Yeah but you're terrible at explaining literally everything so... 🚬

olive surge
#

Question: Is it possible that horde enemies with the tentacle head modifier are immune or more resistant to stun from chorus?

stone fern
grizzled aspen
#

Enemies have to be close enough to the chorus user for them to be staggered.

olive surge
grizzled aspen
#

They definitely should not be able to hit you while you are holding chorus.

#

The only thing in the entire game that doesnt care about chorus are BoN.

olive surge
#

Was the first time that i saw this, maybe bugged

grizzled aspen
#

If you've got some clipping software or use steam replay, record it next time it happens.

#

Knowing fatshark, it could actually be a bug.

olive surge
#

Will do!

lean lark
#

its also desync issues time to time

olive surge
lean lark
#

ive had times where i held out chorus, two pulses hit a mutie but he grabs me anyways through chorus then gets stunned by it

olive surge
stone fern
#

only if they charge between pulses

lean lark
#

yeah muties more commonly interrupt chorus since they can grab you inbetween pulses

stone fern
#

if they get hit by a pulse they stop

lean lark
#

usually by just walking back when you hear a mutie it makes the odds of them charging at the perfect timing significantly less

olive surge
#

Alright thanks! I thought FS just introduced another hidden havoc modifier lol

potent gate
#

You should just dodge for safety too because you're going to end up proccing all your dodging debuffs which may help you when chorus ends

Really? Their excuse every time is "it's a tech, it was back in VT2"

Seems fatshark devs are actually keeping their eyes on matches.

frozen kernel
#

Interesting, maybe I shouldnt have left

#

Just reported and went "Fuck you and your macro" before leaving the slot to be filled by some other poor fucker running QP

#

Wasn't really enjoying watching him play the game while I just swung at air

clear mortar
#

i don't play psykers at all, but i couldn't care less if they would have that kind of macros

frozen kernel
#

Because his infinite ammo staff machinegun just annihilates everything before I can get to it

clear mortar
#

whatever keeps your game interesting

frozen kernel
#

I absolutely care about that shit because it affects other people

clear mortar
#

lol?

#

ever seen Outcast Engineer in VT2?

grizzled aspen
#

Outcast engineer was fucking hilarious.

frozen kernel
clear mortar
#

dude throws 1 bomb, shoots 1 bazooka charge and horde is gone

frozen kernel
#

Honestly wouldn't give a fuck if they were just running the mod that prevents them from shooting when at 100%, even though that's arguably just as bad

#

Because all it means is that I dont have to pick them up when they explode

#

But the quell cancel macro turns the surge staff into a crit machine gun

clear mortar
#

ok, i have a question

frozen kernel
#

That's not okay

clear mortar
#

if i start a mission on ~malice level

#

and just murder anyone far-far ahead of the team

frozen kernel
#

You should prolly be playing on a higher diff at that point

clear mortar
#

is it same type of "ruining the experience" or no?

#

yes i should and i do

frozen kernel
#

Yes

clear mortar
#

but still

frozen kernel
#

It's not the same thing though

#

One is using tools outside of the game

#

One is just playing like a shithead

clear mortar
#

the outcome is similar

frozen kernel
#

The latter is not a bannable offense

#

Irrelevant?

#

People can report for griefing, and Fartshart will do what they will with the information they have

clear mortar
#

would you care if i rob your house legally or illegally?

#

your house is still robbed

frozen kernel
#

But using a third party tool to do something unintented, which ALSO ruins the experience of other people

#

That's a double whammy

clear mortar
#

why

frozen kernel
#

You're comparing somebody using performance enhancing drugs to pouring dishsoap on the shower room floor

clear mortar
#

huh

#

ok, maybe

frozen kernel
#

One is objectively cheating

#

The other is trying to cause injury to your competition, which is also technically cheating

#

But you can hide behind some bullshit excuse

clear mortar
#

so it means you are absolutely ok if there is a dude who kills half of a map head of you?

grizzled aspen
#

There is only one way to really, really look at it, alright, and it's pretty simple.

