well the silence suggests otherwise to me but who knows
True that
GET ME MY 9MM RIP
I am coping we get some fucking info already
nah I dont want info at this point
Wnat update yes
they been silent for too long
might aswell just silently drop an update
whenever its ready
Fatshark still thinks being silent helps them
dear fellow vets, please tell me how to fix this 
They tried not being silent.
It went worse.
Kinda scuffed tbh
it doesn't but I can imagine worse alternatives
I guess slaughterer for rev it up
@pearl granite Heavy attacks only otherwise it grinds. Look for something like this. Generally speaking Maniax and Flak are the best bets, and the blessings Headtaker/Thrust, SLaughterer
Honestly I feel like the reason it went wrong is because their management is so incompetent they simply don't know what they working on
limbsplitter seems useless to me ever since i found out that the cooldown goes back to max every time you hit something
okay, thanks
even tho I'd say I've seen a lot worse in other games
people are animals
its all a perception thing
i dont understand why ppl cant be mature about it
You're on the internet
People are animals
let them know their faults, dont start talking about shit and fuck
Because there is a lot of idiots who never grew up
i already have another good shovel so i may aswell do the sillly
In case you forgot
i wish ppl still behaved
wow
People have become too comfortable about talking shit on the internet because they won't get punched in the face
i am the shovel collector
ppl SHOULD review bomb when they nerf the Emperors tools of war
any nerf is a direct support for the heretics
fatshark is full of traitors?
It's not just the internet, look at how shitty people can be irl to service workers
Eh, at least in the states far less people are willing to punch you in the face when you talk shit. Maybe it's just me and Florida.... Stand your ground and all.
I think everyone has a right to
say their piece and move on
the whole review bomb thing was very silly
but they brought it on themselves in my eyes
Everyone has the right to an opinion.
They dont have a right to harassment.
Review bombing is harrassment?
what perk should I replace?
I mean it depends on the situation
Ehhh depends
In this case is dumb
I dont think review bombing is harassment though
In others review bombing is deserved
It really depends
i meant this case indeed
This game at launch deserved review bombing
true
The psword nerf didnt
I feel like a punch in the face would be my preferred outcome...
@gusty bison I don't think randos collective review bombing is harassment of an individual, and Companies cannot have feelings, morales, life goals, etc they are not alive.
companies consist of people
You can very much harass a group/organization
And it also depends on why the review bombing is conducted. How it is conducted. And to what extent it is done.
Theres definitely people you hit with hate towards companies, but mostly not the ones responsible
It’s when people go for specific developers that it’s harassment in my book
fatshark hasnt exactly been acting like some innocent small indie company
they can't pull the ''we're tightly nit small community'' card
Mhm. I'd agree, but like. Some of the complaints are fucking dumb
And honestly blown way out of proportion
Which takes away from the actual legitimate concerns
Wasn't their old community manager or whatever an asshole though?
@gusty bison and Organization again as in Company non-profit etc cannot have feelings, morales etc. Until they start imprisoning Organizations for crimes they imprison individuals for, it's rather just a money tactic to build sympathy. The workers, yes they could be harassed individually, but review bombing is focusing the direction and choices of a company.
Review bombing can be valid but often focus too much on “devs are bad” and not enough “management isn’t doing anything to make it better”
Sadly dumbfucks are everywhere
Or sometimes its literally "I dont like X change"
sure but I'm just desensitized to all the incompetent devs around the globe using ''death threats'' for why they are incompetent or lazy
He wasnt great at the job to say the least.
CM is a terrible job, but he made it harder for himself
The psword review bomb was so fuckibg dumb.
The amount of times I hear that and is always okay where is the proof?
thats pathetic
Leave the individuals (personal lives) out of the companies decision. People review bomb cars like the new ones that are making you pay monthly for features in your car like heaters, etc This isn't solely to Game companies either.
Yea, sometimes valid but sometimes people overreact and can’t live with the fact something could of been validly nerfed (and don’t realise that it could be fixed in future)
I mean. People also review bomb for power sword nerf
Sooo
Management in Fatshark is so noticiable dogshit
The joke is of ALL the fuckups FS did. Its the psword nerf that got the big review bomb
I mean, they are owned by tencent
Honestly that's the funniest part
remember the fake death treat fiasco after the unity drama
Psword?
