hate frames? try this one simple trick

#

As long as someone else realises they should probably kill the stuff you are stunning, not run forward like our happy ogryn yesterday

gusty bison
#

As a note Vraks 7 needs crit headshots

#

It does like nothing on bodyshots

whole moon
#

that explains my lacklustre performace with it recently, thanks Grawr o7

gusty bison
#

That same gun on a rager bodyshot does 290

#

What is best brauto? I wanna like it but nothing seems to compare to columnus iag, ehich i wouldve really liked if it has bash on it rather than flashlight

placid portal
#

Agripina for best dmg and initial accuracy iirc

gleaming turtle
#

Absolutely. Swap the perks for Flak and Maniac, and you're set. Shattering/Blaze is just to taste and Tier 4 Gets Hot is better but not insanely better.

south prairie
placid portal
#

Graia or columnus gains accuracy after firing for a short while

south prairie
#

Still not as good as the iag, or maybe i played it too much

dusky flare
#

only agripina gets cleave

#

Best blessings for the MKII helbore?

sharp ember
#

No Respite being an acceptable 3rd backup option

#

since it works with bayonet

hoary stratus
#

I just wish ragers didn't move their heads so damn much

small echo
#

What perks should I put on a Lucius helbore mk 2?

south prairie
small echo
#

Ok thanks

south prairie
#

Oh fuck perk not blessing

#

Sorry

#

Unyielding and carapace would be my go to for perceived big gun

small echo
#

Ok

bold ibex
#

Which version of devil's claw is actually good?

#

i have that in the daily store whic aint' bad

#

but it doesn't matter if the moveset is trash :<

near sable
#

iv has the overhead heavy from neutral

#

and a light heavy light horizontal

sharp ember
#

not very recommended due to no overhead heavy

#

nice perks but stinky blessings on that one

#

mk4 and mk7 much more preferable for moveset

bold ibex
south prairie
#

Yeah, when i take my mk4 i take it to clear chaff

#

Do people use that for elites?

sharp ember
#

yeah it's for single target when you aren't using it to clear chaff

#

like when a mutie is smashing your pal's head in, you use it to save them faster

#

or killing a flamer in one clean headshot

near sable
#

had my mk4 ohking muties a while back

sharp ember
#

or anything else in one clean headshot

near sable
#

plus shove attack -> heavy

#

two big overheads

sharp ember
#

but by all means take a mk1 if you don't care for a heavy overhead

#

i don't normally hear people praise having 2 horizontal heavies

south prairie
bold ibex
#

Mk1 seems like a bad move, yeah

sharp ember
#

i'm most accurate with the mk7 moveset for some reason

#

the swing angles feel right to me

south prairie
#

Im slowly getting drawn unto using an axe, light spam to clear chaff, heavies to kill elites

bold ibex
#

After playing around more, Mk4 is what I think I'l;l go with. Double strikedown is neat and has a bushido feel to it and the light>strong combo amounts to just doubleclicking

sharp ember
#

yeah the double overhead is pretty cool

#

and the light > heavy is completely flat

south prairie
bold ibex
south prairie
#

I gotta visit the bruntman

bold ibex
#

and ofc, the bonus weakspot crit and weakspot power from finesse really stacks nicely with all the free crit weapon switching tree gets (which sits at... IIRC, like 40%+?)

#

not really sure what to do with that yet... but hit and run might not be bad

#

maybe swap crit chance to +flak?

#

my moos cable crapped out in the middle of a game

#

joys of owning a razer product

shrewd sierra
#

The møøs cable crapping out sounds bad.

frank ether
#

luckily I had foreseen this and had a donor ready

#

while at it I also fixed the scroll wheel

frank ether
#

usually I kill them in half that time

shrewd sierra
#

A donor cable?

#

And wtf

#

I've been using the same mouse for like 5 years

frank ether
#

well I had an older dead moos with a fried main board

deft atlas
#

found this in melk's is he grifting me?

frank ether
#

so I just decided it will be an organ donor

#

I'm actually curious how long optical switches will last

#

but when they go out I'll havve replacements ready for soldering

frank ether
#

that lasted like 6 something years

#

went through 2 cable replacements

#

unfortunately mechanical switches will eventually develop double clicking issue

#

anyways I miss the times when razer used to make products that lasted

#

now they just make cheap garbo and slap a good sensor on it, then call it a moos

midnight mortar
#

Wow.

#

My Logitech mice never gave me anywhere close to that much trouble.

