its quite useful
Can get away with demo team only on smokes if its easier for pathing imo
what the dumpstat on the duelling sword?
I thought about taking field improv and getting demo
Mobility for dps or cleave damage for mobility
I’d dump mobility
That’s what the pin said
I'm completely over field improv, had enough of chodes using it to gobble up every ammo box charge to spam nades poorly
yeah ima go with that

i have been trying smokes tonight and there is an appreciable difference
I just use medkits for myself
i do have a meta build as well as a shooter build
i drop a medkit when i see biggest man down at 30 hp from 400
or when everyone is half or at the start of a horde
i like to use my equipment
kill zone works surprisingly often
but i take the one that stops stuns at shield break
I never really got into vets gunplay I always used my range for elites or specs
the issue is it's not reliable to proc like say agile engagement
so you can't rely on it for breakpoints
and any extra damage that doesn't hit a breakpoint is wasted
Some people actually treat it as left 4 dead and mag dump everything
not if your team is shooting at it
Got called annoying as well lol cause I was encouraging my teammates who got downed that they can do better
Hey, if you see me with 500 hp you better hide it.
Because boy is really hungry with that medshun
sign me the fuck up
Zealot easy game
there's an objectively correct answer and nobody is gonna like it, not even me
m1 psyker is the highest dps in the game and is infinite ammo
oh god why my friend
It just is lol
It also hurts to play physically
especially in no ammo all melee elites
also change name thy it hurts to see that
it's also incredibly annoying to play with an m1 psyker
like even beyond them just deleting everything
@frank basindis
What about me?
desperately looking for a way out of incriminating himself and points to a random bystander
What’s going on?
change thy name it got pizza in it and its making me hungry
Azure got very close to being shot yesterday too
what the hell you mean i got close to being shot yesterday
oh sorry 2 days ago
lol
ugh thanks allot @frank basin now i have actually ordered pizza
hot and spicy
a mutie just threw me into a med station
HE ORDER THY PINAPPLE PIZZARIA
Thank him
i am become servitor distributor of medicae
this
Pineapple on pizza is good
I don't think we should be glorifying making mistakes that cost lives. Manpower is a resource and like any resource it should be shepherded.
So we shouldn't glorify most of american military history? damn right
Personally I think we should view any military history as a learning process of "lets not do that again"
try tell that to the leaders and their die-hard fanatics lol
The “I’ll fucking do it again in new way”
@wet ether why you took my warframe joke seriously?
how many times have i nearly shot myself in the foot exactly also i'll tell y'all how dominos pineapple pizza tastes once it arrives
That was Có-creator Rebecca Ford almost call millions player “registered lose-… players”
what infantry autogun do you all recommend?
V or VIII
I is not bad either but it plays more like a marksman-type weapon that care a lot about headshots, but it unfortunately has a lot of unpredictable recoil unless u go exe stance
thanks
idk does inspiring presence (talent) combine inspiring barrage (blessing) get bigger toughness recharging?
No
No
Not bugged
Working as intended
Inspiring barrage is toughness gain
Inspiring presence is toughness regen
Different things
wierd code
Just use my guide
i did read it
I specify things very clearly
the one never is the inspiring presence
Yea because it’s horrible
do you wish make it 25%?
?
One thing that people didn't know that am stubborn to do something. 🤷♂️
Wait, isn't the Regen speed just how fast the activation is?
Not how fast it'll regenerate
?
its both
from this guide
it's fantastic on a premade
but pubs? frankly not that useful
if you can coordinate in a premade and have your zealot throw out fire nades with 100% sustain for an entire event it can feel amazing and really worth
but the extra fast healing and nades just get wasted on pubs
especially since healing is already wasted on pubs by ogryns sitting on the medipacks not realising their fat arse is draining the entire charge
sometimes i cant even blame them when it's placed poorly
It's either the ogryn not realizing what they're doing or the smiteker that keeps taking damage because they suck that eats up the whole damn medipack.
My favorite is pugs placing kits and boxes in elevators
AKA right before a med station and resupply
That shit enrages me.
Especially if it's a field improv vet.
The road to hell might be paved with good intentions, but damn, man, we don't need a medipack down literally 40 seconds away from a medicae station.
At least check the charges before you decide to use it.
