Is also OP

livid sphinx
#

I mean braindead OP

austere mica
#

Better

blazing jetty
#

Mk4 devil's claw is also pretty good

livid sphinx
#

Power Sword you got to be a little smarter

light crypt
deft cosmos
#

Akira is a big brainer I can tell

#

They needn't the DS

livid sphinx
#

You just hold left click

#

and you have unlimited dodge

light crypt
deft cosmos
#

This guy's heavy attack chaining with DS

fair shale
#

Wildly bad for hordes ime

livid sphinx
#

I mean its still good against hordes

blazing jetty
#

You can get a devil's claw at level 4

livid sphinx
#

Did you know that its light attacks stagger

#

even against crushers

light crypt
#

But better

deft cosmos
#

I asked a mauler if the light attacks stagger and he called me a slur

livid sphinx
livid sphinx
deft cosmos
livid sphinx
#

sorry its heresy

light crypt
livid sphinx
#

Cuz I remember back in vanilla it felt so bad

deft cosmos
#

The helbore is my plan for when the Plasma Gun gets delete from the game files by an intern

light crypt
#

LOL

austere mica
#

Helbore beats plasma for dedicated sniping already

livid sphinx
#

I do wonder how bad will the vet be once either shout gets nerfed or once they rework the plasma

deft cosmos
#

If you shoot your helbore and find yourself thinkg "by the heaven my shot has been stopped by a wall/several ragers/my clown teammate" then equip the plasma gun and it will just shoot through all of that

fair shale
#

Plasma isn't even vets best gun rn

livid sphinx
#

nahh plasma is still king

fair shale
#

ES is better than VoC

light crypt
deft cosmos
#

Chat what patch is Tongs playing on

fair shale
#

Same one as you

hollow ibex
#

plasma hasn't been the best gun for some time

austere mica
#

Melee exe is kinda really fun

#

Tried it today

#

need to take weapon spec off and full send

hollow ibex
hollow ibex
deft cosmos
#

Memes aside yeah Plasma's still good but not a free win now, Bolter if you can stomach the rack animation still slappeth

deft cosmos
austere mica
hollow ibex
deft cosmos
#

Melee exe gets some respectable brittleness and crit, also like 260 toughness

livid sphinx
#

This is the build i'm running for my plasma vet

deft cosmos
#

Looks pretty slick

#

This clam yearns to click faces

livid sphinx
#

I love seeing my name on the top left

hollow ibex
blazing jetty
#

"Aw man, my target is surrounded by a thick horde of poxwalkers. If only there was a weapon that could punch through all of them and hit my target."
The humble Locke Mk IIb Spearhead Boltgun:

light crypt
#

Also any recommendations for talent builds? I'm just going with whatever my scatter brain thinks is "yes....this do well"

austere mica
#

I either go back to WS or lobotomize my build for MF

deft cosmos
hollow ibex
#

the laughter you'll hear is people laughing at you for taking onslaught

light crypt
austere mica
#

Because they're good now

hollow ibex
#

you can take frags if you want too

light crypt
#

Ohh alr

livid sphinx
#

Frags are good if you're having trouble with hordes

austere mica
#

I should probably swap frags on my build

#

or not idk

livid sphinx
#

I choose krak because it can one shot crushers

#

or kill monsters quickly

austere mica
#

I choose kraks for bulwarks

deft cosmos
#

Dump a krak or two on a crusher patrol and W key

livid sphinx
#

^

light crypt
#

Tbh the main issue for me with this game is just figuring out weapon stats and how best to distribute em

deft cosmos
#

No problems here, offiver

fair shale
livid sphinx
#

Dont worry about it this early

fair shale
#

There's a couple of weird weapons

hollow ibex
#

plenty of exceptions tho

austere mica
#

Is this swap worth it

fair shale
#

Plasma wants 69 thermal and 71 charge or something

light crypt
hollow ibex
fair shale
#

The difference between 60 and 80 mobility is normally negligible

hollow ibex
#

while everything else is at 80

livid sphinx
austere mica
#

No I mean dumping BiD and +25 tough

light crypt
livid sphinx
#

Ohh

austere mica
#

I'm considering swapping so I can have a full exe build

#

But if I don't want to loose exploit weakness and agile I have to cut the +25 and BiD

livid sphinx
#

I'd choose MF personally for the toughness regen

#

Can't have everything

austere mica
#

and this is over having WS

livid sphinx
#

Yeah

#

Especially since you want to go ES

light crypt
#

Also 2 more questions from me then I'll buzz off:

