Nah, I have demo team. I'm not spending 2 points for stockpile
i'm playing with randoms i need it😂
me too, what solution you find best to deal with hordes ?
Just replace those yeeyee ass perks on the ciag and you're good to go. Also keep in mind that finesse affects attack speed on melee weapons.
Your melee weapon, find one you like and git gud with it.
Oh yeah it's very strong, although I don't like the charging mechanic
I've gotten used to it
how rare is the Cycle IV? I spent billions of plasteel never seen that
Shovel
There's a dude with like 3 full pages of orange power swords who didn't get it
And then you can be like me and get it first try
Cycler had to be specifically buffed to spawn more often before
That's how rare it was
It’s more economical, that’s for sure
Yes
Last upgrade has better upgrades
You're better off going for orange
on vet? melee specialist is the meta slave must-have for revolvers
WS and a decent melee
u need krak too
Kraks aren't for hordes
shredder frag <3
All you need for hordes is a decent melee and good dancing boots
Infil and now it's your team's problem 
i love popping invis and dropping three frags on a horde that wouldve otherwise overwhelmed the team
If I infil in a horde it's to get free charged hits on mixed maulers and ragers
But otherwise it's to help my zealot taunt 
yeah invis underhand grenades are pretty good
for shredders at least, kraks will break stealth once it sticks to something
2 is all you need
With the bleed stacks
true
i reserve 3 for when things are really fucked
though i dont often have that many lying around
demo team will proc trust the rng, throw all 3
Sometimes if I have a spare krak I'll toss it atop a downed teammate who is being hammered on
Throwing a krak won't hurt, it's just very meh for horde
Even if it's not as effective as a shredder drag aoe wise, it will still kill anybody atop it and send the rest stumbling back.
I swear demo team doesn't proc as much as it should
I feel like it procs enough
Or I got a terrible round of luck in a game
I use demo team as my only nade regen on infil and exe builds
Well yea...rng is quite the rng
It could probably help if it isn't already, pseudo-rng. 5% and then slowly as more procs happen it raises its chance
Ogryn should get the ability to throw teammates with different abilities
Though it would make the grenade refill invalidated
Fast ball special
A tactical psyker nuke
Or an ogryn squishing a daemonhost
Displacing allies is room for toxicity 
The rock is strong enough. I have a clip of one DESPAWNING A DAEMON.
Not killing, despawning. It literally stopped existing after the collision.
Found it.
If youre playing auric damn it'll come back up pretty common
Then the emperor really didn't like me that round
Sent to the shadow realm
Back to the warp canonically
😌
Um... where did she go
Ulgo want play as commissar. Know what weapon need talent tree
Laspistol voc mark
I guess
There was a DH that we all saw spawn, I was being mindful of it because we started getting pushed back into it. DH despawned because no one aggroed it and when the horde was over, it was no longer there
No need talent tree not weapon.
Well, what weapon you use
I just said laspistol 
Not care meta care only for roleplay
But need talent tree weapon already done
Lemme check what i can do
Thank you!
I left you with 5 point to do whatever (commissar-like tree)
Ulgo try get that
The what now
The heavier laspistol
Ahhh
I'm trying to roll a good heavy laspistol rn so I can do a true commissar build
I didn't expect it to do damage, but it fucks
I keep getting the stupid back shot perk though
Agreed
laspistol feels super perk reliant
That's good
I dont like ikt
I stole some blessings from my other classes
So do knife. Little knife Ulgo means
Raking fire is honestly pretty damn good on last pistol
You really just want like dum dum
And flak/maniac for perks (I assume)
I don't have a commisar outfit, so I went cadian officer
Went dum dum infernus
Boss grenade
Ulgo only slightly disapointed. Hope they bring more commissar
Infernus kind of whack on the mk10 cause it shoots a lot slower than the old one
My boy is cadian
Carapace damage ?
Fills in well for lack of rpm
What
I may have spent too much time with the plasma
Infernus
Send a screenshot of the damage breakdown please
Ghost is a pretty cool blessing
I just don't see how those 2 relate to infernus ? The problem is that you get the same damage from fire stacks no matter what weapon you use
Or do you mean that crit+ burn kills things which a normal crit doesn't ?
Tbh, it's a bossing thing
Crit already just rips
I don't like the rof on the mk10
I never thought I would like it
May give it another shot
@peak badge imma need you to swap that carapace damage to something that actually doesn anything 
I dont use this pistol I'm trying to get more perks
Ahhhh
Think of it as... a Las revolver
Hunting for t4 blessings ?
