neat drum
#

Trahs either way

zinc talon
#

and then once you've used a couple weapons and know what you want your playstyle to b e

neat drum
#

Mostnfo the stuff you get pre 30 is trash

zinc talon
#

orange yourself 3 curios towards that playstyle

ionic spear
#

funny to ssee a 270 that bad

zinc talon
#

heh I mean I like it

#

it's very almost exactly middle of the road

#

it'd be a useful test weapon to compare against 80%s later on

#

to see how much this stat or that stat really affects the swing

#

what tier missions are you running and feeling comfortable start to finish in

ionic spear
#

i keep changing stuff around

#

tier 3 missions rn

#

heresy not feeling good

zinc talon
#

that's where it really starts to ramp up yeah

#

a thing to know goin forward, the biggest difficulty jump going to the next rank higher is that the enemies move faster, so they chase you down in less time, and their swing animations are quicker, so you have less time to block

#

it becomes a reaction time challenge more than anything

#

the flipside is, going back down a rank to take some pressure off makes you feel like you're a demigod

#

cuz you're used to the faster pace of combat

#

so if you fail a 4, run a 3 and you'll be bonking the best on the team

ionic spear
#

im decent on psyker able to do auric damn but zealot just feels so weird

#

so bad

zinc talon
#

brunt giveth, and brunt taketh away

zinc talon
#

which weapon have you been using on the zealot

haughty haven
#

i'm good with psyker too but that shit's like 3 addy hits and your dunnn

zinc talon
#

that's a big impact on how you fight

haughty haven
#

yeee psyker is enemies are lava, zealot is face first into situations you'd normally die in as psyker

ionic spear
#

evi , thammer and whatever i can get from emp gift

spare talon
#

thunder hammer is really not an easy weapon for general play
like that shit is hard ngl

zinc talon
#

if you have an eviscerator mark 15 (XV) that's a great place to start

#

the light attacks are horizontal, heavies are overhead single targets

haughty haven
zinc talon
#

the weapon feels really organic to use

haughty haven
#

i'm still tryna perfect the sideswipe heavy

#

btw i kinda miss the cleave from wrath

#

it's alot safer

#

it only staggers shit but it staggers alot more shit

zinc talon
#

o-ok...

amazing

bro got the

haughty haven

spare talon
#

no way
ive always wanted the

but yall

spare talon
#

you gotta show some gameplay off

zinc talon
#

then I got the

spare talon
#

can you do the thing where it

zinc talon
#

dammit, same screenshot

#

well it did it to the b lue too it was funny you may now laugh comedy was achieved

haughty haven
#

this is singlehandedly the most hilarious convo ever had in any warhammer related discord

zinc talon
haughty haven
#

ever

spare talon
#

you lied about getting the

zinc talon
#

I was tired of living that lie

spare talon
#

shame.... shame...

spare talon
zinc talon
#

I want to come clean about th-wow youreally can't use that phrase anymore

spare talon
#

lmao

zinc talon
#

falter seems like it'd be nice

#

but it doesn't actually dink the stuff you want to jostle

#

maulers and crushers and the like

spare talon
#

and high voltage literally is a blessing

zinc talon
#

everything else was already gonna stagger anyway

#

haven't seen that one once

#

think I'm gonna blue all the brunt's I get just in the hopes

spare talon
zinc talon
#

hadron has been pretty somewhat kinda nice about 3's and the occasional 4 on blue

spare talon
fleet zealot
#

auric damn is a rhythm game in disguise

zinc talon
fleet zealot
#

constantly flipping between gun and melee based on sound and visual cues

haughty haven
#

i'm kinda fucking loving this evis xv

haughty haven
#

i've mained hsword 6 and the crusher and this is pretty stronk all around

zinc talon
#

what does this sentence even mean

#

it reads like the portal advertisement

#

fires 60% more bullet per bullet

spare talon
#

it means shock them

hard nexus
spare talon
#

so it is a much more effective and longer stun

zinc talon
#

so the stun, is the shock attack several seconds long electrocution thing

south folio
#

when they spazz out yeah

spare talon
south folio
#

it's confusing because there's the electrocution debuff which is the electricity you see, and then there's the stun debuff

spare talon
#

id just need to know what map im on

hard nexus
#

what map and wait til you've like

#

entered it

surreal shore
#

can someone tell me how agni works?

hard nexus
#

agni?

surreal shore
#

like what is the combo you guys use for crusher

hard nexus
#

avatar reference?

