Imperium is a hyper Communist state, if your wealth gets over 25M ordos, tax is 100%

which is why you can never get above 25M ordos

Key word relatively

Frankly it's insane that you can't even live off 30 dollars an hour in Cali

Well yeah

Its been like that for a while

Apartments hit, the issue being many of us aren't gonna be able to afford a home in our lifetime

but it's also a neccessity asset, unless you have multiple houses, the single house you own isn't exactly an "investment", not like you can just sell and move out on a dime.

#

in which case that's fair KEKW_ogryn

#

I came from a third world country though so can't imagine leaving the US for any place else.

Well to be fair in the US many machines are already in imperial, so better just use them than go around changing all the machining equipment

#

Blehh

celest vine

RTUs are never in metric

crude ermine

I don't like the US's temperature thingy whatever you call it

forest blaze
#

I have a background in woodworking/luthiery/guitar building and I’ve spent enough time measuring fine units in inches that I can see 1/32nd of an inch mistake from across the room but couldn’t tell you what that is in mm

celest vine

Gas line isnt

serene sage
#

which weapon would you considered an SMG in the game?

blazing veldt
#

I used to play war thunder and I got genuinely pissed when people would use metric in air rb

serene sage
#

Columnus is not an smg right?

it's more of a rifle?

celest vine

autopistol with stock from weapon customization

that's the only right answer

agrippina will chug out a few shots and half the shotgunner squad is flat on their ass, the other half dead

graia just feels like ive blasted them with pellets

junior grail
#

Tickled to not-death

atomic zephyr
#

there has to be something im missing lol

junior grail
#

Graia should go Achlys route and not be so slowed down while bracing

wanton dawn
#

I used graia once i think. I though it was hot crap and never used it again

atomic zephyr
#

agri makes me feel like rambo

wanton dawn
#

Just a way worse agri basically

atomic zephyr
#

i thought the fire rate on brace increase would be nice but its not accurate enough to make it pay off

wanton dawn
#

I did not think. I was just amazed at having like, 50% less dps whatthefuck_heresy

atomic zephyr

lmao true

Bruh anything even breaking 200k is a lot for the majority of people. I only bought a decent townhome for 250k. Wish I bought pre-covid but I just got a new job at that time and didn't know if the company would've squeezed down

Mauler, gunned down in the psykarium

atomic zephyr

celest vine

its not like its any more ammo efficient either, both guns take around the same % of the mag to down the mauler

that means it kills things

dont let players tell you you need crazy stat weapons to win

piece of shit gun lmao

Ppl keep saying that recon are worse gun. I think the worse is prob a graia

atomic zephyr
#

good idea ill test the dps against a recon

celest vine
#

Its automatically better

atomic zephyr
wanton dawn
#

Graia is just a straight up worse agri

There is literally no niche, no reason to use it

ill keep it in the back pocket in case it gets buffed

holding onto it cause it's got a good roll and blessings

it just doesnt have the damage to stand up

Recon periodically untrashes

#

Do braced auto have bullet magnetism like infantry autos?

atomic zephyr
#

probably a little

#

they dotn really need it

celest vine

Infantry autoguns its downright comical

wanton dawn

I find recon to be so boring that i dont bother unless so overpowered that they gey hotfixed

atomic zephyr
#

y'know what im gonna make a recon las build for fun

celest vine

Its intense

I mean they still "work". It's not like recons are unusable

I'm gonna say it

wanton dawn

Reconsider are unuseable

Ttk is too high

atomic zephyr
#

yeah just messing around in the psykanium, they seem pretty ok

midnight mortar
#

Just spawn yourself 4 ragers, see how long it takes you to kill them. Then spawn 4 mutants.

terse idol
#

Just spawn 1 mutant and kill him without headshots

#

And then take a columnus

#

And kill it without headshots

tiny summit
#

There are some in the discord who think where recons are, all guns should be brought to its level because all else is too overpowered

atomic zephyr
#

counterpoint: laser famas

tiny summit
#

Yea. Pew Pew fun

wanton dawn

I just think it is a boring weapon that only has dps going for it

terse idol

I mean to be fair

midnight mortar

What does the columnus have going for it besides pure damage

midnight mortar

I think many of our indicators are

The regular Las sold me,
The recon Las reminded me of dawn of War 2

I even played it

It's one thing the agri revolver wins over the zarona

terse idol

But now it's just bad

crude ermine
#

That and ig cool factor

terse idol

And you cant even sustain ammo that well

celest vine

Mk3 shovel one shotting crushers will never not be funny

Agri revolver boss killer is a gimmick though whatthefuck_heresy

iron marten
#

Still need to build an agri revo

placid portal
#

Yeehaw cannon do be funny fanning

iron marten
#

but I'm too used to just one tapping everything with a zarona revo

atomic zephyr
#

ok i swapped from my recon las to my infantry 1a just to test and the comparison isnt even funny