Powersword
Wait wha
like
crocodile tears
Like an actual legitimate 100% warranted nerf that still left the weapon top of its class
literally
What’d they do to it
People review bombed on that
Even with alot of the changes and mistakes FS did... the biggest review bomb was the psword nerf lmao
(And the mixed review Darktide got for a horrible launch)
@gusty bison Honestly, while they won't admit it, it an issue due to way crafting system is done. You spend days trying to find a specific item grinding for it to become trash, with no return. Yeah people are going toi review bomb. It's not so much about the Psword, but about the effort to get it to only get effed and told do it again, and no we aren't fixing the crafting system.
No you dont
No lol
I mean
There is the concept of the drop that broke the camel back
It does not need to be the real important thing, but patience breaks
in case of power sword nerf I would have absolutely defended fatshark except they dug themselves into that hole where no one would defend them
Back at launch you had 3 swings powered up by default
They were unironically complaining that vet is now worthless and the game is ruined
but the psword is STILL meta
Its why power cycler 4 is a thing
its just not as op anymore
so again, they put themselves into that position where they had no credibility
it just looked like they took the money and ran
Yeah, some devs saw that just making shit up coudl get brownie points and were caught
So shitty
And after the nerf the psword was still the best melee in the gamr.
Huh?
How did they dig themselves?
@zealous wyvern I see far more running chain sword than psword cept those returning that don't have a chain sword
This was way back
Make a clown fiasco game launch
When chainsword was ASS
People just couldn't cope that their op weapon wasn't op anymkre
Wtf did they even do to the powersword, I’m so confused
Exactly this
The people that would defend them, is utterly tired of their shit
It used to have 7 powered swings with PC4
they just made it less overpowerdly stupid
Even then, darktide was highly reviewed by most outlets that's the issue
thats all
And higher damage
I wasnt even around to test psword changes lmao
And inf cleave
Experienced a better launch than vt2
most outlets
like uh
game journalists?
lmao
Crafting sucks and the original PSword complaints after its first nerf were also stupid as fuck. These aren't contradictory opinions to hold.
And content crrators like jfj
so was halo infinite
oh yea content creators
aka leeches
@devout comet They nerfed the hell out of it, and it was needed. This isn't really about the psword but reaction to effort to get a good one, and how much more effort to hunt for a replacement. A few weapons got stuff like this. The Flamer and Fire staff also got hit but not near as hard.
darktide was confusing on launch, tbh. it was simultaneously an awesome game and a shit game
You can say that all you want, it's valid
For fucking real
But it still launched well
Tbf even after the nerf, the meta sword was still meta
Which is crazy
It wasnt like they ruined psword
Because the systems were fucked
It was definitely incomplete. Combat was all I cared about though.
everything else was still rather shite
There was BM axes
Just be glad this isn't Payday3, if you think darktide is bad go see payday 3 less than 700 users last week peak
But like
Which kept darktide mixed
OOF
Darktide at launch was what it is now aka a great thematic 40k game, problem was that it had very little replayability
BM axes required half a braincell
They did not.
I'm still so sad man
I'm not here to talk whataboutisms
I thought they'd learn
I didnt buy payday
Payday 3 has fundamental issues
I mean new BM is also pretty busted but old BM was some serious brain off gameplay
I bought GTFO instead
And I got what I paid for you know
The moment I saw the game it gave a bad vibe
Over a year for darktide has been great
W h a t w a s t h e n e r f t h o u g h
No they released a 18 Euro heist
Wasn't Payday 3 done by a whole different dev team?
Lul
Darktide did and still does, but it isn't as bad.
Don't think about it. I think I got it on a Damnation run when I wasn't even trying
Yeah
Like same company just much different people behind it.
It reduced the number of charged swings
=.=
Ive said this 3 times now
space bar is your friend
What was the nerf again?
@devout comet Damage nerf, Cleave nerf, PC number of hits nerf
Yeah I don't think they actually read the messages 
All I can say for payday 3 is that it feels... more modern?
But its just god awful
Powersword?
wasnt payday 2 also a MTX infested shitfest?
I sentence you to silent poxburster
The skill tree
what did you even expect
Ass
Ah wait ur memeing
Ok, so this is a non issue if you have the +2 powered hits got it
The bones are there man but it's not great atm
Oh yeah? Why don't you Pox sum Battle Sisters?
