Lethal explosion increases your shredder aoe
The gun itself is passable in havoc
I'm not good enough with ammo conservation for that yet.
Fair enough
More looking for something to pair with the laspistol that didn't need Trench fighter.
Power sword is an idea since you're mobile with laspistol, maybe
Not a bad idea.
Wait, are you saying even kraks get bigger with that Bpistol blessing? Heh.
Still, time for some stupid builds ever since that was the first maxed gun I had on the Vet. Though I ran it more like a poor man Revolver.
Out for blood procs off grenade kills as well.
I've been running rashad + laspis with no keystone lately on it. Good ammo eco because of Shock Trooper and Scavenger aura. Ghost is invaluable.
Mk6 psword is good but you often get overwhelmed in Havoc to the extent where you don't even have a window to activate it.
I tried making lasguns work but the dodge of laspis is too invaluable
Still tweaking it since I usually am forced to play Zealot because nobody wants to run the fucking corruption healing aura 
I tried smokes for a while and they absolutely do work but shredders are also very invaluable vs elite spam
You can dump all right side talents to get enough points to spare to path for smokes if you want them, but with no melee talents you'll have to use mk6 psword which is fine, just use your laspis for dodging
If only there weren't just 2 medkits.
?
The improv crates thing.
You're joking right
No. just wishing there were more crates.
Since most Zealots go loner.
What I’ve been running
Atp I don't even accept Zealots anymore
I just play the token aura heal and whenever I don't have to I play Vet
I mean, even the toughness DR is better.
That's fair. I just value Charismatic highly because I want to maximise aura and VoC on my team in Havoc since I actually give a shit about them for once 💀
But I guess the mindset is just don't get hit ever.
Nah, it’s not worth 1 point
I also think O4B really shines more than CK in havoc
Getting toughness from every enemy is more useful when you could get ur toughness obliterated by a single stalker
That's true
And One Motion’s faster swap speed allows u to drop frags faster
Which is very useful
5% move speed is also better than 1 stamina
I'm probably gonna switch over to that but keep most of my bottom the same
Yeah 5% movement is huge
I don’t think BID is particularly strong for havoc
Breakpoints are all over the place
Especially on Psyker not taking Scryers. Being left behind constantly is a pain.
Suppression pathing is interesting I wonder if it's worth on laspis
I can test
This is true I was really tempted to drop it
this is what plasma with +suppression looks like
2 shots shut down entire wave of shooters
First shot lower accuracy
Second shot force cower
I'm taking + suppression on my tree in 40 too
Idk if it really does much for recon but
That's pretty good. My teammates are usually very shooter blind so I've been using the laspis mostly
Ammo is such a pain in the ass in Havoc so it's hard for me to drop it
I'd happily use plasma over laspis if I had an EK psyker on my team that could shoot for shit
Actually it does like nothing for laspistol lol
Born leader it is then
Wonderful lool
U can’t force cower with laspistol easily
Does recon even get ghost I don't remember
No
No
I think I'll pass
Swap to born leader
It doesn’t do much
Doesn't do anything for recon either?
I just think Las weapons just have generally low suppression.
The one time I actually care about suppression
Unless it's Scab gunners, but they cheating.
Tbh I usually get annoyed when shooters are suppressed while I'm using laspis
Guess it's born leader yeah, fte is unusable with infil
If u hose them before they shoot it works
I just point and click all 40 of their heads and walk away with more ammo than I began the fight with
My only problem with laspistol is it feels very very lopsided of a loadout if you take knife or ds4
Need my fellow loser vets to tell me any use using anything but the duelist sword like what else is on its level
On its level for what
O ok
Knife/ds feels awful in Havoc especially when you roll Moebian horde
Just like damage and how good it feels stuck
Also no need to run dodge melee on the best dodge gun
If you're good at it you can swap to dodge
It's the most common melee in high havoc
I don't think it should be lol
That's psyker
Yes
And you have to fight as a team on 40
Wandering off even a little is throwing
I wish my teammates got that memo
You want your melee to kill armor so most people just ds4 for that + mobility
When horde comes it's purg staff or throw in flamer on zealot too if purg isn't enough
Yeah for a premade that makes sense sadly I only have 1 friend good enough for high Havoc so I am Forced To Endure
I don't pre-made
Pugged 40 since week 1
Ppl should know what they're doing at that rank is all
Maybe the pubs in EU are just mentally deficient
Me
Also
Get more luck out of american matches but the ping is insane
Recon is nice to help hose down the hordes a little if it's necessary
It doesn't need very much ammo
Hate when fellow british people talk to me on comms
Isn't the slower firing recon the best
We're in the vet class

Damn that's quite good
Slowest is my favorite in auric
But rhe middle one is my favorite
In havoc
Ammo efficiency is best on 6
How should my talent tree build?
