this is real

#

their suit does that

finite imp
#

Imagine coming to attention because space Marines have entered the room and JohnDoe pipes up and is like DO YALL SHIT IN YER SUITS?

exotic sandal
#

Servo skulls don’t fight though, could be a good tool for reconnaissance. Maybe send a servo skull out and it can highlight every enemy in a room

finite imp
#

"we are all getting executed for dinner."

finite imp
#

"yes, guardsmen. We do." Pops him with a bolt pistol

exotic sandal
#

Even in death, Jerry’s skull still serves the inquisition!

serene sage
#

but yeah Servo Skulls are mostly only for utilities

#

which is neat imo

frank ether
#

could be a defensive/utility tool for a class

#

doesnt have to be offensive

serene sage
#

it reloads for you, scout, heal, etc.

finite imp
#

Imagine a servo skull picking you up in a fight

exotic sandal
#

I dunno I’d rather have the cherub

finite imp
#

Spotting enemies

exotic sandal
#

Cherubs are more grim dark than servo skulls anyway

finite imp
#

Bro said servo skills aren't grim dark

serene sage
finite imp
#

Damn

serene sage
#

👍

#

we have Servo Skulls in other games already

#

just copy paste

frank ether
# serene sage

oo I can already see this being an ult for a new class where you can customize it

finite imp
#

We got servo skulls at home

exotic sandal
finite imp
#

Replace grim grabbers with servo skulls

#

The revolver has been patched to fire servo skulls until further notice

frank ether
#

would skitari also mean arc weapons

vagrant hornet
#

Is the shotgun pretty much trash? Or does it have niche use like killing special mobs/bosses

frank ether
#

It can be built to fit your needs either cleave or higher damage

south garnet
#

Depends on the shotgun, they all have use case

tough tiger
#

Shotguns can ragdoll ragers iirc

junior needle
#

Just like a xenos means xenos weapons

frank ether
junior needle
frank ether
#

design, balancing, artwork, playtesting etc

#

and then unique weapons it would come along with

trim steppe
frank ether
#

they just dont care for our opinions

#

likely private testing

trim steppe
#

Like just the fire rework botched launch was proof that they dont even playtest

#

It wasn't even bugged, they just had the values too high

junior needle
#

There were playtesters in here

#

But I assume they do quite a few things without either playtesting or listening to playtesters if they do

finite imp
junior needle
#

Or the playtesters aren't giving good feedback, like how one guy said "Oh the recons boyos will be happy with a build next patch :^)"

#

And then it was nothing

trim steppe
#

They aren't playtesting, listening to playtesters, or they are hiring absolute 5-hour-in normies to test

tough tiger
#

Bro playtests on uprising

finite imp
#

we will never do damage again

#

what even is this question

#

both of our weapons are literally anti crusher

late hatch
#

bro is probably slashing them

finite imp
#

lmfao

frank basin
#

The real question is: can he dodge 8-9 crushers same time?

tough tiger
#

If enough space, yes

frank basin
#

And if not

late hatch
#

preacher gives everyone time to deal with crushers

tough tiger
#

Preacher? New class

finite imp
junior needle
#

In fairness, the overheads have ridiculous splash and it'll still hit me sometimes even if I dodge it

finite imp
#

i kill packs all the time solo

#

and pubbies just STARE AT ME

frank basin
finite imp
#

NOT EVEN A SINGLE COMPLIMENT

tough tiger
#

Cuz i can stand right next to overhead impact and be fine

finite imp
#

"Just joined a DT public game and some guy was running around at full speed with 13 stamina bars killing everything at lightning speed chanting "COCAINE" and "COMPLIMENT ME"

crisp abyss
#

hello guys i wanna ask a dumb question , why no one use smoke nades?

frank basin
#

Most of people favor damage than utility’s

#

Well I’m the person has one loadout use smoke grenade. Which when room full of gunners

#

I think people would say “it suck”

crisp abyss
#

do i have toz be in the smoke to work?

frank basin
#

In smoke you block LoS of ranged enemies

crisp abyss
#

or them?

frank basin
#

Both

#

Iirc someone said the smoke grenade function is fucky

crisp abyss
#

how about between us and gunner?

frank basin
#

They go melee range

#

When you get to close

#

Far away they continuously firing one spot

crisp abyss
#

melee enemy can stil fuck me up in somke right?

night locust
frank basin
#

Enemies can see you in smoke

#

Melee enemies

#

And yes they still can see you

#

Smoke grenade does have small stagger

#

I use this just throw at someone got pounce by hound far away

crisp abyss
#

got it gunner turn to melee with somke or blind fire the somke

frank basin
#

Once time

night locust
frank basin
junior needle
frank basin
#

Only when you leave the smoke radius the gunner or shooter reangling targeting you

night locust
#

can smoke disable melee?

