i'm dying i didnt see who it was nor the cap

Ah the sofa man

Vet is like the hybrid class

tawdry osprey

the cap is great

#

Which makes sense

tall torrent
#

zealot hybrid kinda does not exist

They’re a soldier

They should be flexible

tall torrent

arb's guns are far less flexible than vet's

heavy stubber got nerfed comparatively this patch cuz scab enemy hp changed

H40 people are very chill. Below that is a shit show man. The demote system create a nasty problem tbh.

tall torrent
#

also idk how arb only had 6.5k bleed dmg

fair shale
#

I think its funny that you demote all the way to H40 but at 40 you won't

tall torrent
#

is bleed dog that bad now??

fair shale
#

Its kinda eh I'm ngl to you

#

Small radius+doesnt work with dog bomb now iirc+6 stacks

primal zealot
#

probably didnt have bleed dog if it was that low

#

most likely came from 🅱️ istol

fair shale
#

Yeah

#

So dude probably didnt even run it

orchid hemlock
fair shale
#

Its defo not an autotake vs some other arb talents now

orchid hemlock
#

I still think it's good because since the dog has good rending it helps a lot on Ogryn or boss enemies

#

Even crushers the bleed does good damage

fair shale
#

Ill agree it helps specifically for ogryn tier enemies

primal zealot
#

its underrated tbh

orchid hemlock
#

The way I see it, anything that increases the dog's flat damage is beneficial

Because the faster the dog kills something, the faster it can move to another target

grand perch
primal zealot
#

bleed + volatic significantly reduces ttk on pounced targets thus allowing it to get up and bite other stuff more often

orchid hemlock

#

demotion feels bad for everyone involved, especially since it could be from a server crash or sth

fair shale
#

Oh I demoted cause I depipped twice to 2014 errors 3 days ago and I havent launched the game since tbh

primal zealot
#

yea srsly. shouldnt be a thing with how shitty the general stability is

tall torrent
#

better yet

tame lodge
#

Nah bro just fix your internet

tall torrent
#

just make h40 baseline as havoc diff and remove every other rank
it's not like people actually care abt playing havoc below max diff anyway

tame lodge
#

Tru

fair shale
#

I mean

#

Honestly

#

Why does havoc 1-16 exist

#

And beyond that

#

Why does 16-25 exist

primal zealot
#

no more speedrunning havoc 1s for the insignia lmao

grand perch
#

some people can only manage the lowest havoc levels but still want to experience the modifiers

tall torrent
grand perch
#

im plenty challenged

and make all 3 scale from auric diff
so no funky breakpoint changes between them

mortal aspen

#

could be like
h21 equivalent
h31 equivalent
h40 equivalent

#

I think the dev don't want havoc to be this way, but the higher up force them to implement demoting to boost players retention.

Havoc 1 is like fuckin malice

I heard that the ip owner of war hammers is very difficult to deal with, that's why we have very few change.

I agree the whole system is set up for the convoluted idea of player retention but like

Goddamn FS

#

Fix the internet lol

azure narwhal
#

They should just make h40 baseline and your pc ought to explode if you go down

fair shale
#

This game might genuinely be more consistent P2P

azure narwhal
#

We just need a price raise on the shop tbh

#

And make it rotate once every 3 weeks

fair shale
#

Yes. Surely that will fix the game.

azure narwhal

Yes

I can think of a lot of times in DT where I get repeatedly DC'd to a 2001, 2004, or 2014

Or there isnt even an error code its just

"Backend error fuck you go to start screen"

I unironically went in and out of my havoc match about 20 times in one minute yesterday

Fatshark error coded me everytime i tried to play

I felt like

#

The servers are even worse lately

unreal nova
#

When I used to play it, lowest ping I had was 600.

fair shale
unreal nova
#

Spiked to over 2k.

#

I basically just played solo painfully grinding bots up for most part.

#

Because 1k ping sucks when everything is a 1 shot.

fair shale
#

Do you not complain about how bad your connection is to these servers anyway

unreal nova
#

That's 3-6 ping.

#

Everywhere else lul.

#

Well, HK and JP is fine.

#

Aussie hits 100+ ping.

#

Everything else is that dog in a burning house meme.

#

Problem? All those servers are dead at this hour when I play. XD

#

But 380 ping is still better than 2k ping.

#

Most ppl's PCs and net is not set up for hosting.

