im not puny im just small boned
you need more brown milk lil one
I think
infinite ammo
is highly overrated
If you use your brain as well as your ammo, you probably won't run out for atleast 90% of the run
veteran default skillset and weaponry doesnt lack much on ranged damage, its melee capacity is kinda low but its CC capacity is DESPERATLY in need of frags cc and shout to be in a horde shooter
Unless Havoc. You might not run out, but everyone but the psyker will if you selfishly refuse to bring survivalist.
smell my finger
the finger that was used to send the Pogryn to the void
I gotta say, the Marksman keystone feels pretty good to me.
Your feelings for it
Are not real
I see we have some fellow psykers letting their dreams show what they want than what it is
Shooting heads feels good
I'll get back to you in about three weeks when I get around yo trying out a second keystone.
is that what just happened?
this guy gets it
new havoc meta š„
psykers peril edge, vets stamina edge
(because vets never have any stamina anyway)
Why is shovel, and that particular mk, meta?
Guy was criticizing this build for the recon lasgun told me to go down and take weapon specialist with the 20% toughness on swap instead? is that real?
recon lasgun havoc build
it's a meme build, synergizing vet's dogshit stamina economy + deadshot + All or Nothing (bonus str on low stam) on mk1 shovel (relies on push attack for single target)
there's actually some pretty insane synergy here
but the damage potential still isn't great ofc lol
keystoneless recon is perfectly valid
though normally for keystoneless recon, you take desperado > 25 toughness > trench fighter
i am also a huge onslaught hater personally
I've never taken this before in any build is it actually good
Recon with onslaught is decent with infernus, but not necessarily the best alternative
it's... ok
most builds rarely have the points for it tho
what do you replace onslaught with?
cuz vet's taxed like a billionaire in the EU
desperado > 25 toughness > trench fighter
Taking focus fire is a good option, that keystone is damage for all your team
and a rashad or PS so you can still fight carapace
He is not a hater, but a misinformation reject
tbf
shock trooper is kinda overkill if you have survivalist too
you could take both surv and shock trooper, but you're better served by using melee more
Yeah but it keeps you from needing almost any ammo, ergo you can support another gunner class, even a rumbler lugger, while you handle smaller enemies and specialists so he can save ammo for crowded concentrations of enemies
it's not a bad take
i wouldn't ding anyone for wanting to take shock trooper
... unless they're not running a las weapon
It's a tested take, genuinely a good support class the veteran is
The point in this is that the guy is running a recon, but I don't get why the other makes a fuzz about it anyway
Said my build was bad but told me to take weapon specialist and also had me not taking survivalist while also not taking shock trooper
I humored him and did his build on a talent calc
oh ok that's just all bad advice then
i mean you could skip both surv and shock trooper, not the end of the world
"not taking survivalist" Ok that's all the evidence needed, that's a full troll
but usually not a great idea since you should be pathing for frags anyway
Was this a case where there was another veteran with survivalist?
I just recently came back to playing in the last 2 weeks so I'm catching up on some tweaks etc to vet tree like catch your breath now being deactivated only when being hit instead of it being proximity like it used to
So I thought he understood some tech I didn't
Nah it was a guy not playing veteran
He doesn't know what he is doing then, worth ignoring his "advice" if you ask me
I figured it was bad but I've been wrong enough to double check so I asked
thanks for confirmation
Wise of you to check to learn mate, good luck out there 
Not sure what I'm doing when it comes to the upgrade system in this game. Does this look right or wrong?
so basically most weapons you want the mobility to be 60 while all the other stats are 80
also for perks you should take the damage types, flak 25% and maniac 25% are the most common perks and safest picks
deadly accurate is good, but needs to be ran with headhunter blessing because the damage only applies to criticals + weakspots
otherwise you could go like ghost + no respite/opening salvo
Good to know
Didn't realize this
Thank you. The machine spirits in my lasgun will benefit from you
Get infernus
Clense the heretics with holy fire
Which shovel blessings should i use?
Uncany + ??
Decimator+Skullcrusher.
Is for mk3 specifically. 2 folding heavy to kill crushers.
You can choose to go Uncanny with one of those if preferred though.
Is longshot used with double barrel?
or am I better of picking 25% ammo, if the choice was between the two?
I'm actually serious. You can try it out yourself. Decimator does require that you not miss a hit though. Skullcrusher works on vet folding shovels especially well if you can hit crusher heads with it.
?
I was thinkin which to choose š
Please tell me you're not actually thinking of putting longshit on a db shotgun of all things
what is you guys recommend for weapon specialist pairs
reolver, bistol, double barrel.
Plasma, bolt pistol, DB shotgun, shotguns, laspitol, braced/infantry AUG.
