Is there a mod to automatically block german players? I prefer to win my games
>>
>>553092024
I contemplated writing a mod of the sort but for slavgroids, but it'd get a little convoluted with checking the steam profile (likely requires running a local server to open the profile), plus the obvious problem of having a limited amount of block list slots, which is purely server side, and cannot be solved on the client side.

Basically, it's not practically possible.

By making martyrdom not increase your damage by HALF and increasing the base stats of the weapons
I play a 40k game, I see a big chainsword so I try it and it feels like shit - it takes too many hits to kill things and the hits themselves come out too slowly because you need martyrdom
So you look at martyrdom and it says treat your hp the exact opposite of what the game encourages and if you decide you don't like that then you just aren't supposed to use the eviscerator. But that's ok lets look at the other exclusive zealot melees, we can just pick one of those
>thunder hammer - 2hander built for oneshots with martyrdom
>relic blade - 2hander built for martyrdom
>but if martyrdom's bonus isn't busted then people will never pick it because playing with 1/6 of normal hp is retarded
Yes, I'm glad we agree martyrdom is abysmal dogshit and dragging heavy weapons down with it

>+10% from Prime Target

I get that this isn't exactly an optimal build, so let's cut out Riposte for good measure.
That's still +75% damage.
175% damage, adding max Martyrdom, comes out to 225% damage.
The damage increase from 175 to 225 is more like +29%.
Martyrdom is a less powerful than people think.
This isn't even factoring in other +% (melee) damage sources. In fact, I'm not even sure exactly how +% to infested/unyielding from Purge the Unclean interacts with this math, or +50% finesse from Duellist.

The finesse meme isn't as big of a deal as you might think. Duellist is incredible on just about everything, you don't need to be using a toothpick.

Relic blade goes from 218 to 304 on a finesse hit (weakspot/crit), not counting weakspot AND crit
That's a roughly 41% increase
>Relic blade, mobility dump, no perks, no blessings
>Duellist, +20% melee, +15% elite, no other damage bonuses
No Duellist, light attack head poke against scab rager head: 766 unpowered, 998 powered
Yes Duellist, light attack head poke against scab rager head: 981 unpowered, 1246 powered
That's a roughly 28%, and 25% increase in damage
>no Duellist, max Martyrdom:
1049, 1367, which is roughly +37% for both.
>yes Duellist, max Martyrdom
1344, 1707, which is +75% and 71% from baseline; +28% and +25% from the above

Crusher goes from 165 to 215 on a finesse hit
That's a roughly 30% increase, and also the weakest example that I'm aware of. Thammer is +60% for example.
>Crusher, defence dump, no perks, no blessings
>Duellist, +20% melee, +15% elite, no other damage bonuses
No Duellist, push attack against scab rager head: 612
Yes Duellist, push attack against scab rager head: 787
That's a roughly 29% increase in damage
>no Duellist, max Martyrdom:
838, which is roughly +37%
>yes Duellist, max Martyrdom:
1079, which is roughly +76% from baseline; +29% from the above

Keep in mind that these tests were done with a specific build that avoids conditional damage increases. In reality, you'll have a bunch more conditional damage nodes and likely see even less mileage per point out of damage nodes which stack additively.

You're doing a lot of thinking to squeeze damage out of a heavy weapon, but you don't need to. Even noting no damage blessings on the relic blade as if they aren't better spent helping with the minigame
Take a dueling sword and heavy attack a scab rager's head and see how that damage compares to
>third hit of a light combo
>after dodging
>with minigame enabled
>at a sixth of your health
Don't consider how much duelist or sustained assault or martyrdom would add, how much thrust would increase this, or how uncanny strike needs to be deleted, how much faster it attacks, how much easier it is to headshot with a straight nocombo poke, how much faster you move and how much further you dodge just for using a light weapon. Don't even think about how you can drop the talents heavy weapons need to compensate with like Unfaltering
So what's left? I could say heavy weapons cleave well but with flamestaff, arbite shockmaul and whatever spreads aids through a horde on scum I'm not so sure
>>
>>553099918
>noting no damage blessings on the relic blade as if they aren't better spent helping with the minigame
The heat blessings on the RB are pure meme. Cranial Grounding is only taken because it increases weakspot damage, the heat shit is barely relevant. Rampage is the only worthwhile damage blessing.
Cleave is a dead stat on a weapon that already cleaves more than enough, even through havoc hitmass. All the other blessings don't really do anything.
>Take a dueling sword
The dueling sword is completely worthless when it comes to dealing with dense mixed hordes. You can dance around and poke them all you want, but it only really excels at killing heavily armored targets. Also Thrust is kind of a meme blessing, as it's only useful when you're weaving out too far and thus losing DPS that you would be better at applying by just spamming the stab. I've tested this extensively. Thrust is only optimal for stealth as it lets you really, really hurt bosses.
>you can drop the talents heavy weapons need to compensate with like Unfaltering
Don't need it. I don't even use it in havoc, as you can easily compensate by sliding before attacking. It's incredibly comfy, don't get me wrong, and I do use it in auric, but it's more of a QoL/crutch pick than anything. I'd argue only thammer really needs it, since you REALLY don't want to be interrupted during your Thrust swing, but stealth also solves that, so what do I know?
>So what's left?
RB lets you actually horde clear while having perfectly serviceable single target even against armor, it's just a matter of stacking damage talents and aiming for the head. RB stealth is also a thing btw, you'd be surprised by how good that is.

