why does the popo get 4 assault anti boss anti mob anti rager grenades

#

and vet gets... a smoke bomb

calm shard
#

that smoke grenade is very good

spark helm
#

Smoke grenade gud

calm shard
#

genuinely better psyker bubble that you can get 4 of

spark helm
#

:> (serious)

tall torrent
#

smoke is ~3 buffs away from being really good

calm shard
#

I already use them all the time in havoc when I'm not using exe

signal garden
#

at the very least let us see shit in the smoke/see through it

spark helm
#

does 40k do stupid shit with like healing smoke or something?

signal garden
#

it does in mortis trials

calm shard
spark helm
#

Or go into it myself

signal garden
#

ugh

spark helm
#

And yknow, hit ping

long dove
#

new special ability, You press F and a volley of lasgun fire appears from offscreen and blankets the area. No it doesn't make sense, fuck you

signal garden
#

im still traumatized by me sthrowing a smoke nade down

#

and my teammate getting sniperd through it

tall torrent
#

think that's been fixed

spark helm
#

Yeh

calm shard
spark helm
#

It's been a while but when that was happening could you see the laser?

tall torrent
spark helm
#

Like if you were in it.

barren cave
#

Anyone know the dump Stat on shredder auto pistol

signal garden
#

yeah i could see the laser through the smoke

spark helm
#

Can you see the flash through it?

signal garden
#

it slowly moved onto my homie and turned my homie into someone who needed to picked up in the next room

#

nope

hollow ibex
signal garden
#

at least back then like 2 months ago

barren cave
#

Cool

signal garden
#

then i was like "im good dog"

spark helm
#

Shredder autopistol > all.

signal garden
#

back to shredders and krak

sly orchid
tall torrent
#

at least smoke not as buggy as arb dog

#

dog is the single most buggy entity this game has seen yet

signal garden
#

im so sick and tired of all the suppression veteran has

#

as if the number one threat to vet isnt annoying ass infested poxwalkers

long dove
#

Anyone get the moments where DT just has sudden drops in FPS and just chugs for no reason unless you restart the client?

signal garden
#

DT has severe memory loss issues

sly orchid
tall torrent
long dove
signal garden
#

so yeah every 3-4 hours of continuous play you have to restart

tall torrent
# sly orchid ngl i havent notice black magic with the dog

dog was so bugged where if u swapped from a dog-having loadout to lone wolf you immediately crash your game

Then when u load back in, you delete the lone wolf class, you crash again

Then u load back in, click on your original loadout, and it crashes again

Then u load back in and remake your build from scratch

#

yea ik this because I experienced this multiple times

tame lodge
signal garden
#

what in the fatshark could cause those crashes

tall torrent
#

very peak codeproofing fatshark

#

also the +450% bleed dmg from bug

tame lodge
#

Couldn't play with a vet on the team

swedish coding, eternally a mystery, even to the coders themselves

It's funnier/worse when you remember that Chubbyguppy helped design the engine used in this game

#

I need to know if the Lucius is any good or if I’m stupid for excessively using it as a sniper

sly orchid
#

smoke threat reduction?

void dragon
#

enemies in smoke take increased impact seems like an interesting path

tall torrent
tame lodge
#

Competing with Plasma

long dove
#

Lucius is Helbore right?

tall torrent
#

4 people in a smoke
congratulations none of yall will benefit from threat reduction

tame lodge

#

btw, what's up with the C.shotguns? were they buffed? they feel around the same of bad

cloud rock
tall torrent
cloud rock
sly orchid
#

ive played shroudfield plenty

tall torrent
sly orchid
#

not camo vet tho

tall torrent
#

it makes u a lower priority target for enemies, compared to ur teammates

cloud rock
long dove
#

and since when is Helbore a tope weapon?

tall torrent
#

it interacts with the slot system

tall torrent
#

lol

calm shard
#

it was already pretty damn good before that buff

sly orchid
#

got buffed and is now real good

tame lodge
calm shard
#

just annoying to use

tall torrent
#

before then it had some pretty big dealbreaker issues

tame lodge
#

(it got buffed recently)

long dove
#

really? Cause of the changes to zoom and pull out?

signal garden
#

it had big dealbreaker issues balanced out by it being a wildly pwoerful melee weapon

