It like leveling 8th character

#

Cuz I deleted some

merry oak
#

i got zelot but shes just sitting there

mystic belfry
#

Gimme

merry oak
mystic belfry
#

No

pulsar drift
#

Gave up after a second thought

mystic belfry
#

Gimme spear

merry oak
#

closes we got so far

pulsar drift
#

Thinking about the pain I have to go through

mystic belfry
#

No helbore, only spear

pulsar drift
#

Nvm

merry oak
#

a halbread would be cool too

wanton dawn
merry oak
#

lol

mystic belfry
#

Tuskgore spear, my beloved

merry oak
#

muchbad

#

mk3

wanton dawn
#

Who use a bayo like an axe

#

Smh

merry oak
#

thats it

mystic belfry
merry oak
#

cursed

mystic belfry
#

Boarding axe

#

But with gun

pulsar drift
#

Quick question

mystic belfry
#

We only allow slow questions here

wanton dawn
pulsar drift
#

Does charismatic increases coherency radius?

#

Sry I m slow typer sah

wanton dawn
#

I am pretty sure that it does

merry oak
#

from what ive seen

#

i used to run it

pulsar drift
#

Okay!

wanton dawn
#

I use it on my main build. Makes a lot of stuff seems smoother

merry oak
#

but its kinda usless to me since i always bayonet charge

pulsar drift
#

Cuz I am running grenadier build

wanton dawn
#

Vet loves coherency after all

mystic belfry
#

It's a decent talent

pulsar drift
#

So I am thinking larger radius will keep ppl in coherency more often

mystic belfry
#

Good with Target Down!

pulsar drift
#

Yea

#

I put target down on too

merry oak
#

i am partial with out for blood, shooting for 3 percent toughness on kill is funny

pulsar drift
#

The question is between one extra grenade, redirect fire, and coherency radius

#

On frag btw

#

Its been running great

#

But I am just thinking

wanton dawn
#

Coherency if you use frag

pulsar drift
#

Is 1 more nade rly that necessary?

merry oak
#

i only use 2 krak grenades, helbore is more than enough anti carapace

mystic belfry
#

1 extra nade isn't that big of a deal

wanton dawn
#

Unless you play smoke

mystic belfry
#

It's okay with krak, super meh with the other two

wanton dawn
#

Cuz you need to troll all the way

gritty dock
# mystic belfry

I wonder if this weapon was actually practical? Is this rather a fanciful product?

pulsar drift
#

I see

mystic belfry
#

It's a boarding axe with a pistol in it, it's fine

merry oak
#

tbh extra grenades depends if your other weapons cannot reliable kill

mystic belfry
#

You shoot someone and then use the axe

pulsar drift
#

Maybe I should just try it out

mystic belfry
#

That said, it's kind of silly over just taking a pistol and an axe generally

wanton dawn
pulsar drift
#

Cuz one extra nade had been comfortable

#

sometime I’ll get four nades from four kills

mystic belfry
#

You should avoid having max shredder nades anyways

pulsar drift
#

Idk is a gambling thing

mystic belfry
#

If you hit your full capacity on shredders, throw one

#

You're wasting nade regen otherwise, and shredders are always at least mildly useful

pulsar drift
#

Of course not, I am a grenedier build which throw as much as possible

merry oak
pulsar drift
#

I should just try it out

merry oak
#

Yea it's your build build it towards you

mystic belfry
pulsar drift
#

Oh yea

#

It’s a god damn mistake that I deleted my old vet

mystic belfry
#

Ngl, I'll use an eviscerator

pulsar drift
#

Cuz I have to reroll power swords all over again

mystic belfry
#

But I fucking hate chain weapon thematiclaly

pulsar drift
#

Damn

merry oak
pulsar drift
#

XD

mystic belfry
#

They're stupid, and also ugly, and don't even look functional

gray stone
#

can can i make this BiS?

zealous wyvern
#

no

mystic belfry
#

Nope

zealous wyvern
#

3 meh things

pulsar drift
#

No

mystic belfry
#

Grab surgical off of it

pulsar drift
#

Rip infested

gray stone
#

aight, ill get a god one eventually

#

cheers fellas

merry oak
#

It could work

#

But not BIS

#

Perks are gummed up

#

Personally I wouldint care much about perks

gray stone
#

surgical is BiS right? dunno any other good ones apart from onslaught

zealous wyvern
#

replace infested and sustained

#

yes

#

onslaught and surgical

#

maniac on the perk replacing infested

merry oak
zealous wyvern
#

use it until you have a better one, then grab surgical from this

merry oak
#

Ye

#

It would work

gray stone
#

yeah, so close yet so far

zealous wyvern
#

just not best in slot

merry oak
#

But it could be better of hadron would let us blessings the damn thing 4 times

gray stone
#

fr, even 3 makes huge difference

#

2 we must make do

south garnet
#

man pubs are really getting to me today

#

was about to complain it's like taking care of children except I think I am actually taking care of children

merry oak
#

75% for a black libary book is a steal

gray stone
#

also is stability fine as a dumpstat for helbore or does it hurt?

merry oak
#

Meh

#

Yea

terse idol
#

for an mk1 yeah

#

I'd dump it

#

dump it for most if not all weapons

merry oak
#

I like the stability personally

jade notch
#

Hellbores are pretty stable in general, even if you're getting facepunched/shot

mystic belfry
#

I bought a self from a closing book store once

#

They were selling litterally everything

merry oak
#

Lol

weary acorn
#

if i'm using a hellbore las gun, do I need suppression immunity talent?

