oh ya they're both crushers

i just like making it look like a thunder hammer cuz it makes it more satisfying to hit things with it

soo which crusher should i use or does it just not matter

damage, pen, and crowd control most important, you can dump defenses and power output is good for your activated attacks

So which should I use 😭

Whichever your heart desires

#

You could make the first one elites+something so you have two different crushers for whatever mood you're feeling rather than the same exact weapon, otherwise keep on trucking on with 2

Just get the talent that stops gunners from staggering you instead

sterile basalt
fair igloo
#

couldn't u use thy wrath be swift or the charge to close in on gunners and stuffff?

sinful widget
#

Or just dodge slide over to them

hollow mantle
#

I ended up with a nice agri that had to keep terrifying barage and so I have been testing it out in matches. I actually dont really mind it with stripped down. If the idea is you are sprinting up to a huge gunline and then unload then it has actually done a lot more for me than hit and run has when I tried that. It makes everything stop shooting you and look away when you kill 1 thing. will suppress reapers, the gunners, and thats all you need really. It will make a noticable difference in the amount of bullets raining down from their position, and as you keep mowing them down they never recover.

Though aside from that one situation its pretty useless. But it does make space better than anything else in that situation I have found. You can slide around killing all of the gunners and do it, but they will still be shooting your teammates or you and possibly getting chip damage in between your slides and stuff. you can just clear stuff really fast with it like that because it makes them hunker down in place or run for cover

#

When you are a zealot and want to be in the middle of them anyway I can see it having more use than like, a vet whose not right in the middle of the bullshit all the time. But just my 2 cents from playing with it for a bit

#

It saves your charge for other situations that way. But still playing more with it to decide if its really decent or just less bad than terrible

im trying to see the pros of using a combat axe over the tactical axe. i feel the tactical axe stronger due to its higher attack speed. anyone have any tips to use the combat axe more efficiently

Lights for most things, heavies on ogryn/bosses, thats about it for combat axe

#

Headtaker bm

#

Dont touch the achlys

i must be using the combat axe wrong then. with the tactical axe, i always get top damage

#

but with the combat axe, its the opposite

#

Don't use crit build, also

ahh

#

i use crit build for tact axe

#

im guessing momentum for combat?

north sedge

so just blaze away, and a free slot for whenever it gets fixed

# mint imp i must be using the combat axe wrong then. with the tactical axe, i always get t...

combat axe has better range than taxe and when you build it right will be oneshotting a lot of things. you can do shred/brutal momentum for the crit build but its not as good as going momentum or martyrdom and headtaker/brutal momentum. With sustained assault and headtaker at max stacks and a halfway decent stat roll and +flak +maniac/unyielding you will be killing almost everything with one light attack and the 2/3 things behind it. Chunks bosses well, does good against cara with chastise, is just an all around solid weapon. but hitting those 1shot breakpoints is pretty big to get the most out of brutal momentum. If you end up close on shotgunners or something then a push attack will get a little damage on a group and your next hit should do the trick.

Its not as reliable for groups of ragers as like, heavy sword can be, since the punishment talent doesn't trigger with it as much as the naturally high cleave weapons, but it will stagger them 1 on 1 pretty well. Using chastise to stagger them after a few hits and then again after a few hits usually deals with them pretty well though.

As far as weaknesses go its a small one compared to the weaknesses that other generalist weapons have. Its kill potential is just insane when you hit the breakpoints. Momentum gives you more mobility and has sustained assault at the top of it, and martyrdom hits the breakpoints easier after a few stacks and the extra attackspeed works great with the weapon since it won't cleave as much as other weapons. But with the atk speed the hordeclear speeds up tremendulously. Mix in a couple push attacks and you can control any horde with it.

Sometimes a heavy attack will kill a scab gunner in 1 hit when it would otherwise take 2 lights. Though its rare that it matters a ton.

