Nah wait, I just saw this guys's status

Has worse main character syndrome than Kanye KEKW_ogryn

The hell is going on here

terse idol
#

Basically, pretty good if you run standard shovel with uncanny

orchid hemlock
#

Nah fam, the only thing you are "strangling" is.... uwugryn

terse idol
#

But like hotshot only really works with some melee weapons

#

You can't just put it on a ds4 and have it cleave a bunch

warm bolt
terse idol
#

I don't think Janintti was talking about the guide

#

Just the game

neat sphinx
terse idol
#

Oh also, I learned from path that agile engagement applies to your bayonett

#

So for helbore you just shoot and with agile you can use the bayonett and get extra damage

#

I also don't think it's like meme

#

Helbore is pretty ammo efficient

orchid hemlock
#

Bros never seen the guide but thinks it's shit

#

10/10 analysis

#

I will try the funni out though, just gotta get a good shovel, thanks for telling me

terse idol

He just doesn't like the guide

#

Dats okie

I dont have anything against the fucking guide, Jesus

terse idol
#

Well yeah

#

There we go

orchid hemlock
terse idol
#

Its just a misunderstanding

#

He just doesn't like using guides

Literally admits to have never read it KEKW_ogryn

How can u disagree with something you never even attributed?

where can i see some example builds for the class? I currently only have like 3

terse idol
void dragon
#

probably at least one build that make use of each keyperk, i have leaned on focused target so far

#

a comissair build?

unreal nova
#

WHEN CAN I AIM AT TEAMMATES TO BUFF THEM?

#

Especially with a Bolt Pistol?

What's a Commisar build?

#

Me shooting my own teamates? 🤔

#

VoC with the added yellow toughness talent, no revive shout

#

I can't make a build rn ch_brittishsmirk

#

I'm on my phone

#

Its stinky

#

But your bistol you're definetly looking for like at least

Lethal Proximity (or run and gun) with puncture

#

Lethal proximity plays into a grenadier style gameplay since LP affects your grenade

unreal nova
#

BOOMIES?

wanton dawn
#

Someone's looking for a build ?

unreal nova
#

BOOMIES?!

warm bolt
#

SOMEONE CALL FOR A BOOM?

supple stag
#

GRENADE OUT

warm bolt
#

ONE WORD, I'LL MAKE IT RAIN

supple stag
#

Speaking of Bolt pistol tho, WS is nice with it

void dragon
#

name of the game would be "variety", want to have many builds that are fundamentally different, gear included

terse idol
#

Give a concept for a build and we can certainly help ya

#

There are like common keystones for weapon builds

#

Like the zarona playing with Weapon spec

#

With always prepared

#

Same as the double barrel shotgun

supple stag
#

Combat shotgun fits there too, bolt pistol

unreal nova
#

But if you want BP and VoC and like grenades.... I can shove you my FUN.

supple stag
#

Love me weapon spec

unreal nova
wanton dawn
#

Here's one for bolter. It's not "meta", but it is the most fun way to play the weapon imo. Surgical, pinning/puncture, unarmored/flak (can vary). For melee PS or DS I guess

#

I recommend 2 stams as well

supple stag
unreal nova
#

You can take auto reload if you are not fun and dump Field Improv.

#

But then I don't like you anymore.

#

Well, unless i'm there then it makes no diff since I always have it.

wanton dawn
#

Note that ppl either take OtB or CK for thoughness on bottom. Don't ask which one is better

unreal nova
#

Also, you can take the brittleness over more toughness if you can make use of it better.

#

I'm just BOOM and stab so, heh.

supple stag
#

Br*ttleness

#

It has brit in it, therefore it's awful

unreal nova
#

Well, I should actually try it some time to see if it's good for me or not.

#

Considering KNOIFE.

supple stag
#

It probably won't matter too much

#

Considering you can just exploit rending to bleed the shit out of elites anyway

unreal nova
#

I guess. Uncanny is funny.

supple stag
#

For my grenadier build I prefer mk1 shovel

#

Bonk

#

I love that weapon now

unreal nova
#

I just be gremlin with too many boomies.

