those are too big imo

scarlet smelt
#

Well

#

Uh

#

3266 damage on a bulwark parry bodyshot

#

I need to figure out how to get it to hit the head

native hamlet
#

interesting hmmgryn

#

i wonder if there's a hitbox debug mod

balmy flume
#

Scion helmet is absolutely dope.
I run it with the green uniform and storm ranger Autogun. Perfect colour matches.

#

Time to farm the last 10 repair missions for that penance.
Then only Investiagtes left for that one dangly.

cedar pecan
slate sleet
#

so how come ogryn the class with the least complexity in the game has a condensed community made info dump yet we have the opposite of that

balmy flume
#

Because…we figured our stuff out on day one

#

Back when Vet was OP

slate sleet
#

?

balmy flume
#

Early release Darktide was… very different.
We vets were deleting entire maps with out abilities.

slate sleet
#

99% of people in here have no idea what they are talking about

bitter turtle
#

Least complex is easy to make an infodump for

serene sage
#

better go ask Reddit I guess

white minnow
#

well, if it's easier to make a guide for a class then i assume that there are probablistically more people who'd want to make a guide

potent iris
#

less complex typically means easier to explain

white minnow
#

imagine making a guide for the classes with more weapons

potent iris
#

but also ngl I think most vets and zealots who are really on the up and up with how shit works just can't be fucking arsed writing a guide

#

and the ones who can be tend to end up in ADHD procrastination hell instead of actually writing a guide (this is me)

I have saved 1000 people apparently

#

What blessings is recommended for the plasma gun ?

balmy flume
sharp ember
#

so not the end of the world if you have to keep Gloryhunter or something as a blessing

pure chasm
#

speaking of the plasma gun i got this but which perk should i change

sharp ember
#

unless you're into that

#

the difference both of these perks make are really small

abstract niche
#

I do love how the Sticky Grenades just chew through giant chunks of the Monstrocities Health too

flat dock
#

Opinions?

scarlet smelt
sharp moon
#

is there smthing that doesnt count as hit?... i had nearly perfect aim and yet didnt get achiev for having used all ammo with 90%+ accuracy, was using cantrael shotgun...

sharp ember
sharp moon
#

maybe, mostly with special mode

#

but they never been alone, so it always hit smthing else too

#

i will need the mod for statistics probably... to see it for real

sharp ember
#

that's all i can think of unfortunately

sharp moon
#

will give it 1 more try and then install mod, ty for tip, will try to jsut krak them

cedar pecan
#

what's the current infantry autogun meta

#

columnus mk V with dumdum and and raking fire?

muted knot
muted knot
#

The last blessing is whatever you want it to be

#

Fire frenzy for more damage

cedar pecan
#

and columnus mk v is the preferable model?

muted knot
#

Yes

#

It's the only real outlier in the IAG category

#

Higher dps than the others

cedar pecan
#

which blessing should I pick in this scenario then?

muted knot
#

Eh might keep speed loader, never hurts

#

Stripped down is kind of ass

sharp ember
#

stripped down is funny for sprinting towards shooters, if you always run a stamina curio

#

up to you which to swap

umbral scaffold
#

I found that with the sprint efficiency node at the top and stripped down 3 you are edging the 60%

#

I wonder if that and the +1 stamina below confirmed kill don't do the trick

sturdy crow
nimble sentinel
#

can it be saved fellas?

muted knot
#

No

#

None of the blessings are exactly optimal

#

Same with perks

#

I guess you could swap shred for rampage and carapace for flak

nimble sentinel
#

beans

muted knot
#

Problem is you need to hit your shred crit to trigger rampage

cedar pecan
#

is there a good darktide youtuber that posts talent builds?

torpid sundial
#

hmm

#

sprint to flak, shred to brutal momentum 🤔

vivid canyon
#

oh blessed axe.... those numbers...

#

i run breutal momentum and headtaker

fresh grail
#

the can opener Praydge

umbral scaffold
vivid canyon
#

also what do you folks look for on a zarona mk IIa revolver

umbral scaffold
#

Maniac, surgical, handcannon

#

Carapace too if you're feeling spicy

vivid canyon
#

i do feel pretty spicy

#

honestly though gloryhunter has surprisingly come in handy a few times

#

because i've been running melee vet, and being able to tank a slap mid horde because you pulled the revolver to pick off a sniper feels nice

umbral scaffold
#

Gloryhunter is very useful for weapons that aren't too nice with toughness, like knife

vivid canyon
#

or for me who will fly into a berzerker rage upon seeing a monstrosity

#

you don't understand i need my uptime

umbral scaffold
#

Or if for some reason or another you didn't put out for blood on your build

umbral scaffold
#

I really can't decide between the Columnus and Agri IAG.

