[pseudo barn]

Ok 👍

[lime idol]

there's an audio cue if a melee attack is about to hit you but it's outside of your FOV

do u know what it sounds like

[pseudo barn]

Got it👍

Yes

I stacked more Healy hope it will help

Health

[lime idol]

TLDR

Don’t get shot if u can avoid it
Remember to attacks

If low on toughness for whatever reason, immediately go into defense mode and try to block attacks that u can’t dodge

Minimize any kind of damage u take

This penance is about minimizing the damage u take

I will also say

It would probably be easier for u if u run the middle ability

[pseudo barn]

Ok I’ve not been really fighting just sliding avoiding mostly which is the problem

[lime idol]

So u can give urself gold toughness

[pseudo barn]

Ok

[lime idol]

The first solution to almost every problem in this game can be summed up as “striking accurately with intent to kill”

U simply don’t have to worry about enemies hitting u if they’re all dead

[pseudo barn]

Ok I’ve made adjustments to my build

[pseudo barn]

Right

[lime idol]

this is not a good build (generally speaking) but it might keep u alive better for now

if in trouble
press ability and give urself some breathing room + gold toughness

this is only 25 points so u can make it rn

[pseudo barn]

Ok 👍

[lime idol]

Are u still unable to vc

U don’t have to talk u can just mute urself

As long as u can listen

[pseudo barn]

I can listen

[lime idol]

Do u have a fast move speed weapon

Like revolver / laspistol / boltpistol

[pseudo barn]

I bought a las

Yeah it was on cooldown

[pseudo barn]

It was on cooldown I used it at a bad time

Yes

Got it

No

No

I got it last night I didn’t use it yet today

Yes

So it should be on 90 percent of the time

Ok

[torpid meteor]

wow there are like no pins here

[dark jay]

Who can help me reach havoc 25?

[green plank]

Hi, i havent gotten my rewards at all even though I got the completion screen. Any idea how to get it? I desperately need the diamentine cuz im dry af

nvm relogging worked

[brave breach]

Bro will do anything for diamantine

I feel that, I need plasteel bad

[void swallow]

Somehow i have 4 extra points that i cant use in mastery since everything its maxed O.o

[fickle ether]

Lighting staff? If so yea that's the only that I know does that

Can Anyone Help me Complete "Just a Flesh Wound" ?

[lime idol]

sure

what's your FS friend code

[verbal knot]

Any tips on how to do the dodge 500 reaper shots penances,

They don't fire bullets, they fire garbage trucks so I'm a little lost

[lime idol]

Be veteran, take duck & dive talent then use a ranged weapon with stripped down blessing, run around them as they shoot at u

[graceful raptor]

or take the +stamina on dodging bullets while running perk

[knotty hinge]

are you able to disable the weapon swap with the scroll wheel? i find it annoying that using it switches weapons

[little coyote]

yeah just switch the next weapon and previous weapon binds to something random, iirc that's how I did it

[vernal plaza]

Just swap keybind?

[knotty hinge]

yeh i didnt see it lol

[warm elk]

how does havoc pick regions?

does it auto select the hosts mission board region? or does it randomly select one based on the memebers playing?

[red ginkgo]

I think it's based on the region you select in the main mission terminal, no?

Since that's also how the party finder feature also picks regions

[warm elk]

I had horrible ping issues when i played with people from SEA and NA but when a second person from EU joined it got fixed

also ive had it change after missions when different people joined the strike team

[lone dragon]

So is it true, that you have increased crit chance when attacking enemies from behind? Tested it as ogryn who has 2.5% base and it indeed seems much higher than that while doing that. How much higher is it?

[sonic osprey]

Q) Newbie here. Is there a consensus/recommendation for each weapon .. on what are the "must-have" stats (i.e. 80% rolls) and what are dump-stats?

[vocal nacelle]

depends on class

most weaponn dump stat is defense/mobility

[sonic osprey]

I play Psyker - what about the staffs? what are the dump stats for those? @vocal nacelle

[vocal nacelle]

for melee force weapon is warp resist

for staff is quell speed i think

[vocal nacelle]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2917274959 check this

[smoky ember]

no

there’s a mod called show crit chance

that lets you see your current crit chance at all times

[random flax]

all the mod gone ?

[signal gate]

Game updated

[lone dragon]

I just ran the mod loader bat again and then it worked

[fickle ether]

Every update big or small you will always need to rerun the toggle mods

[sonic osprey]

hey guys, it seems there a bunch of darktide wiki's... which is the "best" one?

[fickle ether]

This is my goto place for most things Darktide related. https://darktide.gameslantern.com Can find just about everything you need to know in the Database tab.

[sonic osprey]

Which of these 3 Combat Axes's is the "best" one to invest in? My understanding is that the rarity(i.e. green blue orange), Blessings and Perks is mostly irrelevant because all of that can be customized by Hadron. Therefore, the main thing to focus on is the stat rolls... and hence the best one is actually the GREEN combat axe. Correct?

[fickle ether]

You almost always want the dump stat aka the 60% stat to be mobility or defence. As for most weapons/builds you don't really need those stats. I would keep the green axe but maybe someone can give you a good reason why dumping the first target/any other stat there would be better.

[signal gate]

left

[fierce sandal]

Green. It's less that mobility/defence aren't desirable, dodge count is pretty great. It's more that the gains after 60 on those stats are just negligible. You get the 4 dodges or however many after 50 percent.

[jaunty junco]

is there any place where I can ask for technical problems

[vocal nacelle]

Here or forum

#🎒support-issues

[jaunty junco]

ah thanks

[keen oracle]

Does a weapons base rating matter when upgrading? Or does only stat distribution matter

[steel tulip]

Only the max stat distribution truly matters. So long as you can hit a max stat of 80% on all of the stats that are not the dump stat it's good.

[keen oracle]

Great, thanks for the help

[sonic osprey]

Q) How often does Melk refresh his shop?

[fickle ether]

Every day you can see the timer at the bottom when in the shop. Atm 3 hrs 49 mins to reset.

[zenith cairn]

Potentially the wrong chat, but do yall know how to set the havoc level when you're making a party?

[keen flume]

You cant really set them up, you will need to play the missions and level up

Like if you are to join a public havoc 16 lobby and you complete it, you now ranked to 16

[storm glen]

Btw, wounds isnt health right? Its literally just the amount of times you can go down right?

[keen flume]

Yes if your wounds are not entirely corrupted

Which the corruption reduces your max health, preventing to heal unless Simms and medicae

[sinful summit]

isnt this the guide that recommends to dump crit bonus on the surge staff lmao

[sonic osprey]

Q) Newbie questio.
When using the Assault Chainaxe, the Special only charges up the next attack... now, I dont understand the Bloodthurty talent ("+crit chance on melee attack AFTER special attack KILL")... the Special Attack itself will never KILL?

[sinful summit]

its referring to an attack that has been activated with the special

Hey how’s it going everyone, if it isn’t to much to ask can someone give me some ideas for talents and curios build for a veteran running the Vraks autogun?

[kind flame]

this could help

[sly parrot]

Preferably with screenshots. I’m just trying to get a a solid build going that melts through enemies that way I can complete a maelstrom mission and try my hand at auric

[smoky ember]

lol it does

lmfao

[lone dragon]

My biggest qualm with the guide is ranking toughness coherency regeneration in S tier but not mentioning having an enemy near you disables it. I mean he is talking about avoiding taking chip damage, which is kind of a thing melee enemies do to you.

[ornate stag]

is there something up with my settings? only one havoc party up

or is the game just slow rn

[fickle ether]

Most likely just slow

Don't find alot of groups looking for havoc

[sonic osprey]

Hi everyone, I am look at mods and some mods havent been updated in over 1 year -- anyone know if they still work? For example, Scoreboard, DarkCache, etc

[vocal nacelle]

scoreboard yes

[sonic osprey]

But I heard PowerDI is better?

[vocal nacelle]

i dont think you need dark cache anymore

[vocal nacelle]

it is but i just wanna check the "general" score not every detail

[sonic osprey]

Same, I just want summary stats... but I heard Scoreboard is inaccurate?

[keen flume]

That only seems to happen with bosses either not accurate or not counted

From my experience

[sinful summit]

nope
all mods no longer work
not a single one

[sonic osprey]

oh shit, really??

I just spent 30 mins getting a bunch :(

[sinful summit]

oh this is the help channel not zealot chat oops
i cant shitpost

nearly every mod should be updated to the current patch

[keen flume]

Try to look around the most recently updated popular ones if it catches your eyes

[quick wave]

Where do I ask for a team to help me with a Penance?

[vernal plaza]

Took down a bit of fps and no quick checking, id rather run ovenproof with a few tweaks

[wheat stream]

is it possible to upgrade the blessing on curios?

