is all im saying
Because pre-emptive push = they wont detonate
no, am saying that the gmae decided to troll me. and epxlode me at infinite range
oh true
like this video
Also, People who dont use purgatus/smite to chain-stagger bursters is funny

I just wish knock-back wasn't so...
Over-done with players, but fucking useless on enemies
Pewdiepie was right to hate the barrels
love it when a beast of nurgle blasts me into carajo land
at least 5 guys we fight
I think
Sounds accurate
should i trash this or is this good?
so...... toss?
ah
pretty sure you dont need any +toughness or toughness dam resistance to take a burster as long as you have VOC and full toughness (bit late on this subject) or 40-60 over toughness from zealot ult
so that means there is an actual total of toughness required
still
bout to find out
pretty good imo, swap ruthless for uncanny and crit dam for either maniac or carapace imo
very good
well no toughness curio makes some damage bleed through the bar
so that was settled pretty easy
actually no
No you don't need any because yellow Toughness somehow bypass the damage
it was something else
I did a 3x Hp curios instead
as long you have Yellow, it just work
thats what i thought would be the case
Went back to run +20% x3 curios with no toughness
Just VoC give enough Yellow to tank PoxBuster
well i think its just the overshield toughness is coded differently, it lets you tank crusher/mauler overheads as well
is invulnerability turned on
good point lol
fair i think i reset it earlier
any point of yellow toughness allows you to survive bursters
it's special-cased to be that way
do yall use an app to record those videos?
If it was no dmg should be applies even to toughness
i personally use OBS
wait can i not revive in here?!
creature spawner's invulnerability setting allows toughness damage but not health damage
it's only Will of the Emperor that protects against both toughness and health damage
how do i respawn XD
if you die, you die
LMAO LAME!
there's keybinds for healing yourself and helping yourself up though
NO revive option
assist doesnt work heal doesnt work that's funny
so i go back to my statement
with damage on
225 toughness is what it's looking like
somehow when it gets behind you it does damage tho
222 toughness with all the toughness resist nodes and still take full burster damage, 115 toughness +50 from VOC and only +5 toughness resist and im left with 0 toughness and full hp
225 + Iron Will*
total
only +5% reduction from the tree
so unless that 5% is really stopping me from taking damage idk man
this worth picking up from melk? even worth it vs kantreal?
Replace dmg vs specialist and hit n and run and its good to go
Get man stopper
For hit n run
you need deathspitter i would take it just for the blessing
Only a few special attacks have innate bleedthrough to health dmg. Meaning that if the attack reduces toughness to 0 but still has more dmg the remaining portion will go directly to your health
Sniper, crusher overhead,mauler overhead. Im not sure if burster goes through but from the sound of you guys it appeard the answer might be no.
In general when you take rsnged hits only toughness tskes dmg, then when 0 toughness your health takes dmg.
For melee its a bit more complicated. A percentage% of thr damage always bleeds through depending on your percentage of toughness at the time of getting hit.
So say you are 100% toughness 0% bleeds through to health dmg.
At 90% toughness its 10%
At 80% toughness its 20%
And so on
know all of that
thx :>
looking for the total toughness you need for it not to hit you through
with Iron Will*
pretty sure snipers dont have bleed through either
im sure you can block all the damage too
with enough res
melee kills 30
ranged kills 743
wdym
i had reset taking damage
but yeah snipers hav no innate bleed through
not sure where that got picked up from
even so it’s two good blessings on a shotgun. idk if they’re the best but they can’t be bad
wait so what toughness values do u need to have to tank burster and sniper (with only IW)
there it is
Burster 100% 225
I have IW and the +5% toughness damage res
I think its commissar build time
ok
so 225 toughness to tank burster
what abt sniper
might be lower. he just showed 165
any amount of toughness as long as you have the yellow overshield toughness
but that means i would have tanked it regarless without VoC?
