And for that use agri shotty
Faster swap
hi grawr
Hello
It definitely needs a buff. I still like the idea of doubling base damage and halving adms as a side thing.
I mean agri isnt going to quickly kill multiple bulwarks
Bolter? Nah
On vet its solid AF
Only shotgun great for Bulwarks is Kant. Agri is very slow at it.
Agri let's you open the bulwark and throw a knife at em
@ripe quest https://docs.google.com/document/d/1SzzJKYBZyewzn_CiumRmSBfpDEt1j5XM6kz5RNP1_bg/edit#heading=h.ue5vkomjj17w
Now that I'm back home, the guide has had all listings put up. Might actually be done within the next couple days
Agri opens them for melee and knife
Or open them up for more efficient plasma shots from vet
As a DMR sure, but half the functionality of Boltgun is objectively worse due to the blessing interactions it has.
they just need separate bolters for vet and zealot
yes
i disagree
Give zealot a homemade bolter
but im not gonna bother bashing my criticism
Or a combi bolter flamer, that could be fun
Half the functionality is ass cos its not ammo efficient
I loved bolter when you could use it as a shotgun rather well
now it's just gonna kill fewer things than literally any other gun
The fullauto is just bad by design
and run out of ammo faster
More bolter variants
Duh
give us the godwyn fatshark 
DANG that's crazy it's like it needs a buff to it because half it's functionality is ass 💀
also if they deleted player suppression from the game entirely that would be great
Combi bolter/flamer when, what if our zealots want to snort promethium after unloading into a patrol
If that new variant will be good on zealot it's gonna be even better on vet lol
But yeah
More variants more gooder
There was a datamined blessing that turned the rounds into cleaving pellet ones iirc.
I think player suppression would be fine if it didn't affect throwing knives
Or if gunners couldn't still stun players
No cos the other half is solid
if we were to get any bolter variants im thinking it'd be a pistol
Thats like saying revolver needs a buff cos the pistol whip is ass
Or helbore needs a buff cos the hipfire is ass
has there ever been a player that is like, wow this random bullshit wiggling when I ADS is fun and engaging
Anything that makes cover useful is somethint I enjoy
It's been ages since I had to take cover outside of psyker...
a bolt pistol would be kinda shit seeing as in lore they only hold like 8 rounds a mag
Tbf the guns i prefer dont suffer from suppression much
So i cant comment
forget i mentioned it
how does it make cover useful?
That is the most braindead comparison I've seen, the full auto part of the Boltgun 100% is similar to the melee special attack on a ranged weapon
yes
totes
Helbore hipfire then?
Gunners loose interest after shooting at a crate for a bit and retarget
That is assuming the cover is working...
It doesn't even for min size psyker on occasion
I would never ever play like that, nobody really uses cover and half the time you get shot through it
I'll just run at them with things that don't get suppressed or melee them
That is the bigger issue
When cover works then they can increase shooter and gunner numbers heavily as well as buff shotgunners back to dangerous levels
or introduce the beta ambushes...
It shouldn't affect throwing knives
it just makes specific guns feel really terrible unless you are a vet
which is pointless
That weapon is a slow firing precision weapon. It hits hard and doesn't get a mechanics change when hipfiring, so you want the ADS for the accuracy. Boltgun has a damage dump on the hipfire, less accuracy and control for far higher DPS. The ADS is for precision. It's not a comparable weapon for this.
Bolter is... a precision weapon with an emergency mag dump
It hits as hard as precision weapons
Exactly.
That's what I'm saying
Wait, it does?
I didn't notice
Emergency mag dump
I don't see an emergency magdump on a helbore
It does that job fine
A poorly aimed mag dump still stops you from getting pasted by a single crusher
Bayo
Working as intended
Hamd cannon surg
The only benefit of something like that on a Helbore is if you lack the time to ADS or are close enough to not care about accuracy. It doesn't compare to a Boltgun's mechanic change when hipfiring.
worth putting crucian roulette on it?
The bolter's entire hipfire is for when the enemt is close enough that it that ADS isnt needed or you dont have time to ADS
Its not the primary use case of the weapon
Surgical works better for the OG revolver's kit.
Otherwise the ADS is pointless
Suegical is much better
CR kinda works but it's just not fun. Revolver really likes the guaranteed crit.
i have both stored tbh
Crucian works well with newvolver
so surgical and hand cannon?
