yeap

frozen meadow
#

Cheers

limber egret
#

oh yey standard lasgun is fun

#

i havent used it in a while but getting a good lasgun nowits a lot of fun

sage agate
#

i'm compelled to show off my own lasgun

frozen meadow
#

Standard lasgun makes you feel like a proper npc lol

#

In a good way

sage agate
#

the gun that won the galaxy

#

(or at least a sizeable chunk)

frozen meadow
#

I don't know much lore, but enjoy that warhammer uses traditional weapons too

umbral scaffold
#

standard lasgun is really nice and well rounded weapon

#

only thing its not good at is basically anything with armor or monsters

#

otherwise its my main weapon

humble adder
#

Whats the best melee for Vet?

sage agate
#

whatever you kill best iwth

frozen meadow
#

I have been really enjoying the recon lasgun recently with infernus

sage agate
#

tho i enoy chainsword and shovel

#

and dclaw is a good choice

frozen meadow
#

I love the feeling of mowing down hordes with it and everything on fire

limber egret
#

powersword seems great for hode clearing

frozen meadow
#

Hence I want a good fire shotgun

limber egret
#

the MK 3 one i use does it well when doing heavy attacks

humble adder
frozen meadow
#

What blessings are good on a kantreal shotgun btw?

sage agate
humble adder
sage agate
#

post

sage agate
frozen meadow
#

Can scattershot and fletchette roll on it?

humble adder
#

Very mid

#

But its all I have, im looking for an upgrade, I use swords on my zealot so something similar to the heavy swords would be nice

sage agate
frozen meadow
#

I was just thinking because the special has really good cleave

sage agate
#

actually kantrael mightr have some cleave

#

could proc there

frozen meadow
#

I need to look up what blessings are actually available

sage agate
frozen meadow
#

Another thing the game makes you figure out yourself

humble adder
sage agate
frozen meadow
#

The stats are pretty good on the chainsword

#

Mods to the rescue

#

At this point I should just install the first 30 most downloaded mods

#

They all help

sage agate
sage agate
# humble adder

sad that you changed the perk since chainsword is fairly reliant on blessings. i'd probably just maximize shred

frozen meadow
#

I get you, my favourite mod is weapon customisation, game is boring af without it

sage agate
#

true

#

oh, also the hub mod

#

so you dont have to run around everywhere

frozen meadow
#

Ah I like running around the hub and looking at all the stupid ass ogryns

#

Gives me joy seeing their names

sage agate
#

worth the 2390 melkbucks?

frozen meadow
#

Doesn't look like it

limber egret
#

hows this now?

#

i got a better perk on it

frozen meadow
#

That is very nice stats holy

limber egret
#

or well replaced the not great perk with maniacs

frozen meadow
#

Flak and maniac damage is always good

sage agate
# limber egret

either maniac or weak spot dmg to absolutely destroy heads

frozen meadow
#

Can never go wrong

sage agate
#

but looks good

limber egret
#

i been told that weakspot damage is apperenty very bad perk

#

i dont remember exact details

frozen meadow
#

Yeh because your talent perks can do the same thing but to a massive degree better

limber egret
umbral scaffold
limber egret
#

im also running this talent as well

umbral scaffold
#

Like if it was 25% weak spot damage it’d be competitive

frozen meadow
#

Like there is a talent which gives 30% weak spot damage

limber egret
#

oh im running that as well

#

30% weakspot damage

frozen meadow
#

When in doubt, flak and maniac

#

Lpl

paper brook
#

Ok pilgrims, if I'm only able to switch one perk on my weapon do I take flak or maniac damage? Like which one should I take over the other if I can't have both?

paper brook
#

Columnus Mk V

frozen meadow
#

I prefer maniac I think

sage agate
#

flak is more applicable

limber egret
sage agate
#

like

#

widely used

frozen meadow
#

What are muties again?

limber egret
#

i also have one of those autoguns

sage agate
#

maniac

limber egret
#

the Columnus V one

frozen meadow
#

Ah yeh I like being able to take them down faster

#

Feels good to shoot them down just before they get to you

sage agate
#

if u have a maniac solution, take flak

#

but ragers and muties can be run enders

frozen meadow
#

Ragers are babies after new patch, they die instantly

limber egret
#

i also have this plasma gun

paper brook
limber egret
#

this good right?

#

something i showed some time ago

#

but curious what are thoughts still

paper brook
#

I mean the charge Rate is meh but everything else about it is amazing

frozen meadow
#

Ragers in this game def less scary than vermintide equivalent

#

Plague rats scare me

limber egret
#

charge rate from what i seen so far seems very small difference

#

like even 70% plus from trying it out seems way too small of a difference

frozen meadow
#

Better than my one

paper brook
#

Ahh ok makes sense

wintry copper
#

What do you guys pu on your Lawbringer shotguns? The exploding round one

#

I'm trying to make one for my Specialist build

frozen meadow
#

I put my 2 perks as maniac and flak when the blessings it had were dumdumdum abd sustained salvo

limber egret
#

this was my old plasma gun

frozen meadow
#

Rip the perfect gun

limber egret
#

but i did a mistake with the modifications

#

tho it was a bad perk so i guess had too change it

#

glorhunter blessing was nice tho

frozen meadow
#

Yeh the locks suck, I ruined a couple amazing weapons by not understanding it

limber egret
#

getting lots of toughness back from one shotting elites

#

also so heres my bolter

#

so what about this?

