I mean, most, if not all of the people who are saying "X weapon is dead" or "only weapon Y is gonna be viable" haven't played it yet and only looked at a sheet with numbers. Wait and see how it turns out. The real havoc shit doesn't even start until like lvl 20 once you get to damnation difficulty

cyan verge
#

we have access already to all the mutator data

wind grotto
#

which seems fine for the outfits, the real insane shit is for people who want to play the fuck you this isn't balanced don't enter if you want a good time people

thorn lark
#

and yeah, the hidden modifiers

somber adder
#

Second hand regurtitation then. Still not a reliable source.

thorn lark
#

lol, what?

cyan verge
#

this was put up by a tester so it's probably fairly reliable

wind grotto
#

build diversity is absolutely going to be dead when you hit the end of it, that is very unsurprising I don't know what to tell you

#

but the end of it is also going to be content that like .01% of the community plays

white minnow
#

it's difficulty-oriented content and going to be premades anyways,
with the state of current balance, it's going to be on the onus of players anyways to run whatever they want to get their enjoyment from it

hopefully havoc is a shift in mindset and we can get some balance stuff rolling

somber adder
open urchin
#

Ah, my scoreboard mod is broken. sadge

thorn lark
#

'' only looked at a sheet with numbers'' that's how you calculate bps, not by using magic 😄

torn gorge
#

i mean

wind grotto
torn gorge
#

if you only need x amount of runs

#

regardless of difficulty

#

for the cosmetics

wind grotto
#

yeah and only one 25+

cyan verge
#

anyway I have a feeling that once havoc's been out for a while they're gonna nerf it anyway

wind grotto
#

almost assuredly

torn gorge
#

you can do the easy ones that start at very low difficulty

thorn lark
wind grotto
#

yeah i'll just be joining randoms that are doing baby difficulty after getting my 25+ done I thihnk

#

depending on how bad whatever diff I end up playing was

torn gorge
#
  • Ranks 1 to 10 are Malice difficulty
  • Ranks 11 to 20 are Heresy difficulty
  • Ranks 21 to 30 are damnation difficulty
#

this is probably way easier than what you are already doing

#

at auric qp

wind grotto
#

well not quite true

#

some of the modifiers that are there every 5 are kind of insane

thorn lark
#

zealot knives cannot os specials past lvl11 😄

torn gorge
#

its a chance for a theme

#

every 5

wind grotto
#

yeah theres going to be a lot of people day 1 wondering why X doesn't one hit anymore or why most of the melee weapons do nothing(especially on pus skin)

torn gorge
hasty pasture
#

krak or frag

wind grotto
#

in havoc? absolutely frag

ionic laurel
#

Like revolver is dead straight up

cyan verge
#

the main problem too is we're also getting up to -75% ammo from pickups so uh yeah

wind grotto
#

I think it's way worse for melee than it is for guns

cyan verge
#

on top of enemies having like 50% more HP and so on

#

we're only getting 25% ammo

ionic laurel
#

Yep

#

If your gun no longer has breakpoints, you bleed ammo. That's a problem bc you get less ammo

hasty pasture
#

voice of command or exe stance for lasgun?

torn gorge
#

you also get more ammo spawns

hasty pasture
#

hellbore i mean

cyan verge
#

oh and - max toughness and - max hp

wind grotto
#

also the - hp% and - toughness is going to be real rough

torn gorge
#

since there is no plasteel/diamantine

cyan verge
#

voice of command

wind grotto
#

each tin is going to be 3.75%

#

enjoy your fucking nothing ammo pickup lmao

cyan verge
#

don't use the helbore imo

torn gorge
#

VoC because you can path more easily to agile engagement

#

and helbore melee triggers it

#

so get chopping

cyan verge
torn gorge
#

helbore melee does good damage

#

you just dont have block options

cyan verge
#

there's other stuff in there too which is horrifying like the horde mass and stuff

