So you're saying

#

I need 80 mobility

#

Or I'm leaving speed on the table

south folio
#

opposite

little thicket
#

Nah im saying that mobility modifer isnt very relevant number wise for high movement speed.

south folio
#

since mobility on weapons gives like +0.45 sprint speed max typically

#

but your base sprint speed as zealot is 5.2 anyways

shadow ember
#

I get your saying it isn't much

#

But you have to understand

#

I'm after fastest zealot mechanically possible

#

Everything else is secondary

#

Speed stims were great

junior vortex
#

Speed is important in team based games I think you guys are really underestimating it.

fleet zealot
#

i'm not

south folio
#

i think i'm appropriately rating speed

fleet zealot
#

it's great for lower diffs/speedruns

#

and occassionally some clutch saves

south folio
#

it's nice to have speed esp when you reach the breakpoint for outrunning chaff

little thicket
#

I dont think most people should be allowed to have speed.

south folio
#

but it's also pretty whatevs cuz a lot of fights take place in one spot

shadow ember
#

Enough speed turns your knife into a ranged weapon

fleet zealot
#

but in auric, enemies are constantly running at me

little thicket
#

There should be speed limits in place.

fleet zealot
#

and I'm not going to run away like some coward while the god emperor watches

shadow ember
#

The power of " be over there now" is extreme

fleet zealot
#

they are gonna catch a headful of crusher

shadow ember
#

Let alone walking dodges

fleet zealot
shadow ember
#

Oh no listen

fleet zealot
#

and what 360 block mechanic is for

shadow ember
#

As obstinate as I am

#

I have no love for speed run aggro drop zealots

#

I want the max speed so I can run towards the heresy or back to coherency

#

I don't know how you have the blood thirst to play zealot and also run past alive enemies

fleet zealot
#

I am the coherency if my team wants my toughness DR they better stick with me

#

and the red sea I'm making with green paint

little thicket
#

One of my friends yesterday in the game spent near entire sessions being a dumb knife zealot.

#

Actual pain.

fleet zealot
#

had a knife zealot a few weeks ago

#

saw a crusher elite pack adna chaos spawn

#

stealthed and ran away to go pick up crafting mats

rose flower
#

I love having the speed because a Trapper will miss. Run away. And I’ll be sprinting behind them and closing in like “NO”

sour oxide
#

lol don't give us as a bad name

shadow ember
#

And he went to backstab and kill for the emperor

#

Right?

shadow ember
fleet zealot
#

eventually he made it back but as soon as he got stealth again he ran past and started going further in the level

rose flower
#

Knife Zealots are just your average British man hats why no one likes them

fleet zealot
#

and then he was the alst one alive cause I got downed trying to pick up our 2 vets

sour oxide
#

I like the silent delayed dagger throw to kill a special far far away

shadow ember
#

Real talk

fleet zealot
#

and he just ate one crusher overhead cause he panic wasted all his dodges

shadow ember
#

If tac axe hit knife sprint speeds I'd take it more often

fleet zealot
#

if the taxe didn't suck ass

shadow ember
fleet zealot
#

it would be taken more often

shadow ember
#

With shroud

little thicket
#

It probably does.

rose flower
#

Bro if Taxe had that speed I would ALWAYS take it

fleet zealot
shadow ember
#

He can JUST kill the crusher

fleet zealot
#

meme/subpar builds

#

attract the worst players

fleet zealot
shadow ember
#

But he can just 1 shot a crusher no memes needed

fleet zealot
#

i need to get that scoreboard extension mod

#

so I can see loadouts

shadow ember
#

I can do it and I take bloodletter

sour oxide
#

what is a meme/subpar build? dagger?

fleet zealot
#

BLOODLETTER IS A CHAIN WEAPON BLESSING

shadow ember
#

Feh

fleet zealot
sour oxide
#

yeah I run uncanny and riposte but I am momentum

fleet zealot
sour oxide
#

I dont understand bleed zealots lliterally get almost no return on your bleed

fleet zealot
#

momentum is alright but honestly knife uses blazing piety really well

shadow ember
#

Pinning fire smg or meming

fleet zealot
#

cough cough shove it

#

sick ass got that virus

sour oxide
#

Blazing PIety I would rather use a evis

fleet zealot
#

you don't need to run top of the top meta

sour oxide
#

Because all your attacks will swing through most mobs.

shadow ember
rose flower
#

For real though because you mentioned it. If Tac Axe had knife speed I would be running that 24/7

fleet zealot
#

i can't with yall

#

goodnight

#

speed freaks

fleet zealot
#

attack speed>>>>> movement speed

#

fight me

#

i'll win

#

cause chastise locks on through stealth (idk if it does)

shadow ember
fleet zealot
#

ogryn chat is too bigoted in my experience /joke

sour oxide
#

lol attack speed + weapon with high top end. yes its savage

shadow ember
#

Now listen

#

I'm also an attack speed junkie

#

But that's different

fleet zealot
#

attack speed on crusher makes it insane

shadow ember
#

That's heavy sword shit

fleet zealot
#

i feel like a grandmaster at arms

rose flower
#

I just like running enemies down and getting up close and personal. Guns are overrated

fair igloo
#

If u think about it the faster your movement speed the faster you can move your arms therefore faster attacks >:)

fleet zealot
#

beating people to death with a lamp post and it works

shadow ember
fleet zealot
#

we should get a fire crusher

#

variant

shadow ember
#

^

#

Nah

#

I want a blue crusher

#

Light crusher gang

fleet zealot
#

but

fleet zealot
#

ours is blue

shadow ember
#

It is?

