@outer wolf If you play Veteran, for H40 you would need extra health otherwise you get oneshot by a poxburster
for recon lasgun vet build, should I go with something with horde clear or something more like a DS?
Yeah, that's why I am asking
will go x2 toughness + x1 HP and 5% HP each for the perks
i would focus on single target dmg
sworb it is. Time to get gambling.
I figure having a perfect roll on a Recon Lasgun, Hellbore and Bolt Pistol for ranged and a perfect roll on Combat Axe/Dueling sword should be a good start
did you mean to ask what melee to pair with the lasgun?
yee, thats why a mentioned the DS
ahh
simply don't get bursted
Ds works yeah
I believe your main objective should be those specials when playing veteran
Not hordeclear
The nefarious trauma staff psyker
tfw flayer proc on burster
That's what I figured. I'd probably uhhh. either run...
Recon Lasgun / Dueling Sword
or
Hellbore Lasgun / Combat Axe
recon is extremely shit in hsvoc unfortunately
I mean yeah
But ammo efficiency 
good ammo economy don't fix shitty ttk
Combat axe is insane
combat axe with weapon specialist
yeah i plan on taking Hellbore for when I'm trying but there's also something so satisfying about seeing a hallway of enemies and just holding down m1 for 18 consecutive seconds
what? no. one of the meta choices
Combat axe has insane hordeclear also
hence why I plan to take it with Hellbore
combat axe horde clear is honestly meh in havoc
I would just use it over DS at this point lol
Hellbore/Combat axe should be SERVICABLE in HC
bm make it keep up in auric storm but in havoc density it isn't fast enuff
plus it also pretty stamina intensive since you want to do pa when you accidentally hit non weakspot kill
yee ive been looking at heavy sword as well
My only issue with Recon Lasgun has been getting used to the falloff range
It hits HARD
Kind of forces you to use bolter
Tho its fun
Yee
Im just trying to get one good starter build on every character after wiping my account
why
and re-learning everything
Because when I take long breaks from games I like starting fresh
cant miss progress if you dont remember what you had, and it helps re-learn basics
I could never wipe my darktide account seems like too much work for way too little gain.
Exactly 0 gain in my opinion
also playing on low difficulty is torture
I could understand wiping story games but darktide idk
I mean I never played the game seriously. At all.
First thing I do when I create a new character is getting taxied to damnation/auric
I picked what talents I had and if a gun was orange that was good enough for me
You could probably get away with that now
so i wasnt losing like 500+ hours
It was mostly just me dicking around on zealot
So far I'm going...
- Lasgun Shout Vet
- Fury/Judgment Zealot
- SG Gunker
- Indom/Hitter Ogryn
Those are what I gotta work on
I got all 4 up to 30 and now I'm just trying to tweak builds for preference and figure out what weapon combos I find the easiest to use, because everyone knows the REAL meta is whatever the fuck you perform best with
and not what reddit says is the meta
Try the infantry autoguns for vet
I'm using that on Gunker rn
Vrakky boi real good
Yessir
How is the ammo efficiency on the infantry auto?
So same as the bolter basically.
You use it to nuke monstrosities and possibly taking out a few gunners and snipers and that's it.
Or killing specials SOMETIMES if
A) You're out of assail
or B) The target has head armor
And that target is ALSO not in melee and is ALSO not being attacked by any other member of the--
you use it for bosses
for vet if you want a gun to use as an actual primary your options are basically Recon Lasgun and Hellbore
thats about it
at least from my research
No
I haven't been able to find any builds centered around gunplay that DON'T use lasguns
I'm tempted to use db on psyker
thats less of a primary and more of something you weave in between melee though
Infantry autogun is better on vet than psyker i believe
If you run SG that could work lmao
Why would you run gun psyker without SG?
I guess bubble for havoc maybe
bubble, yeah.
