#

so just shooting at them will give you max pinning fire stacks instantly

#

and that's like the single best time to magdump a bolter anyway

#

does 8% elites actually give you any breakpoints

#

or is it just for a little extra granular damage on mauler/crusher to add to any other team damage being dealt

strange sparrow
#

The reason why I went for Surgical is often time I find myself running out of ammo trying to mag dump

drifting oak
#

doesn't bolter get lie zero bonus crit damage though

#

like an absurdly low amount of bonus damage on-crit

#

or did they change that

quick steeple

#

I went unarmored on that chaxe

#

high IQ concept

#

I hit maniacs like never and hit those unarmored scabs all the time

#

the 1 hit is very nice

#

Why is it every helbore game there's 1-2 ogryns in my face..

golden nacelle
#

Anything ya'll would change here?

umbral scaffold
#

ideally you get a plasma gun with more ammo but that's of little consequence as long as you can manage it properly

#

blessings are all perfect

knotty hill
#

Which lucius helbore is the best?

umbral scaffold
#

just make the perks t4 and I think you're solid

golden nacelle
#

take something instead of maniac?

umbral scaffold
#

Maniac is good still too

golden nacelle
#

I can only change one perk

flint lake
umbral scaffold
#

yeah that's probably better longterm

golden nacelle
#

the unyielding is nice for the monstrosities

flint lake
#

I’d just swap out the axe for a Devil claw

golden nacelle
#

but those fights are rarer

flint lake
#

Plasma already has got elite armour covered so your weapon should lean into hoard clearing to complete the balance

golden nacelle
#

My axe? My baby?

#

You're kidding right? lol

#

amazing hoard clear

umbral scaffold
#

if he has brutal momentum

golden nacelle
umbral scaffold
#

yeah it still eats hordes

golden nacelle
#

Its godroll

umbral scaffold
#

yeah that still kills most hordes np

#

solid af

flint lake
#

The antax works well regardless but the Devil claw is better at hoard clearing and defending against ragers

umbral scaffold
#

plus
plasma is actually a good horde clear weapon anyway

#

the only thing it does is be less efficient at times

#

and require ammo infusion

golden nacelle
#

My axe 2shots ragers

umbral scaffold
#

but if you're good you don't need much

flint lake
#

Can you fight 3 ragers with your axe?

golden nacelle
#

easily

#

Thing is a beast

flint lake
#

Then whatever works for u

golden nacelle
#

only thing I struggle with is too much ranged, if I cant close the distance

flint lake
#

Devil claw’s parry kicks their ass but if you can manage packs of ragers in melee without it good on yah

golden nacelle
#

with the plasma at least. My best build I run Brauto, which has no issies anywhere really

#

issues

They need to update the note on that

flint onyx
#

Can I use this with full bore and deathsplitter or do I need to change both blessings? hmmnoted

#

Or no respite and deathspitter

rapid hedge
#

fullbore is a must for agripina cause of the special shot

flint onyx
#

Okay, how about deathspitter, do I keep it and change special to maniac or leave perks and change both blessings?

rapid hedge
#

keep deathspitter for now

quick steeple
#

no respite is must-have on shottys

#

its head&shoulders better

hybrid token
#

no respite is mandatory

quick steeple
#

No Respite + Fullbore on Agrip[ina

rapid hedge
#

i mean if u want ur special shot to always have a flat damage boost id say full bore

#

ya no respite + fullbore is the best combo. ur perks seem good tbh

gray finch
#

what about manstopper on agrippina with a deadshot

flint onyx
#

No respite and full bore it is, thanks guys

quick steeple
gray finch
#

slug stops on 1 rager

strange sparrow
weak token
#

the slug is too small of a projectile to have much meaningful cleave most of the time

#

if u want to one shot multiple ragers or something, the revolver would probably be way better

#

and way faster since u dont need to load another slug if you miss the cleave

gray finch
#

norespite literally never proc unless you want to kill stuff with 2 shots

#

i see it work on ogryns only

weak token
#

honestly agripina shotgun is just too niche due to its blessings despite its versatility

vivid bolt
weak token
#

its a shotgun that u wanna use from longer ranges, which instantly fks over deathspitter and fire frenzy for the most part, leaving no respite and fullbore as its more usable options

#

its spread is also quite tight for a shotgun, which fks over scattershot too

#

so as much as i would like a scattershot manstopper agripina so that it'd function as a funni accurate bolter, it's kinda hard to do so

cold shuttle
#

Ey, I seen a couple of vets doing the recon lasrifles. Any tips on blessings and perks for those?