barren cave
#

col all day for me

umbral scaffold
#

Believe I the agri can one-shot shooters at good ranges on vet

barren cave
#

columnus with the onslaught talent is monke brain 101

muted knot
#

I still don't think onslaught is needed on ciag

#

Why waste the ammo when you can just pull out your Powersword and 2 tap the crusher ?

barren cave
#

what powersword KEKW_ogryn

#

I run dclaw

muted knot
#

If you are gonna be a metaslave you might as well go all the way

muted knot
#

What is it ? 3 parrys ?

umbral scaffold
#

I tend to stick to the middle of the herd and just shout at people to restore toughness, so being able to spray things with the col is nice when it gets gnarly. I guess I'll go roll a col. I like that that rhymes.

odd sparrow
barren cave
#

3 parrys is too long tbh, id prefer onslaught

#

or kraks

I always feel like the thammer zealot, plasma vet or BB psyker drops the shit I would krak grenade before they have a chance to detonate.

Just don't have any of those in your group

Ez

umbral scaffold
#

Simple solutions

muted knot
#

Yeah we got that good advice

umbral scaffold
#

vote kick anyone who can do my job

#

thats some hobbesian shit right there

#

To the krak's credit, its small AoE comes in handy at times

#

I do like it, I just wish I got a chance to blow up crushers more with it

barren cave
#

krak is good, but I love me some shredder spam

umbral scaffold
#

watching 30 poxwalkers start to bleed is pleasing to the blood god

barren cave
#

although I like that I dont have to take tinkerer with krak, frees up some points

muted knot
#

Kraks do surprisingly well into mixed hordes

odd sparrow
# muted knot How the hell do youarrive at 5 to 10 times ?

we have atleast 3 times as many weapon options and roughly 1.5 more talents, with a lot of talent weapon interactions that should be mentioned. Vet also just has way more playstyle options based on weapon choice than ogryn. Ogryn is always somewhat locked into trash clearing.

while vet can do a bit of everything.

looking at the ogryn document i would guess 5 times is propably the more accurate estimate

It’s insane how common it is to make a single misstep and get disabled then for that .1 second the teammates take to look/acknowledge you’ve been disabled, it’s caused irreparable damage to their focus and their entire mental state is untied

just me or are alot of the las weapons kinda...

#

why is the original las pistol the best of em

scarlet smelt
#

I've actually wiped in like a single game today from someone accidentally whiffing at a barrel and instantly killing three (plus me)

#

original las pistol fires fast and I think actually has damage bonus against flak

#

Oh you mean the best of all las weapons

#

idk mobility maybe

#

I've been having a strange amount of fun with this loadout in Damnation

#

Even tried the maelstrom damnation mission occasionally in the normal mission selector

#

Onslaught absolutely fucking carries the recon lasgun though

and they hide your face

i WOULD use the green frame but it doesnt suit krieg

so people know I'm not that new

any vraks7 enjoyers here?

zealous wyvern

yes

dusty sluice

its funny seing a lvl 50< with this frame

zealous wyvern

it is the only headhunter i use regularly

i think they messed up by making the frames get thicker inwards

instead of outwards

if you know what i mean

i like seeing my head thank you

Anyone here that might help me to hit a breakpoint with shovel 3 on a mauler with this setup? I dont wanna change the talent tree at all so tell me if this can work for one shotting maulers in the head without limbsplitter? Also, can I hit the breakpoint if I change cara to 25% or thrust to 4? I dont wanna do both

here is the dmg number without limbsplitter

from the middle tree

oh

idunno if you're not changing

does it have uncanny strike like the normal shovel or nah

ehh that wouldn't do enough even on the two parter hit I think

pistol also good

infantry lasguns also good

only reacon isnt good

flint lake

Shotgun still ain’t that hot

muted knot

Shotguns can do some serious work

sick marsh
flint lake
#

Got some great buffs last patch but the fact it still can’t body shot a shotgunner at close range is shameful

scarlet smelt
#

yeah recon lasguns are kind of piddly pathetic

flint lake
#

It ought to be just as powerful as the revolver at close range with a steep drop off making it less efficient beyond 15m

scarlet smelt
#

but I got it to be okay viable in damnation and that's fine with me

scarlet smelt

kek just wait untill they release the shotgun las.... itll be funny to see that happen

thnx hadron for not bein a heretic this time

pale spear
#

What is considered the best recon las gun?

stone folio
#

6d no?