#

BOOMIES.

supple stag
#

Now I wanna play Darktide

#

Considering grenade spam

#

However playing by myself is uhh, not so enjoyable

void dragon
inland orchid
#

pub's are a acquired taste grinch

#

i dont blame u one bit

unreal nova
void dragon
#

the lower right perk

wanton dawn
#

I use the stacks on not moving cuz it stacks in melee so I can frontload my stacks. The other is for stamina regen on deadshot

terse idol
terse idol
#

I think uncanny is too good to pass up

supple stag
#

I can't be bothered to remember people on this discord for my own sanity

wanton dawn
#

Marksman focus is also fun with Vrak inf autogun

unreal nova
terse idol
#

That is the knife for the comboo yuhh

#

Since you can 1 combo crushers if you land the combo on the head

unreal nova
supple stag

I don't know people around these parts, besides Ainz

#

I'm mid at the game myself, I'm better at the other tide game

#

The better tide game I mean

loud belfry
#

WOAH

unreal nova
loud belfry
#

darktide feels better gameplay wise imo

supple stag
#

That's your opinion

unreal nova
supple stag
#

I like fantasy more

wanton dawn
supple stag
#

Darktide reminds how every single shooter throws cod like movement to them nowadays

#

With all the sliding and so on

unreal nova
#

To be fair, without it, you'll need bubbles way WAY more.

supple stag
#

Well, I suppose it's time to try my luck in pubs

#

I still need to finish this boring af event

wanton dawn
#

Got the event portrait a few hours ago

#

The event is okay

#

Idk why limited to auric thougj

supple stag
#

Feels uninspired tbh, but oh well

#

I'll just go through it with shovel + bolt pistol + grenade autism

grand perch
#

it should have been ooops all ogryn instead of just sporadic ogryn patrols

wanton dawn
#

I tried a few things but ps got me through smoothly even with pubs

unreal nova
unreal nova
supple stag
#

Having noone I can trust makes me less motivated to play this eh

And then we also get new oggy specials, yes.

#

It’s so fucking funny watching people adapt to the Brute Conscripts event

supple stag
#

What a good start, error code 3013

#

xdd

faint beacon
#

They always fold to the first spawn

unreal nova
#

That includes base 30 lvls.

#

So worse.'

supple stag
#

I guess I am not playing today

#

Error code 3013 my ass

unreal nova
#

Did you try again?

supple stag
#

Multiple times

#

Multiple operatives

#

I guess that's what I get for being European

unreal nova
#

Guess it's just quality servers then.

supple stag
#

Going to Psykhanium first helped, somehow

#

Weird game is it

#

this is gonna be fun, truly

#

also other vet runs plasma ew

terse idol
#

Its not gambling it's learning to bust in the muscle memory required to perform the combo KEKW_ogryn

odd summit
#

i apologize combat knife, i wasn't really faimiliar with your game

terse idol
#

Its not bad, but then I added in trench fighter to make it faster and I got scared

unreal nova
terse idol
#

I'm running the bleed talent in the tree, mercy killer and uncanny

unreal nova
#

Also all the panicked "Go away, I don't like you. shoo go away, I hate you." Spam at hordes and bosses. Well, everything not friendly.

faint beacon
#

Imagine not running the VA and shutting down plasma users

unreal nova
#

Because 260+ ping means if I do get surrounded, I'm dead since things take too long to actually die, and they aren't considered dead so they cause collision.

terse idol
#

Like I'll be honest my fingers forget about the push attack combo when the horde is maulers crusher mixture

#

And then dead

unreal nova
faint beacon
#

Kite and Retreat

unreal nova
#

If it's havoc. "CHAOS SENPAI, HALP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

faint beacon
#

That’s literally my only suggestion

#

You can’t rush an Ogryn pack

unreal nova
#

Because, I have DS4 and flamer. And half my hits don't actually hit.

unreal nova
supple stag
#

throws 4 grenades and dies

unreal nova
#

It's frags, what did you expect?

#

Unless you get 4 smokes as well.

#

Maybe I should make a smoke...

#

Sees 5 loadouts. Eh.

faint beacon
#

Shredder and VOC till you see the smallest opening to slip through

#

Cause look my team dies they die

#

I got out it’s that simple

grand perch
unreal nova
#

Kraks kinda count, since getting lucky and killing like 7 crushers with a twinned...

supple stag
#

It wasn't too bad

#

Shame that Plasma Vet kept stealing elites

unreal nova
#

I mean, that's a reason to run 1 shot kill bs.

