#veteran-class
1 messages · Page 1145 of 1
seeing a smoke vet on a high havoc difficulty is about as relieving as seeing a river in the desert
wished they were just impact nades personally
ONE LAST THING I HATE when my HAVOC team is like "WTF, i died in 1 hit"
In other words, they're saying they never played HAVOC long enough to know what's what lol
No worries, i'm doing pretty good. Got a good team on me. Just venting a bit lol
even then I happen to be an xbox player anyway
It's all good. Not all console players are bad. Yesterday's dream team, there was one in my team
OGRYNS
You think Smokes are good? Shield Ogryn is soooo awesome
Like, anyone who rejects Ogryn is a f-tard!
lemme tell ya man, nothing is more badass than single handedly holding an entire chokepoint as a shield ogryn
Like, i know people are complaining that Ogryns have been nerfed. Yea, whatever. They have. But a good Ogryn is a good Ogryn.
then again they kinda nerfed one of his more fun playstyles
lol
aka a fucking A-10 warthog on legs
Smoke enables ogryn to do a lot more in havoc
Yea, i'm a smoke user. You can imagine how good we did.
The two other zealots who were decent players jsut spammed book. lol. They knew they were support.
YOU KNOW WHAT
That's what makes a good HAVOC team. People knowing their shit.
smoke basically disrupt’s ogryn’s main threat allowing them to reach their full potential
It's really skill. And some know they just lack them. I can still oof with the most meta of meta builds.
that’s just every team lol
Smoke allows ogryn to get into melee to bully ragers & maulers before shotgunners get to shred ogryn into pieces within 2 shots
I don't hate people who lack skills. I just dislike it when people think they're tough shit and trying to do HAVOC when they can't even live on Damnation.
Get shot by havoc pus hardened reaper enough times and you’re bound to learn things
honestly should get back into shield ogryn
I'll just be honest and state you'll totally be carrying if we are trying to go to 25.
yeah anything above 20 instantly feels harder than Auric Damn
20 lights out.
do fatshark employees partake in midsommar
And considering normal lights out maelstrom is already brutal.
200 sniper shots in my ass
do auras stack?
I know survivalist does all the others less sure.
I tried the Lasgun a bit, am i missing something but is this thing just, meh?
I also tried the recon lasgun build and i was also left wanting compared to Plasma and Bolter
Lasgun is definitely a bit meh. Isn’t really cut out for the hectic atmosphere of the higher levels
What part felt wanting?
Crit lasgun with Ghost is excellent for popping heads in a room but i find myself getting tunnel vision too hard being focused on shooting and not the enemies flanking me in melee range lol
laughs in auto gun going BRRRRRRR
Lmao, gonna get downed? Run, don’t walk to your nearest crusher.
save my penance o heretic
deliver me unto true survivor with thine overhead
Real "People only die if they are killed" energy
omg i just realized
is havoc40 the highest difficulty because WH40k?
dipest lore
you son of a bitch you’re right
When veterans use 1 more braincell than they can usually muster:
Level 400,000 HAVOC
True 40k experience.
every shooter enemy is now replaced by a reaper and every melee unit is a rager
Helbrute as daemonghost
You mean, 40 000.
You have to melee Khorn himself to pass
Top 1% Zealots spamming bet.
400;000
The super far future of the 400th mil, there is only HAVOC
Zealot dodged first attack.
100 stuff activated on dodge:

Crit pokes, what armor.
No stealth though, runs the risk of insta smited.
For cowardice.
Demons ignore stealth tho
Its battle tactics
Joke is, they 1vs1 avatar of Khorn.
Im once 1v1 demonhost, but as veteran
Khorne dies from a heart attack from getting staggered too much 
Did i used devil claw for this or a knife i dont remember
Or kills himself cos dodge parry spam.
Actual catachan holy shit
You should dodge left rigt three times then attack
Basically how to tank as psyker, block block block quell.
Sorry, power sword main. I can't lol
Take awhile, shouting and shotgun help
Pretty much. I have a video of my Psyker just 1v1ing a DH with a Daemonsword. No nuke, just straight up tapping it until it dies lol....
But that's near unlimited stamina for you.
I wish Vet can do the same.
Psy-sparkheadstyle is OP but its fitting
What dodge? You kill or die.
yes, I found out how bad the dodge on it is.
They should buff melee on bigman tho
I hate it.
Ogryn clubs should deal 400 dmg on light and 600 on heavy attacks to feel ogryny
They're alright atm.
I feel like they just need more build diversity. Literally it's all HH and Gunlugger.
Pick Axe, Slab Shield, and that's the only melee you need. Anything else and you're an idiot.
If i dont oneshot poxes as ogryn its aint right
Huh..... lol.
Ogryn should have a perk that nullify dogs and mutans, allowing him to break dogs neck after first bite, and wrestle mutants without taking damage
That would feel bigmany
Put it in the tank tree for a talent.
Watch as everyone reeee.
Wait, isn't it just FnP?
Yea
You push the dog off of you with certain FnP talents.
