With passion
had enough fails
If only PC wasn't mandatory 🫃🏿
so i had enough time to try your idea on a poxwalker
i wouldnt call it mandatory
but it is ridiculous
problem is, the bleed isnt enough to kill cleaved poxwalkers
unless you maybe run an anti-poxwalker perk
I mean is there a particular blessing combo that is so good it outclasses having PC in either slot
now i wish these were maxed
u talking to me about the toughness regen or what
About PC on PS I think
Oh, thought it would, rip. Time for a +25 infested knife 
yea dont bother testing regen
its not that great, its not happening as much as you think, and there's really just strictly better choices in the end
Pretty sure regen is only good on Og or Zeal with very specific builds. And even then I wouldn't call it optimal, it just... is a way to make it work
And is a mildly funny build
looks like theres 2 groups of people
one who begs me to use regen other who tell me its meh
What if you have the bleed on hit node? So I'd be 9 stacks, or is it not even close with 8 stacks? Super nit picky but I'm curious
if you need regen for downtime catch a breath is like 100-300% better depending on how big your toughness bar is
i asked about curio setup like 5 times now
i mean u saw
someone always defends regen
yea cause some people dont know better
Toughness regen? You sure they weren't talking about stam regen?
which is mean to say but still
I do see now, I didn't look before. Oh well
i also picked up every single melee dmg node
Time for lacerate + flesh tear + serrated blade + infested knife
With or without +infested?
Red weapons gonna change the knife meta 
just gotta wait for red knives
lul
oh
actually
u can still do it with 80 dmg knives
but you still need serrated
it kills on the 2nd to last tick
so still takes a while though
That 80 in dam, first target, and finesse though right? Good luck getting one of those lol
yes
you also HAVE to head a headshot on the cleave
or else it lives with 8 hp
which might be harder to do in practice than reality
easy enough to hit the first guy with headshot but the swing is diagonal
so you have to angle weirdly to make sure it hits hte 2nd with a headshot too
no cleave headshot
oh
the bleed does pretty safely kill the other type of poxwalker (unarmored type) regardless of headshot
t ho
so yeah
infested+ knife 
Fireteam meta has returned for bleed knife
Was complimented today
actually
if u keep doing your build
just use heavies
killed 1 safely bleed to death other 2
lul
with the horizontal heavy
I think im going to swap to uncanny now
Fleshtearer is locked in
So uncanny + flesh tear
honestly
if u use heavies
its actually
kinda ok
for poxwalkers i mean
since u usually heavy and back off anyway
haymaker flesh tearer
so it kills 3-4 in one swing
and then you backdash
and then dash back in to swing again after the others bleed out
still
i'd always run uncanny on knife
personally
These discussions have me questioning what I even do in horde situations
Like
I dont even remember what I normally do lol
Need2practice
its all instinct really
practiced muscle memory
i just want to STAB
well, personally either way, for mk6 , i think you should heavy
esp with bleed
unironically
im actually
i heavy once in a while
slightly impressed
there's so many decisions that are being made so fast its impossible to put them in like a flow chart
but i dont know how often i mix it in
by bleed heavies on poxwalkers
like its still not good compared to a lot of other weapons but i think its probably passable
with heavies i use against bruisers and mixed hordes
the knife has good armor pen so i def make sure i get the most out of that
cause
it kills in 3-4 bleed ticks
with lights, even if you actually run serrated and hit head, its like the full 8 ticks
that is way too long
Bleed shines the most against bosses tbh
but with heavy you can actually probably concievably kite and wait for the 3-4 ticks
nah, mercy killer is #1 on bosses
followed by precog
i tried that way earlier
the biggest challenge with bosses is keeping consistent damage going while they're flailing about
when someone was telling me lacerate flesh was good for bosses
How does mercy killer work again remind me
if they are bleeding, 60%+ dmg
ah okay
so you run serrated blade
so like i said
bleed shines against bosses
there is technically bleed
its just not doing most of the work
and you dont run bleed blessings
still uncanny + mercy
but yeah ig
if you count that as bleed build
ig
its just not really using the dot for the dmg
ur heavies do this much each swing (uncanny isnt even stacked here)
and with how fast the knife attacks
the dot is there just to proc the buff basically
pr good damag
Toughness regen is meh
Stamina regen is based
Cause having enough gives us stamina regen as fast as psyker
Historically vet has the lowest stam regen
Theoretically, having really high toughness and really high toughness regen is like an overshield and worth more than high health, but toughness works kinda wonky
I have tried it with the high toughness regen, high ability regen, + to toughness with the shout ultimate
but all it takes is a few poxbursters or corruptions to completely fuck you if you just use those curios and have no wounds
the regen only affects passive coherency no?
