I think CK + CaB + OYT is more than good enough for most scenarios

midnight wyvern
#

but it kill many thing many good many quick

#

gonna need another human on to see how fast it can 0-100 an arb or something lol

faint beacon
#

CK + CaB + O4B if you don’t want to constantly swap

#

That and value from shredders but that’s if you’re running shredders

tall torrent
#

OYT is better value than most toughness talents

#

Because u can get a huge chunk very quickly

manic umbra
#

Feels so weird not to be running SC

tame lodge
#

Doesn't power di do that?

#

I mean

#

You can set it to do that

midnight wyvern
#

dunno I don't use it

tame lodge
#

Or will it just track toughness in general

midnight wyvern
#

will have a gander if it does

tall torrent
midnight wyvern
#

just pumping toughness spam both for myself and allies

#

just works well with exe stance already too since more regen is more regen

#

and exhil gives even more TDR, goofy

faint beacon
#

Honestly SC is now optional cause of its pathing

#

Admittedly I like the extra damage but it’s not needed

turbid ibex
#

Sc?

faint beacon
#

Superiority Complex

#

15%+ damage against elites

midnight wyvern
#

I like it on this build just to make sure on things lol

#

wondering if I should switch unarmoured on plasma to probably cara

tall torrent
#

But

#

Wouldn’t go carapace

midnight wyvern
#

likely still 1 taps dreg gunners with MMF

#

haven't needed maniac

faint beacon
#

MMF plasma is a choice

#

I’ll say that

tall torrent
#

I think plasma is best off with WS path rn

midnight wyvern
#

its funny

faint beacon
#

FT or WS

midnight wyvern
#

you're welcome to do that

faint beacon
#

WS is better though

tall torrent
#

FT kinda vet worst keystone rn

#

Kinda

#

But it’s better pathing than MF

faint beacon
#

FT is okayish

pseudo fiber
faint beacon
#

WS is just maintaining its stranglehold on the meta mainly cause of

#

All the insane talents on its side

tall torrent
#

And OYT being super strong

faint beacon
#

FT and MMF are in better spots

midnight wyvern
#

1 taps maulers 2 taps crushers, neato, ill just go with cara

faint beacon
#

They either have to buff them or actually nerf WS if they wish to make they keystone meta less apparent

#

But I doubt they’ll do that

tall torrent
#

I wanted a second atk speed node that’s global

#

But is deeper to reach

orchid hemlock
#

@tall torrent other than Vraks

Which weapon goes best with MF? 🤔

tall torrent
orchid hemlock
#

Helbore more meta lessgo 😈

regal belfry
mint talon
#

What mark, perks and blessings are recommended for the Helbore?

orchid hemlock
tall torrent
regal belfry
#

it felt clunky af

orchid hemlock

Another man image has hit the towers

orchid hemlock
tall torrent
orchid hemlock
#

Nothing else?

shy rose
#

I have been looking at Helbores... Why would you pick Mk5 over the Mk3a

#

Other then the fact that it looks way better xD

orchid hemlock
#

I used Mk4 before patch, not sure if that will change tbh

shy rose
#

I am not a big fan of Mk4s melee

tall torrent
shy rose
#

i like the quick stab more then the slow sweep

pseudo fiber
orchid hemlock
shy rose
#

uhm honestly I actually love the bayonette

#

stabbing 1 dude that came in to melee is so much faster then swapping back and forth

midnight wyvern
#

💀

faint beacon
# orchid hemlock Nothing else?

CITA is extremely situational and yeah the 15 stacks is nice and all but tax comes in with trying to get right side talents

#

So it kinda just boils down to MMF + TV and you’re pretty much set

orchid hemlock
shy rose
#

also with all the bosses running around in the event quest

#

stabby is real nice now 😄

orchid hemlock
shy rose
#

damnation

#

usually atleast

tall torrent
#

OM is not a waste cuz u have to path down it or longshot anyway

#

And longshot doesn’t change anything for helbore I think

orchid hemlock
#

Yeah it's not a waste to take it anyways

shy rose
#

i mean i have a sniper ofc i go for longshot

orchid hemlock
#

But let me ask you

If a mixed hordes comes your way, does the bayonett get the job done?

