melk solos the entire mourning star, morrow and rannick are frauds
Can't wait to fight Awakened Melk at havok lvl 40
TRAITOR
He fell to Nurgle because he never wanted to have to change his schedule again
lol, lmao
Very unhot take: If you release a buggy, unfinished mess and take a super long time to get it into acceptable status
That is not a labor of love
They absolutely do not deserve it
I'll vote them for the "cement shoes" category with the way they drag their feet doing anything
I voted for them because I like this game and wouldn't mind them winning
I'm voting b/c that poor ogryn and his bee allergies
lmao
He needs his medicae
I ain’t voting for TF2 🚬
I give vote, just whatever they want
we only have Jannies in tf2
vermintide has gotten more love this year than darktide
give it to vermintide
I say we double, no, triple janny's salary!
tf2 fans are just straightup delusional thinking valve will continue to do more than just seasonal cases
FYI, I am literally a named character.

Okay, thamk
Damn... i kinda do want to use the Helbore lol
Tac-Axe / Helbore.
Just for fun, nothing serious of course.
Check this badboy out.
Weapon Specialist = 100% crit chance. Bitterness = more fire damage.
A damn good one at that too
An exceedingly poor one
And yet i bet you i'll still score top in my team lol
You are using half the duration of your stacks to draw your gun
Nuh uh. From half to 3/4!
Besides, i only need a goot shot before closing into melee.

Why?
I don't know it, but it's high up there.
You can just fucking use its charged strike
Weapon specialist is incompatible with Helbore because of how it’s coded
I'll outdo the code then.
Weapon specialist is not “gain stack on ranged kill”
Huh?
It’s “gain stack on kill while ranged weapon is in hand”
You don’t get to use both parts of WS from Helbore’s attacks
Melee bayonet kills with Helbore still only give u melee specialist (activated from swapping to melee)
It’s genuinely as bad compatibility as it gets
hey yall does anyone know of any good builds for auric maelstroms?
This is also not worded very well
One Motion is x0.8 wield time
It’s only 0.3~0.25s faster for Helbore & Boltgun
For other weapons it’s negligible
I retract my earlier statement
once I understood how to vent heat from the plasma gun
it became my new favorite
Unfortunate
What are you guys talking about, this gun rocks!
To be fair, maybe i could do the same without talents though.... but still!
But you guys are right
This build is all wrong.
More man than machine!
Here, updated my weapon. This way i can hit harder against all of my foes.
And still kickin heretics in the face for the Emperor! CADIA KARKIN STANDS!
Look at that! Add in Agile Engagement, plus Surprise attack. We're talking a potential 80% more damage against Unyielding.
Damn, i'm so smort. Making up my own Meta on the spot! No need to thank me gentlemen.
GASP
WHAT PERFECT TIMING TO TEST MY GUN OUT~!
What's the recommended dump stat on the revolver?
As a Helbore user I'd agree with everyone else, it takes way too long for Weapon Specialist to actually be useful.
It might not be a bad gun by itself, but it would be a bad choice for that build.
All i need is a good shot
It's fun regardless. Not sure if i'm making it work. I know I can do more with a Revolver or Plasma but still cool
When do you get the "Path of Trust" chapter 2 completed?
Probably around level five?
There are 30 levels and 6 chapters, so that's my guess.
Why does the sister prine or whats her name is hate the loose cannon so much
loll
I keep getting hated on
lore accurate ecclesiarchy member
Yea, first time using the Helbore on 3veg.
Not to my liking. It's not even the long draw time. It's how long it takes to charge up your shots.
Buuuut that might be the inexperience talking. Going for a round 2
Question
What happens when I blow up my plasma gun mid mission and get revived ?
do I lose it ?
u can't blow up if ur using it right
no
I mean like
if u use it right (exclusively hipfire, never charge), u cannot blow up
Realy ? Thats the "Right" way to use it ?
