Guess it shows how feelings arent objective

folding shovel is 1 special heavy and 1 special light
or just special light, light 3/4, push attack, and light once more
Maybe I'll be desperate enough to try it again
it's relatively fast
Why so desperate
though with thrust this can easily just outright one shot a crusher
For low melee investment builds
And I don't want to run DS
Now that I've tried relic blade I can't go back to PS
With how the math is, I think it can oneshot havoc crushers with max uncanny stacks and tag
Lmfao
what should i put on the spearhead boltgun mk2b?
Thats a lotta investment just for a shovel tho
Don't judge 😭
Eh, I run it on my helbore build
I mean oowersword hits pretty hard
And its fun to work around the powerup movement
It needs pretty much the same things as the shovel
shovel swings really fast having max uncanny stacks isn't a super bi ask
Yea but i prolly cant run it on mine sadly
Well I played PS a LOT a few months ago. We're just taking some time off from each other
Probably not unless you go for bring them down
I also do not run trench fighter
you don't need tag for it btw
Im in my powersword phase
Yeah tag lets you skip uncanny stacks
Cara + Unyielding
Shattering + Puncture
Screw that boss in particular
tbh i realized im just slowly going back into whatever i was using before havics came out
this screenshot is with only superiority comple, precision strikes, and desperado
also no thrust
Yea i got no points for that
I dont even have points for elite damage
My goal was to have a fast setup onetap
Shout ds plasma gun
Without tag, I needed uncanny stacks to get a consistent 1tap, I was getting like 20 hp left
Wothout uncanny stacks without crit
Carapace + elite?
With tag I am unsure if you need elite
Hmm
Maybe for h40
Tbh i never use tag
Im not at my pc so cant try it out rn
It feels like so jank having to tag everything one by one
I like it for a quick toughness gen option
See crusher, tag, onetap, everyone gets toughness
How much do u get for it
Not a lot
well Mk1 shovel can 4 tap them with a headshot special, 2 push attacks and a light
He gonna die by boredom in havocs before i kill him with ghat
To the group
Hmmm
Its a jank build for some jank weapons
I aint got enough points for it anyway
it takes maybe 3 seconds
Thing is hellbore kills everything else in one shot other than dreg ragers, muties, reapers, and carapace
Its a lot if im tryna fight 10 crushers and whatever is behind him thi
And dreg ragers can be staggered easily with the bayonet
The build i got which ill never run cuz i cant clutch shit on it can just 1 tap everything pretty much
but its so weak at survivability i aint bringing it
My clutchability with the hellbore is locked at heresy and below
At least assuming everyone is dead dead
I used it once in an auric maelstrom hard carrying
Everyone wiped and i cant do shit cuz the survivability is too low
Yeah figured with what you were saying
Yea its fun but aint fun if everyones dead
I do love exec stance
Me too
I hate it
Juet can never bring it
I don't need toughness, I need to become DOOMGUY
Man i hate shout
You don't like being over shield?!1?1!1?1? Burn des man!

Hit hit, dodge, hit hit, dodge, push, hit hit, shout
What are the blessings/perks/mark of a combat axe?
Check pins
A horde of mutant are charging at you and you use shout to stop all of them
Or I see the poor psyker getting fucked in the corner, run over and shout to put the enemies on their ass
This too
I use until with tdr
Nu. We playing APAC.
Oh right 
Shout at home
Playing with friend.
My goofy hellbore mk7 shovel build
Nah let them come to me, I will solo them all 
Id let all of them grab my booty
They can manhandle me one by one until im down on my knees
Gets thrown around like a basket ball

all this shit and I still need 5 MF stacks to one shot a crusher with a helbore shot
Is it worth it?
No
though I imagine being able to more reliably hit that one shot crusher/mauler breakpoint with the helbore would be kinda bad for the game
Brutal momentum, head taker, carapace, unarmoured

