The amount of downs and deaths from friendly fire will match the 40k universe.
so BM + PC is best traits for powersword?
it wouldn't be as oppressive if there were other team-ammo things accessible to other classes
Always has been
giving everyone infinite toughness, nearly 50% more damage against marked targets and picking people up in like half a sec is so fun
You got power cycler yet?
but yeah i'll greed not taking ammo aura for fun if i can save a point
Just showing how much Psword im grinded
Or PC + sunder
is it worth grinding for t4 PC?
it really isnt
why are you keeping all of that
IM 17 PSWORD IN
THAT"S HOW FUCK I AM IN GRINDING IT
t4 PC is that good, just be lucky, don't be unlucky, skill issue
Reminding my luck fuckin suck
have people not tried the new shovel or whats going on
its literally better in every way
Powerswords are just overrated as hell but its easy to use so why not
I didn't pick Veteran to use a shovel
And yes I tried it, it's great
new shovels are fun, but it's not "literally" better
shovels don't kill 5 trash per swing
they stun and kill everything
my main reason for playing vet over zealot. If I wanted to melee I would go play VT2
Psword 6 feel harder than most weapon imo
I can't get it to properly charge / slide
ps6 is the easiest ps tho
good pswords kill hordes faster than they can run towards you
can the shovel hit the one-shot bp on bruisers
The "Charge" momentum stop is annoying
pswords have their weaknesses, but i don't think they're that bad
They were never bad, literally everyone would use them because they are effective against almost everything especially if there's someone else spacing for you
Chainsword XIII superiority
not without single target attacks
Honestly I've gone from vet-psyker-zel for the next month-vet-back to psyker
strikedowns
We're currently at psykers
if crit was swapped with mobility it would be a god roll wouldn't it
All the other vet melee are awesome in their own right
Yeah
i'm on the vet/zealot grindset after psyker
Because then you'd swap to surgi and flak
wait why flak?
I’d honestly use it anyway
honestly any melee is good on vet because we get insane dmg with melee for some reason
kinda funny
It's my pref
ah oke
It could literally be anything
After changing to carapace and unyielding
I love my le funny swords
i used to love cata swords but now i honestly dont even need to parry anything but a boss running at me
game is too ez
just repurpose them
the mk4 still owns
if they ever make maelstorm actually hard it will be the go to wep
my mk4 claw now deletes trash mobs a lot faster
I just use the shovel mk 3 and powersword number 3+3
There's almost no reason to use other PS besides 6
PC makes the PS feel so much better
You're doubling if not tripling your powered attacks so yes
Its practically mandatory on all PS, else you're better off using another weapon.
bolter + ps is just a classic
Got a Revolver with one modification left, and Speedload 3 and Point Blank 4. Should I replace one with Gloryhunter 4?
Is it me or this map is just cursed or something
I blame the bots
Walk into it, everyone just bad in general
since when do people kick others from heresy difficoulty
It just makes sense saddly
Unless they give longlas to zealot which

Melta is practically
A shotgun
For anti armour
Give it to zels then
What if they gave it to both of us

What's y'alls fav melee weps currently?
The trash-roll MKIV Chainsword that serves as my sole decent melee weapon because I blew all my money on getting a Columnus.
MK VII Shovel.
knife
anyone got a good veteran steam guide they could drop?
chainaxes and spike shovels
so versatile
I'd replace one with handcannon
Since you practically get up to 60% rending
Mg Ia Lasgun blessings/ perks to go for?
I also historically have bad luck with silo cluster pigs
The staircase at the very start that leads into that open area
With monstrosities on the stair case
Is just awful
Volkite would be so cool to get in game
They find an STC for a good one on tertium and put it into production
What even would be the point of volkite ?
Like what's the point
A one tap everything weapon ?
All those weapons listed and no one said power sword
Don't have hand Cannon yet unfortunately

