it also keeps dumdums in your team alive

#

with shout yes

wise coral
#

bros what sort of blessings do you want on a chainsword

torn root
frank ether
#

I think you want something like rampage-savage sweep maybe? Thats what I have on mine

torn root
#

wrath and savage sweep are about the same on both, mainly because they already cleave 3 targets to activate rampage

#

on MK4 probably go for sweep tho, it's a bit better, on XIIIg you swing so fast neither matters

frank ether
#

I dont like new chsword

torn root
frank ether
#

feels like old one is better

#

its just all overheads

torn root
#

the new one?

#

its over head into vanguards

#

1 over head at the start of the chain

#

for heavies its 2 over heads into a heavy vanguard

#

shove into light 2x and heavy is all vanguard

#

having an over head chop as your first heavy is so good

#

only thing i wish fatshark would do is either make all shredders do a lot more damage through out the animation, or just shorten the animations for shredders by 25%

#

i hate the animations

#

1 shot bulwarks tho

#

well at least for me

wise coral
#

now why is the meat grinder spawning me with another weapon than the one I equipped, how am I to test out these swords

#

and thanks for the answers regarding blessings

frank ether
#

which is why I use chainaxe

#

light attack revs are fast

thick rose
torn root
#

legit make no sense

#

should be spread through out the entire animation almost evenly

wise coral
frank ether
#

Idk it wouldnt be a problem if it was faster

torn root
frank ether
#

I dont rly mind it as much as I used to

#

cause of shout

#

giving me room to rev

torn root
#

well thats on vet

frank ether
#

well zealot just stunlocks everything anyways

thick rose
torn root
#

the stun doesn't last that long imo, not from the dash

frank ether
#

Its enough to get a chainaxe light rev

#

which will nuke most stuff

#

heavy rev probably not long enough

#

but the idea is you want to abuse the downtime of carapace enemies / bosses

#

they'll have gaps between attacks where they basically self-stun

#

problem is other weapons don't have to deal with these rules and just get to spam attacks non stop lmao

torn root
#

i really dont know much about the axe yet

#

i usually collect blessings before using a weapon

frank ether
#

chainaxe is cool now

torn root
#

i only have head taker 4, literally nothing else

frank ether
#

headtaker 4 is good

#

thats one you'll want

#

I combine it with slaughterer

#

playstyle is very simple you just go on a killing spree

#

have both power blessings

#

which will ramp up your cleave to decent levels due to the sheer amount of power you have

torn root
#

the new one you said right|?

frank ether
#

oh I use the old one

#

but new is also ok

#

its just reverse attack pattern

#

old chaxe has revs on light, cleave on heavy

#

new chaxe has cleave lights, rev heavy

#

buy some grays and test it out you'll see what I mean

torn root
#

thunderous not worth?

frank ether
#

maybe on zealot? Idk I felt the need for more power on veteran

#

didnt rly give any other blessing combo a shot

torn root
#

the light attack on the new axe is similar to the new chainsword

#

i can get behind that

#

the heavy looks brutal

#

it revs!

#

why cant the chainsword rev on heavy?!?!?

frank ether
#

Idk

#

its unique to chainaxe

#

I guess the trade off is that

#

chaxe is slow

torn root
#

iight so i really need to know what's the difference between relentless and vanguard attacks

#

is it the amount of targets they hit?\

#

because it is NOT attack pattern or angle

hybrid token
#

just tried out Sunder in melee only and kinda like it

tiny summit
#

something like that but also one leans more damage and the other leans stagger

torn root
#

FATSHARK

#

EXPLAIN IT MAN

tiny summit
#

hit v and hover over the icons

#

the explaination is a vibe

torn root
#

the explaination is absolute shite

#

actually no its fair

#

ngl

#

it fair

#

relentless is just stagger, vanguard is damage

hybrid token
#

because its a general difference not an exact difference

torn root
#

but we like to just use words and not explain them

#

-fatshark

hybrid token
#

theyre explained as well as they can be

tiny summit
#

pretty much. Its just how the attack is kinda weighted. Relentless shovel heavies is why its a good "get the fuck off me" stick

torn root
#

ill give fatshark this and only this

hybrid token
#

every attack in the game functions differently in some way theres no single explanation that could categorise them

