5 points available

cyan verge
#

oh true

tall torrent
#

Cuz ES / VoC both take 2

#

And more realistically

#

Ur prob gonna take trench fighter outside tac axe for ranged builds

#

And u prob also want agile engagement

#

Plus 1 point into keystone

cyan verge
#

yeah both those are peak

tall torrent
#

The actual flexible choice isn’t there

#

It’s illusion of choice

cyan verge
#

that is a shame

#

I understand kinda what you meant then by, it could be better

#

is it also weird we get 'catch a breath' for a guaranteed node instead of just giving iron will or a toughness boost or something

#

also, what's the deal with kraks, did they get a big buff?

tall torrent
#

It is much better than before tho

#

Miles better

cyan verge
#

may I also ask for an arbites tree if you got something laying around

cyan verge
#

thanks

nova surge
#

any recommendations for a gun to pair with caxe ws?

austere mica
#

Do you want to only snipe with your gun or also clear with it

nova surge
#

axe can probably clear most things that arent elites or specialists right?

austere mica
#

It can clear everything

#

But do you want to clear even faster

#

Or just snipe

nova surge
#

snipe probably

slender elm
#

does veteran have a horde clear option for ranged

austere mica
#

Then revolver, bolt pistol, or plasma work

nova surge
austere mica
slender elm
#

i dont know

#

what's a purgatus

austere mica
#

Flame staff

slender elm
#

uh huh

#

braced autos are all full auto ye?

nova surge
#

yeah but they also dont scope in

austere mica
#

Yeah but they're kinda mid

#

If you want ranged clear on vet you run dbarrel weapon spec and demolish everything

slender elm
#

i kinda want a burst fire specialist killer but again idk what im looking for...

nova surge
#

one of the burst headhunters is good iirc

#

dont remember which though

slender elm
#

maybe i should try one of the bolt guns

#

idk how to work with the clunk tho

nova surge
slender elm
#

yeah, immediate frame loss on click

#

which makes aiming the plasma extremely difficult

austere mica
#

Plasma users finally receiving divine punishment for their actions

slender elm
#

sadness

#

i only started playing like a week ago

#

actually i have a question

#

chain weapon specials lose damage if you dodge away during animation yes?

austere mica
#

Yes

#

Most the damage is the rip at the end

slender elm
#

that's fair

#

though im looking at the guides pinned and its telling me i should L1 after special and not H1

#

with the mark 12 caxe

#

which is a bit weird

#

since the mark 12 is strikedown on heavies

woven hazel
#

what blessings on vraks V infantry autogun

slender elm
#

Welp, got a perfect roll braced autogun but its mk 4

#

Time to spray until I get to mastery 10 I guess

slender elm
#

yea but i also have to account for armor and bosses

#

spoiled by plasma

#

welp the guide says the vigilant autoguns are shit against bosses and armor lmao

unreal nova
slender elm
#

if i had one that isnt shit, at any rate

#

i just burned all my stuff trying to get a good chainsword lel

#

oh well the grind continues

verbal osprey
#

Charge rate or stopping power on a plasma gun?

unreal nova
unreal nova
verbal osprey
#

nvm, found one where the ammo is dump stat

#

80 80 charge and stopping

unreal nova
young salmon
#

what is the dump stat for combat blade? and what blessings would yall recommend?

verbal osprey
unreal nova
unreal nova
#

Or just dump thermal and lose the 1 extra chain shot you most likely will never need.

#

70/70 is fine as well if you find it. Diff is tiny enough and is an easier pull imo.

#

Charge rate also affects quick shots btw. Tiny bit but well.

verbal osprey
#

Is the power falchion good?

mystic lodge
#

Mid

unreal nova
verbal osprey
#

Recommended melee for a high damage gun build?

slender elm
#

depends on gun tbh

verbal osprey
slender elm
#

eh, power sword, combat knife, devil's claw, chain sword, heavy sword

#

those are the big and slow guns so you want trash clear and mobility

unreal nova
#

Do note the last 3 sucks at armoured, so may want kraks then.

dense belfry
#

Just learned The mk 3 knife is NOT good at hordes...

#

Some mutant threw me into a crowded hallway with an entire horde and 3 crushers

verbal osprey

#

For mk6 its sp bc l1 l2 l3

#

Powe cycler ofc

proud jolt
#

Power faction all the way, love that thing

#

Man the feeling when you get the infinite ammo perk on mortis

unreal nova
slender elm
#

how much crit do i want for a lasgun build

#

recon lasgun specifically

unreal nova
slender elm
#

something like this?

tepid panther
slender elm
#

Hmm, no superiority complex feels weird

#

I'll try it out later

stable orbit
#

use laspistol instead of kantrael

#

is more better

tepid panther
#

Kantrael?

tepid otter
tepid panther
#

No, I was wondering why he mentioned it.

tepid otter
#

The only bearable infantry las imo

stable orbit
#

it's better than recon las too but there's *minimal horde control

tepid panther
#

I mean you can swap to either one with this build, ultimately it's preference in this case.

azure narwhal
#

Inf las > recon las? That's a take

#

Not to mention that build has WS

#

Inf las needs MMF to even be prevelant in damage

tepid panther
#

If inf las had hold to fire I'd like it more.

