zealot-class

[sturdy cypress]

Thammer's definitely better for single target damage, whereas evis is better for horde clear

Though both aren't bad in the other's role either

I prefer evis simply because 90% of enemies in Darktide are fodder

[exotic portal]

Just run the punisment talent in your build

[sturdy cypress]

Good for CC, not necessarily killing them outright

[carmine hare]

Punisment

[sturdy cypress]

But like I said, hammer's perfectly serviceable for hordeclear

[exotic portal]

staggers all enemies at damn aurics, ragers, maulers, all in the area cleave

[mystic ether]

genuinely curious about these axes. anyone actually use these?

not immediately interested just wondering what might be worth burning

[sturdy cypress]

afaik rashad axe is the best, but i don't typically run axes

I like my evis on zealot and shovel/dclaw on vet

[carmine hare]

I see, thats on the bottom somewhere
Punisment

[mystic ether]

knives, evis and chax when i get a nice one. It depends on what I'm doing with veteran but my safe picks are limited to my current psword. got lucky with power cycler and got bm3 so /shrug. why not

[exotic portal]

Kinda better than running cleave blessings

[mystic ether]

I'd like a nice shovel...

[north sedge]

Don't need punishment for hammer

[exotic portal]

thammer has it's cleave before it's useless

[north sedge]

I do not understand what you just said

[exotic portal]

flat impact surface, a sword example, slides.

[north sedge]

Punishment is nice for staggering ragers out of combo and nurgle blessings, it's fine but not super necessary

[blissful sinew]

I'm making this build

[north sedge]

🤔

[sharp zodiac]

Ah, I remember using that build

Surprised he's using a martyr build and not taking bleed for the emperor

Shield of contempt but having to go through the emperor's bullet but no twbs, alright

[ripe quest]

I was expecting a dogshit video like normal but that's pretty textbook for once.

[ember yew]

if you look at the build

the build is ok

i didnt check his ranged weapon though

[sharp zodiac]

It's a kantreal shotgun

[ripe quest]

Only goofy thing is the +3 stamina

[sharp zodiac]

Yeah

[royal vortex]

ur a goofy thing

[sharp zodiac]

And my only wounds curios unfortunately have that because I never bothered getting new ones

Till no

Now

[ember yew]

so he's gonna leave all those

150 gunners from 360 angle to pugsrandoms

welp

i dont want to do that

[ripe quest]

Kant and Thammer is a solid combo.

[ember yew]

i just ran 3 auric games where randoms refused to shoot any gunners

elites included

shooting that with shotgun across big map/open space would be a pain

[cedar maple]

best knife mark?

[ripe quest]

For specials it's not too bad since the fire round will kill them quickly. On bigger maps it'll have some issues with the primary shot.

[ripe quest]

Preference. Both are single target weapons, the Mk VI is slightly better at crowds and Mk III has easier access to the single target moves.

[sharp zodiac]

And be sure to add flesh tearer lacerate and Crit chance and damage to the knife

(jk please don't for the love of god)

[weary glacier]

why do redditors consistently have such terrible opinions

[placid lily]

https://youtu.be/lcGWuZBNy-I?si=PrIbHLj5kbtDex4i

[weary glacier]

I am a certified columnus enjoyer but if these malice-dwelling redditors can’t overcharge their plasmaguns to murder a poxwalker then it’s not worth using to them

[ornate bone]

I have no idea, it's like most people there just collectively decided to show off their pride in not playing the game

I have been playing autoguns the past two or so days and their finesse levels are stupid

If you are semi-decent at hitting the head, everything dies

[weary glacier]

tbf it makes it very easy to estimate skill levels based on reddit opinions

every iag is good it’s just about feel

I run a columnus on two different classes

[ornate bone]

I decided to go for the graia because it has like 20 more bullets than agri, but doesn't have a fire rate too big

Best decision of my life

[weary glacier]

understandable

[ornate bone]

Shit still hits hard on bursts and I got good sustain on the magazine

[weary glacier]

if I was taking longshot I’d spec into the agrapinaa but I really like the brrrt on the columnus

[north sedge]

Why go to reddit when i can just witness bleed knfe weirdos here

[weary glacier]

literally zealot chat 24/7

you can go there rn and probably find them talking about it

wait this isnt veteran chat

I’m talking to knife users rn?

