I've only had a couple bad eggs so far, but they often leave when downed
yea dont worry about whats the best just use whatever if it works and if you enjoy it
I guess the thing to ask yourself is if you want to improve your overall skill and sustainability
only havoc meta is when I'm forced to change yeah?
Nope
or as long as a player is skilled, anything flies?
not required but in general people are more accepting of a zealot that runs chorus and equips corruption cleanse aura when theres a blight spreads modifier
I see, I'll keep that in mind
yea as long as you can contribute in some way (clearing/keeping horde away from psyker, taking down gunners, taking down specialists, just kill a lot without dying idk)
that's my fave part so far. Hordes and I see a specialist peeking around 
I've used chorus a lot, and still do sometimes. I'd definitely suggest trying out Fury of the Faithful at some point, if nothing else to make yourself more rounded overall.
Are either of the chorus sidegrades worth allocating?
Megamindnoembed?.gif
huh weird, its just the gif selector from Disc 🤔
From what I remember they are ok but there’s just a lot better talents to take and not enough points to spare
If you really want them go ahead and take them
not really but its nice to have tdr if you have the spare point
Hmm yeah Zealot tree is so weird man
People were posting porn in here so embeds got removed, same reason for slow mode
ahhh,
Yea zealot chat got too freaky we got all our rights removed lmao
straight up nsfw shit got posted here and slurs
You're simultaneously point starved and forced to take nearly the exact same talents across builds
Seems like it'd be easier to punish the offenders than the entire chat 
correct but it was a buildup of many a previous offenses. and repeat offenses happened by the same actors
@distant yoke once you break it down there's about 8 good builds across all characters
Still seems like it'd be easier to just permaban those people 
Yeah but Zealot tree being literally the same across builds is kinda wild. The others at least have SOME variety, even Ogryn lmao
Nah that's every tree, ogryns actually the most narrow
bans can get appealed and done by Fatshark. To which previous offenders's bans have been appealed lmao
I totally understand why its easier to remove embeds and put this chat on slow mode instead. It actively discourage it from happening again
So unban the people who did the crime, but put martial law in place? Fatshart logic
Fweaky
I don’t silly
Holy shit I just made a meme in mematic but I can’t post it so just visualize it w me ok
So it’s the “society if” one, like the futuristic utopia one, and it says society if zealot chat stopped using gunner resist
So bait, cool
Yeah pretty much
Or it’s just a very obscure way of saying that when we eventually stop playing the game society will grow for the better
I stopped using gunner resist anyways
This is why I respect and value your opinion
Ive gotten good at dodging gunners and reapers I dont feel the need for it anymore
Wait y’all r still playing Darktide?
on occasion
I use it to intentionally play like a moron to kill other things slightly faster
Ok so before I dip out until the next shop reset I just wanted y’all to know that this German punk band I really like dropped a really good album. Y’all should totally listen to Dubai by Pisse, solid 8/10 album
Glotzkowsky and Tempel II are easily the best tracks


What is that sound effect lol
i have a mod that makes successful dodges play notes from the ultra instinct theme lol
That's tight lol. Lined up pretty comically in the clip
burster had no sound
In aurics yeah same, but in havoc I run triple gunner resist because fading light is the creation of a hurt man
Doesn’t help with a single dreg dude with his vector las, but it helps with the gunner hell when bubble is down
i run triple dockets because i accidentally spent it all trying to get a plasma gun godroll
Legend
I just pray no one has the mod that lets you look at my loadout and if they do I hope we all ready up before they can actually look at it
You can see weapons without mods
Can’t see curios though right
post your curio rn
No
Good thing I have inspect from social and inspect from party finder!
Let’s shoot for true survivor tomorrow
level 10 psyker on an auric qp 
Lumii blew himself up twice with warp unbound earlier, and I said "man thats a skill issue" right before karma decided I was, in fact, fucking around too much. (I blew myself up exactly the same way)
Karma haunts you in DT like an STD
The carry
The last 3 words of this sentence were totally unnecessary bro...
whatif zealot
missile
It’s always when you forget about it
forget what?
The rash from going over 100% peril 
I’ve got a clip back at home where we’re roasting Tau for getting pancake’d and then Frog just “oh fucking shit” KABOOM
I’ll be the first to admit when he had me try gunker for the first time I popped like 4 times in one match because I came from EK gazer with WU lmao
This is why I stopped running peril gen reduction with warp charges. It's just the right amount of inconsistency to make me fuck up when I'm tapping trauma against the ground to stagger stuff.
I can see how that can mess up the muscle memory
Knowing that I can do exactly x number of trauma taps before I have to quell just from muscle memory so my brain can focus on other things is quite important.
Redditors would be like “just stop casting at max peril 4head” but it’s more complex than that
I was used to the ~8 peril that each assail dart would give so when you made me not take ER on that gunker build, it really fucked with my muscle memory
Suddenly being able to throw ~3 darts turned into MAYBE 1-2 darts depending on if scriers was in its higher buildup stage
At this point I have an internal clock for scriers. Before 10s have passed, it's safe to throw darts. After 10s have passed, wait until you hit 100%, then wait another second to throw darts again.
W our dogshit randos in those JIIIV and CIVI games I felt pressured to try to deal with things quickly, so it led to frequently popping while I learned
average rusher squad (they always get wiped)
The console veteran hotmic will always rapidly drain the mental capacity
console hotmics are epic i love playing with someone and listining to his parents fighting in the background
Lumii keeps being like "hey you should help the random" when I'm playing scriers in aurics and my only reaction is "no."
I have revive speed on one of my pub curios for psyker lol
"Youre scoreboard farming!!!" no I'm not bro I'm using scriers and gliding across the floor like it's made of butter to kill everything.
sometimes you gotta flex by going for a crazy res as what is traditionally viewed as the squishy bitch class to show everyone else they’re playing like cowards ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Sometimes it’s not even a revive. It’s a fucking net that people still haven’t realized takes less than a second to remove
Ogryn just laying there in a puddle of fire like “this is fine”
He has 300hp, he can cook for a sec while I kill the flamer that's still trying to bbq him.
I think I'm going to buy the new snow helm for zealot and ogryn
I like rebreathers
I'm probably going to wind up buying the whole set for everybody. It will be the last batch of cosmetics I purchase for this game.
You sure about that
The zealot set is great for LARPing as a vet
While they’re def better than those ugly shorts we got a couple rotations back, I just don’t think they fit enough maps well enough to justify buying
vet helmet has a big ass head
Like it’s peak Gloriana drip, but if you do an hourglass mission with the snow pants I’m laughing at you
psykers jacket looks weird af because of how poofy it is
Actual militarum cosmetics for the two classes that literally never get flak armor outfits (Psyker and Zealot)
Imagine going down to Hab Dreyko wearing all white 
That sounds sick tho
Wish we had Helldivers-esque grime that would build up on us
Would be neat if they had extra time and resources. Edges looking slightly torched after taking fire damage, cloth bits becomes slightly tattered. Maybe if you’re missing a wound one of your lenses will crack on some helmets
Yh I am a bit torn about the psyker outfit. At first I thought it‘s amazing, but the more I see of it, the more I think it‘s just okayish
That would be amazing
The psyker helmet looks like it matches decently well with the tan Penance gear until you actually see it in a game
the helmet is great, the pants are very barebones and basic looking. If i had to do it again I probably wouldnt get the jacket
The full set is okay if you go force sword + staff, it definitely feels like you're wearing a snow suit when trying to run around
The helmet matches reasonably well with the blue psyker chest from the penances
To be fair, even they say we go through quarantine and decontamination after missions…being literally covered head to toe in Nurgle slime has a funny habit of causing your skin to fall off your bones so
But I don‘t think it fits well enough with it to justify spending money on it. I also find the head-bit of it (like the thing that‘s not the mask) a bit too big
I get it. Still wish we’d get minor cosmetic damage to our outfits tho
emperor kicked nurgle's ass so hard that one time with mortarion that nurgle goop only makes you slightly corrupted now 
I always used to joke that the Flesh Wound penance top had 3 candles, one for every fireteam member. I’d tell them “Better hope your candle doesn’t go out”
Remember when Flesh Wound tops would blind folks in Lights Out? 
Skiibidiiiu skiiibidiii hawk tuah hawk

