Pinning fire would be better instead of shattering but since you got unlucky just change the perks for now

#

I'm not going to lie

#

sometimes, I think about giving up weapon specialist keystone, to get elite superiority

umbral scaffold
#

I only get it for breakpoints

#

Weapon specialist gets real funny on hordes

austere jolt
#

Someone define 'breakpoints' for me. I see the word a lot and have zero idea what it means.

crude ermine
#

Basically

#

The amount it takes to break the enemies health threshold

#

The breakpoint can be described as a goal to reach usually for one shotting

delicate estuary
crude ermine
#

Like if you need elite superiority to one shot a Rager because your weapon can't break that threshold so that node will help you break it

#

@lusty jetty hey what build do you run with your Headhunter autogun? Maybe I've just been building it wrong

junior needle
#

Depends on which one

muted knot
#

The 7

#

We had a discussion about it being better than Hellbore

#

On basically every level

#

Because it feels better

#

Allegedly

#

And since I'm a inquisitive mind I wanna put that to the test

#

Hell maybe I am wrong, I'd be happy to be problem wrong

midnight totem
#

I run opening salvo and head hunter on my v7

muted knot
#

I'm talking talent wise

quick steeple
#

Vraks 7 you'd want Deadly Accurate always since it got insanely buffed + Surg/Headhunter. usually surg on 7 / HH on 2

#

best perks/blessings for the MK3 Sapper Shovel?

#

id have to look through my older builds to see if i swapped stuff for 7, been mostly using II @muted knot

placid portal

Thrust + Decimator or Skull crusher

#

Uncanny strike works well too

Point and laugh at em

#

Do Vets have a Sniper Rifle like weapon, i don't think there is an exact one in game but what would be the closest to one

inland orchid
#

Helbore go brr

sharp ember
sharp ember
#

none have a high-zoom scope

#

but the mk7 does have high screen zoom

#

high zoom scopes aren't suited for a game like this anyway

inland orchid
#

Would get tunnel vision way too fast imo so ya is a good thing

muted knot
#

Long Las is coming fellas

#

Just gotta cope believe

sharp ember
#

i think if they insisted on adding a scoped weapon, it would have a variable zoom toggle

midnight totem
#

hrm

#

this build works decent with my revolver

#

gave up agile engagement and weapon specialist

lofty nova
#

honestly would just love to see a Sniper Rifle with a high armor piercing round capable of handling Carapace

scenic dune
#

scopes in this game sounds like an awful idea

midnight totem
#

for extra ammo, and +15 percent elite damage

i used to religiously run mk1 helbore with ogryn highlight and bonus damage before the talent tree update

midnight totem
#

this build is stronger against pure groups of elites

#

less so against mixed hordes

#

not sure if worthy trade off

#

maybe if I was using a chainsword rather then the power sword

#

What a good gun for the volley fire hit 4 target weakness with secondary fire?

zealous wyvern
#

what level are you on veteran?

#

because if youre low level, just wait for that challenge

#

its SO MUCH EASIER

midnight totem
#

also, technically autogun

zealous wyvern
#

if you get the self-prolonging your volley fire

#

doing it with only the base duration is not that easy to force on purpose. automatics like fierach said

#

are the best bet

#

brrrr into horde

#

headlevel

#

hope for the best

#

getting 4 clean headshots on 4 targets purposefully does require skill and no one gun is much better at it i feel like

umbral scaffold
#

Revolver

#

It has bullet magnetism

scenic dune
#

I'd say the autoguns are trash at that

zealous wyvern
#

OH WAIT

midnight totem
#

oh wait, you mean the hit five enemy heads with single use of volley fire

zealous wyvern
#

you can literally hit the same target

#

"hit enemy weak spots 4 times using ads without missing weakspots inbetween"

