>>
>>553466054
no, and in fact you're better off with zero toughness curios. The higher your toughness bar, the longer it takes to refill it. If you are missing any toughness at all, melee attacks deal damage past your toughness. The real meta is 3 Stamina curios because blocking is how you survive in any difficulty past Auric

Perfect stat distribution is a meme, you can play H40s with a knife that has 75% penetration and 75% mobility.
If you can get the perfect stats it is great, but it is not at all mandatory.

>>553466054
2 toughness and 1 stamina feels good for dodging and sliding to avoid damage. There is an argument to be made for psykers to have 1 health to put them out of a sniper oneshot range but if I'm hit by a sniper I wouldn't be in for a good time anyway and would prefer the toughness or stamina.
>>
>>553466054
Toughness completely blocks ranged damage and reduces melee damage. It's your only source of regenerating damage mitigation. Almost every talent in the game no matter your class gives you some percentage of your max toughness back for doing things. So yes, maximising toughness is the right default unless you really need stamina (psyggers) or wounds (martyrdom zealots).

red weapons can turn useless dogshit weapons into godkillers in VT2, in Darktide all that matters is hitting Mastery 20 and max empowering/perking/blessing your weapon properly. Nobody likes the red weapon gacha grind in VT2
>>
>>553466054
You don't need any curios, but toughness is usually the best pick. Some weapons with low base stamina like the knife are improved by a single stamina curio, but others like for example arbites shock maul work fine without any.

>red weapons can turn useless dogshit weapons into godkillers in VT2
Why would you talk about a game you evidently haven't played? Red weapons add 0% power, they just make the rolling easier. You can have a maxed out orange wep with the exact same stats as a red weapon, you just have to roll for 20 more minutes than usual.

It always confuses me when people say this. Does Darktide having a sprint button and uh... mantling? really make it have better movement? I'm entirely neutral on this and it just feels like they added it because every game has to have it now, so I'm honestly perplexed.
>>
>>553467179
it wasn't hard to get an orange weapon and the difference between min roll and max roll on a modifier was hardly meaningful just like the difference between optimized stats and unoptimized stats on a weapon in darktide are hardly meaningful so just use whatever lole nothing matters

You do realize toughness regens by % of your over all toughness, not by a flat amount, right?
>>
>>553467287
>Does Darktide having a sprint button and uh... mantling? really make it have better movement?
No, because despite lacking those two things VT2 still had better movement. You were less sluggish when moving normally and you could dodge into a jump to maintain momentum for kiting and whatnot without needing to break your pinky finger with sliding nonsense.

why do some melee psyker builds recommend assail instead of brain rupture? im only an auric baby so idk if it's different on higher difficulties
>>
>>553467510
assail builds peril faster? idk really
>>
>>553467490
>only some talents do this
No, all of them do. Go check them.
>>
>>553467510
Because you have a gun for sniping specials and whatnot. Assail is there for added horde clear when you don't have Scrier's up, plus it gives you a method of generating peril when you need to (again when Scrier's isn't up).
>>
>>553467510
Assail falls off the higher the difficulty, it mostly gets used by melee psykers running Disrupt Destiny as a source for warp damage stacks since they take a gun rather than a staff.
>>
>>553467490
Can you name some talents that give you a flat amount of toughness?

>>553467510
It gives you much better malefic momentum uptime, and warp splitting applies to the shards.
>>
>>553467287
40k has guns so you need sprint and slide to feel like you're doing something to dodge hitscanning enemies
So you can do sensible things like overhead swinging a mace while sliding on your ass
>>
>>553467510
because assail lets you dominate enemy ranged enemies like it's nothing. You can face 20 gunners and assail will delete all of them easily.
meanwhile brain burst is very slow to pick them off one by one.
Also you can throw out assail, pull out your melee, and the assail shards will continue to go where you're looking, like laser guided missiles.
>>
>>553467510
Assail is good if you are bringing a high accuracy gun that excels in special/elite killing (revolver, bolt pistol) and your melee weapon isn't great at dealing with hordes. Assail can cut hordes in half if you use it pre-emptively, can make all the difference

