I mean you can just kill a nearby poxwalker to get the bonus
wait. Wrath? no energy leakage or heatsink? doesnt it cleave well enough?
For havoc no
Also best zealot CDR is not the crit one
It’s the weakspot/backstab one
Which is crazy in of itself.
It's really infiltrate getting the short end of the stick
You need at least 50 billion cleave for havoc
Infiltrate can use a big cooldown reduction
What blessings/Perks do you run on Tac Axe VII? Flak/Unarmored BM/Headtaker? I didn't know it was a good weapon until I was skimming this chat lol
But also idk how infil is supposed to be diff from shroudfield now
Since shroudfield also has threat reduction
Or a buff to the ability itself
It's crazy that the same dev team that reworked Shroudfield also reworked Infiltrate this patch and saw no issues.
Idk what it’s supposed to be good at atm
I don't think that's what happened. I highly doubt it's intended to stay this way. Zealot was definitely the primary focus this update.
Probably just didn't have the time to consider what to do about Infiltrate before being released.
enabling covert operative? only way i make it work is being a frag grenadier and laying explosives that are boosted by the damage while stealth
infiltrate just need to ne replaced tbh
ye the current iteration of vet feels like a provisory thing
it does not fit vet
ideal perks on new bolter? just go flakiac and krak carapace?
infiltrate gives damage boost while stealthed
I hope so, but I also know FS works slow. Could be a year before we see it "updated".
still like strongest class in the game lol
By what metric, I thought that was oggy or arbites?
I don't even think that's apt either. Every class is just good in their own way now. And I think that's actually a good thing.
Post rework, I'd give that to Psyker, but I always feel their slept on.
psyker have little change outside gunpsyker getting assail with pa
but their tree is mostly the same
Not true actually.
Maybe not as significant of changes as the other two
Warp ghost is a huge change though
But there are some key differences that are actually significant.
vet damage is just wilds now that even after rework he still have about same bp or better on most enemy
I've never seen anything dump on a boss from range faster than a post patch gun psyker.
Nah
Top 5 class
i feel like infiltrate is supposed to be a tool for entering into close range of enemies safely
You're gonna wear that line out Path 😉
Psyker is top 1 class
Everybody else is top 5 class
FINALLY SOMEONE ELSE THAT SAYS THIS
Like the moment I saw that I was like
"Objective clearer 9000"
as it should be, i didnt sold my soul to the warp to be anything but the strongest!
literally everybody said that
"wait weakspots???"
Sorry all the Zealots I've seen trying to queue for havoc were using the crit one
For some reason
Yeah, but Path has the t-shirt.
old habits die hard
the damage bonus being built in did help but it could use some further adjustments
Not even that cuz shroudfield lasts 8s now and has 5s low threat which is more than enough for any obj
Power Falchion blessing
Heat grants block cost reduction and blocking attacks reduces heat
it is still kind of a point tax tbf if you're running piety
fotf
5% movement speed good anyways
Nah I'm running book cuz havoc
They gained 30% damage, but easily lost 30% uptime with the Tactical Awareness change.
Vet got more damage than before
I'm running fotf martydom in havoc nowaday
I was already dealing insane dmg with vet and now it's even more
Red nodes aren’t as good as before but AE + Skir + EW is peak
Specifically Infiltrate post patch.
it doesn't melt boss as fast as thammer but i can actually kill shit
Vet is second highest melee damage rn
With power sword
Embrace the slow.
who the highest
Pure melee spec psyker with FGS
Still using red nodes to fuck over bosses
I need to max out fgs
And now that vet has effectively open wounds like bounty hunter
It being 20% as well
It just shreds bosses
My DS will not be stopped...
I think marksman is worth still but not first choice for damage
speak up mathheads
i mean 20% strength on any weakspot hit is strong
unless it fatshark description again
Mega strong yeah
also last for 10s l
It’s way worse than before
Because u could VoC 3 times in 5s and now u have +60% str
due to CDR change?
Yea
It still good
Wait it stacked with itself?
that more of a side effect of cdr being extremely broken and psykernetic aura
Red nodes can be activated an indefinite number of times as long as CD allows
All procs are considered separate instances and tick on their own duration, just like CK
Okay, is Psykinetic's Aura still party in coherency, or psyker only now?
This is how azreal got the clip of revolver 1 mag boss lol
U spam red node from resetting CD with creature spawner
Damn
Sneaky angel.
