Stacks with melee base 5% too

astral blade
#

its out for blood numbskull

orchid hemlock
#

And since BL transfers that toughness to the rest of the team, assuming everyone is in coherency, they also get it

sinful swallow
#

O4B

orchid hemlock
snow cypress
#

That's what i was saying lmao

#

i couldn't find it

last parcel
#

i think that's out of blood translated to some language

orchid hemlock
#

So not only do I get 400%, my entire team gets it. Which is 1600% toughness

sinful swallow
#

Well they get 15% of 400 x 3

snow cypress
#

and with CF it would be 1700

orchid hemlock
#

Oh yeah I forgot the 15%

sinful swallow
#

It wouldnt

snow cypress
#

yeah lol

orchid hemlock
#

No

astral blade
#

.....losing brain cells over here seriously what is this chat rn

snow cypress
#

I mean including all you said

orchid hemlock
orchid hemlock
snow cypress
orchid hemlock
#

When do you kill 20 elites with one plasma shot?

snow cypress
#

which is 60% to each allie

#

add this a 15 because you have CF

#

which is 75%

#

Ik it would not be to all

#

Because people spread

flint lake
orchid hemlock
#

No the hypothetical I created doesn't take into account that I kill any elites

#

Maybe a couple Idk

snow cypress
#

The 15% of CF does not change

#

if it's elite or not

#

I'm only saying that is not that bad

orchid hemlock
#

Yes but when are you killing trash with a range attack?

snow cypress
#

nope

orchid hemlock
#

So it has no synergy with CL

snow cypress
#

man,are you listering what I'm saying

snow cypress
orchid hemlock
#

CF sorry

astral blade
#

is this golden clown still still yapping?

snow cypress
elder dawn
#

is this good i've had it forever and forgot about it

orchid hemlock
#

The problem with CL is 2 issues:

1.) It does not proc on yourself

2.) It does not proc on mele kills

snow cypress
#

When am I saying it HAS

snow cypress
orchid hemlock
#

So if you are fighting a horde with your mele weapon, you get nothing.

If you shoot thru the horde with your plasma weapon, not only are you wasting ammo, you better hope your entire team is close to that beam

snow cypress
#

Ok,see this.You are saying that one issue of CF is that it has no synergy with BL.But I'm saying you with numbers that the change it would make to CF to have synergy with Bl it would be so low,so having this into account is not that relevant to CF to have synergy.Do you understand me now?

snow cypress
#

It more a complementary talent

orchid hemlock
#

stop

#

If you say that one more time I'm literally going to dip

junior needle
#

Yeah the gist is that it encourages you to do things that you shouldn't normally be doing to get any value out of it, and getting value out of it additionally requires some very particular circumstances

snow cypress
#

When am I saying it has?

#

Why would I fire my precious plasma ammo into a trash horde?

#

Let me ask you that

snow cypress
#

When a I saying that?

#

Are you reading what do I say?

#

.

orchid hemlock
#

OK if you are not shooting the plasma gun into a horde, the value you get in comparison to out for blood is non existant

junior needle
#

It technically gives your teammates toughness, but yeah it doesn't give benefit from born leader

orchid hemlock
#

Every kill I get I get 5%

#

So 15% of that is given to my team

snow cypress
#

Learn to read

orchid hemlock
#

I use my power sword or whatever, awesome I slaughter a horde and give a bunch of toughness to my team

snow cypress
#

Thanks for understand me(i think)

junior needle
#

So the thing is, 15% of 5% is still quite low

snow cypress
junior needle
#

Even if you're killing 4 units every swing with BM psword

#

And additionally it's chip value

snow cypress
#

Soldier 69 tell you understood me please

junior needle
#

Whereas toughness is lost in huge chunks

snow cypress
#

Or am I crazy?

junior needle
#

I haven't been paying attention to the conversation much, I'm playing deeprock atm KEKW_ogryn

junior needle
#

Sounds like a communication failure

snow cypress
junior needle
#

Relax guys

snow cypress
#

totally

orchid hemlock
#

No it isn't tbh

#

The value you get from CF is extremely conditional

snow cypress
#

I'm just trying to say my opinion and they are not listening just repeating the same thing

orchid hemlock
#

Maybe the reason why I am repeating the same retort is because you keep repeating the same argument

#

🧠

astral blade
snow cypress
#

It is important?It is

#

Enough to not use it?,i don't think so

orchid hemlock
#

I understand that it gives toughness on plasma kill, that's cool and all.

