[craggy minnow]

uh vet or ogryn

[full scroll]

oh that makes sense mb

[craggy minnow]

i play all the classes and sometimes my brain just switches randomly

and honestly the bleed talents are usually pretty good for most weapons

[full scroll]

I majority play zealot bc my monkey brain dislikes the movement speed decrease switching to another class LMAO

[craggy minnow]

its basically impossible to tell without powerDI but those bleed on melee talents do a lot of work on ogryns and monsties

[full scroll]

love bleed on zealot ofc, just trying to workshop better teamwork ideas for mortis

auric mortis has been exceptionally cruel this patch LMAO

[craggy minnow]

reaching over for bleed is basically the only non-explicit support i take

[cloud adder]

blaze?

[craggy minnow]

ill take group CDR or vets box enhancer ofc

[full scroll]

does revive speed now affecting all assists makes it worth to run in mortis?

[craggy minnow]

theres basically no reason for vet to not take box enhancer now

its arguably BIS just because theres not a lot of competition

its pretty good now

[full scroll]

oh thank god

[stoic locust]

Serrated gives me like 20k bleed damage I NEED it

[full scroll]

was roughly 0/3 on all my new patch ideas, happy at least one was a good idea LMAO

[craggy minnow]

curios now are like res speed sprint eff gunner resist bonus toughness pick 3

probably dont run sprint eff for mortis lol

[full scroll]

i run gunner resist, revive speed, and have been dabbling with block efficiency bc 8 plague ogryns at the same time wave 3 has chemically altered my nervous system

[craggy minnow]

just dodge 🧠

use your dueling sword to parry them somehow

[full scroll]

but parry makes a cool noise

you wouldnt ask me to deprive myself of cool noises would u??

[full scroll]

oh mb-- but thats actually why i was dabbling w the block efficiency

[craggy minnow]

i dont block a lot so i sometimes run stam regen to top off faster between uses

[full scroll]

block bonuses/triggers affect parrys, no?

[craggy minnow]

i think so?

you can save a ton of stamina doing perfect parries too

if you parry within .2 seconds of the attack it costs like 70% less stam or something

[full scroll]

honestly my stamina depletion with parrying isn't really an issue, but some attacks come faster than the parry animation can reapply and there's not always a lot of dodge real estate in mortis swarms so I gotta mix in the blocks every now n then which DO drain p harshly

maybe I just gotta up my timing game, tho

[craggy minnow]

ah yeah i'll often dodge out of the attack after it connects instead

[full scroll]

heartbreaking to find out most mechanic problems i come across are actually just personal skill issues but cool to know it's fixable I guess 😭

[craggy minnow]

fatshark games have always kinda been like that
wackjobs running cataclysm solo in vt2

[gray pendant]

can you just change whatever perk and blessing you want now or is it still locked to 2? i dont really notice that being a thing still

[patent jasper]

you can change all perks and blessings at any time, the 2 max limit has been gone for quite a while now thankfully

[gray pendant]

nice thanks

[boreal jungle]

is there any way to focus drops for specific weapons?

[polar forum]

short of gambling at brunts armory? no

[undone yew]

whats the best way to get ordo dockets i ran out after not getting the stats i needed on a weapon 😭

[vocal nacelle]

auric

maelstorm

[undone yew]

thanks

[polar forum]

spam train mission at damnation

[undone yew]

is that mission always there?

[polar forum]

not always so just play it when you can

[undone yew]

alr thanks

[polar forum]

it's there frequently enough though

[warped basin]

I'm too stupid to understand on my own why this (randomly cobbled together) build doesn't feel as useful as it should be - even though it's fun to play - and what to fix, can someone explain
curios are toughness + cooldown + stamina + gunner res, knife isn't 500 yet as I've been learning it and leveling it

[sinful summit]

You'll find faster class specific help in the class channels, but besides that
It looks like youre leaning into the melee side quite hard, and the two melee talents in the center section on the right would greatly help with that

[vocal nacelle]

weapon spec shotty is a bit whacky

[warped basin]

the three times I've asked about class-specific things in those channels, I've gotten straight up ignored so

thanks for the tips

yea I was thinking of replacing the shotgun because of reload speed eating up quite a bit of the wep spec buff time after swapping

[sinful summit]

Thats what always prepared is for

Though that benefits low capacity weapons more, due to it rounding up

Like the ever faithful double barrel loading one of its 2 shots after 1 kill

[inland lichen]

Do plasma gunners have a maximum range or can they shoot you from across the map like snipers, because our team dropped like flies the moment a group of like 4 showed up across one of the massive rooms in metalfab

[vocal nacelle]

14 meter detection

35 meter above have damage falloff but they can still shoot you

[void forge]

35m is a pretty far distance in this game though

[fierce sandal]

Especially when they can still line up some ridiculous angles as well as snipers

[vocal nacelle]

whole psykanium

[gray pendant]

is the 1 million kills title based on a penance? if so what category is it in? im curious how far i am with it

[keen flume]

Tactical category

[gray pendant]

nice thanks

[feral karma]

So i've varrified game files twice reset my computer and steam says my cloud is synced

but whenever i try and launch darktide via deskstop or through steam this message pops up

whats goin on

[stoic locust]

Idk just launch it character data is serverside

[feral karma]

Im launching now ilyk

[frosty rover]

Hey yall, just jumping in sfter a hiatus. Do we still spam buy greys to get 380 max stats before upgrading?

[vocal nacelle]

nope

buy grey with the correct dump stat and upgrade the stat till max

[frosty rover]

what do you mean by dump stat? like 90% damage ect?

80%*

[vocal nacelle]

new system looked like this now

you can upgrade the stat to max

left one is current value the right value is the max you can get

[frosty rover]

So for example, i would ideally get a grey with good finesse/ damage/ defense and then upgrade. How do you get one with good stats to begin with if not spam buying at brunts

[shadow skiff]

Get lucky with random drops.

[vocal nacelle]

still spam buy but not that much

old system you need to burn 1-2 million, new one just burn 250K - 1 million

[frosty rover]

My max seems to cap at 330

[vocal nacelle]

upgrade at hadron

below consecrate button

after you click all the mastery blessing first

[frosty rover]

Ahh so you have to max the mastery out first?

[vocal nacelle]

yes

[frosty rover]

Thanks yall

[modest marten]

80-80-80-80-60 is max on an item yes?
what is this then?

this supposed to be like this or is this a bug

[pastel forge]

Rounding

[modest marten]

i suppose that makes sense yeah

i havent thought about that. thank you very much

[mint sapphire]

is the 60 always on a specific stat or random, when you get a max roll item?

[pastel forge]

Its all random

[mint sapphire]

ah so you buy a ton of grays trying to get the 80 80 80 80 60, then you do the blessings later

[modest marten]

you can also get 76 on all 5 stats sometimes

[modest marten]

i do it like this yeah

but you can also take a look at the stuff milkman has to offer

maybe theres something good for ya

[mint sapphire]

and when you do these buying parts, do you wait til level 30 to buy grays or at any time

[pastel forge]

Any as long as you have the materials to upgrade

[mint sapphire]

ah nice, ty ty .

[void forge]

Buying greys at lower levels will mean a lower base power, but it is not a big difference in material cost to empower it to the same point

[strange thunder]

apparently it's also worse, since you're less likely to get perfect 80/60 spreads at a lower level

[void forge]

Idk if that's true, I think it might just be confirmation bias

[outer sierra]

Are the chain weapons any good after the patch here?

[void forge]

Always have been

[polar forum]

ehhhh wouldn't say that lol

but yeah chaxe is pretty good now

chord still falls into the "aight" territory for me

[wheat night]

This is a rounding error and means one of you 80s is actually a 79.xx

[modest marten]

yeah we allready came to that conlcusion but i appreciate the feedback nontheless

thx

[lethal slate]

anyone know how the mortis trials voice stories unlock? I can't seem to get one of the two new ones for the penance, could've sworn you just needed to start a match from lobby to unlock them.

[wheat night]

Finish a mortis trial game. The voice lines that you get are random I think

[fierce sandal]

you know when captains do like, a flexing animation and their shield kinda pushes everyone back? how much damage does that deal?

Better question: under what circumstances does the above one shot you from full health/toughness lol

[void forge]

ah so the shield push one shot is still not patched huh

usually happens if you are in the air

just try to dodge it if you can

here is a thread showing FS acknowledged the bug many months ago https://forums.fatsharkgames.com/t/shielded-captain-burst-move-one-hit-kill-at-full-hp/108318

[smoky ember]

one shot in like all situations

ive never seen someone survive it

maybe a martyrdom zealot with bleed for the emperor can?

but all i know is that its enough to one shot a full health (non marty) zealot with majority of damage resist active

until death blocks it at least but

it sucks..

