NG+4 is kicking my ass tho >.>
I hate your naming sometimes
At least they aren't completely nya-ified like most of his messages here
I’d prefer that…
Gross stun grenades
Aren't stun grenades and chorus kinda redundant
Anything for the penance
Even if you wanted grenades you're probably better off with immo since you can hold enemies stunned in the flames with chorus
What in the fuck
shorb...
does this look real
Point tax
Please tell me this also includes standard adm nerfs.
So that’s the buff they were talking about
I have to take stun grenades to use other chorus nodes without dropping anything relaly important
Oh Tintin is just evil.
Like duellist or sustained assault
Real enough if I'm not able to compare it to real patchnotes at the time for sure
So i have to go stuns in order to take the chorus nodes
LMAO
It isn't real, gentlemen.
Tintin literally typed it up in Google docs for misinformationmaxxing.
hey man I thought it'd be funny
But yah stuns are redundant
I don't lie I dont even remember what nodes on the left at the top of the tree are at this point lmao
No it’s real
Restundant
But i need 2 take stuns to be able to take both right side of tree
And a chorus node
Duh whole ponto..
Just go directly down the center of the tree 
Nope
You know pathing through tknives saves you two points right?
what if I made a fake reddit account and posted it
wouldn't that be funny now
Also with chorus do you really need to use until death?
Do it
Yah
Do iiit
Especially w shitter teammates
Just go "ooga booga heretic, the Emperor fucking hates you," and you won't die.
I once post the Xbox reinforcement and I get warn and mod deleted
Without twbs u can be knocked out of chorus

And randoms dont prioritize incapped teammates in pubs
So twbs can save u in a situation where u wipe cuz u get netted or dogged
Hm,,
This does get me thinking,,


No..
number go up = good, right?
Femboys don't think.
I am normally a Vet but ZEALOTS GETTING POWER SWORDS NOW.
(Sorry for all caps).
Might actually get me to be serious about playing zealot.
All they know is thirst trap, be gay, and shitpost.
Drop Veteran
In fact no
Nerf veteran
There’s only 3 classes now
Zealot Psyker and Ogryn
Exactly
Lol
Delete veteran
when do we get skitarii class
Ban him
give me skitarii class with a radium carbine and cogaxe for unique weapons
skitarii toilet
I actually had to google what a skitarii was lol
Basically... a veteran tech priest...?
Servant of tech priest
skitarii fight as a sort of pseudo hivemind under control of their techpriest masters
they can be promoted and whatnot, but during missions they are close to servitors
Admech's foot soldiers essentially
Skitarii Toilet or Grox
Typically they have cybernetics and shit
So... the step above a servitor? lol
no, skitarii are specifically warriors under techpriests and not servitors or other kind of servant
the mechanicum as a whole would be a hivemind if they could do that across planets
o_o'
each forgeworld has an internet and mechanicum hivemind
Yeah they have more agency than a servitor and I'm pretty sure they're not dead or rotting like the typical servitor
Sounds like half of twitch chat... only... twitch chat is still worse off...
they can also have the subservience programming removed and be promoted to a position of greater control and agency
but the mechanicus also does not have a universal rank structure
@frosty herald
genuinely everything was going so well
Sounds like the average barbarian... >.>
Only more tech savvy
hot take: the mechnicus is still a technobarbarian cult
Sad day
closer to an ant with a gun following the orders of its toaster queen
it does look like well go through the rooftops of carnival
regular take they get the rope last after all the aliens and heretics
Damnit I wanna see more snowy void levels
no, the psykers do
Again: You're making it sound like the intelligent version of twitch chat...
we'll need the psykers to fly around and make sure the cogboys are dead
thats after the webway
this is forged isn't it
You forgot that they also tripled the damage as well
yes it is
If you do post this you have to share if a vet detonates themselves from that first line lol
this is not real
its real
Is real
Reddit would have a field day

