I miss Morrigan

Morrigan and Shart are bae

I did not vibe with Shart but I am 41 so

Is this game dead?

polar nexus
#

no

novel heath
#

I haven't played since Christmas and it looks like there's been no major updates

polar nexus
#

it's fatshark

novel heath
#

Love it

south folio
#

you can find comfort in the fact that this is just fatshark pace

This is just reminiscent of past year's drought

Guys what the current zealot meta build

boreal cedar
oak ermine
#

There is "none", Zealot has at least a couple of good, competitive builds that don't really outweight one another

drowsy steppe
#

Zealots got a good selection of viable weapons

oak ermine
#

I for instance play something like Mk2 Evis and Bolter, and throwing knives, with Inexorable Judgement keystone

south folio
#

i'm currently on the bolter piety chainsword grindset

drowsy steppe
#

Arcowo playing zealot unironically?

south folio
#

ye i have a newfound passion for zealot

fair igloo
#

chastise + anti armor gun + everything else melee is so fun

south folio
#

it started out as playing knife zealot for roomba-ing during premades

#

then i learned of the FORBIDDEN KNOWLEDGE about chswords from exhillious so i'm currently at that stage

drowsy steppe
#

You're on the 2nd stage of the zealot pipeline

#

It's all a non straight line from here

south folio
#

a downward line

#

zealot also feels pretty comfy for me in pubs for not dying to anything besides to disablers

#

at least with vet, i occasionally got caught out doing stupid stuff involving maulers and crushers

drowsy steppe
#

I still struggle to play against Ragers in melee

south folio
#

yeah they are very poopoo in melee

#

at least with the crit chainsword build i'm running, i can spam chastise and have enduring faith for 50% tdr to tank them

#

i also just sometimes bolter them if i don't have my ult up cuz i'm not risking that

royal vortex
#

i report the ragers for saying racial slurs and get them all banned from the match

it's 1 with maniac on your weapon

bitter yoke
royal vortex
#

ur blessings do too

boreal cedar
fading vale
#

held weapon perks and stuff effect it

boreal cedar
#

i mean ur ranged weapon

royal vortex
boreal cedar
#

i might put maniac or my bolter if it does

#

prob gonna do maniac flak

fading vale
#

yes it's your held weapon

frozen glen
#

flak maniac is so underrated

bitter yoke
royal vortex
boreal cedar
#

ill probably replace my carapace buff for maniac then

boreal cedar
#

you can replace a edited perk without it taking another edit slot right

bitter yoke
royal vortex
#

overheads have super short dodge catches too so you can literally just dodge on the right timing and not care about distance

fading vale
#

anything already edited can be changed indefinitely

fading vale
#

one could argue crushers shouldn't do the cha cha slide but they do

bitter yoke
# royal vortex yup

you recokon it's doable with around 100 ping?, might just run a couple to try

royal vortex
#

i do it with ~70 consistently

royal vortex
#

but the game's netcode is terrible so you will run into issues where you dodge correctly and the game rolls it back

fading vale
#

ha 100 ping is good....

#

this games netcode is not so great

royal vortex
#

if u watch the dodge counter here it pulls me back into the bursters

#

cant do nothin about it

boreal cedar
#

shrimp issue

boreal cedar
royal vortex
#

nah if the game reverts your dodge it doesn't matter what you do

boreal cedar
#

hammer my beloved

royal vortex
#

because it resets your location

#

also generally easier to dodge backwards

boreal cedar
#

why bother dodging when i can just mash space and heavies

fading vale
#

you have no idea how bad the netcode was like idk 6 months ago

oak ermine
fading vale
#

but they did some kind of cheat "fixes" for bursters and dogs

royal vortex
#

i shouldve been ready

fading vale
#

and no regs are less common but they still happen all the damn time

boreal cedar
#

what armor types are scab captains btw

#

unyielding ?