With maximum damage stats
Mobility dump
And trench fighter talent
For QOL

Just do FT lol
john warhammer, a classic
i went through 500k looking for the perfect blasma 🫄🥹
Bro
That's nothing for rolling plasma
the mk4 bayonet sucks is a universal constant like the sky being blue
what does that skin look like
Is this... the titan fall dmr?
show
OG are misaligned
what does that skin's base sights look like
better than base, I'll take it when it comes out
oh btw is that base weapon customisation no add ons?
i think its just base, but i do have the no sights plugin
but since no sight is default, i dont think that matters
either way I'm guessing brass (it's kinda brass coloured) bolt pistol and chainsword too
I've seen a version of this with a little logo put on the barrel but I'm assuming that was just done custom at this point
am i crazy or iis something really wonky with servers today
youre crazy
I was getting 130 ping in my home regions servers last night
nott just ping
i legit have mobs frozen but i can still move around then a miinute later, i'm low hp or downed
do what now
SEA is fine.
It sounds like your internet is getting throttled
Its rubber banding
Bro
Focus target. Don't need MF for one shotting crushers
Nah all my friends are having this issue
build completely unchanged aside from moving the MF keystone over to FT instead
like with 8 stacks yeah it one shots
but 5 doesn't
All ur friends internets throttling
One day i might try a mf plasma/ps build. Just to raise eyebrows
It'd be so bad though 
or
Mf is constant stacks tho
Nah
Yes
FT is way easier
instead of using focus target, the worlds shittiest least interesting keystone in existence
Don't need to baby stacks
U gotta press another button to tag
Cope and crabwalk more
I don't crabwalk because I can aim
Nah. Mod. 
I will just headshot a poxwalker or 2 if need be
Gay
No u
True
Mf is better for your dmg but ft is still better teamwise
or y'know given brute conscript I'll just go one shot a bulwark/reaper to get stacks to one shot the crusher lmao
why would I care about my team they're all using dueling swords and losing 1v1s to poxwalkers\
It doesn't even matter for damage when you reach the point of one shotting crushers
Fyck the team
Do that three times and by that time I wouldve killed all the crushers 
Cuz ft is also better utility, thoughness, stam regen and works in melee
For you included
Yeah I mean it's not even up for debate
Alt f4 wins
I don't care about any of that I want to one shot multiple crushers by myself
FT is stronger
not for what I want to do it fucking isn't
Alt f4
What alt f4 does ?
Instawin
Lets u instantly win and get all the rewards
Try it
calling the warp
Stop that
nah MF is needed
I got one shot at 3 stacks of FT
Best I can do is a strategically placed krak grenade
Am free now. Heh. Friend went to bed.

Watch Comically timed flamer detonation and millions of other Warhammer 40,000: Darktide videos captured using Medal.
Does anyone have a link to a good havoc build so I can have an idea of what I'm farming for
lmao wtf
That flamer be kinda moonwalkin