If you like, really like the regiments normally the non cadian stuff looks a little off

if you haven't played helbore much, start with V

I spawned 15 thousand crushers

#

Not a single one with green stimm

#

Btw

#

You can't see the red eyes on the crusher with the 3 red eyes

#

Or whatever that mask is

#

Finally 1 with green

#

But only 6k hp

#

Oh well

tall torrent
tame lodge
#

Solo play

#

It's a big weird though

#

Like the first enemy you spawn has h40 scaling

#

Then the second has Auric

#

Then the 3rd has h40 scaling

#

Or so I noticed

#

Ok something's weird

#

The healthbars mod shows 6k dps on Krak

#

Yeah it's healthbars mod that is weird

willow prairie
#

health bar mod show dps from the moment something got hit yeah

tall torrent
tame lodge
#

Yup

#

Assessed that

#

Which means that Krak is hitting 9k damage

tall torrent
#

U can use powerDI to check each hit tbh

#

Krak base damage vs carapace is 4800

tame lodge
#

Yeah but it's power di

#

Don't vibe with it

#

Oh well

#

For the science I guess

tall torrent
#

You need >103.125% damage increase to make krak 1 tap h40 crusher

#

Which u can easily get with superiority complex + bring it down + grenade tinkerer

tame lodge
#

Yeah

#

Just 1 shot the 9k hp crusher

orchid hemlock
#

Easily

tame lodge
#

Also I severely underestimated Blue Stimmed enemies

#

yeah healthbar is just not accurate

#

fym 1

#

Something about the healthbars mod just not scaling with the +100% I guess

tame lodge
#

see?

#

the first 2 had more than 2k hp

#

so either I have to get Power DI for better assessment

#

or solo play h40 psykhanium is just weird like that

#

this is actually pretty funny

sudden cedar
hybrid plover
#

Blue stimmed ragers are absolutely terrifying

tame lodge
#

kinda weird

#

sometimes they track me

sometimes they lock their shots into a single place

#

I feel like some genders in a character are much more calmer than their gender counterparts, I found female proffessional, cutthroat and male loosecannon much calmer than the other gender

#

For example their tone changes drastically on voc

void dragon
#

Loosecannon male sounds like a swashbuckler while female sounds like a Borderlands character i feel

meager echo
#

I like female zealot voice more than male.

muted peak
meager echo
#

male loose cannon sound like laid back, lazy guys to me haha.

muted peak
#

He feels like that senior who doesnt give a shit about the job they are doing

#

And female one sounds like a complete maniac on voc

#

I love it tho

Gets me hyped up

PUT THE KARKING BOOT IN! 🗣️🔥

My favorite is male cut throat.

void dragon

i love it when he rages at the pubbies

meager echo
#

I love male loose cannon voice more, but cut throat lines is just so badass haha.

spark helm
#

Cutthroat is insanely corny. That's only reason why I like them. Won't make a character with the personality, but they're comedy relief to me. Comically edgy similar to the zealot fanatic but in a different context.

#

And it's funny having loose cannon bully them.

calm shard
#

The ogryns and Savant Psyker

spark helm
#

Hm. Haven't paid hard attention to them in a while. All they often do is wax edgy poetic the majority of the time.

They sound like adults that couldn't develop a personality beyond "hot takes" on the internet as teens for most of their dialogue

tall torrent
#

Cutthroat only doesn’t get along well with psykers and agitator zealot

#

Because agitator zealot says Cadia fell because they’re not faithful enough

hollow ibex
#

🤔

#

the one that talks about beloved all the time

azure narwhal
#

Cutthroat is what happens to you when your literal world crumbled, everyone you knew there died, and you alone made it through to some inquisitorial dump. It's about right for a cadian

spark helm
calm shard

It makes cutthroat sound much less whiny and much more angry

narrow widget
azure narwhal
#

Tbh it's also kinda twisted expectations in a way

#

These 40k games are made much lighter to be more appealing ofc

#

But someone like cutthroat

#

Is about the personality you'd expect

#

From someone growing up under the imperium's living conditions

spark helm
#

None of the tone is really lost on me in darktide. It's a pretty shit universe to be part of.

azure narwhal
#

Darktide still did it well

tall torrent
azure narwhal
#

Way better than some of its competitors for sure

#

40k overall needs elements of a lifeless ambience and a touch of horror imo, to be just right

