Arby hitting everything with the truth nuke build
We need this, but, with the old dogxplosion + puncture memes
the turn off the game and make me leave every single time I'd even remotely see the dog?
that level of game breaking shit
I never got to use dogxplosion + puncture or dog bleed(when it was omega ultra busted) lol
I was on my down time from gaming during that era
Lethal proximity isn't really bugged, it does exactly what it says
Which is ironically pretty rare and more accurate than most blessings
Yep
I love the fact I like the las guns in lore but the only one that feels Decent to use, is getting to the point of frustration being the Recon,
Anything doing exactly what it says in a fatshark game is a rare thing and should be cherished
Funny joke was puncture+doggo boom wasn't as OP as what came after.
what came after lol
dog bleed melting everything
Doggo pounce max bleeding anything.
and having dog damage buffs apply to the bleeding damage
1.5 sec CD.
makes me weep knowing they didn't even consider toning down how overpowered that class is
Huh? no shit?
(So in like 8 months)
its almost like its been common knowledge about how powerful it was for- since Day 1
How long did it take for SOtT to get any sort of nerf
I'm waiting for the eventual nerfs as well tbh
Yes
And that class was more borked than arbites could be by quite a bit
I had time to learn elven axe against dense hordes in that time
Maybe you need a better vet build then
nah, arby is weak... they need buffs
Why bother playing vet?
The humble recon lasgun:

zealot and psyker having the recon:
But not shock trooper
Fingerwag emoji
So true let shock trooper work on bullet weapons as penance this is so sad
I am not defending the class; i suggest that despite obvious powercreep something on the players end could be better; i don’t feel like i do certain jobs better as arby than vet & vice versa
If you do then maybe look internally not externally for the source of the problem 
Recon las is great, I love it I'm glad it works, I just. Kinda frustrated its best used with Infernus

Rework when 
Where where you when hotshot was kill
Like this? :3
Zealot can do this as well lol, but, easier
Yeah but thats mortis
I know
ogryn can fuckin do that there
I just find it funny zealot does it easier
We should have betted on vet nerf directly or indirectly.
charmed reload... just never stop shooting until you run out of ammo...

I have a buddy who is addicted to gunlugger ogryn BECAUSE of mortis trials
Its an issue
Cant rven fucking play with him anymore
5 CRIT string so you get 5 free bullets from twins
Charmed reload
Lucky shot
The ammo bonus
Hold m1 until match ends
I found deathdealer gunlugger amusing
You need death dealer for it to actually be possible

Whichever bonus gives you free shots
the +30% crit on the 1st 25% of the mag makes charmed reload make you never run out of ammo in the mag until you run out of ammo
even when there are no enemies
He also loves attempting to fucking crash my pc
box of hurt?
I prefer the frag bomb cause you can get the bubble effect
Don't blame him

Gunlugger just feels good
I don't either but he lost the ability to fucking play
Someone really said full auto shotgun

db shotty is that in the mortis trials
well
semi-auto
A full auto shotgun exists. Not in Darktide, but i know a game where this is the case.
Yeah hes not playing
Hes enjoying himself

He starts moping every time he runs out of ammo and is dogshit at melee now
N7 Piranha, a full auto shotgun.
He's a real ogryn irl
Mortis Trials teach people bad habits.
Just let him die, say 50% ammo back.
Profit.
You guys refill before next rescue.

