gonna use close damage for now then

rigid pilot
#

If there are at least 2 other vets running krak, 6 kraks will delete any boss

coral willow
#

save for itemization kek

shadow aurora
#

Oops meant other way around. Does the close dmg apply to aoe is what i was asking

coral willow
somber axle
coral willow
#

havent tested this shit, winging it

shadow aurora
#

Then its up for debate

somber axle
#

I'll DM you my Fatshark code or whatever but I'm also not sure how I'm doing the voice chat thing LOL

coral willow
#

twinblast

#

triggering for every krak you throw

#

and 6 kraks on a boss

#

is beyond funny

#

tbh i should change my build to take the uh really good resup talent

junior needle
tall torrent
coral willow
#

i think that is really good

tall torrent
#

field improv?

#

it's good but not iron will level of good

coral willow
#

well unless the room is filled with psykers, zealot with knives, and ogryns with rocks

#

been getting used to not spamming nades btw

#

and taking iron will instead

tall torrent
#

just take iron will all the time

#

not that difficult

coral willow
#

but my nade!!!

livid fractal
#

can i get a build for Kantrael Las centric veteran

tall torrent
#

free 50% TDR is way better

livid fractal
#

specifically Kant Ia

spring spindle
coral willow
#

mw when spamming nades on every elite wave i see

#

idk nade is fun

#

thats all i can say really

tall torrent
coral willow
#

they should add a ogryn weapon that is just a bag of unused nades and it does the old grenade box where it only explodes in 20% chances

coral willow
#

anyway

shadow aurora
coral willow
#

i am taking iron will more over demo team nowdays

tall torrent
#

power sword works without it anyways

#

ur not playing rashad

coral willow
#

the melee build im running does run iw over dt btw

#

switched thanks to you

#

but i dont in my other builds KEKW_ogryn

livid fractal
#

how important is the 10% Rending skill on Kant Ia

tall torrent
#

it shouldn't be "this specific build I'm running IW"

#

ur just trolling for the purpose of being different

coral willow
#

ik, im just chucking nades

tall torrent
coral willow
#

wee

tall torrent
#

1a is kind of a point hungry gun

#

needs suppression immunity, shock trooper + rending

livid fractal
#

im trying to figure out how i can shove another point in for determined

torn gorge
#

you can play ES instead and avoid the suppression node

coral willow
#

anyway whats the best weapon for zealot to deal with shooters
been thinking of hitnrun dumdum on graia

faint beacon
#

gonna try Chainsword seeing I haven't touched those in ages

torn gorge
#

executioner stance

coral willow
#

still the classic huh

tall torrent
#

I mean why wouldn't u

coral willow
#

i have a laspistol but the locked blessing is infernus

livid fractal
#

I am running ES

coral willow
#

so i have a dumdum infernus mk2 laspistol and uh i dont wanna run the mk10

livid fractal
#

If you have any suggestions by all means go ahead
I just want something that makes Kant Ia slap

tall torrent
#

1 headshot all shooters, minimal accuracy loss under suppression, fast ADS move speed, instant sprint to fire

#

zero recoil & excellent hipfire

coral willow
#

i suck at aiming it lol

#

i use it on my taxe build

#

kinda never use it i think somehow
its great sidearm to carry

tall torrent
livid fractal
coral willow
#

knife

#

almost always knife unless im doing hammers

tall torrent
#

how

austere mica
livid fractal
#

Shoot

coral willow
#

idk i do better eith knives

livid fractal
#

also what melee runs well with Kant las

austere mica
#

You running this just for lasgun?