But why would I waste 2 nodes on an extremely conditional node that I could be using in more synergy with BL?

#

Because the way I use plasma is I primarily use it to kill elites form afar

#

Not near anyone most of the time

snow cypress
orchid hemlock
#

No it doesn't, it only gives 15% toughness if someone is 5 meters away from the targets you kill

snow cypress
snow cypress
orchid hemlock
#

And again it does not proc on yourself, so even if you faceplant yourself into a crusher's ass, it will give you 0% value

snow cypress
#

Idk your teams but at least in my teams everybody keeps more or less near

#

Near enough to maybe be inside the area of the talent

orchid hemlock
#

Yes they are near each other, but not necessarily near the targets you are shooting at

orchid hemlock
#

No

snow cypress
#

in hallways and stairs

orchid hemlock
#

????

granite kestrel
#

So it’s useless if you’re not in a hallway or stairwell?

snow cypress
orchid hemlock
#

So basically you are telling me that when everyone is crushed like sardines together, then it becomes useful?

granite kestrel
#

At which point, is melee because you’re at/in a choke point .

snow cypress
#

Most part of the maps are that

orchid hemlock
#

Ngl I don't think it's a good idea to be near half of the elites in this game

#

I do not want my team near 20 crushers

#

I do not want my team near 20 ragers

snow cypress
orchid hemlock
#

OK so the plasma gun is good at killing primary targets

#

So why would I waste the precious ammo on a horde?

granite kestrel
#

If it works for you…then keep slaying my friend

snow cypress
#

a horde OF

granite kestrel
#

Technically, we’re reading

#

Not listening

snow cypress
snow cypress
#

my bad lmao

orchid hemlock
#

I don't honestly even know what hypothetical you are generating here

snow cypress
#

no one

#

lmao

#

At least i use plasma to kill horde of elites that are comming and range enemies

#

For normal hordes I use the axe with the push attack

orchid hemlock
#

I still don't get it

snow cypress
#

._.

junior haven
#

Do you really want to think about it more?

snow cypress
#

At least for me is not that difficult to understand

orchid hemlock
#

So basically if every engagement is a perfect scenario of you being able to line up a perfect shot into a bunch of shotgunners, then you get full value of CF?

snow cypress
#

You're not paying attention

orchid hemlock
#

Well I don't think you can cleave thru crushers or maulers with the plasma gun, that's why I chose shotgunners

snow cypress
orchid hemlock
#

Idk I don't even think it would be possible to cleave thru 20 shotgunners

junior haven
snow cypress
#

I think i'm not expressing my idea that bad,no?

#

Or is it me?

junior haven
#

I wouldn't run it but play how you want.

#

Actually wait. I do have a support vet build that runs it and I shoot into squads when I see people getting rocked by whatever. Its very niche.

snow cypress
orchid hemlock
#

It is a bad idea, because you will not get the value you are creating in your mind

#

Idk, wasting 2 nodes like that to me is a hard pass 🤷🏻

junior haven
#

The emperor gave me bullets to kill heretics. I'll shoot into mobs. Whatever.

sinful swallow
#

Just use glory on plasma

snow cypress
#

This talent would just be a complement to increase my toughness generation

snow cypress
orchid hemlock
#

I swear to christ

junior haven
#

You're circling it man. Let it go.