[cold tangle]

im a newer player that is trying to get into high tier gameplay. any tips??? should i start grinding havoc? no team for havoc so i really dont know where to take my path at this point. im only at about 150 hours.

[vocal nacelle]

What's your current difficulty

[cold tangle]

i can run damnnation and have had to solo a lot to carry people through. havent done auric yet.

[wheat night]

Tbh try aurics until you get confortable with.

Lower havocs are easier than that

[cold tangle]

gotcha

[wheat night]

And the first ranks of havocs are very progressive

Players in aurics are generally more able to hold than randoms in damnation. Just practice and if someone is salty because you drop or die often, ignore him

[cold tangle]

ty for the tips. i can hold in a damnnation because ive been trying to learn higher gameplay, changing keybinds, ect. hopefully wont down too often in auric lmfao.

[wheat night]

Just stick with the team

You'll be fine

[vocal nacelle]

try auric after that auric maelstorm

or you could try current event at auric

thats basically 50% havoc

without player debuff

[fierce sandal]

Getting mixed responses here. Are you saying that it's supposed to kill anyone hit by it or more like, "it's a rare bug, but when it happens...[your original reply here]"?

[keen flume]

Captain shields pop up do zero damage generally but they have a bug that been on for sometime still not fixed weirdly but rare that the captain pulses their shield and they will one shot players no matter what health they have and toughness

[smoky ember]

yah

[cloud adder]

Having the charges full wont do anything passivly?
Its not like activating the one handed power swords?

[vocal nacelle]

more damage per charge when you release the slash

[cloud adder]

thats the only bonus?

[pastel forge]

Well yes

It is a really big bonus though

[cloud adder]

yes! thanks

when having this perk.. cant you block Mauler and Crusher overheads anymore?
currently for me, full thoughness, no peril and every overhead sofar, insta knock out.., while blocking and facing towards them

[strange thunder]

psyker can never block overheads

[lime idol]

Overhead attacks are unblockable
Only very specific weapons can block them

[strange thunder]

only arbites and ogryn can with special weapons or talents

[lime idol]

U can parry with DC sword and duelling sword, as well as with shield weapons

[cloud adder]

so, it goes through block no matter what?
And it wont take away stamina/peril since it doesent block?

[lime idol]

It’ll most likely just down u

[strange thunder]

psyker can live with specific talents

but just barely

but it doesn't matter if you block or not

[cloud adder]

Ok, thanks! keeping it in mind to stay further

[lime idol]

Mauler overhead does like 300 smth damage

Crusher overhead does like 400+

Without gold toughness you’ll most likely just get downed (or killed, if havoc)

[zealous dome]

400? Yeah that's tankable

[void forge]

Overheads will still eat your stamina if you try to block them(assuming you survive the hit)

[cloud adder]

Yes, but since the perk uses Peril, shouldent it also cause the Peril then go full 100%?

[void forge]

Yes if you are using KD it will also put you at critical peril

[cloud adder]

KD?

[void forge]

Last I checked anyway

[cloud adder]

yes

[void forge]

Kinetic deflection

[cloud adder]

I use that perk and thats why I wonder why that is not happening

Peril stays the amount it was, befor eating the overhead

[void forge]

Huh

I will have to test this when I'm back from work

[gilded idol]

Hello I just got a weapon with 80 - 61 - 80 - 80 - 80 stats is that normal ?
I thought 80% was the max a stat could get and 20% were removed across all stats randomly (I can't send a screenshot it seems)

[void forge]

its a rounding thing

dont worry about it

just be happy you have a shiny weapon

[gilded idol]

I see I see, I'll definitely keep it then (especially since it's a stat I want at 60% anyway I think ?)

[modest marten]

is it possible to increase the chance tog et missing chapters in mortis trials or is it pure random?

[mint sapphire]

For an assault rifle style build, would zealot or veteran be better?

[modest marten]

Imho i would say Veteran since ive allways found zealot to be a more melee focused class but Vet is my least played (and liked) so take that with a grain of salt

[mint sapphire]

ah ty ty

[livid rain]

N e 1 know a good way to get cliffhanger?

[vocal nacelle]

trauma staff and venting shriek

[smoky ember]

vet

infantry autogun is pretty strong on vet

zealot has very few ranged buffs

[mint sapphire]

hell yeah ty for info @smoky ember

[smoky ember]

and vet has survivalist, meaning ammo regen

[mint sapphire]

would a shotgun build be better on zealot then, or still vet? ranged weapon is always vet?

[polar forum]

vet is the king of hybrid ranged-melee builds

[smoky ember]

ranged weapons in general will perform better on vet, as zealot is more melee focused

[polar forum]

and also shoot-heavy builds

[mint sapphire]

got it

[polar forum]

though vet is not a pure ranged class

[smoky ember]

shotguns can work on zealot, but they aren’t going to be primary weapons

[polar forum]

psyker is the only class that should really be played as a pure ranged class

[smoky ember]

and even then you have melee psyker

[polar forum]

yeh

[faint perch]

I recently started using a melee psyker. It was quite the learning curve, but a lot of fun

Especially mowing through hundreds of enemies while the characters talk about how psychotic my psyker is

[undone yew]

does doing damnation maelstrom count towards the progress to unlock auric

[oak dock]

I have a 380-item gray item. Does it matter what I do first when upgrading?

consecrate or empower?

[vocal nacelle]

Doesn't matter

[keen flume]

Bro just discovered a gold mine

[vocal nacelle]

verify the game

[sacred hollow]

I got to level 30 on my psyker last night. Kind of afraid to try and climb difficulty because I struggle with heresy and I don’t want to be a burden to the group

I just started working on different operatives

[keen flume]

Keep on experimenting and play on the difficulty you are the most comfortable until you feel more confident to jump into higher diffs

[sacred hollow]

Honestly I don’t feel comfortable on heresy because I’ve been yelled at a few times just for going down and I just feel like I’m bad at the game

[faint perch]

There’s (usually) still plenty of things to do to make characters stronger. Try different builds and gear. Get gear with perfect stats. Refine gear

[keen flume]

Funny enough heresy and damnation usually has plenty of toxic players

So it is no surprise it is still common to have them because they blame on their teammates more than themselves and find excuse

Just ignore them and let them cry

[sacred hollow]

I love the game. I just hate toxic players. I try everything I can to help and move with the team but still get yelled at

[keen flume]

But keep on trying other classes, get the feeling of how they play

[faint perch]

Do you use bubble shield?

[sacred hollow]

Yes

I usually put it up when I spot gunners or when we have to defend a point

[faint perch]

Weird. Usually people are more chill if you’re using bubble shield

[keen flume]

There are times that you are unable to save your teammates in time or they get overwhelmed

[keen flume]

It is heresy

Players will always be yelling no matter what

Because of course they still dont have the skill enough and awareness when overwhelming hordes

[sacred hollow]

I get overwhelmed by melee units and sometimes if you turn a corner and there’s just a giant group of mobs

[keen flume]

what units you get more screwed over?

[sacred hollow]

Ragers and gunners if I’m not paying attention

[faint perch]

Which weapons do you use?

[sacred hollow]

Mutants if they are charging but you can sidestep mutants

[keen flume]

As you play Psyker, you are very squishy and gunners can put you down very easily

[sacred hollow]

Inferno staff and greatsword

[keen flume]

If you face a wall and a mutie grabs you into it, he will just throw you and not slam, it is usually good way to escape some scenarios if theres massive hordes blocking

More of a 50/50

[sacred hollow]

It’s more ragers that get to me. I try to bubble as soon as I see gunners

[keen flume]

You also try to sprint slide gunners?

[sacred hollow]

What is sprint slide?

[keen flume]

Sliding while you sprinting

[sacred hollow]

Oh

I did not know you could do that

[keen flume]

You can avoid gunner shots if you sprint slide

[sacred hollow]

That’s really good to know

[keen flume]

It is one of the best ways of survival

When you see the red flash of the gunners, shooters try to sprint and slide

[sacred hollow]

Will do!

