretty early upgrade

[tired coyote]

the weird thing is i already have a mark 4 TH but when i look in the armory i cant see it available

[cedar dune]

u see for my shovel i buy any of those 3, and in marks i can swap between them. for your hammer, just buy any hammer you see, then go to marks and u can change it to mark 4/whatever the other is

[tired coyote]

...Hmmm i'll try it and see

[little coyote]

you only buy the 'base' version of each weapon type, then you can change it to different marks in your inventory once you have it unlocked through mastery

[tired coyote]

ah ok, i just already had the types before the update is all, was just wondering on how to get more but thx for explaining how it works now

[little coyote]

no problem

[slim citrus]

i just searched bolt pistol n hopes someone was having the same issue, ur game also was just crashing the second u pull out the bolt pistol? what was the fix?

[cedar dune]

@slim citrus Check this list and remove any mods you have. i managed to make it work without removing true level. But the ones that def were the cause are Numeric UI, Any crosshair mod and any weapon customization mod.

[slim citrus]

i disabled crosshair remap and fixed it so u could try n re-enable them

[cedar dune]

Oh so the main cause was the Crosshair mod? the others i listed work with it?

[slim citrus]

apparently so yes

[cedar dune]

Sweet ill try that thanks!

[candid sparrow]

Can I use DLSS and AMD frame gen at the same time?

[vapid dew]

No

[stoic iron]

dlss is nvidia

[mortal flax]

looking at the new blessings and master rn

it is possible to level all of the blessing eventually correct?

[little coyote]

yes

[mortal flax]

i see that mastery goes up to 20 but there are a lot more than 20 blessing upgrades

cool good to know ty

[little coyote]

you can see the bottom progress bar and there are rewards per levels

[mortal flax]

oh

im blind

i see it now

[little coyote]

the level up points do not come with levels directly

ye

[mortal flax]

+3 +5 etc

awesome

i also see that the rating unlocks are also there

[coral violet]

yeah you can power level it with just plasteel and dockets

mass buy weapons from same family from brunt and get them to green then sacrifice

dont waste other weapon types and if they are already mastered just dump them to get dockets and plasteel back

you should be 20 across the board in like 1 million dockets and ~20k plasteel

[mortal flax]

wow ill have to test that ty

[slim citrus]

so how did the game decide the mastery levels my weapons started at? how is one of my most used weapons on zealot (the crusher) start at level 0? but my chainaxes, a weapon ive used like...twice is level 15

[coral violet]

randomly? i logged in after maintenance and my 100% voidstrike with like 400 experience levels was mastery ~12

some people say they had roughly 3/4 completed and logged in to full 20s

[slim citrus]

so bizzare, did u by any chance also only have like 2 of ur voidstrike staff before the patch? i seriously think it was just based offa what weapons are currently in ur inventory

[coral violet]

nah i had like 20 in all flavours

[slim citrus]

alr then i truly have no idea

fartshark moment ig

[coral violet]

i think everyone who logged before maintenance got the true conversion and after maintenance counted the new ones as missing

no other explanation

[slim citrus]

omg my fire staff is level 8 bro what is this

AND MY LIKE 6 DIFFERENT PSYKER BUILDS HAVE BEEN RESET BRO I DONT EVEN REMMEBER WHAT HALF OF THESE WHERE

mannnnn i heard psyker got some changes but i didnt think they'd just full reset me like dis

[wide swift]

My special event isn't updating even after doing 2 missions extracting with a scripture. What am I doing wrong?

[coral violet]

i havent ever played this damned thing and it was level 10

[coral violet]

were those specifically event missions? regular missions dont count

[wide swift]

that will do it

thanks

[zealous dome]

Blessings unlocked before this patch

But yeah there's some discrepancies going around

No idea why or what causes them

[fathom kite]

If I have xp bonuses on my reliquaries, does it apply towards weapon xp?

[karmic zenith]

Hi i have mastery lvl 9 but no points and i am unable to unlock any blessings is that normal?

cant claim any rewards from mastery pass

[coral violet]

it does not

[wide swift]

aaaaaand grim in an object we can't get to. Thank you fatshark

Anyone know a way to get it?

[signal gate]

Close and open the menu again

If not restart game, if that doesnt work send a ticket to fatshark in #🎒support-issues ort

[patent zephyr]

guys, is the performance of this patch worse or better? my fps drops a lot more that on previous patch

[karmic zenith]

I already did because i played shock maul - lvl 0, i have over 450h in the game and non of my weapons are over lvl 10 and i cant unlock any blessings over lvl 2 what a joke

[wide swift]

Check your graphics settings, make sure AMD frame gen is off. It was turned on by the update somehow for a lot of people, and it makes your shit worse if you don't have AMD hardware

[patent zephyr]

👍

[wet moon]

Can someone tell me why all the blessings I've already unlocked are gone in favor of having to unlock them all over again for this new system? Or is this a bug? 🤞🤞🤞

[hardy nest]

I think the new mission is too hard.

I regularly play on auric level missions, and I've yet to succeed.

[hardy nest]

Please refer to the info regarding the Itemization update.

[signal gate]

I beat it twice yesterday

With randoms

Just gotta speed through

Protect the minigamer

[wet moon]

All my blessings I had unlocked for my range and melee weapons I no longer have them unlocked, why is that ?

[signal gate]

Mastery page in your inventory

[coral violet]

one guy focusing on plinking shitters+horde and its a breeze

[signal gate]

They made a video on how it works on top of the patch notes explanations

[coral violet]

you add another optional anti-shooter and its pretty much unfailable

[signal gate]

Much like clandestium, it is experimental

[manic cliff]

Has anyone else's game been really choppy since the update? Like for me it says my framerate is fine and isn't dropping but visually it looks like it's skipping frames or looks like there's missing frames.

[void forge]

try turning off fsr and restarting

[coral violet]

it was for a couple of matches then got back to normal

[void forge]

if it only happened for a bit it could have been the game rebuilding its shader cache after the patch

[manic cliff]

Thank you, that seemed to have resolved the issue!

[void forge]

no prob, happened to me too

[topaz magnet]

So....we have to go back and re-earn all the blessings that we already unlocked?

[cedar dune]

Does this apply to guns or just melee?

[placid shoal]

Both

[void forge]

brother it says all weapons

then again it is FS so I dont blame you

[rotund pond]

fellas im having trouble, after the update my FPS has gone from 120 to 90, any reason why?

yeah, its running like shit...

[rigid wasp]

Maybe it changed the frame generation and upscaling settings

[rotund pond]

you were correct

im a moron

[vivid gate]

Some blessings mention Strength rather than Power now. Is there a difference or is that just FS calling the same thing two different things?

[olive prairie]

It's in the patch notes #1

General Power is now known as Strength.

[lime idol]

Strength is what power uses to be
The new “power” they added is related to upgrading weapons

[olive prairie]

Is First Target supposed to apply to everything hit in a single swing? One of my weapons with lower Damage but high First Target does more damage to the second target hit in a swing

Nevermind I don't think it does, just some perks I think causing it

[tulip breach]

Is the unrelenting horde event working properly? I have run 2 missions now with max scriptures and no progress for me or my team

[void forge]

are you playing the new modifier?

[hard plank]

Question, I haven't played darktide in a while and just came back yesterday, I mostly understood everything except this one about stats. As you can see the damage stat is 77/80 along other stats similar. Assuming you can raise it to the 80% max, do you consecrate it to max it out or how do you do it?

