gameplay-help

[arctic sinew]

the combos feel a lot worse, all the lights are strikedown

the sweeping moves are more annoying to access

[pastel forge]

Its pretty much a preference thing

If youre used to mk2's patterns, use that one, otherwise mk10 is easier to learn from what i know

[arctic sinew]

also I have yet to get any of the big boss one shot damage with shroudfield builds that they advertise

[balmy moat]

thammer with thrust?

[arctic sinew]

well I've seen people do it with relic blades is the thing

[balmy moat]

it can work but i use thammer

idk how well relic does it in auric or havoc but i know thammer works in h40

[arctic sinew]

maybe I should try thammer

[lime idol]

Relic blade is not as good as TH at boss killing, but is overall a significantly more versatile weapon

For starters you can actually deal with rager waves on ur own with it without much risk

[balmy moat]

chaos spawns give me trouble but its an easy fix

[arctic sinew]

Yeah I want the more versatile option, but I’m pretty sure with the shroud blade build the relic blade should still be doing more damage than it is

Maybe I’m missing something?

[lime idol]

Wot

[zealous dome]

Sprint Heavy Stab?

[smoky ember]

sprint thrust

you can also hit cspawn weakspot through their back with the thrust

[craggy minnow]

The relic blade joust is incredibly strong yeah

You can FOTF it too

[novel ermine]

You gotta tailor your thammermaxxing build a bit pal. You missed a good number of damagemaxxing talents in your build.

[quasi breach]

Can anyone help with the last 3 martyr skulls I need? I'm missing Vault Spireside, Archivum Sycorax, and Ascension Riser 31

[crimson bridge]

does the bomber damage reduction curio help with the tox gas and the fire on the floor

or is it only for their actual attacks and not the aoe dots

[crimson bridge]

oh so its like everything lol

[vocal nacelle]

not really a top pick for curio perks

[rotund ermine]

it works but most people concentrate more on the Scab Gunners, Dreg Gunners or Snipers because they're more numeourus and suppress you than bombers

[craggy minnow]

Revive speed is kinda goated rn
Toughness or hp are always good, whichever you're stacking
Then you get into weird stuff like gunner/sniper res or sprint efficiency that kinda depends on what you play and how you play it

[rotund ermine]

Plasma Gunner doesn't work?

Like the Gunner Resistance perk doesn't work on them?

[vocal nacelle]

Nope

[strange thunder]

it does not

but just don't get hit by them

they usually only break your toughness so

[vocal nacelle]

And -75% toughness gain + slow if you get hit for few sec

[craggy minnow]

If you're gonna get owned by them resist isnt gonna help the way it does vs gunners anyway

[strange thunder]

there's no packs of them like there was at the event anymore really

and no plasma gunner modifier on maelstrom

[craggy minnow]

Sniper res is mostly if you can get past a breakpoint to stay up after tanking a shot in various conditions

[strange thunder]

besides all ranged

which is v rare

yeah sniper res is to prevent death

[craggy minnow]

I did notice they're downright rare now i haven't played much recently

During the event mortis would send like 50 plasma gunners at once it was wacky

[strange thunder]

ye and then they also shot faster and without warning

[craggy minnow]

Better hope someone rolled shields somehow

[strange thunder]

so it was like triple whammy during event

yeah mortis was also wack

but who plays mortis after penances are done

[craggy minnow]

I like it in between a few missions to mix things up

[strange thunder]

if I could pick map I would've liked it a bit more

but it's just too slow for my taste

even on auric

[craggy minnow]

There's fun to be had like rolling pyro on flamer zealot

Its mostly for the goof i don't really bother with auric

[strange thunder]

yeah you can do fun stuff, but the downsides are not worth it

[craggy minnow]

I don't really need resources or anything so games is games

I like to chill out and do goofy grenadegryn stuff or go wacko

The new crit arcana on shivs is really stupid and funny

Everyone in front of you literally explodes

[balmy moat]

its a build from a friend, it works in h40, and i play zealot once in a blue moon. i'm not worried about it

as a frame of comparision how little i play it, my main psyker is TL 995, i have 2 other main psykers sub100, and my 14th throwaway psyker is lvl 28, and i start 15th once 14 hits 30 and i delete her, zealot is the 2nd most played other class in my roster

[crimson bridge]

does failing the train mission from timer but still being alive reset your progress for this penance?

[little coyote]

Does the the train 'mission' even count towards that because it's an operation not a mission?

[strange thunder]

it counts as mission for all other penances

operation is just the class, like assassination

[languid jewel]

No clue

I think as long as you dont die it does not reset.

However im not sure if failed mission equals death.

And i think this is the only one where that can happen right?

[balmy moat]

i dont have that penance done either, i could test it if i remember to

[patent jasper]

Yea no other mission is timed

[dense sundial]

When you're in the "is_dodging" state granted by certain talents/blessings, are you immune to hound's pounce attack or trapper's net?

[balmy moat]

i send the question to a friend who reads the code, he's midhavoc so cant do a dive but,

he is pretty sure no, youre not immune

[dense sundial]

Thanks for the help! (I recognize Six. He seems very active in the psyker class channel)

[balmy moat]

yes he made the guide and is very active, i did misunderstand though he's at work not havoc, so it'd be a bit before he can confirm

but its always better to dodge trappers and dodge+push dogs to be on the safe side

[dense sundial]

Yeah I presumed so. Countless times I dodged into something or some enemy and got fked by dogs and nets, so I guess there's no i-frame in dodging against those

[dense sundial]

Btw I also asked on Steam and Kuli gave a more detailed answer

[untold compass]

What exactly are the differences between the five difficulties?

[pastel forge]

more enemies and more enemy hp

prob some more stuff too

[clear plume]

There is a lot of minor things. But in short. More enemies, more ogryns, bosses spawn more often (max of 2 outside map boss spawns). Enemies also have more HP and deal more damage

[alpine umbra]

Anyone got any general tips just getting into this game. I have a few hundred hrs in v2 but haven't touched it in years.

[shadow skiff]

Rebind dodge and jump or change preset to alt 1. Then just get used to dodging more.

[polar forum]

that's a good tip

and don't trust gameslantern public builds, or youtuber builds-- they're often misinformed

check pins in each of the class chats

[alpine umbra]

Ooh yeah that's a great one thanks, forgot that's what I had done in v2

[alpine umbra]

Noted thank you 😄

[vocal nacelle]

dodge as usual

sprint slide or dodge to avoid bullets

[broken pine]

Is there any good guide/Discussions for what blessings to take, specially on knife?

[void forge]

Check the hammer of the emperor guide in vet pins

[shadow skiff]

Uncanny, uncanny, uncanny. Riposte or bleeds. Mercykiller if funni vet memes.

