Rannick for example doesnt give a shit about anyone

Morrow meanwhile on quote says "This team doesn't know defeat!"

[queen laurel]

what i'm curious about is the psychic great sword

has there been a time in lore where a character has used something like that

Besides it just being a basic force sword

[storm jungle]

Theres basically a psychic weapon for anything. One short story I read had one psyker with a force-mace

[queen laurel]

i do still feel bad for the veterans

because psyker and zealot are getting great swords

ogryn is getting a fully automatic sniper rifle

and they're getting

well

[storm jungle]

they are McShooty Armymen its fine

[queen laurel]

how much you bet's gonna be a cause of complaint?

the Vet mains are well notorious for that

[storm jungle]

Uh theres already been some since the announcement post

nothing too bad from what ive seen so far minus the usual bitching so idk

[queen laurel]

oh well

sounds like your average day honestly

[storm jungle]

pretty much

[rose thorn]

Who won?

[shell mason]

ah yes perfect

[rocky gale]

I haven’t even played Veilguard yet because my new computer got delayed, but I’m already pissed off reading through the bts stuff they were going to add but didn’t

[celest dome]

Like what ?

[shell mason]

play dragons dogma 2

[rocky gale]

||Calpurnia from Inquisition coming back as a companion||

I was obsessed with her in Inquisition and was hoping to see more of her in future games and they’d planned to add her as a companion but ended up cutting it

It would have been so peak

[shell mason]

nah

there was a elf chick in dragon age two i liked

her name was

Merrill that was her name

[rocky gale]

Yea but we already had her as a companion

[shell mason]

https://tenor.com/view/we-do-we-do-not-we-do-not-care-steelers-nfl-gif-19783307

[rocky gale]

NPC returning as companion is peak

Also data mining apparently shows they’d planned on world state options quite far into development before cutting it

[shell mason]

but for all intense and purposes I liked dragons dogma more than origins

[rocky gale]

There was also plans for there to be an awakened darkspawn acting as a military advisor like the three from Inquisition

[shell mason]

more playable

ah

lemme see something

leaks show their may be a dlc

[rocky gale]

It would have been absolute cinema

[shell mason]

who dat?

[rocky gale]

Calpernia

[shell mason]

ahhh

[rocky gale]

She’s your nemesis in Inquisition if you side with the Templars, she takes control of the Mages

If you side with Mages then Samson is your nemesis but Calpernia is a much better written character

Which sucks because siding with Mages is the much better option

[shell mason]

ooh

[remote widget]

Did the imperium purge all ork spores from terra?

[storm jungle]

We dont know.

[shell mason]

Mostly likely no

[remote widget]

Like we hear abt the stealers, but never squigs and such

[storm jungle]

Streamers?

[shell mason]

for all we know theirs a underground Waaaagh going on some where

[storm jungle]

OH LOL

[remote widget]

Autocorrect

[queen laurel]

that's the problem the only surefire way to get rid of ork spores is literally glassing an entire planet

[shell mason]

in all seriousness id prefer a orks than stealers

[storm jungle]

Stealers make more sense.

so

[remote widget]

I mean, there's not a lot of soil for them to grow in,

[storm jungle]

Orks dont need soil

they can grow on largely any surface

[queen laurel]

yeah no

[storm jungle]

remember, they are fungus

[queen laurel]

Their fungus is literally designed to grow in just about everywhere

[storm jungle]

literally everywhere we look at rn in our rooms has spores

[queen laurel]

radioactive asteroids acidic swamps frozen planets

[storm jungle]

They can even grow in the hulls of imperial ships, etc

[queen laurel]

yep

[shell mason]

as long as it's dark and dank their good

[remote widget]

So the orks are the flowering body? I figured they were like truffles

[storm jungle]

Uhhh dont think about it

because mushroom science is a bit complicated

the spore just lands and eventually grows on a surface

[storm jungle]

yeah thats one of the older charts

[remote widget]

So they are the truffle

[remote widget]

Oh

[storm jungle]

Yeah that thing is like from the first few modern ork codexes

before you motherfuckers were probably EVEN BORN

🫵

[shell mason]

bitch why you point at me

tf

[queen laurel]

yeah yeah witch hunter boomer i get it

fuckin snake bite head ass

[rose thorn]

This is where conservatives think gay people come from

[storm jungle]

Literally

[rocky gale]

A coworker just asked if I was a “gamer”

[celest dome]

"I play videogame, I don't identify as a gamer"

[storm jungle]

Gaymer*

[paper haven]

Obligatory Vet main complaint.

[versed ledge]

So...does that mean the Imperium can just bleach on the orks then?

"prevent orks from growing on your kitchen counter, use Clorox brand bleach wipes"

[queen laurel]

no

[languid meadow]

the imperium already uses the best cleaning equipment there is

[storm jungle]

You literally need to burn/exterminate the spores

they are a super weapon

not normal mushrooms

[queen laurel]

they are literally super fungus

[storm jungle]

^

[queen laurel]

some lousy chemical isn't enough to get rid of them

[outer wave]

Ork fungus cant grow within living beings, can they?

I dont think any official source states they couldnt

[queen laurel]

yes they can't but

they can literally grow in just about any surface

[outer wave]

Damn we really cant get orkoid parasites...

[rose thorn]

Call your self a wargamer

Or warhammer

Also Pete the wargamer’s dead animal bits dropped

It’s, beautiful

[shadow plover]

Called "Dead Animal Bits", >50% human bits...

[outer wave]

Dead animal bits
Seeing pieces of human

Humans are animals if you aren’t a human

[thick cedar]

How long do eldar live for

[queen laurel]

can be more than a thousand years unless they die from accident or disease

[storm jungle]

[spring cairn]

or if i hit them very hard in the face

[storm jungle]

Im sure you'll get a shuriken in the brain before that one

not sure if theres much left in there though.....