Let's kill him, chat.
I fucking HATE gunners
charge into gunner
gunner doesn't engage in honourable melee combat and shreds me
Consider killing him.
Gunners are a fucking nuisance oml
Consider, joining chaos
Let's kill him, chat.
then you are not melee in hard enough
"Gunners buffed to make them feel more like an elite guard unit"
THEYRE NOT!!! THEYRE USING SUBSTANDARD HOT SHOT VOLLEYS!!!!
ok hear me out chat
the emperor
but he iz smol n cute
:3
Jokes aside the only time a dreg or scab gunner should continuously shoot you in the face when you are beating him to death is if you're doing havocs and they have a cranial parasite. Otherwise you can easily stagger them or just outright oneshot them.
The reapers
make it a modifier
since if that was the case
no game would be winnable
Yeah, reapers will just eat you alive. You can still oneshot them though.
I'm pretty sure FS just forgot what ogryns love
Reapers can be ran around, their turn speed is dog, just don't make sense of their aiming animation, keep running
Or he'll shoot you while aiming at someone else
oh shit
real @grizzled aspen??
BEATING people to death and the entire reason of ogryn proofing existing
Chat do I go to sleep for like 4 hours before work or do I stay up and game?
game
just do what Jesus tells you
Throw rocks at fatshark employees for buffing gunners
You got me, I'm convinced.
I’m home and I got apple juice

