ok I'll try with Mk1

#

I used mk7 because of the special attack

sonic kayak
#

But you're attacking with the serrated part of the shovel not the blunt end on the Mk 3, so it makes sense

hybrid plover
#

With hordes, push, and then heavies. For single target, like crushers, that's when you want to use the push attack.

normal bay
#

Good horde clear is bad on shovel, because that means less funny bonking sounds

hollow ibex
#

the damage on the lights is kinda pathetic tho

sonic kayak
snow cypress
#

and which perks could I use?

hollow ibex
#

i tried running a meme bleed shovel build with mk3, that's how i realized how bad the lights damage is lol

#

Hello everyone: Quick question, does precision strikes ( 30%weak spot damage) apply to grenades?

covert fable
#

I hope It applies to everything

narrow frost
#

grenades hit a differnt part of enemies, so no

sonic kayak
narrow frost
#

not a weakspot

#

explosions hit center mass

hybrid plover

#

If you decide to go serrated blade, unyielding also isn't a bad choice but I would not recommend trying to square up with bosses without serrated.

sonic kayak
#

I only use it on the shovel KEKW_ogryn

hybrid plover
#

Serrated is unironically pretty good on shovel

#

I just hate taxes.

covert fable
#

Who doesn't

#

oh you mean tactical axe?

hybrid plover
#

No I mean tax nodes.

covert fable

Ah I took it too literally..

#

Any hot takes on what’s the most fun build for vet

frail citrus
#

whats with the anti-vet crusade as of recent

#

ive been vote kicked the last 4 games because im running VOC vet

#

which was preluded by shit talking and shaming

covert fable
#

People can't use vet (skill issue) and assume others can't probabl

#

or they see it as a weak class

covert fable
frail citrus
#

and if i wanted to spam my abilities all game maybe i should try uninstalling and trying a diff game

livid citrus
#

IMO vet is not fkn op

frail citrus
#

just really weird stuff

covert fable
frail citrus
#

wanted to see if anyone else was experiencing the same stuff lol

distant plaza
covert fable
#

Are they smoking diamantine

frail citrus
#

cuz ive seen it a few times but this was like

#

every game the past few games

livid citrus
#

I bet they’re saying this while playing arby lmfao

frail citrus
#

i dont remember vet hate ever being this bad

covert fable
#

Fr

frail citrus
#

every single one of them was full stack arb team

covert fable
#

Maybe they didn't play the game since vet came out

livid citrus
#

most broken fkn class

frail citrus
#

one of them i said "at least im not a ptw class" and they didnt like that

#

but

#

still i dont remember it being this frequent lol

#

i havent played vet in a minute tho

#

300 lvls took a break to get my other classes up to 200

covert fable
#

What build are you running

frail citrus
#

i been playing vet since day 1 so i run fun stuff

covert fable
#

Fair

frail citrus
#

but this time i was running plasma cuz i wanted to try out my new crosshair

#

so i guess kinda OP

covert fable
#

I need to try that gun

#

It sounds rlly busted

frail citrus
#

youve never used plasma?

covert fable
#

No

#

Sounds too op

frail citrus
#

its probably THE vet weapon

#

yeah it is

covert fable
#

But I should try it

frail citrus
#

that is the "click on enemies and they die" weapon

#

normally i run cadian RP build

covert fable
#

I normally like using recon lasgun vraks iag or db

frail citrus
#

VOC w/ Shovel or PSword and Recon Lasgun (Heavy) or Inf Lasgun

#

they were like stripping me down too

covert fable
frail citrus
#

even started insulting my drip

covert fable
#

Not the drip 😭

frail citrus
#

"these vets always dressing up like theyre cool or something when theyre just losers"

covert fable
#

definitely zealot players

frail citrus
#

"keep playing that class and ill rip off those legs and beat you with them"

frail citrus
#

and they were shitting on him too

#

"dueling sword zealots... cancer of the game, worse than vets"

