i think more ppl have to get use to kiting and blocking
or running I do be running away a lot XD
for actively chasing this penance, just stay out of melee combat, run past everything that wants to hit you, using shout,
let the others deal with it xD
if its on malice anyway they should be able to easily
I’m kind of new to the game and the Lora (slowly learning it and love it so far), that being said what is “shout”?
you could probably try to grind low intensity missions for it too
Voice of Command
shout is your middle veteran ability. "voice of command"
staggers everything around you
for the penance there are a few recommendations i think that are worth taking off of skill tree
Got it, I guess I have to retweet my skills tree then. If anyone has a good reference as to a skill tree loadout for a veteran running bolt gun please let me know.
one upgrades gives more toughness to you and friends,
the other lowers your radius but lets you revive people
the revive sounds extremely good, and it can be clutch,, but often usign a normal shout and manually reviving is just as safe
Ya normal shout is pretty nasty and that’s coming from a lad who prefers revive shout 
Exhilarating Takedown, Close Order Drill, Confirmed Kill, Out for Blood, Iron Will and On Your Toes --- They all either give Toughness Damage Reduction or some extra Toughness
idk i think Vet has a ton of ways to deal with it
i used to run both, gives downed teammates the toughness buff when they get back up,,, but we dont have a lot of talent points XD
needed them elsewere
this was a post with one earlier
Valid I like my nades so I can where yeeting off a shout augment or 2 could help make em funnier
not gonna lie the helbore kinda sucks dog shit it needs a rework
i love taking all grenade perks XD
oh no lil homie
can't be typing that here
naah, the hellbore is really good
The only downside to veteran toughness regen is barrier to entry
he doesn't get anything "for free" as it were
ogryn gets 25% for hitting something
psyker gets 7.5% for killing something with the warp, or doing anything with peril really
zealot gets 15% for dodging
veteran is the only one who is gated by barrier to entry
which is feelsbadman
Finally he said something I had been saying all these time

you literally get 50% for existing
Everything for veteran is condition except VoC
and you just noted a bunch of other ways with conditions
VoC would be conditional if fatshark removed situational awareness and bumped the cooldown to 45 seconds again
why the fuck they buffed VoC I have no idea
+15% toughness and 10% TDR for weakspot kills
that one is still conditioning tbh
Their condition are significantly easier to fulfil compared to Veteran
I mean VoC is really spammable rn
voc is blatantly OP 
dodging and needing a specific thing to kill isnt free
not as free as just needing to be above 75%
so just toss SA onto the pile
you don't see how the take is scewed?
Not really, considering half of its condition is take a gun and shoot
While Psyker can spam special to get toughness back with a sword
The condition to met them are significantly easier
I could shoot into a wall to get toughness back
Yeah, we're not arguing veteran is bad. Well, I'm not.
Just that his barrier to entry for toughness regeneration is higher than everyone else.
Basically that's just veteran in a nutshell really.
i didnt know that mass cleaving hordes into oblivion was hard with out for blood either
His whole tree is very high barrier to entry.
But if you can meet it, veteran's fucking stupid.
And I hate it.
I hate everything about it.
No one took out for blood because -20% sprint cost but I mean it exist ig
Skill floor too high, rewards too high.
not the point
but k
Thanks man
out for blood is kinda funny with frag grenades
not wanting to take shit has nothing to do with ease of use
as it acts like trauma staff on psyker
you immediately get 3.5x10
or whatever
on poxwalkers/groaners
Also it does require to kill something with Psyker also have but better
7.5% for warp kill or something
3.5% for any kill..
^
the only time its not is on gunker
says the guy that the others had no requirement
Yeah… I’m a space magician also there’s Crit Toughness regeneration
who gets 5% per crit
For gunker…
you're just fucking up the bad abilities even more
its called a trade off
do you realize other blitz also take tactical awareness
which is a foreing concept for players
VoC is arguably one of the best combat abilities in the game what the fuck
You get either Crit Toughness Regen, Warp Kill Regen, Get Quell/Reduce Quell
Which is funny
because you rahter just have the game be broken and monotonous
Anything you do get toughness
VoC needs to be nerfed
compared to hitting heads, hitting special
which require you to aim/find special to kill
A lot more things need nerfs as well
While quantity isn't the sole decider for if something is OP
its a good marker though.
