Oh well
Oh I have a build I like finally
no im not kidding with all the stamina
or the stam regen
just heard a scab shooter react to a player saying they were low on ammo saying "No more ammo?! >:D"
the idea is to blast out constant crits with the lasgun
they keep adding more voice lines and reactivity and i love it
oh also devils claw is fucking best weapon ever because parry
why was i never told
i feel so betrayd
kekw
i always go for more weapon variety
Woops wrong sword lol
Wondering if I should reroll left or just keep right, still farming for Rampage IV
its such a joke they give out garbage skins as a escuse to not give the people their aquilas. and im not even affected but i hope you guys get your aquilas dont give up this is a fucking scam
No way, really?
You get used to it with Fatshark. š
Keep right for now
Shredder is too low on the left
Huh... well that was a really weird chain of whatever up above on the plasma gun. I all can say is blaze away is good, 73% charge rate is the best charge rate current, I hope they fix that shit shit bug so you dont need check rolls in the pins and that I'm not sure you should ever pick flak as a perk
The right's better for now.
yeah, you normally dont hear them get a chance to speak
or speak loud enough to be heard under the sound of battle
You sure it wasn't one of their lines they say when they run out of ammo?
tbh i would wait untiol the next vet rework is done i made so many weapons for vet by now which are garbage by now
it was a reactionary line, yeah
they have lines for suppressed players, players trying to reviving allies, stuff like that
i also remember a scab calling out "They're reviving the brute!"
because we were trying to get our ogryn up
Meh
Iāve heard ātheyāve mended the brute!ā After the ogryn was back up
Patches will eventually bring stuff back into style
Welcome to the world of cyclical balancing. Nothing is true, everything is tentative.
I mean yeah obvi the weapon system is ass but š¤·āāļø it is what it is
More like most things are tentative but whatever.
just made this plasma lmao
i just make weapons work as cheap as possible and save my stuff until they made up their mind with the weapons etc
Seriously? I have never heard a single one of these lines before.
This sounds crazy.

Quotes said by the traitor guard riflemen.
Timestamps
00:00 Alerted
01:00 Player Idle
01:35 Player Low Health
01:48 Player Low Ammo
02:04 Taking Cover
03:12 Taking Position
Yeah what the fuck
some of them anyway
The hell
This would add so much extra life into the game.
All I ever hear are the alerted dialogues and taking cover/position.
it's just that we don't give them a chance to live long enough to say them 
and yeah, spotting/repositioning lines take priority because they barely have a requirement to play
Hard to say you need cover when a gunlugger ogryn points his burst shotty down the little hallway you're in with your buds
Also they will say a lot of these lines out of ear shot because the scab ai is smart enough to stick to cover in the distance until you are out in the open or pinned by specials
"A-"
Deserved for using knife on vetš
Worth picking this up for melk bucks?
Just stab harder
Bricked
4 for 4 useless perks and blessings
Ah rip. I'll hold off then
Melk has delivered
neat
yep, new-nu-new tree coming december
Next update
in news yea
In news it only says : new rework
I feel like i as a veteran can do better dmg wise. Thoughts? this is auric hi intense
I mean like what they actually going to change
specifically on the rework no, there is no detail - that will be coming with patch notes as always
Welp hadron about to brick the shit out of this wish me luck
That is uh. That is less bricked than I thought it would be lol. That seems alright, what do I do with it?
Prob change Fire Frenzy and Infested, not sure what Blessing tho
Whatās this btw
This ain't Zealot chat šæ
begone femboy
š no
keep that to your other half
day 234784 trying to roll take a swing IV, I ended up with deci 4 uncanny 4 again
only they should see those comfy programmer socks
Yea definitely
Only detail is that the focus is on making the keystones easier to get to
i feel like this weapon has shortcomings i cant really get around no matter how i build
š
Well I run plasma gun and power sword
None are ideal but still can deal tons of dmg
Of course melee
longlas leaked
Oh btw guys
What are the best guns for Vet?
the best gun obvously is the helbore and plasma gun
Does larger ram helping the game to load faster?
Itās kinda weird my labtop loads really fast live under 30s but my pc takes years to get in
do you have like 4GB of ram in total?