I mean, i'm alrigtht with the dog pounce. My most played character is still Ogryn (Vet is getting close now). I was able to do solo damnation as an Ogryn.
It's their ability to force a position that makes them amazing!
Ah. I personally think it's just skill. Oggys are just harder to play, but insane skill can always compensate.
I just don't like playing them ever since they nerfed FNP
I don't like playing the Pickaxe too much.
But why? Everyone says it's the worst keystone already?
It was awesome before! Back before they nerfed damage resistance.
It also only ticked down when you took actual HP damage.
Now if your toughness gets so much as a love tap, FNP ticks down.
I'll prob have to find it in a second. But yea, Ogryn sucks.
Just go HH or Gunlugger.
It's what the big boy was for, go in, smack thing, buy team time to kill important stuff.
They can still do that. But don't get any other weapon other than Pickaxe, slab shield and from what i'm hearing, P-Maul.
That's boring though.
At least I can do stupid things like lvling guns on Zealot and melees on Vet.
You got so much choices to toy around.
Yea. I'm pretty unorthofox with my vet build. People think i'm crazy with Crit Chance on Power Sword already. It's awesome! x3
I mean, I'm going towards ignoring the charge up with certain choices.
Just because it keeps turning off because random backstabs.
And I can't dodge with it.
I love Power Sword so much. That, and Tac-Axe
Tac-Axe and Lasgun for Guardsman immersion.
Powersword and Plasma for sweating hard lol.
OH And another thing i dislike about #ogryn-class, there is no good Youtube Channel that focuses on Ogryn.
Everything i learned on my own or Ogrynomicon. And even then, reading is no where near as good as example and experience. Besides, Ogryns can't read!
AHHH i'm going to calm down now and brush my tooth!
Sus. You sure you didn't get some unknown alpha 'one 'ead upgrade that is better than most?
are none abhumans just normal humans or dwarven ogryns
Boltgun and chainsword. Yes. Maybe DS if you wanna be fancy commisar.
Anyone ever try to have a nice chill game with a funny build and wind up losing all faith in humanity ?
Nah. pure WALL OF MUSCLE
BIGGEST belt buckle too!
thats captain fucking price
MAN Ogryns look so badass! I LOOOOOVE EM!
I mean, is more, look at how you type. Sus.
SHH!
I see, I found out something I shouldn't have then.
thought i was in #ogryn-class for a second
seeing that hunk of pure good looks and muscle
Eh, I rather the ones with the big hearts. Looking good though.
Oh same
They'll protecc yush.

Melk is offering me a 79% damage duelling sword 
suboptimal
Other stats seem good too but 76% penetration coupled with 79% damage is making me seethe
Move that 1% please
Clearly havent seen my plasmagun
60% charge rate?
Nope, all 80% except thermal resistance
Which is 60%
BUT it's actual stats are 40% damage and 24% thermal resistance
What are ideal stats for duelling sword actually?
Is more of a joke since someone is saying you need a specific number to hit 8 shots.
But more is pointless.
dump defence
Dump cleave.
Duelling sword doesnt have defence im pretty sure
It does, the middle mark.
Wasnt't there a DS that's sort of decent at horde clear
mk2 is slashy iirc
mk2 has decent attacks
polish sabre techniques
I mean technically if you keep stabbing the enemy the horde will cease eventually 
So I'd rather dump defence in case I use it
Naw.
If you want the cleave thing, you need to dump mobility.
IDK which style is which.
If you want the 2 and keep the cleave, you need to dump mobility, I think.
Yeah, just checked.
5 is the one with def.
Defence/mobility. Just forgot which one had defence, thought it was 2 for some reason
Thanks y'all for the advice! 
From what i got the sword i see is close to optimal so imma go with him
So dump mobility for MK2, and cleave damage for MK4
Honestly, just use till you find a perfect.
Then pray hadron doesn't screw you over.
Stares at her ruining my shotgun ammo .
Hadron is nice she would never do that right
79% ammo and 61% mobility.
...right?
what?
How could Hadron screw you over?
Oh wait she doesnt determine stats anymore right
It was a perfect 80/60 before.
Was it before lock and loaded update?
well, she still does
Upgrading with her can mess it up.
It was after.
I joined when Humble choice offered Darktide/
But it's only important for psykers who want warp resistance as low as possible
So it's more of an excpetion
oh
I still haven't found a pefrect 20% warp res purgatus
Well im scared now
And yes.
That 1% means 1 less ammo in clip.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Considering it's a shotgun.
It's a big deal when you have a blessing that buffs on repeated shots.
Also had 2 boltpistols ruined.
And yes, it's a slug shottie.
It was for emergency mid range pop sniper thing. But tbh, bolt pistol does it but more usable.
Except SHE ALSO BRICKED THAT ONE.
Different way.
Woe, 3 Loner Zealots upon ye.
Grats
Well done
took me so long
maybe a weapon from the imperial navy for vet
guys, how can I pass information to Fatshark to rerun one specific veteran skin? I am talking about the red-black jacket that last time appeared in September 2023
write to santa claus
that would have about as much of an effect as anything else you try
Goddamn it, didn’t think about that. My guess is they will add more levels, probably up to 100 before they stop supporting DT.
buy my healing crystals
noooo, buy my invigorating minerals 
Buy my crystallized crushed healing chemicals formed in to round pellets
Do they accelerate at 3000 fps? 