Doesn’t elaborate

Flamers everyone

hi
@steep flower you playing some high havocs or what
That crusher put to much butter on his shoes
Noob here at lvl 21, what ability do you recommend to use with focus target ? Using invisibility atm but not sure about its usefulness in a group
Voice of command is the easiest way to get started with vet
Take the left subnode
That gives over toughness
I never liked vet stealth
takes too long to get back
but maybe thats because im spoiled with zealot 😔
I just hate stealth period
An addition to what sirosky told ya
Don't take revive
On voc
And take tactical awareness
I find myself not needing it usually tbh
So it's generally up when I do need it
2 tired now
Nu, just dragging the resident heresy player through brutes and such. While just derping around.
😔
You never wanted to do it so...
i wasnt on!
Still, you are like, Auric boring. Havoc40 only.
Ya you right
So there.
i woulda done brutes but you dont ask 😛
also how did ur high havocs go? you play any
Not this week. I don't like doing havocs till I get my 40 done for the week tbh.
oh are you done this week alrdy?
No.
D:
Chaos only carry runs on weekends.
papa willy carry
You mean you?
is my name papa willy?
id have to play knife zealot i think
Hrm?
Also, who was it that wanted proof of gambling with downs with my Zealot build?
Or ehm, they can't even dooking wound me so I just go down instead of die.
Was it Chonky?
@vernal trench Was it you who wanted like proof about my stupid build that will down me instead of kill me if I get overheaded?
While doing TS?
Aren't you playing with LFG?
Ya i just joined a lobby
Yes
Check DMs.
Me smurt, yes. Some will say dying instantly is better.
Iron will allowing you to eat overheads
No. Zealot things.
Iron will is a vet talent
Something undying or whatever the fuck the talent is where you just don’t die
until death
I don’t play zealot enough
Yes, but that still means your HP is corrupted to 1.
1 HP
The overhead couldn't even wound me with corruption.
55 toughness, 224 HP at that point.
I took about a third of my HP in corruption.
Which went away while I was panicking.
No
VOC + IW
Then u have other sources of DR
Iron will by itself is nowhere enough to tank overhead
45% corruption resist, lul.
it's ~38.6% total
I get whwt u mean now
To be fair, we gave up on TS that day since server was bad.
F
But yeah, 2 HP for like 4 mins lul.
I dunno, but DMed it.
she didnt tank it
it was until death
yea ik
idk why that turned to iron will
TDR doesn't affect corruption
she said she has corruption resistance
Yes, it was more, you wanted to know if I could eat a crusher overhead without straight up dying. Assuming no or on CD Until death, the amount of corruption damage would just only down me instead of outright kill.
have u tested this
what are the best secondary stats on curios for a veteran?
Pretty hard to unless someone wants to sacrifice their 40.
I just assumed I have enough HP to take it since I was dropped to 2 HP over the usual 1.
its 2 hp alot of the times instead of 1
i highly doubt u can tank an overhead and not straight die
Shrugs.. I usually thought people died cos the corruption puts them to less than 1 wound.
Or well, instantly fills the bar in cases.
So if you took less than a full wound of corruption, you should just go down instead?
That was to be expected. Is why I'm just wondering if my build will just cause a down over death.
Because I have seen others eat an overhead with Until Death and was left at 1 HP and everything else corrupted.
Should I use the mk7 vigilant or mk4 helbore
Auric, use anything. Whatever you feel comfortable with.
Two very different guns tbh
Combination preference varies but all of these are good: cooldown reduction, hp, toughness, gunner res, stam regen, sprint efficiency
Have a question, how easy is it for you to land headshots with the hellbore lasgun? I have quite a bit of trouble landing shots that don't end up being body shots that I aimed too low, and also: isn't the weapon a little too ammo efficient? I think I had troubles running out of ammo, at least in auric missions
Pretty easy
Fairly easy, its mainly about dealing with the shit irons
And the ammo economy is intentional
Really, guess I'm really not built for sniper work, really suffering to land headshots
HP toughness sprint eff ordo dockets gunner/sniper resist
Honestly I like the irons on the hellbore
Servers can also be jank
I missed the p2w helbore skin that gave good irons
Reeeee
I just use the mk4
Honestly I’ve always preferred iron sights in games rather than optics
Could be much better though
Besides snipers I barely ever put scopes on my weapons
This is just taste. i prefer a proper scope.
Or something that looks kinda like one.
Also depends on the game cuz if its insurgency sandstorm I’ll put a scope
Give it a holo sight
Something simple like just a plastic square with a dot in the middle
I was trained irl to put the target above the aim sights, it really mess up the wiring on my brain
Basically.
You know the 1.5x scopes in Payday?
OKP-7 my beloved
Well, 2.
Yeah I hate the optics that are just a big ass square block
Irl iron sights suck but love them in video games
DMR and Snipers with actually good irons for some fucking reason
Biometric Analyzer Optic in Payday 2.
If you can find pics of it.
Basically the scope I use on everything except actual snipers.
LMGS are completely hit or miss
I can't find pics of it that isn't the straight up store page of the DLC pack.
Ah, it's a 1.25x scope.
Basically red dot.
nuh uh
simo hayha disagrees
Any damage reduction perks in curio worth it besides gunners and snipers?
And what other perks in general
For me just gunners I wouldn’t run snipers
Snipers are incredibly situational but gunners are actively helpful
Outside of that not really
I think sniper is worth taking one of
Wouldn't do more than that
Mostly did toughness related stuff obviously as a veteran
Took stamina and sprint
Cdr
Stamina regen not super useful for veteran unless u take specific talents
How I know what and in what amount a weapon scales with finesse damage?
Inspect the weapon, check the damage table for normal damage vs weakspot damage
The difference is what's finesse damage? Weakspot extra damage?
The difference is the “bonus damage on weakspot/crit/crit weakspot”
Which is what finesse related damage bonuses scale from
When people talk about finesse in this game they could be referring to a couple things. Generally finesse is Crit/weakspot damage, but it could also be the finesse stat on a weapon which affects those numbers aswell as attack speed
So the stacked marksman focus increases that damage, keep the base but once you crit/WP hit you deal a % more?
Yes
I’ll give u an example
Let’s say u have a gun that does
300 base damage
900 total damage on crit-weakspot hit
If u have
Marksman Focus (10 stacks)
Deadly Accurate IV
Precision Strikes
You now deal a total of 2130 damage on crit-weakspot hit