#

or it was before the free bullet on crit got nerfed

#

should have the highest DPS at the cost of worst ammo efficiency

dusty sluice
frank ether
#

this is gold

#

whenever I equip r*con I ask myself the same question tbh

sharp moon
#

does teammate ammo regen counts towards no ammo penance? 4th try and still nothing... do shotgun pellets have to land all? i thought jsut 1 is enough

scarlet smelt
frank ether
frank ether
#

guy pulled a scoreboard with like

#

25+ something ammo pickups

scarlet smelt
#

Yeah sounds like me

#

I try not to grief though so I let others have the ammo unless they're all mostly full

#

Otherwise, suppression from recon is no joke when you encounter an oops all gunners room

frank ether
#

it actually annoys me on recon

pastel geode
#

Suppression do silence the shooters

frank ether
#

because it needs headshot to kill fast

#

it does in a narrow cone

#

what you need to know is

#

it wont supress the entire room

scarlet smelt
#

Yeah

#

I just wave my gun in a horizontal line and most of them go silent though

#

That's enough for a counter push in

scarlet smelt
#

Exactly

frank ether
#

bruh

#

wild

scarlet smelt
#

I used the suppression dealt node and talent in the middle tree

pastel geode
#

Me with the brauto

frank ether
#

you ''supress'' on brauto by design

#

its inaccurate

pastel geode
#

I know

frank ether
#

tho tbh it is much much better at suppressing than other guns too so there is that

#

just by design

#

having fat ass magazine

scarlet smelt
#

I also got the recon to suppress Reapers

#

So there's also that

frank ether
#

god please dont suppress reapers dfgkhsdf

#

they do that stupid animation

#

where they cover their head

#

and I have to shoot them 3x more ssdfkg

scarlet smelt
#

I also got the recon to kill said Reaper

#

So it's not anyone's problem but mine

#

:P

pastel geode
scarlet smelt
#

Look at any given time if there's just gunners and reapers and fuckshit

stone folio
#

ugh new weapons when fatshark

scarlet smelt
#

I'm going to give the entire room botched laser eye surgery

stone folio
#

i swear new weapon patches end up being the most fun

scarlet smelt
#

And we'll storm them in melee and they just can't shoot at us anymore

pastel geode
#

I prefer giving the room high impact lead poisoning

scarlet smelt
#

Definitely more effective

stone folio
#

single barrel stubber for vet when

frank ether
#

there are many guns scabs and dregs get

#

but we don't

#

hellguns, belt-fed lmgs, longlas etc

scarlet smelt
#

I'd take a hellgun or hotshot

stone folio
#

i want something belt fed for the vet

placid portal
#

A personal stubba

#

Stubbas are just machineguns, and the Stubbas that ogryns use are twin linked so single barrel stubba for dakka gaming

stone folio
#

like the talent page has been annoying me with the left most picture

frank ether
#

some proper lmg would be cool

slate sleet
frank ether
stone folio
#

of a vet just hipfiring a belt fed weapon like a badass while being assisted by a shoulder mounted targeting laser, gimme that!

slate sleet
#

it looks and feels like one

stone folio
#

id like one thats capable of accurately aiming down sight

frank ether
stone folio
#

just give it tons of recoil to make it hard to control

slate sleet
#

agripina IAG is what you are describing

stone folio
#

not enough ammo in the mag

slate sleet
#

graia IAG

stone folio
frank ether
#

It will either trade away DPS or it will trade accuracy/mobility

#

maybe all 3

slate sleet
#

its pretty much a given we will get some heavy weapon style gun at some point

#

it would be amazing if it was a full on hotshot las or some mg42 thing like dreg gunners have

frank ether
#

I just don't think slow braced lmg would synergize well with exec stance at all.

#

which is kinda ironic they put the machinegunner on the left side image

slate sleet
#

the pictures are just art its not a repesentation of anything

frank ether
#

its just funy

slate sleet
#

left side tree would be a wheelchair krieger doing 80% overkill damage if it was accurate

frank ether
#

I think the main problem with exec is nothing but the fact that you are competing with your teammates to begin with

stone folio
#

depends, i could see the LMG being funny if exec stance suddenly makes it accurate and easily controlable

frank ether
#

and by its nature having it coupled with an inaccurate slow ''support'' sort of weapon

#

just doesnt work

#

and its double funy for people who take highlight for allies

#

so their teammates can steal their kills guaranteeing exec will end early

#

then neither teammates keep the highlight nor do you keep the exec stance

stone folio
#

..........me who doesnt take highlight for allies cuz they never shoot what i spot

slate sleet
#

the gun balance contradicts what the lift side tree is trying to do

stone folio
#

true

frank ether
#

Its exec stance that doesn't fit the game at this point

slate sleet
#

its supposed to be the sniper style gameplay but almost all actual precision guns like that dont need anything that tree has to offer to reach breakpoints