#

sorry recon las you're going back in the drawer

terse idol
#

This is why I will say, I won't burn folks who like using it that's fine

wanton dawn
#

It is still a committed investment towards ult with exec stance on a gun weak at long range

terse idol

but gosh darn I hope people know how bad it is

tiny summit

It's just so underwhelming to your options

i really really really want to love recon

Okay zealot with wound build pets go

crude ermine

Oh you're talking about the others

It was all a dream

I feel bad for people who run multiple wounds with green stim kekdoge

i have t4 headhunter

I dont think its very good

celest vine

Triggering infernus often

tiny summit

It's why he said "usable"

atomic zephyr

...its no DA

frank ether

why stack infernus like a dingus when you can just one shot it with deadly accurate

celest vine

Sprint for flak

tiny summit

Keep the sprint efficiency!

atomic zephyr

should i replace infernus with deadly accurate or swap a perk?

LOCK THE SPRINT

how much damage infernus adds

I guess infernus is the low skill blessing

since you dont need a headshot

to benefit

#

just crit

celest vine

oh i guess i had deadly accurate

#

wait

frank ether

I'm thinking I'd still prefer infernus on MG4 not on MGla

i couldve SWORN...

celest vine

Why I like the 12 slightly more

frank ether

but you know

#

sprint is kinda meme

good stats for chainsword or no? (i dont use the chainswords normally)

I think I'd just accept my fate

and run infernus

They're all at roughly the same level.

I've used the 12 after all the changes and it's fine.

#

flak or maniac

atomic zephyr
frank ether
#

Its not even infernus 4 lmao hadron just had to do you like this

midnight mortar
#

It's just the Helbores mk1 and 2 do its job better with better anti-rager options built in.

celest vine
#

The MG1A needs a crit headshot to one hit gunners

midnight mortar
#

If you're bodyshotting though, the IV and Ia will of course outdps the XII.

celest vine
#

And is at minimum a 4 shot headshot to reapers

terse idol
#

Not bad

celest vine
#

Usually 5

frank ether
#

helbores just better designed weapon overall

celest vine
#

MG12 is a 2 shot consistently

frank ether
#

infantry lasguns are a little confused

atomic zephyr
#

if i could rename weapons (cant run the mod) id name this 'fuck you hadron'

celest vine
#

And 1 hit gunners consistently

midnight mortar
#

The real confused family are the Accatran recons.

celest vine
#

And with rager nerf you can one hit headshot ragers often

frank ether
#

their niche kinda sucks

midnight mortar
#

Those ones have no niche.

#

You're not wrong.

#

It's a niche few asked for.

frank ether
#

recons are just terrible

#

the problem I have with infantry las is

#

they are built like precision guns

#

have deadly accurate

#

and they kinda suck at killing big things

#

If they had less visual recoil maybe

celest vine
#

They exist to kill anything that isnt a boss

frank ether
#

or mauler

#

or crusher

atomic zephyr
#

just bodyshot the mauler

celest vine
#

You have a melee for crushers

#

And grenades for bosses

frank ether
#

build a sharpshooter lasgun build

celest vine
#

Your weapons dont need to one hit rvery enemy

frank ether
#

melee the crusher

#

niche is the right world here

celest vine
#

Powersword them up close

junior grail
#

Bold to assume a Crusher is always alone

celest vine

If I want to suffer is a valid niche

then infant las is great

Why my build works well

frank ether
#

sunder is meh

vapid rock
#

idk if this is a dumb question but is bolter viable?

versed merlin
#

yes

vapid rock
#

cool

junior grail
#

It is, meta no, viable yes

vapid rock
#

eh idk about meta

#

as long as im not being a detriment to my team with it

wanton dawn
#

Sunder is as "meh" as bm

#

That is a pretty high bar

frank ether
#

sunder means no bm

junior grail
wanton dawn
#

Bm means no sunder

terse idol
#

Bolter is viable

hollow ibex
terse idol
#

Not like meta, but its better than the recon

#

And thats all we can ask for

#

😌

iron marten
#

bolter is fun to use, even in auric damnation, and that's what matters

vapid rock
#

true...

