one tapping everything with the meaty sound of the bolt pistol

sleek garden
#

People don't realize how bad a group of traitor guard shooters hurt

faint beacon
#

Not as fun mfers when I nuke the entire horde with one single shredder

#

Lmao

pastel yew
sleek garden
#

I wish they didn't nerf them after the foundryplex update

pastel yew
#

I feel like the actual doing of stuff is what makes things fun

sleek garden
#

I felt like the king for a bit

pastel yew
sleek garden
#

My build was vindicated

pastel yew
#

I think the shooter nerf was definitely not great, they just needed some slight adjustment

faint beacon
#

The 10 pack of shooters can fuck you up

pastel yew
#

so they couldnt 1 tap you

sleek garden
pastel yew
#

a slight cooldown on taking damage from them

#

like once every .1 seconds

faint beacon
pastel yew
tall torrent
#

ykw make suppressed shooters & stalkers just charge into melee

faint beacon
#

It’s funny getting instantly downed

tall torrent
#

don't bother with making them duck for cover

pastel yew
#

controversial take but dodging is an op mechanic and should be adjusted

tall torrent
#

just have them charge into melee

pastel yew
#

its way too easy to just dodge every instance of damage

sleek garden
#

Actually the foundryplex is still definitely the worst map to fight shooters on

#

And controlling them is important

#

it's the only map like that

pastel yew
#

that's so dope

sleek garden
#

There's no cover

tall torrent
pastel yew
#

it feels the stamina depletion is way too high

faint beacon
#

Isn’t the charged stomp on CS similar with how fucking dumb it can be

pastel yew
#

why run the risk of getting stunned and eating shit when you could just... space + d, space + a

tall torrent
sleek garden
pastel yew
#

yeah if you get your guard broken you're going to lose a load of health for nothing

sleek garden
#

ridiculous

faint beacon
#

Ragers can put you in some insane stagger locks at times

pastel yew
sleek garden
#

It actually depends on the weapon though some are much for blocking than others

pastel yew
#

you can block while you dodge as a fail safe and that is it's only use

sleek garden
#

Knives kinda suck for blocking in general

#

The two handed weapons tend to be the best at blocking

#

The ogryn shield with my curios has like 10+ bars of stamina

pastel yew
#

sliding is also

#

pretty silly

#

for the benefit it conveys

thorn lark
pastel yew
#

open field loads of shooters? just slide.. they can do nothing

narrow frost
#

lol

sleek garden
#

At least the cleaver does

narrow frost
faint beacon
sleek garden
#

what do they have a lot of block power

faint beacon
#

More stamina means more blocks

sleek garden
#

I didn't know

faint beacon
#

Regardless

sleek garden
#

the last time I used one I didn't have that much stamina

faint beacon
#

Knives give a shit ton

sleek garden
#

or maybe that was the duelling sword

pastel yew
narrow frost
#

yes

sleek garden
#

Duelling sword has like

#

1 stamina by default or something

#

Or 2

tall torrent
#

knife +1
duelling sword +1
ogryn shield +3

pastel yew
#

still no human size shields

faint beacon
#

Dueling sword this

#

Knife that

sleek garden
#

When you accuse me of spreading misinformation this is who you are talking to

faint beacon
#

Fucking shovel

sleek garden
#

shovel has a defense stat

#

I hope it's good at blocking

grand perch
pastel yew
#

when would you block with the shovel though when you can just bonk

pastel yew
#

its crowd control is so good

tall torrent
sleek garden
#

dang

#

I used to use basically only the shovel and I eventually transferred to catachan

#

I couldn't deal with rager groups effectively

pastel yew
#

the catachans are cool, I really enjoy the parry and wish more weapons had an interesting special

sleek garden
#

It seems special attacks are generally reserved for stagger output on many weapons

