@smoky ember Hey, here's that veteran build (never done this before so not sure if there's a more efficient way to do this)
With all due respect
What the fuck
What weapons are u using
Bolt pistol and power sword?
Look look I only just 5 minutes ago thought to actually do the thing your username says to do
Ok lemme make u a new one
And up until now I have not gotten any professional advice whatsoever about this build
I have just been doing whatever
I'm gonna read all that and make changes and stuff I promise
Try this instead
1 free point for talents u like
Aight, thanks
Probably one of 3 options
Marksman (left bottom, red node)
Field improvisation
Target down
Could go twinned blast if u enjoy gambling
Hang on, it says I have 2 points left over, I did something wrong
Oh wait I see it
Okay fixed it
Hmm
Field improvisation just seems like a nice thing to have
Or target down?
Target down actually, yeah
Aight that's all
Okie dokie, thank you!
I'm gonna read all that stuff you wrote now, hopefully that'll be useful

I hope u like reading cuz it’s 100 pages of condensed info lol
Oh boy, I love reading! Thanks a ton!
I’m working on transporting it over to steam guide
After steam guide is done I’ll prob retire the word document
That’s prob the least complicated part
I see
Question: why no suppression immunity in that build you shared?
I thought that was important
Because Boltpistol naturally has low sway after they buffed it
Go to Boltpistol page
Oh, that's neat! Didn't know that
Oh hey, the shredder autopistol gets suppression immunity, I didn't know that
Probably because I never use it
not sure if suppression immunity is relevant on a braced weapon
Whatever, I'm sure there are only like 4 people at most who use the autopistol anyways
with you, it will be 1
Do I count for negative people?
(i wish this thing had some point to existence)
Somehow my team awakened a daemonhost and I was running after it trying to kill it before it got one of us when I got jumped by a few ragers and died
I think that was the first time I've died to a non-daemonhost cause while there was an active daemonhost
Aaand that's two deaths in one mission now, the second time by getting trickshotted by a sniper while falling off a ledge
At least, I think it was a sniper
I was at 0 toughness so it could have been anything really
Yeah, the dodging more is helping though
But I'm still very very mid at this game
What difficulty are u mostly playing
Auric heresy
Currently on auric damnation
Aand I just died again
Really considering a wound curio or two just because of all this beast of nurgle corruption
wounds don’t help with corruption damage
health and corruption resist will
Fair enough
Okay I'm still dying an absurd amount
It might be the dodging thing
But the power sword's windup kinda requires not dodging for a little bit
If you’re dying too much, consider lowering difficulty and practicing minimizing damage taken
it requires dodging in that exact window in fact
Do you regain blessings if you dismantle the weapon they're on?
no, its different now
you get weapon xp instead
Yep, it turns out dodging while powering up my sword makes a huge difference actually
The finer points of dodging, I'm still having trouble with. Often I dodge out of one enemy's attack into another. But I'm doing better, I think.
Salvaging/dismantling doesn’t give weapon xp, that is sacrificing. Salvaging gives dockets and depending on rarity, plasteel and diamantine
Completion
It’s what difficulty you have done the mission on
ohhh okay
im playing with a newer friend and we were comparing them and were confused lol
how often there are Special Events, like the one ending now?
how long have those icons on the picture been in game?
since release?
yep since release
What is weapon xp exactly? I cant find a wiki page, maybe as its a newer mechanic.
I understand leveling weapon mastery itself as it unlocks blessings and better modifiers on said blessings
it's masteries
But I dont get what sacrifice weapon xp does
if you sacrifice weapons at hadron - you get mastery xp (towards the mastery of your choice, same weapon as mastery yields a lot more xp)
if you dismantle them in your inventory - you get materials
Just sacrifice
Dismantling is pretty intuitive
So basically you gotta level weapon masteries twice?
no?
no, it's just another way to get mastery xp
Once by playing with that weapon category and later by sacrificing
yeah its just another method to get mastery
Another method
Finally
Weird but I see now
Thanks

you get a lot more mastery xp from sacrificing weapons of the same family fyi
Good question
This is the fifth event iirc
First one was Hestia's Crusade
Second was Test your metal
Third was Rinda in the dark
Fourth was 21st horde
Fifth is the tentacle popping Bon spam
How do I go about getting a "best in slot" weapon?
like I have no idea where to start, is there even a point in upgrading a weapon that cant be near BIS, do I buy it? craft it? etc etc
how often weapons in store reset? every mission?
you can see the timer in the bottom left
of the shop
think its every hour
once a day for melks
gamble at brunt
ideal weapons will usually have 80 in all stats and 60 in a stat that doesn’t affect damage
like defenses, mobility
how to see ping in this game?
hello maybe som ojne can help me i have a psyker level 30 and i equiped a staff and now i cant un equipp it and olosow not delitet does som one now how to fix it
how to recycle weapons for materials, again?
press the 'discard items' button while in inventory, then choose which weapons to scrap
See this weapon info panel? The portion in the red circle is the only part that matters.
A weapon's power and rarity can be upgraded at Hadron. Its perks and blessings can be swapped out.
The only part that you can't modify is the weapon's stats.
Press the 'inspect' button in your weapon inventory to see more details about the weapon, and mouse over each stat to see what exactly they affect.
The meta is to prioritize stats that increase damage and dump anything that doesn't, like mobility or defense. But ultimately it should be up to your personal preferences.
Each stat can't get higher than 80% or lower than 60%. Each weapon's five stats add up to 380, so the 'optimal' meta pick is to look for a 60% in your dump stat (usually mobility or defense) while having 80% in the other more important stats.
is 380 from stats equal to 380 rank if weapon is gray?
mods
no it would be 500 power
what is a Collateral stat?
