Imagine if they atleast give us new content in the shop rotation tomorrow

this is the progressive thinking the balance team needs

Shocktrooper now is a +100% to ammo consumption on crit (only for Recon)

#

I wouldn't complain

#

if we got the Relic of Cadia set.

#

which is a color swap of an existing set

soft blade
#

just make it navy blue and i’ll buy it

untold mulch
#

I am still waiting for either
A) Scion set is gonna be sold in parts 1400 aquilas each
B) Next will be the full set, but now in another color

#

Do your bets lads

#

Just gona throw this out there. If you don't know, the key to success of the Auric Damnation Hab Dreyko mission is the infiltrator Veteran.

#

Infiltrator Vet is my way to go

#

and is so good to just, F

Do objective in peace

This is the way

This is a palette swap

Gib it to me f you don't want it

if we got it tomorrow

#

and it'd be new-ish

#

wait do we put thrust on that thing or uncanny?

#

im assuming deci4 is cool to keep

unborn perch
untold mulch
serene sage
#

it's for boss killing

untold mulch
#

Then I guess thats that

serene sage
#

so ill keep thrust then

#

alright

usable

#

I guess

unborn perch

Totally fine

hardy pollen
#

Because i wanna make a kasrkin

If that’s what you meant by palette swap

#

Damn

#

Well i hope it’s either steel legion or more guardsman stuff

unreal bone
#

I hope it's the green set I just posted

#

This set was leaked

#

12 months ago

#

actually more

hardy pollen
#

Yeah I hope so too because it’s perfect for a cadian Kasrkin or making a full scion set

unfathomably based

And the devs lie to you about the chances by like 20% sooo

So I was told there was a free cosmetic

So I guess not

#

Ngl if they added a hellgun as a ability for the vet they could possibly add a Plague marine as a boss

is right there

Use it obese megalodon

I wouldn't mind if they at least

bothered to bundle some recolors together

but breaking sets down to literally single pieces is like

#

what can I say they know how to milk whales very well

untold mulch
#

1400 x4 pieces

Head, chest, legs, backpack

#

Get that sweet money

frank ether
#

its like the worst possible case

untold mulch
#

I am bracing for it

frank ether
#

price raise check
no recolors bundled check
set separated and sold over bazillion week period check

untold mulch
#

Fatshark cosmetic team deserve no good faith whatsover

hardy pollen
#

Especially the Pox walker ones

frank ether
#

I've played a lot of different type of games with predatory cosmetic shops that are like designed to milk whales

#

but they usually have one thing in common

#

if you're spending mullas at least you're feeling happy about your purchase

#

The Moebian 6th made it, put canisters on the train, crashed it.
0 involvement from CSM

hardy pollen
#

Still though it could get the attention of the death guard

#

Especially since the cultists are summoning Nurgle deamons left and right

hard briar
#

How? There's a Warp storm blocking communications going in and out

#

We had to use that big antenna to try and send an encrypted report because of this

#

And apparently only a few people know how to use such constructs

hardy pollen
#

Dude you know who the deathguard are right?

hard briar
#

Yea the dudes who recently took a big L

hardy pollen
#

By the big G yeah

hard briar
#

And got Nurgle's Garden set on fire

#

Did that fight occur anywhere near the Moebian Sector?

hardy pollen
#

I don’t think so no

#

But i still don’t think it would be far fetched that one or two deathguard would notice

#

Especially since our characters took out a snot slug, plague ogryn or whatever the other was called

hard briar
#

So we have a storm that stops comms and makes travel difficult in and out of the system.
The Death gaurd are not in system or in Sector since this is clearly occurring around the time that Guillimam awakes and starts mustering for the next Crusade

#

Via voicelines alone

terse idol
hard briar
#

Especially one they can't get to

hardy pollen
#

The storm wouldn’t really effect the comms of chaos marines i don’t think. But then again I’m not too far into reading about the chaos marine factions

hardy pollen
#

I still think it would be cool to see a plague marine though in game

#

But makes sense why it wouldn’t be possible

hard briar
#

If pyskers can't see thru the Warpstorm. What makes you think that Chaos aligned pyskers can see thru the Warp storm?

hardy pollen
hardy pollen
hard briar
#

But that's not how pyskers work and that's how both factions communicate and travel around the warp.

hardy pollen
#

I’m reading about the necrons atm

hard briar
#

Like..Chaos ships have Gellar fields

#

Because everything in the Warp isn't aligned to your chosen diety. Even chaos undivided have ships with Gellar fields because the things in the warp will permanently fuck you up or kill you.

