Hi fellow veterans. Is there a way for plasma gun to consistently 1 shot body shot Dreg Gunners?
If yes, please share your blessings, perks and key talents which helped you overcome that breakpoint.
Dreg Gunners have 1400 hp
He done a good job in describing the math of Rending
As in making IAGs deal more headshot damage than crit damage, and vice versa on recons
no I don't believe there's a break point ATM to one shot body shot dredge gunners
It basically works in a way that it brings your damage closer to unarmored damage until 100% rending. 100% rending on carapace for instance makes you do damage as if it was unarmored.
Rending above 100% gives small damage that is pretty much negligible.
And then kinda bring both to the same overall DPS
Just different methods and builds to achieve it

I think MK3 Hellbore and Focus Target hit that
With +elite talent, +30% weak point damage, and +25% unarmoured
But I’m too lazy
As far as I know
For headshot, then you'd need +25% to unarmored, correct?
There isn't a body shot BP for dredge gunners
yeah
Without longshot
Or focus fire
Idk that sounds weird
In practice then recon is just iag but easier if both do same dps
Recon LasGun would never be good because it’s gimmick of Laser inverse drop off
But in reality carapace takes a lot more from crit
Recon can be good
recon has virtually no recoil or spread
Anyone else notice that plasma gun headshots are inconsistent?
That's what's confusing me. I see a lot of plasma gun posts recently talking about 1 shotting dreg gunners I am really interested lol!
Maybe just on crushers
I've talked to folks about trying to get it with just 10% elites on the pgun
But I don't have an 80-80 damage stopping power pgun
So I can't test it reliably
I'll also preface I test without longshot
So Helbore are snipers, recon are basically machine guns. Would that make infantry basically a basic rifle?
The main problem with recon lasguns is the ammo economy, it's dogshit since survivalist gives you less bang than on an autogun.
Like yea, they have a larger ammo pool but so does an autogun like columnus, so you get 8 shots back on columnus but on a recon 8 ammo only returns 4 shots since it 2 ammo per shot.
Maniac dmg is also a big recon problem
I believe pgun bp on dredge gunners is most reliable without added effort on your part
In practice yes
Excluding longshot imo, but longshot could help you meet the BP when dredge gunners are far away
Helbore arent snipers though they're more like a m1 garand
Give recon bayonet
I want my gunsword
Fixes both ammo efficiency and maniac dmg
It's perfect
In a lab, absolutely correct. NOW, that is an extreme oversimplified model for the actual situ. First, what are you trading off to get that 100% damage? Second, for how long are you able to dish out that damage before the inevitable interruption? Third, what is your backup plan?
Its so fun to see damage theoreticals, when the actual situ is - you get 40 maulers with 150 little bastards with a CS, BN, and DH lying in the middle where you cant go, all in an enclosed space, for moving on means x2 the previous maulers and little bastarsd, etc.
For simpler understanding, in an MMO setting, for DDs to calculate that "breakpoint" a similar model assumes that there is a PARTY that buffs/debuffs/heals and tanks for the DD sto be able to do their job. One can trust their party in an MMO to do their part of the job. Here in DT? LOLs NO
Approx 1100 dmg to body (flak), another 10% elite damage is still short by 200 dmg
Aaah! Makes sense!
Ya know I’d love a lasgun that reloads like a Garand
Juust do headshots
A las clip would probably be to hot to touch
I haven't seen any discussion about getting a 1 shot bp on a dredge gunner with just a body shot
Lol
Oh definitely!
I wonder which lasgun would be best for me.
As in
40-100 damage off
The headshot BP
On a pgun
No discussion so far as the goal to getting a 1 bodyshot
Thats why you line up 2 and kill in two shots, one shot per kill 
which begs the question what even triggered you to try that out? Sounds like a torture any way you look. But at damnation at least you could BRAG and in all honesty that would be impressive. Masochistic, but impressive. I would actually even go with you to do that.
If Recon Lasguns used 1 ammo per shot instead of 2 then they could compete with the Columnus Autogun since their damage profile is similiar but the Columnus basically has double their ammo pool.
That's why u don't understand why
He plays bolter and we were talking about the gun b4 I decided to try it
Perhaps with executioner's stance, or
Voice of command + close quarters killzone / competitive urge / longshot
Doubling ammo pool would be a bit much
But I wouldn't be opposed to it
VId uses one. Problem is, last patch when you crited on recguns, they had next 4 shots crit (if I remember well). Now its 2 for all recguns. Vid was wild back then, now its still the best out of the recguns, but much trashier than it was...
It’s good there’s a skill that makes lasgun crits not consume ammo. That should help a bit
Overbuff it then nerf it slightly so its just good
who will tell em
Oh no for sure
Uh
I'm pretty sure recon would still be worse than current iag
they nerfed shock trooper on recons
Recon happens to not work with shock trooper
Even if they didn't touch it
it doesnt work on crit strings
My goal personally is getting the one shot headshot without any added effort
With any extra added damage
You'll make it
U still have the awful maniac dmg
But I don't want to rely on anything more but passives
Even when it was competitive
Then leave everything else I do to react to things
Maybe I'm just stubborn
Because I know even if you have like 1 stack of focus target
You'll meet the BP
But I'm in the boat that, you need to hit the BP with no added effort
It would let you use it more liberally while on the Columnus you can pretty much shoot everything if you have survivalist aura because it's the most economical autogun with one of the highest close-mid range DPS-es.
Recons are supposed to be the infantry autoguns of lasguns so them having similiar ammo capacity would be fine I think even with Shocktrooper because you have to invest a talent point and a blessing to make it proc reliably.
It's not 5%
should I change flak to maniac?
It's roughly 10 or 15
they're talking about fireteam
Pretty sure its 5
its %5
Lol
Thought we were talking about something else
If only fire team was 15
And close in kill is 15 percent movespeed to compensate
An aura better them surv no way
:^)
yea I would take 10