#

Only gone through 2 over 10 years so far. A 500s that lasted me 6 years of daily usage until it started double/triple clicking.

#

And my current 502 on 4 years.

#

Never needed to replace any parts.

#

I had a friend who had one good Razer death adder.

#

And then everything afterwards has barely lasted 2 years before issues crop up.

frank ether
#

I'll buy a different brand next time

#

I developed fkin maintenance skills trying to use razer products

midnight mortar
#

I will say if you're looking for long lasting reliability, Logitech's been consistent on that front for mice as far as I know.

#

I was using those mice hard too, upwards of 60 hours a week of gaming.

frank ether
#

I've been eyeing superlight

#

it seems very popular

#

need something lightweight

midnight mortar
#

Less than 63 grams of lightweight mouse?

#

That's crazy light.

#

Can't say I'm fond of the shape though.

untold flame
#

I remember when we were putting weights in our mice

midnight mortar
#

I still put weights in mine.

#

Not a fan of the lightweight approach.

untold flame
#

I just use a wireless with AA batteries

midnight mortar
#

It's a trap for your muscles.

hollow turtle
#

I've heard of overspamming tag because people binded it to their LMB, but have you ever been in a team that tags nothing?

midnight mortar
#

I wish I knew why.

midnight mortar
#

I've had a few with LMB taggers.

#

Also insufferable.

hollow turtle
#

I think today was just my first time encountering a team where i was the only one tagging. Thanks for fucking letting me know there were ragers mixed in the horde.

untold flame
hollow turtle
#

Or a crusher about to fricking overhead me as soon as I used the medstation

#

Straight 100% health to 0 in a second because they don't tag him running down the stairs and I can't see in front of the dang Ogryn

midnight mortar
#

I like to think it's a combination of egocentrism in visual cognition and a lack of object permanence for those situations.

#

"I see it, therefore everyone else must see it too."

#

"If I don't see it, it doesn't exist."

bleak tangle
#

Finally

umbral scaffold
#

They really need to fix the floating pauldrons, looks so stupid

bleak tangle
#

Haldon made something that isn't a doorstopper

midnight mortar
#

None of the other currently available pauldrons look like that.

umbral scaffold
#

It'd be fine if it was actually attached to something

jade notch
#

Aye, it looks like the pauldrons are floating just a little above the shoulder instead of being properly fitted.

umbral scaffold
#

Like there are other oversized pauldrons that look fine because they aren't floating

midnight mortar
#

All they had to do was attach the pauldrons to the same place they've attached all the other pauldrons for Veteran on every other set of armor that has them.

umbral scaffold
#

Like even this piece of junk is properly fitted

guys. what do you do when your teammmate has l rizz

frank ether
patent valley
#

what's a good shovel build

#

like anyone here care to share their "good" shovels?

mellow adder
#

When you guys try to farm IV Blessings do you craft to blue or orange?

delicate estuary

mellow adder
#

ah kk

frank ether
#

viper is like 70 something grams

frank ether
#

which is a pretty sweet spot

#

they make moos under 50g nowadays

#

I dont really obsess over a few grams but I can tell the difference between 70 and 100

#

too much extra weight adds a bit of inertia to sharp flicks which I'm not a fan of

#

or maybe I'm a weakling that can't handle 30 extra grams KEKW_ogryn

midnight mortar
#

😏 The inertia's only there because your arms aren't used to recruiting more of those muscle fibers to counteract that movement or stop it in fine detail.

#

The shape of mice that follow that of the Viper's always feel wrong under my hands.

#

I prefer mice that don't treat the hand's shape as symmetrical.

frank ether
#

Its all up to how you prefer using it

midnight mortar
#

Yeah I prefer palm grips.

frank ether
#

I dont do very well if I have to hold it like a potater

#

I mean I used to use a deathadderr which is a chunky potato

#

but I wasnt really that good at fps back then anyways

marsh condor
#

This applies to Ranged hits, right?

midnight mortar
#

Yes.

jade notch
#

Yes

midnight mortar
#

And bleed ticks contribute to it.

frank ether
marsh condor
#

So it work best with weapons like Braced Autoguns and Autopistols.

midnight mortar
#

Doesn't have to be braced.