#

so it turns into some bastardized version of itself where the actual benefitors are low damage rapid fire guns

frank ether
#

It wasnt a problem when vet was the dedicated class for elite/special hunting with the only ability designed for it

slate sleet
#

who have a much easier time keeping the chain buff going

#

literally the only change exec stance needs to become actually usable is the camo expert node from infitrate being added to it

frank ether
#

helbores value the instant weapon swap but the problem is, both VoC/Infiltrate also give you the room to reload/swap while also replenishing your toughness

#

camo expert

#

lmao

#

oh that brings back funny memories

#

I think they probably thought about camo expert on the marksman keystone

slate sleet
#

camo expert never left

#

its just part of infiltrate now

frank ether
#

Now that you have a marksman focused keystone having an ability also do the same thing but differently is dumb

slate sleet
#

and its just as broken as it sounds

frank ether
slate sleet
#

i use my gun 90% of the time

#

with a infil build

#

and a raking fire agrip

#

its incredibly good

#

i literally dumped every single defensive talent i had because i just do not get hit ever by anything anymore

#

90% less aggro for 10 sec means that the only thing that will ever touch you is like 2 random poxwalkers per wave

#

infiltrate with camo expert lets you actually shoot stuff like a marksman because you dont have 10 pipers spawning out of the door behind you trying to beat you to death 24/7

stone folio
#

i understand the agrip brauto is the closest to an LMG we can get, but ive been trolled by it so much cuz im forced to take out distant targets like snipers etc

frank ether
#

too bad

stone folio
#

that i dont like using it

frank ether
#

going from survivalist-infiltrate and back to left tree

#

you pay a lot of tax

#

I saw some helbore infiltrate builds on yt

#

and all of them rather garbage

slate sleet
#

yeah you lose like 3 points

#

sucks but its the price you pay for one of the absolute best dps setup builds in the game

tidal rapids
#

If I take a blessing from say a Graia IAG, would it be usable on a CIAG?

slate sleet
#

no

tidal rapids
#

Both are IAGs but different patterns

slate sleet
#

blessings are weapon specific

stone folio
#

as long as they belong to the specific weapon group you can

#

brace auto guns blessings wont be able to apply infantry auto gun blessings

slate sleet
#

no

stone folio
#

but if you take a blessing from the agrip IAG you can put it on the columnus IAG

slate sleet

blessings you get from agrip brauto will only work for agrip brauto

e.g., if you got a blessing from a graia braced auto, that gets to be used on the agri and columnus brauto

i already swapped out stamina efficiency for carapace

so i've only got one change

#

I could swap carapace for maniac tho, ig

#

i have a wrath 4 power sword sitting in the wrings

#

this thing already cleaves like a hot knife through butter ,though.

#

sunder 4 on another

late hatch
#

i dont think cara is really worth except in a few rare cases to pass breakpoints. maniac is great coz of the enemies it covers includes ragers and trappers and one of the flamers i think?
flak is generally useful as many of the mid tier enemies have flak and you can cut the hits needed to kill them. but if you use charge well you can carve them up with that

icy light
#

My revolver already oneshots gunners and shotgunners

#

I'm running the target mark keystone

#

It takes four shots to down a marked crusher, for reference

late hatch
#

mauler chest is flak, generally better to chest them rather than headshot

yeah, i'm aware of that.

late hatch
#

maniac best damage perk

#

then flak

ok thx for help... first try revolver done xD

late hatch

if you want to go something else for a specific build fine. but they are the most rec as they are the most useful in the most places

I think i'm gonna swap out supercharge for sunder or wrath

This power sword mostly exists to say 'Get off of me so i can get back to doming specialists and elites'

So deleting hordes is a very good thing for it

then why take cara on it?

Some advice here please, I guees unarmored -> flak and deathspitter -> dum dum is the way to go here?

stiff merlin
# stone folio why is the original las pistol the best of em

The Kantrael is very good a popping heads and can one shot headshot like the best but the thing about lasweapons is with Vet they can be very ammo efficient. Still had basically a full ammo load at the end of mission without any ammo pickups. Its just they're very weird and do more damage the farther away you are (unless certain perks are being reflected on weapon stats)

#

except the recons

sharp moon
#

oh yeah, definitely gonna take shock trooper, VIIa lasgun
so far this, jsut hit 30 level so i can try to roll some weapons finaly .)