If the number in dW, dC and dCW is big, the weapon is good finesse scaling
I will try this formula to check some weapons for it then, thanks
No more Crit Damage. This ape only wants Finesse damage!
Finesse really can just boost some rifles up to ludicrous damage numbers
Do note that finesse is just one of many damage modifying effects
Other damage bonuses don’t work the same way finesse does
So wait, the hellbore Mk V has lower finesse than the vigilant or infantry guns? I have been living a lie?
The point of that weapons isn't weakspot damage but it's good damage to down targets even on bodyshots and armor piercing?
is 10 stacks of MF enough, or if I can pick up 15 stacks, should I?
no
@tall torrent also does o4b just give flat 5% toughness?
those are 2 other high finesse guns
also worth noting, a weapon may have different d? values against different armor types
5% from every kill
upgrades melee kills to be 10%/kill
15 stacks feels better for faster weapons
camouflage feels better for slower weapons
Yeah, hellbore seems like a can opener in comparison
so mk iv (the slow firing one, I think is the mk) should have camouflage?
imo, anyway
40 percent toughness recovery from a single swing 
The ogryn melee experience
Except vet can attack way faster than ogryn 
They are allowed to light attack, ogryn doesn't have that luxury
Yeah basically
Well which is fine bullygryn be making
ALOT OF TOUGHNESS

