Sometimes the game is smooth as butter but sometimes punishes you for no reason
Notice how it's only tested on big targets
No tac axe /10
#nooticing
A revolver that can barely 1 shot in heresy won't 1 shot on damnation.
Might be why it can be harder. Things going wrong usually is because things aren't dying fast enough.
god writing in english is so exhausting
I’ve been subjected to so much Deltarune brainrot from @lucid hinge that I was expecting to hear Spamton NEOs theme upon playing this LMAO
Oh now I get it
maybe thats why
you're welcome
it will continue
It's havoc 40 things will tank enough to get at least 30% dmg benefit on the next target anyways so
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Dude this is peak he will never EVER miss a weakspot hit
Yeah I'm that good sorry
Anytime
I don’t even have BO3 downloaded at the moment
I’m coping with the state of 6 cause they basically said it serves no point existing after what they announced and it upsets me
I’d fuck up some waw rn
It’s bleak
If they want a cash grab just remake bo1
based
In H40 it's even easier because you can make them explode the moment they lose their shield
fully abusing relentless, where as if I used precog in that situation it would've uhhhh, be kinda useless cuz they don't get enough time to even attack once
yeah
but that doesn't commonly happen in h40 runs anyways
I'll try
But precog is always gonna be better if there's no shield to burst
in regard to twin alone
captain on the other hand is very easy to keep ruthless value
wish I could somehow force the twin to have a shield
doesn't the damage gate on the shield make that less relevant?
Twins don't have this actually
they don't have the max damage cap
normal caps do
fatshark things I guess
Wait so ADSing increases stagger?
Tac Axe also shreds shields on twins and captains insanely quick just saying
on PC this is a setting that made me play in stable 60fps instead of 40 lol
@tame lodge this is some pretty good value out of relentless
While precog is good when aggro is on you it's pretty much dead weight when it's on someone else or when it can't even move (stuff like book, taunt, and allthat stunning them)
relentless is especially good against fucking slugs
God I hate havoc 40 slugs so this is a blessing
is there another meta melee weapon for veteren other than the duelling sword
power sword and heavy sword are vets meta melee options
not dueling sword
and heavy sword only if you're using mk iv helbore or bolter
really?? it seems like everyone i see on youtube is using the duelling sword
at least thats the only thing ive uses since making a veteren
at least to me it seems broken considering it 2 hits bulwarks
fair enough.
was thinking about trying the heavy sword/bolter combo next but idk if it does well in havoc's since thats my goal
2 shotting bulwarks is far from the reason everyone uses dueling sword
and is one of the least special things about it
the reason everyone runs dueling sword is because it's the easiest to use of any of the weapons that has superior dodges
combat knife and tac axe both have its same defensive boosts, and knife has its same single target focus
if you're not going havoc, lot of people like rashaad
what is rashaad
I got crushed by crushers like 6 times in 3 games, my dodging game is NOT on point today
knife, lots of other options too. personally I hate knife and rather tac axe
I dodge backwards (for some reason) and they hit me beyond the hammer texture lol
ok that makes sense. i only started vet like 4 days ago some im still learning the combos
bet thanks
rashaad's great for newer players imo just really solid
now is boltgun w/ heavy sword good for havocs and if so which bolter should i use
get brutal momentum on it and slaughterer
@calm shard True, that is not the only reason and not the most important one. But come on, two-shotting bulwarks with an easy to use weapon with high mobility? Of course people would use it.
Its like the Plasma Gun.
Fire and forget without having to think much.
Power sword is a very good alternative
Combat knife is also a very good alternative
Duelling sword is the best option
don't let them confuse you
easy or not doesn't matter it still has the highest boss dmg
which you need in havoc lol
I started using knife for fun
Only knoife with maybe WS will save you with back dodges. Also, what you see is different from what the server sees usually... AND hitboxes might be bigger than they look.
So always dodge to the sides ty
Yep. They also lunge forwards when slamming it, giving extra reach.
well no because combat axe and power sword both outperform it
or G U N
power sword?
power sword best bost killer in Havoc?
kind of a crazy statement here
I used duelling sword as it was the closest the game had to a katana tbh
my weeb ass needed it
and it's so fun
#veteran-class message
#veteran-class message
Like, you telling me Powersword does work faster than this?