Is so fucking stupid it hurts to read. Kill yourself you worthless shitposter
>>
>>553468168
Really good. It's worth bringing on arbitrator as a source of skullcrusher when you don't have an ogryn already dishing it out, at the tradeoff of doing a bit less dps than the arbites shock maul and not staggering ragers as effortlessly. Its special move is also insane at breaking the shields of captains.
>>
>>553466176
>
>>553465887
>>
>>553467510
Assail is better for being hyper aggressive due to its fast use. you can swap to daggers and just quickly shit all 10 off them out in a general direction and watch them kill everything in that direction while you already switched back to another weapon. Also assail scales better with warp unbound crit, shitting them out while at critical or after overloaded means most of them will crit giving you much higher burst compared to playing backwards with BB, having to position safely to use it to pick something off in the distance. The only time you should really take BB is if you're taking an infernus staff just for the aoe suppression m1.
>>
>>553468393
Not retarded, just insane. Being a psyker cooks human brains most of the time, basically the only reason the Seer is functional at all is because of the Emperor shard hanging out with them.
>>
>>553468616
its shield breaking capabilities is comparable to light attack spam but it certainly works
>>
>>553468393
The gimmick of either gender of seer is that they listen to the voices in their heads and think that the reality they're experiencing isn't actually real. So not the crayon eater type of retarded that ogryn are, but the schizo type. Maybe some anons here can relate.

Skullcrusher stick. Good damage.

Only before you amp damage and have your personal buffs rolling out. With skullcrusher stacked on the captain the light spam stays roughly similar while the taser move gets juiced up by a lot.

Fiddling with a vet laspistol and dueling sword build and asking for some input with my last point. With this build I focus on gunners/specialists/disablers and melee hordes, krak armor as needed and shout when we need the toughness or to make some space. I used to have it in volley adept for the 30% reload on specialist kill but the laspistol reloads fast anyway so I'm thinking of other places to invest it. I was thinking about:
>rending strikes for +10% rending on all weapons
>+25 toughness node
>keep their heads down for +75% ranged suppression to neuter gunners for the team
or
>drop desperado and instead take the +25 toughness node in the middle tree and bring it down for the +20 ogryn and monstrosity damage
I'm leaning towards the last one since where I run into trouble is when my team doesn't have much anti-carapace and gets bogged down by crusher packs and I'm out of kraks. Being more easily able to throw my krak grenade then poke and parry any that are left alive sounds good.

Learn to alternate between weapons to trigger blessings, you can do this in melee pretty easily
>>
>>553475083
When ghost is active and you auto dodge ranged attacks it also procs reciprocity (5% crit for 8 s on dodge, stacks 5 times) and duck and dive (+30% stamina on dodge/dive/sprint evading ranged attacks) so you crit even more for shocktrooper (crits with las cost no ammo) and never run out of stamina to dodge melee. Its fun but those points for reciprocity and duck and dive can be better spent elsewhere.

Also souldrinker and in fire reborn/essence harvest procs when an enemy that is affected by soulblaze dies. They don't need to die from the DoT to give you the 15% toughness and +5% crit for 5 seconds or grant a warp charge for 30% toughness over 5 seconds, you can light a group on fire and kill them with melee or a teammate can kill and enemy on fire.

Remember: Ogryn is the "low skill class" despite not being far tankier than anyone else in particular outside of very select situations, and having the worst dodges and movement mechanics in the game. Kiting with a dueling sword with 50% movespeed bonuses on a class that can turn on a dime and climb all fences? that's high skill. Managing to not die with a hitbox the size of africa, two shitty low distance dodges, the acceleration of a chevy SUV and the inability to climb 50% of ledges in the game? Low skill because it's slow

It's low skill because you can put someone with real life ogryn level IQ in front of the console (yes, console) and they'll be by far the most comfortable and successful playing ogryn.
No, even arbites doesn't compare, for one simple reason: The skill tree.
Put the retard in an information vacuum without guides, and don't give them a build. Give them an empty skill tree.
It doesn't matter how retarded your ogryn build is, it'll work just fine in malice.
If you fuck up your arbitrator tree, there's a chance you won't have the dog play and win the game for you, or if you do have the dog, that you completely miss the talents that enable the dog to play the game for you. It's also possible to avoid the good toughness talents. It's absolutely possible and downright common even in auric, to completely miss Soulguilt Scan + Target the Weak, instantly bricking your build.