Also some people just don't like staffs like
A fair amount of people use off-meta picks just because they're more enjoyable
oh boyu
anyone got good infantry lasgun build laying around ? for auric stuff mainly
i havent played any other class besides arbites since it came out so forgot everything and dont know anymore
you start by not taking ilas
you start by swapping ilas with the almighty bolt gun
so ilas sucks major ass ?
boltgun is the best and i use it all the time on the god allmighty arbitrator
yes
if you want to play ilas use laspistol
the iLas has inverted falloff damage (farter target is it deals more damage) which doesnt work well in current Darktide
Recon has better mid range performance, so better for what you will be facing
and Laspistol has good crit rate plus beast mobility
both weapons will do work
this game server is ass
what with swedish dev and shittiest game server in existence
Depends on what u want out of your melee
not true
just take power sword 
I refuse
!!!
In 2.5 days time we get power falchion
And we have had
No information regarding it
Zero blog
Zero announcement
Zero trailer
Guys we promise to be more upfront with our updates
ah an optimist
Well they said Sep23
Quickpaw has had a private post for a while now
SMEAGOL KEEP THE POWER FALCHION FOR SELF
Me tweaking the fuck out over the possibility of a new melee for vet
If power falchion is borderline overpowered then vet will have 2 good melee weapons for actually fighting enemies
helgun when
My expectations are for it to not be actually throwing when you pick it
Cause PS >>>>> Falchion this is a given
PS is just that busted in its current state
You basically want to damage max it with everything to 1tap most enemies
Exe stance, MMF, both rending nodes (MMF subnode + rending strikes)
But as others have eluded to its not the strongest option right now
did an executioner stance kant lasgun build that can one shot headshot everything bar crushers and maulers in the auric meatgrinder
you will get brow beat for not taking shout tho
Only in havoc really
No shout in auric is acceptable to most people but in havoc you'll definitely get some scorn from my experience
Bring revive shout they'll love you
I bring wee woo vet Into havoc cause the reactions are funny
but yeah kant 9 inf lasgun is the way to go for headshots
headhunter and deadly accurate with all the weakspot stuff and you'll be laughing
Best ilas mark is IIb, you can reach all the same breakpoints with far greater ammo econ and rate of fire
Mk9 can do some interesting crusher killing but i wouldn't say its too practical
at this point i dont just want a single new melee for vet
i may be stuck in my ways as i swore by kant 9 in beta til i dropped the game for a bit hah
i want 2 ranged and 2 melee
To be fair, none of the ilas guns are "practical" nowadays
Kant 9 used to be king but it had a heavy fall from grace
At this point it should be 2 melee weapons + 1 ranged weapon
But the truth is the “new vet stuff” they promised is prob ultimately just the arb dlc class for us to buy 
If were talkin auric IIb is more than practical, its that you actually have to aim your gun and not bullet hose M1 spam like recon (which does its job better lol)
"I'm you but stronger" ahh class
1 new weapon with 2 variants is not enough to justify 10 months of nothing
Honestly, I am indifferent about the new melee. Still no volleygun.
real asf
I require maximum BRRRRT and recon las just doesn’t hit anymore ☹️
I mean it's workable but my point is that every single ilas is outclassed at this point.
kinda wish they'd combine shock troop, fully loaded and add rending into one keystone node replacing marksmens focus to make a "hellgun" or something capstone
If you really cared for practicality, you probably wouldn't be using one to begin with
But using offmeta stuff is fun
Eh, IIb isn't that outclassed
Ilas family definitely not the strongest but you can still use and be pretty potent
i do headbutt with my chainsword and kant 9 occasionally because deuling sword plasma gets boring after a bit
But they do need some well needed buffs
Knife plasma more fun
deuling sword is just a really long knife rn 😭
You know it's funny
Because I've been given shit for using it on vet in havoc before
Knife in havoc is basically a safety stick
It's like people forgot that it's actually really strong
It’s ok but not as good as DS since u need stamina to max dps with it
people will cry if you dare to bring anything that isn't in their headcanon meta
It’s significantly stronger on zealot
Cuz duellist op
And second wind op
And zealot has way better stamina management (highest regen rate)
Tis why I bring a stam delay at all times with knife
i guess if you can manage to bring "Rending Strikes" "onslaught" and the left side branch of the weapon specialist tree you'd be laughing with that letter opener
Rending strikes and onslaught are memes tho
Knife player has 2 stereotypes
The speed runner
And the rookie
Neither is worth taking for knife
more bring them for my recon las
guess you have that one perk thats definately getting nerfed
I suppose this is valid actually
What perk
You mean uncanny?