sour oxide
#

imo I think shroud needs a little nerf. make dogs smell you or something

fleet zealot
#

it turns blue when you activate it

#

shroud won't get nerfs cause chastise is just better consistency

rose flower
#

Didn’t even know knife could get Haymaker staregryn

shadow ember
#

The stealth is a side effect as far as I'm concerned

sour oxide
#

if you use shroud like a vanilla rogue to setup other attacks its savage

fleet zealot
#

chastise with any one of the two good cdr talents and you have a massive perma buff, amazing mobility, toughness regen on a button, and an instant body check stagger up to crushers/below mutants

sour oxide
#

but yeah if you pop it to go run off and collect mats ill let you die on the ground ngl

shadow ember
#

I like to pop it so things turn and then backstab my way to the team

fleet zealot
#

oh and chastise gives armor pen to ranged attacks

shadow ember
#

I'm just saying

fleet zealot
#

letting you mow down crushers with guns that shouldn't mow down crushers

sour oxide
#

I am not sure if it does anymore we used to pop it before running a flamer but flamers are fun sponges

shadow ember
#

If you have a knife zealot with shroud there should never be a teammate fighting alone

#

Because you can and should get to them

fleet zealot
#

you are combining a selfish build with a unselfish playstyle

fleet zealot
#

i respect it

#

but, no that's not what most knife zealots do

shadow ember
#

Yeah....

fleet zealot
#

most knife zealots are in timbuktoo

shadow ember
#

I may be a speed junkie

fleet zealot
#

in a corner

shadow ember
#

But I am NOT a fan of the metric knife zewot

fleet zealot
#

waiting for their lacerate flesh tearer knife to kill the endlessly respawning horde

sour oxide
#

heh I ping pong between teammates during a fight

fleet zealot
#

I am the frontline

sour oxide
#

whoever needs a little love

#

or intercept disablers

fleet zealot
#

my crusher keeps the 180* in front of me safe for my team

shadow ember
#

If I can be everywhere In a few secs you can bet you all over the place

ember yew
#

The main problem with PUG knife zealot is that 6 out of 10 go and die somewhere far away (or get CC'ed and die), 3 out of 10 do really low/subpar damage to be something serious and only one is somewhat capable of doing things right

#

that's when you get knife zealot memes

shadow ember
#

You know what grinds my gears

#

Knife zealots who don't loot

#

What, do they expect the ogryn to do it?

sour oxide
#

lol I have 800k plasteel sorry but looting isn't high on my list =X

ember yew
shadow ember
#

And that's why you don't win the scoreboard

sour oxide
#

I win the score board a lot tbh

shadow ember
#

Everyone knows the only stat that matters in. The end is most plasteel

sour oxide
#

but I don't ram it down everyones throat like some tools

shadow ember
#

So you DO loot

shadow ember
#

Plasteel is where we are equal

#

It's just that, yknow

#

Zealots are more equal

#

As is proper

ember yew
#

faster bird get the plasteel

sour oxide
#

yeah I guess I do this was my last run last night but I normally get my points from special kills

ember yew
#

this is high damage for a pug

shadow ember
#

Most plasteel

fair igloo
#

i'm more surprised to see that u have offense and total score on :o

shadow ember
#

Winner

sour oxide
#

I only play quick play I have no frens

ember yew
#

oh damn

shadow ember
#

Who needs friends

ember yew
#

im rich too

shadow ember
#

We have the dt community

sour oxide
#

lol true

#

whats the cap on plasteel

#

isn't it 1 m?

shadow ember
#

I used to wonder what the fastest ogryn build was

#

But that's not nearly as interesting a question

sour oxide
#

I have ran into some that are faster than me out of the gate as a knife zealot

#

I have no idea how but damn big man could move

ember yew
shadow ember
#

I feel like I should say

#

Because I always leave out

ember yew
#

should be done within like 2 minutes

shadow ember
#

My speed zealot runs with a fuck load of sprint efficiency

ember yew
#

report the rusher

shadow ember
#

I abuse that sprint dodge talent like a mother fucker

sour oxide
#

I am all stam.

#

stam is the wonder stat

shadow ember
fleet zealot
#

but

#

do you READ

shadow ember
#

Stam peril block psykers

fleet zealot
#

read motherfucker read

shadow ember
#

Not giving anything related to a shit

fleet zealot
#

the sprint dodge talent just extends the mechanic that already exists

shadow ember
#

10% faster sprint?

#

Yeah it's great

fleet zealot
#

like yea for your case the speed increase is good but it doesn't give you more sprint dodges above 0 stam

shadow ember
#

Mandatory even

fleet zealot
#

it only extends sprint dodging mechanic at 0 stam

#

so sprint efficiency is just wasting that part of the talent

shadow ember
#

Really?

fleet zealot
#

yes

sour oxide
shadow ember
#

Even if

#

Does it count regularly?

fleet zealot
#

you dodge while sprinting as normal based on speed and angle

shadow ember
#

Hum

fleet zealot
#

this stops at 0 stam

shadow ember
#

Neat

fleet zealot
#

unless you have the talent

shadow ember
#

I can't get rid of it because speed

sour oxide
#

the worst is 0 stam and getting hit by anything and your guy staggers for like 4 steps

fleet zealot
#

you still need to watch your angle vs shooters

shadow ember
#

But I'm not gonna lie

#

I want the extra point for rising fury

fleet zealot
#

yes i'm not saying to get off of it but i need to clarify that mechanic or my brain won't let me sleep

shadow ember
#

I love my build and I don't NEED the best perks

#

But compared to where I stared my tree is def anorexic

fleet zealot
#

IT"S not about best

#

it's just about

#

understanding

#

the mechanics

shadow ember
#

I had to shave a decent amount of perks I like for speed

sour oxide
#

I just made my build on release, changed a few things but never looked at anyone elses. Just keep doing me 😄

fleet zealot
#

so you don't spread false information

#

play what you want

shadow ember
#

Imo

sour oxide
#

agreed

#

I think my last tweak was getting rid of holy rev

shadow ember
#

I've been trying to come up with a zealot build that leans into the flamer as hard as.i can