  1. Does it matter the starting stats on a weapon when you first purchase it?
  2. Does it matter if I buy stuff from the Requestion tab rather than the Brunt's armory tab?
austere mica
#

but that 15% attack speed is kinda sexy and might matter for tac axe

livid sphinx
#
  1. Yes
  2. No
#

I mean yes in terms of looking at the max potential stats

#

but for actually starting stats no

light crypt
livid sphinx
austere mica
#

Also sad I don't like Killzone because I want the -.25 stam delay if I can

light crypt
#

Ohhh okay. I appreciate the help with this

hollow ibex
austere mica
#

I just said I don't like it

hollow ibex
#

MMF pathing does kinda suck

deft cosmos
#

If not I'm down to slam a couple games

light crypt
deft cosmos
#

Nice

#

The events always make you filthy rich

light crypt
#

Honestly idk where to even check

deft cosmos
#

Hold Tab in the hub area

hollow ibex
#

in addition to mission rewards

deft cosmos
#

Should give you the reward tiers

hollow ibex
#

tab and then E to cycle through if you don't see it

light crypt
#

Oh alr

blazing jetty
#

You get the rewards automatically every time you reach the next tier

deft cosmos
#

It'll give you enough mats to juice up some weapons

light crypt
#

Just need to pray at some shrines

hollow ibex
#

yeah

#

just pray

#

i promise nothing bad will happen 😄

deft cosmos
#

If you're looking for specific base stats on a weapon I just buy them from the comissary until I get the desired spread

blazing jetty
#

||The shrines spawn waves and sometimes bosses||

deft cosmos
light crypt
deft cosmos
#

Yeah nothing like that will happen

light crypt
deft cosmos
#

As long as you have time to charge the helbore, specials/bosses are fake

#

You've already outplayed them

blazing jetty
#

You can still progress if you skip the shrines by picking up the holy trinkets on the ground

fair shale
#

I thought the shrines always spawned a boss or two?

light crypt
#

I will ask what perks I should put on my curios.

I have these on my first one. the second one I haven't touched yet.

Blessings: 12% mas health
Perks:
10% Ordo Dockets
10% XP
5% Health

hollow ibex
#

xp is good for leveling and that's it

deft cosmos
#

Looks fine until 30

#

Yarp

hollow ibex
#

so good until 30

#

otherwise common picks are gunner resist, toughness, stam regen, and cdr

light crypt
#

With vet you wanna prioritize health since you already get a lot of toughness from the perk tree right?

hollow ibex
#

vet synergizes with toughness more

austere mica
#

No

#

Go all in

hollow ibex
#

though you'll still want to take some hp

austere mica
#

1 hp curio is enough

hollow ibex
#

because some enemies bypass toughness

hollow ibex
austere mica
#

or 3 perks

deft cosmos
#

%health gets you very little, I just do one 18% health curio and then oops all toughness

fair shale
#

Nah, you want to maximize toughness cause you get more benefit from iron will. Normally vet runs 1x 17 percent toughness, 1x 21 percent health, and 1x 3 stamina curios ime.

hollow ibex
#

i do 1 hp, 1 toughness, 1 stam

deft cosmos
#

3 stamina curio my sweet

fair shale
#

With 3x 5 percent toughness on them

hollow ibex
#

yeah 3 toughness, 2 gunner are core curio perks imo

light crypt
fair shale
#

uhhh

#

wdym by that

deft cosmos
#

I don't need 2 gunner because I just ragequit if they down me

light crypt
# fair shale wdym by that

Like 1 that has a blessing for health, one for stam, and one for toughness, then just even out perks with damage resist and stuff?

deft cosmos
#

Yeah

fair shale
#

Yes

light crypt
#

All the curios on sale for me are only for health🥀

deft cosmos
#

Combat ability regen is popular

light crypt
#

makes sense for vet with the shout ability

#

Anddd I just upgraded the wrong thing.....

#

Bruh

deft cosmos
#

It's over

#

restart

austere mica
#

The good curio perks are Toughness, Stam regen, Gunners DR, maybe hp, maybe cdr

#

Maybe 1 snipers if you have 200 hp

light crypt
light crypt
austere mica
#

Oh and revive speed

#

Keep forgetting thats good now

light crypt
#

How is it good now and not then?

austere mica
#

It applies to assists

#

Like trappers and ledges

deft cosmos
#

Oh really

#

Sheeesh

#

My friends are fairly handless, it'd save a lot of time

light crypt
#

Also when it comes to guns can I just keep my hellbore?

