Never have I dreamed of rolling Uncanny 4 in the other slot

hollow ibex
#

flesh tearer technically isn't a S tier blessing for vet knife

trim hemlock
#

But I am ready to embrace the "commando" Vet

hollow ibex
#

but i like it anyway

trim hemlock
#

This is the other result

#

Which I'm also happy with

agile yew
#

Im in the Uncanny+Precog camp with knives after playing Zealot, but Zealot has that massive boost to headshots and crits talent too

waxen veldt
#

Damn, I wish I liked the bolter.

#

Hadron will brick it anyways

hollow ibex
#

keep it for the crafting rework

waxen veldt
#

Yeah I'll definitely hang onto it

#

Also the next patch better have a way to favorite weapons I swear to god, Fatshark

hollow ibex
#

lol i just ended up installing the weapon rename mod

#

also next patch desperately needs to include some weapon balancing passes

cedar abyss
hollow ibex
#

it's just speculation and copium

waxen veldt
hollow ibex
#

yeah i did that after accidentally selling my best rumbler kms

waxen veldt
#

I get anxiety whenever I clear out my weapon list :v

cedar abyss
#

unrelated but a T4 blessing on a blue is weird

waxen veldt
#

graia brauto

#

oops

#

meant to search :v

#

But I guess I'll ask, any reason to use a graia brauto?

hollow ibex
#

mostly for the brrrrrrrt memes

#

agri braced best braced

waxen veldt
#

Okay that's good enough for me lol

#

Yeah I have a decent agri, but I just got a good graia too, and look

#

I cant say no to super high fire rates

hollow ibex
#

yeah fair enough, but keep in mind you'll need to brace to get the max rof

#

i'm not a fan of that

ugh what I would give to have that belt fed stubber...

#

The ones I picked just seem more consistent/don’t require me to keep a certain rhythm to my dodges

agile yew
#

Yeah as knife zealot i just constantly spam dodges on sides while attacking

hollow ibex
#

yeah does it really matter that much when you're consantly dodging in hordes anyway? 🤔

balmy flume
#

So according to the Vet doc the Laspistol has built in Suppression immunity.
…
Am I right in thinking it only applies when you are actually shooting/holding said Laspistol?

#

(Mobility is critical at times so it would be nice to know lol)

tall torrent
#

Or in some weird cases, inherent bullet spread when you ADS and get shot at (recon lasguns)

balmy flume
#

Ah ok. Wouldn’t matter if I was holding my P Sword then I suppose. (Since at that point I should be swinging it anyways)

tall torrent
#

You can’t get suppressed when you are not aiming down sights, basicallly

trim hemlock
#

If you dodge too early, you will not get these buffs

tall torrent
#

Riposte is very generous, 6s uptime

#

Precog yes you kinda need to time it

hollow ibex
#

yeah i feel like riposte at least would give enough consistency

trim hemlock
#

And I don’t want the aforementioned blessings/skills to interfere with my dodge rhythm greatly whatthefuck_heresy

hollow ibex
#

i'm running uncanny/flesh tearer anyway rn

#

tried a shooting-heavy run last night

#

even with 3 psykers on the team, really felt that surv nerf lol

I really like my heavy laspistol

But sometimes, the revolver headshot is more satisfying

grizzled pebble
#

It's already bad enough don't kick a dead horse.

trim hemlock
#

Well it’s either buff Blaze Trauma and remove Scavenger, or nerf Blaze Trauma and make Scavenger great again sienna_fuegohappy

grizzled pebble
#

Buff blaze trauma screw ammo. whatthefuck_heresy

faint beacon
#

Personally I think ammo should just be removed from the game

#

Best course of action

balmy flume
unique sorrel
#

they should make survivalist a psyker aura

somber axle
#

They should make Survivalist Aura give extra ammo back on ammo tins and ammo packs but keep the cooldown to let players enjoy increased ammo economy and encourage them to scavenge for ammo in levels to learn chest locations while discouraging overtaking ammo because the CD will mean spam picking up ammo doesn't proc the effect and encourages someone to share ammo with others in their squad

#

this is going to be my new silly thing to say any and every time this comes up until maybe the devs hear it

unique sorrel
#

i like it, just needs a way around the anti-synergy between coherency and scavenging

somber axle
#

the coherency thing encourages teams to stay together to get the benefit because running off solo from the team and getting caught in a trapper net/under a dog is silly

balmy flume
#

I mean, scavengers gonna scavenge.
I have seen entire teams splitting up in Auric Damnation to explore(?) IDK why?

unique sorrel
#

split up to look for clues

balmy flume
#

Then you guessed it, shit hits the fan At BEST.