oh ok lol
like i said i think the over toughness is coded special to be stupid
yellow toughnes sis nor real
it's specifically the yellow toughness that's protecting you
LITERALLY
die
live
i really don't understand how ppl can complain about survivng on this class then
but i think there might be a minimum amount of yellow toughness that you need to tank it, since I was taking damage with only 4 yellow toughness against a burster
at least in the psykh
because their toughness dips slightly below the iron will thingy
does that over toughness have the same mechanic as regular toughness, so you get 80% dr or whatever when it breaks
So outside of stamina regen and block efficiency
why is my heavy laspistol not getting the benifit from shock trooper
i see the ranged dr icon from buff hud improvements when my overtoughness gets broken by a burster
yeah i think 2 pulsees from zealot ult (+40) would be enough to save you
so probably
most ppl take that
i dont care for 3.6 cdr
kind of a waste for 3 curio slots
I have a 20% sniper resist on my 21% health curio
The other two not sure which I wanna take yet
I like sniper/gunner res
toughness regen too
Gunner resist is nice but I feel like I don’t need more than one
but i only ever run 1
Cuz diminishing returns
Also considering 2hp + 1 x3 stam
Over 1hp + 1 x3 stam + 1 toughness
probably easiet to pulse twice and cancel out
20 overtoughness is enough to survive
One x3 stam is very good already
so either it's fairly generous for the flat amount you need, or it's based on the relative amount of overtoughness you have (relative to your max overtoughness)
i need 12 for deadshot
or something
minimum
For deadshot I could see triple x3 stam honestly
But I’m not the biggest fan of deadshot
Only run it for laspistol & revolver
maybe at the max value of whatever bonus toughness you have stops any 1 hit from bleeding?
Prob gonna try to roll another HP curio
140 toughness is not the worst thing in the world
that's base toughness brother
dont do it to yourself
get that protection XD
so true, protection is important
proof
My build rn is
+21% health, +3 stamina, +17% toughness
+12% block efficiency (x3)
+12% stamina regen (x3)
+20% sniper resist
+20% gunner resist
+5% toughness
Yea I just experienced it also
yeah shit, just Bonus Toughness is op
But if you don't have +50 VoC, you suffer HP damage somehow
If it's not full, you take dmg
that's fucking broken!
hmm i think it might be based on the relative amount of overtoughness you have
if i just had 20 max overtoughness out of 20, i could tank a burster
but 20 out of 100 max overtoughness made me take hp damage
its why i like to pop VOC when i see someone about to get recked by something or dont trust someone to push a burster
LMAO
Aw mang but I like giving people overtoughness with my shooty guy 
the KARMA!
Sigh
Unless u mean another type of crying
its probably something like you need full toughness + over toughness to tank things
crying that they can't survive shit
One of the best feeling things u can do on vet is to pop VoC immediately before a burster explodes on ur teammate and save them from all the unnecessary dmg
VoC is more broken than I though initially
so if you have 80 out of your 100 overshield you dont have FULL toughness
Oh lol big skill issue for those lads, I’ve saved broskis from bursters n such with a well timed shout
yes
I’m missing out on damage since I don’t got volleyfire but I’m ok with that
that full toughness thing applies to all of your tougness
The thing is Vet suffer if they dont take VoC
you can have 23 bonus toughness and chaff will start chipping you
It's pretty much forceful because Exec Stance don't do enough
Infil is too much talent point
Don’t do enough?
I’ve heard completely diff
Exec stance defenders are coping sorry
This gives me 171 toughness and 182 health
+25% Ranged Damage +25% Headshot damage doesn't improve your overall survivability
5 seconds to do 25% damage and have no survivability is just begging for hard mode for no reason
5Seconds of forceful ranged weapon
HELL ZEAH! Just take a LOOK on this Stats!
