[burnt belfry]

Its peak

[undone pewter]

Penance.

[hard nexus]

it’s okay, havoc basically forces them into powersword and plasma or infantry las

[winged vessel]

holy that weapon is almost completely set

[grizzled aspen]

@hard nexus how do you feel about relic blade being better eviscerator?

[burnt belfry]

Bit of spit and polish and itll be perfect >:3

[grizzled aspen]

(I'm going to run away before I get smited)

[light badge]

spit

The worms are in my brain

[winged vessel]

meow's honest reaction to meeting bark (hes the relic blade enthusiast)

[grizzled aspen]

Bark?

You mean @remote lark

[hard nexus]

sad but not surprised

[grizzled aspen]

Lumii is a turd.

[cloud hornet]

I'm feelin' Cranial Grounding + Heatsink/Wrath, but I might be way off.

[hard nexus]

tbf almost everything is a better evis

so

[twilit basalt]

I stretch

[grizzled aspen]

Honestly, same, but unfortunately fatshark won't buff evisc because mk15 rev can kill a crusher in 1 go.

[light badge]

Lumii is Cica if Cica never played on anything above standard heresy

[grizzled aspen]

No, Lumii is Cica if Cica was a degenerate and a furry with an obsession for vrchat.

[frosty herald]

Have a damage cap higher of 4 and its peak

[grizzled aspen]

Just remove the damage cap.

It doesn't need to exist.

[light badge]

Is Cica not a degenerate furry?

Because they definitely emanate that vibe

[grizzled aspen]

This fucking relic blade in my hand cleaves just fine and will actually kill everything in the cleave.

[rigid lagoon]

eating so well with the relic blade

[merry flume]

i wanna blow lumi up with my mind

[grizzled aspen]

No, Cica is just a femboy.

[rocky nacelle]

alright

I charged my sword to full

shot a moonlight greatsword beam

instant +60 combo

[grizzled aspen]

[merry flume]

idk what you say if you don't pick this you suck

[bitter charm]

liking the new toys are we

[rocky nacelle]

WAT

[bitter charm]

it was all doom and gloom in here 2 days ago

[rocky nacelle]

thats a thing

thats peak

[grizzled aspen]

Actually I'm of the opinion that the perfect block blessings are best for the mk2 and monster duelling.

[twilit basalt]

what makes a perfect block

[light badge]

@rocky nacelle I can't get on rn, please tell me

[rocky nacelle]

no

[brave plover]

What blessings and perks should I put on the MK X big sword?

[grizzled aspen]

Block right as an attack would hit you.

[light badge]

Does it get cucked by carapace or bulwarks

[rocky nacelle]

she doesnt know

🙂‍↕️

[bitter charm]

I like Rampage and the one that gives 25% heat back when you lock out

[light badge]

I am not a knower

[grizzled aspen]

Afaik it does not give a singular shit.

2shot crusher bp iirc from what Para said in dorncord.

[flint sable]

When everything goes bad turn the aggressiveness to 11.

[frosty herald]

Melees a burster and kills almost the entire team

[rocky nacelle]

honestly

a WC build on it sounds fun

but I cant be arsed

scriers force sword

[grizzled aspen]

I must use this thing with martyrdom.

I fucking have to try it.

[lusty turtle]

light spamming 🥹

[flint sable]

I was gonna push it back but someone on back lane shot it

[bronze linden]

The PSword may well get me to divide my time more evenly between Vet and Zealot

Instead of just playing Zealot to farm penances

[north sedge]

THERE'S OTHER ATTACKS?!

[rocky nacelle]

oh yeah for those that forgot the obvious funny staring them in the face

cough warp unbound + force greatsword special

[flint sable]

The first heavy charge attack from the combo make you lunge a little bit forward so you can use that for extra mobility

[lost solar]

this is another case of why the fuck does this even exist fatshark

are you actually mentally unstable

[flint sable]

and 3rd / 4th attacks are heavy cleaves

[lost solar]

idk man this sword again

good base but its so intentionally clunky

[hallow summit]

wait so new zealot sword is peak?

[flint sable]

so light spam 1 and 2 then heavy the rest of the time

[lost solar]

with the varying attack patterns

[frosty herald]

Yes

[sullen forge]

So guess who got time to play the update cause I fucking threw up, ME!!!!!

[lost solar]

idk why fatshark is so cocksucking on these changing attack patterns

[frosty herald]

Extremely peak if your good

[rocky nacelle]

also yea @light badge remember

its an FSword

gets force push

easy bulwark counter

[hallow summit]

can i get an explanation my game is updating still

[light badge]

True

[frosty herald]

Its complex

[hallow summit]

ok but y peak than

[grizzled aspen]

Do you want the moveset wall of text I've made?

[light badge]

It's more the packs of bulwarks I'm concerned about

[hallow summit]

i need the juicy details

[light badge]

But that's what the staff is for anyway

[flint sable]

The special ability crank the sword on to god tier but swings build up a heat up meter

[hallow summit]

oh god just a quick explanation will do

[rocky nacelle]

force push and thrust into 1 shot (probably) with warp rider + unstable power

[frosty herald]

It outperforms evis by a mile has a good moveset of itself and the activation mode is really good

[sullen forge]

Whats the opinion on the swords so far though

[hallow summit]

bet

[frosty herald]

I would get cranial and wrath for havoc

[rocky nacelle]

I might just go unstable power/riposte

[frosty herald]

Otherwise cranial energy leaking

[light badge]

Could you post the blessing list?

