was this on 40

sudden cedar
#

No it was just Auric Maelstrom or Event.

#

Not important.

hybrid plover
#

Oh.

sudden cedar
#

But come on.

hybrid plover
#

They just might not know about that med station honestly lmao

unreal nova
hybrid plover
#

You'd be surprised how many people i run into in aurics that don't know that med station is actually there.

#

Yeah it's surprisingly easy to miss.

unreal nova
#

All the other niches are empty.

sudden cedar
#

I am actually not surprised because i see them do weird stuff like that all the time KEKW_ogryn

#

Once i got healed with 2 med stims while having no corruption.

#

By two people.

hybrid plover
#

See this is the one case where I actually get it because it took a few games for me to know it was there

sudden cedar
#

Independent from each other.

hybrid plover
#

It's just in a really inconspicuous spot.

red portal
unreal nova
native ocean
hybrid plover
#

Basically looks the same as all the other rooms and yet it's angled in a way where you can easily miss it too so you may not run into it or know its there until someone that does know its there uses it.

last week I had a zealot on a CIVI auric mael spamming I NEED AMMO emote for 3/4s of a mission before suddenly leaving

#

I laughed my ass off

unreal nova
sudden cedar
#

That happens all the time, always funny.

hybrid plover
red portal
sudden cedar
#

Rumblergryn spamming that rumbler at the beginning and leave the moment they have no ammo left.

hybrid plover
#

Like we were fine and all but why doe

sudden cedar
#

Or rather, become really bad because their all-killing weapon does not function anymore and they don't know what to do.

red portal
hybrid plover
#

It's actually funny.

sudden cedar
hybrid plover
#

Because ironically it actually makes it easier for me to proc until death.

#

The whole gimmick is utilizing the tdr and golden toughness from chorus to make it really hard to actually take health damage by staying low.

It's a risky system.

#

But it works.

red portal
native ocean
#

I also just cannot get mad at rumblergryns

hybrid plover
#

Any backstab kills you get cuts your CD by 10s

sudden cedar
#

Why not get mad?

native ocean
#

they just soak up so much damage, they're actually useful

hybrid plover
#

And it is very easy to do.

red portal
hybrid plover
#

That was my first havoc 40 win lol

#

Just push, dodge to get behind enemies, hit enemies in back

#

Chorus.

#

Rinse and repeat.

native ocean
#

when havoc 1.0 released I grinded my way from 1 to 27 and got the entire set by playing infil shredder frag vet with csword and boltgun

#

my wrist got really sore

#

all with randoms too

hybrid plover
#

The tricky part, honestly

#

Is getting your health low without actually procing until death at first

unreal nova
hybrid plover
#

I'd imagine. 😔

unreal nova
#

Things are questionably angled at that ping.

#

The server sees WAY differently than you.

native ocean
#

yeah, the game just becomes turbodog to play at that ping

sudden cedar
#

Rubberbanding is a lot of fun.

native ocean
#

I love playing with my US friend on NA east and just watching all my attack animations spazz out

red portal
#

The game starts getting unplayable for me in the 150-180 ms range.

unreal nova
#

I'm not sure if I'm hitting or not at times.

red portal
#

100-120 is fine

native ocean
#

yeah that's unplayable for me

#

so I very much prefer playing on my own server

unreal nova
#

All I know is, PANIC IS BEST PANIC HARDER YES.

hybrid plover
#

I still recall that h40 i did on 200+ ping with papa

sudden cedar
#

For you it might.

#

I prefer to stay calm.

hybrid plover
#

I felt like I was seasoned into a better player through that hellish experience.

red portal
#

Doing havoc 40's with people who should not be doing havoc 40's certainly does make you better at surviving.

Like I mean the amount of arbites who will get mutie grabbed and just fucking die instantly is so funny to me.

#

Like come on you're playing the class with an immortality button

#

You should not be dying first.

unreal nova
#

??? The game.

red portal
#

True

hybrid plover
#

The arbites that run straight into a ritual when no one is ready to take it on, including themselves so they aggro the casters and let the daemonhost spawn and sabotage the game basically

#

Very funny stuff.

unreal nova

#

<_<

red portal
#

That time at least.

unreal nova
#

I'm more joking about my horrible build.

DJ arbites in the house.

