Quad vet is either the most fun u can have in a random QP lobby or the worst mission you’ve ever played on this game

Yeah. I'm still malding I can do it on my vet and not my zealot -_-

It feels good to have 4 vets

Is this any good I'm not experienced with the laspistol

#

Was the carapace damage to try and roll a better perk during crafting?

peak badge
#

na it just seemed like what it needed when I tried it out in the test chamber

junior needle
#

Most guns do comparatively very little damage to carapace, and so you get massively worse value by taking a carapace perk

#

That's one of the guns that does little damage to carapace

#

What was it previously?

hows this melk shotty?

You didn't really miss out then, you'd want that gone either way. But to be honest you started with a 4/4 scuffer so you're gonna have to settle.

No Respite + Full Bore is what I aim for on Kantreal

Uh, your best bet to salvage is likely carapace>flak or maniac and between the eyes>dumdum (which is bugged and much better than it seems)

#

sounds good I dont have any other laspistol perks so I'll just save the gun for now

#

If I take dumdum off of this can I put it on a Columnus? I always get super confused what does and doesn't share blessings.

I should read the comments pogryn my bad

Lol

Same

junior needle
#

Yeah blessings are shared in the family

#

The forge world "agri, columnus" is irrelevant and the type "laspistol, infantry autogun, braced autogun" are what matter for blessings

muted knot
#

Don't do it bro

#

That thing is great

#

Agri Iag is like really satisfying

junior needle
#

Agri iag is fine, ciag has notably higher dps potential though

#

But it's very possibly gonna get tuned soon

#

Or you know they might just let it sit like that for over half a year, they did it with the autopistol

yeah I bought it, going to let it sit for a while.. good point about potential nerf.

why is it when i play vet, the team always has an ammo aura. but when i play ogryn and need the aura, no one plays it. just homebrew stealth melee vets in auric damnation, with the entire team having red ammo lol

#

it sucks that vet is basically an ammo aura because yhou better be the best goddamn player in the world if you're not gonna run that + voc

#

I post my zealot stuff in here cuz zealot chat is an experience

finite imp
#

i went in there to ask for a zealot knife build and they were like we dont have any

#

and i was like yeah the ogryns probably have better zealot builds than yall

#

and that got what i wanted

I asked about TH rolls once and they just chanted stuff like "purge the heretics" at me instead of providing any info

# deft crystal knife build?

The build I was running wasn't really catered to the knife, rather i only used it when I needed to defend myself but if you want to have a build that works well with the knife then you can use a wep spec build

#

I was using a mf build due to having the vraks 7

finite imp
#

i love doing a drive by backstab on a mutant

so funny

if you think about it a live service video game is really just early acces but long term

blissful flame
#

recently came back after going on a hiatus before the big glass rework in october. just got a vet to 30, and the emperor blessed me with a decent axe, but i'm looking for tips on how it could be improved

finite imp
#

well first off welcome

#

2ndly it's not a knife

#

3rdly tho that's already a great axe

blissful flame
#

it's a big, right-angle knife

finite imp
#

change your perks to 25 dmg flak and 25 dmg maniac

blissful flame
#

indeed, it's served me well, but since i haven't done any crafting on it, i'm wondering if it can be improved. I got head-taker 4 banked, but i feel like i might be better off replacing both perks

#

and i see you agree as well

finite imp
#

oh shit is that a fucking 1 tier BM

#

lol i have never seen that blessing

#

how did that spawn on a 373

blissful flame
#

i got it as a blue, i think, but i can't tell you if that was the blessing already there, or having it appear when i concecrated it

#

but from what i see, BM tiers just increase weakspot damage, which means the perks would probably make a more reliable difference

finite imp
#

it deff was

#

its in slot 1

blissful flame
#

also as a shouty vet, my curios are currently invested into toughness, even though i previously had invested in HP. Toughness seems to be working well for me that way

#

drat, even with the flack bonus, it looks like i'm literally 1-2 damage short of the breakpoint for the tougher melee scabs on the initial light swing

trim steppe
blissful flame
#

certainly plenty good to use while i try for an even better roll downt he line

terse idol
#

cough

#

they're really good but also, kinda painful to minxmax

blissful flame
#

rashad mk 2 i assume? My zealot has a decent one too

frank ether
#

I think my account is just cursed

blissful flame
#

i'm gonna sacrifice one of my zealot's axes to have a brutal momentum stocked

soft blade
blissful flame
#

it's another decent axe, +25 flac and maniac, headtaker 4 and BM 3

#

but it's on a 359 antax v, with most of the dump on damage

#

and seeing as we do have a knife expert in here, what's the preferred dump stat on a knife? I usually hear mobility for most weapons, but an advantage of the knife is mobility

also

is stability a dump stat on the infantry lasguns

#

got this from emprah

#

blissful flame
#

i'd imagine mobility would be, cause you're already kinda slow holding those aren't you?