What level are u
13
Just don't use points?
That’s not what I said
I had already went to the shredder frag cuase that seems interesting
And I wanted the increased damage below
Ik I was asking
Run this for now
Don’t worry about deep build crafting yet
yeah especially when you're loads of points down compared to the rest
also pretty much everything you pick at the level you're playing at will be fine
I'm gonna say dont run this
because it'll not let you learn the game properly
if at any point you have a get out of jail free card to unpunish yourself
you never really have to consider what went wrong or how to get out
especially early on learning game mechanics is so much more important
At your level I'd just slowly path towards this talent in any way you see fit since it's very handy to have. Don't worry about finalising your build until you're 30 just experiment with whatever looks cool and you find enjoyable.
kraks are a good shout so low level though
low level chaos spawn is gonna fuck people up because you dont really have tools to deal with him especially when new
I think thats been the worst part of levelling new classes, watching people insta die to chaos spawn then having to 1v1 it with 0 damage
Also much harder to tag with kraks. And people not going into melee if someone gets grabbed.
you 100% should have 10% xp on all your curios though
the faster you can level to 30 the better
low level skill tree is shit
and not being able to grind gear properly till 30 (unless they changed how the stat gen works) is also giga lame
U can 100% get gear before lv30
All weapons have max potential so u can craft a gold 500 godroll pretty early on as long as u have mastery for that weapon
Is more, the RNG from 180-500... Any level cann ruin the god roll.
wont it start with gimped starting stats though?
I have had guns go from 80 ammo to 75 ammo and 65 mobility.
so higher cost to actually get it up
Everything does
And it doesn’t cost that much more
in auric sure you get resources super fast
but in regular mode low diff
you get very little
Compared to before the U&L update where u physically cannot craft anything before lv30
yeah I mean this is an improvement
~1400 diamantine and ~3k plasteel per weapon
It’s not hard
They just need to fix the bug.
even if it is more time consuming for me to craft weapons now which is kinda annoying
14 runs is a fair few
I have no idea on the numbers but I dont think you get that much plasteel in regular no?
for damnation that is
U also don’t need gold 500 weapons for malice
But that's 14 malice run that can be ruined cos the RNG dictates you get a max stat switch on your item.
not building for malice though :kwke
Plasteel is worthless, it’s diamantine that matters
tbf you'll get bad perceptions of good and bad here
U can get like 400 plasteel easily in malice
as typically people here are giga active players that want the perfect roll
Heresy goes up to 600 ish
but really having slightly scuffed stats will be functionally identical on most weapons
But ~1400 diamantine is a hard ask for most new players
It's Diamantine actually.
3k plasteel is 3 damnation games
1.4k diamantine is like 5 damnation games
It’s not equal ratio
Is chainaxe Bistol a good loadout for auric ? I’m having a really easy time in damnation with it. I just don’t know the build for it ngl
Thing is, not everyone can really do Damnation stable.
yeah I'd say so
That’s why they gotta learn
I was running that had a lot of fun
Especially not newer players.
It’s quite good, I love the charge special then heavy overhead on crushers. Melts them so fast in 1 hit
And then you get into a loop of, it'll feel bad if I try harder diffs without a maxed weapon, but it's tiring to get a maxed weapon combo.
yeah the chainaxe 1 hit on crushers feels so goooood
until you play with a dueling sword player
who kills a crusher and then the crusher you're chain attacking...
in the time the animation takes
Playing heresy with suboptimal gear is totally fine
And yes, i know a top 1% can basically do Auric Damnation with the starter grey.
Heresy is ~200 diamantine ish?
I started using dueling before chainaxe its defo better but omfg I LOVE THE CHAINAXE
So that’s 8 heresy runs per weapon
yeah I think the chainaxe is super satisfying
you need to run ws
for the attack speed
or it physically cannot keep up at higher level play
but once you've got that it's pretty good
It doesn't feel right because you barely meet breakpoints.
it's just in that camp of weapons where when times are easy, its amazing... and when its just you and times are hard... it's not as hot anymore
Depends on the roll.
