#Builds for Shouty Bois

since like bandit said you're only gonnna be max damaging 4 people cause of cleave cap
and it's not like the cleave damage scales hard enough - you basically lose 70% of first target damage on 4th target hit, against most armour types
anyone have tips on what to roll for on the dueling sword
High in all damage scores, uncanny+ precog. Riposte, shred, rampage all being okay secondary blessings
Can they remove hunting ground and sniper conditions 
Which blessings should i use for combat knife?
lacerate fleshtearer trust
uncanny+ precog or riposte, or precog+riposte if you are running piety keystone
uncanny+flesh tearer if you are wanting to force bleed
Thanks
live dangerously pilgrims
any updated evic XV build?
Nothing has dramatically changed for xv evi
Same blessings, piety crit is still lower value but doable
hmm thx
Rending blessing???
Opportunist - 10/15/20/25% rending against staggered enemies
I did. It doesn’t seem to do anything relevant 
meh
it's low rending value and evi has good adms
i feel like it hits a nice BP on crushers, not one hit kill but can follow up with another heavy
few days back i got told that heavy chainswords are bad with crit, so building it on chastise and blazing is bad idea? should i go middle for the cross and what as cappoint? playing melee with heavy chainsword as horde clearer and using bolter for butchering packs of strong enemies, ty .)
Blazing Piety is not a bad keystone for Eviscerators per se - they just don't get as much benefit from using them as weapons with better crit/finesse in general, but it's workable (still probably worst keystone choice, unless you are taking Blazing Piety left branch upgrades for crit synergy with your allies in coherency)
Heavy chainsword is called eviscerator here to differentiate
Eviscerators are not horde clear strong weapons, they are elite killers first. The base chainsword is both good with crit and a horde killer
Evis on the other hand only go crit to proc the various bonuses from the tree, mainly cdr, but it’s crit dmg ratios are low
ty, dont remember the names ot be honest, want to start playing again after some time and jsut doing some research about current state of things in game .)
back in the day i played with this and it killed hordes pretty well + ragers didnt had chance while chaining them to death xD
but blazing piety seems like only worthy capstone, dont like middle, what about right one? used that with thunder hammer or knife, but it was like hit, run for some time, repeat, not very big fan of that
it's pure feeling really, it isn't unsafe or dangerous to clear hordes, but in measured performance an evi is a middle of the pack at horde clear
Inexorable judgement is just a good well rounded keystone
meanwhile chsword is some of the fastest horde clear in the game. I personally wouldn't match evi with bolter just cause having to slower weapons that both specialize in elite killing
also yea, your perks and blessings are scuffed asf
oh yeah, was glad i got at least something out of rng .)
a bolter feels jsut good to pull out when things go south
it got buffed i red here
hey guys was curious if anyone had an evicereator build going just dropped one from mission with a good dumpstat
and wanted to give it a go
mow down hordes of trash with the horizontal slash and rev it up for killing carapace
it's a simple weapon, needs little investment
Evis pairs well with a classic martyrdom build, since it's kinda slow
Something like this should do the trick
Central path at the start was there to get the heal after being damaged, and I put the extra points there.
However, there's another way to do it, by shaving either perk leading to the stun grenade, and grab shield of comtempt + Thy Wrath be swift
Something like this
You don't get the heal back, but shield of comtempt offer massive DR%, and no stun on hit. The last part is not mandatory, and could be seen as comfort or crutch.
currently running it with a IJ build
but that does seem interesting
what kind of ranged would you pair with it
I wouldn’t recommend either of these, as they are both missing Duelist and Second Wind
you need twbs but imo you cna drop punishment and shield of contempt
tbh martyrdom really likes going down the nade paths
comparitively
but yea
you need duelist
and punishment nerfs make it not worth
Reasons why I don’t run grenades on any of my zealot builds
I never considered duelist because I'm... stupid. But you're right, that's definitely something I should swap for instead of Punishment
guys
rate my build
Thy Wrath Be Swift is literally RIGHT THERE
Yeah chain/power/generally slow weapons really want TWBS. Take the points out of Disdain and Blood Redemption for it.
Would also recommend switching Wrath for Rampage. Mk15 Evis only damages 4 enemies with light attacks so extra cleave is only helping you stagger more chaff. Rampage (despite saying Damage) grants Power, which improves Damage, Stagger, and (for what it's worth) Cleave.
I disagree, I almost never use TWBS with evisc / TH and it feels perfectly fine if you use the push attack often enough
It's mandatory on flamer for sure though
Ofc if you're already going down the right path, take TWBS : It's a crazy good node, but most of my best builds don't use it
You can disagree all you want, push attacks don’t solve the issue with interrupted attacks, mainly thrust and rev’d attacks
Yet it does for me : I don't know what else to say, I legitimately never felt any need to use TWBS with TH/Evisc, and not spending 4 talents points to get them on some builds goes a long way to make these weapon significantly stronger than what you can achieve if you always go for TWBS no matter what
what build do you spend 4 points for twbs, it's 2 usually
I'd really have to see gameplay footage because the standard experience of chain and thunder hammer without twbs is "lone poxwalker just stunned me"
not to mention how good twbs is (but more of an optional choice) outside of those situations
punishment can kinda "cope" but both chain weapons and thunderhammer don't really go that way
Don't go wrath on mk15, go rampage, or if you are wanting to stick to the cleave, use perfect strike instead
Don't triple stack gunner resist cause diminishing returns, sub one out for a sniper and you get massive sniper tanking breakpoints
drop blood redemption and disdain for thy wrath be swift
mk15 has a target cap of 4 so disdain is only 10% damage boost, which isn't needed for any breakpoints at the level martyrdom is at
Diminishing returns is not an important factor. Big number good.
For gunner resist it absolutely is
I personally like the 3x even with diminishing
It's not a ton more value but it's still good
Certainly a valid reason to only run 2 however
I don't really get the hate toward "diminishing returns", since that's what allows the math to be coherent. If it was additive instead of multiplicative, it would make DR completely busted
If it was 50% instead (Half damage taken), getting it twice would result in 75% DR (1/4 damage taken) and not 100% (total immunity) : You can clearly see that the first 50% are much less valuable than the remaining 50% that separate you from 100% : The multiplicative formula is compensating this inherent power by turning something that would be exponential with an additive formula into something linear : Simply put, you get as much value from the 3rd 20% DR curio than you get from the first, even if the total % of DR incrase by a lower amount
Now you are absolutely allowed to say that you don't need that much DR, and that 36% is fine, but getting from 36% to 49% if much more valuable than getting from 0% to 13% for example. For an extreme example, getting from 0 to 13% DR mean that people need to deal 13% more of their damage to kill you. But getting from 98% to 99% mean that people need to deal 2 x their damage to kill you : This 1% makes a ton of difference when you're close to the max, while 13% barely make any when you're at the bottom. This single 1% in this example is effectively several times stronger than the 13%