Thank you! I got it now
also - do blessings stack if I have same blessing on weapon and from mastery?
but it says on the weapon i got +5.5%, and on Mastery there is +5% dmg (Dum-Dum)
On weapons like Recon it's just stagger
On Ogryns Foe-Rend is stagger and suppression
Extra suppression that is
Every weapon can suppress just on different times or conditions
If I understand what you are saying then here is the answer:
the blessings unlocked on the mastery page are the ones you can manually put into weapons at hadron. At the moment +5% is the max you can apply. On the weapon it says 5.5% because it randomly rolled that way.
hope that clears it up
you can inspect weapons and read more info on each stat
it mihgt not answer all questions, but it is more information still
is there a weapon level after Transcended?
ok, nvm
i see max rarity reached now -.-
yes, sainted, not available yet
guys do you have a build or something for the sapper shovel munitorum mk1?
anyone wanna help me with 100%ing the twins penances?
why do people run around out there with like 7 wounds
Martyrdom (on zealot)
It’s a keystone that gives damage, and optionally attack speed and DR, for every wound missing
Up to like 50+% damage and DR and like 20% attack speed
If it’s not a zealot they are probably stupid
Doing penances and my brain cant figure this one out. Can someone please help me to figure out how to do... Blessed Weaponry?
What's the description?
Its the last tab to the right on the penance board, "Unlock a total of 20 unique blessing".
you unlock blessings by leveling weapons and unlocking new blessings by spending the points earned by that
just have to do that for enough weapons since they have different blessings sometimes
the Get's Hot blessing for the Plasma rifle for example is a blessing you can't get by leveling a shovel
feel free to @ me when you want to try, I've only done a regular playthrough of that mission and still need to get the secret, hard mode and the other achievements for it
Thx for ansver, will try to do another go on it 🙂
What build? The mk1 shovel goes great with pretty much everything. It's unironically one of the best weapons out there.
Personally I put uncanny strike and decimator on mine. Spam click enemy heads to shred through any and all armor, and use the special attack to stun lock ragers.
Yer, Mk1 shovel is sick
does toughness regen have an effect on any toughness regen source? i've read guides and watched videos and theres a bit of a dissagreement on what exactly it does
Toughness regen on curios effects the delay before regen kicks in, since your last damage taken, and how much you regenerate per second.
Coherency toughness regen then?
Its what I mostly gathered aswell
If it means some other toughness generation other than from coherency its usually a talent on the tree and it specifies when its generated, like from attacks.
Edit: And those other sources of toughness are not affected by curios.
That I can't confirm honestly.
"Toughness regeneration affects both the rate of coherency regeneration and more importantly it lowers the time required to start regenerating from coherency after taking damage."
This is the general info I'm finding online from some people who have tested the curios.
So in regards to perks on the talent tree, they would not gain the toughness regen boost from curios. They're independent of one another.
just got 39/40 on the "shocking stuff" penance, how do you get this penance without annoying yourself out... feels like its best to play with bots so your teammates doesnt steal the kills that you need but sadly i dont have any friends to play darktide with so i need to pray for noone to join the match, so far noone plays in the south africa server but the lag is becoming tedious the more run i do for the penance
@severe socket hey. I tried it yesterday with a full squad and man it's really hard. I have no problem trying ti again but I think the fact is that we would need someone to help us through it
i can help you with it rq
itll take like 5 minutes
Whyyyy does my game freeze like this regularly in every damn match???
is sprinting without stamina faster than walking?
what about if carrying stuff?
also, does the ogryn class get benefits to this?
The ogryn fast naturaly moves faster when carrying stuff cuz he a big boy
You move slower when carrying the cells as any other classes
Compared to other classes
And sprinting without stamina is faster than walking, but gl outrunning anything if u dont have stamina youre better off standing yoru ground
zealot>veteran>psyker
so ogryn has the hidden mechanic of moving faster when carrying?
psyker can slide and recover bits of stamina to always re-slide at full sprint speed while carrying
I did not know that ^
that's some sea of thieves-level stuff
is there anyone whos completed this and can help me? It's pretty tough
sorry, but you never answered if the ogryn class actually does carry things faster by game mechanics :x
thanks you ❤️
sorry for not getting it at the first time! ❤️
wasn't sure if you were jokingly giving an answer or just joking 😅

Still at it? Completed it a few times and always happy to help.
I actualy got someone to help me
They solo’d it. Very balanced 
stealth zealots i assume, yeah i can do that too but for me personaly it doesnt feel right if someone else carries you 100%
Yeah.
I’m not gonna lie. I wouldn’t mind rinniniy normally
To earn the title u feel me
Not be a stinky p0ser
lol
well i just finished helping some randos with it so im free if you want to join me
I’ll join in like 20. I gotta go do something else for a bit
I’ll message u if you’re still free
aight, Big E protects
Yo I’m back if you’re still down to help
Is there a reason to leave charges in the Medicae station before proceeding?
yea, u might need to use them later (potentially last man standing clutches) unless ur going through a point of no return
I said proceeding. It means going forward. So point of no return
then it's up to u if u want to fully deplete it
why do you ask then? 
if it's a point of no return - you can't return to the medicae -> no reason to leave the charges
if you mean players just not taking medicae, it’s usually because they either forgot it’s there, don’t care enough to take it, or don’t need it
something in your hardware is hitching somewhere
... should I just discard these like 0 power unranked weapons, I can't seem to consecrate them or anything
is there anything you can do with them, like are there any weird secrets to do with your starter gear
also does +xp on relics help raise mastery level faster or...
unfortunate
well, actually that is probably for the best
I don't want to run +XP on my relics
... does sire melk even sell perfect weapons, what is it I should be shopping for at him
How do i get more wounds? i just returned after the crafting update and i thought they use to be able to be put on curios but i can't find any, and every time i go to the 2nd highest diff i only have 2
You typically don’t want more, but if you need them for martyrdom or something it’s a curio base stat like Toughness and HP
wow, I wish I could trade you, because I feel like 70% of the curios I get offered are +1 wounds
gimme toughness damn it
Why are you sure this isnt server related?
hi, does anyone knows how to fix rectangular letters?