Caxe goes with almost any ranged weapon, columns for the disgusting rpm. Bolter for when you need a lot of big things dead quickly

fleet zealot

i'd say bolter is unneeded

#

since caxe can punch armor easily

there's bulwarks at least

# mint imp any prefered ranged weapon with good synergy? i was thinking the flamer

Zarona revolver probably pairs best for like, definitive all answers. Braced auto/bolter can still be useful for ranged boss deleting and safer answers to crushers/bulwarks/armor wave and braced autos will do rapid ranged deletion quickly as well up close/answer sudden threats. Zarona revolver will probably complement the most though with the cleave and its instant draw to nail the trapper/dog through the horde/elites. Its meta right now for a reason and its just very fucking good at what it does, and while it wont kill bosses real fast your Caxe will do the job just fine.

Kantreal shotty is a great mention too. Better for martyrdom I think since it doesn't benefit from momentum as much as other things. But having that 2/3 special shot answer to however many bulwarks come running around the corner is nice, and you can do respectable boss dps from afar if you put a few fire shells into it to help out your buddies. 2 fire shots should kill snipers if you wing them with both so the burn ticks them down.

Momentum does fantastic with the braced autos and columnus IAG with the attackspeed and damage increases. Shredder autopistol too really, still think its decent with blaze away inspiring/pinning fire

I know the laspistol is good but cant speak much to it myself. Havent tried it out as much as other stuff.

Flamer is great but really only if you are running fury, and not sure it benefits at all really from momentum for what it does. But I could be wrong there. And youd want throwing knives probably for quick ranged target deletion and the quick pull, same as the bolter since they both take an imperial year to pull out.

# naive star I just switched my Rashad from martyr to crit https://darktide.gameslantern.com/...

Thats looking a lot like what I tend to run or was for a long time. if I was doing shred/bromentum then it would be that straight up. For headtaker/bromentum Ill not do piety and instead drop duelist as well to get enough points to go down momentum and just grab inebriates poise. Its a build you can swap heavy sword into as well with just a few swaps, but heavy sword will synergize with crit a lot better and the natural cleave

misty mason

I run Bromentum decimator on my piety Zealot to great success

#

Headtaker should be fine

I do run it with Flak/crit though so I am a bit weird in that regard

#

thats good to know

You can one-mag a crusher with just about any gun with FotF

#

Bolter goes from one mag per crusher to 3

#

if you're inclined to go that route

calm salmon
#

yeah or flamer

#

flamer works

spare talon
#

my flamer isnt really that good since i never took the time to make a great one, never use it

this is also why its flak ADMs were nerfed

#

But it had its flak adms nerfed anyway

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

fleet zealot
#

i'm just gonna believe it's the steam escaping their armor in jets making propulsion

sacred vessel
calm salmon
#

another reason why I've given up on crafting

calm salmon
#

fatshark obliterated it

#

and I was left hanging because all of mine have SI locked in

#

and shattering impact is just unmitigated dogshit on guns now

sacred vessel
spare talon
calm salmon
sacred vessel
#

thats why cavalcade is on mine

calm salmon
#

I dunno

#

it takes 4 hits to get max stacks

#

I forget the exact numbers

#

which is why SI is so bad now. By the time you get max stacks the thing is dead already

#

and there's also plasma gun that basically just outright doesn't need SI anyway because you can two-shot a crusher baseline

misty mason
#

To be clear, it doesn't downgrade armour, it downgrades armour damage reduction

#

So carapace stops as much damage as flak etc

calm salmon
#

yes, +flak/+carapace perks still buff your damage as expected with FotF

#

but you're rolling on the flak/ua table instead

misty mason
#

So carapace damage boost still boosts carapace damage when you chastise

sacred vessel
calm salmon
#

Or volatile and blaze away

#

but yes

sacred vessel
#

the new one is on the left

calm salmon
#

volatile just means you can out-compete revolver mains

eh they're equal for all intents and purposes

fleet zealot
#

deathblow is for elite killing

#

rampage is for horde clear

sacred vessel
#

i want both

fleet zealot
#

I think deathblow is just better high end

#

then take deathblow

#

cause hsword htaker+ rising conviction already mulches hordes faster than some weapons top end