wanton dawn
torn root
#

perfectly categorizes it lmao

#

ngl

#

fatshark - 1

#

me - 0

hybrid token
#

not really

#

many strike downs cut an angle

#

many cut down

torn root
#

says a powerful attack targeting one enemy

#

im just aimed at the fact it actually gives you a damned number

hybrid token
#

strikedowns can still cleave

tiny summit
#

my chivalry gameplay paying off in darktide to get the most value of my attacks as possible

torn root
wanton dawn
#

I rate sunder above bm on melee only and twins specifically

torn root
#

pretty sure they dont without modifyers

hybrid token
#

sunder is nice coz its not just a cleave booster though

#

even though thats what it says

torn root
#

only time ive hit multiple targets with a strike is when sweep is active

hybrid token
#

now theres a tooltip that needs changing

wanton dawn
#

It is steroid cleave yeah

tiny summit
#

what does it specifically do?

torn root
tiny summit
#

I have a PS6 with Sunder and PC4

hybrid token
#

Sunder gives your cleave a minimum target cap i think

wanton dawn
#

400% cleave, 3 target minimum, not stopped by carapace or shield

hybrid token
#

so you will ALWAYS cleave through at least 3 enemies

#

even if there crushers

#

or shields

#

so you can go through like 4 crushers at once

torn root
wanton dawn
#

And since ps charged attack stagger everything bar crusher well

torn root
#

shit cleaves everything like butter

wanton dawn
#

It makes you safer

hybrid token
#

being able to cleave through bulwarks is nice to

tiny summit
#

only if if was powered up at all times. Starting to dislike powering up the sword when the base shovel and rashad just work but I will give it, it will mince crushers like nothing else

torn root
hybrid token
#

really annoying when you cant kill little guys coz theyre stood with Big Barry here

wanton dawn
#

I have video of manhandling of dozen of maulers, crushers, ragers allowed by sunder

torn root
#

ever get gunned down from stray bullets behind a phalanx?

#

shit is annoying lmao ngl

wanton dawn
#

Am very proud of my 30 flak ragers one whatthefuck_heresy

#

Probably possible with bm but 2 targets limitation would make it a pain in the butt

torn root
#

just learned you can animation cancle the powersword

frank ether
#

also twins fight enemies are tougher, BM doesnt do very well there

#

or maybe I'm dumb

hybrid token
#

behold, the veteran box.

wanton dawn
hybrid token
#

the little box next to it had a big bag to lol

strange sparrow
#

Anyone have a clip of rashad dealing with hordes

#

I don’t get how people use it great

wanton dawn
strange sparrow
#

It just feel like a vertical swing spam weapon that have no cleave?

wanton dawn
#

Push atk maybe ?

strange sparrow
wanton dawn
#

Idk am a psword stan

torn root
#

are there any other weapon activations you can skip?

#

or just this sword?

strange sparrow
#

Trying to stop playing Psword because I hate weapon activation now

#

Just not fun

torn root
strange sparrow
#

Counter intuitive? I don’t like it

#

It’s great in killing

#

It’s just not suit what I want

torn root
#

aaah

wanton dawn
#

Well, i just dont think any other melee weapon has its sheer polyvalence and kill power. The only other melee i really enjoy on vet is bayonet.

torn root
#

well i love it because i found out it has guard cost discount on it

wanton dawn
#

And bayo is weaker mind you whatthefuck_heresy

strange sparrow
#

Maybe I just want something that is Devil Clas 4

#

But stronger

#

Without the parry

#

Good hordes killing power

wanton dawn
#

I might try a shovel someday

torn root
#

well that's not like devil's claw, but i like cleaving hoards

strange sparrow
torn root
#

evis is zealot

strange sparrow
#

C-sword sorry

torn root
#

uuuh

strange sparrow
#

Well I already played Zealot and Psyker

#

Zealot clearing power is always there

torn root
#

diagonal mostly

#

wait mk4 does horizontal

#

yeah

strange sparrow
#

Getting the fatigue from Psword because charging up just meh

torn root
#

use XIIIg

strange sparrow
#

Charge up -> brain rot -> dead

torn root
#

mash LMB till it doesn't lift anymore

thick rose
#

devilclaw gives me strength, like a samson!

