Columnus IAG
I dont see it
Extremely strong gun currently
iag is this discord's shorthand for Infantry AutoGuns
but for Braced autoguns, we say brauto instead of BAG
๐ผ
costed?
accosted?
Veteran with recon lasgun
2 assail Psykerโs with a grand total of 50 melee kills
Hi intensity hunting grounds
Costed?
As in, being dragged down by them
Not my thing
Ah
I am trying to make shotgun work with Zealot
Shotguns just suffer from low range
I'm hoping the patch comes with some buffs to some of the more doodoo weapons
chaxe and recon especially
everything else kinda viable but those two doodoo
Chaxe just cant compare to chword rn
Its cleave is rly bad compared to chainsword
it does that lock-on rev attack on lights
which isnt ideal
and heavies arent good either
+20 heavy damage with less cleave here u go 
Yea i feel like axes are single target damage, which doesnt bode well for caxe
The antax slaps tho
I mean its not exactly amazing single target damage either
I'm not even feeling the axes benefit on single target (over the other chain weps)
which was the slug special shotgun?
mundane axes chop single enemies better and safer than chaxe too
^
agripinaa pattern
Thank you
Ye its supposed to be good but it aint so
if the light revs applied the bleed blessing maybe I could see it
Idk
just lackluster
I endorse the antax, at least i think thats what the wide bladed one is
ayo what's with all the malice players in auric damnation?
I dont think the light rev even does anything beyond being annoying
got dudes with plasma guns dumping into more hordes than me with my las
exploding barely before meeting the enemy
Its nice, I like mine but the Rashad blows it out the water damagewise
yeah its just annoying and it doesnt do enough damage for a rev attack
nor does it cleave
chaxe lights sticking on hit could be cool but it doesn't hurt hard enough to justify it
in the same timeframe I'll do one light with psword or d.claw and it will take out 3-4 chaff
nothing about chaxe hits hard enough to justify taking it over chsword
my band-aid fix is normalize its maniac damage (it does less to them) and give it 200% carapace damage
make it a proper crusher can opener
thunder hammer flattens unyielding armor, let chaxe tear up carapace
that and a little better cleave on heavies maybe
Huh, gotta get myself a good rashad then
yeah vet kinda lacking in anti-armor choices for melee anyways
yup, look at the power modifier range from Finesse, Antax doesnt have this stat. Just in case you wanted to know why
Brooo i have 87 plasteel and 2000 diamantine ๐ญ
Fatshark give us an exchange PLEASE
I would use it.
ok now you can exchance 1 plasteel for 1000 diamantine
15 plasteel here we come
sci fi building materials be like: plasteel, plas-crete, plasfiber, plasglass
sounds like I can start pulling apart buildings to supplment my plasteel addiction
Metal with the flexibility of plastic is a supermaterial in every sense of the word
It would allow things like space elevators to be possible and megastructures
Also it follows normal human naming conventions which is basically just "thing"
Steel just means "firm"
"Oh look I figured out how to make this iron stronger, it's way less malleable, pretty firm stuff, what should we call it?"
"Firm."
"Good enough let's ship it."
Going back to root words plasteel just means "firm plastic"
Which isnt far from the canon truth as plasteel is uber strong plastic
simply earn more
are you trying to build a plasteel fortress over the plasteel ocean ?
why do you so much plasteel
yeah i have p much everything i want
True, I have an ammount saved for anyday hellgun
but i have 2k hours so i would hope i dont have shit left to grind lol
i play all 4 classes so when new weapons drop i gotta grind em a bunch
๐
but boy when a new weapon category drops we'll be ready
when a new laspistol variant drops and we just slap on the dumdum + infernus we already own ๐ด
A-ho Heya Hoya Heya Hoya
hell yeah
thats the nice part, if they release more variants of existing weapons we dont gotta get blessings
its gonna suck when new special stuff comes out
but w/e
Watching the gun psyker play like a zealot and fail so much I couldn't heal throughout the map. 
FS when they add in a new book of blessings
they should have melk sell blessings
We take the combat stims from the carnival
we use the combat stims
Okay to be fair those stims had some Nurgle funk in them
I feel like we'd be more forced to take stimms rather than having the option to buy them.
those stims have SUSPECTED Nurgle funk in them
hmmm should I go infernus + ghost + flak damage instead of reload speed, or is dumdum kinda mandatory
TBF after the first nurgle plague I doubt they'd do anything w that stuff without a good luck and maybe a few reject trials ๐
Oh wait
infernus and dum-dum are kind of interchangeable based on build preference
Anyone got a good post traitor-curse build for Autogun Grenadier?
then I guess infernus is the way to go there as I've got crit perk on the gun already. And if I want more damage I can just roll another laspistol! thanks 
yee
Which the combination of Dumdum (3) + Deathspitter (4) or Dumdum (3) + Fire Frenzy (4) better in the Columnus Mk V Infantry Autogun?
And what would you change about this weapon?
Crit damage > flak
Speedload > fire frenzy/deathspitter (deathspitter also stacks up to 5 iirc but not sure)
Ghost is best if you're running deadshot, if you aren't then it may not be worth it. Infernus is neat because it procs onslaught (talent) but dumdum is more appreciable soft target damage.
Thank you for your answer, what does "up to 5 iirc" mean?
WOnering if I should get this Chainaxe for Melk coins
https://puu.sh/JVm3W/64dd8831a9.jpg
seems like theres 3-4 blessings viable on plasma, right? is their a defacto best combo?
it just means up to 5
iirc is "if I recall correctly" which is just a figure of speech
"Deathspitter has a maximum of 5 stacks, if I recall correctly."
It should function like fire frenzy in that it gives "stacks" of the power bonus on kill, up to 5 despite its tooltip. I can check it now.
Chainaxe
Just there it's a no, but it also dumped pen
chat what is the keep firing mod called?
If you can check it, I would be very grateful.
I also don't know what it gives "stacks" of the POWER BONUS on kill means
Therefore, I do not know which of these blessings is better.
And I have both of them at level 4 to put on.
Deathspitter +6.5% Power for 3.5s on Close Range Kill.
Fire Frenzy Gain +10% Close Damage for 3.5 seconds after killing an enemy at close range, stacking 5 times.
๐
yeah and tbf I don't really want to run ghost, I was just trying to cope my way into using my lasgun, as it was almost perfectly rolled 
I did it finally, 50 missions on everyone
I traded ghost for infiltrate haha
best blessing(s)/perk(s) for mg IV infantry lasgun?
I hate ogryn so much
you take that back
Power is damage, cleave, and stagger. So power boosts can let your weapon hit more targets, even if it didn't do so already.
They function identically in practice, the only difference is that one is power, and the other is a slightly higher amount of damage. I'd take the power personally, because hitting more targets is also more damage. But both work fine.
don't bully the big men
and clunky
sue me :<
ogryn's more likely to eat ya for sayin that to em
Your statement is discrimation
Thank you very much for your answer. Now I understand everything. ๐
I liked ghost/headhunter since it's the least good for the deadly accurate/headhunter combo. I do a critfishing setup with deadshot and ghost puts you into a dodge state for duck n dive for essentially infinite stamina as long as you're getting shot at.
what do I want on laspistol? infernus and dumdum?
nobody knows
kek
infernus/dumdum/ghost (if you're running deadshot/dnd which I'd recommend)
Infernus and DumDum is a good combo
What makes you happy.
im kinda asking fir my psyker haha
Psyker has something for dodging but it might be the "successful" dodge bs and won't work with ghost
Like reciprocity doesn't for whatever reason
No.
Not with those stats
aye ok
Itโll fall short and be a little frustrating to use.
For a Columnus, do you want like Death Spitter and Dumdum?
yes
you do
nooice
Fire frenzy also works in place of deathspitter
The important one is dumdum
Because it's bugged and is actually way better than the tooltip implies
even if it did work as written it's still amazing
I just picked up my old Columnus with dumdum again recently and this thing feels
GOOD
close range is like 7-8m now
So getting a damage boost only there is still uh
Well I suppose the IAG's don't have many good blessings do they
good enuff for when i barrel stuff a mauler/rager/bulwark
they have
the defensive blessings i guess
It got massively buffed in patch 14
rip autopistol btw

