zealot-class

[full nebula]

people dont use the knife right, lot of people just run around doing heavy attacks on everything, gotta use special attack punch and mix it up

selectively stunning things is very statisfying

[hexed igloo]

It's fun I just wish all the heavies were strikedowns in the form of downward stab or straight forward stab

[full nebula]

im hoping the new shanks are all horizontal stabs

gimmie shanky shank

[hexed igloo]

Please I hate the shitass slice

[burnt bobcat]

theyre updating the combat knife?

interestin

[full nebula]

no theres a new one coming with the new class

[burnt bobcat]

OH

[hexed igloo]

Sharpened toothbrush

[burnt bobcat]

this makes sense

[hexed igloo]

Candy cane that you've licked to a fine point

[full nebula]

honestly i almost never use light attack spam for clearing with the mk3 lmao

i just continuously do push/push attack combos

i like the 6 moveset, corrects to stab with special attack, very statisfying

[burnt bobcat]

okay i need a talent tree for precog+uncanny knife now lol. hrm

[full nebula]

crit side of the tree and fotf for normal board

or critside with shroudfield for normal board monstrous specials

I don't use martyrdom really but im sure its good

[burnt bobcat]

full transparency i dont know jack shi about talent tree building, i just learn to use the builds i find/beg for

... throwing cheese at the wall

how does shroudfield really work? aurics or havocs alike you have a lot of beef youre trying to kill. its not like you get shroud back instantly right?

fotf at least has multiple charges

[wraith halo]

Shroud has more utility than charge in higher and higher tier content

[full nebula]

^

pulling revives ect

[burnt bobcat]

hum. i guess i ought to learn it if its just better later on

[wraith halo]

It also can be built easily for guaranteed crits

Especially with backstab talents

[full nebula]

too bad backstabbing anything smaller than an a ogryn is annoying most of the time

[burnt bobcat]

cheese at the wall...

[wraith halo]

At least most non ogryn enemies aren't as dangerous

[full nebula]

fotf is a lot better overall for combat, way better cooldown ect. That said it probably doesn't scale well with havoc, but havoc is also doodoo so that tracks

[burnt bobcat]

time to kill actually looks like dog nvm

[full nebula]

not sure about now but as far as i know too zealot was pretty much relegated to being a chorus provider

in high havoc

[wraith halo]

I haven't really used ij at all so I can't comment

[burnt bobcat]

ergh. i genuinely refuse to use chorus

[full nebula]

just play auric, havoc is poop

[wraith halo]

It's true honestly

[full nebula]

then you can play anything as long as you have a decent skill level

[wraith halo]

Hopefully next season will be less

[full nebula]

they'll probably rotate modifers with the update, but its still not likely to be good lol

[burnt bobcat]

so shroudfield... is it maybe still better for difficult auric missions?

[wraith halo]

Yes

Most people would say so

But that doesn't mean fotf is bad

[full nebula]

any ability where you can stand around and not get aggro is going to be better by default yes

[wraith halo]

Or that you can't use it

[full nebula]

fotf is 1000x more fuin

fun*

[burnt bobcat]

okay ok aight
i wanna be an effective boio (as long as that damn chorus aint involved)

[wraith halo]

I'm the opposite I wish I could run chorus but it's so bad

[burnt bobcat]

no i do too. but its so bad.

so i refuse.

[full nebula]

i don't really run it either, but mostly because i like mobility stuff

I did for a long time back in the day, but its been like a year probably

[burnt bobcat]

anyway for like, super difficult auric, what would be going on here?

[full nebula]

oir longer

one sec

fuck

formatting smh

[wraith halo]

I wish I had my build

[full nebula]

Heres a build I use in auric that someone will come say is bad

[burnt bobcat]

thats not shroud! lol

[full nebula]

o

this is more fun

[burnt bobcat]

what about dis shi

[misty nova]

You can drop Invigorating Revelation

[burnt bobcat]

oh wait i messed up, meant to take the one above that

master crafted

with master crafted is it otherwise good?

Nice.

[full nebula]

bruh again formatting wtf

nvidias screencapture software is fucking garbage

OK

[burnt bobcat]

whoa

[full nebula]

this one drops a lot of the backstab shit because theres no backstab cooldown, and backstabbing is actually inconsistent and annoying as fuck

honestly just a stupid design mechanic

[burnt bobcat]

oh. uhm. but that was half the point.