I dislike martyrdom cause its the only reason for wound curios to exist

steep flower

#

17 toughness + 2 wound curios Vs 3 wound curios is a hard choice.

sudden cedar
#

@steep flower It wasn't the one that rushed ahead and got your team wiped was it?

steep flower
turbid ibex
#

If we're keeping martyrdom scaling with wounds just remove wound curios from the game and just let martyrdom grant +3 wounds itself idk

sudden cedar
#

God-Emperor grant me strength, i have been a witness of this.

red portal
#

Most havoc 40 party finder teammates are interesting to say the least.

#

You get like the havoc 20 clearance vet and fresh 30's applying.

#

Some people don't even have all their gear yellowed.

steep flower
red portal
#

Yeah I have played good party finders.

steep flower
#

And thus they stay in those clearances

red portal
#

Was with a group were we cleared 40 second try.

#

My assignment is 40 so I don't care about losing anymore

#

I will just take anyone into 40's after warning them that they will in fact not have fun.

sonic kayak
#

I told him "generally I don't care for level and build, I just like 1 of each class"

#

Only exception is Arby, I have never been in a situation that made me go "Man, I wish we had an Arby"

#

Most of them are selfish or over-reliant on the dog anyways

#

Some Chorus Zealots too who think they carry the whole game because of their poorly placed Chorus KEK

crimson wyvern
#

i really hope we start getting leaving penalties, its my firm belief its because everyone thinks the servers are crap and they DC all the time that they shouldnt do it

I promise you theres a way for the server to tell the difference between a DC and a ragequitter

#

Theres just so many ways you can do so

sonic kayak
#

Well, there is, for Havoc

Do magical attacks only nullify physical resistance? Or also projectile resistance?

sudden cedar
#

Magical attacks?

Physical resistance? Projectile Resistance?

Almost sounds like you are playing the wrong game.

oh boy, wrong discord

feels like i went to school without pants on

sudden cedar
#

Sounds like Warhammer Total War.

carmine cradle
#

indeed it was

sudden cedar
#

Yes.

#

Magical Attacks should bypass resistances.

carmine cradle
#

cool cool :p

sudden cedar
#

What you are looking for is Magic Resistance or some such.

#

Alternatively, Ward Save will reduce all incoming damage by that amount.

Does gaslight mains mean anything in this specific context or

yeah every enemy of Karien is a gaslight main

She's the hamster wheel that keeps the game running

h1 special loop makes it perfect for cara and unyield

I think it works for all marks

cause its a melee weapon

which means you should be using it all the time to conserve ammo

Give me a Power Glaive or Power Halberd. Please.

I wish vet had a heavy melee weapon

Like a powerfist

grand perch
#

i run heavy sword on a flavour build with ilas, relying on kraks for "quick" armor disposal

you end up needing h1 into heavy loop quite a bit

Probs entirely new weapons alongside either a vet or zealot rework

remember our vet havoc video rebel

I’m so fucking in denial of anything for Vet at this point I just expect things for the other classes instead of vet so I can never be disappointed

tall torrent

#

Not for Vet though 🚬

#

Can’t be disappointed if I simply refuse to believe it’s for the class

tall torrent

that's my guess

faint beacon
#

Monkey paw curls

faint beacon
#

It’s for Arby

grand perch
#

no hurt mr shark

tall torrent
faint beacon
#

Knowing them they’d probably make it a split between the two

tall torrent
#

and tbh vet needs more good weapons, not more weapons

#

I wouldn't mind if smth got gigabuffed to be good

faint beacon
#

Buff the outdated weapons even though I like them being weaker which then makes me improve at the game

#

Can think of 3 immediately that could use tweaks

tall torrent
#

if ur only thinking of 3 ur not being imaginative enough

faint beacon
#

Ilas, Vigils, Chords

#

I know there’s more

tall torrent
#

it's really more like 20+

faint beacon
#

Those are like the immediate 3 I can think of

turbid ibex
#

chaxes?

tall torrent
#

I wouldn’t mind if they buffed chainaxe so much it could stand to compete vs power sword

void dragon
#

iLas, shredder, Brautos, Vigil, Chainweapons, (i still think) C.Shotguns (need more buff)

narrow frost
#

shredder is fine

tall torrent
#

At this point when everything new is balanced for havoc I don’t care if everything has to be balanced towards that

narrow frost
#

shotgun are fine

#

well

#

agri and Dbarrela re

shredder is worse than Inf Autogun

Ammo is largely fine if they actually could 1 tap things

imagine the Acca with the slug shot of the agri

tall torrent
void dragon

#

Think about that in a Auric and Havoc match

#

How useful is that generally?