#

Just needs to be a weapon with a rapid fire rate.

marsh condor
#

I know

frank ether
#

graia brauto sucks even with this lol

marsh condor
#

Just referring to certain examples

marsh condor
#

...yeah, that's the only joke that came in my mind about that autogun.

frank ether
#

I mean

wet anvil
#

I played my veteran again the cadian wields the emperor’s strength in his lungs

frank ether
#

brautos are kinda lame for vet anyways

#

your only way of reducing spread is volley fire

#

and why would you play volley fire brauto tbh

marsh condor
#

Ranged tasks

frank ether
#

iag just straight up better if you can aim

marsh condor
#

I am using Columnus Infantry Autogun

frank ether
#

braced auto more of a zealot thing

marsh condor
#

I have the bigger variant of the Braced Autogun

frank ether
#

agri?

#

thats the best one

marsh condor
#

Yeah, I have that

#

Honestly, I wonder why we can't have that as our "LMG".

sharp ember
#

i will never give up on the graia brauto, best dakka

frank ether
#

I like the space AKs

#

but they're rather meh

#

one build I like to do is

#

duck n dive with stripped down

marsh condor
#

I'd like it if the Agripinaa Braced Autogun's like this.

frank ether
#

its effectively this anyways

marsh condor
#

Ammo

frank ether
#

you get like 40 something rounds

untold mulch
frank ether
#

that would be a drum worth of ammo for how big an AK bullet is

marsh condor
#

75 rounds in that drum

untold mulch
#

honestly I use Weapon Modification mod to add all brautos a drum mag KEKW_ogryn

marsh condor
#

In fact, call me a heretic/horrible bastard, but I'd rather have more ammo at the cost of recoil on the ABA.

frank ether
#

braced autos dont really have recoil

#

they just spread

#

a lot

marsh condor
#

That's why I added recoil.

#

Imagine that - spread and recoil together in this mess.

frank ether
#

sounds hella useless

#

already pretty inaccurate gun

#

they can just do a proper lmg

marsh condor
#

Yeah...

#

Still waiting for our Heavy Stubber.

frank ether
#

nothing stops them from

#

adding a mark of brrauto

#

with a drum mag btw

#

they have the models

marsh condor
#

Wait really? Show me

frank ether
#

its just down to how fatshark feels about it

frank ether
#

fatshark already has those assets so if they wanted to, they'd do a drum mag brrauto

#

I just dont see it being very popular

#

they kinda effectively did that for the other two having really large mags

sharp ember
#

you can see the exposed cartidges and they are SQUONSHED

#

i mean still really impressive the mod is capable of changing and resizing asset parts

#

but not truly a drum mag asset created for brautos

frank ether
plucky cosmos
#

guys

#

i'm having an argument with a friend about shovel vs chainsword

#

he won't stop xD

sharp ember
#

weird matchup

plucky cosmos
#

ye

#

thats what i told him

#

i like both but prefer the chainsword

sharp ember
#

one is defensive and one is offensive

#

but hey new shovel variant coming

plucky cosmos
#

oh yeah?

#

whats that what i heard about a new revolver?

sharp ember
#

that too

#

and it can fan the hammer for fast shooting

plucky cosmos
#

we still need a revolver skin tho

sharp ember
#

don't know what role the folding shovel will occupy

plucky cosmos
#

instead of 6 dodges you get 9

sharp ember
#

personally hoping the folding is functional and you can fold it to expose an anti-armor spike

plucky cosmos
#

that would be nice bcs i feel kinda useless against crushers

#

with shovel

#

or maybe its just me

sharp ember
#

shovel's okay versus crushers

#

better than a claw if there's multiple

#

doesn't really kill them in a timely manner

nimble sentinel
#

it will kill em and keeps all the other little buggers off your back

#

love me shovel

plucky cosmos
#

the poke from the shovel does not stun ragers right?

nimble sentinel
#

it does!

plucky cosmos
#

oh nice i thought its only good for gunners, burster and maulers

amber cliff
#

when i read folding i honestly thought of the market gardner from tf2

nimble sentinel
#

same

#

imagine if the new shovel did instakill while midair

marsh condor
#

Which Blessings to replace Gloryhunter with?

jade notch
#

I run Gets Hot (+Crit Chance based on Heat level)

marsh condor
#

With Shattering Impact...