do you have any other argument besides ''X thing popular X thing good nerf X thing''
And nearly every veteran uses VoC
Me trying to tell people Veteran Toughness Regeneration Option are conditional and significantly harder than other class
No, it allows me to do stupid shit like this
mostly because center of the tree is easy access for a lot of other good talents
And this isn't okay
I can absolutely fuck up my positioning beyond all reason with VoC
Thats not just that VOC is great, but that the other two options arn't as required/good. Especially stealth in a co-op game
and not get punished at all for it
its really fucking dumb how the overtoughness works
if you swapped VoC with Infiltrate i guarentee you would see more infiltrate cause right side of the tree is dogshit
its not just cause VoC is good
Infiltrate is pretty damn good
Shits fucking stacked what are you on
none of you guys actually do math
Press F on zealot
swing your fucking sword
congratz
We got +300 Toughness over
you've done it on zealot
to argue that 5% damage wouldnt be more beneficial than 5% crit
different argument.
That's how funny it is
like actually
I go by feels, not math 
what exactly is toughness damage reduction? like each point of toughness is worth more?
what argument you press F on zealot, gain %50 toughness, gapclose, stun everything in your face, crit your enemy
damage reduction
if you have 50% DR
and its basically a spammable
damage that hits your toughness does 50% less damage
so if you get hit with a 100 damage attack
zealot gapcloser is MORE spammable than VoC
its now 50 damage
The whole thing with zealot is to survive thou
that's because all CDR talents are blatantly op and need to be removed
that just shouldn't be something we can access
its a problem on all 4 classes
how dare abilities scale with difficulty lmao
difference is now we have ppl defending 5% crit is a reason why right side of the tree isnt ass
5% crit is literal dog shit
ah gotcha
Considering that different weapons react differently to crit it makes the maths unnecessarily complex. That said, flat 5% damage is just going to be better with other talents
But actually
thanks
It shouldn't to a degree.
the constant nerf voc cries are actually annoying me
also what even is the base crit chance?
5% for everyone
NO
blitz is grenades
ITS NOT 5% FOR EVERYONE
Each character have different crit chance, Psyker have 7.5% while Vets and Zealot have 5% (?)
NO THEY DONT
kgkhlgjfkfkh
i assume ogryn is also a 5% then?
you do not know what you are talking about lmao
Ogryn have the lowest I believe at 2.5%
like actually
veteran had his 7.5% taken away, and so did ogryn's -3%
its on the weapons now.
Stubbers have -4.5%
making ogryn have 0.5% crit chance with stubbers
as just one example
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/classes for anyone who actually cares about the base stats like crit
Im not gonna argue this because I haven't seen an actual reputable datamine in general
and all my statement are based on other's people information at some point
well, if this is true, my mistake then.
Veteran Conditional Toughness Regeneration are pretty bad
Still
All of the other class eat better
I wouldn't say bad.
Just feelsbadman
they're still good
just feelsbadman compared to everyone else
the headshot one is the most annoying due to recoil being a stat you can roll on for half the guns
so you can't muscle memory recoil control
psyker with 1 base stamina bar 
not as effectively as static recoil patterns anyway
Headshot one is dumb, simply because the condition was use a range weapon
imo vet feels fine in terms of toughness and stuff. Some things could be tweaked but it’s not as big of a deal as most say
it is just fine
ppl like to complain
power sword go brrrrrrrr
i moved over from zealot
get 10% x 4 back with combat axes
vet is brain dead when it comes to survivability
so a free 40% toughness no matter what
ignoring VoC
it has mad options for toughness interaction
I mean Zealot Survivability are way stronger if you learn the weapon's moveset
I never really played zealot but iirc doesn’t vet have second highest toughness and hp next to ogryn
which is surprising easier after Heavy Evis got buffed
and you need toughness when fighting in melee fight
lol no
I believe zealot is capable of the 2nd highest
that's what out for blood is for
Order for it is uhhh
Ogryn, Zealot, Veteran, psyker for HP
But the problem was getting into Out-For-Blood lose out so much for you
Ogryn > Zealot > Vet > Psyker i think
Ogryn, Veteran, Zealot, Psyker for toughness
Vet has the highest base toughness
and you can stack on top of it
uhhh
whats the max for vet?
