Remind yourself that we're still rejects
At the beginning yeah
And I agree, where's my melta, fatshark. Give it to zealouts so I can stop using a flamer for anti armor.
Still are
First target is the most important stat on any weapon that has it as a stat
We're just renamed to acolytes
No, you are forever branded a reject.
You will forever be expendable.
That's how it works.
You might be an asset, but remember that assets are expendable.
we're forever expendable we just hold value cause we actually get important missions done
we're basically setenced to a prolonged death
Regardless, an elite guardsman and the most skilled ministorum priest aren't on the level of a fucking psyker and an ogryn
when we die? could be now
could be in 10 years with working for Grendyl
all about luck
Its the imperium. EVERYONE is expendable
Even Space Marines
Which is very funny because DT veteran is at the very least equal to those 2
Custodes, maybe not
This is true.
custodes are the only people in the imperium that aren't expendable
true
The DT vet is nothing to sneeze at.
He or she has fought their entire life, same as a zealout, to prove that they're worth something.
The DT vet is basically a storm trooper tbh
The avg tempestus scion does not 1v1 a plague ogryn and win without taking any dmg
A DT vet is more like irl special forces.
Besides a Plauge ogryn would walk near them and they'd all instantly wither up and die
And yeah, a tempestus scion has a good chance of losing to a plague ogryn.
recall Ogryn's are very hardy
Guard power scaling is just so weird
We can assign origin to our characters right?
Our characters, on the other hand, are capable of fighting them without a scratch.
see here: anyone in the Tanith 1st
Its video games to be fair, if it was actual cannon we'd die in like a second if the Plogryn even remotely got near us
lmao
Isn't there like choice to make your veteran be part of elite regiment before getting booted to jail?
the DT vet can be a part of the schola so either a scion or commissar since they have no voice lines regarding the navy, But DT fucks the lore up (who cares lol)since either of those prob wouldn't be uber punished even by a corrupt official.
You want something to be afraid of? One of our psykers that loses their psi collar could be unstoppable.
Here’s the neat part, DT is canon
Yeah.
you are still rejects, a expendable individual used by inquisitors to do their bidding.
then again in warhammer everyone is used as a expendable comoddity
Therefore there canonically exists a group of guardsmen that can 1v1 plague Ogryns on the daily
Either that, or the purity seals we're taking into combat are wildly powerful.
I seriously want an april fools difficulty where periling on Psyker just spawns a beast of Nurgle
Nurgle weeping as his cultist make the most pathetic diseases known to his garden
daemonhosts*
For April fools they should make brain rupture work as testicular torsion for a day
Or... because we are part of the inquisiton (and with the way warp fuckery works, believing something makes it real, yada yada) that could be protecting us.
And have the psyker yell “testicular torsion”
playing without a rebreather of somesort causes you to constantly take corruption damage near poxwalkers
Pysker blows up and spawns 40 plaguebearers/nurglings or bloodletters
idk what othe bullshittery would happen
ahriman my beloved
Everyone is expendable when it comes to comparing any life vs the Emperor's. There is no cost too great to pay to ensure his continued survival and even the Primarchs are expendable compared to him considering how much he is holding together behind the scenes vs the Chaos Gods. If the Emperor falls Mankind dies with him (or at least that's my understanding of things in 40k)
also poxwalker technically spreads plague through their groaning so we're kinda immune to that or something
April fools update where if a Daemonhost spawns it instantly agroes on the person who's the closest to it within 50m's
If only the thousand sons weren't turned to ash because magnus left them to their own devices for approximately 15 minutes.
Plogryn's instantly kill, and Beasts instantly kill you if they eat you
even his life is expendable, remember its the guy who tortured himself for 10k years on a electric chair
Im just going off of the emperor himself has said, he himself sees the stodes as not expendable, but the custodes themselves don't care about their lives if it means his survival
He still lives even in such a decayed form. If he ever truly dies there's really no one who could ever do what he does
Look if the emperor up and died, Im just saying Eye of terror 2 electric boogaloo is going to happen
He can't even truly die. He's a perpetual.
I think there is a line somewhere of emps stating that he will sacrifice a legion of space marines to save a custodes or something close to that
it is said that the emperor is keep dying and reviving on that place, so who knows what's what. he's a perpetual afterall
that and well, humans cant travel the warp safely anymore
Its a very old quote
so like damn...
Malcador is a perpetual and he’s like dead dead
he sat on the golden throne
He also thinks the Empire is doomed iirc. I vaguely remember an excerpt where a Custodes asks what next and the Emperor goes "idk the future is lost and I can no longer see a certain fate for humanity"
so the emperor could fight horus
got fried up by the golden throne
Oh right he took big E's seat.
Turned to ash on golden throne from holding off the combined might of 4 chaos gods
Yeah that'd fry your soul.
Perpetual or not, if you aren't a strong enough psyker, you would die from that.