Autopistol is felt like dogshit when I used it in the talent patch
now inferior ammo, accuracy, and damage output compared to columnus
I had a really good one too
it also has the blessing that gives toughness if you magdump yeh?
It really do be staggering
that blessing has been largely nerfed
It has that, but honestly it needs all the damage help it can get
ah grody
it's like 50% toughness on a full magdump i reckon
Found the darcy.
nice if you're lucky you might get 8 good rolls
Compared to everything, really.
Just a sad weapon now 
It's good against dreg ragers.
Game loves to spawn 15 ragers surprised motherfucker now.,
The recons put up a good fight for most dogshit weapon
80% damage roll btw
You're uh
shooting an enemy that takes 300% melee damage
It'd be a more relevant test on flak machine gunner
or any of the regular elites
Fuck, even the maniac rager
because that's something that's an actual
Solution: Gun
thing
Its to showcase consistent dps against an armor type, in this case maniacs. High health targets reduce testing dps variance. The fact that its a mutie has nothing to do with it, it's purely for dps testing purposes.
Total HP values throw DPS tests out of whack
unless you approach the DPS of the enemies HP
Shredder actually outperforms colomnus in maniac dmg
Which is why I suggest the maniac rager
But thats about it
Its still high HP
no you're right, I'm being stupid again.
I still think the mutant is a particularly bad example though. Its not something you're gonna be shooting very often, or at all, considering its a recon lasgun
@slow spade wait, a long long time ago we played together without even knowing each other
when we had the twin vet white outfit
Mutie I never bother shooting with a recon. Maybe a revolver, but even then I know my odds of killing it before I can just melee it are slim.
I mean, I shoot muties all the time 
I know what I'm doing though.
Which is the stark contrast being me and recon lasgun users
laspistol, much like the revolver, has the power of it's raw swagger
justifies everything
The mutie is just a convenient punching bag with high hp so lucky crits don't influence the dps testing as much. You can compare the dps to anything else in the maniac type using the numbers you get.
So with this, we can figure out that a recon 2 has about 481 dps, gray and talentless against maniacs at ideal range. Which is about 1/4 the dps of the columnus IAG by the same metric.
Okay what if
Scavenger did the inverse, so it would give more ammo to weapons with low max ammo and less to weapons with high max ammo