U can still do it in creature spawner but in a live game u don’t get to do it so its not relevant
I’d prefer if red nodes’ duration were made longer tbh
To compensate for the CDR nerf
Like for me it's there nearly free
Just a 5% speed tax node that is still good anyways
He plays DS one trick
damn
Duelling sword yea
i mean with ds staggering everything it kinda worth it
also damage
it basically a free damage node
I'm pretty sure that's gonna like get fixed soon
Better not getting used to that
Prime target is 10% more dmg for doing nothing
And gives you toughness
Me when I'm using AinzDT meta and my playlist starts changing
I see a lot of people not pick this
I do play other stuff it's just that I love poking so much
No no you can only play duelling sword
:cccc
True
what with the evis3 cleave target breakpoint btw
someone told me this and literally never answered
What
H1 has 9.5, L2 L3 and pa all have 8 cleave
someone told me that mk3 want 80% cleave because of cleave bp
At 80 cleave
At 60 cleave they'll have 7 and H1 will have 8.5
At 7 cleave you're stopped by 2 scab bruisers
Hard to proc Sweep
Just don’t run sweep
Or rampage
Be the gigachad u deserve to be and run perfect strike instead
💀
Path
I'm running Bloodthirsty Pstrike
On evis15
No rager group stagger 😭
Don't need to

Chastise into 1 Rev heavy
Start the chain
Also like
L1 L2 L3 have sticky property
Despite not sticking

I think they changed ogryn stagger values too
So you can make ragers dance for a fraction of a section
Rashad can stagger bulwark on weakspot hit with heavy overhead
I just run perfect + wrath
I mean it literally free
Don’t need wrath if u have perfect strike
Just crit more
Perfect Strike is free af
Bloodthirsty still meh
idk why but bloodthirsty seem to be bugges
On mk3
BT is more of an Evis15 thing yes
On mk15 it’s ok
i don't get the crit bonus
NO
I wish zealot had 1 good brawler type melee that could handle carapace spam
What is exactly a "brawler type"
Not knife/DS
I mean heavy evis fotf 1 shot havoc crusher so that something ig
but i only played 30s since update
The chainsword Xiiig is also doing that

What’s the new horde clear combo on chord?
Chainsword is kinda better
anyway evis attack speed buff when
Prob never lmao
While also being better than evis at clearing horde
last week
I think they changed movesets
Just martyr
Unironically Xiiig zealot is broken
you missed out on it
Light light light light

I think they gave a single target combo
Lemme see
It already had one tho. Even if it was shit lol
Hoard staggering for teammates
If you have an oggy with a twin stubber it’s really good after testing
Aim for the feet of the poxwalkers/groaners then let the stubber mop them up
H2 chains into l2/h3
Ah yes, the perfect Plasma gun
So you go from H1, H2 (both no cleave) to L2 (4.5 clv) or H3 (8 clv)
is 69/71 no longer ideal?
Which kinda doesn't mean much
Maybe I'm coping, but marksman's focus just seems like the clear winner for the keystones? It just seems to give you so much more than the other keystones.
WS has way better pathing and is quite strong
Only ranged finesse
WS is probably better for crit cause of the pathing nodes.
The value is indeed quite high
But it funnels into only ranged play style
FT has improved, but the pathing has gotten worse
WS has improved and it’s pathing is insane now
Pathing into WS makes anything capable of critting frequently
Reciprocity be damned.
how is this?
but also 75% ranged finesse strength is disgusting on MF
Why do people suck so much at havoc 30 tho
Like genuienly how can people be this bad aaaa
Do I really gotta play with Friends to not be forced to clutch 24/7?
I've seen some vet builds with braced revolver killing bosses in one mag.
69 charge rate 71 thermal? I'm in the dark 
i have good luck with the game finder channel here
yeah i think
no,
68~69 thermal
71~72 charge rate
It's the other way around
well I got one with 69 thermal, but the 71 is in Stopping Power
so into the bin it goes
👍
damn im not jealous
I dumped 2.5m dockets and never got a perfect roll lol
I ended up spending only ~700k I guess
took me several events worth of resources to get one
I got two perfect rolls that shifted on level up.
Abandoned the attempts after that.
whats a good perk/blessing combo for chain sword nowadays?
thankfully my numbers didn't shift when empowering (though I don't think that happens anymore, didn't FS fix that some time ago?)
pain
what mod gives those explanations?
1 off of perfect
Enhanced Descriptions
it quite funny how veteran has not received any new auras or reworked the existing ones so people still gonna pick survivalist
Fire team would have been good if it was 10% ranged damage buff
i feel like there is a good argument for taking close and kill on non-havoc
its just fire team that is way behind
The fact that you can swap them almost freely means that you can have more auras with little build impact, now if only swapping auras wasn't a mod but a base game feature...
