I'd try Frontline exe just using it for awareness and revolver pick shots but
I'm a day too late
Should I upload my vet h40 on release saying worlds 1st scum 40 clear
Yes
I got u, it looks smth like this
Temu Hive Scum
Wsit
Good title
I gotta remember
I think I used Psword stace with combat shotgun
I am glad to have made a contribution to an Ainz video
I assume it works with tac axe
same, it is so comfy
Kinda?
I don't like voc anymore
Stance is too fun
U just lose a lot of dps in comparison
Idk I just don't wanna use power sword I've never liked the loop it has
It is fully playable tho
Its also icky strong
I don’t like power sword
Just doesn't mesh with me
literal only reason to not use power sword on every build is if you're a concientious objector
I use chainsword
Vroom vroom 
I am a conscientious objector
Pretty much
Nah there is one actual reason
my reason is that it looks fugly
The dodges suck
I think heavy sword was like 2s worse on 50 pox when I tested, and nowhere as good on mixed horde
Alternatives for Pswords for me is Chaxe, Csword, Caxe, Taxe, and good old imperial issued Glasgow Knoif
Shovel....
Shovel doesn't have the mixed clear speed I'd want
Chaxes when im beyond brain dead and just spam light attack and rev it when there's something heavy or armored
Idk it's fared for me just fine with mixed horde clear other than crushers
And I guess maybe dreg ragers because it's a little icky on maniacs but that's why you just thrust em right in their dome and stagger em
I use chainsword cus it makes serotonin when I rev hit enemies with it
I just spammed M1 and i lived, gud enuff i ges
huffs glue
Crushers - the bane of variety
True
Chainaxe would be perfect if the saw rip atks did way more first target damage
yeah
Chainsword is fun. I wish it was better.
Mk IV lights hit like a freight train as is but they should do more
I think XII is better tbh
I don't disagree
would u like some crayons with that? I have purple and yellow
But I have personal preference for Mk IV because of those lights
Still being cleave damage capped sucks
I use knife too
are you british?
Is kayOn FunI aS GlUe CaNS?
Infantry Lasgun & knife
Executioner stance
Standard flak armor
^ quintessential guardsmen loadout
Knife highkey one of vet's best options tbh
This is the universe where Technically every one British
Damn there really is no god up here but me (the 3 good vet weapons)
Tac axe or cutlass it is
There's honestly more than 3
What’s the 3
and not going full krieg?
what the-
Power sword, knife and DS?
Cringe Krieg are more french than German aktually
The issue is that power sword is one of them and power sword's gap from the others is huge
They’re a mishmash of several WW1 iconography 🤓
I just picked three
I'm referring like
Caxe, psword, and something
opens can of ration
checks out
I eated all the rations
knife, tac axe, dueling sword (as much as I hate to say it)
Never used
combat axe is reliable
caxe does exactly what you expect it to do
Combat axe is not balanced
Look I like the sword cuz it’s a sword I like Chainsword cuz it’s. Chainsword. A man has tastes. Don’t give shit what’s op or not lol
It’s perhaps the least balanced shared melee in the game
Caxe being balanced is a certified power creep statement
How can I minmaxx my grunthood?
I suppose if we're talking serrated, shovel does kinda shoot up into being pretty alright if only because uncanny exists
That shit is not ok
Better curios
what's the setup on the knife
Curios is too much semantics for me I don’t bother
Hey you asked
I moreso meant the aesthetic
Its for the drip
switch uniform, this one has too many imperial seals