crude fiber
#

a gift from the emperor, 3 months too late

limber egret
#

even tho stuck with shattering impact but seems pretty nice despite it

#

like atleast works as a blessing instead of being a garbage blessing

frozen meadow
#

Pretty good bolter

limber egret
#

also a mod im using

#

is pretty nice

silk oasis
#

hey guys, im returning after few months, whats best for vet atm? Currently im using my old power sword mk3 with recyler+brittlenes and Kantrael XII or lucius I

crude ermine
#

Well

limber egret
crude ermine
#

Or

umbral scaffold
crude ermine
#

use a revolver

tiny summit
#

A lot of things. XII lasgun is still good but Ia got buffed enough to compensate a 40 dmg differential with its higher fire rate.

crude ermine
#

I wonder how many times I've said revolver

#

56 times

#

Not enough

tidal wedge
tiny summit
#

Bayonet on helbore 1/2 is ridiculous

silk oasis
#

bayonet? it is usefull now?

tiny summit
#

Yes. Enough to only need your melee for poxbursters

frozen meadow
limber egret
#

oh Oof

crude fiber
#

revolver is is almost too reliable. its silly good

tiny summit
#

Bayonet gotta say is one of vets best melee weapons against ragers

umbral scaffold
#

Revolver is amazing if I need to win a game I pick that

tidal wedge
#

chainsword and shovel also pretty good atm

silk oasis
#

this game seems stupider with each patch...

crude ermine
#

Yeah a lot of the stuff in this game is strong as shit

tidal wedge
tiny summit
#

But it has to be helbore 1 or 2. 3's downward slash is meh

torn moat
#

Autoguns are pretty popular for vet now.

#

Columnus and Agri. Not the Graia.

limber egret
#

im still hoping for hotshot lasgun/hellgun

fresh mango
#

this worth grabbing for supercharge?

crude ermine
#

Mmm

torn moat
#

Supercharge isn't worth it on a powersword imo.

umbral scaffold
#

Ye

fresh mango
#

Conflicting answers

umbral scaffold
#

Not that you'll use it

torn moat
#

Unless you just collecting blessings.

umbral scaffold
#

But if they decide to do something with it, you'll have it

crude ermine
#

Supercharge at first tricked me into believing I got power cycler 4

#

I'll never forgive it

fresh mango
#

Part of me wants to collect the blessings yeah, ivealready got a really nice PSword

silk oasis
#

what about plasma?

terse idol
torn moat
#

If you're collecting blessings, than it's always worth grabbing unearned Tier 4s.

crude ermine
tiny summit
fresh mango
#

Plas is OP atm

umbral scaffold
#

plasma is meta

#

Tzeentch has his hand in every patch

torn moat
#

But if you're asking for whether it's a blessing you'll use in the current patch? Probably not.

terse idol
#

Plasma is stronk

fresh mango
#

Plas and revolver are the best guns iirc

silk oasis
#

So why no1 said plasma in the first place?

crude ermine
#

Only thing that rivals my beloved lover the revolver

terse idol
#

About on par with revolver

tidal wedge
crude ermine
tiny summit
terse idol
silk oasis
#

....

umbral scaffold
#

Shredder auto pistol is the best weapon in the game

#

Several patches ago

torn moat
#

Agri Brauto is good.

tiny summit
#

Gotten kinda bored by plasma

crude ermine
silk oasis
#

I dont have any other blessing, what should i look out for?

tidal wedge
crude ermine
#

Doesn't give me the feel the revolver does

crude ermine
#

And there's another one too

torn moat
#

Plasma is strong. Revolver is good now. But I think it's overrated here because people have used it as a meme weapon for so long that now that it's actually competative, people overrate it.

tiny summit
#

Blaze away and gets hot right?

crude ermine
#

I think yeah

#

Yeah that

fresh mango
#

Revolver is def not overrated

tidal wedge
crude ermine
#

The new revolver is fun as hell but I can't get used to it like the old one

torn moat
#

A gun with only ~70 shots? Doesn't feel very strong.

umbral scaffold
#

Fanning revolver doesn’t have the same amt of damage it only has faster firing and a speedloader going for it

#

I tried it and it’s alright but it’s a totally different weapon from the og revolver pretty much

fresh mango
#

Hit your shots and the low ammo reserve doesnt matter

umbral scaffold
#

It’s aight. Over rated as FUCK in my opinion

crude ermine
#

The only thing ig you can do with it is do that one vid involving melting a boss but your quite literally building around ONE thing that isn't as common as say a lot of specials

umbral scaffold
#

The old revolver is basically the quintessential gun

silk oasis
#

so boltguns are useless now?

fresh mango
#

Not at all

tiny summit
#

Weapon specialist revolver fun since I don't have to reload ever

crude ermine
#

No

#

Just outclassed

fresh mango
#

Bolter is still quite good, just not as good as plas

crude ermine
#

Still usable

torn moat
#

Revolver isn't ammo efficient on high difficulties. Sure it'll do decent damage (especially on crit builds). But you'll be running dry on ammo too quickly to be able to do much halfway through the map.

fresh mango
#

I want bolter draw speed to be a bit faster and have 20 as its max capacity instead of 15

umbral scaffold
#

Then just melee

torn moat
#

Bolter is good. Comparable to a fully automatic revolver with a much slower draw/aim time.

tiny summit
# silk oasis so boltguns are useless now?