[frosty herald]

Im at work so i havent had the chance to play yet

[hollow moth]

The 2h psword is awesome

[lost solar]

no need for blessing lists since its a bunch of useless garbage + rampage

[hallow summit]

oh thats ridiculous

[hollow moth]

The sounds and animations are very satisfying

[light badge]

IT HAS WRATH?

[flint sable]

I went cranial and heatsink to keep the special mod on as i'm good at landing weakspot with a melee

[light badge]

Holy fucking peak

[hallow summit]

psyker getting the buff they so needed

thank god

[rocky nacelle]

bait used to be believable

[light badge]

15 extra toughness

Game breaking

[rocky nacelle]

since im on scriers I can go riposte for 50% crit

[misty nova]

Wrath DevaStrike gaming

[frosty herald]

Psyker needed it...

[rocky nacelle]

with unstable power

[sullen forge]

It has Blazing....

I can make my joke build

[rocky nacelle]

oh hey look soyker can exist in melee now

[rocky nacelle]

doesnt work on the special

dont even try it

[frosty herald]

Wrath momentum

[sullen forge]

Exploding

[rocky nacelle]

just go unstable power momentum

[frosty herald]

Oh yea

[rocky nacelle]

you get cleave + more

[frosty herald]

Strenght is power right

[rocky nacelle]

cough warp rider

cough warp unbound

[frosty herald]

O

[twilit basalt]

3rd brunts click

[light badge]

Ya I'm gonna be running wrath momentum

[plain minnow]

2H blaze sword is very odd in design. It is not very good on normal attack and it want you to charge up before using special

[rocky nacelle]

I think its good on the lights

cant agree

[light badge]

Unless it builds peril by itself

Which I don't think it does?

[rocky nacelle]

??????????

force great sword

force

great sword

[severe nexus]

wHAT BUILD Are we running now with the sword 🙂

[frosty herald]

Hahnda you dummy

[light badge]

I have seen zero footage of it actually increasing peril

[rocky nacelle]

bro

[twilit basalt]

crit book boy isnt fantastic for this sword

[rocky nacelle]

you really think them shooting a fucking MAGIC BEAM

doesnt require peril

psyker mains

[lusty turtle]

It nearly has comparable damage to empowered greatsword on its normal attacks

[rocky nacelle]

i swear

[frosty herald]

Special attack

[light badge]

It has a separate gauge and I'm sleep deprived bruh idk

[rocky nacelle]

if you slapped psykers with their own weapons they wouldnt know what they did

[frosty herald]

It does very good boss damage

Also if you guys havent noticed yet

[rocky nacelle]

i swear

[rocky nacelle]

that gauge is for killing things

to buff the beam

[frosty herald]

Look at the finesse stat modifier on greatswords

[plain minnow]

Normal motion isn't as good as relic blade. It clearly is less choppy.

[lusty turtle]

Also good reach (you can safely fight CS from outside its attack range, except grab)

[rocky nacelle]

you're comparing a zealot weapon to a psyker weapon

of course they are going to be fundamentally different

not sure what you expected

[frosty herald]

Force greatsword has insane crit weakspot modifiers

[light badge]

So you can just use it without charging it like, at all?

[rocky nacelle]

yes

[light badge]

Noted

[rocky nacelle]

if you choose so

[light badge]

And also peak

[hallow summit]

better than them not giving psyker a buff at all like always so im not complaining

[merry flume]

ok gamers whos gaming

[light badge]

I will be gaming in roughly an hour

ish

[frosty herald]

Me in an hour

[frosty herald]

Hahna toothpaste demon

[hallow summit]

i will be on as soon as the updates finished

[frosty herald]

LMAO

[heady frost]

supposedly new vet weapon comes next year

wonder what its gonna be

[lusty turtle]

To bring it in line with vet and stop psyker having 80 toughness on havok 40

[hallow summit]

i want a new vet class weapon

[frosty herald]

Either melta or powerfist

[hallow summit]

lacking fr

[hallow summit]

i feel like power fist would make more sense cause melta is too close to flamer already

unless they made its dmg INSANE

[frosty herald]

You are dumb stupid ugly stinky mean repugnant and evil

[lusty turtle]

What

[fresh nacelle]

hello I am dumb. what is new 2h sword dumping?

[lusty turtle]

Melta is nothing like flamer

[frosty herald]

Look at the melta in boltgun and space marine 2

[hallow summit]

wait i may be thinking of a differnt gun

[frosty herald]

You are

[heady frost]

supposedly mobility but someone correct me if im wrong

[hallow summit]

after research i thinks its cool but i still feel like powerfist would be cooler

[sullen forge]

I frew up

[frosty herald]

https://youtu.be/QXIVbMDaAxY?si=Ii2UG2C0K-wQukUz

[sullen forge]

so Im not going to work

[craggy python]

oh, there arent any new cosmetics?

[sullen forge]

so give me like

a few minutes to update

[merry flume]

vc?

[frosty herald]

(Btw the plasma incinerator does more damage when fully charged than melta)

Melta is ass at high difficulty

[sullen forge]

Atm no, I dont think you want to hear Gale random mute himself because he might be throwing up again

[merry flume]

oh you're actually sick

[sullen forge]

Yeah no im being dead serious

[frosty herald]

https://tenor.com/view/gag-gif-17244252139129953341

[harsh quartz]

so how bad was it, did we receive a nerf?

