zealot-class

[maiden path]

he gave it all to me

[ornate bone]

No it's mine

I have the saintly mendicate stuff and cowl of the avenger

All mine

[maiden path]

nope

check again

[median steeple]

Post your dr wily looking zealot rn

[ornate bone]

Nuh uh

[visual blade]

apparently i'm roleplaying judge, @maiden path is roleplaying the agitator and @ornate bone is roleplaying the fanatic

[maiden path]

what does agitator sound like gaghin

[visual blade]

fake high gothic

[maiden path]

yea idk wtf that means

[ornate bone]

Fanatic? I would not call myself that. I am far more devoted to the God-Emperor than a mere fanatic

[visual blade]

💢

[visual blade]

THE fanatic. the personality

[median steeple]

Ass attack

[placid fiber]

They mixed the main risk of rain 1 and risk of rain returns theme song together, and several other risk of rain 1, 2, or returns songs... 😮

[ornate bone]

Ok yeah that applies

[visual blade]

agitator can't read so...

[placid fiber]

I mean 2/3rds of twitch chat can't, either, *** COUGH COUGH COUGH***

[visual blade]

2/34rds

[placid fiber]

Yeah I mispelled it :3

[visual blade]

what's chat gotta do with the faithful not respecting devotion?

[placid fiber]

now if you will escuse me, I have to go break myself emotionally

[visual blade]

you know what? i'm gonna say it. i don't actually like the ror soundtrack that much as music?

[placid fiber]

That's fair

I love Coalescence tho

[visual blade]

it's good, don't get me wrong, but i don't think it was designed to be listened to outside of the game

with visuals and such

similar to how, for example, neither made in abyss manga or made in abyss soundtrack will ever come close to the made in abyss anime

all of these elements have to... coalesce, if you'll excuse me... in order to work well

music as an experience, shall we say

[placid fiber]

There are specific songs I listen to, from Risk of Rain's sound tracks, like the rain formerly known as purple, coalescence, on a boat made from a sheet of newspaper, having blood it was blood*

[visual blade]

you're gonna need a bigger ukulele

the goat

[placid fiber]

It's good, but, I prefer having it on when fighting moon man

Coalencence and The Rain Formerly Known as Purple are definitely my favorite 2 songs, tho, out of those

and after experiencing coalenscence... that makes ...con lentitud poderosa have much more of an impact

[ornate bone]

Which of these is better?

[visual blade]

3 enemy hard damage limit is a pain

[ornate bone]

Actually nevermind hadron will 100% brick both. I don't have the luck for it

[visual blade]

could i get stats screenshots of the penetration? not 100% sure on what it does

[ornate bone]

One on the right is the one with higher penetration

[visual blade]

anything stopping you from leveling both and seeing what you get?

[ornate bone]

The amount of resources I have

[visual blade]

sell some things you don't need

[visual blade]

ah this way

thought ordos

well, do you have both in your inventory?

if so, just play some

[ornate bone]

Yep

Back to looking for the plastic stuff

[eternal apex]

just got to level 30 playing "sponge" zealot, AMA

[left iron]

Swap that CDR on damage taken node to literally anything else. It only applies to health damage taken, not toughness, making it completely worthless

[rocky marsh]

for knife

stat wise how mich is needed

75 damage enough?

or need 80 damage 75+ pen and 75+ fin

also like which knife best

[eternal apex]

it only works on health, that's true, but in my experience that doesn't make it worthless at all

[left iron]

Since its a 1%/1% ratio, you're taking too much damage if it gives you questionable value

[rocky marsh]

if you always play on 2 wound, then would the CDR always be at 80%?

o.o

[left iron]

No, 1% lost health = 1% CDR

[spare talon]

oh boy more darktide time, time to go see what the current maelstrom is so i can keep working on this penance

oh ok no thanks

[maiden path]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjGZLnja1o8

[rocky marsh]

so 70% (5/7) CDR?

[maiden path]

dis what playing in zealot head 24/7

real no lie

[left iron]

If you take 1% of your health in damage, you reduce your current cooldown by 1%

[fleet zealot]

no it's cdr gained on losing health

[eternal apex]

i mean, i easily get 3 activations between revives

[fleet zealot]

not cdr based on having lower hp

[rocky marsh]

ah just curreent, ok thats what i remember

[spare talon]

so that means any dr you have makes that talent worse

[rocky marsh]

@spare talon need ur help which knife better

or mr ice

:3

[spare talon]

this statement is concerning

this implies youre taking enough damage to need to be revived consistently

[fleet zealot]

lol 1 down= one activation

it is not good

at all

[spare talon]

yeah

[rocky marsh]

somebodi tell me which knfie better plos

is it mk3

[left iron]

Anyhoo, if you feel like it gives you value, by all means keep using it. I just pointed out it is not great with any build, especially marty since you're stacking a lot of damage reduction anyway, which makes it worse

[median steeple]

bro what fucking year is it

[spare talon]

you lose half of your health, which is a disasterous fuckup, only gives you half your ability

[fleet zealot]

both are good mk3 has better single target mk6 is a better at generalist with your heavy slashes

[maiden path]

whatever year i want it to be

[spare talon]

oh i thought you were gonna post ones you had

[median steeple]

havent heard this shit since like 2018

[spare talon]

you mean the actual marks

[rocky marsh]

ya

[nimble fiber]

burster explosion bounced me into fan and just like that streak is over

[spare talon]

like what bandit said, depends on what you want for it

[rocky marsh]

okeh thenk

[left iron]