I use them to feel something. Something plasma fails to do after my 1st week with it. Clunky and outclassed but still viable and activates my neurons more than any other gun

fresh mango
umbral scaffold
sage agate
umbral scaffold
#

People using revolver on everything are crazy

fresh mango
#

thats such a ? take to me

bitter turtle
#

not sure how you're running otu of ammo

fresh mango
#

If youre vet running survivalist with revolver you physically shouldnt run out of ammo

torn moat
bitter turtle
#

you are probably shooting too much

tidal wedge
fresh mango
#

like its nearly impossible

umbral scaffold
#

But when there's a shitty trapper behind 603 poxwalkers, you just need 1 shot

bitter turtle
#

wep specialist synergizes with revolver a stupid amount

sage agate
#

i wonder if revolver benefits from stacking crit from roulette if you use weapon mastery to reload it

bitter turtle
#

you are b asically encouraged to pop a shot every 10 seconds

#

and have an inifnite clip size

umbral scaffold
#

Revolver is goated at what a ranged weapon is the best for

limber egret
#

saying revolver is overated?

#

or the bolter?

fresh mango
#

Bolter not, revolver by one person yes

torn moat
#

So... Your arguements for a revolver running out of ammo is that you should not be shooting as much with revolver?

umbral scaffold
#

Also not many people know this but always prepared increases the amount of ammo you get from pickups. By default if you have a revolver an ammo tin will only replenish 8 rounds, with always prepared you get an extra 2 rounds

#

Yeah?

torn moat
#

If I stop shooting, I save ammo?

umbral scaffold
#

Ammo economy

fresh mango
#

My solution is hit your shots lol

torn moat
#

Wow.

#

Thanks

bitter turtle
torn moat
#

Very smart

bitter turtle
#

25% attackspeed

#

while abusing the free passive reload

#

1taps basically almost any special

umbral scaffold
#

What are you shooting with the revolver to run out of ammo so easily?

bitter turtle
#

while your melee is boosted to having extremely high dps

umbral scaffold
#

Did you expect a magical miracle for ammo economy?

fresh mango
#

idk what these guys are talking about but i legit dont know how youre running out of ammo

tiny summit
fresh mango
#

are you spilling ammo while reloading?

umbral scaffold
#

Prioritize specialists and elites for that ammo boost, try to line up shooters so you kill more per shot

crude ermine
#

The only things I've seen that can be it are like bosses or common enemies

bitter turtle
#

if you're shooting at poxwalkers or whatever with the revolver that's just not how the gun is meant to be used

torn moat
#

Specials, elites. Revolvers ability to hit targets through crowds is great.

fresh mango
#

are you shooting literally every single enemy you see?

frank ether
#

Idk how vet struggles with revolver ammo

terse idol
sage agate
#

vet chat poppin off rn

terse idol
#

Braced

torn moat
#

Again, play on Auric or Damnation.

crude ermine
#

I love pairing it with mf, idk who got me into it but it made me ditch focus target heavily

bitter turtle
#

yes i play auric mael exclusively

torn moat
#

See how long you keep full ammo. Unles you are expecting to take all the ammo pickups from your team.

frank ether
#

I don't play any other difficulty lmao

fresh mango
#

i literally only play auric damnation

tiny summit
limber egret
#

survivalist also works wekk with plasma gun

terse idol
#

Well you shouldn't need to be at full ammo,
But I will say, uh

fresh mango
#

Not once have i run out of ammo as PSYKER

terse idol
#

If youre not meeting the breakpoints

crude ermine
#

Gunpsyker

frank ether
#

maybe you're not running survivalist?

fresh mango
#

If you run out of ammo as VET thats a legit skill issue

terse idol
#

I can kiinda see ammo problems

bitter turtle
#

again you are probably unironically shooting too much OR not running surv maybe yeah

crude ermine
#

Gunspykering all over the place

umbral scaffold
#

Auric is amazing for ammo if anything cause of all those elites and specialists

limber egret
#

can literally gain postive ammo when killing multiple enemies per shot

torn moat
#

Case in point. Columnus and Plasma are both much more ammo efficient. You won't have to 'rely on melee' to kill specials/elites.

terse idol
#

That's a problem I had with pgun until I met it

bitter turtle
#

revolver melee vet is one of the best vet builds

frank ether
#

if you're gun focused you should be running survivalist to begin with

#

if you're melee focused, use your melee duh

umbral scaffold
#

Mocking people advising using melee every now and then is a cringe take

fresh mango
tiny summit
#

We have no idea what game you are playing having ammo issues on revolver when you 1 tap most enemies who give you back ammo

bitter turtle
terse idol
#

If you dont you wiiilll leak ammo

bitter turtle
#

that being said

#

yes

umbral scaffold
bitter turtle
#

columnus is better for a build where you just shoot everything

torn moat
umbral scaffold
#

It is 1

bitter turtle
#

since it reasonably can do that

terse idol
#

So much fun shooting into hordes

bitter turtle
#

revolver should not be doing that

torn moat
#

1% ammo regen on revolver is less than 1 bullet per kill.