(I will only stay up because my shift is 4 hours and I have 2 coffees in my fridge that will absolutely keep me awake until I get off work)
brapple juice
It’s time to play Bloodborne for 5 hours while I wait for maintenance to carve into my bathtub
Do I know you? Am I supposed to?
they can shoot you if they're not facing you
Why you keep running
Bloodborne would be so great if it didn't have janky ass dodges.
You're telling me dodging away from Darkbeast Paarl is the wrong approach?
it doesn’t matter who I am
what matters is my plan
That's disturbing. I don't think I'm gonna like interacting with you.
Bloodborne pc waiting room 
I don’t care
you will like it
we’re going to be great friends
forever
literal purgatory, forever.
I do wonder how long it would take to finish the modded port, last news was that they got the chalice dungeons working
Sony actively shitting their britches because they want to sit on the IP and do fuck-all with it, despite modding being a cool scene for soulslike games and bloodborne being a sick setting.
I will add you on steam
and the constantly ask you to play games with me
until you turn on invisible mode
but by then it’ll be too late
can it be emulated?
I'm waiting for ds3 to go on sale for like 3 dollars like it usually does once a year and then I get to wait on archthrones.
Bloodborne is from the era of "no, silly. dodge into the meat cleaver twice the size of your torso"
doing backend admin and spotting random employee names
I forgot Percival was a name
I've been playing it with ShadPS4 having an absolute blast. I never had a PS4 so I never got to play, and didn't watch a lot of gameplay online at the time
My issue with this is bloodborne has random issues with some attacks you dodge into, some attacks you don't, while ds games have the ability to dodge into and away from all attacks.
Not to mention janky geometry and hitreg that soulslike games are notorious for.
Yeah they do the weird thing with unlocked rolls vs locked step dodges. Knowing which one to use and when is a challenge in and of itself
Exactly. Unironically, I'd prefer if they took the ds2 approach and gave you a stat to increase iframes on step dodges so you can just step dodge to victory.
I was humbled by a flame dog boss just to go online and see that everyone who has fought that dog unanimously agree "Fuck that boss"
Flame dog... flame dog... I'm drawing a blank on his name. He wasn't too much of an issue for me. Bolt paper + tricked axe.
Rolls actually have more iframes than your step dodges, but because of the longer recovery you wont usually get a punish off with one
The only fire boss I remember is Lawrence, and he's just a cleric beast reskin with a 2nd phase.
"Watchdog of the Old Lords" says online https://bloodborne.wiki.fextralife.com/Watchdog+of+the+Old+Lords
"The defiled version can have up to 28700+ health, making it have the highest hp out of any boss in BloodBorne, and the highest hp out of any boss in the SoulsBorne series." 
I feel like Midir with summons had more HP, I think Fextralife is just shit as usual
Oh it's watchdog, yeah he's not that hard.
You just have to be super patient with him and use a weapon that actually has range. My brother, who for some reason is sickeningly good at bloodborne, but sucks ass at ds games, no hits him with extended saw cleaver.
Not sure how much hp midir has, but remember that he gets dmg resistance on everything but his head which takes more dmg
He's also horribly weak to lightning, go figure. Dragonslayer axe go brrrr.
He's not hard, he's tedious. And depending on the conditions, he can one shot you with his charge if he chains it after certain other attacks
Its just that most people (me included lol) rarely hit his head so it just seemed like he has a lot
Abyss greatsword my beloved
Having to do a classic soulsbourne boss gate run over and over because he did the one move with a fucked hitbox that one shots you from full HP is ouchie on the sanity
Oh, absolutely. Tedious bosses are my favorite ones, actually. Cleared NK in ds3 on my 2nd try after seeing his moveset once. Quite an annoying boss only because you can't punish him because the rolling clouds will catch you.
I used to love it in Ds1 Oolacile pvp. The one handed spin was an amazing backstab wakeup
Eh getting oneshot / tanky bosses in souls games means fuck all after youve played nioh
I spent all 15 of my estus and had to use an ember to not die, plus regen, but I made it happen.
Nameless King was always so blown out of proportion imo
Those bosses always have the "just stagger him lol" gimmick to make them easier
That being said, look how many people got filtered by Pontiff lmao
Pontiff is a punk ass bitch.
Pontiff is a punk ass bitch. (1) You can literally kill his clone before it gets a chance to even dash away
If they made him parryable on more attacks he would be a fun boss, but he's just not with how he is. Aesthetically, he's sick as fuck.
DS3 was a series of filters for first time normies who didn't play Ds1, or suffer through Ds2
The lore walk towards you when he lights his swords up gave me shudders the first time I saw him. Then I got repeatedly spanked until I learned he and the dancer shared the same issue of not being in sync with the rest of the bosses.
I don't think anything will top fighting Gael at the end of time
And yet after a few attempts of learning how to parry him (and learning how to parry on dark souls as a whole)
I kicked his shit in easily
I killed Gael with Vordt's hammer lmao.
Looping his lunge is not what I meant by parrying him to death. I was meaning parrying him mid chain.
Thats always easier?
The Gwyn fight used to be my favorite until the Artorias fight, Dks2 DLC was all absolute ASS for bosses, then Ds3 came in with thematically the coldest fight ever
I don't even remember his attacks
I just remember parrying him constantly at any point I chose to
Genuinely, Pontiff would be a cool ass boss in elden ring, what with how they handle parrying a boss in that game.
Parrying the second or third hit in a chain is free
Anyway this is why lies of p is the best souls game
I wish Elden Ring wasnt watered down so hard that you can just find a broken weapon to L2 your way through the game with
There's also just so much...nothing on the map and so many of the dungeons (while really cool when you first experience them) arent worth ever revisiting unless you NEED something specific from there
I played the entire game (the second time, after I had like actually learned how to play souls games) and the first run of the dlc with the fucking spiked club
The whole time
Pontiff only has 3 attacks that are parryable. The lunge, and both of his fire sword attacks after he does a sidestep. One will be a sidestep > magic sword thrust > fire sword swing, the other will be a sidestep > fire sword swing.
Elden Ring really lacked on actual legacy dungeons and that sucks because those areas like Raya Lucaria and Volcano Manor were so cool
Lucario
Very interconnected, vertically dense, long levels as opposed to "go down into the stone ruins and fight the magic cat statue for the fourth time"
The 2nd time I played I found 2 side routes in lucaria I didn't even know existed on the first run
DS3 was the first time I went fucking "unga bunga" and used Yhorm's Machete for the rest of the game. Absolutely stupid hilarious weapon
It dealt so much damage that it was the only colossal weapon that didn't have a guaranteed R1 combo, but if anyone walked into a single boosted R1 they took like 800 damage and got poise clapped wolf ring be damned
Actually, I take back what I said. So Pontiff has two weapons, the Greatsword of Judgment (magic sword) and the Profaned Greatsword (fire sword). You can't parry the Greatsword of Judgment at all, only the Profane Greatsword.
Weird. It was sad that the GS of Judgement's WA was so easy to dodge in PVP because fuck was it cool. Same with the Twin Prince greatsword
I had to double check and confirm this, because I thought his lunge was the Greatsword of Judgment doing a thrust, but apparently it's an overhead swing from the Profane Greatsword.
Twin princes gs was so fucking good man, I loved shitting on people that liked to shield poke. I could poise through their attacks and do Lorian's uppercut to knock their shield out of the way, or I could do Lothric's poke with the leo ring (? counter damage ring) and oneshot people, at times.
If I had to say one of the prince's swords, alone, was better than the other, I'd have to say Lorian's sword is better, solely due to poise and the weapon art being a better version of stomp.
Also, aesthetically, the half melted ultra that it was looked so much cooler than Lothric's dinky ass straight sword.
Point blank trading people with the WA light was fucking hilarious yeah, people just got too smart or played the fucking "spacing meta" with a curved sword
The best part of fighting a curved sword user is watching them l1 you with twinblades and grinning with glee knowing you have the poise to eat that and hit them with your weapon art poke.
i am currently watching THE scene of the boys of the first season .
Also, demons scar users should be deleted with impunity. Broken ass weapon.
Mfw your build forces me to equip my flame stone plate ring because ds devs didn't fuckin balance that thing for shit:
But the legacy dungeons it does have are peak design and easily beat the design of the other fromsoft games for me
That's what I'm saying! I don't know if it's quite peak, but they're definitely the strongest areas in the game
is finesses dump stat for relic blade ???
No, absolutely not. Finesse affects headshot damage and attack speed, both of which are vitally important to your sword being functional. Dump mobility.
Which one again?
🥛
Oh that one I see now
:(
which of the relic blades is just the executioner sword
x
Which skins in the shop are for relic blade? heavy sword skins or?
None
and for double barreled?
Not sure if there are skins for it but none are in the shop rn
even the ones for gold? relic and double barreled?
For gold there are neither skins for relic blade and double-barelled
Finesse is never a dump stat
Maybe on the bully clubs because it's only attack speed there and you can always H1 block cancel the Brunt's Basher
But then you'd have to be playing Bully Club
Except the Bully Clubs also have the defences stat
I need to recheck that BC Finesse
Think it's 1-1.14 attack speed
yeah people already told me
For nearly every wpn in the game mobi is the dump, if not it's defences - only a tiny amount of wpns have different dumps, but these are exceptions (flamer, psyker wpns, etc)
go for carnival
try to do a Jump to the first det pack area
die
or colleteral for Bolt Pistol and so
Me omw to fucking get shredded by gunners
Call me cheese the way they shred me
Genuine question, are you running any gunner resists?
For the Ogryn event, what gun would be the best to shred the ogryn packs, can not decide if Flamer (carapace, unyielding) or Bolter is better
i kind of prefer the flamer just bcs it covers a lot more targets - but i am open for suggestions
I‘d go thammer+flamer. Thammer for crushers and flamer for bullwark packs (and potentially reapers hiding behind them)
For me its like 4 or 5 bolter pistol shots to put them down and for a lot of targets just use the relic sword in my opinion
well, on auric, the packs are big
i can single DPS anything with crit zealot, but its about the blobs of armor running at you
and 4-5 shots per body, is a lot if there is 12+ bodies
"what weapon is good for..."
fucking ds4, dude
again, i talk about the blobs, the mass of armor, not single targets
i can outdance them all with the DS, thats not what i need to do though to help the team
use choir and while they are stunned, take them one by one
does flamer has a blessing against armor? i dont remember
either works, but flamer would work better if you had a melee w/ uncanny and bolter kinda doesnt care
it does
oh, wrong answer, the flamer got penetrating flames, so it makes sense
will stick to flamer, it works well enough
penetration flame is a meme
go full strengh flame build
Poppin flamethrower on hunting grounds is satisfying
i will try the pen flames, i was using blaze away and overpressure before, will just see what works better in the modifier
Do you see why this is a problem?
"Gunners are shredding me!"
looks inside
no gunner resist
Sounds about right
Penetrating flame does feel really good against giant Ogryn waves, was using it last night
Tbh I run no resist at all besides corruption
Mauler behind wall jumpscare
Just like the crusher finishing its overhead right when you turn the corner
"Oh boy! I love cutting through these bruisers!"
Mauler appearing from the side wall that I am very close to:
What role does the double barrel fill?
"Oh boy! A singular crusher!"
30 fucking gunners spawning from the horde trigger:
What stat do we dump on the Relic Blade?
mobility
Me when the reaper doesn't beat me to death with his twin linked stubber (not lore accurate)
ok ty
close to mid ranged elite/special killer... it might get horde clear with manstopper + scattershot, but, idk for sure on that one
doomguy cosplay
also yes it has funny cleave with those blessings, i messed around with it yesterday and it was cleaving rager packs easily
Neat, I’ll have to try it later
This machine deletes dreg ragers.
Like, all of them. At the same time.
Manstopper. It stops the men.
💯
Been using the tactical axe with the flamer recently and it’s been a pretty fun combo, the flamer actually does decent sustained dps to bosses and on the auric missions with weaker monstrosities the burn is really good
Close range powerhouse
Dude, just run gunner resist on your curios and they'll stop eating you alive. It works on reapers too.
Is the heavy sword worth using at all? I haven’t even touched it because I’ve been using other weapons
The heavy sword is great, you just want a gun for armor with it
They are pretty good against hordes and small elites, yeah
Yeah. Deathblow lets you cleave like 7 ragers in one go. The only thing it struggles with is carapace but you can aim for bodyshots on maulers and use chastise on crushers.
Sounds like a boltgun pairup
boltgun, revolver, penetrating flames flamer
Pen flames is super overrated.
Yeah it is, it's just an option ^
What blessing are recommended on the assault chainsword? I think I’m using wrath and the bleed on special attacks rn
4 Shred + Rampage/Sweep
13g Shred + Wrath
^
Mk13 is op with martyrdom btw. Light spam turns you into a literal blender.
ferrets posted in psyker caht
don't play around with blled on special it's not worth it,
Bloodletter would be a good blessing if crits did bleed for normal attacks.
Add thunderous to Chainsword so Letterous be a thing
Unless bleed stopped applying Thunderous
I dont think DOTs apply thunderous. That would actually make thunderous useful on ogryn weapons.
🤷 I don't have Debuff Indicators so I can't test interactions and stuff like
i think they used to long time ago but rn they dont
it would be insanely op, rn the only use for those is shout cause it applies it
but thunderous loses to skullcrusher on ogryn so.... yeah
Hsword 7 combos: #zealot-class message
Build I use for it:
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9d80d899-dba2-4cad-af4f-fe11b5e9eacd/hsword-7-bolter
it would be a third option for Bully Clubs
The shovels are aight
The pickaxe has better options
Paul
Hsword 9 is more popular, check cica's builds for that: #zealot-class message
Eh the Paul has Opportunist so Thunderous will not be needed that much
Wait a minute
Paul doesn't have thunderous, that's Thunderstrike
Never mind then
FS buff Thunderstrike plz 
what're people doing for talent tree/perks on the relic swords
Detailed info on pinneds
Tldr Martyrdom or IJ, Cranial+Rampage/Heatsink

