#

shotgunner knockback is bizarre because they push you into the ranged damage falloff zone

#

either works

#

go with what the heart desires

south folio
#

heavy sword but only because i am a meta slave

royal vortex
#

claw probably gets more raw breakpoints from crits than a hsword does

coarse birch
#

uh dclaw might get more value directly from piety but hswrod is better overall

#

so probably p similar performance into most things

#

other than elites

south folio
#

yeah i guess it's just dodges being so good that it's skewing my valuation of things

coarse birch
#

cause deathblow

oak ermine
sonic totem
#

Partial towards devil's claw cause of shred + parry. Will go with that then, thamk

royal vortex
#

blocking also needs some kind of offensive utility

#

there needs to be way more weapon/talent specific ways to make blocking help you kill stuff or just a general mechanic for it to do something more than it does rn

oak ermine
#

And there’s space to design impact/stamina things, but then we get a skill rework with very few interesting stamina interactions, dodges are still plenty strong, and impact interactions are even more boring than the stamina ones PepeHands

sonic totem
#

Wish blocking gave you a revenge meter like in For Honor. Just an AoE push after blocking "X" attacks in a row would be super neat

south folio
#

cdr on blocking OwO

coarse birch
#

no

oak ermine
#

If there will be any changes to the system, I doubt that FS will come up with a solution that would require adding a resource bar to players’ HUD

coarse birch
#

perfect block stuff could be neat too

south folio
#

prob just make it interact with ult cdr at the closest

sonic totem
#

Give every melee a parry

south folio
#

though we do not need more cdr at this point

sonic totem
#

Thunder Hammer parry when

south folio
#

+damage% on perfect block and whatnot

royal vortex
south folio
#

anything that mixes up the combat at this point

#

damn getting benefits for perfect blocking sounds neat

#

i want it

royal vortex
#

the 1handed human powermaul has a datamined blessing to do with timed blocks

coarse birch
#

yeah ive always felt that would be cool

south folio
#

i also just like trading in stamina to get benefits

#

i enjoy weapons with good push-attacks

sonic totem
south folio
#

ye

#

vt2 had perfect blocks right

#

so i guess they already have that figured out

oak ermine
#

As in, parries? Yeah

#

But the only reward the players got was increased stagger on whatever hit you

stable cypress
#

tied to weapon trait tho

oak ermine
#

FALLOUT NEW VEGAS figured out good rewards for perfect parries 13 years ago whatthefuck_heresy

stable cypress
#

that stealth elf class could go invis on parry iirc

oak ermine
#

But its design was intended to be rewarding in FNV setting

#

Where you rarely right 2+ enemies in melee at the same time (but it may vary from encounter to encounter)

south folio
#

as a duelling action, it would be neat to implement it as +damage% against the specific enemy that was perfect-blocked

sonic totem
#

Like a debuff on the enemy?

south folio
#

ye

sonic totem
#

I wouldn't mind more stagger as opposed to damage. Being able to knock an enemy on their ass or push back a monstrosity after enough perfect blocks would feel sick

coarse birch
#

more debuffs would be cool although idk what you add

#

they would also need to be better about signifying that a debuff is applied

#

most people will not be aware

south folio
#

and reduced push-attack cost after a perfect block

sonic totem
sonic totem
south folio
#

ah right that thing

#

just as a general mechanic that everyone gets would be nice

#

as a baseline so that you're incentivized to use push-attacks instead of them being very costly

lusty turtle
south folio
#

and cuz they're cool

lusty turtle
#

Is good

#

Unless its on ogryn

coarse birch
#

yeah i think forcing more PA

sonic totem
coarse birch
#

i like PA as is

lusty turtle
coarse birch
#

but making me use stam for more than sprinting

sonic totem
#

Ah, thanks

coarse birch
#

although i use it atm cause im running knife

#

so i PA and push a lot

south folio
#

a lot of weapons have 2-bar pushes

coarse birch
#

but that is one weapon

south folio
#

which is just so expensive

#

and the only reason why it doesn't matter is that stamina itself does not matter very much