Or gloryhunter
lol i forgot how good the HS6 is at killing ragers
i have glory hunter stored i think
I like toughness, especially when there's gunner conga line
Tho it require a melee that can deal with carapace
Head in clouds, truly
Or just busy eating rashuns in the comfy confines of the scruffy vest
It feels like you're missing my point, I'm not gonna continue a discussion that you're not willing to listen to. 
How are you going to eat your Rashuns?
BOLTER HIP FIRE IS AN INTENTIONAL ANNOYANCE TO NEGATIVELY REWARD PRIMARILY AIMING DOWN THE SIGHT
TO MAKE THE GUN FEEL HEAVY AND SLOW TO BRING TO BEAR
IT IS RETARDICULOUS
MAKE BOULDER FULL AUTO ONLY
just make the fuckin thing less accurate at the hip and stop making the gun primary fire at 5-10m and ADS sniping beyond
naw they'd break our shoulders and wrists cuz of the calibre
Worth it tho
They kinda just forced it by making it a finesse weapon while it has Surgical.
Hard to compete with that.
Aren’t they self propelled rounds after they leave the barrel
the whole thing is human sized bolters balance out the recoil of the mass reactive shell by being intentionally, silly stupid heavy
because legion issue bolters are one and a half or twice again as big
so the thing needs to be laser beam accurate at the hip, eventually, standing still
slow to shoulder
Still need crapton of powder to be reliable at short range
and then generally pretty close shot groupings with trigger discipline
it needs to fire at a delay to your movements
Just give it ripper mechanics where the ADS is a brace that is full auto and the hip fire is a single fire or burst.
so if you're swinging right and shooting the shots come after your target because of the weight of the gun being brought round
Isn’t the main part of the damage the self explosive rounds after they penetrate skin
they have to go a certain distance
as a safety to the operator
kinda like how rpgs don't arm themselves for 30 or whatever feet after being fired
Didn’t know that tidbit
that's why you can nail a smol every now and again and he just looks at you
and stabs you for six health before you end him
the round didn't go off
It is but you still need velocity for penetration
And missiles take their sweet time to accelerate
Wouldn’t most of the recoil be from launching that large of a calibre out of the barrel so technically shouldn’t it be less recoil than it is?
...what 
I can't read that
so there's 2 bits to it
generally self propelled rounds died after the gyrojet
but the bolter uses both
It wouldn’t require as much force to just eject it out of the barrel than to fire it solely from the barrel
it's a .99 caliber cuz james workshop has never seen a real gun in his life
the round itself has powder, that's what you see coming out the barrel
.75 i think
but that's to throw the mass reactive shell far enough it ignites itself
And .998 
and also the detonation arms the mass reactive bit
That’s what I’m saying
It shouldn’t have as much recoil since that’s the case
it's a self propelled 40mm grenade with a .50 caliber powder charge behind it
cuz the bullets are so heavy the powder needed to achieve the same thing would rip the gun apart
Do we know the equivalent powder charge that are actually in them

also, some guy in Northumbrian Cuckinton-on-Shite county, england, wrote the schematics for the bolter almost fifty years ago
I mean in terms of technicalities, GW stuff is mostly hillarious
yeah it's best to play it fast and loose on this kinda stuff
But we need the schematics for the sized down rounds
It’s beautiful
ME WANTS
Weapon customization mod
so I'm uh
And extended weapon customization mod
well I don't think it's possible to even know which rounds those actually belong in
Belt fed drum cylinder magazine
they look to me like revolver or bolter rounds
It would be perfect if it was also a bolt action rifle
That looks more like a medium artillery sized round
Seriously, what's this launcher suppose to be?
It unfortunately is a headhunter Autogun, from the looks of it
Also @zinc talon I’ve found that painting the weapon pink with for the drip makes any monstrosity look at least 50% worse
that's what I mean
I have no idea what weapon that drum fits into
and I've uh, played a mission or two
How is it called in customization menu?
I don't think so, it's a 13 round wheel
12 maybe
it's the same setup as a revolver wheel
But it’s inside the mag so you should never see it
Dunno, rippers use boxes
This one is a whole new different model
lemme see if I still have that insult before god in my inventory,
I'll check
oh, it's a double round per cylinder setup
so 22-24 total
Yeah it’s bound to be ripper guns

Mmmmm

I cant even tell what the base weapon is
I WANT
Must put on purgatus staff
Surely it points the barrel where the fire will go
yep, works pretty well on the voidstrike tbh
the purge I think comes out of your left hand though
I also love just putting my melee weapon as the stick
We didnt get a single horde after the mid event at smelter, even in the finale 
thwack
this has an actively unsettling aura
Magical
I have a laspistol with invisible mags
Same
I think its a bug in the mod
Yeah it happens when you change the receiver
Yes
oh the dimentions squished it down
I almost killed as many ranged elites as trash mobs
Was it the gunner modifier
stubber rounds
Yah
That’s why
What, it just removes the hordes?