No matter how you look at it, vet really is the one class you can't really criticize heavily, huh?

Really the worst thing you can say about the class is that the plasma rifle is fucking retarded.

I don't care how you play the class but that is peak low skill shit.
>>
>>553480194
Ogryn is both low skill and high skill, in a weird way. If it makes any sense.

When in lower difficulties you're a god that basically nothing can touch because you hit so retardedly hard and have so much DR and on top you get more health than others.
So you can literally just W+m1 through the map without issue.

In high difficulties (auric and above) you might have more DR than others but you still might as well be made out of paper mache if you get caught with your pants down. And on top of that you have a agility of a snail when compared to other classes, since you have the worst dodges and the biggest hitbox out of any of any class. Which makes you much more vulnerable to disablers. And since you also have the shittiest sprint it also makes clutching harder because you can't run away from the enemies like the other classes do, and you can't use the common clutch routes.
And ironically enough when you get to higher difficulties your damage plateaus out hard because your weapons barely keep up while the human classes are not effected at all basically.

It's both funny and weird and how much of a paradox ogryn is as a class.
To survive in the high difficulties lot of the survivability comes from map knowledge but also having game sense and understanding when to engage and when not to.

on low difficulties it's the easiest, on hard difficulties it's the hardest. All he has are stats that eventually get overwritten by difficulty modifiers (and in the case of Havoc, literally) and then all you're left with is an offensively very capable class that however needs indepth knowledge of movement and positioning to succeed, unlike other classes

You are both correct. I play enough ogryn myself to know. The thing is, fatshark doesn't care, and the ogryn playtesters are severely autistic and retarded. Top-end performance doesn't concern them. Low-end performance describes a majority of the fucking player base, so it's what they care about.
Malicelets ruined ogryn. Playtesters don't let him become powerful.

>ogryn "mains" don't play human classes

>players who play all the classes are basically unicorns
>players who play all the classes COMPETENTLY at havoc 40 might as well not exist
If you assume all of the above, it makes sense why and how some of the opinions when comparing ogryn to other classes are so incredibly retarded.

I weirdly think ogryn is mostly fine in havoc 40 specifically, because ogryn's strength is team play, and his weakness is lack of team play. Could maybe use some very slight buffs, but as a force multiplier, he's incredible. No amount of arbitrator cope can make up for taunt and rumbler.
Ogryn mostly just suffers in auric, which is a glorified single player mode, and recently (as of a couple months ago) became markedly worse by funneling malice tourists into the higher difficulties. If nobody takes care of snipers, bombers and specialists, ogryn has to waste a ton of time doing it himself, and becomes massively less useful. I genuinely think some slight buffs to his ranged weapons (including swap time, maybe even buffing that talent that makes you swap faster) would probably fix his problems in auric, without affecting the class' performance in malice or havoc 40.

No, why? He was broken on releaseb(as in talents didn't work).

>>553498531
Plasma obsessives are hardstuckie shitters that can't even make the 30 hump. The gun is top-tier but retardedly overrated. It has very little in the way of a gap to the boltgun for example, and the inevitable plasmatards disagreeing with me just don't know how to build that gun to hit 1-2-shot breakpoints, probably magdump it (LMFAO) and somehow obsess over wallbanging with the plasma and other similarly retarded shit.

Plasma, helbore, boltgun, bolt pistol, las pistol are all very good for their own unique reasons.

Oh also, combat shotguns are viable but they're kinda just worse bolt weapons, so they're a bit of a meme. They're alright as a sidearm on arbitrator, but vet needs a proper gun.
Double barrel is also usable, but only as a discount flame staff but DoTing in a different color. Requires a specific build, and the build is sub-par for its lack of piss tag.
>>
>>553498852
Bolt gun is ok, but bolter I find counterproductive due to the weapon changing animation. Helbore gets a pass due to the infinite ammo Shock Trooper gives.
I'm surprised to hear laspistol, I love it in aurics-maelstrom but does it give decent results in havoc?

