why do people always defend him too like "he's gotten a lot better"

the good news is that Tanner burnt his bridge with the main community a long time ago

#

his influence only really exists purely in his "class breakdown" videos

#

but that is an issue with the YT community as a whole, not specifically Tanner

Only other Darktide YT that sketches me out is Telopots but idk enough about him to say anything

i have not yet, been trying diffirent builds. Tried a grenade veteran build but the combat knife is too high skill for me

I’d say get used to how Auric Damn feels first and then attempt Havoc 25+

Because that’s when Havoc actually becomes well

I dont get it

void gyro
#

you get a small burst of speed when taking out the shovel

loud belfry
#

his speed is going up

void gyro
#

it's obviously stamina inefficent compared to sliding but i play focus target and have stamina comin out of my gun

#

Only works on the foldables

#

would be insane if it was conserved into a slide, you hit 8 for a few frames but it just doesnt seem to keep like normal speed into a slide

#

For veterans what are the best stats for Curios?

sacred igloo
#

Except maybe ogryn

umbral scaffold
#

I think toughness , wounds? , and stamina

sacred igloo
#

Perks I always like ability regen and 5% toughness, 3rd perk again is flexible

umbral scaffold
#

That's what I run anyway

hollow ibex
#

you could do 2x toughness and 1x hp, but it hurts your perk options

sacred igloo
#

I figured toughness was always better especially with gold toughness existing

#

and toughness DR

hearty panther
#

there's a fairly entrenched mindset wherein you build yourself to have 200hp + sniper resist so you can survive 'two sniper shots', which honestly, I don't care even slightly for the idea when gold toughness is a thing you can splash out very easily and the idea of taking two sniper shots in any decent time frame where that HP/Resist saves me is like ... idk, i sincerely cant recall the last time that has ever happened to me

im totally presuming this is what sirosky means with 'hurts your perk options'

hollow ibex
#

yes

hollow ibex
hearty panther
#

in reality you can frankly just do whatever the fuck you want, except for wounds which is universally agreed upon to be shit and a waste

hollow ibex
#

you won't always have gold toughness to save you

#

unless you're playing with a coordinated team in havoc or something

#

realistically in pubs, a dumbass will push a burster into you

umbral scaffold
#

Am I wasting a stat by running wounds 🤔

hollow ibex
#

or you will catch a stray from a sniper that was aiming at your teammate

#

and you won't have gold toughness up

hearty panther
hollow ibex
#

a wound is fine if you're just learning imo

sacred igloo
hollow ibex
#

but better to learn to play without wounds

#

asap

umbral scaffold
#

Should I swap it for health

hollow ibex
#

get 200+ hp, rest into toughness

hearty panther
#

some people feel comfortable and more capable if they have that safety net and thats a psychological thing that i wont deny is real but is also a mental block you are persistently playing into and relying on that is detrimental

umbral scaffold
#

Ok glad I learnt now instead of getting comfortable w it cause yeah I don't really go down tbh

hollow ibex
#

and wounds also cause you to go down more often anyway, since you could've taken health or toughness instead

#

also makes green stimms less effective

#

so yeah pretty bad overall

umbral scaffold
#

All it does it allow you to go down more times hey?

hollow ibex
#

yeah

sacred igloo
umbral scaffold
#

Does nothing for hp

sacred igloo
#

Martyrdom gaming

hearty panther
#

but seriously, do whatever you want

#

you're gonna find a very wide breadth of opinions as to what curios you should have and what perks should be attached to them and all of them are some shade of valid (for the most part)

#

im strictly in camp "damage res perks are dumb as shit"

#

others say you should have one or two of sniper or gunner

#

others say you should triplicate both

#

and you'll find all are quite staunch on their opinion

#

because guess what, take whatever you want, it'll work for you if it works for you

cloud thunder
#

What’s better overall though? Stamina regen or sprint efficiency

hearty panther
#

sprint

cloud thunder
#

Reason?

