scout lasgun dump stat?

#

recon or whatever its called

silver patrol
#

collateral

umbral scaffold
#

do granade kills still count as ranged?

inner iris
#

You dump mobility too

#

Depends on preference imo

hollow ibex
#

mob does something, even if not much

#

collateral does nothing

# umbral scaffold scout lasgun dump stat?

Recon is collateral dump. There is only one use for mobility dump and you still need to get the drop on said fart bomber. You can stagger them out of throwing a tox bomb if you shoot almost immediately with a mobility dump when they start pulling it.

#

Collateral dump will always fail to stagger.

gilded wraith
#

Does laspistol break into the top 5 vet ranged weapons post rework?

void dragon
#

Laspistol was always quite the powerhouse of the veteran, specially melee ones, the rework made it just better

hot thorn
#

lads a question

#

how tf does this trait work?

#

where's th explosion?

#

and the reduction for that matter

#

Power falchion - the weapon

silver patrol
#

they are all there

#

it's bad tho

void dragon
#

iirc the explosion is a really small stagger wave, doesnt stagger many stuff
as for the reduction is the heat bar for the activation mode, basically on overheating it instantly reduce the time its on lock down

silver patrol
#

of course it's still locked down tho

void dragon
#

as Dónte said, sadly, its bad

#

the stagger being so bad that is worse than a shove is really annoying

hot thorn
#

so barely noticable

void dragon
#

yeah, the overheat reduction is nice and all, but the sockwave being so small is seriously terrible

#

How do people build their laspistol

#

Dundum+internus

#

And then go for 15 stacks mmf node?

hollow ibex
hollow ibex
#

or dumdum ghost

#

laspiss is a good melee sidearmo too

void dragon
serene bough
#

Doesn't laspistol have crazy high finesse scaling though

hollow ibex
#

yeh

serene bough
#

I wouldnt think mmf was optional because of this

hollow ibex
#

it works well with MMF

#

but it's still a very good melee build sidearm

serene bough
#

I see I see

hollow ibex
#

MMF is if what you're looking for is "ilas but better" KEKW_ogryn

hybrid plover
#

Since naturally you're always getting a crit on your first shot.

#

And that crit does the big damage.

void dragon
hybrid plover
#

Plus the extra RoF is actually quite nice when you can get ten stacks.

hollow ibex
#

well MkX laspis with full left side build is closer to ilas imo

#

point and click adventure

#

doesn't need to charge

#

and all that

serene bough
#

I was using laspistol MMF with inferus + that crit blessing it has

hollow ibex
#

desperado?

#

kinda ass

serene bough
#

I forget what its called but 20% crit on successful dodge

hollow ibex
#

the uptime on it is terrible

serene bough
#

Yeah that

#

I was consistenting keeping 75% crit chance if I just danced around and fired with the weapon

#

But i wasn't sure if it was worth using over dumdum

hollow ibex
#

def not

#

dumdum is 100% mandatory on any weapon that has it

void dragon
#

Dumdum is must imo

serene bough
#

Ok Ill have to switch to dumdum

#

Do people take rending with it

gilded wraith
#

Wonder why path left infernus of laspistol in his word guide?

serene bough
#

I know it has good flak dmg already so wasn't sure

gilded wraith
#

Off

hollow ibex
#

cuz maniac ADMs are terrible

#

and if you run MMF build

#

Mk X can fuck up crushers with rending strikes KEKW_ogryn

serene bough
#

Interesting

#

I didnt think people used Mk X laspistol

hollow ibex
#

it's mostly for deadshot memes

#

works well

#

just boring

gilded wraith
#

Gets you close to helbore ammo economy

slow spade
#

Yeah its weird how bad its maniac damage is

#

Lasguns are typically good vs maniac

void dragon
#

Even with Deadshot the other mk works just fine imo

hybrid plover
#

Helbore used to be God awful against maniacs too until they buffed it.

#

And adjusted the maniac adms significantly to make it a much better specialist sniper.

slow spade
#

Indeed but that was a while ago

hybrid plover
#

Not too long ago.