LMAO
Right, right
And Veteran Class have a really fucked up Tree that require a lot of investment
if you're running deadshot your vet will be more or less as squishy as psyker if not more
Ogryn has lots of nodes for toughness that might bring it above vet but I do think vet has higher base, I don’t remember
Ogryn at 50
Did. . . you read what I wrote?
psyker builds dont have to build stamina curio so they can just stack 2 toughness 1 hp
That said, ogryn can get 230 toughness
Base its higher yea
on vet you tend to throw 1 or 2 stam curio for deadshot
I think typical builds will get zealot at a very close point to vet
and >90% damage reduction depending on selected talents otherwise
Some people are into that
I put 3 health curios on my ogryn 
2x toughness 1x stamina is my goal for veteran
Zealot get into an insane Toughness Damage Reduction
for now I'm just running 2x toughness 1x hp
zealot is pretty unkillable with certain builds
Wait wait
especially when you build crits
effective hp is higher due to certain talents
I thought ogryn had toughness DR nodes
Did you read what the reply was to?
am zealot main so yes
I've had a lot of games on zealot where I just kept going on like no hp forever
You'll still have the most toughness with vet
The only way Zealot could die is probably CD invulnerablity + overhead
It has two +25 toughness near the top
this
Assuming you take every +toughness and toughness talent nodes
taking both +25 is an odd build
hey, came here to ask for a meta build or whatever builds are good, i'm guessing they mostly synergize with the weapon too?
I take both 25 on veteran and ogryn
not the point we're making tho
Yeah, Veteran's Tree Building are primary revolves around Damage Damage Damage
ogryn its easy to do so
I haven't seen Veteran Tank Build yet
you can go for that but realistically you're a melee build at that point
its easy to do on veteran too
you just don't get +30% weakspot damage or +25% ammo
and even then you dont need keystones so you could still get away with it
I mean, the +25's are in here
Can't believe you aren't getting the damage
I’d rather die before not taking +30% weakspot damage lol
in scoreboard farming simulator
yeah, and I exclusively run swap swap on veteran
Plasma, all toughness curios, born leader, glory hunter
Very possible
Im already disappointed that you took born leader
with a 9 point investment to get both for both 25's

you don't even need that
it's okay
you just need elites
again you're just a different zealot at that point
and confirmed kill
If youre going TANK
and exhi takedown for dr
You're taking born leader
except you dont spam crits like a zealot does
you're invulnerable if you're not getting meleed
Because of glory hunter
but maybe have a bit more ranged power
3 toughness at a time gaming ✊
this has to be one of the most braindead convos
Well
cause every class can get into the 150-250 toughness range
We be balling out of Hadron with 3 Toughness
I kinda forget what the current topic is
Assuming you take every +10 coherence toughness share
yup
its brain dead
Which is like 2
250 is just a fuckin even number i used so seethe abt it not being actually acheivable
since the fire changes, this is the correct way
Glory hunter can do soomething
im not doing the math rn for it
HP is kinda pointless except for bursters
and with VoC being what it is
even that's not really useful
200+ toughness is unnnecessary as fuck too ngl
Wasn't that like vet just can get the most toughness
when you could be at max toughness easy
200 toughness is life saving on most things
mroe toughness, less chip damage
Oh yea
more toughness is always better
It makes you able to take 2-3 hits before significant damage is done
VoC > Burster anyways
staying at max toughness mroe often = no damage
Or ogrn but ogryn has more toughness damage reduction
no ChipDamage
i dont get the point of that response
In the tree
lmao
or tank entire sniper shots on ogryn
take no chip instead of less chip
its outright impossible to stay at max toughness without outright cheating
no one is doing 0 damage runs on damnation+
Can’t take health damage in the psykanium
ARE YOU JOKING?!
