You said flamers and trappers get you/your team the most
What about the revolver or shredder auto?
Those do great maniac damage
yes more or less those flamers, even though i keep watching backline soimetimes it just wipes us
I run the bolt pistol is that any good?
or should i change to revolver
It's good but more of a buff stick then weapon
You really only take it for lethal proximity buff
Because there are way better damage dealers then it
Helbore bolter plasma
Ainz you’re built different; don’t recommend shredder for newer players 
Unless thats your intent to spread the shredder propaganda 
Both good; both viable for vet
Try both & see how they compare 
it is very inconsistent but at best the demonhost will still change alert stages after you leave smoke, and at worst you will trigger it while in smoke
so yes it delays, but it will never allow you to move past it for free
unless we're talking about h40, which I am guessing the original dude asking the question is not playing, bolt pistol can reliably kill every special and elite with one crit body shot except mutants, ogryns, and maulers
but in any case rev is good, just stricter
thanks for responding guys, i will try to use boltpistol and recon lasgun and practice to death until i become a better veteran, i guess using ogryn arbites and zealot gives you bad habits of just literally facetanking everything
it definitely does
although a lot of it can be undone by just spamming dodge whenever you hear the backstab sound effect
and dodgle sliding in general is also very effective
and also lowkey vet can often be more tanky than zealot because of VoC and iron will lol
I've seen that behaviour in a friend as Zealot can face tank a lot.
They're learning Vet themselves and finding it more difficult to stay in the fight than usual.
Or you can play like I do and face tank the horde whether it’s a good idea or not
I always block push and dodge at the same time when I hear the sound and then check what is attacking me
what makes Rashad really good on vet
I've been trying to get used to it but I don't like when it stops cleaving enemies in a crowd
I got momentum to help with that, but
still happens
Also is there any vet talents that work kinda like the zealot stamina on crit perk?
Kills everything at a reasonable time
Focus Target and Marksman Focus node
Also weapon specialist thing
anyone got any good sneaky-beaky builds?
been running voice of command for tooooo long
ive ran this mostly. not optimized but worked fine in aurics
Looks fine
no melee attack speed and no tinkerer is kinda eh
i feel tinkerer is no mandatory with frags
what gun u runnin?
infantry auto usually with that but double barrel works well if taking the ammo talent from weapon specialist
revolver too
i wouldnt take the extra ammo node then
its kinda shit ngl
It may be
trench fighter decent pick if dropping extra ammo
Let man enjoy homself
the weapon or the extra ammo
the weapon
yeah most dont like falchion
well unfortunately i do so i'll keep playing it, don't play my vet above aurics so not the end of the world not having the best weapon
do so
always run what you prefer or like
you'll do better that way
than force something that doesnt click
I prefer 2b ,,the round one,,
is it the one which's light attack string ends with stab
No
i didn't even look to see there was marks but i'm using the mark 1
it ends with the stab
yeah i like that one over 2b
im more of a combat axe guy but for havocs its been 24/7 chainsword
its fun when you get the passive reload skill
just blast someone, swap to couple melee kills and blast again
Yeah. And then the +12% recharge speed for the ability on my Curios means I'm running around like a maniac killing everything in sight.
misused to hell
It looks cool but it's mid
Funny laser pointer
based and trenchpilled
Who's the bad Hank?
Why did you need to ask that
You said you named him the good Hank.
The bad Hank is the worst comisar in the war hammer40k darktide seting
He eats babys that how evel he is
Ok
😭😭😭💪
well i'm sure corpse starch has the occasional baby thrown in the batch so we all eat babies, some just maybe more than others
SILKSONG RAAAAGH!
It’s quite a bit worse at breakpoints because it doesn’t get nearly the same crit chance and the base damage model is not as reliable for weakspot 1 taps
Hey, anyone got that image of the cat with the shotgun? I'm uploading my build to Games lantern.
I need a funny image.
so when did they make the Kasrkin helmet actually kickass?
Yesterday
This one?
Epic I love it
Prob a bug tho
I swear to god if they change it back someone is being exploded
Thank you!
we have command squad too
they finally added the baseball caps

you know you're good when you can punch someone so hard they start bleeding out (Knife punch and that penance that gives bleed on melee attack)
And they look good af
visor clips through so prob a bug
I really doubt it's not meant to be there
my bet, they'll fix whatever visor bug but keep it as a whole
imma get the gate pattern helmet anyway
why would they have a whole fucking vizor modelled on the helmet if they weren't gonna use it?
finally a proper kasrkin omnishield helm
Image?
wait that's just
the helmet
where can I get this?
helmet, torso & legs should be releasing tmr?