#

The Warp is so much more than the 4 Chaos Gods and there is so much more than them in it.

junior needle

#

"Hey strange nightmare creatures that have nothing to do with any of the Chaos Dieties I worship, can you let me pass and not enact whatever strange ideal you mirror in the realspace and project in this Warp as a perverse extreme?"

#

🥺

hardy pollen
#

I’m genuinely confused if you’re actually trying to help me understand the warp more or are just trying to be rude

serene sage
#

but not like a being rude joke

#

just a little sarcasm

#

the warp is a funky place is the bottom line

hard briar
#

The Deaths gaurd would have to have had contact with the Moebians to even care to help them.

#

And it seems what occurred is the Moebians returned to Atoma and were contacted by the Nurgle Cult in the underhive

#

Judging by how there's that cutscene of Wolfer bowing to the Dreg shotgunner

#

Tho then again Dreg Shotgunners were fucking space Marines back on release and maybe that's why he bent the knee

fluid solstice
#

Yo question

#

I'm experiencing audio bugs

hard briar
#

Endure

junior needle
#

You and many others

fluid solstice
#

Is it a known bug in game, or is it something else

junior needle
#

You'd have to tell us the nature of the bugs

fluid solstice
hard briar
#

If it's the plasma audio bug, this has been a known issue for about a month or more.
Fatshark has not addressed it

fluid solstice
#

It could be the game, or it could be my headphones, (potentially fixable,) or my network (I'm just fucked)

hardy pollen
#

For speakers set it to stereo

fluid solstice
#

rah

hardy pollen
#

I had the audio issue before

#

It’s because it gets confused of what device you’re using

fluid solstice
#

I'll givr it a shot

hardy pollen
fluid solstice
#

anyone wanna squad up?

hardy pollen
#

How long will you be on?

#

Because I’ll be home within a hour or two

fluid solstice
#

not long I expect. I have some stuff to do

hardy pollen
#

Ah alright

fluid solstice
#

If I'm still on I'll lyk tho

hardy pollen
#

Sounds good

Chipi Chipi Chipi chapa chapa chapa

stoic jetty
#

What do you guys think is more useful on a lasgun, flak or maniac?

frank ether
#

yes

stoic jetty
#

i can only reroll one and i can't decide 😐

lilac eagle
#

Maniac for sure

#

My lasguns tend to 1 shot flak armoured units if I headshot, about 99% of the time, and I don't run flak damage

#

Meanwhile maniac is a bit more spotty

stoic jetty
#

ok, that makes sense.

#

Appreciate it!

frank ether
#

you can change the rerolled slot as many times as you want

#

I personally run both

stoic jetty
#

yeah, true, but i'm poor

steep pier
#

Just realized krak grenades are sticky

frank ether
#

you get like enough plasteel to reroll it 3 times in one game

stoic jetty
#

sure, but not to re-craft an entire 370 lasgun lol

#

i get where you're coming from tho

umbral scaffold
frank ether
#

I cant answer generic perk question because lasgun covers many guns

steep pier
#

It sticks to reapers bulwarks and crushers

frank ether
#

but generally you'd want both of them

#

alternatively you could also do with something like flak+elite

#

or crit chance would also be acceptable if crafting rng didnt favor you

#

if you're running deadshot stamina is also acceptable bad roll perk

mighty sail
#

What should I do with this? Pretend I'm an idiot

stoic jetty
#

Could you elaborate on stamina as a weapon perk? I've seen some guides suggesting that

tiny summit
#

That could be helpful or troll-y

frank ether
#

I dont recommend it

#

I'm just saying

#

if you had to work with it

#

its not bad

#

because lasguns are crit weapons

stoic jetty
#

gotcha, I run deadly accurate and headhunter right now on my lasgun

#

yea

frank ether
#

almost without an exception all of the lasguns scale very well with crit chance and have great synergies