livid fractal
#

yeah

frank ether
#

anything with carapace pen

livid fractal
#

plan is get situated, pop F, roast every shooter in sight

austere mica
#

So a chainsword, powersword, shovel

tall torrent
frank ether
#

psword, knife, maul, combat axe etc ettc

torn gorge
#

kn0ife as well

austere mica
#

all work great

tall torrent
#

that's genuinely insane to me

torn gorge
#

if you plan on running frag nade

livid fractal
#

hear me out

torn gorge
#

chaxe has no mobility

livid fractal
#

damn

coral willow
torn gorge
#

if you main 1a and run ES you have to be mobile

tall torrent
livid fractal
#

might go for PSword when i can get my hands on it, will just run my offbrand chsword in the maintime

torn gorge
#

and have a source of space creation

frank ether
tall torrent
#

the goal for u is to get a couple headshots off and just push melee

#

if ur zealot

livid fractal
#

i have pcycler 4 but nothing else good lmao

coral willow
tall torrent
#

u don't need to head click every single shooter in the room

frank ether
#

oops sorry didnt meant to quote

coral willow
#

ill post mine later

#

aince infernus is locked i think i just use it for DPS ranged

livid fractal
#

to the build

austere mica
#

Hold on

last parcel
#

who is on and why am i holding them

tall torrent
#

if u run blazing piety it's a ton more dmg for laspistol

coral willow
#

ye

#

do i need dumdum

#

cuz currently its dumdum + infernus

#

with infernus locked

frank ether
#

I tried zarona today after like ages of not touching it

austere mica
frank ether
#

damn boltpistol is not even close lmao

austere mica
#

4 extra points

#

do whatever

torn gorge
#

if you dont want keystones you can do

tall torrent
austere mica
#

also Born Leader isn't necessary

tall torrent
#

but if ur going for the purpose of making shooters easier to deal with

torn gorge
#

beside opening salvo

tall torrent
#

ghost is more valuable

torn gorge
#

which i put there by mistake

austere mica
#

as for the gun there is a guide in the pins here

#

check that out

coral willow
#

ill just use dumdum and better luck next time then

austere mica
#

most comprehensive class guide

coral willow
#

is there a point to uh

#

mk10 heavylaspistol

#

too slow for my liking

tall torrent
#

it's not as good as mk2

torn gorge
#

idr how the breakpoints change with MF

#

for the mg1a

#

but thats a fun minigame to play

tall torrent
#

or better yet

frank ether
#

its not that hard with spam guns

tall torrent
#

columnus with hit&run

#

plus dance of death

#

zero recoil infinite uptime

coral willow
#

that sounds fun yea

#

problem is all my columnus is like

#

dumdum and something else

#

deathspitter fire frenzy and uh speedload

tall torrent
#

graia 8 works too

coral willow
#

speedload one has the perfect perk

#

ill go for graia

frank ether
#

you dont have to have a columnus

coral willow
#

mostly doing every weapon has a build challenge

frank ether
#

agripina is pretty busted in my disgusting opinion

coral willow
#

which is why i dont wanna use revolvers to end of time

#

sgrapina is p busted

torn gorge
#

as long as you pace your shots

coral willow
#

i like using dumdum/deathspitter on it

torn gorge
#

and you know how to control recoil

tall torrent
#

agripinaa IAG is the worst IAG imo just because practically it's the worst at killing gunners at range

thorn lark
coral willow
#

it does great damage for me regardless so i use it on my rashad

frank ether
#

You can juice it to one shot them

tall torrent
torn gorge
#

play MF on AIAG

frank ether
#

I havent done extensive range testing on zealot

#

on vet it does fine

tall torrent
#

extreme dmg juice

coral willow
#

for zealot its just a hardhitting IAG that can pen shit isnt it

tall torrent
#

without exe stance AIAG doesn't feel nearly as good as the other two

#

stagger gunner on headshot + suppression, highest recoil per shot, low mag size

#

stagger gunner on headshot genuinely kills it for me

frank ether
#

it has pretty easy recoil if you burst

#

I build it to one shot them anyway

coral willow
#

burst is for chumps

#

🤡

#

i have a near perfect one

tall torrent
#

at that point

#

v3 / v7

coral willow
#

i dont like v3

#

AIAG feels right to me

torn gorge
#

V3 HH? its v easy to control

coral willow
#

v3 does great but i dont think its a full auto gun

frank ether
#

It doesn't lock you to burst

coral willow
#

i have some issues with it

torn gorge
#

but AIAG has silly finesse multipliers

frank ether
#

v3/v7 want you to juice the gun just as much tbh

coral willow
#

v7 is fun on zealot

#

just cant seem to oneshot the lower elites though

tall torrent
coral willow
#

so idk what to do with it

frank ether
#

people run those guns with either deadshot mf or exe mf or some other giga juiced combination

