hollow ibex

for horde clear

#

if you want single target damage, mk7

fervent hemlock
#

feels like that takes too much set up to be useable

hollow ibex
#

all the shovels are kinda mid tho

calm shard
#

clearly the solution is to nerf the damage on the sweepy heavies but give them real cleave by base

hollow ibex
#

i think it's more just the moveset mk6 gets is far superior

tall torrent
#

Jump off map, teammate speed run without reviving u

hollow ibex
fiery raft
#

i just tried it

#

what an improvement

hollow ibex
#

vs. the mk3's light attacks for horde clear (low cleave, horrible at hitting weakspots) + heavy attacks for single target (slower than mk6 push attacks)

agile forge
#

Honestly I think my Zealot will switch over too

#

been dogmatic about the 3 without even trying the 6

fiery raft
#

what would i do for building combat knife?

#

never done it

tame lodge
#

Uncanny with Riposte or Precognition

#

Mobility 60%

#

Always aim for weakspots

hollow ibex
#

knife's also pretty talent point hungry

fiery raft
#

why's that?\

hollow ibex
#

depending on the build you need to grab stamina regen delay reduction, precision strikes, serrated blade, and then trench fighter

#

so basically all over the place

fiery raft
#

alright

#

also

#

personal question

#

best shovel mk?

#

what do you guys think

faint beacon
#

Mk1 no argument there

#

Mk3 and 7 exist but they just get outclassed by other melee options and Mk1 kinda has its own thing going for it

remote sonnet
#

Even mk1 is outclassed, but it is more versatile than the other 2 with the usable special.

supple laurel
#

tanner suggesting onslaught:

#

(i know he does because i fell into that trap from him)

agile forge
#

Serrated Blade is just for if you wanna go mercy killer iirc

#

but that's a fun way to build it

tribal tangle
#

Mk7 Shovel fun. Crusher 1shotting fun

serene bough
#

i dont think mercy killer is worth

#

uncanny + riposte/precog/FT is good enough

hollow ibex
#

MK is pretty good but yeah, taking serrated blade can hurt

terse idol
#

if yer maining for mercy killer it's not the wooorst

#

Uncanny Mercy killer with serated

serene bough
#

its not bad damage im just not a fan of the serrated blade talent tax

gilded wraith
#

Serrated Blade had some odd (negative) interactions with brittleness when Reginald tried it out with Bloodletter on the chain axe.

faint beacon
tall torrent
#

riposte and flesh tearer are both better

faint beacon
#

It serves 0 purpose outside of that

faint beacon
#

Idk about psyker

#

But Veteran was his ground 0

tall torrent
#

then veteran

faint beacon
#

Seriously

tall torrent
#

but he got flamed harder for the veteran one because veteran players are more mathematically obsessed

faint beacon
#

YEAH THAT SOUNDS RIGHT LMAO

#

Probably why I never heard of the “end all be all psyker guide” from him

tall torrent
#

but also

#

psyker players never agreed on anything

#

so trying to do a conclusive guide for them is basically impossible

#

pygex's guide is pretty controversial amongst psyker players

#

(he also got a lot of things wrong)

frank ledge
tall torrent
#

but frankly that's almost every guide by everyone except like 5 or so people

frank ledge
#

A lot of psykers don't know the truth about taxe

faint beacon
#

Taxe is so incredibly fucked on Meleeker if you run Zarona

tall torrent
pallid jetty
frank ledge
#

They should, the administratum may send one of their ships to Atoma in 200 years if Ranick refuses to declare his taxes

topaz hollow
#

i think atoma might be soon due to their tithe

#

if were retaking all of the tank factories and capturing abandoned ones to restart production

#

besides the inquisition is already there. if anything theyd be aware already theres something going on

#

and wouldnt push too hard for the tithes since... its already ongoing

#

this whole thing that is

tall torrent
#

tithe could be an interesting plot point for sure

#

for now the focus is on the cult tho

topaz hollow
#

im certain theres going to be a noble at some point later that will betray, one of them at their hands in this afterall

tribal tangle
#

Theres an ogryn rework coming with the next major update right?