It prioitizes ranged enemies
they're clipped into the magazines, can't get a calibre just spinning the gun
Measure based off the barrel exit
Compared to ogryn standing next to puny
Why
kinda cool honestly
Is it just me or does it look like a buffer stubby .50 cal
kinda reminiscent of the ares shrike
only its spitting spent shell casings into your face
I mean your already getting plastered in blood and gore
What’s a few casings?
more like its an engineering oversight that could be easily fixed
Meh
is there an optimal attack pattern for XV evis
is that the new one?
spam
for hordes atleast
spam lights and for heavier armoured opponents heavy spam
For single I just prefer special heavy
do you special for maulers
or is heavy spam enough
in mixed hordes focus the heavy targets
For hordes with bigger threats isn’t it more optimal to do special lights?
idfk
wtf is that? CoD Vanguard?
lol like hearing new dialogue, my zealot just told some psyker not to mention some saint again, as her name should burn your lips
Spam light for many enemies in your face at once, except when a big elite is involved (try to kill the big elite first-most).
Special heavy Rev attack for big boys. Regular heavy for small elites or certain singular, non-elite enemies (but 2x light on their head might be just as good). Try to avoid Heavy 2, it’s painfully slow to chain from Heavy 1
I heard dialogue asking for an assassin
And special heavy revs for monsters as well, ideally their faces
5th class confirmed
quick Q: for crit build zealot, what combination of curios will be best? 2HP+1TG or something different? or its just basically personal preference?
thanks
There’s also dialogue asking for the whatever the tiny sniper guys are
It’s almost always a preference IMO
ah yes, darktide with an eversor assassin
I play 3x toughness for instance
ive heard dialogue for ratling snipers for a while
Because I take big hits rarely enough that I would rather avoid taking chip damage altogether
also the zealots eyepatch is made from vermin hide
so thats probably where they've all gone
If your playing crit zealot isn’t toughness almost always better especially with the one +50% toughness damage reduction on crit
Well, many things that Zealot has become better with more Toughness
i grab both that and second wind
🍖
what curios do you want for martyrdom?
And the TDR on Crit is decent, but Second Wind and toughness from Fury also become much more relevant
2x or 3x wounds
skip to maybe :30 if you're impatient, had to get my bearings and wiggle the controls just right to spin the magazine, with the carousel open, while scrolling the list
I prefer the 7.5% on heavy attack and I also take the extra toughness on kill
but that's every round you can see
3 wounds
Maybe 2 wounds 1 tough
I saw some players with 2x wounds, but I personally prefer 3
bolter rounds are not stamped, because fucking of course
Either way goes, I’d rather take toughness, still
k, ty
absolutely disgusted that no ones made a stormbolter skin for a brautogun or something
if i use chainsword, then that one is ignored (7.5)
but that one is really op with HS
and usable with hammer
The bolter rounds look like some sort of disposable brass wads that hold the initial charge and then moves out of the way for the rocket
I haven’t paid any attention but does the bolter eject anything to the side
Saw my first level 999 zealot today
I’ve seen someone at I believe lvl 1763
Holy shit
Some people
uh.
WOW
day1 playur
shooting the bolter
so far max one i saw is 1400 Ogryn and 1282 veteran
I don’t pay attention to that while firing I focus on heretics being split in half
I'm a day 1 playur and my most played character has like 400
I’ve got around the 1200 hours and my highest class is vet at around 400
Yeah I’m day 1 too
Vet?
Jesus christ I had no idea people were that high
Curios for everything outside of certain exceptions such as Deadshot Vet, some psyker builds and martyrdom builds are as follows:
2x Tough/1x HP or 3x Tough
Perks - Gunner Res/Tough/Your pick
Psucker
Oh
For certain psyker or dead shot vet, one stamina curios is acceptable
Also is it just me or is psyker the most boring class to play
For martyrdom, 3x wound is the usual
It’s all personal opinion in that regard
You actually use scopes?
Because for me they are kinda bugged, recoil and spread is not working properly on full auto on agri infauto
Everything is dandy in psykhanium
No.