32 on my labtop 16 on my Pc
Then thatās weird cuz the ssds on both my labtop and my pc sucks
you may just have faster ram or a faster cpu on laptop
Yet my pc takes like 3-5 mins to get in the game
Don't hurt me 
when is the Part 2 update coming out? its already december š
most likely the 5th?
what perks do you guys think i should put on this power sword?
fr they already behind schedule smh
Weird
Looks like
4th final testing, 5th release
Brb refunding Darktide after 500 hours
I m gonna change my ssd too if that solves the problem
only 500? definitely slacking there
I m 527
The damage numbers only tell a small slice of the story. Getting the expanded scoreboard that shows which ranged enemies, specials, etc. you killed will give a better picture.
Brutal momentum and maniac
Coming next week tm
Yea the dmg can be misleading
i hope this new map is an investigation š
Elites -> Maniacs/Carapace
Supercharge -> Brutal Momentum
Cuz some ppl just dump on horde
1 investigation mission makes getting the penance so shit
Right, they said December right?
not WHICH December
got you this time Fatshark
Probably around xmas
ty :)
week of xmas is risky af, any grave issue that spontaneously occurs, wouldn't be fixed until like mid january
didn't stop them last year lol
Have zero faith in their working schedule
yeah imagine they pop it out on the 24th then go on break till jan 1st
Nah, remmeber
leave the game in mayhem 4 fun
Their Christmas break is way longer than that
But this one is gucci
i think last update we got like a week after the trailer
You sure about that
wont be surprised if its monday morning
SHit went like
We bitched a lot last year about their christmas vacation
late feb
just so they get the surge in players before xmas break
Dec 1st 2024
Who knows
They legit last year left the game to die for what felt 2 months
Itās okay tho
Just fucked off
If they break the game I can just enjoy the break anyway
any of us who got the game last december shouldnt care anymore
XD
Something something worker rights
weve been through it all
this worth buying?
Rogue Trader is next week

Wait what
no
Already?
Pretty much and even then it was really uh slow going pretty much till the talent update in october
for power sword you want slaughter/bm + pc
Don't be a smart ass about it 
They barely said jackshit back then, with the massive bleed of players it was a bad time.
"We swear we ain't stopping dev for the console port"
*Another Week *
Swears
Me when making updates and porting a game isnt easy
fellas, I think I don't like revolver
Unless something changed, ROgue trader is scheduled for 7th
surgical does not jive with me
Game should have been in the oven for longer
Dont worry there will be a new one out soon
Speaking of which I havenāt play BG3 yet
Oh absolutely
might fit you betta
Canāt wait to buy it, play it for 2 hours, and put it in the backlog
The game needed another year before it launched
do et, great game
Im glad its better now
There is not being easy
and there is lying blatantly about it 
Everything up until patch 13 was basically and open beta that we all paid for
But to try and insult the devs for taking their time and not rushing out future updates
At least as an xbox player i never experienced that shit
I was having a lotta fun with pathfinder
So it launched for me in an okay state
I did the same with BG3 after 8 hours 
Gonna try BG3 and Rouge trader maybe like around the new year
Launch date was rough
When I am finally in vocation š¦
this game on launch was an aboslute mess
Yeah darktide launch was so funny. Like getting subpar frames in hab dreyko
old mutants, unstagerable dogs..
Theyāre taking quite a few time, dark tide too
I couldn't launch T4 
so much other crazy shit
the performance at launch was something else
and then they started optimizing and somehow unoptimizing with every other patch
Oh yeah Heresy difficulty bugged to be always hi intensity was pretty funny too
mutants had balerina footwork
Iād go from 60fps one patch to 20-30 the next
Dogs gave me nightmares
it was a 70% chance your push wouldnt work lol
AMD users just not being able to play for a time because someone fucked the amd code
so if you hear a dog you were like oh shit
Still the game is horribly optimized
yo uhad to kill it or direct push it
Could also throw the game by shooting a poxburster once, and give it stagger immunity from that.
AND THEN THEY ADDED THE WORLD EVENT OF THE DOG SPAM

I LOVE IT FOR SURE
But itās kinda weird
Oh my pc ultra high and lowest have the same fps
Lol
It just sucks
60 but when horde
Especially the new map carnival
Is horrible
Rip
Man, I heard back in the pearl clutch event (
) some saying they would have preferred playing early than getting the aquilas
My ass
they have no fucking clue how it was
I started playing dark tide since this August when it was on sale

Holy fuck
Since then game been okay
classic 500 hour heresy main player comment
fr
if there was more early testing it would have been a lot better
The warp takes everything it seems
but from what i remember fs had a gun to their head to release the game
yeah
but I will bitch for millenia to the higher ups 
But its come a mile
Well, according to old Fatshark fans, games being released like this without learning from their previous works is a common thing lol
its in a great state now
None of the launch problems showed up in the closed beta because 70% of the game wasnāt there
Any VT2 vets can tell us how VT2 was at launch?