[keen flume]

It will take time to get used to but when you get the feeling you soon can spam it

[sacred hollow]

Ok I’ll give it a shot next time I play

[gray pendant]

hey can you still do the special assignment mission with the 2 bosses? if so where can i find that now

[faint perch]

It’s unfortunate not everyone is chill, but personally I’m very happy when a bubble psyker joins. The toughness regen and projectile blocking are incredible

[keen flume]

Mission board > Campaign playlist in the bottom right corner

[keen flume]

Small demonstration of how to sprint slide

[gray pendant]

are the tied rewards still a thing too?

[keen flume]

Feeling too rusty lately so dont mind the clip

[keen flume]

The penances still exist

[sacred hollow]

Thank you!!

[keen flume]

You can also dodge slide but you have to remind that you lose 2 effective dodges when performing

[eager basin]

Is Battle for Tertium the thing you go through from lv1-30?
I am bit taken by surprise by this prompt ngl
-# (got 4 lv30 chars and tons of penances on all of em, so idk if I should do this for funsies or smth)

[keen flume]

Campaign is fun if you want the chronic order of the story with brand new dialogue and cutscenes on end of each mission

[eager basin]

Suppose I can skip for now and do it on the DLC char

Lest those dont do the campaign..?

Considering theyre not rejects

[keen flume]

You can still do the campaign as Arbites but the story will still gonna tell in rejects perspective

[eager basin]

I know very little about stuff added the last few months (besides voicelines and lore)

[eager basin]

Huh, that's odd. But I suppose it'll do.

[keen flume]

Arbites does have a new unique prologue cutscene though

[eager basin]

ohh

cool

Thanks fam

[keen flume]

Peak prologue

[eager basin]

Ah god my skill tree set up gone

Its like playing a game after ages not knowing your funny lil char skill interactions

[wheat night]

All my skill trees and favorites got screwed because the steam cloud was fucked and I tried to boot the game last thursday when steam was down

[eager basin]

darn

[torn basin]

Is it a good or a bad idea to buy weapons with good stat spread while leveling to upgrade them later? Is upgrading them too costly? https://imgur.com/a/Nsu59j9

[strange thunder]

most good stat spreads are white ones from the shop at around 330, through brunt's armory

[torn basin]

I was told the only thing that matters is the 80/60/80/...? So this should be ideal to upgrade?

[strange thunder]

so it isn't too far off, but shovel isn't exactly the best ogryn weapon so unless you really like it I'd wait and try to get something at a higher level and just use it for leveling

but yes, the spread is best for shovel

[torn basin]

I´m not sure we are talking about the same thing tbh

[strange thunder]

but if you're low in funds you can wait a bit to farm for perfect spread ones

I thought you meant the shovel you linked so

if you can afford the resources then it's fine upgrading from scratch

[torn basin]

yes I meant the shovel I linked. this should turn out to be an ideal shovel when max upgraded, right? the question was about the upgrade costs

[strange thunder]

I can't judge if the upgrade costs are worth it because I don't know your resources

if you've just started playing a character I would not invest a ton in "perfect" but low leveled weapons, especially when it's an ogryn shovel

[stable dust]

My damnation meter isn't filling up even though I'm completing damnations. How do I unlock the higher difficulty?

I'm trust 30

It ia stuck halfway

[strange thunder]

if you lose missions you might lose progress

otherwise it should progress to auric

[willow fern]

I've been thinking about modding my game for funny shit, any mods y'all use that are "must have"?

[keen flume]

If you want to start small, you can look up the most downloaded mods through nexus

[strange thunder]

yeah that's usually the best way

[willow fern]

yknow, i didnt think of that

[keen flume]

Numeric UI
Full auto
Modular menu buttons
Markers Improved all in one
Scoreboard
Chat Block
Enchanced descriptions
These are just few of the mods named

[strange thunder]

numeric UI is prob the best to start with

and scoreboard ye

[keen flume]

You should get the ovenproof plugin with the patch, it has more content and more accurate

[smoky ember]

psych ward

numericUI

creature spawner

chatblock

uhmm

[fierce sandal]

healthbars...

[smoky ember]

very much preference

i use healthbars but a lot of people find it very cluttering

which it can be especially on high havoc

[spring slate]

Was solo play fixed

[fierce sandal]

I can see that, honestly, but...sadly it seems, to me at least, a better indicator of where the purple jerk(s) is than the actual enemy's purple glow lol. But I seem to be eternally stuck between 33-35 so I can't speak for 40

[fierce sandal]

there was an update since the main patch

if you go to the nexus page, the thumbnail will have an icon saying "update available" if you aren't up to date

[languid jewel]

Full auto is straight ip cheating

[stoic locust]

Full auto is useful for like 2 weapons

[keen flume]

https://tenor.com/view/ok-okay-dont-care-gif-21549166

So all mods are cheating smh

[mint sapphire]

If I play quickplay on a character and I land on a mission I haven't completed yet, if I beat it, do I get credit for completing it in the story mission section? or do I need to select it specifically and beat it from the start

[vocal nacelle]

this one is a bit weird from what i remember it doesnt count if you join midgame / progress but count if you join at the start

[mint sapphire]

@vocal nacelle ahhh that explains my confusion, ty!

[woeful otter]

In Vermintide, I could press tab to see what other people's loadouts were. Any way to do this in missions in darktide?

[vocal nacelle]

Use mods

Weapon only show on loading menu

[vernal plaza]

Ironically this happens bc they incorporate mods to the base game

[dawn hamlet]

I'm tryin to go for auric storm survivor, is there any sort of build thats largely BS proof or do i just need to lock in? was thinking of running blades fury martyrdom eviscerater bolter zealot, since its a solid generalist option and does good into bosses

[keen flume]

theres few ways: The most obvious is keep playing, earning skill and special awareness to know whats the current enemy priority to deal

You can go try to play the most easiest Auric Mael modifier combos like ones that only has about 2 or 3 modifiers on

[dawn hamlet]

i feel like i am around there

I just mean that i want a build setup that isnt reliant on my team being good/carrying me

because god knows randos cant be trusted

[clear plume]

rule #1

never trust teammates

[clear plume]

really any iteration of zealot that you are comfortable playing

zealot has the strongest Damage redution talent in the game, being until death (add holy rev onto it and it heals you)

[keen flume]

The worst enemies in the game is not the actual enemies we fight and in fact is our teammates

[dawn hamlet]

ill try a bit with eviscerator a bit then

its my new favorite i love how its like a thunder hammer that can actually kill non-boss enemies effectively

[novel gale]

when should i dodge, dodge-slide, block and push?

[clear plume]

slide ranged attack, dodge melee attacks, block/push when you are out of dodges to help stop chip damage

[wheat night]

Ogryn light spam build

You just spam light attacks and never die. If you get cornered just charge through the mob

[dawn hamlet]

yknow that is very true and i do like ogryn

but i think i wanna earn it instead of using that sort of method

[wheat night]

Considering your teamates will probably throw the game, i'd say it's earned

I did it on zealot with eviscerator a long while ago. With the new buffs to zealot and evis it should be easy

[ornate stag]

how does ammo box depletion work? is it based on how much ammo you take, or the number of times you take ammo from it?

[wheat night]

It can ressupply 4 times regardless of the quantity of ammo that was given

[ornate stag]

word, thanks

[elfin lake]

Can you see somewhere which character background options you selected at character creation? I want to change my char's name, and leave the rest the same.

[patent jasper]

Krall on the left side of the ship lets you change background and name for 50k dockets, if you only wanna change name, simply hit continue one the background section since it’ll be what you previously had

[dawn hamlet]

what bits of the tree did you use?

main ones i mean

[wheat night]

If I remember right it was a crit build with heavy evisc; charge (2x; regain toughness); and the left keystone

The one where you get stacks when things die near you

Martyrdom was trash then and right now it's overrated

Tbh player skill > build and itemisation

For curios I ran 2x 17% toughness, 1x 21% health. For subs on curios: toughness, cd reduction and whatever

I don't play zealot much now. I'm a psyker chad now

[dawn hamlet]

fair enough, appreciated

i can respect the crit but i find that martyrdom gives better performance into the daemonhost my teammate inevitably wakes up

i do use the crit for relic blade though, since i take it with da chalice

[elfin lake]

Oh, nice! Thanks!

[hazy trellis]

I'm new. Got to 30 (one other class at 19), did my first three malice missions, hoping to get more resources for weapon upgrades. At some point I got like 4000 diamantine at once.

It made me happy, but where was it from? One of the penances? I only did quick missions. Maybe an event mission? The last one was dark. Did the level have a super cache or something? Or some other reward? The usual diamantine after a malice mission seemed to have been about 100 or so.