Only applicable to recon/boltgun
Yeah naw bread is the veteran damage pump knower
I've seen PS do silly burst damage to H40 bosses
ranged trades on bosses in havoc are seriously underrated, being able to plink away constantly while repositioning reduces the time on boss fights by a lot
ps6 definitely can do that when the buffs align
I don't think it's a good idea to use helbore against bosses on havoc
takes lots of time
well the issue with this is le ammo
this is good too
Most of the times when I'm playing a havoc mission with the loadout I used on the videos I posted here
they die very quickly
On Zealot I'm still thinking if precog is better than relentless
but on Vet relentless is 100% the best
Why're you forgetting infantry lasgun? That's legitimately a rifle with infinite ammo on veteran
infantry lasgun is arguably a suboptimal pick due to the fact that it requires the Determined node to be anti gunner
while it's damage isn't high enough to justify the investment
which is why it's usually laspistol or helbore in high havoc
or one of the many reasons
Wait how does that make sense?
you don't get suppressed almost at all with laspistol or helbore when adsing under fire
so you don't need to spend the talent point to get determined to avoid having your reticle jumping around
and the gunner/reaper/small shooter packs are especially deadly and intense on high havoc
Yeah but I'm really used to compensating for recoil. I run ripper gun on ogryn.
it's a much bigger problem for vet because even with dodges you are going to take fire
ogryn with steady grip can get away with a lot
recoil is different from suppression
even with CAB you are going to go down in a split second
so you have to also leverage confirmed kill to ensure your toughness stays at max so you don't instantly drop
also what siro said
Oh you're talking about the thing where you're getting hit by gunners. You can just avoid the guns by not getting in their line of sight.
that's what you are not getting
you do not have that luxury in high havoc
some maps like magistrati are notorious for having sections where every sightline is covered by gunner/sniper/reaper/shooter fire. And when I say fire I mean it's a fucking torrent of fire.
it is nothing like even auric maelstorm
psyker bubbles go down in seconds
I play havocs
I know what it's like
that's why I know it's best to never get hit at all
You don’t need to get hit to get suppressed
Gunner just has to vaguely point in your direction
why heavy sword
power sword is not as high boss sustain but hits higher burst
Sooo best blessings for knife?
I thought the meta melees for vet was combaxe, ds and psword
Depends on if you want bleed or not
Uncanny, uncanny, uncanny.
Then you pick something you want.
Yeah basically that
kk
Uncanny is a must pick then if you have the bleed talent then grab merciless killer
If not uuuuh
I don't remember rn
MK's not worth it on vet
you have to path to serrated blade, which is generally not something most builds will do
If you must, just tell us what looks good to you and we'll just tell you if t's good.
It also doesn't do enough. Needs to be buffed with like twice the value to feel good.
uncanny + riposte/flesh tearer/lacerate/precog are pretty standard
60% is pretty good tbf
precision strikes is only 30%
but it's hard to fit serrated onto most builsd
Considering how taxing to really run it.
Or does enough
uncanny + lacerate/lacerate/lacerate/lacerate/ are pretty standard
@tame lodge fixed it for you
It's just the cost on talent tree that makes it not great to run
I'm getting so used to playing Arbites that I saw several around me with their dogs and thought, "Where's my dog? I want to pet him," before looking around, not seeing him, then remembering I'm on Vet atm
Don't ye stare at me like that Karien
Dog-petting is a desire engrained in all mankind
Loner desperately needs a dog
And perhaps Cutthroat, too
Someone seems to wanna pat the poxhound over there.
Look, Loner needs friends they can trust. Puppos can always be trusted... unless food.
too used to playing helbore iv
so basically better for non havoc
I see
I'll take that in mind when playing aurics
Bro we just lost and then the guy left and the bot revived the last guy
3 dead last downed
someone leaves, bot spawns, revives downed guy???
I II V E G on ice map yeee lesgo
so notice how it doesnt say anything about ranged or weakspot kills
u can get 10 stacks and then kill in meele
doesnt take that long
granade build on no ammo pickups should do the trick
Take the camouflage node and crouch the whole time lol
and kraks are pretty fun anyways so its no that bad
Mag dump hordes with recon like the vet you were meant to be
I think path recommends tax axe for havoc 40 when you’re using bolter
how many was that one again?
feels like 5 million with how worthless krak grenades are
It is useful, but too specialized.
the problem is that anything but bulwarks/crushers will be killed by your teammates before they explode
I think they're both too specialized and not useful personally
the literal only enemy type I think they have use for is if there is more than 3 bulwarks
Krak can't kill bulwark in H35+...
wdm my single target anti armor grenade cant kill that singular armored enemy 
bruh
I only keep it on for boss fighting build. Hate it or whatever, but deleting Havoc bosses quickly is a qol.
