It's actually more consistent.

covert fable
#

LOL

hybrid plover
#

It's the blessing that gives you strength scaling off of how low your stamina is.

#

But yeah AoN is not a bad option solely because the more you push and sprint , the more strength you're getting.

ember nest
#

I'm not fdoinbg very good with shovel

covert fable
#

welcom to vet

hybrid plover
#

And vet isn't entirely known for great stamina retention so it ends up being more effective. You just have to know when to back off since it's a risk and reward kind of blessing.

#

But being at max stacks of AoN ends up being 40% strength.

covert fable
#

WHAT

#

40% strength is crazy

shy atlas
#

this is a gremlin moment

hybrid plover
#

Yeah. But realistically, that would mean you're at 0% stamina. You don't always wanna bank on that. So trying to keep yourself at say... 20-40% stamina is still really good

covert fable
#

good point

hybrid plover
#

20% stamina = 32% strength. 40=24. So on and so forth.

#

It says up to 8% but that's a fucking lie.

#

Thanks Fatshark.

Yeah it's a very badly worded blessing.

Also AoN bugged

hybrid plover

#

For shovel and tac axe it is 10% Tstr per stack

hybrid plover
#

Don't have your jump and dodge be the same key.

tall torrent
#

Realistically u can keep 4 stacks up

hybrid plover
#

Yeah so it's stronger for shovel

#

My dodge key is actually one of my side mouse buttons

tall torrent
#

Unfortunately shovel is a gaslighting tier melee

#

It’s rly just a blessing stick XD

hybrid plover
#

It honestly is šŸ˜”

#

Like it's usable but by God the boss damage is just

I wish it was better God dammit

Veteran’s 2 exclusive melee weapons
One is a stat stick
One is a blessing stick

the bonk

hybrid plover
#

That being said. It's one of those weapons that will make you a better player imho

buoyant pewter
#

(i say this about the sound nothing else mechanically, it just has a great bonk sound)

hybrid plover
#

That's the main reason I use it

#

And admittedly it does have good crowd control.

I do love its swing patterns

Great imo

do you run AMD on your PC? apparently it's a been a problem with AMD PC's (can confirm, I run all-AMD)

#

or maybe I'm thinking of a different problem related to AMD

#

I got no mods on my end

#

Agri combat

ember nest
covert fable
#

Nope, no mods

covert fable
tall torrent
#

That’s prob because of disabled mesh streamer

#

Mesh streamer has an issue where it may not fully render everything up to detail resulting in polygon environments and weapons

covert fable
tall torrent
#

Prob an AMD issue with mesh streamer

covert fable
#

Most likely

#

Just rlly strange

tall torrent
#

Go into user settings config file and enable it

#

It might make ur game look weird

covert fable
#

My pc has been defeated by a cosmetics page 😭

tall torrent
#

Just AMD having AMD issues

#

Nothing out of the ordinary here

covert fable
#

Still team red over greem

tall torrent
#

It doesn’t ultimately matter

#

Brand loyalty is dumb

covert fable
#

I just don't like nvidia because their stuff is expensive

#

Although they cook with rtx

tall torrent
#

Older stuff u can find used parts much cheaper

covert fable
#

Yeah thats true

#

I got an 4070ti super used pc for 900 bucks

That's a juicy card

The only worth 40 series for me

I got a used 7900xtx for £400 from a friend

tall torrent

4080 super also good

covert fable
#

4080 price was bad no?

