It's like center of the CS it's weird

#

Aim center mass and you'll probably hit Weakpoint but it Is a small weak spot

midnight totem
#

I always assumed it was its mouth

final stag
#

Yeah that's center mass jfjdjd

#

Cs also move so aggrivaringly awkward that shooting at weakpoint isn't worth
Just unload on the bitch and call it a day

umbral scaffold
final stag
#

That's like a greater daemon

#

We'd be fucked if we faced one (they'd probably shit on us and that would traumatize me)

If some Bretonian nonce could take it I certainly can

final stag
#

Kinda looks like a great unclean one

midnight totem
#

Kidding. It'd probably breathe on me then I'd die of super aids

That's strictly named space marine territory

#

Nah average blokes can kill some pretty gnarly stuff

#

Maybe through sheer luck but whatever

midnight totem
#

Sheer luck, bit of the Emperor's favor, and a lot of cajones

rose ingot
#

Plasma gun any good?

midnight totem
#

Probably best veteran gun

somber axle
#

Honestly yeah it's probably the strongest Vet weapon right now with only maybe the Columnus Infantry Autogun and Agripina Mk II Revolver competing with it

#

I'd still say it's leagues ahead of the revolver too

final stag
#

Competing?

rose ingot
#

That good? Damn

final stag
#

Those guns hardly hold a candle to plasma gun

It's 1st place

2nd place revolver!

somber axle
#

Oh whoops you're right Fierach

#

I got them mixed up

final stag
#

Agri still is sexy

somber axle
#

Zarona Mk II revolver is really, really good and also funny on melee vets who like weapon specialist

final stag
#

Been using the Rashad on my melee vet

Feels so nice to lop off like 3 heads in one swing

midnight totem
#

Agri has that cowboy feel

final stag
#

And I love it

somber axle
#

Quickdraw is funny for Big Iron memes

final stag
#

I think of it like the masterwork pistol
It does dummy damage to bosses

#

I think in my humble opinion it's the best boss dps weapon.

midnight totem
#

I got pissed trying to long distance snipe a sniper or gunner behind cover though

final stag
#

I did it here I think I have a clip fnfn

tame lodge
#

Strap a run and gun to it

final stag

#

I only recently discovered how good the Rashad axe is after playing Zealot a bunch

midnight totem
#

Nice

somber axle
#

I need a good Rashad axe on my Vet

tall torrent
# final stag

Idk if this helps but
If you put HUD scale on lowest (50%), you get smaller crosshairs

midnight totem
#

Not my preferred weapon for it though sadly

final stag
#

Rashad fucks on melee vet fnndnd

tall torrent
#

Made hipfire weapons a lot easier to aim with for me

final stag
#

I don't know if I can do that on Xbox but I'll see later!

#

Thanks bro

midnight totem
#

I've bricked 7 revolvers trying to get a good one with both surgical and hand cannon

final stag
#

Agri wants crucian+handcannon

somber axle
#

Hadron giveth but she mostly taketh away ahri_brick

tall torrent
final stag
#

Unyielding+flak is also perks I try to go with it since it's main purpose in life is to delete big targets hfndn

midnight totem
#

The current one I use has crucial 4 and handcannon 4. It's good enough lol

tall torrent
midnight totem
#

It actually works fine with melee vet anyway since I guarantee first shot crits with weapon specialist

final stag

I love WS

This silly revolver cowboy

#

what are the breakpoints for Lucius mk II ? unarmored, flak, maniac?

somber axle
#

If you use the Scion helmet with the Salvar coat you get something resembling the FNV NCR Rangers

final stag
#

I like the gas mask better fnndbj

It also has resemblance to a ranger

somber axle
#

Gas mask is very nice yeah

final stag
#

I'm a fan of running off meta

final stag
#

I still think @tame minnow should give the agripinaa revolver a little bit of cleave so you can shoot through allies

tall torrent
#

Flak is acceptable but maniac + unarmored is the best all-around for HB2

#

Flak gives u scab rager 1HS

dusty nacelle
#

get rid of the agripinaa revolver entirely and put its fan the hammer on the zarona special attack and give zarona a speedloader reload >:)
cuz it's not good enough already

tall torrent
#

Maniac gives u more consistent trapper 1 hit, 1 crit headshot both flamers, and 2 bayonet weakspot stab mutant

#

It’s just higher value than flak generally speaking

#

Unarmored is for dreg gunner 1HS

Mk14 revolver?