Boltgun is slow for weapon specialist
My error. Edited
You can use Plasma with weapon specialist really well too iirc
They do
i pinged a group of maulers with a full ogryn team and i felt like the dude in the car
commissar with his ogryn squad
quick question, on Shock Maul "Falter" blessing gives "Increased stagger on enemies by +60%, on Weakspot hit. Additionally, increases ranged stagger strength by +30%."
Does this mean that it buffs my gun?
TY 
Doesnāt apply, only the version of the blessing on a ranged weapon that applies to ranged attacks
Falter on the shock maul only effects your melee weapon
What increased stagger by 60-90% translates into in-game code is reducing enemy stagger thresholds by 60-90%
On headshot
Dreg ragers whilst attacking have 50 stagger resist, on headshot itās 25, and with the 4th tier falter blessing it becomes 2.5
Heavy 1 on the shock maul 8.73 stagger so itāll knock ragers out of their combo
Read that off of kulis steam guide
Good resource for quick reference
falter on shockamul saves lives
its not really
what is ranged stagger strength on a melee weapon?
where does it say RANGED in the description
before stagger
Hi guys, quick question
Yeah exactly what happened lol
Question: if you ever get in a situation with a bunch of ragers and no team or ammo, do you just die? With most weapons it feels that you don't survive at all vs ragers
Melee vet so far doesn't feel that safe
yes unless devilclaw
yep?
i tried a shovel with impact blessings in psychanium it looks like it could send em flying but i havent tested it properly
I mean, it's fair trade to be absolutely incapable to do much of anything else, man the veteran doesn't feel that likes melee weapons
Just dodge (there's really nothing you can do in that situation)
Tried shovel a few times and it usually doesn't stagger them that effectively
At least in H40
No, so maybe there is a chance for that, but it would make it's clear abysmal
i could knock over a mauler with it
a pack of ragers catching you with your pants down is bad for sure. dodging and trying to use the terrain to seperate them or slow some down at least is what i'd do
i could handle 3 or 4 ragers at a time with the old bayonet. you could stun lock em and keep distance
but with tac axe, you can stagger them well soooo...
Need to stop my orgyn and FGS Psyker brain from trying to kill them on melee, it really doesn't work huh?
Oops! No stamina, you ded
impossibru i always eat my veggies
Don't you know being a veteran means you have asthma?
i feel lost without my bayonet š i miss it so much
It is there, it's just garbo
What's the ObeseFish vision for putting a beefy 10% melee damage hidden under the smoke nades? Why is it better than the one far more into the tree?
Heh seems like most melee weapons are able to stagger ragers
I should definitely take a better look at the guide later
The thing is staggering them while they are swinging, they have far more stagger resistance when actually fighting
Yeah the guide got the combo part covered
Why's the stagger breakpoints at the very bottom though
š
I like how the Dueling Sword section is just
Special
The dueling sword privilege
People are gonna lose their shit if it gets nerfed in that alleged upcoming massive weapon balance change
and I'm gonna lose my shit if they don't change the draw time on helbore
You can probably eat them alive with a chain axe or tac axe
The only thing I want to see nerfed on the DS is the cleave on lights
It would kill Rampage on DS4
But that's ok
Can I have that monkey paw to ask for Exe stance to replace MMf and we can get a new skill to pull a light machinegun Rambo style like in the art?
that's already in the game just play ogryn
download a mod that makes you look like a vet there u go problem solved
Every other class should strive to be orgyn
that would require playtesters that care about any other class
wish granted but you only get a single belt of ammo like rambo and are also less accurate than gunlugger ogryn
also exec replaced MMF but you now need to stand still or exec is cancelled
How does the Ranged Crit part of Weapon Specialist actually work?
Single shot, from what I can see, but is it additional crit? A multiplier on your base? The wording is terrible. š¦
The first part seels ok since it's supposed to be a skill with a CD, but it performing worse than the krourk twins stubber?! That's really evil
single crit
How does the crit % work? is it just straight up added so 3 stacks = 100% crit?
after 3 stacks guaranteed crit
Okay, so either Plasma Gun doesn't get 100% crit from that, or Adept Assassin is just bugged with it, idk
Its weird, stack three times, get the headshot kill marker, no progress.
Did you hit the right enemy?
There is a requirement, I can't remember which. Elite maybe?
Hmm.
It works sometimes, I'm just gonna stop going for pen kills as those seem to just not be reliable. Slow and steady and all that.
Close, kill, and do it again, etc.
like how much are we talking like
a little cleave or like
no cleave
at all
I'm thinking no cleave maybe
The dueling sword is supposed to be a single target weapon, make it so it's only capable of hurting one enemy no matter the cleave you have except with specific moves that are made for that
im thinking like maybe 1.2 enemies per light if we want to be generous
What's the current value?
Other weapons need a similar level of mobility, or it needs tuning down. Mobility is an insane defensive tool as well.
Is ObeseFish for real?!
