There's no compensating for the weapon deciding to yank the aim off to Disneyland

i hate these fuckers. Ruin my breakpoints

#

why cant I cleave through you grahhh

grizzled aspen
#

I hate them because their only purpose is to mix in armor at head level to stop cleaves.

#

Thus, the bromentum dilemma.

Exactly

Khorne modifier speeds up enemies and gives them +1 armor tier

If I explode you get two blue guihelbies, you want that?

frosty herald
#

Slaanesh heal overtime and give you a small damage buff

#

Nurgle is just the blessed stuff

#

Chaos undivided is maelstrom modifier with all previous modifiers

#

Slaanesh definitely speed buff

Khorne drains your health as long as you aren't killing

Man, the bolter video on Reddit sent people a completely different message

Fuck's sake, they're so fixated on bolter stats that they ignore the bug I slowed down the footage for and outlined twice Sitgryn

Zzz doesnt really have a deep combat system

#

Wouldve been cool with jumps and air juggles

ember yew
#

and god knows for how long it will be able to keep people entertained with just only repeatable daily/weekly/etc activities

frosty herald
#

They gotta hire dmc's combat director

ember yew
#

they surely can afford one

frosty herald
#

Wuwa got a vergil easter egg

ember yew
#

but i guess that one will work on Honkai 4

#

they already confirmed new honkai game

#

and i was thinking that ZZZ is technically Honkai 4, it's basically a copypaste of design

#

no open world, arena stages

#

better, but similar combat

#

ZZZ is the going full meme with no brakes version

polar nexus
#

They listen too much to streamers. God I try to use mauls but I just can't.

frosty herald
#

Strange combos and timed blocks seems like its strongest gimmick

grizzled aspen
#

I have no issue using shock mauls.

spare talon
#

i dont know if its the shock mauls being weird or if they just dont click with me

grizzled aspen
#

They actually feel good to use, to me.

spare talon
#

cuz im just ASS with them

grizzled aspen
#

Try the agni one, it's very simple.

spare talon
#

if im going to use the agni im just gonna take the next step and use the crusher

grizzled aspen
#

For zealout, yeah, that's valid.

#

I was meaning for psyker and vet.

frosty herald
#

Ill just use forcesword or powersword

ember yew
#

i'm aint gonna use flamer

#

and as finesse weapon they didnt even added Shred to it

#

so you are stuck with skullcrusher/HV

Coming back from a hiatus and looking forward to trying the new weapons;

What are the important breakpoints for the new double barrel and bolt pistol? They're slow and punchy, so break points are a lot more important than on most

Hello! I wanna play Zealot more effectively but my build kinda sucks, I'm between level 28-30 and I'd like to know some good builds for supporting my teammates!

vestal pine
#

you wanna support teammates by killing enemies, giving them golden toughness and staggering everything around once per minuite, or going in stealth and backstab the biggest enemy there is

errant mountain
#

Hey everyone- I was wondering what the best blessing and perks are for the new shock mauls?

#

Specifically the indignatus

fleet zealot
errant mountain
#

both IV

#

Perks I got were- 4% crit chance and 25% flak

fleet zealot
#

thrust isn't too good since SMaul is more about repeated hits and doesn't hit good single hit BPs

#

flak is a great perk but crit chacne isn't

#

can't go wrong with maniac, elites should also be good,

errant mountain
#

I used 1 slot for the flak so either get rid of crit for carapace or get a new blessing

vestal pine
#

i recommend HV more than skullcrusher

#

mostly cause skullcrusher is quite annoying to proc

fleet zealot
#

nah

#

skullcrusher is up to 80% damage

#

if you have trouble staggering enemies just go grievous wounds and/or punishment talents

dark zealot
vestal pine
#

idk ragers dont get stunned that much

south folio
#

on the other hand it's pretty big damage to everything else and you can take grievous to hit a heavy stagger bp

vestal pine
#

fair point

south folio
#

the uptime is counterbalanced by the massive damage bonus it confers

vestal pine
#

i still dont put it on the top since it doesnt regularly stun the big ogryn enemies reletively

south folio
#

it also being a debuff is technically a benefit though something i dislike for damage hoarding