psyker on the other side literally dead with 5% for only elite damage
Fire team is actually better than them
I'm using fire team on 5 because my rashad BP is crushing my balls into a fine paste
5 is meh as fuck gimme 7
I think fireteam is ok aswell
it is. but this server thinks it's trash for whatever reason
You don't hear psykers complain about their 5% only elite damage aura
Cause they compare it to survivalist
Which is broken as fuck
Meanwhile vets piss and shit themselves over 5% damage aura
yeah but it's okay to be broken
And needs to be reworked
Because 5% barely makes up any BP's

it does though
Surv is not broken pls buff
psyker can use it

putting damage on an aura is just not the best idea to begin with
gungryn can use it
every guns that is not bp dependent aka autoguns can use it
That's my problem
It's generically good on autoguns
Doesnt it give damage to your mates
Not every gun is BP based
they don't build around missing %5 damage to kill things
sad when it was originally like 10%, a solid difference
Unless it's me
I'm in ball crush zone
quite the opposite people do ANYTHING they can to avoid being in that boat
where they barely miss breakpoint
You dont build around survivalist unless youre dumb
Yes you do wtf
So many guns rely on surv rn lol
On vet
If you cant survive without a ammo vet then scrap your build
there are so many guns in this game kept in check by ammo
ogryns become the best ranged class in the game with survival vet present
Only time you don't take survivalist anyways is if you are running a selfish build that can't afford the points for it
🥹
I play glugger you just need to know when not to waste ammunition
*learn to melee
I used to have a gun I unironically depended on psyker aura to get 1 shot breakpoints on
damage roll issue
Well yeah
But people want to shoot bunches
I don't blame em

In the horde pve shooting game
''oh no psyker dmg aura time to quit lobby''
You build a gun build
i run surv because i don't trust my teammates to share
and i need ammo for clutching
I run Surv because it's the easiest Aura in Talent tree
I don't see how the git gud comments change anything I said about fireteam lmao
the aura talk is always ppl high on copium
I run surv so i can be reckless and not be punished for it
well yeah
alright chat
It's fun to shoot
Ok
You'll never see a worse take
''u don't need survivalist anyways'' well ye I don't do you know what I also don't need? Any other aura lmao
Than
The alternative is also Surv Aura give Veteran ability to Shoot consistently
Coherency > dmg in importance on scoreboard
Because without it, you run into constant ammo problem
your team doesn't need it
FireTeam does give value but abysmal
I will hug my teammates and never attack to be the optimal redditor
YOUR TEAM DOESNT NEED SURV
Too little to be useful
Columnus might kill a pox walker 1 bullet less
they do need it more so than fireteam
But we're live in a world
Where we can't even get MOBILITY