[exotic portal]

on the tip

[north sedge]

I am not, just make memes about it

[tawny tangle]

the new knife with bleed is probably pretty good no?

[exotic portal]

nop

[ornate bone]

Better to just uh

Deal damage

[ornate bone]

Specially since infested take fuck-all damage from bleed

[exotic portal]

cleaves way better than old one with light attacks

[placid lily]

What happened to the cool people of zealot chat

Maybe they’re out on holiday

[weary glacier]

why EVER try and bleed things to death when you can have something as basic as an a axe w uncanny strike and do better

the only thing bleed stacks are for is giving me 30% crit

[tawny tangle]

cause i wanna use the knife and actually clear hoards somewhat reasonably

[weary glacier]

flamer

[tawny tangle]

a man can dream

[exotic portal]

run the new one with haymaker, won't really need to dodge in the senter of a horde

[weary glacier]

in fact I will build a flamer + axe build tonight just for you and tell you how it goes

[tawny tangle]

flamer + anything is good

[north sedge]

Bleed knife ain't clearing hordes very much

[tawny tangle]

how does haymaker work exactyl btw, is it chance that anything hit by that swing will die or chance for that swing to kill everything it hits

[exotic portal]

get like 4% chance of instakill humansized enemies, stacking 5 times? up to 20%?

like maulers, ragers

gunners

[tawny tangle]

yes but is it chance in swing or chance on hit

[exotic portal]

hit

[weary glacier]

why not use a weapon w a 100% chance to kill something though

in fact with a 100% chance to kill MULTIPLE things

[tawny tangle]

cause i want to use other things ya goober

[carmine hare]

?

[tawny tangle]

not as good then 😭

[exotic portal]

lmfao

[royal vortex]

x% chance rolled per enemy in the swing

so the first one

[exotic portal]

prob not, dangerouse to run with knives

Why is mobility so low

[wooden river]

because brunt

[median steeple]

epic brunt fail

[wooden river]

it doesn't matter much anyway, you still get 5 dodges with that mobility

[north sedge]

Mobility is a dump

[visual stream]

Mobility never dump stat

Never

[north sedge]

Yes it is

Always

On every weapon

[visual stream]

Never

[wooden river]

you get slightly lower dodge distance and sprint speed with 49% mobility compared to anything higher than that

and you still get 5 dodges regardless

so it's a dump stat

[visual stream]

...except for knoife

You need to get away from your team and in there as fast as possible

[north sedge]

[visual stream]

Therefore mobility never dump stat

[wooden river]

that's what Chastise is for 🙂

[olive raven]

It’s bait

its the one that shoots fire

good at long range?

[north sedge]

Lawbringer was brought up to speed when they buffed all the shotguns

[median steeple]

all the shotguns are pretty decent at range

[median steeple]

ah I see

[wooden river]

Kant has decent long range with the ADS fire + good hallway horde clear with the fire shells

[cedar maple]

best automatic weapon rn?

[wooden river]

If you ADS and load a fire shell with special fire, you'll skip the pump animation

[surreal marlin]

lawbringer goood?

the gall they had to add the crusader outfit and not include to the sick ass enclosed helmet is absurd

[keen thorn]

I'm looking to start doing Damnation runs and I was wondering if stealth knife zealot works well at that difficulty, or if I should change to relic or chastise.

[royal vortex]

stealth works well, knife is... eh. it's a middling weapon with a high skill floor

a rashad/heavy sword (or like any of the chain weapons depending on what you like) will probably give you a better performance

[stray heath]

How do you get img perms?

[stray summit]

Get convicted

[last plover]

someone said knife ?