frank basin
#

Smoke only stagger melee enemies

#

When they are close

#

Middle ground of smoke grenade

#

They still can see you

night locust
#

would have been godtier on clutches to save downed teamates if smoke totally disables everyone

frank basin
#

Flash grenade does disable enemies

#

Only zealot get it

#

Smoke save team getting shot from gunners and reapers from distance

#

Like hiding yourself from ranged enemies

night locust
#

flashes does it momentarily. Smoke is continuous ykwim

frank basin
#

Smoke has duration yeah

crisp abyss
#

zealot with flashbang

idle carbon
#

small quick flash that you throw like zealot knives for instant stun on demand of small groups

crisp abyss
#

yknow zealot is just like scout a glasscannon

frank basin
#

Demoscout

#

Knightscout

crisp abyss
#

i once saw a zealot two hit a crusher with a powerhammer

idle carbon
#

better yet, veteran smoke is replaced with pocket sand lol

#

fight dirty

thick wolf
#

Anakin Skywalker hates it

frank ether
#

unironically

hardy wasp
#

what voice is best with the scion helmet?

teal oasis
#

Is the krak grenade worth it over the shredder if I mainly use a boltgun, also what melee is good to combo with the boltgun

frank basin
#

The damn PS 🧌

crisp abyss
#

you use the boltgun as a "OH SHIT" weapon right? get a horde clearing melee

teal oasis
serene bough
#

I pick my grenades based on how well my weapons deal with armor

crisp abyss
thorn radish
#

i start to think auto reload should be a node instead taken out of vet entirely

#

man do i miss em on the vet

tiny summit
#

Love that ogryn and psyker both get better gun dps abilities than vet...

hardy wasp
thorn radish
#

disrupt desitny would slap on vet

crisp abyss
#

yknow i would use the boltgun if it wasnt so slow, i dont mind the recoil

teal oasis
#

Imo it gets pulled out to slow

tiny summit
#

Wish exe had a longer base duration and exe kills gave X secs over complete refresh

crisp abyss
#

wat

torpid bluff
#

Ive never used the knife, is this a decent roll?

frank basin
#

Nah

#

Someone maybe gonna say the first target is bad

torpid bluff
#

what should i replace, or should i scrap it for a blessing

frank basin
#

Just scrap with the blessing

torpid bluff
#

which one, Haymaker?

frank basin
#

Maybe

frank ether
#

I just finished a game

#

where a total of 7 teammates ragequit

#

another one bites the dust

frank basin
frank ether
frank basin
#

Harsh

frank ether
#

who knows maybe one day FS will make iLas do carapace damage

#

then this roll can be somewhat saved

idle carbon
#

I wonder if, by Darktide balancing, actual storm troopers would be functionally resistant to the hordes of moebian 6th shooters, stalkers, and gunners we face on a regular basis

frank basin
#

What’s iconic for veteran then?

idle carbon
#

that also makes me wonder why the scab gunners, who for the most part look like stormtroopers / grenadiers, don't have carapace armor
suppose they're their own thing

terse idol
#

too expensive

#

Most guardsmen have Flak

#

Tempestus scions get Carapace

#

Like Karskin

#

And Scab gunners aren't elite

frank basin
#

What?

#

They are not elite in game file?

finite imp
#

It's the standard issue militarum kit for a private

junior needle
frank basin
finite imp
#

If you ever read the catachan devils they actually describe everything in an guardsmans standard issue pack

finite imp
#

It's super valuable when you want pubbies to hate you

terse idol
#

Lorewise, they're not "elite" are they?

finite imp
#

No

terse idol
#

Oh.... wait....

#

They are a cut above the standard scab gunners...

finite imp
#

Scab gunners are literally nurgle thugs with guns

junior needle
#

Dregs you mean

finite imp
#

They just happen to have a stubber

junior needle
#

scabs are guard traitors

idle carbon
terse idol
#

Yeah, I guess you're right

finite imp
junior needle
#

The hotshot volley guns that I should have

idle carbon
#

at least on tabletop, hotshot volley guns are only found in the hands of tempestus scions

finite imp
#

Unless some rando on a forge world picks them up

#

I mean we are fighting inside of literally weapons manufactorims

frank basin
#

I’m envious the traitor guard has hotshot volley gun

terse idol
#

I mean maybe the 6'st keeps most of their infantry lighter

finite imp
#

The heretics aint gonna be like don't let sarge see me with this volley gun or hell give me lashings

idle carbon
terse idol
#

Only like Crushers have carapace

junior needle
#

and mauler heads

#

The ogryns have some carapace spots I think

finite imp
junior needle
#

Like the reapers bracelet

finite imp
#

Maybe they should do more coke and sprinting

idle carbon
frank basin
terse idol
#

seems like Carpaace is waayy too heavy

finite imp
#

Moebian 6th more like moebian BITCH

#

You think a chaos spawn is scary? Check me out

frank basin
#

Carapace like 5mm armor

#

Flak just 1.5mm armor

finite imp
#

A crusher looks so fucking uncomfortable in that armor lol

#

There's no way that's not chaffing

#

Dude dune 2 (knife but in the desert this time) comes out March 1st

#

Hype

#

Well

#

Part 2

idle carbon
#

imagine if Fathshark actually add in Scab Stormtroopers, complete with hellguns and carapace over everything except upper legs / lower torso (or all carapace if we want to be cruel), the rest flak
ranged enemies with majority carapace would drive us up the wall lol

terse idol
#

I mean if they gave me a lasgun variant for anti-carapace sure.

