Wanted to ask yeah; have you see anything on that other game that's going to be a sandbox version of Forever Winter? It looks interesting, has PSX style graphics but is going to be akin to Deus Ex but far more open-ended? I think it'll be single-player or maybe co-op?

I keep seeing TikToks and Youtube Shorts of it.
It's apparently going to be a sandbox, open-world game akin to and aesthetically pleasing like Forever Winter but you can build your own mechs, join factions completely, and just roam a post-apoc Cyberpunk World.
It looks incredible but I can find literally nothing else on it.

The moment those pieces of scrap aren't grey tier that technically means Hadron did a once over on them. She just ... made the metals stronger rather than giving the knives any type of actual handle.

Yeah, it's fucking copium, but that's the only halfway plausible answer anyone is getting.

I cannot fathom the brain of people, particularly Ogryn and Arbites players, who somehow manage to shoot so much in Aurics they go down to 0 ammo. Even when I'm special-sniping all game and even occasionally magdump into far-off reaper squads on Zealot I'm perfectly fine with 0 ammo pickups

Yes, that's the thing.
I've wondered the same thing during the first couple weeks of arbites. I've observed those players to figure out how and why.
They shoot singular poxers.
That's it.
They use their humongous horizontal hallway-raper to shoot singular poxers that are within arm's reach.
They shoot their bolter into poxers, and magdump ragers with it.

>LW shock mine supposedly being nerfed to 90s regen
I sincerely wonder what their reasoning is. I already don't think LW shock mines are useful in havoc 40, because good teams use other sources of stagger and just kill everything before mine regen can matter. The dog does more work in teams that don't require crutch mines, and 2 mines are plenty for emergency scenarios.
>LW frag regen is supposedly being buffed to 45s
As the resident dog apologist, I actually think this finally makes LW pull ahead of the dog in auric. I think they're about equal value right now, but giving frags such a massive buff is frankly kinda crazy. I wonder just how crazy this is going to get with that bolt pistol blessing.

I still prefer the dog, but I'm hopeful that I'll stop seeing retarded mine crutchers that barely do anything all game, and instead see grenade chads deleting entire screens of elites in two button presses and stunlock bosses for their entire health bar.
>>

>I sincerely wonder what their reasoning is.

>>548367405
Isn't the arbites grenade just a normal explosion and not frag?
>>
>>548367589
It's a firecracker for fun, but fatshark fucked up the stats on it so it accidentally kills elites
>>
>>548367558
I agree, I don't like how much of a crutch shock mines are, and how disproportionate their usefulness is when you're bad at the game. I like that they're not nerfing the mine directly because it definitely isn't problematic without regen.
>>548367589
Semantics, whatever. You are correct. It explodes on impact.
>>
>>548367589
it's staggers bosses as much as krak and rock, so you can ledge or no respite/skullcrusher exploit bosses with it

>level up fresh Arbite to 30 within 24 hr
Was playing pretty casually and was busy outside of DT quite a bit, too, so I wasn't going hard at it. Did they make levelling much easier/faster compared to launch? Way faster than I anticipated. I levelled the 4 launch characters to 30 very early on and I thought that on average took much longer (per character).

Slightly possibl, if you turn off all the in-game postprocess, anti-aliasing, sharpening and do it through reshade instead. I wouldn't count much on it tho, also depends on a shader, some can be costly. Probably better to tweak those settings through nvidya panel instead.

How difficult is darktide
If I can do cata casually on ratclick will I be able to jump into the highest difficulties (when I get gear & levels I assume) or is the game going to turn me into a little baby bitch
>>
>>548377161
Darktide's easier than Vermintide. Of course, the hardest part is like in any other co-op game is shitty squad mates. Things do get insane the higher ranks you go in havoc, but a few Auric modifiers like Hi-Intensity Shock Troop Gauntlet can knock you off your feet if you or your squad are not careful. Be wary of barrels. They're there to fuck you rather than the enemy.
>>
>>548377161
In my opinion Darktide is much easier overall but that could just be because the game controls so much smoother and it's harder to get caught by some stray nigger trash mob jabbing you in the back. It used to be so much harder to deal with walking into a room with multiple firing quads sitting pracrically in the fucking rafters but there are so many answers for those types of situations now (on top of the increased average skill of the playerbase.. well most of them..) that it's not a big deal. Oh i guess Toughness is basically more powerful than temp health in every way too i guess, so there is that. And Psykers don't lose movement speed when their "heat" gets high like Sienna does