[sullen forge]

I woke up, went man my stomach feels off

and then just ran to the bathroom when I realized what was happening

[frosty herald]

Gale took fent

[jagged cradle]

Is that your excuse for the day gale

[hallow summit]

Gales folding rn

[frosty herald]

Recieves punishment from god the next day

[jagged cradle]

I respect it

[merry flume]

prereq to havok is a maelstrom and it's exactly what you think rn if you play with randoms

[sullen forge]

Yeah...

But no my throat burns still

[rocky nacelle]

what are these randumbs doing

[sullen forge]

shit wasn't pleasant

[merry flume]

throwing

[frosty herald]

Constant wipes on normal maelstrom?

[light badge]

How bad is Havoc btw?

[hallow summit]

you should drink milk to help 😈

[sullen forge]

No

[frosty herald]

Remember both of them count

[sullen forge]

No I dont think I will

[merry flume]

i only play auric

[hallow summit]

LOL

[light badge]

I'm scared of it, from what I've read here

[jagged cradle]

The overwhelming urge to toss my education for one day of darktide

[frosty herald]

If you cant even complete a malice maelstrom uninstall the game

[sullen forge]

well apparently the Veteran meta got hit extremely fucking hard with it

[hallow summit]

depending on the education i think it could be worth it

[frosty herald]

https://tenor.com/view/mods-push-back-his-hairline-gif-11241907652566626707

[jagged cradle]

College

[hallow summit]

ok well

[jagged cradle]

I have some important classes today

[light badge]

The veteran meta of.. VoC DS and Plasma?

[sullen forge]

Like the only Viable weapon is ILAG 7 and 3 possible Melees Caxe 8 (Achlys), HS9, and PS6

[light badge]

How exactly?

[sullen forge]

Plasma and bolter get no ammo

75% reduced ammo tins

[frosty herald]

Oh yeah plasma has heat debuffs

[sullen forge]

you basically cant use them or extremely sparingly

[hallow summit]

culinary school let me call off for the darktide event so i cant relate

[light badge]

Jesus

[lusty turtle]

its not that bad until like

25

[burnt belfry]

Wait so is the Moebian 53rd gonna be an end of week reward?

[jagged cradle]

Sociology…

[frosty herald]

Nope

[harsh quartz]

honestly good, voc with iron will never made much sense

[frosty herald]

Look at the penance list

[sullen forge]

Yeah its why im figuring I just use Shock trooper ILAG

[hallow summit]

YEESH yeah dont skip LOL

[sullen forge]

and experiment between Caxe 8, HS9, or PS6

I really

[jagged cradle]

But darktide !

[sullen forge]

dont want to use the PS

I hate it

[hallow summit]

i agree dartide

[brave plover]

What blessings and perks should I put on the MK X big sword?

[burnt belfry]

Was that nope for me or someone else

[severe nexus]

Would you go power output for mobility ?

[frosty herald]

For you

[burnt belfry]

Wait so how get??????

[sullen forge]

Overload seems so gimmicky

[twilit basalt]

this thing has some obscene range when you swing your mouse with it

[sullen forge]

I might make a build with it...

[frosty herald]

50 completed maelstrom runs for chest 25 for legs and 50 havoc games assisted for helmet

[hallow summit]

refering too what sire melks shlong?

[lusty turtle]

it pairs nicely with uhhhh heat sink if you want high up time

[light badge]

Genuinely the biggest waste of a blessing slot

[sullen forge]

let me cook

[light badge]

I am letting you cook

Merely out of morbid curiosity

[lusty turtle]

because it vents a bunch of your heat immediatly, and then heat sink makes the remaining heat degrade 100% faster iirc

[light badge]

And also because I NEED to know if lethal prox applies to it

Because that would be really fucking funny

[burnt belfry]

Oh this is gonna be a long day and what for the legs?

[frosty herald]

Problem being its fucking garbage

I was thinking unchained sienma

Not a little fart

[twilit basalt]

is that what we're calling it

[hallow summit]

might as well if your talking the new zealot sword cause it really does fuck

putting it same tier as duelling fs

[lusty turtle]

i don't think it will ever be that but it might get a tough up one day

[sinful widget]

Dsword still beats it

[hallow summit]

its also about to replace my evis if i vibe with the swing pattern

[sinful widget]

If dsword is s tier then psword is a tier

[light badge]

DS but without the mobility crutch

Tantalizing

[sinful widget]

Dsword still does better against armor

[burnt belfry]

Wait. Is overload just a peak blessing?

[brave plover]

Overload is BIS?

[hallow summit]

thank u for the confirmation i havnt had a chance to do a side by side yet

assuming your using uncanny precog for duelling?

[sinful widget]

Yeah

[hallow summit]

yeah i figured its kinda nuts

[sinful widget]

But psword is 10x more satisfying

[light badge]

We should remove uncanny I think

[sinful widget]

Also it doesnt feel like u are cheesing the game

[hallow summit]

wait so is it a light spam weapon or heavy attacks

[light badge]

Very silly blessing

[sinful widget]

Depend on marls

[hallow summit]

yeah i forget to use my gun with dsword ;-;

[sinful widget]

But u can get away with light spam on mk10

Optimal is l1 l2 h3 h4

[hallow summit]

huh

[sinful widget]

For hordes

[craggy python]

which is siiiiiick

[sinful widget]

True

I didnt even notice the loop with how fast things just die

[raven swan]

For Fuck sake I just downloaded the update and...