im using piety stelwart works good for me
ez to hit heads and keep refreshing fotf
fellow blazing piety fan
we be blazing the piety 
why arent you a scab rager unepic
scab ragers are idiot cowards that have to hide behind armor and are fat and slow and dumb
yo zealot gang
hi carc
iirc from what someone showed in a video they have a faster combo attack than dreg ragers
hola! anyone know what curio stats we get?
toughness toughness stamina I think
uhhhh
I don't actually recall the curio perks I run other than like 1-2 gunner resistances
gotcha thanks!
It's usually health, toughness, gunner resistance
Extra CDR is often not needed (save a few few cases)
Revive ally (even more niche)
Cant decide if I love or hate martyrdom
I'm biased so I say you love it
how do you run martydom
im trying it out today to see what's the fuss about with relic
The rare veteran running LNOB with 3 revive speeds instantly getting people up lmao
martyrdom trades cdr access and max toughness for the highest potential attack speed+damage increase and a high amount of tdr
for all 3 curios? o:
how about the stamina stuff
Ferret poster
my energy is low
I request upon you for ferret pick
prease
@fleet zealot
Martyrdom doesn't need to give up CDR, for most weapons I'd still take Invocation of Death over pretty much anything else that cost 3 points
Iirc two gunner resistance is good so that third curio could have something else
sooo I run
Toughness x2 / Stamina x1
Perks: Gunner Res x2 / Sniper Res x1
The rest into Health/Toughness ?
Is Relib Blade the most used weapon?
I think its the Dueling Sword and Combat Blade (Knife)
As far as I know there are no published stats on pick rates. Anecdotally I see more Dueling Swords on Zealot than anything else, because they're overpowered.
Relic Blade is really common as well, because they're strong, fun, cool, and still relatively new.
yeah i figured that much but i was curious on specific builds
im gonna roll with the one reginald posted in his relic blade vid for funnies 
As I am hitting my 60 hr mark relic blade was my favorite weapon til i settled into my role as an elite/specialist kill role which is when the dueling sword took over. It all depends on the role you're trying to take in the group. Relic sword is a really good all rounder.
Just my experience so far.
Got tired of my teams not being able to focus on priority kill targets so I do it myself.
what is bro typing out
A thesis disproving the theories of gravity.
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/build-editor?id=9e19f5ef-1447-4a9c-88e1-ad9c7ceb14e7
This is what I've been using in Aurics, has worked really well. Ranged weapon is pretty much whatever you want.
I've been using Wrath even outside Havoc lately, mainly because I can't be fucked to switch it back and forth from Rampage, but it does feel good.
You get your FotF back very fast with light spam, but if you want your heat to last longer while cleaving a horde, you can mix heavy attacks in, or even spam heavies—Relic Blade AFAIK generates a fixed amount of heat per swing, regardless of number of targets hit, plus a fixed amount per second just for being activated. The heavies will also help stagger Elites in the crowd, but be aware that this build doesn't have TWBS and you may get poked out of a heavy attack if Punishment isn't fully stacked.
The anakin skywalker build okay.
ill give this one a try thanks 
3 wounds spicy
playing at 1hp is for champions
Stand in the first fire barrel you see to Martyrmaxx and Anakinmaxx ||jk don't be that Zealot||
If you're gonna go Martyrdom, might as well go for The Full Marty
You stole her from me!! Stands in fire

why does relic have so many blessings that depend on you blocking when literally no one blocks unless they're out of dodges 
because most of the blessings arent worth it
yeah the blessings on it just feel very?????? outside wrath, rampage andd carnial i dont see how any of these are good
exactly
does the powering on block count?
yes but still mid
that's probably why they did it i guess
like i can only see the block one being useful if im fighting bosses cause i do block certain boss attacks but its so situational and falls flat against the good ones
@carmine falcon same reason there's tons of backwards blessings for all of the weapons. Fatshark bad at design and balancing. 
filler spots cause they have to add a fixed number of blessings 
give me the funny ds blessings haha
Ngl. Psycker great sword feels better than zealot great sword in melee. Idk how to feel about this
Moveset wise. Swings feel better
Anyone else not like carbonated drinks?
CMV: Crusher is a better Thunderhammer atm apart from boss performance
Thammer gets more 1 shots on ogryns, that's probably the only benefit right now
just discovered the joy of the slaughterer/thrust combo on it
I need to try the crusher at some point
slaughterer/skullcrusher = its gaming time
crusher takes too long to kill armored things
Is there a skin where it's just a slab of concrete on a steel pole?
switch to your gun and kill them
nuh uh

