zealot-class

[carmine falcon]

relic, crusher, combat axe, heavy sword, hammer for melee
boltgun, boltpistol, las pistol, autogun, recon, double barrel, braced auto for ranged

i play em all

i need to use knife more

im pretty bad with it

[hearty nebula]

knife's lack of range just feels uncomfortable

not for me

[carmine falcon]

no its just skill issue on my end

[misty ravine]

Relic Blade + Bolt Pistol

[carmine falcon]

and not enough time with it

[prisma magnet]

I like the look of the heavy sword a lot but fighting armor with it sucks

[violet hornet]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9d80d899-dba2-4cad-af4f-fe11b5e9eacd/hsword-7-bolter

[carmine falcon]

thats why you cover that with a ranged that melts armor

[hearty nebula]

and that's why you have a gun

[carmine falcon]

HS eats ragers mutants and hordes

[prisma magnet]

Yeah i know

[misty ravine]

Hsword is great against most things (especially mixed hordes), but bad against Carapace and mediocre against Unyielding, that's what the Bolter is for

[prisma magnet]

Same principle as the relic

[violet hornet]

I'm usually switching to bolter for any armor or monstrosities I come across

[hearty nebula]

you can kill like 8 ragers in a single swing or something like that with fotf

[nocturne cobalt]

Use a relic sword instead

[carmine falcon]

except relic deletes armor

[hearty nebula]

i like using my brain sometimes so no

[nocturne cobalt]

Being a zealot means no thoughts but devotion to the God-Emperor.

[violet hornet]

Relic is a better all rounder, but an hsword can be fun to use still just because it's fast and deletes hordes of shotgunners, ragers, and gunners

Iirc it had the fastest hordeclear times for zealot before relic blade dropped

[open echo]

(sometimes i want to run immos) what should i use the last 2 on?

[violet hornet]

Fast enough you can play sloppy and not really get punished much for it which is fun

[open echo]

primarilly chaxe

[open echo]

any ideas what the bps are?, i forgot

[carmine falcon]

use mk2 if u wanna do wombo combos and be fancy

[carmine falcon]

im bad with numbers all i know is they fkn die

im sure the stat bros here know tho

[prisma magnet]

I'll get some more games with relic then, I think I'm being sloppy with it that's why I'm getting frustrated with mixed armored hordes

[carmine falcon]

which mark do you prefer?

[prisma magnet]

Like too many crushers and maulers I feel like I'm not doing too well

Mk10, but i haven't really touched mk2 yet so i can't really say that for sure

I play mk10 with blazing piety

[carmine falcon]

for crushers and maulers

power it up
H1 > H2 > L3
or
PA > H2 > L3
and make use of the charged thrust its super good, create distance and abuse it

also powered up l1 spam eats a rager pack and stuns them straight up

[prisma magnet]

I gotta create distance more, i think I'm fucking up there

[violet hornet]

You can dodge slide sideways and trigger the thrust if you slide long enough

[prisma magnet]

Also like

[violet hornet]

Powered light spam is great for keeping enemies back when you're pressured

[carmine falcon]

oh yeah most important tip is you should make use of the sword length, its absurdly long and helps u stay safe

[prisma magnet]

The relic has this annoying thing where if i sprint and power it, it stuns me for a bit, like there's a weird animation lock

[carmine falcon]

wait like 1-2 seconds until your character changes the holding animation then power it up

its smooth that way

[prisma magnet]

Alright

I will keep that in mind

[violet hornet]

Here's a havoc build you probably don't want to use for normal matches but I did put every combo I could think of on it for mk10 https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9dbb3dff-4759-499a-80aa-6f95e81981a9/havoc-support-zealot

[carmine falcon]

also a fotf with a powered thrust = crusher 1 shot

[hard nexus]

you want wrath for high havocs

[prisma magnet]

Yeah i do that often when I can. It's a little uncomfortable to do on controller cuz I have to dual grip the trigger and the shoulder, so more often than not I end up doing a fotf powered heavy slash instead, but that also nearly one shots

[carmine falcon]

oh that sucks

[prisma magnet]

It's not that bad

[carmine falcon]

i play on kbm so dont run into that thankfully 🙏

[prisma magnet]

Ye

I have a back button for tknife tho thankfully

[acoustic dune]

ok hear me out

what if

we are the ragers

[prisma magnet]

Cuz the default keybind for it is ^ on dpap XD

Which is kinda dumb honestly

[violet hornet]

Yep that's in the notes at the bottom

But ty you're absolutely right

[violet hornet]

Dual axes when, FS?