umbral scaffold
#

You kill elites and specialists with 1 shot usually

silk oasis
#

which columnus are you talking about?

sage agate
umbral scaffold
torn moat
#

Didn't they get rid of the rounding?

terse idol
torn moat
#

Like 3 patchs ago

umbral scaffold
terse idol
#

Survivalist doesn't round up

#

It uses decimal points

crude ermine
umbral scaffold
#

Burst damage to kill important shit

crude ermine
#

Too much elf will do that to you

umbral scaffold
#

I am pretty sure you get 1 shot per elite/specialist kill even now

tiny summit
#

No. It's why a kickback ogryn gets so much value sitting near a vet.

umbral scaffold
#

Then back to slicing

terse idol
#

So you could he hitting 2:1

umbral scaffold
#

Otherwise I’d notice how useless the revolver is

terse idol
#

Or 3:1

torn moat
#

So again, you have to kill 2 specials/elites (Without missing any other shots) to regen 1 bullet.

sage agate
#

(hot take for vt fans)

terse idol
crude ermine
#

Debatable but I respect your opinion

fresh mango
#

every 2 kills gives you 1 bullet BUT this isnt accounting for every time your ALLIES kills 2 elites

terse idol
#

Because it's max ammo

frank ether
#

revolver doesnt get ammo roll

terse idol
#

If you have a high max ammo revolver...

frank ether
#

at least

#

zarona doesnt

terse idol
#

Oh

torn moat
#

Not really. As long as it has less than 100 rounds, it will never regen 1 shot per special/elite kill.

frank ether
#

agripina braced maybe

crude ermine
#

It foes not

terse idol
#

Okay

#

Then it isn't 1:1

crude ermine
#

It has reload speed and mobility

umbral scaffold
crude ermine
#

With pen, bonus Crit and damg

terse idol
#

But best case for a 2:1 is still good

#

Because you can get penetration

#

Kill multiple in one shot

frank ether
#

in any case you might just have to occasionally pick up a tin or two boohoo what a nightmare

bitter turtle
#

revolver enables a melee playstyle better than almost any gun is the short of it

umbral scaffold
#

I think always prepared does factor into survivalist ammo regen as well

torn moat
#

Alright compare that to weapons that have several hundred rounds of ammo? They regen multiple shots per elite kill.

bitter turtle
#

and melee vet is still one of the best ways to play this class

frank ether
#

yeah my ciag regens a lot on kill

crude ermine
#

Meleeing all over the place

frank ether
#

it also takes an entire mag to kill a crusherr you know

terse idol
#

Survivalist is just 1%

bitter turtle
fresh mango
#

This is kinda stupid to discuss im ngl

crude ermine
#

It really is

torn moat
#

Yes, many will take more shots. But depends on the weapon. If you hit weak points and breakpoints, many of the guns can be ammo positive.

crude ermine
#

But it's kinda fun

fresh mango
#

wow this gun has way more bullets so it has better ammo!

limber egret
#

hey so what makes the bayonet on the MK 1 and 2 helbores great currently?

bitter turtle
#

like ya if you intend to ONLY USE REVOLVER and never pull out your melee, revolver might be kinda bad

fresh mango
#

But it takes more bullets to kill

frank ether
#

vet chat always has the most silly pointless discussions lmao

#

its part of the charm a

#

at this point

umbral scaffold
# terse idol Wdym

When you have 25% plus more ammo that increases how much ammo you get for pickups and how much ammo you have in reserve. So 1% of your ammo would be a higher number with +25% ammo

fresh mango
#

it is

bitter turtle
#

is gud

frank ether
#

braced revolver breaks over 100 rounds with %25 ammo btw

serene bough
#

what gun are we talking about

sage agate
frank ether
#

if you want a more spammy revolver braced is there for u

umbral scaffold
#

I still am in utter shock at the implication that using melee to save ammo is bad

umbral scaffold
#

The only thing bad is their melee skills

Oh yeahh

Idk we've reached the point of discord debate that I've forgot how this started

which saves you ammo

frank ether
#

you can make a perfectly competitive melee vet without any keystones

yes

but you can make an even more busted vet with the melee keystones :^)

don't think the extra attack speed makes a difference past a certain point

People claiming revolver is best ranged weapon on vet. I am saying it's good now, but people overhype it.

not that columnus is bad but

torn moat
bitter turtle
#

or other types like that

but gunpsyker noises

#

and im p sure plasma/revolver are both considered top tier weapons so

crude ermine
#

However I do enjoy the mk3 shovel

umbral scaffold
#

Until revolver stops clowning specials hidden in the middle of thick hordes, revolver pretty much can't be overrated

bitter turtle

i dont think anyone was saying plasma doesnt compete well

torn moat

Also, I said 'vet'. Revolver is fantastic for other classes.

serene bough

Can't make me nuh uh

Ok, i asked some questions and chat exploded, if i could get some extra answers it would be great. I would like RANGED vet build not melee.