[smoky ember]

that thammer is kinda eh, low pen and not 80 first target

but as for increasing stats

you're right, the second number is its max potential

to increase it, you must have the weapon mastery high

[hard plank]

Ye it is meh, I just used it as an example

[smoky ember]

mastery can be increased either by sacrificing weapons or by using it in missions

consecrating adds perks and blessings, empowering increases stats

[desert forge]

just updated and found that I've lost all of my blessings. this is gonna be fixed right?

[hard plank]

Ahh empowering increases stats, how does one empower it?

[smoky ember]

at hadron

its right under consecrate

[hard plank]

Thank you~

Emperor bless you

[supple island]

I am having problems with unlocking blessings not saving in the new mastery tab. I have spent all of my points on every weapon 4 times now and yet only 3 of them have actually kept any changes. is anyone else having this problem?

[fathom kite]

My scripture/grimmys are going past 14 for the event, anyone else having this problem?

[terse hill]

This also helped me. Thank you

[scenic field]

Where can I find the progress I've made with getting Scriptures and Grimories for the event?

[vocal nacelle]

hold tab and press E

[scenic field]

Thanks. One of my mods was blocking it.

[amber nimbus]

Anyway I can reduce my ping? I’m sliding around the train level like it’s an ice rink.

[vocal nacelle]

Maybe you got put into wrong region? Try check your region?

[hushed pier]

Building a knife for my zealot - what blessings do I need to do as much damage to monstrosities as possible. Anyone?

[simple furnace]

pardon me, but how do we complete the special event? I gather grimoires and scripture but they do not seem to count toward the event. is this a bug? or am I doing something wrong?

[stoic locust]

It has to be on the specific modifier

[simple furnace]

okay I was not aware. what is the modifier needed?

[stoic locust]

The one from the event

Thought that was made pretty clear

[simple furnace]

I must have missed it

I dont see the modifier needed

[smoky ember]

absolute max boss damage will be +unyielding, executor, precog, with blazing piety

and purge the unclean

[hushed pier]

Thank you kindly o/

[smoky ember]

yah of course

[smoky ember]

oh also take duelist

in skill tree

[simple furnace]

I cant find the mention of any modifier needed. what modifier is needed?

[vocal nacelle]

It got something moebian on the modifier

[vocal nacelle]

And the horde is different

[smoky ember]

the modifier symbol is the inquisitorial symbol

the big golden I

https://tenor.com/view/inquisition-symbol-warhammer40k-imperium-of-man-gif-15421385

this symbol

[simple furnace]

oh okay thanks, that was not made clear in game

[hushed pier]

are we lookin at Shroudfield too?

[smoky ember]

oh

yeah

you can do good with that

i personally prefer chastise

but shroud will work well

[wet birch]

do autoguns dump mobility or stability?

[signal gate]

mobility

basically no reason to ever not dump mobility/defenses/collateral as long as your damage/dps stats are all 80

the system is just that much easier

[wet birch]

well both give accuracy, but other than that neither are dps stats

[molten raven]

Flame Resist affects Flamer's Tank Explosion?

[coral violet]

what flame resist?

[rigid wasp]

The curio perk

[blissful geyser]

Feel like I'm possibly missing something in the UI or forgetting reading something about my issue here - looking to buy a MKIV heavy eviscerator from brunts but seems I can only buy the MKIII. How do I go about acquiring one?

[smoky ember]

go into inventory, look at ur evis, in the upper right is an option called “marks”

you can swap marks freely there

[blissful geyser]

thank you so much 🙂

[smoky ember]

yeah of course

[stable thistle]

anyone have any tips on what i should be looking for when trying to craft a weapon?

i only see 280-320 stuff in brunts armory for the most part

[dapper shard]

Good spread of maximum potential modifiers, ideally 80s in at least 3/4 modifiers

Modifiers to look out for vary from weapon to weapon

[stable thistle]

doesnt the item level still matter though?

[dapper shard]

But mobility/defences can typically be low (~51-60)

[stable thistle]

like something like this

even if i consecrate it to orange, wont i still need to spend a ton of mats to empower it all the way?

[dapper shard]

The higher the item level it is, the less resources you will have to use to empower the item to its maximum level.

[dapper shard]

You will, yeah.

[stable thistle]

wow i didnt realize how expensive empowering would be

guess the timesink has to be somewhere lol

thank you for info though, do you have a recommended resource for checking what the common dump stat is for weapons?

i didnt see it on gameslantern

[dapper shard]

I’m personally sitting on a lot of plasteel, but I imagine it can be a chore for people with less play hours

[fervent kraken]

hi, new player here, i've done 10 missions so far and failed 7 of them (mix of first and second difficulty) 🥲 is it necessary to have people you can play with in voice chat to be successful at higher difficulties?

[dapper shard]

Nope. Mobility/Defences typically don’t have to be 80s, but I typically don’t allow/want modifiers like Damage or Stopping Power/Penetration go below 80. It all really depends on how comfortable you are/aren’t with not having perfectly crafted weapons

[stable thistle]

sounds good, ty

[dapper shard]

I’d personally be fine with having low stability on a shotgun, but otherwise you may look for a version that has 60 in mobility instead of stability (and 80 in everything else)

[fervent kraken]

nevermind, i checked the subreddit and failing missions is expected 👍

[dapper shard]

I attend quick-play frequently at highest difficulty with no voice involved - it really depends on how well you all can handle what the game throws at you, but it’s not a requirement overall

[vocal nacelle]

What mission, because sometimes new player got baited into playing orthus offensive and they don't know how it work

[rapid fjord]

Has anyone had an issue where if they try to capture darktide with audio through discord, it crashes? And if you had discord on admin, darktide will just hard close app 30 seconds after startup without a record in the log or in the event journal?

[silk willow]

does increased exp on curios affects mastery gain by any chance?

[open crescent]

not sure, but I do know that it's relatively easy to master a weapon by crafting one, consecrating it once, and then sacrificing it. It's like 2 weapons per level and a bit more for the later levels

just make sure you are making the weapon you are sacrificing for for the 5x bonus

Does anyone know how to sell items now?

Never mind, it's the same way but with a new fancy menu. It says "discard" though instead of sell which made me think I wasn't getting things for it

[haughty cairn]

How do I tell what a stat does? I keep seeing things that buff "Strength" in the masteries tab but I cant find any info on what "strength" does

[zealous dome]

Strength is damage, stagger and cleave

It had the name of Power

[haughty cairn]

Is that why Icant find anything about it with google? The name changed?

[zealous dome]

Yeah seems like it

[wet birch]

is upgrading greys to sacrifice a bad idea?

[coral violet]

if you have the plasteel go for it

the difference in mastery between orange 500 and green 320 is so small you might as well scrap them to make more greens

[still grail]

how do i fix this?

[tepid perch]

Why tf does empowering change the max stats? Game baits you into empowering a weapon only to switch up the max stat potential once you actually do it.

[vocal nacelle]

window mode -> snap it to the top , it should resize the screen

[smoky ember]

rounding error, it’ll be fixed soon

[signal gate]

Sounds like you need to focus on improving your fundamentals, did you complete both sefoni tutorials?