#

I have grown attached

livid sphinx
#

hey revive speed is godly too

austere mica
#

Helbore is probably the best sniper in the game

livid sphinx
#

especially in havocs

austere mica
#

For a dedicated duration sniper it is unbeatable

deft cosmos
#

Nothing claps ups a bomber in the next area code like a helbore

#

If a teammate is reliably melting bosses, just main helbore imo

austere mica
#

Infinite ammo, amazing breakpoints, good ADM's vs all, amazing range

deft cosmos
#

Power sword/duelling sword will shred hordes

austere mica
#

Ds does not shred hordes stop smoking

light crypt
#

Or power

#

Idk

deft cosmos
#

By shreds I mean delays so i can blame my teammates for not clearing it

austere mica
#

tac axe

livid sphinx
#

it does not shred hordes but it staggers them so they cant attack you

deft cosmos
#

Tac axe over combat you think

#

Combat axe pretty cool

light crypt
livid sphinx
#

Everything else

#

But dont get me wrong its not bad against hordes

deft cosmos
#

Poke through the eye slot of rager and crusher armor

tall torrent
#

duelling sword is strong single target

austere mica
tall torrent
#

but the literal worst melee vs horde in the game

austere mica
#

Tac axe is amazing

livid sphinx
#

nah that would be the knife

tall torrent
#

hits genuinely zero stagger breakpoints on anything that matters

deft cosmos
#

Nuh uh the combat axe has a pretty cool diagonal attack

#

And has bromentum

tall torrent
austere mica
#

Its got bromentum clear, a base crit mod and high finesse, great stagger, high mobility

#

Its so good

hybrid flame
#

Combat axe has perfect attack patterns

austere mica
#

Eh

#

They're annoying if you're short

deft cosmos
#

If you're short uninstall

tall torrent
#

combat axe is better than tac axe most of the time

light crypt
#

Which should I focus on upgrading since I'm going to be doing Helbore anyway? Power sword, Dueling sword, or tac axe?

deft cosmos
#

If you can't reach the top shelf don't join my team pls ty

light crypt
#

Or just combat since I've been using that a majority fo the time

deft cosmos
#

Any of those four are great up until the very very sweaty content

#

Just get good at melee with any of them and you're gaming

austere mica
#

They're great past that

deft cosmos
#

THey're great past havoc 40 confirmed

#

Go on

tall torrent
light crypt
hybrid flame
light crypt
#

Might just go with dueling and see how that fairs

deft cosmos
#

Send it

#

Pray you don't get 3x hive scum that let enemies just walk up to you

light crypt
#

Yikes....

tall torrent
light crypt
#

Time to scroll up to see the perks converstation

hybrid flame
#

I mean hipfire hellbore can't seem to miss headshots mid to close range

gilded pike
deft cosmos
#

Knife has basically never failed anyone

tall torrent
#

but both take away a lot of ur mixed horde clear

gilded pike
#

what build for knife?

#

I'm currently hoping recon lasgun brrt/shout covers my horde issues

austere mica
#

It will not

gilded pike
#

...ah

tall torrent
gilded pike
#

So uh, to avoid pissed off teammates, should I completely rethink my weapons lol

light crypt
#

What kind of final perk should I go for? I chose more xp and ordo dockets because yes

deft cosmos
#

Just make the inferno psyker do it

light crypt
slender elm
#

Does veteran have a talent node for uninterruptible heavies

tall torrent
#

and multiple

#

there're like 3?

slender elm
#

Which ones?

light crypt
#

ALR! Now I need a buddy to play with. @deft cosmos Looking at you

deft cosmos
#

Lemme grab some water

#

I'm crusty

light crypt
tall torrent
# slender elm Which ones?

get back in the fight (when ur toughness breaks)
leave no one behind (when ur teammates go down and is within ur view)
executioner's stance (when it's active)

light crypt
#

I gotta go do smth anyway

slender elm
#

Ah... I take none of those

#

Welp

tall torrent
slender elm
#

Yeah but im running toughness buff

tall torrent
#

it's ur choice

slender elm
#

Ye

#

So it's kinda whatever

#

I'm still exploring all the weapons

#

Though my most recent discovery is that you dont take weakspot kills on recon las

#

It's a lot of spread

tall torrent
light crypt
#

Very

#

Very

#

Laggy NA

tall torrent
#

ur in EU?

light crypt
#

At this point I might as well be

tall torrent
#

ok I'll quit and join

#

wats ur FS friend code

livid sphinx
#

Damn it I just played hellbore just because we talked about it here and it still doesn't feel good

deft cosmos
#

Tragically, it appears you are not born with helbore in your DNA, clam

light crypt
tall torrent
deft cosmos
#

I'm back and I'm raring to smooch heretics send me the code

light crypt

Lemme checkkkkkk

Feels bad because I love Kriegs but oh well

It's too bad that For the Drip isn't shared between mod users, but maybe someday I will not need it to look this good.

fair shale
#

Your helmet is clipping

#

So is your shoulder

#

And the belt

swift rock
#

All of which are so minor that I doubt anyone would notice them mid-match. Maybe the belt, but that's about all.

#

Which blessings are best for the duelling sword?

unreal nova
#

Ppl usually say riposte. I use agile to braindead harder and no think.

