obsidian shoal

i aint high enough level for them to show up i think, im not sure at what level they start showing up.

dapper coyote
#

Or mastery

obsidian shoal
#

melk i have 0 coins ;D

fresh thistle
#

give me an opinion on this victory pose with my current drip

dapper coyote
#

Nice

obsidian shoal
#

ah power falchion is lvl 23

#

and plasma 16, i see thanks

fresh thistle
fresh thistle
#

@hollow ibex this one all you buddy

dapper coyote
#

Psword

#

For cheese

obsidian shoal
#

im using a chainsword rn, its fun ;D

#

just chainsaw them to the ground lul

fresh thistle
#

this is what i'm using for my chainsword

dapper coyote
#

If im beyond fucking lazy, i just use Chaxe

#

Just press M1 and maybe rev + heavy for crushers

#

If im trying harding im using Psword

#

The other alternatives are Saul or knoif

obsidian shoal
#

is there a uh

#

revolver guide?

dapper coyote
#

Maxxing reload + WS build for me

obsidian shoal
#

WS?

dapper coyote
#

Weapon specialist

obsidian shoal
#

ah

dapper coyote
#

One of the best nodes

obsidian shoal
#

im not that far in the game ;D

dapper coyote
#

Just play until you hit lvl 30 first

obsidian shoal
#

and then worry about builds and such?

dapper coyote
#

Then comeback to decide on what builds you want or what builds available for fun/auric/havoc stuff

obsidian shoal
#

kk got it thanks

thin stone
#

How's the chainsword in havoc 30-40?

#

anyone?

manic bramble
#

I'm not into havoc but last I heard it has become more viable relative to in the past

tame lodge
thin stone
#

Oof

tame lodge
#

Yeah the thick hordes are thick

limber bane
#

for h40 do you guys use focus target or specialist

heavy rover
#

That or marksman focus

heavy rover
dapper coyote
#

Is it meta? Idfk, it works

#

Chaffs, armored, maulers, just spam m1 and they probably will die in time, maybe shove if im overwhelmed

#

Captains shields or crushers, rev and heavy

neon pecan
#

ayo, I was able to make this "illegal" tree? Is this normal?

dapper coyote
#

Hmmmmmmmmm

#

Isn't there a rework on how the trees functioned now?

#

I believe it was ganger update

livid hill
#

pair that with the commissar hat

neon pecan
#

weird thing is I can't build up, only down, but I was able to remove the Takedown node without removing Volley. I can't select the Volley node from Close Order

#

so I don't believe this is intentionally part of the update

thin stone
#

@tame lodge How is bolt pistol on the veteran in havoc 40?

#

and can it be paired with the power falchion?

#

And is the lasgun any better now

#

Anyone?

tame lodge
thin stone
#

Oof

#

Why do people prefer shovel over power falchion

#

Power falchion seems to be better

neon pecan
#

More armored enemies in higher difficulties, and it has Skullcrusher, which is probably in the S++ tier of blessings in the game if that's still the META

#

TBH just run what you like though, I like PF more so I build around it

azure narwhal
#

But there are better options if you care more about the actual gun

#

Bistol is just that, a sidearm

thin stone
neon pecan
#

Lethal Prox builds on Vet are some of the most fun builds in the game. BPistol is good at removing flaked ranged targets, letting Krak bonuses from Prox ramp up

azure narwhal
#

Falchion for h40 is not the best idea

#

Psword is the king of vet

thin stone
#

Oof

neon pecan
thin stone
#

Is ILas viable in H40

azure narwhal
#

You can certainly play with anything, but that goes without saying. Rankings exist for a reason

thin stone
#

With Power sword ofc

neon pecan
#

ILas unfortunately has a lot of issues, more than P falchion in higher diffs imo

azure narwhal
#

Ehhhh not really you'd have to commit to make ILas work via exec stance + MMF

thin stone
#

What about autoguns

azure narwhal
#

If you say helbore or recon, that's better

thin stone
#

Those viable?

neon pecan
#

Recon Las is amazing

azure narwhal
thin stone
thin stone
azure narwhal
#

You certainly could. Plenty of more stuff now is viable for high havoc

#

Double barrel + shovel

#

Cole's build

#

Pretty fun too

thin stone
#

Can you give infantry autogun + psword build

#

Also what button do I map PS6 charging to?