[fickle ether]

Sounds like you got a event reward if your PC you can track your progress by holding tab and cycling the tabs with e not sure for console

[hazy trellis]

Oh. Got to try that. Thanks.

[keen meteor]

noobie here, am curious what the two % numbers of a weapon's stats mean. like "finesse [25/78]%" what does the 25 and 78 represent?

[vocal nacelle]

current / max potential

25%/78% mean you can upgrade the 25% to 78% later

[strange thunder]

it's also based on a base value, giving 25-78% extra on top of it

so a 0% stat isn't nothing

[keen meteor]

okay, am i likely to get a better knife? like im not sure how to "invest" in a weapon to get it up to that second number % but is it worth doing so if im, like, level 5?

[vocal nacelle]

dont bother if you arent at lvl 30

just try everything first

[strange thunder]

yeah you don't have the resources atm to fully optimize

easier to just switch to a better version if you get it as a reward

[keen meteor]

alright, and looking forward into the future, where am I likely to get a knife / staff / whatev that I'm going to want to upgrade and stick with?

[strange thunder]

brunt's armory let's you purchase grey ones

and not too expensive ones you get credits in order

[vocal nacelle]

When you are rich you can force buy the stat you want at brunts armoury

[strange thunder]

staves want 60% warp resistance generally

knife 60% mobility

[faint perch]

I just check the shop often and gradually pick up gear with 60 in the dump stat. Over time i ended up with most psyker weapons like that, including ones I haven’t tried yet. If you are a no lifer like me you can get ideal gear without buying a ton of worthless weapons

[strange thunder]

yeah I got a lot of mine passively through mission rewards, you can wait on maxing them and just favorite them so you don't sell them accidentally

[faint perch]

Agreed. In most cases it’s probably safe to have mobility as the dump stat for all weapons with mobility. Unless they are running a very specific build type

[strange thunder]

and defense for most that don't have a mobility stat

[faint perch]

Yeah. Solid advice. I found the psyker staffs to be a little harder to choose a dump stat for, but eventually went with warp resistance, like you recommended

[strange thunder]

yeah it's a good baseline

[woeful otter]

Help me out: ranged weapon marks. Any reason to not just pick the highest damage numbers?

[little coyote]

usually they also have poorer firerate

so preference mostly

or magazine size

or burst fire

[ancient frigate]

Why have they made this game so unplayable oh I can't see anything wow so much fun oh wait I'd rather get cancer

[little coyote]

Did you by any chance choose a lights out modifier map

[strange thunder]

skill issue

[keen meteor]

which classes can use bolters? im not seeing any for my psyker

[strange thunder]

vet, zealot, arby

psyker only gets bolt pistol

[keen meteor]

what is wrong with the name "Eviscer-8r" for my dog? It has more than 3 letters, and uses alphanumerical characters, one hyphen, and has one digit, but the thing is rejecting it

[livid rain]

Anyone wanna help me with the Cliffhanger Penance?

[civic root]

error code 2014... me and my buddy were doing the campaign missions and across three of them randoms have joined bc we have it set to open... y not right? all three times ive been booted out of said match and we were the ones who started it from the beginning. has this happened to anyone else or do i just have to verify my game files

[void forge]

That error has to do with connectivity issues

[civic root]

gotcha

[keen meteor]

am new to this, why are some of my weapons not showing up in hadron's sacrifice place?

[vocal nacelle]

Equipped weapon

[keen meteor]

how do I add blessings to my, uh, blessing collection?

[grave moon]

You can do it by leveling up the mastery on that weapon

[keen meteor]

OH

i thought those were, like, automatic

ok ok

[grave moon]

I'm also confused on one thing though. Most videos are out of date due to recent update. Is max level still 550 or is 500 the cap now? I am unsure because there is no base item level now

[sinful summit]

500

[grave moon]

Oh I figured thanks

[sinful summit]

and that is just in relation to the base stats, the blessings/perks dont change that

at 500 thats when its been upgraded to those max stat potentials a weapon displays

[grave moon]

Ok yeah because before the perks and blessings added on to it. Wasn't sure if you had to grind higher difficulty now or something

[dense tulip]

one of the censors probably detecting something. There are some weird name restrictions in there

[wooden rain]

Is there a mod to let you see party finder loadout + build? I’m trying to play havoc in PF but keep getting griefed by useless stealth vets (shout out to bro with level 1 blessings) and martyrdom chorus zealot (???)

[keen flume]

Yes

[wooden rain]

is it "inspect from party finder?"

[keen flume]

Pretty sure it is that one yes

Though looks like is bugged atm, i dont use the mod so i cant confirm it

[keen meteor]

what is the maximum toughness a curio can give?

like, on a base blessing (not counting perks)

[patent jasper]

17%

[modest marten]

is it possible to increase the chance tog et missing chapters in mortis trials or is it pure random?

[shadow skiff]

Pure luck based mission.

[frozen aurora]

Ik modding bad but I'm a pretty blind guy, legal levels - are there any mods that provide more accessibility settings? I'm struggling

[vocal nacelle]

All mods are allowed unless it affect other player or makes you do inhuman response

Which accessibility you want there's alot

[frozen aurora]

Oh no way! I thought the publishers made it an offence. Is there a page I can browse? Just looking for something like enemy outlines or higher contrast on enemies. Eyesight only declined recently so not super versed in visual accessibility mods. I appreciate it

[vocal nacelle]

https://www.nexusmods.com/games/warhammer40kdarktide/mods any mod in this site are allowed

[frozen aurora]

Thank you! I really thought it was bannable

[vocal nacelle]

there's a few step required to activate the mods https://discord.com/channels/1048312349867646996/1048312484227973120

[frozen aurora]

This channel is showing as unknown. I assume it's to do with my server level?

[little coyote]

Different server

[coral relic]

Does impact / stagger scale with damage?

[vocal nacelle]

no

[inland lichen]

How often do commodore's vestures rotate? Do old ones come back?

[vocal nacelle]

per 2 week, yes

[inland lichen]

The current ones are ugly as sin. Give me more military-esque ones

[eager basin]

What are these yellow symbols right-side of the portraits?

[hazy basalt]

The game keep resetting my builds when I swap builds. All talent trees reset as well as changing my weapons that were on the build. It's happening on all my characters. Anyone else seeing this issue?

[strange thunder]

yeah there's a selection bug atm, you have to make changes while you have the loadout selected

but it shouldn't blank everything?

[fathom glade]

question: Its been a while since I played, what are these bars under my stamina?

[cedar vector]

hi, i started the game yesterday, i think they are doges

[fathom glade]

are they?

oh shit they are

weeeird

[patent jasper]

yea they're the amount of effective dodges you have

[clear plume]

iirc its grouped teammates

team 1 is those 2 and the other 2 are ungrouped

[eager basin]

Ah, makes sense
Odd how I didnt notice it during our other missions

[split obsidian]

Tbf, Inhuman response is vague enough that skitarius and emperor's guidence are allowed.

I don't really know what mods would need to enable to get banned for, these days.

[polar forum]

they banned the mod that spews out in chat damage done by each person

so stuff like that

[vocal nacelle]

maybe inhumane response

[keen meteor]

is there like any way to free yourself from a trapper net other than having someone else do it?

[polar forum]

nope

you need a bot or player to free you

[faint perch]

Unfortunately. I had a match the other day where i got hit by a trapper hidden around a corner, but my sister killed it, then she got hit by a second trapper hiding further around the corner, then the bots both died trying to rescue us. It was just rapid fire fail

[inland lichen]

What day of the week do commodore cosmetics change?

[dense tulip]

usually it's every other Thursday, sometimes they change it to align with the update and whatnot

[full socket]

hey everyone; does anyone have a nice and easy to understand guide on how to get a mod going? it's the accuracy mod that i want to enable for this one penance.

thank you for any response,

N e 1 wanna do Carnac Twins Bell Puzle?

[clear plume]

do you need help beating hard mode?

[rough plume]

How does reapers/gunners stopping firing work? Seems like they sometimes have jams that they have to fix, but not sure if scab gunners have an overheat or its only dreg gunners stop shooting without doing something else.

[mystic hinge]

Am I supposed to sell the profane weapons with crappy stats I don't need or is there another use for them ?

[strange thunder]

you can sacrifice them for weapon mastery

tho you gotta make em green first

[subtle knot]

if i get a kill with smite while using empower psionics do i hv to stop using smite and use it again to get the EP benefits or does it auto activate

[merry summit]

I need a team for maelstroms or something at some point cause everyone keeps dying to the silliest things and I can't get the title

[keen meteor]

im getting objectives for grimoires, what are they and where can i find them?