royal vortex
#

flak

fading vale
#

carapace and flak

#

oh

#

twins have cara heads

royal vortex
#

the twins have like

#

3 armor types

fading vale
#

captain is flak

royal vortex
#

iirc

#

and a bunch of weird damage modifiers on hard mode

boreal cedar
#

i still need to do damnation twin

drowsy steppe
bitter yoke
#

last thing then i'll leave you in peace, what is the % treshold on dmg and stability for a bolter that makes it not worth rolling, is like 78% borderline acceptable? cause i heard below that you don't get you breakpoints to kill bulwarks/crushers

boreal cedar
#

weird thing is that i feel like my build does like no damage against captains

royal vortex
boreal cedar
#

i can deal like 80% of an monstrosity in a single hit but captains barely take like 10%

royal vortex
#

stability ur gonna have to mess around with to see what ur willing to put up with

fading vale
#

uh a hammer should be able to do around 30 or 40% damage to a captain on damnation last I checked

royal vortex
#

on vet u have like a shit ton of different stacking damage buffs on zealot generally the bolter is a hipfire magdump tool so you don't care too much

bitter yoke
boreal cedar
fading vale
#

you just need to chastise and headshot them, preferably a backstab

boreal cedar
#

can you stack headshots and backstabs

fading vale
#

also only use lights on their shield

#

yes

boreal cedar
#

would it be better to do a face headshot or a regular backstab with stealth

fading vale
#

also flak perk helps

boreal cedar
fading vale
#

with stealth a backstab and ideally a headshot

#

never ever run crit damage

#

never

boreal cedar
#

why nor

#

not

fading vale
#

it's not 10%

#

the math is really bad

boreal cedar
#

how much is it

fading vale
#

for a hammer you might get 3%

royal vortex
#

it is always lower than what you expect

#

it's 10% to the additional damage added by a crit rather than total damage when critting

boreal cedar
#

oh thats horrendous

royal vortex
#

so its bonus is relative to your crit modifier but it will never be 10%

fading vale
#

run flak unyielding on hammer

boreal cedar
#

also whats the difference between the club and the hammer

royal vortex
#

which is why all the blessing/talent weakspot/crit damage increases are a minimum of 25-30% besides BM which had the weakspot damage added purely to separate the tiers

#

do you mean "club" as in the crusher

boreal cedar
boreal cedar
fading vale
#

see pins for crusher guide

royal vortex
#

the crusher is less about the single target damage of the hammer and more of a generalist crowd control weapon

boreal cedar
royal vortex
#

crusher doesn't do bad into any targets but ur not dealing a shit ton of boss damage unless u get to 1v1 the boss and nobody else hits it

fading vale
#

I mean the guide tells you what the crusher does, it's not that long

ivory marlin
#

Crusher?

#

I barely know er

boreal cedar
#

i still need to try other melee on zealot

ivory marlin
#

Bleed knife

boreal cedar
#

all that changed about my build is me switching from slug shotgun to revolver to bolter

#

as soon as i got the hammer i only used that

#

im still surprised i never knew bolter had a full auto firing mode

#

i thought it was burst or semi exclusively

royal vortex
#

some of the guns in this game do not explain themselves to new players very well

frozen glen
#

its cuz they cant talk

boreal cedar
#

wasted like 800 plasteel

royal vortex
#

they let them talk in p17

frozen glen
#

wtf

ivory marlin
#

Hi red

frozen glen
#

greetings

south folio
ivory marlin
#

Arco

#

Whats your favorite psyker ā€œgrenadeā€

drifting wolf
#

rock

ivory marlin
#

Real

south folio
#

assail

#

cuz smite is boring, and brainburst is also boring

#

i can at least use assail in some mechanically interesting way

royal vortex
#

assail pays for my drug money

coarse birch
#

yeah assail is dum but i can use it in an interesting way with melee psyker

south folio
#

and is one of psyker's few things where i don't need to be sitting charging there

#

0.2s to throw the first shard out and 0.33s for the 2nd shard

coarse birch
#

yeah you can weave it pretty seamlessly into gameplay

#

which is my fav part

#

similar to tknives although can be used in more scenarios

royal vortex
#

i want a staff with a more generalist lmb or even one with a specialized role that fits better with melee/assail so u can actually play a proper mage dude without sitting there charging shit

coarse birch
#

yeah that would be nice

royal vortex
#

it does not have to be gun

#

but staff psyker is genuinely like one of the least input intensive things in the game

