Seeing my cat recoil away from soda and stuff is kinda funny, after she goes out of her way so she can sniff it

Ferret ascension

fallen drum
#

is there an axe that has a faster attack string than the rashad II but is also good?

fleet zealot
placid fiber
#

^

fleet zealot
#

taxes are faster but they are def not as good

placid fiber
fallen drum
#

wow

#

rashad is considered fast huh

#

man maybe i'm in the wrong weapon class

placid fiber
#

What is your finesse?

robust iron
#

Just started playing Zealot for the first time, is the base dash ability any good?

placid fiber
#

What keystone are you using?

#

Do you have the 10% attack speed node?

fallen drum
#

blazeing piety, i have the 10% node let me cherck finesse...

placid fiber
#

Piety is not what you want to use with the rashad

obsidian prairie
placid fiber
#

You want either IJ or Marty

fallen drum
#

73% finesse

solar gorge
obsidian prairie
#

Total immunity while dashing, attack speed for guns, guaranteed crit + full armor pen for melee

placid fiber
fleet zealot
#

rashad has the finesse score but it's finesse stat isn't that exceptional, it serves to more easily enable BM and give it more attack speed

robust iron
#

Cool, I'm an ogryn main so I'm used to my dash trampling the entire legion of Sparta and I'm not quite sure how to use the zealot one

obsidian prairie
#

Oh zealot dash can’t trample stuff

#

But it is much more offensive

fleet zealot
placid fiber
fleet zealot
#

it also gives better buffs

robust iron
fallen drum
obsidian prairie
#

Send it

fallen drum
#

any tips on what I might be doing wrong?

obsidian prairie
#

And your build

placid fiber
#

I mean... It takes a few hits to kill elites, and your build highly changes how effective it is

fleet zealot
#

also, just for clarifications sake, finesse bonuses DO not contribute to attack speed, only the finesse stat does. finesse bonuses only give weakspot and crit damage

fallen drum
#

i've scrapped the build at this point, frustration mounted

fallen drum
placid fiber
#

Heavies do less to maniac, in case you don't know

fleet zealot
#

you use lights on rashad

#

besides for carapace and unyielding

obsidian prairie
#

Heavies have weird ass ADM’s

placid fiber
#

You mostly use lights yeah

fleet zealot
#

lights+ PA for stagger

placid fiber
fallen drum
#

here's the axe i have

fleet zealot
placid fiber
fleet zealot
#

due to how BM functions, perks are very important on rashad

obsidian prairie
#

Go find a new axe

placid fiber
#

Unarmored, Maniac, and Flak do much more

fleet zealot
#

since hitting one hit BPs will enable the multikills

obsidian prairie
#

Or fudge your breakpoints with martyrdom

fallen drum
#

new axe it is, gotcha

fleet zealot
#

also piety just won't help you reliably on caxe, you want martyrdom or IJ

solar gorge
#

first perks provides nothing of value and second is overkill for this axe which has super high cara dmg by default

fallen drum
#

i' loath martyrdom but IJ is a fun one i'll pick that up

fleet zealot
#

cara does give an BP iirc lambda for crushers (one less heavy) but i believe you can also get that from 10% elites

placid fiber
fallen drum
#

I find i play dumber on martyrdom and end up spending most of the mission downed lol

placid fiber
#

Personally I use 1 toughness curio and 2 wound curios on marty

fleet zealot
#

you should try breaking that habit tbh

placid fiber
#

You can play dumber, but, you still gotta be aware

fleet zealot
#

play martyrdom like you would any other build, just don't heal unless you absolutely need to

fallen drum
#

back up axe for now

obsidian prairie
#

That might be worse

#

A lot worse

placid fiber
#

Sadly I might agree with that

#

25% power multiplies with damage bonuses

fallen drum
#

lol into the trash it goes i guess

placid fiber
#

And the finesse is lower

#

Not much, but, still a little

placid fiber
# fallen drum lol into the trash it goes i guess

Headtaker/Decimator is pretty important, as well as Bromentum. Sadly the perks also matter as well, so you want at least 1 good perk and a 2nd at least okay perk(like 8% specialist or elite damage)