[strange thunder]

usually in corners, hidden away a bit

they're a risk/reward collectible, you get xp and credits if you carry them to the end, but they corrupt the team's health and you can't drop them without destroying them

[keen meteor]

ah so thats the corruption resistance (grimoire) thingy
the whole team though?

[strange thunder]

yeah they're honestly a bit of a noobtrap, because it's really only on the lower difficulties that people bother with them and inexperienced players have trouble dealing with up to half of your health corrupted for a fairly minor reward

and you really need both to get the full value

they do glow in the dark so they're easier to spot than scriptures

most don't bother with them after they've collected the 100 needed for the penance

and it's frowned upon when ppl take them in auric, it's just shooting the whole team in the foot basically

[keen meteor]

i feel dumb, what are scriptures

[strange thunder]

they're the other type of map collectibles that you can see in some missions

up to 3 of them in a mission, but they aren't a hindrance in any way and can also be found in ammo chests

so lower rewards

the collect 16 grimoires and scriptures weekly melk quest is also huge bait, just reroll it when you get it

[keen meteor]

is there a minimum difficulty for when grimoires and scriptures appear?

[strange thunder]

because it's stupidly hard to complete

[keen meteor]

wait you can reroll melk quests>

[strange thunder]

yes, first is free and subsequent ones cost a bit of money

there's no minimum difficulty, you can see if a mission has secondary objectives on the map screen

but if you only do quickplay then it's up to chance

I always reroll collecting ones or completing x missions without deaths

because you don't really have that much agency over those

better with lesser and more consistent rewards to also get the 1k bonus of completing all of them

[keen meteor]

Okay, for rerolling, is the cost going up? Like 0 for the first, 1k for the second, 2k for the third, etc?

[autumn crescent]

Need a good build for veterans using laspistol (any) + some good melee. I want to use this in Auric Maelstrom and Havocs

[grave moon]

Yes

[autumn crescent]

Pls ping me when you recommend. Thanks.

[strange thunder]

yes

oh I missed above

[mossy yarrow]

hello, id like to know if its possible to access available cosmetics from weeks ago in comodoro.

[cloud adder]

Question regarding the Imperial Edition, those Loyalist Weapon Skin Patterns* (*Unlock via in-game progression)

1. What in-game progression unlocks them
2. They are not the Mortis Operative ones, are they?

[dapper shard]

They are Mortis Operative skins yes, and you don’t need anything but the Imperial Edition upgrade to get them.

The only „progression” that’s tied to unlocking them is probably the one revolving around unlocking certain weapon types at certain class levels

Say Zealot unlocking the Thunder hammer for use at rank/level <whatever it is>

[cloud adder]

Ah, Name and different look from what is promoted gave me the impression they might be something else!
Thanks

[modest marten]

i noticed this a few times now but i noticed this a few times not in the mortis trials at wave 12

sometimes when the karnak twins appear i randomly get allmost oneshot

i get 230 dmg and my entire toughness is gone and im left with 5 hp and the rest of my health bar is compelte corruption

any idea what that is?

its not the tox bombs of rodin since i usually stay well clear of them

difficulty is heresy in case someone asks bout that

[vocal nacelle]

Shield bug oneshot

[shadow skiff]

You get downed? Shield glitch. Do not mantle, jump or get thrown next to a captain or them.

Heck, even stairs might be enough to instadown if unlucky.

[modest marten]

not even down

instant death

i get so much corruption with one hit that im left with sooo little regular health

[shadow skiff]

If it's havoc, yeah. Can be instadeath.

[modest marten]

no its mortis trials

lol

[modest marten]

but does that corruption to your healthbar?

[vocal nacelle]

cant remember, rarely play mortis

[keen meteor]

what is the difference between "marks" of equipment?

[vocal nacelle]

moveset , damage, ammo , fire rate

[keen meteor]

is there a list somewhere of the differences for each weapon?

[vocal nacelle]

check class pin there's weapon guide

[keen meteor]

oh thank the emperor its free to swap marks, i thought i would need to get a godroll again

[vocal nacelle]

thats old crafting system

[smoky ember]

bring it back

these newgens get god rolls too easily

they dont know what its like to spend 4m plasteel on a single weapon and get nothing good

[faint perch]

I just check the shop hourly and stock up on anything with 60 for a dump stat

[polar glade]

whats the best class/build to beat the karnaks on damnation with the secret mode?

[tacit badger]

Hi guys im new to modding and I've installed a bunch of others that work but I haven't encountered this problem yet,what does it mean and how do I solve it??,

[vocal nacelle]

Alone or with team?

[polar glade]

either or

[little coyote]

gunlugger ogryn probably

[vocal nacelle]

Not anymore

[little coyote]

what changed?

[vocal nacelle]

32 to 16 fire stack

[little coyote]

ah, well don't think that invalidates the option still

[vocal nacelle]

There's a lot of option

[vocal nacelle]

New player or havoc player?

If you played havoc it's easier than havoc

Just bring pickaxe ogryn + arbites/zealot that's it

The strat is just kill rodin first and have someone hold rinda for a while

[polar glade]

Uhhh old player but havent really done too much havoc

just coming back after a while to see the psyker changes

[polar glade]

any specific arbites/zealot

[vocal nacelle]

The usual elite focus build DS book zealot don't think you can screw up building arbites

[polar glade]

fair

[strange thunder]

I did it with shieldgryn

[cold abyss]

Hi, I'm a Vermintide 2 Cataclysm vet, I played a few Darktide missions in the past as Psyker but then left for a long time. My problem is that I'm completley and utterly lost in the Mourningstar with all the diff vendors, weird names and do not properly understand the progression. My Psyker is level 27 with a 400 power weapon and some 240 power curios. Wat do?

[heavy girder]

some1 know if there is a possibility to see the "loading status" of your blaze force greatsword?

[vocal nacelle]

only 2 important vendor : hadron (upgrade station) , brunt (buying weapon)
maybe melk to buy curio

[vocal nacelle]

loading status?

[cold abyss]

i know that max level is 30, max item lvl is 400

but besides that i dont know what mastery is and whatnot

idk how weapon crafting etc. works

if a Vermintide character is max lvl, i can just craft weapons and roll properties that i want

[vocal nacelle]

your weapon now have level, you can sacrifice same green rank weapon to level it up or you play a mission using that weapon to level it up

the mastery is your blessing sticker book, if you maxed it out you can change all the perks and blessings whenever you want

its cheaper than before

[cold abyss]

So if I have a 400 lvl force sword, I can keep it forever and just change the attributes according to how I want it?

[modest marten]

Im having weird issues with darktides stability gain. i had this a few weeks ago allready but i couldnt resolve it and it went away. within a mission i periodicly get lags every 20 seconds or so and after precisely 5 minutes i will disconnect from the that mission
after reconnecting it will occur allways faster and faster

[vocal nacelle]

you still want to buy a good base weapon and upgrade the stat to max

[cold abyss]

I already have a 400 lvl force sword, I thought I can just reroll the properties

[vocal nacelle]

you can upgrade to 500 if reach max mastery

and reroll the properties and trait

[cold abyss]

should I just try to get 500 mastery on my preffered weapon and then care for rerolling?

[shadow skiff]

You want to reroll for preferred max stats then upgrade.

Warp resist dump for all force swords.

So the right number for it should be 60.

[cold abyss]

So i should upgrade my 400 lv sword to yellow tier first off right?

[vocal nacelle]

yes you get plenty of resource

in damnation

[cloud adder]

the charged attack is basically the same as "aiming down sights"
So, holding LMB does the same as holding RMB, in the end both are counted as "charged attack"?

[void forge]

No? Holding RMB only aims, it doesn't charge

[cloud adder]

the term ‘Aim-Down Sights’ is used, but when inspecting, the term ‘Charged Attack’ is used
Wondered if that are just two different words, for in the end, the same result

[void forge]

Sure, it's not like those numbers mean anything anyway

[cloud adder]

Ye, those numbers are.. odd
Thanks!

[inland lichen]

Does melk's gacha also have a chance for max consecrated gear? Am broke on diamantine and could do with disassembling

[strange thunder]

yeah he has 490-500 ones when at 30

or wait you mean the random ones?

still prob high, given that the curios ones can be up to 430 when lucky

[split obsidian]

Very rare, mostly blues, greens.

A few purples.