No, I get it. Recon Lasguns dogshit
Then every scav vet would run bolter, plasma, or revolver
This is why I use the 7a
everyone shits on it cause "2 ammo per shot reeeee"
then cries about not doing any damage 
That's the second most dogshit one
I use the recon because I have dogshit internet. If my internet was consistent I'd use a kantrael when I'm not using laspistol lol
I only use it on adds and elites
Cause I'm not shooting a pack of ragers with it
Its a full left side weapon
just use columnus

Might I recommend an autofired mg4 to you instead
I mean, I use everything
It's the problem that even with a left side build you still gotta get weakpoint kills to gain focus
I'd rather shoot myself than slave away at one single weapon
doesn't matter, full auto zero recoil
literal skill issue if you can't manage that
it's not about missing
I've been running the weapon swap keystone lately. Shits fun.
I dunno maybe it's just the damage that I'm viewing
No, I mean the 7a, or any recon lasgun, just outright isn't good
They're all ass
I can confirm
easily the worst ranged weapons in the game by far
They are indeed all ass
I think the only thing they're better than is the Krourk Stubber

Holy fuck is the krourk stubber bad
The recon is the ranged weapon of the shovel
I'm still keeping any good ones I find for when stuff changes next but they do feel like ass in their lineup now
think will try a right side keystone recon lasgun
For the melee-ish builds, 3 toughness curios, right?
the shovels like at least decent
The crit only applies to the first shot
Or well you probably want 1 curio with extra stamina
What? Heck no.
So you'll get more dps from firing faster, which still works, but you'll blow ammo faster too

its not like ammo is an issue
It's not a PS6
You're gonna be spending a lot of time in executioner's stance
But it's servicable
grab a responsive melee weapon
More so than the recon
like chainsword

What would you change about this Cadia Mk IV Assault Chainsword?
I want to keep Bloodletter +14 Bleed Stacks from Special Attacks.
However, I don't know what the best second blessing is for this:
Rampage Hitting at least 3 enemies with an attack, increases your damage by 36% for 3 seconds.
Savage Sweep Hitting at least 3 enemies with an attack, increases your cleave by 200% for 2 seconds.
Wrath +40% Cleave on Hit. Stacks 5 times.
@junior needle maybe you can help or someone who knows what to choose. ๐
instead of power sword
yes its called a knife
with mercy killer
No real cleave, barely any more stagger, mediocre damage... eugh
I hate everything you stand for
Right side is better with single shot weapons that deal high damage
its not like ammo is an issue
Recon

the mediocre shovel damage when it crits for 1300
yea and ?
Liiike revolver
ammo grows on trees currently
You'll see
Chainswords typically want rampage and savage sweep. Wrath is a step below savage sweep due to how you lose it if you miss.
Recon is not that good on ammo conservation as a regular or helbore
Of course it depends on what difficulty you play at
I will try tac axes and combat axes too probably but thats about it
So, what curios go for mele? HP? one of each one? Stamina?
Considering you'll use more shots per bullet on a recon you're gonna burn through ammo
I only play aurics
so like I said
it doesnt matter
I would go Health, Toughness, Stamina
Aight
Those curio's will work for most builds tbh
Cause that's what I run now ๐
AND STAMINA REGEN
WHEEZE
+3 is the max, right? for Stamina?
Uhh
Last I checked it was rampage and savage sweep/wrath for ideal blessings. If you want to keep the bleed then you'll still want rampage for second, probably.
why is everyone using the helbore rn
FAr as I can tell?
Yes.
Ah good
21% for health.
cause they like being slaves to exploits

