what about unyielding/monstrosities

8.4 second crusher/mauler test

tall torrent
#

Very fair and balanced

#

U have to be smoking a special kind of crack if you think psyker ranged anti-carapace is better than their melee anti-carapace

tame lodge
#

Obs going from bad to top tier

tall torrent
#

Usually melee

#

There’re a few ranged weapons good at it

austere mica

#

i was mostly using helbore + power sword, cuz i randomly got a perfect helbore, but then i randomly got a perfect recon and i was like 'eh i'll try it' even if it's not the usual archetype i go for. Doin a buncha lasguns on vet before i move on to different weapons on arbites

muted peak
#

I cant find anything related to blessings there?

#

And I don't know if thats my issue but there is no classification

#

Should I just swipe down to see what I am looking for untill I see it?

crude star
#

you go to the weapon you're looking for, and it'll have the perks and the blessings under each mark

muted peak
#

I can't see it

#

You mean the important talents part?

crude star
#

oh, it looks all wonky

muted peak
#

Yeah I think the file got smooched when I tried to open

crude star
#

it's above the important talennts, there it says headtaker and slaughterer

muted peak
#

I'm away from my pc so don't want to be bored

crude star
#

or thrust on the other mark

muted peak
crude star
#

yep, and the stuff right above those are the perks

muted peak
#

Thank you buddy but I have another issue

#

I tried rebless my weapon but It said the blessing was not available

crude star
#

get yer mastery up i guess

muted peak
#

So do I have to open every single blessing by upgrading each weapon sodo I get them?

crude star
#

yeah, get yer mastery up so you can unlock the blessings to put in

muted peak
#

Okay thank you

#

These fatshark games are so hard to find infos on sometimes

THANK GOD

Thank you brother

tame lodge
#

Yeah I don't know why it does that

muted peak
#

The only question on my mind is

#

What the heck SP and PA is

tame lodge
#

SP is probably special

#

PA is push attack

#

Bc is block cancel

I hate word files

# tame lodge Yeah I don't know why it does that

Mobile sites do all sorts of shit like that, even more than desktop versions of sites. Often it's enough to remove the "m." at the start of a URL to make it load the desktop version of the site instead. That is, if the site itself doesn't provide with the option to use the desktop version to begin with(many do)

@narrow frost So every Veteran was just yelling at the downed one to get his karking stuff together and get back up?

yes

#

Sounds like fun

sage cairn
#

tried out the P.Sword some more after some tweaks and fixing curious

#

it really is life changing after learning to animation cancel the special

#

for the past few days i really liked playing small lasgun vet with devil claw sword

#

just shooting shooters

#

and specials

#

CoD build

sage cairn
#

what's everyone's choice of Nades though

#

is it Krak or Frag

pallid jetty
#

frag > krak

sage cairn
#

bleedy bois

pallid jetty
#

no

#

its stagger

sage cairn
#

oh its for the stagger?

#

dan

pallid jetty
#

bleed is just a good bonus

sage cairn
#

I see

pallid jetty
#

and bleed works only if you throw like at least 2 grenades

sage cairn
#

✍️ ima take note

#

Vet has been fun so far

pallid jetty
#

have been fun for me with the lasgun build

#

taking cover, doing headshots

#

not being op and killing everything is fun

sharp epoch
#

I like recon lasgun for that type of build

pallid jetty
#

i let my team to deal with bosses and armor enemies

sharp epoch
#

works up to havoc then you basically need to be able to kill armor on your own or your dead

pallid jetty
#

darktide makes it super fun if you want to watch back

#

it actually sucks that most people dont use cover in the game

#

even tho the tutorial teaches you to do so

sharp epoch
#

other classes its more effective to run straight at shooters/gunners or you'll just be pinned down

sage cairn
sudden cedar
#

Every class will benefit from cover when it is raining bullets.

severe jolt
#

it's crazy how many don't have the instinct to do it
is this their first FPS game?

sudden cedar
#

Maybe?

spring ocean
#

likely the case

#

I know alot of people that have played darktide have never played vermintide in any capacity, and only got darktide because it's 40k and you can play as an ogryn

hollow ibex
# sage cairn I see

2 frags can wipe out most horde enemies, but yeah 1 frag is mostly for stagger

sage cairn
sudden cedar
#

There is a lot of shooting involved, but more melee combat too.