uncanny
U don’t have to run uncanny for knife to be op
lol
Uncanny is just a fast and boring way to achieve that
Don’t worry about them run what you want
I run my knife on vet with precog and executor lol
oh cool
idk, i don't thhink too much about melee stuff
as long as it can kill and make space im happy
It has enough penetration that as long as you can hit good damage numbers, uncanny can be replaced.
Uncanny is mostly good because it buffs DoTs
Fellow veteran enjoyers
that build is pretty fun tbh
Knife is op because melee fundamentals are irrelevant when u can run at >7m/s and nothing can hit u and it’s among the highest single target dps weapons in the game
imagine precognition on taxe
And vet has shredders
taxe dont need it lole
Not even relevant on this weapon
I know……
U have 100% or higher ADM on everything but carapace

I put uncanny on dueling
Oh wait Fr?
I didn’t know that
Ye
Guh
U can literally open damage table and read 💀
hey path use precog relentless strikes on dueling sword
Uncanny riposte is the most generalist thing you can put on it
That’s the boss dps setup but it’s still not fun
Duelling sword just has zero complexity
Yk it’s quite telling when combat axe has at least 20x the complexity of dueling sword lol
Ahhhh I remember when I used to main knife
I don't run a melee focused build, so having a generalist melee seemed like a good pick, i have uncanny + riposte, and +25% to ubyeilding and armpoured caraspace
Might remove the unyeilding
i still like chainsword 
Keep unyielding
Really?
Keep that
Yea DS is not generalist melee at all it’s just an overtuned single target poking stick
I’d highly recommend a melee focused build
Then switch cara
Dreg ragers?
Maulers
Uncanny on max stacks makes dueling sword do more than enough damage
Those are not maniac
Oh
Wait till they try power sword
I still haven't used the dueling sword lol

I guess keep carapace then
Armor catagories confuse me so much
Or technically, maulers are considered "flak armored"
The vet build tm
But they have carapace weakspots
Idk,i can't play veteran without running my guardsmen fantasy
I do onslaught with recon las
i like boltpistol a lot
Lasmax
feels pretty nimble
Bistol + ps6 are what I use for havoc
That’s the build I sent
Oggy is more melee
I wish boltpistol was good
I only run it because of lethal prox
I can chuck a box and watch a room blow up though, that activates my nuerons
1333/1400 on maniac headshot
With 25% maniac perk
Puncture will clean it up
So cringe
The weapon’s design is ass
Everything is off
Recoil still not fixed
Reload just a bit slower than it should be
Literally my entire build is just that. I'm either headclicking or i don't have ammo
I mean for lower diffs that’ll work

I'm in damnation
Oh you're fine then
I'm doing fun stuff until I'm in havoc
Yeah this chat is filled with a bunch of psychos
In 40k? Spycho is a compliment
@tall torrent what’s something good I can run in havoc using ij on zealot?
Ill run, that's it, just run
If I’m using crusher I’m using crit
Does that rly matter lol
My only character thats really havoc ready is arbites
What about combat axe?
Good luck
Will ij push it pass the bp?