#

i have no clue what their problem was

covert fable
#

Ppl take it too seriously

frail citrus
#

fr it was only maelstrom

#

maybe id understand in havoc

covert fable
#

Making stuff personal over a game

frail citrus
#

but maelstrom is like prolly most casual high level

#

idk why ppl take so seriously

frail citrus
#

they all OP dude plz just let me play

#

🙇‍♂️

covert fable
#

Pve game btw

hybrid solstice
#

Imagine people want to have fun in game

covert fable
#

Not allowed sorry

frail citrus
#

everyone must play what I think is the most fun

covert fable
#

Exactly

frail citrus
#

anything other than my standard is wrong and sabotaging our game

covert fable
#

now we're getting somewhere

frail citrus
#

need to get into that darktide mindset

sudden cedar
#

Mhm.. i just get people who explode poxbursters while iam next to them.

covert fable
#

And stare at them

sudden cedar
#

That would mean i hold a grudge.

covert fable
#

Nah

sudden cedar
#

Iam above that. Most of the time.

covert fable
#

The grudge can last until the match is over

serene bough
#

I always be sure to say "Sry" after blowing someone up with a pox burster

#

Unless it was funny, then I say "Sry lmao"

frail citrus
#

i always say sorry

#

its important for team morale

serene bough
#

One time I blew up a psyker and he flew into a cluster of 12 ragers

covert fable
#

Just common decency to say sorry

sonic kayak
#

Even with my friends

#

Sometimes you just blow up a burster

#

Grin and bear it

serene bough
#

It happens

#

What i really hate is when the arby dog knocks the buster closer to you sometimes

covert fable
serene bough
#

True

covert fable
#

Imagine if arby dog attacked everything including demonhosts

serene bough
#

Arby dog attacking DH would be hilarious

#

True trolling

covert fable
#

They should do that for April fools

mortal aspen
#

it can aggro DH

livid citrus
covert fable
#

Do you have to ping the dh for it to target or does it have a mind of its own?

mortal aspen
#

nah, but the AoE bleed can aggro DH

covert fable
#

Wtf

#

Aoe bleed 😭😭

#

Borderlands is a 10000 times better alternative to warframe

icy gulch
#

on god

covert fable
#

Not exactly same type of game but hk

icy gulch
#

not really the same type of game, but its fun af

serene bough
#

I remember playing warframe once during jts beta

hybrid plover
#

Regarding earlier, if someone shit talks and they're an arbitrator, their opinion is instantly invalidated

icy gulch
#

i mean even darktide. its just fun lol

serene bough
#

Never touched again

icy gulch
covert fable
#

Ik in borderlands you can have insanely op builds but it's actually fun

hybrid plover
icy gulch
#

but doggo

#

doggo is the real mvp

covert fable
#

The arby must prove themselves

icy gulch
#

i bought arby and was gonna play it as my first class but it felt wrong so i went vet

hybrid plover
#

My point is that it really doesn't hold weight to insult somebody as the class that's so overpowered that it's quite literally making the game worse

icy gulch
#

i just bought it bc i saw towershield

#

shield and doggo? Gimmie

covert fable
hybrid plover
#

And it's funny because its usually arbites I've seen that genuinely shit talk for the smallest reasons

icy gulch
#

well i played it for about 10 minutes in the intro and i think commanding a dog is kinda neat

#

das bout it

covert fable
#

You also become immortal'

icy gulch
#

did not know that

#

nor did i look at the tree

covert fable
#

It's prob fun to just annihilate everything with it

icy gulch
#

well i thought it was useful to command the doggo to attack like a gunner or sum

covert fable
#

Yeah I don't think the dog can die

#

It's nice

icy gulch
#

it's purty neat

sudden cedar
#

The dog can temporarily disable itself should it jump over a ledge into the void.

icy gulch
#

ah yes, a regenerating flesh mammal

sudden cedar
#

@covert fable And no, Castigators Stance does not make you immortal.

hybrid plover
sudden cedar
#

You receive very high damage reduction, but you still shouldn't eat an overhead or a sniper shot

sudden cedar
#

Read it.

