Compared to "2.5%" lmao
Ogryn damage is nice but situational
i used it for some amount of time, it's up every horde lol
and up for like half the hallway fights
Yeah in the situations where high damage is good
remember you don't need coherency for it
if you consider that you get it most when you're doing lots of killing, you get it when things get busy, and then you can use it to kill whatever's attacking you
Nah
For a fair number of weapons its kinda pointless
Its useful if it pushes you over a BP
It’s ok, cuz on avg it procs from 40 kills from ur teammates (anywhere)
It’s not bad by any means
Lol
Oh damn, I thought it was only in coherency
it's everywhere
you get it from any teammate kill
Yeah everywhere
sweet
I dont mind it.
Its not a bad option if neither ogrynd damage nor rending really helps ur build
so that loner zealot might actually help you out
Which is true of a lot of builds
Competitive Edge is also easy to see when it procs
So you don't have the Disrupt Destiny moment
I'm always edging
🤨
Example: My bolter build BPs dont change with 25% oggy dmg
reminder that it's also monstros damage
Ok fair thats nice
on bolter you mag dump bosses anyway, that's a lot of damage
The Oggy node is just wild since all of them are also elites and you have 15% for those, too
So it's really 35% ogryn damage
I take both for the funny damage
little man complex
Which is incredible.
Somehow I don't instant kill reapers with my plasma
we small but we kill big
Veteran is fucking dumb lol
deal with it haters
My helbore also doesnt want ogg damage
We need an enemy Ogryn Specialist.
🧱
A brick
they're too dumb to specialise :)
You might need elite + unyielding perk with tag to 1 tap
throw it at the emperor palace window
Tbf u can beat people up in melee with it
you got a blessing 🙂
Do not worry, Hadron will give you +10% groaner damage from now on instead UwU
Indeed :c
I just pretend that mutie are oggies
I went maniac on my plasma to 1-shot flamers
I need maniac on my power sword to 1tap muties
I wish I could spare for unyielding
It also lets you 1-tap trappers
I found that out the scary way
I don't need anything on my Power Sword because I don't use it
brunt what the fuck is this mobility
I know my Bolter one taps Reapers
Kek
With e stance?
I wanted to build another agrippa and brunt hit me with the 9% mobility
same
Surgical?
Yea
yuh
Hmmm
not xs though
How do I achieve such magic
I have Carapace Unyielding too so
That shouldnt bring 2.2-2.4 up to 4k
I mean if you stack enough headshot damage
on shotties, general consensus on kantrael shotties?
maybe you can?
I like scattershot + flechette
Set everything on fire
Make everyone bleed
im sure you can one shot reaper if you really build around it
I use no Keystones
at 40m out everything is possible 
also kantael shotties always have the lowest ammo capacity, right?
with that I would need to see a clip of you one tapping reapers lel
that doesn't seem enough?
I use Full Bore + No Respite for funny damage
a little bricked ngl 
shit, I might have to sacrifice a bit of my shotty infil talent tree if it meant getting slightly more ammo for kantrael
and I fear that hadron would brick it
that's why I want to rebuild an agrippa shotty
because it has liek 70% stopping power and I'm not sure if I'm too happy with what I got for it
Think of it this way
+10% rending talent value UwU
Ye. Ergo why fireshot good for maximizing ammo efficiency
calc shows 3300~ damage on a crit headshot
without finesse math
because idk how to do it
If u can kill 5 elites with 2 bullets
Can't even kill a groaner 😔
Kanny's low ammo reserve is a non issue
Is this a good base? can I work it into something nice?
groaners really do be the final boss
Mine is fullbore and manstopper
For agri
Incredibly bricked
melk kantrael
change both blessings orrrr?
I'd keep surgical
But idk much about bolters these days
how did you get a t2 on a 380?
imo, I would go Surgical + Pinning Fire
Ungodly hate from Hadron I assume
either that or from bruntshop
honestly
i'd change both blessings to a higher tier surgical and either pinning fire or shattering impact
20% maniac is solid and reload speed isnt the worst thing to have on a boltgun
this is pretty great right? Is this like between columnus mk5 and agri iag?
graia is my favorite one yes
only loses a little dps compared to columnus and has the stability to snipe faraway targets fairly easily
nice, what blessings to go for? Dumdum and?
