Gives you time to revive mid horde
Without needing the scrub trap debuff to your shout
Look if fs makes smokes delete bomber fire I'd consider running them
the revive should would be legit
Only thing I hate about krak nades is the under hand throw doesn’t lock on to carapace
Anymore
Copy it from cs2
Also loose cannon is funny
if you ran knife + revive shout
came back to this game after hella long (last i played was early access), there's so many new weapons and stuff and new talent trees, quite lost honestly
and just evade till the rescue area and revive all 3 lul
"TRAXIS SOMETHING... SOMETHING... KILL EEET"
Never ever revive shout
i wanted to do that but then I shouted and it did nothing
Not evne once
Make it delete all fire (bomber and flamer) and beast of nurgle puke.
WORTHLESS node
ong
Honestly shout revive is soft grief
Oh you just reminded me, dome also cheeses beast of nurgle hard 
get revived into 3 over heads
revive shout sounds good on paper until you realise it has a 1 minute cooldown and less range so you cant use it as a 'get this fucking horde off me' option anymore
True
have u tried reviving them in bomber fire
unironically, but not because of the overheads
i hard grief
it's because of the lower uptime
Shout more >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> shout revive
stand on a box and revive them in the updated fire. they might rage quit
Yeah
“Find me now you fraggers”
i tried the new revolver, quite ok
im playing veteran to shout more, not less
The base time with the cool down reset is tooo valuable
New revolver is not my favorite gun in the game
only issue is melee
lol i watched a guy accidentally do it. he revived a guy in fire twice and his body instantly ragdolled.
Not by anymeans the best gun in the game, just my favorite
power sword kinda sucks for me idk why
i hope they're not done with vet tree changes tbh
I know why
who cares about meta when its as fun as it is to use
powered up hits only last like two heavies which is 
Someone did that to me yesterday and revived me in bomber fire and I just instantly fell over LMAO
swap surv/frag into the middle lane if you want to leave smoke nades as garbo as they are now
funniest shit really.
Are you using 3 or 6
Like, reviving with infiltrate or stealth, cool but folks gotta learn how to revive safe, because the 3 rager revive isn't goooood
3
And shout revive is sooo not good
That's part of your problem :v

I'll revive them under the most intense pressure, do not worry
ur gonna get up and u're going to like it
idk when i got this but as i said last i played was early access or something
there's nothing he can do but spectate me
Sometimes I'll risk a 90% chance of death to revive someone
Othertimes I'll stay with dead fish eyes as they despawn
Change to flak and maniac and you got a good sword
“Low profile engaged redeploying”
🤔 Why did you put weak spot damage on it
i got a mk6 with pc4 and rampage 4. shits funny
Do not use flak with power swords
Maniac + Elite/Carapace/Unyielding
What would you recommend?
using unyielding on power swords!
Unyield big yeah
I use elite on power swords
Don’t know why but I love professional ver infiltration voice lines
maniac unyield on mine
Maniac Elite
Carapace is the best one if your damage is a bit low on your roll
To get your two-shot
My ps6 naturally rolled flak 25 and sprint eff so I had to take what I can get..
What blessings
pain. it is what it is
Wait does krak nades track carapace if thrown under arm
A dead one and sunder 4, so I swapped the dead one to cycler 4
... Ouch
So it's flak/maniac sunder/cycler
I can change one thing, what should it be?
At least you have cycler and maniac I suppose
headhunter?
Sunder cleave feels fine
it's usable
u have deadly accurate but do u have the crit to keep it up
I've got this mk7 shovel
pretty sure I could swap infested to flak, and thrust to decimator? basically make it like the OG shovel, which this basically is
Instead of salvo?
Just leave the blessings
yes but if u have a lot of crit..
because u dont get good value out of deadly accurate without crit
I don't really know, I've been trying to find a good build
I feel ya
flak/maniac it is then
then lets assume u want headhunter so u can use deadly accurate better
it'll help
Are plasma blessings even worth going for if you don't care for crit?
You probably want maniac or unarmored on that lasgun
What about the crit damage perk, is that ok to keep?
tbh i have no idea what u should do about the perk
Gets Hot + Gloryhunter or Blaze Away
Don't worry about crits, they just add value passively
would u use ur plasma on a boss
Mine has get hot 4
I melee bosses.
I mean yeah, why not if you can't get in melee at a moment
Good good, just slap on gloryhunter or blazy away and you're good to go
Also plasma knocks down the twins on headshot
I mean, it's damage, I guess
on my fkn Psyker... thanks Brunt... knob
lol just finding a way to make the blaze argument better
not really serious
Blaze away is good, but really only comes into it's own during spamfire in auric missions imo
but why would somebody not run auric in this chat
hmm
I think plasma with %elite and maniac plus long shot hits dreg gunner headshot one shot..