[full nebula]

welcome to fatshark

you should know this

[burnt bobcat]

no i mean. i was gonna figure out backstabbing... kinda

[full nebula]

honestly its almost a meme imo

its so much easier to access a head than the back of an enemy, and it only increases

[visual stream]

Backstabbing is fine

Just use the right weapons for it and learn how to manouver attack angles and camera angling to get backstab headshots

[full nebula]

[south prism]

[sterile basalt]

MSF is kinda troll if u don’t min max backstabbing
The toughness + DR node is way more versatile

[tame sluice]

chorus is bad

source: my zealot's name

[lunar herald]

I was leaning towards FotF. Is Chorus actually bad?

[tame sluice]

It's the most popular zealot ability by far and I'm in quite the minority in thinking it's one of if not the worst active ability in the game

If you are not completely and utterly incapable of playing the game without golden toughness it will do you few favors

[carmine lance]

oh yeah I hate using chorus

it's fucking boring

not even that good as a stagger, because it's an aura

[tame sluice]

It's very good stagger for 5 seconds

[carmine lance]

me when the gunner shreds me at range

[tame sluice]

5 seconds in which you are doing nothing

[copper hawk]

Longer recharge

Worse tness regen and golden tness gen

Long cooldown

[tame sluice]

which it is the only staggering ability in the game that you cannot capitalize on yourself

[copper hawk]

Short duration

Only minimal stagger

When compared to Voice of Command on vet

[carmine lance]

oops, I'm holding my holy relic! can't even dodge I don't think! time to die I guess!

[copper hawk]

VoC is better in every way

[tame sluice]

you can't dodge but I think you are actually fully invincible while chorus is active

[carmine lance]

I prefer shroud or fotf because it lets me go fuck up what's annoying me

[copper hawk]

It used to be the only ult with a mandatory node

[tame sluice]

please

[tame sluice]

like anybody was running a single FoTF charge

[copper hawk]

Meow did

[carmine lance]

that's meow

[copper hawk]

She's probably top 5 darktide players

[full nebula]

the coolest thing about chorus is you'd figure youd be able to use it in an emergency, but it wont stagger until the second or third pulse

[carmine lance]

I'd rather be barred entry to public havoc lobbies than run chorus

i will play how I want and in a way I am good at

and that is throwing myself into hordes before they can become an issue for my team

and coming out on top

[visual stream]

If Outlaw is executed well he will probably be the most likeable

Honestly all of them have potential but I'm excited for Outlaw most and Anarchist second

im avoiding flamer because of the unwieldiness

so bolter is vomit inducing too mafraid

[full nebula]

you can use throwing knives to skip the animation for switching weapons

you just toss a throwing knife as soon as you do the switch and it switches instantly

Also skips the end of reloads, if you do it right as soon as the mag is done you can skip the rest

[warm nimbus]

Lemme see a great sword build!

I wanna do some auric shit, and I don’t care about guns

[runic grotto]

https://i.vgy.me/Lq9HPd.png

defensive perk above abilities is pure preference

I just really like anticipation

for weapons use greatsword mk6 and something like recon XII with infernus or vraks

[untold dove]

Not auto including the 15% elite damage node in the build framework is criminal.

Nvm he's only lvl 20

[runic grotto]

I would if they weren't level 20

[untold dove]

Still would take it over the replenishment talent imo

[runic grotto]

there are more important things to take

eh

not that big of a deal

it has the most important ones

playable

not worth minmaxing builds not at level 30 since you spend very little time there

[untold dove]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/a06163d3-b1fa-4aac-a2d4-3aea5b3047c7/garbage-disposal-crusher?utm_medium=website&utm_source=gameslantern&utm_campaign=share_button

[runic grotto]

what's up with that tax node taken under fotf

Is there nothing better than 10% damage?

[untold dove]

Nope

[runic grotto]

Sure +25% toughness replenishment would be better

or

you know

enduring faith

[untold dove]

You don't CRIT enough for uptime without scourge

[runic grotto]

I don't trust you

Normal people, just take +25% toughness replenishemnt instead of the tax node

[untold dove]

There's an argument for desperation over it

[untold dove]

Sure but I don't feel the replenishment is necessary

I've ran this in h40 multiple times.

[runic grotto]

with the amount of dr and tdr you have?

Replenishment is so good

[untold dove]

If your toughness breaks no replenishment is going to stop you from popping until death immediately

And if your toughness does not break the replenishment barely matters.