Better you go for #darktide-driptide
I think it can rly use a rework
For the drip tips
The answer stands, fish for three Obsidiax Sheathed Bullets (with the stats you want)
I mean, if aesthetic wise, you seem just fine honestly
Great question girliepop
nah but I am curious about the knife tho
I've been seeing some
questionable knife setups in auric lately 
never enough shovel, there are always trenches and latrines that need digging
Someone wielding a shovel would be noteworthy
me 
Yeah and the shovels can stay with the supply train
The goal is to be minimally exceptional 😩
bruh I thought every body has to wield a shovel, whether they want to or not
I hate you
You can't even use a shovel on half the worlds you get deployed to
Ban all shovel humpers
I only use it for its legitimate niche on my dbarrel build
reminds me of when I was a conscript in the army. Didnt get no fancy military knife, but I got a shovel 😭
we did a lot of digging
Knife is also more straightforward to use as a weapon than a shovel
Before you get busy crunching scum for the next week could you send me this tree?
I’m actually not gonna get to play much until Sunday
Exams are up
Shit sucks
Couldn’t afford the textbook with the password for my exam in it so I failed
Damn
last point into whatever u like
I went 25% reserve ammo
I have more clips with it lol
Might run this semi hipster with cutlass and agrivolver
Why is your fov insane??
Because 120 is normal
Never changed my settings
Oouuughh
game slider only allows 85 max
I would very much recommend you do that
How do you play at base fov
I genuinely get motion sickness playing this game at base FoV lmao

u need to change user_settings.config file to modify vfov above 85
I'm one of those freaks who plays stuff at like 135
Got that square monitor exposure training
or mod yea
I’m on console
unfortunate
I’m getting a Gabecube
stance activation doesn't turn falchion off btw
not sure why
also stance has a weird bug with always prepared
if u have 0 ammo in gun, but AP would reload 1 into it to have the gun be rdy to fire
and u press F to equip gun
it will actually force u into reload animation even tho ur gun will have 1 ammo post-equip
I have no idea why this happens and I haven't reported it yet
Some weird order of operations garbage probably
Force wield into force reload on empty going before always prepared activating
this is for vet
haven't done breakpoints on other classes
surgical + PB is best possible crit chance for how u'll use it
run&gun gives hilarious hipfire acuracy esp with stance
PB is the best crit blessing for it imo
Run n gun is the plan for laser hipfire on agri
Yeah unyielding is just for the love of the game on agri
but the fanfire revolver is pretty bad
Trickshooter is interesting though
if the +25% mag size talent was swapped with GBITF
I think it'd be a better gun pick for vet
Oh I forgot trickshooter was strength
I thought it was a pitiful weakspot bonus or smth
buff volvers
yeah I'd prob run that over serrated blade
for more gun maximization
I sent playtester 3 simple fixes to vet tree that'd immediately make it much better
hopefully all 3 get applied in 2026 lol
can u send playtesters better blessings bro every single time we get a weapon it's just the same like "3 good blessings and the rest are ass" 💀 💀 💔 💔

no
I sent them these:
right side's +25 TGH node swap with +1 stam
iron will swap with field improv
krak baseline instakill override within blast center
just make it a perk that gives like +30% impact
or something like that
have it replace crit damage perk
My plasma gun was blown up, but i have another plasma pistol!
dude really is playing on the edge with double plasmas
tbf even if playtesters were to suggest blessing changes/overhauls it'd be entirely dependent on fatshark having the bandwidth and inclination to do anything with it
like blessings need their own patch at this point ngl
the one from Valve?
oooo, pog, I already like Mk3 folding shovel but this is interesting
wonder how it's gonna feel
Upcoming?
If so yeah
Called it
Shovel buffs because trench
I'm so fucking good at this

Has anyone here used the uptime mod to check the uptime on Vet's Competitve Urge talent?
Wait wait wait
We can now obtain Aquilas
Praise the emperor,
I believe we bitched alot during previous event (rashuns) that we didn't get any Aquilas
wait what's going on?
only gonna happen during special events
GODDAMMIT
can't they just pull a HD2 and make it so you can find 10 a mission or something???
they are owned by tencent so no
rage
rip vet #2, I need space for the s c u m
why
because I want to play with variety of voices and fits
Don't you can just pay krall for the voices and fits?
Hey krall, make me forgot who am i,
OF COURSE, DEAR CUSTOMER! (knocks you unconscious and Sends you to Sefoni)
Did they reseted the builds of veteran? Do I have to do all those builds AGAIN when no real change was made for it?
or I just have two characters, there was space available so
Probably
I haven't checked yet
It's because they made it so you don't have to unselect a good amount of stuff to change a single talent
all trees were reset on all characters
On ALL characters?!
me builds... Me precious builds
I cry