agile yew
#

Oh wait, also want crit aim that uses stamina

muted knot
untold mulch
#

At least he didn't say Recon II

muted knot
#

It's in there

rare tartan
#

yeah , if you wanna use lasgun , is probs better to use pistol or hellbore

untold mulch
#

laspistol with fullauto mod

#

is a better recon than recon

late hatch
#

and yeah full auto mod makes them not give you RSI

untold mulch
#

I would use laspistol more, but they nerfed the ROF of the basic one back to prepatch

late hatch
#

also FOV mod means you can use them like sniper rifles

stiff merlin
#

How does suppression work?

untold mulch
#

You aim worse

#

Them, they cower in cover

#

and scatter

#

perhaps also accuracy loss

sharp ember
#

eh i draw the line at FOV altering if the gun wasn't meant to do it

untold mulch
#

I like how this game does suppression

#

more shooters need to get more creative to make covering fire actually useful

agile yew
#

I feel bad at times killing those enemies just hiding scared while im on killing spree

stiff merlin
#

I know on Gunner Ogryn with heavy stubber you can lockdown a horde, its nice, I'm just not sure what weapons for Vet could do that

sharp ember
#

the braced autoguns are the best at applying suppression

#

most automatic weapons will do it if you shoot enough and the enemy type is cowardly enough

white minnow
#

yeah the agri brauto is your friend if you want to shoot down hordees

sharp ember
#

killing enemies with a boltgun or plasma gun will cause a small "oh shit" suppression around the enemy you kill

white minnow
#

the agrri brauto in particular since it has 3 cleave

#

compared to the medium variant, the columnus, which has 2.1 cleave

late hatch
untold mulch
#

Agri brauto I noticed a lot of enemies just not shooting me period because I only did a half burst in the direction

#

Feels very good

late hatch
#

like half the guns are barely usable without modding sights on them

terse idol
sharp ember
#

the stagger and suppression values built into the agri brauto are pretty stronk

rare tartan
terse idol
barren cave
late hatch
#

bolter and HB irons are aids

stiff merlin
#

The lack of sights is a bit disappointing, but we are a penal group. Though, at 30 we're supposed to be full members of the warband so.....

untold mulch
#

Yeah usable

they are still terrible

barren cave
#

hb I kinda get , since you do want precision aim

untold mulch
#

Afterwards we are expendable troops to say

#

and yeah at 30 we are warband members

stiff merlin
#

Anyone else slightly disappointed by the fact the other Headhunters don't have hyperburst?

terse idol
#

Bolt gun is just square

#

In theory fs do want to add weapon customization

#

But that's probably pretty far down the road

untold mulch
#

I wish to see more of the dialogue, because maybe we will get some real respect

#

Rannick already was like 🤨 damn this crackheads lowkey good

zealous wyvern
#

i wish ghost was just a little longer

terse idol
zealous wyvern
#

i just so keep losing the immunity before landing another shot sometimes

terse idol
#

Its already kiinda here

zealous wyvern
#

when it matters

#

dialogue does change yeah

#

melk, hadron, guards

#

maybe psyker?

untold mulch
#

Guards I noticed

#

the rest I didn't in an obvious way

#

but been a long while since I was low level

#

Even with alternate characters I kinda bulldoze through low level quickly

zealous wyvern
#

i also think the lines of mission advisors change depending on difficulty played

chrome pumice
#

when can we have this for vet

zealous wyvern
#

if you play sedition, they talk about you worse than if you play damnation but i might be imagining things

sharp moon
zealous wyvern
#

its bad but you can make it work with some build

barren cave
zealous wyvern
#

dumdum+headhunter, onslaught is a must, lasgun ammo refill

#

krak grenades are probably still a good idea

zealous wyvern
#

and you need a solid melee so you dont waste ammo on hordes

untold mulch
chrome pumice
#

DAMN RIGHT

zealous wyvern
#

i like the fist-shaped wax seal

#

thats some merch-store level design

untold mulch
# sharp moon really? oh man

Up to malice if you still playing it, it should be perfectly okay

But in Heresy-Damnation you are underperforming
If you can make it work, sure go for it, but be aware of the fact