I got veryfing files

😆

[sinful widget]

[misty nova]

No
Try pairing with Lethal Proximity

No guarantees

[sinful widget]

Lmao radius for blast is only 3 meters or sth

Lp wont do shit

[humble wasp]

what is a dump stat on Relic blade?

[misty nova]

Mobility

[twilit basalt]

if you're charging into packs it'd be useful

[carmine falcon]

make awesome new weapon
the unique perks are subpar
nice

[merry flume]

vet died three times in the last auric i was in before we even got to mid event :)

[brave plover]

Overload + Energy Leakage is the way to go?

[carmine falcon]

actually jk sword looks awesome

[raven swan]

They nerfed them?

[sinful widget]

Grounding thingy + cleave on hit for me

[frosty herald]

Cranial energy leaking

Cranial wrath for havoc hitmass

[raven swan]

Verifying Files: 17%... this is slower than the actual update. I guess I won't play today

[misty nova]

3,6 radius

(it's dogshit)

[sinful widget]

Told ya

[misty nova]

I'm going Leakage Rampage

[merry flume]

i stopped verifying

[misty nova]

I don't get the perfect block shenanigans yet

[raven swan]

I will do what my old man used to do when he had to wait. Grab neswpaper (in my case smartphone) and go to the toilet

[light badge]

Man, what a sentence that is without Darktide context

[ornate bone]

"Removed hitstun from Gunner attacks."

cringe

"Removed pushback on Shotgunner attacks."

cringe

[sinful widget]

Love those changes xd

[rigid lagoon]

i mean, you can just say no, it doesn't affect anything

[light badge]

Indirect TWBS nerf 🙏

[merry flume]

see you in a hour lmao

[sinful widget]

Twbs ypur service is no longer required

[crimson shale]

Does scattershot not provide melee crit bonus anymore?

[opaque tangle]

gotta give the gumpies a chance to fight back against being stagger locked by a gunner

[craggy python]

bruh why is auric maelstrom full of worse players now

[raven swan]

I don't want to be the one coming later with complains about crashes

Auric mael

[craggy python]

im playing auric

[frosty herald]

Cause if im right normal maelstrom worked too

[ornate bone]

meal storm

[craggy python]

ive had 2 fails in a row with absolutely trash teammates

[raven swan]

@ornate bone I kinda agree with you. Only people that suffer from this are zaelots that don't know how to move

[light badge]

Havoc doesn't have matchmaking right? Only for teams?

[misty nova]

TWBS dead
2 points saved 🗣️

[light badge]

Or am I just wildly misinformed

[misty nova]

🗣️

[sinful widget]

Real

[ornate bone]

I play psyker religiously, so I got converted out of TWBS real soon

[raven swan]

Nice way to revive LFG 😆

[opaque tangle]

still a nice perk so you dont get air hockeyed on by a random pox up your cheeks, staggering you from a killing overhead on a crusher that is also overheading you

Lmfao

Its that bad?

[opaque tangle]

cant decide if cranial is adding a lot or not

heatsink's good tho

[craggy python]

but damn i wish we got new cosmetics

[heady frost]

we got the new havoc ones

[craggy python]

would love a relic blade skin that looked like rinda's sword

[heady frost]

recolour of existing one

[rocky nacelle]

the next time someone asks me if FSwords are bad against the carapace/annoying enemies

https://tenor.com/view/ishowspeed-try-not-to-laugh-gif-7682731162751353849

[frosty herald]

People are as usual bad at the game

[rocky nacelle]

mission start immediately 1 shot a mauler kill 2 ragers and almost 1 shot a crusher

🙂‍↕️

[lusty turtle]

iirc its about ~50% as effective vs heatsink, but comes with bonus damage

[opaque tangle]

no crusher one shot? bad build

[light badge]

time to see if I can open the game without crashing lol

[lusty turtle]

u running hud mods? i hear they have issues atm

[rough galleon]

holy shit it starts at malice, please drown me in a river

[heady frost]

so what blessings for the relic blade? heatsink and what

[opaque tangle]

cranial's p good

can always go with cleave perks

not the crit one tho--other one's way better

[tepid sorrel]

:3c

[opaque tangle]

[light badge]

disabled NumericUI and ChatBlock, since those ones are known crash causers

we'll see about perilgauge

please god don't let perilgauge be bricked

[bold pumice]

No changes to the zealot with dueling sword?

[tepid sorrel]

:3c :3c

[opaque tangle]

[frosty herald]

The evil is here

Ancient shoo

[lusty turtle]

no DS changes yet

[frosty herald]

Go moderate the modding discord

[opaque tangle]

Nope, buffed without being told in notes

now has 100% more finesse

[light badge]

aw man, I thought I woulda had this one

[opaque tangle]

it needs it

[heady frost]

hmm, so heatsink and wrath

lets see

[bold pumice]

lolz

stupid strong

[astral brook]

What are yall running for relic blade?

[bold pumice]

really needs nerf

[opaque tangle]

make more weapons have innate armor pen

kinda why I don't use other weapons if it doesn't do enough to carapace

[astral brook]

Does bonus for flak not help reach anybreakpoints?

[opaque tangle]

none that matter

[astral brook]

Fair

[lean lark]

+elites is enough

[frosty herald]

Not just carapace?