[spiral jungle]

Ogryn brain is small enough to dodge the shuriken

[storm jungle]

Holy shit

its that animal blundetto

[outer wave]

What the fuck is this about Turkish marriage now?

[queen laurel]

and of all the channels to post the link in

[storm jungle]

I got no idea this just got randomly posted LOL

[queen laurel]

god loves this place doesn't he

[storm jungle]

anyway the best turkish wedding tradition is shooting handguns in the air

haydili haydili fincanlım

[rose thorn]

👏SHOT 👏GUN 👏WEDDINGS 👏FOR 👏THE 👏WIN 👏

[storm jungle]

tho only rural turks do that now

since uh, firing guns at a wedding is 💀

[rose thorn]

That happened to my cousin lmao

He’s a bastard so he deserved it

[queen laurel]

I thought it was watching the guys tear off their shirts and go on a fist fight with an ork

[storm jungle]

thats wrestling

[outer wave]

Maybe I should go to Turkey and marry a Turkish woman......

[queen laurel]

True

[vagrant fox]

Oil wrestling is very manly, from what I've seen

[rose thorn]

[storm jungle]

LMFAO

BAHAHAAHAHAAH

[storm jungle]

BRO

[cobalt matrix]

......

[storm jungle]

Turkish wedding tradition is whatever the fuck parents wanna do

simple as

[outer wave]

Bruh

[storm jungle]

absolutely crazy

[frail widget]

he then started screaming about how awful the darktide community is when ham muted him

[silk grove]

started yelling at us forgetting other countries exist, being a dumbass american is supposed to be a fucking JOKE though not real

[storm jungle]

BASED

[cobalt matrix]

I am absolutely speechless

[tough haven]

I mean, there was really no point in engaging with that, there’s so much to unpack there with someone instantly flying into outrage, then immediately descending to insults

[queen laurel]

OH MY GOD it keeps getting better and better

[storm jungle]

Bro im wheezing rn

this is crazy

[queen laurel]

man i should've joined to hear him cry

[outer wave]

Jesus bruh

[silk grove]

I SWEAR NOT ALL AMERICANS ARE THAT STUPID

[outer wave]

I cant believe I missed that

[storm jungle]

least lore accurate Imperial zealot

[queen laurel]

Bro we ain't even talking about Americans chill

[cobalt matrix]

It was one of the interactions of all time I had in this discord

[tough haven]

People with genuine issues choosing to focus on other peoples “flaws” to distract themselves

I swear guys we aren’t all like that

[silk grove]

we are the dude was very obviously an american with zero understanding of how the world works

[outer wave]

"Guh, I can't believe we have to pay for our weddings when my daddy and mommy could pay it for me..."

[storm jungle]

All I know about Americans is from playing metal gear

[tough haven]

Also, who gives a shit what people do, it literally doesn’t effect you

[small depot]

This guy had me boggled

[spare osprey]

Pretty much caught you up on everything then

[tough haven]

Fairly accurate tbh, except senators aren’t cool

[storm jungle]

ALSO LIKE, WHY EVEN DO IT IN LORE CHAT

[cerulean wagon]

he spammed that shit across 4 chats???

[queen laurel]

Well what can you do

[outer wave]

Im Canadian so I kinda experience American-lite every day

[cobalt matrix]

yes sir. I don't even

[cerulean wagon]

and pinged someone else

[queen laurel]

guy was a mega moron

[storm jungle]

Yeah i dropped it in modchat take a look

[outer wave]

God damn

[storm jungle]

to be fair it was pretty funny though

[queen laurel]

FOUR?

[tough haven]

I’d say he’s a bot but that would be the easy way out

[queen laurel]

damn

[cerulean wagon]

sounds suspiciously like something an american would say

[small depot]

EXACTLY!

[silk grove]

i am one and people like that guy make me ashamed of it

[queen laurel]

like what the **** did we do why did we get dragged into this

[spare osprey]

So real

[outer wave]

So it was a coincidence that he started talking about Turkish weddings in here

[queen laurel]

We were literally just chilling about conversation and then suddenly this guy is just like

[vagrant fox]

I don't see why you'd be ashamed of what someone else does

[queen laurel]

boom turkish wedding traditions

like what

[outer wave]

I can't believe I missed him spamming and getting angry that no one understood his sad story

[tough haven]

I’ve rarely ever been proud of it lol

[tough haven]

Dude was just looking for a fight

And not in a cool Orky way

[small depot]

It was something he started in Voice Chat, I'm sorry he took it into here

[cobalt matrix]

Like, he was getting extremely angry at me because I said I was going to pay for my wedding.... What?????????

[queen laurel]

There's looking for a fight and then there's violently reacting for someone paying on their wedding

[paper haven]

Aw, I missed another troll?

[tough haven]

Also unrelated but two of you guys just merged

[queen laurel]

How loud did he scream

[outer wave]

Did he just bring it outta nowhere and everyone else just disagree with him?

[queen laurel]

yes

[outer wave]

I an ogre lover fusing with he, the greenskin lover

[cobalt matrix]

muted him halfway through the conversation i don't even know LMAO

[queen laurel]

he posted it on several channels as well

[queen laurel]

BAHAHA

[opaque coyote]

I think that is a sign of therapy

[tough haven]

And I thought it was funny just the bright red name bursting into the text

[outer wave]

Okay I know in here, but in VC as well?

[paper haven]

He was Big Mad

[small depot]

In VC it was a topic coming off the back of Hamdol's conversation, and this guy went cray cray out of the blue.

[queen laurel]

i saw him in the strike party 2

where Ponti and Ham were

i then saw him leave and literally post that link here in chat

it was like a few minutes ago

[outer wave]

Wild

[small depot]

I did DM Dilara a clip of him ranting in VC as well. So's all sorted I believe.