#

its ogryn tier atm

coarse birch
#

yeah staffs are not very complex past traumas initial learning curve with the aiming

#

surge ill use in one build but its like the least interactive thing

royal vortex
#

voidstrike is a projectile weapon in a game filled with corridors and mostly linear pathing on top of gigantic cleave

coarse birch
#

and its also a large projectile

royal vortex
#

it has the appearance of being hard but most stuff runs in a straight line or stands still

coarse birch
#

yeah i dont really consider void being a projectile even a weakness

#

you are not aiming in even the same way a gun has to

boreal cedar
#

i tried void once and got bored

royal vortex
#

purg and surge staff are two opposites sides of the boring as hell coin

coarse birch
#

yeah i cant use void anymore

#

ill just take surge over it

boreal cedar
#

i like purge

coarse birch
#

if i need cara damage

boreal cedar
#

its fun with brain burst

#

i wish the zealot flamethrower was what purge was

#

its so bloody slow

royal vortex
#

none of the staffs require enough mechanical interaction or risk for me to really care

#

peril is incredibly free and none of them are complicated

coarse birch
#

at this point i dont find most psyker builds to really take that many risks

#

you can shit out so much DPS

#

i just happen to like their melee/assail more than a lot of stuff in the game so i run it

royal vortex
#

gunpsyker with ds4 at least does not have good crowd control outside of incidental assail shards

#

but u just outrun stuff anyways

coarse birch
#

yeah i just speed away with DD

#

and assail comes back fast enough

#

and idc about like crushers mixed in cause ds4

#

or deimos in my case

#

ill run knife every once in a while on psyker so i can feel somewhat not carried

#

cause i cant just one shot everything/knock it over

royal vortex
#

šŸ˜”

fading vale
#

peril used to be not free

coarse birch
#

i think thats one of my least favorite things about the balance atm, it feels hard to actually feel like i am getting through the mission due to knowing what i am doing and not X thing just beating the game for me

fading vale
#

and then they made it completely free

coarse birch
#

so then i go down and feel 100x worse

#

yeah peril is super w/e cause it quells so fast

coarse birch
#

sometimes im dumb and blow myself up cause im not paying attention (once a mission)

royal vortex
#

i trust in the fact that i win games with p much w/e loadout i choose unless it is supreme unbearable dogshit

#

peril atm is just a dead mechanic

#

like it doesn't do what its supposed to do

coarse birch
#

i have gotten through histg with taxe 2 and agri revo

#

ignore i ran assail

royal vortex
#

soulblaze application and peril management should be like

#

some of the cornerstones of psyker that are unique and cool

#

but soulblaze application is free and relatively non-conditional and peril management is so easy and hardly restrictive enough to matter unless you're not used to it

fading vale
#

do either of yall want to heckdive, idk if you've slept

coarse birch
#

i did sleep actually

royal vortex
#

i have slept a mighty 6 hours

#

i can dive

coarse birch
#

just woke up early and couldnt sleep again

frozen glen
#

arc shotgun mhgmhgmghmg

coarse birch
#

i can also heckdive

fading vale
#

gimme 10 minutes and I get on

royal vortex
coarse birch
oak ermine
royal vortex
coarse birch
#

purg is p uninteresting as is shriek/PC

#

despite being crazy

#

yeah trauma is dumb on its own

#

its like crusher where you can just not ever be in danger

fading vale
#

the issue is really the whole infinite scaling thing with how they have tuned the difficulty

oak ermine
#

Sienna was never a really popular class choice, largely because she had the confusing (I don’t believe that!) heat management system tied to her ranged abilities

royal vortex
#

and if it's bad it's just like, super meh

coarse birch
#

like that is so much reward for so little work

fading vale
#

the only thing keeping the flamer from being super overpowered is bulwark spam

#

which is another infinite scaling problem

royal vortex
#

because of their balancing choices regarding peril gen and quell time having a hard-hitting staff that does good aoe means you just completely demolish everything like with void

coarse birch
#

infinite cleave across the board i wouldnt mind seeing gone

royal vortex
#

infinite cleave on melees is significantly less problematic than ranged at least

#

because ranged weapons arent animation or damage profile limited

coarse birch
#

yeah i mind it a little less on melee although it makes you p safe

#

even like mk15 evis i feel very safe in melee cause even if im killing 4 things per swing im staggering an extra 7