WE GET MOVEMENT SPEED
Youre the only person that matters, anyone else can die
What Zealot gonna do, shooting his revolver
bruh this is like
Fire team gives about as much value as the auras on other classes
this. Reddit loves shoving their heads up each other ass for sake of coherency
elementary grade math
It's one of the better ones
So either everything needs to be buffed to be surv tier
😎
Or nerf surv
Just because they need it more does NOT mean they dont need fire team. What if you already have a surv vet. Surv vet is inf ammo you dont need two
the frenchman is here
yeah I took it
I got 8 stacks
And redirect fire
I make build to kill things in X amount of shots, your %5 damage doesn't help me in any perceivable way
The only things that matter on the scoreboard are: Did you win? And how much Plasteel did you personally pick up?
Nothing else matters.
ah i didnt have to scroll far
Btw, am pretty sure this discussion already happened like... 8 hours ago ?
Plasteel do be important
the biggest truth bomb to ever drop
High fire rate low damage weapons benefit from fire team
It's kinda useless on "single shot weapon imo"
I though i was hallucinating at first
wdym?
oh yes if you're mindnumblingly stupid enough to shoot 150 rounds of your braced auto into a crusher without any rending
it's another way of hitting BPs for single shot weapons
Find trouble stacking consistently
Bosses
in which case you'd still need survivalist more
again
bosses
survivalist matters more
you're magdumping a boss
guess what you need
FUCKING AMMO

are YOU a bad enough dude to take suboptimal shit to auric damnation? 
idk about you, I stand still, I shoot one headshot and bam 8 stacks
just a little more and bam 10 stacks
Making me want to post my Exe MF helbore games
Also the other issue is, it only buff headshot damage
If you know how to play exec stance
Ever magdumped ciag on a boss its like what 200-300 ammo if a BoN is facing you
and reload speed
Yes
yeah real fucking useful that %5 damage
for some guns it's optimal to take marksman focus imo
Just because survivalist matters does not mean fire team doesnt matter too. Oh why are you running headhunter run revolver it doesn't benefit you
Marksmens focus is to focus on hitting things you'll already be hitting while in Exec stance
It's really good
it's just that people are so used to Plasma Revolver being strong without talents
It doesn't make sense
I use it to reach bp on my melee build 
Because you can get 10 stacks on like 4 guys
and anything that can't one tap out of the box is "bad"
I mean do u think everything needs to be surv level tho
I just dislike 2 nodes and some numbers. 1% reload per stack is a joke. 10% rending at only 10+ stacks is a joke. 15 stacks is a joke vs free stacks
It's good
Fire team is on par with other class auras
thats the topic, I was making the point its a selfish aura and irrelevant for teammates
Surv is just ridiculously out of line
Yea 10% rending is dumb
I find it to be relevant
If teammates have auto weapons it's something
I just think like
I use it to hit BPs on like 2 builds
I dont think any other class thinks about how useful an aura is for the team when picking it. its only a vet thing
There are better class aura's
Ppl still take redirect fire and focus target and shit
By that reasoning it's pointless too
I would trade survivalist for 7.5% rending team aura
Ogryn heavy attack aura
As most aura are. I dont take surv for my mates either
same but they benefit a lot from it
Ya because it's stupidly overpowered
They do from fire team too rodent
no way you are comparing the heavy att aura to fire team
zealot/ogryn players harass me over not taking survivalist lmao
If i could steal their ammo i would 

Do we really want every aura to be survivalist tier lol
thats based
Focus Target are easier as it is "Flat 8% per stack" damage over Marksman Focus "Bonus Finesse Headshot Damage"
I know it's a meme
Is probably one of the worst
No
but I do feel the 5% ms difference
Auras in the game
Ms is good wtf
You think?
Ms?
I don't feel it
Yes
if you take the filler node, that's 10%
U can literally
%5ms can be useful
+5% Movement Speed is funny
that's marked difference
I can feel it just because I play so much of movement speed into my builds.
since shit runs at a fixed speed
that's craaazy
Ms is negligible
again, it's horrid compared to surv
on some weapons %5 extra speed might just be what you need to outrun a horde
but so is every other auras
Focus target is bad cause it helps your teammates do damage and I cant have that for my scoreboard. /s
The only auras I feel are survivalist and cleanse. Everything else is background "OK I guess I have some buffs"
the problem with speed aura is well.. its on the way to smoke grenades
you see my friend, the trick is tag just before you shoot
Movement Speed is important for us to "Farm Plasteel"
so no stinly teammates can KS
Ms aura is doubly cursed with tree position ya
I only take knife to farm Plasteel
Focus target is only for yourself because you'll top leaderboards with it anyways
I have a suspicion you'd see more ppl run speed aura if smokes were not present
But it's not bad