merry oak
crisp bronze
#

I like stability on the Braced Autos a fair bit. It affects hip fire spread so it's pretty helpful there.

wanton dawn
#

Hb is stupid stable

mystic belfry
# merry oak

Shoulda hired some random reject from a prison cell

weary acorn
placid portal
#

Helbore so stable you dont realise you've shot 50 shots

#

No

placid portal
#

Just rocksteady grip

wanton dawn
weary acorn
#

gotcha

placid portal
#

Lucius has no sway

#

A kriger do not falter under fire

merry oak
weary acorn
#

oh thats nice

merry oak
#

At all

mystic belfry
#

macro

#

smh

weary acorn
#

maybe i can take the point and put it into deadshot...

wanton dawn
#

I need a macro for hb special. It can be painful

#

Might have to write it myself

merry oak
#

I can deal with hb special

#

But not with sustained automatic fire

crisp bronze
#

I have found the one melee that can get me off of my Power Sword. The almighty shovel. The new Mk7 to be exact.

merry oak
#

Lore wise helbores don't have an automatic function

mystic belfry
#

I've said it before and I'll probably say it again

mystic belfry
#

I've never seen so many players have issues with spam clicking than in this game

jade notch
wanton dawn
mystic belfry
#

Also, clicking has nothing to do with carpal tunnel. That's bad wrist posture putting weight on the wrong spot

wanton dawn
#

So yes, it is putting strain

mystic belfry
#

Until you get used to it

wanton dawn
#

On my case it is the reversz

#

I need to be more careful

crisp bronze
mystic belfry
#

Eh

wanton dawn
#

Am not killing my hand for a game thats for sure. I dont give a damn about lore accuracy vs accessibility

merry oak
mystic belfry
#

Isn't their already a full auto mod anyways

wanton dawn
mystic belfry
#

I know people have talked about it

merry oak
#

Not getting that mod

#

Mods break

#

My mouse doesn't

#

Relatively

mystic belfry
#

Well that's bullshit

wanton dawn
#

From what i could see, those mod are linked to action rather than butto press so no work with special

merry oak
#

Game updates too often for me to use mods

wanton dawn
#

Me and my 50+ mods whatthefuck_heresy

mystic belfry
#

I've never had downtime on my mods lol

#

You just run the patch again

crisp bronze
merry oak
#

I'm not a masochist like some yall

mystic belfry
#

Click fast

wanton dawn
mystic belfry
#

It takes like 15 minutes from start to finish

#

hen you run a single file when the game updates

#

That's it

merry oak
#

Nope not breaking this game don't love it that much

mystic belfry
#

... breaking?

south garnet
#

I don't have any mods due to 1. laziness and 2. fear of the game becoming even more unstable than it already is

idle carbon
merry oak
#

Yea see

mystic belfry
#

You can just

#

Disable them if so

merry oak
#

Mhm not using mods

idle carbon
#

what's better is people check for you, the darktide modder discord lists broken mods in announcements
so no need to suffer yourself to find out

mystic belfry
#

My man out here thinking his mouse doesn't break and that installing mods is maso

idle carbon
#

numericUI and custom HUD are worth the hassle alone lol

mystic belfry
#

Now if we were talking Skyrim I would agree

#

The shit people do modding that game is insane

#

I know from experience

crisp bronze
#

Regardless of modding. Having a full auto option in the settings harms no one and only makes the game more accessable and gives some guns some quality of life. It should be a thing.

idle carbon
#

it saves me from getting carpal tunnel when I use a laspistol

mystic belfry
#

Doesn't really bother me if i exists, I wouldn't use it honestly

#

It's not carpel tunnel

#

Carpel tunny is bad arm/wrist posture

idle carbon
#

that's basically the only weapon I use it for

mystic belfry
#

Clicking fast is at worst muscle strain

idle carbon
#

in any case, I would like to not have finger/hand strain

mystic belfry
#

Completely different in cause and severity. Carpel tunnel is crushing a nerve in your wrist

#

You should never get that because it's when people are putting the wieght of their entire arm on their bent wrist all day and is completely prevetnable

idle carbon
#

alright doctor, anything else to add

mystic belfry
#

Finger strain from clicking fast is solved by just doing it, you build up the muscle and it's stops being a problem :v

#

if you do find your wrist being sore after playing. Try putting more weight on your forearm, and keep your wrist off the desk. It's a decently big deal tbh

pearl granite
#

what's max toughness possible on curio?

pulsar drift
#

17?

jade notch
#

17% Toughness is the best I got

pulsar drift
#

question

#

keep shred or not

#

Thinking change to blood letter

devout atlas
#

a lot of ppl recommend savage

versed merlin
#

id swap unyielding perks if i were to use this mainly as horde clear

dusty ferry
#

Shred is eh
Personally check it out, you already got rampage which is good, others are up to hownthey go for you

pulsar drift
#

I see

dusty ferry
#

Personally I would take a Cleave increase blessing over Shred

devout atlas
#

unyielding with bloodletter is good

pulsar drift
#

I kinda wanna keep the unyielding

versed merlin
#

yeah it all depends on how you want to use it

pulsar drift
#

Cuz my build right now is not great with bosses

#

Sure

#

Thx

versed merlin
#

i like chain sword because its a very versatile melee weapon

pulsar drift
#

Yea I’ve been playing with power sword for too long

versed merlin
#

keep it like this, you still havent wasted your second change slot as it seems. play a little, if you feel like something is missing out, then you can use your 2nd change slot