dusk idol
#

you should

#

replace shitty impact

#

unless you're really focused on that brittleness buff for your team

sharp ember
#

mid impact isn't that bad to ignore

dusk idol
#

unarmoured and carapace aren't bad either though

sharp ember
#

but yeah slap on Gets Hot

dusk idol
#

dreg gunner and crush boys

sharp ember
#

true

#

ensuring 1 shot dreg gunner is nice

dusk idol
#

i just inted a heresy game because i;m wasted

#

sorry gamers, i apologise to u

marsh condor
dusk idol
marsh condor
#

I think I have Blaze Away

dusk idol
#

otherwise just do what you feel is good, but your perks are good and your blessings are in the eh tier

marsh condor
#

While waiting, I'm gonna try if the Recon Lasgun's crits are still shite.

dusk idol
#

sadly

#

they still are

nimble sentinel
#

where would you put my last 2 points? I'm caving to the bullying and making a lasgun build that actually takes exe

#

gonna be running a hellbore btw if it matters

dusk idol
#

whjats the rest of your build?

sharp ember
nimble sentinel
#

actually scratch that, gotta cook some more

dusk idol
#

or is it just for the extra keystone nodes

nimble sentinel
#

forgot tactical awareness isnt really needed on exe

sharp ember
#

if you must use the keystone, anyway

nimble sentinel
#

lemme throw what I got so far in the editor

dusk idol
#

okk\

sharp ember
#

personally i think it's better suited to infantry lasguns and autoguns than helbore

marsh condor
#

Just need some reviewing

nimble sentinel
dusk idol
nimble sentinel
nimble sentinel
rugged goblet
#

It's fine once you get used to it

dusk idol
#

no like whats your melee

nimble sentinel
#

ah, probably gonna run shovel or csword

dusk idol
#

okk

#

swap to kraks so you have an answer to mauler/crusher packs

nimble sentinel
#

that's why I'm going hellbore

dusk idol
#

remove focus and ability modifier

#

go iron will for exec stance shooter tanking

#

oh hellbore mk3?

nimble sentinel
#

nah I'll need a good bayonnet, 1 or maybe 2

dusk idol
#

2 is kinda bad into crushers from my experience but i don't have + carapace on mine

#

only onslaught surg

nimble sentinel
#

it's not perfect but definitely serviceable

dusk idol
#

if you want the keystone grab camo and tunnel, if you're willing to lose it then diverge as you see fit into more toughness dr or extra nades

#

and CK too is nice

nimble sentinel
#

why camo over long range assassin?

#

and which one is CK again?

dusk idol
#

you can keep stacks up more reliably with camo as opposed to long range

#

it's the middle first two

#

confirmed kill

nimble sentinel
#

ah right

dusk idol
#

camo synergises well with your stand-still moments and if you really wanna squeeze its worth out you can gimmick the crouch dodging to maintain stacks

marsh condor
#

Just a random question

#

How much ammo does the VIIa Recon Lasgun consume per clip?

dusk idol
#

however much is in the magazine

#

or do you mean like uh

#

per shot

#

\

nimble sentinel
#

a thought, sadly IW would have cost me all my points

#

actually quick question, does exe stance still make me immune to suppression by default?

dusk idol
#

apparently i got moderated for saying a talent

#

but

marsh condor
dusk idol
#

that one which provides rending is bugged

#

last i knew of

#

thats why i didn't recommend it

#

it doesn't work

nimble sentinel
#

we did more science on that, just bugged in the psykhanium

dusk idol
#

ahhh okay

nimble sentinel
#

if you swap it while inside it stops working

dusk idol
nimble sentinel
#

anywho time to test this build out

#

lol I thought this was a vet for a hot minute

marsh condor
#

Lol

nimble sentinel
#

yeh I don't like that keystone

#

too static

sharp ember
#

looking forward to how much that vet talent tree compression will do

nimble sentinel
#

same

topaz pebble
#

Counterfire and bigger they are should be an easy one

#

I honestly think grenade tinkerer should just be base nade

untold mulch
#

I am keeping my hopes of the compression as "all good talents will be killed" KEKW_ogryn

cinder oar
#

what blessing makes the krak grenades stick?