#

Wait what is the cleave on them? @tall torrent ?

shy rose
#

no by that point you gotta swap ofcourse

shy rose
#

but a few enemies around me bayonette is fine

orchid hemlock
#

Better than Chainsword AMIRITE? 😈

void dragon
#

Bayonet is to stab the fool that charged you alone because you are too bored to swap weapons

tall torrent
shy rose
#

Exactly Sh

orchid hemlock
void dragon
shy rose
#

I am still sad that heavys dont rev

#

like the axe and the eviscator do

#

or with the axe its dependant on the mark

crude wind
#

I thought yesterday we were shitting on the chainsword

#

What happened?

shy rose
#

update hit xD

crude wind
#

People actually played with it instead of dooming?

orchid hemlock
crude wind
#

Lol one dude in here yesterday man, I was like "fuck me why do you even bother playing this game"

orchid hemlock
shy rose
#

impact buff?

void dragon
tall torrent
#

Unfortunately
Still ass vs carapace (even with FotF is not enough to 1 tap crusher)
And the activated attacks still aren’t good

tall torrent
#

Takes too long to do

shy rose
orchid hemlock
#

Wait

Does this mean

I can stack stagger on it? 😈

tall torrent
orchid hemlock
void dragon
shy rose
#

yeah exactly

orchid hemlock
tall torrent
void dragon
shy rose
#

revolver deals perfectly fien with carapase too but those are also options xD

orchid hemlock
#

How is Rashad now?

Because PS seems soo cracked ATM that I forgot about my boi 😞

tall torrent
#

But

#

Power sword is so silly rn

#

Like

#

U can 2 tap both ragers with light atks

orchid hemlock
tall torrent
#

Because as it turns out getting +45% damage is a lot

orchid hemlock
shy rose
void dragon
#

2 ammo for a ded crusher even in Havock seems fine, unless you are dealing with the x3 health ones from this rotation, Those are scary

tall torrent
orchid hemlock
#

I don't even think you can one shot crushers with hand canon without buffs

tall torrent
#

So it’s quite a bit better vs ragers than before

#

Now if only zealot’s eviscerator could do the same

#

Because not having a carapace cleaving blessing really sucks for brawler type melee

void dragon
#

It leaves them to be slapped by the ogryn

#

But no one shot

orchid hemlock
#

Do 2 damage

tall torrent
orchid hemlock
#

But it goes thru them

tall torrent
#

Which is like

orchid hemlock
tall torrent
#

Neither is particularly amazing vs armor lol

#

Evis can at least 1 tap crushers with FotF ig

#

But I like new shroudfield more for big damage hits

void dragon
#

Can the Thammer One-shot new crushers?

orchid hemlock
#

Nooo stealth is getting buffed 😭

Obese Megalodon pls get rid of this shitty ability

tall torrent
#

It’s not reliable tho

#

I played mainly martyr TH yesterday for event

trim lantern
tall torrent
#

TH still unfortunately mid

tall torrent
#

They made it able to stagger rager with heavy sweep but

#

It’s still so bad vs elites lol

orchid hemlock
orchid hemlock
trim lantern
#

I love using it to force enemies to focus on me over my teammates, when needed

orchid hemlock

The real stealth understander has logged into the chat 😈

viscid flax
trim lantern
#

It's most useful for "picking your fights," not "sneaking around."

orchid hemlock
trim lantern
#

Think of it like "TIME OUT - TIME IN!"

viscid flax
#

i dont like the build though

orchid hemlock
viscid flax
#

played 2 matches with this build.. its kind of fun but.. u can not do 100% HS

#

and 6 shots is still just 6 shots, even with quick reloads

orchid hemlock
#

Revolver fundamentally never changed, just crusher health increased

#

You still want WS on it

And the buffs you get on right side with PS are insane

#

So revolver is very clean atm

viscid flax
#

i guess i will go with the melee heavy builds, again... which is kinda sad

orchid hemlock
#

But in havocs where breakpoints are fucked, it's very hard to use it 😞

viscid flax
#

btw, can u still make recon lasgun builds work?

#

seems like they kind of screwed them a little

tall torrent
#

I think MMF genuinely a good choice if ur ok with dumping one 25 TGH node and being forced to path mid picks to get to MMF

orchid hemlock
# viscid flax btw, can u still make recon lasgun builds work?

Yes ofc it barley changed

If anything it got buffed because now all of the nice nodes on the right side also buff your melee 💀

GamesLantern.com

Veteran build for Warhammer 40k: Darktide, using the Rashad Mk III Combat Axe and Accatran Mk XII Recon Lasgun. Created by Orcka.