tall torrent
#

a good ogryn rework would have at least 10 of their weapons being massively buffed

#

let's see if fatshark is willing to go that far

tribal tangle
#

well we can dream anyway shrug

#

Make charged pmaul with thrust 1shot crushers with a heavy. Why not, it might actually get used

supple laurel
#

they put the effort of nerfing ogryn into the fucking ground

#

im sure they have the effort to buff them

frank ledge
#

Even with weapon changes, Ogryn issues are core level

tall torrent
#

most problems are with their weapons being overwhelmingly underwhelming

#

and not having dodge linger mechanic whatsoever

tribal tangle
#

And them moving the explosion radius so I cant get it with the rumbler and my melee build anymore RAGEY

frank ledge
#

After the bleed and rending changes Ogryn's 2 main damage avenues were cut

#

Ammo economy and havoc hp scaling hit Ogryn the most

#

with gunker been a close second

latent parcel
tall torrent
tribal tangle
#

Gunners are gonna make pretty much anything but shield a pain in the diiick

#

I'm sure you can use anything though

latent parcel
#

Pickaxe ogryn is problay strongest melee ingame

#

can almost do psyker level of damage just cant compete with infinite cleave

frank ledge
austere mica
#

Specifically because of finesse

#

Hard to compare when zealot has an entire extra avenue to stack damage

frank ledge
#

Which goes back to the main issue, Ogryn rending and bleed changes made him loose dps, use his generally meh talents to compensate the dodge cooldown

#

Don't forget critical hits

#

Poor Ogryn can't crit build either, outside of Glugger range*

latent parcel
#

ogryn puts out massive dps

tribal tangle
#

bring back monstrosity slap stunlock dab

Holy peak

latent parcel
frank ledge
#

Relic blade has better performance with mass maniac and even armor.
Hsword has better horde and maniac performance

latent parcel
#

Then a karsolas?

#

You must not play ogryn

frank ledge
latent parcel
#

show me a zealot putting out 1.8mil

#

with a relic blade or heavy sword

frank ledge
#

And that's the issue, lack of oveproof

latent parcel
frank ledge
#

Instead of looking at e peen measuring, look at the weapon cleave values, dps.

Karsolas won't sustain the upper hand the moment anything but pure trash comes, mixed hordes, the norm in havoc lowers the dps heavily due to poor maniac scaling like most ogryn weapons are. Even basic flak armor lowers karsolas dps due to mass vs cleave

Add in the occasional charge burst and finess multipliers+crit and zealot is outputtinf 1.4x times our possible average

latent parcel
#

I guess if u say so

#

relic blade zealot aint out putting that kinda damage

frank ledge
#

This is the issue and why Ogryn hasn't stood up yet, only a handful of us have done the actual math vs other classes

#

Scoreboard ain't mattering, we talking about ingame stats, not per match performance

latent parcel
#

lol ok i wont even argue then.

wanton dawn
#

Arguing is tiring Sitgryn

frank ledge
#

It really is when you constantly see the same bs thrown about instead of using data provided

wanton dawn
#

No data, only duel sword !

latent parcel
#

the day i see maff use a dueling sword may be the last day of darktide

frank ledge
#

I'm sick of seen 3 mits and 3 dueling swords in havoc

wanton dawn
#

Whats a mits ? A shortened name for wool gloves ?

latent parcel
#

no idea

frank ledge
#

I wish those would be cool on our ogryns for gloriana

#

Mitigation, VoC, bubble, Chorus

latent parcel
#

i cant wait for ogryn buff though. that way i can do more dps then psyker!

