#

i'm guessing most players try to stay at higher heat lvl

soft blade
#

usually yeah

#

since high heat has essentially zero risk

#

not much reason to vent constantly

sonic marlin
#

can't shoot forever, what do you do if ur fighting a boss and its coming for you

soft blade
#

you pull out your melee and stall until you get breathing room

sonic marlin
soft blade
#

if a boss is on your ass you’re not gonna shoot it anyways

sonic marlin
#

so using gloryhunter and blaze away is a bad idea?

south garnet
#

Your mother

soft blade
#

i mean not really

sonic marlin
soft blade
#

blessings on plasma barely matter

sonic marlin
#

wjat

soft blade
#

glory hunter is the only one i’d say is genuinely impactful

umbral scaffold
#

Blaze away and gets hot

civic knot
#

Does shredder pistol have bad finesse value?

soft blade
#

gets hot just coincides with the most common style of play

sonic marlin
#

lol just rolled this one

#

stopping power is what, stagger?

umbral scaffold
#

Stagger and damage modifier

sonic marlin
#

eh ill upgrade it and hope i roll blaze away maxed

umbral scaffold
#

Crit chance and power is much better than toughness regen as a blessing. If you’re already running ET and the elite toughness talent it’s a little redundant

sonic marlin
umbral scaffold
#

Gimps your offensive power for defensibility

soft blade
#

blaze away isn’t gonna actually help you reach bps

#

it’s better for bosses ig but it’s not like plasma is lacking in damage

#

gets hot is nice because it’s basically just perma crit chance

acoustic sapphire
#

Why do I have to pay real money to get fake money to pay for cool weapon skins? Why don't weapons have unlockable skins?

soft blade
#

not to say blaze away is bad but tbh i prefer glory hunter

acoustic sapphire
#

I want my plasma gun to have a buttstock so I have three points of contact like you're supposed to.

gaunt hinge
acoustic sapphire
#

Yeah. Red and Blue.
How invigorating.

#

The drip is weak in this game.

#

Fat Shark doesn't even make all skins available. I would've spent my real money on fake money to buy tank armor for my Ogryn if it were simply available.

soft blade
#

weapon skins in this game suck

#

honestly most of the cosmetics do

#

but weapons skins it’s low quantity and pretty shit quality as well

acoustic sapphire
#

It might be rude to compare Darktide to Vermintide, but Vermintide 2 had great skins available to unlock in game.
And their DLC skins could be bought directly through steam at all times.
Darktide needs to adopt that. As well as solo games. Sometimes I just want to creep through a mission.

soft blade
#

the weapon customization mod comes in so clutch for making cool looking weapons

late hatch
acoustic sapphire
late hatch
#

cant be a dead game if players are still talking about it

acoustic sapphire
#

Actually, I'm imagining community content for Darktide. Imagine if Darktide's endgame was to collect hats.

#

Vox Modulators sell for 500 keys.

short vapor
soft blade
#

even better

acoustic sapphire
#

Just over charge every shot.

umbral scaffold
#

guess blaze away isnt that good guys

soft blade
#

it’s okay

#

shares second place behind gets hot with glory hunter

umbral scaffold
terse idol
#

Its...

#

Its on par with gets hot

soft blade
#

it’s not that good tbh

terse idol
#

Glory hunter is like the >=

#

Or just =

umbral scaffold
#

definite trollin, just ignore

soft blade
#

okay man

#

i literally just said glory hunter is equal to it and you can’t find a rebuttal

#

beyond a single scoreboard

umbral scaffold
#

i have

#

no i explained survivability is something u take talents for not waste a blessing on

terse idol
#

I mean I agree with klepto

#

although I value blaze away, a little higher

umbral scaffold
#

take confirmed kill and ET

#

live forever

south garnet
#

blaze away more like gaze at hay cause that's all you'll have to do after all the people you chew up using it!

