so i changed it

low lava
#

Can support mouse bound slide

quick steeple
#

using mkIII or VII

low lava
#

Probably the biggest qol bind you can make

quick steeple
#

ah i had some weird dpi shif 3rd button i rebound on mine for this purpose, same other 2

torn root
#

all honesty having it on cntrl makes sense

#

i just got used to moving crouch to c for other games

#

control usually a bad key bind in games like CoD, Destiny and The Finals

#

but this game has more slides and sliding left and right with C is a nightmare

umbral scaffold
#

oh boy

torn root
ebon umbra
#

why is control bad for crouch? what finger do you use for c?

brazen bay
#

left index

torn root
#

cntrl is usually left pinky which is alsot the shift ser

#

user

low lava
#

Mouse side button, so you can hit sprint and crouch on 2 different hands

brazen bay
#

also who said ctrl is bad for crouch?

torn root
#

in other games it can get clunky because you are running 80% more

ebon umbra
#

sprint v crouch situation

#

gotcha

torn root
#

C crouching is just better usually

#

because we arent jumping like maniacs in other shooters

#

i dont have to release my run button

low lava
#

Lol

#

Quake boomers say otherwise

celest vine
ebon umbra
#

parkour vet is gaming tho

celest vine
#

So when we getting this ogryn boss

low lava
#

Not jumping like maniacs lmao

celest vine
#

Is we getting anotha plauge ogryn

ebon umbra
#

oh god that one is terrifying

low lava
#

Stormfiend clone basically

#

Wonder if itll have the weakspot on its back too

celest vine
#

Pretty sure the left arm are flamethrowers

torn root
#

Looks like an entity pulled from Warhammer fantasy

brazen bay
#

who needs to crouch anyway? if you aint running you aint fast and if you aint fast youre dead

celest vine
#

It has tanks on the back

torn root
#

drowned gunner

brazen bay
#

circle strafe on them heretics

celest vine
#

Adding a few pieces of jagged metal

low lava
#

Sprint and crouch gives you slide, goated mechanic in this game

celest vine
low lava
#

Welp lol

#

But no funi baby noises when you hit it

torn root
celest vine
#

Big flamethrower ogryn thing

torn root
#

watch me never pull it off when it matters tho

celest vine
#

Probably more cancer to fight than a chaos spawn

brazen bay
celest vine
#

Leak

#

Chaos spawn was found this same way

low lava
#

Stormfiend was always the easiest boss to fight in vt2 though

celest vine
#

And to he fair we dont really have a good shooting monstrosity

#

Scab captain doesnt count

low lava
#

Although i guess fire is more of a bitch in this game so it might be the most annoying one

brazen bay
#

well shit considering it has a big f off cannon for an arm, I am guessing it is going to be harder because im betting those rounds go boom and boom yeets you to the moon

low lava
#

Depends on if it spams melee at you if you engage it in melee

celest vine
#

Im pretty sure the stormfiend was a fire based boss right)

low lava
#

Yea but vt2 didnt have fire slowdown

quick steeple
#

possibility of corruption/pox type flames maybe? since theyre messing wiht the corruption gasses n bombs now

celest vine
#

Chaos spawns rock your game if you cant kill it quick enough

#

This would have bad area denial

#

Bomber on steroids

brazen bay
#

well that lines up actually buff the shit out of fire and release a boss not long after that is purely fire based sounds like a FS move

low lava
#

Maybe it might drop twins gas on you

celest vine
#

Gotta keep those blight grenades in use somehow

low lava
#

Instead of fire

quick steeple
celest vine
#

The gas bombs are just severed plauge heads too

quick steeple
#

yaknow... if vet smoke got the ability to clear CC in its radius it would actually be a way more unique pick

#

ala choke nades in hunt showdown

low lava
#

It would actually be pretty good lol

quick steeple
#

bruh...

brazen bay
quick steeple
#

BRUHH

celest vine
#

Maybe they can remove the chaos spawn and replace it with this ogryn

quick steeple
#

eactly

celest vine
#

Make the game more playable

low lava
#

Since it already doesnt do shit against snipers

celest vine
muted knot
quick steeple
low lava
#

Charge can be animation canceled by blocking animation > push stab

torn root
#

WHEN YOU GET GRABBED BY A CHAOS SWPAN INTO 2 POX BURSTERS

#

JUST FEELS NICE MAN!