bitter turtle
#

v3 doesnt really need juice to be functional

#

weapon spec + DA does a lot

tall torrent
#

v3 is literally a backpocket armor buster

bitter turtle
#

swap into it and 1shot most elites with a single burst

rigid pilot
#

Weapon spec v3 loregryn

thorn lark
#

v3?

coral willow
#

i cant aim for headhunter half the time but its 2nd in row for carapace dispatch i guess

tall torrent
bitter turtle
thorn lark
#

vraks 3?

last parcel
thorn lark
#

👌

rigid pilot
#

How does it do so much crit carapace damage

bitter turtle
#

you literally gain 1k dps on a mauler for example with a fully stacked weapon spec, even 1 stack is +500 dps

bitter turtle
coral willow
#

v3 has great flak damage right

rigid pilot
#

DAddy 😩

coral willow
#

still not sure about crushers

bitter turtle
#

even ignoring dps race situations, the guaranteed crit is extremely good

rigid pilot
#

People tell me v3 melts crushers

#

With crits

bitter turtle
coral willow
#

idk takes half a mag for me

frank ether
#

It does if you build giga rending

coral willow
#

aint putting it on "i go with this on crusher packs"

#

better than any other option though

#

v3 does do great damage

tall torrent
#

just rending strikes alone

rigid pilot
#

What's the blessings for a weapon spec V3, DA + headhunter?

rigid pilot
#

I forgot if HH gets headhunter, ok yea

tall torrent
coral willow
#

when are we getting burstfire lasgun

rigid pilot
bitter turtle
#

difference between no wep spec and wep spec

coral willow
#

kek

bitter turtle
#

v3 is one of the few guns that benefit both from the guaranteed crit and fire rate buff

tall torrent
bitter turtle
#

i dont have rending strikes in that vid btw

thorn lark
#

the bigger they are

tall torrent
rigid pilot
#

Oh so take tbta?

tall torrent
#

I still think rend is good for headhunter just to make up for some maniac dmg

bitter turtle
#

rend is good

tall torrent
#

yea both ogryn dmg and rend

bitter turtle
#

i just dont have pts for it on my tree

tall torrent
#

that's abt it for vraks 3 tbh

rigid pilot
#

Yea those are expensive

bitter turtle
#

if i didnt run ||infiltrate|| i would though

#

but yea idk

#

i think wep spec v3 is the best way to play it

#

feels so good to proc wep spec with any number of stacks on it

#

normally you have to be very accurate to kill flamers quickly and control the burst well

#

guaranteed crit makes it easy

thorn lark
#

do you need hh if you already have ws for the crit?

bitter turtle
#

yes

#

i mean its not like you literally only shoot 1 salvo

#

its nice if you need to keep shooting

#

also synergy with the fire rate buff

#

you can stack up HH real fast

tall torrent
#

u could run smth like this for vraks 3 with WS

bitter turtle
#

yeah that is probably best

#

im a memer that runs infiltrate is all

#

so i cant afford rending and ogryn KEKW_ogryn

tall torrent
#

only problem with v3 is that it's usually in ammo negative

#

cuz u take 2 bursts to kill specials most of the time

bitter turtle
#

that's why weapon spec is also good

tall torrent
#

unless ur a flick god

bitter turtle
#

1 burst to kill flamer/gunner without much skill required, and your melee is strong so you naturally use it a lot and save ammo