There might be one more choice, but I just woke up and can't be sure.

I'm timing my rapier chargeup stages with saltzpyre again

#

Like those crazy ass players that hold it juuust right when they see the rapier draw back slightly

azure narwhal

#

Take care of what

#

The 3 poxwalkers 100 feet behind the team

azure narwhal
#

Darktide hath shafted your expectations!

#

You're playing a game where ogryns understand jokes and philosophy

livid sphinx
#

Yo infantry lasgun is way more fun than what I remembered it back in vanilla

austere mica
livid sphinx
#

Like its essentially unlimited ammo like plasma

austere mica
#

Inflas just feels bad

azure narwhal
austere mica
#

And isn't good enough to justify using despite that

unreal nova
azure narwhal
#

Inf las is somewhat tolerable with MMF considering your aim

livid sphinx
#

I mean even with bad aim you will eventually get headshots with it because of the holy amount of ammo you have

azure narwhal
#

Rando question

#

What yall slide with

#

Keybind

austere mica
#

C

livid sphinx
#

ctrl

azure narwhal
#

Ive kept

#

Blitz C slide Mouse4

fair shale
#

I have dodge on space and jump on alt tbh

livid sphinx
#

so that while pressing shift I could just press it with my palm

austere mica
azure narwhal
#

Say what you want, i can slide without taking my finger off of anything, ever

narrow frost

azure narwhal
azure narwhal
fair shale
#

its the second after jacking your fov to max

azure narwhal
#

I remember when i first got VT years back

#

Literally the first thing i got told was

#

Keep your dodge on space and only for that

fair shale
#

Yeah like

#

How often do you really need to jump

unreal nova
livid sphinx
#

Bruh my brain is hardwired to press tab whenever I press alt

azure narwhal
#

And fov on vermintide no more than 95 because they do not know how to do fov and it will fuck with range perception

azure narwhal
azure narwhal
#

Okay tho but the fact its actually noticeable

#

Stormvermin glaives look MUCH further than they really are on max fov

#

Because they haven't implemented it well

unreal nova
azure narwhal
unreal nova
azure narwhal
#

Ok

#

Not that though for the love of god

#

Out of all the games

#

You chose one of the most input heavy MOBAs

#

And went

#

"Controller 👍 "

unreal nova
#

But is just, used to controller on L4D2.

unreal nova
azure narwhal
#

Lol jokes aside i get it

#

I played console for the longest time

#

I miss ps exclusives like

#

Bloodborne is gone

#

But eh

unreal nova
azure narwhal
#

I do love my steam

#

Well yeah

#

Emulation is getting real good

unreal nova
#

Coughs.

azure narwhal
#

ShadPS4 is putting in that work

#

Though i still am like

#

Very stingy about stuff i like

#

So i want to wait for it to truly be a stable experience of the original

#

Because needing mods to run the game stable when its so ancient and i have an overclocked 3070 is quite funni

unreal nova
#

And then PC port is a buggy mess.

azure narwhal
#

Like always lol

#

Even ghost of tsushima

#

One of the best ports imo

#

Has its fault

#

Being memory leak

azure narwhal
#

Gotta restart every 2 hours

unreal nova
#

Like, it somehow has worse performance than higher settings Cyberpunk.

azure narwhal
# unreal nova This is just DT.

Lmao
3 mods i never take off
Guarantee ability, weapon swap, weapon special. In vermintide, things happen when i press the button, here i have to do it 200 times

#

Buti feel like its gotten worse performance wise

#

Idk y

#

This update so

unreal nova
#

It has.

azure narwhal
#

Jittery

unreal nova
#

I went from low med to .ini edited below low.

#

Still lost 25~ fps.

#

Playing at 35 FPS avg is like...

azure narwhal
#

Oof

unreal nova
#

Pretty sure I should be able to get a stable 60 at least in most games on med high.

#

DT? Nope.

burnt pelican
#

Dt optimization is non existent

unreal nova
#

Enjoy your cinematic 24 fps.

burnt pelican
#

Also memory leaks happen way too often

fair shale
#

DT either runs buttery smooth at max settings or it plays like absolute trash for me and sometimes the difference is restarting the game

burnt pelican
#

After patch

#

Ive noticed dogs charge at you during sprint a shit ton this patch

fair shale
#

same

#

like no bark jumping mid sprint

burnt pelican
#

Yeap

unreal nova
#

Just gotta spam and hope you push.

burnt pelican
#

Pox bursters are currently most dangerous enemy ingame

#

Idk if they fixed their range yet

unreal nova
burnt pelican
#

I always crounch slide back with high mobility weapons xD

unreal nova
#

They now randomly don't ignite.