#

yeah most melees are being obliterated by that

torn gorge
#

i mean

wind grotto
#

yeah I think the horde mass is really fucked up for most melee

torn gorge
#

depends on the combo

#

if you get cranial/slimes just click heads

hasty pasture
#

what keystone for hellbore/field shovel

#

for my krieg loadout

cyan verge
#

if doing agile engagement then take weapon spec I guess

torn gorge
#

i think i took the middle one

austere mica
#

Weapon spec doesn't work with bayonet

cyan verge
#

oh

austere mica
#

Kills with the bayonet give melee specialist

cyan verge
#

unfortunate

torn gorge
#

you dont get much value from MF

cyan verge
#

and swapping with it sucks

torn gorge
#

and you need to swap weapon to trigger WS

cyan verge
#

so yeah target is the best then

torn gorge
#

which you dont want to

wind grotto
#

yeah ws is kind of bad on the helbore just because it's very swap reliant

#

and enjoy your like 2 second swap to the helbore

torn gorge
#

if you pick a helbore you kinda want to main that weapon as much as possible

cyan verge
#

it's unnecessarily slow

#

I have no idea why they did it

hasty pasture
#

no idea how to play vet

#

so

#

idk how I made it to 30 without a real build

cyan verge
#

there's no reason for your guy to like wiggle that button every time he pulls it out

torn gorge
#

also remember that helbore hipfire is very accurate

hasty pasture
#

no idea what tree to pick

torn gorge
#

and you can ignore suppression basically

ionic laurel
cyan verge
#

just speedrun to the bottom and pick all the good talents

ionic laurel
#

You pretty much want grenades up and regen on everything

cyan verge
#

ok I sleep but I'm plugging this clip again

thorn lark
#

OK

austere mica
#

Thats a shitty scoreboard wow

#

Where the fuck did that damage come from?

#

Nobody knows!

somber axle
#

203 disablers killed

#

tbh I think the damage is so wild because of the higher HP on everything plus all the extra modifiers like that hardened pus thing that makes some targets halve all incoming damage taken leading to damage numbers going wild while number of kills doesn't jump too much more

gilded wraith
#

Psyker pumped out some damage.

somber axle
#

every day I feel nudged closer to maining Psyker

austere mica
#

Psyker doesn't have twbs or good melee toughness

gilded wraith
#

And jsat wasn't even abusing macro spam for the video.

austere mica
#

An unfortunate occurrence

thorn lark
#

it's beneath him

gilded wraith
#

Agreed, but someone doing it would have an even higher damage score.

thorn lark
#

m1 macro abuser can be reported lul

gilded wraith
#

Huh, didn't know that.

hollow ibex
#

though you do have to play more carefully in general

austere mica
#

Yeah

#

It just makes me feel glassy in melee without staff weaving

#

Why I like zealot more probably

gilded wraith
#

Does it have a significant benefit on anything other than staff spam?

austere mica
#

Psyker is a lot of fun but folding to a single flamer in a bad spot sucks

hollow ibex
#

it's part of the fun whatthefuck_heresy

#

knowing every moment might be your last while playing melee psyker

thorn lark
#

that's the problem

atomic zephyr
#

quell cancel zzzzzz

#

why use the most boring part of a staff the cool bit is the next button over

thorn lark
#

exactly

atomic zephyr
#

might as well own up and pick up an autogun

gilded wraith
#

Wonder if mk3 power sword with sunder would work well?

#

Nice horizontal heavies.

hollow ibex
gilded wraith
#

Drat, was hoping the hit mass/up changes in havoc would make it worthwhile

copper verge
#

this build is rly fun but im kinda missing the shredder frags ngl lol

#

just gotta get used to krak

#

the grenade regen and demo team is kinda nice ngl especially on damnation

#

esp if i have to clutch

#

Honestly

#

Really liking weapon master with psword

#

What other guns can i run with it besides recon las XIV

#

Also, am trying to directly compare builds rn

I have the weapon master build (left) and sleepycat’s build for the XIV (right)

Kinda used to laser spam tbh and i really like it so far, not feeling that much penalty from power sword either

How I deadass watch as ALL THREE OF MY TEAMMATES GET KNOCKED OFF BY THE CHAOS SPAWN AND I DIE FROM THE ENSUING HORDE

how do I post image?

#

I just got new wep it's Braced Autogun (Vraks-MK II)

#

I was wondering if it better than lasgun

#

the infantry lasgun

warm flower
#

i run similar build

copper verge
#

oh i se

#

i might try, i have bolt pistol maxed

warm flower
#

im ingame cant be arsed to take better pics but here is my build and its invincible basically and super fun

#

wish i had 1 point more for Bring It Down

#

and this shit is 💋

umbral parrot
copper verge
#

Not a bad idea tbh

#

Is it really better than elite damage

#

The 5% crit

austere mica
supple stag
#

It's not good

#

xd

#

stick to Elite + Maniac

austere mica
#

Crit as a perk is always worse than an armor type except for certain scenarios like psyker staves or crit chain guns

manic echo
#

sooo is it better than lasgun or should I stick with lasgun

supple stag
#

If you want something for specials and shooters, stick to lasgun

manic echo
#

ok

warm flower
#

and instead of what

tall torrent
supple stag
#

5% crit chance is pretty bad, don't run it

warm flower
#

just wanna hear why 😭

umbral parrot
copper verge
#

i thought it would be good since i mostly use it on big targets tbh but the elites seems more consistent now that ive tested

umbral parrot
#

That's all the reason you need.

tall torrent
#

It’s just not worth

umbral parrot
#

Also, the only way to get 50% with a Power Sword.

warm flower
#

ermm

#

idk man

umbral parrot
#

I do. It hits hard.