[open echo]

I am actually compeltley unsure what to grab

[violet hornet]

Was gonna ping dreg rager but they appear to be gone or renamed

[prisma magnet]

They rage for heresy, we rage for the God Emperor. We are not the same

ohg i didnt see the notes lmfao

[violet hornet]

[royal vortex]

there have been multiple times where nothing is happening and i forgot i have to hit E on something to make it happen because they were just like "remove it ALL." we need this in darktide

[north sedge]

Ok but only if we also get "Oops! All UI" too

[prisma magnet]

I wanna try the evis, it felt cool to lvl up. And I liked the funni dual rev fotf crit thing it had to melt bosses

[royal vortex]

terrible. haven't you seen those screenshots where someone has installed the worst UI mod known to man and 1/3rd of their screen is just cancer?

[violet hornet]

Me when I cannot see any enemies past their health bars

[royal vortex]

the healthbars mod is so ugly

i stop watching any clip that has them because i will not subject my eyes to that filth

have STANDARDS

[plush estuary]

Some people's huds are horrendous

[north sedge]

No but I'm thinking something like this

[royal vortex]

ah, a classic

makes sense

[misty nova]

Bro got that skull and bones

[sterile stone]

The fucking ubisoft UI

[royal vortex]

the quadruple A game

[sterile stone]

A UI only suitible for the most hardcore of ADHD

[violet hornet]

I used to use them but stopped when I realized I was looking for health bars and not enemies

[north sedge]

Yea someone made that when ER came out and some ubisoft and horizon devs were being super critical of the ui and the game itself

[hard nexus]

LMFAO i forgot about that

[carmine falcon]

change ubi ui to monster hunter ui

literally wtf am i looking at whenver i watch a clip

[north sedge]

Mh ui is insane but usable by comparison,and heavily customizable

[carmine falcon]

tbh the stuff darktide good players TM put on their screen is pretty funny too

i get why they do it but it looks ugly af

[prisma magnet]

Btw, what perks and blessings do you use for the relic blade? I've been changing that thing literally all the time, kinda wanna settle on smth.

Atm perks are unyielding and carapace, blessings are cranial and wrath

[carmine falcon]

carnial + rampage
i have carpace and unyielding on it but u can replace either with flak

carnial and wrath for havoc

[prisma magnet]

What's the difference between rampage and wrath?

[prisma magnet]

Cuz i have seen that

[hard nexus]

carapace elites

[carmine falcon]

rampage u get more dmg if u hit 3 things
wrath adds more cleave

[hard nexus]

wrath gives cleave

[carmine falcon]

oh yeah elites is great

[prisma magnet]

Like specially saying wrath for havoc but rampage for others

[hard nexus]

high havoc multiplies enemy hitmass values

so cleave is needed to hit more than like

3-4 enemies per swing

[prisma magnet]

I see

And rampage just makes each swing more powerful

[hard nexus]

rampage actually adds power, not just damage

so it increases damage, cleave, and stagger

however it only increases it by 36%

so the damage buff is nice

its nothing compared to the cleave buff of 200% from wrath

but that cleave isnt really needed in aurics

which is why people say cranial rampage for normal, cranial wrath for havoc

[prisma magnet]

I see i see

I'll swap to carapace elites then

[carmine falcon]

completely forgot that rampage also adds cleave and stagger lol
the terms in this game man

[plush estuary]

........

[prisma magnet]

That would stack to killing maulers and crushers better wouldn't it? Or am i wrong here

[plush estuary]

I love darktide

no audio

insta dead

[frosty herald]

Flamer backshots

Nasty work

[hard nexus]

nothing can cleave carapace except a couple of specific weapon blessings (perfect strike, for example)

so maulers yes

but not crushers

[prisma magnet]

Not the cleave, the perks in that case

[frosty herald]

Sunder

[plush estuary]

smite 😔

[hard nexus]

oh yah

[prisma magnet]

The carapace + elite dmg perks

[plush estuary]

and any psyker weapon

[prisma magnet]

That's nice

[hard nexus]

sunder does?

i didnt know that

but neat

[twin wagon]

Zealots hear me out

[prisma magnet]

I felt that on a spiritual lvl....

[twin wagon]

What if we replaced smite with smoke

Which allows psyker to spread the smoke grenade effect at will

I'm sure this will be greatly appreciated

[hard nexus]

oh sunder is just perfect strike but on heavies instead of crits

neat

[violet hornet]

Give psyker a massive blunt for it

[hard nexus]

its the same .25 hitmass multiplier

[open echo]

Did tknifes get a buff or smth?

[violet hornet]

Chaxe is kinda slow and twbs would help

[long oasis]

tknives cost the least in terms of points

you can get to all the good nodes without anything extra if you grab knives

[violet hornet]

Tknives are about where they've been at for a while they're just good value between how quickly you can toss one, how many specials / elites go down in a single headshot on damnation, and using them to draw a bolter or flamer more quickly

And the nodes preceding tknives are hot fire

[open echo]

my only problem with them is they kinda conflict with zarona

[open echo]

still with the xii? :3

[violet hornet]

Yeah they definitely sit in a similar niche, if you wanted to use both you could use the zarona for armored targets and far / moving targets that are harder to reliably hit with a tknife while conserving zarona ammo and reducing the amount of time you spend reloading for smaller, closer targets

[spare talon]

[open echo]

i more mean they kinda have the same(ish) purpose

[carmine falcon]

knives help u save zerona ammo

[violet hornet]

I'm not 100% sure but the 12 still feels slow enough to warrant twbs from my experience

[open echo]

fair, would a tknives chaxe build just be the normal zealot skill tree?