#

Wipe at worst.

#

a new day, a new match for Lawbringer Marksman's Focus 10 stack kill grinding

#

Manstopper Scattershot wide special shots are so fun

trim hemlock

#

I wonder if I have some memey Lawbringer to do this on

somber axle
#

I've had quickplay people asking how I'm doing it

#

I have bad perks but tbh the perks don't matter for evaporating hordes

unique sorrel
#

Wbringer

trim hemlock
#

Oh yeah, I’m aware it makes hordes into fine, thin red paste

somber axle
#

just need the two blessings

balmy flume
somber axle
#

more kills for me

trim hemlock
#

I have... this, I suppose

somber axle
#

if you want to be a little shit while using the lawbringer manstopper scattershot thing use it with infiltrate and -90% threat node

#

then you can stand next to someone else engaged with a horde

#

freely reload special shells

#

delete horde

trim hemlock
#

Oh I do have a build, don't worry about it whatthefuck_heresy

#

(top of the tree is the entire right branch)

#

I might want to take CQKZ instead of Reciprocity

#

but close to 100% crit chance could be funny

#

I might also get rid of Overwatch and pick Desperado for the Combat Blade

tulip condor
#

Like no dumbass. It's if you go to another section of the map

somber axle
#

I love movement speed aura but I'm using this currently

#

I just really love dropping 3 tinkerer boosted kraks into a boss and deleting massive chunks on their health pool

#

and also like having the extra krak handy for large numbers of crushers/bulwarks

trim hemlock
somber axle
#

I could probably drop the camo stance node from Marksman's Focus and pick up Trench Fighter for the melee speed but camo stance is comfy for just heady empty no thoughts 10 stacks ezpz

#

don't have to think about headshot kills or look at the buff

#

just stand still for a little bit, click a head or two and then begin special shot horde evaporation

faint beacon
#

Are you crab maxing

#

With a knife

trim hemlock
#

I'm too lazy to do that

somber axle
#

nah I don't crab LMFAO

#

it's funny but I'm only really crouching sometimes if I'm trying to hit a sniper far, far away with the lawbringer to try to keep the shots on target

faint beacon
#

Look I flew through the penance cause of crab maxing lmao

gilded wraith
#

Carapace or Unyielding?

somber axle
#

yeah this penance is surprisingly easy

#

I'm almost there

#

I'd have it done already but quickplay damnation has some funny people lately who need babysitting

#

surprisingly further along for the 500 krak kills than the Voice of Command penance

#

dreading voice of command penance because I dislike it so much

gilded wraith
#

That is suprising.

somber axle
#

it's a very boring survivability ability for me

#

very, very strong

#

it makes the game boring

old quail
#

(do not ask how)

somber axle
#

in the same vein as Plasma/Power Sword

#

the game becomes a cakewalk

#

I'd rather it be a crabwalk

gilded wraith
#

Turn it into a mini game... see how many enemies you can shout off of places.

candid agate
#

i really want to find a way to make my veteran look like venom snake from mgsv

somber axle
#

the infiltrator and smoke nade penance cosmetics could be good fits

i was more thinking about the face

the krak penance got me this

btw guys is anyone experiancing a glitch where my veterans helmet goes randomly yellow painted

old quail
#

it took me 37 minutes in total

#

probably 15 just spent at the end meleeing the constant trash spawns (nothing else spawns once you're allowed to leave)

trim steppe
#

I've been doing that during normal events for 1-2 mins at a time, usually get like 400 per mission the last 4 missions, i'll be done in no time

grizzled pebble
#

You can do it yourself with many more tries mod.

#

Solo penance took 35 mins for 2.5k kills.

#

Relay station mid event is good for it. Fast to get there.