#

like, it had triple its current attack speed

#

but the same power, not at all unlike kerillian's javelin

void dragon
#

Helbore's swap speed is insane good nowadays, that alone is a MASSIVE buff

tall torrent
void dragon
#

and the gun now has better time hitting headshots

signal garden
#

irnically it has a harder time hitting headshots in melee

tame lodge
signal garden
#

used to be you could aim in the geenral direction of something and stabbing it and it would be a headshot

cloud rock
tall torrent
#

with that said it's still a little off from being perfect

void dragon
signal garden
#

hey a charged shot has decent hipfire accuracy

past stratus
#

don't talk about my baby like that I loved the Helbore before the buffs 😠

tall torrent
#

if it had good sights and like 15~20% faster charge speed I think it'd be perfect

signal garden
#

you can literally see the reticle tighten as you charge

void dragon
#

i actually land hipfire headshots sometimes

tall torrent
#

also vet needs better dmg talents

signal garden
#

so the base weapon sights arent bad

sly orchid
tall torrent
#

helbore currently misses some key breakpoints by 1 dmg

signal garden
#

the vostrayan pattern sights are abysmal

void dragon
#

vet needs new perk tree

tall torrent
#

yes 1 dmg lol

signal garden
#

its literally pay to suck

tall torrent
#

1399 maniac headshot

1 dmg off

void dragon
long dove
#

Hmm I guess I should try out my helbore again

signal garden
#

thanks for 5% ranged damage nodes

#

so based

long dove
#

exec stance not the play though right?

tall torrent
#

the 5% ranged dmg node needs to both be 10%

sly orchid
#

how the vet rework will feel

tall torrent
#

and the 5% melee dmg node needs to be 10% as well

#

I sent a bunch of wild ideas to playtester

compact oracle
past stratus
#

I think I can one shot almost everything with the Helborne currently on Auric at least since I don't have the mod for the psykhanium. 2 shot Crushers with FT

signal garden
#

way less safe

void dragon
#

@tall torrent does the combat shotguns got real buffs in last patch or they got scammed with spagetti code? they dont feel better so far i have tried them

tall torrent
signal garden
#

at least with ogryn you can just fire away and generate TGH

calm shard
tall torrent
#

I sent them like 4 pages of just talent changes and new stuff

calm shard
#

You can't really carry with it

long dove
#

yeah I know Exec is less safe but sometimes I wanna have some variety I guess

signal garden
#

vet is pressing F to fiddle around and think twice about swapping back to melee

tall torrent
signal garden
#

nuncio aquilla

sly orchid
#

you said playtester singular

tall torrent
sly orchid
#

or did you send it to multiple?

tall torrent

and arthiio

sly orchid

ahaaaaaaaa

tall torrent
#

tho arthiio I think less active rn

signal garden
#

agripina was always pretty slick'

#

kantrael was always underrated

fight me

tall torrent

I didn't send to cole cuz i'm pretty sure cole will say "ur crazy for this" x30

void dragon
tall torrent
#

u gotta realize

sly orchid
#

You could just explain your changes

tall torrent
#

I'm significantly more radical on the "buff thing" side

compact oracle
#

changing peoples minds doesnt happen on the internet

#

and you wont change my mind about this

void dragon
signal garden
#

fire shotgun

compact oracle
#

it was originally kantrael

sly orchid
#

Cole is pret receptive to changes

compact oracle
#

but its now accatran

signal garden
#

and long range shotgun

#

idk the actual names

long dove
#

a shotgun build I have running +6 Stam and deadshot is surprisingly fun

compact oracle
#

they changed a bunch of the names a while back for... reasons

signal garden
#

i just assume its agri for long range, kantrael for fire, i could be wrong on fire

compact oracle
#

agri is great for bossing

signal garden
#

regardless both are pretty good

compact oracle
#

but ive been too busy using other stuff

signal garden
#

the fire one is great for bossing

void dragon
#

agri headshot do feels good

signal garden
#

more DPS than the exterminator

compact oracle
#

someone did the math im sure

#

somewhere

tall torrent
signal garden
#

agripinaa just happens to be able to perform at long range

sly orchid
#

Unless its quite situational

tall torrent
sly orchid
#

I can see why your views are quite radical

signal garden
#

i cant imagine playing beetus just to equip a combat shotty

narrow frost
#

whuh?