L

[nimble fiber]

enough darktide for today

[maiden path]

i may listen to nightcore but i will never listen to hatsune miku

[median steeple]

yeah the fan killing people is insane

[rocky marsh]

willmer show me this build

his buil;d

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/build-editor?id=9bd6f88a-c319-4748-8333-60f2a1f317a1

[spare talon]

mk3 is all stabs
mk6 has slashes and stabs so you gotta know the combos better for single target

[median steeple]

I saw a dude get thrown by a mutant into it yesterday

[nimble fiber]

like I knew that it could insta kill u

[rocky marsh]

i going change the judgement to martyr tho

[nimble fiber]

but burster had other plans

[rocky marsh]

but ya

im going use that build

[spare talon]

https://tenor.com/view/darktide-40k-psyker-explode-perils-gif-10586129510772702813

[rocky marsh]

i not going to take 2nd life

[nimble fiber]

I wanna die because of actuall skissue not because of insta kill bullshit, actually my positioning was maybe shit idk

[rocky marsh]

swap to judgement 3 stack and annoint

[median steeple]

tbf its not like ledges which are in like most missions

[rocky marsh]

@spare talon @fleet zealot for mk3 what stat thresholds do i need for dam, pen, fin and ft

[spare talon]

if youre not taking holy rev and all that

this is what id do

[median steeple]

that fan is a monster

[spare talon]

this has leeway with 3 extra points

[rocky marsh]

i assume need duelist

thats why he took iut

[nimble fiber]

I would have like a ledge death way more than this tbf

happened to me yesterday lmao

also a burster

[spare talon]

i mean yeah you can do that
thatll take 4 points so you can take off good balance from what i have

[fleet zealot]

idk

[spare talon]

but the key changes i made were actually using shroud nodes cuz literally why would you not
and removing judgement toughness and celerity for backstab cdr and dodge

[spare talon]

no idea either

i dont knife zealot too often, but i do have experience with it

so i wouldnt know that much

hell idek dclaw breakpoints lol

[rocky marsh]

prob i do this

i didn't see he took the toughness on judgement lol

or mayube i go martyr

idk

[spare talon]

yeah its actually dogshit

idk who made that build but i really need to tell them how much nothing that node does

it gives 2% toughness for each stack of momentum you expend

with the nerfs, thats now 30% at max

and that can only happen once every 6 seconds

[rocky marsh]

ya i don't take that normally

[ornate bone]

Is this build decent at all? https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9a58b8eb-43c0-4828-9655-3a8fe851a27c/zealot-crit-chainsword-2

[spare talon]

and it can only happen when you dont have any stacks buffing you

[rocky marsh]

i don't think dogshit
i think he took that because he made that build for speedrun

thats why build kind aoff

[spare talon]

oh well then that makes more sense, but even my speedrun build has piety mostly for invis

since speeeeeeed

plus the toughness regen from that

[spare talon]

mostly

[fleet zealot]

i'll just call out issues as i see them

[spare talon]

i do have a few suggestions though they are small

crit chance and damage perks

[fleet zealot]

don'tt ake crit chance/crit damage perks ever

[spare talon]

bad

[fleet zealot]

dev strike<<< rampage

always go rampage shred

[spare talon]

crit chance isnt a make or break, but 5% isnt worth the slot in comparison to 25% against flak for example

crit damage on the other hand is one of the worst due to how the math behind it works

[fleet zealot]

as for tree, no reason to go the +15 toughness after purge the unclean

otherwise it's great

[spare talon]

if you deal 100 damage and deal 120 on a crit, you wont be dealing 132 damage with that perk
youll be dealing 122, since it only increases the bonus damage from the crit, in this shitty example that would be the 20, not the 120

[spare talon]

oh i didnt even see that node

thats great actually cuz i have a spot you can move that to

that can easily be moved to second wind for the literal best toughness regen perk in the game, across all classes

15% toughness on dodge counts for melee and ranged so you just regen left and right

[ornate bone]

Better than what I currently have? https://darktide.gameslantern.com/build-editor?id=9bd90d67-3ddc-4c1b-aa1c-a296c7673237

[fleet zealot]

no reason for shattering on bolter anymore

cavalcade=better

[solar gorge]

https://tenor.com/view/black-guy-poggers-poggers-pog-gif-22576295

[ornate bone]

I did stop playing for a bit so I haven't the slightest idea what's meta now

[spare talon]

something else you could do is drop 2 other talents and grab TWBS for stun immunity for melee and ranged (trust me its both despite what it says), and some suggestions for 2 talents you could swap for that are anoint and purge at the top middle, or sustained assault and the stat node above it
this one is personal preference though since the only options you have to drop are universally good ones, but arent ones that make or break the build, theyre trading flat damage for survivability essentially

[spare talon]

im waiting for the current maelstrom to go away cuz i dont trust randoms THIS much

its the scab only boss maelstrom

[solar gorge]

the thumbnail gave me an aneurysm

[royal vortex]

just get a premade and do the easy ones from MMT

[left iron]

Smh do it in pugs

[spare talon]

no im socially awkward

so im matchmaking (stronger willed)

[solar gorge]

pubs only should get you a different thing

[spare talon]

nearly got that one with 0 downs last night

with pubs

someone got downed at the end of the ending event

so sad

[solar gorge]

it's a lot of babysitting and also getting somewhat lucky

[coarse birch]

when i swap off psyker smh

[rocky marsh]

how does good balance and enduring faith stack?