Absolutely fair, best chance for t4s
Look into your other ops
But doesn't hit as hard as the revolver. It's a mobile Ia iLas
See if they have some in the melk store
I just feel like moving around with the laspistols feels weird
On crit it does. No one tap crushers though
Best red Commissar I can make without tassles LOL
Mk2 laspistol with MF is actually nice. You can just strafe and hip fire and keep stacks up very easily
Hmm... Ulgo say...
Between The Eyes is completely irrelevant for laspistol
Take your time, Ulgo.
Ulgo fink that...
Don't overheat your bonehead implant buddy
Sir, when did we invite the big man here?
Listen to the furry
Ulgo believes that
Or there's the standard basic black officer
We can't stop ulgo from going anywhere so we just let him do his thing
ADD RED HAT THEN BOOTIFULL
I dont like the red hat with that outfit
Ulgo pop here and there.
And I don't say that often
Wear what want. Ulgo say do what you like
Reasonable, that.
Got a basic cap
And the cadia stands uniform
Ulgo's the very liberating sort, I like that.
Yes ulgo see's
Thank you sah
Do those two caps still make your character bald, unlike the tan one that doesn't for some reason?
Ooohh
Or is your character just a chrome dome?
Penal officer
Me? Ulgo has metal part sometimes yes
Oh I didn't mean you bigman, but that's still quite impressive.
I like that one
THE PLANET FELL BEFORE THE GUARD DID
Thank you!
*broke
Gotta get your catchphrases right, my man.
UwU
Dan be out here hijackin' my look from yesterday
But you get the spirit across guardsman
Outcome: Cadia Go Boom
ULGO GET REFERENCE
If WW2 USA had commissars on the field on the west front
literally the same outfits
Accurate, aye
In rogue trader i made basically the same character too
who was a commissar before becoming rogue trader then joined the inquisition
From rogue trader to inquisition goon, I'd call that a fall from grace
Inquisitors can range from puritan to radical just as the rogue traders do
Oh well yeah, I just assumed you meant in the context of your Darktide character.
darktide came out before rogue trader
so he fell from grace before the start of darktide
then gets accepted back into the inquisition
Ulgo was killing bugs before
then becomes a rogue trader
Damn good work, Ulgo.
The became bodyguard for commissar
Please don't I'm still on chapter one lmao
I got stuck on the chapter 4 boss and now they just did the massive like 12 gb update
I will have to restart chapter 4 it seems
I’m just going to give the game a year or two lol
Chapter 4 so far has been us fighting to get a turn
Whoever gets a turn solo wipes the entire fight
"90% cover + 95% dodge" -> still 95% chance to hit 💪
why does Fatshark mock me with these so often
Save them for when (if) tac axes get buffed
shotgun build...works really nice
@junior needle update, I tried running my game at higher framerate and frame gen def helped a lot. Thx again
seems like if I cap to 60fps it does barely anything
but if I go 90fps it's a lot better
i was hard stuck at like 30 frames and I moved the game to my faster hard drive and immediately got to 60-70fps avg
i think sumn to do with your hdd speed helps with fps
Omfg, i casually broke my elite kill per minute while recording a bolter video 
I have SSD cuz I'm on laptop
Everyone hates taxes hyuck hyuck hyuck
26m game
Best melee weapon is catachan sword change my mind
best defensive melee for sure
btw, which would be generally better on a Columnus IAG build: +5% crit chance or Catch a Breath?
what does ur tree look like
depend. Do you have deadshot ?
If you don't those 5% crit are bonkers
no, I don't have deadshot on my build, but I do have the toughness regain augment of Tag keystone, Out for Blood and Iron Will...
lemme calculate
Don't forget Infernus weapons that set people on fire
Recon rifle with infernus is very nice
Basically a flame thrower
5% crit on columnus increase your effective crit from 11% to 25%
assuming you have no other source of crit
And on columnus, a crit% is roughly equal to dmg%
so yeah, those 5% increase your dps a lot
100% crit possible?
It does not work that way
Confused
Columnus has crit string
Which mean a single crit is equal to 4 crit
It makes thing slighly more complicated to calculate but the base idea is: the first % of crit are more efficient
Ah, it scales your crit
recon lasguns aren't great rn
I still rock it, it works for me
Aldo my phone Finn die
hopefully they get some buffs next patch
btw, I think 71% Stability is not good enough for me to hit heads reliably with Columuns IAG, the recoil is too much...
However, I got very lucky with my Columnus IAG's upgrade rolls, and I don't wanna have to re-grind the plasteel and coins needed to make a better one...
crouching reduces recoil noticeably
really? I thought it only reduces spread, and even then only when crouching in place...
