[paper harness]

We have some gpnvgs in the office

[north sedge]

yea, or be on a lower difficulty

[wary kite]

If you play on malice or lower you get an extra wound, that's how. Other than that you are capped at 6 stacks of martyrdom for damnation

[south grove]

it's terrible so I want an analog

[sour oxide]

lol what would you need those for?

[paper harness]

Company events

[pseudo oxide]

thanks thought i was missing something that gave more wounds

[paper harness]

Hunting hogs

[sour oxide]

any openings?

[paper harness]

Totally a reasonable purchase

[south grove]

where do you work

[wary kite]

Nah you're good. 6 wounds is still plenty of martyrdom stacks. That's 48% more damage!

[sour oxide]

I mean yes.

[south grove]

is there still an opening?

I need that job

[pseudo oxide]

21% more attack speed for my thammer

Any opuioins on what the most effective chainaxe is

[paper harness]

4

[south grove]

man

[south grove]

I like 4 for generalist, but 12 can oneshot crushers

[fickle dagger]

agreed

with 4 you can light spam tho

[sour oxide]

chainaxe go grrrrrrr

[paper harness]

Bama boy

[south grove]

you need first proc headtaker/slaughterer, then rev for heavy, and then proc thrust

or you can just go chasitise the wicked

[paper harness]

The factory is so slow to respond to orders

[fleet zealot]

on damnation yes

also birthday outing over

i can now return to being a recluse

[sour oxide]

oops I mean Rocketdyne

[fleet zealot]

[paper harness]

Oh rocketdyne is great

[fleet zealot]

buffalo wild wings for lunch special and free birthday wings, then got my free krispy kreme 3pack and the lady gave me an extra 4th for free , then a free crumbl cookie. then i had dinner with my parents at the mongolain grill buffet, then we went to a mexican ice cream shop

[sour oxide]

[paper harness]

Never had a problem with their side of rtx

[copper hawk]

Srry

Ur goin on a list

[south grove]

ohhh :(

[hard nexus]

[paper harness]

I should say former

[south grove]

I think I'm on lists already

[fleet zealot]

no one want play darktide with me (i am a recluse and won't play unless i am invited and also feeling like playing darktide)

[south grove]

is it just me or server's getting wonky these last 2 days?

[fleet zealot]

[south grove]

I literally live next to US west servers but it's not like usual that I dc 3 times an hour

[fleet zealot]

yea cause agile does nothing unless you are brainlessly pre nerf force sword dodging

dodges in darktide are extremely forgiving

[pseudo oxide]

what curios perks do you want?

[fleet zealot]

you have a lot, they stay effective until like -3 on the mobile weapons, and they regen all at once

[lucid cypress]

my condolences

[obsidian prairie]

Agile would be cool if cooldown as one by one

[fleet zealot]

hp toughness, 2x gunner resist, sniper resist, stam regen

[obsidian prairie]

instead you can just push once or twice and all your dodges are back

[fleet zealot]

yea in vt2 or any other alternate universe agile would be BiS

[paper harness]

Y not

[south grove]

I can play rn

[fleet zealot]

mk4, yuo want headtaker and slaught

[south grove]

slaughterer / headtaker for mk4

[fleet zealot]

mk12 you want thrust + slaught or headtaker

[plain dragon]

Oh I see straight Strength boosts okay

[fleet zealot]

thunderous and oppurtunist are both meh on chain axe because it already has high armor damage

[south grove]

I wanna make a cawdor cosplay for my zealot

gimme a sec

[fleet zealot]

bloodletter is just, chaxe is one of the highest damage weapons in the game, no need to wait for a bleed dot

[plain dragon]

And the usual perks?

I'm using a mk4 rn

[south grove]

I went flak unyielding

might not be optimal

[fleet zealot]

depends on what you are going for, mk4 you can do flakiac, but also up to unyielding and carapace if you want to focus on bigger targets

i mean mine isn't optimal, i have cara unyielding

[south grove]

amelia is the chainaxe expert

[fleet zealot]

but i also been playing chaxe since the game came out and i remember when unarmored was a must

😢

[plain dragon]

Oo I doo like hitting the big boys

[fleet zealot]

dark days

[plain dragon]

I've run Chaxe since release too I just also was dumb and ran shit like +stam

[south grove]

I'm actually gonna freak

3rd dc in this hour

[fleet zealot]

bless your soul kindred

[plain dragon]

I'm finally moving on to actually playing the game right

[copper hawk]