umbral scaffold

Umgak

bitter turtle
#

pick a gun first

umbral scaffold
#

Play knife and be happy

serene bough
#

plenty of ways to build for ranged

umbral scaffold
#

Standard issue shovel has better heavy attacks than the mk3 imo

torn moat
silk oasis
#

I just want one that works, last time i asked that questions i switched to ogryn

bitter turtle
#

for the strongest build

umbral scaffold
#

The wide sweeping is better for crowd control but the mk3 with uncanny strike will murder carapace

frank ether
#

Its up there with the best of the best guns

umbral scaffold
#

BIS gravitates between plasma and revolver

bitter turtle
#

plasma/revolver is basically just preference at that point

#

plasma is clunkier but even more braindead

#

easy to use

sage agate
limber egret
#

ok i see why bayonet very strong now

sage agate
#

also take a toughness gen at the top of the tree, either weakspot kill or special/elite kill

serene bough
#

BiS is kind of weird to debate with the revolver

umbral scaffold
#

Both are essentially tied as the best guns in the game, given I don't play ogryn

serene bough
#

because it's arguably one of a kind in comparison to other weapons

umbral scaffold
#

But even kickback doesn't seem to have the same level of special clowning

bitter turtle
#

yeah I mean I guess its not BiS for left keystone vets

frank ether
bitter turtle
#

but DMR style play is just decent at best

serene bough
#

yeah pretty much

crude ermine
#

I still like it tho

serene bough
#

pocket sniper

frank ether
#

pretty much yes

umbral scaffold
#

Not running a mk2 or mk1 helbore, which is better and is it worth running onslaught on either one of them?

#

You look at the special funny and suddenly there's no trapper

serene bough
#

but lots of guns arent pocket snipers, so it's technically best in slot bc there isn't much else it competes with

umbral scaffold
#

And maybe you caught something behind it with the cleave

frank ether
#

If that revolver had more reserve ammo it would be so stupidly broken

forest blaze
#

I’ve been a big fan recently of plasma + new chain axe using weapon specialist. Stay melee with chaxe and pull the plasma to shoot hoes from afar

frank ether
#

that the ammo and reload is literally the only thing keeping revolver in check

#

and you come complain that ammo is keeping it in check lmao

umbral scaffold
#

Killing 4 shotgunners with one shot is fucking bliss

crude ermine
#

I like to run volley adept with it

torn moat
#

Any consenus on which chain axe is best now?

umbral scaffold
#

I love my mk3 it’s pretty good I just wonder if anyone thinks it’s worth switching over cause the bayo is pretty on the others

i havent used the revolver since it was buffed to its current state

forest blaze
frank ether
forest blaze
#

Strike down heavies 🤌

tiny summit
frank ether
#

old chainaxe can light rev one shot a lot of special and elites

torn moat
#

Light attacks for hordes, heavy attacks for killing armor.

sage agate
umbral scaffold
#

How’s the charged damage on crushers with the mk1

umbral scaffold
frank ether
#

its a light attack for the old one though

umbral scaffold
#

Horde guns are redundant as fuck

sage agate
#

for mk1 you could opt to run sustained fire or opening salvo, either one

tiny summit
sage agate
#

instead of onslaught

serene bough
umbral scaffold
#

A gun that can cleave towards specials removes the mobility and cleave problem of trying to reach it with more "balanced" guns

frank ether
#

and I don't mind charging heavies for horde clear since its not that timing sensitive

umbral scaffold
#

And it just so happens disablers are the most dangerous enemies in the game

#

Except crushers because of the fucking one-shots

But an enemy that effectively one-shots you without team intervention is absolute highest priority

#

And revolver shits on them hard

serene bough
#

a lot of weapons do though

#

trappers arent exactly tanky

torn moat
#

Can't the new vet shovel one shot crushers?

bitter turtle
#

I think what excels for revolver is unironically the swap speed

umbral scaffold
#

They don't need to be, but the situations in which revolver can execute its function are massive

bitter turtle
#

I've tried wep specialist builds for v7

sage agate
frank ether
sage agate
#

at least i havent managed to one shot

bitter turtle
#

It's not even slow to come out but it still is a bit clunky

umbral scaffold
#

Fast as fuck swap, huge cleave, cracked damage

torn moat
#

vraks 7 needs buff.

bitter turtle
#

Eh

#

It's fine as is

frank ether
#

nah

torn moat
#

At least give it the abiltiy to penetrate multiple targets on weak point hit.

bitter turtle
#

I only use it and nothing else in auric mael

torn moat
#

ability*

frank ether
#

I used to think the same thing and then I realized its just sharpshooter veteran that sucks

serene bough
#

yeah but only 5 shots + reload (unless you're going weapon specialist) so the revolver's power is balanced out by that

umbral scaffold
#

It is, but at the same time it fits melee-heavy builds like a glove

serene bough
#

everyone knows the revolver is good, im just saying there's plenty of weapons that can compete in high difficulties

umbral scaffold
#

And you have staged reloads on top of wep spec

bitter turtle
#

It's basically better than anything else at picking off non-carapace elites/specials in huge quantities