Gimme your best Dueling Sword and/or combat axe builds. I put stealth on both c axe and dueling sword builds but am looking to see what other people are running.
Combat axe is basic IJ or martyr build. With the duelling sword I would go IJ or Piety
Is there something to do w/ Fury & Eviscerator ? Someone gave me a build like this eons ago, but I kinda don't like it
fury of the faithful ability? you need to charge after your hit connects or else you won't get the full bonus
No, Fury as the keystone which gives 15/25% crit chance
Despite having shred and bloodletter, evisc doesn't work too well with Blazing Piety because of its 1.4x crit/weakspot mod
Ah, it's piety, not fury, apologies for the mixup.
What would be a good melee with this Keystone then, except from Knife ?
You can literally never go wrong with Inexorable Judgment (momentum/IJ)
Its left subnode is pretty niche but the right subnode is entirely mandatory to get use out of it
That's the keystone of all my zealot builds yes, momentum is just too versatile and good, but I was wondering if there is something good to extract out of Piety
It also gives a whole heap of unlisted dodge buffs btw
It works better on other weapons that actually benefit more from critting stuff
I was asking about such weapons in the first place 😅
List of stuff with good finesse
Cool
Uhh
Crusher, Knife, Dueling sword, Devlis Claw (crits are borderline required to get its flak armor damage literally anywhere), Heavy Sword (especially useful because crits help its terrible Carapace armor damage), Tactical Axes, Standard Chainsword (not entirely great finesse but it has some weird interactions with critical cleave damage distribution)
Thank you :)
Have you tried Stalwart?
Also that stalwart isn't a meme anymore
The crit share node still kind of is but Stalwart gives 25% TDR and an unlisted 2% toughness from all kills
evisc doesn't scale well with crit compared to other weapons, it simply has some synergy blessings (shred or bloodthirsty_
Something like this would be highly tanky, and the Mk15 Evis is lethal enough on its own that you won't miss the damage boost from IJ or Martyr as much as some other weapons might.
Doesn't crit as often as fast weapons but you can use Bloodthirsty to gain the benefits of Enduring Faith and Invocation of Death almost on demand, or just use Shred to rely on random crits instead of having to Rev. Plus you have the guaranteed crit from FotF x2 in any case.
Run with a shred headtaker flak carapace mk 2 tac axe for maximum funny
Surgical is really that good for Spearhead Boltgun?
Is not Cavalcade or Shattering better?
only for veteran
for zealot, we aren't wanting to hold out the bulky boltgun all the damn game, so yea, you go pinning + cavalcade or shattering
maybe fire frenzy if you are using it specifically for low tier elites
I use it for everything really
Elites, boss, range, trash mobs
Any OP Thunder Hammer tree out there?
nothing outside the normal throwing knives->stealth or chastise->inexorable judgement
shoutout to puncture + shattering
Puncture shattering gives you a really nice fixed crusher breakpoint from any range
Shattering isn't great against unyelding sadly
Hey guys, I'm looking for a good charge build with fire/flashbang grenades, to use with chainsword/DS and some form of pistol for special removal. I was using the one called "zealot meta" on games lantern but apparently that's laughably bad, I dunno. I know mostly the good builds use throwing knives but I'd really like the grenades to help with revives. Anyone able to help me out?
I copied this #zealot-class message
why are you going thudnerous, go slaughter instead
curios are fine, why are you going through beacon cause lol you have no Damage reductoin on your talent tree
i'd at least swap to piety's stalwart defensive path if you didn't want to change any pathing
not actually sure why I was going thunderous, that's just what my crusher has
thought beacon would be nice to have for havocs but I didn't realise I'd gotten rid of all my damage reduction
also realised I dropped double dash by accident
mainly just wanted the build I was running before but with knives
Thunderous isn't very good
Best blessings for this are some combination of Thrust, Slaughterer, Hammer blow and Skull Crusher
hammerblow isn't needed with slaught existing
you basically go slaught+skullcrusher or slaugh+thrust, mainly cause skullcrusher and thrust have a level of anti synergy
I ended up binning the build because I didn't want to explode in Havocs but I appreciate the advice
Quite a lot of poor talents
oh? i havent played in a while. what have i got wrong
A lot
Dont take disdain and ewew, take purge the unclean instead of fellowship, don’t take any of the stuff below 10% attack speed
Dont take blood redemption
Get sustained assault and duelist at least
- Duelist is non-negotiable, doubly so for a high finesse weapon like Dueling Sword.
- Disdain is poor for any weapon without very good cleave (and in any case only applies to every 2nd attack).
- Enemies Within, Enemies Without and Blood Redemption are mid at best.
- Fortitude in Fellowship is terrible (coherency toughness regen is disabled when you are being targeted in melee, which as a Zealot is most of the time)
- Martyr's Purpose is awful, it applies only to health damage taken and even then doesn't provide much. Invocation of Death is
blatantly overpoweredall the cooldown reduction you need. - You dont need Faith's Fortitude (or Wound trinkets for that matter) if you aren't actually going for Matryrdom, get things that prevent you going down in the first place (like Until Death)
Second Wind is a much better method of regenerating toughness in combat, especially with a highly mobile weapon like a dueling sword.
Sustained Assault is basically +4-20% free damage, it's very hard to justify not taking it
Then get like, second wind with the last two points
Ewew isn’t bad persay it’s more so just not worth the investment and pathing
But blood redemption is pretty mid
so something like this?
You still want Shield of Contempt if you are getting Beacon of Purity
Until Death is left off this one just because it's hard to find the points. This is part of why most builds outside Havoc use Throwing Knives—they are getting Second Wind anyways.
oh alr yeah that seems better
Why swap sides on middle part
Shield of contempt pathing was fine
This is good
thx yall
Go slaught instead of hammerblow and nearly any other perk over crit chance
Dump collateral on bistol, not mobility
You have invocation of death there is no reason to run ability cdr curios getting micro seconds of value
Take scourge instead of blood redemption
No sustained assault hurts
Probably drop twbs or purge the unclean path to grab it
Im not doing this for you
Im doing this for newbs who might stumble upon it
Someone in zealot chat got very angry at me the other day because I told them CDR curio is practically worthless, ESPECIALLY with IoD which he said he also uses
I posted a video of it still being practically 10s cd with and without curios and he's like "what does that prove"
Genuinely thought it was ragebait but he was serious
Yea
Thought on this build?
I should kill you where you stand
Why
Knife is horrific
Curios are some of the worst I've seen
No until death
Loner shroudfield (isn't bad but I judge you for it)
Retribtors stance
NO SECOND WIND DESPITE TKNIVES PATHING
It's not my build
Then don't run it
How bout this https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9aafd02e-2d1f-444f-8d9e-e12295da65c1/the-bestest-most-powerfulest-build-ever
This one is actually funny and I know for a fact its a cole creation
"Meta slave knife build"
looks inside
stealth