CaK best aura 
https://i.imgur.com/82qrttp.png this...sucks
yes, my team is usually dead in the first room
I hope that vet gets an actually new gun in the next big update. It’s insulting that we still don’t have the heavy mg in the class art. Bulletstorm vet, my beloved.
you mean, like the explosive bolter?
No, like a heavy stubber.
We have plenty of bolters pal
A variant of what we have isn’t a “new gun”
Look, all I’m saying is that we should have a heavy stubber. Irritated that we still don’t have one.
Braced autoguns should always have been some kind of "Light Stubber" LMG analogue
so trv
although if that happens n the squishies get a better mg than the ogryn theres gonna be a mutiny on the moaningstar
Big Man, you have a twin-linked stubber, us squishies should just get a 1-barreled stubber as a compromise.
the new falchion is pretty fun
also bleed knife
serrated talent and mercy killer blessing
What about taxe?
havent tried it
mercy killer with uncanny?
yea
Than vet
yea but it sucks

I disagree with that, but at least vet’s stubber will also have the same limitations as Big Man’s twin-linked stubber.
So for the new explosive bolters and boltpistols, I am guessing Mobility is still the dump stat?
or Stability?
wouldn't collateral help with the explosions, especially with pinning fire? 
Mobility
on the explosive bolter, that is
With the new marks collateral gonna be able to apply more stagger
yea im just saying that for the normal bolters it was collateral not mobility
ye, I am trying to basically keep a normal bolter and an explosive one lol
I got the collateral dump stat on the normal one, so just tryna figure out what the dump would be on the explosive one
Alight fellas
Which one
I'll stick with mobility on htat one
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Don’t dump collat on bolter
Middle one looks best for me, maybe due to helmet having camo and armor not
Does tactical axe VII use Carapace/Maniac as the perks?
unarmored
second choice can be kinda whatever
So, rangefinder? The goggles?
Tanner has some good builds and bad builds
I think evrryone hates him cause he made a George Floyd joke
Valid reason to hate someone ngl
Everyone hates him because he's a narcissist 💀
Awesome! I was just reading your posts from earlier and had no idea the axe was so good now. I usually rely on your google doc guide lol.
what blessings do you take for Falchion?
1st is nice for a more “faceless” cannon fodder kind of guardsman look. 2nd is nice for a seasoned recon vet kinda vibe. 3rd is for a vet that’s been through the wringer but didn’t hear no bell. Ma didn’t raise a quitter.
Yea, but honestly I don't like all 3, waiting for all green Kasrkin chestpiece myself
he seemed like the most accurate darktide youtuber when I was playing
Is PS6 still Elite+Maniac, Power Cycler + Sunder/BM?
lol
Who gives a fuck? He literally sent his player base to witch hunt Strawhat
In short, whatever you please my guy.
Like actually gremlin behavior
Cranial Grounding is most often taken, following with Wrath or Heatsink, at least that's what people here reccomend
So glad he got banned
i need information and everyone else sucks
also who is strawhat
no decapitator?
Could be good as 2nd perk exchanging heatsink for it
This discord server has plenty of people who know more about the game than that misogynistic dickwad
I’m in between 2 and 3.
as to why I don't see it recommended i dunno
theres goes my diamantine man
The community manager of Fatshark 6 months ago 💀
unfortunately the only document I've ever found was the ogrynomicon
For the classic Bolter on a Marksman build, what Blessings/Perks are the usual now?
if the only way to get info is constant pestering discord users than a video still has the more accessible advantages
Pins usually has the info you need, or just ask here
Wow, that’s messed up. Among the other things I’m reading (never bothered with YouTube build nonsense) this guy sounds insufferable.
Who is Strawhat and should I care? not to be dick about it but honestly asking
A former community manager
Ex community manager of Darktide. Yes, he harassed a Fatshart employee.
for the classic one i would say puncture+shattering impact (maybe sugical if u plan to ADS a lot) and perks idk, i guess flak/maniac/unyielding/carapace all have purposes
Shows you got mature he is
Reason for it?
You don’t mess with community managers mate.
You just don’t
He’s a fucking idiot 
reginald is a much better source of info
who else? mister e? Reginald? both their videos dont get to the point fast enough
Awesome, thank you!
No offense but I like to make my own opinion, realy is there no reason or just no idea?
Doesn’t matter, Tanner’s a piece of trash for harassing someone regardless.
he got banned for being overwhelmingly toxic
I would disagree on that part
See that I can follow, and understand
after said ban he coerced his discord into harrassing the CM strawhat
He’s genuinely an asshat. Strawhat was a good CM
promptly getting him blacklisted from both fatshark and GW themselves
Didn't he claim to be responsible for the Ogyrn rework despite being banned from the discord and not even play Ogryn?