#

FUCK!

brazen bay
#

prior to the fire update snipers were my biggest pain but they still annoy the shit out me with their ability to blast through a horde to hit you mean while most you can seemingly shoot through is a few even with high pen

torn root
celest vine
#

Its genuinly the most unfun fight in the entire game

brazen bay
# torn root FUCK!

if his throw animation wasnt so damn long it wouldnt be so bad, it feels like when he is throwing I have enough to time to make sandwhich and grab a drink

celest vine
#

Daemonhosts are better than it

ocean raptor
#

what weapons are good cause so far it seems all semi-auto suck

torn root
#

if you shove attack somewhere in the 1st 15 frames i think

brazen bay
#

and still be yeeted

torn root
#

you just removed 95% of the animation

torn root
#

then 2 posburstes ended me completely

celest vine
#

If the chaos spawn had about
50-75% of the health it has it would be fine

#

Shouldnt be the same 30k hitpoints as every other boss

brazen bay
torn root
#

i don;t dislike the spawn

#

only the grab

low lava
#

Spawn already has less hp

torn root
#

the only thing i dont like about it, but it IS fair

celest vine
#

Enable console commands and kill the chaos spawn

torn root
#

always nice when the 1st match you get ended because of director sending everything all at once when you have 2 bots

#

lmao

celest vine
ocean raptor
#

whats the diffrence in using a lasgun and a autogun? and which weapon is the best all round?

celest vine
#

Lasers and boolets

#

Lasguns are better

torn root
#

auto guns for ppl who want to win

#

🙂

#

jk

brazen bay
torn root
#

but the auto guns in general are braindead, columnus gunna get nerfed

brazen bay
#

but every weapon type has the same 3 sub cats slow but hits hard, fast but weak and the middle

celest vine
untold mulch
#

I personally think that at least to me the Autoguns perform noticiable better than lasguns

#

much to my pain Sitgryn

torn root
#

^

celest vine
#

Lasguns are better on ammo

junior needle
#

Autopistol is in the dumpster too, yeah

brazen bay
celest vine
#

Lets the veteran use other auras easier

low lava
#

Laspistol is what recon wants to be lol

celest vine
#

Just get shock trooper then boom youre personal ammo count is tood

untold mulch
#

Maybe because I ran scavenger

brazen bay
celest vine
torn root
ocean raptor
#

i find that lasguns have a hard time with hords. and this game is like 80% hords

untold mulch
celest vine
#

Not even a question

torn root
#

you can burn your ammo on columnus but it doesnt matter, the amount of kills you are getting while doing it

celest vine
#

Best ammo econonmy

#

Crit build? Congrats you dont need scavanger or any ammo pickups

brazen bay
celest vine
#

Crit build as in take deadshot

torn root
#

the other aura's are just tax when you dont want to go down left

junior needle
#

Infantry lasguns have good ammo economy with deadshot/shocktrooper, but their flak damage hurts me.

untold mulch
#

Imo, lasguns need something

celest vine
untold mulch
celest vine
#

Everyone else xan find their own ammo

untold mulch
#

Most common damage type

junior needle
#

You can't run infernus and onslaught on them to fix that anymore either

crisp rapids
#

i fucking love agrip mk8

#

just did 960k dmg

#

:XD:

ocean raptor
#

trying to choose one weapon out of the amount of weapons you can choose is so hard. i dont know their stats or what their good and bad at

celest vine
untold mulch
celest vine
#

Also yeah I can one hit headshot all ragers with the MG1aa

ocean raptor
#

Which gun is better mk1 infantry autogun vs MG XII infantry lasgun?

untold mulch
#

I am using the autoguns a lot more

torn root
#

its prefferance right there

celest vine
#

Or shoot hordes

#

MG12 is the best head clicking gun

brazen bay
#

the XII is great for popping heads on just about everything short of carpace

ocean raptor
#

I don't know. Both. Kinda suxks when your allies are running in front of your fire.

torn root
#

still irks my why laser weapons don;t have effectiveness on armour

torn root
#

you are shooting hot beams into metal sir

#

cook them alive

ocean raptor
#

Like taking out hords is important but my build is all about taking out the Elites asap

celest vine
#

Shock trooper lets you get away from needing the survivalist aura

brazen bay
celest vine
#

So you can say get two extra perk points

torn root
#

that's legit the only time i think it might not be worth

ocean raptor
#

Okay. Then what melee weapon is good for hords. Rn I'm using the mk5 combat axe

untold mulch
untold mulch
#

A Lasgun will kill anything in the galaxy

#

eventually

celest vine
#

Nah this works extremely well

#

Very very versitile

torn root
#

nah man

crisp rapids
#

is longshot worth it?

celest vine
trail ingot
#

why are all game lantern builds the og shovel and not the mun mk 7

torn root
celest vine
#

You dont need survivalist with lasguns as long as you run shock trooper

#

Fuck your team mates

#

They can take the ammo pickups

torn root
#

look at all the damage

obsidian kite
low lava
#

Outdated, most gamelantern builds are ass

celest vine
#

Youll be fine

brazen bay
#

beacue the only major diff between the shovels is the attack pattern

crisp rapids
#

uhh, longshot good?

