[vocal nacelle]

my usual plasma focus target build

can switch krak to frag depends on your mood

[smoky ember]

lazy

i just woke up from a 6 hour nap

when i responded to that

[smoky ember]

did you ever get it?

sorry, i ended up falling asleep when i got home

[shrewd plume]

So weird question, but what's the difference between these two aside from cosmetics, price and trust level needed?

Or are those the only differences?

[graceful raptor]

nothing

they are the same

[shrewd plume]

That's pretty funny that I got that combo then.

[frosty charm]

Is there any guide or resource I should read to learn how to get best curios? I slapped the 20% chance to drop at end of mission and check the store regularly but i only get 15% toughness. I am fresh lvl 30 with first couple mastery 20 weapons

[graceful raptor]

farming melk contracts and buying his random curios is a good way

tbh, his curios is the only thing worth buying from him

[frosty charm]

ok but is there anything that increases chance of getting high level one from Melk? My average power level of my current equiped curios or highest rating curio I have ? or its just random based on my trust level?

[graceful raptor]

buy them as lvl 30 character

im not sure tho but i think this is the way

[vocal nacelle]

RNG based on trust level

[frosty charm]

ok so I just need to wait, that is fine

thanks

[cold crater]

I struggle with patience during havoc, where moving slowly and methodically past gunners I give into bouts of tunnel vision that usually end up with me getting downed, does anyone have a clue on how I can get better with patience?

[broken raft]

What class are you playing?

Because maybe you need to play a different one

[cold crater]

Its more a behaviour issue not a class one, I'm comfy playing Psy/Zel/Vet but again I just struggle to stay patient

[dry dome]

Any advice on how to get Abhor the mutant?

[smoky ember]

thunder hammer

let the swing go before the charge ends

[dry dome]

Should it be in a particular power range or does it not really matter at that point

Btw I wish someone told me banishing a daemonhost was going to shave years off my life trying to complete

[smoky ember]

earlier in the charge than youd think

because it has to be during the charge

oh

wait

power range

sry i didnt see power

if ur trying to get it on lower difficulties, no

it doesnt matter

just use an empowered heavy

[dry dome]

I ask because up until this point I’ve almost exclusively used axes and the combat knife and I’m unfamiliar with heavy weapons

[smoky ember]

ah

[dry dome]

Yea I had gotten a pretty fire stat spread for an axe and pretty much pooled all my resources into that

[dry dome]

Oh yea one more thing am I able to do it using fury of the faithful or does it have to be chastise the wicked specifically

[smoky ember]

either

[shadow skiff]

It's doable with anything that can one poke on head. I did it with DS4 because it just looked funny poking them in the head charging in. It's honestly easier to charge at something about to hit your teammate to cheese it. Just let go before slamming in.

[broken raft]

I did it with the thunderhammer

As the emperor intended

[sonic timber]

So I’ve been reading about ports and fixed IP addresses for securing better access to servers on Xbox. Has anyone tried playing with this? Does it help or not? I’m hesitant to start switching advanced settings unless there’s truth to it.

[mental terrace]

what the fuck do I do now

do you even test your game at least once

[shadow skiff]

Not much unless you are a psyker, then overload and bleedout.

[smoky ember]

download the reconnect mod

[mental terrace]

works on havoc?

[smoky ember]

yeah

[versed ice]

best maps on heresy/damantion to encounter groups of chaosgryns like reapers?

[smoky ember]

just play auric, no map is really best or worst for that as far as i know

what do you need it for?

penance?

[versed ice]

Already figured out dark communion has its share. Kill penance...

[smoky ember]

ah

[versed ice]

Reapers are the biggest offender imo, so rare I have to go ahead of my team in hopes I can secure 1-6 kills, even as krak nade spearbolt veteran, least Crushers and Bulwarks bumrush you

[smoky ember]

if u want a ton of ogryns (bulwarks and crushers), you can find a ton of them in CIVI maelstroms

mostly melee scab only

[versed ice]

be nice if they were more common, done a few whenever I saw them up. Wasn't dissapointed in the amount of em

[smoky ember]

if u can get a group together, you can use MMT

a mod

and play them repeatedly

[versed ice]

what does MMT do? edit: found it

[smoky ember]

use maelstroom.net to find mission codes

[versed ice]

can this work for auric damnation missions like the ranged only 1?

[smoky ember]

yeah

check the flash missions only box

and it’ll display only maelstroms

you can’t sort by aurics vs non aurics, but a vast majority of damnation maelstroms will be auric

[hoary vessel]

hey so i cant play with other players anymore

game finally got to the broken down point on my end that matchmaking will be only bots even if i launch havoc with 3 others

[versed ice]

tried verifying files?

[hoary vessel]

tried nothing lol just did other stuff and it worked when i came back but ik when they go on their holidays the servers start counting down until its just broken

[versed ice]

how to go about inserting mission code or which file to access in order to do so? I see 3 in the foldier regarding the .lua and such

[vocal nacelle]

can you flame them?

i would magdump everything and disconnect if the other zealot can survive

[sour pulsar]

is it just me, or does a reaper do jack shit compared to gunners

just made a tierlist https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSzel8AQ8qE

[vocal nacelle]

you wont talk shit about reaper on havoc

[vernal plaza]

Plogryn on very dangerous?

[vocal nacelle]

wait nvm its for new player

[stoic locust]

I was going to dispute snipers but then also noticed new players

Snipers are only a problem if you need to stand still

[shadow skiff]

Or are horded so badly, you can't dodge. Massive lag with st melee basically leads to that if nobody is dealing with the hordes.

[cold crater]

Is there any point to bringing a flamer against pushardened skin hordes?

[shadow skiff]

Burn says what is pus hardened?

Same for bleed in a lesser degree.

[cold crater]

Gotcha

[broken raft]

Or the game decides you didnt dodge because reasons

[forest pivot]

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but my game crashes a lot when I smack the daemonic eyeballs of the corrupter pustules (the daemon mites that block your way and you have to sync up with the team to pop all 3 growths). Is there anyway to turn off the splatter effects in game (also applies to warp fire dot indicator and bleed dot indicator ig).

[smoky ember]

https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kdarktide/mods/236?tab=posts

maybe try this?

[forest pivot]

Thanks I’ll give it a try.

I have a pretty powerful machine as well but I do like mods like I wanna see because the effects do tend to annoy me.

[mellow zinc]

Hello folks.

I'll be doing my first auric missions today. Any tips?

How much worse are they than damnation?

[graceful raptor]

more enemies

more elites

and thats it

[zealous dome]

Don't stall

Bombers and flamers will be pushing you

[mellow zinc]

I try my best to move forward and stay with the group at all difficulties.

[signal gate]

Director will not feel pity on the player team

[dusty monolith]

how can I see my havoc level like it is in the second image?

[fierce sandal]

Friend got disconnected at the end of a havoc match last night. They finished before he could reconnect. Now he can't play any havoc due to a message: prevented from playing havoc until current mission ends.
Any ideas on a fix?

(Demoting didn't work)

[pulsar acorn]

how can i be nude like my big friend on the picture

[upbeat prawn]

hi quick question if my highest assignment rank this weak and current is 40 and if demote my self down lets say 35 will it by the end of the week go back up?

[shadow skiff]

Only if you have beaten a 40 beforehand.

[upbeat prawn]

yes i did

[shadow skiff]

Then yeah, you can do whatever and it'll be 40 next week.

[upbeat prawn]

ok thx

[sour pulsar]

darktide team should be returning to the game tomorrow i believe?

if so, lets be hopeful for some great content

[polar portal]

I just realized there's a "Special" even. Is there a menu to see it or is it only in tab menu?

[shadow skiff]

Only tab menu.

Is pretty dumb tbh but is what it is.

[vocal nacelle]

Illegal mod

[smoky ember]

yeah the FBI will break down ur door

and just straight up kill u

if they find u have that mod

[undone moat]

so I unlocked true survivor finally, yesteday night, got video and everyhing of the run with my friends. I log in today and apparently I didnt get it?