azure narwhal
#

Exec stance + mmf is a solid option for infantry autoguns

azure narwhal
thin stone
#

Ok

azure narwhal
# thin stone Ok

This is my favourite infantry autogun setup btw, but use what you like

thin stone
#

Cool

stuck geyser
#

why is the meta to use power sword over for example duelling sword?

heavy rover
heavy rover
tame lodge
#

So generalist> specialized

gleaming patrol
#

Any tips on how to use the power sword? I'm so used to dueling lol

tame lodge
#

Power Cycler
Always power up
You can animation cancel the power up animation with a block or push
Use mk6

gleaming patrol
#

Okay thanks, so I should mainly do heavy attacks?

tame lodge
#

That's the funny thing

#

You don't

#

It's all lights

#

Or

#

Push Attack light light for single target

gleaming patrol
#

But is power cycler not only for heavy?

#

An nevermind read it wrong'

tame lodge
#

You're probably reading Sunder
But Sunder is for all powered attacks

#

Only the extra damage is heavy exclusive

gleaming patrol
#

Right is there not better cleave stuff then?

#

But ye I tried using it now like that and I can see why it's better then dueling

tame lodge
#

No because Fatshark doesn't tell you this but
Sunder is essentially +400% and can cleave through carapace

#

The alternative to sunder would be Brutal Momentum

#

On weakspot kill it'll transfer the single target damage to another 3 targets

#

So you can kill 4 targets with a powerful swing

#

It doesn't work on Ogryn sized enemies though

#

Well power Cycler is mandatory
So no Sunder + BM

gleaming patrol
#

Ah okay

#

thanks for the help

#

I think the dueling sword is more fun but the power sword does feel much more OP lol

tame lodge
#

Yeah which is crazy because Dueling Sword is also OP

#

We spent like 2 years asking it to be nerfed just for it to be "nerfed"

#

💀

#

They reduced some damage here and there but the classes have gotten stronger

#

So nothing ever happens

#

🗣️

little path
#

wait so is krak the meta nade now?

#

what changed?

#

is it because all the grenade talents are right next to eachother making it super easy to spam kraks into a boss with enhanced damage?

neon pecan
#

they changed high havocs to be more Rot Armor and Crushers than shooters, bleed nades r still v good, you see people swap kraks for bleed when rots out of rotation mor

tame lodge
#

Probably because you can bulwark prejudice max without the long fuse

little path
#

oh, it's just shooter spam isn't in high havoc anymore?

#

that's good

#

or

#

less

neon pecan
#

shooter spam is lessened yeah, bubble psykers are less now 2 so smokes have a bit more of a place

little path
#

I imagine it ain't used with bolter builds though

#

bolter builds are still frags?

neon pecan
#

explosive prox on bolt pistol can buff frags

little path
#

sorry I meant spearhead

spark mauve
#

Anyonye gonna be on today

calm shard
#

even the absolute best carapace damage melees struggle to kill havoc crushers in a reasonable timeframe

#

kraks you chuck one and he's dead

#

possibly more depending on density

neon pecan
#

I have 1 point left over in this build, Krak focused using explosive prox and shovel with Uncanny + Skullcrusher, where should I put it?

little path
molten cedar
#

Newish player to DT. How come the Veteran's ability kinda feels useless?

little path
#

exec stance is a very very powerful damage boost

#

but works best with specific guns

#

VOC isn't very flashy

#

and doesn't inherently give any damage boosts

neon pecan
#

VOC with yellow toughness is the strongest ability in the game

little path
#

but in terms of what they actually do

#

they're insanely powerful

#

vet's abilities overall are very uuuuh

#

standard

molten cedar
#

Well whatever the move that you use RB to activate

little path
#

I would not recommend using controller

molten cedar
calm shard
#

it's like

#

not even top 5 imo

#

it's good don't get me wrong

#

but best in the game is def overrating it pretty heavily

molten cedar
#

No idea what VOC even stands for

calm shard
#

Voice of Command

little path
#

oof

neon pecan
little path
#

I would reocmmend dropping the middle sub-node of the keystone

#

it's not that good

neon pecan
#

gain an extra 10% dmg for +3 seconds of waiting isn't too bad imo

little path
#

or take one of the orange nodes and get more when you just use your VOC

neon pecan
#

left tree oranage node is okay, right tree is kind of a trap node imo, close range is like 6m and VOC will push people outside of that range

molten cedar
little path
#

usually focus target only really helps against bosses

neon pecan
molten cedar
little path
#

ye

analog mural
#

As a bonus it will also reset when you don't want

neon pecan
molten cedar
calm shard
#

seconds

#

and obv that's if nothing else is going on and you're just 1v1ing a plague ogryn

little path
#

but the build is specifically trying to use it

calm shard
#

power sword mobility is going to fuck you out of that timeframe if anything else is happening around you

little path
#

might as well just drop the middle subnode and take more damage for using your VOC