#

or bad?

obsidian kite
#

longshot is good

celest vine
torn root
crisp rapids
#

yeha but i need 2 points to reach the 5% extra critchance

celest vine
#

Always take it

obsidian kite
#

but I think between longshot and having survivalist for the team, absolutely take survivalist

celest vine
torn root
#

survivalist is for the team but if we're being honest its just a selfish aura that just happens to help them

serene bough
#

But ET right after it is worth taking

torn root
#

happens pretty frequent

celest vine
#

Im not taking frags to help the psyker who refuses to use staff

torn root
#

1-20% damage at 8-29m

#

it's easy AF to use

celest vine
#

Its based on tsrget too

quick steeple
crisp rapids
#

huh

celest vine
#

If your target is far away from you its free damage

#

Even if a horde is on you

crisp rapids
#

well i am running a agirp mk1

#

can it get headhunter?

torn root
celest vine
#

That lets you one hit bodyshot snipers

torn root
#

unless you are running to melee

crisp rapids
#

i have dumdum, on it already

torn root
#

which is your fault

celest vine
#

Or the trapper and bomber

#

Like I said

#

Free damage

torn root
#

that and killzone turns off the moment something steps in close radius

#

longshot is more consistent

#

at all points of the game

celest vine
#

Take a breath is good for long range shootouts and clutching

#

Youll always be regenerating

torn root
#

^

celest vine
#

Even if you are taking active gunner damsge

quick steeple
torn root
#

catch a breath is good for kiting

crisp rapids
#

cana gripinaa mk1 ge theadhunter?

celest vine
#

Its a critical survival tool

#

Just as useful as iron wikk

#

Works evem if no allies is in coherency

white minnow
#

IAGs don't have headhunter

torn root
celest vine
#

Lasguns doo

torn root
quick steeple
#

killzone is meant to be an opener 100% not a mid horde buff

zinc sundial
#

Hey can i get some help making a sly marbo build rq

trail ingot
low lava
#

Mk3 psword and mk12 kantrael, the og build

celest vine
#

Still have mine

celest vine
#

Still use it

#

Its still very very strong

torn root
#

if the skill tree got rid of some of the fluff where we could have killzone and longshot, that would be nice ngl

#

but for now longshot being a 1 point investment is just too good

zinc sundial
#

Boltgun is still supreme btw

civic knot
celest vine
#

Krak for monstrosites, sword for hordes and crushers, lasgun for everything else

quick steeple

Killzone is just not that great ngl, wish it was 5m instead of 8m

trail ingot
civic knot
torn root
#

its just that having to go deep in the tree for killzone is just meh by that time you have other nodes you rather get with point investments at the end

celest vine

This more

Oh that's nice

superiority complex, more ammo. weakspot damage. bring it down, ONSLAUGHT

Ifs stupidly good with ammo

Its not going to happen

Its jover

Then take AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA and go into AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALTF F4

zinc sundial
#

I tried that but it didnt work

wind echo
zinc sundial
#

Which one

wind echo
#

knife

trail ingot
#

whats the meta shovel rn? the original? im finding the Mun mk 7 to be fantastic

zinc sundial
#

New knife or old knife

wind echo
#

new

wooden lotus
#

mk 3 shovel is my fav

zinc sundial
#

Got it with a decent roll

wooden lotus
#

new knife has better cleave but less strikedown heavies

#

still enough to be good enough for stuff like crushers

#

but its mostly preference

zinc sundial
#

Yeah i tested it in meat grinder

trail ingot
zinc sundial
#

My half ass build got some good damage

wind echo
#

wait

wooden lotus
#

mk 3 has the nuclear special swings but a good horde-clear moveset

wind echo
#

nvm

#

it’s not a knife

#

my bad

zinc sundial
#

I dont wanna use the catachan sword

#

Im going full knife

wind echo
#

k

wooden lotus
#

personally mk 6 power sword is still my baby

#

does all the things right

trail ingot
junior needle
#

Both knives seem to have the same amount of cleave on light attacks

#

Or at least not enough to make any difference to bruisers

zinc sundial
#

I think im gonna stick with mk6 then

#

Looks cooler

junior needle
#

If you're lightspamming, the 3 is technically better

zinc sundial
#

I wamt it more for killing big targets

junior needle
#

As the 3rd attack has increased damage

wooden lotus
#

the singular poke instead of more sweeps is the main thing on the 3 moveset that makes it have less cleave

junior needle
#

Then 3 is preferred as well for consistent heavy bonking

zinc sundial
#

True

junior needle
#

Yeah, heavies have actual cleave on the 6

zinc sundial
#

Hopefully i cam get a good roll without spensing everything

crisp rapids
#

what should i use for a crit agrip build?

wooden lotus
lime mesa
#

is 11% damage good ? i’ve never heard of it being this low so im kinda confused

zinc sundial
#

Bruh

#

Thats an insane roll

crisp rapids
lime mesa
crisp rapids
#

bad insane

#

lmao

#

u want dmg

zinc sundial
#

Bad

lime mesa
#

f

zinc sundial
#

Ive never seen damage that low

crisp rapids
#

still hilarious

#

do grab it and elave it in your inventory

#

some of those weapons are just fun to show

zinc sundial
#

If im doing this build would i still want focus fire

crisp rapids
lime mesa
#

lmao

main dock
umbral scaffold
#

Anyone know what the best mission for on overwatch would be?

zinc sundial
#

I got a pretty crazy boltgun the other day

zinc sundial
#

Thats where i got mine

main dock
#

You need to make sure you have a team where you let them know you're going for On Overwatch, and have someone watch your back for stragglers who like to fuck up your run

quick steeple
#

or, just keep turning around ever 2sec in paranoia lol

#

which is good to do anyway

main dock
#

That'll just end up with getting an axe in the spine from some asshole who slipped through the others, as is the way of On Overwatch...