#

agni kai?

#

oh

surreal shore
#

yteah agni shock maul

hard nexus
#

idk

zinc talon
#

wonderful

#

okay but hear me out

#

what if I stun everything

south folio
#

i just heavy light for single target and light heavy for crowd

spare talon
south folio
#

huh neat

hard nexus
spare talon
hard nexus
#

wha

spare talon
#

with 0 stacks, it has a shorter duration and no damage, but still counts for high voltage

hard nexus
#

so is the shock from normal attacks just visual?

spare talon
#

and 0 stacks are what is applied from normal attacks

#

meaning those work for HV

hard nexus
#

ohhh

#

okay

#

i get it now

#

one day ill try out a shock maul

#

they seem kinda

#

meh imo

spare talon
#

all stacks drop upon duration end unlike bleed, which only really matters for the taze and other versions of the shock

hard nexus
#

dont have an effective enough single target method for me

spare talon
#

they also have almost no armor mitigation

hard nexus
#

okay well in my defense i dont like thinking

spare talon
#

they just deal a subpar amount to unyielding

hard nexus
#

oh

#

neat

vestal spade
#

This thing bonks

hard nexus
#

hrmmrhm

spare talon
#

this is with high pen

hard nexus
#

oh damn

#

so thats like

#

almost full?

spare talon
#

thats why the rending vs staggered talent, opportunist

#

is complete bait

hard nexus
#

damn

#

i might have 2 try out a shock maul sooner than later then

fast tiger
hard nexus
#

gonna need 2 get bored of psyker duelling sword 4 first

zinc talon
fast tiger
#

because of rending damage conversion at 100%

unique elbow
#

Indignatis or Agni for Zealot charge build?

spare talon
zinc talon
#

agni

#

cuz I just made one

spare talon
#

since he plans to add sauls to his crusher guide

zinc talon
#

oh cool

spare talon
#

so we were trying to find out specifics on the exactly how they work

zinc talon
#

why smite doesn't synergize with this maul is an abomination before god

spare talon
#

like the light attack electrocute seems to be tied to stagger force

zinc talon
#

blue lightning and purple lightning don't have to be enemies

spare talon
#

so it works for basically all human sized enemies, but not ogryns, not without some extra help from impact boosts

#

but you can just taze them and that works

zinc talon
#

does the electrocute or whatever status change that applies the sparkly effect to the things you hit, do anything by itself

#

is that just the electrocute being applied

spare talon
#

the blessings that apply it stun them like smite does, and offer an irrelevent dot

hard nexus
spare talon
#

the light attacks that apply them only offer a visual effect and mark them as electrocuted

#

for about 3ish seconds

vestal spade
#

What you guys think of the new bolt pistol? Im having heaps of fun with it

zinc talon
zinc talon
#

and high voltage the blessing is the only thing that builds upon that debuff?

spare talon
#

yeah

spare talon
#

so realistically its 25% damage on every subsequent hit on nearly every enemy

hard nexus
#

referencing that

fast tiger
#

okay well

#

at least it’s a reference

#

was like wow we’re reverting to femboy zealot chat comparable hours

vestal pine
hard nexus
#

femboy zealot chat was peak

#

hello lacerate

zinc talon
#

are any of yall getting by using a shock maul without feeling like skullcrusher is an existential blessing

LMFAO

zinc talon
#

I'm glad they think so

vestal pine
#

vet is strongest after the vet mains complained that sealot is peak

#

after its been dethroned 2 years ago

🤔

zinc talon

people should love their class's abilities

and I'd agree with them

but then we'd both be wrong

you mean you dont like lower dps and total damage for the low low price of one of your blessing slots?