Story of my life...
guys guys
Put one of these above or below and it'll be even more convincing
it does have to be believable
Yeah, we need to make the carapace 200% instead of 150%
Don't forget some italics reasoning lines
people need to believe it instead of it being obvious bait
Or subsection titles rather
I mean if we post it on reddit... there's gonna be belieberz
Yeah
Just sayin
people don't read
silly
nah
just lower the multipliers a bit
people will see a 3x multiplier and think its fake
no one in general chat knows me
I'll post it there
Madam le ferret
No image perms in genchat.
Hell... that ferret should be the president...
The candidets aren't any smarter lol
Heretic
True brotha
Shrimply learn discord markdown
it's real (100%)
That's the spirit! BELIEVE!!!!
In Sir Pepperoni!
(the VI'th)
did it look convincing?
I did this in like
4-5 minutes on google docs
just kinda absentmindedly copied the thunder hammer change from UnL
did they post notes already
no
dead chat now
Just a “slight” buff LMAO
You’re going to gaslight half of Veteran chat with that
they know
I got the numbers from them
I'll wait a couple hours
have the new people look at it
YO
LMFAO
THE XBOX GENERAL CHAT ALLOWS ATTACHMENTS
Man... I know I should play some Darktide... but... there's still more blacksmith blueprints to find in rogue legacy 2...

sd
hi grandpa
This is Tintin we're talking about... of course he would...
Vet chat: "ONLY 200% unyielding??"
You're going to gaslight all of those... 1 or 2 xboxers...
BILLIONS must plasma

Just remember: Sir Pepperoni approves!
The font they use is called "Ubuntu", you can find it under "more fonts" in google docs
fixed it
I was in vet chat for... like... 45 seconds... God that was way too long x.x
I already feel dumber
Damn it tin tin, you made me spend 30 more seconds in Vet chat! @south grove

Obviously this for vet. https://youtu.be/e8paxg3MZUE?si=x24YD_U83AgDgO4k but most the time I can't decide if this tuber has good or bad takes. I don't think you need to be a meta slave to do well in auric. At the same time not all his reasoning is bad.
God it hurts being a Vet main
but that takes effort
I need to make a new account and everything
ughh
is there a karma requirement?
A what requirement
idk sometimes when I spread misinfo they don't allow me to post stuff
always said "karma too low" or smth like that
It hurts my brain being in Vet chat. x.x
bro @frosty herald have you tried SM2 astrates overhaul?
Nah
Why
ok look at his shit
bro fixed assault
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6u3gidmyxXM
Astartes Overhaul is an overhaul mod for Space Marine 2 that adds a bunch of new, lore accurate heraldry and Space Marine Chapter customization, rebalances Bolt and Plasma weapons, restores full Jump pack functionality to Assault class, and randomizes encounters heavily, which makes for some incredibly cinematic and memorable moments in Operatio...
why do random modders improve gameplay faster than devs
Tbf I do agree with the balancing philosophy that if something is absolutely necessary on a build it should either be inherent or changed
Tanner is like
70% decent takes
30% bad takes
If you’re strictly looking for solid info, then he’s wrong just enough of the time to be written off completely
But if you’re ok with him being wrong (and you can consciously disagree with him on that without falling into either extremes), then watching him is alr
i looked up the mod page
massively buffs all bolters and melee
adds new funny shit
makes the ai director even crazier
Not really, I'm meme-ing more than anything lol
As much as I hate to say it
I’d rather the game spam tides of nids at me if my gun literally turns a shit ton of them into red mist
The worst people are those that watch him and take his words as gospel truth because they just aren’t correct lol
the tannerling talking abt gunner dmg resist in veg chat earlier
I mean he's right about thrust being necessary but uh
I have a friend who keeps pushing space marine. He used to play darktide. I know they're different but imo sm2 multi-player is dog shit compared to darktide. They would need to do a lot to make me bother with it.
thats what ive been saying
during the "Bad update" they broke ai director and game was spawning 1 trillion mobs and elites and guess what
KEEP THAT, make health pools smaller, BUFF bolters and melee dmg
boom solved it for you now hire me
Subpar is certainly a word for it
i love SM2 but darktide is just better mechanically 
sm2 has different appeal tho
like entire different appeal
That and it was stupid how trash instantly ate armor
I can have hot takes from time to time but I don’t expect anyone to take my words as gospel truth even when I do know a lot about the game
like desperation
Knife loves desparation
i remember when being in fire for a millisecond would obliterate toughess
PA spam
I mean... darktide as a core concept was built around multiplayer... Was space marine 2? Because I feel like it probably wasn't
like how i disagree with maniac on a lot of melee weapons
at least u can regen armor with piss easy parries now
they just need to work on leting u push FORWARD more and backwards less, i shouldnt be dodging and parrying to avoid insta death i should be use ing them as tools comfortably
I remember when Ironhelm only cleaved three enemies at most 👴
That’s more preference than anything tbh
I remember when our talents were the same as the shitty VT2 talents
I remember when you had to light attack with the crucis for horde clear...
My “hot take” is like
Field improv is good but usually not worth
chat should i stay up all night for stalker or sleep and play it in the morning
SM2 is very much built around co op
even campaign is 10x worse solo
the difference is darktide is the product of a studio that's been perfecting their formula for 15 years? and SM2 is a throwback to x360 unga bunga shooters so its inherently less complex
Ah
but thats still an instance where your word could be taken as gospel, when it isnt and depends on the person
Tanner seems a ok sounding board i guess and is probably a better source of info than 90% of YouTube content on darktide. I guess they're a good source for vapid takes on how to a super sweat.
The veteran main experience
Man yt is shit for darktide.
If you strictly want concrete info, youtube is not the place to be
Tanner sucks weewee
Go ogryn chat
me every time iv tried to get para to play vet
Kuli has a bunch of great detailed guides
Ogryn has cooler area room
I think my guide is fairly objective for the most part
Typo fixed
I mean... my last major solo clutch was in an auric maelstrom as my oggy... <.<
I still remember the adrenaline...
On what difficulty
I mostly just answer veteran-related questions tbh I’m not authoritative in any way for zealot
I've yet to find a better source than this discord.
5, pox gas specialist waves, mutie waves, hunting grounds
Kuli’s steam guides, trust
Wow
Also I’m migrating my guide to steam (work in progress)
I just hit my head against the wall until I figure it out
And I was in a server with 150-200 ping
Unfortunate
Yam dragged me and argus into it lol
This is far. I just feel like sm2 in general dropped a pretty massive ball on its coop mp.