#

i get to feel like one of them space marine folk

hollow ibex
#

i hate the sway and draw time

#

it's just so much extra work compared to a point and click adventure like plasma

junior grail
#

Those gosh darn Astartes fellers are pretty neat

vapid rock
#

yeah

#

too bad GW neglects them a ton

frank ether
#

sunder cant even cleave through poxwalkers

wanton dawn
#

Wat

iron marten
#

Wat

frank ether
#

have enough of them and you're just spamming attacks

#

whereas BM would melt like butter

junior grail
#

Hope next update gives necessary buffs

#

Some weapons need them to keep up

wanton dawn
#

Sunder niche is for elite. Not horde. It is better for twins for instance

frank ether
#

can you like

#

get to meat grinder

#

line up 4-5 trash

#

cleave with sunder

#

2 dead

#

3 survives

wanton dawn
#

Thats like saying that charging plasma is better cuz you cleave 14 mauler instead of 6

frank ether
#

bm cleaves them all clean in a single hit

wanton dawn
#

Active for flavor

#

Then remind me the last time you got killed by poxwalker

terse idol
wanton dawn
#

Bm is good, but pointing out that it is better than sunder at killing horde is like saying that psyker is better at stunning horde than zealot

graceful glen
#

sometimes the armory be hittin

frank ether
#

why would I build around melee killing ragers and crushers

#

on a sharpshooter vet

#

If I wanted to go for that I'd go for VoC melee

limpid hull
wanton dawn
#

Cuz mixed horde are a danger and horde of trash are not

limpid hull
#

especially on higher difficulties

frank ether
#

bm does deal with it

limpid hull
#

and peopole dont kill specials, so whileyou kill specials they run from ragers

iron marten
#

I use BM on my Laspistol Vet, mainly just to kill crushers with ease. Mixed Hordes I usually just kite them with a laspistol :p

limpid hull
#

i.e melee

frank ether
#

Its the 150 chaff next to your face that prevents you from shooting thats the problem

wanton dawn
#

And while bm kill faster, it does not stagger more

frank ether
#

and good luck clearing that if you're killing like 3 per swing

wanton dawn
#

Than sunder

frank ether
#

yes

#

cause they die

wanton dawn
#

Again: when was the lzst time you got killed by poxwalker ?

#

This discussion is pointless anyway

atomic zephyr
#

take off VoC for the first time in three rounds
immediately paired with people who apparently have zero add clear potential

wanton dawn
#

Sunder is not used to improve handling against lesser horde

frank ether
#

yes this is a pointless discussion

wanton dawn
#

As for me, i have video of handling 30 ragers with ps so i do have some experience on threat assessment

#

And i did the horde test on poxwalker. Bm is not faster

#

Bm is faster on bruiser

#

100 poxwalkee is around 10 to 12s on both blessing with my setup

#

Granted, was few patch ago

#

Sunder is specifically used against (flak) rager, mauler, crusher horde, bulwark

frank ether
#

I have tested it this patch

#

better roll on sunder

#

just not cleaving

#

single BM hit rolls like 5 heads

#

sunder needs multiple hits for the same result

wanton dawn
#
  • sigh *
snow pendant
#

i like to chime in

#

the solution would be grenades

#

if they dont die use more grenades

wanton dawn
snow pendant
#

i do, and thats good enough for me

#

I made a grenade build with all grenade perks and it is super fun

#

Mince meats everything

quasi socket
#

done with mesc! finally!

#

did it on twins, premade group

forest blaze
#

Idk. I typically melee kill crushers and bulwarks to save ammo with plasma.

#

Save ammo for dudes that don’t take 9+ ammo to kill

wanton dawn
placid portal
#

Bulwarks kinda annoying so warrents plasma to kill em and not have them cause teammates to hit their "shield" from behind

wanton dawn
#

One could say BM looks better. Ofc the test condition favor BM: enemies are all on the same spot, I only hit weakspot and the build allows bm to consistently OS

#

I could do a no talent comparison but what is the point ?

forest blaze
versed merlin
#

jesus christ

#

lvl 1034

#

how much time does that take

wanton dawn
#

Oh also sorry, sunder took 11 hit instead of bm 10 on this test. Boh freaking boh

frozen meadow
#

Damn I thought I played this game alot at lvl 90

wanton dawn
#

it is about 1k hours, but i only play vet

#

i have about 50 lvl on other class

#

combined

versed merlin
#

man im sitting here almost 300 hours in and my vet isnt even lvl 30 yet

#

so, what is the difference between sunder and bm? and when does one shines better than the other?