No he sacrificed himself iirc for the emperor, it was- honestly its a bit foggy for me there I just know he did it for big E
yeah the emperor near the end of the horus heresy was all doom and gloom and even now the moments he speaks are depressing and hateful
He is so vital to the continued survival of humanity that the Aeldari see him as the hope to maintain not only humanity's survival but their own in some stories
He is rightfully disappointed in how far his Empire has fallen
Aeldari with their love hate relationship with humanity
lmao
Well, that comes with the territory of what's her face being in nurgle's plague hot tub.
Their wish god... whatever her name is.
Harlequins are my fav
His interaction with Gman shows he kind of still cares in a weird sense but since he is so mentally destroyed now it's hard to tell
ye
i mean as a expendable as in he will try to sacrifice himself to keep the humanity alive(which is the golden throne) but as of current he cannot be replaced by any
magnus had a chance of replacing to be the warp battery but yknow
Actual space clowns that will slice your throat in a nanosecond
You know what would 100% end the Imperium?
He's been brooding over the deaths and betrayal of his sons for 10 thousand years. He's definitely depressed as hell.
If AdMech declared Omnissiah above the Emperor and decided to go independent (they have all resourses to do exactly that)
Me irl
Ok maybe not the space part
Or the slice throats part
But at LEAST the clown part
Magnus isn't truly lost. He is looking for a way to get revenge on tzeentch right now.
||‘Guilliman.’ The voices overlaid, overlapped, became almost one, and Guilliman had a fleeting memory of a sad face that had seen too much, and a burden it could barely countenance. ‘Guilliman, hear me.
‘My last loyal son, my pride, my greatest triumph.’
How those words burned him, worse than the poisons of Mortarion, worse than the sting of failure. They were not a lie, not entirely. It was worse than that.
They were conditional.
‘My last tool. My last hope.’
A final drawing in of power, a thought expelled like a dying breath.
‘Guilliman…’|| godblight spoilers
looking at ahriman, magnus provably is stupid enough to believe that killing the big E is the way to get revenge on the Tzzench
I doubt it.
He isn't insane and doesn't even have the power to kill big E.
Even if he wanted to.
Magnus or Ahriman?
he kinda is? tzzench built him back in his image after his souls got shattered into million bits
The only character that can maybe actually kill the emperor is the null blank
Because Magnus absolutely couldnt
Ahriman
Ahriman might be able to if he ever gets his Black Library card to work
eh just cut off the life support and the whole place would crumble
Ahriman's whole thing is knowledge. And trying to get into one of the Black Libraries
I mean like, actually kill him off completely, no respawns
Bro is fiending for eldar knowledge
ah.
This argument would all be moot if the best character in the setting was still alive
Sanguinius
My boy!
hes best cause he died
sanguinius is awesome
If only he wouldn't have died to prove a point...
Sanguinius is technically still around through the sanguinor
Didn’t sanguinius’s soul come back for like 30 seconds to revive Dante when he was about to give up
Not really
Sanguinius is a warp entity
Im pretty sure the only perma dead primarch is horus since his soul gets put through the shredder
Or, more accurately, 2 of them
It's theorized that sanguinius is now a daemon.
He's FAR older than the Imperium
Though "daemon" isn't really the proper term.
Sort of the same thing as a living saint.
He was a pair of lesser warp gods before being Sanguinius, and he's now a pair of lesser warp gods again
Minus the living part.
Yea sanguinius’s “soul” revived Dante in devastation of Baal
i think in recent books he got in? once? idk
its wierd really
He guides Mephiston through the warp. Its how Blood Angels can travel without the astronomicon
Anything involving Ahriman is weird
Wibbly wobbly timey wimey shit
idk magnus is wack, cant expect his best son to be more sane
I still cant get over the fact the Silent King spoke to him
Szarekh spoke to Dante?
He would probably gladly spend his life if it meant a true way to permanent peace and prosperity for humanity but that's an impossible gambit and not one he could arrange in any way while confined to the chair. He's sorta reliant on Guilliman to be his hand in guiding the rotting Empire to some semblance of a proper future
They were working on an alliance, iirc. The details havent been fleshed out
One day orikan the diviner is gonna time travel back and “accidentally” kill Erebus before he’s born
but yeah the writers keep setting up the "dead" primarchs to be around in some capacity, even FM came back during the HH in a spectral way to hold the webway gate iirc
Dante is my favorite character in the modern 40k setting
Yeah it was against a tyranid invasion, but its still pretty fucking huge he himself spoke to Dante
the only ones we haven't seen are Alpharius and Horus and Horus is giga dead
Horus got wiped from history.
One can only fucking hope. My brother is a massive Word Bearers fan
Alpharius the primarch got MK fatality’d
Comes with the territory of having the emperor's sword kill you.
Or was that Omegon?
fucking yay
all my homies hate erebus
Fuck Erebus
I still think Alpharius was the one to bite the dirt
Omegon is secretly alive somewhere
(I like Omegon better)
Ya'll have it backwards
ok i think i got a little over excited about the bolt pistol lol
I fucking love how stupid the Necrons are in like general with their power dude, Space boomers yelling at the kids (newest alien species) to get off their property
I don't know enough about the chaos legions to contribute to this conversation...
Alpharius and Omegon swapped places when they were found
Omegon became Alpharius, who was killed by Dorn
Scuse me... traitor legions, not just chaos legions. Don't know enough.