[grave moon]

I believe it's 50/50 but I think it has to do with what level your gear already is. It seems more reachable when you have a fully upgraded weapon already

Lol which is kind of pointless unless you want another weapon but usually they come with trash stats

Like on my fully leveled arbite and psyker I end up with nothing but gold weapons. How far upgraded and how the stats are is rare to get a good one

I have better odds with the cheap weapons and fully upgrading by doing damnation or higher difficulty

Kind of wish they let you use those coins on outfits inst

Instead

You can always use them temporarily till you upgrade your cheap one with perfect stats

[grave moon]

It was more useful in the older patches. When everything was hard to roll for. You would roll for base item level with the trash gear in the regular shop and hope for a weapon with good blessings on it in the melks so you can learn the blessings

[keen meteor]

okay, if I have 400 power level gear but 2 200ish power level relics, would that explain why I'm only rolling around the 350s for sire melk's random relics?

yep, thats it

[strange thunder]

I think melk stuff is only reliant on your character level

random relics are in a range

you can get up to 430, but often it's just 350+

so you need to spend a lot to get lucky

[stoic locust]

I got a full set of toughness curios for like 20k melkbux when Arby's dropped

[strange thunder]

I never get that lucky, I haven't even bothered to get only full ones on all my characters

[keen meteor]

did some testing, bought 3 350 relics and equipped them, average went up to 400
i'm talking about the random curios for 250 melkbux a pop

[grave moon]

Yeah pretty much curios you have better luck there the weapons are very rare to have good stats

I think my psyker was the only one that had a good roll on a flame staff

[strange thunder]

that shouldn't matter idt

[grave moon]

The equipping them doesn't matter just having the highest upgraded in inventory

[autumn crescent]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9ffb5fd9-655c-4fef-86af-187952d06cfb/lasgun-veteran-current

How's this veteran build?

I like the knife/shovel + Laspistol combo

[grave moon]

I say don't beat it till you try it

You can always change your mind later

I know it will require weak spot hits if it has knife

Or back stab

[autumn crescent]

It's ass with the shovel

Time to try knife

[steady hornet]

game keeps saying I dont have enough memory to launch anymore and just closes itself?? Im not sure what to do anymore I verified files, restarted pc, etc. I've never had this issue before so idk what lack of memory its talking about

[lone adder]

Thats a hardware issue it sounds like

[grave moon]

Have you tried cleaning your pc of cache and unnecessary files?

[pastel forge]

have you tried turning it on and off again

[steady hornet]

ill try this when i get home ty!

[fleet crest]

Why do people rush so hard on almost every Heresy or Damnation mission

I just want to farm resources so I can at least upgrade my gear

[split obsidian]

because heresy and damnation are lower xp than auric

and you need to play x of both, to unlock the next

you also get more resources on auric so...

also people are dumb and just rush, even when they shouldn't.

[fleet crest]

I’m trying to unlock Auric by completing damnation on my Psyker and it’s really frustrating

So essentially they just skip the resources and don’t care? Like damn

I didn’t realize it was this bad

[fleet crest]

Almost like I want to just leave them or walk past them if they go down

And communicating to them in text chat, they just ignore or don’t say anything

[split obsidian]

that's randoms

[fleet crest]

I also just made like one of my Psyker builds and had to spend a lot of resources to get the curio I wanted

[verbal knot]

Did the max curio stats change

[grave moon]

No

[verbal knot]

Damn my luck just do be ass then

[grave moon]

Just still rare to get high rolls

[rustic bough]

does anyone know how to fix the pop up that makes u crash to desktop 'out of memory. please close all background applications and try again.' ?

[stoic locust]

--lua-heap-mb-size 2048

Add this as a launch option

You will never out of ram crash again

[eager basin]

Are people with names like this just doing it for jokes or is like a specific font that just doesnt show up?

[stoic locust]

CJK characters

They don't show by default but theres a mod that will fix it

[eager basin]

Ended up being some loser who leaves after a single down from a teammate

[exotic fjord]

Not sure if this is the right channel - direct me elsewhere if needed, but would anyone be willing to help me get the Just a Flesh Wound Penance for Zealot on steam on Steam? I am working through all Zealot penances now and it's my second to last one because it requires a private game to complete.

Might actually just through this in the general chat.

[pastel forge]

lfg channels would prob be a good place to ask

[exotic fjord]

Thanks!

[rustic bough]

where do i do that

[stoic locust]

Steam launch options

[rustic bough]

ok thanks

ok where is that lol

ok nvm found it

[brave breach]

if you dont mind me asking, does this change anythign gameplay wise

[stoic locust]

No

Just increases the max size of the amount of data the game is allowed to keep in ram at once (i think)

[brave breach]

so just this?

[stoic locust]

Yes

Should prevent out of ram crashes

Even with mods

[brave breach]

So i noticed arbites has one exclusive hairstyle, and zealot for some reason is missing a hairstyle that the other humans has, anyone has noted of all the exclusive changes like this per class?

[strange thunder]

aren't some like exclusive to owning VT2 or something

or is that just colors

[brave breach]

But those are shared thru all human classes right? Except the ogryn tattoo?

Unless the ogryn Mohawk is also tied to it

[strange thunder]

devoted rejects pack is that

so maybe some of them are locked

[brave breach]

Afaik everything from the humans is shared between all 4 classes

[keen meteor]

do any classes other than zealot use the Eviscerator?

[clear plume]

evis is zealot only

[keen meteor]

while im waiting for them to actually discuss zealot stuff, I suppose I'll ask here: which mark is better for cleavage? I can't find much information on it online

[clear plume]

cleaving would probably be mk15 lights, or either of them with a shred/perfect strike setup

[smoky ember]

just ask in zealot chat, usually someone will answer you

both are about the same, mk3 has the benefit of H1 being a sweep, so does a bit more damage and a bit more cleave than the lights on mk15, but with shred and perfect strike, on a piety build, they’ll both cleave plenty

perfect strike multiplies enemy hitmass by 0.25, which essentially increases your cleave by 4x

and allows you to cleave carapace and bulwark shields

i’d have to test the numbers but i believe they both have 9 cleave on lights

unsure about mk3 H1 cleave value though

[undone prawn]

Anyone knows how to turn off the black and white screen during last wound remaining?

[clear plume]

mods only

[undone prawn]

dang

[wraith pebble]

Is there a way to get the achievements that require a private group to be done solo? Or do I need a friend with me?

[clear plume]

need a friend

[wraith pebble]

Dang D;

[rigid wasp]

Duo & private match

[modest marten]

is there a way how i can avoid people like that? (he died)

[keen flume]

Nope sadly

Best thing you can do is blocking the players so you don't meet with them again

[fierce flicker]

cant really avoid toxicity, but at least he removed himself for you

[modest marten]

it is like this for 4/10 of the missions i play

[fierce flicker]

thats rather high

unfortunately people are like that on the internet

could always turn the chatbox off with a mod if youre using pc and it genuinely lowers your enjoyment of the game

i dont think theres an option for that in vanilla unfortunately

[modest marten]

i feel like stuff like this is more common in higher difficulties

back when i exclusivly played heresy i rarely had such encounters but now since i play damnation and above its super common

[brave breach]

I play auric quickplay and I rarely encounter this

[modest marten]

especially on auric. jezuz

[vocal nacelle]

I only got it 3 times in my 1K playtime

[keen flume]

You play on heresy and damnation?

[vocal nacelle]

Auric difficulty

[keen flume]

I would say that Heresy and damnation brings the most out of toxic players for some reason

Auric is quite rare to occur of people talking shit on chat

Besides ragequiters after getting down once

[modest marten]

they just leave...

[vocal nacelle]

That's normal

Quitter is normal, trash talking is rare

[brave breach]

Tbf, in auric im too busy actually playing the game to read chat half the time

[modest marten]

theres not a lot in the chat and im a quick reader so a quick sideeye is usually enough to get everything

[faint perch]

Don’t suck. Lol.

But in all seriousness at higher difficulty levels there tends to be better teamwork, so less chance of people blaming others for their own mistakes

[modest marten]

its not like i dont try my best you know?