#

Psykers use qq macros because theyre fucking dogshit and cant play.

clear mortar
#

(i am not justifing using macros, i am not touching psyker class at all)

frozen kernel
#

If you're hiding in malice, using cheats to kill everything so that people who genuinely have to play at that level cannot improve

#

You're a wiener

clear mortar
#

no, i meant

frozen kernel
#

If you're using cheats to kill shit at all

#

You're a wiener

#

It's a coop game

grizzled aspen
#

People that get banned for qq macros should be locked in sedition queues only with other people banned for the same reason.

clear mortar
grizzled aspen
#

Anyway.

frozen kernel
#

Let them vulture eachothers' dozen and a half specialist kills across the whole mission

clear mortar
#

it's alright then?

frozen kernel
frozen kernel
#

No

#

Have a nice day

grizzled aspen
#

The argument you have of "well I can just go into malice and kill everything" doesn't hold up, because you obviously shouldn't be playing there if you are capable of turning the game off for everybody else.

clear mortar
grizzled aspen
#

Legal? Yes. Ethical? No.

#

How about we stay in our own lobbies and ban soykers that are too shit to play the game correctly?

#

Instead of, yknow, griefing low skill players?

frozen kernel
#

"our own lobbies" requires shitters to have friends

grizzled aspen
#

I'm referring to like, if you are capable of doing auric maels without issue, you should stay doing that.

frozen kernel
#

That type of behavior often does not cause people to gravitate towards them, so they become our problem sadge

grizzled aspen
#

Not private matches.

frozen kernel
#

Yeah, definitely

clear mortar
#

i know, and i do precisely that (except the moments when i need to do some dumb penances, then i will have to ruin a pair of missions for newbies)

grizzled aspen
#

The issue with that argument is you twist a factual problem that can be solved just by banning the cheaters into an ethical problem of griefing noobs.

#

It should never have even been considered an option to grief noobs to avoid cheaters.

#

Cheaters should just be banned.

frozen kernel
#

It's also just...not a fair comparison

grizzled aspen
#

And you should relish being the one to report them.

#

Watching a soyker chain of fireballs get cut off because they get banned gives me a dopamine hit like you wouldn't believe.

peak cipher
#

what is the conversation

proud kraken
#

1 guy never connected and another left within 5 minutes

#

we did it tho

frozen kernel
#

If I'd known something was actually being done I'd have sat in that match to see how it played out after I reported him

#

I just woke up and I'm too tired to be watching a 30 minute cutscene lol

grizzled aspen
# peak cipher what is the conversation

QQ macro psykers are shitlords and deserve to get banned, rat ogre is twisting the problem into "how is that any different from me running malice and playing the entire mission for other people?"

#

Anyway, I can confirm the report system does work.

clear mortar
#

also when i was a newbie myself, i was totaly not against people curb-stomping whole map for me, because i knew the true gameplay will only start when i get all my talents

grizzled aspen
#

Please report qq psykers so they all get banned.

clear mortar
#

i can't even identify them

#

i don't look at other dudes

grizzled aspen
#

Oh you definitely can.

#

You will know if you queue with one.

clear mortar
#

i am too busy carrying the clowns

#

hmm

grizzled aspen
#

Because you will get to touch literally nothing.

peak cipher
#

qq psykers are so confusing to me

frozen kernel
#

Folks should be learning from levels 1-30 even if they only learn one personal tip on any given mission

peak cipher
#

you're already on the busted class dude

grizzled aspen
#

Let me see if I cant find a clip of one person I found using it.

peak cipher
#

why the fuck do you also need a macro

frozen kernel
#

"Hey I need to use my gun for those guys (ragers)"

#

They shouldnt be ramming their face into a wall while you carry them for 30 levels

Woo!

but it's not working

frozen kernel
#

There's a survey?

twin wagon
#
  • Out of 432 zealots, 224 ragequit matches (or simply crashed), putting them at about 56% quit rate.
  • Out of 136 vets, 60 quit, for about a 44% quit rate.
  • Out of 233 psykers, 116 psykers quit, for an almost even 50%.
  • Out of all 92 Ogryns I've found, 23 quit.
#