#

But I prefer recon.

azure narwhal
#

That build's good for recon, stick to it

azure narwhal
#

Yep

tepid panther
#

I wasn't even considering it, also can't mod as console player. And yeah, I love recon cause I just enjoy the insane amount of dakka. But I am glad someone shared that build awhile ago, it's been one of my favorite.

azure narwhal
#

Ah i see

#

But yeah, ifinite dakka

mystic lodge
tepid panther
hoary gorge
mystic lodge
#

Yes, I have it too

hoary gorge
#

hell yeah

mystic lodge
#

Its one of the best Vet tops imo

dry cloak
#

eh nothing that interests me in the current shop

azure narwhal
#

im fucking fiending

#

for that krieg commissar leak

mystic lodge
azure narwhal
runic jackal
#

Is anybody in here also getting lag using the plasma gun? Instead of killing anything in 1 shot. It kills my frames instead now. Drops like 60fps each shot.

mystic lodge
#

Yes

#

My game freezes each shot

true jackal
#

finally, plasma nerfs

azure narwhal
#

i have

#

no idea if this works

#

but hail mary and give it a try

true jackal
#

smh my head these mods are getting out of hand, changing game balance and undoing the nerf

azure narwhal
#

LMAO

#

trve....

runic jackal
#

Lmao

#

Plasma was fine before

#

But now with arby and the 1tap giga shotty build

#

Plasma aint helpful no more. Back to the bolter because its at least funny to use and will 1 mag crushers

#

That or they did the charge shot switch around they said they were gonna. Havent seen it in the notes if they did

#

But at least im not crazy thank you.

true jackal
#

it hasn't actually been nerfed

#

it's just bugged

#

damage numbers should be the same

limber karma
#

hi, which node do you guys think is better? I feel that my uptime for reciprocity is lower than close quarters combat

true jackal
#

reciprocity should be up like 75% of the time

limber karma
wraith locust
#

Reciprocity has high uptime, don’t think close quarters is anywhere near the uptime

limber karma
#

i can't tell which is better

#

10 seconds buff a shout whcih is spammable

#

seems decent

#

which do you guys run?

wraith locust
#

Reciprocity

quick shell
#

mfw I wanna use plasma gun again

#

ill just wait for a patch

#

level other stuff in the meantime

i'd take a lot of things in exchange for infiltration

jade cloak
#

Anyone have a recommended Havoc recon las build?

tame lodge
#

Could have done better if it critted more often

atomic void
#

wot da hyll arbeetus shotty on vet

sly orchid
#

Solo mod probably

tame lodge
#

It's Loadout config

#

You can use exclusives

#

And every now and then I remember about it

true jackal
#

anything from ogryn silly on other class?

tame lodge
#

Oh iirc

#

You can't use ogryn things on the lil uns

Hello heretics, gangers and other common filth, how is Atoma this evening

hybrid flame
#

Wet

still dove
#

is charge rate the dump stat?

upper dock
#

dump charge rate

#

Can you even use plasma gun? I updated my drivers and even downloaded a mod but using the plasma gun just casts lag.

narrow frost
fair shale
#

Plasma has weird stats

narrow frost
#

@tired egret

#

if you want to min max

fair shale
#

Yeah

narrow frost
#

if not thermal is the best dump

still dove
upper dock
#

amd or nvidia

woeful oxide
#

is infilirtae okay?

narrow frost
#

yes

woeful oxide
#

is krak or shredder better with it?

true jackal
#

up to your other weapon choices really

woeful oxide
#

ight okay, ill just play around and see which i find better

uneven kelp
#

Plasma gun bug.

I noticed that every time the weapon :

Start Charging a shot
Shoot

There is a huge frame hiccup, as seen on the graph.

The first 2 spikes are from a left click shot, first spike was charging, second was shooting, the third and last spike is just the screenshot so nvm about that

If you spam right click to charge the thing you have a frame hiccup every time

The reason why I noticed it only in game is because it doesn't happen in the Psychanum.

Perhaps somewith with netcode or whatever. At first I though mods where the issue, so I quitted the game to join in back in vanilla, still the same.

narrow frost
#

shredders do benefit from the damage increase from invis

#

(as well as kraks, but it wont changes its 1 shots on armor targets, it'll just be more boss damage)

narrow frost
#

this is known bug on previous drivers, plasma lagging your game

uneven kelp
#

Is the bug fixed by a simple driver update ?