(backpack sold previously but might return tmr cuz they added 2 recolors of it yesterday)
^
shop, tmr (maybe)
paid
welp
here's hoping someone makes a mod to keep this version of the helmet like this
there's already ForTheDrip which is a client-sided mod
U can customize ur cosmetics
yep this is mine now
It’s fully client sided so only u can see
Other people still see ur base cosmetic before customization
I'm already using weapon customization I know how it works
so basically what I should do is wear a "Good enough" outfit as a base, then turn it into a masterpiece for myself
epic
Yez
Customization of the customization 
so huh
how do I
actually uh
use the mod
Wher can I buy this outfit
It looks ameizing
presumably at the aquila place tommorow
Did you even read the message? 
No
welp you can't argue with that
Low key I just see cool armor
well it's justified
until then you can use the uh
This one
it's seemingly bugged to have a similar but red vizor
and for the body and leg
IDK just buy some generic green gear from Commissary
May I suggest literally just wearing the entire Killshot's Day Uniform set
@tall torrent please help
Idk I don’t use it
I don’t use unstable mods basically
How about asking in the actual modding discord
I own this
great then use this
How to use it:
- Set the keybind to open the UI
- Make sure to be in 3rd person mode to change your gear's look for a better experience
- Select which slots you want the apply changes for better control (primary == melee weapon, secondary == ranged weapon)
- Change materials and apply (if the option to apply automatically isn't selected)
Commands:
- /save_drip -> save the current preset so you can load it later
- /reset_drip -> restore the default look of you gear (save before using it if you want to keep the look !)
- /refresh_drip -> re-apply the current preset in case it got overridden
Known issue:
- If you change or refresh the look of your gear in first person mode some things may appear (like candle lights), going to the 3rd person and back fixes it
- If your cursor disappear try opening and closing the window again
- If the window goes out of screen it bugs out, use the reset keybind
- Changing loadout mess the preset display in the inventory menu until it's opened again
- The eye glow some helmets disappear when the mod is on
- Can sometime crash the game when changing cosmetics
Implemented:
- Show/Hide attachments (clothes only)
- Change body masks to hide part of the body/hairs
- Per attachment changes customization (clothes only at first, I need to make it compatible with the weapon customization mod)
- Show/Hide body parts
Upcoming:
- Add hairs to head gear without hairs (like helmets)
- Named presets
- Add existing attachments to items (from owned items only, including items from other classes for human characters and some npc gear)
Planned Changes:
- adding Decals to the gear
- Per loadout preset
- Team wide preset (won't work with attachment specific changes)
- Better UI
- Custom material editor (with the existing material components, so no new color or texture)
oh crap tutorial
thx
It was in the pins of the for the drip thread
The vizor changes the hole look
yes
Miku marine
she has a volkite gun called miku miku beam
I do not know?
its from a hatsune miku song
And now it's time for what you've been waiting for!
One!
Two!
Threeeeee!
Ready?
MIKU MIKU BEEEEEEEEEEAM
I do not lison to hatsune miku songs
We eating well tomorrow guys?
we are talking about wep specialist which guarantees crit chance
and the base damage is reliable to 1 tap with non-crit weakspots
why, what's happening tomorrow
bro we are starving, not eating well
Food is food
Yes, revolver still scales significantly better than boltpistol for this exact use case
I literally have their per shot damage listed in my guide
Revolver is just better for breakpoints
What would win: the iconic oversized hand cannon firing a rocket-propelled projectile OR some dinky chunk of metal first assembled when the Emperor was an infant
So you're saying the Emperor made this holy weapon in his youth?!
Uh what is the best all rounder mark for the power falch
I think Mk1 is the recommended
the weird thing about a lot of the veteran commisary pieces is that the patterns don't match a lot of the time so you have to interchange sets
FRAG GAMERS
Do you find a tangible benefit to using grenade tinkerer for the frags?