burnt pelican
#

Oh yeah ive seen that more often too

#

First pushes sometimes dont work

unreal nova
#

Still impossible to push in certain situations.

burnt pelican
#

I just push 3 times always

#

Which is crazy

unreal nova
#

16 pushes, all failed.

burnt pelican
#

Game is in a concerning state rn xD

fair shale
#

Ive had a lot of bursters not explode after they get pushed like 3 times tbh

burnt pelican
#

Pox also ignoring my voc at times

#

Not giving a fuck

#

They just dont give consent

unreal nova
burnt pelican
#

Lastly havoc special spawns rn are broken i think

#

Everyone on 40s agreed they seemed overtuned

#

Like bro 10+ specials waves

#

I had exec stance and it looked so stupid

unreal nova
#

Think winding down to zzz, goes to malice. 3 trappers constantly.

#

Trauma arises.

fair shale
#

The director loves to spam lately ime

#

Its not sending out mixed specialistsb

#

Its "oh one bomber didn't work? Two more"

unreal nova

3+ dogs, 3+ muties.

Like, this is malice, not auric, what even?

#

And is like the min is 2 at once.

#

But a third is always ready to pop out on a dime.

Cuz they dont feel like bs anymore since the patch

#

I wish we had 3 more of these

#

I want to make an infinity gauntlet meme

#

Also why didn't they give us this master piece

agile mortar
#

what's the use of the Sapper Shovel stab? Not the one where you flip it, the one mark where it doesn't do that
what's it good for
it's slow and deals less damage than a light attack

#

useless

open ravine
#

I think it's for the stagger

agile mortar
#

Heavy attacks do that way better

#

I think it's just useless

open ravine
#

Some weapons just got a useless alt

#

Like gun bashing is useless on the autoguns

unreal nova
azure narwhal
# agile mortar useless

Quite the opposite, it has enough stagger to knockback crushers on weakspot hit. This is useful not only to provide an opening but it also procs skullcrusher which allows you to instantly buff your most damaging move on the sapper shovel, your push attack. Weakspot stab -> PA

Bruh they need to just add the balaclava on it's own as a cosmetic.

Here she was

#

Absolute bad bitch

fading yarrow
#

Ahh

Her boots are also from the Acolyte rotation but you can get her hat from the current Commissar bundle

fading yarrow
#

If you're short on Aquilas there's currently a one-time offer of 4k for five bucks, if you haven't nabbed that yet

mystic pilot
#

That got refreshed?

fading yarrow
#

Also also. Commissar Yarrick's bolt pistol is in the Zealot tab

fading yarrow
mystic pilot
#

I nabbed it lol and got my veteran DKoK outfit before this rotation and the vox caster backpack

fading yarrow
#

peepoBlanketThumbs I got the grey Krieg coat with it, too, plus the Commissar boots and bolt pistol

#

Hopefully got enough leftover for the Krieg Commissar hat when that rolls around

fading yarrow
#

Dang that's a good one too

mystic pilot
#

Seem the rotation theme is Yarrick and Armageddon Steel Legion

fading yarrow
#

Indeed

#

The greenskin finger trinket is metal

mystic pilot
#

Any pieces from the new rotation that can be added to a DKoK outfit?

mystic pilot
fading yarrow
#

Nah, I mean I used some of the 4k Aquila offer for the Krieg coat, then used more of it for the boots and skin

fading yarrow
#

Maybe the Commissar boots ig

mystic pilot
#

Wait the boots and skin from this rotation?

#

Ah yeah

fading yarrow
mystic pilot
#

Gotcha

#

The skin is the same one that the boots are from?

maiden vector
#

I would have more reasons to scream CADIA STANDS and TRAITOR

hasty grove
#

Gonna try to make a commissar build

#

Bistol. power falchion, VoC, gajillion coherency buffs

maiden vector
#

Why not just PS

#

It's also better, tho

autumn sorrel
#

Do shredder frags and Puncture from the bolt pistol stack?

maiden vector
#

Playing from bleeds on vet not best idea

#

Imo, vet plays more from crits

autumn sorrel
#

Ah cool

maiden vector
#

Frag is cool for horde

#

Bc they just bleed out

gilded pike
maiden vector
#

But in other cases, meh

gilded pike
#

Dueling Sword vibes def seem very commissar

maiden vector
hasty grove
maiden vector
#

Also, ye, DS is definitely commissar vibe

gilded pike
maiden vector
#

As I know, DS just bad

hasty grove
#

Alot of art depicts them with power falcions or power swords

maiden vector
#

Like, compared to PS

fair shale
#

Its very good at very specific things

#

Single target damage and mobility

#

Power Sword is simply broken

ivory crater
#

DS is good for movement KEKW_ogryn

gilded pike
#

So uh if I'm trying to get into Havocs for the first time and wanna stack the deck, should I just embrace the power sword chargeup spam

fair shale
#

I mean

gilded pike
#

already a bit resigned to using bolter/plasma gun lol

hasty grove
#

How can I amass large amounts of diamantine?