#

But that's basically " take flamer"

sour oxide
#

playing like an OG zealot @ 1hp

shadow ember
#

Maybe middle tree some shit

#

God

#

Og heavy sword headtaker zealot

sour oxide
#

one of these days ill finish my momentum zealot guide

#

and everyone can sht on it

shadow ember
#

Heavy sword momentum fucks

sour oxide
#

where they found a turkish sword 40k years later who knowsd

shadow ember
#

Add in charge attack speed and you can lawnmower almost anyhing

#

That's for sure my "throw myself into situations no one.but the ogryn could.maybe survive" setup

sour oxide
#

I call it the "im not locked in here with you, youre locked in here with me" style of play

shadow ember
#

Everyone is dead is my durability perk

#

The horde music is for me not you

sour oxide
#

this

shadow ember
#

Did they fix ambushes yet btw?

sour oxide
#

ambushes?

shadow ember
#

They made it so the music didn't play during multi side ambushes

sour oxide
#

ohh I dunno tbh

shadow ember
#

So it would be easier to hear specials

#

It seems like everyone hates the change

sour oxide
#

I just liike the guy who yells "WHOSE IN THE SHADOWS"

shadow ember
#

"So many... So be it.'

sour oxide
#

hmm not many playing tonight it seems

sturdy owl
#

This is a great knife, right guys?

royal vortex
#

need to swap crit chance to crit damage of course

sturdy owl
#

Of course

coarse birch
#

oh man he is cooking

#

@royal vortex look wtf arco is running

maiden path
#

peetah

#

da emperorr said quagmire was a heretic

#

joe joined the traitro guardss

#

still hope someone makes a mod or something that adds traitor guardsmen armor

#

i wanna wear all that gold and red armor

royal vortex
sour oxide
sturdy owl
ember yew
#

yes, its missing flesh tearer

#

with this bricked thing cant create pugs favorite flashtearer lacerate knife

coarse birch
#

wasnt the worst

#

but i was putting in like 200% effort lmao

south folio
royal vortex
#

oh my god taxe2 agri revolver

#

why would u use agri revolver

coarse birch
#

ok its actually not that bad

#

like i am getting use out of it

royal vortex
#

u could get use out of pre patch 13 graia iag

#

i hate that gun

coarse birch
royal vortex
#

it is the opposite of fun to use for me

coarse birch
#

i do get suppressed sometimes and cant hit the thing 2 feet in front of me

#

but i cant like tell when im suppressed that well

royal vortex
#

when any ranged enemy exists with exe stance on cooldown

coarse birch
#

i just assume i am when i am being shot at

#

but deimos/agri was doing well

#

taxe/agri also did fine but idk if i can call it good

#

when compared to actual good builds

lunar vector
#

I love the bolter as a zealot, wear heavy armor and I almost feel like a sister of battle

royal vortex
#

run taxe7 with recon 2

#

only use lights so u can maximize the fucked up light hitbox

coarse birch
#

i got a really good 4 from the emp

#

but its like

sour oxide
#

yup I like to strap on my highest of heels and go into battle feeling like a queen

coarse birch
#

the worst moveset ive ever seen

royal vortex
#

lmao

coarse birch
#

i can even use BM

royal vortex
#

dude if u were BMmaxing before p13 taxe4 was actually the best

coarse birch
#

cause the heavies are strikedown into uppercut

royal vortex
#

because all the taxes had/have identical heavy profiles

#

and light profiles

#

and all the lights had uncapped damage

sour oxide
#

taxe doesn't have same lights =X

#

I only can use mk7 because of it

coarse birch
#

or is it just mk2

royal vortex
#

the mk2 has the best animations

#

and the damage profiles are the same as the other 2 for heavies

sour oxide
royal vortex
#

there's 2 different light damage profiles but theyre so very slightly different theyre practically the same with 1.5 cleave of difference

#

weird weapons

coarse birch
#

can the other 2 even proc bm

#

or do they have the bad heavies for it

royal vortex
#

not very easily

coarse birch
#

id imagine that the lights cant proc it

royal vortex
#

the 4 probs cant under normal circumstances

coarse birch
#

maybe PA

#

idk

royal vortex
#

the 7 maybe

sour oxide
#

7 can easily its all over the top

coarse birch
#

i can do some 7 testing

royal vortex
sour oxide
#

tac axe feels so clunky now after playing dagger for so long

coarse birch
#

let me try and make one

royal vortex
#

dear god

coarse birch
#

im guessing its like the 2 where you need crits to proc/one shot some stuff

royal vortex
#

yea

coarse birch
#

ie shred/BM

royal vortex
#

they have identical damage profiles

#

like open wartide

coarse birch
#

oh ok

royal vortex
#

and get depressed

worn gate
#

is this a god role?

royal vortex
#

of course

coarse birch
#

i did not have the plasteel funds to make a good one

#

because i also spent a bunch on the mk2

#

sad days

royal vortex
#

simply have it

coarse birch
#

i keep trying to build it up

#

and then i end up wanting to make something

south folio
#

it's just that shrimple

coarse birch
#

and it costs me all my shit

zinc talon
royal vortex
#

oh my god

coarse birch
#

i do have more money than you

south folio
#

i just blew 1m dockets on rashads and they all are dumped in either first target or penetration

royal vortex
#

nvm

coarse birch
#

although maybe i dont want a tac axe 7 that bad

royal vortex
coarse birch
#

and i just spent a bunch on taxes and agri revos?