#

From what I scrolled through that doesn't matter and the bug is still there

narrow frost
#

it fixes for some

#

I havent used plasma so I am unsure for myself

uneven kelp
#

Counterpoint, got an AMD card

narrow frost
#

ahh

#

Darktide hates AMD

uneven kelp
#

Any reason for that ?

narrow frost
#

idk

uneven kelp
#

lul

narrow frost
#

I just notice anyone using AMD has a lot more problems

uneven kelp
#

Well from my part I can testify to a solid 80 fps in big fights at 1440p FSR Quality frame gen off

#

On a 7900XTX

#

Amazing, I know

#

Most of the time I play exec vet so you can guess thoses solid frame rates help a lot to hit shots

still dove
#

rashad or tac axe?

fair shale
#

Rashad is easier but TAxe is more fun/mobile ime

#

Rashad very much just works tho

woeful oxide
fair shale
#

the singular combat axe mark most people use

woeful oxide
#

ahh ok

#

i personally love the tact axe more then combat axe

tame lodge
#

Tactical Axes are shit

austere mica

#

hi guys, getting back into the game. Any advice for good builds?

#

for right now i've just picked what i thougth was good for my combat knife

#

i've pretty much just fully gone down the right side of the tree

split swan
#

If running MK1 shovel, is serrated blade required? don't want to give up Field Improv if I don't have to

strange crow
#

Unless you wanna help your zealot and ogryn teammates out

austere mica
#

Its free damage versus niche utility

hybrid plover
strange crow
#

Oh it do?

#

Myb

hybrid plover
#

uncanny makes bleed go through ADMs

austere mica
#

Field improv can be activated 4 times a mission max

#

And varies in effectiveness greatly

#

Serrated will always work

strange crow
#

Yeah but I assume if he rly rly wants field improv he's not playing havoc 40 so it's not super serious

split swan
#

I usually run Rashad with Field Improv, figured I'd try something different but first round with shovel was underwhelming w/o serrated

strange crow
#

Shovel relies on them pretty heavily

split swan
#

Yes:

Dump Defences
Unyielding
Carapace
Uncanny Strikes
Decimator

strange crow
#

Huh fair enough

sharp epoch
strange crow
#

You mostly run shovel for fun and style points

split swan
#

Okay, fair point - I'll try it again with Serrated and see

deft wolf
#

Hey guys, question.

Is it possible that vet doesnt get stacks of Weapon specialist for killing chem toxin infected enemies?

sharp epoch
#

chem toxin mostly steals on kill effects

#

if they die by the chem toxin

quick shell
#

what does shotgun vet want on a db?

#

and does it want to use WS?

hollow ibex
#

yes WS with always prepared is THE way to run DB

#

and then blessings are manstopper flechette

fair shale
quick shell
#

do i still want to run

#

uhhh

#

what's it called

#

exe

#

I'd assume it might struggle given they're on opposite sides of the tree?

quick shell
#

I actually just realised I had a setup with it kekW

#

ok so this is what I've got right now, I'm not too sure what to give up for always prepared, do I just swap from OYT?

sharp epoch
#

toes

quick shell
#

thought so

sharp epoch
#

wait noi

#

covert operative

quick shell
#

im not sure how good covert operative is, I

#

yeah

#

that was sort of what i was thinking

hollow ibex
sharp epoch
quick shell
#

ok and lastly, what one of the exe stance nodes do you recommend

#

I find it hard to pick between them

fair shale
#

Its personal choice imo

sharp epoch
#

the ogrun one

fair shale
#

For the DB tho? Ogryn ime.

quick shell
#

how does the db do into cara

hollow ibex
#

not well

quick shell
#

need to get better at getting those exe resets

hollow ibex
#

it's good against pretty much everything else tho

quick shell
#

i find myself not doing great at keeping those going

#

ill just run kraks then

quick shell
hollow ibex
#

i do flakiac but unyielding is a very valid option too

tall torrent
#

wat weapons are this for

quick shell
#

not sure

#

That was a setup for the helbore I believe

#

that was just the tree I had prior

#

covert is gone now either way

#

and chainaxe is good now right?

tall torrent
#

it's ok

quick shell
#

was it the mk4 or 12

hollow ibex
#

12's better

quick shell
#

that's shred on heavy right

tall torrent
#

yea

hollow ibex
#

yeah

#

light spam for hordes

tall torrent
#

currently 12 is a bit better

#

at least for vet

quick shell
#

ive used neither of these weapons before really

#

so lets see how this goes

true jackal
#

it's a fun combo

quick shell
#

i just kinda dont want to use psword with always ready

#

RTX 5900???

#

Heretics are scalping

true jackal
#

lets kill em

tulip shoal
#

are the lasguns at all good anymore? i havt played in a while

true jackal
#

the recon's definetly are

mystic pilot
#

finally tried out combat shotgun

#

it really ROCK

tulip shoal
#

but have the others fallen off? like the mg and 12?

hollow ibex
true jackal
#

the infantry las guns are not particularly good right now

tulip shoal
#

thats to bad, what should i us instead?

mystic pilot
#

hipfire doesn't one shot as much but it's good for splashing several targets at once.
Aiming down.... wow really OSK any horde unit

true jackal
tulip shoal
#

are any oif them better then the others/ good at those one tap headshots the las guns were good for?

true jackal
#

one of the is semi-automatic instead of burst, and should 1 tap shooters with a headshot

tulip shoal
#

ill hav to try that then. thanks

olive halo
#

fire frenzy/dumdum or deathspitter/dumdum on infantry autogun?