tall torrent
#

if u just want to juice dmg tho

#

MF vraks 3 is disgusting

#

but I don't enjoy that

#

would much rather MF laspistol

bitter turtle
#

yeah MF is gonna juice more dmg ofc

tall torrent
thorn lark
tall torrent
thorn lark
#

or you could go chaxe 4 and keep smokes

bitter turtle
#

dont really need kraks on a WS build almost ever

#

your melee should be hella strong and kill cara easily

#

unless you just wanna stunlock bosses

tall torrent
#

U only miss out on elite dmg if u go Krak

thorn lark
#

and ammo

tall torrent
#

Ammo is not the most valuable

#

It’s mainly elite dmg

#

Cuz on WS build u don’t shoot that much anyway

#

U shoot only to keep melee specialist going or to kill specials

bitter turtle
#

ideally you're just shooting with the WS buffs up

#

of course the gun is super precise so if you need to you can still just get into a shooting match with a gunner pack if its needed

thorn lark
#

you could go that way with a chaxe as well

#

i wonder, does the rev stack onslaught?

faint beacon
#

Okay I ask

#

what is the best Combo for a simple Horde Clear Mk XII Orestes Chain Axe

tall torrent
faint beacon
#

felt like trying this goofy thing out

#

as in

#

not melee combo but

#

Blessing Perk etc

tall torrent
#

Carapace

faint beacon
#

Flak?...........

#

Or maniac

rigid pilot
#

Is the mk12 the new one or the old one

faint beacon
#

New one

tall torrent
#

Cuz I think chainaxe just isn’t worth running if ur not gonna make it at least capable of 1 tapping crushers with conditional buffs

faint beacon
#

actual reliable Horde Clear lights

#

MK VI is the old one

rigid pilot
#

I take thrust headtaker

#

One shot crushers

tall torrent
rigid pilot
#

Very pog

tall torrent
#

If u have slaughter + headtaker stacks up

#

Or if u have thrust

coral willow
#

rev heavy after i assume

#

hm

rigid pilot
#

I like thrust on 12 because the regular heavy can oneshot ragers and gunners

faint beacon
rigid pilot
#

No rev required

faint beacon
#

trust me I love the thing but im getting burnt out HARD on it

coral willow
#

thrudt on 12 is fun to murder muties

rigid pilot
#

Saul gud

faint beacon
#

it is fun... but I am not feeling it either........

#

Besides I use that for my enforcer loadout lmao

coral willow
#

i like 7

faint beacon
tall torrent
coral willow
#

does graat single and horde

faint beacon
#

that thing is pretty fucking funny

thorn lark
#

chaxe 4 is really good

thorn lark
coral willow
#

been enjoying chaxe 4 again

thorn lark
#

or learn the moveset

#

is it a rasha, no

coral willow
#

idk mk7 suffered from chronic disjoint on light 2

thorn lark
#

it does not have to be

tall torrent
coral willow
#

eh

thorn lark
#

except that slight problem that went unfixed for months

coral willow
#

they do decent damage already, if you want them to be comparable to knife i'd just give more crit chance

thorn lark
tall torrent
torn gorge
#

taxe family has kind of a boring moveset tbh

thorn lark
#

they benefitted a lot from old bm, but you can still reach the bps with talents and crits

tall torrent
#

It’s stuck in this weird place where both of its competitors kill carapace really well, and then knife has mobility going for it whereas Rashad has horde clear going for it

coral willow
tall torrent
coral willow
#

i still think its p unique

faint beacon
#

So uh I understand you're telling me not to run the Mk XII

tall torrent
#

Rashad can spam m1

faint beacon
#

Brunt is selling this

#

lmao

coral willow
tall torrent
coral willow
#

crusher?