And still hits special one shots
if they're asking for help, i assume they are playing a difficulty high enough to force them here for questions lol
I embarrased myself so badly last Auric, I'm still feeling it. ashamed to show my face in the queues
Auric is big fun
oh shit, which region
Its time to add Kal
i gotta be there for u kal
No one cares go back in
lol EU for me but funny times
I'm trying out vet now because psyker got a little stale, and true aim got fixed 
noo another EU
I'm central but I like just playing with randoms mostly
@whole moon be truthful, did u get grabbed by every mutant
or maybe get hit by every poxburster
Bonked by poxwalkers
woke both DHs then forgot I had a bossmelter Ogryn build then kept trying to res a player surrounded. ALL the tactical mistakes in one round 😦
Solid
Grief maxing
i can't live that down
yup 😦 ashamed
i'd just die inside
I once woke up a demonhost because my team wouldn't stop shooting fucking pox bursters in my face
That's the actual only thing in the game you can do to get me tilted
When the martyr thammer zealot goes up to the sleeping dh and bonks her so hard the health bar doesn't even appear
not even rescuing ur body on bomber fire?
until u ragdoll?
That's just minorly annoying
what about taking marking keystone and tapping in rhythm to this

Or when someone shoots a yellow barrel you are next to with an automatic weapon and blows it up instantly

i will find what makes u break Ascend
Don't care, friendly trolling
loool damnit
I just told you
ONLY poxbursters in ur face?
Litterally only
how is that one scenario so much more triggering
it just is
so even if Kal wakes up two demonhosts consecutively
Do you play martyr zealot ascend?
it's worse than actual dilberate griefing
I mean, sometimes I guess?
That's not why though
maybe it's the feedback of getting thrown in to the sky
I'll give you some health syringes cuz your health is looking a bit low 
MFW you wake up a demon host
MFW the tenth fucking pox burster blows up in my face
I will litterally start pushing pox bursters at them after the second time
Make sure to blow them up in front of ascend at the right angle to get a ledge fall too

play rocket league with his body
but have u thought of just.. not pushing the poxburster
letting it hop on them
even if u tried to push it towards them, they'll blow it up in ur face again
u wont win that trade
My favorite thing in the game is also oddly specific
Linebackers throwing people directly into the death void
No ledge grab just dead
that's really rare right
Yeah
they're programmed not to do it lol
Cracks me up whenever it happens
Mag gloves can work so far
More barrels have killed me with instant death falls from my team blowing them up than they've been remotely useful
usually its on auric maelstrom with the "extra barrels and poxbursters" mod
I stay away from all barrels
I hit all of them
Naaah, fire barrels are love, fire barrels are life
He gets it.
All barrels deserve removal
i mean its not the fire barrels i dislike
If I see a barrel I shoot at it before team moves up
The fucking revolver vet whenever 30 ragers spawn but he wont stay back with team
lool
They toast my feet when I play marytr
i mean you would win. but not that guy apparently
Its either that or a zealot most of the time
Nah swarmed plus other adds and hes far up
Ah i guess i found him
This u? @sleek cairn
When the swarm of ragers swarms for the 14th time in less then 2 minutes
me? not with team is definitely not me
but # of any units in a congaline? im there
YEEEEEAAAHHH!!!
gimme a door to spam E to boot
My power sword hungers for the ragers
In b4 4 flak ragers come from behind to give you some devious backshots
My above exe stance fanfire build melts rager swarms btw
Absolutely dumpsters them
I want to SLICE them
im not afraid of ragers usually.. lol
i just dive right in, i mean we have VoC, wuts to worry about
Also claw sword shits on ragers swarms too
OK here we go
I know this its Vets, but I love beating the absolute shit... out of ragers as Ogryn.
lets not even talk about ps6 vs ragers lol even easier i assume
Best ps6 is probably cycler/bm right?
Yes
ya
Lol
any PS version will shit on ragers, heavy swipes can stagger groups
The poke into strike down is so gooooood
but hes right if theres a vet not with his team, hes playing it risky. u never know if a trapper is hiding behind a bulwark
thats when ascend's plasma comes out
pew
I don't run plasma with ps6
no kill like overkill
A team who chops together, stays together.
Rashad is good
chop suey
Bless you
I do like a good Rashad horde chop
good? u mean great.
it loves a head hitbox
im gonna be honest, i chop legs too lol it still one shots
I do legs whenever I see a welding helmet
very satisfying to see the actual head lop off
thats probably why i cant peel off of it
i like the subtle head lopping off. I dont notice it as much on power sword
Long as I'm choppin up heretics I'm happy.
im probably a little too happy with rashad, i keep getting overly aggressive
NO BAD
I hope they give us a M40 autogun at some point
HEAD ONLY NO LEG
Good man
i will correct my ways.
