I was doing accounting and realised why accountants hate themselves and dropped it

ivory marlin
#

Yeah

ivory marlin
#

Kinda sucks with how independent i have to be but eh

Colourblind tho

ivory marlin
#

Rip

sterile stone
#

Ohhh right right

#

You coulda been diver

ivory marlin
#

Ocean scary

delicate shadow
#

Maybe I could get a job at Boeing

sterile stone
#

"Can you use duct tape?"

#

"You're hired"

ivory marlin
#

Work at a bar and always tell people your life story if they order a drink you hate making

delicate shadow
#

Being a diver would be sick

sterile stone
#

Working at a gas station was mad fun, it was like regular show

delicate shadow
#

Actually would do

sterile stone
#

Just with more drug addicts

ivory marlin
#

Im homies with the guy working at the 7/11 by my house

#

If the total is like 3.15 i just gotta pay 2$

#

He’s pretty chill

sterile stone
#

Is it a corporate or franchised store?

ivory marlin
#

Uhhh

#

Corporate

#

I think

sterile stone
#

Is the floor concrete?

ivory marlin
#

Idk its a 7/11

#

No?

sterile stone
#

If it's concrete floors then it's more than likely a newer 7/11 which means it might be corp

ivory marlin
#

I think its tile

#

Shiny white

sterile stone
#

Aw so that shits old

ivory marlin
#

Yeah

sterile stone
#

Probs franchised

ivory marlin
#

Idk why this is important ima be real

sterile stone
#

It's how people get treated

ivory marlin
#

Ah i see

sterile stone
#

Franchised stores tend to be more laxed

#

Corporate stores tend to be more uptight and strict

ivory marlin
#

Interesting interesting

#

I have the most laxed job ever istg

sterile stone
#

Like when we throw out the old food for the day, corporate will fire us if we give out the food we planned on throwing out

#

Vs franchise

#

It's motly up to the owners who don't care most of th etime

ivory marlin
#

I see

#

The owner of the location is strict as fuck but everyone else is super chill

sterile stone
#

Yeah some people can be asses

#

When the GM took over my store cause one of my manager's quit and the other was a absolute loser who they couldn't fire cause no one else wanted the job

ivory marlin
#

Half the time we close early cuz the shiftlead or manager just wants to go home

sterile stone
#

Mans was the worst boss ever

ivory marlin
#

I’ve never worked an easier job

sterile stone
#

Word

ivory marlin
#

Its hype

#

Im also like the best employee so that also says something about the location but eh

ivory marlin
#

Same

sterile stone
#

I gotta wake up in 5 hours

ivory marlin
#

I dont work tomorrow but sleep is good

#

My friend was surprised when i told him i work 23 hours a week

sterile stone
#

That's part time

ivory marlin
ivory marlin
sterile stone
#

So where's your raise

ivory marlin
#

Thats what im saying

#

The owner is cheap as fuck so despite how good i do i probably wont get one any time soon

sterile stone
#

I mean know your worth is all I can say

#

Anyways

#

Sleep time

ivory marlin
#

Goodnight

#

Sleep time for me too

sly mauve
#

she hates me

ember yew
#

its not that bad you can either transform it into BT focused (Savage Sweep -> Rampage, critdamage -> Carapace if you arent killing it with crit without it), or just replace BT with rampage and critdamage with Flak

sly mauve
#

just tested it, savage sweep also lets me cleave reapers which is kinda nice but it needs 3 lesser enemies to start the blessing

#

but perfect strike beeing able to stagger 4 crushers with lights is kinda goated

paper pine
#

I would actually use the heavy sword if I could get this

sly mauve
#

to correct myself, it can only hit em, not even with impact and stagger blessing its possible to stagger a crusher with lights

zealous basin
#

god damn dark and darker is so much fun now wtf

#

i played in some random playtest once and was like eh its okay

#

but its so fun now

oh i forgot theres already some gameplay available kek

its a bug with lucky bullet.

yet in map3 you will see some clips where a plasma vet is outdamaging me
so somehow the plasma is better than a rumbler with 300% attack speed bonus and infinite ammo - a lesson in that

0:00 artillery
0:16 rumbler
1:40 rumbler vs chaos spawn
2:15 rumbler vs carapace gang