zinc sundial
#

I found this thing

sharp ember
main dock
#

Is good thing

zinc sundial
#

Gloryhunter needs to be replaced with shattering impact but its still very good

sharp ember
#

surgical is a solid choice too

umbral scaffold
#

I think they patched the on overwatch disconnect trick

zinc sundial
#

True

umbral scaffold
#

Where u just dc at the end of a mission and rejoin

zinc sundial
#

I have surgical 4 banked rn

#

But i mostly use the gun for killing monsters

quick steeple
#

^ and reroll unyield to max or flack/carapace. can change as needed

lunar frost
zinc sundial
#

Usually kills bosses in 3 seconds tho

#

Does brittleness qork on bosses or only armored enemies

white minnow
#

brittleness/rending works on maniac/flak/carapace/unyielding

zinc sundial
#

So

quick steeple
zinc sundial
#

So ill kill bosses faster with it

#

Im also rockin a pretty good mk6 power sword but its not exactly what i want

quick steeple
zinc sundial
#

They are

quick steeple
#

prob take surgical primarily for ads 1hko on elites

zinc sundial
#

Surgical would make it more all rounded

quick steeple
#

shattering may be preferrable with those maxed perk rolls tho cause it might not matter much lol

zinc sundial
#

I already 1hko with headshots but thats only on heresy

#

True

#

I have shattering 3

#

Havent gotten lucky with 4

sharp ember
quick steeple
#

oh i was talking in terms of auric maels lol

zinc sundial
#

Ive been to scared to do auric yet

quick steeple
#

send tablez

zinc sundial
#

I dont have a team

#

Im ssing the table

#

Ngl rockin it in the free world with this boltgun

ebon umbra
#

im more of a sedition only recon 6d vanguard enthusiast +9 stamina guy

zinc sundial
#

Turns everything into paper

ebon umbra
#

tis a simple life

sharp ember
# zinc sundial

looks like your boltgun already does 100% damage against Unyielding, so brittleness will do virtually nothing for you

zinc sundial
sharp ember
#

it'll only improve your damage against carapace

zinc sundial
#

Alright

#

So what would be a good blessing to replace gloryhunter

#

I have surgical 4

sharp ember
#

Surgical is great for paced shots

zinc sundial
#

Really would only need it for ads

sharp ember
#

but if nothing else, you can upgrade Gloryhunter

#

Not sure if Cavalcade is any good

quick steeple
sharp ember
#

but it would work for magdumping

zinc sundial
quick steeple
crisp rapids
#

what am missing here?

#

surgical flak?

quick steeple
#

test it in damn in range

crisp rapids
#

headhunter flak?

#

what is the play for this bun?

sharp ember
#

headhunter flak, then it's a godroll

zinc sundial
sharp ember
#

surgical doesn't exist for kantrael sadly

quick steeple
crisp rapids
#

i dont have headhunter yet so i'll get get it

quick steeple
#

prob still a 2tap

zinc sundial
#

Can i change test a blessing without reblessing?

#

2 tap is awesome tho

quick steeple
zinc sundial
#

Is there really nothing better than

sharp ember
#

anything's better than Gloryhunter 1 lol

zinc sundial
#

I meant nothing better than surgical

crisp rapids
#

should i yeet this away?

zinc sundial
#

I 5 tap without surgical

quick steeple
crisp rapids
#

or noh?

zinc sundial
#

Ill run surg then

#

Ig i now own an insane godroll boltgun

quick steeple
torn root
zinc sundial
torn root
#

well aside from glory hunter

#

but thats easliy swapped

zinc sundial
#

Im swapping it rn

#

To surg 4

torn root
#

pinning fire/cavalcade + shattering impact

zinc sundial
#

I was told shattering is redundant for monsters

torn root
#

just not pinning fire stacks poorly on monsters

zinc sundial
#

If i fire 1 shot into a horde it maxes pinning fire

torn root
#

no rending still works on monsters ppl need to stop with that misinformation

zinc sundial
#

I have the perk for rending

torn root
#

its just not as effective as vs carapace

obsidian kite
#

wait, vs carapace for monsters?

quick steeple
torn root
#

everyone keeps saying its just effective on armour and refuse to listen that it just increases your multiplyer and aginst defence types by 10% literally what it does

obsidian kite
#

ah

torn root
#

if you have good damage against something then its less beneficial is all

#

10% better when you already do well isnt much of a diff vs 10% better when you need help killing something

zinc sundial
#

I have good damage against everything

celest vine
#

thats godly

#

headhunter and flak and you have the best set up

torn root
#

either way pinning fire + shattering impact or cavalcade + shattering impact, dont listen to anyone who tells you shattering is bad