Ms aura is bad cuz knife zealot still run away too far and cant benefit from it

I would run smoke aura if fuckin
The movement speed is really nice when you combine it with other higher mobility weapon setups. That amount of movement speed is really good in situations where you're actually going to have the room to move around a lot to set up better shots, get in close for melee safely during a pincer, etc.
I dont think thats enough to elevate smoke to being useful
It doesn't matter because Sniper is really really not that threatening imo
okay maybe y'all getting me on this
If you bother accounting for knife zealot dont. Just count your forth teammate as absent
MS aura ride
But if you're just straight up not trying to make use of that kind of thing, then you're just never going to use it.
after you learn the game, Sniper just useless against you
MS aura is great for people willing to actually fuck with it.
It's just so hard to know
otherwise, don't bother.
uhh ohkay
You understand how strong ms can be if u play zealot lol
I mean sometimes I can't even see OR hear the sniper before it blasts me
10 percent is good when you take both
Oh I know
With a knife
NYOOM
And stab some gunners
Not even with knife
Run back to team
Why ? Knife zealot are still ppl and i want them in my coherency 
they could make smokes bamboozle ALL of the ranged mobs in the game and it would still be inferior to psyker bubble lmao
thats how fucking bad it is
Download the mod that give visual audio que instead

those mods cheating
frfr
the fact that it doesnt even stop gunners or snipers is just the way game is telling you you are a moron for using it
They dont want to be in your coherency its poison to them
because I'm lazy
Most people aren't going to fuck with the utility that smoke gives since you're just always goingto be confronted with the fact you never blew up someone with a krak or shred lmao.
Skill Issue
That ain't no skill issue!
I have to actually HEAR
The snipers
That I can't see
And dodge on instinct
Smokes are good for my suicide plasma build
Also Sniper gun is extra heavy so
Smoke makes you hella dependent on your weapon and positioning and well.
So I can get close to the enemies and blow myself up with overload
Thats the point though, they dont get speed aura so whats the point of life 
And deal damage
Good luck when you got people clinging to survivalist lmao
what the fuck does that mean
They turn slow