I just need my GF and our coherency will heal us both. She also runs cleanse on Zealot as bonus.
144 fps max, screen cant refresh that fast
“The human eye can’t see past 30fps.” 
Lies.
Playing 30fps cap is a nightmare once you are used to 120+.
Okami felt like hell to play but is gud game so struggled through.
I can see the lag.
In sense.
And not even adaptive sync helped.
I’m just joking around. Having smooth high FPS will always be better than 30-60 cap FPS IMO.
60 is fine is you have a 60hz screen.
Not good if you have a 144hz.
Could be fine on a 120hz with sync.
although the human eye can definitely see >30 fps it is probably for the best if you never know
do yours funky stuff?
Cos once you do know, you can never go back.
me when I turned my shit up to 180 FPS
living in ignorant bliss is likely the best thing for us all
Probs. Some ppl are happy without things.
Is vet chat in its healing crystal phase now?
yes. come one, come all, i have the best healing crystals in town! they solve all muscle aches, head aches, heart aches, organ problems, and more!
im in the going to shoot my fucking brains out because color balance is driving me insane phase
IDK, I'm just virtually snuggling with GF atm. Waiting for Bday next year when she comes over again.
I'm more about 'pray the warp away' myself
More of a snake oil guy myself
I don't know how you lot can think any of that stuff works
What did you play it on?
I'm a gem, buy me!
Does it lock at 30? Or is it just you are used to the higher fps
Hard locked 30.
To preserve the physics.
Oh no it’s hooked to the frames. Well shit
mechanics tied to fps is funny
i played sao fatal bullet at one point and realized only after beating the game that the enemies were moving, attacking, and shooting at 2x speed than they were supposed to since it was meant to be played at 30 fps

Blame the engine
Basically Valkyrie Chronicles.
30 fps is normal.
60 is hard mode.
You take double the hits from all sources but deal normal 1x.
Due to the way they caculate how many shots you take.
At 60, it's twice.
sekrit hard mode
Weird to think that this and Helldivers 2 are built in the same engine…
tbh
after i played like over half the game like that
turning it back to 30 made it feel boring
so i just kept it at 60
If you mod to uncap... you die so fast...
It's like dooksouls, but everything is ranged and you rng dodge.
Also, I know. I played at 60fps.
I got two buttons and some pocket lint. Actually one button, this button looks kinda cool and I'm keeping it.
like dark souls with guns - ign
I hate story forced stuff though. You know which mission.
It's the dark souls of horse shooters
Hoard
I did it perfectly and killed everything, but cutscenes reeeeeeeeeeee.
Ah yes when the soldier that took out an army single-handed gets killed because otherwise the story would be only a third of the length
Close, but not exactly.
Worse when you have 4 snipers who could have counter sniped.
That was a shot in the dark, I have no idea what game you were referring to to
I’m curious, what is your solution to the impenetrable wall dudes?
Valkyria Chronicles.
The turn based anime world war 1/2 game?
It's been so many years though. So I only barely remember the story.
horse shooters 
Because of that 1 single cutscene reeeeeeeeeeee.
I'm sure one exists somewhere
The dude where you have to place the dots on the randomly generated spots in succession, the worst mandatory one is right before ninetails
im pretty sure
at least in 1
you can cheese the entire game with scout meme anyway
what would win, a dug in trench full of soldiers equipped with LMGs covered by 2 tanks
or one baker girl with a rifle

its the baker with a rifle
in case you didn't realize
Also IDK if I rather Selvaria or Jane. If you knew, you knew.
Also, the baker girl thing is legit.
She is op as all heck.
selvaria 
Spam all the ??? You want, but by gods, I know she's kinda the mc...
But you can technically solo with her.
Tanks go boom, troops go blep.
Though when I played, I was more use everyone carefully so nobody dies.
Except getting a specific someone downed to unlock another unique char.
You can rescue them before they bleed out to prevent their actual death.
i dont remember anything except the basic story beats at this point, played it ages ago
never played any of the games after either
I mostly remembered THAT ONE SCENE.
Valkyria chronicles looks fun but I don’t know where in the series to jump in
The first.
Problem is you need consoles to play most of the rest.
Since there was only 1 other port.
It's totally worth playing though.
my stuff funky
throws recaf at it
my shit caffeinated, no need to recaf 
Valkyria Chronicles in Vet Chat? Colour me impressed XD
do i go flakcara, flakiak, or flakelite for bolt pistol perks?
Don't you do elite unarmoured
Flak and unyielding with at least the blessing that causes bleed
Or elite maniac
because bolt pistol doesnt have the dps you need bleed to help with monstrosities
Flak is needed for gunner onetapping I think
i have chainsword for monstrosities
brother...
I mean, is army game. We vets, so what you expect?
what part of the pins
if youve got a problem speak, dont laugh
How do you know I’m a vet main?