#

outplaye d

royal vortex
coarse birch
#

also josho you should join

royal vortex

im eating

maybe in a bit

i need names

i hope your pillow is wet when you go to bed tonight

royal vortex
#

curse of 7 reapers upon you

coarse birch
#

it was one fuckin shotgunner

onyx saddle
#

is benediction, 15% toughess damage reduction aura, multiplicative or addiive with the damge reduciton nodes?

coarse birch
#

who pushed me off a ledge into a burster

#

into a trapper

royal vortex
#

lmao

coarse birch
#

and i fuckin died

royal vortex
#

u get what u deserve

sour oxide
#

passed around between the whole crew =X

zinc talon
#

as well as with other cohesion auras like mine

#

it's all just a +%

#

but damage reduction is both toughness and health

#

toughness damage is just the one

ripe quest
#

There's a tad of nuance though. Tdr stat nodes themselves check to see how many you have then give a sum, so 3x would be 15% instead of .95^3

zinc talon
#

did I speak correctly about the endd result that gets plugged into the nerdmath

hushed bear
#

is stub revolver hand cannon still affecting all weapons/abilities?

zinc talon
#

it's as though each 10% node or whatever is added together and that's your final mitigation

zinc talon
#

pretty standard Codie batshit hour behavior

fading vale
fading vale
#

I think they are the only ones that can tank snipers with pure toughness

calm salmon
# fading vale I think they are the only ones that can tank snipers with pure toughness

they do need a bunch of other stuff though:

3x Sniper Resist on curios, Feel No Pain, and some amount of stacks of bleed DR on top. Otherwise they still take chip damage through toughness, though considering their HP pool even with a full toughness build, it may as well not matter outside of the zeroed toughness.

Other than that, veteran with full gold toughness, or anyone really.

fading vale
#

@royal vortex what do you run to tank snipers

#

cause IIRC you would just face tank snipers with like no setup and just toughness

calm salmon
#

snipers do what, 1250 damage?

fading vale
#

yeah

calm salmon
#

that's down to 825 immediately

#

from ogryn's passives, and the three TDR nodes

#

sorry, 425?

#

I cannae math

#

You can get ~220 toughness with curios

#

So you still need some additional TDR on top to get the 425 below whatever your toughness pool is.

fading vale
#

right

calm salmon
#

its 20% on curios, for damage resistances?

#

so 425 x .2 x .2 x .2 for 3x sniper

fair igloo
#

I think alot of ppl notice ogryns tanking sniper shots when they're being revived by one so don't forget to add in won't give in!!

fading vale
#

I specifically remember cause josho would just tank multiple snipers per game, take no damage, and shout about OGRYN TOUGHNESS BAD

calm salmon
fading vale
#

idk how many sniper resists he had

calm salmon
#

So 66% TDR, + 60% Sniper resist is 217 damage done

fading vale
#

plus he probably also had my benediction aura and maybe FNP

calm salmon
#

But yeah, JUST 3x 20% sniper resist and ogryn's passives on 3x 17% toughness curios allows you to facetank a sniper

#

before any other buffs like bleed DR or FNP

fading vale
#

used to be vets job to face tank snipers smh

calm salmon
#

lets assume 95 toughness from tree

50 toughness from base ogryn

  • 145 toughness before curios

Lets assume 3x 17%, for a total of 219 toughness

#

So, with:

  • 3x 17% toughness curios

  • 3x 10% TDR

  • 3x 20% sniper damage resistance

You can tank a sniper shot to the face and be left at 2 toughness.

#

217 x .25 = 162.75 damage done if you have Feel No Pain at all 10 stacks, giving you a toughness leftover of 56 KEKW_ogryn

royal vortex
#

that's about right yeah

calm salmon
#

yeah ogryn isn't overpowered at all KEKW_ogryn

south folio
#

i think vet can but you need maximum toughness and 3x sniper res iirc

#

and close order drill, among other things

royal vortex
#

this is a really dumb example

fading vale
#

lol

royal vortex
#

261 down to 81

south folio
#

alright so you have basically just an unconditional way of tanking snipers

calm salmon
#

you could halve all of ogryn's sources of TDR and he'd still be the tankiest class in the game.

royal vortex
calm salmon
#

Yeah, ogryn literally just asks that you exist

#

funnily enough, I regularly use this build.

#

And it'll get you there with the right curios

south folio
#

feel no pain my beloved

calm salmon
# calm salmon

great build, much suggest. Bullrush modifiers are nice but definitely not necessary because bullrush is the best ult in the game

#

only overshadowed by vet shout

fading vale
#

MAKING A PATH into a single bulwark I'm about to kill

#

best ult

calm salmon
#

Well

#

randos besides

#

But at that point, only vet shout is good for them.

#

They're not gonna do much with anything else if that's their normal gameplan

fading vale
#

playing with a tauntgryn is quite funny

calm salmon
#

i love taunting a group of crushers and then throwing nuke

#

try again bragg - crusher x9

fading vale
#

I was able to more or less one shot a daemonhost with tauntgryn and just chastise + momentum

#

their damage buffs are no joke

calm salmon
#

+25% damage is nothing to scoff at

fading vale
#

there's some other debuff too right

#

plus the elite damage aura

#

er heavy damage

#

whatever it is exactly

calm salmon
#

+10% heavy attack damage

#

if the ogryn paths that way.

#

so +35% damage to thunder hammer right off the bat, for example.

#

and the TH user is gonna have 60% power from thrust

fading vale
#

I feel like there was also a debuff applied on hit from something

calm salmon
#

hopefully

#

negative

calm salmon
#

Oh yeah, soften them up

#

ogryn has to hit them in melee though, for an additional +15% damage

#

so assuming all checks met: +50% heavy attack damage to everyone in coherency

#

if they're using heavy attacks

fading vale
#

that's a lot

calm salmon
#

ogryn really be out here

#

best to stick to the lad for all the stupid buffs he can give

#

Soften them Up and Shout aren't coherency related though, which is. . . nice or bad for the game depending on your outlook.