[runic grotto]

It makes you take a lot less chip damage

[untold dove]

I don't take chip damage.

Melee chip is like 1 or 2 damage unless you facetank 6 ragers.

[runic grotto]

1 or 2 damage if you miss 2 hits

the more you miss, the better replenishemnt is.

And I feel like with h40 and the amount of ranged damage you take, it would make it even better

no?

[untold dove]

Feel free to disagree I'm not saying either opinion isn't valid I just feel the damage is more needed on the crusher.

[runic grotto]

I haven't played h40 ever since rotten armor + garden + stims became a thing

I'd like to disagree but you're clearly more knowledgable

Just can't believe that +10% melee damage would be better

[untold dove]

As I said if you feel you need the replenishment go for it.

I just don't.

Hp as a resource is irrelevant on zealot as long as you're not dead.

I've played this build on 1 hp max corruption for over 5 minutes and didn't take a single chip damage.

Replenishment is doing nothing in that scenario but the damage might very well keep me alive at that point

taco stans food shenanigans

[lost panther]

so dueling sword with uncanny right? is thrust better over crit for anti-armor? (given im using blazing piety)

[misty nova]

CRIT probably still better

[lost panther]

🤺 i refuse to wait a few seconds on this stance, feeling all vulnerable

[misty nova]

The thought process is that you can throw 2 heavies by the time it takes to charge 1 full heavy

[lost panther]

i was thinking the same thing, and the added crit makes me proc my cooldowns faster

tho the 60% strength seem viable? idk if that stat is also affected by crit

but then again its a gamble, you'd prolly didnt get a crit on a full charge and if it did theres no guarantee the next charged attacks do

[flint sable]

Strength increase attack damage, finesse increase crits

[lost panther]

gotcha, thanks!

Every time we got on an elevator I’m revving it up.

I like to think it boosts morale.

[mystic ether]

Sliding 360°'s playing some heavy bass metal

Would rather have a different sound system if I could ever afford/make it myself. Quality headsets are nice but I like the full body resonance on heavy bass and dope drums.

Well at that point I'd rather step into a pit than play darktide but that's hy I like zealot anyway.

If you weapon swap after revving it will play the full sound but will be able to be revved again

So Rev swap swap, Rev swap swap Rev

You can do this while sliding so no movement loss

moving ur camera is the hidden tech that makes you the best gamer. If you do high cleave attacks it's optimal to do 360 spins every swing

[heavy edge]

Why use crusher when you can thunder hammer

Leave crusher for poor arbitrator

[long oasis]

because they dont do the same thing

[heavy edge]

Last I checked they both smash shit

[ripe quest]

Arbites stole it from Zealot, they never should've gotten it. Just give them a 2h Arbites Maul instead, keep the balance of the two weapons separate so u can tune the stagger stuff on Arbites a bit better

[heavy edge]

Too much work for fatfish

[ripe quest]

one does big boom every once in a while and the other does medium boom more often, huge difference.

[heavy edge]

It’s like tits

It’s still tits

Big or smoll

But I see your point tho

[mystic ether]

Oh yeah that one was learned all the way back in vt2.

I'm talking about like purely self-indulgent swings with camera movement. Idea is that after fotf my zealot gets a little too into it with the crusher specifically.

[heavy edge]

I did in Chivalry medieval warfare

Zwrihander ballet

[ripe quest]

ye I do that with some combos, the optimal stuff on Evis makes me wave my camera around for whatever reason

[mystic ether]

Or uh hitting the 180 on a charged strike down heavy because I know where the crusher going for the overhead is.

[plush estuary]

The faster you spin the more the evis shreds

Shrimple as

[mystic ether]

I like the gore shower too much

[heavy edge]

I can’t play with anything else after discovering thunder hammer and stealth deletes demonhosts and monstrosities

🙁

[mystic ether]

Shroudfield thammer an eternal classic in this game.

Bonk Shade Kerillian

[heavy edge]

People keep telling me to try tac axe but I just don’t feel the vibe from it

[mystic ether]

I also just like being good with everything I'm interested in. I got my preferences, but I'll use anything with anything unless it's total garbage.

And I like the idea of my zealot being a weaponmaster.

An Edgemaster from Soulcalibur but in 40K.

[sterile stone]

@glad ermine What's the next investment?