I do use the charge to blow up big things
yea
unfortunately charge shots are entirely worthless rn
much lower dps
risk blowing up
only 3 shots before overheat (hipfire has 8)
does less damage than hipfire x3 even though it uses the same amount of ammo
cannot sprint while holding charge
has 2x cleave but doesn't penetrate carapace so u don't meaningfully kill high mass enemies any better
the lower dmg compared to hipfire x3 is just low enough to require extra perks for 1 shot crusher breakpoint which takes away your crucial perk slots for actually important 1 hit kill breakpoints
u don't even deal much aoe dmg if u blow up
plasma is strong because it's an extremely reliable 1-hit-kill gun vs most specialists & ranged elites, and has very high cleave to thin out mixed hordes
it's not strong because u get to kaboom urself
Honestly, they do need to buff the charge up shots.
plasma needs a rework
I'd like to see
hipfire cleave 50 nerf to 5 (can cleave through 1 gunner/rager)
hipfire dmg vs carapace & unyielding massively reduced
brace fire cleave 100 nerf to 15
brace fire can cleave through carapace armor (can hit 2 crushers)
brace fire dmg vs carapace & unyielding massively increased
Not against Unyielding!
I think hipfire dmg vs most enemies are in a fine spot because it does take very specific talents to get 1 hit breakpoints
nah, left click should be primarily vs softer targets
make charged shots the go-to for larger enemies
plasma is an "anti-armor" gun, make its charged shot actually good
give it like
minimum 3000 carapace dmg on charged bodyshot
maybe 6k or higher vs unyielding
u get 3 charged shots before overheat, they gotta do something meaningful
And maybe 8k against Infested!
what's infested for
For killing Pox Walkers. Duh
Who knows, maybe potential cough cough Daemons in the future? They have to be infested!
But honestly, just give me a plasma pistol.
we might unironically get longlas before that lol
longlas been sitting in game files for over 2 years
How about scopes for weapons that don't have them?
Reddit thinks bad ironsights are a deliberate balancing factor
Reddit? Thinks?
Aren't they known for being dumb?
Scoped Helbore 
Lol imagine!
So no new wepaons for Vet?
Next year
Here's to hoping it's a hotshot
Yes please
They come with drum type batteries now
So there's no excuse why we can't have it now
WOAH That's new to me~!!
They should work like a Flamer does. Can only shoot when braced.
Wouldn't make sense
Wait, hold up.
Getting confused with the other heavy gun.
The one that shoots a lot more. Hellgun?
OOOH
Nvm
Talking about the Hotshot Volley Gun~!
Now that one i can imagine bracing and letting it rip!
Storm boltors when
Or Melta guns...
Regardless
I want the full arsenal of a Tempestus Scion~! I mean, i'm always doing Auric missions, i'm practically just as good as one!
They have their own unique ones!? I always thought they used the same weapons as the Scions.
Is getting kraks and then survivalists ok to do or not worth spending the extra points for
Man, i always loved Kasrkins since DoW 1
I got dow1 recently I've been trying to convince my friends to get it so we can play the apocalypse mod
That's the joke
Kasrkin sniper is absolute drip
Hah, that makes it 10x funnier~!
Wait, that's Kill Team! lol
I know that cloaked Kasrkin anywhere
Have you tried the weapon customization mod
Yep
the longlas will prob be their "hotshot lasgun"
Can guardsmen use las fusils
I would like the Aquilon carbine for the hotshot. That one got a drum mag.
Or is that a marine only weapon
Las fusils are basically tank las cannons but single fire
What does the top left icon look like to u
Well then
Where do you see these
And wait does that confirm melta?
Datamined from 2 years ago
Oh
Yeah chain axe too
We’re getting force greatsword (bottom left) and relic blade (bottom middle)
Looks Kantrael to me
That icon looks kind of bullpup? Like there’s no battery pack in front of the pistol grip
idk
Also does long shot apply to each individual enemy and not like kill zone where it just doesn't work at all if an enemy is in proximity
longshot is not good
That makes sense
it doesn't do anything from 0~12.5m
Kill zone is also just straight up useless too?
nah
killzone is weird
because it is a lot of dmg that actually contributes to breakpoints
it's just that relying it for breakpoints is bad
because the moment anything steps into melee range u lose ur breakpoints
tag exists which destroys that
but it's usually the better pick if ur going exe stance
Ic ok
opening salvo (10% crit chance) only matters for a few weapons where u absolutely want to max crit chance without going into deadshot
revolver/shotgun
nah
Recon las?
no
Revolver has surgical
opening salvo is mostly for stuff like
infantry autogun V
recon lasgun VIc & XII
Helbore (all 3)
it doesn't matter much for revolver & shotgun
which reconds?
ah, I need the old tags
Infantry autogun seems kinda weird though no? Cause 20% of an autoguns mag is like 10 bullets
VIc = II (old)
XII = VId (old)
XIV = VIIa (old)
ty
crit string & high finesse
I love that the infantry autogun still works
What's crit string
for certain weapons if u crit once while firing, the next few shots will be guaranteed crits
Oh what
I honestly forgot recon lasgun has that
Mathspeak
higher crit string = better scaling with crit chance
I would much prefer
the thing still kills well
it's just crushers that it can't kill
nah it doesn't need to kill crushers
Weapon swap boi?