>>WAY too smart
Not every ogryn is a drooling retard. And it is clear that Darktide's ogryns are the new standard for the lore as a whole since now ogryns are at least characters who can talk.
Also it is pretty obvious that if Bodyguard being smart was an issue GW wouldn't have let Fatshark even make it in the first place. Same issue goes for the new Heavy personality too which seemingly looks to be even smarter than the Bodyguard on the surface.
Also if you hate smart ogryns you should hate Bully too because he is too smart and articulate too.
Only that is remotely accurate is Brawler, but even that shit is wrong because he DOES have a bone head implant and it is malfunctioning, even though there multiple techpriests around to possibly fix the implant.
>>
>>548363671
>I hate Ogryns more and more every day. Stupid "le wholesome chungus" class.
Ogryns have been "le wholesome chungus" guys ever since their inception in 40k, even in the original RT stuff ogryns were described as bunch of lovable retards who were good at fighting and if you befriended one it WOULD be your best friend till the end. You are just a secondary lorelet who is genuinely just butthurt that the game is actually staying true to the lore it is based on.

That's not wrong, techpriests as a rule don't know how things work, they just follow repair mantras dogmatically. When that fails their resort, short of appealing to a superior, is percussive maintenance. I don't imagine many are brave enough to try percussive maintenance on an ogryn.

I wonder if fartshart has toyed with the idea or have on the drawing board prestige classes, otherwise promotions for existing classes, to increase the level cap and maybe introduce a new talent tree for prestige talents (mainly so you can't double dip extra talents in the old tree). This would also help represent how the Rejects have risen from cannon fodder murderhobos into actual Inquisitorial agents, for example:
>Veteran > Stormtrooper
>Zealot > Confessor
>Psyker > Primaris Psyker
>Ogryn > Bone'ead
>Arbitrator > Judge
>Scum > Gang Lord

>>
>>548381391
Primaris Psykers predate Primarines if that's what you're thinking about, they're just elite sanctioned psykers who are usually attached to command squads.
>>
>>548381260
Never. Next class is an Admech Janny, aka Reclaimator.
>>
>>548381532
Prestige classes wouldn't preclude new classes, for example a Techpriest can become a Magos while a Sororitas can become a Celestian for example
>>
>>548381260
Doubt it, they wouldn't be able to sell prestige classes
>>
>>548380541
It is wrong for the simple fucking reason because the techpriests are the ones who install this shit.
And no, techpriests aren't completely retarded and don't know how shit works. They do know technology works, their understanding of tech is higher than what we have now, they have understanding of quantum physics for example.
Only shit they have trouble understanding is DAoT technology that is so fucking advanced that it might as well be fucking magic in nature. And most of the time the said technology had been designed by a non-human post singularity AI. That's why the techpriests throw oils and candles at it because they don't understand.

Fixing a bonehead implant isn't an issue.
Nevermind that the Mourningstar does already have Kharib on board who is a magos biologis, meaning he'd specialize in this type of shit.
>>
>>548381840
>And no, techpriests aren't completely retarded and don't know how shit works.
Techpriest Magi generally know how shit works in their field, below that rank it's all prayer, worship and superstition surrounding instruction manuals written back when the Mechanicum was new and they knew what they were doing. By 40k, the mystical aspects have almost completely overridden any real technical knowledge, outside a few weirdos like Cawl who are considered borderline hereteks because they dare to dabble in innovation and the scientific method.

>>
>>548382353
The problem is that they can't sell prestige classes because people will be up in arms if they have to buy an expansion for the existing classes. Once they run out of classes to sell, that'll probably be it for that aspect of the game. My guess is that they'll switch over to selling map packs.

Yeah except they aren't when you just kill everything too fast for them to matter. If you need a pocket smite that stuns everything for 15 seconds, every 60 seconds, that's a team composition and build issue.
Only hardstuckies insist on LW mines. Most actually competent 40s lineups don't even want an arbitrator in the first place, and those that bring one often bring dog + mines.
What is this, a NA havoc take or something? There was some anon complaining about NA havoc being complete retards, and I'm starting to believe it.

Hard to talk about, or get excited for, games that just completely fucking suck. All the recently released co-op games were basically dead on arrival.
>Just feels like the entire genre is dead if Darktide is the only thing anyone talks about in here.
Space Marine and Helldivers have their own generals, so if you like those games, check out their generals I guess. I don't like either one basically at all, but they're just not my kind of games.

If you can think of a co-op game that doesn't suck ass and belongs in here, please PLEASE talk about it. Tide games get talked about because they're the most relevant games in the genre. DRG and L4D aren't talked about because everyone already played them to death and there's nothing TO talk about anymore.