[visual stream]

A hammer and a wrecking ball both smash shit but you wouldn't use both for both tools' purposes

[placid fiber]

cheese

[visual stream]

Comparing thammer and crusher to "just like tits, they're the same" makes every weapon in the game just like tits

[mystic ether]

Unsure if that heroic heavy plasma is the heavy plasma but the heroic power glaive not too bad.

[heavy edge]

Tits

Big or small

[mystic ether]

If you don't like it you don't like it. I enjoy it because I've always liked the finesse mobility weapons

[placid fiber]

yesn't

[plush estuary]

Do people compare hammer and crusher just because they turn on?

[placid fiber]

idk

[plush estuary]

They are complete opposite weapons

[placid fiber]

Yeah

[plush estuary]

I wonder why it's so common

[placid fiber]

It's like comparing the heavy sword to the knife

[visual stream]

well thammer and crusher both boom

and heavy sword and knife both shink

[placid fiber]

only that comparison makes more sense I think...

[heady rapids]

blunt weapon

[sterile stone]

Was looking at that and the burst fire bolt pistol

[heady rapids]

empowered swing

=

same weapon

[visual stream]

power sword=thammer

[placid fiber]

duh

[heady rapids]

blunt weapon

read mf

[heady rapids]

please read

[placid fiber]

I did

I just selectively read

[mystic ether]

Blunt weapon that turns blue when a button is pressed.

Flattening of nuance 101.

[mystic ether]

More honesty than most.

[visual stream]

I replied to the part where the equivalence makes sense

YOU read

[heady rapids]

nuh uh

[visual stream]

folding shovel=thammer

there, better comparison

[heady rapids]

it's not empowered

[placid fiber]

I thought we already knew this smh my head

[visual stream]

I would call that empowered

[placid fiber]

I mean what does folding the shovel do to its damage?

[mystic ether]

I got both and I like both but I can see where the burst fire isn't too great in some circumstances. I generally prefer being able to get my semi-auto headshots with as much control as possible.

If you're not really leveraging perfect dodges and just use a block combat blade well, go for it. If not, it made my sniper antics a lot more widely spread in terms of how many damage steroids on defense I gave myself.

[unreal hull]

Makes a flat impact point a sharp pointy one

[carmine lance]

Trying to think of a good way to explain each vermintide class to the friend I’m getting to give the game a try. Because mechanically, each class kinda starts as a generalist, right? I guess except for kerillian, she seems kinda ranged focused in her first class

[heady rapids]

ehh

kinda

[visual stream]

Bardin=disappointing until you unlock any single one of his other classes

[heady rapids]

fym

rv is one of the strongest bosskillers

[lament blaze]

Base bardin is so ass to play

[visual stream]

You run the short king archer?

Idc

It's boring

[plush estuary]

Every class has a melee/ranged/mixed/specialist career

[lament blaze]

Leveling bardin sucks. Though to be fair leveling anything in vt2 or dt sucks..

[unreal hull]

You'd have to explain each career individually.
Otherwise it is simply
Dwarf
Elf
Pyro
Soldier
Witchhunter

[plush estuary]

I can make a list if where ever career falls but I am busy

[carmine lance]

Yeah that’s why I’m not sure how to really explain what seperates them lmao

[placid fiber]

doing? :3

[heady rapids]

rv and waystalker are bosskillers

[carmine lance]

Other than flavor

[mystic ether]

Ask them what they want to do is a bit easier imo

[lament blaze]

Explain by voice lines

[heady rapids]

you could also build 1st sienna into a boss killer

[carmine lance]

Yeah that’s true actually

[plush estuary]

Weapons available and abilities

[lament blaze]

And instruct your friend to never play Kerillian

[mystic ether]

They can if they want.

[placid fiber]

meanwhile shade is the ranged specialty

[lament blaze]

You are part of the problem

🗿

[mystic ether]

I just don't need approval from strangers on the internet to enjoy myself lol

[lament blaze]

Yes you do

[mystic ether]

The empty cool guy stuff is corny to me. If they want to play kerillian they can play kerillian.

If they want to play mustache wax kruber they can do that

[lament blaze]

If you didn't then you wouldn't cross your arms and be grumpy

[mystic ether]

Nor would I have steam coming out of my head

And uh

Idk

Fire?

[heady rapids]

make sure they dont touch ib @carmine lance

like unironically

[visual stream]

Why?