got the reciept ready and everything damn
all im saying, is if you hit someone with a helmet, with a fucking 20 pound hammer
I know this isnt exactly realism, but blunt objects against armor is good irl
If anything, something like duelling sword stabbing a helmet is more unrealistic, good luck getting through plate armor without finding an opening
my brother in christ this game isnt going for realism in any aspect 
crusher "objectively" kills carpace decently fast
Not fast enough when you compare it to shit thats broken, and shouldnt really be able to annihilate plate armor
then dont compare it to the broken needle 
by that logic any weapon that doesnt kill as fast as ds is shit
thing that’s blatantly overpowered is better than thing that is not blatantly over powered
up next, fork found in kitchen!
Sure but even vs knife its way underpowered, which yes is also a bit overpowered. But it should still do more. You have to invest so much with crusher to get good results, you're basically stuck with meta
how are you stuck with meta??
If you want really good results you pretty much have to run charge, which is meta
Meta this meta that, have you tried using tac axe, flamingo
Yes, tac axe is another weapon that could use some slight buffing
also vs knife, crusher has good horde clear
it’s meant to be a generalist weapon, it won’t out perform a thunder hammer in single target, and it won’t out perform a heavy sword in horde clear, but it does both pretty well
invest in what exactly
i made it work with the the straightforward crit build posted here that i use for every other big zealot weapon literally
Im not saying go crazy and make it 1shot crushers on heavy, but you shouldnt need to go mostly meta to make it really good
technically meta is stealth, or chorus on havoc
Bruh, exactly, crit with chrage is the meta build, or momentum
well i dont use charge and crit cause meta i use both because FUN
so im covered on that aspect
I guess but i'm only talking auric, havoc has its own meta thats pretty impossible to get out of
2 of 3 options and you’re saying it’s meta? do you actually know what you’re talking about, or are you just being contrarian for the fun of it
@copper hawk @median steeple check this shit out
Here we go again
no it’s not lmfao, i’ve run mk3 evis chastise in h40 and carried
Read the part after mk3 evis
notice how earlier i said chorus is meta in havoc?
Chrous can be meta if toughness is a concern, but if your team composition is psykers and a vet, you don't really need to worry about it a lot of times
also aurics you can run literally anything you want, there’s a meta, sure, but it’s not what you’re required to run
Yes technically, you can run grey weapons and take 17 hits to kill one crusher indeed. But i'm talking about relatively quickly, not exactly as broken as DS or knife
TLDR, crusher is really good, if you feel like you’re forced to run “meta” with it, then skill issue, all 3 keystones work great on crusher
literally look at the clip that i linked earlier, and tell me that’s not “fast enough”, killing a crusher in 4 attacks, realistically 3 because i didn’t have max IJ stacks in the clip
cant wait for knife and ds to get gutted so we dont get this kinda discussions anymore 🙏 fatfish please
They probably wont
if they'd buff some of the other human weapons it wouldn't be that big of a deal. DS and knife are still going to get used, but people would expand out more if a lot of the human weapons weren't booty.
I feel like bistol is needed to make it work on piety but yes I agree. (quick puncture for scourge value)
love me crusha
love me embrah
dont care for metah
simple as
very few human weapons are definitively bad, and those are the mk3 evis and the dclaw mk1
i put lethal prox on it with crusher 
you don’t need bolt pistol at
that got patched a while ago unfortunately @carmine falcon
Not saying some of them are really bad, but just need a bit of tuning. Tac axes for example
tac axes are strong already, they do not need buffs
Idk about that one
They are knife level but doesnt have uncanny
ehhh
damn ive been running on placebo all this time
the abolute state
Seems stretching it, even cole agrees that they need a buff to some extent
i mean hey if they're gonna buff then hell yeah 
i'm not saying make everything stupidly busted, but quite a few things could use some tuning at the minimum
I also understand if you make weapons really good offmeta that they're going to be stupid onmeta. Which is just a problem with the trees overall
Actually Cole made a very strong point about them in vet chat the other day, they are hard carried by their talents. If you run taxe on vet without reciprocity or desperado, for example, you're gimping yourself.
Lmfao
i mean running a high finesse weapon benefits from crits and finesse? that’s kind of expected
i had a dream i was in shoplifting in a thrift store with tony soprano last night
Did anyone get the jeweled scepter crusher skin in the shop?
I have the black version of it
LMFAOOO troo !!!!!!
Idk I have a hard time explaining it. I feel like all weapons should be good without needing to build into them, and building into them should make them very strong. Taxe, without building into it, is mid, at best, but building into it makes it an above average weapon.
Does it sparkle?
Does it yump the loat ?
does it glorple?
I remember thinking exactly this about this same person's opinions on hsword a while ago
Hiiii cica
Shock maul with rampage and uncanny is meta rn fuck you dumbasses talking bout
Yall ain't even know the meta 😔
okay weird question.
was doing auric damns earlier, queued up with a stealth zealot on QP. Start of the match he just beelines to the end of the map, I noticed this after realising were only 3 fighting a monstrosity and an ogryn pack.
What kinda tactic are they doin? Next map transition I call them out and say he wasn't helping and they replied too many enemies... I'm not sure what the guy wants. There was that one time all 3 of us went down and saw he had actual skill to zoom and kill priority targets, but what is even the point...
speedrunning, just report and block
"too many enemies...."
Too many enemies on my high diff match 😡
Dreams have meaning:
speedrunning....? cant they solo that and not drag us with them?
yes
"Therss too many enemies on auric damn"
My brother in christ you queued up for it
Classic
Speedrunning is usualy reserved for private games you occasionally have the pub speedrun shitter
I like checking boxes and stuff
Even worse is someone doing speedrun tricks and skips in pubs intentionally
Hai cica
oof :v well thats one blocked anyhow
my favorite part about darktide is how you can only block people if they're online
you basically need to block them while you're in the game with them or else they might escape your block attempt
They can give you the slip?
I find it exceedingly rare to even run into the same person twice in a month personally. There is only one person I ever blocked for being repeatedly 'bad' and it was back during the very early days post-launch when the playerbase was only Steam players and we would maybe peak at 3K. Would run into them every other day or at most twice in one day.
And frankly it was less that they sucked at the game and more that they were toxic as shit in chat whenever they were down, which was incredibly frequent.
Everyone else has to say a racial slur to earn a block.
I've been seeing repeat names in Havocs because the playerbase for them is so small. Some aren't even named Haveloch
Yeah but Havocs are already pre-filtered as it were. It'd be pretty weird to need to block players in Havoc when you could already just ... not accept their invite request. That's me anyway.
i run into the same people pretty frequently tbh
i once got rejected by a guy for havoc (not really high level) and i realized i had blocked him. he most likely remembered me and was like "hell nah"
my block list is 2% racism/talking trash in chat and everything else is purposefully fucking over other players
had one ogryn that refused to let anyone else have ammo i was at orange and some else was at red and he dead ass walked to two ammo things i pinged and picked them up at white WHITE. 🚬 first person i ever kicked
he was hungry
i pinged two ammo things and he dead ass trudged over and took them he prolly got 1 ammo out of the second one 
ogryn roleplaying went too far, he didnt know how to count and it ruined it for everyone
Yeah im finding darktide has all the same playerbase issues vermintide had. So my zealot is purely for specialists no one focuses on. x.x
I swear 5 trappers could be roaming around and they'd still be horde clearing.
target priority is probably something that every game's playerbase has an issue with(as far as the randos go)
disablers are easier to see in darktide for me
i played vt2 for like 3 hours and spent most of them being hooked by a rat
I should have learned from my days of raid leading heroics in wow, guess my hope for humanity is still going a bit too strong
at least they're just incompetent and not evil, i suppose
Classic vermintide 2 gameplay loop
🪝 🐀
On the flip side flame staff psyker has been my go to for straight up heretic slaughter.
Damn
Melta sucks
Melta?
Shin megami
I mean
Space Marines 2
Probably
Have you considered maybe possibly dodging the hook rat?
💯
Hard to dodge if you can't see them and they make minimal sound
It's even worse if you have latency because you aren't the host
Spam tagger 2
i cant even see disblers in vt2 everything is so much harder to see
Im saying this from a place of love. It’s not that hard to see them
Sigmar bless this ravaged body
blighstormers also can spawn way far away
eh maybe idk dont have much time in vt2
Play chaos wastes
Yeah, clad, I can drag your ass through a chaos wastes run lol
i have zero dlc for vt2
It's not a dlc lol
my sienna is like level 5
And?
🚬 if levelling on dt is bad its worse in vt2
Play MY KING Saltzpyre or MY GOAT BARDIN
Leveling in vt2 isn't that bad unless you're trying to run champion or legend on a level 10 character lol
Vt2 is way easier atm and besides I still think there is double exp weekends
The flamethrower
The new itemization on vt2 makes getting material ect a lot easier and faster
A
Why do people using 🚬 always have the most dogshit takes ever witnessed lmao I've never seen 🚬 followed by a good take
ironic...........

What if it isn't bait, huh? What if it truly is unfiltered dogshit opinion? What will you do?
🚬
Noob. 🚬

i will not rest until the entire discord is nothing but 🫡 🚬 and 😭
Sounds like a skill issue
the horus heresy is shit 🚬
Go to send a meme to my pride and joy zealot chat, remember mods are evil, get sadge..
||We had it coming tbh||


Open reddit
See claims that mk15 evis has significantly better horde clear than mk2 because mk2's heavy 1 is bad
Close reddit
(they are right)
hold lmb is easier than h/l spam
Evis 3 is shit right now
Better off with the Chainsword Xiiig
right now
fatshark should make every weapon do identical damage so theres no misbalance in the game
ahem
Lemme correct that
Evis3 has always been shit
Yeah that's better

Oh and I know your eviscerators senses are tingling Meow
It's not personal, you know that
@hard nexus mk3 slander
meow knows evis 3 is shit, but wants it to be better
Ah yes, the Payday 2 melee balance approach 
mk3 is bad lmfao
i wonder what the worst weapon zealot has is
smaul doesn't feel that bad
achlys combat axe
Tactical axe 
leave
It's mk1 dclaw and it's not even close.
Mk1 Dclaw?
One of the Taxe marks is bad isn't it?
The point is not whether it's shit
The point is that old mate is saying the mk15 is significantly better at horde clear, thinks the target caps are 3, and that mk2 h1 has the cap
Frog has a point, the mk1 dclaw is ass