fucking helbores how do they work
If not ogryn or caparace sometimes clicking on head is optional, my biggest issue is landing bodyshots, but that still set me eliminating most enemies that don't need bayonet treatment
you can pretty much oneshot anything with helbore with good build
its glass cannon build
Well I'm open to suggestions build wise because yeah
I still don't like it that much
exe stance + mf is good idea
I mainly run the heavy helbore
10 mf and exe with heavy helbore one shots crushers
I run it with counterfire to also target enemy ranged
Something like this?
yeah thats what I run
In my experience the crouching node isn't that great, particularly because if you headshot kill enemies you can move freely with ease
actually I run 15 stacks
but you can also just take the base option
use that point somewhere else if you need it
it's really up to preference
15 stacks or camo
For executioner stance only the counter fire node?
you cant take ogryn with counter fire
and the aura share is not bad
buut with randos probs not
if you have a premade, it can be good info
I run focus target
bear in mind it will only share elites
(I think)
idk if the aura share also accounts your upgrades
before I ask the guy
let me consult the holy scriptures
None
None of them are necessary
Exe stance works without any subnodes
if you want to actually be decent teammate
counter fire is good for being the anti ranged guy
trust me in auric damnation and havoc (most likely) you'll have a lot of ranged
Really? So you sustain it by killing elites with tactical awareness?
yeah only elites and specialists
No point sustaining it for minutes on end
Because marksman is strength on using ability
U keep it running when u need to
And reactivate when u need to
I would concur being able to see auras is worth it
info is strong
Team share vision is strong
For vent purge and lights out
And premade
talking about counterfire I mean
But it very heavily depends on ur ability to kill outlined enemies before ur team does
As for counter-fire
you'd be surprised by how many vets do not actually kill ranged
I don’t think it matters that much personally
they play them like zealots
a lot of missions would end up failure if I wasn't the anti ranged vet
Because ranged horde enemies are not challenging enough outside of havoc
you would GENUINELY be surprised
Nah fuck team sharing vision
in the rando matches I had
Gimping yourself
I wouldn’t be surprised
if I did not run counterfire, we would just end up failing
But I also wouldn’t think about it much
It’s really easy to push shooters into melee outside of havoc
Was running a stealth build in auric and can confirm, really people let me kill all the ranged enemies because they are stuck clearing melee, even if is not the main menace
No point playing long range point & click game with them
Kill gunner first with jiggle peak via cover then charge shooters into melee
in open areas, you are really not going to push through
I like the idea, but there's been times I've gotten my ass handed to me by thinking I can do that
I think counterfire matters for like 3 guns total 
I do see what you mean, I really do
but a lot of areas in the game are open and only have few instances of cover
you won't be in cqb all the time
especially shit like carnival finale
a lot of enemies on high and gunners in the range
you cannot feasibly run into the open to charge them into melee
In my experience, and not havoc, I can sustain it for a long time killing 4 gunners, many fodders and then another set of gunners all in the middle of a horde, that without counting the reapers and other melee stuff
counter fire just lets me keep track of where every shooter is
Mercantile finale is one of the few situations I think long range actually matters
But that still wouldn’t be a counterfire pick for me
well your build with the exe stance for helbore
I've been running it and I really love it
and you do have few talent points left over
so I just decided to pick up counterfire
I can't say it's failed me
How is your build meant to look?
I run this build currently
I just don’t play those guns very often
And if I do I still wouldn’t run counterfire tbh
you can pick camo if you want to
On havoc it resets a lot of nades so I understand why it's seen as really useful
I think they’re good value for auric too
Can confirm
if i'm in bad spot, I just chuck like 2-3 grenades
save 1 if teammates goes down maybe
Don't even need nade packs almost at all
by the time I need them, I have all or at least 2 back
Especially for exe stance which has far worse space-making than other abilities
Nobody else fucking picks up nades... I don't mind getting 5 more even w/ double regen.
if you want demo team and twinned blast, take off 15 stacks and forgo counter fire
you really don't need counterfire, but the aura of being able to see shooters does change your role
Sometimes people keep nades for the next game, had teams die with full nade counts
can also take off tac reload
I personally use it because with mf, it just lets you reload super quick
lets me keep up exe stance to keep seeing auras
Am I unlucky or twinned blast just doesn't work? I don't recall ever getting a second nade from it
it works, 20% of the time
36% actually