If your doing martyrdom wouldn’t it be 1 wound 1 hp 1 toughness
No
Wounds are what give martyrdom power
Or is it 2 wound 1 toughness
And you’d want toughness as you already have a baseline HP
This is acceptable but for most I highly recommend 3x wound
^that is not the best except maybe for farming
Yeah
I would take probably 1 corruption resistance over 1 of the gunner resistance
It’s not really worth it, especially on Martyrdom
Cor res is only useful against bonbon
No normal corruption
If you got some reason do grims, be my guest
But corruption isn’t that big an issue if you skills are there
There’s 2 versions 1 normal 1 grim
And actually push the bursters 💀
thats even more disgusting
should just combine them
It's like how we have Bomber resist and... Tox Flamer resist
I push them but the amount of times I have people mess it up or shove it into me
if it were generic fire resist, it'd be worth running
Should just be fire resist imo
I really wouldn’t run corruption resistance as it won’t be that big an issue
its just bloated too much
I mean technically tox flamers are well “toxic”
Mutant resist is also dumb
But it’s still horrendous
Also if you are running the beacon of purity corruption resistance is useless
It's odd how they don't cause corruption with their flames, either
By design, there’s been defensive properties prepared for each special enemy type IIRC
Grim res is uselessy on marty anyway, because your health will be lower than corruption meter most of the time 
Maybe except the trapper?
Oh god imagine 💀
But not all of them are in use
thx bae
Imagine pre-fix fire giving corruption too 💀
Say, there’s no perk for bursters, but curio source code does mention a property like that
Holy fuck that would be amazing
For the most part, yeah. With some corruption res, you can prevent one wound from being filled up completely if a pox burster blows up on you point-blank if you're running full Martyr
but that is so so niche lol
Burster resist would be on all of my non-ogryn characters
100%
they're probably the worst special right now
question
Never bunch up super tight 💀
Doesn’t normal corruption resist counter burster corruption
It does
I’d assume it would
does gunner resist affect shotgunners or just tratatata guys
there's an argument for it on psyker/vet
Tratatata
Tratata only. Rippers included.

Also does anyone else hate shotgunners with a passion
where my
Eh there’s an argument for it as the 3rd perk, but I would never sacrifice Gunner res for it
since a single burster will fill up roughly 1/4 of your health bar as those two classes, before any damage resist and with 200hp
Idk what curios you running on those 💀
Cuz it’ll only take an eighth of mine
On psyker
yeah the two moddable slots are already taken by +gunner and +toughness/hp/sniper res anyway
Can’t you just slide to avoid sniper
no way you're only taking an eighth corruption from a point-blank burster lol
Realistically the best curios perks to lock in are Tough and Gunner res, the third perk is a whatever
Yes but it’s a “oh shit can’t dodge cuz bulwarks” perk
People fixate on sniper resistance, even if it is useful for psyker/vet
Cuz if you build it right, a sniper shot won’t break a full wound
+20% more plasteel on curios when
it's a nice safety net for a fairly uncommon scenario (getting plugged by a sniper)
I mean it def ain’t 1/4 for me
id swap that in like 3 secs
I'd be more than willing to sacrifice perk slot for bursters until fatshits learn to fucking code their audio
It might be more like 1/5 or so; it depends on how much toughness you have at the time and whatever damage resistance you have up
it's quite a bit though
Eh can’t remember the exact number for my psyker build but like
My zealot gets knocked to roughly 180-200? HP
I run 1 hp/2 toughness on psyker and vet
When I have 212 tough and 231 HP
without damage reduction outside passive nodes
If good balance is up it’s a bit better
good balance is underrated
or at least, people don't talk about it that often
when it's realistically up almost the entire time during a horde
It’s usually point tax, I take it over duelist usually
And usually cuz I have second wind
So the synergy is insane
15% toughness and 1/4 DR on dodge is wildly good
it's very nice
it’s great proccing good balance right before a mutie grabs me so I take a total of two HP damage
We need the capability to go up the talent tree on connected nodes
Balance works on toughness, right?
Player power would be insane 💀
It’s general damage reduction
Good Balance works on health and toughness
What? Why?
