Marksman Focus v good

terse idol
#

Its really good

lusty jetty
#

The whole "bUt yOu nEeD tO mOvE" thing is overrated

half rose
#

"stand still and never move build" "tagging a single enemy once every 30 seconds build" yeah bro ill pass lmao

terse idol
#

Focus is fine

slow garden
#

Krak grenades too useful, I always dump my extra points into nade improvements

terse idol
#

Because!

slow garden
#

I'd rather have krak nades than either keystone myself

trim steppe
#

They are all good in the right circumstances but yeah, quite underwhelming compared to other class keystones which fundamentally change the way you'll play the build

terse idol
#

You shouldn't want to stand still like a turret anyways

lusty jetty
#

Marksman Focus stacks build and stay up fast

#

The whole "don't move" thing is ridiculous and overplayed

inland orchid
terse idol
#

I think marksmens focus is harder to pull off because you feel obligated to get the 10 stacks but play like you normally play exec stance

cinder wing
#

what are our best guns rn?

slow garden
#

Yes please

terse idol
#

And you'll make value

lusty jetty
#

You get 10 stacks so so so fast without even trying

slow garden
#

Give me a pure krak build and I will crack out on krak

lusty jetty
#

Every single engagement

terse idol
#

Don't over think marksmens focus

lusty jetty
#

Literally don't think about move/don't move

#

Just move as you would

#

You get and keep stacks

slow garden
#

Kraks save runs for me, more important than stacks impo

#

Focus will alas never compare to being able to reactively kill an entire wave of flak and ogryn

#

Krak is king

inland orchid
trim steppe
#

Yeah I agree jarude, the focus on movement as a play style is wrong. Just ignore it and shoot heads, the mechanic will play out as it wants to but it's very easy to keep a full stack while running around like a madman

lusty jetty
#

Like... a single group of specialists means max stacks in one second

lost lake
#

Anyone got a good lasgun build? I've been using plasma a lot and it seems my lasguns aren't doing enough dmg to keep up

slow garden
#

Some lasguns do, Helbore is good

#

Use the bayonet on it though

#

Otherwise you will spend so much time swapping weapons that running the thing becomes pointless

trim steppe
slow garden
#

Recons kinda bad imo

#

Bad ttk

#

Just needs a damage buff really

#

Everything else on the gun is fine

torn inlet
#

They had one moment then got nerfed hard

copper pine
#

Yeah, marksman focus is very strong, people just lose their minds when they read you lose stacks and write it off

lusty jetty
#

Yes

copper pine
#

It's a very strong keystone

slow garden
#

I may try focus with like, columnus or something someday

lost lake
#

Funnily enough my recent lasgun build was recon and it was decent enough but I wanted to see what was the refined build in this meta

lusty jetty
#

Like... it needs the movement debuff to keep it balanced

#

Otherwise too OP

slow garden
#

My current weapons I dont see the value though, versus getting all my krak grenade bonuses

#

krak saves lives

trim steppe
terse idol
#

Recon is poopy

#

Won't stop anyone from playing recon but recon bad

tall torrent
copper pine
#

The las pistols are real strong as well

trim steppe
tall torrent
#

Idk who’s favouring the mk3 helbore, most people I see prefer mk1 and mk2

slow garden
#

Forget which it is, I like the higher damage one with the big bayonet

#

God its hard to get out of the habit of switching to melee though

tall torrent
trim steppe
#

That's just according to what I read on here 🤷‍♂️

tall torrent
#

Mk1 and mk2 are literally “gun on a spear”

modest sapphire
#

for the "hit 5 enemies with frag without it bouncing", does it need to be the unupgraded one?

slow garden
#

Isn't there a higher damage variant between the 1 and 2?

