And expanded the blessing pool

ember nest
#

at this point I'm basically using DS or knife as reposition tools

atomic void
#

this weapon just feels like it exists for people who want to play """"""Ethically"""""""

crude wind
#

Chain axe is... Very average. Evis is better but still not where it should be imo

atomic void
#

(make the game harder for yourself)

ember nest
#

I was havving the most fun auric games of my life yesterday and will put it into practice in havoc when I feel up to it

crude wind
#

Devil's claw at least has its parry rager niche

atomic void
#

the parry is really funny

#

but that's about it

#

i dont feel like its a real weapon outside the parry

ember nest
#

isn't chsword 13G like okay if you lightspam it

crude wind
#

It's one of the only weapons that lets you comfortably solo 15 dreg ragers in melee without getting kersplatted. So at least it has that.

sudden cedar
#

Devils Claw is amazing against unarmoured enemies and can clear those reasonbly well, for everything else however you have to hit unarmoured body parts or look for an alternative, because against armour it really is not great.

past stratus
#

Parry is such a cool mechanic

ember nest
#

si it marksman's focus that's required to make it hit a 1shot breakpoint against these

sudden cedar
#

You can also parry a daemonhost and defeat it that way.

#

Although i wouldn't want to wake up a daemonhost just for that anyway.

#

But hey, you could.

past stratus
#

I once read someone in reddit saying that if you mastered the Claw sword, you could beat anything in the game

#

made me remember of that "I studied the blade" meme

sudden cedar
#

I can see that.

#

Although it would take some time.

past stratus
#

maybe that's the missing link, instead of complaining about melee on Vet, we should all be studying the blade

sudden cedar
#

I mean, as a defensive tool i can see it being really good.

unreal nova
ember nest
#

and the obligatory 4 bulwarks

past stratus
#

idk if any melee weapons work on all of that at once

open ravine
#

Its not like it has low stats

tame lodge
#

Crowd control dump

open ravine
#

just the one with best damage stats for current demonstration

tame lodge
#

So you intentionally used a poor shield on your presentation

#

That's crazy

atomic void
open ravine
#

Wouldnt affect single target

atomic void
#

ogryn shield is NOT weak

#

its just boring as shit

open ravine
#

Its cleave is crazy but i feel pickaxe is just better overall for damage

past stratus
#

that's like the point isn't it? The shield is a defensive option

#

the pickaxe is offensive

open ravine
#

But arbite shield can dish out damage

tame lodge
#

So does ogryn

past stratus
#

well

tame lodge
#

Literally Skullcrusher is right there

#

And you know

open ravine
#

Like I know the arbites use an electrified weapon but I just feel ogryn would hit harder

tame lodge
#

400% melee damage

past stratus
#

all of the arbite weapons are fairly out of line with the rest of the game, shield looks like it swaps faster than knife lol

open ravine
calm shard
#

the arbites shock maul is very good but it's not the best melee in the game or anything

#

the shotguns feel a lot better than they actually are

open ravine
#

The arbites weapons were done incredible well

calm shard
#

the one where you aren't gimping your shield (and probably talent tree) to prove a point

past stratus
#

that ogryn shield is so small, is that a skin? It looks cool

calm shard
#

don't tell the inquisitor but it's actually a smaller version of the bulwark shield

past stratus
open ravine
tame lodge
tame lodge
#

You're claiming stuff without knowing

#

That's crazy

šŸ’€

calm shard
#

90% of the time

#

it's not very fun

sudden cedar
#

@ember nest Let's just say, if you mess up your parry, you end up a pancake on the floor

past stratus
#

didn't a guy post a video here doing some crazy parrying against a big mob of maulers and crushers? Right after the patch

ember nest
#

abuse stuff

open ravine
#

So ogryn shield is strong because of certain blessing and H1 spam using block canceling. How isn't that a problem

#

I would rather it get buffed and blessings and stuff get sorted

ember nest
#

Welcome to the 'tide series

#

It will get worse

#

Somehow

unreal nova
tame lodge
#

Because that's all shield does

#

Spam H1 ad infinitum

#

Light attacks are griefing

unreal nova
#

H2 only in massive crowds?

tame lodge
#

No need

#

You got brutal momentum

#

Just H1

past stratus
unreal nova
#

I don't.

tame lodge
#

Another brutal momentum moment

tame lodge

tame lodge
#

I dropped BM for Opportunist a long time ago

unreal nova
#

I run opportunist.