I know I should use chainsword because of better dodging amd faster but the evic attack pattern is just superior

zealous basin
#

to ur first part

#

so true and based TOOBASED

#

to ur second part

#

evi is goated and superior its just facts

#

anyone who disagrees is a cringe little 🤓 and ur free to disregard their bitch ass loser virgin opinion

drifting wolf
#

i use eviscerator over chainsword because i think using only one hand for your chainsword is kinda lame

#

no im not that

zealous basin
#

i use eviscerator over chainsword because i've had sex with a woman before

#

or a man if thats what ur into idc thats no the point

zealous basin
#

catte :3

placid fiber

Needs more whiskers

drifting wolf

#

yall remember that movie dinosaur

#

in like 1999 or some shit idr

#

actually nvm im not doxing myself

placid fiber
#

The movie or the show? lol

#

I think the show is even older

drifting wolf
#

the 2000 movie from disney

zealous basin
#

yeah

#

that one

#

^

drifting wolf
#

the show is older and was peak television

zealous basin
#

i used to get free flash passes as a kid

#

we went to disneyland everyone weekend and skipped all lines

#

it was sooooo based

look at this cat i love her

drifting wolf

(this was my cat she is almost certainly dead but dont let that distract u from how cute she is i love her)

paper pine

Rampage or savage sweep?

placid fiber
#

Yes

#

All jokes aside, Rampage

drowsy steppe
zealous basin
#

no... they are....

#

they got boobers and shit

#

been a few months tbh but thats for reasons

#

but i can confirm i've born witness

paper pine
#

Evis
Better attack pattern
Higher cleave

Sword
Faster = more crits
More dodges and higher distance
Higher finesse

Chainsword is better 🤓

paper pine
#

Can you crit cleaved ememies?

placid fiber
#

I mean, probably.

tame reef
#

which one is the slug shotgun

placid fiber

We don’t cause the sun to explode

That's what you think

Inb4 our sun has enough of our bs and explodicates

hushed agate

We really need to get rid of the sun

#

It dont do shit

#

It just sits up there and hurts my eyes

placid fiber
#

Yeah

#

It is a most unfriendly sun

placid fiber
#

We really need to get ourselves a red sun

#

It would be much more pleasant on the eyes

hey iim curently leveling my zealot are there any builds tipps ?^^

#

And remember that Chastise/Fury of the Faithful allows your ranged weapon to penetrate armour

#

If you use it, for the next 5 seconds you can kill Crushers with any ranged weapon at all. Even autoguns.

paper pine
#

Where is chastise and fury of faithful?

obtuse stirrup
#

Chastise is the basic charge ability you start with

#

Fury of the Faithful is the upgrade

#

It has hidden armour degradation properties

#

It's generally considered to be Zealot's strongest ability for lots of reasons

trim zenith
#

Only ability that makes you feel like you're playing zealot

#

I wonder why vet and zealot both share aoe staggers that give overtoughness and stealth abilities. Lazy/time-constrained designing?

paper pine
#

Damn even better then

hushed agate
#

I like book but shroud sucks

placid fiber
#

I feel like zealot's and vet's stealth are a bit unique from eachother

obtuse stirrup
#

Zealot and ogryn both share a charge too

#

And did even pre 13

placid fiber
#

zealot's is for a 1 time hit, vet's is more for safety

trim zenith
#

Not unique enough still

placid fiber
#

Tru

obtuse stirrup
#

Also Zealot and Vet recharge theirs differently

#

Veteran by killing elites/specials, Zealot by generically critting or backstabbing

hushed agate
#

Because everyone forgets you exist

obtuse stirrup
#

Vet also has 2 charges

trim zenith
#

Or just press executioners stance and do the same thing

obtuse stirrup
#

E Stance drastically different in execution

hushed agate
obtuse stirrup
trim zenith
#

yeah if it's just gunners you don't really care

#

never said it was more useful

hushed agate
obtuse stirrup
#

Tbh with my CIAG E Stance build I just shoot melee attackers

#

If it's only a few

placid fiber
placid fiber
#

Just hit q...?

obtuse stirrup
#

If you put your gun away, E Stance drops off

placid fiber
#

Yeah and?