There are just better things to pick than twinned blast. That's why I don't run it...
One is gambling with a resource, the other is a happy surprise in the form of said resource
I guess if you're RP too hard as a grenadier I can get wanting it !
I always undervalue % chance skills in every game I play. I'd rather have a consistent reliable boost than a chance at something
ok tbf if you forced me to pick ONE gambling perk
I'd rather go demo team
because elites and specialists are plentiful on auric damn
demo team in maelstrom yess my precious
twinned blast i'd have to wait another minute to even try it again
Not many, for havoc anyway
twinned blast smoke build
Wouldn't it be good that when you pick an ammo from a source your next nade has a mini-nade? To remove the randomness of it
I have accidentally played havoc a few times but didn't bother since everyone in there was turning into edgey zealots. Am I missing out?
havoc is just higher than auric damnation
it's basically like cata from vermintide
if you want to have fun, nah
No because u can throw like 100+ grenades in a havoc while getting only 10-15 ammo pickups
Ah, you mean from the other perk, that could be an issue
I think if it’s to get buffed, buff to 30% chance
This way 2 frags has 51% chance to proc it at least once
Which “feels” a lot better than 36% chance
I didnt play very much vermintide. I do a lot of maelstrom, currently its fun and don't always win
well take it that
auric maelstrom
even if you make a mistake, you can still win
from what I see about havoc 40
one mistake is the entire mission is over
yes buff frags pls
you can decide if you find that fun or not
vermintide was basically same
you had legend, then they added cataclysm
somehow people wanted harder
and modded these insane difficulties
It’s more like
2-3 people make mistake at around the same time, then u get fked
My aim for the year is to reach and clear havoc 40
Stretch goal of doing it at least once per class
Hoping to make a havoc 30 soon, then when I get all gear ready might aim to 40
Biggest tips i can give are to stick together, don't push ahead quickly, coordinate ults
The big one is pushing ahead quickly. If you do that you'll get a boss spawn + scab captain spawn, aggro elite patrol, and then a horde will spawn while you're trying to manage all that shit
As soon as you hear a boss spawn or elite patrol, pull back. Retreat. Deal with the threat, then you can advance
Is there a fast way to knock out killshot ready penance? Thinking of just recon lasgun into a horde for kills
pretty much it imo, thats the way I did it
Damn. High intensity Heresy it is then.
genuinely do not get who thought 2,5K kills was a good idea
Can u handle a 30?
I've done like 3 ranks of havoc with a friend before I decided this was boring and we went to do auric damnations lol
Havoc 3?
What are u most comfortable with or where do u start feeling a challenge when u play normally
I can consistently do auric maelstrom with decent randos
maybe really tough maelstrom modifiers
Like wat
Havoc 3 is just malice
yeah
Yea
I stopped doing it because of that, and theres no material in havoc
I needed diamantine to 100% rest of the guns
How do I get the Long Bomb Penace done?
u get 25k diamantine every week from h40
Remind me what the conditions are?
idk like combination of wave of specialists with chance of them being monstrosities
thing is I'm comfortable with any difficulty and any modifier
it's just randos
No bouncing the grenade against any surfaces while getting 5 kills.
I mean i think ull be okay playing on havoc 20 atleast
Ah, that's easy. Queue ascension riser, wait on the starting side of the bridge, throw a grenade at the horde that spawns on the other side when your team advances.
but if u compare auric maelstroms to havoc 40 its not even comparible
Iirc a shredder will travel 30 or so meters before it explodes, you can drop a ping to measure the distance.
The 1st For the Emperor Penace is the only one I have trouble with, I completed the penaces required for the other ones.
never done havoc, so I can't say
To me the difference is like
Havoc 40 to auric maelstroms
Is like auric maelstroms to heresy
I mean the only thing I know is that theres no grace between damage
so gunners can instakill you
Long bomb wasn’t terrible but I have 4 penances left and still haven’t done make every shot count
use the revolver and waste ammo on most enemies, then just dont use it again lol
Eveeything has 1.5x health and do a lot more damage
If u play vet u will down in 3 hits by even chaff
My problem was that I accidentally shot dead bodies cause the death animations made them look like they were still alive.
I just used the Stub Revolver at Hordes.
Yeah that got me a lot because of high speed zealots
Gunners are probably the most significant change in havoc vs damnation
a single little gunner can down u if ur not careful
i would say shooters
they are worse
Yea little gunners
Zealots kill enemies right when I shoot them so I shoot at nothing.
more numerous, can't be marked, covers more
I mean its usually a ton of them stacked up thats when it gets deadly
If someones jumpign straight into h40 the increased armored spawns will be pretty daunting too
Its like the melee only maelstrom amount of armored elites but regularly depending on what spawns u get
Hi intensity brutes plus pox gas. Am I cooked?
I love mobain 21st 40s my psyker has a great time
I love it for my powersword
chonky doesnt play h40 dont let him fool you
Na i play heresy only