[smoky ember]

you said this like a chat bot lmfao

or like clippy

[signal gate]

Im trying to reform my image

Smh

Guess im off to die

[smoky ember]

ur becoming professional

ferret girl into ferret woman

[tepid perch]

It's not completely rounding since it changes by 2%

[smoky ember]

well it’s going to be fixed anyway

​​What's the fastest way to level my 5th through 8th characters chat

[frail scarab]

Is the skip account wide, I have the skip

[void forge]

Yeah

[frail scarab]

What difficulty

[void forge]

If you can find a premade to do damnation with, that's the best exp probably. Pubs damnation may get dicey with Randos though

Premades will also be on board with hitting the bells right away, you may need to actually communicate with people if you want to do that in pubs

[coral violet]

you can also just teleport in and kill yourself to get uprising-like rewards effortlessly and fast

[frail scarab]

Weird, it's not tping me

[void forge]

You can't do it with bots afaik

[frail scarab]

Oh

That.. Sucks

[void forge]

Never actually tried by myself

[dusk gazelle]

I've noticed that the game has been chugging a bit since the update. I remember some one mentioning to turn off something in video settings but I forgot what it was. Any help?

[rigid wasp]

Frame generation, upscaling?

[halcyon ivy]

guys regarding the new upgrade system, lets say I want to speed up plasma gun progression. Instead of playing I can just buy plasma weapons from the shop and sacrifice them ?

i did not really get how this works

ah nvm I got it, now you can sac any weapons to increase mastery on any weapon and I accidently pumped it all into shovel, oh well

[dusk gazelle]

I figured it out the game is running a lot smoother now.

[steel tulip]

You can sacrifice any weapon and it'll contribute to your weapons level. However, weapons of the same family will yield more exp (significantly more exp). So, if you want to push for a LOT of levels for one particular weapon family you might be interested in buying a lot of weapons of that family and upgrading them to Green and sacrificing them.

[halcyon ivy]

ah I see that is good to know thx

[solemn zephyr]

Where can you find the flash mission? I initially though that that was the new rolling steam mission, but after finishing the mission I found out that wasn't it since I didnt complete the penance.

[smoky ember]

that penance is an old remnant from old ideas , as far as i know, you can’t complete it

[solemn zephyr]

Ok, thank you!

[astral peak]

quality update as always kek

[opaque steppe]

hey there, used to play quite a while ago and just came back, mostly a fan of psyker and zealot, what weapons should I be focusing on and still lacking good weapons for either class, what should I be looking to run builds and difficulty wise and which weapons should I definitely focus on for the new system? preferably ease of use stuff

[rigid wasp]

You should have some mastery from playing before, so you can pretty much use the same stuff you were using and then crafting greens of a specific weapon type to give to Hadron to speedrun your mastery

[opaque steppe]

yeah but liek psyker got entirely reset and i dont have too much mastery and dunno how its looking with builds rn so was trying to see if i could get some suggestions on where to invest first

[zenith falcon]

hey, I really want to get a Columnus Infantry Autorifle, but it seems I can't craft it. Is the only way to get it from the random daily and hourly shops?

[opaque steppe]

if its just the correct mark ur missing, u can swap ur guns over to any mark for free once u unlock it from the blessings leveling

[zenith falcon]

Ah I see, thank you!

[agile wigeon]

How do I go about getting better weapons? Look for one with good base stats and upgrade it?

[atomic flame]

Hello, can you get 80% on all weapon stats?

[opaque steppe]

no, 380% total, so usually 80% on ur 4 main stats and 60 on the other

[scenic field]

For the Falter blessing, does the increased ranged stagger apply all the time? And it doesn't specify weakspot hits for that ranged stagger. Is this just a unconditional 30% ranged stagger increase? Btw, this is on a Shock Maul specifically.

[graceful marten]

Alt-tabbing always puts me into windowed mode, anyway to fix this?

[smoky ember]

no, it was a bug a while ago as well, it’ll likely get fixed soon

as for now, just use alt+enter to go back into full screen

[graceful marten]

cool, thank you.

[hollow meadow]

do i have to equip my highest power level item to increase the level of my drops?

[vocal nacelle]

no its not vt2

but get to level 30 first so you can get the max potential weapon

you just need to buy few grey weapon in brunts

check if the stats are correctly allocated and empower/upgrade it to 500 power (around 2K plasteel)

[tepid perch]

Did they break the blessing, weapon or both?

[signal gate]

crusher never had amazing carapace damage on H1 at baseline

i'm pretty sure

[tawdry horizon]

is there something special you have to do for unrelenting hordes? i finished a diff 4 mission with 3 scriptures but have 0 progress still

[signal gate]

it could wear down crushers doing H1-L2 loop with some PAs

[signal gate]

it has to be an infected 21st modifier

[tawdry horizon]

ah, ty

[vocal nacelle]

did you pickup the scriptures? with blue shirt horde

[signal gate]

actually wait, your damage isn't going up with scrusher

[signal gate]

who picked them up doesn't matter if the team has them, scriptures not on the infected 21st modifier won't count

[karmic summit]

In the new update in Brunts Armory can you only purchase one version of each weapon type? For example I want to try the shock maul MK III but my only option is the MK Ia. Do you just have to find other version in other shops now?

[tawdry horizon]

if u goto the weapon in ur inventory u can swap marks

[karmic summit]

Ah I'm blind thanks

[sinful summit]

if youre referring to skullcrusher, the extra damage is only applied if they are currently staggered when you hit them

in this video, he stops being staggered just before the moment you hit him

[tepid perch]

It's still broken, it doesn't last 5 seconds from the hit while staggered

[sinful summit]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1046913589614747719/1288748112839708672/Darktide_2024.09.25-20.01.mp4?ex=66f849f5&is=66f6f875&hm=e7b978231dc08c5a24d247ca4b6a42eff02a3362d995280905893926d1658433&

it was working just fine for me

[tepid perch]

You only tested one hit from stagger which you can see in mine as well. Look at subsequent hits within the supposed 5 seconds debuff time frame, it didn't work for me.

[sinful summit]

it is working

[tepid perch]

lad you still tested a single hit... that's just the same thing as before

hit for 5 seconds after debuff

[sinful summit]

yes, the damage falls off because they are no longer meeting the requirements for the damage bonus

they have to be currently staggered for it to work

you have to stagger them again for the damage bonus to occur while they are debuffed

[signal gate]

okay so it was just debuff tracker being semi innaccurate

makes sense

[tepid perch]

Not the mod, the blessing itself.

This thing is pathetically bad

[signal gate]

no and no

it's just worded poorly

you can stack on the target, and that lasts 5 seconds, but they have to be staggered for the damage bonus to apply

and crusher is one of if not the best zealot weapon

like he 2 hits a crusher on vid isn't that evidence enough that you should question things ?

[tepid perch]

i was obviously talking about skullcrusher, not the weapon...

[signal gate]

scrusher isn't bad either lol

it's 80% damage on combo/beatdown weapon

[tepid perch]

it's pretty bad

[signal gate]

he 2 shots a crusher cause of it LOL

[sinful summit]

heres a video of skullcrusher on the standard issue shovel

[signal gate]

sorry there isn't a world where 80% damage is bad except the one where you used thrust by itself so the crusher stabilized itself between swings

[signal gate]

^

[sinful summit]

this is a shovel

[signal gate]

TIL how skullcrusher specifically works, and now i'm not taking thrust on crusher tbh

slaught scrusher for days

[tepid perch]

killing a crusher with two charged heavy strikedowns at max slaughterer stacks with an ability is supposed to be impressive?

yikes

It should be doing that but it also should be doing more if skullcrusher was working

[signal gate]

it is working why you dying on the hill

[tepid perch]

more as in applying a functional debuff

[signal gate]

you using it wrong, partially fatshark's fault for shoddy tooltips

but it's pretty straight forward, skullcrusher stacks only provide their damage if the target is still staggered

he literally 2 shots a reaper with a SIShovel

3 shot correction

[tepid perch]

So can you actually describe what the debuff does? Because what you described isn't the debuff it should be

[signal gate]

Yes it is

Target receives 1-4 Stack(s) of +10% Damage if already Staggered. Lasts 5s.