#

or fire frenzy and deathspitter maybe??

gilded rock
#

Which is usable

#

But so boring

strange crow
deft cosmos
#

Is power sword + plasma still the Havoc sauce

trail steeple
#

I thought hellbores were seen as kinda bad, but maybe im out the loop?

quick shell
#

I think that depends on if ur pc can handle plasma guns atm kekW

deft cosmos
#

Fps in SHAMBLES but specials also dead

#

Is there any way to animation cancel the bolter animation when you pull it out?

#

The brief delay feels terrible

deft cosmos

#

Smartest Veteran on the Mourningstar 😄

deft cosmos
#

Thank you gamer

quick shell
#

ok I am really liking the double barrel on vet

#

i might go back to using it with shout though?

#

im not sure if im a huge fan of exe stance really

south spindle
#

Weap'Spec Double Barrel fucks tbh

deft cosmos
#

Melee vet with infiltrate and double barrell

#

Gogogo

strange crow
#

I like infiltrate on db just for fun too

quick shell
#

not using inf i dont think

#

dont like stleath

#

pointless

south spindle
#

Only way to increase the based rating further is using the Shovel as melee 😄

quick shell
#

using chaxe

strange crow
#

Yeah stealth not good but its aura

deft cosmos
#

Voice is strictly the best

robust herald
#

shovel peak

deft cosmos
#

But the other two are fun

robust herald
#

anyone who says shovel bad doesn't know

strange crow
#

Nah exe stance is as good as voice of command rn

deft cosmos
#

Below auric is doesn't super matter if you game

strange crow
#

It has passive toughness regen

#

Plus damage boost

#

And wallhacks

deft cosmos
#

Not having gold toughness in havoc sounds horrible

south spindle
deft cosmos
#

Do you need it for one shot thresholds

strange crow
#

Yes absolutely

quick shell
#

hmmm

#

I'm really not sure how i feel about frags vs kraks

#

i should probably just run kraks

tall torrent
#

Exe stance makes that a lot less crit dependent

quick shell
#

I assume that's where the helbore starts being really good

#

because of how high it's damage is?

tall torrent
#

Helbore is good in general

rustic hemlock
#

do i just turn on power falchion and wack everything until it charges up, or should i always turn it off before it reaches full?

quick shell
#

feels like overkill on auric

strange crow
tall torrent
#

Unless u use overload blessing

quick shell
#

still felt like overkill

#

it was in this awkward spot where I just felt like it shot a little too slow, felt a little bit too slow to draw, etc

tall torrent
#

Are u aiming down sights after drawing

quick shell
#

a couple of things where it was just slightly not enough

#

yes

#

i like hitting my targets usually

tall torrent
#

I think vig auto 3 is prob the best “sustained sniping” gun atm if u don’t run shock trooper

quick shell
#

yeah that's just generally sort of not what im looking for

#

it felt great vs specials

#

popping exe and just going through nuking a gunner crew or whatever was awesome

#

but when u start looking at little shooters and things

#

it was just slightly not enough for me

tall torrent
#

It’s 1 burst bodyshot on shooters & stalkers

quick shell
#

charged sure

tall torrent
#

What

quick shell
#

unless u mean with exe active

quick shell
#

oh

#

im talking about helbore

tall torrent
#

Helbore bodyshots are pretty bad

quick shell
#

the vig autos are all solid weapons and i like them

tall torrent
#

Even with crit

#

It’s exclusively headshot gun

#

Takes like 2-3 bodyshots to kill 1 flamer

quick shell
#

yeah

#

not really for me

#

what blessings do you run on chaxe? headtaker + slaughter?

tall torrent
#

that's the best yea

quick shell
#

I assume there's not a ton of difference between mobi and def dumps

tall torrent
#

Well

#

Mobility dump is mainly slower sprint

#

0.09 vs 0.27

#

Defence is mainly push cost, 1.4 vs 1.8

#

I think push cost usually better tho

quick shell
#

both are nice, both don't seem like super huge gaps

#

it probably is but frankly I don't think I push enough for it to matter

hollow ibex
quick shell
#

im betting not very

tepid panther
#

Hey Sirosky, you wouldn't happen to have a revolver build would you?

quick shell
#

for perks, what are we feeling, I assume it's flak, cara, unyielding, maniac

#

but not sure which

south spindle
#

For Hellbore? Probly Cara/Unyeilding because it one shot headshots basically everything else

quick shell
#

for chaxe

south spindle
#

Oh myb, no idea in that case

#

Still have PTSD from early DT when you couldnt dodge out of pin attacks KEKW_ogryn

quick shell
#

yeah I feel the smae

#

but im trying it out and it feels pretty nice

#

the heavy having a rip naturally gives it quite high heavy attack damage

#

im liking it a surprising amount

south spindle
#

Have heard its much better nowdays yeah

quick shell
#

lights dont rip on the mk12 thank fuck

south spindle
#

Ahh yeah, the light rips on the OG one, thats why everyone hated it in the early days