Is it a bulwark
I hope they change its inverse falloff profile and buff its flak ADM tho
no, I spawned a crusher with creature spawner
Damnit
the fact that u cannot tell that this is a crusher speaks volumes about how obstructive it is
because in a live game u could hit a flamer tank and just not know
because the muzzle flash blinds u completely
how much damage did the shot do?
u just gotta accept that not every weapon is meant to kill crushers
I only knew due to being in that training room for so long
I REFUSE!
I just hate that when crushers show up, my day gets ruined because apparently nobody but me can shoot crushers
if u rly wanted to pop crushers with lasgun
no that's cheating
A helbor is cheating
have u tried melee
oh well
I just want my pure guardsman build to work
Do I have to post builds on the thread or can I post builds here
And ask for advice
here
get ur hands on some actual anti-armor melee weapons then
Turns out 3 kraks is not enough sometimes
I meant melee weapons
Ok I don't have the minimized talent tree mod so you're gonna have to bear with me
shovel is actually ok vs crushers
Surprisingly yes it is
Are you using the adjustable shovels or
which shovel?
IIRC like Oggy, vet only has 2 adjustable shovels
Mkvii
third is the vanilla
mk1 and mk7 are the good ones
blue one.
mk3 is not worth
There's always the brain damaged fetal alcohol lasgun build
Imo mk1 is strong with decimator and mkvii is better with thrust but that's just personal preference
Onslaught + Recon Las + Shock Trooper + Maxed Crits
Limbsplitters also fine but I don't like waiting
limbsplitter is horrible
it's a trap yes
Ahh the simple recon lasgun build to kill everything
Even after all the changes it still works
It's a pretty trashy build that pushes you into a lot of bad habits, but it works
fasgun go fast
I mean if you're good at timing it's basically the same as thrust no? You just don't have to charge it up all the way
I use it sometimes just to destress
Yes but you can't use it every swing
no because hitting things while it's on CD resets its CD back to full
there's a lot of weapons where that's extremely different

Oh so you'll just never have it active
so if ur hitting things u don't get to use limbsplitter
LOL
this is the only downside to using mk IIb
cope with weapon swap
Blessings I mean
haha
How's this for a recon lasgun build
I wish its dmg was a little better tho
I need a reminder for what the 2b is
old MG IV
Well, first off, those red talents are kinda traps
fastest firing one
I was thinking of maybe getting focus as a keystone but I think maybe no keystone is better
I am going to kill fatshark for changing these names
yeah
Honestly we should just start calling them by their colors instead of names
would be nice
Focus works perfectly
Why do they change the names of guns anyways?
nah, they do add a lot of dmg
Focus is best for sprayguns
I thought Guardsmen were you know... NOT SUPPOSED TO WORK
For like, 5-10s during your activation
They die all the time
EXCUSE YOU
Not unlike us, we're Veterans. ❤️
10s for CQKZ and marksman is quite a lot
IIRC they don't refresh when you recheck
Sometimes you want to go back to the good ol days
considering veteran has tac awareness
with the exe stance
Nah, i'm more the type who's like "Nah i'd win" against a Chaos Space Marine
no way, that's terrible
no, but 10s uptime with tac awareness for refresh still is pretty high uptime
then again I usually use weapons that 1shs anyways
red nodes are not traps lol
red nodes are honestly some corner stones that get you out of situations
Wait what was that one story where a grey knight died to a bunch of feudal era knights
or you really want those men dead
How did they even manage to do that
nah
it depends
I think after u get ur breakpoints and u have some points to spare
red nodes are very much worth it
yeah, That's how I treat them
it also depends on if ur weapons benefit from them noticeably
Define Red Notes?
the perks in red
For the emperor
Close quarters killzone
Marksman
temporarily +dmg on ability activation
Ability Modifiers?
Hunter's Resolve all the time
You can actually revive someone fast enough before your toughness breaks while standing on fire.
most of the time CQKZ/FTE does something for u
take FTE if u go exe stance
if u take VoC it's kind of a tossup
Duty and Honor is something you must always take
because born leader does spread like extra 25~30 toughness with every VoC activation
and FTE is not that much on its own
show top as well
this is not rly good for recon
20% Rending?