It’s poorly worded

But the debuff is “10% damage if the target is already staggered”

[smoky ember]

great clip but the beginning of it irritates me because oh my god i hate plasma

[signal gate]

The stacks last 5 seconds yes

[smoky ember]

oh that’s a heresy clip

lmfao

[tepid perch]

10% damage that lasts for 5 seconds while the target is staggered doesn't actually make sense. The debuff is checking a condition on a per instance basis so the 5 seconds isn't even badly worded, it's straight up misinformation.

[signal gate]

Don’t assume malice

[tepid perch]

...

[signal gate]

The 5 seconds is accurate to how long skullcrusher stacks last

[tepid perch]

Dictionary.com defines misinformation and disinformation as: Misinformation: “false information that is spread, regardless of whether there is intent to mislead.”

[signal gate]

But it is not the stagger state

The stagger state does not last 5 seconds and it is what decides if the damage bonus is applied or not

[signal gate]

Because it’s not misinformation it can just be read both ways

[smoky ember]

it is confusing, poorly worded information, but still correct

[signal gate]

Literally just adding brackets or commas to certain parts changes the interpretation but how it functions

Attacks apply 1-4 5s debuff stacks of “10% damage if this target is staggered” up to 8 stacks

There this rewording is smoother and i made it on the fly

[tepid perch]

Yeah i can tell because that changes the blessing's function

[signal gate]

Ahhfhdh

Okay im going to bed

[tepid perch]

Skullcrusher currently doesn't apply to all attacks like what you wrote, and also it can apply all 8 stacks in one attack, not just up to 4.

[signal gate]

Enjoy ur hill

[tepid perch]

Yeah yeah

You sound like you definitely need sleep

[sinful summit]

there are many other cases of fatshark descriptions being entirely misleading, or outright wrong

thy wrath be swift on the zealot tree says immunity from melee stuns, but it also applies to ranged stuns and knockbacks

[tepid perch]

Yeah no i don't doubt that, but this person just created a significantly different blessing and called it a smoother rewording, which suggests they don't actually understand the blessing's real function.

but i digress

I'm on the hill known as being logical it seems 🤷‍♂️

[sinful summit]

either way, that is in fact how the blessing works

[tepid perch]

This?

[signal gate]

Attacks that stagger*

There u go

[signal gate]

Im also fucking tired ya weirdo

[sinful summit]

yes

[signal gate]

U are going on fuckin stands against fatshark and im trying to turn poor swedish to english translation into something that can’t be misunderstood

[tepid perch]

Refer to this to see why doesn't accurately fit the blessing

[sinful summit]

or even more specifically, staggers apply it

this includes pushing

[signal gate]

Firstly idk and idc about 8 stacks in an attack that’s a bug or peak fartshart, so my addendum * covers the whole stagger/push thing

[tepid perch]

There is nothing weird about me just pointing out something is wrong. Sure, make nme the villain for not being a yes-man 😂

[signal gate]

But no amount of posturing will change how it functions and how it can be properly understood

It is not a terrible blessing just cause it doesn’t function like how you thought it did

[tepid perch]

You keep referring to how it's properly understood but you've yet to provide a proper understanding despite numerous attempts... But hey don't let it keep you up i guess

It's not a big deal, i digress. Peace

[gritty dock]

Working towards a pefect mk3 eviscerator post update, opinions on which stat to dump? Mobility or shredder maybe?

[smoky ember]

mobility or cleave targets

[gritty dock]

I do want decent cleave, but I'm probably running a cleave blessing so maybe that's enough.

[smoky ember]

mk3 wants rampage, shred/savage sweep, flak, maniac/elites

[smoky ember]

the lights are damage capped at 4

and lights are what are going to be killing horde

[hollow meadow]

any way to fix blessings resetting after apply the points?

[gritty dock]

Push attack heavy, maybe into light heavy light heavy works well

So no, i'm not just light spamming

[smoky ember]

so light, no matter how much cleave you have, will always only damage 4 enemies.

also note, increasing cleave via a blessing like wrath or savage sweep does not increase your cleave damage, meaning you will hit more targets, but your damage distribution will not increase, meaning you’ll be dealing your minimum cleave damage to more targets (unless the weapon has a damage cap)

[smoky ember]

push attack, light, repeat is the best horde clear combo easily, as heavy has an absolutely awful cleave damage distribution

[smoky ember]

this combo also works perfectly with desperation, giving you a constant 20% extra damage

h1 should really only be used to stagger ragers, or revved to snipe out a rager in a horde

(or for revs against maulers and ogryns and bosses)

[raven pike]

so what do brunt armory do nowaday ?, i noticed i can buy the highest so far in the specific weapon shop is 33

330

[smoky ember]

look for weapons with good potential stat rolls from brunt

you won’t get a max level weapon from him, melk will sell those though

[fervent kraken]

yes i did do the tutorials, i will try to improve the fundamentals 🙏

[opaque steppe]

what are some good crossover weapons to focus on for non ogryn classes?

[vocal nacelle]

Duelling sword

[opaque steppe]

thanks, and for ranged?

[vocal nacelle]

There's bolt pistol, revolver, agri braced auto, bolter , columnus(the name got changed) infantry autogun

If you want to focus

[neat jacinth]

Exit out of the menu and back in

[potent jungle]

I'm still level 28 and I'm not sure if I should allocate those mastery points every mission.
I'm not crafting, can I ignore it for now?
It's annoying to put these points between every mission. I do not see any benefit immediately but I could be wrong...

[opaque steppe]

nah theres no immediate benefit, its just for crafting

[potent jungle]

ah thank you

[silk willow]

are different Marks gradually unlocked for crafting after getting some Masteries now?
for example, my Ogryn can only craft Ripper gun Mk2.

[silk willow]

and what defines amount of experience mastery gains per game?
Like, my Ogryn shield weapon is leveling VERY slowly compared to everything else

[vocal nacelle]

It's Per difficulties?

Unless they got hidden scoreboard or something

Normal damnation give around 24K

Auric damnation give 32K

[silk willow]

Pickaxe leveled faster, somehow.

doing new train mission to quickly finish weeklies, it gives less exp, but even then pickaxe leveled faster, somehow.

[vocal nacelle]

Might need some test

[silk willow]

or i might be actually wrong.

is it some mods interfering with interface or at what mastery level can I craft different Mark guns?

[vernal plaza]

You can swap marks in your inventory

[silk willow]

?! Completely missed it, thank you.
Thought its something cosmetics related so didnt even look.

[undone moth]

are there any breakpoints a martyrdom thammer helps to hit

[sinful summit]

i dont believe so anymore

you can hit the crusher one shot easily with IJ

[raven bridge]

When i sould use knife special attack?

[slender sleet]

what defences mean in the weapon stats?

[compact echo]

try hover your cursor over it on the weapon's detailed Inspect page.

Anyone have leftover points after every weapon perks are max?