Especially the hardened monstrosity...
But kraks barely tickle H40 bosses?
If it barely tickles, then whatever you are using it not that much better.
The Helbore IV literally does more dmg per shot than a Krak Grenade for boss killing
I'm pretty sure one PS stab does more damage lol
which hellbore do you use?
IV
mk iiia, but that's because I like armourbane on it
kraks don't do good boss damage tho is the thing
2400 base damage
2-3 swings from the usual good boss damage melee outdoes them
Helbore casually hit 10k plus before team buffs/debuffs
In a vacuum yes. When it gets debuffed, it does numbers.
if crit yeah but it crits most of the time so i guess thats no a real point
Im talking about hellbore ^
not really
You need to run hotshot 1 to cleave
My friend gave me a really cool looking build but it lacks a keystone, that is possible right? To not have a keystone but have a great build?
yes
yeah thas pretty standard on vet
Yes
Ty
All the vet keystones have very subtle effects
well no they don't
sometimes I see hellbore killing to enemeis at the same time when they are relly close together
they're just all so far down and such a pain in the ass to build for that it can easily be not worth it
when it means missing essential talents outside of them
well if you're good at tagging that's a pretty impactful one IMO. weap spec induces a more fun playstyle. I almost always take one
if you go with hotshot u can kinda clear a horde but its more of a precision weapon since u need to hit weakspots anyway
3 cleave base
Same as bolter
Agripina Braced Autogun
I am discheesed
Very discheesed
Silo Cluster, Ogryn got hurled over an edge, another ran off and died, another woke a Daemonhost, then left before it could kill him and depart, which meant it then aggroed onto me
Discheesure.
that has been my experience lately
idk if the game is harder or the players worse, but it has been way more difficult to finish missions these days
game can be harder on aurics
aurics can be high intensity now
kinda goes hard
maybe that's the case
before the patch Auric was a chill difficulty to play for fun
I really hate how the campaign missions are basically low intensity now
I don't understand why ppl took long on the krak penance
because kraks are the worst blitz in the game
and usually only kill 1 or 2 things per throw
Me when I the brain burst
brain burst has kinetic flayer node
that makes it the 2nd worst blitz in the game
kraks have no such luck
Kraks can kill bulwarks for free which makes them ok
They kill bulwarks and do boss damage
do you stand by that
I sometimes find use with Brain Burst when using flame staff and my team mates are playing with their monitors turned off
never found a use for frags personally
shredders are arguably the best blitz in the game
enormous AoE and bleed damage
combine with out for blood for instant full toughness if thrown at trash
smokes are also good
noticably better in havoc
I usually take them over frags in havoc because their utility is extremely valuable
This tells me you hardly play vet lol
Because frags have been the vet meta for quite some time
i just never thought they do something i'm looking for
waveclear is incredibly whatever and kraks deal with threatening targets
It’s vets only reliable source of infinite cleave, and surprise surprise it’s very fucking good lol
the threatening targets get dealt with easier with any of the good Vet guns
Shreds mixed hordes
or the good vet melees
usually when someone is down, the thing that keeps you from reviving them isn't exactly trash, but rather something more sizable
Frags have strong stagger
if you mean Crushers they do get staggered
but also helps you kill them since the bleed is quite sizeable
Krak is good if you're low level vet with shit weapons and ogryns are the bane of your existence
true
I like to give credit to things that help new players go through the initial struggles of the game
I never came around with the las pistol, it feels awful compared to the bistol or Revolver, which I kind of consider run and gun weapons
these do not fill the same niche
not really anyway
Yeah
I just like the feeling of clicking on Elites' and Specialists' heads and having a bajillion rounds
idk about niches, they are just guns I use with WS
and the reload node
that's my abstract categorization of them
Laspistol is basically lasgun but smaller
You want to spam-fire into weakspots with it instead of making single shot
yeah
best weapon to pair with boltgun? i'm using the power sword but i feel like i might need something quicker.
also, since it's so slow, i should mainly prioritize elites yeah? it's a weird adjustment not killing shooters at range since i'm trying to conserve ammo. am i doing it right?