#

you'll still need to special to stun ogryns anyways

#

and hitting them while they're spazzing out if going to proc skullcrusher anyways

#

basically similar to HV at the end of the day

spiral anvil
#

manstopper in shop, rewarded for doing nothing chadgryn

south folio
#

i don't really see much of a difference

vestal pine
#

idk why

#

during the stun animation it does 100/180% damage

#

on a 50/50 basis

#

imho HV is more reliable

#

yes it does more damage

spiral anvil
#

does HV work on bosses

#

i never tried to tase a boss before

south folio
#

ah right the tase ticks damage so i have to mod the healthbar mod to separate things out

#

guh

#

the numbers seem correct to me at least in the psykh

fleet zealot
#

well the way i see it , perfect timing is a must for in depth emlee combat

south folio
#

114 base, 114 * 1.4 = ~159 and 114 * 1.8 = ~205

i honestly feel like the bolt pistol is garbo

#

like what does it do that the pistol cant? 🥲

fleet zealot
#

go bang

#

it's more of a vet weapon

#

vets can onetap crushers with it

mint brook
#

how?

misty nova
#

AoE Stagger
C'mon ask a harder question

mint brook
#

zealots main issue is dealing with range, basically every tree makes him annihilate everything that comes close

#

if he has a weakness when talking about range vs melee, its defs his ranged capabilities

fleet zealot
faint cape
#

Toughness on dodge + chastise, gunners are no longer an issue

misty nova
fleet zealot
#

you can get it to the point it will function for sniping specs/elites

misty nova
#

Too bad the pistol doesn't have the same Cleave as the Boltgun

mint brook
#

give me the loadout so i can test that out in psykanium

#

cause i can not even remotely reach a damage threshold coming close to a oneshot

fleet zealot
#

well on crushers lol no

#

not on zealot

misty nova
fleet zealot
#

idk what to say deadly accurate+ surgical

mint brook
fleet zealot
#

well you should ask vet chat xd

lusty oar
#

it’s deadly accurate with executioner’s stance and marksman’s focus and the rending subnode

mint brook
#

that thing needs a buff anyway

lusty oar
#

plus rending and ogryn damage

mint brook
#

there are way better weapons than that thing

faint cape
#

The just need to get rid of the god awful long drawing animation for bolter and it is fine

vast basin
#

Mag dumping boltgun is the optimal way for a zealot to use it imo

mint brook
#

the bolter needs buffs beyond the awful draw time

vast basin
#

Okay? You don't need to take all the ammo if you have a brain

#

And just use knives for the draw time

mint brook
#

and why should i use the horrendous boltgun when i can just use other much less taxing horde clear options?

#

or just ... use melee

#

arguably the best quality about most if not all zealot builds

vast basin
#

Because you are a zealot, horde clear is easy

fleet zealot
#

no one is advocating using bolter for hordes xd

#

you mag dump it cause you need to clear the armor infront of you for weaopns like dclaw or hsword

mint brook
#

pistol just outright outshines the bolt pistol

vestal pine
#

so ferret are you fine with me now after hearing that statement

mint brook
#

same goes for the bolter gun getting outshined by basically every other horde option

vestal pine
#

ill put this in a language you can unserstand
do you use rumbler for hordes

mint brook
#

wanna hordeclear? Agrapina/columnus/flamethrower are by far better

fleet zealot
#

which pistol lmao

#

auto pistol

#

las pistol?

#

revolver?

vestal pine
#

bistol

fleet zealot
mint brook
fleet zealot
#

no one is saying bolter is a horde clear weapon and out of all those, only flamer is used for horde clear anyways

vestal pine
#

oh did you really thought

#

boltgun spamming was for hordeclear

#

kek

mint brook
#

to mag dump it into hordes

vestal pine
#

good luck with any of the options you listed into spamming into crusher packs

#

fotf nerfed babaaaaaaaaaay

fleet zealot
#

no one said that lol they just said magdumping

#

which is basically only for crushers and bulwarks

vast basin
#

Yeah no one said mag dumping hordes

mint brook
#

you wanna tell me you actually wanna magdump into a singular enemy?