#

Take all the kills.

supple stag
#

🥱

#

Yeah, one game of DT is enough

#

Time to play something more fun

snow cypress
#

Hi guys,what weapon would you recommend for a sniper/distance playstyle?

hollow ibex
#

helbore, ilas, revolver, bolter

lilac kayak
faint beacon
#

I think it’s more fun to be able to drop entire waves of enemies with a gun or melee that still has a drawback instead of a Swiss Army knife

#

It’s why I do not like plasma

arctic rampart
vernal harbor
#

whenever y’all are ready, ill show y’all a thing or two of how i got to get he best

sleek garden
#

okay, on my devils claw do i put shred or rampage

faint beacon
#

Now it’s strictly Auric

unreal nova
#

Normal.

#

It's not too big of a deal and well, it's still less punishing than Hi int STG with it.

terse idol
#

Which sound oddily similar to when the sniper squads get dropped off during vent purge

unreal nova
#

Look, don't remind me.

#

15 lasers and a crusher/bulwark pack.

terse idol
#

My point being, I guess they wanted it to only be on auric so they can send the THICKEST amount of ogryns at us

unreal nova
#

_>

terse idol
#

Hence the "Ogryn Conscripts"

unreal nova
#

Yes, vent purge.

#

Saw the Psyker who dared go out get rail gunned.

#

Still, any dev with half a brain cell would know forcing it would just push people who can't do aurics into aurics trying to get the event rewards.

#

So ruining the game for everyone in sense.

#

And who really cares if the normals are easier. If you want easy finishes for it, just go for it then.

terse idol
#

I kinda like pushing people into aurics 😌

unreal nova
#

It doesn't hurt the people who casually play aurics since they don't need to have to deal with new, not ready for or bad players.

odd summit
terse idol
#

Like, ahh the only way folks will ever try is if you put these kinds of incentives in

unreal nova
faint beacon
#

You can still get HISTG + Brute Conscripts

#

That shit is peak Darktide

terse idol
#

Most players even more new to like aurics imo can do

#

Auric heresey

#

(Poooossssiiiibbllllyy on on ogryn conscripts histg but it's hard)

terse idol
faint beacon
#

You should naturally get into Aurics if you even have a hope of playing Havoc

terse idol
#

You're telling me there are ogryn conscript missions without histg

unreal nova
terse idol
#

Oh, also on a side note I did play

#

Or try to play

#

Lights out ogryn conscripts histg with my friend

#

Holy fuck

unreal nova
#

Excuse me? Why are you all lying, there's always lights out or vent purge!

tame lodge
unreal nova
faint beacon
#

Pay attention to the event modifier

odd summit
terse idol
#

I tried to play 1 ogryn conscripts histg with lights out and that was horrifying

faint beacon
#

It’s usually Brute Conscripts and X

terse idol
#

I only ever got histg

faint beacon
#

Or you’ll get the easy Hi-Intensity Brute Conscripts

terse idol
#

And then histg + lights out

faint beacon
#

My past 8 matches have been

unreal nova
#

You mean blind or blind.

terse idol
#

What's blind

unreal nova
#

Or crusher packs with 50 billion doggos.

unreal nova
faint beacon
#

Hi-Intensity Brute Conscripts and Hunting Grounds

#

Word for word

terse idol
terse idol
#

Since I played purge staff psyker for most of these missions

#

Lmao!

faint beacon
#

Hi-intensity Brute Conscripts (Power Supply Interruption)

terse idol
#

Easy doggo killing

faint beacon
#

That’s lights out

terse idol
#

Yeah I never heard of "blind" before

unreal nova
#

Is just jokes for not having any real vision.

#

And to be fair, Vent purge is extra bad on some maps for me. I can't even see bullet trails then so...

#

Since they just blend into the vent purge thing.

faint beacon
#

It’s only bad for one thing

#

Snipers and Brute waves share the same stinger

#

So it’s a coin toss of walking into a firing line or getting stampeded

unreal nova
#

Well sure, but it's more an accessibility issue in my case.

terse idol
#

The snipers turning their laser pointers on

#

I love that stinger though

#

The valk dropping the squad in and zooming off

faint beacon
#

They share the same exact stinger for spawns

terse idol
#

Oh

#

qHAT

#

I haven't played vent purge in long enough

faint beacon
#

Imo they should’ve just made stomping followed with metal clanking like a march for a brute wave

unreal nova
#

I just know when someone gets railed to the stars by 15 shots at the same time.

faint beacon
#

Brute Conscripts Sniper Vent Purge compliment each other pretty fucking heavily

#

Cause if you get unlucky enough they can absolutely kill you

unreal nova
#

Cover? Well, you get forced out by the crushers.

faint beacon
#

Bulwark wave pushing you directly into the sniper pack sight line

#

It’s vicious

unreal nova
#

Then you have to pray you have enough dodges to deal with all the dook.