[astral brook]

I will run this

[lusty turtle]

i just run cara unyeilding

[frosty herald]

Activated is very strong

[rocky nacelle]

let me show you true power

[lean lark]

dont need it

[tiny gazelle]

is the explosion blessing actually usable

[rocky nacelle]

real loadout

[lean lark]

no

its 30dmg

[tiny gazelle]

😔

trash game

relic blade is just a love child between bret longsword and exec

@rocky nacelle what are you running on blade?

[tiny gazelle]

https://tenor.com/view/vermintide-grail-knight-kruber-gif-5598768999825553829

based

[rocky nacelle]

bro ainz

15 stacks of DD

a PA thrust attack

almost 1 shots crushers

[plush estuary]

guh

[rocky nacelle]

oopsie

and it does 1 shot maulers

[opaque tangle]

dude does that thing have unstable/precog

and built in finesse

[rocky nacelle]

you bet your ass

and im using scriers with precog node and DD

and warp rider

so im maximizing unstable power/precog

[sinful widget]

Isnt this zealot chat?

[steel agate]

That’s the beauty of zel chat

[opaque tangle]

I gotta make a meme of the dude ☮️ ing over the grave with ds (for psyker) just cuz of that absurd thing

[opaque tangle]

Ok, so

[grizzled tusk]

so what's the play pattern, scrier melee anything tough, assail / shotgun hordes?

[opaque tangle]

that will happen anyways because dash has 100% rending

[rocky nacelle]

honestly

the sword is so fucking good it can actually kill everything

[opaque tangle]

we're inclusive to diet zealots

[rocky nacelle]

but the shotgun is to make it so you never get surrounded or overwhelmed in the first place

plus shotgun is good for rager/mauler packs

DBarrel 1 shots maulers on gunker

[grizzled tusk]

and assail covers snipers

[rocky nacelle]

and ranged spam

yes

while DBarrel and FGS smoke everything close-mid range

covers everything

[opaque tangle]

but what if no ammo

[grizzled tusk]

sounds fun, gotta craft myself something like that when I get resources

[opaque tangle]

[rocky nacelle]

I promise you

ammo is not an issue

there was a time when I had to clutch on gunker with just my knife and assail cause no DBarrel ammo

and I kited for about 2 minutes just fine

(cause knife mobility is broken)

but assail covered my gun needs

assail is a gun

[molten isle]

oh nvm

[opaque tangle]

an ok gun

it does what it needs to

[rocky nacelle]

a gun that stunlocks ragers/gunners/shotgunners

can stop reapers from spamming you down

pretty good fuckin gun

if you ask me

[opaque tangle]

but does it one shot crushers>

bad skill

(i hate this community)

[rocky nacelle]

nope but my FGS does

and my knife can just 2-3 shot it

I usually have shit that can cover everything in a build

usually

[opaque tangle]

Oh ok, so I just replicated that weird interaction again

who playtests over in fat shark

[rocky nacelle]

@light badge @sullen forge @merry flume are you noobs all partied up @grizzled aspen

[feral falcon]

damn

[sand willow]

So for MKII relic sword, is Heavy > Heavy > Light Heavy Repeating the best for hordes?

[grizzled aspen]

Yes.

[sand willow]

👍

wait

nvm

@rocky nacelle ur right

[craggy python]

h o tt o g o

[brave plover]

why my mods are not working now? I'm new using them so I don't know what I have to do after a game patch

[hard nexus]

i feel like i’ve heard stick a need through the eye before

[hard nexus]

you have to rerun the mod patch

though some mods are broken

[hard nexus]

#gameplay-help message

every update you have to rerun the mod patch

[brave plover]

I only use the one that tells the damage after the game

toggle_darktide_mods

[rocky nacelle]

you cant correct me on that game missy

[hard nexus]

scoreboard

[brave plover]

This is what I have to run again?

[rocky nacelle]

I fucking love that game

just look

[hard nexus]

dead space 2 remake

just a week away!

[rocky nacelle]

im coping

if dead space 2 has 1 fan

that fan is me

i can assure you that

[hard nexus]

dead space 2 remake

[rocky nacelle]

it would be so good

[hard nexus]

and then an entire thorough remake of dead space 3

[rocky nacelle]

no

[hard nexus]

make dead space 3 good

please

[rocky nacelle]

reboot

[hard nexus]

please

[rocky nacelle]

of dead space 3

you mean

[hard nexus]

yah that’s what i meant

[rocky nacelle]

scrap the entire story

honestly tho

[steel agate]

I played dead space on the Wii shit was awesome

[rocky nacelle]

we can try and keep the brother moons plot though

just fix everything else about dead space 3

[hard nexus]

idk killing a bretheren moon is badass

[grizzled aspen]

Getting ready for work now and I'll be at work all day. :(

[steel agate]

Got to see the perspective of a normal dude getting infected

[rocky nacelle]

thats what i mean

apparently dead space 4 we were gonna use a planet cracker to kill a brethren moon

or hunt them

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[hard nexus]

that would be so fucking peak

uuugh

damn you EA

[rocky nacelle]

if DS2 gets remade we're good

DS3 needs a reboot

and then the timeline is saved

[hard nexus]

yeah

agreed

[rocky nacelle]

but first

remake silent hill 1

and 3

[hard nexus]

troo

[rocky nacelle]

also bro

[hard nexus]

hrm

[rocky nacelle]

unstable power + warp rider + 100% peril

I just shot a moonlight greatsword beam

and killed 3 maulers

https://tenor.com/view/gojo-satoru-gif-949319236308169219

[hard nexus]

lmfao awesome

[hard nexus]

does it have cleave drop off?