Bad “sweat level” habits.
I love me a G who has fun.
One time I barely even shot my own lasrifle because there was a guy who was having so much fun with his recon las that I really just enabled him.
THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
He basically solo’d it. Got all the ammo, we were just there to enable him. And put our flashlights on baddies.
i hate gunlugger ogryns cause they are too lore accurate, yesterday had 2 that would just stand there m1 taped down and i had to verbally shout at them to keep them moving forwards
Perfect.
like my slab in coherency, please, my body is too frail to push forwards please
Stay behind them. 8) they soak bullets.
And eventually they run out of ammo and start using their clubs. Or their guns as clubs. It is the Ogryn way.
It's true see above
Wait. Shield Ogryns aren’t supposed to taunt and tank now?
People realize the shove with a shield is an actual taunt. Right?
Or is it some randos who don’t know that? Like the guy telling me mob armor is just cosmetic.
Legit question. How is one “supposed to” play a shield Ogryn? Since taunt and soaking damage isn’t it.
you taunt and kill things
shield ogryn gameplay is spam heavies and kill everything
its boring but effective
No need to soak damage, keep thumping
Shield plant is for DH emergencies
And occasionally gunner related emergencies
You need a talent for it.
Sounds like I will certainly not be playing Ogryn past level 3 anymore then.
If I wanted a bully club I’d equip one.
the shield is a half ton slab of steel and a heavy hit reflects that very well
think of it this way, new ogryn has insane dmg output especially in melee
you funnel everything to you then shred them
it feels good
Why? Shields great 
that hasn't been the case for a long time
ive been playing for a year and the only times i see people planting shields is if there's a dameonhost
Why block when you can kill?
shield plant is for when a magical horde of shooters manifest and you slam your shield down to not drain all your stamina in 3 seconds, the other use is to rally your team during elevator rides by repeatedly thumping it to the beat of we will rock you
ogryn is just too good at killing to waste time blocking
The more I am on here the more ways I learn to suck the fun out of my Darktide.
Sorry. I’ll continue being that Heresy Ogryn who plays a tank.
Not actually sorry.
and i wll continue tossing nades in your general direction and thank you for clumping the horde
Shove taunt is only possible with Attention Seeker talent
i mean play the way you want to play
lol
taunt and kill
you asked a legit question and people gave u a legit answer
I thought that was the plan.
although i dont see how planting a shield is fun
if you hold block you do no damage
but you play the way u want to play king 
Frame 1 parrying overheads thats it
ah the gong tech
you know what respect
people here are like AAAAAAA IM BEING OUTDMGED AAAAAAAA meanwhile this absolute chad wnats to enable others to deal dmg
I find it fun when my team mows down the maulers I just knocked over and am now tanking with no damage.
My team seems to find it fun too.
They’re probably just not as good at Darktide as you guys.
They don't need to be as I've mulched all the heretics with my shield 
Everything is taunted, staggered and bleeding to death
the dmg on it is insane i just wish it had an actual moveset 
spam heavy 10x epic gameplay
you can knock them over and keep attacking?
i don't understand your argument
blocking just for the sake of blocking is pointless
shield does a fuckload of damage
while knocking everything on the ground
pushattack does decent damage actually
true
Too bad
H1 spam
Im guessing now hotshot is fixed its not worth using
Useless now much.
I mean without the unintended feature it was incredibly mediocre at best
yeah ive just been using surgical and sustained fire for the longest time
its just sometimes fun to try new things
We’re not here to have fun!
We are here to play at the highest difficulties only with the most numerically efficient theorycraft builds.
Why else would you play a game with a vast variety of levels and weapons.
bully club is legitimately just insane
i spent the past month pretty much pickaxe only, switched to bully club yesterday to help a friend climb and it made the pickaxe I'd mastered look like a joke by comparison
and it actually has a fun moveset
its the ultimate light spam stick
u can play what you want man
its just some stuff doesnt work the higher u go
pushattack single target combo, heavy light sweep combo, slap
You play a game with vast variety to theory craft to your best playstyle at which point you join a game to have fun and see two ogryn rumblers in your team. :)
Wait until you try the ol' slap and clap 
I like rumblers. They pulp baddies in a hilarious shower of gore.
it's not about builds or theorycrafting
holding block is doing nothing
when I started this game I thought the idea was to use FNP with shield to be even tankier 
sadly FNP is just useless
Even more than anyone else
Idk, the capacity to survive more and so being more aggressive with your positioning isn't that bad if you ask me
the way it requires an extra node just so you have a way to consistently get the stacks bad is bad
and the fact it provides 0 offensive capabilities is also very bad
or rather, 0 damage talents
It's very slept on but most people are more interested in the damage
You don't need it if you aren't stupid and decisive
also most of the keystone is dead because the toughness replenishment is only for coherency iirc
One easy Hotshot fix would be to make it give the "cleaves through armour" attribute
Delete entire stacked crusher waves
Not anymore iirc
I don't think FNP is bad on its own, but compared to Forceful it's sad
and also Heavy Hitter is just so good
not anymore
It's not, and honestly? you don't really get penalized for taking it over FNP
forceful is the evolution of FNP, execution order is the evolution of disrupt destiny, and Terminus Warrant is a regression of Weapon Specialist lel
Between all of your DR nodes, plus the TDR from HH, plus NHF, you already get a lot of DR passively
I like playing orgyn but i also like my fps to stay and not have a panic attack everytime i press left click or throw a nade
and your inherent 40% TDR
being tankier is never bad
but compared to all the damage you're missing out, it's bad in this case
HH is also giga cleave or giga stagger
I don't think the bully club has good cleave on its own
I don't think it needs much cleave, considering how much it staggers enemies
Only thing I'd consider cleave for is Rampage tbh
@tall torrent for both helbore mk III and mk iv, is there any benefit running, say, elite damage over unarmoured damage? Or would it be better to stick to unarmoured?
That shit is annoying
horde clear is not that great in havoc, imo
stagger doesn't kill
But light spam of bleed kills everything anyway, and you can hold a line like nobody's business
Team can shoot to their hearths desires
There is always at the back of my mind the arguement of "Why kill if they just respawn again, surely there is a limit of X on how many enemies can be out at once, so staggering theortetically should be better than a straight up kill"
But my eyes glaze over just trying to compartmentalize how that plays out in truth
Question: how inferior is Heavy attack Vs light spam on the bully club? Percent wise
Fight a crusher in the Psykhanium and time yourself
Light spam will kill one in like 4 hits iirc
level 33 veteran on xbox runs up to me just as I finish making my loadout and invites me and the psyker next to me to join his maelstrom
cute
Mutant Roar
Will have to do it this evening with a horde of maulers/crushers
I go for impact because of my stunlock builds + more ogryn weapon cleave profiles aren't that spectacular anyways, except for the picks which are their own category, and the Shield's H2 which has it's own infinite cleave
The only thing that noticably slows me down is Rampage
At the same time most of your melee are already good at stagger
So which way Atoman Big Man
Isn’t max level 30?
im using a mod that shows what your level would be above 30
But it saves you & your team; with no stagger you get overwhelmed & you lose
I love how we’re putting down people for being so low level one needs a mod to see it. L
absolutely
there's only so much DPS you can dish out before your space is overtaken
Tbh; there is very little difference in horde clear between auric & havoc
chaf does not matter; what comes with it does
It's always right to judge people based on unreliable not base game features
max is 30 yea but theres a pseudo-level system after
Thats why Final Toll modifier is considered the hardest and for a good reason
if I could I'd never play that modifier again
Well. Those scrubs better get on meeting those pseudo expectations that the designers didn’t give players in the first place.
Its havoc clearance level; base level is 30 & it stands for how good you can make your gear, how many talent points you get & what weapons you unlocked nothing more
pseudo-level as stated
Havoc Clearance is not a pseudo-level
god emperor are they rage-baiting me
I think they are referring to true level shenanigans
Maybe?
I’m not i’m dead serious