[dapper shard]

Nope, it currently isn’t possible. Fatshark is supposedly having a curio rework on their radar, so that might be alleviated in the future.

[sonic osprey]

there is a "Scoreboard" and a "Overproof Scoreboard plugin" (this one will never be updated apparently).

[vernal plaza]

You always need the base scoreboard mod, the rest is simply extra stuff built into it
You need to tinker with both mods settings, otherwise its just wall of text

[smoky ember]

LMFAO

[dark kindle]

hi m8s
there i can find a team here to go to 5 golden?

[pseudo barn]

Hello everyone I had some questions about getting into havoc

First question when going for the armors is that unlock shared across all characters or if it separate?

Second question how did you guys know you were havoc ready I’ve got like 78 hours already and the only thing I can think of is I guess be able to run the 5th difficulty well

Any tips for havoc are appreciated thanks.

[void forge]

Penances are account wide my dude, always have been

And havocs start at malice, like 1-10 I believe

[dense tulip]

1. Across all characters

2. Depends on what havoc we talking. If you're feeling comfortable on Auric board, especially Auric Maelstrom, you can try pushing for Havoc 40. If not, you can just stick to lower Havoc difficulties, 1-10 is approx. Malice level difficulty, 11-20 is Heresy, with auric intensity activating at 16+, and 21+ is Damnation, with second auric intensity tier activating at 30+

General tip on feeling comfortable with certain difficulty is if you don't fall down all that often, it's a good idea to try higher diff

[pseudo barn]

Ok I just didn’t want to be one of those people that cause others to lose their progress towards being done with havoc in general I’ve never done damnnation but I think it’s time make that jump

[dense tulip]

Good luck!

[storm glen]

How big is the difficulty spike from havoc 20 -25?

[keen flume]

https://tenor.com/view/vietnam-flashback-traumatized-cat-gif-7852054576948114551

thats where the fun really begins

[worthy comet]

Difficulty spikes are usually when you get the next stack of emperors fading light from my experience

[red ginkgo]

It's not too bad :)

[worn bramble]

Hello folks! I'm a bit confused by the ending of Dark Communion, gameplay wise. Are the enemies inside the green circles supposed to be able to shoot us through the walls? Or just walk past it?

[hushed chasm]

Squeak (the enemies inside the green circles are just guarding the psykers maintaining the barriers, with much lower aggro range)

Squeak (they can however walk through the walls when aggroed)

[dense tulip]

https://tenor.com/view/lovely-mouse-kawaii-cat-rat-gif-16418468

[hushed chasm]

squeak ._.

[worn bramble]

Thank you very much Mr Rat!

[hushed chasm]

squeak (you are very welcome fren) ;D

[raw oracle]

anyone know where this frame is from? i can't find what penance or event it's from >_<

[wild valve]

tactical -> team -> 4th in 2nd row "use 20 stimms"

[raw oracle]

Ty so much ^_^

[haughty patio]

in the auric missions. whats the large explosion sound followed by radio static?

[fickle ether]

Either sniper spawns or if your doing the event a pack of big guys coming

If it's both modifiers for the misssion the sounds could mean either or as their the same sound

[haughty patio]

hmmmm

[hot lodge]

Are bleed/burn/soulblaze worth using? Seems like most stuff dies fast unless you're struggling

[little coyote]

if you want big damage number, yeah

[stoic locust]

All can be good but bleed is typically weakest, fire can only be spread by spending limited resource, and soulblaze just goes brrrr

[vocal nacelle]

depends on the difficulty

[sinful summit]

they are good in higher difficulties if you have means to apply them widespread, because the higher the difficulty, the denser the groups of enemies, the more enemies recieve dots from whatever aoe

notable sources of widespread dots are shredder grenades for bleed, flamer and infernus recons for burn, purgatus and blazing spirit trauma for soulblaze

in high havoc, the general offensive meta places all of those at the very top because of the quantity of enemies and how much damage they can soak up

https://tenor.com/view/larry-spongebob-observe-watch-me-gif-26839256

soulblaze from purgatus (up to 15 stacks) and perilous combusion (3 stacks to nearby enemies from an elite i kill, can go beyond 15 up to 31 stacks)
and the vet throwing multiple shredder grenades applying up to 16 bleed for another dot for even more widespread damage all at once

[lusty locust]

i thought snipers made no spawn sounds? always assumed it was gunner packs

[kindred inlet]

sniper gauntlet or whatever it's called

[zealous dome]

A wave of sniper has spawn sounds

A single sniper doesn't

You hear this loud noise with what it seems like a Valkyrie dropping them off, then the goggles turning on and the laser noises

[undone moth]

Whats the best relic sword and how do i play it

[lusty locust]

Ahh cool. I'll keep an ear out for it. I've heard the static one and assumed it was the brutes, or like the modifier spawning.
There's definitely some cues I'm not 100% on though and just assumed some were 'horde' spawns or ambience as they're not always directly followed by action or things appearing

[sonic osprey]

Q) Is there a mod that explains all the buff indicators in the UI ? For example

[smoky ember]

unfortunately not that i know of, however you can look at kuli’s guide

https://steamcommunity.com/id/kulii/myworkshopfiles/?section=guides&appid=1361210

which gives in depth explanations for all talents and weapon blessings and such

along with their icons that show up in the buff bar

actually

@fallow drift , can we pin a link to kuli’s guide in here?

Guides with in depth explanations of talents, blessings, and curio perks.

https://steamcommunity.com/id/kulii/myworkshopfiles/?section=guides&appid=1361210

[smoky ember]

thaaank you

[fallow drift]

done deal

[smoky ember]

[sonic osprey]

This symbol refers to the "Tranquility through Slaughter" talent, but I dont even have that talent!? Is there anyway to check the effect of my buffs ??

[uneven bough]

it's surety of arms

[sharp palm]

Not that big

With decent cohesion you'll probably not notice it

[rain lava]

Is there anyone available to help with the "just a flesh wound" penance?

[lime idol]

I could help

[rain lava]

cool! i'll head into strike team 2

[lime idol]

sry forgot to leave strike team

[rain lava]

no worries i completely forgot too 🤣

thanks again!

[broken pine]

how do you rank up blessings now?

[void forge]

mastery page

once youve unlocked the blessing via mastery, you will have to apply it to your weapon at hadron

[broken pine]

thank you

[tall oasis]

do you get Materials on failed runs? so if i pic up plasteel but squad wipe do we still get them, same with the green skulls you shoot?

[keen flume]

You still get materials on failed runs

[tall oasis]

ok thank you. was getting lots of mixed signals from reddit and such lol

[keen flume]

I dont pay much attention when it comes to failed runs because i go to the next mission but i think that you get the materials that your team has been collecting

[vocal nacelle]

You get less

[tall oasis]

i looked on reddit and saw people saying you shouldnt since it leads to farming (so yes) then i saw people say its bs you dont get rewards so whats the point of playing hard difficulties. (so no) lol

[tall oasis]

ok if its less thats perfectly fine

[vocal nacelle]

On normal damnation you get around 1k plasteel and 300 diamantine

But if you die i think you get half from what team collected during mission

[tall oasis]

thank you ❤️ i was just curious. still fairly new only 40 hours lol

[sonic osprey]

Whats the difference between Auric and Havoc? other than the modifiers?

[vocal nacelle]

intensity and nerfs

you get nerfed in havoc less health, ammo ,toughness
enemy got buffed

[graceful raptor]

enemies shoot faster, the fading light modifier

regular enemies are waaay more dangerous in general

when in auric you are just spammed with specials

the last one is about maelstroms only tho, so nm

[shadow skiff]

Nope, applies to normals aurics, just a lesser degree.

[graceful raptor]

i notice it only with the waves of specials mod

[shadow skiff]

You can have 3-4 trappers, 3-4 muties, 3-4 flamers, 3-4 bombers and so on at the same time.

If the director wants you dead.

[graceful raptor]

hate these waves

and especially with weakened bosses

so not fun

[shadow skiff]

Is not waves of. Just high int stg.

[graceful raptor]

you're just staying with your team in one spot waiting for all specials to come out

[sonic osprey]

Why is the rating of this curio only 270 when I have 3 lvl 4 Perks ?

[dapper shard]

Rating is based on the blessing power, I.e., the value of Health/Toughness/Stamina/Wounds increase

[lusty locust]

Max toughness is 16/17% so that's the effect of rating.
(I still swear 17% toughness and 21% health are myths, never seen or gotten one 😭)

[silver tusk]

what part of michigan?

[tall oasis]

muskegon

[silver tusk]

bay city (for now)

[silver tusk]

theres a dj (prim) from muskegon im in love with lol

[tall oasis]

ahh fair lol

[jaunty junco]

hiya

anyone know why I can't host a party finder for havoc?