not a fan of that (the laspistol gameplay)
Rashad
Heavy Sword
Chainsword
i don't really like the chainsword but i'll give heavy sword a shot once i finish power sword mastery
Depents on your build, but i'd sat knife
It's very safe and simple weapon
And will compensate lack of mobility with bolter
But it requires a ton of points investment
And its horde clear isn't the best
Which is what bolter needs most
no literally just poxxers
even bruisers feel pretty insurmountable with chainsword
Depends, really
On blessings
Imo the only thing you need is serrased blade to not take lacerate
Serrated blade 🥀
You forgot the four bottom right points and the stam regen node, that's at least 5
Yep, it's very good
For this
Mercy killer is basically always active
Absolutely worhths it
Expecially if you are goung right side build
Increasing a situational fraction of your damage by a further fraction is not worth it no
Becuse you don't have other option to ramp damage
You can take lacerate and rending
Why would you be going right side with bolter lmao?
But it will have lower damage
Because weapon spec
If you go weapon spec you want agile engagement(If you agree to discard survivalist)
And if you go agile engagement - serrated blade is nearby
Weapon spec on bolter???
Brotha what
And yes serrated blade is nearby but that doesn't mean u have to take it
Basically you're wasting a point and a blessing to do some mediocre extra damage
Yeah
I mean, the same reason people are using thsi shit with plasma
To cheese reload
Plasma is because the pullout isn't 3 business days.
Mediocre? Bruh
You are killing crushers with it
That's the uncanny doing the work, and again with bolter you just want horde clear
I know
Same tight timing as weapon spec
Nah, bro, it's uncanny AND mercy killer
I run uncanny with lacerate for grenade build
Alond it's worse than mercy killer
Esp with something like this
I don't remember my build exactly
I remember having shout veriant as well
Bro taking duck and dive 💀
What's your problem with this talent?
It's not needed unless you're running deadshot
It's a deadshot onslaught meme only thing.
Also why are you taking the MK + serrated combo instead of just superiority complex
Bruh it's perma-sprinting
Whe everything shoots you at maelstarms
Or perma-blocking
It's fine
Because you don't need it?
You are doing good with all elites except ogryns
Bro it's just better than MK though
And you already have talent for ogryns
You realised I don't even need that to outrun hordes doing an emergency zealot style speedrun, right?
Dude it hitting weakspots is inconsistent for you... i dunno
I doubt this is talent's problem
Okay, so?
Hm, mindign dude said he's running bolter - it;s possible to drop for the emperor for extra supression talent
Team potato'd and I ended up speedrunning a third of Enclavum on vet. You don't need it. Take more useful stuff.
we need a new gun that can have stripped down + hit and run but that also innately allows you to fire while sprinting
Bro if we're doing character attacks you already said:
- to pair bolter with knife (https://discordapp.com/channels/727074276724965407/1046912126746374274/1396292676441083984)
- advocated for serrated + MK (https://discordapp.com/channels/727074276724965407/1046912126746374274/1396294494953017455)
- acted like maelstrom is crazy darktide difficulty
- think duck and dive is good (https://discordapp.com/channels/727074276724965407/1046912126746374274/1396297722583191564)
- dont think superiority complex is good (https://discordapp.com/channels/727074276724965407/1046912126746374274/1396297952070340608)
Path would have a field day with all that
Are you seriously telling people bad info?
Also you'd rather choose CQKZ over superiority complex too
Sure, For the Emperor isn't high up, but it's between that or Born Leader. Suppression is just pointless.
Bruh, you have made up half of this.
And some maelstrorms are bullshit atm
Bruh, dude, i've tried half of his shit
It ain't working
The issue is fucking herd opinion
Are aren't knowing what is good
Maybe it's not a talent point issue then 💀
More like any real vet main is just... why is that guy spreading bad info or his tastes but still not mentioning is just what he likes and absolutely not meta or good?
And the funniest shit of this all is that i've created some fucking build at 4 am as quckin fucking example
Bro, i've seen what makes you cherr
Did I make it up lol? I I linked the messages for proof
Or, to be presice, i've seen what you consdider OP and meta
We can tell lol
I play grenadiers.
Which is shit that won't even get you aout of damnation, set aside aurics or havocs
I know path hates my builds because I sacrifice things to take field improv.