hushed agate
#

I use las gun and i basically have to either cancel or tip toe around a single walker while i try and hit heads

placid fiber
#

You don't get murdered in melee then lol

obtuse stirrup
#

I'm just saying it's got weaknesses

placid fiber
#

Yeah it has a weakness

obtuse stirrup
#

You can be forced to drop stance

#

Why are you being so hostile lmao

hushed agate
#

Stance would be so much better if it didn't cancel

trim zenith
#

Stance should tick down during melee

placid fiber
#

I am being hard headed lol

obtuse stirrup
#

Stance is fine imo

#

It's a limiting factor

trim zenith
#

Probably it's single biggest flaw

placid fiber
#

I don't use stance anyway on the Vet

obtuse stirrup
#

But it is mitigated by it recharging even while active

#

Unlike say SG or PBB

placid fiber
#

I use the shout and ranged/melee specialization

obtuse stirrup
#

I try to use everything in different builds

rocky marsh
paper pine
#

I want to get rampage on my chainsword but does it normally hit 3 enemies withOUT cleave bonuses?

placid fiber
#

and the full stamina regen delay on vet as well

obtuse stirrup
#

The devs gave me a big talent tree

placid fiber
#

Having psyker stamina regen delay on Vet feels SO fucking good

obtuse stirrup
#

I wanna use it all

placid fiber
#

It is liberating after being fucked over so many times by stamina on Vet...

#

It also lets me play more like a zealot lol

#

tbh... 4 zealots ain't enough

#

😭

trim zenith
#

melee vet already does more damage than melee zealot

rocky marsh
#

@placid fiber

placid fiber
# rocky marsh

Give me full stamina regen delay or give me death, on Vet

rocky marsh
#

even with stam curios?

placid fiber
#

Fuck having to have stam curios

rocky marsh
#

im going to do 3x three stam curios

#

atm i have 3x two stam

placid fiber
#

I want toughness and hp curios on my Vet

#

not Stamina ones

rocky marsh
#

i dun get toughness curios when we have VOC, iron will, and whatever the aura TDR is called

placid fiber
#

the one you have in that is the movement speed aura

rocky marsh
#

no, the top node

#

33% max tdr given your coherency

placid fiber
#

I'm talking the aura you're taking lol

#

left is ammo regen, middle is damage, right is movement speed

rocky marsh
placid fiber
#

Yeah lol

obtuse stirrup
#

(I run movespeed aura on my helbore/shovel vet)

rocky marsh
#

yeah an d uh

#

and what :v

placid fiber
#

I was just saying :3

#

Take what you want, I prefer the ammo regen one myself

obtuse stirrup
#

Ammo regen is by far the best

rocky marsh
obtuse stirrup
#

But sometimes it involves a bigass detour lmao

rocky marsh
#

and uh, i don't really care about my team's ammo management, that isn't on me

placid fiber
rocky marsh
#

that 10% gives me caxe breakpoints

placid fiber
#

Fair

placid fiber
#

Again, fair

rocky marsh
#

but yeah why toughness curios

placid fiber
#

I am a zealot at heart x.x

rocky marsh
#

i get hp i guess

#

but toughness really no point i feel

placid fiber
#

More safety

#

I like safety

#

I do 3 toughness curios on my zealot, except on my marty builds... which I do 2 wounds 1 toughness then

#

It's a learned thing that I am not wanting to entirely give up

rocky marsh
#

huh you don't do 3 wounds?

placid fiber
#

On marty? Nah, the extra toughness curio does WAY more for me

hushed agate
#

I dont find 3 to get you enough mileage tbh

#

I run two with fury and evis and it clears auric ezpz

#

Toughness for general survivability just seems better

placid fiber
#

I am a wound curio hater >.>

#

I was born this way

I mean, they are terrible outside of martyr

heh heh heh heh

I use a caxe, tho

i do too, but i remember needin 4 stacks, but i don't run it often so you are prob right

rocky marsh
#

i rather have more fun alive than be dead less

umbral kindle
#

Btw there is a trick I've found

hushed agate
placid fiber
hushed agate
#

I was talking about vet and psyker

umbral kindle
#

If you have an odd hp value the half hp rounds up to above the wound

#

And you can get downed twice

placid fiber
hushed agate
#

Your teamates are sharing stims?

rocky marsh
placid fiber
#

I generally grab a hp stim so they don't try to heal me lol

umbral kindle
#

1, 3, 5 etc

rocky marsh
#

yeah im asking any odd number or its just a coincidence that an odd number passes some threshold

umbral kindle
#

I'm not 100% sure tbh

#

I haven't done much testing but I've had it happen with some builds sometimes

hushed agate
#

Well regardless of opinion a wound on psyker or veteran is worth considering. The game can be unpredictable and having insurance in case you go down may bring more value than 20 toughness

umbral kindle
#

Meh

placid fiber
rocky marsh
#

i can die and sitll top 5 categories consistently on a5histg with psyker

obtuse stirrup
#

I like how med stimms heal for 50% with no wound curios

placid fiber
#

^

umbral kindle
#

NGL I think most of the times I actually die it's because no one could/would revive, not because of wounds

placid fiber
#

Yeah

#

If the more skilled player dies... the other dominos just crumble...