finite imp
#

Hey guys we know y'all asked for heavy weapons so we added them but only for your enemies have fun

terse idol
#

I'd be down to clown

idle carbon
#

not only that, but you only encounter them in patrol-sized units
you're in for a kicking

finite imp
#

Here's a random dreg with a MELTA

#

KABLAMMO OUT OF FUCKING NOWHERE

frank basin
#

Hype like autism

idle carbon
#

funny you say that
there is a scab with a plasma gun mentioned in the files

finite imp
#

LOL

idle carbon
#

not like a captain, something more common

frank basin
#

I think they scrapped

idle carbon
#

you never know what might happen

finite imp
#

Suddenly plasma beams start getting emitted from the pack of dregs. Lovely

frank basin
#

Adding plasma enemy just high threat than sniper

finite imp
#

Consider what plasma does to carapace yeah that would be a priority 1 target

finite imp
#

They need me

idle carbon
frank basin
finite imp

It quickly becomes that

honestly I would like to see more specials that are just out to kill you, like the sniper

Buff the knife I ain't scared

Go ahead

Feed me more power

Dodge cool down is not an impediment to uptime in this instance KEKW_ogryn

American game industry take crunch time and fasting the processed game like capitalism

Was Overkill base in Sweden?

whats most suprising to me is how much praise pd3 got from media

late hatch
frank basin
frank ether
#

Either way GTFO devs taking their own approach at a heist game I heard

#

I'm curious to see how that will turn out

idle carbon
#

I mean, Battlefield? also swedes
also terrible, at launch anyway, and to an certain extent now

frank ether
#

There is no saving 2042

late hatch
finite imp
#

It's all just shareholder and stock gooners. Selling at game launch so when the stock plumments and everyone realizes it's shit they can buy it back in the same afternoon, then profit off the hype of the next shitty game the studio farts out. Rinse and repeat.

frank ether
frank basin
#

Gamergate is that website article about gaming?

frank ether
#

I only trust steam reviews at this point but even thats not as reliable

#

be it gamers review bombing over silly things or AAA companies just pumping fake reviews

like diablo 4 was pumping fake steam reviews last I heard

#

I forgor about it

#

already

junior needle
#

Had tons of positive reviews barely out of release, and that game is DOG. You had accounts with like 30 hours on it reviewing it a day later

frank ether
#

let me guess

#

live service

#

hero shooter?

#

I have consumed zero media about the game

#

didnt even see the trailer

finite imp
frank ether
#

but I can sum it up

#

live service

#

hero shooter

frank basin
#

Day Before

with destiny style loot elements

finite imp

Bro even the UI

#

Looks like destiny

frank basin
#

Oh you means Outrider?

frank ether
#

did I get it right so far?

finite imp
#

Circle cursor and everything

frank basin
#

It is the Outriders?

#

Outriders is little bit destiny

#

Looter shooter but I finished the game story

frank ether
#

no other live service

finite imp
#

The people who run the show at DC and Marvel corporate are complete idiots

Who are destroying a very loved set of franchises to make a bunch of lizards happy

super heroes I sleep

finite imp
#

Smh

frank ether
#

its been milked enough and I kinda grew up

like it was interesting a decade ago

I never even liked super hero movies and it's a shame they are burning it all down

#

Aye why gordan locking in like that?

frank basin
#

Looking*

finite imp
#

Nah

#

Locking

frank basin
#

Locking what?

finite imp
#

Locking in is what you do when the teacher told you and your friend in the back of the classroom to shut the fuck up right as you just told the funniest joke

#

Locking in is when you lean forward in your seat cuz your little cousin beat you at Mario Cart and called you garbage

#

Locked in

#

It's to suddenly get serious

frank basin
#

Is that new slang? I dont like new slang

rancid veldt
#

does rampage exist on the cadia chainsword? just upgraded 15 to blue and didnt get one

finite imp
#

Too bad the world is spinning and we traveling 20,000 mph

#

We change in this mf

#

Obama was right

rancid veldt
#

which is better?

frank basin
#

The right obvious

junior needle
#

Likely right in terms of stats because the damage difference is fairly small and the mobility disparity will be surprisingly big

junior needle
#

Mobility isn't really a dump stat on melee

#

Which can make it hard on stat hungry weapons

finite imp
#

3 damage

frank basin
#

Mobility is quite need for in term dodging distance

finite imp
#

I promise you that 3 damage ain't gonna push you across that break point my brother

finite imp
#

I have that song stuck in my head

#

Tempurature by Sean paul

junior needle
#

But yeah. minor difference unlikely to affect breakpoints

I played Cyberpunk 2077 at launch. Minimal bugs, minimal glitches, nothing that detracted from my experience and ran pretty ok. If I was a reviewer I would have a pretty glowing review of its performance

frank ether
#

I get what you mean though

tiny summit
frank ether
#

cyberpunk release wasnt terrible on performance for pc

#

but it was hella buggy

#

for me

radiant chasm
#

Yea i played c2077 on launch and uhh

#

It was buggy

finite imp
#

Naw bro

frank ether
#

and I was disappointed with the game compared to what was promised

radiant chasm
#

Not as bad performance issues as console was having

finite imp
#

They were just features

frank ether
#

I had a GTX 1070 and game ran better than darktide release did lol

radiant chasm
#

But i had a lot of bugs, and a few completely game breaking

tiny summit
#

the most amount of bugs I experienced with Cyberpunk 2077 were the funny cars spawning in buildings and blowing up or falling from the sky. It was funny when they happened but nowhere near a frequency that took me out of an experience

finite imp
frank ether
finite imp
#

To be fair

radiant chasm
#

I had a motorcycle where the front wheel would just thrust back and forth when i pressed accelerate