#

In fact, you have to learn both or you will just kiss the ground a lot.

placid igloo
#

Can anyone provide me with a link to a good smoke vet build?

It's good, but ends up depending on the weapon

uncut pebble
grand nymph
#

Anyone got any tips for the Be Methodical penance? Can't seem to get enough elites to replenish volley fire

crisp wraith
#

I’d add the other node next to exec’s stance that highlights regular shooters too, gives you more targets

grand nymph
#

Does that mean regular enemies replenish the stance too? Not quite sure

crisp wraith
#

Regular enemies armed with ranged weapons, yes

#

Basically, any enemy that’s highlighted will extend the timer

grand nymph
#

I see, should I also try and solo missions? team usually obliterates everyone before I get the full 20s

crisp wraith
#

Solo will put you in with bots that you’d have even less of a control over, unless you try and kill them and leave yourself on your own completely

grand nymph
#

Aren't bots worse than actual players tho? So they should be getting less kills and more for me no?

crisp wraith
#

Yes, but unlike other players, they stick by you at all times, so if you can shoot an enemy, so can they, other players have the odds of being in the wrong place or facing the wrong way to the enemy

grand nymph
#

Guess I just gotta keep spamming missions and praying then

crisp wraith
#

Yeah, that’s usually how penances go

grand nymph
#

Do you recommend heresy or damnation for potentially more elites?

crisp wraith
#

If you have that shooter node active, you just need a lot of shooting enemies, not specifically elite, so either of those difficulties are good, but naturally heresy and damnation have more enemy spawns, more enemies = more possible shooters

#

Just wait until you see a big group of people shooting at your squad to activate it and if you’re lucky, you’ll get it eventually

Hello there

I no speak english

"Could someone help me complete the penance 'Make Every Shot Count'? I would really appreciate your help."

#

Alguien aquí habla español??

long dove
#

should I go 2 health curios and 1 toughness or 2 toughness and 1 health?

hollow ibex
#

either will work

#

it's helpful in aurics/AM to have >200hp

#

to tank bursters/snipers

long dove
#

so roughly 200? Like close?

hollow ibex
#

specifically above 200

long dove
#

can you hit 200 with a single health curio?

hollow ibex
#

so it limits your perk optionsa a bit

long dove
#

what perks should I have?

#

I have some sprint efficiency and a stamina regen

#

2 gunners and 1 sniper

#

and a ability cooldown

sour badger
hollow ibex
#

3x sprint efficiency, the rest can go into hp/toughness/gunner or sniper resist/ordo dockets/cdr

long dove
#

the toughness can reduce damage from gunners and sniper pretty well right?

cosmic aurora
#

Do I really need the improves grenade perk for krak grenades?

hollow ibex
long dove
#

wait so sniper bypasses toughness?

hollow ibex
#

yes, and bursters too

#

which is why hp still matters even though vet has a lot of synergies with toughness

long dove
#

So 200 preferably

#

got it

#

So 1 sniper, 3 sprint, 3 health, and maybe 2 toughness/cdr?

#

for curio perks?

thanks for this advice. it works extremely well with power sword. the push + activation is near instant which also makes the stabbing combo very quick. using this has greatly improved my survivability and ability to stand my ground. knowing i can have powered stabs near instantly has also helped fighting captains even if the weapon is not ideal

# odd girder Yeah i need to max it for blaze away im assuming?

I would advise against Blaze Away till you are more experienced, since I would assume hitting headshots with the delay whilst firing quickly enough to not let Blaze Away stacks drop isn't the easiest thing in the world. Rising Heat is much simpler to use and a good starting point.