past stratus
tall torrent
#

ok 50%

#

close enough

compact oracle
signal garden
#

best sound is the elephant gun

#

too bad the elephant gun has the worst damage per bullet of all 3 shotgun types

#

the fuck fatshark

long dove
#

Exec stance with infantry Autogun is pretty fun

tall torrent
# sly orchid I can see why your views are quite radical

also one of the designed build synergy was smoke giving inf stamina with 0 stam cost while u stand inside smoke
which gives inf deadshot uptime
and deadshot is reworked to only cost stam on shot fired, not over time
plus the talents that can get u like innately 35~50% ranged crit chance (without deadshot or blessings)
the result is like, if u stand inside smoke and have deadshot u can casually have like 70%+ crit chance for ur gun, while having 0 stam cost

sly orchid
#

i did like your idea that vet could generate stims

tall torrent
long dove
past stratus
#

Surgical should be a vet talent

#

you're good at shooting, you should do more shooty damage when you aim

compact oracle
signal garden
#

Vet should have the zealot talent that grants recoil and spread reduction on dodge

long dove
#

or stealing shit

tall torrent
# sly orchid https://tenor.com/view/batman-thinking-gif-18107621495886085895

the idea is that u can avg at like 20~30% extra atk speed if u rly spec into melee

trench fighter moved up into top side to be more accessible but is melee only
comp urge is reworked into cumulative RNG and boosts melee atk speed
arch militant is new, deeper down the tree but improves both melee and ranged atk speed
weapon spec nerfed from 15% to 10% melee atk speed but subnode gets u 10% so if u invest hard u can get 20%

did you tell them to scrap infiltrate and exec stance and give us Disengage from Ranger Veteran, path?

#

😌

past stratus
#

wtf

😔

compact oracle
tall torrent
#

I can actually send u that document lol

past stratus
#

I thought you were on our side...

tall torrent
#

I don't mind

signal garden
#

Yeah remove smoke nade and infiltrate and combine it into one thing

#

Give vet shredder nade, krak nade, and melta bomb

past stratus
#

yeah sure send me the doc

signal garden
#

Combine infiltrate and exe stance to be like kruber

#

Stealth into yuge range damage

sly orchid
#

fatshark isnt going to do that

signal garden
#

Do we recall why FS nerfed huntsman kruber

#

I dont

strange crow
past stratus
#

stealth needs to be group wide to work in this game imo, the Disengage bomb is perfect because of that

signal garden
#

I feel like the best potential weapon right now for zealot would be helbore

#

Since only the helbore can realistically stab a boss in its weak spot from behind it

tall torrent
#

here

calm shard
#

hell yeah 200 toughness again

#

poggers

tall torrent
#

actually this

calm shard
#

shit

tall torrent
#

it's the same

signal garden
#

And TGH from dodge and dodge on sprint are a blast

tall torrent
#

just specified what base stats are changed

sly orchid
#

path what were gonna do

#

is remove all grey nodes

tall torrent
signal garden
#

Or just do what arbites does, unavoidable +50 tgh

tame lodge
calm shard
#

tremendous

tall torrent
#

this is NOTHING compared to the stuff at the bottom

tall torrent
signal garden
#

All of this is fair and balanced I'm assuming because Arby's has a shield

tame lodge
#

80 dr vs ranged on ranged/melee weakspot

#

Isn't that a bit

#

Face tanky

sly orchid
tall torrent
#

dats

#

kinda the point

sly orchid
#

i think its a bit overtuned

tall torrent
#

I overshot a lot of things

sly orchid
#

good ideas but some of em err

#

like 6% max toughness per kill

tame lodge
sly orchid
#

vet is a monster in melee then

tall torrent
#

also remember that this does not include talent structure

#

I wasn't told to remake structure

signal garden
#

Wat

tall torrent
#

if I did structure I think some of ur evaluations might change

calm shard
signal garden
#

So the tax will stay and we would just be stat machines?

sly orchid
tall torrent
calm shard
#

assumedly the majority of the shitty tax nodes were replaced by real talents

#

with real effects

tall torrent
#

I literally wrote out what the new grey nodes are

#

at the start

calm shard
#

you think I can read?