hearty panther
#

hmmm

cloud thunder
#

Doesn’t stamina regen help you block more if needed?

hearty panther
#

vibes

#

nah h/o i wrote a post

#

i dont feel like reiterating so there

hollow ibex
#

block eff? 💀

hearty panther
#

sometimes stam regen can be a big help, but regen itself is usually not what you're lacking

#

its just getting more use out of the stamina you do regenerate, because the delay is what is really killing you

#

and vet at baseline has atrocious delay

hollow ibex
#

sprint eff is very good

cloud thunder
#

So you basically run double sprint eff with one corruption resist as third perks?

hearty panther
#

triple sprint for me

#

and i only run corruption at high havoc, which is also tripled

cloud thunder
#

Is it worth mentioning I use powersword

hollow ibex
sacred igloo
#

Understandable

hearty panther
#

i wouldnt say trolling

#

this shit takes a long time to learn lol

#

there are some hilarious takes in the thread my post originates from

#

like "36% stamina regen means 36% more blocking and sprinting"

#

which is very funny and completely wrong and a very poor deduction of its impact

#

but thats how people view these things

void dragon
#

Some has some build recommendations to make some variety for the vet? Both perks and weapons pairings.

hearty panther
#

i also ran stamina regen for i want to say about six months, labouring under the impression that it also reduced the delay (it does not and never did)

sacred igloo
hearty panther
#

at which point i swapped it out for sprint and never looked back

umbral scaffold
#

The lags really fkn bad rn

#

Just got booted

hearty panther
#

i have always ran block efficiency because Vermintide-pilled

sacred igloo
#

nevermind

#

thats a lie

#

double stam regen and 1 sprint eff

hearty panther
#

so strictly in terms of sprint vs stam

#

you can either earn 1.36 stam per second when you are regenerating

#

or you can make the stamina you do have last ~50% longer while sprinting

cloud thunder
#

I have ability CD and toughness on all 3 then stamina regenx2 and corruption resist

calm shard
cloud thunder
#

So swap the stamina regen with sprint eff?

hearty panther
#

yea id swap it like that

cloud thunder
#

Like I said

#

I use powersword

#

So I use the push attack a lot

hearty panther
#

yea

cloud thunder
#

So knowing this, you would swap to sprint still?

hearty panther
#

id consider +3 stamina

#

and yes id still consider sprint

cloud thunder
#

I have 2 atm

vernal trench
cloud thunder
#

Since I just made the vet yesterday

sacred igloo
hearty panther
#

the sprint wont directly impact your push attack costs, but you are still using less of it which frees it up to be used more for pushes

sacred igloo
#

2 is fine if its all you have tho

cloud thunder
#

I have it on my main psyker

hollow ibex
#

i don't bother with a stam curio on my vet with PS

solar valve
#

ES works well on the braced autos because of the spread decrease

#

its very nice

hollow ibex
#

graia's the best of the brautos

solar valve
#

I dont mind em all

hollow ibex
#

graia's surprisingly ammo efficient

solar valve
#

except for that one mark

#

that I forgot

hearty panther
#

plus it leads itself to running right at the bad dudes, and xstance works in melee now too

sacred igloo
hollow ibex
#

yeah i really like exec stance now

solar valve

buff ES modifiers obese fish

#

they're kinda

#

meh

hearty panther
#

ES is very strong

hollow ibex
hearty panther
#

VoC is just fucking stupid, same as it always was.

faint beacon
#

I unironically am under the impression that Vet is one of the few classes that genuinely can get away with a 21 HP 17 Tough and 3 Stam combo just cause of the talents giving you so much toughness or HP to work with

void dragon

I never see ES unfortunately

void dragon
faint beacon
#

That used to be the CIAG

cloud thunder
#

What does block efficiency do? Just reduce amount of stamina to block and does this include push attack?