I have a crippling caffeine addiction.
Immune, caffeine actually puts me to sleep though.
Chainsword is pretty bad at single target damage. You can put the bleed perk on it, but then it starts having horde issues. It’s undertuned
well, first of all, picking a melee weapon for monstrosities doesn't make much sense. Chainsword gets gimped by getting locked, and all monstrosities will throw you around that close, and you cant dodge during the lock.
Also, female psykers can just be budget Valkyries as well, I guess? More so with how moonlight greatsword now exist.
That’s unfortunate
elite maniac OR unarmored maniac
It restores my will to live
elite maniac has a harder time reaching dreg gunner bp
unarmoerd maniac has an easier time reaching dreg gunner bp but a harder time reaching rager bp
why not flakelite?
Why not unarmored flak to just kill gunners
Eh, nothing really does. I'm just counting down to when I put my other foot in the grave tbh.
&hug
After all, things are constantly going downhill anyway.
i dont know how to answer this question
flak and unyielding for bolt pistol. Flak is the most common armor type in the game, and unyielding helps with reapers, bulwarks, and monstrosities.
justify flak elite to me first lol
theres no point in taking flak if it doesnt do anything meaningful
\might as well ask "why not +2 stamina"
Should increase the scaling on the bleed procs for unyielding yeah?
a lot of stuff has flak
yes
correct
but if you kill those things in 1 shot anyway
But what does elite add
then what would be the point of overkilling them
gunners are elites
You dont oneshot dreg gunners do you?
You add stuff to meet breakpoints.
you don't, but flak does not help that lol
that's the point of elite OR unarmored
Ah thought it did
both can meet the bp
wrong gunner type
but you need different methods to do so
no idea why mine does then
Like why I have unyielding on my revolver, to 1 crit headshot reapers in heresy.
Because funny.
10% damage towards:
Bulwarks
Crushers
Reapers
Maulers
Gunners
Shotgunners
Ragers
i run elite +maniac on mine and can 1tap both gunners, both flamers, and crit 1tap ragers
with unarmored instead of elite you don't need as many boosts to do the above, but you lose the crit 1tap on ragers
But does it change shots to kill on them
in my case i need run n gun active
or skirmisher
yes i run that shit
or agile engagement

unarmored just does it straight up i think
Carapace + Elite on Rashad changes it to a 2 Shot on crusher head taps
ok so elite + what would be best?
agile engagement based
VS 4 shot
This is for the bolt pistol
you can actually just test what perks make a difference
maniac is non negotiable
Crushers count as elite?
changing it just costs dockets now
its unarmored vs elite for the 2nd option
Flak+Elite would allow for 1 taps on gunners if you’re running Prec and Superiority
you dont need flak to do this
why do you ened flak to 1tap scab gunners
they are squishy as fuck
200 less hp than dregs
Can swap it out for Unarmored but I’d rather have a more universal armor type
That’s just me
what is prec again
flak doesnt do anything except let you bodyshot maulers better (???)
Precision Strikes
Ah
universal or not it doesn't really matter when every flak target already dies in 1 shot anyway
are maulers less armoured on their upper legs?
minus maulers
Shotgunners, Ragers, Maulers
I crotch stab them
youre shooting mauler legs? XD
but i dont make it a habit of spamming shots into maulers with bistol in the first place
rager and shotgunners can be 1tapped without flak
i usually shoot them in the balls and it works
They flak in the weewee, I think.
Uhuh…
So shooting them there with a revolver is BOOM.
Puncture makes makes my frags do more funny
Must have lethal prox as well for more funni.
You sure you aren't just adding another stack?
Of course
personally, if I am running bolt pistol, I am doing it as a CQC vet, so breakpoints aren't my worry. Mulch hordes and quick swap to BP to tap the heavies or ranged with the bonus agile engagement damage
It adds more stacks, and when you combine it with lethal prox..... you do a lot of bleed
In a lot of radius
Aye I'm aware, it's how I run it on my grenadier setup. Just was worded oddly
Wonder if nades can crit
Because everything in a mile radius bleeding to death makes happy chemicals go brr
Imagine infernus on ones nade
I mean that's functionally what zealots napalm nades are
Shame that the napalm part of the tree is ass
Im talking about the bleed of theshredders and the burn of the infernus proccing at once
Double dots
Ahh right
Combine it with the brittleness on hit fpr more damages
That’s more or less what my focus target build uses, along with ps for horde clear up closes
Actually, can you get lacerate to work on inferno grenades?
I don’t think so
bolt pistol blessings, what would be the reason to use lethal prox and runngun/puncture over deadly accurate and surgical?