#

sunder seems to cleave more than bm

frozen meadow
#

Im at 200hrs. I probably don't lvl up much because I keep failing auric damnations lol

wanton dawn
versed merlin
#

but bm gives dmg on weakspot peepoThink

wanton dawn
#

Sure, but sunder can cleave through armor

#

including bulwark and carapace

#

when you factor the fact that PS light hit stagger almost everything, hitting more target means more stagger

#

it is especially relevant against rager

versed merlin
#

hmm interesting

midnight mortar
#

Of all the hardmode attempts at which I thought I'd finally kill the Twins, I didn't expect it to be with a relic zealot.

#

I'm pleasantly surprised.

versed merlin
#

mine was in a pug and there was this ogryn lvl 70 or something that melted both bosses shields with that submachine gun of theirs

wanton dawn
#

I could add a bulwark as well

midnight mortar
versed merlin
# wanton dawn no dodge example

but now that i think about it, if you have a mixed horde, bm would carry the dmg from the first target you hit to all the others right? so if i one shot an enemy, that damage will also apply to the next target that could be a carapace enemy, so that would be better, no? at least thats how i understand how bm works

midnight mortar
#

Maybe he knew what he was doing with the eviscerator.

midnight mortar
#

It just has to hit their weakspot.

#

Then BM ensures that your full damage application is applied to the next target.

terse idol
wanton dawn
versed merlin
#

oh new evis can just get 100% cdr with backstab node very easily during hordes

#

oh yeah

versed merlin
midnight mortar
#

Sunder splits your damage further across more targets, but you're dealing less damage overall.

wanton dawn
#

Not offensively

#

Because you have more consistent stagger

versed merlin
#

hmm does bm gives any new breakpoints for psword?

#

bc if not, then sunder could literally be better

midnight mortar
versed merlin
#

ahhh yeah theres that too

midnight mortar
#

You can only do that with BM as one of the blessings and PC at least tier 3 as the other.

wanton dawn
#

For instance, if you test bm against flak rager when they are standing still, bm and sunder both looks as good as one another

#

In practice though, bm will only hit 2 flak rager at a time

#

meaning you can only stagger 2, which can obviously be a problem

wanton dawn
midnight mortar
#

It kills them faster, which I think would be the priority with a psword. Most people aren't looking at the psword for defensive play. If they wanted that, they'd opt for a shovel.

wanton dawn
versed merlin
#

damn

midnight mortar
#

Let me see if I have weapons to test that with.

versed merlin
#

that makes it hard to choose between the 2 really

trim steppe
#

Ooh fellahs, looky what Brunt is selling. I'm gonna roll it

wanton dawn
#

am gonna make a vid against 5 flak

versed merlin
#

might as well give up power cycle and take both bm and sunder whatthefuck_heresy

midnight mortar
#

Don't be a fool.

versed merlin
#

jk

trim steppe
#

hot diggity

versed merlin
#

i think you could 1 to 2 tap crushers with that thing

#

if you can cosplay ogryn doing thrust heavies

trim steppe
#

Whats the shovel meta looking like rn?

wanton dawn
#

do keep in mind that again, the test tend to favor bm cuz i only hit weakspot

versed merlin
#

doesnt seem like its favoring bm tbh

wanton dawn
#

I have one with a fat crit on the bm side whatthefuck_heresy

versed merlin
#

theres no comparison against sunder cleave in that clip

wanton dawn
#

I discovered sunder when trying to do a me vs 30 flak rager video

#

Cuz i could not proc rampage

midnight mortar
#

Ok 30 flak ragers is a bit excessive.

wanton dawn
#

because flak rager are 2 target max

midnight mortar
#

Even in aurics they don't throw that many at you all at once.

quasi socket
#

is there a prefered build with plasma? running weapon master right now

versed merlin
#

weapon specialist only benefits the first shot you do

terse idol
#

😌

midnight mortar
# versed merlin doesnt seem like its favoring bm tbh

Personally, I currently still prefer BM if only because it enables me to cut through more bruisers to then apply the most damage I can to things that are actually a threat (anything large enough to stop my cleave).

#

Because cutting down the chaff to then have room to push attack/heavy or light the important survivors is what I prefer doing with the psword.