hearty panther
#

only block effects

faint beacon
#

I see Graia 90% of the time im thinking of the Graia 7 Vigilant

#

cause I just love those guns

hearty panther
#

so blocking, dclaw parry, the autoblock while reviving, and the autoblock from relic blade activations (zealot)

#

i dont recommend it, and yes im aware that i use three of them

tall torrent
umbral scaffold
#

I have like 90% stamina regen is this ideal

#

Or is toughness a better option

hollow ibex
#

it's a bit of a meme build, but prob i've been top fragging with it so maybe not that much of a meme build KEKW_ogryn

#

if you don't go onslaught, you have more points to work with, but i try to use the gun as much as possible

solar valve
#

tbh Im not a big stockpile enjoyer so Id rather save the 2 points there

#

I dont spam shredders enough for it

#

gimme that desperado and stam regen delay node tho

uncut pebble
void dragon
hollow ibex
#

but i don't think keystone matters much for braced

#

MF is a bad meme with it

#

FT is nice, but really not that big of a deal

#

and brauto doesn't have particularly fast draw for WS

#

you also need to brace, for max dps, which makes WS even less appealing to play with graia

dusky kernel
#

This probably gets asked a lot, but I looked through the pins. Is there a current Commissar build using the Laspistol instead of the plasma around perchance?

hollow ibex
#

what does a comissar build mean 🤔

dusky kernel
#

Saber/Laspistol

#

Bolster's the troops in combat and such.

solar valve
#

means shout/middle keystone

jaunty tinsel
#

what guns do you like for high level havocs?

#

especially for killing gunners and such

dusky kernel
#

I've yet to do any really. I am still sorta new but my vet is 30, but so far I love the saber so I know at least what melee I like.

jaunty tinsel
#

just got out of a game where my recon was basically like a super soaker

this was a Royal You question to the channel btw

versed merlin
#

@exotic condor pinging you here cause zealot restriction sucks. so basically the numbers on the left are the current weapon stats. when it gets fully empowered, the stats will look like the ones at the right. consecration has no effect on those stats whatsoever, if it does, its a bug

exotic condor

it's fine Ill just keep buying weapons

Just enough agency to assume it is your fault

warm walrus
#

popping in here rq cuz images aren't allowed in zealot chat

#

how am i looking so far
more specifically did i make a mistake investing in the brauto and crusher here

raw needle
#

really hardly matters on that level

#

but I'd suggest saving up until you're 30

warm walrus
#

yeah good idea tbh

raw needle
#

so you don't waste mats

warm walrus
#

the ogryn gets a pass tho

#

i got a god roll branx, but for the most part u right

hollow ibex

i'm actually trying to cosplay jacket but

uncut pebble

#

brautos are fun

uncut pebble
#

Yeah but theyre terrible lmao.

uncut pebble
#

Even with abusing dance of death their spread is awful, and they only get 2 dodges compared to an infantry autogun's 5.

frank basin
#

you have 3s window for that

#

the dodge refresh it self

#

it out the 3s

uncut pebble
# warm walrus Bolter?

Frankly, I'm of the opinion that combat shotguns pair best with crusher, but considering you aren't max level and don't have mats yet, boltgun will work in a pinch. Bistol is also a good choice.

warm walrus
#

Combat shotty huh

#

Okay

#

Slug?

uncut pebble
#

Combat shotguns need fat investment and talent points.

warm walrus
#

Also crusher isn't set in stone I'm open to anything

uncut pebble
#

I prefer accatran, the fire one, as it suppresses from any distance and can 2shot a bulwark once you open him up.

warm walrus
#

Rog

#

My eye is on relic blade maybe

#

Ds is obvious but I wanna experiment with other weapons

frank basin
#

Ds is nice on vet, but stupidly on zealot

uncut pebble
#

Relic blade is quite good but you'll have to get used to low mobility. I suggest an infantry autogun to pair with it. Pick your poison on model.