#

But yeah.

slow spade
#

Fatshark update rate really fucks with sense of time lol

mystic glade
#

my boy ALANIARIS completed havoc 40 before auric

slow spade
#

So I get it

fair shale
#

Its not like you need auric as a precursor either if you start in lower havocs

hybrid plover
fair shale
#

All 200k damage done by the dog

slow spade
#

Yeah impressively bad performance

hybrid plover
#

"15 deaths"

#

Yeah I see it.

slow spade
#

But somehow I'm not surprised

hybrid plover
#

Honestly not as bad as it could have been.

fair shale
#

That has to be at least what, a havoc 25?

#

Whiteshield second class is 20 or 25?

hybrid plover
#

Contextually, that seems to be 40.

#

Someone probably let him in for shits and giggles.

#

And it ended up working out because the team was actually good enough to carry them lmao

fair shale
#

Oh fuck that is 40 lmfao

#

I missed the funny message looking at numbers

hybrid plover
#

That arbitrator is a fortunate one.

fair shale
#

Hey, bros better than I am

#

Hes got the havoc forged title and I do not

hybrid plover
#

I yearn for my 40 so I can do goofy shit like this

#

But this season has been particularly dicey.

fair shale
#

This season has caused me to play other games entirely cause I find rot armor crushers so miserably boring

sharp epoch
fair shale
hybrid plover
#

Ye

sharp epoch
#

I feel like you can try to hop into any 40 some are easier depending on luck

fair shale
#

I consistently got rejected from any game higher than my CL

#

So yeah in theory I guess you could

hollow ibex
hybrid plover
slow spade
fair shale
hybrid plover
#

I joined a 40 with a CL23

hybrid plover
#

And ended up clutching that 40 on zealot lol

fair shale
#

I've gotten to 37

#

Thats it

hybrid plover
sharp epoch
#

yeah getting two or three crushers in one is nice

fair shale
#

Ive used every grenade with the logic that "two is one, one is none"

hybrid plover
#

Try to get them funneled through a doorway

#

I've gotten like

sharp epoch
#

what works also is if you got a teammate with stagger and you throw it when they all fall over in a pile

hybrid plover
#

5 crushers with one at one point doing that without lethal prox

sharp epoch
#

i cant even tell how many i kill with all the gas going around

hybrid plover
#

It's real nice when your demo team procs on the kills too

frank monolith
hybrid plover
#

A good while back so i can't remember:(

#

I don't even think I have the scoreboard info for it

frank monolith
#

Do you remember their class by any chance 👀

willow prairie
#

man zarona cs fuck actually

#

shit have pretty high mpa

hybrid plover
#

Think it was arby, vet and psyker?

willow prairie
#

so fullbore activate pretty consistently

frank monolith
#

Sorry for jogging your memory would have been my group, since when we get a 3 stack going we might accept a homeless clearance person for fun

sharp epoch
#

calling you homeless omg

frank monolith
hybrid plover
#

Did that zealot end up being the last one alive at one point with a pogryn breathing down their neck?

#

Until they were respectfully chopped up with a Marty tac axe?

thorn lark
#

Lethal prox boost Krak radius?

willow prairie
#

yes

#

work for all grenade

#

idk about smoke

sharp epoch
#

it works for smoke

frank monolith
sharp epoch
#

could be a 1m radius changing to 1.25 or less

hybrid plover
#

It helps more with the outer radius tbh

#

I've gotten like over 60+ kills on one proxed krak before.

thorn lark
#

woh

calm shard
#

but kraks only kill in their epicenter which is like...2 meters or something?

willow prairie
#

which one is the good heavy sword again

#

as in least dogshit

tame lodge
#

Essentially they are all the same

#

But you're probably looking for the mk9

hollow ibex
#

tame lodge
#

It just looks better than the others

willow prairie
#

man im washed

willow prairie
#

i died twice to burster

hollow ibex
willow prairie
#

its that bad

sharp epoch
#

imagine dying in darktide

hot thorn
#

what now?

buoyant aurora
#

That feeling when youre doorcamping and the game spawns 4 bursters behind it

hybrid plover
buoyant aurora
#

You're right, next time I should just toss a shredder instead as it works through the door 🤔

#

Elevate the door camping strats

inner iris
#

do opening salvo and lock and loaded (clip size) have synergy with each other?