No? Heresy has a lot less health than damnation
Like an example, a crit shot can 1 tap a reaper on malice, but takes 2 shots, 1 crit for Heresy.
What
You can build it for 1 shot if you have a maxed gun.
I had a game lastnight I clutched up with a mastery 4 chainaxe and my Bistol lol. It’s definitely hard to use when against a horde solo but all you need is the legendary, the mythical Doorway lol
What weapon
Revolver.
lmao
but yeah the build feels super thematic
I just wish the chain axe got some love
some better move speed or dodge better
I wish chainsword had armor pen like the axe ngl
and better attack speed so it doesnt feel limp against poxwalkers
And no, I know there's no point in revolver on Damnation.
Too many bullets to kill to be worth.
yeah regular combat axe is probably always gonna be better than the chainaxe unfortunately but
Malice reaper is 2500 health
Heresy reaper is 3k health
Really not a big difference, especially when u have agile engagement up
the one shot rev attack is fun?
This is completely wrong
Revolver is only not good in havoc lol
revolver is giga in damnation
One shot rev will always live in my heart as the goat
Thing is, my unoptimised gun hits for 2.7k.
just run exec stance
Crit headshot, reaper.
worry about breakpoints never again
Have agile engagement up and you get that breakpoint anyway
Dumpstat for chainaxe is mobility right ?
It’s not specifically tied to “I gotta have a max power weapon”
uhh defences
Really ?
“Damage stat” doesn’t impact damage as much as u think
you dont wanna dump its already stinky mobility ye
defence just makes your push attacks cheaper
Chainaxes on vet is kinda oof, better used on a zealot
and something else equally forgettable
even though the push attack on the mk12 is really really good
the stats worthless
I have a chainaxe with everything 80 besides mobility
they only feel oof without attack speed
It feels really good tho
But VoC.
same on zealot
you can play without voc
But shouty
Mini shouty. Zealots louder.
Agile engagement
Everyone loves shouty
Minor shouty vs major shouty
Is that the on dodge one?
No
Ni
Ce
25% dmg with other weapon after getting a kill
Because I basically know nothing of the right side tree other than Onslaught, lul.
What should I be running on chainaxe ?
Why do u have onslaught for revolver
Headtaker and the other one right ?
Naw, that's for Recon memes.
which version?
Bro never experienced melee vet
I have the poopy one rn not the better one
sadge then I have no idea check the guide
Not the one with better heavy’s
Playing malice with torrent and it and just shoot everything durp.
swap to the mk12 as soon as you can
I’m trying 😭
with the mk12 I run headtaker + thrust since it lets you one shot crushers with the special
I fell asleep before I could max it
Which combat knife is good
lmao
Mk3 or Mk 6
both of em
though I think its the mk 6 people prefer
since it has better horde clear
personally I dont like it though, mk3 the goat
stabby stabby
I might have the mks reversed
I'll try stabby
Personally. 3 is better if you can headtap consistently on everything. 6 is better horde clears.
you can headtap with the 6 it just is way more push attack heavy
where on the mk3 you can save your stamina for push attacks in other situations and be less reliant
iirc
at least
I havent really dont much testing with the mk6 so just what I've heard from others mainly
note to self: queue havoc 7pm for people running 40s
Well, 3 is like DS for horde clear.
Mk6 u punch and stab spam for single target dps
So is the Vraks MK 5 good?
Your finger will hate you for it.
Very strong
Havoc 40 done again Psword plasma goated
Do note that any opinions I have for those two is purely from Zealot stuff. But honestly, don't think it changes much.
nice
free 35k plasteel next week
just finished my 40 too
My favourite part was when I got knocked off the map by a flamer at the start and I was so mad
but then we beat it pretty easily after that so who cares
No sdaly
whats blessing good on mark 4 devil sowrd?
Check the pins
ty
Marksman isn't a bad idea
Id give up some points to get desperado on the right personally
Or stam regen
Idk if psword needs
Powersword exists seperate from the skilltree
However I like trench fighter drill on ot
Well w/o changing the build either marksman or Stam regen
field improv is also just a good node if you've already met most of your minimum reqs for the ilas
i still dont know what this means on the shock maul's falter blessing
passively buffs your ranged?
man party finder is depressing
Regular play is bad right now too, it's a rough time for randoming.