#

generally

hushed agate
#

Yall teammates are the worst

placid fiber
#

Yeah

#

They are

hushed agate
#

Get good teamates like me

umbral kindle
#

Sometimes it is smarter to leave someone

obtuse stirrup
#

Or I get ressed in a fire

umbral kindle
#

Than create more downed players

rocky marsh
#

might not be their fault entirely too
if theres like 2 maulers and a bomber far away and huge zombie crowd they also can't do much

obtuse stirrup
#

Or directly under a falling clobb

#

Ive recently begun enjoying aurics way more than regular damnation because youre more likely to find good teammates, or wipe in 2 minutes

placid fiber
#

I don't advise doing what I do tho

umbral kindle
#

I mean if you have stealth or w/e go for it

placid fiber
#

I give almost 200% of the mental useage during a clutch x.x

obtuse stirrup
placid fiber
#

It hurtz the brain cell x.x

#

It's like lmao gj team chaos

#

My singular brain cell hurt during clutch

#

#

I've had some wild ass clutches before tho lol

#

Once the adrenaline wears off... god the after effects hit x.x

rocky marsh
#

i want a5histg with mael tension

#

call it a5histg+

placid fiber
#

My most proud clutch was on a hi 5 shock

#

after my friend got downed

#

Holy fuck I held off for like 5 minutes

#

before I could make it to the elevator

#

just to get to the end event

#

That was my finest showing of stealth zealot, I think

#

I murdered everything

#

with a heavy sword and autopistol

#

Crushers? Maulers? Trappers? Dogs? bombers? Flamers? Bursters? All dead

#

My friend witnessed that clutch as well(I may have accidentally been the one to down him with a barrel x.x)

#

The randoms were inspired after that, as well, and did well the rest of the match lol

#

Meanwhile I was drenched in sweat x.x

#

Devil's Claw is good, now

obtuse stirrup
#

idk never used it

placid fiber
#

It was always okayish

#

Now it really is good

paper pine
#

Which one though?

placid fiber
#

iirc the mk 4

#

is the prefered one

obtuse stirrup
#

think some people like the 7 too

placid fiber
#

Yeah

paper pine
placid fiber
#

Yeah, it will treat carapace armor as flak armor while the charge is active(for 1 swing)

obtuse stirrup
#

I mean everything will, but for only one swing

#

if you use a gun, then it'll apply for 5 whole seconds though

placid fiber
#

Oh yeah, Mall?

#

Is that how you really feel?!

rocky marsh
#

i want a5histg with mael tension i want a5histg with mael tnesion >>:v

placid fiber
#

I think it's more like hi5stg

#

for the wording

#

or hi5sg

#

I'm okay with normal intensity damnation, for now. I've put in my part for insane goddamn clutching, and I am okay with more chill games lol

#

I am also a bit rusty as well

#

Meet the viscious squirrel I "attack" my cat with

#

according to the tag on it, its name is Chipper lol

#

She sometimes does a dramatic flip over when I do that lol

#

Before getting back up and coming back for more

rocky marsh
#

actually people do modifier then difficulty as well
so i guess im still wrong :v

rocky marsh
#

how can you play normal damnation

#

FOR SHAME

#

I've not been a big fan of the Catachan Devil's Claw Swords for a long while, but the new Talent Tree's have really let this weapon flourish. In this video I go through what differentiates the weapons, how to build them and give a verdict on which I believe is the best.

Its safe to say, it has become my most used & go-to weapon on my Zealot. S...

Biggest advantages/cons between Precog and Executor? Trying to decide which one to pair with uncanny. Also how important are the perks for knife?