Alpharius became Omegon and was "killed" by Guilliman except probably not
In any case one of the alpha legion primachs got MK fatality’d
who knows what alpharius died on there
dude was trying to tbag dorn and then got fatality'd
Someone named Alpharius popped up around the maelstrom and started raiding at the head of a warband. The Assassinorium sent their most elite team of assassins after him. Their heads ended up in his personal kitchen.
Like, the grand master of assassins kitchen
"Hey, that's rude. You can have these back. Please stop."
probably most daunting experience of "i know where you live"
Me patiently waiting for the possible Angron V. Ghaz matchup
I say possible cause its a rumor
angron is sad
Angron recently got 1v1 smacked by the Lion
In the Imperial palace, no less
he lost all character after logar just fucked him over
Untrue. Dante helped lol
Diz git dun krumped Yarrick (possibly)
Might as well say the emperor helped as well then
Ghaz is upset because Yarrick is dead
^
He did give his shield
lord please bring back vulkan and lorgar at the same time
Oh he's so fucking upset cause of it and me being a Steel Legion fan I cant help but love Ghaz as well
I would do anything to have vulkan have ultra depression with Gman
Isn’t the main storyline rn about pariah nexus & hive fleet leviathan
yea
logar losing his mind over imperium now actually worships his father
There are rumors that the next "primarch" sized model will be the Sanguinor
Kind of an "avatar of Sanguinius"
I wonder what that will be paired with
Just make a legion of the damned army at this point
since the lion was paired with angron and the new farsight model
Fulgrim, probably
Me coping but it’ll be pretty dope if silent king gets a model
Since pariah nexus is main storyline rn
Imperium vs Necrons
he has one?
He does
I mean update mb
Yeah it's goofy but it's VERY Necron lol
he has a ctan capr or something?
Silent king seems like a pretty big wasted character in lore rn
His normal necrodermis is massive compared to other necrons
How is that not dope as hell? Lol
I do wish they would just go full into the necron civil war they seem to be building up
Silent King son or Imotehk daughter
Like, he came back and just hasn’t participated in any major event yet
Pariah nexus is devolving into Necrons civil war
He doesn’t even have Necrons under control
he still has the emergency code to control them
Yeah they made a huge deal out of it and then... nothing
and then uh no dice after that
A bunch of them failed and several dynasties rebel against him
That’s what’s going on in pariah nexus rn
I think he's too ashammed of what he caused to do it to be honest plus that ^
It’s Necrons vs Necrons vs Imperium
was orikan also converted at one point
trazyn gonna have a ball
That's a wild gladius match lmao
Gotta say though, the characterization of "Old Man Lion" since he came back has been great
I think Trazyns dynasty isn't even awake yet?
Oh its hilarious
I could be wrong
I dont even think he cares if it happens are not he's too busy collecting
When it wakes up Trazyn gets hyped up to show his british museum
I love how he looks like Danse
I'm simultaneously too fucking old for this shit, incredibly confused and kind of depressed
@lucid hinge common Charles Dance win
Should I?
Chaos Astartes calling him old as well
sure
Fucking cherry
stability doesnt mean anything on recon
Yeah. The recoil is nonexistent anyways
"what did you do to me"
"you are old you dunce"
dies
peak fiction
ooooo
WE LOVE IT
I tried running ExStance with the recon VII and a Columnus to take out the 40+ shooters in every room
Trazyn is part of the Nihilakh but he just doesn't care about them it seems and does his own thing
It felt... ok? Like vet stealth and VoC are so much stronger
Yes you take out gunners very easily
But you lack any kind of oh shit button
Hit and run is... ok? Headhunter is good
brunt saw fit to stock this in armory with +20% maniac
hadron slapped her seal of approval on everything else
I'm kinda salivating at this one lol
damn, native headhunter and maniac
Reminder Trazyn has a Krork
I love him
He also may or may not have Vulcan
that's why he's my banner lol
Either that or Vulcan is currently teaching underprivileged inner city kids in Necromunda how to read
Dynasty wise I like the Silent King cause of the whole story behind him but he's obviously lack luster atm
And serving them soup
Necrons are my fav xeno faction with UM and Salamanders being my fav imperium factions with scions/schola being a close second
Old lore for Vulcan, but lore nonetheless
I wish salamanders had better books
I wish they had expanded on that blurb in the original Necromunda rulebook
You can probably take a hot guess what my favorite chapter of SM's are, but Imperium wise I love the Steel Legion too much, Necrons are my favorite Xenos
Shockingly have grown to like Traitor Guard overtime as well
Raptors
Blood pact are cool
Blood Angels and Black Templar here
I recall in there lore they recruit xenos too
If I had to pick a favorite xeno faction (i don't play xenos on table top) it would have to be Orks
Moebian 6th design is peak fiction
kind of wish we had some small cutscenes to see what the 6th experienced before turning traitor
Astra Carcharodons, but yeah Raptors are easily up there
the fat sharks
Im still shocked that space sharks are getting included in space marine 2
like that's wild
Grenades
I saw it and my friend who's huge into the original SM, she keeps pestering me to pre-order it