I believe in you
but what if i told u my plasma still headshots when im trying to aim at sniper toes
i can't help it
i have to aim at the legs
Plasma has massive weakpoint hitbox it's easy
sometimes im not sure i know how to aim at all
lol i went overkill on the rashad breakpoints, i can actually oneshot no matter where so Brutal momentum lets me keep on
No
does it not?
Weakspot kills only
oh shit ur right
Yep
You suffer from the same thing that makes people think sunder is as good as brutal momentum
Skill issue or mistaking normal cleave for being equivalent to BM :v
no i dont suffer, i really dont try to aim for legs lol
i really do want BM to hit 4 primary targets
Smh backtracking now
Yes
for rashad, anything
Chop head
dont wave ur pee-sword in my face tho, i wont take it up
Rashad + Old revolver with weapon specialist is digusting
Disgusting? im a practical god with it
Exactly
but that's where it gets tricky, u feel so unstoppable u just.. charge in
start getting cocky lol
Is A Slow and Insidious Killer
Go Buy Darkest Dungeon! It's pretty dang good: http://store.steampowered.com/app/262060/
need a way to tone it down
Just dodge more
You can dodge side to side while still mowing hordes like dry grass
Hey is the bayonet bug still in the game ?
where the cockiness fails me is playing the game on mute listening to music
thats how cocky u can get
"wut poxburster? didnt hear one; dont care."
tbh i think it's more so VoC making me cocky
if theres a single part of vet that's made me overly confident, it's probably VoC
No but you don't need it
Can turn the ingame music off to switch out what you're listening to, but leave game sounds on silly goose
Listen to some nice doom music :)
Nope that's not the groove
Listen to the most relaxing music
The groove is when the brain stops thinking and you murder and react in like a quarter of the time
you're experiencing the skill issue smh
the idea of playing this game with the sound off is absolutely psychotic
it's like a self handicap. im grooving to the music not the game
dont worry its not even for teammates, usually solos too. even more psychotic
yea it's basically playing with a blindfold on
i dont bring down others
i wouldnt play seriously with the game on mute, that'll probably get me death threats
and uh, a lot of cussing
it's very easy to tell who can't hear the game during a match, that's for sure
on a real note, im not so sure some of my teammates care
I don't really care if someone does it so long as they don't expect me to carry their slack and go out of my way to keep them alive
im pretty certain they have sound on lol
but they still die
to... surprise poxbursters
cuz if its anything that kills me 100% on muted game, it's surprise poxbursters. u have no idea they're coming around the corners
it's madness
tried ps6 feels hella slow compared to 3
but it really is faster to handle enemies
Light attack to horde clear. Push attack -> light attack for single targets
Cancel your charge animation with block
You can't sprint at full speed while using charge, it's the only real tradeoff
reciprocity affects ranged attacks too right?
I'm just double checking I haven't been goofing this entire time
ask @mystic belfry i've definitely been humiliating myself
Hmmm why people are disliking the new las pistol? Is pretty cool I do 200 damage per shot could use improved fire rate but aside that nitpick I think is pretty alright
only heard good things about new laspistol
if staggering is the issue just take a melee that can handle ragers easier
I prefer the old model
Oh cool! I only saw people only writing they didn't feel too good with it
I like both
people seem to only want to take the best two items at any given time but people often lose out on some neat weapons by refusing to take another that accomodates its playstyle
can't fault for feel though. stats are less important to me than how the gun feels.
They should've done 2 las pistol new one in right hand and other in left
dear shatfark, please let me dual wield shredder pistols so I can become the ammo vacuum I was born to be
what are the best blesings for this autogun?
Honestly to me the new las pistol feels like a revolver but is laser
ooh I know this one! dumdum first, then either fire frenzy or deathspitter
Yes I like that toooo
fire frenzy and deathspitter work extremely similarly so the numbers difference is negligible between the two. just remember dumdum first
Disgusting
Dumdum fire frenzy
Shoots too slow
I only really know about the iags nowadays because I've spent the last 50+ hours running one on every class
Yep.
what blessings should I put on power sword?
power cycler 4 and whatever removes hit mass
Brutal momentum and power cycler
thanks
that one
Power cycler, then either bm or sunder
I see you don't have a frenzy for the dual wielding 
Yes sunder
why do we dislike sunder
BM is better. sunder is a filler that makes normal cleave slightly better overall
Idk really. Ppl are parotting azreal while even him said that sunder was fine
BM gives more cleave that kills enemies in one shot
okay cause melk just sold me a sword with brutal momentum 4
wow
That's hot
It's not like other stuff isn't usable, it's just better
keep the bm. do you have cycler yet? because a lot of die hard ps players refuse to use them without it.
are the other variants of infantry autogun worth cheking?
The min for a good sword imo is maniac damage, power cycler 3, and brutal momentum 1
still waiting for melk to give me it
In any case, sunder is safer against rager, bulwark, crusher, mauler compared to bm
kinda? there are two other ones, one has about half the bullets the columnus does for a little under double the damage, and the other one just feels like a slower columnus
What does sunder do again?