#

but if stamina became more important, 2 bars is going to be be hefty

coarse birch
#

it feels like 2 bars was meant to make stam curios more of an option

south folio
#

augh

coarse birch
#

but it doesnt really matter

south folio
#

damn a world where you might actually take stamina curios

#

my god

coarse birch
#

cause half the weapons kill 6 dudes per swing and stagger another 4

#

so your never pushing

south folio
#

or just spamming dodges

lusty turtle
#

My 9 stam vet

south folio
#

i really love the push-attacks of both the power swords

oak ermine
#

But I'm already taking stamina curios on Psyker and Vet notnice

coarse birch
#

and he doesnt take deadshot

meager turret
#

Got a parry meme set with a barcode stamina bar

coarse birch
#

deadshot mk4 kant lasgun so that you actually have to use all the stam to kill stuff

oak ermine
#

(not up to 9 mind you, but one +3 is fine whatthefuck_heresy )

south folio

lusty turtle
#

20 stam cost a second

south folio
#

don't worry just stand in front of a gunner and regenerate it

lusty turtle
#

Ur so right

south folio
#

the bullets pelting your body are converted into ATP that your character can use

coarse birch
#

i should use my mk4 lasgun psyker build again but i dont dare use it in front of josho and arco

lusty turtle
#

Why not

left iron

south folio
#

you should ban yoshi

steel agate
#

what do u think would happen?

lusty turtle
#

Mk4 is fine

coarse birch
#

josho hates mk4

lusty turtle
#

Josho is weak

coarse birch
#

arco gives me shit for everything

#

so it matters less

lusty turtle
#

I should remove joshos crusher perms

your existence is a blight upon this world

he would probably call me deranged though

royal vortex

why would u ever use knife autopistol

nimble fiber

i wanted to use knife

and i also wanted to use AP

#

at the same time

this leaves me with limited options

You cant just say that to someone

my depravity knows no limite s

#

i should probs swap back to flak i think i had it on elite to test something

lusty turtle
#

Doesnt uncanny cover the flak dmg fine

coarse birch
#

it would ye

#

and im using knife for elites most of the time anyway

lusty turtle
coarse birch
#

dont look at me like that

#

thats what knife is for

you goofy

coarse birch

i have done nothing wrong in this context

#

would you prefer i run lacerate flesh tearer and light spam the hordews

royal vortex
#

of course

coarse birch

ngl i think i hate lacerate uncanny more than lacerate flesh tearer now

#

you are fundamentally not using one blessing

#

what are you doing

royal vortex
#

it doubles the bleed cap

arco converted me to fleshtearer precog

#

at gunpoint

coarse birch

arco runs fleshtearer riposte

which i actually understand on zelaot

#

i mainly run knife on psyker so stick to riposte/precog and uncanny cause i dont wanna drop assail for crushers

Surely spitz was talking from a position of knowing whats going on and not just making stuff up

frosty herald
#

One already deleted their entire twitter cause they said the psn requirement was to ban people better

#

the only way sony can fix this situation is by releasing bloodborne on pc at 60fps

solar gorge

sony hates islands for some reasons

void finch
#

Am I trolling if I don't pick Chorus? Seems really strong

spare dome
#

Nah.

#

I mean I wouldn't call it weak but its strength is kinda deceptive.

void finch
#

oh interesting, what would you say is the value of taking the other two?

spare dome
#

Much better damage and utility.

#

The fact that Chorus is the only active channeled ult in the game and it's tacked onto the most agile character really hurts

ashen pecan
#

the only damage u can deal with chorus is ledging shit basically

spare dome
#

Taking yourself out of a fight for upwards of 6 seconds for Chorus is not painless

#

And you definitely regret it when all you wanna do is dash at that gunner and punch their brains out

frosty herald
#

Use chorus in a horde situation

ashen pecan
#

i swear u can end up in weird scenarios with a mapwide stun where everything activates 'shoot gun now' at the same moment