#

there is surgcal that you can take on bolter too

zinc sundial
#

I 3-4 tapped the crusher with 5 stacks of pinning fire

torn root
#

should be the case

zinc sundial
#

On damn

#

Im stuck between shattering and surg tho

torn root
#

its a can opener when used on bulwarks too

zinc sundial
#

I know

#

Its awesome

#

Oh bruh

#

I forgot to use focus fire

#

Lets try now

quick steeple
#

well obv that changes things

zinc sundial
#

I wanna see my absolute max

#

Gonna use stim with ult and focus

#

2 tap

#

Without headshots

#

Alright so without min maxing im doing 2-3 shot kills on a crusher

torn root
#

do you have bring it down?

zinc sundial
#

Yes

torn root
#

hmm

zinc sundial
#

Ngl im missing the head a lot rn

#

But i did 2 tap to the body

torn root
#

2 tap is all that matters

#

but at base 2-3 shots is more than fine lmao

zinc sundial
#

3 tap without stacks of power

torn root
#

dont gotta push for better

zinc sundial
#

I want it to be better

torn root
#

3 bullets means 5 crushers per mag?

zinc sundial
#

Smth like that

#

My bullets go through crushers right

quick steeple
#

are you using the elite %dmg perks?/ogryn etc

zinc sundial
#

Not the elite but i am using the ogryn one

#

I xould get the elite tho

quick steeple
#

if you're running a std plasma VOC focus vet it should be accessible

#

and you'll want to 25% ammo on bolty

zinc sundial
#

I have a nice plasma but i dont prefer it anymore

#

Got that

#

I can show my tree

quick steeple
zinc sundial
#

Not that tree

#

Ngl my plas is a god roll

#

The perks arent great

quick steeple
#

gets hot is good

zinc sundial
#

Very good

quick steeple
#

thermal and reload is doodoo

zinc sundial
#

Yeah but thermal is fine since i need max heat

quick steeple
zinc sundial
#

I didnt even know

quick steeple
#

blaze takes 5 shots to ramp for 40%

#

plasma basically never charge it only hip

zinc sundial
#

Bruh

#

I only charge it

#

Lit playing the entire weapon wrong

obsidian kite
#

I was thinking about replacing gloryhunter with shattering impact. would it be better to replace with gets hot?

zinc sundial
umbral scaffold
#

Does anybody know which type of grenade works best for longbomb?

zinc sundial
#

Normal one

quick steeple
zinc sundial
#

I just went to meat grinder and found the angle amd kept tossing into hordes

obsidian kite
#

okay good to know, ty

zinc sundial
#

I want my krieger helm but i still need 18 matches

cerulean void
quick steeple
zinc sundial
#

I wish it was an actual challenge and not just a tine gate

quick steeple
#

or if you dont have a way to deal with carapace in the build rn

zinc sundial
#

What do yall think is the absolute best vet build rn

quick steeple
bitter turtle
#

Tho some would say focus target over wep

zinc sundial
#

Voc makes the others look bad

#

Wep spec is bad

obsidian kite
#

I like focus target a lot

zinc sundial
#

Focus target ftw

obsidian kite
#

focus target VoC plasma is definitely easy mode for veteran

quick steeple
#

spec isnt bad, bad players trying to be stealth ninjas are bad

bitter turtle
#

Wepspecial makes power sword nutty

#

Imo

wanton dawn
#

Plasma voc shredder focus can deal with all maelstrom, so it'd be the most polyvalent

obsidian kite
#

it makes the dodge not completely ass lol

zinc sundial
#

Its already nutty with power cycle

torn root
bitter turtle
#

Yes

bitter turtle
#

But 25 aspd psword

#

Is really good in pinches

zinc sundial
#

Power sword already swings wicked fast

bitter turtle
#

And the auto reload helps plasma

#

Imo It's better than focus

#

Not that focus is bad

wanton dawn
#

Auto reload plasma is qol

obsidian kite
#

I hope they buff smoke, it'd be fun if it was actually good

quick steeple
bitter turtle
zinc sundial
#

True

wanton dawn
#

Focus target plasma is better at boss

zinc sundial
#

Dont take nodes

quick steeple
zinc sundial
#

That would be cool ngl

#

Like a cleans grenade

obsidian kite
#

yes make it remove fire and make it actually stop snipers/shooters better

bitter turtle

Its just a nice bonus on top of making sword actually dumb

zinc sundial
#

What i like about vet is everything is viable

bitter turtle
#

Recon

zinc sundial
#

Exceot smoke

bitter turtle
#

Checkmate

zinc sundial
#

Recon used to be good

#

I think

torn root
#

recons are viable

zinc sundial
#

Didnt hotshot use recon

wanton dawn
#

Sure, but i rate highly being good at everything

obsidian kite
#

Recon las got nerfed into oblivion

bitter turtle
#

Viable like a grey gun

obsidian kite
#

f

torn root
#

idk what's up with ppl swinging around the word viable

zinc sundial
#

Grey gun is very good

torn root
#

everything in the damn game works, so its all 'viable'