I fucking wish
Sell it still is, psword is significantly still weaker even when you've min maxed it now compared to on release
Weapons shouldn't have mandatory blessings/perks to be good imo. PS without powercycler is very mid
the payday devs with any morals left went off to make gtfo
Disagree, kinda
Psword can be done without the meta
It was pretty funny tho 
Maybe Mk3 with rampage and slaughter would decent for hoards but that'd be it
But it is an end gameesque weapon
well yeah, but I am really trying to get it, ya know? but at the same time, how?
@devout comet It use to be way more than 2, I don't recall how many. It was also basically infinite cleave or close as one can get to it, and the damage was much higher even on the cleaves with the PC strikes.
Its like us sitting down to build a rashad
Which one is that ?
Which without blessings or the right perks is c tier
Work on ur melee fundamentals
Yeah no thats just being aware of your surroundings
And for the love of god dont hide in the back
I still think it would go fine if they made a game that made people care about other weapons / less ass crafting system
ok
which at the time wasnt the case
We just had a whole conversation last night about On Overwatch
I mean
A grey psword
Infinite cleave
Remember. We also had Darcy back then throwing gasoline on the fire
The agreement was whatever dev came up with it is a doodoo head and the best bet for Overwatch is to practice higher difficulties first.
with 1 energized post-nerf?
On release psword was mega broke
This changes sound reasonable tbh, only buff it needs is more dodge reach tbh
I used it 🥹
Get high toughness for ranged attacks and run voice of command for panic toughness refill. Also maybe get Stam and block efficiency
You could literally animation cancel your charge before a swing
Psword is making me giggle like a 5 year old.

you can still block cancel it
Uh
For no health damge, run yourself the toughness buffs, all toughness trinkets and a Zealot with toughness prayer, 2 of each even on Auric you can keep perma TOughness overcharge and shouldn't take health damage if you don't be stupid. You can facetank 1 pox burster with overcharge and toughness damage red.
Not really...
Just get a friend
I literally helped my friend get it back when pox walkers hit you through toughnss
The fuck is a friend?
Its extra possible to do it without a friend now
Solo auric maelstrom que only bby
Say, you probably need to just stack ad much toughness as you can
And grab voc
Its so easy now
the 100% accuracy was more of arse time without doing the disconnect glitch. I have to use a lawbringer to get it myself.
That's easy enough too
another humorous thing was that the illisi also had this
I did it with a revolver
That isss a little more tech than charging it directly after a swing into another swing to be faiir
And when psword gave you automatically 3 swings
Must be some kind of new curio
I think the hardest one however is to make it through Maelstrom Auric mission with everyone using the starting weapons with 0 people going down. (The 2 greys each class starts with).
Fun fact: even with old busted psword. Somehow we still had vets that said vet melee was weak

The what
Starting greys
Uh
because those vets wanted to be zealots at the same time, lol
Nobody's doing that unless they're making content
No actually.
U could be a zealot as vet back then
That's not a penance is it ?
They just didnt know how to survive in melee
ah, okay
No it's not
Like they spammed powered lights on thr Mk 3
It definitely was a skissue
I figured
Would run away from hordes until they backed themselves into a corner
anyone like sliding with a folded shovel to 1shot trappers? just hope you get them first lol
Classic
And then died
The corner is a powersword vet's worst friend
Hiddeen Pennace: Called Rager gone Streaming. (instead of screaming)
Anyone complete the 100 missions with no one going down? Been stuck at 92 for awhile
"I can do it!"
Sits in net
"Fuck"
I heard someone mention S h o v e l
Not yet
But not far off
Yep.
Yet they used to gravitate to them like crazy
"Oh a horde! Lemme run into a corner"
what does more boss damage? folded shovels or power swords?
Hard to say
It's not like cod zombies
@crude fiber I would have to check probably I have over 1k hours
Mk6 could be better ?
Either way, Shovel is better.
Too stubborn to play on lower difficult for it tbh. I'll get it when i get it lol
Your mom's better
You stop talking about my wife like that
a casual 73 melee elites
Wait what
The fuck is a mom
The female version of a dar
Yeah I completed it some time ago.
Mann
bro, I am trying. this is bs
dar
definitely power sword, shovel animation takes a long time compared to what you get out of power sword
however shovel is more in-and-out which works well with many bosses
thats true, i still like shovels for the crowd control
Kid made fun of dar man soon regrets his decision
(He got ran over by a fucking ford)
like plogyrn where you constantly have to dodge, or BON where you won't get many opportuniites to strike it in melee safely
so it's a tossup honestly
Darman's worst enemy in those skits would be an actual racist.