LIGHT SHOT? CHARGED SHOT? WHO GIVES A SHIT

#

100 CLEAVE

calm salmon
#

it should have 10 cleave

#

and zero finesse under 60% charge

royal vortex
#

i get disappointed that all the pub plasma vets i get are not removing my enjoyment from the game

misty mason
#

The build for the pee pee gun:

calm salmon
#

so a headshot and a body shot does the same damage

royal vortex
#

u have a reputation to live up to BROS cmon

calm salmon
#

so to get giga damage, players would be forced to charge it

#

and interact with the charge mechanic

fleet zealot
#

maybe fatshark had like,

calm salmon
#

instead of this stupid ass shit that's just "spam mouse 1"

fleet zealot
#

a memo that said make the sci fi weapons more played

#

and they just giga buffed the plasma to S+ tier

sharp zodiac
#

Yeah it is odd both charge attacks get 100 cleave

calm salmon
#

yeah, even 10 would be brainded OP

#

100 cleave is fucking unreasonable

sharp zodiac
#

The only reason the heavy charge exists is for the healthier guys but other than that there's no other reason than to light charge spam at this point

#

And then there's the auto quell too

calm salmon
#
    1. Remove all finesse modifiers under 60% charge. This way critical hits and headshots do the same as normal body shots when the weapon uses a light attack. This forces players to interact with the charge mechanic to reach one-shot breakpoints
    1. Give the plasma gun another magazine in reserve now that players are interacting with the 9 ammo cost charge mechanic.
    1. Reduce cleave to 4 on light attacks and 10 on 100% charge
#

this fixes the plasma gun while still keeping it good.

royal vortex
#

plasma is just terribly uninteresting compared to what i expect from it

#

the gun is in no way dangerous to use nor am i really considering its limitations when i use it

calm salmon
#

This is why I have point 1 listed there.

royal vortex
#

the actual gameplay feels almost indistinguishable from using a lasgun except i stop shooting for a second sometimes

calm salmon
#

now players HAVE to deal with the "whoops I've turned myself into a hand-grenade" aspect of it

#

adding risk to the reward

royal vortex
#

i would never want to do something weird like gate a middling finesse modifier behind the charge

#

they just need to separate the damage breakdowns on the left and right click

calm salmon
#

middling

#

dude

#

its over 4000 damage on carapace

#

in no way is that middling

#

you can light attack osbp crushers

#

3 ammo and a crusher is dead

royal vortex
#

i do not believe that for a second

#

this is a charged shot vs unyielding

#

as u can see that is not a particularly outstanding finesse increase

little thicket
#

Do you want these changes from a balance or design perspective?

royal vortex
#

crit/weakspot is 50%

calm salmon
#

You're not accounting for perks and talent tree

royal vortex
#

roughly

#

puri u KNOW how finesse increases are calculated

calm salmon
#

What I'm leaving out is that the osbp is carapace perk related

south folio
#

1.3x crit/weakspot and 1.5x crit weakspot

#

is eh

calm salmon
#

and most people want maniac/elites

royal vortex
#

that's like shittier than recons isnt it

south folio
#

maybe

calm salmon
#

or maniac/unarmored for the more reliable dreg gunner osbp

royal vortex
#

in no way do i believe you're getting 4k cara damage on a left click

calm salmon
#

without needing to do weird things to their talent tree

royal vortex
#

im pretty sure i have an 80/80 plasma with +carapace

slate owl
calm salmon
#

but also 🧂

#

because the new skill trees do a lot of heavy lifting

slate owl
#

yeah true

#

and i have doubts that the calculations for damage ups is straightforward

#

or has somebody compiled a formula somewhere?

calm salmon
#

damage is additive, power is additive.