I remember you guys bullshitting me about how OP plasma is
And weapon spec plasma builds
We did say plasma is good and it is.
Because of these your boos mean nothing
Plasma WS is a more of a funni thing one can do, but the meta with it is FT.
I gonna go sleep for now
Oh also let's not forget he advocated for bolter + WS (https://discordapp.com/channels/727074276724965407/1046912126746374274/1396296096229097604)
Sighs
If people are bullets
You are either liar
Or dum-dum
Shiver me timbers
Goodnight
maybe he means the bistol
I think for sanity, treat like Music 2.0. and not bother.
Like, if my build is that bad, I'm not sure what the dook is he reccomending.
Most of you know my 'nade builds.
Says I made stuff up
Gets proven wrong
Refuses to elaborate
Leaves
Pardon me, can't recall: do grenade kills count as ranged kills?
They are just compromises between melee, 'nades and always grabbing Field Improv. Might run born leader to make sure team goes gold on a shout.
more like never grabbing field improv
worlds most mediocre talent
Is whatever you have out when it blows.
I like field improv it makes my team mates happy
At least in consideration to WS stacks.
How about for Melk contracts?
Should the same logic apply?
Never tested tbh. I blitz those too quickly or cba lul.
A really strong one. Gib oggy 2 more nukes.
Heh.
Like I said, ppl can drop it and born leader to get something else... but I get by with both of them on anyway.
i assume hotshot is still bugged
or whatever that headshot cleave blessing is on helbore
The cleave is still best using lvl 1 and works on melee, yes.
I kind of wish that the support nodes were a bit stronger but I already ranted about it so much
Stronger or works on yourself as well.
Because who would say no to +15% of the toughness you gain?
Same for covering fire being renamed and just buffing everyone including yourself for a point blank shot.
I will totally do a commissar to proc it.
yeah it seems that fs wanted us to have that option
but they were stingy with it
like they always are with vet
Mhm.
maybe in the rework
Yeah, maybe.
Sighs.
I know I'm not that good at the game but it's mostly hand eye coordination and reflexes... so physical issues.
I just panic and let it carry me.
man that whole earlier conversation was a hell of a read (i just wanned to say that)
also field improv is peak
the other day I jumped down the stairs on the carnival map, the ones that have a bit of a dead end alleyway under it, to dodge a bomber. I thought I was so smart then I got crushed by a wall of bulwarks and maulers with nowhere to run or dodge :)
evli bulwark spam per usual
Creative is 2 trappers and 15 bombers.
Do not ask.
Bulwark Trapper line up where the trapper is completely hidden by the shield and protected by it
Yes, both farts and fire.
just be Arby and Oggy and walk through it all :)
Arby can even fight inside the fart np
I know. I did a meme arby build you wonder why.... 15% per sec toughness regen and rebreather...
eh just combine all 3 and u have a completely normal day on atoma prime
You hit anything or doggo be doggo and lul.
surely FS will consult GW and realize the rebreather is standard equipmant for the Astra Militarum and Vets will get it as well!
for sure buddy
And still nobody will take it
how am i suppose to last my 15h deployment when im getting gassed
😭
id like to die after the designated 15h thank you very much
Character with only one mask has a Rebreather talent
Just don't breath it? its like that easy
This induced a physical reaction
Please tell me this is not the shovel you are running
crusher die 2 special strong attack

dead shot
this is gaurdsman build
it is better at being an Infantry Lasgun than the Infantry Lasgun
Krieg are guardsman too
Vastroyans are also guardsmen
Guardsman RP'ers being punished by Inflas being a terrible weapon is amazing
ye
Hi
It just feels bad to use
Commissar LARPers with Bistol and Chainswords
and thay look sick
after burn nerf
On top of not being great in the first place
💀
The one with the cash trenchcoat?
all lasgun needs buff
mid

Rejected, knoife and bistol.
Its been one of the best havoc weapons since havoc existed
that could be a bit too much
what about draw speed
And performs well in normal content
helbore draw speed fine?
that was buffed
.66 seconds with One Motion
it is smooth as butter with One Motion
good to look but bad to use
And you can draw cancel by reloading as soon as you draw then sprint canceling it
i do powersword insted (not helping my case)
I mean
hope power sword dodge do more better
It is an acquired taste
real
Knoife+bistol.