[royal vortex]

presumably multiplicatively

[solar gorge]

zealot got robbed with the new unlockable miscs

they all look bad except that one at the end

[rocky marsh]

meaning i will only take this amount of toughness damage, correct?
thanks alot josho

[solar gorge]

don't even wanna do the new penances

[frosty herald]

I dont think ill ever get auric storm unless i get the dream team premade

[solar gorge]

carry harder

[rocky marsh]

whats auric storm

nobody die in auric?

[frosty herald]

No one dies 5 times

[fleet zealot]

and business is booming

sleeping business

[solar gorge]

it's just you btw

the others can die

[frosty herald]

You serious?

[maiden path]

impossibruh

[solar gorge]

you only need to do the no one dies once

for the medal

for the title it's just you 5 times

[frosty herald]

I see

No downs for the medal and no deaths for the title

[solar gorge]

yeah

but the deaths thing it's just you

[frosty herald]

I might just cheese it with taunt ogryn then

[solar gorge]

and the no downs it's the whole team

[polar nexus]

I think my no player death contract has been invalidated because of a bot dying. Has that happened to you?

[sterile stone]

[frosty herald]

Playing kingdom come atm

[sterile stone]

I wasn't asking to play goober

[royal vortex]

last number should be 0.75

[spare talon]

resistance to something multiplicitively means it wont ever reach 0

[polar nexus]

What is this sorcery? Maffs?

[maiden path]

found a plus 1k player

[spare talon]

im considering getting that knife skin

its really cool honestly

[sterile stone]

One day

I will reach the 1k level vet

And I will join them

[polar nexus]

The highest I have seen was a 3k+ a few weeks back

[spare talon]

was it cyra

[polar nexus]

It was a knife zealot on a telopots stream. I don't remember

[spare talon]

prolly cyra

[polar nexus]

One of my mate was 2300k a few months ago. Then he started a new zealot and took a break. I fear he deleted his char 😦

[polar nexus]

The new one?

[spare talon]

yea

[polar nexus]

There's something with knives... I only used that in January and was doing great... But after a 3 month break... I can't do shit

[ornate bone]

Maybe try a chainsaw or heavy sword?

[fleet zealot]

i think keet means throwing knives?

[ornate bone]

Ah yeah those

[polar nexus]

Nono

Combat blades

So yeah I went back to hs / claw

[maiden path]

found da ornamental bolters

[sterile stone]

That looks fire ngl

[ornate bone]

Gun fashion show time!

[median steeple]

spent the past hour jury rigging my headphones to fix them

[sterile stone]

Just get new ones wtf

[median steeple]

I did but they wont be here till sunday

[royal vortex]

hey does anyone else have the knifeplay emote

if so does it actually show a knife when you do it

[red mesa]

is ironhelm the better hammer over crucis now since its been changed a lot? ive always used the crucis, but its been feeling kinda mid recently

[sterile stone]

have you tried hitting them

[ornate bone]

Percussive maintenance always works

[sterile stone]

See shadow gets it

[median steeple]

I had to fangle the wire around till audio was fixed and ziptie it

but my left ear is no longer being blasted

[ornate bone]

Use hot glue instead of zipties

Will probably maybe work better

[median steeple]

its only supposed to last a day

and

if it fails I will glue it

[sterile stone]

I was gonna suggest tape

But I mean that works to I guess

[ornate bone]

Anyways are there any devil's claw builds? I like the parry

[sterile stone]

Bruh what....

[delicate shadow]

generic zealot crit build with shred+rampage

[sterile stone]

Mans thinks getting storm survivor is hard to get as a ogryn

Or hard to get in general

[spare talon]

oh my god

almost just did it again

nearly got the flawless maelstrom with pubs

[median steeple]

two reasons to wear it
1 its yellow and cool
2 it spells ASS

[spare talon]

but one of the ogryns got blown off of the map by a burster which was an instant death, which also counts as a down

[sterile stone]

I dunno chief

10 flawless seems more of a commitment than 5 flawless

Simply cause you can just cheese it by leaving right before you die

And it doesn't reset your progress

[spare talon]

ive done that before and it reset my progress

[sterile stone]

Were you downed by a daemonhost?

[spare talon]

no

in fact, i wasnt even downed yet

but i was seconds away from it

[sterile stone]

That's just game jank

[spare talon]

like disabled and in fire

[sterile stone]

I've left before I died

And it kept my progress before

[spare talon]

but it wouldnt have killed me

[polar nexus]

Ironhelm is more combo and less stunlock

Less special DMG too

[polar nexus]

Oh that's why we have more quitters now?

[sterile stone]

Yep

[polar nexus]

Nice. Thanks for the penance FS

Oh noooo we gonna make some toxic penances redacted... 8 months later...

[marble flint]

People did this anyway tbf

[polar nexus]

Not as often as now

And in Oceania the pool is quite small already

[sterile stone]

Australians

Oof

I wouldn't be surprised that penance farming

Makes the game unfun to play for a month or so

People want the nice shiny cosmetics

And don't wanna have to slog through a mission if they don't have to

Especially since for some you can just complete them

And back out the mission

And keep the penance completion

Once people get those (Finish X mission on X difficulty) you may see more of that

[polar nexus]

Yep

[hard nexus]

https://tenor.com/view/disney-guilty-cartoons-cats-gif-23942943

its jerry rigging

u fool

not jury rigging

minor spelling mistake

to the shredder.