#

I said "you shouldn't"

#

But i guess that is a mindset for the careless.

covert fable
hybrid plover
#

I mean true, you still take damage but the damage, is so miniscule that it barely matters in the moment.

#

It's an overexaggeration clearly but

#

It's not even that far from the truth.

covert fable
#

I remeber yesterday spectating an arby getting pummelled in the corner and his toughness was just regening instantly

hybrid plover
#

Castigator's is severely busted.

covert fable
#

Like he did die but he lasted so long

sonic kayak
hybrid plover
#

I remember when I was first trying to play it with castigator's and it was a sniper maelstrom

#

And tanked about... Six sniper shots.

covert fable
#

I got turned into a casualty after 1 sniper shot

hybrid plover
#

It's.

sudden cedar
#

That is the problem. You did tank them.

#

You shouldn't.

hybrid plover
#

It's really stupid.

#

I'm aware you shouldn't. But you can. That shouldn't even be possible to do.

#

And I didn't even take any meaningful damage.

#

That's why it's really not that much of a stretch to say Castigator's is just on demand Until Death.

#

You can still get screwed by poxbursters and snipers.

#

If anything, poxbursters is a stealth player's worst enemy.

unreal nova
#

Had two stealth karks in one game, was annoying.

Charge never worth

Less ammo eco

Not worth

plain osprey
# hearty turtle No charge?

At the current state of affairs, single shot spam, dont bother aiming.

But it is scheduled to recieve a nerf some time in the near future so people use the charge more so in the future you may have to adjust your playstile.

Or you take a better gun. Better as in less boring and sweatty

hearty turtle

I use recon and bolt gun mostly

Recon go brr

Bolt go bang

While you're here bath, what are the perks and such for combat axe?

tall torrent
hearty turtle
#

Is dueling sword the same as on other classes?

icy gulch
#

why do i see everyone using the plasma gun? Are all the other guns redundant? I feel like the bolt pistol is really fun

tall torrent

boltpistol is ok

tall torrent

Same perks and blessings

Or are they different?

icy gulch
#

just somethin about making them turn into mist ketchup

hearty turtle
#

Ok they are different for each class it seems

#

That was for zealot. For the pskyer it says uncanny and shred

hybrid plover
#

shred is a weird blessing

#

you usually want to take riposte if you have both options

tall torrent
hybrid plover
#

and for psyker, it's entirely dependent on how you're playing them tbh

#

for example, if you're using inferno staff, you might want to consider uncanny + thrust

#

that up there explains it. it's not hard at all to hit max thrust stacks and you do crazy damage

#

if you use your special between heavies well enough, crushers quite literally cant even attempt to engage you before you oneshot them to oblivion

hybrid plover
#

i don't really see that many people use plasma anymore

#

been seeing a lot of bolters and agri shotguns for sure though

tall torrent
#

plasma not as good as arb

atomic void
#

i see a lot of plasma

#

on eu

tall torrent
#

ext8 does almost the same thing at <15m and can spread to hit more things
also kills crusher & reaper faster

atomic void

the classic ds4 plasma

#

having a plasma vet is good

they get rid of the pesky annoying reapers gigaxi

i'm talkin auric too

atomic void

auric has become the playground to try goofy shit for me

you know what im starting my havoc grind right now

auric veteran meta is rashad/power sword + zarona revolver
nothing else on same level

what class do i run chat

hybrid plover
tall torrent
atomic void
#

im gonna literally roll a dice and pick a class

#

its arb ICANT

hybrid plover
#

of course you rolled a die and got arb

#

tbf though, any class works. but it's an unfortunate reality that those three get the most returns for least effort

icy gulch
atomic void
#

huh game gave me 15 even tho i beat auric malestrom on arb

#

guess this is what happen s when u dont play for ages

hybrid plover
covert fable
#

what is this

hybrid plover
#

good spread pattern. slugs to snipe from afar. very good ammo economy

atomic void
#

bro why cant u choose your fkn server in havoc still ICANT

hybrid plover
#

you literally do not need the 25% ammo node if you're running survivalist

atomic void
#

time to get an NA server cause im playign with someone on NA

icy gulch
#

slugs?