#

kek

thorn lark
#

rashad is too slow without any attack speed buff

faint beacon
coral willow
#

damn

#

that looks good

thorn lark
tall torrent
#

You have like

#

Half the dps of Rashad

coral willow
#

without crits its bad yea

faint beacon
#

I just upgrade Headtaker and leave it as is?

coral willow
#

idk i think it just needs more base critchanxe

faint beacon
#

like the hell am I supposed to do with this god tier roll

tall torrent
tall torrent
coral willow
thorn lark
faint beacon
#

Easiest shit ever lmao

tall torrent
#

Tac axe has like 900~1200dps fluctuating depending on crit RNG

#

The only thing u can rly say tac axe does definitively better than Rashad is solo rager because u can stunlock & kill faster

#

Except Rashad still wins vs multiple ragers

thorn lark
#

tbh, if i have to deal with a crusher and i have a taxe...i would use nade and gun and finish it with melee

tall torrent
#

Just because tac axes have like no cleave

#

3 cleave is not enough

#

Rashad gets to stagger 3 dreg ragers with PA

#

Tac axe gets to stagger 1

thorn lark
#

well that's playing the taxe like a rashad

#

it has shortcomings, so you play differently

tall torrent
#

If the “play differently” is to rely on ranged weapon for killing elites groups then it’s just flat out not good enough

thorn lark
#

which bother me not because that's how i was dealing with ragers, unless i use a claw

tall torrent
#

Because both of its competitors just out dmg it and it’s not good enough as a middle ground

azure zephyr
#

Hacker shotgun is peak, probably not best on veteran all things considered but still fun.

tall torrent
#

It’s not good enough at killing carapace to be considered as a real anti-carapace weapon, and it’s not good enough at killing bruisers to be considered a true horde wipe tool

faint beacon
#

its stupid on Veteran with an Infil Build

tall torrent
#

Chainsword because it’s ~900dps and locks u into chain rev
DC because it just doesn’t do good vs armor and parry vs crusher is too risky to be worth it in big hordes

thorn lark
tall torrent
azure zephyr
thorn lark
#

taxe has an identity crisis

#

neither a knife or a rashad

#

but i like the blend of crits and mobility

tall torrent
old quail
#

taxe2/7 aren't bad but the fact the strikedown heavies have the same damage profile as the sweep is just sad

#

like fundamentally u can't have a weapon that works and leave shit like that in the game

thorn lark
#

tbh, mose of the best zealots i know use a taxe and do insane dmg with them

azure zephyr
#

Plus as vet I half a funny habit of getting stuck in with the team or just surrounded by foes so shotgun works wonders, I wish I could get myself manstopper...

thorn lark
#

because they like the speed and mobility

old quail
#

it was the obscurus problem. it wasn't a middle ground, it was an illisi with a single deimos light stab

#

and a worse activation

azure zephyr
#

Get to show the obnoxious amounts of ragers what I think of their sorry asses

old quail
#

it still has some pretty nasty problems but giving it a proper strikedown profile on the h1 immediately elevates it into at least not dogshit

azure zephyr
#

"Hey rager! Fuck you and your whole squad!"

thorn lark
tall torrent
old quail
#

it's very annoying and i won't use the weapon because i don't want to put up with it

tall torrent
#

I think tac axes’ light spam dmg vs flak & maniac is fine

thorn lark
#

you mean chaining heavies and lights?

tall torrent
#

Can be a bit higher but then it might scale too hard with crits idk

old quail
#

yeah

thorn lark
#

ah yeah so i don't use that

old quail
#

the h2 chains wrong and the h1 light followup is almost impossible to hit a head with

thorn lark
#

i spam heavies

old quail
tall torrent
#

I also think tac axes need higher cleave on PA/heavy sweep tbh

old quail
#

with a crit build you can get up to like 900 dps on carapace generally and thats its worst adm

#

which isnt terrible

tall torrent
#

Like, it’s really good in 1v1 rager
But it’s really not nearly as good in 1v2 rager

old quail
#

the 4 has a twofold problem

#

where because the strikedown heavies are just sweeps with a worse anim

#

the cleave lights are also just worse

#

which is tragic

tall torrent
#

Just make mk4’s heavy atks do turbo single target or smth

amber cliff
#

deadly accurate would be best on a bolt pistole ye?