Ur goin on a list too naow

[fleet zealot]

like mk12 has a BP for unarmored but i don't like recomnending it cause most people don't use it for hrodeclear

[hushed knoll]

Why are you taking notes

Every time you take notes you waste paper and the rainforest dies

[fleet zealot]

i am anti ai ferrets cause it kills the trees

[hushed knoll]

How

[sage river]

🗿

[south grove]

my NCO said I can

why are you doing this

[sage river]

FSR 3.1 and Frame Gen makes this game more than playable for me

Very happy with fartshark for this one

(For context they made it available to weaker/older cards)

Game looks twice as good at double the frame rate

or at least feels that way

[twin veldt]

Same for me

Before the patch I had like around 90 fps with huge drops and stutters that made the game so hard to play, no matter the settings. I optimised it a bit by playing around the settings a bit and disabling the portraits which greatly reduced the stuttering, but after the patch I run around 120-160 fps

Usually really smooth even with big hordes and such

Haven't tried frame gen since it turns off automatically when you move your mouse alot which is 90% of the gameplay

[copper hawk]

I cant play w/o it

Perpetually 120 frames

It's pawesome

🐾

[twin veldt]

Every time I tried frame gen on anything it didn't really feel good, since every time I turned it went back to shit fps and then back and felt really laggy from changing all the time

It's fake fps anyways, doesn't add much to the smoothness

[copper hawk]

That's peculiar

It makes the game buttery smooth for me

It feels gross playing without it

Not all frame gen might be created equal

I'm using nvidia frame gen

On a 4090 (laptop)

It's probably designed around frame gen so it works nicer

[twin veldt]

I could try it now when I actually have good frames since it's a better base I guess

[north sedge]

yea if you have a high end card frame gen can be nice

for me it was poopoo caca peepee

[copper hawk]

My ass could NOT afford an actual 4090

[sage river]

I went from stuttery 40-50 fps to hitting my refresh rate consistently

[copper hawk]

I think when Im back from this deployment im gonna finance a monster pc

[north sedge]

not that used it on purpose

[hard nexus]

[amber igloo]

Only Nvidia framegen is locked behind 40XX

[copper hawk]

To get my credit into the 720+

[hard nexus]

oh ok mr unlimited money

[sage river]

My brother in emprah Im using AMD

[copper hawk]

Nop

[hard nexus]

nvidia sucks though

[copper hawk]

Hewwo meow ;3

[hard nexus]

so it’s ok

[hard nexus]

hai

[copper hawk]

I LOVE nvidia

[amber igloo]

oh I don't know much abuot that, FSR 3.1 works like a dream with my 3060 at least

[copper hawk]

Haaaaai

HELLO

HAAAAI

[hard nexus]

hai

[north sedge]

i like their cards do not like their prices

[copper hawk]

[hard nexus]

[copper hawk]

Their prices fucking suck

It's awful

But the frame gen is so nice

[hard nexus]

i don’t trust their cards either

[copper hawk]

AMD is the way forward frankly

[hard nexus]

after the whole power connector melting

[copper hawk]

But Ive always used nvidia

Too worried to swap

Ryzen is an excellent cpu line though

[twin veldt]

I'm running AMD RX 6700XT Which is a mid range card and I'm running mix of medium/high settings with some stuff off and I'm trying to hit permanently 120 on 1440p

[north sedge]

that was a specific adapter on the 4090 that was (eventually) swapped out

[copper hawk]

I think at like

[amber igloo]

Funnily enough, only friends with Ryzen have problems with FSR 3.1 in DT

[lucid cypress]

90% of the "issues" with amd are nvidia fanboys overblowing things that havent been a problem for years

[copper hawk]

I have like max for 16:9

[twin veldt]

Fsr is goated

[north sedge]

i like amd cpu

[copper hawk]

Anywho

[twin veldt]

I run it on quality and it looks almost like native 1440

[copper hawk]

Im gonna finance a new pooter

So i can buy a brand new vroom vroom

So i can buy a houz..

Tha k u va loan..