#

you can just stand in front of an ogryn

#

with an automatic

midnight totem
#

oh that one

#

yeah lol

zealous wyvern
#

and go brrr into his face

#

its easy once you realise that

midnight totem
#

stand infront of a crusher, executioner stance

#

get penance

#

zealous wyvern
#

i got it by accident on my new account

midnight totem
#

because you're not dodging his overhead xD

zealous wyvern
#

just shot the plague ogryn in his head

quartz sapphire
#

And what the braced autogun alt fire?

zealous wyvern
#

no

#

use infantry autogun

#

for aim

#

hipfire makes it harder for no reason

quartz sapphire
#

I see

zealous wyvern
#

try to find a big enemy

#

like we said up there

#

and just unload in their face

quartz sapphire
#

All right

scenic dune
sharp ember
#

not very necessary to use but it’s fun

zealous wyvern
#

it also shoots faster

#

making it good for high dps

sharp ember
#

that’s only for graia pattern

zealous wyvern
#

oh i see

#

then i must be using the graia

#

didnt know

umbral scaffold
#

That's a thing? Man, almost 900 hours and I still get these tidbits of cursed knowledge

quartz sapphire
#

What does it mean weapon secondary action tho?

#

Or I gnore that?

umbral scaffold
#

Did you know the agri shotty's ADS reduces its cleave?

zealous wyvern
#

right click

#

you need to aim down sights for infantry autogun

#

for most guns, secondary action is just aiming down sights

#

a very few instead brace

#

and plasma charges

All righ

maybe brexit protected him from the new regulations dropping

I just realized with the beret and underwear

zealous wyvern

maybe the EU voted to get rid of that

umbral scaffold

zealous wyvern

going commando is the opposite

#

full gear but no underwear

umbral scaffold

Is it? I have done a Mandela on myself

apparently the cosmetics are loading in

they failed to do so for the past 10 minutes though

#

everyone else is clothed fully

#

Why am I not surprised that Ogryn has a small pp?

zealous wyvern
#

you dont know that

#

i assume its not in the "sizable" state

#

as with most men

#

i also bet ogryn underwear is like EXTRA STRONG

#

so anything flexible WILL be squeezed into shape by it

torn moat
#

I doubt the Imperium would waste time giving Ogryn extra strong underwear.

zealous wyvern
#

if the underwear wasnt super strong they would break it in a day

#

think about it

crude ermine
#

I don't think anyone wants to but are now unfortunately

zealous wyvern
#

he disappeared. i will never know

#

what luna?

crude ermine
#

I don't think people wantednto think about the orgyn's underwear breaking from the sheer power

quartz sapphire
#

Do I add ogryn to the volley?

i dont understand

ah

Guys do you know what are the best blessings for the illisi power sword?

not sure if its worth the point

but i think it disables marking shooters

so i wouldnt do it

quartz sapphire
#

I thought it help better with the penance

zealous wyvern

i doubt that

if you are close enough to unload a whole magazine into an ogryns face, you will be close enough not to need the highlighting

# muted knot <@868257374056632400> hey what build do you run with your Headhunter autogun? Ma...

You can sacrifice your choice of grenade talents to go for Marksman's Focus if you really want, but MF doesn't make as big of a difference as you may think

When at max stacks it might take one or two less shots to down a Reaper/Mauler - I would rather have Demo Team + Field Improv, or 5% crit + extra grenade

Your individual weapon/perk/blessings roll will determine if going for MF makes sense

abstract moth
#

I had to translate in English myself

junior needle
#

No

#

That's a psyker weapon

#

Force swords are vet weapons and different

inland orchid
#

Power sword make de-materization field, force sword make warp field

abstract moth
junior needle
#

Force swords are only useable by psykers so you'd ask there

inland orchid
#

Sad thing is he did

#

Like he said, got ghosted KEKW_ogryn

junior needle
#

Oh, missed that part

abstract moth
#

Yup but maybe I need to say it better?