Stuff like that works better for Ogryn because their weapons replenish toughness fast
It affects in coherencey toughness regen
Weakspot damage, which is not actually 60% damage
As far as ivd been told
lol really, i thought it affected the abilities
wait
its weakspot damage only?
damn
oh damn
it is
no reading comprehension here lul
or rather i just dont use mercy killer
hate the serrated tax
gave me the fastest kill when i was smacking around a plogryn though
precog pretty close though
yes curio regen only affects coherency regen. and coherency regen is a flat value, not %, and varies from 2.5/3.75/5
it does also diminish the delay before regen begins
but the big issue is that coherency regen turns off completely if enemies are 3m from you and when you take damage
and also those flat values are pretty bad
hmm yeah that explains why trying to be a toughness tanky vet is dumb
Nope toughness regen doesn't do anything to abilities as far as I know
I mean it is easy
Just build max toughness curios
not toughness regen, ability regen
does ability regen not help VoC cooldown faster?
my thought process was faster VoC, higher toughmess and higher toughness regen = very tough vet
brutal momentum's description is wrong
when you get a weakspot kill, you get to maintain your first target target to the next target, up to 4 targets
https://streamable.com/dufgeg
it does by a whole 2-3 seconds
wtf embed
but x 2 or x 3 ?
so 6-9 seconds if you use 2 or 3 ?
no
oh
12% CDR on 30s is 3.6s
yeah
but tbh
i'd only use the CDR on overwatch infiltrate builds
less chance of wasting the time reduction
id still use it
from specialist kills
cause 2 charge
and the cd is really long too
so u get a whole 7 seconds off
voc uptime is way high and making it higher is a good idea
interesting
let me ask you something, how come when a game is 3-4 vets, it feels kinda fucked really fast?
well the question is, is it worth the opportunity cost of losing what is effectively an additional health/toughness curio
CK is all the cdr you need
looks like i'm not the worst with the plasma but can't say i'm enjoying it more than my columnus
most of the time its 'hope i don't have to reload when being overrun by 10 maulers'
i like weapon specialist plasma more than focus target tbh
You can sprint while reloading plasma
that passive reload is nice and its naturally a melee heavy weapon
cool bipod huh
what makes VoC strong is the 15s of toughness overheal access
the longer you can keep that 15s buff up the better
and its strong enough in my opinion that having it back up 3.6s sooner is absolutely worth it
its a level of extra survivability thats hard to quantify and its for four players
its not always actually giving you it 3.6 seconds faster though
if you ever proc tac awareness
?
no it literally always reduces it by 3.6 lmao
i get what you mean
let me put it this way
it will literally always shave 3.6s
if your cd counts down 25 seconds
the cdr person has 2 seconds left on voc
the no cdr person has 5 seconds
you're talking a niche scenario that would otherwise only happen in a very specific window
both people proc tac awareness
both are back up
ya
i mean
i dont know how much it actually happens in practice tbh
i dont track it
in all other cases its an improvement
i dont think you can call it niche or not without really analyzing a game tbh
and im way too lazy to record full games
and analyze over it
idk
there are a lot of fucking specialists in auric mael lol
sometimes you can spam back to back before the buff even wears off so
i dont really know how niche it is
all i know is its not a problem for overwatch infil
since ur usually sitting on 1 charge anyways
so that's the only build i usually think about running it on
While we are on this topic how good is overwatch infil?