Well, assuming you take sniper dr
Feel no pain is absolutely goated
Nah Disabled
suggestions?
so chip damage is always relevant
and bulwarks, maulers
Overhead is not a threat if you just VoC
Are you talking about the invincibility thing? Thought that only applied to toughness
the overtoughness does giga DR for chip damage from ragers
im unsure of the exact setup for it on ogryn so
literally got overwatch 3 days ago in auric lmao
Nope, I died in Psykarium a lot, update the new mod i guess
Pretty sure poxbursters would leave you with corruption even if they didn’t do direct health damage, normally
completely possible to take no damage in even auric and be at max toughness all game
As long you have Yellow Touhgness
bugging tf out
Nothing hurt over it
Saying VoC will always negate _ in any real combat scenario is probably untrue anyways
What 2 perks should I get on plasma ?
Well, iirc you can get like 70% toughness Dr from what I heard
no that's the thing
yellow toughness even stop crushers from bleeding through
in practical application
Flak
VoC does just outright prevent all of that from happening
its stupid and shouldn't function that way
Should I do flak and unyielding ?
this isn't bricked right?
knockback plus more toughness is fine
I watch as my discord get pinged 2000% times
completely preventing damage is not 
why did you nearly die on your video then 
No No No, ask someone else, flak doesn't do anything on Plasma
Wait, do you have the toughness damage reduction at high toughness? @strange sparrow

smh
When you did that test
Hey smudgels what perks should I get on my plasma?
You could do it with no curios, just VoC
falter to no respite. Carapace to flak.
Don't even need IronWill
mk1 has a fast enough fire rate that surgical doesn't make sense.
anyone willing to help me 
Yellow Toughness have different coding with it
Maniac, Elite, Flak, unarmored, carapace, unyielding all give you breakpoints
Maniac+ one of the others
its nice to have tbh
is your go to
I do on the mk3
just not the 1
it pew pews
lean into that
mk2 is the fast one
Yellow Toughness just straight up neglect anything that would normally fuck your toughness and chip into HP
Have you used it with onslaught?
mk1 is the middleground
For Example, Overhead Crusher
unarmoured+, and Carapace if you're not running Longshot, with +30% weakpoint damage, + Elite damage in talent tree
If you do run long shot, +10% elites, and carapace with +30% weakpoint damage, and +15 elite damage in that talent tree
Its definitely fast enough that surgical slows down your DPS
yes, its still better to have surgical
on a gun that doesn't need infinite ammo
So really, you would have skill issue if you can't win with VoC
you're already ammo positive with survivalist
you still get a benefit for staying in ads
whats the question
as VoC allow you to regen those +50 toughness
You should ask in #gameplay-help, you’ll probably have better luck there
%10-20 even if you shoot fast
you're missing osbps on maniacs with that stopping power 
I tested it, and I could effectively keep VoC up 44% of the time without killing special or getting psyker CD stuff
me when people dont understand how toughness works so they are saying wacky shit
Low SP sucks, but you should get rid of critical strike chance for +unarmoured imo
Or if you run long shot, then get +10 elites
yup
fr
test your breakpoint on Dredge gunner BP
I'm looking for meta/good builds people use, and some weapon recommendations, so far I've been enjoying autoguns
fuckin uh
as VoC is 10 Seconds and Based VoC CD is 30 seconds, I take Ability Regeneration so it's alright
could do a Rashad/IAG build
I think everyone takes ability regen
Why unarmored over like the other perks like flak or cara?
VoC
I doubt any other stuff matter because how strong is yellow toughness
been playing for a week or less, idk what that means
yea 1 sec im making a build pic for youj
This is the only reason i can call VoC broken, but then so is Chorus on Zealot
Bonus Toughness is crazy
+unarmoured so you can meet the dredge gunner BP
If you don't run Longshot
Its because you want to be able to kill dredge gunners with a uncharged shot by shooting them in the head
Zealot Chorus have problem because it's not regenerable
I don't really fuck with Chorus that much anymore
There are gonna be alot more dredge gunners than crushers in any given mission so I value +unarmoured and I firmly believe that you should meet this Breakpoint without Longshot, but its not bad if you run longshot
It just means you need to meat that minimum distance (which isn't difficult)
fuckin love forgetting my vet build
it got nuked imo
If you take +elites you can also get abit more damage on other enemies too which is why it's pretty good too
Based CD also pretty bad with Chorus at 60 Seconds
i know ppl tell me to stop whining about chorus but im not gunna
Not that I think it'll change BP's but I haven't done tests on that
So I only use Chorus when I want to play as a support Zealot

since fatshark changed it to every other pulse stuns bosses, it broke the stun function on everything
which is infuriating
half the enemies ignore the stun/suppression mechanic now
because people were pushing bosses off of ledges
Blame Josh
you can still get bosses to fall off of ledges no?