snow cypress
orchid hemlock
#

You only generate toughness if you kill something near a teammate

#

That's a very big IF

snow cypress
#

and that's why I use a ranged/melee build

#

Or at least i use it as if

snow cypress
#

I'm saying you that for 1h

#

What I don't agree on is about the synergy stuff

snow cypress
#

I'm not saying it's perfect

#

Of course I won't make a perfect or even a good build,however it's just a suggestion to put on

orchid hemlock
#

The point I was making is that wasting 2 points on CF when there are other nodes that are significantly more consistent

snow cypress
#

You could also think and I agree on the cost of 2 nodes

orchid hemlock
#

CF is just bad

#

For generating toughness

#

In practice

snow cypress
#

Probably it's because we use plasma gun different

orchid hemlock
#

Sure in a perfect scenerio where your teammates are always near the targets you shoot at, it has value

#

Unfortunately that very rarely happens

snow cypress
#

At least in most of my gameplays people stay melee near enemies

#

and elites

#

(not gunner and that stuff)

orchid hemlock
#

It also doesn't happen as often as you think, because even a focus vet probably is meleing most of the time

junior haven
#

I'm just curious. How many times do y'all think you've repeated points of arguments in the last hour?

snow cypress
#

too many

#

probably more than 8

#

or 10

hearty panther
#

i have made no points and am so far the victor

snow cypress
#

At least for me CF in a mixed ranged/melee build could be at least a decent option

#

I don't say a good option or the BEST option

junior haven
#

If you like it and you win thats all that matters at the end of the day.

snow cypress
#

The worst part is that I have not proved it

#

I was just trying to talk about it

orchid hemlock
snow cypress
#

But i just entered in an argument

junior haven
#

Ugh those thighs.

snow cypress
#

lol

trim nova
#

I just got to level 30 what do I do now?

junior needle
#

It needs a redesign, talents shouldn't encourage you to do bad things

orchid hemlock
#

Do you like gambling?

junior needle
#

Hopefully fatshark learned a lesson from crabwalking

snow cypress
#

I hate it

austere mica
#

Day ??? If trying to find Manstopper

trim nova
austere mica
#

Still unsuccessful

snow cypress
#

I bought like 25 knifes to have a good knife,not even the best :[

#

And those are only the ones i upgraded

austere mica
#

Mine is missing like 20 finesse or something but is still pretty good

snow cypress
#

I hate crafting

orchid hemlock
#

Why do you need a knife on Psyker?

#

Unless you are going insane and doing 3 stamina nodes ☠️

snow cypress
#

lmao

#

I use stealth vet

orchid hemlock
#

Oh mb this is vet chat 😔

snow cypress
#

lol

trim nova
#

this is my best gun

orchid hemlock
#

Well tbh, vet also isn't in hard demand on a knife

snow cypress
#

and I have thid FUCKING AXE AND I DON'T GET THE DAMM BLESS

late hatch
#

IDK how many brunts Ive rolled, or how many of my friends have quit the game instead of installing mods to make crafting at least not incredibly painful

snow cypress
#

They should rework it

orchid hemlock
#

Don't worry Fatshark will fix it

#

inhales copium

late hatch
#

Getting a godly statline and then getting a brick is one of the worst experiences

orchid hemlock
#

I don't even know how you fix something this shit

snow cypress
#

Oh thanks god...i mean FOR THE EMPEROR!!

orchid hemlock
#

They have released absolutely nothing 😔

snow cypress
#

i hope they fix it soon

orchid hemlock
#

No ideas, no leaks, no progression

late hatch
#

Lets people trade their grind for incremental improvements, instead of relying on rng

orchid hemlock
snow cypress
#

Is painful to use 3k plasteel to not get your blessing lvl 4

orchid hemlock
#

All 4 of them

#

That's it, it then is fixed

#

You will still need to grind for reblessings, and decent stats on the weapon

late hatch
orchid hemlock
#

The difference between "god" and regular is soo slim

#

Make it so that the skill "expression" is knowing what blessings and perks to add onto your gear