#

Buuuuut you're prob better off with something else. But i love it! You can't stop me!

warm flower
#

yep, to each their own:)

umbral parrot
#

Regardless, 50% is nice.

Dodge 5 times, +5 from the right tree, and then another +5 from your weapon? BAM, 50% crit chance. powered attacks.

#

That's like...1.5/3 crits there!

#

But yea. Go Maniac/Elite.

#

Pop Dreg Rager's head

earnest bone
#

@tall torrentwhat's the patch release time

#

5 am EST?

warm flower
#

cuz i can swap nodes

earnest bone
#

unlike +3 (Curios)

grand perch
#

I think you can just go through the middle top tree instead of additionally grabbing another branch for 2 points, which you could spend further down for stuff like bring it down

warm flower
#

i'd have one required point for bring it down that way

grand perch
#

Your mileage may vary but I rarely think taking two routes at the start is worth it when the best talents are at the bottom

Hello, I was wondering what the prevailing opinions on lasguns (not hellbore) were at the moment? vohiyo

placid portal
#

Update not out i guess?

magic flume

33 mins

placid portal
real pumice
#

Oh yeah, I mentioned not including hellbore. I forgot about Recon. I mainly meant the regular kind. Versatile and "me likey" sounds promising

teal canyon
#

Imo all lasguns are E/F tear guns, even recon

earnest bone
#

meh

real pumice
#

I'm getting back into the game after a break. Feels like everything's changed 😅 I'm looking over at gun options for my Veteran. I feel like people will judge me for using Plasma/Bolter so thinking of what other guns I'd like to use😄

#

E/F tear?

slow sky

do we actually have 100% proof that it's wrong though? the post with the global map is technically for the "playstation 5 release"

placid portal

i too think it's wrong but it's possible we're about to get memed

Now we need some envenomed devil claw

the revolvers are bad

Tf you mean revolvers are strange

real pumice
#

Thank you, that's a helpful write up sammytCozy

austere mica
teal canyon
#

They either kill everyone or do no damage

real pumice
#

Oh, I see. There is disagreement then 😄

umbral scaffold
#

Are boltguns even worth using now because of the new stubbers ogryns get to use

thorn lark
#

oO

rugged fiber
#

no just use the stubber instead of the boltgun

earnest dew
teal canyon
#

Bolter is dedicated sniper rifle

thorn lark
austere mica
#

It also lets you mulch elite packs if you have ammo spare

#

And bosses

thorn lark
umbral scaffold

I’m a veteran main and I feel like I’m being stripped of my job, lel my kriegsman doesn’t like change the abhumans are taking his job-this is a joke

austere mica

A bolter weakspot magdump is unrivaled

austere mica

You job is kill things

Everyone does that and always has

Anyone here know the time when kreig sets will be added to the store?

Now if ogryn gets survivalist though it's over for us lol.

Veterans are more of a convience than a necessity now a days

earnest bone

#

@earnest dew That's good advice. I have tried the Bolter recently on the zealot. Wow its so fun now. I felt maybe I should try something more daring on my veteran though. Maybe you are right and I should just stick to what I'm having fun with 😄

An increase on the one-shot capability to the head for Bolters would be nice

Pull out.
Charge up.
Wow, one guy dead.

Meanwhile Everyone else killed 30 guys

austere mica

umbral scaffold
#

I use surgical and shattering impact

placid portal
#

Am using pinning surgical

earnest dew
#

Do you use shout or exec stance?

grand perch
placid portal
#

Ex whatthefuck_heresy

umbral scaffold
#

I use executioners stance

placid portal
#

Sure shout can cancel draw time iirc

umbral scaffold
#

I use shout for the helbore

teal canyon
placid portal
umbral scaffold
#

I use shout More as a medic not really for combat enhancement

earnest dew
#

I stopped using shout for like a wile cause I was bored of it lol. I like seeing specials line up behind thi cover and sniping.