Dumdum, infernus if boss damage
and other than infernus?
I might try out chaxe next, looks fun
ghost?
Hard to justify getting locked in place with the special though
Powersword cringe
it's so much better now that you can dodge cancel out of sawing if you get scared
Ghost if shooter clear, raking fire if sneaky, reassuringly accurate if toughness tanky
Which chaxe is better?
I love me power sword simple as
Only thing really important on laspistol is dumdum
they're both good now, but i think the new mk12 chainaxe is easier to use
sweep lights and sticky strikedown heavies
You run thrust right?
Thanks mate, will go dumdum + ghost then
how is Graia and Columnus Braced Autogun now after the patch? Are they worth using over Agripinaa?
I use Thunderous + Bloodletter, kills crushers in 1 revved heavy with perk, haven't checked without perk
And as usual, +maniac high priority, then +flak
Iirc agrip is the bad one now
Kinda in lore it was meant to be a heavy hitter that both the space marines and solar Auxilia used not usually a one tap but it would be pretty effective against the monsters and if they want to add more dangerous beastys it would be a good weapon to have
bloodletter ticks build brittleness stacks and amplify your sawing and bleed damage
It’s like the Melta but longer range
One of them is bad, two of them are great
wait, Agrip braced is bad now?
no, agri is still good
probably still the best because of its Stopping Power stat and +1 cleave mass
Yea usually that's where the run end
but graia and columnus are very solid now, nice to run with Onslaught
because poeple can't kite a chaos spawn
Kite? You mean hold Block and leap backwards away from the grab?
agri braced bullets still knock stuff down super easily too, while having slow recoil bloom
When I have managed to put together a proper melee weapon I kinda wanna give one of the Shotguns a try, anyone got time to give me a brief overview of which ones decent/good and how to set one up?
The grab bypass block, so you just block + dodge
Most of the attack are pretty simple as you can dodge them
Or just dont do anything in general
Stil no power Cycler
is it good ?
18 Psword in
Post power swords
Pretty sure it is much more violent than a melta and I personally also don't really see melta as a weapon that really fits the game, don't get me wrong I'd love to see a volkite weapon but I'd also love to see grav weapons

Yikes
That's so tragic
I think grav weapons fit less that meltas a melta is a more realistic weapon that we would see in the hands of guardsmen tbh
18 x 2k Plasteel
Jesus...
VI sword are better ?
You will get it eventually, keep up the grind
Generally es
Your suffering is making me clutch my autogun that much tighter.
so going for gun are not worth ?
Your christmas gift is a cycler 4 god roll ps6
I should focus on farming sword instead of weaponn
since its OP
Fair i was just thinking about weaponry that could be cool
Can I pass it off to Nahcies instead? Y'know in the spirit of the holidays and all?
Sure, go for it
neat
Had the same one forever
Found PC4 on a trash ps3 melk had
Extracted and slapped it on my power sword
Does it even need a nerf?
The ability to clean hordes are unparalleled imo
Shh it's totally balanced
It's actually really bad and deserves a buff
2 even
Like make it comedically large
Moonlight greatesord
very balans
That'll be the nerf, powercycler increases melee range of charged hits instead of allowing multiple uses

That would definitely be a hurtful nerf
Santa was kind to me :>
ah, perfection
I raised it from a wee grey
Hey, should i put rampage IV or BM III on my power sword
I've grown to love carapace+unyield more on my power sword
BM is the best choice, imo
yeah, gonna test this out and see if I need a bit more on carapace or unyield
BM does better if you just hit head
guys
BM provides far more mileage.
that's a heavy shovel
Two shot crusher bp is very nice, and unyield makes it a pretty decent bosser
is this good on a shovel?
That's like, a vet using an ogryn shovel
Mark IV or Mark III of the variant powerswords?
Which perks are real good on a gun?
I use mine for maniac horde clear
6
why is 6 better than 3?
Move set
Still amazing clear while having way better single target
I just slapped maniflak onto mine and called it a day
Is this good?
Because of the push attack
But the the shovel and sword do fight over my melee slot
You get access to a single target push attack against Cara/Flak
Then 2 light swing that is perfect horizontal +1 misaligned horizontal
Heavy swing that is “top down” against boss
Push attack into the strike down light is very good
Big deeps
Two shot hs anything except for bosses if you have bm and cara
question about the skill "field improvisation"
do you get grenades from every ammuntion box?
i thought it was just crates
Just the deployable crates
But field improv applies to all teammates as long as there's a vet on the team that has it, as far as I know
nice, thanks for the info!
ayo?
any good steam guides you guys could recommend?
Until the vets get their own dedicated guid like psyker and ogryn, not really but asking around vet mains here in this chat about stuff.
and stay away from click baitey bullshit videos
How much damage does a crit do? Like is there a guide to figure out what numbers I could be hitting?
afaik unless the weapon has a dedicated crit damage or finesse stat the default is 25%
someone correct me if i'm wrong
Is that crit chance or crit damage?
I'm trying to figure out damage, I just put Gets Hot on a plasma gun and I'm trying to figure out what number I might see
Crit damage
Cool, thanks
Check the damage tables always
Yeah, I just don't see it when inspecting the plasma
Nothing about crit under damage on Plasma
And it has a 50% bonus iirc, though that might not be the exact number
Braced autoguns also don't but they'll have a bonus that's like 10% or lower even, idre
Plasma is like, 25%
Is it 25? Been a while
Crit additional bonus is about 25% more damage. Same for headshot (plasma)
I'm pretty sure what you're thinking of is the default multiplier for hitting a weakspot, finesse is its own damage multiplier also applied on weakspot hits
Ah you right
So weapons without a finesse stat probably dont benefit from finesse damage and only benefit from weakspot damage
Not to be confused with the finesse gained from the Focus keystone
Weakspot + finesse + crit = instakilling crusher on heresy
ppl care about heresy bp?
Heresy is that thing you play when you dont want to wait for damnation queue times 
Found the australian
I'd rather solo damnation
bots are gonna beat heresy teammates anyhow
they can kill ragers
9/10 times I queue for aurics I have to wait the full matchmake search time before it throws me in a lobby by myself
At this point I just do normal damnation so I don't gotta wait all day for a match with humans
Found the other australian
Yeah it's region based
APAC region amiright ?
Watching my teammates pov is always interesting
I have a psyker who refuses to use smite on the big horde with crushers in it that's pressuring him and another teammate
And a veteran who uses heavies on the ps6
I never criticize them cuz am dead
Also the psyker won't use the sword special on his deimos
I only give friendly advice on occasion
I dont, i only tell what patrol guard me
I died from a trapper not getting staggered from me stabbing it in the chest
Or "dont rez on fire plz"
I once got trapped cuz chsword special doesnt stun
hyperarmor trapper 
Trapper bullshit is basically the only thing that downs me anymore
That and sudden mystery hitbox sliding overheads
Trapper threat level is like the bell curve meme
this + teammate who won't spend 0.5s to pick you up
and will leave you on the floor to keep swinging their sword
run ender right there
Open net to free player, trapper gets to experience the Chicago lifestyle
And then sometimes they do revive you just in time to catch that mauler overhead
merry christmas, soldiers
My favorite is when the projectile visibly misses me but then I get magnetized to it
tbh, dogs a re a bigger threat just for how buggy and bullshit their animations are
Just gotta listen to that souund
Which... sometimes is buggy