@serene sage @gusty bison
https://youtu.be/8e6UNbnkv8E
dumdum + firefrenzy/deathspitter for damage
dumdum + stripped down for utility
I need to make one
dumdum + raking fire if you wanna do the back shooting meme
honestly
the 2nd talent isnt that important
blue from brunt
checks out
ok, perks on this one are fine-ish right?
i need to figure out a good graia iag
every one i pick up just feels meh
yes
flaniac good
5% doesnt make a big difference for an automatic
you arent missing any bps
you just shoot
cool, needed a change from columnus
you basically build it the same exact way
im going for agri iag but i haven't rolled a decent one yet
its just more range for a bit less dps
agri can be built like an HH autogun but I think its easier just to play an HH autogun
i remember helping someone test the other day
to oneshot bp gunners you need to jump through a lot of hoops
like
needing kill zone active (no enemy in 8m) level of hoops
ofc you can just build agri like columnus too and it works fine
big E reward, and a comparison to my older shovel
Hey, not a plasma fan but gonna give it a try. Whats the ideal perks and blessings you want to handle maelstorm?
Blessings are surprisingly unimpactful.
I feel like something like Maniac/Unyielding is the way to go on perks but I'm not sure
mmmm then Ill guess ill use what i have
I think of all the blessings, Gets Hot is a bit better than the others
and Blaze Away
left one is best in my opinion
80 damage 80 charge rate 80 stopping power
and yea theyre quite good
sad 5% crit chance perk though
perks are way more important than blessings for plasma
ye
honestly its w/e you want/ w/e youre willing to work with
plasma is right on the edge of a BUNCH of breakpoints and you can push it in a bunch of directions
but youll never get ALL of them
although it's not too big a hassle to just LMB twice generally
Plasma is too efficient
yea its not like the killshot is far behind
imo flak is the best one
bodyshot scab gunners is pretty big
and for me the best part is if your tree is set right you can also two-shot bodyshot maulers
and since they love to pile up
extra emphasis on the plural
I think thats what im asking. what i need for those breakpoints
x stance usually
Use voice and just click an extra time if you need to
yea
thats why its a w/e you wanna do thing

literally the first drop of the day in prime condition for rerolling
nice
Easy game
F
its funny but im not sure which part of me is laughing
The evil part
actually think that stripped/dumdum unyielding and like flak or carapace isnt that bad
yo
h o rny is blocked
really
lmao
stripped down is quite good
its just not damage and for some people that's apparently inexcusable
Stripped down issue is that it is hard to get meaningful value out of it in practice
H0rny jail !
Pnis
Which they are stupid for. But really it's why dmg blessings are bad because everyone just wants dmg
Like how Warframe has how many mods dedicated to just flat out more dmg
Some of them just existing for the sake of existing
Also stripped still got nerfed by losing passive speed boost 
WHAT
stripped down is actually stupid strong
since a) we have duck and dive
you can literally be intangible FOREVER
just keep holding sprint
and b) you recover one entire stamina bar when you are shot by even a single bullet, and yes even if its toughness damage
the game will literally feed you the ability to proc stripped down again the moment it runs out
but yes i do sincerely miss the move speed version of it
i used that shit so much
The thing is: you still recover stamina by dodging or running sideway so you only get value when sprinting into enemy or backward. And you dont shoot while sprinting
Losing speed passive also nerfed melee avoidance
Stripped down, agri IAG, deadshot, duck n dive
Because SOMEONE said it in the wrong chat smh
you dont, unless you have duck and dive
point B is universal for all classes
once they unfuck the stagger bug I guess it becomes slightly less good
which is why i dont even really run duck and dive that much
This is vet chat 
my point is its a good fucking blessing
Lmao
What bug
if youre getting shitfucked in a corner by five gunners you can just press Q and hold shift for a single split second and turn around again to leave
the game will legit give you all the tools to do it
"I love stripping down", said the vet
Not my fault. I blame discord for my skill issue
As you should
you arent meant to get knocked back into totally uninteruptable staggered state by gunners and shit (when you have toughness?)