[twin veldt]

Bro is financing a PC

[copper hawk]

I got approved for a credit line for a quite expensive o e

One*

Cuz i want to buy a new-ish car I wont need to repair for a while

Working up to get perfect credit

[twin veldt]

Idk how all this American stuff works

[copper hawk]

Dystopia

[lucid cypress]

you'd think that

but new cars need more repairs than old ones

[copper hawk]

Gonna buy a toyota

[median steeple]

no

[copper hawk]

And it'll never fall apart

[median steeple]

neber

[copper hawk]

I dont want a brand new one rlly

I mean like

4 years or 5 years old is perfect

[twin veldt]

I just got a credit card and use it normally in. Got a few small loans from time to time for like 400 bucks and paid them back fast. Never had financing for anything

[copper hawk]

My first car was a junker 2000 lincoln town car

It was actually rlly nice i miss it,,

[twin veldt]

I'd feel too bound by financing stuff like a PC

[twin veldt]

Yes

[copper hawk]

I also just want,,

A monster,, pc,,

i saw the great ape vegeta fight and it got me laughing that's some prime bullshit

[rocky nacelle]

its just like old times

[fleet zealot]

THEY REMARKED THE HELBORES?

fuckt his

[twin veldt]

Dudes, I've been running the las pistol on my zealot lately, just running and gunning, not even aiming since it's so accurate in hip fire and It's genuinely one of the best guns for zealot I'd say

I'm thinking of how to make some crazy build for it

[sage river]

go for crits

[rocky nacelle]

even if you arent going infernus dumdum you can go dumdum ghost and just hold W

[night pasture]

Id go inferno dum dum , zealot doesnt really need ghost, and the dot is kinda nice

so crit, and if u want high clutch potential add stealth ability too

[autumn void]

Fellas I think I accidentally made Doomslayer

[brisk island]

Did they remove the thing with the flamer and using Zealot F to give DOT armor piercing?

[amber igloo]

a while ago yes

[brisk island]

ah damn

[amber igloo]

its 100% rending now on first hit for melee only

guns only get the fire rate

they buffed the bolter tho, you can take out a crusher in 4 headshots

as well as introduced the bolt pistol, which is decent at taking em out

[brisk raft]

No more charging with Columnus Autogun

[fleet zealot]

yes

[opaque island]

maybe i just didnt understand it, but i tried using the bolt pistol for a commisar type build on vet and it just didnt have the punch i thought it would

[obsidian prairie]

10 seconds for funny

[copper hawk]

I use the laspistol

The heavy one

The x

yo zealots, does heavy sword have a dump stat?

[fleet zealot]

[hard nexus]

i might’ve

[hard nexus]

yeah

we did

[lunar fable]

that was my first death in like

20-30 games

[hard nexus]

deserved

[lunar fable]

[graceful leaf]

is there a preferred mk for heavy sword?

gonna hunt one as a psyker main so im startin from zero with it

[hard nexus]

all 3 are good, mk9 is unique as it has a overhead h1 and looping sideways h2 and h3, but with kind of useless lights

mk6 and 7 have good lights, with the same attacks but different locations in combo

mk7 has an uppercut into overhead heavy

while 6 has an overhead into uppercut heavy

[hard nexus]

idek how long ive gone without dying

i also tend to run shit builds

[fleet zealot]

thoughts on my meme nadebistol build

[hard nexus]

and or i suck

[lunar fable]

i was just playing more aggressively than usual

[fleet zealot]

thinking of dropping a point somehwere for pack improvements

[lunar fable]

o and i died at the end cause i kinda stopped paying attention while running to grab medicae

[hard nexus]

i always play too aggresively, which is why i take a lot of damage

[hard nexus]

wait

i remember

[fleet zealot]

i'm fucking blind

[hard nexus]

that was cica and i

[fleet zealot]

so i take more damage

[hard nexus]

we were laughing at u dying lmfao

[lunar fable]

[fleet zealot]

cica malidictum

[lunar fable]

LOOK

i was tired

i just wanted to zoom

get some money

buy a few lawbringers and sacrifice them

then sleep

[lunar fable]

was he the zealot or the vet

i remember reviving the zealot and he said

"thank u monky"

and then he made some monkey noises

[teal sapphire]

is there any way to turn off crossplay

[copper hawk]

It's one of my many manly traits

I learned it from uh

Fresh n Fit

Put all ur cute stickers on ur fav kitty pictures

[misty nova]

By uninstalling

No way of turning off afaik

[hollow lagoon]

Is bleed on knife even worth building into

[misty nova]

You could probably try using the LFGs to find players on similar devices though

[misty nova]

Lacerate? No
Flesh Tearer? Has some uses

I don't knife so I can't really tell you those uses

[rotund shoal]

lacerate does work

[teal sapphire]

damn loaded into a heresy match and had an actual vet aimbotter with some kinda damage mod

[rotund shoal]

for horde clear

[teal sapphire]

thats sad

username was Seiki

[rotund shoal]

better than flesh tearer

[obtuse jungle]

I saw bobthebiscuit in the end screen, you ran so far ahead lmao

[teal sapphire]

first time I've seen an aimbotter in a pve co op game...