[carmine lance]

Ib?

[heady rapids]

ironbreaker

[carmine lance]

Alright

[mystic ether]

Just ask your friend what kind of thing they want to be able to do. Like what would they want to be

[heady rapids]

it's gonna teach them every bad habit that exist

[visual stream]

True

[heady rapids]

it's like playing smyker

suddenly you switch off and have to play the game

wow...

[placid fiber]

this is true

as someone with 2k hours in vt2 i can confirm it

[heady rapids]

it's like THE crutch class

nothing in darktide even comes close

[visual stream]

It's that much of a crutch?

[heady rapids]

extremely

[visual stream]

I know the damage mitigation is stupid but even with taunt that doesn't detract from it?

[heady rapids]

you ignore specials

fully

ignore most of the dmg

[unreal hull]

Dwarf -
Melee, ranged, tank, gun
Elf -
Backstabbing, dodging, shooting, bush
Soldier -
Tank, ranged, vet1.0, slayer2.0
Witchhunter -
Zealot1.0, gun, critz, slayer 3.0
Pyro -
Ranged, burn, psyker1.0, necromancer

[placid fiber]

the taunt gives you 50% dr, gromril pushes back enemies with a talent point, etc etc

[unreal hull]

Fuck that too too long to type

[heady rapids]

he also has trollhammer

[mystic ether]

Idc about crutch shit but it does have like four or so failsafe defensive talents.

[placid fiber]

Ironbreaker is more of a crutch than dogbleed arby when dogbleed was op

[visual stream]

I'm a dual wield slayer liker
or I was back when I played

[unreal hull]

I'm a 2h slayer

[heady rapids]

im a 2h slayer too

[unreal hull]

Bardin is my spririt guide

[mystic ether]

Ib is genuinely the tank of the game as in the one that plays with aggro directly the most.

[visual stream]

It looked like 2h slayer was anti-synergistic with his kit?

[heady rapids]

i love the gaxe and the uhh

the cockhammer

[heady rapids]

no

[visual stream]

Which confused me unless I wasn't looking at it the right way

[heady rapids]

you just take the 2h talent

you have 3 talents

+dmg on 2h weps
+dmg on dual wield
+crit i think

or some shit

[visual stream]

I forget what made me think that but I'll take your word for it

[unreal hull]

I used Ghammer and pickaxe until the released chammer

[mystic ether]

Slayer is just about doink damage, movement and crit shenanigans.

[heady rapids]

you just pick a different talent

[unreal hull]

Slayer is about 100% uptime on your career skill

[heady rapids]

slayer is about solo diving a patrol and dying

[unreal hull]

Only if bad

[heady rapids]

if you live

you failed as a slayer

[visual stream]

I know of those but there were other talents that seemed to encourage dual wield

[unreal hull]

I must be a terrible slayer then

[heady rapids]

nah you dreamt it ig

there's just general utility/dmg talents

this is the only row that's related to wep choice

[placid fiber]

I failed miserably

[visual stream]

Name your Steam account Lore Accurate Slayer and kill yourself on a boss or huge enemy mass at the first opportunity

[heady rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/vermintide-2-warhammer-vermintide-slayer-bardin-gif-15875181584785943192

[unreal hull]

Thay had to be the tamest gamelay I've ever seen.

You could see space in between enemies

[distant lagoon]

then just don't?

why bother

their abilities explain it all really

[mystic ether]

@carmine lance But anyway. Ib is nice for people that want to achieve being a tank in the traditional mmo sense. You get to play with aggro, have crazy mitigation and plenty of utility to just give yourself ways to control and resist shit.

The problem that can come with it is when a newer player goes all in on it without also taking to heart how to just handle themselves without as many benefits compared to other classes.

The same can be said about kerillian but in the sense of how she has a monopoly on crazy good dodge counts for her weapons and a pretty explosive kit the majority of the time.

Walls will always matter though, so it's best to actually learn how to play with one's fundamentals as the focus rather than exclusively relying on what has the person not feeling the wall too heavily.

[sterile stone]

Last time I saw the category for this game it was nothing but Korean players, got me wondering how popular VT2 is in Asia.