other than silent trappers and shooters full staggering you the games really good
Similar
Took longer for fatshark to start pumping content though
Yep, I did a bit of research after trying to process how much of a fuck up it was
Fatshark just sucks at releasign games, and fuck off dev wise until console port
But vt2 started with more content
DT should have been released as it is now, almost a year later after its release
Canāt wait to play Darktide for an extra year when Darktide 2 releases then!
but unfortunately it didnt but we are here now
November 30th 2024 release 
I believe there are no plans for DT2
At all
theyre going to milk this game like VT2
Yeah, but when the time comes
gonna have like 10 dlcs eventually
I think if Darktide had 6-8 more months, we couldāve had a far better launch
Unless this will be the Live Service game for the next 10 years
Life Support
aslong as our dumbasses keep buying their cosmetics
Another year and it woulda launched how Patch 14 was, WITH the vet keystones, and Traitors Curse woulda been the first big content update
Well, Iām not innocent. I paid for the commissar fit so uh
imagine 2 years from now and we get some tau or necron dlc copium
hell no
Neither Tau nor Necron fit the gameplay
Iām still surprised people actually bought the dollar store ācommissarā stuff
Like at all
Game is teasing some xeno stuff; the PA in the mourningstar said āpossible xeno sighting in the deep hivesā or something
Genestealers
tyranids are mos tlikley ?
idk who else is in the tyranid universe
im not a nerd like others here
but bring them all in
Nah I was keeping my own bad joke of whispering GSC and running away 
Tyranids per se, are too much
Genestealers that are some type of "subfaction" of them, yes
Iām not a wh lore expert, but a daemonhost and beast of nurgle appearing in tertium should mean thereās something brewing within right?
40k lore is so deep, they could proably bring in anyone and somehow make it make sense from the lore
that can be just chaos cultists doing their things
Some Psyker quotes imply there is something much worse down there
in the underhive
so that would be fun
true
right now scab and dreggs are boring as shit
I can solo him 
When does things have to get bad enough that Space Marines should get involved? Though the Cicatrix Maledictum or whatever is stopping us from getting reinforcements aye
Iām an Xbox player so havenāt seen many cosmetics, are there any good Helbore skins at all in any Aquila sets?
not any helbore skins i dont think
I was wondering
Weapon skins have largely disappeared from the shop so
Did that Cadian heavy flak armor ever get released?
Damn thatās a bummer
tbh adepta sororitas is prob more fitting than space marines
that would be super cool too
considering they have to purge a hive city
I seee
We are Ordo Hereticus anyways
Nope
Want
The most likely to show up would be grey knights considering how many demons are popping up but right now no one can call for help
My guessing is they reserve the good shit for predicted spikes of people
Does anything ever get recycled too?
so next store rotation is gonna be good after the big patch
Like say will the krieg set ever re appear in the shop?
Most stuff in the store is recycled
they will in a year
Maybe several months later
Full price though 
so VT2 has 18 DLCs
Why do more cosmetics when you can do one
recycle for eternity with 3 colors 
16 DLCs 2 FLCs
Has the yellow steel legion set been in the store?
I know at launch it was
By anytime after?
Nope
The per dead end klast? Yeah
3 DLCs add entire new mission sets or an entire new faction and story
I just want his lasgun varient
It has appeared like thrice I think
Its neat
i hope they go DEEP with this game
VT2 has been ongoing since 2018
This will be going for awhile
i had this on my wishlist for like 2 years
Letās do a little compare, VT2 came out 2018, and is still being supported this year
oh yeah its looking great now
And?
Not like Fatshark has any other cash cows to milk
its a tide game so its super grindy, not many people like that but those who stay are more dedicated

Darktide only came out this year last year, so weāve got a lot of support left to come
Tide game is grindy? X to doubt
As long as FS doesn't do cosmetic upgrades I'm happy, especially the ones that didn't give you everything when you bought it
2012 was 5 years ago š¤Æ
Fr fr
2016 was 4 years ago 
I would prefer cosmetic upgrades you can get whenever you want over the fomo shop
Kinda true yeah
Hoping for an armor system
i missed the purple gnome hat for zealot
Light, flak, and carapace
š
doubtful given how much money the fomo shop rakes it in
between these two, which is better?
