with the right build, yeah
on vet you can just shoot into crowds if you critstack since you are absurdly ammo efficient
If so then what should I compensate for with my melee?
I think the most popular one is using Inferno blessing
for my crowd control recon build I use the rashad / dueling sword to deal with crushers up close
and for bulwarks too
depends what your build doesn't handle great
main choices are whether you want the fastest firing one and take onslaught or infernus blessing (or both)
or one of the other ones (I forget the names now because fatshark changed all the names)
for my other recon build w/ onslaught (crusher / boss-focus build), I have a crowd control melee like shovel
you don't want to pay onslaught tax and you're going to take deathspitter instead of infernus
or you wanna play with deadshot memes or something
deadshot is quite fun on the recon
Deadshot deletes your stamina bar
combine that with target down on the focus target keystone, you can replenish stamina as you're firing
depends how well you chain focus target and also when you unads
but the fun of those builds is kinda having to do active stamina management if that makes sense
Which build then?
you go focus target, deadshot, shock trooper, probably duck and dive, deadshot, at least one stamina delay node
and 3 stamina curios
I can share you my crowd control build, just need a second to copy it over to the gameslantern build editor
you might be able to go tunnel vision too but i haven't tried that, it's a while since I played deadshot memes
Can't believe I 1shot a Reaper with Plasma Gun
How well do you think a darktide vet would match up against a kasrkin?
here's mine, feel free to make changes to suit your playstyle https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9dc56ab9-1734-459c-8b28-6724e02024bf/crowd-control-recon
I like going for headhunter, but dumdum is also good
I play a different build than this but this is an alright build for onslaught build; dumdum infernus flak crit
this one gets crit from reciprocity, 5% crit node and 5% crit perk
onslaught 🤮
onslaught costs 3 points that you could put elsewhere (e.g. into grabbing desperado and the 10% attack speed node)
yeah
if you run a decent-ish anti carapace weapon I don't think you really need to use onslaught
(it takes a bit long to kill a crusher pack with onslaught compared to just hitting them with a rashad or ds4)
This one has better melee hybridisation, a flak/unarmoured rashad one shots bruisers on first hit with this iirc
(it also has bring it down because I use it on monstrous elites/that slug mode from the last event/etc type missions; I don't think that's strictly necessary and you could just grab CQKZ or smth)
oh wait oops that doesn't have the 5% crit node, I think I grabbed that instead of stamina. although you can easily drop bring it down for stamina node or w/e else
Doesn’t need flak or unarmored, just a matter of headtaker stacks
i wanna kill brusiers on the first hit when i have no stacks tho, feels bad every time I need to hit them twice
but you're right that for average use it doesn't really matter so maybe you everyone else should just take carapace
i thank god everyday veteran chat is the most sane out of the other classes
also those mods you guys hooked me up with are doing wonders
It's great, though I may lose my sanity when I work on my alts eventually. 😄
I wish you luck in the Zealot chat
but then again we had a whole LN/Manga/Anime discussion in vet chat last night
which weapons are good beside dsword,psword, caxe and cblade
Why does the Plasma Gun feel so weak?
Have you got the right build for it?
Should shred
Dunno
It's like
Wanna give me an example?
a very build centered gun or something apparently
dunno i only used it for a short while
but it should shred if you use it properly
i mean if you want i can find a good build video for it
that is a long ass link
sec
@red laurel this should help
whats a tanner
content creator universally hated by anyone actually knowledgable about the game
oh him yeah
He's hated?
but he does good builds by all means
nah
I saw his video talking about how overpowered DS4 on psyker is while killing a pogryn with 30 stacks of DD
I closed it instantly
I saw a couple of his videos before, they weren't this bad, but he YAPS SO MUCH
CONSTANT YAPPING
it's hard to make a good/credible DT build when he's prob THE clinical example of the dunning kruger effect 
like half the time he's right
but then the problem is, he just assume he's right the rest of the time too
and he's so confident about it
that people go along with it
im reading his comments rn
and then come here and spout bullshit they learned from a tanner video
and then we have this discussion all over again
everyones going on about redemption arc and calmer tanner
it's an endless loop
i think he's getting better
hope you arent trying to imply anything about me lol
Any of ya'll use Assault Chainsword?