And Brittleness!? D-DOes it work!?
It's not good
Oh lol
This is memery
I mean, can't be worse than my Helbore/Tac-axe build i had earlier.
That was trash.
bayonet charge build
No
Wait hammer can you give me advice for my build
Besides, it's the lame Bayonet attack where you slash rather than stab.
what did u make
show the entire build here
Where's your Marksman Focus?
Tempted to swap to ogryn highlighter to make it even cringier
But yes. Despite what youd' think, the Marksman Keystone is really made for sprayguns like the Recon Las, Brrauto, IAG, and so on
go all ogryn killing
yep
See, if you spray one headshot every 3s at all
you can run around fully
there's no penalty to missing
Meanwhile loser nerds using actual sniping weapons...like
Actually is it me or is Slug shotgun the most sniper feeling gun Vet has lol

genuinely feels like a bolt action
beanbag shotgun for vet when
You get very tries when using actual precision weapons to get headshots
whereas if you just held down M1 with a brrauto at a horde, you're guranteed to hit the head atleast every 20 bullets or so
Tbh I'd like shotguns more if they were permanently the special ammo type one fire, one buckshot, and one slugs
I love the slug shotgun
or if you could just, idk
permaswap the ammo type
buckshot and slug, buckshot and incendiary, buckshot and suckshot
also if their ammo counts were in any way comparable to other weapons of their power level.
The base green shotgun's spread shot. It's pretty crap
normal shotguns, decently
the issue is their long reloads and shallow ammo pools compared to Brrauto which fills the same general niche
I wanted to build combat shotguns and I thought all shotguns had run n gun so I thought I'd be able to circumvent it's lackluster performance by decreasing it's spread
And then I found out it didn't and I stopped leveling my shotgun
I wish combat shotguns were better because they have such cool looking models
Honestly I'd settle for the same shotguns but with deeper ammo pools
they don't have consistent dmg which is a big problem
that's why slug is best feeling
Oh wait nvm
What about penetration for unarmored and the fire one can spread to nearby units
Like, look at these numbers.
Blue Brrauto: 740 ammo, 120 damage.
Blue Shotgun: 76 ammo 412 damage.
Even the brown heavy stubber only gets 537 ammo and 132 damage.
the problem is that shotguns could take 2~3 shots to kill in their "max dmg ranges"
That too but
and their 1-tap ranges just aren't far enough
even if it was
so the ammo cost is artifically inflated
they have very low total damage per reload
I'm not disagreeing. I'm saying even if it wasn't artifically inflated and they spread that damage out perfectly, they'd still be miles behind similar weapons
total dmg is not rly the core problem here because the data cards don't tell u everything
like, revolver doesn't have statistically high dmg with the amount of ammo u bring
It is when the ammo efficiency becomes an issue
and it's the best gun on veteran bar none
Yes, but shotgun isn't revolver. It's used very differently and you know this
how so
that's why I'm comparing it to brrauto
it's pretty much a mid-short range inaccurate weapon
and you have to swap to slug fire to change that
I think they need to have much more consistent damage profile and better 1 shot range vs gunners & flamers
and maybe faster reload speed innately
I'm not disagreeing. I'm just saying more ammo won't hurt
could get a bit more yea
Especially when their current ammo counts are so egregious
90~130 baseline wouldn't be bad
but rly they need better dmg & better dmg consistency
if they could afford to double tap more often that wouldn't be as much of an issue either too
shotguns inherently have issues with consistency and range.
if we just made it a differently skinned lever action rifle that wouldn't really make them play like shotguns IMO
There's a point where you lower the spread to and it stops feeling like a shotgun
I don't think lowering spread is a good solution
I think increasing the minimum pellet count value and per-pellet dmg would go a long way
true
agripinaa slug also needs a dmg buff
but they did that for Kickback then kneejerk nerfed it so that the only thing minimum pellet value can take out is sniper
Check this bad boy out!
Love it so much but yea, Shot Gun is a waste.
Shotguns in vermintide also had best-in-class horde and especially berserker damage. That'd be an interesting angle to push it towards IMO.
I mean, Kickback and Double Barrel does that, right?
Combat Shotgun just.... does nothing
No buts, it's badass.
As a former Ogryn main, Ripper was useless because of the Kickback
That's how good it is!