#

And hope a small dook isn't blocking said dodge.

Silly goofy fun time Bolter build I farmed Brute Squad with

orchid hemlock
thick needle
#

Gotta have my reload speed

orchid hemlock
#

Don't u already get that on the right? 🤔

thick needle
#

Only if you have ammo left in the chamber

faint beacon
#

Tac reload is always good for Bolter

#

Though longshot is questionable now ever since it’s nerf from the close range changes

peak tree
#

What grenades are you all preferring on higher end havoc these days?

faint beacon
#

Shredders or Smokes

#

Those are the two good choices for 30+ on Havoc

thick needle
#

With the amount of specialists, Volley is pretty much always on

#

Plus it stacks with Tac Reload

calm shard
#

with bolt pistol for 14 meter radius

thick needle
#

Wdym

unreal nova
#

BEEG BOOMIES.

thick needle
#

The Bistol's point blank explosion thing or does it buff grenades somehow?

unreal nova
#

It buffs grenades yes.

hollow ibex
#

lethal prox buffs nades

thick needle
#

Ooo I was not aware

unreal nova
#

Even Kraks.

peak tree
#

I'm going through a phase of chasing down my veterans class achievements, both for funsies and to try out all the abilities in various combos, but looking to get back to actual challenging skill progression.

#

Not much left to finish vet achievements.

thick needle
#

Vet is the only class I platinum'd

faint beacon
#

God do I have to dig up the ancient video of me testing LP

thick needle
#

No I believe y'all

unreal nova
#

You can easily test in psykhanium anyway.

faint beacon
#

This was like Day 2 SOTMG

#

Iirc

#

Wasn’t even testing Grenade Tinkerer btw

#

That also impacts LP value even more

dry cloak
#

those were wierd times in darktide

unreal nova
#

When you have both, is funni.

dry cloak
#

when gloriana was the main map fo a week

thick needle
#

Bolter supremacy indeed

dry cloak
#

on vet i prefer the bolter

unreal nova
#

Ehm, Bolt Pistol. Bolter no lethal prox.

dry cloak
#

bolt pistol does not work for my builds

thick needle
#

They're both bolters in spirit

dry cloak
#

for my exe stance i want something that can delete thing quickly

thick needle
#

I should try DS Bistol WS in havoc

dry cloak
#

i.e big bolter

faint beacon
#

Most effective Vet build for H40 at least

calm shard
#

it's so goddamn fun too

#

any moderately inconvenient enemy spawn just throw 2 or 3 shredders at them

#

everything dies and you probably get them back

hollow ibex
#

tanner doesn't know shit

unreal nova
#

Basically above. There's no point in using the current combat shotgun except for fun.

faint beacon
#

A summarized version of why we don’t like them is because they genuinely give questionable to bad takes even though they have the skill of a player who knows what they’re doing, issue is when you’re unironically telling people to use plasma gif horde clear you’re fucking insane

tame lodge
#

Better at what?

faint beacon
#

That’s the joke

tame lodge
#

Wrong

#

Try again

faint beacon
#

I know it’s got goofy synergy with very very specific builds but that’s about it

tame lodge
#

Anyways

unreal nova
tame lodge
#

Combat Shotgun has better specialist and boss prowess that DB

#

While DB is just elites

faint beacon
#

For veteran or in general cause I refuse to believe that when a DB SG player is in my lobby

tame lodge
#

Oh and CS uptime is also higher

unreal nova
#

Look, you can't argue a slug shot doesn't make things fall over in a funny.