#

duelling sword, axes, shovels

pastel yew
#

the shovels get the flip mode which is fun

#

some of them at least

sleek garden
#

I use the original shovel

#

the shovel stab is serviceable

#

And I don't get stuck

idle swallow
#

I still wish the weapon special for cowboy revolver was swap between normal ads sights and fan fire

pastel yew
#

that would be nice QoL

#

the weapons with the bash special are

#

so fucking meme

sleek garden
#

the cowboy revolver just needs more damage I think

grand perch
sleek garden
#

I like whipping it out and immediately plugging someone full of holes but it sucks when you shoot someone 3 times and they don't go down without a crit

pastel yew
grand perch
#

knocks ragers off their socks, as you might know

pastel yew
#

then keep the zarona as the planet destroyer but ammo limited

pastel yew
#

I didnt actually know that

sleek garden
pastel yew
#

I know the double barrel does

grand perch
#

yip. charge the bash with headhunters, ragers fall over

pastel yew
#

but also you're running a headhunter just one bang them

sleek garden
#

Could be right

pastel yew
#

so overstated though

#

like its definitely good

#

but its more a neat side benefit

faint beacon
#

Doesn’t mean they can’t kill them

#

But

pastel yew
#

most important targets are taller than shitter enemies

#

so you can just shoot over the top of their head

tall torrent
#

I don’t think cleave is the problem I think it’s the fact that its shy of breakpoints on every major enemy (with headshots) and is still reliant on finesse to do decent damage

sleek garden
#

yeah, but when you are in the thick of it and pull out the cowboy revolver to fan the hammer on a trapper and a little dude walks in your face it might get stopped

faint beacon
#

Bash can also push bursters back far

sleek garden
#

Otherwise yeah just shoot them in the head

pastel yew
sleek garden
#

I trust bash for it

pastel yew
#

I cant remember what weapon it was but I remember gun bashing a burster

sleek garden
#

It's funnier

pastel yew
#

and it went fucking

#

side ways

#

and exploded

#

never again, melee shoves only

sleek garden
#

Ogryn smack attack also throws them sideways

#

Just dodge sideways

#

Easy

#

It's sad many people do not trust barrels

#

I see people run around and blow them up early

#

before a big fight

faint beacon
#

Bash seriously seems risky

pastel yew
dim saddle
faint beacon
#

It’s just you bash and dash backwards and you’re done

sleek garden
#

Oh the headhunter autoguns you can charge up your gun bash and knock over ragers

pastel yew
#

?

#

honestly that mod is like

#

essential to me

#

I could not play without it with a lot of weapons

sleek garden
#

I see the crosshair

#

Not sure what you mean

pastel yew
#

I have a mod that lets me swap the default ones to

#

a dot

#

because why would I want the vague suggestion of area

tall torrent
sleek garden
tall torrent
pastel yew
#

you can swap it to a dot?

faint beacon
#

Yes

#

Iirc you can

tall torrent
#

Well it’s been that since SoMG update

faint beacon
#

There’s also a very small one

pastel yew
#

actually adding

#

a good feature

#

gold star for fatshark

#

lets see if we can get fullauto in too

#

that'd be nice

tall torrent
#

It came out 3 months ago KEKW_ogryn

sleek garden
#

They did also reowkr the crosshairs

#

In general

tall torrent
#

And the crosshairs are fairly accurate now

idle swallow
#

Need to let me make my own custom crosshair

tall torrent
#

To actual spread

sleek garden
#

I remember not liking it at first but they all are very accurate

pastel yew
#

my one wish would be dedicated light attack and heavy attack keys

tall torrent
#

Just put rapid fire on every weapon

tall torrent
pastel yew
tame lodge
pastel yew
#

its not as bad anymore but a previous medication made the game

#

almost unplayable

#

without fullauto and keep swinging

pastel yew
#

for colour blind people

#

or for those that just struggle to see generall

#

would also be nice

#

spidey sense mode as base game option for hearing impaired

#

there are a lot of mods that add accessability to the game that should just be in the game

grand perch
#

while we're at it: all tactical axe's bash attack staggers muties if you hit the head

faint beacon
#

Correct

#

Shovel and Taxe can do this

#

I’m unsure what other melees can hard stagger a charging mutant

pastel yew
#

not that it would matter since...