I dont have a pub to run havoc though, and i don't have any elitist cosmetics to be picked up
No breakpoints + relic blade pulls ahead
If ur gonna run a dps zealot I think relic blade is current top performer even tho it’s nowhere close to power sword
relic blade is #1 allrounder on zealot
dueling sword for pure damage
Low dif darktide with new characters suck though man, why is my randos half why back in the area 😭
Ij relic blade could be interesting
It’ll help with its dodges
I mean
It’s not even a crit weapon
dodges arent even the biggest issue
Oh, is power sword still good?
Dueling sword on zealot is an overkill machine

It’s vets best weapon
Might as well be best melee in the game
wtf do u do with it when it overheats
Cry
yeaj
Cope
Seethe?
Bet,i love power swords i was only using dueling cause it was a good poking stick
run overload with the stun
both ?
Aye
if by fine u mean garbage
as long as you're not fighting carapace
See the build I sent
perfectly usable
see comparison to uncharged psword lol
It's actually not that bad
maybe against a single poxwalker
Nah it can still horde clear, albeit not as effectively
Now uncharged power sword
and made the uncharged mode actually usable
unlike psword lmfao
and lets be real here in havoc when is there not a crusher all up in ya grill ?
That's a different story
it's ~chainsword tier
yeah not bad
I wish darktide on consol could have the meat grinder configurable
One of the reasons I just don't like using power sword is specifically because getting hit while attacking cancels the charge and that will get you outright killed at times because uncharged power sword is actually horrible
Just read enemy atks better
Totally not FatShark’s fault for not fixing bugs thoroughly
Spyker has that issue to, using warp attacks when you get hit cancels it, it makes your middle keystone procs really tough
The one poxwalker knicking me from behind while horde clearing 
just don't get hit brah
3 stacks on spykers middle keystone is basically mandatory...
You mean the audio that sometimes just doesn't even play properly?
This, but when I’m about to delete a boss with me charged thammer. Hate it when that happens.
Ofc

Backstab audio lives rent free in my head
Tox bomber voice lines live rent free in mine. Don’t know why though.
THE HETHANS IN DENIAL
play enough power sword and u will hallucinate that sound playing every 3s so the fact that it's not actually playing is irrelevant
Nah, is the guy that's barely on your side
That’s probably the reason I don’t enjoy it
The poor rejects and their schizophrenia 😔
No I mean
Literally nothing is by me.
Nothing is shooting me
THE EMPEROR IS STANDING WITH YOU
audio bug, pretty common with abilites that stun enemies I noticed
It's a known issue.
ogryn taunts a rager about to attack you
and you keep getting the audio that he is attacking you
makes you wonder what engine and audio changes they could do for Darktide 2 to make it more stable
UNREAL ENGINE 5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bro, if i see another demonhost I'm going to-
Darktide 2
there is a very high chance that its DT2 before VT3
just compare the profits
between DT and VT2
40k has always been the more profitable IP
delete it with a thammer?
id be rly down with greentide
They geniuenly make me mad the way i can't see them until its too late
Idk how others do it
the voices
yes yes of course of course
The real issue with daemonhosts
They curl up on the floor between the 30 other trash mobs I'm trying to move through
fog and voicelines
they actually drown out other sounds
Another user that will download Danger Zone:
DH audio takes priority
Are the specialists you won't hear while you're near them 
yeah
I'll have to pay attention to audio more then. Darktide it's one of the first games i play where audio cues actually matter
The silent trapper net cause the one room that mutes audio cause
yes
Fuck you I guess
Soundwhore
In my opinion, DT is 60/40 audio/visual
This game rewards you doing so.
I personally play like 80/20
the one w the stair case that wraps around the square column
I'm so tired of the twins boss mission
I get it all the time
turn if off
And no one can stay in coherency in them man
you can turn off campaign
Lucky, love running it. Haven’t gotten it since. ☹️
fish?
le fishe
If your running with BoT missions on around uprising- heresey, it's 50% of the time you'll get it
i dont think so hes more in other places then there now and i in other other places
Neato, thanks for the wisdom good sir.
he is in the GGC and usually with his boyfriend bumner
bumner is evil
The hell am i looking at?