Can our "veteran" just not tunnel in on his sights, give me a decent crosshair and get these gigantic sights with the fucking vignette filter and giant blinding halo out of my way
ADSing is the greatest flaw of the weapons and a massive reason why the plasma gun dominates the meta, it doesn't matter how long it takes to pull out because as soon as it's out you can pop the special across the map and have your melee back out while if you were running literally anything else you would still aiming down the sights and taking 2 or 3 shots to kill the same special
>inb4 just use braced autogun
THEY DO THE SAME FUCKING THING YOU CAN'T SHOOT WHILE YOU'RE IN THE BRACING ANIMATION WHAT THE FUCK FATSHART
Also remove lights as weapon specials and give every weapon with one a shove/bash instead, they're useful for one mission type and are otherwise a waste of a special

For the longsword you're going to have to utilise some animation cancelling.
This is how I do horde clear since I'm not a huge fan of the light combo:
>l1 > block cancel > l1

For armor piercing l3 combos into h3 and vice versa so you've got a few ways to get there:
>push followup > h3 > l3
>l1 > l2 > h3
>h1 > h2 >h3

Your bread and butter should be h1 > h2 and unless you need to hit something hard you should avoid going to h3 so:
>h1 > h2 > block cancel
>>
>>548389560
could horde be just l1-l2-cancel? that's what I was doing
>>
>>548389560
For the sword and board you only really need to keep 2 combos in mind.
Your horde clear should be:
>l1 > h2 > l3

Your armor piercing is most going to come from your heavies so anything that gets you there works, for me it's:
>push followup > h3 > h1
>h1 > push followup > h3 > h1

You've got a lot of freedom to do whatever the fuck you want with the shield since the constant shield bashing gives a lot of wiggle room for creativity.

>>548390129

I get why other characters can't put hands on gear meant for arbitrators(and maul implies there would be drastic repercussions if you attempt to take his shit when he dies), why other classes can't use crazy psychic powered weapons, etc.
But what will be the reason that a vet/zealot can't pick up and use any of the garbage weapons that the fentheads are bringing in? This is another reason gangers were a silly addition, their gear is just niggerrigged scrap and duct taped guns, is veteran alergic to tetanus and thinks the crowbar has cooties?
>>
>>548390996
Why can't veteran use flamers?
>>
>>548391104
I guess I forgot that one, I always figured the plasma gun needs actual training to handle since it's sensitive and dangerous but no clue about the flamer
and why the fuck cant the zealot use a shovel? you even get the shovel in the tutorial mission then cant use it anymore
It's not like it aint stocked in the armory and upgraded by hadron like everything else, I doubt there'd be a background check or required rank for a fuckin shovel
Furthermore imagine the armory servitor going "I'm sorry officer but games workshop has not authorized you to carry lasguns"
>>
fuck this gay shit there should be NO shared weapons
>>
>>548390996
Force weapons and Ogryn weapons make sense because force weapons are just overpriced beatsticks if you don't have psyker powers to activate them, while Ogryn weapons are too big and unwieldy for regular humans. Every other restriction is arbitrary for the sake of exclusivity.

So use a weapon suited for that?
Laspistol can reach 100% crit with a zealot present. The brown recon las fires slowly enough to avoid draining all of your stamina with Deadshot. Helbore IV with Surgical has functionally infinite ammo.
You're complaining about a problem that already has solutions. You're not getting infinite ammo on your fucking plasma or boltgun.
>It's not even a balance question now considering what the scumbag can do.
This is valid though, because scum can force 100% crit on bolt pistol, double that crit, and get literally infinite ammo. Never mind how overpowered I expect the needler to be.

Stuff like slaughterer should be deleted and the damage, cleave and stagger should be baked into the weapons by default.
But I do agree that many of the blessings are either too weak, but some are just straight up fucking useless.
Like Bladed Momentum on heavy swords, who the fuck thought that this was a good idea?
>here, have 10% rending for 2.5 seconds when hitting multiple enemies
And then you look at the retarded cockroach toothpick
>here, have 120% fucking rending rending for just for hitting heads

The game has too much blessing bloat and arguably weapon bloat.
Like did we really need 9 fucking versions of an autogun? Did vermintide have 9 versions of the fucking grudge-raper or whatever the fuck its called?
>>
>>548399130
oh well in that case i wish they would improve the efficacy of the "perfect block' blessings on the relic blade. something like 60% heat and +15% heat dissipation on the one and maybe something like 30% attack speed on the other with an 8 second duration and a 5 second cooldown on both

At the time of making these nerfs it was the right call at the time. Also the game was a lot different back then than it is now.
>>but if you pay 12$ for this class then it's actually balanced and not OP anymore, enjoy
I agree with this however, it's cancer. But not surprising considering these cunts want to sell as much of the DLC as possible. Just like they have done with every other DLC class in the past.

perfect block in a horde game is a retarded idea for a mechanic, almost as bad as spammable parrying
perfect block should be a parry, the parry specials should be removed, and perfect blocking should create a 360 degree strong stagger effect while still costing the normal amount of stamina
then you adjust the window to raise/lower the skill floor until its appropriately balanced

the system as it exists is just a swedish level of absolute doorknob licking
>>
>>548399535
A ton of blessings should be baked in, because most weapons have at least 1 mandatory blessing that either makes the weapon usable in the first place, or is so good that you would be retarded not to take it.

