ADS lets you fire faster ironically enough

to pull out and smite heretics with

frozen kernel
#

So aiming and just going BLAMBLAMBLAMBLAM at a boss feels good when that bleed damage kicks in

austere urchin
#

not gonna lie, the sound is so satisfying

#

someone did they're job right

frozen kernel
#

Honestly my bistol has prolly saved the most teammates in case of accidental daemonhost

#

I was trying out the boltgun in the psyk and it's great, but it's almost too great

#

I remember back when a decent boltgun would take out a charger in like 7 shots and it was something to be proud of

frozen kernel
#

My midling boltgun just 4 taps them

#

2 hipfire bursts of 2

austere urchin
#

alright, so just to set the record straight

#

bolter is boltgun and Bistol is Bolt pistol right?

frozen kernel
#

Ye

austere urchin
#

great

#

I know hoe to read

#

how top

to

#

FFS

#

Chatrooms don't protect you from typos

frozen kernel
#

Boltgun kind of does everything you need it to very well, the only downside is the draw/reload speed

austere urchin
#

yeah it is slow

frozen kernel
#

Which as far as 40k games go, that's pretty fuckin great

austere urchin
#

probably gonna try it more on

#

Vet

#

Not to pull a 180

frozen kernel
#

Vet helps offset a lot of those downsides

austere urchin
#

but have you guys tried Rogue Trader?

frozen kernel
#

At that point I'd prolly try the plasmagun but people say that's kind of in the same spot

frozen kernel
#

It's a tough one to balance, not helped in any part by the fact that 40k scaling is a mess

#

You want the weapon to feel powerful because it is, genuinely, a powerful weapon

#

But in any game you also need to contend with game balance, so it can't just be the game's BFG

austere urchin
#

NGL, it makes the ubernerd in me wonder at the 40k Rogue trader TTRPG a bit

#

I do like a CRPG

frozen kernel
#

?

#

Friend of mine was saying Rogue Trader was really really good, it's just long

#

Which is kinda normal for CRPG's

austere urchin
#

I mean, the other Owlcat games were a bit of a slog thanks to Pathfinder 1e

#

But apparently this would be better

frozen kernel
#

Ive still gotta get around to a lot of games before I pick anything else up

#

I'd recently finally installed Disco Elysium and played a couple hours of that

#

Think I got it through Humble Bundle and it's just been sitting in my library for months/years

austere urchin
#

I do need to get through Diosco Elysium

frozen kernel
#

I missed out in DE but after being pushed a lot of content by my algorithm, I decided to give it a try

austere urchin
#

It's a great game, but it is rather heavy

austere urchin
#

ture

frozen kernel
#

People said it was a phenomenal experience, and a lot of people came away from it learning stuff about themselves

austere urchin
#

true

#

or w/e

frozen kernel
#

Yeah my first experience wasn't killing myself getting the necktie

twin wagon
#

cry of laughter sometimes

frozen kernel
#

My first experience was trying to play it like a normal human being, trying to just "go with the flow"

austere urchin
#

cry of it being too real sometimes

frozen kernel
#

Until the game gave me the option to punch a child

#

I tried to punch said child, missed, had a heart attack, and died

austere urchin
#

Cuno is a cunt

twin wagon
#

Cuno deserved it

frozen kernel
#

Game does not autosave, so I lost all my progress

frozen kernel
#

Took that as a sign to embrace insanity

twin wagon
#

Volition on top

austere urchin
#

Great fucking game

frozen kernel
#

First thing I did in Life 2 was poorly proposition a woman for sex, bang on her door while yanking on the handle and crying "WHY DID YOU DO THIS TO MEEEEEE" before making my way downstairs to steal drugs from an unconscious bum before meeting with my detective partner

#

It was only then that the tie came to life and said "Woah there buckaroo, we aint paying no fines. GET THE HELL OUTTA THERE"

#

I was hooked

#

Have proceeded to get kicked in the nuts by life, gently kissed on the cheek, and not played the game since Oct 8

austere urchin
#

I mean. it truly is a masterpiece of game design

#

litreally awe inspring

frozen kernel
#

I respect that some people have looked at the game and gone "There are moments where Harry can be an absolute piece of shit human being, and sometimes you need to see that in front of you to realize you've been doing the same thing"