This is some true solo build that the vast majority of people aren’t gonna play anyways
Crit perk on knife
No second wind
1 stamina curio
That's not a solo build, that's hot trash
1 stamina too little or too much
Wait did he not take second wind lol I must have missed that
As soon as I saw the knife I knew it was ultracooked
Both knives like spamming PA so the better you are = the less toughness curio u take = the more stamina u take
1 stam curio, noob made that guide
knife basically means u have no excuse to get hit
so busted
That knife setup is a war crime too
FT with base crit chance
I stand by this being an appropriate reaction
Yes
Where is a good stealth build
The top rated shroudfield build is a mister E build I dunno if I wanna link that
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9d3d6d10-a5f1-4bc6-802d-ee011e9034db/mister-es-rat-king-v20
LMAO
its a good build
trust me
even the person who made it said they soloed the entirety of havoc with it
and no one would ever lie on the internet
theres even a video of gameplay footage there
bruh
i'm going to die of cringe
from the thumbnail alone
BOTH (VIABLE) CDR TALENTS
CDR ON CURIOS
Where can I find a good stealth build
By changing everything
Nah, knife perks/blessings aside I like it a lot
I'm at work so i can't make you a good stealth build
I'm sure cole could if he wants to
Otherwise you'll have to wait for me to get off
I’ll do it for you dw bro
Piety is the best keystone but yeah
Let's see it then
Honestly a lot of ways to build stealth it’s great
Frown
I'm waiting to make fun of him until i see if he spits out garbage or something good
meta ability spam
drop shroudfield last node and enduring for until death and Rev imo but yeah
that's fine
👍
gj
nah dont need until death here xd
the problem with this build is flamer is weak without annoint
you can do a non IoD build and it'll perform fine
or a Bolter with Ambuscade for giga damage
Does anoint buff burn stacks
Also toughness regen curios are cool with loner
yes try it in psyk
it's too much damage to give up tbh
Whaaaaaat
hnnbhhhh h bbbnnh h hbhb
U know
With stealth since u won't have fotf
Piety might be good for adms
on carapace enemies
piety knife isn't. Ad
what is adms
ye but knife is the one weapon that doesn't rly need piety
you just
riposte or get scourge stacks on 20% base crit
and stealth is guaranteed crit, you just maximize CDR ability spam
This is what I am running, I have only been experimenting with stealth zealot for about a week so take it with a grain of salt https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9de8a407-9563-42b5-9bfe-8fc94d11040b/noob-zealot
I run flamer a lot too
Take off crit chance for unyielding
you dont need 5% crit over 25% damage on something
With flamer get annoint always
That's great but take off the last shroudfield node and out on sustained assault on bottom right
Then it's basically perfect
10/10 talent setup
don't listen to him
until death is a requirement until u never die or proc it on your own
skill based node
if ur asking about how to build stuff, u need it
stealth is ur cheat death xddd
no offense
And yeah drop crit on knife, and change bolter to shatter/puncture flak/unyielding
What about knives high crit damage and zealot crit interactions? What about flak maniac?
Well you're Piety on Knife and you have scourge you'll be critting anyway
Most maniac enemies die in 1 hit anyway
unyielding good for bossing and also FUCK bulwarks
Flak + uny is fine
You'll hit near max crit already, 25% more damage is way more important than 5 more crit
Take puncture and shatter on the bolter
Shatters brittleness stacking affects bleed damage which makes it very strong
And what is ambuscade
the right side talents above loner
that and good balance I'd recommend over the left side in general
only reason to take tbws is flamer tbh, but even then
What's that do again?
30% damage on range backstab
Makes sense
Yeah you don't need twbs on knife
I only take it on weapons that need heavy attacks to clear enemies
Like thammer
And blazing piety for dueling sword and momentum for knife? Is dueling sword or knife better for stealth zealot?
no
while piety can be used on virtually any weapon with a finesse modifier, momentum is the best keystone for all zealot weapons (if we ignore martyr since it's niche and requires low hp play)
momentum is best for ds and knife
U just have to take invoc with it
U can't really make a meta stealth build cause fotf is better
So what you have is fine
Stealth is better for random games with bad players though
Easier to revive and rescue
Hrup will say piety is the best but he's the only one to do that because he plays in malice