Ah shit, fortunately i only have one Characters with one build lmao
Lucky
Is it really easier than spending 50k dockets once in a while?
Dang, oh well I only needed to redo like every character except ones build regardless
yes because I don't have to redo my character every time lol
Im expanding to Ogryn / Zealot but im still playing vet for resources and there's only one build im using for the vet lmao
It's Cole's DB build
Slightly modified but its basically carbon copy of his build
Cole's DB build is so bonkers, proof that Veteran is busted beyond understanding
it's so cool
Sniped a fucking Sniper 30 meters away amidst killing a crowd
It also doesn't have Precision Strikes so I'm going to look at it weird
But how much extra time did you spend by leveling and gearing other characters? And also all options persist during scourge so you can skip to personality change without changing your character. It takes less then a minute
Fucking losing it
I mean I want one male and one female of most classes
think someone mentioned the plasma gun is technically like a downscaled version of the marine's plasma pistol
Same with the Bolter, human versions of those weapons exist so we puny humans don't die from pulling the trigger
Heavy Plasma Gun
It's still a bit weird motivation, but afaik there are mods that increased character limit to a bit bigger amount that is currently allowed in game, however I don't know if you are using it already
16 CET
Loose cannon DLC?
im gonna let you figure this one out yourself brother
Hive scum, basically Loose cannon best friend

same problem here 2 zealot 2 vet 2 arby 1 oggy and 1 smyker . no slots avaible bruuuuuh
A more unlucky unworthy human than that one that tried to swing a chaplain Crozius Arcanum (even with power armor she went to the hospital from a single swing)
it's the feeling of going from driving a forklift to operating and fixing an industrial crusher

is the vigilaint autogun good ? or should I use the infantry lasgun ?
or the quickdraw revolver
and in that case too, combat axe or combat blade ?
Vigis are good
alright thanks
Zarona Revolver is like the best ranged weapon in the game
(outside of havoc)
Rashad Combat Axe is too good but you might need some extra talents for it
Knife is also good
Preferably mk6
Whatever you do, do not mk 3 on vet and psyker.
Yes and Yes
so long Torbjörn, welcome back Torbjörn
Next class: Inquisitor Grendyl himself
Try the heavy sword
ok
they forgot the voice changer on the red one
lol. i like furry girls
One more teammate needed. Power leveling hive scum. Strike Team 9
based
is that dess
Yes
Lol first no man's land mission and it's all veterans 
Truly fitting
F
I'd post the screenshot but I guess I don't rate yet 😭
My group are doing it as all Kriegers with Helbores
it didn't reset for you?
I havent played darktide in a bit ive been busy over the holiday
And currently at work lol

yea imagine playing darktide smh
I should have neglected all of my other duties and did my service to the Emperor
aww even my gifs don't work 😭
Anyway true words S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 
ITS TRUE
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA
I have joined the trend :
Glad I kept my transcendant Helbore too 😄
guys can anyone explain what the veteran role is?
trying it out after Zealot and I ain't feeling it at all. pretty clueless what to do
u kill specialists and do a fuck ton of damage
Melee/ranged hybrid combat, mid-long range precision takedown
ayo? whats good
thats what I do with zealot daggers and a dueling sword lol
I'm an impasta though because my vet is going to keep screaming about cadia 😂
Veterans role is killing ranged elites and specialists
Noone does that better than Vet
Not only does Vet does it faster than anyone, he can also do it more often than anyone, due to his ammo economy
How much damage does a krak grenade do to monstrosities?
Idk. A good amount plus enough stagger to throw another
You can kill a monstrosity with just nades
A lot
I know it is a lot. I would like the actual number since I can't try it out in the psykhanium or anything. xd
Opinions on anthro deer girls
Yippee
shikanoko nokonoko
Fat anthro deer girls 💅
Or you can do that better with Veteran

Hell you can even 1 shot crushers with the dueling sword parry
Consistently
Kill dueling sword users with rocks 😤
Which is very funny
Respectable
yeah except you just die if you make a mistake
you need to make 3 mistakes in a row to die as zealot
Not really
Veteran's role isnt being invincible bro
One trapper can kill you
i am sorry if me not getting gud yet offends you xD
i just need to understand what direction to get gud
aint seeing it
top build on gameslantern
gameslantern