Speaking of: Shredded Apistol should have better mobility imo
Currently feels like the infantry Agun
The cleave got buffed a long time ago when it was a psyker exclusive iirc
Weird considering that Psyker can give it more cleave with stuff like warp splitting nowadays
you can run and fire it now baseline which i think makes it way more mobile
Any links to this info or is it implied?
They joked about it, but if the game ends with a mostly negative reviews, we know why.
All they can really do is just buff everything up to like the current A tier weapons.
I just want the older weapons brought up from low tier to above average tier
Devils claw, chain weapons, and folding shovels
Sapper shovel would be nutty up there too with a little number tweaks
Don't think that is better than the capacity to have a mobility profile like revolver or las pistols
Yeah⦠too great. They should allow all weapons to insta-kill anything, and since we need difficulty, they need to multiply the number of enemies by 100⦠Letās increase everything until our GPU burns! Fatshark, can you add a Dexta difficulty for him, and give us a proper difficulty? I donāt care if itās a new difficulty or a new mod...
Thanks brotha
Foldings have a funni niche though. 1 shotting crushers on funni build or 2 shotting with anything including no talents skilled.
Take Skullcrusher and Decimator, use folded heavy x2.
Yeah, I donāt like nerfs on uber tier weapons just to bring it down to the mid weapons
Hold on
I think thrust skullcrusher for the 1 shot.
I like mid weapons to be brought up to A tier with duelling going down from S+ to S or even A
I pray to god blessings are apart of that balance patch
And maybe perk adjustments
If they don't remove the chain axe and Evis hit cap... this kitteh will reeeeeeeeeeee
Should be worth something
We are being gaslighted into hoping that next patch will be weapon balance? Or we have direct confirmation that's the theme of next patch?
Amen
I wish weakspot and critical damage perks were calculated differently than how it is currently
Iād like it to be combined into 10% finesse damage or even strength
Ah.
What ya testing?
Went to check the outdated Calculator
Munitorum Shock Maul H2 and H3 had like 0 damage on the fourth target but had damage on the 5th
So it's confusing
Which is just weird ngl
That's some weird ObeseFish sorcery
A classic.
Guys I said āAllegedā for the record
allegedly
They should take the cap off the evi and put it into the inferno staff
Tried a knife/shrauto WS Infil build last night
Not super competitive but good fun
Eh. No caps for all.
Could do burn falloff depending on how far the enemy is from the staff/flamer
Gets to keep the silly brain-off cleave but gotta use it better
Pretty sure it has damage fall off already for the direct damage.
Tbf damage is a dumpstat on the flamer so I don't think that's very impactful
Then again flamer isn't a huge problem so it doesn't reaaaally matter
I dumped mobility because.
Well, it has ammo. That already caps it.
hey I saw path said weapon balance for next big patch
anybody want to take bets that the dclaw gets nothing again
no money because I have none but like...moral value bets
I pray to the gods thereās a perfect parry mechanic blessing
Like perfect parries cost exactly 0 stamina
I would recommend more realistic prayers
Like the dclaw getting perfect block blessings but fatshark forgetting that the parry is coded poorly and isn't technically a block
sure, infinite cleave deleter
why are 80% of current havocs fucking green slime bullshit modifier
whyd they bring that shit back
B/c its peak
peak boring
I hope they introduce even more kinds of slime
It is a block
You just found out. All H40s seem to have it.
I think fundamentally the weapon will always be bad since it's bad with armor
Wouldn't hold my breath waiting for dclaw changes
As someone who mains Ogryn but plays every class somewhat equally, I have a question regarding roles:
- What is the main role of a Veteran?
- What is the sign of a good and/or bad Veteran?
- What to do if Ogryn is forced to kill specials that Veteran either leaves unkilled (knocked down but getting up) or ignores them entirely (e.g., Snipers, (Tox) Flamers)?
that final question is the primary sign of a bad veteran
veteran is a hybrid melee/ranged class with a broad focus on having high ranged damage to pick off specials
Searching: How To Smack Templar Who Keeps Rutting Shooting Me Back
2 new blessing, 100% rending on special and infinite cleave on special

I'm setting up my bingo card
very good
Main role: give ammo to the rumblergryn
I'm trying Shieldgryn (?) and peeling heavies from the rest of the team, otherwise I go Knifegryn (???) and cleave through everything
Ogryn does nearly everything a vet can do, but better
And yet they'll run around shooting things in melee like it's CoD or something at level 120
Can I see what you have? I'm taking hopium for chain weapons to be cool again
Oh the card is not ready yet
But I got
Changes to DS
Buffs to Shock Maul
Buff to braced autos
Tactical Axe buff
Hit caps removed from all weapons?
Paul buffs
Iām gonna make a personal āNext updateā bingo sheet and put the most dumb but things that FS would do, related wins on there
Buffs to DS? š„ŗ
PSword gets the relic blade treatment
What could go wrong 
Foldable shovel buff?