just cause they added my favorite chapter
lmao
Like dont get me wrong im absolutely interested in it but at the same time I might wait till launch
Wait for a Christmas sale or smth
my wallet after buying space marine 2
Literally 
The only problem SM2 might have would be optimization
I love the fact that since they are implied Raven guard descendants they have a hint of South East Asian vibe to them, half the reason I love em
I know launch is gonna be shit but this is the one dev I actually trust since WWZ was great
Game looks fun from the trailers
Gameplay looks nice
Look I love them cause they utilize chain weapons and melee combat without speaking a fucking word
they also said no beta so they could work on optimization for the next 2 months (lets see how that turns out lol)
that and the chapter master is horrifying
Combat doesn’t seem as deep as DT but it’s fine for a casual game
Forget we're playing as Primaris Marines aren't we
Captain tightass
THE IMPERIAL BAKERIUM
idk if i can trust saber after wwz's not crispy zombie shooting tbh
THE GOD EMPEROR BAKED THIS ONE! 🙏
Legion Asstartes
Also you know there's a curse of AAA PC pre-orders
look at that primaris ass
i think they tried using cqc execution as a remedy for this
how are the recon lasguns now? havent tried them out yet
abd hopefulyl its better but idk
pretty good
if you're looking to roll one I hear the Mk7a is the best of them
It also has 3 game modes
Story, operations and pvp
Astartes pvp
Shout out to games where the story doesn't end after the story, got to be one of my favorite genders
If they don't give you choice of painting yourself all colors of rainbow power rangers that is every SM chapter for pvp the game is bad
Genders
😁
Scrolling through my DMs with my friend and I know they were showing of the customization which looks pretty good
example here
Wee wee legion
They seem to have a set thing for specific legions and a painter
Yea
so like deathguard and nightlords will have their own set
SM1 had pretty solid customization
Heard a meme about blood ravens that they are kleptomaniacs
For both loyalist and heretics
Im planning to do Iron Warriors for Chaos
Not a meme
Just like Dante wanting to die isn't a meme lol. It's just true
very strange affination for shiny shits
deathguard getting their great crusade/HH and post corruption armor is crazy
I can see who is the favorite
Old ass meme, constantly quoted by redditards
tbh
a certain disease ridden legion it seems
no, they are trying to keep coh franchise afloat
anyhoo
because its a game
they have questionable
looted weaponry
ones that they usually shouldnt have
I hope the customization isn't that hard to obtain
from both traitor legions and allies
guys check out our very not loyalist thousand sons chapter
At the minimum I want to change what my legion is
they say it's based around progression/challenges
whether or not it's darktide release challenges or normal stuff
what talents would be good to run with this gun
we don't know
you can make it look like other legions i think
idk if they'll add
like
yeah ikik its not perfect minmax godroll but it looks fun
I hope it's not something gay like premium currency locked shit
actual logo customization
cause if you do we all know someone's gonna draw porn on it
For Darktide or SM2? Im sorry I have no clue if we shifted discussion or not lmao
no they said there will be no premium currencies
Sm2
oh wow better than darktide
I think they said it wont be premium shit for anything unlocked on there
Let's hope they kept there word
I'll have to ask my friend she's constantly up to date with it
also i dont trust shit saber says cause they flipped on tripwire's kf2
flipped tripwire's words and started pumping out weapon dlcs
🤡
weeps
fuggen clowns
and they always put actual fucking direct upgrade weapons as DLCs
shit made me so mad
can someone give me a good shocktrooper build
Brother
this could've been it
fuck glocknshield
glocknshit
a free nailgun was waaay better at killing fp
That Nailgun
and it looked hideous cause horzine cant design shit
Slaanesh legions
my god that shit was Horrendous at just wiping FPs
brrrt
as in good
and then you have the glock
can you believe at launch it didnt even block the boss beams
MAC-10 was cool but like
like are you serious
I'd rather not piss off a scrake
and then piss my team off
for pissing the scrake off
i mean if you piss off a scrake you always have a vector
like
they couldve added a weak parry to the shield for glock
would have made FP kiting fucking breeze
and fun
vut no aiming to get DR fuck off

idk
the fuck did they give it
i did buy the funny lightsaber
Sighs
Why
but uh
its something
im actually going to cry
the first kf looks more fun than the second one
its got that jank old game vibe to it
yeah that whole shit happened after saber took tripwire and they started to manage kf2 while they worked on 3
i hate it
the weapons were usually mid also
cause no "omg p2w" argument i assume
which is why glocknshield didnt havw parry i assume
god fucking dammit
Apparently its a T4
bastion is a dumb gun
its also a shield gun like glocknshit
but the shield is always active
and have hp p sure
also the horzine neon bullshit i hate
idk if uh
vector is weight 6
or 5
but you could probably carry t5 g36c and vector
and mow down everything i fuess
🤡
clown balance
ye
fucking wild
you can technically run out of ammo i guess since only 2 guns
but like you are swat
that or Glock and Shart and G3 and thats it
Armor bypassing
EDAR shredder?