[violet hornet]

Probably lol

[spare talon]

And also synergize with each other
Not to mention that most zealot melees do enough to where the only things you may need are armor dmg or sniping from your gun/blitz, which revolver does both and knife does special sniping, and both with revolver

[open echo]

also whatr mod is that to show crit chance? :0

What did fatshark mean by this

[violet hornet]

Really depends on the targets ofc but here's some (questionable) havoc charts showing some clear times #zealot-class message

[carmine falcon]

found it

and i was also confused here just like i was confused with cole's

[violet hornet]

Clear time for crushers on mk12 chaxe beats the Mk4, but it has the worst clear time listed for ragers and isn't even on the normal horde chart

[open echo]

wdym questionable lmao

[misty nova]

https://tenor.com/view/queen-freddie-mercury-lets-go-come-on-fist-pump-gif-12322206833897807141

[violet hornet]

It is missing some key pieces of information about how many enemies and how times were taken. Some weapons show zero time like the ogryn flippy shovels but then you have hsword mk9 with 10 second rager clear time and anyone who's held a deathblow hsword mk9 knows it'll kill 5 per swing when done correctly

Also the blessing listed make zero sense, some are only mk2/3 blessing and picks are not always optimal

[open echo]

real

[misty nova]

Ogryn Foldable shovel legit being a one shot against pretty much everything

[open echo]

ig ill stick with to now until i am not broke

[plucky gate]

oh do we still not know why that sheet is so weird?

[violet hornet]

Ogryn flippy shovel is definitely going to one shot stuff but it's not accounting for any setup time, meanwhile the thunder hammer is at 7 seconds for a crusher kill?

Seems fishy

[violet hornet]

I certainly don't and lumii's not around to justify it anymore lol

[open echo]

orrr, should i use this and swap bloodthirsty to thrust?

im curios, whats the ds talent tree?

[prisma magnet]

Can mods reduce the game's performance? I kinda wanna get some to track my dodges and change my reticule, but my game is already dropping some frames. Are mods like these fine or will they be bad for my performance too?

[copper hawk]

meeeee

[copper hawk]

yes

some mods can significantly impact game performance

one of these mods that everyone uses is powerdi

i removed it cuz of its performance impact

[prisma magnet]

I see

[misty ravine]

My old PC would frequently crash when using Weapon Customization mod due to running out of memory

[prisma magnet]

Damn

[open echo]

i have not heard of that one

[misty ravine]

PowerDI was mentioned, I think even the less intense Scoreboard mods can hurt performance on lower spec systems

[prisma magnet]

Well no mods for me then

[violet hornet]

Yeah I dropped powerdi for performance too

Scoreboard good enough for my needs at least

[copper hawk]

nah

most mods are fine

and some of them are kinda required

like numeric ui

cuz of all the info the game just... hides from you for no reason

enhanced descriptions, etc

[violet hornet]

Yeah I don't think any other mods really cause a significant change in performance, maybe the one that makes it easier to see past flamer / psyker effects but that'd improve it

[hard nexus]

those mods (numericUI, crosshair customization, show crit chance) have pretty minimal impact, but powerDI for example can be pretty heavy

[copper hawk]

quality of life stuff like the mod that raises your cpu priority for the game (increased performance, computer will cull less prioritised programs for resources for the game), etc

[violet hornet]

Love calling out a MF for topping off on ammo when there's an orange ammo on the team

[copper hawk]

power di is the exception that proves the rule

[prisma magnet]

I honestly just want smth to count my dodges and change my reticle. I hate throwing knives with the non existant melee reticle. Scoreboard also sounds cool tho tbh

[fleet zealot]

reinferret

[violet hornet]

Reading off exactly how many ammo drops each person has taken is peak

[prisma magnet]

Oh that sounds great

[violet hornet]

Numeric UI will show dodge count for sure

[prisma magnet]

Wtf is powerdi

[copper hawk]

Numeric ui does this

Crosshair remap and others r also important

[copper hawk]

Mod that tracks a ton of data

While u play matches

[open echo]

psych ward is amazing

[violet hornet]

It's like scoreboard but shows more in depth stats like effective crit % and accuracy and time spent netted

[copper hawk]

Yah

It gathers and saves the data periodically through a match

Which can harm performance

[open echo]

oh yeh, what also was the mod that people use to show cleave, if thats what its for

[prisma magnet]

I Don't really need that tbh, scoreboard is fine, but also kinda not needed

[copper hawk]

My pc is pretty high end and removing just that one mod reduced my stuttering issue almost entirely

[copper hawk]

Yah

[prisma magnet]

Numeric ui, crosshair remap, and you said a cpu performance one too?