[hard nexus]

LMFAO

what even is the cause of that death

[spare talon]

i start a fucking maelstrom, scab only no ammo
vet with fireteam aura, agrip revolver, spams and runs out before even reaching second set of enemies
gets downed twice during it

[hard nexus]

spauntaneous dissolving

[polar nexus]

Speaking of shredder there's a penance to kill stuff with the big fan during the comms Plex mission

[hard nexus]

thats awesome

how many

[polar nexus]

10

[sterile stone]

Spawn in

Team is getting their asses blasted by trappers, dogs and flamers

[spare talon]

wait if you spawn in mid maelstrom will it count for the penance

[sterile stone]

Team ignores enemies behind them

Why are people like this

[hard nexus]

yes

found it out with ciaphas

[sterile stone]

Does it matter if you down before hand?

[hard nexus]

its die, not down

so no

sowwy that came off as like

rude

was not my intention

[polar nexus]

At that point I'd rather play with 200 pings and people from here than pubs.

[spare talon]

for the 5 no death maelstroms?

[sterile stone]

I don't think we're talking about the same penance then

Cause the no deaths one is not team based

It's personal

The no downs one is team based

And honest to god

This penance is annoying for a few reasons

1 psykers

and 2

the fucking people who want to be the main character so bad

And run off without the team

To go die in a horde of maulers

[median steeple]

def a matchmade penance

wait for a piss easy maelstrom and it becomes so easy

[spare talon]

like this one right now

shock troop hunting grounds

commsplex

[spare talon]

ok well im glad this seems to be working now

cuz like what am i supposed to do when the game does this

[maiden path]

mogging the mutant by letting it keep grabbing me

[fleet zealot]

stop downloading so much heretical material

[maiden path]

why does the hood make me bald

[fleet zealot]

cursed item

curse of malding

[maiden path]

belovd said i had to shave my head.................

[sterile stone]

So close

So close to getting the penance done

[ivory marlin]

Look at how badly my manager fucked up this cone

God i hate him

I look hella white in that photo god damn

[obsidian prairie]

Hows this for a crit build w/piety

[polar nexus]

excellent

kinda sad the defences is not above 51, you lose a dodge

[viral hare]

close to perfect id say

[polar nexus]

but you'll do very well with this sword

[obsidian prairie]

Yeah, but it was a melk buy and my first HS

[polar nexus]

don't worry

[obsidian prairie]

is heavy->light or light spam better for clear

[polar nexus]

i would try flak elite tho

[obsidian prairie]

I'll try it eventually

hate dreg ragers though

[austere oak]

Any tips on speeding up the penance for 200 backstabs on ranged enemies outside of coherency? (cant remember the penance name) Im running knife and shroud, but was wondering if theres better weapons to hit that backstab hitbox

[polar nexus]

knives

[polar nexus]

both works

[obsidian prairie]

Heavy light it is

[polar nexus]

but yeah i prefer starting with heavy in a horde

[north sedge]

would a cleave weapon not work better for that shit

[obsidian prairie]

Hows this

Couldn't find what to use an extra point on w/flame nades so I took knives

[austere oak]

Yeah maybe I should. its been one of my least fav penances to do tbh

[obsidian prairie]

Nevermind dropped knives for duellist because I forgot about it

[ornate bone]

[sterile stone]

Seeing a vet without field improv is jarring as shit

[ornate bone]

U

[frosty herald]

psychological damage

[ornate bone]

Is that increased by exec stance modifiers?

[sterile stone]

Brother was a vet with no support abilites

Basically a watered drowned zealot

With none of the beneficial perks or talents

[spare dome]

i dont need field improv because i never remember to use my kits

[north sedge]

but it affects every kit, not just the ones you carry

[ornate bone]

Based

[sterile stone]

Indirectly helping the team

[spare talon]

this is so me

i use field improv anyway tho on vet

but i will avoid taking ammo crates like the plague on any class

i will forget

[maiden path]

fatal error

out of memory

waawaaawaawaaawaa

sucidei bomber fat boys be hitting u from 30 yards away

[frosty herald]

Field improv is such a good utility talent

[median steeple]

God I hope we get a tease of new weapons soon

I need a greatsword so badly

[heavy arch]

i want nunchucks

[north sedge]

chainpen

the only weapon to surpass chainsword

[heavy arch]

halberd my beloved...

[split sable]

does anyone know if they nerfed the crucius hammer? i just had full stacks of headtaker and thrust, invis, and hit the beast of nurgle in its back blob and it didn't even take away a quarter of its health. i hit it 3 times in its back and it was barely over half health when before the update i could one shot a beast of nurg with just full thrust and invis

https://tenor.com/view/gwent-gwentcard-skellige-an-craite-greatsword-gif-13944688

Power zweihander

[frosty herald]

Bon has very very annoying hitboxes

So its not nerfed your just not hitting the weakspot

[split sable]

the little hitmarker was yellow or orange on my hits though

[maiden path]

director be like "wait till he in a corner then spawn 300 ragers behind him"

[split sable]

you're prob right. its the only build i play so when i line everything up and barely do any damage it's annoying

[obsidian prairie]

Heavy sword my new beloved

[ripe quest]

They nerfed Shroudfield a long while ago but otherwise it's the same. Should still be able to 1 shot BoN and Chaos Spawn.