[rotund shoal]

flesh tearer imo is useless cuz you could just pick up precog if you want damage

[misty nova]

I'm an avid lacerate denier
Don't try to negotiate with me

[rotund shoal]

i mean go into psykhanium and horde clear with and without lacerate

[misty nova]

[rotund shoal]

you will see a very clear difference

very

[obsidian prairie]

Counterpoint

[misty nova]

What part of not negotiable....

[obsidian prairie]

knife shouldn’t be used for horde clear

[rotund shoal]

ok so what do you do against hordes solo

only use flamer?

[copper hawk]

Knife damage dump stat

[rotund shoal]

what happens if your flamer runs out of ammo or needs a reload

[obsidian prairie]

My knife and flamer when things are especially shitty

[rotund shoal]

or you dont havae the space to use it at all

[obsidian prairie]

My flamer is an emergency tool

[rotund shoal]

.. so what do you do against hordes..

[obsidian prairie]

Knife without lacerate works well enough

[rotund shoal]

doesnt

[broken walrus]

Does

[rotund shoal]

wayyy too slow

[broken walrus]

Oh I thought we were just saying words

[opal star]

Knife horde clear is..

[obsidian prairie]

Ok but like, I don’t want to drop the damage for knives primary role to build into something it isn’t meant to do

[opal star]

Serviceable

[rotund shoal]

ok but what do you do when your team dies and you have to fight a mixed horde while gunners are pinning you

you have to use cover

[obsidian prairie]

If I wanted more consistent horde clear I could bring a double barrel

[rotund shoal]

but using cover means putting yourself into a confined space

if you cant horde clear quickly enough

[obsidian prairie]

No I don’t, second wind is fucking balanced

[rotund shoal]

you get overwhelmed

yes you do

[obtuse jungle]

lol

[rotund shoal]

second win is strong af but you cant use it against enough gunners + snipers

[broken walrus]

You keep saying "you." I think you mean "I"

[rotund shoal]

you do have to use cover when soloing

[obsidian prairie]

Luckily if I’m doing my job right I don’t have to solo

[obtuse solstice]

ok but what if john darktide joins your match and steals your knife what then

[rotund shoal]

post a solo run horde clearing with knife lol

[obsidian prairie]

Building for an edge case of my team biting it is a bad idea

[rotund shoal]

i only build for that cuz all other scenarios are easy

if your team is competent you can run flesh tearer lacerate on your knife

who gives a shit

[obsidian prairie]

I also think you cannot give an accurate assessment of what happens when I’m last up as our playstyles differ

[hard nexus]

it was a very boring match

all games today have been boring actually

just had a game with 3 psykers

boring

and low spawns too

[lunar fable]

that's why i play super aggressive now

playing safe is boring

[opal star]

there sure are a lot of worst case scenarios being thrown around here

[rotund shoal]

cuz darktide is about winning worst case scenarios

[opal star]

no darktide is about killing heretics

[rotund shoal]

sorry i mean having a high winrate in auric pubs is about winning worst case scenarios

if you mostly play with premades then sure precog is a better option

[hard nexus]

knife is plenty fine without lacerate or fleshtearer

it loses in horde clear but gains in single target

not that big of a deal

just bring an agri brauto or flamer or something

[obsidian prairie]

You forget we have the option of running a more available clear secondary like dbarrel and Agri brauto

[rotund shoal]

i do run agri brauto but there are huge upsides to your melee having good horde clear as well

in tense situations is exactly when you cant afford to reload or switch weapon

[obsidian prairie]

Yeah

[hard nexus]

correct

[obsidian prairie]

But I’m running knife

[hard nexus]

there are also upsides to having better single target

[obsidian prairie]

I don’t want a horde clear primary

[hard nexus]

today zealot chat learns about opportunity cost

[obsidian prairie]

If I did I would run some other weapon

[rotund shoal]

the only meaningful breakpoints you get from precog are maulers and crushers which are slow af

hordes follow you

[obsidian prairie]

I largely disregard breakpoints outside of like, my dumbass bistol build and thammer