Not if u just kill everything on the map yourself.
Smile
That's what alot of ppl take a long time to realize
The best way to help your team is honestly typically to just kill everything
Carry, don't feed them to the heretics by reviving deadweight
But again it's a game u can play whatever u want
I feel keeping your team alive is easier than soloing the map
Not rlly
Managing a situation vs managing the fallout of the situation
You can get the revive off and they could just slump over dead cuz you're overwhelmed
If u kill everything nothing can kill them
And if you base your build around being the team mom and keeping them alive, if they're all collectively too useless to clear the level.. you just lose
But stealth revives are practically free
So is killing everything and -then- reviving them
A good dps build can make room for a safe revive like 99% of the time
Ur immune to melee attacks as long as you have stamina you know
Auto block
And gunners can't really shoot through hordes
The only time I have failed a mission with stealth builds is making a critical dumb error like dodge off a ledge and the team immediately wipes
Even just pressing F to stun everything near you with fotf dash is often enough to get someone up safely
Being able to revive anyone downed at any time has not been a detriment
We're not saying stealths terrible or unplayable, but it's 100% not the best cause u can do the same stuff and take a better skill
Just speaking in context of meta or "best"
Plenty of ppl play stealth
And the damage is still good and the ability to kill high threat targets is very good
Piety is the best overall Keystone btw
Fotf gives more damage and two charges.
Please don't listen to hrup. Any competent player will tell you piety isn't the best.