vestal pine
#

uh, i said crusher packs

vast basin
#

You mag dump a crusher or bulwark pack so that you can melee effectively

fleet zealot
#

yes

#

dclaw, hsword

#

specifically

vestal pine
#

also bulwark packs is not optimal

fleet zealot
#

it's not optimal because bolter sucks

mint brook
#

i SUPPOSE that is an argument i can not put my money to

vestal pine
#

4 shots to break the shield stance, its just better to bait and magdump kek

fleet zealot
#

and by sucks, they balanced it around being a vet

mint brook
#

cause i use weapons that deal well with armor

vestal pine
#

fuck you ferret i like my bolter

fleet zealot
#

they moved around bolters stats and now it has the stats of a precision weapon

#

that wants headshots and crits and careful playing

vestal pine
#

hm

mint brook
fleet zealot
#

zealto specifically wants a bolter to magdump

vestal pine
#

slug shotgun was nerfed and it cannot kill bulwark with a single slug

vestal pine
fleet zealot
#

lol no one is saying kill bulwark

vestal pine
#

least my surgical bolter on vet is optimal now

fleet zealot
#

it's opening shield

#

jfc

vestal pine
#

ik

mint brook
fleet zealot
#

2 most annoying people

#

at once

vestal pine
#

i just hate my musket not killing bulwark in 1 shot

vestal pine
#

have fun

fleet zealot
mint brook
#

also lets not forget that the boltgun got another nerf with ranged no longer working with dash

vestal pine
vast basin
#

Every gun got that nerf though

mint brook
#

yeah but bolter needed ammo efficiency where it could get it

vast basin
#

And boltgun atleast got some extra ammo

spare dome
#

still a lame argument

vestal pine
#

i hope zealot soon gets a antiarmor ranged more than two

spare dome
#

removing foft ranged rending just normalizes outputs

vestal pine
#

i think boltgun is better now with extra ammo

mint brook
vestal pine
#

you can still kill like 3 crushers with 1 mag

spare dome
#

and that extra ammo does go a long way

#

literally the last patch

vestal pine
#

you sleep under a rock

mint brook
vast basin
#

The most recent patch brought it's reserve ammo up by 20

#

I think

vestal pine
#

boltgun feels spiffy now on vet

#

it feels like its former self on zealot

#

vut hey what you gonna do

#

run agrapina eevolver(i am)

#

still hoping for thay

mint brook
#

yup 20 bullets

vestal pine
#

still hoping for that melta

#

zealot feels like it needs more armor dispatch tools for ranged

mint brook
#

didnt catch that buff cause i jsut wrote boltgun compeltely off

#

20 bullets aint a ton but it could be enough

fleet zealot
vestal pine
#

peak what

#

jesus

fleet zealot
#

yes

#

pinning blessing used to give 100% damage

vestal pine
#

i heard about it

vast basin
#

What was it after pinning nerf but still with fotf rending?

vestal pine
#

still dunno why they ruined autopistol

spare dome
#

6

vast basin
#

Like, 6?

#

Ah

mint brook
#

still feels odd to me tho, boltgun iand chain swords are basically the trademark 40k weapons, feels like it could still use some buffs somewhere

slow stag
#

What's the build for knife zealot knife loner piety ?

spare dome
#

Well, 7 really if you got lucky and there's fodder near the crushers for pinning

vestal pine
#

they both are in competitve space

#

not the best at anything but good generalists
well bolter is more off from a generalist

vast basin
fleet zealot
vast basin
#

I am of the opinion that the boltgun should always be "meta" in a 40k game

#

Is this a hot take?

vestal pine
#

so how does other games adapt boltgun anyway

spare dome
#

what the hell is 40k

vestal pine
#

isnt it like in space marine its essentially a smg/assault rifle

#

or something

#

i still want that votann bolt shotgun though

#

also heard about operatives talking about xenos weapons again, something

#

hrud fussil rifle

#

idk what that is

misty nova
fleet zealot
#

knife of all weapons doesn't need twbs but you want the good balance

misty nova
#

Twbs gameplay

dark zealot
#

i finally got one of those rare drops

oak delta
#

Swift Certainty is also hype. Sprint speed increased by 10% and sprinting counts as dodging. So you can heavy attack sprint away from gunners