Im pulling all this info out my ass
I don’t play Havoc. I stick to aurics for my own sanity
Im waiting for havoc update its getting stale
Noob
with papa willy
Tbh power sword with sunder would go hard
pro
In havoc
u know what else is hard
I only play the tutorial. Every time it finishes I make a new character
heresy?
Shit same
Malice
Its too hard im going back to whatever is between sedition and malice
Forgot the name cuz i suck
i only play maelstroms cuz im a 1700 zealot
checkmate
I play with the hidden cameras in stompts room
I have the hardest time in Auric with the vet. All my other classes hold up, but I like me helbore and don’t want to quit
@paper umbra ?
hell yeah
I run helbore in auric maelstrom, I think youre doing something wrong
Uprising.
Pretty much all my perks are into crits and damage. I’m super squishy. That and I stick with the shovel
Post your weapons and talents.
(you are about to be ripped limb from limb by a pack of wild dogs)
Yea thats it thats my jam
hell yeah
(I am a pack of wild dogs)
Alright lol. Gotta make it
frog is here to rip ur build apart
i heard he only plays heresy though which is far better then me
He gonna be ribbit ribbit
True hes just better
heresy players are too good
just built different
Hey man if u get good enough maybe one day u can play auric maelstroms like cheese
hell yeah
i wish
I aint that good too bad im never getting there
if youre really good, one day you'll also participate in an actual darktide mission irl
chonky is building his own darktide level in minecraft rn
unfortunately for you, you're not a main character
No way
you're also not a named space marine
Imma be like cheese and soloing an auric maelstrom in mibecraft
hell yeah
Thats what im talkin about
hell yeah time to rip this guy apart
Don’t judge me too hard lol
Get a +3 stam imstead of 2 health
Now I must wait 87 years for Opera to fucking load it.
get catch a breath instead of gbitf
also +1 stamina at top instead of movement speed
also idk is born leader any good?
every time i see gbtif typed out like that i feel like its a shorthand for some sort of egregious insult
I just get for the emperor
very strong in havoc
in auric the choice doesn't matter
Gbitf?
I imagine theres smth in havoc that fucks with your toughness?
you guys are beating heresy?
very fair my bad og
Yeah usually I just lose it super quick so I threw those on
havoc has reduced toughness for players
u can find zealot and psyker with like 50~70 toughness lol
You dodging? Sprint sliding? Dodge sliding?
but born leader only procs if your own toughness is not 100% no?
Can I avoid desperado if I am using a dueling sword or does the perk pair well with it?
I dunno, I never played havoc
Usually yeah, but there’s always a time when I get smacked because my guy jumped instead of dodged
Change your curios to 2 17% toughness and a +3 stam curios, ability cdr on curios is bad, you could run gunner resist instead, change get back in the fight to catch a breath, change target down to redirect fire on your keystone, not going to comment on the double toughness generation you've got going on up top because I honestly find out for blood to be a little underperforming for ranged builds. You could get around the weapon swap speed issues by running executioner's stance, as that makes your helbore draw instantly, and it would help a lot for breakpoints.
I feel like duelling sword doesnt need melee talents, its good on its own
someone lied to me
or it didnt work that way
Theres your problem. Rebind dodge to a different key
I remember born leader only worked if you also didnt have 100% toughness
i believe it used to not, but either way, it does now
Always take ability cooldown on ur curios dont listen to frog
its a tremendous resource for your team in havoc, since my squishy ass runs around with 65 toughness on psyker
Ur gonna need that extra one or two seconds on havoc trust me
Guys. He getting hit because he’s jumping instead of dodging!!!
it means if im in range to get your gold toughness from shout it will ALWAYS push me into gold
even if im at 0
wait you can rebind keys in this game?
check dm, u still want that session or nah
Wait u can dodge?
you're generating toughness all the time for everyone, which is nice
so if I had to pick born leader or for the emperor
I guess in auric maelstrom it doesnt matter
the interaction with VoC is just a very nice bonus for safety, since you would otherwise shout and 'only' give a psyker 50 flat toughness, which might not push them into gold range
Thought gbitf would be better than catch a breath. Don’t really know distance in the game.
Havoc = born leader
Below havoc = doesn’t matter
it's loading up that chinese spyware first 
catch a breath is 8 meters, if youre in melee you'll get toughness from kills
it's always active, gbitf is very niche
That’s fair
Catch a breath is also huge for dealing with shooters.
Constant toughness regeneration for existing.
GBITF was much more useful back when you could be stunned by gunners and shit
well, not even back then
Oh that’s fair. I’ll swap them
pair it with O4B, you can get back from most hits
Desperado is a free 25% headshot damage for ds, you want that talent.
you'd much rather generate toughness at a distance
you know what was better than GBITF? Thy Grenades Be Swift
it's definitely saved my hide... twice prob
Nah, can skip if stretched for points
DS doesn’t need a lot of talents on veteran
Dueling Sword doesnt need shit to be ridiculous, may as well skip any melee bonuses
Yeah but how would you be stretched for points on a duelling sword build?
Pulling DS into a recon build, for example
it's like adding a stack of TNT to a nuke
I really wanted to get that extra +5% crit hit chance node under close and kill but ran out of points
Also is shovel really the best weapon with helbore? Just need something for close range damage and occasional horde
heavy sword better imo
helbore has really good single target
so what you need is a good horde clear melee
that's low investment
but yea helbore is single target
that's the heavy sword exactly
The one shot heavy alt melee is great but takes forever to charge
I’ll try a run or two with the heavy sword
One shot crusher does feel nice though
Roger that. I won't take it off my build. Trying to refine my commissar build
Being one shot by a crusher feels nicer
oh yeah there's power sword too of course
Thought they nerfed that heavily
Never used it before just read on some forum it was.
Its so hot i cant stop watching iy
Literally u @latent parcel
U noob
Ogryn is nice. Big friendly guy.
😔
Hes the size of a walmart but has a brain the size of his pinkie
And I thought I was bad at Maths.
I'm an autistic lady who dumped maths. Heh.
You got ogryn brain too?
@latent parcel @vernal trench the goats 🔥
Naw. Gremlin vet here.
ah