#

That one

tall torrent
tall torrent
slow garden
#

It's the Helbore 1 then

#

I have a strong preference to guns that one and done

modest sapphire

#

Just 5 total enemies

Blast hit 5 enemies

slow garden
#

Throw it at long range

sinful jacinth
#

Is the mk7 shovel any good?

midnight totem
#

It's good

half rose
#

is the mk3 shovel any good

midnight totem
#

Better horde on its heavies

copper pine
midnight totem
#

Hitting the head is a bit more difficult on its alt attack

#

But you'll get used to it

sinful jacinth
#

Might as well give it a go then. Was a decent shovel in the shops.

modest sapphire
tall torrent
# slow garden I have a strong preference to guns that one and done

Mk1 can one headshot both flamers without crits at 13m+, and could one tap scab ragers in the head

Mk2 has faster reload, lower ammo consumption, better kill time against mauler & crusher, the same one headshot kill power vs both gunners & shotgunners, and shoots faster

modest sapphire
tall torrent
#

Mk2 can still 1 tap both flamers in the head but needs surgical to build crit chance, or you can bayonet them in the head for guaranteed 1 hit kill

copper pine
modest sapphire
#

cool thanks for the tips yall

trim steppe
#

Just throw it high above a distant horde and let it explode over their heads, done ez

serene sage
#

Honestly this probably it KEKW_ogryn

terse idol
#

Its the issue that alot of balance discussion is based around... the strongest weapons
Infantry Las guns are perfectly acceptable

lusty jetty
#

all headhunters are great in close

#

ez hedshots

terse idol
#

Cause when you reach extraction

#

Throw grenades onto hordes on the platform

#

But you gotta look up

modest sapphire
#

also... why did a beast of nurgle spawn 5 seconds in on a t2? the director must take player level into account

idle dirge
#

What mission was it?

modest sapphire
trim steppe
#

This was higher difficulty but one time I had 6 daemonhost spawns. Director really wanted us dead

is there anything in game that is not too strong, not too weak?

probably the Kantrael infrantry las series?

if i wanted to run a boltgun what blessings would i aim for?

#

surgical pinning fire?

do you like ADSing or hipfire more?

then yeah surgical pinning fire

and whatever you build, take Determined

atomic zephyr

of course lol

serene sage
terse idol
#

The exceptions we see
Columnus
Revolver
Pgun

serene sage
#

yeah

#

nerf them

#

i honestly think Columnus is okay

#

because it lacks the pinpoint accuracy

idle dirge
#

Give the revolver a 1 bullet capacity

serene sage
#

and buff back hand canon

terse idol
idle swallow
serene sage
#

plasma balance can be balnced by significantly increase the rate at which heat accumulates

#

so you need to vent a lot more

#

as long as damage isn't touched, most people wouldn't care

#

utility nerfs are elusive and effective

#

revolver isn't vet exclusive but okay

#

plasma is overtuned

#

whether you want to admit it or not

#

it's in 80+ of my games

terse idol
#

I mean

#

I think the strongest weapons from Vets arsenal need to be nerfed so other things can shine

#

Vet is pretttyyy gooood rn

serene sage
#

and im not even asking for damage nerfs

#

damage should def be the same, they feel good

#

as they should

#

but they should take a little more efforts in playing

#

that's all

ebon geyser
#

It's The anti-special anti-armor weapon

idle swallow
#

I feel like they'll end up nerfing plasma with more ammo used per shot or reduced uncharged shot damage

ebon geyser
#

There's a reason it's there

terse idol
#

Well its anti everything

serene sage
ebon geyser
#

(that being said I agree with the guy who said the thing could be balanced better by making the overheat mechanic more obvious)

#

also t. Agripinaa MkIX enjoyer

idle dirge
#

Even if plasma could oneshot both twins I just can’t bring myself to use it, personally feels awful to use. I need big blasty shooty noises pain

wanton dawn
#

Plasma should have worse uncharge and better charge

serene sage
#

I mean uping the heat per shot isn't exactly that bad of a nerf, it's just a reminder that hey slow down, this is a plasma gun
plasma mag is literally half the reserve, you don't need to reload with it, let the venting mechanic be the "reload"

#

you can't blow up left clicking anyway

ebon geyser
#

Also the absolute psychosis I feel while constantly redlining the plasma gun while blasting Heaven Pierce Her is sublime

serene sage
#

yeah plasma increased cleave feels great

tall torrent
serene sage
#

probably one of the better balancing thing they have done

tall torrent
#

the 3 shotguns

serene sage
#

they are at like A- for me

ebon geyser
#

Change my mind

tall torrent
wanton dawn
#

Give bonus rending to exec stance and make it improve thoughness regen. Should help lot of "subpar" weapon

serene sage
#

agri?