[zealous dome]

Clear your filters
Press E

[jaunty junco]

ooooo

thanks

[zealous dome]

No idea why they have filters on by default though

[jaunty junco]

I thought I needed to redo a mission or smtn

thaks

[wheat karma]

Are the servers having some trouble?

I keep getting disconnected from them or lag spike for minutes on end through a mission

Actually on this. Is there a way to check ping, or what game server your connected to?

[fickle ether]

Where you can change your match to private you can also check the region your in. Shows your ping there and no where else.

[keen flume]

You only can change your matches to private when you have two players in your party

There is no official ping monitor though, only through mods

[fickle ether]

...

go to mission board hit E check region it also shows your ping

Only place you can check it just cant mid match

[wheat karma]

fack

[fickle ether]

That's DT nothing is easy to find out about without being told by someone

[lime cargo]

I think I've found that making my character shorter makes some weapon slashing angles harder to hit heads with. Is this just in my head?

[fickle ether]

Yea height matters for stuff like that

[lime cargo]

Makes sense, I wasn't totally sure it'd make a difference in first person tbh.

I think it did get better when I raised the height though.

Now that I think of it, being taller definitely makes it a little easier to hit the plague ogryn's head. Lol

[fickle ether]

Height maxing out here

[lime cargo]

Is there any reason to make a non-ogryn character short?

[keen flume]

The height can make it easy to hit targets

[keen flume]

If you are to make yourself more easy to dodge incoming fire from enemies

[lime cargo]

Oh, I guess I didn't expect that to make a difference VS AI

[shut tangle]

are there any mods i can use or some way to increase site visiblity?

[fickle ether]

Like scopes cause yea there's a mod for that

Or are you talking about all the particles the game can spam you with

[shut tangle]

i mean tlike a scope, or even just putting a bright reticle on my screen, im blind games a lot harder than it used to be lol

[fickle ether]

https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kdarktide/mods/277

Should be part of the base game but not gonna happen

[shut tangle]

omg ok ty lol could be a game changer fo rme 😄

[fickle ether]

really is iron sights can be very hit or miss in the game

[shut tangle]

one last question if you dont mind, is it possibler to back up my characters saves somehow? or will this for sure not brick my saves if i mess it up i could jsut reeinstall or something?

i have a lot of investment into them just havnt played in a while

[fickle ether]

I don't think there's a way to mess that up if you follow the modding guide or the very least I've never heard of that being a problem before.

[shut tangle]

ok sweet ty 🙂

[fickle ether]

Np welcome to modding you never stop at one

[shut tangle]

lol ive now found a few

[fickle ether]

There's alot of QOL out there for mods very hard not get atleast a few more

[shut tangle]

im not installing the mods yet, need some help from soneonw ho can read the tuff for me just looking around at them, is vortex good to use with these it shows up in vortex but needs manually added locations or soemthing

[fickle ether]

better not using vortex but it can be done

[smoky ember]

ive seen people have issues with vortex somewhat commonly

and installing mods is super easy

so id recommend just doing it manually

[shut tangle]

ok glad i asked 😄

[broken pine]

where do you access the waking giants ?

[zealous dome]

Look for the Hexagon icon on the missions in the terminal

[broken pine]

thank you

[lime cargo]

Is damnation a big jump from heresy?

[stoic locust]

Its easier

(being serious)

[fickle ether]

I wouldn't say it's that big of a jump but as always it depends on how the Ai is vibing with that mission and teammates

[stoic locust]

Damnation is typically easier on account of more competent teams on average

[vocal nacelle]

you know the game mechanic (dodge,push,tag, slide) ? if yes its easy

if you dont know its hard cue the silent poxburster

[proven oracle]

My game losts it icon
How do i fix it?

[kindred inlet]

unpin and repin it. or delete the exe and verify your game.

or perhaps you can just make a copy of the exe (deleting the original) and use that instead. not sure what causes this to happen

[proven oracle]

does enabling mods cause it to happen?

[kindred inlet]

i dont think so, i dont get this issue much and i always have mods.

[proven oracle]

it only become that if I launch it through steam

[lime cargo]

That's big actually. A fair amount of my heresy games have been a lot of reviving people lol

The big boi spam has been a little bit rough, so I just switched to shocky fingers and spam that whenever a group of them shows up

[stoic locust]

Ew, but I understand it

(smite is heavily disliked because of its fundamental mechanical flaws that make it highly unbalanced and unfun to interact with, among lots of other things)

[lime cargo]

I usually like using brain burst, but stunlocking all the elites has been helping my teams a lot so far

[neon galleon]

Apart from teammates skill, the other #1 difference is stuff takes more damage to kill so you need to be able to put out more damage. taking damage doesn't really feel too much different

[brave breach]

yeah stuff is just tankier, crusher and maulers already demolished you in heresy so thats not that different

[jaunty junco]

yooo

what was the thing about +3 stamina curios?

was the bugged one at 400 or 410?

[zealous dome]

400
So the one you posted should be +3

[jaunty junco]

alright cool!

thanks

[sonic osprey]

Do all missions have grimoire's as pickup? how can I check beforehand?

[little coyote]

each mission can have if it's listed as the secondary objective for that particular instance

[sonic osprey]

Q) Are all headshots considered "weak spot" ?

[little coyote]

ye

[keen oracle]

Beast of Nurgle has the weakspot on its back. Outside of that, I think heads are all weakspots

Not sure if the chaos spawn has a head lol

[steel tulip]

It does

[shadow skiff]

The funny tentacle in the mouth is also another weakspot. You can hit it while it's still in the BoN btw. 250% vs 300% (Back spot) from memory.

[keen oracle]

[lusty locust]

wait what?

[shadow skiff]

Yeah, shoot it. It's a weaker and harder to hit weakspot.

Pinpoint center of it's mouth when it's not out.

[lusty locust]

To be fair i'm usually too busy trying to smash it's yellow back spot in

[broken pine]

how important are Curios?

[fickle ether]

Very

[steel tulip]

They can provide significant bonuses to your toughness (incredibly useful), Stamina (Very useful), Health (Useful), and wounds (realistically only useful for a Martyrdom build for zealot).

That, and the three lines of effects can provide pretty substantial buffs in their own right. Even more toughness, faster combat ability Regen, more health, block efficiency, et cetera.

They are definitely not something to skip out on, doing so leaves a lot on the table.

[broken pine]

thanks for lettingme know

[simple locust]

what is finesse?

[steel tulip]

Critical hit and weak spot damage

[lime idol]

if shown on a weapon's stat card, %finesse can also affect attack animation speed
everywhere else, it's related to weakspot, crit and crit-weakspot damage

[serene latch]

@rocky birch you're wrong btw

[rocky birch]

brother, i admitted that,

so would you kindly stop.

[serene latch]

ahh okok

[ashen sandal]

Wolf trying to have a plan with Ammonition be like:

[sonic osprey]

How do I increase the number of wound slots?

apart from getting curios that is

[vocal nacelle]

curio or zealot

more wounds not that helpful

[steel tulip]

Yea, definitely not that helpful

[dawn bridge]

can i keep demoting myself down to havoc 1 to farm penance?

[fickle ether]

Think you can go to the havoc board then hit R on pc should do the trick never really tested it myself but it does say it will.

[sonic osprey]

whats the benefot of penance points that you accumilate?

[dawn bridge]

it's more for the havoc armour pieces

[rocky birch]

cosmetics

[sonic osprey]

Hi guys, I have a lvl 60 psyker but want to start a second character... any recommendations?

[graceful raptor]

vet, or zealot, or ogryn

[dense tulip]

Vet if you like ranged gameplay, Zealot if you want to slice and dice, and Ogryn if you want to be big and have good CC

[silent vortex]

You guys ever have a issue where nothing you do changes your loadout?

[fickle ether]

Where it seems to keep resetting to your old talents before changing? Have that all the time on my psyker just exit out of the character stuff then go back in should update it.

[silent vortex]

not my talents my wepaons I dleted the class the old one or loadout and its stuck on it and c ant seem to switch it

[fickle ether]

Can't help you there sadly never had that problem

[silent vortex]

😦

thanks for the trying

[fickle ether]

Im sure someone here has dealt with that just have to wait abit

[abstract flame]

Anyone have a build for zealot or vet that would make "time to die III" easy? (The penance to kill a monstrosity in 5 seconds)

[lusty locust]

Thammer with thrust can decimate them. One shot with combat stim

[abstract flame]

Alright sounds like a good plan

Thank you kindly

[lusty locust]

I think there was build somewhere in zealot chat for it. Though braving that channel is a feat upon itself.

[abstract flame]

I hang out there

(I'm crazy i can't get crazier)

(I was crazy once - )

[sonic osprey]

Q) I have DD and PowerDI reports the number of buffs for "Linger Influence" , but I don't care about the absolute number... how can I calculate buff uptime? because at the end of the day, buff uptime determines if DD is worth it or not...