For Charge and Chorus, it's the best
I use piety on everythin
Stealth uses IJ better
The only time I take stealth is when I join a game and assume that players are gonna be going down a lot
Cuz it's silly
Piety is fun
I've never seriously used stealth
Ij is objectively undisputedly better for most weapons
Tbh I honestly think, like personally, a stealth zeal is kinda a hindrance
heheh xdddddd
Aggro dumping on the nearest noob
Or a chorus
Theyre off doing their own thing and I know they wont have any of our backs
Theyre unaccounted for constantly
They kind of do damage and they kind of participate in crowd control but theyre not built well for either
I know a FotF zeal will be front lining with me and paying attention to specials
That's a bad stealth zealot
I know they will haz my backe..
Piety: Better point economy, more Enduring Faith uptime, more crit resets, and synergy with duelists 50% crit modifier.
IJ: better dodges tbh
Nop
but its really not easy to be a good one
I yapping
First u didn't know how invoc works
Now u don't know how ij works
stealth zealot has massive impact
I'm unsurprised
just
tbh
15% attack speed is a LOT
like thats a lot for offense and defence
if you want the 10% attack speed on IJ you have to give something up
which is why I say piety has better point eco
(You don't, this guy just religiously takes anoint and purge)
Stealth has more utility than fotf as far as revives and objectives go
That's giving something up
And I would rather have a good stealth zealot than fotf relic blade zealot number 472 who cleaves pox hordes and goes down the second a bulwark shows up
idk how thats copy pasta worthy
🔊 🔥
stealth zealot is an asset like everyone else
stealth being useful when things are already going wrong is just not something i think is that valuable in a kit
And all weapons is misinfo tbh. A lot of heavy weapons with big stagger can't reliably upkeep 15% stacks
its ideal to make it to where things dont go wrong to begin with
you need to be aggro with stealth zealot
I use this w ij
stealth veteran is built for helping when things go wrong
The influx of bad players with Xbox release pushed me to try stealth zealot. I take it because it's easier to play independent with a terrible team. On a good team I take fotf or chorus
It's ok I can't clown on hrup too hard bc when I was a noob I also shilled for piety rlly hard until I sat down and looked at the numbers and talent setups u could do with ij
He will get there eventually
I'm a believer !!
For charge
I used to be an IJ shill
if only chained deathblow wasnt in competition with DB and HT
IJ is generally the best I think in terms of being consistently good
You can get 12 - 15 stacks in melee if you dodge
A high dodge weapon benefits tremendously with IJ
DClaw, DSs, HSwords etc
Dodge cooldown timer being incredibly low w it synergizes w it well
I'm sorry you regressed
So ur turning urself into a supreme horde mulcher w the hsword
But it's not good w all wpns
Or something like the thammer
Piety rlly isnt an option
Crusher etc
Anything w good anti armor but meh swing speeds or damage on some enemies
Like the THammer w Ragers
crusher can work with piety due to the finesse scaling on some attacks
Crusher is quirky w the finesse multipliers
But they're like yah
On some attacks
Crusher piety is the best by far
It's a quirknificent pick
crusher cant stack IJ well anyway
Yah it can lol
Doesnt it have 4 dodges ?
With ff and ij swing speed + the damage it's rlly awesome
You're a sustain mixed horde controller
I do
Ive been playin this game a looong time
Playstyle difference i guess
I notice im somewhere between meow and dorn
So I prefer sustain over dps
I'm sure
But like both
Troo !
Dont mean in terms of skill btw they're both wayyyy better than me, but in like playstyle
Dorn is hold S meow is hold W
Flip u hrup now i want 2 play darktide
I'm sorry for ur loss
Hold W gaming is so much more fun than Hold S gaming even if S is more tactical
As for Hold D gaming, don't start
I tried the mister E build and meta slave build and not having until death was a major detriment. This is the build I am leaning toward now and feels pretty good to play https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9de981ff-fdb3-456e-93e4-5b2d9127ddc0/sweaty-midwit-zealot-build
This is the only build you need
Ferret tested
Ferret approved
Thanks for the martyrdom build
Do you have the video? I used CDR on curios by accident yesterday with IOD.
Ye, I got one with just the 3x curios equipped
thank you mate!
Yeah that was me
It’s because the video doesn’t prove anything idk what it’s supposed to convey without proper numbers or a direct comparison without cdr curios
And hitting afk mobs in the psykhanium cannot show the value as much as actually gameplay can
Basic math tells us that +200% regeneration=300% regeneration
A cooldown of 30 seconds becomes 10 seconds with 100% uptime which is very easy
All three CDR curios plus IoD uptime is still almost 10 seconds, barely even saves half of a second if that, and it is easy to time it yourself if you don't require everyone else to do the easy work for you
Run what you like, I'm just saying you get very little bang for your buck
And also to probably not recommend that to new players without first telling them this
ehh?
in real gameplay
you can easily crit every 4 seconds
it's not difficult if your build is crit adjacent in the slightest
how i see it, +200% vs +212% is so minor it's not worth going.
and even on builds without cdr, 12% is nice, but it's still an anemic boost
the cdr curios don't speed up your CDR like the talent, it reduces the cooldown so it's not 212% like you think
Soingy thinks that video is the end all be all proof that CDR curios aren't good so I don't want to argue with him anymore
You don't "easily" crit every 4 seconds unless you're piety with a crit weapon, and even then there's value because like I said, it isn't 212%. They're worded the same but act differently
it comes out to less than a second of difference either way
then imo, don't run IoD on a weapon that doesn't crit every 4 seconds when every 10 seconds you would get a guaranteed crit as well
for other abilities, sure, maybe there is more use, but fotf has max value at 10 second cd
You run IoD on every weapon because of the immense value from even 1 crit
almost like cdr nodes not named martyr purpose needs to be shot in the kneecap
but IoD isn't really relevant to the discussion imo
cdr curios are calculated differently, they just reduce the base cooldown
and that's good because it's up more often when you need it to be up
how often do you "need" vs want