#

Damage x power is multiplicative

#

as in, its just damage+damage+damage

and

power+power+power

and

damage x power

#

IIRC

fading vale
#

well, probably better to say damage adds to itself but multiplies total damage

#

and same with power

#

and they multiply against eachother

fleet zealot
#

Okay so crazy thought

#

I want next crusher variant to be fire activation

#

activated sweep like vt2 flame sword, overhead activated creating a flame blast

#

Or like showstopper

coarse birch
#

was this just an excuse to send this image

sharp zodiac
#

I wouldn't blame them

#

Goes hard

#

American region chat is weird

coarse birch
#

yeah that looks like every game chat ive been in

sharp zodiac
#

For some reason they really like talking about femboys

#

Reminds me of another chat similar to that

coarse birch
#

am i forgetting something

#

or do i not want to know

sharp zodiac
#

Zel chat

#

The joke is zel chat

coarse birch
#

ok

#

i was wondering if i was overthinking it

sharp zodiac
#

Not wearing my deep thought cap today

coarse birch
#

ill keep that in mind

sharp zodiac
#

I wear 8 caps

coarse birch
#

i will also keep that in mind

#

do you ever wear multiple caps

sharp zodiac
#

Hm

#

Never thought about it

#

But sometimes it feels like a deep thought day and a hungry day

#

So sometimes

fleet zealot
#

I found the image after i thought of the idea

coarse birch
#

does hungry cap mean you are always hungry

sharp zodiac
#

Yes

#

It fucking sucks

coarse birch
#

does this mean you dont eat on days you dont wear the hungry cap

royal vortex
#

tarrare

coarse birch
#

tarrare indeed

sharp zodiac
#

Unironically the idea of always being hungry terrifies me

coarse birch
#

yeah would def be unpleasant

#

i have had days where i felt like i ate too much

#

but i was hungry

royal vortex
sharp zodiac
#

Most I ate was a bacon wrapped meat.. thing

#

Look idk what it was all ik was it was beef

coarse birch
#

like the most youve eaten at once

sharp zodiac
#

Oh no

#

Most I've eaten have been two very large pretzels

#

Like the kind at restaurants that are HUGE

coarse birch
#

like soft pretzels

sharp zodiac
#

Yes

coarse birch
#

those are good

sharp zodiac
#

And I was still hungry

coarse birch
#

havent had one in a while

#

do you eat fairly consistently

#

like not skipping meals

sharp zodiac
#

No

sturdy knoll
sharp zodiac
#

I'm dangerously underweight as my doctor puts it

coarse birch
#

cause i get the thing you are describing

#

sometimes

#

and i dont eat 3 meals a day or anything

#

idk if im dangerously underweight but i am underweight

sharp zodiac
#

Usually I just eat one big meal or something to get me full then call it a day

#

It varies in time

coarse birch
#

i forget my exact weight

#

but ik its below 160 which is what im supposed to be given i am like 6'2

sharp zodiac
#

Likewise, mine was in freedom translation 132

#

I'm 183cm

#

6'0

#

But I did gain some weight by 30

coarse birch
#

ah yeah

#

that is a little low

#

its good you gained some weight at least, i know that sort of thing can affect energy levels

sharp zodiac
#

Yeah

coarse birch
#

might not be helping your on and off appetite but i get it

#

since i do the same thing

sharp zodiac
#

That and I'm a picky eater

#

So that also affects my meals

coarse birch
#

oh yeah that wont help

#

ill kinda just eat w/e

sharp zodiac
#

It's odd because sometimes it does become a eat w/e, then sometimes it's picky

#

Like an on and off

#

It's odd

coarse birch
#

does it depend on how hungry you are

sharp zodiac
#

Hm, haven't thought about it like that tbh

#

Probably

coarse birch
#

like esp if you are skipping meals

#

at some point what it is will matter less to you

#

esp if its more convenient to eat the thing you like less

sharp zodiac
#

Yeah that seems about right

#

It does taste a lot stronger too

#

Maybe that's why I just don't care and just consume

coarse birch
#

yeah i know what you mean

sharp zodiac
#

But at least it wasn't like the time I did this but with water

#

That

#

Was bad

coarse birch
#

yeah thats very bad

#

esp if you werent drinking other fluids

#

in its place

sharp zodiac
#

I think I was drinking coffee

#

A lot more than I do now

calm salmon
coarse birch
#

coffee is probably not a great replacement lol

sharp zodiac
#

Yeah absolutely

#

I did cut back tho

coarse birch
#

not that you dont know that

sharp zodiac
#

That and wine I've just stopped

coarse birch
#

thats good given it was problematic

sharp zodiac
#

No more drunken mishaps

coarse birch
#

well good stuff on dropping that

#

ik a lot of people have a hard time

sharp zodiac
#

It was tricky, had a friend help me with it, as we took it slowly via cutting down