[lost smelt]

Is knife the only melee weapon with bonus crit chance?

[compact echo]

use it to stun rangers attacking you.

[rigid wasp]

If you're talking about the blessings in the masteries, yeah

[slender sleet]

oh ok i try soon

[graceful halo]

Hello, I am back to the game after 6 months, I am a bit lost with all the changes. For example, why cant I unlock tier 2 blessing here ?

[zealous dome]

You have to unlock a couple of T1 blessings first

Then you'll unlock t2

[opaque steppe]

see the thing on the left, gotta fill that up to get to T2s

else youd be able to already get a lvl 4 blessing on a weapon youve only gotten to lvl 2

[graceful halo]

"a couple" = all tier 1, or just like 1 more ? Is there enough blessing point to unlock everything at the end, or choices have to be made ? Can we reverse back some blessing unlock ?

[opaque steppe]

4 more, as i said, circle on the left, when u max lvl a weapon you can get everything unlocked

[graceful halo]

ok, circle, got it thanks !

[opaque steppe]

you can still make choices, as u can unlock ur first T4s byy i think lvl 12 or 13

so some will still be low lvl while others can be high lvl if u focus invest

[graceful halo]

Thank you !

[cedar dune]

This is a melee blessing, what does it mean by "ranged stagger" ?

[signal gate]

Carry over from the ranged version of the blessing and they never differentiated

Idk if it it works but it barely matters since it’s a terrible option

[sand hemlock]

Is running bunch of difficulty 3 quickplay with 3x +20% chance of curio a good way to farm for curio or I shouldn't bother

[signal gate]

Good way to farm curio is that or melk 250 coin gacha

[sand hemlock]

Thanks yoiu

[oblique pelican]

What’s highest percentage you can get across all weapon stats? I know you can get 4, 80% and the last one is lower.

[smoky ember]

380 points, divided among the stats

at perfect distribution, you’ll have four 80s and one 60

if you see something like four 80s and a 61 or 59, that’s just a rounding error

[silk willow]

Is there a way to autoclaim everything?
I havent claimed any of them since this system got implemented... kinda tired of clicking.

[cedar dune]

Is there numbers/stats on what stims do?

[zealous dome]

From traitor's curse

Hmm

Celerity also replenishes stamina btw

[steep trail]

just had this popup at the end of current carnival maelstrom

[zealous dome]

Yeah experimental stuff

Disregard it

[cedar dune]

thank you!

[covert osprey]

hello, im new to the game and even when i collected a scripture for example it didint count for the special event so i wanted to now if i have to play a certain difficulty or gamemode?

[coral violet]

you need to play event nodes with 21st groaners condition

[deft estuary]

are mods safe to use yet? i get memory fatal errors with them enabled

[remote badger]

Was curious as to how many blessings there are for the infantry lasgun as I only see 9 blessings to pick from and there seems to be 12 blessings slots in the masteries tab

[crimson thistle]

I'm avoiding them until Darktide Mod framework and Mod loader are updated. Native game is unstable, with old mods on top = death.

[smoky ember]

i thought celery also increased movement speed

might be placebo though

[smoky ember]

i’m running 16 mods without issue

just don’t run any more unstable mods, like for the drip or weapon customization

until they get updated

i know someone who runs 40+ mods

and they’re doing mostly fine with the update

[frail scarab]

Does anyone remember the two new people in the mourningstar?

[smoky ember]

swagger and the commisar?

[agile wigeon]

What's the best way to get more weapons with decent base stats?

[silk spoke]

Do we know if the scoremod is already updated with the latest new patch cuss its missing a ton of information.

[smoky ember]

buy them from brunt

[limber pagoda]

Do daemonhosts despawn if they don't kill their target after a while? Just accidentally triggered one and kept dodging it, then it just went away??

[smoky ember]

they despawn after any player dies

[limber pagoda]

Oh, really? I thought that was only when the daemonhost's target died

[smoky ember]

no, it’s any player

[limber pagoda]

Ah

[oblique pelican]

thank you sir/mam, thats what i wanted to know.

[scarlet bay]

just loaded up my game since the update and after choosing my operative the screen is black. i still see my operative icon on the bottom left and player names but nothing else

[rigid wasp]

How do I get higher level weapons? I'm at 430 and 470 and I just hit level 30.

[late valley]

level up mastery for that weapon

[rigid wasp]

ah okay thanks

[hoary vessel]

I wasn’t recording so trust me when I say that it is a fact that groaners spawn a few feet behind you on occasion

I use a controller and accidentally kneed my desk causing my mouse to move and my camera did a lightning spin because the sensitivity is still max from me fucking with it and I caught the groaner materialize about 3 feet behind me going straight into a walking melee

This was after being out of coherency for less than 15 seconds I’d guess

[solar socket]

How do I roll for variants of weapons? Need Mk IV Cleaver but armoury only has Mk VI

[red ginkgo]

You can change the mark of the weapon from your inventory by selecting it and clicking on 'Marks' (top right)

[raven bridge]

Ok

[graceful halo]

Hello, is it "normal" that the loadout icons are not visible in the menu ?

[delicate estuary]

Do missions joined in progress not count towards Auric operative?

[atomic siren]

I got additional points despite already maxing the mastery somehow...

[delicate estuary]

Missing a blessing due to a bug

[karmic stag]

People, help me close the repentance. "A soldier in the crosshairs!" I don't understand what exactly needs to be done.

[vocal nacelle]

can you describe the penance

[karmic stag]

Kill the enemies (500) marked with the "In sight!" effect. I can't figure out what this effect is.

[vocal nacelle]

marked by executioner stance?

or focus target

[dapper shard]

Sounds like Focus Target (middle) keystone - you need to kill enemies highlighted with yellow outline, with that keystone equipped

[potent swallow]

Is there a way to upgrade Curios? How to get one with 17% Thoughness

[smoky ember]

rng, check melk and brunt for curios

[grim haven]

hello im trying to do the make every shot count penance, is there a recommended weapon for me to use?

[candid gyro]

db shottie using special fire/plasma using charged shots have low total shot counts against their ammo pool, also got decent cleave enough land a hit each shot

[grim haven]

ah so shotgun pellets obv fuck up the accuracy even if i hit with at least one pellet no?

[candid gyro]

so long as you score a hit with each trigger pull it counts, so a single pellet landing is functionally a hit

[grim haven]

ohhhh i see thank you so much for the tip

also first time i heard there was a db shotgun dunno when it got added but definitely after i last played darktide haha

[candid gyro]

it was earlier this year but couple months ago also easier to do the penance since teammates dont shot block you anymore

[grim haven]

i see thanks once again for the tips

[high shoal]

Is there a way for me to see my progress on the Infected Moebian 21st event? I want to see how many tomes I've collected so far.

[red ginkgo]

Hold tab and press E boss. It should be on the right

[nova summit]

so im a bit confused, how do i get the different versions of weapons in brunts armory

[coral violet]

you get the base and swap marks through inventory menu after unlocking them with mastery

[nova summit]

oooooh i didnt even see that, much appreciated

[high shoal]

Ah, I see now. Thank you very much.

[hardy cove]

Hey, how do I know what the fire mode / fire rate is of a weapon?

Based on the lore i know of warhammer (very little), we are more like the scrubs who are the expendable legions and they get given lasguns where as the "cool" space marines get botlers with real bullets.