i think the way to frame it is that unless you're already killing five specials in 3.6s then the CDR will give you a benefit
and yes that shit does happen, but no, it's not that often
i use it on bayonet
and that's about the only build i can afford to spend that many points grabbing infil so
lol
i like it though
no, not necessarily
like i said, you could have waited 25 seconds naturally
and then a specialist pops up and you kill it ,and the cdr technically did nothing
i dont disagree that it sounds like a niche scenario at least
but idk
like i said, there are a lot of specialists in auric and they show up all the time
it really sounds like something u'd have to analyze a full game for
but that sounds sweaty as fug
so i just run w/e i want
ok boys, do i rip pc4 from this:
only if you got something better
like mobility +50
to try to fix this:
no
that one is bricked
at least compared to the othe rone
you have 3 things you need to fix
yea unarmoured isnt the best perk
I mean the
See the issue being 3 seconds you shave off in the span of 60 seconds in auric damnation is noothing
And anytime you're not using VOC, the cdr is doing nothing
Compared to like, toughness or stam regen or
Maybe there's an argument to be had about pre emptively using VOC which I do
But I'm not gonna notice the cooldown being off 3 seconds faster saving me because CK will just
Shave the cooldown in more important scenarios than nothing
i think it would be valid if it consistently shaved off 3 seconds
Even with the 3.6 shave it will still need two special kills two activate it again before it disappears
Yeah like 3 seconds off per every 10 seconds
but ig you could say
9 seconds off total, isn't bad
if a specialist is equally likely to spawn in the timeframe of 30 seconds you wait for the cd of voc
there's a 12% chance that they spawn in that window of 3.6 seconds that you shaved off and "waste" it because you reduce more of the cd than you have left to wait
still that doesnt really answer whether or not its a realistic concern
its about the 15s window for overheal
Are we talking about spamming voc then?
if the first 15 secconds of the cooldown dont matter, that only makes it look worse for the CDR
if i do instantly regen my shout im not shouting until that buff runs out or i gotta to push back stuff
because then it raises the probability that it does nothing
I just do it during the over heal because it adds on
if the only thing we're concerned about is 15-27th second of the cooldown
since the first 15 seconds are irrelevant if we're thinking only about the buff uptime
idk like i said this is impossible to determine without a lot of games to analyze lmao
just run it if you like it
and dont if you dont believe in it
im sticking to running it on overwatch infil only
man how do i say this
overheal is fucking busted
not the amount, but the mechanic
it is, but that doesnt mean any amount of cdr is useful
so having the ability to gain overheal passively for everyone for 15s is immense
imagine if 3x only shaved off half a second
and the closer you can overlap moments of 15s the better
would you still say its a good subperk
if it only shaved off 0.5 secconds
like there's obv a line somewhere where it is useful and where it is not
but idk where
so much better that even 3.6 is significant
because just having a single point of toughness overheal
prevents so much shit from hurting you
Why is this axe so damn reliable?
well like i said, even if the mechanic is strong
it doesnt mean any cdr value is always going to be useful
taxes are slept on
Probaly because they hate being taxed
Tac axes I feel need better dmg still
At least make the heavy atks be easier to reach bruiser 1 shot
i think their attack patterns look fucking goofy
wtf is that underhand upward swing
on the mk4
heavies
it do be obstructive
omg i should make a katana taxe
Im gonna run riposte and flesh tearer, and change infested to carapace. Which of these blessings do I upgrade to 4? bleed or riposte? 2,5% crit chance aint nothing, right?