#

Damn I cant spell.

teal canyon
#

Hellbore should chargeup passively, not when you actually need to shoot

earnest dew
#

It just be a lesser kantreal.

umbral scaffold
#

The slowest version needs stagger with its bayonet on those ragers

placid portal
placid portal
umbral scaffold
#

Then that defeats the purpose of even having a bayonet

placid portal
#

Like psyker staff melee

placid portal
austere mica
#

If you find the charge time too long switch to a lighter variant

placid portal
umbral scaffold
#

I like the way the charge is done but I wish you could press a button to stop the round instead of having to press the special ability or swapping weapons

austere mica
#

I run the lightest if I remember and still meet some pretty nice breakpoints while also being able to boardsweep ranged enemies

austere mica
teal canyon
#

Who designed a lasgun that shoot when you loose the trigger? Just pet it recharge on its own when not shooting

austere mica
#

Doesn’t feel good

austere mica
#

Or get the gun to melt

austere mica
#

Or have the barrel warp

#

Or a battery cook off

umbral scaffold
#

The Lucious pattern lasgun is a type of helgun

#

They’re meant to handle this kind of wear and tear

teal canyon
placid portal
#

Pretty they considered volatile that it would blow up on you

austere mica
umbral scaffold
#

That’s if you over charge it into a krak greande

teal canyon
#

Oh. Let, not pet. Lol

umbral scaffold
#

Only the focus crystal needs to be changed everything else can go 24/7

austere mica
#

That’s

pale pecan
#

Anyone else sad Vet didn't get the Power Greatsword?

austere mica
#

Not how electronics work

#

Especially anything high stress like say

#

A directed energy weapon

umbral scaffold
#

Tell that to the mechanicus and the administratum

pale pecan
#

I personally was really looking forward to GS Vet

placid portal
#

Nah vets get solar auxilla lasguns

solar bone
#

Meh

#

Vet

teal canyon
#

Press button. Capacitor start charging.
Why. Just let capacitor be charged all the time

#

They will get like a whole patch to themselves soon knowing sharkfat

pale pecan

Longlas and Melta incoming

austere mica

It would just discharge every 5 seconds on your back

solar bone
#

They're gonna mald about all the Ogryn snipers i nthe game and next thing you know they're have a lightsaber and a lassniper of some kind and still die to 3 pox walkers

umbral scaffold
#

But anyways hopefully the Bolters don’t feel like they’re becoming obsolete due to the ogryns new heavystubber

pseudo fiber
#

They won't.

#

At all

placid portal
austere mica
#

Why would bolter be obselete

#

The stubbers and bolter are very different

umbral scaffold
#

Have you seen the new stubbers

umbral scaffold
#

They one shot a strong amount of things

austere mica
#

Bolter is a high damage high burst potential weapon with extremely high cleave

austere mica
#

Does it make a bolter obsolete?

pseudo fiber
#

And? Bolter has more magdump plus stagger.

And is also on an entirely different class.

umbral scaffold
#

That some of the Bolters need enhancements to one shot in the “head”

placid portal
austere mica
#

Bolter also draws slow as shit tbf

#

Just not that slow

umbral scaffold
#

Yes because a helbore can oneshot an unarmored ogryn In the head

fossil basalt
#

Helbores just need cleave

Like, more cleave
Just give it all the cleave
Thanks

placid portal
#

True but it does damage immediately

austere mica
placid portal
austere mica
#

Bolter can’t though which is kinda funny

umbral scaffold
#

Since when can a bolt pistol one shot a crusher

austere mica
#

But bolter can still oneshot everything it needs to

placid portal
#

True

austere mica
#

It could do that day 1

umbral scaffold
#

Not once had that happened, and I want video proof

austere mica
#

I had a build that could do so in fact

fossil basalt
#

Bistol go BANGBANG

placid portal
#

How does bolt pistol do 4k damage in 1 shot?

earnest dew
#

It's because of that blessing that is like 100% more weakspot critical damage?

grand perch
umbral scaffold
#

What’s that one called

#

How can I learn this power

austere mica
#

Behold

#

A meme build

earnest dew
#

Deadly accurate there it is.

