winter dock
#

it'll clear out rooms of shooters just as well as anything else

nimble sentinel
#

but then I have to play zealot

winter dock
#

my first game trying this new VII strat I devised I did very decently. Had to eat all the ammo packs but the other two were pyskers and Ogryns running kickback/rumble so they didn't really need all that much to begin with

nimble sentinel
#

and also

south spindle
dusk idol
#

they both do crit better than vet does

south spindle
#

Sad, but true

inner lava
#

all classes are pretty fun but vet is in a weird spot

south spindle
#

Vet should be equally good at crits

inner lava
#

i liked the vet better last patch

serene sage
dusk idol
#

he has the least defined role out of all the classes

winter dock
#

our best crit related nodes only work on very specific weapons

#

Deadshot is exclusive to low firerate guns, and Focus is only workable on high firerate guns with already bad crit characteristics

south spindle
nimble sentinel
#

look at this handsome ugly bastard, I can't NOT play him

wanton dawn
winter dock
#

Marksman focus really needs to have its stackloss condition changed to not headshotting as opposed to moving

#

that'll fix it entirely

untold mulch
serene sage
dusk idol
nimble sentinel
#

when we get the pearl clutching cosmetics and zealot gets the veteran chestplate with sniper hood, THEN I migrate classes

south spindle
#

It would have to be non-headshot kill or you'd drop stacks hella fast on accident

south spindle
#

But yeah, it'd be a good change

serene sage
#

It's just that the class is clunky to play

winter dock
#

Focus target is jank as fuck because of the way stack refreshing works, fix that and buff the effect to compensate and it'll be a very decent keystone

serene sage
#

So I don't bother

winter dock
#

Weapons Specialist literally doesn't work- fix it so that it works a written and bam its good

wanton dawn
#

I mean, they both works as intended ?

untold mulch
#

Literally copypasted code to my knowledge

south spindle
#

Big boi, with big damage. I can't hate Oggy for being OP, he's both an Ogg an c'mon, you couldnt be mad with the big man could ya?

untold mulch
#

Tag is good

ruby fulcrum

#

Once we understood shit KEKW_ogryn

civic bay
#

Does the crit only apply on the first shot?
Or was the 33% a typo?
Not sure if a consensus was reached on that yet.

untold mulch
#

First is guaranteed

civic bay
#

From my tests it was first shot

untold mulch
#

To my knowledge

#

Is literally a Vt2 talent

#

Copy pasted

civic bay
#

I was able to get non-crits on first shot if I didn't get enough melee kills (I think)

untold mulch
#

And someone was sleepikg on the job and didnt change the code

civic bay
#

Either way, reaaaaally nice for revolvers, shotguns, etc... and kinda pointless for automatic guns

#

stupidly good with Revolvers with the reload, really
Shotguns are more finnicky since you have to manually load special ammo

wanton dawn
#

If i ever feel sad i remember that this node exist

civic bay
#

imagine reaching that node

wanton dawn
#

imagine taking that node

kind scarab
#

Imagine reaching the node and taking it

visual remnant
civic bay
#

all the way down and oh so useless

untold mulch
south spindle
#

If i had the points i might actually take that one 😅 I love Shovel push attacks too much

untold mulch
#

Fatshark gentlemen

autumn perch
#

Vet worst class

civic bay
#

honestly though lol

kind otter
#

So the ammo you get back is rounded up so will revolver reload a shot (20% of its clip) if you swap after a single melee kill?

wanton dawn
civic bay
#

marksman can hit much higher numbers but guaranteed crit after melee boops is just so much easier