fading vale
#

I'm not sure how you nerf the trauma cleave though

oak ermine
#

Make a target cap whatthefuck_heresy

coarse birch
#

yeah traumas weird, youd have to change the stagger or something

#

would prob be easier

fading vale
#

a target cap would feel bad

fresh sentinel
calm salmon
oak ermine
#

Epicentre does that somewhat already, but Blazing Spirit is one big elephant in the room

calm salmon
#

ranged enemies are your only threat with trauma staff

#

make em hurt psyker again

fading vale
#

pubs already melt to 2 bruisers

royal vortex
#

trauma staff should not be aoe stagger everything constantly: The Weapon

coarse birch
#

i moreso hate the stagger/CC on it ye

fading vale
#

yeah I guess you could nerf the stagger or radius but idk

calm salmon
#

i dont

coarse birch
#

its just another instance of pause the game

royal vortex
#

having a more cc oriented staff is fine but the roaching you get away with is absurd

calm salmon
#

it makes me invulnerable to melee enemies whatthefuck_heresy

fading vale
#

maybe nerf specifically the stagger radius?

royal vortex
#

it plays the game for you any time you get out of position

coarse birch
#

yeah the stagger radius

#

or make it so i cant knock back down shit as soon as it gets up

#

in the case of like crushers

frozen glen
#

bring back patch 1 trauma

fading vale
#

it should still stagger in the epicenter

calm salmon
#

80% peril for one charge whatthefuck_heresy

#

lets not

tropic terrace
royal vortex
#

even with the old peril gen quelling is significantly freer now

oak ermine
# calm salmon lets not

Modded players nerfed one of the VT2 staves by making it have obscenely high charge costs and lower uptime. It still was one of the more played options KEKW_ogryn

coarse birch
#

peril didnt feel like an issue even before to me honestly but we also had shriek

coarse birch
#

and BB is not particularly peril heavy

fading vale
#

the peril patch was like 12 months ago or something

royal vortex
frosty herald
#

Back to the useless trauma

boreal cedar
#

what is it with ppl talking about a class is the other class channel today

coarse birch
boreal cedar
#

had the same happen with zealot in ogryn chat lol

fading vale
#

everyone plays everything

#

and just sticks to their chat mostly

boreal cedar
#

i dont find it annoying i just find it funny

oak ermine
stuck vale
#

whys every build has blessed bullet curio? is there some difference behind curio names and appearances or just cosmetics?

boreal cedar
#

its just in servers id be in everyone would be immediatly nuked for it

oak ermine
#

Surge change was somewhat drastic, from what I remember in regard to forum posts and whatnot KEKW_ogryn

fading vale
#

ah, usually when people say that they start raging but it's pretty lax

royal vortex
coarse birch
#

talk about DT please

#

this is a DT server

south folio
#

yeah i'd tone down the epicentre of the trauma

fresh sentinel
south folio
#

and make it so that you have to actually aim it

royal vortex
#

the class chats are more divided by general community rather than being focused on the classes themselves just cuz thats how the server is

fresh sentinel
#

(it's still the best weapon in the entire game)

fresh sentinel
#

VT2 sienna situation is weird

oak ermine
#

It was made obscenely powerful in vanilla

fresh sentinel
#

she's the most powerful class undoubtably but no one plays her

#

and many people even think she's weak

#

ig OE gives a contender for most busted class now granted

oak ermine
#

That’s because playing around Sienna to her fullest extent is hard - team play is hard šŸ˜”

tropic terrace
#

Coruscation has been busted since the day it came out

fresh sentinel
#

she's really not that hard to play tho

oak ermine
fresh sentinel
#

have people really never used heat based weapons in an fps before

#

i thought a lot of people came in from DRG

tropic terrace
#

I think most just find her main gameplay with staves to be very boring

oak ermine
#

But she has a lot of powerful tools that go beyond the complexity of melee/ranged (or oneshotting a patrol with THT as Bardin, for that matter)

tropic terrace
#

by most I mean like, people with like under 50 hours

#

not exploring the other characters

fresh sentinel
#

dagger/fireball unchained is my main as far as sienna goes

#

ik i could run flail and coru but i dont care that shit boring

tropic terrace
#

true as fuck

#

I was a crowbill enjoyer, even when it had literally 0 cleave

fresh sentinel
#

dagger based it makes me go zoom zoom zoomies

tropic terrace
#

it did so much damage on Unchained builds that cleave didn't matter once you started oneshotting everything before maulers