I vaguely recall it being 50% in the past, but maybe I'm lighting my gas
it's 50% with lethal proximity from boltpistol
thats why its recommended on the bomber build in the pinned guide
run it with lethal prox from boltpistol for maximum blast radius

I take it this means I need to throw the grenade and then switch to the pistol for the explosion?
just reading the guide HELPS a lot
as you can see it explain the Lethal Proximity quite well

I was checking for info on the grenade specifically, so I didn't think of checking that blessing
Odd that it would work without being equipped, but I guess even Darktide won't be consistent on stuff like that
its easier to do that than
"oh I have my melee out, I need to switch to my ranged. then yeet my grenade/boom"
Definitely
i thought fatshark highlighting the guide in the launcher would mean less shit build vets
came across one in damnation that seemed to fill out the entire upper section before making their way down -_-
lol don't think most of the active people in this server even know abt it
most of them just lurk
only ~5.5k unique visitors on it
idk man i don't think i like this auric rotation right now
not feeling particularly good about any of them
ooh power supply just popped up yes please
guys is the plasma rifle good? I only ever encountered one person using it
Very good
Very boring
its good, but it gets better as the density of enemies increases
It’s just a terribly designed weapon
in lower difficulties, faster firing but weaker guns are going to be "better"
Even if it’s strong
You heard it here first, rejects. The Emperor is an American. USA USA USA!
the power sword is so good. I cant survive for the life of me lmao
Top tier
too bad, I have decided to stick to my bolter
Boltgun also ok
finally got the long bomb penance. i now have not one but TWO decent looking helmets
Grats 
Im starting to enjoy ghost blessing
Standing infront of two reapers, three gunners, and some shooters like, can't hit me, I ain't suppressed
huh
are you trying to imply that recon las and infantry autogun are bad
No, I’m saying lower damage per shot doesn’t matter when enemies have less health. So you would rather have faster firing rate
oh
I run a 70/70 and i cant be fucked to try and get better
Same
69/71 is so absurdly specific I just got any one with 80 on the other 3 and ran with it I can't even remember what the % was for those 2 on mine
people be throwing away thousands of bucks just to shoot 0.01 seconds faster
Any reason I shouldn't try this class?
you have limited time in your life which should be spent on hivescum instead
Counterpoint, broke.
owned
learnin curve
Worse than the others I'm guessing?
you have an aversion to skirmisher's movement requirements
How movement
Need a 10 step plan to dodge a mutty ?
it's not...terribly difficult
there's just this 'oh, i was dealing with this horde and forgot to sprint/slide in the last 10 seconds, now muh dps dropped a bit' feeling that isn't there in the other classes
except maybe IJ zealot?
Isn't there other builds than that...?
that don't use it? sure
it's that the lower right side of the tree is so fucking stacked for damage
literally free damage for playing the game, you prob shouldn't avoid it
I was planning something explosive for playing vet...
10 seconds is just kinda nuts, i bet they will nerf it
Shouldn't?
Uh
Hmmm
You're not big man
I wouldn't mind them lowering the duration and making it on dodge too or something like that
Maybe even having it stack immediately after starting to sprint, I dunno
At least it's better than it used to be
I don't like being slow.
-# that's my one issue with le biggins. He big slow slow.
Then I have no reason as to why you shouldn't vet
if u get caught in melee ur cooked basically
depending on ur enemies
Emphasis on base though
especially if your team just decides to rob all ur ammo and dont care about you
It just doesn't feel fast per the pov... I mean ye
I totally get the animation part being slow because big = slow
maulers u can handle if you manage ur krak grenades
Still a problem for any class
And it is unfortunate that you won't play Oggy because of that
but like 5 ragers coming at you will clear you easily
I have and enjoyed playing le biggs
The vet isn't vulnerable at all in melee
So yeah
Play vet
Happens to me as well in biggs but psyk ok

I need a pepe with the usual guardsmen gear
don't rely on just your gun, use your melee too
esp for horde clear and crushers
gun can handle everything else
I dont understand how to use shotguns, vigilant autoguns, or braced autoguns. They all just seem inferior to the infantry autogun.
braced is pretty bad
shotguns and vig are strong
but both of those are very build-dependant
Rip
I also dont understand firearm melee attacks. Why not just pull out your melee weapon?
oh boy =w =
like the weapon stock bash? it's just for stagger
i mean, they're all good, arent they?
can be useful
I need to try the infantry auto
vraks is a beast
Yeah, Vraks is my boy
and i want to use some of the other but i just dont understand how they could perform at the same level.
see pinned guide
it'll tell you how to build the guns
there's a lot of ways to build combat shotgun
but VAG and DB builds are fairly set
Iirc the Columnus has some recoil control
On a proper build you get a pretty steady weapon
"build"?...