This seem fit for squad leader; stay close the toughness regen delay shorter and faster regeneration; for inspiring presence
The charm talent boost aura coherency
I hold them in case we need them
Thankfully, I've never felt the need to panic drop a medkit too often
Outside of "oops all ragers" events
It is strange to see someone else suffer in this way for a change.
I am a toughness vet and even I consider coherency regen to be unreliable and slow at best
rare build ogryn using "stay close" aura that kick it up.
Even then
Max out your toughness capacity, toughness damage resistance and toughness gain from actions. Do not rely on coherency regen
it is you believe teammate always stray away most time?
No it’s that even with all the possible improvements to coherency regeneration, you are still better off getting toughness from other sources
The curio perks being toughness, health, and ability cooldown reduction is a far better deal for a voice of command vet. I can tank a Crusher overhead to the face in isolation, and I get and give toughness from a ton of things
But now I sleep
did not impress me
How I deadass look at my teammates killing poxies while me (downed) and another vet (dogged) fucking die
the unfortunate event
Was hard carrying
They died just at the boss elevator to a tox flamer
And a sniper
Lesson learnt
Don't assume your dumbass teammates are moving up with you
dont get downed
Try not to get downed while getting boxed in by a Bulwark and multiple chaff
With a crusher getting up from the ground
And plasma at 100%
plasma user detected
SO at 10 stacks of weapon spec
i had an ogryn wait till a dog was 2 ticks away from killing me to save me, and then he missed the shot. he was using a kickback
Used my last shredder to TRY to kill the poxies
Turns out there were more
138.6k boss dmg
So my zealot and 3rd vet
They were fighting the pox horde
While 10 metres away we were dyin
i remember i queue up 4 vet, it run well
it happened to me
i was losing a lot that time grinding plasteel
and am bored playing darktide
Do you need to have the bolt pistol out while throwing a nade to get increased explosion radius from lethal prox?
nah, is passive
thats hard to do
boxed in by chaff and bosses okay but bulwarks arent that much of a deal
js a single krak or frag is good
If you run frags, take demo stockpile + demo team if possible
Outside of frags, usually stockpile is enough
Field improv comes down to how many luxury points you have left at the end of the build
i take both
i think if youre gonna go for demo stockpile (which you almost always should) then you should give a point to grab field improv, but builds & point distribution will vary
stockpile > field improv
if you have the points then do get both, but if you have to choose, then pick stockpile
unless you're running smoke for some reason
i rarely end up having points left for field improv
how much bonus melee dmg does the dueling sword need from vet tree
That juicy, juicy melee damage to crit node pathing.
That 10% melee damage opens like 3 important breakpoints for my DS4 and in current build i can't take it arghhhhh
cuz IMA A GRENADEEERR
really boss i thought field improv provides allot more team benefits than demo team
on MS/Aurics Demo Team value is tremendous
at that point it's better to drop twinned blast
tho i wouldn't do it
Its luck dependant, but there been times i generated 0 > 6 grenades
from a single (elite mutants/dogs/etc all at once) encounter
and if we look at value from entire match its great
nah, only 2 builds outside of veteran may care about demo team's grenade pickup function and while it's nice, it's just not much more than a luxury pick
twin blast sucks why would you even take it to begin with
like once apon a time it was good
it's not that bad, it's okay, but if you gonna throw like 30-40+ grenades per match, could pick it up
my man are you seeing your own texts ever since the changes to twin blast which by the by wasn't needed
it hasn't being good
have you seen zealot tree
it's filled with useless garbage
it's not that bad on the side of veteran
yes i know it is

dont try and change the subject
Well, Fatshark balance once a year at best
what can you do there
and the balance patch is over
see you october 2025
twin blast before it got changed was good now it goes from either left to right instead of it being slightly curved
there's also garbage stuff like this one
that no one uses
if this was universal for both melee + ranged damage
it would be amazing
Rending Strikers value would also increase with the buff on that one
i have like 2 builds out of 15 that use field improv, and nuke ogryns on my team just refuse to spam some nukes with it 😦
even when i tell them to
I think its fine that rending and brittle aren't too easy to stack up on
but tbh I'm just a hater of armor classes largely losing their meaning
Ogryb with pickaxe
Two shoting everything except bosses
pickaxe capable of oneshotting tho
If this was for Ranged it would be as unhinged as onslaught which is already too much

that hurts a lot tbh
universal 30% weakspot (ranged/melee)

it's a neat perk, or is the 30% a lie, because how damage is calculated?