tiny summit
#

that said my praise of cyberpunk 2077 was "the best ubisoft style open world I played in a while with some good writing carrying it"

frank ether
#

the joke of ''next gen'' game releasing on last gen hardware that was considered old even back when it was new

radiant chasm
#

Cars flying when spawned in

#

Dead bodies moving or freezing in place

finite imp
frank ether
#

in general

tiny summit
frank ether
#

and AI having weird reactions or no reactions

radiant chasm
#

Police were just

#

Shit design in vanilla

#

But i do miss old cold blood

frank ether
#

also what the game had storywise and world building

#

just lackluster compared to hype train

finite imp
#

For some reason my character glitched out and hired a gay hooker >:C thanks a lot CDPR

frank ether
#

based

radiant chasm
#

Old cold blood worked in my berserker build now it is a strict stealth/precision thing post dlc rework

#

NO IT WAS A GLITCH IM NOT GAAAAAAY

haha oops

#

NOOOOO

#

THE GAME WAS SO BUGGY I DID IT AGAIN BY TOTAL ACCIDENT

radiant chasm
#

Cause reaves did such a good johnny they cut out the 2 other engrams you could have got

frank ether
finite imp
#

STUPID BUGS AND THIS LOOPING GAY SEX SCENE

frank ether
#

its just a shame

#

its still a complete game right now sure

tiny summit
frank ether
#

but just disappointing compared to what it could have been

#

similar to darktide in a sense

radiant chasm
#

I think it was Yorinobu and Blackhand that were gonna be the other engram options you could get

finite imp
#

MY DAD WALKED IN EVERY SINGLE TIME

tiny summit
#

are you surprised when people still buy EA games?

frank ether
#

sure its a finished product mostly

radiant chasm
#

But that was canned

frank ether
#

but still end up wanting more

late hatch
finite imp
finite imp
frank ether
#

including police AI?

frank ether
#

I havent touched 2077 since its release

finite imp
#

But it's not hugely different

frank ether
#

and I saw the trailer for the new DLC

#

Idk if thats free or paid

#

havent checked

finite imp
#

It just feels like something that should have been there to start

tiny summit
#

while I liked its writing, I do dislike how little of the story is of V's own journey of being a Night City Legend. You go in, get a montage of you working through the criminal underworld, get 1 big job and then "oh V you're dying"

finite imp
#

Also becoming a legend apparently means massacring 14 suburban counties worth of people

tiny summit
late hatch
finite imp
#

Yeah V that serial killing mass murderer that does trick shots of people's brains all over the floor. What a lovable guy

#

Someone name a drink after him

tiny summit
finite imp
#

You are literally judge jury and executioner and everyone is like yes a reasonable person would do this type of work we should all look up to them

finite imp
#

It's like everyone is just pretending to like you because they're terrified

#

Your street cred is more just intimidation factor

tiny summit
#

original loot system where you look like a hobo no matter what because of stats

finite imp
#

If you suddenly knew the person you were hanging out with has literally killed hundreds of people with his own hand

#

Idk that would fuck with me

#

Maybe even thousands

#

By end game

#

This one guy

#

Maybe even with a fucking sword

finite imp
#

I'd be like hey I gotta go ttyl

tiny summit
#

also it was very underwhelming of the big corpo relationships. Militech is mentioned how many times? Arasaka is just main campaign. They arent represented at all in the actual world and side missions

frank ether
#

most ppl play V like he/she's a sociopath and npcs are like ''oh V hiii''

finite imp
#

It's just so strange to me Vs aspirations are to become a legend of night city when the main reason anyone liked silver hand was because of his music but no this dude is like I NEED TO TERRORIZE THE CORPOS BRO and all of his friends are like no you fucking idiot be a rockstar

late hatch
#

but it did do futuristic city scape pretty damn well, and the game looks great and runs better than DT with higher settings

finite imp
#

So instead of V taking a lesson from Johnnies tragic downfall with obsession

#

He's like yeah no this is wicked cool I am going to disembowel this entire apartment block

#

Like ????

#

What the fuck does legend in night city mean HIGH KDR?

#

If that's the case the moment anyone is saying they wanna be a legend in night city they might as well tell me Patrick Bateman is their idol

#

THEN WHEN HE ISNT KILLING PEOPLE NON STOP

tiny summit
#

It's called being a good merc! By taking out the corpos- I mean everyone in Night City with a warrant out for them

finite imp
#

HE CRUCIFIES SOMEONE ON TV

#

WOWEE DEE

tiny summit
#

It's just business

finite imp
#

V YOURE THE GUY FOR ME

finite imp
tiny summit
#

Yea man. I needed the street cred, exp and money

finite imp
#

Knife maxxing his way to the top

#

Inhaling shitloads of apazine and decapitating someone in slow motion

#

Just get a ripper doc to uninstall your PTSD

tiny summit
#

Like there is so little actual missions involving making big moves against the big corpos of the world.

finite imp
#

Heya doc my chest cavity is riddled with armor piercing express rounds does this subdermal armor have a manufacturer warranty

finite imp
#

AMAZING

tiny summit
#

Hey man. It's just business

#

Gotta get that street cred

finite imp
#

Bro it's just business builds entire concentration camp and leads people of certain ethnicities to their deaths in battery workshopst they paid me to do this so it's cool

#

None of this is me does a backflip and eviscerates a father of 2

#

I just needed money sets fire to 10 ophsnages in under 12 minutes in a time trial whose 1st place reward is a can of soda

#

The legend of night city sounds like someone batman would beat the living shit out of

Cant have a distopia without shooting orphans for the evilulz

tiny summit
#

no. its not about if, it will always be about how many

wanton dawn
#

You cant shoot too many, otherwise you lose shock value

unreal bone
#

Can this be saved?