Any PowerDI veterans can assist me with this?

[stoic locust]

DD is basically always up if you take the 10 second stacks upgrade, just get a second buff bar mod, stick it near your peril meter, and put your keystones there

[sonic osprey]

Can someone recommend good youtube vids of Veteran, Zealot and Ogryn players?

[kind flame]

a decent Zealot https://youtube.com/@mrunc?feature=shared

[broken raft]

And a vet

[sinful summit]

Jsat emorist reginald combine00

[stoic locust]

You need to start posting clips so you can link yourself

[sinful summit]

i do have some but not many, and theyre mostly solos/duos and havoc trios
those guys above do more interesting challenges like recently they did an all ogryn havoc 40 dive comp with a focus on speed with no guns

[ornate stag]

what is a martyrdom build?

[sinful summit]

martyrdom is a zealot keystone that gives you buffs for every wound you have that is missing health

the more wounds you have, the more wounds you can have empty, the more buffed you can get

[steel tulip]

^^^ that's pretty much it

[rigid wasp]

Hey just a quick question what power level do courios max out at?. Sorry if misspelt

[wild valve]

410 rating or more gives +3 stamina, on others rating doesn't matter and max is +1 wound / +17% toughness / +21% hp

[rigid wasp]

Thank you 👍

[frigid lichen]

Hello. It's been a while for me. I'm trying to get some... high rating base weapons. I see that we're up to 500 now, but the ones i get from the vendor seem to be in the 200-300 range.

[shadow skiff]

You can upgrade them at Hadron.

[frigid lichen]

I also see you no longer extract Blessings from weapons to put them on other weapons. What do we do with items above Green we no longer need? Is there anything else apart from Sacrificing them for weapon mastery?

Can you still sell them for gold?

[keen flume]

Yes you still can and the higher rarity of a weapon it will also sell materials

[frigid lichen]

So should I sell anything above Green quality instead of Sacrificing?

[keen flume]

Purple weapons will sell plasteel
Orange weapons sell diamantine

[keen flume]

If you feeling like
But greens or blue weapons of same family are worth for sacrificing

If you got ton of purples and oranges from the drops you are free to sell for the materials if you are in need for them

[frigid lichen]

do you get more mastery for sacrificing same category weapons?

like does sacrificing Thunder Hammers give your Thunder Hammer mastery more points than if you sacrificed something else?

[keen flume]

Yes

Sacrifing same weapon family does give you far more mastery experience

[smoky ember]

yes, by about 5x

[shadow skiff]

Just don't do it till they fix the crashing.

[leaden fjord]

Woopz..

[ancient wren]

How do I place a World Marker in the training? My middle mouse button doesn't press down so I changed marking to a different hotkey, but there doesn't seem to be a hotkey for world markers so I can't progress?

Or maybe it says to scroll up? not sure but it doesn't put a world marker either way

[stoic locust]

Double tap

[ancient wren]

that didn't work for me, my middle mouse button doesn't work so I changed my keybinds for the normal marking, but double tapping it did not work. Do you know any other way?

[stoic locust]

Double tap the ping key is the default bind for world pings so idk what to tell you

Theres also hold ping and then wheel select

[ancient wren]

Yeah I just need to Place a World Marker to progress, it says middle mouse button with an up arrow but scrolling up doesn't do anything, nor does double tapping the normal marking key.

Ah, it was the hold ping and wheel select. Thanks friend

[smoky ember]

lmfao

[silk egret]

looking at the challenges for havoc do you get the other cosmetics cause the only ones i see look like there for vet

[sinful summit]

each penance rewards that associated piece for all classes

you see the vet one cuz youre currently on vet

[silk egret]

ok thanks alot i found i weird cause theres def a bug i swapped from zelot the ogryn and it was the same helmet

[simple locust]

my antivirus is flagging darktide.exe as a virus?

anyone else have this or just me

[vocal nacelle]

you use antivirus?

[graceful raptor]

noorgel veerus...

[teal rapids]

THE PLAGUE CONSUMES

[signal gate]

What anti virus lol. Both windows store and steam should run just fine without issues

[simple locust]

norton

[signal gate]

If you are on windows just use windows defender it’s completely fine for the modern age, just don’t do shady shit

Norton is basically a virus in of itself so have fun getting rid of it

Oh and a good adblocker

[smoky ember]

they fell for the sponsorships

its soooo over

[smoky ember]

atop what bandit said, if ur ever worried about possibly having a virus, you can just use malwarebytes and do a scan, its free and plenty effective

windows defender as your passive defense and if ur super worried

just do a malwarebytes scan

and then ur good !

[simple locust]

alr thanks you two

[broken raft]

Try to follow mcafee's how to uninstall mcafee guide

[frigid lichen]

What are the best Relic Sword blessings for a Zealot?

[zealous dome]

Cranial Grounding + Rampage/Heatsink
Cranial Grounding + Wrath for High Havoc

[leaden fjord]

Go into ur firewall settings, and your protection on ur antivirus, and in both of those put the entire Steam folder as an exception

With malware bytes it's fairly easy to add an exception, idk about Norton

A lot of antiviruses, including Defender, have realtime protection that can stop certain programs from running if they're flagged

On Windows
Open Windows Security
Select Virus & threat protection
Select Manage settings
Select Exclusions
Select Add or remove exclusions
Select Add an exclusion
Choose the type of exclusion you want to add
Add the file, folder, file type, or process you want to exclude

For the WD Firewall
Press the Windows Key
Type Windows Defender Firewall
Press Enter
Select Allow apps to communicate through Windows Defender Firewall
Find the app you want to add an exception for
Check the boxes for the app's name
Click OK

For Norton
Open Norton Antivirus
Select Settings
Select Administrative Settings
Scroll to Program Exclusions under Performance Monitoring
Select Configure
Select Add to add an exception

Also what they said id recommend doing the Uninstall a Program function on ur computer and uninstalling Norton

Malwarebytes is free and if ur rlly worried u can pay the pittance for the full thing

Except w Malwarebytes it actually works and isnt just a bunch if scrapcode bundled up together

The sum of Norton's parts is a 3rd of windows 7's version of Microsoft Defender

It's pawful

U dont rlly need an anti virus, especially w 11, as defender is more than good enough on its own

Hope this halpz

Oh ur steam folder is located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam

[jaunty junco]

hiya, I'm trying to hunt for Titles, specifically Nomad.

What does it mean to complete "The Hourglass"

[lime idol]

Complete all martyr skull, heretic idol and mission completed penances related to maps set in the hourglass area

[jaunty junco]

I think I've seen Refinery Delta 17 and Relay Station TRS 150

but not Excise Vault Spireside 13

[jaunty junco]

gotchaaa

[lime idol]

Excise is out of rotation rn due to a game breaking bug

[jaunty junco]

😦

man

[leaden fjord]

Yah

U also have 2 play a shit ton of the map

I want nomad too it's like the last mission title i need

[jaunty junco]

how long has it been out? I don't think I've seen it since I bought the game in December

[leaden fjord]

But hourglass might makes me wanna pull my teefz out

[red ginkgo]

If you are not against using mods, try using 'Many More Try' or MMT. Can play missions that were available on the mission-board up to 24 hours ago

[jaunty junco]

I haven't actually gotten around to using mods, but I did want to apply the true level and scoreboard one for some time.

Does MMT mod also bring out the Excise vault mission? despite not being in the rotation?

[lament trellis]

I do not get the point of brautos, what's the benefit of them over IAGs?

[keen obsidian]

I wuv malware bytes

[smoky ember]

less focus on headshot damage (more raw damage), larger mag sizes

let’s you use them as a quick swap to deal with specials

while still having okay long ranged capabilities

and i think that they inflict more suppression? but i couldn’t say one way or another

for example with the agri brauto, i usually use it to drill through a horde to kill a specific enemy that’s a threat, like a trapper, dog, reaper, etc

[shadow skiff]

No. Cos you can only play maps up to 24 hours before.

[lament trellis]

Ok, I'll give agri one more chance, maybe use F to prop it up before blasting

Was using the light IAG on another build and loved it for those reasons, quick pull out, quick kill, quick melee again

But it does rely on blasting heads

[timid holly]

is there a proper list of all the comsetics ingame? I found this wiki that shows the the items in the game but the thing is i dont think its complete, it's really badly made, and half of the items dont even have photos. Heres the link im referring to: https://warhammer-40k-darktide.fandom.com/wiki/Cosmetics

I feel like there are so many comsetics ingame that havent even been seen in the commodore yet!

[vocal nacelle]

you can use mods to show it all

[timid holly]

Oh fr?