#

Yes, you get 1 ammo back minimum

#

so revolver will always reload 1 ammo even with one kill

south spindle
civic bay
#

It's kinda silly tbh

untold mulch
#

And it has a crit

winter dock
#

Weapons spec needs to be rewritten entirely. Makes its effects actually last the stated durations and reduce the crit bonus for Ranged spec to like 3% per stack so its 30% at full so that it isn't ridiculous giving 10s of guaranteed crit

untold mulch
#

You can slap a poxwalker
One shot a crusher

Repeat

south spindle
#

I like how Weap'Spec' works now tbh

#

It's really fluid

#

Great for frontliners

winter dock
#

True, it's not a bad idea- they just need to make it so that the melee stacks are relevant and that the nodes it has after are relevant

untold mulch
#

Works for way too few guns as of now

civic bay
#

They just need to make the description more accurate and maybe consolidate the extra nodes for it

deep fable
#

power grants cleave yes

winter dock
#

ATM the only relevant mechanic is the guaranteed crit on the ranged and the toughness/ammo regen nodes

south spindle
civic bay
#

The keystone itself is solid imo

winter dock
#

attack speed for 1 attack does literally nothing

#

so only the buggy guaranteed crit on the first ranged bullet is actually having any effect whatsoever

south spindle
#

Its noticable on Shovel

winter dock
#

It is.

#

The stacks dissipate after one hit

south spindle
#

Yeah

#

Tbh it turns some weapons into blenders for a few seconds

winter dock
#

So the melee components attack speed buff does stick around for 5 seconds even when the buff vanishes?

south spindle
#

Catachan Sword an Shovel both

winter dock
#

I wonder if that applies to the Ranged buff as well?

untold mulch
#

Still only rhe first shot being a crit is silly

winter dock
#

Does the 33% crit on the ranged buff also still apply?

torn gorge
#

no

untold mulch
#

Nah

winter dock
#

God who the fuck Wrote this keystone

#

it must have been an intern high on shrooms in a latenight bender

torn gorge
#

increased rof is funny though

untold mulch
winter dock
#

with literally noone double-checking him

autumn perch
#

no ammo aura, no toughness regen talents, and i think revo does better with the right side keystone because it functions as a very nice secondary

civic bay
#

programmers weren't on the same page as the designers 😂

south spindle
# untold mulch Still only rhe first shot being a crit is silly

You can use Crucian Roulette + Point Blank on a revolver an it compensates for the drop after the first shot, obviously PB is always active because you're swapping constantly an Crucian picks up a bit of the slack after that, throw Deadshot in there too, an you're ballin

untold mulch
#

Honestly +33% for 5 secs is kinda baller

#

Would*

civic bay
#

was gonna say

nimble sentinel
#

smh my head these pugs, sometimes I think they ignore elites and specials on purpose

slow spade
#

like a student using excessive words to hit the page requirement uwU

civic bay
#

TIL though

steady pawn
#

What perks do I put on a plasma gun, unyielding and maniac or flak?

civic bay
#

Base damage and damage boosts are the same? It's not like base vs final damage?

winter dock
#

correct

civic bay
#

why...

#

That's good to know

winter dock
#

Fatshark's dev team probably has no overhead whatsoever

slow spade
winter dock
#

or whoever is meant to manage or double-check them is incompetent

headshots on gunners and ragers though

I'll just keep yelling at the people at FS until they actually implement solo properly

Personally i think its good to see how hard you can push yourself every now an then, bots are dogshit in this game

Because they're lifted straight from VT2

VT bots have the single benefit of being able to bet equipped with whatever loadout and gear you toss their way

With ping keystone you had to have sacrificed either grenades or some of the melee tree

also in the time it takes to stack ping couldn't you have just shot twice

I'm getting similar dmg with the right build prepatch so I'm ok with the DMG nodes moving around

Is flachette even possible to get on shotgun right now?? I have spent like 40k plasteel and havent seen it once

trench fighter drill why

im crying rn

dusk idol
#

trench fighter was changed for the weapon swap keystone

#

they all were changed because of keystones

#

does recon vld have same dps as column ? as the first have 2x the ammo but half the dmg ?