tall torrent

4080 super is not 4080

covert fable
#

Ohh

#

I see

shy atlas
tall torrent
#

What does i stand for

covert fable
#

I think they mean ti but forgots z the t

tall torrent
#

There’s no 4080ti

#

It’s just 4080 and 4080 super

#

And 4080 is not produced anymore, just 4080 super

covert fable
#

Yeah

cyan verge
#

RTX sucks in my experience

covert fable
#

Also does onslaught debuff only work for you or team too

cyan verge
#

I have a 5070 Ti but only because I upgraded from a 6900 XT because I wanted CUDA + tensorcores

marble mantle
#

The mk6 power sword was the better one right

cyan verge
#

onslaught, isn't that the brittleness debuff

covert fable
#

Yes

cyan verge
#

no it works for everyone but onslaught sucks

Bottom right

throw it away into the abyss

yeah I think I got like... 4 or 5 year warranty though, so eh

How is the rasterization performance in comparison to the 6900xt

tall torrent
covert fable
#

Like if I light up a crusher

but, I also paid basically the same price for like a slight upgrade, I probably wouldn't have upgraded at all if I didn't really want CUDA + tensorcores

What’s the setup for mk6 psword

marble mantle

I know cleave dump

Thanksies

cyan verge
#

I would actually more recommend the 6900 XT for gaming unless you for some reason want to mess with, like, productivity things

#

or their new GPUs

#

which I think are comparable in performance

covert fable
#

Yeah amd is good for gaming

cyan verge
#

they are fantastic for gaming in my experience and have better linux support

covert fable
#

Yeah better rasterization

cyan verge
#

drivers builtin to kernel instead of nvidia where it's like I have 15 different packages I could install and only one of them is the right choice

#

or maybe only two

#

I dunno

covert fable
#

I like amds uh

#

Idk whar to call it

#

Their app

#

To adjust stuff

#

It's way more organised

cyan verge
#

oh, yeah adrenalin or whatever

covert fable
#

Yeah

cyan verge
#

they did a flip, nvidia's control center used to be better than catalyst now it's like nvidia's software is a dumpster and AMD's is really quite good

#

also, nvidia's fucking geforce bullshit which is where you get shadowplay etc, they sell your data according to the privacy policy, and you need to login to use it, soooooooo

#

yeah that's cool

cyan verge
#

I feel like people are only now kind of starting to wake up to like oh wait nvidia is evil, now

#

which is a shame because it's far too late now

#

way, way, way too late

covert fable
#

The fact that the 1080ti holds up to the 50 series is funny

#

How old is that card?

cyan verge
#

well not in terms of VRAM

covert fable
#

Bro

#

It should NOT be close

#

It should be leaps ahead

cyan verge
#

also, I don't think that

#

it actually is

#

idk where you're getting that information but just due to the age of the card alone it's probably not outperforming new cards

#

especially in DX12 applications

shy atlas
#

c:

hollow ibex
cyan verge
#

did they change that

#

oh good, I'm glad

#

if they did change it then I am 100% okay with that, I'm wrong

hollow ibex

lol

hollow ibex

It just costs 10k usd KEKW_ogryn

isn't that an 8gb card

that thing is junk

covert fable
#

Yeah

#

But even then

#

It should be better 😭

"hey my little employees, you're doing such a great job, really good, but now we're gonna have to have you come in for a little medical procedure, everyone is getting these neat little AI-driven RTX chips implanted in their brains to help you raytrace in real life! this is a free upgrade courtesy of the CEO"

covert fable
#

Nvidia cooked too hard

#

Now they fell off

hollow ibex
#

Nvidia is still good, just overpriced as fuck

#

And AMD gave up on competing at the high end

covert fable
#

Yup

hollow ibex
#

Never thought I’d see the day I root for Intel…

cyan verge
#

they gave up competing because they spent the past like 20 years where no one bought their graphics cards

#

there's people going like ohhh AMD gave up I can't believe it and it's like well yeah, did you buy an AMD GPU? no? exactly

covert fable
#

Jk

hollow ibex
#

I’d love for AMD to get good again at the higher tier cards

covert fable
#

I got one of their new cpus 9000 series

#

It's rlly nice

#

For gaming

tall torrent
hollow ibex
#

Their cpus are excellent yeah

tall torrent
#

like

#

shadowplay is just

#

not a thing on linux

covert fable
#

Everyone just likes Linux

tall torrent
#

geforce app also not a thing on linux (?)

covert fable
#

It's a better windows righ

tall torrent
covert fable
#

I hear it has compatibility issues,?