bitter turtle
#

If u define viable as clearing auric mael

#

Grey guns are viable

#

Word becomes meaningless

torn root
#

so you mean to say META

bitter turtle
#

No

#

I think of it as a gun offering a significant niche

zinc sundial
#

I think ill do a wound build

bitter turtle
#

V7 isn't a top gun but it offers a significant niche

torn root
#

you can clear the game with greys so they are viable

bitter turtle
#

Recon has no real niche

#

It just suggs

zinc sundial
#

Max all my regen stuff and have all the wounds ever

torn root
#

opinions dont shape viability

#

just preference

zinc sundial
#

Viablity is shaped by opinion

quick steeple
# zinc sundial

go down the middle vs left 5% hp node so you get the additive +15 toughness

swap suppression for 15% elite on left

torn root
#

actually

bitter turtle
#

I don't feel like arguing semantics

torn root
#

something either WORKS

#

OR IT DOESNT

#

something working is not an opinion

zinc sundial
#

Name 1 thing that doesnt work

bitter turtle
#

Viability as defined by something that can clear a map just doesn't mean much in this game

#

Thats just imo

obsidian kite
#

oh is blaze away only level 3?

torn root
#

opinion

#

see

bitter turtle
#

Yes

torn root
#

thats the point

bitter turtle
#

In your opinion it's a good definition

#

In mine it is not

raw steppe
#

Viable in video game terms has warped over the years

bitter turtle
#

I don't want to argue semantics

raw steppe
#

And at this point means "strong"

bitter turtle
#

Nah

zinc sundial
#

Conversate semantics

torn root
#

not gunna but literally everything is viable

raw steppe
#

So if someone asks "is x viable"

bitter turtle
#

V7 is viable but I wouldn't call it strong

#

Its just decent

raw steppe
#

They're usually asking if its strong

torn root
raw steppe
#

And you say its ok

torn root
#

thats why balance exists

raw steppe
#

Or its good

#

Or nah it sucks

#

Theyre not asking a yes/no question

bitter turtle
#

Its a pve game so using a pvp definition of viable is iffy

torn root
#

thats a yes or no question

zinc sundial
#

I hope vet gets a melta

torn root
#

i can say yes

bitter turtle
#

There is very few pve games where not everything is viable

torn root
#

but imo

bitter turtle
#

If you use the pvp definition

raw steppe
#

Because this isnt a stat check game

torn root
#

tf are you on

quick steeple
torn root
#

someone can go in with all grey auris and win so it works lmao

#

how well it works is a diff question

zinc sundial
#

Heresy isnt that bad

raw steppe
#

Compared to a gacha for example where u cant clear x content if you dont have item level

zinc sundial
#

Damn is fun but i need to carry my baby friends

raw steppe
#

Most of the content is gated on player skill

#

Rather than gear

#

So in the context of dt

bitter turtle
zinc sundial
#

So now im a destroyer of worlds in malice

raw steppe
#

When someone asks "is x viable"

bitter turtle
#

Where you literally can't compete with some gear or chars

quick steeple
raw steppe
#

Theyre not asking if it can clear because every weapon can in the right hands

bitter turtle
#

Trying to transplant this into causal pve games

raw steppe
#

Theyre asking if its good or not

zinc sundial
#

I was running malice at 9

bitter turtle
#

Everything is viable in casual pve games almost always

zinc sundial
#

They kept dying so we had to pkay desition

quick steeple
torn root
zinc sundial
#

Sedition

bitter turtle
#

Imagine designing a thing in a casual pve game and literally just making it not work

#

Lol

zinc sundial
#

I almost fell asleep

raw steppe
#

And dt is a casual pve game

bitter turtle
#

That's just called shitty design

raw steppe
#

So everything is viable

zinc sundial
#

One does mot simply, casually kill heretics

bitter turtle
#

That's why I don't like this definition

raw steppe
#

So thats what people are asking

#

Theyre asking for strength

bitter turtle
raw steppe
#

Not viability

pallid notch
#

@main dock

raw steppe
#

They just suck ass

bitter turtle
#

Perhaps ppl should use the word competitive

#

But you know what they're asking

crisp rapids
raw steppe
#

And need a carry

bitter turtle
#

Does the gun have a niche basically

crisp rapids
#

i dont have it :XD:

bitter turtle
#

Does the gun have something that makes it stand out

#

Like v7 or lasguns

#

Which aren't meta

#

But have niches

torn root
#

its weird that this chat will say use what ever then turn and say something isnt viable

#

its a bit contradictory

raw steppe
pallid notch
bitter turtle
#

Yeah basically

raw steppe
#

"can x clear content" is always yes

#

Because its a casual pve game

#

So viable primary definition doesnt make sense

bitter turtle
#

That is why you see a disconnect

#

Which yes maybe people should say does this gun have a niche

#

Or is this gun competitive

#

But again

quick steeple
#

can we let this go already lol im too hungover to keep up with the chat

bitter turtle
#

I don't like arguing semantics so I just accept what ppl are asking

#

Lol

#

Which is what dis said

raw steppe
#

Yep

main dock
raw steppe
#

Just accept what words ppl are using

#

And give them the answer theyre looking for

#

Not the answer they asked for

bitter turtle
#

Otherwise you get this discussion

#

Which was a complete waste of time

#

Thank you

quick steeple
#

@mental wedge whats the build intention?

pallid notch

@main dock copied it from this dude https://youtu.be/lQRHFPJyALg?si=W1TD7iorvLus6AKi

Veteran gaming in patch 15 is pretty rough. The sustain just isn't there.
Is this build good? Yes. I've refined it several times and its solid.
Is this build fun? Extremely. haha graia go brrrrrrr.