[faint perch]

I presume you aren’t doing things like not placing med/ammo packs, wandering away from the group, luring big groups of mobs, using up med bay charges when other people need them more, shooting barrels near players, etc

[modest marten]

ive got over 800 hours in this game now and i take care to not do stupid things

[keen flume]

I mean i doubt it is any of your fault

[faint perch]

Yeah. You’ve just had bad luck with players, i think. Perhaps it’s because of where i live, but i’ve been lucky enough to meet mostly nice people. But there are plenty who do silly things. If it’s a low difficulty level i just presume they’re new and try to support them the best i can

[keen flume]

And is just the guy who is bad at playing and likes to blame others

if you go down, die and start yelling at the chat about others not backing up while they fighting i say that is a skill issue

[modest marten]

i dont mind others being a little silly sometimes and i really try to help others to the best of my ability

maybe its just due to the time i play or something yeah

[keen flume]

there are times you have to avoid in helping in some situations

[modest marten]

definetly yeah

[faint perch]

Yeah, honestly there’s not much you can do about complainers. Just keep doing what you’re doing, because we need more people like you

[modest marten]

so just block him and hope to not get matched with him again, got it.

[keen flume]

Barrel them off the map when they stand close to one

[grave moon]

Yes! Or let them be eaten by dog

[grave moon]

Heresy I agree with damnation not so much. The toxic people can't pass heresy

[inland lichen]

How long does this take exclusively queuing pubbies in auric?

[strange thunder]

I wouldn't say it's that much of a lower success rate than doing it on lower difficulties

since player skill goes down

[inland lichen]

Going down to lower difficulties to babysit sounds more boring and troublesome than it's worth

[strange thunder]

yeah I think I have passively racked up like 20 wins on that atoma's elite guard penance on auric maelstrom

you just get a good team and it all goes smooth

[languid jewel]

Dude when i lvld my psyker i did damnation at lvl 6 to lvl faster and i was the last one alive and all these lvl30s started flaming me to kimgdom come like its all my fault

Sometimes the cope in players is unreal

[languid jewel]

In aurics prolly forever lol😂

[strange thunder]

I've only gotten vote kicked once, and it was for moving "too far ahead" at the start of a mission when I was leveling my 2nd zealot

and why I never go below auric willingly

too far ahead meant I jumped down to where the enemies were when my teammates were 10 m behind me

did I get downed or make an ass out of myself? no

I just got votekicked lol

[languid jewel]

I swear these damnation players are gatekeeping soooo hard its pathetic😂

And then theyre not even good

[strange thunder]

heresy is usually the worst place

[languid jewel]

Ised to be yeah

[strange thunder]

damnation at least used to be the highest

[frail fable]

i can agree, lately been playing in europe's heresy for a bit to lvl up a char, and it's filled with people who don't know what a melee weapon is for some reason 🤣 no toxicity but it's annoying to babysit people who get down at each hordes

[gusty whale]

shooter mindset

[frail fable]

Yeah, i' mjust hoping at some point they'll learn to switch weapon and block stuff, because it's concerning for these players

[fierce charm]

Is there a spreadsheet of all titles and how to get them? Or a website that has this information?

[strange thunder]

can't you see them when looking at the cosmetics tab?

[keen flume]

If you look through penances yes

[keen flume]

You can check from penances but there are mods that makes it far easy to look from your inventory and how to obtain

[fierce charm]

I see! Thank you

[graceful coyote]

Asked in general chat but didn't got any answer. Quite the opposite. So asking here:
So, need some explanation, please. Didn't play game for a while and now jumping from time to time. Sadly I have no friends that play this game so that's why. Trying to find someone for Havoc. I did that only once with random and my rank is 1 (played only 1 run). Cannot matchmake and cannot find anyone and it's annoying. Do i really need to do that level by level or what? How does that work? If I find someone can they take me to higher level? Thank you

[stoic locust]

Do an auric maelstorm

It'll boost you to 16

Nobody plays anything lower

[vocal nacelle]

Find your region in lfg chat or play auric maelstrom first

[graceful coyote]

@vocal nacelle @stoic locust Thank you very much 🙂

[alpine swan]

does leaving an auric maelstrom mission before I go down reset my progress for the title?

[vocal nacelle]

no , thats the cheese

dunno if FS fixed that

[alpine swan]

oh, so I can still progress it then, thanks!

[vale anvil]

They haven't

[nocturne hinge]

Having an issue changing my dogs skin. I equipped the dlc robo dog skin I got last night and tried to change it to something else today and nothing I do fixes it. Tried restarting, validating game files, nothing works. Every other cosmetic I want to use swaps out just fine.

[upbeat knot]

Might be a silly question but i cant find a decent answer to it, but what does Salvo mean in this game for the blessings on weapons?

[stoic locust]

Shots before a recoil reset

[upbeat knot]

So for the Infantry Autoguns I'd want to shoot it in burst if i put the salvo blessings on

[stoic locust]

You probably don't want the salvo blessings

I can think of like 3 weapons that use them

Marks of weapons

[upbeat knot]

Makes sense, I'm just looking for other stuff to try aside from a flammer and boltgun

[tawdry knoll]

Hi anybody can help me with frienzer killer 2? I'm just need some people to replace the bots and let me get the kills

[languid jewel]

Just play psyker and profit

[brave breach]

Spitballing here, but does revive speed affect any sort of mutant interaction, in any way, shape or form?

[little coyote]

Can't see why would it?

[brave breach]

Me neither, but cant always be too sure with fatshark

[smoky ember]

no

[brave breach]

Assumed so

[fleet crest]

that happens way too much from what I've seen on Heresy and Damnation. If only the block limit was not capped to 50. Doubt there's a mod to increase or bypass the limit

but otherwise, you can intentionally not rescue or revive that type of person if they go down

[modest marten]

yeah maybe. Buts its my belief that not rescuing or reviving people only makes things worse.

except for when hes activly sabotaging the remaining team

[lethal glen]

I'm having issue switching my dog skin too
I want to equip the robo skin but I can't

It just automatically swaps back to the default skin no matter what I do

What causes this issue? I disabled all the mods and the framework, in case that has caused it but it's still not fixed

[nocturne hinge]

Yea I haven't figured it out. Honestly it seems like it's server related

[gleaming copper]

i quit the game, switched ops nothing worked

(dog issue too

[nocturne hinge]

Cuz like last night initially the issue I was having was that I'd make the changes, everything looked fine, I closed out the menu and my dog was the same. Opened up the menu and my dog reverted back to robo dog in the menus like it just didn't want to take.

BUT...

today, it retains my change in the menu. So when I change it and close out, my dog doesn't change but when I reopen the menu, the dog is showing the skin I selected

So the game knows I want to make the change. It accepted the change. But it's not actually changing my dog for some reason

[gleaming copper]

weird

[nocturne hinge]

I think it started with the latest update

Tbh

[gleaming copper]

most likely

[nocturne hinge]

Fat shark broke shit

[lethal glen]

For me still when I open the inventory again it's reverted to default there too
I wish I could equip the robo skin, it looks so cute

But well, the default is cute too

[gleaming copper]

yeah same

[lethal glen]

Hopefully they fix it soon

At least now I know it's like this for everyone

So it will surely get fixed

[nocturne hinge]

Yea that's how mine was initially

[gleaming copper]

i just hate the normal dog thats what's pissing me off

[nocturne hinge]

But eventually the menu started showing the changes but in game it's still not accepting them

I actually want to change back to the normal dog lol

[gleaming copper]

hmm

[nocturne hinge]

Not a fan of robo mutt

[gleaming copper]

i am

[lethal glen]

I even tried putting on the talent that removes doggo (lone wolf) and changing, and then turning doggo back on
But no luck

And I'm a great fan of robo dogs too

[gleaming copper]

im gonna try one thing hol up

[lethal glen]

Ok

[gleaming copper]

hmm nope, i tried changing it before going into the mission but defaults to basic dog

[lethal glen]

Hmmm yeah, seems like we just have to wait and hope they fix it

[keen flume]

Loner Arbites players chilling with this one

[gleaming copper]

true

i have something else i can try

hmm nope

nothing changeds the dog's skin

[nocturne hinge]

Real

I tried switching to that just to see if it would reset it and it doesn't

[gleaming copper]

strange because now there is 2 greens

[nocturne hinge]

Honestly I've been considering getting rid of the dog entirely

[gleaming copper]

and im pretty sure it was only 1

nothing changes in them so

[nocturne hinge]

I have the perk that marks elites so I can kill them for a stacking buff and on Christ every time I'm lining up a shot, damn dog knocks him down just as I pull the trigger

If I could get it to target snipers and pox bombers specifically that would be amazing

[gleaming copper]

you can

just tag twice the same enemy and the dog will rush to them and bite em down

[nocturne hinge]

Yes I'm talking about the auto priority

So that it only auto pounced certain mobs

You can set priority for elites or ranged but idk what selecting ranged will do for it overall. It's still nice to have it pounce ragers and whatnot. But I don't think it'll pounce pox bombers at all

Usually by the time I have LOS of them, it's too late for all that.