Honestly that is pretty damn solid
probably flesh upgrade
1 stack of bleed makes a fairly big difference
not that i'd run those blessings
but if you insist, flesh is prob better
Woah
Just keep it
Replace flak with Carapace
taxe is best on zealot
the extra melee damage nodes really add up
duelist puts it over the top
do recommend
no
I dont think so right? Excluding crits
zealot can
when modders cope with custom weaponry
when you kill little dudes with this swing they cartwheel backwards its great
wouldnt use brutal momentum on one though
What mod is this? And is It safe to use on my main account 
i have all or nothing so i can push spam on zealot
weapon customization mod
and yes
if you install mods fatshark dispatches a killteam to your location so be careful
cope with what
If you fight them off, you are free to go though
I have the one that let's you change appearances, is there a different version or do I just need to update it?
For The Drip is separate
Weapon appearance*
Oh 
When I was asking about plasma stuff most people agreed on having higher res is better
I think you normally want to split your dump stat between ammo and thermal res
some said its better to be lower since ur dmg builds up faster
I need a beer after a job well done.
No, charge rate is the dump stat
Could you explain what you mean?
when ur plasma overheats u do more dmg
lower thermal res means it overheats faster
0.22 hipfire heat generation on that one, while my high thermal has 0.19
Charge rate imo is a dump stat
So i am assuming its like 22% vs 19%
Not that drastic, gonna try using this if it rolls last blessing well
yeah i didn't say you want low thermal res
Alright alriight
i just said thats how it works
i don't have low thermal res either, i doubt the dmg increase is that big
But charge rate is a dimp stat because you don't charge
yea
Meh
I never heard that before, are the actual damage numbers higher at high temp?
Is it how it works though? There are a lot of rumors going on in this game.
Well sure
To the Psykhanium!
Because of gets hot
Secret mission some brother to help me ? 👉🥺👈
multiple people told me so, no idea, but it was always 2 sides, either low thermal res for dmg buildup which means ur always overheated or high thermal res
oh yeah because of the blessing
I'd rather spam an extra shot or 2 out then hope for a crit
twins kinda
you can with agile engagement up
and headtaker stacks
and a good roll
I thought you said because IT gets hot
so it'd deal more damage
and basically all the vet tree melee buffs
So I just did 3315 without overheat and 3326 at like 92% or so.
so it actually doesn't deal more dmg without the blessing when it overheats?
So if there is a base increase, it's likely neglegible.
and flak and unarmored perks
basically when the stars align you can 1 tap bruisers with taxe lights
What perk besides Flak for Plasma?
.001% damage increase 
Cara/Maniac/Unyielding?
Might need something to get you to the dreg gunner 1 shot
Either unarmored (lol) or +elite
But you one-shot gunners even without flak.
So Flak&Maniac to oneshot those maniacs?
Scab but ive seen people struggle to 1 hit dreg gunners
Oh nevermind, I misunderstood
Actually, I take that back, it might be the 8% weakspot that puts me over the edge. Don't have another plasma to test it tho.
i finally did it - thanks everyone who helped
It's the extended mod
Idk if my msg sent
Adds more options and u can change basically anything
This is my current one and the only thing it doesn't one-shot with charged shots with my build is maulers.
Charging is a dps and ammo loss atm
you don't want gloryhunter?
Only niche for it is increased cleave ig if you want to shoot through 7 or more crushers in a line
Uncharged only goes through 6 last I check
Id rather blaze away, +40% power

Gloryhunter seems nice for survivability though
it is
There's probably better options than Gloryhunter, but at the end of the day you gotta take what Hadron gives.
basically never died since ive been using it
gets hot + blaze away/gloryhunter is the go to
i wanna oneshot dogs
how
without charge
helbore is the only plasma gun i need 
Yeah, if the gun gets hot
It doesnt do more damage
Fatshark should just delete all dmg blessings
Technically gets hot only increases crit chance
So sometimes you don't get more damage
ah
I think Helbore is my least played vet gun. I want to like it, but I can't handle it as well as other guns.
Blaze it increases damage based on amount of shots taken
btw i need like 50dmg to oneshot gunners, what can i do
+is it possible to oneshot dogs without charge?