#

Instead of stopping outright

coarse birch
#

thats the best way to do it

#

a lot of people have a hard time just full stopping something

#

doing it slowly gives your body more time to adjust to the lowered amounts

#

till its fine without it

sharp zodiac
#

Precisely

coarse birch
#

or something like that

#

im not a doctor

sharp zodiac
#

Neither am I

#

For humans

royal vortex
#

im a licensed phrenologist

coarse birch
#

i should probably sleep i am tired

fading vale
#

hi tired

coarse birch
#

but i always feel bad ending convos

#

hi laz

sharp zodiac
#

The dilemma

#

Usually I make up an elaborate excuse like a fan fell on my head

royal vortex
coarse birch
#

tbf going to bed at like

#

2 am isnt bad for me

#

this would actually be early

sharp zodiac
#

Anyways I think my fan is going to crash onto my head

coarse birch
#

but i have been sleeping at 7 am recently

coarse birch
#

enjoy not talking in discord

sharp zodiac
#

Likewise

coarse birch
#

or w/e it is you will go do

coarse birch
#

but im too tired to play with randos

plush raptor
#

me personally
i just woke up

royal vortex
#

i rolled this for my deadshot vet this morning

coarse birch
#

what on earth are you cooking

royal vortex
#

deadshot = no stam

coarse birch
#

i see

royal vortex
#

all or nothing good at no stam

#

with 3 all or nothing stacks i one shot push attack a rager

#

which solves the "oh my god this one guy is fucking my shit up and i cant swap to exe stance" problem

coarse birch
#

how much stagger can you apply reliably without stam

royal vortex
#

u only need 3 stacks

#

i have baseline +4 stam from node + curio

coarse birch
#

ah ok

#

going for something specific

royal vortex
#

at 4 bars i have 3 stacks

coarse birch
#

no uncanny shovel sounds so cursed

#

but this at least like

#

makes sense

#

on paper

royal vortex
#

its literally a bolter only melee

coarse birch
#

bolter bash into shovel lol

royal vortex
#

i use it for horde clear which is primarily unarmored/infested and the odd rager

#

also the mk7 has a p nice push attack l3 l4 combo

coarse birch
#

yeah i like the mk7

royal vortex
#

i dont know if i like making the shovel pullout slower as the balancing mechanism

#

(on the heavy)

coarse birch
#

yeah me either

royal vortex
#

but at least the two shovels feel more meaningfully distinct than the ogryn ones

coarse birch
#

it makes it hard to fight mauler packs

#

cause even tho i one shot them

#

i just get stuck for 5 seconds

royal vortex
#

ok actually this idea doesnt work on scab ragers

#

do i need uncanny for this

coarse birch
#

im assuming your running like precision strikes

royal vortex
#

yea

coarse birch
#

you might need uncanny then

royal vortex
#

this build is 100% point investment into the bolter and nothing else

coarse birch
#

or thrust

south folio
#

u sick fuck

royal vortex
#

the point was to use the push attack

#

because it doesnt have the endlag

coarse birch
#

oh i see

calm salmon
#

you either have a knife or a club

coarse birch
#

im dumb

calm salmon
#

even if the club is actually a shovel, its actually just a club

royal vortex
royal vortex
#

im half tempted to drop ET for the 0.25 stam regen delay node

fading vale
#

maybe you should phone home

calm salmon
#

+1

royal vortex
#

fk

#

uncanny just makes this easier

calm salmon
#

uncanny is just good, turns out

royal vortex
#

do i have an uncanny skullcrusher mk 7

calm salmon
#

who doesn't love +120% rending or whatever it is

#

ikik rending is capped to 100% because fatshark cannot into good game design

royal vortex
#

the pain of rolling the vet equivalent to the thammer

calm salmon
#

its just not fun, rewarding, or engaging.

#

I. . . don't know if I could come up with a better system, but what I do know is that this current iteration is just bad.

royal vortex
#

i think at the minimum you can make the existing implementation less cancer to work with

#

tightening up the brunt's/melk rating band and shifting some of the plasteel costs on consecrate to diamantine would be a good start

#

just stuff that makes u less waste time on bottlenecks

north sedge

A new hammer

night path

oh : (

north sedge
#

First target is a dmg modifier, shouldn't be dumped

night path
#

gotcha, good to know for the future.

north sedge
#

Otherwise you want thrust slaughterer, unyielding flak/elite/cara

#

Headtaker is good too instead of slaughterer

#

Either one

#

But thrust necessary

Gotcha, thanks for the advice!