All this shotgun talk makes me want to play Surety Shotgun

#

Off to Psyker we go

ive only ran into 2 insane ogryns in the time ive came back. you ran into 2 in 2 days

vernal trench

yea godgryns are beloved

hollow ibex
vernal trench
#

once u see it ull love ogryns

latent parcel
#

i dont think sirosky plays alot of havocs though

hollow ibex
#

enough to know that ogryn's not meta there

#

and enough auric/AM to know that ogryn isn't meta there either KEKW_ogryn

vernal trench
#

its definitely not meta but a godgryn is a godgryn

latent parcel
#

doesnt need to be meta lol u dont need meta for havoc 40

vernal trench

at this point ive played more havocs than maelstroms lfmao

vernal trench

if ur bad u need the meta KEKW_ogryn

hollow ibex

true

calm shard
hollow ibex
#

well that's why people want psykers

#

you can run the crutch melee and still have horde clear

latent parcel
#

i dont even trust the psykers

vernal trench
#

a good ogryn will clear a horde betetr than a psyker

latent parcel
#

they have the most deaths and knocks per game usually im in

hollow ibex

a good ogryn doesn't have infinite cleave

vernal trench
hollow ibex

ok show me an ogryn build with infinite cleave

tame lodge
#

shield

vernal trench
vernal trench
tame lodge
#

literally shield

calm shard
#

slab shield does have infinite cleave innately on H2 doesn't it?

#

or damn near infinite cleave

hollow ibex
#

are you really asking why you need cleave in a mode where hit mass is increased by muiltiple times

calm shard
#

don't think I've ever seen that attack stop on anything

#

also brutal momentum H1 mulching hordes because brutal momentum, good cleave, and high damage

You know

latent parcel
#

oh man that godgryn made u guys look like shit

hollow ibex
#

and still won't cleave through shit like bulwarks or crushers

tame lodge
#

Still Infinite cleave
Which is what you asked for

calm shard
#

how is shield a pain in the ass to use it's probably the mo0st braindead melee in the game

tame lodge
#

So whatever

calm shard
#

you press heavy

#

and then heavy again

#

maybe block to do that first heavy if you want damage

hollow ibex
#

on this "infinite" (not really infinite) cleave

tame lodge
#

Nah it's infinite

vernal trench
#

cant do nothing theres nothing for me to kill

tame lodge

Carapace stopping cleave is property of carapace

#

So yes

which ya is important

#

iand i guess you rely on grenade spam in big packs

hollow ibex
#

ilas infernus is kinda cursed, but havoc is weird

mortal horizon
#

but man its such a boring gun, nice it has a place in the meta tho finally

calm shard
#

mine on my vet can one shot gunners on the IIb

hollow ibex
#

even with crits ilas is pretty meh tbh

mortal horizon
hollow ibex
#

II, and then infernus and ghost for havoc

mortal horizon
#

ive seen some good vets using bolt pistol in 30+ and doing well too

calm shard
#

IIb (the fast one), deadly accurate, and ghost

hollow ibex
mortal horizon
hollow ibex
#

and that's why they have the bistol

calm shard
#

yeah nobody really uses the bolt pistol for the sake of it being a gun

vernal trench
#

bolt pistol is great

calm shard
#

lethal proximity grenades

mortal horizon
#

gotcha

#

ya the lethal proximity thing is cool

#

but its a decent gun too idk, pops heads

#

i havent used in high havoc tho

hollow ibex
#

bolter's just the ultimate meme blessing interactions weapon

mortal horizon
#

but in auric i rock it with surgical + the bleed one. I dont like deadly accurate too infrequent procs even with surgical bc i only use surgical here or there

hollow ibex
#

i hope they never "fix" it

mortal horizon
#

the puncture breakpoints are nice

#

but i havent tried it in havoc

unreal nova
#

To be fair, it's basically what it has going for it.

vernal trench
#

boltgun is used a ton in high havocs

#

oneof the best weapons out there

mortal horizon
#

so, torn on dump stat on bolt pistol

#

on first glance mobility seems obvious

#

but tbh collateral doesnt do much

#

and it could be nice to have that boosted dodges etc

tall torrent
tall torrent
unreal nova
#

I dumped mobility, but to be fair, i just swap to knoife for GASGASGAS.

mortal horizon
# tall torrent Collateral

thats what i was thinking, but wondering if theres any stagger breakpoint not having 80 misses, like maybe it doesn't knock out a reaper of shooting if pus hardened, but would if 80 collat, for example

mortal horizon
#

was what i was considering

calm shard
#

I like big number

tall torrent
#

Yea that bit is obvious from ur name

unreal nova
#

Honestly, the dump depends on your melee. If you go Powersword, you rather just dump collateral. If you use knoife or DS4, you can choose to dump mobility.

calm shard
#

psyker should get plasma gun

tall torrent
#

Collateral doesn’t change stagger breakpoints

#

So it doesn’t matter

calm shard
#

I NEED to see the 25 stack disrupt destiny scriers gaze shot

tall torrent
calm shard
#

damnit you're right

#

helbore

tall torrent
#

Play marksman focus then

calm shard
#

I do

#

fully charged MK IV helbore headshot on the basic groaner

pseudo fiber
#

I love full team crashes on havoc 40

#

another challenge from fatshark

#

give me harder battles

unreal nova
#

-1 life straight up.

mortal horizon
#

ok so ya this good?