#

same feeling when shotgunners just shit out of a door

frosty herald
#

Ive seen too many times that chorus zealots run up to a crusher and instead of killing it they just pop it and stand infront of the crusher doing nothing helpful

void finch
#

makes sense, thanks guys

tight scroll
#

honestly Zealot might have the best ults in the game tbh

#

your choice is either a way to get a guaranteed crit, a big ass CC AoE that buffs you and your team, and the ability to literally disengage as you require

placid fiber
tight scroll
#

Ive only ever stood in front of Crushers if there was more than just it

#

like a mixed horde or someone pulled some zerkers or smth too

placid fiber
#

We see crusher we go murder mode >.>

tight scroll
#

you basically get to put almost any enemy in time out for 5 seconds while buffing yourself and allies for the duration, it cam help deal with things sometimes

placid fiber
#

I've seen people use it very well before, but, I've never payed attention to the pitiful uses lol

tight scroll
#

also ngl one shotting crushers as a stealth knife zealot will never not be satisfying

#

I mean outside of fat fingering it

#

can you misuse Choir?

placid fiber
#

when no one is around and no enemies are around? :3

#

Outside of the range of the monster plowing your teammates? :3

#

Otherwise? Not really

tight scroll
#

I suppose yeah

placid fiber
#

It's tough to misuse

tight scroll
#

I mean Chorus or Choire or wtvr it is is literally just

press the funny button when enemies are near

#

gg

placid fiber
#

Yep

#

Very hard to fuck up lol

#

Meanwhile chastise: target enemy dash off of ledge

frosty herald

its def annoying

placid fiber
#

I don't doubt it

frosty herald
#

cause i help my teammates but also rely on them

placid fiber
#

There's bunches of bad players out there, after all, lol

#

I don't like using chorus, compared to the other 2 ults

#

It doesn't suit me very well, compared to the other 2

#

I am smart enough to use it effectively, but, I just don't vibe with it

spare dome
#

You can't really misuse choir but it is goofy. Like on paper it's ridiculously powerful. In practice it's 'just' strong.

#

To me the glaring issue is that it and VoC are the only gold toughness generators in the game, and Choir compared to VoC is ... poor.

#

But VoC is just fukken stoopid stacked

shell shale
#

i mean choir is really just a loner VoC when you think about it

Shit needs fixin'

i like overtoughness

maybe make it so overtoughness doesnt regen

#

You can get knocked out of the ult during the cast, too.

fleet zealot
#

Should be an activation, not a channel. Make delay between pulses longer to compensate

spare dome
#

Meanwhile Vet can do it without even interrupting their reload, they have half the cooldown, and 50% more uptime with zero commitment lol

stable cypress
#

I mostly just wish it didn't have the mandatory point tax

spare dome
#

That too. Only ult in the game that demands a two point investment to travel through

She was sitting on my chair, so I decided to throw it on top of her lol

I have a weird idea and I want to check.
Can I build a corruption resistant zealot for dedicated Grimoires duty?
My idea is pretty much take the beacon of purity passive, then just stack Grimoires resistance on all 3 curios.

#

Not 100% sure, tbh, past a certain point

fleet zealot
#

Also zealot doesnt really care about grim corruption, it’s your psykers and vets that do

It's the most negatively reviewed paid game on Steam.

either way the game was unlisted from steam in 177 countries

most of the world just gone

frosty herald
#

sony made the choice to have the game available for non psn countries

undone pewter
#

Or steam did it's not clear

fleet zealot
#

population wise it isn't that major but it still sucks

#

steam was clear that you needed a psn account, sony being the publisher, is the one who gets to do changes to their store page and should have set up a region lock like they have now

frosty herald
median steeple
#

considering one of the most populist nations on earth cant really play the game yeah its pretty major

undone pewter
#

sorry I misread there I thought you were talking about delisting

frosty herald
#

steam removed the countries without psn because steam absolutely hates legal trouble with the website

median steeple
#

steam is prob not happy rn

frosty herald
#

theyre pissed as hell probably

median steeple
#

since they probably got a load of tickets and shit

fleet zealot

steam nor arrowhead is happy

But in the end people bought a product being told you'd have to sign up for a service, and then learned they could not. And that sucks but it isn't a criminal act.