nah i've seen way worse
I just removed him from my recommendations after I saw him saying DS4 IS OP ON PSYKER while this idiot has almost 30 dd stacks. Like, no shit, any weapon will shred with almost 30 dd stacks, excpet in real games YOU NEVER take +15 max stacks, you take +6 seconds
alr
in my defense i joined literally
2 minutes ago
the tanner build you posted isn't awful at least
eh
thing is on the games lantern website i'd prefer to use it
but the lack of people voting on whats good and whats shit kinda wards me off
it's perfectly fine, just not the attuned metaslave build i posted 
well games lantern builds tend to be universally shit anyway
Just ask here if you need a build
people are mostly competent
There are also guides in the pins
well i am currently going for one of his noob builds for people shit at the game
want me to post the link
Probably look there first
going for this rn
since i like my recon lasguns and i really wanna try out the dueling sword
baaasicaly most gameslantern builds are kinda bad
asking on here is probably better most of the time
Nah, he got worse
haters gonna hate lol
i mean i think i'd be best following his build thingy im using FOR NOW and then kinda expand and improve it as my own knowledge grows
tell me too much shit in such a short span of time i'm gonna do a psyker
recon build with no onslaught
Why even
onslaught is shit anyway
used to be bad, tried to get better, ended up becoming worse in almost every aspect
Is there a point?
i'm gonna choose to remain blissfully ignorant lol
alr im gonna go do an operation
the neverending crusade against onslaught
yall enjoy the onslaught argument
onslaught is a bad talent, but with recon which has insane rof is should be good, right?
got 68 hours darktide time but i've never complected a mission above level 3 lol
Was it changed?
besides them patching out how DOT stacked it, it's not been changed
Wasn't onslaught able to stack brittleness on multiple enemies?
"I'm going to be a better person."
-tries-
"Omg why isn't everyone kissing my feet for being better."
many such cases
ohy hey probably shouldnt ask in here
but why did i randomly just get 3.5k plasteel
event?
also also why does the catachan sword blade look like a fucking pencil sharpner
event probably
the major problem with onslaught for me is that crushers are an endangered species and onslaught doesn't kill them remotely fast enough
or is the event over
yeah and it's just a waste of ammo usually, and the talent point cost is insane
I still like onslaught for dealing with crushers and bosses
Can't say it's complete dogshit
i just go tthe rweard today so prolly noty
whats the event anyway
I've played it before and it is fun but half the time i forget i have it
I am going for the reciprocity anyway and talents on the way to onslaught are good
and just use my melee on the crushers
havoc / helping < lvl 30 players
Just do a 5 
no
lemme get to level 11 first
want my build guns
alr im in oepration
bug yall later
... I assume they have a bunch of chars and also some idle time; i don;'t actually know what the level gain is for low levels
no, never been able to
is that bad
you could also just take attack speed there, or take rending strikes + crit node or a bunch of other things tho
I mean do you have any chars to 30?
on most builds you're not going far right is the thing
it only matters for crushers
boss dps value from onslaught depends on your weapon being inherently bad vs unyielding
well, it's a specifically mk XII build
I thought of onslaught as not worth on any other build anyways
and not having trench fighter really really really hurts your melee options
i'd rather just take a stronger melee and deal with crushers
mano e mano
I take rashad, it's been enough
rashad is pretty painful without melee speed
playable tho since it's still rashad
I barely use melee anyway
im on a team of
I use a bunch of melee weapons in this build
buddy ur in malice, calm down
rude
but they're all horrible at the game 😭
welcome to psyker gameplay
fair
yea, learn to fight everything in the game by urself
they just have to press two buttons, and they tend to be the worst players in the game
im level 9.
