veteran-class

[balmy flume]

Oh my.
Loyalist Mobian drip looks proper good

[somber axle]

YEAH

The Vet got such a good look

[balmy flume]

If the colour is green looking I might even don that with the Scion helm

[somber axle]

OH I HADN'T THOUGHT OF THAT

it could look so good with the Scion helmet wow

[balmy flume]

Bein’ a loyalist whilst looking every part the bad guy XD

And it’s earnable! Time to enjoy some Damnation grind XD

[somber axle]

What kinds of penances do you think they'll add

I hope it isn't something like "last one standing" type things

Be the only reject alive for 5 minutes on a Damnation mission

People will throw purposely to attempt it if they do

[last parcel]

bring 2 medkits and 2 ammo crates to the valkyrie

[somber axle]

YESSSS

[tame lodge]

"Requisition"

[somber axle]

It happens a lot with teams I play with that'll be cake

[last parcel]

so you’re the one not dropping the crates

[low yacht]

If you need ammo use it

Only person you don't have to worry about usually is the psyker

When it comes to ammo

[last parcel]

unless it’s me

[somber axle]

[last parcel]

the recon psyker

[somber axle]

I forgor

Usually I ping ammo and tell people if I found an ammo pack somewhere if I notice someone on yellow or orange ammo

Most of the time people don't even notice

[low yacht]

I'm always looting

But usually I don't see people focus elites and I want to cry

[somber axle]

I did point out ammo for a plasma vet on yellow ammo who stood next to the ammo tin and began pinging it over and over to make me pick it up instead LMFAO

[last parcel]

and then they have the gall to spam I NEED AMMO one minute later

[somber axle]

The only people I fear with ammo are Gunlugger Ogryns who play like a baby Vet. No melee, only gun

3 Gunlugger Ogryns in a squad is my nightmare

[low yacht]

Shield ogryn and I still lose.

[somber axle]

They will block every sight line, consume every ammo tin and pack

[low yacht]

This is why I use bully club and kickback

[winter grove]

Patch when

[last parcel]

patch your mouth with my nuts lmao

[tall torrent]

I’ve resorted to calling them T’augryn

[winter grove]

😬

I've done some taugryning

[lost canyon]

yo havent played since the vet stuff happened. did they ever go back and buff/ fix shit?

[winter grove]

[last parcel]

maybe check tomorrow when the patch gets released

[winter grove]

^

[somber axle]

Wait what Vet stuff happened

[last parcel]

prob referring to the talent tree stuff

[terse idol]

woah new drip?

[last parcel]

coming tomorrow

[tall torrent]

It’s peak

[terse idol]

[terse idol]

Oh yah tuesdaay

[tall torrent]

All 4 Moebian 6th armors are peak

[terse idol]

[tall torrent]

Ogryn no clear look rn but I’m afraid all of them are peak

[terse idol]

I'll fuck with these

[tall torrent]

Zealot

Veteran

Psyker

[winter grove]

Carapace armor for rejects real?

[winter grove]

He got dem cyberpunk shades

[tall torrent]

Pretty sure these are still flak Armor
But I dig how they look

I’ve been wanting actual full body Armor for veteran for months and we finally get unique full body Armor

[winter grove]

Looks kinda rough for the flak

[tall torrent]

The veteran torso plate is very similar to scab gunner vest

[winter grove]

Oh veteran sure

He gets best flak armor because guard and carapace don't mix

[tall torrent]

Zealot & psyker also get flak Armor

I’m wondering how the Moebian 6th armor is gonna pair with scion helm in terms of looks

[winter grove]

Funny how 6th uses accurate krieg gas masks while we don't

Except for the green eyes

[tall torrent]

Moebian 6th Armor just seems entirely grey/blue rn

[terse idol]

Uh

I mean the krieg masks we got

are accurate

They are literally approved by GW

It honestly shows the stark contrast between standard krieg troopers

[winter grove]

Ah

[terse idol]

Yeah it's the whole

[winter grove]

Me dumb

[terse idol]

Surplus nature of it

Naw naw

It's not known

It's jsut another like visual take on the whole military scarcity issue

Like in ww2, many uniforms were repurposed from dead troops, sewn up and given to new recruits

Krieg can't exactly supply the greatest looking things to everyone, they just gotta use what they got

(Maybe I'm coping but I like the contrast between the two helmets we get)

[tall torrent]

I’m gonna run cutthroat with Moebian armor and scion helm voice changer

Probably

[winter grove]

Honestly darktide krieg gas masks look like soviet GP-5s

[tall torrent]

Cutthroat is 3/10 imo

[terse idol]

I like that look

[winter grove]

Just without filters

[tall torrent]

However cutthroat with scion helm is 8/10

[terse idol]

Or well we got the 2nd helmet style too

[winter grove]

More of a loose cannon fan myself

[tall torrent]

Cutthroat with scion helm however actually goes unbelievably hard

[winter grove]

Armageddon outfit tho 🔥

[winter grove]

I don't have scion helmet sadly

[tall torrent]

His whiny voicelines come off more as rageful and less like whining

[umbral garnet]

I just want them to fix the helmet smh smh

[winter grove]

But god damn it goes hard

[umbral garnet]

Ah, I love it when people go "Woah that thing outfit is old as hell"

I'm just glad they're finally letting us change our character much more thoroughly.

[terse idol]

What do they need fixed?

[umbral garnet]

Have the visor extend slightly further down, that's basically it.

[terse idol]

I think they're fine for the purpose of what it's trying to tell us

Oh

[umbral garnet]

Looks more menacing.

[terse idol]

https://tenor.com/view/bayonet-warhammer40k-death-korps-of-krieg-equip-bayonet-i-make-ready-gif-26550076

[winter grove]

The vet gas mask still goes unbelievably hard

I forgot what's it's called

The one on cover art

[umbral garnet]

I ALSO SAW THEY'RE ADDING THE FUCKING COVER ART ARMOUR

[somber axle]

It's not available in game yet sadly

[umbral garnet]

GOD BLESS

[somber axle]

WAIT THEY ARE??

YESSSSS

[umbral garnet]

YES

[winter grove]

GOD BLESS

[somber axle]

FINALLY

I NEED THAT HELMET

[umbral garnet]

Something along the lines of "Reject armour present in promotional material."