#

so deadshot, the veteran talent

#

allows you to turn stamina into ranged crit chance and sway reduction as you ADS

#

downside is you need to feed it stamina

tiny summit
#

Fuck deadshot

#

Stupid gun asking for my stamina

#

It's mine

frank ether
#

small price to pay

iron marten
#

just regain it back using the talent that gives back 30% stamina when you dodge ranged attacks (I forgot what it's called)

#

also focus target

tiny summit
#

No. It's my stamina

frank ether
#

thats value also scales with your max stamina

#

%30 of 4 bars is nothing

iron marten
tiny summit
#

I will continue to be ignorant of deadshot like how I'm ignorant of resource characters in fighting games

lilac eagle
#

Tfw you've ran the same deadshot ranged damage build since release

neat stratus
#

I now have a class identity crisis

#

There is nothing we can do

tiny summit
#

Have all these new options with the skill trees. Still mostly playing the default abilities for all the classes

neat stratus
#

Zealot - Best drip
Psyker - Favorite form of flashiness
Veteran - I love ranged weapons
Ogryn - I love unga bunga rock throw

lilac eagle
#

Tag is fun on a conceptual level

slow spade
tiny summit
#

Yet the most brain dead player behavior promoting shit

lilac eagle
#

But I like the steady dopamine drip that is headshotting 20+ enemies in a row because they're all lit up like christmas trees

tiny summit
#

Exe makes me feel good and I find it fun

slow spade
#

play Pskyer and use only assail for that 100% headshot rate UwU

tiny summit
#

Though I want Exe to do more.

neat stratus
#

I like obliterating everything before my team can so I make sure not to take the version of it that marks enemies for other players whatthefuck_heresy

lilac eagle
#

I go purge Pskyer every time

slow spade
#

I miss when Exe did +50% damage

#

instead of +25% weakspot and +25% damage

lilac eagle
#

It makes weakspot damage builds even nastier tho

neat stratus
#

In all honesty I think the current version is a bit better

slow spade
#

funny weakspot damage moment

lilac eagle
#

You set yourself up at the end of a hallway as a plague ogryn spawns at the other end? Activate exe's and just fucking melt that dude

neat stratus
#

It rewards you for aiming much more than old exe, a veteran that needs nothing but anti-aim weapons just isn't what fatshark was going for with exe stance

tiny summit
#

I think my issue is that Exe costs 2 extra points to feel like a complete skill. And 5s base duration imo is still ass and too short

lilac eagle
#

I've never had an issue with duration

slow spade
#

5 sec -> 5 minute

#

ez fix

neat stratus
lilac eagle
#

Especially when its between 5 seconds and infinite

slow spade
#

to be fair, it does mark enemies

#

which your teammates never do

lilac eagle
#

I've routinely had it where I've had exe's come off cooldown before my first one has even finished

neat stratus
#

Now I think 5s is just barely too short, it should be more like 7 at base and you regain like 3-4 seconds for killing elites

tiny summit
#

I don't have an issue with the duration on its own. I have an issue because I can either use it for 30s to over a minute against a room and then against a monstronsity it's like "woo...I guess"

lilac eagle
#

Yeeeeeh that is a drawback

neat stratus
#

I have an issue in that you either get nothing out of the ability or it literally becomes a passive boost depending on your difficulty level

slow spade
#

clearly it needs to be a permanent effect

lilac eagle
#

Imagine if it gave you extra time just for hitting weakspots

tiny summit
#

While VoC and Infil provide the same value

lilac eagle
#

Rather than kills

neat stratus
tiny summit
#

I would accept a longer base duration and each kill gives X secs over full refresh

lilac eagle
#

That was exactly my thinking

neat stratus
#

It would prevent the ability from going on forever, but it would also allow you not to need that ability as an absolute for it to be good in the first place

tiny summit
#

Funny idea. Exe removing distance restrictions on talents and blessings while active

neat stratus
#

Maybe they could have an alternate skill for exe (locking out the other) that instead of refreshing the entire thing (or partially) it extends the duration to 10s and grants stronger buffs