[ornate bone]

the blade that we use for combat

[keen thorn]

I have a pretty good heavy sword on my crit build I'll try it out with stealth and see how it runs

best map for just a flesh wound penance?

[blissful sinew]

if i can remember where i just did it by looking at scoreboard i'll mention

anyway what blessings go on a NON BLEED knife

Guys, i wanna make a build with Chainaxe. I have 2 options. Can u tell me what you'd pick.

I'd say the blue one cuz i think Defences are the lesser important stat

[north sedge]

Both good bases, though you'd want to upgrade that thrust, perks on both would have to change

[tidal spoke]

Yeah i know 🙂

Just wanna know bout the base stats

well fuck xD

[north sedge]

Blue one is a bit better but it's not like worlds apart

[tidal spoke]

haha, its so annoying sometimes with the max of 2 changes to a weapon

[north sedge]

Yea

[tidal spoke]

well, double fuck :3

[blissful sinew]

crafting rework please

[tidal spoke]

I dont even know if i got the better Chainaxe :3

[north sedge]

Both work

I prefer 4 for general use, use xii when i do twins fight

If I'm using a chaxe anyway

[tidal spoke]

Haha yeah, normally i use 2 versions of knife bleed builds, one with stealth. But i wanted to try something else for fun

[tidal spoke]

If you use chainaxe, what other weapon do you use ?

Is there an alternative to Thrust for the Thunderhammers?

[north sedge]

No

[fading vale]

it's the feeling when you see a DH and you have another hammer on the team, and then you both charge the hammer, look at eachother, and bonk the DH

[gilded cairn]

Is the one blessing I can't get.

[north sedge]

Yea....hammer has too many

[royal vortex]

some weapons are super annoying to grind

[tidal spoke]

haha, not tried out a Thunderhammer build. But its def. on my list. Im kinda new to the game

[royal vortex]

thammers, force swords, etc all have bloated blessing pools with a bunch of stuff u dont want

[tidal spoke]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zn5eys2wZ5g

found this build on youtube and it looked fun

[gilded cairn]

I rolled at least 20 hammers, I got shock & awe T3 like 10 times (I still don't have T4 shock & awe if it even exist)

[brazen umbra]

its a weird feeling to be in an open competition to kill steal what would for any other weapon be a potentially run ending threat

[sharp zodiac]

Genuine question but Why would you want shock and awe

[gilded cairn]

I don't

[royal vortex]

to shock and awe the enemies

of course

[gilded cairn]

But might as well have the Tier IV if they ever fix it in the future right?

[sharp zodiac]

Guess Hadron wants you to really try it then

[sharp zodiac]

Yeah

[fading vale]

maybe they will just make shock and awe BM

[buoyant pecan]

The devs intentionally added bad blessings to fuck you and get more playtime out of you

[gilded cairn]

I tried using the flame shotgun to give me enough time to swing the weapon with the bonus, I don't even know if it is doing something.

[fading vale]

with what bonus

[gilded cairn]

The -% enemy hit mass on kill.

[tidal spoke]

got this hammer after a mission

have another one with thrust 4

i guess thats good then

[north sedge]

Only applies to the weapon it's on

[fading vale]

shock and awe is basically for buffing the cleave on a single heavy swing

[open echo]

hmmmm

[gilded cairn]

I wanted to use the flame attack against "zombies", get the fully stacked hammer and then swing.

[fading vale]

this is pretty good, first target is sad but really good otherwise

also fuck you for getting thrust 4 as a new player

[tidal spoke]

Yeah i used the other one to get Thrust 4 Blessing for future hammer build

:3

is Thrust 4 that rare ?

[royal vortex]

some of us had to suffer for it

[north sedge]

yea

[royal vortex]

i spent so much goddamn plasteel

back in the day

[north sedge]

took me forever

[fading vale]

it took me like 3 months to get thrust 4 and it was from melk, in 12 months I have NEVER ROLLED THRUST 4 FROM HADRON

[royal vortex]

in 12 months

u mean a year

[open echo]

is this useable?