>>553100654
I'm not fast enough to waste thrust by hitting before you get even one stack. I like it since I suck at aiming and taking the extra bit of a second to hit a head saves me having to hit an extra time. Maybe you're right and it's down to personal preference and the way I like fighting fits dueling better than relic to the point of actively not having fun with it
>it's just a matter of stacking damage talents and aiming for the head
That's my point, you do the same thing with the light weapon and do more damage when the heavy weapon should be at least matching it, if not beating it for the qol drawbacks it carries. I wish it did
I'll have to give relic blade another go with an open mind, but what I've seen happen in situations which are so dire that without a zealot's cleave you start dying is chorus gets used so the rest of the team can fix it

>>553104763

>>
>>553104824
>I'll have to give relic blade another go with an open mind
It takes some time to get used to the combo, and it's kind of hard to use without Unfaltering, but sliding is a huge help.
For single target, it's either push followthrough -> heavy -> light (repeat), or heavy -> heavy -> light (repeat).
The horde clear combo is push -> light -> heavy (repeat heavies).
In general, avoid using lights as much as possible, other than the stab, which has really good damage. The heat gauge doesn't care whether you light or heavy attack, so you want to use heavies to get the most out of it. I THINK the DPS is technically slightly worse (especially if you stack attack speed), but you extend your heat gauge a ton by doing so. Obviously light spam has its place sometimes, but it's not what you should focus on.
>what I've seen happen in situations which are so dire that without a zealot's cleave you start dying is chorus gets used
Relic blade's cleave is more of a medium mixed horde thing. You absolutely erase trash, and fuck up ragers and the like. Against heavy hordes, it's much more effective to use the single target combo and pretend it's an oversized dueling sword. In general, you want to hold chorus unless absolutely necessary, for the cooldown period after you hit >90% heat. A full duration chorus lets you recover ~65% heat before you can press the button again. You can obviously afford to be liberal about dumping chorus as soon as you hit high heat, and of course please do use it when a push into gunner spam is necessary.
RB also has kind of retarded damage against monsters, even without unyielding on it. I wouldn't recommend putting it on either, as carapace and flak are much more important.
>>
>>553105593
Ah shit I forgot to add
>combos
This is for the Mk X. I've seen people talk about the Mk II with stealth, but I don't have any experience running that, as I mostly use chorus. II's moveset is awkward for horde clear anyway, which is a major reason I even use the RB, so I'll stick with X.

Not every gun is designed to be a good ranged weapon for a ranged build. Many are designed to be great sidearms for a melee build, the bolt pistol is one of them. If you habitually melee everything but specials it's a fantastic tool
>>
>>553110102
dunno about that. Shivs are pretty good by default. And shivs come with better horde clear.
Imo you need a dedicated melee build for the tac axes to be worth it.

Well nevermind I guess it is the best then if it actually does mean +36% strength, that basically puts it on the tier of shit like power cycler and untranny strike that you are obligated to take and would have no reason to ever not take.

You're literally killing class with this change, you nigger. The whole point of a psyker is to stay on the edge of life and explosion, if you reduce peril quelling, you will turn a full-fledged magician into just a jerk with a sword and some kind of magical abilities.
>>
>>553112501
Cleave is a pointless stat because you run out of damage faster than you run out of targets, and the RB already has heaps of cleave anyway.
Cleave is kind of a bad stat on melee in general. The damage gains against super dense hordes are often insignificant and generally not worth the opportunity cost of an entire fucking blessing slot, even with some retarded +200% cleave.
>>
>>553112547
That's literally the entire problem with it though, it's a magician in a game designed around fighting with swords. The spells can be powerful and flashy only if there's enough downtime between spells that you have to sword fight at least some of the time. I guarantee you'd hate how shit they would make staves if they went down that approach.

It got nerfed a total of once that I can actually remember slightly after the beta / during beta. Brain burst was really good at actually killing carapace so it instakilled maulers, and actually did respectable damage to crushers back then. In a kneejerk reaction of youtubers saying BB is broken and uberstrong (because no one played damnation, the people saying this were playing heresy or even malice) and it was nerfed to the sad state it is now, and its base damage numbers have yet to ever be touched, down to the damage that can't even kill a pox hound in one shot.
It's not the most awful thing ever since they reworked the trees to allow blitz modification subnodes, but there was a long time where psyker basically did not have a blitz ability at all. I still wish the ability had innately higher base damage to hit breakpoints for other specials
>>
Welcome to my TED Talk. I don't like the Scum's uzi, they might be good but their recoils are a bitch and if you don't crit it's useless
>>
>>553113341
You can kill crushers in just under a second with enough rending, you do not need to crit, in fact their crit is dogshit.
You're right about the recoil tho.

