I dont think I'll do anymore changes once this is finished

#

I think this is only my 3rd redesign of Fisky

placid fiber
#

idk who fisky is x.x

#

I don't know a lot of things tho

Oh my oc

And also my online name

Ah

Never would have thought

Mk4 has better damage and excels at dropping targets with weakspots. The other does significantly less damage in favor of larger aoe stagger output. The newer mark falls behind the other but in my experience, plays very well into veteran melee builds up into auric difficulties. I'm still climbing havoc and have never used it there so I don't anything to say about either mark based on my experiences alone. Can't speak for zealot, psyker and arbites.

wraith halo
#

In case you missed that

Lmfao

Yeah it's just the bolt pistol but it explodes more

#

Unfortunately not as good as the bolter but explodes more

heady rapids
#

it's not *just the bolt pistol

#

you get less ammo

wraith halo
#

Which I've heard is very good

heady rapids
#

and a bad breakpoint weapon fails to meet even more breakpoints

mystic ether
sly phoenix
#

I like the boltpistol. If you see an elite you want dead it's fast to switch to and it will drop anything dead in a shot.

heady rapids
wraith halo
#

Maybe I give it a try then

#

Reload speed tho

sly phoenix
#

It's like a clunkier but harder hitting revolver with slower reload but more rounds on reserve

heady rapids
#

fatshark needs to meet their weapons quota i guess

#

otherwise idk what they were thinking making the bistol variant

sly phoenix
#

I only play malice and heresy though, so idk how it plays on the sweatier end of the game

heady rapids
#

and overall giving the new guns less ammo for some reason lmao

heady rapids
formal umbra
#

Yeah

blazing cosmos
#

Yeah anything up to heresy you just gotta worry about positioning and surroundings more then gunplay

heady rapids
#

@plush estuary do you know if any bistol bps got fucked with the scab hp change?

mystic ether
# sly phoenix I like the boltpistol. If you see an elite you want dead it's fast to switch to ...

Yeah. Although it really falls behind compared to the mk4, I've had an alright time using it against weaker specialists and elites. Headshots still work and at least the stagger it provides works well with setting up melee if that's just how you want to try it.

I've only used it on veteran so that brings in a whole lot of other things working to enable the weapon. Headshots can still drop things that weaker hp pools but it'll be noticeable against tanks enemies which is where melee, grenades, ability use matters there

sly phoenix
#

Honestly I was hoping the mk6 would trade damage for a faster reload or more capacity lol, the aoe is kinda ehhh

misty nova
plush estuary
#

nor did I find anything noteworthy when testing

heady rapids
#

aye

mystic ether
# sly phoenix Honestly I was hoping the mk6 would trade damage for a faster reload or more cap...

Matter of perspective imo and use of it. You don't have to use it if you just don't care about it in a real mission. Costs nothing to change blessings and go back to the other mark, other than dockets.

Veteran has enough going for it that things like reload speed and ammo reserves do not matter too much for me. I just apply the same judgment and execution I got for just about every weapon and go from there. Ended up liking playing with it so that just gives me another angle into liking bolt pistol period.

The next runner up using it in my mind is like the arbites and maybe psyker. In either case, the classes and talents themselves are doing more of the work there to not let the aoe mark be a hellhole of a time.

But that shit making waves

frosty herald

its so fun on bulwark

mystic ether
#

Well, the information that can illuminate that is but some several varieties of light reading. Maybe some video watching for a more comprehensive picture. But video games gonna keep having this happen the longer people keep buying into shit and the worse industry profit incentives raise the bar in terms of bullshit antics.

I mean the bigger culprit is the economics behind video games period but consumer actions also play a part. I don't endorse "voting with wallets" because that's just already stupid on its face cuz the consumer is not the final hand steering market pricing and "justification" for said pricing, just saying that the reality also involves folks just dropping the funds and engaging with the product in a way that can lead to more money gains for everyone that doesn't give a damn about video games as entertainment nor art.

frosty herald
#

i suppose its based off of this

sterile stone
#

I think the only reason they didn't full commit is because

#

These arent' custom characters

heady rapids

But pre-existing space marines

heady rapids

are they?