wanton dawn
frank ledge
#

Could count loyal protector too, but that's more of a dps increase that Fatshark didn't anticipate KEKW_ogryn

wanton dawn
#

VoC has been the best vet ult since talent tree rework

latent parcel
#

Maff said hes bringing exe stance next time into havoc pogryn

frank ledge
#

Yes

#

But it's boring

topaz hollow
#

if they had made different animations for other melee weapons id been using them so tired of having the characters use the fist cuff stance like its any good on all the weapons

#

"im hungry for battle ahh"

frank ledge
#

Dueling sword is also among the best weps about, but it's boring

topaz hollow
#

dueling sword animation so zesty 🙂

wanton dawn
#

I don't like ds that much. Not what i look for in a melee

#

I had more fun with shovel

latent parcel
#

i only use DS when i want my overkill to be higher then my actual damage

topaz hollow
#

oh yeah most other weapons have something interesting about them but all of their 3rd person iddle animation are ass

wanton dawn
#

Otherwise i just pick ps6 and be done with it

#

Worse defensively sure

frank ledge
#

Have you considered shock maul, results may shock you

wanton dawn
#

Nah. Its crap on bosses

#

I hate having poor dmg against an armor class

#

Low infested on boltgun was tolerable cuz it never mattered

frank ledge
#

Lord chaxe calls then

#

All 3 of it's left users would appreciate you

wanton dawn
#

I did try it. Shame to have such good blessing on a weapon with such crap properties

#

Plus it is a shorties weapon

#

Look dumb

#

Make it 2 handed ffs

frank ledge
latent parcel
#

Maff u play ogryn so i can play my vet next time we do h40's

frank ledge
#

Almost forgot lsword exists

wanton dawn
#

Plus why me playing vet prevent you from ? whatthefuck_heresy

latent parcel
#

u take all the ammo

wanton dawn
#

I can adjust eh

#

Am usually the only dude with an actual "ranged" so yeah

#

Those specialists won't kill themselves

frank ledge
#

You could run the build JohNoAmmo uses

#

Altho helbore for havoc is a bit iffy

opaque cypress
#

i main psyker so playing power sword is my way :)

#

infantry autogun my beloved

frank ledge
#

Havoc gunker Sitgryn

opaque cypress

opaque cypress

oh come on

its 1 bullet per thing that's not armored

latent parcel
#

i meant havoc gunker

opaque cypress

i just learnt recently that marksman focus isnt bad

im just bad.

if i hit my headshots, its really fun

wha

you should give it a try

and dont go recon lasgun, try the autogun

wanton dawn

well i enjoy landing a bullet at max stacks between a gunners eyes at super long range

Maff how many hours u got in DT?

wanton dawn

opaque cypress

opaque cypress
latent parcel
#

and i got way more hours

wanton dawn
#

Well, idk. I just like playing vet

latent parcel
#

Nah i mean i quit before aurics came out

#

i have like

#

60-70 aurics done total

wanton dawn
#

I got like 5 hours with infiltrate though KEKW_ogryn

latent parcel
#

i didnt know they must give alot of xp for true level

wanton dawn
#

I mean, does it matter ?

latent parcel
#

nah

opaque cypress
#

that skill felt so fun when going through the penance

latent parcel
#

i just thought u had way more hours then i did at ur true level

wanton dawn
#

Idk. I just play, get lvl

#

And i guess i zoom more with good success rate ?

#

Over that much hour it compound

latent parcel
#

Ya possibly

wanton dawn
#

Like path.exe do like, half his time is the training psy

latent parcel
#

ive only seen like 1 other person with as many hours as me

#

which makes me sad

#

i need a new game

wanton dawn
#

Well, i do think that from time to time

#

But whatever. Ill stop when i get bored

latent parcel
#

Ya im close to a break

#

Making an ogryn for havoc kept me around alot longer then i thought it would

wanton dawn
#

Technically i did stop. I rarely play outside of group

#

Then havoc dropped and i started playing more again

night timber
#

Need some sessy hot lasgun build for my veteran. Any recommendations should be great