Left
If it didnt work, they wouldn't have put it in
they gave everyone dockets in that bundle thingy
Fatshark is only competent in milking money
despite being a traitor, give her more cosmetics to sell
Untrue
The cash shop is not even optimized to be making as much money as possible
^^
it could be a battlepass
they could be milking a LOT harder
god please no battlepass
I think we got off easy with a fomo shop
dairy farms
god emperor* my bad!
They should hire you to double their profits then
iād, actually prefer that
shameless milking
every two weeks refreshing making it incredibly hard to get any item you want
You can compare the cash shop to other major mtx heavy games and itās not even close
Itās unoptimized enough to the point where people that want to buy cosmetics are not given the option to buy what they want and end up buying nothing
character effects.
I probably would have gotten the krieg cosmetic, if the coat was allowed to hang freely, instead of being buttoned up to your knees or something
For one that buys nothing, there's 10 that buy something
Just look at the lobbies
as much as I hate to admit it, the cash shop in this game isnāt nearly as bad as it is in other games
Limited rotation and Monopoly money (aquilas) are the worst things about it
I just find it funny nobody ever complained about games like path of exile charging $40 for an ugly armor set that you canāt even try on
Doesnāt matter if the game is f2p or not
Or⦠valve charging you money to open your loot crates
š¤¢
And that was back when tf2 cost money to play!
brb battlepass moment

I'm still miffed they squished my bag
I probably would have gotten the krieg skin if it was 2500 aquillas
I just want more wastelander gear for vet
one day I might actually spend my pre-order aquillas
i think its more the many bad decision fatshark did
the state of the game at "release"
giving early adopter less quilas than late adopters
the many bad changes
weapon rng
people asked fatshark so long to do changes
and they keep ignoring it
Game released way earlier than it should have, which had knock-on effects for the gameās dev cycle
i dont dislike the cashshop per say and i agree the aquila and fomo stuff is the worst of it
The amount of bitching just to get numbers in the stat bars
I think itās less that they outright ignored requests and more that theyāre likely a year+ behind dev cycle
Either that, or the gears have already been set in motion and they canāt change course easily
ik and you are right but they did release it so they need to deal with the consequences
A lot of game dev canāt change tracks spontaneously
Despite the nearly a year's worth of delays already. Not a good sign for how internal management handles itself.
Thereās a good chance the carnival maps were already in development a year ago
Considering how the music for it was in the release soundtrack
isnt this all par for the course with fatshark though?
The offices must be a firestorm of a mess
Itās par for the course for game dev in general
It is very very rare for games to release without tons of cut content
Historically, too
Sadly yes despite 2 games of the same genre under their belt.
Thatās not even a recent thing
Back in the day, studios would release unfinished/cut content in the form of expansion packs and charge you full price for it again
Like itās understandable to get upset and cynical over the state of the game
As good as it is currently, and as much potential it has to be even better
tbh it just makes me sad i would love to see the game thrive more
more active player etc
DT is always gonna be fairly niche
Itās surprising to see it as active as it is honestly
Oh it is thriving rn thatās for sure
First year was bad yea but a LOT better rn
Itās a niche appeal setting, and system requirements are high
And the game has a high skill cap for your average player
its thriving like crazy
youre right gameplay wise
It is doing very good right now
Itās just not going to reach battlebit numbers or whatever for the reasons I outlined above
also auric was a good decision
And thatās fine
i just queued into the auric maelstrom and they had 6 total blessings between the 3 of them š
Auric was what brought me back into the game
maybe they could go the fortnite route, put in all kinds of tie ins to up the acvtive player count
Not just gameplay wise
We got a ton more players and the game has a decent popularity rn
queueing maelstrom t5 with 1 blessing items is a sure way to win
Pickle Rick as a reject, Ogryn nicki minaj
Darktide is steam global topseller #39
The main reason I stopped playing on launch and went back to VT is that Iād get thrown into low-intensity damnation nonstop
And that was boring
Hey I already see Uncle Ruckus and Heihachi in this game
yes the past 3 months lets hope it stays that way and fatshark keeps bringing out good patches frequently
Iād say the crossovers are already happening!
Keep em coming I says
that explains these queues
Haha
Yea
Fast queue
Lower avg player skill lvl
And thatās not counting the Xbox & game pass players
A couple of my friends play on Xbox
is the little circular icon with the hashmarks xbox or gamepass?