True
like the optimal situation is a plogyrn that isn't using stomp, and is aggroed onto a teammate who knows how to keep it in place
there power sword will definitely do way more damage
but if you're taking plogyrn aggro you constantly have to dodge out
Darman never handled a Southern racist before, they just don't care who you are.
and during those dodges you can do the shovel animations with no loss
relative to other weapons
The optimal situation is a daemonhost slurping an ally
Plague Ogryn is ez, just hit it with a shovel.
And get your battle buddies with shovels to beat him too
Actually a lot of the mini bosses melt under just getting melee jumped.
Darman when he actually encounters a Sundown town

Basically I use the rhythm of swap to pickaxe, wait till it attacks, hit, dodge n block repeat
Taking turns
But tell that to the fucking ogryn whom instead of helping the zel who was about to lose their grip come and mindlessly swing the plogryn so I had to go and then I pan back to him just crouch shooting the ogryn while it's charging and he just falls off to his death
Yes I am still bitter about that ogryn how can you suck so much ass on ogryn to the point where trash mobs are knocking you down and draining all your 3 wounds to where you fucking DIE
I think I'm becoming semi prejudiced to abhumans again
Ogryn being unable to solo a Plague Ogryn is... A new level of brain dead.
Just charge the Pogryn anytime it tries to move and beat it to death.
He just wandered around on the final part of foundrie and just didn't even come to where we were and almost died again
I would've put in chat "just leave him atp" if he died
Hell he had a latrine shovel and I had to kill more crushers with my tiny mk 3
It's like he didn't know the concept of heavies and balancing melee and ranged
I demand this Ogryn be excommunicato from all Shovel activities.
He shames all of our spades
u did not stop
Just tried it on auric, bruh, i didn't know it made THAT much difference, never taking it off again
The irony of the general hate for abhumans for me is how for me it's head cannon that 99% of the Imperium of mankind is severely autistic
this turned out quite bad, what do i do
Depends on build 17% are far more rare now than they use to be.
i mean, 17% toughness with a 4% toughness perk comes down to the same as a 16% toughness with 5% perk. Its fine
rare to get 17% ones at all
I am so excited to see how Hadron fucks this harder than Leman Russ in my dreams
this is the other one i got
I dont even often recognise or remember which is which (Ogryn or Chaos thing)
well, ah my god this is the whole
Not everyone has watched some vids or guides how to deal with monstrosities or went 1on1 em as usually team is around
The imperium makes exceptions™️
Every Guardsmen love Ogryns
'Ate Psykers
Both still abhooman
aww yeh only the one good blessing
I've never watched a vid in my life.
The penance about rushing Plague Ogryn taught me though its effective strategy, and ive used it since
damn that looks nice
I just bum rushed it mindlessly and saw it was a penace. I just figured "Hey I'm big why wouldn't I be able to bully this ugly mf" and I was correct.
My Ogryn still in his early 20s so i guess im allowed to not know yet anything about it
what are we thinkin fellas, swap out 10% elites or 25% infested?
infested
Shameful, really.
I like those random penances the best, just do your thing and suddenly you get rewarded clothes
to be fair there are a lot of skinny green men
u can check the breakpoint if you like
I can also throw screenshots in here hoping someone else internalized them
but the only real consideration is 'does this 1 shot a poxwalker right now'
u can just go in meatgrinder and whack 1
Keep the toughness, swap the pitié res for gunner and you can keep revive speed if you want
is 3% toughness alot?
what are you trying to do

max my toughness
It's fine
i like maxed items
1% does not really matter
its 2% since the other one is also 16% + 5%
it does nothing
and idk if i should go health or also tougness on 3rd curio
if you're gonna get sad over %1 toughness this game will give you depression
columnus mk5 and now im building power sword since i got power cycler 4
Is that Deadshot?
dump duck and dive dump demo team
get redirect fire and focused fire
if you are doing a toughness build nothing will touch you anyway
demo team my beloved 
Though without grenade tinkerer don't think grenade stacking is worth it anyway so ye
demo team is fun but focus fire keystones are too insane to pass up
redirect fire 
12% perma dmg for you and everyone on your team + whatever stacks you put on stuff you mark is insane
my first auric maelstrom scab only win and it was tooth and nail every second
Its a deadshot columnus
smite by the looks of it, looks fine
Target down wont be enough stam
ive no idea i was way too focused lmao
that will cause me to get rid of onslaught
I'll go inside your mind to find out myself
Btw u dont need +25% ammo or + elite dmg on columnus IAG
I find onslaught is too many points invested in my support builds, but its up to you
Also if ur trying to max ur toughness take out fot blood
duck and dive is a meme on shout builds you facetank the whole wave
Its for stam regen
target down prints so much stam for you
Its a columnus
Target down is nowhere near enough
whats duck and dive going to do?