#

oooo

hybrid plover
covert fable
#

i was looking at the guide and didnt know what those were

hybrid plover
#

oh i see

covert fable
#

i found redirect fire

hybrid plover
#

So to explain a bit, Fire Team is an aura, and Redirect Fire is a subnode for Focus Target

#

Fire Team is considered the worst aura for vet but it does actually have some synergy with plasma

covert fable
#

OHH

hybrid plover
#

Pretty much, it's saying those are important because

#

more damage

covert fable
#

yup

hybrid plover
#

meaning, better breakpoints

icy gulch
#

😐

covert fable
#

i just got confused because i didnt know what those are 😭

icy gulch
#

gonna make sure i dont have fire team

hybrid plover
#

Fire Team really isn't as bad as people make it out to be

#

It's just

#

Not Survivalist

atomic void
#

why is this back

hybrid plover
#

it's why i haven't been playing havoc as much

icy gulch
#

im using fire team

#

crap

#

was trynna go for a damage support style build

hybrid plover
#

if you're not playing havoc, you're fine honestly

#

havoc is literally the only place where you have to give a shit about something as micromanagy as the aura you pick

icy gulch
#

well i really really like survivalist

covert fable
#

@sonic kayak havoc?

icy gulch
#

but i also use high damage single shot weapons and that 5% i feel like does pretty well

hybrid plover
#

petition for fatshark to take blight out of the game btw

#

please just fucking take it out

atomic void
#

I got lights out ritural blight

sonic kayak
atomic void
icy gulch
#

does plasma have some kind of mechanic where allies do more damage to effected enemies?

icy gulch
#

oh ok

hybrid plover
#

again, it's not a bad node

#

it just isn't surv

icy gulch
#

field improv good? or just go with demo stockpile

hybrid plover
#

field improv is... really situational honestly

sonic kayak
#

I use it in Havoc sometimes

#

Otherwise yeah, situational and honestly? unneeded

hybrid plover
#

like it helps but with what it has to compete with, I usually don't take it

icy gulch
#

i don really have a problem with corruption and thats the only reason i would use it

sonic kayak
#

Then nah

Unless again, we're talking Havoc and we some some especially egregious shit like Blight

@tall torrent

hybrid plover
#

yeah it does

sonic kayak
#

I'd say it really picks up around 25

#

25 then to 30

hybrid plover
#

30-39 is harder than 40 lol

sonic kayak
#

Past 30, it gets worse but incrementally not suddenly

covert fable
hybrid plover
#

a bold choice my friend

icy gulch
#

i like the idea of marking enemies and getting a really big damage bonus, as well as teammates

sonic kayak
#

I mean, it's not bad

hybrid plover
#

just do not expect it to do much against carapace

sonic kayak
#

Long TTK against carapace but it's a decent weapon

i've always had problems with automatic weapons no matter the survival game.

as for the helbore, i can def see it being really good

i jus dont like it

I dont like charge mechanics much but helbore is solid

junior grail
icy gulch
#

Remember who you are, reject

#

question

#

So is melee just there to control hordes? I know there are weapons meant for specific things but is it worth it to have- nvm this game is so in depth

junior grail
#

Some melee can compensate for ranged weapons weakness and vice versa

junior grail
#

You may rely on ranged weapon for general shooting but need a high damage melee to break into heavier armoured enemies

calm shard
#

most of the meta ones currently are meta due to very high single target damage

icy gulch
#

see thats what i've been doin, i've been using ranged to deal with elite enemies while melee to help with hordes. but i really wanna use melee to deal with elite and guns on hordes. but i think on veteran i should keep it to where guns are for elite enemies

#

which leads me to think the combat shotgun is super good because you can engage at close and long range doing high single target damage while keeping a melee for hordes and trash

junior grail
#

I have one non meta build I like where I use Shredder Autopistol with Onslaught and Executioner Stance, melee can use Duelling Sword/Power Sword

icy gulch
#

i dont really understand automatic weapons. i have a hard time using them lol

junior grail

Slug Combat Shotty is great on Vet

Double Barrel Shotty too, makes you feel like Doom Slayer

that was like almost unplayable on veteran (skill issue)

#

voice of command doesnt effect allies? awww

covert fable
#

It gives them extra toughness

icy gulch
#

oh it doesnt regen it?

junior grail
#

It maxes out their toughness

#

So in a way yes, but instant, which is better

icy gulch
#

when i use it around allies it dont effect them at all

#

the blue bar?