[vocal nacelle]

forgot which mod

[timid holly]

Ill look for it. I guess it just shows all the comsetics but locked

[vocal nacelle]

https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kdarktide/mods/347

i think this one

[timid holly]

Damn. You da best

https://tenor.com/view/cat-thumbs-up-cat-thumbs-up-meme-stock-image-gif-27117830

[signal gate]

Raw damage and less need to headshot, also the agri brauto has some nice cleave

[vapid crescent]

At what point do o start playing Malice? We are lvl 15-17 and we struggle quite a bit on Malice

[graceful raptor]

get gud?

i dunno, darktide is a skill based game mostly

its ok when it takes a while to fully understand all timings and remember all solutions to all situations

[smoky ember]

struggling at lower difficulties is likely both a lack of experience (you’ll get better with time), and a poor build

[sonic timber]

Move up in difficulty when you can clear the previous without taking anything more than chip damage to your health.

[smoky ember]

a poor build can really make the game feel significantly harder

you can post your build and get some advice, if you’d like

[keen obsidian]

How do I fix the back end error? It won’t let me sign in

[vocal nacelle]

When you know how to dodge, block, slide
You cant ooga booga your way you just get whacked by everything when you play malice above

[red ginkgo]

Just play on whatever difficulty till you get bored, then jump up to the next one. There's no rush to be a regular auric/havoc player =>=

[tall pagoda]

anyone know a good way to find penances when reading their name in customization? other than googling them or should i just get to learning

[neat root]

what's a good way to farm diamantine? ive maxed out my ogryn and ive got some god rolls that i want to max out

[fickle ether]

Quick play gives you a extra 10% diamantine per mission just grind that out for abit other than that not too sure how to super grind that out without a 4 man speed run team.

[snow verge]

buy gold-tier shit at melk's and sell everything

[tall pagoda]

also make sure to do the events when they come out

[vocal nacelle]

havoc 40

[fading tree]

I can't start a havoc assignment

unless if I have 2 people in my party

and no one is showing up on the party search

[red ginkgo]

Try changing servers from the mission terminal. The parties you see there are dependent on which server you've selected

Though if you do change servers, may have to deal with high ping

[void swallow]

Everytime I play my psyker build In damnation or higher people keep raging that im doing it wrong and try/do kick me. Any ideas? lately if your not a stun shield build your useless

[graceful raptor]

hard to say

we've not seen your gameplay

[void swallow]

on any other class im usualy in aurics and just havin fun

[vocal nacelle]

Unless you are playing on havoc, all kinds of build is viable on normal modes

[ocean palm]

just noticed these symbols in the mission select, what the difference between there being a skull at the top or not?

[steel tulip]

It refers to the highest difficulty that you have done that particular mission on.

1 to 3 chevrons means that you have done that particular mission at sedition/Uprising/Malice (T1/T2/T3), Heresy is 3 Chevrons and 1 skull (T4), Damnation has 4 Chevrons and 3 skulls (T5).

iirc

an example of T5

I don't have examples of T1 through T4 sadly

But the ones you sent shows one at T3 and the other at T4

This being the T3

This being the T4

I think its account wide as well, but its been forever since I've looked into this

[sonic timber]

OMG I never noticed that before

[steel tulip]

yea, its one of those things that is never explained sadly lol

[sonic timber]

I thought I had everything cleared on damnation. Nope only 2.

[graceful raptor]

i myself noticed it only after 1.3k hrs when someone mentioned it here

[sonic timber]

I get the same 2 maps repeatedly is what this means…. Obviously

[steel tulip]

Tbh, I wouldn't be surprised if Fatshark forgot about this. I'm somewhat surprised that we don't have an auric equivalent to this for Auric T5 and such.

[neat root]

what does havoc 40 mean

havent gotten into havoc missions yet

[graceful raptor]

havoc has 40 levels, each is a bit harder than prev one

with some thresholds that add permanent modificators

like havoc 20 and 30 i think

enemies shoot faster, you die faster

[jaunty junco]

does Auric have them too?

I was gonna ask about them since I was trying to complete penance for each mission on Auric Damn, or does Auric not matter?

[fickle ether]

Would assume it just tracks the highest difficulty as auric isn't a higher one it'll still show the highest you've beaten auric or not. So if you've already beaten it on damnation outside of auric it'll show the 3 skulls even if you haven't done so in auric. But maybe I'm wrong just learned about the whole skull things now.

[steel tulip]

I mentioned a bit after that initial post, but Auric is treated like normal. A T4 from Auric will alter the insignia the same way as if you did the T4 in Normal, the same with T5

[jaunty junco]

ohhh hmm

then I wouldt know which missions I still have auric penances for?

[steel tulip]

It would have been nice if it was unique though

[jaunty junco]

unless I check manually

[steel tulip]

Yes, you'll need to check manually

[jaunty junco]

can every melee slide smoothly like knife and DS?

[sinful summit]

define slide

because they have the furthest dodge/slide distance to the point its gamebreaking and needs to be nerfed
but every weapon can slide and dodge slide

[jaunty junco]

oh its just specific to them? dang

I got used to the Knife slide as a form of movement. Ive been playing around with Caxe and Thammer recently and feel twice the need to slide

and moreso on thammer, feels horrible to use

I like the bonks but man

[sinful summit]

thats why i was asking, they dont have anything unique about them, their general movement profile is just stupidly OP and high

you can dodge slide with every weapon, its just much better with them due to their distance

[sinful summit]

thats also why i try to tell people to not use those weapons first, it builds such terrible habits

im gonna be honest and just say that its straight up you just needing to learn/relearn how to dodge and fight in melee properly

cuz those weapons ruin that memory

[jaunty junco]

I'm aware of the "DS is stupid OP" so I haven't touched that it as much.

I mainly used Relic Blade and Tac Axe then started leveling other things

I did really enjoy knife though, shame I might need to bench it

Caxe has been my recent go to, overhead heavies from it feel great and isn't as slow as THammer -- great at hordes too

[vocal nacelle]

Try crusher

[main citrus]

Thammer movement has been improved -- the smallest bit. IMO it's good to build around being able to move as Thammer -- cause -- uh -- you take a lot of hits otherwise. Chain axe is pretty good when paired with ranged weapons that don't have great armor pen.

I use chain axe and brauto if the build is focused on ranged specifically.

If I'm focused on crit it'll be something more like inf lasgun and rashad/t axe.

I don't usually play thammer now -- because -- if I wanted to move slow I'd play ogryn.

[hearty flare]

is there any reason the party finder doesnt show anything?

[void forge]

Yeah, dead game

Try changing servers

[hearty flare]

wait you can change???

[void forge]

Lol yes

Mission selection board> press E

[autumn stratus]

I was about to say "uh what if they're console" checked and guessing not since steam. Still thats actually still funny for me. Hah

[void forge]

can console not change servers? I wouldnt know

[autumn stratus]

I dunno either

Don't have the game on console I use my PC so I have literally no clue but now I hope they can

[brave breach]

Can the toughness bleed damage kill you?

[vernal plaza]

Define toughness bleed damage

[brave breach]

Say you have 1 hp, and you take dmg while not at 100% toughness

[keen flume]

I guess it depends how is your current toughness

[keen flume]

But in that state you would go down very easily with just one hit

[vocal nacelle]

Getting hit by melee yes you get downed

Ranged hit is toughness damage until its gone

[brave breach]

Does it actually matter?

[keen flume]

If I remember while having full toughness you dont suffer any damage unless it is a devasting hit like a crusher overhead

Depending how is your toughness from enemy hits like the more toughness you have the less damage you get and less tough more damage you get

[brave breach]

I said not at 100%

And at 1 hp

Ok, so yes, thanks

[vernal plaza]

Some attack are coded to ignore/bypass toughness

[keen flume]

Nurgle beast tail attack my behated

[vernal plaza]

But any regular melee bleeds toughness based on the missing %

[vocal nacelle]

dog leap deal hp damage

[vernal plaza]

Wasnt that instant 20 corruption unless you have golden toughness

[vocal nacelle]

before leap, if you are nearby dog when it leap it deal hp damage

[gusty whale]

i like to say beloathed for that

[smoky ember]

yes, say you take a melee hit for 100 damage

if you have 100% toughness, 100% of the damage dealt by the melee attack is absorbed by toughness

if you have 75% toughness, then 75 of the damage is absorbed by toughness, and 25 bleeds through

[brave breach]

i was asking specifically in the scenario i gave\

[smoky ember]

but in the situation of one HP

any melee would

yes

[raw smelt]

Hey, I have spent the last 2 weeks in Havoc getting True Survivor/Havoc Forged and armors. I came back to auric (just auric no Maelstrom) and we had 7 wipes in the row. Did they change anything?