#

I'll try again

junior needle
#

I just didn't read that message

#

But here you go, pretty reliable guide

arctic rampart
#

Is there a melee weapon primer for Vets?

junior needle
#

Not really. mk6 psword and rashad are generally considered the top tier melee weapons.

lusty jetty
#
  1. Obtain Power Cycler
inland orchid
#

No cuz we got too many options KEKW_ogryn

#

U wanna guide to John darktide, become John darktide

#

Man’s a walking Swiss Army knife

arctic rampart
#

I got cycler 4 on a mk6, but I guess I mk3 is better cause u can charge it while sliding? But I was thinking about newer chain sword or axe as fun they seem decent

arctic rampart
#

I like the patterns more but u can charge mk3 while sliding and u cant charge mk6 then

lusty jetty
#

You can charge the MkVI while blocking

#

Although I've never actually used the MkIII so who knows

#

I used to be a PS hater but honestly if you have PC IV it is really really really difficult to recommend anything else

arctic rampart
#

Same, I'm trusting darktide reddit for that lul

jaunty fiber
#

Uh, unarmored to flak?

frank basin
#

Since you already one shotting on supercharge attack against flak

junior needle
#

Supercharge attack?

#

You mean the push attack?

frank basin
junior needle
#

That's just charged attacks

frank basin
#

I could call supercharged attack

#

Is odd

junior needle
#

Supercharge is an actual blessing for psword

#

So that'll lead to some confusion

frank basin
#

Oh lol

lofty nova
junior needle
#

You can do surgical/deadly or surgical/opening

#

Just don't do deadly without surgical, important.

lofty nova
#

surgical ty

lusty jetty
#

Opening Salvo

#

is very good

#

on Vraks VII

sharp ember
#

because weakspot and crit damage perks only increase the bonus damage difference between a normal hit and weakspot/crit hit

#

instead of the total damage

junior needle
#

You're waiting for surgical to charge anyway so opening is a guaranteed damage boost without consciously having to pay attention to it

bitter turtle
junior needle
#

Not sure how well the two stack up damage wise though

bitter turtle
#

unarmored to OS dreg gunner without crit

#

flak or maniac both help with oneshit crit on dreg/flak rager just dpeends which you hate more ig

junior needle
#

There seems to be significantly more naked ragers

bitter turtle
#

yeah but flak helps against random bruisers when you hipfire it sometimes

#

since its not bad hipfired tbh

#

also it might help hit a bp on maulers?

#

i honestly just spam shots into their body with v7 so i havent checked how many it takes with or without flak

lusty jetty
#

Opening Salvo/Deadly Accurate + HH/Surgical

#

In the middle of auric t5 i will respond mroe later lol

junior needle
#

hh is better for vraks 3 due to how it works

bitter turtle
#

HH is not as good on v7 imo

#

you only spam shots into mauler bodies or crusher heads

#

everything else should die in 2 bullets at most

#

anyway

#

idk if you can hit the OS BP without unarmored perk against dreg gunners

#

mine cant at least

#

but it isnt completely godrolled either so idk

#

if you can hit it with 10% elite instead that might be nice

lusty jetty
#

I hit gunner OS without unarmoured perk using OS

bitter turtle
#

but mine falls short unless im relying on keystones which arent always reliable

#

o ya

#

if you use OS it should cover it as well

#

i just use deadly accurate but maybe i shoudl switch

#

but i think then ragers are definitely a 2shot without DA

#

even with a crit

#

well, point being

#

without opening salvo or unarmored i find that you're about 20% dmg modifier short from a oneshot with no crit on dreg gunners

lusty jetty
#

That is exactly why OS > DA

#

I will die on that hill

#

Crits and weakspots and weakspot crits just don't happen as often as you like ingame

bitter turtle
#

well

#

the main point of DA i found was just for rager OS

#

do you still OS rager with crit

umbral scaffold
#

I remember not liking the reset time on OS

bitter turtle
#

also it might not be perfectly reliable yeah

#

since sometimes you really do have to gun down gunners in rapid succession

umbral scaffold
#

And finding out hipfire and ADS reset recoil differently

lusty jetty
#

Honestly Ragers are just hard to headshot

#

If Ragers are coming at me in close then I'm dropping 2 frags, VoC, then magdumping/power sword