[tidal spoke]

But i mostly play Knife bleed crit build on zealot and cant get lacerate or mercy killer 4

so i guess thats my karma

[open echo]

(ik tac axes are not the best currently)

[fading vale]

luckily you don't want lacerate or mercy killer

[north sedge]

hadron trying to save you

[tidal spoke]

Hmm.. the video i saw recommend it :3

[sharp zodiac]

Kill them

[proven merlin]

Anyone have thoughts on this axe?

[drifting wolf]

kill them

[fading vale]

it seems usable but the 7 is a bit buggy, would swap the perks

[open echo]

wdym by buggy?

[fading vale]

most DT YouTube videos are misinformation

[fading vale]

with attack speed some of the swings don't register

[open echo]

melk is also giving this which i need for my vet

[tidal spoke]

I watch RealAsianRobot and his builds so far were kinda good and his gameplay seems alright. So i trusted him and hes also a partner

[open echo]

oh lmao

[north sedge]

😬

[tidal spoke]

What blessings would you put on knife then ?

[sharp zodiac]

Honestly he's one of the better dt yt

Not perfect

But a lot better than the others

[fading vale]

lacerate is always a bad choice, and mercy killer is worse than the other available blessings

[open echo]

uncanny strike and precognition for me

[north sedge]

partner doesn't mean much, there's a video promoted in the launcher that gives some bad info even

[fading vale]

uncanny strike is required more or less

[sharp zodiac]

Next you can go your preferred blessing that isn't lacerate, depending on the knife

[tidal spoke]

It seemed reasonable to me cuz they work with bleed and since its a knife bleed build

[sharp zodiac]

Bleed is not very good

Especially with knife

[tidal spoke]

😦

[sharp zodiac]

You want to kill the enemies

Not tickle them

[fading vale]

then you can take precog/riposte/executor/flesh tearer(if you want to bleed)

[open echo]

can tac axes be good for crit stuff?

[sharp zodiac]

Flesh tearer is actually not shite

[fading vale]

uncanny is the best blessing to buff bleed from flesh tearer

[north sedge]

taxe works better with marty

[fading vale]

yeah taxe needs more damage to make BM work

[open echo]

ah, i see

[gilded cairn]

I hate Melk

[drowsy jackal]

also dont use vids for good build references

[gilded cairn]

Casually selling that

[proven merlin]

Looks like a good hammer as far as hammers go

[drowsy jackal]

if they have over 10k views u cannot trust that

[tidal spoke]

As a new player these videos helped me tho :3. At least i thought.

[open echo]

any suggestions for a build?

[tidal spoke]

I beat the twins with a knife stealth build i got from AsianRobot

normal lvl 5 tho xD

hardmode is too crazy for me

And i already did some lvl 5 maelstroms

well I guess its hard to get correct information

[fading vale]

a lot of videos have decent intentions, but they don't know how the game works

[north sedge]

i dont play taxe, but i don't see why a bog standard marty build wouldn't work

[gilded cairn]

I like to use the Asian Robot builds as a standard of strong builds, so what ever nonsense I'm doing I get a bar to compare it to.

[fading vale]

if you want correct information you should ask here

[visual stream]

I don't feel that it should be possible to get T2 blessings on 360+ weapons.

[visual stream]

Truth pilled

[tidal spoke]

Okay well. Let me do my build in build editor and you can maybe say if its really that shite

[buoyant pecan]

Last time I watched yt builds the guy was saying to use crit damage and weak spot damage on hsword

[obtuse solstice]

should I buy or bricked

[vocal pulsar]

I think asking here in the discord really is the best place for build help.

[buoyant pecan]

This was back when our talent trees were horizontal not vertical

[open echo]

i agree with this

[fading vale]

it's only bricked if the last upgrade isn't skullcrusher

[drowsy jackal]

videos from youtubers are typically okay but people just kinda read whats on the tin and dont know how to optimize further

[obtuse solstice]

fuck it gonna buy it then

[open echo]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9af1dff9-d6c2-48e2-846c-03571f0440b9/matyr-tac-axe so hows this?