#

or different perks?

#

figured wanted reaper dmg and flak is universal

#

gunners, shotgunners, flak scab shooters

vernal trench
#

tbh infantry alsgun does little damage imo

mortal horizon
#

or is unarmored wanted for yellow shooters/yellow elite gunners?

calm shard
#

most go flak+unarmored/maniac

hearty panther
#

ilas have reverse damage fall off

mortal horizon
#

so was trying something new

calm shard
#

maniac because the infantry las have absurd maniac damage and it makes it even better

hearty panther
#

so their damage table is somewhat misleading

hollow ibex
#

but it's different at least

mortal horizon
#

was told for high havoc its better at headshot gunner countering

#

heard more than once its one of the better vet weapons/more viable ones in high havoc

#

but ya also was something different

#

from plasma/recon

uncut pebble
#

Unless youre doing havoc stuff and this is a pus hardened ilas.

#

In which case you shouldnt be using an ilas. :P

mortal horizon
#

yes i was building it for high havoc

#

was just told its a viable high havoc gun bc of infernus and consistant anti gunner lmao

calm shard
#

fun gun

latent parcel
mortal horizon
#

but i figured reaper dmg was important

calm shard
#

(this is the MKVII)

mortal horizon
#

but ya i can see unarmored being good

calm shard
#

it is but like

#

infantry las already has good unyielding

mortal horizon
#

I was told MK IIb is good

calm shard
#

p sure the slow one can 3 shot reapers with MF+exe stance

mortal horizon
#

is that not it?

hearty panther
#

reapers youre gonna manage with infernus really

calm shard
#

IIb and VII are the good ones

#

slow one is the bad one, but it's still fun

tall torrent
mortal horizon
#

i mean its the blessing that makes the lasguns even viable in high havoc

#

so i really disagree lol

tall torrent
#

doesn't crit enough for infernus to be valuable

mortal horizon
#

recon las would be trash without it

tall torrent
#

headhunter + shock trooper is much better ammo econ

mortal horizon
#

ah, that could be the case

#

bc lower fire rate

mortal horizon
#

sounds like you're theory crafting

tall torrent
#

just recon

mortal horizon
#

and i have advice from people who USE it in havoc and say its good with this build tho

#

so idk, ill test it out

vernal trench
tall torrent
#

laspistol has some crit chance to run infernus but not really reliable enough

tall torrent
#

the only gun that does that is recon

mortal horizon
#

figure i could just drop the weapon specialist reload perk

#

and pick up deadshot

#

seems good with it

#

but idk

tall torrent
calm shard
#

I have mine built like this for MF+exe stance infantry lasgun

#

though only reason I went out for blood is because I was using the helbore

#

close order drill+confirmed kill is prob better

tall torrent
# mortal horizon ok so ya this good?

flak maniac
ghost
headhunter

DA is mid value because the gun doesn't crit often enough without headhunter, and ghost is basically half the reason to use this gun

Infernus is even less value than DA because u want even more crits to use it in the first place

vernal trench
tall torrent
#

if u gotta farm deadshot/reciprocity to get value out of a blessing on ur gun I feel u went wrong somewhere in ur build

calm shard
calm shard
#

usually power sword

#

heavy sword if I'm using Mk IV helbore

tall torrent
#

what's reciprocity for then

#

crit farming?