#

If they're out far then I don't care about oneshotting

#

Opening Salvo is just too consistent - at worst it's kicking in every other shot, if you're not letting it reset

bitter turtle
#

my other question then is

#

what do you gain with the other perk freed up from unarmored

#

cause the whole point of maniac or flak from my experience.,.. was ragers lol

#

nothing else meaningfully changes

#

unyielding for boss dps?

lusty jetty
#

No

#

If you have Vraks VII you're not on boss duty lol

bitter turtle
#

well ya

#

[i agree

#

lol

lusty jetty
#

Except BoN

bitter turtle
#

that's why I actually dont see the value in freeing up the 2nd perk

lusty jetty
#

I have Flak + Maniac

bitter turtle
#

do you know if it actually helps you hit any meaningful bps to have both w/o DA?

lusty jetty
#

I oneshot anything Flak, and need as much Maniac damage as I can get

#

I've never tested it without

bitter turtle
#

you dont need dmg if it doesn't help you reach a bp is why i say that

lusty jetty
#

I disagree with that very much

bitter turtle
#

like if i do 60% or 80% of a rager hp it doestn really make a big difference compared to 50% or 100%

#

that's what DA helps with at least

#

i mean i get

#

IN PRACTICE

#

they anret always at full hp

#

but u get what i mean

lusty jetty
#

That's exactly it

bitter turtle
#

its a benefit but not a major one

#

not very reliable

#

cause it means 1. you're relying on your teammates to be attacking the same target

#

and 2. they have to have done enough dmg for it to matter

#

im not saying its meaningless mind u

#

im just saying i'd rather run DA then in that case

#

at least my crit is a definite 50% chance minimum

#

for the OS

#

and jsut sac a perk to unarmored

#

that way i dont have to worry about recoil reset either against swarms of dreg gunners

dry marsh
#

Hey, I just got extremely lucky and got Power Cycler T4 from Melk. I’m wondering what keystone would be best for a mostly melee Vet? Any other build advice for such?

bitter turtle
#

but you need a gun that works well with it

#

revolver/plasma are both pretty good with it and top tier weapons

lusty jetty
#

Breakpoints are a nice theoretical exercise with strong practical application ingame that is highly dependent on the role and weapon

Like - with Vraks VII it is my job to delete gunners at range, so a Gunner oneshot breakpoint is a practical metric, because they're usually far out enough to be at 100% health

The reality is for pretty much anything else - Snipers don't count because they are so squishy - it will be in close and will have taken damage from the team, so damage increments mean a lot more

bitter turtle
#

but really, anything non automatic that swaps quickly are nice

bitter turtle
dry marsh
#

Awesome, I figured the right was the best for that. I’ll look into the Ranger weapons listed. Thank you.

bitter turtle
#

in that case why not just roll the 50/50 minimum with surgical+deadshot and DA

#

and just run unarmored perk

#

that way you have no recoil reset to worry about either

lusty jetty
#

Deadshot is a trap lol

bitter turtle
#

wdym

lusty jetty
#

Stamina

bitter turtle
#

uh

#

its a single shot weapon

#

its really easy to control the stam usage on it

#

at least personally

#

i never run out

#

while adsing

lusty jetty
#

Cool

#

I find it a trap

lofty nova
bitter turtle
#

spess mehrines are smelly

#

:(

lofty nova
#

lol

umbral scaffold
#

Deadshot and the weapon specialist modifier for stamina on melee swap is goated

bitter turtle
#

i just think calling it a trap is weird

umbral scaffold
#

It basically fixes deadshot

bitter turtle
#

its good on a lot of strong guns

strange sparrow
iron marten
#

Deadshot is a neat talent; I’m too braindead to use it properly, lol

bitter turtle
#

like memevolver

#

which is p similar to v7 in play anyway

umbral scaffold
#

Deadshot revolver is disgusting

strange sparrow
#

I would say deadshot are a trap because a lot of people can’t play the talent well