pulsar drift
#

After getting sunder and pc4 together finally

devout atlas
#

Imho OG chsword is better on Vet. The new one is godmode on Zealot

pulsar drift
#

I think it’s about time to try something new

devout atlas
#

new chaxe fucks on weapon spec

pulsar drift
#

I have all slaughter, rampage, BM, sunder with PC4 powerswords

#

Guess let’s call it end

#

Alright chaxe, chainswords

mystic belfry
#

The new eviscerator is solid

devout atlas
#

mk3 shovel is also very fun and good rn on vet

pulsar drift
#

What about shovels

#

Btw I don’t like DC

mystic belfry
#

I still like the base shovel tbh

pulsar drift
#

For some reason I hate axes too

#

I feel like they’re too boring

#

Just left spam

#

: D kinda hot take

mystic belfry
#

Rashad is nice, the other two are iffy. Tac axes are okay but an acquired taste

pulsar drift
#

DC are good

mystic belfry
#

new chain axe is fine

pulsar drift
#

It’s just me don’t like them

versed merlin
pulsar drift
#

So probably tryout new chainaxe

#

Wat about the old one

devout atlas
#

old one is only good on zealot imho

pulsar drift
#

So okay new chainaxe

#

What about the new two shovels

inland orchid
#

They fuck

#

Hard

pulsar drift
#

Good

inland orchid
pulsar drift
#

That’s what I want to hear

bitter turtle
#

alost made me install the mod

devout atlas
#

mk3 is like a heavy sword crossed with thunder hammer

inland orchid
#

Glad I could be informational

bitter turtle
#

if i actually bothered playing the weapon

versed merlin
mystic belfry
#

I was fine with the laspistol, but I get how that one in particular could be rough

pulsar drift
#

And recommendations for blessings for both new shovel and new chainaxe?

inland orchid
torn needle
#

What are the vets league starting?

devout atlas
devout atlas
#

mk3 is ultra versatile, works on any build. chaxe I'd only use on weapon spec

wide anvil
#

God I wish it was easier to get a Kantrael shotgun to roll Flechette, damned thing being limited as a T2 Blessing makes me sad

#

I love my meme Kantrael Flechette + Scattershot shotgun

torn needle
mystic belfry
#

Silly goose, flechette is for Lawbringer :v

wide anvil
#

Nah imagine

#

Burn + Bleed in a single shot

#

xd

mystic belfry
torn needle
devout atlas
mystic belfry
devout atlas
#

Kant was so overrated for so long ngl

mystic belfry
#

Fire shells are just shoftening

#

I'd consider running weapon specialist and trade out scattershot tbh

devout atlas
#

I'd rather just outright kill them with LB

wide anvil
#

As I said

#

Meme Shotgun build

#

If you take it seriously it loses all its value

devout atlas
#

ik I've done it before

mystic belfry
#

Kantreal is better not because of altfire

#

it's mainfire

rugged goblet
devout atlas
#

it's fun until you see your end of game stats

wide anvil
#

I don't run Scoreboard

#

I can't be assed to look at stats

devout atlas
#

based

wide anvil
#

It's annoying as hell and honestly no one cares about the flex at the end of the day

mystic belfry
#

Lawbringer with man-stopper + flechette and weapon specialist is probably interesting

devout atlas
#

I just use it to judge the builds I run

wide anvil
#

All builds are good if you don't die catnod

mystic belfry
#

I just like having a scoreboard to look at

devout atlas
#

nah

wide anvil
#

No man look look

#

Not being dead = above 0 DPS

devout atlas
#

if that was the case Infiltrate Vet would be best

mystic belfry
#

Nope

torn needle
mystic belfry
#

Speedrun zealot

versed merlin
#

i use scoreboard more as a baseline for how effective i was killing stuff

#

its funny because

#

at the end of the day

mystic belfry
#

it's also cool to see my ranged crit rate with the new revolver :^)

versed merlin
#

no one kills more specials and elites more than the revolver guy in the team

wide anvil
#

I have no respect for speedrun Zealots, especially since I main Zealot myself

#

I always hope they get caught by a hound

versed merlin
#

i gave up on vraks headhunter because that shit takes way too long to pull and to aim

mystic belfry
#

be the hound, shoot a barrel when they run by one near an edge

torn needle
#

Why play revolver when plasma do trick blehhh

terse idol
#

@spare wolf

versed merlin
#

by the time i had my aim at the gunner, the revolver psyker already killed it

mystic belfry
#

Also I'm in love with fanfire :v

terse idol
terse idol
torn needle
#

I'm the revolver psyker

devout atlas
#

Skirmisher Zealots are good, the difference is that they're usually within 50 meters while speedrun Zealots don't stop at that

terse idol
#

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAThanos It didn't work! deadDeluxe

versed merlin
#

revolver is just absolutely nuts

#

cant see any other reason to run any other weapon

torn needle
mystic belfry
#

I be like that with rashad/old revovler and weapon specialist

#

At litterally any momenet any elite/special on the screen can get smoked in .2 of a second

versed merlin
mystic belfry
#

I swapped to the new revolver

torn needle
#

But since they fixed true aim and smite I decided to level a vet instead

sly haven
#

does anyone know how the sustained fire perk actually works

mystic belfry
#

Not because it's better (it's not.) but because

torn needle
#

Now power sword is my new best friend

mystic belfry
#

Fanfire based

devout atlas
#

Crushers make me less nervous than ragers even post nerf. If you have any cara damage they're a joke

mystic belfry
#

PS6 is like mainlining the emporer's crack

sly haven
#

crusher tracking on their overhead is stupid long lasting

versed merlin
#

im that power sword nerd hater guy that will always scream at you "no you cant have fun playing pswords you should try other melee weapons as well. shovel is so based" but the truth is i cant afford a pc3 or 4

mystic belfry
#

Don't even need much carapace damage to handle crushers

sly haven
#

they can do a full 360 on a zealot doding around them

devout atlas
#

just stagger them

sly haven
#

thats the neat part

mystic belfry
devout atlas
#

shredders go brr

sly haven
#

they can stagger immune after you stagger once

mystic belfry
#

But if I want to kill everything and hard carry a match, my PS6 + Laspistol build comes out