#

With some games

hybrid plover
#

Its also just not as user friendly.

tall torrent
#

kernel level anticheat

#

some games are fine and work

covert fable
#

Oh

tall torrent
#

some don't and the devs don't bother adjusting

#

linux being user friendly or not can vary greatly based on the distro ur using

covert fable
#

Distro?

#

I like how this has been a general chat for the past 30 mins

cyan verge
#

yeah there's no geforce app or nothing

#

well there's nothing veteran related to talk about

#

also, it fits that veterans are linux users

covert fable
#

Fair

cyan verge
#

psykers are mac users, zealots use windows 11, and ogryns have a laptop with a cracked screen

tall torrent
# covert fable Distro?

diff variations of linux
because it's open source (based) everyone can make their own versions of it

cyan verge
#

hence the many different like 'joke' distros

covert fable
tall torrent
cyan verge
#

(psst don't listen to him and don't use mint, try manjaro instead)

tall torrent
#

it's quite literally Windows if it wasn't Windows

covert fable
cyan verge
#

you do have to be willing to learn but it's not that bad

#

in many ways it's more user friendly, hence people using linux at all

covert fable
#

I'll stick to my windows 11 that is prob filled with endless bloatware

cyan verge
#

if it was harder to use, then people would not use linux

tall torrent
#

I would tell u to go with CachyOS but u also have to type a few more commands from time to time cuz Arch

cyan verge
#

one of the most frustrating things after win7 for me was when every windows just had like all these different UI changes between not just versions but updates and then even layers of different UI for all these different settings that sometimes change the same thing but have different options

#

win11 for instance, if you want to look at like power options, you have the win11 power options or you can look up the oldschool control panel to get like circa 2005 windows XP control panel with different power options AND advanced power options inaccessible otherwise

tall torrent
cyan verge
#

it's a NIGHTMARE to navigate all that shit, it's soooo much more user UNFRIENDLY than linux, where, like, this is my entire control panel on gnome

#

it's so much nicer

cyan verge
shy atlas
#

;-;

#

is it good

tall torrent
cyan verge
#

if you swap GPUs on windows you basically have to reinstall the operating system or else you will randomly get bluescreens from stray ATI or nvidia .dlls

#

on linux I didn't have to do shit, I just installed the nvidia drivers

#

and if I wanted to go back to AMD I would just uninstall the nvidia drivers

#

gg

covert fable
#

just drivers i believe

tall torrent
#

on linux it's either "it all just works" or u hard cope with some wiki for 40hrs straight

cyan verge
#

you do, in my experience, I have tried all the driver removal tools for windows to get cruft out of your system, never ever worked for me

cyan verge
#

even like the whole boot into safe mode and use DDU to remove your drivers, NEVER worked

covert fable
#

thats really strange

cyan verge
#

idk why

#

but it never did

covert fable
#

it should always work

cyan verge
#

so fuck it all

I was there, a hundred years ago, where everything was done by cmd prompts on a blank OS with no GUI

i ate too much pizza and my stomach hurts now

cyan verge

#

also weirdly enough linux ran most games better for me than win11

cyan verge
#

one of the big contributors for me was like

#

every fromsoft game

#

works linux day 1

#

always very happy about that

#

oh, shit, that reminds me I know some people had like weird problems with that one wukong game cuz they didn't have a system that supports like h.265 or some shit but then I ran it on linux and it ran for me lmao

this game has very dynamic builds with a great amount of player choice and variety

by the way would you prefer to know the one veteran build now or will you accept it later?

tall torrent
hybrid plover
covert fable
cyan verge
#

true, I forgot about that

tall torrent
#

there are some meme tier bloated distros for linux

shy atlas
#

SCcrying who am i to judge

cyan verge
#

I honestly have not compared most of my games to windows, if they run on linux they're probably gonna run well so idc