Spawn ducks
30% regen every second is a lot
without supression immunity are you really going to be fighting ranged dudes
Yes
Its an IAG
Not a iLas
with any autogun are those ranged dudes really gonna be fighting me? 💪
this is what i use but im also a agri1 user
IAGs can put out damage through moderate suppression
any know what perks/bless should have on this gun
Swap groaner for maniac
Bam done
Blessings do NOT matter on plasma
At all
Can you explain why?
They all suck and dont really help with getting breakpoints
really wish I couldn't see other people's equipment sometimes
i run 9 stam 3xstam regen 3xsprint eff so its why i feel target down is enough regen
its Hereticus Deletus out of the box
The only one i personally find remotely useful is gloryhunter
Ur also using an agri
Not a columnus
So like
I run a 16 stam columnus and I can tell u, even with good burst control, target down isnt enough
i think you will struggle to keep stam up with columnus with any build
Nah
DnD can
If u have good burst control
Because DnD gives u back so much stamina
yea but if you are going to be farming stam from ranged enemies why not take determined
oh yea another reason for focus mark superiority
suppression is the most aids mechanic in the game to deal with
it gives stamina and toughness back
Because i can hit shots without determined?
IAGs barely get suppressed
Its the aim punch thats the issue
'you don't need dmg' kek
And if u dont get hit u dont get aim punched
Columnus is already 4k dps
i feel like my shots go everywhere
U dont need more
Thats not suppression
when a reaper is magdumping me from across the hivecity
i tried to like columnus, but too hard to snipe with it when needed
Thats aim punch
suppression is a directional thing
Reaper shots have high stagger
someone else is next to me and its supressing
usually all I have to do is slide to the next piece of cover and suppression is gone
i wanna jump down into a firing reaper one day and have him blast me back straight upwards
weapon swap is a persistent thing you gotta deal with though
Also IAGs are on the low side of suppression pains tbh
but honestly if columnus had better stability/distance it would be broken OP
its amazing
Col has good distance with burst control
U can reliably bean flamers at 40m
im just really mad voice of cringe is in the middle of the tree and infiltrate is on the right side
i still prefer agri iag
they should swap sides
mostly cuz I have this lol
Agri deffo can reach 60m no issue
But i dont think anything past 40 is that common
Other than snipers
imagine not having throwing knives for targets over 40m away
Deadshot also helps col with long range so much
The recoil is also easier to control after shooting for a bit so you can long range with it if you don't mind dumping some ammo
It also has very little recoil on thr first 5 shots
Which is lethal vs most specials
If u hit said first 5 shots
i wonder how they will nerf it
Its shots 6 to 15 that are pain to control
Well they need to give half the vets in the game a brain atm
What do you mean I dont need dumdum + elite and boss damage nodes + 25% unyielding and exec stance?
Cos i feel like columnus is too hard for half the vets atm
XD
Which is a hilarious jokr
are we counting console "people" in this or what
Not even
i do know most vets are plasma wheelchairs with poopysword but
We are counting people that rely on KB+M aim assist
columnus is really straight forward
I wonder if they are delaying this and hellgun cos of belt ammo physics
i need it
Cos columnus doesnt have aim assist
what gun does?
I'm sure that's total why lol, definitely just not gonna add them in
aim assist is only for console isnt it
Nope
i wouldnt know i dont use plasma or revolver
Revolver and Plasma both assist ur aim by shooting fucking logs
U can miss by half a head on volver and its still a headshot
I've noticed some generous hits with the revolver I suppose lol
God-Emperor guides my bullets 
Guess what weapons are the S tier meta atm
Good old hanzo arrowa
Columnus is S tier, but it aint meta for a reason
Heretic seeking rounds
I rolled fire frenzy and deathspitter on my columnus, which is better to keep? I will replace one of them with Dumdum
some guns get it even on pc
Man..
thats crazy
I just want a normal beard
Said guns are also the meta atm
But instead it's either big ass kratos beard or barely stubble.