[split sable]

i reckon i'm just missing its weakspot

When I said last night that I cant do the challenge of the 20 minute private mission this is what I mean https://youtu.be/AcQssbCtAZQ?si=I7ak3Lm9TvHZyohF

I get stuck with bullshit

[burnt ivy]

Did they update the spawns and make the game harder or something?

[spare talon]

healthbars for non elites

[burnt ivy]

I like seeing them hit 0

And how much damage I do

I like big number

[spare talon]

i like seeing the healthbars to spot like a shotgunner in the middle of a crowd or something

[burnt ivy]

Fair enough

Usually I don't see em till they are already being shot at or being charged at

I target em quick or can dodge till I get close

nice to have a penance tracking beacon of purity

so far its been removing 500-1K corruption per match

[maiden path]

noo

i got fucking 160k from this match

the entire match was just me and the 139+ guy's psykers going 'good work sibling'

it was a giant psyker circlejerk

[split ibex]

Spawns were changed around on a few maps, yes

[burnt ivy]

But did they make the director AI far more...violent?

Aggressive maybe?

[obsidian prairie]

Just tried an actual piety charge build and holy shit I was not dissapointed

[split ibex]

A lot of the ambient enemies and spawns were changed around in the background it seems like. The one they did talk about was bulwark packs, so at minimum we know that's different for sure.

[sterile stone]

The pox burster one doesn't seem to be tracking right

[maiden path]

sometimes i hate my fucking luck

cause waht u mean terrifying range iv

i dont want dis

Fucked

I'm gonna have a aneurysm

[nimble fiber]

have u witnessed how my streak ended?

[sterile stone]

I have not

[nimble fiber]

poxburster pushed me into the fan and I insta died

after all those matches

[sterile stone]

See that sucks right

But having a penance tied to your teammates competency

Is fucking painful

[nimble fiber]

I can imagine

wich is why I would never do it in pubs, if it happens then it happens

[sterile stone]

Everyone I know is a EU player

pain

[nimble fiber]

lol

are there really that many eu players?

[sterile stone]

No idea

[nimble fiber]

thought the majority would be usa

[sterile stone]

I think it's just most of the people here are EU

The issue is people randomly panic

Like we will be steam rolling a maelstrom

Then out of nowhere

"Let me go dive into a horde of crushers/maulers"

[nimble fiber]

the forbidden dive

[obsidian prairie]

TO KADRIIIIIIIIIN

im finna be throwing games for stealth kills

watch as I become a true zealot main

will u use a knife aswell?

all my friends are EU players

and i'm fuckin stuck in montana. the lag when i'm playing with them is real and makes me thankful they never go above malice

[nimble fiber]

lmao

we had the same problem before, next time maybe someone else hosts, I dont mind playing on a different server

so far the lags have been tolerable for me

[sterile stone]

I think I have been going about this no downs penance farming wrong

I'm noticing a problem

No support players

Like there has to be someone to keep your weakest link alive

[maiden path]

what the fuck is the lore for this

[gray ice]

honestly

[nimble fiber]

lmao

[gray ice]

I was thinking of a dclaw stealth thing

[maiden path]

why does he just have a milk crate of skulls

[nimble fiber]

but what if, they support by killing stuff

[sterile stone]

They generally don't

[gray ice]

yea you

just play VoC

[sterile stone]

The fuck is VoC

[nimble fiber]

I tried dclaw with dash before and I hated it

voice of command

[gray ice]

Dclaw chastise is my goddamn jam

[sterile stone]

In every match today

[gray ice]

shout

[sterile stone]

I've never gone down

It's 9/10 a psyker

Being somewhere they shouldn't

[nimble fiber]

exploding?

[sterile stone]

No

In the middle of a group of heavies

[nimble fiber]

idk what it was, I kinda felt it was too weak

in comparison to crusher and evis 15

[sterile stone]

I dunno what it is with the people I'm getting

But everyone wanna play every class as zealot

And not just play zealot

[nimble fiber]

lol

reminds me of me back when I played psyker

[gray ice]

is this a cry for help

[nimble fiber]

everyone called me a lunatic for the way I played and later on I realized that I was just meant to play zealot instead

[sterile stone]

It's a cry for better teammates

I wanna study what causes people's neurons to snap

And just kill their character for no reason

[nimble fiber]

[nimble fiber]

I feel you tho, I find myself way to often in the situation were Im the last one alive and have to deal with the shit around me on my own

[sterile stone]

I've had situations like that

Hell I even talked to a Og player earlier in a mission

Bro said since the update

Most of his matches been damn near incompletable

Cause of the team comp

[nimble fiber]

thats tough

[gray ice]

smells like teen skissueeeee

you want some help

[median steeple]

damn didnt know canada was in the EU

[drowsy steppe]

nirvana reference

[sterile stone]

I don't consider the French, North Americans

[nimble fiber]

I would help but I really need to sleep soon

[astral brook]

what do i change to make this a 550?

[burnt ivy]

Why do you want a 550?