#

But this is a very hard thing to do

#

Space Hulk Deathwing is a game which made 40k extremely well and the game part not so much for example

Lewis Jones captures what 40k is well imo but idk how you translate that into a game

# tall torrent DT and RT both do it

It's well done in these games. But imo Sh:Dw nailed it. It is downright depressing in the best way possible. Imagine this:
Exterminatus level threat missions with a 3 man terminator squad, cramped inside of a space hulk. It is dead quiet in the game, there is only the creak of metal and the screech of the genestealers, all you see is whatever your flashlight picks up in most areas. On your way to objectives you see your brothers opened up and tortured in many ways, your own team members are silent for the most part, they make whatever conversation they can amongst the darkness

Are the new bolter variants good

tame lodge
#

No

#

That being said

tepid otter
#

Im enjoying it so far

The least egregious one is bolt pistol variant

Bolt Pistol always struggled with breakpoints

So you can feel free to change damage for AoE

Yeah but it doesn't matter because it's bolt Pistol

they managed to downgrade upon ass

to make it more than just ass

spark helm
# barren nimbus Are the new bolter variants good

It's usable enough for me but I prefer the original mark much more unless I'm really playing around with ws and just using the new mark as a goofy cc button for approaches.

And even within that, the new boltpistol mark is way better in that regard

tame lodge

Fatshark wakes up and show us that there's levels to this

I always never understood bolt pistol fans. It always felt like absolute piss

lost frigate

quickdraw stubber markXIV is cool but it really haven't any strength over other mark

I hear its decent on like Zealot but on a Vet, I think I prefer the Boltgun over it

bolt pistol make you feel like commissar, sergant

Now if we can only wield the Chainsword on the other hand

tall torrent

worst designed ranged weapon in the game

tepid otter

KEKW_ogryn yeah i cant get myself to like it either

#

even with the new mark

tall torrent
#

before they fixed stagger but there was some reason to use it to stagger bulwark with mk6 (new variant)

#

but now it's just completely irrelevant

#

if u want a fast swap stagger gun for killing specials, autopistol is way better

#

if u want mixed horde wipe, flamer

Honestly if you want a mobile option that can horde clear, unironically, combat knife mk6 is a better choice than dueling sword

all of them could use a 10% damage buff or so

agri is great, prob not as good as the new vigilants, but still good

Honestly, I think for any class but psyker, crit chance is a must pick for perks

#

Because functionally, it isn't actually 5% crit chance because of crit strings.

Psyker doesn't need it because high innate crit chance and damage since they're overpowered KEKW_ogryn

How's a 70/70 power sword instead of dumping cleave targets or mobility?

feels like it could be nice

Cleave targets is also damage distribution vs multiple target.

You would want it to be higher.

oh actually?

no cleave targets is the dump

I thought cleave targets was the dump

It's just saying that your lights have 3.56 clv and your heavies have 7.9

Which doesn't matter because when powered both go to 10.9-11.7

I thought it would lead to less damage falloff per enemy hit does it literally just do nothing then or what

tame lodge

It's just cleave

hollow ibex

it affects your cleave

but not by an amount that actually matters

I meant with Sunder active

which makes your cleave hit mass stat not matter

What's the most common situation that ends up being a point of failure? Do you happen to record your missions?

It's not to the point that I fail to deal with them. I find it's faster to just throw smoke and melee them. Everything else, gunners, reapers die really fast like 3 shots top.

Which helbore is prefered? The IV? Considering the buffed Crusher and Mauler health

i really like V

Up to preference really

Mk4 is mine

mk5 feels like "Infantry Lasguns but good"

hollow ibex

Yeh

jovial lodge
#

does cranial grounding for the power falcion not show up in the buff bar?

tidal tartan
#

I use the IV helbore because of higher crusher hp but it's really just which one you prefer to use cause some people just cant

meager echo
#

I use the mkV because I tend to miss shots a lot, it's more forgiving. Faster charge and less amo per charge.

#

I tried the mk4. Missing shots hurt a lot...

#

mkv is really comfy for sniping special. Shoot fast, big mag, plenty of room for errors.