as soon as u understand that u'll play better
next to glugger ogryns
tf you want me to do in aujric lmfao
usually
(i'm the exception)
I switched to damnation at like level 12 when creating my 3rd and 4th character
level 15
It was tough but possible
i've queued into auric with zero talents spent
i will try t hat
same
very fun when I hit infiltrate and instead went into volley fire and got trappered
wait is damnation 4 or 5
5
on overwatch sucks
i will not be doing that
and my 4th character I was playing auric damnation by level 20-25
but the ppl doing that have probably a lot more hours than u
yes
anyway, try damnation at least, don't care what others will think if you aren't good enough
yeah i found it
i wouldn't go past 2 difficulty
went on 3
oh t his is fun
and i iamgine it'll be the case on 5
If it's still too difficult, just switch back to 3 or 4
just need to torture myself a little more lol
It's not a problem
i just got dropped straight into 3 maelstroms, 4s and 5s with a 3 stack of friends as a new player so it took me weeks to figure out the "you are about to be hit" noise because it was playing more or less constantly and my brain tuned it out
When I first played darktide on release, I instantly knew what this noise was
wait theres a noise ?
yeah, there's a like whooshing noise
you can find videos of it on youtube if you want, let me see if i can find it in my chat history
There is also a noise when you are about to get hit from behind in vermintide, but it's so quite I still have no idea what it actually sounds like
i have 3 characters at like 25-28 and i didnt know this
You should eventually do it
Once you're max level
Hear this noise = press shift
or whatever the dodge button is, I don't remember defaults
thats gonna help with "on overwatch" penance so much
To put it into consideration FS certainly balances the game for damnation
To only play 4 is to experience a quarter of the content
Is there a recommended melee for a grenade focused et in havoc? Is it worth picking up skullcrusher on something?
i think it makes the new player experience kind of horrible because you get like 5 specials a mission maybe, and hordes are very thin
so ppl don't really get what makes the game fun at all
Well yeah not for balancing though

Lower difficulty when
2 should be a bit harder to be a smoother jump up I think, heresy could also stand to be maybe a bit easier but idk
The game is easier
I think they found their own reasons why the game is fun if they are playing for hundreds of hours on malice
And mechanics aren't even found in lower diff
Yeah
I just find it like
If you have that many hours it will just kinda help to try
that's fair. I just really enjoy highest difficulty and i wish other people would discover it and find it fun too, but the game doesn't do a good job of teaching you the jump up in difficulty
Maybe they did
in earlier difficulties
ah, I never played vt2
I'm playing champion to legend with some friends
So they don't care and are just staying on comfortable difficulties
i feel like i should sometime
And champ to legend is ALOT harder
Darktide is already abit easier to learn because of toughness
Press Enter
cannot nag at my psykers to stop running away
Or Esc
you are in malice and you have 3 psykers
You gotta
literally all you have to do is kill strays that might boop a psyker and they will omega super obliterate anything else that comes close
Calm down
Until you can carry them you can't talk about how bad they are because they're learning
you're a babysitter keeping three superweapons safe
BREATH
unless there's literally no one with a decent staff weapon and/or assail in which case rip
On a real note
Restart your game afterwards
Fixes the chat bug
Most if not all
I couldn't open chat for like 2 missions lol
lol ok, thx
No probs
seriously every mission I've been on with 3 psykers, as long as the last person is the adult in the room keeping threats away from the psyker that survive the warpstorms wrecking everything
it literally becomes the easiest mission ever
yeah we're getting better
Finally got the title . I’m glad it’s over.
got a hellbore on me rn
my dream armor tbh
the helmet is so cool
Yeah I like it . It’s currently my favorite.
yeah so your job is to, again. stab infected that get through the maelstrom with your bayonet. shoot specials in the head. shoot gunners first(always), then ragers probably, then ranged soldiers
even unskilled psykers do crazy amounts of damage as long as they edge their peril, but tends to miss an enemy or two because their stuff tends to be "to whom it may concern"
im aware
i used it for the first 20 hours when i played vet
the bayonet is disgustingly OP when it comes to headshot stabs
lmfao
(ok so like... scrier's gaze melee psykers do exist and especially with the new two handed force greatsword can hold their own)
(but also i'm guessing these are all baby ranged psykers because that's basically what they are without very good melee mechanics that tend to lead you to diving into large groups which they are NOT doing :p)
ye
it existed even before fgs lol
scriers illisi was a lot more painful before crack of bone tho
but most psyker players just like to pretend they don't have a melee weapon
yay
because eventually they'll just annihilate everything by shitting out warp magicks in the general direction of enemies
i did an exorcist illisi meme build before the rework
sometimes even they'll help you in the process because they took bubble shield 😄
i've
never had a psyker deploy a bubble shield in a helpful way lmfao
one of them placed on the edge of a railing on that train mission where everyone kept fucking falling 😭
look bubble shields are literally just a zone of no gunnery fuckery
heck, afaik even if they get into the shield itself, I think the bubble shield just... deletes projectiles fired inside of it? Without even draining the shield health?