Do these look appealing to u
where to find builds?
veteran squad leader

weapons? blessings?
Hold on
Fuckin Falchion
💀
Power sword VI
Cleave targets dump
Unyielding
Carapace
Power cycler
Sunder
power sword mk 6, Rashad combat axe, tac axe, combat knife, etc etc all work
Gun can vary a lot
Most guns are fairly good for veteran
lasgun my beloved
i use recon with power falchion
blud cannot make a build to save his life 💔 💔 💔
This is remarkable
I'm still laughing at lock and loaded plasma
It's from here
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9a565016-bd70-4fe0-8c82-1080bc73412e/veteran-squad-leader
Skipped entire bottom right section
Skipped both +25 toughness nodes
Went bottom left and somehow skipped stamina regen delay
bro put maniac unyielding on his plas 💔 💔 💔
Oh no
Got the talents wrong
It's not lock and loaded
What a relief
It's just kill zone
Yeah with a build like that
I definitely see that person not getting what's great about vet
well thanks for enlightening me in the end lol
how tf is a casual player new to the class supposed to know whats viable
You just got gameslantern'd lol
Just ask here
All the nerds and sweats are here
ask our lord and savior path ig idk
Uh
Oh that makes sense now 😭
No bottom right
Throw it in the trash
🗑️
That build is everywhere 😭
what changed in vet talents