How good is the Power Falchion with crowd control?
ok when powered
when it's off, abysmal dogshit
and the only real cc it has is just killing things
so keep that in mind
they're for aura and hype moments
=w =
its because fatshark couldnt think of an actually useful special and didnt feel like adding a flashlight
i wish veteran had a perk that let you not get knocked/stunned while using special action on guns
i love the braced autogun but it sucks since a single hit kicks you out of aiming it
With plasma gun I don't even have to worry about that when I can just blast foes through walls.
u do
Talent tree and blessings + traits on your weapons
Looks fun
Check pinned guide
... I see.
Maybe should be reformatted to a version that you can go to specific parts. But that's my own ick.
How bad is ammo as a dump stat?
U can, use navigation panel on the right
am dumb.
maaaan i dont need to become world's greatest darktide player i just wanna know how to use these weapons/mechanics properly so that they dont feel useless in my hands
You will get there someday
<w>
so what? just keep using them?
what about things like weapon bash where i dont even understand why i would use them
to push groaners away from you
U don’t need to use them
Not every special action is worth using
yeah i mean there's no point for the bash but it's got a use somehow
but you can just do that with your melee weapon, and if they get that close, shouldnt you be pulling out the whacker anyway?
then why were they programmed in?
idk bro why not
You’re playing a FatShark game buddy
every game has stuff that seems pointless
Don’t try to make sense out of nonsense
i never even heard of FatShark before
my goat flashlight

this game has tables and graphs and can tell you every little number of every single thing and some entire mechanics are just useless?
what else is useless?
left 4 dead 2 reference idk idk
Yea it happens
indeed
F***
A lot of blessings
Some classes’ certain talents
90% of all blessings
Combat Axe special attack
A lot of perks too
😳
what is helbore good for again? just for precision on snipers?
or is there a specific build for it
Infinite ammo high damage 1 taps
with what career skill
Stance obviously
stance
"career skill" bro thinks he playin vermintide 2
executioner stance only lasts 5 seconds tho does it really get that much value out of it
Are we playing the same game wtf
So is it even worth trying to figure out anything.
no way am I tweaking hold on lemme check
not by urself
thankfully our lord and savior sir path "Guide WIP" exe compiled all the data for us
is there gonna be a "yes" or "no" at the top of that guide?
im not in college dawg i just wanna play a game
No but it’ll answer a lot of ur questions about the game prob
bro put build templates in the guide and recommended weapon setups
yeah it says it lasts 5 seconds and im struggling to see how much value you can get from that
unless there's something in the talent tree that makes it last longer
it refreshes duration when u kill a marked enemy
wow okay so the talent tree just doesnt wanna say that
it does
that is really strong actually
wait nevermind
i just cant read
thanks though now I might actually try out the helbore
yeah ive been hearing that
why do i need to read a textbook to play figure out this game

U don’t need to
You just have been asking questions that the guide would have helped answer
You dont. Just some mechanics will stay unexplained
And it’s not like u need to read the entire thing either
Just intro sections then skip to whatever u want rly
Obv this depends on how new you’re to the game
The index alone is massive. How am i going to find what i need.
Are you saying no one here has the answers for me?
What is ur question now
How do i use vigilent autoguns or shotguns effectively
because they all feel inferior in every way to a Vraks gun
Shoot trapper/flamer/bomber/gunner in the head
Vraks mk5 inf auto is really strong yes
elites and specialist, ok
I don’t think combat shotgun as good
You shouldn’t be shooting at everything in the first place
Mainly just specialists and ranged elites
if all the weapons and choices arent equal, why are they presented as such?
for the purposes of auric they might as well be equal
none of the guns are unusably bad in aurics and the only ones that are noticably worse are bottom of the barrel stuff like infantry lasgun and braced autoguns
But for the difficulties you’re prob playing rn the discrepancy between weapons isn’t that large
Auric is not highest difficulty
It’s second highest
Why do things become equal at the highest difficulties?
Sorry what
They’re not equal
man I don't know where they got that
^^^^^
For one auric isn’t the highest
And two if you know what you’re doing, pretty much every weapon is playable in auric
Ok. but i dont know what im doing or how to learn
Some are still just clearly better tho
What difficulty are u playing atm and what’s ur main struggle
shouldnt they have been balanced out in game patch updates?

We kinda all wish they could lol
welcome to the company named Fatshark

I mean yeah they should have been balanced but skill is typically as big a factor as equipment
I’d also like to tell u that this is almost the best “balance” state in the game thus far
there are cruddy weapons but you can outskill 90% of scenarios
It used to be way worse
Haz 2 and 3
My main struggle is... i dont understand how to use the weapons that i want to.