[somber axle]

I want the goggles so bad

[umbral garnet]

WE CAN FINALLY BE THE POSTER BOYS, LADS

[winter grove]

I even probably have perfect build to put full poster art outfit on

I've been running build with mk12 chainaxe and mg4 with almost unlimited ammo

[somber axle]

https://tenor.com/view/darktide-veteran-psyker-warhammer-40k-gif-9253053506377376083

[winter grove]

So I just hold down LMB with full auto mod

[umbral garnet]

I'm using Chainsword 12 with MG Ia

[winter grove]

I also use knife mk3 and mg Ia on different build

[umbral garnet]

No longer will we sit with the SHIT that is that stupid fucking mock helmet trying to be this.

[winter grove]

Which is more headshotting oriented

[somber axle]

Darktide Vet in the cover outfit gives Resident Evil Hunk vibes

[winter grove]

And Hunk is fucking cool

[somber axle]

https://tenor.com/view/resident-evil-4-resident-evil-resident-evil-4-remake-hunk-mercenaries-gif-11547606927109089646

[umbral garnet]

I just want them to add bolter pistols to make the Commissar dream come true.

[winter grove]

It's coming 16th of April right?

[umbral garnet]

POWER SWORD, BOLTER PISTOL

[somber axle]

Tomorrow

[umbral garnet]

FIGHT OR ANSWER TO ME

[winter grove]

It's already 16th for me

[umbral garnet]

Same here.

[last parcel]

try being swedish next time

[somber axle]

Yeah so whenever it is the 16th in Fatshark land

[umbral garnet]

We just wait for the Americans to get updated y'know.

Typical Yankees.

Behind on everything.

[somber axle]

Gonna swap all my curios to sprint efficiency so I can keep up with you brb

[umbral garnet]

It's no use, I will go KNIFE ZEALOT

I jest, I have no Zealot character. Yet.

I've only played Psyker and Vet.

[somber axle]

Zealot is so speedy with a Momentum focused build wow

Very funny

[umbral garnet]

I spectated a Zealot in melee and I was fucking awestruck at the chainsword melee speed.

[winter grove]

My whole grind for gas mask helmet was futile because they're adding poster boy helmet tmr 💔

[umbral garnet]

Not Evic, normal ones.

[somber axle]

Yeah the normal chainsword goes FAST

[umbral garnet]

I WANT THEM TO ADD THE KRIEG OUTFIT BACK I DIDN'T GET IT

LET IT GO INTO ROTATION DAMNIT

[somber axle]

They'll probably make that a prerequisite to earning the proper gas mask helmet tbh

[umbral garnet]

AND GIVE ME MY ARMAGEDDON HELMET, I DON'T WANT THIS POT HELM

[tall torrent]

I wonder how many new rewards I can claim right off the bat tmr

With my 2260 penance points

[umbral garnet]

So true.

[winter grove]

Wonder if we're getting any storm trooper armor

[tall torrent]

I have a feeling that the Moebian 6th & cover art armor sets will be from penances tho, instead of the progression track

[winter grove]

Thinking not since they're carapace(?)

[umbral garnet]

I'm pretty sure a Scion backpack was datamined at some point.

[faint beacon]

Clicking to me right now how much we'll probably fly through getting out of the new Penaces, and all the stupid things we can just instantly get cause of it

[umbral garnet]

I want Scion armour to go with that helmet, ugh.

[umbral garnet]

Likely.

I just want them to put either the krieg outfit or armegeddon helmet into rotation in the shop so I can fix my Steel Legion outfit.

The pot helm is great and all but it's not the THING

[winter grove]

Scab Shooter watching a Moebian 6th guardsman running at him full speed

[umbral garnet]

With Stripped down.

CIAG

"I'm coming for that ass, boy."

[winter grove]

What was the blessing that gives you movement speed for sp attack on chainswords

[umbral garnet]

Rev Up.

I think.

[tall torrent]

Battle hardened Moebian 6th lasman when they see a dude wearing scion helm dash towards him with a knife:

[winter grove]

Coming for that ass with Rev Up 4

[tall torrent]

However

Loyalist Moebian 6th armor means

You’ll prob get accidentally shot by ur teammates

[winter grove]

As if friendly fire was a thing

...You know they could add it

[umbral garnet]

"We added friendly fire along with the armour that makes you look like enemy shooters, enjoy!"

[tame lodge]

Force of Habit you know

[winter grove]

Does ogryns get moebian 6th armor too?

[umbral garnet]

They get Moebian 7th

'Cus they're big.

[tall torrent]

Yes

[winter grove]

Right

[tall torrent]

But no clear look in the trailer

It’s full body Armor tho

Moebian 6th armor is just full body armor in grey/blue

[winter grove]

Sorry for shooting, couldn't tell you apart from the enemy
Veteran to Ogryn conversation

[winter grove]

Are poster cosmetics confirmed in trailer?

[umbral garnet]

Official Steam announcement.

[tall torrent]

It’s been confirmed in their blogs

[winter grove]

I didn't read them

LET'S FUCKING GO

I did have some theory why we weren't getting the poster art cosmetics

As in they're THE rejects

[umbral garnet]

This is definitely a fanservice update. That poster armour and character changer were huge gripes I kept seeing be thrown around.

[winter grove]

Best out of the everyone else

They've even got specific regument number(?)

[umbral garnet]

Now WE'RE the real deal, BITCH

[winter grove]

Their armor got 73-7 written while everyone else gets 7-7

[tame lodge]

Finally able to walk around as Jilande

[tall torrent]

Yk there’re actually 2 sets of poster art cosmetics right

For each class

[umbral garnet]

True!

[winter grove]

What

[tall torrent]

Like when u go into character creator

For veteran / zealot / psyker

[winter grove]

Ohhh right

[tall torrent]

There’s male & female model

They wear different stuff

Ogryn is just 1 set

[winter grove]

So basically zealot finally gets good head cosmetics that aren't eyepatches

[tall torrent]

Zealot book backpack is coming

[winter grove]

When I played zealot the only head cosmetic I actually use is eye patch or the eyepatch and blue hood

The others are... You know

Black hood and eye patch is good too I just didn't unlock it

[tame lodge]

They are inspired by Redemptionists

The cowls, I mean

Hide your face and stuff like that

[winter grove]

I'd prefer not look like gachimuchi character still

[tame lodge]

Lmao

Understandable

[winter grove]

Honestly with the way I made my character appearances I can't really imagine them with different voices, although we'll get to change them

[tame lodge]

Only my zealot will be changed

[tall torrent]

My current plan is
Veteran: Professional -> Cutthroat
Psyker: Savant -> Seer
Zealot: Judge -> Fanatic
Ogryn: Brawler -> Bully

If the Moebian armor looks good with the voice charger headgears

[tame lodge]

I am expecting an influx of cutthroats

[winter grove]

I am running
Veteran - Loose Cannon M
Zealot - Fanatic M
Psyker - Loner M + Savant F
Ogryn - Guardian(?)