#

Imo

#

OK except plasma maybe

umbral scaffold
#

Oh, there's a lot of competition, of course

bitter turtle
#

If they're all standing in a line

frank ether
#

I'm running autoguns instead lately

#

due to knifes poor cleave

umbral scaffold
#

I can wipe most of the enemy roster with the agri IAG

serene bough
#

i recently swapped from autoguns to infantry las

umbral scaffold
#

You keep the crosshair steady and let the finesse do the rest

bitter turtle
#

But my gunner kills is always 3x everyone with v7 in AM

#

And usually still higher specialist kills too

serene bough
#

im still trying to enjoy chain weapons but shovel moveset the best for me

torn moat
serene bough
#

Mg1a & mg4 good in my opinion

umbral scaffold
#

I rate gun usefulness by cleave because it ends up tied to damage per shot anyway

serene bough
#

Mg1a outshines Mg12 but Mg12 still okay

umbral scaffold
#

Except the agri revolver

torn moat
#

So Mg4>Mg1a>Mg12?

sage agate
#

other way around

umbral scaffold
#

Plasma and revolver at the top, lasguns at the bottom

serene bough
#

mg4 and mg1a are prefrence, but generally mg1a better

sage agate
#

although the Ia isvery good

tiny summit
#

Mg4 is good

serene bough
#

mg4 i like for large streams of sustained fire and mg1a i use for 1 tap headshots

#

you could hold the trigger down for like half a minute if you bring shocktrooper

tall torrent
torn moat
#

My only gripe with the 12 is that it's rate of fire limits it's ability to change targets quickly.

serene bough
#

i dont think mg4 and 12 are equivalent

umbral scaffold
#

I can't stress how utterly maddening it is to get an MG12 crit blocked by the poxwalker doing a Mr. President Get Down for the toxflamer because that massive damage gun has no fucking cleave

serene bough
#

mg4 is kind of like a hybrid between an infantry las and a laspistol

tall torrent
#

MG12 has the best one shot potential but lowest DPS, and it requires you to play either Exe stance or marksman’s focus

#

Or it doesn’t reach 1 shot potential and is just not worth using

serene bough
#

but doesnt the 1a also reach the same breakpoints with exe stance as the 12

bitter turtle
#

Does 12 even have any real advantage over v7 or helbore

tall torrent
bitter turtle
tall torrent
#

And doesn’t require mods to have good sights

bitter turtle
#

OK fair

sage agate
#

more ammo efficient for killing shooters

tiny summit
#

Helbore sights fine

bitter turtle
#

V7 and hb3 effectively have infinite ammo as it is

sage agate
#

fine, but not good

bitter turtle
#

I dont think more ammo is what they really need to worry about

serene bough
#

i dont think any las weapon struggles with ammo as long as shocktrooper exists

tiny summit
#

Yep

bitter turtle
#

Ywah

tiny summit
#

Except recon...

serene bough
#

we dont talk about recon

bitter turtle
#

And v7 can go entire runs with no pickups with surv

serene bough
#

wonder how they'll nerf survivalist in the future

umbral scaffold
#

They shouldn’t

#

1% ammo for elites and specialists is fine as is

serene bough
#

i would be surprised if it doesn't happen

sage agate
#

gimme 1.5 so i dont even look at an ammo pack again KEKW_ogryn

serene bough
#

1% with the amount of elites in auric maelstrom is enough to replenish your ammo reserve 5x over in some cases

umbral scaffold
#

Sure but it matches the difficulty of such levels

#

Vets without survivalist will vacuum up all the ammo on a map otherwise

serene bough
#

i don't disagree, but thats part of the problem w/ the games ammo economy

limber egret
serene bough
#

and its why survivalist is almost always the pick

limber egret
#

hey so you know this blessing right?

#

how its garbage?

#

would it be better if they just changed it to if you hit weakspots it does this?

serene bough
umbral scaffold
#

You can’t shoot for 4-5 seconds each shot

sage agate
#

even then, nah

#

lasgun has ZERO ammo issues, esp if you run shocktroop

umbral scaffold
#

get shocktrooper instead of efficiency

limber egret
#

yeah but what if they changed it to what i mentioned

#

so its actually good blessing?

umbral scaffold
#

They should buff efficiency definitely

serene bough
#

as long as shocktrooper exists there's no reason for efficiency

umbral scaffold
#

Weakspots are easy to hit with lasguns and it would make shock trooper redundant

tiny summit
serene bough
#

crits consuming no ammo with blessings like headhunter make every infantry las self sustaining

umbral scaffold
#

Lore accurate too

#

I wish efficiency didn't share a spot with headhunter and DA

#

Lasguns are the pinnacle of logistics

limber egret
#

well yeah but the game shouldnt be left with things this bad really

serene bough
#

im sure it'll be changed

#

a lot as changed within a year

limber egret
#

so figured i could give an idea on what they could atleast do

umbral scaffold
#

People clowned on efficiency in the past, but it's actually a genuinely nice blessing

#

Or was before we got fixed survivalist and shock trooper

#

And HH and DA

#

Yea before it was nice on the mg12 since it was already slow firing sure

sage agate
#

i would really rather see efficiency on plasmaguns

limber egret
#

the helbore seem like would benefit

sage agate
#

33% reduced ammo on charged shots would be nice

limber egret
#

if your doing the charge attack on it

serene bough
limber egret
#

actually right

#

forgot about that

#

tho i guess plasma gun would benefit having a effcienty like that

#

like for charged shots

umbral scaffold
#

Oh, and the thing is

ebon umbra
#

unless they nerf the plasma in someway it really doesnt need that

umbral scaffold
#

Efficiency is straight up lying about everything

umbral scaffold
#

It says not shooting for X seconds causes the next shot to be buffed

#

It doesn't, you don't need to not shoot

#

It says it reduces the cost by 33%

#

It doesn't, it makes the shot cost 1

#

On the MG12 it reduces a shot's cost every idfk 4 or 5 seconds by 75%

#

Unless they fixed that, which isn't Fatshark's MO

#

Knowing them and what they did to run n gun

#

Efficiency probably deals 200% damage on the affected shot or something and mails ammo back to the Mourningstar