Sorry, i know thats not really a 'struggle'
What are the weapons ur using and what are u dying to
And what are the weapons you want to use
im not dying much, im just performing poorly
Shotgun and vilgilant
also knowing when to use their alt actions
Which shotgun
sorry, tactical shotgun
And for vig auto, use mk3
Combat shotgun?
yes
You can check both weapons in the pinned guide if u want more nuanced answers but basically
Vig auto 3, very general purpose gun, strong ammo economy, 1 bursts every important enemy to the head
You can run it with basically all vet keystones and it’ll work well
Combat shotgun, usually either serious range spec or melee hybrid playstyle, it’s a pretty mid tier weapon
It’s mid because it’s not a reliable 1 tap on important enemies however it does have good stagger which helps somewhat
Veteran is a hybrid combat class, you’re looking at usually 5:5 melee/ranged combat split and this can shift into smth like 7:3 if you’re using guns that have less ammo (and can’t afford to shoot at everything)
or like 9:1 in the other way on heavy ranged spec with las weapons
If you wanted a proper ranged focus class, psyker and hvs do it better
That is super dependent on teammates’ ability to frontline and not self sufficient
look if they can't live with born leader and 10 stacks of CK juicing them
it was already doomed
No u can just be hybrid and mog everything regardless of what ur team is doing
Thankyou for your time. You're lot more willing to help than most communities i'm used to. I'll be back.
Also check the veteran build template in the guide, it’s a good starting point to make ur own build from there
i just wanna explore the game on my own ;-;
i already have a build i like
also i just read the entry on the shotgun and it gives no advice on how to use it at all.
Shoot things in the face
here we go again...
Yea tell me about it.
As much as you my fellow veteran mains dunk on us ex vets and stealth vets we do have our uses
Exe is basically The Good One now
Minimum pellet count
You want to aim down sights and shoot heads
You can do that with every gun
It matters more specifically for combat shotguns
whatever you say...
"Help me but only the advice I want"
you can build combat shotguns broadly speaking two ways
- single target damage
- multitarget damage
for single target damage, you typically use full bore no respite
for multitarget damage, you need to get a bunch of crit in your talent tree
and then take manstopper + firefrenzy/fullbore/no respite
that being said
either way CS benefits very heavily from hitting weakspots and critting
so going heavy on crit, for example through weapon specialist, is always a good idea
oh and accataran CS is shit
only use zarona or agri CS
then why is it there?
because fatshart made it a while back
and doesn't know how to balance the game
and it got nerfed to shit
and then only buffed slightly
when zarona/agri got massive buffs
example of how to build agri
though this one is a slightly meme build lol
why do you keep saying "build"?
that's just the term for the talents and configuration of the gun you take
Yeah of your charecter... not your gun, right?
Both actually
but the configurations of guns are randomly generated
U can change perks and blessings on ur weapons
Only the stat roll is fully RNG where u cope with it by buying the weapon until u get an ideal max stat distribution
this is exhausting...
I’m not sure how new you’re to the game exactly but this is pretty basic stuff
im like level 25
all i wanted to know why those guns felt suboptimal when i was using them, and how to use them properly. And i havent really absorbed an answer and im worn out from all this.
What im hearing so far is that this game with dozens of different choices and customization actually has very few correct answers, for some reason

tbf
@warm cove mate i suggest you lesve this server and experiment on your own hand
I did give you answers
And yes the game gives a lot of options most of which aren’t good
And then comeback after your second character hits 30
second??
lol nah it’s fine
honestly thats the most comforting suggestion ive heard so far
im sorry but i didnt understand any of them.
Idk what u mean by not getting answers when I told u how they’re used, what they’re made to shoot at, and gave u ideal perks/blessings for them
Idk what else is missing
You've already given him the spoonful you don't need to chew it for him too
tbh
you're not even 30 yet
just do whatever
have fun
don't sweat the meta
you can worry about the meta after you've played the game more
i guess whats missing is how what youre telling me would be different for any other gun
walk up/stand back and shoot in head, yes
that is how you use every gun
He’s saying those 2 guns underperform for him vs Vraks mk5 inf auto and he wants to play them better
oh well i guess that's just a vraks 5 moment
Ah yes. Good ol funneling to most boring weapon in the game for the sake of dps
Are you building those weapons according to their strengths or are you throwing blind comparisons here
A properly kitted vig auto 3 plays noticeably different from Vraks 5 inf auto
That just looks insane. He's letting himself get hit by an enemy while shooting one thats far away? and runs past/lets a bunch of enemies run past instead of killing them? why would you do that?