I’m surprised it took so long for them to act on Tanner
Oh yup
All Strawhat said to him was along the lines of: "hey you said some pretty messed up things on the server , but if you are willing to turn a leaf and apologize they can let him back in"
Instead of taking it on the chin, he holed himself up in his little discord and made up a conspiracy that Fatshark is "abusing power"
already spent all the diamantine from the event bruh
you have to remember that he likes to lie about things and can get extremely jealous
So let me get it straight, He got banned -> cried to his community to harrass -> got blacklisted?
Reminds me of another stain on the Warhammer community, Arch. Who was also rightfully blacklisted by GW.
yup
Damn
there is a direct screenshot of him saying it btw
that he doesnt care if people harass strawhat in his name
He did more shit even outside the discord
He literally diad on a community post on his channel that: "Juneteenth is a fake holiday"
Oh goody, a conspiracy monger, like we don’t have enough of those today.
average discord mod
he also seemed to be massively obsessed with Hank, the Ogrynomicon guide contributor lol
Secret love?
as of yesterday he broke up his friendship with mr e because mr e was featured on fatsharks official channel
really bizzare beef
we'll never know 
All of his mods are also super obsessed with 4chan memes for some reason too
Yeah, I just remember seeing it and it was so weird. Like chill dude, you make videos about magical sword swinging dudes in a video game while talking about how you're a femboy
Was curious since I never heard about him
Just a drama magnet
Like there was one on here a few months ago that kept talking about zombie George Floyd he resurrected from the dead or some shit 💀
Not worth discussing
Allready reached that conclusion 😅
Anyway to change topic, anyone got good builds with lasgun/falchion?
played SM2 and want to make cadian build based on them
I think the thing that made my small pp the big pp was reading rawr's explanation of how you can have free +45% damage up at all times on veteran, I didn'tk now that was a thing and now i am erect.
which lasgun
Falchion is ok
Any lasgun as long as it shoots laser
Helbore is so good with the new MMF
I can allways get mod to make it look like kantrel
Can confirm, helbore is even more peak now
MMF greedy as shit but so good
Well it is a mother mother fucking talent
Massive Mother Fucker

isn't Tanner that content creator or whatever what the DT community calls a big douche or whatever? or am I confusing with someone else? I swear I've heard something about either a former dev being an ass or something
I'm stealing that 
What melee weapons are usually used by cadian guardsmen?
Np
That was supposed to be a 4chan baiting joke
Also kraks goated
he is infact the big douche
the bayonet on their lasgun
No no I mean the actual melee
There's no bayonet on the infantry lasguns
dude i guess they have a knife but basic cadian guardsmen dont go into melee
if they go into melee they die
Oh
@hollow ibex can you send your Infil setup again?
Some of them may die. It's a risk I'm willing to take.
I mean helbore bayonet is unironically a good melee
But helbore is used by kreigs
It staggers ragers out of their combos
Average guard enjoyer 
Helbore is better noe thay they increased the bomber spawn rate
in the astra militarum honestly only Ogryns and i guess rough riders really do melee fighting
At least in Havoc
Saw Sgt's have falchions at least in SM2, there's also shovel at their backpacks,in DOW they had chainswords
build sellers. i need your strongest builds
For?
veteran, of course.
You are unworthy of my builds
Circled nodes are to taste. Mainly if you're NOT using the recon lasgun you don't need deadshot (Aim and eat stamina for crit chance) and Opening salvo (Crit in first 20% of mag)
For they are only for the strongest
You can’t handle my builds adventurer, you’ll have to find someone who sells weaker builds! 
in 40k guardsmen tend to melee as a last resort
Anyone have an infil build that uses knife and plasma?
it's just uh, we're in the last resort period at all times now
So cadian guardsmen don't use a power sword?
My builds are for the strongest of veterans and you are of the weakest.
really liked the vigilan autogun
my builds are too strong for you varlet
sorry confiedence issue when you say strongest 
they will, powerfist too
sergent or comissars might carry one but a fodder soldier? never
and chainsword
Gonna most probably use Infantry Lasgun with this
if you can just shoot it
This one?
Is chainsword good now?
the basic guardsmen would never be allowed to carry a power fist no ?
Yes this one, thank you. What should I change if running plasma over DB?
is Serated Blade worth the extra point or nah?
if it's given out to them, sure.
But it's probably not going to be standard, no.
I assume I can run this with the falchion just because I want to as well?
cuz it seems like his build is based on the actual rank and file cadian troop
Si
ive been out of the loop, was?!
aight ty gamer
if so, I hope he enjoys combat dagger
is strawhat gone or smth?
strawhat left a while ago, yeah.