It's low/meh when it's 10%, but 30% is noticeable
i mean i'm mucking around with randoms builds
Is the Frag-Grenade worth it?
For Horde? but they usually get taken down quickly anyway.
A purpose could be to boost Zealot and Ogryn Talents?
Frag Grenade is for mixed hordes or rager hordes or shotgunner hordes if you are far away and can't respond quickly enough
It’s very good
You can either use it for utility to clear out space
Or you can use it for damage when you drop two of them
its also a good CC tool
It’s just an extremely useful generalist grenade
aye, it may not really damage a crusher train but it will stagger them all. threw two and clean up.
Rager hordes are usually taken out quickly with Devils Claw, but for those Ranged Hordes, yeah, is the damage of one enough on Haz 4+?
you need two nades to kill ragers from 100 to 0 without any assistance
You want two for elite swarms
Yeah one nade is for mild damage and good cc
Two nades is for serious damage, except against bosses and carapace
Hmm, will pick it for my ranged support Build, sounds good.
The damage perks affect the bleed damage?
Not sure but I know the bleed really benefits from having the uncanny blessing in your melee
And explosion radius is increased by lethal proximity
Which is a bolt pistol blessing
🤔 weapon perks affect grenade?
Some blessings do idk if perks affect nades
Is supression immunity worth the point? What doesit even do?
Jo, Blessings
Dident knew the weapon Blessins affect grenades.
Wonder if they also affect Rock, or other Blitz from other classes?
It is worth it, especially when they have Gunner
If one has to choose and only has 1 perk free, might be worth over the 30% weakspot
Doesn't make weapon silent 
🥔
eh fuck this build right here guess i've gone back to meh original build tried and tested she is
I'd say it's useful if you are somewhat a new player
but otherwise you can save a point and play around without it
There's some niche situations it's really useful (direct heavy fire engagements vs 5 reapers + 10++ gunners), but we are so short on points
too much good stuff
Thank you guys for the info!
plenty of weapons are innately immune to suppression
i only use that immunity node when im running infantry autoguns
honestly u wont even need it if u play around cover wisely
I played without it most of my Maelstorm runs and now plaing with it. Cant see the difference really. Just slide into gunners and reapers and hold left click with my Recon Las gun
yeah exactly
it only comes into play when you're fighting things at a distance
most of the time the fight is kinda up in your face
+explosion radius effects seem to be “always active” and affect all explosions
For example, crusher & power maul’s special-activated attacks cause small explosions
That explosion is boosted by +explosion radius effects
For ogryn, that’s a talent
For zealot, lethal proximity can do it
when I tested this for a vet shredder nade build it only had the radius when I pulled the bistol back out in the psykanium. consistently had the same radius with and without it in my loadout until I actually held it, thrown in the same spot without moving
this was over a week ago when that info started to really spread about the blessing in particular
That's good to know!
Is it intentional or just, a lucky slip in the prayer chants?
It’s intentional
So far 
With fatshark I’d suggest you assume every “you sure this is a bug” thing to be more of a feature
its intentional until fatshark patches it out, even if they say its intentional before doing so
my poor zealots ranged rending capability 
getting hit by a trapper net through a wall.....
the worst is when they pixel peek you through slits in the walls that you couldnt even shoot through
If it’s half ur body height, pretty sure that’s intended
If it’s a whole solid wall, I’ll just say 
it was a solid wall
Getting shot through a solid wall by a sniper..
Or those metal fences where they can shoot through, but the player can't, because it only lets projectiles from the other side through..
Also Trappers sometimes when in a certain time of their animation, they are immune to stagger and interruption.
Surviving even braced double barrel on short range
you gotta push them instead of aiming for a headshot. you'd think hitting them in the fucking head with a shovel would be a more reliable way to stop them than a shove bit it aint
that happening with the 30% impact on weakspot hit talent for zealot equipped is so stupid
until they go and say "Zealot chastise armor downgrade was a bug for 1 year, sorry, fixed now"

mistakenly gives the rending back to shroudfield instead and does nothing for a year
i saw net fly under through stair on ascension in assassination torrent
@tall torrent i cant decide what melee weapon would pair well with my recon las gun
if you bring onslaught, you are free to use literally everything
for better horde control you can go rashad, mk1 shovel or chainsword 4/13 (i prefer 13)
to many choices 
Can't push them with a shotgun on 2-3 meter distance
But I expect he atleast flinches and is not able to fire himself, but he is...