His boyfriend @stone zealot
Is this true
its so funny
The thing is tough, the mission is fine,its the boss fight. Every time i get there, the squad suddenly can't handle anything
Why are we pinging guy
he is evil and must repent
It do be like that sometimes. Do you happen to have the skip bells unlocked?
evil bumner...
huh what'd i do
just like his bf...
What's skip bells?
Ah
If you did the hardmode puzzle you can get a bell to skip straight to the twins
It’s a secret thing you have to do. There should be tutorials on YT. Lets you skip the walk.
Yeagh
You can do that?
you know what fair enough yeah he pays me monthly for kitten services
Yeah
If you play with someone who has already done the bell skip thingy, you unlock it automatically.
People in kark n ball are strange...
Risking forcing a delay on the next patch, do we have a clue so far what will it be?
Quite the ObeseFish response there
hes mooing now
Crazy, i can't do any puzzles though, randos don't do jack for getting them done. The only one I've ever done was that shower room puzzle
We only know about plasma squad power falchion and a new mortis map
Was never in KnB so I’m simply pure
I left a long time ago
Just run the mission on uprising and follow a tutorial my guy, it’s easy.
bolt pistol blessings and perks guys ? puncture + lethal proximity and flak/unyielding + carapace ?
unarmored + maniac
Then you can run the hard mode on damnation and get the gold accented insignia.
imagine if someone does HM carries
maniac i get but why unarmored compared to unyielding or cara ?
dreg gunners and tox bombers?
dreg gunner (auric) & tox bomber (havoc)
impossible
oh sure
@loud kiln I can do Hard Mode for you real quick if you want
so you get the bell skips
I'm not home rn lmao
yea its for damnation/auric, havent played havoc yet
let me know when if you do
no change in hp between damn/auric
How to do orthus offensive now, isnt it random
campaign or mods
alright
I still have the penance no bombs pop with it.
i just realized how grateful i am for doing that one befor they gave us the new shitass menu
...
there are penances tied to it
You could theoretically make a new character, run it on uprising, and try to get the penance that way. Or you could just get the mod that lets you run it whenever.
Im mad that the new CM hasnt said a single word yet
You either do all of them or nothing
Smh
I feel bad for quickpaw
So am I. Loved running HM back in the day.
Good old time
CM for all 3 tide games
If you do quickplay, I think there's a chance you could get an Orthus Offensive mission, if the person who chose the mission is going through the campaign
Im just gonna speculate that fatshark is searching for a new CM and that quickpaw is a temporary one for dt right now
u can random queue it yea
I ‘member when the rescue door was closed, and if someone dropped you were outta luck basically. Oh those were the halcyon days.
so kraks actually not bad to run with bolt pistol
i just feel like im getting more value out of shredders when i play like plasma gun
but i do enjoy the kraks
if it works for you, go for it
im just trying to figure out a roster of melee+ranged+nade combos for vet lol
and have a few different builds ready
its what you are able to use effectively
well yeah of course
doble brel me beloved
I run Taxe, Cshotgun, kraks into havoc 40 and do more damage then purg psykers
the limit is your skill
not the weapons
you got this
Yeah well I run
oh yeah? well
double barrel is nice but I like running more long range weapons on vet
Oh yeah?
oh?
o
.