#

LMAO!

terse idol
#

I'm just saying it's not trolling

#

Its a valid discussion

soft blade
#

i guess not

serene sage
#

vet chat will move on to nuclear fission if we keep splitting hair like this KEKW_ogryn

soft blade
#

true

light ore
#

So how about those knife blessings

soft blade
#

not really worth arguing about blessings on plasma tbh

south garnet
#

I'm hairless 4'2 and 600 lbs. a perfect orb

soft blade
#

at the end of the day it’s still plasma lmfao

south garnet
#

can't split any of my hairs

umbral scaffold
#

bein a little toxic is perfect for getting better. steel sharpens steel and the strongest steel is forged in the hottest flames (my excuse 4 being a little mean)

terse idol
#

Its been talked to death

#

Pgun is like eh, I think it's so basic

#

We've figured out most of it

umbral scaffold
#

plasgun blessing idea: make a blessing that makes the blast radius the size of an ogryn nuke, new meta is vet players running max wounds and suicide bombing themselves

soft blade
light ore
soft blade
#

knife vet and its consequences

hard briar
soft blade
#

make it so the gun can just explode randomly on any heat level

#

and take your team with you

hearty panther
#

honestly i think they should make the plasma gun hurt you again

#

bring that back

#

and buff the charge shot into something hilarious

terse idol
#

It should melt your face

hearty panther
#

like actual carapace cleave perhaps

umbral scaffold
#

suicide bomb plasma gun meta

short vapor
hard briar
tiny summit
#

Why the fuck do you need to ads the plasma besides wanting deadshot

hard briar
hard briar
soft blade
#

crank the damage to the fucking moon and just have the mf scream every time he vents even if the heat is low

tiny summit
hard briar
#

we have better finesse

#

give me the crit plasma

#

gets hot+ deadshot

tiny summit
#

Should just blow you up for wanting that

hard briar
#

like i dont care if its meta, i just want the option

#

big numbers

tiny summit
#

I run MF helbore. Guess I can't really talk

hard briar
#

tho i think my suggestions would make Plasma a right side talent tree weapon and ranged weapon for melee vets

#

which isnt so bad

#

not that it cant do that now

sonic marlin
#

god i hate auspex games

#

was just doing one and we just kept getting overrun and couldn't even scan lol

tiny summit
#

Isn't it lovely when the hab dreyko finale is at 150% the entire time?

soft blade
tiny summit
#

Sometimes hab dreyko finale is unrelenting. Sometimes the director is asleep

soft blade
#

simply hold the auspex in your teeth so you can shooting

sonic marlin
#

Does anyone use the boltor?

hard briar
#

dude finding the auspex shit isnt a bad mini game but i just hate the team will get so caught up fighting stuff they dont do the obj so ur chipped down

hearty panther
#

i use bolber

sonic marlin
#

same thing happened lol we just kept dying and reviving ourselves

soft blade
#

i lobe the boulder

gaunt hinge
#

bolter white

tiny summit
#

Love bolts

soft blade
#

boltah

sonic marlin
#

the plasma just feels so slow

#

whats the second option when it comes to like a boomstick

sonic marlin
#

revoler, shotgun or boltor

soft blade
#

revolver

#

bolter is gud tho

tiny summit
#

If you think plasma is slow. Bolter is even slower.

soft blade
#

shotgun i have zero clue

sonic marlin
#

ill try it out and see what i like

gaunt hinge
#

slug shotty is pretty slow

soft blade
#

if you want a pocket hand cannon revolver is prolly what you want

terse idol
#

Revolver is on par with plasma

sonic marlin
#

whats boltor godroll

terse idol
#

Play revolver weapon spec and badaboom

soft blade
#

^

sonic marlin
sonic marlin
soft blade
#

that’s the agri revolver

white minnow
#

we have them both

terse idol
#

It's good

soft blade
#

unfortunately that’s the less good one

white minnow
#

weapon spec has an upgrade node that reloads bullets based on melee kills

soft blade
#

it’s not as bad as people say but i don’t really like agri rev

terse idol
#

It also guarantees a crit on next shot after swap

sonic marlin
#

i wanna try boltor first

#

then revolvers

#

whats the godroll for boltor

soft blade
#

surgical and pinning fire?