Helby can't be good at everything
It'll break the game
Oh yeah gotta hit up path
Eh
To be precise. The base game used to have one number. Level 30. This now indicates what kind of features of the game and class you have access to.
Path will probably see it
oh man that blessing is dead now
Maybe more breakpoint formulas would help clarify.
Or fat shark could remove all weapons except for the duelling sword and plasma.
That’d be way better. And constantly stick it on auric.
You will level after that, but that is not shown ingame, a mod is used to show what level you would be. Simply indicating the time you spent with that character.
Higher True level is usually associated with more skill.
Not always.
Havoc Clearance level will replace your normal level once you have completed a Havoc Mission.
It will show your highest cleared Havoc Mission.
Thus it can go up to 40.
A higher Havoc Level is also usually associated with more skill.
Not always.
Think I’ve played one havoc.
To gauge if someone is invited to a Havoc mission True Level and Havoc Clearance rank may be used.
In addition to titles, as stated above.
Like the ASS title? All skill?
In a perfect world, yes.
lol.
Sad truth is, many people cheesed it by avoiding the challenge.
nah i have true survivor and im nowhere near being good

And thus it is considered void in terms of representation.
i'd say im mid at best
In fact, most ASS are literally ass.
ASS > No title
I didn't get into like any havocs until I got ASS
It was really annoying
i got my ASS by sweating for five games in a row
i more than earned it 
They only want me for my ASS
Not always; many good players don’t put even a ‘reject’ title on
The very widespread phenomena of people leaving when the slightest thing goes wrong is unfortunately not limited to any difficulty or title.
I mean if they have havoc 40 then yeah
But if you're starting out lol
Titles mean what one person attributes and sees in that title.
Best is to block them; trash belongs in a bin not in a good lobby
I am proud of my Auric Storm Survivor when i had it, because i knew i have gone through the challenge.
What others think i don't really care about.
Same here
Same goes for True Survivor.
I will not brag, i will not think higher of myself because of it.
You’re an ASS and i like you