#

You actually can take a keystone now too 👏

viscid flax
#

will check that out, its not a bolter but i like the pewpewpewpew feel

#

(and good ammo eco)

tall torrent
#

I run boltgun with krak now

orchid hemlock
#

Onslaught is also much easier to take 👏

#

Shitty node on 99% of the weapons in the game

#

But for XII

#

😈

#

Melees I'm still testing out

But I just like Rashad with WS

#

PS is still the best by far tho 😞

#

Truly we live in a society

tall torrent
#

U will power sword 24/7 and u will like it

viscid flax
#

i just wanted to ask, why the rashad on the recon build

#

just bcs u like it?

tall torrent
neon current
#

@tall torrent are there any BPs for new bolter?

orchid hemlock
void dragon
tall torrent
void dragon
orchid hemlock
#

Yeah the most disappointing part of this patch are the new bolt marks

formal hamlet
#

How are you guys finding the falchion? I like the non-power damage being useable (at least on the difficulties I tried), and blocking when activating is nice to have.

orchid hemlock
#

"wave clear version of the one shitting weapons" 😈

neon current
#

PF is pretty meh

tall torrent
neon current
#

it's like a better heavy sword

void dragon
orchid hemlock
#

Doesn't dethrone any of Vet's best weapons

serene sage
formal hamlet
#

I thought it might replace the power sword.

void dragon
#

You can 5 shot kill new crusher with exe stance, still quite bothersome to do, so I can see the krak appeal

formal hamlet
#

Not having to power it on every 2 seconds is nice for my sanity. Maybe I'm just really used to power sword though, since it still feels better in terms of combos and such.

tall torrent
#

Basically

#

U turn it on

#

To experience Rashad’s power for 15s

#

Then it turns off

#

It wants the exact same talent spec as Rashad and power sword’s

formal hamlet
#

Interesting.

tall torrent
formal hamlet
#

Also all those nice builds everyone put together are reset because of the talent rework. Pepe_Cry

tall torrent
#

I already remade mine

void dragon
tall torrent
#

Went from 4 prepatch to 5 post patch

neon current
#

so what perks I need on new bolter if any

frosty kayak
#

Is the vigilant autogun viable on higher difficulty?

sudden cedar
#

Always has been.

orchid hemlock
tall torrent
frosty kayak
#

Skipped out on it for a bit but tried it out today and was surprised

orchid hemlock
#

I never used it after they got buffed 💀

void dragon
neon current
#

no

tall torrent
orchid hemlock
#

I just was soo happy to use them on Zealot that I never tired it

neon current
#

taxe got like 10-15% better

grand perch
#

for me it is KEKW_ogryn
i think A tier is more objective

neon current
#

doesn't make it S tier suddenly

#

it's a rock solid all-rounder

tall torrent
#

It’s top 3 because u can skip talents for it

rough adder
tall torrent
#

It’s basically the best budget melee

tall torrent
#

U crit once every 3 atks with it anyway

#

Even without reciprocity

orchid hemlock
rough adder
#

Or is it that we have more crit by talents so shred is not that useful anymore

orchid hemlock
#

I don't even take shred on fury zealot

rough adder
cedar imp
#

What would be you guys top 3 (in order) recommendations for Veteran melee except the duelling sword?

tall torrent
#

Vet got 5% crit node baked in so if u take desperado rn u get 20% base

Tac axe has +12% from 80% crit bonus

That’s 32% without reciprocity

tall torrent
#

With reciprocity it gets to 57%

cedar imp
tall torrent
#

Which is good enough usually

tall torrent
cedar imp
#

what to rock on those axes? Brutal momentum + wat?

tall torrent
#

Headtaker

mint talon
#

Speaking of melee weapons. Anyone have the scoop on shovels? Mark, perks and blessings?

tall torrent
#

all of them are gaslighting tier

cedar imp
#

What do you guys feel about the power falchion?

tall torrent
cedar imp
#

So far I feel a bit underwhelmed by it, idk if I didnt find the secret sauce

cedar imp
#

but its like c tier to me

cedar imp
tall torrent
#

Maybe 4th best melee on vet? But it’s pretty far from the top

tame lodge
#

Not worth the 10 months wait

#

Like legit

#

10 months for this

tall torrent
#

If it had sunder and did 2x its current dps it would have been worth the 10 months’ wait

#

lol

tame lodge
#

And mk1 is almost a 1:1 of RB mk10's move set

#

But we waited 10 months for this

#

I'm starting to think the people that wanted a ranged weapon were right

#

🚬

tall torrent
#

To make good melee weapons on vet they have to make roughly equal in power as the power sword