It would mostly be used to avoid certain point taxes
I’m in the firm opinion that
Using second wind/good balance
Makes you a better player
As it allows you to see when dodges are properly done
Also psyker tree
I mean there isn’t much of a case for it on zealots tree
Yeah
You’d have the same point taxes
But other trees yes
I'm honestly having a hard time deciding between duelist and balance
What weapon
Depends on which weapon you're using
Mk 15 evi
Also I’ve been loving the high attack version of the heavy sword recently
But from memory is isn’t great
the what
The tan one
That
15 is rather good, imo
I wondered how it would work on bosses
With 4 crits in a row
Doesn’t help 💀
Isn’t it the the mark 9 or something
Okay mark 9
Tbh HS6 is better
better elite TTK in exchange for horde clear taking two more swings
But mk9 is quite nice too
honestly the heavy swords are tiring as they do nothing to carapace
i'll take a rashad over the swords tbh
I also run flak on it
when we gettin dual rashads
Revolver, Bolter, Kant
Yea that’s the right choice
Maniac > Flak for heavy swords
Deathblow + Headtaker best blessing combo
We would be more likely to get dual tac axes first
It's prob gonna be dual tac axes if we get dual axes at all
I’m looking for headtaker atm
easier to wield
good good
and they're more like hatchets
here is mine, its fun but I hate going up against crushers with it
mauler packs you can aim for chest
can't pare down the plasma or flamer to any smaller than about this
This is what my sword looks like atm
oh well
So the thing with heavy swords against crushers
Yea it’ll take 3-5 seconds to kill it
💩
But the trick is
they'll just have to make my plasma and flamer pistols after they're done making my bolt pistol
Special->Heavy it
Lord, if you have that 2nd mod slot that’s nice af
This will bully any crusher as the stagger is enough to stop its attacks
with a rashad if you are quick enough can kill 3 by bonking them in the head one at a time
I know but it’s still painful even with the +50 finess on dodge
alternate to keep them staggered
Yea that’s why you make up for it with a ranged that’s good against carapace
Bolter, revolver, etc
Bolter
Isn’t deathblow about on par with wrath on the sword
that rampage/headtaker 9 turned me off to heavy swords entirely, it was so silly strong back when I got it the game became unironically boring
so I dropped it/heavies and transcended to krhshrrhshr
plasma pistols, bolt pistols, flamer pistols, las pistols and auto pistols are great and all
But where's my pistol
Im using the same weapon combo atm
But momentum build instead with that Fury rush
I left the gun on default cause I have yet to get a good gun to pair it with
Also you all would be jealous I got that sword as a mission reward it’s a 376
Id change Wrath in it
Wrath is not good on hs
I prefer knife with throwing knives personally
If I had a ballistic knife secondary I would use it
Can’t wrath give you more cleave overall cause isn’t the other one just ignore hit mass
Cleave stat from wrath and sweep do not do anything on heavysword because the weapon already has massive cleave
Im on a lookout for knife, unlucky with getting good base to work with (also low lvl blessings)
RNG kinda steered me to the Heavy Sword, and its great at horde clear
Deathblow is excessively better than wrath
Ignoring hitmass lets you apply first target damage to 4 enemies and kill 4 elites in one swing
Didnt know
Yeah im running Deathblow+Headtaker
There’s a massive different between ignoring hit mass and increasing hit mass you can cleave
Cleave does nothing for hsword
I want imidiatly
Deathblow allows you to deal full dmg to like 4 targets at once, so one swing often decapitates 4 targets
8 ragers
You can ignore the hit mass on all if you weak point kill them
Which is fucking insane
I get the point now
Since it already hits through everything by default you dont need cleave
Im talking like expert on this matter, yet i got schooled it in here just few days ago 😅
The new evi doesnt want sweep/cleave for the opposite reason, it’s horizontal strikes can only damage 3 enemies regardless of cleave
Also I had no choice but to reword both flat perks on the sword cause they were really bad
But was noticeable change for the better
Ain’t it 4
I thought it was 4-5
Dont go crit with hsword
I got that in a shop an hour ago
It rips
why tho
It’s much better than you think
Crit is strictly better on dclaws and evis and chsword
It is much worse than what you think
Hsword has average crit chance and no synergistic blessings
It has a base crit of 5%
And it has a low/average finesse score
If you get the extra finess perk and then the crit keystone the damage goes through the roof
Dclaw, chsword and eviscerator are just better
Chord
Wrong
Finesse type damage only boosts the bonus damage you would get from crit/weakspot
They are better at CDR, HS is better at being a weapon
Yes that only applies 50% to the bonus amount
That’s damage not bonus amount
So about 15% actual bonus because hsword
It's not as good as you think, I have to agree
You dont know mechanics im telling you
Crit damage weakspot damage finesse damage is calculated poorly
Then fatshark need to do a better job wording
Dclaw rolls finesse and has a high finesse base so it benefits more with crit than hsword ever will
whats ultimate crusher sniping bolter setup? this?
Hsword always gets the most out of momentum and/or martyrdom
No
Surgical to pinning or even shattering to pinning fire
oh ok, ill farm one
With damnation level numbers and bolters general clunkiness surgical is wasted on zealot
Surgical to pinning
You want to chastise and magdump
God game’s lantern on mobile sucks with all the ads
Do you specifically want to snipe?