The weapon customization is one thing I really like in it that others didn't mention already. There's like 8 things you customize on most guns and you can make absolute meme tier guns like a sawn-off shotgun with a sniper scope and flechette rounds.

Yes? None of the keystones give any rending, of course you use VM.
Blaze Away is the only mandatory blessing, the second one is up to taste. I prefer Run 'n' Gun. The reload speed is probably the next best one.
Obviously put carapace and unyielding on your gun for hilarious results. It's not like you ever run out of ammo against everything else, so shit like flak and maniacs is less important (but still good!)
All you need to rape crushers is rending on desperado, and rending on your stimm. If you want to DPSmaxx, also take the reload node in the bottom left with 100% viscosity. You should obviously path into Sample Collector if you do this, but that's fine, since you likely want +1 blitz anyway, and scum has plenty of points to spare.
>>
>>553113807
No, I'm saying that's what you're suggesting. What other lever do you think they have that they can move if you're so adamant that quelling can't be slower? With magic being as spammable as it is there would be no other choice but to make it weak. So do you want constantly weak, or occasionally powerful?

Do nothing? None of the staffs except the flamethrower need a nerf.

It requires skills from the player. You'd be surprised how many people I've seen who don't want to play Psyker because the extra key is too difficult for them. Console morons are probably terrified of this.

You're really underselling voidblast. And yeah electro and voidstrike are already crappy, now imagine if the other two were that crappy.
>>
>>553115969
>but it honestly feels like psyker is the most played class. There are more psyker players than any other class by far in havoc
Because this fucking degenerate mod requires 100% meta shit and a psyker with a bubble and a flamestaff fits that definition?
Have you seen many Psykers without a flamestaff and a bubble? I'm not arguing that the flamestaff is broken and it's unpleasant to play with, but it's stupid to judge the entire class by literally one weapon.
>>
>>553116468
Electro is great up to auric maelstrom. Leftclick build is quite powerful. Extremely consistent, high DPS. It only struggles against extremely dense armored hordes, but it still kills them reasonably fast anyway. Think of it as a gun build that never reloads because gaze is your reload.
>>
>>553116468
>And yeah electro
It's a great thing if you're not a shit eater in havoc.
>>
The only thing that MAYBE needs to be nerfed on psyker is fire staff, and that needs to be accompanied by buffs to the electric staff and the voidstrike staff. Voidblast staff is actually really good, just not as good as fire staff.
>>
>>553116792
Give shock staff +1-2 more secondary targets, or a blessing that does that. Give voidstrike +10% crit. Give fire staff a (relatively big) hitmass limit so it still cleaves extremely well, but no longer deletes an infinitely large horde.
>>
>>553116792
They'll never nerf flamestick because they only play on malice, and dot weapons like the flamestick only scale up with enemy density.
>>
>Play melee psyker
>Every single special, elite, and boss on the map hyperfocuses me from the moment it spawns

I don't care if melee psyker is technically stronger when I can survive 10x as easily as scoomer I'm just going to play him and do 10% less total DPS or whatever
>>
>>553117101
>They'll never nerf flamestick
In their game statistics, which they posted on their YouTube channel, these weapons were top 1 in terms of damage done. I think they have an idea that this shit is broken, but they don't know what to do about it yet.
>>
just nerf the flame cleave
>>
>>553117295
Most of the damage the flamestick is dealing is against trash, which isn't as useful as it sounds because no one's lacking for damage to get rid of them.
>>
>>553117420
Lol no, these assholes are capable of zeroing out hordes sitting in a corner.
>>
>>553117656
Yeah, but so can every other class. Literally every single class has something that just makes poxxies and groaners go away. Nerfing the damage makes it impotent against actual targets, it just needs to be more expensive in peril to use I think.
>>
>>553117826
>more expensive in peril
Large enough numbers will just result in shriek psykers running gaze instead and fire the thing indefinitely anyway.
>but muh bubble
I mean I guess I'm fine with indirectly nerfing bubble builds, but bubble is tremendously overrated, mostly by bad players. Doubly so in the current patch where everyone is projectile immune for ages after a dodge lol. It's good, of course, but shriek is better.
>>
>>553118093
>Large enough numbers will just result in shriek psykers running gaze instead and fire the thing indefinitely anyway
That happens regardless, if that's the problem, then maybe the abilities are actually what needs nerfing.
>>
Every single time I've heard someone utilize voice chat in Darktide, invariably it has been a voice training troon.
What's up with that? Is the genre or subject material popular among their ilk?
>>
>>553118402
Anything that attracts autists is going to attract troons because most of them are autistic.
>>
>>553118225
Putting a generous hitmass limit (something equivalent to 3-4 crushers or so, ignoring the automatic carapace hitstop) should fix the problem in the fewest steps with the least effort. You're forgetting that fatshark are as lazy as they are retarded, you're getting the easy solution, not the elegant one.
Regardless, I think forcing shriek psykers to instead use gaze is actually enough of a nerf. Gaze doesn't synergize well with the flame staff.