#

Personally if I had to take it, I wouldn't mind carapace damage either

fleet zealot
#

yea crit rashad is just

#

a meme

fallen drum
#

welp time to go to the casino then I guess

placid fiber
#

Good luck

fallen drum
#

this roll sounds more and more like the roll needed to make blaze trauma work

fleet zealot
#

0.55 - 0.85 (55%-85%) finesse mod on lights

0.88 - 1.23 (88%-123%) finesse mod on heavies

placid fiber
#

Rashad is simple to use, but, complex to roll well

fallen drum
#

lol okay so what exactly am I looking to roll on this,

#

i know head taker is one and BM is mandatory

fleet zealot
#

all 4 damage stats high

placid fiber
#

^

#

Headtaker/decimator, brutal momentum(Doesn't matter if it is only t2)

fleet zealot
#

BM mandatory, flak maniac perks, elites, carapace, etc all okay to cope with

#

BM rank doesn't matter that too

placid fiber
#

Flak I think is probably the biggest one

#

Yeah the weakspot damage is nice, but, it is still very small when comparing the ranks of BM

acoustic dune
#

as someone watch the new bruva alfabusa vid

fallen drum
#

oof

#

two highest rolls i could get have 64% pen

placid fiber
#

I mean... that's a bit oof, but, you can work with that if the perks and blessings are good

fallen drum
placid fiber
# fallen drum

@fleet zealot What do you think, is that 2nd one at least useable if the perks and blessings are good?

fleet zealot
#

idk

#

i couldn't sleep

placid fiber
#

I know you CAN use it, but, it is still sad

#

I just don't know how much you lose

#

the 50% first target one is dumpster trash

fallen drum
#

into the trash it goes...

placid fiber
#

You can probably check the 64% pen one, because if it rolls good on the blessings and perks it would be better than your other one... I think

fallen drum
#

a step up is still a step up

placid fiber
#

Yeah

fallen drum
#

lets see how mommy hadron decides to roll it

placid fiber
fallen drum
#

i got fucked hard

placid fiber
#

Can we see?

#

OH God

#

I would probably wait for a better one instead of upgrading the 60% pen one

fallen drum
#

i can replace thunderous at least, but that block efficiency hurts\

placid fiber
#

That hurts the soul

fallen drum
#

don't it?

placid fiber
#

Yeah that hurts

fallen drum
#

so, do i put it out to pasture or try to use it for a few runs?

placid fiber
#

I mean you can try.

placid fiber
fallen drum
#

how do i best use this weapon, is it just light spam eternal or does the push attack have any functionality

placid fiber
#

Push attack only damages 3 targets, iirc

#

It can be used to stagger trash, though

placid fiber
#

It's one of the easiest weapons in the game to use well

umbral kindle
#

Oh you got a purg/smite psyker? Now everything has taken a speck of damage and can't be one shot for stacks

fallen drum
#

wow that... that sucks

placid fiber
#

Oh what did you replace on the axe?

fallen drum
#

i havn't done anything with it yet

placid fiber
#

I would replace both blessings tbh, if you are going to use it

#

since headtaker will probably do more than a damage perk, due to how power works

#

Then when you get a better replacement you will probably feel the pretty big upgrade of having good perks as well as blessings

fallen drum
#

alright so both blessings then?

#

headtaker and bm

placid fiber
#

If you are going to use it

#

Yeah

fallen drum
#

i dont have much choice honestly

#

what does thunderous do

placid fiber
#

I mean sadly the rashad is really picky

fallen drum
#

its kinda bugged text wise atm

placid fiber
#

in case of fatshark text bugs

fallen drum
#

ahh thunderous is brittleness

placid fiber
#

Yeah

fallen drum
#

but i'm guessing keeping that isn't gonna help me much

placid fiber
#

I could have told you that if you asked x.x

#

Brittleness is... really mid

fallen drum
#

i did ask xD

placid fiber
#

You did?

fallen drum
#

yep

placid fiber
#

mb

fallen drum
#

look up

#

you good

placid fiber
#

I'm blind 😉

fallen drum
#

its okay so am I sometimes

#

but yeah brittleness is only good on faster hitting stuff if i remember right

#

or on rending trauma staff

placid fiber
#

It's like discount dollar store rending

fallen drum
#

welp goodbye to thunderous then

placid fiber
#

Well I know the headtaker would be benefitting from all 30% bonus melee damage a IJ build can have(without IJ stacks)

fallen drum
#

whats the major take away of headtaker vs decapitator?