#

Bosses, crushers, mixed hordes, 30 gunners

#

Doesn't matter they dead

versed merlin
mystic belfry
#

Don't need it with PS6

devout atlas
mystic belfry
#

Las pistol is better for gunners/shooters/shotgunners

#

PS6 kills anything in arms reach easily

sly haven
torn needle
versed merlin
#

oh makes sense then why you run it instead and with power sword

torn needle
versed merlin
mystic belfry
# torn needle Why not... Plasma

Because if I have a PS6, it's in my hands for 90% of the match, and las pistol will draw and start spam hipfiring accurate to the head almost intantly.

devout atlas
torn needle
mystic belfry
#

Plasma has to charge.

versed merlin
#

unless its a ranged guy that's sitting on the other side, then he laspistol it

#

and plasma takes forever to shoot and reload o god

mystic belfry
#

Nah, Plasma is very good

sly haven
mystic belfry
#

it's just not the PS6 try hard build

versed merlin
#

o no im not saying its bad

#

on the contrary

#

but its very slow imo

mystic belfry
#

PS6/Old laspistol is my golden combo

torn needle
#

Plasma shots feel fast to me, I one shot hs all specials and most elites

austere mica
#

Plasma has enough magazine that if you have to reload during a fight than shit is fucked

torn needle
#

Plus it knocks down crushers

mystic belfry
#

it's slower to swap to plasma to smoke gunners than it is to swap to las pistol an smoke them

#

if it's armored I'm going to melee it

#

And I have Krak specifically and only for bulwurks

austere mica
#

Also the blowthrough allows you to shoot straight through crowds

versed merlin
mystic belfry
#

Again, plasma is good, and I have builds that use it

#

But not the tryhard PS6 build

torn needle
mystic belfry
#

Extremely easy

sly haven
#

how exactly does sustained fire work on an autogun

mystic belfry
#

A crusher horde is free

austere mica
#

I run opposite ends of the technological spectrum on my main vet build

mystic belfry
#

Fire bursts

south garnet
#

whereas my psyker is just on the spectrum

mystic belfry
#

PS6 isn't my main build at this point. It's just my sweatest most effective build

torn needle
#

A like plasma because it's really nice long range damage, no fall off, can go through light cover, high cc, and can punch through a whole horde to hit any elite or special. Plus it basically has infinite ammo and mag size to me

jade notch
#

Weapon Specialist Build with PS6 and (Old or New?) Laspistol?

Maybe I should give that a shot.

mystic belfry
#

Plasma is a prime choice for a support build imo

torn needle
#

Support is my shit

#

I love smite dome psyker

gaunt hinge
#

It has falloff doesn't it

mystic belfry
#

Flat shield > dome shield

torn needle
mystic belfry
gaunt hinge
#

It might

versed merlin
jade notch
# mystic belfry old

Now's about as good a time to pick it up for me then, since I main Exec Stance/MF Keystone.

Might as well see how I can make Weapon Specialist work for me.

mystic belfry
#

Flat is harder to use right, but it's better

jade notch
#

Flat Shield being able to stop Hounds/Muties and block Trapper nets makes it really useful in Damnation and above.

mystic belfry
#

Yeah, and it stays up longer on average

jade notch
#

Dome Shield is handy for Shooter squads, admittedly.

austere mica
#

I still need all of the bits for my bayonet build, had a perfect axe pass me by because i was too poor for it

torn needle
#

Dome isn't better because of the numbers, it's better because it mind games the team into staying together. It's both the selfless AND selfish play for all players to get in the dome

mystic belfry
#

it's not catching every bullet coming in your vague direction

#

And you can place two

bitter turtle
torn needle
#

It's genius design

bitter turtle
#

why do you even need dome

#

are gunners regularly shooting you from 360 degree

#

if so

#

then mistakes are made

mystic belfry
versed merlin
bitter turtle
#

hordes dont have guns

mystic belfry
#

Shield one side handle the other

bitter turtle
#

so why do you need the shield to be on all sides

mystic belfry
#

You don't

sly haven
#

thoughts on this roll

bitter turtle
#

just put it on the side

#

the gunners are at

#

!!!

torn needle
#

Dome drags the speed zealots back to the group with the sweet sweet temptation of toughness regen and no ranged pressure thechiyocat

mystic belfry
sly haven
versed merlin
#

its not like i have a psyker on my team every match and all of them have a shield you know

mystic belfry
#

use until you get a better stat roll

versed merlin
#

but im saying that i prefer the dome over the wall

sly haven
#

whats wrong with sustained fire

versed merlin
#

but most psykers that i get dont even have any of those

#

idc but i prefer the dome over the wall

mystic belfry
torn needle
mystic belfry
#

Sustained fire is just not that great

sly haven
#

how does it affect auto guns, do i have to burst the thing with it?