Swap to melee = L
now to see if hadron will show it mercy
i love exec stance, take mark all ranged enemies and reset on marked kill and you can keep it up for minutes at a time
Valid points, I’ll consider volleyfire for a few matches but I’ll stick to my usual VoC Nader vet
You could, if your team decided to cover you while you're in Range weapon
Thank u for ur knowledge gentlemen 
5 seconds is too short with the fact you can't swap weapon
use exec stance if you want
You could always refresh but if a mutant touch you or something hit you
it's goneee
im just saying after seeing that crusher clip no way am i having someone tell me its not the best of the best
Of course y’all ain’t ordering me “SWAP NOOOOW” lol
my other reason to take VoC is that nade regen is right above it
Just sayin u both made good points
Exec Stance is great for fun tbh, see everything and headshot tap everything
fun
But it require someone to babysit you tbh
Ya had lots of fun with exe stance before they made the talents into trees instead of pick one out of 3 every 5 levels
he means field improv
Now the question is
What’s the biggest difference between 171 toughness and 147 toughness
binch
Based IronWill
you could probably tank more gunner shot with 171 than 147
significantly more
Yea that’s what I’m thinking
I like using Executioner Stance to try killing ranged enemies, but yeah, I need someone watching my back so I don't get shanked, and I'm also having issues trying to get those headshots to kill quickly.
Maybe I wanna drop the x3 stamina
most of my builds always slide over to get those lol
Because Crusher Break your IronWill Threshold regardless alongside Bulwark
Smh
I feel that sentence error I mix up names too
171 Toughness (128 Breakpoint) while
147 (110 Breakpoint)
Big problem with VoC as I've seen it is that nobody actually uses it. They have it as their special ability, but I've seen Veterans shout all of twice in a match. I shout whenever there are enemies around and I have the ability, but I seem to be the rare exception.
i know its not used commonly but has anyone else got a triple revive with the VOC ability?
I snagged the “for the emperor” node so I feel more inclined to shout at hordes n such
No
Closest I’ve gotten was a double revive against twins
The thing about reviving is, your teammate need to be bad
Which is pretty rare
Like extremely bad
i did once and it felt pretty cool
Look, I already been doing like 800k damage
They can't suck that bad if there's no specialist
personally would never use that augment
Dope can’t wait to do my own 
To me, If you delete everything before those things get to your team, your team can't be that bad
wait you mean you all dont run +revive speed on all your curios 
I do, I love having an alt option if funny revive shout is on CD

and you're 4 in
about the damage imma be honest
It’s so fuckin fast
if you are doing 800k in a match someone or multiple ppl arent shooting dudes
love me maxed revive speed + leave no one behind
i always run stam regen, block efficiency and revive speed. i know theres better things but i like the safe revives
also use 2 +3 stams and a 21 health
people be like "ew knife and stealth" and then watch me slash at a horde a few times, kill the heavy units with bleed while I rez them, and then give them extra breathing space with a smoke nade
Well, indeed
funy thing is with fast revives you can get people up before a demon host kills them but it still kills them after the run away
God Emperor, WTF is this?
I like Sustained Fire + Dumdum
How does Sustained Fire works?
giving them false hope
Wait this is a thing?
only for 4 and 5 shot or what
I can
doesnt sustained only work for the FIRST 3rd and 4th shots, not every?
shoot, and then wait half a second for gun recoil to reset
it does not work if you keep firing
sustained only kicks in if you stop firing
Yes only First which is dumb
“I got ya I got ya-“ a second off
DH: Na, ima do my own thang
not a very good blessing
Salvo is every continuously fired shot until the weapon’s recoil sets back to default position before you fired
Sustained fire buffs the 3rd and 4th shot of every salvo
IMO they need to shorten the window for both the variants of salvo augmenters
They should set a limit to salvo
So every 10th shot it refresh making it workable
tbh
you should still totally have to pause firing, but the window is waaay to short in a realistic sense
i wish it were ever 4 bullets shot in succession
needs to be like 0.2s shorter
that is, if I shoot the entire magazine, only 2 bullets from it will be buffed for damage?
Such a bullshit
the only gun where opening salvo shines is, ironically, kan12 because it's already slow as f-
and even then it's still too long of a wait
I want auric Mael to have mission gone wrong moment map
Man, imagine a randomized map
Just have different ending
(Chaos Wastes FlashBack)
sustained fire is really only for dealing with weaker elite's /specials
i think
at least on the columnus a good chunk die fast because of the damage
Thing is Columnus doesn't benefit much from Sustained Fire
Because well... just 2 bullet having extra dmg doesn't goes that much better
only gun I've seen it work well on is a recon lasgun and we all know how those are doing rn
again i think the point of sustained fire is just for dealing with some specials the burst fire is really all it takes to kill specials, found my self pretty much burst firing to begin with when killing ragers, gunners, shotgunners etc.