Do you have +elites
i do
Or Unarmoured
Uh
Take longshot
Do you have longshot
Do you want to take fire team
Focus target
Maybe
And longshot
Focus target cheating 😭
Well
But focus target works
Longshot, Kill Zone, Precision Strikes
Test with 1 stack
If you spam it
i have it
Then you have the BP at range
I always test with 1 stack cause it's guaranteed
only one i don't have is kill zone which seems useless
😌
Or redirect fire from focus
For unarmoured
Only in a scuffle, and there you're more likely to melee anyway.
Kill Zone is really nice when you go into a new area to pick off the elites and specials before entering the fray.
Only on successive shots
If ur goal is a one-shot it's kinda
Unreliable I'd think
Ig
I try to make guns like this reliable the moment I pull it out
Just my preference though
wish i could put a sniper scope on the plasma
Blaze away won't help you get the one shot BP yeah
Either unarmoured
Elite and Longshot with distance
Killzone which I personally don't like
Or fire team
unreliable
better to utilize a few layers of damage
such as MF/FT + longshot
to make the one-shot consistent
Is there actually any difference between mk 2 vs mk 3 helbore?
unarmored is probably the worst imo
because you're wasting an entire perk on 1 specific enemy type in the game
mk 2 is the fast firing one, lower damage per shot. mk3 is the slow firing one with the big damage, but also a worse bayonnet
Damn ok I got a surgical onslaught both Iv mk 2 so rip
Might just ditch it for mk 3 seeing as I can’t oneshot crushers
don't sleep on the mk 2, still phenomenal dps and pierces carapace
So I should prolly keep mine seeing as it’s got good rolls
100%
protip though, always keep a weapon if it has good rolls. you never know how it'll be changed in the future
this
All recon users out there
I mean if they made plasma good..
but recon was good and they nerfed it
I have 3 Recons saved 
Someone in the design team has a hateboner with Recon
Is a constant, "No, you CAN'T DO THAT"
Ok
Trying to make a Killteam for fun with a friend
Is this homie hand carrying a lesser multilas 
Navis Las-volley
Must. Adquire
weaponized scuba diver

Navis trooper sooo, pretty much the intent, I think they are the troops for Voidship fighting
As a Las enjoyer is my duty to understand all variations of las weaponry in the setting 🗿
ooh I like that
10/10 game, these people never stuck together lmao
I do too
Y’know, also makes me think.
Imperial Navy drip when?
71 kill combo
but goddamn that Las-Volley is giving me the eyes
nice
still lost
and these people played much longer than me
lvl 112, 63 60
how do u go this long without learning that u need to stick togehter lol
i love when kids talk shit on this game and then die not even 5 mins later lmao
Try to go for frenzied killer (3) which asks for u to kill 120 enemies in 30s
nade probably
somehow
Highest I’ve ever gotten was 117 in 30s
damn so close
Feel like I’d have to rely on teammates not killing as much stuff to get it
Like, math wise it’s very tough to start with
Assuming you’re running a combat axe which kills 4 in one swing
120 in 30s means 4 every second
If the game actually spawns enough poxers close to u and nobody else is killing most of them I think it’s doable
Zealot flamer or flame nades could make that a lot easier
i think that could happen with a horde clear spec devil claw
in a DENSE horde
If it’s perfect spec rampage + SS then I think it could?
swing high, hit heads, avoid armor
But so far the best horde killer is BM combat axe in my experience
but it would need to be like
love me shout, revolver, power sword build
a horde that you're in for that entire 30s
That still depends like if u get a ton of Dreg bruiser spawns in a horde then DC just does way less dmg with cleave
right im not talking bruisers
thats carapace armor
which is why i said avoid armor
it would need to be a crisp
clean
poxwalker horde
If it’s just poxers in like damnation hi int with no teammates around u to kill horde, I think it’s doable
I have no idea how I got to 117
MAYBE could be easier if you actually used the pox walker perk lmao
probably naded a horde you were chopping
Do you only play vet? Could have happened on another character
that tends to jump those kills up
I definitely did not do that on another character
My ogryn doesn’t kill dense hordes as fast
I don’t run combat axe on zealot (I use crusher or heavy sword)
I played flame Psyker for a while but that doesn’t rly kill as fast cuz soulblaze takes time to build
just don't be unlucky lmao
But think about all the penances you DID get
These are just the ones that got narrowly filtered
What is a corruptor?