they fixed it then, unfixed it in a recent patch]
It does help repositioning
is stability important for boltgun?
damn it brunt
Are the headsets that veteran bots wear only for them?
less so with X Stance
I frankly don't know if that's even a bug
yea if you use x stance then the stability is almost whatever
but that sway is hilarious
I thought it was intended that gunners would keep you back so you can't just run into melee in a straight line with toughness
Bolter plays exec stance and deadshot nowadays
Its so fun
Especially on damantion missions with weakened monstrocities
whenever I use bolter I just magdump the nearest crusher
its very theraputic to just
click on the bad dudes slowly one at a time
and it really does have goofy crowd control
hahahaa
you cant say s ex tape
fucken
americans
I can barely aim with the buggy ass ADS it has
may as well just treat it like an oversized videogame autoshotgun against anything close to me
thats silly i sent that to two other people and didnt realize it was still stuck on private
nobody TOLD MEEEE
I recently read that if you ADS/unADS between shots its hacky?
yes it resets some of the visual recoil
I dont fuck with bolter because the animation when you pull it out annoys me on a certain level
but it also cuts down on some surgical ticks
"high functioning auricism" I think its called
Bolter dont need duck n dive: target down is enough to keep your stam fed for deadshot
Veterant? Ulgo has queshion
What's your question ulgo
Go on big man
Do you think trainning lady likes Ogryns?
Of course
Errr... probably, in her own way
After playing bolter it actually feels more balanced
Because you have to give yourself the thought to give yourself the time and space to commit to pulling it out and blasting

just M1 and win
Thanking you veterants
Then swap back
You're welcome champ
kinda wild it only expends three shots for what's basically an oversized quake 2 railgun shot
I was expecting it like 5 or 10 or something
Bolter require some talent optimization to get the best out of it
But honestly ? Feels good to play
Yeah
Still the best sniper weapon imo
I feel like if we balanced plasma gun like it, it would... actually be balanced
Maybe increase the draw speed on plasma and increase ammo consumption big time
Now need the balance and/or removal of VoC and Focus Target and buffing the other 2 skills
it would be more palatable to me if the animation for drawing the bolter was a big labored swing
the charging thing every time is annoying 😮
the bolter needs a damage increase imo
Needs a size increase
Nah, ads bolter does huge dmg
It already 1 taps most things
Comedically size increase
More damage doesnt help it one tap most elites harder
Unless u wanna start 1 tapping crushets or smth
But that requires a ludicrous damage buff
You reach 50%+ crit on ads bolter
bigger ammo pool would be nice
80% if you wait to aim
just less annoying
Thing is already atm its ammo is mostly infinite
It's more so the handling of the bolter compared to every other gun and especially plasma
If ur using it properly
was never a fan of deadshot
huge and fucking clunky
Though I do want bolter to just completely penetrate through a horde
I always liked that part of it
I dunno how to say this
It's odd it doesn't tbh
Bolter problem is that you cannot go melee talent to use it properly: too much required node
you can
The main thing is the hipfire is complete dogshit
It should create holes through poxwalkers
At least on vet
Ill skip the I can do X and just say that the reaon I dont use the bolter is because of the ammo pool and the time to ready it.