[visual stream]

I see what it was
It seems very light but it's about trophy hunter stacking and the talent that gives CDR at max trophy hunting

Dual wield weapons, plus the attack speed in dual wield talent, is better into trophy hunting and that cdr talent

[distant lagoon]

When i was playing slayer sometimes i would ult into patrols

[visual stream]

Sounds like both work though

[heady rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/picklejuicelover69-tree-watermelon-brainrot-gif-8501863972010735638

[placid fiber]

Mine was solo cuz I left the private game box marked

I got 50% crit chance on a crit lightning orange hammer lol

[distant lagoon]

oh teah vermintide is free

[heady rapids]

it still stacks easy enough on 2hs

[mystic ether]

Yeah. You're just a zerker warrior if that makes sense. Barbarian-esque.

You're able to dual wield or use two handed. The main thing is is that you don't have a ranged option save throwing axes for slayer. Melee specialist

[distant lagoon]

20k players playing right now

[heady rapids]

like cmon

it's slayer

it's the attack speed class

[glad ermine]

everything else is a sidegrade, some better sidegrades than the following. plasma is fairly nice, pistol is a direct upgrade to basic bolt pistol yes, but it gets shadowed by heavy bolt pistol still (not bad either way), heroic knife is alright, it's whatever, will get better next patch, multi melta is currently super mid, wait for next patch.

pick your poison

[placid fiber]

but dude... +10% crit chance... coghammer... throwing axes...

just win

[visual stream]

If you, Idk, read I said it seems to only lightly affect synergy

[heady rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/monkey-gif-18033786

[placid fiber]

I was just shilling my crit chance build lol

[heady rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/did-not-read-lol-gif-13194398

[carmine lance]

That’s honestly entirely fair

[unreal hull]

If you're playing slayer and aren't pissed off every time your teammates get close and steal your kills you probably aren't meant to be a slayer

As a slayer you should see a patrol and think MINE

[heady rapids]

the skater

[unreal hull]

Lmao I type like an ogryn

[heady rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-on-skateboard-cat-skateboard-cat-spinning-spinning-gif-21095646

[mystic ether]

Np. Just ask them what vibe they want and go have fun n all.

Vt2 is pretty good about it.

[placid fiber]

Noooo! Fun isn't allowed!!!

[mystic ether]

And if you happen to have dlc content and they join your lobby, they'll get access to the same thing.

[placid fiber]

Forgotten relics/dlc careers: Checkmate

[mystic ether]

Yeah that's like playable characters, not missions.

Wait what's forgotten relics? I don't think I recognize the name

[placid fiber]

A weapons pack

[unreal hull]

Good weapons

[mystic ether]

Oh that one yeah

[placid fiber]

it gives the trollhammer

[carmine lance]

Honestly what I think I’ll do

I don’t play vermintide as much to feel like it’s worth buying subclasses and weapon packs, but hopefully that changes

Only additional money I’ve spent is pigmar

[vagrant spruce]

so I need to take at least 25% health loss in order to maintain martyrdom? Essentially avoiding getting healed as long as possible?

[carmine lance]

I had to get the fucking pig head for saltzpyre

[mystic ether]

It's up to the person tbh. The base game gives you enough sauce to not warrant it.

[unreal hull]

That was the only money I spent for a long time, I now have all the dlc careers

[mystic ether]

But if you want different weapons and subclasses you have to buy the relevant dlc.

[carmine lance]

Very fair

[carmine lance]

Yeah there’s just a lot to buy all at once

[placid fiber]

You can play with any amount of marty buffs. Some 1 shots/breakpoints might require a certain amount of stacks, but, there's no rule saying you have to play at near 0% hp the entire time

if you get killed those bonus stats do jack shit

so play where you do best

[carmine lance]

I will say, playing vermintide zealot is very interesting

[sterile stone]

Shame I won't get engineer based class in darktide

[vagrant spruce]

right mostly just trying to weigh if I want to lean into marty, is all.

[placid fiber]

Marty is extremely powerful

[carmine lance]

Since it’s literally just prototype martyrdom

[heady rapids]

its martyrdom but good

it's not a prototype

it's the other way around lmao

[carmine lance]

Damn

[unreal hull]

Facts

[carmine lance]

Whats a good weapon to use with vermintide zealot

[heady rapids]

flail basegame

[unreal hull]

I use 2h or flail

[carmine lance]

Ive been using flail

[mystic ether]

Wouldn't bet entirely on that guarantee. The tide games already like cycling things in from one another. I can see an engineer class happening. Just dunno when.