Ogryn is untouched is going to be on there LMAO
Surprise vet new weapon leaks?
"changes" is a broad term for either buff or nerfs
They'll definitely touch DS

Itās confirmed itās getting nuked
How itās lasted this long
Idk
Ooh Combat shotgun buff
But itās getting nuked
Nah, is already know that orgyn will be nerfed, is part of the prophesy
Double barrel buff plZ
Cos oggy is just too overtuned compared.
We to strong, ermo: we take nerf
If it is like the standard, vet REALLY need buffs.
Vet needs actual mechanics that make it feel like the marksman class, because nowadays he doesn't feel like that
It feels like ammo dispenser that can shoot.
Darktide is becoming TF3, with Orgyn Heavy and dispenser Veteran
Is it too far fetched to put iLas changes on the bingo or
Can I see the notes?
No 

Again just reward veteran for consistently hitting Weakspots
Itās that fucking easy
Even though I know itās been confirmed for upcoming if not next upcoming
Iām still putting it in the sheet
DS untouched for another update
Instructions unclear, make it so weapons do crap damage with other than weak spot hits and actually clicking heads feels barely ok
Sincerely: ObeseFish
Thank you shartshark
MorbidlyobeseShrimp strikes again
Still compiling
I feel like I can throw whatever weapon in there
Ooh maybe Dclaw 1 changes
Dclaw still do bad Vs caparace but can actually horde clear would be nice
Hsword overhead doing respectable damage va caparace would be GREAT
Dclaw 1 just needs a reliable Strikedown, maybe after a push like Cleaver 6
Then all Dclaws need better flak
Minimal Vigil changes
Weak weapon somehow gets nerfed instead of buffed
Make Braced Aguns feel like it can pull a Rambo, currently the feel so bad
Thatās going on the list
9 canāt be saved. Remove it from the game.
I like current brautos
Killing you all
I won't say no to more power!
2 dodges. Cuz reasons. 
Jade give two rides!
New weapon (if dropped) completely out classes all other veteran melees
Reduce the burst delay so you can go full auto when spamming m1
For that mobility profile I expect it to make cheddar out of heretics but NOOOOOOO
Shield mk
Tbf I think graia is decent but it needs ES
Low balling, plasma changes
Now you explode even with left click spam
Shredder Auto gets nerfed for no fucking reason
Or make it more blanket spot and just
id prefer they nerf less and buff more
except for maybe the dueling sword which needs nerfs for obvious reasons
Why the fuck are they nerfing SAP
āWeapon thatās fine gets nerfed for 0 reasonā
When itās finally usable
Tidal wave of more psyker buffs
Let me guess, are they buffing gunker too?
Youāre memeing
its real
This canāt be real lol
Cool
Might be high time to just uninstall this game
I'm trolling
And quit permanently
so dont mind me
Ainz
Surely they are buffing the dogshit tactical axes next patch
Iām listing my bingo sheet for next update
Oh ok
š
Buff the Braced buns, the Shredder pistol and the chain axes, that's my hopium for this
man, i hope uncanny gets nerfed in the next patch
Fingers off the uninstall button for now
Making it even more Doo doo
dueling sword and uncanny are the two things i want truly nerfed tbh
from what I actually know, some of the talked about nerfs will be interesting
That's a story for another day
But close enough if shit hits the reactors
who said that
I think people said ObeseFish said that it was an outliner, but don't recall they saying that it will be nerfed or anything
Knife 3 needs a niche to differentiate from the other, but what niche idk
Better lights
Make it so it has superb cleave?
make knife 3 a power knife UwU
Give veteran a spear with an explosive tip
Even better single target
Any idea on when this balance patch is supposed to come
Hopefully by Skulls
Sometimes it's more fun to have an unbalanced weapon
Or at least announced at Skulls
Not OP, just one that is great in some areas and barely scrapes by in others
Skulls is usually later this month or earlier next month
Lance/Spear admittedly makes sense with Veteran for the regiments that use Cavalry
Steel Legion, DKOK, Etc
But I see the chance of a Heavy Axe happening more than that
Oh yeah there was a little oopsies earlier this year about the axes and hammer models
They'll probably be stuffed into the code and be used 2 years later
Psyker exclusive actually
Psyker can barely run with the FGS and you want to give him an even heavier weapon? I approve
Force them to take warp speed 
Ew
I already have low regards to Warp Speed
Why's the biomancy skill attached to Divination
Warp speed + mettle + disrupt making you literally the fastest class in the game
Iām sorry that you hate fun
My fun is on having Extra talent points for something important

Like Unlucky for some

Ok but why biomancy is tied to divination
Or are you going to tell me that the divinator looks into the future and see the best movements and just perform them without fear
Warp speed
Brain Burst
Bio lightning
Smite
Enfeeble
Are our psykers just Biomancers
imagine being a zealot or ogryn and needing a cooldown ability to be fast
couldn't be psyker
just crit a couple dudes and zoom
Multiclass perhaps? And vet gets a gun
power axe to ogryn 
as long as vet gets a powerfist im happy
wat if it goes to orgyn
Back at 30k probably
I recall there being some figures that had power fists in place of arms
charonites but those are great crusade/horus heresy era oggies used by the solar auxilla
and borderline if not outright heretical
admech isn't a fan of em
What about this? I think those are servo ogryns but maybe we can not be unalive to get that arms?