#

its on the autogun right?

untold mulch
#

they can still to unyielding but no magnet

#

idk if they stick to anything else

cinder oar
#

okay sweet

untold mulch
#

throw nades at enemies and check interactions

gaunt hinge
pastel geode
#

And carapace

#

Also bosses

gaunt hinge
#

you can stick it on a dreg bruiser's helmet

#

which is an incredible waste but its funny

untold mulch
#

Magnet and stick to Carapace

Stick only to Unyielding and Flak

gaunt hinge
#

but like i mean they couldve just spent the 3 seconds to read the grenade

untold mulch
#

I didn't even remember it said so in the tooltip KEKW_ogryn

#

I use shredder

naive hatch
#

I use Krak grenades, I call em my lil problem solvers.

gaunt hinge
#

i found 1 use for the graia brauto and its absolutely dreadful

naive hatch
#

The grenade regen is no joke.

gaunt hinge
#

you can spend 50 bullets braced to open up a bulwark shield

untold mulch
#

is a keystone

#

grenade regen is keystone talent

#

I can go all match spamming frags everytime I need them

#

and very rarely I click G and nothing happens

placid portal
#

krak do be funny when it homes into carapace only

#

i.e: you throw grenade to a crusher but it homes onto a bulwark

untold mulch
#

the magnetism is a bit much

placid portal
#

Really beeg

naive hatch
#

Sometimes I like to play on my Ogryn so I can throw a nuke into a room and watch the killfeed fill up.

placid portal
#

iirc it was so big sometimes break the tally

#

it doesn't even pop up

wet moon
#

okay - do i keep the unforunate crit dmg and go headhunter/deadly acc or fix the perk and keep ghost?

#

for reference this is what i already have

placid portal
quiet wadi
#

can anyone tell me if deathspitter stacks? im sure i tested this before but i'd rather have someone else correlate on what i think before i bother rolling for a t4 blessing version of it

I think what you already have is tad better

# marsh condor

Looks solid, so long as you don’t get fucked over by the blessings

charred iris
#

also they made a point of saying the new shovels foldable? most skins make it look like a foldable shovel anyway? so what does that mean

umbral scaffold
#

So probably just new variants of existing weapons

fresh mango
#

Maybe it can both cleave and then you fold it and it does good single target?

versed merlin
charred iris
versed merlin
#

i cant understand how tf you fold a shovel

#

and why would it be in the game

charred iris
versed merlin
#

no

thick kestrel
umbral scaffold
versed merlin
#

wait what

thick kestrel
#

actually, a better example:

versed merlin
#

how come that is called folding shovel

rugged goblet
#

We had the latter in army

marsh condor
#

It's also called the E-Tool

charred iris
umbral scaffold
versed merlin
#

ahhhh

marsh condor
#

Well, it's mainly called the E-tool.

versed merlin
#

i thought it was something like idk pocket shovel

marsh condor
#

It is.

versed merlin
#

where you fold it many times until it gets tiny

marsh condor
#

Wait, no.

charred iris
# thick kestrel actually, a better example:

if i had to imagine, it would operate like this picture where it has the normal mode but then it folds into that pickaxe style where maybe it does more single target like that one guy said

umbral scaffold
#

I have seen a shovel that was kind of built like a collapsible baton where you could adjust the length

thick kestrel
#

honestly if it is a proper entrenching tool with the reverse side pick it could easily be a single target focused shovel as opposed to our wide sweeping model atm.

#

strike down heavy attacks as it were

versed merlin
#

ohh interesting

#

maybe special atk unfolds the shovel

charred iris
#

although

thick kestrel
#

so I'd presume it'd play more like a defensive combat axe?

charred iris
#

cooler than folding shovel

#

a revolver that can fan the hammer im so excited

#

wonder if itll operate like mcrees gun in overwatch where right click is the fan so you cant aim with it

untold mulch
#

braced revolver KEKW_ogryn

charred iris
#

which is likely the option theyll pick

thick kestrel
#

it'll definitely make for a very powerful panic button tool

#

you "might" end up spending all your time reloading as well ^^

untold mulch
#

a fanfire revolver

#

needs a speedloader

sharp ember
#

surgical + handcannon when fanning the hammer

#

no surgical stacks when fan firing KEKW_ogryn

placid portal
#

Crucian Roulette gamers

junior grail
#

Crucian Roulette time

thick kestrel
#

aye that's a fair point... sustained fire might be a good call on it presuming it'd still be a 5 shot cylinder... point blank for a quick hybrid loadout. trick shooter and crucian roulette would also be pretty solid picks.

placid portal
#

could be a 9 cylinder revolveer

junior grail
#

I hope by rule of 3 we get a 3rd revolver that is the heaviest big iron on our hips

placid portal
#

or the classic 9mil

junior grail
#

Balanced by needing to pull back the hammer with each shot

junior grail
thick kestrel
#

don't you need a single action revolver for fanning the hammer anyways?