I assume I need to wait for next reset or I just got fatshark'd

[broken raft]

fatsharked

[silk spoke]

Does Brute Conscripts also spawn outside of Aurics?

so far i havent seen it, but i wanna do something simplistic not run aurics like im on crack. thats only for crack days xD

[vocal nacelle]

no

[silk spoke]

d'arvite

ugh gotta really run 10 aurics Q_Q

prolly more...

[coral violet]

yeah, not guaranteed to spawn tho

[shadow skiff]

More. Usually aurics pugs is a gamble especially when they forced normal players into it.

[shadow skiff]

Nope, there's always 1 auric heresy and 1 auric damnation on the board.

[coral violet]

yeah how is that related to those spawning on malice regular board?

[shadow skiff]

They usually suck though, too many, would you like to be blind and shot at by snipers, or blind and Daemonhost galore.

[shadow skiff]

Never. Only aurics.

The first time was a bug.

Read the event post, it states auric only. It might change in the future, but for now, only aurics.

[coral violet]

still playable for some time then

[silk spoke]

yeah so far failed 2...

I can pretty much solo run this shit with bots if i have too if it was just on malice standard

i have not seen a single one on standard the entire day

[shadow skiff]

This is why everyone is trying to yell at FS to make it at least normal heresy or damnation.

[coral violet]

then you still have 1.5hrs left to do exactly that

[silk spoke]

i have not they aint spawning

[shadow skiff]

If you modded for it, just say you did.

Cos it will only be there if you have MMT.

[coral violet]

well yeah

[silk spoke]

MMT?

[shadow skiff]

Many more tries.

[coral violet]

https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kdarktide/mods/175?tab=description

[silk spoke]

oooh a mod, i dont like mods that change the game to that extend feels cheety

[coral violet]

how the fuck does this change the game in any way 💀

[shadow skiff]

So guy is basically telling ppl he got it via an exploit.

But doesn't state it.

[silk spoke]

you pull misions that you are not sepose to pull

[shadow skiff]

Untill someone who knows about the mod calls him out on it.

[coral violet]

am i not supposed to have anything fun to play when i log in? some missions dont roll in the whole span of 24hrs

[silk spoke]

thats how the game works

[coral violet]

are you mentally impaired? the screenshot clearly says mmt on it

[vernal plaza]

That only exist on the first hour no?

[shadow skiff]

But anyway, they are meant to be Auric only. Best to find a good team if you don't feel like using that or grouping up to yell at FS to make it normal heresy and damnation as well.

[vocal nacelle]

doesnt that make it worse

[silk spoke]

i have only friends that are below level. 30 and barely play and are idiots...

[coral violet]

i didnt know that because i played them when it was initially out

[silk spoke]

like absolutely worse then pubs xD

so its pubs or nothin

[vocal nacelle]

most newbies are in normal heresy and damnation they cant handle mass crusher & bulwarks

[shadow skiff]

They can lower the amount of chaos oggys for those though.

Events are mostly for fun after all.

[vocal nacelle]

doesnt work that way i think

the amount stays the same even if you change the difficulty

[shadow skiff]

To be fair, if it's a multiplier, it wouldn't hit as hard for normal heresy/damnation.

[vocal nacelle]

like dogs and mutant linebackers

[silk spoke]

But yeah it shouldnt be only auric. im fine doing standard Damn/Heresy ill run through those. But Aurics are only for when im pumped full of adrenaline

[shadow skiff]

Yeah, but there usually is less spawns of them on lower diffs.

[silk spoke]

the worst part is because the event is only Auric it forces more idiots in to pubs Q_Q

[shadow skiff]

Is either you can solo carry or not atm.

[silk spoke]

i am decent but i can not solo carry aurics sadly.. I aint that good...

Ugh i was really looking forward grinding today.. ill guess ill go play something else

Ill cross my fingers and hope they change it

[shadow skiff]

If you have a forum account, you can try complaining there.

[silk spoke]

i do and i did xD

[shadow skiff]

Heh, with enough upset ppl, hopefully it'll be more open to all to actually enjoy.

[sour pulsar]

just ran an auric damnation high intensity shock troop with a devil's claw and revolver, didnt go down

super proud of myself, cuz i never usually play past heresy

[fierce sandal]

Devil's claw is a lot of when parrying! I slept on that weapon until leveling my last class because it was my first weapon and I didn't know the game at all then

[simple wind]

Are the event rewards automatically claimed

[broken raft]

Yup

[simple wind]

Thanks

[undone moat]

How to get mission IDs for mmt? The site I used to use doesn't work anymore

[smoky ember]

http://maelstroom.net/

still works for me

[glass fox]

possible to get a knife with 60 mobilty?

[smoky ember]

yes

but you’ll have to get it through empowering most likely

[mint sinew]

Hello! I was wondering if anyone has a link or an explanation on how bleed currently works or if it has been unchanged since launch? My Ogryn is a bleed/heavy attack build so I just want to make sure I actually understand it.

[smoky ember]

@mint sinew

bleed damage table

bleed doesn’t really have any unique properties

rending from blessings like uncanny strike, or from ogryn’s rending on elite kill, apply to all damage over time effects

increasing your damage through armor

[glass rock]

Guys, whats the fastest way way to level?

[tame moss]

Do we know how events work and high intensity works?

[zealous dome]

2 years old info
So idk how well it holds

[versed ice]

be nice if there were more ogryns than trash mobs outside of hordes/events imo

[sinful summit]

Hordes are no longer time based

They are progress based

Actually pretty much applies to everything besides specialists now

A good example is in one of reginalds havoc 40 videos where we're on vigil station and we get to where the martyrs skull is and I jokingly say "is anyone missing the skull on this map"
Someone actually was and we did it (cuz it was funny), only specialists spawned during that time, even in havoc 40

But the only reason we actually did it besides it being funny is because we already knew nothing significant was going to spawn cuz no progress was being made

[zealous dome]

I did warn it was 2 years old

[dry dome]

OMG I FINALLY GOT ABHOR THE MUTANT LESGOOOOOO

[smoky ember]

sad

i miss timed hordes

[sinful summit]

Yeah I'm just saying it is outdated

[jaunty junco]

hiya, what's the general agreement on Revolver marks?

Zarona or Agripanaa

[graceful raptor]

what the hell do you mean "general agreement"

i think everyone agrees that they exist

so what

[jaunty junco]

ain't there usually one mark from each weapon where players agree is the better one? or generalist pick?

[shadow skiff]

Both are viable, different purposes. One is for sniping things in a shot usually. The other is better at boss destruction via mag dump. Both aren't really usable on high havoc anyway so that isn't a factor.

Zarona is more used from what I know. But have seen Agripinnas basically chunk monstrosities well.

[tall heron]

Can you stagger bosses? If I have a blessing that increases my stagger on enemies by 60% on weakspot hit will it work on bosses?

[graceful raptor]

most likely no

only specific things can stagger bosses

vet shout, zealot relic, ogryn rush taunt and rock in the face

ogryn grenade

[shadow skiff]

Kraks.

[graceful raptor]

kraks, ye

vet frag grenade, but not all the time

[signal gate]

no

not with weapons besides rumbler and voidstrike staff with surge blessing

but both these are under the bosses anti chain CC feature that was added, so they can't stagger in a quick succession

[tall heron]

alright thanks

[cedar comet]

Smth simth wrong cus I can't start a havoc mission. It says I'm already in one that ended a day ago. But I can do havoc when I'm not a host.

[smoky ember]

zarona is better

both are fun

[graceful raptor]

i wish agripina was buffed

[smoky ember]

it was pretty easy to understand what they meant

[graceful raptor]

its poopoo right now

[graceful raptor]

isnt it even easier to just ask what revolver is better

[zealous dome]

Well Agri was buffed recently (got slightly more cleave)

[graceful raptor]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[zealous dome]

I know right

[graceful raptor]

buff cowboy pistolet fatshark

[zealous dome]

[graceful raptor]

i really want to use it

[versed ice]

best class for frenzied killer (3) penance?

