Sell???

Prolly sell tbh since you can make any recon into any recon

I had every single tier 1, 2, 3 and 4 blessing pre-update

Unless you REALLY don't wanna spend mats to change the blessings and perks

ngl it's a lot of fun, two shoting crushers is great

not for all weapons but all lasguns and most other weapons too

yeah see i'd rather have the talent point and not have to go for a body shot first to proc it, but hey do you, if it works it works

at one point i could only see like a meter in front of me due to the ultrafog

did they fix that interaction?

is the stat preview sometimes wrong for the weapons? I had one chainsword say its max was 40 mobility, but when I powered it up it hit 60 lol

#

Isn't this PDF veteran guide a bit outdated? Has recon lasguns as a (niche) pick, when in my experience, my Vld is like, one of the best guns available

#

Just for recons, they are pretty spot on with most other things

#

but the Vld just slaps immensly hard

somber axle
#

Yeah the PDF is out of date

#

The other link is a WIP 2.0 guide

sullen scarab
#

I guess as long as it has a bunch of 80's then I can assume the mobility will go up

#

It's kinda wild that the Recon Mk VId/Recon Mk XII became the big winner of Secrets of the Machine God when the tweaks feel so minor. Slight bump in ADM for unarmoured/maniac at near range, fire rate increase and magazine increase

sharp epoch
#

And plasma gun still has that weird mechanic where max charge rate does less damage

they’re trying to hotfix it

minor iron
#

so im dumb, want some slight clarification on the new power system

when rolling at brunt, are we still looking for good rng stats for the max potential or is it all guaranteed now?

hasty otter
#

Thats awful. I found the perk/stat combo i really liked and i rolled with it into the end. Now all the hours i've spent with rewards me with only 2 mastery levels.

#

Then i get punished by not getting to swap weapon marks.

Having fun with exe stance + WS + double barrel, though I'm not sure what the best blessing for the gun would be.
Also, I would like there to be more movement speed options on the vet tree... feels too slow, wanna zoom around.

topaz lance
oblique orbit
#

its like 10k xp for any green weapon that matches the class

hasty otter
oblique orbit
#

my devils claw mastery is 0 right now and 1 green brings it to 2

#

the final level is only 25k

hasty otter
#

I didn't really want to grind the awful sticker book crap.

tall torrent
#

It’s way faster now

#

U can just spam buy from brunt’s armory

#

Upgrade each to green

#

And sacrifice to hadron

#

If u want infantry Lasgun, then buy -> upgrade to green -> sacrifice to infantry Lasgun family

hasty otter
#

Does higher tiers give more exp?

tall torrent
#

It’s 8~9k mastery XP per green sacrificed

hasty otter
#

Or its not worth it

tall torrent
somber axle
hasty otter
#

Okay. I see.

somber axle
#

idk if this is new or not but it's REALLY COOL

tall torrent
#

It’s a matter of whether u want to spend more dockets or plasteel

oblique orbit
#

i have a blue giving more xp than a green right now so probably dont upgrade to blue

tender pasture
#

Dueling Sword is kinda nonsense on WS Vet, been pairing it with the double barrel

hasty otter
regal belfry
#

or if you have luck you can buyout brunts green/blue weapons

tender pasture

Because the horde clear is mid no matter how hard you go on it

last parcel
tall torrent
oblique orbit
#

it seems to be based on the stats more than the level

regal belfry
#

duelling swords are single target weapons

Because u will need a lot of plasteel for empowering the good rolls u get

oblique orbit
#

430 blue psword gives less xp than a 470 green axe

regal belfry
#

uff

hasty otter
#

I have a final question. What was the final RNG portion that they didn't remove?

thick rose
#

so if a stat is [ 0% | 60% ] - does that mean it can get to 60 or it will get to 60 when maxed?

hasty otter
tall torrent
#

But the RNG aspect they kept is really minimal

#

U can get godroll distribution on most weapons within 3 tries

hasty otter
tall torrent
hasty otter
#

Oh great

tall torrent
#

But only endpoint matters cuz ur gonna be taking max power stuff in the end

#

And u can see which endpoint distributions are good

hasty otter
#

I was hoping you're going to just say start point.

tall torrent
#

??