tall torrent
serene sage
#

you can 4 shot crushers I think, but all special slug so ttk is atrocious, but at least you can

ebon geyser
#

I mean I think it's easier to bleed out crushers than wasting ammo on them

tall torrent
#

If I'm using shotgun I'm using it as a way to compliment knife or chainaxe

ebon geyser
#

But then I'm an idiot

wet crest
#

is this good?

serene sage
tall torrent
ebon geyser
wet crest
#

chainsword not bad for a vet right

tall torrent
#

least amount of shots needed to kill all

#

lawbringer is good too

#

agripinaa is better single target one after another

terse idol
#

Okay to be fair

serene sage
# wet crest is this good?

good perks, good blessings (after swapping out 8%melee and bloodthirsty), not ideal stats.
my verdict is usable as stop gap, but keeping looking
and yeah CSwod is good on vet thumbsup_ogryn

terse idol
#

People perma in malice

#

Aren't building efficiently

#

Let's be reeeaal

#

Many nerfs to the top performing weapons will hit us

tall torrent
#

the avg malice zealot doesn't even know hand cannon exists on revolver

terse idol
#

Because we build to meet specific break points or have specific blessing combinations which put the weapon above and beyond sometimds

#

Malice players are in the >struggling to play the game
Balance struggle

serene sage
ebon geyser
terse idol
#

The balance that affects us will rarely affect them

serene sage
#

I know agri can do that comfortably

wanton dawn
#

Imagine balancing locks

terse idol
#

I Mean we aren't balancing like mmo's

tall torrent
terse idol
#

But the game is more easily balanced because you can just balance enemy health based on difficulty level

tall torrent
#

Lawbringer can 1 tap gunners up to like 8m

serene sage
#

ig ill stick with agri then KEKW_ogryn

terse idol
#

And enemy damage

tall torrent
#

but it's not the spread that screws u

#

it's the dmg falloff past 8m

ebon geyser
serene sage
#

dang, the agri doesn't fall off until 20m

wanton dawn
#

Ultimately all weapon balance change feels bad cuz it is forced interaction with the crafting system

tall torrent
#

agripinaa is a weird one for vet I feel

#

the other two are much more geared towards horde clear imo

serene sage
#

it feels like a bolter with worse carapace killing and better handling/swap speed

ebon geyser
#

Personally with the shotties I think lawbringer and kantrael fit better on the Zealot, and the agri was made for Veteran

tall torrent
#

to compliment a bad-clear melee

ebon geyser
#

You can reliably one shot most light enemies / gunners with one shot out to a goodly distance with the agri and with .exe stance it really does shine even without factoring in the slug

serene sage
#

also yesterday I ran 2x3stamina curios deadshot agri

#

it's actually kinda fun KEKW_ogryn

#

not sure if optimal

#

but fun

tall torrent
#

but kantrael with flechette is a different breed in horde clear

still flare
#

That's how I feel about it. Very fun, but revolver...

serene sage
ebon geyser
#

I normally leave the horde clear to my sword or my frags honestly

tall torrent
#

consignment yard first holdout section u can just perch on 2nd floor and snipe everything with fire shots

serene sage
#

I just dislike the revolver and to a certain extent, I dislike the plasma because of how popular it is

still flare
#

Agri is better suited for gunner control than revolver, but that's all I can think of

serene sage
#

i used to run plasma a decent amount when it wasn't buffed

ebon geyser
#

I don't see much point in running revolver on vet unless you're doing the same gimmick Sprint-Crucian Roulette that I use on my Zealot?

#

Maybe I'm not thinking outside the box

serene sage
#

so you don't have to reload

ebon geyser
#

Meh

serene sage
#

and the instant swap speed means you can make use of a lot of buffs

still flare
#

Idk I still like running revolver with middle and left tree too

ebon geyser
#

I can see it on the melee tree but for melee vet I'd much rather bring either a Columnus V or a laspistol MkII

serene sage
ebon geyser
#

(because infernus IV is nasty)

serene sage
#

do you know what they should do

#

they should buff the sound of the shotgun

#

right now it's a little muffled

#

and a little "plastic"

#

or is it just me?