Kickback is literally the best non PBB weapon Ogryn has, and it's decent enough even with PBB vs non-monstrosities
Combat shotgun takes 3 shots to kill a single Dreg rager
DB shotgun takes 1 braced double shot to kill 3
I honestly prefer the GG
takes out specials very reliably
for everything else there's melee
yeah let me just perfectly line up four grenades while the gunner line is piling on me after I have spent 3 business days reloading, instead of just chucking two or three kicky blasts at them while menacingly getting closer and killing a few and suppressing the rest by the time I reach them
makes sense
Grenade gauntlet has reload cancel tech
also it takes like 1 grenade to kill a gunner if you built for it
what if I'm not a sweatlord 
Then die lol
granted that involves 2s charge up
Does require a bit more skill to aim those lob shots at medium to long range tho
I guess, I don't build for bad weapons personally
kickback otoh can't pop gunners even with surgical, sadly
ogryn weapons have piss-poor crit values
Then you close the distance and give em a good wack
fun to knock em down and whack em tho
Especially since you can charge or taunt.
still, at that point I'd just skip the knockdown and just slide forward and whap
I mean, in like 5 days time you’ll get 3 automatic snipers
haha yeah
Looking forward to the overnerfed after beta autocannons
tbf I won't be playing this game once 6th December happens and PoE2 drops
will return sometime in 2025 kek
Oh and stuns interrupt your shots
You hear it going thump but nothing happens
How's this for Combat Shotgun?
One of their better picks
Aiming Down Sights?
Yea, the damage & damage consistency is horrible
How did you pull off 3 shots!? It's taking me more.
Oh, lol duh. Didn't think about Aiming
Unexplained FS mechanic mentioned 🗣️🔥
But this is tempting, even you guys have to admit that.
Unless you inspect the ADMs or something
Like, for a low ammo & slow firerate weapons I think they generally need:
consistent 1 headshot kills vs flamers & gunners
Potentially 1 bodyshot kills vs shotgunners (nice to have, optional)
Potentially 1 bodyshot kills vs trappers (nice to have, optional)
Combat shotguns just don’t do any of that
Is there an updated minimum pellet count for all the shotguns anywhere?
My guide has them
All firing modes for all 4 human shotguns
Implying Ogryns are not human? Shame on you
Game calls them abhumans
ab-Humans
Fatshark also calls “universally shared weapons” as “human weapons”
If u got a better term for that and it happens to be short I could use it instead
Full Bore No Respite Agripina 
Nah
But this is tempting tho
Is the dragon's breath shottie still valid?
usable but not great
Not in a great spot, still playable
It's a funny meme
Take it and flechette and take the spray shotgun with ws to make everything bleed slightly lmao
wait, do combat shotguns get flechette?
Damn alr
MFW the primitive tuba shotgun is better than the 40k combat shotgun
Funny Fire Bleed shotgun
if victor saltzpyre got isekaid into darktide hed probably be massively op
The Dotgun
I'm the grim darkness of the 41st... Shotguns with mags don't exist
He would suddenly be the only man in 40k who can use a sword and pistol at the same time
You're just not at kruber's level
Lostech
They do
The scab shotgunners have drum mags attached
why do the scabs just get better gear
Heretical tech 
but they still pump them 🤔
Wait, they actually do pump them! lol
it can still be pump action
If u think about it, scab captains’ void shield repel is basically heretical VoC
i know, it's just kinda cursed
just because its box fed doesnt mean its auto
not really a combo you see often IRL
i mean its still valid
yeah i mean it's not like common sense is really a thing in 40K anyway
it's whatever the fuck they want to do lol
well it wouldnt be very good to play against if they magdumped you
oh yeah and pay attention to Kruber's ammo count throughout
yeah the reason why they don't pump as fast as player shotguns do is very obvious
imagine lmao
Yeah they'd have to nerf the damage and kb
getting tarkov magdumped
at that point they'd just be like,
gunners
man does drugs, blasts an entire patrol of cahos warriors and ends up with 1 more ammo than he started with
Imagine being able to do that with kickback or double barrel
i love vermintide infinite ammo builds
It's still sorta alive
vermintide 2 was peak
I honestly just lost faith in vt2 balancing
more players than darktide
It's minimal nerfs but
the premade characters are amazingly written
enough for me to decide y'know what, fuck this
you are probably in the vast minority for the character part there
the only upside darktide has for the character creation is that there can be two vets
you really don't get that in darktide
or etc
And the voices are so annoying
I love the voices in Darktide~!