Yes

Depends on the project in my mind honestly. The ways that video games as an industry is handled are still available for people to learn. It just takes real time to develop that understanding compared to the internet's preference towards noticing a problem, but being distracted with shit that has nothing to do with anything that actually shines the light on the industry's powerful and the interconnected relationships it has with other industries and the broader economic model responsible for worsening it up to this point.

they also cant exactly make champion skins based on named marines

perhaps there is some hope for a lightning claw

lightning claws would require entirely unique animations

fuck!

frosty herald
#

i like the heroic bolt pistol

#

nothing special its just neat

heady rapids
#

it's not worth the ammo loss

#

it's miserable

glad ermine
#

Heroic bp is pretty alright, for being the powercrept bolt weapon (fuck primaris and their shitty little heavy bolt pistols)

heady rapids
#

it's already a niche heroic effect

frosty herald
heady rapids
#

and the stat tradeoff is fucked

#

genuinely the only maps you want that on are maybe extremis reinforcements?

#

and that's it

glad ermine
#

What the heroic heavy bolt pistol? Yeah that things fucked

#

I was talking about heroic normal bolt pistol

heady rapids
#

plasma is reliable enough

frosty herald
#

ohh yeah

mystic ether
frosty herald
#

heroic heavy bolt sucks ass

heady rapids
glad ermine
#

Plasma has AoE gunstrike so it is busted

heady rapids

disabler

glad ermine
#

Its p bad

frosty herald
#

massive ammo decrease so you can negate reinforcements

heady rapids
#

it's ass

glad ermine
#

Saber momento

heady rapids
#

i dont mind the perk itself

#

but the stat tradeoff

frosty herald
#

just give the pistol like a 2x headshot modifier

#

or a stagger when an enemy does an unblockable attack

#

so its sort of a parry pistol

visual stream
#

spess muhreen choo seems fun but every time I play it I get murderized by ranged enemies despite dodging and farming melee executions on my way to the ranged enemies

# visual stream The elite ones that take two whole bolt rifle mags to kill

I play sniper with a bolt pistol so I just shoot minoris tier enemies in the face, prep nades before engaging, etc. But my ranged options are also just more surgical for majoris and up. Haven't felt the differences in performance for everything yet since I'm still building up sniper prestige and my current loadout (bsr, bp, cb).

visual stream
heady rapids
#

what class are you playing

visual stream
#

Uhhh assault or vanguard? The one with the grapple that feelsbad

heady rapids
#

uhhh sooo

#

grapple gives you full iframes

#

and you can use lockon to check their hp to auto execute

frosty herald
#

Use the free grapple on grapple execute

heady rapids
#

it has 3 bars, one for 33% hp

frosty herald
#

Its the best perk for vanguard

mystic ether
#

More proactive dodging and movement can help.

With where I'm at in sm2, the game feels like just taking your chances and sending it asap is a better way to go about things against larger spreads of ranged units.

frosty herald
#

Also vanguard having armor regen on grapple

heady rapids
#

you also have

#

what's the thing called

the rifle

there used to be a time without spawn protection

It still is

and i have a clip where i just gun down the same guy like 4 or 5 times in a row

yes

Good thing I was already going to play vanguard next after unlocking full prestige perk count for sniper, maybe the violet tier weapons too.

deft badge

I find it insane the mp launched without that

#

Like you could actually farm the enemy team

#

On every map

heady rapids
#

yeah i mean

#

ig they had campaign as 1st priority

then everything else

deft badge

Its not even that campaign was first

cause no one expected the game to blow up

I agree

heady rapids

sm3 next week

Nah I think heavy is worse ngl, bulwark at range will just stare at you. They're a very close second tho imo.

heady rapids
#

release bulwark was even worse cause you could 1 tap people with the power fist LIGHT

sterile stone
#

Cause I lifted my shield as it shot and it gave me a riposte

heady rapids
#

you cant kill him

#

if you stop shooting

#

he just blasts you with plasma

deft badge
#

Fwiw my opinions were formed basically during release month

#

And I have not played since

heady rapids
#

yeah same here

mystic ether
#

I'm still getting used to block. Didn't know how it worked before someone got me hip last night with the whole block charge and melee.