#

I would assume yes.

#

Just replaced unarmored and maybe replace Cava?

faint beacon
#

I'd say it wouldn't hurt to replace it with Flak instead of Unarmored and then Pinning Fire I think the blessing is called again? just cause you'll constantly be staggering with the Bolter

#

But yeah that's still a relatively good roll

frank ether
#

you can either swap surgical to pinning and play unga bunga hipfire with exec, or you can swap cavalcade for pinning and play voc/deadshot kind of build

#

a lot of possibilities

tall torrent
# unreal bone

48% collateral can’t open bulwarks in 1 hit I think?

frank ether
#

does colleteral affect that

#

oh it probably does

tall torrent
#

U need at least 52% collateral

faint beacon
#

I could probably whip out my Bolter build real quick and test that to make sure, see if low collat helps or not

#

Oh, it appears my Bolter has 46% On it, I'll test it in the Meatgrinder real quick and see if a shot does stagger bulwarks or not

#

yeah, requires 2+ Hits, so if thats not a huge issue its good unless you really need that stagger on Bulwarks

tall torrent
#

It’s usually pretty important

unreal bone
#

Well my collat isn't perfect oh well

#

what do I do to make it useable

#

until I get a better one

#

what perks/blessings

faint beacon
#

I'd say seeing it requires 2+ hits to stagger Bulwarks probably take the Cav + Pinning route

#

seeing you'll dump more down range quicker

wanton dawn
#

Collateral is a dump stat

#

Here yah go

#

And bolter round have shit stagger below 5 meters.

unreal bone
#

So what do I want on my bolter.

#

Idk how I feel about Cav because the build I am using the bolter on

wanton dawn

Then idk for perk right now

Oh good cavalcade number are so bad KEKW_ogryn

I would say unarmored would be an easy replacement..

But unarmored does actually affect annoying shitheads like Reapers

It is all about bp.

Unarmored is for dreg elite shooter

Was this pant on that cosmetic set for temporary?

Release this

With the previous set

What's the point

Anyway to avoid the gambling system of blessings

they keep giving us the ugly uggs

deft crystal
#

or do i Just upgrade till I get it

terse idol

If you're desperate you can definetly upgrade up to blue

#

But that gets verry very expensive very fast

#

I DONE IT

#

AFTER SO LONG

#

I MANAGED TO PULL OFF THE DAMN 90% ACCURACY PENANCE

#

YAAAAAAAS

#

AFTER SO MUCH PAIN

frank basin
#

Even emperor gift

faint beacon
#

The pain and suffering that is going through the 90% Accuracy penance, feels like a badge of honor once you obtain it

#

that and "On Overwatch"

#

It was fairly easy on assassination mission unloading bolter into the shield, but congrats! 🎉

bitter wolf
#

I never get that far with my ammo!

#

I just use lawbringer's alt fire. Completed it in 1 try.

frank basin
#

When veteran with survivalist join*

agile yew
#

Yeah i had survivalist on my team when i got it, once boss was down, they shot some specials and i kept getting more ammo

frank basin
#

Is annoying for doing that penance

agile yew
#

Its weird Veteran has no Custom Game penance like other classes

#

Just did my Ogryn one the other day, took 2 days to find team for Custom Game, then in intro of mission took me 1min to do it without seeing single enemy

frank basin
#

I think fs has no way to make custom game penance balance and easily obtain

#

They either believe play custom game penance for vet is hard

torn needle

Okay then thanks melk

Because REDACTED penance were a bandaid fix

#

Is legal

#

Is like macro for mouse

#

Client side mod only are allow, and this is client side mod.

#

Is not affect weapon stats or function, it only let you toggle mouse auto repeatedly firing on single shot weapon.

#

So you don’t need click repeatedly; because is tiring to do so.

junior needle
runic hound
#

got my hands on a plasma rifle, now i finally enjoy veteran

its just a tad bit annoying how there isnt a really accurate aiming reticle for the gun

waxen sonnet
#

Yes there is. Its called "Are they in front of me"

runic hound
#

that works as long as the target is not at a distance

#

though its not like my braindead teammates mark further away specials anyways

#

god forbid i take them out before they can become a concern

bitter turtle
#

but plasma is the least fun vet gun

runic hound
waxen sonnet
#

I tire of Bolter Vets tbh

#

Plasma Vets I get because you have a trade off

bitter turtle
#

wdym

waxen sonnet
#

PHENOMENAL DAMAGING POWER!
holy shit I've burned myself

bitter turtle
#

u dont do health dmg to yourself anymore with plasma

#

and you have one gorillion ways to restore toughness

#

just left click spam lmoa

waxen sonnet
#

Bolter is just.. lazy mode

runic hound
bitter turtle
#

and no, charging does not make your shots more accurate

#

all charging does is lower your dps and ammo efficiency (and raise cleave)