I played my fucking heart out... I took 2.2k damage and only downed one time, which was during the assassination boss fight x.x
God that is hard on me, though x.x
tanner is probably a dumbass to people who know the game inside out but out of all the people i watched he is one of the few who SHOWS THINGS step by step in training area so at least i can see wtf he's talking about
also him being calmer in recent videos makes him mroe watchable
his vids on space marine are unwatachable
I need to get mod that just let's me test everything myself again n the psycharium.
I played on tox gas environment and i down twice as psyker and path.exe see me as a bad player. 😔
I mean with pox gas psykers are basically tissue paper and I think yam was one of the psykers lol
Who wants to take bets, that power swords will still be slower time to kill than duelling sword if they don't release a balance patch. 
U then played a regular smelter complex and died twice
From poxwalkers
Honestly they'll still be cool af
What’s with this word twisting
I swear I had like... 20 muties run right through me
and like 5 get me outside of the grab range
150-200 ping is wild lol
Still... with friends... it was still fun even tho it was 11/10 for the stress level
you had like
32 melee kills
take out your melee please
and put smite down
probably
Tbh I feel bad for dueling sword pysker enjoyers. It was a bit op but kept in line by the class. On zealot and vet? Way to strong. Shit would probably be one of the strongest melee on ogyrn as well. Point is unless they buff other stuff I feel like nerd inevitable.
It was low intensity pox gas too lol
I don't think it's that busted if you don't use fury of the faithful
the proper term is light gas
I hate gas puffing like nurgle fard entire vicinity.
<.<'
minor gastric distress
It's a better knife if you don't use ff
just some toots
Yea, idk why u died twice in a regular smelter complex game then
There was trapper got me on stair when I was shooting down burgle
That’s only one
Too bad
You don’t trust me playing with you
Yeah burgles suck
I trust you more than randos any day of the century
It's pretty bonkers with all three keystones.
and I haven't even played with you lol
I guess but ff just gives 1shots on anything, and 12-15k damage charges, much harder without it
Marty rending d4 is stupid.
Like... even the bad new players in this discord... are probably better than the randos I've seen...
If I queue with path I get bad luck and double down worse teaming with Gale if he see me bad playing
It's the combo of damage and the nature of the weapon, and the way you don't have to risk yourself like with knife
I mean... I'm literally hit or miss due to my adhd. I can play at a god-tier level one run, then die to something stupid the next
you should be trapped in the first place?
there's a trapper
you kill it first
I'm bad at the game but I can still manage that
It was silent
that net that was aimed at your teammate that gets you cause you dodged:
download spidey sense?
Get spidey sense mod.
you have so many cosmetics mod and zero performance ones
Yeah spidey sense helps a lot
No, that is first time get silent trapper I was focus downstairs shooting burgle
It has made my life so much easier x.x
It's not cheating when the devs can't be bothered to fix audio qs.
I don’t get silent trapper maybe different session
I also got downed by silent crusher
Cause I was focusing on a burgle
Then again... If I see a trapper icon(the spidey sense) I end up stopping what I am doing and hard focusing the trapper...
It's literally built into me
you can't call everything silent
I think I get the gist of it now
silent enemies exist but you're not seeing them anyways
you're tunnel visioning so fucking hard
When I just focus shooting on elite Enemy at distance out of crusher behind jumpscare attack me
stop tunnel visioning
I have that problem lol
Spidey sense literally fixes all silent enemy issues.
how did you let it get behind you?
I don’t hear trapper tho on the stair
On top of that I have perception issues for my vision
lmao
those + tunnel vision = rough times
There's definitely some audio issues, I've had points of no audio poxbusters until they're midflight
Still... the vision issues affect games like rogue legacy more, due to projectiles being more of an issue
I was standing behind door closed some guy open and I didn’t see crusher ahead then I look back shooting elite with helbore with 2 team killing it and out of know where crusher slam rock on me and the dude didn’t warn me near the door
that's called tunnel visioning
Been there...
I know you have like 3 different crash inducing cosmetic mods
just install spidey sense
it ain't that hard
Damn it guys, somehow talking with you is making me want to play more rogue legacy 2
I can't train my brain to use visuals like that, it's 2 late
I do still have awareness from my ears is just they don’t have audio crusher shout “YAAARGH”
Fat snark fix audio plz
It was unforeseen they silently smack rock overhead at me
turn back and look around you?
INSTALL SPIDEY SENSE
I've also had no audio maulers and whatnot, only indication was when the overhead started coming down lol.
Dodge slide is your friend
No it was behind me at the door when the guy opening it, just dark room one you drop down from tall area for viral extraction mission
I don’t wanna install complexity stuff
he's not willing to improve, it's fine
install cheats
i have improved
Complexity? It adds flashy colors to your screen. Flashy color bad. Kill flashy color.