#

like the the opening salvo portion increase with the increased clip size

#

or any the base clip before the increase

hollow ibex
inner iris
#

probably true

#

im just a bit obessed with ammo maxing my lasguns

hollow ibex
#

Lasguns already have such good Econ with shock trooper that it’s just not needed

tame lodge
#

Fuck it

#

This seasons got me fucked up

I admit
I used AI to generate Dilara saying that

hollow ibex

Since stacks don’t decay from movement anymore

quick seal
wild vortex

at least it doesn't make me want to uninstall

blazing jetty
#

Stacks decay regardless of movement, but they do so way slower now

quick seal
hollow ibex
#

Or get stacks

#

And melee a horde

#

You don’t need ranged kills

blazing jetty
#

Also melee attacks delay the decay

#

I mean melee weakspot hits

any weak spot hit does :)

any gun benefits from it

If you’re not doing penance cheese

#

The keystone playstyle makes perfect sense

#

And works well

stuck gorge
#

can’t hellbore onetap crushers with mmf and a few other buffs

blazing jetty
#

I like using bolter with marksman's focus

#

Pops heads pretty consistently

#

And the iron sights are easy to work with

hollow ibex

#

What penance was all headshots for an entire round? I can't recall...

stuck gorge
#

Skirmisher as a whole is kinda iffy for me

#

Sure it’s 25% but like I just don’t dodge slide frequently for it to remain active

hollow ibex
#

It’s not bad

swift river
#

I just remember that you could cheese it by disconnecting and reconnecting right at the end, headshot like one or two dudes, and then be off

hollow ibex
#

The uptime is good

#

And the damage is stupid strong

mortal aspen

i think it's 8s, right?

Only dodge slide while shooting. Like all true action heroes

also improve the power falchion blessings

oh right I should've tested point blank so longshot was giving the minimum damage boost too

hot thorn

hollow ibex
#

Too lazy to test again

slow sky
#

honest to god

slow sky
#

i think hotshot is better than weight of fire

calm shard
#

yeah prob

calm shard
#

helbore hits like a freight train full charged or not

#

I rarely actually fire it more than half charge just because it kills anyways

hollow ibex
#

OK that’s true on mk4

slow sky
#

hotshot basically ensures you get a double kill if theyre lined up, or a random guy doesnt block a shot

#

and yeah its on the slowest charging one

#

tbh idk why youd use the others cuz half charging exists

hollow ibex
#

MkV is a beast

#

Honestly think the middle child is the worst off rn

swift river
#

I honestly prefer the IIIa just for the melee attack...

calm shard
#

MkV and IIIa have the same melee

surreal rune
#

what is

#

the mk4's melee good for

spark helm
#

Mk4 for what?

I don't remember most of these marks.

hollow ibex

#

Ah. Idk

#

I hate the bayonets.

swift river

How can you hate the bayonets, they're so useful

#

Annoying zombie in the way and don't want to swtich to melee? Bayonet

#

Stun ragers? Bayonet

tame lodge
#

Mk4s bayonet is just weird

swift river
#

The slash is horrible

tame lodge
#

But alas, can't be good at everything

swift river
#

Also, definitely get the Legacy of Vraks skin while it's up. The iron sights are so much better >.<

wild vortex
#

I still find it insane we can't just add sights / flashlights to our weapons

#

it's so stupid lol

orchid hemlock
swift river
#

As cool as helbore is though, I still prefer running Recon Las

#

Hmm... Experimenting with builds and the only thing that really gives me trouble is the armored ogryns...

calm shard
#

have you tried shooting them with the helbore

#

's how I kill them

#

or kraks

swift river
#

Eh, still takes 2-4 shots with Helbore...