What is the max toughness for Curios again
17
1 more 17% needed
duh?! why wouldn't it be 17 exactly
idk i just like the fast kill
(why did they make all the stats go to only 80%)
columnus?
in 2 years they will release red items, with stats that will go up to 100% 
so we will finally get the full 20% toughness curios
and 100% weapon stats
vermintide 2?
if they do that again but with this crafting system
I will call the Holy Inquisition on them
not really an if, tbh
more like Wind up Merchant ammirite
oh throne don't bring a bannergoat-type enemy here
randomized levels sounds amazing
For 6.99 you could also have your 100-100-100-100-100 Psword that we would probably nerf in the next patch
with the way the setting is
yeah I'm waiting for space hulk clearing update in the far future
going deeper and deeper into the hive
I just want Chaos Wastes Expansion on Darktide
Randomized Level, with different approach toward the missions
Missions have a randomized "Event"
Also please buff boss in this game
imagine
currently it's a joke and mauler have bigger threat than beast of nurgle
beast of nurgle with rampart
Nope, just nerf players
that's the FatShark way
it's j ust gonna be
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
looks at last talent update
shovel op
I will say Chaos wastes level 1 will suck
Imagine starting with 100 total modifier damage
can't nerf something without giving the players tools they can abuse, just so you can take it away

The beast of nurgle when you get eaten and the director sends in 3 hordes and 4 crushers
😌
It's frankly never the beast of nurgle alone it's everything else if someone get's grabbed and god forbid
You can't get them out
And completely invalidate every godroll item in the game rn
they will also slightly inflate the hp of all enemies so you need a red weapon to keep your killing breakpoints 
well, that’s why i like rapid fire weapons
another shot to kill is a mere drop in the bucket
Automatics always benefit from more deeps
Much easier to build for than worrying if your wep hits the next breakpoint
Wich gun?
The beast of nurgle after vomiting you straight into the daemonhost
gray lucius 1 lasgun
Id play the daemonhost gif emote but no nitro :)
Wow
The Damage on screen is more typical for infantry machine gun

dumb question. any veteran players also happen to be fellow vets too?
Who has a really stupid Krieg build?
Had one
With Bolter
but
nomore
Hopefully that never happens
Would rather red weapons (if ever) just get more perk & blessing options
Or in this case; shovel banging dirt muncher
Thank you very much
Thiss was from a few days back. I have a proper Mk II Helbore now.
you can also change marksman focus for 15% base elite dmg
Based 
not done vet for a while, is the ammo generation penance still not doable?
oh and use your special action from lucius 1 lasgun (stab) for monstrum https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1053823148048527440/1191057838957662338/1_wyrmwoodagent_gameplay.mp4?ex=65a40e0d&is=6591990d&hm=73c28e77f83ae0a10388174a7ad907f4794c44703d676e863ed2ca3f8d3fe632&
If you want to feel the real Stupidity of the absolute level,
Just start Playing Bolter
In only 1 hour you will already look like this
when plas pistol and bolt pistol
And jeah dude, I know what im talking ybout
ogryn
I was done it
Nah
Bolter Fan
Nice clip
I think this'll be my fifteenth Ia with a stat distro like this? lol
Trust me it took me a million dockets before I got a god roll 1a lasgun
I'm just trying to get Headhunter IV ;-;
Goddam, WTF is heppening here?
It’s fixed now
U mean the bayonet clip?
is that a 1 or 2
1 and 2 use the same bayonet
Yeah, was just curious which they were running in that match, is all
yes
wish autoguns were more viable in auric5
yknow, without converting teammate's tears into ammo
Look like it's Mk 1
Because the stud
Just run Survivalist and use melee
Well.. Ok, ok, I give this style of nobrain play 10 Ogrins of 5
Wdym
They are
The iags are extremely good atm
No he mean by ammo economy
do you mean good in a "youtube pog face" kind of way or, like, actually good
Also it’s great just ammo economy is bad though
I don't watch youtubers idk your lingo
It's legitimately a top weapon
Atm
Columnus is the most popular mark
But I use graia personally
They were buffed across the board in patch 14 and have been extremely good since then
You’re forced to take +30% total ammo, so ammo tin give you 100~ ish round
No you are nkt
Else, use melee
Ppl were doing columnus even when you couldn't reach ammo node
RIGHT?!