[opal star]

fair

but

auric pubs

https://tenor.com/view/sad-buzz-walkin-gif-4619349587537853035

miserable mfs, all of them

[lunar fable]

earlier today i had a game with 3 vets

they ran off by themselves one by one

[placid fiber]

Since when did auric pubs become as bad as normal pubs? I used to hear that you had more competent players in aurics... :/

[rotund shoal]

player count 4x ed

cuz of patch

[placid fiber]

Like... the last 2-3 months I've heard of worse and worse auric pubs lol

[rotund shoal]

in normal "off season" of 3k player average the skill level is pretty high

[lunar fable]

Lots of returning players

[rotund shoal]

or at least you get at least one other high lvl player and with that duoing is very ok

now its pretty normal to only queue with level 100s

In fact I forgot what the left keystone does

Cause I actually do not care about it

[frozen kernel]

It’s sentry mode isn’t it?

[lunar fable]

Focus target got boring

[frozen kernel]

I had a vet player that would not leave ADS for like half the mission, dude was just scoped in primarily moving through dodges alone

[lunar fable]

I didn't like having to be pinging stuff cause I'd be the one killing the stuff I pinged anyways

[frozen kernel]

He only broke once we got cut off from the other 2 teammates on a set of stairs with fire everywhere and multiple bulwarks

I ping stuff I’m in the process of sawing in half

[lunar fable]

Damn he played like an actual bot

[frozen kernel]

God forbid something happens and I don’t finish this cut, I want homies to know there’s something scary floating around

Ping counter mod has confirmed my suspicions that there are players in auric 5’s that do not ping a single enemy

[drifting wolf]

[lunar fable]

What annoys me is when you have a middle keystone vet and he's SPAM PINGING EVERYTHING

[frozen kernel]

It has a cooldown dammit let it charge

[lunar fable]

It's like wack a mole

You gotta kill whatever he pings

Before he pings again

[hard nexus]

i had a game with someone who bound m1 to ping

worst thing ever

[frozen kernel]

Honestly it’s why I use melee spec for vet. Not only does it let me swap back and forth like I’m playing zealot, but I find I spend too many milliseconds trying to ping shit in between kills

knife

both are good

knife’s mobility gets better value from stealth though imo

I had an auric like that before

Don't remember how it went for the guy though

Oh wait

[frozen kernel]

I had to play Zeteran in a 4 zealot auric specialist extravaganza

[lunar fable]

My ogryn got them dogs out 🦶

[frozen kernel]

So I imported the guard hands back into Half Life 1

Because I hated the HEV suit hand texture

It shared all the same weapons, even worked for the HD pack so there were no problems

[rotund shoal]

wait that worked? it didnt mess with the anims?

[fleet zealot]

is this reverse weaboo?

[rotund shoal]

or did they share skeletons or what

[frozen kernel]

I’d play through the game pretending everyone just called me Freeman because of a mixup

[fleet zealot]

source is all skeletons mostly so

it should work

even goldsource or whatever hl1 ran on

[frozen kernel]

Basically, they’re both the same hand models going through the same weapon animations

[rotund shoal]

simpler times

[frozen kernel]

I just have 0 experience with texturing and modeling so it was easier to rip them from Blue Shift and just drop them into Half Life, overwrite, boom done

Same way you’d install Garrysmod.org mods, just drop the folders in the base directory

Simpler times (1)

[fleet zealot]

a lot of things in source like to have a one size fits all rigging besides like, very special shit

oh and tf2, but that was also silhouettes and class identity

[frozen kernel]

Most animations are shared by all of the humans in source, and then you have TF2 lol

TF2 some characters just look weird lowering their arms because they were never meant to

Watching Scout try to walk casually in any SFM animation lol

[rotund shoal]

ive blanked sfm anims from my mind

they were funny when i was 12

[frozen kernel]

SFM was such a cool concept

It’s hard not to laugh that porn became its most common use

[fleet zealot]

i think i'm addicted to these twin vtubers

they are very cute when they sync

[frozen kernel]

But if they’d made it less obtuse to work with I think we could’ve gotten more and better SFM content over the years

[rotund shoal]

i mean there was a LOT of content

i even did some

[opaque tangle]

[frozen kernel]

Honestly I just wish I’d gotten into it because with the way my imagination works, it would’ve been a natural progression from doing the comics

[opaque tangle]

You coulda made bank for super bowl commercials

[frozen kernel]

So even if I was only okay, in todays internet I could just be making fun animations until I got picked up

[opaque tangle]

[rotund shoal]

doing something as a passion and as a job are two very different things

especially artists cannot be picky at all about the jobs they get

[frozen kernel]

I mean shit look at how many EXTREMELY rough blender animations of Helldiver execution animations started floating around

[opaque tangle]

Artists are excessively underpaid, abused, overworked, and undervalued.