#

So even if you're not in coherency its still 25% + 15% for the ogryn taunting and smacking something once.

#

Even just assuming taunt and seu, that's 5500 damage for a TH user

#

change as necessary based on chastise the wicked, momentum and whatever other zeaot buffs may be active like +20-25% unyielding from weapon perk, 20% unyielding from talent tree blablabla

zealous halo
#

im using chainsword how does one deal with a rager? they just melt me before i can saw them

west gate
#

dodge backwards and block until they're done or your team mate kills em

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

or shoot them before they get to you

zealous halo
#

i see ty

#

too used to ogryn

#

trying to push them but no stagger

calm salmon
#

that's the answer to ragers on everyone

west gate
#

^

calm salmon
#

fatshark turned them into horde enemies

visual stream
calm salmon
#

they have too much HP and stagger resistance to be horde enemies so melee is now suicide against them

#

Fix soon™️ one hopes

fair igloo
zealous halo
#

yeah sometimes its just behind me too and all of a sudden im 30% hp

west gate
#

honestly i like the variety in hordes, makes the game more difficult and enjoyable

calm salmon
#

that's fine, ragers are not.

#

They're a completely unfun enemy to fight because they can't be dodged in melee.

west gate

theres a sound queue whenever you're about to be hit from behind

fair igloo
#

im guessing replace thunderstrike with hammerblow and elites to carapace?

calm salmon
#

i like flak/maniac on crusher

west gate
#

im convinced flak is basically the best perk on every weapon

calm salmon
#

that would be correct yes

fair igloo
#

wait so why flak over carapace?

calm salmon
#

flak/maniac goes on like 90% of weapons

#

because there's more flak enemies

#

it just goes further

fair igloo
#

well wutevs
if idon't like carapace i can always just change it to flak later

west gate
#

doesnt maniac only help you get to breakpoint on a few weapons

calm salmon
#

on every weapon*

#

because maniac ragers exist

#

its not like super duper useful for trappers and whatnot, unless you're using a headhunter

west gate
#

yeah but you shouldnt be in melee with them in the first place

fair igloo
#

oh wait, would it be better than the one i'm currently using?

calm salmon
#

but it hits BPs on basically everything for maniac ragers

fair igloo
#

i just rolled the new one on a whim

#

i notice the new one has a lower damage stat so idk

west gate
#

idk, i dont like putting on a perk that is essentially only active when fighting one enemy when i could be dealing more damage to a whole host of enemy types much more frequently

calm salmon
#

so close yet so far there milkman

fair igloo
west gate
#

since carpace comes into effect more often

fair igloo
#

ohh
the way u phrased ur other msg made it REALLY sound like u would rather take maniac since maniac is like 6 enemies and cara is 2

#

imnot very smart tho

west gate
#

maniac doesnt help hit breakpoints on most weapons i dont believe, except for ragers

earnest cave
#

Everyone is asleep in my other discord servers, how are my heretical brethren/sisteren(?) holding up?

fair igloo
#

ooh that makes sense

earnest cave
#

Is sisteren even a word?

calm salmon
#

one day i'll have hammerblow 4

earnest cave
#

Because I'm TM it.

calm salmon

@coarse birch @south folio cant believe bolter is terrible and the reload is too slow

coarse birch

south folio
#

very bad weapon

coarse birch
#

i outdamaged with void

#

and void sucks

#

bad weapon

south folio
#

so true

coarse birch
#

only kills the entire room per mag

royal vortex
#

😔

coarse birch
#

if you got all your toughness back as well as 75% DR and also double damage for shooting it might be good again

royal vortex
#

TRUE

south folio
#

and a little dash of +75% ogryn damage

coarse birch
#

i had this game as positive review but sadly when they nerfed bolter into the ground i had to change it to negative. Ever since bolter got nerfed i cant complete HISTG anymore (im level 300 so im good enough just no good weapons) and my wife left me

royal vortex
#

tbf i was avoiding fighting hordes as much as possible

#

lettin u farm poxwalkers

south folio
#

had your god damn hawk eye on every elite/special

coarse birch
#

i would never farm poxwalkers

south folio
#

so true

royal vortex
south folio
#

ignore the carnival finale where i didn't close gates and just spamed caxe lights on them

coarse birch
#

besides you cant farm poxwalkers

royal vortex
#

i was fuckin ON IT

coarse birch
#

melee too hard

south folio
#

damn boi

#

158 elites killed

royal vortex
#

exe stance is bad

coarse birch
#

move up a channel and say that

south folio
#

don't tempt him

royal vortex
#

luhmayo

coarse birch
#

tbf they would agree

#

its not shout but shout is

#

shout

sturdy owl
#

Can confirm that vet chat overwhelmingly considers exe bad

royal vortex
#

its nice for orange highlight chasing

#

and on bolter it lets u unfuck recoil

coarse birch
#

yeah thats one of the main reasons i run it for bolter

#

when i play vet once a year

royal vortex
#

i play w/o suppression immunity and just hope i never have to shoot gunners without it

south folio
#

us having to wait for your exe stance to be back up to eliminate the wind tunnels

royal vortex
#

lmao

coarse birch
#

it is nice to have a wind tunnel remover

royal vortex
#

at least i kill a minimum of 6 reapers a mag

coarse birch
#

im still mad about that one shotgunner that kept shooting me in the back while i was fighting crushers cause he kept messing me up

#

like he wasnt even hurting me

#

literally just sat there pushing me like bro

#

get a life

royal vortex
#

deserved

coarse birch
#

wtf

#

what did i do to you

royal vortex
#

nothing

#

i have decided to wish harm upon innocents

coarse birch
#

wowo

#

woaw

royal vortex
#

waow

coarse birch
#

i cant believe this

royal vortex
#

voidstrike user.

coarse birch
#

i was impersonating mankar

coarse birch
#

shall we

frozen glen
#

you both should be incarcerated for playing psyker

south folio
#

so true

#

imagine playing psyker????