#

Only the endpoint matters

#

You’re not gonna take a 310 power grey weapon into auric unless ur doing challenge runs or are trolling

hasty otter
#

But you said the end point is randomized too

tall torrent
#

Yea

#

But they’re like

#

4x80 + 60

oblique orbit
#

its based on the start

tall torrent
#

Half the time

#

lol

regal belfry
#

i used 370-380 grey weapons in auric heresy

topaz lance
#

It was like 330

oblique orbit
#

everything over 54 on this can get to 80 and everything under cant

topaz lance
#

4% mobility stat

hasty otter
#

I really don't understand why they can't just remove the rng completely

tender pasture
#

Because gamers

tall torrent
#

It should be gone yes but this is within tolerable ranges

tender pasture
#

This is more than tolerable

#

This is picking the good fruit at the supermarket level

#

nah i want the old system back chadgryn

hasty otter
#

I am used to PD2 where you'd buy a weapon and you'd get the base stat and then you'd modify/increase its stats from there

#

Its just weird how it could easily be applicable here.

oblique orbit

Old system was wild, you'd watch people roll up to aurics and maelstroms with complete trash while other people talked mad shit about dropping 3 mil dockets on a good base roll

# hasty otter without the rng.

if u think trying 3 times to get a perfect distribution is "too much RNG" then u prob should wait for a possible-never-coming crafting update v2

oak ivy
#

they nerf ordo docets?

tall torrent
#

it takes unironically no effort to get perfect distribution weapons rn

tender pasture
#

Tbf it's usually a good few rolls more than 3 at Brunt's

hasty otter
#

I am just saying that if the difference between the stat distribution is so minimal, why even have it? Just give the static stats.

The design meta is to encourage whaling nonsense

Never understood why people would whinge about Tencent in Darktide, if they were tryna MTX mfs you'd know it

Well mob mentality dictates that tencent = bad

Tencent is majority owned by a South African concern now

Man on internet says tencent bad

Bolt Pistol actually feels really good now.

The bolt guns would be a lot better if the sights were better. Irons on the bolt pistol feels too small

15 stacks of MF is noticeably crazy on ttk

#

But honestly one point investment into mf might be good if you’re going for onslaught too

#

The stand around and generate stacks is mid af on high fire rate guns

I do use the 15 stacks talent, it comes in handy often

red robin

75% increased to 112.5% is quite noticeable

quick check up - is charging up plasma still completely useless?

half year ago it was, with regular attacks getting higher dps with significantly less heat gen, but there were patches...

toxic leaf
#

ok i think i been using the heavy sword wrong, the special attack 1 tapping non armor specialists and elites is pretty fucking pog

#

and the heavy sweeps do exactly what rashad does, but obviously it needs the slight charge time

its still balls against any kind of carapace but thats what kraks are for

somber axle
# low wagon quick check up - is charging up plasma still completely useless?

There's a new blessing that's just Volatile but better but tbh nothing major changed with Plasma so uncharged shot spam is still the go to. It's more ammo efficient and that's way more important now after Surv Aura nerfs (though the extra ammo on maps makes that not such a big deal anyway unless you're in an ammo hungry team)

#

I think the new combo is Energy Leakage + Gets Hot? Or whatever the one that reduces heat generation by like 60% on a crit

#

Charging Plasma has like one thing it does better than uncharged shots

pseudo fiber
#

Gets hot and rising heat is good too

#

Just curious did anyone else haven their skill tree reset? Didnt notice til i tried to use for the emperor and it was just the basic focus skill

topaz lance
#

Big boy feels best as a DMR in my opinion, with the pistol you can do funky things like run WS. Zoom around etc.

tame lodge

#

Bolt Pistol has better one shot potential due to Deadly Accurate + Surgical if you go that route

which combat axe do I want to try?

rashad is ol reliable

I want to combine this with a exuctioner stance build around crits and weakspot damage. is this a good idea?