umbral garnet
#

Nothing like cramping your finger pressing that LMB

hybrid token
#

when youre clutching with 3 men down and you can feel the eyes of 3 spectators on you

tepid solar
#

Can we get lasgun LMG for Veteran? Like the one that gunners have.

fossil basalt
#

Comminity manager said at one point that Vet collective desire for a hotshot volley gun as a lil treat has been fed back

#

And it's too early for words

#

I hope it does terrible damage to everything except monstrosities and makes the suppression stat of BrAutos running Terrifying Barrage look like pea shooters

bold sierra
#

I've seen nothing but Columnus inf auto vets lately, no problem with that in particular but ngl I'm starting to really miss when vets actually bring lasguns :\

#

it just looks and feel cooler

#

I do hope that Fatshark reworks Onslaught node so that it doesn't favor MOSTLY high RoF, high mag cap weapons

torn root
#

nothing cooler than melting the faces off your enemies

#

with a hail of bullets

bold sierra
#

idk, guardsmen with lasguns are cool

#

and thematic

torn root
#

they'll get used when fatshark makes then not feel so crappy

bold sierra
#

but I'd love it if Onslaught instead of 2.5 brittle 16 stacks, it's sth like....8 brttle 5 stacks

torn root
#

want my gun to feel like a gun

fleet garden
torn root
#

already dont like hot a laser would produce kick back

#

how

fleet garden
#

they added the recoil

bold sierra
fleet garden
#

because recoiless weapons in a game feel horrible to paly with

bold sierra
#

not kidding

torn root
#

🙂

fleet garden
#

lasers irl dont produce any recoil at all, railguns do but not lasers

torn root
#

i dont like laser weaponry in anything not even starwars

#

gunna be honest

#

railgun like things are cool 100%

#

lasers as weapons that fire off as projectiles is dumb

#

too dumb for me

fleet garden
#

ye I understand that but lasers dont have recoil normally

torn root
#

bolter it that heat tho

fleet garden
#

but playtesters said it felt bad to not have recoil

bold sierra
fleet garden
#

so fatshark added some recoil

fleet garden
bold sierra
#

plus I don't think it's LASER, it's probably akin to plasma if anything, it's just a nickname I believe

torn root
#

lmao like actually

bold sierra
#

they call the shots "lasbolts", not laser after all

torn root
#

there is no bolt part to the las bolt sadly

fleet garden
#

still, it felt bad without the recoil so idk

torn root
#

see BOLTERS

#

they shoot bolts

#

the explosive kind

#

grand design

#

iconic

#

beautiful

#

lasguns saw starwars and just had to do it

#

🙂

fleet garden
#

to me it does matter, like they can make it like irl lasers without recoil but ye I dont mind any really

torn root
#

make gun feel like gun

bold sierra
#

most advanced lasers in real life doesn't even explode on impact and it takes a while to burn through, and that's a GIGANTIC machine to do that. I think a small gun in 40k that's able to produce a "laser"-like shot that's probably somewhat stronger than what we have in real life would probably have some crazy mechanisms, eventho it's "simple" in 40k xD

torn root
#

more bolters

#

its iconic for a reason already

fleet garden
#

ye, we are in 40k so they are probably way higher powered than anything now

torn root
#

bolters are legit the peak of in hand artillery in the universe

#

40k*

bold sierra
#

ok so you just don't like lasguns, I see, that's fair but that's beside the point xD

torn root
#

that and they just feel like ass to play

#

imo*

#

Columnus tho

#

go brrr

#

and faces go drip

#

win

dusty sluice
#

whats the best cc shovel?

bold sierra
#

I would definitely like to see more...variations that people bring into mission, it's kinda...boring to see JUST columnus infs and revolvers xD

strange sparrow
torn root
bold sierra
torn root
#

and why try to be flavorful in a grindy ass game just to chance the fact that you could NOT get a good return for your investment in time

bold sierra
#

which I do understand, playing lasguns hurt my finger sometimes

torn root
#

fatshark COULD make more things viable, and they COULD make grinding a bit less worse