[inland lichen]

Any idea precisely what the event does to enemy spawns? Do the choices even matter?

[clear plume]

in mission (triggered per certain amount of pickups each):
recover spawns bulwark waves (50), plague ogryns (100), and 2 plague ogryns with ogryn wave (350)
destroy spawns armored groaner waves (50), captain (100), and twins (350)
daily total (presumably):
if destroyed wins: ranged buff for players, infinite ranged cleave/double ammo; inferno circumstance mission; more hordes, armored groaner replacement
if recovered wins: stimm buff, attack speed/reload speed/dodge speed/dodge distance/more stamina; walking giants circumstance mission; head parasite mutator; mutant waves

(in mission spawns scale per difficulty, listed is auric)

[inland lichen]

Infinite ranged cleave

I'm guessing it's best to alternate between both in a mission?

[grave moon]

Depends seems one is more range buffs the other is more general

[warm hollow]

hey, i hope this is the right place to ask: I have seen some footage of people playing with healthbars for enemiesand was wondering whether that is a well hidden in Game option, or a mod?

[grave moon]

Mod I believe

Normally only giant monstrosities show hp or bosses

[fickle ether]

Some of the post say it's bugged cant confirm as I dont use it https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kdarktide/mods/16

[polar forum]

Bugged? Idk works for me

[fickle ether]

🤷‍♂️

[polar forum]

There’s a few health bar mods though

[modest marten]

the only instance where "regular sized" enemies have healthbars is in the meat grinder to my knowledge and for monstrosities/bosses only 2 health bars at a time are shows even with there are 5 or even more in combat with you

[keen flume]

Someone made an improved version of it

To feature the ritualists health

[turbid gate]

hey peeps, I joined discord to ask what's the bars below my stamina? I haven't played in a while and just noticed that there are bars under my stam bar... I was wondering if anyone could tell me what it is

when I had my melee out it was 4 abrs and when I had my gun out it was 2 bars

[grave moon]

Dodge bats

Bars

[turbid gate]

oooh cool

tqtq

when did they add that?

[grave moon]

Those are for dodges for full neglect of damage. You can still dodge after but it's percentage of damage

I don't know

[turbid gate]

oh so they are iframe doges?

[grave moon]

Yes

[turbid gate]

or jsut showing us how much we can full doge then is becomes slow doges

[turbid gate]

oh sweet!

thanks very much!

[grave moon]

No problem

[vocal nacelle]

recent mortis update

[keen meteor]

what is the gameplay difference between recovering and destorying rations?

[grave moon]

Buffs

[vocal nacelle]

Spawns

Recover spawn ogryns

[grave moon]

Pick them up don't be a heretic

[sinful summit]

im certain that giving citizens likely nurgle contaminated food isnt heretical at all

[vernal plaza]

Stupid 1 2 promp instead of e
Thank god we have modders to help

[grave moon]

Lol

[brave breach]

Nuh uh

[grave moon]

Lol

[sinful summit]

modding a vanilla feature lmao

just change the keybind

[vernal plaza]

I skip the entire button pressing and just autoloot it
Alao funni 3 interact keybinds

[shadow skiff]

Tell that to FS for controllers.

[brave breach]

Well controller has so many buttons, unlike mnk where you have the entirety if the keyboard

[shadow skiff]

Yes, but I would like to also bind it to X, which is the interact button.

Not accidentally using a medkit or crate in a useless spot trying to pick up a damn ration.

[brave breach]

Yes it sucks, I know

[burnt whale]

any tips on completing make every shot count penance? my aim isn't the best and i currently have a plasma gun as my main/ranged weapon

if ppl don't know or remember the penance is this: Complete a Mission on Heresy Threat or higher with no Ammo remaining, and 90 accuracy.

[little coyote]

plasma was my go-to with it, just get one with a bad ammo stat roll so you don't have to worry about hitting as many shots

[keen oracle]

You can use the double barrel, as long as one pellet hits, it counts as a hit

[burnt whale]

i just tried to in pubs but enemies kept getting killed by others just as i was shooting them

so i might need to ask for help in lfg or try to play in a private server

[shadow skiff]

Mag dump the boss or crushers. Don't care about the damage. Keep maybe 5 rounds incase of trappers.

Only use melee otherwise.

[burnt whale]

it was also difficult bc some1 in game had survivalist

[patent jasper]

just gotta remember to fire off the rest of your ammo before entering the escape

[shadow skiff]

If so, magdump everything asap and NEVER EVER swap to gun.

The ammo from survivalist doesn't count untill you swap.

[burnt whale]

you mean it doesn't count ammo from stock or the game doesn't acknowledge that there IS ammo in stock until you swap?

[shadow skiff]

Unless you pick up ammo or swap, the game ignores any ammo granted by it for the penance.

[burnt whale]

cool ty for this tip

[gleaming copper]

any news if arb's dog is fixed?

[vocal nacelle]

which one

[void forge]

If you mean the cosmetic issue then no, I haven't seen a fix drop

[icy crater]

Idk if this has been asked or not but for the new event is it per player or per group progress?

[craggy minnow]

Per group

(Like everything else)

[icy crater]

Based

[craggy minnow]

Penances track individually but everything like events and melk contracts your teammates count for

They don't want people competing for them

Same reason mats are group pickup

[icy crater]

Yeah for a moment I thought I was grabbing them all

[craggy minnow]

Darktide is fairly good about avoiding design antipatterns like that

[smoky ember]

@cyan viper

[cyan viper]

big thanks

[dry shadow]

hello guys, i'm experiencing heavy lagg and disconnects since the last big update (bound by duty). Anyone else ? any solution ? (every other games works fine)

[willow fern]

realistically what was I supposed to do here, theres like 10+ crushers

better pic

[clear plume]

Often backing up

find a way to stagger them, with either yellow barrels or abilities/weapons

you can use terrain to stop them while you chip them down

ledges and doors

or you can build alot into dealing with them

take a high carapace damage weapon, thunder hammer, then just 1 shot them

There are a lot of variables that can be adjusted to win

there is always a way to win any engagment

[willow fern]

well yeah but it sure as hell felt like the tides heh were against us

a wave of mutants + crushers at the same time, even if I dodged the crusher the mutant is most likely going to sneak up behind me which I cannot look since my attention is on the crusher then I get CC'd into a down slam

[clear plume]

I understand the scenario

mutants are the 1st threat to be dealt with

this will come with time, but finding the mutant timing to dodge them and finishing them while dodging the crushers

the mutant will get hard staggered if they miss and hit a wall

so if able to, but your back agaisnt the wall

A good way to learn to avoid these is to watch others or keep playing

You will see True Solo players using all their tools to get of these spots

[stoic locust]

Mutants also toss you immediately if you're near a wall

If you like gambling you can use it to reposition

[modest marten]

but be aware. ive also been thrown through walls some times if close to a wall

[clear plume]

they will often slam you even when agaisnt a wall if that wall moves

ie the brick walls in mercentile that break

ie spawner doors enemies come out of

[potent gull]

Do normal weakspot hits count as crits? Like when you swing a sword and it hits a normal guy in the head? How do i know if a crit happened its when the hitmarker goes yellow? Or when it has a double lines?

[clear plume]

you can test in the testing room

but 2 lines for headshot

yellow for crit

[potent gull]

Does it specifically tell you when you get a crit?

[clear plume]

no

but hit the body until you crit

and it turns yellow

sorry

yes

[potent gull]

Thats why I was wondering what the reticles meant thanks

[clear plume]

it will be a yellow hitmarker when you crit

2 lines if it hit a headshot

[potent gull]

Okay, so I’m getting crits way less often than I hoped thats good to know, thank you

[grave moon]

Orange is critical yellow is weakpoint

[clear plume]

no?

stop confusing them...

they changed it back at crafting update

and I think thats what you are remembering

[grave moon]

Darktide, crits are indicated by an orange hitmarker or damage number, though recent game updates may have swapped the colors, with orange now indicating a crit and yellow indicating a weakspot hit. Other visual cues include an orange glow on the weapon for melee attacks, and particle effects like crackling lasers for ranged weapons. You can also listen for a distinct audio cue associated with a critical hit

[clear plume]

Where was this?

Confused they it says yellow for headshot

even on BoN its white with 2 lines

[grave moon]

Meat grinder is opposite

[clear plume]