Also you want as low Collateral as possible on Recon

idle swallow
slow spade
#

Brb spawning only beasts of nurgle

tame lodge
#

Well you can keep crit chance

grand perch
#

get rid of punishing salvo, thats trash. get dum dum instead. ranged weak spot damage can also go away in favor of maniac damage

#

crit chance on recons is great with shock trooper, where youre sorta headed anyway if youre going for exec

slow spade
#

A shame Deadshot is so dangerous on Recon

#

Would be nice

grand perch
#

with the right ADS discipline or a clown build, it works great

pale spear
pale spear
#

should i just focus only on crit damage instead, not both?

barren raven
#

Had to redo all my talents on each character after the update

grand perch
#

10% from perk is almost nothing, since its not a flat 10% added on top. instead, only the extra damage from the weakspot hit gets an added 10%, not your base damage

grand perch
#

50% from the blessing is not bad per se, but its only 3 shots on a low damage high rof gun. not worth it

#

the 30% from talents is great though

pale spear
barren raven
hardy marlin
#

whats a good melee to bring with the bolter? probably something horde clear related

grand perch

would have to check

pale spear

?

tiny summit
#

Yes bonus crit dmg is like bonus weakspot

pale spear
#

including the one in the tallent tree

tiny summit
#

You more so just worry about the crit chance

grand perch

crit chance is what you want

tiny summit
#

Wonder if this crafting update actually makes Fatshark realize how shit the numbers for those bonuses are now that we have full freedom to choose

But even then

25% extra damage against some armor type

Or even 5% crit chance

I’m gonna get home today, buy the ASL stuff, run around with a hellbore and a saber, be him

ok gamers

teach me how to 1 shot dregs with a bolt pistol

Deadly Accurate + Surgical

Can't go wrong with that combo on a 500 base damage gun

glad kite
slow spade
#

Shoot them

glad kite
#

but i hit them in the chest and they dont die

slow spade
#

Aim higher

forest maple
#

Whats more important for Helbores? Ammo or stability? Got 2 of them, one with 60% ammo and one with 60% stability (all other stats 80)

grand perch
#

dont hit them with the pistol shoot them

slow spade
#

Ammo imo as you're not typically spamming it

forest maple
#

Go with the 60% ammo one then?

grand perch
#

neither are really important on helbore but ammo is slightly more useful than stab

forest maple
#

ah i see

slow spade
grand perch
#

i feel like the bolter buff brought back veteran full auto spammers

#

and im not happy about that

slow spade
#

We'll go back to revolver/plasma spammers instead

#

Do not worry comrade

primal remnant
slow spade
primal remnant
#

they are still allowed to run plasma

grand perch
#

bolter full auto is pointless in so many situations. go for controlled single shots when youre not a zealot

primal remnant
#

Speaking of which; WHy run the bolt pistol over the plasma gun?

#

I'm not sure what its for

primal remnant
#

I am more asking, they both seem to fill the same niche; Pull it out and onetap specials in the head. What sets the two apart

#

like sell the BP to me

grand perch
primal remnant
grand perch
#

and by spamming i mean using it on small groups of poxwalkers, singular specials etc

hollow bane
#

whats best to run on plasma gun? would gets hot and the heat reduction blessing be good?

grand perch
#

im still a gets hot! gloryhunter kind of guy. especially since i use the talent to distribute toughness to everyone

slow spade
#

The +20% power based on heat one

pale spear
#

do you need to stop fireing to reset sustained fire? or does it cicle on trough?

toxic leaf
#

ok i think i was a bit wrong about heavy sword 9, it works pretty well

pale spear
#

i know the name would imply it does but that doesnt mean anything in games

toxic leaf
#

better into ragers than rashad, neutral into specials/elites, much worse into armor, and slightly worse into a horde

#

is it?

toxic leaf
#

9 has a pretty intuitive set, i like it for that

#

the armor damage doesnt bother me because im on kraks

pale spear
toxic leaf
#

but it swings slower

radiant chasm
#

The hswords can all do their function with deathblow so it comes down to preference and moveset

toxic leaf
#

both should be chopping heads but rashad is using light attacks and heavy sword is heaVY ATTACKING?

radiant chasm
#

I prefer the mk9 cause it’s the least work

broken spade
#

How's the new plasma blessings?

toxic leaf
#

actually yea, i did notice that in this last map

#

i was hitting a lot more enemies on head swings

radiant chasm
#

But whichever mark you enjoy will be the best for you, i do not think there is a massive gap between them

toxic leaf
#

what i was not doing yesteday when i poo poo'd the heavy sword was the special attack