I'm guessing it's chinese letters, but darktide doesn't have that language pack?
you can use mods
ayyyy thanks for the link too!

very rarely, but it's possible
yo guys! what is the best way for ogryn penances with freebullets 4500 and 5k heavy smasher? What specific builds, guns, weapons will make me do them fasta?
use achlys, get the lucky bullet keystone(right side keystone), spam orthus offensive
use charmed reload blessing, get crit perk
For Heavy Hitter enemies dying to bleed doesn't count
Take a shield with Brutal Momentum it'll help
keep them as a memento of Your Very First Gun
Because a server issue wouldn’t freeze everything
My first guess is to look at your hardware performance while playing including temps
is there any way to like alter the aura or blitz in your build without literally refunding like your entire tree
using mod you can refund half tree
neat
what is "weakspot hits gain 20 cleave"?
where are you seeing that?
helbore las, blessing hot shot
oh, if you headshot an enemy
the shot gains more “cleave”, meaning it pierces more enemies
20 cleave would be able to pierce 20 groaners
aaaah right i remember from my axe
some enemies have higher hitmass though, like ragers
and carapace stops all cleave (except with sunder and perfect strike and the ogryn blessing)
i remember my fav combata axe had smth similar
brutal momentum
brutal momentum, more weakspot dmg and ignores all hitmass on weakspot hit
so infinite cleave
my highest kill per swing is 6 and all were beheaded hnrgh i love this game xD
heavy sword can get like 9-10 per swing
darn, i really shouldnt have used a handful of weapons the entire time
way more fun to switch every few games
also uuuh what is "gives 10% rending to all weapons"?
rending is armor pierce
aaah
applies to all armor types except unarmored and infested
Apparently the tooltip is wrong and it's 20% cleave
Applies to your melee as well
ah nice
also "50% aura radius" is my coherency for for example "allies in coherency" right?
i actually havent played any other class than the rambling lunatic that i have to skillpoints used anymore xD
yes
oh any other things aura radius is for?
like any of the debuffs go under aura radius?
it's just your coherency aura
but it's Fatshark, so you can never be 100% certain
everything is a lie, noone is to be trusted
man coming back to veteran, so much buffing, debuffing and healing
randome crits are fair and balanced
what does finessse do?
oh and is toughness regeneration speed only for the passive u get from allies around you or also for other sources?
Finesse is Weakspot, Critical and Critical Weakspot damage
ah ok
only coherency
it reduces the delay before the regen too
damn
i dont remember but aslong as i dont get hit i can regen toughness from that even in combat right?
probably heavily depends on the class, I've heard opinions that it's only really good on ogryns
and even then not all ogryn builds
no
if someone is "locked" in melee with you - regen stops
even if they don't hit you
ah ok
are there any weapons that aply soulblaze? maybe the warpswords ability?
infernus staff is the only weapon that does by default
blazing spirit blessings apply soulblaze on crit
but it’s only really useful on the voidblast staff
oki
Are taxes still bad? (On zealot last I played was at least a yearish ago.)
they’re pretty good
alright, thanks!
run them with either headtaker, brutal momentum, or shred
and flak maniac
they’re only really good on zealot due to the crit chance you can reach
maybe they’re decent on psyker? due to disrupt destiny and scriers gaze? but i really don’t know
got it, thanks!
Nah, psyker doesn’t have enough melee damage for them
exploits disagrees
exploit plays boltgun with 3 sprint cancels per reload I don't think he's the avg to compare to
and tac axe is just in a weird spot
u don't get high carapace or unyielding dmg (both of which psyker usually wants for melee)
mods broken or something? im getting backend errors
weapon customization is usually the cause
zealot wants both of those in melee too
its build dependant
say if you're taking a revolver, bolt pistol, electro staff
then the taxe can work plenty well as a general anti elite with decent horde clear
what is the fastest way to level?
quickplay + xp on curios
hey so i have a question about a performance mod if its banneable or not. basically it gives u more options like very low textures, disable volumetric fog etc
no that wont get you banned
unless its giving you a significant advantage, you wont get banned
If it is still on nexus, it is perfectly fine
How the hell am I meant to kill anything with the catachan sword this thing feels like a pool noodle damage wise
you suck vs flak by default
if you are a zealot you can parry+charge to one shot crushers but otherwise, dclaw is mainly only good into maniac and unarmored
and infested but that's less important
Wow the combat shotgun feels like a BB gun
Even at point blank range this damage is underwhelming af
Try aiming down sights and targeting the weakspot 
also if youre leveling then that only makes every weapon feel even worse tbh
anyone wanna help me get the just a flesh wound penance
What are the optimal perks/blessing for the dueling sword?
My personal favorite is shred and uncanny, plus crit chance and crit damage. Dead easy to activate and chews through armor as long as you simply left click on enemy heads.
But ultimately, the optimal perks/blessings are the ones you prefer. It's good to make informed decisions but don't let the meta do your thinking for you.
I've never tried the meta perks, I don't even know what they are, which is why I want to at least try them
I believe the meta is just pure damage. If a perk boosts damage somehow, it's good. Anything else is bad.
ah
Same reason why everyone says mobility and defense are weapon dump stats.