#

Recon requires way too much ammo intake for performing decent

untold mulch
zealous wyvern
#

they never really talk down to me when i play normally

#

but when im low level i think they talk more shit about you

untold mulch
#

Huh

zealous wyvern
#

and its not the level since people can be different levels in the party

#

so it must be my choice of difficulty

#

i usually level on uprising

untold mulch
#

Would make sense,

#

and be nice

sharp ember
#

the recons can kill trash shooters fine enough, it's just that they lack the damage output and ammo to kill anything bigger efficiently

zealous wyvern
#

it would indeed

zealous wyvern
#

even normal ppl cost too much ammo

sharp ember
#

and you kill a lot of bigger things at higher diffs

untold mulch
#

You can do the bare minimum job, but against the big threats you have the worst peashooter

zealous wyvern
#

since recon not only shoots super fast but also uses multiple numbers per bullet

#

like all lasguns

sharp ember
#

a lot of smaller things too tbh

untold mulch
#

Recon if they don't have the will to fix its damage problems, needs a shit ton of ammo more

zealous wyvern
#

i dont see how its a problem to just give it the same dps as other guns

untold mulch
#

Fatshark could have just upped the base ammo until they get over it

zealous wyvern
#

literally just make it an autogun

untold mulch
#

Like autogun recoil is hard to control

zealous wyvern
#

as if autoguns had recoil lmao

untold mulch
#

EXACTLY

terse idol
#

yegh I gotta like test this more

zealous wyvern
#

also one thing just being better than another isnt as big a problem

#

as one thing being shit

terse idol
#

Becauuuuse the vest recon model is doing as much damage as some iags
The ammo econ is just worse

zealous wyvern
#

just because 2 things are top tier, other things dont suddenly stop being fun

terse idol
#

Gonna run back the drawing board

untold mulch
#

Like dear lord, the recoil of autoguns is so easy KEKW_ogryn

I have played games where recoil feels more like the Bolter shooting fullauto while ADSing KEKW_ogryn

zealous wyvern
#

Vid

#

btw

#

the other two are bad im pretty sure

#

the local recon man says VId, dumdum+headhunter, onslaught and lasgun refund ammo

untold mulch
zealous wyvern
#

exactly

#

expression is a big part of games

untold mulch
#

having niche guns for stuff is how you get Halo Infinite MP

#

that is so boring

zealous wyvern
#

you can bet i wont stop using helbores just because they release a better charging rifle

untold mulch
#

I mean better? yeah kinda need a balance

#

side-grade?

zealous wyvern
#

no even a little better is fine

untold mulch
#

eh, yeah a bit is okay

zealous wyvern
#

otherwise wed all be running around with plasma, columnus or revolver

untold mulch
#

but careful with power creep

zealous wyvern
#

but we arent

#

are we?

#

sure meta slaves do that

untold mulch
#

I run now with Bolter

zealous wyvern
#

but ppl who actually just play the game to have fun dont and clear t5 fine

untold mulch
#

Bolter is a "DMR" I acutally found fun using

#

No headshots

#

Just nuke their souls

zealous wyvern
#

not once have i had the urge to complain that plasma and revolver are super strong

#

all that matters is that my gun does good

#

not if others do better

#

although ofc you need to make sure a gun isnt so good that it ERASES the map

#

like assail once did

zealous wyvern
#

thats a problem since it steals gameplay from the others

#

so i hope they just make recon an autogun

#

if all the metaslaves swap to it from autoguns so what

#

i dont see how its a problem

untold mulch
#

I am content with it feeling like I am not trolling my other 3 allies

#

Because if I do like shit

#

is not my time I am wasting

#

is 3 others time

zealous wyvern
#

yeah

untold mulch
#

and sadly for me

terse idol
untold mulch
#

Recon fits in that

terse idol
#

The fastest firing one is best

#

The mid range is the worst

#

The slow firing one is okay

untold mulch
#

VId > VIIa > > > > II

terse idol
#

Yuhh

untold mulch
#

I need more > >

#

Only thing it has is better ammo economy

#

but you are doing so little dps

frank ether
untold mulch
#

I play with the max the game allows

frank ether
#

right now I'm not very happy about iag recoil either as it starts strong but then immediately stops kicking

untold mulch
#

I need to search a mod if I can get 110-120 fov

#

I wish for the zoomies

frank ether
#

your max fov is meaningless

#

because

#

the game zooms in to a certain fov when you ads anyways

untold mulch
#

I believe another mod fixes that? KEKW_ogryn

#

Also when I use autogun

frank ether
#

yes thats what I was getting at

untold mulch
#

ADS is not my normal shooting stance

frank ether
#

there are mods to get rid of exec zoom

#

or the weapon ads zoom

#

but its a fair trade off in my eyes

#

on more long range capable guns I keep the FoV as is

untold mulch
#

Hmm

frank ether
#

like agri iag

#

can just one tap gunners across a room

#

the small ones

muted knot
#

You can onetaps gunner switch agri ?