#

i honestly can’t remember

hearty panther
#

or shattering pinning

#

pretty much your choices

#

i do unyielding + elite after that

#

i would maybe do carapace instead of elite but im still not entirely sure if i would

sonic marlin
#

yeah shattering impact and pinning fire seems to be the most common i see on gameslantern builds

#

but the perks vary alot

tiny summit
#

Think of the bolter in only 2 modes. Primary - basically a big fuckoff DMR
Secondary - mag dump for an endorphin hit and then post clarity

hearty panther
#

if youre bringing it to be precise i personally think youre already making a mistake

#

so many other weapons do precision better

frank basin
#

Primary mag dump
Secondary fuck off DMr

hearty panther
#

but yes ^

sonic marlin
#

does it have a dumpstat?

hearty panther
#

collateral

sonic marlin
#

and stability right

hearty panther
#

stability you do want

frank basin
#

Stagger on boltgun not needed?

hearty panther
#

cause it is reaaaal bad

#

well you only need a pretty low collateral % to pop open a bulwark with a single shot

#

you dont want it to be literally 0%

#

but it's something like 30-40%

#

if youre using ex stance with it then it doesnt even matter

#

cause ex stance buffs your ranged impact by 100%

tiny summit
sonic marlin
#

idk if i should sell it for money or extract blessing lol, is there any reason to collect low tier blessings?

#

i upgraded it when i knew jack shit

hearty panther
#

to do it

terse idol
#

I mean you can

sonic marlin
#

i need money more

sonic marlin
tiny summit
frank basin
sonic marlin
#

would be nice to have it in the collection but in the end it doesn't really matter

#

is there a penance for that or no

frank basin
#

Nope

sonic marlin
#

cool

#

why can't we dissolve shit for half the resources

tiny summit
#

To keep you playing to scrounge for pocket change during a mission

sonic marlin
#

probably should wait to get a better one until investing huh

hearty panther
#

no

#

thats pretty good

tiny summit
#

Yea

hearty panther
#

easily worth purping

frank basin
#

Stability is meh for it

hearty panther
#

it actually has real noticable impact

#

and any time you try to ADS without Ex Stance it's just oh my GOD STAY FUCKING STIIILL

tiny summit
#

Unless of course you want to fish for godrolls. But otherwise perfectly fine as one to see if you like it

sonic marlin
hearty panther
#

nice

frank basin
#

Good

#

Shatter nice

hearty panther
#

unyielding also nice

#

ur gud

frank basin
#

Yes

hearty panther
#

upgrade it after your next mission

tiny summit
sonic marlin
#

so unyielding and carapace or maniac?

#

flak probably no right

hearty panther
#

its gonna depend

#

on a shitload of nodes

#

and whether you are or are not using them

#

it's why i just threw +elites on mine

#

its basically everything

sonic marlin
#

huh

hearty panther
#

and a bunch of breakpoints are really reached with pinning fire

frank basin
#

Extra 10% combine superior complex and you have total 25%

#

Therefore your weapon deal universal elite enemies

fleet thicket
#

@sharp ember hey btw I was doing some testing for mgiv kantrael

hearty panther
#

its true also that +Carapace is 'good'

#

like it will totally breakpoint Crushers for you

#

but even on aurics like ... there's not that many crushers

fleet thicket
#

I think headhunter infernus is a legit build on that gun

sonic marlin
#

so elites?

frank basin
#

Yeah

hearty panther
#

it's safe yeah

#

maniac is also good tbf

#

but that's a surprisingly small list of enemies

sonic marlin
#

not sure if i should make changes to my talents for boltor

#

its for close range right

#

mid maybe

#

?