For someone who doesn’t care we sure have opinions on how other people ought to play.
I will do whatever it takes to save someone if i can.
That is an opinion.
Everyone is free to voice their opinion.
Forcing your opinion on someone else, that is the problem.
I say, Mortis Trials teach bad habits.
That is a statement.
Not a declaration of "you must play this or that way"
No judgement there at all.
And an opinion 
If you want to go into an Auric Maelstrom with your Recon Lasgun and hold down the trigger till your powercell goes empty, be my guest.
“Bad habits” isn’t at all a value judgement you think?
Of course it is a judgement.
Wasting ammo on nonsense chaff is objectively a bad thing.
Yet, you can continue to do so.
If we would be in a situation where no one is allowed to voice their opinion, we'd have no discussion about it.
I bet you’re fun at parties.
We would never get anywhere.
Basically; being bad in a game & making bad decisions is a choice; same for getting better 
If i'd go to parties, i surely would.
That was a joke.
🥁
If we aren't allowed to have opinions and voice them.. where would we be now?
HOLLY MOLLY! tried the experiment and with bleed the light spam is 36% better than heavy, but without bleed its 68% better in favour of light spam! really heavy attacks feel left behind
You may not disagree with any of what i said. And that is fine.
That is freedom of speech and thought.
Agree to disagree.
I didn’t expect “freeze peach” in this. Grats.
Freedom? In my Warhammer?
We both are; trust me compadre - seen such a comment of yours plenty of times and with all due respect ppl who typed/spoken such words were… not so great but it is what it is; dunno how you’re faring, can always and willingly so find out 
And while we are at it, iam going to fire back now.
Yay!
I am serious btw; wanna play we can play
So long as a discussion is established and there will be no hissy fits (like some ppl i had a pleasure of interacting with)
The way you have been responding to me indicates that you don't seem to have anything meaningful and productive to say in response.
There's a reason it's so "beloved" by everyone
Remember, the number one enemy of your average Darktide player: Effort
The 2 most sauceless weapons
This would be my 13th reason
I get that it's a light spam weapon but GOLLY heavy attacks should not lag this hard!
But it is what it is. You have your opinion and i have mine.
If i wanted to eat pasta alone i would but i want me sause 
Wait until you try the Mk 2's hidden attack with extra finesse 
Special (Or PA iirc) > double light
Is it an actual dish?
You mean the slap-punch-wack combo? It is one of my favourite ones
If you do a second light attack to the punch you do a weird overhead
It’s spaghetti in light oil, with pepper flakes and a lot of garlic.
If I recall right. That’s how I make it.
Yeah, that's the wack, it lobotomizes enemies on pair of the high cc combo of the slap punch
Actually quite enjoyable if you ask me
You said it, "slap-punch-wack" 
Still, would want that Heavy attacks weren't this outpaced
But but, ASS is more luck.
That's the "thy are nail" combo, super satisfying to wack some fool with it
worth the 30 minutes of boredom
Car-ring
anyone with ASS i assume is going to either A) Run off and die,
or B)
Watch their friend go down and then Die,
Or C) Leave in the first 30 Seconds of a Match on Auric because didn't dodge a Crusher overhead
That is the reputation that the title has, unfortunately.
Deserved
The title does not deserve it.
Because it's not really a difficult title to get anymore.
Or someone who used to be crazy at scurrying and skittering around to usually be hard to kill even on vet while everyone else murdered a path.
@red portal i beg to differ, seeing some of the players that run around in those missions.
Stares at arby.
I ran some maelstroms with book zealot and knife and my reaction the entire time was "where are all the enemies I'm not even able to get uptime on my blazing piety."
I did it on vet and zeal tbh. Just wanted to ensure the last win with too many wounds and until death, lul.
Nothing wrong with being ASS 
Speaking of leaving after going down from a Crusher overhead
Had that happen to me in H40 like 3 times now
That is just hilarious
One guy got launched off the map from a PlOgryn and he left 
I have havoc forged and true survivor but not ASS yet( I am one game off)
I just run my trusty Poxbreaker
I earned that shit through my own sweat and tears, why hide it 
He better count himself lucky, can't count the times my own team sent me to a barrel space program to my death
I'm kinda tempted to just never get the title.
To be fair, I play mostly premade. Ppl seeing my build and lvl is nearly an instant reject anyway.
Throw the last win?
For me, I generally go by "one of each class" for my H40s
I don't really care about clearance and build
I wouldn't need to go that far just never play maelstrom's agian
That way I can never accidentally get it lol
Except Arbies, I haven't seen a good one in H40 yet
I know a good Arbitrator for H40.
I have gotten accepted to every party finder lobby I join
Points at Chaos.
Who?
Honestly, the metrics to define if a payer is garbo is not even their builds, I saw good builds being piloted like hot trash
@grizzled pebble Points.
Amazing build, people just are TERRIBLE at piloting it while surviving
Don't even know the guy
Oh, right, you aren't on psyker mains much...
Yeah I'm a Zealot main so
Sparkhead dude, quite good, but didn't see him as arby
Ainz plays a lot of arbites
I assume it's better because Arby is busted
Dash or book?
He does it for boss damage. We only swapped cos things wasn't working out and dog is still better than me at damage.
I just need to slam that Disco ball.
Same as a machine or car IRL; Just because it has a big price tag or fun stats on paper doesn't mean you know how to handle it
And let puppo run around.
All the fixes just gonna make Arby more busted (also, Karien, you aren't better than dog but we love ya anyway)
Impossible
Oh, good day Mr. SanctionedPsyker!
Lies.
I dont know any arbysbeefsandwich
Agent is a mythomaniac like Karien and her carry skills?
@sonic kayak @steep flower Him.
That is his Arby btw, FortheMaster is his Zealot.
Me?
What did I win?
Cor