Nothing
Trees reset because you don't need to unselect a good amount of stuff to change a single talent
Ok so
You need to
Do your own research 😩
Tbh this is advice for everything in life
If you don't understand why something is good, then it probably isn't 😔
@distant dune For some reason, I want to recommend Melody Nosurname to you. She's one of my favorite tubers.
Like ones that actually do it out of passion.
You have me intrigued!
Only video I'd be wary about not because its problematic but just that it contains slurs but that one is overall very funny to me
She's so silly
Also don't call her a dog shes a deer
I love them already :3
Nothing
All class talent builds reset because they changed talent tree to enable backwards tweaks
Has anyone ever documented the performance loss of different mods, like damage numbers
Most aren’t much
It’s more about stability than memory usage
Powerdi is the worst offender
Does the game launch with mods? I reset my pc last night so I'm wondering if I messed something up
Mod loader (and some mods) are currently broken
Ah ok
I actually have least issues with it lol
There’s a fix out for it (temporary)
I’ll cry
hey guys what was my vet build? fatshark stole it
Nice tash you've got there Kayla
Everything got reset 😭
Can’t have shit in Tertium
Tac axe + helbore, take MF on top of the vet skeleton build
i have 1 point to pick between onslaught and rending strikes which one should i pick
Onslaught is shit
gotta say, they lowkey made Rotten Armors harder IN GENERAL lol
at least Bolters can kill them a bit faster, but BOI it now counts into melee is quite sth.
lol yeah crazy decision
anyone else having bugged psword sound?
It’s a known issue with power weapons
anyone getting this bug(?) in skilltree? I just cant seem to get the skilltree on PROFILES to stick...
Team needs to focus em down one by one.
weapon swap speed seems like a must have when using the helbore
Do kriegsmen havw boltguns?
has exec stance been made irrelevant by desperado
No
This is time sensitive chat!!
free wall hacks is pretty hard to pass up
wall hack?
they have heavy bolters fwiw
for what its worth
Does the bolter in game count
sure
Exe stance gives auras of all elites and specialist along with anyone with a gun or all Ogryns and monstrosities
My group and I are doing the mission as all Kriegsmen and I have been assigned to anti tank
can desperado have infinite kraks
I'm just saying, it didn't really have the intended effects FS had in mind with the new change lol.
Only thing I could find is that Kreig captains get bolt pistols
so close enough
Go balling
well yes but also its like, desperado can do everything that exec can
Go 3 kriegsmen with helbores and 1 with bolt pistol as commissar
Power falcion or chainsword for the captain?
a shame we don't have this skin though
vet has just really good ammo economy on their own tbf
Power falchion!
yeah
the weakspot damage is still nice
Nope
Desperado by itself grants no real buffs to your ranged
While exec grants you a shit ton of buffs
This tbh
Damage, impact, handling, spread
but once you take one of those side grade nodes it can
While you just have to pick exec
Don't worry vet enjoyers we're getting hotshot lasgun next patch TRUST
💀
So yeah
Apples to oranges
Don't get me wrong though
Infinite ammo is crazy
But as a melee guy, imma melee
Oh yeah speaking of melee
Exec also gives you stun and slow immunity
That's weird, you'd think Desperado would also give you immunity to getting knocked out of your ads when tg breaks
But I guess you're just not supposed to use ads weapons with it
Arby's boom box does that
ranged_alternate_fire_interrupt_immune
Desperado lets you shoot a shit ton of bullets, executioners lets you shoot BETTER bullets
(Plus the map wide spot)
I guess that's a good way to put it
Yuh huh
also like, snipering
and for helbore and bolter which have long take out times its nice
Yeah that too
yeah ur right
You use it without speccing into ranged?
Now look
I love FatShark as much as anyone
Nobody loves FatShark better than me
But if they reset a bajillion of my builds again I'm gonna firebomb Sweden until it looks like Egypt
You can use it on melee builds yah
Because wall hacks stun and slow immunity are just universal buffs
Damm, ain’t it better to use the other two tho?
And constant toughness regen
Infil is a meme
VOC is around same power level imo
ES doesn’t have a good get out of jail free effect like VOC or infil
But it’s got way better sustain
"damn it sucks that we're getting bombed-"
"hey you know this has really inspired me to build a pyramid"
Is it? I’ve found it works well for me
I mean it’s useable but just not great compared to the other two
This is coming from someone who’s mained infil for a very long time
Yeah, what was that about?? They didn’t change any of the nodes, did they?
If you think about it
Desperado is more comparable to Point Blank Barrage
Both are shoot more abilities
One is infinite ammo other is rate of fire
They made it so you don't have to remove a lot of stuff to change a single talent up in the tree
No node was changed
Hey the conclave helmets are the ones that match the cadian green color scheme right ?
VoC is safe. For now. 
It's funny
I ask cuz to my partial colorblind ass it looks like a dull green but I’m not sure
They changed lone wolf so worse smite is not available as often
But did nothing about actual smite
I also called shovel buffs but all I got was 1 fix
Fatshark is not beating the "psyker is our favorite class" allegations whatsoever
did fatshark just introduce the first trans character via the aquila store
based if true
Idk if you’re joking or not, but I have seen a fair number of characters with they/them pronouns
might've not checked those i suppose
Anyone wanna do the story missions?
Ugh. I don't even remember half of my builds. Build resets always cause me problems
Grenade Regen
Iron Will
Precision Strikes
And you're pretty much set
Oh and reciprocity
And desperado
holy crud, I really do feel that extra range on the Mk3 flip shovel
it actually feels really nice
I remember I think some of my grenadier builds, but definitely don't recall my recon las or hellbore builds.
tho might test a bit more, could be placebo
fatshark on their way to add a third talent/blessing called desperado
(that's what I was thinking)
I was like
Hold on
Same names
So it'll get changed because of Weight of Fire and Onslaught happened
wow that's some GOATED range on the Mk3's flip shovel, christ.
i dont know the actual numbers from the buffs to it but DAMN that's hefty
ok i have 2 questions. 1.) what is the best way/build to get find your target penance done and 2.) whats the best stat spread on plasma gun
lol I thought the short range on the mk3 was intentional wtf
@tired egret
ah a whole user dedicated to that fact, ta
Yeah real Chad
dear lord the mk iii shovel has ascended to godhood
as a true believer of the mkiii shovel, im very happi
I always like having trees reset because I can re-analyze (forcefully) what things mean to make hard decisions like: "Do I want Keep their Heads Down or Tactical Reload?"
The former is basically a never take
Tac reload sometimes take
you don't like sending gunners into hiding? Not scary enough huh?
fs please please please just make the inf las fire one at a time
there is literally no reason for it to cost 4 for each shot
They should stay put so I can kill them fastwr
omg i lost connection and lost all my progress on find your targets im so sad
anyone else think that marksman focus is still too punishing
harder than it sounds with helbore
still havent completed a mission cause of this shit
are you using mods
Arby has almost the same issues iirc
cool uninstalling cause i literally cant play cool so cool
fix your fucking game fatshark
me when my friend (who is overweight and a shark) has trouble with attracting people
the trench map is a dream
wish i could play it and not disconnect every minute
Prolly wait til they do a hotfix or something
and it still wont work cause fatshark lol
i will say if you ever do get the chance to play without a hitch, then bring something agile yet heavy. recon las works wonders
Malding wont fix it either lmao, just saying
Arby launch had its share of issues if i remember right, I'd say wait it out
It being another new major update and all
Wym, it didn't take that long to fix arby launch issues back then lmao