mystic belfry
#

4 round bursts are not generally your play, and if a four round burst it's only adding an average of 10% damage

versed merlin
#

either i never realized how effective the wall is or i have never witnessed a good wall then

mystic belfry
#

yes you would have to burst

#

with pauses

#

You can't tapfire it

#

You also really want dumdum

marble lintel
#

I just noticed this guard is different than the others in the psykanium

austere mica
mystic belfry
#

You can fuck up dome

#

by using dome :v

#

it takes more damage and goes down faster

sly haven
#

i'm not having really any success getting a dumdum 4

bitter turtle
#

was about to say

torn needle
#

Dome is dome, as long as it's down you're kinda fine ThumbsSmile

sly haven
#

i only have dumdum 3

bitter turtle
#

the fuck up is giving up a free charge on your skill

#

not to mention stunning specials

mystic belfry
#

Unless you drop dome against a squad of gunners and it drops in 2.5 seconds

torn needle
#

Take out any active gunners and reapers asap and it'll last just fine

bitter turtle
#

if you could kill the gunners and reapers that fast

#

then why even have anything at all

mystic belfry
#

The other does that but also lasts longer

versed merlin
#

o wait it has a health bar?

mystic belfry
#

yes

bitter turtle
#

just kill everything xd

versed merlin
#

o frick

mystic belfry
#

idr the values. But dome has a longer base duration but flat has a higher hp

#

It's also smaller

#

So when it matters flat lasts longer, and you get two charges

#

Also blocks specials which is >>> toughness regen

bitter turtle
#

mutie trains vs wall is funny

torn needle
mystic belfry
#

It's like watching a bird fly into a glass door

versed merlin
#

thats something that always happens

mystic belfry
#

if they don't want to stay in cohenerency, they can die :v

versed merlin
#

whenever a dome is launched, everyone reappers together

torn needle
versed merlin
#

ikr

torn needle
bitter turtle
#

i gotta say im not very impressed

sleek cairn
#

oo vet chat is here

mystic belfry
#

If they can't stay in coherency the win rate was already lower shields or no

torn needle
mystic belfry
#

Besdies, flat walls can be pretty ambivalent to specific team placement when put in good spots

bitter turtle
#

the toughness regen is pretty whatever compared to specialist stunning and extra charge anyway

torn needle
#

The vast majority of players aren't that good

bitter turtle
#

when are you being shot at in 360 degrees

little path
#

Is there any build that makes the shotguns good?

bitter turtle
#

that a single wall wont cover anyway

#

99% of the firefights in this game are one side pew pew other side

#

what's the build

mystic belfry
#

Nothing, because shotguns are already good :v

the wall is not so tiny that it can only be used in a choke

torn needle
#

Not necessarily, but it's not big either

sleek cairn
#

is this reeeally vet channel

bitter turtle
#

idk what to say, its big enough the majority of the time lul

#

It can barely kill flak

#

Hold up I'm making one

bitter turtle
#

ive almost never played with a psyker using wall and went

#

"wow I wish it could just be bigger"

little path
#

Dome is useful for actually making some forward progress

#

you can have an area to move forward entirely safely in

bitter turtle
#

if you are just trying to move forward

#

why not just use 2 walls

#

dome only advantage is that it protects behind

little path
#

Because you still get less coverage

sleek cairn
#

are psykers usually this divided

torn needle
#

It's still less coverage yes

versed merlin
#

these arguments wont lead to anything

little path
#

you also get toughness regen bonus

whole moon
#

I love dome but dont use it, its a really nice skill to buy a little space. I run Shriek myself tho, like it w BB and Purg

torn needle
#

I like CIRCLE REEEE

bitter turtle
#

you guys act like this game is an open field map design lol

sleek cairn
#

i mean, in vet chat, nobody gives a shit which gun u bring lol

bitter turtle
#

99% of the game is you moving forward

#

in urban level designs

little path
#

it's not always open field

#

but my teamates can and will run into the open

bitter turtle
#

again

little path
#

and get shot by every gunner and sniper

bitter turtle
#

"my teammates are dumbasses" being the #1 arguemnt in favor of dome so far is very not cinvincing

torn needle
#

Dome helps the peepo players by holding the team together which is more valuable than wall cheers

little path
#

doesn't need to convince you

bitter turtle
#

they will run out and get shot to death eventually regardless anyway

versed merlin
bitter turtle
#

if they are bad

torn needle
zealous wyvern
whole moon
#

maps where you have to stay near a data skull really benefit from dome

little path
#

point is to have some more coverage in every area

bitter turtle
#

can i not debate lol

little path
#

same reason I don't build say like

versed merlin
#

you seem aggressive with most of your arguments

bitter turtle
#

you're imagining it

little path
#

laspistol and knife

bitter turtle
#

unless i need to say "in my opinion" in front of every statement or something

little path
#

because then I don't have carapace damage

sleek cairn
mystic belfry
torn needle
bitter turtle
#

in my opinion shovels are for digging poop

sleek cairn
#

might not even be an opinion lol hmm

torn needle
#

Shovel is for burying the heretics after you kill them with it first

whole moon
#

If my opponents have literal shit for brains does that count?

bitter turtle
#

you cant hit your teammates with the shovel so no

slug stagger heavy rashad

torn needle
bitter turtle
#

im not sure what you mean by that

#

he even has frags to knock them down

sleek cairn
#

say more rashad things to me

little path
#

the apgrapiina doesn't do much carapace damage

#

even the slug doesn't do much

#

Also that was my next question

#

why the agrapina

torn needle
#

As long as it staggers that's all you need to get the bonk stick out

mystic belfry
#

With lets you use BM on them without headtaker stacks

sleek cairn
#

also the speed of its heavies

#

and what can't it stagger.