But you can have a cookie.
Latrine duty
🍪
I'll take it, thanks
Cor?
Been there, not so bad
Ogryn dictionary: cor = cool
I have me shovel for it
It's British English for basically "oh no shit?"
I love how Br't'sh slang is automatically Ogryn slang 
But not the rhetorical no shit, like the excited or interested no shit
Oh.
We all learn by watching the ogryns
does this affect kills
Coherency regen only
Havoc has more mass -> horde clear is worse
that yellow mod also makes mobs harder to cleave, right?
aww dangit
I fared much better with cleave on HH than stagger
I'm doing a bad idea class rn will report back to share how it goes
surely this will work out
0.5 more corehency toughness per second 
I think it doesn't change mass
Rip

What did I just see?
heresy made a build
And I thought my builds were suspect...
no grenade regen 💀
I told you Karien, you are WAAAAAY above the curve
Okay so they not only nerfed it big time. They fixed the bug that was the only reason anybody ever used it to begin with
Nope if you consider stagger
No, my oggy builds will send you off Gloriana.
being send off Gloriana is a skill issue.
I mean it will make you pen dump DS5 yourself off.
it will.. what?
I think you played as i was an arby; Am i a joke to you?!

@steep flower Apparently you are.
Penetration dump Dueling Sword 5. With WS stack or IJ stacks.
its owrking
@unreal nova Luckily i don't use that weapon.
Ohhh I get what you were pinging me for then, you were replying to me 
tbh? Forgot 
Yes.
I was using that chainsword build
@steep flower You are unremarkable... 
I just mean funni way of commiting sudoku!
@unreal nova I won't do that.
When you see my fantastic oggy build...
I have 1 more build with nuncio you haven’t seen 
9 stamina oggy
You know my oggy builds.
No cause in order to use it i have to install audio plugin mods
I see.
@unreal nova On Gloriana i let everyone else have their fill before i advance. Usually that means all barrels are gone already.
I just meant choosing to dodge yourself off that see the horror of +9 stam, CDR, Stam Regen and Toughness. And this talent. Also, it's Slab and kickback.
Oh... @steep flower HALP.
🤔
What is it my child?
this would work better if the servers would fucking cooperate
I usually choose not to play on the day the updates/patches come out; saves ones nerves
Not getting a traumatised reaction...
Thats Eve we’re talking about; hes from the land of the stern; honestly not surprised
Only Pinocchio jokes get him
I'm sure there's something not optimal about it but it just looks like "taunt but with more TDR for some reason"
You are correct
LOL
Wot.
It has ALL the stamina related buffs one can take
the only damage I took was the servers freaking out into two consecutive trappers
Ask eve he’ll tell you more 
@steep flower Now now, iam not Radovid.
oh power DI crashed
is there a way to see how much toughness I regened
okay second run now with this lasgun
Look, you get 4 free hedbonks... More technically just patking.
Radovid?
He probably dead tho
Oh. Still confused.
As in, the Pinocchio bit.
Just some weird ramblings he came up with.