[visual stream]

25% damage against a major archetype all the time is clearly worse than a chance to do 20% more damage some of the time

[gilded cairn]

Does % vs infested do anything on it?

[fading vale]

nah

[buoyant pecan]

Especially when it's not even added in the way he thought it was

[fading vale]

if only it were close to 20% some of the time

[north sedge]

seems fine to me

[buoyant pecan]

Like you don't do 20% more weakspot. You hit the head. Let's say you get 100 for a hit. You then add 20% of 100. So you dealt 20 more damage

[open echo]

i keep clicking the one next to scourge instead of scourge lmao

[visual stream]

How much do crits actually add to your attack? I've never fw crit outside of recently picking up a crit dclaw build

[gilded cairn]

It depends on the weapon.

[fading vale]

ok so 10% crit damage perk, most weapons it is you do 100 damage base, 140 on crit, and with the 10% perk you do 144

[visual stream]

Ah, so 10% more of the crit modifier added is how that works

[tidal spoke]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9af1e154-ac1d-4188-bab7-ad045e79ee65/my-build-7

[gilded cairn]

How much would it increase crit weakpoint damage?

[drifting wolf]

don't have a good mk XV atm so i'm wondering what the optimal single target combos for the mk II eviscerator are

[visual stream]

I already knew those were bad but never knew the math

[fading vale]

only by the crit portion, so a lower percentage

[tidal spoke]

Didnt really include the shotgun cuz i didnt build it much. used a random good shotgun without going for specific blessings

[surreal marlin]

idk what best weapon s

[stray cedar]

hmmmmm so what should I do with this:

[buoyant pecan]

Haliriously how close to the real number this is

[gilded cairn]

@fading vale so for example a laspistol against carapace +% crit damage would never exceed the +% crit damage?

[stray cedar]

thinking Maniacs aaannnnddd what second perk

[buoyant pecan]

Your better off getting more critical chance on laspistol

[fading vale]

even on a laspistol at best 10% crit damage is like 5%

[buoyant pecan]

Literally just crit more often

[gilded cairn]

Even against weakpoint crit against targets with armor?

[buoyant pecan]

Than do 5% more damage whe. You actually crit

[tidal spoke]

Lazorr could u maybe take a quick look at that build and tell me whats mostly wrong with it ?

[fading vale]

would drop EWEW and disdain for sustained

[tidal spoke]

ehm...

EWEW ? xD

[buoyant pecan]

Critical weakspots are a whole separate modifier

[fading vale]

enemies within

the top left

[buoyant pecan]

Enemies within enemies without

Or some shit

Whatever the full name is

[fading vale]

I'd also try to get second wind

maybe drop attack speed for second wind

[north sedge]

duelist

[buoyant pecan]

Like it's not the Critical modifier + the Weakspot modifier

[stray cedar]

don't think second wind is an option without dropping something important

although

it's a dagger build, so maybe don't need attack speed as much

[fading vale]

yeah

[tidal spoke]

haha i really have to look at all skills and stuff cuz i cant find it instantly wait gimme a sec

[fading vale]

duellist is also very desirable on knife

[tidal spoke]

oh found sustained

Duellist sounds reasonable cuz many dodges

[elfin steppe]

[fading vale]

also you need to change the whole knife but I think we mentioned that

[frozen glen]

stam curio

[tidal spoke]

Yeah but i still have a lot of ??? in my head cuz of the knife xD

[sharp zodiac]

Ah, my finger is bleeding, perfect

[fading vale]

oh yeah and don't use a stam curio

[tidal spoke]

Luna got hit by bleed build

[sharp zodiac]

It's ok it literally did nothing

Just a minor inconvenience

[light holly]

https://tenor.com/view/arnold-schwarzenegger-gear-up-gif-12923195

You

[tidal spoke]