#

Used to enjoy v1d a lot a year ago or so

weak token
#

deathspitter is solid as well

#

if u want to u can run infernus with headhunter, but wouldnt really recommend, imo those are the memey blessings

#

recons just arent really too usable in the meta right now

#

but they can work with the right build

cold shuttle
#

memey because? just fotm

#

or too good? 😄

quick steeple
#

very undertuned compared to all other guntypes

cold shuttle
#

but the blessings?

#

make a rifle ok?

#

im just pugging damnation

#

sure, I could go autogun or whatever, but I cba to buy/roll for one

#

but I know i have some decent recons lying about

finite imp
#

empra blessed me

#

dum dum and it's a godroll right

crude ermine
#

Yes

finite imp
#

or deathspitter

#

obv im replacing raking

#

then the question is upgrad maniac perk or FF

thick wolf
#

what do I need to make this lasgun be good in damnation

slate sleet
# finite imp

i dont think you people understand how low range "close range kill" really is

#

you need to stick your barrel up someones ass for it to count

idle carbon
#

8m

#

it used to be 15m, then they decided to change it for no good reason, without telling anyone

slate sleet
#

yeah because it was free dmg

#

now it only works if you are melee range magdumping

idle carbon
#

works for maulers

finite imp
#

can someone explain to me what the fuck a salvo is exactly

#

is that pull trigger let go of trigger?

tall torrent
finite imp
#

1 salvo?

#

gotcha

#

sup numbers cat

idle carbon
finite imp
#

so is fire frenzy no good then?

slate sleet
#

duurrr

tall torrent
slate sleet
#

slavo is just shooting in bursts

finite imp
slate sleet
#

its not very good in most cases

#

as you are shooting most stuff nonstop

#

in "damnation" that is

#

:^)

finite imp
#

so deathspitter and dum dum would probably be my go to

tall torrent
#

You can get away with a lot of things for IAGs

idle carbon
#

if you're going for duck n dive shenanigans, stripped down can work nicely

finite imp
#

i just use cover

#

and slide

#

my stamina is maxed so

slate sleet
#

dum dum and sustained fire are the best agri 1 perks

idle carbon
#

laugh in the face of the dozen gunners unloading at your face as you sprint directly at them

slate sleet
#

they work at any range and provide you with consisten damage

finite imp
slate sleet
#

if you are playing well on any gun build you will never really get any damage from all the close range damage boost blessings

#

stuff will simply never reach you

#

not to mention its literally a green item with no blessings against any ranged enemy

idle carbon
#

depends on what build you're using the gun on
I have both close range damage blessings on my columnus IAG, works fine on my WS commando vet

#

yes, even on damnation

finite imp
#

im a melee vet so

slate sleet
#

so they are even worse

#

when do you ever take out your gun to shoot something point blank instead of meleeing it

finite imp
#

im not hyper worried about my ranged damage i just wanna optimize it

slate sleet
#

if anything you take it out to kill a incoming disabler

finite imp
slate sleet
#

and 90% of the time that will be outside the range those blessings trigger

finite imp
#

that's how you proc it

slate sleet
#

there are way better guns for weapon specialist agile engagement synergy

finite imp
#

brother we play differently, I'm wanting hard numbers, not how you play

idle carbon
#

because magdumping the shooters that are in your face kills them faster than melee, plus it suppresses them and keeps them from attacking you
also to get the extra WS bonuses

finite imp
#

you play how you want it that's cool

slate sleet
#

lol

#

whatever you say

finite imp
#

that's what i say

crisp bronze

@vital garnet Here is my skill tree. The first image is my meta slave Revolver and Rashad setup like I said I need every melee bonus in the tree for my axe to one-tap bruisers could probably change if yours is better. You can use any grenades you want. I just use smokes cause I like them and they lead into the 10% melee damage node.
Second image is the setup I use specifically when I have another Vet with ammo aura. Again I use smokes cause it leads to the 10% melee damage node. If you want to use different nades you can drop either the extra 25% ammo or Field Improv for Kraks. Drop both for Frags.

umbral scaffold

game uhh why cant i go forward while im crouched?