who could bring themselves to betray Vernon BROche for that slimey PoS Dijkstra
Fare thee well Hot Shot!
@grand perch Exactly.
I was foing well
but it appears this fuckass arbites doesn't know how to play so I got flamered into a corner
@grand perch Also..i have to admit, i really like Emhyr var Emreis.
on another note, this thing kinda ass
Why's your xiv hitting for 90 damage
?
wait what the hell
I dunno it went back to 141 though
???????
Yeah exactly what I was asking
Good old Flakiacs
as is written 🙏
god I wish the infantry had no visual recoil
I reminded myself of what I hated about it and I ended up turning off screenshake
Yeah I've felt the Lasguns shouldn't have much if any actual recoil
Leave that for the autoguns
And Bolters
If they need something to 'visually' disturb your vision to represent it firing, can just up the flash from the muzzle cause it is a laser flash
not only did they ad recoil
there's a FUCKLOAD of screenshake too
which I would say is arguably worse than the recoil itself
Yeaaaaaaaaaah, agreed
These are basically super power laser pointers (not exactly but close), so there should be little to no visual stuff like that.
I get it, its to represent gun go bang
But we have that with a ton of other stuff
@tame lodgewould u put laspistol above or below infantry las
same perks I'm assuming?
Unless you're going for bosses
iirc it's stab for the 2 and mob for the other right
thank you wise higui
Also doesn't it have way better overall dodge and movespeed so its better for weaving in and out of hordes in those situations?
It's basically pocket las-rifle but better
both are bad for ur wrists 
Anyone else getting a CTD using executioner stance?
OI! Not weird; uncanny - lets be civil if we gonna dismiss ppl okay?!
now that I think of it
they could probably just give the las weapons a more aggressive stance
jojo stance
hey guys, could anyone suggest the tankiest veteran build, for getting auric storm survivor
i respect the plan of gearing up to deal with it on your own but it's honest to god 20x easier with a squad
I will look for a party but was curious to see what the most tanky build would be
veteran in general is not that tanky, but 1x21% hp
- 2x17% toughness
power sword (to make up for the +3 stamina curio) and a bolter
shout
hide in smokes
👍🏼 that ^
what about keystone
and the shout left keystone for +50 extra gold toughness
Focus target prob and snipe with plasma
Close Order Drill
Gain ×89% TDR (3 stacks)
Covering Fire
Killing an enemy with a ranged attack provides
allies within 5m of that enemy 15% of their max
toughness and +10% T.dmg for 3s.
does that count?
i think that's about it...
ty!
but like Exo said Iron Will is mandatory
it's free real estate
hey they fixed the Arbiter keystones
Anybody knows how scoreboard mod decides which kills to make whose, for its kill counters? Like, is it who dealt the final blow, or who dealt the most damage, or some other method?
why do i feel like those people that clap when their plane lands...
i feel dumb for wanting to do it xD
final blow
or dot effect that takes them down
I see, ty
anytime dude
They dont stack
i want to use the sapper shovel VII, i want to use it for horde and armored enemies. does it need rending+ on the talent menu. as it already has high penetration, would it make much of a different? im also just trying to figure out when to use rending+ or % for melee weapons and when not to use it for other
@steep flower Shovel Expert required
@tall torrent
there is no helbore in Ba Sing Se
@tame lodge Reddit is fun for the best hot takes of people. Like Psyker being bad.
the helbore propaganda posting will continue until there are none left to hear it
Yeah
lowk it's a fine take when talking about lower skill levels cuz you can't expect them to be able to dodge everything
Any broken Veteran Builds other that magdumping bolter, plasma or boltpistol grenadier ?
Where is my Recon? 😞
im sometimes convinced Reddit lives in a different universe of this game than we do
Just posted this 😞
First mistake
No autogun stuff ?
Vraks5 is the dps monster
Autogun Deez 😈
ah sorry
I mean with enough whineing maybe we'll just keep getting buffs to the hellbore randomly just like the Devils Claw
I honestly don't care what Vets take tbh
I just wish they FUCKING KILL THE SPECIALISTS
Columnus became Vraks

Buff everything but the actual problem


😭
And soon they'll "nerf" the dueling sword by giving it devil claws only gimmick
hahahaha
crying
Quite funny to see
This
Ay
I can show ya everything in a moment, coming home 
alrighty!!! thank you very much!
Dueling sword and Helbore.