[broken pine]

Yeah, I got the uncanny part, but Why take Riposte over Precognition?

Also I see a lot of people with flesh tearer, but that does not seem too useful

[rotund ermine]

We have bleed builds or backstab crits

I remember gaming lantern have those

[balmy moat]

when in doubt, trust the guides in class chat pins, dont trust random gameslantern builds, they're 99 times out of 100 shit

[broken pine]

I'm trying to piece together a Book build from the pins in zealot class an several gameslantern builds

but the guide there does not have any directly

everyone in games lantern is putting crit perks on weapons but but none of the guides are. The number is really low, but for some talents could be useful, right?

[shadow skiff]

Precog lasts too short imo.

[shadow skiff]

Lacerate is mostly to get bleed stacks so you crit more as zealot.

Or you double down on crit bleeds so if you ding ding ding.

Is more if you run left. To all in on crit CDR.

[broken pine]

hmm the build I was looking at does go left, but doesn't take the crit on bleeding node even if it has lacerate on the weapon

[shadow skiff]

Which is weird. The point of running lacerate is to generate even more crits.

[vocal nacelle]

who made the build

zealot chat?

[cold moon]

• Better to push enemies than to block their attacks. You can smoothly transition from a push to a melee attack.

• For choosing perks on a melee weapon or gun, 98% of the time will be Flak + Maniac.

• In the Interface settings, change from On to Off for "Show Stamina with 25% dividers" to show a better representation of how much Stamina you have in a mission. The Stamina bar will be more precise. Also, select Both Always On for "Stamina/Dodge Bar Visibility".

[broken pine]

nah, that was a games lantern one https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9e8d83ef-9ea9-4f49-adb4-e8da42277cd8/meta-nrgaas-knife-support-havoc-40

zealot chat does not have a book build

[frosty charm]

I feel like Zealot has the least of community resources like guides to use, I personally try to readup on some mechanics here https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3088553235&searchtext=zealot That is often enough to explain what is needed. The guide has also other useful links including Melee Weapons guide that explains mechanics behind all the perks so you can check out knife there and see if it helps.

Its not Ogrynomicon, but its something

[languid sail]

so what's the max power cap on curios anyways? the highest i've seen them go is 430
i know it doesn't actually matter because health maxes out at 21%, toughness at 17% and stamina by 3

still, big numbers are funny

[shadow skiff]

430 max.

[fierce sandal]

At the very least, drop the block breaking talent and pick up the crit on bleed/bleed ob crit talent

Imo

Also it doesn't have either of the straight up DR nodes 😱

[fleet gyro]

Does Darktide have crossplay?
In the FAQ they say it doesn't but I'm pretty sure I've seen other systems while playing on Steam

[shadow skiff]

It does. All consoles and pc last I checked.

Unless the console gamer turns it off.

[fleet gyro]

Ah alright, cool
Thanks

[balmy moat]

the main thing it lacks is, console users cant transfer their stuff to a steam account if they get a pc

its like, characters, levels, and maybe currency i think? but things like aquilas, cosmetics, items, i think those all are stuck on the console account

so the FAQ saying it doesnt has me thinking that, thats what they thought crossplay means

[shadow skiff]

Usually it means you can play with other people on different systems.

[balmy moat]

usually, yeah

but its also fatshark

[pastel forge]

Either that or they just forgot to update the faq

[keen flume]

Id say that there's a difference between cross play and cross progression

In which they said the game allows cross play through platforms but not featuring cross progression/save

[simple locust]

what is finesse damage?

[pastel forge]

Crit and headshot damage

[keen flume]

Increase on weakspot damage

[smoky ember]

and crit

[alpine umbra]

Brill that's great thank you shall change the interface stuff later today

[scenic snow]

not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but if i'm happy with my curios and low on dockets/diamantine, is a good use of melk bucks buying items to discard?

[keen flume]

Would be better discard the weapons you been collecting through missions if you have lot of them

[scenic snow]

yeah those are all done

[keen flume]

You can do with Melk but you end up losing valuable currency

[scenic snow]

how so?

i'm thinking that if all 6 of my dudes are 30 and have perfect curios, there's nothing really to use melk bucks on other than discards for resources, but idk if i'm missing something

[shadow skiff]

New class soontm. There's internal class name leaks now.

[keen flume]

In 9 months

[keen flume]

Well if you got the perfect roll curios on all classes guess there's not much to use Melk

[smoky ember]

oh there are?

what is it

[clear plume]

space marine...

but a cripple

[shadow skiff]

I think ppl say the files called it cryptic.

Like adamant and broker.

[smoky ember]

hmm

necron cryptwarden !

probably adeptus

of some kind

[shadow skiff]

No clue, but ppl speculate it's the admech to calm the crazy admad ppl.

Some think it's another breed of ganger.

[smoky ember]

cold trader’s role has mostly been fulfilled by scum imo

i doubt we’ll get one now

unfortunately

so my guess is adeptus

[smoky ember]

if it’s a ganger

another ganger

[shadow skiff]

Just, worth saving like 100k melk for whenever lul.

[smoky ember]

i just brute force it with raw mats tbh

i don’t bother with melk

[shadow skiff]

Can't brute force curios.

[smoky ember]

whuh

yes?

[shadow skiff]

Unless you mean speed run train with increased curio drops.

[smoky ember]

oh wait

noh u can’t

nvm sorry i confused my self

[shadow skiff]

Why need melk bux to gamble.

[sharp salmon]

I don't care if it counts as cheating, is there a mod that disables the fog on Ventilation Purge? I hate hate hate Ventilation Purge. It has ruined quickplay for me.

[lime idol]

Machine god’s light I think?

It’s pretty new

Allows u to alter all maps’ lighting

[keen flume]

Was it not removed?

I know that some people here do have it

[candid cliff]

where do i go if i want some body to help me wit a penance

[pastel forge]

Lfg channels

[fickle ether]

Doesnt look like it https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kdarktide/mods/684

[fresh ocean]

How is zealot suppose to get 40 kills while enemies are stunned via stun grenade when it can't even do enough aoe damage before the stun runs out?

hence doing shocking stuff which is another shockingly bad penance that exist but oh well

[clear plume]

you dont need to kill with the grenade

just kill enemies that were affected by the nade

ie, a flamer

stun then swap and flame

[fresh ocean]

yeah thats what i said

but it doesn't last enough time?

and like man getting 40 enemies to spawn that are just regular?