#

didnt do nuffin

You need the skill that branches off voice of command

junior grail
#

The left subnode of the Ability

covert fable
#

Yes

icy gulch
#

ahhh

junior grail
#

The right one needs to be buffed a bit to be as good

little path
sonic kayak
junior grail
#

And exe stance needs to insta reload guns like in the past

little path
#

exe stances needs more than just that

junior grail
#

Whatchu suggest?

icy gulch
#

aimbot mechanic f it

copper mango
#

Quick question: If a have targeted an enemy with focus target and someone tags the same enemy does my focus target stacks still work?

junior grail
calm shard
#

unless they also have focus target (and more stacks than you do)

icy gulch
#

emperor 76

little path
#

Base duration 5s >10s and can be increased to 15
Always highlights for teammates
Always highlights small shooters
Increased reload speed by 1% per headshot kill up to 25%
Swapping to melee gives toughness and attack speed but consumes duration faster

#

This doesn't address the issue of like

#

exec stance generally only helping below average guns

#

and usually only helping with pumping out a shit load of damage into bosses

calm shard
#

the best exe stance guns are the helbore and bolter

#

that are far from below average

little path
#

but as a base quality of life changes? i woudl at least like to see those

#

those two are the main exceoption

calm shard
#

both use it to keep consistent 2 shots into havoc crushers

#

while also melting bosses

little path
#

you use helbore and bolter to delete bosses and crushers

calm shard
#

vraks IAG is also good with exe

#

but harder to use

little path
#

but IAG, autoguns etc

calm shard
#

exe stance gives Vraks a 1 shot headshot on gunners

little path
#

they do help with breakpoints but a little something extra would be nice

calm shard
#

very good for the ammo economy of the weapon and of course boss damage

#

laspistol is another good exe weapon

#

and also not a bad weapon

junior grail
#

My issue when taking Exe Stance is I don't have a toughness regen ability

calm shard
#

yeah

little path
#

Autoguns needs just need more help period

calm shard
#

exe fucks you out of your durability

#

I mean the vigilants and braced autos sure

#

only the semi auto vigilant is any good

#

braced autos are shit

#

infantry autoguns are okay

little path
#

ifantry are decent

calm shard
#

Vraks is like one of the best guns in the game. Agri is okay

#

Columnus sucks

little path
#

the other ones suck

calm shard
#

Graia vigilant is alright

#

Autopistol is good but not really on vet

little path
#

Vigiliant desperately needs a damage buff on non headshots

junior grail
#

I use SAP with Inspiring Barrage to maintain toughness lol. Not meta I know

little path
#

i understand they want it to be a precision weapon

little path
#

but not hitting someone in the head shouldn't deal fuck all

#

namely the burstfire ones

icy gulch
#

ooo i unlocked the boltgun

#

i will now uphold the will of the emperor

#

totally not a heretic

little path
#

Biggest thing I want is a counterpart talent to shocktrooper

#

ballistic weapons specific talent

junior grail
#

Headshots vs bodyshots on Headhunters feel like a whole mag of bullets difference

calm shard
#

or shocktrooper should just apply to all weapons

#

kinda no reason for it to exclude bullet weapons

little path
#

that would be the easy buff

#

but purely for the sake of my own need for something more interesting

#

I would prefer if there was a talent that gave ballistic weapons like

#

bleed on crit or something

icy gulch
#

so the voice of command revive aintreally good?

calm shard
#

no it's pretty bad

icy gulch
#

wait it adds more cooldown

#

45 seconds

#

EWWWWW

calm shard
#

hardly bad bodyshot damage

little path
#

wait that's the vraks aint' it?

calm shard
#

graia

#

the semi auto

little path
#

which one was the semi auto one again?

calm shard
#

graia

little path
#

try any of the burstfire ones for body shots

calm shard
#

still pretty okay

little path
#

wacky

#

try specifically the mutant

calm shard
#

why would you want to shoot a mutant

#

they have 4000 health and take triple melee damage

#

every gun looks like shit when shooting them

little path
#

really?