vanilla martyrdom alone proves you don't NEED an extra 2-0.5 seconds shaved off your 10 second cd
well it's 3.6 seconds off of each charge cast
to effectively 7.2 seconds when both charges are concerned
both charges don't regen at the same time
but yea
that doesn't explain the video, jsut that it upsets you
Idk what that video he's showing is supposed to show
it's showing the effective cooldown of IoD with and without cdr curios lmao
It doesn't have numeric ui to actually see the numbers, and doesn't draw a comparison to not running cdr curios
you aren't this dense
But there's no comparison
you can track time with any video player
i don't use 2 charges when i have IoD but then again
The video is just full of holes and doesn't really prove any point
i am a purist who doesn't like using IoD as a crutch for every build
a crutch right
i only use it for crit weapons
IoD is the most overtuned shit imaginable and enables silly builds to be 'viable' that really have no right to be
you shouldn't be awarded infinite cdr cause you run a crit chaxe
That's how zealot is currently and that's what is meta
No need to be coy just do it
they would've gotten me
It's a pve game anyway not like you're smurfing in bronze elo
it's a pve game so lets keep things overpowered where things that can't feasibly be buffed to that level suffer in the dirt
don't strawman me, ferret boy
like, how fuckin tuned will they have to make martyr's purpose to match IoD
give them 8 months the game is still in closed beta
nah
crystal ball says buffs to psyker, and smite in particular
smite now gets a damage increase for every carapace enemy currently stunned by it!
ogryn will get one gamebreaking build that they will insist isn't actually strong
vet gets nothing, somehow this is still a buff
Am I schizo am I going insane
Is the video longer than 16 seconds
Is it drawing a comparison?
This is an actual question
I already answered you but you're not listening
Chastise CD with IoD uptime is 10 seconds
Can you understand this before I make my next statement?
The video shows IoD uptime with CDR curios
It's not 10 bro
It sure is
Idk I don't want to do this back and forth
ur ignorant idc
also ur pfp is annoying
Get Numeric UI
Havoc 40 tru solo player use combat regen.
Must be gud
They also used lacerate uncanny too it's better than flesh tearer. 🙂
For piety flesh tearer is better, one of the guys clarified that in the comments. He just so happened to do it with lacerate that game
but yeah uncanny lacerate is goated
Nah not on this comment.
Lacerate uncanny the best.
Wait let me try to find mine
Was the guy a Piety build or IJ?
on IJ Lacerate is the best for sure
Piety
huh
I believe it was the first published havoc 40 tru solo no stealth cheese meme.
I've been really enjoying havoc, i might try some harder maps in the future :3
Sowwy for the shaking with flamer i try to avoid it usually but kinda needed to use it here c:
00:00 Build
01:00 game
I run lacerate uncanny on boht piety and momentum
Yeah but they are meaningless it came from nobodies
with just one scourge stack youll get 55% crit which will end up being more value
Well i'd imagine it came from the uploaders buddiess
with how they worded it
with scourge going beyond 50% crit on piety it makes sense to me that flesh would be bette
It's not about the bleed it's about getting scourge stacks up asap
I think with charge guaranteeing atleast one it's not too much of an issue
well
This is a true solo build after all
How is this the case ?? Is it cuz of the wording ??
I watched ur vid it's like 10 seconds-ish
200% should leave it at 15 noh ?
Oh wait
I think i might be stupid
Is that adding on the 100% regen speed (aka, a second a second) as well
I havent done maffs in many moonz
its 300% in total
Then yah it's 10 seconds
It sort of adds it on though
nah u just dont understand
there's no such thing :/
give me a second pls radeon isnt opening ;-;
No one is ever speaking from experience of actually using it in a game which is why it's hard to convey
They just want to be right
Anyways here it's not 10 seconds
you also have to factor in the time is actually takes to tick down to the 12-13 second mark
I took about 4-5 seconds to reach the 12-13 second mark
I don't think this arguement over how much time IoD takes is relevant though. CDR curios shave time off your ability which is huge value when it needs to be used in the moment.
Just like how many other games have CDR elements to them and it's all extremely valuable because of that fact
regardless of the streangth of IoD
They're almost always valuable because it's a significant enough reduction
Not in this game xd
This isnt factoring in the second after u charge and dont hit a crit, or the rate od change from second-to-second as the timer ticks down; mathematically, it is empirically thus: 200% "regeneration" (300% reduction) will have your ability back in 10 seconds
I mean in general, even 10%. Because you'll have it up in the moment when you need it. And it's more overall casts over the course of a mission
Charge is a guaranteed fucking crit bro
X/30 = 100/300 and allat
Are you not watching the video
If you charge and wait the whole 3 seconds before meleeing, it will be 10 seconds after it takes the 4-5 seconds to tick down WITH CDR CURIOS
A thesaurus won't change that fact
I dont know what we're even arguing anymeowre
300% reduction of 30 is 10
Over 10 seconds
there you go
Doesnt look like 20 SECONDS TO ME does it
anyway the main point is that CDR curios are good but we keep cycling back to IoD tick times for whatever damn reason
Because my main point was that you should probably not be running CDR if you have IoD
Because IoD takes CDR curios out back and shoots it with fifteen magazines
CDR curio by itself, have at it
My point is that it doesn't matter because you're getting the full value of CDR curios regardless of IoD procs. There are no diminishing returns.
also delete ur dumb video
Idk why I trusted the talent tooltip when every single talent is essentially a lie w/o enhanced descriptions
I did
give it an honest shot
I dont like it
I used to run them a lot back in ye olde days
Along w tness regen
Every time I see a legit experience player say it isn't good and spread that word it drives me nuuuuuuuts bro
Because they just don't understand the value
Cole actually showed me the numbers when I was a DT baby yrs ago and I swapped over
The reduction felt negligible when compared to the benefit i could get from other things
without thinking DEEPER about how GOOD THAT ACTUALLY IS
AAAAAAAAH IM GOING INSAAAAAAAANE
Zealot players are sheep and can't think for themselves.
What's the bottom part referring to