#

For rending to bonk crushers more.

tame lodge
unreal nova
#

Is rending, right?

#

Push into heavy spam, giggle at bleed ramp up.

tame lodge
#

Yeah on staggered enemies

#

With a touch of Skrusher

unreal nova
#

Yes, I also run brittle on push.

#

Because funni.

atomic void
#

is it cracked? sure but other classes have weapons with much faster ttk

ember nest
#

I like to think its just because of how "planly" strong it is

calm shard
ember nest
#

You just click shit and it dies eventually due to stagger shenanigans and you dont have to lkme

calm shard
#

it's a problem because any old dumbass can perform with it

#

if something is strong but still has to interact with the game that's fine mostly

ember nest
#

Charge a heavy, cancel an activation, etc

atomic void
ember nest
#

You go gorilla greet a crusher's skull

unreal nova
atomic void
#

lets nuke the crusher too gigaxi

calm shard
#

one random poxwalker deciding that my last dodge "didn't count" and I get stunned because they hit my block

ember nest
#

Honorable metal gear poxwalker

atomic void
unreal nova
atomic void
#

but yeah my point is if we're nuking this one we should also look into every single weapon that can nuke things with simple combos and that's a headache lol

#

cause that's the entire game almost

ember nest
#

Arbi's blessings are just really good

atomic void
#

it's the tree too

ember nest
#

Er

#

Tree

#

Meant tree

atomic void
#

above foreceful there's a whole section that is just "breath and get 15% dmg"

ember nest
#

The "count as staggered" and "against staggered" stuff is great and makes me wish vet had more enemy state interaction

atomic void
#

concussive is one of the perks of all time

tame lodge
#

Stagger heavy class nottroll

calm shard
#

specifically by applying that state to them

#

šŸ‘

ember nest
#

Thats the plan šŸ˜Ž

calm shard
#

I would kinda like to see veteran have a lot more focus on marked targets tbh

ocean swallow
#

am i griefing if i dont take a keystone talent
seen some recon las builds with no keystones am i being trolled

atomic void
calm shard
#

They have a lot of ways to mark enemies and unique interactions for it already

atomic void
calm shard
#

Yeah I think something like EO

#

but shared with the whole gang

ember nest
#

What if krak grenades forced all tic damage on an enemy to apply at once clueless

calm shard
#

Obviously not with EO's busted ass effects

past stratus
#

is the hammer of the emperor guide outdated?

calm shard
#

well no because veteran hasn't been updated lmao

atomic void
#

replace the dog perks on EO with teamwide support effects

calm shard
#

Yeah basically have that be a rework to make Focus Target less boooooooooring

#

Do a Warframe and give it an upgrade where the mark spreads to nearby enemies when the target is killed

ember nest
#

Isnt that kinda sorta what that one node from it does kinda

tame lodge
#

I forgot to ask path or exhillious

#

If trauma blessing would extend the period of that Arbites talent

calm shard
#

Damn now I really want middle tree vet to just be Banshee from warframe

tame lodge
#

Weakspot considered staggered for 5 seconds

ember nest
#

Stealth vet finally meta but at what cost

tame lodge
calm shard
tame lodge
#

Because vet hasn't changed much

calm shard
#

I was there playing her with no shieldgating

tame lodge
#

There's a steam version on the works

calm shard
#

When she had lower base health, no prime, and no armor

tame lodge
#

Path is just on vacations rn

ember nest
#

That sounds dogshit

#

Like

#

Genuinely dogshit, bread

calm shard
#

Most fun warframe in the game

#

Sonar is my favorite ability in that game

#

Silence is also a banger

#

her other abilities?

#

uh

#

don't ask

ember nest
#

"Most fun warframe"

Look inside

Only 2 abilities

calm shard
#

Well yes but those 2 abilities are very fascinating

#

and hey some warframes only get by with 1

ember nest
#

Not that fascinating for that title lmfao

calm shard
#

Especially the old ones

ember nest
#

Who

#

A lot of frames are fine these days

#

Banshee and chroma are serviceable but need help

calm shard
#

Limbo, Volt, Nova, Titania, Khora, Equinox immediately come to mind

#

I kinda like Equinox tho she's fun

ember nest
#

?????

