i wanna see my armor

zinc talon
#

I've had one guy punch me off a terminal when I was level 10 and another guy (both with eastern characters for their name) use all 3 barrages in a small map defend

#

380 then 120 then walking then 380 then

spare talon
zinc talon
#

if you live for long enough the cape will get all tattered

#

I've lost maybe half of it but it takes a minute

#

two maybe

maiden path
#

i want no cape!!

#

on some real shit

maiden path
#

i need me an odst mod

zinc talon
#

so the latest news flash in the ship says that the sec ond galactic war is now on for us

#

fighting both fronts

zinc talon
#

and that close to 100% of the able bodied population has volunteered

maiden path
#

i have to kill all those fucking bugs

zinc talon
#

that's uh

undone pewter
#

Capes make you the helldiver there is no no Cape option.

zinc talon
#

oh, and high 70% of almost-able bodied people too

#

that's uh

maiden path
#

i dont want my fucking cape

#

!!!

undone pewter
#

All men, women and children over the age of 7 will help fight

zinc talon
#

indicitave of us being on our last legs as a faction

maiden path
#

im killing bugs and blowing up robots im a helldiver enough

zinc talon
#

like we're already defeated we';re just gonna die shooting

maiden path
#

u aint gonna look at me and go 'no cape, he's not a helldiver'

zinc talon
#

not good

#

there's a cape that's like

maiden path
#

even without our feet we still got our hands to hold guns!!!!

zinc talon
#

as long as your shoulderblade one side and your butt the other

#

it's caddywompus on its length

maiden path
#

wow this game takes awhile to load

zinc talon
#

orange and black so prolly democratic detonation

maiden path
#

that or i just hit an inf load

zinc talon
#

load into mission?

#

stuck on the pods going down?

maiden path
#

i loaded in during extraction

#

and fucking crashed into the extraction ship 😭

zinc talon
#

did it uh

#

did you uh

maiden path
#

yes i leeched

#

on accident

zinc talon
#

oh not that who cares gimme free stuff

#

not your fault you matchmake at the end

#

did you pop the ship

#

or kill the ppl inside

maiden path
#

how do i quickmatch into starting games

#

i was trying to im not gonna lie

zinc talon
#

well first of all

maiden path
#

but i didnt kill anyone

zinc talon
#

turn off fucking crossplay immediately

maiden path
#

u got it boss

zinc talon
#

then all your games will be with PC players

#

and it won't be so hectic to join

#

one thing to note tho, when you turn off crossplay for whatever reason your social menu loses entire windows

#

friend requests and I think recent players

#

so turn that on to send friend requests then turn it off again

#

console players get what they deserve

maiden path
#

waht did they do

zinc talon
#

once that's off, you can reliably load into 75-80% of the games on the board, even at 3/4

#

they dared to think they were people

maiden path
#

is it a pc loading into console issue

zinc talon
#

and vice versa

maiden path
#

i have a ps5 like 15 inches from mer

zinc talon
#

and also there are so many new console players right now, the matchmaking goes haywire

#

cuz it can't update the map fast enough to keep up with all the quickjoins

#

so every mission you see is almost always full and/or private

#

with that off it's just pc players and the map can keep pace with who has a spot for you to join

#

plus pc players are hands down better at the game

#

and can TYPE

maiden path
#

thats not fair to them!!

#

how do i type

zinc talon
#

chat? press enter

#

wait you're not on a ps5 are you

maiden path
#

why is there a level 95 here

#

no

#

it was cheaper on steam i think

zinc talon
#

what tier are you playing at

#

he might be helping the rank 9, could be buddies

sterile stone
#

Or creds

zinc talon
#

if it's like difficulty 6-7 that rank 9 is gonna get mulched without a lifeguard

#

I heard a good one for farming actually, I don't do it cuz man it sounds boring

#

but you get your own campaign, get one mission finished

#

then swap to a 12 or 15 minute mission that's got a tiny compactyed area for pickups

sterile stone
#

I mean it's better than darktide

zinc talon
#

go grab what you can, and right before the timer ends you crash outta the game

sterile stone
#

Atleast you CAN buy the premium content without spending an additional penny

zinc talon
#

you keep all the SCs and medals etc you picked up

#

but the campaign reverts to the start of that mission

#

and the pickups are always in the same place

#

so if you get a juicy map layout you can just run a memorized track and crash, keep your resource pickups and revert the mission to start

zinc talon
#

oh he'll be fine, so will you

maiden path
#

how do i not fight automatons

#

everytime

zinc talon
#

choose the yellow sectors

#

on the right

maiden path
#

quickmatch keeps putting me in automatons!!