[fickle ether]

Playing pubs? If so there's your answer

[raw smelt]

Yeah pubs

[tall oasis]

do you get better rewards for harder difficulties? example, vermintide 2 gave you higher tier chests for harder difficulties

[vocal nacelle]

damnation give 1K plasteel and 300 diamantine

[fickle ether]

You get more dockets and more diamantine/plasteel along with a higher rarity weapon drop

[vocal nacelle]

auric give more dockets

havoc give weekly rewards

[raw smelt]

What about weapon XP?

[fickle ether]

Yes

[tall oasis]

thank you both. whats a good starting point for damnation? locked till 16 but i still feel like a "useless random" lol

[vocal nacelle]

damnation and auric have different value i think

[raw smelt]

Also the weapon/curio rating and rarity?

[vocal nacelle]

wdym?

[vocal nacelle]

Steps of getting good in darktide :

• learn to block on sedition and uprising
• learn to dodge on malice (dodging melee , avoid getting disabled by specials/ push the poxburster)
• learn how to ping an enemy on heresy (tag special if you cant kill it)
• learn something called situational awareness on damnation ( your teammate are disabled, help them)
• in auric you learn the priority list (because there's always a special and elite , know which one to kill first)

[raw smelt]

I mean the reward after a complete mission

[fickle ether]

he has it on copy

[vocal nacelle]

same as damnation

[raw smelt]

But it scales with difficulty which is good

[vocal nacelle]

i dont think emperor gift really matters after weapon crafting rework

[fickle ether]

Really doesn't any more besides extra exp for your weapons

Or if you don't already have a 380 that you like maybe you'll get one but super unlikely

Oh and I guess extra dockets and what not when you scrap it if you don't need the exp

[jaunty junco]

Priority List

[vocal nacelle]

it exist somewhere in your mind

[jaunty junco]

Can I assume that's disablers > gunners/snipers > grenadiers/flamers > melee specials > monstrosities > horde

while kiting

or flamers/grenadiers over gunner snipers since they can potentially mess up the route?

[vocal nacelle]

its interchangeable whatever you feel like it could kill you if you dont kill it now

[jaunty junco]

[vocal nacelle]

monster depends on which one but killing horde first is better than focusing monster

[jaunty junco]

gotcha

[fickle ether]

Idk it's really something you learn the longer you play what's best at that moment to focus

[vocal nacelle]

an example is when you play havoc 40 and monster + captain spawned at the same time if you have ogryn he will brawl them at the same time while other clearing the horde/special/elites

[smoky ember]

kill the captain later because they take forever

i wish captains were more threatening

like, just faster

[raw smelt]

I feel like the captain with sword and fast attacks is the only one who damages people in melee since they are greedy

[graceful raptor]

good

i wish maul one would be at least as dangerous

[smoky ember]

troo

but still they aren’t very dangerous overall

[raw smelt]

I would give the 2H maul overheads with variable timing and better tracking that would punish early dodges. You can't stagger him when he is shielded so it would be more threatening

[graceful raptor]

more big aoe attacks

more frequent

to push players around

[slender sleet]

why those penances where we need be in private games if we dont even have the solo mode :c

[late valley]

Because the community asked them to be made private

That ones super easy though

[slender sleet]

then why ONLY private

[keen flume]

community asked and yet they are still easy to do on publics lol

[late valley]

To be fair it used to be 100%

[brave breach]

100 or 90? either way it was painful

especially on pubs

[wicked talon]

Question, just hit lvl 30. Im kinda lost what to do now. Spam havoc or try damnation?
Does havoc give more rewards than heresy / damnation?
What is this 1-10 havoc mean? Is it just a difficulty factor? Like havoc 10 is close to heresy? Or? Please someone explain to me ♡

[keen flume]

Havoc is more of an end-game mode made for more experienced players and each level of Havoc gets harder

[lime idol]

Do damnation

[lime idol]

Havoc 1-10 is malice scaling
Havoc 11-20 is heresy scaling
Havoc 21-30 is damnation scaling
Havoc 31-40 is true havoc scaling

However due to its unique modifiers they’re generally harder than base malice/heresy/damnation

[keen flume]

Havoc as its own penances and rewards mainly the moebian 53rd armor set
But it is better for you to play damnation until you get comfortable with most mechanics and enough skill before trying Havoc

[wicked talon]

just quickplay damnation? best for getting drops too?

[lime idol]

If you’re confident, go for it

[wicked talon]

and what is auric level missions?

[lime idol]

Heresy & damnation missions with extra modifiers that make them a bit harder

[wicked talon]

So should i try damnation then go for auric? and then if im good enough high level havoc?

[lime idol]

yea

[sonic osprey]

Q) dumb question, how do you push poxblasters?

[signal gate]

Melee weapon, hold block, left click

For safety sake i recommend left clicking repeatedly while blocking and dodging backwards as well just in case

[sonic osprey]

ah yea

[stoic locust]

you can do the same thing with dogs, push as they make their jumping bark

[dry dome]

YOO I FINALLY GOT PRETERNATURAL DODGE LESGOOOO

[pearl agate]

Hey can anyone help me grind Auric Storm Survivor?

Its so hard with randoms plus psyker squishy

[brave breach]

lol

psyker squishy

regens a million toguhness per second

either way, your channel is #vox-lfg-lexicanum

[gusty whale]

play ds4 zealot if you want an easy time

[restive tartan]

might be a sound stupid qn but do you guys recommend to buy a weapon and upgrade from there or wait for requisitorium to have the weapon available?

or any other suggestion? quite new to this game

[vocal nacelle]

no difference

if you are new , try every weapon

unless you want a particular weapon to upgrade

[restive tartan]

already aiming a particular weapon to upgrade since im about to hit lvl 30 and might as well going to go higher diff

[vocal nacelle]

at the current state you keep buying until you have the desired stat

[vocal nacelle]

then you just spam buy until the weapon have the correct dump stat

[keen oracle]

So what's the next difficulty step after Heresy difficulty?
Heresy Malestrom/Auric?
Damnation?
Low Tier Havocs?

[lime idol]

Logical jump is usually
Heresy -> damnation -> auric damnation (-> havoc21+)

[vocal nacelle]

heresy hi int shock troop

if you can do hi shock you can do damnation

then go try hi shock damnation if you want to try semi auric

[keen oracle]

Does it count if I go down 3 times?

[lime idol]

No, preferably not taking much damage in the first place

[keen oracle]

Need to grind heresy a bit more before I jump to damnation then, thanks guys

[restive tartan]

is there any recommended list or go for my playstyle?

[vocal nacelle]

whats your character?

[rotund pond]

cant really get a proper answer on the forums because they all say different thing but what is error 3013?

ive tried everything to solve it but nothing works

[vocal nacelle]

server error

[rotund pond]

fucking brilliant

whats the fix for that?

[vocal nacelle]

DNS/VPN

[restive tartan]

zealot

[rotund pond]

Yeah, fucking Norton messing up my shit again by turning on its stupid VPN

[restive tartan]

~~tho im grinding vet while at it just incase im bored with 1 class ~~

[vocal nacelle]

soo did you fix it?

[rotund pond]

yeah :)

[vocal nacelle]

zealot is pretty free just try everything

for melee

[restive tartan]

for curio, is it just gambling to get max roll?

[sonic timber]

Pretty much. Luck. I just keep checking Milk and the armory until what I want is there. I’ve gotten one 420 stamina and a 410 17%toughness. It’s been two months now lol.

[gritty sigil]

What’s the best lasgun?

Infantry or Recon

Or Heavy laspistol?

[graceful raptor]

for what purpose

[gritty sigil]

Best speed

[graceful raptor]

speed of what

[gritty sigil]

Speed of shot and stability of shoot

[graceful raptor]

recon shoots the fastest

[gritty sigil]

Thanks!

[graceful raptor]

all of them shoot pretty accurate with sight on, and bad without sight on

could test all of them yourself anyway

[gritty sigil]

What is everyone’s favorite gun to use in general?

[broken raft]

Bolter

[graceful raptor]

ripper gun i think

[zealous dome]

Zarona revolver
Bolt pistol

One of the recons

Laspistol mk2

[rigid wasp]

ZARONA ENJOYERS RISE UP

I love cleaving a poxwalker family and its future offspring to one-shot the flamer

[stoic locust]

No

We putting zarona enjoyers down

[median mica]

Is this the right chat to look for people to try and get some penance? Sorry for my spelling 😅

To team up?

[graceful raptor]

vox channels i think

[versed ice]

for the dartide many tries mod, how to tell auric from regular missions?

[vocal nacelle]

hazardous mission

i think flash is maelstorm

[sinful summit]

when you input it into the game, it will specify whether its auric level or not
it most likely will be if you grabbed a high intensity mission, and it absolutely will be if you grabbed a high intensity maelstrom

[jaunty junco]

what's the maximum amount of Wound bonus we can grab from curio? +2?

[keen flume]

Only 1+ wound

[jaunty junco]

thanks!