For something in the eye
Is that the fucking objective thing?
yes, ones with the giant yellow eye
Could have been heavy sword zealot, that's real good hoard clear
Like the thing that pops out after the tendrils were killed?
yes
An abomination of an idea that asks 3 entire people to actually play objectives
They want you to waste a box on that?
Whoever designed these achievements have shit for brain
Yes
Achievements should occur organically from playing the game WELL
FROM PLAYING IT GOOD
1 time yeah, not the end of the world. Plus isn't it able to be done in any difficulty?
More like generally
Not to defend their penance system cause some of them definitely suck
Whoever designed them needs to reconsider what they call "fun"
Designing an achievement that actively trolls the rest of the team
Three whole ass people?
I mostly used heavy atks which still come out slower than combat axe light spam
That is hilarious
Thats a lot of people
3 whole grain people
That's like 2 more than yourself
More or less
Which is basically infinite
Yall know you can shoot the other spots to break them right? I've almost never seen anyone do that in game
Hopefully you won't have a slow ranged weapon though
Is that the faster charge at low heat?
Less
Low tier blessing
You know we like to complain right?
I've noticed 
And now you have complained about us complaining
Complaining helps build agency on my issues
Welcome to the club
Is Vet chat
Gotta keep accurate with any force, complain about everything
If you have an echo chamber
Most are valid complaints but they're all easily solvable
Even better
Beep boop bop you humans and your silly emotions craving vindications for common inconsequentialities. Wanting to relate to each other's struggles. I'll be overe here in the corner being the life at the party.
Correct. My existence is heretical
Oh God your echo chambering berating me for giving solutions
Me at the slightest inconvenience
We already know the solutions you dingus.we just don't like them
Lmao
REAL
"But your my most competent quickplayer"
God I wish
Even today I'm running into pubbies in their own little isolated world outplaying me
Because while I'm on the discord, they're studying the blade
And stare at the hot assassins
I stopped playing period kek
got Halo 2 that is at 2 bucks and was coop funny
I love that studying the knife meme
Come play Chaos Gate
KNIFE
If they release a Damascus-patterned knife skin I would buy it
Even though I’m not very good with knife
A knife for every occasion, dinners, weddings, inlaws
It makes little sense to me why they focus so much on character skins
When weapon skins are so much easier to make
We need more weapon skins
Anything knife related I'll buy
And you actually see the damn thing
Give me custom model plasma and helbore
Look at CS2 for example
Seriously
Don't say that outloud
Give me custom model DC sword
All the mods will come in and be like OKAY
I wonder if this is a Game Workshop thing
And then next update is just skij spam
I don't think so. I feel like they have very little to do with it given how much goofy ass freedom total war got
That game just made shit up
Non stop
Then again we already have literal death row prisoners cosplaying as rogue traders, various guard regiments so I don't see why not
Not like a rainbow glow plasma would break the lore lol
Dude we literally have killed more BoN than the entire grey knights chapter
If GW actually cared abt lore consistency BoN just wouldn’t be a boss in this game
now to segue as to why cat ears are fine
Well you see
Chaos Spawns as well. And we eat those for breakfast.
Cat ears are defined into the felinids, whom something something something something something something something something something something something, something something something something
Which is why cat ears could work
so true
I dont see my character in missions unless I'm interacting with another player. I'm staring at my weapons the whole game. Give me earnable weapon skins
I guess there could be varying power levels for Chaos Spawns?