Not quite, they only apply stacks to one target at a time and the damage per stack is nonlinear
there's no ADS spread unless you're being suppressed
and crouching reduces recoil for most weapons where recoil is applicable
u can try crouch spraying a full mag vs standing spraying a full mag, the recoil consistency will be very noticeably different
they buffed crouching for IAGs during a patch
They're objectively quite subpar compared to other guns in terms of dps/ammo efficiency, even compared their closest competitors.
Subjective feelings of usefulness are not terribly reliable, but I'm sure if higher difficulty you'll notice the difference if you use other guns
It is okay with infernus, bolter is arguably better but less forgiving on potato aim
infernus probably also need buffs (separate from recon lasguns)
not much point taking infernus rn
It is free damage, like I always grab the 1 bleed per melee hit
it's free but often meaningless damage
And the 10% rend
and pls don't take serrated blade unless u play knife with mercy killer
1 stack of bleed doesn't matter in 99% situations
bleed needs like 10+ stacks to deal actually tangible damage
Yea but that is easy to reach
serrated blade only exists to enable mercy killer
with frags, yes
wirh serrated blade, no
I dont think I have mercy killer lmao
then don't take serrated blade ever
I am zooming around with a sword and a laser famas just having a good old time
I also run the thing we're you insta resurrect people
When u press f
honestly, if ur having fun that's what matters
I normally just try to follow people and play a support medic
but u should prob try damnation eventually
and rework ur approach to various enemies
Damnation is hard
the only use i can think of for serrated blade is upkeeping Bloodletter stacks on bosses
not really relevant when veteran can stunlock bosses with nade + VoC
1 bloodletter rev is 14 stacks already
otherwise its a meaningless talent
it's just for mercy killer
The catachan sword is big dope tho. I cut thru everyone with that, and I have a thing where it has all the cleave thingies
Is it just me or I cannot get always prepared to work? I mean the extra ammo
wouldnt take mercy killer personally
Yeah idk, the ammo thing is wierd
which one, +25% ammo or keystone modifier
The one where you get ammo on special kills
Keystone modifier
that one regains 3.3% of your missing ammo with every melee kill stack
rounded up
it's good for zarona revolver and shotguns (to an extent)
if you're running exe's stance then it won't work if you ult to swap
it's not really relevant for any other weapon
Voice of cmd
very, the zarona in particular
way better than recon lasgun at the very least lol
Idk, I will look into the specifics more when I get home from work lmao
There is a perk where if you aim for like 2 sec before you fire you get garenteed crit
What is best gun for veteran
revolver/plasma/columnus mk5 IAG
Big iron on his hiiiiiiip
I think bolter is king on fog maelstrom now 
depends on your preference.
easy to use/very high dmg? Plasma.
needs as little upgrades as possible to work at least acceptably? Columnus IAG
Do you guys play damnation
yea
Sedition gamer only
basically exclusively damnation
exclusively auric maelstrom
and you're killing an enemy with melee and then swapping to your ranged right
yeah
That would be why. Also your perception of setting things on fire makes it look like it's doing more than it is. Also, dot effects do considerably reduced damage to carapace
And generally less to flak
the most important part is to have fun though
if you enjoy it theres no reason not to use it
we can tell
you dont even exist
And why are there 40000 of them
This sight is the worst thing to ever exist, and the little wings to the sides showing you your charge are also the worst things to exist.
Time to download mods
Weapon customization mod and crosshair remap mod is what you're after my friend.
came back from 7 hours of driving for work and expected some update...no update
my day is ruined again
I choose to have fun at the expense of other people, that’s why I run the worst setups I possibly can
I hate myself too!
I should be allowed to be the asshole hoovering up the entire maps ammo every once in a while 
I do it because I enjoy it, that's treating myself well
everyone deserves a treat
"out of ammo sounds like a skill issue" I say while taking the big ammo pack for 5 autogun rounds
were you the vet that showed up in my no ammo, melee maelstrom using infiltrate and bolter, with no ammo aura????
and then said dont worry i got regenning nades
I haven't used a bolter since before aurics or maelstroms became a thing
@serene sage that's one dedicated to yah, I had p12 bolter flashback on this one
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25eC9HOnQxk
Hotfix 31 (06/02/24), B-VIII-V-F (Fog, Ranged, Scab, CD reduced)
So possibly
Would not bring bolter in no ammo though
anyone have a weapon swap build they can share?
Not easy to make Ulgo suffer
You mean like a Weapons Specialist build?
Trying Vet for the first time since launch. Played a lot of Zealot recently and I love the chain weapons. I'm trying the tinier chain sword on vet right now and I feel like I'm really liking it a lot
But at the same time I don't just want to use the chainsword on every character I can.
