power and strength are the same yeah

Oh I don't think they are

they are

they changed power to strength back at crafting update iirc

power is damage/cleave/stagger

strength is a bit different from power cause it also gives you dn

i got the coat that's all i care about

glossy nimbus
#

This means 50% cool down on ability right

south prism
#

@normal shell look it's for you

glossy nimbus
#

yay

heady rapids
#

50% cooldown would be achieved by having a +100% cdr

glossy nimbus
#

kay thats 4 seconds off my ability each marked kill I think

#

Unless I'm dumb with math..(I am)

heady rapids
#

4 bonus seconds yes

#

to your base 8

#

for the duration

lament blaze
#

the psyker aura though isn't cool down rate it is true cool down reduction right?

#

Yeah, you'll just refresh the ability

glossy nimbus
heady rapids
#

no

glossy nimbus
#

society.

heady rapids
#

it's kinda complicated cause fatshark chose to use seconds

coral tendon
heady rapids
#

so you have to think of it as

#

you get 1.5 seconds per 1 second

#

while that talent is active

glossy nimbus
#

Okay per 1 second 1.5 seconds gets added onto?

heady rapids
#

no as innnn

#

1 second of real life time

glossy nimbus
#

uh huh

heady rapids
#

and the 1.5 seconds is the unit of measurement for your ult charge here

#

if that makes any sense

glossy nimbus
#

1.5 seconds is the unit of measurement on my ability...I'm lost ngl I can't pretend I understand roachfall

heady rapids
#

ok so

#

your normal cooldown rate is 100%

runic grotto
#

1 second of real time = 1.5 seconds of ability cooldown

heady rapids
#

which is equal to 1 second

#

which is also 1 second in real time

glossy nimbus
#

mhm

heady rapids
#

if you get malocator

#

that adds 50%

#

that becomes 150% of your cooldown rate

#

which is 1.5 seconds

#

but it's still per 1 second of real time

glossy nimbus
#

I think I'm starting to get it hold on

heady rapids
heady rapids
glossy nimbus
#

so 0.50 is added to each second of my ability cooldown?

heady rapids
#

yes

lament blaze
#

real cooldown time = (base cooldown) * (1 - cooldown reduction) / (1 + increased cooldown regeneration)

#

convert percentages to decimal in formula

heady rapids
#

oh wait am i too used to numeric ui

lament blaze
#

oh wait

glossy nimbus
#

Oh shit I. OKay so the cooldown rate is where its going down. 150% cooldown rate oooh I think I get it

heady rapids
#

yeah

lament blaze
#

real cooldown time = ( (base cooldown) * (1 - cooldown reduction%) / (1 + increased cooldown regeneration) ) - flat cooldown reduction

heady rapids
#

you get your ult 1.5 times faster

drowsy steppe
glossy nimbus
#

Cooldown rate is one second and malocator adds 0.50 to each second, making it go down even faster.

heady rapids
#

yeah

glossy nimbus
#

Ah I understand now

#

I'm a master at math

lament blaze
#

You can think of a cooldown not being in seconds but in points

oak ice
lament blaze
#

and by default, you earn 1 point per second

#

but you can earn more points

glossy nimbus
#

Okay so 8 seconds of my cool down will be made 1.50 s

#

That's 12 seconds in total

They just don't know how to play with either shroudfield nor martyrdom.

mystic ether
#

I'm talking about the sentiment.

gaunt roost
mystic ether
#

The same can exist there. People get put on to something fun and effective that shroudfield can do, they haven't exactly picked up on better fundamentals habits nor zealot-specific skills, they copy and paste the build, sometimes not even reading how the talents work, they show up and pray that flailing can work just because there's a freeish stealth button, they're running a keystone that actively requires you to have a clue about the first and second points to even reap the benefits of it.

coral tendon
mystic ether
#

So they gotta get better at the basics, get better at zealot, get better at shroudfield, and get better with running martyrdom.

The cycle continues.

heavy sword good

mystic ether
# carmine lance what defines shroudfield knife babies lol

The aforementioned. Mostly just people learning their way through the play style back then before the duelling sword became the easier version of the same playstyle.

It's less of an insult and more of a sort of reality with people that like stealth buttons in tide games. The less experienced are taking on a playstyle that gets harder when the pilot isn't too keen on the basics.

gaunt roost
#

i dont get why people like stealth in these games

#

wat is the appeal of stealth in a horde shooter game

mystic ether
#

It's just fun

#

This isn't really a horror game fr

fleet otter
#

sneak past to revive people

mystic ether
#

I mean it has scary things in it but the vibe is more about combating the scary shit than being worried about the scary shit.

gaunt roost
mystic ether
#

And stealth playstyles in tide games often coincide with an investment in high risk, high reward play when having to contend with things outside of stealth.