zealous wyvern
#

that sounds like a crit

gusty bison
#

Shooters u mean

zealous wyvern
#

i cant even onetap them with headhunters

frank ether
#

yes

#

shooters

muted knot
#

Ah shooters

zealous wyvern
#

ah

muted knot
#

Makes sense

untold mulch
#

Still nice

zealous wyvern
#

ah shooters

gusty bison
zealous wyvern
#

with right setup yes

#

i do

gusty bison
#

Ah fair ye

zealous wyvern
#

but without any setup, no

gusty bison
#

Well

#

HHs are garbage damage without setup

frank ether
#

think its fair you have to invest some talents into it

balmy flume
zealous wyvern
#

yeah thats fine

#

im just saying i doubt agri could without crit if HH cant

#

without setup

frank ether
#

I think currently the only issue I see with HH guns is how the marksman flavored ability/keystone works

#

but thats not a gun issue

zealous wyvern
#

i would prefer a different keystone

untold mulch
#

Marksman Focus is a poorly thought keystone

#

don't @ me 🗿

frank ether
#

as if exec isnt enough headache

zealous wyvern
#

and sadly adds almost nothing to actual marksman guns

muted knot
#

@untold mulch

zealous wyvern
#

because they ALREADY oneshot

untold mulch
zealous wyvern
#

all marksman really does is overkill dmg

#

its bad

muted knot
zealous wyvern
#

and the stacks are horrible to hold

untold mulch
#

Like I think only Vraks 7 gets real benefit?

untold mulch
#

Like some here say is easy

#

but I feel like they are assuming their usual aim is the norm?

muted knot
frank ether
#

my aim is a lot better when I can play naturally and not bother with stupid time gated gimmicks

zealous wyvern
#

true

frank ether
#

deadshot is the only well designed marksman talent for veteran

#

and everything else is utter garbage

zealous wyvern
#

FUCK deadshot

#

i hate deadshot

#

but i guess its fair

#

i hate that stamina loss

untold mulch
#

I am not a terrible shot, but I prefer my mind focusing on positioning, threat directions and my movement

Than being mentally pushing myself to shoot heads constantly instead of whatever bodypart is easiest now

frank ether
#

skill issue

zealous wyvern
#

yes

frank ether
#

build stamina

zealous wyvern
#

i do

#

its fine now

#

but that doesnt mean i like it

#

ok?

untold mulch
#

Deadshot with Bolter is my jam

#

Barely lose stamina

#

get the 30% stamina er dodge

frank ether
#

you're the only class that can turn stamina into free dps

#

with only one talent point

zealous wyvern
#

im running MGIa

#

with it

stiff merlin
zealous wyvern
#

and have like +4 stamina

muted knot
zealous wyvern
balmy flume
#

If I wasn't sucdh an IAG addict I should try Deadshot Bolter...

frank ether
#

+4 is not a lot

untold mulch
zealous wyvern
#

and im doing fine honestly

#

although it seems weird that i only have +4. my stamina bar is so big

frank ether
#

yes, its not a lot for iLas that gets meh base stamina to begin with

untold mulch
zealous wyvern
#

i love how on my shovel i have infinite stamina now

frank ether
#

throw another +3

zealous wyvern
#

due to all the stamina

untold mulch
#

imo the only real GOOD vet keystone

#

Weapon Spec nerfs its gun synergy for no reason

#

MF is just

#

dumb

frank ether
#

weapon spec is still really good for iags

stiff merlin
frank ether
#

yes you dont get full crit

#

but you get RoF

#

which is strong

zealous wyvern
#

focus fire is a good one imo

#

like what 50% more dmg to the target?

untold mulch
zealous wyvern
#

and a quick toughness fix for everyone

#

i think its insane

untold mulch
#

The +stamina/toughness

#

FOR EVERYONE?

zealous wyvern
#

dmg and toughness to me are amazing

untold mulch
zealous wyvern
#

it often makes the oneshot possible

untold mulch
#

I just tag as normal

frank ether
untold mulch
#

and all allies get buffs

frank ether
#

but the bonus is

zealous wyvern
#

and on bosses, it makes a MASSIVE difference

frank ether
#

that initial crit

#

probably causes a crit string

untold mulch
frank ether
#

so you get more crit per crit anyways

untold mulch
#

Zealots get +25% crit

#

by existing in their left keystone

frank ether
#

look the problem is not zealots getting free crit

untold mulch
#

I meant as a comparison

frank ether
#

problem is your marksman ability/keystone having silly conditions

untold mulch
#

Yeah

frank ether
#

and punishing you for playing the game the way its meant to be played

zealous wyvern
#

i love farming blessings

#

im starting to fill out I and II blessings

frank ether
#

punished for moving, weapon swapping, using grenades, dodging, sliding

zealous wyvern
#

on most weapons

#

this is as satisfying as filling a pokedex

untold mulch
#

But that

Tag is good keystone that rewards a good mechanic tag threats

frank ether
#

tags good I changed my opinion on it

untold mulch
#

Weapon Spec is good if you go melee, but I dislike the gun aspect of the basic keystone