#

Just watch for specials though if you do it there. Go into one of the hut and spam the door.

umbral scaffold
#

I like voice of command, but it’s ain’t as fun compared to executioners stance and double charge infiltrate

#

I either like going crazy in ranged combat or running into a group of shooters with a combat blade

mess up with those and die

I did a bunch of annoying penances that way.

Like psyker bubble, vet 2500 kills.

Yeah this woulda been super useful to have months ago lol. Better late than never I guess!

grizzled pebble

You can do psyker monster kill penance that way too without asking others for help.

They lower it to 50% now I think?

i wonder why psword 6's stab deals so much damage

Meme lawbringer build will get you a lot if your ok with shooting hoards

Oh nvm, I see the "save mission" thing now. Gotcha

austere pine

either of these good at milk's place?

#

wait the 13g is like the perfect horde clearer

terse idol

I mean you never take infested/groaner

austere pine
#

but imagine the horde clear with that thing..!

wanton dawn
#

Horde of groaner and walker are not dangerous though

austere pine
#

what if they are, though?

wanton dawn
#

The problem is the meaty mauler in the middle blocking cleave

And its not like poxwalkers have much health

wanton dawn
austere pine
#

that's it. i'm doing a vape nation build

normal spruce
#

Auric Maelstrom genuinely requires communicating teammates, we have been fighting for so long while the tree destroying objective requires a repair, everybody who tries to repair the objective instead of constantly horde clearing gets obliterated, we could have just had one teammate go do the repair and the rest protect them, but since nobody talks to each other, we all died lol

Your better off taking +infested and +unarmored then +groaners

Ppl will figure it out

#

Hiw do you do that new mini game btw? KEKW_ogryn

dreamy vortex
#

Haven't done the new Hab Dreyko yet though

nocturne hazel
#

Ive always found the concept of the mauler as an enemy funny, like with crusher putting an ogryn head to toe in armor with a hammer makes sense, but mauler is just like 'yea gimme an axe and a welding mask i got this'

# dreamy vortex Idk I've done plenty with no comms

How did you manage to clear the new heretic tree destroying objective? I imagine there was some kind of communication or understanding to have one teammate do the objective while the rest protect that teammate

grizzled pebble
umbral scaffold
#

New Hab Dreyko?

#

What’s that about?

idle swallow
#

No more scanning random crap everywhere at the tree, you do 3 new minigame things at the tree directly

#

One new minigame 3 times

umbral scaffold
#

Is that the auspex scanning one?

normal spruce
#

Yeah that one, you insert some kind of drill into the tree and the drill periodically gets broken which you have to repair it to continue the objective, the mini-game has you guess circles and wait to see which one turns white.

umbral scaffold
#

Damnn

#

“Rejects, get the thermal drill”

idle swallow

Yea kinda

the vape nation build screw yall

just in case they do attack me, yknow

I brought the vape nation loadout into aurics for the penance I don't even care

umbral scaffold
#

Yeah

#

Hoping the next new update changes some skills

#

Like I kinda don’t like how skirmisher drops all its stacks or needs like half a second of sprinting to refresh or gain a stack

i assure u dropping these smokes on every poxwalker spawn is assisting the team

I just had one of the most fun missions

really feeling like I'm playing my FF14 healer today

umbral scaffold
#

Is that the toughness healing build?

faint beacon
umbral scaffold
#

I’ve kinda seen you post that

somber axle
#

nah I'm still doing my silly Lawbringer Manstopper Scattershot build since I'm still farming the penance

umbral scaffold
#

What penance?

somber axle
#

just a few hundred kills away from Marksman's Focus 10 stack kill completion

umbral scaffold
#

Ooo

somber axle
#

I don't want to endanger my squad by just special shot spamming into hordes when specials/elites are running rampant and people are down

#

so I'm getting very little progress these past few matches

#

BUT THE GOOD NEWS

crude fiber
somber axle
#

I did get Reassuringly Accurate IV for the Mk II Laspistol to make the healer build that little bit better

somber axle
#

I can't meme if I'm trying to keep everyone safe

crude fiber
somber axle
#

I am still a Recon main

crude fiber
#

Or was it on any crit kill?

somber axle
#

I just also made a Veteran medic build

#

Any crit kill

midnight totem
#

Nice

crude fiber
#

Ok so not TOO bad

somber axle
#

My friends think I am insane and they are correct

midnight totem
#

Not insane yet until you get all crafting up to 90

somber axle
#

BUT ALSO THAT MEDIC BUILD...

midnight totem
#

I haven't done crafting

#

All I do in ffxiv is pvp

#

Occasional raid

#

Oh hey we are both in the same pvp server

somber axle
#

the idea is that through confirmed kill, covering fire and crit stacking through Deadshot with Reassuringly Accurate I can spam shots into crowds and constantly pump toughness regen into a team

midnight totem
#

Nice pistol

somber axle
#

does the team need a sudden quick tiny burst of toughness regen?