#

I run the agri model and abuse dance of death to pick off shooter trash from safe distances.

warm walrus
#

Also bonus to me trying to play like hlm

#

Throwing knives = biker's throwable cleavers

#

So most high level zealots go... ds, relic blade, what else assuming like havoc?

calm shard
#

crusher, knife, thunder hammer, and combat axe are all good too

#

thunder hammer is a bit more niche for havoc but it's funny for erasing problem monstrosities

warm walrus
#

gotcha, crusher has my eye cuz it's as close to a baseball bat as im getting

warm walrus
calm shard
#

well for Crushers just FOTF one shot them with thammer or crusher empowered attacks

#

Thammer can also just do it whenever with thrust

#

Knife is just a dueling sword but different

#

combat axe spams heavy attacks into their heads

frank basin
#

it also faster it suppose

#

knife has different blessing than ds

warm walrus
#

oops yeah im using crusher myself

#

its running flak+maniacs as well as slaughterer and skullcrusher

#

i can chunk a crusher with a chastise and an empowered crusher heavy, but not one shot. fotf is up now tho

tough tiger
#

The relic blade can kill anything at melee range, you'll only be pulling out the laspistol for the speed and also killing gunners/specials, which the laspistol excels at

winter grove
#

Always gonna be there to help you out

#

As long as you get around slow reloading and swap speed

#

right are we talking about vet or zealot

tough tiger
#

Zealot

winter grove
#

lmfao

warm walrus
#

I love bolter on vet

winter grove
#

zealot is fun and I play it frequently

warm walrus
#

Plasma's hard to click with

winter grove

but I have zero idea how to build one

#

so basically every zealot build I got isn't even mine

warm walrus
#

nah nah im about to dust my lvl 30 off for the event and he's a vet

#

need to rebless his bolter n stuff

winter grove
#

oh yeah vet bolter fucks

#

bolter overall fucks

#

although i am more of a bistol enjoyer

why wait for that fuse time when I can just like

warm walrus

yeah ive already got bolter so like, frags time

calm shard

kill the crusher in melee

1 krak kills 2 things at most

or spray them with a bolter

winter grove

oh true

tough tiger
#

Dont tempt ppl

I do use heavy sword in havoc sometimes

tough tiger

Ive been itching to run dclaw in havoc

warm walrus

lemme check. flak+maniac, cavalcade and pin fire?

#

Bolter

calm shard
#

But then I'm always using Bolter, Plasma, or Mk IV helbore with it

winter grove
#

i just run ds4 or rashad for havoc

calm shard

So I'd just shoot crushers/maulers

ds4 is just a crime

warm walrus

nah run ilasguns

warm walrus

ill admit i was tempted to go carapace and unyielding but that doesn't hit any breakpoints right

warm walrus
winter grove
#

yes

warm walrus
#

i wanna give kantrael 7 a whirl

winter grove
#

wait I forgot 2b isn't a meme

#

and is very much good

warm walrus
#

oh huh!

#

okay

winter grove
#

and also green one

warm walrus
#

yeah lasguns are fun to shoot so id be down to give 2b a shot

winter grove
#

it's also good

tough tiger
#

If u play monstrous maelstrom, use shattering impact and cavalcade

winter grove
#

ok hellbores are basically the worse lasgun picks I think?

tall torrent
tough tiger
calm shard
tough tiger
#

Also requires goof aim

calm shard
#

The main thing keeping Helbores down would be their abysmal draw and reload speed imo

warm walrus
#

alright fuck it im gonna try kantrael 2b

tough tiger
#

Reload doesnt matter much with shocktrooper anyway

#

Its just the draw speed

grand perch
#

Hm? Reload speed is pretty average on helbore

warm walrus
#

lets see
Thinking flak+maniac, ghost and... uh, forgot the other blessing

the melee'll have to be focused on anti heavy. brumomentum rashad axe?