#

That's what makes me really want to get into the meat and potatoes of it, just morbid curiosity

austere urchin
#

true

#

it can be areflective kind of game

#

wich is rare, and doesn't happen

frozen kernel
#

Cant wait to get to the midgame and during a random conversation just be like

#

"THAT MAN GOT FEMININE ASS HIPS"

austere urchin
#

that's the whp;e gam buddy

#

I will say there's one thing I was spoiled on, and it's probably the wildest spoiler to have been the only thing to know

#

Im gonna spoilertext it for any backlog readers

austere urchin
frozen kernel
#

It's the part when ||you fuck up an Authority check and call Kim a "yellow monkey fucker"||

austere urchin
#

Not the best boy alive?!

frozen kernel
#

Because once the dust settles and you go out to deal with the consequences of doing something so shitty

#

He gives you one hell of a talk

#

And that talk hit as someone who's been in Kim's position

austere urchin
#

As he should

#

It's insane the depts of psychology these devs have swept troguh

#

trough

#

torughghgh

#

I hate english

frozen kernel
#

The only thing that shakes me is that there is no universe where I could or would say something like that, so I'm afraid of messing up a skill check and saying something so unbelievably offensive and having no way to ever take that back

#

On the one hand it's realistic, you can never take some things back

#

On the other...jesus christ Harry

austere urchin
#

Harry is a handfull

#

or like 20 armsfull really

#

but yes

frozen kernel
#

I mentioned earlier that my heart crutch holds me back in games because I wanna protect the liluns

austere urchin
#

cute

frozen kernel
#

Missing a dice roll and telling the liluns they deserve to die? Yeah that would sting

austere urchin
#

but # relatable

frozen kernel
#

But savescumming would kind of ruin the experience

austere urchin
#

you gotta roll with it

frozen kernel
#

I wouldn't have had that awesome/insane start to my second playthrough if I didn't embrace fucking up skill checks in DE

austere urchin
#

it's such a wild ride

frozen kernel
#

It is

austere urchin
#

It truly is inspiring in terms of Game Development, it is unique in it's genre

#

No game comes close

frozen kernel
#

I guess the studio broke up?

austere urchin
#

they did sadlyt

#

sadly

frozen kernel
#

I was reading an article about how the team was kinda fractured these days

austere urchin
#

The director was quite the character, apparently

frozen kernel
#

I do like that how whenever a sequel is mentioned, pretty much everyone involved just goes "Nah"

austere urchin
#

but he was a genius, case in point

frozen kernel
#

I'll never decide on which side to sit on when it comes to "separating art from artist"

#

Too much of a case-by-case basis

#

Some people you can look past the insanity, others just sully their good work by being awful people

austere urchin
#

It's a hard line to thread

#

the distinction is thin

#

and yet important

#

MJ, may or may not have gotten beaten up as a kid (awful), may or may not have abused (awful)

#

yet he is an icon of music

#

what to make of that

#

the art that has come out has to be distinct of that artist. IMO

#

but it's hard

frozen kernel
#

He grew up a child star in the 50's/60's, he was most certainly beaten by his father

austere urchin
#

oh that's a given

#

I was being... let's call it generous

#

but that music

#

undeniable

frozen kernel
#

I don't have a problem listening to MJ since he's more of a victim. I mean like, enjoying something like Hacksaw Ridge even though Mel Gibson directed it after going on his cocaine-fueled racist rant

austere urchin
#

undenyable? surely not...

frozen kernel
#

Listening to Drake's music after...everything? I wasn't a fan of it back then, I don't think I'm missing much now

austere urchin
#

what happened to Drake

#

?

#

celebrity gossip, not my forte

frozen kernel
#

But some people might be like "Hitler painted really nice landscapes before the insanity and genocide" and that's also...technically a valid statement

austere urchin
#

true

#

those castles, my word

elfin hazel
#

Hello everyone, does it has been announced that like the duellist sword, other weapons will be added to the 3 humans classes and not exclusive to one ? Like the power sword

austere urchin
#

but yes, artists are hard to seperate

frozen kernel

also, taking up room in zealot chat lol

frozen kernel
#

Classic fame. Be granted wealth, power, and no stress for the rest of your life. Throw it away doing something stupid

#

This is why dying in service of the God Emperor is the ultimate sacrifice

#

You'll be martyred!

austere urchin
#

yeah, I guess it can warp your perception of reality

elfin hazel
frozen kernel
#

Well, if your deeds are significant enough at least

austere urchin
austere urchin
elfin hazel
#

Okay thanks for your reply

austere urchin
#

I am unaware if there has been any news on that front

frozen kernel
#

Given how ludicrously strong DS has been shown to be on the more melee-oriented classes when it was previously the one defining weapon of psyker, I dont think they'll be giving zealot the powersword anytime soon

austere urchin
#

wich is probably good

frozen kernel
#

Not like we need it, but it would still be a net loss for veterans since they'd lose a unique class weapon

austere urchin
#

wich seems weird, how do you write woch?