trim steppe
tiny summit
# trim steppe 🤔

Not 80% dmg. Sorry trash. Can't even 1 tap a dreg gunner w/o MF or Longshot kicking in

trim steppe
#

sad trombone noises

tiny summit
#

Probably. I usually don't run elite

#

Pretty much unarmored perk, elite dmg talent, Longshot is needed for a helbore built on the left side down with precision strikes needs 80dmg to 1 tap a dreg gunner. 79dmg will say it does 1400 and the dreg gunner is alive with 1 or below 1, because I don't fucking know, hp

trim steppe
#

That's quite the list of requirements

#

W/e I don't even like this effing gun I was just looking for blessings KEKW_ogryn

tiny summit
#

Really isn't. You just need 1 of them with a below 80dmg hb1

sonic marlin
#

@tall torrent you got any recommendation for Boltgun? Talents mostly, i think for perks unyielding and elite, blessings shattering impact and pinning fire

hearty panther
#

ill show u mine

#

but its ultra generic tbh

#

vet is just dummy strong

#

i do run with a knife so that'll inform some of the choices

hearty panther
#

god vet is so dumb

sonic marlin
#

thinking about it I could've gotten rid of the keystone in my plasma build too since i barely ever pinged enemies

#

maybe bosses

hearty panther
#

i have many vet tree opinions

fleet thicket
#

I mean

#

Vet worse thing

#

Is getting items for it

#

Soo many useless blessings

#

Psyker and ogryn have such small number of blessings getting brick items is actually less likely

#

I hate crafting for vet

#

fleet thicket
#

Why does infantry lasgun got begilion blessings man

fleet thicket
sonic marlin
tiny summit
#

Exe + Bolter fun

fleet thicket
#

Plus ogryn is still brain dead easy to craft for

#

God GG got like 4 blessings xD

soft blade
wise fossil
#

100% do not use lacerate

hollow ibex
broken shore
#

I'm using it in conjunction with a fanning revolver or a headhunter autogun if that helps

soft blade
#

precog/uncanny is good for general use uncanny/mercy killer if you have the node that procs bleed every hit

#

uncanny/riposte is also good

broken shore
#

I do have that node for one build

#

but not the other lmao

soft blade
#

i mean the talent node not the blessing

broken shore
#

Ye

#

my revolver build has that node, my autogun build does not

#

sorry I didn't speak clearly lol

soft blade
#

if you’ve got the node run uncanny and mercy killer

wise fossil
#

Everything that's not smackdown, lacerate, or Haymaker can work in some build or another

soft blade
#

you’ll prolly just need 2 knives

#

knife is a pretty picky weapon

#

general rule of thumb is uncanny is mandatory tho

wise fossil
#

Uncanny, precog, and riposte are all very good

broken shore
#

good to know

#

also does the mk matter?

#

my current one is mk vi

soft blade
#

mk3 better for elites mk6 is “better” for hordes

#

i’d mostly recommend mk3 but the mk6 isn’t bad

hollow ibex
#

It's pretty much personal preference

#

Both very good

#

I use vi because I don't want to break my fingers

soft blade
#

mk6 is probably better for bleed node since the heavies allow for better horde clear

broken shore
#

it's my horde weapon p much by default

#

one ranged is low capacity

#

one ranged is a long range semi-auto

#

and it's served me all right in that capacity

#

staggers the shit out of people for some reason

soft blade
#

yeah the knife is good at stalling because le high attack speed

frank basin
#

Which knife is?

broken shore
#

I think just 'the knife' as in both of them

#

they both attack rly fast

soft blade
#

you just mash m1 and dodge and the stuff in front of you is just kinda helpless

#

also wrong reply moment

So nobody really talking about the political angle besides moreso western ppl criticizing his legacy

tall torrent
#

I’m not sure if Shinzo Abe is more famous for denying war crimes or for telling the Japanese population to have more kids

bitter turtle
#

Which is fair since Abe is a real piece of shit tbh lmao

bitter turtle

#

do you think Big E encourage people to have sex?

bitter turtle
#

Psychically projecting horniness into everyone's mind

#

🤔

serene sage
#

I mean it's pretty practical

#

they need fresh people

iron marten
#

I thought they would have cloning in the imperium

#

unless that's heretical of the highest order

serene sage
#

it is illegal I think

#

the Kriegs are infamous for it

#

basically a loophole

bitter turtle
#

Cloning is illegal yeah

serene sage
#

cause they use Vitae Womb or something

iron marten
#

I mean, stims are illegal too no? lmao

bitter turtle
#

That's why spess mehrines have to do the geneseed shit recruit emotionally unstable teenage kids shit

serene sage
#

stims?