tall torrent
#

And better cleave in general

old quail
#

the taxes should also have more interesting uses for the weapon special

tall torrent
#

I don’t understand how knife can have 6.5 cleave attacks but tac axes cannot

tall torrent
coral willow
#

well

#

knife is a form of a sword

tall torrent
#

Special chain into a unique single target atk

thorn lark
coral willow
#

and tacaxe is still a axe

tall torrent
coral willow
#

@tall torrent here me pistool

old quail
coral willow
#

also idk what to go for

old quail
#

cuz the community playtest is a big part of why the weapons turn out not terrible (unless ur talking about boltpistol handling lmao)

tall torrent
#

They do still tweak older weapons to make them feel better, it’ll just take time

#

I like most of the older weapon tweaks they did

thorn lark
tall torrent
coral willow
#

@tall torrent is this one better btw

tall torrent
#

I think ur 375 one is better

#

Tbh

coral willow
#

giving up getting better ones

#

wanna get slaughterer 4 headtaker 4

#

but its hard af

tall torrent
#

Yea

#

Crusher glowup is huge

thorn lark
#

crab had influence apparently

tall torrent
#

Went from worst zealot melee to top 3 imo

#

They nerfed single target atk speed on it this patch

#

But it’s still pretty good

thorn lark
#

we did og hisg runs with a crusher and kant zealot

#

very very nice

tall torrent
#

I haven’t checked the power maul rework

#

Mainly cuz the new pickaxes are just more interesting to me

thorn lark
thorn lark
tall torrent
amber cliff
#

Push attack crusher is all i know

#

damn dude you are really good at tacking on more than one guy at once

pseudo spade
#

does onslaught apply on range attacks? vid lasgun?

amber cliff
#

i can normally only managed 2

#

whats the maximmum amount of guys you can take

thorn lark
tall torrent
thorn lark
amber cliff
#

oh

#

you guys meant in a FIGHT??

thorn lark
#

yeah

#

that was og ragers

#

not nu nu ragers

tall torrent
thorn lark
#

especially on a weapon where your most useful combo is PA + H1

sinful swallow
thorn lark
#

yeah, in a mixed horde it's not really the same

amber cliff
sinful swallow
#

I had 13 spawn in the hallway before the elevator to the final event in metal fab

tall torrent
#

save for crafting update

sinful swallow
coral willow
#

extracting thrust brb

#

jk imma keep

sinful swallow
#

Someone once described it as think of the enemies as an amoeba, don't let it swallow you

coral willow
junior needle
sinful swallow
#

Perfect strike isn't the same as brutal right

junior needle
#

Very different

sinful swallow
#

Way worse right

junior needle
#

Perfect is a lot more cleave

#

but doesn't let you bypass target cap on damage

#

And also doesn't give you multi first target damage

uncut pebble
#

What would be like... the best lasgun for counter shooting?

rigid pilot
junior needle
#

Presuambly intended

#

It's meant to be more like sunder

rigid pilot
uncut pebble
#

I'm using the mk12 but I feel like I don't shoot fast enough to counter giant groups of shooters, but I also feel like if I switch out to a different model then I'm not going to be hitting the bps I need for gunner 1shots.

junior needle
#

Ilas, recons, hb2, laspees, all work fine

rigid pilot
#

Do you have ghost blessing

junior needle
#

1a is better for that

rigid pilot
#

Ghost blessing let's you stand and shoot

junior needle
#

And everything basically

#

Also yes

#

Ghost is strongly recommended

uncut pebble
#

I mean, I don't really need the ghost blessing considering I'm using this for a marksman's focus build.

rigid pilot
#

Just stare down 3 reapers

uncut pebble
#

Exhilarating takedown + that one keystone feature just lets me eat ranged damage for breakfast.