Since they dont hit
because deadly accurate and surgical means u might as well play revolver
That reload speed hurts me
i dont want to play revolver
Lethal prox and puncture affect your shredder nades
the advantage of bistol is superior hipfire and crowd control
i like the bolt pistol
puncture also helps in havoc
and the boosted nades
you should be playing around those
not trying to pretend its a revolver
im playing middle line vet
krak, fireteam, voc, focus
Id run frags since the nade spam of frags is better than kraks
Why kraks?
frag + WS is the best way to play bistol
but you can do what you'd like
i just cant advise you then
its a commisar cosplay
Still frags, arent that expensive to pivot off into
I can’t think of commissars having a preference in grenades
krak is fun
It's ridiculous with run&gun.
yeah
run n gun amazing in auric
sadly not that great in havoc
just because running around everywhere is now suicidal
bistol also critically doesn't get suppressed
What do you run with run&gun? I only have mine on my grenade build so I haven’t tinkered too much with that blessing
in most cases i dont think revolver cares much about suppression at the range you're shooting it at
I just use Lethal prox since I run it on Zealot, lul.
you tend not to get into gunfights as much as mixed up in melee combat with revolver builds
and quickly swap to revo just to pick something off
I basically just use my bistol on gunners
Idk I enjoy popping heads from far away with revolver. But I run the slow load one lol
Mostly to shoot and suppress things before stabby stab.
And flamers
yeah, but in that case
And take out anything important.
the suppression isnt a big deal
you can just pop into cover and back out if it really is a problem
True
its not like you're standing outside trying to hold down a stream of fire
for something like automatics and whatnot, where suppression can be annoying
I enjoy tactical reload for a reason.
"Annoying" can be such a severe understatement 
When I have an autogun in my hands I feel my inner ferrari peeker opening up
Shoot two crushers ded, reload. But only for heresy and below.
I don’t think I’ve ever used it like that. Always just pull it out, quickly line up the shot, and go back to melee or shoot something else before going back to melee
Trying to mainstay revolver rather than using it for quick burst damage seems counterproductive
if i'm being lit up by a gunner or smth i just wanna snap to and kill him with the free bullet as vet, if i'm suppressed it's annoying.
or trying to pick off bombers or something when my team is awful and let a gunline form round the corner
i just find suppression really tilting
Why else determination is impt if not going exe stance.
And then my shot gets dooked cos random backstab, lul.
also on zealot etc
That’s the one with immunity to suppression yeah?
worse on bistol
tbh
you do sway less
but you still do sway
but unlike revo you actually need to hit a headshot lol
Yeah.
Maybe it’s just due to how I play, but I never notice much difference with it on
It only happens if you get gunnered and such, I think.
Your shots get less and less accurate.
Part of why I hated the crabwalk so much, prefer constantly popping in and out of close range
But then again, I play malice where you don't insta die from being gunnered.
And if it’s a gunner line I’m typically using a grenade to scatter them
All very good points. And in all honesty I named my Psyker character Nanoha XD.
See. So totally a normal thing to discuss in vet chat. Just don't tell an actual mod.
psyker can't starlight breaker
fraudulent
has there ever been a vigilant/HH autogun skin
im tired of my gun looking like this ugly shade of blue
There was only a black one that was literally the definition of scam cause it was 400 Aquilas for well
That skin but black
Bonus points
It was in Psykers section also
You know, the gun that’s only actually very good on Veteran being in… fucking Psykers section for some reason
I mean, revolver and bolt pistol scryer's.
Tbf those are universally just good on all classes
VA is generally just very good on Veteran cause of it’s good Ammo Econ and talents that pair very well with it
i might be wrong sionce i dont play zealot
but
i feel like bistol is probably meh on zealot but idk
vet just barely skirts on by hitting the bps and can force crits and free reloads
They’re playable on Zealot and Psyker but the Maniac ADM you instantly feel
Vs like
cant imagine zealot can hit them
Veteran
and you dont benefit from lethal explosion as much either
Do you know about the feature I’m shocked they still haven’t fixed
Lethal Prox is like a lukewarm blessing on every class besides
Veteran
Lethal Prox + Shredder Frags is pretty fucking insane
Well about to fly off for 2 weeks or 3.
Time to kiss Havoc rank 40 goodbye from decay XD
You rank 37 when back, I guess.
you can just throw on the title and join a 40 anyway
True on both counts
Close range explosions can help
You can't if not touching middle line stuff from what I know. Unless you do Martyrdom stuff, maybe.
Things my Vet's BP 1 shot is a 2 shot on Zealot.
I'm enjoying the bistol frag life, finally got a better pistol statwise
Watch Our Message To The Darktide Community. and millions of other Warhammer 40,000: Darktide videos captured using Medal.
And they are exactly the same.
Fucking path got me to do this ages ago
Still hasn’t been fixed, also that’s without GT
Forgot to slap that on
I can instantly tell it’s old by seeing how my rank is super low vs what it is now lmao
Welcome to the bolt pistol fanclub
Brunt was just pretending they don't exist for awhile. Imagine getting gaslit by an Ogryn.
But finally got it set up.
Do not reveal the secrets. I don’t want it patched
I probably need to revise the talent tree though. Rashad + bistol with frags/VOC.
I run Bolt Pistol, P Sword and Frags. Also VoC. Using Middle keystone as recommended but that being said, B Pistol could work with Specialist as well I think (due to smaller mag size)
Power sword would probably be easier on the talent points but I have a couple of other builds using it so would like to stick to the rashad probably. Specialist seems nice for the reload I agree.