[craggy minnow]

Stagger two stun grenade throws before switching

Its timer based

[fresh ocean]

most clips i see somehow break the penance because its like 20 enemies and not 40

[craggy minnow]

Rather than one stun

[fresh ocean]

I can try that but i need a way to solo and have 40 pox walkers

[craggy minnow]

Yeah its kinda hard with pubs
Queue into a mission that's right about to expire off the board and you might get solo

[fresh ocean]

yeah but then you get bots

which bots kill pox walkers

[craggy minnow]

Or find someone to private game with

[fresh ocean]

i doubt anyone is looking to help with it

[craggy minnow]

Bots arent really good at clearing the horde

People offer to help with penances all the time

Im out of the house though

[fresh ocean]

i was doing the train mission and it was a bunch of pox walkers and unfortunately the bots were killing more pox walker then could spawn

[craggy minnow]

Im gonna be real essentially no one gets a 4 stack for penance hunting if you need more unkilled horde tick the difficulty up or look for high intensity

I did it in a damnation pub i think

[fresh ocean]

yeah it was a rolling steel auric with high intensity

[craggy minnow]

Rolling steel has way fewer enemies because its an operation and has a timer

[fresh ocean]

ive no idea where i would see more enemies

[craggy minnow]

And is on a thin little train

[smoky ember]

very slowly

if u still need it in an hour or so

[craggy minnow]

You can probably do it at the battery cradle anyway though

[smoky ember]

i can help u get it rq

[fresh ocean]

well what map do we recommend?

[craggy minnow]

Any full length really

[smoky ember]

you can get it quickly on carnival

[craggy minnow]

And again, throw two staggered grenades the stun doesn't last as long as the penance timer

[smoky ember]

on the beginning

infinite horde spawns

[craggy minnow]

I think its 40 in 10 seconds but the grenades only stun for 5 so you need 2 to stretch it to like 8 seconds of kills counting

[fresh ocean]

it is which is very annoying amount

every map on carnival has infinite spawns at the start?

yeah i really dont know cause auric for more enemies but those are higher hp enemies

yeah so anything but pox walkers

lol i know like every class is going to have some anti gameplay specific challenge that doesn't encourage you to win or play the game in a reasonable way so is there like anything in existance to just skip challenges like a mod?

[smoky ember]

noh the one that you breach in the start

i don’t remember the name

mercantile?

i think

[fresh ocean]

it would need to be guaranteed pox walkers though

with my luck its like so much everything else

[smoky ember]

noh?

why would it have to be poxwalkers?

did they change that penance or something

[fresh ocean]

no just everything else dies too slow

[smoky ember]

it’s just 40 kills on stunned in 10 seconds

[smoky ember]

poxwalkers and groaners work fine for it

i’m home in like

3 minutes

i’ll help you get it

won’t take long

[fresh ocean]

its just taken me too long to get it on my own

[smoky ember]

it’s alright

you’ll get it tonight

[fresh ocean]

thank you

[smoky ember]

allllll thanks 2 meee

[fresh ocean]

amazing comment and image combo

and yes the breaching charge one does seem good

[smoky ember]

i’m just the funniest girl here it’s okay

[fresh ocean]

Well i can only assume thats true from my severe lack of time here

[smoky ember]

be on in just a sec

fatshark code is in my nickname

[fresh ocean]

oh yeah i didn't actually know how this system worked

[smoky ember]

escape, social, press E

[fresh ocean]

Yeah i found it, mic was blocking that part of the screen

[smoky ember]

i shmee

[fresh ocean]

Is there a channel dedicated to helping people with penances or would this be the spot to ask?

[smoky ember]

here or in a class chat

crashed on launch

idk why

moment please

[fresh ocean]

funny fatshark prank

[smoky ember]

kk

send me an invite

or ur friend code

nvm

[tame anchor]

as it turns out... my game cannot handle havoc past like 22-23

turns into a complete slideshow

[rotund ermine]

crashes?

💀

[austere apex]

This channel's pins are a blessing. Just looking up stuff on Google only gets me info that's 2-4 years out of date depending on what I'm looking for.

[strange thunder]

go on reddit and get info that's not out of date, but wrong

[faint perch]

People who make guides are legends

Even more legendary if they keep them up to date

[tough cape]

is there a tech support channel? Some issue launching darktide

[shadow skiff]

It's basically the forums tbh. Ppl here only can offer suggestions.

[cold moon]

Either option below or ask here:

• https://support.fatshark.se/hc/en-us/requests/new
• https://forums.fatsharkgames.com/c/darktide/technical-issues/93

[tough cape]

thanks. for some reason the launcher refuses to start, and opening the app directly has some login backend error

will check out the fatshark forums

[cold moon]

You play on PC?

https://forums.fatsharkgames.com/t/known-issue-backend-error-after-no-mans-land-update/115566/49

[tough cape]

yep

thanks let me look

nope, not affected

[cold moon]

Unfortunately there is no single answer to login backend error

[tough cape]

yeah. The weird part is that launcher on steam doesn't start

never had that before

[vocal nacelle]

Turn on /off vpn

For backend error

Are you using mods?

[tough cape]

I cycled on/off VPNs, and disabled mods. Still same issue

restarted the PC even. guess I'll try fresh install

[vocal nacelle]

Just reverify from steam first

[cold moon]

If you can access your router's menu, the ports for Darktide are:

• TCP: 27015, 27036
• UDP: 27015, 27031-27036

[tough cape]

thanks. shouldn't be a port blockage issue unless my ISP did something funny. Was able to get online earlier this week.

let me try verify first, then forward ports if still unable to work. thanks

[tough cape]

update: verify found some broken files. Fixed and it can now run. Thanks all!

[halcyon lichen]

My Hivescum will use his stims automatically, no idea where this is originating from. I'll have to check each and every mod.

Oh i have found it, auto broker stim.

[rose hinge]

Yk i just realised

I havent had much issue with plasma gunners recently

Are they just... a normal, okay enemy now?

They feel like just long range shotgunners tbh

[patent jasper]

I mean essentially… I haven’t had many games recently where people even use gold toughness abilities that they even stand out at all

[rose hinge]

Damn

Fs takes way too long to cook but when theyre done it usually ends up okay

[balmy moat]

flashbacks to pre-PGnerf

[rose hinge]

AUGH

I havent been killed by yhem for a while

[keen sonnet]

Damage, overall numbers

It was a lot of tweaks tbh

[rose hinge]

Lore accurate plasgunners

[balmy moat]

fire rate, AND their warning flash was tiny, and their charge to fire sound was mega fuckin quiet

[keen sonnet]

Yeah

They still don't have voicelines right?

[balmy moat]

they do

[keen sonnet]

Callout voice lines?