Mk1 dclaw literally doesn't have single target attacks.
l3, but, yeah it sucks ass(just ilke it did in vt2)
it has a minimum damage of like 33, and falls off extremely fast, so it doesn’t have the damage cap but it may as well
mk15 on the other hand can kill 6 enemies per swing on revved L1 spam with bloodthirsty
The cleave damage distribution on the Evis3 H1 is horrendous
like so
the mk3 eviscerator still vastly outclasses the mk1 dclaw
kid named zealot tutorial shovel
still better than the mk1 dclaw
Lumii can I beat you with hammers pretty please??? :3
(You are making me annoyed that we don't have shovel to abuse on martyr builds)
evi3 has a better moveset than evi15 it feels like it has actual weight to it meanwhile evi15 feels like a pool noodle
the uhhhh H2? on evi the heavy sideways slice feels amazing
i will pulverize you
Cole about to open a can of whoop ass on higui
Not with a tactical axe you won't 🏃➡️
special spam
liar
you've said this too many times now
Kill her
"Computer, give Zealot access to the Force Greatsword. Recolor the visual effects gold and name it the 'Miracle Sword'. Make the special attack gain triple the normal damage bonus from Martyrdom. Lock Holodeck doors and disengage safety protocols."
ahem
It's Cogitator 🤓
oh yeah i will
jarvis, link my solo boss maelstrom on chasm station with the taxe
You're a Cogitator
Friday, send them a message telling that I won't be impressed but I do respect the grind
Jarvis: puts up a video of Cole swinging a pool noodle around
Hes just gonna knife movetech away from you so you can't catch him.
More like, "Computer, give zealout access to shovels. Make martyrs purpose not shit. Queue CIVI auric maelstrom. Disengage safety protocols."
honestly the contenders for worst melee weapon on zealot can only be mk4 taxe and mk1 dclaw
the mk4 taxe has armor damage access...
jarvis link cole attempting to purg staff the green burster
It's still mk1 dclaw, and it's not even close.
"Servoskull, play Disposal Unit bass boosted 1 hour mix, maximum volume"
and the fact that mk4 taxe has only sweeping lights with brutal momentum and also better finesse scaling with zealot talents
mk1 is definitely much worse
But what about them parries
See people were shitting on me earlier for suggesting taxes need a slight buff 
it also HAS single target, granted its shit single target (heavy overhead profiles match sweep heavy profiles of the other marks)
"Muh rending parry" brother just oneshot the enemy with a duellist taxe chastise headshot.
^
every single push attack and heavy attack on taxes are identical numerically
damage, cleave, cleave damage, everything that isnt angle
achlys axe is also on the list of dawgshit weapons for sure
It's definitely on there but dclaw still takes the cake for shittiest shit.
Rending parry when rending heavy comes in
im currently trying to push for tune ups on both dclaw and taxe
whether they do so is anyones guess but still
do not buff taxes shit is expensive enough as is
If we don't get an adm buff on dclaw I'm going to kiss you on the mouth.
now im being threatened
Be afraid.
like if achlys axe has a bit of cleave on its heavy, or even just on its sprinting diagonal heavy, it might be worth something or at least be a bit interesting
I mean
Still an axe so it'll end up having a better time killing stuff
(Ignore the 0.001 cleave on most of the moveset)
GEEEEEEZ finally finished auric damnation rolling steel
bromentum exists 
(Mods, for legal purposes, this is a joke.)
we should get more marks for standalone weapons like bolter flamer crusher etc
i feel like the taxes are genuinely better cause of higher attack speed. achlys moveset you cant really take advantage of BM at all unless youre doing deranged things with the camera. so its slow and the moves are bad
Fatshart higher-ups plzzz 😭
we should get meltagun and longlas 😔
Gimme a flamer that just lobs giant globs of fire.
gel based flamer with sticky fire
Napalm..
If they'd just do some slight buffing to a handful of human weapons, they'd get used so much more. Same goes for ogryns weapons
(before you ask yes gel based prometium exists in 40k)
Me whipping out a meltagun and instantly vaporizing four crushers: (I got a crit)
Close enough
Welcome back Drillers Lingering Flames
Give Braced Autoguns giant drum mags (or just change the model to be belt fed) and make them proper LMG analogues. Trading ammo for suppressed enemies is well and good but the current exchange rate is not worth
Me vaporizing plague ogryn head with a single shot from longlas (i hit him in the ankle)
Should be given to Zealot instead
Chat, today we eat Gale.
They should just do a baseline like they did with hammer. X weapon should be able to kill Y enemy in so many hits/do so much damage.
You can have my share of cartilage
Its funny how ogryn got the first deticated sniper weapon with heavy stubber
sorry the best i can offer is a handful of gale
Melta Gun added to game; inexplicably made a Finesse Weapon—traitor ogryns on suicide watch
An actual human sniper rifle with a proper scope would be so nice
Sharpshooter Heavy Machine Gun 
Everyone's been so busy talking about DS, a lot of people forgot how broken the revolver is, and how it has barely anything to compete with it.
I haven't run revolver in ages.
I like it as a spin on just a generic lmg heavy stubber
Zealout has no use for revolver, you have tknives for a reason. Psyker doesn't either, two of your blitzes are made for specialist hunting and your third can just knock them down so you can instakill them in melee. Vet has better options than revolver.
its competing with the bolt pistol, which has seen a spike in usage due to the fact it has more ammo capacity and thus is better for dealing with both ranged elites and specialists
revolver is great at that too but is better against armor, but most people are running duelling sword or relic blade that they dont need that strong armor damage anyway, so many people have been using revolver much less and thust talking about it much less
Throwing knives dont cleave multiple ragers and gunners
Who's gonna tell him about manstopper tknives?
Revolver also falls off a cliff in Havoc as it stops hitting breakpoints
that too
Revolver isn't as good in havoc just based on ammo economy, that's another issue entirely
Manstopper knives are a meme and not used seriously
I find them to be completely serious. It's hilarious and effective to get a crit tknife take out 6 ragers before they can touch anybody.
Carlos Hathcock would be proud
Can't believe Revolver is becoming a "hidden" gem after all this time
Bolt pistol definitely gets used more which is great, but we still have plenty of guns that don't get picked because of the few that pull way ahead.
its more that its niche is being already covered up by new things/existing things working in tandem
The meta evolves overtime so people would rather use havoc 40 stuff rather than stuff that dominates damnation
Yeah, more like powercreep is making it less and less favorable lol
Also i just realized ogryn stole zealot's toughness damage resistance on bleed as a talent lmao
trolled
How would chat Make Autopistol Great Again
Anything @misty ravine
Give it puncture
power creep is a part of it in regards to duelling sword stealing its armor role, but not the only factor
Crank the fuck out of damage vs infested, unarmored, and maniac.
if you wanna go down that route, fletchette would be more balanced
still stupid broken but not as stupid broken
why do you always spell zealot zealout
Because the adjective is spelled "zealous."
flechette yes (make autopistol a crit centered weapon)
Rename it to Hollow Point and then it wont look weird on the AP gun lmao
@spare talon how many gunner res do you run again?
because frog doesnt realize that there can be nuance to the english language
like gray and grey
Yo mama.
it already has cavalcade despite abysmal crit damage lmao
Cole dont ask me about autopistol blessings i havent looked at the list at all since launch for it lmfao😂
Havoc has its own problems with meta and balancing. Idk how tf theyd go about that, anything i say you can assuming I'm referring to normal auric. I know a lot of people don't realize it, but a lot of people don't even bother with havoc at all. Look at your average player in auric quickplay.
well its cause Havoc isn't meant for everyone, and I'll be honest im contempt with that hence why I occasionally play it instead of always play it
from Ancient Greek ζῆλος (zêlos, “zeal, jealousy”), from ζηλόω (zēlóō, “to emulate, to be jealous”).
the root word is zeal lmao
Yo mama, a second time.
I hit H40 already multiple times so now I just have it as a "If I want to do it" gamemode
zealot doesnt even seem like a real word anymore, shit..
Havoc exists for me as long as i dont have the 20 weekly caches penance
I still need the rest of the outfit which I want. Other than that though the only thing I want is the banner for getting like 20 rewards/100 havocs
Completely valid also LMAO, besides you see someone with that you know damn well they've been playing for sometime that or 53rd set
I just want randomized map layouts in the game like chaos wastes without the roguelike BS or randomized loadouts attached to it
A second Yo Mama has hit Cole
See something about the set though, you can complete any difficulty. The only thing that's actually gated is the legs. So you could get the rest just doing malice level shit 
I heard rumors that was what Darktide was planned to have by default, but they couldn't get it working and went with the traditional type of maps instead
Im sure they can get it working eventually
But will they
We got versus eventually
it is true, this is why we got mutiple maps taking place in the same environment
They should make a mode where you can choose the path you want to take. I.e maps in the same sector, choose to complete different ways. If that's possible
@spare talon how many stacks of bleed do shredders deal?
6
Sounds like the map screen from Chaos Wastes
Yes but live, go from vigil station before the elevator, and decide to go silo cluster instead
Brothers and Sisters, how do I optimize the flamer into being a primary weapon? I feel as though the Heretics have it too easy
decide to go to silo cluster
Please no
Yes