placid fiber
#

since there's 2 5% nodes and then 20% from sustained assault

fleet zealot
#

decap has the highest potential but the worst sustain

placid fiber
fleet zealot
#

headtaker is the most consistent option, with decimator being the middleground

#

someone did the math and decap just edges out past decimator if you are at max stacks

placid fiber
#

Interesting, sad that it is hard to maintain

fallen drum
#

head taker it is

drowsy steppe
#

did tox flamers get stealth buffed

placid fiber
#

What do you mean?

#

I mean you don't want to stand in the fire x.x

placid fiber
#

it's so comfy having 172 toughness on a marty build

fallen drum
#

test run time

placid fiber
#

good luck!

#

o7

fleet zealot
obsidian prairie
#

Wait you can’t even hit max blaze away on GG

zinc talon
#

sure you can

obsidian prairie
#

It sounds really bad for that weapon

zinc talon
#

blaze away will start stacking with melee attacks as well as ranged attacks

#

and you don't even have to connect with anything, it'll stack swinging into the air

obsidian prairie
#

Oh right spaghetti code

zinc talon
#

suddenly you're hitting for that 50% plus crunch plus heavy talents

placid fiber
obsidian prairie
#

Forgot this is a Fatshark game for a second

zinc talon
#

and the GG heavies are all but one single target

placid fiber
zinc talon
#

with all the bells and whistles going off you can just about oneshot a mutant

#

two maybe threeshot a crusher crits depending

#

it's no slouch at all

placid fiber
#

I think it was that weapons update that buffed a lot of the underperforming weapons, that messed with us on that @obsidian prairie

#

Might have been a while ago, but, it was a really weird patch compared to what we are used to

zinc talon
#

the most fun I've ever had in a mission was putting a flashlight on my grenade gauntlet instead of the falcon punch, and running a lights out with weakened bosses

#

using just the gauntlet the whole time

placid fiber
obsidian prairie
#

Mods

placid fiber
#

Ah

zinc talon
#

many things are possible through the weapons customization mod

obsidian prairie
#

I can put the laspistol sight on everything, and I do

placid fiber
#

That would be awesome in the base game

zinc talon
#

your squaddies can't see your light when it's on, it's just you

#

but you can see when you bonk, and you can see when you aim

#

if you run out of ammo, just bonk

obsidian prairie
#

Also means it doesn’t trigger daemonhosts with it

zinc talon
#

using just that on a lights out was the scariest I've ever seen darktide get

obsidian prairie
#

Because it’s client side

placid fiber
zinc talon
#

heh I've yet to ever wake up a demon with a flashlight

#

I only just found out that could happen like a week or two ago

#

zero idea, whole time

placid fiber
zinc talon
#

uh, think so

#

it just replaces the weapon's standard alternate attack with toggle light or toggle laser pointer

#

oh by the way you can get laser pointers

#

like the snipers have

placid fiber
#

Meh, cool but meh

zinc talon
#

it'll cast out like a, uh, laser

#

and illuminate the area it lands on

#

instead of a cone at your feet

obsidian prairie
#

The lasers are cool until you move or want a hip fire reticle

zinc talon
#

and also it's red light, below the wavelength your pupillary contraction kicks in

#

so flashing yourself with it in the dark won't blind you

obsidian prairie
#

They get really fucky if you sprint or slide

placid fiber
#

I was wondering about that lol

obtuse solstice
#

should I spam light on dclaw 4 or l1h2

zinc talon
#

well it's an actual ray or whatever the nerd term is for it, one end bound to wherever your crosshair viewpoint is pointing at

obsidian prairie
zinc talon
#

and bound on the other end to your weapon

#

and therefore your animations

#

so it gets fucky with animations they didn't put a whole lot of time into like crouching whlie moving sideways

#

or whatever

#

but if you stay in first person, it's bound to the actual tip of the lasre pointer component so it'll stay on target well enough unless you're moving your gun around and looking at something super close to you, like melee range