Also, imo I wouldn't take flak, plasma has like (AP like characteristics)
There's not much Flak that you won't be able to one shot already
its good to have but often times unrealistic to reach without voc
no ive seen vets with 200 tougness
im at 175 with 1 curio
I appreciate it
so its definatley not hard
I didn't say impossible?
Which is why carapace>flak
People build Meta like this with IAG/Shredder grenade, I don't do so because I like Krak more
pointless to sacrifice everything for toughness
1 moment am checkin in game
never said you did
eeh
most vets dont run deadshot
and a lot of ppl like toughness
mfs be sitting on zero stamina, zero hp, no stamina/block efficiency, no deadshot
how about weapons, idk what should i use
Are you levelling up or 30?
you will see a chunk of people running around with 15% toughness curios
Grenade regen over tinkerer for shredder?
That's wiild
In my honest opinion, use whatever you enjoy most.
Doesn’t matter what’s best, use whatever’s the most fun / comfortable to kill with
a lot of people value different things
well i will eventually, im just lvl 18
you also have people telling them to focus weird shit
What does this need ?
I mean it's a meta build so people just spam toss grenade in a pinch
having more grenade imo is better
YT personalities also like to tell players to focus 12% CDR for VoC
i will always say no to that
I'm also not dropping precision or %25 ammo for the second 25 node either
3.6 seconds off of VoC isn;t that good
a whole like 4 seconds off when you already have a talent to reduce reduction by 6 seconds per kill?
You could try Rashad Axe, Devil Claw 4 and Columnus Mark 5 (IAG)
exactly
Folks build this without a keystone? That's crazy
worth the trade off to make veteran feel like veteran and not just different zealot
the 12% doesnt even really change the amount of kills you need for the reset
Try urself out a iG lazgun, is pretty fast and with a ok stability stat can do numbers 
OY?!
I just have like Exe stance, focus target for my iag build
how often is that 4 seconds going to save your entire run lol
actually its not wrong, sometimes focus target feels like over kill
Cause funny
Nope, I will not give a fuck to whatever people say about Focus Target
This is my Rashad/IAG build @vivid bolt but then again , I know nothing of Veteran and just play like my Zealot
Nice TTK but it's ew to remember to ping
nah i was agreeing with you
Idk there is no build iag wouldn't synergize with
chill lmao
I think focus target for an IAG aint bad
you can use whatever keystone with iag
i use focus target not for the damage
@sonic marlin this is the melee vet build that I run currently
What's your rashad looking like?
I'm taking Fire team because I'm missing a tiiiinny bit of damage to get a crusher 4 shot
Also, Go right side and pick up Onslaught over other stuff because Onslaught allow you to kill Crusher with Columnus
roll over when crusher pack show up lol
^
Something like this
Crushers dont threaten me so
Onslaught + rending strikes is crazy
- Its a claw.
- Krak.
- Crushers are fucking easy.
do you just let others deal with them?
Gonna remember dis for my iag
kraks are limited
Yea Krak moment
2 kraks for the whole 6 of em 
melee as in you barely use your rifle?
what happens when 5 crushers run at you?
I do be fuckin with this build
Weapon spec columnus?
prolly a like
75% melee, 25% gun typa thing
I would take Krak too but Shredder is more popular these days
Le Rashad
ive got melee heavy habits cuz zealot main
So in general, point people toward Shredder until they have problem with Bulwark/Crusher
You're already shredding crushers
isn't zealot the melee class?