yes
(which means that technically the best bubble shield is on the enemies)
I bubble in aurics mostly to deny trappers/flamers or to thunderdome bon, or to get a free save of the newbies with KD
a bad habit i am slowly breaking in havocs
oh right also with newbies you can just do like... voice of command, the extra toughness thing, and then the talent that gives part of your toughness regen to your allies lol
voc is also just really good in general when you're learning, you get a free do-over of a mistake
or do i have to get lucky with the armory guy
you need mastery to improve it to max
i need to finish the penance for that
the armour guy sells you weapons based on your current level
so weps you buy now start with low stats
later will start with higher stats
you tbh want 60% mobility but you can just stab people with a good enough sword to get mastery while checking brunt
my scion is missing the shirt
but if you wanna use a duelling sword
don't ppl dump cleave dmg
I guess it might affect stuff at low level
theres a pretty good one in brunt rn
when you have like a total of 10 stats
you want one with a maximum of 80/80/80/80/60 ideally
it's silly. you have like permanent uptime on voice of command(as long as you don't get the revive talent which is a trap). you, basically, keep everyone at orange toughness. forever
that's in high diff, not possible in malice but you don't need that high uptime in malice either
if their toughness ever breaks for any reason, just voice of command and it's back to overfull lol
i guess if you have a shock trooper gauntlet in malice maybe
70/71/80/80/79 is as good as im getitng rn lol
you can do better; the way ppl do it is by getting a lot of dockets
and then spamming brutn's armoury
for greys
plus you likely have other toughness restoring stuff so they're basically literally invincible(or close to it) as long as you just... keep killing stuff. because if they're at full toughness, they will never take health damage from melee
yeah i really like the skill
(except crushers I guess)
im looking forwards to getting it
until they get a 80/80/80/80/60 with the dump stat in the thing they don't want
bro i just
left the armory and dukane just went really disappointedly "i see"
am i about to get executed
oh yeah also quick veteran tip: the +40% weakspot damage in the left tree is like basically a must have for almost every build, you want it eventually
yellow toughness doesn't let crusher damage bleed through
or poxburster
or sniper
yellow toughness OP especially because you can keep restoring that toughness
its in teh build list dw
did you know that voice of command makes ogryns really happy because they can trivially keep orange toughness with their chained hit toughness blessing c:
the first ability on the other hand tends to be more... offensive because it lets you basically trivialize encounters that are just THIRTY FUCKING GUNNERS
cause you can just mow them down while the suppression immunity and suppression you're dealing out basically renders them a nonthreat lol
yeah
it staggers stuff
so ragers
crushers and maulers doing overheads
if you get a facestab it staggers mutants
iirc
oh shit yeah
also i think basically everything can be canceled into it so it's a good finishing move
all my homies hate ragers
ds4 is very safe vs ragers since you have good dodges and the special
so you can heavy stab and then immediately special stab for a quick doublepoke
also yeah i recall it has like ludicrous dodge range for some reason 
(it's literally called the ninjafencer in the code.)
duel = quick and shit
i dunno
(also the pose for it is badass and you swing it onehanded while your other hand is behind the back)
peak
thats why i need that fancy black armor
so i can be a lucifer black or something
i think the DS4 has the fancier moves too where everything is a swipe of some sort, instead of more conventional sweeps and pokes
you can get extra movespeed by doing light slashes and sliding right after
(knives do something similar but with heavies)
it's how knife and ds4 players zoom around
yeah some weapons have like... really wonky movement speed boosts and penalties
although they also get good base movespeed
light weapons tend to have very fast movement, like 1.5 times normal speed or more, during the start of an attack
and then slow down like other weapons after the hit
that's why they tend to have 'floaty' movement where you can yeet to the side to dodge a crusher attack while stabbing or the like
(same with the psyker force greatsword lol)
awesomesauce
alr i've got
1/2 of my build weapons
recon i do a 4 difficulty for the memes?