[queen laurel]

send me the clip

[outer wave]

Damn kinda wanna listen to that now

[shadow plover]

no way did I miss out on some tomfoolery

[outer wave]

Yeah

[queen laurel]

you did

[shadow plover]

was it someone new

[queen laurel]

It was some real good tomfoolery as well

[shell mason]

goated

[queen laurel]

yes

[outer wave]

Some guy came into here talking about Turkish wedding traditions and complaining how they would have to pay for it despite past generations would have their parents do it for them

He got brushed off and called everyone beta males

[shadow plover]

amazing

[outer wave]

Apparently spammed that shit in 4 chats and in VC

Complained about the Darktide community apparently

Got banned

[cobalt matrix]

Guys, is it beta to pay for my wedding??

[queen laurel]

yeah he got mad at someone in strike party 2

[shell mason]

Bwahahahaa

[shell mason]

yes

[outer wave]

Guys am I a cuck for using my money for my wedding???

[shell mason]

yes

[queen laurel]

This guy

[outer wave]

😔

[queen laurel]

apparently he got mad because this guy wanted to pay for his wedding thing

[shell mason]

so?

[queen laurel]

after he dragged the whole thing here

when he got ignored

[shell mason]

who are we to judge tradition?

[queen laurel]

shut up nerd

anyway it was ******* funny basically

[shell mason]

Coming from ork boy over here

[queen laurel]

you are a nerd by association of going to this chat

And willingly talking to us

[shell mason]

Nah

[paper haven]

Unironically calling people beta males?

[queen laurel]

he did

Unironically

[paper haven]

That's a rarity these days.

[shell mason]

I got to this chat just cause there's no time limit or gif restrictions

I guess we're just doing this now

[crystal forum]

my copium makes me think vet isn't getting a new weapon because he will be the focus of the update after the next one

my copium is often wrong

[gray umbra]

Vet is probably getting melta

[storm jungle]

I mean its not wrong but yes

[crystal forum]

a new melee would have been nice

cough cough power fist

but at least zealot is going to kill heretics with class

how a crazed lunatic got hold of a relic blade, who tf knows

[storm jungle]

We are an elite Inquisitorial kill-team

if the commanders deem it fit we get it

simple as

[crystal forum]

zealot is still a crazed lunatic and that's why we love them

"sir a train full of explosives is coming to destroy our front line"

"send in the bible squad"

i do have to say though, ogryns getting stubber but not vet is something that makes me sad

[storm jungle]

maybe they'll get something next time

(:

[gray umbra]

Vet gets cooldown removed from scavenger :))

[crystal forum]

finally, confirmation that vet is getting a custodes spear

[gray umbra]

[crystal forum]

thanks dilara

[young pecan]

Vet gets to have ten plasma buffs, take it or leave it favorite child class

[arctic talon]

Vet players when obese megaladon doesn’t give them attention for one patch/hj

[crystal forum]

darktide players finding more variations of saying "fatshark" than loadouts for their favorite class (meta slaves)

[arctic talon]

Obese megaladon is from vermintide 🤓

[hallow plover]

I don't even use loadouts

I clear and reassign manually each time I want to play another build

[arctic talon]

Thats

Horrifying

[crystal forum]

you're the guy in the party who takes forever to ready up

[rocky gale]

I have an ai randomise my equipment and skills between every missions and go in completely blind to what it picks

https://tenor.com/view/xqc-gambling-gamble-gambler-gambling-addiction-gif-25801242

[arctic talon]

Based

Also I think it’s funny veteran had the best melee weapon selection by far

Before lock and loaded dropped

[crystal forum]

i dont care about meta i just want more toys to play with

[dusk patrol]

Power fist is something I’ll say I expected to see by now.

Would be a very fun addition

[arctic talon]

Well it kind of hurts when the “ranged focus” class literally has the best melee options lol

[crystal forum]

it's a classic militarum weapon

[arctic talon]

No fist is surprising

[dusk patrol]

Although the wonkiness of how they switch off it could be part of why

[arctic talon]

I wonder if it’s an animation thing

[dusk patrol]

Yeah

[arctic talon]

Could do it like the ogryn gauntlet

[crystal forum]

i hope it'll be like shock maul instead of another fucking cycling weapon

[dusk patrol]

Giving the Ogryn a powerfist weapon would be really fun too. Something similar

[crystal forum]

just dont make the damn thing OP and make it always powered

[arctic talon]

Lol

I wonder if they’ll rework the power sword

[dusk patrol]

As long as it yeets mfers

[arctic talon]

To work like the power greatsword

[dusk patrol]

I do think making it so it switches styles is a better idea

[arctic talon]

God pre nerf power sword was deranged lol

What was fatshark cooking

[dusk patrol]

Than “power up, slash, power up, slash”

[crystal forum]

it fulfilled my power fantasy

cleave a whole horde in half

[arctic talon]

Mf’ers power fantasy is literally deleting everything in one hit

[dusk patrol]

It was lore accurate

[arctic talon]

It was

[crystal forum]

even space marine doesnt let me do that

[arctic talon]

But the thunderhammer sure as shit wasn’t lol

[crystal forum]

also cutting enemies in half in darktide is so fucking satisfying

[arctic talon]

The launch power sword was hilarious

Instantly killing multiple crushers

[hallow plover]

No I just prepare what I want to play before queuing 🤔

[arctic talon]

I mean you can still do that

[crystal forum]

yes

i like it

half the reason why i even play

space marine 2 pales in comparison

they could have done away with executions and just had better gibs

[dusk patrol]

There’s some pretty nice gibs in SM2, it’s just easy to miss them.