Knife might be a better mate but I suck with it 😄
They’ve known about it for ages
They patched ZEALOTS CRUSHER GIMMICK
Over this
Lmao
Eh?
LP used to increase the stagger radius of Activation
On Crusher
It got patched
LP Shredders have still been untouched
i have thought about running this build in 40 
havent played anything except recon because im not sure if im overdoing it on the nades if i try this
lmao
Looks pretty solid, not that you need my opinion 😄
Once you've beaten it and gotten TS why not try stuff, after all?
Huh weird
I doubt it would be bad enough to be troll tier!
Tbf they classify using recon as trolling yet when you run like HH paired with Surv and Shocktrooper you can let everyone else actually get ammo on H40
ILAS is shockingly viable in high havocs also
Pubs in havoc think anything that isn’t voc focus target recon is trolling
Reread my comment lol
Oh nvm
i meant galeo
They forget you can make it the polar opposite
I’m a dumb
ive not heard anyone complain about me bringing recon but idk
its the least ammo hungry out of the 4-ish options you have
All I’ve seen is demanding recon tbh
Had a handful so I just swap to the other vacuum Plasma and they don’t complain
Plasma eats up ammo tho
It’s weird
the 40 i had yesterday
Yeah you have to literally abuse Collaterals and use it only when it’s needed
I've not see anyone complaining about bringing anything in my havoc games
The closest I saw was I was bring smokes and the zealotnsaid "smokes? We have 2 bubbles" and I went "Good point" and swapped
yea i havent heard complaints
even when i brought dual barrel shotgun to a 25
but i think thats just my TRUE SURVIVOR RANK 40 intimidation
Tbf 25 you can get away with a lot
because that's absolutely trolling
yea thats why i did it
lol
bad gun though
no other way to slice it
fun as heck but bad
35+ is when you start needing to use more serious things
DB is limited to a very certain build to be incredibly strong
Outside of that it’s lukewarm
i dont think there's any build where u would not just be better off using a bistol or revolver
since it works exactly on one build alone and that's WS ones
but even then you have a gun that manages to be worse against armor compared to both of them but also has 0 range
Reminder that Psyker makes it work better
Fucking wild to me I’ll be honest
True Aim Manstopper Combustion with Scriers nuking everything 30 meters in front of you
Tbf double barrel does have a lot of bleed potential
Oh. Dunno. Never tried crushers lul.
oh man, they fixed that?
Is it really trolling if you can actually hard carry with it?
Being all honest here.
im not good enough to solo clutch with a dbs against a gunner line
Well, assuming you have 2 other equally skill players.
And you are carrying some malice player that is trying to basically not go double digit deaths.
So 3x 40 on 25.
a lot of players i've seen playing havoc 25s atm are either not great or still acclimatising to the difficulty
I mean, 20 was a nightmare already.
And I had 2x 40 and someone who plays auric damn.
doesnt really get too hard until 35 really
it's shown me some weaknesses in my play, clutching for ex feels harder when I have to care about shooters instead of basically being able to practically ignore them while i try and kite the mixed horde or smth
ex?
Example, I presume
that makes sense 
I rly like havoc 40 though
Would continue playing it for fun
And have been
Just hard to find games sometimes
I've taken low 30s in just for fun 
What is fun about it?
Actually butt clenching
I can't imagine 35-40 is that much different
Look at the game scoreboard I posted lol
6 rescues on 2 different ppl
I think we went down to 2 or 3 ppl standing around with a sliver of hp and a ton of corruption most of the game
Since the zealot forgot beacon in a blight game 
This was my true survivor run, and yes I did die but not go down 
Mars was void blast staff, I was purg
Did they ever fix suicide not counting as a death?
Nope.
You can still do on overwatch doing the funni cheese.
No idea, but I got bonked by a crusher OH that I didn't hear. And it 1 shot me.
what Im hearing is, wait for the sweats to start duoing havoc 40
Then leech by commiting suicide
start? They've been doing it, but really, its not that sweaty. Unless you think teamplay is incredibly hard for you.
did you know you can die while doing exemplar/survivor achievement if you are last down because you don't usually die in the mission before it ends
if they duo, wouldn't they just duo with two bots that die insta?
Was a joke
Not a joke
People out there still don't know how to look at a ping
doesnt matter what we think if the rest of the team will drag you down to their level of unpreparedness and lack of awareness
I need to get better with melee before doing higher havoks (I struggle with poxwalker hordes more than specialists)
and clutching
can you get the mod that shows you number of remaining dodges. most hordes are about dodge/stam management and knowing your wep's combos.
Already using it
I know the combos and use them, but one mistake and 70% of my hp is gone
Just need to get more used to it
do mods really help that much?
it's less efficient dps but you can try pushing more often because it syncs up the horde attacks and makes it easier to dodge
but yeah, it's just practice really
i've been playing vanilla
it makes it a lot easier to know how many effective dodges you have left, which is really vital info imo when you're learning and which I am still puzzled why it's not in the base game
yes ive seen youtubers with these mods all over their screens
its really a wonder why theyre not in the base game
my friends were like "oh you're much better at the game" as soon as I got the mod and realized I was allowed to dodge basically all the time
and then it shows you when you're out of effective dodges so you can learn the kinda cadence where you need to push or something and chill to recover dodges
nexus mods?