#

shredder nades and survivalist aura

warm walrus

got it

#

rashad can do okay against chaff

#

uhhhhhhh...

#

rashad, rashad

rashad is super good into chaff you mean

tough tiger

Rashad is horde rapist

warm walrus

right

i was thinking of the overheads

how's it fare against heavies like crushers?

You need trench fighter to make rashad work on vet however

how do i do the focus target modifier. do i just do the middle mouse button on an enemy to spot them?

You can do it with puncuture with 0 mf stacks

That's what you're trading

winter grove
tidal niche
#

what does coherency mean or do

winter grove
tough tiger
#

The radius enables toughness regen and proccing of auras

calm shard
winter grove
#

^

calm shard
#

It's also the range of your classes aura

terse idol
#

well it regenerates faster iirc, depending on how many people are in coherency eh?

tall torrent
#

if teammate within 8m of u, u get coherency
passively regen toughness when not being targeted by enemies' melee attacks

#

coherency is a tether system

#

if ur in coherency with a teammate who's in coherency with 3rd teammate (who isn't in ur coherency radius of 8m)

#

all 3 of u are considered to be in 3-coherency

tall torrent
#

hypothetically, a gun with base 300 dmg and normal crit-weakspot 900

with full buffs (15x MF + deadly accurate + precision strikes), it would crit-weakspot for 2355
with full buffs (10x MF + deadly accurate + precision strikes), it would crit-weakspot for 2130

mental tendon
#

How exactly do i play the rightside path veteran?

#

Just stab people and thats kinda it?

winter grove
#

I mean you don't exactly need 300 IQ to use melee ngl

#

melee vet is fun

mental tendon
#

And what exactly do the smoke nades do?

uncut pebble
#

Smoke grenades make shooters keep firing at your last known position if they started shooting beforehand.

#

Best to throw them before gunners get shooting.

mental tendon
#

i see

winter grove
uncut pebble
#

It also apparently makes enemies attack slower in melee.

#

I can neither confirm nor deny this as I hate smokes and I do not play with vets that use them.

#

Nor have I ever found a smoke grenade vet in pubs.

calm shard
#

stalkers and shooters cannot shoot blindly into smoke, and dogs can't pounce you

#

Trappers and Flamers also need to get closer to start attacking

mental tendon
#

Oh

calm shard
#

Gunners will keep firing where they last saw you enter the smoke if they were already shooting, but can't start shooting if you were already inside it

mental tendon
#

Thats actually interesting for higher difficulty 🤔

calm shard
#

It also has similar AI shenaniganry to ogryn taunt but to a lesser extent where ranged enemies will try to enter the smoke to get line of sight to shoot at you

raw needle
#

i love smoking my teammates so that trappers shoot them point blank and they have no time to react

calm shard
#

here's a tip on how to counteract that

#

stab the trapper

#

she's 5 meters from you at worst just kill her

tidal niche
#

why does my power sword take so many hits to kill a stupid unarmored units

#

could you send me what i should use

#

Then send me a screenshot of what you are using

calm shard
tidal niche
#

its kinda hard to do when your getting shot at by 40 gunners all at once

calm shard
#

correct

#

this is why the power sword has faded in popularity now that there are other viable melee weapons

Hmm personally is not good stats

raw needle

its bad, dont waste your money

#

generally melk is only ever useful for buying curios

north nimbus
#

ok thx

tropic halo
#

You have more luck if you buy from the brunt armoury

raw needle
#

cause weapons you can easily get if you want to

north nimbus
#

to be fair no good drop for weapon so far on veteran

#

since i am new what is best way to get weapons

raw needle
#

get whites from brunt until you get a good roll

tropic halo
#

For early level players yeah i think is the best way if you struggling

north nimbus
#

well new since they did rework on stuff

north nimbus

i am struguling 😄

#

wait how i get weapon to be red????