[coral violet]

any? just gotta find a dense enough horde for yourself

[zealous dome]

Ogryn big frag

[versed ice]

map on damnation?

[graceful raptor]

high intencity maybe

auric

[smoky ember]

zealot flamer, heavy sword

best map is probably carnival

there are infinite chaff spawns in the first section

the best spot is the side room before the second demo charge

you can just sit there for a while and let the horde build

then just either flamer them or hsword them

[graceful raptor]

flame grenade

[signal gate]

i mean it's completely viable outside of havoc

[dry dome]

Hey is anyone experiencing major connection issues for like the past week?

[kindred inlet]

probably. I've seen lots of talk about people getting error codes.

[dry dome]

Error 2014 or something like that

[trim quarry]

if im getting lag spikes could it be caused by mods?

[graceful raptor]

is there a build randomizer?

[unreal falcon]

i was going to ask a zealot-related question but zealot chat is being zealot chat so here goes instead:

am i correct in thinking stealth thammer is potentially the highest single-hit damage in the game?

[frail cedar]

combat knife and dueling sword get similar numbers dps wise but yes

[unreal falcon]

i'm glad the creature spawner mod exists because if it didn't i would be sorely tempted to possibly fuck up someone else's run by trying to one-shot a daemonhost for the memes lmao

[frail cedar]

i feel like dhs used to be way more of a problem when they killed 2 people

[unreal falcon]

u right

[frail cedar]

nowadays its either ditch the one that got aggro or nuke it down

[unreal falcon]

i mean i always play like it's gonna kill someone else anyway

it feels cheap to use my meta knowledge that it'll peace out if someone dies while it's active

i'd say "make daemonhosts scary again" but unfortunately they'd probably get used to grief

[frail cedar]

to be fair

i did trigger a lot of dhs in the past just because someone pissed me off

dont judge me

[unreal falcon]

only the emprah can judge u sinner

(i would also do that if someone was being egregiously shitty. like it's the godzilla option but i do have that button)

[silk spoke]

Uhm question if i finished and cleared 3 aurics in a row

and i do other missions in between

would that kill the streak?

for the chieve

[vocal nacelle]

nope as long as its not auric

[unreal falcon]

i'm pretty sure you can even die on a non-auric mission and it won't break the streak, but not 100% sure

[shadow skiff]

If it's not auric anything, it's fine. Auric mael counts though, so a warning.

[unreal falcon]

conversely, for auric storm survivor you can die on a non-mael auric and it'll maintain the streak?

[shadow skiff]

From memory, yeah.

[silk spoke]

Thanks

Then i can just worryless play with friends

[shadow skiff]

Then you suffer the no downs 15. XD

[silk spoke]

dw i pretty sure i downed through multiple aurics

[shadow skiff]

Is more the joke of the, there's that no downs on malice or above in 15 consecutive games.

[silk spoke]

yeah dw i dont tend to dive in maelstorms in general

Oooh someone knows what the best way is to find dregs?

Dreg maps?

is there a trick for it

[shadow skiff]

Pray to RNG god.

Seriously.

Went into desert maps looking for dregs, got majority scabs. Found out there's no point in picking and just QP till done.

[silk spoke]

i did notice that aurics are mostly scbs

the harder the maps the more frequent i see scabs

[neon galleon]

if im on a higher havoc clearance but ive only done a low havoc this week, does it get reset to the lower one next week cause thats the only one ive played? or does it stay at the same level

[silk spoke]

nah as long as you play 1 havoc a week i beleive it doesnt drop

[kindred inlet]

lower. you get fucked over, basically

[neon galleon]

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck okay thanks

[kindred inlet]

if you did 40 previously, did 1 just for fun, you'll go all the way down to 1

(if it's your highest for the week)

[neon galleon]

thats actual bullshit but good to know

[kindred inlet]

you're actually better off not playing

[silk spoke]

oooh

mine havoc dropped tho from not playing havocs

[kindred inlet]

yeah if you don't play at all you lose 1 havoc. if you play a low level one you go all the way down to that level

[silk spoke]

aah yeah that sounds about right

that is stupid tho

[kindred inlet]

it technically makes no sense since, if you don't play at all, your highest havoc for the week is 0

[shadow skiff]

It should just give you a lvl 1 box but set you at 39.

[kindred inlet]

I'm sure they'll change this one day. it's a little bit too deranged, punishing people for playing with lower levels in a way that 10 weeks of inactivity wouldn't even do

[silk spoke]

yeash

[neon galleon]

yeah i just played with a buddy to try and get their level up

[twin hedge]

is there an overview of weapon dump stats?

[unreal falcon]

i remember seeing one in a comment on le reddit but that might have been just for a particular class

but the tl;dr is dump Mobility or Defenses if the weapon has either (and probs Defenses if it has both), or Warp Resistance if it's a psyker weapon since you wanna be perilmaxxing all the time

there are some corner cases but they are few

[versed ice]

alot of people keep playing high havoc with the intent to clear just once, because of the weekly loot rewards

[fierce sandal]

What's the main use of the heavy sword alt attack? Seems to stagger just as much as any heavy attack? Can't really figure out it's purpose lol

[signal gate]

stagger and anti armor

you can loop h1 + special in a way thats the best way to dps down a crusher

[fierce sandal]

Oh right on I'll give that a go

[smoky ember]

it’s enough to stagger ragers out of combos too

though i think it needs a weakspot hit

[fierce sandal]

Yeah no, I ran immediately into a line of 8 ragers and just walked through them. I forgot the h1 is one of those that doesnt loop when only using heavy attacks, so the special -> h1 - special saw immediate results lol

[versed ice]

there a mod to tell me how many enemies are current spawned?

[vocal nacelle]

there is for disablers/special

[versed ice]

darn, was hoping there was such a mod to make frenzy killer (3) easier to pull off on say smelter...

[forest token]

where do i find the brute conscript missions?

[versed ice]

auric

[smoky ember]

theres a mod that gives you a kill streak counter

which could help

[versed ice]

mod name?

[smoky ember]

no idea!

i’ll find it

[forest token]

do i need to be level 30?

[smoky ember]

one sec

[versed ice]

ive seen level 20-22's in auric but, be ready for a lot of enemies including disablers

[forest token]

what's auric?

it says i need to be level to do auric

30

[smoky ember]

https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kdarktide/mods/143

[versed ice]

unlike normal mode, auric consists of high intensity stuff among other modifiers, including brute thing. should be able to toggle normal/auric missions from the top left i think. whats your level?

[smoky ember]

they get dragged in by 30+ teammates

[versed ice]

thanks!

[smoky ember]

yah of course

[smoky ember]

level 30 only difficulties

it’s heresy or damnation but with significantly more enemy spawns

enemy damage and health stays the same

just spawns change

[vocal nacelle]

extra difficulty mode

[upbeat prawn]

quick question if i am at havoc rank 40, do i have to play a havoc 40 to keep the rank or can i play lets say a havoc 20. will i get demoted to 20 at the end of the week?

[late valley]

Yes you'll get demoted to 20 if you do a 20

[upbeat prawn]

ok thx

[late valley]

I'm like 50% sure that's implemented incorrectly

[upbeat prawn]

ah ok good to know

[sour pulsar]

does anyone know if vermintide has more weapons in total than darktide across all classes

[late valley]

Including marks or excluding them

[graceful raptor]

did you already count them all to know if it matters?

[late valley]

Well I believe darktide has 101 weapons if you include marks

49 if you exclude them

I believe

[graceful raptor]

thats a lot

[smoky ember]

as long as you do one havoc 40 per week, you can play whatever level you want

it sets you to whatever the highest you completed that week was

[sour pulsar]

101 weapons? doesnt feel like that much

[late valley]

Tbf the guns don't have as noticeable of a difference as melee weapons

The infantry auto guns are just shoots faster or slower

Same with the recons

[twin hedge]

any allaround operator you always want to have in team?

[smoky ember]

each class can do everything well

just different ways of doing it

[kindred inlet]

psyker maybe

[simple locust]

what does rending do?