And I really don't plan changing at all

[tall torrent]

Almost every cutthroat I’ve queued into were pretty bad

The only decent ones wore scion helmets

[winter grove]

VoC Cutthroat gets a pass

[tall torrent]

It’s very funny that the veteran personality that whines the most is almost exclusively played by people who don’t know how to play this game

[winter grove]

All cadia haters play professional

Just a funny observation

[tall torrent]

I’m not rly a Cadia hater, I just don’t like how whiny cutthroat is

Scion helm largely fixes that problem for me

[winter grove]

Not saying you are

It's just the professional shit talks cadia

[tame lodge]

Yeah, it's funny

Always

[last parcel]

you'll fall apart at the last moment

juuuuuust like cadia

[tall torrent]

I think that line doesn’t get triggered if u have a Cadia origin professional

[winter grove]

That's reasonable tbf

[last parcel]

yeah

[tame lodge]

Time to run plasma, so the cutthroats mock me every now and then

[winter grove]

«Hey Professional do you know candice?»
«YOUR HOME PLANET BLEW UP»

[last parcel]

https://tenor.com/view/slam-dunk-competition-vince-carter-slam-dunk-dunk-raptors-gif-17621118

[tall torrent]

Professional is actually the most chill with plasma lol

He only says it’s too hot

The other 2 are legit scared of it

[tame lodge]

Yeah, but the CT will still ask you if you know how to handle it or afraid of a little heat or straight up call you an amateur

It's funny

[winter grove]

I am not blaming them for that

You're essentially holding a grenade in your hands

[tame lodge]

Is plasma the only weapon with such regards?

[winter grove]

I mean yeah

Unless you play psyker

[tame lodge]

That's another story

[winter grove]

Plasma is just a gun with peril

[tame lodge]

Still believe that you should harm allies if exploding

[tall torrent]

Meanwhile cutthroat himself is like “show…no…weakness…”

[winter grove]

Skaven tech™

[tame lodge]

"AAGH, I HATE PLASMA"

[lime gyro]

cadian vet is based

[winter grove]

"Wahhh wahhh Cadia Cadia"

[tall torrent]

Only with scion helm

[winter grove]

Cutthroat entire personality

[lime gyro]

L take dont care

[tall torrent]

I wish they did more for the ruthless killer side and less for the “Cadian” side

[winter grove]

Loose cannon is one best voice pick I chose blindly

[orchid hemlock]

OHH DON 'T STOP BIG MAN 😩

[umbral garnet]

John Darktide.

[orchid hemlock]

I like the Cadia Australian, he sounds like a psychopathic nerd

[winter grove]

Meet the four rejects
John Darktide the Veteran
Johnny Darktide the Psyker
Joanne Darktide the Zealot
Joe Darktide the Ogryn

[tall torrent]

If they want to do cosmetic expansions like VT2 I think one aspect they can go for is having new voice personalities for classes

[winter grove]

Sienna voice pack for psyker when

[orchid hemlock]

I love the part of the game where they say: "It's Dark Tiden time"

[woeful galleon]

Oh, that'd be neat actually, putting it in with a pack. It's not like they need to keep dialogue all that coherent, characters barely keep up a conversation anyway.

[winter grove]

Psykers vs Zealot have most conversations

Psyker on Zealot violence

[woeful galleon]

The one i heard the most, truly to the point of nausea, is one from Silly Vet and the "nobleman-like" Zealot, can't remember what they're called, the one that goes "If you could be anywhere, where would you be?"
"The holy altar of Saint whatever!"
"We really oughta work on your imagination"
And so on.

[somber axle]

I think the funniest is when someone goes "[Insert thing] over there!" and my Loose Cannon says "Sure! Keep pointing things out, it'll be useful one day." Another character tells her she's being rude and she goes "Suuuure. Take their side."

[winter grove]

Oh yeah, that line

[somber axle]

even funnier when I'm using focus target to point things out constantly

only SHE is allowed to point out things

or she gets jealous

[tame lodge]

Loose Cannon and Agitator, noticed when both males

[winter grove]

"Wah wah wah, stop whinging"

The foreshortened lifespans

[somber axle]

Fem Savant is my second fav voice but only because I adore the French accent and professionalism

[supple stag]

I like male loose cannon voice, but the lines are something that I am mixed about

[somber axle]

most of her dialogue doesn't have much more interesting about it though tbh

generally very bland lines

[supple stag]

Fem Savant though sounds lovely

[somber axle]

but wow her accent

[woeful galleon]

I mostly like Loose cannon, it's just a few lines that are specific enough to get old quickly

[tame lodge]

It seems that only the male has the entire thing

[supple stag]

I blindly chose professional for my vet and it was a good choice

[umbral garnet]

"DEFENSE PATTERN- DON'T MATTER, JUST KILL EM"

[woeful galleon]

That is at least a nice little character trait

[somber axle]

Loose Cannon Vet eternally torn between the training they only vaguely remember and the desire to just improvise encounters and adapt as they go

I hope they add more voices one day

I want a crazy Catachan fighter voice

[woeful galleon]

Oh I'd love that

[supple stag]

Catachan vet would be interesting

[woeful galleon]

Just a guy who loves danger and wants more

[somber axle]

would be even better now that the personality scourge thing is being added

let people swap voices around

[woeful galleon]

Yeah, by all means with the personality scourge FS would totally have the chance to introduce more voices now, as long as they keep up with all the interactions.

[frank monolith]

if you smoke a choke point and your team doesnt go pass it. You will mind control all the gunners to go into the smoke and you guys can melee em

[supple stag]

I do love how professional vet throws codes for enemies, makes you feel like you're an actual Veteran of Astra Militarum

[tame lodge]

It's also mimicking how Bardin has a name for everything

If you think about it

[winter grove]

I hate french in an ironic way but she gets a pass

[supple stag]

Bardin uses his language there so...

[tame lodge]

It's understandable

[somber axle]

Catachan Vet breathing heavy with a wild tone going: "More! More!! Wait. Where's the rest?! Move up! Let's find whatever holes they're hiding in now."

[umbral garnet]

I just love the annoyed tiredness the Loosecannon delivers his lines with.

[woeful galleon]

"You call this bad?! The plants aren't even trying to kill us!"

[umbral garnet]

He's fed up with this shit.