Improve cleave by 400% and remove hit stop on carapace/shield hit
In other word, you can cleave through bulwark shield
I haven't seen ppl run the numbers on the other guns but I would be willing to bet that they are worse simply because the slower fire rates of the other two guns mean you stack dumdum slower
okay that sounds nice
I think it gives 3 target hit minimum
dumdum being as strong as it is kinda pushes the other two guns out of viability
The problem being to still get the full effect of a harsh drop in damage as per usual on cleave
and so with the agrapinna you're left with this slow firing, almost dmr playstyle, but the spread is just wide enough that it's difficult to reliably land headshots and take advantage of talents like longshot.
But I do run krak specifically for bulwurks on power sword for good reason
tldr just use the columnus
Demo:
Exibity A on why it's bad
Can't believe I replaced my sunder 4 with BM 4
200 damage
Look at this dude
:p
Have a little imagination
I have the ability to think yes, hence why I don't find sunder that impressive
This guy get staggered
It's usable
Which is why I say that sunder is safer.
I mean it's the third target of carapace damage mit. it means he can reliably hit the enemies behind the bulwark, not just fight multiple bulwarks at once. if you're really struggling with bulkwarks that much you have a krak grenade for a reason
it's alread ya safe sword because you can block and dodge while waiting to just poke
Sunder allows you to distribute stagger across way more elite dude
Not needed
Nobody care about what you need. The point is that both BM and sunder brings thing to the table
I mean I can believe that peak performance takes BM but not everyone plays the game like a robot
Specifically, sunder is better than bm on no ammo maelstrom
Wrath also brings something to the table
Again, the point is on bm vs sunder. don't move the goal post
You could also run slaughterer
Slaughterer is weaker than bm
I'm not, I'm using the same reason you gave
again, don't move the goal post
it brings something to the table
avoid this argument use the shovel
Yes I play the game like a Cadian and always risking my life for teammates
that deserves a class with 3 las pistols with the special ability to no reload and firing it like a minigun
original shovel will always hold a special place in my heart but something about being able to instakill ragers with a shovel is very funny
Here's another question: how many flak rager can a PS touch in one hit ?
I have not the foggiest
Yes we need dual shovel tho
Well, it does matter on hab dreyko final event
I don't agree
I already know
I will agree that in a world where BM didn't exist I'd go for sunder next
At the end of the day, I am not the one dismissing what bm does. IMO sunder is safer against mixed horde and i will die on that hill
I can see where you're coming from, with it staggering more enemies , and swinging through shields
But you also get more safetly in killing faster too, it's not so clear cut

if it helps understand my stance at all. I do setup my build to help handle things like bulwurks, and do things to help when more stagger is needed that moment
BM does not kill faster agaisnt elite horde because of density. BM is better against parse group, sunder has comparable or better performance otherwise
The push attack combo is naturally let with a push, which will stall the horde for a moment. Krak nades will kill one or more bulwurks at a time. And of course, shout exists as well
In practice, sunder allows you to hit 2 to 3 TIMES more target per hit. Which is relevant for stagger more so than for damage
I can see, and even agree than sunder does a better job at just tapping more enemies at once, but with the kit we're given I don't think it matters enough to be all that relevant
happaned again
Noooo not Kruber

Be interesting to see how that pans out
Makes sense as to why the moved the button to swap to the auric board to the top right
Never had it
Mission Terminal
When it says "Connecting" in the mission terminal, you can see it
Lower Right
Special assignments for the most special operatives :)
You mean the pfp looking slightly different? Tbh I've never really paid attention to it, maybe is on purpose made out of fattysharky laziness?
its a button on the lower right
That's the settings for changing region or put private match?
its when it says "Connecting" on the mission board
you can see it
keep old or try to upgrade this boy too ? hm
ah yes , its appears there a most of the time randomly when you first time opening missions there
mb its a future update ? we got new video with a radio so what if that is thing
I mean to me it doesn't say connecting when I open the mission board it does it instantly
I'm confused
Also
@urban steppe cute pfp
+3 stam curios don't exist :/
yeahh
when is it even a good option to use the secondary charged attack on the plasma gun?
I do understand what veteran veterans mean when they say veteran is tanky. I can see it now. I dunno how much I like it being tied to voice of command though.
i think that will be new feature what i heard from a last video . something more hardcore mission than a mael
with a lot of enemys and more boss fights
More harder than malestorm? What they're gonna make every enemy a mauler and crusher plus sending it like hordes and specials spawning constantly all over the place?
I use it all the time
Get fucked kiddo 
if you listen last video you will understood , i think more boss fights than ? or more stronger boss fights ? or a new special strong boss foghts ?
because what you hearing there its like there will be a lot of enemys mb more than on mael , and something strong boss
is the new chainsword sweep/ramp ?
is it better to spam regular attacks for boss dps on plasma or charged shots?