this is hearbreakingly close to greatness
I haven't personally had problems with dogs, more flamers that I couldn't hear the warning of
that first target does kind of hurt i agree
Its not the sound. I can see them, i can see them doing a leap, i dodge and then they lock onto me like a crusher wanting to ruin my run
😌
it's definitely trappers for me (i am on the far left end of the bell curve)
very solid, Fullbore to use with slug shots, Flak + Unarmored are relevant but Unarmored can be Maniac
not sure if Maniac is necessary to 1-slug flamers in the head
have you noticed bash input not working properly on some foes lately?
is it just me?
but definitely helps on dreg ragers or using normal shells in a pinch
I struggle with trappers, dogs getting hit and not being staggered
also sometimes I'll have to push a burster 3 times for it to react
my character has skill issues
Finally took the jump to T5
Even when told otherwise, I expected worse
Allies still kinda dogshit
auric 5?
Nah, normal
mm allies dont get better till you play aurics and even then its a dice roll
its literally dependant on the alignment of the planet

If you want to win consistently
no I'm not joking certain hours get better players lmao
Make friendsp
I play with a friend so he covers my back and I his
also this
I know being social is big scary
but it does wonders for your winrate
but the other 2 are at the whims of Tzeentch
And goddamn, I have no idea how you guys use Autoguns without Exec Stance
The spread is ridiculous
I use autoguns so I don't need exec lol
I just, get so much spread on them, that only way I can aim comfortably is with Exec Stance
But I ain't gonna use that on a T5 lmao
the other two abilities are consistently better at carrying random teams
can helbore use Deadshot?
Yes
Nice
yes but I advice you to not do it
Awww yeah, its all coming together.
Infiltrate is carry hours
25% crit chance is dope xD
You've been playing heresy this whole time?
so is having stamina to sprint though
Bash as in the push?
yea
Yep, 
Not for a lack of skill, but for a lack of just motivation.
Friend got bored of T4 though
So we ended up going fuck it
if you told me so I would play damnation with you
I've been noticing how not a lot of people use the boltgun
But my problem still remains that I like no gun
Everything feels wrong for some reason or another
Brain issue oh well
Ehh, in my case is the same reason as Helbore
the time to pull is