[woeful galleon]

Call it something like "Deathworlder" personality and there you have a little treasure of voice packs

[tame lodge]

What a death world does to a Astra Mil

[somber axle]

"Cadia this. Atoma that. You know Chaos invaded our world once? Took us a week to notice, and by then the flora and fauna had chased them off! Hahah!"

[supple stag]

"The Catachan devil bites harder than you, hound"

[somber axle]

that's a really good idea

[woeful galleon]

When i made a commissar character for an Only War ttrpg game I literally played him as having accidentally been assigned to the Catachan jungle fighters and having a phobia of them now

[somber axle]

the only French I know irl is something I would never actually say irl and it's from a song

[winter grove]

Loose cannon also throws codes around
I mean he tries to do that

[somber axle]

"voulez vou couchec avec mou" though I probably misspelled it

Vet voice for throwing codes with the Scion helmet feels like a really good vibe

[woeful galleon]

"Gamma... uh... gamma... BURSTER!!!" gotta be my favourite line, just the guy panicking while trying to remember code-talk as this weirdo with a bomb runs up to him.

[supple stag]

It's funny how he tries to remember them all

Professional buys me with how fluent he is with them

And overall tone of his voice is pleasant to listen to

[winter grove]

"Sigma-something-something"

[somber axle]

wait weird question

[umbral garnet]

Traxis-something-SNIPER!!

[somber axle]

would the traitors know all the codes anyway?

[winter grove]

Why not

[somber axle]

I mean probably not the dregs since they're just like cultists and commoners given guns and told to hunt us yeah?

[winter grove]

They're guard too

[somber axle]

but the traitor legion

[tall torrent]

Moebian 6th probably does

[somber axle]

they probably hear the codes and realise we know what's up

[supple stag]

Traitors probably have the idea

[woeful galleon]

In my personal headcanon Veteran characters are just making them up as they go. I never really managed to memorize them, so I just kinda never know what they mean until i actually see the enemy.

[tall torrent]

You gotta understand that they fought chaos / xenos in the fringe wars so they definitely had designations for chaos and xenos

[winter grove]

Moebian 6th will never have what we have

Smart ogryns

[supple stag]

Their brains aren't particularly functioning well, due to nurgle bs

[woeful galleon]

With ogryn bombs and even worse: rocks.

[supple stag]

Also drug dens do be available to them freely now

[winter grove]

Also the fact that almost all guns I have on vet have bad stability

I just like thinking he got shakiest hands on Mourningstar

13% stability Agrippina shotgun

[woeful galleon]

Recoil man

[somber axle]

get some serious PTSD when 4 poxbursters explode inches away from being lethal to you

can't hold his gun straight but its ok

[woeful galleon]

gets netted by trapper
3 pox bursters spawn

[somber axle]

just keep shooting because the heretics are everywhere

[supple stag]

Bursters are just annoying

[winter grove]

36% stability MG Ia also

[woeful galleon]

I got used to them, they keep people's guards up

[winter grove]

Man

PTSD so high even lasguns got recoil for him

[supple stag]

I got killed so many times by some trigger happy zealot/vet when I tried to safely shove and defuse them that way

[somber axle]

it's a purple ork shaking the gun and whispering "pew pew" in your ears

[supple stag]

One vet got me killed by that, five minutes later he bumped onto daemonhost and got properly slain

[somber axle]

sounds like you're not the emperor's drunkest veteran

[supple stag]

I love karma

[somber axle]

it's that other guy

[supple stag]

He was stupid, not drunk

2 different things my bruh

[woeful galleon]

Yeah, that does sound like top bad-vet behaviour

[somber axle]

idk when I'm drunk I'm extra stupid tbh

[supple stag]

Skill issue

[somber axle]

I'm half asian and I think it's a gene thing

I cannot hold my drink at all

[supple stag]

I am Polish so uhh

I was born to drink

[woeful galleon]

I'm italian so I guess i'm ok with it

Funny thing to just... wonder at alcoholism around the world

Truly humans have more similarities than differences

[supple stag]

However negative things and differences are easier to notice

[somber axle]

https://tenor.com/view/mewtwo-mew-pokemon-movie-i-see-now-gif-20299223

[supple stag]

I score around 100 ranged kills per match on Vet, that's how I use my life

Other 400-700 kills are melee

[somber axle]

I don't use any scoreboard mod or really any mod tbh so I have no idea what my average kill numbers are in either direction

I shoot things and neuron activates

[woeful galleon]

Same

[supple stag]

I play tide games for their melee system

[somber axle]

honestly same

[woeful galleon]

Kinda thankful I don't honestly, so long as i play well in general I'm good

[winter grove]

I've hit almost 500 ranged kills on vet

Like 497

[supple stag]

I use guns excussively on gunners/specials, beast of nurgle

[woeful galleon]

Kinda need to to properly enjoy them, Darktide has way more room for the shooting, but if someone's expecting to just go full call of duty they're probably getting disappointed.

[supple stag]

Other things taste the sword

[winter grove]

I use MG4 on everything

[supple stag]

Playing range focused gets me bored

[winter grove]

Horde, elite/special, bosses

[woeful galleon]

Keep a revolver, plasma or bolter if I wanna be fun to blast bigger stuff, then just mow everything else with swords and shovels and stuff.

[supple stag]

I don't run plasma out of principle

I stick to vraks 7, agripinaa inf autogun or revolver

[somber axle]

I'll shoot anything if my ammo count looks good tbh

[woeful galleon]

Funnily enough I have a build with a bayonetted rifle, that I hate for shooting, because I like using the bayonet.

Barely shoot with it

[somber axle]

the big circus map arena thing I'll spray into the small squads of 4 poxwalkers to kill them slightly faster to close gates because I love zipping around the arena solo closing the gates over and over, then run around the stands shooting gunners in their face

[woeful galleon]

Just stab people with both my knife AND my gun

[supple stag]

Emperor gave me power sword and therefore I swing it for most of the time

[somber axle]

I like closing the doors because it confuses teams who have never done it before

whole map suddenly empty

[supple stag]

And I wish I could feel the same love for other melees

[woeful galleon]

I feel like i've never seen a team who actually bothers trying to do that

[somber axle]

usually because fighting everything is more chaotic and fun

[woeful galleon]

Did it myself with the stabby vet, just stealth and say "no enemies"

[winter grove]

When I grab MG4 my teammates will remember lasgun shooting sfx

[somber axle]

but it's also funny seeing how fast I can run around closing the doors by myself while the 3 other squadmates huddle in that little corner with their medipacs and ammo packs

[winter grove]

For the rest of the match

I do some precision shooting with MG Ia tho

[hearty panther]

it has been a glorious recon las day

still miss the old stripped down, not being able to sprint at 40mph with the recon 6d stings my soul

[somber axle]

same

got home and burned holes through rager packs, crushers, maulers, etc.

laser lightshow has returned to the circus

[hearty panther]

do u know the reload tec

you can save

a whole second

on ur reload by doing unnecessary keyboard inputs

its a whole new level of recon las memery

Nah im talking about the normal one

[fluid solstice]

Tomorrow

[umbral scaffold]

Im willing to bet its gonna be released tomorrow yeah

[somber axle]

ok got a decent Recon Mk VIIa and I gotta say this isn't nearly as funny as the Recon VId

maybe the cleave makes for funny moments I'm not seeing

[last parcel]

i think it's for when you're put in a game with 3 ogryns

[trim hemlock]

actually kind of blessed

[wanton dawn]

Would you use that on a fully loaded build?