If you ever notice
does anyone here play Starcraft 2 and Darktide at the same time?
i am going somehwere with this I promise
You can literally spam dodge and it wouldn't hit you
I mean yeah that's how I abuse them by dodging into a corner and sloow peaking to line up a shot
Are you collecting dead game or smth ? 
I mean my ADHD hasn't hit that hard
The vape nation vet build
I play darktide on two different consoles to make up for bad teamates
Yet
oh shush
VOC funny man
bruh grenade talent smoke
But you cannot deactivate cross-play if you do that 
truly the work of either a genious or deranged mind
you're reminding me of that drill post
Deranged for sure
30 points and a down to almost do what a krak nade does
Yea man. It's important to hotbox the hive on enhanced blitz maelstroms
Half of a krak nade actually
the administratum needs to learn from you
this is everything wrong with vet chat
Don't forget the dmg stim too
I need to pour bleach into my eyeballs
Looks like a heretic ritual
How come Bardins smoke didn't feel as bad?
Yeah it's carcinogenic
What the plasma burster build? Or the fact that noone can seem to stay on one topic for longer then 30 seconds
😌
you think the smoke is to cover your path to aloha snackbar the enemy
it's actually to conceal your teammates from seeing the shit you do 
after some deliberations, I think world hunger is a bad issue and should probably be elimited.
Really?
oh hey that's an answer to your question 
no vet chat would collectively agree its a skill issue and they should have conserved their food better
One game saw a vet with surv so I decided to swap from my exe build to one w/o surv. I forgot which was which because I chose the Infil w/smokes instead of VoC w/kraks. Throwing down smokes as a crusher party comes up and I'm like "oh...this isn't good."
i like to think you are camping this chat just waiting 
I need to get out of bed, shower, breakfeast and go to work 
just quit
take a mental health day
stinky
Practice safe mental health exercises. Like bringing your 80dmg 380s for Hadron to bless
Sorry, heresy must be slain. In spreadsheet
I want a chain bayonet for my lasgun
chainknife
How would that even work
You wouldn't be able to stab people
yeah you just cut
Well thats a ripper from fallout new vegas
In the grimmest darkest future, everything is a chain-adjacent weapon
Now we just need to find out how to put chains on lasers...
The gothic pizza cutter
Ogryn could wield that
dumb question: does the bolter have 1SBS breakpoints on gunners?
or is it like plasma where you need a headshot
you can get there but it should be a crit with enough distance
not that hard to do with surgical
but it is conditional
ah i see, thanks
Sorry to Necro this. Thinking about it, the optimal blessings and perks for PG would be
25% flak
10% elite
Gets Hot
Shattering Impact
30% Precision Strikes
Still 2 shots to kill both flamers, 4 shots to kill mutant
But can consistently 1sbs shotgunners, scab gunner, and 1shs dreg gunners
Chain axe
Thoughts on this y'all?
SI?
hnm
What perks are ya using for the 1shot headshot on a dredge gunner?
Yes I've been thinking about it a lot. Blaze away theoretically is good but in practice, it doesn't lower the ttk
And you immediately lose the buff if you change targets
So, shattering Impact, to help on monstrosities lol. In truth. All the blessings aren't so great
hnn
Even Gets Hot. Because PG crit is very weak
But then Blaze it would help you more vs monstrocities
and Gets hot can help you with an interesting BP
let's seee
+Flak (doesn't help)
+10% elite perk (on top of 10% elite talent)
30% precision strikes
Gets Hot for sure. Blaze Away is so good in theory, but the buff falls off almost immediately if not spam clicking M1
meta gun.....
hmm, do you have long shot?
wait yeah but
Stats are pretty poor. You want higher stability and stopping power. Scuffed perks, one good blessing even if it's not a higher tier.
The gun is very overtuned so you'll still outperform other weapons with it
He has seen some real shit
But it's not good value for melkbux
that's why blaze it and get's hot are the meta blessings
Either needs long shot, competitive urge, or Marksman active
What about this chain sword?
Yes, and shattering Impact achieves faster TTK for crushers,
Same TTK for reapers and bulwarks
And buffs whole team
sad
yeah this is why I don't take +10 elites
because I value not running longshot
me stubborn dis way
In return, we gain consistency in 1sbs shotgunners
I must make the BP without any added effort
Me too. Well full stacks focus target achieves the same
what stats do you want on a headhunter autogun
It wasn't a good base with that damage anyway
Need 10% elite, 15% elite talent, and focus target (or have redirect fire buff active)
I read somewhere that +flak is useless on PG but I can't agree.
I'm starting to see that +maniac on PG is only impactful for Mutants tho
Damage/stopping power, ammo, not entirely scuffed stability.
10% melee?
Mb typo
Take to gold

