I'm also tempted to run this to get more stamina delay and spam push attacks

#

Onslaught or longshot depending on gun

#

Well, I guess no gun reload depending on gun too

#

Anyway, I'm farming a 3 stamina curio later because I have nothing to do with my life

I wish smackdown worked on push tbh

Flak

Keep in mind that 17k on a beast is without additional 25% dmg and no +10% crit dmg

Flak is more prevalent and deserves hatred

Unarmored is if you can't one-shot scab bruisers

Which you need

#

So check that

when can you not?

spice wadi

Flak for the dregs bruiser heads because fuck those guys

I hate dreg bruisers I wish they'd just shut up

I normally go for flak, unyielding, carapace, maniac

umbral scaffold
#

Only neol*berals run caxe without all the melee nodes

near shore
#

Depends on the weapon and build

bitter turtle
#

You want 10% melee, 5% melee, 30% weakpoint and a godroll (>75% on every stat except mobility) Rashad axe with unarmored + flak, brutal momentum + headtaker/decimator/thrust to hit every possible breakpoint u care abt

#

^ copy pasted

spice wadi
#

hadron thanks u for the life energy u will sacrifice trying to make a godroll at her shop

blazing veldt
#

Unarmored damage specifically to kill dreg shooters because fuck those guys too they're just mad annoying

#

build built entirely over fucking over dreg shooters

bitter turtle
#

It's not for shooters

#

Its for the bruisers

#

So it can horde clear efficiently

near shore
#

If you dislike dreg shooters become a Lazer gun user, it my preference a mk7 headhunter

#

It can 2 shot reapers as well

blazing veldt
#

I just like the idea of a "fuck these guys specificslly" shitpost build

bitter turtle
#

They are unarmored type if u aim for head (you should)

iron marten

sorry for late reply, ty

also, I've seen the light with trauma force

blazing veldt
#

disrupt destiny specifically for those alike pantsless naked poxwalkers

tall torrent
#

Scab bruiser 1 HS kill is a lot harder to reach than dreg bruiser 1 HS kill

#

Rashad just naturally does less dmg vs unarmored than vs flak

blazing veldt
#

do naked poxwalkers deserve their own targeting highlight

spice wadi
#

why did u put naked and poxwalkers in the same sentence

couldn't they put on some nice clothes before getting infested like the groaners

If the map is super claustrophobic it does rather well like Hablab Dreyko

how does its DPS hold up compared to agripiina?

sage agate
blazing veldt
#

would you use it if they added a twin linked lawbringer

placid portal
#

agripinaa got the one tap sniper so you can challenge at long ranges

sage agate
#

if you will be playing a lot of lawbringer i'd recmmend buying it, but thats a lot of melkbucks if you are just experimenting

sage agate

stick with a normal lawbringer then and just slap on nice perks

its there for 23hrs anyways

Is pinning fire better than shattering impact for bolter?

What is the damage the shredder pistol is doing

60s at 80% iirc

Because without looking I can gurantee the columnus is gonna do better

placid portal

the fact you can AIM with it is kinda big

civic knot
#

Is pinning fire better than shattering impact for bolter? cant decide

placid portal
#

yes

#

Pinning is free damage boost

#

vs Monstrosity it's a mixed bag since you might not accumulate pinning fire stacks but hoardes and elites spawn during a miniboss

I just like using the boltgun as the heavy machingun refitted as a sniper "rifle"

how many did you purposefully sacrifice to death to rescue them?

trim steppe

Only the dumb ones

#

For reference, I just played exactly my 800th mission when I got my 500th rescue.

placid portal

nice

#

1 of them gotta be my dumbass

zealous wyvern
#

i rescue someone about every 5th mission

wise fossil
zealous wyvern
#

usually someone rushes the rescue and i hate "competing" over it
the other times, noone dies or we get wiped so no rezzing

#

so i rarely get rescues

#

revives though aplenty

#

oh or i am the one who died

trim steppe
#

4/5 missions I rescue no one, and then 1/5 missions I rescue like 5-8 people as they keep killing themselves and I have to carry it lol

zealous wyvern
#

166 times to be precise since october

exotic spade
#

I rush the rescues simply cause of simple military mind "no man left behind!"

zealous wyvern
#

or september

#

that is not proper protocol

#

if you die rushing them you failed

#

ive seen so many wipes just because one person thinks rushing is the best way of doing it

#

they will run in there leaving the other one to die from a massive patrol, then get mopped up alone

exotic spade
#

Stealth and go. they are up before cloak wears off.

zealous wyvern
#

that makes it better but i have still seen this happen too often even with cloak

idle swallow
#

sometimes its big hero time and sometimes its "If he dies, he dies"

exotic spade
#

I mean there is rushing, and there is stupidity. If they are way out there, they waiting till we get closer.