:cccc
Straw hat is gone 
in fact you already missed the CM that came after her, kitefin
It was good? Not Power Sword op but it did it's job at killing hordes
right now quickpaw is our CM
I mean the Cadia book by Robert Rath had a Cadian using a power sword
Is the chainsword good now?
weapons like power fists and swords are not commonplace in 40k i believe, like i dont think our convicts from darktide would actually be allowed to carry relic blades and force swords lol
Lol
convicts not so much but that's why you unlock the good stuff with trust level.
We technically buy them
Just take off the free reload subnode for WS. Don’t need that for plasma
"hey this guy doesnt die immediately. make them an acolyte and give them proper gear"
yea i guess
My Beloved says that I'm special so I get a Force Sword.
inquisitorial acolytes are several steps above penal soldiers
the trust level simulates being around for quite some time
Thanks
its true its true
So umm
eh
Is the Chainsword good now?
but anyways! if u actually wanna cosplay a guardsman they dont carry any other melee than the combat knife
Lol
whatever happened to catshark?
if u wanna cosplay a sgt, comissar, castellan or whatever then u have access to more melee weapons
she does influencer management
Or a shovel 
I mean I have used it for shovel builds. It was hilarious 
yea indeed
One question why not take the node that give 15 stacks?
only the squad leader is carrying anything like a chainsword or better
What weapons would a lore accurate Cadian guardsmen use? Infantry lasgun + ?
so e.g. for this patch, catfish managed the press preview build
as we said combat knife/shovel
dagger
you being on atoma already marks you out as not really being in the right place though
You pretty much have to take it so yeah.
Anything las. Officers might have a bolt pistol or the stun pistol.
for the ranged i guess any lasgun
Volleygun, my beloved 
Time to be a lore accurate guardsman
Talent points are tight. The damage increase from it can be good but there's better places to put the points
And buy that premium bundle when I get my salary
not just infantry as lots of battles are depicted with guardsmen using auto lasgun weapons, which would be similar to the recon lasgun in darktide
but theres no true hot shot volleygun in darktide to do tempestus build 🙁
Hoped we get one with this update since they said it's gonna be awsome for vets, instead we got falchion
Shouldn’t our infantry las have an auto variant by now? Or at least a burst fire one.
I like it but would love hotshot instead
Do ppl still not like field improv?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkmYM-WjYHM if you fancy vigi autoguns
0:00 - 0:50 Intro
0:51 - 1:14 Build
1:15 - 1:51 What's new?
1:52 - 12:20 Gameplay
Build: https://darktide.gameslantern.com/build-editor?id=9fc24211-6faf-479c-9f5f-ff4895db3c44
If the auto is the recon las though
Yes there is
Recon lasguns are auto
They're just used by the heretics
Pretty much all my builds take it now
if you treat the table top equipment as semi-canon (which it kinda is) then you have a lot to pick from tbh
Gaymer*
I remembered ppl didn’t like it, but I like it
It’s pretty eh whatever. I usually would rather take serrated
Meant as a variant of the inf las itself. But yeah you’re right.
Well since I’m not taking that WS node I can take both
Nice
I've had teammates request for it before so it doesn't hurt having it to support the team
If I'm on my ogryn with a build with nuke and I'm playing with a vet and they have field improv... Peak
Exactly
It's funny how a cadian guardsmen would use a catachan dagger
Knife double barrel is just pure adrenaline induced fun and it's dumb strong now with exe stance
Infinite nuclear boxes in mortis is frame-destroying peak.
huh, vigi actually looks fun now
tabletop cards messing up lore consistency as usual
Took those since I don't realy like Demolition team and Deadshot allways slowed me down before the patch, still good?
Brother you missed the most important node in the entire tree 😭
which one?
I thought Skirmisher is realy liked now since it has like 22+ dmg increase
yeah. Deadshot only really matters for recon lasgun
I'm bringing the infantry one on this build
but I'll take it into account for my recon build
I use it on my revolver sniper build 
But yeah deadshot is not great
.
I will never know the secret most important node 🥲
Personally I would say dropping tactical awareness isn't great
I may just not understand how it works, english is not my 1st language
What cooldown, ability, between pushes or smthing, weapon changing
ability
oooh
it's 3s only tho
yea
I took +25 toughness and skirmisher for it
i wouldnt be surprised if it was bad
am I tweaking or
i did the exact same
didn't it used to be elite enemies?