So i wanted to lean into that more but I prefer full auto

[halcyon flower]

Heya people, I noticed that the event with the grimoires and scriptures not always count towards the event progression? Is there something I do wrong?

[quick remnant]

We also have access to human pattern Bolter

[halcyon flower]

i think the fire rate/mode is changed by taking another MK of your weapon (different movesets for example)

[halcyon flower]

if you click your weapon in the top right there should be a "tab" called Marks

(in your inventory)

oh sorry already got answered >_<

[zealous dome]

You have to collect on the infected 21st modifier

[halcyon flower]

thank you! prob was since i was just quick joining that it added sometimes so i got confused...

[hardy cove]

Would a space marine boss fight make sense in this game?

[quick remnant]

Power wise a SM could be either a Lord/Monster or high Elite.
But narrative wise they won't appear

FS doesn't want thrm

[smoky ember]

yeah, the darktide 4 could kill a marine with relative ease

[hardy cove]

oh really? my lore knowledge is from YT, and they make out that the expendable lasgun dudes, i think legion somethings have like no chance against them

and thats how in my head we power scale

[smoky ember]

imperial guard?

[hardy cove]

yea

[smoky ember]

marines are meant as shock troops, not front line combatants, so a marine in a front line battle, up against a line of 100+ las guns

will a majority of the time, lose

[hardy cove]

So basically where we are right? surely a space marine would be strong v a group of rag tags here

is the imperial guard the same side as marines?

[smoky ember]

plague ogryns, beasts of burgles, chaos spawns, and daemonhosts kill space marines all the time

[smoky ember]

yes

however many space marines have fallen to chaos

chaos marines are anti imperial

[hardy cove]

yea ive seen and play a little of others like battle sector and its implied they arent invincible, however Space Marine 2 is more an outlier?

[smoky ember]

space marine 2 follows 3 marines that don’t wear helmets, are named, and are main characters

they are basically invincible

however your standard marine wouldn’t stand a chance against the darktide 4

[hardy cove]

Luetin09 & Asartes Anonymous are the channels ive been wathcing to get some warhammer lore when im in bed

[smoky ember]

the weapons i’ll list here will be weapons that can easily slaughter a marine

powersword, plasmagun, thunder hammer, bolter, eviscerator, psyker and ogryn as a whole

[hardy cove]

Captain Torbjorn

[smoky ember]

i don’t watch either of them

so idk how good they are

but the issue with lore youtubers is they almost all tend to play into memes a bit

just to keep viewer engagement

[hardy cove]

can i send some examples

[smoky ember]

if you really want to get into lore, i’d start with some of the easier to get into books

[hardy cove]

like with the recent wave of hype ive been more interested

[smoky ember]

ciaphas cain was the first series of books i read

[hardy cove]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkJpFvJQp4M

2 hours talking about hive cities lol

[smoky ember]

lmfao

[hardy cove]

i think im more into the world building and less heroic sides, like the jobs of people around the world, the places etc

[smoky ember]

yeah that’s fair

world building is really cool

[hardy cove]

its also a good bed time listen lol

[smoky ember]

i think flesh and steel is a good book for that

i haven’t gotten around to reading it yet

[hardy cove]

So theres like a thing called the machine soul

[smoky ember]

but a friend of mine has told me about how it talks about some of the nitty gritty stuff about 40k

[hardy cove]

are the machines considered alive or is it like a werid cult thing

[smoky ember]

machine spirit

[smoky ember]

a bit of both

it depends on the writer and your interpretation

for example, knight suits, which are giant mech suits

(smaller than titans though)

their machine spirit is like an amalgamation of all of the users that had bonded to the suit before

there are other examples though, where a land raider lost its whole crew and proceeded to, unmanned, go on a rampage

[smoky ember]

appeasing the machine spirit also does have other benefits, in other circumstances, such as a weapon shooting better, hitting harder, more accurately

although this can also be attributed to the “appeasement” actually just being weapon maintenance, that’s just been turned into a sacred act

[stiff scaffold]

😦

[sand hemlock]

Does the empowerment system allow to reach the max of each stats bar or does it only give x amount of point ?

[lime idol]

Up to 380 from all 5 stats combined

There’s a bug rn that show 381~382

[fringe sand]

anyone else been disconnecting multiple times per game?

[sand hemlock]

And the max stats a weapon can have is 80/80/80/80/51 right

Like empowering a weapon to 500 would fill up all stat bar

[late valley]

80/80/80/80/60

Sometimes it can show 59 or 61 this is a rounding error

[sand hemlock]

And is it achieveable by using the empowering system to 500 ?

[patent jasper]

Four 80s and one 60 is achievable by empowering yes

[pastel mural]

what do I do to empower my weapon? I don't understand how to use this menu.

[coral violet]

does 21st count towards scab/dreg kills?

or are they just groaners

[sand hemlock]

reach mastery 19

you will unlock empowerement up to 500

[pastel mural]

I'm at mastery 16 which should let me empower my weapon to 400, but I just don't see any buttons to do it. I've clicked on everything.

at least I think it should let me

[sand hemlock]

press alt-enter

you resolution got bugged when u alt-tabbed

[pastel mural]

didn't work

it's at the usual resolution. at least it looks the same and settings say so

[sand hemlock]

the menu on the left should be higher in the screen

look

[pastel mural]

well shit theres my problem

I wonder if it doesn't work on 21:9?

[sand hemlock]

might be that

try windowed

1080p

me when it happen i alt-enter 2x to reset

im using dsr 2.25x res so it emulate 4k res and sometime shit bug

[pastel mural]

yea that fixed it, just gonna have to change my aspect ratio to 16:9 whenever I wanna use the empower menu

thanks

[orchid dirge]

I want to get back into the game after not playing over a year, but ive seen a lot of changes especially i think i saw that unlocks dont share to other characters anymore? Is it recommended or not recommended for me to delete my maxed level characters and just starting over?

[vocal nacelle]

what, just use your old character

zealot inventory weapon doesnt share to vet inventory but its very easy to craft identical one if you have the resources

if you have max xp lvl of the said weapon
and around 3K plasteel
you will take like 5 min to craft identical weapon

[viral narwhal]

What influences the curio item power when it drops? just curios or weapons as well?

[coral violet]

nothing

rng

[viral narwhal]

sadge

[raw moss]

whats the main use of melk+brunt shops now, just buying good stat weapons so you dont bother with potatos?

[little coyote]

pretty much, or with Melk a shortcut to a better blessing you've not yet unlocked

[sinful summit]

melk is pretty much a source of a "good enough" weapon to use for leveling its mastery
you could luck out and get a basically perfect one, but still

[bronze valve]

What does the curio perk Toughness Regeneration Speed affect exactly? Afaik it's only the coherency regen which works only outside of combat, right? Is it mostly useless in this case or does it work in other scenarios? I've played a bit with and without it and I haven't really noticed a difference in the toughness regained during combat but maybe I wasn't paying too close attention

[raw moss]

its REALLY good. it reduces the time BEFORE your toughness STARTS regenerating, so you get it back faster, then i think it also makes it regen quicker? might be wrong on second point tho

do a run with it on 2 curios if you can and just take some toughness dmg, then do it without

[bronze valve]

But it's only outside of combat when it works?

[raw moss]

it works in combat if you can stop getting hit for a second or two, i vaguely remember there being an issue with regen stopping if you get toughenss back from hitting/killing a dude.

if you dont like it you dont like it but it feels really smooth for me personally

[bronze valve]

Stop getting hit? Why would I be a bitch and dodge or block? Should I be scared of some infested?