terse idol

I'd mess with low stability

bitter turtle

hm

#

honestly

#

i barely notice a difference

setting it to 80

its a dump stat, there's no difference from what i can tell

its a pretty solid weapon id say

Is there an efficient way to farm blessings?
I want to get Power Cycler for my Power Sword.

austere mica
#

Suffering

#

suffering is the optimal farming strategy

#

Being real though I got mine by just upgrading ps6's and checking melk every so often

#

Items with a higher rating have a higher chance so I think upgrading perks and blessings before rolling Ascendent helps a bit

finite imp
#

You want to get power cycler for your power sword. Next you'll ask me what blessings to put on your plasma gun

#

And then I will finally lose the plot

#

My grip will slip

I'm guessing finesse is the low priority?

ITS A KNIFE

#

WHAT

#

MOBILITY IS YOUR DUMP STAT

Every weapon with finesse wants finesse

The appeal of the knife IS THE FINESSE

solemn jay

I don't know the desirable stats

bitter turtle
bitter turtle
#

first target is pretty damn important

#

i would not use that one

finite imp
#

Baka

solemn jay
#

so, first target, finesse, and damage?

bitter turtle
#

i dont know if i'd say even decent

muted knot
bitter turtle
#

first target is literally the biggest damage loss

finite imp
#

The knife yearns for all 3 damage stats

solemn jay
#

interesting

blissful flame
bitter turtle
#

vs every other stat

#

even moreso than damage

finite imp
bitter turtle
#

obv only applies to the first target, but for an anti-elite weapon, i'd say the loss is painful

#

for me to just keep rolling

muted knot
finite imp
#

Yeah the big attraction to the knife is the whole being able to ignore the tank armor your enemy is wearing

it's not letting me. I'm assuming as a newbie, i'm blocked from direct uploads?

Trying to find an answer for you

finite imp
#

It is it I've seen the problem before

#

Shouldn't the bot give him a role

blissful flame
#

i'm an initiate, does that not count?

finite imp
#

Maybe there's like a button you need to push

#

No you need to be a convict

#

Quick go kill one of your elderly neighbors and call the cops on yourself

#

That should do it

blissful flame
#

i might settle for just telling my boss "no" once, that'll do it too

finite imp
#

When you joined the server did it make you read any rules or something

finite imp
#

I'm going to accept it at face value

blissful flame
#

yep, read the rules, selected 3 of the roles you can see me have, and stuff

finite imp
#

Or you're military

blissful flame
#

and i was more alluding to the "insubordination" charge a darktide convict could have

finite imp
#

Oh

#

I thought you had a super cool job

#

Welp

blissful flame
#

well, if you buy lipstick from a certain department store online, odds are very good I'll be involved it it getting to you one way or another

finite imp
#

<@&735928989146939404> is there something specific this guy needs to do to get a role? It's been over a year since I joined so I cannot remember

finite imp

raw steppe
#

you have to have joined the discord

#

for more than a day

#

lol

junior needle
# solemn jay I'm guessing finesse is the low priority?

Finesse is attack speed on melee weapons (quite important) and also crit/weakspot damage (important on knife because high finesse modifiers). Overall quite important. They're a bit hard to roll because you actually have 4 important stats you want near max and then not dump mobility too hard.

both are ideal, but either is good

scarlet smelt
#

Can I save this

soft blade
#

just harvest hit and run off it

sharp ember
# scarlet smelt Can I save this

it would’ve been a non-standard setup but you could’ve swapped sprint and punishing salvo, and still have a CIAG with every refinement being useful

#

unyielding would absolutely mulch monsters

#

and hit n run protects you from gunfire while mowing down aggressively at short range

#

It just wouldn’t be the typical Flak + Maniac setup so watch out for the extra kill time on specials

scarlet smelt
#

dont really like hit n run I'd rather much prefer stripped down

sharp ember
#

fair enough

#

I got a bit of a soft spot for Unyielding perk when I don’t run a melee that particularly excels at boss killing

#

on guns anyway

thick rose
#

what do I want on an agrip shotgun?

wicked zenith
#

Honestly, I feel every build I run has to have Percision Strikes, Superiority complex, Bring it down, Rending Strikes. None of the Keystones seem worth anything in auric. If I use Deadshot, I also feel I need to grab both Stam Regen Boosts.