Cutthroat and Judge just sound so tryhard
Ogryns still make me giggle.
Side note, male cutthroat sounds way better with scion helmet
Yea, or any voice modification. Still, love his VoC
I don't mind most of the voices, I just think none of the player characters actually feel like real characters
They feel real enough for me.
It’s not the same as most other voice modulators
Ogryn backstory legitimately fucked
Oh? Lol
Learn more about Ogryn in this latest class spotlight for Warhammer 40k: Darktide.
#warhammer40k #wh40k #gaming
peak
so peak
do any of the helmets actually change the voice? cause they don't seem to on my client
Sorry but that's a big turn off.
There’s an option to turn off voice modulators’ effects
I can record voice differences in a bit
There’s a HUGE difference between base and scion helmet for cutthroat
I've heard pyskers and others have it, it just never works for me
kruber is an ogryn
Don't think I tried the 'sion' helmet but I tried other ones that are supposed to have it
This one has the best voice
you probably have them turned off or have a mod that turns them off then
This is same voice effect as scion helmet
It just looks 10x uglier by comparison
Not even close, what the heck!?
That helmet looks awful
I want to get the hilariously fugly voice modulator implant stuck in the mouth thing in the current pack
AND MY GAME CRASHED just as i was going to record it!@
Also what is this "communicating with fatshark..." I see now.. dangit
Just checked. Headgear voice effect is on so dunno
Lol
See, two different voices. The only reason why i wear the ugly Arges Pattern.
Got to admit, it makes my Vet look even more hardcore tho!
John Cadia
Hate the Scion Voice modif. Sounds ugly.
How do i get the Scion Helmet
They put his voice inside a can 😭
Why
Cus you did not buy it in time~!
Shitty fomo shop
Don't worry
I preordered it what do you mean?
OH GOD WHY ISNT IT STOPPING THE SCION VOICES ARE STILL PLAYING
Shitty fomo cosmetic store
why doesnt this one do anything?
It's out of rotation
Ah
or the pot helm
Well
THIS IS STILL PLAYING WITHOUT ME TOUCHING LMAO
Guess i am getting it some other day
That's creepy, wtf?
Good luck.
HIS SPIRIT HAS INFECTED MY MACHINE SPIRIT
Don't worry, Scion Helmet does not fit with anything else yet.
Lol, i bought everything Cadian related by the way. Love Cadia.
Same
Forced to listen to Scion Vet
I wasn't able to nab kasrdrip
Wait there is Kasrkin drip in this game too?
Let me guess also out of Rotation
I am grind EXP so i can unlock VoC and unlock that Armor
Complete with the cadian shoulder symbol and cadia stands inscribed on the back of the shirt
You can also buy a rebreather helmet from the commisary
Which doesn't have rotation
Neat
Whelp, shredder autopistol is my last mastery. How do I make this dogshit worth something?
Woah... i think i blew up Discord lol
I was told i should get the Recon LasGun and the Chainsword
Oh it is different
Scion helmet still sounds better tho
NOT EVEN!
Nah it just does
Any weapon can fit a cadiam
I use a Boltgun
Exchange other weapons so you don't have to do it.
Blaze Away Pinning Fire
If it's in the Cadian Shock Troops weapons profile, you can larp as one
Im broke from the other masteries that I couldnt bother to do, no cop outs for me lmao
I dunno whats worse than shredder though. One of the shotguns?
FUCK
Honestly you should do like 10 or 20 missions and not use shredder
If Ogryns had Bolters and Chainswords all they would need next is a heavily Armoured outfit and you got yourself a Space Marine with the Downies
CADIAN SHOCK TROOPS DONT USE BOLTERS
Probably Flak Maniacs
Yes
Very buggy and glitches with some animations in first person
Only cadian castellans
I guess shredder can take out maniacs and gunners ok... you need carapace and horde on your melee
Id use any of the shoties than this dinky piece of garbage lmao
The shotguns are better than shredder 
I mained the Kantrael for a long time
Well we could but they don't survive a mission
Shotguns are garbo and anyone that thinks they are good is not to be trusted.
Inquisitorial troops can use whatever they’re given
But Personally i am big Fan of LasGun
The ogryns main limit on weapons is that if its ogryn proofed or not
The Auto Guns also seem Neat
Are there better options? 100%, Vet def has some meta picks, but for on off meta pick they're definitely better than others
Shredder is no way in hell better than shotguns
U coming from ps5 preorder?