like

cleave damage distribution

[rocky nacelle]

from what I saw im not gonna lie

no

[hard nexus]

pawesome

[rocky nacelle]

earlier in my first game testing it

it was fully charged

[rocky nacelle]

I shot it into a mixed horde

instant +60 combo

[hard nexus]

i stole ur BB build and swapped it to assail

[rocky nacelle]

LOL

[placid fiber]

Man I wish I wasn't burnt out on gaming rn, I wanna play the new darktide content :/

[hard nexus]

and i’m gonna use that when i get home from work

[rocky nacelle]

dont worry this is what im running now

[brave plover]

is not toggle_darktide_mods what I have to use? @hard nexus

[hard nexus]

you have to update your darktide mod framework and mod loader

[rocky nacelle]

15 stacks of DD with this sword is not real

it does SO much fucking damage

on weakspot hits

its insane

[hard nexus]

oh we made the exact same thing lmfao

[rocky nacelle]

yeah sadly Flayer does synergize with the beam

[hard nexus]

although i may swap to take anticipation

[rocky nacelle]

but assail is better

cause that way you can cover literally every matchup

[hard nexus]

unfortunate

yeah

[rocky nacelle]

ye

[hard nexus]

what ranged are u running with it

[rocky nacelle]

a double barrel

LOL

[hard nexus]

i haven’t decided what i want

lmfao of course

[placid fiber]

Yeah... even with every cast speed bonus you can put on bb it still is much worse than assail...

[light badge]

well that aint good lol

forgot to disable loadout monitor

[hard nexus]

how are the dodges on the FGS? is it worth to path for anticipation?

[rocky nacelle]

hey

[grizzled aspen]

Fatshark fed the AI director some janky shit, look at this.

[hard nexus]

i didn’t really pay attention

[rocky nacelle]

i never take anticipation cause I think its a waste

[grizzled aspen]

Four fucking flamers from the same door at the same time.

[rocky nacelle]

ima say it like this meow

[brave plover]

Are they updated on nexus?

[twilit basalt]

kebabed the fuck out of those flamers

[rocky nacelle]

us both being zealot mains that have used heavy weapons

FGS is fine

dodge wise

[hard nexus]

also i don’t like how the FGS preps a heavy stab in sprint

but then

does a slash

grrrr

[hard nexus]

troo

[hard nexus]

yeah

probably

[rocky nacelle]

dodges feel fine on it

feels just like they should

[hard nexus]

also the PA on it is stronger than normal FS PAs right?

[rocky nacelle]

if that makes sense

[placid fiber]

anticipation feels like a meme, more than a benefit, for a person who's done zealot for long enough

[hard nexus]

i’m not insane

[rocky nacelle]

id have to compare

also im in game brb

[hard nexus]

i think they are, they seem to be able to open bulwarks more consistently in my testing

[tiny gazelle]

DD?

[hard nexus]

though that testing was very brief

[placid fiber]

defy destiny

[hard nexus]

disrupt destiny

[hard nexus]

minor mistake

[placid fiber]

that

lol

[hard nexus]

dishonor upon ye

[sullen forge]

You guess so wrong

[placid fiber]

Hey, don't threaten me with a good time

[placid fiber]

[green steppe]

zealot fun

[placid fiber]

I've been home alone with my cat the last day and a half and I've done all of 2 things: lounge around... and watch youtube

[frosty herald]

ive mained thammer and evis exclusively

a weapon being slow does not make me worse

[grizzled aspen]

Force greatsword or power greatsword? Which way, western man?

my wife had to go to her mother's place to help her get to an appointment

[surreal shore]

wahts the =build on theese swords?

[placid fiber]

Yes

[sullen forge]

Relic Blade completely tramps damage wise

[rocky nacelle]

WHY DOES EVERYONE SUCK IN CIVI BUT ME

[sullen forge]

Which way Zealot chat

[rocky nacelle]

sorry

[sullen forge]

Chastising Relic Blade users or saying everyone else is bad

[placid fiber]

cuz they don't know it doesn't have ammo pick ups or they are randos

[rocky nacelle]

its a psyker and an ogryn

a EK psyker

[frosty herald]

everyone who says relic blade or force greatsword is bad are bad

[rocky nacelle]

man I shouldnt have dodged back left

fuck ass flamer ruined everything

[misty nova]

Relatable

[modern lintel]

he was too busy smiting to hear the burster behind him

[placid fiber]

If I wasn't fucking burnt out rn I would be using the new weapons... 😦

[rocky nacelle]

bro

CIVI is awesome with this shit

FGS melting a wave of carapace/ragers/maulers

😩

[grizzled aspen]

I'm gonna have to try the fgs before I make that call.

Relic blade does fuck though.

[modern lintel]

im gonna try one more w the zeal sword

[rocky nacelle]

we'll see about that

[grizzled aspen]

I prefer the mk2.

[rocky nacelle]

https://tenor.com/view/kenshiro-hokutonoken-raoh-fight-fist-gif-14027217

These two Doubled me in damage and melee

[frosty herald]

https://tenor.com/view/tapion-sparking-zero-dragon-ball-sword-dragonball-gif-14548417502331798514

[placid fiber]

The mk2 looked better vs armor overall from what I saw in the video cole did showing the attacks

[sullen forge]

and I was actively trying

It has more range

[undone thorn]

What are the best stats for relic power sword ?