[graceful raptor]

you deal more damage against flac, carapace and unyelding armour

by you i mean only you, not teammates

brittleness is a debuff in the enemy, everyone deals more damage against enemy with brittleness

[smoky ember]

armor penetration against flak, carapace, maniac, and unyielding

the specific way it works is more in depth but basically, a weapon has an innate ADM (armor damage modifier), that look like 0.76 or something, and each % of rending adds to that ADM, bringing it closer to 1

above an ADM of 1, rending gets converted into damage at a 4:1 ratio

so 4% rending = 1% damage when above an ADM of 1.0

[sonic timber]

Is it just me or does gameplay vids on pc look slower paced than on Xbox. Is it a motion blur thing or am I tripping?

[tall heron]

Im lvl 6, should I just be doing quickplay or manually picking missions?

[graceful raptor]

however you want

[smoky ember]

probably FOV

[undone moat]

is it a bug cuz I've unlocked "true survivor" 3 times and I still dont have the title and penance says I didnt complete it. Do I have to host my own lobby for it?

[late valley]

did you not die or did noone die?

[shadow skiff]

Is no downs by everyone in the party.

[vague marten]

I press space to enter the game

[unreal falcon]

[distant prism]

Using a vpn to connect to different server (most likely a region near you) should help

It worked for me

Try switching to different dns server

If vpn can't solve your issue

[eternal tulip]

Yo, Hav 40 I got a 38 looking for a team to do True Survivor

pls

[warm elk]

youd have better luck looking in #vox-lfg-lexicanum

oh wow that was 12 hours ago

[simple locust]

what does brittleness do?

[late valley]

Debuffs an enemy making them take more armour damage

[simple locust]

ty

[forest pivot]

It is rending, but as a debuff. Same principle with Skullcrusher, but skrusher is dmg. Uh I forget what the impact one is called but same thing there.

[graceful raptor]

bro he already got the answer

3 hrs ago

[forest pivot]

https://tenor.com/view/i-kneel-bejita-vegeta-dragon-ball-z-dbs-gif-9873872880292680534

I just wanted them to know it was the same thing cause they asked about rending earlier

[topaz dragon]

returning player (over a year now?) can someone TLDR me about the state of the game? is crafting finally fun now or is it still gray item gambling city

[late valley]

Good.
Crafting is good.
Kinda grey weapon gambling but you just look for one with a like [10/60] in a dump stat and upgrade it which isn't hard

you can get god rolls really easily

[topaz dragon]

any classes that are particularly behind or is banace good? last time i played psyker was kinda unplayable except for one build

[late valley]

ogryn struggles in the new endgame mode a little because big, slow and doesn't have easy access to gold toughness. everyone else is fine psyker got brand new skill tree

[topaz dragon]

and a weapon too that i see, relic blade thingie

i should probably look up what i need to look for im utterly clueless atm

maybe a youtube guide or something

[late valley]

psyker got a two handed force sword. Zealot got the relic blade and ogryn got the heavy stubber which is a one barrel precision weapon

vet didn't get anything. yet

[topaz dragon]

i see

how do i choose a good basetype?

[late valley]

what do you mean by basetype?

[topaz dragon]

gray weapon

[late valley]

oh you want it to have low of it's dump stat which is usually mobility since it has no effect on damage

there are some exceptions I'm sure someone in the class chats can answer for those

[topaz dragon]

so this one is bad

[late valley]

yes

and then you can change the weapon mark for free so no hunting specific weapon types anymore

just get a good base and you're golden

[topaz dragon]

by low do you mean 60%?

[late valley]

yeah

[topaz dragon]

like this one?

[late valley]

everything else 80 and dump stat 60 is a god roll

so now you go to hadron and hit empower

[topaz dragon]

weapon mark?

[late valley]

it lets you level up teh stats

relic blade is personal preference I like the 2 some people like the 10

[topaz dragon]

so i just randomly hit a god roll?

seriously?

[late valley]

yea

new crafting lol

[topaz dragon]

[smoky ember]

ogryn and zealot are the weaker of the classes

psyker is extremely busted

vet has always been too strong since they got keystones

[topaz dragon]

you tell me this now after i wasted my god roll on a zealot weapon?

[smoky ember]

i’m a zealot main

i think zealot is the most fun class

don’t worry about playing the strongest class

[topaz dragon]

nah im not

[smoky ember]

i still top damage in 99% of my games lmfao

[topaz dragon]

but i dont enjoy playing the weakest either (usually)

well anyway how do i not fuck up this weapon now?

[smoky ember]

zealot is relatively weak compared to psyker, but not to a point where you feel underpowered

[smoky ember]

you can’t !

you can swap blessings and perks as many times as u want

[graceful raptor]

"zealot is relatively weak"

somebody pls put 30 pox grenades inside him

[topaz dragon]

whats so busted about psyker?

[late valley]

zealot doesn't have a lot of build variety because their tree is boring

[smoky ember]

extremely high damage potential, coupled with infinite cleave staves and infinite ammo

[smoky ember]

play games using that weapon family

or sacrifice weapons to it at hadron

[topaz dragon]

ah i see

[late valley]

no more rolling for blessings

[smoky ember]

then you can unlock blessings via the mastery tab in ur inventory

[late valley]

also you can lock weapons now (only took 2 years) so favourite that good one

[topaz dragon]

lock?

[late valley]

favourite it

prevents disgarding

[topaz dragon]

oh

[graceful raptor]

so you dont melt it by accident

[topaz dragon]

well im assuming psyker getting a nerfbat next patch then if its so busted

[graceful raptor]

nobody knows

[late valley]

DS4 is still alive

[graceful raptor]

and who said he is busted

[fierce lynx]

Hello everyone, Im having some troubles launching the game. It will pull up with the start screen and Ill press start and the game crashes. I played it a lot yesterday and I had no troubles with getting it to launch. Im trying to play it today and it wont launch. I tried looking on FAQ, but its kind of confusing. Any help is much appreciated.

Like what the error says is "hey we don't see your graphics card"

[fierce lynx]

Never mind got it fixed.

[versed ice]

does vigil station oblivium post finale have infinite trash spawns?

[sinful summit]

zealot is definitely not weak

despite how busted some of the other classes are with certain abilities/talents/builds
zealot has the ability to just be able to do everything in any situation extremely well to the point other classes cant

[smoky ember]

i meant relatively

zealot has consistent sustain, and on the most OP builds can easily compete with psyker and vet

but psyker is on an entire other level with damage output, and vet is just so consistently strong with relatively minimal effort

i should’ve clarified i meant relatively

i don’t think zealot is weak, power level wise

i like where zealot is, just we need other good talents than the same build over and over

[undone moat]

anyone got a mission ID for hi-shock brute?

t5

[smoky ember]

http://maelstroom.net/

filter by difficulty

anything with abhuman will be brutes

though for specifically hishock brute, i don’t know what ID it’ll be

[undone moat]

#general-chat message

[vernal plaza]

Abhuman_03

Although mmt doesnt work for me yesterday

[forest token]

do curio stats stack?

[dapper shard]

Yes, but some of them stack multiplicatively, some additively

[broken raft]

Difference is vet folds like a paper noodle if not constantly killing while zealot just gains 15% toughness by dodging

[smoky ember]

vet can just press F for full toughness and 50 gold toughness, combined with 6s cdr on special kill

zealot has good sustain, i already said that

but vet isn’t extremely fragile

[late valley]

The humble iron will

[frosty charm]

Melk is selling me weapon with all stats on 80% except one on 61%... is that some super rare case? I thought its all 80 + one 60

[pseudo barn]

Hello everyone I’m new to the darktide server and I wanted to ask a couple of questions

As a new zealot which one is more preferred relic sword or heavy eviscerator

Also I had a discord question if I wanted help with the zealot penance “just a flesh wound” would I ask for help here or in the zealot section of the server? Forgot how discord works have not used it since being in destiny 2 servers. Thank you for any help given 👍

[smoky ember]

heavy eviscerator is fun but the relic blade outclasses it entirely

and for help with penances, you can either ask in here, #vox-lfg-nasa , or in the respective class chat

though i’d recommend you wait until you’re level 30, and more comfortable with the class, before going for any penances

[pseudo barn]

Yeah that’s what I was thinking going from veteran to zealot is rough I feel so weak but I know I’ll get better/stronger with time

[verbal lantern]

I have a question regarding the push attack: Is it referring to the single click while blocking to push enemies away, or is it referring to holding the click while blocking to also attack after pushing?