I mean yea but Crusher + Bulwark Stack are pretty annoying

zealot is strong at melee yea but every class should be primarily doing melee outside a staff psyker
I gotta climb back on the rashad grind
I want to deletus them as soon as possible
nah take kraks, i still believe you should only really take them IF you cant deal with crushers and IF you dont wanna put in extra effort for Bulwarks --- I think that's fair to say
Gonna say it
i don't take onslaught when i rock columnus either
Melee is your love in this game
i just use a power sword or a 12chaxe
I wouldn't recommend any new/leveling player taking on Psword
because how grindy it is
You can try
i am loving the hellbore mk2 stab, and overall speed, but i am missing the consistent damage from mk3 xD
not yet changed blessing perks,, need more materials to get the blessings
Oh my god, my BM isn't 15%
Everyone have their way to deal with Crusher/Bulwark nowadays
Just try anything and tweak accordingly
PSword actually has a divergent blessing issue imo
That's literally my fire team aura crusher BP difference
onslaught seems like a waste of points to deal with specifically crushers
the 1-2 blessings on PSword completely changes how the weapon plays imo
at least knowing vet with melee can just blitz crushers with like 5 weapons
I mean yeah, But I like to shoot crusher in the face
Its for columnus deletus
instead of getting into his melee range
i understand that
I'd like to see how you d.claw a pack of crushers tbh 
btw, does all the melee nodes in talent tree, work on hellbore stabs?
sounds like a fun time
Yes also Agile Engagement
It is quite do-able
but running 2 points for columnus deletus on a rare enemy when i can just power-sword block-combo them is wasteful
Me as I dodge and force every overhead for a minute straight
😌
ive seen vids of people parrying a rager + crusher pack consistently
idk
currently running that, was curious for the other stuff.
its fucking such a dopamine release
i comprehend you can do that 
Its just not ideal
sometimes just shooting the guy is safe especially in stacks tho
yeah that's a fair argument
Thing about Veteran is, it depend on people’s playstyle
oh yea does field improvisation talent affect your teammates or only yourself?
every crate/pack you or anyone puts down, ever
Effects all
So your teammates too
@strange sparrow was thinking about all the others, if its worth going more heavily into the melee perks as i end up stabbing more than shooting
I would say @wanton dawn did a good guide on Mk2 spear build

Field Improv is a must pick for me tbh
You could references his content
will look it up ^_^
thanks
getting grenades from packs is WILD
I believe he posted on steam so just look it up with link
As he spam it multiple time in this discord
5 ogryn nukes from pack... mmmm...
4 immolation grenades...
Yea I agree but fuck my team
IM BALLING DAMAGE

field improv carries Twins btw
oh yea what shovel would you guys say is the best of the 3
give ogrynheimer his nades for smooth sailing
field improv is really fucking good but i dont run it in pugs bc no one tries to get value out of it
Foldable
foldable mk 3
so would u say the melee wep ur using is the best for veteran?
prolly not the best
vet has like 7 viable meta melee weps
Dclaw ain't the best
its all fun and games till you time a parry but 3 of them overhead at different intervals
🥹
my people
Dclaw is me self handicapping myself
but. . . that would mean the dclaw would have to be bad first
Because Powersword rot my brain
and. . . its not
"not the best" for vet isnt much of a difference cause its Power Sword V Fucking everything in terms of meta
Rashad, but I wouldn't think about it too hard now
Since rashad is very hard to build for
damn you fast with those XD
thanks!!

rashad combat axe vs everything
i've been following these builds but after i tried plasma gun and hated it i think its not a good idea to continue
It’s bad because it’s not the best
power sword mk6 is second place

I mean I will say, try it again when you're 30
they arent the worst
eh i just fuckin hate the braindead nature of rashad
I put everything below Psword and Rashad rn tbh
All the guns before max level feel terrible
since it naturally reaches bruisers breakpoints with 10% melee damage and flak/unarmored
They have the worst stats in the game
:f: 🅰️ :i: :r:
Psword just abusive with no talent investment require
too lazy to do regional indicator
i just don't know what to use for now, what could be the best weapon that can ADS?
most of the builds on gameslantern website dont have a lot of insight or much care for what's strong or could work efficiently
^
colomnus IAG
one of the most upvoted posts on there is still the double rend accatran laser spam
or mgiv
and that's like
Ads...