#

that way you get better performance overall instead of the extra 10% on pretty much just bosses

neon pecan
little path
#

is that tanner or linderberg?

#

wait that's the same guy

#

yeah anyway, that build sucks

#

it's literally a build that just shows off how fast you can kill a plogryn

calm shard
#

oh sorry I was talking about like

#

normal builds

#

not "see how fast I can kill a plague ogryn :)" builds

little path
#

that's standing still and you're taking all the talents specifically for DPSing one enemy

calm shard
#

in which case I could show you exe stance vet killing one in 3 seconds

#

which is also a practical build for exe

#

instead of going all in on the fucking powersword

neon pecan
#

I mean tbf it's really not that hard to ramp that far on PS

little path
#

you know what is hard?

neon pecan
#

considering you have 3 teammates buffing you as well

calm shard
#

exe builds do this faster, and without having to take weird talent choices

neon pecan
#

I agree

#

this is in a bubble in psyk by yourself

little path
#

melee vet

#

relies on voc for safety

neon pecan
#

I'm saying with 3 people also providing buffs its easy to do this ttk without having to hard spec like that

little path
#

and powersword isn't very mobile

little path
neon pecan
little path
#

here's the skinny

#

focus target sucks

#

you're using 1-2 points to give you a damage boost on 1 target

#

just take those poitns and put them into other stuff

#

you could spec fully into boss damage

neon pecan
#

This guy is telling me to go right orange node instead of bottom middle keystone

#

insane

little path
#

but realistically this causes your build to struggle against anything else in the game

neon pecan
#

a node that directly conflicts with VOC

little path
#

if you can't walk back into an enemy after you pop voc

#

there's something going wrong

neon pecan
#

Bottom middle keystone is speccing for boss dmg

#

free 30% to all sources includes your Kraks my guy

little path
#

alright fine, if you want to build that way, go for it

azure narwhal
#

FT simply needs an investment (2 subnodes) just like MMF so you can't take "the build" that WS would allow, but that's not the only viable/good thing

latent ridge
#

guys what blessings would you do in falchion for general purposes? i use the Mk IIb coz i like the angle combo for clearing: heavy+light+light and for elite killing light+heavy+heavy, so i need some good damage to penetrate armor and improve the good use of it

neon pecan
#

It includes DOT values as well

#

I'm not saying it's the literal best thing, but to say its bad is wrong

little path
#

everything in this game can be used in auric

#

nothing is technically bad

calm shard
#

it's def outclassed by vet's other 2 keystones that's for sure

azure narwhal
little path
#

but if we're trying to make the distinction of what is better

neon pecan
little path
#

just saying that FT is bad is easier

neon pecan
#

except for a few weapons that use it

calm shard
#

yeah and you only take it on those weapons

azure narwhal
latent ridge
little path
#

just like how saying stealth on vet is bad is easier than saying that it's good but outclassed by the other two

calm shard
#

FT is the "I am using weapons that do not benefit from the better keystones" keystone

azure narwhal
#

Its spefcific but good

azure narwhal
azure narwhal
#

These build skeletons help people as much as they cause confusion lol

calm shard
#

don't full auto your bolter???

#

aim?

azure narwhal
calm shard
#

yeah and full auto build is the wrong way

azure narwhal
#

No

candid lantern
#

Veteran chads whats the go to now for a strong dam-hersey carry build? i miss using my beta tester gear

azure narwhal
#

Papa willy's build is a good example

#

He did h40 not so long ago

little path
#

dam-heresy carry KEKW2

azure narwhal
#

With exactly focus target + fauto bolter

narrow widget
molten cedar
narrow widget
#

like ok ur telling me u have in ur hands a whole ass bolter

#

and ur not gonna mag dump into some unsuspecting crusher?

molten cedar
#

EXACTLY

#

What's the general consensus on best and worst weapon for Vet?