I have a question about the Duellist talent. It says '+50% Weakspot and Critical Hit damage' but what does that actually mean?
Is it +50% overall damage on a headshot/crit, boosting both base and bonus damage, or is it just +50% bonus damage? I'm pondering if I should get it for my crit eviscerator build but AFAIK the eviscerator has garbage finesse bonuses so Duellist might end up doing basically nothing for me

south folio
#

weakspot/crit dmg only bumps up the bonus damage, and it does not consider base damage

twilit cloak
#

so for a weapon without a finesse bonus its kinda trash?

south folio
#

p much though it is still a respectable bonus

twilit cloak
#

i c. I'd have to move my tree around a lot to shave off 1 point for it but I'm not gonna bother now

south folio
#

as a perk, it's pretty poopoo since those hand it out as +10%, but +50% is something to consider

#

yeah it's less critical of a point to take compared to knife and whatnot

L4d2 only exists now as a vessel for dumb mods, which is good

best to do would replace both blessings, HT+ slaught or thrust (clear vs single target)

Alright so them perks are fine? I won't change anything rn cuz I go with the iron hammer build currently so no blessings earned for this wep yet 😛 thanks

perks you want flak, maniac, elite, unyielding

fleet zealot

that's why i said bricked

Ah

it's just that blessings matter more on chain axe than perks

you want uncanny+ riposte, precog, or executioner

fleet zealot

if you wanna force bleed, go uncanny flesh tearer

sterile basalt
#

uncanny + riposte/precog
executor a bit inconsistent

fleet zealot
#

lacerate is bad because you lose more damage from not using the high weakspot damage than applying bleed

flint veldt
#

but 1 or 2

fleet zealot

and ruthless is bad because uncanny strike is just better and works for all your damage

and people are just assuming a crafting overhaul cause that's the big issue

ripe quest
# misty mason I can't remember if they've officially said

Following this, we are working on an overhaul of our current itemisation process. With the new system we want to remove a lot of the unpredictable grind that came from an RNG heavy system whilst giving players more agency and a steady manner to progress toward specific loadouts, blessings, and stats refinement.

Although these are significant portions of each update, this is not our full plan for 2024. We will be adding new elements to Darktide throughout the year as well including (but not limited to) new missions, new enemies, new weapons, new conditions, and new features alongside balance updates, quality of life additions, along with some other surprises which we will share in due time.

polar nexus
#

blessing rebalance i fink too

fleet zealot
#

they said few months from the penance update but i don't trust fatshark to be fast, and the final deadline they gave was end of the year

#

it's itemization so it could mean anything and everything

ripe quest
misty mason
#

There we go

polar nexus
#

dan!

misty mason
#

Yeah wasn't sure if it was still the most obviously true rumour, or if they mentioned it officially

polar nexus
#

they said each update

ripe quest
#

I do find it funny that lately I've been seeing stuff like "There's been a lot of cope about a possible crafting update in the future" despite it being explicitly mentioned by Fatshark.

polar nexus
#

so multiples

yes, but the overhaul will likely be a big update

#

I will forever miss the unique interactions tho but you win some you lose some

misty mason
#

I kind of think they did the penance update because the broader system will feed into the crafting update

fleet zealot
ripe quest
#

Best part is that people are moving to DRG and are also being met with that content drought.

misty mason
#

Like it's pure speculation, but it wouldn't surprise me if they let us unlock blessings by doing penance style things with the weapon

median steeple
#

Drg is about to get a new season at least

frosty herald
#

Didnt they promise 4 new primaries for season 5?

ripe quest
#

no

misty mason
#

Kill 250 enemies with powered swings for pcycler 1 etc

fleet zealot
#

that would suck ass

#

for some weapons

ripe quest
#

iirc they said they made a system that is very annoying to add weapons to. Season 5 iirc is just that new mission, a new cosmetic pass + tree, and a load of QoL.

fleet zealot
#

like, earning BM1 on combat axe

#

or thrust on hammer

misty mason
#

The fact that the new system is tied to a battle pass style reward track is the main reason I think it could go that way, but it's literally just me musing at this point

median steeple
#

Comes out In June

fleet zealot
#

yea i get where you are coming from but...

frosty herald
#

I was sure of it that 4 primaries were coming

fleet zealot
#

it would be impossible to balance around some weapons

ripe quest
fleet zealot
#

and some blessings would still be wildly op

ripe quest
#

Also they really like having balance be within a certain range, so it'd just be so much work for their balancing team. That's what it sounded like at least.

fleet zealot
#

hey you want Brutal momentum? one shot 100 enemies, now do it 40x for bm 4

They had some real pistachios to make a cloaking enemy called the Stalker with this timing, even looks similar.