Powersword+bistol
powersword bistol is kino
i cannot play knife on any class just dont like it
Knoife on all, where knoife on lexlexlex?
just give him all the vet weapons and call him vet 2.0
Lore reasons

It's also why ogryns can't have shit
remove ILasgun recoil
It was dropped during development
Fun>>>Lore.
fr
true we are in the Inquisition and our gear is scavenged anyways so just give us stuff
on vacation, just like they are
You think I don't know? They hate fan stuff since ppl do what they want.
People in work hell capitalist countries when they see countries that care about their people and provide generous breaks from work
i just want some news
I love forgetting entire parts of sentences its becoming way too normal
or what they doing now
Why reeeeeeeeeeee at no hellguns.
their brand image would be a lot better if this game wasn't filled to the brim with FOMO, expensive-ass aquilas, missing commisary items, servers that are constantly communicating with fatshark backend,
devs probably schedule family vacations and shit, let em live a little
comunism hell too
None of those are their fault though
Heck, expensive is fine since actually optional, just make sure the service is actually good.
yeah i want my hellgun and the melta
the skins thing is definitely GW's fault. I am told that the skins that are already in-game but fatshark refuses to add to the shop (e.g., red arbites trench coat, crucis nightshade camo for the new weapons, artstation armors, etc.), they have to go through some sort of approval process by GW.
Is that accurate? Or is there another explanation of why they're not added
GW is extremely throughout with that shit
Is why they took away the robo eyes and such.
hope frag bomb do more good damage
guys its a giant reference to 40k where everything need to go through administratum
expolod damage is bad
GW notices the accident, it can get bad since unapproved.
all I want from FS is space dwarves
why GW accepted Ilasgun recoil
Why they took it, had to ask about it, then readd.
most likely but probably also because it was faulty implementation, emperor knows what goes under the hood with cosmetics
Because that's legimate, ppl did that cos they like the feel of it in canon.
With how they did the human classes, the most is clipping issues imo.
They reused everything under the clothes.
Is why my lexlexlex looks like my psyker. XD
I think they released a post saying that arby will be able to get the cosmetics right? I bet they just had to go through it and see if it was properly implemented and approved by GW
Nahhh no way it was GW's fault. Because arbites come with augmetics on the tabletop models
they re-implemented the augmetic eyes back in the previous patch
the bionic eye is back tho
well maby
They already returned it to the lexlexlex.
we all know how GW is with thier IP
Yes, but will STILL require GW to approve it on them.
I read somewhere that GW got on their business over a cape decal or some shit like that, a small little emblem in an armor
made their change or remove
shit like that
that's how much they micromanage their IP
sure whatever
man i wanned a 40k tattoo. GW is gonna take my hand away
This is GW, they get serious. Is safer to retract, ask, and return if is approved.
i trust your speculation and agree with everything
GW has rejected stuff before. They are as heavy handed as the actual Imperium in things.
the other day one of my friends that got into W40k recently found out about the Wacraft/Starcraft thing, and it is always amazing viewing that whole shitshow through the eyes of someone new
not to excuse GW's shit but that stuff is hilariously fucked
lots of good opportunities, lots of big media projects
yeah
Heh. It could be big but newp.
More, if you can pay... you can use to their discretion.
Well Im not gonna defend GW. Just saying what i have noticed
They still hate fanmade stuff, even when it bloody is the reason ppl get into it.
Thats why we dont have nice things
They want people to pay to use their IP for stuff.
best u can do is lore videos
everything else just goes
like thay did with astartes
Yep. You wanna make things? $$$
I kinda feel like if they can push their weight more, they might.
with the rising popularity of the franchise they probably will
what's good with the recon mk VIc?
Perks, weapons, blessing, talents?
I think it is all Dum Dum and Infernus, no?
i'm looking at the VIc and it looks like a straight downgrade from the mk XIV
less ammo, less damage
what am i missing
Headhunter infernus is also good right?
XIV is the worst mark overall
bath man would know

Funniest bit is first edition was a mixed bag of parodies.
thats kinda how it was
But now they get mad if ppl use the IP for that.
i came to 40k through fantasy there its even more like that
I know. Heh, throw all the popular stuff in.
ty ty, makes much more sense
Basically, the brown mark does 1.5x damage for 2x ammo.
And in havoc, it basically also is single target.
So the cleave you could do is just rubbish.