[gray ice]

indeed

[burnt ivy]

That is perfectly fine the way it is

[gray ice]

didn't know florida was either

[astral brook]

Because itll look nice

[burnt ivy]

I literally use weapons with a base rate of 350+

[gray ice]

he a lil confused but he got spirit

[median steeple]

we've been banished to hell

[burnt ivy]

Fair but that might be rare or near impossible to do

[astral brook]

Fair enough

[burnt ivy]

Max base rates, best perks being tier 4 and blessings being tier 4

[gray ice]

im no expert but you can leave the perks and change both blessings

maniac and elite sounds fine perk wise

so change blessings to tier 4 ones you want for agri and it'll be 550

[burnt ivy]

Personally I'll be happy with Tier 3 and up

But the numbers game is understandable

[astral brook]

I just feel like glory hunter isnt that good

[gray ice]

it's not

that's why you'd change both blessings

[burnt ivy]

I have uhhhhh the one where the longer you aim the more crit chance you have and something else

Lemme check my build

[gray ice]

trickshooter is probably fine on it tbh

[burnt ivy]

I got Surgical and Handcannon

That's what it was

Idk what Rend does but it's probably stun

[gray ice]

it's armor piercing

[burnt ivy]

Oh damn

[gray ice]

surgical/hand cannon is the bis roll for zarona

[burnt ivy]

So those blessings are perfect

[gray ice]

probably for agri too honestly

[burnt ivy]

I use it on my stub revolver

[gray ice]

agri just has a couple other things it can use as well due to the six shooter thing

[burnt ivy]

One tapping Crushers with max Surgical stacks

10/10

Everything else just dies in 1 headshot

[burnt ivy]

Quickdraw Stub Revolver + Zealot is a beautiful combo

Whipping out the ol revolver and headshot instakilling ranged enemies you can't reach and super dangerous ones

Satisfying

[full nebula]

How is momentum with the heavy swords? I want to use the heavy swords but it feels kind of sluggish

does it sacrifice too much damage not having blazing piety?

[drowsy steppe]

wdym Momentum is a great keystone for any weapon to use

you wont sacrifice damage whatsoever if the blessing for the heavy sword is proper

[full nebula]

but is it better/worse than crits with BP?

deathblow headtaker is what it has

[drowsy steppe]

yuh thats the blessing you want. Having crits or not is really dependant on what weapon that has better crit damage scaling, with the blessings to support it. HS's only crit dependant blessing is perfect strike, which is already confusing on what it does. So having crits for HS wont strictly make it better per se. But it can be used to proc crit CDR

[full nebula]

mmm I see, alright well I think I'll give momentum a shot with it, trying to get a lot of mobility

[fervent rock]

is thy wrath be swift no longer mandatory since the update? I heard they removed ranged hitstun

[jaunty lava]

Do i change the 10% dmg for smt or speedload to another blessing?

[calm salmon]

speedload

to fire frenzy?

i think that's usually the go-to

[jaunty lava]

I've just put fire frenzy on it yeah

[spare talon]

oh my fucking god
this is going to be a nightmare

[fair igloo]

woohooooo was about to get untouchable operative and died on my 9th mission trying to save someone and then getting netted

I already have auric storm survivor but these streak missions are so annoying

[spare dome]

more books more power

i need a face cosmetic that's just an open book sitting on my head

then i will be complete

[sterile stone]

This penance is taking a toll on my mental health

[full nebula]

I like the chesf piece

chest*

[spare dome]

thanks. it has books.

[polar nexus]

Where does it come from?

[spare dome]

the book store, i assume

it was the wintery-themed cosmetics from

idk, a while ago

[drowsy steppe]

https://tenor.com/view/king-king-baldwin-king-baldwin-4-rikoamv-riko-amv-gif-8479237540916603760

[spare dome]

this one

[merry flume]

the headpiece sucks on that so bad

[spare dome]

almost none of the full sets are to my taste

but most all have a piece thats pretty damn good

[polar nexus]

That jacket is a sleeper hit

Damn

[ornate bone]

Excellent headpiece. I will shove anyone wearing it into an explosive barrel

the flavor text goes hard

[tropic harbor]

guys, I'm playing update for the first time

do I have to change my build?

[polar nexus]

Show your build

But probably not

[maiden path]

he thinks he's me

[tropic harbor]

I read through it, it looks like I don';t have to. plus posting it sounds like lots of work. my brain is kinda scattered tonight

[polar nexus]

Ask him where he stashed stormbringer

[polar nexus]

Unless your play thammer you can afford not take thy wrath be swift

[tropic harbor]

Oh nice, did they nerf enemy stagger then?

[polar nexus]

Ranged stagger had been removed

No more shooters stunlocking you

[tropic harbor]

Nice

I like this

Also been a while since I've posted here. How is zealot chat doing?

[tropic harbor]

same as always I see

[gray ice]

git guuuuuuuuuuuuud

jeez I feel like this has been going on all day

[sterile stone]

IT AIN'T EVEN ME

I've dead ass been playing like a damn macro spamming robot

And for some reason

When we get to that end goal

[fleet zealot]

same as it ever was

[sterile stone]

Can taste that damn penance

[fleet zealot]

https://tenor.com/view/plug-walk-once-in-a-lifetime-gif-18116264

[sterile stone]

God just possesses one of my teammates and gives them a brain hemmorage

[gray ice]

listen my guy

my bro

my fellow

[fleet zealot]

ahahaahhaah

[gray ice]

in allah

this is not a penance that's meant to be completed in a few hours or a day

unless you're in a premade

[sterile stone]

The thing is tho

[gray ice]

just play the game

[sterile stone]

I've been at like

A bee's dick away

From completing it

And out of nowhwere

The lobotomy patients I'm supervising

[calm salmon]

Sorry that was me

[sterile stone]

Just wanna go off and play hug the horde

[calm salmon]