Chaos spawns get blown into kingdom come in like 8 seconds lol
Just play space marine 2 and pretend your reject was chosen
Ez
mkiv or mkxiiig chainsword right now?
iv
I much prefer CS4
CS13g is really goofy
I just use a regular toothbrush
What would u change abt it
Oh you meant for killing heretics
a lot
grey knights probably kill more loyalists than traitors 
mostly just the combos
lol same I feel like it’s lacking in a lot of things
Considering how we chew through various enemies, I would put us at Primarch level 
The moveset is so cursed
but a lot of them
Chaos SMs aren't shit
also the h1 is just slow af for no reason
I want power claws ngl
especially when h2 is so snappy
Ehh they retconned a lot of it at least.
If they dropped power claws I'd put down the knife
GKs are a lot less friendly killy now
I mean
If they are Plague Marines there is a significant amount of shit
we're about to un-kill the emperor of mankind next week you'll see
With the Rift in the galaxy, trying to keep Chaos 100% hidden is non-viable
CS13g is just so weird
@tall torrentwhat is weird about the moveset?
And whose fault is that?
it doesnt flow
DAMN CADIANS
Are power gauntlets a thing? Like thunder hammer brass knuckles?

only light spam feels good
Damn right
Light for horde
Heavy Rev for carapace/elite killing

It has no easy access to a heavy sweep so you have to run wrath to proc rampage with light attacks
It doesn’t have as good single target moveset as CS4 (which is L1 + Push ATK + L4 + L1)
It somehow has less damage per tick in a Rev attack (the ticks before the final big dmg hit)
And it has no cohesive horde clear moveset that only comprises of vanguard atks
Also it has the same finesse multi as CS4 which means your weakpoint & crit dmg bonuses are very very mid
but it has all the pieces to be amazing
80% finesse caps out at 1.1x
which is very sad
It needs just better moveset
Rn it’s almost as cursed as Mk4 tac axe
Real shame too because CS13g model looks really cool
thats the blue one right
Yea blue one with the funny looking tip at the end
yea its just bizarre
yeah looks cool, blows ass
I have no idea what CS13g is supposed to be good at because CS4 outperforms it in like every metric except light spam with wrath + rampage
but once I got used to it
What about the obscures or whatever force sword with its uppercut swing 
Maybe thats why I feel is good 
Because I run exactly that way
But it still doesn’t make it “great” yk cuz a proper DC sword will still beat it in horde cleave
Counter point
Why tf would I use a normal ass sword

I get it
parry the planet
The other counterpoint is that CS4 can get away without wrath
Because you have easy access to a sweep heavy which procs rampage
bloodletter and shred?
Even on scab bruisers
I like bloodletter + rampage on CS4
Already spent 2 days trying to get Shred for my Zealot
any kind of shred
Got one, was fun
Don't want to play anymore between the absolute silence and the absolute pain in the ass that is trying to find new weapons
Bloodletter with CS4 gives a few nice breakpoints on top of decent ish boss dps
CS4 with bloodletter can one Rev heavy mauler
It has like fast strikedown heavies but if I wanted that playstyle I'd just get chaxe 12 with thrust
that one revs on heavies, chsword doesnt
I'm just generally confused around chswords but new one is especially bizarre
U could also just play chainaxe12 with slaughterer + headtaker which somehow has more or less the same horde performance as CS13g
the fast revs of chaxes come very useful against elites and specials
since you can actually use them in a pinch without having to rev the weapon
I wish the damage ramped
instead of being bad bad bad amazing
I very rarely use special attack on chaxe aswell
If they swap CS13g L1 with H3 so all light atks are sweeps, then change the 3 heavy atks to chain rip enemies then it could have some use
the self stun on rev attacks will never feel good
with the rev + charge heavy + self stun
its too long of a time lost
That’s why I use bloodletter on CS4 now for more flexibility
they just need to make revs instant
I've just been using knife instead with shredders thrown in there to ramp up bleeds faster