On patch 14 tree
idk, last i tried it in... like... a week or 2 ago? it was a lackluster. ammo econ is not great and ttk leaves me wanting
iag is a youtube word?
It has so much ammo you can literally spray anything
YER TROLLING!
Ammo economy isn’t great as I said
He said youtube pog face good
Columnus has better economy than plasma revolver
Idk what you mean
Is that the benchmark we’re using
It's not literally infinite like lasguns ig
Just relying on Survialist
I guess its not literally infinite
at this point i filter some memes out of my reading
But I don't pick up much

Every game
better for it, honestly lmao
If you run dry constantly on colu it's a skill issue genuinely
^
I even shoot hordes and still have spare lmao
you are talkling about not having ammo, don't
You run dry on Columnus because you're in Auric mael and the amount of enemy is
Yea, you will run into ammo economy problem
If you aint using melee for ez kills, youre wasting ammo
there's always survivalist
I only play auric maelstrom and I don't run into problems lol
i don't run out of ammo even when spamming into hordes
Play enough with it
I'm not the only kne
that alone will help conserve ammo
Search old discussions
i use columnus in auric
shouldnt auric mael be the place where you SHOULD be running into ammo issues anyways?
you arent running out of ammo
Good players in vet channel do not run out with column
I guess yall just shoot better
i can spray endlessly and still have 40% ammo like the entire run with the amount of specials that spawn
see i dunno if i can trust it all. everyone talkin the hot shit but actually dog ingame, hard to filter who's actually, like, legit lmao
the magic of survivalist
If your definition If good ammo economy is shocktrooper semi auto lasguns with infinite ammo like helbore that is fucked
its not shooting better, might just be killing stuff in less bullets
but you legit dont run out of ammo lmao
and IAGs in general
might be a discipline thing, don't just hold trigger and burn ammo when you killed a dude 12 bullets ago
You can search Columnus in the history
mm, i'll give it another go. viable to voice of command, or would you say stance is mandatory
Literally it's a commonly.discussed gun bc.its strong as fug atm
And easy to build
i like to go VoC since it's just nice for survivability
and nade regen/field improv is above VoC
Don't forget to take onslaught on right tre
i'll give it a shot, thanks chief.
So you can kill crushers
Tbh, Yall make me feel like im not playing Auric Mael
exe's stance nice but melee elite patrols can be problematic if i don't have nades up or VoC
even on no ammo pickup match, I need to reduces usage on Columnus
don't feel that way, you might be spraying OD tho
i think the lowest ive ended a mission with is with 200 in the bag
That's the thing, I don't spray too much in my game
The bad economy come from spraying down Waves
and each game, you are expected to do like 600+k damage overall
I think ur standards are just fucked
so I dont know
If good ammo economy is semi auto las
You do pick up ammo on column but it should not be significantly more than other players usually
And I paired it with a knife
So I actually had to shoot hordes lol
Back in p14
Without ammo node
Also hh autoguns are good too
Though less good than iag
here's what i'm rockin. any must-have talents other than +rending/+brittle-on-hit
idk about this one chief
lmao
Wdym
i think i misread it nvm
I just feel yall not playing Columnus aggressively enough to run into ammo problem, or just been using Psword too much
I run w/ shovel and top frag every game with iag cause it's braindead lol
well i dont only use the gun, sometimes gotta melee
Then again, I run Columnus like how I run Hellbore, Melee isn't required
and i use XIIIg more than powersword
like there are legit times where you DONT need to shoot
Not really, just pick up as much dmg as you can
It's a flexible gun
Left and middle keystone best for it
so you legit ARE wasting ammo when you don't need to be shooting
??
Iag have high finesse modifier
You don't actively rush gunners/flak and anything that hurt your team?
Do you run without surv?