Lasgun if you want to do an exe stance build with focus target
Mainly the Kantrael Ia
swept by any columnus build with mild gamesense
reminds me of that zealot "meta" build on there
Idk most melee options are pretty ok for veteran
I would highly suggest an autoclicker mod with MGIV though
Revolver
Mg1a is also good
Columnus without blessing us fuckin autistic
You ever wanted to bring 2 melee weapons and 1 ranged weapon at the same time?
and doesn't require the autoclicker
The slow revolver is one of the best guns in the game
knife, shovel, chaxe, combat axe
I’m can carry in auric mael with it
you got options
I hate knife
i hate knife i hate knife i hate knife i hate knife i hate knife i hate knife
i hate knife i hate knife i hate knife i hate knife
i hate knife i hate knife i hate knife i hate knife i hate knife i hate knife i hate knife i hate knife i hate knife i hate knife i hate knife
again there are still ppl trying to argue the 3.6 seconds off of VoC is the most value you get from curios
I think I broke puri
The mxii lasgun is power crept but it's a workhorse
And I hate everyone that uses it, even me.
huh 
they dont care because math doesnt matter
Helbore lasgun mk1 or mk2
Still decent if you want to do semi auto firing
and yes, I use combat knife sometimes on vet
its ok, I'm used to it
I like the new knife
Alot of this stuff doesn't matter until you reach level 30 though
All the guns pre-30 feel terrible and suck eggs
I've been trying to roll the dodge crit chance blessing

Columnus feels nice 100% of the time
Except revolver 😌
dont lie
but rng is not on my side
Level 5 vet with a columnus be like-
we need more Church members and you scaring them off
Look, I'm leveling a new vet, I tried to carry with the burst iag
The worst mistake in my life
nah
columnus is my main weapon as vet whos leveling up lol
the best
Headhunter autoguns have a huge discrepancy in recoil depending on the stability roll
get some of that columnus spice in early
I don't know if you remeber
I fuckin hate how Naming Scheme is in Darktide thou
What the fuck is columnus Agripinaa Zorona
you must have had shit stability
They also had damage mods of like 5
Or 15
Planet origins
Yes early iags have 10
Yeah, Columus is weapon type, Agripinaa is the forge world
it is not the best description on how and what the weapons do in game
It’s just lore stuff, it’s whatever to me
isnt this similar to how we name guns irl tho?
like actually?
Especially when you start out on the game, it's so difficult to know which gun is good
Uh
i think its just for flavor
IRL guns have classification on what they do in games most of the time
I just tell every new player to play chainsword and revolver/IAG
I mean it's not like real world weapons are Saying "3 shot burst rifle, 5.56 chamber, Bullpup" as their names. It'd be a bit odd.
Most gun names are just like the creators name
They’re like the easiest to use weapons by far
and futhermore, it have tooltip telling you what it does
Infantry AutoGun, what does that mean FatShark
Does that mean all these gun shoot fast
What is an m3
CoD? bATTLEFIELD?
which games show what the guns do or what they are for pre-gameplay?
Alotta gun shoot fast, but not all shoot fast
An m1911
CoD and Battlefield does too, telling you SMG/Rifle
and give you a tooltip
yeah but saying battle rifle and assault rifel doesnt tell the intended gameplay
Also my last CoD is Mw2 and Battlefield is BF3
the game definitely could be clearer on the intended role of each weapon
I mean
because thats an umbrella and the play different based on what they were actually meant for
I mean BattleRifle, you would assume it's single fire already so...
like you have close ranged assault rifels
Like
i was very confused when i first started
When you shoot the gun a few times you can figure out what role it wants
but they arent
so many different marks
battle rifles can be used as single fire or modded for close range engagements
Battle rifles are select fire
^
even in cod
you get to the point where battle rifels are just heavier assault rifels
it doesnt tell you shit
lmao
I would disagree so because I don't have the problem selecting a weapon most of the time in COD, even in some genre that can't use the same weapon's name
it's way more overwhelming in Darktide Weapon selection compared to Other game
If I want to be pedantic, new cod also let's you mod guns to a point where they're intended use gets very muddled
It's a mess
i mean you also have close to long range in each category too
not even just a battle rifle thing
And uh smgs somehow beat assault rifles in all ranges
which is fucking dumb
I wish there were a reason to run the vraks
but the mg12 is just better than it in uh
every single way
I also hope they went with VT2 Naming Scheme with the Psyker Staff
Vraks3 is different tho
Because I do not know what the fuck is Void/Surge/Purg staff is in the earlier days
Purg is like
Kinda intuitive
Like oh fucking uh fire
Surge is like lightning
What the fuck is a void
*shrug
Yeahhh
Braced auto guns and iags are
and then columnus IAG being the high ROF version, while for braced it's graia
bruh
I mean if you want to get picky
Smg vs carbine
The game does a very very shit job in telling you what gun does what
yup
But iags don't exactly seem like smgs
i agree with this but there is also heuristics
cause they certainly fire a larger round than a pistol round
also I would blame Blessings System that make the gun functional or bad
they arent
this?