latent parcel
#

Havoc only reason i came back to play

#

Only reason im still playing lol

I think the lasgun fans are sleeping rn

On that good discussion,i need to get up and prepare working Sitgryn

I think so everyone talking about it

wanton dawn
#

Need to prepare a ppt presentation and i HATE that

sounds terrid

#

i need to sleep

night timber
#

Is it count

opaque cypress
#

plus a long range murderer if you can hit your shots

wanton dawn
#

Aight, peace

night timber
#

Uhm that interesting

opaque cypress
#

look, you CAN run a helbore lasgun

#

but it really kills your crowd clearing potential

#

i have yet to try MM focus on recon lasgun

#

im still like really new to the game lol, i just recently picked up marksman focus and how to play around it + executioners

night timber
#

Auric damnation is kinda headache for me lately. So I'm trying for some build that has the most impact dps

opaque cypress
#

do you care about ammo conservation or nope

night timber
opaque cypress
#

but running crits so far in damnation/heresy with most skills on the left, has been fun :)!

#

and viable enough if the scoreboard mod isnt lying to me, real high offense scores

opaque cypress
#

seeing the funny purple number stack up from nothing makes me happy

#

still debating whether camouflage or 15 stacks is better

#

i mean obv if i get a 100% headshot ratio, 15 stacks > camo

#

but i also run infantry autogun

#

....hmmm now thats an idea

#

how well do shotguns work with MM focus

hi , which mark and which stats/blessings should i use for this ?

iron atlas
#

charge rate go brrrrr

#

and maybe armour dmg bonus

pseudo fiber
iron atlas
#

does crit is rng or when u hit weak spot (head) it proc?

silver trellis
#

Whats better for Bosses / Carapace / Bigger enemies. Spearhead Boltgun or Plasma?

#

Compatible for Havoc preferably

winter sluice
#

I think bolt gun. Just because of the auto fire. Running cavalcade and the other mag dump one

#

But that shits through ammo on havok and plasma is more efficient

#

I could never just not use my gun barely at all during havok so I run weapon specialist melee focus revolver so I don't have to worry about ammo ever

silver trellis
#

Do you have a build for Plasma btw? Wanna try something new

wanton dawn
#

Boltgun is better at shooting but boltgun requires a lot of dedicated talent to support it. Build variety is worse and your melee perf suffers

dry cloak
#

Boltgun is good for exestance builds. At least in my experience

wanton dawn
#

Boltgun loves ES but it works on voc build

dry cloak
#

I did a stupid thing once

#

Played plasma with weapon spec

wanton dawn
#

It is not stupid

dry cloak
#

It worked suprisingly well

#

Possibly gonna farm low havocs today

wanton dawn
#

Ws plasma is basically a melee build except you got a gun that is good at picking target at any range

#

And you end up with hybrid dmg profile

#

With arguably 0 investment on the ranged side

#

I think the closest thing you can compare to would be dbs. Except dbs is worse at range

dry cloak
#

Laspistol is nice with ws

wanton dawn
#

Laspistol arguably benefit more from ws ranged. Plasma is better easier at activating melee though

#

Plasma is also great to abuse agile engagement

#

But again, the main advantage is the 0 investment part

dry cloak
wanton dawn
#

Am trying dbs and ps6

dry cloak
#

Also good combo

fervent hemlock
#

Ranged crit damage or ranged weak spot damage?

pseudo fiber
#

Neither

the worst possible damnation maelstrom equal to what havoc? ?

i've only done h20, way easier then damnation maelstrom

tropic halo
#

I dont think it is even that close

tame lodge
#

A couple more bosses on Havoc

#

So 3veg but not weakened

#

Ranged enemies are shooting more

#

Nurgle blessing adjacent

#

So 3 veg

#

More specialist spawns on havoc

#

3veg has special waves

crisp oak
tame lodge
#

Havoc stagger threshold is also high

crisp oak
#

Malleus monstrum

tame lodge
#

And 3veg Nurgle blessing makes enemies hard to stagger

crisp oak
#

And like vent purge

#

And nurgle blessed

dapper plank
#

is there a diff between high intensity shock troop damnation, and the same thing in the auric area?