I'm half deaf
cool im not
let me have my hearing aid
okay u can have it
But the screens already a visual clusterfuck a lot of times 
Oof...
I've dealt with worse huds before
it ain't that bad
I use crit flamer just so I never have to reload to harm screens like yours.
Nah not the hud, everything else flying across the screen
Next your going to say you play with head Bob and motion blur.
Lost cause, you do you boo boo.

The long and short is if the game functioned properly, we wouldn't need mods to compensate 
I haven't noticed too many audio problems recently
I notice them a lot less with spidey sense. The visual aid makes me not notice the silent trapper. Mainly because is see that sickly yellow color and desire blood.
I think spidey sense mod just looks ugly on screen
Yeah
Too much shit going on as is, mixed in with trash whatnot looking for visual indicators
Can't you edit to be almost whatever you want in terms of looks?
it's all in the middle of the screen
if it was looking like
high alert from COD (edge of screen)
I think I'd consider it
this may be the first time a woman has ever said this to me
Pretty sure there is just an audio alert mod to. Also one that puts a text alert on the side of your screen.
That is not advisable.
what would y'all say is the best anti-crusher gun for zealot?
The emperor has no plans for companionship for you, only for the killing of heretics.
im sure kez tried
Revolver can one tap headshot.
With right setup
I assume surgical with the rending on crit? Yeah, I've never been able to get it to one-tap
Bolter is another good option for magdumping on armored
revolver with +carapace, surgical/handcannon, and anoint and a duellist proc one taps them
bolter with with puncture shattering is an ensured 4 tap as long as like 2 shots were to the head i think
Just don't shoot bulwark shields because they don't stagger like they used to really, better to wait for an opening
boltgun takes 5 (4 + bleed) unless u run anoint in blood
heres the crusher one tap
what do you mean anoint and a duelist proc? I'm a bit lost
LMAO WHAT
oh that anoint ok
Grenades benefit from active weapon buffa.
Knife is are Grenade.
Rending shredders on vet with d4 isn't bad either.
They're buffing plasma gun too apparently 
actually i think im tripping
aintnoway they're buffing plasma
Yep
i dont think revolver can one shot them
based based
THAT WAS A JOKE
THAT WAS A JOKE POST
THEY ARENT BUFFING PLASMA
100 cleave to 150 should have been an obvious giveaway
Mebe it's two? I might be thinking of prenerf handcannon.
I'd rather magdump with a bolter. I don't trust myself to do crit headshots when a pack of crushers are charging at me
but throwing knives can as you can see
with the same setup