*scream
That's pretty decent. Not terribly sure about breakpoints on the HH's nowadays.
salvagable?
Basically build left & middle at the bottom
Lookin pretty scuffy. Perks are scuffed, some people like taking bloodletter but if you value waveclear you're gonna want rampage/wrath for blessings.
Shredder only applies to the special attacks on chainswords
This a decent one?
Shattering -> gets hot
Reload speed -> carapace/unyielding
That’s basically godroll
what about replace both blessings with blaze away + gets hot?
Based on my recent testing, change reload speed to +25% to flak
Change Glory Hunter to Gets Hot
Not needed, gloryhunter is good
You could but GH4 is fine
my main thing is reaching breakpoints , specifically for ragers/maniac
thats why im wondering gets hot or blaze away lol
alrighty
blaze away aint worth replacing GH for? 40% power lol
That's great except for the ammo dump, but you aren't losing that much. Only about 30~ boolets. 2/4 things you want. The low tier dumdum isn't even bad because it doesn't scale that well with levels anyway. Definitely worth nabbing.
It’s alright but
Getting that 10% reload speed off is better
Plasma wants perks more than blessings
And gloryhunter is good
copy that. will most likely put 25% flak
Not sure if flak does anything, maybe a bit better mauler bodyshot
I think scab rager could 1 shot with crit?
Gets Hot is mandatory
I'm not convinced about SI
must seeeee
because folks have been blasting SI
For a whiile
Shattering impact for plasma?
whats with that yucky penetration
It’s not good
yeah
Brittleness/rending does insignificantly little for plasma because the armor multipliers are all pretty good
It’s at best a buff for ur teammates
But a lot of the times you just straight out kill whatever you’re shooting a plasma gun at
Which one do I use?
deep fried
the screenshots? yes i know lol
OK IT IS NOT THAT BAD LMAO
your screenshot servo skull has been chugging tainted stims
lol yeah he's been trying some new stimulators lately. In-game it looks fine I just think it's hilarious how deep fried the screenshots look
The HDR looks fine ingame tho
I swear
just woke up and this me ong
Amen brother Amen
Loving the lasgun lg1. But oh my god the RoF makes me lose my finishing shot sometimes. (Not to sound competitive) I just need my exhilarating takedown
any tips for hard mode? just switchhed from shattering impact/inspiring barrage bolter to shattering impact/gets hot plasma gun
Try a Columnus MkV
The highest tier cosmetic challenge veteran has hurts me a lot
"Be completely useless to your team, and maybe I'll give you this piece of armor that's near identical to the others"
forreal? what ult?
whats the perks/blessings for a headhunter autogun again
I FOUND HIM
VoC, no res shout only the overshield
Plasma is too specifically elite-oriented and doesn't have enough DPS to shred through the melee twin's shield once you pop the ranged twin in my experiences
Doesn't only the Ranged twins shield have damage resistance on ranged?
Ideally you would just want to melee both
Shield at least
is there a paid cosmetic for the plasma gun or yet to be released o_0?
The OG
What is the best melee weapon for a veteran weapon specialist build? The new chainaxe p good for it?
Or Antax / Rashad?
Plasma is alright if you want to kill Elites/Crusher while maintains a good ammo
But veteran in Twins are really just support for ogryn grenade and ammo replenishment
So is Zealot Knife in HM twins
He’s there to step on landmine

whatever you like using
its attack speed and dodge distance
so whatever you think needs some speed
is gonna work well with it
Blaze away / Get Hot / Glory Hunter are all good blessings for plasma
shame it's only 67% ammo, always look for high ammo, can dump thermal resistance for certain synergies
perks = elite / unyielding / flak / carapace
naw fam never go flak/carapace on plasma
I wouldn't say carapace is bad despite not hitting a breakpoint. Usually, people are teamshooting crushers
1/4 isnt too bad
is it bad?
It's fine
what i should change on this to use it
perks
i have no blessing for plasma gun so perk i should change them but with what
Relocating.
uhh
try and get blaze away if u can and replace volatile
i have a rank 3 blaze away
ya thats the highest
blaze is not important
blaze away only goes to tier 3
blessings aren't super important for plasma just so you know
but the perks hit BPs very hard
i feel like volatile is a waste tho cause the charge rate is not too bad
i am voice of comand enjoyer with focus target
then you probably want maniac to hit flamer breakpoint
and unyielding to hit bulwark breakpoint
xD it do be like that
but thank you guys for the help
what region are u in? if u need help farming mats idm helpin u
Second 519 is good. Flak and Unarmoured is good for melee weapons. 👍
italy
how do i cooldown my weapon?
the special button
how important is stability on agri brauto?
this gun is soo good wtf
spec dmg -> flak;
between the eyes -> infernus
(for a deadshot spam crit build)
I know what I need to change but the gun is overall really good.
Gotta farm for new rolls
considering there is no fucking way fatshark will give a skin that looks that cool
its gotta be a mod
Pretty sure that's just Sam Fisher from Splinter Cell.
Mods. Very much mods.
noice noice
let the hadron bless thee plasma gun i shall chant the chant of RNG UNGA BUNGA UNGA BUNGA FOR CADIA

thanks
Sam?
Man I am always glad when gunners or flamers shoot me while I'm getting mauled by the dog

guys
why does it feel like I end the mission with more ammo on my XII than i began with?
Imo, shocktrooper to me only is really worth the point for Laspistols
I feel like (ignoring Recon existence like the devs) you have enough ammo that few pickups are needed
I had a mutant knock a dog off of me so I could clutch and get my team up lol

saw it happen to a zealot today
they got pinned by a hound and then a mutie passed by and knocked the hound off the zealot
I want Hellbore to do more damage against poxburster
Yea, just one shot on kill ability so you can take them out easier in far range
Instead of switch weapon and shove them
Fair but I think I would prefer the 2 hit confirm to make sure I don't give my mates a Poxblast
Hit em with a bayonet to shove em