zinc talon
#

the global condition right now is everyone gets gas strike artillery for free

#

so essentially you bring 5 calldowns

#

plus gas is fuckin top tier

#

and slept on

sterile stone
#

Okri you're gonna have to give beb a moment

#

Bro's brain running on windows 98

zinc talon
#

you need to move from the planet you're on, to a terminid planet

#

do that by picking a mission campaign on a yellow sector planet

maiden path
#

how do i do the headbutt

zinc talon
#

you'll FTL there, then just back out of mission prep and hit quickplay

#

it's an emote you get from the warbonds

sterile stone
#

Via warbonds

zinc talon
#

I tunnelvisioned waiting for a job to start and fired off like two pages of whatever I thought of right then

sterile stone
#

Lmao

zinc talon
#

starts about here

#

maybe a lil before

sterile stone
#

I need to get back into the game

zinc talon
#

yeah it wasn't just two pages lol

sterile stone
#

Been a minute

zinc talon
#

yeah the new stuff is hands down great

#

not really any bugs or mission glitches either

sterile stone
#

I heard the newer guns ain't in their final stages

zinc talon
#

some bugs will stand in place if you bait them a certain way

sterile stone
#

Planned on coming back once they get fixes

zinc talon
#

and the game still instacrashes

#

naw they've more or less worked them out

sterile stone
zinc talon
#

the big one was the airburst launcher, when it debuted it was left click to kill the whole team

#

unironically

#

it's been fixed and is now a ton of fun to use

#

just, fire it fuckoff down the road

sterile stone
#

I fucking loved that thing

zinc talon
#

mines are really useful now as well

sterile stone
#

The dual auto cannon mech hasn't released yet has it?

#

Nor has the APC or Warthog type vehicle?

zinc talon
#

one inciendiery field got me my new top score without any added shooting

#

36 I think

#

I think the actual thing they did is reduce the damage blasts do to your teammates

#

and increase how much damage you don't take being prone when an explosion you're too close to goes off

#

that'll save your ass so hit the dirt whenever you're about to get pasted

#

artillery and airbursts especially feel a lot more forgiving than before

sterile stone
#

Yeah I heard fire at one point insta killed

#

Like it got severly overtuned

zinc talon
#

still mostly does

#

it ticks maybe twice a second and takes maybe 10% each time

#

I get that all you have to do is dive to put it out immediately but sometimes it can take you a second and a half, two to dive

#

and that'll kill you

#

the big bile spitters are also silly stupid strong

#

but that's timing the dive

#

don't dive until they start to spit, and dive at a right angle or forward, and away to the side, of them

#

anything else and they'll catch your pinkie toe and take unironically three quarters of your health

#

you hve to dodge after they start spitting cuz they'll pan their head mid-spit and catch up with you if you dive too early

#

cuz when you hit the ground after diving you're immobile for a moment, so you have to maximize your airtime distance to avoid them turning their heads at you while puking

maiden path
#

how many medium missions do I have to do

#

jesuis

#

ive done like 5

meager turret
#

For what?

maiden path
#

Welp did a 400k damage Auric Heresy with a chainsword

Yall remember when they did surgery on a grape

meager turret
zinc talon
#

Very well could be, I got mine very quickly before I even knew what was going on around me

maiden path
#

wtf...

#

samples are so scarce jhesus

#

how am I supposed to get 50 of these fuckers

lean lark
#

by playing the game

maiden path
#

yes

#

but it gonna take 400 milion hours

tropic pelican
#

More spawn on the map the higher the difficulty

ivory marlin
tropic pelican
#

There's also a strat for a drone that recons the whole map so you can see em on radar

#

But you may have to do an op to unlock it

#

Oh wait, is this hd1 or 2

#

I scrolled up, you still get more on higher difficulties but nevermind the rest of my advice

maiden path
#

ok fuck u too super earth

#

this looks so cool

#

do I have to complete the first warbond thing

#

to unlock the second one?

obsidian prairie
#

1000 each

#

Only 100 random credit drops

maiden path
#

but i can get them for free

#

easy as pie

obsidian prairie
#

Yeah

maiden path
#

how does this game not have an ODST armor mod

#

it has a helmet mod for ODST

obsidian prairie
#

Just takes a damn minute though

#

By the way I recommend Cutting Edge first, solely for the Sickle

maiden path
obsidian prairie
#

It’s the one with the lightning effects

#

Blue

#

Very blue

maiden path
#

wtf!!