Meanwhile ogryn tap shield 2 times to open it...
the speedrunner in question
Peak design
lmao

of course! but its also in the sense of figuring out loadouts that I enjoy playing and feel i can have a solution to most things with while discovering the game more in depth
Our glorious leader has told us you must run shredders or you’re a failure!
and i like a bit of thematic buildmaking
im a massive advocate for kraks getting a kill tag
@stone zealot You fw the nitro background btw
it also helps with DN
on damnation i sometimes dont even get much of a chance to use them though tbh
that's where i work, gerald
only if its a map with crushers/bulwarks packs
when its only one or two it gets melted before the nade goes off
Nice for the princess to invite us over to the poop store, eh Luigi?
rift slip might be a little strong
casually onecycling an orb
an otherwise doing 120k damage
fug i didn't even notice the fucking low res pixelated near fried fucking mario and luigi i'm gonna find local poomonger
I love smoking
🚬
It goes so hard
is it good
the game
i tried 1 and 2 and didnt like them
oh fair enough
it shouldve been more or less in my alley but i didnt like it
the games were lauded for their movement but to me it felt like ass compared to the movement shooters i enjoyed
How the hell are we gonna know what was changed weapon wise if there even is any lmao
vet having only one unique melee weapon is kinda lame
we only have speculations and some code
exclusive i mean
they havent released any info
yeah I'll be honest the lack of blogpost actually has me worried about the falchion
minor bit of trolling
yeah ive noticed i get much more updates on vt than dt
Yes
is vet the class that gets like the least love in this game or something?
yes
yes
unfortunate
My brother in the God-Emperor, we still don’t have the stubber depicted in the Vet’s left tree art.
Pain.
lol its true
ah you mean the three busted classes
well there you go
they're busted
lol so i like the two weakest classes?
yes
based tbh
psyker on a fundamental level is busted but only "balanced" by how squishy they are
well arbitor looks cool but cant say im super eager to play ogryn or psyker
There’s dozens of us! Dozens I tell you!
vet and zealot just have the vibes
psyker isn't even truly squishy tbh
hence the quotation marks
this is the absolute state of vet
vet def makes top 5
oh well
its still cool
but even compared to my zealot looking at the trees i thought vet's tree was just much worse
ogryn is busted, arbitrator is busted

zealot's tree is far, far worse
oh for real
Zealot has The Build ™
Me, waking up to yet another day of no volleygun for vet.
Basically, a good zealot build will always compose of a very, very specific set of talents and it's really only at the bottom where you can actually diversify a little bit.
Resulting in a very stagnant feeling skill tree.
i noticed arbitrator is insane yea but not surprising since new classes tend to powercreep in games like this
well thats also unfortunate
basically, if you're not using knives, you're gimping yourself unfortunately
if you don't go middle left to get until death and duelist, gimped
as much as I want vet to get a rework
Zealot needs it more.
Vet and Zealot are both incredibly dated
so whats the zealot build
Ironically enough both of them are about on par with each other
Issue is when it’s any other class
thats so useful thanks
now that comment about inexorable being zealot's "best"
that's debatable
but the pathing's got the idea right
so all the non circled/coloured nodes are like mandatory ?
pretty much
More or less
too bad only book zealots make it to havvoc
also
I’ll be honest
what
Chat pull up the copious FOTF Zealots in 40
while FOTF is generally zealot's best offensive option, book is good
unless you're with friends not many will take a non book zealot it is what it is
Host your own
btw is there a post or a google doc or something that details how crits work
its very nebulous
honestly if I see a zealot running FOTF in havoc, I'm comforted that someone is gonna be doing some crazy boss damage
as are many other stats but i think i got most of the rest lol
this game not having a kind of keyword encyclopedia is crazy ngl
Whipped out the In Progress Vet Guide
ye
why the hell does arbitrator have more innate crit than vet
lmao
surely the sharpshooter type class would have the best crit rate
asthma
Nah fury over book
arb is the "new stuff for vet" that ur supposed to get
Alcoholism and smoking
Cause ummm ummm not many Crit talents and umm
Umm
Yeah
I like fury more too instead of afk simulator chorus it is what it is
as if they even need it
Even though they have an insane uptime talent
Only with Taxe
with the myriad of "15% damage" talents they have for some reason
I wouldnt mind vet having a more crit oriented right side path for its rework
Ignoring the unkillable sienna skeleton they have
see
this is just a sign
that we need to nerf veteran
they're too strong
they keep powercreeping the game to get to their level
it's unhealthy
so how much damage do crits do? the guide was only about rates
depends on weapon
it depends on the weapon
ah interesting
i.e
and my orange hitmarkers are crits right?
knife, which has a ridiculously high crit damage compared to other weapons
Yeah
is this info not available in game??