plasma feels pretty right
Plasma feels good, but my compulsive reload habits curse me 
I can sort of understand that it takes a hot minute to pull it out, though it does make sense why
Been awhile since I played Arma 3 or any tac shooter so I slipped back into arcade habits
Second of breathing
Reload
Yeah, but in Bolter case
the amount of ammo and reload time
for the damage?
ehhh, I don't consider worth the tradeoff
just think of your plasma vent as a quick reload, you only have 2 "magazine" in a plasma anyway
I don't necessarily have the problem with the reload much but then again I pay attention to the reload stat
Would need to roll a good one
and oh boi
When did Fatshark came from the vacations?
They have a mandatory 25 day minimum vacation.
Yeah unless the burster is agro onto you
Just 0 reaction
I kinda wished FS would make it so they just stagger from any shoves
Mhmm, but didn't remember when it was
The first tiiiime
best part is last time this happened someone told me I need to be burster trained

Me as I go galaxy brain, go infiltrate as soon as I hear the pox burster
Find it
Shove it
Nothing
Regular t5 is pretty easy, also way more efficient for materials and coins
Mhmm, noticed already
I actually found regular t5 easier for leveling than t4
I always advise a switch to damnation as soon as the difficulty becomes manageable for someone
I just want the scion helmet
My work is done for today
ANYTHING
Shame they are gonna go pay a 1/4 of the game for it
Hope yall good in vet chat
I mean I gave up my soul and got
ALL the Krieg stuff

Seems to have been working for me, but I rarely push as I play ogryn and zealot mostly now
So, they actually arm the bomb shortly before jumping. If you push it too early, it won’t have it armed yet.
At best, I may think of it if the Hellgun design is added alongside and is well done
Yeah I knoow
I just wished they
Fell over
When I shove them while in infil
They need to just fall over if I push them
banger game 👍
does deadshot deactivate if I run out of stamina?
so true i shouldve spawn more bosses
unfortunately no
oih
yes
run stamina curios as a fix
if you run 2x3stamina you would have it actiave almost always when ADSing
3x3stamina means turn your brain off
there are +3 staminas
it's rare but not that rare
you will need to check the brunt shop often though
what level do you have to be to get transcendent gear?
not sure any of this is better than my voice of command plasma gun build lol
(using a helbore rn)
Once you get to zero, you don't get any effect, but it will keep draining your stamina.
All I want for Christmas is my plasma gun is to work, every time I want to play I remember that bug has been in the game for a month and FS has not even acknowledged it afaik
And all I want for Christmas is hellguns
Merry Christmas little one
how do I go about fixing this?
Just ask nicely
check mate 
Man, it IS a great christmas today
yes, this was our xmas present
Surprise! 
Should I replace Fire Frenzy with DumDum? or refine the other perk for Maniac damage?
Looks like the emperor delivered
ayo wtf guys look !
ah embed
ok nah this is funier corrupted
I cant wait for long cadian shocktrooper skin !
and huge-tall commissar hat
old news, we got them tempustus scion skins coming soon potentially. Or it will remain forever locked away, just out of grasp.
youll enjoy your nasty red skins without complaint!
this is a photoshop made by someone with the items recoloured with a mod
i like how no one knows you can transfer consumables. vet asks for ammo so i give him a crate to use if he needs it then he thinks it just disappeared 
Unironically the first time someone handed me an ammo crate I spent a good ten minutes or so being confused until I finally swapped it for a medkit I was trying to pick up and it threw me for such a loop.
Nahh AI director really has it out for you
😭
Try to make it to next area. Your teammates will respawn in different area.
Your priority is bugged dumdum>flak/maniac perks>second blessing
I'd do fire frenzy since deathspitter gives power, which gives both cleave and damage (and stagger)
Oh wait there's a tooltip on there that says that, whoops
I really hope alongside Hellgun