Aww man I wish I was as good as a 1700 zealot!
A true legend he is
I realised i forgot to switch my build from plasma one to helbore one mid-mission 
I have no idea but it just didnt save the changes
Okay I messed around. Swapped back desperado, but I think this looks better for a commissar

I was wondering why i still could voc but didnt pay it any mind for some time
@tall torrent Got a curiosity question for you regarding Tunnel Vision, the Toughness replenishment is it more so added onto lets say like- other Talents that give you increased toughness or is it literally just 5% toughness per stack of MF you get
Mainly cause im trying to figure out seeing im running a VA build with MF, if I should do CK or O4B
like which one in the long run would get more value out of Tunnel Vision
Do y’all think VoC or Stealth is better?
Different purposes Voc>>>
My friend insists I should use voc for havoc but I like using stealth more?
Is it still viable
at 10 stacks it's x1.5 to melee kill & talents' toughness gain
this value is reduced by certain player debuffs (like fire and gas)
yea
Thanks
Stealth isn’t about being viable its about being useful for your team
Which makes it viable since its useful
So its not just a get stack and receive a flat 5% toughness to your toughness bar
but rather

increase to your talents that give toughness
cause if thats so
im wondering if CK or O4B would be more valuable
paired with Tunnel Vision
whats the best weapon and difficulty to get marked for death
Is that the 2500 mf kills?
no
this one
im pretty sure ADS counts as it
its been ages since I've done it though
if it did, wouldve had it by now
or im pretty sure i wouldve
I'd say safest bet is the Slug Shotgun run shooter node on Exec
slug is agripinaa right
I'll check one moment
Yes it is
shooter node?
ohhh
makes it super fucking easy
cause Exec Stance is an Upgrade version of Volley Fire
so it counts
Its any weakspots
towards any "Volley Fire" penances
Yes
so basically just hit 4 headshots using slug rounds in exe stance
Or any gun really
you ready for my scriers inferno psyker with no keystone the next time we play?!
i dont think ill be able to load the slugs fast enough for that
Sounds as bad as i smell bad

its good. trust!
ask chonky
CK
mainly cause im asking to see which would be better with a Agri IX build thats using MF
Correct
can it be the same enemy or 4 different enemies
Thats the point; i don’t smell bad