#

or a big diff?

vernal trench
#

Its nowhere near 30

crisp oak
#

Could see nurgle blessed with extra monsters being that

#

(30)

vernal trench
#

Thats nowhere close to 30

#

They die almost instantly anyway in maelstroms even blessed

#

No ammo pick up is closer a bit to 30 but still not close

crisp oak
#

Oh yeah forgot about ammo

vernal trench
#

No ammo has pretty much the amount of armored elites u see in armored spawns in a 40

#

So its not even anything special plus they get less health

crisp oak
#

My last no ammo was almost exclusively reapers and snipers

#

With a side of bulwarks

#

chadgryn thanks fatshark

tame lodge
#

Maybe less ammo or health thingies as well

vernal trench
#

Idk it feels like the same amount of specialists

Shock maul is mid

tame lodge

It's a decent low investment weapon with boss problems

10/10 would play it

light ridge
#

Like shock maul but it lacks punch against Ogryns and Bosses

thorn lark
#

If you use a a bolter why not

One of them has heavy attack overhead only, it was one of my to go in "mostly Scab melee" Maelstrom modifier. It bonks the ogryn very well.

and do ranged units move into the smoke, or just stand where they are, and increase in numbers?

terse idol

Ranged units will try to move past the smoke or sometimes they just kinda stand there not shooting the smoke

#

If they're already shooting iirc they'll shoot at your last known location

#

It blocks snipers too

Who lose tracking

Imagine if smokes were more of a big colateral effect area, or does it work like that already?

You're right. He waited for the 15 stacks of IJ too. So duellist, surgical, hand cannon and IJ. You would probably have to take anoint on a BP build tho.

But then again it’s a chainsword so I don’t have too many good things to say about it

light ridge
#

Need to check again then, there was a reason I liked the 70% mobility

eager osprey
#

is this also fine?

#

as long as the worst stat is mobility?

#

I mix dodge and block so I don't really rely 100% on dodges

tame lodge
#

Chain Axe worst stat is defences

eager osprey
#

Ok, so general rule of thumb is melee weapon = 80 all stats except mobility?

tame lodge
#

Unless the melee weapon has defences, then defences should be 60%

narrow frost
#

some weapons are different

#

but they are few

#

PSword dumping cleave targets

tall torrent
thorn lark
#

Considering how horrendous the mobility on the chaxe is yeah... Don't dump it

hearty panther
#

i recommend even splitting mobility and defences, or if you normally dump mobility anyway, then dump it

#

on the chaxe12 specifically anyway

#

if you arent taking advantage of that push attack then dont bother with the entire mark tbh

thorn lark
tame lodge
#

Times change

light ridge
narrow frost
#

Stagger

#

best for mixed horde

#

but horde clear is faster with lights

#

If you want to use a combo

#

Heavy light

#

is the best horde clear

light ridge
#

Thanks
What about heavies on mk3, I never seem to use them, only folded heavy

narrow frost
#

I only use mk1

dapper plank
tame lodge
wanton dawn
#

The shovel ?

#

I tried it a bit this week-end

#

I just spam m1 cuz cleave is stoopid and decimator stack fast. Heavy with folded i guess.

tame lodge
#

Mk3 is like anti armor specialist or something

wanton dawn
#

Am not a good shovel player

light ridge
#

I prefer Mk3 over Mk7, light works well for killing chaf
Heavy special is accurate

terse idol
#

Mk1 shovel is just

#

Heavy spam on hordes

#

Uncanny, skull smasher

wanton dawn
#

Then i went back to ps6 cuz i like having dmg on boss

terse idol
#

(Hotshot on hebore)

light ridge
terse idol
#

My learning

#

I thought the best combo vs hordes was heavy spammin

tall torrent
terse idol
#

Oh so for mixed hordes its mixed heavies and lights?

light ridge
#

Mk1 Decimator or Skullcrusher to go with Uncanny?