If you want to snipe go play vet
And use a surgical bolter for 1 match before going to the mk3 helbore, plasma, or revolver
Even then on vet wouldn’t pinning still be better
Vet goes pinning surgical iirc
It is weird but shattering got nerfed recently
I dont think the tooltip is updated
wtf I just loaded into a game mid mission, but its at the beginning and I'm with 3 bots
Someone probably left as you were joining i guess
Enjoy your new strike team
zealot runs shattering pinning with flak and cara if you want to use the bolter as anti-armor
Lmao is it at least an easy mission
Or is it orthos damnation
damnation normal
You'll maybe be fine
Also how viable is knife in auric
It feels like it does 0 damage to armour
Unless I'm using it wrong
shattering doesnt do much cause they changed how it stacks, and you use chastise for armor pen
knife is mid and yes you are probably using it wrong
you need uncanny strike
then it is precog, executor, or if you are so deadset on going bleed and i'm not gonna argue with you about it, go flesh tearer
perks, maniac, flak, unyielding, carapace, and elites all good/great choices
I see
It's not a good weapon
it still applies 10% brittleness per shot, that makes your bolter take one less bullet to kill it with
instead of 5 bullets it takes 4
with shattering impact
It is a fun weapon however
You can go full knife goblin
Is it fun for your teammates too?
I can only assume yes
Who cares about teammates though, you do you
knife is viable
It is working and it is fun
Silly poker go brrr
You just need a lot of effort to get mediocre results
basically as C tier as C tier can get
We rate every other weapon off the BiS, I'll rate knife off BiS too even tho people seem allergic to it
I just saw a very small very fast knife zealot once
and knife with BiS and used properly is fine
and speed
And decided that should be me
If the knife was a tiny bit better it would be mainstream
yea that is the problem cause buff knife and you have all the crit damage weakspot damage perk enjoyers with their lacerate flesh tearer knives
coming in and doing sub 200k damage
Also what's the take on the shock maul, used it the other day for the first time and it seems real solid
it is
You're using it wrong.
I assumed so
Well, now I'm in a really nice comfortable place with my zealot so far. could use some upgrades but at this rate I just want a great crucis 2 for shroudfield-momentum stuff and a knife for the chastise-fury setup.
Crit backstabs feel pretty good.
Get a good claw or a HS before the knife
It's a very fun weapon
Stealth Knife is fun, but I always end up back at caxe and crusher/ironhelm
running around as an axe gremlin is more satisfying to me in the long run
ok 1 shotting muties is bringing me back to the hs6
caxe is just great
well caxe is the best out there from what i've heard
two of the three caxes, that is
rashad
It's a great all-rounder weapon
Two of two
poor achlys

good thing you can make the others look like an Achlys with the commisary skin
mk2 taxe was my beloved back on launch
Personally just give so little of a shit about the hsword. I know it's solid as hell but I'm just not interested at the moment. If a solid hsword just lands in my lap, like anything else, will just get used to feel it but it's knives and hammers for me right now.
So... did I miss anything in the last, like, 3 days? >.>
Knives, hammers and revolvers.
If I ever get my hands on a good lawbringer shotgun it's going nuts.
i think they're talking about the weapons they are into rn
Zealot got me back on my crit backstab shit again.
Well if the knife FEELS good to you then go ahead
I mean, if I want better damage, I'm gettin me mallet.
mallet(s).
still need a better crusher.
I got a near-perfect Crusher like a week before it got buffed
I was initially sad until... well, it got buffed a week later
then I was a very happy zealot
Is one of blessing combinations to aim for thrust and headtaker?
(except for the fact that I don't have the cool paid skins for it)
Thrust is the big important part for momentum setups from what I'm aware of.
Or thrust and slaughterer
Since I want to keep doing shroudfield stuff for the three kinds of bonks.
Thrust is the big important part for hammers, period
Was going to ask if that blessing carried itself into other builds. Good to know.
For Crusher? Or Hammer
Hammers are such a horrible weapon to roll
Thunder hamemrs.
I got one with thrust and some hit mass ignore blessing idr.