Wait how do you get 20s CD Exec Stance?
20% cd reduction
just played a match with laspistol 2 and it feels dependant on survivor. am i tweaking or is this an actual thing?
from mostly ranged maelstrom
I’m getting better with the plasma gun and I had this situation I’m very proud of. Someone provoked a DH, it killed one teammate, and was about to kill the other unless I shot a charged shot at it immediately. The problem was it was at 100% heat. I did what had to be done.
Survivor?
survivalist now
But yes, laspistols have high damage potential but their ammo efficiency is worse than infantry lasguns
the one that gives more boolets
Conveniently the ammo reserve node is right next to shocktrooper
Laspistol 2 good
You should be taking survivalist anyway 
nay. drugs aura fnuuy
hehe xd
It looks more professional if you don't do the csgo random knife thing
i didnt inspect it mid game
Taking it out and attacking the air for no reason is close enough
movement tech is a reason

i think you know that by now
I do not, I've never seen anyone do that
I assume there is some extremely marginal gain in movement from the lunge
But like, just sprint 
nah
it saves stamina too vs sprinting
holding charged attacks lets you move a lot faster
Truly fascinating
bayonet has a similar gimmick
though much less pronounced
if u see people holding charged attack everywhere on bayonet
Now I can better move ahead of my teammates to try and snipe more kills to make my scoreboard look better
Many paths have opened to me
Worth buying?
Thanks soldier Tier 4 gets hot would’ve been better but I don’t mind I’ve been looking for an 80 damage one
yea thats pretty darn good
shame about the ammo roll but its got usable blessings, 80/76 to boot
Is charge speed important?

it affects uncharged shots too doesnt it
in the past, yes
a bug
not really anymore
i tested and saw a like 1 or 2dmg difference last time i tried
for different charge speeds
like literally 1 or 2 dmg
no i meant the actual delay time
oh really?
yea
i just bought a gray one and it says 0.60s delay on hip fire at 80 charge speed, 78 charge says 0.61s
It affects left click delay before firing (small impact)
You’re looking at usually 40~60ms at most on left click
i was looking at this
i dont notice any difference in practice though
or if there is one its barely anything
trying at 0 and 100 charge speed
Should I use the MK VII devil's claw, or the MK I? I prefer the MK VII's attack patterns a little more since they're about how I use my evis as Zealot, but I'm not sure which is preferable otherwise.
It’s noticeable but usually more of a “feel” thing
Higher charge rate is going to feel more responsive
Use what feels nice for you. Most people prefer the one with horizontal lights and it's first heavy as a strikedown
So no major stat pitfalls in choosing one over the other? Cool.
Can anyone recommend some blessings for it? I've played Zealot recently, but prior to that I haven't played since launch basically.
The devils claws are like only differnent by combat moveset
damage wise they are all very similar
Mk7 is generally considered the better with its multiple strikedown options
mk 1 with zealot toughness on heavy kills is the most braindead clearing
Mk IV gang rise up
rampage and savage sweep for horde clear
Rampage, savage sweep, shred
For mk7 specifically, rampage + Skullcrusher can put up some very impressive numbers due to how many strikedowns you can get in a row with it
Worth for a power sword?
Only if you have nothing better
Yea
It's just better atm in terms of moveset

is this le plasma any good????
Crispy Frie🅱️
That damage tho
This is unsalvageable because of the damage, right?
First 380 I got on any attempt ever. Highest otherwise was 376-ish
Yeah I wouldn’t bother with it unless you’re just rolling for bbl blessings
It's a 380 dude. It's good. It's a low damage weapon too, so the damage stat matters less
Oh yeah?
that's not how that works
See the variation in the detailed stats card
you want damage as high as possible
Take it into the psk and see if it feels bad
I doubt it’s worth rolling a 60 damage weapon
You mean this?
Here's another one with 80 percent damage.
I'm not familiar with how damage stats like this translate to play, 140 for a heavy attack isn't bad, is it?
I just checked in the calculator. The difference between your sword and an 80 damage sword on infested type for a H1 swing is 8 damage
Your sword
80% damage sword
On a headshot you miss 19 damage
Cool, so this actually is a great option then? I'll try Hadron's roulette table on it then.
On a light 1 headshot it's 136 and 143 respectively
It's not going to be GG without 80% damage, the others are right. But it's by no means unusable
Hmm.
Probably devastating strike to rampage & infested to flak 🤔
Though infested could be okay if you plan on shooting all elites
Most of'm, yeah.