#

you can just one shot them anyway

tall torrent
last parcel
grand perch
#

oh the antax is able as well? thats good to know

#

also the other shovels can too, oneshotting muties is sort of a stagger innit KEKW_ogryn

last parcel
pastel yew
#

catching a mutant or a dog just right with a melee weapon

#

watching them zip away into the sky

#

need a basebal bat or something for the humies

idle swallow
#

Twacking a dog with a shovel heavy mid pounce is pure dopamine

hollow turtle
#

Lol flying dog still a thing?

#

Could've sworn they fixed that a while ago.

thorn lark
#

I've never flown a dog 😦

uncut pebble
#

Oh right someone else said that...

unique orchid
#

Charged thammer KEKW_ogryn

shadow dagger
#

I think oggy rock hitting a dog in midair also still works

#

I hope it does, anyways

tall torrent
pastel yew
#

it would take decades of dev time to implement such things no doubt

#

better to release the ps5 port then start working on the switch port which will look like the original doom in terms of quality

faint beacon
tall torrent
#

Nah PlayStation port is justified

pastel yew
#

and once again the games been basically abandonware as that's developed

#

remember that really nice period right after the xbox port?

#

where the game felt alive and got regular attention

#

that is sacrificed so we can get another port that will barely run Shrug

pastel yew
faint beacon
#

God people will not stop talking about the rumors of their next console

tall torrent
pastel yew
#

not that I doubt they exist just

faint beacon
pastel yew
#

why make a game for a system that cannot run it

#

I forget the versions of the xbox but from my understanding

#

one is barely able to get an unstable 30fps

tall torrent
pastel yew
#

and the other 60

#

I don't think I'd class unstable 30fps as running

#

especially in a game like this where reactions can be so tight

tall torrent
#

But for console, 60fps is still the standard

#

That’s still the industry standard

pastel yew
#

unstable 60 is what I've heard so that could mean a lot of things

faint beacon
#

Series X is standard 60 FPS

#

S?

pastel yew
#

also then server issues are a lot worse

faint beacon
#

Idk why the hell they made the S

#

to be brutally honest

#

its so bad

faint beacon
#

TRUE

tall torrent
#

That’s the problem

pastel yew
#

at least its not as bad the cyberpunk launch which was literally unplayable

#

playing this game on a controller also sounds

#

very not fun

tall torrent
#

But console people are fine with 60fps

faint beacon
#

Its the XB1 S hardware

#

but able to run New Gen games

#

literally

tall torrent
pastel yew
#

I mean

#

I guess

#

but I have never seen a console player do well

#

not even once

#

there comes a point where one input method is just worse

tall torrent
#

That’s not really justification for “they don’t deserve to play this game” imo

pastel yew
#

I mean I'd justify it in that the systems struggle to handle it, can't confirm it but earlier someone had mentioned horde sizes decreased after the xbox port

#

on top of that the development for people that had already purchased the game comes to a complete stand still

#

of no updates forever

tall torrent
#

Horde size decrease, elite spawn increase

#

They spawned less poxwalkers and more elites & specials

pastel yew
#

I would eat my hat, if the exact time the patches slowed to a stop from a reasonable pace

#

wasnt when they started the ps5 port

#

at least this time the game is in a working position but what about when the xbox port was being made/

#

I was there day 1, the game was in a shit state

tall torrent
pastel yew
#

it was like that until the port was done

pastel yew
#

it's just a rework to crafting and a new map

#

that matters very little to me honestly

#

compared to the skill tree patch?

tall torrent
pastel yew
#

it's not just about one big patch or not though like

#

after the xbox port we got like what

#

5 pretty reasonable patches

#

back to back

#

and an even t

#

and new maps new weapons

#

then nothing

#

radio silence

#

almost literally nothing until now

#

maybe I'm just being a bit of a conspiracy theorist

#

but there is no way the ps5 port has nothing to do with that

tall torrent
#

What’s wrong with porting to ps5 anyway

pastel yew
#

I wouldnt mind it if it didn't come at the cost of the game itself

#

it feels like shit to be continuously neglected in favour of releasing to a new market