Man I feel like, Helbore weight of fire could be so much better if it lasted long enough to reload before losing stacks

Nah what it means is that for the short skullcrusher damage windows that u can get in havoc, power sword VI hits harder
their first Special Character in the whole series was just a evil Gandalf clone so yeah
What the XIV is the best mark wth
You can Deadshot it for infinite ammo
Thus... IDK why they get mad about fanstuff that is completely free.
there you go, as if you needed more evidence that XIV is the worst mark lol
I can understand chasing stuff under a paywall or so...
Mk XII and Vlc could never
yeah plus it has funny cleave values
deadsh🤮t
Look, some ppl just wanna have fun on malice.
and, y'know, in h40
I was told I can’t have fun in havoc 40……
confirmed impossible to have fun
Nu fun, only srsbsn.
i swear mk3 exterm players are as ammo hungry as rumblergryns
that's 28 ammo tins taken
Duckbill or sniopah shottie?
Though, I forgetti it existi.
But I don't even shoot everything on my recon.
oh wait
Unless it's EVERY BOSS.
this guy is using the mk8
that's honestly even worse lol
he must've been firing into poxxers the entire match to only get 70k melee damage
I dunno. I use mine like funni revolver.
To be fair, thing pierces.
I know. I shoot through a few walkers to hit trappers.
But it's fun using the Arbites shock maul in melee.
arby bolter spammers are worse
a singular dog that i have already pushed and im about to kill? BETTER BOLTER HIPFIRE SPAM THAT
Plasma Gun is so disappointing.
All this cool functionality and several blessings built around the idea of maintaining certain heat threshholds and building value out of charged shots and none of them fucking matter lmao
Just left click bro
that's any bolter shitter tbh
Bolter whatever do that, then spam I need ammo constantly.
Boltgun for mutant killing 
4 bistol shots.
Rejected, I shoot, it runs towards target and blep. Funni.
wRong answer, I'm afraid 
Anyone got a build with exec stance?
I really want to use krak nades, agripinaa shotgun and exec stance
But not sure how to do it best
what’s the BAG dump stat?
Mobility.
Unless you don't care about the kick.
agri or graia
they really benefit from being run with exec stance tho
thx
on your toes or .25 stamina regen delay 
i think i made a pretty scuffed build but i'm gonna hope it works out
i may be stupid
(nothing below weapons specialist)
running recon las and power sword 
id drop these two for some nodes along the left side
but muh stam regen 😭
i only took close quarters to get that because it seemed preferable to duck and dive
Sometimes I feel the Veteran suffers for being designed as the sniper class, which implies poor mobility and durability. Is it still full damage while sprinting?
drop these for longshot and exhilarating takedown?
hm if i got exhil takedown i'd be dummy stacked on toughness regen
i'll try it out thanks
longshot is worthles
the one on the left side that gives weak spot damage is pretty important
i know this isn't a very good show of skill
but damn did i just carry three veterans into another game of heresy they shouldn't have made it
the Bolt Pistol is very good though
Not of utmost ammo efficacy
but damn does it just
pop
you said left side and the only ones i can get on the left side are those two (and volley adept)
oh i'm a dumbass
i did say that i may be stupid
yes
these nodes 
whats the veteran meta these days
shout
what mode
grab essential nodes
not much else i can drop
auric i guess? im to scared to havoc
power sword + revolver
i often don't end up having points for these nodes lol
dang the revolver
same
power sword + helbore
this is the dumb stupid build now
precision strikes is good, ammo is basically a tax node in auric oftentimes tbh, and then sup complex is good. but they're not vital like the center tree and right tree are on many builsd
center tree is just straight up mandatory on every build
right tree is important if you plan on meleeing
that's where i'm at right now
i love power sword
so weapons specialist seemed like it would work well with what i'm doing
i do kinda want superiority complex though so i might drop a couple more
you can drop COD and CK in the middle top
It's always the frame 1 revolver shots 
yeah i was just thinking that
you really only need to pick between COD/CK or OM/O4B
yeahhh
I hate the power sword and every time I get tempted to run it again I rediscover why I hate it 
PS takes some adjusting to
i felt the same way at first but now i'm digging it
I do fine with it it just feels like ass to play
just gotta get the combos in
it's just that good
I'm learning helbore tho
i've been doing h1 h2 then l3 for hordes because im simpleminded
even with weapon spec its dodges are horrendous
yeah it has a pretty rough dodge profile
learning helbore IV + power sword with weapon spec
makes up for how sick it is
it's not as bad as I thought
helbore prob best off with mmf or focus
mmf for sure on helbore
and MF's design is horrendous
once you lock in to using iron sights you should definitely be hitting weak spots more often than not
i've come around MMF a bit on certain builds
because tunnel vision + CAB is very funny
i think if i was using it on anything else i'd hate it tbh
I just throw 1 point into WS for how front loaded it is
same that's what i'm doing
share build?