calm shard
#

have you tried shooting them like...harder

#

also even 2 shotting them with MkV is a LOT OF DAMAGE

#

oh it doesn't need marksman to two sot

#

Okay MkV I didn't know you were built like that

hollow ibex
#

lol yeah mkv fucking wrecks

heavy rover
#

damn, mk V, I apologize for giving it shit

#

I wasn't aware of your game

calm shard
#

it just uuuuuh

#

does that I guess

void dragon
#

what maps you think having smoke in havoc is must?

sonic kayak
#

All of em chadgryn

#

If you're not managing without smokes, then quite simply, the team is bad/Ogryn isn't doing his job chadgryn

tame lodge
#

What are the ones in rotation

#

Silo Cluster (best map in the game) is the infamous "what the hell is cover 🗣️ " map

dapper coyote
heavy rover
#

only time i'm not running smokes on havoc is when it's purple (encroaching garden)

#

if that happens, then I switch to krak grenades

tame lodge
dapper coyote
#

No gimmicks, just you, 3 other idiots, and the boss

swift river
#

What level is that?

calm shard
#

auric

swift river
#

No no, the meat grinder, what difficulty?

calm shard
#

yeah

#

auric

#

so damnation

swift river
#

Man, I dunno... I'm just not gettin that kinda damage 😄

calm shard
#

oh wait for the uh

#

mk v I run armourbane instead of weight of fire

heavy rover
#

armourbane gang chadgryn

swift river
#

You didn't have armourbane in that video though

tame lodge
#

Yeah because that was a 1 shot

#

Casual bane L

#

As always

swift river
#

I can't pull 6500 😄
All my shots are doing between 2000 and 2500

calm shard

#

I have a very stupid idea...

#

To make a build... Focused on Bolt Rifle and all the grenades

#

Or bolter, rather

hybrid plover

I don't bring smokes. 😢

first, what weapons?

obtuse finch
#

boltpistol, knife

hybrid plover
#

i gotchu

#

question

#

are you using lethal prox on bistol

obtuse finch
#

yeah

hybrid plover
#

i suppose another thing really

#

what exactly is the build intended for?

#

like, difficulty wise

#

cuz i could change it accordingly for that

dapper coyote
#

Chat asking about the Focus keystone, does it also stack upon other bonuses like bring it down and superiority complex?

calm shard
#

be a bit weird if it didn't

dapper coyote
#

Aight, that's flat 50% more dmg towards bosses and ogryns then

#

Also is competitive urge good?

I think its one of those gambler nodes

hollow ibex
#

win more talent

#

there are better choices

dapper coyote
#

Also what does covert operator meant by "ranged backstab attacks"?

#

Is it shooting at the back or is it melee

hollow ibex
#

shooting in the back yeah

#

meme talent

dapper coyote
#

Lol

#

That's fucking weird and funny

hollow ibex
#

good for burgle i guess lol

dapper coyote
#

The Backshots node

#

Quite literally

modern swallow
#

Is the helbore any good?

dapper coyote
#

Yes

#

Havoc viable

calm shard
#

on any class

modern swallow
#

Yall ain't messing with me are you?

dapper coyote
#

No

hollow ibex
#

helbore is very good yeah

modern swallow
#

I remember this gun being considered horrible a few weeks ago before the veteran changes

calm shard
#

it honestly was still good back then it was just fucking awful to use xd

dapper coyote
#

Correct build and enough skills allowed you to get 6k per shot

modern swallow
dapper coyote
#

It is awful due to its sight

calm shard
#

6K per shot is not correct build damage for helbore

#

correct build damage for helbore is more like 9K into carapace

#

20K+ into everything else

dapper coyote
#

It can be more

#

But its awful to use because of its awful sights for some people

calm shard
#

the sights were changed to be less bad recently

dapper coyote
#

With a bit of practice or modding

#

You can negate this issue

modern swallow
#

Welp

calm shard
#

the weapon customization mod had to be rewritten and the sight offsets are all wrong

modern swallow
#

Guess I'm dying on Vraks now

calm shard
#

the sights thing isn't a problem anymore

dapper coyote
#

Not all, Combat shotguns still have that issue

#

Wrong zeros

calm shard
#

they just gave the helbores the infantry autogun irons and removed their old unique ones xd

dapper coyote
#

Because its so awful

orchid hemlock
midnight wyvern
#

good competition on the top end

steep flower
dapper coyote
#

The centre dot is where the bullets SHOULD go for, but for combat shotguns its the top bit in the circle

