Most people take surv because it's HIS ONLY GOOD AURA
Yeah
3% damage and 5% move speed is CUTE in comparison
Bro have you seen my awesome 3% damage aura build
3% doesnt matter most of the time
we're at a point where its affecting other class balance
Ogryn guns are insane with Survivalist
The instances where it actually affect hits to kill happen once in a blue moon
Also 5% speed aura is huuuuge
there's no thought to picking it. there's no opportunity cost. It's just straight up the best aura in the game for everyone in the party save staff psykers
it doesn't have nearly as much impact as survivalist does though
Huuuuuge
buff other auras, replace survivalist with something good, fix actual ammo economy in game
make players actually think about what they want to use their gun on rather than this Walking forward simulator we have now
Wouldn’t make much sense from a lore and game perspective. Astartes are supposed to be the best of the best. While the average vet player can barely handle their own in melee
Surv is not that strong, its strong yeah, but only by virtue of the other two being goddamn useless
Replace it with the ability to spawn barrels
But not so strong as destroying game balance
guys how many darktide hours until i stop being ass
Infinite
the average player themselves are in heresy these days
i keep getting carried on damnation lmao
2 hours
i feel so bad getting clapped and having to get revived lmfao
it is that strong, it means you can ignore ammo economy. and it absolutely is affecting game balance. If I'm a ripper or kickback ogryn it means I can fire my gun all game without thinking about whether I should or not
learn melee by looking for close engagements
dodge and block/push when needed
It is not, im a ripper ogryn and I could have 2 surv vets and still have to worry somewhat about blasting all my ammo
so just practice and get better instincts?
yer
Ye basically
at least i have vet shout so i feel like im contributing
Skill comes with pratice
i have a game recorded as me on Ogryn on HISG with a survivalist vet in the party, and all I do is shoot my ripper
non stop
with fire ammo
don't be like the lasgun psyker in my last match who got beat to death by 1 trash mob because he wanted to keep shooting instead of defending himself in melee
so, you definitely can do it
pour one out for that homie
what % would that aura have to be for people to acknowledge its existence?
Huuuuuge
mfw surivalist giving me one extra plasma rifle shot equaling to 4000 dammage charge is giving me more than an 3% dammage boost.
The damage aura's biggest effect is saving me talent points.
my thing rn is getting oneshot by crusher/mauler since i dont dodge fast enough
happens to everyone
Once you nail the timing they’re basically walking memes
Dodge sideways
sometimes with them its a crap shoot
Do not dodge backwards vs crusher
They always inch a bit forward at the end of the animation
Big Hammer Big Reach
Vs rager it’s reversed, always dodge backwards
man even then I always get hit by the buggers
my solution so far is focusing on them and trying to stagger them with shovel
Shovel isnt good at staggering
with the single target attack*
Rager combos have some lock on. Gotta get distance
Maybe time it as well, they can somewhat change direction during upswing but it’s locked it place right before they swing down
Kill them 
krak granade moment
Hope your team know what to do
Lmao
pop infil/shout and run ^^
if you're up against 5 ragers point blank then fading is a perfectly reasonably plan for a Veteran
11 Views. Watch crusher dance and millions of other Warhammer 40,000: Darktide videos on Medal, the #1 Game Clip Platform.
whats the strat when you're in a mob of like 30 backed up against a wall and a bomber/tox flamer eyeballs you
You fkin throw hands that’s what you do
cause i usually get fked up when the tox flamer wipes out my shout toughness and get instantly mobbed

Accept your fate
throw grendes everywhere
vibes
Grenades are your get out of joil for free card
i guess something i need to work on is positioning
krak will help out with mobs too?
Cut your way through to the flamer or shoot him after making a second of space
Fight like hell, even if you fall down
use VoC/grenades and shoot the flamer before he can start flaming you
Only in death, does duty end
less than frag but they will
Ogryn nuke nade is so good in that specific situation
glib answers aside, sometimes fighting as hard as you can and simply surviving as long as possible is just the right answer.
sometimes you lasting an extra 5-6 seconds is enough time for your team mates to pull something off.
Yeah I think survive and coordinate with your team to take down one by one is your best bet
Use tag
If your entire team is dead and the horde is on you, though. Go down swinging.
you don't always have all the answers solo. tag priorities, focus on staying alive, go down swinging and it'll work out more often than not.
I once throw an ogryn grenade when we were pushed back against the wall and my bomb fell off the edge

Real Ogryn momment
F
or if veteran has the voice of command, can stagger stuff give breathign space and replentish toughness so you can run in there again
Anyone else been playing with the comat shotguns?
As long as there isn’t a gunner or sniper, a well timed shout can guarantee a revive
Incendiary is good
wish I saw more of these ogryns, love their voicelines
or have revive perk too xD
Since incendiary shells also have piercing
I've been rocking the one with the slug, one tapping big bois. Is the incendiary round betteR?
add clear bassically
Incendiary is better at crowd control
very different gun
Slug is good but if youre gonna play slug why not just use revolver
Shotgun go WHA WHA WHA WHA
agri is a better sniper rifle and has more backup rounds
Yeah slug was my main gun until I joined the church of revolver#
Slug normal shot deal not great damage
The revive perk can be good but I think you’re better off having the normal cooldown and normal stagger radius to prevent downs, it’s made to spam
are you level 30? if so, try getting actually high-score gear. it improved my performance at least by 80%
ye am lvl 30
i waited far too long with crafting
most my gear circling 500 tho
I'm waiting for the double barrel shotty to be added
I've got a nearly perfect slug shotty. 80 dmg, 80 knock, 80 mob
with part 2 in december (lol)
Different playstyle
how so?