what of it
Dueling sword isn't the greatest idea to complement something like the Helbore tbh
Plasma, definitely.
The Ds4, outperformed, the power sword?
Piss sword is outperformed by any melee that doesn't need to be activated every 3 swings
.
Thats what I'm saying like. It's all single target.
Does 'Keep their heads down' achieve any supression breakpoints? if no; use born leader 
Hordes can be a nuisance tho
You think the DBshotgun + DishonestSword are the best pair? Feels that both compliment eachother quite well
With a dueling sword
what's killing me is being overtaken by rushing armor and ragers I can't kill fast enough with the Helbore
and DS4 has that good stab that interrupts both
soon to be parry
It does

on who
SOON(TM)
What
gunners in general flee more consistently
knofe or ds are prob the best you just need them to reposition and survive
this^
@hollow wadi I'm back! https://discord.gg/K2nkCgwg
There was a leak of DS nerfs, one of the changes was removing the special for a parry like the Devil claw blades
you gotta rely on your team to hordeclear though
Prob not a good idea in random games
havoc theres atleast always someone on that job so its fine there
yes dude I need a horde clear melee when I have a inferno staff psyker and a rumbler ogryn
Unless you run a DBarrel shotgun and you also do housekeeping
It's always good to have one good single target and good horde clear
well this is specifically talking about helbore ds build
I pair it with the mk5
DS4 and frags and teammates are good enough horde clear, the other benefits of it outdo the benefit of a pure horde clear weapon
Even as a safety stick the DS delivers
Ds4 I sleep
I'm not playing Vet for the melee
I have a build like that, it's disgustingly safe and can hordeclear for days
CHAINAXE 
agile on ds just makes you basically invincible against horde too
Actually; do try chainaxe with that build; you'll have nice single target
Agile on Vet specifically is so good
Agile tac axe is amazing
that requires sacrificing BM or Headtaker </3
Teammates can do the horde clear if I can kill all the specialists that would stop them from horde clearing
The last thing I want to do as a Vet is pull out my melee to kill poxwalkers
just how I believe the class works best
I use combat knife with Helbore
yeah it works the same you just use the mobillity to get back to team
I feel that's better just because the knife actually does have the means to horde clear when you need it to
True
been a while since I've had such a toxic 1000k+ true level be this toxic
reported him
sure i just explain shovels
wut
Shovel lecture with popop
@crimson wyvern What went wrong with him
Generalist >
Two true levels, 80, 111 respectively picked up both grims on the mission. The psyker that was true level 1800 was upset with this, despite him playing forward and not with anyone and not dying/killing everything.
Not fully aware why this is an issue for someone thats simply better than everyone else with no need for health as pysker
I was being quiet as true level 201 vet and just outburst when mission was over
he let both of them die at the end by not destroying the cannisters at the end of dark communinion till they both died
Well...the issue is generally that Grimoires add corruption over time.
He never fell below his half health
Hold.
?
Okay.
What i wanted to say was.
They picked up grims and that adds corruption.
Meaning, not only do they endanger themselves, but also the others.
More corruption is higher risk of just getting oneshot, exspecially when you don't have Until Death like a Zealot.
HOWEVER
That does not justify such a reaction.
It isn't surprising that the Psyker's the one spazzing out honestly.
I'll be real. Like I get the risk of having a grimoire. But being that high level like. What reason is there to be this mad lol
I don't...I cant...Why would I take the game that seriously at that-
Knife Gremlin took the words out of my mouth
what more do you want when you have the world
If you don't want randoms taking grims don't play with randoms
I'm level 200 on all 4 of my classes and 33 on the policeman, and I already feel like I've done everything
someone 4 times than on one class and still that serious about not dying
my god
Does he run book?
No stealth zealot he speedruns
I know one who's 7.8k lol
Also usually a stealth zealot but he dips into Fury sometimes.
OH I should have also said
That Psyker dude in dark communion, in the ambush room and the chaos spawn spawned, he ran ahead forward and waiting in the elevator not interacting with the team or boss letting us have to kill it only till I realized what he was doing and brought the boss over to him in the elevator
Just completely toxic play all around
Average psyker
What was this auric maelstrom
?
Not Maelstrom just Auric, High Intensity Shock Troop iirc
I immediately turned on the new button to disable battle for tertium so
What.
On a shock troop
But like I wouldn't mind if someone grabbed grims in aurics.
THAT'S EVEN WORSE
Nah this psyker is trolling.
It's like I can walk through a non maelstrom no problem with grims.
He definately was not suffering lmao
Purge staff and every dog pack was his, all specials etc
I already saw this before
elite saves the need for superiority complex on IV
hotshot now only works on ranged weapon's attacks
doesn't apply to melee atks
why is the mkv helbore considered to be better than the rest of its variants? new to this weapon, going to build it soon
one of the german twins
just block and ignore
IIIa and IV are considered the better variants atm due to breakpoint advantages
oh really? i see
one more thing
how does the mk VIc recon lasgun hold?
i need funny green weapon for my funny green cadian
XII is peak but blue
pretty strong
debatably stronger than XII
I still think it's one of the better blessing picks
cuz IV allows u to kebab most low mass elites
and kill 2 in a single shot
If only there was better options
but if looking for dps prob sustained fire/WoF is best now