good at... Killing Rioters, EDARs, and the Bosses with armor
Abom and matriarch
sounds... mediocre, but its good i guess
glocknshit and the nailgun still the kings of killing fp groups cause how high the damage is against fp
except glock sucks and nailgun dominates
only thing i like about that neon bullshit is the hemoclobber
i hated it every second
the design
is
Oh no trust me I hate it also
like you show that 80s neonsign street guy a weapon
if its useable or fun I will use it
and then tell him to do shit
thats the result
horzine cant design shit
it works when its their unique lineup
like medpistol n shit
not bad but personally I would run dumdum over headhunter (unless the meta has changed?)
but nto for reskins
also i like the mediguns using caseless ammo that is square
gives that much bit of uniqueness
and then we get HRG reskins
god i hate saber
I would also run field improv but maybe Im too support pilled
but infernus go sicko mode
nah keep infernus
and hh helps infernus go sickomode
anyways lets talk about saber and not tripwire's baby ruined by saber
last game they made was WWZ
lmao
and longshot makes dumdum not needed no?
WWZ was
Hey KF3 eventually man
I think they nerfed infernus but it's still decent
unique
dumdum and HH. Get brittlenes per hit.
unsure if its good or bad but it looks cool
they did decreased stacks by 1
WWZ is sitll like the only game that has the few hundred zombie hordes that dont instantly make your pc into a radioactive meltdown
WWZ was decent and was supported for years afterwards for free
I have felt like that over the years of playing but hey anecdotal evidence
icthink they have remedied that a bit in sm2 and introduced CQC QTE takedowns to make the melee combat more exciting
but idk if its gonna be enough
least if anything
the feel's gonna hit
saber hit well with the horde feel
the only thing I dislike about SM2 rn is the bolters sound
its not just few tens of zombies running at you
itd actual hordes
their unique way of having mass hordes into a single entity def solved issues of it melting your pc
i like that
i dont like the pool noodle feeling
Holy shit its jackie chan
lmao that reminded me of the guy
from last airbender who got his head shaved

for some reason
kek
Honestly I feel like darktide has best bolter sounds
Gladius bolters sounded like SMGs
Same
Lmao
Played it for a bit and didn't really enjoy it
Liked total war warhammer more
TW is more interactive compared to gladius
it sounds like a mechanical pistol in your hands, darktide is crispy in some details
and i think also influenced some tabletop models with the lasgun having the wierd magazine lever and ammo display thing
i think the ammo display is a cute feature
it feels 40k
Locke sounds massive in all aspects
Big gun, big recoil, big bullet
yo guys need a refresher on curio blessings
trying to use this to replace the one that gives me 1 wound
Uh huh
here's the wound one
DMG POX HOUNDS 😭
oh my
ooh
i run 3 toughness but people also do like 1 stam or 1 health
i tried to say piston kek
Exe Stance still doesn't trigger WS
This fact pops into my head periodically and it makes me sad
Hp, toughness, gunner damage resist
ooh
That's what I run
I run 1 wound 1 health 1 stam or toughness.
I cant survive long without wound huhu
17
Can't go wrong for hp toughness and stamina
but I'm mostly a gun vet, only using melee against fodder
If you run two health curios you can have over 200 HP which allows you to take two sniper shots from full toughness/health and not go down, or take two poxburster pops from full toughness/health and not go down. Iirc there's also a good breakpoint for using toughness curios and sniper resist perks to tank an entire shot without taking any HP damage if you'd rather go two toughness curios instead. I am a Deadshot fiend so I use triple Stam curios. But if you're not a clown like me you can run one of these combos:
2 Toughness, 1 Stam
2 Toughness, 1 HP
2 HP, 1 Stam
2 HP, 1 Toughness
Good perks to have are Sniper resist, combat ability regen, sprint efficiency and Stam regen
Deadshot uses percentage
No
Asking people advices for curios is like sparking a gang war
affaik it does
I'm enraged. I just barely don't meet the 2 tap threshold for crushers and maulers on my new revolver.
If I had even 5% more damage to carapace then I'd 2 tap them without needing exe stance or something else hitting them.
This is with both superiority complex and bring it down being active.
Show the revolver
Well, you'll laugh at me because I put 25% unarmored damage on it.
18 Stam bars from triple Stam curios (+3 x 3), the +1 Stam talent node under Confirmed Kill, 2 default Stam on Vet, 4 Stam stamp Recon and +2 Stam perk on Recon is objectively more uptime on Deadshot than the default 6 Stam you would have otherwise ignoring all that and using only the default Stam you get from base class + Recon bonus Stam
But that's because it came with 20% and I just barely couldn't 1tap a dreg gunner.
You can see this in Psykanium tests too
Is 18 Stam excessive? Yes
Why not +10% elite dmg
But it means very good uptime on Deadshot with a Recon
Because then I wouldn't 1tap a dreg gunner.
oh nvmd its not percentage based anymore didnt see
I pair it with Target Down from Focus Target to get additional Stam regen on kill
You would
cause afaik it used to be terrible with percentage
Gunners are elite
Genuinely, if the other perk (crit damage) were to be 10% instead of 8% I think I would be good.