Hehe

well until they do

so they can for sure lie

vestal pine

doesnt mean hes proud of you now

fast tiger
#

well we don’t talk as much now because I don’t live at home so he likes me more

zinc talon
#

OH MY GOD

vestal pine
#

lmfao

#

he sucks

zinc talon
#

YOU CAN KNOCK ENEMIES UP IN THE AIR WITH AGNI L4

#

THEN PUSHBLOCK FOR THE UNDERHAND

#

AND HOMERUN THEM TWICE

fast tiger
#

lil uns get to launch too?

vestal pine
#

silly okri there isnt a aircombo in thid game

zinc talon
#

naw the agni shock maul

zinc talon
#

l4 is an underhand that at the right angle will pop em up in the air

#

but every other attack after is an overhead

spare talon
zinc talon
#

EXCEPT PUSH ATTACK

#

you can pop em up, then push attack and send em sailing

#

oh you uh, you're a high energy physics enjoyer huh

vestal pine
#

slide and then attack

#

paul also got one this patch

spare talon
#

stabbing someone to the head with a knife will not ragdoll them, so as they play the stumbling death animation you can then punch and send them flying at mach 10

zinc talon
#

and two shot everything but mutants and ogri

#

okay so I get the agni push attack

#

it's meant to follow an overhead because the reaction staggers generally double the enemy over somewhat

#

and the underhand comes right up into the head

#

it pains me push attack isn't on the weapon damage table

vestal pine
#

its like crusher attack

#

but the angle is sharper

#

and idk if it does good damage

#

cause crusher did bonkers

maiden path

swag on this bitch

#

i alt tab'd during a match and my fucking game crashed

spare talon

i really need to use the crusher again
after fatshark deleted fun from the game and all

and it did the most damage out of any attack when charged up to armored weakspots specifically

does anyone wanna help me run glass palace raid 🄹

It's shit

i use it over brumentum

but its also cause shields dont get any stagger blessing

thunderstrike was a

guys

thunderstrike

#

was a blast when I was using it

red mesa
#

are mods working, or do i need to do the special thing i saw a fatshark rep tweet about?

zinc talon
#

especially on the power maul, because the detonation lays stacks of skullcrusher and thunderstrike both on everything it even jostles

zinc talon
#

you could walk in and paste some poor idiot in the middle of the room and the whole place would suddenly take double damage and impact

north sedge
#

Special thing?

zinc talon
#

mods have been working fine for me today

#

my client was freezing with no pattern for long enough for windows to think it'd crashed

#

but it would come back like it never happened except I'd have to reconnect

#

if they've changed something I haven't noticed any difference

I can check real quick

News to me

in the mods folder

nothing's changed on my end that I can see

fatshark was cooking when they added barrels to the cliffside beginning of the new map

#

two recon lasgun users have blown me up so far

#

one into a daemonhost, and now another off a cliff

to be fair those barrels are asking for it

yea i don't even have a excuse for that, there wasn't anything there for the mutie to toss you too

#

usaully i'm able to go "oh there is a ledge there that isn't accessible to players but the devs forgot to turn off muties thinking there is a safespot there, that mutant just hated you

wicked lance

spare talon

mutants always being the least threatening specialist
until they decide to be the most threatening

spare talon

their best use is absolutely melting groups of elites

with a mod

wicked lance
#

what mods would be good?