Thrust is necessary to oneshot elites and bosses with the heavy attack
Needs three to four stats high and specific blessings and perks
yeah it's pretty finicky
PLASMA
For the second blessing, Slaughterer or Headtaker is good for general use
Can't remember if Thunderous lets either hammer hit specific breakpoints
I think that used to be the case long ago
thrust slaught/headtaker is the blessing combo for both hammers
lol a level 13 player joined and saw my level 8 psyker and just noped tf out, I don't even blame them xD
whats the dump stat on XV ev
what are ranged options that pairs well with crusher? i've been running revolver but im keen to try anything really
check the range and find what % you need to hit tho
cleave always rounds up to the next integer
so if it's 9.001 you get 10 cleave
I have one with 30% cleave 
I mean, the mass it can swing through
bruh
Inspect->see breakdowns
I swear by my bolter with the crusher
that sounds like an absolute overkill
I like laspistol
this value
naw the bolter allows me to nope ranged specials with just a snapshot
at any range
and then get back to pulpin'
oh interesting. which one?
The old one
so you use it only to snipe stuff?
I'm getting to where any single target is 2 or 3 hits from dead with the crusher, or at least it's dead before it gets back up off the ground
so I'm tryin to learn how to jackie chan 1-2-3-disengage
teach me the ways please 
and the bolter meshes really nicely with that
im still a crusher amateur
combo push attack headshots off of prior attacks so you get skullcrusher buff
when do i special?
mostly for CC
oh
When a bulwark charges you.
the special isnt needed to do big damage?
bruh
i've been playing this thing wrong this whole time
no the special is utility move, the special heavy barely does more damage
The special is for AoE CC
but yeah just read what josho wrote
the big damage comes from high attack speed and combos and finesse damage on stuff like push attack
and utilizing skullcrusher in combos cause the only way skullcrusher activates is on targets that are mid stagger or on the floor
it can help but what's more important than damage is how the weapon discharges now
unlike the paul, the crusher's light swings are half damage and half blast radius size
so lights on most crushers won't discharge against more than what you connect the swing with
the best thing about the special lights is infinite cleave
Somehow crusher is so boring to use for me. And I'm not bored by rashad. IDK why, probably the sound design.
the heavy attacks will stagger and push away, but only about as far as your weapon reaches
here's just a quick oncearound the grinder cuz I was already in there
so it's a breather for you, not the room
Can never get bored with mk 6 heavy sword personally. Makes you feel like a space samurai
specifically for carapace the highest damage you can deal in a single hit is a charged push attack headshot
so if u knock a crusher onto the floor (which is possible but for the most part not happening) and can line up a headshot it's funny to do
same
since you don't not take skullcrusher, you need your enemy in the process of gettin laid out to hit your best damage output
so the power up light swing will clear a horde and a heavy will all but assplant a crusher and jostle the things right next to it
the advantage is now that they're assplanted, for the rest of their short little lives you can reduce the number of hits from 5-7 to 2-3
push attack is perhaps the best attack the crusher has
it does silly damage against weakspot, will ragdoll 3-4 horde
and the next three swings from light attack are whapwhapwhap weak spot increase attacks too
so push, attack, lightlightlight
and you've hit them 4 times with 5 of the top 6 hardest hitting attacks the weapon has
you'll even learn to work a power up in there somewhere as you find the time
you can, with practice, learn how to power the thing up every swing and lose no time in doing so
and when you get the moveset down in muscle memory you can use it to conserve your speed while letting go aoe discharge attacks
but this'll tunnel vision you into gotta go fast like sanic gotta hit hard like reaper and actually lose overall nimbleness
that said when you gitgud you can use it to sprint faster than you can just holding down the shiftkey
you can s k e e d a d d l e
i tested it in normal t5 true solo to take a feel of the weapon and its combos, but i didnt realize skullcrusher potential and how to properly make use of it, thats why i felt like the damage output was so low
Retreating? Nah, tactical reposition to fight another day
this makes a lot of sense now
but does skullcrusher damage scales with how much staggered the target is?
why piety tho? isnt inexorable judgement better?
more atk speed = faster combo?
or you're looking to one shot stuff with crits?
I like being able to seize the moment when a fights going poorly
it lets me charge the team into a room full of ranged enemies, stun everything up to bosses, heal everyone in range and make everything else cower in place
it's a nice pause button
oh
oh i was talking about the keystone in particular haha
i like chorus but i cant play without chastise
I only just started using piety actually, I ran momentum from day 1 of the career update
i feel like im nerfing myself by not using chastise but i understand your point too
ahh i see
with bible thump and corruption eater I keep the whole team alive a lot longer than those degenerates deserve to be

lmao understandable really
building for max move speed and attack rate/cleave damage makes it all feel like a really dodgy DND priest class playthrough
StopDying, StopRotting, WhyAreYouOverThere
I have a universal truth that if everyone else stays alive for long enough, the mission will complete
so all I have to do is keep these idiots alive for the next half hour, and I get gear and money to spend on gear
Bauty is subjective, change my mind
bauty
yeah a few
i mean
HOW DO U MAKE BOLTER WORK ON ZEALOT
you dont
pinning fire shattering impact/cavalcade
probably like 1 fourth of the women
it's too fat
or surgical pinning fire
Ugh the randoms tonight suck fucking ass... then again this is pretty close to the weekend where they get slightly(unlike before which was drastically) worse...