With the Agri shotgun you're basically still a marksman. You can take shots at range the other shotguns can only hope to one or two tap
incendiary is more for groups since it spreads out damage more, especially against groups of elites/specials
The Kantrael is, "I dont want to see this horde anymore"
you play like a normal shotgun still, while the agri is terrible as a normal shotgun
It does very well for specials point blank
which is exactly how i play it lol
the angri has a low hipfire spread but it does crap damage, it's made for headshots but the ADS is better for headshots too since it has more finesse
The special shell can stun Bulwark shields all the time
I would kind of like it if the special ammo on shotguns were a toggle, like you press the special button and every shot you fire becomes a special shot but each shot like 3 shells
I get it.
Have you tried revolver at all?
So one slug, reload slug, one to the head
That's a lot of fun
Never used it.
You can even knock Crushers onto their ass with headshots
something about slug shotgun hits differently comparedto the revolver, even if I'd rate the revolver higher
Try it! It's almost like having 5 slugs loaded. Almost
Gives me the same feeling as Agri
I think it has something to do with just enough breakpoint for being comfy to use on shooters. But a healthy 11-13 round magazine
You can do some good work room clearing
except I found that not using the slug is kind of pointless, it feels bad as a normal shotgun
A lot more ammo efficient than the revolver too, a single ammo tin gives 16 rounds back
The big bag is a good 40+
Nah, you're not supposed to hip fire into hordes with it
Gotta pretend it's like a lever action rifle
I think it's kind of an even trade-off with the lack of pen the shotty has
well it was before the ammo buff
i guess that is also a factor, you have to do the special reload after every shot but you get way more shots
At short to medium range the pellet shot will one tap any lesser ranged enemies to the chest
I wish they gave us one with the slug as the main ammo
any of you guys main mg iv btw
oof only 5 rounds though?
You have options is what makes it nice
or main helbore
It pain
The moment you're forced into close range the firepower drops off badly
yep, gotta make do. They pen like crazy though, through a friendly Ogryn even.
would it ever be possible to get a ranged weapons with duel ammo? Like a rifle with a grenade launcher would be the basic option but I feel like that wouldn't really work ammo wise
man why so little plasteel and so much diamantine
because alot of low tier upgrading costs more plasteel than dia
Being able to still one tap a sniper at 60 meters with the Agri pellets is such a vibe
like the special button switches between both weapons and picking up ammo applies it to both of them but they have a reduced ammo cap to compensate
hell u dont even see dia till u get to upgrading purples
ik, but its stupid, you never use up the masses of diamantine you collect
wish I could turn it to plasteel in a 3:1 rato or something
tell me bout it, all sorts of lads including me that have played for a while
have that issue
of too much dia, not enough plasteel
I have been playing for fairly little, still have 4.5k diamantine sitting in there
meanwhile plasteel
66
my ratio a bit worse XD
it is what it is, refining and upgrading is some costly work
and will be for a while cuz I need to finish veteran
maybe diamantine could be specific to refining or reblessing
that would be nice too
would have a use
although doesn't solve plasteel issue really xd
Most agree on diamantine to plasteel conversion mechanic
we should really get a small amount of bia and plas everytime we scrap a gun
orr
we could have it so when you earn a blessing, when you got to earn the same blessing again, it coverts into mats for you
i have like 50k diamantine
That way it would encourage us to farm the whole arsenal for blessings
and the obviously in 2-3 years just lock a simpler way to get mat
Who even knows what cockamamie scheme they have to complete crafting (e.g. make stats above 80 obtainable). I bet it'll be absolutely terrible, then after a months-long deluge of criticism they will grudgingly make it slightly less bad
Good thing the gameplay is good because this has been the pattern for all 3 Tide games running
the thing is they had a working system, and they went backwards in so many ways from VT2
how bad does your management have to be to drive a game backwards 5 years?
Par for the course in today's games industry. MMORPGs and their consequences have been a disaster for video games.
Nice pfp
1456 diamantine, 3 plasteel lol
I have 10k plasteel rn (got surprised)
Used 1k on my Ogryn, got really lucky rolls
Time to farm the Psyker next
The problem is you have to spend so much more plasteel than diamantine for blessing hunting
Hadron an Brunt have some dirty scheme going on taking all our shekels to fund some clandestine operations or some shit

lobby browser? nah no one would want to see what games are going on...
good crafting system? no everything must be gacha mechanics now...
just the same quality shop? NO I said GACHA MECHANICS
I only take a weapon to orange if it has good base stats
The game is built as F2P, its silly
10 buck skins
Resource grinds
RNG rolls
yep, and it sucks ass lol
but they want more MTX
I'm just trying to get one character two good weapons, and its taken frigging forever. I still have to hunt more plasteel too
At this point I just call Fatshark upper management, leeches
i'll be honest i just buy the good stuff i see in the shop
This damn shotgun has cost so much, and I still won'
since it's probably easier than dropping a mil ordo on grays
it isnt just them though, like the current stuff going on with COD is a shitshow
won't walk away with the two blessings I want
Do we know which talents are getting deleted to make room for the keystones yet?