I know it did get changed
don't remember if it was changed to cooldown regen from flat reduction
or from elites to special
It was always specialist only
super drippy squad
Also was this chestplate out yet? I need it for my dude, All I'm missing is the chestplate
i hate the live service components of this game
or maybe i just need to get my money up
nah I hate it too
but i hate how restricted the cosmetic options are if u dont spend money
They completly forgot about that shop that sells recolors
Does Chain Axe handle hordes better than it did before? Wasn't there a cleave cap that was messing with it?
are you not entertained by armor reskin #7 ?
no
That's bruiser (Ogryn talent)
, should've make it so you buy one variant on shop then you can recolor it using normal currency
I love it
i love playing 100 hours to unlock 4 variants of the exact same chestplate (this one is black and it has an ammo pouch on the front)
They keep releasing cause I personally buy them on all 3 alts
I mean it's still CDR
For just doing what you were doing anyways
I'm blaming you for slopshop for the rest of my life
Afaik
They removed the cap on Orestes 12 lights
However, those are horrible for horde clearing purpose
Your best bet is Mk4 with Slaughterer and Headtaker
With both stacked , Mk4 heavies will kill 2 poxxers per swing
Can somebody screenshot me the picture of new event frame?
Why? Just buy all the recolors!
And really hurt a third one
We all love them
Just worse than what other classes get for god knows what reason
Maybe because vet was and now is even a better damage beast with finesse weapons
On the 12, cap is gone, on the 4, Cap is still there (bitter)
why does 12 get to be happy
.
.
As if the other classes arent even more juiced up lol
At 100% uptime it will give you about 50% of the CDR
Vet still deals more melee damage than Zealot
Fatshart
Give Zealot PS and my life is yours!
Vet still has one of the best boss damage if not the best boss damage xd
While you can't shout every 5s anymore, you can still shred things like twins and any monstrosity very quickly
what do you use to shred bosses with vet
bolter
Me personally, duelling sword but there's a few options
yea normal bolter i guess
I can share the build later
currently playing falchion and explosive bolter
Everything
something something dueling sword
I thought it was a bad weapon
Ive been using the knife
you thought wrong
first clip is wrong 💀
well fix it
I started to love bringing kraks on havoc
Purple annoying bulwarks? Krak
Need to stagger a boss but no shout? Krak
need a Daemonhost dead?
throw 4 kraks at it

I wonder if you can time a krak grenade with the pop of a ritual
Why waste Kraks? Ogryn can just slap it.

also is it a waste if its an infinite resource 
I want it, too
lol citation needed. zealot got juiced as fuck
I mean the dedicated melee class should have better melee
But no reason why vet should have gimped ass cdr
It should, yes
It doesn't
I think the way that is achieved is by lowering vets damage though lol
Meh I think it's fine

Zealot can get really close with fotf
DS needs to have the stagger reduced however xdddd
and vet gets giga buffs for sprinting towards the enemies anyway lol
should not do more melee than Zealot, if it is the case, Vet is now a problem for the game haha
what a time
I like its ability to do ranged shit, feels better than before but I don't think its melee should be as good as it is
So.. you want more downed vets again for not being able to stand on their own in melee?
womp womp
In what way
wondering if i should event ake the time to lvel ogryn and psyker at all
they're both very good
Ogre, yes, psyker, no
its more in regards to the playstyles i guess? i think zealot and vet fit me just right
Pugs are struggling with the plasma gunners on malice difficulty
2 shot crusher, eh good enough
also zealot need fotf/shroud to 1 shot crusher
3rd times the charm
I'm not a crack shot to run marksman's focus
I suppose overall damage in a high diff game
No?
I can't aim for shit and still have 15 stack all the time
How 😮
that was a good build indeed, I enjoyed it
depends on the mode
default krak does not kill crusher, no
on auric
without tinkerer they can't on higher difs
damnation up
Good thing that they at least keep killing bulwarks
Gonna switch attack speed node since falchion is fast enough allready
Awesome, thank you!
Head has carapace I think
rest is flak tho
ah ok thanks for the info c:
ranged mauler accusations
so I wasn't deluding myself thinking they're tankier, good to know
my funny plasma build 1 shot heads them and 
yeah they're like 2000 hp or something stupid
I hate them so its a feels good
nice c:
Link build?
my bolter is 2 shot sadly ;c
un momento por favor
🙏
man the train mission has to be the best one in the game when youre with a team with not completely atrophied brains
they need to make more missions like this
"fun detected, unleash the tox bomber horde"
lol
yea i guess depending on the modificators it can be awful
but the mission design itself is simple and fun
Well now this is replaced by "unleash the scab plasma squad"
What are good perks to pick for plasma gun
indeed and also it seems bugged to get give full dockets
Carapace + unyielding?