#

nothing

sly haven
#

i hope weapon customization will trully be added at some point

mystic belfry
#

Hence agripna

little path
#

so the agrapina specifically for the slug?

sly haven
#

is columnus V still the best of the iag?

sleek cairn
#

yup

#

that's about that, no need for reasons

little path
#

what about more long range damage?

sleek cairn
#

however if u want to use it, best u go to psyker channel

devout atlas
sleek cairn
#

alright what he said then. Debatable. i retract my case

torn needle
#

Psyker toothpick is just as strong as a powered up power sword, big funny

bitter turtle
#

pretty sure it does the most dmg still at least

#

but its always been a tradeoff of recoil/accuracy at long ranges vs damage

sleek cairn
#

well bill cosby said columnus is not the best IAG

vague lintel
#

what are the differences between the mk7 and mk3 shovel? they seem kinda similar to me

sleek cairn
#

that means the graia or agri might be the best

#

who knows, it's a toss up now

#

by process of elimination

whole moon
little path
#

I'm pretty sure columnus has like

#

highest overall dps?

sly haven
#

i still lean col v but hapopy to see if the other iags are good or better

sleek cairn
#

he's not wrong though, you can debate it. dunno if u'll win the debate

#

but you CAN debate lol

little path
#

but just lacks the more ranged damage

mystic belfry
#

here's a more colorful build

frank ledge
#

Just run hh

mystic belfry
#

Personally I'd swap to shout for this one though.

little path
#

okay um

frank ledge
#

All of the hh deniers on their way to explain that landing headshots hard

little path
#

I guess the question about shotguns for me would be

frank ledge
little path
#

is there a reason to use them over an IAG

#

or a lasgun?

sleek cairn
frank ledge
#

Pull out speed

mystic belfry
#

Which IAG

sleek cairn
#

what is the reasoning for that one

little path
#

any braced or IAG

mystic belfry
flint garden
sleek cairn
#

i get it

mystic belfry
#

And you get more cleave on crit

frank ledge
#

Shotguns are extremely fast to pull out, agripina deals more armor damage with special shot and kantrael has decent fire stacking for bosses

mystic belfry
#

And crit bleeds

little path
#

Wouldn't I just melee hordes?

mystic belfry
#

Both, for that build

#

Alternate

compact briar
#

which kantrael infantry is best for marksman shootery

little path
#

the lasguns?

compact briar
#

yea

mystic belfry
#

Not the lowest damage one

#

Either of the other two

compact briar
#

i been playing with the hellbore 2 but im not loving it

#

cause its slow pull out

sleek cairn
#

I believe the lawbringer is special tho. that shot... hits so many units.

#

it's awesome

mystic belfry
#

it's kinda like a taste of old duckbill saltz

little path
#

The mk 12 is highest damgae

#

BUT

#

lowest overall dps

#

the other two have higher dps

#

enough to be noticable

solemn galleon

#

buuuut then again it's still your choice

mystic belfry
sleek cairn
#

good shit all around

bitter turtle
#

only swap to push

#

might help

whole moon
#

Im enjoying a Powersword/Plasma combo myself

bitter turtle
#

lul

solemn galleon
#

ps6/plasma?

mystic belfry
#

I'd run las pistol or revolver with ps6 myself

#

Plasma is fine though

whole moon
#

may switch to shovel tho, just no beating the ps6 right now tho

little path
#

I don't like running the last pistols or recon lasguns

mystic belfry
#

I run plasma with old shovel on my support build usually

little path
#

sure they work

whole moon
#

just fancy a change

bitter turtle
#

you shouldn't like running the recon

#

its shit

sleek cairn
#

plus there's also personal skill to factor in. if u're really good with a shovel, that might be better for u lol

mystic belfry
#

Doesn't like laspistol
We're enemies now

sleek cairn
#

and shovel is a really good wep

compact briar
little path
#

laspistols and reconds are basically the same

#

they both just build for infernus crit

mystic belfry
#

PS6 is the best overall melee hands down. But that doesn't mean it's always the correct weapon for your needs in X build

bitter turtle
mystic belfry
#

With Plasma, you mostly want to stay save and have anti-horde

bitter turtle
#

just for the big ones and hordes

mystic belfry
#

i.e. shovel.

#

PS6 can fill that roll too, but shovel specializes in it

little path
#

PS also gives carapace damage though

#

incase you're out of kraks

mystic belfry
#

PS6 does everything.

sleek cairn
#

yup

frank ledge
#

when in doubt
old shovel

whole moon
#

recons are terrible for ammo use right now, to function they (at least to me) appear to consume almost every ammo pack to keep going, almost every other ranged weapon for every class has a better resource/kill ratio

mystic belfry
#

Also were were just talking about plasma

#

You can just plasma crushers

sleek cairn
#

again, i dont want to funnel every player towards ps6, i'd prefer they experiment all of them

mystic belfry
#

Run smoke or shredder with plasma

mystic belfry
versed merlin
#

hmmm do i buy this? whatthefuck_heresy

little path
#

The devs need to make the PS work less well against hordes

whole moon
#

i definitely wouldnt recommend a ps to a new player, their mats are too valuable, much better option is a chainsword. almost as good

sleek cairn
mystic belfry
#

I wouldn't call ps6 braindead

#

i know a guy who can only play devil claw lol

excellent thanks y'all

sleek cairn
#

aha try ps6, if it doesnt suit u, practice ur devil claw

mystic belfry
#

Devil claw 4 is a very solid weapon

sleek cairn
#

yup

brisk sapphire
#

Claw felt competitive when rampage was OP

versed merlin
#

emphasis at the trying

mystic belfry
#

it still is

sleek cairn
#

its great

tardy turtle
whole moon
#

they nerfed the claws parry vs crusher overhead didnt they?