#

And they’re afraid of doing that

#

Or nerfing the power sword

pseudo fiber
#

And they can't do that

tame lodge
#

Because Fatshark shat the bed so hard

pseudo fiber
#

Fatshark enjoys the steam rating being blue

tall torrent
#

So basically
FatShark when designing power falchion:
You will power sword VI 24/7 and you will like it

cedar imp
#

flak n carapace or sumthing else?

tame lodge
#

Heard you guys didn't like to activate Psword every 3 hits

#

So fuck you

tall torrent
tame lodge
#

Here's power midion

cedar imp
pseudo fiber
#

Give power Falchion some more Carapace and well be laughing

#

Not laughing

cedar imp
#

OG powersword, only needed more fluidity and more expression

tame lodge
#

Falchion needs a bit more attack speed

#

I know it looks bulky

#

But c'mon

cedar imp
#

doing the exact 2 same combos all the time with pressing ze button everytime is worse fate than death

tame lodge
#

It's basically a saber

tall torrent
#

On almost everything

pseudo fiber
#

Taking two swings to kill trash sometimes feels not great ill agree

tall torrent
#

And it should have better blessings

pseudo fiber
#

Real

tame lodge
#

The blessing selection is really fucked up

#

People are taking wrath on it

pseudo fiber
#

Looking at the blessing list like

tame lodge
#

Also

#

Do we have the cleave numbers

pseudo fiber
#

I'm doing cranial heatsink which is fine honestly

#

It does its job

tame lodge
#

Yeah that's Relic Blade 101

elder vessel
#

I got wrath decapitator

neon current
#

you don't need wrath anymore

tall torrent
#

Decapitator 💀

tame lodge
#

Oh you poor thing

neon current
#

with 50% from tree, rampage is better

elder vessel
#

If we just had headtaker on this bitch

neon current
#

oh wait

#

thats zealot

tame lodge
#

Exactly

#

Wrath is shit

tall torrent
neon current
#

relic blessing pool is dogshit

#

so falchion as well

elder vessel
#

I dont need headtaker slaughterer combo but pls a crumb mr shark pls

pseudo fiber
#

Would they ever change the blessing pool though

tall torrent
#

No

neon current
#

no

tall torrent
#

They can rework blessings tho

neon current
#

they didn't want relic to have "mandatory" blessings

#

so they gave it all shit ones

elder vessel
tame lodge
#

Yeah like DevaStrike

#

Or BM

neon current
#

falchion just got caught as collateral

tame lodge
#

Those got reworked

tall torrent
#

Otherwise it’s not a true 1 shot

#

It only works from true 1 shots

elder vessel
pseudo fiber
elder vessel
#

thats why I said that

neon current
tame lodge
#

Overload is not

neon current
#

I have overlaod rampage

tame lodge
neon current
#

it is

#

ebcause I am lazy to turn it off

tame lodge
#

Yeah so

#

You're not playing optimally

#

So yeah

#

Overload is not good

tall torrent
neon current
#

overload is good

#

I don't care if you disagree

#

I am quite used to it

tame lodge
#

Listen

#

I'm lazy as well

neon current
tame lodge
#

I run Overload Heatsink

tall torrent
#

Overload is good because the stagger is enough to stagger rager and mauler

neon current
#

heatstink is useless tho

tame lodge
#

Because fuck managing heat

#

But overload is not good

tall torrent
#

Heatsink is dogshit

neon current
#

NO FUCKIN BLESSING IS GOOD on relic

tall torrent
#

Overload is underrated

neon current
#

they all shit

elder vessel
#

reduce heat by 25% sounds like the best part of overload but id rather just avoid overheating to begin with

neon current
#

rampage is okay

tame lodge
elder vessel
#

so I can always have my activate available

tame lodge
#

You don't want to overheat the relic blade

neon current
#

that's how you get a balanced blessing pool, you make em all shit

#

so it don't matter what you pick

sudden cedar
#

@neon current Wrath and Cranial Grounding.

tame lodge
#

Overload only works if you do

elder vessel
#

or all the good ones

neon current
tame lodge
#

So basically it does nothing for optimized play

#

Overload is not good

#

🚬

elder vessel
#

like headtaker, rampage, slaughterer, sweep, bromentum

tall torrent
#

Yk smth cool they could do?
Make the heat meter stay at 100% overheat state and instantly drop to 0% once overheat lockout passes

And buff energy leakage to give more strength

tame lodge
#

Ooh

#

Now we are talking

#

I like power leakage

elder vessel
#

blessing that gives you burn stks when your sword is locked out

tall torrent
#

Basically power cycler but heat

pseudo fiber
#

The moveset of the falchions is good it needs that oomf from something

neon current
#

am I the only one, who likes the 2b over the 1 tho?