#

Unmentioned ofc

#

Just like run n gun doesn't like to say it uhhh

#

I think it was reduced hipfire spread and increased close range damage

limber egret
#

i really just want some new guns mainly

#

been hoping for the hotshot lasgun/hellgun for veteran

devout comet
#

At what distance do you get the full damage bonus of longshot?

final meadow
#

Meltagun den

limber egret
#

the new funny shovel is the only new ish thing they added

#

like after a year

final meadow
#

Super shovel would be great

limber egret
#

it would be really nice to get atleast some new guns that are not just existing weapons but different patterns

hardy ember
#

Need hotshot lasguns and belt fed stubbas please

#

Bolt and plasma pistols as well

limber egret
#

im not sure if theres gonna be like a Christmas update

final meadow
#

Sniper rifle would be cool as well

limber egret
#

like new content and stuff

terse shell
#

day 60, still waiting for melk to drop power cycler IV

limber egret
#

but since they are apperenty adding a scion skin it would be nice to see the hotshot lasgun/hellgun be added

#

would be a letdown if they end up not

final meadow
#

Should be Kasrkin change my mind

hardy ember
#

A Scion skill without hellgun is not a Scion

#

Much like a space marine without his armor

limber egret
#

even if its just one new weapon

#

i would take it if its the hotshot/hellgun

frozen meadow
#

I made an abomination, time to cook

limber egret

its the number 1 weapon i want really

tiny summit

that would be a letdown really

crude fiber

they really meant longshot

No, its not surpression. Firing in rapid pace with it just feels awful compared to everything else

umbral scaffold

devout comet
slender turtle
#

Im not when its competition kills everything else faster and better. It could use all the benefits it can get without affecting its damage

umbral scaffold
#

@devout comet this forum post will have the info you need

#

I remember it being a fixed range for all guns

bitter turtle
#

Iirc it's something like 30m for full dmg

umbral scaffold
#

Yea apparently I might’ve been wrong I remembered it being dependent on the weapon itself since not all weapons have the same effective ranges

bitter turtle
#

It's stupidly long

sage agate
#

the emperor invented the agri iag for the sole purpose of dunking on heretics OmegaGuardsmanHype

umbral scaffold
#

I think you're lying about being Vernick

bitter turtle
#

I consider Longshot only useful if your gun is like literally 10 dmg short from a breakpoint

#

Lul

God dam they made one of the best looking skills actually garbage

bitter turtle
#

Longshot prob

devout comet
#

Lmao

bitter turtle
#

Since they were asking

umbral scaffold
#

I like the long range engagements in Darktide my only wish is that they could be longer but alas we are in crowded hive cities

bitter turtle
#

It's not that garbage but you can't rely on it being more than like 5-10 percent dmg

#

It's OK on some guns

devout comet
#

Vet is underpowered part 2 inbound

sage agate
devout comet
#

But yea it's a real shame

bitter turtle
#

There's still way worse talents

umbral scaffold
#

Lasguns by default do less damage at shorter ranges iirc

devout comet
umbral scaffold
#

So longshot on a lasgun isn’t the worst deal ever

sage agate
sage agate
#

also kill zone NEVER procs

bitter turtle
#

Fire team is OK honestly

sage agate
#

since yo're always within 8m of an enemy on auric/damnation

umbral scaffold
bitter turtle
#

If you compare it to other auras on other classes it's about the same

sage agate
#

also the talents before movement aura are pretty bad

bitter turtle
#

Survivalist is just broken

sage agate
bitter turtle
#

Ya that one is terrible

umbral scaffold
#

I like that one

bitter turtle
#

Only exists for mercy killer knife

umbral scaffold
#

I also hardly run it but I liked it on the knife

serene bough
bitter turtle
#

And imo mercy killer knife is not even the best setup for knife

sage agate
#

also they really need to add a link here

#

instead of having to crawl over

#

but thats just my bad opinion

#

bc i want to find ways to save talent points to also pick up desperado

bitter turtle
#

They should just make survivalist passive for vets and make a new aura

#

Fire team and movespeed arent bad

#

Survivalist is just too good

#

Fucking phone

umbral scaffold
#

Make veterans by default have at least 0.5% ammo regen with the other auras and survivalist will buff that to 1%

#

So that ammo isn’t too much of a concern and the other auras might have a reason to be picked

frozen meadow
#

do bleed or fire trigger onsalught?