The vig is really only worth anything if you take marksman and voc is the meta for a reason. Personally? I think the vig beats the helbore, but you do have to reload the vig and the ammo capacity is quite low. All the las rifles and pistol are better ultimately along with the bolt options and plasma rifle, but it absolutely is still an A tier gun arguably better than the revolver now

dry cloak

# dry cloak Vag benefits from exe stance a lot

Yeah, exe is just unfortunately still such a waste to take in hav40 since voc keeps your party alive and the damage isn't that significant of a difference between the two with a meta gun like the plasma rifle

#

I am tired of the hav40 meta, but it is what it is. Aur damn is more fun to play typically these days for me since I don't have to meta whore and save my ass in the event of the game director being an asshole.

anyways this is what I named it

Sometimes you really do need to melee on a dime

midnight wyvern

would be cool if it came out powered, or you could power it on its way out

#

like how the GS on Psyker and Zealot have unique draw attacks (or atleast the psyker one does) you could charge the power sword when drawing it in a similar way

Question: is there a point on stealth veteran? I ask because it feels that the class doesn't feel that build for melee damage and the suppression of it feels like the smoke nades but without ammo needed. Sure is safer than Exe stance, but that can do marvels for some guns like Boltgun and Helbore (even if it feels that should give some toughness while it is active)

Vet has lines signaling that they believe that's the right way, but I have issues figuring it's potential when it has so many nodes compared to the other skills all while it feels that the base form would need at least to have that extra damage build in.

melee weapons won't get breakpoint tables

I'm not dedicated enough to list cleave damage for all 6 armor types

Vet melee is garbo anyway

tall torrent

15 ranged weapons left to go

void dragon
#

Path will beat ObeseFish with his guide before they Announce the Vet rework

sudden cedar
#

No hiding from Cadia's vengeance.

tall torrent

it'll take a while

#

besides I'm sure vet rework will be mostly talents

void dragon
grand perch

maybe 3 bleed stacks on serrated blade

hollow ibex
tall torrent
#

more interesting imo

#

cuz previously it was balanced by denying u counterfire (can't refresh volley fire timer)

hollow ibex
#

if ogryn can get a free reload baked into PBB

#

vet can get a free reload as part of ES, but at a 1 point cost or something

tall torrent
#

and exe stance current iteration wants u to maintain it

#

it's even baked in

void dragon
#

Ogryn should NOT reload the rumbler on lucky bullet imo

hollow ibex

rather than being forced to take a specific keystone

vet gotta be the most underpowered class now

Arbites will be "Vet, but cooler and with dogo"

It will have no chance

tall torrent

they can technically get themselves storm bolters and heavy bolters if they wanted tbh

hollow ibex

are those human-usable weapons?

You could have it as like anytime you gain 1 stack it gives X% of your stock ammo into your mag

#

Like always prepared

#

So it rewards you for hitting heads as well

tall torrent
#

pretty much nothing except mechanicus-gadgets are off the table for arbites' arsenal

#

and even mechanicus-gadgets are like
more for political reasons?

tall torrent
void dragon
#

But I imagine bolter guns would be mostly for vehicles unless the small huma-baby-size ones like the spear bolter

tall torrent
#

bolters are not made for anti-armor

#

they're made to kill normal things extra hard

#

melta and plasma are made for anti-armor

void dragon
#

But they use it on vehicles, at leas the tabletop game said so

hollow ibex
#

not the cops

sudden cedar
#

Extreme Overkill to make everyone that survives get the message.

hollow ibex

but that's why the cops gotta level up their gear

hollow ibex

so a decade from now, they're heavily armed enough that they can invade sovereign nations

Pretty sure the A. Arbites would have its own set of tanks

sudden cedar
#

They do not, but make use of common imperial vehicles.

void dragon
#

So they can have some Leman Russ tanks

stoic thorn
#

Alr

#

Arbites can get Netters and Heavy Stubbers

#

If the Kill Team is anything to go off of

#

By webbers

#

I mean the Trappers Webber

sudden cedar
#

Including Rhinos, Repressors, Chimeras and Leman Russ Battle Tanks. They also make use of Valkyries and something called the Brawler T8, which is similar to the Vulture Gunship.

stoic thorn
#

The Kill Team one functions differently

#

It's been described to "fire paralysing chemicals"

sudden cedar
#

Sounds like an Imperial Guard Hellhound.