[graceful raptor]

holding

some weapons have 2 attacks after push block, so you have to click one more times after holding

like one of the power swords

[verbal lantern]

thanks

[pure spoke]

For the zealot with the maccabaian sword.
Is Riposte or precog better with uncanny strike?

[shadow skiff]

Riposte imo, precog just... poofs too fast.

[carmine hound]

Can someone explain the difficulties? What actually gets harder as you increase in difficulty, and when in the leveling/gearing process should you go up in difficulty?

[graceful raptor]

from malice (3/5) you start to see more types of enemies, like ogryns

and basically its just more damage/health/numbers

[rigid wasp]

whens the next store update? :p

[broken raft]

Uprising has ogryns now

[graceful raptor]

really? never seen them

[broken raft]

Did one yesterday for my last carnival mission for penance

And there were exactly 5 bulwarks and 3 crushers

[zealous dome]

30

Usually every two weeks

[shadow skiff]

They die to anything though. Which is funny as all heck.

[broken raft]

yup

then they got to watch grug take their brains out

and 2tap the boss

[cursive nacelle]

idk if this is the right place but i have been having trouble moving up to auric damnation, on every difficulty below it (auric heresy, regular damnations, regular maelstroms) i just feel kind of bored. i was wondering if there's some sort of advice on target priority or positioning or whatever.

[pure spoke]

Yeah rip just feels much smoother

Is there any guide on how to play psyker?
I have been playing exclusively as zealot since i started and the switch from a tank to squeshy feels so bad

[shadow skiff]

Just ask on psyker chat. Someone will help.

[rigid wasp]

darn

[smoky ember]

imo, i only ever take crit blessings if im taking a crit build, with blazing piety, otherwise, precog is just more consistent and reliable damage

although precog riposte is a good option too, on ds4 at least, due to innate high armor damage, especially on crits

[pure spoke]

I felt that rip was taking down ogres much faster tbh

Precog made clearing hordes easier but anything with armor was much harder to deal with

I already had my zealot built for crit with piety so i though it would be nice to exchange the extra crit for extra finesse dmg but it didn't really work out

[smoky ember]

how so?

[smoky ember]

just take both

uncanny isn’t needed on ds4

[small wolf]

Question, is corruption buildup a flat HP number or is it health%?

For like, the blight spreads, nurgle trails, etc.

[smoky ember]

flat values

[small wolf]

Oooo okok that gives me a build idea then, ty!

My +21% health curios will finally have a use after all this time

[keen oracle]

Sedition has them too now.

Seem to be set spawns in certain missions. I don't think they spawn randomly

[hushed chasm]

Squeak! (Hello fren! There are plenty of ways to play psyker and rat is sure you have already gotten advice from many people. But if you are interested in the voidblast staff, rat would highly recommend this guide)

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9df8cf62-74bb-407a-b6ab-b942ad63597d/the-best-psyker-build-rats-trauma-psyker

Squeak! (Even if you wont main the voidblast staff, the guide offers great info which can be used universally across all builds, and the video at the end is a great demonstration of what it looks like when it all comes together) ;D

Squeak (rat hopes it helps fren)

[smoky ember]

dumping blast radius is actually pretty bad, it significantly effects the radius that debuffs are applied, warp resistance is a much better dump

80 vs 53 blast radius, white circle is the area that soulblaze is applied

i’d have to test to be certain, but i’m fairly sure the radius for both rending shockwave and blazing spirit are the same, as they both function off of the “stagger” radius

[north wolf]

Oh, so if I understand this right, low level items now show which stats will be capped when you upgrade them? So if I push this inferno staff up, I will 80% everything except Warp res? Do I read this right?

[smoky ember]

yes

that’s a perfect stat roll too

[north wolf]

I'm just starting an inferno build so I don't know what's needed on inferno staff yet.

But yeah seems like this is the one. My second purchase, lol.

So now I consecrate and then I empower, right?

(don't wanna do it wrong, lmao. :D)

[smoky ember]

you want blaze away, warp nexus, with flak/maniac/unyielding

[smoky ember]

doesn’t matter

either way

[north wolf]

Can you re-roll both perks?

[graceful raptor]

you can replace any perk or blessing

[north wolf]

Alright, because I got unarmored and carapace.

[smoky ember]

yeah, you just have to have enough mastery on the weapon family to actually unlock the blessings

blessings and perks can be swapped at will

you gain mastery by using the weapon in game, or sacrificing other weapons to that family (weapons of the same family give you about 5x the mastery than weapons of different families)

[north wolf]

Sadly don't have mastery yet. I guess I'll get that by playing. Also don't even have tier 2 perks unlocked. Should I leave it on carapace and unarmored for now until I unlock higher perks?

[smoky ember]

you could swap them to flak or maniac or whatever, it’s up to you

but i’m assuming you’re going to be playing at lower difficulties?

at lower difficulties it doesn’t really matter too much

[north wolf]

I'm a returning player, so I don't quite know what difficult to hop in on.

I do plan on going higher as soon as I'm not getting full-carried, basically.

[smoky ember]

i’d start with heresy probably

malice or heresy

[north wolf]

Hm It would only be 10% for now then.

[smoky ember]

yeah that’s fine

the perks don’t really matter that much imo

because everything except carapace dies pretty fast

and carapace will barely take any damage in general

the perks i usually prefer are flak unyielding, with unyielding being the main one for flamer or flamer staff

[north wolf]

I used to play basically everything but flamer.

So flamer is fully new to me.

[smoky ember]

unyielding is usually what takes the longest to die solely because their larger healthpools

flak just helps against maulers and scab ragers

[north wolf]

I heard you can change your type of force sword? I have an Illisi, but the build video seems to call for a Deimos. Is there a big difference? I never could tell much, with the Force Swords.

[smoky ember]

yeah, all weapon families can now be switched between marks at will

in your inventory, in the upper right, there should be a “marks” button

[north wolf]

Found it! But gonna need to play a few rounds first, got zero mastery.

[smoky ember]

though you do need mastery for that too

yeah

[smoky ember]

also unfortunately XP curios do not apply to mastery experience

[north wolf]

Balls.

[smoky ember]

yeah

[north wolf]

But looks like the game got a lot more friendly with acquiring gear. Used to be a right pain to get items. I remember getting Illisi force sword I linked and being quite happy with it.

[smoky ember]

yeah old crafting was awful

the best part about the new system is that i had enough resources built up to just brute force the entire mastery system and never had to interact with it lmfao

[north wolf]

Alright got all my gear, none of my mastery. Which means I'm now gonna probably do a Malice mission to warm up, then if I feel comfortable hop into Heresy. And if I get a couple mastery points, back into damnation.

As soon as I figure out how to best arrange this mess.

Oh to get weapon mastery exp: Do you need to get kills with a weapon, or just bring it into a mission? And also: would it make sense to buy orange tier weapons in the shop when I see one to sacrifice them?

[smoky ember]

just bringing it im pretty sure

kills may effect it

i honestly couldn’t tell you

[smoky ember]

and if you’d like, yes

though it depends on how many melk bucks you have

i save my melk bucks for gambling for curios

[smoky ember]

it’ll be about 1-2k per weapon

so

up 2 you

[north wolf]

Alright, thanks.

Sorry for asking a billion questions. it's been a long time since I played and A LOT is different.

[grand oxide]

I haven't played the game for a long time. Can somebody tell me the requirement to unlock havoc?

[smoky ember]

it’s what the chat is for !

don’t worry about it

[smoky ember]

they have to speak to dukane, then complete a maelstrom mission, then speak to her again

alternatively, someone in your party either left an in progress havoc game, or needs to collect their havoc reward from dukane

[grand oxide]

I did that but it's still gray out

[smoky ember]

if havoc isn’t appearing, press E to clear your filters

or whatever key it says to clear filters in the bottom right

[grand oxide]

thank you ❤️

[north wolf]

I was so overwhelmed first mission back.