Itāll take time for the new players to improve to the hardcore playerbaseās skill lvl
Thatās non-steam
Could be MS store, game pass (console/PC), or Xbox console
a mutant spawns and the psyker on my team just runs into a corner looking around
this games hallarious sometimes
ya gotta lugh
legit level 34
Oh yeah Iāve seen a few HUNKs too
Stealth vets with gas mask and krieg gear
Knife and autopistol
Yeah honestly some of the psyker gear looks more like his armor lol
Maybe if we get the Enforcer armorā¦
Steel Legion would look a lot like him if it were black
Not sure why but zealots consistently have better looking armor than vet in the shop
Zealots have our Moebian 21st set
Is it so hard to ask for one vet armor set from the shop where he actually wears armor that covers the whole body
Meanwhile, we need more full cover ogryn armor sets
Once you get into things like carapace armour, you cease being a guardsman and start being a tempestus scion. Not saying it wont ever happen, but probably not soon
Well I wana be a kasrkin
Meanwhile ogryn gets a space marine skin
Doesnāt need to be carapace armor, full body flak armor is fine but itās just not there
Only the free armor sets actually cover your whole body
Idk why cash shop skins must give us sleeveless vet
Skinny sleeveless vet
meanwhile zealot has literal plate mail
do I change wrath or supercharge for power cycler?
wrath
You'd always want power cycler
Zealot armor stuff are so cool
nvm supercharge
ive had the same problems but if you play auric it gets better tbh
Auric is fine but doesnāt give more plasteel than regular
sadly yes
hope they patch it in but maybe it attracs players again then who are not ready for it yet
Call of Duty is the answer, must be cool for the kids, rambo aesthetics
hey fellas:
COD mostly doesnāt sell those skins now
The tactical gear on cod skins look better than skinny sleeveless vet in darktide
idk
Will just get flooded by Orcs or Spiders
How about the Diablo 4 skins 
Yea, not every skin is like that
too greedy to thrive
idc that I mispelled his name
peter turbo*
PeurtoRico
i mean they do well rn but theyare already on the decline again the need to put up some good patches to retain players
ofc its on the decline game everything about the game except the core gameplay loop is a fucking slop
and as if thats not enough they shoved crossplay down on our throats
its gonna be that kind of game
where its kept on life support via content drops
what i hate the most is that console can turn xplay off and pc players cant
also which is better, mk3 or mk6 PS?
the world doesnt work like that
Why is crossplay a bad thing?
itsnot
never said its a bad thing but you should give people the option
i personally rather wait a few minutes to get a good lobby working
I'm expected to put up with players who shit up my experience
Play with friends? Idk?
said players are priviledged to massive amounts of free currency
have the option to disable crossplay
they left because bad decisions š
ok I'll only get to play the game I paid for when my friends are online, very smart solution lmao
Oh lol
you see this happens with friends when bad decisions keep beeing made
PS 3 or 6 moveset better?
i like the 3 more
Apparently the mk6
but i recommend buy a grey and test the moveset in meatgrinder
Idk its not the end of the world having console joes to carry
the attitude is the problem
first week was the worst tbh toxic larries that die constantly
and you give them tipps
and they insult you
the message you're given is that you're now second class player as a pc steam copy owner
More classes to buy like v2 would be nice
Its kinda normal business practice to make sales and promotions for new players
they are not in the state to make new classes rn. i agree it would be nice in future but they are so far behind with content
i mean there are rumors about genestealers
Well you canāt really force people to not be douchebags so just, donāt take it so seriously?
they also have dialog lines for that
how this set lookin chiefs
That proba won't be out until near end of next year, who knows
Cool drip
power cycler 3
i recommend to try and gamble get cycler 4
Is that the killshot uniform
that was my gripe too reee
i use the same psword skin tho looks awsome
yes it is
had to lawbringer with a group of pals twice and pray i got it the second time lel
Forgot the reqs for it, was it no melee damage taken on malice and above?
ye
finish a heresy mission with no ammo remaining, 90% accuracy
actually i lied i did it with plasma gun
the window of opportunity has passed
i want a pearl trinket at least
I have a question, more of a matter of opinion
do vets other melee options, in your honest opinions, outclass psword without power cycler?