#

what is this, Starcraft?

bitter turtle
#

They aren't allowed to clone marines

edgy dew
serene sage
#

sick dude, I think maniac or unarmored

#

unarmored lets you one shot dreg gunners more reliably

tall torrent
#

I’d do maniac

serene sage
#

maniac is self explanatory

tall torrent
#

Dreg gunner you’ll most likely slug HS them anyway

serene sage
#

great gun though thumbsup_ogryn

#

non slug can be done with Long Shot

#

so unarmored helps that way

edgy dew
#

okay ill try maniac, I have a feeling it alrdy one shots most unarmored things

serene sage
#

but maniac is also cool

tall torrent
#

It’s still inconsistent because it drops dmg

serene sage
tall torrent
#

Or accuracy due to pellet spread

#

Whichever, but the 1 shots aren’t very consistent further away

serene sage
#

otherwise, yes, slug kills everything

stone dome
#

those are some neat looking stats

torpid pier
#

damn those stats so satisfying to look at

mystic owl

#

It's fine don't look at it, here

mystic owl
#

NICE ROLL!

pearl granite
#

are headhunter and brauto gud?

atomic zephyr
#

yes

#

They serve entirely different purposes but yes

pearl granite
#

I just want to try new gun 😄

#

what are they used for

zealous wyvern
#

killing heretics

atomic zephyr
#

honestly it’s pretty self explanatory

zealous wyvern
#

precisely from afar with some gunfu hipfire melee vs hipfire midtocloserange carnage and killing armoured targets with onslaught talent

atomic zephyr
#

headhunter go BANG
brauto go bangbangbang

zealous wyvern
#

there you go i told you everything

pearl granite
stone dome
#

what do with this?

#

replace no respite with headhunter?

soft blade
#

kinda borked

#

but yeah

stone dome
#

what do with perks

soft blade
#

kiiinda salvageable with HH and then change infested to flak or maniac

#

not good but still usable

stone dome
#

fair nuf, this will probably sit with me for a long while

tall torrent
#

Prob could swap no respite to headhunter, then swap infested to flak/maniac

#

But having a t1 blessing is just yikes

bitter turtle
stone dome
#

already done

soft blade
#

oh wait that’s tier one DA

stone dome
#

not ideal by any means, but it will do

soft blade
#

i guess

#

it’ll tide you over until you can roll a better one

zealous wyvern
#

dmg stats

pliant rain
#

a good rolled 350+ with better blessings perk will do better

mystic owl
#

I'd swap out No respite and swap infested enemies for flak/maniacs

zealous wyvern
#

especially the fkn mk12

#

you really dont want infested on that one

#

at least mk4 you can excuse it by saying you oneshot poxers now

#

but yeah those need a swap

faint perch
#

Does wall hack ult feel kinda bad or just me relying on shout

junior needle
#

Both

#

shout is just miles better and exe is both milder in benefit and harder to play around

atomic zephyr
#

give exe stance toughness DR

#

not the 75% it used to be maybe 50%

midnight totem
#

I'm starting to like laspistol toughness on crit kill for my weapon specialist veteran

faint perch
#

I would love for it to be buffed

#

Maybe bring the 75% DR back

wanton dawn
#

Bring back instant reload

#

Or speed it up or smth

junior needle
#

It's also a two parter that's behind ogryn highlights

placid portal
#

Ogryn mark should just have that damage bonus just like the lvl 30 upgrade

#

I wonder how 67% Damage vs Monster/Ogryn would fare in current patch?

shell python
#

so for the deadeye penance, does executioner's stance not work for it? or can you use it

faint perch
#

what should i go for on a dagger?

frank basin
#

You means combat blade aka the knife?

faint perch
#

i do yea

frank basin
#

There’s some playstyle with the knife

#

You want crowd control or single target dps

#

And no flesh tearer combine lacerate

#

You can go mercy killer with lacerate. Riposte with uncanny strike

frank basin
faint perch
#

looking for aoe

frank basin
#

For a knife you looking cc?