Combat axes are a safe bet.
or power swords
Oh yea first hit on power swords still not fixed after weeks 
this is the shovel i've gone with
Wait, we got red items now?
No
I like taking executioner's stance with an IAG since it's one of the few weapons that benefits a lot from every single aspect of E Stance, on every target type
Damage bonuses are more likely to give a TTK boost on a rapid fire, relatively low damage per bullet weapon; supp immunity; sway, recoil and spread reduction; it's naturally an anti-trash-shooter weapon as much as an anti-special and anti-elite
Then means you don't have to take the suppression immunity node, since E Stance is doing it for you and you have almost full uptime
Yes you have being

🫵 You. Yes you that disconnected from a game so that when I loaded my quickplay it loaded me into the game over cutscene. To hell with you coward! Lose like a man
I took your 75 plasteel and diamantene.
trying out a ex stance infantry las build, know other guns would prob be better but liking it anyway tho find myself struggling again the regular horde enmies in melee which melee wep do you think? Wanted something that could deal with carapace since las doesnt but also needs to do well with hordes. Been trying chain axe and love it for carapace with the bleed rev but it feels weak as hell agains hordes taking 2-3 hits to kill a basic mook
what would be a good weapon to pair with a squishy af executioner's stance enjoyer? using lasguns mostly rn
shovel
yes
the real chad build that doesn't feel the need to hide behind a constant massive toughness boost
(or to go invis)
for us men of culture
shovel was actually my first thought but haven't had too much success with it
haven't used it much though so that might be it
which shovel? How are you using it?
shovel is good at bashing around hordes but doesnt do much to carapace which i feel you need if using las gun
then keep doing that but switch to a mk VII
special attack against carapace
if you like the mk I because of its superior A E S T H E T I C S, then abuse the poke, it's super useful
hmm
krak grenades
I use mk I shovel and krak grenades
tbh i'd rather run away then shoot the carapace
Power Sword was my go-to before I became shovelpilled
then keep the mk I and use krak nade
Don't underestimate the light attack spam on the Mk. 1 shovel by the way
especially not with Uncanny Strike at your disposal
mk I shovel can definitelly kill a crusher
it's too inneficient for that
and it's safe
Someone here told me a long time ago- the Mk. 1 shovel with Uncanny Strike solves a lot of problems
i think i prefer frag
The heavies are super super useful, don't discount them either
but they're for making space or bashing around bigger targets
Pure killing, you should be clicking heads as fast as possible
frag is for hordes, if you're using them right then you don't need a melee for hordes
yes that's the point
...That feels insane
then nuke the hordes with your nades
One every thirty seconds? For all hordes?
why not?
no points for that
you do have Iron Will, right?
all talent points used for shoot
if you're there, might as well grab demo team
you want to kill elites, demo team will keep you stocked up on nades as long as you do just that
well i have that, only because it leads to rending strikes and bring it down lol
demo stockpile isnt in same area as iron will
could replace iron will with demolition team but i'm not sure if that's a good trade
no, don't replace iron will
demo is in same area as voice of emperor where you arent going if your exe stance, its a few points out of the way
maybe switch rending strikes to demo team
not that demo...
well
oh the 5% proc one nvmind
now you see why i need that weapon to take care of hordes lol
rending strikes is for flak and carapace, you probably don't need help with flak because the enemies using it aren't that tanky and you must have plenty of extra damage
rending strikes won't save your lasgun against carapace
so might as well drop it and get demo team
then you have a nade for hordes, gun for elites and melee for carapace
i would have to break character for that though...
if you want me to play optimally i may as well drop exec stance altogether and just shout
which would be more effective sure
I don't want you to play optimally, the game is easy enough that you don't need to worry about the meta
I'm giving you a sugestion to solve the problem you asked sugestions for
well i appreciate it
i just can't help wanting all the damage talents
no idea tbh i just shoot and watch the hit markers
but... i just want to click on carapace head
hear them say stuff like YOURE HITTING ARMOR
moments before it turns into a bloody mist
mk1 shovel push attack does decent damage to crushers if you have uncanny stacks up
its very useful for all specials and elites
Duel sword?!