[raw moss]

works for gunner heavy maps quite well

[bronze valve]

Those are the blight of my existence

Take a corner, get caught reloading, ded in 2 seconds

[raw moss]

yeppers

[little coyote]

Dodge slide is your friend

[lime idol]

Not particularly useful outside of maybe ogryn

[crude crane]

I feel like I'm going insane, have enemy backstab hits been doing more damage than they used to? Not to mention their 'chase' mechanic letting them hit us from way further away when running. I don't remember it being this extreme, was something changed?

[vocal nacelle]

nope

unless you are talking about rager

[crude crane]

Nope

[vocal nacelle]

also single enemies or multiple enemies

[crude crane]

It's probably a latency thing on my part then- And usually single

[vocal nacelle]

well yea single enemies hit harder

when you are swarmed by a group of horde, they deal less dmg

[crude crane]

I've had it happen in full hordes though, I turn around to shove a group and get downed in 2 taps by a single dude

Prolly a skill issue though

[lost smelt]

New train map is the best one due to the short lenght if I just want to farm items right?

[prisma wraith]

Isn't that supposed to be a V2 mechanic?
Edit: Just tested it and the damage reduction appears to be true and real in Darktide

[bronze valve]

If you always complete it then yes, but playing with randoms isn't a guarantee you won't time out and crash the train

[raven bridge]

This map is a bit hard

[prisma wraith]

It's very much a test of teamwork and objective play from everyone. Really difficult to carry a team due to the new fail condition

[raven bridge]

Which is weird when you can join this map by quick play

[rigid wasp]

Does anyone have advice for getting the 10 consecutive Auric Mission without dying? I play Ogryn and want to work towards that title.

[little coyote]

get a bunch of defensive perks from the talent tree and stack up on some toughness

[sinful summit]

get a premade team

[prisma wraith]

Would be weirder to have a map locked behind having a premade. And it's not like randos are completely incapable of teamwork, I cleared hardmode twins with a random team. Though I would like to be able to adjust my loadout before hot-dropping into a mission.

[silk willow]

where do I check event progression?
I.e. current "collect X scriptures/grims".
Doesnt seem to be any separate tab in penances.

[little coyote]

Hold Tab and cycle challenges with E

[silk willow]

ty!

[zealous dome]

Keep the ranged and specialists controlled and it's a breeze

No bullshited patrols

Get rid of that one sniper

You know the one

[crude crane]

What about his twin that appears on the opposite side sometimes

[torpid magnet]

empower menu not working for me, might anyone have a fix (its hidden off screen)

[zealous dome]

Hold E or whatever button to confirm empowerment

[torpid magnet]

found a fatshark forum post that suggested to just switch to windowed mode and then just resize the application window, that did the trick

[frail scarab]

What is the new max power level?

[hushed wave]

is First Target all that valuable on a Shovel?
Got one in the shop that's 80% across the board but only 59% First Target 🤔

[rigid wasp]

500

[rigid wasp]

It helps you kill shit faster

[hushed wave]

my current one is 76 / 80 / 80 / 73 / 72 so probably best to stick with it.

[jagged copper]

Need help with the On Overwatch penance

[modest swallow]

What did they do to my weapons I came on and all my gear was over 500 so now wtf is it in the 400 range

[hushed wave]

there was a big update recently 🙂

[late valley]

they redid the power system max power is now 500 your weapons haven't chanved dw

[sinful summit]

stats with a maximum of 380 base stats are now considered 500 power

[rigid wasp]

You sure they didn't just nerf everything and went for another vacation?

[sinful summit]

blessings and perks do not influence this number
previously the final weapon rating was, but now the only number is just the power from the base stats

[rigid wasp]

[sinful summit]

so yeah, the weapons didnt change at all

just what the displayed number means

[regal epoch]

hello

[frail summit]

if you had 100% rending, does anything like flak, maniac, carapace no longer apply? or are you doing +25% towards the armor type regardless of armor pen?

[coral violet]

you're just getting extra damage on top of it no longer being reduced

with diminishing returns

[smoky ember]

rending is converted to damage past a 1.0 armor damage modifier, at a rate of 4% rending to 1% damage

so (i’m fairly sure) that if you attack an unarmored enemy with 100% rending, you’ll deal 25% extra damage

[rigid wasp]

To my memory, rending doesn't apply to infested and unarmored

Not sure if that includes the 4-to-1 conversion

[sinful summit]

i dont believe the 4:1 applies to targets affected by rending
yeah i was right, it doesnt

here you can see the jump in damage with each stack of rending

but by the 5th stack, its already already beyond 100% rending

[smoky ember]

oh alright

good 2 know

[lime idol]

No, unarmored & infested aren’t affected by rending

[rigid wasp]

Even the 4-to-1?

[lime idol]

No

[rigid wasp]

woe

[inland zephyr]

Hello does anyone have any suggestions on how to do complete "its just a flesh wound" penance?

[red ginkgo]

Run real fast. Knife Zealot, No Extra Wounds, Shroudfield, Max Cooldown Reduction

[inland zephyr]

and any mission recommendations?

[red ginkgo]

Rolling Steel, Karnak Twins, Archivum Sycorax

[inland zephyr]

thanks<3

[undone moth]

mk7 perk blessings?
shovel for veteran

[lofty tulip]

in Vermintide there were mods like Onslaught to increase difficulty. Are there mods like that for Darktide?

[quick remnant]

Nope, and never will due to not being P2P

[undone moth]

any mk7 shovel players can tell me some perk recommends

[lofty tulip]

thank you. How do people do true solos etc? Is there a way to start without bots?

[dire barn]

https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kdarktide/mods/176

[coral violet]

why all these have different power

[wheat hawk]

I've been having this audio bug where the background track for the PA voices on the morningstar keeps playing inside missions, loading screens, etc. Sometimes multiple instances of this background noise plays on top of one another, leading to an awful cacophony that is only fixed when restarting the game

[zenith falcon]

hey, could you please help me figure out if these rolls are good? AFAIK it's max rolls on everything except mobility, which for a bolter shouldn't be all that important?

[signal gate]

It’s perfect

[zenith falcon]

Thank you, I am still very newish so I can't really tell

❤️

[random bramble]

Whaddya want on the laz pistol for boss DPS

[dapper shard]

Infernus and Dumdum blessings, and Unyielding perk (for regular monstrosities at least)

[sinful summit]

infernus can be substituted for raking fire if you want it basically exclusively for beast of nurgles lmao

otherwise for all monstrosities infernus is better

[random bramble]

Dumb question, but would that combo also for Zealot’s recon las D?

[smoky ember]

unless you’re running blazing piety, not really, it’d be better to have dumdum headhunter instead

or headhunter infernus

[icy crater]

Does the +10% xp on curios affect weapon xp?

[smoky ember]

no

[icy crater]

some bad bs right there

[silk willow]

Have 27/30 scriptures/grims collected.
Just finished a mission with 3/3 scriptures collected. Progress didn't update. What's up with that.

[dapper shard]

You need to play missions with the infested Moebian 21st horde modifier - these should also always have books

[silk willow]

oh, allright, ty.

[mild sky]

im sure the max cap said 60% mobility and rest 80% when i got the weapon grey from shop.

but sometime along the way it seems to have changed to this? visual bug?