#

Combat blade mk VI are the CC attack pattern

#

Mk III poke and slash single target pattern.

junior needle
#

If your intention is to light attack mostly then mk3 is objectively superior for light spam due to one of the hits having more damage. All lights on both models have the same cleave values.

frank basin
#

replace blessing to riposte

junior needle
#

I wouldn’t dump uncanny ever, it’s the strongest blessing in their pool.

frank basin
#

No I meant replace lacerate to riposte

sharp ember
#

nothing like doubling your dmg vs flak with uncanny

frank basin
#

Just mercy killing and riposte

junior needle
#

Riposte/mercy is still dumping uncanny, which is bad

#

Realistically the options are uncanny and something else

frank basin
#

Yeah right

#

Rending strike is optional

junior needle
#

Uncanny gives 120% omnipresent rending that doesn’t fall off on a miss and works without individual target buildup

#

Which is 30% damage even in the worst case scenario of a target being 100% or above natively

frank basin
#

What are you talking about?

junior needle
#

I'm explaining why uncanny strike is good to the guy who wants to know about knife blessings?

#

What else would I be talking about?

junior needle
#

Rending over 100% gives bonus damage at 1/4 the value.

#

Or over 50% in the case of crushers

frank basin
#

What

junior needle
#

Yeah, it's been doing that since it got reworked

frank basin
#

Rending were sucked that time?

junior needle
#

That was a bit unclear

#

But if you're asking if it used to be bad, it used to work in a very convoluted and nonsensical way, and now it's very simple and benefits you even if you have good modifiers, just less so.

frank basin
#

You say Rending do damage over base value to armor, right?

junior needle
#

Yes. You get 1/4 the value over 100% as bonus damage.

frank basin
#

Kk

shell python
#

my fucking god deadeye is annoying

sharp ember
junior needle
#

You can test this very easily by taking a gun with a huge positive modifier (like an iag to maniacs) in the psyk and switching rending strikes on and off

sharp ember
#

which is confusing to say the least

#

I haven’t been assed to actually test it though

bitter turtle
junior needle
faint perch
sharp ember
#

ah, that’s good then

bitter turtle
junior needle
#

Fatshark has had issues with internal communication and clearly labeling things

frank basin
junior needle
#

Hence why "base damage" is literally just damage

bitter turtle
#

unyieidling for boss dps, carapace for easier crusher bps, flak/maniac because flak maniac is always decent

#

hell

#

even unarmored has a use

#

for dreg gunners lul

faint perch
#

im really using it for hoard clear and speed

bitter turtle
#

use a different weapon

junior needle
#

I wouldn't recommend maniac currently unless you intend to regularly fight unarmored ragers with it.

sharp ember
bitter turtle
#

horde clear is the worst part about the knife

frank basin
bitter turtle
#

and as I

#

extensively tested yesterday

faint perch
bitter turtle
#

and recorded

#

you really cant

#

cope the knife

#

into being good at horde clear

#

even mk6

faint perch
junior needle
#

Yeah knives don't excel at it like other weapons

frank basin
#

Is just bad cleave for knife

bitter turtle
#

it is a mobility and single target dps tool

#

mk6 does horde-ing a LITTLE better but still not very impressive

junior needle
#

If it could natively hit two bruisers it'd be nice

bitter turtle
#

or rather

#

you can try to make a horde knife

#

just dont expect it to work great

#

ofc you can do whatever you find fun

junior needle
#

To note, that means if you use heavies on the 6

#

light spam has slower clear on the 6

#

Because same cleave

frank basin
bitter turtle
#

that was my experience as well, even though i mostly tested lights on request

junior needle
#

but one attack does more damage on the 3

bitter turtle
#

heavies seemed to be a lot better

#

heavies with bleed actually had sort of a niche at horde-ing? for mk6

#

kinda?