#

Helbore axe build niche is neat and not the most broken shit ever but whenever FS gets around to fixing that little exploit I cant see myself going back to ever using the bayonet

sharp ember
#

the axe bayonet really needs its action smoothed out

eternal sable
#

uwu ?

sharp ember
#

stab bayonets can be spammed fine, but for some reason you have to hold and release the axe bayonet for smoothest performance

#

if you tap it becomes so clunky for some reason

junior needle
# marsh condor

Elites>flak at the very least, max damage would probably be fire frenzy or deathspitter

marsh condor
#

Flak or FF/Dspit...

#

Shucks

gleaming adder
#

Anyone here got an accatran (any mark) build that's viable in damnation or obese fish nerfed them already

marsh condor
#

I still wish the "axe" bayonet animation gets swapped out for an alternate stabbing one

#

Like, raise the gun over.

tall torrent
marsh condor
#

Flak, ig

tall torrent
#

Swap elite to 25% flak

#

Good enough

marsh condor
#

Still, I wanted to maximize damage. Oh well.

tall torrent
#

Deathspitter and fire frenzy are hard to maintain above 3 stacks without shooting into horde

marsh condor
#

Speaking of, what's the difference? By all accounts, they're just too similar

finite imp
#

These new revolvers better spank my nuts

marsh condor
#

Unrelated, I also thought of using Raking Fire, for the occasional monsters

untold mulch
#

is not like every pug these days is 50% revolvers

#

quite literally

finite imp
#

Why does that bother you

untold mulch
#

Because it speaks of overtuned weapon (and I've seen quite a few acting like it isn't) + there is no real variety in matches

from my ally side I only hear revolver shots

finite imp
#

Or maybe all of the other weapons are undertuned

untold mulch
#

I dont go midmatch telling them that bruh why you using it

Main Bolter problem is ammo and shitty draw time

Reduce revolver damage and add a 6th shot, buff bolter and add 5 shots

Why don't we just nerf the vet again while we're at it.

Tell that to the 10 crushers I killed with a single krak

ive saved more teammates w/ bad shredder throws than i have my best krak throws so

that & the shredders still yeet big boys so who gives a fuck

i just find that shredders have infinitely more usefulness than kraks & wish they were the middle tree instead

finite imp

Just shout my brother

It's the perfect panic switch

i find the choice between krak and shredder to be very difficult. i started out using krak but shredders guarantee mission completion if that makes sense

Having the ability to stagger every enemy around you 3 times in a horde is pretty good tho

ive had great krak throws but can’t really get in2 the groove of using them 24/7 since my expectations 4 an explosion is that it’ll maim a crowd of people

#

maybe im mid

tall torrent
#

I found kraks a lot more limiting because I basically only ever get to use them with crushers, maulers, bulwarks and bosses
And any other time if I use it it’s kind of like a waste

empty creek
#

having less options isn’t fun

bright coyote
thick kestrel
#

yeah, it tends to be best to think about what fills in the gaps in your kit. shredders and kraks have crossover, but do specialise. Frags a bit more control, Kraks a bit more priority removal.

if you have other tools to wreck/disrupt hordes then kraks work well. if you've got more specialised weapons for elites/single targets then Frags rock

crude wind
#

I go back and forth on Krak and Frag, imo they are both really good

#

But smokes

#

Don't talk about those

thick kestrel
#

ideally we'll see another tune up to the smokes at some point to niche them better as a defensive option

empty creek
#

i take onslaught & use good guns so i can still buttfuck crushers & maulers when they show w/o being insanely disruptive 2 how i play

pastel geode
#

For me it’s a pocket bomb to deal with trouble enemies then I go back to mag dumping everything else while screaming about Cadia

empty creek
#

(white phos)

bright coyote
#

why not give smokes a Bardin stealth when standing in it for everyone? or too good (or lame)

thick kestrel
#

eh, I think that'd have too much functional crossover with the frags and their bleed effect as a DoT grenade

untold mulch
#

the CC alone

thick kestrel
#

ideally smoke grenades should be about protecting the team, which they are... but the effect feels... fluffy? transitional? it's hard to exploit outside of specific situations

crude wind
#

Frags are amazing for space which is what Vets often want and need

#

Krak is a gap filler in the arsenal that's very handy if you want to run something that can't kill carapace

empty creek
#

i refuse 2 fall in2 the nasty meta of being a plasmagun krak powersword shout veteran so i avoid 3 of those things like the plague since apparently everybody else hates them