The only shotgun that sucks IMO is the lawbringer, which is a shame because the secondary fire on it is by far the coolest of the 3. It just doesn't do any damage vs anything but groaners
With how many points are in the keystones, we have to be losing some actual talents too
tbh the best "tax" nodes were the stamina regen delay ones
I feel like that's situational. Yes, raw power the revolver apparently hits like 5 slugs out of an Agri, but the ammo count being so low makes me not want to run it
Plus the knockback on the slug is great for bulwarks. knocks that stupid shield right out of the way
You'll adjust to the ammo pool pretty quickly
It just has the pre-requisite that you need to do a lot of melee
I use it as an instant problem solver weapon for melee builds
Which you know, is like probably more than half the game already so eh, have at
Costly tho
Since you can swap to it, shoot at ranged threats and switch back to melee so fast
Since you are mostly shooting at specialists and elites anyway, with survivalist ammo isnt a problem
Honestly even without it its not much of a problem unless you're absolutely hard carrying
You think so? The agri is effectively a sniper rifle that can 1 tap armored maulers and ogryns, and from what ive heard the incendiary round does better for horde clearing than the lawmaker spread shot
do it
Incendiary is also very good at staggering a group of rager or crusher
Since it pierces
That’s true I was just assuring the guy who was complaining about running out of rev ammo though
Its like porn
is trauma/hammerblow a good combo
I prefer scatter/flechette myself, makes it slightly better against mixed
for devils claw
But yeah, it is not "good"
sorry about the mistake
If it feels good to you then yes. Does it kill stuff the fastest? No, but lots of CC
I’ll use it for now ig

#DARKTIDE
It's fun to slap rangers around with
i’ve made around 7 devils claws tryna get the best roll but as of yet all the perks are dogshit and no mk4 shred/rampage
literally only just got a lvl3 rampage
i meant slaughterer
No slaughter on devil claw afaik
i was told differently
Rampage gives bonus DMG after hitting 3 targets and is the go-to
so whats the best devils claw gonna look like
btw, is there any mod giving holo aiming for gun, instead of iron sight?
What do I put on boltor
flak/maniac savage sweep/ rampage
Weapon customization
Google darktide weapon customization mod
thanks 😄
haven’t got savage sweep once get
i’ve got literally every other blessing at least twice now
@formal lake shred with desperado talent and attack speed isn't terrible. But dunno if it's better than just plain savage
Anyone recomend a full auto las that's fun for elites?
Or should I get something punchier?
Full auto las are kinda doodoo at the moment
maybe try some infantry autoguns instead?
way better
Recon vld with some rending talents is still decent
Autoguns will use more ammo, but kill faster tho
I sorta gave up on my terrible headshot rateband decided Pen or full auto is the way to go. If i cant aim i can be more efficient.
Lasgun crit free ammo though
Only recon is automatic as of now, and I cant recommend it
Las pistol with a "hold to fire" mod shoots fast as hell
Laspistol with fullauto mod
And a crit build
Is a better recon rn 
Will actually kill shit without bankrupting the ammo of the party
I use deadshot with it, and aim when I want to make sure I want something dead
wish crit rate was easier to get in this game ngl
Low mobility knife feel very wrong
Also 337 base rating is bad
then the lasweapon crit ammo perk would be usefull
Yeah, it feels weird
Though, i am used to Warframe crit chances 
the spread seems fair enough
same XD
45 mobility probably won’t mean much
i’ll just run at the enemy with my autopistol out
With laspistol is basically double ammo
Maybe even triple?
how good are the blessings
las pistol has mobility stat which helps with stamina for the crit rate perk
+20 to maniacs is good and i can change the perk but are the blessings good
my pistol is at 69 mobility btw so i’ll just use that to run
I am tempted to run it and try it
But idk if I keep up the max stacks for long
Personally I'd rip off riposte and put on a better knife.
not the issue
is ur opinion trustworthy enough for me to get it rn?
mobility affects dodges and other stuff
On my curios I just run, +3 stamina 20% gunner resist, 20% sniper resist and stamina regen on all of them
get some more opinions brob, I like bleed
I mean the Hellbore can go entire missions without needing to reload if you pick your shots carefully
Ditto, also sprint efficiency is super nice to pair with stam Regen
is ur problem with the mobility?
Surgical is so silly
surgical, plus opening salvo plus deadshot is almost 100 precent crit chance every time
Mobility and first target are too low for me, yeah
yeah, but that thing is bassically a sniper, unless you are spamming about you should not be running low on ammo frequently
ok
Mhmm
IT’s useful combined with the suppression immunity even on damnation I don’t really bother dodging them. If the crew is getting hosed I can afford to step into the line of fire for a bit to line up a headshot
there’s another knife i’ll see if that’s better spread
@rocky stratus I'd say use it for a few games before you decide (if you buy it)
recon lasgun can triple its ammo with crits as well
Good morning veteran chat
What cool opinions do we have of our exciting new keystones
Not anymore lmao
got nerfed?
To the ground
Dark tide is dead tide
rip
Still get some free shots but it was nerfed to no longer give you 3-4 free shots per crit
Only affects the first crit, and crit strings are now 2 from 5
Imo it was an L
yea. The devs saw it and pushed it to the ground and pissed on it xD
I look forward to playing darktide in the next life then
Rending changes had brought down Recon
Shocktrooper change waa only murderring it in cold blood
i forgot i have the wierd arena lady
Im curious to see what they are. I would love something to do with weapon switching so the bolter isnt so fucking clunky
the right tree keystone is the coolest 😔
do we know what they do?