a game literally 2 minutes ago with caxe martyr

#

i can hit low 500k

#

but never seemed to go over 600k

delicate shadow
#

damage totals really just depend on how chaotic the run is+duration

rocky marsh
#

run 4,5,6 i hit low 500k

delicate shadow
#

and ofc how much your allies are doing, there's only so many things to hit at any one time so if your allies are pulling their weight the damage distribution will reflect that

spare talon
#

the worse your team, the better your damage

#

since youre having to pick up their slack

rocky marsh

oddly enough run 2 with 31 minutes no one hit over 500k

you can hit 1 mil, i think the hgihest i've seen was 1.2mill from an ogryn

it just requires hogging a lot of damage lul

rocky marsh
#

in my region i havent seen anyone hit a mil

fleet zealot

but as long as you aren't dying, and aren't the lowest member on your team by a lot, then you are fine

i've hit mills before but those games are utter slogs where i'm doing most of the work

median steeple

just being a warm body is more useful than a lot of things you could be doing

coarse birch
#

yeah i think the only time i hit 1.4 mil was a 50 minute game

rocky marsh
#

im pulling this out of my ass but i believe the raw highest i hit was 800k with psyker but thats psyker

coarse birch
#

highest ive hit in a normal game where i was just carrying was 1.1 mil but ngl if you hit those numbers then something is probably wrong or you picked ogryn

rocky marsh
#

wtf

#

are you guys clutching

#

or just carryimg

coarse birch
#

the 1.4 i think i was hard carrying a melee maelstrom and as i sadi

#

50 minute

#

i forget if i carried the 1.1 million game

royal vortex
#

last time i hit a million was this duo run

coarse birch
#

oh i actually think i hit 1 mil with you josho when we did double knife but i was psyker

rocky marsh
#

but the other guy got 700k too, thats total of 1.7 mil damage

coarse birch

thank you assail

ill see if i can find my 1.4 mil scoreboard

so both guys will get 800kish damage

it was melee only maelstrom

yeah these guys were uh

waht build were you running

that was blazing trauma ds4 so about as broken as it gest

rocky marsh

oh no wonder :v

which is why i dont actually regard it as impressive as it looks

rocky marsh
#

yeah i think 1mil BT is

#

just another tuesday in this discord

coarse birch
#

heres a duo run that isnt 1 mil from either of us

rocky marsh
#

anyway whats your highest for zealot?

little thicket
#

I actually think the damage output is mediocre

rocky marsh
#

non duo

coarse birch
#

zealot is like 800k probs?

rocky marsh
#

wtf

little thicket
#

Mainly due to the timeframe

#

1.3 mill in 53 minutes is 24k/min

coarse birch
#

but thats just memory i havent saved a scoreboard for just damage in a while

royal vortex
#

i died like 8 million times

coarse birch
#

i dont remember this one

#

to be honest

rocky marsh
#

this is my absolute best in like idk past two days

my brain wasnt used to darktide fov and i was just strugglin

coarse birch

i was just kinda abusing trauma lol

spare talon
rocky marsh
#

this one is funny, 23 minute a5mael and no one hit over 300k???

coarse birch
#

also josho i think this is the one time i did better than you in a duo run

#

i wont count the double knife but i had assail

royal vortex
#

oh thats the game where a mauler and a crusher walked out of a closet

coarse birch
#

that was a good game tho

after i pushed a burster and it didnt det

and then a flamer pushed it at me

oh

that does sound familiar

stupid in what way

coarse birch

multiple honestly

royal vortex
#

tbh i think the main problem is smite should kind of have the same impact on a build in that it lets you have a tool that does cool stuff and is just generally kinda helpful

#

and its not

#

and it's just super stupid with how it works

rocky marsh
#

thats why i run smite and never use it :v

royal vortex
#

there was one time i took a long break from using the crusher and i camer back and i was like "wow you literally just shut these dudes off for a few seconds with stagger and you have complete control over what your next move is"

#

and that was such a cool thing to experience for a "first" time

rocky marsh
#

i feel if anyone use smite might as well play another game

royal vortex
#

but it requires u to kinda know what u wanna do after

#

smite is just boring and invalidates any other form of cc

i dont even like playing with good smite psykers anymore

cause its like

i dont need to fight things properly