as an ogryn main they did well for it, otherwise yeah the vanguard stuff was meh
this is what i used before i just rolled that power sword and it served me quite well
outclass i can't particularly comment
oh yeh no need to convince me I have a psword with power cycler 4 (and hate it)
Use the catachan mk4
I just wanna know if anyone else hates it without even knowing they do
i just can't get a cycler 4 reee
maybe sew a little bit of chaos
ngl powercycler 4 was the only thing i was lucky ever in darktide i got it in the first week of release
on my first decent psword
Did they say when patch16 will drop
sometime in december
they wont give a more accurate date to have some paddle room
Last time we got patch announcement it came 4 days after
ids rather wait a bit longer and get something more refined
the new map looks nice but damn the fps tank there
if you play auric damnation and get a big fps drop that can be death
the joys of a brand new rig don't ask me how my wallet's dealing
my pc aint bad but the fps drop is very noticabler
LOL. That meme is 100% accurate when I tell people about Grenadier 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDuUTC4P-cc
This awesome build was named "Grenadier" by my friend "Darner" who first introduced me to a slightly different variation. I kept the name to give him some credit :)
This is a Weapon-Specialist & Support Hy...
I swear these titles and thumbnails are AI generated 
Let me guess, it's being carried by columnus
what in the fresh clickbait hell is this comment?
''grenadier''
sprays shit with ciag
ah yes
sounds about right
Isnt the 40K grenadier just some scion who got the heaviest boom weapons
just paste a jpeg of the kickback on the screen
not really, i tried it with agripina IAG, plasma and revolver
(now you can argue all those are "OP" weapons but if everything is OP then everything is the norm if you know what i mean)
So go Plasma + Power Sword + Grenade feats
Agri isn't, but plasma and revolver most definitely are prime meta weapons currently
Agri is conventionally good though
"THIS UGLY SON OF A KARKER IS KILLING SUPER HOT HERETICS AND BASICALLY, YOU ARE FRAGGING STUPID"
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9aa29726-c30a-4f57-ac9f-c429bc669d34/my-job-is-gun-lasgun-veteran
I'll never cease to be amused by how this doesn't take exe
" Grenadiers carry a high percentage of special arms (such as Flamers and Meltaguns, etc.) and will also employ relatively unorthodox weapons such as Heavy Flamers in two-man teams. A Grenadier squad may also carry an additional Heavy Stubber to increase their firepower."
Vet flamer when
wouldnt call agri op
definitely not weak by any means
tho
its like.. pretty up there
That is why I said it isn't, unless you're just agreeing, in which case 
just agreeing
So that build is just melee vet with voc and takes some grenade talents?
I mean every vet build is a bit of a grenadier in a sense
twinned blast isnt very interesting
and everyone already takes grenade regen
Twinned Blast should be a guaranteed thing
it doesnt really... have an alternative
the grenades are balanced as such that you need grenade regen to make them work
Throw two grenades next after killing an Elite/Special with a grenade 
Fuck smokes
what would be a fun vet revolver/infiltrate build?
i leave games with smoke vets
but for realsies, VoC is too good of a toughness regen, exe stance branch means demo stockpile is out of bounds and now you can't kill carapace, and I don't need to highlight shooters to dome them
not playing aside with that for a whole round
there is a method to my madness
Not committing to Exe Stance in dakka build, pfft fake gun
build uses Frag (bleed) grenades which are currently very underrated judging from the comments here and there
imo in HISTG games they are sick, esp if you can regen them fast so you can throw 2-3 every time you see a huge group of mixed elites
VOC IS A GOOD ABILITY AND BETTER FOR SURVIVABILITY AND CARRIES GAMES AND IS NOT CRINGE STOP BULLYING MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
why would you make a Frag build that doesn't run Shovel for Uncanny
Fake gun enthusiast

Uncanny+Skullcrusher if you're actually all-in on frags
I'M NOT A FAKE FUN ENTHUSIAST YOU'RE JUST JEALOUSSSSSSSSSSSS
LETS GOOOOOOOOO
oh I was talking about twinned blast, not your build specifically
twinned blast + smoke is troll build
I'd change opening salvo with deadly accurate
I imagine opening salvo only gives first bullet and not first whole burst its bonus?