[modern lintel]

does any1 know what the active parry time is for devil claw

[violet hornet]

If I did I probably wouldn't suck ass with it

[modern lintel]

cause other cole me told 250ms but this seems ages longer then 250

[violet hornet]

Other cole probably knows

[prisma magnet]

It lasts even longer than the animation

Like a few ms after you lower the blade

I have been playing a bit with it recently

But i can't say specific ms

[modern lintel]

idk where i was ever trying to go w it anyway i was just trying to think if it could actually be done cole tells me 250 that sounds crazy fast i go to test it and its ez

[signal spoke]

It highly depends what mods you install, some can massively impact the perfomance

[carmine falcon]

i wanted to install the one that adds scopes but ive seen people complain about perf drops

[open echo]

any ideas what its called?

[open echo]

i am interested on what the dsword talents are, or is it just unintresting

[misty nova]

Witch!

[copper hawk]

Oh idk teehee

[modern lintel]

reason 84 for being evil

[misty ravine]

I'm not xenophobic—I don't fear xenos, I hate them

[misty ravine]

Dueling Sword can run whatever talents it wants, the only drawback is poor horde clear, so bring a Flamer and the talents that help the Flamer (Throwing Knives and Anoint In Blood) along with whatever flavor of Standard Pattern Zealot you feel like

[placid fiber]

I'm playing some more hades 1 and I just decimated a miniboss with the spear because I had the triple strike and deflect on attack... it was the witches in the 2nd area that projectile spam you... that projectile spam destroyed them lol

[misty ravine]

If you take the Mk5 Dueling Sword you can pair it with Inexorable Judgement for truly silly dodges

[placid fiber]

I'm getting offered 10% damage resistance... I'm not gonna pass up taking 10% less damage from everything for the rest of this run >.>

oh and I can pom it, fuck yeah

[copper hawk]

Gnarp?

[placid fiber]

Athena is probably my favorite god in hades 1 >.>

so far anyway

[misty nova]

Always bet on Artemis

I honestly forgot about any Athena Duo

[placid fiber]

I love athena on: the spear, the fists, the shield, and the sword... wait that's every melee weapon lol

[acoustic dune]

talking about athena making think of that one shen comic

about the girl lifter

[open echo]

oh, i was told ds had pretty good horde managment

[placid fiber]

I really like this keepsake, in hades 1... If you put it on for elysium you can sometimes have buffs from the thing after the boss fight that last until hades <.<

[spare talon]

shen comics are almost always peak

[robust nymph]

what zealot build do you least expect a good player to be using

[placid fiber]

eh...? Not sure how to feel about this hammer option... I might as well give it a try since I got a +50% dash strike bonus from chaos...

[placid fiber]

loner chorus

marty

[spare talon]

duelling sword with chorus

[placid fiber]

with uh... stun nades

[robust nymph]

and they make it work

[acoustic dune]

what do you mean

[placid fiber]

and no 40% dr on 1 wound in hp damage

[acoustic dune]

its always peak

[spare talon]

bike

[hearty nebula]

poor ogryn in this pub

just got stuck with 3 zealots

blud is not going to have a moment of peace

[spare talon]

oh like a build that is bad that they make work

[spare talon]

and not a build that a bad player would run

[robust nymph]

they use any build and they chose the least popular

[placid fiber]

Does this option ever come in clutch, sometimes, during a higher end heat run? :/

[acoustic dune]

i am trying to make a joke

but idk if i can make one

anyhow opened a big fuckoff tin can

[misty nova]

If you lose all your DD then yeah

Extreme measures Theseus is annoying

The rats are annoying

The satyrs are annoying

Satyrs?

What's the plural of this annoying things

Brb

[placid fiber]

Yeah fuck the big rats and satyr mfs

I've had poison get out of hand and do like 150 damage to me before x.x

[twin wagon]

Fellow zealots my overtime is over

Barrelmancy will be unleashed upon the pubs

[misty nova]

Silenus, Silenos, Sileni

[twin wagon]

You will not know how or why, but you are now flying into the abyss

[placid fiber]

This triple dash strike -25% range dash hammer "buff" feels weird... my dashes feel sluggish, but, I have the spear that makes you charge at it when you throw it with the special, so I can still use that for avoiding stuff :\

I don't think I am going to willingly take it again, unless I have some major dash strike bonus damage >.>'

Ow... I didn't play that fight out very well... I was at full hp when I went in... and I have 11.8% damage resistance... 😦

[polar nexus]

I hope FOTF will be gutted with zealot tree rework

[acoustic dune]

isnt smite like super op?

but very boring

[polar nexus]

Smite EP with shriek

[frozen crystal]

Yes-ish

[full nebula]

Its not good for damage, but the fact that it staggers anything but bosses makes it brainless

[polar nexus]

Smite EP + shriek is very good dmg

[broken walrus]