I hope the subnodes of the left looks a lot better
Deadly accurate with headhunter good on mk9 hh autogun?
Only the keystone, not the subnodes
Super handy. Kill some stuff in there, swap a blessing You're not 100% on and go again, see how you like it
Also has some silly wording
mind telling me what they are cause I dont know them
If we go as written
Dude, that is fucking nutty. gonna have to start grinding out a lawbringer now lo
Have to, ath the moment In my opinion, the Marksman Keystone is simply a cheek.
WHAT THE EVER LOVING SHIT
subnode is just ‘you can movr and it doesn’t remove stacks’
Hopefully we get camo back
https://youtu.be/jQL6RLvlNFM?si=hc9ZrSbPJ1QVogLP here video with keystones
FatShark have dropped ANOTHER teaser for the anniversary and winter break updates! WATCH that here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_53jXBsnL4k&ab_channel=Fatshark
On the face of it there is a lot of interesting stuff here. We have yet to see the augmentations to these keystones, so expect what we see here to be nicely buffed up further down th...
veteran just a better zealot?
That shit was busted
XD
People are assuming is 3% per stack and Fatshark did a funny
Tooltips are a mess, somehow
lets hope XD
I mean not that I would be against it but ye XD
anyways im off for a bit
330 crit makes no sense
sadly other way around atm xD
Should be built in ngl
usually it's the "engagement time" meme
totally. The current state of the keystone is just a mere joke
I hate when subnodes just have nodes that are
"This is a tax for the node to work properly"
when is vet getting a hotshot volley gun
thanks, man the gun one seems super miiiiiid
Any day now 
The subnodes better be godlike
Voss Pattern MkV Automatic Grenade Launche
partly cause I use the plasma gun and trying to hit headshots with its awful fucking reticle is paaain
putting a shredder together, i've got blaze away on it already: for the other blessing should I go Powderburn or Cavalcade?
thats what vet needs. it is the fkin standart heavy weapon for a vetern squad on TT
ok the knife is really funny
Hopefully they don't get rid of my 15% melee attack speed node
Also kinda ugly that ammo talent is still left tree looks like
Vets with no extra ammo, lmao
xD ja that was the biggest "fk you" fatshark released on patch 13
extra ammo should be a early level perk ngl
But Ogryns get it on the way for their gunlugger
Cavalcade imo, but can always try out both in the pyskarium
- nerfed the ammount from 40% to 25% and also made it nearly unobtainable
like, ey veteran is definitly not our ranged focused character
Right before executioners stance is where it should be
the knife is a bit silly
By 2030, vets will have a -50% ammo reserve
also why remove suppression imunity from executioners stance? this way atleast it had some real benefit from it and not only mere 25% range dmg
Gotta tax us
Finally! THis god damn class shoots already too much.
oof
what blessings are on your knife
its now a perk
Riposte (i can’t use that in the meat grinder hand flesh tearer
I assume you have a rending talent or smth
But what they did to accatran was totally unnecessary. The gun was far from being totally overpowered like fkin revolver and still they fked her up hardly
Perks i don’t have enough plasteel to change bc of the devils claw grind so there 20+ to maniacs and +8 to groaners/pox
yea at the end of the world, like ammunition and also needed to wast skillpoints on it.
are you talking about in the last patch, or do we have notes for the next one?
Someone at fatshark hates bullpups
talkin about patch 14
The one we playinv now
yee
but its total suppresion immunty atleast
rather than just for executioners
so anyone know why my fist does that?
yea but with the CDR on specialist and reset on marked enemies
Do you have onslaught talemt?
in a gunfight you are mostly the full time in executioners
what's your build and what blessings are on your knife
yep
So thats it
depending on the weapon and sometimes you dont wanna pop executioners for like 3 gunners if thats all there is
Every sttack reduces enemy armor
it feels wrong to run slower with the knife but oh well
3 gunners is like instant suppresion but no need to pop executioners for
ye but at the moment executioners is just a joke. no need for it in anyway.
DMRs do 1 shot headshots without it on everything besides ogres and these are not marked anyway so
I find it quite handy but I am mostly using the plasma gun so
Shout by far the best in general, sadly
Oj right we lost ogryn marking
yea, because of reasons. xD
also weakness exploit, why would you change the rending to the half the ammount and make it brittlesness on meele?!?!
I definitely get good value out of executioner's stance sometimes, but whenever I take it there is at least 2 or 3 moments during the mission where I wish I had Shout instead.
When I take shout I rarely miss exe stance
The melee part was stealth too
like hell!? why the fk not just crist with range and meele? or just nerf it a little to be not that strong, why would they remove it completly from the game?