[trim hemlock]

I would change Skullcrusher at least, but yeah, maybe

[somber axle]

that makes more sense

[supple stag]

Looks nice

Although I'd probably prefer Mk III

[pale pecan]

Allow me

I have a few 550s, but none are as good as this.

[visual plaza]

[pale pecan]

I've never much bothered with breakpoints, but can't go wrong with extra crit chance. Unyielding I'd say.

[ocean lynx]

Was probably gonna go for that as well

[pale pecan]

Should get you to what base 30-35% crit chance with Surge on top you'll be critting a lot.

Let me go find my revys

I have a 550 like the one on the right on my zealot but I'm lazy

I'm interested to see what the Heavy version of the revolver is like

This Knife with this talent is absurdly good if you stack more melee and weakspot damage on top.

[neat stratus]

Yall ever go half or more of a decade before realizing Windows sets your monitor's hz way lower than it can actually go?

I feel kinda stupid now

[last parcel]

i'm sorry for your loss

[lost canyon]

did they fix vet talent tree yet?

once upon a time i played veteran a lot and then fatshark said "getting headshots while moving is LAME. From this point on, only headshots while standing still. Thank you"

and i never played the game again

[trim hemlock]

Fixed how? What do you mean?

[lost canyon]

uhhh way back in like patch 15/16 they redid veterans and they were completely fucked. Was like 1 solid build for veteran and it wasnt even that solid compared to the other classes

[pale pecan]

Yeah it's solid now

[lost canyon]

When they added the new veteran keystones and they were all garbage so people started making builds not using keystones

[pale pecan]

Oh that

yeah the Keystones are still wack, but you can use them

[lost canyon]

yeah the whole talent tree was a flaming pile of dogshit, the keystones sucked ass

yeah thats not my point

are zealot keystones still better by a good degree?

[dreamy spade]

Specialist keystone is good

[pale pecan]

Oh definitely

But the keystones we have are fun if you play into them

They're not just so general

[trim hemlock]

It’s tough to evaluate the Vet’s keystones in a vacuum, but Focus Target keystone is stupidly broken good

Weapons Specialist is not far behind, and while Marksman’s Focus keystone is niche, it has valid use still

[pale pecan]

^

[lost canyon]

i like to play "Im good at games and i can headshot everything and do well because skill" and then fatshark said "uhh you should uhh... stand still. yeah. standing still is cool. OR, you can mark stuff. you like marking stuff right? wha.. what? you want to just shoot them in the head instead? the marking is a waste of time? no no..

[pale pecan]

Focus Target carried my Hard Mode Twins run.

[lost canyon]

OH COOL WAIT if you dont want to mark stuff. swap weapons a lot!

swapping your weapons a lot is super fun!

[pale pecan]

Honestly this just seems like cope to me

[lost canyon]

it was just way better before the update

headshoot shit, dont have to worry about moving to much, can just headshot shit and kill it instead of marking it first, which is just redundant in my eyes

[pale pecan]

The only thing that sucks with weapon specialist is dodge distance is capped at 15%

[lost canyon]

i have to mark it and then shoot it. why not just... shoot it

[pale pecan]

So you can't get insane dodges

[lost canyon]

Lets be real, fatshark realized veteran was op af in a skilled players hands

and nerfed the fuck out of him

and pissed off a lot of veteran players.

[pale pecan]

I don't see the issue tbh

[lost canyon]

want me to look at your player count?

[pale pecan]

I can true solo auric damnation with vet

He has the most toughness and toughness replenishment of any class

[lost canyon]

ahh so the game is struggling to hit 5k players.

no issues

game is great!

[pale pecan]

Helldivers 2 is out and Darktide hasn't updated yet.

Patience.

[lost canyon]

Veteran tree rework killed the class for me. I'll come back and check in another year or so.

thanks for the info

[lucid sail]

true word guys

[pale pecan]

Just try another class if you want to play the game.

Don't just cope

[lucid sail]

i have like more then 1k jours on my zealot

[lost canyon]

i want to play veteran. I want to headshot hordes of heretics

[dreamy spade]

Veteran tree is goated bruh

[pale pecan]

Genuinely delulu

[lost canyon]

and not be tasked with some bullshit " dont move" stacks, weapon swapping, or lame ass marking shit when i should be shooting shit

meanwhile zealot gets a YAY CRITS ARE FUN keystone

[lucid sail]

and its no fun going damnation with a loadout like auric mealstorm 😄

[lost canyon]

that uses 0 effort

[pale pecan]

Dude do you know how much weapon swapping you do

[lost canyon]

or skill

[pale pecan]

It's basically free crit chance

[lost canyon]

with veteran? if you're good? not much. headshot everything.

[pale pecan]

Kill an enemy with your sword? boom, 33% crit chance

[lost canyon]

convserve ammo

[pale pecan]

a single dude

[lost canyon]

veteran should rarely be using melee

thats literally why zealot exists

[pale pecan]

Ok now I know you're trolling

Vet has the single best melee weapon in the game.

[lost canyon]

im being 100% serious

and thats fucking stupid

its the fucking ranged gun headshot class

[pale pecan]

Veteran can 2 shot a Crusher to the head

Idk what to tell you man, just sounds like you hate the game instead of finding ways to shape it to you and have fun with it

[lost canyon]

no i hate what they did to veteran

[dreamy spade]

Vet melee is way more fun than zealot

[lucid sail]

then u have no clue about zelaot

[pale pecan]

Right now I'm playing a Stealth Sniper Veteran with the Headhunter Autogun and the Headshotting keystone

It's fun

[lucid sail]

zealot is op with a good team they r unsotppable

[dreamy spade]

I didn't say its more op I said its more fun

[lost canyon]

heres the main issue.
Zealot gets free crits. He literally has a keystone that says "Here you go, FUN. enjoy:"

Veteran gets "You can have some bonus but jump through these rings for me first"

[pale pecan]

Veteran also gets free crits lmao

[lucid sail]

vets r cool but sometimes it doesnt work u have not that toughness

[lost canyon]

Veteran gets "You can have some bonus but jump through these rings for me first"

[pale pecan]

It's not much of a ring my guy

[lost canyon]

"not moving" on the hardest difficulties, is definitely a ring.