bitter turtle
#

Esp against maniacs

#

It quite literally does 1/3rd of column dps on maniacs

plush dragon
#

they trashed recon

dusk idol
plush dragon
#

it had shit dps on non headshot anyways

dusk idol
#

they also have different blessings available which can affect the dps

bitter turtle
#

Wait wrong pic lol

#

Sec

opal crag
#

columns V Infantry vs columns II Braced ?

bitter turtle
dusk idol
#

it’s the columnus you want

bitter turtle
#

Recon can be somwhat competitive vs column on carapace but it still hoses ammo

#

And against maniac it is just sad

opal crag
dusk idol
#

infantry autogun

slow spade
#

had a run with randoms where they said "nice clean run everyone"

#

feels good c:

formal relic
#

The piercing is really strong

bitter turtle
#

Yeah

#

Agri iag is good too if you want to stick to iags

opal crag
#

hmm , no dodge limit on braced ? according to wiki

bitter turtle
#

Less dps and fire rate than column though

dusk idol
#

wrong

#

no no

bitter turtle
#

More precision tho

dusk idol
#

braced has less dodges

#

only 2 dodges

Voice of command + support build Vet

There is a node for lasguns , crit = free ammo

#

worth las for it ?

Nurgles blessing always feel like such a non-thing

They gutted how it works for recon

#

Only refund the first bullet of a crit string now

slow spade
#

ok I'm good but I'm not THAT good...

formal relic
bitter turtle
#

Other single shot lasguns can abuse it for near infinite ammo though

opal crag
#

I am looking for nearly only ranged vet

#

with big mag

bitter turtle
#

Try column

#

Then

#

It's a good swiss army knife gun

#

Run survivalist so you don't run dry on ammo

opal crag
#

but it is not considered a las , is it ?

bitter turtle
#

It's not

opal crag
#

so the node wont proc

bitter turtle
#

But you don't need shocktroop to shoot nearly the entire game

#

Column has great ammo efficiency to dmg

#

And a huge mag

#

Survivalist will help too

opal crag
#

what makes infantry better than braced for columns ?

kind scarab
#

It's doable, but is it pretty? Nah. There's other ways to reach the breakpoint too, but I don't like'em.

bitter turtle
#

Iag vs braced is basically the secondary action

opal crag
#

oh , braced does not have ads , does it ?

bitter turtle
#

Nope

opal crag
#

same as ogryn then

#

infantry is de wae then

junior needle

Ads helps Columnus for picking off snipers and gunners and shit

which is vet spec

# opal crag infantry is de wae then

Low damage high ROF doesnt really work for braced autoguns because you can't be precise with it and it doesnt have the ammo economy to sustain spraying

#

Agri works better for braced because the piercing makes it easier to hit what you want

#

And the slower ROF makes tapping things to death in the distance more manageable

wraith locust
bitter turtle
#

Don't forget to crouch when doing precise shots on columnus

#

Helps with recoil

opal crag
#

is Power Sword the best for vet ? III or VI ? ( spectial attack seems good )

bitter turtle
#

Power sword is great yeah

whole moon

yeah braced autoguns shoot faster while braced while doing more suppression/stagger, iirc

if you get power cycler 4 replace wrath with it and carapace for maniac imo

you'll have a decent one

The middle keystone rewards doing what you should already be doing

nocturne mulch
civic bay
#

The right keystone is also pretty free as long as you're using a weapon that doesn't take 5 years to swap to and actually melee things

dusk idol
tight dragon
#

also i hope people know exhilarating takedown is bugged and actually INCREASES damage taken

nocturne mulch
#

There is too much incredibly useful utility

civic bay
#

yeah, the keystone itself is fine but getting there is another matter rofl

bitter turtle
#

I get more dmg taking other things than middle key

civic bay
#

Way too expensive to get down =/

#

middle keystone gives your entire team damage

bitter turtle
#

Right one is good but I don't use the guns that synergize well

ruby totem
#

Is there a bug report on the forums for the exhilarating takedown thing?