#

really quick overhead follow up kills ragers, the special itself kills all elites

#

lemme try the 6, i dont really care about the lack of armor pen because i run kraks and was using bolter the past few maps

#

why would this be exclusive to the 6? dont they all have the same special

#

oh im seeing it, 6 does slightly more damage

#

to carapace

hasty otter
#

Did they buff the lasgun la?

toxic leaf
#

hmm, i still like the 9, the 6s heavies are awkward into bruisers it seems

hasty otter
#

Its seems like its almost got the same damage as the xii

toxic leaf
#

yea the special attack is key, i was not using that yseterday

#

it fucks with elites and specials

pale spear
#

is competive urge considered good? does it trigger enough to be worth it?

toxic leaf
#

the followup heavy is so quick, it is really nice for rager trains

#

i would never run competitive urge unless i had spare points. and considering its veteran, you will never have spare points

#

this update has been so nice, new weapon variety, im actually using exec stance now

#

bolter feels pretty good to use

#

veteran has a lot of points to spare if you dont go down right side melee to weapon specialist

#

but after trying that tree out ofr the first time a few months ago, i cant imagine playing without those talents

#

veteran melee is so good that not leaning into it seems silly

trim hemlock
#

Wait, what? When were their ADMs changed?

toxic leaf
#

well you always go down middle

pale spear
#

then im having a toss up between, born leader, iron will and confirmed kill. this is on a voice of command character. got any imput on these tallents?

toxic leaf
#

but yea ranged has a lot of talents at the top you want

serene bough
#

iron will is always a safe pick

toxic leaf
#

tac awareness and iron will are auto picks

serene bough
#

i dont always run iron will personally

toxic leaf
#

you dont have to, it doesnt not make it one of veteran's strongest passives

#

especially with voc, maybe you can justify it on exec stance or infiltrate

#

but with voc, thats just permanent 50% tdr lol

serene bough
#

i hope they tweak VoC soon, or rather golden THP

toxic leaf
#

gold toughness is broken

serene bough
#

true, tac awareness is the real problem

toxic leaf
#

tac awareness + psychokinetic aura psyker lol

#

sleepwalk through anything

serene bough
#

oh by the way, what is the new event

are there any new mobs or is it just book collecting

topaz lance

for such a randomly placed talent, how the fuck is psychokinetic aura a thing

ill dm it to you so i dont spam picutes

agile tac axe is kinda cute ngl, I like it

toxic leaf
#

executioner's stance is really good, its just not voc

frank ether
#

exe is poppin this patch, its great

serene bough
#

exec lasting forever is okay bc you inheretly need to eliminate baddies to upkeep the damage boost

toxic leaf
#

being able to identify and delete 10 specialists in 3 seconds will never not be strong

serene bough
#

TA kind of has the same principle but its slightly different

candid agate
red robin
#

any opinion on plasma gun blessings?

#

anything notable or "fun" on the plasma gun of all weapons

toxic leaf
#

recon lasguns could always use extra damage

cedar imp
toxic leaf
#

not every gun is plasma or zarona

cedar imp
#

m1's are better than M2 + M1s

toxic leaf
#

try exec stance with an IAG or recon and you'll see

#

they become very accurate to long range and dont need to dump ammo into that idiot sniper

red robin
#

the agripnaa recoil becomes non existant

#

deadshot makes it not jump at all

candid agate
#

eh true

toxic leaf
#

it solves one of the "problems" of using non one shot ranged weapons vet has

serene bough
#

my biggest gripe with exec stance was it vanished on switching to melee

toxic leaf
#

the problem being most groups look to the vet to delete long range specialists because they probably dont have the weapons

serene bough
#

now that this issue is gone, I find it pretty tolerable

red robin
#

yeah

#

it doesn't have the survivability with shout

toxic leaf
#

shout needs to be reworked, not nerfed

red robin
#

i did a build with exhilarating takedown, and damn i just got my assed kicked

serene bough
#

i think before a VoC rework tac awareness should recieve the survivalist treatment

red robin
#

confirmed kill or bust

topaz lance
#

huehue

toxic leaf
#

all CDR talents should have some sort of cool down on proccing imo

toxic leaf
#

except ogryn's lucky bullet cdr, the proc chance is the cool down

red robin
#

that spread reduction on executioners stance and run n gun nutty

#

bro got the hunting double barrel choke

topaz lance
toxic leaf

but they often dont

hidden tree
#

best chainsword blessings?