yeah well
17% for toughness.
I wish they wouldn't
Exploits?
because they've all sucked ass
Helbore has an exploit?
Yeah, you'll see what I mean. Of course you could just be the guy suctioning all the ammo (as is recon tradition) so it may not be a problem for you personally. You'll also feel the low dps.
I thought that was intended lmao 
so there is some weird shenanigans
It's the weapon specialist talent buff.
I would say is kinda bad
+25% damage to the bayonet.
I swear that's the gimick with bayonett's on weapons in most games
well in comparison to your examples of DPS I prefer to aim for headshots
They're ass
so I might get more worthwhile investment out of my ammunition
You've got the wrong gimmick
Brutal momentum?
Bm+limbsplitter
Recons naturally have low finesse modifiers, so their headshots do comparatively much less than others. Of course with headhunter you will want to aim for heads anyway.
I mean frankly you should always go for headshots
Let's just post the video again
Unless it's a mauler
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
ahh yes
Yeah, that's a little good

@midnight mortar and @junior needle thank you very much for your replies. They helped me. ๐
Oi, loyalists, any of these catch your fancy?
if the charge times didnt cancel at random times and you didnt need a mod to have actual sights it wouldnt be actual dogwater
dont worry been running colomnus without ammo aura and ammo has been fine
Here's a headshot dps comparison. It's a bit difficult to maintain 100% headshot uptime with a long ttk when it keeps moving its head.
No hellgun. I sleep.
Sidestepped would be A whole new level of important huh!?
In any case, this is far from being an instawin
That's one of the most overtuned guns currently, and also you not running it doesn't mean your teammates aren't. So games will likely still have you benefitting from it.
I would love a hell again but you would basically make the game no fun for any of your teammates.
I do think the Bayonett should benefit maybe a little from... melee mods?
Otherwise, shit, it's not that hot
still need an actual longlas
It's like, uh
SOMEHOW still not here after one karkin year
I dunno rapier and pistol from v2, you take the pistol
Maybe you use the pistol a few times
But it gains nothing
Still need a hotshot volley gun for an automatic lasgun that isn't dogshit
And the rapier is the main
Nah what you need is to cast off the falsehoods of the imperium ๐ฉ
Jk
Unless...
just find it funny how the only limitation to dps on the semi auto lasguns is legit your ability to click so getting macros is better than using the recon lasguns
thanks fatshark
I thought about the hellgun and I mean the charge shot could be a 10 round or 15 round burst
Recons are cursed and even a single one is not allowed to be good for more than a patch, and by accident
very cool
but I dunno
Macro's
?
full auto mod 
I want an option to replace the torch with a full auto mode. Seems like it would be easy enough to balance, full auto would eat through ammo like crazy. Would even be lore accurate ๐ฆ
I mean I think you can make the regular lasguns work pretty consistantly
Ooh
Eh
Skill issue if you need a macro to make a point and click semi auto weapon work ๐
"Full suits" damn loyalist machine spirit!
its not a skill issue thing
you just cant click as fast
as a program can
imagine being a chaos simp
I just don't think you need to
its legit that simple
imagine being on the same side as lorgar
Or an age issue. I hope you never have to find out
yea but compare performance of someone not using to someone who is using it
Please understand, immeasurably complex, small indie company of 180+ employees, this isn't cod, also it's snowing in sweden
shit is dumb
Worshipers of the corpse emperor are up against the god of death and decay. ๐ค
We were once blind like you.
Why couldnt they just make every gun full auto and just limit firerates and maybe add fire modes
Imagine breaking your hand for a game
Yo
is beyond my comprehension
What to put on my chainaxe?
Real OG's know
Your hopes and dream
But naw
You mean to tell me that you have NOT actually broken you finger pressing the sacred activation rune?!?!
you lost your nerve after getting mogged by lesser entities then the Cadians
You don't need to click at a million times a second to make the las gun work
At least imo
I didnt say to make it work
I say to make it better than a recon gun
๐ฅน
Well better than the recon but the recon is the worse gun this patch
The bar is verryy looow
yes and I want a cozy full auto lasgun and there isnt any without using a mod that makes the game a meme
When you compare it to the recon
so I will just run recon
Okay that's fair
and let lobbies sheethe
I won't bust someone for choosing a recon, (Just wished it was better)
wait they gutted the recon back to pre 13?
not sure why they flat nerfed everything on it when all they had to was fix the crit chains
Yeah
10/10 fatshart
whos a buttface? fatsharks a buttface. for fycking with my vets class
what bug
A different melee weapon, chainaxe is pretty dog
chainaxe is the buttface i was misatken
Columnuts is insane without dumdum
i eally wante to like chainaxe
its usable if you got a godroll
usable
I have a 545 with t4 headtaker and slaughter
If you enjoy using slow heavies for mediocre clear at all times
let the person use chainaxe
there are people with white weapons in aurics
chainaxe is the least of the worries