this is an incorrect tooltip
it only reduces enemies`stagger reduction by x10%
got the other trouble child. If anyone else is going for this one, don't use the double barrel or combat shotgun, they are bugged for it. Got it with revolver
I got it with double barrel first try iirc, what's bugged about it? or did I just get mega lucky
No idea what you mean by bugged considering I got it the first time I tried using that
only missed a single shot with double barrel and it didn't pop, looked online and apparently there were a bunch of issues if you were getting multiple targets per shot
also apparently the vet smokes after that achievement, because the award chestpiece has a pack of smokes strapped to the shoulder
hmm
I made sure to be point blank when I fired
so maybe sometimes the pellets fuck up accuracy if they all miss
determined
wildest game of auric I've played
start of chasm station I 10000iq play by diving off of the upstairs right at the start but the knife lunge sent me flying missed the ledge 100 to 0 hp
proceeded to watch two full teams of players die and rotate out
then mission fail
Malice, with a psyker that somehow managed to go boom picking up another person.
Just how? I thought you can't go boom from the talent?
No clue, turned away to shoot specials, heard the Psyker go down with nothing next to them.
shouldn't be possible...
KD turns off at 97%
Strange!
Just shouted both up confused.
I remember there used to be exploit that all you have to do is shoot all the ammo you have and then force close the game and then rejoin the game then you the last remaining bullet to shoot something and play entire game with just melee
idk if that already fix
would have certainly been less effort
almost done with killshot ready. 250 more kills
apparently rejoining game reset all your stats
but idk if it actually fix or not
would love to get that armor tho
it's not too hard with a revolver, run a melee build and pop it point blank
imagine the enemy die right as you about to shoot your gun

I just point blanked a bunch of trash with the revolver early on and stuck to the power sword for the rest of the match
and the third and final problem child is put to rest
yeah that's where my 3 missed shots went. but do have a buffer of 5 to work with
Is the shout that can res any useful
Are there any builds that can utilize it
just for a fun build
Not anything competitive
Not worth usually, can be fun if you’re into role play
bet
It's really cool to use rez shout if somebody is downed under fire to instantly kill them
finally, a valid use of rez shout
Call it the commissar's execution for not doing well
You play with randos, you get newbies doing dumb things while learning. You shout to pick them up so you can keep shooting specials. Basically. Also, the whole, you can't die till i say so lul.
You mean third time.
If you get actual newbies, it's usually on uprising while half asleep or malice.
Cos you can now find lvl 6 ppl in malice doing newbie things.
I would actually fall asleep in anything below damnation
And I get close in damnation as well
Havoc has done horrible things to my ability to enjoy this game
Auric HiSTG is Soo easy compared to havoc nonsense
To be fair, I'm already half asleep when starting. Just don't want people to suffer a half nodding off person trying to get sleepier.
Well, my mind just treats it as a super power fantasy. Turn off brain and boom. Sometimes, you don't want to just stress. And to be fair, I did mention I'm generally mechanically bad at games. It's just how brain is wired at times.
And it only gets worse when under stress.
There isn’t enough stuff below damnation for me to power trip on
Havoc has ruined me
Bonus, my reflexes got shot so hard, it feels so different when it was 15 years ago.
Where I can dodge instagibs on the most paper things with blinks and such.
Anything less than half the specials and elites on my screen doesn’t really elicit a response anymore and it’s fucking strange
VoC lvl 30 Recon Lasgun lvl 28 havoc, why is no one accepting me to level 30 havocs?
That depends on many variables
Recon Lasgun maybe? Everyone expects a plasma.
Don't know actual level, but, Im fully built to run a recon lasgun.
That doesn’t really mean anything
For me it's one shotting big things. BOOM.
Send a picture of your talent tree
Imme a sec.
Even in D&D I always ended up making stupid OP boss solo chars, that could be explained away lorewise.
I mean, how do you get a 147 damage a turn cantrip spammer.
EXACT build sheet. @austere mica https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9db42667-952e-4375-9a2a-e5bca6f70811/all-rounder-recon-lasgun-vet
On what lvl
Aye
It's third party btw.
okay, got a better build for me to run?
Just so minmaxed, the GM basically is like, I'm just banning you from saving up for certain items lul.
...anything you advise?
Whole different ballpark than standard play
And all that item is is add +7 to 8 hits a turn.
Right.. which is why I went with a VoC build, it restores toughness and grants temp invinc
Yeah but the specifics are highly questionable for normal auric stuff
Let alone havoc
All i know is, plasma is core and that's about it. People will drop you if you roll up with anything else unless it's 1-10 havoc.