final stag
#

Agri stub revolver

midnight totem
tall torrent
#

All revolver have crit bonus roll

final stag
#

Oh nice

tall torrent
#

Going up to +21% ranged crit chance

#

And enhanced Crit dmg

final stag
#

O h

midnight totem
#

Along with vet inbuilt crit

#

Up to 26 crit base

tall torrent
#

Veteran innate is 5%

final stag
#

No wonder agri deletes bosses quick. It crits all the fucking time in a quick succession

midnight totem
#

31 with the vet crit node

tall torrent
#

Deadshot adds 25% more

final stag
#

Along with handcannon smh

tall torrent
#

So that’s 56%

#

Weapon specialist 1 stack is +33%

#

So that’s 89%

midnight totem
#

Then force a psyker to run crit aura

final stag
#

And crucian which adds another like 5% ever shot

warm olive
final stag
#

So another 5%

split spoke
#

I still wouldn't crit

final stag
#

So after two shots all your shots are guaranteed to crit

tall torrent
#

Crucian IV is 6% for every shot expended

midnight totem
#

Crucian 4 is 6 percent

tall torrent
final stag
#

Ah

#

Still you have a high crit chance regardless fnndnd

tall torrent
#

But it’s generally somewhere in the 60~70% crit chance range

midnight totem
#

Max bonus you can get off it is 24

tall torrent
#

Across all 5 shots

#

So on avg 3/5 shots will crit

final stag
#

That's a lot of crits

tall torrent
#

It’s not as funny as Boltgun zealot but it’s good

final stag

Also if you pause reloading on a zarona

midnight totem

You get the level of Crucian it should be at

austere pine
#

what in the world was this. i played the full match and the "russian" spoke like 3 times total

tall torrent
#

Crucian needs buff still imo

midnight totem
#

Crucian needs to be at least 1 percent per bullet for the headhunters

#

At least 7 or 8 percent on the revolvers

austere pine
#

renegadkaya was the only reason we managed to win. god-tier plasvet, and jesus was just... doing stuff? i dunno. i was doing hammer zealot and they were doing chainsword zealot. no clue what i was doing but even less of a clue what they were doing

Yeah but they have a no witch hunting policy here
I didn't know either lmaoooo

Is there a way to find out what melk and brunt is selling without starting up the game?

midnight totem

Oh

Tech heresy, nevermind then

I'd fear the rejects too

lyric dock

The only reject the Heretics would really fear is a Ogryn and the Zealot

final stag
#

I dunno if I saw some average schmuck lopping off 3 heads then sniping my sniper with a shotgun I'd fear them too

And a psyker is a wizard that makes heads disappear sooo

Cries

rose ingot
#

Tried using the plasma gun a couple runs, I’m not sure I like it much

#

The damage output is decent but aiming it is a pain and the reload is abysmal

lyric dock

It's something you get used to over time with aiming

final stag
rose ingot
#

I got an exalted Columnus, should I try that? I think I read earlier it’s pretty good

final stag
#

It's pretty good. Again at low levels you should try out everything to see what fits your preferences

lyric dock
#

If you ever get a new weapon

#

Take a few moments to play with it in the meat grinder

final stag

^^

lyric dock
#

It'll give you a control space to get a feel for the weapon

Test it's combos and special

lyric dock

Only builds should be thrown out into the real missions HibikiSip

I test builds in real missions without truly testing them because im impatient ntndnd

Thats like the 10th 379 gun I have to throw on my vet coz my blessings are shit 😦

I roll with the punches

I did test out the Rashad with brutal momentum in the meat grinder yesterday because I was like
If this doesn't work in a real game I'll be a REAL liability but it works extremely well

lyric dock
#

These are some of the weapons I have from my Vet that I built over time and gotten lucky with

final stag
#

God how I would love to name my weapons :(

lyric dock
#

I have a mod that lets me name weapons

Helps when you have a big inventory of them so don't sell it off by accident

So true plus it feels badass to have a personal weapon to slay heretics

I’m not sure I know what u mean

Which axe is the best

Rashad mk2

Rashad fhndnd

frank monolith

But it’s pretty hard to roll for on veteran

frank monolith
#

im rolling it for my zealot

#

im going to try to get the perk with crit and brutal momentum on it

#

to see how it feels with charge crit cd or invis crit cd build hehe1

tall torrent
#

Don’t play crits on Rashad

midnight totem
#

god

#

I don't like helbores, but brunt just gave me a 379 helbore 3

with 25 flak base

#

This is from perspective of veteran

tall torrent
midnight totem
#

alas

#

ah well, 25 flak, 25 manic

one of the blessings was no respite 4, the other was falter 2

this is workable

Quick question: How do you build the MK 7 shovel for Vet?