#

and any groups were dealt with by beam staff

fresh sentinel
#

tbh i'm not sure how you could really nerf coru to reasonable levels

#

it feels like the idea of the staff is fundamentally broken

oak ermine
#

With how enemies work, and how one can exploit that, and how enemies tend to not avoid the fire at all? It was bound to be a disaster whatthefuck_heresy

#

Having map knowledge can also help immensely. You know where a horde will spawn - place a pyre there and half the horde is dead

tropic terrace
#

Coru makes horde clear a joke, fire is infinite stacking in vermintide right?

fresh sentinel
#

i mean there's also the fact that the fire lasts for like 10 years so you can just spam it everywhere like a lunatic and still be about as effective as someone placing them over every enemy spawn

#

probably why they did a heat nerf in modded

fresh sentinel
#

the infinite pierce is a bigger problem

oak ermine
fresh sentinel
#

fireball was my favorite staff so i was quite surprised to see it's considered meta in this game

#

gotta get that loner value

#

what do you mean i'm depriving the whole team of toughness regen? i'm using my talents lmao

nimble fiber
ornate bone
#

tbh, with how much toughness most players stack and how toughness regen is both a flat value and has a perk competing with the likes of toughness, health and gunner/sniper res, I don't really think one more person is going to make that sluggish regen anything gamechanging

#

Specially when the main sources of toughness are toughness talents and killing shit

fading vale
#

its not like anyone cares about coherency toughness regen

ornate bone
#

I think I have it on my loner zealot to squeeze regen out of the zooming, but it's the only actual instance in which I used it

fading vale
#

loner does supposedly make your team take more of the special spawns and stuff

obtuse stirrup
#

Tbh I like Loner now. It means instead of going 2/2 when you split you can do 3/1. You just have to not be one of those pricks that doesn't try to work with the team at all

#

being on the far side of the same room taking out the ranged elites and specials that are already engaged with the rest of the team is good

#

being four rooms ahead starting the midevent while your team is wading through everything you completely ignored is heretical

fading vale
#

I mean it doesn't really have anything to do with splitting 3 1 or 2 2

#

nobody needs coherency

lusty turtle
#

the only 2 noticeable coherency auras are corruption heal and ammo regen

ornate bone
#

While loner seems to tweak the specials a bit, I don't think it changes the 2/2 to 3/1

#

People still generally want someone watching their back and having 2 competent players together does the trick most of the time

fading vale
#

it just exists to save points and gen a small amount of toughness while stealthed

ornate bone
#

Not like loner makes the zealot entirely immune to getting disabled by specials

obtuse stirrup
#

It means you don't get the punishment squads right?

#

the way the game deliberately throws extra dogs, mutants, trappers and flamers at you if you're isolated or something

violet root
#

mreow

fading vale
obtuse stirrup
#

tbf I only heard that here

#

ok, so the punishment squads are redirected rather than extra?

#

makes sense

fading vale
#

cause it doesn't count you as being out of coherency

#

allegedly

lusty turtle
#

this is why i personally think stealth speedrunning needs to die

royal vortex
#

i have never run into a stealth speedrunner who did not just die within 3 minutes

#

it is a self solving issue

south folio
#

i had a game with an infiltrate stealth vet who just ran ahead and stealthed, resulting in the aggro just heading onto the other three of us