#

even if I gained like 10fps on windows not worth it

#

right now I don't even have windows installed cuz I cbf

#

normally I dual-boot

#

but eh

tall torrent
#

dual-boot for work

cyan verge
#

there is no reason of course why you can't dual-boot

tall torrent
#

I make the steam guide weapon moveset charts in powerpoint

cyan verge
#

makes sense

#

openoffice and libreoffice are like OK

#

but, yeah

#

but one trap I remember I fell into a very long time ago was like "oh I'll use windows for most of my games and linux for other stuff" and then I spent all my time on windows

nowadays with steamplay and proton we can just do everything on linux except EAC games and the new battlefield which wants like bios anticheat which is a LOLNO on linux

#

by the way - the whole "cheaters are linux users" thing is so so funny to me, when it's like

tall torrent
#

lol

#

and I'm not bothered to learn how to use it proper

cyan verge
#

we can only even play most of these games on linux as of the past few years, and if you are trying to do like cheaty things, why in gods name would you be on linux, you're probably a script kiddie trying to run programs that hook and alter stuff in memory right

tall torrent

when almost every IT job ever still uses windows for the normal stuff

fucken sat in queue for 10 minutes just for deadlock to roll an update and kick me out

so it's like. lol.

cyan verge
#

oh that sucks

#

yeah

#

dota 2 has that kinda as well right

#

valve always be updating

#

I did not like deadlock from what I played of it, feels too aimless

hearty panther
#

never played DotA2, played a lot of DotA tho

#

Deadlock is pretty peak

tall torrent
#

I updated steam guide's talent sections (simplified)

hearty panther
#

Great if you're unemployed

tall torrent
#

now 3 sections per branch

#

9 sections total

cyan verge
#

if you didn't play dota2 I can see why deadlock would feel fresh

um guys

cyan verge
#

deadlock is basically dota 2 but first person and you right click on creeps and enemies by shooting

big fan of that

#

last hitting is the shittiest moba mechanic and doesnt deserve to keep living

cyan verge

I have not played it since 2024 so it has probably changed a lot but yeah if I wanted to play dota, my general perspective is I would rather just play dota

and I don't particularly want to play dota at the moment

look at the end of the clip xD

covert fable
#

where jarvis meme?

hybrid plover
#

Honestly I've just gotten to the point where if I see three arbitrators in the team, I'm out.

#

It's either I'm not going to be able to play the game, or I have to babysit morons.

#

Meaning I'm also not playing the game.

#

It's a lose lose.

civic apex
#

I’ve mainly just been doing true solos but it’s not the same. I like teamplay

#

Arb is a solo class

hybrid plover
#

Arb is a Havoc class.

#

We didn't need classes balanced for havoc.

civic apex
#

Well it turns h40 into regular auric

#

Imo

hybrid plover
#

Okay it's not that overbearingly strong. Havoc 40 is still havoc 40 and you still need to have a brain up there not to die even as an arbitrator.

#

That being said, it's clearly balanced more for havoc.

#

And that's not a good thing.

civic apex
#

Okay, true. But still, my BIGGEST problem with it is that it has no team role

#

Aside from ā€œfrontlineā€ with the best damage and defense

narrow frost
#

What's a team role?

civic apex
#

Sorry I guess I defined it bad

hybrid plover
#

Nuncio does actually make the class more team oriented.

civic apex
#

But what I mean is that like playing with a vet is like gold from shout and ammo regen

#

Whereas the arb is fully stacked into themself

#

Like it’s very selfish in nature

narrow frost
#

They provide the team with damage reduction, Nancy, and damage to staggered enemies

#

On top of holding agro and doing damage which all classes can do

narrow frost
#

Forgot the name of it

hybrid plover
#

Yeah it's not that the class itself promotes selfish play in design.

narrow frost
#

They also reduced enemy damage

civic apex
hybrid plover
#

It's that it's so powerful that people take it as an excuse to play selfishly.

narrow frost
#

Suppression protocol?