The entire blessing system is just a vestige of the retarded RNG rewards from way back when, where having useless dogshit blessings and OP god-tier blessings was very likely an intentional design choice. I'm glad that we can craft our shit now, but the blessings need a major overhaul.
Practically speaking, every weapon only has like 3-4 viable blessings, so you can easily cut most of them out and bake the good ones into the weapon.
Having multiple weapons be uncanny strike stat sticks, or skullcrusher stat sticks, dilutes their identities.

i wouldn't be surprised to see this become a standard for fatshark. they seem obsessed with scaling and cutting things as opposed to designing or tweaking new and existing challenges and with enough employee churn and time, it doesn't even necessarily become an act of bad faith to realize how much unexplored territory presents itself obviously from the game's hacked-down outline.

how come? i dont disagree that its an odd choice against hordes themselves, but what about against monstrosities and singular melee enemies like crushers, maulers, and ragers?
>perfect block should be a parry, the parry specials should be removed, and perfect blocking should create a 360 degree strong stagger effect while still costing the normal amount of stamina
just to be sure i understand what you mean: whenever you tap "block" your character does the same animation as the current parry on the duelling and devil's claw swords or something similar, but without the followup attack? or do you just mean that "perfectly blocking" does exactly what you stated
>what is the purpose of the 360 stagger effect?
can it stagger monstrosities? how come a perfectly executed block costs the same amount of the blocking resource as a regular block? are you abstracting that the "stamina cost" of the action is redistributed into this big stagger blast? what is actually causing this effect in-universe?

Not him, but the issue is that the game nowadays is so fast paced and there's so much shit coming at you at all times that parrying, blocking let perfect blocking, just isn't viable.
It's better to just dodge and hit the enemies to stagger them to avoid damage.
Only times you really want to block is when a boss is focusing on you, like plague ogryn or spawn doing its quick long combo attacks.

Like good example of this is both ogryn and arbites get access to offensive defence which gives you 10% strength for stamina spent blocking, stacks 5 times, lasting 3.5 seconds. And you only lose 1 stack per 1 attack when hitting an enemy.
It sounds good on paper, but the amount of blocking you need to do to get the 50% strength, takes both much time and stamina to be worth it to do.
I one time put it on my shield with ogryn and played an auric mission I couldn't get it to working in a sensible manner at all. At best I had like 1 or 2 stacks at any time. And the next game I played I just put skullcrusher back on and it was so much better.

Damage. Psyker is a bit of a glass cannon. Survivability is actually better than ever, believe it or not.
>this shit feels like the clunkiest worst way to play a horde shooter.
You chose one of the less intuitive staves and the slowest melee weapon. Neither one is bad, but you need time to get used to it.
For the staff, only quell while sliding. Also slide before you start charging your rightclick. If your fingers are fast enough, you can also use a knife in your melee, sprint while using the heavy for extra speed, slide, then swap to your staff and quell/charge.
>also jesus christ the staff is so bad, its 4 shots to kill a normal mob
Charge it fully for damage. Fractional charges are only for staggering enemies. Also build your tree for damage, you are a damage class. If you need defenses, put up a bubble or build more heavily into crits. You also have very good toughness damage resist nodes.

Psyker is very different from the other classes, and the hardest to get used to. Don't beat yourself up over it. At the top end, psykers are possibly the strongest class, and you can also do some really wacky things with it.

as a newbie, plop your bubble shield. kill stuff.

The infernus staff is more chill. The electrokinetic staff with the surge blessing is preetty cool for spamming left mouse button, and you can use the right mouse button to kill some specials too.

>>548403046
the sword heavy attacks kill them well enough, and the staff can stagger all 3
>>
>>548402519
You have a whole bunch of different ways to kill enemies. You just gotta pick whatever is your favorite.
That staff is A tier, minimum. You're basically immortal when casting because it CC's everything. It one shots chaff, and 2-4 shots elites. Use the map and seek choke points.

You can also use it to support your melee weapon. If bulwarks and crushers come, use the staff to tip them over, whoop out your melee and stab them to death.