I have tested 5 different builds and all 3 keystones. I have some thoughts on veteran's skill tree and all the anger around it. But that's not fo...

▶ Play video
raw steppe
#

Otherwise people will come in being like "is recon viable"

bitter turtle
#

It's everyone's fault except me

raw steppe
#

And the real answer is "no its not"

bitter turtle
#

Every last one of you

raw steppe
#

But ppl will argue it is

torn root
#

ppl are always going to argue what it is

raw steppe
#

Because they can beat a5 with it

torn root
#

because of contradictions

#

then yall are gunna clown on them

#

because of contradictions

bitter turtle
#

It's hard to get ppl to change the words they use even in more extreme cases

torn root
#

happens every day on this chat

bitter turtle
#

Just let them use the wrong word if it's harmless and u know what they mean

#

Not worth the effort

torn root
#

im not gunna correct anyone I am gunna note how funny it is to see it everyday

raw steppe
#

I only clown on ppl who say stupid shit lol

#

I never clown on anybody whos asking questions

#

Or looking for help

torn root
#

the moment yall say shit like recon is ass, or kraks are better than shredder a shit storm starts up

bitter turtle
#

Ya imagine telling them recon is viable in the sense that u can clear content with it

#

Then they farm for hours to make one

quick steeple
bitter turtle
#

And find out its complete shit compared to iag

bitter turtle
torn root
#

anyone with info, i dont know if you were on earlier yesterday

#

lmao

bitter turtle
#

I always say recon bad when ppl say we are talking off topic bc it's a generic and funny thing to say that nobody argues with

torn root
#

subjectively i think recons and infernus are hot trash

pallid notch
raw steppe
#

Infernus is a huge noob trap lol

torn root
#

can never have an objective notion, but DoT and low dps/ttk I am never going to say is good, past servicable

raw steppe
#

It seems so cool

#

Until you realize how shit it is

bitter turtle
#

It's not really subjective

torn root
#

never gunna state it like fact tho, always know its imo

bitter turtle
#

Recon is really basically an iag with pretty lasers

torn root
#

oy that's semantics

bitter turtle
#

But the dmg is just lower

#

No it's not

obsidian kite
#

what should I do with the perks? upgrade carapace, change one to maniac or something? I'm kinda just feeling like not touching it lol

bitter turtle
#

You can make an objective comparison between their numbers

torn root
#

its subjective the moment its opinion

#

😦

bitter turtle
#

Since it's basically the same gun type

torn root
#

dont

bitter turtle
#

Just look at that video that gets spammed for mutant ttk lol

#

It's just a bad gun that doesn't win at anything vs competitor that is the exact same gun

raw steppe
#

I would swap cara for elites for gunner BP or maniac for flamer bp

#

But cara is good too

torn root
#

tried it and immediately deleted that shit

pallid notch
#

Thx

torn root
#

I don't disagree on the sentimnt that recon is ass will never

main dock
#

Mainly using rifle in bursts to keep enemies pinned down as well as killing them

pallid notch
#

Am I switching up last gun than as well or no

main dock
#

Shout often, whenever there are enemies nearby

bitter turtle
main dock
#

use grenades to kill maulers and crushers

bitter turtle
#

It's literally the worst talent on vet tree

rancid shale
#

I found Joe Darktide's shovel. Pray for me guys.

torn root
#

supression bonus does next to nothing

main dock
#

With that build you are trying to suppress enemies

torn root
#

i think its the difference between 1 and 2 bullets ending some guys running

pallid notch
#

Do I go plasma gun than ?

#

Or get a good shotty ?

torn root
#

and suppresion gets bugged like every patch

pallid notch
#

My vet has little to nothing compared to my zely lol

rancid shale
torn root
#

last patch some enemies just weren't getting supressed

bitter turtle
#

Its just bad

quick steeple
torn root
main dock
#

Don't need grenade tinkerer to kill the enemies you'll use grenades on

#

good for bosses though

bitter turtle
#

Imo you'll be much better served dropping points in some of those mediocre talents to dip into survivalist or onslaught

#

Born leader is also pretty terrible

raw steppe
quick steeple
bitter turtle
#

Tinkerer only helps vs boss

raw steppe
#

And field improv is rwally good

#

Big disagree

torn root
#

i would at least get onslaught ngl

raw steppe
#

With your suggestions

torn root
#

tinkerer for Kraks is only for bosses yes

#

with shredders its diff

pallid notch
#

So am I going off the vid talent tree than I assume or no

cerulean void
bitter turtle

Let.me make a tree since I didn't watch vid

Feel free to follow it or nit

quick steeple

Pretty thoroughly tested in a5s

quick steeple
bitter turtle
#

Very generic tree for brauto

#

Stick the last point anywhere

tiny summit
#

you'll be missed vet

bitter turtle
#

If you want you can drop 1 pts to get a reload talent too

main dock
#

What is this onslaught ability you speak of?