[lucid sail]

hmm

[pale pecan]

That isn't what it is at all lmao

[lost canyon]

much more so than "Hey you're zealot and you have free crit"

[pale pecan]

Besides

[lost canyon]

"what do you have to do to get your crit zealot?"

literally nothing\

[pale pecan]

If you dislike that keystone so much, use a different one

[lost canyon]

NOTHING

free crit

veteran? dont move. swap weapons. spam mark on things

Its stupid.

sorry

but its stupid

[pale pecan]

Well what do you want veteran to have lmao

[lost canyon]

idk it was pretty solid before the update 🙂

[lucid sail]

guys

[pale pecan]

Vet was OP before the class update

ngl

[lucid sail]

close combat and range r 2 diff shoes:D

[lost canyon]

The difference is close combat is easy

[lucid sail]

zealot is not a sniper 😄

[pale pecan]

the 75% toughness dmg reduction in ult was broken

[lost canyon]

and ranged headshots isnt

[pale pecan]

Headshots are easy, at this point I say skill issue

[lost canyon]

the more skill based class was given more skill based bullshit. while zealot gets to spam m1

[lucid sail]

well he can with that revolver but main work is give bleed and crit

[lost canyon]

and skill

[dreamy spade]

You know you dont have to pick a keystone right?

[lost canyon]

^ thats the dumbest bullshit

thats what pissed me off the most

[pale pecan]

I'm gonna go back to playing the keystone this guy says is garbage lmao

[lost canyon]

that the new meta builds after the patch were "just dont use a keystone"

[pale pecan]

And carry my team while doing it

Toodles

[lucid sail]

sad is i am like 1 month in H2 and idk when the patch will come out

some say april in 1 week ?

[lost canyon]

"Alright. so you dont like the new vet keystones. We'll try and play devils advocate and say that these keystones are fine but after you point out why they are super stupid ultra trash that killed the class, we'll concede and say.. ok fine. Dont use the trash keystones then"

game deserved to die after that patch. good riddance.

[pale pecan]

My problem with the game is the crafting, not the classes.

[lost canyon]

dont get me started bud

lmao

[dreamy spade]

Crafting is fine

[pale pecan]

It's no Vermintide 2 that's for sure

[pale pecan]

Speak of the devil

[lucid sail]

[dreamy spade]

If you want a fun melee vet try this

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9bcc50ac-460e-4dd1-aa75-aeb9f40a3885/clutch-vet

Try to switch shoot revolver every 10 seconds (you shouldnt have to reload once)

[fiery wave]

Skill issue

[frank monolith]

if you really try hard enough you can build your vet kinda like a knife zealot and do really well in melee and has a plasma gun

[fiery wave]

That’s what I run

[potent iris]

vet is fine lol, just spam VoC and have not a care in the world

[frank monolith]

thats what i run with weapon specialist

[potent iris]

like you're practically immortal

[fiery wave]

Vet has plasma, the best weapon in the game

[frank monolith]

its like more fun

its like melee to plasma shot melee to plasma shot and my brain gives me so much dopamine

[frank monolith]

you can also eat a crusher overhead if you have yello toughness

[fiery wave]

Piss toughness is insane

Actually makes auric maelstroms easy

[grand perch]

Also the most boring option but that's just, like, my opinion

[potent iris]

oh it 100% is the boring option lmao

[grand perch]

VoC needs a fus ro dah upgrade that just absolutely launches the enemy you're aiming at off the map

Broken AF but hilarious

[supple stag]

It's quite hilarious how you can make beast of nurgle spit someone out by VoC

[final stone]

I misread your name as Indian Eater

there's no follow up, I just thought the room should know

[supple stag]

Yellow toughness would be much less broken if it was something you can't regen back by kills and such, one time thing when you pop VoC

Or just yeet it completly

[last parcel]

i appreciate you

[last parcel]

🍆

[junior needle]

Thing is if yellow toughness didn't do it, it would kinda suck

[forest breach]

PS mk6+revolver is the most fun

[junior needle]

But the options outside of voc aren't terribly impressive

[trim hemlock]

But as is, it invalidates the one remotely dangerous mechanic of fighting with heavy elites

[junior needle]

and 2/3 vet auras are also lackluster

[trim hemlock]

Not that if matters greatly, in good teams elites are hardly ever an issue

[forest breach]

hellbore bayonet only is also silly

[junior needle]

The bayonet got toned down with brutal removal

[trim hemlock]

Why is Ripper bayonet weaker than puny Veteran bayonet

[supple stag]

Veteran is a krieger in disguise

[junior needle]

I'm fine with one shot overheads being countered by two ults considering that the only time I ever get downed from them anyway is due to netcode BS

[trim hemlock]

Helbro Bayo is still plenty strong, though, you just can’t do everything with it right now (or do so “inefficiently”)

[junior needle]

I'll dodge out of the way, watch the overhead hit the ground in front of/to my side, and then get downed

[trim hemlock]

I wouldn’t mind that, had the ability not been stupid easy to use in any situation, and on a relatively short cool down time

[junior needle]

This assumes the vet player actually uses it

And doesn't just hold onto it the whole game for "personal emergencies"

[trim hemlock]

Or reviving the teammates with the upgrade

[supple stag]

I use it fairly often, bringing that Mercenary mindset from Vermintide

There’s only so much to talk about, about Zealot

Veteran at least has an interesting skill tree

[viscid sparrow]

i wonder what would happen if we tried to pet a sigma minoris 33

like, would the petting hand's skin dissolve from the plagues its carrying if we actually managed to pet it, or would it just chomp the hand off because its very aggressive?

this question also applies to the heretics, btw, as they don't seem to give their dogs any signs of affection either (although, we can't be too certain about that).

Can't say much about ogryn chat, cause I don't check it, but others are usually a shuffle of topics, related to class in question or not

[austere pine]

besides selling me unpowered laspistols again, did melk cook here?