#

when the actual game has basically felt unfinished the whole time

#

this was especially the case with the xbox port

#

I was there from beta like

#

the game was abandoned so they could sell to a new market

tall torrent
#

After the next update it’s basically all patched up

pastel yew
#

needs a significant amount of balancing

#

also the server issues

#

that are still super prevalent

tall torrent
pastel yew
#

you wanna know what the funny part is about actually being there since beta

#

the reward I got for the beta the shitty helmet

#

literally clips

#

with the face model

tall torrent
#

Clipping is like

#

FS honorary tradition

pastel yew
#

yup

#

the state of the cosmetics is

#

pretty silly

tall torrent
#

I figured out smth tho

#

Some of the “weird muscle rendering through clothing” stuff

#

Are caused by having mesh LOD set too low

pastel yew
#

that is super odd but I guess it makes sense

#

not the issue in my case though as I think I've got everything on high

tall torrent
#

Cadian Armor (sleeve roll) has that problem at <1 mesh LOD

#

I put mine to 1.5 and now it’s fine

pastel yew
#

all I'm saying is maybe they could have someone check the cosmetics they charge silly amounts of money for

tall torrent
#

I don’t care much for character cosmetics anymore

pastel yew
#

I'm not against the system of selling cosmetics but there has to be some quality control

tall torrent
#

Weapon cosmetics been good

pastel yew
#

I think the only weapon cosmetics I've bought have been so I can use the darker base colour while using weapon customization

#

I'm sad they

#

removed the stupid candle on the bolt pistol

#

I thought it was funny

tall torrent
#

I don’t rly care for weapon customization mod

pastel yew
#

being able to set an optic is massively helpful

tall torrent
#

A lot of instability/crashing reports I’ve seen are caused by that mod

pastel yew
#

you can also get combinations that are impossibvle

#

my heavy sword looks like a longsword

tall torrent
#

And the guns I play don’t need it

pastel yew
#

that's fair I tend to drift towards marksman type weapons

#

hit head or ded

tall torrent
#

Yea but I play laspistol / MG4 / plasma

#

I bypass the problem by playing with guns that have optics

pastel yew
#

yeah I mean don't need to attach optics to those they either got em or cant use em lmao

#

not that I ever aim with the laspistol anyway

#

very rare

#

weapons with good hipfire feel dope

tall torrent
#

Also, afaik

#

Porting game is

#

Not necessarily the same department as “making new stuff for existing game”

pastel yew
#

yeah I mean they're not gonna be the ones modelling stuff

#

but they will be the people implementing that new stuff into the code or whatever

tall torrent
#

That doesn’t change “what gets made” tho

pastel yew
#

I mean we can see a clear correlation between times we know a port is being worked on

#

and a complete drought of content

#

and there's reasonable reason to assume that is why

tall torrent
#

Prob before SoMG is when it started

pastel yew
#

unless the actual staff has mostly moved onto other projects which I mean

#

maybe

#

I think ps5 port was a bit before that

#

I also don't expect it to be too too far out

#

it recently got rated for ps5 in indonesia or something

tall torrent
pastel yew
#

dt2 hopefully

tall torrent
#

Doubt it’ll be DT2 lol

pastel yew
#

can cope and pray

#

vermintide got a game 2

#

;-;

tall torrent
#

It’s not even in “active development” stage yet

junior haven
#

I'm hoping for BurgerTide.

tall torrent
pastel yew
#

yeah I mean honestly dt has a lot figured out already

#

just needs more weapons

#

especially for psyker and ogryn ranged

#

and ogryn melee

#

more maps too

tall torrent
#

Ogryn melee weapons need to get looked at

pastel yew
#

yeah I mean, I didnt realise the launch for v2 was as bad

junior needle
#

Neglect the game for long periods to work on a console port is their consistent playbook

pastel yew
#

I'm certainly not buying the next game fatshark make

#

till a year into development

junior needle
#

2 years at least KEKW_ogryn

pastel yew
#

at least after year 1 I'll have an idea of the state of the game ;p

tall torrent
pastel yew
#

idk it definitely seems like they as a company do not give a shit about the people they've already sold the game to unless they arent busy selling it to other people