I don't have Rampage unlocked yet (Haven't played since Launch, except for the last few days)
Usable but not godroll
Eh u aint gonna be shooting all elites
2.4 damage is not a deal breaker. Conscencrate that to yellow and see if you get something good.
Especially like ragers
I did, peep'm.
I always scroll down on desktop and it doesn't auto scroll, so this always happens to me as I try to catch up on reading 
As a note laspistols are pretty reliant on headshots
If ur bodyspamming ur dps is not that notable
do onslaught apply while enemy burn/bleed or was it fixed?
Patched
Patched awhile back
post gaunt fighting on armageddon from hammer and bolter with the music playing over it
i lost it
Onslaugh doesnt work but thunderous still work. Can be used for silly shredder meme with crusher
might be okay based on breakpoints and what build you use
I'd go do a little testing, tho general rule don't get too obsessed over rating
nah I think it has more than enough cleave for that already
you could run this weapon gray and it woud still chew through infested really well
just use a proper cleave attack pattern I recommend H1+L1 and then repeat for DC7
very easy head level horizontals, for trash that is not densely packed you can just spam lights ofc
quick question do vets get kant shotgun?
Yes
thanks dood
this procced by gun?
this good build for kant + caxe?
not so sure if i still need reload speed with the keystone
Does the Cleave Targets matter on Psword 6 with Sunder?
its not bad in theory but in my view you are missing out on a few things
this is the build i run as CQC
pretty inconsequential
on special attacks, 10.9 cleave at 60% cleave targets and 11.7 cleave at 80% cleave targets
Personally infiltrate brings more to the table when it comes to CQC but voice of command is more generalist so that is really up to you how you prefer to play
sweet, ty 😄
My build is more on movement and mobility alongside dmg buffs
if i run caxe why do i need the brittleness node
why need the +20 stamina on melee spec?
no ammo aura?
how come?
Caxe deals great dmg when activating its special, but not all the times you will be able to do it so i took it to give its base attacks a bit of more power, also helps the team dmg on single targets as the brittleness you apply also helps them
The stamina node when activating talent special is so you can sprint or push so it gives you some CC or mobility
The ammo aura for is not useful in this scenario as the kant shotgun is quite ammo efficiant if built correctly
So far +600k dockets lost without power cycler, this blessing is cursed
in this one session
doesn't caxe 3 hit all man size stuff
3 hit gunners
2 hit bruisers and below
yes and no
depending on witch mark of the caxe and its stats + difficulity
godrolled caxe of course
hold on
lemme show u
something like that
this on my zealot
ohh you ment combat axe
thought you ment chain axe 😄
ah, yeah i see people usually call chain axe chaxe and combat axe caxe
so yeah i was wondering how come take brittleness
so for comat axe
no need take brittleness?
@pastel lark
coming with a clip in a sec i have a similar axe
this is why i take brittleness
my singe dmg went from 847 to 876
its not much but to me if i can shave off a mit for HP with 1 hit it means less work in the end
this is my axe
and my shotgun
can yo utest with 80 pen, if it will reduce thresholds also
its not mandatory try it and if you see results roll with it
also how come for this one? ^
sorry, very broken english

Infiltrate gives you mobility, extra dmg and allows you to move unnoticed due to the talents i chose
it allows you to kill priority targets, kill monsters quicker because of the extra dmg
it also allows for team play, revive,take out of net,complete obj while remaining in stealth
Voice of command same utilize as “give me breathing room” or get over toughness in certain situations
exactly
thats why i said is more of generalist not directed for something
dont get me wrong Voice of command is good but infiltrate is more useful if you play it right
Not a fan of Infiltration. I use just try clutch get teammate revive.
i tend to be the team monster killer and obj guy so maybe thats why it fits more for me 🙂
after listening to you
Voc allow you to push special, ignore corruption from buster, push green boss, push green crusher, with lower cd and point investment

why this one ?
you said don't need survivalist
so i went with ms 
i don't think 5% hits any thresholds right?

but the middle one is dmg to you and allies 👀
What have you made this man do kradd ?!
i broke the lad
Fr
he lost the plot
You killed the recruit
His blood is on your hand
he really might actually 👀
my dude thats a bit toooo much movement speed and it will not benefit you that much 😦
He’s going veteran knife
but 5% damage is literally useless
you said no point in survivalist
i can be the wind

That looks like a zealot build 

exactly what i was thinking 
it is

You are a discount zealot
wish.com zealot
Go join Scrier gaze psyker
Indeed
zealot doesnt have that high of uh, gun crit chance.
man you do you see if it works but i don't think it will
Zealot is speedy
btw is the run speed for all classes the same?
i know some base dr values like while spriting and while sliding is different for all the classes
I felt ogryn is bit or quite slow
Zealot very fast, second fastest class in the game after ogryn
base stats no they are all different afaik
Speedier. Speed aura is bad zealot aura cuz it does not make you faster (than your team)
With the speed built on zealot make go faster
I tried with Eviscerator feel speedy on run with I forgot the talent 10% move speed
Fast zealot need to leave teammates in the dust. And shroudfield away to bring those four advanced packs to their mates
Lol yeah
@frank basin i remembered that i just made a build yesterday with voice of command
1 shot commander build
Except I don’t use shroudfield
whats the minimum range for 20% inc ?