at a certain power the animation buggs and the cleaves dont stick on one target

Last I heard it was ignoring it's range requirement
fs coding
you need 5 stacks rouhgly on each to get the non-stick effect on attacks for chaxe
but yea, it needs either more dmg or cleave
regular axe is just goofy
though I dont think any melee weapon on vet is OP tbh
I simply do not understand why anyone would brag about using white weapons in challenge content. What's really happening is the scoreboard looks like this and the team (usually me) has to pick up the slack.
Someone was doing it earlier with some poorly rolled graia brauto
"Oh look I beat an auric with this shitty gun and didn't need any ammo pickups"

My guy you probably did NOTHING then
if you do challenge contents with white weapons then they'd better have the scoreboard to back it up xD
Oh yeah
Dum dum stacks on that tiny dude waaaayyyyy over there
I can't even see him
white weapons? is this a race thing?
I avoid aurics to dodge the chimpanzee ques
orange people > purple people > blue people > green people > white people
didn't they teach you this in school?
I had a thought about just rolling with a 4 man squad and rolling purely for the worst weapons
If part 2 of the update doesn't also include a fix for vet tree I'm gonna shit myself in protest. In fact, I've already begun protesting in anticipation
I'm sure you can beat an auric damnation but damn it's gonna take abit
i know some blue people but never met a purple
It's okay
It stacking at range isn't at odds with the tooltip, but it apparently uses the code for a zealot talent where it gives a gradually diminishing damage boost based on proximity. According to the tooltip, you shouldn't be getting buffed damage outside of 7-8m.
I think people are overeacting, although focus needs another pass
Tell that to my underwear. Thanks FS

smonk grenade
i farted in a heresy quickplay and it turned out to be a poxburster\
nah its a big tell if all the builds literally avoid all keystones, you know, the ones they just released and hyped up.
those underpants made the trash'
they need to pull a SEGA and actually bring in fans
A noble sacrifice
I mean
Take it down
And Weapon spec
Are very good
and not another sweedish yahoo with no background in anything useful
whats worse is im a girl an they were pink and the up he butt kind
Based
*yes, you cannot use keystones
It doesn't mean the keystones are useless
if they were very good they would be used
they are mediocre at best
Weapon spec has enabled Revolver more
sample size my dude
Okay I'm saying it
mine are all over th place i just cant gt th effect im loking for
dozens of people on the funni places are cranking out builds with no keystones
witness me!
The average player who isn't researching all these break points or who know the meta
and everyone follos them
i use the grenade keystone and get every subnode
will use the keystones
hell, even us in this discord
We're the minority
Of all darktide players
i had a larger than ususl slice of brie, witness me!\
he looked right at me, i am awaited in valhalla
oh nononononono
still that is the number of people who actually looooks
huh
There are WAY more people using keystones than not, I gurantee you
or at least my underpants are awaed in valhalla!
they blocked "mong oloid"
im actually crying
HOW
who is getting offended by this
Mong isss a slur
the mongolians\
Just throw out the R word about the same effect ๐
they wou;d be the ones getting insulted
The problem with the keystone lies in:
- The points it takes to get to them. Trim the useless fat
- Needed tweaks, particularly for left keystone
- The fact that FS put off including keystone because they wanted ones that didn't shoehorn you into specific weapons to make use of them, then eventually provided keystones that do exactly that.
There are like 4ish decent builds around keystones, each benefitting from very specific weapons.
not even close
Okay to be fair
The right side keystone
And ... the left side yeah
Mong-loid is the same word as the R word
It is
It's just a different term to call someone with downs
no?
i always thought the r word ment someone like donald rump not a differently abled person\
what?
Mong-oloid is a racial term
look we blanket ban slurs
this is like, basic official discord word list shit
that blanket is the size of nebraska
It's a racial slur
And it can also describe someone with downs
Yes, a racial slur is gonna be banned
I can call anyone a poopoo head
Ah yes classic veteran chat 

Im I going to say thats offensive?????