i would not recommend 4+ until you are, at the very least, confident that you can hold a single flank yourself of trash enemies
and not let a single one through
Someone who looks like Asmongold
unarmored or infected enemies, sometimes the naked bois with flak helmets
easier
also, preferably able to handle a few ragers thrown in as well(armored ragers and maulers are optional)
i find the flak guys easier to parry sometimes
yeah i'v egot the dueling sword now should be easy
you were right about that staggering stuff
you also generally want to be able to handle a flank of 'trash' ranged enemies, basically any number of ranged enemies that cannot be tagged along with like maybe 3 gunners
also a solo crusher
They have a little bit slower attack speed iirc
Dreg ragers used to be a lot faster, now they’re similar speed
but keep in mind difficulty 4 quickplay will have some..... fun teammates
Like u? 🤔
go into detail

yeah
i mean i find it
you should basically have no trouble dealing with crushers or even maulers with any weapon that has a stab attack tbh
tons of shtiters level 1 and 2 (duh)
i don't think I've ever seen someone melee a poxburster out of heresy
How about just learning to solo the entire game 
Dw auric still has bad players expecting free carries
honestly i find quickplay 4 tends to be worse than 5 for some reason >.>
hey in yalls opinion rq
Heresy is the difficulty for people that aren’t good enough for damnation but think they’re too good for malice
if someone dumbass teammate wanders off into fucking narnia after being told not to and gets dogged
do i leave him to die
yes
I know what will fix quickplay
ya
okay thats what i've been doing so
good thing i've been going right somewhere lmfao
laugh at them say absolutely fucking nothing because they might just be new and you don't want to tilt them
If you’re close enough (<20m), get him up
If you’re too far, don’t bother
I assume in narnia means too far away
you can get 50k damage in sedition

at some point, the only thing that can save them is ogryn throwing a mini nuke at them to clear the room, the next room, and basically any breathing enemy within the game :v
sir yes sir
guys how do I reload my gun?
cards on the table, I may have speedrun basic training
the R key
thankyou sah
you don't, pull out your sword and stab the enemy
too late i'm currently using movement tech to dive all over the place like in call of duty
although seriously did i mention how important holding a flank is
imagine if auric had sedition, vent purge sedition
because I have gotten several teammates in a row on damnation that could not do that
with snipers?
yeah it would be funny
montrosities vent purge sedition
a mod that replaces every boss with horus
and do you know how hard it is to chew through the endless gunners, ranged enemies, and specialists while also having to deal with trash infected that gets through the veteran getting downed trying to kill 3 of them?
So blood rage vision 
usually quite easy
yes
actually since we're on the subject
why not ALL enemies be horus
lmao
literally all you have to do is move left and right, spamming push block to keep them away
like that'd be a lot of tiny horuses tho
Why not all npcs be Horus
You’d think player characters never got to know what Horus even look like given it’s the imperium
that's it, that's the game, you won darktide except for anything not trash
Fab is shit posting
thats why i said "it'd be funny" not "it'd be lore accurate"
What about alpharius?
checkmate
Alpharius could be ANY one of us
i want to just take newbies, stuff them full of gear good at horde clearing, and just have them yeet themselves into the ONE. SINGLE. LANE. trash enemies come from. to never let a single one through while i can deal with everything else
would NOT be funny
would
ogryns trading all their weapons and armour for a rock
peak
please god i don't care that veteran is good at ranged, just have a goddamn melee weapon with horizontal or even diagonal attacks that can just keep infested/unarmored enemies away, forever
we do dont we
the uhh
dueling sword and chainsword
and the powersword if its that time of year
no sorry i will pick the combat knife because its cool 
We do not live in a world where chainsword is good on veteran unfortunately
heavy sword too.
also heck even the knife can do it
(not well, but it can do it)
Don't tell that to Fatshark 
so what do you think should be my next mastery set, thunderhammer heavy las, or cleaver twin link stubber
honestly i think every weapon can do it because every weapon has a goddamn push attack
Ogryn chainsword when
Chainsword could be good if it had like twice the rev heavy attack damage, twice the single target damage without rev attack and twice the stagger so it could break rager combo
one of the smaller duty ones ofc
Fatshark add this emoji
we already have one, its called the frag grenade
the problem si that they'd break it
the frag grenade is supposed to be broken however.