#

i hate it

Can you go backwards

analog crescent

what's the difference on the devil's claw swords?

gaunt hinge
#

attack pattern

analog crescent
#

ooh

#

can you elaborate more?

idle carbon
#

claw1 is all horizontals for horde clear
claw4 is a mix, with heavy 1 being an overhead and heavy 2 being horizontal, with easy combos for both
claw7 is also a mix, but with reversed heavies of claw4 and a longer overhead combo

#

most people like claw4 for easy access to overhead heavy

gaunt hinge
#

claw 1 has a strikedown in its lights

thick wolf

this is why you bring in krak grenades

Instant knockover

does that work through the bulwark shield?

#

they need to give us a way to burn diamantine

crude ermine
strange sparrow
#

like how docket is

strange sparrow
#

then now you're plasteel poor and diamantine poor

sonic marlin
crude ermine
#

I'd remove the toughness regen

crude ermine
#

For res

finite imp
#

as the empra intended

strange sparrow
#

That's like very far away from scrap/revamp tbh

crude ermine
#

Gunners are my preference but you can also go snipers if you want to

strange sparrow
#

more like just "more bullshit" into the crafting system

faint violet
finite imp
crude ermine
#

I like running +5 toughness

+5 health

+20% gunner res

finite imp
#

ok

sonic marlin
#

almost decent, can i also change the perks here only twice?

frank basin
#

Micro individual vs macro masses

strange sparrow
#

They're probably gonna start asking us to pay diam to change apperances

frank basin
#

Fatshark prefer macro masses

strange sparrow
finite imp
crude ermine
#

Just like everything else, so choose wisely

strange sparrow
#

the crafting system right now are so "tuned"

finite imp
#

the way they've treated the cosmetics in game is pretty shameless

strange sparrow
#

Doubt much change would be made in any future

sonic marlin
#

also i need to change my build, i was following something from Gameslantern but ended up choosing random stuff the 10ish last talent points

strange sparrow
#

except red item (Hopium)

faint violet
frank basin
#

Copium and hopium

finite imp
#

they seriously need to add some more earnable cosmetics THAT ACTUALLY LOOK GOOD

#

like dude i kill half a million enemies and I get a FRAME?

#

yikes

sonic marlin
#

idk whats good tbh

crude ermine
#

May I see your tree?

finite imp
sonic marlin
crude ermine
#

I'd like to pick out some things and I'll let you know what's worth changing

#

Oh

finite imp
#

do you like melee? if so, WS

crude ermine
#

Ok

finite imp
#

if not, do you like to spot targets?

#

if so middle tree

#

don't wanna do any of that? left tree

#

but if you look at other builds everyone kinds spreads out

sonic marlin
vernal harbor
#

Posting my build because im unsure if its busted or not, i take less than 100hp damage every mission, never get downed unless im tossed from a ledge, dont run out of ammo, can powersword melee elite horde solo, havent lost a game with it since i made it and it seems to keep my team highly supplied and protected. Just in case someone wanted to try a grenadier thing (this isnt a super tailored build its just random stuff i use)

crude ermine
sonic marlin
#

i was kinda following these 3 builds

sonic marlin
crude ermine
#

It's an noob trap and the left node is just better

#

It allows you to save a point for something else

#

Because you're basically cutting your voc potential in half with it unfortunately

#

Everything else you have is pretty good

finite imp
#

you can literally VOC near a downed teammate and start picking them up

#

nothing can stop you from succeeded barring a burster

#

the stun lasts just long enough

crude ermine
#

Tho I'd take off the node next to the iron will

#

Because you have the grenade Regen node

slate sleet
#

finally some good food

faint violet
#

Its time to cheak out how much it is worth.

crude ermine
#

Fun

sonic marlin
#

so i got 2 points, where to put them

frank basin
#

Anywhere you like

#

Pick other node

crude ermine
#

But that's it really

finite imp
#

touighness regen no good?

crude ermine
#

I mean it works, but you can go for something else and it won't hurt

finite imp
#

gotcha

#

wouldn't haved shocked me to hear it straight up didnt work

crude ermine
vernal harbor
#

like i said its not super tailored, i imagine it can be fine tuned to something biblical if the impromptu build rn is as ridiculous as it is

#

something about this tree is getting nerfed 100%

#

idk what though

#

because im now on auric dam and its the same its like a free pass

crude ermine
#

Yes

sonic marlin
#

whats suppresion

crude ermine
#

The one on the left, tho you could go for determination if you want for suppression res

#

Sway you get when gunners n shit shoot you

frank basin
sonic marlin
#

meh

crude ermine
#

Some guns have more tolerance than others

frank basin
#

Gunner is annoying when come 3-6 of them in one area

#

Constant barraging you can’t take it out

sonic marlin
#

what even counts as a weakspot on most enemies, just the head?

frank basin
#

Head

#

Beast of nurgle got big yellow boils on back

sonic marlin
#

i know 2 monstrosities have stuff on their backs

crude ermine
#

I'd go precision strike if you don't want determination

frank basin
#

Plague ogryn simple head

sonic marlin
#

k i got weakspot dmg

crude ermine
#

Perfect

frank basin
#

Test your build

sonic marlin
#

finding my favourite melee wep will take forever

frank basin
#

I say starter is chainsword

#

Mark xiiig something I spam light attack

serene sage
sonic marlin
#

that could work

frank basin
sonic marlin
#

this one works the same as mk4 but is just worse right?