quick shell
#

yeah it made it unusable into hordes

south spindle
#

I forgot it was the lights

quick shell
#

some maniacs liked it

#

but not a ton

south spindle
#

Yer, not many for sure

quick shell
#

I'm liking always prepared with the db a lot

#

high apm too

#

fucked up a couple times and got trapped and downed once because i messed my inputs up kekW

south spindle
#

Freeload is always good tbh, though yeah Weap'Spec can be for sure input intensive, it dont help that the game eats inputs constantly either lol

quick shell
#

yeah

south spindle
#

Tis also very fun with Boltpistol tho

quick shell
#

i can imagine actually

tall torrent
quick shell
#

that'll be noticable clueless

tall torrent
#

it kinda is

#

but it's not massive

#

5%+ is where it starts to be relevant

quick shell
#

i feel like it isn't enough to make a notable difference really

#

not at 3% at least

hollow ibex
#

i think i'd rather dump mob then prob

mystic pilot
#

the shovel as your primary help with crowd control. The combo has been working well so far for me

tepid panther
#

Didn't they get buffed recently? That's why they're so good?

hollow ibex
#

helbore got buffed yeah

#

multiple times

#

bayonet got nerfed multiple times to make up for it

quick shell
#

Was the bayonet thjat good?

south spindle
#

Christ I forgot how absolutely awful it is to be in a lobby with a Rumbler Ogryn

heavy rover

tame lodge
#

And back when Limbsplitter BM worked on it

#

You could insta kill 4 Ragers

quick shell
#

LOL

tame lodge
#

And clear hordes

#

Also used to be spammable

south spindle
#

It was kinda fun even if most aspects of it were unintended

tall torrent
mystic pilot
#

can't "push" back crowd as the shovel can though 🙂

tame lodge
#

Not nowadays

tepid panther
#

I've been trying to like the helbore, but I really dislike it

quick shell
#

i felt the same way so i simply stopped using it

hollow ibex
#

it's very different from most guns

tepid panther
#

What perks and blessings are usually ran on DS5?

not sure why i am evne tyring to level up this thing

hollow ibex

its really good wdym?

topaz scarab

doesnt feels as good as the plasma or bolt stuff

hollow ibex
#

just poor ammo economy

hollow ibex
#

or you can go full meme and run it as a sniper

topaz scarab
#

i mean

hollow ibex
#

it can one-shot auric crushers btw

topaz scarab
#

a bolt gun is better

#

while the plasma rifle can just cut through a line

topaz scarab
#

i asume you maxed out your revolver

hollow ibex
#

what would win, the imperium's heaviest man-portable weapon, or some cowboy 5-shooter

then yea we prob cant compare in this convo

you can't judge a weapon until it's maxed

this suck

but trust me it's worht leveling revolver

topaz scarab
#

worse is i cant empower it until level 20

hollow ibex

19 but yeah you're stuck

#

until then

stuck gorge
#

just get a bunch of green revolvers and sacrifice em

hollow ibex
#

unless you sacrifice a bunch of revolvers

could play a melee focused build

#

and just use melee

topaz scarab
#

but i dont have enough scroll

topaz scarab
hollow ibex
#

you don't need to actually use the weapon to level

topaz scarab
#

using it with my dueling sword

topaz scarab
#

bruh

hollow ibex
#

just take it with you

#

you don't need to pull it out at all

#

that's what i mean

topaz scarab
#

bruh, trancending a item cost 500 scroll

#

wtf is this

#

fatshark is inflating consencrate prices?

tepid panther
#

I found the revolver very meh, until I got hand-cannon and Surgical to IV.

#

Even without it fully maxed it does pretty great, still gotta finish getting it to 20.

topaz scarab
#

i hate how ungodly hard the game is for beginers

#

it doesnt explain a single thing

distant plaza
stuck gorge
#

and the things it does “explain” are often worded wrong or completely misleading

topaz scarab
#

the game is out for several years and yet it still doesnt explain shit

tepid panther
#

So for sacrificing do you just buy grey weapons and upgrade them to green?

topaz scarab
#

yea

#

which cost 100 or 150 scroll

#

so on top of the expensive price of the weapon

tepid panther
#

Huh? Wish I would've learned that...

topaz scarab
#

it follow by a expensive scroll price

#

its one of those game where you need to fucking watch a tutorial before actually playing it

tepid panther
#

I mean I did pretty fine getting into it, even though I was using the most fucked build from GL for Vet.

#

Damn you Vet SL build

topaz scarab
#

lol

#

i had it worse

#

like

#

thinking you will have enough talent point to spec on all the perk

tepid panther
#

Thankfully games doesn't lock points like in other games.