Close range is 7-8 meter
it's 8-30m
for 20% i remeber something like 25m
oh yeah i wanted to play the 1 tap volvo build on vet as well
This is my reaction
When they changed down 8 meter
From 15
I think
built it for when i can stay in the back and relax while some1 else is the frontliner 😄
Then chaff enemy sneaks up behind you
but with this one, you literally can't move right
also can't pierce bulwark
you can
you have to crouch walk
Be crabteran
exactly 😄
so if crowd comes onto you need to headshot like 4 peeps again?
no weapon pierces bulwark shield if thats what you ment
but it can kill about 2-3 enemys in a line before disappearing
wait volvo cleave is only 3?
essentially
from what i tested thats about right
somewhere in the range of 6 or 7.5 cleave i forgor
just that enemies have >1 hitmass
i see
my voidstrike does

technically kant does as well
\
🛌
wait if you cleave, does it count as one guy or 3 guys. for the node
for this keystone
counts as 3 guys if all 3 are headshots
so with a well placed shot you can get 6 or more stacks
i see but you will become a literal turtle
just that the turtle's back has a .50 bmg
at least with staffs i can slide cancel and can still dodge to reposition / dodge gunfire
hmmm.
lore wise what is the difference? @pastel lark
One's an officer, one isn't
I rate marksman focus pretty low compared to focus target. Getting meaningful value from the former is an ordeal
Ones an NCO promotion because of recognized value, the other might be more akin to being in a special regiment like the famed Cadian 8th, drastically different background choices
exactly what i wanted 😄
Also FT has better synergy with deadshot
what leads to me going to the special regiment
i read on reddit veteran is like you go through many battles?
like literal war experience
yep besically
Could be you were directly recruited into it, or that your regiment overtime earned status through famous deeds, or after a deployment your wounded regiment was merged with a famous one to reinforce numbers
Yet we all end up as rejects convicts fighting nasty ass nurgle zombies
so if i am an edgy 12 year old that wants to be cool i would pick the NCO?
Yes that is what veteran means, and for the Guard, that could me anything from surviving your first 48 (15 actually) hours or to having a long list of deployments
48h seems generous
Woops, it’s 15
It’s been awhile since I read that book
does the background
change any voice lines?
my head cannon is that veterans are more gruff but nco sounds cooler due to to position
sorry im an edgy 12 year old mentally
forgib
Supposedly it influences what your character reacts to in terms of other rejects and environment
But it’s hard to tell since there’s no measurement and I don’t think people have data mined how it works
im expecting nco to have more boring lines?
but theres the possibility that veterans just rambles about his past war experience
Prob affect melkman ?
hard to choose
I think so
That's just Cadia voice
It’s unmeasurable, because most of your lines are gonna be affected by the personality you choose at the end
Or cadia
yeah i hate the cadia one
loose cannon sounds fucking funny LOL
i like loose cannon
fits my head canon of the character as welll
Like the whole 3 Vets are like
Professional: By the Book ahead of his class Vet
Cutthroat: Scarred from fighting for his life on Cadia, pretty elite
Loose Cannon: Professional dope™️, Kicks ass but is a dick head to cope
Better than SeVeR tHe HeAd
I don't even know if like the planet combo actually affects, it, any lines in particular?
Is sever the head professional
idk whichever one says that line has so much cringe lines
i think professional is the most popular one yes?