#

Most people don't know wtf they are doing anyways

snow cypress
#

yeah

#

That's right

late hatch
#

Yeah but like grinding for rewards is motivating. Having an end game dump that costs like 5k plas and 2k diamantine to get +1 random stat, or similar price to remove a lock lets people work towards the best weapons without just giving them away

snow cypress
#

But is frustating af

orchid hemlock
late hatch
#

I think the blessing system is one of the worst parts of crafting. Either each weapon family should have an experience bar that unlocks higher tier blessings as you rank up, or they should just be level locked. Having to roll dozens of trash weapons to farm blessings is just bad

late hatch
snow cypress
#

Is it bad if I like krak grenade?

#

I don't like shredder

orchid hemlock
#

Smoke gang rise up ✊🏻

snow cypress
#

Well yeah

#

I like smoke one

#

I use it in my stealth build

orchid hemlock
junior needle
#

Shreds are much more versatile

#

Especially with rending sources

junior haven
#

Smoke is tough to love.

#

I use it on my infil build, but its rough.

snow cypress
#

smoke is at the beggining quite weird

#

At least that happened to me

orchid hemlock
snow cypress
#

Later is a very useful tool to avoid that ass pain enemies called shooters,gunners and shotgunners

astral blade
astral blade
#

who gave the clown permission to speak

snow cypress
#

when you're typing here

orchid hemlock
#

Just sayin

#

🚶🏻

orchid hemlock
#

I use smoke to make sure my teammates that never dodged a gunner in their life take 50% less damage

junior haven
#

I like to think I use them as effectively as I can, but I genuinely wish for a frag over it 50% of the time

orchid hemlock
#

I think it's useful, taking into account that 99% of the people who play this game are absolute dogwater

junior haven
#

literally listened to a dude rant about it for the entirety of the assassination end boss today

#

"you cant see it man its so shit you should change it"

#

"it makes it harder for everyone its so fucking garbage"

orchid hemlock
#

Where they a Zealot player?

junior haven
#

had to mute the dude. no, ogryn

orchid hemlock
#

Most Ogryn players always have shit takes because they like to unintentionally roleplay them

late hatch
#

It does have a rather large drawback for precision shooting, but smokes can be very good when a million shooters pop out from every corner and start peppering you

junior haven
#

im not here to judge people for their character choices thats lame

#

talking shit for a solid two minutes about how dog shit smokes are is also lame

late hatch
#

There are some good ogryns, but yeah, lots of them seem to think that acting dumb = RP as ogryn

junior needle
#

They did make it much harder to deal with gunners last time I played

orchid hemlock
#

Problem with DT atm is that the majority of players are first timers from a sale, or coming back because of an update.

So they go into my damnation games downing every 10 seconds 😔

junior haven
#

Is that so bad? Really? Players learning the game? Thats rough.

orchid hemlock
#

It is when it's in my auric damnation runs

#

There is no shame lowering the difficulty

junior haven
#

You must be mlg

orchid hemlock
#

Nah, I actually know how to aim chadgryn

junior haven
#

Good for you man.

orchid hemlock
#

But the thing is, how do they even get by normal runs?

#

They can't be finishing runs playing like that

junior haven
#

Couldnt tell you. I dont empathize with your problem.

orchid hemlock
#

But do they actually enjoy not even playing the game?

#

They literally are dead more than they are playing

rigid pilot
#

They enjoy the krieg cosmetics they bought

orchid hemlock
#

That doesn't sound fun imo 😔

rigid pilot
#

That's good enough for our friend fatshark

orchid hemlock
#

Tru

junior haven
#

I dont lose sweat about other peoples fun.

orchid hemlock
#

The game does have a very difficult initial curve tho

#

I can understand why people develop bad habits

#

Like jumping to dodge a crusher overhead ☠️

#

Or never blocking

rigid pilot
#

Dodge and jump tgt is the worst

orchid hemlock
#

Wait is that a thing?