It hurts my soul to see a psyker smite bosses. Their brain has been so rotted. No thoughts, only smite

[plucky gate]

it's just so boring

[plush estuary]

it has very good damage

[full nebula]

not as fast as shooting or meleeing a head though

thats what im getting at

[polar nexus]

Actually yeah

[plush estuary]

scales with density so techinally it has infinite dps

[twin wagon]

You know what's better than smyker damage

Gunker

[polar nexus]

Nah

[twin wagon]

[twin wagon]

Shoot into hordes

[polar nexus]

Ammo PB

Smite doesn't care about that

[twin wagon]

Use extra speed to hoard ammo

You shouldn't either

[polar nexus]

[twin wagon]

[hidden grove]

the most controversial skill in game

[twin wagon]

Rename your psyker into "ammo goblin"

[hidden grove]

also arguably the one that can carry you past 40 with the least issues

[twin wagon]

Win, cause your veteran, Glugger and zealot to ragequit

[broken walrus]

Does Gunker just turn into Melee psyker for anyone else?

[twin wagon]

Find a burgle
Ignore it and keep running

[polar nexus]

With the taxe or the fgs yeah

[twin wagon]

Gunker either becomes speedker or meleker

Barrelmancy+gunker tho is prob the fastest I've gone

24 units

[full nebula]

Gunpsyker/Melee/Assail are pretty much all the same build

[twin wagon]

3 times the speed of a mutant

[full nebula]

Trees very narrow

[polar nexus]

Also fgs special + bistol puncture + shriek is excellent ranged DMG. You just dot the entire screen

[acoustic dune]

i remenber down in a almost empty room just to sit and see a psycher smite a shit mob

i died

the smykers was 5 meter away

[broken walrus]

Watching a smyker try to clutch is a form of torture for sure

Bruh, no one is alive, what is smiting going to do

[acoustic dune]

it was a form torture in any route

[acoustic dune]

prob gonna die from trash mob

thats why the smike so much

[misty nova]

Yes

A good psyker will turn off the game
A bad psyker will turn off the game

It just so happens that the bad psyker will have some really bad habits

[acoustic dune]

ok hear me out

what if smite

was change into a passive blitz for melee psycher

[plucky gate]

what would pressing g do then?

[acoustic dune]

confetti

[plucky gate]

amazing

[violet hornet]

Auric histg spawn director putting out bursters and mutants at just the right time to have the mutants push the bursters against smite knock back so they blow up on the smyker

[acoustic dune]

or a nuke buttom

they die immediatly

[misty nova]

Charged Strike if it was good

[acoustic dune]

everyone get flung like they get hit by a giant barrel

[placid fiber]

ooo 15% dr!

[vast basin]

I've had this happen to me but with dogs pushing the bursters instead

[placid fiber]

At least they specify that he's okay. :3

Welp time to probably die to hades... Maybe not since I have 3 death defies still :\

[misty nova]

God of the dead

[placid fiber]

I have gotten much better at not losing my death defies before him at least x.x

that and my abuse of the mini charon fountains helps >.>

[broken walrus]

The secret to Hades is to not be a wussy and dodge into him IMO

[placid fiber]

Ever since I found zagrius' mother in this I have been paying 10x more attention to the story.

[placid fiber]

I've been accidentally doing that and successfully dodging his spin attacks... it only works like... 1/3rd of the time since I don't know the timing and I am not doing it intentionally, but, I still have been avoiding some of them

[plucky gate]

i like the story

[violet hornet]

Thanks I hate it 😨

[plucky gate]

game has really good dialogue

[placid fiber]

wait what?! He just let me pass this time... -_-

[broken walrus]

ayyyy we take those

[plucky gate]

hades is sparing you

[full nebula]

YOU HAVE TO READ?!!!?

[placid fiber]

Well... I just beat heat 2 on the spear... because of hades saying: "Fuck you" to me and my build...

[sterile stone]

@drowsy steppe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W5NzWlKHdvA

Peep the vibes

[open echo]

impossible

[sterile stone]

Lemme know how you feel

[placid fiber]

holy fuck she's going back to the underworld 😮

Does this mean I can finally get he last 2 keepsakes?

[open echo]

does crit dclaw still use rampage and shred + flakiac?

[placid fiber]

I think the dclaw is either rampage + shred/savage sweep or shred + rampage/savage sweep

[obsidian prairie]

Yes

[placid fiber]

And I got the end credits! Woo!

[spare burrow]

playing aroudn with combat blade shroud build, the ultimate douch build ... need the penancesfor knives and shroud and loner, which mark of blade shoudl i use and shoudl i use both the crit bleed stack and the non weak spot ? right now im playing aroudn withthe bleed on crit and 100% backstab rending

[placid fiber]

It only took me 37.5 hours <.<'

[broken walrus]

You got the first end credits, but what about second end credits?