#

and I think your squaddies can see those

obsidian prairie
#

Or you start sprinting

#

Or slide

#

Or reload

zinc talon
#

now imagine an ogryn with one on the tip of their six foot long stubber

#

in third person

#

moving sideways, first person animation doin just fine cuz it's the gun in your hands

#

third person, actual animation is moving with your gun raised way up high like you're skedaddlin with it

#

across center screen lol

obsidian prairie
#

The first person laser gets really disjointed a lot of the time

zinc talon
#

heh well I mean, it was never intended for us to use

#

but it's a weapon component like any other so the data mining comes back with it, and surprisngly it's working well enough for our use while designed for a fuckin hideyhole long distance elite

#

kinda lowkey impressive happy accident to me

#

now give me the Concrete Clobber the crushers have

fallen drum
#

Okay so, that shitty rashad axe put in some heavy lifting that game

#

i must have just barely met the 1-2 hit breakpoints because shit died so fast

@hushed knoll have you gone to the library recently?

#

If a simple note is enough to drive him nuts

silver void
#

IS rashad or achlys better ?

polar nexus
#

Drunk on champagne!

placid fiber
north sedge
#

achlys is the worst of the axes

silver void
#

But less attack speed no ?

#

Cuz i got this

placid fiber
#

All you need to do is switch thunderous to decimator or headtaker and it's almost perfect

solar gorge
#

be wary achlys's moveset is clunky af

#

probably one of the least intuitive in game

placid fiber
#

but that's the achlys

#

Which has a very poor moveset

silver void
#

I played it got 740k damage duo maelstrom so yeah idk

solid kelp
#

Achlys is maybe the worst combat axe, but it's still a combat axe and very workable

silver void
#

Okay i'll try get a good axe then

#

What's the best ?

placid fiber
#

Rashad

solid kelp
#

Lots of people swear on the Rashad

tight fog
#

rashad or antax

silver void
#

I've been playing martyrdom with it and piety too ( dont like momentum)

tight fog
#

acylys doesnt cleave through stuff its very lame

placid fiber
solar gorge
#

Rashad is the best Caxe period

solid kelp
#

Rashad and Antax both have somewhat diagonal lights which synergizes very well with brutal momentum for horde clear

tight fog
#

antax is still amazing

silver void
solar gorge
#

it's not bad but it's not the Rashad

tight fog
#

it's still an incredible weapon lol

solid kelp
#

Antax is technically better at horde clear due to its cleave targets stat, but not by much if you have brutal momentum

placid fiber
#

I mean the Antax gets 50% finesse so for a lower level character you will probably have more luck with it

solar gorge
#

yeah but he's asking which one's the best

#

and that's the Rashad

tight fog
#

yeah but ppl act as though the antax isnt worth using, which isnt true at all

placid fiber
#

the Rashad gets 50% cleave targets

silver void
#

I've got a 377 rashad MK2

placid fiber
#

I mean what is the stat distribution?

tight fog
#

if you can get headtaker and brutal momentum on the blessings then it'll be good

#

unless the perks are really dumptstered

placid fiber
#

It just sucks

placid fiber
solid kelp
#

Also, note that "worst" isn't the same as "bad". If you can make the Achlys work then the Achlys works for you.

#

But it's always worth checking the other marks in case they work better for you

#

which they probably will, in this case

placid fiber
#

I still find it weird that stats that aren't shown on a weapon, but, are on other weapons of that type are still on the 1st weapon, but, at 50%...

silver void
#

80% damage 80% finesse 80% pénétration 77% first target 60% monility

#

Mobility

solid kelp
#

That's close to optimal, I'd say

placid fiber
#

Almost perfect for the stats

solid kelp
#

I wish I had that axe

placid fiber
#

But the blessings and perks will be what determines just how good it can be

silver void
#

Let hadron bless it

solid kelp
#

Locks are going away next month anyway, so no harm done if it gets bad perks/blessings really

placid fiber
#

^

#

Plus it's still workable even with just bromentum and headtaker in the mean time

#

So it's not like you can't use it until then

fallen drum
#

whats needed to make the flamethrower good? perks, blessings and stats?

placid fiber
#

the one that does burning you want at, iirc, 76%+ and cloud radius you want at 80%