#

Works for all enemies

#

Ohhh you mean in practice

#

Depends on team and user I guess

hybrid plover
#

The design in theory is fine. But the numbers are just too crazy in their current state.

tame lodge
#

Left side above aura

civic apex
#

Yeah that’s what I meant, in practice. Because if it is actually staggered it won’t deal damage

#

So like head shooting a boss

#

Is the case it works in

narrow frost
civic apex
#

I am also totally biased with my experiences

hybrid plover
civic apex
#

I know the class :(** **

#

I guess my writing doesn’t reflect that

hybrid plover
#

Tbf some people genuinely don't know that concussive works like that

narrow frost
#

All classes have talent and buffs they provide with the team. But this all varies depending on the team, mission, and user knowledge and skill. Arby being seen more self centered is probably because users feel like the main character with the class's current power level thus playing solo and not providing their "team role"

ember nest
#

I do all this shit to try and make shovel feel better

narrow frost
#

I do see your point

ember nest
#

and then I try out a scriers DD BFGS melee build ONE SINGULAR TIME

#

feels infinitely better 😩

narrow frost
#

But all classes can do everything other classes do

#

Vet can Frontline agro control

tame lodge
#

Concussive is a weird talent

hybrid plover
tame lodge
#

What enemy can't I stagger as Arby's?

hybrid plover
#

Because as long as you hit a weakspot in melee, it is considered staggered.

civic apex
#

I also play just h40 pub and arbs have usually less game sense to get good credentials

hybrid plover
#

I mean if you're being realistic and talking like

#

Actual stagger

tall torrent
hybrid plover
#

I mean. Even that's a hard pressed question because grenades stagger literally anything.

civic apex
#

I’ve had most of my bad experiences from arb, not shroud

civic apex
#

I also feel a little annoyed ogryn out damages psyker usually

narrow frost
#

They think they know

#

Ogryn is ogryn

#

Easily on top

#

They way over done the rework

tame lodge
tall torrent
#

ogryn and arb need stat nerfs
psyker needs mechanical nerfs and stat nerfs

civic apex
#

I know people love the class, and I’m fine with it being super tanky and big bro protects, but also like ogryn is the other class that plays the second most like solos

narrow frost
#

Sadly

tall torrent
narrow frost
#

Right now balance is skewed

#

And I am praying that Fatshark does the thing that will improve the game

civic apex
#

Like I learned to play psyker up to my h40 clear and I just had ogryns keep telling me to keep up or join the brotherhood with aggro dumps on me

narrow frost
#

But I don't think they will nerf

#

They want consumers and money

#

Nerfs won't do that

#

Nerfs only appeal to the top 1%

hybrid plover
#

The only thing that's truly weird about concussive is how it doesn't mention that it being considered stagger isn't the same as actually being staggered.

narrow frost
#

Yeah...

#

The things I hear from the play tester server....

#

It makes sense from a business front, but it makes the game bland to me

civic apex
#

I actually went and learned vt2 but then got sad because I was playing solo almost all the time

#

I spend most of my time doing solos in vt2 now

tame lodge
#

P2P moment

narrow frost
#

VT 2 feels way more rewarding

civic apex
#

I started with whc so most things feel bad

#

Aside from whc

tall torrent
narrow frost
#

I agree

#

But do you think fatshark knows or cares to balance around us?

#

They cater to the average play in heresy/malice

tame lodge
#

500 buffs to Psyker

#

šŸ—£ļø

tall torrent
#

it's very clearly balanced around havoc now

hybrid plover
tall torrent
#

the most recent 2 patches of balance changes

hybrid plover
#

Yeah havoc's existence and the insistence of Fatshark to balance things around it tell me otherwise.