I believe it’s 3 shots for my mk2
Without taking account for any nodes and stuff
Charged Shot (100%)
80 - 80 with Maniacs and Flak IV
Usually I kill Pox with nodes in 3 shots
1.4k should be in range for a crit headshot
Also this is assuming you're 5 meter with pox walker (Not sure how inverse damage falloff gonna work here)
Too many assumption scenario, doesn't care
Yea usually you run longshot for the free 10% damage
And precision strikes
so should push it into the 1 tap range
I mean there's 10% Free damage from Range Nodes
if you shoot poxburster 8 meter = 1% damage and so forth
Focus Target should give you a lot of flat damage
also Kill Zone if you're savvy
But I want base Mk2 Hellbore to kill it in 1 shot instead of all the buff stacking ontop
tbh if you're 5ms within a pox burster you wouldn't want to shoot since that means a teammate might get fucked

Ok and?

You're here to make me plasteel, I am not a team player
what was the best perks for power sword again? Elites + ?
ye i think i got an almost perfect roll , just cant remember what the other perk was lol
man I got grabbed by a chaos spawn on a hill, someone threw a grenade to disrupt it, it dropped me below the hill's hitbox and I fell to my death
xD rip
honestly not bad, but it was hunting grounds so I could afford to spam fire quite a bit
Kinda hoverin between these 2 , the 545 looks alot better since i'll probably not be a snail anymore 
warp karkery my beloved
thankfully it wasnt round ending but bad chaos spawn >:(
I wouldn't expect a flat recon buff
last time they did they
they really regretted it
but multiple times from multiple credible peeps I heard it may get reworked
noice
it'd be cool if we could use plasma pistols... prolly wouldn't be balanced but y'know. 🚶
I wouldn't get my hopes up cause they were sure of it yet it didn't happen
fatshark giveth and fatshark taketh away
I mean, plasma pistols are reeeeeally rare
I'm like reasonably sure that won't ever change
you already have las weapons filling single fire or charge shot niches
Love laz weaps
what perk should I look for on powersword m3? I'm running plasma gun so the melee should be for horde so I guess unarmored damage?
idk much about warhammer lore but that makes sense. it does seem like a weapon reserved for current and former badasses
I like all of laz variants
lasweapons aren't my favourite, but the kantrael mg iv is nice
recon I'm waiting till it gets a rework
unarmored is overkill, flakiak for horde coverage
then I'll form an opinion
also in the markman talent tree there's mention of weapon alt fire...what is that?
m2
Rclick
a.k.a aiming down sights, bracing the weapon and stuff like that
can't lie, though. plasma pistol + power sword + commanding shout would make me feel like that one traitor captain boss. would absolutely love that lol
traitor plasma skins when?
thx - that sounds great on plasma?
yeah, but a plasma pistol is not what you would give a worthless expendable reject
no, you want to be using reg fire on plas
you right 😭🙏
the more i play, the more i find this game easy
flak dmg for perk 1, what about the second one?
the fact that we can get a regular plasma gun is a blessing from the god-emperor
highest tier of hot you have/ blaze only T3
if they ever do add plasma pistol to the game, it'd prolly have to be unlockable through very specific means. like challenges/penants. as well as other special weapons for diff classes. stuff to "prove your worth"
can take carapace / unyielding with flak in perks too
that's a much better idea than buying it from the regular shop
make it a stim-slot random consumable; 1-3 shots and it blows up lol
wait, sry, I was asking about power sword
flakiak
maybe they can make it a melk exclusive or something?
yeah, use flakiac
sry - flakiak is a slang for 1 perk or a couple?
paritally inspired by the 4th careers/dlc weapons in vermintide (except free lol)
eli5 - why I want powersword to do increase dmg to maniacs? I mean if I'm running plasma rifle?
absolutely
cos flak/maniacs cover about 90% of all threats in the game
so you can kill it without taking 4+ shots
and ye that too
stuff like flamers are maniacs
it also lets you joust muties
ah fucksake - so the attribute on sword affects my shots as well?
specials/ mutants / rager cleanup
think oni means so you can kill ragers without needing to swing at them 4 times
with a decently rolled Mk6 Psword you can kill a flesh rager with the push attack light combo
after looking it up... i think it'd also have to be unlockable 💀🙏 that thing is absolutely wild.