#

swap to melee to proc

#

with constant Voice of Command spam to keep toughness healing and healthy too

midnight totem
#

I like it. Support vet

#

Team should never go down in that, minus crusher overheads

somber axle
#

Focus Target with Target Down would be more team stam/toughness regen but I prefer Weapon Specialist for the massive ranged attack speed boost it gives the Mk II

#

so I can spam shots with it faster, force more crits faster and regen toughness to the team faster

midnight totem
#

Also a guaranteed crit

somber axle
#

yes exactly

#

I'm just playing FF14 healer sometimes in Darktide

midnight totem
#

Still outdps most people

somber axle
#

I've learned to compulsively check healthbars during fights from MMORPGs anyway so I might as well put it to use

midnight totem
#

Such is healer life

somber axle
#

yeah LMFAO

#

wait hold on

#

need to cover up the steam names

#

I always forgor

midnight totem
#

Haha

somber axle
#

ok there we go

#

this was with the medic laspistol build

crude fiber
#

Does the bonus toughness regen stacks node from marksman focus effect toughness regen weapon blessings?

somber axle
#

no idea for sure but Born Leader says any toughness I replenish and works even if I'm at max toughness for regen on squadmates

#

I've not really tested it in a match with a friend to verify

#

I just do a quick swap when I glance and see squad is low on toughness assuming it is giving them a little chunk back

umbral scaffold
# somber axle

The ammo efficiency with the las crit not using ammo talent goes hard

#

Is it called shocktrooper?

somber axle
#

Yeah

#

My fav Vet talent

#

I use it with every lasgun build

umbral scaffold
#

Yeah

somber axle
#

Helbore, Recon, Kantrael Infantry Lasguns, Laspistols

#

it's really good for all of them

umbral scaffold
#

Survivalist nerf and bug fix makes it way better

somber axle
#

I'm not even using Survivalist anymore and not feeling the sting of low ammo on my Lasguns in matches

balmy flume
#

Right, time for some PUG roulette.
And switching out Toughness Regen for pure Toughness where applicable

somber axle
#

well

umbral scaffold
#

Yeah, I mainly use the movement speed one

somber axle
#

My Recon build still uses it I guess

umbral scaffold
#

What’s the other called?

umbral scaffold
#

Fire Team?

somber axle
midnight totem
#

Recons can be forgiven for needing survivalist

somber axle
#

I do always use Shocktrooper with any lasgun build I run

balmy flume
#

Ah ok

somber axle
#

Polymorph and WHM Ult feel silly

umbral scaffold
#

I kinda want to make a similar team support build with a revolver 30% toughness regen talent on elites

#

But the las pistol seems more available on any crit headshot

somber axle
#

I like doing MCH in PvP for the funny wombo combo snipe ult with explosive charges and shotgun to 100-0 most people

midnight totem
#

WHM used to be even more broken

#

Still the best playmaker healer

somber axle
#

Yeah they were

balmy flume
#

Right.
Shredders, change toughness regen to pure toughness on curios…
…then it is PUG roulette time.

somber axle
#

vs like

midnight totem
#

I play mostly on Primal, Ultros

umbral scaffold
somber axle
#

Laspistol Mk II wants Ghost/Dum Dum/Infernus

#

and tbh I can more easily justify losing Ghost by being a breakdancing clown

midnight totem
#

But I have a Crystal, Mateus alt

somber axle
#

just slide dodge to avoid enemy fire

#

I don't need the Infernus IV burn damage on medic build

#

so I just Dum Dum

#

head empty healer brain always

midnight totem
#

That reminds me

somber axle
midnight totem
#

Stripped down works with getting the dodge Reaper and gunner fire penance right?