I'll be releasing the notepad I had to keep track

frozen kernel
#

Woah, vets are becoming endangered

twin wagon
#

Ye for some reason I expected more vets and felt I saw more on my games

frozen kernel
#

I remember around launch everyone wanted to play John Guardsman

twin wagon
#

I was expecting a lot more oggies too

frozen kernel
#

It was like every match was me (zealot), psyker, veteran, veteran

twin wagon
#

(These numbers are from patch 7 onward)

#

so it was since the downfall of veteran

clear mortar
#

because the best thing in this game is melee combat
guess what class is the best for melee combat?

clear mortar
#

bruh

subtle raptor
#

I started out on veteran too, went to psyker pretty quickly though. Which in hindsight was a bad order to do things

twin wagon
#

Numbers are a bit scuffed, because a lot of the rquitters were replaced by a new guy I had to note

grizzled aspen
twin wagon
#

Interestingly most quitters were replaced by a competent zealot/psyker

subtle raptor
grizzled aspen
#

Notice there is zero delay on his fireballs?

frozen kernel
#

I started zealot, then tried psyker (hated it), did a brief stint in veteran that I hated until 30 when I had a full build, and then finished Oggy last

twin wagon
#

I started Ogryn and have become a zealot now after trying to grind fire penance while it was bugged

frozen kernel
#

Gazer changed psyker for me, and WS changed vet because I could just play it like zealot

twin wagon

#

AND I SAID IT TWICE

grizzled aspen
#

TLDR the qq macro we are referring to makes you

unable to explode
have maximum warp nexus uptime because your peril is constantly at 100
fire m1 firebolts inhumanly fast

frozen kernel
#

That's when ya shut up or just say "damn dawg what is that? oh wow that sounds pretty shit"

grizzled aspen
#

This gets really nasty with one of the talents psyker has that makes targets take more warp damage on m1 attacks.

frozen kernel
#

We're human, we created languages to communicate

#

We can all suffer together lol

grizzled aspen
#

And when you pair in the surge blessing on the EK staff, which has a critical bonus stat...

#

Even nastier.

clear mortar
grizzled aspen
#

Yes, that's exactly what we've been saying.

frozen kernel
#

"a bit"

grizzled aspen
#

Look at how quickly the fireballs come out.

#

That is an inhuman fire rate.

#

You physically cannot do that by hand.

subtle raptor

# subtle raptor exploit?

There was an exploit where if you put the bonus XP thing on your curio and failed a mission, it would count for a ludicrous amount of XP or something

I had 2 pretty opposing vet runs last night. In one I ended up mostly having my revolver out shooting elites... and the other I was mostly using my melee... the latter was more fun to me. :/

Anyone else experiencing a crash when activating the Relic Blade? I'm not sure what causes it as I will go multiple missions without issue but have had multiple instances since it was added where I will activate it and it will crash out me + 1-2 members of the team.

There's a thing you can put in the launch settings on steam that helps

It's not a luamem issue. I have a mod tracking that. It seems to happen if two zealots activate at the same time. But not always.

Yeah this is something with the relic blade. I don't have the issue with other classes. Or with Zealot w/o the relic blade. Been happening to me and a buddy. Always when activating the blade during a fight. (tho it works just fine 99% of the time)

Thought I'd warm up on my Vet with a low int heresy run... lol even with poor aim I killed almost every fucking disabler

#

I missed so many fucking shots that run, tho... at least 50

fallen prawn
#

heresy teammates aren't exactly great at killing things

placid fiber
#

got hounded once, and was sure I was dead with how the team was... they got me before I was at half corruption at least lol

placid fiber
#

That's the 1 thing I'll say about the revolver... it's great at killing specials <.<