which is two attacks in less than a second
I mean, it's less rare than the plasma pistol
ye it's a really nice quality of life thing since you can just chunk/kill a lot of them inside your powercycle when they're in mobs
like, way less rare
can do the same to a crusher with a near-perfect roll + anim cancel
wild
push attack combo too stupid
only time to shoot crushers is if they're doing a goon squad of like 9 of them
low number of crushers and maulers should just be poke to death
not with that pws 6 combo lol
sometimes even if there is a mob
I mean, the melta could have a low ammo reserve that you can chew through quickly if you're not careful
Ive been using the chainaxe and with some vet buffs you can one shot crushers with the overhead ravage
its busted tbh
Its pretty fun
its way too much ammo to spend on guys who attack like a dark souls 1 boss
Here it comes (in 3-5 working days)
sounds fun may mess wiht tmw, new chaxe?
so - if I run plasma it's still preferable to melee ragers
depends on bps
I tend to shoot rager waves
because the kill feed fills my rodent brain with dopamine
actual efficiency may be different
meltaguns would be dope as hell now that i think about it. would it only be usable by vets tho?
Perks and blessings not the best but yeah
the silver side to infested is that the push attack one-pops hounds
maybe zealots too, cuz it fires promethium (and zealots love promethium)
consistently
thoughtso
hell give it to the ogryn but it must come with new voicelines
Give ogryns the heavy autocannons
I want to see some bigger guns on vet but I'd also like to see crafting changes before a mass of new guns get made
"Meltaguns are the most common form of weapons, coveted by soldiers for their massive close-range destructive power. There are also few things as good at cutting through armor than a melta gun, and they are often pressed into service for breaching bulkheads. As an alternative to using a meltagun with attached canisters, you may instead have a backpack and feed the line, which doubles the clip size, adds 6kg to the weight, and increases the cost by 100 thrones." so yeah, it doesn't have to be unlockable
because every time it happens your odds get even shittier on getting decent rolls
gamblers fallacy
Since when are Meltaguns the most common, I thought lasguns were cheap mass produced garbage for the Militarum wouldn’t they be much more common
either more heavy weaponry for veteran or a crafting update would be fantastic news rn
based on how powerful it was i assumed it was also a weapon mainly used by high rankers n all that. that's nutty
Gimme the backpack and idk make it overheat?
I dunno, blame the creators of this site: https://dark-heresy-rp.fandom.com/wiki/Meltagun
it's the emperor's gift pool getting progressively bigger
so it doubles everything down on spend massive amounts of currency at brunt and hadron
no you make a good point
MeltaGun -> Tank Hunting
What are they're gonna do
Introduce a chaos ogryn armored as a normal enemy encounter?
bigger weapon pool means you get even less chance at getting a useful blessing out of mission reward and I have already given up on getting a useful weapon out of t hat
altho just letting the emperor gift more than one thing
doesnt have to be the whole 'fill the bar' thing that was in vermintide
it's so randomized that it's garbage
Empra gift is simply either 8k bonus pay or free blessing gain
Here's your 1% damage weapon
or they could just make it like vermintide where the mission end loot scales if you did the side objective
or how about this
Usually 8k bonus pay
pulling suggestions out of my ass make hi int award an extra gift, Hi int shock troop combo awards two extra gifts
collecting grims/scriptures reward you with blessing unlocks at the mission end
Also Vermintide 2 ask you to "Play the side quest which is harder gameplay"
tier of which depends on difficulty
while Darktide give you same reward for doing grimmoire
Scriptures the only safe side obj
books rn are p much worthless

I mean there's docket bt eeee
I like Vermintide Books because you know what you doing, and the risks associated with it
either way its not your problem to solve
pubs got too weird about them
Guys help me decide which is the better sword , i cant really tell that much of a difference other than a marginal increase in sprint speed lol. Which would ya'll use?
it's inherently a challenge imo
Nope
ahh
And place them in obscure ass places nobody looks in
They add it down the line somewhere

so they might add red for darktide