bitter turtle
#

They patched it to not trigger it last patch

#

Used to

#

For bleeding at least idk about fire

tiny summit
tiny summit
teal abyss
#

Wouldn’t giving vets passive ammo regen make that one penance about finishing a mission with no ammo like very hard lol

bitter turtle
#

Like I unironically think fire team and movespeed are better than most auras if you look at all classes lol

tiny summit
sage agate
calm prairie
bitter turtle
#

Well let me ask

sage agate
#

that's how i got it done

#

could've been shadowpatched tho

bitter turtle
#

Would you rather have Fire team or 10 percent dmg only for your melee heavies lol

devout comet
#

They need a reload passive tbh

#

Replace the movement one

bitter turtle
#

Or the psyker elite dmg one which got nerfed to a straight downgrade to fire team

serene bough
#

tbh these auras would be competitive if they just stacked in coherency

sage agate
tiny summit
#

Wasn't fire team like 3% before?

serene bough
#

yeah used to be 3%

halcyon jackal
#

alright how the fuck is the long bomb penance supposed to be done

sage agate
#

i think it's 25m

bitter turtle
#

But yeah the movespeed aura is low key really good

calm prairie
#

End of the ammo depot mission

tiny summit
bitter turtle
#

Just doesn't get picked cause survivalist is so far out of line

calm prairie
#

Thats one of the less ass penances

bitter turtle
#

Compared to anything else on any class for auras

tiny summit

I got it when I wanted to go for it randomly at the start of a match. On the map with the daemon tree

Ya basically

halcyon jackal

Which grenade is best for it

devout comet

Are you dumb?

bitter turtle
#

no u

forest blaze
warm idol
#

yeah sure the ciag is better dps

#

but does it have the big, meaty chunky feeling of the agri?

#

I think not

devout comet
#

But fr movment is dumb and the modifier on the first row should just get the extra +5% while it's aura is replaced with a reload one

sage agate
sage agate
#

also agri has cleave i think lol

bitter turtle
#

You can unironically just walk away from a lot of problems lol

devout comet
#

Yea but having it as an aura is b a a d

warm idol
#

yeah it has a bit of cleave like the xii iirc

bitter turtle
#

Nah

#

Other classes can appreciate it too

sage agate
#

also TIL that trapper is maniac apparently

warm idol
#

I think most "heavy" variants of guns have 1 target cleave

devout comet
#

What you're gonna give your allies the movement speed to walk away from you and then immediatly be debuffed again?

warm idol
bitter turtle
#

I already said surv is still the pick

#

It's too far out of line relative to any aura on any tree

gaunt hinge
#

Why walk away from a problem when bullets can do the walking thumbsup_ogryn

devout comet
#

Reload speed aura is desperately needed, would probably rival surv if they make it like 20%

warm idol
#

reload speed aura if it's a noticeable % would actually be goated

#

especially for ogryns

#

since their guns reload slower than a paraplegic turtle

umbral scaffold
#

reload speed aura if it was actually good would be monstrous for something like the achlys

bitter turtle
#

Lol

umbral scaffold
#

pumping out hundreds of bullets in seconds

bitter turtle
#

The point of movespeed is for in combat mobility

#

Ya but I'm saying

Movespeed doesn't make that worse

#

If anything it helps you keep up

#

When they dip out and lose the aura lul

forest blaze

I'd appreciate a 10% reload aura

Apes trying to solo the mission makes the game much harder than it needs to be

Hmm yes, let me pic the aura that makes me microsopically faster

bitter turtle

In gonna echo what someone was saying earlier today

devout comet
#

Pick vangaurd next time, it'll help more

gaunt hinge

Blitz damage aura KEKW_ogryn

The two movespeed nodes gives you enough to practically walk away from most threats lol

Both movement talents together work well

You're underestimating it a lot lul

To me its hilarious that vet tree gets a rework every single month

and it still has problems

that persisted since P13

movement speed should be 40%

like this whole aura debate

umbral scaffold

There is no debate everything other than survivalist isn’t liked at all

It's cuz they neglect like half the tree and half bake it, just look at weapon specialist

instead of us having to cope with the old shitty tree

frank ether

or second at worst

I think current tree is pretty decent

frank ether
#

having your talent tree reworked every month is not a good thing lmao

versed merlin
#

yeah i want martyrdom vet

bitter turtle
#

At least they realize born leader is useless

devout comet
#

Imagine making a skill that gives you tons of reduant crit and having it only apply to the first shot only

bitter turtle
#

They put it on the same line as suppression boost

tall torrent
#

At least the current bottom half of the tree actually feels good to use

frank ether
#

except certain keystones

inland orchid

but yes

tall torrent
#

Bottom left pathing is very strong, would prefer marksman focus keystone got better for sure

serene sage
frank ether
#

I think the tree is better

celest vine
serene sage
#

cause the vet tree is really bloated

frank ether
#

I can now do a no keystone veteran better

bitter turtle
#

Marksman focus just needs a little better bonuses

serene sage
#

and vet are just ammo aura bot

bitter turtle
#

Maybe some crit

serene sage
#

so we should get compensated

bitter turtle
#

Idk

devout comet
#

Both left and right keystones are flawed tbh, left could work if it kept stacks regardless during ads

frank ether
#

issue is I'm still harassed into taking survivalist

bitter turtle
#

Left is fine at stacking though

#

It's easy to stack

serene sage
frank ether
#

because mr. 2ıqgunlugger thinks I'm obliged to feed him ammo

bitter turtle
#

Just kinda low reward

devout comet
#

right is a mess though despite the fix being so easy

serene sage

and if you headshot, it should reload your guns

cause ogryns have it

and we lost sustainted fire
