#

Both unarmored and flak are required for bruiser breakpoints last I checked, as well as very good offensive stats. It's less stringent if you take melee damage nodes in the tree but that's if.

i use it in rougue trader it a huge aoe burst attack

#

i think it be neat to have one of those lances

#

"Achctually" much KEKW_ogryn

junior needle
#

But for a serious reply

#

I don't think the 15% melee damage from the tree (if you take both melee nodes) will substitute for the 20/25% damage you need to hit them bruiser breakpoints

#

Although if you have a truly godroll axe

#

With max stats

#

You may be able to avoid it in that case

wanton dawn
#

There is weakspot dmg, rending, dmg aura, 15% melee and melee finesse bonus

#

On top of my head

junior needle
#

"damage aura"

wanton dawn
#

Yeah, it exists

junior needle
#

I didn't want to assume the person in question was trolling

muted knot
#

lets play a game of " who ran the plasmagun"

wanton dawn
#

Tell that to azreal

junior needle
#

Doesn't he primarily just solo/duo games

#

I don't think he's lacking for ammo

wanton dawn
#

It isnt trolling ?

junior needle
#

If you don't have a team they don't really need ammo

#

So I suppose in that context it's not

kind otter
#

Thoughts? Mostly melee with plasma secondary. Superiority complex to ogryn/monster damage?

junior needle
#

But soloing/duoing with your buddy is uh

wanton dawn
#

Oh well, instead of debating about nothing interesting i am just gonna check the requirement

junior needle
#

Not exactly the intended way to play the game

serene bough
#

I dont run ammo aura anymore

wanton dawn

#

What did i do im innocent

delicate estuary
#

Pubs gotta work for their ammo

#

Best ammo aura is a psyker that doesn't steal ammo from vet

wanton dawn
serene bough
#

Summary execution for me it seems

#

Goodbye vet chat had a good run

serene bough
umbral scaffold
#

Walk slightly faster, kill slightly faster or guaranteed supply of ammo

#

They are the 3 choices for vet auras

junior needle
serene bough
#

I just don't like playing the game with training wheels on anymore

tranquil bronze
#

The ammo regen aura is survivalist right? I just picked that because I thought it was the most convenient.

carmine bronze
#

is it true that if you die to plasma gun you can get the psycher explosion achvement

junior needle
#

It's overwhelmingly better than its alternatives for your team

serene bough
#

Its more than convenient

umbral scaffold
#

The game with training wheels is being in lower difficulties

serene bough
#

More handicaps

carmine bronze
#

i only play 4/5

torpid sundial
#

I built plasma gun but decided I didnt like using it

carmine bronze
#

anything lower is boring

I don’t think anyone will queue up in a game and see a vet with an aura other than survivalist and be like “wow that guy is a rebel”

Hmm... I'm thinking of swapping exec stance to VoC

Maybe you can one shot crushers

🤔

But dealing with hordes is pretty ass

#

Laspistol is faster

carmine bronze
torpid sundial
#

Like laspistol slide is +0.5% or something and revolver is -12%~?

#

Pretty noticeable

wanton dawn
#

Also i confirm that you can reach OS on dreg bruiser without flak but you need either damage aura or a a damage buff such as headtaker or redirect fire

serene bough
#

Is there ever a scenario in this game where movespeed is useful outside of zooming through everything with a knoife

carmine bronze
#

but i may switch to the new laspistol

#

i havent tried it yet

I’m using the laspistol X its good

i either kill all enemies or die trying

Do we get an update by end of January or end of Q1

#

That's the real question

carmine bronze

gungdam style XD

umbral granite

Made this. I use it on my grenade-support build, and it's pretty fun.

carmine bronze
#

wish the perks were better but looks nice

umbral granite
#

It could be better on the perk department, but it's good enough.

torpid sundial
#

I use ghost on the lazpistol

#

Its underrated

#

The was a sniper who fired at me from behind and I reacted too late

#

But bam took zero damage because I was shooting some gunner’s head

#

Also you can stand absolutely still and tank an entire patrol of shotgunners/gunners

umbral granite
#

Ghost just says "Yeah, gunners are kinda useless against me."

tranquil bronze

Is this a good buy?

"nah id win"

Catachan swords no good?

they are but blessing and perk are both bad

Well there's a naked one for sale

Trauma is a bad blessing

For flclaw

this seems saveable right ?

delicate estuary
# tranquil bronze Is this a good buy?