It is still definitely not recommended to ever do 18 Stam bars LOL
It's just a very extreme example
Last I checked 10% is lower than 25%.
I'd be missing 15% damage vs dreg gunners.
And you said you left it with 12 hp
Though I'd pass the bp for both maulers and crushers.
So elite dmg is just objectively better
Yes, it was left with 12hp at 20% unarmored damage.
Uh huh
Show the revolver stats
With 25% unarmored I pass the bp to 1tap a dreg gunner without waiting on a crit.
But I don't pass the bp of 2tapping crushers and maulers in 2 crits.
Yknow... thinking about it now... I just bricked this gun in the worst way possible.
Can you do it without unarmored but + elite
If I changed crit damage to elite damage I'd have passed both bps...
Cause elite gives crusher 2tap
why unarmored on a pistol
.
welp we live and we learn
Either you can't read or you're being an ass on purpose.
what did i missread
Anywho, I guess I'll live with my mistake. Could've been literally a perfect gun but alas I am stupid.
Yeah, I know, but I can't go back in time to change crit damage to elite damage instead of changing the 20% to 25%.
thats fair
time to craft another one
Nah. I'll just poke the crushers/maulers with my power sword.
In practice, though, that bp doesn't really matter all too much.
I'm not exactly the kind of player to sit there and wait on surgical to get 2 guaranteed crits.
Does Long Shot or Killzone work in Auric Damnation missions?
On paper? Yes. In practice? Probably not.
i hear close dmg bugged by some so idk about killzone ?
I feel like I am mostly surrounded and the enemies are near.
So I am very unsure if I am utilizing them
its what i heard only not seen
For a deadeye shock trooper build what curios should i choose
1 toughness 1 hp 1 stam or 2 toughness 1 stam.
God damn
Yeah I shot myself in the foot with a bolter by fucking htat gun up.
but yknow
I could've had the most perfect zarona and I blew it.
You could always do this
Wait wrong fucking vid
This one
darktide
I also 1tap both types of shotgunners as well.
just add longshot to your build
So fucking sad that I ruined it.
You're telling me that my MG12 lasgun can one tap dreg gunners and your zarona can't
Yeah I'll totally get value out of trying to pass crusher and mauler bps with longshot when they still will take 2 shots to kill and I need to get headshot crits.
Yeah, it couldn't at 20% unarmored.
weeps
Lasgun MG12 is officially better than Zarona revolver
what zealot gun can use ghost and onetap specials smh
Ladies and gentlemen
If you squeeze it enough then lasguns
If not then bolter, zarona
Those don't have ghost
But onetap specials at least
Mine doesn't even 1tap, how does yours?
ye which is problem kek
You have unarmored on yours?
On mg12?
Lmao no
It's flakiac
Why do u need that
of removing -15% damage to the head probably did help a bit
I do not 1tap dreg gunners with this.
Here's the problem with your mg12
shootout
It's doesn't have opening salvo
Ah, I see.
U can still avoid getting shot with sprint/slide
Well I still kill them in 2 shots.
Thanks to number cat btw
I realised that mg12 shoots slow enough to proc opening salvo consistently
I kill crushers in 11-13 shots depending on crits.
i love the lasgun
So... not that bad of a tradeoff.
Lasguns can't do shit to carapace tho
that is the tradeoff for being good at everything else
still wanna do kill in 1shot and avoding shootout if possible tbh
ACTUALLY!
it also doesn't have much stamina
I could use focus target!
Shit at flak
TRUE
okay but you shouldnt be shooting flak armor
if i run 2 HP curios and a stam curio for a deadeye shock trooper build,
with each curio having
Gunner DR, Stam regen and combat ability regen
while also using VoC with duty and honor, would that be good?
at least not body shots
I'm not even using a keystone, but I could swap some points out and squeeze that extra damage from focus target.
LET'S GO PLASMA GUNNING
Focus Target mark sound Focus Target mark sound Focus Target mark sound Focus Target mark sound Focus Target mark sound Focus Target mark sound Focus Target mark sound Focus Target mark sound Focus Target mark sound
I PASS IT.
i am using the weakest lasgun and at around 6 stacks of marksmans focus the lasgun one shots both types of bruisers
L for using marksman's focus, though.
whats wrong with it
I wasn't even using a keystone.
Okay so you're telling me I shouldn't shoot at scab gunners and scab ragers got it
i said dont do body shots goober
Genuinely I don't think any of vets keystones are any more valuable than the normal perks.
i one shot scab gunners with the lasgun
I HAVE POWER OF STRAW MAN ON MY SIDE
not sure what you mean by that
Like weapon specialist is neat and all but I feel like I have better survivability and damage just by using other perks that are above keystones.
weapon specialist seems fun with shotguns with the reload perk but i otherwise dont really like using it
Strawman argument
Pull some words out of someone's argument and make it look bad
Though the quickdraw into instant crit does seem appealing.
this isnt strawman
In example someone said they like ketchup
Strawman argument is saying they hate mustard
i said you shouldn't be aiming for the body with the lasgun
You said not to shoot flak and now I ridicule it for comedic effect
even if it is weak to flak which im sure it is because it takes up to three shots to headshot a dreg bruiser without any bonuses
Next time I am not gonna shoot scabs as a challenge fr tho
generally the lasgun is meant to be a precision weapon
but i also use the catachan sword as my backup which is also weak against flak
its just that it swings through 40 people at a time
Oh hell yeah I don't even need to wait on a second crit by using focus target.