final stag

I've never felt so ruthless than with the Rashad carving through enemies

Feel like a savage fnnend

Thanks!

tall torrent
midnight totem

brutal momentum lets you cleave through the hordes

final stag
#

Yeah fjjd if you hit heads which isn't that hard

lyric dock

Fuck you Hadron

Playing combat axe without BM is just looking to suffer

and if you don't hit heads why are you a vet? just play psyker or zealot

I love how one of the special weapons for veteran is just

Oh yeah here's a shit shovel we found, have fun

frank monolith
tall torrent
somber axle
#

Tbh using a shovel you dig latrines with to fight Poxwalkers probably means the shovel was cleaner before you used it you fight

TLDR in terms of stagger you have no stagger

When in doubt. Cuss Hadron out for results inosukek

hollow ibex

I know Loose Cannon Vet has a voice line talking about how she once dug latrines for the tempestuous scions while going through the sewer map start

You have some really high finesse and works well with crits. Good pen too but horde clear is a struggle lolol

Knife is funni

I would not tell a player who just got his first lv30 character to play knife vet

hollow ibex

Knife best melee

final stag

Same

#

I wouldn't recommend knife to any new players honestly

#

Hell I see new players light spam with the DC against carapace

hollow ibex

Yeah that’s prob true KEKW_ogryn

final stag

And I'm like
Dang. Homies gonna become a mural

final stag

Though if you get good with the knife you feel like a badass too.

hollow ibex
#

Yeah it’s a very rewarding weapon

final stag
#

With how the flip and spin the knife while killing high priority

tame lodge
#

Bring a shovel, to a metal fab, or rockrete streets

#

You know, a pickaxe might be better for some stuff

final stag
#

I like to think my vet isn't fancy with the knife and is just relentless using strength over finesse jfnfn

midnight totem
#

alrighty, I tested out the helbore 3 I got

#

its hard to describe how much dick the melee attack on it sucks

#

I fear it would be very heretical

tame lodge

It goes hard against void shield

#

Bayonet Helbore Mk III is awful and I feel like it is never worth using. Better to swap to melee even with the awful weapon swap speed

#

I only use the Bayonet on the Mk I and Mk II

final stag
#

Bayonet helbore mk3 is why the death korp is known for simply dying stupid bastards fnndnd

#

I feel like the loose cannon would talk shit about most regiments

somber axle
#

I think she makes fun of Cadians for being sad but simultaneously sympathizes with them sometimes

#

I can't think of any other voice lines off of the top of my head making fun of any other regiments

final stag
#

Both male and female counterparts make fun of cadia if a cutthroat and Professional is on the team dnndnd

#

Cutthroat doesn't threaten them however unlike agitator (f) who he threatens when she says if cadia had more faith they'd still be around.

#

I am glad However they cut down how much the cutthroat talks about cadia cause in the beta he spoke about it a tonnnn

somber axle
#

Let them fight. The rest of the rejects can take bets on who will win

dawn garnet
#

idk how it was in beta but i feel like fem cadian has no lines

final stag
#

Fem cadian is missing lines

tame lodge

The agitator wins

dawn garnet
umbral scaffold
#

is a knife build for vet really good?

final stag
#

I also feel like fem cutthroat and fem professional have sole lackluster voice acting

final stag
umbral scaffold
#

so far i've built my main build around support and the grenade regen and it's carried me through every difficulty

final stag
#

Vet has access to high crit and finesse talent

dawn garnet
#

i hope they let you change chars at some point i really regret making male judge zealot and female fem cadian vet

final stag
#

Along with placing brittleness on crits and sequent attacks

dawn garnet

should have been the other way round

Nightmare team composition

Gun build ogryn who can’t melee
Cadian cutthroat veteran with no survivalist aura, using Boltgun (to shoot hordes) and knife
Stealth knife zealot who speedruns 80m ahead of you, ignoring everything
Smite psyker who exclusively uses smite on every enemy regardless of situation and folds in under 2s in melee

“Cadia stands!” Yea bro why’re you running +3 wounds in damnation on veteran then

Loose cannon however are usually great

Some are really good, some are really bad

I've only had them twice and they were the most fun I've had in a match fjndn

Be a based fury martyrdom Rashad enjoyer

Is +65% melee dmg and +50% melee atk speed not good enough

frank monolith

i dont like martyrdom

makes me carry wounds instead of stamina bars

wanton dawn

U can run 2 wound + 1 stam tbh

final stag

I'm simply not based enough 😔

spare marten

is +2 stamina worth using? seems so small

final stag
#

Yes

#

It's well worth

stiff cipher

Thank you for the answer

final stag

Stam and toughness are top priorities for me

spare marten

shoudl you run that on all curios?