#

like

coarse birch
#

how many times did you complete a mission with tac axe 2 and agri revo on psyker josho

frozen glen
#

so real

coarse birch
#

im nice to everyone here but arco and sometimes josho

frozen glen
#

maybe stop being nice to josho

#

he hates that

coarse birch
#

also josho calls me a void user when i dont blow myself up with poxbursters and josho with void is just like "oH iTs An EnEmY iM gOnNa PrEsS m2 oN iT"

#

those 2 shotgunners i was fighting on my own? fuckin

#

VAPORIZED

frozen glen
#

how does that stop u from being a void user

coarse birch
#

im still a void user as of recently

#

josho is a worse one though

royal vortex
#

i voidstrike EVERYTHING

coarse birch
#

you said you hate illisi with void cause you dont need it

royal vortex
#

i cant help that im fucking stupid

south folio
#

so true

coarse birch
#

so do you not need deimoss too

#

never mind

#

i cant type

#

tbf void does kinda cover every base

#

on its own

royal vortex
coarse birch
#

oh man i forgot to make a knife and an obscurus

#

oh well

royal vortex
#

or sometimes maulers

fading vale
royal vortex
frozen glen
#

me and my discount trauma staff

fading vale
royal vortex
fading vale
#

we all have normal names this is weird

frozen glen
#

all of them except surge

coarse birch
#

surge makes me sad

#

yeah stan used all his wrong names on exhil a few days ago

fading vale
#

Bruh there has only ever been one person here that cares about the surge and they have the intelligence of a mosquito

royal vortex
#

surge is just unsatisfying

#

trauma and void both feel cool to use at least

coarse birch
#

i like the idea of a single target staff because it pairs so well with illisi or other horde clear weapons

#

which i like to run

#

but its so much worse at single target than void its insane

#

and void also gets to kill multiple things per cast and horde/shooter clear

#

like trying to kill a crusher with surge is depressing

fading vale
#

fuck let me search for that pasta

royal vortex
#

if void didnt have surge it would be more competitive

#

imo

coarse birch
#

it would def help

royal vortex
#

cuz at least surge casts faster

frozen glen
#

yeah surge shouldnt have surge either

coarse birch
#

id still like surge to have better damage vs cara

fading vale
#

I'm sorry amigo, if you can't hard carry with a staff that will make any five enemies in the game stop what they are doing and stand there for a few seconds and take damage on top of it in the time it takes you to right click, left click, and then then R. that's the definition of a player issue. The only staff that matches it in versatility is the purgatus staff. The purgatus staff just has different enemies and situations it's weak again

If i'm running surge staff I rarely get into a situation where my whole team is dead, because I have the tools that stops all the specials that suprise wipe teams. When i am in that situation pressing my F key to push/light everything around me on fire and some slash/push with my Illsi typically gives me the breathing room to go back the dogs/trappers etc under control.

What I'm getting from this is you aren't super great at melee crowd control, and that's fine a lot of people aren't, and it's a learned skill. But that's not an issue with a surge staff. It's jsut an issue that you can kind of get around with staffs like the purgatus.

coarse birch
#

oh my god i think i might remember that

#

its at least familiar

south folio
#

yeah it's the one derpy posted from reddit iirc

fading vale
#

I'm sorry amigo

coarse birch
#

you know its serious when they open with that

#

why cant i type

#

probably because it is 5:40 am

fading vale
#

inherited too many lemons

royal vortex
zealous basin
#

bitch

coarse birch
#

my sleep schedule has been destroyed

royal vortex
#

where you would tag enemies on headshot with the lmb

coarse birch
#

i blame arco and persona 3

royal vortex
#

and then the right click would hit all the tagged guys

#

but that is like

south folio
#

:(

royal vortex
#

never happening

zealous basin
#

i have an idea for surge

coarse birch
#

only cause arco and i played till like 7 am at some point

zealous basin
#

they change it so the m2 makes u talk to a woman irl

royal vortex
#

u got stuck with arco, i almost died

#

god knows who had it worse

coarse birch
#

i mean i was enjoying myself i think we played for like 5 hours

#

why did you house almost burn down

royal vortex
#

charger melted

#

bad things ensued

#

(it was not my charger)

coarse birch
#

i see

#

well its good your house did not burn down then

royal vortex
#

debatable

royal vortex
coarse birch
#

i do not know if this is a concerning statement or it is implying you dislike the house/people in it

royal vortex
#

ideally wont

#

because crushers are squishy as fk rn

royal vortex
coarse birch
#

well ig i mean in a world where rending is not rending

royal vortex
#

rn u need to solve a lot of issues about ADMs

#

crit ADM floors/rending need to go

coarse birch
#

yeah

#

if i couldnt destroy with any uncanny weapon '

#

i would be more scared

#

or like ogryn BM shovel just killing 4

royal vortex
#

i remember when club was the consistent crusher killer because u could two-shot one crusher at a time

#

and then they released shovels 2: the powercreepening

coarse birch
#

deimos even disables them

old badger
#

Is deadly accurate good for a lasgun?

royal vortex
#

yes

coarse birch
#

yes

#

bis

#

with headhunter

old badger
#

Ok I snagged that lasgun just to take the blessing from it lol

royal vortex
#

hell yeah

old badger
#

I never use lasguns but now if I do I have that blessing to put on it lmfao

coarse birch
#

oh thats what i wanted to try mk4 las gun on psyker

royal vortex
#

do u have the full auto mod

coarse birch
#

no

#

i accept my fate

royal vortex
#

RSI time

coarse birch
#

when i pick mk4 las

old badger
#

But tbh getting me to use anything but zarona and mk2 evisc is gonna be a challenge