tknives have a higher total damage to the head on a crit than revolver does, so when you give them 60% rending and a bunch of buffs they just kinda die
and yes knifes are silly. I remember using them with uncanny for hilarious effect but that seems to be patched out now
it is not
really? huh.
Narp
that exact same effect is what im using in that video
They would have to fix the spaghetti Lua for that.
forcing the tknife to crit with surgical, and making the knife have rending with handcannon cuz it crit
well, same issue. in a big messy fight I'd rather take the brainless option
Nah they should buff plasma so something can keep up with ds4
man people are really heated up over the dueling sword huh
@twilit cloak just run bolter, shattering impact puncture, unyielding/carapace
yes
i am
Yea the streamers got everyone all riled up
What other buffs coming? Hope they don't nerf my flashlight vet, recon last go brrt.
They should buff stubbers.
@twilit cloak and if you throw a throwing knife while switching to bolter it'll skip the animation
that too
the wielding animation? good to know
its muscle memory now for me
What blessings and perks should I use for the shock maul again?
Don't harp me just answer
But will the knife apply brittleness/bleed (assuming the blessings are there ofc)
skullcrusher high voltage/trauma
Skull crusher and zappy damage
well you should use an actually good build
:3
I'm having fun with things rn
can it get trauma? though it had hammerblow
is it a good idea to run flak instead of unyielding? cuz I wanna get rid of maulers too
oh
yeah that
impact blessing
whatever
skullcrusher + falter
this is to pair with a devil claw sword so I really need something to fuck up armor
hammerblow hits stagger breakpoints for skullcrusher
falter does the same thing without stacking
hammerblow gives rager stagger at 5 stacks
on weakspot hit
falter gives u rager weakspot stagger without any prep
Well if I'm playing zealot and already taking the stagger perks
Do I need to take Falter?
I have GW and Hammer of Faith
Falter is only really for ragers
its still going to take 3 shots regardless whether you hit the head or body with or without a flak perk on a puncture/shatter bolter
plus the perk only applies while the gun is in your hand
What perks though would serve best?
because it's only 13.625 maniac stagger on weakspot and rager has 25 stagger resist (weakspot) and needs at least 6 stagger to break combo
Punishment is a meme unless you’re just paying the piety tax
not enough still
also unyielding for beast of nurgle 
fuck beast of nurgle
brittle bleed that bastard
oh I'm bringing my hammer if I'm doing the event mission
that's not a concern for me
I've been doing so much Ogryn for bursting the BON in 10 secs
yeah but if its just one (usually) it's not too bad to deal with
I can just dump an extra mag into it or whatever
but if flak doesnt help me against maulers anyway then ye, not much reason to keep it on
ds4 isnt broken guys its not
it can only do almost everything in the game ridiculously well with ease
Accounting for ammo is for vets, just dump bolter indiscriminately like I do
Have you considered the possibility that you’re just good/good with that particular weapon ?
Nothing says good with the weapon than
Holding m1
Pressing f
Letting go into weakspot and outdoing all the possible damage other wpns couldve done in one hit
+ 🖱️
3 inputs
While being fast as fuck having great dodge
That argument would've been suitable if any other clip was posted before
Actually rlly unfortunately lmfao
Other than that one
3 inputs man

2 if you dont count releasing of a button as an input
If you get reductionist enough you can make anything sound stupid
yes but this is ds4 we're talking about
Yes
its literally ds4
One weapon
Ogryn gets a 2handed pickaxe with the slowest movespeed in the game and medicore horde clear just to one shot crushers.
Like all it takes to be good at codslop is hold right and left click at the right time
We're not reducing anything else other than that weapon
Zealot gets to be sonic and do the same thing.
It excels in boss kill, it excels in all forms of armor kill
And it has a stagger everything button
I feel morally awful even running the DS5 now
Two hitting crushers is awesome
Lmfao
Oh yea can't forget. D4 movement tech
… what are you listening to lol
Has better dodges on -5 than the evis does normally
Meow pointing this out to me killed me
at -9/5
LMFAO
on ds5
Yes yes I’m aware of all this I use it as well, probably with the same blessings
Really ?????
Decent base block eff to.
Based. I always need more stuff to listen to
the muncher
da moose
Whoever mentioned the psyker m1 build... Yeah no that shit is stupid lmao