On zealot is salvageable
Counterpoint: mag dumping makes joy in my head
just small adjustments to those two things and I would enjoy it
The ammo pool is mostly infinite tbh
thats my bolter tree
Lemme show mine
Well
from the same vid where i was one tapping reapers
I getcha
Braced bolter variant for better full auto spread
But like there is a serious danger of say
and yea the mag dump for vet is just
Making every gun the same
Mhm the 2 tap is ok
actually. I read someone say that they should have made braced autos LMG variants with big mags
i have no evidence but i swear the game cant keep up with the RoF
that would have been so smart
But the ads is just better
and some shots just get ate by already corpsed enemies
Also ur spread is insane
its really just for zealots with chastise
And dance of death
Suddenly u can chain headshots
which is slightly longer than a botler mag lasts
I hate agri braced on vet and love it on zealot
This is only useful for carapace
so yeah
Tbf
so sure, vet and zealot both can kill about the same amount of crushers
That's basically what the braced columnus is atm
but zealot does it in 3s lmao
Yep
with no recourse for ADS use after
Cos zealot can laserbeam headshot while downgrading to flak
Braced weapons on exec stance are great. Don't want to try them without tbh
Never tried brace weapons
see this spread is insane to me
Well, it works for me 
people always say in vet "braced agri with exec" but it sounds like staring into the sun can fortell prophecy to me
you can save on the reload nodes by learning this
yes you can reload it in under 5s this way
for x stance to reproc
Its easy to use
Columnus braced auto with death sitter fire frenzy is pretty fun
Thats its entire thing
Hello fellow guardsmen
agri IAG is easy to use
Which is a perfectly fine thing
and it is the perfect gun in so many situations to me
Yea but if u arent aiming for heads brauto is better
Agreed
The entire premise of brauto on vet is that you arent bothering to aim for heads
@gusty bison
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8e6UNbnkv8E
and this is my evidence for earlier that i forgot to actually list
Brauto is basically going Rambo
I know myself enough to know that i cant be bothered with animation cancel trick
you do need 4 stacks of PF to do it
Ok so it is with exec stance
Ye
Ye i think fox and I thought u meant without x stance
oh no
definitely not without
i tried real hard
its the 25% weakspot that puts it over to do it
And 25% base damage
Feel like I'm not finessemaxxing guns I might aswell play zealot
Ah
even with redirect fire
Vet has better melee buffs
:3
vet is seriously broken
At least more reliable ones
zealot can ramp up hilariously in a fight
but vet is baseline like 70-80% what zealot does in that long fight
Mhm yea zealot has higher peaks
I have found col and grai braced much better than agri
It doesn't reach the highs zealot can reach though
its so dumb
Grai braced rn 
put weapon specialist and momentum side by side
Very consistent
They even buffed it last patch I think and it's still pretty bad imo
grai braced is the only braced gun where I think bracing has a point
Its nice on zealot
Turns into a laserbeam
I'll take your word for it, I'll stick to colomnus
Cos zealot cancels out the sway
im like a bracist
When ur braced
so dont listen ot me XD
you can also eat carapace with brauto on zealot
press f to murder
fury of the faithful is funny
man
Hnnrrnng I hate the brace race
The faster fire rate is cool but it's dps even then isn't very good. I'll actually try on zealot since they get the reduced spread
Both
im really lazy with RPG shit
Kidding
Fat shark doesn't even do that
I wish I enjoyed theorcrafting, its such a drag to my extreme gamerism
He will be the first of many
That are not FS devs
How much fire rate boost can zealot get with fury and momentum?
Vet can get 20% from wep specialist
Iirc
A lot
Idk if chastise affects fire rate or not
Never thought about it too deeply
I rushed guy and it dies
40%
Fury is 10 I think, is momentum 1% per stack? Cause I'd want to test that then with blue juice on grai braced lol
Damn thats crazy
Double what vet van do
fury is more for downgrading armor
Sure but I just want to brrrtt
True
hear them at the last second and have heart attack
You think their suicide bomb will save them from me?
But that'll only happen if they pull a ninja
speaking of audio
Go on
that top of hotfix 31 wasn't "we fixed audio" is one of the things of this time in space
I've been having moments where hounds and mutants sound like they went through puberty twice with their lower pitch
After extensive community feedback about audio issues we've decided to nerf recon lasguns
they also fixed "female cosmetic upper clipping"? but like.. every one of those chem dog sets has totally dogshit shoulderpads that sit out like a dogs testicles
Interesting analogy but yes
They no longer think
I don't blame them
It's begun
how would i do a funny lawbringer manstopper build
Manstopper + Scattershot is how I would do it
i mean in terms of talents
but ye
Ah
thats what i'm going to do
Sadly at work :c
But try to pick up the Ping keystone or Marksmen keystone
Considering Law shotgun + Manstopper wants the funny crits
also stopping power too low orrrr?