[carmine lance]

Just need to get used to getting the horde clear heavy swings

[distant lagoon]

Falchion + axe is op

[dull iris]

look up royale w cheese guides

[heady rapids]

it's dlc

[mystic ether]

It can definitely do a lot. I personally hate it but that's just preferences

[carmine lance]

Fair

[distant lagoon]

lol

lmao even

most braindead class in the whole game

[lament blaze]

That's what makes it interesting

[heady rapids]

btw you can ult cancel your iron heart passive

so it doesnt go on cooldown

but it's frame perfect

[carmine lance]

I mean coming from the perspective it’s martyrdom before martyrdom

[placid fiber]

[mystic ether]

Vt2 zealot gets into its flow very easily when you're just playing solid. Honestly something that happens with a lot of classes in that game but they can't cycle not being able to die as their class objective.

[unreal hull]

I completed the entirety of the story on veteran difficulty with zealot By holding w and almost never attacking

[heady rapids]

just use hm

another equally braindead career

[mystic ether]

Hm is just basic lol

[distant lagoon]

martyrdom less safe

Vt Zealot just has infinite health on top of damage

[mystic ether]

Hm is merc kruber by its own standard.

[carmine lance]

So darktide zealot if you take holy rev

[mystic ether]

Show up, get into your fight, win, move on.

[heady rapids]

dt zealot dies from chip

[mystic ether]

Bigger difference is that thp operates differently than toughness. Zealot in vt2 has very steady gains in that department.

Unless you're getting completely smacked up or something, you can do alright. Still gotta not be goofy and die since vt2 zealots in my experience were some of the goofiest people.

[carmine lance]

I don’t get the dtide zealot slander, it’s insane how much damage reduction you can stack up just by playing the game

[north sedge]

they want infinite hp zealot from vt

[mystic ether]

Idk, gamer™ shit. People need to prove themselves in the circlejerk

[dull iris]

more like zealittle, am i right

[heady rapids]

someone made a lengthy post on forums

so zeals dont get accepted into havocs now

[dull iris]

do people really use the fatshark forums

[mystic ether]

Plenty

[dull iris]

that's crazy, they are pretty awful

[mystic ether]

Forums can be like that a lot of the time. Especially for a game like this.

Entitled nerds on the internet tend to do that

[deft badge]

Dude is toxic everytime he's in chat

[carmine lance]

So that’s why I keep getting denied even on lower havocs

[heady rapids]

they dont like your kind there...

Not sure who's being spoken about since it's just that common across the board in the discord period.

i remember there being a guy talking abt the Korean havoc meta and how they do clears with extremely defensive builds but i cannot find it

that convo for sure happened in this chat

[deft badge]

I think it might be Cy?

You mean the whole defense meta right

Running smokes/bubble/book

[heady rapids]

esp on asian servers

there was someone here who plays there

I think it's Cy tbh

[heady rapids]

i dont think so but i'll check

[plush estuary]

Asian gamer culture is really interesting learning about it

[deft badge]

Oh nah

It's Nate

Nate plays on HK servers

[deft badge]

Agreed, the win at all costs nature of it

[drowsy steppe]

not bad. I like the other song with her and tyler tho ngl

[heady rapids]

Yeah, win at all costs

ehhhh

[deft badge]

i remember the ffxiv controversy

have to clarify its only east asian

not all asia lol

[heady rapids]

when a team used external software to do the omega raid

[plush estuary]

yeah, mostly eastern from what I noticed

[carmine lance]

I feel like going purely defensive in havoc would be a bad idea tho

it's always the Chinese players in drg if we're talking cheaters

Because I really do want to win, from a point of doing something to feel proud of even if as a personal achievement

[sterile stone]

I've seen people literally orbiting the activies of others and how much they do havocs.

Oh you didn't do havoc in the most ball crushing way possible....?

Invalid run

[drowsy steppe]

unironically

its always

[sterile stone]

Try again loser, only the real havoc players can count that as a win

[deft badge]

Just win

[sterile stone]

Like bro

[drowsy steppe]

the most nitpicky excuses ever

[deft badge]

I don't care how you get there

[sterile stone]

You're a grown ass adult

It's a video game

Chill

[deft badge]

They don't ask how, they ask how many

Yk?

The only thing I truly hate are the esp mods people use

Psykernautics

Spidey sense(I get it the game audio engine is trash)

[carmine falcon]

damn bros really teaching the ai a lesson!