even if it does deadly accurate proc will outperform it by a very large margin
Its double damage on critical weakspot hits
also is it just me or is crucian way worse than it used to be
and then crucian is.... well not my choice of crit blessing for sure
yeah
Honestly the two main crit blessings are
headhunter and surgical
here is the question
I like headhunter for this, surgical for hellbore
do you want to wait and pace your shots or be agressive and chain headshots
both are good blessings, its up to your playstyle choice
the hard decision is if it's worth swapping both blessings for that, and keeping maniac
though maniac isn't terrible
I think that would be fantastic
and if you end up disliking headhunter you can always swap it to surgical
Hadron finally right to trust I am a pleased varlet
this gun will crit the entire burst if you start with a crit btw
enjoy your godroll ^^

I like to run this gun on
sharpshooter vet
but also
shouty vet
with the rending
its great
also here is a little known trick
your special is a basic bash, but if you hold down the button
it will morph into a more powerful bash
It also seems to have a weakspot multiplier lol
bashed a dog to death with it a few times
jesus this thing is a monster
im really happy i bought that targeting helm it goes so well with the new cosmetics
the only character i have played until the recent class overhaul update is my guardsman john since day one
melk just sold me a power cycler 4
eyyyy
cycler 4 is great
this is serving me stupendously well
just consumes hoards
It does
4gryns
why not exe stance?
its similar to what i run already
just VoC instead of exe stance
which power sword goes crazy?
The mk6 is the preferred variant.
what's the dump stat on mk6 power sword?
the cleave stats tbh
Cleave
powered swings and blessings carry cleave
brutal momentum for bodycount racking
also what's the attack pattern for hordes and vs elites
sunder for cleaving mixed elite hordes
lights for basically everything
push attack combo for 1 target
especially crushers
Cleave targets, mostly.
The push attack combo is Block -> energize -> push attack -> chain a light attack (this will be l4 because the mk6 has a unique combo here).
2 hit headshots crushers.
I like rampage on my psword
since I use it for hordes mixed with elites more than anything
also I took this vraks mk3 headhunter for a spin, with these talents
it went very well
Used to be BM>Rampage>Slaughter iirc but a lot of that ranking is down to bugs
normally I don't like the 15 max stacks vs the passive build, but it works well with the triple shot
since that single burst can tap several weak enemies in one go and blam 9 stacks
whats the difference between the two columnus guns?
Different class of weapon. Ones ab Infantry Autogun (IAG) other ones a Braced Autogun (Brauto)
There's a pinned guide on what works best for each
Which of these two guns would you say is better I can add infernus to the one on the right
Sunder and Power Cycler are my favorite for melee builds. Three quick slices on a crusher and then jump back for a couple headshots with the las pistol to take it down.
yeah for crushers rampage is kinda sucky
not nothing but not great
but then I'm also using mk3, so it's even worse for em
The one on the right. 8% damage vs elites is still much much more than 10% weak point damage.
is it just me or do infantry autoguns need better blessings in general
10% weak point only affects the increased value from weakpoint xppp
100 normal 200 weakpoint hit
100 weakpoint damage modifier 10% of that is 10
So effective damage is 210 damage which is 5% boost
IAGs still slap imo
I like them but feels like they should slap harder for their ammo limitations compared to other weapons
Which of the perks would you change?
I mean 2.7x finesse is kinda insane
Ammo imo is very generous if not spraying into ads
Heck with proper crit build you can grind crushers
Iād swap carapace for flak/maniac. +33% damage to maulers, scab ragers, and shotguners is nice.
gotcha thanks!
Lotta high rollers in here tonight congrats gentlemen
should I swap it out on my mk3 to an mk6 with slightly worse stats?
I heard mk6 moveset is better but idk
Define slightly worse.
Generally speaking the mk6 is stronger than the mk3 due to its push attack combo.
hrrrrrm, any IAG experts who can direct me on adjusting this?
367 vs 376 mk3
The base rating only tells so much.
but I'm kinda shitter so I usually just do charge+light attack spam
What matters there is stat distribution.
The mk3's horde clear relies on heavy spam.
I'm surprised you got away with lights.
Functionally speaking those weapons' base ratings are the same.
There's no major differences in performance there.
hmm
so switch?
do you think the mk6 would suit me better?
The mk6's horizontals are l1 and l2.
Since you're used to using light attacks already, the mk6 would probably come more naturally.
Though you really should be horde clearing with the horizontal attacks, not the diagonals.
true
think I'll switch the power cycler to mk6 then, thank you!
this saveable?
Hard to tell yet. You currently need to replace 2/4.
whoops nvm I cant switch it out
guess I'm using the mk3 until I get another power cycler

What do you mean?
not sure if I wanna spend 1k plasteel just for a brick
You already have tier 3 power cycler earned.
Personally, I wouldn't want to either, but because it's braced.
yea
I cant surrender the weapon since I took the power cycler off another power sword and stuck it on my current one
Rather than because it's a brick or not.
did not realize that before
wait
Earned blessings can be reapplied an infinite number of times within the same weapon family.