Darktide just has more immediate sauce that enables that playstyle further with its base mechanics by comparison. Mobility is king for these playstyles and genuinely feels good to play with builds whose primary utility is their mobility.

copper hawk
#

does a skibidi at you

fleet otter
mystic ether
#

Plus, despite the internet and its need for wannabe cool guys, people just like agile dex bastard gameplay.

The problem in tide games is that when you're playing like that, the weapons that often work better with it on paper often have poorer wave clear, block costs like in vt2 with dual daggers, etc.

#

And positional damage adds to this extra layer of all these tiny things coming into play. You actually need to be able to consciously (or fail forward well enough) and consistently pull off weakspots, backstabs, cycling stealth to maximize its usefulness and maintaining killstreak momentum to better handle more dangerous situations.

So by the time we get into Zealot's existence with this playstyle, you have a creature of a class already oozing toughness damage reduction on dodge, literally the lifeblood of every high mobility finesse melee weapon in the game, a now free to access invincibility passive, and now more than ever multiple avenues into effective branches of a playstyle that currently is the most outrageous it has ever been fr in terms of accessibility and survivability.

#

But for people very new to the game, they're already on a longer sort of journey because they have to actually develop those skills over time enough for the input needed in stealth builds to shine wild as hell.

hard nexus
#

aka stealth is a crutch unless ur good

mystic ether
#

So deaths are much more common, especially if we account for how people already new and less consciously applying better judgement, positioning, whatever. They'll eventually get it and apply all those skills elsewhere too, but when you're new and doing all this dex bastard nonsense and you finally get hit, they often trio and die.

hard nexus
#

then it’s just a really good crutch

mystic ether
#

Crutch is just corny to me.

hard nexus
#

yeah it is but it’s also true

mystic ether
#

This whole game is nowhere near as tough as people like to make it out to be.

#

So idk what the point in crutch being thrown around is other than that corny veebo game stuff.

#

And even then. Shroudfield for a new player is actually far more risky than something like fotf.

hard nexus
#

not really

#

press F for free 5 seconds of do whatever

mystic ether
#

The same way shade kerillian was a bull buster for newer players. Yes, they can pick up on the utility and purpose of hitting a "no more hit me" button. But then their overall positioning could be so poor from getting rocky and overextending will literally get them stuck.

What are you talking about yk?

#

Like no, new stealth players that are really green screw themselves all the time with stealth at higher levels. It's the main way they die.

hard nexus
mystic ether
#

I know that being dishonest is a practice here but that's not how a "crutch" operates if they're fucking themselves.

#

Voc would be the better example here by miles or ogryn charge

#

It actively corrects heavy mistakes when used that way by actually removing obstacles to the fumble.

#

You actually gotta sit in your own shit when you trip yourself using shroudfield hard enough.

#

And then do whatever you can to make a pocket to get out again. Even learning that strategy alone is lost of beginners.

hard nexus
#

sry in game so i cant type all the timwe

mystic ether
#

Because they panic so fast and haven't developed their dodging habits. At that point, shroudfield is honestly more of a hindrance on them until they get better.

# hard nexus are you saying that i am arguing because i am personally offended by this?? i am...

I'm not saying you're offended, I'm saying that mods fit within that role that plenty aren't considering a crutch when there's an entire list of mods dedicated to just giving people information that they don't need to play well, don't need to execute mini games, don't need to fire weapons they can fire or use effectively and it's the most widely practiced thing within the playerbase.

Definitionally that isn't a crutch. A crutch is something you need in order to stand up. A crutch is a tool that those crippled in the legs use to stand upright, otherwise they would fall over. By stating that mods merely provide superfluous information you undermine your argument that mods are a crutch. In this case, to maintain the argument, you would need to contend that a player who took away their mods would be unable to play at the same level as someone with or without the mod.

#

This is an unarguable position. It's case-by-case and anecdotal to the player.

mystic ether

Because you know for a fact that that's the case.

Shroudfield, I agree, is a "crutch", but is also fundamentally antithetical to the design philosophy of Zealot. This is why I don't use it (the latter, that is).

mystic ether
hard nexus
copper hawk
#

Shroudfield allows you to simply drop yourself from the view of enemies (the difficulty) and position yourself without the risk of taking damage. You can get multiple charges of this ability and you can use it to drop aggro entirely to reposition, or you can use it to circumvent entire areas of enemies due to the fundamental nature of stealth.

It's beyond a crutch. It's a teleporter. It completely removes the need to walk at all. Epic_Cole (a playtester, one of the best players in the game) has made a video demonstarting him clearing a H40 by simply popping Stealth and running past all the enemies.

hard nexus
#

dogshit player that makes it thru h40 solely with stealth

copper hawk
#

A fundamental part of how he was able to do this was because of the nature of stealth; you can bypass entire mechanics by simply ulting, and not risk - especially on maps where sequence breaks exist, such as airlocks or drop-downs.