Does vanguard have anything available to it that plays with block as mechanic besides just doing high octane melee shenanigans?

heady rapids
#

bulwark is always gonna be infinitely more annoying

deft badge

Im ngl my solution to both was to play assault and drop melta bombs on them

cause pvp also have frags

both

deft badge

Ty

heady rapids

but also not locked sets

#

causeeeeeeeeee

#

a lot of champion skin parts are also available as separate cosmetics

heady rapids

but aside from that everything is customizable

#

except diff armor types like phobos and shit

frosty herald
#

all of them are fully customizable in their respective armor type

deft badge
#

Gotcha

heady rapids
#

yeah you can take them apart now

frosty herald
#

you cant use the salamander champion parts on heavy or tacticus armor

deft badge
#

Im only curious cause I always run the DW arm

#

So they're doubly not worth it to me if I can't do that

frosty herald
#

only the black templar champion legs can be used on both tacticus and gravis armor

heady rapids
#

just open the game and look for yourself

#

would be easier that way

#

it will tell you what dlc gets you what part

deft badge
frosty herald
#

however the devs are adding entirely new armor parts like the space wolf shoulder so it can be used on tacticus and gravis armor

Uninstalled it cause friends asked to play dbd

Because it is genuinely the only game in its niche

glossy nimbus

it was never made as an IP

Im entirely sure they do tbh

heady rapids

deft badge

Like I'm entirely sure its not so dead you can't get a match most of the time

long oasis

like conclave

frosty herald
#

Were never getting a chaos op in sm2 unless GW allows saber to make an operation for them

heady rapids
#

PLEASE I BED I NEED THIS IN PVE

deft badge
solar gorge
#

gw would never allow it

#

ur only option is modding

deft badge
#

Is the customization limited to the Warbands that were already in the game?

heady rapids
#

good question tbh

#

they probably don't have any new heraldry

#

idk if they can use loyalist colours

deft badge
#

Alright, that still sucks but it's better, thank you

heady rapids
#

I don't have the pts installed

deft badge
#

Given the choice I'd make all 6 classes simply look like them

#

Iirc none of the classes were WB by default

frosty herald
#

We have night lords world eaters death guard alpha legion iron warriors and the black legion

deft badge
#

I can live with World Eaters

#

Thanks

frosty herald
#

Funnilly enough we dont have emperor's children

deft badge
#

They're my second favorite

#

Trust me

frosty herald
#

Even though there are still loyalist emperors children

deft badge
#

I think its funny too

#

SoTP fans when they're called EC again

solar gorge
#

the only good world eater scheme is the pre-heresy one

it iz what it is

heady rapids
#

I guess you could cook something

deft badge
#

Tbh it would pmo i can still see the other heraldry

#

I don't like using the UM coded cosmetics either

Cause I don't really enjoy the UM

solar gorge

yeah

sullen forge

@hard nexus

formal umbra

I genuinely dont get why they made it so hard to make Your Dudes in the customization

solar gorge

unless u ran basically no bling, you'd look like an UM

formal umbra

GW

deft badge
formal umbra
#

GW was a lot more lenient back then

deft badge
solar gorge
#

like i wanted to make a iron hand so basically no bling allowed cuz it's all UM

formal umbra
#

Their Brand Image is really important to them because they're corporate psychos

frosty herald

Which is funny

deft badge
solar gorge
#

this was my assault

heady rapids

assault not allowed to get World eaters cuz fuck him ig

deft badge

Its better but it still sucks

deft badge
solar gorge

it woulf fit well

deft badge
#

Can make everything a fuckin night lord tho

frosty herald
#

Saber is probs gonna use the carcharodon for heresy era armor and the raptors for more military armor

deft badge
#

Maybe tbh

#

Im not sure how Carchs are equipment wise post Primaris

#

Ik GW really does prefer primaris nowadays so I do kinda doubt that, would make me happy tho