#

those are the 2 most important stats, followed by ammo

fallen drum
#

gotcha

#

btw, in case you missed it, that axe fucks

#

even being as bad a roll as it was

placid fiber
#

Nice

fallen drum
#

i got a newer one that i'll hold onto for the itemization update

placid fiber
placid fiber
# fallen drum

despite having 1 less dodge that might be better than the one you had before

fallen drum
#

it is

#

time to roll me a flamer

placid fiber
#

One of my better axes has unarmored on it as well

solid kelp
#

I forgot, but does Righteous Fury just grant crit chance overall? That might fuck well with the Flamer, since crits add more burn stacks (I think, they do for the psyker soulblaze staff at least)

visual stream
#

I'm going to a tattoo consultation today pepeyay

solid kelp
#

oh yeah, I think I mean that

placid fiber
#

It is crit chance, and not melee or ranged specific

fallen drum
#

What blessings do i want for flamer?

brazen umbra
#

is there a mod to trigger stacks of skills/blessings in the psykhanium?

placid fiber
#

Then I think either quick flame or inspiring barrage

solid kelp
#

Yeah blazing piety, zealot's my least played class so far so I don't have all the talents in my head yet

placid fiber
#

It's okay, I figured it out lol

solid kelp
#

But that keystone's probably the most impactful option for a flamer build

placid fiber
#

Eh

solid kelp
#

Out of the other two ones, I guess

placid fiber
#

I am not sure which one does the most on the flamer, actually

solid kelp
#

Martyrdom is just melee damage

placid fiber
#

IJ is melee and ranged attack speed and damage

brazen umbra
#

attack speed, toughness dr

placid fiber
solid kelp
#

Momentum would add extra damage I think, but flamer's damage is rather low so it wouldn't do that much

#

Maybe it'd affect the burn stack damage? Not sure

placid fiber
#

Yeah I wasn't sure on the keystones for flamer

#

I know melee weapons, and keystones for the most part...

#

Just not ranged, tbh

solid kelp
#

Some talents that give damage bonuses affect DOT damage, some don't and it's unclear which do from what I know

#

But stacking more burn stacks is probably better than trying to increase burn stack damage

placid fiber
#

@gritty flume Doesn't the 25% damage to nearby enemies affect burn damage?

frosty herald
placid fiber
#

or am I mistaken? >.<'

solid kelp
#

We Have a Game

#

👏

placid fiber
#

Kinda nice since the flamer is a fairly close ranged weapon(not counting cloud radius effects)

solid kelp
#

I guess the +damage to Unyielding and Infested would also increase burn DOT damage

placid fiber
#

Yeah, that's a great talent

solid kelp
#

Sainted Gunslinger would also be nice for the reload speed (and you're a zealot, so don't expect to be a dedicated flamer regardless of your build)

placid fiber
#

didn't they nerf the distance for the full bonus down to 7m, recently?

solid kelp
#

I think they did, then later increased it to 12 yeah

placid fiber
#

Oh lol

#

I didn't see that one

solid kelp
#

It runs on Close Range, which is now defined as 12.5

pliant palm
#

this any good?

solid kelp
#

Stats are good, perks and blessings are eh

placid fiber
hushed agate
placid fiber
#

You can buy it for the itemization update tho

hushed agate
#

Wait actually never mind

solid kelp
#

Chainaxes can be real cumbersome to use, that mark will have you doing lots of heavy attacks

hushed agate
#

That pen is bad

placid fiber
#

Oh didn't see that

#

I read mobility as Pen, for some reason, lol

solid kelp
#

Light attacks on the mk IV do deal more damage than what is listed, since they also have a shredder bonus applied. They also stick on normal enemies

pliant palm
#

oh its a heavy attack one? oof

placid fiber
#

Yeah, that uses slaughterer and headtaker

patent patrol
#

Ngl I can't WAIT for the new mastery system to come out. I'm immediately buffing up that First Target if I can lol.