It’s so based and I hope they buff it
Wut build dat?
Max movespeed scrier or something?
I'm just using pygex's smite m1 build from the psyker atheneum and yeah
use electrokinetic staff with surge nexus blessing
When DS gets nerfed, I'll softly sit back on my heavy sword
since when did he go that far
I still like them very much
heavy swords are balanced if anything
extremely satisfying to use
clear strength and weaknesses
Extremely mediocre in a game with so many armored enemies
They cant destroy any carapace without charge like DS can but they have good cleave and good breakpoints
it's great vs flak
a carapace weakness and neutral vs unyielding is not a deal breaker for a horde clear and elite killer
the only way it should ever get any sort of buff is if they nerf Deathblow/BM
Yeah, a single strike going through 3 ragers and killing them is a dopamine boost
they are not balanced
revolver is a straight line
i know
tho i believe theyre not stupidly overpowered
I think they'll go right under the radar regardless
the only weapon that is anywhere close to weak rn is taxes
they probably have the best armor damage out of all the swords
This has always been the case.
But fuck taxes.
only weapon doomed to fall under the radar is shredder pistol lol
thing has not been touched
Bro they already nerfed the hell out of bromentum what more do you want ??
please buff taxes
please buff taxes
please buff taxes
please buff taxes
please buff taxes
please buff taxes
please buff taxes
please buff taxes
please buff taxes
please buff taxes
please buff taxes
please buff taxes
no they buffed it
Remembering when I said I wanted a big two handed sword for Zealot. Oh sweet vindication!!!