#

@thick rose If you are slug shooting, see how close you are to one-shoting stuff. If you are barely out of reach of a Crusher/Mauler Caraspace, Most of the Maniacs it should headshot kill, Flak for the one Rager/Body shots on a Mauler, Unyeilding for two orgyns.

thick rose
#

is scattershot good on agrip?

#

err

#

I mean

#

fullbore

serene sage
#

Fullbore is a must imo

wicked zenith
#

Full Bore for slugs.

serene sage
#

it synergizes well with both slug and ADS normal shots

#

there is almost no reason not to run it 😄

wicked zenith
#

Honestly the new Stub Revovler besides hitting snipers just feels so much better then the Agrip shotgun now. The reload is so much quicker.

gaunt hinge
#

The new revolver I just use like a pocket bolter

#

Just quickly magdump a mauler

wicked zenith
#

If you get a good Rending/Crit one it can two shot (head) Maulers with Stance up, or even crushers if both crit.

gaunt hinge
#

I use shout with it

wicked zenith
#

Most people use the overpower shout, it's way way stronger than the others. Will probably be nerfed at some point.

dusty sluice

Fartshit need to change that tbh

so you have effective <1.5s of firing after you swap, alt fire and aim

dusty sluice

Yeah

#

I’m using dclaw btw

the what

dusty sluice
#

Devils claw

that the weird light attack sequence catachan sword?

dusty sluice

Dclaw iv is very nice

isnt it wide wide overhead?

and then heavies are 2 wides

dusty sluice

That’s mk1

stone dome
#

ah, whats on 4?

blissful flame
#

i haven't invested in a proper sword, aside from the mk3 power sword

stone dome
#

i only have a decent example of mk1, mk4 is an eluve dingus that never rolls over 60% for me

dusty sluice
#

Epic reply fail

blissful flame
#

most of them I just never really liked the movesets that tend to mix wide swings with strikedowns

#

that, and i'm addicted to killing stuff in one swing, so axes and power swords for me

stone dome
# dusty sluice

assuming you do light light heavy for hordes and heavy light for single target?

dusty sluice
#

And l3 Just feels like the rest tbh

stone dome
elder fiber
#

l1 h2 for horde and h1 block cancel for single target

dusty sluice
#

Or parry cancel

frank ether
#

d.claw is cool once you learn it

dusty sluice
#

As after parry it’s a strikedown

dusty sluice
frank ether
#

I dont suffer an aneurysm playing d.claw unlike chswords

dusty sluice
#

Mk7 is weird

frank ether
#

7 is the most complicated one

#

but its easy to cleave hordes with

blissful flame
#

come to think of it, I got the achievement for 15 consecutive t3 missions without beign downed, but only ever did one t4 mission. I probably can move up, but i've just never quite been in the mood for the expected stress of it

stone dome
#

mk4 is great on zealot at least with crits, on vet i just rather use axes/ps/knife

dusty sluice
dusty sluice
#

Parry chains into sweep too right?

stone dome
frank ether
#

I swap between them too often lol

dusty sluice
frank ether
#

but 7 is the one I use a lot and either push attack light spam for single target or the heavy 2 into weakspot is what I tend to do

dusty sluice
#

Also savage sweep is very fun on dclaw

#

But not the best compared to shred

frank ether
#

get rampage proc with H1 and then slam whatever needs killing with H2

stone dome
#

light spam is great on chains provided you got attack speed bonuses

frank ether
#

so easy to get procs

#

compared to chsword with its yee yee ass diagonals

dusty sluice
#

And shred for zealot

frank ether
#

sweep+rampage

#

I like that they work on same condition

dusty sluice
#

This is my vets one

frank ether
#

but shred is probably better on chsword

#

or if your playstyle just involves a lot of light spam

stone dome
#

btw, doesn't onslaught stack up more damage% than rampage? why do people prefer rampage?

dusty sluice
frank ether
#

I do H1+L1 on claw7

#

horizontal sweeps all day

dusty sluice
#

Against non flak

#

And just not the best for meele imo

stone dome
frank ether
dusty sluice
stone dome
#

blessing, +7% dmg per kill, stacks 5 times on t3

frank ether
#

that sounds like slaughterer

#

swords dont get that

stone dome
#

oh whoops

dusty sluice
#

This is all dclaw gets

stone dome
#

ps has it at least, don't(or didn't) chains have it aswell?