#

im basic

coarse birch
#

tbf mk4 lasgun will be pain no matter what

#

esp when i can get suppressed

#

i wasnt even really a fan of mk12 las gun on psyker

#

finesse stuff didnt line up like i was hoping

old badger
#

I just realized I randomly have this autogun

#

and it seems like a pretty decent one other than low stopping power

royal vortex
coarse birch
#

yeah they are very similar

#

which is why i like mk4

#

its just awful

royal vortex
#

they should make it like a burstfire carbine type thing

coarse birch
#

the 1a was an in between that didnt work for a while

#

and is now an inbetween that does do something

#

but its just like

#

a little faster

#

not really noticeable

old badger
#

I'm a pyromaniac and I want to love the flamer so badly but like

#

It feels like it runs out of ammo too fast, or there isn't enough

#

I feel like I can't get enough done before I either have to reload or just run out

coarse birch
#

do you know about chastise

#

interaction with it

royal vortex
#

the big thing about the flamer is for a lot of enemies you don't have to keep shooting until they are dead

old badger
#

I think swapping my melee would help because rn I'm using like the best horde clearing melee for zel

royal vortex
#

because the burn ticks for a decent while after

old badger
#

so maybe switching to a single target weapon would make it better

old badger
coarse birch
#

yeah you also just need to apply the burn

royal vortex
#

poxwalkers take ~5 ammunition

#

if you chastise with a flamer it does significantly more flak/cara damage

coarse birch
#

wheres the clip

royal vortex
#

because chastise makes your damage vs carapace use the flak numbers and vs flak uses unarmored numbers

old badger
#

I might need a better flamer too, these are the only 2 I have rn

royal vortex
#

ouch yeah that cloud radius

coarse birch
#

low cloud radius isnt helping you

#

burn/cloud are top 2 stats for it

old badger
#

ooof

#

I rolled a pretty good zarona the other day, I just hope it rolls good blessings or mods

royal vortex
#

pog

old badger
#

watch it roll like

#

sprint efficiency, stamina, trickshooter, and point blank lol

#

please god let this revolver roll t4 surgical and crucian roulette/hand cannon

royal vortex
#

u gotta have FAITH

coarse birch
#

you must believe

#

you will either be right or become numb

#

and no longer bothered

royal vortex
#

(so that it may be crushed when u get groaners/poxwalkers and +specialists)

old badger
#

The Emperor protects fellas

#

Hopefully he also protects the rolls on this revolver LMAO

coarse birch
#

its ok i spent like 10k plasteel today so i could make a dumb taxe build

old badger
#

Even if the rolls aren't good, I can easily make it at least pretty fuckin good, though I hope it rolls perfectly

coarse birch
#

speaking of which i almost went into a match today with a grey tac axe and i think arco had a heart attack

old badger
#

I already have a revolver with a t3 surgical I could put on it

old badger
#

Getting into building weapons makes me want to put plasteel/diamantine mods on my fuckin curios

#

If there was even a mod for that, I forgot

coarse birch
#

just ordos iirc

old badger
#

yeah just dockets u right

south folio
coarse birch
#

hey

#

it worked

#

didnt it

old badger
coarse birch
#

that was before i added tac axe to it

coarse birch
#

i did 500k damage i swear it functioned

royal vortex
#

i would run all +plasteel/+ordos

coarse birch
#

ignore that team was just me and arco basically

royal vortex
#

this was the scoreboard from the game where i spent the entire commsplex mid event

#

in a fucking TORRENT of shotgunners

old badger
#

These are my curios rn

coarse birch
#

oh yeah

#

you were farming

royal vortex
#

dude

south folio
royal vortex
#

i didnt even wanna be there

old badger
#

wait why the fuck did I put block efficiency on one of those

royal vortex
#

they just didnt stop spawning

#

i would swap at least a couple of those toughness regen speeds to gunner res

#

esp if ur running marty

coarse birch
old badger
coarse birch
#

yeah gunner res is nice for when you get gunner walled into turbo cringe knockback and die

#

well

#

if you die it wont help

old badger
#

At least to me it feels like TWBS makes it impossible to really get suppressed

royal vortex
#

twbs makes me take more gunner damage because i forget they are an enemy that hurts people

coarse birch
#

but itll make you less likely to die

royal vortex
#

and i will stand there lining up a tknife throw

old badger
#

I've gotten like

coarse birch
#

if they gave everyone TWBS baseline

old badger
#

weirdly good at quickdrawing and clicking heads

coarse birch
#

i would be so happy

old badger
#

I'm slowly becoming the sweaty zealot main

#

Soon I will solo auric damnation inshallah

dense field
#

Having no twbs is miserable

royal vortex
#

arco did they fuck with exe stance making you immune to ranged knockback

south folio
#

i think

#

so

#

i saw a reddit post about that

old badger
royal vortex
#

i swear to GOD it was fucking me up so hard today

#

i would pop it expecting a bailout

#

and then the gunner continues to slide me across the floor

coarse birch
#

yeah i think its just suppression

south folio
#

you still had stun immunity right

dense field
royal vortex
#

i think so

south folio
#

so i suppose that the ranged pushback and the stun immunity are two separate things

coarse birch
#

so it just moves you lol

#

that makes too much sense

royal vortex
#

it kept pushing me

old badger
#

wait, waitwaitwait
being immune to suppression does keep you from getting ultra slowed down right?

frozen glen
#

suppression is just the screenshake

royal vortex
#

suppression is the thing that fucks with your aim

frozen glen
#

when u aim

south folio
#

nah suppression is when your gun sways around when enemies are shooting at you

#

stun/stagger is the thing that slows you/interrupts your anims

old badger
#

bruh
I was so excited to get the suppression immunity talent on my veteran when I respecc'd my talent tree, and since I barely play vet I hadn't gotten into a gunner wall of boolets