wanton dawn

May the holy 🧱 be with ya

final stag

No

+3 stam is worth

stiff cipher
wanton dawn

Honestly though, you can post whatevet

Sometimes we post pokemon

#

At least its in topic

final stag
#

One Stam is good enough

I like having 2 toughness curios along with iron will. Makes you hard to kill

#

One +3 Stam jfjdn

stiff cipher
#

Yeah I’m not sure which stats would be good for a auto gun

wanton dawn

Stopping power, damage, stability, reload speed, mobility in about that order

Horde enemies with armor

final stag

They're mixed with hordes but they have clubs.

frank monolith

can one hit if i crit

tall torrent
#

That’s not good enough

#

You want to hit it regardless of crits

final stag
#

They'll stop your silly little brutal momentum cleave hfjdn

tall torrent
#

Because if u don’t 1 hit them, then BM doesn’t get activated and your horde clear goes from god tier to bottom tier

frank monolith
#

wouldnt flak dmg solve the issue with it

tall torrent
#

There’re 2 bruiser types

#

Scab bruiser wears flak body armor with unarmored head, has 625hp
Dreg bruiser wears flak helmet with unarmored body, has 687.5hp

#

You want to 1 hit both without crits

frank monolith
#

i see t_sad

final stag
#

Wouldn't martyrdom solve the breakpoints bcndnd

tall torrent
#

That’s why the way to go is martyrdom KEKW_ogryn

final stag
#

I haven't used martyrdom Rashad only WS melee infil vet

#

But I feel like marty would dominate with Rashad

tall torrent
#

Lemme show u a clip

final stag
#

Fucking bet

tall torrent
#

I don’t have mods to stack martyrdom in meat grinder

#

But this is about how fast you can swing Rashad with a martyrdom build

#

(Almost all the time)

#

Every swing is 4 kills

final stag
#

And with extra damage from the stacks too make you into an infinite blender

tall torrent
#

Pretty much

final stag
#

Might have to try that sometime

tall torrent
#

With 5 stack martyrdom (and both modifiers), full 5 stacks of sustained fire, and activating fury, you can have:
+65% melee dmg
+50% melee atk speed
+20% TDR

#

If u go top right for blood redemption and second wind for toughness gain

#

Every swing killing 4 gives u 30% toughness

#

Every valid dodge gives u 15% toughness

frank monolith
final stag
#

I only can get like 3 kills per swing with Rashad on vet but I am also releveling homie I'm at level 25 with a 475 power Rashad so not even at its full potential and I was outperforming the zealot

frank monolith
potent iris
#

rashad is busted af so long as you have Brutal momentum and headtaker or similar

#

you don't need martyrdom on it at all

tall torrent
#

Martyrdom makes rolling for headtaker less of a necessity

potent iris
#

martyrdom is just win more

final stag
#

I'm also assuming Rashad would be ASS on psyker

tall torrent
#

“Actually Surprisingly Strong”
Yes

final stag
#

Really?

tall torrent
#

Albeit an axe-toting space magician is a bit goofy in terms of looks

final stag
#

Huh neat

tall torrent
#

Because u can’t get bruiser 1HS without funny dmg stack shenanigans (relying on DD for crucial BM 1 hit breakpoint is a horrible idea)

#

But it still kills poxwalkers and groaners remarkably well

final stag
#

Veteran and zealot just have really dedicated melee builds while psyker requires buffs and crits

Still pretty Funny for a psyker to be wielding and axe like a maniac

tall torrent
#

I haven’t tried momentum with Rashad yet cuz I didn’t roll headtaker on my axe

#

Got thrust instead

final stag
#

I think I got my Rashad from an emperors gift and it had BM and I was like
Eh ill test it.

#

Juggling gun with axe while disappearing and reappearing

#

I'm just a maniac with a gun at that point.

frank monolith
#

also guys if you see a pysker named Rossel can you please take a screen shot of his build since i want to copy it and he is always top dmg in the scoreboard everytime i see him/queue with him even with my plasma vet or knife zealot hehe1

Don’t take kinetic flayer

does run&gun blessing reduce hipfire spread?

somber axle
#

Better utility because shout rez is useful maybe once in a crisis run and saves you like a few seconds vs having Grenade regen lets you use grenades more often for clearing threats and saving team mates more consistently

Plus spamming shout with the greater frequency and wider radius helps your teammates not go down in the first place.

#

Hey all, the Precision Strike talent that gives 30% weak spot dmg - is that for melee too, or just ranged?