[lusty locust]

I keep losing about 1/3 of my frames during combat. It's pretty bad. It seems worse since I've tried to optimise my setttings via guides and such. have a decent cpu and 3070ti. Hit 90 quite easily, but it skips down to 60 odd quite a lot and just really kinda hitches and is giving me headaches trying to play. Any clues or can point me in the direction or somewhere?

[kindred inlet]

that's more or less just how the game works. at the very beginning of the game i get 300 fps, during big hordes i get 110 fps. these numbers are inflated because i use frame generation. i have a 5900xt. 2 threads are at max usage and that seems to be why the game cant perform any better. only solution is to get a newer cpu that has faster single thread performance.

hitching is...i dont know. i get it sometimes and just adapted to ignore it to a large extent. could be mods. could be shader caching. hard to know

[lusty locust]

huh, well that kinda sucks. maybe cause i've gotten more frames, the drop feels like a bigger difference or something, I dunno. I'ma play around with a few things and see. It seems to have gotten worse, which could be mods but I'm unsure which have done it.

[lament trellis]

What is the max +hp on a curio?

25%?

Because I've just noticed a +21 curio

And idk if I should invest into this

[graceful raptor]

21

17 toughness and 3 stamina

1 wound

[lament trellis]

Karakan (pin for me)

Thx mate

[sinful summit]

it is also worth noting a quirk for stamina curios, 400 rating +3 stamina curios arent actually real and round down to 2 in game, only 410+ are real ones

[versed ice]

does clearing maelstorm/auric maelstorm with pox modifier count towards hold your breath penance?

[smoky ember]

yes

[hushed chasm]

Squeak (Although that is true, rat has developed a playstyle where rat values warp resistance much more than blast radius. On top of that, rat is able to spam secondary attacks very fast which more than makes up for the blast radius dump stat)

[vocal nacelle]

Lowering some effects and rag doll might help

[simple locust]

Can any1 spare 5 melk bucks 😭

I need it for my family

[blazing depot]

Heya, I haven't played in a while. Can anyone tell me whether there are still blessing and perk locks? I'm having a tough time understanding the new progression system.

[vocal nacelle]

no more locks

each weapon family have level now
you can use the weapon to level it up to unlock more blessing tier

or dump 20K plasteel to level it up to max

[blazing depot]

Thanks!

Good news for some of my nearly perfect rolls

[vocal nacelle]

its even easier to get perfect roll now just need to buy the weapon with the correct potential stat

and upgrade the stats

[blazing depot]

I have an 8080806080 shovel I'be neen dying to complete

[shadow skiff]

You mean curio gambling?

[forest pivot]

Is this the right place to ask for Soulbound help? 🥺👉👈

[potent mulch]

So I know how to Cheer or ask for Ammo but how do I say things like "Yes". Ive seen people reply to my "FOR THE EMPEROR" with a "yes". Is there an option and if so where

[void forge]

Mods

[toxic carbon]

Anyone know what the max toughness blessing is I forgot I think it's 17?

[smoky ember]

For The Emperor mod

[storm glen]

Can somone explain what that new gamemode is?

Havoc or whatever its called

[smoky ember]

enemies get special modifiers (such as pus hardened, which makes some of them take significantly less ranged damage, or moebian 21st, which makes all horde enemies flak), enemies deal more damage, shooters all shoot faster,

you have less toughness and health

captains from assassination missions can spawn in game

enemies gain more health

all of these changes get worse as the havoc level increases

with havoc 40 being the hardest

[storm glen]

Do you have to do multiple missions in a row or is it the same as normal missions where you just do one and its done

?

[smoky ember]

multiple missions in a row

if you complete an auric maelstrom, you’ll start at havoc 16

each havoc mission you complete will increase your level by one

if you complete a havoc level higher than yours, by playing with someone else, your havoc will be set to whatever mission you just completed

[smoky ember]

though note, it will take until the weekly havoc reset for the clearance level to update to that new mission

(but only when playing other’s, not your own)

[storm glen]

Alright, thanks dude!

[lusty locust]

That's the thing, I followed optimastion guides and lowered a lot of things and seemingly made it worse.

[vocal nacelle]

AMD?

[lusty locust]

No 3070ti

I'm just going through a few things with shader cache and such to see if that helps. Otherwise I'll try and revert settings to try to go that way or something.

[lime idol]

Do u use frame generation or no

[lusty locust]

DLSS? yeah

[vocal nacelle]

how high is your worker thread?

[lusty locust]

I set it to 9 from 13. I tried 8 which helped but was maybe the issue.

[lime idol]

DLSS is not frame generation

[vocal nacelle]

also this is just fps drop? no rubber banding or stutters?

[lime idol]

Do u use the FSR3.1 frame generation in game?

[lusty locust]

no, I'm not amd

[lime idol]

U don’t have to be AMD to use it

On the one hand, this game natively has really bad frame stability

1% lows on avg is like 75% of your actual fps

[lusty locust]

DLSS and FSR are mutually exclusive aren't they? You can't use both.

[lime idol]

Meaning ~25% of ur frames are below the targeted frame rate

[lime idol]

FSR3.1 frame generation is not exclusive to FSR upscalint

[lusty locust]

it's similar to stutters, like my frames drop from 90 to like 60 and things get slow and weird

[lime idol]

It can be turned on with DLSS upscaling active

[lime idol]

That’s really just the game itself running badly

[lime idol]

I have similar problems

[lime idol]

Yes but u don’t have DLSS frame generation

DLSS and DLSS frame generation are not the same thing

DLSS is the image upscaling algorithm

DLSS frame generation is artificial frame interpolation

[lusty locust]

I've never tried it because afaik you use either FSR or DLSS. You can't use both. So I've only ever had DLSS on.

[lime idol]

U can have both DLSS upscaling and FSR3.1 frame generation

But frame gen requires stable frame pacing

Which I think is part of ur problem already

Maybe cap framerate to whatever ur game drops to?

If u drop down to 65 then cap at 65 then u could try FG to boost that

[hidden oxide]

Do I lose any breakpoints if I use all %76 combat blade?

I have both %76 and %60 mobility dagger cant decide which one to use

[brave breach]

any numeric ui expert know whats the second number?

[fickle ether]

I would use the lower mobility knife even if your looking to use it mainly for it's speed. To qoute a old post I saw regarding its stats was - "At 80% mobility, the knife gets about +0.9 sprint speed and +13% dodge distance. At 60%, it's +0.8 and +11%. Most melee weapons have a sprint speed of around +0.2. Basically a meaningless difference. Even a very low roll of 20% gets you +0.6 sprint and +7% dodge distance, while retaining max dodge count."

[fickle ether]

Highest Havoc rank

[brave breach]

ah

[broken raft]

Havoc level

[wooden geyser]

what we all thinking of this havoc tier list?

[broken raft]

Hard disagree tbh

Bulwarks should be higher up

[smoky ember]

ignoring crushers and maulers gets you killed

bombers, dogs, trappers are the absolute #1 target

[sonic osprey]

Q) New player here... How does the Blaze sword work? Does the Block actually block? and what are the 2 energy bars near the crosshair?

[zealous dome]

1 - the force swords have Blaze sword on their names, so it might be confusing if you refer to them by that
2- if you see 2 energy bars then you have the Force Greatsword
3- that's a meter that fills up on kills, charge it enough and it'll strengthen your special attack Slash
4- blocking works as long as you have stamina, by default your Force Sword can't block bullets

[sonic osprey]

What do the colors of the dmg mean in Meatginder? I see grey, yellow and orange... I thought yellow was a crit (buz it seems 2x of white) , but then I saw orange and got confused

[graceful raptor]

white is damage to non-weakspot parts, and colors are crit or weakspot hits

i dont remember which are which cause they changed it at some point

[lime idol]

White is any non-weakspot hit
Yellow is weakspot hit
Orange is crit or crit-weakspot hit

[storm glen]

How good are chain weapons in like super high level gameplay? The saw attacks feel like they get me hit more often then they dont and the payoff dosnt feel worth it most of the time. But then again it could just be because i suck balls

[wooden geyser]

apparently its due to gunners being more dangerous, but not a run ending as other enemies on havoc 40

like the only dangerous thing that truely ends you is the overead, which is kinda true?