#

if you uh

#

needed 300 cleave instead of 100 for some reason

runic hound
bitter turtle
#

like shooting through 7 or more crushers standing in a perfectly straight line

bitter turtle
#

then in that situation you should charge thumbsup_ogryn

#

the thing is

#

the plasma projectile is so fat it doesnt really have any effect

#

idk if you noticed too

waxen sonnet
#

I use the Kantrael XII because I'm a proper guardsman.

bitter turtle
#

the reticle tightens slightly before you shoot even on a left click

#

because left click is still technically charging slightly

runic hound
#

hmmm, i see

junior needle
#

Imagine not replacing the reticle

bitter turtle
#

its why charge speed used to affect left click damage too

junior needle

This comment was made by mod gang

It Is bad?

waxen sonnet
#

Go to bed.

frank basin
#

Kk

forest scaffold
#

nice to guarantee the kills on a train of ragers though

#

not many situations exist that call for charging the plasma gun to 100%, but they are out there.

bitter turtle
#

yeah

#

that's why i pointed out the cleave mostly

#

its the only time you might do it

deft crystal
#

Are veterans capable of melting bosses quickly?

bitter turtle
#

yes

forest scaffold
#

uh. also a kinda thing

#

vets anti boss is more "stick everything in your build to that idea"

#

otherwise just use rashad combat axe

bitter turtle
#

i thought charged shots had better wall penetration but i heard that was not actually true

forest scaffold
#

and bop em in the face a bunch

deft crystal
#

yeah

bitter turtle
#

if you really hate bosses

#

you can always run kraks and stun it for like 10 seconds

#

also deals about 40% of its hp

#

with almost no effort

#

though the downside is you lose shredder nades lol

forest scaffold
#

vet's infinite nade talents need to go

#

Krak grenades are fine on their own

deft crystal
forest scaffold
#

getting one back every 60 seconds is blatantly overpowered

deft crystal
#

lmao

#

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh

bitter turtle
#

well, at the very least, they should move the talent somewhere else

torn needle
#

Overkill damage kyungwalk

bitter turtle
#

part of voc supremacy is having teh best standalone talent in the tree right above it lol

woven tide
#

Just give them ogryn sized grenades

bitter turtle
#

really unfair to the other two skills in pathing

forest scaffold
#

eh

#

I always grab ammo crate/med crate too

#

While me having infinite nades is good

#

everyone having infinite grenades is amazing

bitter turtle
#

i think its hard to call 1 refill infinite tbh

#

not saying field is bad

#

but i'd say its at least comparable to grenadier

deft crystal
#

I feel like all my vet builds lack versatility when i build them

forest scaffold
#

Oh, I always loot the whole map

#

so I find 4-6 crates on average

deft crystal
#

I just want one that can do everything

forest scaffold
#

call me sticky fingers

#

that's split between med/ammo

bitter turtle
#

grenadier +1 nade is actually really impactful with shredder nade since you throw them in pairs

forest scaffold
#

mostly I run crate for @viral wraith though when he's on Ogryn

#

giving him nukes is pogryn

dire olive
deft crystal
#

Did they get rid of the penance where you couldnt miss a shot and not have any ammo remaining?

forest scaffold
forest scaffold
#

its 90% accuracy now

#

instead of 100%

deft crystal
#

OH WTF

woven tide
#

The current meta picks for vet can pretty much deal with all content in the game in general tbh

forest scaffold
#

but the same requirements otherwise

grizzled pebble
forest scaffold
#

I'm 99% sure that's a backronym

deft crystal
#

no no i know tat

forest scaffold
#

Oh

dire olive
bitter turtle
#

yeah its a backronym

deft crystal
#

Really not the columnus?

forest scaffold
#

Voice of Command, Plasma Gun, Mk6 Power Sword or Rashad Combat Axe

bitter turtle
#

pretty much

forest scaffold
#

With the Rashad CA being marginally better than Mk6 power sword

bitter turtle
#

revolver is 2nd after that

dire olive
forest scaffold
#

due to overall mobility

bitter turtle
#

eh, i'd say if you do weapon swap keystone i'd put psword above

woven tide
bitter turtle
#

idk why i said columnus prob cause i was reading lol

#

but the weapon swap keystone really fixes any mobility deficiency on psword

#

idk they're both op anyway

forest scaffold
#

Yeah, talking Psword v Rashad is basically:

"True solo or group play"

#

true solo = rashad

group = ps6

#

And group is also = rashad and ps6, just depends on your personal tastes

deft crystal
#

Never used plasma gun

forest scaffold
#

its uh

deft crystal
#

is it really above autoguns?

forest scaffold
#

really boring to roll on

#

because there's one acceptable blessing combination

#

and everything else bricks it

grizzled pebble
#

It's like revolver on crack. Xd

torn needle
#

It's probablyy better than autoguns but columnus is prettyy close

woven tide
#

It's about the same tier as Columnus

forest scaffold
#

Though, I consider it to have two acceptable blessing combos

torn needle
deft crystal
#

So revolver, or plasma for maelstrom?

dire olive
grizzled pebble
#

My most comfy vet build is standard issue shovel and plasma.