#

Considering it's on the ranged side. It seems really nice for a melee combat blade build

tall torrent
# dim edge Hey all, the Precision Strike talent that gives 30% weak spot dmg - is that for ...

It works for both melee & ranged attacks, however weakspot (& crit) dmg calculation is a bit weird in this game (and not in the player’s favour)

Let’s say you have a weapon that does 50 dmg on body hit, 100 dmg on weakspot hit

+30% weakspot dmg would result in 50 + (100-50)x30% = 115 dmg, essentially 15% more dmg from weakspot hits

The actual dmg increase is ALWAYS lower than what the stated number suggests

#

+weakspot (& crit) dmg only applies to the bonus portion of dmg u gain from landing weakspot (& crit) hits compared to normal body hit dmg

#

Also please don’t take inspiring barrage over iron will or demo team

#

I don’t think you really need exhilarating takedown or charismatic, could just go confirmed kill and save some points

#

Opening salvo is a hilariously underpowered talent right now

#

DC7 benefits from Skullcrusher more than thunderstrike since it has multiple strikedowns to maximize single target dmg (for a DC sword that is)

stuck kite
#

Thanks! I was testing Opening Salvo in the Psyk and it seemed good, as in I was able to pop off 9 shots before the effect wore off; but ultimately without it my ammo economy is still even amazing. Also I guess taking it forces you to keep your eye on the ammo count/buff icon so it's a distraction

tall torrent
#

Competitive urge is ok, but for a Laspistol + DC sword loadout I’d personally go with rending strikes due to DC’s weakness to flak armor, and Laspistol’s weakness to maniac

tall torrent
stuck kite
#

If I can get away from Salvo then that's actually really good

tall torrent
#

Usually comp urge is taken as a luxury pick when you’ve finalized your build and have spare points

#

Take iron will instead of inspiring presence

#

Inspiring presence is only coherency toughness regen, which gets very easily disabled in melee combat

#

I’d also recommend superiority complex over shock troop since +15% elite dmg usually gets you a few better breakpoints

#

And las-weapons generally have good enough ammo economy

#

Also, between the eyes is completely redundant on laspistol

#

Because laspistol naturally has suppression immunity

#

Helbore, plasma, Laspistol and shotgun all have built-in suppression immunity

#

You can tank heavy gunner fire and never lose accuracy

#

Go dum dum instead for better dps

#

Mk10 Laspistol also specifically wants flak + unarmored for best possible 1 tap headshot breakpoints

stuck kite
#

These are the only Blessings I can get on the Kantrael Heavy LP: https://imgur.com/RuZTns4 No Born Leader (unfortunately I wanted to make this build centric around the X Heavy, but I'll take on those notes and do some more testing). Thanks again honestly for all the feedback thus far

tall torrent
stuck kite
#

The reason I went Between the Eyes is bc I'm not picking up the Talent for Supression (masochist I know), but I can see why it's useful to swap that out. Better to dodge and kill first anyways

tall torrent
#

Dum dum is just a flat out +30% close ranged dmg (stays at +30% up to 8m, then linear falloff towards 0% at 30m), which starts stacking from the 2nd shot in continuous fire, it’s very strong

tall torrent
stuck kite
#

Very good point

tall torrent
#

They never mention this even lol

#

I’d also say that this build very noticeably lacks anti-carapace power

#

Something to consider

#

And it’s not the best at removing specialists because laspistol has low maniac dmg

#

Mk10 takes like 2~3 headshots against flamers iirc

#

2 if crit

stuck kite
#

So for Carapace enemies, I originally DID have Krak nades on 1m cooldown resupply, but yeah it's not efficient for carapace atm

tall torrent
#

I’d prob experiment with other melee weapons for this build

#

DC swords are good at defense but they don’t have great dmg on offense, and just abysmally low flak dmg

#

You lose almost 70% dmg in cleave when you hit flak armor

#

And you have like no tools to quickly remove crushers or bulwarks in this build

#

DC swords just don’t kill bulwarks all that fast even with frag’s stagger

#

If you want to stick to DC sword, you’re kind of hard locked into a few options for carapace

#

Helbore 3, plasma, boltgun, revolver
Krak (not recommended)
Relying entirely on teammates (also not recommended)

stuck kite
#

Sorry not ignoring you btw, just updating my draft version of this with all your feedback (duped it so I can use it as a staging) and then testing in the Psyk.

I've got a Grey of each melee weapon so I can test them all out. I definitely centralised this around the parrying functionality and Laspistol - but if I see some improvements in other fields RE: melee I might make some alt builds for this. Thank you really, it's fun getting to try new things and finding out some stuff just flat out doesn't work as advertised lol