#

Not much lmao

tall torrent
#

It’s not even good DOT

void dragon
#

would want the regular shots to be relevant without the special, it still bugs me that the fire shot does no damage

slow spade
#

honestly I wish it fired the stun shells from the arbites exterminator shotgun

void dragon
#

even if it does DoT

slow spade

those things stun for like 10 seconds

surely someone will kill them right 🥺

Which does somewhere like 2x to 12x its dps

void dragon
unreal nova
#

Oh, the fire one.

void dragon
#

yeah, still mad that the fire shell does 0 damage

#

like WHY?!!!

unreal nova
#

Because it clearly blows hot steam at everything, right?

turbid ibex
#

in this instance

faint beacon
#

I’m just saying if the exterm shells can hit like a truck

#

Fuck it we ball and buff the DOT on Acca shells

I was thinking 12

unreal nova

Instant 16 stacks.

tall torrent
tall torrent
#

Up to 6 per shot

#

And it’s 0.45 stack per pellet hit

unreal nova
#

Just insta max stacks.

tall torrent
#

Therefore u have to actually hit high pellets to stack it decently well

#

And u need to shoot twice to reach max

faint beacon
#

Fatshark hates its most loyal acca CS users

unreal nova
#

Yeah, me balancing gud. Just 1 pellet max stack

void dragon
#

twice? i thought you need to hit trice for max fire stacks

tall torrent
#

100% of them are gaslighting themselves

#

Thereby preventing any real change to the weapon to make it good

void dragon
sudden cedar
unreal nova
#

Agri only good one. Other two I keep confusing which is which so herp.

void dragon
#

agri is the slug, acca is the fire one and the zarona idk what its niche is

Quack shots. I think.

So the budget shock mine exe shottie standard shot

Is it not? My bad then?

plain shore
#

can someone help me make my vat build better?

orchid hemlock
plain shore
#

heheheh xd sure

void dragon
#

@formal ice @sudden cedar the dump stat for Helbore Lasgun is Stability

plain shore
#

so i know it may not be the best option but i wanna build that is the most caidian pew pew build like the best that those weapons and abilities can do

grand perch
#

weak spot damage perk

#

death sentence

orchid hemlock
#

weak spot damage perk is the second worst stat in the game

plain shore
#

damnnn

orchid hemlock
#

both SE and SR is overkill, replace one with something else

I personally would go gunner resist but that is because i spam havocs

orchid hemlock
plain shore
#

you got idea or suggestions for some options to change to?

orchid hemlock
plain shore
orchid hemlock
#

i just dont think any other enemy in the game is that threatening

covert fable

You must do as orcks says or watch your back in the waters

#

oh hell ya i aint playing

orchid hemlock
#

im not sure what is going on here just take the middle nodeand you get 2 points

covert fable
grand perch
#

yes

orchid hemlock
#

longshot is ass since it requires the target to be very far away to get the value out of it

covert fable
#

What does this node offer?

orchid hemlock
plain shore
#

10 tdr

orchid hemlock
#

oh wait that is the left one

covert fable
orchid hemlock
#

stamina regen delay if you can have it is one of the best talents for vet

slow spade
#

sad middle tree noises

orchid hemlock
#

its not exactly 'required" but one of Vet's biggest problem is their stamina

plain shore
#

XDDD

covert fable
#

Exe stance is nice

plain shore
#

did not know

plain shore
covert fable
#

What guns do you use

sudden cedar
#

@void dragon @formal ice Oh i guess i misstook the weapon you meant for the Infantry Lasgun.

orchid hemlock
#

not nec their staimna, their stamina regen delay is the worst in the game

covert fable
#

Well gun*

plain shore
orchid hemlock
#

you also dont take demo team, which is prob one of the best nodes in the entire tree for vet

covert fable
#

You may try this sili shit build

orchid hemlock
#

if it was something like DS u then take the top middle path

plain shore
#

its perfect for the PS

#

and the keystone is fine right?