If no one use PowerCycler on Psword when you start out, you just be like
yep
This is trash man
I still think that power cycler just needs to be removed from the game
This is why I would wait until max level
Because they’re technically assault style rifles
Agripinaa 1 is supposedly a battle rifle mimic
Graia 8 is supposedly the standard rifle
And Columnus 5 is supposedly the rapid fire SBR
just remove that shit already
But buying a columnus now isn't a bad idea
The thing about this game is some blessing just outright make the weapon So much fuckin better
yeah, the IAGs are just rifle facsimiles from real life
like a gigantic big margin
and then what
Columnus is fine
I dunno
Then try all the guns we mention
Only shredder autopistol would be classified as a “pistol”
All the other autoguns are rifles

sometimes warping them completely
some bastard child mcx or something who knows
columnus is more like a famas with double the mag size tbh
Other time, The blessing is straight up dogwater
Nah agripinaa 1 is much closer to how SCAR-H is usually depicted in games
Yeah that is maybe abit unhealthy
because rng games HAVE to have garbage
3 of them are super op, 7 of them are super ??????????
Boarderlands solidified that game concept
AK is more like the braced autoguns
I'm just going off of RPM
650/800
and whatever the graia is
I havent used the graia IAG in ages
Agripinaa 1 is really slow at like 461rpm
Graia 8 is at 600rpm
Columnus 5 is at 800rpm
but they're all, graia/columnus/agrip, definitely just "Standard shooty shooty bang bang"
oh huh they feel faster than that ingame
only way to tell is to count it out
yes
but this is fatshark
dont expect too much so early
Yeah its needlessly complex
They didn't exactly explain many dlc weapons in v2 this is just a level of like
How they do
Agripinaa1’s firerate is so low it’s prob to mimic semi auto fire without making it semi auto
Vt2 naming scheme are super dumb down so you could just use it straight
UMP45 is 600~650rpm
I don’t name my spear something like
What the heck does Tuscan mean for my Tuscan spear
UBERSTRICK STANDARD ISSUE STICK-METAL
but again
the way they name thins in this game is like a presentation show
Does this main it's this class of sword???
Its just how they did it
Yes flavour
Because all of these names
Are lore planets
Agrinapinna
Flavour is nice but I get utterly confused to hell
matter of fact
Manufacturer names
We.are the testers
^
I mean it's an okay way to force everyone to try out a gun, rather than be like
I don't like smgs I don't wanna try it
Oh yea Lasgun look nice, they all work the same (right?)
War is a great way to test new patterns, probably 

I don't like snipers I don't wanna try it
neither the bolter
While I've personally done while playing cod
Why I quit game without 5 seconds earlier on
Damn this weapon hella shit
Bolter and las weapons are pretty on point in terms of lore accuracy
well the Bolter USE to be lore accurate
then it got toned down
.>
The state of modern cod has been a disaster for its franchise
Most of these best min maxed weapons don't even have a stock
It’s still alright
Like wth
Autoguns are supposed to be like
Up to 30r mags
U can’t carry that much ammo
Yeah I like the sound design for the lasgun, because the sound a lasgun makes is more of a crack than pew pew
I mean I thought this was like
An older gen bolter
We we're not special for real astartes bolters
Older would be better (if you're not primaris marines)
We can't use real astartes bolters
WH40K mags are more buckets of bullets than they are magazines
We are using sister of battle kind of bolters
Or Arbites
I don’t mean like weapon balance, I mean just general depiction on basic stuff
An astartes bolter are like venerated, tech priests likely scavenge the battlefield for any they can scavenge
dont the sisters of battle have a bit smaller bolters?
I thought Sisters had bigger too honestly as they rock power armour. But Arbites bolt gun ye
This is probably why we use one
Sisters is smaller than Astartes bolter 100%
Most of the Bolters we used are mini-Space Marine Bolter