radiant nacelle
#

Only if you're perpendicular to gunner fire

misty nova
#

He's going Piety so Swift might be a little taxing

radiant nacelle
#

If you're running directly away from or towards it doesn't count as dodging

#

Go play the meat grinder tutorial again

misty nova
#

Specially if you're also going twbs, unless he starts right side then pick Duelist and end at piety

radiant nacelle
#

@misty nova

# vestal pine hrud fussil rifle

Fusils remain one of the few scant artifacts of the Hrud that occasionally come up for sale in the Imperium and were also in high demand. Those weapons that find themselves on the black market are modified to accept Imperial plasma cells though if the mechanism itself is badly damaged then it cannot be repaired by human hands.

#

ah

#

melta-plasma

#

aint that something

misty nova
radiant nacelle
#

A very easily misunderstood mechanic that is mostly useless I. Most practice

fleet zealot
#

as long as you are at an angle from gunfire while having stamina and sprinting, you will avoid ranged fire, swift certainity just makes it so it continues after you hit 0 stam

radiant nacelle
misty nova
oak delta
fleet zealot
#

yes tbh

#

in auric, knife is already one of the fastest weapons and most of the times enemies will be coming to you

vestal pine
#

tbh

fleet zealot
#

extra ms is nice but it isn't a "Must" at least on knife imo

vestal pine
#

having more movement speed

#

is funny

#

on a knife

#

especially with mobility 80

#

dodge like you're on a icerink

radiant nacelle
#

Usually you run directly away from gunners, not on an angle. And if you do run on an angle it's easy to reach safety.

This means swift certainty ultimately does little to nothing for sprint dodging gunfire.

oak delta
#

Faster movement = quicker specialist/disabler/ranged elite kills as well. You can usually remove a problem before the team has to deal with it

radiant nacelle
#

And I find I'm rarely without stamina anyway on zealot

#

So it's just for the sprint speed and that's all

fleet zealot
vestal pine
south folio
vestal pine
#

but you can spare few stamina after getting hit by a gun anyway

#

i think the benefit of that node is just the 10% speed you get

south folio
#

like, you're past the bp where you outrun every enemy and can reach trappers before they shoot

radiant nacelle
#

Yeah

vestal pine
radiant nacelle
#

The stamina thing is no existent in actual play

south folio
#

any movement speed past that is nice but not a necessity

#

and knife is pretty fast baseline

vestal pine
#

ok

#

but its funny

#

twbs stelf zealot running at mach speeds

#

and then triggering all the fucking triggers on the map and dies

#

kek

#

peak stelf

fleet zealot
oak delta
#

You know what’s funnier.

Unremitting (sprint cost reduction) + all movement speed nodes + Twbs + swift certainty.

vestal pine
#

idk how much movement speed nodes exist

oak delta
#

And shroudfield

vestal pine
#

i might run that for funsies

two on the left side iirc

longest hit&run duration?

My funny movement speed build.

#

true knife player

oak delta
#

I don't need Good Balance.

#

And I can make up lost Duelist damage with my knife blessings

slow stag
#

i was thinkin side points

vast basin
#

You don't need dance of death and unremitting imo, I would pick up duellist and until death

oak delta
#

Nah mate. Unremitting is important smilePAIN It's not going anywhere

vast basin
#

Also take second wind, it is by far the best tough talent

oak delta
#

Nah mate

vast basin
#

Unremitting is really not important but w.e you do you

oak delta
#

Unremitting makes up for no Stam curios.

vast basin
#

You don't need Stam curios in the first place

oak delta
#

Several people would debate that I'm sure

vestal pine
#

id drop the last stelf node and get duelist

oak delta
#

I dive into precarious situations so the toughness damage reduction and regen helps me.