@stoic thorn Who's John Cadia now!?
I'm robbing your account of your kasrmetics
Yes
Collar & cosmetic clippings be like
Familiarize yourself with melee combat first 
Okay
I like the Shovel
But the Axe also seems neat
Combat axes are some of veteran’s best melee weapons
Also
That's just regular flak armour with kasrkin colours
Not actual kasrkin armour
Shh
The heavy armor one is carapace
The lighter one is flak
It's still Cadian colors
I would know because I have a kill team of kasrkin
Lucky Bastard!
Also change ur mesh LOD settings to 1.6
Otherwise that light Cadian armor’s sleeves will have holes
I hate painting

What I use
Jokes on you, i don't know what LOD is~!
Oh for sure, shredder is trash. But so are shotguns. I guess a lot of people like the double barrel somewhat.
I'd like to get the loyalist moebian armour from hestia
Video settings, mesh LOD
That’s actually easy
Do I need to rob her
Just max masteries and play every mission in auric
Also do some class specific penances
The loyalist moebian armour is the closest thing I know of Tempestus Scion armour
Same colour
WHAT
How far back? Really?
If it comes out with no gloves I’m not buying
Like 3 months prior
Dang
Still not something i'm planning to wear. But.... still cool
Dang
Regardless, cosmetics are cool
And THEY FINALLY added Black Power Sword
Soooooo happy about that.
I’m prob just gonna stick by this unless they drop some serious banger skins
Clean look
No matter what i buy... the Penance update gave me the Infiltrator's tactical gear. THE BEST
If they drop Tanith 1st and only with a sniper cloak for veteran I might get it
I really do look more like an Inquisitorial Shock Trooper than anything else.
Most cosmetics clip too much
This is like the 1 set where basically nothing clips
I want a red armband though. To fit with my headband.
Short sleeves.
Good luck fighting off germs with that
DT characters already don’t take corruption like “normal people”
And the short sleeves are part of why this set has no clipping lmao
If the gloves / sleeves are too big / thick it clips into some weapons’ models in 1st person
I never noticed... oh crap, going to now keep an eye on it lol.
Crack makes u immune to nurgle diseases
But i just love... the smooth black unfiorm. Fits with my black Plasma Gun and Power Sword. Beautiful~!
That plasma gun skin has its flask clip into every hand model ever

I notice this kind of stuff too fast
As for that black power sword skin
Just doesn’t look nearly as good as the other 2 power sword skins that came out before it
I bet u dont even notice the worm squriming around under your skin
Nah, the other Power Swords look over the top. Did not buy them at all
However, black? Smooth AF
The metallic one is the best one
Frick... i see the clipping now. Thanks
u could refund if u bought in last 30 days
My buddy is chewing on his desk waiting for the Cadia top to come back
Hate the rotating store that doesn’t even rotate consistently 
It’s sad because bringing back hot items like the Cadia and Krieg outfits would literally print them money
But some executive is just like “mmm but like, what if we got just a bit more making them wait another month”
The reality being that most casual players who might’ve dropped the cost of a sandwich on a cosmetic without any mind have burned out by the time the drip they wanted comes back
Checking the commodore’s vestiture on veteran these last couple rotations has been sad
Is there a Good LasGun or Autogun i should look out for for Early Level Veteran and whats a good Build i should Work towards
recon lasgun MK XII and Vraks MKV infantry autogun are the meta staples, but i'd say try more odd and end things as you're grinding, so you don't burn yourself out
as for infantry lasgun, i personally don't gel with them so i can't offer much
As long as i play with my Friends i can enjoy any game because the Banter is always entertaining
but they're all servicable copies of the same idea in light, medium, heavy variants
vet can honestly make any of the guns you can get work
Autopistol 
though you may have to lean into certain things with your talents
simply an issue of skill
I wish
also that's probably not going to be an issue for someone leveling and playing with friends
unless he gets a CBT inducing roll
Falter might be one of the better blessing picks for Mk7 infantry lasgun
unironically
i'm trying to find that picture where someone got an autopistol with a 2% damage stat
cognitive behavioral therapy?