[graceful raptor]

green chain axe is the best out of them all i think, eviscirator with chainswords suck imo

[pseudo barn]

Would anyone be willing to help me with the shocking stuff penance for zealot

I’m only level 18 if that matters

Ive been doing high intensity mission like the carnival but still no luck. I would not be able to talk but for this one it should not need that much communication I assume

[sonic osprey]

Q) Ok guys I dont understand how to read the Inspect page's Damage stats... my Force Staff has
"Primary Action:113"
"Damage [39/63]%
Primary Action Damage: 113.40 [90|150]"
Can someone please help me understand how the hell to read these 3 lines?

[vocal nacelle]

Primary action = Your left click deal 113 damage (kinda)

[stoic locust]

The damage on the stat card is typically inaccurate because of math, if you go to the attack breakdowns you can get real numbers

[vocal nacelle]

Damage 39/63, your current weapon stat is 39 but you can upgrade to 63

yea the important part is 39/63 stat

[lime idol]

The stat card value is 1.0 ADM

[stoic locust]

I know

But your adm's are almost never 1.0

[lime idol]

Depends

[storm glen]

Are those new havoc cosmetic unlocks per class or do i just have to do it once and it unlocks for all classes?

[vocal nacelle]

all class

[storm glen]

Thank god the emperor

Also am i trippin?! Since when does vet have access to these?

[stoic locust]

Since U&L

[wary horizon]

Yo guys what do you do in havoc 40 situation where you are in an open space full of gunners and bulwarks because ffs we always get wiped in that situation

[vocal nacelle]

go back?

[wary horizon]

door is

closed

behind us

[vocal nacelle]

bubble , shout , chorus

and scatter to the nearest cover

which area is this?

[wary horizon]

Glandestium Gloriana

[vocal nacelle]

after elevator?

[wary horizon]

yes

[vocal nacelle]

need bubble psyker and vet start shooting

[wary horizon]

90% someone dies and all went to sht

[vocal nacelle]

after elevator should be doable

the cursed one is battery event

[wary horizon]

vet was using plasma gun. but takes forever to kill a pox hardened skin gunner idk why

[vocal nacelle]

50% damage reduction

[lime idol]

Pus hardened skin makes enemies take drastically less ranged damage

[wary horizon]

so does a vet just ignore that buffed mob then shoot something else?

[lime idol]

Gunners aren’t the worst, they die in like 3~4 headshots

[lime idol]

No, ideally they still shoot them, it just means the gunners cost a lot more ammo to kill

[vocal nacelle]

or throw shredder nade

[wary horizon]

hmmm alright we'll see what we can do

[vocal nacelle]

i image there's 4 gunner in a group

technically you can use smoke

[wary horizon]

true i think smoke is also good in havoc

[vocal nacelle]

after playing with variety of vets, i think shredder is very good on havoc

from teammate perspective

[wary horizon]

i heard shredder op with the knife blessing that buffs bleed or something

[vocal nacelle]

huh?

[wary horizon]

yeah

[stoic locust]

Frags and Uncanny

Yes they interact quite well, but you have to keep uncanny going

The larger interaction is with Lethal Proximity

[vocal nacelle]

oh that

[stoic locust]

Which boosts frag range cause spaghetti

[silver epoch]

Hello i need help. Im trying to do the Perilous focus penance on the spyker but im on 37/40. how to do it proprely ?

any suggest ?

[vocal nacelle]

Which one is that again?

[silver epoch]

i need to kill 40 enemies in ounder the effects of a single scier's gaze activation

[vocal nacelle]

try assail + vraks infantry autogun + force greatsword

fully charge moonlight should do it

[sinful summit]

you would distinctly need to charge the slash without capping out on peril from scriers, so youd have to have it prepared prior to a horde

[vocal nacelle]

yea just build up the charge first
throw some assail to get peril around 50%
activate scrier
activate moonlight slash

[silver epoch]

will try

[vernal plaza]

Imo getting enough mob density is the issue
Like mk5 iag + fgs with peril reduction talent/blessing give yoh enough time to kill

[sinful summit]

why would you want your peril to be at 50%

with that scriers might end before the slash even hits all 40 targets cuz of how much peril it builds to cast it

[vocal nacelle]

unstable power and warp rider

wait technically there's easier way to do it

pick this

and just pop up scriers gaze

will get very long duration of scier just melee the horde

[vocal nacelle]

@silver epoch forgot there's easier way to do it

just get this talent and go melee the horde while scier is active

[vernal plaza]

This, battle med, the peril drop on ranged crit, even more with fgs peril blessing

[silver epoch]

i did it

thanks guys

[sonic osprey]

Q) New player here.
Is this still the best resource for understanding enemy and armor typeS?
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/enemies

[fickle ether]

Games Lantern is kinda your go to spot for alot of darktide stuff. Can also look at builds on there too so you can get a idea what perks/blessings people are running. Or you could copy a build but I highly recommend making your own once you get the basics down.

[shadow skiff]

Just don't trust the high reviews ones, they beg their youtube/twitch fanbase to mass rate them up. They can be worse than some unrated builds at times.

[sonic osprey]

Q) I found a Braced autogun and Heavy Laspistol with max rolls on all stats except Stability 30/60 - is it a good buy?

[vocal nacelle]

Just try every weapon if you are new

[shadow skiff]

BAG you kinda want to keep stability though unless you plan to pointblank shoot it. Heavy Las depends on mark. One mark has recoil so you rather dump mobility then.

[vernal plaza]

Pick both, see which one sparks joy

[sonic osprey]

For dueling sword, what is the difference between Mark2 and Mark 4? they both seem to have the exact same stats?

[little coyote]

move sets

[sonic osprey]

"BAG" you mean "BAD"? or "buy it and bag it"

[vernal plaza]

Braced AutoGun

[sonic osprey]

ah lol, ok

[zealous dome]

The difference is that the MK2 is better at dealing with hordes

But only if you learn the horde clear combo

While Mk4 is just brain off kill every big enemy

[storm glen]

Ive never really looked into curios. Whats the best way to farm/get them?

[smoky ember]

check the shop, otherwise gambling at melk

[storm glen]

Does curio rating actually mean anything anymore? Or is it just sort of a placeholder thing?

[smoky ember]

@sinful summit

i don’t remember but ik u know

[twilit pendant]

So im getting crushed by corruption in havocs even with beacon of purity

are the goop piles un curable? or something

[smoky ember]

you can’t cure corruption that goes past a wound

[twilit pendant]

a single wound though right?

[smoky ember]

so martyrdom builds especially get screwed by goop

[twilit pendant]

or once a wound gets corrupted you're screwed and beacon of purity doesnt matter

[smoky ember]

yes

[twilit pendant]

fuck alright

[smoky ember]

yeah so more wounds means ur hurt worse by goop

[twilit pendant]

ahhhhhhhhhhhh

[smoky ember]

goop can usually be easy to avoid

with good positioning

but sometimes you get cornered and screwed

[twilit pendant]

i usually trash clear to regain chorus

and in hordes its hard

so if i drop some wounds i might be able to wing it

[smoky ember]

it’ll help, but against goop hordes you need 2 play a bit further away

and kite them

most weapons have a slightly longer range than youd think

[vital garden]

Just for cosmetics but

How would I be able to put together an outfit that makes my veteran look like a commissar?

[keen flume]

The closest you can have as a commissar are these sets

[vital garden]

Can I have some names to the set?

[keen flume]

Theres a few recolour commissar caps and coats

[vital garden]

I already have the black commissar hat just need to know what to look out for

[keen flume]

Let me search for them

[vital garden]

Kk

[keen flume]

If you are on PC, theres a mod that you have access to all premium cosmetics and you can preview together to create a loadout set

So you can mix and match to your liking before you can purchase

[vital garden]

Final question when does the commodores vestures rotate?