[placid fiber]

I literally haven't even gotten past heat 4 on any weapon... not yet <.<'

[plucky gate]

aim for 32

[placid fiber]

Heat 1 was easy for me cuz I knew what I wanted: -25% healing

[plucky gate]

i played on hell mode so i was forced to play 5 heat minimum...

[placid fiber]

That's what I did in hades 2 cuz -25% and -50% healing were pretty easy choices for 2 points in

[broken walrus]

I enjoyed Extreme Measures 4 for 10 Heat, and it felt like 4 new boss fights

[vast basin]

The extra damage from traps is also a pretty easy heat mod

[placid fiber]

tho I did +20% damage instead of -50% healing for heat 2 <.<'

[plucky gate]

extreme measures 4 is good content
definitely try it once

[placid fiber]

I can't wait for my last 2 keepsakes to be obtained

I'm a collector, in both this game and hades 2... when it comes to keepsakes and weapon aspects and companions >.>'

[plucky gate]

skelly has a prize if you beat heat 8, 16, and 32

good luck

[placid fiber]

the end credits song ended because I kept tabbing out of the credits... so it pauses where I was in the credits while it was still playing the end credits music

There's only 1 heat modifier I don't think I will ever use: the one that makes you have # minutes to escape each area... I like taking my time, and I hate having a timer making me try to kinda rush >.>'

[plucky gate]

timer condition is not too bad

get used to pausing when selecting doors

[placid fiber]

I never touched the timer condition in 2, and I am 98% certain I will not touch it in 1... until much higher heat values...

[grizzled aspen]

I will do every other heat on the board before I do the fuckin timer.

[plucky gate]

like first pact for timer is 9 minutes per region and it accumulates.
Do your runs take 36 minutes?

[vast basin]

Timer is actually pretty manageable

[placid fiber]

^ Frog gets it.

[grizzled aspen]

I cheese enemies when I'm in a bad situation.

And that takes some time.

[plucky gate]

I do 7 minute timers pretty regularly except on bow

[placid fiber]

I get it helps you play hades better, technically(I think anyway)... but I do not like feeling like I am being rushed. :\

[grizzled aspen]

Like miniboss in asphodel is impossible with sword until you get regenerating casts.

Fucking witches with armor, man.

[plucky gate]

timer also removes timed rooms
I find those rooms mildly annoying so that's a benefit for me

[vast basin]

It also pauses when you are choosing boons and such

[grizzled aspen]

WAIT IT WHAT

I didn't know it got rid of the "hades says fuck you" rooms.

[plucky gate]

the rooms where you have to survive x amount of time

[placid fiber]

I still have some heat 0 rewards to grab from beating hades... with like... all but 1 weapon

[plucky gate]

timer is paused during competitions with thanatos as well

so don't worry about those

[placid fiber]

Meh... I just don't want a timer edging me forwards. I like going at my own pace

[plucky gate]

maybe just turn on the speedrun timer in the settings just to see what your time would be like

[vast basin]

Like, I avoided timer aswell until I actually tried it once and realized how much easier it was than I thought

[placid fiber]

Yay!

[grizzled aspen]

Ok so maybe I will turn on the 9min timer then.

[plucky gate]

just to get a feel for how long it takes you

[placid fiber]

For me it isn't about how easy it is, I just don't like being timed...

[grizzled aspen]

I figured it didn't get rid of thanatos comps or timed rooms.

[misty nova]

Let's go

[plucky gate]

thanatos comps are still there but timer is paused

[grizzled aspen]

Does in pause in charons shop or npc rooms?

Like sisyphus's room?

And in conversations?

[placid fiber]

Frog... I beat heat 2 with the spear... cuz hades just let me pass this time... yay...? <.<'

[plucky gate]

npc rooms are paused

conversation and boon selection menus are paused too

[misty nova]

No one expects that

[plucky gate]

i can't remember if just standing in the shop pauses it

[grizzled aspen]

You should play with Pact of Punishment enabled. (you start at heat 5)

[plucky gate]

but timer pauses in your pause menu so you can just think while pausing the game

i frequently pause when deciding which door to go to

it's habit at this point

[placid fiber]

I want each seperate level of heat reward for upgrading the weapons n buying work orders x.x

[grizzled aspen]

I'm not actually sure how that works with the Pact of Punishment.

[placid fiber]

I want to upgrade the aspects I love asap <.<

[grizzled aspen]

I have a mod that allows me to collect previous heat rewards so I can literally turn on everything and do one run with a weapon if I want.