#

but than again, I use the relic2 as well

tame lodge
#

I don't like Falchion

elder vessel
#

the 2 huh over the who

tame lodge
#

So

wise fjord
#

What do you all think about the new Power falchion.

neon current
#

weapon is fine

neon current
#

moveset is fine

#

needs damage

tame lodge
#

For 10 months

#

Bad

rough adder
elder vessel
pseudo fiber
tame lodge
pseudo fiber
#

Meta but... bad?

tame lodge
#

Uh

#

That's

#

Tactical Axe

wise fjord
#

Yeah still the old power sword is still meta.

tame lodge
#

Btw

neon current
tame lodge
#

They removed the cap of Orestes 12 lights

pseudo fiber
grand perch
#

did anyone math yet if armourbane gives 1 less shot needed against notable enemies with the new hp buffs?

elder vessel
tame lodge
#

Apparently no

wise fjord
#

Same

#

Dame

tame lodge
#

So Orestes 4 is the good one but I gotta call it shit because capped weapons are shit

tall torrent
#

Unfortunately

tame lodge
#

Orestes 12 is bad

tall torrent
#

Chainaxe still mid at best lol

tame lodge
#

That being said

elder vessel
tame lodge
#

Mk4 stacked kills 2 poxxers per heavy and really hurt a 3rd

#

Orestes 12 lights hurt the first target and tickles everything else

#

(dogshit falloff)

tall torrent
#

Given the amount of time u gotta be locked to an animation with rev attacks they should do smth like double their current damage lol

grand perch
#

god i wish competitive urge wasnt dependant on basically random chance

#

its the difference to make helbore IV crusher oneshots possible

grand perch
#

hang on i forgot about fire team

tame lodge
#

Gamble harder

#

Luck is a myth

#

You're in control

#

Gamble harder

barren nimbus
#

The constant missions crashing at the end for everyone is crazy

grand perch
#

yeah fire team's enough with this build

pseudo fiber
grand perch
#

just needs all the buffs and max range

tame lodge
#

Another helby w

#

As always

grand perch
#

fun fact

#

at 21m you lack just enough damage that infernus kills the crusher with burn dot KEKW_ogryn

#

infernus viable on helbore confirmed

#

at 20m they survive with 13 hp after infernus

elder vessel
tall torrent
#

6 stack FT 💀

grand perch
#

he knows the exceptional individuals get killed sooner

elder vessel
pseudo fiber
#

They added new praise lines

#

"What was that? Did they owe you money?!" Made me laugh

tall torrent
grand perch
maiden wolf
elder vessel
#

I wanted 6 stack focus target

#

im running it

grand perch
elder vessel
#

god gave me my skill tree and I will put my points where I want to

void dragon
#

Why they reduced it to 6? I recall Focus target could reach to 8

grand perch
#

its a buff

tame lodge
#

Hahaha

tall torrent
grand perch
#

you get faster stacks now and they do a bit more

scenic vapor
tame lodge
#

Savants delivery is gold

tall torrent
#

So they wanted to make it more accessible

elder vessel
#

they increased the buffs and the regen speed

grand perch
#

not worth it for actual play though imo

void dragon
scenic vapor
#

Fun to know tho

tall torrent
#

However it still takes 8s of not tagging anything (trolling) to max stack with the 6 stack upgrade

grand perch
#

they should include less time per stack regen with that node

void dragon
elder vessel
#

no they included that in the patchnotes

void dragon
#

I mean in the in-game description

#

Who reads patch notes anyway? KEKW_ogryn

elder vessel
#

stacks 4thly

tall torrent
#

It’s better than it used to be

void dragon
scenic vapor
grand perch
#

it should give further stack regen acceleration

elder vessel
#

mfs spending their life savings so they can 1 shot crushers while I simply hit them twice

void dragon
grand perch
#

something like that

tall torrent
#

Which is like

#

Trolling

void dragon
grand perch
#

i feel like youre not getting me path

hollow ibex
#

second vet rework when

void dragon
#

Lizard say "replace this node for one new that cuts the time to generate stacks"

tall torrent
grand perch
#

im saying: the subnode that gives 6 stacks should also lessen the time each stack needs to regen. so you take the same time to regen 6 stacks as you do 4 without the subnode

tall torrent
#

Should be recovering X number of stacks from min refresh

grand perch
#

or that, yeah

#

bottom line is, its stupid that you need more time for more stacks, it should be equal time for more stacks since you pay the point for it

void dragon
#

"On kill of the target you gain X stacks"