Hm, I'll give it a try I guess, but I do like my comfy mobility
crit/weakspot damage are actually worse than they seem
they exclusively increase the bonus of the crit/headshot, not the total damage of the hit
so realistically it is less than 10%, much less for most weapons
an example with a maxxed out roll of the duelling sword mk4, a heavy stab to a flak armored head does 886 damage, and a crit stab to the head does 1238 damage
the crit results in an increase of 352 damage, which is what recieves the 10% crit damage increase, boosting it up to 387, so now the total hit deals 1273 damage
that is a 2.8%ish increase, which still only takes effect if a crit even happens
in a perk slot that could be dedicated to a flat 25% damage against a common armor type, such as the very flak we're hitting in this example
id also say the 5% crit chance slot isnt worth it either cuz realistically thats also sacrificing another flat 25% armor type damage for 1 extra crit every 20 swings
Friend is having a weird connection issue. She is can join and play a whole mission but then she disconnects the second we get to extract (in the ship). Every time. This means she wastes 20+ mins on the mission for nothing, misses out of the XP and doesn't get any rewards.
- whats the error code your friend encounter
- can your friend just rejoin the mission if she just DC'ed?
- if you are playing with full squad (4 person) you can set it to private lobby so random wont join and take up the slot
No error. She just gets booted to character select.
Tried getting her to rejoin for the xp but she doesn't receive a reconnect option as the mission is over by the time she reaches the menu.
Will try some private games and see if that helps, thanks for suggestion.
Out of the 5 games she's played, 4 out of 5 she hasn't made it past getting on the ship.
On my end it looks like we all get in the ship, and the second it goes to black she leaves the strike team. So I am assuming it's something to do we what happens when the match is ending but I'm unsure.
Never happened to me before in over 300 hours.
Ill get her to give that a try. Thanks for the suggestion.
is it possible to get make every shot count and on overwatch in the same match?
those perks are bad
oh cole already said that
nvm
yeah
how hard would it be? because i've been having trouble with just doing one of them
Cry about it.
Cry more NPC
when someone gives feedback and u can’t handle that feedback moment
awwh is someone mad?
Nobody wants your feedback NPC
👍
you’ve gotta be like 12 lmfao
keep projecting child
please dont take this personally but the perks mentioned are not optimial
I don't give a fuck
crit damage is conditional, its 10% and its calculated wrong in the game its a lot less than it should be
you are obviously free to build what you want but they are far from the best
Bro is projecting
awesome selfie......

i have a void staff with crit chance crit damage for fun
cry more fat fuck
i think bro is just like 12 years old
but itss not the best
lmfao
blubber more fatass
Knife has a 20% base crit chance
Explain to me in detail why 5% more crit chance would be beneficial over 25% enemy damage
Base piety boosts that to 35%
theyre just going to insult you, send gif
and then believe they are correct
whats the point of this?
epitome of stupidity has arrived
taking everything so personally will just make you mad at everything around you
please reconsider the course of this convo
why you taking shis so personal?
the way they’re acting they will not be accepting any kind of advice from here lmfao
cry more bitch
i am not the one who resorted to insults
i am still willing to talk about the perks
crit sounds go brr
for example crit damage much like weak spot damage is calculated badly in game
its not 10% of crit damage
its 10% of the difference between crit damage and normal damage
meaning its a lot less than youd think
Crit damage also boosts the inherent crit damage itself and not the overall damage of the attack
hope this helps xoxo
I like the sound of crits and the crit damage perk looks nice on my weapon
cole already explained this
Crit damage kinda stinky…
they will not listen to advice
And I already said I don't give a fuck
repeating wont hurt
I like the look of the perks on my weapon
You started it fatty
pathetic?
Only you
i did nothing
Truly peak Darktide argument here
Keep telling yourself that NPC
this is just average discord user and 40k fan mixed together
Block effeciency is meta
hahnda mindset
So true
you are insulting like 5 people right now please reconsider
Clad noob
didnt expect this type of argument here
40k fan moment
no u
i came here to watch noobs argue with each other
i came here to see girls kissing
huh???
hook me up
god forbid a woman do anything……
I'll do it some more.
selfish..........
LMAO
LMFAO
🤞 us asf
if i was him i'd just pretend i was trolling atp
i’m on episode
5 i think
s2e5
of arcane rn
same i gotta look at the final act today
i’m gonna finish it today probably
Any tips for Long Bomb?
chasm logistratum, the map where you get ammo crates from the train, after you load all the ammo into the valkyrie
a horde spawns from where you came in
Practice a bit in the psykanium to get a feel for the grenade. Then just aim high and have fun.
Me too
I don't think you need anyone's help to get it
Just play and have fun. Keep aiming high and you'll get it
I know just best to have a good team when hunting down tasks like this.
I'm used to playing DCUO where you needed teams for feats
chasm logistratum the one where you have to move 5 ammo crates,
at the very end when you finish throw some grenades at the start where you drop thats how i got it
FUCK meow beat me to it
i already said that
😭
I'll do that.
I HATE YOU
What threat level?
heresy probably is best
Any you're comfortable with. it's just 3 enemies right?
i think i did it in heresy or high intensity malice
I'm only level 11 and I think I'm already fucking up my perks.
yeah prolly best not to rush it then
Don't sweat it
Or are you able to unlock them all for each gun?
Best thing to do is to just have fun. Chasing penances so early on will only have you psych yourself out
At level 11 penances will roll in naturally as you just play
I'm just wanting to not look like a hobo...
You do unlock a red, soldier-ish looking uniform for the veteran pretty early on with I believe a few hundred penance points.
You'll get those pretty much just by playing
I have it.
I unlocked it with the penances.
I just I don't know. I miss the Krieg gear. Didn't have a way to play when it was around.