tall torrent
#

GREY TALENT NODES
+5% total crit chance (×1)
+1 stamina (×1)
+10% ranged damage (×2)
+10% melee damage (×2)
+5% movement speed (×1)

#

no defense grey nodes

sly orchid
#

still think grey nodes should be gone like arbites

calm shard
calm shard
sly orchid
#

arbites has only 2 stat nodes

calm shard
#

wait no 7

tall torrent
# sly orchid good ideas but some of em err

I overshot some things so that even if they're to be nerfed in the discussion phase they'd still be good
whereas if I write them as "balanced" imo then they get nerfed then they won't be good enough

calm shard
#

those 3

#

these two

#

and both of these

tall torrent
#

because if u think smth is broken/op then it's very likely that smth even better is a few lines below

calm shard
#

oh my god it's Ranger Veteran from Vermintide 2 :)

calm shard
#

Ranger Veteran heheheheeheh

sly orchid
#

give vet a talent that does increasing stagger with consecutive weakspot hits

#

can only minor stagger ogryn enemies and maulers and doesnt work on bosses

#

has a grace period of 5 seconds

#

so you dont lose it with silliness

tall torrent
compact oracle
#

please make it in such a way that i can stagger a crusher in 1 second of autopistol fire

tall torrent
#

I don't rly want vet to be a stagger oriented class

sly orchid
#

which vet is centered around

tall torrent
sly orchid
#

i kinda skimmed over it

#

but it does look nice

tame lodge
#

Good

tall torrent
#

vet to me should be more cleave/finesse oriented

#

also some ideas I had aren't present in this

signal garden
#

Zealot should be cleave oriented

tall torrent
#

cuz I made this ~same time as arb release

signal garden
#

Vet should be finesse oriented

tall torrent
#

I've since had some newer ideas that are perhaps dumber

sly orchid
#

now what if...

#

we put some bounty hunter stuff on vet

compact oracle
#

maybe itd be bad but i kind of want bh's ability

tame lodge
compact oracle
#

one enormous shot

tall torrent
tame lodge
#

Their unique weapons have some high cleave

#

And they either stagger and reduces mass
Or have access to Perfect Strike

past stratus
#

being Bardin is all I want

#

let me play Ranger Veteran in 40k Fatshark >:(

#

make survivalist a passive and let me drop little ammo things on the ground

#

so I can choose different auras without getting the stinky eye

signal garden
#

Honestly ranged enemies should drop ranged ammo

#

This is a fact

Yeah just add in like an aimed plasma pistolshot

#

very good

tall torrent
signal garden
#

Actually an inferno pistol

calm shard
#

yeah they're just good

#

stacks being at max by default

signal garden
#

Put it on like a 20sec cd

calm shard
#

going away if you miss

#

instead of from fucking walking

I can kind of imagine running it just for the absurd passive toughness replenishment on melee vet

your crime is your miserable existence, your sentence is death blam

pure melee vet just running this+ 20 stacks for the 100% toughness replenishment

#

barely using their gun

tall torrent
calm shard
#

yeah I know

tall torrent
#

But MF is designed to be used as a mega-investment keystone

calm shard
#

but still

tall torrent
#

U truly need like

At least 3 subnodes on MF

To make it unbelievably cracked

#

oh also is Chink in their armour universal rending

#

What Blessing should I run on Mk.IX Infantry Las

tall torrent
deep bone
#

I was using HH Falter

tall torrent
calm shard
#

related question because I would like to use infantry autogun with this

#

is there a cooldown when losing stacks from missed shots

deep bone
#

I was thinking Deadly Accurate but ghost works

calm shard
#

well I can still work with that

tall torrent
#

No cooldown from missing headshot so u can lose stacks incredibly fast on automatics