#

they were truly gaming

royal vortex
#

all of the ones i get have mental defects

obtuse stirrup
#

I've seen some good ones

drowsy steppe
#

we should segregate the good and the bad Ogryn iq players

obtuse stirrup
#

it's actually more miserable than when they're shit

ornate bone
#

A real based stealth vet gamer uses the aggro to get ez backstabs

south folio
#

being in a game with three other stealth players is also quite an experience

royal vortex
#

ive ran into 4

frosty herald
#

i am cry

obtuse stirrup
#

I just always try a votekick if they're being that egregious about it

lusty turtle
royal vortex
#

one was just trolling and didnt kill anything

#

one was trying to powerlevel a level 26 psyker so me and mankar left both of them dead after the archivum sycorax mid event until the end event

south folio
#

now, all 4 players need to drop before the interrogator prompt shows up

frosty herald
#

i am a respectable stealth knife zealot

royal vortex
#

one joined mid-mercantile, ran 30 meters ahead, got dogged, and left

#

and another started his personality disorder crusade at a boss spawn on vigil station oblivium and i had some choice words for him

obtuse stirrup
lusty turtle
#

by the time u get to the mid event hes at the end event

obtuse stirrup
#

that guy I managed to kick :)

royal vortex
lusty turtle
#

oh i know, but this dude is good AND a speedrunner

royal vortex
#

both times i saw people actually get far they were unmitigated dogshit and got all the aggro then died anyways

lusty turtle
#

like genuinly good, was great doin matches with him

royal vortex
#

its a super boring way to play the game too idk why people do it

south folio
#

SPEEDRUNNING and STEALTH

#

they're pro gamers

royal vortex
obtuse stirrup
#

It's fun for the person doing it I guess

#

it's just miserable for the others

royal vortex
#

i did this once and its like technically u can add more bs modifiers but it is super uninteresting

obtuse stirrup
#

there's solo mods for that shit

frosty herald
#

i love using stealth for objectives and revives

royal vortex
#

kite to the end and then if ur actually trying to clear stuff u flamer or kant flame spam

#

there's one variation of it that i think is genuinely funny but i gave up because it ends super quickly if you're too slow and thats playing stealth vet and trying to deal 0 damage

fading vale
#

stealth is good for objectives and revives but not for being a solo lord and detriment to team

#

but it's stealth so people are going to solo lord

frosty herald
#

I would never go away solo

lusty turtle

Dont mind that i got downed 2 minutes into a game

"you can thank me for speed running this map for you"

fading vale
#

like what are you playing for

lusty turtle
#

some people enjoy that, idk why, its why i think stealth should break on interacting with objectives

royal vortex
fading vale
#

if they enjoy it they are just wrong

royal vortex
#

this game doesn't have frequent enough content updates to warrant that level of farm

south folio
#

at least i'm fine with it since player power level is overtuned
but once the balance gets sorted out, i will probably start to get pissed at them

As a stealth zealot, I roll my eyes HARD every time I matchmake with a random one. I just know what’s coming next

I like doing objectives with stealth because it gives a "team" use to an ability many otherwise consider "selfish"

#

been having fun with the 3 second stealth that increases damage

its probably mid but eh

#

you also probably shouldn't get toughness DR while holding the interrogator lamayo

i dont care damage funny

royal vortex

It has versatility, which is something I value a lot in abilities

i can just tank a bunch of hits while doing the interrogator because of the stupid amount of DR you get

lusty turtle

because that's how long it takes me to get wiped out :)

no one will stop me on my warpath of killing cringe 😤

if you kill TWBS then make stagger a not global thing for every fucking enemy

oh wow I got hit by a poxwalker while trying to hammer a crusher fuck me I guess

frosty herald
#

"I will make the game less fun"

royal vortex
royal vortex
#

quite a bit of looking at

#

theres been quite a bit of damage tuning but nowhere near enough impact changes for how the game is

ornate bone

Deimos h2 preventing me from doing another h2 properly

lusty turtle

#

Agri 7 HH being a burst slug shotgun

little thicket
#

I think refusing to speedrun is why many here even keep enjoying playing zealot.

ornate bone
#

I think stagger already works like that, doesn't it?