I'll stop stabbing your teammate's brains with hypodermic needles

[sterile stone]

https://tenor.com/view/forhonor-kyoshin-tozen-kick-gif-22739199

[gray ice]

you'll get it eventually

just play the game like a not psychopath

and go after other stuff and try to do it passively

[sterile stone]

That's the thing tho

[gray ice]

I dunno why you would try to focus on penance like that in pubs my guy

[sterile stone]

Damn near everything else I'm doing is just a time sink

Like complete x missions on x map

I done DID everything else

[gray ice]

ain't no way you already done all them vet penances they added

cuz they ain't retroactive

[sterile stone]

I'm at like 56/59

The last few are keystone related

And the 3rd is unlocked by getting the other 2 keystone ones

[gray ice]

so what you're saying is

you do in fact have other stuff to work toward

and what abou other characters

[sterile stone]

I really don't wanna have to do these weak ass keystone penances

I hate playing zealot with a passion

Ogryn was fun but got boring

And Psyker, God just being petty rn with Psyker

I've joined like 4 matches

Back to back

And all of them are either with everyone dead

Or me at the you lose screen before I can even play

I'm really out here strugglin

[gray ice]

its okay buddy

tomorrow I'll help you out

or later tonight if you happen to still be on

that way there's one less fed you have to worry about

or there's just someone else you'll be yelling at for going down but at least you know me

[median steeple]

The goobs

[sterile stone]

I ain't even gonna put you through that

I ain't stopping til I get this damn penance

[gray ice]

you might as well play zealot then

cuz you finna die a martyr doin this shite

[sage river]

Boutta find out if this is ruined or not

[gray ice]

womp

[fleet zealot]

womp womp

[spare talon]

on floor above demonhost

it aggros me somehow

[gray ice]

get rotated

[spare talon]

spend 3 minutes kiting it and chipping away at it, bringing it to my team so they can help kill it
they actively spend the entire time ignoring it

idk i would assume partway through that whole thing they would realize "this is a winnable fight" and actually help but nope

seems not

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Just use a chainsaw, heavy sword, devil claw or anything else

Stay sane

[sterile stone]

[median steeple]

They have mental battles every time they see each other

[ornate bone]

i had a mental battle rn

just decided to do a quick malice run for some plasteel to upgrade a wep

full team of 30s and they kept dying over and over

💀

iv seen bots do better

[coarse dagger]

you should have offered to kiss their booboos)

[cerulean moth]

REPOST

[fleet zealot]

oh shit really?

sorry

[cerulean moth]

https://tenor.com/bCM1Lay5b1.gif

[fleet zealot]

i will nto change

[cerulean moth]

Redeem urself

[fleet zealot]

nope

[cerulean moth]

I see how it is

entering your slop era

[ripe chasm]

It's still an adorable ferret

[fleet zealot]

that's what i think of you

[zealous ravine]

what perks for flamethrowers?

[sterile stone]

Pubs.exe

[fleet zealot]

25% damage to flak, maniac, unyielding

any 25% damage perk besides infected will be fine as well as 10% elites or 25% carapace

[tropic harbor]

Blaze away

oh wait perks

nevermind

no perks are good. If Hadron gives you perks just say "no that's goss" and give it back

[zealous ravine]

thank you thank you

[coarse dagger]

give them to me)

[spare talon]

what is more flexworthy
twins hardmode insignia
or atomas elite guard insignia

[fleet zealot]

what is the elite guard one again

[sterile stone]

Since when did the flamer have knockback?

[fleet zealot]

hardmode twins might be gone in the future too

[spare talon]

auric maelstrom with 0 downs teamwide

[fleet zealot]

it always had stagger, especially on left click

[sterile stone]

I mean the enemy

[fleet zealot]

oh, for a while

[sterile stone]

I tried sliding into it

And got force pushed back

[fleet zealot]

yea his flames before they hit the ground do that

[cerulean moth]

Both

Gold on Gold

As of right now the title probably goes harder, but only if its bright yellow in game

[sterile stone]

Atoma elite guard is by far the hardest

Cause it's a penance completely out of your control

It's entirely reliant on others

[spare talon]

i nearly did it twice
with randoms

[sterile stone]

If you're a good player

[sterile stone]

I've nearly done it 10 times in the past 5 hours with randoms

That doesn't change anything

[cerulean moth]

elite guard is surviving the mealstrom mission right?

[sterile stone]

Elite Guard is no one going down on a auric maelstrom

It's a penance that basically says

[cerulean moth]

ye im tring t get that one

[sterile stone]

One of you fucks up

You all fucked up

[spare talon]

its like a flawless raid in my favorite game, destiny 2

[sterile stone]

Basically

[spare talon]

free to play on steam, xbox, and ps4

[sterile stone]

It's hard to do cause the average player is dogshit

[cerulean moth]

Scab only. No ammo. Ascenetion riser.

https://tenor.com/bWDdI.gif

Im not runing that shit

what are the easier maelstroms I should snipe? any suggestions?

[sterile stone]

There is no easier one.

Like I said

The difficulty of the penance is not solely reliant on you

It's your group as a whole

You can play flawlessly

But if goober trooper on your team decides he wants to face check a crusher

You're opted out the penance

Cause you didn't baby sit them hard enough to not go down

[cerulean moth]

does Alt f4ing before I die work then?

[sterile stone]

What....