rigid pilot
#

If you're using a MF build you don't need many damage blessings

junior needle
#

Ghost is really good for deadshot/dnd

#

Insane value

uncut pebble
#

And currently with my mk12 I can 3tap reapers with exe stance.

amber cliff
#

ur insane freak

rigid pilot
#

I thought ghost didn't proc DnD?

junior needle
#

it does

uncut pebble
#

Dnd?

junior needle
#

you're thinking of reciprocity

rigid pilot
#

Was it the other thing 🤔

#

Ah yea

uncut pebble
#

What is "dnd"?

rigid pilot
uncut pebble
#

Oh that.

rigid pilot
#

Unlimited stamina

uncut pebble
#

Ghost counts for the stamina restore?

#

That's wild.

sinful swallow
#

Yeah

#

Counts as dodging gunfire

uncut pebble
#

Well then...

last parcel
rigid pilot
#

Oh yea striped down also does count for DnD I should have known

junior needle
#

reciprocity has a different activation mechanic and is pretty scuffed

rigid pilot
#

Dinner and Dragons

gilded wraith
#

Recip is pure melee?

rigid pilot
#

I think it works for ranged too but

#

Weirdly

uncut pebble
#

Well, now then... What to trade out on my lasgun?

#

I have headhunter and deadly accurate.

#

Oh well nevermind I can only trade out headhunter.

junior needle
#

DA seems to be the preferred to trade

uncut pebble
#

I already did my 2nd mod on perks...

#

Cringe!

junior needle
uncut pebble
#

Well at least I'll be having an extra 25% crit rate so maybe deadly accurate won't be so terrible.

topaz lance
#

Ghost counts for duck and dive? Makes me want to look at the laspistols again.

junior needle
#

yep

uncut pebble

@tall torrent so how good is this

crude fiber

this doesn't seem so bad...at least not in the psykanium KEKW_ogryn

The handling is kind of the worst thing about the bolt pistol at the moment honestly

#

damage wise it performs well enough. Except against infested enemies, I don't know what they were thinking there

infested enemies are resistant to conventional weaponry while lasers and flame do more damage

I get the lore reason, but balance-wise it's dumb

Hey guys, is the level 14 bolter any good?

#

Just got the game and got to level 11 for my first few hours, wondering is all

Bolter is ok but requires some attention to make work

If you’re just leveling stick with whatever has decent stats in the armory

Worry about real gear at level 30

# idle pecan would this be a good built

i'd make something more like this
reciprocity is iffy when dodging ranged attacks
spending 4 poitns for onslaught means kraks are just for bulwarks/bosses and you can already deal with that with frags/voc

focus target is good for deadshot

Hello guys , i have a question. Does onslaught skill work with ranged weapons?

pseudo spade
#

if i use rapid fire lasgun do i get brittlenmess?

somber axle
#

Yes

#

It works very well with the Recon Mk VId

#

2.5% per stack, stacking 16 times

#

40% brittleness on target at max stacks

pseudo spade
#

yup testing on same , thanks

somber axle
#

and the rate of fire of the Recon Mk VId lets it stack it fast enough to get use out of it

last parcel
#

ok now go kill

somber axle
#

Recon Mk VIIa doesn't have a fire rate fast enough to get much value out of Onslaught though

#

With Onslaught and Rending Strikes you can comfortably melt Crusher faces off

#

It also helps vs Flak but tbh you're probably already running +25% flak as a weapon perk anyway so it's not that big of a difference

@somber axle Apparently I had a 13g with those supposed blessings on it already

unfortunate

faint beacon

1 second+ delay before it even starts up again off that heavy

somber axle
#

I thought the change to let H3 loop into L3 might change it to let it use Savage Sweep

#

Wrath is still the better blessing on the XIIIg then

#

plus you still have to build into H3 before you can begin the loop

#

just much easier to go all in on spamming lights with Wrath

#

even if it did work

faint beacon

Nvm

#

found out how you can loop Heavy + lights but I feel like its...

not rewarding as much?

you have to push attack

then do Heavy + light