#

i mean the attack stuff

crude ermine
#

Yes

#

Kinda

#

It's more of a sweep

sonic marlin
#

k, ill see if i like it, then i might invest into mk4

crude ermine
#

Alright

sonic marlin
#

someone said the knife is great on veteran, im guessing its used for backstab build? I thought it was good only on zealot, ive seen people oneshot bosses with it

frank basin
#

Chainsword with wrath or savage sweep blessing

frank basin
#

You go knife

#

Like weapon specialist keystone

crude ermine
#

I wouldn't recommend knife but it's fine

#

Not horrible

frank basin
#

Is just intermediate

#

To use

sonic marlin
#

basically Id like huge claeave with only light attack spam

frank basin
#

Mark 4 devil claw

#

Or mk xiiig chainsword

crude ermine
#

DC can take some time to get the parry down

sonic marlin
#

i was told this needs light heavy repeating combo for it to be good for crowd control since it doesn't do horizontal strikas all the time

frank basin
#

I usually spam light attack parry occasionally on singular rager

frank basin
sonic marlin
#

so its fine to spam light?

crude ermine
#

Funny enough that's a perfect devil's claw

frank basin
#

Yeah for horde

crude ermine
#

Minus cara that one confused me

sonic marlin
#

i was too sleepy

crude ermine
#

Ahh

frank basin
#

Get some sleep later to play the game

serene sage
sonic marlin
serene sage
#

But if you're lazy, who cares KEKW_ogryn

sonic marlin
serene sage
#

Probably not

#

The dclaw bounce against Carapace

#

Maniac + Flak/Unarmored

sonic marlin
#

so do i change it to unarmored

#

?

serene sage
#

Yeah that can work

sonic marlin
#

idk whats flak armor

frank basin
#

Scab enemies

sonic marlin
#

or which enemies count as maniacs

frank basin
#

Armored dudes

frail pond
#

hello fellow vets what are some blessings/perks I should be looking for on the mkIII power sword? I have this right now.

frank basin
#

Ragers

sonic marlin
#

aah

crude ermine
#

Like scab shotgunners, gunners, ragers, bomber bodies, mauler bodies

#

Not to be confused with the naked ragers

#

They're maniacs

frank basin
#

Armored ragers are flak

crude ermine
#

Yes

frank basin
#

Is shotgunner unarmored?

#

And flak

crude ermine
#

Scab no

frank basin
#

They are not maniac?

crude ermine
#

It's all armour for scab

#

Dreg shotgunners are unarmored

#

Like dreg gunners

frank basin
crude ermine
#

Yes

past knot
#

How does low profile work?

dusty sluice
#

ehhhhh, bricked?

#

or is unyielding fine

frank basin
#

If you going against bulwark or monstersity or meme to kill scab captains.

frank basin
#

For 10 second

#

Not sure attacking can aggro them

past knot
#

Almost 40s of no aggro

#

30 if you wan be stingy

frank basin
#

Yeah it sound to me like wannabe zealot invisible knife

#

You bump some patrol bulwark and crusher your dip away

#

Is greatly use revive downed Allies in stickies situation

past knot
#

More like dropping the responsibility on teammates

frank basin
#

Yeah

past knot
#

Yeah I was already running some revive speed and shout
I'll try this

#

Never used the stealth

frank basin
#

I had

#

As plasma psword

#

I run anti tank got overwhelmed with mobs

#

Dip aways run back to team cohesion then melee them out

#

Usually when I get lost I fear panicking when special or horde

past knot
#

Ok the use of it looks awesome ill try yours in emergency

frank basin
#

Sticky situation like open area with gunners when your Ally in middle area getting blasted by gunners

#

Or boss fight monstrosity

#

Pair with great revive speed

past knot
#

Yeah first mission just now I saw how good it is
Still im not a fan of the second charge, it makes it feel less spammy

jagged stream
#

what are the recommended blessings on Shovel?