You don't.
Shame, I'm gonna figure it out on my own then
Don't care if it's subpar I love fire
@plain dragon nobody really says it but this is a mostly melee focused game. You can use a gun for elites and whatnot, but you're gonna be hard pressed to not use your melee at all.
Zealot is not a lovable down-on-his-luck rascal like Ogryn (he's shooting his twin linked stubber again! Haha look at him go!) so your team will not funnel you the ammo
more flak damage and unyielding damage
Fill it with bolter rounds
You optimize your ammo pickups
Rush ahead get all the ammo
Surely your team doesn't need it
Anyways avoid IJ, you'll shoot really fast or something
Overpressure blaze away
Flak and whatever armor type you hate the most
It's not a weapon that works as a primary weapon also
It's too ammo hungry and inefficient in situations where stuff isn't grouped or funneled
I know it's melee focused (all fatshark games play the same) but the flamethrower feels too much like a utility than an actual weapon if that makes sense
Something about "local man mad at sandbags."
give zealot a second one and make it a dual wield weapon unironically would just make it usable
Remember that you can bash with the flamer
It kinda is, it's better for melting trash and whatnot. It's not bad for ragers and elite gunners, but other than that it's not crazy good.
Optimal flamer build = just use it like a club
Are things not literally always bunched up in small hordes
Also my regular group has a survivalist so I'm not really afraid of ammo running out. And if it does then I'm still playing the best equipped class for that scenario
Brace of Autopistols when
Flamer is cracked I love flamer
parrying overheads should be a thrust instead of a sweep and deal really good armor and finesse damage t b h
in 4 patches BELIEVE
Ogryn tier advice thank you Slab
I hate auto pistol so much. What is this even used for
Nothing it's bad
Only thing I want at this point is that huge fucking flamer with a chainsaw that's on a figurine somewhere
for giving yourself a handicap
it's a stagger machine
It used to be super op
They nerfed the blessings it used
So it's total hot garbage
Except against Maniacs
i can fix autopistol by making it akimbo, now it's p cool
The only way to make the auto pistol usable is to maybe make it have infinite ammo. At least in it's current state
i levelled with that gun i shot a trapper 6 bullets and it still didnt stagger her
For level one zealots to waste my ammo when I help newbies

They should make the autopistol just shoot directly backwards, so if you ads and fire it just instantly kills you I think that'd be a good buff
Farttide two handed weapons when? Duel wield sorry, brain no worky
So OP it was meta even for Psykers when the game didn't even have talent support for gunker
Martyrdom tech
Can we get a brainless meta melta gun like sm2?
Bolter?
Melee + Pistol is such an iconic part of 40k, but if the game wasn't designed for them from the outset it's hard to imagine them being added years later
Plasma?
Nah you need to think a little with plasma to have it not blow your ass up
Still not as brainless as sm2 melta tbh, that shit was so brain dead jfc
still is imo, just gotta get the long ranged one
Except you don't
Just M1 it'll never explode
Chainsword and Stub Pistol should unironically be added to the game for Zealots and Veterans
Then again it may be possible to just hack something together where if you have a 1-handed melee and a pistol equipped, both show up on screen, you still have to switch weapon to go between but it would be almost instantaneous.
They should add a slab shield with 2 bolters welded to either side of it so you can just hold w and m1 and win
vanguard grapple + melta rifle = heretics melted
They exist already tho
Haven’t been in here for a while. Same ole gooning
Less*
Mods told them to pipe down
Slower gooning, unfortunately
Or just do what Vermintide 1&2 already did and have a sword with a pistol shot as a special action.
Yeah what did you all do.
Someone was posting porn
Check pins.
I mean for adding them as a combo for any 1H melee + pistol
So now the porn just comes slower?
No embeds.jpg
We've been grounded no image posting 😔
Could actually see it being an Axe and Pistol
Light combo is
Axe Swing L2R -> Axe Swing R2L -> Pistol Whip
Heavy combo is
Overhead Axe swing -> Haymaker with pistol (L2R)
Special Action fires the stub pistol
Become ungovernable dms it is
Going all about it wrong, give zealot an ability similar to Krieg, instead of going down they just start throwing a assload of grenades and can't get rezzed until they kill something with a self detonation or with a grenade kill
yeah its right under the mods pinning other shitposts 🙄
hey guys its time to be serious
except this one shitpost right here
They could do a little trolling at the same time by making weapon switches take much longer if you have equipped both a 2H melee and 2H ranged (tknife animation canceling "fixed" in the same patch)
Saltzpyre's rapier and pistol wasn't that unbalanced despite being a ranged option with unlimited ammo
🤔 i disagree
ASCII porn is back on the menu 
love me some low dmg high stagger shot that's effected by witch hunter's passive 
Alright tho, but on a real note. Darktide billhook when? GIVE ME POWER BILLHOOK REEEEEEE
Not everyone can comprehend greatness
low dmg
Didn't it two-shot Maulers (albeit at point blank, the falloff with range was severe)
Well what happnes if you eat Freddy fazbears pizza csue whn you eet feddy fve bfres pzza He gos hrf hrf hrf he hrf har he hadrdf he hrf and den he

I’ll gladly take the game not eatting my inputs causing sticky weapon swaps and and accidental desk pops
only after ogryn gets barefists
Me when I don't speak italian
it did more damage than the heavies at close range iirc
Tbf it was a pistol shot
Real
Anyways here's the unrelated 100% crit 1hk headshot Witch Hunter Captain
Oh yeah it has nothing to do with the implementation of dual wield
wha
The arc was weird as well
huh
Fym huh
You never went attack speed 100% crit WHC?

That rapier went mighty fast
Zoooom
pickaxe is close enough, welcome back vt2 billhook
Rapier also fun and good
ohg that yeah
Stormvermin walk up to you and their faces just melt
Pickaxe has the right idea. But I need it to be faster 
Okay okay unironically Zealot needs crossbows tho the Ordo Hereticus uses them all the time
Power crossbow when?
Catechist Pattern Stake crossbows have 15 round magazines of silvered, prayer inscribed adamantine stakes
repeating power crossbow that cleaves when
megamindnoembed?.gif
this is actually related to power crossbows you just have to trust
Would be pretty funny if they were dogshit against Flakapace and mid vs anything else, but absurdly high damage bonus vs Beast of Nurgle and allowed you to crown Daemonhosts like the L4D Witch
Unironically yeah give it absurd Infested/Unyielding damage and make it mediocre at best against anything else
BoN? Dead. Daemonhost? The dracula treatment. A Chaos Spawn? Not even a problem.
A gunner? insert Oblivion "why won't you die?!" clip
tbh id like to see some kind of weapon for psyker similar to bardins throwing axes
Like some kind of infinitely replenishing psychic projectile?
yes i know assail is a thing
im talking an actual weapon of sorts, just lightning it back to your hand or some shit
The last weapon they added that didn't one shot things was the shock mace, I figure any new weapon will have some insane finesse stab attack
Can you imagine just tossing your melee at a crusher to one shot and it just bounces back so you can repeat it
Telekinetic force sword would be neat and all, but again I don't foresee them adding it.
All it would require is a semblance of aim
I'm not suggesting something that op, bardins axes are a little broken themselves. Kill a chaos warrior in 2-3 hits on cata
Weapons on their own in Darktide aren't necessarily op, it's the blessings and talents that make them ridiculous
and talent trees, yes you mention i cant read
example: Rashad brutal momentum duellist on zealot, Rashad bm precision strike desperado veteran
Without that the Rashad is a single target axe that just deals consistently big single target damage with limited cleave on push attacks
With those talents it turns your brain off and paired with shout the only way you lose is by being an actual moron
ehh ds4 has always been OP, now it’s just on another level thanks to talents pushing it even further
True but it was limited to psyker who had to push up peril and play somewhat dangerously, and takes a while to cut through many enemies
Veteran doesn't have to build any stacks, just aim for the head
balanced class btw
If you play like I do (like I'm still rank 20) veteran is kinda weak in melee
In most cases I rely on my teammates to deal with crushers and maulers and shoot everything else and bruisers and poxers get the devils claw
Zealot has a ranged tree but you lose out on a lot of melee help for being more accurate in hipfire or gaining toughness on ranged kills
90% of meta vet gameplay is shout heavy stab quick plasma shot
Ideally (to me) only zealot and ogryn should have a chance of one shotting crushers in melee I think and that would only be with like shroudfield or branx pick or flip shovel
really need the maxed out talent tree to properly judge, the full tree makes a big difference on all the characters tbh
havoc 20? or level 20?
Level 20 because I like inflas and exy stance
vet with ds4 and thrust can easily 1shot crushers reliably
the ranges tree is terrible lol
the only ranged talents that matter are anoint in blood, dance of death, and IJ, (duelist too but it’s less consistent in ranged combat)
everything else is more or less irrelevant
Yeah that just shouldn't be a thing
But muh stealth ambuscade meme
Shout and just walk around to each crusher on the floor and stab them all once
one magging a beast of nurgle is pretty funny tbf…
shout is op as is, but thats another issue entirely
I fw sainted gunslinger
if only the talents leading up to it weren’t terrible
One of my favorite darktide memories was on like malice when I was still leveling up my first class and someone would knock over a crusher and the whole team would sprint over to hack at them with axes and shovels
this game needs elected representatives who can help with balancing and shit. Playtesters are supposed to be that but fatshart corporate doesn't listen to much
Because crushers were basically mini bosses and nobody knew how to dodge reliably yet
i should be a playtester…
I should be a senator
I should be the zealot....
You should be eating hylotl
if i get enough people to vote for me do u think i could be a playtester
Ye (do refer me when you make it big)
no make me a playtester because my opinions are the right ones
Probably not
(coming from the guy that thinks crusher is bad btw)
ey ey zealot
when are we getting a skill tree overhaul?
every weapon should do the same damage and 1shot every enemy including bosses so everything is consistent
Remember that Ancient of all ppl is a pter
frown.
I only said crusher was bad to throw gas on the fire before 
Ur not straight or male pookie sorry
counterpoint fuck 1shotting
lemme punch them fast enough that i can down a enemy under a 0.5 sec
how it feels to say “i was joking” after being wrong for 30 minutes (it’s a cop out)
off meta weapons could still use some balancing, but that still has the problem of the trees enabling shit to be broken af\
autopistol still bottom tier somehow
whatever you need to tell yourself so you feel like you won