fleet zealot
south folio
#

knife movement tech at zero stamina is only ~5% slower than with stamina

vast basin
#

Well second wind is a lot better toughness than the stealth node

fleet zealot
#

unremitting sucks xd

south folio
#

daily reminder that zealot keeps 75% of the sprint bonus at zero stamina compared to vet and psyker

south folio
#

and also knife movement tech involves a slide so you're constantly refreshing your top movement speed at zero stam anyways

vestal pine
#

hm

oak delta
vestal pine
#

didnt notice much on vet

#

i think psyker does have stupiud slow

south folio
#

hence why it's only ~5% slower

south folio
fleet zealot
#

good balance is DR

#

crit DR is only TDR

#

good balance applies to HP as well

#

yea sprint cost reduction is fukcing useless you slide to maintain speed without losing stamina

vast basin
#

Literally everyone telling this guy unremitting is bad KEKW_ogryn

south folio
#

nah operate on vibes-based movement

#

if you believe that stamina makes you that much faster, then it's true

oak delta
#

Doesn't mean they'll change mine

fleet zealot
#

yes and my opinion is that your opinion is dumb and wrong

twilit cloak
#

it's not about having more stamina to sprint. it's about having stamina to do a push attack as you slide into melee range so you don't get clobbered. at least, that's how I see it. I'd never be caught dead using unremitting lmao

south folio
#

yeah and he's already said that he's taking unremitting over stam curios so i doubt that's a relevant point here

#

i suspect that push-attacks are not in his mind

twilit cloak
#

honestly the entire cluster above Beacon of Purity feels pretty bad

oak delta
#

If I did push attacks, I'd be running three +3 Stam curios

#

I aint

twilit cloak
#

which is sad because Beacon is great to have in auric

#

I have 0 stamina on curios or talents other than random stuff I pick up, and I push attack frequently. no idea what you're talking about lmao

south folio
#

anyways, grab movementanalyzer and figure out the actual improvement of things from having stamina

fleet zealot
#

you only need like one +3

south folio
fleet zealot
#

knife PAs are the bset part of the weapon

twilit cloak
fleet zealot
#

not using them is like only using half your weapon

south folio
#

why not just slide into the engagement

#

the stamina regen timer doesn't pause during slides

twilit cloak
#

I know

#

I'm not arguing FOR having more stamina

south folio
#

it'll just be a minor ~0.2 or 0.1 second advantage

fleet zealot
#

exterminatus is playing d advocate for the person

south folio
#

yeah i know what you're saying

twilit cloak
#

I'm just saying, if I were to get sprint reduction, that's what I would be thinking of

fleet zealot
#

and not really defending ponti

south folio
#

about having nonzero stamina for push-attacks

oak delta
#

I don't need an advocate, but cheers I guess.

twilit cloak
#

... I had a question I was going to ask but got sidetracked by the argument and completely forgot what it was

south folio
#

but that is such a minor advantage to spend two points which could go into two pretty impactful nodes given that it's not a purely meme build

oak delta
#

I've pulled clutches on this build, I know it works and does the job, so I won't be changing anything about it.

#

It's a shroudfield speed meme build that gives me way more engagement options than a sweaty knife build

twilit cloak
#

sweaty knife user here. how dare you?

oak delta
#

In this christain discord? Phah

#

Look at how many people jumped on Unremitting rabidly OmegaGuardsmanHype

fleet zealot
south folio
#

yeah, cuz i happen to know how much stamina benefits knife movetech

fleet zealot
#

that doesnt' make you in any form correct

south folio
#

i don't mind meme builds but at least have the correct reason for running them

fleet zealot
#

nor does it speak for the effectiveness of the node, if anything, you'd be doing better if you stopped using it

oak delta
#

In your opinion. That's not mine however

south folio

grab movement analyzer from the modding discord and call it a day

so sad that people have to make some mild playstyle adjustments in response to the nerf

or just loot more

fleet zealot
#

fatshark needs to support my fun of only playing crit thunderhammer

#

and if they don't, they hate fun and suck at balancing

south folio
#

people should just be honest and say they don't like nerfs and not come up with overcomplicated ass reasons after the fact to justify their dislike of it

twilit cloak
#

which would you folks prefer for a Mk.3 knife, Lacerate or Flesh Tearer?

visual stream
#

both

fleet zealot
#

since i can't legally stop you

just get uncanny+flesh tearer if you want to bleed it up

Mk.3 knife has the Special punch, into an overhead light. Punch the body for stagger/stun & Bleed, then overhead light for a big weakspot hit

fleet zealot
#

but lacerate is so lmao

#

it does not compensate for the damage loss for not hitting head

oak delta
#

Skill issue if you can't hit the head

twilit cloak
#

^ this is my issue

#

I can't hit the head 100% of the time

ember yew
fleet zealot
#

i hit the head every time

#

just go riposte precog at that point like

#

mercy is 60% weakspot, precog is 60% crit and weakspot

twilit cloak
#

counter point - I'm bad at aiming for heads when I'm up to my tits in maulers and ragers