>>553118402
I'm on EU and barely anyone uses voice chat there. I've heard more actual women than troons, too. The latter only on NA whenever it's dead hours on EU lol.
>>
>>553118665
Barely anyone uses it here on NA. I've heard three voices that I can remember and they were all voice training, and trying to keep it down like they had a sleeping parent one room over.
>>
>>553119024
I almost exclusively swap to NA to play havoc deep into the night/morning, and people tend to be pretty chatty there. No idea what it looks like in the other modes, so I'll have to take you by your word.
>>
>>553114397
dependancy gives armor damage via crit damage profiles
>>
>>553119223
Which is completely pointless because dual uzi crits deal baby-tier plink damage against armor anyway. It's plain not worth it, because even with 100% hypothetical crit, your ttk on a crusher is still terrible. Once you have rending, the dogshit finesse damage on the thing kicks in and crits no longer do much. VM gives you a near constant +15% damage, crit chance,a nd move speed.
>>
>>553118402
That's basically any slightly niche online game now, not inherent to wh40k or darktide. The people who use voice chat in havoc are always autists that would vastly prefer to keep quiet but dont want to lose, usually say a single phrase so quickly that its impossible to really tell what the hell they just said and then they just wont say anything again for the rest of the lobby.
The only other types of people I hear use voice chat in this game on the american servers are consoleniggers who hotmic and occasionally say something in the most heavy ebonics imaginable, ceiling bird chirps and all.

Huh? You can just upgrade a couple dozen profane weapons from brunt's shop to green and sacrifice them to max out mastery. You don't even have to bother with the random drops after missions either, just roll brunt until you get the stats you want and take it to hadron.

I guess if you're new and you're not sitting on more materials than you can use, it would make sense why you'd still be grinding it out the hard way, though.

I just play Auric because the only thing maelstrom does is spam more disablers at you which are already the most annoying thing in the game even wtihout the bugged audio cues

It makes them upset when people like stuff from people they fought against
>>
>>553132920
You'll want to have a decent mastery on melee combat if you rely on shooting more than hitting since ammo is tight. If you haven't already, practice blocking and melee combos, it's also worth noting that when you're blocking, that protects you from all directions, it just costs more stamina taking hits from behind, so it's a great way to minimize damage if you need to back up or reposition.
>>
>>553105793
Yeah I don't get the Mk II Stealth meme. Unless there's a Psykanium bug (which is entirely possible), the sprint stab does the same damage on both marks, so I don't see how it matters which you use. And for anyone who isn't aware, you can shortcut to the sprint stab by tapping your block button and immediately sprinting. If you do it fast enough, you'll go into the sprint stab without needing to sprint for a full second or two.

>>553134850
Depends on what you mean by work. It'd certainly be playable, and I'd probably enjoy it (especially if enemy density and boss spawns mirrored Havoc's) more than Havoc or current Auric since you'd reasonably have a lot more build variety and wouldn't have to deal with party finder. Some of the Havoc modifiers are fucking dumb or outright buggy messes (lolrituals) though and should have long been fixed, but the snow never ends.

But I don't really care about the meme modifiers. I just want more enemies in Aurics. The HI Atonement missions from the last event were peak, and I miss them very much. If they brought those back with more elite spawns, I'd be very happy.
>>
>>553134934

the DHs from the shrines were like half HP, so super fragile because DHs already dont have a lot of HP. The real killer was people not attacking it because they think it'll despawn
>>
>>553139531
Nah, the other big killer was getting raped by everything else while trying to deal with it since it splits the team's dps output. I'm not opposed to the mechanic in principle, but considering how most people treated it, I'm glad it's gone and this is a hill I will die on.
>>
>>553139842
they literally died in a stun or two if people actually attacked it though. The only bad thing about the mechanic is that it didn't communicate to people that this DH isn't just ignorable, which is what people do about DHs in 99% of cases
>>
>>553140351
A "stun or two" is more than enough time to get swamped by everything else

>>553140351
>this DH isn't just ignorable, which is what people do about DHs in 99% of cases
Who the fuck does that and why?
Yeah I'll ignore the DH if a retard triggered it due to being retarded because it's not worth my effort or ammo unless I'm playing vet (shout + krak lol) because the retard will die in less than 10 seconds anyway, but every other time? Kill the bitch.

I know Huntsman is considered arguably the worst class in VT2, but I can't help but feel like Tucson Spear + Repeater Handgun is actually legit pretty strong. It's the only Kruber class outside of Grail Knight that doesn't feel garbage so far to me.
>inb4 Footknight with executioner sword
Still Feels like a gimped grail knight, like most of his builds.

>>553141835
I always found the Repeater really strong for Huntsman as well, fantastic for both bossing and special-sniping, decent against elites if you can land headshots too. I usually ran it with the mace for the insane THP gain and melee safety though. Then again, i never went above Legend on a good day.