#

And the subnode increases X

serene bough
#

Like if it replenishes faster to be similar to default node its just more dmg

grand perch
#

i think that would be very reasonable

plucky linden
#

plasma was nerfed in last few months, right? Can someone explain the use case for light and charged plasma shots now, please?

tame lodge
#

It wasn't

#

Just M1 everything

plucky linden
rocky jacinth
#

he thinks it was nerfed KEKW_ogryn

grand perch
#

havent tried it yet but someone said some exec plasma build can oneshot crusher with charged shot

tame lodge
#

Yeah uh
Chinese drama

ornate glen
#

Anyone else encountered sudden crashes caused by plasmagun in havoc? All party members are affected by this.

rocky jacinth
#

everything everywhere was buffed to the max, darktide patches are like a shonen anime

midnight wyvern
#

quite funny

elder vessel
#

So new boltgun?

midnight wyvern
#

bad

elder vessel
#

wow

#

thank you for the conversation

#

so new bolt pistol?

midnight wyvern
#

also bad

#

they've good stagger but I see no reason to use them over the originals

hollow ibex
#

the AOE seems kinda sad

midnight wyvern
#

it is

rocky jacinth
#

to summarize the new patch, everything that was bad is now better, everything that was good is now twice as good, which means that everything that was bad and is now better is still actually bad

midnight wyvern
#

max buffs stacking on the Bolter with pinning fire and shrimp the AoE does like 190-200

#

crazy

rocky jacinth
#

falchion sucks, but dsword is now S tier horde clear on top of having the special utility built into the main moveset AND it got a parry

#

FATSHAAAAAARK

midnight wyvern
#

Falchion is fine

elder vessel
# midnight wyvern bad

its got less damage, slower fire rate... less mag size, same reload speed...... what were they trying to make with this?

midnight wyvern
#

sadness

#

they succeeded

elder vessel
#

this is just an objectively inferior copy

midnight wyvern
#

the stagger is funny

#

thats it

#

but why stagger when you could kill

spark helm
#

Because you can. Yall act like it's the end of the world every time.

tropic halo
#

Now I wish I had a hellbore skin because the weapon is so good to use with new tree

rocky jacinth
hollow ibex
#

needs a dedicated melee build lol

The problem I'm having with it is just that aside from the shenanigans you can get into from infiltrate, it's still kind of in this spot where I just think that it needs a ittle something extra. Not sure what that could be but it's eh.

I just like stealth playstyles and all that. Generally speaking, as long as I don't have to struggle against my build itself more than just fighting and enjoying the game, I'm down to play with nearly anything. It's different and actually interesting for me to play around with what the rest of the game has to offer. Some options in combination are just plainly a pain in the ass to use so I don't bother, other stuff genuinely is just more interactive at times and that's what I want to be doing.

Can zealot still do the shroudfield tech? You just slide into it right when you do a heavy attack or whatever else and you get another chance to attack again. The point is to just exploit that one interaction as often as you can. Small thing but it's really fun.

Stuck this up somewhere else, but it's typed, so here you go: First, happy with the patch in general. Lots of good changes and consolidation of bloated trees. My main issue is the wildly varying difficulty for proccing each classes ability cooldown regeneration talents.

I'm not opposed to the CDR talent changes, just the range of talent trigger conditions.

Zealot - melee crit against any target (very generous, easy to maintain the entire run)

Psyker - you or ally kill an elite or specialist (very generous, easy to maintain the entire run, no actual action required to trigger if in coherency)

Ogryn - you or ally kill an elite (a bit more restricted, but allies trigger talent as well, no actual action required to trigger if in coherency)

Veteran - you kill a specialist (single most restrictive general CDR trigger in the game, placing you in active competition with teammates, DoTs, and dogs for specialist kills)

So no opposition to the change, but Veteran got the short end of the stick for trigger condition. They have the single worst CDR of any class in the game, and it's not even close. Adding "or ally" to the trigger condition would make a world of difference. They'd still be tied for last place with Ogryn.

Only apply to allies or also yourself?