[balmy moat]

oh, no just gunner

[keen sonnet]

Yeah

[keen flume]

Those have been the funny times

Thankfully it did not took too long to tweak them

[dense sundial]

Wait is toughness regen on curio no longer the meta now? It was a must-have two years ago

[balmy moat]

toughness regen speed only affects coherency regen, which means, when you need it, you dont have it, and when you have it, you dont need it

[dense sundial]

I mean was anything changed about it in the past two years?

[balmy moat]

idk, not that im aware of, other than possibly seeing how it actually worked

ask in psyker chat, six is knowledgeable, he'll answer when he can

[clear plume]

Skill tree changed

Patch 13 made it so every class has so many ways to gain toughness now

[balmy moat]

[clear plume]

And with how much faster pace the game is staying in coherency without being in combat is rarer then before

[dense sundial]

Hmmm thanks

[proper crypt]

I have everything on high. Does anybody know why the texture still look so bad?

[keen flume]

Most likely the game still trying to load textures

It often happens even for some with high specs

[zenith siren]

Holy shit, I was on a break when this was a thing apparently

[balmy moat]

lucky you

[proper crypt]

With a 9070 GT GPU, 32 GB ram and 98003xD CPU? O.o

And after two mortis trials

[keen flume]

Game engine is a spaghetti code

[balmy moat]

did you test relaunching yet?

[zenith siren]

I have a 5080, 7800x3d, and 32 GB of RAM and i promise you the game is at fault

Same CPU but a 4060 8GB

I play max with frame gen and there only few instances at the ship and is really the game itself

[tame anchor]

how are people playing on havoc and having smooth gameplay

once it hits mid H20s for me, the amount of crap on screen causes it to hit like 20 fps

unless im expected to hit H60 for 60 fps

what settings are people using? Im on a 3070

[fickle ether]

If youre able to mod these help aton https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kdarktide/mods/521 https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kdarktide/mods/678

[hazy crag]

i never had crashes as much as I have having hit h20. It gets worse the higher I go

I think its just the game and the nature of whats happening, like you said. Too much on screen

[tame anchor]

ya i dont know how anyone is doing ninja-fu on high havoc

im spazzing out and dying

https://tenor.com/view/running-major-william-cage-edge-of-tomorrow-running-away-omw-gif-11056264198614371067

[balmy moat]

i have a 3070, do h40 just fine in terms of FPS, dunno what all settings you want but here's a solid chunk

[ionic moth]

I know with me personally, there were two optimization settings that both had options varying between "Performance" and "High quality" and if you mixed them in the wrong way it would do that

[tame anchor]

what resolution are you running?

[proper crypt]

I have it set to quality

[balmy moat]

do you have a monitor that goes over 60hz? Ive had some friends who say they wont go back

[tame anchor]

it would appear my solution is low graphics

[shadow skiff]

Pretty sure it's just CPU for most part. At least in my case.

[keen hornet]

Guys why when u crash the bug message u can copy to the clipboard appears After the option to send the message u should copy?

[cold moon]

Yes, copy and paste somewhere to keep like in Windows Notepad if you want to share the information with Fatshark through their forums or a support ticket.

There is another crash log that is created at the time of your incident. The location if using Steam: AppData\Roaming\Fatshark\Darktide\console_logs

[keen hornet]

Ok but i mean if the option to Copy the message appeared before the option to send a message It would be actually useful, otherwise i dont know what to write until i see the bug

[cold moon]

You send the error message for the developers to check what happened with the game, not to help you directly. The copy button after sending the report and the crash log in AppData are for you when you ask for help in the Fatshark forums or create a support ticket.

[keen hornet]

Yes but i dont know what happened with the game cus that appears later

[cold moon]

Okay you ask for help when you do not know.

No one can directly see what happened, yes?

[keen hornet]

In not asking for help personaly i want to send the program problema so the devs knows the game doesnt work on that specificay

[cold moon]

You click on the Send button that appeared before asking you to Copy?

For the small window after Darktide crashed

Another way to help the developers is to post your crash log from the AppData location on your PC to the Fatshark Forums - Technical Issues.

[balmy moat]

...

they are confused as to why the "paste your issue here to send to fatshark" box appears, then you get the crashlog after you close that one.

the answer, is its fatshark. they dont know what they're doing half the time

they SHOULD be reversed, OR the box for "why did you crash?" needs to be removed instead of appearing before the crashlog

[thick acorn]

do i need to actually pickup the grim/tomes to get points on this or just finish maps that HAVE them?

[paper zenith]

Pretty sure that penance is for modifiers like pox gas, hounds, hi-intensity, etc

[keen flume]

That penance only applies to actual mission modifiers

There's the own grim and scriptures collected penances

[fresh ocean]

does this game speed enemies up when you aren't looking at them? had some crushers who caught up to me after i used my zealot charge which made kind of no sense

[clear plume]

no they dont

but have have a way to stay with you

its called the slot system

let me see if there is a video explaining it

[fresh ocean]

i mean i know the slot system

[clear plume]

its how both tide games work with combat

[fresh ocean]

but that shouldn't speed things up?

[clear plume]

it can

[fresh ocean]

oh boo

[clear plume]

some attack go towards you if they are slotted

like walking overheads from maulers and crushers

[fresh ocean]

well thats what hit me

even though i charged on an enemy

so literally no way to avoid that other than looking and dodging

cause if the sound system worked

yeah....

wouldn't of even needed to look

[tame anchor]

how many times do you need to reset the damn thing on gloriana?

[balmy moat]

3 max

one for each row

but ideally you get them before it shuts off

however thats not always the safest option

[tame anchor]

ah, how much more hp does nurgle blessing huave

[balmy moat]

that i'm not sure on, i dont play with it enough to know more than, it makes them stagger immune

ainz was typing here a short bit ago, perhaps he can answer if he peeks back

playing an auric maelstrom with specialist waves and nurgle blessing on that map... surprisingly hard

has anyone else been having problems trying to get into the servers and lag?

[tame anchor]

its been dodgy

is it just me or is lights out kinda... screw you

like incredibly unfair

ive beaten it a handful of times but on some maps like torrent, its like where am i even walking

and then sometimes you get this

[clear plume]

it tests your map knowledge but isnt unfair

the game has a built in flashlight that every chracter has

[tame anchor]

to throw in a bnch of snipers on top

[clear plume]

not to mention some guns with more flashlights

snipers have a highly visable lazer telling you where they are

and if you tag them they highlight them so they are way easier to see

[tame anchor]

its more like you are dancing around and dodging their shots and then you fall off an edge

[clear plume]

again, testing map knowledge

it harder for people with less knowledge of maps

[tame anchor]

i guess im also playing the one where monstrosities spawn all the time

so you are constantly flung off course

[clear plume]

A-I-II

yeah I know

my fav mission besides havoc

its a good test

how to manage multiple bosses and less vision

[tame anchor]

i only like it when you get extra frag bombs

and then all is forgiven

[tame anchor]

bomber fire has this weird aimpunch effect where it makes it hard to move out

any way to get around that?