tropic halo
#

It is a mod KEKW_ogryn

raw needle
#

mod

tropic halo
#

It just makes the weapons red when is max stats

raw needle
#

fun fact

#

there's a placeholder for red weapons ingame

#

basically what the mod uses

tropic halo
#

But yeah if you got good amount of dockets you can buy white weapons from brunt armoury until you get a good roll of stats

Like the one I sent above

also what are good blessings for the shock maul

I dont really use the shock maul KEKW_ogryn

Yeah you have to upgrade your weapons on hadron and make sure to level your mastery to the max

Or even Hammerblow Skullcrusher

But that one is more niche

what is dump stat for bloter weapons?

pseudo fiber

Bolter mobility bolt pistol collateral

mental tendon

okay i have to admit

#

flunging around with the combat knife is fun.

But after one mission i feel like i get carpal tunnel

tame lodge

Yeah that's about right

Lmao

Speaking of, is this a good knoife?

mental tendon

probably

raw needle

no

dump mobility

warm bolt

loregryn Ah, aight, thanks!

raw needle
#

some people dump pen with uncanny though

#

but that's like the top 1%

mental tendon
#

i also got to use the plasma gun now. Damn why did i sleep on it.

#

Probably because of Bolter overdose 🤔

#

It feels similar to Fire Warrior though 😄

I dobt use it because of how op it is

Just manhandle a heavy bolter with a fuckton of ammo

i think so i did a bunch of testing with someone a while back there are different bulwark stagger breakpoints at different distances

i just dont remember the numbers KEKW_ogryn

mental tendon
#

How exactly do you do the grenande-penance where it´s not supposed to hit the ground

#

just throw it really far with a lot of luck?

dawn garnet
#

wait till the very end of the mission

#

when you board the plane back usually a hoard spawns from the entrance

#

throw a grenade(s) to the entrance from the helipad it should be enough

mental tendon
#

i tried it so far against the walls

#

but that was usually like 2 seconds too ealry :/

dawn garnet
#

nah distance is your best bet

mental tendon
#

dawn garnet

i think you can also do it in other places but thats where i got it

oh also dont use kraks for it

they have less radius

i have shredders

ye good

dry cloak

Good

mental tendon

but i guess i combine stealth + long range than

dry cloak

Ask on lfg if some one is willo g to help

should work out either way

stealth isnt important for it i found a video

i need to do weeklys anyway

Best curios for veteran? rn I have hp, tpughness and stamina but I saw some ppl mention that double toughness is better sooo help

sacred igloo

I feel like gold toughness, toughness DR, and toughness replenishment are easy enough to get that double toughness is worth it more most of the time IMO

Try both though and see what you like more

I just like the way I have it rn tbh, but was curious for what would be the min max option

We were talking about it a bit last night

Why I’m running lacerate uncanny cause you can abuse the ever loving shit out of rending bleed which deletes hordes

That’s the biggest indicator you’re in a DHs range is the frost Starts covering the border of your screen

supple laurel

joking aside though whats some good melees besides DS for veteran

#

im tired of DS

#

was thinkin combat axe but is it any good

cloud thunder
#

I’ve been enjoying achalys psword

faint beacon
#

It’s literally the best melee in the game

tropic halo
#

Hmm, devil claw is fun for me but it is not too amazing against armor

supple laurel
faint beacon
#

Veteran has like 4 good melees and the rest are extremely dependent

faint beacon
#

DS is that overpowered

tropic halo

Shovel is a fun one if you wanna try to one tap most enemies

supple laurel
#

when in doubt nuclear warheads

tropic halo
#

I need to give the heavy sword a try for veteran loregryn

#

It is good on zealot but never tried for vet

faint beacon
#

Cause of lack of carapace damage

supple laurel
#

heavy sword is good on vet though iirc its not good against armor

tropic halo
#

Bolter is good for me pogryn

faint beacon
#

You’ll notice that with veteran

faint beacon
#

Pick one weapon forced to use Y to compliment it

tropic halo
#

I think I can tolerate it

supple laurel
#

can the heavy axe cut through armor?