What Blessings are good with Agripinaa Infantry Autogun?
weapon customization mod rocks
power sword? nah
power saber? yeah.
Is scattershot worth milk dollars?
Wait, weapon customization?
Mod
any idea when we might get another story update?
Next year 😎
also another probs dumb question is it still possible to do the redacted penaces?
Yes.
what are the go to modifiers for executioners stance in yalls opinion
is there some kind of chart or spreadsheet somewhere of all the guns and marks and what their defining characteristics are like single shot, burst, full auto, torrent, etc. so I don't have to buy one of each, because just looking at brunts armory doesn't give much useful info, you can't inspect a type before buying it
gotta get a premade squad and do private game but you can get them still
refresh on highlighted kill and highlight shooters
^Never leave home without it.
absolutely those 2.
you reckon if they got rid of the radius nerf for the rez shout talent itd make it useable? or is the doubled cooldown still too much
Yeah, I don’t think most people would take it still
what do you think would make it a viable talent, or is it a noob trap by design
Being able to aggressively push every 30 seconds (at most) is just too valuable to give up
why not the highlight for whole team?
they're already shooting at em, plus it means you now have competition for refreshing the timer
Rez probably needs some other kind of downside, but for the life of me, I can’t think of one
Because them shooting your highlighted targets doesn't count for your refresh.
maybe make it so its just the radius nerf, but then itd just be strong. idk either
what is preferd meele weapon for horde clear?
oh god take your pick theres a few options. power swords a classic as long as you have power cycler 4, chainswords with a cleave blessing are also good. im running the new chain axe with power on hit/kill blessings and that just goes through hordes with left click spam and melee specialist attack speed
Im a chainsword enjoyer personally
new knifes surprisingly good at is
i have been chain sword for ever, just making sure i am not gimping myself with it
thanks for advice
Devil Claw 4 with Rampage is my go to
Light > Heavy > repeat
I actually can’t remember the mk1’s moveset lul
Been ages since I’ve used it
game gave me one with t4 hammerblow and t3 shred is all
wondering if its worth changing the perks around and using it
?
just dont forget 
Bind mark to a mouse thumb button and get into the habit of pressing it nonstop
If a plugin did it for you, random stuff would keep getting pinged and it would both be obnoxious and useless
its my mousewheel click, and i do it so much the game will often just ping the spot im tryign to scan for enemies
think it was u13 that made it so hitting ping twice quickly made it mark the spot
Mark target keystone be like
just general play lets be real
but focus target especially
nice found a surgical t4 blessing for Hadron to collect
lights are cleave/cleave/single target. heavys are double swing
Yeah it was u13, you can change your ping strings though
also check out this fucking bullshit brunt sold me
Mk1 moveset is prob fine then, just up to personal preference
i almost wanna upgrade it to see what it gets
Light > Light > block cancel > repeat
Oh the heavies are cleave
Yeah I’m not at home to check the combos lol
But yeah mk4 is the comfiest
yeah i just figured id ask since i got a semi decent one for end of mission
I can't tell if this was passive aggressive lmao but I'm aware of the tooltip that's why I was asking if it was better to replace for frenzy with DumDum
What should be changed ?
Both of the blessings
Not at all. I didn’t notice the tooltip, so my explanation of power was totally redundant and I looked goofy for not reading it before responding.
Savage Sweep and Rampage I recon
Yea.
Yeah, the perks are already good for horde clearing
I might be wrong, but you could try in Psykarium whether you can one shot scab that have the Flak Helmet
Mk4 also looks the coolest imo
What are some good blessings for Columnus? Making a stealth build for it.
Though mk6 is also cool because it’s a machete
Using a mk2 since it just overall looks and feels better
Got it, once I earn those blessings gonna try that.
This is also my current Columnus
raking fire
dum dum
raking fire col5 vs bosses is just
muuah
chefs kiss
especially discord moderator slime
Auric Mael
Damage are pretty good
Against boss, it's a breezy walk (I dont run KeyStone)
No worries lol gotta love the What in the Localization mod for clearer and more descriptive tooltips
Do you run Onslaught? The stacking brittleness does wonders against bosses and elites
if psykers are so smart why did i just watch one go an entire damnation w/o using the charged attack on the flame staff
lord on terra help me ive had 3 people today just casually walk up to a daemonhost and start attacking it
i know they're new and i dont hold it against them, its just its happened 3 times
Cowabunga it is
I don't actually
on the flip side, reminded myself why I like the vraks 7 so much
headshot deletion machine
Maybe when I got a better Columnus IAG
Anything that shoots fast with Onslaught is so cash
Still on da Psword Cycle Grind
okay im dumb, Onslaught is a talent not a blessing
Yes I do, Onslaught so My IAG can fuck up Crusher
My current build after people tell me to ignore determined
dont need it most of the time
eh, depends i've found
any situation where its useful you can just take cover
being able to counterfire against a gunner squad is nice
Also I spent one extra talent point to get this
we love watching zealots run ahead when we're already down a man to go for the rez while theres 10 ragers in the area