They never awknowledged it
and occasionally we lose a mission where I feel like if I had shout we wouldn't have... so I pretty much just take shout nowadays
Yup, i take 100% exclusively shout nowadays
like exe stance is good sometimes but idk if there's ever been a moment where I feel like I just avoided a full mission fail by popping exe stance.
with shout something like that can happen multiple times in one mission on high intensity damnation
definitly Grimscribe and the problem with executioners is, that exhilirating takedowns is bugged for hell!
and without it the only consistent source of toughness regen is elites
oh shit, is it not giving the toughness rn?
now get a fkin zealot with relover and try to get these elites xD
worse, it does but the toughness DR is a uno reverse
you gain 30% toughness dmg on ur ass
xD
wait what does that mean lol
you take more toughness damage after ranged weakspot kills?
holy shit lmao
time to check all my loadouts and make sure i don't have that shit
https://www.reddit.com/r/DarkTide/comments/17q6ve3/psa_veterans_exhilerating_takedown_is_bugged_and/
yea would just be nice to tell the people.
otherwise they think, yea great less dmg and baem in ya face man xD
oh oof so if I want supression immunity or extra ammo I have to either take a toughness damage nerf on weakspot kills or deadshot which I do not like on every weapon
what weapons do y'all run deadshot on? feel like it would be solid on revolver maybe?
no, take surgical makes the deal
aim for 0.6 sec and you have the same effect
i already have surgical so I guess deadshot probably overkill
yeah
and lose no fkin stamina
but I do like the +25% ammo on revolver 😭
but it's definitely not worth being punished for headshots lmao
i want it too but fatshark decided that we don't deserve it xD
I just hope these keystones don't make my builds worse
how's this curio:
Would be funny if the tree update makes it more expensive to reach the good stuff in the bottom middle and right
I prolly already botched it, but i have another, how should i set this one up, or are the other axes better
And by funny I mean unfortunate
Antax still good
It's funny how BM seems to always be completely misunderstood lmao
Even the old one
i have a BM axe, but i dont use this one much
i didnt like it
thats why i never use it
despite it being a very nice roll
They bayonet on the helbore is a faster axe basically
It is pretty strong i agree but on the other hand it is the only toughness regeneration beside coherency passive regen vet has workin at the moment xD
holy shit sunder is so good
it only does dmg if you headshot
And it hits 2 mobs that are in line
I quite like the taxes now
I've rarely switched to melee since the buff
They have an actual identity
It does need weakspot kills for that though, doesn’t it?
yes
U finally got it?


being able to go through bulwark shield is actually insane
in a mixed hoarde it actually is a lifesaver
nice sword man, kind a jealous on these modifiers/perks xD
it took a lot of grinding lol
the rng is mostly not on my side xD
getting both of these T4 blessings is a PITA
Well even if they nerf certain blessings you have a nearly perfect template
may hadron unbrick your powersword
out of 100 power swords only 3 over 370 modifiers xD
Doesn't do any damage to what's behind the bulwark tho right?
im not entirely sure, but I need the bulwarks themselves to die because they take so much space
plus ragers can like glitch inside the bulwarks and still hit you
It can go through the shield and continue to cleave enemies but can’t dmg the bulwark itself
Just know crab was saying brutal momentum is the meta pick on the VI psword specifically. Lets you keep first target way longer than usual.
I think?
I don’t think sunder allows u to cleave and kill bulwark behind the shield
right, sunder here isn't for dmg, it's for pearl clutching to save my ass :3
Cleave targets isn't the same as cleave damage, at some point you will still be doing 0 damage with sunder
BM is the #1 meta pick
Sunder is the niche situation pick
You gotta kill them eventually, If it's not helping kill then I'm not taking it personally.
The "on overwatch" and "make every shot count" Penances are not completing for me, despite having done them multiple times. Is anyone else having this issue or have a workaround?
And Pswords don't really need help with mixed hordes IMO. Especially with the VI and it's oneshot push attack
shit is broken
Did u take health dmg when doing On Overwatch
i did not, no
Hmm weird
Ill keep trying but its getting very annoying
What to use for Chainsword Perks ?
just suicide and let 3 friends do it in Assassination. Dev havent fixed random enemy spawn behind or dog run paste you and you still count as melee damage
Can people stop telling to not look for plasteel 
I will start telling people to skip it now yw
well they can ask for it. but if anyone demands it they are toxic and i wish they stayed quiet
i had someone try and votekick a team mate for looting so he got kicked instead
Yes. Keep looking for it though.
Not bad. Charge rate being too high lowers damage anyway
really? how
did not know that
theres a wild list somewhere that notes damage difference
based on charge
Something here
penetration could be alot better but seems fairly solid, I don't know the exact number you need on defense to get the 6th dodge so I don't know how low you can afford to let it be, but still, cheaper pushes and better sprint is nice if you're into that
i'd run that shovel for sure

They are just idiots really
crit hit damage isn't great but I guess kind of works with gets hot, though you should still replace it. reload speed feels nmice but it's not something to make you hit breakpoints, I guess either replace both perks or replace crit damage and either blessing depending on what you care for less, but i've never used gets hot so I don't know how good it is
I do feel another buff for the devils claw and a readjustment with its parry needs a look at
what would you swap crit hit damage for
Only time it's acceptable is when the guy running off alone to search has major skill issues and should never be away from the group.
most people go maniac, and either unyielding/carapace, I forget which bit should all be good. Anything but infected and unarmored should be useful
wait wait 47% is still pretty good damage
whats this fucking code
any reccomondations for how to get power cycler 4, or is the best way just upgrading brunst armory greys to blue to see if it rolls it
It’s an interesting design choice to have damage spikes in waves for the charge rate.
is this good or am i missing breakpoints
Looks good. I’d just change the perks to +flak/maniac/unyielding and you’re good to roll
I don't think design choice is the right word when the release just had bars for values
Put slaughterer on it
It’d still be a design CHOICE tho right? Lmao
Design inevitability for fatshark 
Loooooool
Dont do this, BM > Slaughterer now
well best i can do is rampage 3 but i thought brutal momentum was the bis
It is
Whatever you do. Don’t lose the power cycler

PC4 and BM is the BIS for power sword
Sure is
Anyone like the Mk7 Devils C law? If so what blessings to look for
is the scope from extended extended
Hot take. I can’t stand mod posting.
idk, but man, at least people can now cope
Still better than scoreboard posting, not that I like mode posting in the first place though.