frank ether
#

yes slaughterer is cool but its not available for claw or chsword

#

so your only damage option is rampage

#

imo this holds back chainswords a lot

stone dome
#

huh

dusty sluice
#

And shred ig

stone dome
dusty sluice
#

I would say it’s rampage + svg sweep or shred

#

And skullcrusher if your memeing

frank ether
#

I dont think vet synergizes with crits as good as zealot does

stone dome
#

run and gun on chans when

They both are just a solution to generating grenades at the end of the day

#

Precision strikes is just more damage if you hit the head, and deadshot is more crits for free

#

both good things

# clear narwhal Precision strikes is just more damage if you hit the head, and deadshot is more ...

So the issue with precision strikes is that weakspot damage only works on the bonus damage of the weakspot hit, and not the whole damage. So that damage boost on this gun only applies to 54 damage.

It's very low value on guns that have low finesse modifiers, which is the BAG's at a 1.3 modifier.

Deadshot is an unusual choice for brautos due to large stamina drain but you may find it more tolerable with stripped down/dnd/the natural hipfiring capability of the agri.

#

It's also quite hard to reliably hit weakspots on purpose with the guns

#

Further reducing the value.

clear narwhal
#

The weakspot hits are fairly reliable on bosses and larger enemies

junior needle
#

Bosses and larger enemies

clear narwhal
#

if you know the spray pattern of the Agripinaa, you can still hit headshots on smaller enemies

junior needle
#

Which lowers the general value.

clear narwhal
#

what would you suggest instead of Precision strikes?

#

Also, don't forget it applies to melee too, meaning you can do serious damage with the power sword push attack

#

1-2 crusher is gone

junior needle
#

Can happen and "happens often enough to justify this talent" are different things. Also yes that's true. But the same thing with weakspot damage applies to that.

Ultimately I would never suggest taking precision on bags due to very finesse modifiers and the comparative lack of headshot reliability due to their hipfiring/braced nature. Taking it for your melee is fine if you think it justifies the expenditure.

Longshot is more for helping to retain your close range killing power at longer ranges. Without rending taken into account you can just consider it as countering falloff. With rending it's just a damage boost.

#

If you really want to blast things in the face, take marksman (not the keystone) with that point instead.

#

20% power on all weakspot hits for 10s.

tiny summit
#

Seeing brautos referred to bags feels wrong

clear narwhal
#

Is the 20% power really more effective than 30% damage?

junior needle
#

Very important distinction

clear narwhal
#

ok, but is Power 20% damage?

#

or is that subject to some modifiers as well

junior needle
#

20% damage, cleave, and stagger

tiny summit
#

Thing is for that line of talents, if you want to get to ammo or elite dmg, deadshot and suppression immunity also aren't nice with brautos

junior needle
#

Weakspot and crit damage only work off the bonus damage of weakspot hits/crits, which makes them strictly worse than damage and their value vary drastically.

clear narwhal
#

Deadshot is good imo

thick rose
#

hrmmmm

junior needle
#

It is good, but weapon particular

clear narwhal
#

The sway reduction can be very handy and the crit chance can proc some good crit chains

junior needle
#

Not as good as on IAG's due to the low crit modifier though.

clear narwhal
#

Probably, but I'm not using an IAG

tiny summit
junior needle
#

Mhm, hence why it's an unusual pick

clear narwhal
#

Well if it's a good perk, then it can be good on multiple weapons

junior needle
#

You could also take the 10% toughness dr node

#

It is good on multiple weapons, but generally much worse on automatics

tiny summit
#

If things are dead, less worry about DR chadgryn

junior needle
#

Also, even with a similar rate of fire, deadshot is much better on ciag than recon 6d

#

Due to the crit damage difference

#

(and overall performance difference but we'll ignore that for now)

clear narwhal
#

Well, ideally you'll not be using it all the time, you can go back and forth between hipfiring for casual killing, and ADS when you need something dead quick or if it's at mid range

tiny summit
#

I don't value bracing the agri that much

#

But maybe that's because I haven't put enough time in

clear narwhal
#

It has a more dependable spray pattern when you brace it

tiny summit
#

Disagree

clear narwhal
#

can let you easily get kills on specialists or elites at range quickly

junior needle
#

You wanna stop/crouch/brace for the best ranged bracing performance

#

It hipfires in bursts quite well up to midrange