The achlys heavy stubber is basically a bolt rifle without the bolt go boom part
i mean for the shit space marines go through
finally giving a heavy bolter to the ogryn class only for them to be too stupid to use it so it fills the melee slot
i really doubt thgey'd manage to
Waiting for my hellgun
LMAO THAT IS ACTUALLY PEAK
@fatshark take notes
just borrow it from the scab gunners
a hellgun would would if the trigger mechanism is literally just like... the ogryn pulling a lever on the side of it to spew out hot flaming death
“Machine spirit tainted by heresy and corruption” or smth
the omnissiah can redeem
I wish
Those hellguns literally have chaos undivided logo on them
kark
ngl since we're on the subject of stupidly op guns
unbraced is a constant stream, while holding right click to brace it charges up a giant glob that is launched with left click, splattering on impact
i would love one of those lasmachineguns that have the two uhh
cables going into it
almost got the on overwatch penance but got hit by a dog last second
Yea that’s a hellgun
to be fair we might get some space marine level weapons if everyones theory about the great unclean one is true
ohhhh
i have no clue how canon this is i just want ogryn to have basically a lava gun that shoots a giant splattery ball of flaming goo
meltagun
Melta and longlas are coming to the game eventually
he wants on overwatch
Probably next year?
YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
not sure how the longlas is gonna work
scope
lot more carryable teammates now that havoc released
No thanks I'll take a hot-shot instead
i think they should actually remove some weapons because violence is bad 💔
maybe like the half life 2 snipers or the enemy snipers where you just aim with the "totally not about to snipe you" laser
that is the equivalent of the bat beacon or whatever its called
make it so we can resolve our differences through interpretive dance
inquisition, got a slaneeshi cultist right here
kill him, thanks

I'm ordo xenos wtf is a slaaneshi, some kind of jeanstealer?
looks like it might be a
signle shot
or like the bolter pre-buff(?)
dunno if it got nerfbuffed or
buffnerfed
Shock maul - released (secrets of the machine god)
Relic blade - released (grim protocol)
Force greatsword - released (grim protocol)
Longlas - TBA
Melta - TBA
2-handed chainaxe - TBA
Why another chainaxe
An extra powerful precision Lasgun that fires hotshot (capable of penetrating astartes power armor)
I hope it never comes to a point of which i have to pen astartes armor
There’re already weapons in the game that would be able to penetrate astartes armor
it'd be like the ogryns with that bigass pickaxe lol
That being
boltgun
oh yeah
ok so so so
but to be fair its the uhh
adeptus sororitas boltgun tho
two chainaxes
You'll have to pry it from my cold dead hands before someone steals my denim
its liek 9mm to a .45
one for each hand
Plasma gun
Krak grenade
Thunder hammer
Flamer, even
Maybe the 2 bolt weapons
Pretty much every warp-based attack by psyker
Ogryn as a whole
I am ordo xenos, I understand the rage
Breaking news: Local Veteran "John Darktide" sniped by mourningstar forces after being mistaken for a rager whilst wielding two chain axes.
also yeah did you know psyker has like the strongest impact in the game AFAIK. it's... their force push certain weapons have
do you think the night lords would be anxious when they see 4 crackheads tear through a whole planet's worth of chaos forces
they can literally send bulwarks flying
uhh
ogryns ARE sub-space marine
the deathwatch approves this message
psykers in the game can telekinetically fling an adult ogryn like they were weightless
i mean knowing warhammer scaling and
It’s the arbites version
Which would still be able to penetrate power armor given enough shots
custodes killing 2 of them with a fucking pebble
arbites what now
rejog my memory thats
ringing a very faint bell
Imperial government police
judge dredd ripoffs
Better equipped
Shotguns are a bit more ubiquitous between arbites and regular enforcers
do you think their uhh
fancy shotguns could pen space marinse
like with the slugs
No
hmm
depends
are we going tabletop accurate or lore accurate
or better yet, darktide accurate
nothing fancy about those shotguns if the shells/ammo themselves aren't special
Darktide is canon
hey you neverf know
(Everything that happens in Darktide is therefore canon)
Is the random guardsman inhaling a hive cities worth of infectious gas also canon
like in all seriousness for a minute
There’s some planet northwest of the sol system where an inquisitorial warband has more confirmed banishments of beasts of nurgle than the entire grey knights chapter
how the actual friggle fraggle are no players getting like
infected and executed by inhaling the gas
i mean yeah but thats
the inquisition for you
DT player characters are simply built different
Speaking of which
me when im too strong to breathe so therefore i am not infected by the nurgle gas
Rogue Trader is on sale
the pox is a spiritual disease, the physical parts are mentioned in missions, while the spiritual portion has some explanations for each character
where can i see these explenations?