what about shovel, it's the only weapon on vet i have no experience with as of yet. the MkIII kind of took my interest the most so far
gaslighting tier of melee weapons
hmmm
does the assault chainsword deserve the shade it gets, i see a similar response to it sometimes
but i mean... vet without assault chainsword is like pizza with nothin
As a big fan of the Xiiig
I'm going to say it's overhated
But I can not say it's top tier
atp i think people just don't seem to like chainswords in general xd. talked down on the eviscerator, but after a day's practice it's goddamn great
just complicated
at least, compared to most
i'll give it a shot
what do you make of the other variant
(it's green soooo)
and i like the cloth handle strap, good design on this
I don't remember exactly what it has over the Xiiig
But I know it's pretty simple
Just heavies for hordes
Rev heavy for anything bigger
neat
i'll give that a shot than, thank you both
planning to use this on the side, just needs mastering now
i've mained boltgun for way too long
brain fried with that
irrelevant, too low dmg
so I just unloaded full bolter mag into a line of elites on Rolling Steel and crashed
reconnected
did the same
and crashed AGAIN
error about buff list
lol
imo worst melee in the game
if you are trying to kill literally anything that is not a poxwalker with it it is going to struggle
it is quite tragic
The problem with the chainsword is what do you do when multiple Carapace enemies are on top of you?
It’s ok on like ONE build lol
For aurics
is it really that bad? i mean, my chainsword isn't even built, just has the right dump stat and it takes 2 revs on head for crushers
the evisceration process is unsafe for sure but you're not dead locked onto it
hmm can't say for certain though
yea the problem is the 2 rev
ur stuck in animation
while 6 ragers and 2 crushers swing at u
fair, i guess zealot is diff story
with eviscerator there i just fotf to instakill and skip waiting
and it's spammable cause zealot
i can see how it's super hard to pull off here
which is unfortunate because it's a really sweet weapon
then again, perhaps in tangent with frags
throw one out, knock down cara horde, eviscerate away
(but this is obviously not consistent)
@tame lodge what do you think? you have tried this in practicality quite often. how would the pack of elites be approached?
doesn't kill carapace enemies quick enough to be safe given the stagger duration
and the weapon itself has no option to stagger multiple ragers at the same time
How long does it take to do those 2 revs?

yeah understandable. unfortunate
hope it gets changes someday, chainswords are iconic after all
they should make you recover health from rev kills like a glory kill 
anyone know whats causing game to crash this patch? happened in my last h40 game when there was a shit load of enemies on screen
know of any other fix?
I'm gonna try it out myself
If you were in my h40 match on carnival sorry i crashed
and then crashed again
Does the orthus hardmode skip not work anymore? Multiple games now I've hit the bell and no skip, also no skip if 2 or even everyone hits the bell
Like the execution order thing was annoying but this is on the level of the Mettle bug but for literally every class lol
That temporary buff bar fix seems to be working for me
How see this
2
odamn
been getting blackscreens when entering missions
Congratulations, you have been Black Shipped
Sorry, dealing with poxwalkers. And the mauler on top of me.
Was rashad flak cara brutal momentum head taker
Unarmored carapace
There a table somewhere to compare DPS and/or ammo efficiency between weapons?
paths guide is probably the most detailed weapon guide n closest to what ur looking for
AFAIK no
If there exists one it’s probably very skewed and not accurate
If u did actually do a full test like that there would be a lot of surprising results
Kind of more less want a way of comparing marks of ranged weapons assuming the guns are stripped of their blessings and have identical dump stats
seems like a pointless exercise
what for
raw numbers don't mean much
That’s not gonna mean much
A comparison between recon las marks
What kind of build variety would there be between the same type of weapon using different marks?
Like I said. I'm referring specifically to recon las
What moveset and special variety
XII, works with onslaught better (not that onslaught is specifically worth using, it just has the option)
VIc, can fit a bunch of builds
XIV, cleave is nice but u reload a lot more on avg
Blessings don't seem to mean much between the marks.
Kind of why I want to know which mark is, for example, has the highest DPS, the one with the best ammo economy, and so on
if no such guide exists then its up to u to create
The pain truly is self-inflicted.
do it for the emperor