[lost smelt]

Bonesaw is bad? I almost never see anyone use it, like compared to crowbar which are both hive scum exclusives

[tame anchor]

i didnt realize you can get lowered a havoc rank by losing a lower ranked mission

[strange thunder]

it is slow, awful cleave, and brittleness is hardly worth it

[balmy moat]

you cant

[languid jewel]

Its not bad no.

Can be pretty powerfull.

[lament parrot]

Anyone else still looking to work on Dream Team? Randoms are impossibly frustrating

[nocturne mist]

is there a place for trying to get true surv?

or is that too high of a task?

[dusty aurora]

so as someone who doesn‘t understand how the AI director works, what does it do when a team is move too slowly through a level ? does it keep spawning mpre enemies ? not accounting for havoc ofc

[balmy moat]

would be the appropriate LFG channel for your region

[balmy moat]

spawns more enemies, yeah, more specials as well

horde waves spawn every 5 minutes or so iirc

[dusty aurora]

at lower difficulties it would be much less severe yes ?

[balmy moat]

yes

the horde waves are much smaller the lower the difficulty

[clear plume]

It might spawn a few special and a poxwalker horde

But the director can run out of enemies to spawn if you stay in the same spot

It all depends on how much progression you are making

https://old.reddit.com/r/DarkTide/comments/1mf1osk/the_specials_of_darktide_and_their_inner_workings/

This posts explains the code of specialist spawnings

And if you need in game examples

https://youtu.be/dBvPhRU9_Z4?si=km1YUuUzxIVJhUYP

Here is my havoc 40 solo

You can skip to the end of horde fights and you'll notice it's very quiet

Until I walk forwards

then you got bugged

because thats not how it works

you derank after 3 losses at your rank or higher

Anyone got any tips on why the game may be crashing. Engine error crash. Followed a few of the steps on the resolution page and some of them dont apply. I have reinstalled drivers and downgraded to a supposed more stable one but still crashing, disabled portrait rendering, lowered worker thread count. mid horde the gpu is only at 60c.

What was the penance you needed? My game crashed before I could read your message

[balmy moat]

i dont need any, was gonna come help this soul above

[glacial ruin]

Not sure if this is the right channel for this, but I would like some help with a problem I'm having. When I launch Darktide on steam, the launcher works perfectly fine, but when I hit the start button and it begins loading the actual game, it gets stuck on the black loading screen and if I click the application stops responding and I need to stop the game through steam. Any tips?

[shadow skiff]

Already restarted PC, right? And I don't mean shut down since unless you have it set to fully do so each time, it's not a full shut down.

[glacial ruin]

Yeah did that

[shadow skiff]

Also tried verifying, I guess. Did you upgrade/downgrade your drivers as well? And I assume try booting without mods if modded just to rule it out?

[glacial ruin]

I have never modded the game and I updated all my drivers when trying to fix Helldivers 2 which also doesn't work xD

[shadow skiff]

Same engine btw.

[glacial ruin]

Oh thats wonderful

So it might be the same issue affecting both games then?

[shadow skiff]

Yep. Might be.

[glacial ruin]

Crap

[shadow skiff]

If you have AMD GPU as well.

Even more issues known.

[glacial ruin]

Whatever I have, it IS AMD, but I have integrated graphics, not a dedicated GPU

[shadow skiff]

Oh, that's the issue. You need a GPU for them.

[glacial ruin]

Well they worked before sooo

I dunno what to say

First Helldivers 2 worked, then it didn't, then Darktide worked, then both worked, then Helldivers 2 broke, and Darktide followed

[shadow skiff]

Could be updates. The game got literally 0 optimisations for a year now.

Steadily worse performance since last Christmas.

[umbral pond]

maybe install optimization mods or something IDK

do those exist?

[shadow skiff]

If you want plasticine mobs, yes.

Extreme low poly.

[glacial ruin]

Honestly I don't even care at this point

If it makes the game work, I WILL play Warhammer 40,000: DarkCraft

[umbral pond]

XD Plasticine
what if I want Play-Do

[shadow skiff]

Aren't they the same?

[umbral pond]

IDFK

[glacial ruin]

They are
one's british and one's american

i think

[umbral pond]

wait lemme ask the Ogryn channel they should know

[fossil holly]

where is the smelter complex HL-17-36 mission? I can't find it

[umbral pond]

sometimes it just ain't there on your current difficulty

[keen flume]

Mission board rotation

There's the tertium campaign in which you can queue for it though

[fossil holly]

why can't I find it there :[

probably just blind

[fossil holly]

I only see manufactory

I don't see smelter complex

[balmy moat]

thats sadly because its not there, it's not actually part of any campaign so far

you will have to wait for it to rotate in

[keen flume]

huh, could have swear it was on the campaign

thats weird

[balmy moat]

it isnt, i doublechecked and triplechecked just now to confirm

[keen flume]

not sure why it is not included for the main campaign

[fossil holly]

at least it's can be playable, thought it was removed.

[balmy moat]

yeah, dw

it IS odd though, they shoehorned rolling steel into a second campaign but didnt know what do to with smelter

actually i

i dont think power matrix is there either

it isnt

so both manufactory repair missions arent present in a campaign

the chasm logistratum raid isnt a campaign either

[keen flume]

really awkward why none of those have been included

Pretty sure those missions were very important to the narrative of tertium including the smelter

Unless they are to think of adding a new campaign for Hadron be the main lead

[rigid wasp]

Am I doing something wrong because I got level 25 talent point for Arbitrator and I can spend it, but when I close the menu and come back into the talents section, it’s un-spent. This also has been happening with the Autopistol mastery for months. Is it just a bug or do I need to do something?

[strange thunder]

it's a bug across several classes

or at least the mastery one is

[rigid wasp]

Is there something I can do to fix it?

[strange thunder]

I don't know, I've never had it

[rigid wasp]

Damn. Thank you though

[fickle ether]

Sometimes the class loadout slot gets bugged you can normally fix it by deleting the bugged one and making a new loadout. The autopistol is a known bug and will get fixed at some point.

[thick acorn]

is the spawn bug/glitch on the Mercantile HL-70-04 final area a known thing? i played with 2 guys who jumped on the pipes to the right side of the opening gate and they just bugged out enemy spawns. nothing spawned until they left that area

[clear plume]

yes its known

when enemies target players in a non pathable location they stand still and dont move

that spot is just an easy example to see

its an exploit

[thick acorn]

seems fun

[tame anchor]

if you are down to 3 party people and enter a new area, and twins spawn in with a horde+boss, is it better to rush for rescue if its not too far?