#

man if only Bolter could get deadly accurate.

fossil basalt
#

BANG

umbral scaffold
#

Oh ok so the marksman focus I’m guessing plays a big roll

austere mica
#

Just the rending

#

The damage can be gotten elsewhere

#

The rending is what makes the breakpoint

umbral scaffold
#

Wait deadly accurate is there now

austere mica
#

Always has been

umbral scaffold
#

Bruh

fossil basalt
#

Bistol has some fun kit ngl

umbral scaffold
#

Maybe I missed something

#

Do you need executioners stance for that though

earnest dew
placid portal
austere mica
umbral scaffold
#

Dang I wonder if you can do the same with the boltgun

#

That would make my dreams come true if that were possible

earnest dew
#

To one shot with bolter no, but you can do high burst dmg with the bolter.

austere mica
#

No DA

placid portal
#

Hip fire unloading is fun but not effective in terms of ammo usage

umbral scaffold
#

Oh well guess what I’ve got we’ll have to do

placid portal
#

Recon lasgun is insane wtf

umbral scaffold
#

It takes about 4-5 rounds to the head to kill a crusher for me

austere mica
#

You can do 4 to the body easy

#

No ranged investment

umbral scaffold
#

Maybe cause I’m a console player some of the aspects are bit iffy

#

Xbox player to be exact

austere mica
#

Shouldn’t change it

#

Zealot can do 4 shots to the body and kill at any range

umbral scaffold
#

Veterans where my questions are at

austere mica
#

That’s basically irrelevant here

#

Zealot has zero ranged boosts and can pull this breakpoint

umbral scaffold
#

Isn’t this the veteran channel

austere mica
#

That’s just a guideline

fossil basalt
placid portal
#

No aim no brain hose heads and things die

fossil basalt
umbral scaffold
#

I’m not a fan of those lasguns but then again they outpace my favorite lasguns, the kantrael and lucious lasguns

austere mica
fossil basalt
#

yeah but it's a helbore

umbral scaffold
#

That’s if you got the right build and have impeccable aim

placid portal
#

Helbores are fun once you max stack weight of fire but until then you kinda suffer KEKW_ogryn

austere mica
#

You just need surgical and shock troop

#

Wait until you have a confirm crit

#

Fire

#

Spend no ammo

umbral scaffold
#

That’s what I mean

pseudo fiber
#

The update is out btw

austere mica
#

You don’t need perfect aim for that

#

Just

placid portal
austere mica
#

1 talent and 1 blessing

umbral scaffold
#

If you want to have secure kill you do

placid portal
#

even without crits mk4 1 shots a good majority of specials and elites iirc?

umbral scaffold
#

I’m decent at hitting headshots but the stress becomes real when there’s a horde of ragers and you’re melee is a chainsword as a veteran

#

and your gun is the tan helbore

placid portal
#

Am Krieger, Kalm as a corpse

umbral scaffold
#

Then you’re already dead, I’ve no time to be calm that’s when they get you

Even worse is I use krak grenades

ew krak

#

Esp using Tan helbore?

umbral scaffold
#

Yup

It’s how I roll

#

That's even double bruh

umbral scaffold
#

That’s how you roll

placid portal
#

Krak users when the hoarde isn't Carapace/Unyielding Guarded

umbral scaffold
#

But if you could stagger the ragers with bayonet with the tan helbore that would be a god send

placid portal

*sure krak sticks to Flak

that feels a little uhh

overinvested for armor damage

placid portal

#

Tan already 2/3taps crusher

umbral scaffold
#

If you got that good aim

placid portal
#

?

#

it's.... a crusher

umbral scaffold
#

With surgical

#

You need to land headshots if you’re not using executioners stance

placid portal
#

pretty sure crusher heads are large enuff

umbral scaffold
#

I probably should be landing executioners stance but I run shout with my helbore kit

earnest dew
#

Finally I can play the new update.

They head bobble all over

It's not complicated, they are still slow.

Nope

Scab ragers.

Yeah, scab ragers. They are slow.

graceful sundial

Huh?

uncut pebble

Headshot them.

balmy flume
#

I am in between the two opinions.
Scab Ragers are slow, they do bob, but because they are closing in on you.
Headshots are still viable.
You do need to keep a cool head, and dodge backwards.

graceful sundial
#

They exactly as fast as the naked dudes

balmy flume

Dodging backwards in a straight line gives you time to line up a nice headshot

Their attacks are slow.

You can dodge them just fine.

it feels a little silly that the quintessential melee berserker enemy wears the heaviest armor type

Not against my bolter though

graceful sundial
#

Wulfer had them take a armour class

i feel like it would be a little more in line with expectations if they had a modifier or another internal carapace body part that you couldnt hit normally

#

just to rein in the silly bleed/burn rager sweeps

umbral scaffold
#

That’s be nice

#

My only thing that makes me hate them more than the unarmored ones is the random yelling of “SEX” when they try to bludgeon my head with an axe or pipe

Vets, soldier
Zealouts, priest