#

I'm still pretty bitter and jaded about year 1

tall torrent
#

I didn’t play year1 because it didn’t run on my pc KEKW_ogryn

junior needle
#

From postings on their linkedin, it seems likely that darktide is operating on a skeleton crew and the meat of the devs are doing a new game

pastel yew
#

why's it seem like vermintide gets more cool shit than darktide

#

post darktides launch

#

they're playin favourites

terse idol
pastel yew
#

though I know the real answer is that vermintide is a finished game and darktide needs to be fixed primarily

terse idol
#

Evidentally their qa just isn't there

#

Or it's outsourced

#

I imagine there's an acceptable level of jank

pastel yew
#

I'd be surprised if it's outsourced and not just

junior needle
pastel yew
#

not done

terse idol
#

And then down the road they just release it

tall torrent
pastel yew
#

I think a lot of cosmetics were made in one big batch right?

#

since a load of them got data mined

terse idol
#

Nothing is ever that broken
Maybe not besides the candle cosmetic that blocks the irons

pastel yew
#

so maybe there was just mega crunch to have them there n ready

#

and the checks just never happened

terse idol
#

Like ahh

#

Yeag

#

It's probably a level of crunch to get them out

junior needle
terse idol
#

And then qa just solves major clipping or physics stuff

#

Me as I need to mental gymnastics

junior needle
#

But here's my source on this possibility

terse idol
#

A fatsharg game original IP with the combat system they made

tall torrent
pastel yew
#

I think the nice thing about warhammer is having that established thing to draw from

junior needle
pastel yew
#

like you can release a warhammer or 40k think and not really have to establish much of the setting since most people coming in know

#

any new IP will have to really stand out

junior needle
#

What's wrong with spawn rates?

somber axle
#

Idk a version of Hab Dreyko where the tree becomes an increasing threat that can become dangerous enough to cause a team wipe would put stress into doing the objective and not just spending 10 minutes running in circles fighting elites/specials/hordes

#

i would like more auric maelstroms on board + maelstrom quickplay so people can fill in for leavers when we join late in queue timer (although maelstrom with 3 players + bot turns out to provide a nice level of difficulty for where my stack are rn)

terse idol
#

Not the teams that are like the inquisition's finest kill team

junior needle
toxic leaf
#

listen im just saying thats my opinion, its kind of boring to have difficulty be, spam specialist waves at you to see if something cracks

somber axle
#

It just means people who do the objective properly will see virtually no change but struggling teams get more pressure and it becomes more of a DPS check or CC check to keep the ai director away from one person long enough to do an objective before the threat grows

terse idol
#

It's fine to have an opinion

#

I will fight back cluelonca

terse idol
#

It makes it so weaker teams lose more often on those objectives

Strong teams will just

If they did a Darktide 2 and didn't do Tyranids what other enemy faction might they add in?

Tau would be like that brief time they buffed scab shooters to be slightly more dangerous and made everyone upset LOL

it's already kinda sad if my carapace solution on a build is slow, my friends are gonna be stealing all the crusher kills. more so next patch

terse idol
#

I could see a world with orkz

#

Issue being they're all pretty chunky

junior needle
#

Also they were drastically more dangerous

tall torrent
somber axle

That brief difficulty ramp up showed most Darktide players could not actually fight the Tau

You could have like Fire team veterans

The enemy

tall torrent
#

The main difficulty spike with shooter buff was to scab shooters because they chunk u at 30+ damage per shot after toughness break and they got better at breaking toughness

junior needle
#

However I have no objective evidence on me currently so I could be misremembering

vestal widget
#

actually had to switch a few builds to have a bit more sustain and not ignore lone shooters that patch

junior needle
#

But I know for sure the yellow shooters were chunking the shit out of my toughness

#

ACTUALLY

#

wAIT

#

I have videos

vestal widget
#

skill issue mostly tho, just used to borderline ignoring them bcuz they tickle

junior needle
#

When was that patch?

tall torrent
#

SoMG early on

junior needle
somber axle
#

Shooters were spending more time out of cover and would fire more frequently to try to encourage people to use cover and suppression. They also got a nerf to their time in cover when suppressed to keep them pinned down a bit longer but no one actually wants to take cover and use suppression and players have been conditioned to charge firing lines to get into melee so people were programmed to walk into firing squads LOL