[celest dome]

I think the issue with PFist is that it's mostly a secondary weapon, you wouldn't really see a Power Fist on its own, but rather as a +1 to either a ranged weapon (Pistol) or a melee one (Usually Swords)
ANd here we would have the cosmetic that I think could be a slowing effect

[dusk patrol]

Pfists are used as a primary weapon plenty by guard

[crystal forum]

power fists are like the size of a guardsman's head it's very funny

[dusk patrol]

It’s just we rarely see guardsmen without a pistol and melee weapon for one handed melee weapons

Because why wouldn’t you take a pistol

[crystal forum]

plasma pistol would be nice

[dusk patrol]

The main issue with it is stowing it probably looks weird and is kinda odd

Maybe if they restricted it to pistol weapons but idk if that’s a good thing

Zealot is the obvious choice for it anyways

[crystal forum]

for power fist???

[dusk patrol]

Yes

[crystal forum]

it's like the quintessential guard weapon

[dusk patrol]

It’s a guard weapon

Also they can share either way

[crystal forum]

hey if vet doesnt get relic sword i want vet to have some exclusivity too

im petty like that

[queen laurel]

What I'm excited about is the new force swords

psyker berserker is something i want

[dusk patrol]

Flamer fist for zealot would be hilarious

[gray umbra]

Sm2 combat knife executions still make me feel a certain way

[dusk patrol]

They’re cool

[gray umbra]

So cool

[dusk patrol]

Very clinical

[celest dome]

Vet melee exclusive that I would see quite well would be Catachan Dueling Glaive and Hunting Lance (Only War rules let them have it on foot)

[crystal forum]

i love killing a big nid and my team just waits while the animation finishes

there goes brother jay doing his thing

[dusk patrol]

Hippity hoppity your skull went kerbloppity

[gray umbra]

Me playing vanguard with the restore hp perk, stealing executions left and right

[rocky gale]

The rules for the Darkoath spearhead look like they might be quite good

[storm jungle]

Thats the lasgun

jay you are suppose to be the guard nerd

[shell mason]

wtf

[arctic talon]

Vet has the shovels and power sword

and before you talk shit about the shovels

They're actually good weapons

[dusk patrol]

And there ranged weapon options

[arctic talon]

for some god forsaken reason

Plasma is literally the best gun in the game

[dusk patrol]

Almost like vet is a ranged class

[arctic talon]

lol

its not even a question imo

Plasma is just the GOAT

[dusk patrol]

He is worse than a heretic, he is, Emperor forgive me, a Vet main

[dusk patrol]

Me when the Krieg larpers are actually using a fairly optimal build

[arctic talon]

me when the shovel is better at killing crushers and clearing hordes then a thunderhammer

(this isn't even a fucking joke)

Not sure about after the buffs

but pre Thammer changes the shovel was just objectively better lol

[dusk patrol]

I was never a huge fan of it either way so idk

[arctic talon]

when the government that takes over after a coup literally does what it promises

[shell mason]

wat dat

[storm jungle]

its America i think

or for rich merchants

[rocky gale]

Damnit, Sorceror Lord is moving to 40mm base

Mibyllorr is 32mm

[rose thorn]

Is that the new one or the one with all the little guys

[rocky gale]

With the little guys, the new one is 40mm

Wait by new one did you mean the one that's going for Preorder next week or Tzarketh

Doesn't matter both are 40mm

It's just Mibyllor who's 32mm

and the older ones might be even smaller base sizes, not sure

[opaque coyote]

How long can Rejuv make you last

[dusk patrol]

300ish years generally speaking

[opaque coyote]

Like I know there's a limit to how long you can live with it

[dusk patrol]

After that it’s a crapshoot

[opaque coyote]

So after that it just doesn't work

[dusk patrol]

It stops working as well, or most do

Also it’s just more luck based

[opaque coyote]

Ig the cells break down too quickly for Rejuv to repair them

[dusk patrol]

Some people live to be 600

[opaque coyote]

Telomeres blah blah blah

[dusk patrol]

Some die at 300 even with the best care

[storm jungle]

Generally whatever the plot demands at the time

but most dont make it past like 500's lol

because at that point the person is literally falling apart

because Old Person Disease

[dusk patrol]

300 is the stated age where it stops consistently working and runs into issues

[opaque coyote]

What exactly does it do anyways?

Repair the telomeres/cells?

[storm jungle]

Uhhh

it keeps you young

[opaque coyote]

Or is it just

[storm jungle]

because science

Some books go into detail but like

[opaque coyote]

"inject magic science into yourself"

[storm jungle]

its very much easily to tell googled shit

[queen laurel]

how about Biomancy how long does that make you last

[storm jungle]

and "magic healing liquid"

they get it from aliens, people, plants, literally anything

[opaque coyote]

I think it depends on how powerful you are?

[storm jungle]

Its magic so also "it depends"

also that yeah

[opaque coyote]

Like if you're the Emperor

[storm jungle]

magic in 40k works on the rule of plot too

[opaque coyote]

You will life forever

[storm jungle]

like another random de-aging example

in the Czevak book he literally turns into a young handsome chad by going through the webway

since time works differently there

[queen laurel]

So let's just say my psyker can live for like as long as i wanted to?

[storm jungle]

he'd need to actually learn how to use his biomancy that way first lol

[dusk patrol]

If they are adept at biomancy

And lucky

[storm jungle]

otherwise nada

[dusk patrol]

Being a psyker has its hazards too

[opaque coyote]

As long as they're on the more powerful end I think?

Like if they're a minor Psyker probably not.

And they also need to be adept at Biomancy

[dusk patrol]

And not all biomancy works like that anyways yeah

[storm jungle]

Yeah its mafia city logic more or less

its pretty basic

[queen laurel]

hey boxes using biomancy

[opaque coyote]

At least you have friends

[queen laurel]

so i think he will live very long

[opaque coyote]

...

Constantly clawing at your head

[storm jungle]

Boxes got Convenient Astartes Tech That Also Drives You Mad™️

unless you are a special character

mostly

🧑‍🦼‍➡️

[rose thorn]

Slaves to darkness don’t really have any generic guys on giant monsters now do they?