[clear plume]

Depends on a lot of things

[tame anchor]

is a 3 playerfight a bad matchup?

[clear plume]

Progressing further into the map will only spawn more enemies and potential boss triggers

It's always best to stay and backup killing what you have

But again this is very context heavy

The amount of players doesn't matter

It's what tools and skills you have

1 player is enough to solo H40

But out of the people alive, are they good enough to live without the 4th? Is the 4th the boss damage?

[tame anchor]

does havoc crowd adjust to player count?

[clear plume]

No

[frosty charm]

Its actually the opposite of fun - I hate when ppl do it as it is very boring

[umbral pond]

What mod was this?

[shadow skiff]

Ask Ainz tbh. He once used it and showed us a pic of a dog.

do I just ping them all

is it @clear plume or @vestal dust

[vestal dust]

[umbral pond]

wait what does Hadron do in the server

[patent jasper]

At the very least she insta deletes masked links

maybe other automod stuff

[umbral pond]

cool

can she remotely bless my friend's computer to make it run the game

[patent jasper]

she can pray it’s machine spirit has the strength of will to

@clear plume This one.

[eternal phoenix]

Hey I'm pretty new to the game itself. And I didn't want to break any rules right off the bat. So how would you guys recommend me wording a group to see if they'd be willing to show me the ropes in the LFG chat

[clear plume]

I don't use graphic mods, must've been someone else

[clear plume]

" (voice channel link) LFG (#of players you need) (difficulty/what mission you are doing) "

Like this

https://discord.com/channels/727074276724965407/1162146315392786612 LFG 3 auric damnation

But it's not that strict there isn't a rule if you get it wrong

Just say "new player looking to learn/play lower difficulty"

[shadow skiff]

Oh. I might be confused then. I just remember you were around when it was talked about ages ago.

[eternal phoenix]

I have a question just because I'm new to the game and wanted some advice about the armory exchange

I am running off of a build that I found online just because I'm still new to the game by the way.

But if I find an item in the shop that is one of the weapons that has the name I'm looking for. But it is anointed instead of transcendent should I buy it? I didn't know if you upgraded them later to be transcendent or if you have to get them from drops from higher difficulty

[pastel forge]

You can upgrade their rarity

As well as raise their rating and swap the perks/blessings/mark

The only thing that matters is the stat distribution

[eternal phoenix]

Okay so should I just wait till level 30 before I start buying stuff

[clear plume]

yeah

[thick acorn]

any mods having issues since the latest update?

[humble jacinth]

[hushed mauve]

i am having trouble with managing poxbursters and looking for guidance to improve how to handle them.
my way at the moment is this:
Shove them and quickly dodge backwards, if possible twice.
however this feels incredibly luck based and has kind of a 50/50 success quota for me

[pastel forge]

dodgeslide

try to shove them as early as possible

the range of the shoves are deceptively long

[hushed mauve]

dodgeslide meanign dodge then slide?

[pastel forge]

ye

[hushed mauve]

i will tyr that, thanks ^^

karkin poxbursters are my achilles heel atm

[smoky ember]

wait until they’re jumping, then push and dodge backwards

dodge sliding gives u a bit more safety in case they’re closer, but you don’t usually need to

note that bursters have a larger explosion radius if they are either killed or blow themselves up, but a smaller one if they are pushed then blow up

[crimson kettle]

hello, is there a way to keep the crosshair HUD settings stay after updates? I went to play after the recent update and my entire HUD got reset, I really hate doing it every time the game updates

I did save the crosshair HUD folder with my settings on my desktop, but after dragging it back in the settings still seem to be overwritten

[hushed mauve]

that last bit is crucial information that i lacked and already helped me in my last auric mission ^^

i just loaded into game and it was vanilla

[balmy moat]

oh

go into the game files and reactivate them

[vale sail]

reactivate?

[balmy moat]

you have to run the toggle each patch

[vale sail]

oh shit

[balmy moat]

[left prairie]

i made my 5th character and i skipped the campaign and got them to level 30 why cant i access aruric difficlty on them?

[balmy moat]

gotta go through the difficulty scaling process with all new characters

[left prairie]

i did that i got to damnation where do i get access to aruric because i really dont like this new system last new charecter i make

[cold moon]

Is the progress bar under "Damnation" filled up all the way in the mission board?

A screenshot can help

[dense tulip]

an important titbit to add is that when the burster lunges at you, your shoves work farther against him specifically. Same thing applies to the pox hounds during their respective lunges at you. Mind, it's only farther for the person they're targeting, not everyone else. And you don't even have to look at them when you shove, since shoves are omnidirectional. They don't work as well the closer the enemy is to your back, but when lunging, burster or hound need much less stagger to be, well, staggered, so it works

[balmy moat]

the downside is, when the burster isnt targeting you but the person right next to you, or when the burster flat out decides "nah"

[dense tulip]

I love when they just decide to change directions, funniest shit

[balmy moat]

its kinda funny, but its also real frustrating when they just refuse to be pushed

[dense tulip]

aye

[balmy moat]

them floating around a wall tho is indeed real goofy

[sullen tundra]

which one

[tame coyote]

Scoreboard with ovenproofs community patch

[balmy moat]

crash when someone picks up ammo, or a different issue?

[tame coyote]

different

taking sceenshots give me a moment

[strange thunder]

scoreboard needs an unofficial fix to work

[balmy moat]

thats why i asked about the ammo crash

but thats not the issue, so

[tame coyote]

error code on startup, and the scoreboard goes off the screen

[strange thunder]

do you have the auto mod loader?

[balmy moat]

scoreboard going off screen is due to too many categories

[honest linden]

file to toggle mods isnt working

[balmy moat]

most of OG scoreboards stuff is inaccurate, so turn off anything SB has that ovenproof also has

[strange thunder]

since recently or?

[honest linden]

Since update

[strange thunder]

I toggled it fine after the patch yesterday

you need to update DML

after big updates

[tame coyote]

uh, I got other mods working fine, just scroeboard is giveing me grief

[balmy moat]

the other person, not you

[strange thunder]

yeah not the scoreboard issue

[vocal nacelle]

too many stats, reduce it/ turn couple stats off

[balmy moat]

yeah, turn off everything OG SB has that ovenproof covers

it feels like the name in the error code is incorrect

[tame coyote]

oh, I think i might know why its throwing an error, let me check

[balmy moat]

mine is just called ovenproof_scoreboard_plugin

and i dont have the original ovenproof

since it isnt needed anymore

[honest linden]

Darktide Mod Loader?