#

You basically choose between consistency for a lot of specials or raw "DELETE THIS" energy for tanks

#

Stealth is also a bit of an iffy skill for me, it provides benefits I'm sure but it seems like it's just really situational

tiny summit
#

It is kinda a godsend skill for some maps and objectives

neat stratus
#

Now when it does work, it DOES WORK and can save an entire team, but its just kind of a less effective executioner stance if you don't need to pursue objectives that require standing still

lilac eagle
#

Exe stance is pretty worthless on some of the newer maps

#

Or at least certain sections

neat stratus
#

This one time a vet saved all 3 of us using stealth, never doubted the skill for that since

lilac eagle
#

Like that little segment where you have to unlock one of the three doors a couple times in arow

tiny summit
#

Newest Carnival map. When you start the ambush gauntlet

neat stratus
terse idol
#

Its free damage

#

And an agro swap

#

And toughness refill

neat stratus
#

Thats true, free damage is always great

lilac eagle
#

For some reason melee combat just doesn't feel satisfying to me on vet

neat stratus
#

And you can save yourself, as well as your team with it

neat stratus
lilac eagle
#

Right??

neat stratus
#

Maybe its the contrast between the guns and the melee weapons

terse idol
#

Vet isn't built entirely for melee, it's a mixed medium

lilac eagle
#

Tho I think thats factual

terse idol
#

Weapon spec is like the most unique version that we got tbh

lilac eagle
#

Ogyrn has base 150% impact right?

tiny summit
#

You do have to go a certain way for melee. It works.

neat stratus
#

I mean the guns are so strong that you feel weaker using the melee tbf

lilac eagle
#

And Zealot can easily get extra impact

neat stratus
tiny summit
#

Mostly

terse idol
#

😌

lilac eagle
#

Psword is good

#

It doesn't suffer from lack of impact because it just slices through shit

#

There is no resistance

neat stratus
#

I do use a Psword and I love it, but I also find that it kind of struggles to get a charge every second hit

tiny summit
#

2 temperamental weapons that want specific things to feel good

neat stratus
#

I have power cycler 3 because Im too unlucky to get 4 so thats probably alleviated by 3 swings

tiny summit
#

Rashad needing min 70s to be godly and BM. PS needing PC4 to be godly.

lilac eagle
#

Mfw still haven't found power cycler 1

soft blade
#

rip

#

yeah rashad and psword are mega picky

neat stratus
#

Anyways I actually kinda want to try out a melee stealth vet, I need to see what this plays like since I've literally never tried that before

lilac eagle
#

Tho honestly I got so used to thunder hammer gameplay that I can work without pcycler

tiny summit
#

Mfw I was using a PS w/o PC. Got used to it. Got PC4 on the first PS6 I upgraded to farm for it. Proceeds to barely use it

neat stratus
#

Id imagine you still be using a revolver since that thing hits like a truck with a jet engine

That 21% looks pretty nice

tiny summit
#

Have posted 4 Darktide runs on YouTube. My views ain't shit but all the views are for the Exe Helbore one

jaunty sphinx
#

Stamina regen is really good

tiny summit
#

21% health, yea. Roll it. Pull the lever. No balls

neat stratus
#

Especially with deadshot now that I realize

hollow ibex
soft blade
#

muy bien in that case lol

neat stratus
#

Stamina regen is basically ideal when your entire build revolves around having stamina

soft blade
#

it was already good before

neat stratus
hollow ibex
#

Even if the perk was bad. Which it isn’t. Still worth the buy

neat stratus
#

Anyways lol, aight thats 1 new trinket

jaunty sphinx
#

Yup!

tiny summit
#

Yea I buy max curios when they appear

jaunty sphinx
#

Congrats homie

neat stratus

Sig- I mean god emperor bless my current weapon shop rolls

hollow ibex
#

Max toughness and hp ones are pretty rare

neat stratus
#

They're all dog

Took me a while to get mine

neat stratus
tiny summit
#

Pisses me off that exp is still allowed in the drop tables at lvl 30

neat stratus
#

Here's the quickdraw I've been using

#

Gonna upgrade it asap

jaunty sphinx
#

Oh fuck yes

neat stratus
#

Every time I pull that thing out to blast a heretic it always one shots every single time 70% of the time