deep bone
#

Might switch over the The Mk.VII Infantry Las

#

Run HH Ghost on that

signal garden
#

Zealot uses it better

#

Tight hipfire, reduced recoil, high crit

#

It even has a shoot faster button

deep bone
#

Yea but I don’t play Zealot lol

calm shard
#

I see no way this could possibly backfire

signal garden
#

Then stick to a recon gun

tall torrent
signal garden
#

Ilas has annoying recoil

deep bone
#

I like Infantry Las

signal garden
#

You'll like it more when it performs well

deep bone
#

Negative infinity

#

I enjoy it on my Vet build

#

And I ain’t gonna be convinced otherwise

little path
#

What's the best vigilant mk

signal garden
#

Probably the one that doesn't burst fire

little path
#

coolio

past stratus
#

MKV and MKIII Helbore do a good job at being a better Ilas

little path
#

infantry las could use some minor help

#

doesn't need to be super strong but at least let it be not awkward and painful to use

signal garden
#

Poor beam width, exceptional recoil

#

ilas fucking sucks

#

Laspistol performs more in line with the ideal lasgun

#

Minimal recoil, ease of use, efficient

tall torrent
calm shard
#

I don't really see anything substantially wrong with it, but I do want it

#

carnally

#

now that you mention it

little path
#

a stim regen talent would be fun

#

makes it so people don't only go for greens

#

or save it until the final boss fight then instakill him

calm shard
#

I would actually run field improv if it gave me free stimms periodically

signal garden
#

To be fair all the stims are unilaterally good in havocs

calm shard
#

Hell yeah I'll spend one skill point to have the emperor himself plant a red stim in my pocket

sly orchid
#

I would maybe exclude the yellow stim

little path
#

oh yeah, stims are great

tall torrent
# calm shard carnally

+150% ranged finesse
+40% rending
+100% toughness replenishment modifier
+20% reload soeed
insta-reload for ranged on ult use
1s immunity vs ranged atks on ranged weakspot hit

compact oracle
#

generated stims should look fucked up

little path
#

but most people don't use them to make sure a fight goes smooth

calm shard
#

I'd like yellow stimms on builds that aren't exe

#

Exe doesn't need it for obvious reasons

#

but yellow stimms are good

little path
#

people usually pop stims when they're on the verge of dying

calm shard
#

I'm a simple man

#

I see chaos spawn

signal garden
#

Which is ofc dumb

calm shard
#

I use stimm to kill faster

#

I am not chancing that unbalanced shitshow of an enemy any more than I have to

signal garden
#

Yeah it's bizarre

little path
#

you don't know when you'll get another stim and you don't wanna waste it

signal garden
#

Throw all the grenades, shoot all the ammo, better hoard stimms and kits

tall torrent
#

the best kinds of support talents are those that are taken for selfish reasons but end up benefitting the team

calm shard
#

yeah

#

I literally never take field improv as it is now

#

It's a nice novelty, but too situational

#

Only usable 4 times a mission with crates your team may not even find

#

(or remember to use lol)

#

Or they spawn at the absolute ass end of the mission

little path
#

Could also be fun if you started the mission with a random type of crate

tall torrent
#

if field improv gave stimms I might take it on at least 50% of my builds

calm shard
#

I would take it all the time

#

Getting a free blue/red stimm every once in a while

#

And I can just pawn the yellow stimms off to people with abilities that benefit from it

tall torrent
calm shard
#

Yeah but like me personally

#

I play exe vet for the boss chunking

#

Free red/blue stimms would help a lot with that

signal garden
#

I think the stabby power sword is underrated for boss chunking

#

That said power sword is a frustrating weapon to use

#

Dagger is also good at boss chunking, although at that point a helbore is mandatory to do damage to force shields

deep bone
#

All that matters to me is that I enjoy ilas

signal garden
#

And then one big problem is you need to get a perfect block to preserve your charge vs a boss

marble mantle

Man I forgot how addicting combat blade is

signal garden
#

Which one the horizontal slasher or the OG

marble mantle
#

6

#

Wasn’t a huge fan of 3

signal garden
#

I have no idea what

marble mantle
#

Oh uh

signal garden
#

Which is which

#

The OG one has the stabby power attack

#

And the new one has the slashy one

marble mantle
#

6 has stabby heavies / push attack

If that’s what you mean

signal garden
#

Yesh

#

Oh wow the OG

marble mantle
#

Yeah that one’s the one I like

#

Thinking about doing the knife DB WS setup again, recollect it was pretty good

signal garden
#

Well IMHO if you intend to go against bosses with force shields you'll need the helbore bayonet

marble mantle
#

Well I’m already a helbore lover so

#

No worries on that

signal garden
#

Although ive seen people clear rooms by playing chicken, idk what they're doing but it involves running ahead and emptying their double barrel like 4 times

marble mantle
#

I just meant in like auric for fun

signal garden
#

Auric isn't fun unless it's histg

#

There's not enough enemies so everything you try to shank gets executioner shotgun'd