#

wich

#

goddamn

frozen kernel

Which for "Which one of these would you like to use?"
Witch for "Burn the witch"

You ever watch Jojo in English, Okri?

it'll leave you feeling magical

nope, always subs

austere urchin
#

It was such a clash encountering stands for the first time

frozen kernel
#

Friend of mine usually watches anime in the background while he's doing code monkey stuffs, so he has to listen to dubs

austere urchin

I needed a period to adjust

frozen kernel

He started watching Jojo and oh my god

It's hysterical in english

zinc talon

Wow that third person view is so weird haha is it more efficient than first pov ?

austere urchin

my reaction to that information

austere urchin
frosty herald
#

Or mgs5

elfin hazel
#

It doesnt feel that weird in sm2

#

And i donno if it fit but i get that some people prefer playing this way

frosty herald
#

Third person is alot better since your looking up at the battlefield and you have more sight on whats happening behind you

zinc talon
austere urchin
zinc talon
elfin hazel
zinc talon
#

it's like having actual peripheral vision

#

you have to relearn your swing arcs because not all the third person animations are identical to what you've memorized in first person

#

and your targeting reticle is its own demon

#

but it makes darktide a brand new game

dark spire
zinc talon
#

similar to helldivers 2 and space marine 2, sure, but none of the combat intensity is lost

zinc talon
#

I swap between first and third depending on how foggy or dark it is

#

you can set a camera offset above and to either side of you for whatever's most comfortable for your display size

#

mine prolly looks weird cuz I have an ultraultrawide

stone fern
zinc talon
zinc talon
#

like one of those anime showdowns where neither character moves but one clacks his katana back into the sheath and the other splits in half

stone fern
#

personally i spam push until if feel safe enough to hit it

I get greedy

#

cuz I gaslight myself into thinking I have their pounce timing down in the air

rare geyser
zinc talon
#

^top 5 darktide high

elfin hazel
#

I will stick to first pov though

#

But thanks I didnt know it was possible

zinc talon
frozen kernel
#

Efficient? Definitely not. But more fun hell yeah

zinc talon
#

the aesthetics are fantastic

frozen kernel
#

Similar to Chivalry/Mordhau your melee attacks are actually aimed, it's just not a box of "hurt" in front of you like in something like Team Fortress 2

zinc talon
#

oh yes

frozen kernel
#

I love looking at myself in elevators and stuff in thirdperson

#

But for playing I personally prefer first person

zinc talon
#

you'll have to relearn where your swings go relative to the offset camera and by watching your character swing

#

when you miss in third, you miss in first, it's not any different

#

but your perspective is

frozen kernel
#

Yeah, you can wind up in some situations where you miss swings that you almost assuredly hit, and vise versa

zinc talon
#

could only do a mission or two when I first got it cuz all the extra 3d math I had to parse in my brain would fuckin fry me

pine glacier
zinc talon
#

now I am cousin rockri delivery services, international

frozen kernel
#

I like the angle you fanagled on your zealot clip

frozen kernel
# zinc talon

The only thing is that the crosshair is like a thirdperson mod for Garry's Mod

#

It moves A LOT and the way I play zealot, I whip out the bistol for quick one taps over the heads of the horde

#

I'd be whiffing so many shots cri

zinc talon
#

yeah the crosshair is actually a moving 3d icon in the game world, not a flat 2d element on your hud

#

you just unironically can't tell that cuz it's dead center of your screen and there's no depth perception

frozen kernel
#

Mind taking a quick screenshot of the settings you've got for your camera?

zinc talon
#

but it actually fires out to where your shot would land, if you fired right then

#

so it can seem to wiggle around

#

I don't think I had to change anything moving to the ultrawide because darktide already had support for the display type