If we ever get power fists on orgyn I hope we have a special that on kill we pull in half the enemy we killed
Any rules of thumb for curios?
For non havoc aim for 200 plus hp
I'm pretty sure I have 3 rn
2x hp and 1 toughness or 1x hp and 2 toughness are usually the ways to go for vet
I just have a bunch of extra xp right now because that seemed good to start woth
You havenāt hit 30 yet?
28 or 29 rn i think
Not a rule of thumb but in my experience:
170-200 toughness is enough Vet can reach more than 250 tougness with all 3 curios plus 5% in each one but is useless you are loosing resistances or stamina generation going with too much toughness.
Some builds allow you to choose toughness nodes so play with that.
Weapon specialist build has access to +25 toughness so you can go:
1 toughness/1 stamina/1 wound and you will reach 200 tougness wich is enough for auric/maelstrom/damnation missions.
Also having an extra wound is always welcome having it will make you survive against corruption attacks that will deplenish you maximun HP.
Stamina curio is very good choice. mostly for weapons like combat knife, devil sword and power sword.
i expect a lot of hate for commenting this š
Ladies, Gentlemen, Fellow Cadian orphans, i know infiltrator is not meta. But it is very fun and reliable when i'm playing solo.
That being said, any recommendations on synergies and skills that synergize well with it?
Dont worry about meta play with the weapons you fell comfortable.
I know, i just want to take as much value as i can from being a sneaky bastard
Helbore, lasgun, acatran with marksman keystone is very fun playing as a sniper.
Acatran, revolver, shotgun, DB shotgun, plasma, braced/infantry AUG, bolt pistol are very good with weapon specialist keystone.
My build for sneaky bastard š
Combat blade/bolt pistol
Flak/maniac
Fleshtearer/uncany
I havent tested this build in auric but in maelstrom/damnation has carry me very good
Thank you brother, i'll take the advice to heart
Iād skip the brittleness on hit node
Itās pretty bad
Only thing Iād advise against is wounds
If youāre using serrated blade Iād drop ft mercy killer
And if youāre not using a full auto gun rending strikes isnāt worth
But looks good
Mk4 for brain off
Or Mk. II
Mk2 is a better Mk4 but you have to use your brain
Valid
'Solo'?
Reporting you to Fatshark for heresy
Just save your brain and go mk4
Good tips thanks
can u expand on dat?
i personally run 3 toughness curios with combat ability regen, stam regen, and gunner resistance since +5 toughness doesnt mean anything when its getting shredded from range by gunners. do what u want tho
Listen, sometimes i just want a safety net for when my team's psyker deliberate starts shooting at the daemon host
It has the same H1 as Mk4
But a different H2 which is used for hordes, so you gotta learn the combos for first target and horde clearing
It's a Mk4 with a better horde clear

I threw a grenade at one today. Lol
Uh skip the wound curio though
Rest is mostly up to you
Though 200+ hp is a very nice to have
This guy was another level, he shot once, saw the thing get up and his character say "Daemon Host, be careful"
And then shot him again
He was given a second chance
š
Listen, if you've got a lasgun there's only one thing you're supposed to do with it. The muscle memory gets you.
Unless you replace that part of your brain with a servo, ofc
You shouldnāt run wound on Veteran Iāll be blunt, you should be focusing Toughness the most with HP or Stam as a back up
PA spam on some weapons 
I use mk 4 

I forgot is mk 3 or 6 better for energized lights with P sword?
6 is better at... everything
Thatās what I thought Iāve had it on 6 but some guy in my game the other day was talking about 3 lmao so I needed to confirm
he's def wrong
instead of taking advice from a random stranger in the game
you should take advice from me, a random stranger on discord
(but jokes aside, feel free to check the pinned guide if you're curious)
one of them has a horizontal attack on h1->h2 , the second on l1->l2
but u need like l1->l2-> block cancel ->...
ps3 was the og though
i should try it again, because suffering is fun
If we could squeeze out a little more attack speed in the veteran talent tree the mk3 heavies would interest me for the horizontal horde clear and Sunder shenanigans. As it stands I think mk6 is the better selection overall.