Crushers and maulers must be really fun to deal with
yeah its called i run away lol
I can just have the first one go off and instantly followup headshot to drop them.
actually the parry attack seems to do something like
400-700 damage
i can't really see the numbers
Yeah, the parry attack does an incredible amount of finesse damage.
but i have to parry them several times
If you have desperado you can drop crushers very quickly.
Bring krak 🤷♂️ it's made for loadouts like these
i usually go full crowd control with my veteran and i feel very vindicated after this last patch that made shooters terrorsa
tbh its less worse on plasma, like some idiot who tries to use lasgun mg4 and binds the marking button to lclick
LessAnnoyingPing mod is goated lol
do I melkoin this
I've never used axes much before but I thought it looked kinda nice
and i can always count on my teammates being around to help
No.
Just take it and burn it for blessings
yeah, very common to see people doing single target stuff, rare that you have a squad too invested in crowd control
limbsplitter is silly
Depends if you have 1k or 100k Mel bucks
Limbsplitter is terrible.
You need all of them for the crafting update anyway
1/4 and shred is only lvl3
It's not unreliable in its damage as it does deliver great damage.
the tac axe is a flurry weapon
But
dont
doesnt limbsplitter work on helbores?
This worth picking up for the IV perk? only 2.6k
The uptime you have with it is awful.
not anymore
fuck
having to wait 6 seconds to get bonus power on a single swing is really odd for a weapon that swings something like twice a second
The weapon itself is iffy, too.
I have never seen someone use an axe that wasn't a rashad.
when will they add melee buff vlessings for hellbore
like something stupid, like idk
uncanny strike

They'd probably give it unique blessings for actually bayonet charging.
its just that i've kind of handicapped myself because i used the catachan too much and i use other weapons and hurt myself automatically trying to parry
Can you imagine damage resistance vs ranged attacks while bayonet charging?
inspiring barrage is a meme pick that isn't even funny, so i'd only buy it if you have a surplus of melkbux
its not bad if you want a toughness totem
i have it locked on my bolter
but flamer exists
It is bad.
i dont really want it but its the only decent bolter i have
its a bit helpful in a situation where you are returning fire but not very
It's not even worth using as a toughness battery blessing because 1) there are significantly better options and 2) your ammo economy drops through the floor.
i use mine as run to cover and spray on air to regen my toughness
zealot kinda doesnt habe much options
you can try to use gloryhunter zarona i guess
ammo economy is a funny word
i dont tend to run out of bullets though
funny phrase
I like lasguns in this game
the taac axe really thrives on landing lots of crits its like a knife that does less damage which is a little stupid
But I can't stand using hellbores
the helbores are fun but the lack of stamina really hurts
if you are zealot due to you actually using a competant ranged options called a throwing knife in this game you kinda can get lot of autopistol ammk
and autopistol ia decent at dispatching specials
cause absurd maniac damage
Not because of that
i like the autopistols look but i cant seem to figure it out
you absolutely dont need a damage up for that to be viable
and besides if you shoot at mutie pinning fire doesnt work
Their regular shots are as strong as MG4
On charging shots
I have to ask: what is the worm referring to here?
and one shot bodyshot bruisers and a lot of other things
I am talking regular ones
Yeah I don't like uncharged shots at all
They hit as hard as mg4
And that one can be considered as assault rifle considering it's fire rate
spam click is fine against shooters
It’s usually either Rashad or Antax
i will use an atrox mk2 tactical axe this game
with headtaker and decimator
i will see how it gooes
because they're fun but crit heavy
you double your damage output with crits
Tac axes are weird (?)
They don’t do remotely the same amount of dmg as combat axes, it’s kinda sad
they're like knives with more stamina and better defense against stagger resistance
it looks like a worm wiggling around
They have same stamina amount as knife
But single target dmg is a lot worse than knife
got it cheers
when i had a knife it had like 2 or 3 bars of stamina
too much running back and forth basically
Both tac axe and knife are +1 stamina
the atrox does have a bit of horde clear in the heavies
the blue tac axe is just all out light attack spam
They’re all called Atrox
Atrox mk2, mk4 and mk7
Derg spotted :3
Mk4 default is blue I think
that is my dragon but i am not the dragon
i enjoy tac axes for the mobility they offer when i dont feel like running knife
and i think theyre easier to handle hordes with than knife, if youre not proficient at the latter
Tac Axes are fucking hilarious when they're built to horde clear
spam click simulator
most meth head build I've ever made one time
This is true but they kill elites so much slower than combat axes & knife
wuts best tac axe?
yeah but you can usually be mindless about it
until your dodge gets eaten obv but yknow
YEAH
This is exactly why I have a Tac Axe
Love just pushing all the melee juice into it and craving through a horde
what's the difference between the Recon lasgun Marks?