#

Otherwise scuffed builds without being able to change them would suck. lol

wat

slow sky
# robust herald is shovel BiS for that build or naw

I think it is cuz its very melee reliant, and shovel is capable of dealing with any melee situation, plus it has the boon of fast attacks and decent cleave (for serrated) and uncanny (for fletchette/serrated)
Like sure ds is better for single target stuff but shovel esp with serrated clears its group/horde clear, while also having tons of control from the stab special against stuff like crushers so you dont have to give up ground (really valuable)
Its more about being good into every situation vs great into some and okay into others

topaz scarab
#

but i guess that goes for any weapon

tall torrent
topaz scarab
#

yes

tall torrent
topaz scarab
#

its a build i had for my plasma rifle

tall torrent
#

take weapon specialist + always prepared

topaz scarab
#

alright

#

done

#

also which is better

#

quick draw or aim down sight

#

really wish instead of level 19, they let us empower stuff as much as the weapon mastery is at

verbal trench
#

As of the latest patch in certain maps and areas of maps firing the plasma gun turns the game into a slideshow for a few seconds. Anyone else getting that?

primal zealot
#

also idk about not being able to empower

i lvld scum with a 500 tac axe at lvl 1

#

So...is there any builds around the vigilante autogun?

#

That gun is pretty nice. But it seems completely forgotten.

hollow ibex
tall torrent
#

can run it in any regular hybrid setup for veteran

idle hornet
#

What perks. Blessings? Dump?

#

And what weapon for sidearm?

hollow ibex
#

surgical/headhunter + DA, carayielding

tall torrent
hollow ibex
#

you take flakiac on mk3? 🤔

#

oh hybrid build

tall torrent
#

only gun actually worth taking MF for frequently is helbore

hollow ibex
#

a lot of guns shine with MMF angymorrow

tall torrent
#

opportunity cost is just massive

#

not worth outside helbore

#

and maybe deadshot combat shotgun meme

hollow ibex
#

i mean yeah melee is gimped but some guns go preeeetty fucking hard with mmf

#

at least hard enough that i'm willing to sacrifice my melee for lol

tall torrent
#

ultimately not as good as just dmg stacking on a hybrid build most of the time

spice osprey
#

what weapons do you guys think would fit a loose cannon archetype veteran, purely based on vibes rather than meta or stats

verbal osprey
#

Anyone encountered a bug where their weapon fires without input after exiting ADS?

topaz scarab
topaz scarab
#

high recoil

and slower rate of fire

and screenshotted it

is that

lmao

hollow ibex
#

the public builds on the site suck ass

#

don't bother with those

#

but it's helpful for your own buildcrafting

topaz scarab
#

i just watch build video and copy from there

tall torrent
#

don't do that either

#

most of them are horrible

hollow ibex
#

sadly true

i play the game to kill heretic

whats the best infantry lasgun build?

robust herald
hollow ibex
#

PA/lights if shovel mk1

#

and then DB to the chest

slow sky
#

you have uncanny and serrated

robust herald
#

yea I guess
it's just been that in a lot of situations, I find that against scab mauler packs, it's kind of subpar even though I'm hitting heads

#

idk might be warframe "I need to kill this bullshit immediately" brain talking

slow sky
#

if they die to bleed or a grenade it counts

#

just have to have it in your hand

robust herald
#

makes sense

#

so I could throw a krak if I'm feeling lazy and they're tightly packed

#

and then get bonuses on shovel

slow sky
#

i take kraks for a variety of reasons and thats definitely one of em

#

tightly packed group of armor
begone

#

even before the krak buff
they just did what i needed my nade to do

robust herald
#

it's a really nice luxury that veteran has, I've really been realizing why people like kraks so much. especially with the cluster-like talent with the 20% chance to detonate more

#

it completely trivializes crusher packs

slow sky
#

but it can kickstart it

#

forcing some ranged specialist stacks can get the ball rolling, they still have flak bodies so aiming for the body will still cause manstopper to cleave through them and start the bleeding

#

and shovel just ramps it up

#

you can also control it a bit with the stabs so youre not on the backfoot the whole time

robust herald
#

how useful is mk1 shovel's special?

#

I can't find uses for it and I don't understand its role as a move

slow sky
#

anything that can be staggered by a weapon will be staggered by it when it hits the head (as long as theyre not in a stagger cooldown ie crushers)

robust herald
#

can it interrupt rager combos?

slow sky
#

you can force a crusher to stop an overhead and stand it place for a few seconds

#

it stops rager combos and also leaves them staggered for a few seconds

#

it can stop mutant charges instantly

robust herald
#

that is

#

really useful

#

that is reeeaaally useful

hollow ibex
#

it's the same as the taxe mk4/7 special

slow sky
#

it really is
you can use it to force a situation to be more in control

hollow ibex
#

very high utility

slow sky
#

you dont have to dodge that mutant anymore then deal with it after

hollow ibex
#

you can also just stop a mutant with a special headshot

robust herald
#

yea

slow sky
#

you can stop it now and remove it from the situation now

robust herald
#

I usually just double barrelled it to the face, I didn't realize you could just stop it and melee it to death

still dove
#

what melee weapon goes best with spearhead boltgun loregryn

robust herald
#

save some ammo

slow sky
#

a bunch of crushers pushing forward toward you? weave in some stabs between whoevers overheading and suddenly most of the crushers are barely doing anything and you only have to worry about 1-2 at a time, and theyre barely moving you backwards

#

same goes for maulers

robust herald
#

I usually toss kraks at crushers but it's nice to know there's an easy way to trivialize them with the shovel if I'm out