cadia is the most annoying one
Sorry I called you cringe
Male yes. Have female
I meant its the coolest one
Cutthroat has great voice of command lines
Loose cannon has the ha ha funny lines
Female pro sounds angry all the time
One is good enough to be special forces
The other showed aptitude to be an NCO
Female pro also has some kickass voc delivery
It's like
Being good enough in Cadia, through battle
To be part of the Cadian 8th
Vs showing apptitude in training to be bumped up to NCO
My friend had hilarious comparison of the female loose cannon sounding like lesbian truck driver
Not even necessarily aptitude
I feel the name "field promotion" implies the next person just died so they were who was left over to take it
Hmm
sevwah the hewd
the bwody dwies
Well, I mean if anything I guess that goes with Loose cannon
Who's most likely closest to be, the guy who got field promoted
Eyup
Again I like to head canon that Loose canon could lead a squad to victory even though his squad would look like shit during inspection
Loose cannon is the "does the work but bitches the way through" kind of guy
what does my base skill do
I like to believe that Loose Cannon fragged their sarge for their position if they were to be field promoted
Hmm, I think he'd be too lazy for that 😌
Loose cannon is bitter, not a traitor
Yeah
Again, like, at least the way I see it, he's on-par with Professional AND Cutthroat, and that's big shoes to fill
He's good, real good
Is loose cannon voice fit as mercenary characteristic?
He’s sound like not speak professionally naming enemies
Loose cannon is the "I know what a fucked up situation this is so I might as well try to enjoy it I guess" voice
Naw, he's like that like, Honestly I mean (I'm pretty basic on military/marine memes)
He's like E7 Mafia personified
As far as I can understand
Right
I picked professional try fitting my mercenary character
He’s sound like regular soldier when he’s calling out enemies names codex
Oh well
All veteran guardsmen characters have gone through guard training, it just didn't stick that well with the loose cannon
Loose cannon is the perfect combo of the tired grunt with cant/dont care attitude
well the codes, at the very least, the training itself kept 'em aliive
Nah just sheer luck
Like the one time I switched seats with one guardsmen and he got sniped from the trenches
Cut throat is latent psychopath
And LC is also one of the few voices that sometimes snaps back at the mission handlers, here when Hadron talks about a bunch of hab blocks being reassigned to factory duties
His attitude doesn’t care but he still have little heart
It just depends how you head canon em
I don't think any training can help you from surviving artillery barrage or machinegun nests if you're storming in
The cadian shouty?
Also another Loose Cannon classic
What is he rambling about?
He sometimes responds with that if a zealot starts talking about trusting in the God-Emperor
The Empra clearly saved him by using his platoon's blood to hide his body from evil

Loose cannon trolling zealot is great
because somehow being a heretic causes your nose to rot off XDDD
Lmao
Nah, the Moebian 6th cut their own noses off, it's not rot
why though
To make their faces look like skulls
they are cosplaying fallout ghouls too hard
Note that they've also ripped part of their lips off
Would be cool to see mobians to get some blooded squad inspired units
I like my nose, I will keep it
right where it should be like the empra ......
I run wrath
Ah, I meant attack combos
Doesn't appear to be a straightforward "only sweeps" and "only singles" chain there
Like the other chainsword
Xiig heavy attack is all overhead
I still like xiig despite light attack spam i done
I forgot what push attack like? Stab?
I've been doing push-attack > light 2 > heavy 3/light 3 for wave clear, it's okay but feels a bit janky
it's a horizontal sweep
You could do that
I think just spam the light attack on xiig that’s what i do
And dodge
I find it can be a bit awkward for stuff like wrath/rampage, easy to miss the push and ruin the stacks
Yeah just spam the light attack
Is does sound like turn brain off
That’s what it is

Play too much ogryn, always want to spam as many heavies as I can
Gotta unlearn that habit
Using slab shield?
Yep. Prett much everything tbh
Lol
Only two weapons that spam lights are bull butcher and XVI(?) shovel (the blue one)
Everything else is just
Tape down left mouse button and hold w
especially with thrust
and crunch
the mk VI? that thing is super underrated
It's not bad at all, it's probably the fastest trash mulcher ogryn has
Fr
On the level of zealot eviscerator
The only thing is that ogryn doesn't really need more waveclear, and it struggles against carapace unlike mk IV
Yeah
So it's not that it's bad, more like it's unnecessary
Carapace is worse for krouk knife
I like thrust and the blessing that lets you ignore hit mass on fully charged attacks
pair that with the uninterruptible heavies talent and crunch/batter and hot damn
Mk VI go brr
Indeed
Right
bull butcher and mk IV are pretty much ready to go out of the box no matter what build you use them on
I use them for my gunlugger because they're very competent with nearly no investment
Mk VI on the other hand really asks you to invest in your heavies
The cleaver crowd control light attack pattern already good for horde but slight bad against carapace
Heh, bit of an understatement there haha. They plink off crushers
Man, being playing nothing but maximum grenade build and no other build ever come close.
Bull Butcher is for poxwalkers, groaners, and roamers. Everything else, there's Mastercard™️ Gorgonum, my beloved
I know right? Smoke grenade spam is absolutely game-breaking.