[dusk patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/are-you-ready-shadow-realm-gif-25892503

[storm jungle]

Im pretty sure they do?

i swear i saw a few lol

[opaque coyote]

Average Psyker after accidentally losing focus for 0.01 milliseconds

[dusk patrol]

Generally your physical issues are the least of your worries as a psyker

[queen laurel]

my psyker uses biomancy to drink prometheum, he actually credited learning the discipline because he wanted to drink cheap alcohol that way

[storm jungle]

wait what

[dusk patrol]

Is this Dark Heresy?

[opaque coyote]

"Longer lifespan? Bitch I have to worry about living today!"

[storm jungle]

Well not the worst alcoholic ive seen i guess

[queen laurel]

no necromunda

he's like a bouncer bounty hunter type guy that i made

[storm jungle]

yeah nvm definitely the least crazy Necromundan

[dusk patrol]

Oh he’s gonna die in a month then anyways

Why are you worried about dying of old age in Necromunda smh

[opaque coyote]

Imagine somebody asks for a drink

He shares it

They drink it

The person immediately fucking dies and melts like it's that one Indiana Jones scene

[queen laurel]

Well he can uppercut an ambot and send it flying so hey i will say his chances of living is good

[dusk patrol]

Two months then

[opaque coyote]

"My faith is my shield? Nah my liver is."

takes a sip out of promethium flask

[queen laurel]

yeah his name is Rakol Sewerbrawler

this art is made of one of the artists here

[opaque coyote]

Man looks like he's on steroids

[queen laurel]

he basically does jobs goes to the pub and drinks prometheum and repeat

[opaque coyote]

...

[queen laurel]

Biomancy is crazy

[storm jungle]

My man 🤝

[opaque coyote]

Actually he probably is

[dusk patrol]

He kinda is I guess

I can’t think of any psyker steroid puns

[queen laurel]

Uses biomancy to like basically enter in a berserker state enlarging his body and making his muscles like basically metal or something

[gray umbra]

Man eats combat stims on the daily

https://tenor.com/view/chenongyun-cat-肌肉喵-gif-27392480

[queen laurel]

and he also imitates power fists by hardening his arms to metal like and coating it in a psychic power field

[gray umbra]

Average biomancy psyker

[storm jungle]

Yeah people kinda forget how nifty biomancy would be as an ability in 40k in general, you dont see it explored too much.

[opaque coyote]

Reminds me of African Mythology.

Essentially they took apart a guy like he was a mannequin and "reforged" his muscles and body until it was like steel

And then put him back together

[storm jungle]

Shoutout to my Biologis homies btw

[gray umbra]

When i was figuring out how to build heinrix in rt i realized i could basically make him a paladin

[queen laurel]

Yeah like if a psyker is powerful enough he could dumpster a war boss in a fistfight

[gray umbra]

It was cool as shit

[opaque coyote]

Imagine a Gymbro Psyker

Both pumping iron in and out of Biomancy

Like he just looks like a normal muscular guy

[gray umbra]

Sanctic clearing daemons and then healing and steroid buffing with biomancy

[opaque coyote]

But with Biomancy he's basically a Space Marine physicality wise

A space marine that can shoot lightning

That's a librarian

But still you get the point

[gray umbra]

Then what is a biomancer librarian?

Does he become the terminator

[opaque coyote]

Would be neat if there was a Psyker Monk

[opaque coyote]

Why do you think Grey Knights are terrifying?

A lot of them are Psykers

[gray umbra]

They have a baby harness

[opaque coyote]

With the EMPEROR'S FUCKING GENESEED INSIDE OF THEM

[dusk patrol]

Depends biomancy does a lot

[gray umbra]

I was just shitposting

[opaque coyote]

And yet most use it to shoot Smite

And have all the poxwalkers do a sudden dance party

[dusk patrol]

There is biomancer librarians.

[opaque coyote]

[dusk patrol]

Generally it’s to hit harder, heal friendlies and themselves, make themselves tougher

There’s a lot of stuff

[opaque coyote]

Biomancy sounds like the coolest psyker tree tbh

mainly because it can actually help people

although if you're a psyker

[gray umbra]

Divination is cool too

[dusk patrol]

There’s cool stuff

[opaque coyote]

you might not want to

[dusk patrol]

The mind fucking stuff is underrated

[opaque coyote]

literally can do phantom ruby type shit

except not as extreme

and also hopefully not as poorly written

god damnit sega

[dusk patrol]

Yeah, the new Exorcists book had a librarian who specialized in telepathy and used it offensively

Pretty OP

[gray umbra]

"Mind bullets"

[storm jungle]

The largest problem with magic users in most media is usually them never using their abilities properly because if they did the plot would end sooner.

[opaque coyote]

i mean honestly i get why people are afraid of psykers in general

cause normally, they can fucking pop heads

[dusk patrol]

Some can

[opaque coyote]

and then there's the fact that if they get possessed, they become city destroyers AT BEST

[queen laurel]

If I was a magic user I would develop a spell specifically designed to target a male person's testicle

[gray umbra]

The only saving grace is psyker powers make you fucking crazy

But still

[dusk patrol]

What we see in media is fairly uncommon battle psykers

[storm jungle]

Its also just like

not reading someones mind

or doing something actually smart

its like how marines never eat peoples' brains

unless its like asked by the writer for that one scene lol

even tho it could give them like a treasure trove of info, unless its like not cooked well or something idk im not KFC

[opaque coyote]

I mean for this case, it's just that the phantom ruby is kinda unclearly defined

Basically it fucks with your perception and causes extreme targetted hallucinations

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/mgsv-metal-gear-solid-metal-gear-metal-gear-solid5-metal-gear-solid-v-gif-21876415

[opaque coyote]