cool bullgryn techs
that said, with ammo regen and deeper reserves you may be able to sustain it
huh, i've never actually played with shredder on vet lol
dear vetters
can i get some infiltration builds that DONT use a revolver and knife
I have one that goes for WS with las pistol and chaxe. Too bad I'm at work rn
combat axe power sword
I've never used infiltrate tbh
what vet u playing that has 2 melees
secret rager class
This is super fun for me
Both these weapons have really good draw times, why the weird 1 point dip into one motion? Looks great otherwise
You could get -0.25sec stamina regen delay for that
Fast
(also get rid of exploit weakness it's absolutely horrible)
I love instant blap from the shotty
It's indistinguishable from instant without one motion anyway
That's fair. I'm coping that it helps with crushers if I run out of nades 
Yeah that build is kind of screwed if crushers keep coming but you can buy time staggering them with shotgun
That thing better be a absomute Laserbeam with a metric Fuckton of Ammo nearly no recoil and some Vindicator Operative Level of Accuracy and a Fire Rate of Y E S
Alas, the autopistol is pretty much the opposite of all that
Ammo: needs to be more
Recoil: manageable but it's braced anyway
Accuracy: lol
Fire rate: it's full auto but it needs to be fuller auto
Easily the worst weapon in vet arsenal.
Worst in game status
Zilia told you already but get rid of exploit weakness and you can get out for blood
Then why are you telling me again
cause out for blood is GOOD
Eh, it's okay
Its spectacular, especially since you use a shotgun
And I still need to take the toughness node instead of weakness exploit
It's also okay but I don't want to drop my crackhead swap speed
nah, you need to keep it for weapon specialist
Not with these weapons
Really depends on the weapons
but, honestly, i'd keep the right top tree instead of middle top tree
I just like it even faster
Confirmed kill is one of the best nodes in the game
You don't want to drop that
It's good, but there is out for blood
I know I'm repeating, but consider, a shotgun blast into a horde ? That's between 30-40% regen instantly
That is not even close though, the toughness regen stacks infinitely
On Confirmed kill
if you were to blast 5 specialists or elites in a row, in which case you are probably already doing fine
I'm not denying confirmed kill is a very good node, but out for blood removes your need to search for those elites and specials when in critical needs
a burster removed your thoughness or a mutant slammed you ? any group of enemies will do
that's my opinion anyway, confirmed kill is a good node to keep, I'd simply value right tree more
That's fair. I'd love to take both but you usually don't have to look for elites or specials on aurics which is where I dwell
its a shame for the fireteam aura, though
but smokes being what they are, no choice
confirmed kill allows you to stack like 5-10+ of those autoregen toughness stuff
which in return turns you into a terminator for a short time
yeah, but you were already killing 5-10 specialists+ elites beforehand
out for blood would be amazing without that 1 tax point
which useful for something like Bolter
otherwise an easy skip
you are basically paying 2 points
true, but you can also grab the mov speed node
its a hard life, both trees are good and fill a role
meanwhile zealot
barely any choice
stamina or mov speed ? thoughness and regen on specials/elites or thoughness on hordes ? Swap speed or more thoughness protection ? hard choices
yeah, zealot tree is even more stuck to the same nodes
Ogryn and psykers have some good diversity
Zealot is just stuck to the 2 forever
I mean, if you give a 50% thoughness protection on crit, on a class with lots of crits, you bet people are gonna build around it
Ignoring Second Wind is a choice
you can get both
Zealot has so much damage reduction it almost feels like they cant die anyway
They get knocked down, but they get up again
~80% fully stacked without Marty
I have a build that runs all the TDR you can take
stalwart for ease of use too
Heh you know the veterans remind me of when they are shooting into an ogryns fat ass
Chivalry 2 archers always shooting their teammates
That to a point sounds like me
And my Friend
Cause i play Vet and he plays Ogryn and he always runs into the Enemies with Melee and always ends up infront of me and i always end up shooting him between 1 to 3 times
Anyone getting Back End errors?
you modding?
backend error was a common issue with weapon custom and a couple other mods because of a new dependancy they require called master items
could also be that your mod loader needs updating
Average vet main dumping all spare ammo from scavenger into ogrynz like Grendel intended
If it's anything less than the whole mag, are you really a vet?
luckily bullets not pierce allies
so as long as there is something behind the ogryn
is sending an statement to the Ogryn AND also doing its job
Bullets do go through teammates though
So does vet get anything for the December 3rd update?
No and that's okay
Would of been the perfect time for the helgun, but okay
ask your friend politely to crouch while swinging in melee