#

Otherwise the ammo is a bit low for me if I don't have the ammo aura

fallen prawn
#

revolver is absolutely fantastic at doing that, but plasma/bolter really starts shining in situations where you really need to shoot things

placid fiber
#

It's more I have poor aim x.x

#

like I said I missed at least 50 or so shots... against enemies at medium distance for most of those lol

fallen prawn
#

i am vermintide brained so i found a 6 shot 1 shot headshot gun ridiculous but this is a game where you have guns that can kill a swarm of elites

#

but quickly taking out specials with 1 headshot is always satisfying, plus its quick to pull out

placid fiber
#

This run, last night, reminded me why I like the ammo aura with the revolver... idk how I did such poor damage, but, I had the middle aura for easy pathing that run... and there were SO many fucking gunners... iirc this was normal int heresy

fallen prawn
#

middle aura is nice for the shout path but god it does nothing

placid fiber
placid fiber
#

and I think the shovel lol

fallen prawn
#

revolver's pretty good at taking out crushers, their heads are huge so you just shoot them

placid fiber
#

Yeah, this was more for before I had the revolver

#

and we didn't have the heavy sword either x.x

placid fiber
fallen prawn
#

survivalist just passively gets you ammo so you don't need to worry about wasting ammo on bodyshots

#

just never run out

placid fiber
fallen prawn
#

it does shine more on higher diffs
like i normally play with a vet friend while i run bolter zealot, i have to remember to magdump occasionally because of how much passive ammo you get

#

i go through a map without picking any ammo up and im full

modern lintel
#

it used to be even better if i recall was either more ammo or didnt have a timer one of the two

placid fiber
#

On even heresy it shines lol

astral hound
#

hound waves just insta maxed your ammo

placid fiber
#

This talent is also goated, but, you generally gotta either waste 2 to 3 points to get it or you have to take the movement speed aura...

#

it does give you a 10% melee damage node, tho, at least

#

Which mark of the Chainsword is better again? I forgot

placid fiber
#

the mk13g or w/e is the op one

Move speed aura is fun anyway be_yellowyipee

#

mk13 is the what, overhead heavy one?

placid fiber
placid fiber
#

the mk4 is the one with cleaving heavies, tho, so probably

#

I'm kinda tempted to test the smoke nades out with the ms aura for a run or 2

#

I've never used the smoke nades

#

I've seen people use them effectively, tho, at least

fallen prawn
#

they do some work if your team isn't very good/you're on low difficulty/both
tanner is right about them unfortunately

placid fiber
#

So they're for carrying malice/heresy randos?

fallen prawn
#

you can throw them to make gunners not shoot you, but 90% of the time, spamming frag grenades will just be better

placid fiber
#

I'm more of a fan of the krak nades, overall, tbh... more so for monsters than crushers

fallen prawn
#

especially if there's big density

placid fiber
#

frag nades path to the ammo regen aura faster, tho

fallen prawn
#

frags are fantastic for making space and melting thick hordes
kraks are a bit invalidated if your team can handle monsters (which is true most of the time, tons of good anti monster options exist)

#

and you can handle crushers with your normal weapons

placid fiber
#

and vet ewew comes in handy every now and then with the ammo regen aura

fallen prawn
#

even if you're not using a duelling sword, knife is fine too, axe is ok etc

placid fiber
placid fiber
#

Sure, but, what if I need it for the elite group 10 feet forwards?

fallen prawn
#

both talents on that row are bad iirc

fallen prawn
placid fiber
#

the other requires toughness to be broken

fallen prawn
#

i mean yeah sure

#

both talents do nothing, catch a breath maybe does a bit less nothingness

placid fiber
#

I've had that regen help a lot, on vet, tho. Sure it's disabled when enemies are within 8m, but, having regen while shooting gunners is nice lol

#

It's more of a quality of life, than something you rely on imo

How does losing stacks of fury work?

That never seemed quite clear to me.

heady quail

I don't think it does work KEKW_ogryn

#

What do ya'll put on your Flemtowers? Perks, Blessings, etc. Excuse me for asking, you don't have an Atheneum

lament blaze
#

From what i've experienced, it seems like getting just a kill before piety expires seems to refresh it.