What makes me laugh is I have seen far too many people leave if they get caught.

so how do you actually use smokes? Drop on yourself? Only drop on line of sight between you and ranged? Throw at enemies?

vernal harbor
#

I be going to work

#

Drop at enemy

#

Like in front of them or in an area they are about to reposition to shoot from

#

They will continue to shoot at your last known but if it’s on then they’ll be blind and confused

umbral scaffold
#

Smokes go at ranged enemies or between you and them

iron marten
#

Should have the ability to infuse smoke with deodorant, so they die from being too clean…

Probably treat smoke grenades like you use them with the sicario build in pd2

The plasmagun is a sniper.

#

And probably better then any sniper they could add to darktide.

tiny summit
vernal harbor
#

Revolver only misses if you do

iron marten

What on earth

vernal harbor
low yacht
#

Plasmagun is good at finishing most targets.

#

It isn't bad but expect to be using melee a lot with it.

umbral scaffold
#

Smokes could use some buffs and a bit more consistency

low yacht
#

Why I use a power sword to make up for it's weaknesses.

#

Frag grenades are fun.

#

Plasma gun and its 100 cleave

#

A bomber behind a crusher? No problem

low yacht
#

Plasma is great at sniping.

#

And collateral on it is beautiful

vernal harbor
#

Plasma gun falls far short when combat is prolonged or if combat is very high int the whole way, always see plasma vets CONSUMING every piece of ammo discovered

umbral scaffold
#

I think smoke making the area immune to fire and blowing up on contact with it would be interesting

low yacht
#

I clear snipers across the map with plasma.

umbral scaffold
#

Another would be to give them an optional modifier to explode on contact, period

low yacht
#

You do realize you have perks to make up for that?

vernal harbor
#

The hardest pill to swallow is eventually finding that anything can be done with anything if you’re good at the game

low yacht
#

It's pretty easy to conserve ammo when you are mainly using a sword to clear hordes.

vernal harbor
#

You’d be a hero among plebs for all the plasma vets I’ve seen

low yacht
#

Plasma gun only clears targets I cannot reach or I can't slash easily.

vernal harbor
#

I wish they would use melee

umbral scaffold
#

Enemies sometimes scatter in smoke and sometimes they keep trying to fire blindly, which breeds some discontent when people use smokes because they believe it's doing literally nothing

vernal harbor
#

They just hug their blue gun and wait

low yacht
#

Just stand back and tell your team to cover you.

iron marten
low yacht
#

Usually my team is covering my ass so I can reload.

#

It's a team game remember your team mates can clear targets so you can reload.

umbral scaffold
#

I heard some things about smokes and I'd like to try them out more

low yacht
#

Take turns firing at enemies.

umbral scaffold
#

I vaguely recall someone mentioning smokes block dogs from pouncing

vernal harbor
#

I think smoke is situational and I only bring them if I specially load into a sniper gauntlet

low yacht
#

Who uses smoke when you have grenades to clear the area of them.

umbral scaffold
#

I want to test how every special reacts to it

low yacht
#

Just save your nades.

#

And you won't have any issues.

umbral scaffold
#

Smoke is very situational, yeah

vernal harbor
#

Smoke is fun tho

low yacht
#

To be honest dogs aren't that bad.

vernal harbor
#

If you have the duration extend

umbral scaffold
#

I use it to lock down areas for fights

low yacht
#

I like the bleed damage of frags.

#

It's beautiful

#

Softens up enemies

#

Makes them my punching bag.

vernal harbor
thick wolf
#

Does infiltrator make your melee damage stronger?

vernal harbor
#

If you choose the talents to do so

umbral scaffold
#

If you are fighting a crowd of elites and the team doesn't have space to kill the ranged folk throwing peas at you, you smoke the ranged ones and dynamically alter the map's layout for a few seconds

low yacht
#

Well I mixed both for sprint speed.

#

As my power sword lacks some of that.

#

Just not infiltrator

umbral scaffold
#

You can also throw it to rush at a ranged crowd because not only it locks the enemies on it, but everyone behind the smoke

vernal harbor
#

The two types of stealth vets are actually stealth vets and the ones who just pop it for a bloodbath

low yacht
#

I use it for bloodbath as it fits my purpose.

#

The damage increase is beautiful

vernal harbor
#

i support bloodbath vets

#

mfs go OFF

Bleed nade's effective area is a circle, while smoke's is a circle and a big fuck-off rectangle behind it

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
The price to pay for low max ammo

This is why you get a good melee weapon?

vernal harbor

Which is weird that the ammo has low max

To be honest swords are better for crowd control.

I may as well run autogun for it and modify my infiltrator build instead

Plasma gun is good for targets you cannot reach when they have several gunners, and you don't want to run into them and get mowed down.

umbral scaffold

RIP grenade regen

It's every minute.

#

You have three grenades so save them.

thick wolf
#

Agrippa alt fire is good but shit man i felt spoiled from boltgun's shotgun

umbral scaffold
#

I have 4 now, I ditched the revive talent chadgryn

low yacht
#

Plasma gun is good but not for crowd control.

thick wolf
#

Darktide shotguns by comparison felt like firing bb pellets with how much it sucks against hordes

low yacht
#

A power sword fixes all my issues.