At least when a friend told me since he plays higher havoc with vet.
I hate plasma too
I mean, I actually DONT mind playing plasma.
I just like the ability to handle large crowds with ease.
I just physically know i can't without being carried.
Fuck it, i'll try a plasma voc build.
That’s the thing though
In havoc
Recon can’t do that
Enemy hitmass has outscaled its cleave
Not even revolver can pierce that much.
I mean, actually it's not too bad, I can down like 6 ragers before I start having to run away.
Revolver just sucks in havoc anyway
It misses all its breakpoints
Figured.
What do YOU recommend for vet in Havoc?
It already misses damnation breakpoints without going specific stuff.
God forbid i'm showing up with a Lucius. I'll straightup just not do it.
I said earlier I have no idea
I have no clue either, as said, only technically did 17 on Psyker and got dooked on by the game to 14. And I can honestly say I was struggling already.
Havoc is definitely not accessible to people who cannot do auric maelstorms regularly
Or at least anything past 20
I figured.
I mean thats the whole point of havoc
I still find it hilarious the amount of people who are mad that havoc is hard
Is just, stagging hordes is helpful, dome is always nice. I'll be underperforming but it's not full deadweight at least. But anything higher, don't think I'll be able to do much.
I know my skill and it isnt sufficient for 20+
I do think havoc is really cool for actually forcing you to build around it and play as a team
And then you still get loner stealth zealots leeroying.
Because they aren't the host.
They don’t make it anywhere
Some even bait and switch.
But stealth zealots dont learn
Because stealth is already shafted by its pathing in normal play
They use a decent chorus/corruption removal build and last sec switch.
I mean, it's still 'fine' in sub 10s, i guess. Makes everyone else suffer unless they are also solo types.
Infantry.
already have an infantry exe stance build
Vraks infantry autogun
Agri braced autogun for more of a counterstrike/class fps kind of weapon
Braced is fun for some.
oh infantry autp gu
auto gun
my assis dumb
i instantly thought infantry las
mb bro
Headhunters/Vigilant is pointless imo.
whats one that makes me feel like rambo
And uh single shot vigilant for DMR
that can actually hit stuff
They all can if you stand still and tapfire (braced autos) also don’t brace with them 
I think 2/3 of them have no reason to brace, and then the 3rd gets a big RPM boost from it
But, but, but, fun. Or ehm, I can't get it to pop heads even in malice.
Just changed to a plasma build, here's hoping I get accepted into some havocs.
3shot vigilant is also good if you can stand burst fire
Sounds like you need to build it properly
Cause it’s an extremely consistent dmr in damnation
Sometimes it aint about the gun, its the dude shootin it
Even more so than the inflas series but that’s imo
You still don't use that brace to brrr one I think. Just eh. Some joke about unbinding the ads/brace button for the BAG.
that doesnt apply to the shredder auto pistol tho
Well autoguns shoot bullets
Shredder is just bad
Infantry autoguns are automatics and behave like a normal ads shooter gun
Brautos are also fully auto and do more base damage but have worse aim and finesse ratio (crit/weakspots) iirc
Probs build related since my actual talents are the lazy no situational stuff. Most is +25% crits at cost of stamina.
Vigilants is separated between two burst fires (3round, 2 rounds) and a single shot DMR
How do you make marksmans focus fun to use?
Shotgun, or Viag
Helbore,bolter
Bolter loves focus target too much
Inf las just sucks. Everyone I know says it's crap. Just use IAG. Or heavy laspistol.
Imo
Inflas doesn’t suck
Anyone who says that is just being irrational
It’s mid and powercrept
But it’s not shredder, it’s completely auric viable
You need the hold and shoot mod for it.
Nah, i like that more for the mk3 vigilant
Cos it feels bad without a turbo controller or that mod tbh.
same for the laspistol n such though
True.
without full auto a fair few weapons in this game are just rsi sim
Only a “maybe” for Mk IIb
Other 2 variants don’t need it
Which I feel like I'm getting from knife/dueling on zealot already lul.
yeah its a shame the melee version of full auto (keep swinging) isnt very good
better than nothing though
Charge with fury and poke things funni.
But yeah, finger killer and bad since you do want heavies on melee.
Aw mann
I wonder how ppl on actual consoles use them.
Its sad that its true
uncomfortably I imagine
I will add though
Turbo controllers aren't allowed on Xbox.