#

Ranged

little path
molten cedar
little path
#

are you trying to use the worst specifically?

molten cedar
#

I like the bolter but it eats ammo, and takes up too much screen real estate

molten cedar
serene bough
little path
#

I mean yeah the IAG is kinda rough depending on the mk

#

but I would say the worst ones are like

serene bough
#

Vraks 5 autogun is good

little path
#

Infantry las, revolver (it's good, jsut a weird pick for vet), shredder, vigiliant autos

molten cedar
#

I just started using the double barrel, that thing kicks ass

little path
#

braced autos

primal zealot
#

iag is awesome you just lack recoil control

little path
#

like really none of them are even bad

serene bough
#

Oh, vigilant autoguns are ok but nowhere near effective as other vet options

little path
#

just kinda weird

#

main thing is vet doesn't feel like much of a marksman

serene bough
#

Helbore is a good marksman rifle

little path
#

especially when you're trying to shoot like 40 dudes in a timely manner

#

helbore is fantastic

serene bough
#

But when you have a plasma gun w/ 100 cleave and a hitbox the size of a tree log

little path
#

the game makes it hard to be a marksman

molten cedar
little path
#

your teammates also contributes to it being tough to be a marksman

serene bough
#

Definitely doable but still

little path
#

the i-las are such a pain to use

#

the fact that it's semi-auto is uuuh

#

painful

molten cedar
#

And I end up mag dumping half my mag into a teammate

narrow widget
# little path braced autos

I'd argue brautos are bad at what vet wants to do (unless you're taking like exe stance but even then there are so much better options)

heavy rover
narrow widget
#

like ok ilas is bad but at least you can aim somewhat

little path
#

exec wants you to be accurate

#

brautos are all about spray and pray

narrow widget
#

yea exactly

little path
#

and unlike scum the vet's ammo regen isn't as infinite

#

can't just kill 1 elite or special to regen 20% ammo

narrow widget
#

that's what I'm sayin

#

brautos bad on vet

narrow widget
#

peak gameplay

little path
#

works great for WS, but 6 rounds, single bullet reload

#

could just take plasma

narrow widget
#

yea and? it hits all the breakpoints u want it to

little path
#

also the very unfortunate downside of revolver not scaling into havoc as well

narrow widget
#

obv not great into havoc bc ammo limitations but it's still v usable

little path
#

yeah, same as pretty much all the guns

#

usable but there's some clear better choices

narrow widget
#

like I don't see why ur downplaying revolver it's like
fine
great in everything that isn't havoc
so great for whatever most people are going to be playing anyway

little path
#

kinda like how no one uses the vigilant autoguns because if you want a precision headshot weapon

#

just shoot em with the big iron

fair shale
#

Bath likes Revo for Havoc iirc

#

Bath is pretty good, I trust that guy normally

little path
#

Revolver is good

narrow widget
little path
#

just a weirder pick for vet when your options have msotly direct upgrades

fair shale
little path
#

revolver on zealot etc. Amazing

narrow widget
little path
#

yeah

narrow widget
#

like why are we downplaying it

little path
#

because it's a weird pick on vet

narrow widget
#

ITS NOT

little path
#

kinda of like uuuh

narrow widget
#

THATS THE THING

#

ITS NOT A WEIRD PICK

little path
#

you would use brautos on hivescum desperado

#

but not on vet

narrow widget
#

because brautos don't do what vet wants to do

fair shale
#

Brauto has almost never been good on vet outside a meta like 3 years ago

narrow widget
#

revolvers do what vet wants to do

fair shale
#

Revo is actually good on vet and you don't even have to reload the thing

#

Cause of WS subnodes

narrow widget
#

get in there and pop a specialist head every now and then

burnt flame
#

Just came here to say that vet is the worst class and ogryn is the best.