At least that what's written

[storm jungle]

sounds about right

[queen laurel]

They probably also feel gross eating a lot of the enemies they fight because they have been taught how to hate so much

[opaque coyote]

In reality it kinda just does whatever

[queen laurel]

i'm pretty sure that's the only reason why they don't eat the brains

[opaque coyote]

Including summoning the Sun to fall onto your enemies

[dusk patrol]

It does linger and it’s not pleasant which is one reason why a lot prefer not to do it

[opaque coyote]

Because the Sonic franchise isn't exactly top tier in writing

[storm jungle]

Its just kinda done when the story needs it otherwise forgotten

[queen laurel]

i mean i wouldn't want to have the memories of an ork would be horrible

[storm jungle]

its up there with them not using acid spit too much

[opaque coyote]

Surprisingly enough, it's hard to hate the "Alien, Mutant, and Heretic" when you're suddenly thrust into their perspective

Including their hopes and dreams

[storm jungle]

which ive seen people complain about a lot sometimes which is funny lol

[queen laurel]

trying to understand their way of thinking is like trying to understand laati

[opaque coyote]

and their fear when you come up and shoot them

[storm jungle]

It gets easier the more you do it.

[opaque coyote]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-mind-enigma-spilled-milk-gif-14172730

[queen laurel]

yeah that's why i do not chase realism much when it comes to warhammer

[storm jungle]

its fine to apply in small doses

its why the books exist

[dusk patrol]

It’s more most of the dudes they’re eating aren’t people you wanna be

[opaque coyote]

Idk man

Eating a chaos cultist's brain sounds like a great idea!

[opaque coyote]

It depends (tm)

I generally don't think that Warhammer needs to be too realistic.

Like if it was, then it just wouldn't be fun.

[storm jungle]

Yeah its why i said i nsmall doses

[gray umbra]

Nah, too much realism is a bad thing

[storm jungle]

also this yeah

the problem is it leads to dumb semantic arguments

[opaque coyote]

The definition of realism in general is janky at best tbh

[queen laurel]

A marine that's told to eat your brain would probably choose to solo a planet alone

[storm jungle]

Its not tbh, its just too inconsistent due to every writer having their own take on it.

[queen laurel]

and die that way peacefully

[opaque coyote]

You're assuming there is a brain

[shell mason]

wtf

is this

[opaque coyote]

Nothing but hyperfixations and memes

[storm jungle]

its 40k

[queen laurel]

yeah every single writer in warhammer be funny

[storm jungle]

have you ever read a book in your life

[opaque coyote]

Yeah it's inevitable in some cases. Everybody has their own perspectives and takes.

[storm jungle]

Some good some cringe

[queen laurel]

you can have things like amazing books then you can have nick kyme, goto and thorpe

[opaque coyote]

It's like how throughout DC's Batman. There were multiple periods with multiple writers

[storm jungle]

Yeah but batman sucks

so does his fanbase

[opaque coyote]

I love rich dude punching the mentally ill tho

[queen laurel]

batman ain't **** without prep time

[storm jungle]

You can get that in cubicle work IRL

[opaque coyote]

Tesla moment

[gray umbra]

Red hood only cool batman fam

[opaque coyote]

I think there was a scene in Justice League War where it was precisely that.

Basically Batman met Superman for the first time and uh... he couldn't do jackshit.

The man tried to KICK superman

[gray umbra]

Muh kryptonite

[opaque coyote]

Batman basically tried all of his usual gadgets and it didn't do shit

[shell mason]

[opaque coyote]

And the fight just ended because it started due to a misunderstanding.

Because we gotta have cool fight scenes guyz!!!

[queen laurel]

That's the funny thing superman can also power through kryptonite

[opaque coyote]

I am the Chaos God of Autism

[opaque coyote]

Unless if it's pink colored

[queen laurel]

Like yes it can weaken him but he can still power through it

[opaque coyote]

[gray umbra]

RED kryptonite

[dusk patrol]

Superman gets very goofy very often

[queen laurel]

Nah go for gold kryptonite

It can permanently depower him

[opaque coyote]

Only after being exposed to it for a while

[shell mason]

From the shit you tell me I don't doubt it

[dusk patrol]

Pink kryptonite

https://tenor.com/view/well-bang-okay-shepard-mass-effect-commander-shepard-gif-8119270

[queen laurel]

Yes give him pink kryptonite and tell him where the handsome fella eternal reward lives

[dusk patrol]

Well now it makes him a hot girl so

[opaque coyote]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/211203478284926976/1285783542860746864/rapidsave.com_3dykmkfobdpd1.gif

[queen laurel]

You choose to be here

So deal with the chaos god of autism

[dusk patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/snusnu-zapp-futurama-gif-5132604

[gray umbra]

My autism is powerful

[opaque coyote]

Every 40k fan is on the spectrum

Actually let me correct that

[gray umbra]

Oh you have to be

[opaque coyote]

Every Warhammer fan is on the spectrum

[gray umbra]

I can barely explain the setting to anyone not already interested

Practically incoherent

[dusk patrol]

It takes a minute

[opaque coyote]

"-AND THE GOLDEN MAN DECIDED TO SEND ALL OF HIS SONS WITH HIS SEED INSIDE OF HIM TOWARDS THE PLANET MURDER!"

[shell mason]

Laati

you can't be this Autistic

it's not allowed

[dusk patrol]

It as good way to tell if a girl likes you. If she’s willing to listen to you talk about Warhammer.

[opaque coyote]

You think this is the depths?

You're at the surface

Jump in the pool

wear your floaties

[gray umbra]

This is me explaining 40k to my gf

[queen laurel]

Yeah but warhammer is also an effective woman repellent

So it's a game of gambling with that one

[opaque coyote]

"The skeleton people ruined everything. Then the elves ruined everything. Then the local immortal dad ruined everything. And now everything is fucked."