#

for poxwalkers lights have no way to kill the cleaved poxwalkers without bending over backwards really hard even if you wait out the full bleed ticks

#

heavy cleaves proccing crit to bleed actually could kill them in a few dot ticks

#

its uh

#

still not good compared to any weapon actually good at horde clear

#

since ur relying on a dot for the weakest enemy in the game

#

but its... something?

#

lol

frank basin
#

Knife bleed bad it is?

wanton dawn
#

Never go into a melee weapon expecting it to outclass a PS in other things than dodging.

#

Then you can have fun

faint perch
frank basin
#

I didn’t use knife but that’s as long ago i used mark 3. Then I deleted it

faint perch
#

could it be better?

bitter turtle
#

also very strong

#

knife is really good but its more of a mobility tool than a weapon

#

it opens up a lot of opportunities to move around

#

but it doesnt do much in combat other than elite killing

#

it kinda forces your gun to play around your knife

wanton dawn
#

Rashad is way, way harder to build

frank basin
junior needle
bitter turtle
#

a lot of people pair brautos with knife since brautos can mow down hordes

frank basin
#

Like graia

wanton dawn
#

Also rashad being "weaker" against rager is a big deal

frank basin
bitter turtle
#

i honestly like rashad better on hordes than psword

#

just because you dont need to charge

#

lol

#

psword has better elite sniping though

#

meme stabbo

wanton dawn
#

On horde i prefer bayo KEKW_ogryn

junior needle
#

Lacerate is bad, because it's a trap blessing that encourages bodyshots on a finesse weapon. Flesh tearer is alright on zealot but I wouldn't take it on vet personally.

wanton dawn
#

Bayo is arguably stronger than PS for anything that is not in carapace

bitter turtle
#

yeah

#

lol

#

well

#

maulers too

#

even poking the flak body is still slower than psword

#

its not terrible though

frank basin
#

Ps when hating carapace on veteran

wanton dawn
#

Mauler are carapace weakspot

#

Which is why they are hard to kill

bitter turtle
#

ye

frank basin
#

1.0x headshot value

#

Does that right?

wanton dawn
#

On my bayo build, I play PS specifically to deal with carapace better

bitter turtle
#

i was looking at the mk4 taxe's goofy moveset

#

i hated it until i realized

sharp ember
bitter turtle
#

perfect for a katana

#

i wanna make one now

#

what'sthe best loadout for it

frank basin
#

On dclaw?

bitter turtle
#

im assuming bm is not very good since it seems incapable of oneshotting anything

wanton dawn
#

Yeah but katana needs bm

#

can't have a katana that does not cleave head

#

This is not subarashi

bitter turtle
#

im gonna turn every melee into a katana

frank basin
bitter turtle
#

and bring honor to atoma

bitter turtle
frank basin
#

Alright

bitter turtle
#

with that goofy ass underswing

#

on heavy

frank basin
#

It doesn’t feel right using Sabre blade on tacaxe

#

You hitting the bottom blade

#

Instead middle or end of the blade

bitter turtle
#

i have to use limbsplitter too

#

to simulate unsheathing my katana

frank basin
#

Show me clip what you means by that

bitter turtle
#

same energy :^)

frank basin

😔 boowomp

Inferior video format too

am simple computer user, apple computers be kinda meh

I’m on bed with my iPhone and is 3 morning with apple mobile distractions

will not pay 2k$ for some mid machine

My laptop is asleep

Oh yea apple computers suck

imagine paying 999$ for the fucking stand alone

Telegram the app?

There’s the furries in telegrams

Concerning that the furries are using telegram. The implication is grim.

This is why we have the patriot act

placid portal

This is the worst swat team I’ve seen

frank basin

You wanna see my telegram meme @umbral scaffold? I would send to dm only

umbral scaffold
#

Sounds like a great idea

#

Hope it’s not cat in a blender again

frank basin
#

Is not

bitter turtle
#

i forgot

#

i heard mixed things about infernus on laspistol

#

how is it

frank basin
#

I haven’t try

placid portal
#

mixed bag

#

probs only other damage option

#

other than dum dum

bitter turtle
#

guess ill get it

#

saw this in melk

#

seems passable enough

#

might as well try a new weapon

umbral scaffold
#

Your meme was even worse than the cat in a blender.

placid portal

How bad can it be

umbral scaffold

Furry gyatt

Yea sorry bud rather see the cat get turned into a smoothie alive again

Renounce your old ways. Convert.