#

usually if I have my gun out I can kill them jsut fine

calm shard
azure narwhal
#

Thrusted into oblivion

#

PS moment

icy gulch
#

i am now going to do the big damage

azure narwhal
#

Yeees

calm shard
#

the problem vigilants have is they have absolutely garbage maniac damage

#

none of them can reliably kill specialist enemies

#

infantry lasguns have kind of the opposite problem where they only have really good maniac damage

#

and struggle to reach breakpoints into other health types

#

but I think Vigilants have the highest Flak ADM of any weapon in the game?

#

At 1.40 or something absurd like that

#

like it's one of very few ranged weapons that can one shot bodyshot both stalker types

icy gulch
#

if i could just get a sight for the boltgun i would be in mega love

Extended customization it's called

#

I think

calm shard
junior grail
#

I just call the by default colours, brown single, green double, blue triple

calm shard
little path
#

how far before they stop 1 shotting in the chest?

calm shard
#

about here

little path
#

makes sense

junior grail
#

What if you slap Specialist Damage perk on Vigils

junior grail
little path
#

I generally shoot shooters further away than that

icy gulch
#

yeah i probably will use a mod i gotta figure out how to mod tho

#

it isnt against tos?

little path
#

no

calm shard
#

mmm no here

#

oh shooters?

#

they have less health than stalkers

junior grail
icy gulch
#

imma try and find a lore friendly one

sonic kayak
calm shard
icy gulch
#

slaps an acog on it

little path

If you just want scopes then download only the customization one

sonic kayak
#

They pay attention to the mods, don't worry

junior grail
little path
icy gulch
#

putting a scope on my hammer 1 sec

little path
#

I swear I've shot shooters in the chest and they just don't die

calm shard
#

hits their limbs

junior grail
little path
calm shard
#

limbs have damage reduction if you shoot them

#

which I have always thought is insanely fucking stupid for a horde shooter

#

but a bodyshot will always one shot a scab shooter

little path
#

wild

junior grail
#

I remember in L4D the zombie is considered dead if an arm is blown off unless they are a mud zombie or smth

calm shard
#

hitting their arm has them barely live

junior grail
little path
#

that's the lore reason I believe

#

same with tau fire warriors

#

Idea is they use their pauldron to tank shots because they shoot with a shoulder pointed towards the enemy

junior grail
#

Fire Warriors actually make sense, they always shoot so one shoulder pad acts like a shield

calm shard
#

and of course if you have exe the bodyshot damage is silly

junior grail
#

I would say the Zakus from Gundam too but it feels like it's on the wrong side

little path
#

they're supposed to be constantly in this pose when shooting

junior grail
#

Jk jk I like Tau, especially Enclaves

calm shard
#

though y'know the fucking maniac damage is so bad

#

exe FT can't one shot headshot a flamer without a crit xd

junior grail
#

What if they add some armour on to Vigil like with Double Barrel Shotty?

#

Make it good against elites and Armoured but bad against maniacs and Infected

calm shard
#

that's how it works right now

#

it has good damage into flak/unarmored and abysmal maniac damage

#

shit it's even alright into carapace if you get crits just like the IAGs are

#

it's just for a precision like this having bad maniacs damage is a dealbreaker

#

since the whole fucking point of the weapon archetype is sniping specials and elites

#

and also you can use the Agri infantry autogun that just kinda does what the vigilants do but better

hollow ibex
#

Yeah vigils really get cucked

calm shard
#

minus the crazy bodyshot damage into flak

#

hilarious

#

still does okay even on a "normal" build

#

(trench fighter drill dropped for deadshot to simulate stacked reciprocity)

junior grail
#

I can call the obviously worthless maniac damage worthless and it'll balance out

tropic notch

#

Headhunters are just a better infantry las

#

Speaking of

calm shard
#

infantry las actually have good maniac damage

tropic notch
#

Don’t they work better if your target is far away?