#

but robot arm......

obsidian prairie
#

That one also has the best sidearm though

#

Robot arms and big iron

frosty herald
#

The best primary

#

The dominator

Is this good or bad i forget

fyi Likes Vs Dislikes on JP video is 10% to 90%

zinc talon
#

when you find your feet and start running 5+s as a minimum people start really tracking samples

#

I usually extract on a good mission with 10-15 commons and 5-10 rares

#

super samples are their own chapter don't sweat those at all yet those will come at tier 7

#

I'm gonna run a couple jobs if you're still playing

#

oh. Huge QoL boost if yall weren't doing it already: When you don't have the client loaded, and use the right click context menu on your steam friends list to join a friend's game, the client skips playing the intro movie, skips loading you into your own ship, and skips you matchmaking in-game and waiting for it to go through

#

the client loads directly into their ship, first order of business

#

it might be the fastest friend-join I've seen in a game, it's impressive

#

it's even quicker to crash out of your game then right click join them in the steam friends list than it is to leave your mission and matchmake over to their ship

frosty herald
#

You run high difficulty missions

#

Beb is going to be level 7 doing impossible lmao

zinc talon
#

that's why you don't LET HIM KNOW EARLY so I can COAX HIM IN?TO IT and RECORD THE SCREAMING

zinc talon
#

taking people who're just getting into the game into tier 5-7s is straight comedy gold the entire time

frosty herald
#

7 is a good spot for difficulty

#

But like darktide some very underprepared people do the difficulty

meager turret
frosty herald
#

I have had multiple 10+ people join my lobby

#

I wont kick them

#

But i already know theyre needing to be carried

meager turret
#

I don't mind inexperienced players and even find it kind of fun when they randomly pop into my aurics. But woefully selfish goobers are something else I'd rather avoid completely

lean lark
#

because thats a weight you cannot bear

#

i have simply accepted that if i am playing with randos if i die the mission is over

Lotta people that dont pick you up or shoot a dog infront of em

cyberpunk 2077 is unrealistic in the fact that rock stars still exist and havent been replaced by ai

Best knife for zealot ?

steep flame

the first one i think

long kelp
#

Mk3 ?

quaint verge
quaint verge

Then mk3

#

Mk6 is mostly decent on horde and elite

#

You can add haymaker for mk 6 and get funny elite kill once in a while

#

Since its heazvy are most slashes instead of stabs

#

H3 then punch goes to stabs

#

H3 is a stab as well

hey i need two opinions asap, what is the most fun zealot build

marty paul goes hard too

hard nexus
#

martyrdom thunder hammer

earnest cypress
#

i'd like to complain about the turtolsky heavy; idk why it doesn't decapitate enemies. Only two things that do that reliably in zealot are the axe and the catachan sword

#

i feel like the turtolsky should be dismembering when i swing it, not limply shoving a poxie two feet to the side

vague wing
#

What does it mean when it says that mask of the vengeful changes player voice? is it just new voicelines or a full out on new voice for everything?

oak ermine
#

either voice muffling or amplification

vague wing
#

aah okay ty

wintry forge
#

what build does the heavy swords work best in

south folio
#

anything where you have your carapace damage covered by something else

#

since that's the only particularly sore spot of the hswords

#

e.g., if you're running fury of the faithful, go ham

coarse birch
#

Id also maybe take unyielding damage, hsword isnt terrible but can be a bit slow into not plogryn just in case you need to solo or nobody brought boss damage

noble ingot
#

How exactly do I do this? If I have only two Wounds, as long as I stay below 50% HP, I'm fine, right?

frozen glen
#

yep

noble ingot

would be nice to do this one today, I'm only 10 points away from the final drip chadgryn

coarse birch

Curious

Im seeing a pattern

south folio

what he's done

hushed knoll

Arco needs to be exfoliated with volcanic beads

frozen glen

there is no incident

coarse birch
#

Maybe?

coarse birch
#

You probably told me at some point

hushed knoll
#

I legit love the body wash with shell pieces in it

south folio
#

i'll do you one up

#

i'll show you it

frozen glen
#

if he brings up a clip from 5 years ago

south folio
#

the deep evilness of REEVGERSI that he hides

coarse birch
#

99% chance i agree with redverse

#

I didnt even have an incident and you want me dead

wintry forge
#

what does the heavy sword do different than the devils claw swords, other than their special attacks

south folio
#

better base stats and better blessings

hushed knoll
#

Arco do you like cold soup

frozen glen
#

arco having to contain all this hatred in such a miniature vessel must be real difficult

#

is that why you spread your evil to so many innocents

south folio
#

i like soups of the dessert variety cold

frozen glen
#

its a clip from 5 years ago

#

kill arco

south folio
#

kill REEVGERSI

#

annihilate him into dust

Holy shit I’m eating stained glass rn

frozen glen

arco is evil

nimble fiber
#

lol

south folio
#

i am a product of my environment

coarse birch
#

(Realistically this is unfortunate)

south folio

whereas people like redverse are irredeemably evil and must be killed

frozen glen

arco still thinks of that one kid in preschool that took his icecream

coarse birch
#

However this is one incident

nimble fiber

#

i still remember the kid in preschool that bit my finger so i bit his whole arm

south folio
#

there was some 1st year in highschool messing with me at the school yard so i smeared my saliva over him