Here we go againz ,,
heh, yeah,,… that’ll show them…. looks in mirror and alpha wolf looks back
cica do you fw starbound
awshitherewegoagain.jpg, all we had to do was follow the damn train, cj
Cyn crashout
maybe this channel deserved to have its rights revoked
oh my god WHY DO PEOPLE SAY “crashout” OVER THE SLIGHTEST THINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
growl…..
This made me start drawing bird people and also made me better at drawing human faces
I HATE EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU
This dudes refering the an argument we had months ago, in which i did say the crusher was shit purely to piss people off.
i was saying it needed some buffing and whatnot, but I jumped to the extreme when everyone starting dogpiling 
why people write sfx in their posts
fart...
Three days grace is a dookie band tbh
i cant post my tien gif so imagine me posting it after i say i hate
I believe this is called being cringe on purpose
because it’s funny
Used 2 i just love florans
cyn im 24 now👴
damn
I'm more of a glitch fan myself but florans are cool too
you are a relic.
go wither into dust old man.
wait how does that work?
Novakid gang
Downvotez u all
human gang
Nuru is cute af tho
#zealot-class stocks tanking
Finally
at this point im sitting here and waiting for new downvote emotes under meow's post
All these cool racez and u pick human..
bro plays dnd as human fighter
human fighter vs tiefling sorcerer who's winning the mid-off
2024 rules fire Goliath monk is my most recent
tiefling warlock you mean?
any charisma caster really
Only second level atm but going for reworked Elements at 3rd
Tiefling Monk Way of Astral Self or gae
Human or warforged is my go to
Are both not pretty strong?
Or do you mean how interesting they are
Yo mama
the second bit
They're only as boring as the people who play them
NOT NICE CICER TAKE IT BACK
But new rules for Elements are cool, it’s a form (with +10ft reach and freely choosable damage type) + lots of other fun toys instead of off brand sorcery points now
If you can't make it work, skissue to the highest degree
Yo mama
too bad all the D&D servers I'm in stick to 2014 rules
cuz I do like a big amount of the 2024 buffs to content
and spell changes
esp with the conjure spells
Zame
What 2014 rules? 
You really did it this time..
🐺 🌕
2024 rules are so cool
@hard nexus
Four Elements is poor man's Avatar
I like them so far
It’s good now!!!!!!!!
Why play monk that can cast like 4 spells if i can play actual caster class
(Also monk in general is good now, massively buffed)
Punch funny
Is the antax combat axe any good?
Human Fighter can be interesting, but most people just go for "BBG KILLED MY FAMILY AND I TOOK UP MY FATHER'S SWORD"
Artificer monk multiclass crafting a powerfist out of 20 wooden board
which i can do on cooler monk subclasses
Because instead of spells it’s a form that gives you 15ft unarmed strikes and elemental damage that can change every attack, fireball for 2 focus, flight during the form, a damaging dash attack, and bonuses to most of these at max
insert character getting tomatoes thrown at her here
Astral Self gives you four arms, check mate
While tiefling sorcerer was out having sex and partying.. I studied hte blade
holy shit im gonna find your decrepit remains in a tomb from eons ago
hold person:
LOL
Monk save rerolls:
failing anyway:
(I've been cursed with this the last time I played monk)
Is there somehting funny meow..
Several fantasy races and classes to choose from
Roll up Male Human Fighter with Longsword
Time to game.
rich kid with parents who trained them super well in sword fighting, gets bored so starts adventuring for the hell of it
Either way 2024 monk is so much better
true
Nah, that's Samurai Fighter subclass. At least it has some semi-interesting stuff
Is the Antax combat axe any good?
Like, hastened lvl 20 samurai that dies at correct moment can do like 20+ attacks in one turn
We don't talk about Darktide here, scurry on
Jk yeah it's pretty good when built right afaIk
Yes
Yes, but Rashad is better
Being able to drop 2d6+6 damage per round at first level is nasty
In what way?
Almost all of them
i like human sorcerer because i get the orbital death ray (sickening radiance)
Nurgle coded
I’m probably not going to play a caster for a while, I want to play around with Mastery
it’s called aura bruh
Nurgles blessings are strong with this one
I'm gonna cast polymorph self into a moth, forget what i was doing due to 1 INT and go eat some curtains
because i like to play as humans but i thought the bird people were cool so i would draw stuff from the game with my friend
i cast mothballs
Warlock randomly having powers that they didn't make a bargain or ask for at levels 1 and 2:
What if they just said "no" at third level mark
i cast deez
I looooove florans
i still dont get how drawing bird beak make you draw better human
nose=beak
the idea they have a beak instead of a nose and also a mouth
is smth
Mainly that Rashad gets the Finesse stat that boosts crit and headshot damage, whereas the Antax has Cleave Targets instead which help it do a little more damage to like the 4th poxwalker you cleave or something like that.
Should also mention the Combat Axe has poor horde clear unless it has Brutal Momentum (it should) and does enough damage to kill its first target in one light attack headshot (which it might not depending on how much it's Empowered, what difficulty you are in, how many Headtaker stacks you have, etc).
this is why you arent an artist
Flamer for hordes?
bold of you calling me not a artist
for the guy who cause the downfall of zeal chat
with drawings
Bolter
But fire 😔
Rashad w bm has amazing horde clear
Better than the tactical axe?
I learned recently that bm triggers on bosses 
manstopper can cleave through a 128 bosses
Wayyyy better lmfao
pics or didnt happen
A lot better than bosses bm triggering on you
ill dm to ya since i dont wanna get sent to narnia
I’ve been running the tactical axe a lot lately and it’s pretty good ngl
deal


yikes