#

I thought the damage was less up close

#

Well I remember someone saying something about it

calm shard
#

yes all las weapons have reverse damage falloff

#

doing more damage at long range

#

except the laspistol

tropic notch
#

I also remember seeing a hav40 run with exe stance and mmf

calm shard
#

which just has normal damage falloff

tropic notch
#

Using the infantry las

#

Watched some then clicked off of it for a lore vid

calm shard
#

this is iib the light one

#

VII consistently one shots

#

takes several shots on a normal build but the gun has so much goddamn ammo that's not that big of a deal

#

infantry las is like mid tier

#

misses a few one shot breakpoints but has high fire rate and ammo so it's still okay

covert fable
#

anyone have experience using the zarona revolver in havoc? how does it compare to the plasma ?

tall torrent
#

also it has better 1 taps than plasma but still require crit-headshots

covert fable
hybrid plover
#

yeah

#

it just doesnt have a big ammo reserve to begin with

covert fable
#

This is tragic

#

I was thinking to try it with power sword

#

To help conserve the ammo a bit but

#

🫥

hybrid plover
#

I mean, if you lean on your melee enough, it works.

covert fable
#

Yeah to like it balance it out

But that wall of crushers is scary as a vet

Other than that, you can block every single one of the spawns attacks

So attack him after he misses that grab?

I'll test this out tomorrow

tall torrent
tropic notch
#

It’s fun tho

tall torrent
hybrid plover
#

it's not a good idea to dodge back because the range is deceptively long and even if it looks like you're out of range of the arm from your perspective, you can still get grabbed

#

that video shows it well. dodge preemptively to the right when you see the wind up so you're never in the hitbox to begin with when they do go for the grab

calm shard
#

and can easily outlast your dodge even if you dodge the correct direction if your dodge gets caught on something

The Great Vet Review Bomb

empty aurora
#

Wait what the fuck

austere mica
#

When they got their weapon nerfed from gamebreaking to meta

#

And had to learn how to play the game

empty aurora
#

Power cycler used to have seven swings what the hell

austere mica
#

It was either 7 or 5

late jungle
#

i dunno i thought ps had like

#

3 base swings or something

#

and then power cycler upped that even more

empty aurora
#

Power sword currently only has one powered swing at base

barren cave
#

Plasma gun is not good for doing the ws penance, you need ranged weakspot hits for it with ws active

empty aurora
#

Which feels like a whole lot of useless

marble ocean
#

It is

austere mica
#

Bistol also does

barren cave
austere mica
#

I think dbarrel also works but it’s less consistent at killing

empty aurora
#

Only getting one powered swing just feels awful to use, power cycler feels absolutely mandatory

barren cave
#

Hitting headshots with plasma is hard, skill issue KEKW_ogryn

austere mica
#

It’s a point and shoot weapon

It requires less skill than most other point and shoot weapons because it has a 45 round mag

this is the one

Yeah just do that with a revolver or bolt pistol or something

barren cave
#

its kinda weird? what does ws have to do with critical weakspot hits

late jungle
#

that doesnt seem that bad

#

its kinda how ur meant to be playing with ws anyways .

empty aurora
#

Sounds like a great reason to use my beloved revolver

late jungle

kill things with sword swap to revolver shoot specialists kill things with sword

austere mica

also is that penance for only for ranged

Smokes are also good

It would be so cool if they gave vet more than one ability

ive got my taxe mark 7 and zarona ready

I’d honestly recommend agrivolver for weapon spec

barren cave

oh agri?

austere mica

Snipes pretty close to the same with confirm crits and can do crushers if you need to

Also funny ass unyielding damage