[green loom]

I've deduced that most warhammer fans are total and utter hogwash at explaining

[arctic talon]

What’s new

[dusk patrol]

It depends on how you bring it up, the only time I’ve ever talked about is if it comes up when talking about interests

[opaque coyote]

To be fair, it's probably because the setting is basic just by it's roots.

But we're so focused on the little details and certain things that it becomes complicated to explain for us.

[queen laurel]

Yeah i only we also really bring it up that way when i'm talking about myself or something

[gray umbra]

My gf thinks eldar corsairs and sisters of battle are cool

The only thing she hates is servitorization

[opaque coyote]

Because in general, the setting is literally just "Extremely Dark Space Opera"

[queen laurel]

Tell her about Tyranids

[green loom]

"So anyway the war in heaven was this huge war trillions of years ago-"
"Wtf dude I asked about the Catachan"

[shell mason]

dear god

[gray umbra]

She thinks nids are cool

[green loom]

Its literally the fkn

Putin interview

[gray umbra]

She painted the nids from the starter set

[queen laurel]

The meme proves itself

[dusk patrol]

It’s just a good gauge of if a girl actually wants to just talk to you if she’s willing to listen to you talk about a subject she doesn’t really care about or try to engage with it, this goes for anything though.

[opaque coyote]

Why are all the (four) women who get into Warhammer also into tyranids

I guess bc spacebugs

[arctic talon]

People always over explain

[opaque coyote]

bugs are cool

[arctic talon]

It’s weird

Just tell the person what they want to know

Lol

[queen laurel]

There is literally a meme where a lot of girls in warhammer play nids or night lords

Don't ask why i don't know

[opaque coyote]

yapping is fun

[queen laurel]

I mean if they're willing to listen to me yep i already appreciate it but if they actually remember some of the things i said hey i might just accidentally poison you food because i am willing to cook for you

[green loom]

"How do I make a sandwich"
"So at the dawn of time there was nothing-"

[opaque coyote]

IG it's a case of

"Aren't you tired of being nice?"

"Don't you just want to go apeshit?"

[dusk patrol]

The key to a women’s heart is to learn how to make a couple dishes super well.

[opaque coyote]

and also don't be mean

[rocky gale]

Because Tyranids are cute

[queen laurel]

I am not mean i'm just very honest when it comes to things

[queen laurel]

What about night lords what's the explanation on that one also cool?

[dusk patrol]

I have met an uncomfortable amount of women in the hobby who really like Curze.

“I can change him” is real

[shell mason]

Fucking ew

[opaque coyote]

Women stereotypically like sewing.

And the night lords are also very good at that!

[shell mason]

I like sewing

[rocky gale]

All women deep down have a primal urge to wear mens skin like a cloak

[queen laurel]

That is as good as reason as i'm going to get

All right then

[dusk patrol]

People are simply creatures, and we like stupid shit which is dumb to be attracted to

Serial Killers are hot to a lot of women for whatever reason too

It’s just a dumb fantasy

[shell mason]

@opaque coyote 👆

[opaque coyote]

I remember seeing a fandom for the columbine school shooters on tumblr

I don't go on tumblr

anymore

[shell mason]

Eternal speaking that facts

[queen laurel]

Yeah let's try to avoid that

[dusk patrol]

It’s silly but it’s how it is

[queen laurel]

It is what it is

[opaque coyote]

People like random shit

[queen laurel]

Some people are just crazy some people are like zero turtle what can you do

[shell mason]

in all seriousness I like laughing at others stupidity

[gray umbra]

Talos is "i can change him" energy for real

[opaque coyote]

But I can I swea-

wait

[shell mason]

what's wrong with people like me?

[gray umbra]

Causing a psychic blackout on one page and freeing his slaves onnthe next

[opaque coyote]

You're gag

normal

[queen laurel]

Did i say something wrong with you?

I didn't

[shell mason]

ya did

[opaque coyote]

silly

[queen laurel]

Don't worry man don't be paranoid

[gray umbra]

He wanted to be a hero dontchaknow

[opaque coyote]

"A little bit of tomfoolery" Kharn said before going into the orphanage.

[gray umbra]

Lol

[shell mason]

I just like my digital foot print being relatively clean

[queen laurel]

Yes i love my orphan decapitators chapter

[shell mason]

and not

like ya'll

[opaque coyote]

that moment is actually one of my favorite cause it shows how fucked the space marine process is

[queen laurel]

If you wanted to be clean why do you choose to be here

[dusk patrol]

Speaking of autism

What did ADB mean by this?

[opaque coyote]

https://tenor.com/view/sxf-opening-spy-x-family-opening-walkinggggg-lets-go-gif-3277601213997883431

my digital footprint

[queen laurel]

Haha

[shell mason]

I like watching people be dirty

[queen laurel]

Autistic silence is a funny f****** thing

[gray umbra]

Good ol night lords

[queen laurel]

All right planetary governor don't need to feed your ego that much

[opaque coyote]

The legendary Night Lords technique

[gray umbra]

https://tenor.com/view/run-gif-20710858

Or that one jojo part 2 scene

[rocky gale]

Alright Pervert

[shell mason]

what... what do i make of this?

[opaque coyote]

big feet

big footprint

[queen laurel]

I mean they are terror tactics specialist and stealth specialist

[shell mason]

[queen laurel]

Fighting on the front lines is quite literally suicide

[opaque coyote]

https://tenor.com/view/stupid-stoopid-cat-game-vr-gif-10800356129691145186

[shell mason]

Bruh

[opaque coyote]

They also basically are constantly scavenging and barely scraping by

they aren't equipped for an actual equal fight

[shell mason]

some people are into that shit

[queen laurel]

Yeah when a night lord gets caught in an equal fight it's over

[shell mason]

big feet i think

[queen laurel]

Either they win that or they get absolutely brutalize

[opaque coyote]

...the fact that you immediately go to that means that you're weird

[gray umbra]

Feet?