Guess who just reached level 30 and got their first dueling sword on the same mission š
š
grats, hopefully you can get 100 plasteel out of it
thing with ds is it might get nerfed soon, so id learn other things for now and swap to ds when you got a backup you can use
Haven't even used the DS yet. Might've got one earlier, but this one stuck out to me because it's purple
Mostly use the chainsword atm
since your new, once you max chainsword swap to another weapon
that way you can try out a bunch of different ones
Makes sense. Only picked it up recently. Was using the devil's claw up for a while. Close to maxing it currently.
Why everyone hate wounds?
Having an extra wound is very good for survival overall in auric/maelstrom/damnation for
Corruption.
Just play with everything you feel comfortable.
No evrything has to be meta builds.
the assumption is that at those levels you're avoiding damage, which negates the need for extra wounds. If the extra wounds are needed, your problem isn't that you don't have enough wounds, it's that you're getting hit at all
stamina and toughness curios both help you avoid damage
it's setting yourself up for failure
more wounds you take, the more you'll need those wounds
because your defense stats are lower asa a result
not to mention green stims becoming less useful
I think thsts no a goid argument
this isn't even a question of meta or not meta
Failure?
it's just bad to take wounds unless you need training wheels
even then, just one max
I dont think i am pro player at all
But avoiding damage, yeah its fact that you must avoid damage.
Another fact is that you will recieve damage.
Having an extra wound is good for survival.
I already knew this was gonna be the full argument.
that's fair, but you're referring to auric/maelstrom usefulness. at those levels, you should be taking less damage than your total toughness, and if you're not, you should play more damnation, generally speaking. Corruption is only relevant if you're getting knocked more than twice in a row, which again, shouldn't happen at that level
Below damnation, run more wounds for sure if you like it
I play with 1 extra wound in auric and has saved me many times.
I also have seen other player using it and have survided because of that.
wounds are sometimes worse than no wounds, especially in havoc where there are a lot of sources of corruption
But is havoc
Havoc missions are very different
it'll lock away a portion of your hp bar once the corruption goes past a wound and corruption cleansers such as beacon or field improv wont cleanse it
You need to max hp/toughness to barely survive
but u can run taf/hp and do less knockout
Yes but instead of having 1 chance you have 2.
yeah but the way wounds work is it'll divide your hp into 3 parts, so you only need to be corrupted 1/3 of your hp to lose that wound even without going down
But in havoc i completely agree thats having a extra wound is sueles
1 poxburster might make you be corrupted enough just to lose that wound if you take an extra wound
And you will still have a chance.
With only 2 wounds most the of the pox will kill you inmediately because damage/corruption
1 wound curio is certainly reasonable, I can't be weird and argue about that
not my preference personally but i get that
anything more makes me raise an eyebrow tho lol
nah 1 wound curio is a crutch
and depicting them as a valid choice outside of training wheels to new players is really not cool
what guns are good to run beside plasma with ds or rashad I dont really like plasma
IAG/bolter/SAP/double barrel/revolver/bistol/laspis/recon
ok so I can try some others then I like the recon and the bolter have not tried some of the others yet
that's the beauty of vet
lots of good gun options
downside is that you don't have many good melee options...
I like stub revolver but I can't decide on the mark
Being able to shoot straight is essential, but yeehawing with fanning looks so good...
The zealot has perk that increases your accuracy when dodging, but veteran doesnt
the ADS one is the much stronger revolver
Exec stance: am i a joke to you
fanning wins style points over the ADS revolver tho
instructions unclear, we buffed DS 
maybe try this out: https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9ee41e34-a952-4c23-9b90-9f6284b0dc57/stamina-edger
it's a pretty funny build
shovel still sucks, but this might be the strongest build for it tbh
Didn't think people used all or nothing
it has natural synergies with mk1 shovel (push attack)
and vet (dogshit stam economy)
i mean i'm gonna be real, this is a meme build, but it actually comes together quite well
Yeah I get the shovel isnt that great
But still, it's a unique vet wep so I wish it was at least viable
It is viable
skullcrusher+uncanny to juice the hell out of shredder grenades
and it has good enough damage
Don't wanna juice shredders I want the weapon itself to juice the skulls of heretics
Uncanny and shredders really need to be tweaked
Yes, yes it is a joke

tfw when you practice proper ammo management the entire game getting the most of your weapon while never being a burden to your team and you make it to the final room and since you have a surplus of ammo its time
to let the bolter brain within you loose
I wish I had this clipped
has anyone just instantly died in havoc from....nothing?
full hp, nothing swinging at me, crusher was in a walking animation and I slid up to it to powersword it
and i got deleted with yellow bar even
my only thought is it was a server dysync and the crusher was swinging at me and I couldn't see it
sometimes I wish there was a deadpool activity in the social area where you could bet on the outcome of a randomly ingame streamed havoc run
use steams auto recording feature if you can
i occasionally go back and see what killed me and its usually something i just didnt notice in the moment
at least they didnt take longshot 
Yes
Also i found agrivolver appreciation post on reddit
4 reapers in one second flat
ah yes, the "right" build
Tell me that ''this'' work somehow š
dunno I didn't stick around in the h40 group to find out
that guy gets it
outskilled
4? They can do 6 on a one shot build.