[rocky nacelle]

its insane when a pack of carapace pulls up on me but im using DBarrel FGS so it's basically this

https://tenor.com/view/watchmen-gif-8794746

[frosty herald]

bro thinks hes trunks

[frosty herald]

you what

[placid fiber]

Sounds about right

[brave plover]

I love the tunic of that Psyker at the left

[frosty herald]

im still rocking the launch day minitorum chest

[placid fiber]

Those robes look like the ones I use on my psyker

[hard nexus]

LOL

[placid fiber]

Tho I use the hood that goes with the set

[flat iris]

does relic blade have decent crit chance?

[craggy python]

okay nevermind the sufferring was worth it

:D i pushed a chaos spawn off the map to finish that auric maelstrom

dopamine is crazy

[frosty herald]

inspect the finesse modifier

look at the heavy attack specifically

[nimble fiber]

[grizzled aspen]

Mk2 feels like a recombined mk3 evisc.

[hard nexus]

can u tell me what it says

[grizzled aspen]

Except that it has more heavy attacks and can actually kill things.

[hard nexus]

i’m off to work

[hard nexus]

:(

[misty nova]

Dump mobility
Everything else 80

[nimble fiber]

hi off to work

[rocky nacelle]

i swear

[grizzled aspen]

Sorry. I wish evisc was better.

[hard nexus]

me too

[rocky nacelle]

why go to civi as a soyker

[frosty herald]

Finesse
Increases the Weapon's Attack Speed and grants bonus to Critical Hits and Weak Spot Hits.

Critical and Weakspot Power: [0.95 - 1.25]
Critical and Weakspot Power: [1.25 - 1.75]
Attack Speed: [1 - 1.14]
Attack Speed: [1 - 1.14]

[rocky nacelle]

if you cant even fucking smite or spam staff right

its insane

[frosty herald]

MK2 RELIC BLADE

[hard nexus]

please god i have so many ideas how to fix the mk3 evis

[grizzled aspen]

Step 1, remove the fucking cleave damage cap.

[placid fiber]

Triple the everything

[rocky nacelle]

cole

these psykers are pissing me off

embarrassing

[placid fiber]

randos have a way of doing that

[rocky nacelle]

I hate that this is my 2nd main class

so many shitters on it

[modern lintel]

i keep unactivating it off vet psword muscle im gonna kms

[rocky nacelle]

(not like theres NOT shitters on zealot)

[hard nexus]

i was thinking, what if h1 rev could saw through multiple elites

if you latched onto a shotgunner, and killed it, the attack would keep going through onto the next enemies or next elite until it ran out of cleave or saw ticks

[placid fiber]

Randos make every class look like trash

[rocky nacelle]

but its so much worse on soyker

[grizzled aspen]

I had a fgs soyker manage to blow himself up with it.

Fucking, how, I don't know.

[placid fiber]

You're right, the rando psykers are generally worse

[grizzled aspen]

But he didn't have a staff and was using bubble.

[tiny gazelle]

the rando psyker using smite against everything: 😭

[rocky nacelle]

immediately get surrounded cause they're too busy smiting or spamming staff

bro its a civi

use your god damn melee and ears

i beg

[modern lintel]

that one that was up their w me when i got netter smited the entire time i was netter waited till i was downed to get me up

[rocky nacelle]

[brave plover]

[craggy python]

wait so, how do the cosmetics drop from havoc? do i get them from the weekly reward cache?

[rocky nacelle]

(not really I like the last map but our team sucked)

[placid fiber]

Yes the dump stat is damage on the flamer

[surreal shore]

guys

[placid fiber]

it increases all of about 1dps for 20% damage

[surreal shore]

wtf is this teh build on these swords?

[grizzled aspen]

That's why I'm doing relic blade first. I'm letting Para fuck about with fgs so he can give me the details later, and I've already done my experiments with the relic blade.

[surreal shore]

do they get power cylcler? XD

[rocky nacelle]

power sword and its repercussions

[flat iris]

i’m not on atm ;-;

[grizzled aspen]

No.

[drowsy steppe]

nah

[grizzled aspen]

We don't do charges here.

We do heat gauges.

[craggy python]

also, mark x relic blade feels fantastic, im running wrath rampage and it just tears through packs of ragers and shit

[modern lintel]

real and sad

[craggy python]

love it

[surreal shore]

well anyway

[placid fiber]

Don't say that too loud... fatshark might give the flamer one...

[grizzled aspen]

Mk2 better...

[surreal shore]

whats the bhiold

[tiny gazelle]

wtf my relic sword mastery bugged as hell

[surreal shore]

frog?

[rocky nacelle]

just tellin yall now

[drowsy steppe]

I have rampage + cranial grounding on the relic sword

[surreal shore]

@grizzled aspen what is it!

[rocky nacelle]

the better FSword is mk6

js

[tiny gazelle]

???????????

[grizzled aspen]

I'm running cranial and heat sink, but that won't fly in havoks.

[tiny gazelle]

blessing points where

[grizzled aspen]

Flak cara for perks.

Your sprint thrust with fotf and cara damage will 1shot a crusher when charged.

Very peak.

[nimble fiber]

[lunar fable]

Who up wreaking havoc

[heady swift]

Best melee for zealot?