[potent imp]

I played this game since the closed beta
Quit a year ago because constant error 2001 five seconds after login
Reinstalled today and still error 2001
Can this game get an offline mode already?

[versed ice]

wait, rolling steel has an auric maelstorm version!?!?!

[sinful summit]

It doesn't, idk where you got rolling steel having a maelstrom version from my statement lol
It did like one time but it was a bugged instance and has since been fixed and won't show up again

[versed ice]

Im sure if a rolling steel auric maelstorm mission does exist, imagine how popular that would be

[sinful summit]

Non functional for most modifiers

And people would hate it if they did work too

[versed ice]

pretty sure you could cram in wave of mutants, bursters, and snipers given all 3 of those types already spawn on shock trooper gauntlet

[sinful summit]

It's the spawn logic required for those

They don't function in rolling steel the way they do in a normal mission

[shadow skiff]

GL dodging a train of muties and dogs on the train.

[keen flume]

Specialist bosses, fog modifiers in rolling steel

[shadow skiff]

Everyone gets flung off the train asap.

[pseudo barn]

What is the max state roll for a health curio and toughness curio?

[graceful raptor]

21 and 17

or 16 i dont remember

[solemn gazelle]

Can I post gameslantern builds here?

[fickle ether]

Yes

Cheers.@fickle ether

[gusty zodiac]

is anyone able to help me form a private match to do the just a flesh wound penance for zealot at some point please?

[kind fiber]

For curios Im making a money maker class but im curious, does 20% chance of Curio instead of new weapon better money wise or should i get the new gun and sell it and make higher profits?

[deep lion]

Would anyone be willing to give me a hand to get the skull on magistrati oubliette sometime? I can't get randoms to push the buttons for the cells? On PS5

[tulip gate]

How do I find a good havoc team, other than team finder

[dry dome]

Hey can someone please explain the differences between enemy types, like how they are shown in the perk menu, idk which are which

[dry dome]

Much appreciated!

[ionic moth]

If you're reaaally wanting to farm curios, yeah weapons are much much easier to roll and plentiful to find than curios

[signal gate]

You farm curios with melk coins, not with the curio perk

[graceful raptor]

^

[signal gate]

The perk on curios is not worth it, it is not a straight increase it’s % of the base curio chance

[past rune]

does the havoc reward cache penance only track if you get a havoc 40 cache?

[red ginkgo]

No, you can get it to track with doing havoc 1 missions and anywhere in between as well

[stray juniper]

133027318687zkee

[gritty sigil]

Are “Mystery Acquisitions” worth buying?

[vocal nacelle]

Only if you have a lot of melk buck and want to find a curio

Like 21 health or 17 toughness

[gritty sigil]

Do the names of Curios matter, or are the names pointless?

[vocal nacelle]

No effect

Random gibberish

[gritty sigil]

VERY good to know

Thanks

[cedar dagger]

Would have been nice for them to actually mean something. Would be easier to tell by name what stats would be on it.

[vernal plaza]

Theres a mod for that

thats like an entirely another thing

[cedar dagger]

Yeah I'm a dumb ass

Lol

Was talking about infinite smite in ogryn chat earlier.

Using scriers

[vernal plaza]

Just name it with whatever perks on it

[cedar dagger]

What I meant about the naming was it would be nice if the game actually has a mark type naming scheme built in . That way when you get a curio at the end of a match, just seeing the name tells you what type of curio it is. Wounds/Stam ECT.

[vernal plaza]

quality please understand
I just do my due diligence to make it easier for myself

[short gazelle]

Is it better to go weak spot damage or crit damage

[vocal nacelle]

Neither, go for armor type

[red ginkgo]

Flak, maniac

[vocal nacelle]

25% > 10% of whatever you pick

[short gazelle]

I'm running the hand cannon vet build

[vocal nacelle]

Then go maniac /Carapace

Or flak

[zealous dome]

Fatshark math makes it so those two perks are pretty underwhelming

[short gazelle]

Lame

I'm guessing the only way to really math things is abstract datamining from menus/given values?

[vocal nacelle]

Well you can try on psykanium

[short gazelle]

Dumb quesiton, but do the devs have any plans on making bots that aren't complete NPC

[vocal nacelle]

And see how the perk makes a difference

[short gazelle]

Can you freely swap/edit things there or do you have to go in and out every time you want to change something?

[vocal nacelle]

Get 2 weapon with different perk and swap it on psykanium

[short gazelle]

so, that's a no.

[vocal nacelle]

With mods you can

I think

[gritty sigil]

Does your gunfire go through allies or do they block most of the shot? I know it does to a degree at least, but what are the actual parameters of shooting through allies?

[zealous dome]

All shots go through your teammates

Shots being blocked has been patched a while ago

[gritty sigil]

Awesome! I wasn’t sure. Kept getting yelled at by the game to stop shooting allies

[zealous dome]

Back then your weapon needed 2.x+ cleave to shoot through

[keen flume]

There is really no friendly fire in this game so dont worry

[gritty sigil]

Damn.. that must’ve been crippling back then

[zealous dome]

There was a lot of complaints about Ogryns blocking shots

😭

[gritty sigil]

I imagine so

[keen oracle]

No direct friendly fire...

[keen flume]

Dont be mean to the big guy, he doing his best

[gritty sigil]

I can’t decide between a Recon Mk VIc, MkXII or Mk XIV. Any help? I have a Mk VIc, but can only change the Mark to the other two. So, if I change it, I’d have to wait 5 more mastery levels to change it back, so I can’t really “test” the other two. Any thoughts?

[zealous dome]

II is the Vic
VIIa is the XIV
VId is the XII

[gritty sigil]

Thanks! Time to get my glasses

Great data. Screenshotted

[gritty sigil]

What distance does “Close Range” count as? Point blank? 5 meters?

[late valley]

12.5 meters I think it is now

[gritty sigil]

Great! Thanks

[quartz oyster]

Anyone able to help out with frenzied killer?

[graceful raptor]

yes
frag bomb

[viscid oar]

Anyone willing to help with Gone Bowling??

[quartz oyster]

I will be able to help out later tonight!
I need help with frenzied killer, I can agro horde, you bull rush, then I try to kill them once you get Gone Bowling. It’ll be a help both of us!

[viscid oar]

brb gonna cry

[keen flume]

[viscid oar]

down for that, message me when you're free

[quartz oyster]

I’ll be on for a bit, friend code: 1480376179

I recommend auric runs for gone bowling!

[vocal nacelle]

when buying weapon just need to check the correct dump stat distribution

example you want defence stat as the lowest stat because it doesnt change much even if its high

gonna looked like this

[dire coral]

Hmm, I can't post pictures on here either. What about the number on the top right of the weapon?

that doesn't matter?

[vocal nacelle]

doesnt matter, you can increase the rating if you keep upgrading it

[dire coral]

so a 250 can go up to say - 500?

[vocal nacelle]

yes

[dire coral]

ohhh

[vocal nacelle]

open the mastery tab and consume the weapon point

[dire coral]

okay. so look for 80x4 and 60x1

[vocal nacelle]

its very easy to get it now

[dire coral]

what does that mean consume the weapon point?

like, spend the mastery points? It is there so you can apply the blessings at higher levels right?

[vocal nacelle]

yes

it also affect how high you can upgrade the weapon stat

[dire coral]

i see i see

[vocal nacelle]

most weapon "dump" stat is mobility/defence

for ogryn there's collateral

[dire coral]

right, and the games lantern site i can also look up each one individually?

[vocal nacelle]

wdym?

[vocal nacelle]

i would suggest the class chat pin it got better information there

because games lantern build is sketchy sometimes

[dire coral]

i see, well thanks for the help!

[vocal nacelle]

what class are you playing?

[dry dome]

Is there a relic guide somewhere for all maps, just trying to eyeball it on maps I’m new to makes me wanna commit heresy

[dire coral]

veteran!

i see the veteran class chat

[vocal nacelle]

check the pin

[weak sundial]

Not sure if this is the right place to ask. I'm new to this Discord. Aside from the LFG channel, which seems mostly Auric groups, is there a proper place to try to find a group for Havoc missions? I'm really wanting to get the cosmetics, but in order to do so, I need to run someone else's Havoc missions and I rarely see any in the in-game group finder

[brave breach]

Party finder and #vox-lfg-lexicanum is your best bet, try right after havoc resets

[crimson plover]

Hello what exactly are Marks?
I'm looking at Mark VI and IX for the heavy sword and I really can't tell the difference

[keen oracle]

Different attack patterns and sometimes different damage

MKIX heavy is nice because you can chain endless horizontal heavy attacks into the horde

[crimson plover]

ooh I just looked at the attack patterns separately

thank you!

sorry if that was a dumb question lmao, I have like 3.5 hours or so at this point

[keen flume]

Marks are pretty much variants of the weapons

As they explained marks have different movesets and sometimes damage and fire rate difference

[crimson plover]

Gotcha thanks!

also since I'm here, what does the heavy sword special attack even do?
"Backslash combo-starter, setting up the enemy for a killing blow"
does that mean the next attack automatically kills or does it mean something else?