umbral scaffold
#

I just use 3 stamina curios with sprint efficiency, stamina regen and ordo docket bonus, I’d use combat ability cd if I were to swap out ordo dockets

somber axle
#

here you go

#

but you don't need to engage in triple stam curio clownishness

#

I do this because I have the most fun feeling like my skin is paper and my bones are glass

umbral scaffold
#

It ain’t clowny

somber axle
#

I like being untouchable by sheer speed

umbral scaffold
#

More toughness takes longer to regen

somber axle
#

always dodge or block or shove or just reposition and be untouchable

#

though also yeah this build does have crazy toughness regen

#

so I don't think I really need the extra toughness or HP anyway

#

triple stam is for Deadshot min-maxing

umbral scaffold
#

Yeah, I kinda feel naked without the stamina

somber axle
#

you can kinda hip-fire the Laspistols fine tbh

umbral scaffold
#

Bro gets winded after 2 seconds

somber axle
#

Deadshot ADS with the Laspistol is just when I'm trying to force extra crits for more squad toughness regen

#

enter healer stance

#

LMFAO

balmy flume
#

Laspistols are actually very fun

umbral scaffold
#

Kinda wish the ability talents had those mandated nodes built in for more talent picks

somber axle
#

also really good synergy with Shocktrooper

#

free shots that heal

balmy flume
#

You genuinely feel like a movie action hero as you chop away with hordes, switch to Laspistol to shoot a Trapper in the head
Then continue chopping again.

umbral scaffold
#

Like executioners stance needing 2 talent points just to be decent is atrocious

umbral scaffold
#

The reset should be built in

hollow ibex
#

Should also get a reload on first activation imo

somber axle
#

it would make my Recon gun fire for literally forever when clearing specials with the 6 sec CD reduction on special kill talent

umbral scaffold
#

That should replace the reset

#

With the reset being innate

somber axle
#

just hit Exe Stance as it comes off CD whenever I am near low

#

and I can almost guaratee the devs know about this interaction and this is precisely why it was removed

#

LMFAO

umbral scaffold
#

Like I really miss the ammo reset

see if maybe that's better for general toughness regen when firing into targets

in a manner of 3 seconds, all of my teammates, consisting of 2 psykers and 1 other veteran, went down

and sorta mean you'd be able to ignore healing most times

they'd have to put it on something like Laspistols

Chorus is pretty damn strong on zealot I won’t lie

#

I think the real reason VOC also feels so strong is

somber axle
# candid agate they shouldnt nerf VOC they should make the other abilities just as good

tbh gold toughness is very strong already and having full toughness restore, AoE stagger that can make a Burgle vomit a team mate and let you tank a poxburster or sniper and take 0 HP damage is already really powerful so there's not really a way to make the average player find Infiltrate or Executioner's Stance more attractive and I don't think the devs need to make either option more attractive tbh

Talents that give CD reductions

And a short CD already

# bitter mango lol those abilities are just dogshit They do need to make it more attractive

Nah Exe Stance is fine with the right weapons and talent build. It's much more useful for weapons that benefit immensely from the Recoil control and bonus damage to hit breakpoints like Boltgun which also can hip-fire burst 2 shots into a bulwark shield to pop it open with Exe Stance vs it takes 6 full shots to the shield without Exe Stance to do (unless you have max Pinning Fire stacks and a high 75%+ Collateral Boltgun in which case you can drop that down to 4 and even 4 shots is still awful ammo econ for just opening a Bulwark shield)

#

if you think the abilities are bad then you just don't have a playstyle that benefits from using them

dreamy vortex

you don't use weapons that would benefit from them

tbh I even respect VoC Vets who are not going for a support build and just using it as a survivability tool

it's kinda funny with how shady Melk is blackmailing Hallowette for the prismata crystal mission that he doesn't get along better with Loose Cannon who definitely seems more into the criminal element but probably because the Loose Cannon is too obvious about it while Melk at least wants the appearance of a Professional

Get a Lawbringer Shotgun with the Manstopper blessing (rank 2 only gives increased cleave on crit) and the Scattershot blessing (aim for rank 3 or rank 4 extra crit for more targets hit) and use standard headshots with it to get 10 stacks then start loading special shots in for the wise horizontal pattern and fire into hordes to evaporate them