im curious now
Judging by fatshark’s player stats there’re like 1.3 million Cadian survivors from the 13th black crusade fighting on Atoma prime
plot armor
lmaoi
what are the preferred blessings for the double barrel shotgun using weapon specialist?
The cutthroat personality for veteran canonically participated in cadia’s defense during the 13th black crusade
mentioned as decontamination protocols by hadron in the missions and complained about by some of the characters
ill look it up then
the zealot is too indoctrinated into the imperial cult to get sick, no idea on the vet, ogryn built different, and psyker has some resistance to the warp cuz psyker

on the spiritual end
Hey would yall recon like
if the canon veteran was space marine-ified
they could beat a space marine in a one on one
DT veterans are 1 geneseed away from becoming named space marines
lmao
U throw the average space marine into a 1v1 melee with a plague ogryn and he’s prob getting ripped into pieces
yall give me a good chuckle somehow
the former or latter
just for clarification
the space marine
By the emperor*
In a melee only 1v1 against a plague ogryn
female uhhhhh whatever the one that doesn't care voice is the best i love it
very funny callouts
deserter lady
veteran
my favorite is still the savants large associate
also apparently went to jail because they sold things
they didn't desert. they. uh. sold gear they weren't supposed to
Yeah our rejects are op
Like elite scions
fanatic zealot got into space crack
you name a group of people "rejects", send them in 4 man squads and expect them to die immediately
you're literally brewing main characters
also you put them with the serious male professional veteran and hilarity ensues
as she literally tries to piss off the professional in every. single. way. possible.
yup
(she's also funny with the crazy male psyker voice that talks about their beloved because they're like the one person who takes their beloved as true basically)
i've not met a deserter lady ingame yet (dunno the personality trait, sue me)
looking forwards to it though
professional doesn't mind though
Loose cannon
yall heard t he dialogue line where she asks the zealot why he's following her
lmfao
thats female professional
oh
and male judge zealot
even better lol
honestly i swear like
half of darktides playerbase stays for the hilarious fucking dialogue
also i vaguely recall the reason for being a loose cannon is because she like... saw eldar or something, basically, and decided "you know what, fuck this, that armor started screaming 'help me' i'm done"
professional is just annoyed he didn't get pressed into the ordo xenos
that's why she's the main character
for more honest fighting
she avoided dying in her pilot epiosode
nah dreamer psyker is the main character
the schizophrenic?
the one talking to a fragment of the emperor
the schizophrenic.
or tzeentch
speaking of tzeentch
i heard some cultist yell like
I luhh the professional
I wasn't joking abt 20s either

"Anyway, back when you were in the guard~"
Yes
Got a build for it?
Talent or item
80 in everything besides mobility
Carapace + elite
Brutal momentum
Headtaker
As for talents it depends on what your gun is
I'm flexible
But Rashad needs heavy investment into bottom right
kite a horde for 15 years bu just running
I've never used the knife
once asked a cut-throat vet if he wanted to see cadia again
I then showed him rock
cadia looks like a fucking space terrarium lmfao
never seen a cut-throat veteran again
you got put on a universal restraining order
Are u playing regular or havoc
Just use shout rez duuuh
This is what I use for havoc
Let me save that
lmao loose cannon keeps talking to male veteran like "SO. BACK WHEN YOU WERE IN THE GUARD"
has there ever been a "canon" reason why the professional is in jail
What do you use for that template @tall torrent
loose cannone smuggling, fanatics drug use
ogryns being ogryns (poor slabs)
psykers existing as psykers
So I finished reading everything and, uhhh, I think you guys are too late about having Slaaneshi cultist here though.
rashad + plasma/laspistol
did you say jeanstealers?
hopped on darktide for one game got accepted to a havoc 40 and cleared it with a solid team
Lpistol?
rank 40 win hurray
Uhhh, no? I only talked about Chaos sisters turned Daemon Prince x A lost Eldar Farseer?