#

But I'm also assuming my teammates won't necessarily be able to kill what I'm fighting at that moment. So I prefer not staggering and leaving them alive longer.

versed merlin
#

i wouldnt be able to tell which one is better by just looking at their performance and not feeling them myself

midnight mortar
#

With ragers I'm often kiting them backwards anyhow, so no more than 2 or 3 are engaging in an attack animation at any one time.

wanton dawn
versed merlin
#

thats something i love in fatshark since vermintide 2, theres not always the better option, but the one that appeals you more

midnight mortar
#

🫡 🪦 I think of you every day.

#

Especially now against the Twins.

wanton dawn
#

And probably easier to use

#

In fact, I think sunder is better than bm against twins specifically

midnight mortar
#

If only because their goddamn shield auras protect ragers inside them.

versed merlin
#

not just that, but theres often more elite packs than lesser enemies around

low oar
#

Imagine if the infinite smite glitch was still around now for the twins

#

Or release relic where it just stunned bosses on each pulse

versed merlin
#

imagine if recons were relevant now for the twins

#

could be proccing those brittleness on everybody

#

but that cant be us

wanton dawn
#

I cannot beat 30 ragers reliably anymore cuz we lost stun immunity since then KEKW_ogryn

#

I think 10 is a more realistic number

#

maybe a bit more if i use VoC

versed merlin
#

yeah or 5 with a few maulers and crushers in

quasi socket
wanton dawn
#

5 is easy

#

adding mauler or crusher won't make a difference here

#

Even a bulwark

versed merlin
# quasi socket mind sendin a tree my way so i can dabble?

im not a reliable source for information, since im still a beginner here as well, but this is the most popular vet build in gameslantern. i would change a few things myself, like taking off the competitive urge as its prob an overkill and would only help with saving some ammo to kill crushers and maulers maybe.

midnight mortar

It is.

#

Mostly in the ease of use category, and then some specific combos.

#

Allows you to achieve your optimal TTKs.

wanton dawn
#

I did fail miserably on the previous try cuz i got stuck on boxes KEKW_ogryn

limber egret
#

thoughts on this?

#

i know the infested enemy perk is garbage

#

but i was thinking of replacing wrath with rampage or slaughter

midnight mortar
#

BM or Sunder.

versed merlin
quasi socket
limber egret
#

since extra damage and this is meant to be my horde clearing weapon

midnight mortar
#

Rampage and Slaughterer are lower sidegrades.

versed merlin
midnight mortar
limber egret
#

oh is that why?

wanton dawn
#

BM gives you up to 4 first target damage

flat furnace
#

is sustained fire good on this thing? wanting to defeat the twins on hard

limber egret
#

i do have a tier 3 BM i can take from another power sword i can take and put it on my current power sword

versed merlin
limber egret
#

so just do that instead?

flat furnace
versed merlin
#

dumdum and deathspitter for example

crude fiber
wanton dawn
crude fiber
#

MAYBE if the make it proc every 3rd and 4th shots but even then pretty meh

versed merlin
#

yeah like bulwarks are so painful to deal with when you have more dangerous threats. just makes everything annoying

flat furnace
versed merlin
#

deathspitter could be replaced with something else though not sure what

limber egret
#

hey so BM says weakspot hit mass ignores hit mass

versed merlin
#

melee gal takes more damage from ranged attacks, so you just kite her and keep shotting. you'll have dumdum up and thats 25~30% damage on all your shots

limber egret
#

what does it do exactly?

wanton dawn
limber egret
#

oh thats what it does?

flat furnace
#

i heard it's pretty good

frank ether
terse idol
#

Oh yeah it's either Death spitter or FF

#

But I don't know the limitations

versed merlin
terse idol
#

Oh

flat furnace
#

i was aiming to have both on my gun lol

wanton dawn
#

yeah

terse idol
#

It's Power Vs Close range damage

terse idol
#

It's vallue

versed merlin
#

but for twins, if you're not dealing with the elites that spawns on you, dumdum is a must, the other one could be anything ig

terse idol
#

helps you make the first kill on either FF or Deathspitter

wanton dawn
#

Sometimes I feel like I am the only sunder stan here Guarded

frank ether
#

isnt dumdum generally a must

versed merlin
#

yeah dumdum is the more consistent as it doesnt need you to kill something to get stacks

frank ether
#

well its not like you HAVE TO have dumdum

versed merlin
#

the others need you to kill something to get a buff out of it

frank ether
#

but its pretty much free damage to have it

flat furnace
#

I wonder what "power" means
it is more dmg?