I was just teasing, tho I don't think anything can get harder than my idea. Hmmm maybe hordes of chaos spawns with beasts of nurgle, and pox bursters and trappers spawning constantly
Spam feels like I'm using a slightly stronger bolter
Charged attacks do more damage but consume more ammo oh and drastically heat up more the weapon
should i keep going ?
You can kill an entire train of ragers with 1 charged shot
you can change blessings but not stats, up to you tho
if you have mod that tell how good stats are from 1% to 80% you can decide better
Agreed
There's better autoguns
what blessings are people putting on the new chainaxe?
It really comes into it own gets hot
The critical hit damage on uncharged shots is just too good.
You're basically getting another 3 ammo worth's of damage for free, and you can constantly bounce between 80% and 100% heat with uncharged shots.
that's already a modifier
scab only, melee enemies + waves of specialist enemies = maulers and crushers and specialists all over the place
They don't send it in hordes tho like normal poxwalkers or you know mobs
yeah ok
oi pro players melk had this toy and i want to switch up my powersword for a bit get or nah
i'm using headtaker bloodthirsty
but its the old chainaxe, though, from what i've seen in the psyk they're the same just with attack patterns reversed between lights and heavies
i should be more specific in that old chainaxe lights chewed without special action and used heavies for horde clear cleave, new chainaxe is just the inverse
I haven't tested much but I feel charged has better penetration
Oh, absolutely.
Killing 10 elites is just too satisfying
But plasma gun with gets hot plays like revolver
This is good to get although it's a 3 out of 4
pull it out, oneshot a bunch of enemies, go back to meleeing
Ye
Replace All or Nothing with Brutal momentum
And plasma gun lets you full charge shots to kill 8 ragers in one
Crit damage to flak or maniac
Best blessing combo on that weapon for Vet imo
Easily
Is there a magic word I can use to somehow convince my random teammates to place their ammo bags? just had a really sad wipe because I was out of ammo and the gunners wiped the entire team 
or ask them in text chat
Ppl usually put them down if you ask
But I don't usually need ammo so idk I don't ask much
I usually just yell in text chat “AMMO NOW” and normally if someone is carrying an ammo cache they will drop it
Will try doing it in caps then 
Just make it sound urgent when ya in the red for ammo
yesn't
I've had some people ignore me
I've had people respond to being asked
Usually they put it down if I ask
funny if all three people put down their crates at once
had that happen more than a few times
👍
I mean most of the time people on Oceana servers who have the ammo cache will normally drop it as long as you make it sound urgent
They normally won’t drop ammo if you don’t make it sound urgent
the ui doesnt help
hey vets wahts a brain dead light spam melee for wep spec?
the chainsword
highest dmg per swing with lights
ok maybe like one of the high but its pretty fast and cleaves nicely
New Chaxe also works, can stack both Headtaker and Slaughterer
whats the diff between 4 and 13?
13 has higher shred and strike down heavies
anything else?
13 has higher overall damage output, but less easy to use moveset all round
More reliant on combos an push attacks, 4 is just spam lights/heavies in any order
perfect thanks
Gotta love stabbing Stims as ogrtn
tiny needle has to be injected from giant arms instead of chest

Headtaker is probably the BiS for this, unless you're doing some crit thing in which case u might want shred
I don't have Shred, but I do have Heads
go that route then
swap crit to Flak
Specialists is a poor man's maniac but you'll still probably get better value out of it
alternatively you could change crit to Maniac and just not worry about muties ever again
what perks are best on the new chaxe?
if I go head slaught blessings
trying to get the most out of this
Bloodletter, Thrust for this one
Carapace is 100%
hmm tbh
you have a bit of a rock and a hard place choice here
ideally you want Flak/Cara/Bloodletter/Thrust
but here you are going to have to choose your specialisation
keep Unyielding and Headtaker for Bloodletter and Flak but give up the 1 shot Crusher breakpoint
or change both blessings to Thrust/Bloodletter and lose some damage vs Flak
what do i do with this 
Keep Full Bore (because hitting someone with the Special slug round procs it) and the Carapace Damage, swap out Scattershot and +Stamina with Maniac. That's what I'd do, at least.
Scattershot to No Respite, and Maniac
Carapace is useless on that weapon
do i lose breakpoints to one shot gunners and shotgunners here?
not with slug
aw
Atleast the stamina buff synergies with Deadshot
You know, No Respite on Agripinaa Shotty never occurred to me despite realizing I can knock Crushers on their ass and Bulwarks out of their shield stance with the Slug 
hmm tbh i agree with Dandy
stamina is good for Deadshot
and u wanna run deadshot with shotties
I made my statements with the assumption of not running Deadshot, but fair point on Carapace not being all that useful.
yeah im running deadshot
keep stam then
but do i still want to have stam with deadshot?