[verbal wagon]

Hey guys I'm trying to test a bolt pistol in the testing arena and any time I equip the weapon it instantly crashes to desktop. If I equip it first and enter the game also insta crashes. Only happening with this weapon,... every heard of this?

[vocal nacelle]

Are you using mod?

[smoky ember]

update your crosshairs mod

[silk willow]

does mixing Lights/Heavies considered a chained hit? (for weapon blessings, like toughness on chained hit)

[quick sentinel]

what is a chained hit(shred)

[oblique plaza]

What's the difference between Damnation and Auric Damnation?

[vocal nacelle]

AI Director mood

[proud nymph]

Guessing moebians don't count for scab kills?

[zenith falcon]

hey, quick question, would you keep rolling or settle with this Recon Lasgun?

[outer spire]

I saw someone with a more decorated version of this but can't figure out how to get it.

It had a 3rd gold skull and more gold trim around the head. As far as I can see the Damnation reward was this one so I'm lost

[vocal nacelle]

there's a secret hard mode

[shell glen]

guys, the ironhelm shotgun isn't available for me and I don't know why, any ideas why?

I can't craft it, I can't find it anywhere, none of the shotguns have this as a mark. I have all characters level 30+ and I can't understand why I can't see this weapon

[late valley]

Because it got renamed to the crucis

[shell glen]

thanks, man! I was almost chewing my own elbows here hahahaha

[late valley]

It's confusing don't worry about it.

And if you were curious literally noone knows why they got renamed

[rigid wasp]

Consecutive attacks without missing

[mild summit]

Can you reset blessing unlocks? Or can you earn enough blessing points to unlock every blessing on a gun?

[quick remnant]

You can unlock all blessing with the maxed mastery

[mild summit]

So if you misclick and buy a blessing you just eat it and wait until you get more points to get what you wanted?

[quick remnant]

yes

[mild summit]

Ok

[nova viper]

I've never use a combat blade before and seeing many people using it I have no doubt it's a great weapon but what make them so great?

[rigid wasp]

Mobility, good finesse, fast attack speed, crit chance, uncanny strike

[nova viper]

Does it struggling at clearing horde?

[silent umbra]

not sure if this goes here but my game is only letting me use a lasgun? anytime I switch weapons then load into a game it gives me a lasgun instead of what I had equipped.

[worthy comet]

It pretty good at waveclear if you are a zealot

Thru sheer dps

[patent jasper]

is the toughness regen speed on curios just how long it takes for coherency regen to reactivate or?

[rigid wasp]

It's increasing the toughness regen from coherency

Doesn't affect gains from kills, talents and other non-coherency stuff

[patent jasper]

additive or multiplying with itself?

[rigid wasp]

That type of regen is a flat value, so it should be multiplicative

Which is also one of the reasons people kind of avoid it

The more toughness you get, the longer you end up taking to fill it through coherency regen, while many talents offer percentage regens, and melee kills in particular have a base of 5%

[gleaming marsh]

wut just happened

[agile wigeon]

Should I upgrade weapons to higher rarities and sacrifice them? or do i just bump them to green and sac then?

[patent jasper]

I believe it’s the # up to 500 that determines exp gain, not upgrade lvl

[sinful summit]

bump to green then sacrifice, as the weapons power itself is what has the most weight, by a LOT

[hasty jay]

iam new does it matter where i start and can i change my guy oor iam ii stuck witht him

[rigid wasp]

Your character's backstory is just fluff, and you can change their appearance and voice for a couple coins after creation

[vocal nacelle]

You can make a new class or you can change current class looks in the barbershop

[sinful summit]

for a price, you can also change their background, name, and voice/personality at the barber
but appearance is changable at no cost there too

[north ivy]

Guys,any chance i can get the necromunda skin again?

I am a return player.I missed it when those on sale

[vocal nacelle]

maybe on anniversary

[north ivy]

Did anniversary saled limited skin before?

[vocal nacelle]

kinda, krieg skin rerun and rogue trader rerun

enforcer skin is recent addition

[north ivy]

Ok,hope they sale it.thank you

[north ivy]

When will the anniversary start every year?

[vocal nacelle]

november 30

[wheat sundial]

Any tips for setting changes? Everytime I come back after an update the game runs horribly

[north ivy]

Ok,thank you

[scenic field]

Honestly, not really worth keeping. Probably just sacrifice or discard it and try to roll a better one.

[oblique plaza]

What does that mean? Is the director just meaner on Auric?

[vocal nacelle]

the difference between auric and normal is the director have lower threshold of "mercy" than the normal ones
in normal damnation after a wave you have few min to catch up with your teammate before the director send another wave of horde or specials (this depends on the modifier)
in auric the director will behave like "your health is low and no ammo? here's another all in one package deal + monster" with no brakes

[safe forum]

Is this the right channel for asking for penance help? I'm still needing to get malleus monstronum with my psyker but don't have a squad for a private match

does damnation or auric missions give better g ear? I jsut hit 30

[fossil lagoon]

Can someone explain to me why I lost my 60% potential Quell speed when upgrading from 280 -> 400?

It went from 60 max to 50 max

[cloud adder]

Do DoT Effects have any other effects on the target, besides the damage?

[silk willow]

did they remove Rolling Steel from being always present in mission selection? Why.
Have a classic" hve to leave in <30 minutes" situation, could've played Rolling Steel 2-3times before leave..

[zealous dome]

Depending on specific interactions they can apply brittleness, which makes the target take more damage from all sources

[zealous dome]

They took out the first week prio so now it rotates like the others

[cloud adder]

Ah, thanks!

[bitter depot]

is mastery character or account wide for shared weapons?

[late valley]

Account wide

[vivid pulsar]

Dear rejects, new-ish to the game and recently finished my first Heresy(4) dif. and I'm looking for some help.
I only noticed that i had 2 wounds when died without a knocked out state. I assume 2 grims brought me down to 1 wound so i could instantly die.
Anyone have a list of difficulty effects?

[coral cove]

hewwo everynon i got a pickaxe from the emperor after a mission but its missing

its not in my inventory

does anyone know where it is

[quick remnant]

Is your character still leveling up ?

[coral cove]

yee

is level 17

[quick remnant]

It might be that you've 'unlocked' the weapon type, and not have gotten one in the Emperor's gift

[coral cove]

ah i see 😦

thamk ye anyway

[gleaming marsh]

[lofty tulip]

If someone is in a mission and you invite them to join your strike team, does it auto decline the invite?

[supple helm]

What's the best dump stat on combat axes?

[smoky ember]

malice you have three wounds, heresy and damnation you have only two wounds, so you go down once and then die next

[smoky ember]

mobility

[supple helm]

I got one with 60 penetration, one with 60 mobility, and one with 60 finesse. I'm thinking about committing to the 60 mobility one since the inspect screen says it doesn't affect move speed and I should still get 5 dodges.

[smoky ember]

60 mobility then yes

[supple helm]

cool thanks

[somber surge]

How to res ?🤣

[supple helm]

Also for guns, is ammo a good dump stat or is it better to dump mobility instead?

[smoky ember]

mobility

you always want to dump mobility

[supple helm]

Also does the vendor ever sell max stat curios like +21 hp / +17 toughness / +3 stam?

[dire sierra]

I've got a +3 stamina from there yesterday, but haven't played much to get the others. So I imagine they are in there, just rare...

[proud nymph]

Anyone know if rampage affects crit damage

[rigid wasp]

All increases to base damage will increase crit damage by consequence