thick kestrel
#

the new mission actually has some excellent situations for their use oddly enough

untold mulch
#

I would be willing to exchange the frag for a concussion nade to double down on CC KEKW_ogryn

thick kestrel
#

but... Frags do that job as well, they're awesome control tools

tall torrent
# crude wind But smokes

They should have more support utility besides drawing shooters into melee and downgrading gunners’ IQ

thick kestrel
#

so figuring out how to "fix" smokes becomes a bit tricksy

untold mulch
#

Smoke needs to be rethought from the ground up

thick kestrel
#

because they have the potential to trivialise certain things if you go too far... they quite probably need a more fundemental re-work

tall torrent
#

Just give us a toughness/stamina regen per second buff when in smoke
So you not only get to downgrade shooter IQ, your melee survivability is also higher

fossil basalt
#

I think smokes work fine, it's generic teams that don't know how to use them because they don't know how they work

thick kestrel
#

switching them over to something like haywire grenades might work more thematically? have them disable weapons/debuff enemies for a period of time.

Which gun should I go for if I'm taking executioner's stance?

Are you running any keystones?

Probably not

Then really any gun

#

I mean do you have a preferred range to engage in?

jaunty lantern
#

Medium. I don't like being too far in the back but I also don't really like being the focus for the horde

topaz pebble
#

Infantry lasguns and autoguns

#

Hellbores mk1 also works

#

Personal favorite are the MG12 and la for lasguns

#

Columbus and agripina

I'll keep the Agri Inf as a secondary option

Bayonets are stupidly broken

There is also this little thing I got... Whatchu think?

marsh condor

Stopping Power is shite...

topaz pebble
#

Yea

#

That's unfortunate

versed merlin
#

stopping power is the second most important stat for that weapon

marsh condor
#

...so you're better off killing Dregs or Hordes with it.

jaunty lantern
#

Gotcha...

#

Finally, I wanna ask about this

topaz pebble
#

That's good

#

VERY good

marsh condor
#

jaunty lantern
#

I assuem going for an Exec Stance with it is not the best option?

topaz pebble
#

Not really imo

#

That's overkill

#

In terms of damage

versed merlin
#

only if you want to one tap crushers

topaz pebble
#

Yeah, outside of that just run voice

versed merlin
#

i like revolver with stealth weapon specialist

jaunty lantern
#

I mean, the way I play Vet I usually two-tap crushers from medium range with a charged plasma

topaz pebble
#

I also really love weapon specialist with the revolver

jaunty lantern
#

Running voice and 'nades

topaz pebble
#

Yeah, revolver can also do that

#

Except the ammo economy is 10x better

jaunty lantern
#

Huh. Lemme show you my talents atm

can someone throw a build my way for general usage, dont play veteran too much and havent looked into new builds after keystone update

This is my talent build atm

topaz pebble

My personal favorite

thick kestrel
#

in fairness the static nature of marksman's focus is REALLY overstated ^^

#

it's better to think of it as being heavily crit weapon focused rather than "stand still and shoot" focused

thick hare
#

i guess its a matter of more dmg vs cleave

versed merlin
#

psword has both cleave and damage, assuming you're willing to burn tons of plasteel to grind power cycle blessing

Catachans are amazing

#

No issues with ragers

#

Revolver literally anything slightly dangerous

#

i like devil claws on vet too

#

i prefer combat axe, but i refuse to play combat axe without the 10% melee attack speed node

you won the lottery

thick hare

saw someone in zealot channel sending a video

topaz pebble
#

Don't need carapace

thick hare

of oneshotting maulers

#

which is a nice addition as evis is bad against cara

topaz pebble
#

You just chastise while sawing

versed merlin
#

mauler body is flak

topaz pebble
#

Goodbye crusher

thick hare
#

oh its flak?

topaz pebble
#

And the next poor bastard that you hit

versed merlin
#

so long you hit the body, i think you should still one shot it

foggy musk
#

Flak to unyielding?