Its me looking at yo dumb ahh
actually horrifying
Since the game updated it wiped out all my builds, does anyone have the infinite ammo recon lasgun one? I'd appreciate it a lot.
That's the one thank you.
According to GW lasguns dont actually shoot a red line of laser 😭
What do they shoot?
Question, for that build would it be fine to take off exploit weakness and skirmisher for focus target?
holy shit i remove the mods and it fixes the issue
If you want to follow the meta, basically never
still lost tho
Yellow bolts of laser
FT also just isn’t as good as the other keystones
penance progress got tho
That's why it looks so weird in that DOW4 trailer
Its because that one is actually how it should look like
After 40k years of red laser
I'm just not the best at using weapon specialist.
How come?
Its gonna be a weird transition just like from firstbornes to primaris
Why change it to yellow after all this time i wonder
Just not used to swapping for the buff. And I do it at wrong times because I need to melee something.
It has always been canonically yellow
Just that media for some reason always depicts is as red
Huh, I did not know that 
It’s worth practicing and getting used to it because WS is insanely strong
Ngl WS is so boring when playing vet. I dont wanna play melee vet when the reason I play vet is for the ranged 
Real
Wish they'd buff Infatry Las soon
This update brought a bunch of of rusty players back and it shows
Did they change how you can increase difficulty now?
Cuz I remember Heresy being a fucking nightmare whenever I try to level up a new class
Reee, I wanna play but am at my internships
Everyone there sucks
Beat difficulty x times to unlock new one
Thats horrid
What was wrong with the old one where you just had to be at a certain level
I wanna try out the hives scum but I dont wanna torture myself going through heresy again
I don't remember
Not grindy enough