#

For me it's shift for dodge, space bar to jump

white minnow
#

it's the default sadly

#

so that's what a lot of people are running

orchid hemlock
#

Wait what, I didn't change those hot keys

white minnow
#

and the default behavior of the keybind is devious (you always jump if your dodge is in cooldown)

orchid hemlock
#

Is that console?

white minnow
#

nah M+KB as well

orchid hemlock
#

I'm confused

white minnow
#

you prob changed them and didn't remember

orchid hemlock
#

I'm pretty sure ei didn't change anything movement wise

#

I only changed the equipment hot keys

#

I moved marking to my mouse

#

And alt attack

#

But that's it

midnight totem
#

games are just not going well tonight

orchid hemlock
#

Skulls sale and it's consequences 😔

fleet thicket
#

I thought bayonet on helbore was a meme

#

It seems like it's not it actually kills muties so fast

snow cypress
orchid hemlock
#

It's nice that new players are joining, but I have a feeling that there is little retention 😔

orchid hemlock
white minnow
snow cypress
#

So you use shift to run and dodge?

orchid hemlock
#

Yes

snow cypress
#

Oh

fleet thicket
#

Yeah I do too

white minnow
#

dodge on shift is def the best keybind to have it on

orchid hemlock
#

Because you can only run forward, and you cannot dodge forward

snow cypress
#

I unfortunately use default and I jump :[

white minnow
#

cuz you're going to be dodging all the time and your thumb is free to do whatever

snow cypress
#

I wanna change my keys

#

Because that sucks

white minnow
#

another game required me to use my pinky a lot so i was fine with using shift for dodge

orchid hemlock
snow cypress
#

Maybe?

#

Whoever had the idea of using space bar to jump and dodge and thought it was a good idea should go to hell

orchid hemlock
#

Tbh u don't jump very often in this game

white minnow
#

space has always been the default

orchid hemlock
#

Jumping is only useful for traversing over objects

#

That's it

snow cypress
#

Yeah

white minnow
#

it's just the default behavior that's really devious

#

because it makes you jump if your dodge is in cooldown no matter what

#

and there's no option to change this

orchid hemlock
#

But it's soo strange because I honestly don't remember changing that hot key

white minnow
#

prob just such a natural change that you didn't think much of it

snow cypress
#

Probably

#

Bad things tend to be forgotten

orchid hemlock
#

Maybe, but I feel like I remember my hot keys well

ugh ok smokes are used against shooters like i said either forcing the shooters to either reposition or run through the smoke and into melee range

orchid hemlock
#

OK so smoke grenades are useful when you want to BLAZE it

snow cypress

The problem is that smoke doesn't hide you from snipers

Like legit I was out running a knife guy before I ran out of stamina xD

The true clown way to counter a sniper is to look them in the eyes and let them shoot you just so you can see their despair when your toughness eats the whole sniper shot

If only mark 3 also had the same bayonet as Mark 2 and 1

snow cypress

I don't use bayonet because my aim sucks

I mean

snow cypress

But it's really strong

fleet thicket

You just get use to it man

Just have to use it you automatically build the muscle memory

And when I use a range weapon always the fatty orgy gets in the middle -_-

It’s just bad design

you will see i was right 🙂

snow cypress

That's why I hate ogryns when I play vet

Now why does it even exists

snow cypress

Just imagine if there was friendly damage omg all my ally ogryns would be more dead than the emperor

or get clowned on

But still the only thing that gives bad rept to smoke is

#

The players who smoke their own goddam team

I like using focus target to ping targets so I can see the outline even behind poxwalkers/friendly players and keep firing until the target goes down

Like holy hell man that thing staggers gunners smoke the enemy !