#

i mean combat axe

#

im stupid

faint beacon
#

Combat Axe

tropic halo
#

I already spend too much time just beating a crusher with the devil claw alone KEKW_ogryn

faint beacon
#

If you do BM + Headtaker

supple laurel
faint beacon
#

Combined with Rending Strikes talent

#

And Elite Cara perks

#

You can 3 tap crushers with heavy spam

#

And still have good horde clear

#

Which is spamming lighting

tropic halo
#

if i remember the axe does struggle with cleave?

faint beacon
#

If you’re not running Brutal Momentum

#

Which gives it infinite cleave on kill

#

Basically kill enemy it’s damage doesn’t drop

#

So you can just

supple laurel
#

i assume combat axe dumpstat is mobility right

tropic halo
#

I used to play combat axe through my mid experience with the game and kept struggling with cleave on hordes but i might give a try again

faint beacon
#

Kill 4 poxers at the click of a light swing

supple laurel
#

k

faint beacon
#

Rashad is literally

#

The most overpowered melee in the game outside of mobility abuse

#

That’s DS

#

Knife used to be that but was massively dethroned

supple laurel
#

which combat axe mark should i use

analog mural
#

Rashad for finesse stat

faint beacon
#

I should mention you kinda have to go down the WS keystone path to pick up Trench Fighter Drill

#

That 10% melee speed is a huge difference on Caxe

supple laurel
#

trench fighter is a must have its fine

#

for me atleast

faint beacon
#

On veteran it’s literally a QOL talent but it’s not a must need at times

#

I’d say it’s a “if you can afford it”

supple laurel
#

what about iron will?

faint beacon
#

Caxe though? You kinda have too with Vet

faint beacon
#

But yes

supple laurel
#

im curious on your opinion

#

i think its a must have personally

faint beacon
#

That’s the handful of mandatory perks

#

Precision strikes, Iron Will, Tac Awareness, Demo Stockpile OR Demo Team depending on point tax

#

Those are like the 4 must takes

supple laurel
#

turning the combat axe into a shovel with weapon customization is diabolical

faint beacon
#

Honorable mention Desperado

#

That shit is insane on Veteran

#

I’d say superiority complex is also nice but that’s very build dependent

#

Honestly you’ll notice that a lot with vet

#

Your weapons massively shape your tree pathing

sacred igloo
#

Am I bad for feeling like I need suppression immunity on low fire rate weapons like helbore or infantry las

#

My instincts say yes

faint beacon
#

However

#

Infantry Las

#

You literally have to run determined

#

Or you can’t shoot anything

#

That’s how severe it’s suppressed downside is

#

So I mean I feel you’re just in the groove of not realizing other weapons might not need the talent cause honestly ILG is the biggest offender

sacred igloo
#

Fair I only really notice it on ILG

slow spade

Simply just aim better

I'll have to run helbore again without it and see

Anyone have any tips for this penance? I've just been using the Bolt Pistol with Crit Blessings. The trouble is that the weapon specialist buffs only last a few seconds and it ain't always guaranteed to get a weakspot crit. Pretty slow going on this penance so far.

faint beacon
#

I kid you not revolver

#

But it’s tedious

#

Veterans penances are very lengthy

slow spade
#

Revolver and bolt pistol have really generous weakspot hits

tropic halo
#

Honestly a bolter can be helpful

faint beacon
tropic halo
#

Oh wait, it said weakspot hits KEKW_ogryn

#

My bad

tight orbit
#

I think i tried the revolver already and didn't notice much difference, just maybe more accurate in comparison, longer reload too, didn't notice any higher amount of weakspot crits though. I'll give it a try again though.