And he's spouting a bunch of code that i am not in the vicinity of understanding. That's been my experience for most of this.
Whatever, right?
guess im just a big fucken idiot and it sucks to be me.
Yea vet can just be played like that
Idk what your problem is here
You’re throwing blind comparisons without understanding what diff weapons are good at
And you’re so negative towards advice that’s trying to help
What he is talking about is not related to darktide, at all
Sounds like a story about dnd if i had to guess
Nailed it
The lament of the reckless attack barbarian flubbing his advantage rolls, i feel his pain
"Why would someone prioritise more dangerous targets?"
Well no the rager was more dangerous in that specific scenario I was just playing on autopilot
Most other cases you’re not supposed to prioritize other enemies when ragers are doing combos on u
You can afford not to give a fuck when you've got like 5 stacks confirmed kill plus exe plus out for blood
OfB not needed with stance being a thing
I think i take it anyway for consistency
Though I haven't been playing much so no idea
dnd sucks!
Dnd specifically or ttrpgs
yeah i actually don't like ttrpgs in general lol
Oh so I'm allowed to have beef now
ik people like dt movement more than vt but my god it looks so goofy sometimes
i think it's mostly the fov
assisting a smite psyker -1000 social credit
TRUE
Currently wondering if I should just change from mmf to ws on my ilas
If he’s not gonna get the kills I might as well
These are all old clips tho
I have combat feed turned off now
Cuz some kills will just magically not show up in the killfeed
Feels bad
In ~3hrs we’ll find out if Cadian armor releases
LALALALALAL I CAN'T HEAR YOU
I think it’s always explosive kills
It’s esp noticeable with hvs’s rocket
Half the rocket kills just won’t show up
which helbore variant is best?
All 3 are ok depends on preference
yeah thas what each mark distinguishes
honestly my favorite gun as vet is the stub revolver
it feels so good to one shot basically everything on havoc
oh, mods?
god this is getting bad
oh, there we go
He spoke like a man unjerked by James Workshop
He's craving it
Skitarius mod is amazing with power sword 

Any other Skitarius users? How you prefer to do the combos? Held or trigger?
Owned himself
Literal own goal
this is a really dumb question but do born leader and infiltrate pair well together?
James workshop and John warhammer will both come to shake dicks with you
Le pins, but off the top of my head u take surgical and the one that increases crit chance when you hit weakspots
Well that was an ordeal
geez
A calamity, even
@narrow frost Hi Ainz, I'm trying to find that Vigilant sniper Vet build you posted earlier but I can't see it in search or on GamesLantern list
Wee bit hectic
A slightly bit worrying, if you may
what. why is it visored
i wouldn't even complain if it wasn't poorly clipping through the helmet
this is unmodded
there is glass clipping out of it on both sides. how do you even do this by accident
But we have no patch notes explaining
I mean
Veteran cosmetic clipping isn't a new thing
this clipping is
i just hopped on today to see what dogshit cosmetics i wont buy only to find out they've randomly shoved a glass 3d model into this helmet
But if you ask me
Probably some internal name cosmetic change that also affected this helmet specifically
But I have nothing to back this theory up

DRG update today
also snowrunner update
im interested in trying bolter and falchion together
where did the collateral stat go on guns
right there
Not every gun has a collat stat
And I'm not even going to double check to see if my statement is correct

no, you are right
where did the path.exe guide go? 😭
the big darktide guide says i need 60% collateral on my hellbore
but it doesn't have the stat only stopping power
Are you sure you're reading that right?
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/a052a1e0-39e0-49f2-8cbd-9b4fda72a1dd/brawler-commissar
I want to use these weapons, could someone evaluate the talents
Also no reciprocity but you have exploit weakness
what about the one above
Pretty good
ok sick
no skirmisher
@past peak 51 minutes.. not bad.
See pinned
slayer build is great
oh I see now
I was confused cause the previous one I read was a google doc or something, its a steam guide now?
Yup
hey where's the guy who's cracked with helbore and executioner
huh
does the crit chance only apply to the first round
or the entire burst
No iron will 😔
Trash 🗑️
im using the slayer build I posted
from the pins
its going pretty well so far, I tend to keep having to go long range sniping with my bolter cause no one else will handle them though
but the quickswap midrange and closerange bolter is really fun
Slayer build?