shooting in their general direction also makes them stop firing so its whatever really
Eehhhh, IAG supress them faster than them supressing me
^I too have found that the best solution to suppression is not a talent that renders you immunity, but dealing with it the same way you do snipers.
That is to say; AGGRESSIVE counter-fire.,
whats funny is the one on the right side where its 15% close damage is 10s
my eyes
That would mean that in the worst case scenario, your team has a 10% damage buff for 1/3 of the mission
so what
Pretty good damage boost
10 of the 30 seconds of VoC’s cooldown would be a 10% damage buff on everyone
Because that would be insane lol
redirect fire gives my team 12% damage the whole mission
just did a auric and my psyker set up his buff bar to show him the redirect fire stacks and he has 8 the whole mission
On top of the overtoughness VoC brings
with fire team thats another 5%
That would also be on top of Redirect Fire
17% damage buff on smite psyker the whole mission
all of a sudden he started to understand why he almost always has 1 mil dmg total every mission with me
The point being that it doesn’t need to be better than it already is
But sir... Smite Psyker dont do damage...
where is my vostroyan
the psyker after realising why he's been 2 shotting damn near every elite
And now you see why for the emperor doesn’t have a 10s duration
im setting up my bars so my buffs are big
so im always trying to keep it up
keep the stacks going
warmed up to smokes recently. its handy having a 'can you fuck off for 5 seconds' for reapers and gunners
smokes are good for stealth vet
cloak, run up to gunner stack, drop smoke and go to town
I don't really like middle keystone until Im into that assassination missions
quite strong especially on high intensity maps
just chuck em on the crowd near a chokepoitn and watch as the 8 reapers slowly walk up being unable to start fire
Smokes just need a little more utility to be a solid alternative to the other two nades
they just put out fire
Smokes pretty useful
Tired of everyone saying it don’t
thats all they need to do
Maybe make the smoke stagger enemies who walk through them
everyone hates smokes because it blocks everyones vision not just the enemy
smokes are already very good
honestly yeah, having snipers and bombers still being able to get you in them is a bit annoying, but bombers at least make sense 'oh smoke cloud? bet they're in there'
That's a valid reason to still hate smoke rn
They actually are pretty useful because enemies treat them like a solid wall
well they can.. eventually just need like a good 20 sec of running around before they do
Which makes them move around/through them in predictable patterns
being in the smoke and watching a trapper/flamer/dog just walk right up to you before they start the attack windup is funny
There's both a talent and blessing named onslaught
camo expert keystone is basically permasmoke if you keep killing specials
god i miss old camo expert
plastic chair in the middle of a storm vibes
i miss having the ammo passive being 40%
Old camo was funny
New camo (on the Marksman keystone) just gives you toughness regen
Low Profile at least gives you some of the old camo expert after leaving Infiltrate
god thats a fair point. making it so being in the smoke made your vision clearer would be a good change, just make it so you can tell when your still in the smoke so you dont think you're safe and tehn get gunned down
Or if it just looked like Bardin’s smokes from vt2
would be nice to have a clear 'this is smoked' without it being so damn hard to see sometimes/when fires going off
is the finesse a deal breaker? It looked so perfect other than its missing like .1 crit/weakpoint damage
thatd just be real nice to have. tell the bomber/flamer to go fuck off with that bullshit while also having an antigunner niche filled
being able to toss a smoke on a team mate who is being SMOUN KALL FER A BEUM??? spammed to revive them would be amazing
'ill flush em out' no u
does charge rate on plasma gun still affect damage or is that patched?
got patched recently
Scab Trapper wants to know your location
im trying ot think of one thats worse but no you're on the level, bombers are absolutely a high priority
trapper and flamer working together to instantly down a target with no counterplay because the trapper sounds got borked again
apperently i have some deluxe mega 1% rich people in the world headset beacause i can hear them every single time
even in the middle of waves
same, but thats because i know damn well trappers can be just as obnoxious as bombers, but thats why i went with the smokes, since they gotta walk up to you to do the windup now
if you play vet well specials will never really be a issue
i wish executioners stance was more usable
as it is now its just a drag to use
until your teamates walk at the special blocking your line of fire and eating all your shots X.X
shouts just too damn useful to not use
its both safe and useful
is there ever a vet game without a well meaning ogryn blocking your shots?
I dont say anything, because i know they mean well. but on the inside im seething
when its the zealot doing it for the 4th time though thatd justified rage lmao
ogryns are fine, big lads get a pass
No they dont
psykers....eeeeeh thin fucking ice but we'l see
They ate all my bullet
which uh chainsword do yall prefer Mk XIII or MK IV
they eat the bullet but then mark the next 3 big ammo bags as an apology
totally a meaningful buff from this node
Bring back Friendly Fire
thats 100% a 'oh look theyre swarming the boss ill help'
I want to shoot the ogryn