Piety lasts way longer than I would have predicted from reading the talent

misty ravine
#

You don't even need the kill, an enemy just has to die within 25m

lament blaze
#

Fatshark's inability to communicate anything is starting to really get on my nerves lol

misty ravine
#

I mean, that part at least is stated plainly. At least the English one is, I've heard their issues are worse in other languages

lament blaze
#

Not the way piety refreshes

heady quail
#

My mod tells me it starts decaying after 8 seconds, so if you're constantly in combat you'll always have Piety active

plush estuary
#

piety refreshes from kills or if you take the modifier from crits. All stacks will be removed in 8 seconds if you dont do either

lament blaze
#

A straightforward reading of the ability would give the notion that. This would happen:

1: 25 enemies die within 25m of you
2: Piety starts
3: Lets say within 8 seconds, 24 enemies die within 25m
4: Piety ends

#

But I don't believe this occurs

outer gulch
#

as long as ur hacking at a horde piety will stay up

heady quail
#

It does not. The stacks decay over time when the 8 second duration end. Otherwise any kill will refresh the duration

lament blaze
#

Yeah. I'm lamenting the poor communication.

misty ravine
#

Once you hit 25, the duration refreshes if something else near you dies, but when it ends, the whole stack falls off. If you are below 25 they will fall off one by one

#

And yes that part is not listed

lament blaze
#

I feel like I don't even have the ability to theorycraft because I have no idea what abilities even do. It blows

Uh why tf does the Assault Chainaxe not have Brutal Momentum?

Just minorly increase their cleave values and fucking toss or completely rework BM and DB

dont think Deathblow is allowed to get away scott free

they should still be forced to perform better in their actual roles

The answer is not to slap on a blessing that is so mandatory axe basically has one blessing slot

heady quail

But then you don't have anything to kill Specialists, and you run into an ammo problem

fleet zealot
#

ehh, i think all weapons should be able to manage hordes to some extent

gray ice
#

Which is why the cleave should get buffed if bromentum goes

fleet zealot

tho things like knives and dueling swords with single target variants should def be at the bottom

omg power sword doesn't have 7 empowered swings and survivalist doesn't give infinite ammo, tho they buffed both of those with compensation at the same time or shortly after

gleaming furnace
#

Incorrect. I cite as evidence of the most recent weapon nerfs the clubs, the big shovels, the plasma (which was unnerfed and they tried to play it off as a bug despite the nerf being clearly described in the previous patch notes)

drowsy steppe
#

relic and power sword is equally good rn

fleet zealot
drowsy steppe

if pswords activation is changed to how relic works, it'll be a huge buff

Here’s your zealot guide bro

fleet zealot

zealot is prob the most versatile class able to use all the shared weapons and their class locked weapon, our talent tree is boring asf, there is a lot of things to test with our various buffs from talents, guide has to please a majority of people or else it will just be shamed and mocked

potent gate
#

That's fair

#

I just like having a reference point

fleet zealot
gray ice
#

I mean there's enough individual builds in pins and build thread that you could take it and just change some stuff around to your preference

fleet zealot
#

there is only like 6 real zealot builds before havoc came in, and 4 of them use throwing knives

gray ice
#

Our builds have been largely unchanged since p13 drop

fleet zealot
#

havoc just pushes everyone to chorus

gray ice
#

no tree reworks or anything

potent gate
#

I wonder if it's worth me running thy wrath be swift if I hardly take damage from melee - thus not getting interrupted (or if I am, not often at all) versus taking annoint in blood and purge the unclean. Think with the pox skin, annoint helps reach certain breakpoints?

fleet zealot
#

i'm praying zealot is the next tree rework

fleet zealot
#

otherwise it's completely optional

#

but no, annoint won't really help with pox skin

#

you should just be meleeing pox enemies

gray ice

dots help with pox skin tho, immo nades or infernus las weapon

You can inspect weapons to see actual crit numbers to see where the scalars really are

Yeah relic can do v.well with hordes but your using book so often, you don't get much time to use it. You get one full heat charge and then you're back on the book

drowsy steppe