wtf do you mean "what more do I want" the BM rework was overall a buff, not a nerf
delete brutal momentum
are we playing the same game
evis3
I mean, they would have to insanely buff shredder pistol to make it relevant, imo
Yea
delete scavenger
The one where the meme shovel can’t one shot 5 crushers anymore
But not useful.
sure, funny infinite cleave with fall off is fun on antax, but the rework letting you one shot 4 elites cause 0 fall off is objectively more useful
ogryns when they can't play with lower intelligence than their characters
opinions on scav/survivalist may change soon
High intensity true duo with a newer player. Very fun
nope
My duo with dorn
then delete scav
He clutched hard at end
well tbh idk if its getting touched
Can't belive we play a game where chainaxes are gud.
but thats not where the basis of my claim lies
granted you now pay more taxes each year
i can barely believe it, it used to be so bad
I think Fatshark should go ahead and publicly confirm that DS's gonna get nerfed
wdym
elaborate
is it because of havoc
buff psyker
more elaboration would require me to give sources for my opinions
if havoc spams even more spe/elites at you it's a buff to scav
you mean it takes 1 heavy for 3 flak ragers
This.
sure if you do ff
Claps crushers to
but the base is bad
ok so do u mean people's opinions changing in a good or bad way
uncanny knife isn't base
The impression is survivalist is the best or one of the best auras in the game.
just no other buffs
and knife and duelists are the meta weapons, it's not fair to compare a base weapon to a meta weapon with blessings xd
Even after it's nerf
i think the sentiment will move closer towards incredibly strong instead of strong but i can live without it
If knife have blessing weakspot ignore hitmass
oh okay so, you don't do what is needed for the breakpoints, and then complain it doesn't work?
ok CIVI 24/7 in havoc confirmed
it's either that
or they're nerfing ammo spawns
either way it's good
doesn't matter
i won't be able to
All Nurgle Blessed Enemies, Armoured Enemies, no ranged weapons, no Blitzes
We either get in early December
Or we don't see it till next year in march
"No Dual sword" challenge
its coming the 3rd
3 years in december
but yeh heavy swords are underwhelming af, especially with the mobility they have
Job life. Getting cucked.
just get disabled
They are overhyped usually, but we all have bias towards certain weapons
it could happen during the process of learning the job
heavy swords are not overhyped what is this lol
they're underhyped for good reason looks likle
they are weaker than the meta, but they are not underwhelming, they do everything they are good at extremely well
Also been playing knife this evening and I hope it gets nerfed with duelling swords
knife will never get nerfed
nerf thunderhammer too
Not saying they're bad, but all of y'all swear heavy swords are the second coming of Jesus of Nazareth, it's a good weapon, just that lol
it always fly under the radar
it's absurd
yes it's good xd matt said it's bad
Xd
something that can help a lot of these weapons would be better mobility
just drag your swing
Also knife mk6 is??? Tiers of consistent why does a finesse weapon have cleave and wide screen attacks xd
im talking about the mobility in general being slow as shit
I think I'm gonna become a knife bitch for a couple days
wtf do you mean
heavy sword has slightly above average mobility
1.05 dodge distance at cap, 1.0 being the average
thx god i enjoy big chainswords too much to play with these boring ass normal knives
ok give like a slight increase in movement speed so it doesnt feel like a slug when played
but it doesn't feel like a slug
I think I opened Pandora's box for myself and don't know what to do now lolol
if you're not using charge it really does
like idk what you are experiencing outside of being terminally addicted to knife/duelist
which in that case, your perspective is skewed by using the fastest, most mobile weapons and then going down to an above average mobility weapon
the only cure, only playing with class unique weapons
like giving a speed addict ritalin
i have 400 hours on ogryn
i am the chaxe main
True, I need the greatsword asap for the flamer gsword combo
the weapon that until recently was tied for the worst mobility in the game, including with ogryn weapons
your perspective is skewed if you think heavy sword is sluggish
Have you done the heavy hitter karsolas pickaxe with stubber type of build? :3
nah, but i've used all the pickaxes a good bit. They're nice
i generally use rumber/kickback for everything
It's impressive how shit pickaxes are outside of melee build and how consistent they are with melee talents, they become pretty good, although just to the level of any other class melee xd
Stabbers don't have enough power for their trade offs imo
Kickback is pretty good, from what I've heard
guess no buff for tac axes then
The fact that the consensus for the heavy swords moves from "they are shit" to" they are bordeline overpowered" with "they are fine" going around is probably a good sign
I mean... I have them more for specials than anything else
Kickback is pretty brutal now, it was already good and they buffed it when the pickaxes came pretty sure
@south grove @frosty herald this should have hit the dog idc
Using knives is throwing
heavy swords are slow and mediocre imo
Recon las is legit better than all the stubbers besides maybe vs unyielding
Ill use my actualy good build now
same with devils claws
They should have some kind of counter for heavy swords lol. Counter strike down on th 9 would be hawt.
this guy doesn't like opinions that aren't his
Objectively they are ok, just that, I can dish out the same damage with any weapon that I like better, not even super meta ones
Heavy Sword was never considered shit, except maybe back when most people didn't have the right blessings unlocked for them.
IME they were considered minimum borderline overpowered (being bad at carapace was the only balancing factor) and brain-dead easy to use on top of it. Now they're considered "mostly fine" because Knife has always been stupid and now DS4 is on Zealot
very few weapons can match heavysword in both horde clear and elite clear
The heavy attack on mutant feel powerful slash
rashad matches elites, but heavy sword beats horde clear still, chswords do horde faster but elites worse
When handcannon effected melee it was bonkers.
most of the chainweapons are decent but feel like shit
the opposite really, they would be mid without deathblow
the animations feel so bad
oh fuck i didn't even saw they were adding new gear with the havoc patch man fuck
headtaker rampage is still completely viable
It was looked down on by noobs that didn't realize the elite killing potential and the overhead/up slash of the good marks, and yeah, it was skewered by not having the right blessings
why does fs hates me
but without deathblow, it would be in a really mid spot with no real reason to run it over dclaw/chsword
i am firebombing sweden
For the chainaxes and 2handed swords sure. But I think the 1handed chain swords are bit weird
Yes, but then lots of weapons are Blessing dependent, and building your weapon has been a stupid dreary casino until like 6 weeks ago
I can't do any chainweapons, even the heavy evis feels awful
Sweden already have mass immigration doing crime
No need firebombing
Evis 15 feels good imo
Crusher, hammer (played well), evis mk15, other classes have less options now that I realize
hammer does not match elite or horde clear
in the slightest
thammer doesnt match hsword in horde clear
neither does evi
hammer does big thigns
carapace, unyielding, and one off elites
heavy sword does 4 elites at once
crusher is the funny, pushing everyone to the ground
On perfect aligned swings, that doesn't happen every time
crusher is probably the pinnacle of weapons in terms of being well rounded
what
mk9 heavy loop is perfectly horizontal
Heavy Sword can just Unga Bunga Heavy Spam into Rager packs and get away with it, few other weapons can. Crusher maybe but I haven't really used it
Most of the bluntweapons feel like shit too
takes 8 hits to the head to kill anything
Crusher with stagger perks can knock them around forever, unless there are 10 at the same spot
mk6 and mk7 have a bit weirder angle but it is still more than enough to proc bm 4 times
learn to aim in melee lol
Yeah crusher can with the plus of stunlocking every single one
are you going to say crusher feels like shit