orchid hemlock
#

MF is prob the worst keystone in the entire tree for vet

covert fable
#

Click head's and you win

orchid hemlock
#

unfortuantly, Vet doesn't have many good keystones

plain shore
#

fudge

#

changing it will help the build?

tall torrent
orchid hemlock
#

Ilas I feel like benefits the most with WS

#

you can also take rashad instead of PS with this

covert fable
#

Well, going down the bottom right side

orchid hemlock
#

also since ILAS is very ammo efficient you dont need to take survival with it

plain shore
#

ya since the crit hit also help right

#

the shock trooper

orchid hemlock
#

even without it, ilas is one of the most ammo effecient guns in the game

#

you dont need to change anything, im just saying that in case you want to take kraks instead of frags for some reason

plain shore
#

mmmm aight and for weapons perks ?

#

and bless

orchid hemlock
#

for the ilas?

plain shore
#

bc i have here weak point

#

so maybe carapace?

orchid hemlock
#

for PS i take cara/maniac but I think for the breakpoints outside of havoc it is elite/maniac

#

for ilas its flak/maniac

#

for blessings, HH is fine, DA is good but I prefer Ghost

#

also, the dump for PS is cleave targets, not mobility

plain shore
#

oh snap

#

i thought almost all weapons are mob dump

#

i see i got alot to learn

orchid hemlock
#

Mobility it fine as a dump, but cleave target is basically useless on the PS

azure narwhal
#

And well ps is stupid

#

You don't need cleave when 2 powered up lights demolish hordes

plain shore
#

well i thougt i need higher cleave for the special

#

so its special cleaving reggardles of cleave

void dragon
#

the special gives you all the cleave you need, and the cleave stat doesnt increase it in a meaningful way

void dragon
#

so you are better dumping that, since the weapon itself is slow so you want mobility

plain shore
#

aight thats look much better imma test those stuff

#

thx alot guys ^^

#

and incase i wanna take krak this is the route?

orchid hemlock
#

u dont need to take kraks if you dont want to

plain shore
#

oh ok but kark is better dps or the bleed is better or it has other uses

orchid hemlock
#

frag is an AOE cc and wave clearing tool

#

krak is mostly for nuking bosses or taking out annoying enemies like bullwalks quickly

sonic kayak
#

Frags are also stagger tools

plain shore
#

mmmmmm

sonic kayak
#

Freeing someone from a mutie or boss

#

As well as interrupting armor

#

(besides VoC)

orchid hemlock
#

frags generally are more useful for more situations, since the ability to cc enemies is very useful in all scenarios

plain shore
#

oh snap imma need to test this i did not know it can free teammate

orchid hemlock
#

but krak really helps nuke bosses

plain shore
#

i see so ya imma keep the frags sound more useful overall

#

dope 🔥

void dragon
#

sadly not only the lack of cc, but the unreliability of the kraks make them kinda annoying to use, vet commonly will run either frags or smoke most of the time

plain shore
#

gotcha ^^

hybrid plover
#

Frags are more generally useful. Kraks can be useful but are limited by their number and their explosion radius not being great. Smokes are much more useful in Havoc than anything else.

plain shore
#

damn most be a must in havoc then

#

btw in my setup is it better for curios to drop sprint eff for the DRG and keep the stamina regen bc vat have problem with stamina correct me if im wrong

void dragon
#

Vet has THE worse stamina ever

orchid hemlock
#

the majority of stamina lost on vet is them running

void dragon
#

its quite crazy, specially considering that you would expect the psyker to be the ashmatic one

plain shore
#

yaaaa

#

xddd

orchid hemlock
#

also, when vet is a 0% stamina they only move at 50% normal speed

plain shore
#

ouchhh

#

thats a no no

#

so sprint eff is like the best bandaid for that

orchid hemlock
#

SR i think would be much better if Vet didn't have poopie stamina regen delay

#

i dont know why fatshark gave them such a long timer

void dragon
#

becasue they hate us (and at some point it feels that they wanted to make stamina management while gunning a really powerful part of the class, but it was never correctly implemented)

plain shore
#

i never notice that but its such a good thing to know no like

#

i was jsut fooling around and now i see it in game like how slogish he is bc the delay

mortal aspen
#

vet has like 10 nodes that give him stamina from doing X

mortal aspen
#

but I don't want to use any of them, it feels wrong

orchid hemlock
#

Vet versus Zel

mortal aspen
#

more taxes

orchid hemlock
#

actually has asthma

hollow ibex
#

Vet has never done a single minute of cardio in his life

plain shore
#

and the main curio blessing is good like 2 max tough and 1 max stamina

orchid hemlock
#

but why is the delay soo long, I dont get it

#

we already have the worst regen and depletion

#

and sprint modifier

orchid hemlock
void dragon
orchid hemlock
#

vet is also not really a class that spams push attacks that much or resets combos