You could ping when hover below healthbar

It was THE pick in Havoc 40 due to the fact that it allowed you significant benefits in melee.

and also voc can be viewed as "wait im not in the back anymore, let me press this button and fix that"

They should reduce voc to 1 point of golden

Just to see what happens

#

H40 ranged enemies were so healthy, ammo was so little, and these enemies were so numerous that a backline sniper simply wasn't all that useful.

That's why VoC is an exception that proves the rule.

# hard nexus some mods do help, but the extent to which they help is very negligable, a playe...

No. The combination is dramatically different and fundamentally provides a totally different experience. People take upkeep mods because they're not about to be taking the time to rake their brains over every single buff at every step. They're taking health bar mods to literally have full access to a critical stream of information that scale with the highest difficulties of this game so people change their decisions based on a wider scope of information.

A player using shroudfield has to actually still be capable of playing outside of shroudfield well enough and long enough to cycle it again.

Enemy movements and positioning in higher difficulties will always matter because just because you can tap a disappear button doesn't mean you can escape just being in a shitty spot with your back exposed. You also don't get a toughness steroid thrown into your lap, a minor cc tool and gap closer. You still have to take on consequences but the weapons that people can often take with fotf are often much better at frontal assaults. This is made even easier with safer and powerful weapons with simple avenues to dealing damage.

You can mash f all you want and turn into a ghost, but for a real deal green beginner, they're already having to get over the immediate hump of just fighting before shroudfield ever matters so none of that is at all helping them out.

Yes. Tapping that disappear button does exactly as you described it doesn't. It totally drops tracking aggro from you. If you move out of the way you can simply run out of the way without enemies actively following you. It saves you from poor positioning. It lets you completely evade the repercussions of poor positioning, which is a fundamental part of the gameplay loop: poor positioning gets you splattered. I disagree fundamentally with your assessment. You also still have your tness options proc (EWEW, other talents) while not being engaged, so you don't have to worry about being chipped as you press the disappear button. Although yes you don't get a bump to toughness, you also get toughness free of charge. Practically speaking, they are identical.

Epic_Cole proved that "simply pressing F" is the only way a character in this game can beat an H40 solo in under 25 minutes.

Nope. Enemies roaming will always roam. New players get caught in bad positions trying to peel out of mobs they waltz into all the time. You gotta actually put in the effort to understand the game we're talking about here because I know you see the same things if you're making these claims. A temporary reposition concealment button literally means nothing when a newer player just blows their own cover as often as they do in bad situations. They aren't fast enough to land their needed hits for anything like pious in most cases because they have terrible defense for those difficulties even with safer options like a duelling sword.

# mystic ether Nope. Enemies roaming will always roam. New players get caught in bad positions ...

A new player is taught bad habits through shroudfield. You are undetectable to enemies when you're cloaked - and you outrun all enemies with any amount of sprint in your stamina bar. You can totally outrun all enemies with the speed boost provided from some of the Shroudfield nodes while it is active. Epic_Cole demonstrated this when he ran past hordes and past roaming enemies. You can do this in-game. Right now. You can Shroudfield and run ahead of your team and wait for the timer to run out. You will be confronted with the same reality Cole was confronted with. This reality is that by the time these roaming enemies, or enemies that naturally spawn, detected you and engaged with you your Shroudfield was off cooldown. This is fundamentally how he was able to break the loop of the game - he would run past all enemies currently abroad and run past all naturally spawned enemies. Most enemies that naturally spawn that roam are ranged enemies. Ranged enemies will not pursue you at the same speed a horde would. By the time the horde, or the rare melee Elite that was roaming, caught up with him his Shroudfield was back. Provided he was using knife, which let him totally run past most things, the point with aggro dumping still stands.

Meow's arguments should not be discarded. She's one of the best players in Darktide - she's played for about as long as I have (i've played since the closed beta) and was able to accomplish dropping 1.3 million damage in a H40 match with the old Eviscerator 3. This was old H40 as well - like old old, like the moldy old variety. You shouldn't discard her arguments because she's being "goofy" - she is on the same level as Epic_Cole in terms of player skill or Ainz.

Calling things in vidya a "crutch" is lazy, and under any reasonable definition, it includes so much.

usually it's called a crutch because the person laying the accusation is saying

"Item/Ability X permits the player to not interact with mechanic Y"

But this applies to so much in basically every game that it quickly dissolves in meaning. Most games provide the player with means to bypass certain mechanics. It's part of the experience of playing video games most of the time