5
Iām specifically referencing an extremely obscure and basically useless piece of shroudfield tech
revolvers have 5 shots
Shroudfield has a minimum duration of a second
wwre talking vet mate
You can fire 4 times in one second
aye
Nuh uh, you said you found a post referencing agrivolver and you said nothing about class
it was vet
My head keeps thinking they are 6 shots.
because im saying it on vet chat
Because well, six shooters.
the fan fire one could use 6 ngl
5 shots is standard for a .50 revolver
it this is 50cal and hinged. those rounds are 455 webley power
You know all I know of guns is from entertainment. Revolvers tend to be 6 shots.
yes
we got 4 shot in drg
yes but it shoots fuck off rounds
the dt revolver is capable of penetrating carapace armor
and can cleave 7 people
becuase game magic
iād classify those as fuck off rounds
That thing blows holes in things.
Uncontrollable massive kick tiers.
the weapon you use for hunting giant bug
i would classify them as rounds that the revolver should not survive
the dt revolver?
yup
our wrists shouldnt survive tbh
do you know anything about gun construction?
plenty of plausible explanations for the revolverās strength
yes!
then you should know that hinged designes died out because round became too powerful
it's all omnissiah will
material science improved! and because of that, we can have hinged revolvers!
the only real complaint i have about guns in this game
is the autoguns being triple stacked magazines
Triple stacked mags being the most cursed shit
yarp
no those are 2 mags stablep together
look closer
yes they are
the seam down the middle?
those are quad stacks
yup
thatās just there so the magazine looks structurally stable
itās not a quad stack magazine
those quad stacks mate
they arenāt bud
iām not gonna bother getting up to prove this
i need to look at them in game
go ahead
theyāre triple stacked lmfao
thereās not enough space on the sides to fit another bullet
all of the magazines look like that
as i remember
2.5 stack
its like 2.5d but for gun nerds
as usual iām rightā¦
sigh,,, itās so hard being sooo perfect aaalll the timeā¦
wrong
iām always right
itās impossible for me to be wrong
we have hammers that can store kinetic energy and release it all at once
i think a uniquely strong gun metal isnāt that out of the question
amfibiohelipoduszkoczoÅgolot what vehicle is that
those revolvers are meant as hiveganger weapon mate
is this meant to be a like
Kurwa Mk1
āname 5 songs from that bandā thing
amphibious helipod* (wtf is an uszkoczolgolot)
im assuming itās a water landing heli
Opens up the book of Everytime Meow Posted Either Knowingly Or Unknowingly; A Falsehood, An Untruth, Meowsinformeowtion, and Knavish Hearsay (foreword is a list of typos)
all of you are wrong
im assuming its a nonsense word
ok frog
I am green but i am not the Frosch
by pulling random bullshit out of my ass, it proves me right!
If i was frosh id be defendin u within an inch of my life
green with envy
envious of how iām right all the time
Like a certain Nvm !
Envious of how PAWESOME and AMAZIN u r ..
siiiiiighā¦
just go back to your signalis hellhole
u canāt handle me being right all the time
and therefor resort to ad hominem
Swagnalis
ok all of 40k is bullshit that the basis
wha
it is
Meow is glowing an irradiated enmoldified brackish purple Redditified glow
i did just tip my fedora
If you actually own a fedora irl I'm ignoring you for three (3) days
you dont have to
i donāt
if youre so correct all the time tell me
Good..
i donāt own any hats i think
or if i do theyāre buried somewhere in my closet and i have zero desire to find them
i think getting one of my friends that hat and a comically large swirly lollipop
for their bday
and getting a picture of them in it
would be incredibly funny
I need to buy one
tell you what
there is nothing for me to be correct on
(She's BORING and hatez Spez Mareenz)
i study them to hate them more efficiently
lets jsut agree to disagree
I looooooove Space Marines
norp
we have our own opinions
I have MY truth
my opinions are objective fact
U have UR truth..
is that truth that weāre all gay for each other
Am I the only person who feels like
opinions are subjective mate
I love the things people decide to call out in sci-fi media
facts are objective
A vein in my forehead bulge whenever I hear "my truth"
yeah my opinions are objective fact
Plasma weaponry and super soldiers? Ok
Revolver? What the fuck
havenāt you heard of double think?
orwell? yeah
i donāt know what ur referencing, all i know is that family guy clip from family guy funny moments #432
Triple stacked autoguns are silly
I hateth them..