#

i contemplated licking him but decided that my hand will do

nimble fiber
#

man ice cream would hit different rn

wtf lmao

coarse birch

Why did you admit to this

#

Did he stop at least

south folio

.......................

south folio

i only did it since i didn't want to get in trouble for violence

nimble fiber

I dont know how to feel about that

coarse birch

Does this mean

#

🤨

south folio
#

I am a sworn pacifist 😇

nimble fiber
#

I dont want ice cream anymore

frozen glen
#

his wickedness is rooted deeper than i thought

#

its an inherent trait for him

south folio
#

i believe in non-violent ways to handle people

coarse birch
#

Yeah ok

nimble fiber
#

like a dance off

south folio
nimble fiber
#

arco did u battle dance with people

coarse birch
#

You threatened to put me in a volcano

south folio
#

no

south folio
#

nowhere in that sentence are words like "kill" and "murder"

nimble fiber
#

could also be a volcano bong

coarse birch

Ngl if arco challenged me to a dance off he would win id off myself instead

totally harmless

what is a good answer to such a question

what am i supposed to say

coarse birch

Arcos not nearly cool enough for that

south folio

i feel as if a metaphorical gun is pointed at me

nimble fiber

literally nothing

arco isnt one from a womb

he is an amalgamation of the world's malice

What perks/blessings should I aim for in the hammer when doing the crucis 1 shot build as a zealot ?

#

Im currently running Matyrdom with the hammer too

frank night
#

Greetings mankar

abstract quail
#

notice a lot of high level zealots bring throwing knives while also bringing a finesse secondary like revolver. Is it to kill nurgle blessed elites or something that I’m missing? Seems redundant in hindsight

drowsy steppe
#

grab the backstab node at the top right also

#

and the node that adds 20% unyielding damage

wintry forge
#

do you guys have builds where you don't actually spec in that 20% unyielding damage

ember yew
#

it also depends on melee weapon

wintry forge
#

knives feel way too good to pass up

#

killing annoying specials with one tap of a button is such a big convenience

frosty herald
#

you havent heard about immo grenades

ember yew
#

if you are going a melee that can use momentum node, you can then go for fire grenade, which is million times more useful than a knife, especially on overcrowded maelstrom mission and even better with +Blitz

#

but not all weapons allow to pick fire grenade and not suffer some heavy losses

wintry forge
#

i like the other two nades but i feel like if you use throwing knives well, you usually wont really find yourself in a position where the other two nades shine

ember yew
#

im too lazy to write a long answer to that

wintry forge
#

but yeah ik different situations makes the blitz choices shine

south folio
#

fire on ground go brrr
but yeah the top-right branch is so good

both are good choices and good in certain situations

#

just different ones

south folio
#

on most builds, I don't have points to take +20% unyielding and that's one of the first things that i give up

ember yew
#

anoint in blood is so good too, i cry inside everytaem when im forced to give up on that

misty nova
south folio
#

alas, my piety knife build demands points elsewhere

ember yew
#

FS just need

#

to pump level limit to 35

#

like in Vermintide

#

but then they will nerf everything

wintry forge
#

what weapons makes anoint in blood worth taking for the breakpoints actually

summer tree
#

Level limit 150

Pog

Hmmm Eviscerator throwing knife

#

With bloodthirsty the knives should have 100% crit

#

Something to test later

zinc talon
#

I guess someone else could explain how/why but I've never seen a reason not to take it

#

unyielding is the armor class you're most commonly running up against to do your Big Brain Zealot Moves like field boss kill and noping crusher packs

south folio
#

crusher is entirely carapace

zinc talon
#

oh wait I meant bulwark/reaper

summer tree
#

My Brain is carapace

zinc talon
#

yeah mine too obvz

south folio
#

i always take these points in any build i run

zinc talon
#

twins are the only real challenge mission I can think of that don't use unyielding anywhere

south folio
#

so i only have 7 points to play around with depending on the weapon

zinc talon
#

and the one needed talent below that to get there, is a quarter extra shooting damage

south folio
#

on martyr, i opt to take good balance instead of purge, so judgement builds are the only ones where i have enough points and reason to take +20%

#

and piety builds never have the points for it

zinc talon
#

huh so you just mulch maniacs/flak/cara I guess and do what you can on the unyielding hits