Huntsman is considered the worst career? This is news to me, people usually fellate it for having big boss dps with the asterisk of requiring a lot of skill because of its headshot reliance.
I do personally hate huntsman and think it is shit, but I am open to the idea that this could be a skill issue.

Of the Kruber careers I like merc the most, his tool kit makes him literally John Vermintide and with halberd or bretonnian longsword he's super well rounded and fun as fuck. GK is good too, I like him way more as a boss and elite killer than huntsman but it bothers me that he's literally too good at killing to farm decent thp from trash mobs, and FK is just kind of mid to me.
>>
>>553142945
If they're in the way and I don't trust my retards, I'll usually aggro it on ogryn, or kill it outright on vet (if it hasn't stood up yet, because kraks just rape it before it even aggros lol)
>>
>>553143136
The spear's temp HP gain insane, like it feels bugged it's so good. Plus it's really good at killing shit too. Sleeper top tier weapon IMO.

>>553143042
Merc has like 70% less DPS than GK. Think about this: Would you rather be GK or Merc with no items and a Chaos Warrior patrol is aggro'd on you? GK every time because he's fucking busted.

His boss DPS isn't that high even if you land nothing but headshots.
>>553144195
>Would you rather be GK or Merc with no items and a Chaos Warrior patrol is aggro'd on you?
Why would I have no items? Unless you mean like bombs and potions. In either case I don't really lean either way very heavily. Probably GK, but like I said in general it's a matter of how retarded your team is.

>>553145172
This video just proves my point. In an optimal situation it has comparable TTK to other classes that are far stronger than it. Take away the optimal circumstances and those other classes would have faster TTKs, plus like I said they're stronger so they would perform better outside of boss killing. If you're really good at landing headshots it's ok but otherwise the class simply isn't very good. This video is also quite old, so I'm not sure if bow was nerfed after this or not.

Congratulations, you can now roughly simulate what it's like to be a malicelet.
Bonus points if you can train a pet to use your ability key. You aren't allowed to use it yourself, authentic malicelets only do that by accident.

I don't care about losing in aurics (though can't say I lose often).
Losing in havocs when you grind your own assignment sucks though. You have like 30% chance for director to not fuck you with impossible spawns, and when you lose these runs because of shit players you are doomed to demote. Because other 70% you lose either way, bad players or not.
Used to be even worse when every other assignment was broken and would guaranteed crash.
Of course you niggers don't care when you get carried to h40 for free.

Special/gunner sniper, gold toughness supplier and dedicated anti-crusher/pack of elites guy (krak grenades)
That's if you're on havoc 40 anyway, below that you just do whatever and kill stuff
>>
>>553176621
If you can pick your party, whatever you want.
If not, your priority is to kill snipers and gunners that are farther away (scum/arbites will handle the ones that are close). Also aggro pre spawned enemies before retards on your team rush to them and trigger bosses and horde.
The problem is that most of the time you will not be able to keep firing because retards on your team will spread out far and you will be forced into melee. You will have to switch to melee and defend a psyker. Your team will still blame you for not shooting 2 gorillion gunners they triggered even if it's their fault you can't do it.
After psyker kills the horde while you protect him, you slowly move to rescue point and rescue your retards. But you will probably die to 3 bosses before you get there.

NTA, but I rarely shoot ranged enemies on melee builds/classes, and when I do, it's predominantly Reapers (especially groups of Reapers) in open-ish terrain. I don't play Psyker a lot, but when I do, it's to go SG greatsword, and it's totally doable to just sprint slide your way to pretty much every gunner/shooter pack. If you're really going through that much ammo, I think you're probably shooting too many ranged enemies.

Okay, and? I clearly wasn't talking about anything to do with your frustration with your team.

That's what I was responding to, anon. The response is: stop shooting the basic shooters and gunners, and hit them with your sword, you absolute buffoon.
>>
>>553196957
Okay so now that I completely ignore gunners and just run across no man's land and die, I have now only used my entire ammo supply twice over from killing every special that spawns. My problem is solved, thank you for your incredible and not completely retarded insight. Feel free to stop responding now since you have proven your skill at the game.

Cause its space marines and wh40k is about space marines, everything else in the setting exists to either die to or worship space marines.

There's no good positioning, there is map knowledge. That's how bad players do havoc 40, they loop ledges for hours until director gives up and stops sending hordes. Knowing places where you can loop and trigger locations is probably what "positioning" means in this case.
If we talk about actual positioning, there is no need to watch anything, you just go with your team and always fall back when shit gets too hot. And always prioritize spawns in your back so you have a place to fall back to. Worst thing you can do is run forward to trigger more shit when your team is drowning in shit. Not rushing into the open when surrounded by gunners should be obvious.

The gun is there purely because its faster to swap to than a staff and pick off a problem special so you can go back to your melee faster, since scriers shits out such an unreal level of finesse and crit that your melee deletes anything in the game.

Yes, yes my paraphrasing wasn't perfect. This suddenly negates the fact that you shouldn't be shooting all the gunners in the first place. Continue blaming everything on your shitty teammates because your massive ego made of paper mache can't handle the teeniest bit of criticism.