i've never used it once, even on the psyker
Do it
Power Sword 6
Activate Push Attack the head then light
that block break 'push'
assplants every single thing around you even crushers
when I need stamina, I've actually tried to find something to hit me and trigger it so the room shuts up for a couple seconds
I will say, it's actually kind of hard to find something to break your stamina when you want it to happen
never thought I'd say that
it's a honeymoon phase
But why share it in veteran chat 
Lmaooooo
sorry boyos appreciate the politeness
No worries, I do the same pretty regularly
no, you got it right
this place could use more ogryns

To show puny soldiers how real ones fight, for the Emperor
as long as the ogryns don't take MY ammo tins >:(
All ammo tins belong to gunluggers
APPY TA ELP SAH
blocked for wrong think
Based
crit build c:
for that, the weapon needs to be hold active?
or is it like #veteran-class message
🤔 wonder if this would also be "always active"?
or that
nope, lethal proximity is always active
we tested this last week 
so, even if for example, I yeet the grenade, switch to melee, the lethal proximity from Bolt Pistol, would still have an effect on the explosion?!
yep! don't need to worry about weapon swapping or anything
thanks
makes it cracked with Agile Engagement
as you can swap without fear
Ye lethal prox is global, who knows why
and fatshark better keep it that way
no problem!
and also, no the other blessings are not global
id fix it by just stating it's global tbh
yeah much prefer that over them screwing over my grenadier builds
Im horrible with testing this, first is with out Execution Bolt Pistol, second is with Execution Bolt Pistol (yes, tested it with psyker atm, not veteran)
could this not affect like lethal proximity does?
nope
Oh huh. Maybe? I haven't personally see any other blessings that are global.
with the exection, Pox walker (basic meatgrinder) die at around 35% peril and 65% without Executioner
i assume there's something else going on
but ima test in a few minutes
cause that's not a 20% difference
have a smite video
https://youtu.be/OT1xC1bzDJs?si=CcVfLzpAaDeyMXrK
since regardless i recommend not building into smite damage
But I do
So lemme know how the tests go
nope i get the same result with or without execution
within a very slight margin of error since smite damage ticks are something of a fucking mystery box tbh
but a scab shooter with naked unboosted smite does not die in a single 0-100% left click
lives with 80~hp left
and basically no change with execution
thanks for the testing!
yea i get nothing
aw shit
forgot to unequip the bolt pistol
guess this is what im using this round
on testing blessings (Combat Axe Blessing), its prob. my unskilled testing, but does this affect ranged weapons?
always funny when the game loads the wrong loadout
so you just go "I wish I knew what I was using"
Are you hinting that I could temporarily give my Helbore 120 extra finesse

if they havent fixed it yet
good luck building the stacks and then drawing and charging and firing your helbore tho
Uncanny Strike global proc (for ranged)
cmon fatshart
do it
Yes
The talent with 5% chance for a grenade back on a
Special or elite kill
Free fucking grenades for doing my job? Sign me tf up
Take both
so why is charge rate not dump on plasma even though ppl dont use charge?
I will let the native English speakers explain that one since I am at work and there isn’t enough caffeine in the world to help me remember the terminology
Something something impacts fire rate
I really don't care I just have it as the dump
I still fucking mulch elites and specials like it's breakfast with exe stance
ah ok
which keystone modifier for marksman's focus is good? Say for plasma or helbore lasgun?
took long range assassin for now since i dont know better
monkeys paw wish: it does get implemented but only on shredder autopistol
...which could be amazing potentially
that would be epic trolling
im not sure
when it was still old chastise zealot with armor downgrade
even with that it takes an eternity for autopistol to kill a crusher
every bullet is assail
i love it
charge rate affects m1 fire speed still
Camo where you stand still to build stacks
you cant fool me youre a dog
A dog?
woof
Hi furry chat
Hell no
I do not want to be associated with that group
Some of them are nice and most are really strange
Why is the plasma gun so much more fun and good than every other weapon
i mostly find it dull
I dont want to use the bum ass braced auto gun i can clear hoards with a shovel or frags i want to delete every special on the map
I use an infantry lasgun and one shot all the specialists without overheating and exploding
I like plasma as a gun where you pull it out to blast away one or two guys then go back to your melee
Give it time
You'll worn out as well
Until then
Have fun
plasma 🥱
db ws
Plasma, focus target
Helbore, depends, either focus target or marksman’s focus
Basically
guud game
how do you feel about infantry lasguns?
they are fine
Infantry Lasguns are probably okay, but Recon and Helbore are so much better/more specialized
just a quick question why don't you recommend blaze away with gets hot for plasma?