Yeah it helps especially when the dodge counts change
separate your dodge and jump button too (i have yet to do that and I die/down/take lots of damage) 
think i'll start using mods
i have backwards dodge when not moving option accepted
yeah, the dodge counts also change between weps and dodgeslides count as more etc, so it's just really a lot nicer qol for the game to just tell you
but even then, that setting is kinda weird
yee, I have 33 mods installed lmao
I never do dodge slides
like must haves?
Hub Hot keys
Health Bars
NumericUI
Crosshair remap
Might be part of my issues
True level
NumericUI
Chatblock
Guaranteed weapon swap
Guaranteed ability activation
you idealy want the second last version of hub hotkeys
cos the last one removes the hotkey for inventory while in psyk
which was annoying
I need to check those guarenteed mods out, I had super fucky swapping in Havoc last night
Even if they're not must-haves, I'd like to hear about these mods yall use
yeah I rarely get weapon swap issues with those
sometimes the server still drops the packets or something and what can you do
I assume if you guys are using them, they're good enough to install
So useful
but it removed a lot of the fuckiness
What does guaranteed do?
What does the crosshair remap do?
Fix the buggy weapon swapping?
it basically does some scripting or something to queue up weapon swaps/anims that would otherwise be cancelled because you're in the middle of an anim or something, I think
it doesn't fix the server straight up dropping the packet
the mod desc tells you
Reddit shitters will bitch and moan about healthbars, but if that mod ever got banned, id probably quit playing. My monkey brain likes to see the bar go down. 
Im running red weapons at home for aesthetic reasons, true level, numeric ui
Stop accidental jumps
And the objectives markers
That one is great too
Considering picking up the martyr skull helper
is that for when youre trying to dodge?
Yeah
its good when youre trying to get them, but sometimes it spams the message in chat
Prevents you from jumping when you accidentally press the dodge+jump keybind too quickly. Works on keyboard and controller.If you are having trouble getting the mod to work, try updating y
I.... have like 6 left
which is annoying
martyr's skull helper keeps telling me i have skulls to get but i don't
I need to do chasm station
i was hoping to pick it up to help randoms get skulls
but it just spams me going "skull available" while i'm in the hub which is disappointing
What penance is also a goated mod. Tells you what penances you are working towards on each mission
You mean the, I hit the swap button, but my weapon did not swap so I now wasted 3 bullets into the floor/wall?
Is there an equivalent for when the game decides you wanted to crouch when you slide out of a sprint?
For some reason this game doesn't allow player to swap weapon in some frame of many animations, this mod is my attempt at addressing it.
Once you hit the swap key, this mod will make sure to swap weapon for you as soon as it ready to be swap as it possibly can. So in another word there will be delayed as long as whatever that swap-preventing animation last. So no more spamming weapon swap key.
Bro.. More I look at these mods, more I think they should have been in the game
It's hurts so much since 3 revolver shots lmao.
Yup, the scoreboard mode lets you see how well you are doing
Ouch indeed lol
base scoreboard mod is kind of broken btw in its damage numbers, use ovenproof's scoreboard plugin or powerdi
the baseline calculates overkill wrong if you one shot enemies, I think
me too 
@vestal widget alright sounds good, ovenproof
I don't thinknso? Better to ask the modding discord I fear
"which book" is what I was thinking of.
Legitimately the worst, because it arrests all momentum and I get shot
- Inspect allies from party finder
- Inspect allies from social screen (I guess you can use it to bully, but it's useful when I'm trying to get my newbie friend to do a build)
- Show me real weapon stats (set the bar to max at 80, instead of 100 which is not reachable)
- MIssion brief - shows mission briefing while in loading bcuz I qp'ed and didn't pay attention to what mission)
- ItemSorting - adds lots of way to sort my stupid gigantic inventory
- Ration Pack - shows number of ammo charges left
- Disable screen effect - (from 1wound filter)
- Quicklook card for inventory
- Reject (havoc) invites while in mission
added to my list
Item sorting borked my game so I stopped using it. I would get tons of out of memory issues with it.
Red weapons at home
Makes 500 power weapons easier to differentiate
Should I avoid Item Sorting?
I haven't had issues, but you can try it with that caveat and see.
doesnt hurt to try
Thought numeric ui already had the ammo bag piece
Will try it out
It's for the ammo crate sorry
(I never use ammo crates so am not sure)
https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kdarktide/mods/447
This is goated IMO. But also pretty cheaty.