Coincidence? I think not :P
I'd say keep fire frenzy, damage is better then power for IAG imo so you stagger less and get more headshots
Unless it let's you cleave at full stacks of deathspitter but I doubt it
It'd maybe cleave a groaner if anything
What does power even do? 
Gives damage, cleave and stagger I believe
Is there a reason no one uses the Gaia guns?
Death Spitter also stacks
Which..
It doesn't say so but
IN THEORY DS is better
which graia theres 2? and both are pgud
Because you could argue power is better
i run graia braced sometimes if i want to go brrrrrt
Either. I never see them in game or on builds here
braced got its damage buffed so its only slightly less than the columnus, but when you brace it it gets much higher fire rate
I have a god roll agri iag, maybe I’ll go for braced
6 months
Graia braced *
the IAG is a nice middleground rifle, not as much DPS as the columnus and not as much single bullet damage as the argi, but it is a lot more flexible
Braced version is amazing
I never use the iag version anymore
yeah for sure give graia braced a go, its super fun now
got almost 1000 bullets with the +25% ammo talent
What’s best blessings for one? IIRC braced blessings are meh
you don't need any blessings for it, so its up to you really. Speedloader is quite nice with graia imo, and deathspitter/fire frenzy is just extra damage
So fire frenzy is more close damage, while deathspitter is less damage, but it's not just for close and also gives cleave and stagger 
this only applies to elite gunners right
and the ogryn reapers ye
Yes, not shooters
Oh wait this is vet chat
do i really need 2 of those on my curios
it helps
I mean
Running even 1
depends if you get shot up a lot
Reduces damage from gunners by 20%
shit ton of other stuff can help, its just 2 enemy types
It's up to you, if you can dodge them then I guess you don't need them
And those enemy types you'll see the most
gunners are one of the more damaging enemies at higher levels for sure
More than some specials
Yeah
I mean you can say the same for other damage res
Sniper res only helps you against 1 enemy type
All these damage res are only for 1 or 2 enemy types
Like flamer and Rox flamer
Wait WHY ARE those two seperate
Minus the Shrek piss stream the trix flamer spews
Uh
Tox flamer gives corruption

Which is weird
That damage res should be both but
more rng I guess
if i unlock the slot for perk changes does it cost stuff each time iwanna change
nonstatwise XII is probably better, right? bcs light for horde and special+heavy for single targets
yeah
Uh, I mean it looks like you're not even max level so I'd take everything that just gives you any more stats and junk
XII is just bettah in thiiis case
i am, fresh .)
didnt had time to roll smthing bcs i am not sure which gun still to use .) doing marksman highlight penances
play the highest difficulty you can handle without beeing detrimental to the team and farm
You prooobably don't wanna roll until you're max level fr

quickplay will always give most rewards right
Yes
Because your weapons aren't gonna be their max potential and you're just using mats that you'll be upgrading anyways
yesnt theoretocally math wise yes
but i usually pick maps which i know every little spot of to pick the map clean
also maps i know where the team has less chances to fuck up
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/887131268800725082/1198681798805295144/image.png?ex=65bfca6b&is=65ad556b&hm=a685f518615e372353386cbb2ac537f26426d11eb8a6f85d8b014aca10711ce5&
Can anyone advise me what to do with this? I'm not too savvy on laspistols
I think maybe replace RA and unarmoured (?)
Dum dum for RA and you'll need to check how your breakpoints work out
Flak is a good guess as always
Thanks boss
its difficult to get the optimal dps out of braced on veteran though
compared to iag
tho
I guess it depends
some people cant seem to handle recoil/aiming
who cares about optimal
its not even needed, just play the funny
I mean braced iags are fine
just saying dps math doesnt really work in practice
I use braced guns for the funy
I mean they're good
is the mkix headhunter just not good rn?