I could see ammo problems if you do no surv columnus
I just don't know why you would
Then again you take Crits Columnus
Veteran without surv? Herecy
yeah no survivalist with columnus is begging for it
Which is another breed
Because not everything take 3 bullet to the head if you ain't running funny crit columnus
wish they'd rework vet auras -- surv too stronk
fair, might be slightly scewed
skewed*
im legit just geared to kill specials and elites, but its not the build i use 100% of the time
Hi everyone. New player here, trying to work out how much I donkeyed my talent tree up
its just i find it hard to actually hit 0 on that gun idk
its why i gush about it so much
is there an easy way to share my mess?
Each Tin give 106 if you took +25% total Ammo on Columnus
This is my graia tree
Should be fine with columnus
Better even
long shot helps kill specials too might be that if you arent running it too
it does reduce the shots needed for kills
ignoring the deadshot mess
you will actively find specials at that range in hordes
like actually
usually i ping through hordes and focus them
It's more toward reducing damage dropoff from distances
rather than actually reducing shots to kill thou since you be shooting from atleast 15m+ at them
My build revolves around just surviving because you be alone half the time trying to kill stuff before they reach team
Is it really 1% per meter after 8?
Yes I tested it
You could try it in Psykarium
Pog
Why krak
Bulwark killing
Why not just play infil
You're giving up half of what makes VOC good
Applying it to team
Shredder knockdown already let's you gun bulwark easily
Shredder does not knockdown bulwark if you don't time it correctly
Sounds like a
monstro modifier or maybe with a hellbore for some reason idk
You know that word
Yes and I won't be changing to Shredder
the fact that you need 3 to kill rager
instead of 2
skissue
but i almost always want shredders even then
shredders are so cute with tinkerer
just throw two and check your phone
I would rather believe people that Shredder because that save them one point
something like this, couldnt come up with a better way to show currently modding
Its the dot + stagger
instead of it being great
That krak doesn't get
Shredder only have 6m of knockback/stagger
Or I should say
Krak have 3m
is 2 too many
2 shredder delete horde
oh
Like people just keep saying hey Shredder is pretty good, but you could already be dealing with hordes with Psword
Ragers don't die on the spot yes but you can spray and wipe them out with minimal effort
And gonna apply dots to adds outside the horde
Why compare grenade killing power now
and Chainsword make quick work of Hordes
psword is a commitment and im flaky
Sorry I'm really hostile
Today
Shredders good
Atleast...
Upgraded
I like upgraded shredders
People keep saying Shredders good, but when I said that Shredders doesn't solve the problem in regards of stacked enemy
just toss more lmao
2 is the recommended amount
I guess
two tinkerer shredders and 12 gunners walk into a bar
I wouldn't personally throw 2 but I see why you would
none came out
shredders just soften up the horde
also Shredder Explosion damage fallout is just fucked tbh
500->100 because 1meter differences
what's the AoE on Frags?
especially when there are specials and elites when you toss 2 all you have to do is care about what survives
6 meter on knockdown 8 meter on shred
which probably have low health
you need to throw 2 shredders always
just let the nade do it
because 1 shredders doesn't have enough bleed for mixed hordes
Thanks Nahcies. I have been using Krak for the one shot power, but a lot of times they feel wasted
either the team kills the Crusher/Bulwark, or I miss my throw
i wish kraks were more consistent with clumped elite kills
ngl man i think you are too focused on killing ragers with shredders
How it feels to use Krak
- Throw Krak
- Stick onto High Value target
- Target instantly vaporizes
- Krak explodes and kills nothing
not even what they are for
People told me that Shredder kill ragers in 2 nade
Ye in mixed hoarde
you literally killed one earlier
YOU CAN AIM
...
WHY are you acting like you have dog shit aim
superior vet players use smoke nades anyways
???
lmao
I am getting confused
Explosion damage from Kraks drop from 500 (0m) -> 100 (1m) distances
if you cant see them how can they see you 😎
12 stacks of bleed does not kill a rager
smonk grenade
You could test it out yourself
does your smite psyker annoy you -> throw smoke while they are smiting and cause their FPS to drop with the added particles 
reloading the game...