#

You hit shit enough, eventually it folds

little thicket
#

Its literary handicapping the zealot in one of its strongest assets as a class.

fading vale
#

HD2 kind of also has a similar problem but it's not that big of a deal, it's just simply an unfun thing

ornate bone
#

But I think the stagger clears itself after a set amount of time

royal vortex
#

is just total bullshit

fading vale
south folio
#

stuff like suppression being a very binary on/off thing

lusty turtle
ornate bone
#

So you can't just spam knife lights on a crusher until it flops because from the first hit you dealth, there was already a recovery or somethign

south folio
#

and player stagger also interrupting you out of actions besidees your movement

fading vale
#

player suppression needs to be completely deleted

ornate bone
#

Oh, player stagger can get fucked

south folio
#

so if you're trying to swing and you take a ranged shot, boom you are no longer swinging

royal vortex
#

dodging/blocking exists to mitigate damage

#

but theres nothing for suppression

ornate bone
#

It's understandable for muh realism, but it's really annoying to be interrupted by any enemy in a horde game where your kill count reaches thousands

fading vale
#

oh hey 30 gunners shooting this way uh, cool

#

guess I can't aim half the weapons

royal vortex
#

the unfortunate world we live in is that gunners must do something

ornate bone
fading vale
#

well the core issue is 30 gunners should not be the difficulty spike

royal vortex
#

yea

fading vale
#

and they should do damage

royal vortex
#

i dont mind gunners having the ability to kind of area deny

ornate bone
#

Gunner suppression is interesting because that's kind of the point of the weapon

royal vortex
#

because a lot of maps have ways to get around the guy suppressing you because they have ratling gunner from VT2 ai

#

and will shoot walls n shit

#

instead of properly tracking you

fading vale
#

but also suppression just doesn't matter for a ton of the strongest things and it's just annoying for the others

ornate bone
#

But the game's horde nature giving you a shitload of enemies to fight against also needs the devs to analyze how the game works if it spawns too much of something

royal vortex
#

but there's nothing you can do to stop suppression or mitigate it, if you're suppressed you're just unable to hit stuff, etc

royal vortex
ornate bone
#

Suppressing enemies is kind of annoying

royal vortex
#

so yeah

#

it is

#

but it's gun specific

ornate bone
#

I want people to not suppress the reaper because then the head is easier to hit

fading vale
royal vortex
#

u CANNOT try to snipe gunners that are actively firing at you with a bolter on zealot

boreal cedar
royal vortex
#

unless you fire at their feet to stagger/suppress them

#

and this is a huge ammo waste

boreal cedar
#

i cant phrase it properly

ornate bone
#

I quit the MG12 partially because I can't do any fucking thing when suppressed

royal vortex
#

certain weapons legitimately just get turned off by gunners

fading vale
boreal cedar
#

i do play damnation exclusively tho

#

im gonna try it soon tho

south folio
#

i'm fine with the sway but the fact that suppression also adds spread to your ADS makes it so that you can't even counteract the suppression reliably

ornate bone
#

The MG12 getting entirely, 100% shut down by a single gunner is so fucking disgusting

boreal cedar
#

recently got all my classes to lvl 30

#

and im starting to have smth that looks like an actual build

fading vale
#

if you could counteract suppression then it would be tolerable

#

just something predictable

#

and not random bullshit

south folio
#

i have a similar gripe with the agri revolver having spread on the braced
should've been pinpoint accurate and then the inaccuracy moved into its recoil so that it becomes something that you can control

boreal cedar
#

maybe im not used to using proper aim weapons enough so i dont realise it

fading vale
#

people just don't use them cause it feels bad

#

and they aren't as strong as other options that don't have to deal with it

boreal cedar
#

the only weapons i use that requires proper aiming are the boltgun and the lasgun

fading vale
#

or you play vet and ignore suppression

boreal cedar
#

and i have suppression immunity on my lasgun

#

and i use knifes a lot

#

feels more comfy then pulling the slow ass bolter for 2 gunners or smth

south folio
#

the one thing i like about throwing knives is that it don't got any suppression

#

god bless

#

i chuck that shit at gunners all the time

boreal cedar
#

i like them cuz its instant

fading vale
#

agri revolver getting suppressed is a crime against humanity

boreal cedar
#

my only wish is that they wouldnt interrupt reloading

boreal cedar
#

god id kill someone for that

#

bolter hammer and knife is such a nice combo of weapons

#

i love it

#

its so fun

#

you just see any kind of specialist ennemies you can just say no fuck off press the g key and instantly kill them