#

but lets be honest

torn root
#

not gunna happen

bold sierra
#

that's kinda a weird take

torn root
#

but thats literally why ppl would gravitate to what wins

bold sierra
#

game being grindy doesn't have to relate to wanting to have flavor :/

torn root
#

ppl rather win than see a 30 min L

bold sierra
#

I mean sure, but they still don't relate xD

torn root
#

in every game there is a meta

#

because winning is more fun than losing

#

in EVERY game you see more prevalent things for a reason

dusty sluice
strange sparrow
#

Not even “viable” imo

torn root
#

ppl who try to seperate enjoyment ratio to time played winning/ losing dont understand how player retention works and why balancing happens in games

strange sparrow
#

That whole family is fucked

#

Auto shredder got giga deletus

#

Kantrael just make me feel like I’m useless

torn root
#

you are bored of watching ppl have fun using a gun that feels better to use and probably IS better to use

strange sparrow
#

Hellbore promote a slower gameplay

bold sierra
fossil basalt
torn root
#

maybe dont be bored and just ignore what they have

#

lmao

bold sierra
#

simply afterthoughts

strange sparrow
torn root
#

when fatshark gets to it they'll get to it

strange sparrow
#

Especially because Columnus headshot multiplier (finesse weapon)

bold sierra
#

It also does come into account the fact that the vet tree probably still needs a bit of tweaking xD

torn root
#

so does ogryn

#

and psyker

fossil basalt
dusty sluice
fossil basalt
#

.meanwhile columb V will delete anything with dumdum

strange sparrow
#

Infernus is bad dps isn’t it

#

If you rely on burn to kill stuff

torn root
strange sparrow
#

Might as well kill it already

torn root
#

well almost everything else

bold sierra
fleet garden
#

make recon great again

fossil basalt
strange sparrow
#

So Crit burn?

dusty sluice
#

i see so many people using the recon

#

with Infernus

#

and often + cara damage fsr

torn root
#

in defense of prior comment i do too

#

but most ppl are newer to the game just trying stuff

fossil basalt
torn root
#

i dont think relying on a DoT is a good thing

fossil basalt
#

No, but relying on two for that beeg plague oggy will turn it into mush 😛

torn root
strange sparrow
dusty sluice
strange sparrow
#

You need to Crit to get infernus thou

torn root
#

DoTs are a bit of a weird concept in pve, especially when the director recently kinda hates players

fossil basalt
torn root
strange sparrow
#

For example, people that use shredder

torn root
#

its good for chaff

#

but not bosses

strange sparrow
#

Or psyker purg staff

bold sierra
barren cave
#

does onslaught apply to ranged?

bold sierra
#

yeah

#

it does

exotic drum
#

If its on a ranged weapon, yes.

#

Well, for Hellbores.

barren cave
#

onslaught the node

exotic drum
#

OH.

torn root
#

yes

exotic drum
torn root
#

onslaught talent applies to melee and ranged

barren cave
#

k, ty

exotic drum
#

Oh, well that is good to learn.

barren cave
#

also, how much does krak suffer without the 50% dmg boost talent

strange sparrow
#

Nothing

#

50% is for boss only

torn root
#

^

strange sparrow
#

Because nothing survive except nurgle blessing Cara/bulwark

exotic drum
#

Well shit, I'm learning a lot today and I've been here for 5 minutes.

fossil basalt
#

This is the number crunch channel

bold sierra
#

I do hope FS will rework Onslaught after the holiday, make it apply higher %brittle and less max stacks, would really help with a lot more weapons, instead of just stuff like Columnus inf auto xD. Maybe instead of 2.5 brittle 16 stacks, it's 8 brittle 5 stacks.

exotic drum
#

sweat I assumed this was the Veteran help channel.

torn root
#

numbers help

exotic drum
#

That is fair.