narrow widget
#

psyker is the best class and it's not even close

burnt flame
#

Psyker is barely a class

#

its more of a concept

narrow widget
#

it's hilariously op tho

burnt flame
#

its ok i guess

#

other classes can perform just as well if not better. Psykers are best relegated to being supports

narrow widget
#

are we fr

burnt flame
#

we fr

narrow widget
#

lmao

burnt flame
#

not at all. been playing since the beta

#

i still firmly believe psykers are most useful to the team as a support due to their kits

narrow widget
#

bro flame staff psyker literally deletes the game

burnt flame

far to many get to big for their britches and get one shot

molten cedar
#

Tried the recon lasgun and I kinda hated it, I have the same complaints with it as the infantry lasgun does: multiple rounds used per shot

fair shale
#

Every las does that

narrow widget
#

every las does that

hollow ibex
#

and then there's shocktrooper surgical helbore 🙂‍↕️

#

0 ammo per shot

helbore definitely does that

faint beacon

Not really no lmao

civic knot
#

In the latest veteran talent tree update, was one of these nodes removed and made inherent to veteran's base stats instead of part of the talent tree?

faint beacon
#

Yeah a lot of tax operative modifiers became base

#

Veterans passive is also now old Determined

civic knot
faint beacon
#

Aka we’re completely immune to being suppressed

#

Everyone else can be minus us

civic knot
#

thats kinda huge

faint beacon
#

Makes aiming easier in firefights

civic knot
#

but tell me, is one of those stam regen boosts really built into base Vet stats now?

hollow ibex

Yeah

It's.75 base now

I fucking love this aim trainer memes

Where they condition their hands into this weird pattern instead of eye to hand coordination

hollow ibex
inner iris
#

the others only use 1

#

although i dont get what the gripe here is

molten cedar
inner iris
#

as opossed to what else though

#

lasguns still have the best ammo regardless even without shock trooper

molten cedar
#

Saying I have 40 shots

inner iris
#

anyways if you want ammo maxing just use the other marks

#

they have like 100+ mags and use only 1 ammo per shot

#

speaking of ammo maxing

#

I've lately become obsessed with builds that let me only use guns that the whole game

#

I'm starting to think laspistol is better than recon las now because of this

hollow ibex
#

Tbh both recon las and laspis are basically infinite ammo if you build for it

#

Same with helbore

#

Vigils and Agri CS can also extremely ammo efficient

azure narwhal
#

As long as you aren't going the braindead shoot everything because im veteran route then pretty much mearly everything will never be that bad

azure narwhal
inner iris
#

what if i want to use the same gun to kill everything from poxwalkers to crushers and only use that gun

#

laspistol can actually do that

azure narwhal
#

Then i am legally allowed to blow up barrels near you, push poxbursters into you and use hate speech

#

I will take you back to the good old black ops 2 days

inner iris
#

does hive scum have infinite ammo though

#

i wouldnt know becuase i dont play em (poor)

fair shale
#

In effect yes

#

Desperado is infinite ammo

#

Pickpocket is effectively infinite ammo

real loom
#

With full rending and revolvers maybe able to kill crushers

fair shale
#

You can mag dump them with macs ime as long as you're in desp, it's still probably better to melee them tho

hollow ibex
#

TTK against crushers on macs is awful lol

fair shale
#

Its bad but you can do it

hollow ibex
#

And that extra rending during desperado isn't enough to make it worthwhile

real loom
#

If im desperado build the melee I use for crushers is shiv, crowbar, or cleaver?

fair shale
#

I use Shivs

#

They require the least input for the most effect imo

#

Crowbar and Cleaver both kinda want to be built around ime

real loom
#

Ok ty

fair shale
#

Preemptively

#

The second mark of shivs is better

#

The spirals

real loom
#

I didnt know there was different marks

#

I need to check which one im using rn

#

Do u know what the better one is named?

fair shale
#

Mk1 I think?

#

I just closed the game to cook or I'd have screenshot them

#

Yeah, Mk1s

inner iris
hollow ibex
#

I prefer MkX with deadshot

#

Much more practical

#

Also why invis? 🤔

inner iris
#

MkX doesnt horde clear well
I like invis because i get to run fast with the las pistol