Then fair, the +Stamina helps 
in an ideal scenario
in perks
a okok
tbf you will probably be fine with Stam
you get so much value from No Respite and Fullbore
Agri shottie is a 1 tap beast
Flak + Maniac seems to be the default Perks of choice for weapons barring exceptions, from what I've seen.
Yes
yes but you can game stamina
But it's not like you shoot Agri Shotty slugs really fast, so you'll regen some Stamina between shots, I'd bet
you have 2 nodes in the tree that reduce stamina regen delay
you have duck and dive
you have weapon swap
and you have ping keystone
all that give you options to cheat
Worst comes to worst, you can always hip-fire the slugs. They're pretty accurate even then.
Really fun when I ran them on my Zealot
Yeah, just remember to aim the crosshair when hip-firing the slug sliiiightly to the left and up of the target's head.
That or I'm weird and somehow I thought those would land headshots better.
like whats the minimum i should aim for when rolling stats?
stab doesn't matter so much for shotgun
you wanna ammo, damage and SP high
mobility ideally above 51
ahh cool
stability ideally above 50
let me save this just a sec
the ammo on yours is fine btw
max shells you can get in an Agri is 13, with like 90ish reserve
I treat it like a Martini-Henry/Breechloading rifle when rocking the slugs 
And go with the regular buckshot when there's no time to load a slug.
if i run exec stance can i cover the lack of the other good perk to hit breakpoints?
Haven't tried it on my Vet, so I got no idea I'm afraid 😅
im going to pair this with dclaw 4 (as soon as i get a good one) so i can use claw to deal with ragers (no clue how its going to turn during mixed hordes tho) and have something that isnt a revolver to deal with specials and elite shooters
I hope one of the double barrel variants will be all slug
revolver became a clutch at this point
I've been thinking a lot about Executioner stance the past week
I think it's changed so much since its pre patch 13 times
that you have to approach it and its nodes differently
You only get two shots before needing to reload, but both hit like the Agri slug
like, i feel Counterfire is a trap in the current iteration
a wasted point you don't need
Yeah that would be my jam. WIth weapon specialist, oh boy
maybe its okay with certain guns but most of the time you are only taking it for refresh
not really, keeping executioner's up means u get higher accuracy, and more dmg
you really dont need it if you run tactical awareness i think, but it can be good in specific situations
u're doing it wrong if u take it just to refresh your shxt
its not a trap talent, its just people taking it when they arent specialized for it
one thing that i hate about exec stance is the zoom in the camera when i use this
its awful
debatable
i lose all my surrounding awareness
it does give some form of tunnel vision
could be skill issue from my part
the only time its worth going into stance is to hit breakpoints
if you can 1 shot enemies out of it
you don't need it
the only value it gives is refresh
and that is low value when swapping your weapon cancels stance
I run Counterfire with my Kantrael Infantry/Hellbore Lasguns
But that's partly because I'm focusing on anti-Shooter squad duty and it makes maintaining Exec Stance easier.
I don't use it on, say, Bolter or Plasma Gun or anything I don't intend to specifically gun down packs of Scab/Dreg shooters with
better to focus on cool down, using Exec stance to hit 1 shot breakpoints
and spending the point on something better
I find myself incapable of taking off Duck and Dive tbh
i dont see much guns using this to hit breakpoints, maybe some lasguns, and according to my friends, if u need exec to hit breakpoints for marksman, the gun itself isnt that good
that is literally it's only use
to help you shoot guys
if it doesn't help you shoot guys
then play a different ability
if i use it with a columnus or braced autogun, im not really hitting breakpoints
more dmg yes, less shots, but not exactly a one shot breakpoint
sure but I wouldn't run either of those with stance
well, depends on what my team has
infiltrate brauto is love, is life
what do you guys think of this? going to pair with agri shotgun and dclaw 4 and running survivalist + frag (i hate krak)
i'll run more voc than exe rn
too much utility with it
I run more Exe than VoC, but for the same reason
That and I like the clicking on heads, so.
plus teammates doodoo at making space for you
looks great. though that red node next to 15% vs elites would probably better as the stamina regen on melee swap node under weapon specialist
hard to find use with exec stance when the horde's on top of you
unless it does something inparticular?]
that;s really it isn't it
the meta has become so space focused
space is king right now
because enemy density is so high
dclaw bit weak
ahh sounds good. i dont really know tbh, im just assuming i would need it since i wont have the 25 maniac on shotty
tyty
i'd recommend one of the new shovels, chainsword, or powersword
I mean, in any randomized teamcomp it's better to have ways to make breathing room than relying on others to make that room for you
DClaw IV is sick imo, the parry one shots ragers with a headshot
Yo anyone try out the chain axes after the changes? are they still ass?