fading vale
#

I find bolter with hammer on aurics to just not cut it with the density

south folio
boreal cedar
#

if theres too much stuff i dont understand i pull it out and magdump

royal vortex
south folio
#

bolter is my "fuck off bulwarks" weapon

#

i always run chastise so crushers wouldn't be an issue
but god I hate the game spawning patrols of >5 bulwarks

lusty turtle
#

every time i watch an arco clip his ui degrades another step

#

this is awful

boreal cedar
south folio
south folio
lusty turtle
#

ye cause i'm putting up with your bullshit 😤

fading vale
#

it's not like a bolter is gonna deal with a fuck ton of bulwarks and melee elites when you have a hammer so I have a hard time not taking fire nades

south folio
#

you're going to make a good lasagna

lusty turtle
#

mooooooods

royal vortex
#

i dont take immo nades out of the principle that playing with an infinite cleave kill everything button is actively making the game less enjoyable

south folio
#

i hate the nodes above immo nades so i don't take it

boreal cedar
#

and i love that they replenish on melee kill and ammo

royal vortex
#

i think the biggest buff the bolter needs is a bulwark stagger animation rework

south folio
#

and for some reason the weapons i enjoy on zealot favor crit builds so i always go top-right anyways

royal vortex
#

it is genuinely unacceptable that shooting bulwarks at the wrong angle makes them unable to be hit

boreal cedar
#

i dont like using nades most of the time so i can leave nade boxes to ppl who actually like them

royal vortex
#

because the stagger animation raises the shield to cover their entire side

fading vale
south folio
#

oh yeah anoint is so nice

royal vortex
#

the infested/unyielding damage is super meh

fading vale
#

like I'm never not taking anoint

royal vortex
#

anoint is mandatory pmuch

south folio
#

to me, second wind alone is worth the 4 point investment

boreal cedar
#

i need to minmax a bit more to reach 100% tho

fading vale
#

second wind is probably a bit too good

#

relatively

south folio
#

yeah it's 15% and on a 0.5s icd

#

it reaaalllly should not be 15%

boreal cedar
#

whats second wind again

royal vortex
#

the middle tree needs actual toughness regen options that arent just laughable

south folio
#

+15% toughness on dodge

#

it's so good for bosses and ranged patrrols

royal vortex
#

i want them to swap voice of terra and vicious offering

boreal cedar
#

i fail to realise how much i dodge tbh

south folio
#

scenarios where you might typically have problems with toughness regen

boreal cedar
#

its hard to tell

south folio
#

second wind fills in that gap and some more

#

should be killed down to 7.5% or 5%

royal vortex
#

its less good than u would think for ranged enemies a lot of the time because on-dodge stuff mostly doesnt work on gunners

fading vale
#

also if we are talking relative power then uh, duelist

royal vortex
#

since shooters are an endangered species

boreal cedar
south folio
#

yeah for pure gunners it's useless, though usually other enemies are around and the team is sniping the elites first

fading vale
#

dodging is dodging

south folio
#

i forgor
but sliding counts

royal vortex
boreal cedar
#

like Dodges

south folio
#

as fast as the animation lets you

royal vortex
#

it should be finesse

south folio
#

oh, sliding has no falloff

royal vortex
#

instead of both crit and weakspot damage

fading vale
#

sliding is dodging more or less

south folio
#

only thing that sliding does is stop your stamina regen and prevents your dodge count from refreshing
but your slides will always be the same

lusty turtle
fading vale
#

dodge slides takes 2 dodges

fading vale
#

duelist is special

royal vortex
fading vale
#

you get 100% increase on a crit weakspot

royal vortex
#

so its 100% crit/weakspot

south folio
#

should probably just be +50% weakspot damage though

#

rather than including crit

fading vale
#

yeah skelly get wrecked by facts and logic

#

šŸ™‚

royal vortex
#

which means u should run duellist deadly accurate headhunter

#

190% crit/weakspot

coarse birch
#

Balanced

royal vortex
#

does it cap at 90% or 100% for deadly accurate

#

i do not remember

south folio
#

duellist applying to ranged certainly does lead to interesting things

#

100%

coarse birch

I think its

i do this because i principally refuse to run shout