#

nova

one ability

#

Huh

calm shard
#

Molecular Prime is the only thing you are using on her

ember nest
#

volt

Huh

calm shard
#

And it's just Sonar but different

ember nest
#

??????,,

calm shard
#

Volt you are either building for only speed

ember nest
#

Have you kept up with the nova rework

#

At all

calm shard
#

or only discharge

ember nest
#

Volt hasn't been mr discharge in ages

#

Use shock trooper

calm shard
#

oh did she get reworked

ember nest
#

Y e a h

calm shard
#

Anyways the only thing Banshee would need is for her 1 and 4 to be reworked

#

Sonar stacking with itself is arguably a problem but who cares at this point in warframe "balance"

ember nest
#

Volt got launched back into relevancy
Limbo is fine but most builds steal silence from banshee for him

calm shard
#

Yeah gee I wonder why people would want to use Silence with all those super engaging Eximus units around

ember nest
#

Titania is just

#

A monster

#

Needs too much forma tho

calm shard
#

Yeah I guess it's not really fair to call an exalted weapon one button

#

Hey at least she isn't Sevagoth in terms of forma

#

I always kinda wanted to play him but holy fuck dude

ember nest
#

No no

#

She's worse

#

Shes so much worse

#

I think I put like 14 forma in her

#

Room nuke sevi just yses augments, shield gating, and roar

calm shard
#

If you want to use Sevagoth's Shadow at all the primary gimmick of the frame

#

You have to forma Sevagoth himself, his shadow, and his shadows claws

ember nest
#

I do

#

With his augments

calm shard
#

Titania is just her and her arch weapon

ember nest
#

I just don't go into the deatb state or use his 4 ever

calm shard
#

so still bad but not as bad

ember nest
#

Her 1 makes her completely status immune

calm shard
#

Oh yeah spellbind

ember nest
#

Lantern unironically aids in alot

calm shard
#

I kinda forgot that's a decent ability

#

I even have it subsumed on my Nyx

ember nest
#

Why

#

Nvm

calm shard
#

Just because it's thematically appropriate

#

I also really don't like Absorb

#

Granted my Nyx is a super meme build

ember nest
#

A lot of frames do a lot more aimply because mors stuff got added to them

calm shard
#

NICE

#

I actually stopped playing shortly before Nyx got that facelift

ember nest
#

1999 was december 2024

ember nest
calm shard
#

Yeah

#

I was getting comically high mind control numbers with the Perigale and Quassus

ember nest
#

Good underrated picks

#

Blast is insane now btw

calm shard
#

worst status effect finally good?

ember nest
#

Blast vectis evade banshee unironically can solo as long as she wants now

calm shard
#

I use a lot of underrated weapons

#

I think my most used gun is the Sybaris Prime?

ember nest
#

That got an incarnon

calm shard
#

I know

#

I never bothered to get it

ember nest
#

Its a decent facelift on raw stats even if you dont use the mode

calm shard
#

Supra Vandal and Quellor are also favorites

#

Or well were

ember nest
#

One of these things are not like the other

#

One is a monstrous demon that does ungodly damage and the other is the supra vandal

calm shard
#

Supra Vandal has high base status chance it can do good damage

#

Also like gun go brrrrt

ember nest
#

My pov of "good damage" is cooked

calm shard
#

It might be mine I have been away from the game for several years

#

I would also have to come back and get the Velox Prime

#

Love that stupid pistol

ember nest
#

It fun

calm shard
#

Slash weighted, stupid high fire rate, and good status chance

ember nest
#

Its what the aksomati wishes it was

#

Vet being able to do shenanigans would be cool

calm shard
#

God just thinking of all the weirdo weapons of Warframe makes me wanna play it again and go collect more weirdo guns

#

And put whack ass builds on them

#

Like my Quatz

grand perch
#

warframe, a game i picked up excitedly and then grew bored of within a little less than 2 hours

calm shard
#

It be that way

ember nest
#

The point of warframe is thinking things are way too easy and then forcing them to be in steel path later