mystic belfry
#

I've tanked two bosses in melee at the same time with a claw sword before

versed merlin
#

idk about the 4, but i got a really good one with good rolls and perks, so decided to give it a try its solid for hordes, but feels awful for mixed hordes

mystic belfry
#

4 is needed for heavy 1

sleek cairn
#

@versed merlin seriously if u have an interest in mastering devil claw, keep at it.

mystic belfry
#

You really really want that strikedown

versed merlin
#

ohh ok

sleek cairn
#

there are really good players who swear by devil claw only

mystic belfry
#

it turns clawsword from an okay parry meme to a great weapon

versed merlin
#

the parry feels good, but whenever i parry a rager during horde, i somehow lose half my toughness KEKW_ogryn

mystic belfry
#

Part of the problem with claw vs. armor/ragers is that if you're waiting to get attacked, or they're not attacking you

#

your dps goes in the bin and kills are slow

#

heavy 1 gives access to decent single target damage, and be weaved in between parries

#

And you still have light spam, or light/heavy 2 mix ups for horde clear

solemn galleon
#

best perks/blessings for plasma?

versed merlin
#

also, outside of hordes, they dont really feel like a option for single targets that arent ragers. could be just me, but dmg felt really lacking

sleek cairn
#

no way around it, devil claw is built this way

mystic belfry
#

Gets Hot! with Blaze Away or Gloryhunter

whole moon
#

I never got round to getting to grips w the Claw, Ive got a Mk IV that TinyCrab recommended before they left. I must make an effort but so much to do and play with lol

You want one of these

#

shame as they were really knowlegable on all things vet too, especially DClaws

sleek cairn

dclaw is so so good still

The big thing with parry is that you need to be aware of where the counter attack travels

whole moon
mystic belfry
#

Look up and to the right to headshot ragers for example

sleek cairn
#

suguyama, do u run rightside tree

versed merlin
#

actually

#

no pepeshy

mystic belfry
#

Sweep is usually better unless you have a specific use for crits

versed merlin
#

not with dclaw

#

a okok

sleek cairn
#

just wondering if u ran any rending/brittle

#

could help u while u train

torn needle
#

No keystone vets rise up

sleek cairn
#

i can't help u, im not a dclaw user; but real recognises real.

hmm maybe i can try a shotgun/dclaw weap spec

any of the top tier melee weps, u can probably solo carry ur runs ez

sleek cairn

I can give you want I'm using right now but it's still being tinkered with

terse idol
#

Will give you the buffs

versed merlin
bitter turtle
terse idol
#

also yeah

bitter turtle
#

the melee speed is the best part

versed merlin
#

yeah 1 buff is already enough

sleek cairn
#

lol yeah i literally kill any ol thing and i have speedhax

torn needle
#

I run plasma so the extra fire speed does nothing and the crit is eh, the extra melee speed is decent but by the time I take out plasma and shoot to get a kill, I could have just slashed a few more times with ps6 and cleared up even more enemies

versed merlin
#

absolutely, the atk speed is hot damn crazy

#

oh try it with revolver

#

its crazy good

torn needle
#

I horde control just fine with ps6 without the buff so it feels unnecessary

#

Yeah with revolver I can see it being amazing

sleek cairn
#

i think revolver and plasma can use specialist best

torn needle
#

Like true aim on psyker

bitter turtle
#

plasma takes out and shoots pretty fast

sleek cairn
#

Revolver is god tier on rightside

bitter turtle
#

it works well with specialist as well

#

reload is the slow part on plasma

#

which specialist also helps with

sleek cairn
#

yeah

torn needle
#

It does, but I'd rather take long shot for one point instead to get much higher base damage and hit more breakpoints

sleek cairn
#

2nd place to plasma for rightside tree

terse idol
#

I will say, I do think it might be overkill if you're using it to fish crits

#

Isss the goal, to one shot crushers with a left click headshot?

sleek cairn
#

im not sure what ur sacrificing to 1 shot

#

if it's VoC

#

dont sacrifice it

versed merlin
#

wait with plasma or revolver?

torn needle
#

Ps6 already has amazing horde control and clear with the 10% you get before it, the 15% feels like overkill to me and if it's very high pressure taking out the plasma just isn't the right play sometimes

pulsar drift
#

Both greats

torn needle
#

It's a great keystone though, just not for me

pulsar drift
#

Plasma gun is never need to reload

#

Revolver is faster

torn needle
#

Plus imo the points after the keystone are very underwhelming, possible a lukewarm take

pulsar drift
#

Yup

sleek cairn
#

thats about it

pulsar drift
#

That’s the only modifier rly needed

sleek cairn
#

but that alone makes me never leave the keystone LOL

#

it's that important to me

versed merlin
#

i agree with that, but they can be benefitial for certain situations

sleek cairn
#

that i can unbind R.

torn needle
#

Reload during the transition door scans and that's it

versed merlin
#

but i dont run any of them tho, if i had to, id take 2 only for the extra toughness whenever you swap weapons, but that might be an overkill

sleek cairn
#

@torn needle well that's the thing, ppl taking rightside tree arent too conscious about their gun.