#

I usually exclusively save kraks for tight carapace packs and bosses

#

it goes a long way, especially with the bonus krak damage talent. it de-atomizes bosses if you have good krak timing and get them in before shields pop back up

still dove
#

do you guys like power sword over dueling sword?

slow sky
robust herald
hollow ibex
still dove

robust herald

taxe is duelling sword if it wasnt boring as shit

robust herald
slow sky

which is 6

still dove
#

ive never used taxe im going to give it a try

robust herald
still dove
robust herald
#

I use taxe in my mmf bolt pistol build

#

I love it

still dove
#

bet

robust herald
#

it's a lot of fun but you need a good wrist for it

slow sky
robust herald
#

it's super spammy

still dove
slow sky
#

but its one youll really notice when youll use it

still dove
slow sky
#

that one

#

also what build

robust herald
still dove
#

ah ok bet

#

sry for all the questions lol

slow sky
#

you are not forgiven

robust herald
slow sky
#

we hate questions

#

its why we answer them so quickly

robust herald
#

True...

still dove
slow sky
#

(i say that then remembered i didnt answer yours quickly)

still dove
robust herald
# still dove ah ok bet

keep in mind tho I just like mk7 because it has a nice looking moveset and better average dmg lol

slow sky
#

but tbf i dont use ds or psword or bolter on vet so lol

robust herald
#

I think mk7 is the most popular one tho

still dove
#

i never used bolter until today on vet bc all i use is plasma and helbore lol

slow sky
#

oh thats the build that skips iron will for some unknown reason

still dove
#

wtf

slow sky
#

yeah

robust herald
#

you should

hollow ibex
#

"havoc 40 ready"

robust herald
#

use iron will

hollow ibex
#

bros a mlg havoc 40 vet player

#

doesn't take iron will

still dove
hollow ibex
#

cuz he simply doesn't get hit

robust herald
#

Something as in. They're kind of ass

still dove
#

yeaaa im trying to look for the underground builds lmfao

#

but its wtv im really bored of plasma

gentle lake
slow sky
#

i havent tried exe stance with bolter so idk breakpoints

#

but imo if you go mmf and exe stance
tunnel vision is the dumbest thing in the world

still dove
#

yea facts

slow sky
#

it results in like the highest toughness regen in like the entire game

#

exe stance going from 10 to 16%/s

#

then you throw in confirmed kill and catch a breath

tall torrent
still dove
still dove
#

its nice on helbore builds though

worthy lodge
#

fr VOC is clutch

slow sky
#

for bolter especially

#

long reload and youll be killing elites often with that

still dove
#

makes sense, its hard to drop something for iron will on that build i sent

slow sky
#

idk about its breakpoint but elite or ogryn/boss damage might be it
ik those are always good but i feel like a fluid build is more important

tall torrent
#

always keep iron will

#

it's not negotiable

slow sky
#

or skirmisher if you find yourself not stacking it often

robust herald
#

would y'all say the taxe needs serrated blade? I did some testing in psykh and the bleed didn't feel like it did much. how does bleed damage work?

still dove
slow sky
#

so its good for fast swinging weapons cuz youll get it to stack up quicker for that big damage

#

BUT

#

taxe does quite good damage into most things and the things youll only see value on would be bosses and crushers, and one of those two already strikes out due to the armor type

#

granted on a ranged build if your locked into melee against a boss, you wont regret having that extra damage
but its not vital

robust herald
#

yeah

#

I think, on this build since I'm running exe stance I won't have too much problem with that kinda stuff

#

I also have kraks and heavy attacks to lean on

slow sky
# still dove yea i was just about to say skirm thanks

yeah imo damage is the least important thing when it comes to a build
you need to survive first and foremost to deal damage
and you could have a high damage build but without the QoL stuff that backs it up youll be fumbling around a lot of the time or just not having a good time
so sacrificing some damage to make sure you have those two first will help you more in the long run and thats pretty consistent across all classes

robust herald
#

yeah a super top-heavy build will do you no good

slow sky
#

theres already lots of things that give damage anyway so all thats gonna happen regardless

#

now time to play warframe and do the exact opposite of what i do here
run fuckass builds that explode everything that i got off of a website without fully understanding how it works

robust herald
slow sky
robust herald
#

yea

#

it's only like a half hour grind

slow sky
#

yeah but its kinda like eh

#

its not bad but it feels pretty unrewarding

robust herald
#

you get the new crunk arcanes if you do enough of it

#

in like a really short time span

robust herald
slow sky
#

it is

robust herald
#

getting to floor 21 once gets you enough to buy all of uriel

slow sky
#

why would you buy uriel though

robust herald
#

also there is the uh whatchamacall it

#

the vosfor thingy but with the new resources

#

you get the exclusive arcanes if you use... ignia I think?