Dude for real
Scoreboard jerking is the worst
I only scoreboard post anywhere if I did the worst 
They hit gold with all the ways weapons can look
Scoreboards a decent way to check if you’re keeping up with the team
But yeah scoreboard chasing is a bad drug
Scoreboard posting is cancer
I’ve done it before so I can’t talk lmao
“Look how good/bad this game went”
its only useful for finding bad players, which you can do without a 3rd party tool
People see a teammate with less kills than them and think they’d be better off if that teammate didn’t exist
The only thing I don’t want is someone to habitually get downed. I don’t care if they don’t keep up with kills. Just don’t go down and I’m happy.
At least they can take aggro for me when I use infil 😂
I don’t care if you’re bad, let’s just win :p
i totally get downed all the time lol
Kek
I’ve been grinding my friend with doing AH and AD HISG so he can learn to dodge.
He only recently started dodging at audio cues
Honestly I’ve never paid attention to any audio cues ever, except for like.. snipers, trappers, and hounds. And mutants but they don’t really count
Really it’s trappers, flamers, and snipers. Hear the noise and dodge.
Mfw dodge to sniper audio cues and still get hit
Or. Just tag them and I’ll shoot them with plasma. Games are easier if there’s no specials.
Does flamer not adjust aim if you dodge out of the way when they schuut flame?
He does typically
I literally get hard at this thought
they do it just takes a sec for it to train back onto you
then do what everyone else plans to do
and kill the damn thing before it causes a bigger mess
The biggest thing is to not get your toughness nuked for the split second in fire
Yep
The trapper/Flamer/mutant combo will end games pretty easily
Same
We were just talking about scoreboard posting 
I find bombers way more annoying than flamers honestly
is there any practical use for this or are they just trying to say you are too poor for more leg armour?
I almost exclusively play pubs. It’s why I use infiltrate, frag, scavenger, plasma
How do I get the win/loss thing?
I have to say I’m probably one of those pugs I’m pretty bad at game still
Update scoreboard mod
Yes, but both are a pain
It’s so you can play hopscotch
Ye
I think its protection for the leg you keep up when you're kneeling
No shame
One knee is in the dirt and doesnt need as much protetction
Wonder when that changes how I would fare haaha
Yah I’m not super excited for changes since I have my build dialed in the way I want
I might have to give up my close damage on ability for the stun immunity, honestly 
Totally
Maybe I shouldn’t get the stun immunity so I don’t have to get reaccustomed when it’s removed lmao
But very worried for Confirmed Kills
The problem I have is that the keystones are gonna be bugged anyways….
Without Confirmed Kills vets will be very squishy
Like Catch a Breath is a meme if you want to try hybrid
Out for blood isn't enough to regen toughness
Swap keystone looks good for my playstyle since I use PS+Plasma and frequently am swapping.
Dude
Kickback is fucking ridiculous
I love this game
If there isn't a good way to regen toughness hybrid vets would be oomed
how have you managed that
I think I carried too hard and pulled something
Tfw
I got the vet line the other day: “I don’t trust any of you” when I had to pick up all 3 players and we ran to an elevator after a slog fight. It made my day.
Also I'm pretty sure it's the Weapon Customization mod. This never happened before I downloaded it
Kickback is like the meme shotgun of putting a mortar shell in a flare gun
Everyone going down and me doing my very best to keep the game from failing. We all limp to the elevator and the vet just shits on everyone
I want to feel like I'm playing the boggest of standard fps, how should I build? (Probably want an autogun of some sort)
Probably Columnus, dagger, executioners stance, frag grenade
Columnus 2?
You’re playing COD at that point
Yah idk I don’t use autoguns but columnus I hear is good
Dagger for that quick melee feel
Columnus has mk 2 and mk 5 so idk what to use there
Columnus is pretty fun. Dunno how viable it's gonna be in aurics though
2 or 5 though?
oh
okay okay so what are the good autoguns and which mks?