They play vet to melee, the gun is just a way to supplement.

mystic belfry
torn needle
#

But yeah I get that it's super convenient

mystic belfry
#

That's my current setup

sleek cairn
#

its just weapon specialist is very good for those of us using melee for the majority

torn needle
#

The best keystone, the mark one, is on the crappiest line imo

torn needle
sleek cairn
#

the line with iron will n rending and such?

torn needle
sleek cairn
#

but u said u like the marking

mystic belfry
#

I'm also trying this a bit

versed merlin
#

wait are crushers considered elite? or are they specials?

mystic belfry
#

Elite

bitter turtle
#

elites

#

specials are the ones that have sound cues

versed merlin
#

actually, what are considered elites and specials in this game?

#

ahh

#

arent they disablers?

torn needle
bitter turtle
#

elites = normal enemy movesets, usually spawn on the map from the start

versed merlin
#

or are disablers the same as specials? PsyduckConfused

bitter turtle
#

specials = spawned by the director with sound cues (except sniper which has no sound cue)

mystic belfry
#

The above builds have astronimcal crit rate of fanfire revolver btw

sleek cairn
mystic belfry
#

Like actually insane

sleek cairn
#

im imagining a crab

#

left pincer, right pincer

#

bitter turtle
#

not all specials are disablers

torn needle

#

unless you count "killing you" as disabling

#

which I guess snipers and bombers and flamers do

sleek cairn
#

its ok u dont have to show me bluggy, im just making conversation

#

I don't have the game open rn

versed merlin
#

ahhhhh okok thamk prayge

torn needle
flint garden
#

specialists are all grouped next to each other in the pskyarium

#

Anyone know exactly how crucian roullet works? Is it just flat 6% crit per missing bullet or is it percent based on mag size? Cause if its 6% per missing bullets that seems very strong on some guns and weaker on others

mystic belfry
# mystic belfry

The big thing thise boss does is frontline against mixed hordes and kill bosses very very well

#

You can just pick up demonhosts and throw them in the trash can

sleek cairn
#

im guessing u stop at Iron Will, skip 10% rending/ogryn/monstrosity and take Precision for 30% weak spot and the 25% ammo after it?

versed merlin
#

wait so if you hit the +15 elite and +20 ogryn can you reach new breakpoints on a crusher with regular shots plasma gun?

mystic belfry
#

yes

versed merlin
#

o shit

#

i should take those then

mystic belfry
#

Maybe

topaz lance
# mystic belfry

Almost exactly what I am running (but with the rashad axe and old revolver). Been thinking about getting rid of the realod speed keystone mod and picking d&d or the stam mod instead.

sleek cairn
#

#

this guy right here, im adding u

#

which region are u in @topaz lance

versed merlin
#

man rashad axe is great, but i made the mistake of running it with inexorable zealot and now i cant play it on vet without all that attack speed

bitter turtle
#

i find the reload speed one a little redundant since teh whole point of reserve is to NOT reload

versed merlin
#

used to be my fav weapon

bitter turtle
#

but i can see the point at least

bitter turtle
#

sometimes you need to shoot more than 1 bullet

#

nothing wrong with that

Question does it feel like that the professional veteran personality is the most “normal” out of all the human personalities?

torn needle
topaz lance
mystic belfry
#

But yeah, rough draw out of Fanfire crit chance:

If you just drew the revolver, it has 100% crit on the first shot from Weapon Specialist.

Base crit is 5%, 21% from 80 critical bonus on the gun, and 25% from deadshot.

First shot from a load if you didn't just draw it gets +10% from Opening Salvo.

Roulette is +6% per missing shot, so between 6-24% crit

#

You crit more often than you don't even without weapon specialist

torn needle
#

Krak feels like the strongest nade to me, frags always felt weak

sleek cairn
#

its interesting u'd choose to use fanfire on a keystone that only affects first shot

mystic belfry
#

And weirdly, your lowest crit chance shot is the second round from your gun. because opening salvo gives +10%

whole moon
#

I think it depends on your build focus. I like having more anticrusher options

astral blade
mystic belfry
#

krak is my least favorite vet nade

sleek cairn
#

smoke is my fav!

#

im always coughing

mystic belfry
#

if i run krak, it's specifically for bulwurks

bitter turtle
#

frags are straight up the best ever since they buffed horde density

whole moon
#

I use Krak and double nades just in case of a crusher pack and the Omissiah smiles

For me I always run frags

im glad the chat vouches for all 3 nades.

it's just neat

when i use kraks, its because i have tinker and i really need some bossing done

bitter turtle
#

im talking about when they spawn in 20 ragers

#

and ya

sleek cairn
#

its not for crushers

bitter turtle
#

i only really ever liked krak for monstro stun

mystic belfry
#

Also, having 50% Reload speed on fanfire is fun

bitter turtle
#

makes them stand still for like 10 seconds

torn needle
#

I like krak because they stumble bosses which is really cheese

bitter turtle
#

but monstros are whatever nowadays

sleek cairn
#

a boss i mean

mystic belfry
#

Krak has one good use

#

Bulwurks

astral blade
#

Frags for horse control Chainsword for abit of everything and my col IGA for high priority targets

sleek cairn
#

i do it all the time, i throw a smoke and the boss is like "oh no, i have asthma"

#

it stumbles

mystic belfry
#

That's it the only reason I run krak on some builds

sleek cairn
#

coughing.

torn needle
#

Frags stumble monsters?

astral blade
#

Aka specials/eiltes/monstrosities

Frag does stumble bosses

I'll have to check it out then