#

but the stamina is nice to have for the other problems

plain shore
#

with PS

void dragon
#

Vet needs stamina for PS push attack,

#

and some weapons like shovel or Taxe too

plain shore
#

by the way off topic dose the Taxe is like what the use for its special ? i know that with two heavies it have pircing for the carapace (i think XD) and it swing very fast but the special is for flavor or it has uses i missed

void dragon
#

Taxe push attack - [heavy2 -light] is a good horde combo, paired with bromentum can cleave hordes with relative ease

narrow frost
void dragon
#

and its attacks with crits deal a fair ammount of damage on most things caparace included

#

the special damage is fine but its stagger potential can stop muties, a rare feat

narrow frost
#

this is mk4 using the special

void dragon
#

and 2 specials combo into a heavy strikedown

#

so that can set up stagger and execute on many elites

#

the weapon has it all you need for crit builds

plain shore
#

damnnn i must try it on the arbi

#

i been sleeping on it for ages

void dragon
#

if the Vet can make it work the Pay2Vet class can absolutely trive with it

plain shore
#

did it was always this good?

void dragon
#

it was recently buffed

narrow frost
#

but it was always this good

void dragon
#

with that damage on caparace iirc

plain shore
narrow frost
#

movespeed while attacking and special damage was the only thing buffed recently

void dragon
#

but many other aspects are still the same, still solid

plain shore
#

i feel bad that i judged it like bc it look plain simpale next to blaze sword and DS

void dragon
#

i meeeeeean

#

everything looks lame when we factor DS

#

because the evil toothpick thing is beyond busted

plain shore
#

xdddd evil toothpick

#

must be a creation of papa nurgle himself

void dragon
#

best dodges across all game, great single target damage, goated uncanny strike

#

it was def made with a chaos god offering

plain shore
#

its very comfy melee i mainly play it on psyker and ya it really sweet

void dragon
#

i only used it once on psyker, i decimated hordes with light spam when the weapon weakness suposedly is that

#

never again

#

it can develope some odd bad habits when fighting in melee

currently using this build for laughs
it has insane DPS as long as you keep clicking heads with short bursts

up to 20% base damage from longshot
+15% base damage from kill zone
+25% damage and +25% weakspot damage from exec stance
+30% weakspot damage from precision strikes
+25% crit chance as long as you have stamina from deadshot
+15% damage against elites from superiority complex
+20% weakspot strength for 10s on combat ability use from marksman
+10% base damage for 5s on combat ability use from for the emperor
two +5% ranged damage nodes
up to 112.5% finesse strength from marksman's focus(15 max stacks with the long range assassin subnode)
weapon blessings give +20% damage and +50% weakspot damage on 2nd, 3rd and 4th shot in a salvo
also
enough CDR to keep spamming combat ability
keystone subnode that replenishes stamina on weakspot kills to keep deadshot active
toughness replenishment on both elite kills and weakspot kills
still enough points left to take demo team for grenade replenishment
it all just stacks up quite nicely

you typically don't invest more points at the top than one path

Possible hot take. Depending on what you use, you may not even need Superiority Complex.

red portal
hybrid plover
#

If you want to lean more on your ranged and help your team with boss damage, focus target.

#

If you want to be a good melee/ranged hybrid, weapon specialist.

#

I personally prefer the generalist route.

#

Especially since I tend to box bosses anyway.