You already have Power Cycler 3 in your stickerbook for power swords.
oh
I dont really know how crafting works, mb
Last I played a lot was in jan so
That's fine. Now you know.
forgot I had this, still need Headhunter
also hoping for a good blessing in the brunt armory for kantral lasgun so I can replace my supression immunity on my current one
since its useless due to my perk
picked up my lucius 2 again cause i was bored with my inf lasgun
still goes hard as fuck
welcome to darktide crafting
oh
but my plasteel is all gone
joever
i "only" have 300 hours and have never seen PC4
there are people with more hours and still dont have it lol
do all tiers of brutal momentum have the same effect of ignoring enemy mass on weakspot kill?
heard BH was good on mk6 for horde clears
Yes. And yes.
yes
alr, so worth swapping out supercharged for that?
BM provides more mileage in my opinion.
The ability to have 4-5 free bruiser kills that don't eat your cleave in a horde is big.
gotcha
the slaugherer is only T2 anyway
welp, time for plasteel grind to reroll the perks
Tried out an axe without BM. Oh god wtf is that shit
rate my pseudo-mp5 columnus
which powersword is best? 3 or 6?
preference mostly but most ppl use ps6
if you can stand PC3 yeah
Yes
Cleave targets.
And yeah, the blessings are serviceable.
You can use this in the interim.
It's a crying shame about the blessings, perfect but 3s. It's still gonna shred but ngl while PC3 will do you really notice that extra hit from PC4
Perks to flak/maniac/carapce/unyielding.
ty
you can keep damage to elites if you want to save a modification slot
yeah i've stopped using PS
until i get PC4
Oh my lord if they do not add bayonets to the kantrael lasgun in the part 2 update...
The bayonets on the helbore are great
that is a v healthy score across the team
premade?
i haven't seen something like this in awhile š„²
that hellbore melee kills is insane

everytime i play vraks
i want to murder myself
idk why i still try to understand this weapon
Good lord there are some vegetable vet builds out there... smokes.. plasma.. and ping skill... what fuckin delinquent shit is that? 
It's basically a Mk12 with slightly different damage multipliers. A higher weakspot multiplier and no red dot sight.
only sus thing is the smokes
the problem is
Its the combo of the three things thats weird
during hordes, its awfully painfull to pull the weapon
Just like the MG12 lasgun.
plasma and ping skill is the most vanilla combo possible
Use a Power Sword against Hordes.
that i can simply one shot a special behind hordes, while theres a crowd around
i gave up on power swords
Just quickplay. Everyone knew what they were doing and were good at their jobs.
spent more than 20k plasteel already trying to get power cycle
the emperor protects 
I mean, that issue is true for most ranged weapons. Plasma, Revolver, Agripinaa autoguns are the only projectiles that pierce.
idk, they feel so slow to pull and their aim is so whack
anyone got a gunpsyker build I can copy so I can pretend im a vet while I get more currency
really wanted to get into vraks, cause it feels pretty good landing a headshot with that weapon
but god, i cant
It's good, but it requires different playstyles.
ammo economy just makes it a worse mk12
might be skill issue on my part no doubt, but doesnt feel like it suits me at all
Every weapon is viable (almost). But what's most important is that you enjoy playing the game.
If it doesn't work for you, don't use it. Play something you enjoy.
I just started playing AIG recently and fell in love
Was swapping between a bunch of stuff to try to find something that felt good
IAG's are fun. I prefer Agripinaa. Though Columnus is better dps.
Only at close range though.
Yeah I said AIG because it's Agri, couldn't get into the Columnus
oh yeah
It barely tickles enemies beyond 20meters.
Columnus will wreck a beast of nurgle though.
Agri is awesome though. Fairly accurate when burst fired. Decent damage. And it pierces multiple targets.
Probably because it performs best at short range, I like a more versatile gun
maybe i was hitting some box or shit that was in front of him
cant tell
i only see red outlined enemie and shoot
sometimes i fail to realize im shooting a wall 
Damn bro Sire Melk got this rn
Thoughts?
Perks need replaced.. but it has Blaze Away Gets Hot!
80% charge rate is the second best charge rate for pgun also
Buy yes or no?
71% charge rate is optimal for Plasma.
But, it's still decent. As you said, just reroll the perks.
73% is #1 for pguns
BUT
#2 best is a 4 way tie between 80 72 64 and 56
So I'd say if all of those %s give you the same damage, that would mean the one that charges the fastest would be the best out of those 4
So is it worth the purchase peeps?
id pick it up and swap both perks
good luck lol