Can I report someone else for something I said
No man
yeah but censoring the talent Chonk in their Armor is hilarious
you ffffffucking simpleton, yyou ppppphilinstine
Someone getting bent out of shape about learning a word theyโve used is actually a slur
look Shrew if you don't understand the diff between slurs and generic mean words then that's your problem lol
Classic
imma take a lap
rq
butface is my favorite
I wish to note that down syndrome and mental "R WORD" are not the same condition nor even really related. ๐ค
I just googled it ๐ฅน
That's what it told me
Don't shoot the messenger

I will shoot all messengers
im readying my bolter
Who else is there to shoot? Nobody. Sorry messenger
just call everyone a greasy buttface and all will be right with the world
To bad they made the mistake and sent a messenger
Messenger had a hard life
Executing my accountant after seeing my tax return
Ugh, well aktshually using buttface as an insult is demeaning to buttfaced people
someone tell me why I should use the shovel over the caxe?
heheeeee
10x lifetime perma ban for using a slur
I don't like greasy as a pejorative. I'm very greasy
i got rid of my mike fror all the swearing i do in a game so i never talk anymoe
i sound uneducated\
What the fuck are you using to get that much overkill damage ?
It's more fun and thus better, plus cool crowd control and special to the face stops muties in their tracks
reliable cleave, faster, better defense, bonk
Shovel can be better if you aren't taking attack speed in the tree, if you are then caxe is very good
overkill can be easy to farm on certain loadouts
Smart people curse more. That's the lie I tell after I string multiple sentences together comprised entirely out of four letter words anyway
Curses are just sentence flavouring
its the columnus
B)
when your weapon can shred elites you'll be getting a shitload of overkill on anything weaker
Columnus more like bum numbness, is what the enemies will get after you sit them down with it
LMAO!
Hello?
Guys?
Please respond
if you want overkill damage
It's pretty managable
I am too used to lasguns 
And well considering most of the time you're hip firing from mid-range
That's faiiir
I kinda learned that it's just easier to fire the columnus from the hip
And then for snipers you aim down
damage dump stat ree
I only get a burst of recoil at the start, then it's pretty goddamn accurate
Also worse under some movement scenarios
This post was fact checked by true Veterans
Sadly, with so much ROF my instict in burst firing 
Funnily enough
I am using a mod
to make all autoguns look and sound like lasguns 
I end up crouched and using the burst to correct crotch shots to head shots
Me, who use the Boltgun
What the fuck
You hellgun fixation is getting worse!
Why would you do ballistic weapons dirty like that
PewPew mod is amazing
I have my slug shot in the shotgun do the plasma effect 
Understandable
Because outside of bolters they don't have a reason to exist
Kill enemies with metal projectiles travelling at high velocity like the God Emperor designedly
Gimme my pewpew
ITS ALWAYS GETTING WORSE