Don't get me wrong, I like build diversity
its basically saying theyre calculated differently
But calling CDR curio valuable in the same build as IoD
the cdr curios give the ability base cooldown reduction
while IoD speeds up the tick rate
Yummers
so they dont interact with eachother they are their own seperate thing
I dont run stamina regen on any of my curios either
what do you run
I do 3x combat 3x tough 3x stam regen on my martyrdom
3x combat, 2x tough, 2x stam, and 2x gunner on my basic piety/IJ build
I run stamina regen on two curios i think w the dclaw
But idk i never found a need to use stamina anything
Ive never played knife ever and i never will !!
well then you're a god gamer who can afford to use combat ability regen methinks :)))))
oh
knife is what kept me playing for a long time
that shit is it's own beast I love the damn thing
you should use it
especially if you're interested in true soloing
Call me a purist but i wouldnt count most knife true solos ive seen as true solos at all
They usually just rush past 90% of all opposition on the map and call it a solo
is hrup shilling for cdr curio again
Someone trudging their way through a match w even a ds4 id call a true solo

Or like an evis
I want 2 say meow did that
My fingerz r too weak for the spam required 2 use knife
I get finger pains just playin the smaul or hswords
isn't there a combo mod
please actually play the game
dont call it a true solo if you run past literally everything and break the spawns
So i wont use it
LMFAO
hrup was it you or someone else
Nop
who also says piety is the best keystone zealot has

I generally agree tbh
noobatrice..
I liked piety when everyone HATED it..
And then i used stallie b4 everyone else used it..
Dorn called me cwazy..
Meow too.. she hates my hsword stallie build..
Yah im a hipster.. worship me..
i can just never justify equating 30% crit to 10-15% damage, attack speed, dodge distance, dodge cdr, and all the other junk
mathematically, unless you're using a very crit heavy weapon, you'll just do less damage
stalwart is really nice but theres too many weapons that can have enduring/invoc uptime without piety and your tdr will be fine
And I use high dodge weapons mostly
Stalwart is the true brain-off option
I use stallie w other tdr talents
For multiplicative goodness
Eat crusher overhead 4 lunch
Comparing the two keystones alone IJ is better
Taking any ranged weapon but infantry las and any melee but double impact dclaw is crutch
I tried using ij again and missed my cdr
Hope this helps
but with Enduring Faith, Duelist, and IoD, and 1 extra talent point in the meta build
is why I say piety is better
Ppl 4get what iod was when they swapped over..
almost all of my builds for weapons i use can take induring/iod and still ahve full uptime on them
because most weapon can stack scourge and keep enduring/iod up almost exclusively with that
5 Views. Watch MEOWSSACRE GREAAAHHH FELINID WAMPAGE and millions of other Warhammer 40,000: Darktide videos captured using Medal.
making piety to keep those buffs up redundant
you also get value with duelist even without crits, which makes that less of a piety/crit specific buff
put that mpreg away
and out of the weapons that can't keep those buffs up with scourge, several important ones have shred
which you take on that weapon anyway
Arigatoful
and that really only leaves like
3 weapons? that can't stack scourge + can't take shred?
and out of those 3 weapons.. i think the'yre all slow hitting, which means bad for piety anyway
What
and they all have important ij breakpoints
In my dumb opinion IOD is worth it even if you literally never crit other than the guaranteed one from F of the F
I take piety cuz crushers
let me put it all in one message for you
I know what u said bro I just think you’re exaggerating
you can keep enduring and IOD up with almost every weapon in the game with IJ just because scourge exists
no, i'm not
But idk if I’m in the mood to argue
scourge is rlly easy to keep up
I feel like i never see its icon
and you can have permanent uptime on iod/enduring with just that
Like, ever
One single proc is essentially what, 12 seconds off a 30 second cooldown? 40% shorter cooldown for basically just using your cooldown
For sure man
i have crit chance display mod
and i did all of these tests in real games myself
I need 2 get that
its realllly nice
More uptime better ofc but still
But my hud is already super cluttered
its what showed me relic can't keep scourge up without its cleave blessing
wrath or whatever
I run piety hsword 9.. cuz i miss my rending..