Which one is that 
The burst one?
green one
Hh
this
like how iags were ''good'' before their buffs
but I like agri braced
graia isnt a good gun but it gets 1000 rounds on veteran which is just silly
its okish currently
it does?
i just run it in a meme build
Its doodoo
Could give us toughness but it's okie
oh u thought i meant columnus IAG, i meant columnus braced
oh yea, gets a bit confusing
ciag is a silly good gun rn wouldn't be suprised if they reeled it back a bit
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9b170ea7-2088-4e0b-8c24-5f2324cd679d/britishtide this is it lol
Exe is bad
No
The buff it gives is not enough in comparison to the power/utility of VoC or Infiltrate
no its not a ''VoC is too good'' problem
first ever damnation run
VOC and infil
i don't even know if this makes me play worse or not
its worse than scriers gaze, its modifiers are either silly tax nodes or counteractive
VoC is too strong, infil in many ways is better for personal use
Okay now that's crazy
You only take 2
For exe
Which yeag is expensive
and only one for VoC
For no toughness regen
I take no nodes for infil
Yeah and that's wildly regarded as
oh cool
Why VOC is op
I take 2
grab bm from it
that is absolutely stupid
yes thats what i meant
No? But it's not the worst possible thing is what I'm saying it compliments MF
Voc and Infil is just good alone
another

the mental gymnastic this chat goes over to not admit exec is garbo tier
and it has nothing to do with how good other abilities are
lmao
Which isnop
And infil
Which in many ways as good or not better than voc
Which is fair
iv'e only ever found it good with 1a
We have no other comparison
and the best part is when a team has multiple exec users so they grief each other
or someone takes the teammate highlight node so I can grief them out of kills
Problem is a lot of general talents throughout the tree can give you a similar benefit to exe stance
lmaooo
and mfs here be like
Yeah it is
Urgh maybe I am coping abit
I wish
Its damage isn't even worth it
Voc and infil give so much more utility and you can easily make up for damage by many talents including keystone buffs
I can't play without exe stance because I can't see shit
I mean infil itself just gives damages
Or well
In plush's case just give you
Invis
Exe has the issue that uh, it's only range with no defensive element
Maybe if it gave you a stagger too it might be hotter
Low threat, easy revives, objective completion, damage buff, toughness reset
But sure as it stands because it's strictly range with no defensive utility it is weeakerrr
Plush said took 0 extra nodes
So only toughness refill and invis
Which frankly
could use a taxin
it makes you invisible so guaranteed revives/objectives, baseline still refills your toughness fully
Not to mention weapons have been buffed a lot so they all preform well without exe
it still also gives you movement speed aswell
Whereas before you needed exe to push certain weapons to being useful
none of its baseline functions tied to a node
Yes I know I play it
The point is invis is excellent utility that can be used for multiple functions, whereas the extra damage from exe is somewhat meaningless since it can easily be made up for in other talents
Yes
I didn't say that it was bad
😌
Exe could stand to use like
A defensive portion
I'd honestly rather they overhaul exe stance entirely
but why would I want defensive utility to my offensive ranged ability
you took all the identity out of it, at this point just rework it completely
I mean
I never liked the constant need to require my ult in order for the gun to be useful
I'd still rather they kept a range option
I don't want
3 fucking ults that just let you play
Whatever
Which infil and VOC honestly let you do
how about giving me an ult that feels good to use lmao
There's many ways to imagine a similar ranged focused ult
Give it some defensive utility on par with the other
you're the one suggesting giving it a defensive portion
make up your mind
if you give it defensive portion you're making it the same as the other two
??
So I'm saying
Keep it a ranged ult
And also give it some utility
because it literally does nothing when you're in melee, or if you have your gun out and enemies come into melee
It doesn't even refill your toughness
Like all the other ults
You gotta build toughness back
With MF
Or other talents
While using MF
Personally, I'd like if they make exe stance a huge single shot damage buff
Exe shot, or something
I can tell we talking about exec stance, I can't stand that ability tbh
scrier gaze doesnt give toughness either, you're not supposed to be as durable as a melee playstyle
It doesnt even make sense given its not a spam ability its something you're supposed to keep up
Like the rush I get from pressing my ability button and seeing about 30 targets pop up, then making them all disappear within 1 kantrael clip is what keeps me playing this game lmao
thats where the problem comes from though
scrier doesnt care if you weapon swap or if someone yoinked your kill
I dont see an issue baking in defensive utilities, the bigger issue is the offensive utility isn't potent enough to invest points
You can get similar toughness regen + DR from other talents
there is no ''issue'' rather it just doesn't fix the problem
Yes I agree to this
you could slap like %100 toughness replenish on it and like
yea thats nice
but its not gonna make me like the ability
Scrier doesn't only apply to melee damage right?