Again, where are you getting this strawman from?

They're your own words. If you didn't want someone telling you to stop shooting gunners, consider not including gunners in, "Burn through my entire ammo supply three times over killing every gunner and special on the map." If you don't understand what you're telling us when you say that, learn to read. All anyone has to do to see it is scroll up.
>you have latched onto this
Yes, that's what my initial comment was about. It seemed like you were doing something slightly wrong, so I told you, assuming you were a newer player. It's not my fault you're in full denial mode about it. Well, I do keep humoring you. That is on me. But it's something to do while I watch youtube.

No, anon. Do you truly not understand the concept of only commenting on a portion of something? Do you think I need to respond to the entirety of your post or not at all? That's not reality. Your teammates' lack of skill does not preclude your own errors, nor does it affect the situation or circumstance that I refer to.

Probably 'cause I don't care about how bad your teammates were. Most teammates you get will be mediocre at best. It's like reading a post from an Englandoid talking about rain. I wasn't going to say anything until your somewhat petulant response to the other guy. Nothing would've changed that situation. Your teammates still would've sucked; you still would've made a mistake fighting Maulers and whatever else; and you still would've overspent ammo when you didn't need to. You don't see the point of my mentioning it. I don't see the point in you taking this so extremely personally on an anonymous, doujinshi discussion forum.
>>
I never shoot my gun. I run to every enemy and kill it with my sword. If I can't reach an enemy then that enemy is not my problem. Stop asking me to shoot my gun. If I wanted to shoot my gun I wouldn't be playing melee veteran would I?

So I'm also not allowed to fight maulers? Please give us your entire god gamer guide to melee psyker, I have been taking notes so far that I can't shoot gunners and now that I can't fight maulers. I suppose I just need to add more movement speed to my build so that I can run away from them even faster than the scum can?
>>
>>553195094
>>Burn through my entire ammo supply three times over killing every gunner and special on the map since they can't kill anything with infinite their ammo
Ah, i see the problem. This is why you bring Assail.
Assail has infinite ammo. It synergizes perfectly with melee psyker. It completely negates gunners and specialists. They become a joke.
If there's a group of 10 gunners, just spam light shards. If they're spread around i like to use the heavy throw. If assume you're running Scriers with Unbound (the last node). This will prevent you from self-exploding. Now you can save your gun for heavier targets like Reapers and Monstrosities.

This should solve your problem.

>>553204784
Melee psyker absolutely shit on maulers, so idk why other anon is suggesting you shouldn't fight them. With a force greatsword and all the buffs online you can reliably 1-2 shot maulers.
The cheat-code against armor blobs is the voidblast staff. It makes everything fall to the ground. But it's optional. If you bring a gun you still have the force-push move on your greatsword which helps a lot.

Any competent team with Skullcrusher and every class' available damage amp on it just invalidates captains. Only captain + 1-2 monsters can become problematic, but then you just kite until the monsters are dead. Maybe dedicate the one tanky guy to distracting the captain, map location permitting. I've sat in a corner tank-and-spanking h40 captains solo as arbitrator while my team dealt with the monster spam.

Yes. The mines aren't really a threat as long as you keep the perimeter clear. Obviously don't pull the fucker into a tight corridor or back yourself into a corner, but with enough room to maneuver, the bombs aren't a big deal. Plus, as I said, you just DPS rape the fucker into an inescapable stunlock.
Shield pops -> gets knocked on his ass -> you have your back to a wall so you keep swinging -> shield goes up before he stands up -> shield pops again before he throws another mine -> repeat

>>553217442
As long as you stay within the left and middle lane of the talent tree you should be fine.

One obvious weapon choice is the slab shield + a talent called Attention Seeker. It makes it so if a shooter shoots your shield, for some reason they stop shooting and enters melee instead. Also works on shotgunners. Doesn't work on machine gunners.

Alternatively you can try bull rush, it's better at staggering bosses for applying skullcrusher to them, but taunt is better for everything else

It's not toooking it's aggroing. Big difference. It's a really good skill point. It also leads to the 250% push power skill which is exceptional

You can either sit around like a faggot playing the minigame of "what enemy do I block next?" and pretend like your waste of a skill point is somehow useful, or you take picrel, pull out your ranged weapon, and quickly brace that if you're desperate for toughness regen for some reason (because you're too slow, bad about positioning, and thus not hitting enemies)
>>
>>553219012
>why waste your skillpoint on this better defensive node when you can waste your skillpoint on this also pretty good defensive node
You're not sat around holding your shield out, you just use it for like a second or two and bam you turn 6 super spread out shooters off. It's also some nice insurance against bombers and flamers where you might not have the time to heavy them (because you fucked up or, any myriad of reasons) and it'll turn those off too. It's just a very solid utility/defensive talent overall with the shield.
I don't get why you're so pointed about it, anon.

there's a crazy thing called coherency that activates when you're close to teammates, but many redditors insist that every single ability related to it is bad. so every class has the ability to amp up the entire team but i guess you get heckin downdooted if you want to take advantage of it.