#

Yellow is where the combat shotgun is zeroed at, the red is where other guns is zeroed at, (you need to zoom in because i highlighted it)

vestal arch
#

Is the SpearHead Bolter a decent weapon against elite mobs?

narrow frost
#

yes

#

it has good single target damage

#

good for sniping

vestal arch
#

I see, im kinda new in this game and looking for builds but I heard multiple people saying that gameslantern isnt the place to find some builds

narrow frost
#

They would be correct in that regard

#

its alot of outdated, incorrect information

#

and is often build only for their playstyle

#

which doesnt translate easily when you copy and paste their build

#

This chat is a good place to ask but dont forget no build that others give will fit your playstyle perfectly

#

so its good to experiment

vestal arch
#

Oh, that does have a point

#

atleast it serve as a reference

dapper coyote
#

We have the ultra violence builders, we have the railgun builders

vestal arch
#

Im sort of confused on what you said

dapper coyote
#

There's alot of diverse builds depending on playstyle

dapper coyote
vestal arch
#

huh, I see

#

well I want to survive a bit longer and go toe to toe on elites without heavily relying on teammates

#

while dealing some damage

narrow frost
#

Okay, one sec

dapper coyote
#

Well thankfully, that this class is jack of all trades

#

Sort of

narrow frost
#

This is a good framework

#

With 3 extra talents

#

You can switch nades and aura to whatever

#

Know that with krak grenades you will need the extra damage for nades to 1 tap crushers in havoc if I remember correctly

dapper coyote
#

I'd change the FI to serrated blades imo

narrow frost
#

FI is more applicable

#

But serrated is good for some weapons, yes

dapper coyote
#

True but i feel FI is once a while becomes a clutch

jaunty sphinx
#

How it feels to slam plasma down a crowded corridor

dapper coyote
#

Serated blades just gives you fat DPS for all melee

dapper coyote
#

I heard the light one is the best one

#

But that's awhile already

frigid shuttle
#

hmm

dapper coyote
#

MkV i think is the light one

hollow ibex
#

V or IV

#

IV is heavy V is light

#

I think III hasn’t aged as well though it’s still not bad obviously

dapper coyote
#

The IV sucked at its bayonet

#

Ngl, bayonet can be a clutch at doorways or chockpoints

#

I did have way more kill with the bayonet than the gun itself when i used HB

frigid shuttle
#

seems accurate to me at 43m

#

what fov do you play at?

#

yeah, same for the other optic as well

#

actually idk, even if I put weapon fov to 120, it still hits where the dot is.

how are you supposed to use the plasma gun? im currently trying to mastery it, and i just Dont Get It. Is it just only for Ogryns? Is there some psyker style heat loop im missing?

#

(i am a psyker main)

distant mural
#

Yeah

#

Imo it succs

#

But its strong i guess and havoc viable or somth

#

I prefer bolters or laser weapons

turbid ibex
#

Its for sniping elites and specialists while also getting a bunch of fodder as collateral damage

potent patio
turbid ibex
#

Also dont even bother with the charged shot

#

Just spam left click

silver patrol
#

there is not much to master

potent patio
silver patrol
#

you must get the right talents and the right plasmagun build

potent patio
#

currently using what seems to be an average havoc40 build everyone is posting variants of

turbid ibex
#

Plun also wants a really specific stat distribution

silver patrol
#

it doesn't really want a specific stat distribution, there is barely any difference between 71% charge rate and 60%

turbid ibex
silver patrol
#

yeah i mean

turbid ibex
#

69% is just enough that you can squeeze an extra m1 shot before it becomes a problem

silver patrol
#

if you just dump charge rate, it's works anyway

#

that distribution above is optimal but there is not much difference compared to a 60% charge rate one