It seemed to make a big difference tho with running and stuff. Isnt that good when like teammates are dead and u need to get out of situations

What other curio would you put in ?

another toughness or health

[fading vale]

toughness

[stray cedar]

oh also anyone have advice as to what to upgrade on this? I'm thinking leave the blessings alone and swap the perks

[ornate bone]

vro

[sharp zodiac]

Toughness is always great

[ornate bone]

Today I got exploded because I went to push a poxburster

And the poxburster wasn't targeting me

[mossy tulip]

Is there a database with crit chance info for weapons

[fading vale]

and for perks you want HP toughness and gunner resist, or a sniper resist is ok

[ornate bone]

So he didn't explode, didn't stagger the trapper about to fire at me, the trapper pulled me into two poxbursters and I fucking died

[sharp zodiac]

I'd swap the perks

The blessings are fine

[stray cedar]

wait where'd your flag go

[tidal spoke]

@fading vale If thats not too much to ask for. Could you give me your knife build with the build editor or a build that you would think is one of the best

[sharp zodiac]

Stop typing

[fading vale]

knife you want uncanny strike + precog/riposte/flesh tearer/executor, and for perks flak and maniac/crit chance/unyielding/cara

[stray cedar]

oh also is Haymaker worth it on the MK6 knife or is that still kind of a meme

[fading vale]

I think it's mostly a meme but semi functional

[surreal marlin]

holld to sprritn on?

Ah so close melk, but I'll get the blessing maybe

Isn't Escopette a Carbine

[fading vale]

why is Escopette hand cannon

[royal vortex]

escopette lmao

[frozen glen]

roulette de crucis

[sharp zodiac]

That's the french word for it

[frozen glen]

is the thammer in french called crucian

[fading vale]

what's the translation of Escopette

[stray cedar]

thought escopette was more like... small rifle or carbine

[royal vortex]

frog language

[sharp zodiac]

I'll check

[next trench]

carapace + maniacs for perks?

[ornate bone]

Funny because

"Escopeta" in Portuguese is "shotgun"

[next trench]

yes

[stray cedar]

I think both Portuguese and French stole the word from Italian

[surreal marlin]

yo

what are the best input settings?

[ornate bone]

We take words from the French and get rid of their meaning because we don't want to draw any attention to the country

[surreal marlin]

holld to sprint/

?

[fading vale]

you at least want uncanny strike blessing

[next trench]

wym best

thats subjective

[stray cedar]

best is what works for you, but personally I double-bind shift to both sprint and dodge

[next trench]

i use screenshot button to shoot bruh

[ornate bone]

Hold to sprint is the most responsive, but you'll want to toggle it after like 2 matches doing that crap

[frozen glen]

the only input setting commonly changed is jump to alt

[fading vale]

also the finesse on that knife is too low

[royal vortex]

u put jump on v if ur not a bitch

[frozen glen]

u put jump on v and ur still a bitch

[stray cedar]

just keep jump on space and bind both dodge and sprint to shift

[stray cedar]

you can't dodge forwards anyways

[royal vortex]

what the hell

[ornate bone]

How about both of you put jump on the 3rd floor balcony and use it

[royal vortex]

uncalled for

[frozen glen]

[fading vale]

this is a solid knife

[north sedge]

[keen thorn]

[sharp zodiac]

Ok I won't lie that got a chuckle out of me

[hallow hatch]

is it recommended to put enemy ping on left click?

[north sedge]

christ no

[royal vortex]

absolutely not

unless you want to piss off everyone you play with

[fleet zealot]

if you really can't get thrust, not even t1-t3, for thunderhammer, just go headtaker and slaught and use an ironhelm

[gilded cairn]

It is fine unless you use the veteran tag keystone.

A bit weird to use a melee weapon to ping targets at range, but FAR better than never pinging.

[median steeple]

I discovered the fucking goon squad

[gilded cairn]

Other "popular" alternative I know of is using "shift" (running key) for tagging, I am a weirdo and use Caps for tagging.