ebon geyser
#

Oh yeah

#

In case fat shark is looking at my bad opinions

Psword is fine 👍

cinder wing

Rashad Caxe is also a very good choice

wet crest
#

are weapons not shared between classes? can you get a wep that multiple classes can use and use it on different characters?

inland orchid
#

Some weapons are operator locked

#

I.e u can’t get plasma shooters on anything except vet cuz it’s a vet only gun

wet crest
#

riight but if you get a chainsword on your psyker can your vet use it

inland orchid
#

The exact sword straight from accounts? No

#

A sword that is similar? Totally

wet crest
#

its the same account

inland orchid
#

Different operators

wet crest
#

just a different character

inland orchid
#

If the weapon ain’t operator locked u can make a similar one in ur other operator

#

You sadly cannot transfer weapons from one operator to another

flint oyster
# tall torrent if they're all lined up, kantrael with fire shots, scattershot + flechette

I’m doing this with the lawbringer shotgun. The kantrael is nice for the cleave, but getting 5 stacks of scattershot is pretty hard. The lawnbringers wide shot can easily keep up 5 stacks, I’m planning on running it with scattershot and flechette. With veterans onslaught talent anything bleeding also gains stacks of brittleness so it should soften up tougher enemies pretty well.

Quick question about the Veteran's Charismatic talent: does this increase the size of your Coherency? The Aura is listed as affecting allies in coherency, and the talent increases the range of your aura by 50%. The wording is weird, so I'm hoping for some clarification xD

slow spade
#

it seems to be just the aura

#

so a niche use with plasma and revolvers to get more ammo

#

but useless outside of that

terse idol
#

Wouldn't the aura also be the aura which you spread coherency?

slow spade
#

apparently no

terse idol
#

Wow

#

Fs pls

slow spade
#

as you can be in range of the ammo aura BUT not in range to hit everyone with VoC

#

so in my testing it appears to be aura radius only

real lintel
#

VoC isn't coherency, it's 9m.

terse idol
#

I guess that's okay

real lintel

Has its own range listed.

while the Vet one says "Aura"

slow garden
#

Fair play, fair play

Sure he doesn't deal a ton of damage, but he can lock down an entire horde of ragers, other ogryns, and etcetera without even using his ult

Yes gungryn is good in a specific mission that we juuust got

false because randoms can't beat out actually good players

Competing for ranged damage vs vet

No really good melee

I feel like Ogryn's sheer durability, ability to control hordes, clear bad situations, and make space for the other characters to do their job is extremely valuable though, personally.

you compare it to the other 2 abilities and its the ability with the least skill required for most effectiveness KEKW_ogryn

idk why you need the flower glasses lol

Finally some appreciation for Ogryn's carry potential

delicate estuary
#

dunno I am very biased against VoC because I never play it out of principle and I usually dont have space issues as long as I dont back myself into a wall. If I run 20 meters back and let my ogryn handle the front that is fine by me @slow spade that goes for both premade lobbies and pubs in higher difficulties. The only time I wish I had VoC is clutch situations but VoC stinky with 0 skill involved

also Ogryn is the strongest class, by virtue of being the most powercrept class

take your slab somehwere else

slow spade

I have +30% dockets when doing the Offensive

though tbh I'd probably get more going for maelstroms

It's his staying power and space clear/preventative kickback that draws ogryn to top tier for me

Dont like the melee that much, Dont like a lot of the ranged ones.

smite requires soulblaze to be useful and removes player interaction aka its bad for me

Ogryn is powercrept af lowest common denominator gameplay that facerolls pretty much the entire map. Smite psyker is an intellect black hole that isn't anywhere near as useful as people pretend it is.

i feel you

slow spade

Mk2 has fastest firerate and hits all major breakpoints except flamer 1 shot (needs crit), has fastest reload speed and basically never runs out

Mk1 can hit flamer 1 shot without crit and one tap ragers if far away though, but shoots noticeably slower with more ammo consumption (you can actually run out if you just keep shooting forever)

Both mk1 and mk2 have very strong bayonet moveset, use a melee weapon with Brutal Momentum blessing to maximize the bayonets’ effectiveness in horde clear

Mk3 is a dedicated slow firing sniper with the highest damage, but the bayonet is horrible