Mk4 had my back against the plasma menace when no one else had it, mk4 Helbore is hero in my eyes

can 2 shots body shot most special, dont even need to headshot.

gone are the days of existing as an ammo dispenser

not true

#

also gold toughness dispenser

hybrid plover
#

aint that literally called "cleave damage"

open ravine
#

I feel plasma works best on stealth vet now

#

Just synergies nicely with it pushing plasma over those one shot breakpoints especially if you pair it with focus target

#

Plus gives you the much needed breathing room that plasma needs at times

sharp epoch
#

better off going exe stance for those breakpoints

sharp epoch
#

they nerfed tactical awareness, vets one cdr node which probably doubles your cooldown realistically now

sharp epoch
#

if your good you can run anything in auric I guess

open ravine
#

But current stealth is really good like huge buffs and stuns a lot of dudes

#

I actually feel it's a bit better than shout in terms of suppressing enemies as stun last longer than knockdown

zenith carbon
#

but 50% more cooldown

open ravine
#

The buffs are big and it saves you big time in some situations

sharp epoch
#

the problem with stealth in dt is it dumps aggro on your teammates, its like the opposite of shout in how it helps your team

tepid otter
#

huh, never thought of it that away

open ravine
#

Just be a team player and suppress the enemies around teammates

#

You use stealth to get that annoying asshole in the back, revive guys in sticky situations and do mission objectives when the game just won't stop

#

here is the build I was using which felt pretty good

#

A bit of a hybrid class but mainly focuses on getting those big damage numbers

old cobalt
#

why not drop Tactical Reload for Reciprocity?

#

o

#

fuc

#

sorry

old cobalt
#

25% reload speed exclusively when you're NOT pressed to reload quickly vs a stacking 5-25% crit chance is a pretty big diff in usecase

open ravine
old cobalt
#

because it doesnt reload, it just cools your weapon 25% faster?

open ravine
#

Plasma has a long reload so its nice to speed it up where you can

#

If you run something else I would drop tactical reload

old cobalt
#

yeah ive always looked at that as a total dogshit node not even worth consideration

#

but ive also never run plasma gun

#

so

open ravine
old cobalt
#

WEll

#

Its useless, but if you teq it, i could see it being really good?

midnight mortar
old cobalt
#

Like if you intentionally reload at 1/2 bullets left every time

midnight mortar
#

It's not like it needs that much help hitting breakpoints.

#

Certainly not with crits.

old cobalt
#

yeah im pretty ignorant about plasma n stuffs

open ravine
#

Yeah plasma gets some really high Crit chance naturally with its best blessings

midnight mortar
#

Having smoother, faster reloads for those moments when you have 8+ specials and etc. that all NEED to die makes all the difference.

old cobalt
#

noted, so this is 100% a plasma gun focused build with melee as a plan b

open ravine
#

Yeah

old cobalt
#

yeah that makes more senes

#

sense

open ravine
#

The boosts from stealth help it hit those one shots

old cobalt
#

I tried plasma/power sword as a duo with weapon specialist and holy shit

#

i dont think ive ever played with anything in any game that felt MORE unintuitive/clunky

open ravine
#

Plasma doesn't synergies as well as other weapons with executioner stance

old cobalt
#

i was using VoC tbf

open ravine
#

VOC is just an all-rounder so anything works with it

old cobalt
#

but it definitely does not feel great to deal with the PS clunk then swap to Plasma rifle just to pot shot

#

I would much rather run Zarona/Bolt Pistol

sharp epoch
#

i use exe stance with plasma just fine 🧍

old cobalt
#

plasma seems like with exe stance its either like really bad or DISGUSTING

#

depending on situation

open ravine
old cobalt
#

I just wish Fat Shark would give the Zarona a speedloader

#

so i can run it exclusively

#

but 6 shots in the cylinder with slow reload when there are 30 elites staring at you is n o t optimal

open ravine
#

Like recon and other automatic weapons can become exceptional on executioner

remote sonnet
#

Bolt pistol is a thing...

old cobalt
#

its what i use 90% of the time

old cobalt

I REALLY like revolvers. Always have.

open ravine

Zarona Revolver just feels so GOOD

sinful palm
#

On vet i kinda like bolt pistol with knife AYAYASMAS grenade spammmmm all match baby

open ravine

But I feel bolters have become a bit of arbites baby just because of how well the stagger buffs work with it

old cobalt
#

I'd love to run Zarona+DS for that duelist vibe

old cobalt
#

arbite gets so much stagger synergy

open ravine
#

Yeah

old cobalt
#

they dont even need to use the gun to kill, do they? they can just stagger and go off with ASM

open ravine
#

If an arbites isn't using one of their amazing class exclusives they are using a bolter