[craggy python]

bro accept someone pls

[plush estuary]

define best

[heady swift]

Overall good

[grizzled aspen]

Yes that's a very loaded question.

I would say overall, now that it exists, mk2 relic blade.

[plush estuary]

every melee weapon on zealot is good

[misty ravine]

"The Power Sword and its consequences have been a disaster for Darktide."

[grizzled aspen]

Mk2 relic blade has horde clear, decent mobility, and an activation to shred mixed hordes or armor.

[heady swift]

Alrighty thank you

[grizzled aspen]

Just uh... be warned that it's a bit more difficult to use than advertised.

The movesets are complex on both models.

I can post a wall of text regarding chaining and whatnot if you'd like to read it.

[heady swift]

Yes please, I wanna learn more about melee combat

[grizzled aspen]

Mk10 Relic Blade
L1 - right to left sweep
L2 - left to right sweep
L3 - stab
H1 - slight right to left vertical cut
H2 - slight left to right vertical cut
H3 - right to left sweep
H4 - left to right sweep
PA - stab

PA chains to H2 or L2
Push chains to L2
L2 chains to L3 or H3
L1 chains to H2
H3 and H4 loop
H2 chains to L1
H3 chains to L3

Sprint thrust (heavy) chains into openers
Sprint sweep is considered L1

Ideal horde clear seems to be L1/Push, L2, H3, L2/H4
Ideal single target seems to be H1, H2, PA/L1, repeat

Mk2 Relic Blade
L1 - slight right to left vertical cut
L2 - slight left to right vertical cut
L3 - mostly diagonal right to left cut
L4 - slightly more angled L2
H1 - right to left sweep
H2 - left to right sweep
H3 - slight right to left uppercut
H4 - slight left to right vertical cut
PA - left to right sweep

PA chains to H1
L1 chains to H4
L2 chains to H3
H3 and H4 loop
H2 and L3 loop

Sprint attacks on this model chain to H2 or L2

Ideal horde clear seems to be (optional) PA, H1/sprint thrust, H2, L3, loop H2, L3
Ideal single target seems to be L1, H4, H3, loop H4, H3

Lays out all attacks so you know what notable chains are and their loops.

[heady swift]

🥴

[grizzled aspen]

I find mk2 to be easier to use because it's very similar in moveset to mk3 evisc.

[frozen trench]

Woah

[plush estuary]

go combat axe

[grizzled aspen]

I did say it was a wall of text.

[plush estuary]

light attack everything

[frozen trench]

Anyone demo this?

[grizzled aspen]

Oh yeah gunners move now.

Like while they shoot.

[frozen trench]

The pushback and removal on ranged attacks?

[steel agate]

So every gunner is now a mini reaper

Fun

[grizzled aspen]

Yes.

[frozen trench]

Is it life changing?

[heady swift]

Kinda

[frozen trench]

I hate those mechanics

[grizzled aspen]

Don't get the pushback twisted, you still get hit stunned by reapers and shotgunners.

[frozen trench]

Ah

[grizzled aspen]

The only thing they did was make it so other classes don't get entirely cucked because they don't have twbs.

Now go read the scab rager change and weep.

[frozen trench]

Headshots are still flak?

[tiny gazelle]

huh.

[frozen trench]

Or is the entire armour class carapace now?

[ornate bone]

Spent most of the match playing at 30 to 40 FPS because Fatshark

[frozen trench]

Also

[ornate bone]

Thanks Fatshark, the performance updates are always appreciated

[grizzled aspen]

Torso is carapace.

The rest is still flak.

[frozen trench]

Yeah

[heady swift]

🫠

[frozen trench]

Rest in peace double barrel

[grizzled aspen]

Functionally, it just means shitters can't kill them now because they won't aim for the face.

[frozen trench]

No more meat shot answer to scab ragers

[heady swift]

Bolt pistol go chug chug chug

[faint vapor]

idk if I like the carapace change

rip my shotgun

[frozen trench]

It’s so over

[faint vapor]

I mean they were a non-threat but now they're an ammo drain too lol

[ornate bone]

Imagine giving a turbobuff to one of the most annoying enemies in the entire game

[tiny gazelle]

wtf carapace rangers 😔

[misty ravine]

Can't wait for Scab Rager packs with Cranial Corruption

[ornate bone]

Yeah sure I'd love a pack of fast enemies with high damage that I am forced to headshot

[atomic fjord]

I like playing zealot

But man he SUCKS at low level

[faint vapor]

all the classes except Ogryn suck at low level

[burnt folio]

Can someone explain to a noob why pushing sometimes feels like a pool noodle and other times like im actually pushing them

[faint vapor]

obligatory watch your stam and only push the trash mobs

[atomic fjord]

It’s lowkey my fault for playing damnation at level 16

[atomic fjord]

Maybe push ragers

[burnt folio]

Ah, okie

[tribal yacht]

What perks and blessings do we want on the mk2 relic blade?

[faint vapor]

yeah Ogryn gets their toughness regen and bleed early on so they're still good

the others? oof

[atomic fjord]

I got SMACKED

like I just do no damage have no survivabikity

[heady swift]

I'm doing malice with a lvl 3 zealot rn still smacks

[atomic fjord]

Annoys me and I might just switch to psyker

[lean lark]

anything works for relic blade realistically

[atomic fjord]

Go do damnation pookie