Which has iron will
It's the DN build one
weapon idea
Plasma Pistol
weaker Plasma Gun, but it doesn't blow up when overcharged (Just goes on a very literal cooldown) and maybe better ammo economy
nobody charges up the plasma gun so that's not really much
eh fair
about to try my hand at on overwatch see how it goes, only one try right now
maybe make it another mark or a cosmetic
would at least be cool for Commissar style stuff to have a Plasma Pistol
I mean it does feel really good to hit a trapper square in the chest with a fully charged shot tho
Waste of ammo varlet
Unless a rager just eats the shot like it was nothing
But you still got to shoot it so point stands
Besides your teammates dont need ammo
And if they did they'd beat me to it
Truly guardsman cannon fodder behavior
Well if all the ranged and specialist enemies are dead why does the zealot or pysker need ammo?
Have 'em use some of that zeal in cqc
And I just dont share ammo with witches
You get mind powers you dont need bullets
And ogryn is just ogryn
Yeah I mean let’s ignore the fact that you’re needlessly expending holy munitions and taking ammo that other members of your team would put to better use
And charging shots is just a waste of time
Not just ammo 
Nah
Needlessly? Are you trying to insists that using our guns to kill people with guns is a waste?
And I promise mate
They are certainly NOT putting that ammo to better use than i am
If you need ammo to deal with chaff hordes as pretty much any class that's a problem
Besides I don't even run the plasma gun anymore
Its kinda mid tbh
Infantry lasgun stays winning 💪💪💪💪
Actually, better yet, run down that plasma gunner and trapper line with a chainsword
chainsword into plasma gunners having to deal with carapace heads 💀
I mean its heavy attack is pretty good when you rev it up and swing it
Actually its amazing honestly
yea and get quadruple penetrated by the other ranged enemies
But the point was using a gun to kill people with guns is the better method
using a rev attack to kill basic elite gunners 💀
I mean its badass
not always
Not really
Just saying shooting the people shooting you is usually a good idea
Prob dies as often as real guardsmen too 
I mean you cant be doing any better
I do
Whats that bitch gonna do try to kick me
If you think its even possible to really waste plasma gun ammo
While they pick off your whole team in the back?
Because the ranged character is running at a sniper with a knife?
What diff are you in man
Usually the ones where they dont miss
Okay cause normally people know how to dodge them when you get into higher diffs
u can shoot ranged enemies just usually not all of them
esp if u frontline or run ahead lol
I remember last night I had a zealot not wanting to backup for close spawn
And he told me he was pinned down by 2 snipers
H40 btw
It was a 10 meter stretch perpendicular
Was really funny
And that is absolutely not true at all either
A dodge tutorial for each event would be cool in the meat grinder
Whatever you say man
martyr zealot pretty fun in the event ngl
I think you are grossly overestimating the capability of most of this games player base
just turn brain off and autopilot
Real
Chorus/book/Icon
But I want to wait for a cosmetic to come to them that I like
Whats the hook for the chorus?
Whatever you call it, people will know
THE LIGHT
Me playing GooDrinkerGasHuff zealot since the tree rework
Wasn't a huge fan
Arbites just felt to easy
And I just cant focus on the game whenever an ogryn talks
Because its the funniest shit ever every time
My exact point
Id argue at least 20-30% of this games playerbase probably doesnt even know how to do a data interrogator tbh
Yeah it's the fatshark formula
Hide/lie about information
Let the players figure it out by themselves
Lore accurate because they expect us to die anyway
Survival of the fittest and all that
brainrot gameplay
Prime example that psyker doesnt need ammo
When you can harness the power of hell itself im gonna be a bit begrudging to handover the ammo
Now a gun psyker tho
Never want one
Ever
But in the 1/1000000000 chance I find a psyker that uses a gun it is fun to watch them try to be normal
Karkin witches
seems like ur mindset is pretty restricted
I just assumed larp
At least ur honest
Rare
Its larp and ive had more poxbursters and barrels almost kill me due to a psyker not watching their fire than any other class
Rule #1, don't trust your teammates
Zealots a close second though
I pop every barrel before I walk forwards and I run away from bursters if I'm near my team
But it's not the class
It's the players
I try to push the busters into crowds or ogryn enemies but usually someone sees them coming towards me and goes
SHOOT IT
SHOOT IT NOW
Which is just never fun
Yeah, but I cant be bigoted towards actual people over a game
Despite the fact that I think bigotry against stupid people is completely justified
Im not an actual one
And if your a gun pysker you're probably gonna be stepping on my territory as the ranged class
And now that im just not okay with
Vet isn't the ranged class though
It's not like the class you're playing as can't also develop itself to be a shooter.