so it's like 8 minutes for like 50k dockets lol
Do you need plasma for crushers?
i use maniacs + unyielding
Plasma for enemy plasma (crusher may be included)
true, I had a team breeze through a mission to get team wiped in 15 seconds by a surprise plasma squad spawning behind us
21 minute failure 
@slow spade I had that exact same thing, entire team folded
yeah it's when they do some bullshit like spawn behind you that makes it really rough
because it's like suddenly someone is just instantly dead
I'm already done with it tho
initially made it to see how good you could do with born leader spamming friendlies with toughness but it kills things good too lol
2 shot M1s crushers or 1 shot M2s them, 1 shot M1s maulers and 1 shots everything below that
plasgun is really busted man
other than I think mutant, but you stagger them out of charge anyway
the swap speed for what is supposed to be the heaviest gun u can run is crazy lol
oh Marksmen Focus Plasma sounds funny
Thanks for it, all I need now is bolt pistol build and laspistol build to fix all my 5 build presets
I should really give that a go
shredders and smokes are interchangable too, smokes with exe stance is good fun
@midnight wyvern It's similar to what I made, kek
I need another human on at some point to see how fast it can regen another player with them doing nothing
all my auric teammates today shouldn't even be in heresy let alone throwing in auric
Which shovel was the good one? Gonna replace Power sword with it for you Plasma build
???
Since I don't want 1 weapon on all presets
how can we tell lol
image
Both are MK III
yea but look different
mk1
Yeh nah bruv, u running some mod
nah not yet, didn't have time to reinstall
MK1
Mk1 best shovel
7
Good upgrades on it?
theres no 6
power sword best shovel
i swear

😩
Mk1 is best and no one can convince me otherwise.

dump stat is damage
......
uncanny instead of skullcrusher for chonky hits with the switch mode
mk1 does have switch mode?
Updated the vet build I had
no thats why you use mk VII
Still considering if using +cara or +crit on ds
Uncanny is not really needed with flip shovels
oh
yeah because the other 2 have shit special lol
Debatable for mk1 tbh
mk1 also kill crusher faster pre update
I know but nobody uses skullcrusher and it hurts my soul every time
I would've argued in defense of Deci before the vet rework
but now vet actually has solid damage talent choices
i like the flip mode
Uncanny and decimator or all or nothing are my usual go tos.
Skc is better
not even just on shovel, on anything lol
The cleave.
It genuinely makes a difference on shovel
its funny when u strike ppl in the head with the flip shovel 👍
Uncanny + Serrated
teehee
Its just Uncanny Lac/FT Knife but you dont have to build it to be annoying
It's not about the cleave distribution tho
It's about the weapon actually cleaving
it feels like you play as a kind of shovel knight...
too bad the shovel specials are all ass unless its Mk1
its worse Chain weapon rev unfortunately
Currently loving knife with serrated, uncanny and mercy killer
Why mk 7 instead of mk3 btw
theyre saying mk1
Mk3 has worse horde clear
The single target is better
yeah but chain weapon does actual damage now
Good to know, needed it for HC more since plasma gonna be left for elite/specials
who the fuck has decided that the bots should be allowed to use mediacae
thats such a stupid fucking decision and an idea
just had a bot waste 3 medicae charges in a row
and he didnt even get downed, he just cosplayed as a chewtoy and then went to heal
that supposedly fixed in this update
well clearly wasnt
on other note, i love the new boltgun
the falchion less so
but the boltgun is based
yeah forgot to mention you no longer need to run Lac/FT because of Serrated pathing
Why new boltgun sounds like lasgun
uncanny cringe
run mercy + flesh meme build and get 3x the mixed horde dmg while still obliterating single target with crit
serrated + flesh = 10 bleed stacks on crit
its very controllable and deals really well with things that arent crushers. Staggerlocks annoying disablers
the ammo economy tho is like, pile of dogshit unfortunately
but other than that im enjoying it thoroughly
certified zealot moment
now if only i could have a flashlight on the thing instead of a bump
Did they touch Infantry lasguns in this update at all or MK7 (green one) is still the best option
torrent still the best
yea, that's recon
what difference does it make in reality for lasgun?
Vet also has base +10% crit which is useful if you use Deadly Accurate
oh yea, what do people prefer for exec stance? ogryns or ranged enemies?