calm shard
#

yeah

tall torrent
#

kinda meh tbh

calm shard
#

I like infinite ammo it's a nice novelty

tall torrent
#

headhunter already does that for u

#

u can prob get more value out of rending strikes + BID

#

I don't think u necessarily need determined if u take exe stance

#

it's already not necessary on helbore

calm shard
#

yeah obv

#

determined is only there because I switched to infantry las

tall torrent
#

and for inf las, given u have shooter highlight, u shouldn't need it

calm shard
#

and laspistol which is probably why reciprocity was there in the first place

tall torrent
#

normally u don't even need subnodes for exe stance

#

and if u take exe stance u don't need determined

#

born leader is pretty low value with exe stance as well

#

might as well take FTE

calm shard
#

Yeah I took counterfire entirely because gun vet is my go to build for when I'm sick of being shot by random stalkers in dark alleys

tall torrent
#

is that for havoc or base game

calm shard
#

for havoc I run grenade spam most of the time

hearty panther
#

take born leader for havocs

#

your psykers will thank you

#

well, i will anyway

tall torrent
hearty panther
#

i only have 60 toughness lmao

orchid hemlock

I used to run exhilarating takedown, but ended up switching off it because it only applying on ranged kills sucks

tall torrent
tall torrent
calm shard
#

yeah

#

if need be I suppress them with bolt pistol

tall torrent
#

then u don't need shooter highlight or determined

calm shard
#

if they decide to tell me to go fuck myself and shoot me anyways just VoC

tall torrent
#

more point save

calm shard
#

No I mean I don't run exe stance build for havo

#

at all

tall torrent
#

yea so that build is for base game

calm shard
#

I use this with combat knife/bolt pistol

tall torrent
#

and for base game u don't need a lot of things in there

calm shard
#

oop wait

#

not field improvisation

#

I use bring it down instead

tall torrent
calm shard
#

right forgot that was there too

#

I've been playing with friends a lot on vet and helping them get penances

#

this is how I run it normally

#

close order drill/confirmed kill up top

tall torrent
#

I don't think tinkerer is worth 2 points to grab personally

#

for boltpistol u kind of NEED superiority complex

#

it's just so astronomically fucked in terms of breakpoints if u don't

#

I also think WS is better off for boltpistol assuming u do take superiority complex

#

always prepared is just neat

#

especially for an 8r mag gun that reloads quite slow

calm shard
#

reload doesn't feel that slow to me

hearty panther
#

3.5s? for eight rounds that's not much

#

something like that anyway

calm shard
#

it's definitely not a fast reload, but it's not like revolver or DB shotgun where I feel like I need to have that

hearty panther
#

it's tiered at least so it isnt on the revolver's level of being slow, but you also cant feed in just one or two bullets and cancel it if that's all you needee

tall torrent
#

inspect says 2.48s

#

but it feels really slow

hearty panther
#

yea couldnt remember

tall torrent
#

why does my character need to do that mag spin

hearty panther
#

i dump reload on it anyway

#

flair

calm shard
tall torrent
#

why does he need to tap the mag after inserting for the ammo counter to update

#

it's so annoying

hearty panther
#

heretics will be like oh shit that's sick as fuck and take psychic damage

tall torrent
#

That mag tap is so unnecessary

grand musk

man I can't stand leveling veteran. Only class I need to max all 30s but it's just so boring at low levels.

genuinely cannot fw ogryn

tame lodge
#

Sad but understandable

sleek garden
#

when i started this game i wasnt very good so it was a challenge until after i started my veteran

#

was too afraid to go past heresy for a while

#

all the classes feel the same at first but id say the psyker feels the hardest to play early game

#

it felt cool to just blow up a maulers head though

#

maulers were minibosses

#

and everyone only had like a tac or combat axe or devils claw

mortal horizon
#

if farming lower level havocs, like 16-20 man

#

vet just carries so hard lol

#

later havocs i feel like its psyker carries harder but

#

those lower tiers where the plasma still has better breakpoints you just crush

calm shard
#

all of ogryns best talents are right at the start of their tree except for like bruiser/attention seeker

barren nimbus
#

vet is pretty important in high havocs for ammo

calm shard
#

don't need ammo if ogryn is turning every ranged enemy into a poxwalker

unreal nova
#

Switching to gun is like trying to pull out flamer.

#

By the time I'm ready to shoot, it's better to just switch back to melee or the targets are long dead.

#

Really, I got used to knoife.

#

Oggy is like, feels fragile since you eat so many shots.

#

And as said, I stopped at lvl 8, so you can really only consider lvl 1 to 6 weapons.

For the most part, think i was stuck with a bully club and the kickback.

crisp oak

yeah tbh the pickaxes are the best feeling weapons to me

unreal nova
#

Do note that I made the oggy when i basically had no resources to like, willy nilly buy stuff.

crisp oak
#

mainly because their heavies look nice

unreal nova
#

And the shop offerings are even more bully clubs anyway.

hollow ibex
#

all the ogryn weapons are so god damn slow

but yeah karsolas is the best i'd say

followed by shield

Honestly, at lvl 8 I might just buy a cleaver just to see how 'fast' it is.