Yes, it's awful.
The selling point is that Terminal Decree is awesome for sharing toughness regen, but your stacks vanish within picoseconds of actually playing the game, so it's actually dogshit.

Guy leveling vet from last week, thanks for the tips on lasguns. Laspistol is tons of fun holding down fire and banging weakspots for 30 seconds at a time without reloading, killing specials and elites before they even get close enough to be a problem. Now I'm noticing on my other characters when my team doesn't do that lol. Knife feels good with the mobility, have tried to go back to dueling sword a couple times for the stronger single target damage but its hard to switch off of the crack head 5 dodges and run speed.

Bleed is good, anyone saying otherwise is a contrarian retard. It's a long running meme now to call dog bleed bad, perpetuated either by baiting retards, or unironic schizos that will screech at you even when provided with proof. Install Power DI and track whether you consider the damage it deals to be worth it. The only issue with it is pathing, because you want Hammer of Judgment, and won't be able to get to RJA without pathing through Target Neutralised (which is a good skill btw)
Voltaic Mandibles is strictly mandatory, not only because it's good, but because you must take it to path to Canine Morale, which if you don't, your build is bricked.
All other dog specific nodes aren't really worth it, and that includes both keystones, and all damage nodes except Execution Order. The brittleness is okay, usable, but often not worth the point cost.

Watch the contrarian retards roll in with the (You)s and/or non-reply reply posts btw, they always get really assmad when you provide proof.

I don't care if it's selfish, giving up gold toughness for everyone else.

Bleed doesn't do a lot of damage if you look at it straight through scoreboard stats, what it does is greatly reduce TTK when the dog is pouncing enemies, which reduces the downtime to it pouncing a new target. Dog bleed is absolutely worth taking.
>>
>>553251843
The quirk about all DoTs, including bleed, is that they become exponentially more powerful, the more of it you stack. Under most circumstances, just putting 6 stacks on a target (that then quickly decay) isn't going to do much. It's when the dog pounces between targets, that the DoT really stacks up, and/or when enemy density is so high, that even a small-ish amount of stacks actually racks up significant amounts of chip.
You may argue that chip damage has little value, and I would agree with you, but for YEARS fags would obsess over muh breakpoints, and you can think of dog bleed as costing you 1 less hit to kill most things it applies to.
The main thing to consider about taking or leaving it, is the opportunity cost of 2 pathing points, or whether you want to path through No Escape (which isn't amazing) to save one point. Arbitrator can be tight on points, so if you intend to take BTL's support nodes for example, dog bleed would indeed be the first to go. I consider it to be stronger than BTL's cooldown reduction however, but that will depend on your choice of weapon. With the shield flashbang, BTL becomes much less necessary since you have another stun in your pocket. If you don't use the shield, BTL upgrades are indeed quite powerful.

People have told me to stop killing what the dog pounces. There are people who unironically see that we have been gifted a disabler who doesn't get knocked off with friendly attacks and they think it's pertinent to let the dog finish the job. These are Shoe Size IQ players and you should berate them.
>>
>>553252205
>With the shield flashbang, BTL becomes much less necessary since you have another stun in your pocket.
I have BTL, shield flash and dog bomb, firing them off one after another can absolutely break a horde's momentum. It has tactical applications at the cost of DPS, but I've always preferred more options than straight damage when it comes to these things.
>>
>>553252359
Don't kill a target that has a dog mark on it, the arbitrator might need it for remote det, but a currently pounced target is fair game. The only hangup is that you shouldn't waste ammo on them, because they're practically dead anyway.
As the arbitrator myself, I tend to ignore pounced targets, but I also know roughly how long the dog will take to finish each one off. Singular straggler mauler just gets tagged and run past.
>>553252438
Aye, but you don't need the cooldown reduction to make BTL good. It's already amazing without it, and it's rare that a horde survives long enough that you need multiple, AND that the next armored horde comes before your cooldown is back up.
Even then, I mostly save BTL to interrupt overheads that would mulch my retards. I use it the most to interrupt charging mutants. The shield bash has a shockwave in front of it, so you can get charging mutants at virtually every angle.
>>
>>553252359
>People have told me to stop killing what the dog pounces.
No, you should kill whatever the dog pounces because that frees it up to go pounce something else, just don't prioritise it if there's other shit in reach.
>>
>>553252359
As an Arby player I dont care if you kill a pounced target. But stop immediately shooting things I ping to send my dog on. I do it so I can remote detonate in a pack
>>
>>553252438
>>553252635
I should add that the obvious caveat is if you're using Arbites Vigilant with BTL, and are going for a max big dick DPS build. But such a build is costly, and you're likely better off with Lone Wolf rather than the dog, which takes more investment than you can afford to do both.
>>
>>553252635
>>553252661
>>553252770
I don't waste ammo on marked dog targets or on pounced enemies, but I will kill an enemy that is pounced if they are nearby or isolated. That dog needs to disable something else and not linger.