#

you shoot like 0.05 seconds faster

potent patio
sonic kayak
#

That's melee or nades

silver patrol
#

yeah don't shoot bulwarks or crushers

#

waste of ammo

sonic kayak
#

You could shoot ragers and mauler bodies in a pinch

silver patrol
#

in auric, ragers die in one hit with a headshot

#

maulers should be twoshots irrc

#

you should prob just shoot them if they aren't in your face

#

they like to do choochoo trains too so

sonic kayak
#

Idk I don't play Auric these days, mostly Havoc KEKW_ogryn

silver patrol
#

what does that stand for

potent patio
#

dueling sword?

turbid ibex
#

D-ueling sw-ord

silver patrol
#

never saw it abbreviated like that, usually it's ds

#

otherwise, this is basically the build everyone uses no (talentwise)?

turbid ibex
silver patrol
#

it does talk more about krak below

turbid ibex
#

Unyielding on plun???

#

Crit chance on dord????

silver patrol
#

oh i ignore the weapon stuff

potent patio
silver patrol
#

i wouldn't take thrust on it either

turbid ibex
#

Stamina regen on curios is also a weird pick

silver patrol
#

yeah why not toughness

turbid ibex
#

Or gunner resist

distant mural
#

But not new

silver patrol
#

right it has no resist

distant mural
#

Like it allways was

silver patrol
#

i think the author's logic is that you are spamming VoC

turbid ibex
silver patrol
#

but not on this economy

distant mural
turbid ibex
distant mural
silver patrol
#

bro you must be taking the piss with these abbreviations

potent patio
distant mural
#

But ds was allways meta

sly orchid
#

also thrust on dueling sword instead of relentless strikes

distant mural
#

Duelling sword is ass

#

Its overrated

sly orchid
#

taxe vet is a better pick for melee

potent patio
silver patrol
#

i mean, the problem is the plasma gun for you right now no?

distant mural
turbid ibex
#

I just think they sound funny

potent patio
#

yea dueling sword is fine, i honestly swapped it for the falchion cause i gotta mastery it too and its doing well enough

distant mural
distant mural

turbid ibex
#

Helbore is also really good for more gun-centric builds

distant mural
#

It actually is

turbid ibex
potent patio
#

Fair enough, i remember it was insane at launch, got nerfed and was pretty aight, did they buff it again?

distant mural
#

The reason people love the duelling sword so much is because its super duper safe

#

And kills crushers good

potent patio
#

Not as good has power hammer

turbid ibex
distant mural
#

But psword can do that too AND shred hordes

turbid ibex
#

And with the vet rework gigabuffing melee it has only become even more insane

potent patio
#

whats the falchions meta status?

turbid ibex
#

Its alright

#

Nowhere near the meta

potent patio
#

good enough for me

distant mural
#

Screw ze meta play whats fun

turbid ibex
#

True

potent patio
#

true

turbid ibex
#

Pord is just that good

# potent patio whats the falchions meta status?

Very much so falls behind but can work just fine up to aurics. Works well in builds taking exestance and weapon specialist in my experience. Haven't had a chance yet to feel out its limits in havoc.

Im slightly sad I can no longer onetap crushers with the mk7 shovel

#

Wish they brought that back

distant mural
#

But dont carry any bottlecaps

distant mural
#

Or ill tk you

crisp oak
#

On auric crushers

calm shard
#

yeah I didn't even have to change anything from my gun vet build

#

does have to be a crit though but only barely

ocean bramble
#

wow that's without the 20% ogryn damage boost

#

whatttt

calm shard
#

yeah I honestly kind of expected it to need it

#

but decided to test it on gun vet first anyways

#

only using easily applicable damage boosts

#

actually I wonder if you can do it without marksman if you go melee vet with FT

ocean bramble
#

why would marksman make a difference? it gives ranged finesse damage no?