Based
It doesn’t kill ragers, but it does a good chunk of damage to make them much easier to kill
I toss it in quick succession
That's exactly what im saying, you toss 2, it does not kill rager
Frags getting mass rager kills is usually because those ragers are getting hit while bleeding to death
and 1 frags damage is really pathetic
Slightly different story with tinkerer
so you need to quick throw 2-3 in quick succession
1 frag for stagger
2 frag for aoe dmg
It’s really simple and versatile
I never thought of frags as damage, basically firecrackers
People drop 2 frags to bleed a whole wave of enemies to death while hitting them with their weapons
I remember times when kids throw firecrackers as pranks
the little twisted ones?
It's great for Mixed Hordes, and Im not against that
WHY IS DARKTIDE NOT LOADING??!@
I take Kraks because it kill stuff I wouldn't have time to kill
If nobody on the team has enough dps to melt crushers and bulwarks, kraks are fine
It doesnt need to kill rager
Bulwarks is a special kind of case
But a lot of the times the targets die before kraks go off
Like
Ah I dunno chief
I think because now people have min maxed pguns so hard krak is like
Eh
ngl I am tempted to pick up plasmagun again since I have a hate train vs bulwarks
Like cool
Before we knew the tech yeah sure blowing up crushers was good
Now you just unload even before the krak goes off and welp
krak might be worse than smoke at that scenario

at least smoke disables ranged attacks except snipers
I dont know chief, yall take Shredder because you can't deal with hordes
🥹
I can deal with hordes
I take krak because I dont have time to deal with bulwark/Crusher
It helps
it's just that shrimple
i like my shredders for ragers since they really encroach onto your space
i take krak because I play bounty hunter style veteran.
at least you can dodge crushers/bulwarks more easily
i personally dont care about practicality, i just like to see the fear in crushers and bulwarks eyes when they realize that krak just stuck on to them 
I like shreddas because you do the funny ring spin
The only time I take Shredder is using gun that can't deal with hordes
How is hitting a bulwark on a the shield with a krak feel
Which mean I need to invest into doing stuff I can't
no?
krak when hit the shield it still kill bulwark
Yes?
it doesn't block krak
Dunno but the fuse timer for krak is so damn long
Oh
ye
Crazy
Shield
for people dont know Krak grenade have a TOO small effective area
must be some FS spaghetti code
but if u can make enemy stay same spot 1 krak can kill 6 crusher
....
I EVEN AIMED THE SECOND ONE POORLY
Das crazy
That’s just plain wrong & dumb lol
I just dont think krak is meta like it used to be
AIM
And shredders are more versatile
AIIIM
I tabbed out
i not use shredder because i can deal with horde easily [PRAISE THE SHOVEL]
but to who ever wants to believe and not understand i stil have to say it
Literally been telling you that you need the 500 damage from Shredder explosion
YOU CAN kill with 2 nades, just AIM
Krak was meta? I thought it was a popular choice since people hated bulwarks

to kill rager in 2 grenade
it doesnt invalidate it
and the damage drop off from 500 to 100 in 1 meter
Well I thought it was meta cause nobody knew the meta yet 
literally just requires player finesse
Kraks need 1 extra point of pathing and gets to remove fewer targets that generally could get melted by raw dps anyways
It does a major stagger....