#

and ignia is pretty much just vosfor 2.0

slow sky
#

yeah its just a new source of arcanes

robust herald
slow sky
#

thats only slightly more generous than archimedea

robust herald
#

yk, like buy his part blueprints

slow sky
robust herald

just farm it

Uriel is great, been playing him

its just

robust herald

#

my uriel should be done now btw

the warframe

robust herald

it's what I did to farm for his subsume copy

slow sky
robust herald
#

with roathe?

slow sky
#

yeah

robust herald
#

hang on

slow sky
#

most of that time is spent getting there

robust herald
#

do you get his parts if you skip to the roathe fight

#

that's ball knowledge wtf

slow sky
#

its a drop from the fight

#

as is the weapon

robust herald
#

huh, neat

slow sky
#

(i was not lucky for his dupe)

robust herald
#

yea I have all of the vinquibus parts

#

I got em from just playing descendia normally

slow sky
#

i dont wanna farm actual descendia tho fumble

robust herald
#

vinquibus is surprisingly good

robust herald
#

like laser limbo last week was pmo

#

so bad

#

I hate laser limbo

slow sky
robust herald
#

the one where it's jackal lasers but they're all around the map

slow sky
#

oh that one lmao

robust herald
#

it's annoying

slow sky
#

i was just drone striking as jade lmfao

robust herald
#

yea if u have a frame that can fly they're no problem

#

or if you have a shield gater or overguard thingy

#

dante last week was MVP because of those interactions

#

makes sense that the character named dante would do well in the hell game mode tho

#

none of the floor modifiers are a detriment to him whatsoever lol

slow sky
robust herald
#

styanax is the best warframe I will never grind again

#

I hated his grind💔

slow sky
#

you grinded him?

#

i got him and his dupe for free xd

robust herald
robust herald
#

or didja get him gifted

slow sky
#

he was the 50th warframe so he was given to everyone for free who logged in during that time
then one of the summer games fests had him as a twitch drop

robust herald
#

of course the one time I took a break from the game

unreal nova
slow sky
#

tac axe and laspistol

#

the loose cannon isnt a pussy, they dont use no knife
they take something light that can still deal some real damage to a persons face

unreal nova
slow sky
#

thatd take more time and effort than 1 hatchet to the face though

unreal nova
#

But personally, any 'pistol' and a fast melee.

#

At that point, might as well emperor's toothpick. Mobility and face poking with parry safety net while running off, heh. I wish there were more fast melees tbh.

#

I want a powerfist with quick unpowered punches and powered heavier strikes.

dry cloak
#

I would give a lot for single stub pistol to be available for other human classes

#

Would use it a lot

junior grail
#

Question

Is Infantry or Vigil a better choice on Vet? Unless its just preference

dry cloak
#

Infatry for general use

#

And vigis for head clicking

#

With addendun that 3rd burst vigi can also be used with out vuild for it

#

Vigis are simply gonna be better if you go exe stance and mmf.

#

Both or either

true fern
#

is shock maul secretly amazing?

narrow frost
#

Secretly? No. It's one of the best all rounders with amazing stagger

#

It's my 2nd fav weapon to slap on a random build and it works

dry cloak
#

Iirc shockmaul now has more stagger than thunderhammer

narrow frost
#

I just recorded another Havoc run with it and las gun

#

Was fun

tame lodge
#

But it ain't bad

dry cloak
#

You cant go wrong with it my experience

tame lodge
#

Probably my most used melee since it was released

dry cloak
#

It will work

dapper coyote
#

Saul for me is my one of favourite lazy weapon

mystic lodge
dapper coyote
#

Just swing it bro

#

Crushers will die

dry cloak
#

The secret there is none

mystic lodge
#

you cant go wrong with Tacaxe

dry cloak
#

Yes

#

However tac axe requires more thinking than smaul

dapper coyote
#

Shrimply spam m1

mystic lodge
#

Tacaxe is the best comfort weapon for Vet. No thinking just swinging

dry cloak
#

For thats munitorum smaul

dapper coyote
#

Other lazy melee vet weapons for me is the Chaxe

#

Spam M1 and believe its gonna die

dry cloak
#

Now that occured to me

#

I use whole of 4 melee weapons on vet

#

Smaul dc7 mk6 and powerfalchion

dapper coyote
#

For me its Saul, Knoif, Caxe, Psword, Chaxe and maybe Csword

mystic lodge
#

for me its tacaxe, dclaw mk7, and rashad

#

lightspam-jitsu

true fern
#

also stun

dapper coyote
#

I would like to play with dclaws

#

But man

#

No anti armor

mystic lodge
mystic lodge
#

usually I just krak crushers

#

on everything else dclaw works fine

dapper coyote
#

Because sometimes its get proc'ed by chaffs

mystic lodge
#

the parry is honestly to save u from the overheads of crushers and maulers, and to clear ragers

dapper coyote
#

Let me parry that crusher bro

That one chaff:

mystic lodge
#

yeah dclaw parry invul window should be extended

#

like 500miliseconds or smth

dapper coyote
#

But if im so fucking lazy i just play chaxe

#

M1 spam and maaaybbbbeeeeee rev and heavy

#

Ngl rev'd chains so fucking good at shredding bosses

south spindle

You can kill like 100 Ragers with it