lofty nova
#

I like that infiltrait plays into the stealth aspect but i think executioners stance is better for a sniper build

umbral scaffold
#

Easy rager one-shots

lofty nova
#

not sure

strange sparrow
#

They run out of stamina > realised no more Crit > still ADS -> rager come near you

lofty nova
#

gotta say stealth is great for clutching a bad situation

bitter turtle
#

:^)

strange sparrow

Pull out weapon

#

Realise no block

bitter turtle
#

ive genuinely never had that problem with deadshot on single shot wep

#

though i will say

#

that happened to me

#

multiple times

#

with deadshot columnus

#

LOL

#

i dropped it after that for colu

#

not good enough to do that build ig

#

that or ppl are just literlaly running 3x stam curio that shill it

I’m pretty aggressive as a vet, so I usually don’t run deadshot cause needing to block and shit

Columnus with Onslaught, and you’ll be a force to be reckoned with

iron marten
lusty jetty
#

lol

bitter turtle
#

the funny part about recon is iag would have been better that it anyway even w/o nerf

#

it had trash maniac damage even when it was "good"

iron marten
#

True

#

It was just finally being able to use a laser weapon that’s full auto, I guess

bitter turtle
#

dont get me wrong, I liked it too, i have two 570+ ones lol

iron marten

(And the 20k plasteel I spent on it)

it was fun

What keystone are you doing on v7 then anyway @lusty jetty

odd merlin
#

Hey everybody!

strange sparrow
#

Thing is I find all the single shot weapon really not using deadshot to begin cuz their high weakspot damage

#

my hellbore las deadshot hate me

#

lusty jetty

I ran MF for awhile but I honestly don't miss it at all

odd merlin
#

I like pairing Charismatic with demolition team. Gives me more grenades.

lusty jetty

Being able to spam shredders at pretty much every HISTG pack is worth

Vraks VII is performant enough without keystones

pump them overkill damage numbers

lusty jetty

Yep

middle is generally just good, and right offers a playstyle most vets eschew

lusty jetty

I just don't like anything leading up to it

tender pasture

middle?

#

Ya sorry

tender pasture
#

all g, figured it out

#

yeah it's just weird

bitter turtle
#

Yeah mf was kinda overkill imo

#

I was gonna suggest mid Stam regen if u wanted to try deadshot since it makes it totally brainless to manage lol

lusty jetty
#

Ya

bitter turtle
#

I started doing right keystone more again

lusty jetty
#

I like Deadshot with Revolver a lot since there's only so much stam to lose

tender pasture

took to putting glory hunter on right keystone zarona

basically maxed out on crit whenever I'm using it anyway

lusty jetty

Ya GH is super nice

#

I want to like right keystone

strange sparrow

My question is always, does that 25% feel a lot?

lusty jetty

but I always debuff my buff by swapping weapons

it's a very particular playstyle

Just one out of 2 things will make smoke better for me

  • Lower the smoke height so we can spot heads
  • Have outlined highlights of enemies through smoke like Ogryns Taunted enemies

also, make gunners spray instead of continuing to mag dump last known location

the "restore 10% toughenss every time you kill an elite/special"

stuff like that doesnt get affected by curio toughness regen

are the best blessings for infantry lasguns deadly accurate and headhunter?