[placid fiber]

I upgraded zagrius' of the shield to the max already, and I think I have the gun's hestia one at the 2nd to last level

[plucky gate]

doing hell mode starts you at heat 5 and the rewards go from 5-25
non-hell mode is 0-20

[placid fiber]

Still can't believe I got the time where hades just let me go on by, when I was on heat 2 with the spear lol

[vast basin]

Zeus shield is fun and what I use the most

[plucky gate]

imo zeus shield is the best shield

chaos shield seems more popular

[placid fiber]

Frog said zeus on the shield throw is the go-to

[plucky gate]

but zeus shield special goes so hard

so much free dps

[placid fiber]

I thought zeus special was the same as it was on the attack, I was surprised when it was just 1 zap

Still... I haven't gotten to use it much, yet

My last shield build was just an attack spam adrenaline rush with athena on the dodge and attack

the +15 base damage on the dash attack and attack was really nice for that, I think I got a chaos attack damage buff as wel

[misty nova]

More shields wahahaha

[plucky gate]

oh btw, if you do intend to do 32 heat one day, i suggest practicing with 1 level of the increased enemy attack speed condition

It's a pretty brutal condition for only 3 heat, but when you climb that high, you don't have many options left

might as well get used to the speed

[placid fiber]

The picture has the right spear aspect in it, as well. How about that lol

[plucky gate]

dog

[placid fiber]

bestest 3 headed doggo ever :3

aw man I can't get hades' keepsake yet... so I am 1 short of all of em... 😦

[placid fiber]

wait is this what you were talking about? Or the zeus boon on the special? :\

[misty nova]

Yes Zeus shield

[plucky gate]

yeah

also get zeus boon on the special for that shield

[heady rapids]

https://www.reddit.com/r/DarkTide/comments/1j9tfjx/i_know_its_not_final_version_but_i_am_curious_if/

check this shit out!!!

[misty nova]

It's basically a safe zone on demand

[vast basin]

Yeah that shield is cracked

[plucky gate]

it's so much dps

pretty much a second person attacking

you can attack at the same time it's ticking

[placid fiber]

Hm... so it increases the damage from 8 to 13 from lvl 1 to lvl 2... does that mean it gives +20 more damage from lvl 1 to lvl 5? Something like 28 minimum damage per special?

or like 33?

That's quite powerful 😮

[vast basin]

Throw shield with special> somehow still attacking with the shield

[placid fiber]

oh it makes it a constant damaging area

That sounds good <.<

Does it synergize with zeus on it as well? >.>

[vast basin]

Yeah, although controlling it takes some practice it is well worth the effort

[hushed knoll]

Hi ice cream sundae frog

[plucky gate]

yeah zeus special boon works well on it

it ticks often and at like the perfect speed to stay within the boon's rate limit

pretty much the most value you'll ever get out of zeus special boon

[hushed knoll]

Hi screaming mushroom

[placid fiber]

so it travels up to a set distance away, based on where your cursor is?

[plucky gate]

hi stan

[hushed knoll]

Hi darkpillthony

[acoustic dune]

STAN

[hushed knoll]

Hi wolfy

[placid fiber]

or to where your cursor is?

[hushed knoll]

I am bout to cook dinner

[acoustic dune]

WHERES THE HELDRITCH CREATURE THAT YOU HAVE CONSUME

[plucky gate]

set distance

and you can call it back and run around with it behind you if needed

[acoustic dune]

having second?

[hushed knoll]

??

[acoustic dune]

how naughty of ye stan

[plucky gate]

something could just be chasing you and you could just walk with a spinning death shield hitting it constantly

[placid fiber]

I also noticed it can't get backstab damage

oh you can also still attack with it as well

[plucky gate]

yeah

[placid fiber]

unlike with the shield throw :\

Man... this is gonna take quite a few runs to get it upgraded a decent bit... but it looks worth it. Like Hestia on the gun.

I'm gonna see who I get for my 1st boon, otherwise I'm gonna take zeus' keepsake to see if I can get him on the special with this for a run

[placid fiber]

how bad is this heat setting? Just wondering >.>

[plucky gate]

I take it pretty often

it's noticeable but you'll be fine

[placid fiber]

It's a free +2 heat, at what seems to look like not that big of a cost

[plucky gate]

iirc some minibosses change a lot

[placid fiber]

which means I can turn off the +20% enemy damage for it... I need heat 3 for my next shield run for rewards :\

[violet hornet]

Which world cuisine will you be defacing today?

[plucky gate]

like the arena might change or they get a new mechanic

some just get a shield though

[placid fiber]

Eh... I only need 2 heat for my next gun run, I will probably do that 1 first >.>

I have lvl 4 hestia on it already

[plucky gate]

worth experiencing it at least

[placid fiber]

it is also the one with hunger or w/e

[hushed knoll]

I am making chicken and vegetables

[plucky gate]

remember to cook the chicken stan

[hushed knoll]

I do

[placid fiber]

By doing this first if I win the run then I can get he zeus aspect to level 2 for the 1st run with it >.>

[violet hornet]

What kind of vegetables are those?