That's psyker and scum
It's just game facts, vet has some of the highest melee damage buffs and doesn't have unlimited ammo. Psyker and scum do
Nah, psyker can stay on cc
Exec stance
Psyker also has higher finesse
Marksmans focus
And what about those?
Nobody is restricted to that perception.
I find it interesting what new players think
They're literally for ranged? Specially because vet is meant to be the ranged class?
NEW PLAYERS?
Yeah
Weird my caps locked right there
I’ll be quite disturbed if you’re not a new player…
All good
Excuse me mate?
Dogmatic opportunism.
You deadass said you can waste plasma gun ammo
You can
And when I take both "ranged" abilities and keystone I do maybe 1/3 of the damage I'd do with melee
That is the most incorrect take ive ever seen
You have to melee
Not possible given all your takes here lol
Vet doesn't have infinite ammo
But it also highlights every single ranged, elite and specialist
And the melee buffs are way higher then ranged
Doesn't need it
Maybe you're just ass?
They're mostly getting at the scope of what other classes have for ranged capabilities rather than the rest of the reality. Veteran absolutely can steer itself towards ranged gameplay, but psyker and scum can do it to a much more dynamic degree.
I’m not the one using charged shots on a trapper brother
"Oh no! Someone doing something fun???!??!?!?!?!"
Also it has the single best ammo economy maybe in any game ever
Well now the segueway has already happened so np.
Helbore?
No the plasma gun
Larping so hard he’s gone full ogryn
Vet can be built into having a lot of ranged buffs, yes. But is limiting himself by removing their highest damage increase which are melee based. Then you compare psyker and scum which scale ranged and melee without needing to have a different build. Vet breaks down into being the hybrid class, but if ranged is what you find fun. Go for it, I love both melee and ranged vet
Vet hasn’t been the ranged class for like 2yrs
Explain to me how you even run out of ammo with a plasma gun
Higher difficulties spawn more enemies
anyone who thinks plasma has good ammo economy needs a brain transplant
Game is balanced around damnation/auric
Yeah yall doing something wrong then
Like way wrong
Literally never have had an issue with plasma ammo in all the auric and damnations ive ran
While still disintegrating everything infront of my team
It's not like the person is saying anything wrong in that veteran literally has ranged gameplay baked in to its design. Wrong in terms of the sheer ceiling of what ranged class play looks like especially now but not at all wrong in noting where the class actually juices ranged. Idk understand the point of denying that just because the clout coherency is high.
He can also be built into melee
But literally
He has an entire skill tree
That makes him surpass every other character at range
Vet’s talent tree is made for hybrid combat
Or branch ig
Ummm
Yeah he can be a hybrid
Have you played psyker?
If you cant keep up with scum or psyker with exec stance its time to re evaluate a lot tbh
Im starting to think you guys might be the vets im getting on my team tbh
Nothing commendable is really happening but np.
Probably the latter 
I don't mind debating with people, I'm just keeping busy
It's simple really
You have 135 ammo loaded and 135 in the reserve, you essentially have only 2 mags
Or coils
The glaze of the day was so clean lol.
And if you cant deal with the threats that would require a plasma gun with that ammo its time to stop using ut
Do you just not pick up ammo during the mission?
Vet just fundamentally is a hybrid class

He can be
Or you can speck into specific things
Like a sensible person
Ranged branch on vet is not as self sufficient as psyker/hvs because it’s much more oriented in backline sniping and you pretty much always need a good frontliner to enable u to do that
Whereas psyker and hvs ranged don’t need frontliner and just auto mog everything
If I can dodge through hordes in exec stance with an infantry lasgun and still keeping my stance active
You can too mate
You got this
And on top of that
No it isnt
You can VERY reliably snipe from the Frontlines
And cut down the ranged enemies before the horde gets to you in just about 90% of the missions
Some less so
But once again
Its a TEAM game
You're meant to work
TOGETHER
It’s only rly a team game in havoc
Ye
Its unprecedented
With how the audio and slot system works playing right next to each other actually gets you killed alot
Like your burster example a bit ago
Not what I said mate
Not at all actually
working together doesnt mean everyone is shoulder to shoulder like a riot squad
It means utilizing different skillsets to achieve the best outcome
Fair enough I did assume because that is a common misconception
And i still dont see how psyker outclasses an even moderate vet with exec stance