Upgrade to purple and if the second perk is good then upgrade the T2 blessing to a T4 you don't want to get (preferably one you dont want to get rolled) and gamble the second blessing. If good second blessing you can reroll the melee crit perk

correct me if im wrong but like above 77% its just personal choice to keep striving for all 80% and perfect perks

MAYBE Maniac

But you need the 2 blessings too

Brutal momentum, Headtaker

But you need unarmoured

As a vet

I like shred

Crit hits make it possible to 4 hit crushers

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I'm not quiet convinced

Not over head taker for sure though

Best I've got for now

Defiently not over BM

Since it'll weaken your cleave

placid portal

nah BM is best in slot tbh

terse idol

that's why we run unarmoured

Yeeahhh

super close quarters and does wonders vs mob control when the grenades aren't up

2nd is really whatever, it’s unarmored u care for

Tapping Devil-claw counter to parry a plague ogryn's stomp will never NOT be funny to me.

Same for spamming counter and just deleting a swarm of ragers.

ill have to get that one. i can swap out another thing too. probably swap out the flak armored enemys for max unyelding

I would support that

still 5

Wdym 5% off

#

Which target

terse idol

I have BM 2

So I'm at 10% weakpoint damage instead of 15%

Taking two points off rending and exploit weakness lets me take skirmisher which makes up the difference

It wasn't

Craime's got it, by just taking that extra 10% melee node

Which I never noticed deadDeluxe

It is KINDA important staregryn

My mind expands

wanton dawn
#

And also yes, I get the exact number you've shown without the 10%

So the mod is working as intended, which is always nice to confirnm

I gotta start actually getting these mods

and well learning the tree better

#

Oh goodness

wanton dawn
#

I am considering making a vet tree analysis but am lazy

Plus there is already a lot of those analysis around

Is this bricked or should I keep it. Crit chance and mobility are better than my current.

I don't use mk3 normally, but I did not have a good mk6 available with bm and carapace for my hellbore build

little difficult to find these things here

My standard for a guide would be: distance screenshot for charismatic, differencce between additive and multiplicative for thoughness bonus, BP consideration for longshot, etc

Leveling Vet after finishing Psyker, I am still unsure between bolter or plasma gun. Plasma feels unreliable but I've seen other vets annihilate with it.

Damn a 380. That hurts

grizzled lynx

yeah truly do, but ill still use it

Im not sure which blessing (surgical or hand cannon) would be better to replace speed load here

median merlin

Hand cannon, in my opinion. Useful for crushers.

Blap them everyone else rips into its lowered armor

grizzled lynx
#

so you would pick that and use it as util?

median merlin
#

I use it on my zealot

grizzled lynx
#

ok is lv2 good?

that means i just have to shoot 1 more shot to do full rending right

median merlin
#

With surgical you gotta sit there, on damnation you can't do that often

tall torrent
median merlin
#

Is run hand cannon, its gonna blap most of the elites, save the crusher and maybe Mauler. Rending will take care of those two

grizzled lynx
#

yeah i think im just gonna bring handcannon, can always change to surgical

#

to test out the break points after

#

yeah i think rending is more important, you can get cric chance pretty easy if you have this keystone

median merlin
#

There ya go. You can also stack rending from the rending node in the bottom middle tree

wanton dawn
#

I don't think it makes sense to get rending strike if you already have handcannon

median merlin
#

It stacks. 75% vs 60

esp if melee has uncanny, shredder nades etc. over100% rend/britle mult hits hard at those lvls

torpid sundial
#

hmm which is the highest dps recon lasgun rn if I want to torture myself

wanton dawn
#

First off, rending strike is 10%. Second, 60% rending on revolver is almost guaranteed to go in diminishing return territories, cutting rending strike efficiency by 75%

Pickaxe Shovel so oppressive when you hit that mutie breakpoint

you can literally kill muties with a heavy strike

which l asgun is best atm? im going to try to break my plasma addiction

tiny summit
#

take your pick

#

as long as it isnt recon atm

#

all helbores are viable, with mk3 having the highest dmg per shot but shit bayonet. All infantry lasguns are nice but consensus is that the XII has been powercrept on. Still a good weapon but the others had their dmg buffed enough to close the gap with their fire rates.

pine snow
#

damn rip xii last i bothered looking at lasguns that one was on top

#

also aren't all the lucius' bayonets shit anyway or was there something i missed

tiny summit
#

no

#

mk1 and mk2 have stabs and they are amazing. 3 shot mutants, staggers and kills ragers, 1-2 taps most other specials and other human sized enemies. With good positioning and horde management you can avoid swapping to me melee for almost an entire game if you want

#

also no joke, decent monstronsity dmg

sire melk tempts me, is this a good roll?