[north sedge]

just use literally anything other than left click

because i will destroy you

[hallow hatch]

whats a veteran tag keystone?

[sharp zodiac]

The goons

[sharp zodiac]

Focus target

Covers the enemy in jarate

[gilded cairn]

Is the "focus target", they get yellow.

But it has a stack mechanic, if you spam it you lose stacks.

[sharp zodiac]

Yeah

Caps at 8 and there's a subkeynode you can grab that allows you to keep a mini buff of whatever your highest stack was you applied if you kill the target

[north sedge]

yea i know what focus fire vet is

still dont fucking bind tag to left click

[still quartz]

Mine is bound to V

[gilded cairn]

I'll say try what suits you best, left click for pinging is perfectly fine. I don't like it because I need to change everytime I play veteran with "focus target", second best option should be shift.

[hallow hatch]

ok so i havent played the game in about a year idk what a focus target is either 💀

[royal vortex]

left click for pinging is absolutely not fine because the game spawns 10+ elites at a time

and the moment a left click ping jackass looks in their direction i am audibly assaulted

[still quartz]

And you'll be pinging them the whole time

[sharp zodiac]

Mark them so they take extra damage from you and team

[royal vortex]

it's very good if your intention is to be blocked

[still quartz]

Focus Target Vet is nice, feels like Witch Hunter Captain Saltzpyre

[sharp zodiac]

I prefer marksman focus

But ft is nice

[still quartz]

I like Weapons Specialist, I play Vet like I'm a Zealot

Results vary

Sometimes you ball

[sharp zodiac]

I just got into that keystone

It's fun

[still quartz]

Sometimes you get balled on

[hallow hatch]

I am still wishing for more bayonet guns.

Especially one that is shared with the Zealot.

[hallow hatch]

i can finally fix this hammer and this braced autogun.

[gilded cairn]

Can I get headshots with the Crusher weapon powered attack or is there a glitch with the meatgrinder?

[north sedge]

yea but the only reason you're doing that generally is because you wanna cc some shit at the same time, doesn't add a ton of dmg

ive got a code im not going to use because i dont play

its for yarrick

you want it?

@copper hawk

[ornate bone]

Apparently I can actually play zealot with this one little secret

Instead of dodging sideways, dodge backwards and block

Saw someone type that earlier and used it and now zealot is the easiest class in the game above ogryn lol

Getting stuck in recovery from thunderhammer or evis chomping into enemies still gets me a few times though

[gilded cairn]

Crushers and Maulers may have something to say about that.

[ornate bone]

Dodging sideways to the enemy is often the way to break their targeting

I find that dodging backwards gets me hit much more

[ornate bone]

Well duh use your head when fighting enemies

But I always side stepped when fighting hordes

Which is what was getting me hit a lot

Kinda was just against going backwards as zealot

[abstract cloud]

Backing away from the enemies of the Emperor? Sounds like heresy to me.

[ornate bone]

[copper hawk]

noh tank u

gib it 2 another glooper

[lofty blade]

i cant find anyone that plays

[fleet zealot]

Why did you touch the perks already

Aaaaaa

Knife is uncanny+ precog or executor

[vapid olive]

whats the dumpstat on knives

[fleet zealot]

So probably mercy to uncanny

[fleet zealot]

Mobility

[vapid olive]

orly

[fleet zealot]

Knife already moves faster than most weapons and has excellent dodge stats, the difference between low and high mobility is minor at best

Every other stat gives damage in some way

[hallow hatch]

I touched the perk a year ago mb 🫠

[fleet zealot]

Get a time machine /j

Idk if it is really salvageable cause crit damage is a terrible perk

So id look for a new one

But they lowered the gap between blessing tiers so executor uncanny should work for now

[fleet zealot]

You can also dump some amount of pen if you have uncanny, you will lose a very, very small amount of damage

[vapid olive]

whats the priority stat.