People meme about slaanesh being the haha sex god when there's more to it if you go looking

But I've read DG and Nurgle books

And that mf really is haha poop joke the god

Nurgle also has bad rep because of the same oversimplification that Slaanesh has

Yup, the pursuit of perfection

The average Slaanesh "fan" constantly talks about how they'd wanna be tied down and whipped and stuff but they don't really mean it

Striving to be the greatest in all facets you partake in

I absolutely adore the actual slaanesh tbh

visual stream
#

Not only that, if that was the type of Slaanesh activity they happened across, much much worse than that would happen

They're such little dorkazoids

Hey, its been a few months since I last played and I missed the big balance patch.

What did the changes do for Zealot?

It also needs 1 less wound for max effect

Rashad with Marty is crazy

What playstyles does Zealot have late game?

Trying to suggest a class for a friend new to darktide and its hard because they changed a shitload while I've been away

solar gorge
#

marty haters just love telling on themselves they take 5k dmg a match on average

heady rapids
#

I think your chances of getting into a pub havoc are lower on zealot now

spare talon
#

I was killing bulwarks in like 2 seconds with light spam dclaw 7 on marty with the event stim buff

#

It was comical

heady rapids
#

cause of mass hysteria

deft badge
#

I love this take on EC, the body augs on the ears to take in sound better, the mutated eyes to take in more visuals, the ungloved hand to feel the sensations of war. Absolutely peak art.

#

Alright, I'm done now.

lord of decay more like lord of farts LMAO

idk I found the excerpt on reddit

Literally bro

I like the concept of Nurgle as a death god

visual stream

"Farts liquidly"

deft badge

But in practice

long oasis
#

yea

visual stream
long oasis
#

I feel like there just arent a lot of ways to characterize his domain compared to the other gods

visual stream
#

Tbf nurglings are the most whimsical and stupid aspect of Nurgle so like

long oasis
#

its either zombie or plague that makes you shit your appendix out

visual stream
#

I could see that being fine representation but ehhh

deft badge

It just felt so childish tbh

nop

That's certainly a good angle to take it

long oasis
deft badge
# long oasis nop

They're a nurglite warband that brews up real fucked up chemical weapons to accelerate the end of the universe, they're my favorite take on Nurgle

long oasis
#

and most of the time the bl writers are gonna want a negative slant

#

they look pretty cool

#

I like the leg armor

visual stream
deft badge

They're neat, spooky enemies

Nurgle is insidious and kinda like a toxic relationship

This is why I hate the French

long oasis

didnt play the rations one but it looked pretty engaging for the playerbase

visual stream
#

Actually I hate the whole 'marines on Atoma' idea but playing as a plague SM and watching the last alive smyker keep trying to smite me

#

That would probably kill me

deft badge
#

Tbh I think we can absolutely kill a plague marine

sterile stone
deft badge
#

At least vet and their infinite kraks can

sterile stone
#

You can kill anything with enough explosives

deft badge
#

Nah that's apt

#

Ive killed marines as mortals in the FFG games

#

You normally explode them to death or set a trap

long oasis
#

rn those mission finales are boring af

visual stream

Krak, plasma, bolter, psword/falch, relic blade, thunder hammer, most of ogryn's melees, brain rupture, etc.