versed merlin
#

i am

turning into

tiny summit
#

oh its still a good weapon, its just that the dmg gap was closed enough with the Ia that most agree the fire rates make up for it. Get most of the important breakpoints with higher fire rate

a helbore enjoyer

median merlin
tiny summit
versed merlin
#

thats a lot of damage

median merlin
#

I need that scorecard mod.

strange sparrow
#

Hellbore 600k isn’t a lot

#

Especially if you run focus target

tiny summit
#

it isnt a lot, kinda standard games atm

#

I use MF

strange sparrow
#

Ew

versed merlin
#

i wasnt talking about total damage, mb

tiny summit
#

ew what? its good

versed merlin
#

i was looking specifically at elites and specials

tiny summit
#

ah

strange sparrow
#

Range headshot damage put me off for hellbore

versed merlin
#

the gap from both vets to the zealots is huge

strange sparrow
#

Its already pretty high on headshot

#

So it’s extra damage that I kinda don’t need

tiny summit
#

had this game too. the ogryn had the dmg and the specials were inflated because of hunting ground and mutant waves

placid portal
#

Hunting grounds is where you conflate your stats

#

or get free cooldown reduction

versed merlin
tiny summit
versed merlin
#

i was gonna ask, does it not counts waves of specials?

torpid sundial
#

I have the standard scoreboard but I cant seem to get that particular scoreboard plugin to work

hybrid token
#

wave dogs and muties are technically a different enemy

#

standard board probably doesnt count them

versed merlin
#

ah that would makes sense

tiny summit
#

trying to craft some perfect helbores that have 80 dmg and at least 70 stopping power helbores and Hadron insists on infernus, sustained fire and reload speed

versed merlin
#

i have a perfect one from melk but its mk2

#

and i enjoyed mk3 much more

hybrid token
versed merlin

I put off mk2 for a while and then I used a random one I got from a mission. I am now a mk2 enjoyer

is this salvagable?

i just bought it from melk and at the time i didnt even like helbores at the slightest KEKW_ogryn

Gotta get the dummy dums

versed merlin
#

then yesterday i spent 1m dockets getting a good mk3 roll, so i got karma'd

tiny summit
#

sprint efficiency underrated but I get why people dont want it on their guns

placid portal
#

Yea since you get sprint efficiency by just wiedling your grenade

#

If anyone didn't know Grenade stamina stat is 5

#

at base iirc

#

Fuck mixed up bc I always use the +1 stamina

versed merlin
#

oh frick

#

sprint efficieny is what, less stam consumed on sprint?

#

or do you run faster?

#

or both?

placid portal
#

so if your melee & ranged has poor stamina cap swap to grenade

glacial dragon
#

Any idea why I can't seem to score a weakspot hit against maulers and crushers with plasma gun? It says flak armor when I shot right at a mauler's head, the damage number is in white and the same as a body shot.

tiny summit
#

I think its bugged atm

quick steeple
spiral epoch
#

decided to try upgrading my plasma gun instead to use for now, what should I roll away on this?

hybrid token
placid portal
#

By the empra

#

it's a near Good roll

glacial dragon
#

Wait it actually counts as a weakspot shot since it triggers the exhilarating takedown talent.

quick steeple
muted knot
#

But their head is carapace keep that in mind

quick steeple
glacial dragon
hybrid token
#

sub 500.....BUT

glacial dragon
#

I think it could just be a display bug in the meat grinder

#

Shots fired at crusher's head does deal more damage than the body. Probably it's just mauler's head's damage reduction from carapace and weakspot multiplier canceled out each other that caused headshot has the same damage as body shot. This combined with the armor type and damage color display bug could really be misleading.

quick steeple
glacial dragon
#

It's not just about the color. Not only is the color in white, the armor type shows "flak armour" in the headshot of a mauler too.

umbral scaffold

whats going on fellow rejects

outer creek
#

Deliberately inflammatory but serious question: how does anyone justify taking speed aura? What can a build gaining in the 1-3 perk points to not take the most tangibly powerful aura in the game? Cuz ill be honest I see it every now and again and it's frequently paired with that vet being at or near the bottom of the scoreboard

umbral scaffold
#

speed vet is viable

#

just run shotgun with him instead

#

plus i had a dream where the blue shotgun somehow cleaved and shot over 100 miles away with its special round

placid portal
#

You could

#

With manstopper

outer creek
#

Basically all vets are viable I just dont ever feel the difference

umbral scaffold
umbral scaffold
#

one gets ammo

one runs fast like a zealot

ones a marksman

one is a heavy lugger

one is a run and gunner

quick steeple
outer creek
#

I'm taking talents to impact my, and my teammates gameplay, in the team game. I never once notice the difference speed makes for us, and I'm wondering what the benefit is in saving those points that can rival the tremendous ammo sustain