[cerulean moth]

If I alt f4 out of the match. Will the game reset my progress

on the penance

[sterile stone]

What penance are you talking about?

You've lost me

[cerulean moth]

Oh sorry. Its the penance where you have to complete 5 auric mealstrom missions in a row without dying

[median steeple]

The ass

[still quartz]

Just find a premade

All the premades on this server are tryhard enough

[sterile stone]

You can just leave

And as long as you leave before your character full dies

IT doesn't reset progress

[cerulean moth]

https://tenor.com/t3or.gif

FUCKS SAKE

I WOULD HAV E BEEN DONE WITH THIS SHIT ALREADY

[sterile stone]

It's one of the easiest penances to cheese

Yeah lmao

Like if you don't think someone is coming to rez you

Or you bar is getting close to death

Just quit the match

[cerulean moth]

here I was fucken trying snipe easy mealstrom mmodifiers

[sterile stone]

Is saves progress

[cerulean moth]

UGHHHH

thank you

[sterile stone]

But then I gotta talk to "Them"

[median steeple]

The vox channels scare me

[cerulean moth]

you all need to be adopted by a extrovert in VC or some shit

or get a mini me who talks for you

[ornate bone]

lmao

[median steeple]

Nah there are some genuine freakazoids in those VCs

[cerulean moth]

yeah and you need to embrace themm

baby

[median steeple]

I remember as soon as someone left the channel after we stopped playing someone instantly joined

Bro was FIENDING to join

[cerulean moth]

ill be honest i haver never scrolled down further than the stike part VCS

I didn't know about the 4 person VC limit

[median steeple]

I remember when we got a decent chunk of zeal chat into one of those VCs

[cerulean moth]

zealot chat gang

brings tear to my eye

I was gone for a while. I hope it's insanity hasn't weakend to much

[still quartz]

I remember my first couple of premades when I was learning how to play Damnation

This was like a month after the game came out

Dudes were pretty chill

But I did not shut the fuck up when it came to callouts xd

They definitely didn't like that

[heavy arch]

im in a mael with 3 knife mains

save me

[still quartz]

Nah save yourself

Shoulda brought your own knife

Smh

[cerulean moth]

My first and only VC here was with this player who was viet and couldn't comprehend that I was down to play with them and thought I had some ulterior motive

[median steeple]

Lmao

I respect his paranoid grind

[ornate bone]

do ppl que auric maelstrom

[heavy arch]

ya

[cerulean moth]

They were a girl so maybe that was why. Which is why i comforted them by saying vietnam isn't real over the course of the 5 matches we played

instead of being a weirdo of course

I am a Ally.

[sterile stone]

I'm gonna say trhis

As someone who's job is talking to people irl

People are fucking dumb bro

And you become less inclined to wanting to talk to people after dealing with dumb people all day

Otherwise

I'm a social butterfly

[calm salmon]

me working retail

[ivory marlin]

People are dumb as shit

[calm salmon]

Sometimes you get the absolutely most out of left field "I really, truly need therapy" discussion

[ivory marlin]

“Do you guys serve ice cream”

[calm salmon]

sometimes you get told its the governments fault that mars is red

[ivory marlin]

Nah bitch we dont

[sterile stone]

One of the worst

Was a customer trying to gaslight me about policies set up

And I who had been working at this place for years right

Had to go look it up incase I was actually wrong

Nah

Deadass lied to me to try and get what she wanted

[ivory marlin]

Bruh

[sterile stone]

Like bruh you didn't think I'd go look this shit up

[cerulean moth]

I hear that alot, I don't know if im lucky or if im the dumb one. Because I don't meet to many dumb ones

[sterile stone]

[ivory marlin]

I hate dumb customers

Or people who don’t tip

Someone ordered 40$ worth of ice cream and tipped .50$

[sterile stone]

I don't care about tips, dealing with wealthy people has made me realize tips are a luxury at this point

And I'm just greatful I get paid a decent amount

[ivory marlin]

Tips are how i eat

So i kinda care

[sterile stone]

Different professions my gamer

[ivory marlin]

Real

Idk where you work

[fleet zealot]

Tipping culture is made to divide the working class

[sterile stone]

I'm a male escort

Jk

[fleet zealot]

I mean uhh uhh not politically or anything

[sterile stone]

[ivory marlin]

Id believe it

[sterile stone]

Hearing stories about people getting offended you offer to tip them in other countries

Is wild

Like it's a sign of disrespect in some cultures I guess

[ivory marlin]

Weird

[sterile stone]

Granted they get paid a living wage more than likely

[fleet zealot]

Be american, get shot, tip the shooter, taken to the hospital, tip the ambulance, tip the healthcare workers

[cerulean moth]

tipping is kinda worming its way into australia which is annoying. Happily they have raised the minimum wage recently

[ivory marlin]

I make 10 an hour so i like tips

[sterile stone]

When someone threatens to call me a ambulance after getting hurt

[ivory marlin]

Might get promoted soon tho ao hopefully my wages increase

[cerulean moth]

ten an hour in freedom money?

[fleet zealot]

I hate it cause im broke but also disabled so if i wanna treat myself i have to worry if i get the food delivery driver from hell who will fuck with me if i only tip 15%

[ivory marlin]

Yeah

[cerulean moth]

I read that as who will fuck you

[sterile stone]

Isn't minimum like $15 in some places?

[cerulean moth]

wtf

[ornate bone]

More like $7

[ivory marlin]

Im the third highest paid crew member