#

And it's fustrating

calm shard
signal garden
#

What can be said, there was a lot of enemies I'm assuming

#

Real question is should one go super reload or just embrace the thrill of reloading in exchange for more damage

marble mantle
#

Mmmmmm I love manstopper

I guess trappers are immune then

What is better in life, sustainable veteran elephant hunter, or sneaky zealot Elmer fudd stealth cannon

That it used to be able to one shot

cloud rock

guess what goes on the end of that barrel?

signal garden
#

Not a bayonet if you're sniping

cloud rock
#

also literally- every sniper from the first and second world wars did that too

past stratus
#

at this point this is just an opinion flinging

#

you want it to be a sniper

#

lmao

cloud rock
#

no I want

signal garden
#

Literally no designated marksman would ever fix a bayonet to snipe

Does this not count with exe stance? I swear I did it

cloud rock
#

a scoped weapon

compact oracle

a decent set of sights

#

all i ask

past stratus
#

a scope for what we barely get 20m hallways in this game

i would use weapon customization but it tanks my performance

past stratus

wanna zoom in on plague ogryn to see its guts on 4k?

cloud rock

yes.

signal garden

It's not the hallways that's the issue, any time an optic enhances your visibility of the desired target it is doing its job

cloud rock
#

I wanna see the specific pustules I am hitting

signal garden

If the head becomes the big head, the optic is doing its job

compact oracle

plenty of huge open areas anyway

cloud rock
#

quick side tangent

compact oracle
#

i would probably just end up hipfiring it most of the time but its not like the game is 90% hallway

signal garden
#

Well the issue is the best headshot guns in the game right now are hipfire guns

#

And then the bolter

cloud rock
signal garden
#

Everything else, the infantry auto gun is also better at headshotting rapidly from the hip

past stratus
#

I think the Helbore is already the limit of how much you can safely stand around and aim without getting your shit destroyed. I can't imagine having a weapon that is even more tunnel vision.

fervent citrus
#

so is there any other melee weapon that can work as well as the power sword or dueling sword

signal garden
#

The iLas is ironically dog shit at precision

compact oracle
#

id take iLas sights for helbore though

signal garden
#

Because massive recoil and a small projectile

compact oracle

i want a scope on every weapon

fervent citrus

I can’t find a good balance between crowd control and single target on my vet melee

No shovel unfortunately

are you using mele for single targets or multiple then?

Power sword does hella crowd control, dueling sword does hella single target

I want both

Power sword does both

the Power Sword does really good single target damage

so it'd be easier to set up a particular loadout and playstyle

tall torrent

I

past stratus
#

also Vet's melee weapon selection is just a bit miserable. What I found out here is that you just have to go with whatever fits your playstyle and practice like crazy. Like how Papa Wily plays Chaxe, everyone else thinks its dogshit but he makes it work. Or that one guy that is really enthusiastic about Heavy Swords, also a Havoc 40 player

cloud rock

I have not found thy function

Heavy sword is actually good

Another thing thats never really talked about but lethal prox also makes bistol really good at close range firing

wasnt the explosion bigger when the weapon was new

hybrid plover

Since the arming distance doesn't exist with it.

like blam, knock everyone in the room down

well, if it was a sufficiently small room ofc

So if you see a trapper in the middle of a horde, quick draw, dome it, and anything around it also gets staggered.

That push attack is no joke.

But then again I also use a bunch of nodes to give me extra damage on shout so actually, that's probably a case by case basis

Just from the amount of poxers your initial swing kills

# sharp trail what are the best combos for 6?

For blessings:

  • Always have uncanny strike
  • If focusing solely on single-target, also flesh tearer
  • If you want to have decent horde clear, also get precog or riposte (riposte preferred)
    For perks:
  • If not running stam curio, +2 stam (preferred method so you can get more toughness)
  • Unyielding for bosses/ogryns
  • Flak/maniac (iirc) if you have a stam curio