#

The other 30% is when its an ogryn or boss

idle carbon
#

if that's for a WS melee vet, I do highly suggest getting the point blank talent instead of surgical
since IIRC you get basically a guaranteed crit if you have 3 melee stacks

#

my revolver has 31% crit by itself, and point blank is another 20%, and WS at 3 stacks will double that
if I'm reading how WS affects ranged crits anyway

Does Always Prepared reload a revolver shot?

idle carbon
#

it rounds down, but always reloads one shot yes

neat stratus
#

Ah ok

#

I can imagine this build will be crazy

frank ether
#

Also having to choose between gunner/ogryn highlight is dumb

tiny summit

#

hmm yes I will give vet a 5 sec damage boost active ability which can only snowball on auric high intensity

frank ether
placid portal
#

Yee

frank ether
#

you get value out of it no matter what

#

you can't possibly fuck it up

placid portal
#

You lose Exe if you think of pressing q

#

which is why I don't think

frank ether
#

the best part is

#

Its supposed to be super good on helbores and all that

#

except because gunner highlight is locked

#

I always lose it when a crusher shows up

placid portal
#

Helbores only get benefit on the first 5 shots at most

frank ether
#

Its like

placid portal
#

So only use it to quick swap

frank ether
#

the game doesnt even give me the option to keep it up

placid portal
#

Which is the good part of exe

frank ether
#

its either gunner reset or ogryn reset not both

placid portal
#

Dumb

frank ether
#

fucking

#

dumb

#

like exec needs to buffing

#

stat wise

#

what it offers is perfectly fine

#

it just needs to stop being autistic

placid portal
#

If ogryns get highlighted they shoulda brought back the dmg bonus from old vet ogryn/monster dmg buff as well

#

Now I can finally 1 shot mk3 Lucius on crushers

frank ether
#

Either tax me on target choice or tax me on active cooldown upkeep not both

#

I'm not even bargaining for weapon swaps at this point

tiny summit
placid portal
#

I want the reload on ability activation back

tiny summit
#

Fatshark making psykers better ranged vets

placid portal
#

really useful on autoguns and boltguns

#

Now they gave it to the ogryn

tiny summit
#

Exe not proccing weapon specialist is a huge oversight. I don't see why you'd want to run that atm but still

placid portal
#

or agile engagement

#

which is also a bruh moment

frank ether
#

nah exec stance is like

frank ether
#

paying the price of

frank ether
#

1 year of OP vet

tiny summit
placid portal
#

Though since I use mk3 maybe I should use ogryn highlight

#

Not that I should

#

Lucius MK3 is the definition of an Elephant gun

#

Kinda bops

tiny summit
#

Gib max Longshot at all ranges, kill zone with no restrictions, more dmg and more duration. Only then will I be somewhat pleased fatshark.

frank ether

a VoC nerf would probably send reddit into anarchy

maybe new weapons

but either way its not gonna like

its not gonna make me play exec

99% of posts there already are just “does anyone else think vet bad now?!????”

Also the max wound ogryns feel like they are multiplying

I feel like a bit of a hypocrite you know

I should own my words

there were like few instances of ppl saying we hyping up helbore to psyop people or something

Like vape nade

Helbore need a psyop?

soft blade
#

if your a redditor who can’t keep his hands still due to caffeine related tremors then probably