find out
see if you can still ADS click shooters in one shot to the head from distance
only really will use it for the funy
and use dclaw for ragers and stuff
Was joking, don't think it can 1-shot them regardless
ah, mb
Even my No Respite + Full bore Kantreal has issues unless they're close :c
Its not PERFECT, thus an insult to the Omnissish's will
Brb holding X on it
wah
Can yall tell whats wrong with this picture? Its not about the missions being organized
A man stopper shotgun is really just a worse plasma gun tbh
You can make it work if you enjoy it but you’ll just be building a plasma vet with extra steps
The silly
Shotguns need another buff. They should be at least powerful enough with optimal perks and blessings to one tap dredge shotgunners
With a body shot
I really don’t want to hear about how you can do it already with a headshot from a couple meters away.
So any suggestions for silly build?
With how fast shotguns shoot thats a bit much
Laspistol Knife for a little silly
Agrivolver and Shovel for a lot silly
I mean funny manstopper lawbringer
Oh
But those are some very silly ideas
lot of interesting difficulties there
Scattershot manstopper
Gotta max that crit
Shotgun + shovel with stealth using the melee tree
What abt talents?
Reload speed is convenient but not super necessary so long as you’re good about regularly reloading when you’re repositioning
Perk or that talent?
Talent
Ye
Would ua and flak be good?
Flak and maniac
(I already have ua on my roll and I’m lazy)
It would but that would be a fully optimized shotgun with max stopping power, damage, and power from perks + blessings.
God rolls should feel godly
Unfortunately the shotgun remains mediocre at B tier
Close to A
Not everything needs to be a plasma
Ye
Its okay
Yeah
I mean this is why balance talk is kinda scuffed
We got two of the best weapons to compare
Pgun ciag
Ofc but it needs to stand out better than just a worse plasma
Mmmm, I love comparing a shotgun to a fucking “plasma gun”
I make the comparison because folks try to build it into one with man stopper and Crit
It’s never going to be match up to it
Without significant changes to the current balance of either weapon
Unless fs completely nerf plasma to recon level
id hope they atleast plan to nerf plasma lights
Recon isn’t as bad as people say
plasma buff and its consequences have been a disaster for sharktide
It really is
Recon requires though that you get headshots using marksman’s focus
It has a high skill ceiling
Recon is """usable""" it's just not competitive at all, which is the reason people dunk on it so badly, because it performs poorly in basically any functional category one would prioritize during weapon choice
I just hate that every gun that isn't an immediate no brainer OP beam of death gets compared to plasma/zarona now and its really tiring me out to hear the same arguments lmao
Recon is prob the lowest dps gun in the game
...well, you have to do that for it to be at least average
oh ye no i get it
people meta chasing is cringe
im usually running shotgun or a braced autogun and clearing dam fine
high skill ceiling is not quite the right term if you're forced to perfectly use it for it to be at least average
Like I have no problem with busted guns but at this point I want those two nerfed so ppl can stop the victim complex
but people are ADAMANT you need the best gear and options at all times
me with my taxe bolter
I can also complete runs using knife special only, that doesn't make it a "good weapon" though respective to others
...not really. Recon has 0 interesting properties. No recoil, unoticiable agility, no cleave
no, but it IS viable, and thats all you need
But ultimately recon's biggest issue isn't even that it's not competitive, it's that it's utterly boring
yeah, the lack of recoil just destroys the skill ceiling aspect of it
it is as point and click as an automatic weapon can be
It’s a very vet trait reliant weapon.
i'm pretty sure fatshark is terrified of nerfs cause then negative reviews get put on the front storepage complaining that power sword went from 8 charged swings to 3
recon lasgun is also one of the guns with the worst synergies with marksman
And inf lasgun
i kinda want em to differentiate the accas more, turn the 6 more into an lmg and 2 more into a dmr so the 3 can stand apart and be good separately
???
it's crits strings got nerfed and it has bad finesse multipliers
Is it?
what is the ??? for
yeeee, its like 0.3 or 0.45 finesse right?
good gun
it is very self-evidently one of the guns that benefits the least from marksman
To get the best out of it kinda
something around that ballpark yeah of like 1.5x
i didn't really look at the damage table to avoid being too sad
Onslaught or smth?