#

I felt bad for Ogryns tho

#

The new map with that section after the lift having virtually no cover also hurt people a bunch

#

I miss it tbh

tall torrent
#

The per-shot damage is same between them

somber axle
#

Also there was an accuracy buff to Gunners over longer distances

#

Iirc

tall torrent
#

The green visor lasmen

somber axle
#

I thought for sure they also got buffed

tall torrent
#

Forgot

junior needle
#

There was something related to accuracy as well iirc

tall torrent
#

They removed the shooter changes soon after

somber axle
#

People were more focused on the non-elite shooter buff though

junior needle
#

The end result was they would absolutely gun you down

tall torrent
#

They should rly just
Make suppressed shooters & stalker charge into melee

#

Have them die for their beliefs in the face of enemy fire

somber axle
#

I want them to be more active

#

They sorta sit still and pop out of cover occasionally to fire off a short burt then return to hiding

#

It would be fun if they split off into small groups and attempted to maneuver to awkward angles to flank the player while they're engaged in melee with hordes

#

Get high ground instead of helplessly shooting into poxwalker backs

#

Make them smarter

tall torrent
#

They kind of do

somber axle
#

Shooting more often made them oppressive for damage against people running out in the open but shooters were still really dumb and predictable

tall torrent
#

But their flanking behaviour only works on lone players

#

U can trigger it in meat grinder

somber axle
#

They still just sat tight in one spot and only relocate when you charge into melee

#

If they survive long enough to run

tall torrent
#

But in a live game their aggro is split between multiple players and don’t flank as much

somber axle
#

They should turn up that behavior somehow

#

Add more high ground they can access

tall torrent
#

It’s similar to how if u spawn multiple melee elites in meat grinder they spread out and try to surround u

somber axle
#

If they were firing on players from ledges inaccessible by melee they would be a more persistent threat

#

There's like only a few spots I can think of that they do that with and usually they jump down into melee for no reason like they're Stormtroopers charging at Jedi

Apologies if this has already been addressed somewhere, but will the exe stance buff proc weapon specialist swapping? AKA swapping between melee and ranged can keep stance active?

you have to special on a target already staggered and only lasts for 2 seconds

The more blessings you got unlocked the more xp you’ll have to work with when the update drops

trim steppe
# tacit holly So whats the play if I havent played in a bit but plan on picking back up in the...

Keep at least 1 weapon from each family with good base stat distribution. Apparently all weapons will be able to be upgraded up to 380, but you cant choose which stats max out, its based on the weapon. So, good stat distribution will still be important and RNG based. Also weapons will be able to be freely swapped between Mks, so you only need 1 good one from each family. So strip as many T4s (and even T3s) off of weapons with bad stats

#

Locks are going away so the only rolls that matter are base stats. They said in a Q&A that if you have all T3 and T4 blessings for a weapon, that is probably enough for max mastery right on patch day

#

I have discovered a funny glitch purely because of Exe Stance

#

On a High Intensity Vent Purge Sniper Gauntlet Auric Damnation run 8 snipers spawned near the elevator in a room and then all crouched down as though waiting for the squad to walk near them but we'd already jumped down to the train to begin turning off the anti-air defenses

#

they refused to move the entire fight and the final segment was a cake walk

#

it felt like there were fewer special/elite spawns because of it too

#

hardly anything appeared

#

I only knew they were all stuck by the elevator room because of the funny Exe Stance wall hacks

#

ok it wasn't an elevator but like the airlock thing

isnt there another limit on "mod points" for blessings n stuff?

#

what blessings would you go on knife for better hoard clear

#

like fleshtearer mecry killer or somthing?

earnest bone
#

fleshtearer without uncanny is useless, as for uncanny/flesh tearer, it works as horde clear, but only useful if you are soloing (otherwise trash/horde mobs die way faster than FT kicks in), main purpose for that is to easily bleed maulers/crushers (not horde clear)

unborn moss
#

thx

#

dont really have problems with anything else I just plasma gun it but dont want to waste ammo clearing so I feel like clear knife might feel better

earnest bone
#

Bleed talent + Lacerate + Uncanny Strikes

#

maybe you'l like this one

#

Bleed talent + Mercy Killer + Uncanny Strikes is pretty strong, i run this myself