hollow ibex
#

Skullcrusher imo

#

deci is a fucking pain

hearty panther
#

deci skullcrusher is maximum funnies

hearty panther
#

uncanny i only take if i have shredder grenades

light ridge
#

I always have shredders...

supple laurel
#

i take shredders or kraks depending on the build

crisp oak
#

I miss when krak spam could onetap a captain

dapper plank
hearty panther
#

on standard shovel it's not that much of a benefit

#

already had good damage against everything that isnt carapace, and you have much better options to counter carapace than an uncanny shovel

#

the pokey shovels are different of course

inner temple
#

Shredder on stealth is fun

wanton dawn
#

DBS is h40 viable, noice

#

I am not viable with it though KEKW_ogryn

#

yet

sharp epoch
#

double barrel shtogun??

wanton dawn
#

ye

sharp epoch
#

i dont think its viable unless u got some other person on the team good at killing specialist long range

hollow ibex
wanton dawn
#

Well, I don't say it is viable unless I have actually won a game with it

sharp epoch
#

you can take anything if your teammates can carry u mostly

wanton dawn
#

True, I love getting carried

sharp epoch
#

like I had a vet with bolt pistol and knife on a havoc 40

#

😬

wanton dawn
#

Boltpistol is viable in h40 too though

sharp epoch
#

and laspistol catachan was another

wanton dawn
#

knife as well, though ds4 is usually the preferred option for this kind of gameplay

#

laspistol catachan is less common

sharp epoch
#

it just gets gapped by other weapons/builds though

#

and doesn't really add much to the team

#

chorus zealot has less damage but its actually useful to keep enemies stunlocked and have corruption regen

wanton dawn
#

I play tag plasma, tag bolter, ws plasma and now ws dbs

latent parcel
#

Nah just tag plasma. Don't lie! whatthefuck_heresy

faint beacon
#

Tag in general is good for your team even if you’re not focusing damage

wanton dawn
#

I prefer bolter tag

#

DBS is a nice change of pace though'

hollow ibex
#

ES DBS would be quite funny

wanton dawn
#

mmmhhh

#

Lemme check

meager quarry
#

returning to say that I've used this build and it's awesome, helped me a lot

#

thank you!

#

now I'll aim for that juicy 500 bolter and 500 chainsword

wanton dawn
#

Can go any of the 3 anyway

#

Shredder probably not good cuz you grabbing the 60s regen is costly

hollow ibex
#

Oof 3 points for AE

#

But AE is very good...

gentle yoke
#

Finally maxed out all my penances. Trying to get good at damnation aurics rn. Helbore is hard to master

wanton dawn
hollow ibex
#

Yeah I might try a DB ES build for shits and gigglez

wanton dawn
#

Probably use kraks over frags

hollow ibex
hollow ibex
gentle yoke
#

I love the thing but with all my points into damaging stuff I feel slow a lot of the time

wanton dawn
#

Otherwise I dunno if you can actually kill

hollow ibex
#

Yeah idk havoc breakpoints at all lol

summer lance
#

@stable talon sorry, didn't know what else to tell you about leveling, its really just a slough through quickplay man :(

fiery raft
#

what would a bolt pistol build look like?

#

and a revolver one

#

and how would they compare?

#

im choosing between

formal ice
#

Revolver crit

#

Bolt uhhhhh bleed?

fiery raft
#

how do they build?

formal ice
#

Well uhhh...

fiery raft
tame lodge
#

It's just that good

#

However

#

Bolt pistol is more akin to a side grade

inner temple
#

Simple trust. 4 rounds and they slide right in the cylinder. Ez

fiery raft
#

why's that?

inner temple
#

Because its bolter rounds what you expect a 8 round cylinder?

fiery raft
#

no i mean why is boltie a sidegrade

inner temple
#

Gonna have a cylinder extender hah. O because it a side piece

#

I jest too much

terse idol
#

And puncture

#

For a grenadier build

#

Since lethal proximity increases the radius of shredder grenades

#

Puncture itself is to help for break points

#

Puncture or run and gun

#

Take shredder grenades, tinkerer, the 60s free grenade

#

Twinned blast for memes

#

And demolition team for a chance to make more grenades

pallid jetty
#

just checked the stagger on tac axe special

#

stunlocks all ragers and bulwarks

#

no stunlock but possibility of stagger on maulers and crushers

#

the most useless against reapers

tall torrent
fiery raft
#

i see

#

what abt revolver?