torn root
#

even though none of us have used any

#

weird

strange sparrow
#

Burn damage caps out at 200 damage on Unyielding

#

I don’t think that’s great damage

#

Also you can reach 300 damage DOTS with unyielding too it seem

#

15 stacks = 300 DoTs

torn root
exotic drum
#

Hey man, if you know what names equal what numbers and you can Name your Darktide Math, then I guess you're alright

torn root
#

rending as a start/keyword is REALLY bad, brittleness from onslaught is okay because it's specifically meant for rapid fire/rapid hit weapons

bold sierra
torn root
strange sparrow
#

Single shot weapon are already good in Cara category though

torn root
#

they could just make 2 of the crappy rending nodes better

strange sparrow
#

For example HellBore

dusty sluice
strange sparrow
#

60% against Cara

torn root
#

armour lowers damage for smaller intervals way more than it does for bigger numbers

strange sparrow
#

It doesn’t benefit them a lot, maybe vraks headhunter

bold sierra
strange sparrow
#

And with those weapon, just take Focus Fire

#

It help on so many breakpoint

torn root
strange sparrow
#

If they make shredder auto pistol better

torn root
#

im pretty sure the community isnt delusional to think that columnus is gunna stay this way for ever

#

it will get touched eventually lmao

strange sparrow
#

Or shotgun

#

Things that make you roleplay as CQB expert

exotic drum
# dusty sluice still need some help with this lol

I'm by no means an expert, but both of the new shovels have good crowd control. The MK3 Munitorum? Shovel? light attacks are more sweeping and crowd hitting. I use a MK7 Munitorum shovel and its the most like the Standard Issue shovel. Your heavies are going to be your crowd control and light attacks your single target. MK3 is opposite, lights are your sweeps, and heavies are your strikedowns.

bold sierra
#

I mean, buffing other nodes probably the best way to go

exotic drum
#

Plus they have the pick axe option as a backup, where the standard issue has a high stagger Jab.

bold sierra
#

I'm sure FS wouldn't just...buff Kantrael lasgun's dmg like...500%+, just cuz of that xD

torn root
#

idk if most guns are balanced

white minnow
#

they're all mostly comparatively balanced

#

it's not like patch 12 and before where most options were just balatantly worse than the top few

wanton dawn
#

I think iag columnus is the highest dps vet gun atm ?

bold sierra
#

they're balanced, if we don't take into account some of vet's skill nodes

white minnow
#

you can just pick a random gun and not be assblasted by your egregious choice of picking whatever seems neat

torn root
#

Columnus is just a dumb gun

wanton dawn
#

Plasma is not really "high" dps so

torn root
#

its still out dps a lot of guns with no points put into the tree

#

and on a grey

bold sierra
torn root
#

actually i dont think thats a bad thing lmao

bold sierra
#

and it has better recoil than Graia iag

torn root
#

a dps guns should dps now that i think of it

#

every gun doesnt have to match the dps of the one gun, whose job is literally that role

white minnow
#

mostly that the columnus' negatives (lower total base damage per mag, higher recoil, sharper falloff) don't really matter in a game where enemies come in waves and often up close to you

bold sierra
#

I don't mind, but the way it is now with Columnus iag, it's a bit TOO good at all ranges

languid estuary
#

which columnus are we talking about

strange sparrow
#

Columnus Mk V

torn root
bold sierra
white minnow
bold sierra
#

like unrealistically far xD

white minnow
#

numerical tweaks are good nuff

strange sparrow
#

Far shot also neutralise the damage drop off to certain extend

bold sierra
#

I think they should make the close range dmg multiplier on the Columner iag back to how it was...it BASICALLY has the same dmg as Graia's right now, dunno why they thought that was fine xD

torn root
#

i wouldnt mind seeing like a drop in RoF and mag size

#

tbh

bold sierra
#

Graia iag is basically just a slower and less ammo reserve Columnus iag

white minnow
#

i'd keep the high ADMs for the columnus frankly

torn root
#

idk about damage numbers right off the bat

wanton dawn
#

Tbf columnus iag might be good but it remain uncommon on auric maelstrom.

white minnow
#

the columnus does have the high mobility to incentivize you to run up

#

maybe nerf its close range ADMs

bold sierra
#

what's ADM?

strange sparrow
torn root
#

i dont think mobility on a gun that's meant for closer ranged engagment is bad

bold sierra
#

not familar with that term

thick rose
#

the more I play other classes the more I realize how good vet chat is OmegaGuardsmanHype

white minnow
#

armour damage modifiers

#

fatshark uses armour damage modifiers to affect damage falloff (a clearly good decision)

bold sierra
#

ic

wanton dawn
white minnow
#

it's really good for balance when things like rending affects a weapons performance at range :)

bold sierra
#

but yeah, i dont mind if Columnus iag has good close range DPS, but it'd be cool if the damage just goes to shit way more the further away the target is xD