Yeah itās cursed but also funny
those could work very well
They would jam every 3 seconds but we pray hard enough they decide to work
do you know anything about gun construction?
ork logic
but ive yet to meet 50cal revolver thats hinged and ait using blackpowder
yep
ot theoretical level yes
on practical level no
then youād know that triple stacked magazines would jam repeatedly
oh this explains a lot
I really donāt know how to explain to you they have magic scifi metals any harder
imagine never having built ur own gun before
i get that
i just like to think about things on our tech level
thats just a chain saw
Chainswords are the stupidest bullshit physically possible
Let alone carapace materials or ceramite
But they look cool
But they have unobtanium tips
but itās not steel! itās mono molecular ceramite
or something like that
And sometimes rlly good ones have disruption fields
So they are the universeās pinnacle of melee weapon design
Erm
Adamantine

Because for some reason the eldar also have them
depends on the sword and whoās using it
didnāt the imperium steel them from the eldar
stwal
step
steal
Simultaneous invention
Itās like the crab thing
All cultures eventually make chainswords
Typo logged
More accurate comparison would be gunpowder
Man
Alot of you guys play DRG too
The horde shooter Venn diagram is a circle
And played is more accurate
š
It's one molecule thick
Which is physically impossible
Especially since we can actully see the teeth
Honestly you swing any of the chain weapons against anything solid (humans don't count) they either foul and jam, or shatter, and kill the wielder.
But it's fictional 40k who cares š
š
"mono-molecular"
*looks inside*
*not invisible to the naked eye*
Uhhh shredder why not
K
Just started the game tbh
Then pick what looks neat to you
Aye sounds good
Thanks mate
Zealot chat isn't helpful at all, best perks for chain axe and bolt pistol?
Pls give me smth that can actually kill maulers and ragers
I could get an axe too
Chain axe slaughterer headtakers flak maniac
Bolt pistol for zealot uhhhhhhhhhh puncture... and idk Run and Gun or DA or something lethal wouldn't really do much. Elite unarmoured I think? I don't play much bolt pistol zealot sorry
I want the veteran outfit that's on the specialist art in talent tree to be honest
Well Dclaw counters ragers
But if you want something to kill ragers and maulers
Dueling Sword 4
Power Sword
Can veterans even use it?
Yes
Damn that's neat
They are not exclusive to Psyker since November or was it December last year
September
Damn I'm way off
o fuck
Look at those Relic Greatsword chads
Which catachan sword to pick?
And what perks to look for
I got agripinaa
4 or 7
Flak Maniacs
Blessings are Rampage + Shred/Savage Sweep
I got one in the shop with +10% to carapace
Sounds useless on this sword
Oh nvm that's a catachan blade
The knife I mean
I got a catachan sword here with +4% damage in weak points and another one with +1 stamina
Oh and there is a helbore lasgun as well
You can change the perks at Hadron later
K thx
I'll take the one with damage I think
Then I might get a helbore lasgun
Spokojnie jak nabijesz mistrzostws to bedziesz mógÅ se zmieniaÄ wersje
I jak masz pytania bij do mnie
K dziÄki
for powersword, do you dump cleave target or cleave damage?
Target
Hardly, I aim in the general direction of the enemy and somehow land multiple consecutive headshots
Agri revolver is 100% accurate if you're just lucky
Is chained deathblow + deathblow a good combo for vet heavy sword WS build?
or should I go deathblow + headtaker?
Did the same
3 headshots in a row from lasgun distance
Nope
Besides
Chained Deathblow is bugged
Only 10% chance across all tiers
Now try to hit consistent headshots with the lasgun, lmao, I'm not even certain it could be done with aim cheats
I see thanks
Oh you guys are talking about the hitbox thingy
Yeah Zarona projectile is huge
Compared to lasgun
That and the lasgun's hit reg is funky at best. Walking around clicking heads and registering as body shots
what talents do you use for shotgun?
Which shotgun
double barrelled
for the future. if you say shotgun most people will assume youre talking about combat shotguns not hte DB
in the present, what's a valuable build for the double barrelled?
I don't got a build with me rn
But it goes the usual
And ends at Weapon Specialist with Always Prepared
Flechette Manstopper for infinite cleave bleed lol
No thanks I will get the braced autogun
On the subject of shotguns, with the Onslaught talent (continuous hits to a single target adds a stack of 2.5% brittleness. max 16 stacks) does it apply the brittleness once per shot or can each pellet in a shot apply a stack of brittleness?
is slaughter spree good?
Pretty sure thatās the case
That's a tactical axe blessing
Not good
Doesn't help when you need it
VETERAN
SPEAR WEAPON
pointy stick seems more of a zealot thing
lies
Everyone needs a good pointy stick and a heavy rock
Glaive would be better
Can cut and stab
Counterpoint
Helbore bayonet
It's a pointy on a shooting stick

they'd just use a long piece of rebar lmao
yeas
Darktide trailer at the end showed a small, fast, feral beast that attacks humans