#

I love this game and dont want to just bash on the devs.
but its crazy its now april 3rd and no announcement/info yet about the content update coming
And helldivers with a smaller dev team, same engine, down the street.....puts out content weekly and new hype stuff

#

i want this game to just move faster than it does

#

and I know its never going to

#

but mannnn

#

I know im harping on a dead horse, and I dont want to just bash the devs bc i love the games they make at the end of the day

#

but ive just never seen a game with so much potential and calling itself "live service" feel so dead and slow to develop

#

i know people are sick of comparing to hd2, but its hard not to. If this game had the community engagement + live service model of HD2 it would be the better game. It might have 100k concurrent playing too

rocky marsh
#

imagine if instead of chorus, they gave zealot a low cooldown iai

#

unlimited cleave, no additional damage

lusty turtle
rocky marsh
#

but but that doesn't kill, just knockbacks
and its the boom boom that cleaves not the actual weapon

misty nova
#

"I studied the knife" vs "I studied the blade" copypasta

lusty turtle
#

na the actual weapon has infinite cleave as well

#

its not just the explosion on the first target

rocky marsh
#

BUT DOEN"T KILL

#

ok maybe headshot damage multiplier

#

200 degree angle

#

have some visual effect like a dimension tear too

I'm trying to work out if this causes bleed to cleaved targets aswell?

sterile stone
#

Takes my soul every time

obtuse stirrup
#

but tbh I'm not sure if that counts on 0 damage crits

#

I think it will

#

but not sure

paper pine
#

So a crit swing will apply bleed to all the targets?

obtuse stirrup
#

It should do, iirc.

paper pine
#

Because then that means I can prioritise movement over cleave targets and that will actually enchance scourge

#

I'll test it

#

(I dont have mods)

sly mauve
#

one evis crit hitting a horde counts as 4 crits

paper pine
#

I've decided to use claw sword over evis, hence the cleave target

#

Oh evis has it too

#

But i prefer to lower shredder

#

Does block efficiency affect parry?

fleet zealot
#

It is the crit cdr you want

#

To maintain your chastise buff or whatever active you are choosing

paper pine
#

Yeah, hitting bleeding enemies gives more crits which means more dashes

#

And more crits

#

Lmao

fleet zealot
#

Or well

#

Crit, then swing after said crit

paper pine
#

If you kill an enemy in one crit hit it cant apply scourge can it?

fleet zealot
#

Either it is a lot of weak enemies you stack scourge up on

#

Or one big enemy that you just need to smack 3 times

paper pine
#

The only thing is

#

If I prioritise cleave damage over mobility it's harder to achieve duelist which is very strong

fleet zealot
#

Not to mention you have blazing piety as well for 25% crit chance

fleet zealot
#

Rampage+ wrath/sweep or rampage+ shred

#

And duelist can be proc’d from a single dodge on just about anything ranged or melee attack

paper pine
#

I was using this

#

Is this a better substitute

ember yew
#

they are different things

#

second wind is great for every build, but blood redemption is skipped with crit builds (you take scourge)

paper pine
#

But as I said with duelist, lower mobility means its harder to achieve

fleet zealot
#

mobility above 60% is all you need

#

if you mean your waepon stat

#

it's not until like

#

50 something

#

you lose a single dodge

fleet zealot
#

and it increases consistency

paper pine
#

I sacrificed 10% health for desperation idk

spare talon
#

scourge applies 2 stacks of bleed per proc

#

which honestly makes it not entirely useless as it makes stacking up to 16 on a boss pretty easy for that extra bit of damage as you fight it

ember yew
# paper pine

you can remove EWES, Disdain and Desperation in favor of TWBS and Second Wind

#

if you want an alternative

#

TWBS/Second Wind will make your dodge much more stronger

#

and Dance of Death allows sniping even with braced autoguns

paper pine
ember yew
#

not sure how impactful it on bolter

#

but being immune to stuns and pushbacks

#

will improve experience either way

spare talon
#

honestly dance of death is a travel node most of the time for twbs
but one thats well worth the cost

#

i dont get any use out of it with a revovler

#

but i just want twbs that much

ember yew
#

its really improves long range fights with brautos, but things that already can snipe

#

wont get much

coarse birch
#

Yeah its nice for brautos and bolter hipfire

still quartz
#

Also pretty funny on shotguns

paper pine
#

Surely twbs is made redundant by simply getting good

spare talon
placid fiber
coarse birch
#

Honestly twbs is just qol

#

Its not needed but it makes the game smoother

#

You dont get staggered by random bullet from 1 of 90 gunners on the other side of the map

#

Less big of a deal now that they dont push you though

obtuse stirrup
#

TWBS is mostly important with Fury of the Faithful imo

#

Which is tragic because it's on the wrong side of the fucking tree

ember yew
#

kill them all and get away without taking any damage (god bless second wind)