[little coyote]

iirc the attack after is an overhead which does more weakspot damage

[keen flume]

I dont partially use it much but from what I remember and if i am right it does attack that deals stagger to enemies and deals more damage on the weakspot

[little coyote]

but it's been a while I've played with a heavy sword so could just remember it wrong

[smoky ember]

loop heavy special for single target against carapace

also, special will stagger a rager

on a weakspot hit

[crimson plover]

gotcha

[gritty sigil]

What Zealot one handed melee weapon is most like the Psykers Blaze Force Sword? LOVE that sword, but Im not sure which is most similar for the Zealot

[gloomy acorn]

relic sword is 2 handed but closest to it. i guess for one handed similar to blaze force playstyle maybe heavy sword or devils claw but theres not really a 1h much like blaze force tbh

[gritty sigil]

Thats good info to go off of. Thanks

[vocal nacelle]

blaze force sword or force greatsword?

[gritty sigil]

The blaze force one handed sword

[vocal nacelle]

psyker and zealot 2h its almost the same

well one shoot magical slash

[gloomy acorn]

try relic i suggest. its 2 handed but can lay a lot of heretics down

[gritty sigil]

Will definitely try it

[gloomy acorn]

very fun to use

[gritty sigil]

I appreciate the advice

[gloomy acorn]

no prob. if u ever struggling just go to dueling sword for free wins

[gritty sigil]

Does dueling sword have any crowd capability?

[vocal nacelle]

on zealot its decent

[gloomy acorn]

i have a question also, can anyone explain this to me??i didnt know this was possible

[vocal nacelle]

bug , a good one

there's a rarer 62

[void forge]

rounding error pretty much

[gloomy acorn]

due to its high attack speed and crit rate yes but not if youre looking for big cleave thats the relics domain now or eviscerator maybe

[gloomy acorn]

crazy ha so its real

only for bg or can roll on anything

[void forge]

as "real" as 1% is sure

can happen for anything

[gloomy acorn]

ik lol im really not as hype as i sound just had no idea this was a thing

thx tho

anyone know a good place to complete this

[little coyote]

any high intensity damnation map

and a flamer

[gloomy acorn]

i was trying that last night with the flamer too i think its a skill issue actually i kept getting smoked by gunners 🤣

gonna try again, thx

[little coyote]

Using two nades at once might help as well

for a larger area of effect

[gloomy acorn]

actually that was a more important question i had u just answered for me haha i couldnt make my mind up cuz takes a few seconds to throw the grenade then also gotta hope team mates dont kill them\

[vocal nacelle]

i would throw all nades and just swing with relic blade

[little coyote]

Relic blade might be a good pick too actually, wasn't around when I did that

[gloomy acorn]

was doing that at first but hes right about flamer i believe its way easier and faster

[vocal nacelle]

got mine using evis

and relic blade more bonkers than evis

[gloomy acorn]

bonnkers is an understatement haha guess its one of the penances that ill just get when the moments right

cant force it i swear last night 2 games i loaded into there were other zelly doing same thing even with flamers

guy wrote it in chat in the beginning and i just backed out lol

last question what would u change?

[little coyote]

Pretty sure there are better options in place of Overload

[gloomy acorn]

have that one also

was thinking that would be good for this penance like he mentioned relic

[dapper shard]

Dev Strike is… not good/redundant. Overload doesn’t do anything relevant. Try Cranial Grounding, or Heatsink

[vocal nacelle]

cranial + rampage

[gloomy acorn]

ok i heard* heat sink was good should i use the one with higher heat managemnt though

[vocal nacelle]

or cranial + wrath

[gloomy acorn]

i love rampage might mix that with cranial or heat sink

cleave isnt actually important enough to install blessings for is it?

[vocal nacelle]

its important on havoc

[gloomy acorn]

in general its just the strength of your attacks hitting multiple enemies right

[dapper shard]

Wrath is overkill for standard difficulty due to sufficient base cleave power of relic blades, but it's incredibly good for modifiers which feature the Moebian 21st hordes (so notaby Havoc)

[dapper shard]

it determines how many targets you can cleave/hit before your attack stops

[gloomy acorn]

is there somewhere we can get a breakdown of all of the stuff like cleave rending etc

a fan made guide or something

and brittlenes

[brave breach]

Expanded description mod

Or smth like that

[hushed chasm]

squeak (this is beside the point but rat loves your pfp)

[smoky ember]

depends on the weapon

but for most weapons, no

the exceptions are chainsword, mk3 eviscerator

maybe a few others but i can’t think off the top of my head

and high havocs make cleave blessings almost mandatory for horde clear

especially against moebian 21st

[dry dome]

Is there a relic guide somewhere for all maps, having to eyeball it on maps I’ve never been on makes me want to commit heresy

[smoky ember]

just look up martyr skull on x map

there’s youtube videos for each

[smoky ember]

[marsh elbow]

Can 3 souls help me with Just A Flesh Wound?

[gritty sigil]

I need help designing a psyker build. A melee build using Blaze Force Sword (1 handed one)), but one that regens Toughness as fast and as constantly as possible. I have such a hard time surviving, but can carve through basically everything. Hell, just a “hard to kill” melee psyker build.

[fickle ether]

Sounds like a question better for the Psyker class chat https://discord.com/channels/727074276724965407/1046914150363844779

[gritty sigil]

Good point. Thanks

[lime idol]

Depends on if u think 11.7 cleave is enough

[signal gate]

And pox gas modifier, imo even worth it on auric damns with pox gas

[dapper shard]

Good point, gas also makes enemies' mass higher, I keep forgetting about that

[rigid wasp]

Anyone got some build tips for completing the ‘just a flesh wound’ penance? I know I need speed but I’m not sure how to get it.

[fickle ether]

Any build/ map you can do it on. But for a easier time make sure your only running a max of 2 wounds (I.E base amount) Bring a knife and if you aren't already be running the Until Death talent. Health curios can make it easier but aren't needed. Best way to do this is doing the twins and using the bell skip to just skip all the way to the final fight in that mission. If your not doing twins just run past everything using the knife whenever you can if a boss spawns and it isn't a beast of Nurgle you kill it.

When you wind up a knife heavy attack it gives a speed boast intill it swings.

[rigid wasp]

Bell skip? Dont know what that is. I’ve beat the twins once or twice on malice though.

[fickle ether]

There's a bell on the left side at the start of the mission let me see if i can get a video of it so it makes more sense.

Might need to be in the lobby of someone who already unlocked it but I'm sure if that's the case anymore for the norm skip

You'll need two people in your party for the skip to work but to do the penance you already need to be in a private game so min of 2 anyways. You shot/or hit the bell on the left everyone on the team must do that and it skips you to the very end. You'll want a fire barrel or flamer whatever can lower your hp before you take the elevator down to the fight. If your unable to do so leave the last twin alive for a bit so you can spend 75% of the match under 1 wound. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5w19qAFmfI

Now if yall don't mind forget that YT channel exist I don't post on there anymore

[rigid wasp]

Cheers lads, appreciate the help

[mortal moth]

I encountered an unusual bug. A weapon i have is displaying 100% for every stat, however each one is labeled "n/a".
Why did this happen, will it affect gameplay, and how can i fix it?

[smoky ember]

who knows, no, and either swap to and from character or restart your game

it just happens every now and again

[mortal moth]

ok thanks

[gritty sigil]

I have Lacerate IV on my combat knife, but can’t decide if I should take Mercy Killer or Flesh Tearer. Any suggestions. And before you ask, no, I do NOT dodge often, I just forget to and can’t seem to make myself remember.

[dapper shard]

I don’t think it’s optimal in any way, but you can take Flesh Tearer if you really want to

Better yet, avoid specking into bleed entirely and instead go Uncanny Strike + any on-successful-dodge blessing, or Flesh Tearer

[gritty sigil]

Thanks. I’ll try that

[restive tartan]

If i am to complete others havoc assignment , will it record to mine?

[late valley]

At the end of the week yes

[fickle ether]

Yes if the highest you played that week is with someone else hosting it will go up with the weekly reset. It only goes up right away if your the one to host the havoc mission.

[signal gate]

Bleed caps at 16, if you want bleed as a zealot, go flesh tearer uncanny

For veterans, to mercy killer uncanny strike and grab serrated blade talent, you aren’t going to be focused on bleed damage (which is good actually)

For psyker you’ll want uncanny+ precog or riposte, psyker doesn’t synergize with bleed in any respect