#

I think it's only fair tbh

thick rose
#

I think I honestly prefer the agrip iag

white minnow
#

yeah nerfing the damage farther away might be the option to take

#

to really lean into the columnus's mobility advantage anyways

bold sierra
#

I prefer Agri on zealot way more

thick rose
#

I like charging around hipfiring agrip

bold sierra
#

Agri iag makes good use of Sustained Fire

thick rose
#

and saving stamina for some really concentrated dps with deadshot

wanton dawn
thick rose
#

I dunno

wanton dawn
#

And again, even columnus iag is still rare on top diff

torn root
white minnow
#

yeah i rarely see it on NA west

#

big sad

torn root
#

he lived so long XD

bold sierra
#

then again, I play in Asia 😐

#

ppl there are kinda weird

wanton dawn
#

Then revolver

#

Then any autogun

bold sierra
#

idk about the ranking of them, but I'll say they are the top 3

torn root
#

gunna go on a limb and say revolver and plasma need a nerf too

#

ngl

#

no king making

wanton dawn
#

Especially voc plasma is the new bolter vet at high diff

bold sierra
#

yeahhh....revolver and plasma probably need slight tweaks...tho I cant say in what

thick rose
#

you reckon revolver is that bad?

bold sierra
#

cuz they do be kinda dominant

thick rose
#

obviously its so good for some big guys but its so limited when you ahve lots of shooters

bold sierra
#

I dont like playing revolver, it's kinda a pain but yeah

wanton dawn
#

Plasma needs power mover from primary to charged shot

torn root
#

plasma needs a hit in charge rate and heat generated

#

im not arguing that

#

lmao

bold sierra
#

sounds fair ^

torn root
#

keep the damage reduce the spam

thick rose
#

just make it blowup on uncharged again >:)

torn root
#

not meant to be a spam weapon to begin with

bold sierra
#

wouldnt mind if they make it slower

#

I still play mostly Kantrael 1a and stance ult tho, cuz they just feel cool to me xD

#

in Aurics and stuff

torn root
#

revolver only think i can think off is probably finess nerf

strange sparrow
#

Tbh Aurics normal just pretty easy once you know VoC is disgusting

#

You don’t even need to min max I argue

bold sierra
#

Maelstroms too, but yeah

torn root
#

can agree

wanton dawn
#

I dunno i dont play "normal" auric

bold sierra
#

Aurics are basically the old Damnations before skill-tree now xD

ebon umbra
#

big sad if they nerf plasma dmg.

strange sparrow
#

Maelstroms have certain modifier that just make life hard

torn root
#

eeeh

ebon umbra
#

nerf ammo charge speed left click or whatever

strange sparrow
#

For example, sniper fest in some map

torn root
thick rose
#

the only big sad I have with IAGs is when snipers appear

strange sparrow
#

Nurgle blessings + waves of specialist + monstrosity

bold sierra
thick rose
#

man revolver is good against snipers 😮

torn root
thick rose
#

its like you cant miss them

ebon umbra
#

i wish i could play more auric and auric maestrom but ive just switched to reg damn quickplay for plasteel Sitgryn

torn root
#

long guns should be good for snipers

#

nerf it

strange sparrow
wanton dawn
bold sierra
thick rose
#

the hitbox with that thing is so big, just shoot your shot

torn root
#

oh i know how they can nerf revolver

strange sparrow
#

Play enough zealot revolver, the problem is hitting sniper that is at the end of the room

bold sierra
#

actually, wouldnt mind if they just nerf revolver's long range dmg-retention

torn root
#

reduce the magnetism

bold sierra
#

what's that

torn root
#

bullet magnetism

bold sierra
#

that's a thing??

thick rose
#

the revolver doesnt need you to be THAT accurate

torn root
#

for cowboy bills that like to hipfire

strange sparrow
thick rose
#

I dunno how it works in darktide but in COD for example (or destiny) different guns have different hitboxes

#

revolver gets headshots whne some guns would miss I think

wanton dawn
#

Revolver is generous

strange sparrow
#

Especially in longer room, they hide behind a piece of sheet metal

torn root
#

for the revolver

bold sierra
#

crazy

ebon umbra
#

fatshark called us bad

thick rose
#

That's a great plasma. Reroll the T1 Glory to a higher glory or to Blaze Away. The perks are good, you could roll one to a 25% or boost a damage that you want, carapace is a good choice if you hate crushers

how does volatile and blaze away stack up against each other for plasma guns?

trim steppe
# radiant plank how does volatile and blaze away stack up against each other for plasma guns?