#

Convert to whatever the fuck you want tbh

frank basin
#

What,

umbral scaffold
#

Just not what you’re doing rn

stiff glacier
#

not sure is this good

umbral scaffold
#

Jesus, Muhammad, Yahweh, spaghetti monster or kwanza. Believe in what you want as long as it’s not furry porn

stiff glacier
#

need +25 vs maniacs probably

umbral scaffold
#

No

#

Maniac on melee is kinda wack because maniacs already take x3 dmg from melee

frank basin
umbral scaffold
#

Be not depressed. Whenever you don’t feel like doing something imagine the chadgryn chadgryn

frank basin
#

That’s sound toxic positive I think?

umbral granite
#

I think i wasted all my hadron luck on a shovel... 2 level 4 blessings in a row...

umbral scaffold
#

Was gonna go on a rant about how toxic positive is just a buzz word but this is vet chat

#

My bad gang

umbral scaffold
#

attacking ragers with melee isn’t the brightest idea

gusty bison
#

??

#

Its a mk 3 shovel

#

U one tap them

umbral scaffold
#

counter point: guns

gusty bison
#

Counter counter point. Melee

#

Melee vet strongest vet

umbral scaffold
#

Counter counter point: guns extend much further than 3 meters

gusty bison
#

Unironically

gusty bison
umbral scaffold
#

Ragers are elites and replenish ammo with survivalist, shovel kills fast sure but ragers are maniacs and take increased dmg from melee when you do find an opening

gusty bison
#

They dont

#

Take increased damage from melee

umbral scaffold
#

Proof?

gusty bison
#

Just go into psykaniun =.=

umbral granite
umbral scaffold
#

Ragers are tankier

gusty bison
#

Only 3 enemies take triple melee damage

#

Flamer
Dogs
Mutants

gusty bison
#

Vs muties 4k

#

But its easier to kill muties in melee than rager

frank basin
#

Is awkward for me

umbral scaffold
#

I’ll test rager dmg In psykhanium out but unless someone else is dodging and Kiting the rager it’s usually not worth trading with ragers

#

Maybe if I had a devils claw

gusty bison
#

You 1 tap ragers

#

Like

#

U kill them before they can even swing

tough tiger
#

Just parry

gusty bison
#

Plus ur vet

#

Taking one hit means nothing since ur tou just instantly bounces back to full anyway

umbral scaffold
#

Shooting them tho

#

Work smarter

gusty bison
#

Shooting is sometimes not possible

proven oasis
#

counter point: las gun go pew pew make me happi

gusty bison
#

Unless ur using plasma or volver

#

Which are braindead weapons

umbral scaffold
#

Feel bad for ragers, they haven’t gotten a real update from their Vermintide berserkers roots, get put into a world with fully automatic weapons and guns that melt your face off

#

Also said universe people can now slide and sprint

gusty bison
#

Eh ragers are much scarier than VT2

#

Cos u cant effectively chain block them

proven oasis
gusty bison
#

You can chainblock berserkers in VT2 no problem

umbral scaffold
#

Vermintide pvp is gonna get very toxic I have a gut feeling

#

It’s more accessible considering it was free at several points in time

gusty bison
#

Also ragers are a lot more resillient in DT than berserkers are in VT2

umbral scaffold
#

Usually on sale for pennies

gusty bison
#

A lot of guns struggle to get 1 tap breakpoints on ragers

#

But berserkers are usually a comfy easy 1 tap

#

Even in the body for some weps

umbral scaffold
#

You make a good point abt the ragers being updated but remember players got upgrades too, it feels easy to increase distance from ragers while also shooting them in the face repeatedly

#

Vermintide players were much less mobile

gusty bison
#

Yea but in VT2 u just one tapped them