Between the other 2 keystones i feel like marksmans focus will benefit how i wanna play the most, but i find it hard to not move
to maintain the buff
Dude it would be so funny that Ogryn Fuck-All Nuke nuke us along with the entire horde
if we had friendly fire in this game, brauto and iag vets would be 100% constantly kicked
it seems too restricting for my tastes, been enjoying weapons specialist recently, but usually just go with maxing out focus target
tag keystone is pog
Im waiting for people to play Marksman Focus in Auric Mael
i think my humours fucking gone. im listening to a metal pipe version of metal mario from sm64
What weapons do yall like to pair with yalls revilvers i finally got a good one but cant really figure out what melee ro use
Honestly my favorite is when I'm pushing Heretics off me to pick up my teammate and all I hear behind me is "DID SOMEONE CALL FOR A BOOM?!!"
i hate the revolver meta so none
slug shotguns something i always end up going back to, as for melees, new knife and chain axe, but cant beat the classic pc4 mk6 power sword
just waiting for the game to hurry the fuck up and give me t4 fullbore/fire frenzy
You don't have to take a keystone, there's plenty of goodies elsewhere.
The stacks fall off 1 at a time though
yeah vets in a wierd 'keystones are nice but you dont NEED them'
Shout is literally SSSR-tier. Simple-Strong-Safe-&-Reliable.
focus targets just free damage, but the rest are definately gimmicky
Having to ping them all first is annoying for me
I could get around that with a macro
ive done it but its kinad meh
But then I'm spamming ping
been using weapons specialist for a while recently and its....the melee speed and dodge is definately noticable, but the ranged one is 'is this doing anything' or 'oh shit that just 2 shot something'
even without the keystone
I rarely ever ping things unless I can't personally deal with them
why
And this is pinging everything you're shooting at
its there for a reason
im the opposite lmao, probably from my WHC days but gotta tag everything
I want to see how people perform in regards to the keystone that's all tbh
spam that button
Same
i always ping stuff that im about to shoot, otherwise i miss all my shots 
its ok dmg but dogshit otherwise
There's numerous salty posts on the subreddit about people spamming ping
ping the gunner/sniper at a distance so i can see what im trying to hit with my slug
Which I suppose I could just ignore as it's not a "me" problem
Blinds Mousewheel Down to Ping
reddit. theres your problem
yep
id rather have ppl ping than not
especially if you get a sneaky trapper in there
I don't really ping a lot because Columnus IAG in my game just shred everything
It's more "fluctuating ping spam on everything in a horde that I'm shooting at"
oh man that 20% weakspot damage on C IAG is big upgrade to damage
i hear a trapper, im spamming the shit out of mark target in that general direction
Weakspot damage doesn't scale that well from what I heard
Might be wrong
30% weakspot damage if you're talking about the talent
Heard
im noticing a big difference personally
Yea.
Weakspot/crit damage only applies to the bonus damage from the weakspot hit/crit
things that would take half a mag to kill now only take like 15%
im still leveling though so maybe its effectiveness will drop off
id say thats a noticable change
So it's always way inferior to straight damage and can be more or less useful depending on the base finesse of the gun
Columnus is so busted that you could be playing Damnation at level 18 I argue
You're just forced to take Shout
should get a columnus going, but i like the agri shotgun too much
why do i have to take shout with C IAG?
and Yes
I still believe that Veteran have little toughness regeneration option compared to other class
oh theyre talking if you go damnation at level 18
who though that this was okay lmao
executioners is working fine
like, seriously
oh for sure
what the fuck is this
i wont play damn till im atleast level 25
who looked at this damage table and be like, yeah, good, ship it
i dont wanna be THAT guy going into damnation at 15
take a wild fucking guess
Not outrageous, ThunHammer?
no no its balanced now we nerfed carapace damage by 20%
guys...