I like them
you can kit them to do pretty crazy headshot damage
infantry lasguns are the vanilla ice cream of our ranged options
tried and true :3
It's nobody's favorite but it's always tasty
because optimized cooling is minimum 3 extra shots with blaze away for 3 more shots at 140% strength, it scales better for mabdumping/monster dps set-up
gets hot is mainly for crit 1 bodyshot breakpoints on gunners & flamers, it's a "better consistency" pick because nobody hits headshot 100% of the time
Personally I like following up a 1.2k damage headshot with another 1.2k damage headshot
of course with fullauto mod because I hate clicking 4000 times in a row
what is your fav lasgun?
I like the green lasgun I forget the name
infantry lasgun is so nice whe you can land all those juicy crunch headshots
mgia or something
i like the one thats in the middle
The middle one
not the slow asf one
I'm partially colorblind I don't fucking know which one is green >: (
not the peashooter
the fast one I like it because they still do good headshot damage and kill shooters
i havent tried it with the new it em system (only had a midtier roll)
I don't actually fire it full auto like that
I just use it as a really high capacity lasgun
fair enough
thanks for explaining
I think it's mgIa
The mgx or whatever 3 hit bodyshots ragers or one shots to the head I like it
also I think vraks VII is pretty fun
whats the best blessings for the knife to deal a sht ton of dmg
precog, riposte
Agripinaa 9 HHA being untouched name wise minus the weapon category
Truly living in a timeline
those two are really situational
highest dmg potential is precog + mercy killer
but most people aren't insane enough to run that
im leaaaaving, on a timeliiiine
and yea you are dodging basically all the time in active combat
so its not that bad a condition
riposte isn't
precog 2s uptime is questionable yes
riposte is 20% M.crit chance for 6s, it's basically always up whenever u need it
i personally do riposte + flesh tearer a lot or precog + ft if im already critmaxxing
once you get your practice down a crit means the target will be dead from bleed and you just leave em
what about uncanny strike
safe, strong, boring
pretty much
cuz i see people stomping on carapace enemies and bosses with the knife
uncanny is not the best for boss but it's very safe for carapace
what about executor
you gotta be learned to do it though
One of the most disgusting combos you can do with it that’s Vet exclusive
Is Uncanny + Mercy with Serrated Blade talent
Cause bleed gets effected by Uncanny
It locks you into a very specific build though
i agree its disgusting but perhaps not in the way you meant
mercy killer is basically precog but like
easier to actuvate
right?
precog + mercy killer when..
The moment they start bleeding it’s up
not just easier, it's much more consistent
yea that’s what i meant
it's very high dmg when u have the rythm down
I like running Uncanny + Mercy Serrated
and no cause mercy is weakspot only
Cause I DONT
but the point tax is immaculate
mmm 120% finesse damage
yummers
want to hit only body shots
oh that’s true
I aim head level only
somehow still lower than precog + duellist
but if ur using knife

u should be hitting heads
no? precog duelist is 110%
precog is 60, duelist is 50
Uncanny + Lacerate is the main reason why
It’s stupid that it’s actually effective
And hate that
duellist is 50% weakspot (interacts with crit weakspot) and 50% crit bonus (interacts with crit weakspot)
so it ends up being 160% on a crit weakspot hit
maffs
but vet still reaches 140, right? with desperado
desperado is 10%
crit weakspot is 20%
if u go precision strikes (obv) + desperado (obv) + precog + mercy it's higher
but that build is gonna have like
INSANE point tax

what’s precision strikes again
i do not rember
30% Weakspot dmg
30% weakspot finesse, all weapons
I feel like it’s mandatory
what 40%
desperado is +25% melee total finesse
so it's 30% for ranged, 55% for melee
oh i thought it was 10% lol
lmfao
that’s worse
that’s just duelist but
no dodge requirement
That’s lower than duellist overall, just no conditions
and you take those talents on most every build anyway
Which fits veteran better
Not necessarily
Depends on gun
Also take into consideration veteran suffers from low stam regen
Always take that into consideration
Veteran’s base stats are so much worse than zealot’s base stats lol
it used to be 1.25s delay
mfer smoked a pack a day
soloing a chaos spawn as a vet was a fucken ordeal lmao
it wasn’t for me
but like
yall stay safe though
pre-trees?