#

this can both horde clear (Mk6 knife) and antielite/boss

unborn moss
#

id have to lose field improv but Ill try it out it does sound fun

earnest bone
unborn moss
#

didnt read the bleed talent thats better than trying to force crit for mercy killer

#

xd

earnest bone
#

you can just wait till Sep 26

#

and make a bunch of knifes

earnest bone
#

Mercy Killer/Uncanny works awesome on Veteran

#

Zealot can use it too, but it's still RNG dependant on crit and that could be frustrating at times

#

while Vet is 100% reliable

#

As for Riposte/Precog, it's better on Zealot (100% crit rate)

unborn moss
#

was trying knife out on zealot but

#

plasmagun just too nice

#

do hoards have any armor to rend with uncanny

#

or does it interact with damage as more than just armor pen

earnest bone
#

it does add bonus damage against maniacs and unyelding

#

like +25%

#

+-

#

apart from giving you bonus damage versus flak and carapace

#

wont work for unarmoured

#

and i forgot if it works on infested or not

#

if you want to go full pervert

#

i recommend onslaught VId

#

with Infernus/Dumdum

and you can learn blessing by just using the weapon

unborn moss
#

oh wtf

earnest bone
#

and all weapons will have 380 potential even if you buy 340 wep

#

you will see how it will be at 380 and can use resources to upgrade to 380

unborn moss
#

wonder if they will add somthing else to grind at

#

I like grinding for weapon upgrades its just annoying how rng it is

earnest bone
#

you will grind

  • Perfect base weapons if you want to
  • Grind Weapon Mastery to learn blessings easy way
#

and just have fun i guess without casino

#

trying all weapons available

#

without investing 50 gaming hours (resources) per weapon

unborn moss
#

100% better for the majority of players

earnest bone
#

yeah

#

its an awesome change

unborn moss
#

im just grind braind I think this is a good change

earnest bone
#

one of the main complains from a lot of new and semi-new players is RNG casino with both main stats and blessings/perks

unborn moss
#

precog mercy killer sounds so based tbh

earnest bone
#

its awesome on zealot, but that's because you get 100% crit

#

im not sure how it would feel on Veteran

#

while Bleed + Mercy Killer + Uncanny

unborn moss
#

its weakspot powerr too right?

earnest bone
#

will be stronger

#

yeah precog is critdmg+weakspot

#

but it only procs on dodge

#

and 2s times

#

its shit when you poke the boss in the ass while he's focusing on teammates

#

same goes for elites

unborn moss
#

ill try out both versions but I just plasma gun bosses in the face

#

works out alright]

tried to go back to powersword

#

but the lack of mobility

#

feels so bad now that ive tasted it

#

its also kinda sucks when you are overwhelmed

#

unless you can back yourself up with frags

unborn moss
#

spam frags ult run away with knife is a lot easier than ps

earnest bone
#

knife dodges and mobility

unborn moss
#

id prefer they just bring other weapons mobility up

#

not to knife levels

#

but at least a bit more

earnest bone
#

even Puskers these days love to run Knife over Dueling Sword

unborn moss
#

if they just nerf knife to the ground without mobility buffing anything else I riot

earnest bone
#

or just deal with it

#

since not like the horde clear is bad

unborn moss
#

it feels pretty bad but I could just be playing it wrong

#

have mk6 do you spam lights or still heavy combo block cancle

earnest bone
#

the only pressure i feel with knife is on Auric HISTG or Auric Mael when most teammates are dead and you must deal with everything yourself

#

this turns into a game of cat and mouse

unborn moss
#

yea but every other weapon would probably7 feel worse with less mobility in that situation

earnest bone
#

so you just dodge, kite and run away

#

avoid corners

#

and CC

unborn moss
#

what im really excited for are the bolter buffs

earnest bone
#

bolter deserved those and fixes for bolt pistol

#

will make it far less obnoxious

#

and more to come, since it's just a first change

unborn moss
#

hopeing pullout time is fixed and it gets 1 shot breakpoints to most smaller enemies like plasma

#

going between the 2 is so funny