#

Start the game killing everything instantly

#

And then try to kill things instantly forever

calm shard
#

I think my usual go to weapons for Steel Path were the uh

#

Komorex, Akarius, and the Quassus

ember nest
#

Komo sleeper pick

Akarius not sleeper

Quassus mega sleeper

calm shard
#

Twin Kohmak was another pistol I used a lot

ember nest
#

Lots of "hidden gem" weapons in this game nowadays but ppl don't usually get to that point

calm shard
#

And the Cyanex

#

I really liked the oddball status weapons

ember nest
#

Whats it called

#

The uh

#

Steel path duviri

#

Is what got me to start making builds for more than 1 thing

#

Because like, it feels night and day between "I am blowing up everything" and "I am legitimately barely surviving and not doing any damage"

#

Getting stuck with dogshit builds sucks

#

I don't want darktide to ever be like warframe though

#

Its a diff kind of high

#

Could care less what happens to helldivers atp though chadgryn

past stratus
#

I think I might study the claw

ember nest
#

Looking back, I'm glad darktide scales the way it does and keeps even the babyshit mook enemies dangerous (even though a lot of it comes down to them appearing behind you)

#

Forces ppl to acquire actual skills very quickly

#

Now I just wanna see stuff like vet have 3 choices for ult instead of 1

past stratus
#

Poxwalkers are usually more of an issue to me than special enemies, if they are not teleporting behind me they are finding a way to body block me into a death corner

ember nest
#

Lmfao yeah

#

The "horde" is actually a genuine horde by way of sheer bodymass and not just numbers

tall torrent
tame lodge
#

Mogged by dreg bruisers is crazy

past stratus
#

isn't that just the reality of every vet weapon besides the Psword? Oh you want good armor shred? Good luck with hordes. You want good horde clear? Good luck with armor

faint beacon
tame lodge
#

šŸ’€

#

Except dclaw

#

Mind you
Dclaw got buffed like 3 times already

#

None of those addressed the flak issue

past stratus
#

I honestly feel I'd get the same sass if I mentioned any other weapon, they are all shit at something that doesn't justify taking them over the Psword. I use the Psword on every single setup that I have currently, I'm quite bored of it

#

I just want a different type of suffering

sonic kayak
#

Heavy Sword chadgryn

tame lodge
#

It sucks against flak

#

Abysmal

#

Disgusting

#

And the only thing good about it is the parry

past stratus
#

yeah and it has funny parry mechanic so it's ok

tame lodge
#

Woops

#

Your team just staggered everything

tame lodge
#

Enemies can't hit you now

#

You can't parry

#

So now you're just standing there

#

On a parry stance

past stratus
#

that is most games these days, but in those games where I have rabid arbies and ogryns terrorizing the map I don't even get to play the game no matter what setup I use

#

so does it really matter?

tame lodge
#

Yes

#

Because at least you can kill flak with any other weapon

past stratus
#

It's fine, I'm using this while leveling plasma and shotgun

#

So no real hard difficulty

#

Probably just damnation spamming

sudden cedar
#

@past stratus Try the Achlys Combat Axe if you want suffering.

past stratus
#

Isn't the Combat axe generally pretty ok overall?

#

I'm not a fan of axes in general, thematically

tame lodge
#

Achlys axe is the worst axe

#

Play it without Brutal Momentum

#

You will hate yourself

#

It has

#

NO CLEAVE

#

*on lights

past stratus
#

That sounds awful

tame lodge
past stratus
#

I wish darktide had more hammers, I love hammers.

#

My delusional dream is we get Voltann and we get a bunch of hammers so I can be Bardin in 40k

wind trail
#

"dump" stat for plasma gun? i know 68% heat res is the go to, which would u say is the dump stat between charge rate vs ammo

tame lodge
#

Charge Rate

#

Although it affects your rate of fire

#

But plasma really wants the ammo

rough cobalt
#

What is best weapon for havoc, just played with 3 arbites and I just was so useless I need apparently to play meta

tame lodge
#

Melee wise

#

Power sword

#

Ranged wise

#

Recon
Helbore
Laspistol

#

Plasma

#

Bolt pistol for grenadier

rough cobalt
#

Just did Recon and Dueling sword, gonna change to power sword

#

feels like I don't do enough dmg to mini bosses like plauge ogryn and DH

narrow widget
past stratus
#

Shout and follow them around so they get extra ammo. KEKW_ogryn

before it was smaller priority targets but arbites kinda stole our job on that so