There's also the cosmetic shop with more soldier-ish looking outfits for a couple dozen k's
The one I want is a few hundred thousand to a few million
Well, good thing you don't need penances to grind ordo dockets
Or the red for the emperor gear that looks like the soldiers on the ship.
Arlo Tohmassons Battledress
Bruh just play the game. You unlock that exact type of red soldier gear from playing 5 games.
5 sedition games net you a basic soldier shirt. 5 uprising gets you basic red soldier pants. 5 malice gets you a more armored soldier shirt. 5 heresy gets you a more armored soldier pants.
If you want a green Cadian look, using the voice of command to restore 7500 hp gets you a nice green shirt/armor, and killing 500 armored enemies with krak gets you matching green pants
Wow your pathetic
you're
Does anybody know if there is a mod that allows you to get different faces for different loadouts on the same character?

I've browsed through all recent nexusmods pages and there doesn't seem to be anything like that

Shooter's duty uniform looks pretty close to the arlo battledress and it only takes 5 malice missions to unlock. Arlo's needs 2k penance points which could take a while.
the challenge to get three missions without any player deaths doesnt apply to bots right?
cause i cant manage to get it with randos so im thinking of trying in solo
If the bots don't die, then yes it counts
I need one mission in Malice to get that torso. Anyone up to help?
Hey. Question. is there a way to get into the same Mourningstar instance with my striketeam ?
Managed to get the dead eyes duty uniform bottoms I wanted. Anyone up for helping me get through for the only red mask helmet I see?
i swear i saw something in patch notes within the last few months about a small xp boost to alts after maxing one, did that actually happen or am i losing my mind? google isn't turning it up
you might be confused with vermintide, which recently added that
THANK YOU, this has been driving me CRAZY lmao
"Malleus Monstronum"...
sup guys the loadout mod dont work for me
any idea
i put the mod in the mods folder but still cant create more loadout
do you have the 2 required mod/file?
mod loader and mod framework
did you remember to put it in your mod load order? is your game actually patched to load mods?
yes
yes too all my mods working but not this one
nvm it works now sorry guys i just restarded the game
For the twins hard mode, can I trigger it in any difficulty? Like beat it on difficulty 2 to get the bell skips unlocked for me
you can do the bell puzzle on any diff but hardmode is locked to damnation
So if I do the bell puzzle does that unlock the skip?
yep
Awesome ty
Seems like the smartest way to do it then, much more palatable to do hard mode attempts if we have the skip working
there will be 2 bell, skip only and hard mode
hard mode you skip and the boss will get steroids when you fight them
Time to go bully the twins on uprising difficulty I guess then 
Is suppression immunity important for veteran?
kinda help when you are doing some counterfire
it can help, but some guns like plasma and las pistol are already immune to suppression. E-stance also makes suppression less of a factor
guys does the % curio as end mission reward works? i have 3 of 20% and in five mission i havent got a single one, maybe i am just unlucky
it's multiplicative with your already giga low chance to get a curio most likely, not additive
Do you have to do the Karnak twins hard mode on damnation to get the Profile thingy? Not able to check atm but I dont remember it mentioning a difficulty
yes
The gold profile thingy
daemonhosts are sometimes extremely hard to detect when I'm running around doing stuff, usually you can like hear them from 30m away because their lines are really really loud right but sometimes I just get absolutely no feedback out of them until they are already startled...
is there anything I can do about this
ooh, interesting
can probably configure to just show what you need, only daemonhosts for example
thank you
Obeseamphibian knew what they were doing when they made this
Does anybody do the secret hard mode on Karnak twins anymore? Never got around to it when it was new
Recommendation for perks and blessings bolters on a vet? Does it need +maniac/carapace/etc?
just mag dump any braced autogun into horde lol
you can check the guide pinned in vet chat, it’s got the recommended blessings all written out for all vet weapons
Bleed on hit talents like vets bleed on melee or zealots bleed on crit: do those apply a bleed stack for each hit in a chain weapon rev?
no
however bloodletter applies on the latch attack of revved attacks
bloodletter still sucks but
it applies all of its bleed at once
This may sound dumb, but what's the difference between an elite and a specialist?
in the psykanium, all the specialists are together, the bombers, flamers, dogs, sniper, mutant, trapper,
in my mind, elites just do what normal chaff do but better
gunners are just beefier shooters, ragers/maulers/ogryns are just beefier melee chaff
whereas specials do something unique that causes chaos
That makes a lot more sense now
specialists is a bad perk
if you need to kill specialists, take maniac, majority of them are maniac
Work is melting my brain, so just to make sure I understand, talents only apply once per attack?
Follow up, sweeping hit from say a heavy sword or combat knife, bleed on all hit?
yes
and yes
if you hit 5 enemies with a crit on zealot, scourge will apply bleed to all 5
Ok, so how do the UNYIELDING classify as??
bosses, ogryns except crusher
Ok
and twins and captains not unyielding
Specialists, to my knowledge, are enemies that only do one thing. Bombers throw bombs, mutants throw you, netters net, etc.
Elites are normal guys but get non-generic assault rifles/clubs. Ragers, gunners, shotgunners, etc, all elites
also, bleed applies past damage cap (although not past target cap)
some weapons are damage capped, meaning they can only damage x amount of enemies, the evis for example can damage 4 enemies per light attack, but will still hit enemies past that, staggering them
however a scourge crit will deal bleed to all enemies it hits, even if it doesn’t deal damage
but target caps, like on the ogryn shield h1, do not have that
they hit i think 5 targets, and do nothing to any past that
no stagger, no bleed
So as long as it hits it applies bleed, regardless of if it deals damage, but it only applies once so you don't get double dips on chain weapons
Good to know thenk
I don't think I know that trick
on zealot with chain weapons, begin sawing an enemy (special attack), and while sawing, activate chastise/FOTF (charge)
it applies the rending and damage buff from FOTF to the whole of the sawing attack
allowing you to one shot crushers, and deal much more damage to bosses
it also gives you another attack with rending and crit
very poggers
i was not aware that it stops on the intial hit
yah the rending and damage gets consumed on the latch hit
Is the limited acquisitions the only way to get high 400 / 500 weapons?
oh, hrm. i bought a bunch from the brunts armory and was upgrading them just now and they weren't changing
i remember it working that way though which is why i did that 🤔
Wait it gives you a second one??