#

Which perk should i change here?

versed merlin
#

only its head that is carapace

tardy plaza
#

I've got a TH like that burning haven't been able to get a wep like that on my vet

topaz pebble
#

Flak to maniac imo

eternal sable
#

change carapace to maniac

topaz pebble
#

And ofc crucian to hand cannon

tardy plaza
eternal sable
#

you get little value with carapace on a revolver

tardy plaza
#

I wish I had this on my veteran 😔

eternal sable
#

flak + maniacs hand cannon + surgical

versed merlin
topaz pebble
#

Revolver one shots like all flak enemies

eternal sable
#

you 2 shot without carapace on your recolver

foggy musk
#

there are so many crushers in high tier games

eternal sable
#

dont swap out your flak thats a big noob trap

topaz pebble
#

What do you possibly need flak for

foggy musk
#

so cara + flak?

eternal sable
#

maiacs + flak

#

dont do carapace

foggy musk
#

why is maniac important here?

#

its only ragers and Mutants right

#

that are maniacs

eternal sable
#

1 shotting ragers

versed merlin
#

so you can actively one shot specials

topaz pebble
#

Ragers mutants flamers and trappers

eternal sable
#

^

foggy musk
#

oh shit

#

true

#

facts

eternal sable
#

maniacs is very good on revolver

sharp ember
#

i mean check your build in the shooting range if you can afford to test both and draw your own conclusion

topaz pebble
#

But I'd take carapace over flak

tardy plaza
#

Ragers are more dangerous than crushers/maulers

eternal sable
#

big noob trap doing that cement

topaz pebble
#

Cause I have yet to see any flak survive a revolver headshot

tardy plaza
#

Crushers and maulers are easy to kite and dodge, a big group of ragers will fuck you up very fast if you don't deal with them immediately

eternal sable
#

thats a perfect recolver, dont grief him

versed merlin
#

i think that maulers and crushers are pretty easy to bait, even in dense hordes

eternal sable
#

revolver*

versed merlin
#

but ragers are rough

topaz pebble
#

But what are you taking flak for

thick hare
#

between focus target and weapon specialist which is more preferable for melee heavier? weapon specialist? as i mentioned above i rather like engaging into melee

versed merlin
eternal sable
#

you will get the most value out of flak and maniacs

eternal sable
#

also there are different armor types on enemies

topaz pebble
#

Yes but what is flak for

eternal sable
#

if you look at a mauler for example, head is carapace and body is flak

#

its like that with a lot of other mobs

topaz pebble
#

But why are you body shotting a mauler

eternal sable
#

flak + maniacs is best value

sharp ember
topaz pebble
#

You have handcannon

thick hare
eternal sable
#

stop trying to cope cement

#

yeah that builds terrible

topaz pebble
#

I'm being gaslit right now aren't I

eternal sable
#

you dont have longshot or volley adept in a reolver build

#

actually bricked

versed merlin
#

id take stealth over voc and take out that last perk in weapon specialist, not needed

eternal sable
#

no deadeye either

#

deadshot

topaz pebble
#

I like the last perk cause you never have to reload

thick hare
eternal sable
#

you are losing so much potential power with thatr build cement

#

you can take 30% weak spot damage and 25% crit in your left tree.

#
  • lots more
versed merlin
#

im not the most reliable source of information, i mostly just play auric with stuff that i ask from other people

eternal sable
#

thats how you 2 shot without carapace

topaz pebble
#

Why do I need that much crit

#

I have 33% crit with just one melee kill

#

Surgical for half a second fills in the rest

thick hare
eternal sable
#

you are using ultimate noob revolver build

thick hare
eternal sable
#

if you want to play melee play zealot ?

#

that class is made for melee

topaz pebble
#

Yeah noob revolver that somehow works in auric and maelstrom

thick hare
#

i am fairly new to the game

#

just wanted a relaible build for doing weeklies etc

eternal sable
#

i might have one

thick hare
#

as i like doing those on higher difficulties as well mainly damnation ofc

versed merlin
#

i mean, people play gun psyker, so why not play melee vet

topaz pebble
#

Yeah, the build I use clears auric easily

eternal sable
#

i would never use a build from here or from gamelantern

versed merlin
#

not the most optimal, but it works

eternal sable
#

they are all ultimate noob traps

topaz pebble
#

Gun psykers do obscene damage

thick hare
sharp ember
#

wouldn't his build be "from here" too loregryn

eternal sable
#

yeah ikr

versed merlin
#

i wouldnt trust a gun psyker, same way i wouldnt trust a melee vet in auric, but so long as they know what they're doing i dont mind

thick hare
#

also not a veteran talk but i mainly used revolver on zealot and recently i have seen couple people in pubs with autopistol doing extremely high dmg

topaz pebble
#

I have to be getting gaslit

thick hare
sharp ember

not really

topaz pebble

It's alright

Pinning fire nerf hit it hard