fair shale
#

It depends on you tbh

#

You can use whatever you want

maiden vector
#

I wish flaslights have more love for them

fair shale
#

But you gotta be good enough to use it ime

maiden vector
#

NOT operations

#

Just regular missions

gilded pike
fair shale
#

I don't think vet is reliable cheese tbh

gilded pike
#

ooof

fair shale
#

Vet is strong but they require input most of the time

hasty grove
#

Wait

gilded pike
#

wait so what class would be

hasty grove
#

I can make a Krieger commissar

fair shale
#

Even power sword, for as busted as it is, requires a hit of a mentality tweak

ivory crater
maiden vector
fair shale
#

Psyker is the strongest

gilded pike
hasty grove
fair shale
#

What havoc tier are you at?

ivory crater
#

Good ole shield bubble and voidblast spam

gilded pike
#

did an auric to start at 16

fair shale
#

What do you want to use specifically

hasty grove
fair shale
#

Cause ime havoc 16 ain't too bad

quick shell
#

Hav16 is much easier than auric mael

gilded pike
#

I'm fond of the recon lasgun and krak but am willing to ditch anything to optimize

quick shell
#

Hav16 feels like heresy with a couple of modifiers

maiden vector
maiden vector
#

For 1,200 more money

#

I.e. default kit is soldier and default + helmet is officer

#

Bc helmet IS officer Krieg

fair shale
gilded pike
#

honestly I'd appreciate a straight up link to it

fair shale
#

Give me like 5 minutes and I'll go find mine

gilded pike
#

Appreciated

fair shale
#

The gun

#

Anyway

hasty grove
gilded pike
#

party like it's the months of shame

quick shell
#

How good is db vet for havoc

#

I’m a little curious actually

fair shale
#

DB is possibly the single strongest gun on vet rn

quick shell
#

Oh neat

#

It does feel good

maiden vector
fair shale
#

If you're good that shit will hit Purge Psyker numbers

quick shell
#

What primary is it often run with, I’ve been running chaxe to solid success

fair shale
#

Shovel is normal ime

quick shell
#

Also is this shout or exe

#

I’m assuming exe

fair shale
#

I think Cole uses shout

quick shell
#

Oh awesome

fair shale
gilded pike
#

recon lasgun for bosses instead of hordes?

fair shale
#

And you take dum dum, not head hunter

fair shale
#

Especially on lower havocs

gilded pike
#

So uh, what grenade and melee pairs with this?

fair shale
#

Kraks delete bulwarks and crushers so you don't have to shoot them

gilded pike
#

mmm

#

Would that lock me into anti-crowd melee?

fair shale
#

Well

#

You can take PS and have an anti everything melee

#

I thought my recon was better so I'm gonna respecify collat dump and dum dum instead of headhunter

#

So if someone pings me with an uhm actually later I can legally kill them

gilded pike
#

def mk 12 recon ye

#

?

#

also what would you say are good alternatives to power sword for tryharding/Havoc non-throwing

fair shale
#

Iirc the 12 is the most ammo effecient with the fastest fire rate so it stacks infernus better

fair shale
#

Shovel is comfortable

#

Hard to go wrong with shovel

quick shell
fair shale
inner iris
#

You mostly want the fastest firing one just for running internus or onslaught

fair shale
#

Onslaught is Not Good™

quick shell
fair shale
#

Because you should not be shooting crushers with most things

gilded pike
#

Hm so spelling out: what perks/blessings would you advise for PS? paired with recon

inner iris
#

Onslaught isn't bad, it's just not necessary

gilded pike
#

and thoughts on curios?

quick shell
#

Power sword is probably cara u yielding

#

And its power cycler and sunder

fair shale
#

Then I personally run 3 toughness, 3 revive speed, 3 gunner resist

fair shale
#

Afaik this is as optimal as you're gonna make a powersword

hollow aspen
#

What's the best melee to go with Plasma Gun?