toxic leaf
#

veteran has no less than 4~ weapons that 1 shot specialists at range (helbore, bolter, zarona, plasma)

#

veteran does it unaffected by suppression and has a crowd control special to knock thigns down to do it

red robin
#

so the best blessings on the plasma gun is still blaze away and gets hot?

#

or are there contenders

toxic leaf
#

show me an ogryn build than can kill 3 snipers and a tox bomber at 50m in 3s like a zarona vet

i love the change to flamers

tall torrent
toxic leaf
#

to the original point, the vet shouldnt and should never be blamed or looked to because hes not using teh build that does it

red robin
#

ty for answering my guy

toxic leaf
#

its a design flaw wherein difficulty is just throwing specialists at the team in huge numbers

#

and veteran has the best tools available for instant killing of them as they spawn

slow spade
toxic leaf
#

zealot and psyker can too, they also have a revolver and ranged tools

red robin
slow spade
tall torrent

There’s a point to be made with gets hot + power blast but I think gets hot + rising heat is usually just better

also trappers from the top rope

It's the ittle shooters for me. The melt your toughness so quickly, especially when spread out

Wasn't sure due to the intially low heat levels

you want high heat right?

And get all the extra behind the scenes stuff from charged shots

but to get back to the original point, i do agree that people queuing in and hoping the veteran does the heavy lifting are dumb and should be cognizant if that when using quickplay

inner lava

red robin
#

i dont think that way at all

#

team game

I always do heavy lifting regardless

what shotgun is good

serene bough
#

yeah i mean, everyone should be killing

toxic leaf
#

but i play qp exclusively and find that if i dont personally take a weapon to do it, nobody else will

tame lodge
#

Hold up a second
You're telling me I can get 20% extra power and get a 120 cleave?

red robin
#

means more specials for me to hog with executioners stance

toxic leaf
#

which is annoying because sometiomes i dont want to play revolver on zealot lol

#

and i dont and then games are adventurous

red robin
#

i get what you are saying tho

#

but that seems like a random issue

toxic leaf
#

it is what it is

tacit patio

Lucius my beloved

red robin

should account for what weakness is of your ranged weapon

generally a build should be fit to take on all roles

to acount for randoms not synergizing well with your build

red robin
toxic leaf
#

i guess kantreal or whatever has the slug

#

very well said

red robin
#

so true

serene bough
#

yeah, vet is a very versatile class in that regard

toxic leaf
#

veteran can take almost any non (double barrel) shotgun and melee and do what needs to be done even in histg damns

tame lodge
toxic leaf
#

with less stress, which is a key point. ive played martyr zealots going in and goign in full throttle but its a lot more micro

tame lodge
#

I haven't stopped to see the name changes

toxic leaf
#

yea, but what i meant was ive playesd martyr zealots in teh backline killing things with melee

#

not the actual damage

#

the only time my vet is meleeing a sniper is if he spawned right next to me lol

inner lava
#

lads

#

i have a heretic shotty

red robin
#

damn, pretty baller that the combat shotgun has solid blessings and perks across all 3 variants, no respite and full bore + flak and maniac, you can just swap mark based off how you feel

inner lava
#

how do i cleanse it

toxic leaf
#

anyways thats my opinion and you dont have to agree with it, re: veteran and ranged weapon choice

tame lodge
#

Oh Agri didn't change

red robin
#

if i take double barrel, i just go infiltrate with 50% dmg resist and 60% gunner resist, i am going to face tank them

but that pesky sniper is gonna be another randies cross to bear

I figured you'd need uncanny stacked at least

#

not that it'd be possible with 0

#

it's not?

the more you know

with it stacked on psyker it opened up two shots on carapaced enemies

that I didn't know

only really run dd for the voidstike, the one fun psyker weapon

isnt DS like a really single target focused weapon