#

I can see it

south folio
#

and i'm fine with being "good enough" against unyielding

zinc talon
#

I've tried out zealot several different ways since the careers update, but every spare point or branch I think I can pull gets me closer and closer to this setup

wintry forge
#

wtf mid tree chad

zinc talon
#

I just can't give up the bible thumping, corruption eating speed tank

wintry forge
#

ive never seen anyone take that aura

zinc talon
#

oh I swear by it, in places like twins/gas aurics it totally shines

wintry forge
#

what weps do you use with that build

zinc talon
#

it removes the corruption before it has a chance to build most times

#

Crusher's my most used go-to but I'll use the evis for a change of pace or if the mission's particular

wintry forge
#

ive been wanting to make a support zealot build for a while now

zinc talon
#

and I giggle around with all the other chain variants

#

yeah this^ crit cooldown reduction max recharge holy relic can turn the entire mission pacing

#

it heals, it stuns, it lols field bosses off ledges because it actually stuns 7 times

#

that and the stun grenades and you can push pause on the entire situation more or less every room

#

when the crusher or eviscerator swings with all the bells and whistles going, they're I think 85%

#

and each crit you cleave with is its own cooldown reduction

rigid trellis
#

immo nades and relic can go well together if you stun them in the fire

zinc talon
#

my crusher can take ten full seconds off per light swing if I'm really in the middle of it

ripe quest
zinc talon
#

lol

south folio
fleet zealot
#

Yea if im taking relic im taking immo nades

south folio
#

you're deranged

zinc talon
#

crushers are their own lil puzzle

plucky sparrow
fleet zealot
#

Need the extra damage when im channeling

wintry forge
south folio
#

showing a message with +20% only and not +25%

zinc talon
#

cuz when your crusher gets going, and they're ragdolling across the room, your powerups and light/heavy combos can chump a t5 grade in four, five, six hits

south folio
#

that screenshot carries with it an implicit threat

#

evil

zinc talon
#

but they've got that automatic mandatory 2.5 second stun immunity after they get up

fleet zealot
#

Crusher activated l1 doesnt stun crushers anymore on the first hit i believe

wintry forge
#

what could possibly be like

zinc talon
#

so the question becomes when do I knock this guy on his ass to kill him before he stands back up

wintry forge
#

the most supportive ranged zealot weapon

#

flamer?

fleet zealot
#

Not like that is a big issue tho you can just do it again

zinc talon
#

flamer or bolter

#

you can reach out and help your squaddies with the bolter when you get the rounds on target

wintry forge
#

i really wanna start using the flamer but man does it kinda

#

feel like ass

zinc talon
#

but that's the trick aint it

wintry forge
#

am i using it wrong or what

fleet zealot
south folio
#

hold rmb lmb and call it a day

fleet zealot
#

It’s reliant on mod scores 76% burn and 76% cloud radius

south folio
#

you probably won't enjoy flamethrower weapons in general

fleet zealot
#

For chaff you just do short bursts of rmb

rigid trellis
zinc talon
#

a while back I made a couple short videos with some explanation on how I gitted lurndt with the flamer

#

how to get more stacks with less fuel spent

fleet zealot
#

Also it isn’t that supportive because you have to take fury of the faithful to really make it shine

#

Fury of the faithful turns it from okay to amazing

zinc talon
#

which one's that

rigid trellis
#

charge

fleet zealot
#

Chastise

#

Ctw “upgrade”

zinc talon
#

oh, I thought we were talkin about bible thump still

south folio
#

still very good w/o chastise but it does elevate it to another level

zinc talon
#

cuz it's fantastic with the relic

fleet zealot
#

Yea i think biblethump and flamer isn’t good

zinc talon
#

besides the flamer's feelin a lot more feisty now that they reworked its stagger/suppresion with the left click puffity

#

you can use it to shut hallways and bridges up with just a couple puffs even over their heads

#

but it won't be, because the flamer puff goes through terrain and cover to an extent

fleet zealot
#

Puff is such a meme a this point it should just be pyro air blast

#

Actually, write that down for a flamer variant xd

zinc talon
#

heh it'll pop bursters too, first time it happened to me I was thankful I had on the brown pants

rigid trellis
#

damn blowing bomber nades back at them with a flamer puff sounds sick

fleet zealot
#

You can now airblast enemy grenades, making them friendly (the gas turns yellow)

zinc talon
#

nope, that was just me, you might want to keep moving

#

rebreathers, maybe

#

I haven't found much of anything for the alternate attack, only thing is a burster push

#

maybe an around the corner walkin into something

#

so I fit a flashlight as silly as it sounds

#

the cone of the light being projected out is like, a constant aiming reticle for where the cone of flame is going to be when I fire

south folio
#

is nice but we also live in a world where we have a lot of easily accessible stagger and also don't really have a need for it besides the deranged levels of stagger like nades/voc/trauma/smite

#

it comes up useful sometimes though

#

(this is pre-nerf ragers)

royal vortex

i miss old arco graphics where the entire room would be smooth

Are you guys saying Arco upgraded to an Intel HD 4000?