i bring a braced autogun to aurics and i do ok 
my broski really wants me to use headhunter autoguns instead but i dont
like what gun is most cod
Agri and columnus for autoguns
also agri braced
looks like an ak
All I know is that I usually out damage everyone in damnation with Columnus 2
By mag dumping hordes? Kek
This is why I stopped using Krak. They raise my blood pressure when I see them stick to something I didn’t intend
which mk!? ;0;
Infantry autoguns have 3 variants. Agripinaa and columnus are 2
same with Braced autoguns
Use smoke and never worry about using it again
One category is Braced autoguns, the other is Infantry
the power of magnetic properties my fellow reject, too far of an arc and the properties dont function
making it just a long fuse single target killer
which will be most call of duty
Kek. I’ve gone back to frag grenades and just take all the grenade regen stuff so I can drop grenades like leaflets
Carpet bombing the countryside
All are full auto. I dont know what you are looking for? Braced autoguns cant aim down sights so you moslty run and gun from hip fire
INFANTRY autoguns can be ADS
i guess ill probably run infantry
Columnus variant has faster firerate, agripinaa has slower but higher damage
ah okay infantry agri sounds like my style
Purchase one agripina and one columnus "infantry" autogun and see which feels better
No reason not to c:
i like more marksman-style weapons generally but i want to play more like a standard fps just cause i think itd feel nice, agri sounds like it still leans toward marksman while keeping the feel im looking for
These two variants are what you are looking for
Not really
can someone hop into strike team 47 and help me talent up? lol
Blessing are bad and infested damage is useless
For me, not really. Reload speed and falter are dead perks/blessings and infested and opening salvo are kinda bad so you are 0/4
If I had to salvage it though I'd keep opening Salvo and swap the other for headhunter, then infested for flak/unarmored
Its servicable for now, but keep looking for another one
carapace on infantry lasgun is dead
😿
You need to be somewhat lenient with your plasteel spending
it only bad cuz we dont got roomba level teammates snagging anything on the mission
Just give fixed plasteel and diamantine rewards for finishing missions based on difficulty
if you have a decent melee/ranged setup for now, don't waste too much plasteel on other stuff
Instead of encouraging people to waste time and wander off to look for it
I said before that special conditions + books need to give flat plasteel returns
- the ordo dockets
Or just make the actual crafting system not cancer
2 corrupt tomes brought back= 200 plasteel
Using the Shovel is like using a frying pan ong
We take what we can 😦
Ogryn shovel is like swingin the whole damn stove
If I could snort diamantine to do increased melee damage, I would
Let me grind that shit into combat stims and special bullets
special ammunition / one-time blessings 
Let me bribe Hadron to bless my chainsword with holy oils to make it do more damage on special activiation
man is tehre some sort of meme I can make with smoke nades
does rending linger or is it just for the given hit?
like if i backstab with ruthless, will my gun do more damage after too?
Exec stance. That's it
Man the redacted vet penances really ain't too bad, just finished the last one this morning and I only started going for them just last night
ok if i had to choose between the 10% rending talent and one of the stacking brittleness tallents which should i go for?
yeah, plasteel is so valuable but there's no gameplay loop involvement. flat bonuses for things like no deaths, low/no downs would be very good
Yeah, the worst ones are psyker's by far
otherwise it's just scavenge and then you're playing the game to prepare for playing the game
max toughness for a curio is 17% correct?
Only redacted penances I haven't finished at this point
yes
Correct
Vet is my third most played admittedly
using agri 1 autogun, should i use deadshot, 25% damage against ogryns and monstrosities, or just something else entirely?
oh crap i didnt get the 60s grenade replenish, nvm thats what ill put it in
No, never use deadshot with full auto guns

does onslaught reset the durration of all brittleness stacks on every application
doesn't cain through stam like the other 2
i just used a mk4 tactical axe for the first time in forever and holy shit is it so much better than the other tactical axes, it has way better swings and by far the best special out of all of them
is the heavy laspistol particularly good, and what sorta build and blessing should I have it focused on?
decent with the new patch, you probably want a melee focused build with the weapon swap talent
Heavy laspistol is good for crit builds
and deadshot added on
las pistol is really nice, it can pump out nice damage and great to shoot from the hip
I got a macro and it turns it into a laser UZI
Melk selling this stupid thing and i want it for stupid reasons....
ok so say I went laspistol and shovel, would that be acceptable?
sure io guess
When you said macro, i was expecting gameplay like this
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1046913589614747719/1054939924572426351/Desktop_2022.12.15_-_18.34.34.02.mp4?ex=654aea5d&is=6538755d&hm=9a05e4407dd3b5f3e2626bece97feb8f174f814c067161f3e2d285e95097313e&
old footage btw, not sure if this still works as well
ah ok
No lol I just hate pressing M1 to fire for effect.
I think there's a mod that does that for you though
full auto mod or a macro is needed for las pistol lol
Yea. I slapped a Marco on my helbore and it fires just a bit faster than the MG LA kantreal
Was it called FullAuto?
full auto yeah
i embrace the rsi
im good chief
if moving ur finger doesnt sound like a car trying to start in winter why did god give u it
the wrist injuries are part of the experience
A couple spine injuries are good enough for me atm
i thankfully built a tolerance via playing cookie clickers in my youth
so my fingers dont care 
Come back after 40 years and say that again
if im able to play a videogame on keyboard when im that old
i aint gonna come back here to brag
yea or nay?
is a 378, even if it had bottom roll damage
Give it to hadron and see
i would say yea
mfw you go so braindead shooting shit with your plasma rifle you dont realize you've been absolutely blasting a daemonhost with plasma on damnation
first one I ever bought. mobility isn't high but it's not awful. I won't roll anything better for a while so might as well invest.
bought? nice the armory getting generous with ur operators
I hope Hadron is merciful
Shooting plasma in the vicinity pisses it off
usually people brunts for something like that
it wasn't with me trying to roll a better chainsword for the past 2 weeks.
If they give kantreal with a bayonet that would be nice
lol ya for some reason the shop has a 6th sense
yes.
Plas is very meta right now isn't it. Played a few games last night and every other vet had one
Not really not when you take the rending perk
if u dont blow up ur set with big specialist/elite damage
In the skill tree
other than that? low ammo pool
practically only have 2 clips including the one in the gun
Lasguns been eating good this patch
Solid firearms took a hit when the ammo pool was reduced
Which makes sense lore wise lasguns are the economic option
Roll up in the hab to do some ganger mischief

shame we can't gansta fire 😔
though we aim 45 degree, close enough
While gangster fire is dumb. It is a feature that would be funny
I'm no autogun expert, this worth grabbing for some melkbucks?