#

... I really like the Plasma Gun lmao

quick shell
#

Plasma sword

tame lodge
#

Power Sword
Axe
Tactical Axe

quick shell
#

Answer to basically every question of ‘what’s best melee for vet’ is almost ALWAYS psword

fading yarrow
fair shale
#

No.

hasty grove
#

Just showing us matching

fading yarrow
hasty grove
#

For No Man’s Land

#

But not all of us had Krieg so we switched to Steel Legion

faint beacon
#

Steel Legion > DKOK

#

🚬

still dove
#

can i replace DS with taxe or power sword on a plasma weapons specialist build

hollow ibex
#

Yeah

still dove
#

bet because DS is boring me

azure narwhal
azure narwhal
#

Taxe is the true darktide experience

#

Play fotf martyr taxe zealot and let's see how strong those hands are

true jackal
#

rampage hive scum can crank attack speed higher I believe

azure narwhal
#

I don't know about em so Sitgryn

#

I only play vet psyker n zealot nowadays

fair shale
#

I play Taxe rampage scum semi often

#

Is fun

azure zephyr
#

Haven't tried the Power Falchion, how good is it compared to the Power Sword?

faint beacon
fair shale
#

It isn't

#

Most things are not good compared to PS tho

azure zephyr
#

Ahh.

azure narwhal
azure narwhal
#

But yeah power sword is king

faint beacon
#

Then they all climb back in

hollow ibex
faint beacon
#

And move to the next person

#

LMAO

hollow ibex
#

It has a niche

azure narwhal
#

Lolol

hollow ibex
#

But it’s just whatever

azure narwhal
#

I stuck to krieg from a style standpoint more than anything really

azure narwhal
#

Then i read about their story of paying penance

#

Pretty cool, since i play dark angels.

#

Dow4 intensifies

#

Only if primaris didn't suck balls

faint beacon
azure narwhal
#

Of course

faint beacon
#

Steel Legion is 40Ks Blitzkrieg

#

DKOK is raw attrition

azure narwhal
#

Yeah

#

Iron warriors-esque in a way

#

Anyhow. I hope the total war game turns out well really

#

For me its bleak because i just cant seem to enjoy most present 40k stuff

#

But its whatever, still new thing to play with

faint beacon
#

Look I’m just hoping even if it requires mods I can have my IG be the Steel Legion

azure narwhal
#

Lmao fair

#

You will tho

#

1000%

#

Through mods especially

swift rock
faint beacon
#

SL is more Fallschirmjäger inspired I’d say with how some of their camo patterns are

faint beacon
#

But yeah generally they’re WW2 tactics

#

WW1 is Krieg

#

I have 2 questions, whats the best mark for the power falchion and whats the best way to use the plasma gun?

tame lodge
#

Plasma gun never charge

#

Just M1 spam

dapper bison
#

Y the wording like that?

tame lodge
#

Least shit?

#

Because Falchion bad

dapper bison
#

Wat melee you recommend?

hasty grove
tame lodge
#

Whatever damage and stagger
Dogshit blessings pool

deft cosmos
#

Whatever stimulates brain activity for you

hasty grove
deft cosmos
azure zephyr
#

I like that weapon and all, but it's primary heavy just sucks for dealing with crowds

hollow ibex
dapper bison
#

Why is the dueling sword so powerful, do i not understand something?

hollow ibex
deft cosmos
#

It handles hordes decently and has insane single target

#

Also good dodge count iirc

hollow ibex
#

The horde clear is ass

#

It’s mostly good mobility and single target

#

And a bot could play it

deft cosmos
#

Mobility and ease of play != handles hordes decently

#

Very informative

dapper bison
#

Whats the beat melee for hordes, can decently kill elites

hollow ibex
#

You handle by dodging until your anemic horde clear whittles them down

hollow ibex
deft cosmos
#

Power sword or combat axe

tame lodge
#

While the horde clearing isn't that good
It does have the ability to 1 shot the first poxxer on light attacks
While also having 4.5 cleave

dapper bison
#

Rashad?

hollow ibex
#

Caxe

true jackal
#

a particular variant of combat axe

azure zephyr
true jackal
#

generally has the best swing angles and doesn't have a useless stat iirc

dapper bison
#

So which one is better for general use or are they on par with each other

deft cosmos
#

On par

#

Just don't be terrible

true jackal
#

the achlys has a janky moveset iirc and the antax has cleave targets which is useless with brutal mometum(which is what makes combat axes viable)

dapper bison
#

Iirc?

deft cosmos
#

If I Recall Correctly

#

Rashad is the sauce yeah

dapper bison
#

Rashad is the combat axe correct?

#

If so what mark?

true jackal
#

rashad is the mark

deft cosmos
#

That's the mark

dapper bison
#

Oh its one of those

deft cosmos
#

Aye

tame lodge
#

Rashad Mk2 iirc

#

Or was it mk3

deft cosmos
#

It's the one that says Rashad

#

I should eventually get 80% damage but this setup feels smooth in Auric

dapper bison
#

Dump stat for the plasma?

hollow ibex
#

@tired egret

deft cosmos
#

Based name

dapper bison
#

But i have a 69 charge and 71 thermal plasma

deft cosmos
#

Still very good

#

It'll work forever

dapper bison
#

Wdym?

swift rock
#

Played my Helbore Crit build. It's okay, but I think I aught to give recon lasgun a try.