#

With the plasma.

umbral scaffold
low yacht
#

I use eviscerator and boltgun as Zealot.

#

So to be honest power sword isn't too bad.

shrewd acorn
#

Does DumDum have a cool down?

umbral scaffold
#

Power sword is goated

wooden lotus
#

power sword + plasma w weapon specialist is my go to

umbral scaffold
#

Nope

wooden lotus
#

dumdum does not have a CD

#

it is just busted omegalul

shrewd acorn
#

Wait, so if dumdum doesn't have a cooldown, why does it go grey after I just empty a mag?

thick wolf
#

Actually, would laspistol work for infiltrator build

low yacht
#

Plasma gun sniping snipers.

#

I love sniping them with plasma.

umbral scaffold
#

Dumdum shouldn't go grey, I think

low yacht
#

Plasma is a satisfying weapon to snipe targets with.

shrewd acorn
#

I'm using it on a recon lasgun, and it goes grey after 5 seconds

umbral scaffold
#

Those are usually the blessings that need a burst

low yacht
#

Frying targets is funny.

#

And the collateral damage of plasma gun.

wooden lotus
umbral scaffold
#

Does the lasgun not have punishing salvo or sustained fire perhaps?

low yacht
#

Plasma goes through several targets seems like a better sniper rifle.

umbral scaffold
#

Not sure if they roll it, but

shrewd acorn
low yacht
#

Better then any armor piercing gun.

wooden lotus
low yacht
#

Who needs a big bolt when a laser can go through your enemies

#

A charged plasma beam.

wooden lotus
#

because it only lasts a certain amount of time and goes away when you miss iirc

terse idol
shrewd acorn
terse idol
#

II'm joking

wooden lotus
#

yes

terse idol
#

but like

#

Man

wooden lotus
#

that is the duration ticking down

terse idol
#

Pgun needs to address it

wooden lotus
#

dum-dum doesn't last forever

low yacht
#

It works fine.

terse idol
#

It's actually worse to charge your pgun

#

Yeah

#

It is

#

🥹

low yacht
#

The charge sound is great.

#

Just overheating it isn't.

shrewd acorn
wooden lotus
#

yes

#

after it ticks down you run out unles you keep stacking it

low yacht
#

When your gun reaches 100% charge you go boom.

#

I did that before accidentally

wraith locust
#

if you never charge

#

you never overheat

#

solved

shrewd acorn
wraith locust
#

pgun needs some sort of change tbh

low yacht
#

Or you just wait out of the cool down.

wraith locust
#

to make charge shots more worthwhile

low yacht
#

It doesn't.

low yacht
#

It's a skill issue if you can't use plasma.

wooden lotus
#

like every skill in the game has a duration

#

you have to keep refreshing it

#

so yes

wraith locust
wooden lotus
#

you have to keep the buff up to keep the buff going, or else it ticks down

wraith locust
#

im saying charged shots are bad

#

and you get too much value from brainless left click spam

#

making it strong

low yacht
#

Plasma gun works just fine. Brainless spam doesn't help.

shrewd acorn
wraith locust
low yacht
#

If you fire brainlessly you are just not getting much value.

wooden lotus
#

then after you run out it stops

#

it's best for contiuous fire

low yacht
#

Actually have to aim your shots to do anything valuable. Spamming is how you get it to overheat.

wooden lotus
#

for example: columnus stacks it to 5 but then if i keep firing the rest of the mag without letting go, it will keep dum-dum up

low yacht
#

If you want to continously fire at people use the boltgun.

wooden lotus
#

if i keep firing and hitting stuff within 0.5s~ that is

vernal harbor
#

😭

shrewd acorn
wooden lotus
#

yes

#

as long as you have that it's gonna be active until you stop firing and hitting shit long enough to make it go away

shrewd acorn
#

Ok, thank you! I just wasn't sure as it does stay green when I'm building up stacks

wooden lotus
#

yeah it's weird

#

i misunderstood at first too but i checked as you clarified

good one though

vernal harbor

Once you get to T5 specific builds kinda fall, everyone is expected to give good melee ranged and utility on their own I find

placid portal

The original

vernal harbor

So melee pure builds to me is like hearing “so you’re not gonna help with ranged and we’re gonna have to support your shortfalls for 35 minutes”

People don’t believe that

thick wolf

Which also begs the question why I haven't started a zealot operator yet

river wraith
#

its gorgeous

vernal harbor
#

People are going to beat me to death for this but I cannot replicate the efficiency I have had using melee as vet into zealot

#

Could be skill issue idk because im really good with zealot but vet just survives and thrives better while doing the same

trim steppe

It’s just being a lot squishier as a zealot

its suprising how good vet feels in melee

placid portal

Every vet has a tiney sly marbo in em

Like I’ve been cornered and forced to clutch against a handful of crushers and melee elites at once while solo and I’ve only ever done that as vet

wraith locust

Fills your toughness, gives you damage, drops aggro

shovel is the balanced ol reliable option

i love both but power sword feels so good

Shovel lacks armor solution