faint beacon
#

WS Bolter usually isn’t good for obvious reasons

#

Long deploy time thus

tropic halo
#

thought it just said kill specails/elite with weapon specialist active KEKW_ogryn

faint beacon
#

Extremely short window to use the Ranged Stacks

#

Yeah it has to be the ranged stacks active

tight orbit
faint beacon
#

Which is 5 seconds

hearty panther
#

yea thats plenty of time

#

its only for the first shot anyway

faint beacon
#

Hence BP and Revolver are good for it

hearty panther
#

i do think it should be 10s just so that ranged attack speed also means something

faint beacon
#

I’d argue the Vigilants but I’d rather you get actual progress done

faint beacon
hearty panther
#

presently i dont either since we are mostly all playing into the critshot + always prepared

faint beacon
#

I kinda just wish it wasn’t so leaned towards get 1 ranged and get minimum 3 melee

hearty panther
#

but thats boring and one dimensional so it would be nice if that attack speed could actually last like the melee one does

#

then it would benefit other weapon types more noticably

faint beacon
#

On your toes

#

Is kinda good just it’s taxing

hearty panther
#

wut

#

the toughness on swap?

faint beacon
#

Yeah literally

hearty panther
#

what about it tho

faint beacon
#

Get like maybe 1 or 2 stacks on the side and you can just immediately swap to get out of bad situations

#

Especially 10 ranged stacks giving you like damn near max toughness lmao

tight orbit
#

i keep forgetting to get the most out of that in the heat of the moment, only really use it when a special comes around or something

faint beacon
#

It’s underrated but it’s understandable why people don’t take it

#

Mainly cause it taxes your talent tree

wicked cedar
#

Who ping me...

hearty panther
#

im

#

how do i say this

#

yea it doesnt

#

work like that at all

#

its only ever the one 20% per swap

faint beacon
#

Find that hard to believe with the insane toughness I’ve gotten from it

hearty panther
#

yea youre getting that from ... something else

#

cause its super uh

#

shit actually

faint beacon
#

That or just consistently swapping

hearty panther
#

3s internal cooldown just kills it imo

#

doesnt matter where you put it, if i can skip it id still skip it

hollow ibex
#

maybe i'm crazy but i don't feel like the 3s cd is that much

#

it's the pathing that kills it more often for me than the internal cd

hearty panther
#

it is and it isnt

#

it relegates it to being a supplemental

#

instead of something you could deliberately play into to farm

#

if im genuinely doing one melee > one ranged > one melee > one ranged through a crowd of shooters, im only earning toughness on some of those procs instead of all of them

hollow ibex
#

i mean why do you need to swap that often tho

hearty panther
#

so many reasons

hollow ibex
#

and you prob won't need 20% toughness literally every 2s

#

that node is always meant to be supplemental to O4B/CK/ET

hearty panther
#

sprint speed, dodges, blocking, sprint efficiency, reload swap, qq, etc.

hollow ibex
#

i really don't understand why any of those require you to swap after literally every kill 🤔

#

but i might just not be a pro gamer

hearty panther
#

toughness is something that ideally you earn if you meet its conditions and you want as few or as generous a condition(s) as possible

#

so to have it barred on a 3s cooldown imo, instead of guaranteed on a proc consumption

#

idk

#

dont care for it

#

dont like the idea of pressing Q, using up a pile of Ranged Specialist stacks, and not actually getting the toughness boost i was maybe fishing for

faint beacon
#

I tend to swap a shit ton when mainly playing WS cause you really only need 3 stacks of ranged minimum to get the Crit benefit

#

So suppose it’s very much a playstyle preference based node

slow spade
#

Bind attack and swap to the mouse1

#

Ez fix

hearty panther
#

if i dont press q once every 1000ms i will die

faint beacon
#

It’s true if I don’t swap my weapon minimum every 2 seconds my city will be nuked

wanton dawn

5s though

hollow ibex

yeah that's 5s