I got magnet grenades

GET FUCKED IDIOT

deft badge

Tbh

#

Marines are really scary but they cant be in video games

the prime way kasrkin dealt with csm was to dogpile them and have some guy pull a krak

they are ultimately mortal and fallible

It's almost like marines, chaos or not, have dumb idiot macho brain genetically hard-wired into them

The rejects are just built different

For one, they have names

sterile stone

If you wanna go by technicality

upbeat nymph
#

And a good handful of them aren't wearing helmets

sterile stone
#

The canonical reject group is like 8 dudes

long oasis
#

mine wears a helmet

scenic drift
#

all the helmets look uncool

long oasis
#

because shes smart unlike my psyker

sterile stone
#

And they've managed to do something an entire army is failing to achieve

deft badge

Who would win 1 elysian with kraks or a 10,000 year old veteran of the long war

scenic drift
#

so no helmet is cool

long oasis
#

53rd helmet is nice

scenic drift
#

and cool is immortality

long oasis
#

one glowing lens

#

they really want zealots to have one eye

deft badge
#

Right?

#

And its never consistent

#

Sometimes its the left eye, sometimes its the right

long oasis
#

the penance helmet is two lenses right

sterile stone
sterile stone
#

So it's just one glowing eye

long oasis
#

the 21st hood is nice as well

#

gas mask

sterile stone
#

But yeah

#

The rejects/acolytes

#

Whatever

#

Could in theory fuck up a chaos SM

long oasis
#

we have an ogryn

sterile stone
#

They def aren't normal ass people regardless of what the glue drinkers say

long oasis
#

and a pretty strong psyker

heady rapids
#

they could with a proper setup

long oasis
#

and a guard veteran whos probably fought genestealers

heady rapids
#

probably not in a fair battle tho

long oasis
#

and some random dude who can literally do miracles

visual stream
#

Every class has a ton of options to deal with one

sterile stone
#

Lore don't matter when we were expected to die ages ago and fucking killed off wolfer's chain of command, the same chain of command that's been murdering dozens of other reject groups.

scenic drift
#

just need anti-armor options

visual stream
#

Multiple of those options are possible to one shot them in-lore

scenic drift
#

and the marine goes pop

long oasis
#

like dueling sword

#

when is the nerf

heady rapids
#

yeah but quoting tongs here

carmine lance
#

Im curious tho, do we ever canonically stop being considered rejects

sterile stone
#

Yea

mighty root
#

Probably never

heady rapids
#

lore accurate marines can't be fun video game enemies

sterile stone
#

You literally become a inducted member of the warband once you hit 30

long oasis
#

after trust 30 we are officially part of the warband

#

as an acolyte

visual stream
#

Not inquisitors but agents

carmine lance
visual stream
#

Considering they still send you on suicide missions

mighty root
#

Our rejects are also op

long oasis
#

doesnt stop them from treating us like complete shit

sterile stone
#

It woulda helped with immersion and world building

upbeat nymph
#

Members of the inquisition but not an inquisitor

sterile stone
#

But I guess FS slept on that aspect

visual stream
#

Unless lore-wise at trust 30, you just stop going on those missions?

long oasis
#

you become an auric level operative

#

or something

#

so youre still on suicide missions but youre paid better

#

in scrip

sterile stone
carmine lance
heady rapids
long oasis
#

that system was cool

#

but like it was obvious they couldnt keep it up

carmine lance
#

Yeah…

sterile stone
#

Who know's if FS would care to bring the VAs in to do voicelines regarding your character's status asa acolyte post 30.

long oasis
#

thats why they removed the red war and forsaken

sterile stone
#

The only thing I've seen in game wise that changed was Kral saying only auric ops get augments

visual stream
sterile stone
#

And they removed that line

mighty root
#

Our vets are like slightly above tempust scions, psykers can do 3 masteries at the same time and have a ridiculously high tolerance to warp, our zealots are absolutely insanely physically fit and go toe to toe with deamonhost, our oggys are smart

heady rapids
#

I know I wouldn't

sterile stone
mighty root
#

I forgot the psyker levels

sterile stone

The Mortis Trials exist because I guess Grendy wants to eventually promote us beyond auric ops into mortis ops