I always thought it only applied to the saw attack that you activate it half-way for in the first place
a
yah
because the crit is consumed upon hitting the enemy
but you are still in the process of hitting an enemy when you cast it, the final tick recieves the full damage, but you didnt actually hit the enemy since you cast
that hit had happened before
I never knew that part of the trick, that's actually pretty cool
which graphic setting affects flame bomber flame visuals? I have everything turned down to the lowest but that effect doesn't render in sometimes.
so I need to turn that one up to see it
Is there a techsupport chat at all?
you can ask here to try your luck or contact #🎒support-issues in the forum
Not really what im looking for. I've done a LOT of testing on my end (AMD GPU + CPU) and think I've found things that can help performance consistency. But there really isn't a place to funnel this feedback / report issues which is very frustrating
There is the perfrormance feedback on the forums but its basically dead
Not sure if you know but AMD CPUs and AMD GPUs have their own sets of issues wit darktide. Combine them and its a mega mess lol (me)
i know that, sometimes people complain about that
i’ve got both amd cpu and gpu
what issue are u having
Im having stuttering issues + frametime consistency issues
I think i've solved most of them at this point, but no way to report the fixes
do u have fsr on
er
sry
frame gen
Noooo
i can’t remember what amd’s frame gen is called
Frame gen is nice for the smoothness, but its not worth it for visual clarity
wdym
the blurriness?
turn off motion blur, turn the sharpness up significantly
For reference 7900xtx + 9800x3D
urs is better than mine and i have no issues
Motion blur and deption of field are OFF always. And sharpness doesn't help when textures dont load in propperly
that’s a draw distance problem
You can disable it in a config file and the game looks amazing, but it runs like shit lol
I didn't notice it until I was watching gameplay from other YTers
You can crank the render distance and all the settings but sometimes meshes just wont load, its an issue with darktide confirmed by the devs
Its a niche issue on the forums, its been reported but no updates
You can deffintely disable mesh streaming and WOW the difference in clarity is amazing. The game looks so beautiful
Are you on a 7000 series GPU from AMD?
Im sensitive to performance issues personally so
Darktide just does not like resizable bar
Or AMD Smart Access Memory if you want to call it that
if you have it enabled, darktides performance will be worse from my experience
LOLOLOL
even turning on the steam overlay will tank your fps
i’ve got a bunch of mods
I've done testing and im not effected
nice for you
but i really don’t have many performance issues
NVIDA enabled resizable bar per game (darktide is off by default) but amd its either on or off. And Darktide just CHUGS with it on
YOu may also just not notice them, some people aren't as senstive to that stuff
Im a performance snob so any framerates that aren't smooth or input lag issues urks me like not other
I've spent about 2 weeks testing various configs, drivers, chipset drivers, CPUs, GPUs, stress tested my PC etc.
I feel like i have a pretty good grasp on everything but there really isn't anywhere to provide feedback I dont think
All 10 of us AMD GPU darktide players are suffering 😦
Are you on AMD for the GPU?
Its hard to get a samplesize of data because everyone uses NVIDIA lol
Going from damnation to Auric Heresy, how big of a jump is it in difficulty?
Eh, prety basic i found
OK cool, good to hear
nah im nvidia
not bad
basically the same difficulty lol
auric heresy will have denser hordes
probably
ahh ok, thanks!
Is there a guide somewhere to FPS optimization? Game is unplayable as it is by default
there's no pump shotgun in this game is there
I did this and it was alone to get me like 90 fps
if you are using DXR or RTX it's probably going to destroy your frames
guys i dont know if this is a bug or what, i have a 400 rating curio with +3 stamina, on the meatgrinder i have +3 but in mission i have +2 is just bugged or is the internal value screwing me?
Closest are the combat shotguns
Not sure if they're pump or semi
That's just what happens sometimes. Psykanium doesn't calculate things the same as actual missions and Fatshark's rounding is just funky like that.
I believe you can only trust 410+ curios to be what they say they are.
i learned my lesson but what a bummer
Both
Semi action with a system that allows you to manually pump it to load the next shell
(So you can actually use the special loads)
any good method for farming then?
Mission rewards with the curio reward perk. And check the shop regularly.
will try thanks!
Is auric damnation the highest difficulty ?
maelstrom I-II-V-E-G generally considered the hardest difficulty+mutator
rolling steel is not ok with me
It's very meh
it does not quickmatch very well, a lot of people seem to get into it and then are like oh I have time to sit here killing horde right
and it's like no! no you do not
and at the end too the fact that there's a boss is like okay did anyone remember to, have some thing that can kill bosses really fast... oh, no? oh. uh oh.
oh and your reward?
like 1/3rd the reward of a normal mission
and you can fail through no fault of your own just cuz you took too long
That's just any quickmatch mission
no it's not because rolling steel has a hard time limit
Dipshits ignoring the objective to farm horde kills
And bringing dogshit builds
I don't honestly care what builds most people take since it can clear most missions but rolling steel is like, clearly wants you to be organized and prepared
should be in 'special operations' like that other thing with the twins
Don't forget the creatures who run straight past perfectly good medipacks even though they're currently carrying nothing
Or the absolute geniuses who drop medipacks in the same room as a medicae station
or right BEFORE a med station
Or right after a med station
like you have played this mission right
you're level 30?