bitter turtle
#

From demo team

raw steppe
#

I don't really agree with onslaught btw;

bitter turtle
#

Just shovel for carapace u think?

raw steppe
#

you already have 95% ADM against flak with 10% rending from mid tree, and shooting crushers is just a waste of ammo

#

just grenade and melee yeah

bitter turtle
#

Idk I like having the option

#

Also I rather take shredder over krak

#

But ig if you take krak don't onslaught yeah

main dock
#

Krak grenade kills carapace, shovel ability is for when you're out of grenades

torn root
pallid notch

Thx guys for the help

raw steppe

charismatic is actually quite good lol

bitter turtle
raw steppe

from my testing

serene sage

man if you think Darktide grinding is bad

don't play MH

bitter turtle

If you want krak I would do this personally

just looking at the tree you think it's bad, but from testing it's pretty strong

Though you take determined over precision strikes?

suppression immunity for a brauto?

I still take precision for.my melee

For 10 dollaroos

Also wilds announcement

cuz the other talents are useless

serene sage

a lot of ppl complained about rise difficulty because they went back to reducing iframes

serene sage
#

what do you think I am, poor?

bitter turtle
#

Works for melee too then

torn root
#

faster combat too

serene sage
#

i am

tiny summit
#

I mean...then why not just get weak spot dmg over suppression if you're just going for pathing

raw steppe
#

on headshots

#

lol

bitter turtle
#

Which is big for meleea

#

I know it's crap for brauto

raw steppe
#

oh yeah

#

good idea

serene sage
raw steppe
#

let me try it

bitter turtle
#

But ur melee benefits way more

zinc sundial
#

Did they make bosses spawn more often

torn root
bitter turtle
torn root
#

no weapon is a headshot weapon then

if you can aim at the head why not

serene sage
torn root
#

free damage

serene sage
#

wait, real quick about mh, for the gunlance, is wyrmstake a special kind of ammo or is it on a cooldown?

bitter turtle
#

Also I didn't mean to take comp urge wtf

#

Just noticed

serene sage
bitter turtle
#

So like

torn root
#

oh im thinkig about the other thing

bitter turtle
#

U know your fast reload

#

That reloads shells but not stake

serene sage
#

no no, not the reload thing, the spike thing

bitter turtle
#

The fast reloads happens after melee swing

#

Yes I know

torn root
#

the spike needs sling ammo

bitter turtle
#

Oh wait

torn root
#

its world lmao

serene sage
#

like hold RT and Y+B

bitter turtle
#

That

#

That just is on a cd

#

U can see from the barrel

serene sage
raw steppe
#

thanks for the rec

bitter turtle
#

I don't think you need sling no? Or am I thinking of the wrong thing lol

torn root
#

is it the stake the big one you put on the monster?

#

that explodes per hit?

bitter turtle
#

That stake doesn't need sling

#

It's just reloaded on a full reload

#

The wyvernfire shot is just on a cd

raw steppe
#

ew

#

using bowguns

#

instead of melee

bitter turtle
#

No

#

Gunlance wyvenrfire

raw steppe
#

o

bitter turtle
#

Not bowgun wyvern ammo

#

Lol

raw steppe
#

ok ur good then

#

fuck lbg

torn root
raw steppe
#

that was the first weapon i used

torn root
#

load to 1 min

raw steppe
#

and managing ammo

torn root
#

wyrmsteak blast takes sling ammo

raw steppe
#

was so fucking awful

torn root
#

as much as i didnt like arrekz back then

serene sage
#

okay so LT + Y+ B is Wyrmstake Canon which is CD based

#

RT + Y + B loads a special ammo that needs sling

raw steppe
#

and then i went down the dark path

bitter turtle
#

Oh ur saying wyrmstake blast

#

Lol

raw steppe
#

of becoming a longsword user

bitter turtle
#

I just meant normal wyrmstake

serene sage
#

idfk KEKW_ogryn

raw steppe
#

that was a dark history for me

#

and then finally i discovered the joys

serene sage
#

i can't even find a wiki that lists the moves

raw steppe
#

of GS and SNS

torn root
#

the blast is a neccessity for gunlance ever since the nerf

#

your gameplay revolves around it

bitter turtle
#

O ok

#

Lol

torn root
#

except on wide gl

bitter turtle
#

I only play wide

#

So I dont

#

Ye

torn root
#

it does the most on Long type

bitter turtle
#

Iw as only thinking of normal wyemstake

torn root
#

has the highest dps on normal

bitter turtle
#

Cause wide isnjust

raw steppe
#

I hate having rotations and shit so I also dislike GL lol

bitter turtle
#

Poke shoot poke shoot wyrmstake

#

Poke shoot reload

raw steppe
#

ye

bitter turtle
#

Repeat until brain melts

raw steppe
#

it's just a dps rotation

torn root
#

its the one weapon they have always needed to keep nerfed