"just use X"
isnt really a good argument
you should primarily compare the strength of weapons to the challenge set by the game
or the number of good, viable weapons becomes a tiny fraction of what it is
It can work, but it needs to have a reason to be chosen
fun? aesthetic?
something different?
idk I think a lot of the strongest weapons tend to be the least interest
ing
Why most go plasma late, only thing that really does anything in late havoc. Cleave, damage.
Relic blade and force greatsword seek to defy this
Click trigger (it’s not as fast as u think)
arent all the las weapons and the bolt pistol also p good in havoc?
Most things you find fun are stripped away there.
a console trigger is a lot less fucky on the joints than a keyboard
but I dont think a laspistol is gonna be super comfy to use there either
if you have normal non fucked up hands
for sure
I cant exactly say the same 
4.43 clicks per second
I have a controller with such triggers, even rocking finger still hurts after a clip.
I can see all these work, still doesnt fix the stagnant playstyle
I can barely hit that
it's not that its too fast to hit
its more that you're going to be doing it
for like 25 minutes straight
with not a lot of down time
The thing is so sensitive with it on, a mild brush on the trigger fires.
its the same reason I sorta struggle with the heavy sword with its really long held heavies
fatshark dont really give a shit about accessability but at least pc players have mods
Will still kill your finger. I know.
glory hunter bp is good yeah just competes for a lot of other stuff
does it proc on the bleed kill though/
my build focuses on toughness and kills
I’m still sad DA loses to lethal prox puncture
so i think it justifies
my build regens toughness on either melee, shout or kill
so any sort of toughness regen
goated
I think its still fine if you're going to be using your ranged weapon primarily, and you dont wanna rely on dots to get breakpoints because thats gross as hell
you dont need da for dog breakpoints anymore
I mean, I still need a, no b/w effect on last wound since the effect basically blinds me.
but without focus target or maybe? marksmans focus you need it for ragers and... something else
I forgor
hows this idea for a commissar build
pure RP tho
shout with res
bolt pistol and power sword
dude its so bad
mostly support and horde clearing
I know I can mod, but if mod breaks....
I hate it so much
so frags instead of kraks
WHY THE FUCK DOES NO ONE ACCEPT ANYONE FOR HAVOCS?
just join vcs and ask if they do havocs
90% success rate for me
host your own
if they arent, they still playin damns or aurics
people will join p fast
Did it with chainsword. Is okay.
shout with res?
Yes.
man the rez shout is like
everything I actually want from voc
underpowered
I mostly derp in malice and sometimes you just don't wanna deal with manually picking ppl up.
impactful effects rather than constant spam
what chainsword do i even use
I wonder how fast you can get revive speed
Cos that lvl 6 psyker went boom for the fourth time.
because im so used to abusing the MkVI power sword
that spams lights
the cadia 13 isnt for me
grr
idk I'll be honest I've barely used the chain swords since they got nerfed
the 1h ones at least
No
they used to be a little goofy silly on their m1 spam
Is malice. Anything works but the shredders.
If it did plasma gun + frag would be insanely busted
chainswords still good for... like.. only clearing horde...
Anything works in malice period lol
the moment i see literally anything
plasma uses too much ammo?
Malice is the only place shredder works lmao
atleast powersword i can fighting retreat
Wallahi. He's finished.
the power sword is just so much better
That doesn’t even happen in game
Havoc throws like maybe 20 ragers in 1 wave
i hate that fact
was exaggerating
sometimes the director cooks
Maybe it feels so bad, I think is only for sedition.
oops all X
the point comes accross tho
this has got to be bait
Just go blazing pinning and ads constantly
Okay whats your angle
I use shredder auto on 90% of my builds
Shredder pistol?
its amazing
my angle is I got confused 
I thought you meant the frags
But it burns so much ammo. I don't wanna ammo gremlin to kill things.
not the autopistol or whatever
isnt the autopistol giga suppression
dont you enjoy suppressing things?

Giga stagger
You are in malice
I use boltpistol at that point.
You can ammo gremlin all you want
they should buff the shredder autopistol
by
giving you a second one
you hold in the other hand
There is like 1200% ammo per map period from crates and pickups
But, but the gunlugger wants to shoot everything as well.
And you have survivalist
His problem of not being able to find ammo
You have the autopistol just run ahead
Double everything but firerate technically?
Looting is a skill some people just don’t have it
p much
Lads. I needs yalls opinion.