everyone in this game is kinda off the charts
slow
use it for carapace enemies, dense armor enemy packs
and bosses
or pick off long range elites (if you cant dash towards them)
I mean I was literally doing more monster damage than everyone with brain rupture and the faster charge on career skill use as my psyker...
I am the Emperors smoothie blender
I really like having a mk4 dueling/deimos force sword with a surge staff and brain rupture
If they play their roles
Cuz... the low difficulty pugs? make heresy pugs look decent... :/
Is this build okay? and I cant decide where to spend last 2 points, they arent in there yet
grab shield of contempt and the one above it in the middle thing below the fire nade
remove purge the unclean and the one before it, then go for second wind
Is Martyrdom decent now? I've been gone a little and it was laughably bad before
Agreed
what weapon are you running
and I have both modifiers for martyrdrom, screwed up the screenie
Hey which hammer is better?
2nd one
Right one
Crucis
ok ty
I’d choose right
ht3 to 4 is a 2.5% power difference so
Keep both but the right is what I'd use
Or balance changes happen
maybe I can farm for thrust 4
me?
yes
XVevis
ok yeah just go for second wind
you can try lol
should I get blood redemption or scourge
scourge if you are running piety
martyrdom
then don't run scourge
1
looks like shit
idk what that guy's on about, I simp pretty hard for my gal here and she's got so much facial scarring it's disfigured her jaw on that side of her face
The Emperors covid mask
Damn i love auric pugs
half the allure is all the fucking crazy bottled up
is second wind better than good balance?
He just can't catch a break.
Subjectively: yes.
Objectively: probably also yes.
I can confirm some players are skarsnik
I love it
had a knife zealot run far ahead die, quit and re-join 5 times in a row
pretty entertaining
Par for the course
Suspiciously human shaped gobbo
They get the zoomies like dogs
ran two runs in the morning, solo.. People asleep..??
i wish the re-joining cheese wasn't a thing
LMAO
Armored core 6 gives a penalty for rage quiting in pvp why not for darktide lmao
depends on your region
eu asleep
im going to create a ogryn rn just so i can make a riddick cosplay
should be fine on auric board
ran a auric heresy and normal damnation solo
yeah heresy auric and normal damn will be less populated
max blockage of people are 10
everyone who plays at ungodly hours is already at auric damn p much
well, when someone joined they left imediatly
hppens
if you're doin ten minute runs
solo, too easy
What are the Revolver blessings I should have?
thought it was payday
Armored Core 6 is a mans game
With mans consequences.
I have a very very cancerous build
fromsoft pvp is poopoo
10 missile volley on both shoulders with flamethrowers weapons
And that's why I use this to establish dominance in PvP.
Nothing more cancer than my build.
Dual gattling guns and dual stun lance
better
blegh
Dual gatling alongside 2 shoulder cannons
all those missing ranged enemies are now crushers and maulers
good
That's what I used before stun lance
Songbird I believe.
I dont use songbirds cause they SUCK
Wait were getting modded weapons now?
unfortunately my matches are usually made up of meat and stupid
so crusher packs tend to uh oh there goes the mission
I fhyuck with songbird
ranged at least they have to chase down and murder the squad one by one
And it's easy to close the gap on my handy cart
The double tap adds a ton of stun on top of the gattlings
The new parts fuck hard
Been to many games lately
2 shoulder gatlings
Sounds like it, the dual gats do 90% of my stun lmao
The shoulder gatlings overheat fast but have a really fast cooldown
So you burst fire them to exhaust enemy quickboosts
Guys I have very stupid quiestion but I dont know what the prblem is
Quad Mount Machine Guns dominating warfare from 1943 to the far flung future.
Gotta love it.
I havd 2 different builds - one with evi and one with axe both different trees
But when I use one I have 2 wounds less - same curios equipped
Is it cause Faith skill?
You have a wound talent
Aye, I just saw it, thanks
2 wounds node above martyr
never clutch doors at the espinage mission
A sad short story about why everyone wants TWBS
there will be sausages