that's it
i'm mpregging you
i honestly dont like hsword
its really nice but
it feels clunky idk
Im a darktide fudd tbh
By your builds do you mean your tac axe because
believe it or not
i play more than tacaxe, hrup
Piety hsword 9
Pretty sure most weapons don’t have a way to increase innate crit
3VEG auric mael w meow
Hawk tuah
Dont need no new fangled compramiclated inexorable sludgement
Good ol crit chance is all ya need i tell u hwaaat
fotf + scourge goes up and stays up for almost the entire horde on most weapons
even relic blade with wrath can keep it up
this is why fast attacking weapons are much better than slow ones with crit builds, they are much more reliable at maintaining scourge due to high attack speed (more chances to crit) and they dont tend to have oneshot breakpoints (no scourge stacks if they die D:)
Double Barrel Shotgun, Combat Shotgun, or Revolver only (nobody needs an Assault VIAG!)
and for the slower attacking weapons... worse issue, even with piety they struggle to maintain scourge.
Or instakill wpns
relic mkx light spam isn't exactly slow but it can't do it without a cleave blessing to force bad bps
Like dblow or bm
^
Scourge uptime isn’t as much as you think bro, especially if you’re one shotting things or don’t have piety
I feel like you’re just saying things to not admit ur wrong tbh
I take it when i play monst. specs
or maybe, i tested these things because i'm obsessive about breakpoints and i want to use the best build i possibly can
Cuz bosses and no enemies means no piety
and the fact that you're not sure means you didn't test them and you're the one talking out of your ass
Means no chastise..
l m a o
Spend the best yrs of my life watchin a number tick down..
Man I’ve used all this shit just as much as everyone else has
U guys r like
I know how fucking invoc you’re just being willfully ignorant to try to convince everyone you’re right
My lil beetlez
Man I’m sick of this
I put into a ring
then scram
And i watch u fling eachother
you're wrong and thats okay hrup
i tested things and you self admittedly didn't
xx
U 2 r probs the most combative and argumentative glooperz in this discord !!
I’ve used every single build in this game bro
Except 4 everyone else
Idk I hate furries
Yo mama
He’ll die before admitting piety is any better so what’s the point
maybe because i don't lie to new players like you do
We share opps
🚬
Also ur pinned builds are shit
Lumii is also my opp..
I like lumiis build
🚬
The piety relic one
(ironically, he doesn't like my piety build)
It's what i use now
I used it in a hav 38 and it was wonderful
Top damaged w max chorus uptime
It was vry pawesome good jorb
Good bye chord 13g
Relic is my new best friend
Wranial
Or crath..
anyway
i'm going to settle this debate now
who wants to see a video of me keeping scourge up instantly with no drops on the mkx
🚬
IJ
Watch scourged... and millions of other Warhammer 40,000: Darktide videos captured using Medal.
but yeah i'm pulling things out of my ass
🚬
as if hitting a horde in a real game would have any different results
then you'd complain "erm that horde was dense.. no fair"
A lot of different variables too consider but you won’t admit any of them
maybe if you tried it instead of petulantly whining you'd be taken seriously
i test things in real games
AHHH FUCK ME I don’t care
im just not in one right now
It’s not worth it
Lmfao
imagine that
Fight bugz fight !
i post proof and he goes "UHH UHHHH HHH PSYK"
as if hordes are different in real games

i have a pic of him saying 'stealth zealot has HUGE impact'
he's like a worse nade i swear
i only take it seriously cause i dont like the idea of a information discord like this straight up giving new players misinformation
i don't think that's cool
Yo mama !
like if you wanna play piety or you want to ask for a piety builds, sure !!
yo daddy
both of them

i'm just gonna keep playing with this and drop these in here for a while

Big horde! Scourge is up the whole time.
Watch erm.... ackchually and millions of other Warhammer 40,000: Darktide videos captured using Medal.

or, i can get 2001'd back to my lobby 3 games in a row

any specific tests you want me to run other than these? Since psych doesn't count.

Tee hee.
Listen man
all i'm saying
is that you can keep enduring/scourge up without piety
thats it!
no other argument made here
and now i've proved it
Piety together with scourge makes the critting and upkeep of scourge, IoD, and Enduring faith a lot more consistent.
since you wanted to straight up call me a liar, i just wanted to show you that you can, hrup.
Also you fought that boss like shit
I’m saying it’s less consistent, and by a considerable margin
its consistent in situations that matter - i dont think waffling over scourge uptime against tiny groups of enemies matters, but against carapace, bosses, and large hordes, its permanently up
Against bosses yeah
Scourge isn’t a replacement for piety though
just to clarify hrup
Piety and scourge go hand in hand even better
i'm specifically just talking about keeping enduring/invoc up with scourge
and saying its possible without piety on ALOT of weapons
even "slow" ones like relic
im not talking about the whole piety keystone grrr argument right now
because thats the statement i made about it
Yeah and I’m saying it’s less consistent overall
Also I’m starting to realize how meaningless this is so
i told you you could get perma uptime and you straight up called me a liar like a little kid, i'm sure it does.
Now that i proved you wrong, run back to your malice games, piety boy.
🚬

Sycorax, mods! it doesn't count!
also, i did my last h40 with iod and crit cdr, did not really feel the difference tbh.. i'd rather have a cdr based on elite or special enemies killed
That's what your pocket psyker is for (among other things)
This has issues
No TWBS on evisc
2/4 evisc roll (shred->savage sweep armor type over crit perk)
@hrup
Died
Rev attacks
not getting your rev attacks broken from a single poxwalker
there is zero need for lethal proximity either
i'm pretty sure it doesn't work on immo nades
take run and gun or surgical instead
0 need to take ability cdr with Invocation of death
Oh right that forgor about it
i'd look for a way to drop disdain for sustained assault
Could run stalwart