stoic thorn
#

As opposed to the net

stoic thorn
#

This one just stuns em

sudden cedar
#

Hellhound Variant.

stoic thorn
#

Considering it hits on 3s

#

I can assume it's a flamer esque firing mode

#

We could also get a leash thing for the dog

#

Maybe subclass

#

Leashmaster

#

Arbites also get a Grenade Launcher if it interests you

sudden cedar
#

For that, Subclasses would have to exist first and they don't really exist.

grand perch
sudden cedar
#

Perhaps yeah.

stoic thorn
#

We might get a Soulguilt Scanner

#

Which kinda functions as an auspex?

sudden cedar
#

We might get all sorts of things. Probably not.

void dragon
#

Still craving to know what skills the Warhammer Judges will have in game, one should probably give dog a bolter to fire while it's attacking

sudden cedar
#

You will know in roughly 12 days.

stoic thorn

#

I think FS might give us an Excruciator Maul

void dragon
stoic thorn

It sounds VERY much on the table

grand perch

stoic thorn

IIRC rn they're just giving us

The Shotgun

Shotpistol

#

Assault Shield and Shock Maul

void dragon
sudden cedar
#

@grand perch The infamous Veteran Rework.

stoic thorn
#

The other obe

#

There is no other one

#

I don't think FS would like an Executioner Shotgun tho

#

Strobing Phospor Lumen sound like it would be a grenade option

#

Or an aura ability

sudden cedar
#

They'll just get the Duelling Sword and everyone will take it.

#

What? You know it's going to happen.

grand perch
#

nah

stoic thorn
#

GW probs won't let it happen

grand perch
#

im ready for them to throw their hands up and just nerf all DS adms into the ground and give it 0.5 cleave KEKW_ogryn

Please just buff the combat shotgun

sudden cedar

Combat Shotguns are viable weapons.

stoic thorn
#

Ammo on it is terrible

#

We can redeem it

No.

Psyker had a Knife, i had a TacAxe and the Veteran had a Chainaxe.

#

No Duelling Sword necessary.

tall torrent
#

If it had similar breakpoints as smth like boltpistol the ammo count is fine

sudden cedar
#

Essentially, the Kickback is what a shotgun should be like.

#

The Combat Shotguns are not like that.

stoic thorn
#

Also we need better sound design on it

#

I don't hear it racking

#

We don't even rack it

#

Shotgun magic

sudden cedar
#

Having more damage on the weakspots with a shotgun is.. not really what a shotgun should do.

stoic thorn
#

Shotguns blow people's guts out and throws them to the next hab

tall torrent
stoic thorn
#

Considering fuckers can live through a plasma blast I'm assuming their guts are GONE

tall torrent
#

I don’t think any gun has outrageously low ammo pool, but a lot of them aren’t that great in ammo efficiency (which is often done for balance and it’s not done terribly imo)

Combat shotguns are by far the worst in that regard

sudden cedar
#

They live through a plasma blast because the game difficulty requires it to be so.

stoic thorn

sudden cedar

It just is what more HP does.

(again)

grand perch
#

so each individual shot has less cost

tall torrent

separate from "ammo efficiency"

grand perch

that sounds like hair splitting to me

tall torrent

because there's 1 gun with really high ammo efficiency but bad ammo sustain

What ranged weapons are good/get better by paring them with the falter blessing of the shock maul?

tall torrent
brazen mural
#

Is it bugged?

tall torrent
brazen mural
#

I remember there being talk about falter, Hot Shot and Lethal Proximity being blessings you could put on a few of the ranged weapons, that would help other aspects of your build

grand perch
#

NEVER HEARD THAT SAID ABOUT FALTER

#

woops caps

severe jolt
#

It's just a fatshark moment.

brazen mural
#

Hmm, I am pretty certain that there was a shock maul blessing that was referred to as one of those "unique blessings". Might have been theory's that it would help ranged weapons when people saw the description. I no joke got the tip about faulter being able to help ranged weapons from this server, Ibelive it was in Jan or Feb.