crude ermine
#

Which one

jagged stream
#

Munitorum 3

#

the 2 new ones

crude ermine
#

Uncanny is nice to have, but I like running thrust and limbsplitter, decimator is also nice

#

Can't really decide because they're all very nice, it just depends on your playstyle

jagged stream
#

some combo of uncanny, deci, thrust, and limb. Thank you

crude ermine
#

Np

slate sleet
#

god i love melee only maps

#

rashaading it up

finite imp
#

never thought i'd meet a toxic Ogryn

crude ermine
#

It's a nice refresher to not deal with gunners

finite imp
#

not too bad

#

good crowd clearer

#

thinking shred to savage sweep

#

and 2nd perk to something else

#

unarmored?

crude ermine
#

Yeah

finite imp
#

aight

daring lily
#

how the hell have any of you done on overwatch

frank basin
#

I didn’t

willow badger
#

which helbore do u guys prefer

#

also generally want to run surgical and onslaught right? any thoughts on infernus?

crude ermine
#

I like 1 and 2

#

For the bayonet

frank basin
#

Bayonet

jovial aurora
#

yay or nay

#

it's pretty

#

i don't knife tho

zealous wyvern
#

why does the cadian gear not grant me more ammunition

#

all those pouches

#

useless?

last parcel
#

they just hold pieces of paper with cadia written all over them

zealous wyvern
#

oh

#

i see

#

that is why my voice of command cooldown is like five seconds

jovial aurora
#

also this worth picking up if i wanna try axes?

#

defense shouldn't be a bad dump stat

zealous wyvern
#

stats are pretty good i would say

#

perk meh but

#

chances you get something better i suppose

jovial aurora
#

specialists is always one i don't "mind" dealing with

vernal harbor
tranquil bronze
#

Other than needing to find a better HH, Hadron was good to me.

empty root
#

this worth upgrading?

tranquil bronze
empty root
#

what are dump stats for PG

jovial aurora
#

god damn it

#

lol

dusty sluice
#

is the bolter just really bad for overall dmg or am i doing smth wrong

empty root
#

bolter should have really good damage

jovial aurora
empty root
#

its main drawback is its draw and reload speeds

dusty sluice
#

i'm getting 200k at the end of the game

jovial aurora
#

this would literally be perfect for a hand cannon donor if it had surgical

jovial aurora
dusty sluice
#

suggestions?

jovial aurora
#

rebless

dusty sluice
#

hadron is so going to brick this

empty root
#

unarmored and a good anti-horde blessing

wet elk
#

damn melk almost got me a great lucius

dusty sluice
wet elk
#

talking about the amo

dusty sluice
#

oh lol didn't notice that

#

i meannn

wet elk
#

the lasgun peeeerk

#

🤔

finite imp
#

bro imma be real

#

with the lasgun perk

empty root
#

just use the bayonet to save ammo

finite imp
#

you aren't running out of ammo

#

it just doesnt happen

wet elk
#

i never tried it

finite imp
#

your accuracy needs to be SHIT to run out of ammo on a helbore with the perk

wet elk
#

is it that good?

finite imp
#

YES

#

i NEVER need ammo. I NEVER pick any up

empty root
#

the bayonet jab is fucking nuts on it too

wet elk
#

nice

finite imp
#

YEAH

#

Try the bayonet

#

you'll be like WTF

empty root
#

watch youtube videos of vets killing choas spawn in like 10 seconds with bayonet

finite imp
#

its so busted

empty root
#

double tap mutants with it

finite imp
#

theyre probably gonna nerf it ngl

#

not hard

#

but a lil

empty root
#

they already nerfed it didnt they?

#

it used to interact with your melee weapon blessings

finite imp
#

if they did it must have been godlike

empty root
#

blessing that did bonus damage to first hit of combo

finite imp
#

LOL

empty root
#

some shit like that

#

imagine current bayonet but 50% more damage

finite imp
#

the bayonet is dope. It has a singular attack that comes out just a tiny bit slower than the knife, can be CHARGED, is a STAB attack so it pens armor, and it does BULLSHIT damage

#

especially on weakspots

empty root
#

all you need is a shovel or power sword to cleave hordes

finite imp
#

bro you can clear hordes with the bayonet tbhy

#

just aim high

empty root
#

if you are getting surrounded though

tranquil bronze
#

How the hell do you do hi intensity on Damn?