#

or is infernus up there

bitter turtle

which hurts it a lot in terms of how effective it is

passive coherency regen is fairly small in a combat situation

#

meanwhile most of your gain is from getting melee kills or talents like ck

which it doesnt affect iirc

ordo docket(gold) is unironically decent as long as you dont feel like u could use more an extra 15% toughness/hp by slapping the 5% secondaries on 3 curios as well

#

I have come to the conclusion I'll do funny crit stacking with knife vet

#

Provided it's additive, I believe I can get 70% crit chance

#

5 base, 5 node, 10 desperado, 25 reciprocity, 20 riposte, 5 perk

tiny summit
umbral scaffold
#

And apparently on this particular build I never needed unarmored to two-shot dreg gunners with mercy killer

#

So I was just wasting it

#

Now I need to see if infested is what's making my light crits one-shot poxwalkers or if I can safely remove that too

terse idol
umbral scaffold
#

Might not be

terse idol
#

If youre building either knife you're gonna have to be relegated with the fact that horde clear is not good

umbral scaffold
#

Maybe the finesse from vet already carries the one-shots

terse idol
#

The damage is looooooow

#

I don't know if you'll be one shoting any poxwalkers

#

Even so, you don't have cleave

umbral scaffold
#

Long as I can reliably one-shot them, the attack speed will do the rest

terse idol
#

That's fair

#

Imo I wouldn't try to make the knife anything it isn't good at, you may be sacrificing other things to do so

dusty nacelle
#

For plasma, does the charge rate affect the rate at which the primary fire charges at?

hollow ibex
#

that's a fixed delay

terse idol
#

Yeah like Sirosky said the uncharged rate isn't affected by charge rate anymore

dusty nacelle
#

Ooh okay awesome

#

So assuming i'm just spamming primary is charge rate the dump stat?

umbral scaffold
sharp ember
#

i could’ve sworn it had a listing for primary fire speed

#

charge rate dump is still pretty good though if it keeps your other stats high

radiant chasm
#

jsut cause you will end up shoot->vent->shoot->vent loop

radiant chasm
#

Charge Rate
How fast the Charge Attack charges.

Charge Speed: [2 - 1]
Charge Speed: [1 - 0.5]

tender pasture
#

it's one of the more instructive penances around

terse idol
#

Hard disagree

#

Thermal resist at max gives you at minimum 2 extra shots

tender pasture
#

you get a sense for the players who cheesed it when you play with them because they're losing 1v1s with poxwalkers

terse idol
#

7 to 8 or 9 I forgot

#

You barely charge with the pgun because SOMEHOW the dps just by spamming left click is faster than right click

#

At least from one video I saw

#

The more you can smooth out how many shots you spam the better

#

Needing to vent every shot just complicates things and take it from me I got a 51 TR pgun

#

Also TR will give you more value theoretically on gets hot and blaze it without mucking about with venting

umbral scaffold
#

I'm almost sure charge rate affects the primary on the plasma and the blessing that affects charge rate buffs it

not anymooore

hollow ibex
dusty nacelle
umbral scaffold
#

I'm confused by the wording, but I'm not sure it's saying the charge rate for the primary has a fixed value

terse idol
#

Dump Charge rate if you gotta

terse idol
#

And not go over

dusty nacelle
#

This is what i've been using and i have no idea whether or not i should be trying to farm a better one

terse idol
#

so in theory

#

That means Charge rate doesn't affect primary at all

#

Because it'll always charge up to 0.525

umbral scaffold
#

But that doesn't mean it has a fixed charge rate

dusty nacelle
#

Isn't it fixed? If it always charges up to 0.525

umbral scaffold
#

No, it just sets a limit

#

You can reach 0.525 in 1 second, 2 seconds, 10 seconds

#

Doesn't mean the charge rate is fixed, just the charge limit

dusty nacelle
#

ohhh i get it now

terse idol
#

TR is still better

umbral scaffold
#

I'm in the psykhanium testing some greys right now and my volatile 70%

dusty nacelle
#

So charge rate still affects how quickly the shots come out
The change just makes the level it has to charge to until it fires consistent which is why they specified it won't affect its "damage output"