#

this was my first ever almost perfect melee weapon

#

so

patent patrol
placid fiber
#

they are removing all the locks, iirc

solid kelp
#

Unfortunately, the light attacks on the mk IV chainaxe do not activate blessings that trigger on weapon special attacks. I kinda wish FS would just experiment and see what happens if it did

patent patrol
placid fiber
#

Oof

solid kelp
#

Bleed stacks ahoy

patent patrol
#

I'm waiting for it to come in the shop.

placid fiber
#

Just do what I did, and get 3 level 30 zealots >_>'

patent patrol
# placid fiber Oof

On the bright side, while thrust 4 makes a difference, thrust 3 is fine as-is

#

and with the new system I could probably get it quick.

patent patrol
#

tho ngl idk how I feel about slaughterer.

#

It gives a better damage boost but headtaker's so much more reliable

placid fiber
#

iirc slaughterer is better on the ironhelm

patent patrol
placid fiber
#

headtaker is way more consistent

pliant palm
#

also i assume this is good with the blessings right?

patent patrol
#

I wouldn't know fully but I know that one needs savage sweep

placid fiber
patent patrol
placid fiber
#

I can't remember for the mk2

patent patrol

alright, then we just have differing empirical evidence. makes sense since "empirical" is almost synonymous with "random". just yesterday i had to resurrect a psyker FIVE times in the same spot, and that´s just a snapshot of the game lmao

The only thing making psyker harder than others is the lower base toughness pool imo, which is offset with a crazy good stam regen

At level 30? Easy

Psyker is a glass cannon that relies a lot on active defenses (dodging, blocking, pushing, good positioning) to keep itself alive, that alone does filter out a fair few players. And it's got the potential to blow itself up through its own gameplay which none of the other classes bar plasma gun vets have.

# placid fiber not bad

luckily the low reload speed really doesn't matter cause of double barrel so it's basically close to perfect. All it'd need really is higher damage I think.

I have heard that psykers might get a talent that makes peril explosions not outright down you, might open up some interesting builds. And another one that decreases peril generation BUT also decreases toughness in some way.

# buoyant pewter Getting them to add unique weapons to Ogryn is hard enough lmao, I can’t imagine...

Well, there's naturally a higher development cost for ogryn weapons since they usually require a unique animation set, I'd imagine it took some time for them to add 2-handed weapons to ogryn specifically because they also had to add a full thirdperson 2-hand weapon animation set to the game. If they wanted to add a 2-handed sword to veteran they can reuse a chunk of the thirdperson animations they made for the zealot's eviscerator, for instance.

#

But since we have ogryn two-handers now, any future ogryn two-handed weapons would probably be quicker to implement, so long as the same animations would work.

#

Also GW's selectivity with lore

placid fiber
#

Gotta love fatshark coding, am I rite?

solid kelp
#

Ogryns not having a ton of varied representations in the lore is both a boon and a bane, since on one hand it means FS are in a spot where they HAVE to give GW new ideas on ogryn weaponry, forcing GW to consider whether or not it'd work. On the other hand, it does increase development time a little bit since GW has to make its own judgements before saying "yeah you can go ahead with that."

You all think this is better than my old one? Less mobility for like 3% higher range. I'm gonna see what the final blessing is of course. If it's not what I want I might earn deathspitter 3 just to upgrade my old one but stat wise do you all think it's better?

#

I mean Mobility is a dump stat but idk

placid fiber
#

Eh, good question... it does have slightly better range...

#

it also lets you pick another perk besides flak

#

I'd say go for it, but, keep the other one

patent patrol
placid fiber

Yeah

patent patrol

cause then I can put flak to 25%

#

I just have to hope for double barrel.

placid fiber

🙏

patent patrol

Well tbf it'll still be close to perfect even with 20% flak but

#

I want that 5% man

I feel that

I mean even if you got gimped out of the stat, you can fix that in the itemization update

patent patrol

please game give me both barrels. PLEASE!

if I don't I will be very upset lmao

i would say get a hammer

and thunder someone

I mean that works too

opaque island

im pretty sure its based on the damage of the swing and not the health of the enemy too

grizzled aspen

It is based on the damage dealt while until death is active, yes.

So a thunder hammer could pull it off.

Easier to just blender a poxwalker horde, though.

if you see weapons have strikedown in their combo routes

they might have shortcuts into them

Push into heavy isn't exactly useful on the Rashad, and idk if it is useful on the heavy sword mk 6 either lol

i.e Ironhelm -> push -> H3 , mk2 -> push -> H2