You get people who are new to the game and people who can't do higher levels so they just play heresy
Hiver at level 30. After nine hours of grinding
They were concerned about players not being ready for their difficulty level which is fucking stupid
When they make players with 1000+ hours in the game
Go through the same grind
Fonnie
LOL but then you get people who can't even dodge a Crusher's overhead at 1000+ hours and newbies in one difficulty
Ngl though the new map seems really short
Its beautiful but we can barely appreciate the whole thing since it just lasts like 15 minutes
The average mission lasts like 20-25 minutes
Good for grinding
I remember hearing it was 20-30 minutes before it released and I think it felt like a 10-15 minute mission tops
That was learning the route too
At least it’ll make doing the stupid fucking grind for auric relatively painless
2 hour or so
not again :(
so vet how we feelin after hive scum
what is it after this update of people with no brains
i mean i get hive scum isnt the smartest of people, but still, youre not ogryns
FR BRAH
Same
Superior 
Cool
influx of new + rusty players (me included)
Don't worry about it
Vet is like top 2 class
Hiver is like top 3
So don't worry about it
Now we just need an lmg 
Is it just me or did they increase the stagger of taking melee hits?
Cuz after the patch I feel like I can't just stand still to shoot snipers from far away anymore
According to Darktide, LMGs don’t exist in 40K. Truly a grimdark setting
What about that gun the Scab Gunners are using
I actually don’t think LMGs like in real like exist in 40K
It’s always some stupidly oversized gun that is hipfired
only war rulebooks normally
But no proper LMGs
ig like
in the way that the enemies in this game use them theyre mmg coded
but you can shoulder aim and fire stuff like volley lasguns and stubbers in that
Dont the Heavy Stubber count as an LMG
i think rosky means stuff thats shoulder fired
Or even the smaller one
Would still want a hot shot like wat the scab gunners 
Haven’t seen one of these in darktide or RT 
the dreg gunner uses them
literally what we're talking about
fucking finally got that second mission done
you got hotshot lasguns
Vet can't use it tho 
and jumped from 2 points in my penance to 31
Prolly gonna be awhile before another major update 
you havent seen a hevy stubber on RT?
(tbf its a rare weapon there)
and like
I just got to ch2
They just hipfire it tho
Which… is kinda completely against the point of LMGs lol
doesnt mean its not an LMG
no, LMGs are hipfired all the time in CQB or rapid maneuvers
If it’s not used as a LMG, it ain’t a LMG
It’s a stubber
I dont think you know what the term means
Yes yes not exactly the main use of LMGs
I know what it means. I’m mostly just saying that WH depiction of machine guns is fucking stupid
Idc that much about the semantics
And combat in Tertium is also atypical - Only CQB
the guys wielding these guns arent regular soldiers either
Sounds like standard urban combat to me…
yo why is your darktide so dark
uhh...urban combat isnt just CQB
In the grimdark world of 40K, everyone has forgotten how to ADS with high capacity automatic kinetic guns 😭
I have my brightness really low because my eyes are ultra sensitive to light
yes, but our characters only engage in rapid CQB
melee range
I mean there are pretty significant open areas
I think combat in DT isn't like tactical enough to consider like actual tactics regarding lmg's
I just want a high capacity kinetic gun I can ADS with tbh
Real
Not this braced fire bull
thats still close range.
And consider this, the gunners are either caught by surprise by the rejects or reacting to them, at very close range - hipfire range
How are enemies 50 meters away considered CQB lol
There’s a LOT of CQB in DT for sure
But it’s not everything
Just like real urban combat 
close quarters is 0-50 meters
Aight just making shit up at this point
There are enemies 51m away on many maps 
and Im the one making shit up 
This one does not have a bipod and still considered an LMG
That’s how weapon classifications work. Cope.
yeah tell me more
Thanks for proving my point
source? trust me bro 
That’s half of gun classifications tbh
Classification doesnt matter in scifi brothers
It’s just whatever the fuck people want to use it for
This is all I want
I want a weapon that is pure range and you cant use a melee weapon. That will shake things up so much
Mentioned that way back, people mention melee is too important in the game 
Heh, it shoots poo
Well now HIV is a thing so maybe not anymore lmao
hot poo 
hot poo is whatever I regurgitate out whenever I have diarrhea
Wasnt your point that they have to use the bipod for the gun to be an LMG?
Uh
No?
It was never my point
Notice how I never say anything about a bipod 
That's pretty good
then how is it not used as an LMG?
What's that backpack called again
Literally every LMG I’ve seen has sights, which are, outside of extreme CQC scenarios, the preferred method of delivering lead onto target
We just have a bunch of stubbers and braced guns in DT
the dreg gunner's gun literally has sights
They’re purely cosmetic
Sights on LMGs are typically not just there to intimidate enemies 
Also it’s not like we have access to the dreg stubber
So I couldn’t give two shits about it
Hell give me an Agri IAG with double the mag size and I’ll be happy
well they probably use the sights somewhere else just not on us. Even if they never use sights at all, thats operator error, it doesnt make the gun not an LMG.
use the Columnus IAG then
70 round mag
Not the same thing obviously
I would agree but that’s literally what stubbers are sooooo
All the mag sizes in DT are inflated
It’s not just a matter of raw mag size
Gotta take into account how hard the gun hits
oh but stubber is like a blanket term for old-world ballistic weapons
A 70 round colum is not the same thing as 70 round agri
Oh yeah that’s prob true. It’s just that in DT they call similar guns stubber or braced so I’m going off that
in warhammer 40k they just call bullet-spitting guns stubbers
pistols are stubbers too, and so are assault rifles