If it's not banned
Not cheaty

Joking aside
From the looks of the thumbnail and title
I mean, I can set all resources to show on my screen even through walls ect
Oh, also, killfeed improvements is good (it stacks up the "[name] killed [special/elite type] xN" messages instead of flooding the announcement panel whenever someone kills 10 shotgunners
kill tracker is the most unnecessary mod but it is really satisfying to RP kharn and see number go up
I CAN PING SCRIPTS THROUGH WALLS AND MY TEAMMATES CAN SEE THE PING 
I luv me kill tracker, simple as
That's diabolically OP
I’m not a big fan of Killfeed improvement
I like seeing a bunch of killfeeds instead of condensed
What are the best blessings for a duelling sword?
Precognition

I see this one called
Recoil Fix
Any thoughts?
I have the most trouble with recoil jittering while using the Boltgun
May or may not be cheats
I'll steer clear of it
it says it fixes recoil jitter from changing movement states, which is annoying
it's super noticeable on the db sometimes
Ah that ones fine then
yeah just read the desc
the game just grabs my screen and flips it like 90 degrees
Was confusing it with another mod
seems different from the no recoil mod you mentioned
whats a great power sword build for horde clearing?
That is basically aimhacks
Yeah lol
I'm looking for GUI stuff
All the mods you guys compiled for me I'm checking out rn
I tried it out, doesnt seem to do much. Id pass
That only works in psykarium and is visual only in game.
other things that are useful:
- true level is an okay proxy for seeing roughly how experienced a player is + you get to see number go up
- peril gauge's peril gauge is much nicer than vanilla's
- direct to hadron lets you access craft menu from inventory, another thing that the game should have by default
- show insignias shows insignias in mission, meaningless but mildly nice?
- prefer auric lets you set the default mission screen as aurics
- for the emperor gives you more things you can tag and reply (yes/no/etc) on your comms shout out thingy
- custom hud lets you move your hud elements around
Also i wanted to ask - what are the best blessings for the plasmagun?
I saw the crit one in a lot of builds but my friend said it's not good for it apparently?
true level is beyond helpful. Lets me give context on why someone may be doing poorly or not.
"don't judge a book by its cover"
Then sees a level 700 vet constantly running off and dying
@tall torrent What do you like for Rashad+Bolt Pistol talentwise?

Many such cases
I don't need to run off to die, I can do it just fine right where I am!
Lmao

Why die tired afterall
getting downed by your team is so much better than having to run to you and get you up
everyone dies, even the best players, shit happens
Do any of the infantry lasguns have cleave similar to the recon 14?
is the recon the one with the most damage? I don't know, but doesn't sound familiar.
Lowest fire rate recon.
Are u playing havoc
No, or just low levels
Drat.
The middle and high damage recon las guns can mow through hordes pretty good, but WHY are you shooting through hordes? 
( i do it too, cause fun)
Gimme a sec I can show you this funny build I run for that exact combo
Magdumping any bolter weapon into a horde is like cocaine level of dopamine
Sometimes the horde is between me and what I want to shoot.
wall of rages or crushers melted in seconds, straight into my vein.
Not sure about infantry lasguns, but lucius has a blessing for 40 cleave on weakspot hits
Recon 14 solves that issue.
Works janky in my experience though but even basic lucius has some pen
That blessing’s tooltip is wrong
I KNEW something was up with it
What does it actually do?
THISSS 
(I will not have ammo for the rest of the mission)
Thank you! I was close but I don't know the math of a few of those nodes, still building via osmosis so far.

I do like the grenade mania!
Yea that’s kinda the point of it
shift + windows button + s
Oh that's a way different effect holy shit
Thanks for showing that!
No wonder i wasnt seeing hordes explode, i was just adding like 1 to my pen
Chicken came out looking like a gift from on high
you son of a bitch I just woke up and you made me hungry
Lmao my apologies
no worries brother
The screen effect NEEDS to be an accessiblity feature. IDK why they didn't add it as such. I basically can't see shit when it's on.
How did you cook it? 
Two passes through air fryer, first pass with personal seasoning mix and lemon juice after tenderizing, the next pass coated in honey
Show remaining dodges - shows available effective dodges in a stamina bar style widget
Show crit chance - shows current crit chance (easier to visualize than reciprocity stacks)
Creature spawner - allows you to practice against enemies in meat grinder
Time and temp? Never cooked chicken in my air fryer before
350 11 mins for first pass, let rest for about a minute, then flip as you coat with honey and do another 11 mins at 350
@tall torrent W, thanks I'll check these out as well if I havent already
Depends, what do you want to do?
id like to focus on ranged battle for now
Thats not very specific, like are there any specific weapons you want to try?
And specific talents you are interested in
Or even any keystone you want to use.
im not yet well versed in the vet playstyle, just wanted to know if theres any builds for the skill tree that people recommend :D
So you just want the boring meta?
I mean a focus target spec works with pretty much anything
Vet can play in several ways depending on weapon choice
And keystones
Or lack of.
Yeah or lack thereof
Heh. Is the only class you can really skip keystones on.
i see i see!
guess i best find myself a weapon fav first then
Yup, especially if you are levelling
You ahould just try put the different weapons and see what you like
Also try the melees.
if you find some melee you like the feel of on vet, you can also find a gun to cover it. Then go weapon specialist build if they are fast swap enough.
Double barrel shotgun and shovel supremacy