frank ether
#

because its a very low effort keystone

untold mulch
#

Marskman Focus is just staregryn

frank ether
#

so considering that its actually rly good

agile yew
frank ether
#

you just press mark every 10 seconds and get mad benefits

zealous wyvern
#

that looks ridiculous

untold mulch
#

Most of the kickback I had and I think several others about Tag keystone

#

is that the tooltip

#

is written like absolute dogshit

frank ether
#

yea and the real good stuff are in the modifiers

agile yew
#

To fire that minigun, you need ogryn in team to punch you 20cm deep into the ground first so you wont just fly backwards instantly upon firing

frank ether
#

it also changed from first tease to actual release

stone folio
#

tbf on mini's they make the guns really big to get some details across

untold mulch
#

Weapon Spec honestly is mostly for full melee vet

Change gun, shoot at anything

#

have 5 seconds of silly melee

#

I could chain it with laspistol quickly

frank ether
#

10

untold mulch
#

IS 10?

frank ether
#

melee proc was 10 seconds last I checked

#

its 5 sec for ranged proc

untold mulch
#

Imo, I still don't quite like the keystone but I am mostly sure because I prefer mostly ranged

zealous wyvern
#

how is the man even holding the gun

#

hed fall over

#

i swear the balance is way off

untold mulch
zealous wyvern
#

he would just fall forwar

#

FOR THE EMPEROR

untold mulch
#

BELIEVE KORPSMAN

zealous wyvern
#

you are right

stone folio
#

eh they gotta change marksmen focus somehow....

frank ether
#

well if you prefer ranged you're supposed to build left tree which is the problem KEKW_ogryn

barren cave
#

the bolter?

frank ether
#

At least they made the decision easy for rational people

stone folio
#

standing still just aint it

barren cave
#

just build both trees, no keystone vet is the way pogryn

untold mulch
#

At least I always get rending strikes

#

so picking tag keystone

#

has no "tax" for me

frank ether
#

they put precision/deadshot up so you can just take the good stuff and leave the marksman brainrot playstyle alone

zealous wyvern
#

rending strike seems weird to me

#

10% is good sure

#

but is it really THAT good?

untold mulch
#

Is a decentish bonus to every damage

zealous wyvern
#

some people go into that tree just for that talent

#

and i feel like that is overselling 10%

untold mulch
#

it helps with everything

zealous wyvern
#

good to pick up on the way of course

frank ether
#

good for some weapons

untold mulch
#

shooting armor

#

shooting at long range

zealous wyvern
#

rending helps with long range dropoff?

untold mulch
#

I heard yes

frank ether
#

on some weapons it does

untold mulch
#

Sooo its very nice

barren cave
untold mulch
#

and tag basically makes my Toughness to be 100%

frank ether
#

some weapons have different armor pen values based on range

frank ether
#

so yes rending helps when thats the case

#

you can inspect weapons to learn more about it

#

they'll list different damage percentage tables for near and far

#

when its below %100, rending gives big value

dusty sluice
#

replace both blessings or replace hammerblow and unyielding?

primal forge
#

Real quick, does anyone have advice for dealing with the "On Overwatch" penance?

untold mulch
#

I have said it before

marksman focus feels they just basically went backwards to balance it around

#

and headshot fishing is not for everyone

#

but that, weapons that fish headshots

#

already are oneshotting most

#

so whats the point

frank ether
#

I don't think mf is as bad as exec still

#

you can take a VoC build and throw mf in it as free ranged damage

barren cave
#

the point is you use the rapid fire weapons to hit headshots, and you use the single shot weapons for stuff like close quarters killzone KEKW_ogryn

untold mulch
#

The design team is having a blast

#

throwing random stuff at the table

frank ether
#

they dont like ranged play

untold mulch
#

I am mostly sure yeah, they don't want people being able to play ranged

frank ether
#

well not for veteran at least

untold mulch
#

or at least they do not want to favor it in any way

languid terrace
#

That's a lot of (first target) damage!

untold mulch

limbsplitter is okay but there's better ones imo since it doesn't cooldown while you're attacking

untold mulch

is the pick shovel

Limbsplitter I only see it if you plan to use it once every once in a while

dusty sluice

i mean i could do funny crusher one hit shovel

untold mulch

Fair but only every 4 seconds

Which is not funny when you got 5 on your ass

limbsplitter should still charge when you're using it tbh

kind of weird it doesn't

When you hit with it charging

it doesn't reset?