#

i unironically don't understand how you're doing that much damage lol im messing with it rn

calm shard
#

okay but that was a crit

calm shard
ocean bramble
#

is this with thrust or limbsplitter?

calm shard
#

which is calculated last in damage calculation

#

(so it gives a fucking enormous damage boost)

thorn lark
#

Ranged?

calm shard
#

or uh

#

not ranged strength

#

weakspot strength

#

my brain is very small

thorn lark
#

Ye

calm shard
#

oh yeah easy

ocean bramble
#

but it says ranged finesse strength, am i stupid? does it just lie and affect melee damage? (wouldn't be the first time tbf)

#

well i suppose i can find out real quick lmfao

calm shard
#

ohp wait I have a mod that changes descriptions lemme turn that off

ocean bramble
#

oh im fuckin braindead, sorry

#

i thought you were referring to marksman's focus

calm shard
#

so yeah 100% still can

#

and can easily infact

thorn lark
#

I should use marksman more in my exec builds

calm shard
#

it's not actually that useful

thorn lark
#

Overdmg?

calm shard
#

it helps with boss damage, and if you REALLY hate crushers while using the bolter/helbore

#

but otherwise oh no you one shot them even harder now

#

greaaaaaat

thorn lark
#

Hmmm even in havoc?

calm shard
#

You would need marksman for havoc crushers but maybe

slow spade
#

Sadly the weapons that could benefit like Recon have terrible finesse

thorn lark
calm shard
#

marksman gives strength

tame lodge
dapper coyote
#

Chat tac axe dump stat is?

calm shard
#

who's this "chat"

tame lodge
#

The tactical Axe itself

#

(it's probably mobility)

#

Damage, Penetration, Critical Bonus, Finesse

#

Yeah the dump is 100% mobility

crisp oak
slow spade
#

I'll give Recon Marksmen Focus a try

calm shard
#

it literally says it does that

#

this is "people can't fucking read"

#

not on fatshark

#

for once

calm shard
crisp oak
#

Oh

#

Is that uncanny thrust then?

thorn lark
queen fox
#

Whats the optimal plasma gun stat spread?

#

I remember it was 72 and 68 in some stats, forgot which

Clearly an imposter

His real name is "Veterans guide pending"

Pending since last year

slow spade
#

Not "strength"

#

Recon is notorious for bad finesse

thorn lark
#

we were talking about marksman the talent and not the keystone

slow spade
#

I did say "Marksmen Focus" in a message to be sure

#

Such is life

calm shard
#

you did not say it initially

#

so I assumed you were talking about the talent Marksman

slow spade
#

Indeed that was my bad

Marksman Deez 😈

# thorn lark

@tall torrent when he looks at the source code 😔

slow spade
#

I should dive into the code one day

#

Seems interesting some of the stuff people dig up

#

Didn't know sliding affected damage taken for the longest time

thorn lark
#

and differently on each class

#

tbh, you should just start by reading kuli's guide

hollow ibex
#

man

#

agri/vraks IAG on a ranged focused build

#

is so insane

calm shard
#

why wouldn't it?

hollow ibex
#

well it's not quite that good

#

but they both feel way better than vigilants to use ngl

#

i know vigilants theoretically have better ttks

#

but in an actual match you'll still be hitting the body at times

umbral scaffold
#

guys, is there some kind of rotation in the missions or whats up wit hit?

hollow ibex
#

and souped up IAGs fucking shred so quickly already

calm shard
#

has to 2 shot reapers, 3 shot bulwrks, and like

#

8 shot crushers

hollow ibex
#

yeah

#

so trash

calm shard
#

yeah

umbral scaffold
calm shard
#

the ammo economy simply is not there

umbral scaffold
#

not like the map types

#

but enemy types

#

cuz i kinda doubt theyre random

hollow ibex
#

it's tied to maps

umbral scaffold
#

are they?

safe jacinth
# thorn lark

trying to build a plasma gun like that is super annoying, i’d rather just build it like a psyker staff tbh