#

how would one build that if bolt pistol is just bomba pistol?

tall torrent
#

Unarmored/elite
maniac
point blank
Run&gun

fiery raft
#

what would using it be like?

#

i assume its not a hordeclear wep

terse idol
#

Gotta run it with like always prepared in a weapons specialist build

#

Shoot all high prior enemiess

#

Constantly gain bullets back in your revolverr

#

By melee

hollow ibex
fiery raft
#

oh that seems pretty fun

#

what's the talent tree look like?

#

i'd like to try it

fiery raft
#

alright, thanks

#

i appreciate

#

u

burnt vortex
#

There any weapons that go from mid to amazing with weapon specialist?

pallid jetty
#

imagine having increased melee speed with melee weapon

pallid jetty
#

oh if ranged then yeah, double barrel is the only one i guess

hollow ibex
burnt vortex
#

Does the db actually hit break points with ws? Seems to be the massive problem with it as well as the effective distance

hollow ibex
#

Guaranteed crit is good for dealing with distant specialists

#

And also shredding hordes

#

Breakpoints aren't a huge concern on DB imo

burnt vortex
#

Double barrel it is

fiery raft
#

how fun is db in this revolver build im doing?

#

if i replaced revolver with db

hollow ibex
#

Just remember you'll still need to be shooting at stuff from point blank besides squishy specialists

hollow ibex
pallid jetty
#

0 ammo in shotgun - kill 1 fentanyl hobo with your melee - draw shotgun - 1 shell appears

hollow ibex
#

Psykers aren't the only ones with warp powers

pallid jetty
#

actual fucking magick

#

but its one of the most sick combos in the game

fiery raft
#

what would be a good melee to use?

#

im assuming most

#

but what do you guys recommend

pallid jetty
#

Veteran: kills 1 fentanyl hobo in melee while having no ammo in the gun
Little ratlings in his pocket: **YEP, HE GOT THE KILL BOOOYS!!! **put 1 singular shell in his gun

hollow ibex
pallid jetty
#

combat axe i guess

#

chain sword i think

#

anything some-what fast

burnt vortex
#

I'm gonna try knoife. Go full cod gremlin

fiery raft
#

i was thinking nife

#

mainly because im trying to get used to using it

#

along with mastery

pallid jetty
#

cool thing to master - make use of fist-light 1 spam on the pointy knife

#

cant really spam this on green knife but its still useful

#

with the colorless you can go full Michael Myers mode

calm shard
#

tac axe isn't really that great on veteran I thought

faint beacon
#

its useable and can be fun

#

you just lack carapace options

pallid jetty
#

you just need to spam attacks

#

it doesnt have any big hits

#

then its good

#

works good with brittleness on crit weakspot hits perk also

faint beacon
#

Pretty much

#

if you can combo your hits extremely well its great, also Exploit Weakness is not worth it on Taxe tragically

#

ask Ainz

#

he loves using Taxe on Vet and I even asked to confirm if it was even worth it

hollow ibex
#

You can still get around 1k dps against crusher

faint beacon
#

20% is just not enough

hollow ibex
#

It's not tragic

pallid jetty
#

overall dps of your team is gonna increase

hollow ibex
#

Nah fuck the team

faint beacon
#

Exactly

#

LMAO

#

Honestly I'd rather go down the Rending Strikes path mainly cause of FT and obviously everything else there is just generally a more solid pick instead of Exploit

#

but obviously TFD is pretty tasty on Taxe

pallid jetty
#

FT

#

TFD

#

SKIBIDI

#

#

the hell is ft and tfd

Oh yeah WS is pretty nice on Taxe also

#

frank basin
#

Hmmmm

hollow ibex
#

I don't think OP understands the meme template

#

Well better than some memes I've seen with that template at least KEKW_ogryn

pallid jetty
#

no, he doesnt understand how weapons are banalced in the game

frank basin
#

Should it switch “nooo boltgun bad” to low iq-jak, “Boltgun best” to average iq-jak?