Gun that are not that reliant are columnus iag, plasma and zarona
i have a sheet on my desktop somewhere where i was testing it
its super depressing
Not great on agri brauto imo
What’s the needed talents then?
Agri brauto is great on weapon specialist with exec stance
Never tried it
I use it with Rashad which eats most of my talent points
Lemme get the build
Ty
the best damage table in the world can't help a weapon's handling feeling like an incontinent piss dribble
Real?
in my mind
Smth like this. With some wiggle room on the reach talent
I don't have a single build that touches a keystone anymore ha
The voices tell me to try it
Nothing against the keystones really, I just prioritize other elements
I stole it from someone else
Nice
Was impressed by the perf
Mine seem "fine," by which I mean to say they are in the expected tatters held together by loose duct tape because it's been so long since a proper server refresh
Nah, its the fact that its a lvl 8 ogryn character that can't access most missions yet its shown that most missions were completed on damnation difficulty
it transfered from my veteran lol
lol
specialist exec is a weird combo but yea about as good as it probs gets for brauto
I'm getting a repeated backend error
I'm not getting that
backup your settings file and then verify steam files
It is weird but thats because agri brauto get very little from the other keystone in practice so you just upgrade your melee instead
oh nah that's not a bug, it's just that those mission completion indicator wings are account-wide
And weapon specialist does increase fire speed
just fatshark implementing it in a bad way
trying that now. Forgot to backup tho.
we'll hope for the best
its fine unless u got shit ton of mods
I have a couple but those are pretty easy to configure
smh getting a new character to 30 is annoying as hell
...should I be taking this in context with the convo or is this an entirely new one
yea another combo I like is onslaught focus mark but equally problematic points wise so I agree better to just get passable melee

bastard
I dont value onslaught a lot in practice. Costly to reach, lead nowhere and only really great against crusher
More diversity in enemy types would do a lot honestly
Trying to give MG12 its 1 tap breakpoints without exe stance is actually cancer
I recommend deadshot and the 10% crit node on full ammo to reach 100% crit on special shell spam
60%+25%+10% and base 5%
is it needed with scattershot?
Well, its still 40% crit without scattershot
ah
what should i drop for that?
If you spam special shell you can drop reload speed
Cuz you would only use standard shot under pressure
ig
Maybe i should revisit my lawbringer
extra rld speed is kinda nice
I wish the refresh node for exe stance would be changed to smth like “add 5s to existing duration”
The fact that you need to spend a point to refresh the timer on highlight kill is wack and should be baked in by default
Reload speed applies to special afwik
Really now ?
ye
Ye they changed it in p14
and the highlight ranged enimies
Wiener
Man i missed half the info
Granted those patch were beastly
Yes but the refresh should be changed to “add duration” instead so you end up with greater uptime between killing highlighted targets
wait with just one weapon spec stack ill have 93% crit chance
man thank goodness there are some regular people and not weirdos in this game
"you"
I understand it being refresh cuz on any high intensity damnation mission add duration would mean you would be in exe stance for minutes afterwards with some of those waves, would be nice tho
Unless something else changed weapon spec crit chance applies to the 1st shot only
its not too hard to grab one stack tbh
Given that it turns off the moment you swap to melee I think it needs all the uptime it can get
i have no clue how this works
Yeah, we can block ppl now 
If you have 11 ammo in your shotgun, it applies to shell 11 and 10
Currently, when your ammo in mag >90% total mag size, you get +10% crit chance
It’s a meme node basically
If you’re gonna take this, take the 5% crit chance node instead
It is exploitable with shotgun special shell
It's okay for revolver but it's not good or great
Only at near-max load for not a lot of crit chance difference and doesn’t apply to melee
Meh
Need a single shot laser musket to take advantage
It allows to reach 100% crit
If it worked like applying to any reload (including partial reloads) then it’ll be a lot better
I feel like revolver really does not need this talent to be crit most of the time
Am talking shotgun though
if wishes were horses I'd be playing darkhammer or whatever this game is called 2
For shotgun I think deadshot + scattershot is more than enough tbh
That’s like 90% crit chance already?
i just saw a lvl 978 not taking duty and honour in the mourningstar lmaooo
If weapon specialist on top of that then it’s already >100%
Sure, but that's a easy grab that give you consistent 100% crit on a build that abuse crit
what should i swap for deadshot?