versed merlin
#

dmg cleave and stagger

wanton dawn
frank ether
#

power is more everything

#

power gud

versed merlin
#

5% power is 5% dmg, 5 cleave and 5 stagger

wanton dawn
#

unless impact means something else, idk

flat furnace
#

fuck really? so i might as well have that and stop wasting resources to get fire frenzy

versed merlin
#

thats a very good idea honestly

wanton dawn
#

so FS names are annoyiing

versed merlin
#

take stealth and just go free real state shooting them in the backs

frank ether
#

dumdum-raking on infil vet with knife

#

thats how a friend did it

midnight mortar
#

Impact is stagger, yes. It's just FS defines stagger as a state whereas impact is the stat that applies it.

wanton dawn
#

Raking fire found its place against twins ? Nice

frank ether
#

I mean its gonna depend on your team a lot obv

flat furnace
#

frick i wish i could just transform diamantine into plasteel

versed merlin
#

dont we all

frank ether
#

but raking gud

#

raking was always good

#

just situational

wanton dawn
versed merlin
#

jesus, where can i find that

wanton dawn
#

Lemme guess. 30 min zealot

frank ether
#

like %40 something damage on 180 degree angle

#

thats unsuprising

#

if any build could do it

#

its gonna be a stealth one

#

wait

#

rly?

#

gapcloser zealot

#

whuh

#

thats interesting

limber egret
#

i had a game as 4 ogryns

frank ether
#

I mean its quite strong

limber egret
#

against the twins

versed merlin
#

lmao

#

what a chad

frank ether
#

thought so

#

if you're handling aggro from both twins

#

and whatever else spawns

limber egret
#

also thoughts on this?

wanton dawn
#

It is more of a build showcast video at this point nah ?

frank ether
#

kinda

#

feel like

#

raking-dumdum ciag is ideal for shield dmg on melee twin

#

if an ogy is pulling it away

wanton dawn
#

where the solo hm twins vidjo btw ?

frank ether
#

obv not in a solo context

#

but I'd like to see a video of it

serene sage
# limber egret

it's not bad, usable while looking for something even better, try to find Surgical 4 over Pinning Fire

#

or at least Pinning fire at higher level

limber egret
#

oh i actually didnt want surgical

#

for what im going for

#

my build currently allows me to one magazine bosses

oh then nothing else, really, I think maniac would let you mag dump ragers better

if im hitting weakspot and volly fire on

i have 18 plasma guns total

frank ether
#

honestly I'm not even mad about deadshot being what it is

#

I'd be a lot happier if sharpshooter keystone wasnt dogshit

wanton dawn
#

If I ever get bored at some point I might simply switch game altogether

#

idk

frank ether
#

I dont play other classes enough so I want to say marksman focus may be the single worst keystone in the entire game

#

but who knows

#

maybe there is a worse one that I'm overrating

serene bough
#

Its pretty bad

frank ether
#

Its not just the whole stand still thing

#

nono

#

thats not the only problem with mf

serene bough
#

It doesn't do anything meaningful

frank ether
#

the rending is RANGED ONLY and 10 STACKS UP

#

the toughness regen is trash

trim steppe
#

Yeah the lucky bullet keystone for ogryn is good for a single weapon, everything else its terrible

frank ether
#

camo thing locks the 15 stacks one

serene sage
#

it is nice but I don't feel like toughness was a problem when shooting vs other ranged enemies?

#

like as vet I just stand and shoot

frank ether
#

and there is no stamina replenishment option for mf

limber egret
#

my main veteran talent build doesnt use any keystones

frank ether
#

the sharpshooter keystone DOESNT SYNERGIZE WITH DEADSHOT

wanton dawn
#

ROFL, ogryn spending 3 points to get 8% ranged crit

#

oh shit

#

okay then it's busted KEKW_ogryn

frank ether
#

dogwater

#

its like in a league of its own

limber egret
#

marksmen focuse seem like would be better if walking did not remove stacks

frank ether
#

At least

versed merlin
frank ether
#

they put all the relevant stuff up in the left tree

#

so you can just ignore it

#

which seems to be dev intention

#

take your deadshot/precision

#

and dont look down

#

you do if you want to benefit from rending

serene sage
#

i get max stacks with camo after like 2s

wanton dawn
serene sage
#

it's not bad to get stacks, but i don't feel like it alters my playstyle

#

i just play like normal

frank ether
#

focus mark is also not bad if you just want a tiny benefit

serene sage
#

at least with ping and swap keystone

serene bough
#

Yeah the stacks don't do anything

serene sage
#

I have to think

frank ether
#

it also gives your entire team those same buffs btw

#

toughness

#

stamina

#

#

extra boss damage