You’re usually meant to drop smoke on ur own position

astral blade

It’s basically Psyker’s bubble shield but different flavour

astral blade

actually listen to a infiltrate vet WHO KNOWS WHAT THE FUCK HE TALKING ABOUT

fleet thicket
#

Please don't do that

snow cypress
#

Man shut you mouth

fleet thicket
#

The smoke I'm telling you is like a wall

tall torrent
#

Throwing smoke on gunners already firing at u does effectively nothing
They’ll get staggered for a very brief moment then continue firing at u (tracking u) no problem

fleet thicket
#

Enemy will get staggered then they have to run to you to see you again

#

If you smoke your own team you could get them killed

snow cypress

I only saw a non actualized guide

You really suck

I run either rashad axe or chainaxe with aggrpinia infintry autogun

# snow cypress 4 weapon of 30?

There are three variants of Helbore and all can cleave. There are other guns with some cleave value like Recon Mk VIIa, Agripina Infantry Autogun and Agripina Braced Autogun though I'm unsure if those have enough cleave to shoot through a friendly player

tall torrent
#

The stagger window is so short it basically doesn’t matter

somber axle

But Revolver, Plasma, all three Helbores and Agripina Slugs can for sure

Cuz I do the veteran guide KEKW_ogryn

#

U can try to do a smoke wall

It use to stagger

My theory is that they changed that behavior when they made gunners/reapers stop shooting

Did they remove that ?

You don't need to rev for ragers or gunners

The push attack is also really good for sniping heads

mk4 chainaxe can light spam vs single targets for fairly good single target, but it's probably slower on carapace without thunderous

No, finesse, weakspot and crit go into same additive

FS arcane mathematics

The only +dmg bonus I remember being weirdly multiplicative is “Close DMG”

Don't forget you have melee though

And you can still use it quite effectively

You should be able to rely on your team to handle shooters as an ogryn while you cleanup the melee stuff

somber axle
# earnest sand Yeah but can he do high difficulty?

Yes. I'm a clown. I've run literally the worst weapons through Auric Damnation difficulty. I've run Shredder Autopistol. I've run Recon Mk II. I main the Recon Mk VId. Veteran is a very strong, versatile class that can be played any difficulty with any loadout. Just be careful about ranged focused builds on no ammo maelstrom with bad ammo economy because that's an extra hard mode on top of hard mode LOL

Ok, another question. Sorry

#

Now i got a chainsword, upgraded it to purple

#

how do i get a blessing on it now? the one i just got from turning the old one in?

junior needle
#

To get the second slot, you'd upgrade to gold

#

Or you could craft the blessing as is, but that isn't recommended

native cave
#

Ohhh i see. The blessing are "locked" untill i earn the exact blessing by turning it in. If i get a new weapon with that blessing, it activates?

junior needle
#

You can't craft the blessing unless you scrap a weapon for it, yes

#

But anything on a weapon will work as is

native cave
#

Ok. Example:
The new chainsword got "75 cleave on a crit" - could i change it to another blessing?

junior needle
#

Yes, but you only get two changes currently

#

So you have to weigh your options

#

After the two changes, the unchanged slots lock

I want Bloodletter and Shred on it

I dont have them currently

What variant is this?

wdym variant?

There's different kinds of variants of the same family line

There's two chainswords currently

#

13g and mk4

native cave
#

13g

junior needle
#

The particulars of each weapon is different

#

The 13g NEEDS wrath, due to being a light spammer

#

This is because light attacks have lower cleave values than heavy attacks (generally)

native cave
#

where can i check what blessing i have? so i can check if ihave wrath=

#

can you come voice real quick maybe? :

#

😄

junior needle

You can check it in at hadron wherever it lets you change the blessing

#

Cannot at the moment

#

There's a pdf guide in the pins with pretty good info on what you generally want on each weapon

#

At least as far as vet is concerned

#

It's currently being updated

native cave
#

im pretty new, just hit lvl 28 and got a solid setup i think. But i never checked crfting and refining and all that really

junior needle
#

You shouldn't really until you hit 30

native cave
#

Oh okay

junior needle
#

As the base modifiers for weapons in the shops scale with your level

#

So for example, you could get 250-330 at 24 or something

#

And then you'll get 300-380 at 30

native cave
#

Ahhh i see

#

so turn 30, then get into upgrading and stuff?

Yes