deft cosmos
swift rock
#

Also, might switch from marksman to stealth for my ability.

deft cosmos
#

I've seen infiltrate be a great clutch tool

azure narwhal
#

Infiltrate is fun and has its uses but is definitely the worst of the three

deft cosmos
#

Executioner Stance seems too good to pass up for helbore though

azure narwhal
#

Exec stance is insane rn overall

deft cosmos
#

VoC is so broadly strong that I default to it

azure narwhal
#

Voc is nice too

deft cosmos
#

Executioner is definitely the sauce if I'm leaning forward in my chair

hollow ibex
#

ES = VOC >>>>>>>>>> cuckfil

quick shell
#

I prefer voc

deft cosmos
#

Misread cuckfil and chickfila

swift rock
quick shell
#

Es feels powerful even if you only get a couple of resets

#

Tbh

#

I still kinda prefer voice?

dapper bison
#

Weapon specialist or focus target?

swift rock

quick shell
#

I don’t like helbore tbh

It's ok
Helby is a love it or hate it type of weapon

weapon specialist for you then

WS is THE hybrid keystone

quick shell

Anyone has a WS build?

tall torrent
fair shale
#

WS one of the most just works keystones in DT tbh

#

Don't have to do anything funny

tall torrent
fair shale
#

Just play right

tall torrent
#

this is as basic as it gets

#

take trench fighter for combat axe

swift rock
quick shell
tall torrent
#

use an actual melee weapon

quick shell
#

Is the bayonet still any good

prime wyvern
swift rock
tall torrent
#

it's only decent single target

swift rock
tall torrent
#

but not enough to match actual single target dps melee weapons

swift rock
#

Caxe is still better, but bayonet is okay in a pinch.

deft cosmos
#

An axe is better than a bayonet? By the gods

dapper bison
#

For the Rashah, is there any knowledge of the weapon i should know like a interaction i should need to know

deft cosmos
#

Is the Helby a one shot weapon or do you just click heads repeatedly

deft cosmos

#

Guys is power sword worth using on vet ?

deft cosmos
hard prairie
#

what perks and blessings do you recommend

prime wyvern
#

power cycler

swift rock
tall torrent
#

(there's only 1 class that can use power sword)

hard prairie

Nice imma start levelling power sword thing ty guys

tame lodge

unless you need to stagger something to not die immediately

swift rock

#

What blessing should I use though?

tall torrent
tame lodge
#

Power Cycler + Sunder/Brutal Momentum

deft cosmos
#

Sunder

#

Is so nasty

quick shell
# dapper bison Alright

Heavy attack does less damage to maniac than light, push attack can stagger ragers out of their attack chains in auric, idk about havoc

tall torrent
#

this got patched like a year ago

dapper bison
#

I have 2 talent points unsure where to put them

quick shell
#

That was always funny to me

#

Mfw I oneshot a mutant with a light and do 25% with a heavy

tall torrent
quick shell
#

I mean yeah I can

dapper bison
#

@tall torrent i have 2 talent points, you have any suggestions

dapper bison
#

From the pic, i have the WS with always prep, shout with the gold toughness and then the trench training

tall torrent
dapper bison
#

(I assume attack speed affects charge rate)

dapper bison
#

Really?!

tall torrent
#

yea they're 2 separate things

#

for plasma, build this

dapper bison
#

Man isnt this game's just so intuitive

dapper bison
#

Ig the only thing left is curios

quick shell
#

I’d assume attack speed effects fire rate but not charge rate

tame lodge
#

Truly a big fish moment

deft cosmos
#

Does +carapace damage not affect any Plasma breakpoints?

narrow frost
#

not worthwhile to shoot carapace

deft cosmos
#

Fair

tame lodge
#

Yeah that's just about it

dapper bison
#

what curios?

deft cosmos
#

I always forget they doubled crusher hp

tame lodge
#

On maulers/plasma gunner you go for body

#

On scab rager you go for headshots

#

And shooting crushers is just waste of ammo

woeful field
#

I like shooting armor :]

#

'S fun

#

With plasma

azure narwhal
#

Long as its not carapace

#

Though the funniest thing to see is the textbook new vet player wanting to shoot EVERYTHING with recon las

#

Muh onslaught

quick shell
#

I mean u can kinda do that because of shock trooper no?

azure narwhal
#

YOU WILL MELEE CARAPACE AND YOU WILL ENJOY IT

Its shit dps

or at that

#

any vehichle

#

that's better

faint flume
#

I prefer a baneblade over a horse

mystic pilot
# azure narwhal horses>cars

Death Riders are cool. But as an infantry squad you want to be in Steel Legion. Then you get a chimera of your own that protect you inside while getting to your destination and then give you fire support as you disembark and engage the objective