I know Plasma Gun is rhe meta. But how does a Shotgun build in Veteren sound? Ass or nah?
they'd likely be giga with doubled but
They should buff shredder by reworking finesse
I just want some dual wielding 
DB shotgun is niche but fun
Combat shotguns are rather disappointing atm
Dbarrel weapon spec is a consistent great offmeta pick
I probably wouldnt run shotgun without exec stance
Nah
Combat shotguns are mid but they use the same blessing that makes dbarrel good, manstopper
But why
Finesse is the last thing a braced gun needs
Just curious cuz once I start my Vet grind.
because their breakpoints are shitty without it
If you want Agripinna... Boltpistol/revolver kinda covers the role.
I wanna have a shotgun build.
They should separate crit and weakspot ratios
with exec stance they feel good
Infiltrate with weapon spec
Interesting.
And can actually one shot.
It’s already separate in terms of code
Some weapons just have the same values between weakspot & crit
At least malice/heresy lazy build.
I'll have to find a good shotgun build somewhere then.
this makes me so sad
theres like
Make your own
Cuz I really don't wanna play Shout/Plasma build.
So weapons aren’t divided between “high finesse and therefore good if they can abuse crit and weakspots” or “low finesse and needing base stats to compensate or be trash like shredder”
the shotguns should feel wayy meatier up close
That shit looks boring.
they basically just get some funny boss damage
They feel limp.
plasma gun is real fun, for like... a set number of games then its not
I think bodyshot focused weapons need to be better in general, it’s not related to finesse
revolver is fine imo, just ws giving it free reload is dumb
I was not expecting a Osu reference in a Darktide server.
separating crit and weakspot down the line, means you can have 4 classes instead of 2. “Base stats” “crit weapon” “weakspot weapon” “true finesse weapon”
But slug shot point blank reeeeeeeeeeee.
I used to be
an addict
I've recovered now
All too complicated
No i think the best identity for shredder that is already setup
Is crit
but I still hear the big black when I drift off to sleep 
Good man.
Boltpistol technically hits for less, but you don't need to reload every shot for the effect.
And your frags get boosted.
the combat shotguns should have just been their special ammo types as a toggle
then balance them around that
It has crit blessings, it has a “good” crit chain
mega support
Sgotguns should have like ramp up within 6m of the target up to like 1.5x
Yes
yurrr
fury of the faithful used to be so fun with the shotguns on zealot
because you could dash and explode ogryns
I did say that. Just give us a toggle to load all slugs. It would be more viable.
then they nerfed it ;-;
sounds terrible tbh
If it crit for say, an extra 1.0 ratio, i think that would be a good start for making it a unique weapon
res shout with the revive speed node
Like 25% of ammo pool is your special ammo reserve(separate)
At least you now have a mid range super stagger shot.
this could be cool yeah
also they need some
And you just load it up to full
I should ask that too.
Is a shotgun build better on Vet or Zealot?
zealot probably
Cet imo
Zealot.
just because vet has access to other better options
would this be useful for a chainsword
It’s vet for dbarrel
If u mean DB shotgun, veteran
If u mean combat shotgun, still veteran but veteran has better weapons to choose from
unless you wanna run exec stance the shotty damage feels rough
It’s more balanced for combat shotguns but it’s still vet
best way of putting it ye
Stealth double, I think.
zealot only because by comparison its not as bad a pill to swallow
can this work for a chainsword or nah
Funny boom out of stealth.
No
Ability doesn’t matter too much i take shout, weapon spec and manstopper is what makes the weapon
aight
Shotties need a buff or rework
That talent exists solely for mercy killer with knife
Garbage talent always take the other one
1 stack of bleed really isnt much
Only use case for serrated blade is a mercy killer+ 1 knife
ogryn batter is like 3? stacks of bleed and even thats kinda slow
and thats being applied to waaaaaaaaaay more targets
Batter is 4
even worse then ye
But u get to 8 fast
I mean Zealot top right stuff is basically knife memes or I guess chainstuff.
Scourge is 2 and zealots only take it for the 30% crit chance
yeah its a mad amount of crit chance
You just don't crit as much without more effort on it on other classes. But still god mobility till you accidentally dodged off the map.
Don't ask.
wouldnt be me
🚬 I definitely didnt
accidentally lunge off a ledge, miscalculating because of the heavy attack speed and falling to my death
w-what kinda idiot would do that
I know right?
No
Top right is the best starting path for zealot
yeah the other paths have some rough choices
also no throwing knives
throwing knives based
Pity console players/controllers. GL using it lul.