How's this for my Shock Maul? Yes ik mobility is just below 50 but will it matter that much?
Recon Mk II is the most basic but also the most ammo efficient of the Recons and has the highest single target DPS and best ammo economy
Recon Mk VIIa trades a slight amount of single target DPS and some ammo economy for cleave on shots, more damage per shot and a slower fire rate than the Recon Mk II
Recon Mk VId is the light machine gun variant with double the magazine size and the fastest rate of fire of the weapons. It has a slower reload and slower weapon swap speed
base 4->3 dodge is pretty annoying to deal with yes
perks seem fineish
idk about blessings but skullcrusher is decent
DPS/TTK (single target)
Mk II > Mk VIIa > MK VId
DPS/TTK (multi target)
Mk VIIa > Mk VId > Mk II
DPS/TTK (carapace)
Mk VId > Mk VIIa > Mk II
Ammo Efficiency
Mk II > Mk VIIa > Mk VId
Recon Mk VIIa: 50-54 shots (2 ammo cost per shot, 100-108 ammo per clip)
Recon Mk II: 100-108 shots (1 ammo cost per shot, 100-108 ammo per clip)
Recon Mk VId: 160-180 shots (1 ammo cost per shot, 160-180 ammo per clip)
so
they somehow made
the mid gun
the best
awesome
thats actually nuts
graia IAG in chat anyone
They are all good now but it is important to note that the Recon Mk VId is the most ammo thirsty variant now and it also surprisingly has the lowest DPS of the three variants. It excels at suppression and when used with Onslaught has the best DPS vs Crushers
They all do very similar damage and no Recon does significantly more DPS than any of the others to make it the best Recon
The all have pros and cons so you should pick which one you enjoy playing with the most
vId because hehe firerate go brr
There is no Recon that does everything better than any other variant
THAT SAID: a lot of people favour the Recon Mk VIIa because the cleave is extra useful for firing down hordes and mixed hordes. It can be very handy for shooting through a crowd of poxwalkers to hit the Rager in the middle of the horde, or to clean a line through a group of groaners body blocking a Sniper
As long as I can full auto fire a laser into a horde im happy
Next patch shredder becomes good?
The Recon Mk VIIa and Recon Mk VId do that best but the Recon Mk VIIa will eat less ammo for it
Maybe?
what modifier should I go for other than damage and ammo?
mobility >=51%
dump collat and stability
with the cleave it feels similar to agrapina brauto
well maybe not the stagger bht yknow
im sad that zealot doesnt get to play with it
How does this look for a recon I already had?
not bad
good base everything's good besides groaner damage, perfectly usable
Can you guys give some advice or something for on overwatch, I’ve been trying to get it for days but between my bad internet and a skill issue, I’m having a good bit of trouble
overwhat
Exactly what Backup said! Damage and Ammo stat as close to 80% as you can get, Mobility 51%+, Stability and Collateral can be ignored. Collateral has some niche value when it is higher because it lets you get two staggers off on a Flak Rager while shooting it to death, letting you safely stunlock it. But that's optional tbh because the DPS is solid and you'll probably kill them too fast for that to matter most times
The penance to take no melee damage
That looks good other than groaners. Headhunter is the most important blessing. Infernus is a solid side grade to Dum Dum and performs comparable DPS (less damage than Dum Dum at 0m to 15m, similar DPS 15m to 25m, better DPS 25m+). Flak is the most important perk imo. That should perform well!
I have just the thing one second
the goal is to not take melee damage to your health
this is important since taking a melee hit at 100% toughness means it won't bleed through, so your penance is preserved
i'll just let sneaky paste the essay with rest of the advice
of the shock mauls, they only differ in terms of moveset, right? which of the two do you guys prefer?
Grab Infiltrate, Low Profile and Overwatch talent nodes. Infiltrate stealth lasts 10 seconds. Low Profile also lasts 10 seconds and gives you -90% threat reduction when stealth breaks meaning if you are near a team mate you can literally shoot your gun and watch enemies walk past you to beat up the poor Psyker you're standing next to instead. Overwatch talent node gives you +1 charge at the cost of +33% CD. Infiltrate normally has 45 sec on CD. With Overwatch it has 2 charges and recharges every 1 min. Put Combat Ability Regen perks on all your curios to lower this CD. Use this with Tactical Awareness talent for -6 sec on ability CD per special kill. Get an ability CD reduction stim ASAP. Chain your Infiltrate and Low Profile during spicy fights to keep aggro off you and stay near the team. If things get extra hot pop CD stim and prepare to use Infiltrate more to keep hidden from the fight. You CAN still fight because during Low Profile you have the threat reduction. If an enemy hits you once? Pop Infiltrate immediately. Restores toughness to full and On Overwatch Penance only counts HP DAMAGE as failing it
i did it with voc too
or have a vet with voc
and you go infil
either way, just either havw gold toughness or dont let anything near you
they can just do it on low int malice