umbral scaffold
#

It definitely affects the charge rate

#

It's just that the charge rate won't go past that 0.5something

dusty nacelle
#

Should I dump this plasma then and try getting a better one or

terse idol
#

yes because prior charge rate affected damage

#

It doesn't now

#

I would dump CR

hollow ibex
terse idol
#

or

#

best case

#

You get a balanced pgun

umbral scaffold
#

They word it a bit weird because when they say "charge rate shouldn't affect damage output", it still does

strange sparrow
#

Balance Pgun

terse idol
#

No

#

Because pgun before

#

terse idol
#

The Charge Rate Changed the Damage

#

Not the DPS

umbral scaffold
#

It doesn't affect the damage of the shot, but by reaching the 0.525 faster they will make the gun deal damage faster

terse idol
#

It literally changed the damage from a range of 30-40 damag

dusty nacelle
# terse idol yes because prior charge rate affected damage

I think the wording is bad but I think they mean like when spamming the primary fire it used to randomly shoot off sometimes less charged which would affect its "damage output" and the change just makes it so it's always shot out at 0.525 level now

terse idol
umbral scaffold
#

So it still affects the damage output, contrary to what Fatshark said

dusty nacelle
#

So charge rate would affect how quickly it charges up to that 0.525 when shooting

umbral scaffold
#

It just doesn't affect the damage per shot

#

Yes

terse idol
#

yes

umbral scaffold
#

It's a DPS increase basically

terse idol
#

But I would skip Charge rate

#

TR just gives you more shots

umbral scaffold
#

Your gun looking something like this would be very nice

dusty nacelle
#

lol nvm after actually checking the difference is like minimal

#

well maybe it makes a bigger difference when actually used and not just looking at the stats

#

hmmm

umbral scaffold
#

I need the elites to one-shot reapers with a full charge

terse idol
#

like 0.2 seconds

umbral scaffold
#

I also need maniacs because without it the close range shots won't kill flamers

dusty nacelle
#

Is elites better to put on plasma than flak?

terse idol
#

not gonna be different

#

check your BP on dredge gunners

#

in a game rn

#

ttrl

#

ttyl

dusty nacelle
#

I think i 1shot both gunners with headshots

muted knot
#

Extra weakspot damage on ability use seems like a bad investment tbh

#

Unless those 30% or whatever it is let's you hit specific BP

dusty nacelle
#

If u mean marksman the reason I got it is because it gives you POWER instead of just normal damage

umbral scaffold
dusty nacelle
#

power is alot better because I heard it does its calcs by applying the buff last after every other buff instead of using the base damage

white minnow
#

well, it's multiplicative with other buffs like a lot of other things

dusty nacelle
#

at least from wut i heard

dusty nacelle
dusty nacelle
muted knot
#

Power is always better than pure damage that's true but what do you hit better with it ?

dusty nacelle
#

bosses :)

tiny summit
muted knot
#

I guess thats a point

#

I like having my VoC as a defense option most of the time

#

But that's just me

#

The cool down is low so I guess you aren't missing much by using it for marksman

dusty nacelle
umbral scaffold
#

I can also open the bulwark and fire a full charge in its face

#

The crusher takes a full charge and a bit more

dusty nacelle
#

ohhh okay i misunderstood then

tall torrent
umbral scaffold
#

Both gunners also get one-shot by the primary, and obviously so do the shotgunners

#

And I just do full charge bodyshots on ragers because they like coming in packs

muted knot
#

I feel like charging shots is kind of a trap at the moment

umbral scaffold
#

Ragers get a bit trickier tho

frank basin
#

Scab or Dreg?

dusty nacelle
umbral scaffold
#

I mean, people are welcome to try to chain primary shots on knocked down enemies

muted knot
#

You spend more ammo and generate more heat

umbral scaffold
#

Even if it's less efficient, I'd rather do a single headshot on a reaper and a single headshot after I open the bulwark