Better toughness sustain in melee
Better crit chance through bleed
Gain toughness on dodge (crazy good)
Gain high TDR on crit (also crazy good)
lol, lmao even
And throwing knives are the best special sniping tool in the game
It's down on the Dpad.
Yep.
are there no other control schemes?
There are
also are we living in the year of our lord 2024
and controllers still cant just rebind keys
It's like that for most of them.
But most controller players are too lazy to re-bind
Also the one with bumper to dodge.
hollow knight moment
Which is a must unless you like jumping to the side and dying
I choose to eat shit when I accidentally jump instead of dodging 
I definitely am not just lazy and dont want to change it
this really is not a controller game
GL moving and pinging.
i imagine controller ranged meta is very different
Oh yea they used to have crazy bullet magnetism (doesn’t exist with mouse control)
Well, controller on PC can abooze the auto tag mod.
I think they patched that out tho
honestly give it to them again
when was the last time you saw a controller player actually pop off?
It still is there, just MUCH weaker.
that also basically do not exist at the highest levels
im a lunatic
and havent changed that
lol
both are still on space
ditto
I re-binded jump to mouse5
I think mouse 5 is my special attack key
Like, I can switch to it and do some shots that should not work on mouse, but the leeway is smaller than some.
4 being my grenade
I play one of the weirdest keybinds ever
even mouse and keyboard gets some silly aim help with some weapons
You need to ads for it though.
the zarona makes enemy heads huge
that thing literally fires logs
or whatever its called now
It’s not bullet magnetism
I got my funny jump key on alt 😌
Which, vt2 got my muscle memory too powerfu rn
hit me with it
so I can judge you
It’s just the hit registration box being large
I don’t play WASD for movement keys
bigger
No
It’s the bullet itself’s hit registration box being larger
my judgement is increasing by the second
what do you use
I assume it must be comfy
WQSD
okay no you're a freak of nature
Just wut.
you a fighting game player or something
Is this some custom keyboard pad thing?
I fail to see how that makes it more comfy
Ring finger on Q
Middle finger on W/S
Index finger on D
hmm okay
oh that makes snese
It’s simply more ergonomic
It's just weirder than someone using a controller.
resting position more comfy but reaching other keys less so
And yes, the one thing controller have is ergonomics.
Weapon swap
yeah but effectively replaces q
It's like when csgo folks move from WASD to like ESDF
Nah I think the problem is the shape of WASD itself not being proper
😌
If only i didn't build years of muscle memory around it
THAT is the struggle
little finger to shift for sprint?
THEY TRIED TO TEACH ME HOW TO PUT MY FINGERS TO TYPE
Left alt for sprint
Learned my own way
I don’t use shift or control
guess that makes sense
Horrible keybinds
not a fan though
maybe thats just because I'm used to it
only game I can think that defaults sprint to alt is minecraft? and I hated it there
C crouch/slide
X grenade
Z auspex
My hand hurts thinking about it though.
yeah that shit is dumb asf
wrists off the desk
just hovering there
i just made a support commissar
E interact
R reload
F ability
T large item
drip check passed
1 melee weapon
2 ranged weapon
3 tag
4 comms wheel
5 stim
now time to die the moment 15 ragers spawn
Would do if they ever rerun the red commisar set tbh.
rerunn with a different name and a higher price tag
dude just use for the drip
i just stole dukanes hat

she pegs me so i take her hat
just too powerful
im still livid about dukane
I’ve been liking these
the normal commisar cosmetic looks dogshit on the female rig
and dukane gets her own way cooler outfit
bro change the one we gottt
me: clears auric mael rolling steel
dukane: prove yourself lil bro
I'm gay enough as well, just taken already.
Someone showing drip without for the drip 
dukane 100% got gorilla grip btw
real
every loss

she uses the power phallys
bro is taking the most grimdark backshots
not super keen on your zealot but I like the vet
real
bolt pistol pointed at my head
power phallus in my ass
you can get good drip without for the drip
I might grind a couple million dockets for the commissary stuff
Too lazy to mod tbh. Is why I turbo controller at times lul.
real
I want that green & tan psyker armor
is this like a consensual-non-consent thing
And maybe the white zealot robes
some of its real nice
I think most of my zealot is commisary stuff
just not the head
kinda
commisary is lowkey goated
Plus, no point in drip if nobody else can see it.
I like the death korps grenadier helmet for zealot
i aint boutta spend money on whats basically a wearable NFT