Fatshark had the wonderful idea
thats crazy bro
Of changing hitmarkers
like just guess
Flashbang of my comment on Ainz Solo Arby H40 video
You dont want to know how unfathomably angry it makes me
yeah theres a huge lack of in game info for a game that is stat, hitzone etc heavy
It's available
but lies
dude I have nearly 3k hours in the game
You just have to do the math yourself
there are still things I just don't know and don't bother to learn because Fatshark is an enigma I am not equipped to understand unless I become a Tzeentch cultist
number crunching to understand the calculations behind a games stats (as opposed to like theory craft buildmaking) shouldnt be necessary lol
It's not really number crunching it's just
Look at table
Divide crit damage by normal damsge
Get crit modifier
I love dumping 2.5k hours into a game and still only knowing surface level shit cause nothing is explained ever
it got a chuckle out of me
it's also true
yea but i mean i will seek out the info if needed but stuff like crit rate and crit damage per weapon should be visible to players, theres no excuse for that
That comment has like
Few people have true shartide knowledge
Like dark obscure evil shadow tome knowledge
I'm not sure what deal Kuli made with Tzeentch to get the information that they have
But it is very appreciated
Decompiling the game and spelunking for it
I mean I figure it's decompilation but to actually have it mapped out in the concise format they have it in
me
It’s dorn…
i should've had; we just completed True Survivor for @topaz gulch

lovely gents @steep flower @candid harness @uncut terrace, proper great players 🙂
Rest my friend!
man I'm still tilted from yesterday
That Gloriana run was gonna be a True Survivor
And then the servers said sike
Genuinely one of the most disheartening experiences I have ever had playing this game
In that case, yes since the game was completely canceled out
oh lmfao
We were at the end objective on the second part
Everyone played their part so well that game
Mid objective was quick as hell because people knew the timings and I had the smokes to cover

I pushed off like two pogryns at the beginning with my shouts
no; but if the bot dies its a fail
You’ll get it eventually my guy. I ‘member when I had a TS run ruined at the end of the smelter mission since a psyker overloaded lol.
I mean I know that.
It's just that it's really annoying when it's the game that robs you of it.
Pain and suffering builds character and hardens the soul.
Oh for sure
Because a hampster on a wheel is running the server
And the hampster is also a paraplegic
Been there too many times.
SIR YES SIR

Excuse me that hamster is unionized and gets great medical benefits for the family. Put some respect in that hampter
was not expecting this with this goofy serrated knife build but
:')
team was a bunch of absolute monsters at this game too tbf
Noice
oh no... they're gonna reset our havoc ranks aren't they
well yes
it happens every 3 months
Season 4 of havoc, aka around 1 entire year since Havoc has been a thing
nice
let's see if I can beat my best rank next season
well damn the timing was opportune for me to get true survivor today then
Maybe in the future i could lend you my services? 
oh i got it literally today
like two hours before havoc went offline
Ay nice!
https://i.imgur.com/6yzaZxx.png
basically didn't get touched either save for some corruption damage from a beast of nurgle

Is vetren just the most popular class or something?