yeah.
it's just like please save that for the end cuz we can make it work before that time but at the end I want meds and I want ammo
I think it needs better rewards but other than that I really like rolling steel
well guess what I play exclusively with randoms so I don't enjoy it
speaking of
why do people keep aggroing the daemonhost
there's literally no point to fighting them
i do it for fun
i can usually kill them easily enough
by all means if you are pro and you have the damage etc etc go for it but if you are some level 17 guy with nothing but hopes, dreams, a medkit that you are apparently going to drop on top of the daemonhost, and a horde approaching, then maybe don't attack the daemonhost
Leave them to die.
lol yeah
what difficulty are you on?
that was uhhh heresy
I then regretted queueing for heresy
I have had much better success with damnation tbh
Fr
I hate such people
yeah heresy teams tend to suck
if you aren’t comfortable carrying damnation, heresy will usually have teammates that are just awful
a common joke (less common with the release of auric) was that heresy was harder than damnation
because heresy players are a lot of damnation dropouts
Can an enemy suffer from multiple DoT effects at once?
So can they suffer from stacks of shock, bleed, fire & soul blaze at the same time?
ye
4/5 Auric Storm Survivor but the server has been bugging out on me today. Worried about getting a good mission & team. I have dc'ed so often I'm thinking finishing may be impossible - like the enemies run in place or float up to the roof and I get this graphic glitch and disconnect message.
Its pretty unplayable. Tried restarting system, checking drivers, reinstalling. Might take a break
got 5/5, but had the same dc's throughout the game 2014, 30xx errors. Did a reinstall before it, no luck
Can anyone help me with the 5 auric missions without dying? I don't die I just have bad teammates
does the xp perk on the curiors works on weapon's rank xp?
you mean mastery, and, no it does not
once you are max level kick that shit to the curb
Got back in game after 2 years. I see a lot of changes and trying to catch that. I don't remember skill tree, example. So, before I was playing veteran, like it, but now I would like to play **Zealot **and Psyker. Can you point me to some survivability builds for those two classes, please? Until I catch the feeling and be more confident in game without dying too much on higher difficulties? Thank you very much.
Both class middle ult tree is support skill
for veteran pick middle tree and pick up 'iron will' near the bottom and keep your toughness high and you become very hard to kill and you keep your team alive as well so that is cool
Anyone what this means?
Have you enabled mods after the update?
Yeah, I did
check modding discord announcements for a fix
Bless 🙏
I'm playing on ps5. How can I do a game by myself with bots?
@vocal nacelle and @shell shoal thank you. I'll check that
you need at least one another person to play a private game
Are they going to add solo support soon?
probably not their priority
They won't be adding it at all
What? That's crazy. Vermintide had it
well we all know how much they learned from vt
And what's that?
Vermintide was also P2P and no dedicated servers
i guess i will only play this game when i got friends on, so 1 or 2 times a month maybe
i just can't play with randoms
what a bummer
guess i have to shelf the game
was really looking foward to it as well
playing with randoms works fine, give it a shot
would be willing to give it a try if there would be chance to start with solo
wanted to start casually and see where it goes from there
did prologue, had great fun but the when i tried to play an actual round i found out i would have to do a public match
no thanks
don't want to be forced in to that
did not ever cross my mind that you can't play a game like this solo
my fault for not making sure.
will now see if i can get friends to play but if not, delete and hope solo gets added at some point.
because the bot teammate is horrible in darktide
If you refund the game make sure you write in the feedback it's because no solo
Maybe they will actually listen for once
on PS
sony are bastard about refunds
my own damn fault for not making sure
don't care. would be fine to do it with bad bots or no bots at all
PS or PC?
if PC there's mod
he said he was on PS, so no mods. true solo doesnt have progression anyways
PS5
well cant help you
its not true solo
I wouldnt call mmt a proper solo mod
but it works
but what's the problem? even the worst players will be better than bots, and nobody talks in matches anyway, they might as well be bots
We should start a petition for adding bots/solo mode. I don't care if the bots don't play as good as a real player, I prefer playing solo at my own pace, it's how I beat vermintide.
guys do i need to verification test my files for corrupted every 3 weaks or can i skip it becus it takes so long to do it xd
I'm just not comfortable with randoms. I have tried it on other games but it just feels wrong for me.
I tried helldivers 2 with randoms and now i rather play it solo.
100% me issue
i recommend to do it for the first time so you dont crash
if you already done it then you can skip it
gameplay
U could try to play with people here in lfg channels? Everyone starts somewhere
Does anyone have any tips on the dodge a million gazillion reaper shots while sprinting penance? Bane of my existence rn
Stripped down (blessing) + duck & dive (talent) on veteran
what path said, or take swift certainty on zealot
both work
Is it better to hold block or block shove when getting swarmed?
Push is better
Block is unfortunately not very good in this game outside of 2 circumstances
- Ogryn (loads of stamina, high innate block efficiency)
- Psyker with Kinetic Deflection talent (block generates peril up to 97% instead of consuming stamina)
dont look at the reaper. You need to look away from him, 90 degrees and move in a perpendicular angle
always push + dodge. Blocking simply absorbs the hit and costs you stamina, pushing buys you time while they're staggered so that you can hit back and get out of the situation
they should change it, the fact it felt like it is pure gimmick giving curior do xp stats and doesn't help mastery skills to gain more xp. It just now why even bother with it, I guess I am going suggestion board for this.
yeah the reward is pathetic
the difficulty is noticeably higher than other missions
and it's timed
it should be special operations like the twins imo
are mods not working at the moment?
mod framework needs an update after the hotfix today, or so i am told
ok
Unfortunate
No darktide today
check the modding discord for a fix
Why can't i see the modding channel
Hey guys where's the talent that gets rid of rubberbanding and lag?