#

but yes, precog just seems straight up better

south folio
#

so mercy killer is what you're using to make up the loss of duellist

#

out of curiosity, do you know that crit and weakspot damage stack additively on crit weakspots

#

or are you operating on vibes again here

oak delta
#

I know, this is a build tailored to my playstyle. If that's what you mean on vibes

south folio
#

i mean vibes in the sense of not having done any testing or not knowing what the numbers are

twilit cloak
#

tbh I tried replacing Lacerate with Flesh Tearer before, and it just felt worse in every way cuz it was much harder for me to maintain Scourge stacks

oak delta
#

No vibes here in that sense

#

I just vibe on how I play best and get the best done out of my gameplay

south folio
#

an impressive twisting of semantics

#

oh well

visual stream
hard nexus
ember yew
#

But Riposte making crit going 95% guarantees you a bleed on first hit so you can go on with that mercy killer bonus

fleet zealot
hard nexus
#

with knife attack speed you're gonna be critting plenty, even at 75%

twilit cloak
#

inexorable judgement just feels smoother to me

#

also, fotf?

fleet zealot
#

fury of the faithful

#

then you don't run lacerate or fleshtearer

#

you run riposte uncanny

#

Back in my day it was chastise 6849_pepeold

fleet zealot
#

cause knife is one of the few weapons that scales well off crits

hard nexus
twilit cloak
#

I'm a shroudfield enjoyer

fleet zealot
#

like running IJ is fine but piety is just smoother for knife

twilit cloak
#

I get a lot more utility out of that than fotf

#

especially on the new map where people don't know how to push batteries into the slot

south folio
#

knife has stupid crit armour damage modifiers and good crit/weakspot multis that stack well with +finesse boosts so I like piety more even if the damage + attack speed from judgement seems better out of the box

twilit cloak
#

the tougness of IJ is nice too

#

especially since they nerfed the CD reduction on crits, I can't rely on fotf for that anymore

south folio
#

second wind is enuff for me

fleet zealot
#

toughness of IJ?

#

you mean the subnode?

#

that sucks ass

#

it's just coherency regen

twilit cloak
#

? no it's not

fleet zealot
#

yes it is, everyone skips it

twilit cloak
#

it's 30% toughness when you proc with 15 stacks, which is all the time

south folio
#

since that's theoretically 30% over 6 seconds whereas second wind is 15% with an ICD of 0.5 seconds

twilit cloak
#

I run both because I'm bad and get bonked often

#

like I'm not saying piety + fotf is bad. I'm sure it's way better for damage output

south folio
#

i'm greedy for damage and i'm pretty starved for points on crit builds

twilit cloak
#

I feel ya

fleet zealot
#

and the nerf to crit cdr barely hurts knife, esp mk3

i acknoweldge that the hammer isnt the best

but its not really bad either

slow stag
#

is the mk3 > the mk6? combat knife?

vast basin
#

Different uses

#

Mk3 is more single target focus, push attack spam

spiral anvil

both also do push attack spam

i find the stab easier to aim actually

oh is the mk15 heavy evisc good as well? i heard it works well wiht a crit build might have to snag one

hard nexus

it used to work well with a crit build

spiral anvil

it was patched but i havent played it yet

vast basin
#

It's usable, a simpler version of the evis

spiral anvil
#

does it flow better now

hard nexus
#

but the nerf to the cdr made it much less effective

spare dome
#

it flows MUCH better now

hard nexus
#

flow?

#

whatd they change?

spare dome
#

less deadtime between attack chains

slow stag
#

whats perks u wnat on the knife? flak/maniac ?

south folio
#

they made the chain timings faster (e.g., heavy 2 comes out faster)

royal vortex
#

they made it piss harder

slow stag

then flesh terr/uncanny?

spare dome

there's still deadtime after the heavy attack but

hard nexus

it is much better feeling