(i’ve never really tried)
ah
When base stats actually mattered
lmfao
yeah
i slowly have been starting to agree with dorn
patch 13 and its consequences have been a disaster for darktide
Nah
definitely not
Veteran getting mollywhopped by CS
I think it’s mostly just zealot tree that needs changes, and ogryn needs >3 good weapons
i think patch 13 was great but
the balancing was thrown wayyy off
and they still haven’t fixed auric spawns
(because it’s intentional)
:(
I have a feeling it’s either intended or it’s a back burner fix cause they’re trying to rework Zealot then Ogryn before worrying about that
they just need to turn the tension modifier up more to bandaid fix it, if it’s a deeper issue
Is that the latest patch?
fix what spawns
Patch 13
patch 13 was when talent trees were added
auric spawns, no more timed hordes, less elite packs,
I disagree 
I mean sure the balance was way off
overall less enemies compared to before
It's playable
Even if like
Psyker rn is cray
The difficulty of balancing 4 classes with many multiple permutations of talents and TRYING to balance all of this in consideration with weapon balancing
me personally
i could do it
but yknow

Built different
there's really only a few things in the game right now where it's literally the numbers that are fucked up
plasma gun, kickback comes to mind
but for most everything else it's code or implementation
make the plasma explode on hit UwU
psyker left click spam isnt something you 'fix' by just making it do 0 damage
and smyker right click spam means introducing a new mechanic that hard-stops overuse
Smite and staff m1 needs like, gradually increasing peril generation
staff m1 just needs an internal cooldown lol
and remove safety from uncharged
and add more cleave to charged shots
More cleave to charged shots wouldn’t do Jack shit
It’s already 100 cleave
you could half the intended fire rate and break macros, and then just double its damage to compensate and that'd be fine
oh i meant like, post reducing cleave by 90%
Charged shots need better ammo efficiency
Nah I think even -90%, at 10 cleave it’s still very high for a ranged weapon
Left click would be 5 which is cleaving through 1 gunner/dreg rager or 2 shotgunners/flamers/trappers
and heat needs to matter
And cannot cleave through scab rager/mauler at all
It’s just removing auto-vent from left click
I think charged shots need better ammo efficiency and maybe better damage
Because it’s like the “thrust” equivalent for plasma guns
bow weapon when
Funny how every “thrust” equivalent in this game is ass
i know im the odd one out for wanting them to return to health damage when venting
Nah that’s cringe
but really all i want is for it to feel like im making an impactful choice if i go high heat
no
I think u could do either
cause right now it doesnt matter at all
Removing auto-vent completely
Or, making auto-vent damage health
But regular venting should not damage health
make it RNG if it blows up or not
accurate to table top
Cringe
funny
when u vent it starts reciting greentext posts in a microsoft sam voice
every shot over 50% heat, you hear a d6 roll, and if it comes up 1...
how hard am I coping with this build? https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9c4013c8-2411-40b7-b11b-d7dca0c52b62/healing-vet?utm_medium=website&utm_source=gameslantern&utm_campaign=share_button
🤔
@tall torrent
Reciprocity doesn’t matter much for either of those 2 weapons
i thought all autguns like crit
No
Vraks V and Columnus VIII infantry autoguns
All 3 vigilant autoguns
That’s about it
This is a certified “I don’t have an answer for crusher waves” build
technically all of them
Yea
Not on veteran
get melee kills and you get toughness
i can replace the shovel with a PS or DS
confident strike for chainswords when
Confident strike (ogryn)
Momentum (zealot & ogryn)
Slow & steady (ogryn)
i guess I dont need frags, but frags are decent at generating toughness
ig DS it is
gimmie
get yer OWN godDAMN COOKIES
😭
-horrific animal noises, climbs up wall into corner-
new place opened up a block away from me
wanted to try em out
Karking Slow and Steady proccing on barrels
i want a bolt pistol skin but the current one is boring
i miss when the candle obstructed the front sight
now that shit was dedication to the bit
that shouts zealot
SCREAMS, actually
maybe i should copy yarrick
but i would preffer the zealot screamer
cause i use it mostly on zealot
i gonna lv now double barrel shotgun
good i have this one
if u use it
with the keep their heads down
basicly u cc entire hordes with supression?