[austere pine]

this is true. i've tried swaying the conversation in zealot chat a couple times but i always get ignored. ogryn is the one class i don't play and psyker chat is always super nice but, as you said, a coin toss on if you catch them talking about psyker or not

veteran chat is the 2nd general chat i'd say

[supple stag]

Smh not slaughterer and headtaker or however that blessing was called

[austere pine]

nah the laspistol kinda crazy

[supple stag]

Laspistol looks alright

Carapace kinda ass

[austere pine]

idc much about the chainaxe (check name) but it looked pretty good with the stat spread (how is that a 337 i don't know) and thrust

it's got 3/4 good things and i'm able to change 2 things

[supple stag]

That chainaxe doesn't really look that good I'd say

Trust is only somewhat okay but even that's debatable

[austere pine]

i'll leave this gun at this. imagine the worst combination of perks and blessings you can, this gun has it

[ornate garnet]

I'd say both look great for blessings but the bases are meh

[austere pine]

whachu mean the laspistol is a meh base?

[ornate garnet]

You lost a dodge, that's not fun

[austere pine]

what are your standards if that is considered "meh"?

[ornate garnet]

That's about it.

[woeful galleon]

That autopistol is always funny to look at no matter what

[ornate garnet]

If you are accept to get slapped by ragers too many times because your dodges ran out its a great weapon, but personnally i rarely take weapons under 370 just because the missing points add up over time

[austere pine]

keep in mind that i play flamer zealot and i'm always in situations where i'm facing 6 crushers constantly attacking me while i'm walking back and they're overheading me and i never get hit

if a loss of 1 dodge is holding you back, there's no hope for you

discuss

[oblique horizon]

Oh no

Interesting change. Will feed less ammo for sure now.

Idk, but I chuckled
"FFS I CANT HIT IT"

[dreamy spade]

Bruh

One of my builds got nerfed

[oblique horizon]

If this works, thats awesome

[dreamy spade]

Which ones scavenger again?

[shrewd lagoon]

Confirmed? That hurts

[oblique horizon]

Thats the basic survivalist

[grand perch]

Yay marksman key stone buff

[lyric dock]

Gonna have some changes overall to how people play with the skill

Now you have to better manage your ammo count with low ammo count weapons

[woeful junco]

it does work, but you still flinch from getting hit by enemy ranged fire if you don't have any toughness left iirc

getting shot with toughness feels much better though

[grand perch]

Damn, I just needed 100k more dead heretics for the million kills, and now they halved the required amount

[oblique horizon]

Well, admittedly if youre out of toughness, you should avoid gunfire

[grand perch]

I mean that's a more reasonable number but damn

[lyric dock]

Surprising no weapon balance changes

[shrewd lagoon]

Now vets will shoot even less

[oblique horizon]

I mean, arent most weapons in a good state right now? Id say only bolter needed some buffs and thats it honestly

[shrewd lagoon]

If you can aim it's good

Though now ammo is a bigger problem

So maybe it does

[lyric dock]

I was half expecting some tweaks to weapons, but with the survivalist changes. I wonder how it'll shift the weapon meta up

Maybe Las weapons will become more common because shock trooper being nearly required now

[oblique horizon]

Las weapons will be shifted up

[grand perch]

Removed the “force field” in front of Bulwarks that allowed them to block hits/shots that didn’t look like they would be blocked by their shield.

[odd sparrow]

yay no longer feel like im nerfing myself by switching off survivalist

[grand perch]

I wonder if shots from the front diagonal will now hit past the shield

[lyric dock]

Will allow some exploration into the other auras for Vet

Or give a bit more freedom with points since you're not being forced into the survivalist tax

[balmy flume]

reads patch notes
notices now we “technically” have another investigation mission by virtue of reclassification
…would have been nice before I farmed the dangly XD

[dusty sluice]

how big is the nerf?

[odd sparrow]

5 sec cd on ammo gain

[oblique horizon]

5s cooldown on it

[lyric dock]

5 second cool down between procs

[balmy flume]

O.o

[dusty sluice]

ye ik, but how big is it?

(in terms of impact)

[dreamy spade]

Pretty big

[lyric dock]

Hunting grounds is no longer a free ammo refil

[lyric dock]

Pretty big

[odd sparrow]

so still good but not litterally infinite ammo on efficient weapons

[oblique horizon]

Im curious if you kill 5 enemies at the same time,with the plasma shot or grenade does it count as 1 kill or cooldown after first?

[odd sparrow]

especially on higher difficullties

[dreamy spade]

My plasma woupd get a 5 kills every second

[vague smelt]

Rip infinite ammo

[odd sparrow]

i would assume only 1 proc

[vague smelt]

[lyric dock]

Las weapons are gonna spike in usage

[cunning sandal]

How we feeling about the changes?

[odd sparrow]

since multikills give individual ammo procs

[lyric dock]

On paper hard to really say. Need some experience on the field to really know

[oblique horizon]

Marksman stuff got buffed good so I like it. Surv is whatever nerf honestly, just get more tinboxes

[lyric dock]

I can instantly see Las weapons becoming more popular on vets

[odd sparrow]

buffs to marksman focus is nice so you dont need to have amazing aim to upkeep it.

small buff to executioner is nice, nerf to survivalist was deserved

[balmy flume]

Oh wait even faster Executioner stance.

Nice.

[grand perch]

Surv should be a base line skill anyway, and be replaced by something of equal value to the other two options

[pale pecan]

That 5s cd for 1% ammo is brutal

[balmy flume]

Oh out for blood is gonna help with Horde clearing

[odd sparrow]

fire team is definitely the worst, such a small dmg increase thatll very rarely change breakpoints

[lyric dock]

Kinda wish Exe stance gives a instant reload

[odd sparrow]

yeah

[pale pecan]

Time to only play lasguns now

With the crit cost no ammo

[lyric dock]

But hey. It having less CD is nice

[grand perch]

Let's not reintroduce what was broken in the first place

[balmy flume]

Twice as nice when your curios also have cd decrease lol

why it might even be possible to scout for ambushes using Exe stance!

[odd sparrow]

tbh why would you cd reduction on exe anyway lol just extend it

[lyric dock]

Now to play the. What mod breaks this time

[odd sparrow]

oh yeah

[grand perch]

Yeah that is a bit of an odd buff

Wish exec stance would give a little bit of rending instead

[shy maple]

not really just pick up some ammo instead

i never really have to pick up ammo guess i will have to now sometimes

[odd sparrow]

yeah theres quite a lot off ammo pick ups

[shy maple]

vet privilege now sorry pskyers zaelots ogryns etc

[lyric dock]

I was Enjoying not having to fight over ammo with the Recon storm troopers

[shy maple]

changes nothing in the grand scheme they gotta rework or buff the other 2 talent options instead

you will fight the ammo burners and you will like it

[grand perch]

I mean I always did

[shy maple]

its a dumb change

bandaid fix that doesnt fix the problem

basically just a " we heard you and did something" change

[shrewd lagoon]

There's still enough ammo spawns with the change but coordinating with randoms for it is now harder

[lyric dock]

New update. So now to wait for a bit for mods to be updated

[shrewd lagoon]

Altogether disappointing update

Sniveling but still

Oh my god I gotta unlock this and see it

[mint chasm]

Welp now i know what to do at night

[midnight mortar]

Of course there's no preview.