My preferred way of playing is swapping a lot between voidblast staff against blobs, melee against elites, and assail against ranged. It's a very engaging way to play.

They redesigned it when they introduced Smite to the game. Old electro staff was basically Smite, but then they had to give it a new identity and didn't really try too hard. It's low damage, generates too much peril, kills one or maybe two things at a time, and the only benefits it has is that you basically can't miss with it and it does ministun things. Just a relic of bad design decisions.
>>
>>548402519
psyker is not for new players
it's not exactly high skill floor, it just can't tank hits so you need to be comfortable with movement and aware of your surroundings, you need to dodge a lot if you want to use staves
you need to do this on all classes but psyker gets punished harder for bad plays
>staff is so bad
you need to play with Empyric Resolve for some time to get a feel for the staves before attempting low warp res meta fuckery (which is also wrong and not meta half the time but loud retards can't stop parroting each other so there's that)
psyker does not have high burst damage, it's all about dots and staggering, or chip damage and staggering
Voidblast is an excellent support staff if you pair it with shield bubble.
Inferno is infinite cleave high damage, but only when you face tightly packed enemies. Before maelstroms it loses to any gun because there's simply not enough enemies for infinite cleave to be relevant.
Electrokinetic is just a mediocre gun with infinite ammo, good for low difficulties because it can stun crushers.
Voidstrike is a meme. It can be good in rolling steel because it has a lot of chokepoints. That's basically the only scenario when it doesn't suck.
You really don't need to touch staves before you go into aurics, or use Eletrokinetic if you must. Just have fun with Assail, guns and greatsword.
>>
>>548403509
>>548403647

Lower the peril cost and buff double the damage. Or even triple the damage.
Also make the lightning chain/jump into more enemies as well.
>>
>>548403046
>like if 3 armored enemies are approaching me what am i supposed to do?
With the ground pound staff, you charge it until as many of them as possible are within the blast radius, and knock em all over.
Get close, wait for their heavy attacks to come out, slide to the side. Remember to charge your staff while sliding.
Consider changing your build, or your weapon mark. Having a high mobility melee can be helpful, but if you like the greatsword, use the one where the H1 -> H2 is a swing into a stab, that one is good for deleting armored heads.
If you have shriek, you can literally yell them over.
If you have smite, you can charge that as they approach, and hold them in place while you reposition (slide backwards) or wait for your team to kill them. This is especially useful when the armored horde is too large for you to easily deal with.
Most of psyker's defenses are proactive.
>>
>>548402456
The proposed suggestion(s) that anon made don't actually add any meaningful gameplay atoms. What was suggested allows him to more easily contain or manage any number or armor type of enemy by locking them down with a stagger effect. I don't doubt that it would be highly effective. What I'm imagining is an alternative form of Smite that's just suddenly available to anybody with a melee weapon.
>>548402769
>parrying and blocking, let alone perfect blocking, just isn't viable
>goes on to detail when and how blocking is perfectly viable and is actually effective
Blockpushing and other stagger effects are objectively more useful against hordes, other than just straight up mulching them, than blocking itself. Perfect blocking as a mechanic is pretty cool though, because for weapons with especially low dodge count, like the Slab Shield, it opens up another pool of resource for you to spend to avoid taking damage with.
>offensive defense
This is another issue entirely, and goes hand in hand with >>548399639. I have to assume that the intent behind the blessing is to award a blocking player with some extra damage, but the way they went about doing it is questionable. I also don't like that pairing it with the other blessing grants improved block cost reduction, which is anti-synergetic since its actually harder for your to even spend a stamina to gain a damage boost in the first place. They could definitely fix this one pretty easily by just adjusted the numbers and even wholesale just removing the stamina expenditure requirement entirely so that blocking occasionally just gives you free damage.

Personally, if we're going to shield weapon blessings I think they need to add a blessing that massively improves your mobility while blocking. That's the biggest detriment I've noticed when using any shield weapon. Blocking with the slab shield shouldn't impede your walking mobility at all, other than simply not allowing you to sprint as blocking normally does.
>>
>>548404130
smite is good because it can hit things at a distance, waiting to parry some dude in a group in melee range to stun them or instantly die is never going to be useful

>>548402070
The other replies have the gist right, but just to clarify how I would have it work:
Your block bind would continue to function as normal, but with a small frame window at the beginning of the block that parries the enemy attacking you and creates a strong stagger effect in a 360 degree radius. Lowering your block should have a small recovery window during which attacking and blocking are still possible, but blocking will not parry until the recovery window is exhausted.
I would expect the AoE stagger effect to be strong enough to knock back anything except monstrosities and Maulers/Crusher overheads. If that sounds overpowered, you're probably overestimating the frame window I would prefer (something like 22-32 frames which is roughly half-second timing.) This is complicated by netcode and client performance, but you can look to (good) fighting games for the technicals to support implementation.