#

The time I spent trying to line up the next shots becomes a hassle I could have avoided by just doing a full charge

dusty nacelle
#

Another question a bit off topic, are krak grenades affected by whether or not they explode on an enemy's weakpoint?

umbral scaffold
#

I also found a nice chainsword

#

Shame it still has the bonk sound on lights

dusty nacelle
#

IK but i'm wondering if i want to get more boss damage if I want to throw a krak grenade on a weakpoint or if i can just toss it

clever niche
#

As far as I know krak doesn’t attach to anything else but carapace and flak, in which is non existent on monstrosities

#

Just toss it and use +50% damage

dusty nacelle
#

It attaches to unyielding too i thought?

clever niche
#

With extreme precision or so, which is neither here nor there in high difficulty

umbral scaffold
#

It attaches to bosses

#

It doesn't magnetize to them, so it needs to be a direct hit

clever niche
#

Getting your gun out deals far more damage

dusty nacelle
#

I'm just wondering whether or not it does more damage if I throw it on a weakpointtt

#

like would I want to throw a krak on the BoN spot or can i just throw it

clever niche
#

True opinion? Never tested

#

Use creature spawner mod and see

umbral scaffold
#

I tried it on a plague ogryn now

clever niche
#

Id rather pick +50% dmg and yeet

umbral scaffold
#

The grenade apparently deals impact damage

#

And the impact damage on the head is tripled

clever niche
dusty nacelle
#

I feel like this info would still be useful whether or not i took the 50% perk

umbral scaffold
#

The impact damage is 1

#

The headshot impact is

#

3

dusty nacelle
#

So it's only the impact damage and not the explosion damage that's increased?

umbral scaffold
#

The rest is unchanged tho, same explosion damage

#

Yeah

#

Just glue it anywhere

dusty nacelle
#

okay tyyy good to know

umbral scaffold
#

But hey

#

You probably can deal 4.5 damage on the head if you take the 50%

clever niche
umbral scaffold
#

Oh wait, I think I have the 50%

dusty nacelle
#

They meant from throwing it on a weakspot

#

The extra damage perk obviously increases the grenade's damage

clever niche
#

Math says yes

#

Are you a baseball player perchance?

If you got longshot, you'll be able to get the dredge gunner 1 tap headshot uncharged with +elites on the pgun

I like VoC give breathing room

umbral scaffold
#

When people tell me the 15 seconds that the revive adds is screwing their matches because vet is meant to be shouting immediately when the cooldown's over, I just keep thinking what kind of nightmares they're putting themselves into where they think they actually have to be shouting as soon as possible

#

Consistently

umbral scaffold
#

That's the thing, I play revive shout in there and also play lots of matches where people don't have VoC at all

#

There is definitely an argument to be made where it's an absurd shitshow that's lasting for minutes and the vet does need to be shouting back to back to keep people alive, but those situations feel rare even in auric

dusty nacelle
#

Maybe we just like the bigger VOC radius because it makes us feel like we're shouting louder :)

umbral scaffold
#

I am of the mind Fatshark didn't balance auric damnation around at least one person having a basic VoC just as I remember people saying gun psykers were a hidrance because they were daring to consume ammo

#

People get the weirdest takes on the game and don't account for Fatshark accounting for the sheer randomization of quickplay

#

You can get 4 VoC, you can get none; you can get 4 staff psykers, you can get none

astral blade
umbral scaffold
#

I like to think they accounted for a sort of base for the worst scenarios

#

Also Fatshark has lied to me

#

Smackdown lasts 5 seconds, not 2

#

It seems abusively inconsistent to proc in matches though

#

I swear half of the chaff I punch doesn't trigger smackdown and still gets staggered

#

As I remember somehow proccing it on crushers, despite not actually being able to in the pskykhanium

#

Also this is without infested and using 8% weakspot on the weapon