I legitimately don't see a point in Volatile. You hardly ever use charged shots, so the uptime and usefulness is extremely low. Blaze away is great for spamming into clumps of armor like maulers and crushers. Its a solid pick. I still usually dont take it because I only use it during armor packs, and the rest of the time its a wasted slot. I like Gloryhunter for 100% uptime when I need a defensive boost

wanton dawn
tall torrent
trim steppe
#

I didn't know that. I still don't think I'll take it tho KEKW_ogryn

radiant plank
#

i can see the use case for gloryhunter since cooling down the plasma gun does take away toughness...

tall torrent
#

It’s not great but it’s not as bad as shattering impact for plasma anyway

wanton dawn
#

Blaze away and get hot are the best combo for huge dps spike on low to high heat

#

It is especially great on no ammo maelstrom

trim steppe
#

Yeah Blaze away and gets hot are the biggest dps spike when you want one. I still prefer gets hot and gloryhunter for a nice mix of dps boost + defensive boost, it feels more consistent to me

radiant plank
#

i guess i'll see which blessing i get sooner, since i have neither at the moment

trim steppe
#

Regardless, Gets Hot is universally the best blessing that you always want, the second blessing slot is just personal preference. I still think Shattering and Volatile are bad picks tho lol

radiant plank
#

i can freely swap between them in the future anyway

tall torrent
#

Volatile is an “at least it’s not shattering impact” pick

#

I personally think you can never really go wrong with elite

#

But the 2nd roll u could swap elite to flak if u wanted

#

To handle both ragers better

#

Crushers just don’t deal that much carapace dmg and a lot of the dmg comes from skullcrusher

It’s mainly a stagger-orientated horde brawl weapon

yeha agrip brauto is just too good

#

seems like so many of the columnus users are psykarnium mains.

#

afaik it doesnt shoot trough multiple targets

lofty lintel
#

Columnus brauto i assume

crisp rapids
#

def infantry autos those 2

lofty lintel
#

Columnus iag is one of the best

#

The brauto is ok

crisp rapids
#

i feel like it has excelent potential damage, but in game its a whole other story

lofty lintel
#

In game it shows

#

I have a friend i play with who almost exclusively uses the columnus mk5 and always gets top dps

#

Ive used it too it trivializes the game with the right build

crisp rapids
#

i dont doubt it can do good dps, i played with graia autos and can do similar dmg, a lot of this game is if u know when and where to shoot

#

but it feels like the dmg is a lot more finniky compared to a agrip brauto

lofty lintel
#

Not really just crit chance and it becomes the best

crisp rapids
#

deadshot

#

is a double edged sword

#

(and i fucking love it)

#

it the same stuff with a lot of psyker builds

in psykarnium u are reaching breakpoints etc etc etc

#

Just take stamina replenishment subnode from focus target

on game, its very very different

pastel geode

#

the horde clear of the agrip brauto + the stagger it provides is very very good

Honestly theres not really any difference columnus mk5 is a weapon that anybody can use and it just shreds absolutely everything

#

You dont use your ranged weapon for horde clear + stagger doesnt matter on ciag because everything dies in one burst

ammo ecconomy (when i played as a psyker) was awfull on a the amongus autogu

ragers and muties etc

#

since this is more less what you'll be hitting 90% of the time with a agrip brauto

#

manied and unyielding is ehough enough , so i much rather get flak and put all dmg on more less the "same" level.

#

unarmored is also not that bad. flak unarmored takes care of all shooters, which is pretty good sinec i am running executioner

#

running around gunninng down highlighted targets, is very much a free bird solo.

#

killzone seems weird to get if i depend on close range kills. but i actually do dig it.

the other option is fucking opening salvo and this isnt a crit weapon.