Truth is There is no meta
Yes the vets grenade isn't an ogryn nuke
Fun fact, Shredder grenade is 6 meter knockback

Krak is 3
Even better, safe res for teammates
shredder nades culls waves and has more CC idk man
ah yes, shredder good because my teammate are bad
also shredda has faster grenade throwing speed since you already pull the pin when you pull it out
bro imma be honest
kraks are unneccesary
instead of destroying that crusher/bulwark
you have a gun to deal with it
that is half the room away
or better yet
?? you shoot columnus half a room away
man up and use a melee weapon
shredders give the entire team space by culling enemies

This frag slander is just plain cope lol
unironically a good reason
shouldnt even be focused on weather they can kill shit, its not the purpose for them
People take Shredder because they want to save 1 point and use plasma
Why am I shooting columnus at half a room away
Uh
still i think your grenade choice still prefer by your melee and ranged weapon option
Hard disagree
just use gun
Krak and pgun
Kinda suck
Pgun
Why not? It's a practice of controlling the recoil
Vs crusher
No that’s really not the case, you’re assuming way too much

yeah you can usually take care of ragers with the columnus, but sometimes they really do just jumpscare you
A bulwark
because you can, no reason not to
At half a room away
if i have a full mag, I can hipfire
but i'll get staggered during my reload a bunch
why use braincells when you have columnus
Or I just let the bulwark come to me 😌
so true
Prefer Agripinaa Brautos now
I’d consider kraks higher if the fuse timer was shorter with a little better AoE and better talent tree pathing
Love that csgo ak
This is the thing I want
Faster fuse after sticking would be lovely
nonstick should have longer fuse
Have it just blow bulwark to shreds 0.2s after it sticks, fuck it
If I’m taking kraks to remove bulwarks, I want that bulwark dead
Not wait 1s for it to blow
Kill 1 bulwark with a Krak, 3 more take its place

i don't like kraks i rather bait bulwark attacks and shoot some in the head
if u just let bulwark stack each other in same spot 1 krak can kill all of em
Also disregarding the fact that Kraks kill stacked 2+ bulwark/crusher instead of 1
though it do be risky because usually bulwarks are escorting a hoarde behind them
Hence it needs better AoE
The enemies need to be like
In kissing distance with each other
as long it is stacked stuff that is problematic
For krak to land a double kill
Also I mean taking 1 point for shredder aint true, cause most builds do VOC and focus target
So it would actually be better just to go krak
And middle
VoC is dummy OP
If they’re just a little further away, krak doesn’t 1 shot both
You missed out on survalist
for 5% damage aura
I only take krak for monstros
Fuck survivalist
but ok
If my load out can't handle monstro
The stun is very long with chained krak
Engage the Chaos Spawn in Glorious Melee
It do be like that

for my case if i meet many crusher or bulwark i throw to one then i go close to make other stand close. most of the time it not 1 kill per bomb
is that gun skin a mod?
Yea it's a mod
likely
But to me krak is like carapace on your gun
It handles a very narrow range of enemies
nice. I just got the Mez's mod pack and its kewl. haven't tried cosmetics yet. tyty
Imma be honest I think the mod is weird for the Agripinaa Brauto because at times you don't reload when pressing the reload or it's a client issue
And I would only take if in niche scenario
literally rather do this with bulwarks than use kraks in a horde, the nade could help get rid of pressure
Maybe... Buckshot Shotgun + Krak since Lawbringer is technically a mini Shredder

krak >>>>> shredder
Pretty much
but with a really slow reload
Hard disagree
90% the time it’s not nearly as good as frags
The other 10% it’s debatably better
Ya only time I bring krak on my current load out is v7 and shovel
Cause it's actual trash against monstro with that combo
Lol
But even then I still miss frag
I can see bringing Krak on those auric maelstrom where it's all maulers and crushers no shooters
reported
Its just better most of the time
ngl it's kinda weird you find yourself in situations where shredders feel more useful
You have stagger

Scab only no ammo? Frags are still better in that mode because you bleed mass ragers and maulers with substantial dps
When you die on auric maelstrom most of the time it's cause your team ran out of space
Guess which grenade make the most space lol
1 shredder bomb damage not enough to kill enemy that I want to kill fast
Still hope Smoke causes enemies to infight
you have 3 shredders and a damned shout like thats so much utility
most of the time u need 2 bomb to make it work
The only enemy in the game who doesn’t take heavy DoT is crusher because he’s carapace
Maulers are “flak enemy” with carapace head
like why go krak, for literally ONLY bulwarks
akshually is because i'm playing music and don't hear the conga line of trappers/bursters
You die on Auric because Bulwark and Crusher Squeezing your space to begin
or the usual crusher 5 stack
that's legit the only thing you need kraks for
It will bleed out most ads in a mob to five You spaace
Or the random dog
Every other weapon in your arsenal can be dealt rather quickly
Or trapper
WIt wait wait
nah you got a melee slot and gunslot/team for that