#

i mean they’d need a psyop to believe that vet as a class is good

frank ether

because for some reason they all think vet is bad

placid portal

Infiltrate Lucius, kinda meh

frank ether
#

honestly if you've found that infiltrate helbore build on yt

#

I can understand thinking its bad

placid portal
#

good news, you can shoot without worrying about aggro, but burden your teammates

frank ether

Idk someone made an infiltrate larping build with helbore

soft blade
placid portal
#

nah I tried Infiltrate Helbore

#

Kinda meh

soft blade
#

the absolute state of youtube builds

frank ether
#

you shoot like once in every 45 seconds and then pop infil to tactically reposition

placid portal
#

can't act accordingly to problems, exe stance is prob better

frank ether
#

there seems to be like a general consensus

#

with some people

#

that teammates are supposed to babysit you

#

while you shoot your sniper gun

soft blade
#

oh god yeah

frank ether
#

I believe some of these people may even be testers but I can't prove it

placid portal
#

Shout is good since you can animation cancel draw animation but lose highlight while Exe stance has potential to do more damage at cost of survivalbility

frank ether
#

I just have a strong suspicion from design ques of exec and mf

#

they both promote that tunnel vision never use your melee xXmilsimmurricansniper420Xx brainrot

tiny summit
#

Infiltrate helbore is like...purely just having it for repositioning and objectives. It's a non-factor to most of the play.

I run it sometimes. But its less running it as an actual skill to keep in rotation like VoC and Exe

placid portal
#

But if you want to repo and obj, shout does that too

frank ether
#

right side of the tree offers very little value to helbore

placid portal
#

also point heavy to go infiltrate

soft blade
#

yeah

tiny summit
placid portal
#

well more like 3 or 4 points

frank ether
#

yup thats the main issue

#

you lose a TON of points

#

for nothing

tiny summit
#

I at most only put 1 or 2 points into infil.

placid portal
#

the Grenade streamlining was good but I wish it was the case for active abilities as well

frank ether
#

you might aswell put those infil points into some toughness gen and go exec

#

genuinely safer

tiny summit
#

No

placid portal
#

and exhil is just good

frank ether
#

cause you get mad toughness returns if you take all the nodes

tiny summit

You do

exhil + kil confirm

Exe with ET and CK pretty neat

You really do just play and they get unlocked.

frank ether
#

having the panic button is nice but I can't really do much with it outside of dumping aggro on my teammates that are already probably useless to begin with

#

VoC would let me line up shots on stunned targets

#

like helbore voc? chefs kiss

#

stun chaos spawn, shoot its face

placid portal
#

I hate smite, I line up head and they stagger and I can't line up the shot anymore

Mercy killer needs bleed skills

frank ether

someone in general chat was saying

it needs larger aoe

placid portal
#

If you chose rending I'd say that Uncanny + Crit bleed would do more bang for buck

#

but I am addicted to backstab crit bleed

#

Finesse affects weakpoint and critical damage

#

Honestly I am not experienced of the knife in terms of how to maximize

crude ermine
#

Yes

#

Best pair imo

#

Since the knife has a very high finesse so you'll be increasing it and the weakspot damage even more

placid portal
soft blade
#

looks gud thumbsup_ogryn

#

uhhh idrk tbh

#

it kind of depends on the build

#

the one you have rn is good just all around

but you can do some funny stuff with bleed perks and mercy killer

sharp ember
#

flak maniac is a safe pick

placid portal
#

Or backstabbing is fun

soft blade
#

that too

sharp ember
#

wouldn't be mad with unarmored either

placid portal

Though you could make up unarmored chaff killing with bleed

#

Forgot if FS fixed charge rate reducing damage

charge rate is fixed now

i have one that dump stats charge rate and it ain't too shabby

kind of the opposite really

In fact it prob hurts your team in shitty situations

I'm pretty sure too, I just haven't seen one

i’m sure they do but they’re so good at stealth i’ve never seen one

Stealth needs the user to do something pretty big

neat stratus

But yeah I mostly just use it to refresh my toughness, and that damage boost lets me clear out groups of elites

hollow ibex

like going behind popping off specials and elites

Just got a ruthless backstab 4 knife drop

placid portal

A smart way to infiltrate imo is to flank and kill and return to groub

neat stratus
#

I never actually use the full duration of the stealth, it's just good for having your team die instead of you as you kill the elites for them

neat stratus
#

Also good for a free revive in a really tense situation

ay man

Trust me, I somehow have a skill coherency aura; when I'm alive, almost nobody gets downed, but the second I get downed the entire team forgets how to play the game

This is true

So if I bring stealth and simply don't die, while babysitting the team, nobody will die