100% Ogryn
shooter hatred
Ilas was one of the few weapon that really suffered under suppression
Now they are way more reliable
But green one is still overall best?
imo yes but I haven't used them this update
How did Deadly accurate worked again? does it just increase damage on weakspots or only when you crit on weakspot
We're checking on it
I read it but I can't understand
Has to be both at once
Vet got some interesting damage buff
Crit and weakspot
ohhh
hit the head with crit
Well, time to replace Ghost again with Deadly
Test and lmk 
We still checking
Click on enemy head, if non-crit doesn't apply
if crit
applies
Weakspot Crit damage basically
Weakspot and Crits are different
Simple words but went through my thick head
As in I understood this time
Here's to hoping for 3 captains in 1 mission, want to be done with this event
can't see shit
I dont got the mastery points yet for sunder 4 and I got it on consecration but is this gonna work fine?
yeah should be fine
dump stat is cleave target
btw idk if this is intended but exec stance refreshes even with melee kills, since the tooltip only says "killing highlighted enemy" but doesnt specify, which is why i was considering running the "highlighs ranged enemies" since you could just have 10%/s toughness regen as long as youre killing ranged scabs or dregs in melee
mobility dump works too
@jolly quail There is a variant for ventilation purge, which requires no flashlight ;D
Possibly Darktide back on gaming rotation.
Damn our tree got Good.
oh well i finished the event
Same
for a player with around 100hr playtime the 4k diamantine was a godsent
its all spent now
you're slow as shit anyways
i think its just that theres virtually no difference between 60 and 80 cleave targets
besides I prefer the +1 target on cleave over some small speed buff
it's roughly +1 cleave
oh alright
can thammer not 1 pop crusher anymore after health double?
wrong chat
oops
you can use limbsplitter thrust shovel but it dogshit
they need to add edgelord dual wield weapons like power claws
dual wield shredder pistols
or ju_st the singular power claw i guess
that would go crazy
nah
dual wield plas pistols
if only Fatshark had like a game where dual wielding was a thing they could take reference of
for Vet, grenade launchers c:
volkite would be a step too far
phosphex weapons on Vet when?
oh and heavy stubbers
oh they know, they just choose to taunt us
look at the art for the left tree :c
pain
I mean in that case essentially all heavy weapons
Hotshot volley guns
yea i was saying hotshot volleys earlier
hey guy did you know the the duelling sword from 40k is so popular that they made it irl
hellgun
longlas
melta
inferno pistol (melta but handgun)
plasma pistol
needle rifle
needle pistol
heavy stubber (basically belt-fed LMG)
lascannon (for ogryn)
ah yea lascannon good shout
Did ogryn ever use lascannon on tabletop?
they could be funny and let us use repurposed industrial equipment and stuff
Are they smart enough not to smash it to pieces on the first day?
They should add the Rogue Trader Saws
Imperium Maledictum: Macharian Requisition Guide has stats for using riot control hoses as weapons
In that case, how about the entire gene stealer cult arsenal
They have it in Only War
do rogue traders really use saws? i played the video game and i was like what are these when i got to the dlc
people want to fight genestealers but they should really switch it up and add a genestealer class
Mining equipment
Gsc have them so they made it in
ahh true it was gsc items
"You can't use meta blessings grrrrr"
enjoyed that game btw
I honestly never thought of removing uncanny on knife
i think ive played about every 40k game that im susceptible to enjoy
I'm not really a big 40k fan but rogue trader on gamepass
i think he's literally saying a meme build is better
and not that meta picks are bad
hammer
For ogryns
i really enjoyed it but u gotta like crpgs/tactical rpgs
I mean i already played dos2
oh ure good then
Rogue Trader is funny
srsly try mercy + serrated it's a meme that somehow works
what blessings would you want to run on DS on zealot? been running riposte and uncanny but I feel like id get higher peaks with other blessings
You mean laceratte and ft
I mean it pretty on the nose
Pog game
60% weakspot damage on bleed and talent that gice bleed for free
I like RPGs in the vein of Neverwinter Nights
yeah i loved the game but i hope they rework the hell out the statistical side of the combat for the new one
Which is kinda tactical, but also aint
nah lacerate is not worth with current vet tree
like the core combat concept is definitely good but the balance is completely fucked
Mk 6 knife I assume
The best
yea it's the better variant
I miss when Pasqal was Death made manifest
"Infinite attacks this turn"
"+1 AP regen per plasma attack"
simple yet bullshit c:
I still prefer Mk 3 
muh mk3 have same horde clear
lol i played it recently so for me it was argenta who was carrying like crazy
killed the final boss with a volley of like 37 shots doing 2k+ dmg each
i need to finish that shit too
yeah they keep fucking bricked my bullshit builds
Thoughts on Mk8 Vigilant with it’s double-burst post-update? Used to be the only one I ran for Vigis
I literally got a sd just to finish my backlog and unfinished game



bolter only gooder now