Just tried reinstalling it, was already uptodate

Still same error msg

[tame coyote]

ok, going to try it

ok, startup error is gone, @balmy moat was correct, I had an extra line with a different name in the mod loader

going to run a quick train mission to see if the board is of reasonable size now

[balmy moat]

uh

you can also just pop into the psykanium

[tame coyote]

well, damn, too late

[balmy moat]

lol

[keen flume]

Holy stats LMAO

[strange thunder]

did you update darktide mod framework too?

[honest linden]

Tried now reinstalling it too

Same issue

[tame coyote]

its better

[balmy moat]

time to just tweak it bit by bit to your liking now

[tame coyote]

Ok, thank you, I didnt realize it was the old scoreboard causing the problem, So i had diabled all the stuff on ovenproofs, makes a lot of sense now, thanks

mod bat never worked, but mods started working 🤷‍♂️

But now second mission i get running out of memory error and lost that one

[pastel kayak]

Is there an optimal weapon combo guide for Darktide similar to this Vermintide 2 one?

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1821186836

[stiff oxide]

Dumb question but where do we find out what alternate fire does for weapons? Like I had a shotgun and it seems to load in a special shell but I have no clue what it actually does

[main kindle]

I mean shoot it and find out?

[vocal nacelle]

check each class pin

[balmy moat]

select the weapon, go to inspect, then it says on the top right corner

[stiff oxide]

Thank you!

[stiff oxide]

I mean in this case it was just additional stagger there isn't a particularly easy way to figure that out visually, but 'thanks' too

[void forge]

But none of the special shells are just extra stagger

[balmy moat]

visually, the slug shot is a stagger

from the combat shotgun

but its high damage as well

[void forge]

Sure, if you're blind

Like if it was just extra stagger there would be no need to change the crosshair

[balmy moat]

to someone without an HP bar to see... is this not a stagger shot

i was guessing its this gun they were talking about, and im almost willing to bet on it

they mightve tested in a live match rather than psykhanium as well

[void forge]

Spread pattern crosshair>very tight crosshair and also you are just shooting at one enemy at a time.

[balmy moat]

and?

visually, is it not a stagger shot?

visually, it staggers

[void forge]

Common sense from other games says shotguns hit a bunch of enemies at once in a spread, not like a slug hitting one enemy at a time

Atleast in my opinion

[balmy moat]

but this... this IS a single target shot

its a slug

[void forge]

Yes I get that

But he said the words "just extra stagger" when it clearly changes the entire way the weapon functions

[balmy moat]

there is this one that just changes spread and has stagger

[stiff oxide]

Im new to the game and haven't memorized the exact sizes of the crosshairs, and it's hard to figure that shit out in heat of the moment when you barely understand what stagger is 😭 It's the help channel, I obviously don't know all the details, figured this was the place to ask

[balmy moat]

it is, yeah

dont worry about it, you did nothin wrong here

[stiff oxide]

Yeah I know, I just like giving clowns shit for their bad attitudes

I appreciate you helping me though Hexis ❤️

[void forge]

Actually it also has different cleave and slightly different damage falloff

And the special also has less Crit chance for some reason

[balmy moat]

that requires beyond surface level knowledge to know, as is most of weapon quirks

[rapid locust]

Is there any way to play this game completely solo for this penance?

[pastel forge]

As is most of the game

[pastel forge]

Mods

[rapid locust]

okay, doing it this way will still count for the penance right?

[pastel forge]

I think so?

[inner pier]

Apologies if this is a stupid question, but is there a place, whether in-game or a third-party resource, that describes what each of the various mission circumstances / modifiers do in gameplay terms? For example, I'll see the Contaminated Stimms circumstance, which is described as,

"Reports indicate that local forces are under the influence of the traitors' tainted stimms."

I'm still new to the game, so I don't quite know what to expect on the mission itself.

[vocal nacelle]

new event explanation ^

[keen flume]

Keep playing on malice and pray you get teammates don't fail

That's how I done it and took too long

[rapid locust]

yeah I would just matchmake but I can't keep randoms alive and need 3 people otherwise :/

or if that mod works idk, I'll have to find it

[void forge]

simply let them die and do the rest of the mission yourself

[rapid locust]

oh true, for some reason I read it as nobody going down

nvm easy then

Game has full cross play

[rancid raft]

Okay, thank you

[clear plume]

Yeah, full crossplay

[keen flume]

If you wish to play with people or friends from other platforms on party, there's the in-game friend system

[rose hinge]

this video is a flashbang

[tame coyote]

Just run the train mission over and over, it takes 10 min.

Thats how I got it

[balmy moat]

the downside is, teammates

make sure you've got at least one competent buddy

[tame coyote]

Yea, but if youre kitted out even the bots can get you through

[balmy moat]

bots dont push bursters 🙃

bad teammates SHOOT them

near you

[tame coyote]

Bursters arent as common on that difficulty

Oh, let me rephrase, run train mission on that difficulty over and over

[rapid locust]

Good shout that’s what I’ll do ty

[tame coyote]

Just be careful with the boss at the end, he can toss you around

[azure pike]

its ok to shoot bursters at a distance

but not in your face

[hushed mauve]

is it just me or do the stims barely help against the gas?

also, where can i check my event progress?

[keen flume]

Press tab

[hushed mauve]

ohhhhhh i did not know that was a thing xD

[shadow skiff]

It's not 100% resist. More like 10-20%.

The 100% is more like lvl of buff you got.

[keen flume]

it is the same window prompt where you see your weekly challenges

[hushed mauve]

i am having a super hard time in the current event missions and they are not really fun to me tbh

[shadow skiff]

Treat it like 10 stacks.

[hushed mauve]

i always check melk for those xD

[shadow skiff]

Pay for Arby, run rebreather.

That's the easiest way lul.

[keen flume]

yeah it is that, theres additional tab

that you press E to swap

[balmy moat]

the stims also seem to have a lingering effect

[hushed mauve]

thanks

[hushed mauve]

you are kidding, right? arby has a thign against that?

[balmy moat]

it does

hive scum does as well

[shadow skiff]

70% fart gas resist.

[hushed mauve]

wow...

[balmy moat]

hive scum can give the whole team corruption immunity

[shadow skiff]

You can casually sprint in gas.

[hushed mauve]

i love my psyker and usually run auric no problems btu this event gas ...

[balmy moat]

you can casually chill in it

[shadow skiff]

Before stimms buffs.

[hushed mauve]

i die liek a fly xD

boy oh boy xD

[balmy moat]

stims are basically the same as havocs

[hushed mauve]

paid cheats xD

[balmy moat]

not new

[hushed mauve]

guess thats one way to sell dlc's xD

[shadow skiff]

It was sold with rotten. So inf melee farts.