yes
Maybe you need to be less defensive about your heavy sword, then we can talk lmao
ez block
Most the animations and impact feel like shit
it's just baiting
Matt is strange
thats my biggest problem with most wepaons
6 isn't bad. It's heavy are pretty good for dealing with ragers.
terrible animations/sound
stop being incorrect
it isn't bad, I agree with that
Even without them, it has such crazy stagger that they just go down
Heard T-Ham was buffed but it still sacrifices basically every other aspect of performance for Single Target Damage With Charged Heavies. At least it fucking swings those downward now lmfao
Lmao
heavy sword has head magnetism and every mark has heavies that hit 4 ragers
This is Twitter level blocking people
not perfectly lining up is such a weird thing to say cause then that would apply to rashad as well
which it doesn't
heavy sword is one of the most generous weapon to hit heads with
I can't be bothered with either thammer tbh. Just not for me.
I can end an hsword 7 heavy 1 like 6 inches over someone's head and still hit it
HS drags well.
Yeah I'm still getting used to it but it's definitely key to getting the most of out hsword
if it was mainstream it would have to be balanced for it and it would lose a lot of its identity
a boss flattener should be niche
bad weapon
I think hammer is an above average weapon
name one weapon worse than it
niche i guess, but ive clutched with it numerous times
It's a meme weapon, imo
it has really high cleave and can get power blessings
Taxes
you're bad
its better than most people think at horde clear
"kill the boss in one hit" weapon, except there is knife and DS too
but its not amazing at it
This chat doesn't play hammer properly and it shows, but maybe I just like the hammer so much that I outperform meta dudes
What do you consider an average weapon
Where's laz when you need him lol
it just underperforms everything else in 99% of games
So ironhelm is bad?
Shrug. To be fair you might not be wrong. I would still use taxe over thammer. Hating taxes is meme.
probably shockmauls or something that doesnt obliterate like knife or ds
but guys look how good the heavy sword is
everything is bad compared to the ds4 checkmate liberals
"If we cant buy FromSoftware, we'll buy the next big thing"
Big If True
Also how does Sony still have money
knife and DS should be excluded from any and all conversations not directly about them
taxe is way better than people give it credit for
Crucis is the only real mark, don't play ironhelm, and don't listen to the chat lmao
True, its cheating
its just a weaker rashad with higher mobility
they are OP, everyone knows it
my fav weapon in the game
also has a special attack that stuns every enemy in the game on headshot
even ccrushers
:( I have ironhelm I inspired from one zealot cleave through horde with single charge attack
I'm just not a huge fan of all the clicking and the autoswing mods feel clunky to me. In other word my old man hands hurty
crusher is a bad weapon but thunder hammer is above average, greatest hits
i mean if you fucking suck with the hsword then yeah obviously
fair enough
im opposite
i can't stand slower weapons
or weapons that have heavy horde clear loops
even if i hit every hit its not gonna be faster than holding down the trigger with a bolter
i find heavy attack horde clear loops result in more disables because i get animation locked more
silent dogs and trappers fuck me up
can't react in time compared to light attacking weapons
Learn the Crucis, way better results, since the buffs light attacks feel pretty damn good
I just need to get gud. Start doing more finger therapy.
yes the mag dump high damage weapon will be better against some targets than the sword
and has long reload
hi meow
yarp
right so whats the point of using it when the balance is absolutely fucked
and is designed for punching through armor / hard targets
heblo
I used the crucis (since before unlocked and loaded) just not my favorite
me when my bolter has an empty mag
That's what they would call a skill issue
Empty bolter is fine as long as I got me some knives left
the hsword?
to save ammo, have fun, preference, hsword does better against certain targets, can kill 4 ragers in one swing
take ur pick
i too, call broken game mechanics such as animation cancelling wall running tokyo drifting flying dogs and ninja trappers "skill issues"

man people love the hyperspecific cleaving ragers senario
or consider that the hsword is really strong
a few games ago a dog corrected course mid-air just to hit me after i dodged
and its sole weakness is carapace and unyielding
i alt f4'd
It's not eally hyperspecific, it happens quite often. Ragers are just an exemple, could be 4 gunners, or 3 specials
Sometimes you gotta dodge to dodge dog.
if it's on your screen and grouped up, heavy sword will cleave through it
Idk how strong it is when you can whip out a number of guns and obliterate whatever is infront of you and you don't need to spend time picking them off
Tbf I haven’t play zealot for long time
If not ingame than with co.puter
itll cleave but you cant tell me it doesn't need stacks or something
that’s why guns are limited by ammo and reloads
Hsword can one shot any elite / specialist / disabler that isn't a mauler, crusher, reaper, or bulwark
so the important ones lol
Using FotF can let you one shot a mauler or reaper
Ita decent vs reapers.
Wish my psyker buddy could hear this discussion