#

But balancing things around Havoc isn't the way to go either.

tame lodge
#

Reduced quelling for Psyker at havoc
So we buffed Crack
But now it's counterproductive because you quell too much

hybrid plover
#

It's not meant to be a fair experience in theory.

tall torrent
#

that'll prob make psyker balanced

tame lodge
#

The alternative is the rise of gunkers

#

Although it would keep FGS horde clear at bay

tall torrent
#

would honestly prefer that

#

at least gun psyker isn't "m2 + m1" braindead

#

and u actually need weakspot hits with gun psyker (like veteran) which is at least 10000x more skill than blasting flame at enemy

unreal nova
hybrid plover
#

Wahwahwah

tame lodge
#

I unironically started bringing Accatran shotgun psyker to havoc

hybrid plover
#

Good. I'm honestly tired of the whole "gunker isn't viable" meme.

#

It's more tricky but completely doable but people really will get mad about Psykers not using staves because they waste ammo, solely because they have a ranged means that doesn't use ammo.

tall torrent
tame lodge
#

Kinda funny

#

Had a bolter vet recently

#

He performed averagely

#

Still had to let him get ammo

#

Smh my head

hybrid plover
#

Which is funny because in theory, a gunker who actually knows how to hit their shots technically gets more investment out of their ammo because they just do so much more damage than any other human class.

covert fable

how does one use lethal proximity with boltgun to benefit the gernades?

mobility dump, full bore and no respite usually

#

You can't manstopper scattershot on agri shotgun?

hybrid plover

you can, but the spread is a lot tighter than the other shotguns so you don't get as much mileage out of those two

#

and the slug always procs full bore

barren cave
#

Damn, full bore and no respite do more dmg than having fire frenzy and deathspitter?

spring ocean
#

yes

#

also agri has decent stagger so quick to get full stacks

#

usually you'll be using slug to stagger big targets like reapers or maulers or to kill targets like trappers and snipers, and mag dumping softer targets like gunners and shotgunners

# crimson wyvern what the fuck is Ranged Finesse Damage on veterans left keystone

Finesse is a boost to weakspot, critical, and critical weakspot damage. More accurately it's boosting your finesse multiplier, where that represents your critical weakspot damage and weakspot/critical hits are just a fraction (60% usually) of the bonus.

As a sub-fact, because it only boosts your finesse mult something like a 75% finesse increase only applies to the damage gained from a finesse hit, rather than the total hit.

That's honestly the biggest problem with it

If Fatshark just fixed that, power sword across the board would just be better

Which, is funny because I'm fairly certain they said they did fix that.

covert fable

I guess that's a good point

hybrid plover
#

Yeah like, if the sword actually did anything without it being charged or it didn't get deactivated for the smallest reasons, then my opinion on that would change. But a good player will 100% get more milage out of the power sword for sure.

#

But even a good player can run into a complication because it takes literally, one attack while you're in a heated situation and suddenly you can't kill a god damn thing in that split second and that matters a lot sometimes.

#

It's actively gotten me killed before.

That shit just needs to get axed out of the game entirely.

#

Literally one of the worst things Fatshark has done with Havoc. Didn't work when it was first implemented and was part of the reason that people found Havoc 1.0 to be so unfun, and somehow, not only did they put it back in but neglected to realize that Rampaging enemies overrides it, meaning you can't tell which enemies are gonna splatter in a green goop.

I love being punished for using melee, in a game, that heavily emphasizes the importance of melee.

Great design..

sudden cedar

It is not being punished for using melee

sudden cedar
#

It is punishment for killing enemies.

#

Because you can't advance at a pace you would like

#

Because there's stuff on the ground

#

And when shit hits the fan, that will spiral out of control because it limits the space you can move through safely

hybrid plover
#

It moreso affects you in melee combat though, since, ya know. You have to be close to fight in melee.

But in a vacuum, yes, it basically just punishes you for playing the game entirely.

sudden cedar
#

Of course, melee gets hit the most.

hybrid plover
#

Meaning, Fatshark. Just take it out of the game.

#

It's actually frustrating how bad the design of the modifier is.

No one likes it.

I like it for the base concept.

But since EVERY enemy will eventually have it, that is no fun