[sterile stone]

People who's entire personality being good at tide games will forever be a strange anomaly to witness.

[carmine falcon]

playing none comp games with comp gaming mindset is so lame lmao

[carmine lance]

I like to be good at tide because I genuinely enjoy it

[deft badge]

All the "helper" mods

[carmine lance]

I do it as a love of the game thing

But I don’t see how it should define me

[sterile stone]

Mfw people make up some underground esports league for a horde shooter

[carmine falcon]

having ranks doesnt help

i hate rank up modes in these games

its the same shit in ngihtreign

oh no my fucking points aaaaaaa

[deft badge]

Havoc is the joy of CSGO without the pleasure of being better than the other team lmfao

[lament blaze]

I think ranks are fine but don't decay jfc.

[carmine falcon]

what you're playing raider in depth 4? are u insane? kicked

[lament blaze]

Why are we decaying in a coop game

[carmine falcon]

you must only play wylder ironeye and duchess

no fun allowed!!!

my hekkin score

[sterile stone]

Because man

You gotta stay competitive for when darktide gets tournies

And esports

Broooo

I gotta reach gold 5 in havoc brooo

[lament blaze]

🦆🦆🦆

[sterile stone]

[carmine falcon]

hey man havoc decays are nothing

in nightreign

i won 5 games

almost boutta rank up

and then guess what

i lost 2

all the progress gone

800 points

SHUT UP HADRON

[lament blaze]

🤣

Let a man use separate messages for punctuation

[drowsy steppe]

it has been 2 months since I last played havoc

my rank decayed and i dont give a shit

[sterile stone]

I'm only coming back for the ganger drip

[carmine falcon]

the mechanic is also so annoying cause lets say u dont wanna eat shit everytime on depth 4-5 (basically havoc 35 to 40) and u wanna chill in depth 3 (basically havoc 30)
Well guess what you're gonna lose points if u lose anyway xddd

[carmine lance]

Genuinely I just want to get the havoc penances lol

[sterile stone]

I'm sad arby never got a havoc outfit

But I kinda get it aswell

[lament blaze]

I got the helm and walked away

I'll come back for the title at some point

[carmine lance]

Like yeah it’d be cool to say I reached havoc 40, I want the penance for it

[carmine falcon]

arby cant even get store drip and people are pointing the blame to james workshop

[carmine lance]

Same for the nobody going down on havoc 35 title

[lament blaze]

True survivor impossible in today's economy

[deft badge]

I genuinely don't think it means anything

[carmine lance]

In party finder at least

[deft badge]

I see so many "true survivors" die in havoc 27

[lament blaze]

I got it when it wasn't crushing your balls hard.

[sterile stone]

I won't lie, I got mine completely undeserved

The only thing that saved me was spamming VoC

[carmine lance]

Lmao

[sterile stone]

Ate a whole crusher overhead

Had 5 hp left

[carmine lance]

Goddamn

[sterile stone]

And went into fucking panic mode

[drowsy steppe]

I hard spammed havoc matches to get the 53rd drip and True Survivor during the first few weeks of release

Im not grinding for havoc exemplar

[deft badge]

It seemed way easier in the original iterations of havoc as opposed to whatever this is. Idk, I came back to DT about a month ago.

[lament blaze]

Eh. It shows the ability to consistently stay safe for a long period in a tough game mode

[sterile stone]

79/100

[carmine lance]

I don’t blame you I would’ve panicked too

[sterile stone]

I wanna get the insignia for it

[lament blaze]

Even if you're just shouting constantly

[sterile stone]

But fuck the game is so zzz when you don't play it for fun

[drowsy steppe]

I dont even remember how much matches I gotta do

[sterile stone]

I felt hella bad for my team tho

Cause it was our last try on a hav 37

And we were like at the tail end

And I felt like I almost threw a perfect run

[lament blaze]

Because it was. You just played bubble flame psyker, 2x book zealot, one with flame one with bolter, then a psyker/vet/zealot.

And you slow pushed bubble hopped to victory on sycorax

[deft badge]

Tbh even outside the meta it wasnt

"Heres infinite gazillion hp crushers"

I legit got 1 week on havoc before this whole

Rot armor debacle

[long oasis]

Crimes against humanity

[heady rapids]

sycorax

slow pushed?

that map had 0 enemies and you would do it in 20m

[lament blaze]

I think it was excruciating if you lacked bubble for the vast majority of players