woven tide
#

Plasma

bitter turtle
#

shattering is useless

forest scaffold
dire olive
forest scaffold
#

I like volatile more than gets hot

#

cause gets hot is kinda just throwing dice and hoping you come up yahtzee

#

even with the. . . 20%? base crit chance on plasma

bitter turtle
forest scaffold
#

Its good, cause lol finesse modifiers

bitter turtle
#

how is the thing you're shooting still alive

rotund heart
#

Gets hot is useless when the right Keystone can allow you to store up a guaranteed crit.

forest scaffold
#

oneshot literally everything in the game but bosses

bitter turtle
#

for teammates to be "helping" on

dire olive
dire olive
#

I didn't say it was good

bitter turtle
#

shooting mosntro with plasma is a waste of ammo

forest scaffold
#

gets hot lets you roll crits infinitely basically

deft crystal
#

With the plasma how is ammo managment?

forest scaffold
#

without needing to kill something

forest scaffold
#

so don't shoot adds

#

and you're fine

bitter turtle
forest scaffold
#

elites, specials - stick to those and your ammo is fine

torn needle
#

As long as you don't camp it and shoot trash with it yyou'll be fine with regen aura

bitter turtle
#

you shoot specials and reload afte rthe encounter

#

is already over

#

since the reload is the one thing that takes 10 years on it

#

the clip itself is massive enough toprobably sustain you through most encounters if you stick to specials

forest scaffold
#

with swap swap keystone you outright don't have to reload

#

which is a problem

#

but uh

#

secret sauce razzle dazzle or whatever

deft crystal
#

So instead of VOC should I run ES?

forest scaffold
#

No, run VoC

torn needle
#

Run whatever is more fun they are both good

forest scaffold
#

that's basically just the answer to every problem right now as vet

#

Voice of Command is just. . . better

torn needle
#

VoC is better

forest scaffold
#

we cri

deft crystal
#

It really is lmao

torn needle
#

But who cares

deft crystal
#

Kraks or shredder?

forest scaffold
#

Like, Stealth and Exe Stance are both good

#

but VoC is just better

torn needle
#

Shredders better but kraks are fine too

forest scaffold
#

i like kraks

#

cause begone thot attitude

dire olive
#

If it's with plasma then definitely shredder

forest scaffold
#

I don't wanna waste ammo or time on bulwarks/crushers

bitter turtle
#

i think stealth itself is on par tbh

#

just the pathign is atrocious

forest scaffold
#

that's basically veteran in a nutshell

bitter turtle
#

stealth suffers for smoke nade and survivalist's crimes lol

forest scaffold
#

He has like

#

4 distinct builds

#

and no real good way to flex out of that

#

without abandoning keystones

woven tide
#

Shredder for most cases, but running kraks is fine.

Shredders just have great all round utility that helps you in Auric maelstrom.

forest scaffold
#

But uh

#

I'll let fatshark figure that one out

#

they seem to want this kind of design philosophy for veterino

torn needle
#

How many overheads to kill a crusher with a rashad? Bm and carapce

forest scaffold
#

uh

#

5?

#

I think?

#

It should be 4 or 5, somewhere in there.

bitter turtle
#

mine does it in 4

#

but it can be 5 if yours isnt tricked out enough

deft crystal
#

Chainsword viable?

bitter turtle
#

every melee is viable

forest scaffold
#

yeah

#

one second

bitter turtle
#

i think taxe is the lcosest one to being trash

forest scaffold
bitter turtle
#

but i was doing taxe4 only runs the other day and honestly it was

torn needle
#

What second blessing do you run on rashad?

bitter turtle
#

NOT THE WORST lol

#

feeling thing ever

forest scaffold
#

I'll call this clip a shout for both voice of command and new chainsword

bitter turtle
forest scaffold
#

I really like the new chainsword

bitter turtle
#

unarmored + flak

#

these are all mandatory

forest scaffold
#

its not blatantly busted like rashad/psword

dire olive
#

Tax is kinda ok on melee vet with the finesse boost

forest scaffold
#

its just. . . good

woven tide
#

Mk 4 has a better horde clear combo than the 13 (though it is more complicated than just spamming the key)

13 is still solid though

bitter turtle
#

doing a run where i only used the taxe, no shooting

#

like

torn needle
bitter turtle
#

it felt bad on crushers

deft crystal
#

Can I have someone look at my build in dms. I could use some feedback

forest scaffold
#

tactical axe is better than combat knife

bitter turtle
#

but it didnt feel bad for everything else lol

forest scaffold
#

so its got that going for it

bitter turtle
#

they have flak and unarmored heads

#

you need to be able to kill them in 1 light swing so you can abuse brutal momentum

forest scaffold
#

rashad is:

Headtaker, Brutal Momentum, Flak, Unarmored

#

to hit all of the important osbps

bitter turtle
#

if you are SLIGHTLY short

#

headtaker can help cover the difference

woven tide
#

I'm combat knife gaming over here tbh. Have it on my Gun psyker too whenever I get bored of the dueling sword

bitter turtle
#

but ideally you want to rely on it only for 1 stack at most

deft crystal
#

Alr what about twins hardmode?