I used WS before the buff with the Helbore because of a random guide I saw on the website. You had like 2s to aim and shoot lmao
nowadays it is probably way more comfortable
it's literally same build as plasma but swap 1 red node to shock trooper
oh lol
helbore IV dmg is just good off the bat
u don't need to spec a lot of things for it to do 1 taps well
I run maniac unyielding on it now
finished both chainswords' charts
veteran to scary for me im going back to afk bonk
is the infantry lasgun actually worth it on high diff or what
i think people use recons more so if u wanna las
dam
the arbities class helped me actually learn the game after so long so now im willing to try my other 4 classes after so long, and i feel like im in multiple noob traps in all 4 classes lol
it's ok, can use multiple buffs
IMO the biggest problem with infantry lasguns is that they're semi auto
i went and got a full auto mod that lets you hold down the mouse, game changer IMO
I use it too
has some kick to it though but its wierd because its graphical rather than moving the curser
I think the only weapons it's useful on are the staffs and infantry lasgun
you play arbites with castigator
so is the revolver
whats the problem
i like the pew
revolver fires 6 devastating shots
but either way i do like the revolver too
infantry lasguns got 40+ rounds and I gotta mash that shit 10 times a second
recon has strong crit potential, full auto, massive magazine
you couldve said just strong crit potential and i'd get it lol
EHM, you mean. Lone wulf Casti with wallhaxx.
hey this build is super fun
which build
precision strikes and superiority complex really tied it together
this one i made that's probably sub-optimal and shitty
did well though, just did auric twins
what are you conflicted on?
@tall torrent Does opening salvo just work on every shot of the infantry lasgun?
ngl damn near everything, but especially melee choices
conflicted because you have a lot you want to use
or conflicted because a lot seem bad
the former
im running into what made me burn out of darktide: i suck at choosing stuff
are you looking for just fun weapons or the meta weapons
either
Fun AND good
id be down for either extreme or a mix of both
anyway emperor's gift just swooped in and gave me a near perfect chainsword
all 80 except for 60 pen
oh i was just trying that, but what put me off is it is so slow to swing
though that mgiht be the mark xii
i cant have the mk iv
yeah if you can get to the mk4 that one is the good one
super easy to use
heavy attack for horde clear, light attack to saw into single targets
If you want the meta options you have the Combat axe, dueling sword and Power sword
POWER SWORD?
Personally I would recommend the dueling sword since it's the easiest to use
THE POWER SWORD?
ye
i thought that was a noob trap because its only vanguard attacks
nah, it's good
axe i guess makes sense, though im rusty on what kind of axes
combat axe is a meta option
ok i mixed it up with the tac axe
chain axe is fun
only downside about combat axe is you really need a "perfect" one
60 in mobility 80 everything else
i mean that's not hard
not hard to find one, just need to wait for the shop a few times
mk3 is the meta one
what's hard is empowering it
WELL
if you are resource poor
space sicne i lack image perms allow me to dm you
which can happen quite quickly if you are empowering a lot of stuff
i wasted much of my diamantine 😔
i got a lil present from papa brunt :3
and i mixed finesse with mobility FU
also if you get one that's like
starting at very low mobility
it can feel super shitty to use
you will feel like a slug when dodging
kinda why I recommend the dueling sword if you just need an easy to use, strong weapon
and the one i have has the exact combo i want on the axe lol
the one power sword i got has 80s except in cleave
whats the dump stat on the dueling sword
mine has 60 on mobility, 80 everything else
mobility
no wait
it's like the furthest thing from a noob trap lol
eh I mean low mobility dueling sword is still fine
dueling sword it is lmao
which variant
i have an 80s with 60 mobility recon
Why is onslaught meme for recon lasgun out of curiosity
because it's hard to get to on the talent tree
ah
anyway anyway
there's no mk3 duelling sword