If fatshark doesn't gives me hellgun
I will do bootleg one
Because I am not a savage
Ignore my melee of preference being the chainsword
Smh my head
I both love and hate the chain weapons. Hate them because they feel like baseball bats, love them because with enough damage you'll cleave through 4 or 5 enemies regardless
typically wasting ranged on basic frontline
I hate how they sound unreved
a lot of overkill is not a good sign
Like it sounds like something is about to break
unless you are just memin on mal for a rush or something
It's not about efficiency, it's about sending a message
Ew
Your honor, he looked at me funny
There's no 'cut' yknow? The blade doesn't swing through people, unless it's a kill hit, and instead it just kinda bounces off people?
okay maybe just a little bit of tech heresy for me...
you havent seen shit
I guess Space Marine gave me a false perception of what chain weapons would actually feel like
I can't wait for SM2
Nids are meeeeeh but there's no way there won't be a secondary antagonist
There are already Thousand Sons teaser
I take everything back
Also it affects globably in my pov
so all people using autoguns
in my pov is lasgun spam 
What even is that gun plasma?
Helbore but has the audio and visual bullet of plasma
just for funsies
Now do everything bolter
I can do it
I want to see a bolter with Columnus mag dump
Uhh, sadly the mod for some reason doesn't let me add the audio to full auto
Bolter only allows semiauto guns for some reason
Sadge
Sadge indeed
It makes sense I guess
my friend asked me the same 
Chaos again would be kinda boring ngl
Personally was hoping for Tau
I can do the Bolter with las effect only to do the ultimate TechHeresy 
Lascannon time
We need League of Votan so we have DRG crossover
I forbid you
Try me
Boltgun is a special kind of ballistic
The fuck you I'm a miniature RPG with built-in gyroscope aiming high explosive round kind of ballistic
calm down, Erebus
Oh god is really a bootleg lascannon 
See but are bolters even actually classed as ballistic weapons?
They're fully auto RPGs
Forgive me Emperor for I have sinned
Turn a plasma into a melta
And it does less dmg to revolver
I mean ballistic is just anything that is not energy weapon
Can't if there is no projectile in game
XD
Is melta ballistic or energy
Energy
Glorious
When will we see bolter be great again
I am thinking of leaving it like that 
Bolter can use just a tiny bit more buff
It's quite strong, I would say A tier right now
But what about the ammo
Would love to see it in S- tier
If you run Survivalist you'll be 95% okay
Without Survivalist it sucks yeah
It still sucks with survivalists
I could change plasma to las, but plasma is enough energy for my brain to be happy
Depends what you're shooting at
Maybe I am just too used to the old ammo refund
I only play aurics
And most of the time the ammo is not enough
Well me too
If you're targeting specials only, literally no way to run out of ammo. If you're targeting regular shooters and specials? Probably gonna have some issues if you're not sprinting around for ammo pick ups
have you considered using less ammo
Nah
I use Boltgun almost exclusively for Auric T5/Maelstrom
Itโs like unless you leave some ammo alone
I am just to used to before I guess
Boltgun would love slightly faster draw, I would say 30% faster is fair and 17 bullet mag.
Draw?
Yup
What like to take it out?
Eeeeh
No trust me Boltgun needs it to be more mainstream
Which is better at all ways
Just a little more
If you swap weapons and hold down sights, as you've spotted a regular shooter about to take aim and fire at you, you will 100% of the time shoot first
a bolter getting outdone by a revolver is pretty funky ngl
I mean now revolver and plasma guns are way better
It's not for shooters, it's to fast react to flamers/trapper
I pretend the revolver is a Bolt Pistol
Or stealth ragers
Reload speed can be compensated with the 30 on elites kills
Not at boss killing
Gunners are hit or miss
Trappers you just need better ears
They aren't exactly quiet
Yea but then you need to dump two mags into the boss at least
I don't think you understand the scenarios I'm trying to describe
Revolver is so busted
Oh you said flamers. Same deal as trappers lmao
Iโd rather just draw my power sword and melee
It's not about DODGING them, it's about KILLING them especially mid horde
Even if you hear them they are talking about how slow it is to pull out the weapon lol
You still need to waste time switching to it
It's reaction speed tho. You hear the guy coming up, you immediately swap and turn around. You'll be ready to shoot every time
That is assuming they are approaching you alone
when we getting the 4-shooter and 6-shooter variants
Number of enemies doesn't matter lmao
If you're dealing with other threats then it's obviously way more clunky than quick swapping to revolver, popping them off and going back to other problems
At that point its more a case of how fast you can snap off headshots
that or all columnus
I tried the columnus now, sadly didn't like it
My dude
This is such a "just don't get hit kill everything" advice
I don't even think I've ever seen take a swing before lmao
Ugh. Revolvers being meta in a 40k game
just kill the trapper lol
Ok if you're dealing with a mixed horde in front of you and a trapper is approaching from behind, how can you say the swap speed isn't a problem lol
just don't get hit
Take the Boltgun for a swing in Maelstrom and report back on how you feel
Because you're complaining about weapons not being perfect in every situation lmao
You wanna avoid the situation the weapon s SPECIFICALLY designed to be bad in? Play better
revolver is perfect 
Begone cowboy fanboy