So when joke team of I hate X char and want to lvl them us death runs on Hard mode twins?

crisp oak

it also gives the most mastery per minute

and ordo dockets

found that out by accident

unreal nova
#

So you are saying, just skip to boss and commit sudoku?

crisp oak
#

yup

#

~2:30 per run including loading screens and in exchange 3k exp, 9.7k ordo dockets, and I think 3k mastery exp

unreal nova
#

Considering a run, assuming carries speed running like heresy is still 17mins for like 5x that...

#

In XP.

crisp oak
#

yup

#

however

#

no mats

unreal nova
#

Eh.

#

1 weekly h40 will compensate.

crisp oak
#

pretty much

unreal nova
#

Not like I'm going to seriously build my oggy, RIGHT?

crisp oak
#

depends on if you find some of the pickaxes fun

#

or gunlugger

unreal nova
#

The joke is, I'll just make a "KNOIFE" and then find out it's still slow and can't dodge.

crisp oak
#

this may be the case

unreal nova
#

Then be like, it'll get me to my death faster so i can have my 'free' penance points.

#

I think the only problem is that it needs 2 ppl.

crisp oak
#

preferably 4

#

because bots arent good at dying

unreal nova
#

Just do hard mode twins.

crisp oak
#

like I had a bot survive for 5 minutes

unreal nova
#

They'll die faster, RIGHT?

crisp oak
#

in twins

#

hardmode

crisp oak

#

Are you telling me the bots are better than the pugs I got?

crisp oak
#

yes

unreal nova

crisp oak
#

I've also had bots revive me

unreal nova
#

Not kidding btw. Funniest part is, i have no clue what even is going on and they still died before I did.

crisp oak
#

I'm not surprised

#

when I first tried twins we didnt make it to the cauldron....

unreal nova
#

Because the only time I did twins was 1 in uprising and 1 in heresy.

#

And that's just for penance with the latter.

#

The 1 wound zealot thing.

crisp oak
#

oh yeah twins is good for that

unreal nova
#

Second try with just full Psyker mains team, "easy" win.

crisp oak
#

I've done hard mode a couple of times, and have been carried twice (once by hamdolson and the other by ainz)

#

mostly did ogryn

#

because ogryn is..... really good in twins

unreal nova
#

I never touched it again, lul... Well, uprising more just for less than 3 fart bombs and kill those two at same time.

crisp oak
#

yee

unreal nova
#

The bot ruined the first run.

#

Then got a fourth and lul.

How do we feel about stacking these on heavy laspistol?

yea reassuringly accurate isnt that bad in theory but you have better options with similar defensive results

lime pendant
#

So if I stack Ghost with Desperado? I like to move a lot and I mainly melee.

#

I'll swap to ranged if I need to drop a machine gunner or a sniper across the map.

#

I like heavy lazpistol because it makes me feel like a gunslinger without the ammo restrictions of the revolver.

though revolver armor penetration is bonkers.

For axe u get easier access to scab bruiser 1hs, Dreg gunner 2hs and gets you closer to havoc M21st groaner 1hs

For revolver, unarmored gives u Dreg gunner 1hs if u don’t take superiority complex (in which case elite is enough)

III is one trick folded heavy and has ~20% worse horde clear than the other variants in a weapon family that already doesn’t kill things very fast

#

The rest are pretty generalist advice

tall torrent
# swift halo *why*

You are better off supporting yourself & the team by getting to use VoC much more frequently

swift halo
calm shard
# swift halo *why*

It lowers the radius of the ability, and only provides value if someone is already down

#

VoC is a very spammable ability thanks to Tactical Awareness

proven garden
calm shard
#

You feel that radius every single time you use it. You don't always revive someone with it

#

Also it has high stagger so that can usually get you a free revive anyways without the revive node

tall torrent
# swift halo Take me as someone who knows nothing

You’re better off frequently using an ability that literally prevents all damage while active

Compared to giving it much longer cooldown just so you can maybe revive one unfortunate teammate once in a while

calm shard
#

Is it longer cooldown? I though it just made the radius smaller

tall torrent
#

30s base
45s with revive node