Maam this is a deathrow inmate fantasy game 
I mean we got cosmetics coming from other guard regiments so we eventually dont look like rejects after a certain point 
I mean at 30 aren't we no longer rejects and have proper places in the warband?
we're more than just rejects, we're Morrow's No-Hopers, and that's all that matters
I thought we just became "Favored Rejects" at level 30?
I know there was a whole cutscene about it, but yeah, more like glorified rejects to an extent afaik
At 30 the cutscene says we get an official place in the warband rather than just be conscripts.
yeah i think level 30s are considered acolytes
Be interesting to see if there are militaristic ranks among us lmao
^
We're official members of the Inquisition, except for Arbites and the Hive Gangs, which are all separate entities allied with us
what like, IS voice of command tho?
like what is it doing
lorewise
like obv ik toughness but like is vet literally just yelling
Sometimes a good shout is all that's needed to galvanize allies into action or startle foes into stumbling
It's just a rallying cry, helps get people focused and back in the action.
It's the vocal equivalent of waving a battle standard
"A lot of people would put my success down to my luxurious lasgun, but what would we put my lasgun's success down to?"
"SHOUTING?!"
"good guess but actually no!"
It's a morale boost and mark of intimidation
me when the vet's greatest ability is their voice
is the vet missing 5 percent crit chance from his old tree
Guys could this be lore accurate Guard? X3
Only if he or she is a Felinid
The art of one million bullets
is power sword missing its energized cutting sound?
I thought you meant the X3
It's a known issue as seen in the patch notes.
The attack audio for Power Weapons (such as the Relic Blade, Power Falchion, Thunder Hammer and Power Sword) is using default audio instead of their empowered sfx.

Does the game force you to wear trench gear or did everyone just wear that?
Me and my friends were all wearing Steel Legion armor
It's baseline now
Aka vet has 10% critical chance base
me when reconlas and shocktrooper:
Game would be 100% better if everyone wore steel legion kit
(Yes my name checks out)
steel legion >>>> krieg
Facts facts, we don’t lose our shit under artillery fire and frag our commissars and desert
Plus we’re not overhyped
alrighty, ty
gotcha, ty
you also have personalities!
What blessing should I combine with Full Bore when using a DB?
I do use it for horde clearing too, so is scattershot a good one?
We’re the type of autism that makes us always have to match when we play games
Is manstopper no longer the go-to anymore?
DB without that and flechette is kind of questionable, no?
Especially when you replace one with the blessing contingent on hitting a single enemy with every pellet (for a shotgun who’s whole thing is the big blast)
It's for a crit based build that uses WS and DS. I want to take big chunks of health out of big targets and specialists and to quickly erase a large group of enemies in a horde.
I mean you can run full bore but it’s rarely gonna proc
Plus flechette would prob have more damage over the course of a game anyways
Rarely? Elaborate.
You have to hit every single pellet on only a single enemy and nobody else (nearly impossible for DB)
True...
Like what are you gaining by subbing out flechette?
Makes it harder to kill crushers.
Bigger shell damage to kill crushers quicker.
Except it doesn’t pair well with WS bc you have to fire twice to get the effect of full bore, and the second shot is not a guaranteed crit
Bleed stacks on the other hand will deal consistent damage through carapace
And you don’t have to completely empty the gun
Makes sense.
Do I change my gun perks to Unyielding and carapace?
Nah flak maniac
Maniac for ragers and muties?
Yeah makes rager hordes piecemeal and lets you get rid of specials more easily
Thanks.
Ofc ofc
I'll try it out on Heresy... gun's not maxxed out.
Flak + maniac and flechette + manstopper is standard DB build for a very good reason
I don't know anything about devil claw swords, whats the difference between the 3 marks
LOL has someone here ever had a team mate think you're maphacking because you use exe stance?
Lmao no
with plasma
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA
Plasma + Exe stance = Wallhack
Mfs never touched vet before i guess
Yeah I cant believe someone just called me a cheater because of something that's in the game since day 1



Guilty of playing Vet
It sucks against crushers.
Crit headshot should fully stagger them to the floor and let you melee
Obv DB isn’t made to fight crushers it’s more for mixed hordes but still
Marksman keystone is in a good spot rn. Hopefully they rework focus strike in the next patch
Imagine making you stand still in a horde shooter 
What's a good melee to pair with DB shotty?
Tried PS but it felt like I needed to activate it constantly for it to be good.
DS