im blind ok

but yeah those numbers are slightly fucked
i cant wait till they nerf revolver and all the meta players have to change
carapce damage doesn't matter becayse hand canon
Look, Revolver is balanced imo because how slow the reload is
plasma is the meta
pls no nerf cowboy revolver
god that would be the day
Plasma still exist meanwhile
normie revolver though, nerf that shit itl be funny
I play Zealot Revolver, Main complain is just no time to reload
Half my team can't function if I decided to, Yea you guys can deal with the trash
i wish we could blacklist low vision modifiers from quick play
The only time this ability work
'low vision modifier' time to make this everyones problem 'throws smoke'
yeah works wonders there
why would we, you're right. you can at least get a flashlight/fire nades to make lights out easier to see, fog is pain
except im playing zealot this time
Zealot still the best class imo
Best Keystone ever
(Martyrdom)

I have been running this build with my vet and no one can tell me this isn't the most fun build in the game
'oh no we have a knife zealot with loner and martyrdom, cant wait to see them run off 100m away and then get instantly hit by a poxhound'
big agree
Ew Knife Zealot
And I need a group of people to see it so maybe someone tries it
Thammer Marty is where its at
No offense to Knife player, but do you ever think about picking up that Plasteel on the ground
heard t hammer is a bit lackluster in this update, having avoided zealot for ages once i hit 30 on it, how true is it
You can't just speed thru the entire map and don't pick up
Plasteel 🤤
Dont believe what people say in Thammer, It still suck
you just need more effort to be able to one shot crushers with it
Why CC the trash when you can KILL the trash
and deal slight less damage to bosses
the thing about thammer is to melt bosses, not deal with hordes lol
fair enough. ill take your word for it. never really got into zealot, vet seems to be the one i sink all my time into
It's great against single target, but like 90% of the time, you're just not useful
It does have much better multi target with the charged heavy compared to crucis
Just take Heavy Evis at that point
pretty much
Don't steal my sentence
did try gun psyker and funny rock man but vet is th eone i come back to every time
Proper Response to your statement
perk and blessing for new chainsword?
Tbh get over it something is always gonna be meta
im not being THAT serious, calm down
i dont care that other people use it, thats their perogative, im just not interested in it
Check your DM's.
There’s a pipe bomb don’t
its too late, im already dead
what other perks and blessing? bloodletter?
i swear this chat is cursing me
once Wrath is secured, Rampage or Bloodletter, Shred is ok too
How well does the chainsword pair with the columnus or would the sapper shovel be better?
just got a low vision auric qp with 2 vets with the tag keystone competing with each other to see who spams ping the most and one of them had smoke nade 

what about perks? flak and maniac?
If it works
flak and your choice really, unyielding if running bloodletter for monstrosities
Tbh its more of a thing that irks me because i play fighting games alot and hearing people complain about top teir gets on my nerves
Like just pick a top teir get good with who you like or stop complaining
Dont have a chain axe for vet yet this is available from melk, decent?
thats suprisingly decent considering its from melk
though Idk breakpoints for the new chainaxe
Pretty good
Anything to change or just run it like it is for now
I wound change weakspot damage to maniac
Okay
Its gonna vary from build to build but chainaxe likes some power for breakpoints
question I been to afraid to ask. What's the difference between something that shoots bullets vs like a laz gun?
I prefer to run bullets but some vids I watch like laz guns or plama guns.
I'd change thunderous to thrust
which of these blessings do I take with cavalcade
It looks as if someone was throwing firecrackers on New Year's Eve.
heretics be like hahah get wombo combo'd nerd
Should had just push like what people here keep saying (skill issue)

Which blessings for the vraks 7?
Hell yeah
surgical/deadly
Surgical, like the one for helborne?
yes
Autopistol veteran
No survivalist
Clears melee chaffe with gun
Uses VOC maybe twice the whole game
Yep, it's quick play auric time
Different weapon lines have separate blessing pools, even for the same blessing.
I see
So you'd need to get it on the headhunters
honestly you could probably free up 2 points from the agile engagement and melee damage nodes what with weapon specialist
And this is what calls a high level of difficulty. 🙂
Can grenades crit?
I don't think so
Bummer. Curious if I could get crucial roulette to work on my grenade
I think that only works with guns
the good old days when it worked on your melee weapon
Do we only really like weapon specialist keystone on one shot guns that utilize the crit chance like revolvers, bolt guns, and plasma guns?
Except recon lasguns
not every melee needs attack speed
guess the build 
God when a weapon with 4% damage can out DPS a 80% damage recon lasgun
the 1-2-3 whatever points spent on weapon specialist can make your build so much better in other ways
or not
depends
every prayer is getting longer, the heretics are getting louder... when the stimms run out, time stops, and you're stuck in Tertium forever....
funny vietnam lasgun
Focus target build
Or whatever the piss mark is called
Yeah focus target
I i just feel like fire rate doesn’t really do much for a keystone effect, like it doesn’t justify it
I dont understand how plasma doesnt have higher weapon swap time
True
Fuck that was my first guess
You want the crit chance from the keystone
bleed knife is dogshit
I saw the plasma and thought (nah it's focus dumbass)
veteran's bleed talent is dogshit
it works really well for autoguns
synergizes great for onslaught too
Its REALLY good on brautos
like REALLY REALLY good on brautos
All I can say though is this: Whoever says veteran sucks is just bad at the game.
or let me put it this way

there is very little reason
not to go iag over braced for vet
but brauto also works ok
merry fkin christmas, melk!
nice one
Damnn
slurp that bm4
bout to transplant onto this