that be the LMB, which has more stagger than the RMB

#

Ye the mini game is whatever, but it's still an interregator objective that you have to sit and wait for

#

Especially with a knife you could scoot through the scans and push the skull probe way faster than it takes to wait for the next blister to pop

#

And if another teammate was doing the same and you weren't chasing the same scan targets it goes by in a flash

#

It only got real slow if the rest of the team didn't attempt to move between points and kept getting downed

ember yew
#

which means i need to run 2 laps all over the place
And with scans i can at least do it solo, but interrogator its super annoying when no one covers and the mission has some stupid modifiers that spawn berserkers and shotgunners non-stop (+other specials)

ornate bone

I tried substituting a crusher, but the director wasn't havin any of that

ten deaths in just the back 2/3rds of the mission after I crashed

indigo harbor
#

Any advice for a good Thunderhammer melee build?

hard nexus
#

or alternatively you can put on toughness on dodge

indigo harbor
hard nexus
#

preference really

hard nexus
#

of course

indigo harbor
#

Somewhat spoiled with dodges since my first character is a Psyker I run Force Sword on

hard nexus
#

lmao

#

yeah

#

if you're toughness on dodge is really good

#

arguably one of the best toughness talents

spare dome
#

you can do pretty well whatever you want with hammer, other than piety

indigo harbor
#

Only recently started my next character and realized those weren’t always unlimited

hard nexus
#

crit hammer will work one day trust

spare dome
#

you can kinda make an argument for it

#

just because crit cdr is so stupid

hard nexus
#

true

spare dome
#

but like, why hammer

hard nexus
#

why not hammer

indigo harbor
#

Because I think it looks fun, not other reason

hard nexus
indigo harbor
#

Ah sorry

hard nexus
#

no worries

spare dome
#

it's really blessings that hold hammer back

frosty herald
ornate bone
#

hard nexus

thrust and slaughterer are really the best it could have

oh i mean for the player

#

like building a hammer build

hard nexus
#

ohh

#

yeah

#

fair

#

its very dependant on thrust

spare dome

90% of that is just getting the right Hanmer lol

yah

spare dome

hanmer

i do like thammer but fuck me if Eviscerator doesn't just completely invalidate them rn, imo anyway

hard nexus

boss kill is really the only thing the thammer has going for it, compared to everything else

visual stream
hard nexus
#

showstopper

summer tree
hard nexus
#

ironhelm should 2 shot

#

but a crucius should easily one shot

#

it can deal half a boss's health in one hit, it should kill a crusher

#

especially when there are 6 of them

austere grail
summer tree
#

I hate weapon activations they're very unfun

#

That's all I'll say

hard nexus
#

a knife shouldnt be better against crushers

visual stream
summer tree
hard nexus
#

like, stunning the player character and the sound effect

#

its all

#

just shows how hard it hits

summer tree
#

The thammer should always be activated and cleave when activated

hard nexus
#

disagree

visual stream
#

Like my brain just shitposted a rough draft for a new hammer blessing where there's a blast in the direction that the hammer pops, either giving some stagger or damage to the enemies past the dude who got brapped

summer tree
#

I'm speaking lore wise

#

Not in game

hard nexus
#

hai okri

zinc talon
#

hi fren

#

howzit

hard nexus
visual stream
#

Not super interesting but it would have some use and is more interesting than the fiftieth iteration of "yeah erm you get +3% more damage"

hard nexus
#

there are instances (namely an animation for i think the inquisitor game) where its always active and hits harder

zinc talon
hard nexus
#

but then in other times, the thammer gathers energy and releases it all onto one target

#

with explosive force

visual stream
#

I'm sure there are plenty of things you can do with a fucking exploding electric hammer

summer tree
hard nexus
#

if it was a power hammer yeah

#

but its not, its a thunder hammer

#

which are different from each other

zinc talon
#

that could be a variant thing, that could be a hero's preference thing, that could be a plot armor thing, that could be a 30k vs 40k thing

#

space marine at least had it detonate like a crusher did

hard nexus
#

power weapons destabilze atoms or something like that, where a thunder hammer gathers kinetic energy and releases it all at once

zinc talon
#

and I think there were end-chain finishers, maybe, for single targets

#

space marine sucked compared to darktide though, total playstation 1 style step forward every attack so you can never sit still you must keep stepping forward to kill

hard nexus
zinc talon
#

kinda like show stopper

hard nexus
#

and help make up the difference between crucius and ironhelm

summer tree
#

Either way, hot take or not, I personally feel all the power weapons don't feel great to use, especially when I can't move when doing the long ass animation for some reason? Like apparently I can't do it mid swing?

zinc talon
#

which one falls short most time? I saw crucis got its activation snare removed like the ironhelm had at deubt

#

day 1, they were all long activation lock-on long duration attacks

#

that you couldn't dodge out of

visual stream
zinc talon
#

to give you an idea of the creative power we're working with

summer tree
#

Did any of you play the stress test?