#

less useful for team but i think better for your own survival

hollow ibex
#

Why are you horde clearing with laspis staregryn

inner iris
#

also like running around because im doing a ranged build

hollow ibex
#

Use recon XIV then

#

It actually has cleave

tall torrent
fair shale
#

Like if I go to swap marks its Mkiii then Mk I

inner iris
#

i have frags for better horde clear tho

hollow ibex
#

It'll be way better than laspis at horde

inner iris
#

dont like kraks because you need extra damage node to 1 shot crushers at high diff

hollow ibex
#

You just need skirmisher or bring it down for aurics crusher

#

And I assume you're taking one of those already

inner iris
#

idk but i dont think its enough for havoc

#

plus if you can kill crushers with your weapons well already i do think frags are more useful

hollow ibex
#

Why are you trying to horde clear with a gun in havoc as a vet staregryn

inner iris
#

because i dont wanna touch the green goo that explodes from all the poxwalkers

#

yeah ik you can still melee them and not touch it

strange crow
inner iris
#

thats the whole point of the build

#

i do have a chainsword for horde clearing for when i get surrounded tho and am out of frags

hollow ibex
#

If you want a purely ranged class and forget that your melee exists

#

Vet isn't the class for you

#

Well I guess there's HIV too but not efficient against carapace

inner iris
#

you see, it all started when i decided to want to roleplay as a guardsman all the time, so i tried to play with just inf lasgun and shovel but it just wasnt good enough so i tried to find the next best gun that could was good at everything but also fit the guardsman roleplay and then found out inf lasgun was cracked

#

tldr its the best build i found that doesnt use dueling/power sword and plasma/recon because i dont like those weapons because they are boring

strange crow
#

You might be playing the wrong game then

narrow widget
hollow ibex
narrow widget
#

cuz you're lowk throwing if you don't pull out your melee at all in like havoc and your team will suffer for it

narrow frost
#

at the end of the day its a video game, if he enjoys that playstyle go for it. If people take offense they can leave/not invite him

narrow widget
#

true that

narrow frost
#

I play havoc and dont pull out my melee bar rare specials like mutants

inner iris
#

ok never pulling out my melee is a bit of an exaggeration

#

what i mean is i like to be primarily ranged and only pull out of melee if something comes to me because i didnt shoot it before it got to me

#

which is usually only poxwalkers

#

or huge crushers waves

#

in which case i pop infiltrate and run away to get distance to shoot them more

#

i solo carried already a couple times already with this playstyle so im not really concerned with being perceived as a thrower in havoc pubs

#

Do Zealot and Psyker have the same weapons that Veteran has or are they different?

fair shale
#

Most classes share a few common weapons and have their own uniques

#

Psyker have Staves and a few force melees, zealot has flamer, eviscerator, thunderhammer, relic blade and I might be blanking on one

#

Vet uniques are power sword, shovel, falchion and plasma

#

In short, different weapons

fair shale
#

Flamer

#

Idk the psyker staff names by their new names tbh

tame lodge
#

Flamer is zealots exclusive
Staves are Psyker's
Plasma and Helbore are vet's

#

They share everything else

fair shale
#

Forgot HB was vetsclusive tbh

#

Ive used it exactly once

tame lodge
#

With the amount of Kriegers running around you'd think they'd have more helbys around

fair shale
#

Imma be real with you man

#

The krieg larpers are not normally doing much with that thing

#

Its always the people just passively using it without the cosmetics

#

I need Cadians

To join me in the trenches

prob bring chain axe with it

Because “was” implies that it’s past tense therefore some other class has the helbore as well

It rotates around exceptionally rarely so

#

vig7's issue is not having enough dmg on its own to do it without as much spec

fair shale
#

Probably good if he really likes it

tall torrent

and this exacerbates into havoc

MF's issue is opportunity cost

near shore
#

oppurtunity exist alot in auric and above

tall torrent
near shore
#

and?

tall torrent
#

it's a lot?

near shore
#

were not .1% of players

#

it shouldnt matter that much

#

if u only play to min/max all points must be 100 optimal

#

well,,,thats boring

#

i on the other hand, happilt take mid tier items and do well

tall torrent
#

ok nvm I just checked

#

u can hit flamer/gunner 1 taps with vig7 with just stance on auric

narrow widget
fresh thistle
#

This is my personal opinion but I reckon veteran needs to be able to tinker with his guns using like a workbench or something

narrow widget
#

unless that isnt what ur talking about

tall torrent
#

u don't actually need MF for this gun's auric 1 taps lol

fresh thistle
#

Ya know how the hive scum has the stimm lab

Well I reckon veteran needs like a work bench of sorts

#

I don't get why killzone

near shore
#

its not the plasma lmao

#

ive gotten rid of everything u saif

tall torrent
#

I think ur misunderstanding smth

#

I originally said this gun's issue is not being good at 1 taps without additional spec

#

then I went and checked it again and found that it could hit auric 1 taps just fine with just stance

fresh thistle
#

I mean think about it technically veteran is no longer part of the guard so there might be allot of leeway for internal gun modifications

#

Or switching out the ammo or something

tall torrent
#

so it doesn't actually need as much spec as I thought for auric

#

as for why ur showing me a clip with killzone I kinda don't get it

near shore
#

because

#

free dmg?