Actually weapon specialist already gives u near 100% crit chance
33% (1 stack)
60% scattershot
5% base crit chance
That’s like 98%?
Which melee are u using
drop iron will because you're a chad who will never get hit (pro gamer)
ck is kinda nice to have imo
Yes
Which shotgun are u using
Kantrael?
I don’t think you’ll be getting as many special/elite kills to be getting as high value out of CK tbh
oh forgot about close order
Oh, make me think, i need to test a theory
i am very silly
guh
i swear im dc'ing more and more each hotfix
mod issue?
likely. i'll have to run through em
Bwahahah, I WAS RIGHT
Taking serrated blade on thunderous rashad increase TTK on at least dreg rager from 4 hit to 3
Because the bleed stack thunderous faster 
how much extra cleave does manstopper give?
off the top of my head, something like +20
enough to hit everything in a patrol line
brain small, how much poxwallker dead
20 extra poxwalkers dead
yey
I am going to try a melee rashad with serrated blade 
also how much hitmass is a reaper
alright check this out
https://youtu.be/7ztDPr-9NQY?t=368 this video claims and seemingly proves almost 100 poxwalkers
Hey guys, it's Swiggs!
Personally, shotguns are my favorite weapon. Not just in Darktide, but across pretty much any game that I can get em in.
But Darktide's shotguns are up there for sure. Brutal blasts that rip apart Poxxies at point blank and reliable enough to go the distance for some frankly ridiculous countersnipes, they are versatile p...
so basically plasma-tier cleave
not sure, i haven't found an up-to-date source after patch 13
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2894619510 this guide says 100 mass, but it pre-dates the talent tree and weapon overhauls
so thats why the agri revi can cleave two groaners
yeah, groaners are made of wet paper so any attack in the game will hit at least 2 of them
did the plague ogryn used to look different?
nah, that's just a really weird and gnarly screencap
ah
but yeah i know at least some parts of this guide is outdated
the darktide calculator says the mk13g chainsword's cleave lights have a value of 4.5
but it can only hit 2 scab bruisers, implying 2 scab bruisers have at least equal to 4.5 mass
What about mk4 cleave heavy?
ah shit hold on i wrote that wrong
the mk4 chainsword heavy has a cleave of 8, and that hits 3 bruisers comfortable from memory
12.5 on gameslantern
the kant with flechette doesn't seem to apply bleed to everything hit
any reason for this
i haven't observed that behavior before
Warp influences (fatshark’s bugs)
oh i had no idea they had an enemy compendium, that solves everything for me
says here scab bruiser mass is 3.5 which tracks with mk13g chainsword light only able to hit 2
Yea
Is shotgun bleed bad?
It sounds rly good but doesn’t do that much in practice
shotgun bleed is strong if you can reliably stack it
it lets you use lawbringer like a kantrael without using the kantrael
could it be its only the ones hit by the projectile?
Basically
If you’re counting on shotgun bleed to kill a lot of things for u, it won’t happen most of the time if your teammates aren’t brain damaged
Yeah teammate take over your kill spot
With their Muh meta weapon
Specially ogryn (archly) stubber
i think that's right, the kantrael fire shell is slightly unique in the way it cleaves
this shouldn't happen with a lawbringer spread shot shell
I thought the dragons breath always had infinite cleave
Just shoot that line without anything
Does Precision Strikes apply to melee damage? I'm building a Commando.
ye
Nice.
Kantrael’s fire dmg also gets buffed by no respite fyi
Which is kinda hilarious
There's more melee focused talents than I have points for. It makes me sad.