#

(i never get those stats)

turbid ibex
#

wdym like a psyker staff

umbral scaffold
#

not even that many of them.🤣

I love melk bucks :D

hollow ibex

the only reason i care is because i'll prob have to dump 50k milkbucks into the new class for curios

void dragon
slow spade
#

Yeah melk curios are the only useful thing so far

lapis osprey
#

Any suggestions on what I can improve here for a H40 recon exec stance build(idk why guess i just wanna mag dump)

#

tac axe helps with mobility and kraks help with armor

hollow ibex
#

Take FT

#

You’re also not going to have shit for toughness. Good luck thumbsup_ogryn

lapis osprey
orchid hemlock
#

Not taking reciprocity is very sus even if you are taking MF

#

MF is by far the worst keystone on recon

vapid thunder
#

should i name my veteran puppygirlwithagun

viscid sparrow
#

was just in a match with yet another example of "vet gaming" (just shooting everything in melee range...)

hollow ibex
#

Was he using a recon lasgun mk XII?

viscid sparrow
sharp epoch
viscid sparrow
#

he was also mag dumping into crushers at melee range and doing nothing to them as a result... (also, he took a LOT of poxbursters to the face)

inner iris
#

recon lasgun is so cringe imo, yeah ik its meta

#

having a rapid fire lasgun feels like it invalides the autoguns

calm shard
#

do you know how much damage the autoguns do

#

just like

#

ballpark estimate of their dps

mortal aspen
#

iag shreds crushers

calm shard
#

and everything else yes

mortal aspen
#

compared to recon, which tickles them even with onslaught

hollow ibex
mortal aspen
#

but recon is infinite ammo, so there's that

hollow ibex
viscid sparrow
#

we ended up wiping because that vet got overwhelmed, one of our two psykers ran into melee and got surrounded constantly, and the only one besides me who showed any amount of carefulness was the SG Smiteker (who downed to a poxburster).

I got downed as the last one standing while trying to rush to the next respawn area. as a taunt ogryn...

what do you guys take for your gun

In no order

I love the lasgun. Not saying I win much but its a fun way to die for the emperor.

serene bough
#

Its honestly not that terrible of a gun its just not very viable with the meta shift recently

#

It needs buffs to damage and recoil reduction (and maybe larger hitbox)

tame lodge
#

Just on a weird spot

#

(again)

Its also oddly nerfed by things that caused mass suppression like the flame staff since everyone's tucking their heads all damn game lol

when ogryn tho?

yeah it be like that

Skirmisher Nerf will be so it only buff melee so all veteran's cry of fear is heard in the steam reviews

i wouldnt even mind i hate having to slide randomly just to keep the stacks

#

i dont think its unbalanced either

faint beacon
#

I’ll be surprised if they nerf it tbh seeing it made of lot of the lukewarm weapons pretty solid but obviously the overachievers are over achieving

#

I’m more so in the boat of talents should be swapped into different spots

fervent citrus
#

outta my own curiosity: has everyone's perk trees reset with bound by duty came out

faint beacon
#

Yeah

sharp epoch
#

i think everyone but ogryn

Actually yeah

#

I was about to say Arb

#

But arb was hit also

#

Literally only Ogryn survived

what do you mean the fuck

tame lodge

They reset every time they move stuff around

silver patrol
#

shouldn't have been resetted for arbites

#

but everyone else had to be resetted

tame lodge
#

Yeah the Arby's part is weird

fervent citrus
#

oh right they changed the talent trees for every class but arbites

silver patrol
#

yeah i think they just did it accidentally or something

fervent citrus
#

WAIT THEN WHY WAS ARBITE'S reset

fair shale
#

I imagine it was easier to tick a reset all button than reset all but arb

silver patrol
#

but ogryn wasn't resetted

Oh?

well it's gonna take me a bit out of time to rebuild my shit again but oh well

hopefully my laspistol build can be salvaged

arbites did get some nerfs, maybe they were planning on moving some talents but didn't ?

but anyway, fatshark

because arby had it coming