The current parry specials include ripostes, which the actual name for the follow-up attack they do. I think it'd be appropriate to keep the ripostes and raise the skill ceiling on Dueling Sword and Devil's Claw so that they execute different animations depending on whether you've just perfect blocked, with much more damage if they follow a parry according to this new design. I imagine, at least for the Dueling Sword, adding a lunge to a properly executed riposte would create a lot of synergies, including better horde management potential in the right hands.

You're right about sublimating the knockback into the stamina cost, keeping in mind we are then leaving space for talents or blessings that reduce it. As for the in-universe explanation, in an ideal world it would be flavored per-class, but in the dark timeline we occupy, it would be something as simple as adding a bit of a shove animation (pressing the weapons out would achieve this effect and be simple enough) and a louder grunt, implying you've shaken off the enemies around you.
>>
>>548404130
Pushing is useful with hordes, blocking and parrying isn't.
Even as an ogryn who uses the slab shield you still rarely block melee enemies, you only use block for pesky ranged enemies. You only block when it is 100% necessary, like being focused on by a boss that you aggroed. In hordes that's just not the case with all classes, just hit them and dodge. same with elites.
If you are in a such a shitty spot where you need to be blocking a lot, it means you fucked up.

its effectively the same problem with vt2 with the stagger changes, they wanted the bad weapons, the shield ones and maces/hammers, to be useful, but the problem was that they dont do any damage and made those weapons even worse because they increased the hp all of the enemies at the same time, it didnt affect the good weapons because they didnt need to do a dance to kill things; and thats whats happening here, people want to dance around to look like theyre helping when theyre not.

Actually, from what I understand there is actually some under-the-hood function about the parrying attacks that already work with perfect blocks, so I do know that what you're proposing is technically sound. As I recall, I believe the Psyker specifically receives that feature. They discussed it on one of the dev blogs a while back.
>parry stagger followup
simple enough. works for me.
>>548405110
Well, I took into account the implications of the upper limits of his feature, but it's all moot since he clarified here >>548404825. The length of the cooldown in question is going to be the ultimate predicting factor in what constitutes its strength and abusability but it still appears to do exactly what I assumed it would, other than not working against monsters and the melee users when theyre overheading

The class has a talent that is a weaker version of Skullcrusher, one of the best skills in the tree, and retards still find a way to skip it somehow

Yes, the stimms are really powerful and sharing them with your team is pretty OP, especially if they are all also doing the same thing. Desperado and Rampage can't compete really.

I'm predicting it'll be crate spam in havoc, abusing the absolute fuck out of the infinite ammo node with bolt pistol (forced crits, stronger crits, talent that doubles your crit damage) or needle pistol spam to just melt everything with super AIDS

Depending on your semantic definition of meta, if you go by the classical definition of "what people use because they perceive it to be good" regardless of whether it actually is good, I assume it'll be dual SMG spam

It's the second strongest damage node in the entire tree (because enemy damage taken is multiplicative with all of your self damage dealt bonuses) next to Soulguilt Scan (because strength is multiplicative with damage bonuses).
Except it also gives everyone else the damage boost, so it's obviously insanely strong.
Arbitrator skill tree is vastly misunderstood and I think 9 in 10 builds I see are just completely retarded. This includes this general, which will call any good arbitrator skill tree bad because they're clueless little niglets and/or poor, mad they can't afford 2 kebabs, and trolling.

>>
>>548410412
>most people don't actually test out the nodes in psykhanium
And then the remaining retards develop massive Dunning Kruger from obsessively sitting in the psykhanium for hours at a time autistically theorycrafting up scenarios that don't happen during actual gameplay, while disregarding all of the scenarios that actually do.
A certain fat faggot jewtuber is the epitome of this.
>>
>>548410220
I always found it weird how they recognize that soulguilt scan is strong but don't ever take that one when it serves the same purpose. I'm not even good at making builds but it's glaringly obvious to me that increasing damage dealt to staggered enemies is extremely useful on a class whose unique ability is to tag every enemy as staggered with headshots. Even the Mr. Sneed build DESIGNED FOR MAXIMUM BOSS DAMAGE by using the skullcrusher stick to "stagger" bosses and dump skullcrusher stacks on them doesn't take this node. We should tear Mr. E apart and feed him to the pigs.
>>
This is why Vermintide talent trees were better btw.
If I wanted to spend hours obsessively testing if "+99% rending if you fart" node is better than "+999% brittleness on hit if you shart" node I would be playing fucking PoE and not a horde shooter.
>>
>>548410828
I still rememebr that fat shitskin troon fucking trying to prove that "uncanny is useless actually, period". He proved this by shooting his plasma gun at a mauler with uncanny up, then without uncanny, and showing that the damage is very close.
This, to him, meant that uncanny does nothing, period.