#

chadgryn aim true in the service of the emperor

steep flower
heavy rover
#

you can also use it to play more support by stacking brittlness with armourbane, depending on preference

calm shard
heavy rover
#

or be silly with it and run the mk iv with sustained fire for hilarious damage

calm shard
#

Vet has some of the best boss damage in the game

#

Probably 2nd best in the game below rumblergryn

steep flower
calm shard
#

Power Sword also chunks the fuck out of bosses

steep flower
narrow widget
#

like when ammo in mag we balling but as soon as that runs out

calm shard
#

Also vet has several boss damage weapons that never run out

#

because Laspistol, Recon, and Helbore are all viable options

rough cobalt
#

Isn't VoC better in the long run tho?

#

compared to ES

calm shard
#

A bit yes, but exe is still viable even on havoc 40

#

It takes a lot more effort but you do so much goddamn damage

rough cobalt
#

Would it be good with Recon?

calm shard
#

Recon benefits from it the least out of the havoc viable ranged weapons

#

Since it doesn't really do direct damage

ember nest
#

Cant laspistol like 2 mag a pogryn

past stratus
#

the helbore is great, it just got harder to hit things now because there is a big chance of things getting dogged or staggered while you're aiming

narrow widget
calm shard
ember nest
#

Huh

narrow widget
ember nest
#

Man

#

I always feel like I'm missing out on stuff

calm shard
#

Well I am using it with uh

#

deadshot shock trooper setup rn

ember nest
#

Every time I think I know the esoteric knowledge I learn that there is yet more to know

calm shard
#

Mk II laspistol takes almost exactly 1 mag to kill a pogryn

rough cobalt
#

How about infantry lasgun with ES any good or it's same situation as recon lasgun

calm shard
#

Mk X takes about 2/3 of a mag

#

Infantry Lasgun gets a lot of value out of ES

rough cobalt
#

as in havoc 40 viable?

calm shard
#

It's just not a super great gun to begin with

rough cobalt
#

😦

calm shard
#

Dunno haven't tried it

#

It probably doesn't have enough boss damage

tame lodge
#

But you'll need determined

calm shard
#

Also that

#

point tax because infantry lasguns get fucked by suppression

rough cobalt
#

Gonna build a build after this round of havoc 21

tame lodge
#

Or just keep exec stance ad infinitum

#

Except havoc hordes are thicker than normal

#

So you'll be meleeing more

#

Or at least you should be

calm shard
#

If you have a stable frontline you don't need to melee super often even in havoc 40s

#

But you should if there isn't anything for you to shoot

rough cobalt
#

Nvm got wiped out, gonna start doing infantry lasgun build hence a lot of questions coming

#

3 bosses in small room wipe ;D

hollow ibex
#

prepare to suffer with ilas

rough cobalt
#

I'm playing Veteran, suffering is my middle name

calm shard
#

Yeah Ilas on havocs will be a bit rough

#

Probably

#

Has great maniac damage tho so you can delete specials

rough cobalt
#

Should keep both or change something

calm shard
#

brutal momentum over slaughterer

#

on psword

heavy rover
#

I suggest swapping to the mk vi power sword

hollow ibex
calm shard
#

I also personally use Carapace+Elites on poweer sword

narrow widget
calm shard
#

for juicy crusher 2 tap

heavy rover
#

same, carapace + elite

calm shard
#

hit em with one of those

ember nest
#

Is that downswing after poke or

rough cobalt
#

okay psword changed, lasgun is fine?

heavy rover
#

lasgun should be fine

rough cobalt
#

also this is on all my 3 curios

heavy rover
#

you might want to change to a faster mk version so you can keep up ghost more consistently

calm shard
#

I'd argue VII lasgun is better for havocs

heavy rover
#

but in general the infantry las setup is good

calm shard
#

Gets a lot better damage

#

Of course that argument is founded on me winging it since I haven't used the infantry lasgun in havocs

rough cobalt
#

which start middle or right?