#

bc i was trying it out in the meatgrinder and it was not great

spare talon
#

?

wicked lance
#

yar

#

wait

#

im slow lol

fleet zealot
#

well mod scoreis important for flamer

#

you want 76% burn and 76% cloud radius

wicked lance
#

u said the mod for the third person and i thought u were calling blessings mods

spare talon
#

i meant mod as in like a game mod
that you install for 3rd person

fleet zealot
#

high ammo, and damage and mobility doesn't matter

wicked lance
#

ok wait

#

im genuinely stupid

#

i thought u said flamer needs a blessing to be good

fast tiger

you’re among peers

Difference between the two honestly ?

fast tiger
surreal shore
fast tiger
#

brain fart mb

spare talon
# wicked lance i thought u said flamer needs a blessing to be good

both specific stats of the weapon and a specific blessing are what really carry it
burn requires 76% burn, as that reaches the maximum number of burn stacks that can be applied to enemies, and each stack exponentially has increased damage per tick, making it quite a big jump
cloud radius is actually the flamers range, which you can alreadty tell why thats important
the blaze away blessing increases your damage as you keep holding the trigger, which effects the damage of the burn, allowing for up to 40% more damage as it ramps up

haughty haven
merry flume
#

wonder if fs released all the weapons in their current state because they know they're gonna get multiple essays about exactly how they need to be fixed

surreal shore
#

But yeah does anyone know the combo on agni then ,

spare talon
#

however it is important to know that you completely lack any long range capabilities with the flamer
so throwing knives instead of a grenade is almost mandatory to compensate that weakness

haughty haven
#

it's my weapon for killing snipers and gunners so i don't mind a lil preaim

#

what do i want with a crit blessing on HH?

fast tiger
spare talon
#

still best in slot for the flamer tho

fast tiger
#

ya def

spare talon
wicked lance
#

nono i meant like thats rly good

#

lol

#

imma try to somehow get that blessing

spare talon
#

it ONLY comes in tier 3

haughty haven
#

serious question

#

what other than crit do i want on vraks mk3

spare talon
#

just warning you now before you bash your head against the wall trying to find a t4 version

wicked lance
#

gotchu

haughty haven
#

i have opening salvo

spare talon
#

ive seen too many people get so frustrated about that lmao

spare talon
wicked lance
#

i appreciate it but i really have no clue what im doing lol

spare talon
#

like by a long shot

haughty haven
#

DA?

fast tiger
spare talon
#

headhunter deadly accurate

haughty haven
#

surgical is literally fine for what imma use it for

spare talon
#

you definitely want headhunter

fast tiger
#

well it sounds like you have a 1/4 even if you are fine with surgical

haughty haven
#

nah man i hit stuff

fast tiger
#

opening shot is not worth

spare talon
#

and its due to how headhunter and crit chains interact with the vraks 3

#

if the first shot in the burst is a crit, the rest of the burst is also a crit

#

however

#

the 2nd and 3rd shot in the crit, despite being a crit, also restack headhunter

fleet zealot
#

this is what beastmen fear

spare talon
#

meaning realistically youll be critting every other burst to the head AT THE WORST

fast tiger
drowsy steppe

and its adm on crit makes it literally actually a good weapon against crushers when used this way

3 burst HH is decent vs most things but it's a bit slow vs specials and dreg ragers

drowsy steppe

is not having good aim

ember yew

good times

fleet zealot
#

it's worst vs maniac but you just slap on maniac perk

vestal pine
#

i like

#

vraks 7 the most

#

vraks 3 is a meh in my book for now

fleet zealot
#

vraks 7 is great on vet

#

vraks 3 is good on zealot and vet

fast tiger
#

vraks 3 is so good on zealot

vestal pine
#

i have a good roll vraks 3 on zealot

fast tiger
#

a good roll will shred elites and specials

vestal pine
#

i dont like it that much idk why

fleet zealot
#

outside of dance with death I think vet pumps vraks 3 much harder and with much less oppurtunity loss

vestal pine
#

it melts BoN tho

#

and plagryn if you can aim right

drowsy steppe
#

yes you just need to have good aim

#

to hit headshots

oh yeah

so i guess the question is

zinc talon
#

oh that fucking square on the left

haughty haven
#

redo both blessings and just keep the weird crit perks on it

zinc talon
#

if anybody knows what that is I beg of you

haughty haven

or redo one perk and one blessing and just live with surgical

zinc talon
#

it's there even with mods disabled

it haunts me

This thing would be awesome if it's defense and first target values were swapped

I cannot stand how HDR burns out my snips

all of this will be gone

in just 2.5 months

if FS will fck up with convertations it will be time for review bombing i guess

erm dont get it

oh snap, we can change item stats too?