#

space marine did not, I was so so so terribly fat

#

that camera offset for ogryn doesn't click on at first, I just have to push 4 then click the slider and not move it and it zoom's out from okri's shoulders to his waist or so

elfin hazel
frosty herald
#

Darktide got a huge fps boost with the fullscreen patch so you might not be in that bad of a situation

zinc talon
#

one vs the other

pine glacier

#

so I guess more waist height til I click it then I get a view down to his feet

does mk9 heavy sword have worse head magnetism than mk6 or something

#

i feel like i struggle to one tap muties with it more than mk6

even at similar damage amps

yes it is

it’s just hitboxes and hitbox priority!!!!

magnetism would be the game pulling your attack towards something

stone fern
#

i hate you so much

hard nexus
#

we’re right

#

lol

placid fiber
#

hitbox priority is the game prioritizing one hitbox over another

sullen forge
#

I’ve landed 4 mutant headshots in a row with the 9

#

Instantly killing them

#

I just don’t think you know it’s strikedown pattern yet to hit heads

placid fiber
#

Might be you're aiming the mk9 like the mk6, even tho it is more vertical on the heavy 1

I suppose I could do a consignment for a free win

placid fiber

Do I need to fucking get on to show you how to aim the mk9? lol

stone fern

its too risky bro!!! 1 door functions correctly in the middle event

plz stay safe

I don't even use the mk9 lol

pale spindle

pale spindle

Is shred better on the other DS too?

stone fern
#

im just saying its inconsistent

placid fiber
#

Including on the 2nd hit

pale spindle
placid fiber
#

I don't use the mk9 heavy sword either

stone fern
#

now try it facing the mutie

#

you keep saying that but thats not the issue

pale spindle
stone fern

im arguing its function

pale spindle

Mutant just got nasty shoulder blades chadgryn

placid fiber
stone fern

it clearly works worse if you are facing the mutie

stone fern
pale spindle
#

OMG SILENCE THAT DOG

placid fiber
#

I'm consistently getting headshots on the mutie with the sword mark that I don't use

stone fern
#

the enemies are not moving

#

its not an issue of knowledge or skill

#

im talking about the weapon itself

placid fiber
#

You were missing against them when they weren't moving

stone fern
#

im not even moving my mouse

#

one out of every 5 attacks when they are in the spawning animation doesnt hit the head

placid fiber
#

And yes I killed the dog twice

pale spindle
#

OK can we all just admit that the mutant has jacked shoulders and move on? 😔

stone fern
#

ur gaslighting me

pale spindle

Blocking the head

placid fiber
#

With a weapon I DON'T USE

stone fern

the issue is with the weapon idc

#

im not even moving my mouse from the same spot

placid fiber
stone fern

🙄

placid fiber
#

I showed you how to hit the mutie's head if you don't use that information, it's your fault

stone fern
#

why dont i have the same issue with mk6 then?

placid fiber
#

and yeah I missed the head a few times on a weapon I don't use

stone fern
#

man

#

i am not arguing about your skill or mine

#

i am saying hitting mutie heads is harder on mk9 than mk6

placid fiber
#

Experience goes a long way

stone fern
#

im gonna add pineapple to all the frozen pizzas in your entire city

placid fiber
#

I couldn't care less lol

stone fern
#

fuck

light badge
#

I enjoy that this conversation is about hitting idle mutants, which you're rarely if ever doing

#

It's easier to hit their heads mid-charge, and if they're idle after a charge they probably have little health to go through

sullen forge
#

I land them mid charge but they’re easy to land when they stand still for a moment

placid fiber
#

Not to mention I'm not even in the mood for darktide lol

sullen forge
#

When they’re charging it’s a bit riskier

placid fiber
#

Yeah I usually go for the double tap when they're charging rather than risk getting grabbed

placid fiber
stone fern
#

dodging into the little hand also is safer

placid fiber
#

I mean dodging to the left on a mutie also gives the angle of the mk6's heavy 1 more of an opportunity to hit the mutie's head

#

I almost always seem to dodge to the right though

New to zealot (coming from psyker and vet) just asking if would zealot is still a good build. Also, any two handed chainsword advice. It's probably the most fun weapon I've used in the game so far

Mutant head hitbox isn't centered. You should be aiming more to the right

other weapons can hit it alot easier

#

shooting muties in the head is so tough

stone fern
#

BLOCKED!!!!