Oh I meant hitting it, not shooting it.

Yeah, correct assessment.

speaking of dog do you still make them attack ranged? it was way better than the elite one when it came out I think
>>
>>553254186
The ranged purple node also increases leash distance. This is a double edged sword, because you sometimes want it to stick close. It technically does more, but the thing it does is less good.
Targeting elites is obviously good, but not worth the point, you should be more diligent about manually tagging. If you absolutely must NOT tag, it is the pick.
>>
>>553254186
i don't take any of those nodes. Not worth the investment.

I started playing this game recently so I have not done havoc yet but I have noticed while leveling the classes on Heresy that it is nearly impossible to get most players to stop left-clicking hordes.

Nemesis system in Darktide when?
>>
>>553256121
Never since the mechanic was patented by the Warner Bros and nobody else can use it without risk of lawsuit.
>>
>>553256121
Never, it's patented now and if you implement it anywhere you'll get sued.
>>
I hate the american patent system so much

Does anyone have one of the older Steam backgrounds for Darktide? I want to replay the ugly ass HIV CUM character they put in the current banner.

Quick question, "toughness damage resistance" only applies to your toughness, does "damage resistance" apply to both toughness and health or just health?
>>
>>553257084
I went with yours since it has less black people in it.

TDR is toughness only.
DR is global, it applies to both.

This should be bannable and, more importantly, grounds for irl execution.

Let me guess: They were fighting at the very end, with the spinny green tubes, next to the lever that summons the capsules?

I must be retarded, because I don't understand how to clear hordes without taking damage. I've tried to spam lights, spam heavies, switch between the two, try to do combos, dodge, all that shit and it's still rare that I don't come out of a big horde without at least a little health damage. Am I just a lost cause?
>>

This game really needs a blacklist feature

>>553259527
And got boxed in by a bomber, flamer, or bulwarks and all died because they couldn't dodge? Deja vu, I've been in the place before.

You can block people from the esc menu.
>>
>>553259527
Got it in one try.
>>
>>553260215
Oh and I block too of course.
>>
what's the darktide music that goes boooom shika shika boooom peeeew peeew?
>>
>>553260215
best general advice I can give is to dodge only when you see something is about to hit you, and to utilize pushes and push attacks too
>>
>>553260340
Doesnt stop them from ending up in my games

Just lost a game because my team does not respect gunners in open areas.
>>
>>553261021
High havoc, right?
>>
>>553259420
I would prefer if you didn't--while it is a funny stunt by the cat, understand that its Indonesian owner abused it to get it to do that on command for the camera, it's a big fad in east Asia.
>>
>>553261175
oh dang it MacArthur should have finished the job and nuke them all!
>>
>>553260215
You can take a single hit from weak horde enemies and not lose any health provided you are at 100% toughness. If you have decent melee toughness regen of some kind then you can use that to your advantage. It's just a combination of using your horde clear melee combo, dodging, and pushing to manage a fight. If you haven't learned the sound cue for when an enemy is about to melee you then do that first.
>>
>>553261139
Heresy.
Arbites ate probably like eleven different obviously telegraphed poxbursters in the course of the mission.
HIV CUM was constantly dead from disrespecting gunners or crushers, I rescued her probably three times.
The fact that gunners were such a problem says all you need to know about the third guy, who was a Veteran.
It was the mission where Hadron has you going to disable anti-air at a train station, we died because they jumped down into a pack of like 50 gunners at the ledge into that final area and got mowed down immediately.
During the part where you have to babysit a bunch of different data interrogators, I was up in the upstairs area and every single time the interrogator stopped working it was up near me, and when that happens hordes constantly spawn like 10 feet away from that interrogator so I could not do the minigame without being attacked, I had to literally ping them to come here and help and each time it took them like 2-3 minutes to realize what was going on and come help.
>>
>>553260215
Push sometimes. It's an omnidirectional stagger.
>>
>>553261631
Damn, I knew blocking is omnidirectional but had no idea pushing is.

explains it, I haven't seen someone die to gunners on auric in a while now so I was curious

That’s south east Asia Jim you silly goober!

Whatever dude it's all slant eyed to me.

>>553260215
mix in push attacks. For example heavy attack -> light -> light -> push attack -> repeat.
Make sure you circle the outside of the horde. Avoid getting surrounded.
Try to stay close to teammates.

I do suspect this is my biggest problem: poor positioning.

xcom implemented something not at all dissimilar in a DLC shortly after
copyright is not all powerful, look at fucking Palworld
>>
>>553271995
It's not a copyright, it's a patent.
XCOM 2 devs complained about having to work around the patent and remove/retool some features at the time.
>>
THINK ABOUT IT
the most common complaint about ogryn teammates is them getting in the way of your shots
that's been the case since launch

so if your ogryn teammate moves less, then this is less of a problem

but the ogryn still needs to be on the frontline
thats where he belongs

SO WHAT IS THE SOLUTION
blocking instead of dodging most attacks
thats the solution

do NOT hate on your ogryn for blocking