Well, if it is a FatShark moment..

tame lodge
#

Yeah they just ported the description of ranged weapons when falter was sent to Smaul

brazen mural
#

It would be cool if we had more blessings that interacted with other things than the weapon they are stuck to

severe jolt
brazen mural
#

Makes sense, I must have been hearing about it before lot's of people had tested it/knew it not to be true

#

There must be some juicy weapon combos for the Hellbore with Hot Shot? I can imagine the Heavy Sword would benefit from it?

#

Maybe even the combat axes? Or do they get to much cleave then?

#

If combined with deathblow/brutal momentum^^

brazen mural
#

Shovel must benefit from it, it has nice wide arcs for headshots

tame lodge
#

You could suddenly kill 6 or more trash horde

#

Instead of the casual 4

#

And yeah Hotshot Shovel is a thing

hollow ibex
#

On antax or something? Cuz on Rashad it won't do anything

tame lodge
#

Yes it would

#

1.5 base cleave

#

1.25 mass reduced by 80% is 0.25

#

0.25 times 6 is 1.5

#

So the first 4 targets takes full damage

#

The 5th target takes 2nd target damage

#

2nd target damage is pretty high on Rashad

#

6th target takes 3rd target damage

hollow ibex
#

Oh right it's the achlys that has less than 1 cleave

#

Still wouldn't bother with it

#

The build to make it work is going to be very fucking ass to play

#

For what. So you can hit two extra poxxers, maybe?

tame lodge
#

Headtaker sends that cleave to ~1.8

#

0.25 times 7 is 1.75
Times 8 is 2

#

Now the thing is

#

What's the minimum cdd for Rashad

#

The 3rd target damage with Headtaker is ~200

#

And I have no info on the 4th target damage

#

So it either defaults to 33 or 66

#

Or the third target damage is the minimum, which is pretty high so I assume it's not

hollow ibex
#

Realistically you prob won't get that much utility given the attack angles

It's pretty easy

#

All you need is information that isn't present in-game

hollow ibex
#

I've also tried shovel hotshot and it felt like ass too

tall torrent
#

and its tooltip in game is pretty bad

tame lodge
#

Hey 👋 Path

#

Do you know the Rashad's minimum cleave damage?

tall torrent
#

it's entirely dependent on BM

tame lodge
#

Figured you'd say that

#

My best guest is that it would default to ~66 at the 4th target

#

Or 33

There's like 3 DH there

supple laurel

thought it was guaranteed 1 on malice, 2 on heresy, 3 on damnation

tame lodge
#

There's at least 1 guaranteed boss at Damnation

#

Then you either roll for a second boss or a patrol

agile forge
#

What is a patrol, mechanically?

#

is that when you get the big value multipack of crushers?

tame lodge
#

Yes that's one of the fifteen patrol comps iirc

#

If they aren't aggro'd you can hear their march and chant

severe jolt
tame lodge
#

When a horde spawns it aggros present enemies, patrols included

sudden cedar
#

The scariest patrol is the Reaper patrol

#

You get like 6+ Reapers

#

Not much of an issue if you run into it, but if it catches you unawares.. yeah.

tame lodge

Woe 6 shields upon ye

severe jolt

supple laurel
loud belfry

an interesting form of one shotting

supple laurel

i dont think theres a build for any class in the game that has a build capable of oneshoting a boss with a ranged weapon

agile forge

you can do it in one volley from an agripinaa revolver iirc?

#

but not one shot

supple laurel
#

i mean kill a boss with one magazine

#

but i mean one bullet just now

#

i just had bad wording on my part previously, meant in one magazine

agile forge

Yeah, that'd probably not be particularly healthy for the game if you could lol

supple laurel

probably not lmao

agile forge

eh, you used to be able to do a monster without reloading on achlys twin stubber

with burny PBB

best build i know of atleast

worthy terrace

that was awesome

supple laurel
# worthy terrace drop the build plz

you need to use executioners stance and a combat stim together. you can oneshot a demonhost if you get enough headshots on malice, as for heresy i dont know and i doubt on damnation

sleek garden
#

Oh it's in malice

supple laurel

youll still have good boss damage otherwise but you wont be able to magdump a boss and kill it within one mag

i could probably try with something with focus target