forest scaffold
#

fuckin lol

#

I did that on my ogryn

bitter turtle
#

plasma is even more dumb on twins so

forest scaffold
#

fuck doing that on anyone else

bitter turtle
#

since the packs of ragers/crushers are the main problem

forest scaffold
#

Ogryn gaming or bust

bitter turtle
#

so just run plasma meme

dire olive
#

Or revolver

forest scaffold
#

I used thunderous+skullcrusher+nuke on bullgryn

bitter turtle
#

id do swap keystone plasma sword if you're tryharding on it

forest scaffold
#

mash mouse 1, win

bitter turtle
#

lets you stay mobile and clear through nearly everything with ease

#

the definition of Insanity

bitter turtle
#

the groups i did it with had no ogryns KEKW_ogryn

#

so we just had a colu vet and a plasma vet

bitter turtle
#

the other vet was dying a lot so i just let him pick the weapon he preferred to bring

dire olive
#

I played revolver vet and just picked off elites

bitter turtle
#

i wanted to do colu because i fucking hate plasma lmao

#

but he wanted to switch so

forest scaffold
#

plasma is just. . . boring

torn needle
#

Shatter to blaze away?

forest scaffold
#

shoot three times, vent, shoot three times, vent

#

shoot three times, vent, shoot three times, vent

woven tide
#

Plasma is indeed very boring, but damn is it effective

forest scaffold
#

shoot three times, vent, shoot three times, vent

bitter turtle
#

also shot ghosting

#

it doenst feel good to use

forest scaffold
#

Not exactly a brain engaging gameplay loop

forest scaffold
deft crystal

What discord role to be able to post pictures?

next furnace
torn needle
dire olive
#

Another twins tip is definitely bring field improv

bitter turtle
#

dreg gunner is the tricky one to reach

forest scaffold
torn needle
#

If I take longshot though I oshs all ranged elites and specials without maniac

forest scaffold
#

I want my gun to FEEL GOOD while shooting it

bitter turtle
#

yes

#

i like weapons to have tradeoffs and weaknesses

forest scaffold
#

which is why I'm an ogryn main

bitter turtle
#

not

deft crystal
#

Could bolt gun act as a psuedo Plasma?

next furnace
#

who dosnt like shooting a mini sun at heretics

bitter turtle
#

i left click at things 10000x

forest scaffold
#

Dab

#

let me introduce you to

bitter turtle
next furnace
forest scaffold
#

the 150 round magazine on an achlys stubber

bitter turtle
#

what do you mean pseudo plasma

#

bolter is played more like a sniepr rifle right now tbh

next furnace
#

i have 1,5k hours as vet, plasma is fun

bitter turtle
#

you dont hipfire auto it

woven tide
#

These days anyways

dire olive
#

Do I need to fish out my clip of emptying like 400 stubber rounds without reloading

next furnace
#

dont always use it but it is fun

deft crystal
#

As a stand in until I can get a god rolled plasma

#

W 80% everything

forest scaffold
#

bolt gun is unapologetically bad these days

next furnace
forest scaffold
#

the pinning fire nerf really bastardized that weapon

bitter turtle
#

i think its ok if you're willing to sweat

#

and do all the anim cancels

#

lol

next furnace
#

i still get top leader board with it

forest scaffold
bitter turtle
#

but it does feel like bad revolver though yeah

forest scaffold
#

from a revolver and plasma gun to a graia brauto

woven tide
#

Do you use executioners stance with it?

dire olive
forest scaffold
#

^

#

I can faceroll my keyboard and get top score

#

that's not exactly a meaningful metric

dire olive
#

Green circles mean nothing

forest scaffold
#

ehhhhh

#

I wouldn't go that far

#

but its a scale thing

dire olive
#

Average player isn't a no life nerd like us

forest scaffold
#

and also a bunch of other information

next furnace
forest scaffold
#

Like the fact that the bolt gun can os 15 enemies

#

or an mg12 can one shot 40

next furnace
#

all with god roles

forest scaffold
#

without reloading

bitter turtle
#

then ig taxe IV is op KEKW_ogryn

#

dont even need gun!11

next furnace
forest scaffold
#

me using bb mk3 and ripper 5 earlier

next furnace
#

just saying bolter isnt bad

forest scaffold
#

rippers are also unapologetically bad these days

next furnace
#

if u say its bad then skill issue

forest scaffold
#

but I can still faceroll keyboard and top damage with them

deft crystal
#

I got through twins w my bolter because i didnt have a plasma gun

#

OOO IM A CONVICT

forest scaffold
#

Like, I hadn't played darktide in uh

#

two weeks

deft crystal
#

LETS GO REJECTS!!!

forest scaffold
#

and was still able to do this earlier today

#

with the "worst" ogryn gun

#

(I'm try again bragg)

woven tide
#

I can definitely see Boltor being alright for twins if you just want to slam some burst DPS down

#

Nothing much else

bitter turtle
#

twins is the place i probably would NOT use bolter

#

bolter is very much a DMR kind of weapon rn

woven tide
#

Because of the adds?

next furnace
#

its good for twins but the ammo count says otherwise

bitter turtle
#

you snipe with it

#

and sniping

forest scaffold
#

yeah, bolter is an mg12

bitter turtle
#

is not very good in twins

forest scaffold
#

but slower

#

and bigger

bitter turtle
#

cause of the shape of the room and nature of the encounter

woven tide
#

That's fair

forest scaffold
#

not exactly conducive to an open room of death

#

need something more responsive

bitter turtle
#

yeah you're constnatly trying to make space in twins, and a weapon that takes 10 years to swap out and reload unless you perform animation cancels is not the ideal here