zealous mesa
#

I swear I've stabbed them from behind and somehow stabbed their head

light badge
#

Why would you ever shoot a mutant tho

#

As a first resort

zealous mesa
#

Because in mutie rush modifier I can one/two shot them to the head

light badge
#

Oh true

#

That modifier is ass

stone fern
#

personally i give it a ranged love tap when its far so i dont start bitching on zealot chat when i fail to one tap it

zealous mesa
#

Also it is cool when you stand your ground and it dies and flies right through you because you shot it in the face

frosty herald
#

I have a good enough cpu for wilds

#

Shaders loading is going pret fasr

zealous mesa
#

Is there something I can do with shredder autopistol to not make it tragic

frosty herald
#

With some it takes like half an hour

zealous mesa
#

Its fun to fire it at head level into hordes

#

Also it kills ragers so fast

frosty herald
#

Its objectively the worst ranged weapon in the game

zealous mesa
#

Darn

uneven galleon
#

That's the only good use for it

zealous mesa
#

it must have a high maniac modifier though

#

It kills stuff like flamers and ragers really fast

frosty herald
#

You might wanna swap shredder to bolt pistol

zealous mesa
#

I don't play zealot so much, I don't really like the bolt pistol that much

#

I like the animations and it plays well

#

I just prefer faster guns for zealot

#

Feels more proper too

frosty herald
#

Agripinaa revolver

pale spindle
zealous mesa
#

I don't bother with the flamer

#

the psyker has already killed the horde with magic flames

uneven galleon
#

Flamers are an 'oh shit' situation

#

Where there's too much of a certain thing that it's better to burn everything at hand

zealous mesa
#

I want something to bring with the thunder hammer

uneven galleon
#

Thunder hammer?

zealous mesa
#

shredder runs really fast

#

and spits bullets

#

so I bring it with the thunder hammer

uneven galleon
#

I usually go Bolt Pistol or something

#

Anything to kill specialists from afar if I don't have knives

zealous mesa
#

I used to use the heavy sword when I was levelling up zealot a long time ago but liked the devils claw more

#

I love parry

uneven galleon
#

I think it's alright

zealous mesa
#

I use it like the opposite of how I use it on veteran

#

On vet I use the mk1 with double side heavies and aim for the head

#

on zealot I use the one with all vanguard lights and spam it to build up crit and bleed

cold aspen
#

whats the dump for boltgun?

cold aspen
zealous mesa
#

Every time I see someone use a bolt gun on zealot it's to pull out and magdump a boss

opal star
#

that's pretty much the primary reason to use the boltgun on zealot
other than panic-vaporizing an incoming horde

copper hawk
#

I can now play darktide

zealous mesa
#

good luck

cold aspen
zealous mesa
#

Yeah

cold aspen
#

is collateral the dump stat?

opal star
#

it can do that too but ppl usually gun for throwing knives for that with how long the draw time is

cold aspen
#

ahh fair

#

i dont like knives

#

at all

zealous mesa
#

I like braced autoguns with hit and run

cold aspen
#

placid fiber
#

iirc collateral isn't the dump stat since it needs a higher amount to open a bulwark's shield

opal star
#

the one and only hit and run user

zealous mesa
#

When you forget to dodge and a sniper round goes straight through you but it's okay you just shot a guy point blank

placid fiber
zealous mesa
#

Hit and run works pretty well for running into a group of shooters

zealous mesa
#

and zealot has that close range boost talent

placid fiber

The main thing immo nades are good for is dropping at your feet if you're sure you can't dodge a dog, like if you're on the hounds waves missions and cornered + clutching

Hardly worth talking tho because the start of middle tree is meh

there is only 3 reasons you take it, pathing immo nades, martyrdom building for pure durability cause restoring faith can go past wound lines again, reproccing btfe, and the weird HP curio stacking zealot

other than puncture, does spearhead use surgical or another blessing?

1.2x

fleet zealot

and you can regen 20% of the 20% you gain back of course

#

but it's nowhere near double

frosty herald
#

imo its not that good of a talent

#

at most youll regen like 10 hp

placid fiber
#

imo restoring faith is more for hp meme builds

fleet zealot
#

it's niche, you have to basically build around it or have a build that wants to abuse btfe martyrdom interaction, but that will make you give up twbs