narrow widget
#

right

hollow ibex
heavy rover
hollow ibex
#

because mk7 is more breakpoint dependant

#

and havoc breakpoints will change

#

depending on modifiers

#

so i'd say mk2 is better overall

hollow ibex
narrow widget
rough cobalt
#

any change here?

calm shard
#

(don't do that)

rough cobalt
#

I never go left since no toughness regen there ;/

calm shard
#

God I really want Exhilarating Takedown on my exe stance build

#

but vet's tree is too goddamn long and the point taxes mean I can't

#

And the worst part is if Longshot wasn't there I'd be able to

narrow widget
rough cobalt
calm shard
#

no

#

none of them

#

not worth the points

#

the team marking one is especially bad

rough cobalt
#

realy? even counterfire?

calm shard
#

counterfire is okay, but it's not worth it for a havoc build

rough cobalt
#

kk

calm shard
#

You're going to lose something more important for taking it

hollow ibex
#

vet talent tree in a nutshell

rough cobalt
#

Still got 14 points left after this

#

+2 if I ditch granade tinkerer

calm shard
#

I run this down here, but you can take FT as well if you prefer it

narrow widget
hollow ibex
#

mmf without camo feels so ass to play tho

calm shard
rough cobalt
#

Since I don't use grenades as much I didn't take demolition team

grand perch
rough cobalt
#

feels like focus target is easier to manage especially in chaotic situation

#

(3 bosses and nobody knows wtf is going)

calm shard
rough cobalt
#

oh you're right

#

got free 1 point

grand perch
hollow ibex
#

are you skipping the entirety of the bottom right?

rough cobalt
#

uhm what arre red lines and what are red circles

hollow ibex
#

crossed out node = drop

#

circle = take

calm shard
# hollow ibex

how tf are you going to get shock trooper, superiority, and marksman without the ammo node

hollow ibex
#

oops

#

ignore that on lol

hollow ibex
#

i forgot how fucking stupid the vet tree is

rough cobalt
#

dropped deadshot, another free perk point

hollow ibex
#

ammo node is basically a tax node in my head

hollow ibex
narrow widget
#

do your taxes vet bros

hollow ibex
#

at least reciprocity

grand perch
#

you can also skip determined, executioners stance already gives suppression immunity while active

#

thats another point to get to recip + desperado

calm shard
#

I...wouldn't with ilas

hollow ibex
#

yeah tbh

calm shard
#

Exe isn't always up

narrow widget
#

keep their heads down mayb

calm shard
#

And when it's not the gun is unusable against ranged enemies

hollow ibex
#

ES uptime is decent, but still not enough

narrow widget
#

suppression my beloved

steep flower
rough cobalt
#

with suppresion now I'm out of points

grand perch
#

taking a marginally useful node against 1 mechanic instead of getting more damage

rough cobalt
#

gonna switch hp to cd and then try it out

calm shard
grand perch
#

do i know?

steep flower
rough cobalt
#

Painful to look at

grand perch
#

nah i only have over 2000 hours on vet and play ilas with iron sights i have never seen suppression

#

mate cmon

narrow widget
#

fr tho wtf

tame lodge
#

Get suppressed lol

grand perch
#

ES has the best uptime in the entire game possibly. dont take a dead node to get suppression resistance

steep flower
calm shard
#

I play exe vet on havoc 40s

#

It is not always up

grand perch
#

yeah so do i

#

dont take it

rough cobalt
#

what else can I take that requires 1 point tho

#

longshot I guess

calm shard
#

Not having it genuinely makes you dead weight if you do not have exe active or off cooldown

#

You can't shoot anything becase suppression

#

And you don't have good melee because gun build

tame lodge
#

Unfortunately Longshot has poor scaling

calm shard
narrow widget
calm shard
#

I believe most people can agree with me though. Smokes should highlight enemies within. Not only to help allies see within it better, but also help determine size of the smoke cloud.

It’s pretty simple honestly

Throw smokes at feet

Don't throw smokes atop enemy gunner positions

honestly better to even use it more preemptively

before enemies start shooting

But it's safer and easier to just throw it at your feet

because smoke takes a while to deploy

Also means you don't block LoS as much for your teammates