This channel is the most active one
more that it's the channel where people tend to actually talk about
ya know
darktide
zealot chat is basically general 2
ogryn chat is kinda on the same note as veteran chat
arbites too but also conversation about how busted it and ogryn are
yeah zealot chat's basically just always off topic, prob got bored of talking about zealot a few months after the talent tree update came out and they still only had one build 
ogryn chat i have blocked because i just don't play or care about ogryn
i dont even talk in psyker chat cuz if you even dare to try and bring up something even slightly offmeta, people will scream about misinformation
Acceptable terms
meanwhile in vet chat even the most shitpost build can be somewhat viable 
like apologies that i tried blazing spirit on a force sword in havoc and think it's actually not that bad
obvs not the best
but it works
Lasmqxxing
all I'm gonna say is, at one point I ran serrated edge with shovel. It wasn't any new game-changing meta but my god was it hilarious
i ran mercy killer serrated on that run i got the true survivor on lmao
it is honestly pretty damn good
incredible 
it also does fare pretty well on shovel
since uncanny
and decimator stacks do also increase DoT damage
i tried bleed shovel before, did not work well lol
Shovel
wait it does? you have my attention
yes
decimator increases strength and strength damage boosts apply to DoTs.
Shovel is awesome
that or all or nothing
helbore? it's peak
i don't recommend this build
I love memes
say less
the DNA of the soul
deadshot on recon las? you madlad
and no shock troop
but yes I agree, I see the vision, and I ain't even mad at that point
oh wait yeah no shock troop
now that's heresy
Crazy? I was crazy once
they locked me in a room
A rubber room
a rubber room with rats
if you took off bring it down and the toughness node
and then got shock troop and the delay node
The rats made me crazy
i actually think this might not be half bad 
One thing i love about darktide is little reference to the tabletop
Bring it down being a secondary mission cars for those who don't know
i mean tbf it is a game based on the tabletop so it'd be kind of criminal if they didn't put references
Pardon me frens
Technically 40k comes from the black library
Is it just me or are the Boltgun and PSword made of foam now?
that's the point
to burn through stamina as quickly as possible
so you can use AON on shovel more efficiently
wat
Just tried to play an Auric Damnation run and I was doing absolutely nothin'
did you remember to load your bolter and charge your ps?
Did you empower? Give it the right stuff?
500 in both, PS is Mk VI with 80 in all and 61 in Mobility, Carapace, Unyielding, Brutal Momentum and Power Cycler, Boltgun is also Carapace and Unyielding with Cavalcade and Pinning Fire
Maybe I just got too used to two-shotting everything as Arbites
you need to press the special
I was doing that lol
You also need to say the machine spirit prayers
that should still 2-shot crushers
Imagine if Arbites got hold of Vets Psword
I won't imagine
then vet would truly be obsolete lol
Tbf it did. Felt like hitting rocks on everything else though, especially Ragers
the only thing it would have is piss toughness and smoke nades
Don't forget frag grenade spam
could try running with sunder i guess
Arby nades can perform just as well, and they are up to 5
but psword hasn't changed
it's still one of the strongest melees in the game
and bolter is still really good
Spearhead bolter better ngl, wish vet had it
For a gun focused class, it lacks the mother of boss damage
wdym... vet has it lol
He does?
yeah
Vet has Bolter, watchamean?
What's the best 2nd blessing on Psword? PCycler and Bromentum?
it's always pcycler + your choice of sunder or brumentum
I thought spearhead bolter was a different bolter
i think sunder could serve in place of Bromentum, but idk what is the advantage of one over the other
there's only one bolter in the game 😭
spearheader
and vet does have it
There's the bolt pistok
Heavy bolter, soon on your local ogryn -Sincerely a delucional ogryn
Wish there's Bolter variants, a lighter and heavier version
tecnically speakin, the lighter bolter is what we humans use, the real deal would destroy us
give it to us anyway!
Bring it, let the Bolter hurt us with every shot but kills Plogryns in less than a clip
Ogryns lack of guns hurts, but no shortage of melee
what weapons we need for ogryn? i feel we have covered most fields once Twinstubbers get an ammo boost
It takes heavy training to use an actual bolter for any guardsmen. And sometimes augmentation