#

This is of course a non issue if there's just like, more than one vet

spiral epoch
#

is there a mod so I can bind an action to two different keys. My special activation is bound to mousewheel up for easy spam with my melee weapons etc, but I realise I can't vent this plasma gun with this setup lol

I haven't modded before so i'm looking through the steps now, do I want to use vortex or install everything manually via darktide mod loader?

torn root
#

NO

#

umm it easy

#

i can word it out give me a bit

outer creek
#

It's not necessarily simple, but it is in fact easy

torn root
#

you basically have to make a Mod folder and that's the 1st step, i personally did it myself but for some ppl it just Existed for some reason

outer creek
#

This has gifs showing you how to do it

torn root
#

The 1st 2 mods you need are the Darktide Mod Loader and the Darktide Mod Framework

thick rose
vernal harbor
#

never seen infernus 4 so that alone id say yes

torn root
#

For the Mod Framework and Mod loader you have to extract all files, when you download other mods, only the bottom file needs t be extracted

#

highlight and drag*

outer creek
#

My instant reflex is swap crit damage for maniac and idk, anything for No Respite. I like Ghost or Headhunter personally

thick rose
#

so IV wants same as the other lasguns?

How are shovels usually built, I'd like to work on one.

bitter turtle
#

And decimator*

torn root
#

some of the nice combos are [Take a Swing + Thrust for CC] [Thrust + Uncanny Strike to Kill Specials] The Uncanny setup is the one that kills crushers i think

#

or actualy I think to Kill crushers you only need thrust with the special

bitter turtle

Don't think take a swing gets taken outside of all or nothing + take a swing

What gun is this anyway

sage obsidian

revlver

bitter turtle

Wep specialist is way better for revolver as a keystone

Er

#

Which revolver actually

#

Fanning or ads

sage obsidian

the faast 1

bitter turtle
#

O then nvm

sage obsidian
#

quick reload

bitter turtle
#

Do u really need krak tho lol

#

Fanning delete bosses

umbral scaffold
#

Weapon Specialist is just chad for a lot of long reload weapons imo

bitter turtle
#

Ya but this fanning

#

Less important

umbral scaffold
#

oh ye for sure

bitter turtle
#

I can see going full dmg for the boss delete

#

But then y krak lol

umbral scaffold
#

memes maybe lol

frank mantle
#

all veteran guild when

umbral scaffold
#

Krak is really strong but at the same time, lack of flexibility on it makes me not wanna get it recently

frank mantle
#

need to send some guardsmen squad to show them how it's done.

umbral scaffold
#

bleed nades give space

#

and clear hordes so you can kite

#

Krak gets rid of Bulwarks and Crushers but not too much of an issue if you're rocking Plasma anyway

bitter turtle
#

Shredder is on 4/5 of my loadouts

umbral scaffold
#

same

frank mantle
#

krak is good on maps with crusher patrols

umbral scaffold
#

Unless I'm rocking like claw + brauto, then I just take Krak

torn root
frank mantle
#

helbore + krak is a must otherwise if crusher closes in

bitter turtle
#

Shredder knocks them down for easy pickings

umbral scaffold
#

hoenstly even in melee only aurics I find shredder nade to be more useful a lot of the time

frank mantle
#

grenadier krak is my fun build

#

oh really?

#

huh

bitter turtle
#

And clears out the gunners or specialists around them

umbral scaffold
#

just cos you knock them on their ass

#

ye
Krak is really strong at killing crushers

bitter turtle
#

So u can just safely mop them up

frank mantle
#

that's cool

#

didn't konow ty

torn root
#

Krak is just there for people who want and easier answer to bulwarks, I am not gunna talk down on krak usage. Not every weapon or load out deals well with bulwarks, and not everyone wants to do the work to open bulwarks for easier kills

umbral scaffold
#

but shredder does the next best thing which is knock them on their ass

#

yeah

#

is not really that Krak is bad but Shredder just has insane utility

frank mantle
#

well helbore i can 2shot crushers on weakpoint

#

so knocking them down also works

umbral scaffold
#

even if it does like 0 daamge to maulers/crushers

bitter turtle
#

Krak doesn't necessarily kill the whole pack so sometimes it's not even a perfect answer if you have a trapper or flamer hiding behind

umbral scaffold
#

yeah

#

that said, krak does shine a bit more when it's vs bosses

#

if you wanna be funny sometimes

wanton dawn
#

Kraks is better than frags against bon and 1/2 ogryns melee. Frags is better/as good in all other circumstance

umbral scaffold
#

and your loadout isn't that good

bitter turtle
#

The krak stunlock is insanely good for stuff like spawn

#

Ya

umbral scaffold
#

I just take Krak if I have absolutely 0 answers to stuff

#

claw + br auto? yeah I take krak

sage obsidian
#

can u llnk me the best build for the fast revolver then?