#

without TWBS one shotgunner pushback can end your entire career

#

tldr a top talent to have if you are constantly ahead of the team on frontline and run behind enemy lines for gunners/shotgunners/etc

south folio
#

and hit trading without worrying about stagger

#

e.g., whacking a chaos spawn w/o worrying being staggered all the time

#

not being staggered right before a sniper/trapper/overhead

paper pine
#

Well i'll just use parry for that

#

(I've never used parry before)

south folio
#

sure you can always play around not having it

ember yew
#

but once you get a doze

#

you can't return

paper pine

I just get angry when I get stunned

#

Makes me play better

#

Irl talent

north sedge
#

Or just not worry about it

paper pine
#

why do people prefer mk4 claw over mk1, because it has heavy strikedown?

#

I think mk1 works better with distain and scourge tbh

north sedge
#

🤔

paper pine
#

Distain requires the first attack to be high cleave

You can stack scourge quicker when you're light attacking elites

north sedge
#

Why would you be using lights

paper pine
#

Because the mk1 heavy is just sweeps

venerated zealot players of the darktide discord, what knife should i build for my knife/bolt gun zealot? I talented into charge and whatever gives me flat 25% crit most of the time and throwing knives

#

my first one is a fleshtearer, riposte with flak dmg but I heard felsh tearer is not even the best option, apparently precog + something is best?

frosty herald
#

uncanny executor mk6 knife with flak and carapace/unyielding

#

heavies oneshot specialist heads

rustic widget
#

jesus really? my current one doesnt do much to crushers

#

oh you said specialist shit mybad

frosty herald
#

thats what uncanny is for

south folio
#

knife is one of the better anti-carapace weapons cuz of uncanny strike

frosty herald
#

(i havent played the game since december this info could be outdated)

rustic widget
#

i see i see

#

i'd love to try uncanny bc i heard it affects throwing knife 😄 so good to hear that's a good blessing to go for

frosty herald
#

well

#

uncanny is just a straight up damage boost and allows you to oneshot crushers

rustic widget
#

that sounds pretty good 😄

obsidian prairie
#

It gives up to 24% rending per hit up to 5 stacks, and rending I just Armor penetration at its most basic

#

If your weapon deals like 25% base damage to carapace and you get 24% rending you now deal 49% base damage to carapace

#

And it goes until 100 then scales very very slowly

rustic widget
#

Oh, honestly until now i didnt really "get" rending. I just knew it scales dmg agaisnt armor, ty

#

i guess I'll burn some of my plasteel to get a good knife then

obsidian prairie
#

The reason uncanny is a pick perk is because you can get to 100% carapace damage in 2-3 hits on most weapons

severe geyser

Covers both crowd control while also smashes specials right

placid fiber

The main weakness of a build like that would be sudden trappers, I would think

#

flamer doesn't stagger them well, and thammer leaves you open during the swing

violet hornet

Trappers are definitely an issue for flamer hammer, along with bombers and snipers

Throwing knives is probably the way to go to cover those but I'm not sure about how that'd fit into a typical hammer build

My total is 1350, so I’m estimating 300 veteran, 250 Psyker, 250 ogryn, the rest zealot

Going from zealot to ogryn is incredibly jarring. One heavy attack on ogryn takes as long as 2 ultimates on zealot

i personally find zealot agonizing

idk why i keep trying it

Anyone who tells you a pistol is better will also tell you a mark 15 eviscerator is better or a devil claw 4 is better because they baby you with spammable horizontals

bulwarks only really annoy me when they blob up, which is not an uncommon opinion or event

.bulwarks are babies unless you're straight up in a corner with a bunch

it's annoying to fight them so i just want them dead immediately

and to reduce a spike scenario where 10 bulwarks have spawned because that has happened

red pollen
#

And eating a combat stim then stealthing behind a beast of nurgle to do 75% of its health in a single mag dump without even have fury is just pure satisfaction

spare dome
#

me unironically using ambuscade just for that

red pollen
#

I run purge the unclean and the 25% range damage that leads into it instead of branching into ambuscade since you also get the flat damage when meleeing bosses and crushers/bulwarks

spare dome
#

i mean you're going down there already, presumably

#

that presumption being loner/stealth

#

i just dont happen to use anything that really takes advantage of grievous wounds

#

so ambuscade it is

hell just magdumping the braced graia with Ambuscade + Anoint in Blood is pretty stupid damage

let alone all the other bonuses you'll be adding in