[keen flume]

Every two weeks and we will getting a new rotation on next thursday

[vital garden]

Joyous

Thank you

[silk spoke]

Currious question, The on hit blessings, like headtaker or Thunderus.
When you have a Revving weapon like a Chain Axe that can Rev on heavy or basic attacks (depending on the mark) and have multiple ticks of damage.
Does each tick count as a hit? or not?

Primarily currious on Thunderus as its not discribed as ON hit but just each hit... idk if that is different
Cuss my assumption is no on the Headtaker

[fickle ether]

Only counts it as one hit i.e 1 rev attack only grants 1 stack of head hunter

[silk spoke]

yeah i presumed that on headtaker.
But Thunderus states its different thats why i was currious about that one specificly

[fickle ether]

Would say it's still the same idea but not too sure on that. Could test it using this mod - https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kdarktide/mods/137 I don't use it so i cant give a 100% correct answer maybe someone knows if it does or not.

[smoky ember]

i’m unsure, but i do know that uncanny strike stacks with each tick of damage on the obscurus and deimos swords

[silk spoke]

from what i can see, does the damage only increase with each hit

cuss otherwise 1 hit shoudl max stack it

as you get 4 stacks per hit, with a short rev its 4 hits, which should equate in to 16 stacks

[scarlet gale]

Question, for the penace for 10 aurics without dying, the wording says 10 consecutive auric levels, does this mean you cannot do havocs or anything else and that you need to do 10 aurics strictly

[keen flume]

It will only count Auric missions

So if you wanna play other modes or normal difficulty it will keep track of it until you play Auric again

[storm glen]

Does this mean i just have to do one thats 25 or higher or must i get my own lvl to 25?

[keen flume]

You can host or join someone party, it also does work on 25 and above

[lime idol]

Rev attacks are considered as “single attack instances” and don’t stack talents or blessings multiple times from the same attack

[versed ice]

best mode to rescue people after they die? got 18 more rescues for penance 484/500

[vernal plaza]

Find bad players and clutch

[vocal nacelle]

malice or normal damnation

[rigid wasp]

Psykers stacking uncanny on deimos and obscurus specials

[zealous dome]

It won't stack shred though

[lime idol]

force sword's special-activated attacks are slightly different in code afaik

[tame slate]

Hi i need help to get a team to do the True Survivor. I dont have any troubles not going down but those pesky randoms do seem to like eating the ground 😅

[sonic osprey]

Q) Is there an indicator that shows if my next Blitz will be Empowered?

[marsh elbow]

Hey what is best build to complete twins on damn..???pls

[marsh elbow]

Class doesn’t matter for me can build anything on any class

[graceful raptor]

you have a buff from your keystone, in the buff bar

[kind flame]

for which class?

[vocal nacelle]

3 ogryn 1 vet

[shadow skiff]

Vet brings Field Improv btw.

[red ginkgo]

Ogryn with the biggest daka you can find

[marsh elbow]

On fb they said chorus spam so it’s no good?

[vocal nacelle]

FB? Facebook?

[marsh elbow]

Yep 🙂

[marsh elbow]

There is also darktide group 🤣

[vocal nacelle]

uuhh okay i guess bit unexpected

you want something to skip the twins early stage, the best choice is ogryn with flame bullets

[marsh elbow]

I can just ring the bells and am right at end

[marsh elbow]

Can u send build for that flame or can some help me ? I am running zealot 90% but can change but curios will be shit on other classes

[vocal nacelle]

early stage in the arena

[marsh elbow]

Aha sry

[vocal nacelle]

change hail of fire to light them up

you can also remove attention seeker and payback time to pick best defense on top for 1v1 purpose

.

if you dont know how to use branx, use karsolas instead

[kindred shell]

hey

im having problems with my mods

they are not loading

the framework is but not the mods

[keen flume]

Have you tried to update them?

[kindred shell]

yea

did the framework as well

[keen flume]

Including the mod loader and framework?

[kindred shell]

yea

the mods wont even show

like i installed and updated them many times never had this happen

[keen flume]

Have you make sure to unpatch and patch from the loader within the files

[little coyote]

did you run the .bat script to enable them

[kindred shell]

yea

did this

couple of times

with administrator

[little coyote]

last thing I've got is make sure that all the mod names are listed in the mod list file correctly

don't think admin privileges are needed

[kindred shell]

yes i made sure of that as well

[marsh elbow]

I’ll try this thanks a lot

[vocal nacelle]

when the shield break just use ult and shoot

[dark jay]

Can anyone help me cheese the on overwatch penance?

[graceful raptor]

why do you need to cheese one of the easiest penances?..

[kind flame]

I can

[brave zenith]

Anyone free for a private game to help me get the Malleus Monstronum penance?

[kind flame]

sure

[storm glen]

So ive been grinding havoc for the new cosmetics and it feels like im doing the same like 3 missions over and over again. Does havoc have a map rotation or am i just super unlucky?

[fickle ether]

Unlucky

[pseudo barn]

anyone down to help me get my just a flesh wound for my zealot? #zealot-class

[lime idol]

we can try

[pseudo barn]

Alright my code is 3379261468

[lime idol]

Give me like 5-10 mins

[pseudo barn]

I’m unable to talk because I have family on a work call outside my room

[lime idol]

That’s fine

[pseudo barn]

Great

[lime idol]

vc? u don't have to talk

[dark jay]

Can anyone help me get havoc 25?

[pseudo barn]

They are still on the call unfortunately

[lime idol]

all good

[lime idol]

We took too long

[pseudo barn]

What’s killing me is have to be so low on health all the time

[lime idol]

Or well, I took too long to kite the 2 BoNs

[lime idol]

Nah it’s genuinely not the hard part

The hard part is for u to not die

You keep taking chip damage and that’s what’s making it hard

[pseudo barn]

Yeah

[lime idol]

Do u know how the blue toughness bar works

[pseudo barn]

I do I just have to stay with you I keep falling behind bc I need to get damaged to one wound

[lime idol]

No the thing is you can keep health just under 1 wound really safely

[pseudo barn]

Would getting another person help ?

[lime idol]

But ur on low toughness like 80% the time I check on u

Idk what’s causing u to lose so much toughness

[pseudo barn]

Me trying to damage myself

[lime idol]

With a full team that’s running support to keep u alive it should be very doable

[lime idol]

The strat is very simple
Find red barrel, damage health under 1 wound
Stay <1 wound the entire mission and don’t take additional damage

U took so much additional damage that I’m telling u to heal up just so u don’t die

[pseudo barn]

Ok

I’ll look for a barrel 👍

[lime idol]

The problem is still chip damage for u

I’m being serious do u know how toughness works

[polar portal]

Basically: If your toughness is not full, some of damage bleeds through to your health

[pseudo barn]

In general yes I’m still getting used to how zealot doves to get toughness I know everyone gets some from melee kills

Dodges

[lime idol]

Ok so

Toughness absorbs all ranged damage until broken, like warzone armor / apex shield

Toughness mitigates melee damage based on its percentage from full

[polar portal]

Once you get your health down to 1 wound (presumably on 0 extra wound build), you want to keep your toughness topped up.

[pseudo barn]

Ok I didn’t know that

[lime idol]

If u have let’s say 90% toughness, 10% of that melee attack’s damage goes to ur health, and 90% goes to toughness

Low toughness = you’re gonna die buddy

[pseudo barn]

Ok

I’ll stack 3 toughness curios

[lime idol]

Usually zealot takes 2 toughness curios minimum, 3rd depends

[polar portal]

if you have a really good health one it might help too for this particular challenge

[lime idol]

U can avoid getting shot at by dodging, sprinting and sliding

https://youtu.be/Zdm-8MvLpUI

[polar portal]

with 2 wounds (on heresy) you've got 50% of HP to work with and a health curio brings it up a little, which bothj boosts that 50% and gives more room for corruption damage on your "reserved" wound