okay, what difficulty do you play in? what winrate?
It's not a problem of being perfect in every scenario, but you were implying the swap speed isn't a weakness lol
That sound cues negate the problem
It does not
show me the last 10 games you played before making such inflammatory comments about my skill level
lmao
It's a weakness of the gun
It's not with planning or skill
i play bolter near exclusively in Auric T5/Mael
i thought diamantine was hader t get, im drowning in it and cant seem to keep in plasteel
maybe i know a thing or two about the gun
I don't have stat mod so I couldn't tell you actual win rate. But I bounce between 4 - 5 aurics
and like most everyone already told you how bad the draw speed feel
He has a pass
4s are my main. Probably 60ish winrate
That's affirmative, we're waiting for a resource to spend diamantine on
bruh I wish I could show you my last 10 games but they bombed so hard I had to go touch grass and get back into valheim
I'm sorry but if you play mostly on 4s and not mael 5s then you have no idea wtf you are talking about
i deleted my beta vet and started over and i got alot more points for the tree
also I said Bolter is probably A tier, i would like to see it in S- with Plasma and Revolver being S
I want to play T5s but I am waiting for Hellgun to do it in style 
just a little draw speed and slighly higher mag
Yes, and I exclusively play mael 5 lol
Recommened shovel blessings?
that's my proposal, i didn't even "complain" lol
Somebody the other days said that sunder can pen through bulwarksโ shield
wait' there are other game modes than auric 5?
let's balance the revolver by adding a reload minigame to not fumble and drop rounds 
I tried it and doesnโt look like so
uncanny/deci
You got this from that one game where you have one limb
Uncanny Strike + Decimator, acceptable placeholders are Hammerblow and Skullcrusher
Just gonna assume the majority of people in here are in school still and don't work 12 hour shifts in a kitchen lol
It's more scarce but also much less used in practice than plasteel
Like we don't all have the time to no life games anymore
I wonder how well take a swing works in practice
Wish I could. I absolutely would love to no life dark tide all day
No bro you don't understand, if I can play 8 hours a day so can you
Fuck off with the "omg you have no life" adhoms
What do you do between 10 PM and 6 AM
I mean that's fair sure but when people say Boltgun draw is a little too slow then maybe you shouldn't respond with "just listen to cue and play better."
I have a job too you fuck
this plus these
Lol
your mother
kek
But it's literally the answer lol
Oh
my mother
Sorry for being good at the game?
So that's where she goes
our mother, comrade
I thought it was bingo
no it was me
It's not the answer when you have games as fucked up as this sometimes lol
You hear the que, you react. Dodge away and pull the weapon out iunno bro
You're Bingo?
Yes.
okay then we have nothing to dicuss if you are unwilling to listen to people's experience
Just the fact that you need to dodge means you spend time not killing
My family withering as I load into another mael auric
China
They haven't eaten in days
Is it a 12 hour shift in a school kitchen?
Both Bolter and Lucius draw feel terrible
Auric t5 has so many enemies on some modifiers that it is much weaker in that regard
Presently its a sushi kitchen
You don't need to nolife the game to recognize that
But I'm home now so I'm out. Gnight
Please just go try HISTG T5 with the Bolter and try to do the things you are saying. Every weapon should have a weakness sure, but there is such a thing called "overdoing."
There's also such a thing as "poor game design" and balancing weapons with jank is an example of that
howโs you know I was Chinese
It's like saying the Recon is in a good place right now, you just need to play better.

No you don't get it we just have no life :^)

hear me out boys
Anyone who plays t5 just has no life
an event where the party size is 10 and it's all veterans
You have to play at least 12 hrs a day to be good at it
Me who spend 10 hours working everyday
Ngl bolter swap speed is ass
kek
bolter swap is ass
if you really try itโs usable
The mag size, reload and hipfire don't help
but itโs still ass
i cant use the bolter or flamer because of how bad they feel
YES
Is bolter really ass
i think reload and hipfire should be the same so it's not too strong
but swap speed and mag size can use a little love
I don't think it's that bad
Or does plasma and revolver just need a nerf
the bolter isnโt that ass
It's a weapon clearly in the era when DT had less enemy density
Cadia stands type beat
but the bolter swap is ass
the recoil has been reduced significantly this patch
Plasma's fine
๐ค
Revolver is like bolter but better and easier to use
Revolver's maybe abiiiit strong
Bolter should just one shot everything
Thats what SM fanboys had taught me
I wouldn't mind revolver losing some cleave
But our bolter ain't an astartes bolter
๐ฅน
And someone brought up bullet magnetism yesterday
why don't the heretics have boltguns
I don't mind magnetism going
Mine is now a bootleg lascannon
The Moebian 6th didn't have bolt guns
I like bolter because FUCK CRUSHERS THEY CAN SUCH MY WEENIR
hell they don't even have many plasmaguns
Hot
such my weiner
So they didn't have heavy weapon teams...
Moebian need plasma gunners that can explode

shoot i wish we could shoot flamer backpacks to make them go boom
If weeee try to take the specials as what the Moebian 6th had I mean, how'd they take out the Lemon russes
Wth
who needs heavy weapon teams when youโre armed with a shovel
Is a tragedy they dont
Also the Moebian 6th deployed alot of anti-infantry gear
They stun lock it with a hundred gunners
Grenadiers with INCIND GRENADES
Oh right wait you right
In kinda makes sense to focus on antiinfantry
Yeeahhh
imagine if we have zealot fire nade
an incendiary grenade on a tank's vent intakes would fuck it up wouldn't it
It'll clear out the corridor that's for sure