finite imp
#

it's doable

#

it's all about your team tbh

#

thankfully damnation still hosts a very good tier of pubbies

empty root
#

so whats your counter argument then what melee weapon should you be pairing with helbore lasgun

wet elk
#

i got this one tho

finite imp
wet elk
#

the mk3

finite imp
#

but I would bring knife personally

empty root
dusty sluice
finite imp
#

id say knife or DC

wet elk
#

is the mk3 much worse?

finite imp
#

whichever you feel you have more problems with armor or meat

finite imp
dusty sluice
finite imp
#

but yes ^

dusty sluice
#

its a overhead lmao

finite imp
#

this

wet elk
#

is it just the bayonet?

finite imp
#

its slow and bad

#

the trade off with the mk3 is it charges fastest

#

but it also does less dmg

wet elk
#

hmm

finite imp
#

personally i reccomend the mk2

molten sluice
#

Found a great roll

golden nacelle
#

I thought it was the mk2 that charged faster

finite imp
#

its a good balance between all worlds

finite imp
#

it's the compromise between 1 and 3

#

1 charges slowest and is a cannon

golden nacelle
#

I get them mixed up I guess

#

mk2 has the good bayonet tho

dusty sluice
finite imp
#

i only ever use 2

golden nacelle
#

yeah, thats what I thought

dusty sluice
finite imp
#

welp

#

sorry for the misinfo

#

of course you COULD BE GASLIGHTING ME

molten sluice
#

Honestly Helbores are only good for Krieg cosplay

Should I just avoid quickplay for damnation?

try it

damnation pubbies are a different breed

the chads remain

learn to play the game

and practice and improve

molten sluice
finite imp
#

although every now and then you'll run into some sweaty complainer

#

talks shit the entire match

#

god borbid you go down due to bad rng

empty root
#

honestly my biggest gripe, if you are gonna get hard carried, dont scoop up all the resources

finite imp
empty root
#

and don't hold ammo crates/medpacks/med stims

finite imp
#

I also tend to save stims for other people

empty root
#

When I am leveling and playing dam I know I am getting carried and I don't touch resources unless they are unclaimed

finite imp
#

a med stim is that little control you can have over other by forcing them to stay alive lol

empty root
#

some players who get carried use up all the ammo and med and their carries can't even carry them and its a wipe

finite imp
#

but to each their own

#

i don't like to conciously burden my team in a co-op game

empty root
#

I play damn under 30 if its a premade group and I am asking permission to level

tranquil bronze
empty root
#

I think people shouldnt be able to solo queue damnation under 30

empty root
#

all the levels are too low

finite imp
#

i had a level SEVENTEEN join my damnation game

tranquil bronze
empty root
#

solo qeue malice should be 10, heresy 20, damnation 30

north raptor
#

just played with a high-performing veteran using a clicker mod. is that... allowed?

finite imp
#

died twice in within like FIVE mins

#

and got pissed we told him to leave

empty root
#

if you queue under those levels you generally run into big trouble

north raptor
#

someone who has a mod to make his lmb click faster than humanly possible

finite imp
#

like he holds mouse 1 but it's rapid fire

empty root
#

that can just be a script not even a mod

finite imp
north raptor
#

ok, but answer the question?

finite imp
#

click 1 million times in a second

finite imp
empty root
#

offers no advantage

north raptor
#

is that not a bannable thing?

finite imp
#

no

tranquil bronze
#

It's not

finite imp
#

like i said who cares

tranquil bronze
#

Something like that isn't a serious offense on a pve coop game.

finite imp
#

it saves your hands some strain oh no you're a cheaterrrrr

north raptor
#

jesus, i was just wondering

finite imp
#

get arthritis like the rest of us

finite imp
empty root
#

moth what was he doing with the mod?

north raptor
#

killing things very fast on a lasgun

empty root
#

like how do you know he was clicking fast

finite imp
north raptor
#

he told me

finite imp
#

did you report him

north raptor
#

told me he had a mod installed

finite imp
#

my brother in christ you're not gonna believe this

north raptor
#

ykonw... im just gonna block you sunrise. legit i was just curious if that was a thing youre allowed to do or not

finite imp

over reacting a little

flak and what sorry?

empty root

maniac

#

all your dangerous specialists are maniac

#

and flak is the most common type in the game

tranquil bronze
#

Unarmored is also a decent alternative, but for that, definitely maniac.

vernal harbor
#

put me in darktide id definitely be categorized as maniac fr

empty root
#

also unyielding

#

flak maniac unarmored and unyielding are your 4 generic perks