btw im using the serrated steel with the mercy killer and other blessing
the shts do dmg
but ive seen a zealot oneshot stuff
yea it has a lot of suppression
its just a different style, where you close in before dumping into bodies
feels weird
do you think they gonna buff the shredder pistol
probably, eventually
i think to burn some mats for it and the dbshotty
are u supposed to aim with braced it takes a bit
only one of them you wanna brace
i dont know these new fucken names man 😦
for the guns
would it be weird to sacrafice mats for boosting weapons
have 2m ordocks and 130k plasteel
Nah
Good way to skip annoying grinds
i gonna do only two they feel not nice to use for me
db shotty and shredder pistol
combat shotty i used the slug one
was like a sniper with it
which one hte one that shoots fast?
two have the same rof, but one of those two shoots faster when braced
Graia braces ahoota faster when braces
Agri braced better anyway
Probably because of this video
I really hope some of this helps, my best advice is just practice practice practice!
00:00- How to upgrade to Heresy from Malice
04:45- What you need to push into Damnation
😔
do you know when the magistratum bp gonna come back
wait so its graia or agri
Graia
It also increases accuracy after a certain point of firing
It tightens spread after reading max spread expansion
But it’s still not that accurate for long range
you forgot that graia has more ammo ☝️ 🤓
Longshot viable on Braced??!?!!? 😔 😔 😔 😔 8899
so graia is the best overall lol
Nah, agripinaa VIII
agripina misses everythng
and brace takes too long
You don’t take brace autoguns for long range in the first place
Agripinaa is quite accurate if you don’t hold m1
i tap with it then?
Small bursts
is it even worth bracing with it?
Also exe stance Agripinaa VIII is a real thing and it works
What other ranged weapons generate toughness? 🤔
generally no
mamas la chancla
Anything with gloryhunter/inspiring barrage
The only brauto that really gets any benefit from bracing it is the graia brauto
I use bracing when I want to do long range shots
as the first shot or so is surprisingly accurate
What about lazpistol?
There are times you can brace it, yeah, but generally you don't want to brace the agripinaa
so agripina
brautos are the weapon family where you just ask yourself why tf does this even exists along with headhunters
is close range spread full
Laspistol has 3.5 good blessings and reassuringly accurate is not really one of them
the only brauto with stopping power as a main stat, instead of a hidden stat
V.auto is fine tbh
I wish their maniac damage was better
no, its a close range wep
For toughness generating is Graia or Agri better? 🤔
its literally designed to melee range +1
im saying because see veteran said it can actually do goodd medium range
For toughness generation u take a gloryhunter plasma gun
with bursts
At long range you don’t even need to brace. Just do single shots
anything beyond 8m is a diceroll regardless of how good your aim is
Too easy 😔
Agri is very accurate with single shots even at very long range
and at that point you can take 5 different weps which does the same just 10x better
like again , you can use it, you can do even maelstroms with it , its just the design phylosoophy behind it
you make a close range barrage weapon with an ammo economy of a long range artillery
Well taking braced guns is mostly for fun
It’s still important to be aware that your gun can indeed reliably snipe that specialist at 40 meters
ye but its not even fun thats the problem
it doesnt even have any interesting blessing or synergy with it
Fun is subjective
the brace mode is like the most generic "shoot more" thing
I like spraying brrrrrt into a group of heretics
It’s good. A bit overshadowed by vraks v though
Vraks 5 is shiiiit
What's a great Bolt build?
Exe stance mag dump build
ammo aura -> shout -> exec is the fun one
shout -> tag is the better one
I wanted to see a tree if possible
Heavy sword + Boltgun
U need rending on the bolt gun?
It helps
No, it’s for heavy sword
a personal suggestion would be to drop the twin frags node for the "allies can see highlighted enemies" upgrade for exec stance
Wait is that the suppression node that you’re taking?
heavy sword and carapce
If u run smth like power sword, go marksman instead
Also why suppression?
Fuck my allies 
Nah, that node only lasts 5s regardless of exe stance uptime
I don’t want them stealing the kills I need for exec
Yea
Why tho 🤔
yeah but even 5 sec to see around helps