[grand perch]

blades out for harambe

[serene bough]

5s coodown on survivalist means it procs once every 5 seconds?

[oblique horizon]

Christ, thats a fun one to do in pubs

Prepare for sweats leaving immediately on downs

[grand perch]

so nothing new there

[polar schooner]

Yes, I guess the DT devs dont want you to use any of the rapid fire weapons

[oblique horizon]

Nvm, this is even worse

[polar schooner]

Especially not recon lasgun, that'd be too fun

[serene bough]

cant complain too much survivalist was extremely overpowered

[balmy flume]

I mean it just means having to grab a few more ammo pickups I guess.

[polar schooner]

Depended entirely on which weapon you used

[agile forge]

Not maelstrom though

[balmy flume]

Maybe Agri IAG becomes king again due to more damage/bullet

And cleave

[serene bough]

didnt matter which weapon old survivalist just made ammo a non-mechanic

[balmy flume]

Meaning more efficiency per shot

[polar schooner]

I'm sure it was if you played on lower difficulties

[serene bough]

yes 1k hours have been spent only in sedition

[balmy flume]

Nah I think even in Damnation you barely had to pick up a tin or two at worst. Even with Autoguns.

[polar schooner]

How do you spend 1k hours in a game and still know so little about it

[serene bough]

no comment

[polar schooner]

Good

[oblique horizon]

Holy

Look at the reward

[frank ether]

If anything at least exec and mf can be maintained at a similar pace and you no longer have this weird timing difference in upkeep

[oblique horizon]

I didnt notice individual penances gave new armor sets too

[balmy flume]

…
…oh great I might need to farm for that lol

[slow spade]

I can't believe they nerfed Survivalist 😔 it clearly needed a buff

[oblique horizon]

I mean, its like 5 games

XD

[serene bough]

damn penances are tied to active abilities

guess i need to use exe / VoC

[balmy flume]

Thank goodness, but I am an old school Exec stance guy. Gonna get wrecked I suspect when I try to farm it XD.

[oblique horizon]

Hm, so we got around 5 I think new sets per class. Thats pretty pog.

[tall torrent]

Alr Time to build 200 toughness on veteran with triple 4% CDR

[slow spade]

I mean its not like its hard to play a VoC vet

[oblique horizon]

Also, sidenote, Dear lord this backpack for psyker

[serene bough]

at least the cosmetics look pretty diverse

[balmy flume]

Fair point and come to think of it, I wonder what the Exec stance equivalent reward is.

[tiny summit]

This is such a funny change

[tall torrent]

That was in the old penances already lol

[slow spade]

I can't believe they nerfed recon again 😔

[shy maple]

its dumb but was to be expected

[balmy flume]

Ah ok thx for clarifying.

[shy maple]

cause some people cry about balancing while the other 2 options are garbage in comparison even after nerf

[tiny summit]

Yep

[serene bough]

im glad they nerfed survivalist but a cooldown is kind of strange

[wanton dawn]

I CALLED IT

[shy maple]

they unironically nerfed recon by that

[tiny summit]

It still solves nothing

[wanton dawn]

I DEFINITELY CALLED IT

[shy maple]

like unironically even less ammo for it lmao

[tiny summit]

Besides making the best option shittier

[slow spade]

I might actually need to worry about ammo now

[analog anvil]

instead making other auras better they decieded to nerf only good option lmao

[slow spade]

To be fair, the other auras are comparable to other classes

Survivalist is just "slightly better" UwU

[serene bough]

"slightly"

[tiny summit]

They really should just delete survivalist, make scavenger base with his aura upgrades and I guess keep the CD lmao

[shy maple]

hey now the special lasgun snowflakes can argue that their gun isnt that bad

[slow spade]

They should give me infinite ammo

[serene bough]

I'll have to actually play with it to see how bad it is

[shy maple]

muh ammo efficiency etc etc

[tiny summit]

Or give everyone a means to regen some ammo off like meleeing specials or elites

[shy maple]

changes nothing i will just start picking up ammo again now instead

sucks for the other classes that need those

[serene bough]

i mean, isnt that the point

[slow spade]

Gunpsykers on suicide watch

[serene bough]

to pick up ammo again and consider it as a mechanic

[wanton dawn]

#veteran-class message Too predictable

[tiny summit]

Nah I'll just helbore again

[shy maple]

its a bad token change

[tall torrent]

T’augryns are over

[plucky agate]

Damn i went from Cadian to Warp entity in one update

[shy maple]

but hey im not the ogryn zaelot or gun psyker

[serene bough]

rumbler ogryns w/ survivalist was definitely the least enjoyable game to play in

[shy maple]

so i couldnt car eless

[wanton dawn]

OfB buff is very nice

[plucky agate]

My character really just banished into the warp

[serene bough]

i appreciate the marksman focus changes

even if they're minor

[shy maple]

but tbh i played blizzard games im used to bad balance changes

especially those obviously made to appease some people

[slow spade]

The more things change, the more they stay the same

I wonder if the Pox bomber buff messes with breakpoints

Brutal momentum pls still 1-hit kill :c

[pulsar radish]

Oof another veteran slap

[wanton dawn]

Surv nerf is deserved

[pulsar radish]

That scavenger aura cooldown, coulda been balanced mulitple otherways.

Didn't they also hit another one with the same cooldown though?

[slow spade]

Yeah

The upgraded and default one

[dreamy spade]

Wait for me guys

[wanton dawn]

Am at work anyway

[balmy flume]

…looks like my update may take my entire night’s sleep to wait it out lol

[shy maple]

tbh not mouch of an update anyway

youre not missing out

[midnight mortar]

The dedication to "attack me in my gut so I die horribly" Armor Pattern mk1. that Fatshark is outsourcing for is remarkable.

[pulsar radish]

That bad?

[hidden torrent]

It's just some penances, not really any must play content

[midnight mortar]

Not necessarily bad. Just, eh.

[pulsar radish]

Hopefully we at least get some good looking cosmetics