#

Or swap to the high iq-jak????

hollow ibex
#

Average IQ should prob be saying something like: noooo there is no best weapon in the game

midnight totem
#

you know whats the toughest challenge in the game?

#

weekly six runs with nobody on the team dying

#

(with pubs)

shadow dagger
#

the toughest challenge is easily doing the 16 book challenge without thinking about rerolling it at all

#

this feels about right outside of missing one motion + tac reload but iunno what to drop to squeeze out the points i need

#

i can probably drop desperado but what else

#

am i missing a breakpoint actually

#

i cant tell

terse idol
pallid jetty
terse idol
#

no yeah, I just thought it was pretty bad

Considering the rashad exists

pallid jetty
#

skill issue

terse idol
#

what skill

#

It's just bad kek

faint beacon
#

You're basically comparing a Nuke to a Bunker Buster

#

Taxe is pretty good over all just lacks carapace obviouly

#

and then there's rashad

#

it just kills everything

hollow ibex
#

Yeah taxe is just fun

doing some of these penances is trash

my ocd+autism demands i have 60/60 veteran

pallid jetty
#

just 60/60 veteran...

#

from hard ones that are left for me - twins kill with no grenades bombing and in 5 seconds simultanius kill

#

true survivor also

#

and others are just grind - auric 250 missions, 50 operations, missions in the void

and that will be it

i dont remember needing to use bring it down to two tap crushers with psword

#

did something change or am i misremembering

vernal trench
#

U dont

dapper plank
calm shard
#

69 thermal resistance gives you the max amount of shots, and charge rate is your fire rate

shadow dagger

i... yeah that was the assumption

shadow dagger
vernal trench
#

Ur prolly not aiming at the right spot

calm shard
vernal trench
#

Its top left of his head

calm shard
#

you're not gonna dump ammo because it's your ammo

#

or damage because you need that damage to hit breakpoints

shadow dagger
#

wgat

calm shard

and stopping power is armor pen which is also needed

Is there no mobility stat on plasma gun?

Consistently if i have to

I use it with exec stance and mf

Ur survivability is shit but its probably the highest damage build out of anything

I dont use it much or at all cuz i dont trust my team enough in random games

waaaaait, plasma gun just vents when you shoot normally at 90+%.... wtf is the point of 80 thermal resist then

tldr psword not 2tapping with elite and no bring it down

the Mk VI

Exec stance hellbore has potential to hit 1.6 or 1.8 mil

#

On a perfect game

tall torrent
#

if u don't then u messed up somewhere

vernal trench
#

Yea normally

#

My build doesnt have points for it so i bring carapace and elite damage for my ps

#

That guy had superiority tho and hes barely missing damage to 2 shot a crusher

tall torrent
vernal trench
#

Idk if he has that

#

He sent his lower half of the build tho

#

Na he has desperado too

#

If he replaves elite damage with carapace he can 2 shot crushers

shadow dagger
#

top half if necessary

vernal trench
#

It wont affect damage from top half

#

Switch out 10% elite damage for 25% carapace and ull be able to 2 shot a crusher

shadow dagger
#

yeah i heard that

#

unfortunately carapace only works on like what

#

2 enemy types across the board?

frank basin
#

Scab rager

#

The torso only

vernal trench
#

Depends on what mode u play ig

#

The higher difficulties are gonna be filled with carapace so its a good choice bringing it

u can pretty safely drop maniac