dont get me wrong, its fun, so u can still run it, but i think there's more practical ones
i heard it can be strong if paired with atk speed
no
has great horde clear. bad vs armoured elites but you have your gun for that
Shred/Rampage, it fucks, plus if you get boxed in by Crusher or summat you can just parry it an its a get out of jail free card
not much atk speed u can get from vet
maybe with this u can
weap specialist
rampage extra dmg might compensate enough, i havent tried it
the parry is the reason to run DClaw IV
maybe i should run rending node?
i see, never tried it, u might be right
to the former or the latter
Rampage wont proc on a single target, but parry is exceptional nonetheless
if you perfect parry it uses 2 stam to block crusher overhead
its amazing, really
which is crazy
Also bosses, you can parry the fuck outta those
oh yeah
i'd be bring it for hordeclear anyways
i can do much better in auric with revolver/shovel weap spec than plasma tag keystone
u can solo Chaos Spawn with DClaw
other choice is savage sweep/warth, which also doesnt proc vs single target
goddamn
I wouldnt run a cleave blessing on Catachan myself
time to pull my 0 parrying skills from dark souls
Cleave blessings are kinda dog at the moment with the exception being BM
why? you would be buffing your team as well
i am procrastinating so fucking hard right now
because its not synergetic with how you play with a plasma rifle
The time window for the Parry to activate is pretty generous. Like, a couple of seconds, IIRC.
That and you can cancel the Parry into an attack if need be.
Slackard, we need content goddamnit 😄
i'm slacking dude, i'm slacking
wait you can parry the one hit bonk from crushers too?????
yes
Hey. By the way, has that HUD guide-video of yours come out?
Its a saturday in all seriousness, cant be blamed on the weekend
and if you perfect parry it doesn't wipe your stamina
hot damn
i have it record, it's just really boring and I feel a bit ashamed putting it out since it's just a video of mod folders and then talking about menus
thats sick
Dclaws are gross on weapon specialist builds
why?
I dont know that there is any melee attack you cant parry in all honesty, though ive never tried mauler because chainaxe overhead is scary af
I was thinking about putting it up on my discord for followers of the channel
because you get 25% attack speed additional crit and rending on crit with a weapon that already swings fast af and has good horde clear
it just amplifies it
o wait sorry english isnt my language. you mean gross as actually good?
yes gross as in good
yeah 😄
it's honestly a top tier melee weapon
Veteran is spoiled for choice now
remember the days of Combat Axe vs Powersword?
ill run it with shotty bc i hear it has quick pull just like revolver and i couldnt bring myself to like vraks, too slow to me
with a few madlads on shovel/taxe
sadly not on psyker
Ye... those ADMs are nasty
not anymore
Psykers get silly cutlass tho
Yeah its still strong on Psyker, you just have to be more deliberate with them, they proc True Aim stupid often
and can go zoooooooooooom
oh absolutely, i did that one. but with the new shovel, i managed to one tap mutants and a few ragers with a crit special atk so im running that as it has better horde clear too
i mean its not really that silly
silly as in absurdly strong
ik
and it is absurdly strong
I'm not even running the blue folding Sapper Shovel with Weapon Specialist and I can chunk Muties on Auric Damnation with a fully-charged Heavy Special, it's great.
It really is.. it can one tap muties an wipe Crusher in like 2/3 hits
isnt there plenty of stuff that can do what the dueling sword can?
no
what am i looking to run on a dclaw 4 then? for both perks and blessings
Shred/Rampage, Maniac/Flak
not with the fludiity and ease that the dueling sword can
only thing dueling sword has going on rn is just highest dodge and as fast as knife
thamk
No contest the BiS blessings/perks
I think you are vastly underestimating just how stupidly strong the heavy attack is
Warning tho, its a pita to roll because it has loads of impact blessings
the special also staggers crushers and mutants
which one / anything usable? 😄
how does parry interact with multiple attacks?
parries everything inside the window
oh shit
new shovel special staggers and do massive dmg at the same time
thats crazy
yea but its clunky as shit
wdym?
the animation isnt as long as chainsword, its alot safer
you still get hit during parry?
no sorry was responding to shovel special comment
ahh okok np
The Folding Shovel special doesn't even take long to finish if the shovel gets stuck.
You can depending on the timing of incoming attacks, its not wise to stand in a rager squad and try to parry them all because they'll delete you for example, but its still a really safe weapon
Like, just a second at worst.