25% damage perks and 10% elites are just better

[vapid olive]

first target and finesee right?

[fleet zealot]

Everything else

Damage, first target is self explainable

[abstract cloud]

dumb question - but what qualifies as an elite?

[fleet zealot]

Finesse is crit damage, weakspot damage, and attack speed

[fleet zealot]

Gunners shotgunners, ogryns, ragers, and maulers

Also inb4 crit chance helps me proc scourge more A) knife has high base crit anyways and B) with all the buffs you can get 75% crit chance so 5% doesnt add much and C) the 25%/10% damage perks buff all damage to that type while active, bleed and burn included

[copper hawk]

this is an elite

[fleet zealot]

Meanwhile crit and weakspot damage do not calculate to the entire hit, only increasing the bonus damage you would get from said happenings

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrmmmmmmmmmmm

[wheat nymph]

Real

[copper hawk]

Reek reek

it rhymes with leek

[rose flower]

For being an Emperor’s gift weapon. This one kinda slaps. I like it

Usually everything I get from winning a level is dookie

[fleet zealot]

IX Hh is a bit weird for being a double tap burst

But they buffed/fixed it so it isnt dogwater anymore

[rose flower]

I like the way it handles

[fleet zealot]

I’d swap infested for maniac

[wheat nymph]

I can handle any lazgun
No matter the size :3

[fleet zealot]

And opening salvo for no respite or deadly accurate

[ornate bone]

No respite might end up being better for that one

[fleet zealot]

(Opening salvo only applies to bullet one so it is only like 9% power for your burst and it has a cooldown where you cant continuously keep firing or you wont get the buff back

[covert sonnet]

I’m new to the game and have been playing a zealot, I enjoy using the devil claw sword rn and was wondering how it measures vs other options, and what the differences between the versions are

[ornate bone]

That variant in particular has bullshit stagger

[fleet zealot]

Dclaw is good

Differences between versions are mainly just swing patterns

Mk4 is the most common but I recommend you try them all

[sly vector]

MK 9 Heavy Sword is like that weapon but bigger

[rose flower]

MK1 I would like if heavies were a little faster

[covert sonnet]

Awesome, what sort of talents should I be shooting for with the devil claw? I’m only lvl ten, but so far I’ve gone right to get bleed on crit + throwing knife and left for self rez

[fleet zealot]

Dclaw can parry

[fleet zealot]

Doesnt matter until level 30

Just experiment

[covert sonnet]

Fair enough

[proven merlin]

Does anyone have thoughts on this axe?

never used the antax before

[rose flower]

It’s alright. I like it. I prefer it on my Vet though tbh. Never tried it on Zealot actually

[fleet zealot]

decap-> brutal momentum, crit hit damage to maniac

[proven merlin]

so the first target isn't a problem?

[fleet zealot]

rashad is technically better

oh first target is a problem

but if that's your first caxe it ain't bad

[covert sonnet]

Oh yeah, I have been recommended the revolver or Boltgun for the Zealot, would these be preferred with d claw to cover some bases?

[fleet zealot]

revolver most def but feel free to experiment

right now bolter is in a bad spot

[covert sonnet]

I’m loving the revolver rn, so I just wanted to see

[fleet zealot]

poor ammo efficiency, low damage for it's class

vraks mk3 headhunter is a good rifle for anti armor as well, which is what dclaw struggles with

[proven merlin]

bolter isn't bad with chastise, for the sole purpose of mag dumping into carapace

[fleet zealot]

it is relatively to other options

[covert sonnet]

Is revolver decent against armor?

[fleet zealot]

yes very

[rigid trellis]

one of the best

[covert sonnet]

Love to hear it

[rigid trellis]

was so good at killing carapace they had to nerf it and it's still the best

[covert sonnet]

Lol

[proven merlin]

I don't think it's that far behind. You can do some animation cancelling with throwing knives, and obviously have the throwing knife for when you want to kill lesser armored elites

[sly vector]

yes

[fleet zealot]

it is