People ITT were genuinely parroting this btw. This was already well into the rending dot meta, which youtubers at that point havent caught onto yet. Retards were parroting tanner instead

Because this node doesn't really change breakpoints? You are going to one-two hit most things and the only thing it reliably gets you is some boss damage. I guess it's viable if you are one of those people who spend an hour slamming their shockclub into a blue-stimmed bulwark with a rotten armour.

This kind of severely retarded thinking is why niggers like you are insurmountably hardstuck in the havoc trenches before ever even dreaming of hitting EFL2.

Shit like Target the Weak, Skullcrusher, Blinded by Blood and Valuable Distraction are the reason why human bosses get absolutely raped, through their shield, without ever getting the chance to even stand up. But you are too retarded to understand this.
In fact, you'll likely greentext at this post about how havoc is irrelevant, because you are eternally seething about being filtered.

fatsharks wrote a dev blog talking about this if you're interested

The most specific unique thing Scum does is having practically infinite ammo with more focus on single target, as opposed to psykers infinite AOE.
Another thing is they bring a new DOT.
But more important to me, it feels like the class is bridging the gap between Zealot and Veteran. It has a bit of both. And that combination is unique. It's fast and critty like zealot, but also blasty like veteran/looger.

But Darktide is easier than Vermintide, that's undeniable regardless of which game you prefer. Even before you ignore the talent trees and enemy design, Darktide is easier because

That's not to say Darktide is necessarily worse because of this, but it's definitely easier to outplay enemies and stay safe.

By the looks of it no.
I doubt every code name for classes is going to be based on voice lines. The devs might just choose whichever suits the class the best or they might just choose shit at random next time.

Mentioning that, has there been any new datamines/leaks? Like how the Adamant and Broker were found in the files around april/may?

You need to build damage in your skill tree. Crits. Weakspot damage. Finesse.
Your gun needs good perks and blessings. Don't be the fucking retard that puts both crit perks on his gun.
You need to aim at heads.
Like a third of the guns are dogshit, don't use those.
A good number of guns really want a synergistic build and aren't necessarily great on all classes.
Melee game.

>shredder autopistol
Only useful for speed running because you can fire it while sprinting. Not accurate enough to shoot snipers or bombers, useless against armor, only good against things you should melee and yes that includes ragers.
>braced autogun
Specializes in shooting hordes, which is a thing you should do in melee. Only arbitrator can arguably use this to some usefulness, and maybe HIV scum can when it comes out, but it's still a shit gun.
>vigilant autogun
Only the mark with the highest damage is worth using as a head popper with both crit blessings, and it is a strictly worse boltgun.
>infantry lasgun
Has literally no use. Laspistol is unironically better in every single way. Recon las also does virtually everything better. Helbore snipes better.
>double barrel shotgun
Literally useless as a shotgun, only useful when critstacking as high as it gets and using the cleave + bleed blessing and firing it as a DoT stick. Almost exclusively used by veteran with the bottom right keystone.

A couple others are debatable, like ogryn twin stubber if you're not using the shooty skill, or ripper gun, but discussing that triggers the resident turboautist. I also think the explosive marks of the boltgun/pistol are completely uselss dogshit because why they're downgrades in every way that matters but good at shooting into hordes (don't do that). To a much, much lesser extent, I'd argue the revolver is outclassed by the bolt pistol, but it's still a very powerful gun so it doesn't really deserve any shit.

The only class its acceptable to use rtx slop on is zealot due to its freebies being shit.

Yeah but I can't put the sprint blessing on it to hipfire while zooming around, or melt bosses with bleed, both of which are the actual reasons I prefer the bolt pistol.
I actually think cleave > ammo at least in auric, it's the blessings that sell me.
I'm actually using the slug shotgun on zealot instead, and only for its much, much more useful reload, since you can just sprint and reload a single shell, instead of waiting for ages for your revolver/bistol to finish reloading.

At this point if you just want a thing to plink at specials and shooters with, you might as well use the laspistol. You'll keep the boss damage niche and duellist works with ranged attacks too, so does blazing piety.

>>548429967
No yeah I agree, I only use it on my relic blade build, and RB has inexplicably massive monster damage. I quite like the slug shotgun for its surprisingly massive DPS (even if that comes with a really long reload). The slugs one-tap almost everything that matters, slug + regular shot kills snipers at virtually every range (with unarmored perk), and maniacs turns it into a pretty good ranged mutant killer, which I do value a lot.
The shotgun mechanic of minimum pellet count also makes it easier to use than the laspistol, which REALLY wants you to hit heads.
Also one-tapping trappers is extremely important to me, so I'd only bring the laspistol if I also care about monster damage.