Lemme send u one that’s easier to read
Yellow is optional pathing alternative
Green is float point (29/30)
My goat
If u play laspistol, take shock trooper, and take born leader pathing instead of KTHD
If u play plasma, I’d recommend CQKZ
Yeah never touched Laspistol after 2 missions of using it
Survivalist vs fire team is team dependent
If you already have another survivalist veteran in your team, go fire team
It boosts your grenades’ AoE and give ur team a bit more damage
Better than taking the same aura (which doesn’t stack)
Starting path is kind of preference but I think for havoc specifically, top right is the better route
i have 2 versions of the same build for this scenario
are you running fauto mod for the laspistol?
One Motion allows u to throw frags faster
O4B allows you to recover toughness from every kill (matters vs shooters)
5% move speed is better than 1 stamina
Oh shit
or just tapping for heads
I use it cuz I’m lazy sometimes, but I can click at max rpm pretty easily
DT semi auto weapons don’t shoot very fast
how much toughness does out for blood give on a shooter kill
5% from every non-melee kill
10% from melee kills
Full auto is nice for QoL
Another one added to my folder
It’s just QoL because u tend to lose control (shoot more than u need) with it
Fire team is more point friendly because u don't need to waste another point for demo team or VOC
For base game tho, even though the havoc build works well
I think u can have more variety
i think skullcrusher on shovel was not the play for havoc
i wasnt hitting enough enemies hard enough for hammerblow to matter
ill make a new shovel
It's also closer to Agile engagement, which is one of the best nodes on the tree
it's legitimately the only way I can fit agile engagement without feeling gimped
This is for base game (works outside of havoc & C-I-VI maelstrom)
It’s a lot more flexible with guns
Outside of plasma / boltgun / helbore it should meet most guns’ talent needs
hey do i just keep rolling brunts armroy till i get that 80/80/60 stat gun stuff
or does it go up as i upgrade
What gun are u going for
Preferably get a 60 collateral one but it doesn’t really matter
Recon has 3 stats that don’t matter that much
wait just a bit of clarification rq
do i just reroll brunts armory till i get desired weapon stats
or do i have to upgrade and pray
That’s for after reaching lv30 usually
Since if you’re just starting on the game you prob don’t have a lot of resources to spend
That’s not a lot
That’s like maybe 2 godroll weapons
2~3
Since consecration and empowerment also cost resources
does he know we spend 2 million dockets for just 3 godrolls
outside of plasma gun, every weapon is easy to godroll
I usually get one within 200k dockets though, then suffer upgrade costs.
So real
Isn't it just because the Plasma wants a very specific mess?
a godroll is just
yea
something with a specific stat distribution that's ideal for the weapon
alr tahts all i needed to know, thx
dont buy from melk
u can get from brunt, emperor's gift and melk
i dont
unless you love gacha games
but best chances are brunt and emperor's gift
but im a professional gambler
Good luck
i dont like plasma
anyway i'll see yall in
200k ordo dockets
Then every weapon is easy to roll
Any tips for breaking into Auric?
"Don't suck lmao"
Steps of getting good in darktide :
- learn to block in sedition and uprising
- learn to dodge in malice (dodge melee attacks, avoid getting disabled by trapper / push the poxburster / push or dodge pox hound)
- learn how to tag enemies in heresy (outline for easy headshots, make teammates aware of specialists)
- learn situational awareness in damnation (teammate is disabled, help them)
- in auric you learn how to fight every enemy in the game by yourself as well as the priority list (because there's always a special and elite, know which one to kill first)
- in havoc you need to perfect everything you’ve learnt and treat every encounter against every enemy with respect because things can snowball out of control extremely fast
im at like auric mode
but i've never played auric
we ball?
you offering to play with?
Sure?
I think I mostly need more practice/muscle memory on higher difficulties but I'm getting there. I got top Offense for the first time last night and killed like 40% of all the elites/specials in the run myself which was good for me I though.
I’m in NA east tho