#

Before the beta

zinc talon
#

I think so

summer tree
#

Remember the chainsword?

zinc talon
#

...vaaaaguely

hard nexus
#

slaughterer or explode, like a side grade to each other

zinc talon
#

something incredibly counter intuitive

#

that made me think the weapon was designed to get me killed

summer tree
#

When you could be sawing and move freely and dodge when sawing? But it wouldn't cancel the sawing unless you got further away than an arms reach

#

Then it would cancel

zinc talon
#

oh yeah

#

and you could turn to another enemy and saw them too if the first one died

summer tree
#

God it felt so much better

zinc talon
#

you'd just, move from one to the other

#

when the first died

summer tree
#

It felt so much better imo

hard nexus
#

the sawing should be like boltgun

zinc talon
#

I'm okay with the current saw damage is time spent sawing dependent process

visual stream
#

Another blessing idea for hammer, terrifying activation or something. If you kill a big target then enemies around it get staggered. Could even put a lil cooldown on it if you're afraid of it being too oppressing

hard nexus
#

where you can keep revving it to keep the saw going

zinc talon
#

I wish it was ramping instead of 4 ticks then one big if you got the end off

hard nexus
#

and for as long as you want

zinc talon
#

yep

summer tree
hard nexus
summer tree
#

You should be able to saw until someone is dead too

hard nexus
#

guys they're actually adding this all in the next update

#

god told me

zinc talon
#

when they finish making my chainfist, which I'm sure will be very soon now, I'm gonna talk to them about a new chain weapon activation process

hard nexus
#

trust

zinc talon
#

where left is your standard light attacks

obtuse stirrup
#

Thrust + bromentum would be pretty sick

zinc talon
#

alternate is your heavy wind-up attacks

#

and right click is a charge and hold

obtuse stirrup
#

if it lets the hammer go through multiple things

zinc talon
#

that you can use freely while moving

visual stream
#

Like if I see my brother in Nurgle get half-misted, half-flung twenty meters away, yeah I would probably be pretty fucking spooked

obtuse stirrup
#

or thrust + thrust

zinc talon
#

you activate and charge, and then swipe light or heavy

hard nexus
zinc talon
#

and the amount you've charged determines how long you grip and mulch for

#

could do it while dodging for example and step back in with a quick saw before getting back to it

summer tree
hard nexus
#

what new weapons did ogryn get?

zinc talon
#

prolly didn't want to have to animate it

hard nexus
#

the clubs/knives?

zinc talon
#

melee combat is tough to actually draw and render

#

whole body movement type stuff

summer tree
#

No other gun exists in lore but the Ripper and GG

hard nexus
#

oh

visual stream
#

Ogryn should get power caestus 💪

zinc talon
#

yeah the others are from maybe illustrations or undefined sprue pieces from tabletop

summer tree
#

Shovel I don't think they get, random pipe?

plucky sparrow
#

Power steel chair melee when

visual stream
#

Something with their fists would be really funny LOL

hard nexus
#

it makes perfect sense to give an ogryn one

plucky sparrow
summer tree
#

In lore

#

Tabletop I actually don't think they even get stubbers

leaden pebble
#

i wish ogryn had a massive two handed greatsword that was really just a big hunk of sharpened metal
but given its nature it’d be wayy too op

zinc talon
#

they have heavy stub guns for sure in the guard

#

which is where most if not all ogri filter out to faction wise

summer tree
#

Lore or tabletop?

zinc talon
#

can't honestly think of other factions that weren't oneoffs

visual stream
zinc talon
#

your melee weapon comes with a cooldown

#

when you use the cooldown, you rip something out of the wall or floor

#

and beat people to death with it

summer tree
humble dome
#

gib ogryn 10 rocks at the start of the match and no need of other funky shiny new weapons

zinc talon
#

the weapon eventually breaks, and you have to re-rip something out of the wall to keep killing

leaden pebble
zinc talon
#

but you get both rocks and bonks using the cooldown

#

sometimes 1h, sometimes 2h

#

always concrete and rebar

summer tree
#

The problem is giving the Ogryn long ranged melee would be incredibly OP

zinc talon
#

yip^

summer tree
#

That's likely the issue

zinc talon
#

the reach, is the existential issue

#

and how to actually animate it without ogryn swinging through the wall from the other room

#

and killing the vibe

summer tree
#

We already do tbh

leaden pebble
#

it’d be op but man id love to see a guts level sword or a massive kanabo type bonk stick
imagine the power

summer tree
#

Just imagine an ogryn greatsword though, 10 feet long

zinc talon
#

yeah but like corners, I mean he's swinging at something in his room and the 2h whatever is clipping through to yours

visual stream
summer tree
#

Just the cloud buster sword

zinc talon
#

I think a lot of this would be mended with the lifer ogri would be to reanimate one or two good looking both-hands swings into the other maces