and then indefinitely extend rev activation and change rev it up so i dont need to fucking press the button again every 2 seconds
i like moving 20% faster, used it for a long time on eviscerator
I get the idea behind it, just think the baseline weapon is not good enough to justify QoL blessings
especially one that niche
cause most enemies you want to rev already run up to you
you'll only want to move faster to reach gunners and the like
maybe attack speed boost after landing a revved attack instead of movement speed would be good
how about both 
and why would I want to rev for a gunner or shotgunner
I think CS4 is a pretty balanced weapon in that it does its function well:
- it kills hordes well enough (not as good as DC but better than chainaxe)
- it has good direct dmg on most enemies (better than DC but not as good as chainaxe)
- it doesn’t need melee investment to do well
its fine but its rev is also questionable besides being easy to understand and use
Bloodletter makes rev way better
Probably should have been baseline
quite a fair few blessings should have been a baseline feature
man i miss when bloodletter applied a morbillion stacks on the eviscerator
Evicerators at least have comprehensible combos
I dont put 1/10th the effort using evisc versus chsword
it oneshot bruisers like that
I have no idea what CS13g combo is supposed to be
What moveset do you use for hordes?
That’s the funniest thing because it actually doesn’t do as much dmg as CS4 rev heavy in most applications because the dmg in the rev ticks is lower
why 
If u don’t have cleave blessings I’d suggest H1 + H2 + L3 + H2 repeat
Hmm aight I had just been spamming heavies lol
The H2 + L3 in the middle are near horizontal perfect sweeps
And those 2 come out pretty fast
pretty much what I do
H2 can vary between diagonal and horizontal based on what atk chains into it
Yeah I noticed the weird difference in the sawing, I wonder if it's an oversight
Oh... ok.
Yeah that looks very good for hordes
U have 3 atks that can proc rampage, they just don’t come out as fast as light spam
I'll prob fuck it up in the middle of bad situations though 
is that mark 4?
Yea
1L1H right?
No
H1 + H2 + L3 + H2
That’s if u don’t have cleave blessings and only have rampage
I only can go by subjective feeling, but I feel with wrath and rampage I can jump into the middle of a horde with CS13g and come out unscathed
Perhaps skill isue with CS4
CS4 has L4 overhead which is goofier with wrath
However if I wanted a solid horde clear weapon I just don’t want overheads at all and CS13g still has L1 overhead
L1 overhead is annoying, but is very quick to shift to L2
What they could have done alternatively
Swap H3 with H1
Have H1 (replaced by H3) + L2 + L3 + L3 combo for horde clear
So u have sweeps all the time
Then when u press rev it uses H2 as default
Like how mk3 shovel has H2 strikedown but when folded it only uses H2, not H1
just give it the poggers devil claw moveset 
thats cool, meanwhile eviscerator player spamming lights non stop lmao
Mk15 evicerator is just braindead moveset
Perfect for the avg zealot player
It is so simple it makes combat axes look complex
cos you make up for any weakness it has with zealot talent set
built in slaughterer, gapcloser spam
Wait what built-in slaughterer
Huh?
I'm so proud, I stopped a petty thievery today 
let me look it up
headtaker you're thinking of
Pretty sure that one is not +power
They have built-in headtaker
still

yeah i know, i'm mad its shit when it has bm 4
Grimoire corruption applies to whole team? Not just the person who picks it up?
Also how is it possible that I take dmg to hp while I still have toughness
all team gets corrupt
yes
You don't get hp damage from melee if you have max toughness (unless Crusher out damages it)
You will get both toughness and hp damage from melee if your toughness is not maxed (kinda like armour in doom)
grims should be a special mission, and grab 16 grims or w.e it is should be deleted from milkman quests
god thats shit
However you won't get damaged by ranged attacks until you have toughness
thanks for clarifying
Np
the plasma gun is pretty sweet
It is
how does your look