As in, your teammates will keep kicking you out of your matches
It makes for extremely cool Valkyrie extraction cutscenes when you have raytracing and volumetric clouds on extreme.
Worth tbh
Me on lowest so i can get a stable fps in hordes
Same tbh 
Is deadshot any good at all? I’d love to use it but losing that stamina is a bit much.
Not good on high rof weapon
People see is worth on Columnus IAG using stamina curio
We're still a long ways off from practical runtime raytracing methinks. Especially since it's one of the things where you pretty much can't have too many rays
Yes I can see that.
Shame, because seeing the ingame lights reflecting off your catachan blade in real time looks sooooo good
But stuff like that isn't worth the ~40fps hit
Would it work well with the Boltgun? Me thinks it would be good for Orthus
It's one of the most impactful talents in the game both in benefits and costs. I definitely have a lot of trouble unlearning the habit of ADS'ing automatically. ADS becomes a very specific tool instead of just a thing you do while shooting
For boltgun yeah. To play on twin boss; I think not.
I use Graia brauto dakka shoota
Having 3x+12% stamina regen perks, a +3 stamina curio, and that .25s stamina regen cooldown talent in the marksman (and melee vet) path helps a lot. Kind of easy to accidentally find yourself in the middle of a horde with no stamina, otherwise.
It's also probably the only talent in the game where running +2 stamina perk on a ranged weapon actually might make sense, lol.
Have fun talk. I’m going sleep
night!
Wait holy fuck I think I found something
Ok I’m 90 percent sure Fatshark used the same textures as Valve did with HL2
But dont quote me on that
This isn’t the channel to chat about it tho
Wouldn't surprise me. Gamedev is full of reused assets. Not every artist wants to keep remaking new grass and metal textures for every single game
There’s that
CW//Gore referenced
||And then there’s using an actual corpse as a reference||
Deadshot good on bolter. Bolter not good on twins
Ashley pfp makes this image hit a bit different tbqh 
Should I post my findings in #darktide-pics-vids ?
I know this style...

Eh, idk, seems like it would violate rule 3-4
Repost because it might confuse the Ashley stuff going on-
This was requested a few times; collection of quotes heard when quelling high amounts of Peril as Psyker.
Enjoy!

Are we allowed to contact mods about questions?
Grats on the plasma, looks great!
The stats, I mean. I don't know why plasma gun with a stock looks so cursed to me...
i just like butts tocks
Fellas
I have a question
What would you think if we got an dual wielding varient of the laspistol
Like you just use two at the same time instead of one
so very ironic actually
more common on sound design
also movies too
I'm not sure lol but I know what you're talking about
not even more memorable stuff like that but even something as simple as
a gun sound or a creaky door opening
like the goofy yell?
creaky doors i think i've heard only one that gets remastered into something a bit different every time
I was surprised to not see the original Goofy Yell by itself in a video on Youtube, so I put it up myself.
yes. when like somebody falls from something or whatever
wait maybe
Might be thinking of this one too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PP7WJL2JtLs
it is the one i was thinking about but i'm fairly certain i heard it be called something else
YES THAT'S IT
i got confused
ah, so it was just the AAAAH and not a yeahuhuhu lol
see also, howie scream https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUTe2ndjRew
i think i remember this from l4d
also, this. melk offering interesting stuff today
It's okay, but not outstanding. Getting Headtaker IV is probably going to be the best use of it
i actually also got decent contracts
funnily enough, the worst one is the no death one
which is also not garbo
low finesse and meh perks and blessings. its ok but i wouldnt buy unless you really want to try one out and have lots of milkybucks
this is my ideal week
i actually burned a lot of melkduds tonight
3k on a lame plasma, but that got me "gets hot iv" which resulted in the plama i posted earlier
2.5k for my first actually alright flamer, though it's just one flame stack short of max
and another 2.5k on my ogryn for a shovel to finally bank bromentum for it
still fine. what diff do you play on? a lot of these things you only really notice playing HIST
last night i was finally brave enough to jump into a regular damnation on vet, I did just fine. Not quite sure about my offensive stuff, but I've got a more supportive tanky build anyway
I'll not complain about "not being a burden to the squad"
to be fair i should have been on damnation a long time ago, i bet
playing hist feels like a self-inflicted warcrime or sexual assault whenever i end up in a mission
it's actually so stressful
yeah, it was honestly not qutie the confidence that was holding me back, but not wanting the stress of it
normal damn feels chill once you get used to HIST
i mean i just did a low intensity shock trooper gauntlet on heresy and was like "where is everyone?"
I play damn when im drunk or stoned. Aurics or maelstrom when I really wanna play