Enemy moving count as staggering?
if it makes them stop moving and wince it counts as staggering
Does fire dot crits proc?
i do not believe dots can crit
if you open yourself to the dark powers of smoke grenades and infiltrate, you have enough points to grab every melee talent on the tree (that i can think of)
i don't think its intended
you can also go down krak and VoC, but you are missing just 1 point from getting the overtoughness node
That is unfortunately incorrect. There are 12 useful talents I don't have access to.
I started off making a balanced spread of toughness regeneration, and grenades, but now there's barely anything left for melee damage, and crit chance.
Out for blood as toughness regeneration
fire shells used to go through every wall in the game so you could accidentally hit daemonhosts in the next block over 
lmaooooo (also ignore my disgusting ui)
ahahaha
I'm definitely wanting to use Infiltrate, and back stab everything I see.
Not exactly. More of a berserker that makes everything bleed.
i love you manstopper
Serrated blade?
Serrated blade is super niche tho
Very
This is my current knife. I'm saving up Plasteel to make a few more, and get those sweet IV Blessings.
why and how does it exist
Flesh tearer 
I could run my Chain Axe, but I'd lose the speed boost.
bleed knife? 
bleed grenades? 
mine
Love XII chainaxe
chainaxe melee vet is one of my favorite setups tbh
THESE TWO
are so fun
i use it on my zealot
I'm going to run the Chain Axe this round, and see how it feels.
No, just trying something new.
you're probably in the range of 1 shotting crushers with that chainaxe with a fully charged rev
i wager they'll bleed out if you hit em in the face
One Heavy reved, and one lite is a kill.
My dream rn
On Damnation. Probably one shot on Heresy and below.
took "just a few" hours
My luck is so bad
What’s bp
British Petroleum (break point)
How many hits you need to land to score a kill
It's important for slower weapons
hadron don't wanna give me the thrust 4 otherwise I would go harder for the one shot
which enemies?
The 2 gunners
I don’t care about flamer 1HS as much because I realized I could 2 bodyshot them with this
i'd cope if 1 head 1 body is good enough
I could but
MG1a could hit for like 900 headshot
For the same 1HS + 1 chest result
does mg12 still boast higher unyielding multipliers
So I basically rolled this mg12 to collect dust
Yes
And higher weakpoint multi I believe
On flak it’s like 2.915x
MG1a is 2.615x
inchresting
But the biggest change I want for infantry lasguns is cleave buff
At the very least give MG12 same cleave like Helbore lasguns
i'd like if the mk3 helbore had extra cleave since it's the hardest hitting one
is this even true for power weapons tho
i thought the whole "charged for 1-4 swings" was darktide nonsense
it mostly is
a psword with a power cable attached is not gonna turn off
i headcanon we only receive bargain bin pswords
morrow absolutely has a psword that doesn't turn off
we got them great value power swords
That would be amazing
at least a little cleave so I can shoot thru ogryn's big butts
TIL we are people in high positions 
We are in a high position
Both by the amount of stimm usage and the mountain of corpses we must climb through
in his pants
He should call a doctor if it lasts for more than two hours
||or call me||

Maybe if you stop killing them all
Your teammates will do it
It's like your Mom complaining that you never clean anything and she has to do everything while cleaning the bowl that you are actively eating from 
Twas bolter with 2 other vet
Ammo eater 
smh you let allies get ammo
do better next time Veteran Uwu
also that Vet that took 415 damage and never used a med station
lol
Oh I didn't realize they fixed the magnetism on the IAG's on console
Neat
No more of this then
Idk what you are talking about
what ? THe melee damage on bayonet ? 
the lack of ammo pickups 😔
I though i was at 0. Probably took something by mistake
I'm more impr
Essed
Still shooting my head whilst a meaty steroid man was moving me up and down
jesus lol
"Stamina, Scattering Impact, Volatile" 💪
Hadron has willed it UwU
is flechette and scattershot are gimmick?
Depends on the gun
Flechette apparently doesn’t apply for all enemies hit by kantrael’s fire shot
And relying on the dot to kill a lot of things for u is not good
Lawbringer as example
Works? I guess?