[balmy moat]

rotten armour introduced to havoc, same time as arby released.
arby can keep an armour blob staggerlocked indefinitely, and use the dog to pin the also new unkillable unstaggerable ragers that came with stims

[hushed mauve]

holy sheet

[balmy moat]

blight and armour comes back when scum releases with corruption immunity and very very strong DoT, which is one of the only damage types that rot isnt protected against

granted, psyker does this too, but with scum, 5 needler shots gets you to max stacks

while with psyker it takes a ton of work, and doing things in the right order

[keen flume]

Was it not before?

[balmy moat]

wdym

rot armour?

[keen flume]

Yes

for havoc

[balmy moat]

it was an event before arby

[shadow skiff]

The event? Released with arby on menu.

[keen flume]

Oh wait I am stupid I just remembered that arbites was Q2 update

[shadow skiff]

I know cos I did it with arby.

[balmy moat]

ah event and THEN havoc

[keen flume]

Rot armor event was actually fun

[balmy moat]

it WAS

[keen flume]

Then it got carried over havoc

[shadow skiff]

Because you used to be able to do full melee damage.

[balmy moat]

its still ok, but you NEED someone who can deal with the absolute spam

and yeah

[shadow skiff]

It only had crazy dr for ranged.

Though they messed up and the mobs are like. Faster.

[balmy moat]

with rot you need an arby, or two, and/or an inferno shriek psyker who knows what they're doing

or yknow, a vet with field improv and a scum with rockets

[hushed mauve]

so i am not imagining ragers being harder to kill in event missions?

[balmy moat]

stims do different things

[keen flume]

Stimmed ragers are nightmare

[shadow skiff]

If eyes are blue/green, normal.

[keen flume]

Blue stim in particular

[hushed mauve]

sometimes feels like they oneshot me in auric

[shadow skiff]

Yellow and red is run the kark away or nuke with anything.

[vocal nacelle]

blue eyes rager have 60%? DR

[shadow skiff]

Red backstab? Normal.

[hushed mauve]

yeh

[shadow skiff]

Just see them as fast crushers.

[hushed mauve]

= pray to the Emperor, saint messelina and hope mommy Celestine comes to save me while i run away as fast as karkin possible?

[shadow skiff]

Might lead to a certain questionably gae inquisitor showing up though.

[hushed mauve]

fair

[shadow skiff]

But yeah, you see red/yellow, just nuke from orbit as fast as possible.

[rose hinge]

They should really really let you hold down the quick knife key to let you aim it

Maybe im missing something but why not

[paper zenith]

Zealot knives?

[rose hinge]

Yes

[smoky ember]

because making skill shots with them r very fun

[rose hinge]

Well like

Hold down v to aim, but if you just tap v it throws it

Yk?

[smoky ember]

yah

[void forge]

make ogryn rock a quickthrow like the knives while we're at it

[thick acorn]

anyone else having issues with insane rubberbanding?

like instead of disconnecting, the game just brings you back where you were 30 secs ago

[shadow skiff]

High ping? Pretty normal. Heard US East servers might be spicy to ppl there even.

[paper zenith]

I have mine bound to mouse 4 so I can aim and shoot at the same time. Works pretty well

[rose hinge]

Hmmm

Would this work chat

I thought they had an arc to them

[paper zenith]

They do, but it essentially makes the throwing daggers behave more like your ranged option rather than a grenade

[smoky ember]

they do but you can learn it

i have mine on mouse 4 as well

with time and practice you’ll get really good with them

i have clips of me hitting really long knives

out to lil

like

64 meters

[fresh ocean]

does the event say anything about the stim perma buff?

[rose hinge]

ohh

[smoky ember]

https://medal.tv/games/warhammer-40000-darktide/clips/iKFJAvER879odvuTE

you get a feel for it

[rose hinge]

wowie

good job

[smoky ember]

i have a lot of those

i heart tknives

they’re my favorite blitz in the game

[rose hinge]

i can deffo see why theyre just difficult for mees

[errant iris]

Yo im tryna do the malleus monstrous penance, but I don’t have a squad, anyone done to join up?

[balmy moat]

i can help

[tame anchor]

joined a havoc party, first the guy gets really snooty about who to let play (no ogryns or arbs) - this was C19

then our 4th crashes so it was 3 players

and he proceeds to get completely drunk and is like.... barely hanging on

we almost won, but by the time we got to twins it was like 2.5 players left cause he was barely sentient - but at least he went from toxic to "I LOVE YOU GUYS"

moral of the story is: the real havoc are the friends you make along the way

[crimson fox]

Is anyone able to help me get from Havoc 24 to 25? Im trying to get this cosmetic piece at Havoc 25 and I am having trouble.

[summer forum]

Stupid question but when it comes to curios, what's the health vs toughness consensus? If it's class dependant this is ranged veteran.

[zealous dome]

Class/build dependant
But it's recommended to get to 201 HP to prevent dying to 2 Poxbursters
If you already have 200 HP
Just go toughness

There's a popular zealot build atm about health tanking

Called Fatmangus

Also having 200 HP and 1 sniper res

Allows you to survive 2 sniper shots

[summer forum]

I have taken sniper res's since I seem to be the one most frequently tasked with killing them and they often enough end up getting a shot off on me.

But before now I was rocking two toughness curious and a wound with various resistances applied just off of gut feeling of usefulness. But after getting my ass caved in I figured I'd see what the actual meta consensus was.

[vapid flax]

How do you do the movement tech with the combat blade and duelling sword where people slide and attack i cant get it to work

[smoky ember]

sprint with a heavy charged, and when right before the attack flies, slide

[vapid flax]

Ill give it a try thanks

[sudden bolt]

[sudden bolt]

[sudden bolt]

[craggy minnow]

You might have to be there from the start? Not sure

[hearty vortex]

Does anyone know whats the best/easiest Blitz to use with disrupt destiny to get the Defy Fate Penance for the Psyker? (maintain 15 stacks or more of disrupt destiny for a total of 1800 seconds)
-or does anyone have any general advice for using disrupt destiny?

[clear plume]

assail or gun

[steep spruce]

wanting to complete just a flesh wound penance and need someone to start a private game

[hearty vortex]

ok, tysm

[blazing oasis]

Is Show Crit Chance mod busted for anyone else or is it a personal problem

[polar forum]

it works for me

[tame anchor]

ive been finding twins fights to go either really easy or full wipe

they seem to spawn in a lot when things are already bad

[umbral pond]

No way it's Cyn "Solver of the Absolute Fabric" Murder Drones

[smoky ember]

my whole account used to be cyn themed

cyn is such a cool villain

if only murder drones wasn’t dogshit

i love it but damn