I mean twins and captain take barely any ranged damage anyways right?

you can burst down twins with bolter iirc

They do, that's ranged damage

#

not really a fan of smokes, shredders are more user friendly but kraks and smokes have certain uses if your team can already clear mixed hordes easily

hybrid plover
serene bough
#

so long as psyker bubble exists the way it currently does there's almost no reason to take smokes

#

geniunely my leastmost favorite blitz in the game

hollow ibex
#

tbf smokes do things differently

serene bough
#

yeah, theyre a consumable that fills my screen with smoke and blind me bc people cannot use map terrain to their advantage

#

i know they have usage but i really dislike them

hybrid plover
red portal
#

Also shield often has down time.

hybrid plover
#

It may not be the most practical blitz but there are maps where "using the terrain" is a complete no option.

red portal
#

Oubliette has some pretty awfull hallways

hybrid plover
#

Smokes last longer. Mess up ranged Ai so they come closer to you. Invalidate sniper sightlines to buy time. And they don't break like psyker shields do.

#

Hell, smokes and bubble shield together have insane synergy for that exact reason

serene bough
#

its just altogether worse than bubble

#

even if it lasts longer it has no stat benefit (toughness regen) and is hardly consistent, requiring more point tax, and sacrifices valuable DPS

red portal
#

Tons of psykers don't use their bubbles aggressively enough. 🙁

hybrid plover
#

It's just that it's not on the same side of survivalist that makes it a non pick for many.

red portal
#

Skill point tax is annoying yes.

serene bough
#

idk i seldom have issues with gunners

hybrid plover
serene bough
#

there's definitely some maps with terrain thats scarce like magistrati but i rarely run into a situation where I need smokes to deal with gunners

serene bough
hybrid plover
#

There are several maps where gunners are extremely oppressive because of the open space in Havoc. Smokes, just like bubble shield invalidate that issue. The main reason people think it's inconsistent is because a lot think to just throw a smoke and just stand in the spot where you threw it.

#

That will just get you killed.

#

You use smokes like how good bubble psykers would by using them as mobile cover and they can be invaluable.

#

Shredders or kraks just do not give me that kind of utility.

#

Plus being able to completely disable the ranged twin is a huge bonus.

serene bough
#

id argue if you're in an open space and being gunned down so easily you didnt properly use the map well enough

#

but when there is space, bubble vs smokes to push or fill the gap, ill always prefer bubble

#

just never had an experience where I needed 30s of smoke cover to make a push over other options in the game

hybrid plover
#

It's the same exact situations where you would use bubble.

#

They both serve a very similar purpose in different ways.

serene bough
#

yeah but bubble doesnt cut your DPS or tax your points

#

if CDR wasnt the way it was now and bubble wasn't being spammed so often id see more use for smokes

hybrid plover
#

Bubbles break.

#

And they do pretty darn quickly under a lot of ranged pressure.

serene bough
#

thats what map cover is for

I know people find smokes useful, i dont

unreal nova
#

I have smokebombed an entire area and moved to another smoke but still got shot by the things that shot me earlier.

#

At 4-6 ping, they work. At 280+, I just get gunned down because they shot through smoke on them, smoke on me and smoke where I was going.

#

It was a stupid twinned smoke with extra 'nade and demo team.

unreal nova
#

You basically only can use it sub 100 ping. Above and it's a gamble with odds stacked further against you.

Stats on weapons really need a rework as well as blessings and perks imo

#

its not a fun system if damage must always be 80 along with the others

grand perch
#

No you see it's engaging because flamer wants damage dumpwhatthefuck_heresy

unreal nova
crimson wyvern
#

The system they had intended if you boil it down enough is if your weapon has all 80's and one 60's you really feel that 60 weighing you down heavily, and conversely, you maybe should only have one perfect 80 onthat weapon that should feel like "Wow okay yeah I feel it"

#

I dont think it was ever intended that all 80's perfects and 1 mid

which you dont feel cause mobility

The only difference is that scab flamer when exploded leaves a patch of flames that work like fire barrels flames thus it directly hits hp leaving toughness intact; dreg flamers patch of flames after explosion functions the same as if they would spray you cause there are no tox flame barrels (so far)

I mean they do;
Visually
Mechanically (like the flamers i wrote about, bombers, dreg shotgunners not having a melee while scabs do which when taunted they stop shooting you & go into melee, dreg ragers have increased att spd on initiating flurry of attacks attack and start it from a distance which prevents from engaging them without risk but overall combos point blank are slower than of a scabs rager)
Hp types (to a degree; degs have flak bits like dreg gunner and having flak center body that is responsible for DoT dmg, same for dreg shotgunners while dreg ragers instead of being unarmored/infested are maniacs)