#

just like longshot

#

do u just want to invest absoutely nothing for ur wepaon or dmg?

tall torrent
#

what does ur full tree look like I'm curious

near shore

want it current that appeases ur demands, or what id actually run?

no fucking shit

#

like u asked

tall torrent
#

are u like purposefully trying to misinterpret what I'm saying lol

near shore
#

i kept dropping the dmg lower n lower

tall torrent
#

I originally said this gun's issue is not being good at 1 taps without additional spec
then I went and checked it again and found that it could hit auric 1 taps just fine with just stance
so it doesn't actually need as much spec as I thought for auric

#

what actually are u mad abt rn I'm confused lol

near shore
#

who said anything about being mad

hybrid plover
#

It needs it for Havoc though.

#

Different breakpoints and all

near shore
#

depends, am i allowed to have dmg nodes?

which is why i asked which tree u wanted to see

i know

#

its not my actual bulid ffs

#

its getting rid of points to show bath earlier that i can one tap

#

they asked for no MF and other things to check

#

what u see, is that bulid and show

#

let me re make it, and ill show my actual bulid

tall torrent
#

um

#

u kinda still are missing a lot of dmg with this tho

near shore
#

itll be ok

#

i know it goes iver peoples heads

#

but damage isnt everything

#

i could not give a fuck if a boss dies 5 secinds faster

#

or slower

#

my job, is anti-special. im to drop it before it can attack or get close

#

this, is gonna 1 tap them for anywhere

my hive scum bulid would probably have most of you fucking foaming from confusion

anyone know a build that can one shot basic things in the body and such? Like Gunners and such

I average Hersy game mode

And should I switch from no aim assist to light?

blazing horizon
#

Guys is there any diff between all of those other than the stats ? like sheathed bullet is it any diff from scrap of scripture other than the stats ?

another question does the gear power of those items matter ?

hollow ibex
#

A +3 Stam curio that is 400 power is fake

#

You need 410 or higher

#

Otherwise you can just look at the blessing

blazing horizon
hollow ibex
#

Instead of three

blazing horizon
topaz lance
hollow ibex
#

3 stamina

#

If that's what it says

blazing horizon
hollow ibex
#

Dodge does not use stamina but will delay regen

blazing horizon
#

Okay so doesn't matter the name of those items at all just the gear power and stats ?

hollow ibex
#

Yeah name doesn't matter

blazing horizon
blazing horizon
hollow ibex
#

I usually do gunner toughness Stam regen and cooldown

blazing horizon
hollow ibex

Wouldn't say it's a must have

#

Its just ok

#

If you play exec stance a lot for example, it's nearly useless there

blazing horizon
#

oh and btw

#

what's the best way to get those items with gear power 410 ? all I find is 390 at that guy "Sire melk"

#

or just get lucky from missions ?

Hey what’s with all the hate for the falchion

#

I kinda like it

surreal rune
#

its hated for feeling mediocre by many

#

its just fine imo but its an all rounder which feels underperforming in aspects

fresh thistle
#

🤨 that’s what an all rounder is jack of all trades master of none

surreal rune
#

when you compare it to outliers in power

#

such as the normal power sword and dueling sword

#

it can seem underperforming

#

actually, the power sword is really powerful to offset how clunky it is

tame lodge
#

Except the actual all arounder is Rashad Axe

#

And Midchion doesn't even hold a light to it

fresh thistle
surreal rune
#

no

#

rashad is light spam for hordes and light elite

#

heavy spam for crushers and maulers

tame lodge

Light attack for everything that isn't carapace or unyielding

Then the every now and then push attack that can stagger 3 Ragers out of their combos

While also having the same dodge profile as falchion

But is the Rashad tac axe meta?

If it’s meta that’s what will kill it for me the Rashad tac axe

the rashad is a combat axe

All the axes seem the same to me KEKW_ogryn

the extra attack speed helps it a lot

Just keep ur team alive and if they are about to wipe go mass revive them where they respawn