#

as a step in the combo chain

summer tree
#

Imo they need to add a Mace that the weapon special is to hold with both hands

#

Just fucking annihilated something with an overhead

leaden pebble
#

a two handed strikedown would be incredible

zinc talon
#

yeah that's what I mean

#

your brunt's variants all 3 would have renimated dual hand attacks

#

that way everyone gets a 2 hand, and nobody gets a sword that reaches to the next zip code

summer tree
#

Dual wield maces, no ranged

zinc talon
#

let me pick my 1h melee with slab

summer tree
#

Spin like ricky Bobby when he's on fire

leaden pebble
#

what i wouldnt do for a melee only class in this game

zinc talon
#

dual cutters would be intriguing, and doable from a rendering standpoint

#

just different hackyslashies usiung both hands

summer tree
zinc talon
#

I'd like to see two handed weapons with offset swing timings

fleet zealot
visual stream
#

I think dual melee would be really hard to not be a throw unless you choose one of them to be the shield, sadly, but I would love to see it

zinc talon
#

or both hands operate independently but you have to have em both on a certain combo step to activate dual wield attacks

fleet zealot
#

lol they would never go that complex

zinc talon
#

being able to run through two combo chains at the same time swinging either hand

leaden pebble
#

dual melee would have to be suped up somehow to offset not having a ranged weapon

zinc talon
#

of course not but a girl can dream

fleet zealot
#

dual wielding will be like vt2, just a different moveset

zinc talon
#

likely

summer tree
#

Dual wield paul

#

Only way to fix it

zinc talon
#

gauntlet and slab would tide me over until the chainfist for sure

#

I could prolly even wait longer for them to finish making mine

#

they're on the tabletop, it's not an ask really

summer tree
#

Considering they've drawn a good bit from tabletop I agree

zinc talon
#

give back blocks, remove braced fire, keep falcon punch on one variant and guarded firing behind the shield on the other

#

and you've now got 3 shield variants and no complaints from the shieldgryn for a year

summer tree
#

If they add that just saying Ceramite claws would also be dope

zinc talon
#

no doubt

summer tree
zinc talon
#

preach

leaden pebble
#

id love to see some shield variants and some switchup in the meta so that spamming only heavies isn’t the most viable thing to do

summer tree
#

You should even be able to use GG and shield at same time

#

Just no aiming

zinc talon
#

it wouldn't be a huge undertaking, all cutters get one type of combo chain all bonks get another and each variant has a different alternate attack

kindred ivy
#

Quick one for y'all: is a weak spot damage/CHD/Shred Eviscerator bricked?

zinc talon
#

maybe not weak spot damage but the other two are peas and carrots

zinc talon
#

if someone could work their foot into the bottom of my throat and stamp down a cpl times I think I can fit another breakfast

you might try 5% crit for the added padding from 80? I think to 85 at full rip

summer tree
#

Thank god I'm not fat anymore so I can laugh at fat American jokes KEKW_ogryn

visual stream
zinc talon
#

and then I do carapace for the twins map and/or crusher heavy missions or crit damage increase cuz it's almost a guarantee in the law of large number ssense

#

but if you're using whichever evis variant has the extra help homing in on weak spots, weak spot damage is still a real contender

leaden pebble
#

i dont even laugh at them i just get sad lmao
the consumerism culture and the overloading of chemicals and addictive bs in our food is just kinda depressing

kindred ivy
#

Sorry yeah, I should have specified, Mk XV

zinc talon
#

my weak spot crusher or evis setup gets me 60-65%ish percent weak spot hit rate over the entire mission

#

on a good day

fleet zealot
zinc talon
#

so that means 85% crit, and 65% weak spot, ideally

#

you're weak spot critting more than every other swing

kindred ivy
summer tree
fleet zealot
#

oh crit damage and weakspot damage perks are both bad, they calculate terribly

zinc talon
#

oh

#

well I still believe

#

(bereave)

summer tree
leaden pebble
fleet zealot
#

much better with 10% elites or 25% to an important armor type, flak, maniac, unyielding, cara etc

kindred ivy
#

Alright, let's see if Hadron fucks up this next one, thanks for the input

zinc talon
#

yknow I'm honestly having a hard time finding a chain weapon that doesn't mulch all mutants with zero added help

summer tree
#

I dunno, maybe in cities dog but where I live now is pretty dope, local slaughter houses and farmers markets are very very cheap, houses are cheap, land is cheap

zinc talon
#

so much so I've swap to carapace on the axes and elite or unyielding on the 2h

#

happy for ya pal