Rev or shotgun for MESC?
mesc?
Make every shot count
ohg
both work fine, although low ammo plasma gun works
works too*
why game keeps deleting all my skill trees? i constantly have to redo my skills
close the menu after putting them in
i do but i come back a hour / day/ month later and they are randomly gone again
how to fix my mods please, idk what im doin
Update your mod loader lol
crit chance applies to psyker staff charges, yes? like I could build into crit just for the ground explosion of voidblast to crit and hit that soulblaze?
ye
welp, time to test my next build idea
thenky
follow up: does the blessing that does double shots on crit also apply?
ah that's a good question, and no it unfortunately doesn't work on voidblast's secondary fire
it also doesn't work on the electrokinetic staff's secondary fire
it only works on the voidstrike staff's secondary fire
so the bowling ball gets doubled up, but nothing else that sounds delightfully stupid
yeah it's been bugged for a while and it doesn't seem like they'll fix it any time soon so oh well
oh i figured it was just one of those "because electricity and ground explosions aren't projectiles they aren't meant to be doubled" type things, not a bug
Can only some classes get the 17% toughness curio?
everyone can
hei uhm, I'm on my second ever game and I think I'm softlocked... or like, we all are
we are atop of an elevator and can't find any way out :c
is there a way to get unstuck or smth?
It might sound rude but is there a button?
any time the game updates and a change was made to the skill tree, even slightly, it has to do that
how many greens does it take to max out mastery from level 1
Any fast way to get some money? I want to change my name lol
missions with special conditions like Hi/Low-Intensity, hunting grounds etc
maelstroms are the biggest payouts
can any kind person help me with secret orthos puzzle?
about 20, plus-minus
good stats
noice
wait why'd I post this here oh well
that helps
disable rtx and enable dlss if you haven't yet
then I'd recon lowering screen space reflections would help a bunch if there's a setting for that
yeah you need to enable some form of upscaling otherwise darktide WILL NOT run well, idk why, but that's how it is
if you look at a statistics server while playing you will be able to determine if you are suffering a cpu or gpu bottleneck.
regardless of the type of bottleneck you can try to overclock your gpu or cpu. you can also try to use some of the mods that allow you to reduce graphics settings even more.
from my experience I assume most people will face a cpu bottleneck as the game is held back by the ability of 2 threads/ 1 core(?) whereas a gpu can just parallel process everything.
my 5900xt (a technically 4 year old cpu architecture) holds back my 4070 ti in the middle of most action due to this. nvidia frame generation helps a lot in this sort of case and means I barely ever go below 130 fps.
note: mods may be broken right now
anyone willing to sit in a private match with me? doing just a flesh wound on zealot
most mods are good if you update the mod loader
maybe not most, almost all of mine are working now though
noice, yeah I read people saying the mod loader was broken. the mods themselves are usually fairly resilient to updates
yesss
the darktide modding server is fantastic, I only found out through someone using For the Emperor that I needed to update the mod loader, and that it's on the modding server.
Fake
yeah I thought so
Link to a beginner's guide. Would love any additional tips you guys want to add.
Are people cheating or is that a display bug?
no it's literally like a rounding error
I think it's like it display 3.0 but it's only 2.9 or something so in-game it counts as +2.0 stamina, is my guess
but if you get to 410 then I assume when it says +3.0 it means +3.0 stamina, which means in-game it's +3 stamina
that's my assumption anyway
nope
after the patch game crashes if I try to run mods these are the ones I have and their load order is random. how do I run them without crashing? it ran on this order before
DML needs an update
Go grab it off nexus
Make sure to extract it in your base DT folder though
and if you say replace all it will overwrite your load order to a blank one btw
Hey guys, how much success would my girlfriend have running this game with an I7-3770 CPU and well over recommended GPU?
I know the CPU is quite weak, but if im not mistaken, the minimum required CPU is something abysmal for some reason anyway
And im looking to upgrade her machine so we can play together. Is the game really GPU heavy?
Please tag me if any members of the Admech have an answer, bless.
I'm looking to do a penance: Malleus Monstronum (Kill a monster with 90%+ brain burst damage)
The barrier is mostly just the private group aspect of it.
Is there a way to do this by yourself (+3 bots)? Does a strike team HAVE to have other players?
Im looking for help to kill the karnak twins for the penances. Can anyone help?
second numbers are the potential max stats a weapon has
blessings are under hte mastery tab on your character inventory
I think most people are held back by the cpu since it seems to only be able to 100% utilize 2 threads (for me, anyway). she can try and if it doesn't work well she can refund
Well, i mean, anything more precise
also there is a setting on how many you can use in the launcher, BTW.
yeah I know, it doesn't matter tho cuz when those 2 threads are maxed out the rest can't do much more
id get a 7600x3d. or a 9600x3d when it comes out...if that's what you mean
Dude, im not asking for upgrading advice, we are not kardashians, i am asking is the CPU good enough to run the game on low. The graphics card will be an 8GB AMD 6600
cant blame me for thinking you want to upgrade when you said "And im looking to upgrade her machine so we can play together. Is the game really GPU heavy?" and your only clarification is "anything more precise?"
I just want to know if anyone is techy enough to know if the minimum CPU requirements are outdated and will she be able to run it with her current CPU.
.
you just had to read the first line of my question.
It is about the CPU, not the GPU.

I'm gonna just assume she can run it but not over 50 fps
the minimum is a 6600 which is 3 generations newer than the 3770 so it'll probably be a huge struggle. might even run sub 30 fps at that rate
Gpu and cpu heavy
Where do i go if I wanna ask the developers themselves about something