it dooooes
its just damage afaik
damage and crit chance
there is like very little reason not to spam scrier gaze
I guess if you use staffs you might want to be careful not to blow yourself up
but with guns or melee its easy free stats
man, both revolvers make me sad. one because i keep hitting heads i shouldn't, and one because i can shoot a sniper 5 times and literally not hit once
well it shoots projectiles the size of ogryns
Snap shooting Vs precision right there
thats also what stops me from using those guns
revolvers and plasma
I don't feel satisfied with a gun that aims for itself
but then the other one is literally "we made a revolver, but decided to make it innacurate and no penetration"
ye
the quick draw mgraw, aggripinna i think?
yeah thats the braced one
maybe there's a secret, but not exagerating, against mid to long raged stuff
i put my crosshair on a sniper head standing still, clicked 5 times, and every shot missed
thats just how it is with braced weapons on veteran
also no penetration, so can't snipe specials through hoards
just incredibly underwhelming
It has speedloader and double the ammo
so somethings gotta give
would probably feel a lot better if it was like a 6 or 8 shot revolver
i think if they just made it pinpoint accurate and gave it teammate penetration, that would be enough
or that yeah, a bullet or two extra maybe
teammate pen is like
I'm 50/50 on that
god forbid if I'm playing exec stance
I cant stand guns without pen
on VoC or infil I dont care
which is %99 of my playtime
it's a shame, because i really like the "quickdraw precision weapon" style of gameplay, but both revolvers make me feel gross for different reasons
3 ogryn game as vetran, just shooting backs all day
I think its cool but I admit I have barely touched it
mostly cos I got frustrated with hadron bricking my revolvers
Hadron has sent 40 of my 370+ DC swords to the scrapyard
i think the strongest build in the game right now is antax+revolver weapon specialist (sorry, meant rashad)
sheesh
which, you just plow through the game with that
antax
tac axe?
nah more like rashad CA
if you can get a good roll
which is the difficult part
with agile engagement up, a bodyshot revolver crit 1shots a rager
After trying all 3 tho I greatly prefer mk7 moveset over mk4
and every kill gives you a garunteed crit
Idk I just cant stand tac axe attack pattern
combat axe are good though
I like combat axes
very nutty with weapon spec
i would put ciag and revolver at same tier, but weapon specialist pushes revolver through the roof, and leaves ciag in the dust exepct for boss dps
hmm
get a weapon spec proc
Disagree
and spam all 5 shots
or at least
spam the trigger
its not a precision weapon
its more of a aim center mass kinda weapon
really obscenely strong, but the lack of pen is what holds it back imo
i mean for shooting through targets
yeah but pen is a broken stat
like, fundamentally, nothing can compete with "delete anything anywhere on the map instantly"
CIAG is uniquely not as bad because it kills everything so fast u will still kill the trapper
Especially if u have deathspitter which allows u to penetrate a little
through sheer dps
had times where I got through like 4-5 chaff and kill trapper anyways
New volver is pinpoint accurate though
it's the difference between "kill it in 0.2 seconds" and "kill it instantly"
what's the trick?
dont think its quite as tight as zarona for long range shots
That’s only first shot tho right?
Im not sure if it has the same aim assist as zarona
me neither, didnt bother testing
Mhm
Zarona has aim assist
it has a cone to begin with
it doesn't have any aim assist
Which doesnt help.
the new revolver?
uh
In fact its quite massive
new one Idk
Zarona has bullet magnetism
Not really though
The old one
old one has uh.. ''fat bullets''
because CIAG is very horde efficient
Slightly different thing from aim assist but achieves more or less the same goal
yeah, sorry, was reffering to a previous conversation
Also trappers are slightly taller than most hordes
i don't like old revolver, cause i feel like i'm cheating w/ bullet magnetism
Im not sure if the new one has aim assist
and i don't like new revolver, which doesn't have bullet magnetism, because it is innacurate
like, if you have better information on this, hit me
New revolver has issues
New revolver 0 cleave is a bummer
but i think the bullets don't go where your crosshair is 100% of the time
which is weird
Because it doesn't clear ragers fast...
We should get a talent or smth that just says “+cleave on all ranged attacks”
so don't like either revolver, cause one is overly generous, and one is overly punishing
with regards to aim
its not broken OP like the old one 
I think it just needs
a little bit of pen
just enough to punch through friendlies
i would take accuracy over pen
that would be a nice touch
but both would be nice
Punch through friendly is like agripinaa1 / helbore level cleave
It needs to penetrate most soft targets
I mean its not meant to be accurate is the thing