#

And now I find out that the entire reason I was so excited about speccing that talent was for naught

south folio
#

you should've played some time ago

coarse birch
#

suppression immunity is still very good

south folio
#

because there was a very very funny bug with vet

fading vale
#

I mean, it's a great talent

frozen glen
#

thy grenades be swift

south folio
#

where Grenade Tinkerer gave you the exact same effect that TWBS did

frozen glen
#

what a time it was

fading vale
#

especially on certain weapons

old badger
#

Yeah I run GRENADES APLENTY on my vet

fading vale
#

like bolter

coarse birch
#

bolter needs it

#

obv

old badger
#

With how many grenades I output, my vet is basically an AC-130

fading vale
royal vortex
#

bolter needs it unless ur super confident in ur ability to chain exe stance on gunners

#

if ur doin like shout or stealth its mandatory obvs

fading vale
#

does exe give suppression immunity

royal vortex
#

yes

old badger
#

Darktide is like the single game that I have really really good aim in

coarse birch
#

p sure

#

yeah

old badger
#

I suck at every other FPS but I'm weirdly good at darktide in general

#

It makes no sense to me especially since I never played L4D2 and sucked at VT2

fading vale
#

man I haven't had good aim for like 12 years

old badger
#

It may also just be I think I'm good because randos suck

#

lmfao

coarse birch
#

idk how good my aim is

south folio
#

the revolvers also have bullet magnetism

coarse birch
#

i base my aim of like good siege players

#

so mines mid

south folio
#

they're one of the two guns that have it on PC

fading vale
#

I mean I'm probably still above average but I ain't what I used to be

coarse birch
#

however in darktide terms its probably above average

old badger
#

I have good aim with the bolter and lasgun as well

#

so idk

fading vale
#

when I played thousands of hours of the same game

royal vortex
#

dt enemies move fairly predictably as well

old badger
#

The only "guns" I have had trouble aiming with is the staves because I never used them enough to get used to their travel time

royal vortex
#

/some are completely stationary

south folio
#

my aim has degraded from a year of playing psyker

coarse birch
#

yeah the game doesnt usually ask you to make the craziest shots which helps

royal vortex
#

a lot of the time unless something bizarre happens you can read enemy move patterns pretty well

coarse birch
#

compared to like

#

CS

royal vortex
#

and map knowledge will help you line up shots

fading vale
#

I stopped gaming much and doing pvp when I went to college and it's been downhill from there

coarse birch
#

really

royal vortex
#

my tendency to mald at video games and pvp do not go well together

coarse birch
#

ive gamed much more in college

royal vortex
#

the last pvp shooter i played was tf2 with a pocket medic buddy

fading vale
#

I somehow made friends in college and spent less time gaming

coarse birch
#

i enjoy and dont enjoy PVP

#

at the same time

royal vortex
#

u will never guess what class i mained

coarse birch
#

i like competing but its awful for my mental health

fading vale
#

yeah I just gave it up because

royal vortex
#

the lows of losing are very oftentimes worse than the highs of winning games i get invested in

fading vale
#

#1 I'm never gonna play enough to meet my standards

#

and #2 I hate dumb bullshit and get really pissed off

coarse birch
#

i can put up with BS generally

#

but yeah ill never meet my standards

#

and it really stressed me out

lusty turtle
#

haven't properly played a pvp shooter since BF4

fading vale
#

I get so mad about things I deem as low or no skill

old badger
#

Until Death + TWBS has given me some crazy fucking plays

coarse birch
#

like when i was competing in smash i tried to maintain practicing every day and it just turning into a cycle of compete > learn what to improve on > work on it all week > repeat

#

it became a job essentially

old badger
#

My only complaint about Holy Revenant is that it gives me too much health sometimes

fading vale
#

how is 25% too much

coarse birch
#

and i now get very little satisfaction out of gaming now unless im doing some crazy hard shit

old badger
royal vortex
#

very sad

old badger
#

^

#

I run marty

#

Every match begins with me hunting down explosive barrels

fading vale
#

ok and are we still acting like being at 1 wound on marty is the best way to play it

old badger
#

yes

south folio
#

the terrible days of when holy rev used to heal up to 100% and was on a 90s cooldown

royal vortex
#

i play 0 wound marty. i am drawing aggro

coarse birch
#

dude old holy rev

royal vortex
coarse birch
#

was so funny

south folio
#

it's 120s now iirc

coarse birch
#

i would just go hit a horde for 2 seconds with hsword

#

full health

old badger
#

120s yeah

fading vale
coarse birch
#

i would proc until death if i was low on purpose cause holy rev was such a free heal

coarse birch
#

some people get egos

#

and its annoying

old badger
# royal vortex i play 0 wound marty. i am drawing aggro

I don't understand how ppl play marty and just let it buff them naturally as they get damaged, the difference from 0 stacks to 7 stacks is absolutely night and day and I don't feel like I get damaged often enough for it to be useful if I played it that way

coarse birch
#

or they literally know nothing outside of smash and it turns them into like people who cant function

royal vortex
#

they increased the until death cooldown and i didnt even know

#

what da hell

coarse birch
#

in a social environment

#

tbf your probably not procing until death super often josho

royal vortex
#

dude

coarse birch
#

i didnt realize either

royal vortex
#

i dont read talents

#

i was talking to crab about bolter builds

fading vale
# coarse birch i didnt mind my community

see like I said I hate bullshit and well, in a casual setting I didn't get good enough to deal with the bullshit characters and what not so I ended up hating everyone for abusing bullshit when people suck, that and one of my friends decided to constantly practice Simon for locals and stuff

royal vortex
#

and he said "... with the reload speed on marksman..." and i was like

#

"marksman gets reload speed?"