[frosty herald]

Stan what have i told you about raw chicken

[violet hornet]

Looking like angel hair, shredded Parm, and undercooked chicken thighs

[placid fiber]

ooo explosive shot with hestia on the gun again, I like that one >.>

[violet hornet]

Interesting to see red pepper flakes on there, I assumed Stan's the type to think oregano is too spicy

[stone fern]

staaaaaaaaan

[hushed knoll]

It’s not raw

[hushed knoll]

Spaghetti squash

[hushed knoll]

Hi

That is a pic from last week

I am making something similar tonight

[hushed knoll]

Not undercooked

[misty nova]

I don't remember how to get it but the last aspect of the rail is pretty interesting

[placid fiber]

Man hestia with a boon that gives good damage % slaps... I really like aphrodite on it, since it seems to give some of the higher end damage #'s with it >.>

Just melted Alectro lol

[placid fiber]

Do you know: Does this affect how fast I can throw the special after throwing it, or just how long I am in the animation of throwing it? The grenade, for the gun, I mean.

Hm, idk how accurate it is but when I googled about it the people on this reddit post seem to say that the grenade itself goes faster...

[misty nova]

I thought it also decreased the charge time of your special

[placid fiber]

Oh, they were right. The grenade projectile goes way faster now

[misty nova]

Can you spam it more often?

[placid fiber]

Not that I can tell, but, the grenade itself seems to land much faster

[misty nova]

I see I see

[placid fiber]

while I kinda want 60% more rewards... since my special seems to land faster, I am probably gonna take the special from poseidon. :\

101% more special damage <.<

[placid fiber]

I don't think I can use the grenade faster... but I definitely am noticing how much faster the projectile is moving. Even with only +20% on the special speed

[sterile stone]

American billiards

[grizzled aspen]

Not bad. Tartarus has another bomber guy, Asphodel has some of the jumper dudes that fall from the ceiling, not sure what it does to Elysium.

You could always just take it and never go into a miniboss room.

[misty helm]

iirc Poseidon is one of the best for Special damage, especially if you get some knockback synergy

disclaimer: it's been a minute since I played Hades

[grizzled aspen]

Counterintuitive for Zeus shield.

[placid fiber]

btw those fate rerolls from the mirror are expensive af... :\

[grizzled aspen]

You want enemies to remain in the Zeus special.

[placid fiber]

I need a hell of a lot more shadow >.>'

[grizzled aspen]

Best special for Zeus shield is probably either Ares or Dionysus.

[placid fiber]

level 5 hestia + a strong % bonus attack boon fucking wrecks house

I actually feel like I am doing good damage vs bosses with it... and I only have +120% attack damage from aphrodite rn on it

this thing might also be helping, tbh... :\

[placid fiber]

wait... wouldn't this make hestia's bonus not able to be used?

I mean... I kinda don't care, tbh, since I really like not having to reload on the gun... it was hella fun for me the last time I got it, plus I still have explosive shots >.>

[misty nova]

Afaik you can still press reload

[placid fiber]

No I can still reload for hestia's shot, I just tested it

[misty nova]

Yup

[placid fiber]

Holy fuck I like that hammer lol

lol 16 encounters for the +20% movement speed

[hearty nebula]

👀

[sullen forge]

Ngl so thankful for the Brute Conscripts event only leaving me with Reapers which I got done with like 2 weeks ago

Cause holy shit the Ogryn Bestiary takes ages

[placid fiber]

@grizzled aspen Hey, frog, I was just wondering something since you seem to know a lot about Hades 1... does fighting the minotaur make him weaker for the double fight at the end of elysium? Sometimes he just seems easier to take down when I am fighting him a 2nd time in a run...

[grizzled aspen]

No, he is just an easy miniboss for better than average boons.

Boons from miniboss rooms are always better than normal ones.

[broken walrus]

He does start the fight with like 25% less hp if you fight the minotaur miniboss

[sullen forge]

Sup

[placid fiber]

Ah. Plus it helps give you extra practice for the duo fight at the end of elysium? >.>

[grizzled aspen]

A bit.

The dangerous part of that fight is dealing with Thesius after you kill the minotaur.

[sterile stone]

I'm trying to find people who're into anime and play dbd

[grizzled aspen]

Thesius is unironically harder than Hades, imo.

[sterile stone]

They added some dude from tokyo ghoul and I'm trying to figure out who tf he is

[grizzled aspen]

Show me who it is.

[placid fiber]

The big thing I strugle with against the minotaur is luring the charge into a pillar/wall... I end up trying to constantly dodge back and forth with it even tho I know getting him into the wall ends it...

[sterile stone]

[grizzled aspen]

I watched Tokyo Ghoul in its entirety + read the manga.

[sterile stone]

It's this dude

[grizzled aspen]

Yeah that's Kaneki, the main character.

[sterile stone]

Oh word

He's the new killer they added

[grizzled aspen]

(its a good fucking show go watch it)

[grizzled aspen]

Don't bother luring him into a wall.

He is unironically easier to fight if you just dodge through him.

He can't instantly 180.

[placid fiber]

Yeah, but, if I don't get him into a wall he ends up getting me when I mess up the dodge <.<'

[fringe bay]

I actually hated the anime

[broken walrus]

Like I said, the secret to Hades is to dodge at enemies