Eh
I don't remember brauto having good blessing anyways
this look ok btw?
Nice change up the blessings and it's solid
Don't forget it's bayonet hits like an axe
IK, U can also bayonet rush now
300 ish damage
wait naw thats the mk3 w/ the axe swing, the mk2 & mk1 have stabs
I wish shotguns had a bit more stopping power
bayonet rushing almost doubles the damage iirc
Saved the sister of battle wannabe from the hound
And bottom middle always great
so i didn't miss anything important really?
The melee damage boost in the tree also affects bayonets btw
Depends on weapon. May want deadshot for revolver for example
But for like brauto it's good
Onslaught goes hard
dead shot is in narnia tho
i think the plan is like agri brauto with mk6 power sword
how do i make knife good for horde?
im roughing it with devils claw revolver rn because im just 28
for veteran sneaky build do I want the knife with bleed and 90% rending on back stab?
cause rn i got a knife with 2 bleed blessing one for crit hits bleeding and bleed for non crit hits should i make a knife for the backstab and bleed?
You don't really need the bleed, the rending is the important one
Riposte is pretty nice if you're wanting to build bleed for crit chance, Precognition adds some damage, particular when not using stealth
Also, ideally go for 100% on your rending backstab blessing
so i want the backstab blessing and a blessing called Riposte?
That's what I like on it. Riposte gives 20% crit chance on a successful dodge.
if you're just wanting to stack bleed, flesh tearer is fine to. It really depends on what you're trying to do with the knife
stab they butthole
You can also just take Precognition, which is flat finese damage on a dodge
So just highest damage per stab then?
yeah
@serene sage
lel
probably precognition and ruthless backstab, if you're willing to dodge to get the finesse damage
yeah you were doing great even with that though
why does the armorer hate me
since last patch my connection has been tanking and idkw hy
i get one amazing plasma gun
hadron nukes it
armorer only gives me shit stat ones now
yeah i want to use infiltrate get behind the lines and stab the biggest boi
I would also like to know this
clearly, skill issue
if you don't want to dodge to get your finesse damage, take Mercy Killer and use your nade to apply bleed
true
ok mercy killer blessing and ruthless back stab, thank you!
Good luck :)
does anyone know what the extended scoreboard mod is called?
Ovenproof’s scoreboard i think
I hate knife now.
Bolter gaming am I right?
What should I swap infested to?
Lawbringer shotgun is obviously the new meta
Flak damage
I usually have something to deal with the armored guys
Like Flak yea
Thx
You beat me to it 
Lol I don't blame them. AI spawner had a field day with the Dreg gunners.
This is if you're grinding out greys at Brunt's ya? I just check the shop all the time and pick up everything 370+, plenty of bases to find godrolls from. Plasteel is definitely the bottleneck for me lol
Met my first troll today 😔
alas these wretched days must be yours
Fucked around not doing anything, just watching everyone else, then someone goes down to bomber forcing them into five gunners (no fault of his, just bad luck), he says 'someone is already down, it's a gg' and runs ahead into a demonhost, triggers, and leaves.
All well an good if you can kill them
873 hours though without a troll before, that's a good record
If they kill you an you leave, congratulations, you just fucked three people's game
guys vetgryn build is so good
see damage
must be kickback
check
mfw
Yeah I've seen oggenheimer before
Do you or anyone recognise me?
Yeah, guess what my first character was lol
are you on NA?
my first vet has default name too 😔
cause marget sounds familiar
Idk so I'm going to say maybe
he means are you on north american server
Can't remember what I'm on and need to check
wah it should be where u live
how do you not know my brother
Because I live in the Europe but I set my shit to english countries because I only speak english
So idk if it picked the closest server (EU) or NA
i hate how reblessing or changing perks locks other shiz
im tryna make a back stab knife but all i get is bleed and stamina knives
All my rejects have default names >_>
If you have a default name, i will break your knees
be original
been in matches with two or three havelochs
anguish aside, the braced MK VIII is a dynamite
My ogryn is just straight up called blender
My zealot is called Jimmrick (but that's the name I default too when I don't know what to name something)
And I can't remember what my psyker is called because I haven't touched them since I got the game
I named my Ogryn Buford-Blue (aka Bubba), Flintlock my Vet, King-Gizzard my Psyker and Shamus my Zealot
if you guys had to pick the meta vet talent build, what would it be? (im assuming plasma and ps6 most likely)
I'm personally running stealth vet with plasma gun and krak grenades
I wouldn't call it meta but its really fun
Plasma and Krak are the way
i use targetting and plasma
i kept a streak going for like 5 mins, taking scalps with the plaz
PS6+Revolver/Plasma/Laspistol+Shout+Krak*+Survivalist*+Anything
Eh, not that much slower to there really be a difference
Personally i prefer the revolver too, but i feel like plasma is prety much at the same level
Ps6+revolver. Krak for monstro, frags otherwise. Plasma for no ammo maelstrom
Survivalist+shout
Difference is: with Revolver, PS is your main weapon; with plasma, plasma is your main weapon. You dont need quickdraw on the plasma cuz its already out
idk about meta and primarily use automatic weapons, but these are the nodes i think are the strongest: longshot and close order are both worth taking, shout ofc, iron will, and then onslaught, desperado, trench fighter
I almost never take desperado or trench fighter cuz I'm too deep in the middle tree
shovel + kantrael is gud ? Going executioner's stance btw ..
Middle first 5 big node would also be meta