[queen laurel]

Yeah bro is one kinky guy

[shell mason]

you posted it not me

[gray umbra]

Socks on or off

[queen laurel]

you said you like watching dirty things

Oh great champion of slannesh

[gray umbra]

[dusk patrol]

Elbow grease

[shell mason]

like you lot

you dirty creatures

[shell mason]

The moon presence from BB is a tzeentch demon cmm

[opaque coyote]

we turn into a baby tzeentch daemon

[shell mason]

https://tenor.com/view/full-moon-bloodborne-gif-13663686

[opaque coyote]

wait does that mean that we essentially became a daemon prince

honestly bloodborne could easily be a warhammer game if you just like

changed some names around

[shell mason]

yes

[opaque coyote]

more importantly

when will it be released onto pc

remastered

sony please

[shell mason]

Honestly can't wait for the grim protocol update

[opaque coyote]

same

[shell mason]

I will say this tho

[opaque coyote]

gonna play the shit out of it in winter break lo

[shell mason]

People say they want a remaster of bb but who is gonna play it?

Bb aged well relatively speaking

[gray umbra]

I would

God damn that setting is cool

[shell mason]

it could get a legend of kain remaster

[opaque coyote]

many tbh

it being ps4 exclusive kinda stunted it a bit playerbase wise

still got good sales and a diehard community over it in spite of that

[shell mason]

prehaps

[opaque coyote]

It would help if it was actually competently remastered

like idk

having it at 60 fps

since it's locked at 30

[gray umbra]

Unlocking frames might be all thats needed tbh

Feel like bloodborne would have a pretty healthy pvp community too

Chikage my beloved

[shell mason]

yes

[opaque coyote]

Although obviously bug fixing and such would be nice

Because I like it when remasters actually

Y'know

fucking remaster the game

[shell mason]

chill man

[sour hornet]

nah

let em cook

🗣️🗣️

[dapper gyro]

That moment GW with all of its wisdom put the autogun weight more than the heavy stubber...

[storm jungle]

wat

[dapper gyro]

I talk about the lore thing. Not your game.

[storm jungle]

?

[outer wave]

You wanna explain a bit more by what you mean?

[storm jungle]

Yeah I got no idea lol

Schrodinger's Stubber?

[outer wave]

Schrodinger's Autogun

[dapper gyro]

In some book, I don't remember which, says that the autogun is 7 to 8kg, then in some other, the heavy stubber is about 7kg.

[outer wave]

Ahh

[storm jungle]

Theres your mistake

[dusk patrol]

Obviously mixed it up with the light stubber

[storm jungle]

In some book

Its inconsistent

dont get too worried about it

[dusk patrol]

Probably Dark Heresy, the weapon weights are uh

Funny sometimes

[arctic talon]

Dark heresy has

[storm jungle]

Authors get a lot of details mixed up in general

[arctic talon]

prolly the most fucked up weight system

I've seen in any 40k TTRPG

[dusk patrol]

The strength levels rising is fucking hilarious

[arctic talon]

Oh its great lol

[dapper gyro]

It makes it hard to argue with hardcore wh40k lore nerds...

[storm jungle]

Thats the thing

its an eternal cycle

[arctic talon]

Imperium Maledictums weights are like

[storm jungle]

also like in this regard its not hard

[arctic talon]

slightly more sane imo

[dusk patrol]

[storm jungle]

a stubber or a autogun can be literally any type of weapon

so like it gets even more complex lol

[dapper gyro]

I know that

[storm jungle]

basically just dont worry about it

its not that big of a deal

[dusk patrol]

Also who gives a fuck

[arctic talon]

but it uses like a vague encumberance thing

instead of actual weight system lol

[dusk patrol]

That’s why I have Lydia

[storm jungle]

Bruh

the carrier-bitch

😭

[dusk patrol]

She is sworn to carry my burdens

[storm jungle]

Sworn to carry my burdens

YEET

[arctic talon]

there is some goofy stuff in Maledictum due to how vague weight is

like a Hotshot lasgun and a heavy bolter being the equal "encumbrance" level lol

[storm jungle]

I assume the guy writing it was low on coffee

[dusk patrol]

Whomp whomp

[dapper gyro]

I just enjoy to put in some hard science in to magical sci-fi.

[storm jungle]

Uh

thats bad

dont do that

[arctic talon]

highest encumberance in Maledictum for guns is the lascannon

with a rating of 4 lol

[dusk patrol]

Deathwatch technically letting you yeet tanks around with one hand eventually if you get your toughness and strength high enough is always amusing

[dapper gyro]

😢

[arctic talon]

Which yeah I guess it makes sense

you can hipfire a las cannon

its just going to fucking suck

[storm jungle]

Its fine to apply realism to some parts of 40k, thats usually the universal role. Even authors do that because it needs to be understandable to the reader.

The problem is most of said research is done through google and not actual experts

But we manage, mostly

[arctic talon]

Google says there's 40,000 warhammers

[storm jungle]

die

[dusk patrol]

That’s like trying to inject a thoughtful critique of the socio economic system and state of the world in an Adam Sandler comedy

You could try but

[arctic talon]

behold the heaviest gun in maledictum

oh none of the stats

fucks sake lol

[storm jungle]

The universal rule in those movies is Adam Sandler is the best person in the whole world, always gets a sexy latino wife (preferably Salma Hayek) and everyone loves him.

[dusk patrol]

“How heavy is it?”

“4”

[arctic talon]

It is 4 heavy

whatever 4 means

[storm jungle]

is this gonna be on the test sir

[arctic talon]

No

[storm jungle]

[arctic talon]

this is the scale

they give as an example lol

[dusk patrol]

Hand flamer having the same encumberance as a long las is

Interesting