[frozen kernel]

Imagine if you’d had the sauce to make the one banger that spreads online until AH themselves retweet it?

[opaque tangle]

Very few artists get to go "big" for their talent.

[frozen kernel]

Even if they didn’t hire you, you’d have the clout of being the guy who consistently makes awesome animations

A lot of the artists who do the reload animation stuff went that path

[opaque tangle]

True. Anyone will want to work with you from name alone.

[frozen kernel]

Someone from Activision just goes, “Ay that’s pretty good” and boom, they did most of the anims for the new MW2

[opaque tangle]

Look at that fanmade Astartes business

[rotund shoal]

but that was insanely good animation work from one guy only

[opaque tangle]

Was so good the Big Cheese scooped him up

[frozen kernel]

Im pretty sure they rig everything with their fursona because it has bright yellow skin and such, which is kinda based

[rotund shoal]

it was animation studio quality made by one guy in his free time

[opaque tangle]

That's kinda funny

[frozen kernel]

Astartes getting them hired and Emp’s TTS getting canned will always burn my soul

Do I not need to change build for it?

[naive stirrup]

at that point just run a knife

I've just seen Dorn in a channel alone for like the last 3 hours, is he okay or has he gone rogue psyker?

yeah its neat for penance hunting that, wonder if rolling works for like, xmissions without shitting the bed on aurics or smth

[naive stirrup]

if you want until death for the "oh shit" button you might be able to get away with dropping invocation and punishment, taking until death/holy rev and sticking that 3rd point into enduring faith.
or if you want the backstab CDR then dont take invocation and just swap it for pius cut-throat

its a pain but shotguns make it easy

nukes bosses and elites, while still dealing with hordes on an acceptable level - Crucis is amazing

it's so easy

[naive stirrup]

why is he taking scavenger?

[dense viper]

i like it with the "bigger explo radius" helps with light horde control when needed.

[naive stirrup]

i use ironhelm for the better horde clear

[south grove]

scavenger has no interference with the penance as long as you don't draw the weapon

[naive stirrup]

i dont care about hammering bosses

[clear bobcat]

If Ironhelm had a better attack right after the special i would use it

[naive stirrup]

well to uh, do the penance you kind of have to draw the weapon

[dense viper]

@naive stirrup knife blessing. Rending or bleed?

[pure tree]

My favorite weapon on zealot is the heavy sword

[frozen kernel]

This was back when we had way less control of the builds at launch. I think there was something that either meant he had to take it or going without meant he went without other really nice things

[south grove]

you can finish the mission with full ammo as long as you empty out your first reserve into a horde, then just melee the rest of the way and refilling your ammo with scavenger

[delicate shadow]

Crusher Gang

[frozen kernel]

Was not aware of this, if it worked at the time lol

[tropic pelican]

you do what to her gang?

[naive stirrup]

depends on if you want to go the crack head route of lacerate + uncanny for the high horde clear or the slightly worse horde clear but better single target of precog + riposte

[frozen kernel]

I think he brought either the OG shotgun for the slugs or revolver

[south grove]

once you draw the weapon the ammo you replenished through survivalist will now be counted for the penance tho

[naive stirrup]

me personally i've been using lacerate + uncanny for a bit if i even use the knife

[south grove]

so what I did was I killed my weapon switch keys

[naive stirrup]

been using dclaw a bit more

[delicate shadow]

[dense viper]

yeah i pref dclaw but ill fuck with knife for a lil. havnt used it in ages.

[naive stirrup]

it's so much fucking fun and i will KEEP saying

[south grove]

there was a guy with a mk7 dclaw

I thought it was nice

might look into getting one too

[delicate shadow]

mk7 dclaw is the coolest dclaw

[naive stirrup]

if you need shroudfield knife is the better weapon for it for the stab attacks

[dense viper]

dclaw hits stack lacerate on the parry right?

[south grove]

don't think dclaw has lacerate mate

usually only run mk IV

[naive stirrup]

yeah was about to say it doesn't have lacerate

[dense viper]

pft im knifepilled rn my bad

it will stack shred though