nocturne mulch
#

Specialist keystone is good if you have gone with a Stripped Down build

civic bay
#

your own personal damage will naturally suffer since it's so expensive to get down there

bitter turtle
#

My last auric mael run I did 700k dmg and two of my teammates did 300k

Why is born leader a tax node

It's not like all the other classes' keystones are exciting either

frank ether

LOL as a middle tree user I agree

#

Born Leader plz go away

rugged portal
#

Ya know, right keystone would be decent if it didn't just go away after 5 seconds but, instead, lost stacks one by one for longer. At least give us a but longer of an uptime.

frank ether
#

there is not a single build in the game that likes born leader

rare current

Ya'll think Weapon specialist is worth it over getting other stuff

civic bay

depends on weapon

Assuming you didn’t get in a lobby with 3 stealth zealots

civic bay

but also no afaik
(only tested briefly)

frank ether
#

feels to me like they approached keystones with the idea of nerfing whats popular and the answer to that was middle path for every vet build

rugged portal
frank ether
#

except now its stupid and my helbore build cant have ogryn&monstrosity damage unless I go middle lmao

royal monolith
#

i am like 5 dmg off breakpoints for plasma

#

its so dumb

naive hatch
civic bay
#

and not sure about right keystone + plasma
the swap speed makes it kinda of questionable

royal monolith
#

nah its fine

bitter turtle
#

The only big win we got was precision strikes being super accessible tbh

digital gazelle
bitter turtle
civic bay
#

confirmed kill was moved to a nice place too, though it was also nerfed

royal monolith
#

plasma has to have the speedup blessing tho

civic bay
#

oh my mistake then
I swap weapons every match and use all four classes so I've only used Plasma a few times. remembered wrong then

royal monolith
#

i run knife bleed build with plasma

umbral scaffold
bitter turtle
#

its slow at other things

#

but it comes out fvast

#

when you swap

#

also new CK spot is just as annoying as old one to me

#

i cant take the reload speed anymore now lul

#

without wasting more points

civic bay
#

I mean, everything is kind of annoying right now because of how deep the trees go aha

plasma is just a revolver with bigger clip and cleave tbh

I cant take iron will on sharpshooter build

Plasma is a pistol you can't aim as well for far distances, and it can blow up in your face

tight dragon

i'm just coping with this

bitter turtle
#

uinless they buffed it

umbral scaffold
bitter turtle
#

longshot is pretty bad tbh

#

might as well put that point in something else

kind scarab
#

Kill Zone is even worse

civic bay
#

it's also extra painful that Survivalist + Shout is kind of the go-to

kind scarab
#

So don't even think about that

bitter turtle
#

you could put that point into demo team

#

nades

#

nades everywhere

civic bay
#

you only get more free points when you specifically beeline straight in order to get more points

naive hatch
bitter turtle
#

deadshot is a thought too

worth it for Vet?

all are def better than longshot

bitter turtle
frank ether
#

dont rly care, I have a version of this where I take shock trooper for helbore.

bitter turtle
#

looks like you picked up every +dmg you could possibly get lul

frank ether
#

yes cause I'm tired of having to solo monstros and DHs in auric games as a fucking squishy sharpshooter vet

tight dragon
#

i'll try demo team, should be better than field improv in auric considering how stupid the waves are

frank ether
#

It also does melee better than sharpshooter build

rare current
frank ether
#

cause again this keystone and its buffs applies to both weapons

#

and the buffs are not weakspot specific except precision strikes

dusk idol
#

maps

tight dragon
#

lmao

bitter turtle
#

so if all you can grab is the right keystone itself and it works for your weapon, its still pretty good

civic bay

For Weapon Specialist I'm only taking the ammo regen if using revolver/shotgun specifically. The stamina looks nice but kinda too deep... The rest I skip

how dare you

the amount of damage you take vs regen isn’t enough just to use out for blood

tossing grenade into a horde for a quick toughness boost sounds nice

why'd they nerf ck so bad 😔 my boy

since shredder does inconsistent bleed damage rn