It parries everything including mutants and dogs running/jumping at you yep
I mean that shovel special is really good I'm just saying that the dueling sword heavy is 10x as fluid and easy to use
hammer can do it too, only reason it cant is the horde being in the way
All the monstrosities too
Ahhh, on the Psyker. Kk.
the shovel special atk is even faster if you dont heavy attack, which is better for the mk 7
as the light attack is a overhead
no we're comparing weapons and stuff, so classes dont matter
@woeful ibex yeah that never happened to me
unless u bring like, new ogryn shovels into the mix
those are absolutely disgusting 
I wish vet got the dueling sword it would go crazy on a revolver build
I noticed happened to me when internet is slow
thats the only time it bugs out
they already got a bunch of rending for free, their powersword's crazy enough as is
killing multiple crushers at a time
literally just by light swinging
yea but the dueling sword compliments revolver playstyle so much better than a power sword
I just use power sword for the horde clear
not with that lack of horde clear
you know what vets needs?
saltzpyre rapier and pistol
maybe if u bring shred grenades
the mk7 dsword actually has good horde clear
but u wont always have a grenade
the good one is mk4 tho no?
or at least the one with most heavy dmg
Laspistol x Chainsword can work
thats what i mean i think haven't been on psyker in a long while
whichever one has horizontal diagonal lights
you dont rev up but its a Lasgpistol shot
I use the demios and a revolver on my psyker if I'm going assail. The 2nd demios heavy also knocks crushers and Maulers over plus you get the activation attack which one shots muties and is really helpful with bulwarks
mk4
also nah, not really that good, u can build for it and make it mediocre i guess
its good
have rampage + shred, use push atk to proc rampage
its not great but it is good
I missed that part, my bad. 😅
or rampage + uncanny, that's probs better
takes too long
if u cant herd them u'll get backed into a corner
gotta keep pushin baby
it takes too long in comparison to a power sword or dclaw but thats the extreme
i mean, deimos would do better
if you just consistently headshot it clears well
even with the stabs being in the atk pattern
you can also drag the hitbox of the thrust heavy and pop like 4 heads at a time over and over
least that's how i feel using both of them
i dont even have the optimal deimos, my deimos has meme perks and blessings
flak maniac on power sword is the truth
this looks kinda terrible, u'd probs want sunder blessing?
Critical for maniac
but ehhh
WAT
How it is terrible
i mean no its not
God stats
u just cant go more offensively
Cycler
I can't even use a power sword until I get the fucking blessing lol
the stat's isnt the problem, and neither is cycler
but u'll be backdodging a lot
so if u get cornered u'll be in trouble fast
maybe slaughterer can help, not sure, didnt get the luxury to try yet
??? whati t has to do with weapon stats
and no, it works well
just push
im saying u cant cleave enough
lack of sunder
How bad is the grind to get power cycler 4?
i got lucky
is all i can say
also if im not mistaken, pushes will disable energize
not as unlucky as i've been with surge blessing on Void staff
must push atk
took me 120+ levels
Yeah it looks expensive to throw resources at it lol
Thank God I have my revolver blessings already
Or Harbyl just spits bs?
I have PC3 which is good enough for me for now
its not terrible cuz of modifier, its terrible cuz of the perks u got
sunder is recommended by my buddies, who i play auric damnation with
another PS i have
they say the cleave is not as much as it used to be, and with sunder u can cleave a lot better, staggering more and damaging more per swing
yea this one looks alot better desite the cleave targets being slightly lower
switch out weakspot for flak, wrath for power cycler
u can test both if u wish and decide which is better
I mean i can just strip sunder
What about shovels
new shovels, decimator + uncanny
Is it possible to get a 90%+?
dont strip sunder
what is good on thew new chainsword?
no, 80 max
80% max
dont strip sunder and put on the other powersword
like i said, i dont think the other powersword is terrible due to modifiers, i think its terrible due to the perks u're stuck with
or... what should I think about for this
and if u put sunder on the other blessing, that means u cant change the bad perk
rampage can stay, poxwalker dmg needs to change to maniac probs
rev change to wrath or shred
ooooh
either that, or u think that below 70% finesse is ass and leave it
pretty good
carapace dmg as well
if u can get brittle blessing it'd be perfect
That's what I'm using currently with the same blessings. Works great for damn and if I need to one shot a mutie, I can with it. The heavy cleaves are totally good.
Requisition guy has good things so often
way more often than Milky
So, which shovel does what?
Melk is crap
Standard shovel seems to be most straighforward, lights for single targets, heavy for crowds
mk7
light has a mix or crowd and single, heavy for crowd, very strong special for single too
mk3 a bit weirder, might need to mix up your atk patterns, but also has strong special for single target
Thanks a lot
They both seem to hav e same specials though?
speaking of milky
that's what i bought from him a few days ago
use the heavy special atk
mk3 is a bit faster when pulling out compared to mk7
... that is what i said
well yeah
but insignificantly
mk3 easier overhead
some people might decide base on that small thing so yea
thrust helps with funny special oneshots
plus u use heavy for crowds so its fine
always 20% additional power
both perks are pretty good
+60%*
if u dont charge all the way, it'd still be 20% at least, is what i meant
What about second blessing
personally i wont charge to full when in a horde
decimator can be kept
or u can get uncanny to help with crushers and maulers
only t2 though
well if u ever get a t4 u can put it on then
anyways, decimator, uncanny, skullcrusher, decent options