#

okay okay let me read the thing

spare talon
#

What Happens to My Existing Inventory?
When designing itemization, we wanted to commit to ensuring fairness for all players, new and old. As such, we’re implementing a migration system to convert players’ current weapons and blessings into the new system.

Here’s how it works: The blessing library of the weapon family will be converted into mastery progression. This means players will start the new systems with a head start in mastery, giving them the chance to unlock previously owned blessings (as well as the chance to unlock some blessings players never had before the update).

Our aim is to preserve players hard-earned progress and make this shift as smooth as possible.

vestal pine
maiden path
#

doint worry guys

#

we'll be able to directly buy the blessings we want for aquilas!

#

2100 aquilas for thrust iv!

vestal pine

heard rumors about it being similar to penances

ember yew
#

The blessing library of the weapon family will be converted into mastery progression.

zinc talon
#

wait

vestal pine
#

if its anything like loner penance or other hard to do penances

zinc talon
#

they're taking away Gear Mountain...?

vestal pine

its still better compared to something like kill 200 enemies far away from the team with backstabs

zinc talon

yeah but even so, it'll be doubled up with weekly contracts and penances both

I get it's another grind but we have like, three going concurrently already

if anything it'll be more job-to-job and something somewhere will advance every mission so to speak

An entire ult per swing or two is unmistakably a cancer for balance and shouldn't exist, never should've been allowed. Crit CDR now meshing more with high attack speed makes nearly every finesse weapon more compatible with the crit CDR rather than it being in favor of high cleave. This gives knife more room for crit CDR (as it was one of the worst options for it prior), every finesse weapon is still really well-meshing w/ crit CDR, and nerfs performance for stuff like Hsword and Evis where they probably shouldn't have meshed as well as they did.

ripe quest
# vestal pine ..worst?

3-6 cleave is terrible for OG crit CDR. It never meshed well with it, and was counter intuitive with the usage of a knife. You aren't ever light spamming fodder to spam ults, the damage you got was pitiful and you wasted damage by light spamming. There were setups to get it up to Caxe level but then you have a shit knife that can't ST like any normal knife can (usually Executor + Haymaker/Riposte). Compared to literally any other weapon it was definitely the worst meshing w/ crit CDR.

#

Now, you can use it for single target and get very competitive crit CDR, as it isn't reliant on cleave. This is infinitely better than what it used to be for the knife when comparing finesse weapons.

# fleet zealot 50% on weakspot hit is not 150% at 5 stacks

yee but now it's +25% impact vs. +50% on weakspot hits. Grievous Wounds hits decent stagger BPs, I used it over Punishement on some builds (namely Agri Railgun w/ Ironhelm Thammer) as it hit really solid BPs for ragers in particular. With late changes I'd need to refresh what the BPs are looking like.

you talk like hitting crit swings requires any effort

fleet zealot
#

20% crit chance on weakspot hit stacking up to 5 times, refreshing on crit (except the 2 rounds at the end of the burst will count as non crits for headhunter? so free 40% crit chance even if you crit) and deadly accurate is 100% crit weakspot damage

ripe quest
# vestal pine and i assume any of the high cleave weaponry had fast attacks as the knife, then...

Chainsword, Dclaw, Hsword, Caxe, Taxe, Crusher, Mk II Evis. Mk XV Evis had insane cleave values for crit CDR and the lights let you hit a full ult per swing. Knife doesn't have nearly enough attack speed to bridge the gap of just base cleave values, let alone what they get to with blessings. Especially with shit like Chainsword which hits enough attack speed to quite legitimately not give the animation enough time to show you the model on lights and has Savage Sweep/Wrath available w/ higher base cleave, it's just not really a contest. Crit CDR changes helps knife significantly, as before it wasn't meshing correctly with the build it was designed for.