round crane
umbral scaffold
#

but if I have Plasma or old revolver/psword, or the new shovel
probably just shredder

personal experience I don't have issues with vortex loading mods for darktide

#

as long as you configure it properly

torn root
#

if you are actually coming here to tell ppl to use mods through vortex for darktide It's obvious you don't know that vortex has a problem scanning darktide for application

wanton dawn
#

Imagine not having a short fuse

umbral scaffold
#

just need to point it to the right folder

umbral scaffold

which should be like, computer gaming 101

but then again I was in a discord for modding an old game

round crane
umbral scaffold
#

and I know firsthand people don't know how to point applications to folders anyway lol

wanton dawn
#

Personally i just do it manually. I dont feel like i need a mod manager

torn root
#

so teach them, it literally isnt hard

#

even a month ago vortex was having problems with darktied

bitter turtle
#

I also do manual since it's fairly simple in this game

torn root

dont have to rely on it if you can learn how to do it manually easy

Not annoying to undo mods like in mh or other games

not gunna insult someone because he doesnt use it like I do

you cant say there is problems without having the ability to describe the porblems

you can actually google it

sometimes that shit doesnt load things because it is busy

you can always have your shit load if you do the manual work

i can get a bunch more links of peopl talking about it being down or not working at one point or another

learning how to apply them your self is legit a 5 minute sit down

bitter turtle
#

Search it if you don't believe me Sitgryn

torn root
#

another time it didn't work right either

#

im not telling people not to use it

#

but you CAN learn, and not get mad at someone telling others how to manually do shit

#

i believe ppl are capable

#

Nexus and Vortex is completely infallable i guess tho

#

not even saying its bad or not to use it, mind you

#

this one talks about needing to download mod managers seperatley in some cases too

which is what we were advising earlier

Self reliance best

is there a difference in the dmg of a 380power with 80 dmg stat and like... eg 320 power with 80dmg stat ?

bitter turtle
#

It depends

#

Other stats also affect dmg sometimes

#

Like stopping power or finesse

torn root
#

but damage sadly isnt the only thing that affects the numbers depending on the weapon

thick rose
#

so for example would you try and build this up

#

I cannot get a fucking decent base for the life of me

torn root
#

in the example you gave its 2 different weapons right? So I am almost 100% sure they don't do the same per shot damage

torn root
#

THAT'S NOT DECENT HOW?!

thick rose
#

because I want it to be 380 and at the top of my list because mental

torn root
#

Bigger number is nice, but you are gunna go crazy trying to roll roulette in this game

thick rose

yeah right

seen someone with a 380 at 50% damage

that is enough disappointment for one night

Infernus ate a big nerf to me with the no longer procs onslaught

#

i missed the period when vet was broken apparently tho

maybe you are thinking of the VoC +100 overtoughness and infinite ammo recon era

#

funny to spend the entire mission shooting crushers and hordes and not run out

I enjoyed rending recon

bitter turtle

Recon wasn't even yhe best wep that patch

#

Just funny

thick rose
#

honestly didnt feel that unbalanced, just before the rework... not as bad as some stuff now. not sure why they murdered it.

bitter turtle
#

Even unnerfed the current iags would still outclass it

Maniac dmg was and still is terrible

barren cave
#

do you run onslaught( the talent) on non braced iag's

bitter turtle
#

Yes

sharp ember
#

columnus iag absolutely

torn root
#

on all IAGs imo you should run onslaught

barren cave
#

because I use it, because it just sounds good, but Ive been getting a little suspicuous of its value lately

bitter turtle
#

Column and graia for sure imo, you could do a krak agri iag build without onslaught ig

barren cave
#

but I just gotta have trench fighter, and onslaught is on the way so

torn root
#

they drastically change ttk on those 2

sharp ember
#

it helps a lot with countering damage falloff from range

since falloff scales down your damage modifier

then my MG12 lasgun dunked on the bolter

at this point bolter is just a shit revolver

median merlin

and lasguns should NOT be more powerful then a bolter

it will be the new bolter

old bolter can eat shit for all i care

i dont think i see a lasgun deleting monsters still though ngl

that and a plasma pistol