Shotgun is unironically good in auric, try it some time.

It feels kind of weird to me that the Scummer's melee ability has a downside as you leave it, like it's definitely flavorful and works with the stimm themeing but neither Desperado nor the stimm crate/stimming route in general come with drawbacks or withdrawal or lows after the high, so why is the melee node just randomly punishing you at the end?

>What's the intent?
To make perfect blocks a faster, higher skill alternative to pushing that enables skill expression in the Dueling Sword and Devil's Claw special attacks, and remove the fairly abusable parry spamming they currently enable. And to create space for their use by no longer punishing players trying to play according to their talent spec by following up with a buffed attack (currently punished via Schroedinger's pink rat attacking right after the triggering mob a quarter-second later.)

But maybe most of all, to make perfect blocks intuitive at a glance in our horde smasher, instead of needing further explication and defense in forum discussions.

>maximum DPS
Laspistol. Lasguns that can, should almost always build Dumdum + Infernus and Unyielding. Second perk is up to you, most use crit chance, I prefer maniacs. For talents, Deadshot on the left, Reciprocity on the right. Deadshot requires that you fuel it with stamina, so you want at least one +3 stamina curio and a keystone that replenishes it. I prefer Focus Target with the left node for stamina because it also makes bosses die faster, but Marksman's Focus isn't entirely terrible either.
Laspistol is hard to use, you need to aim at heads real good, and also click click click.
>ease of use
Recon las, identical build as above, use the brown one so you don't annihilate your stamina.
>I want fuckin infinite ammo no questions asked
Helbore, the heavy mark, crit when aiming, brittleness on hit. Carapace so you can shoot crushers. I like flak or unyielding for the second perk.
Since you're new enough to ask, this is probably a terrible choice, because it's rather finicky and difficult to use

If you bring frags, use a melee with Uncanny Strike (shovel, knife, dueling sword).
If you bring kraks, shout is strictly mandatory because you need something to buy space with.
Which one you use is personal preference, just be aware that if you don't bring a melee that can deal with armor, you will need kraks. Helbore is a bit of an outlier since it can shoot armor, but they tend to come in dense enough packs and approach fast enough that you can't just DPS them dead before they get your ass.

Is that supposed to be a comeback? Didn't know I was surrounded by preteens.

Wasn't there supposed to be a big balance patch for the other classes alongside the hives cum release or am I imagining things?

Ok so it's been a while since i played Darktide. Last time i played they reworked the whole itemization so the game is less grindy. Can someone give me a qrd on the major changes since then apart from the new classes?

All we know that there's a free update coming which includes the new operations mission.
We don't know what else it contains, if it contains anything else at all.

I think the free update is genuinely just going to be the 1 free new map (yippee) and then some slight balance changes and nothing else.
If there was weapons or something coming to the other classes alongside the hive scum, Fatshark would've already mentioned it.
And remember, Fatshark doesn't do surprises. Like all other updates before this have also been.
>You will get the following in the next update: X, Y and Z
Like the Secrets of the Machine God where they said we'll get the new snow map, bolt pistol, DBS, shock maul and then ogryn pickaxes.
And once the update went live that was exactly what we got.

>>infantry lasgun
>Laspistol is unironically better in every single way.
Actually, in what way? I've been considering using one for my psyker to fulfill my character theme but I'm not sure what hidden stats the laspistol has that make it better than lasgun.

lmao, bravo Fatshark
>>
>>548439178
lasgun has 5% crit chance, laspistol has 15%
>>
>>548439178
>Actually, in what way?
In every way that matters.
They are both semi-auto guns with lot of ammo that you quickly fire and both have holo sights. However, las pistol basically no recoil while the infantry lasgun does.
>>
>>548437163
he said they're doin it now too. I don't see the issue, since people can't just join auric or damnation at level 1..
>>
>>548439178
Laspistol has huge crit rate, shoots sooner after swapping, has massive run speed.
>>
>>548439178
Laspistols have an inherent +15% crit chance bonus
Infantry lasguns (and Helbore) only have a +5% crit chance bonus
Also Laspistols have access to the Dum Dum blessing for damage boosting your burns from Infernus

Yes it really does
>>
>>548441118
The fast firing one is widely regarded as the better one. I honestly never gave the slower one a chance though, but I don't see a reason to since it stacks Infernus much more slowly, and requires even better aim since you can't spam it.