You can run the swap speed talent. You can also just choose to host and filter out players that look retarded, get yourself a taunt ogryn, and never have any melee threats near you letting you fire away. But if it bothers you, bolt pistol can be played the same way, it just lacks burst DPS against monsters if/when (rarely) you REALLY need it, and has less ammo.
>laspistol
You can achieve close to 100% crit rate with it, especially with a BP zealot. Its damage output is retarded if you can click heads, and it has close to infinite ammo. Just don't shoot when you run out of stamina for Deadshot, if you're autistic about ammo.

Sorry for awkward late response but basically lots of things. The important thing to remember about Aeldari civilization is that it never actually reached its peak until after the Necrons took their nap. Another thing to remember is that the Eldar were one of the motivating factors for them napping in the first place, since they had already taken so much damage from the Old Ones and couldn’t withstand another war prolonged battle from both the Krorks and Eldar and other races the Old Ones created. From that point on, they were more or less the dominant race in the Milky Way and reached heights even greater than when they were around during the WiH.
The most significant thing you can extrapolate is that everything the modern day Dark Eldar, Exodites and Craftworld Eldar can do, the Aeldari Empire could have also done and way better, which is crazy when you look at it. The sad irony is that most of their technology was activated or required the use of their psychic abilities to work effectively, and since roughly 90 percent of that tech is with the Dark Eldar who explicitly cannot use their abilities because Slaanesh would assrape them instantly, it means that nearly all of it is just lying around doing nothing. Naturally, this also means that the Aeldari still around are as formidable as they are while using their equivalent of survival tools
We don’t know a whole lot, but we do that they were all immortal super-psykers (alpha/alpha+) because Chaos did not hold sway in the Warp to the extent it does in the current millennia. Sources on how they viewed DAoT humanity differ, some claim they saw them as equals, but others say they didn’t think anything more of them than being upstart children. They could apparently travel back in time personally, the more powerful they were the longer they could go back to ‘undo’ time. You could kill them and they'd just reincarnate as powerful as they'd always been.

They didn't even fight their own wars because they had armies of machines that did it for them, they were a fully automated society that had even mundane tasks done for them by “psychomatons”, these same constructs were apparently so powerful even the Necrons were getting bent over without the aid of the C’tan. They were able to keep the Krork at bay long enough until they devolved back into Orks, (although seemingly couldn’t wipe them out completely). They could steal and craft suns and planets and move them around as art pieces, kill whole armies with ‘a word’, had perfect cloning, soul-transfer, planet-wide stasis fields, Fireheart devices that could create or outright snuff out both planets and stars and make them violently explode, viral bioweapons that could destroy civilizations on a molecular level either by using wraithbone micro-parasites, nanotechnology, the panacea which could cure just about any disease in existence, nanoweapons, sentient psychic plagues that could spread from one mind to the next, particle beam cannons that can erase daemons, psychic bombs that could selectively wipe out the minds of entire races and leave others untouched, etc.
To add on to that, we more or less know that they largely abandoned their gods because they believed there was no higher power than their own, and if you take older lore sources, they were used as Warp weapons at first.
We even have sources saying they became masters over all dimensions and that they actually surpassed their creators in some ways. Then you also have things like the Exodite World Spirits, of which a single one used incompetently by a soulless Necron by the name of Orikan was able to overpower a transcendent C’tan shard and destroy 6 whole planets with casual ease. These spirits can also inhabit planets and control everything on them to their whims.

Eldar Craftworlds are their equivalent of private yachts acting as life rafts made by a handful of wealthy people and are so huge Eldar can be exiled into other places in them and never be seen again. Commoragh itself is so big they have several suns hanging over the city like figurative lamps to light the entirety of it. They have things like triprismic dimensional mirrors keyed to hurl anything reflected in its surface into the heart of a sun as their defenses. They could create extradimensional enclaves, and code them with various supernatural properties that responded to the will of their populations so that you had separate realms where shadows had a pseudo life, spirits could confront their killers, and where the flows of time occasionally reversed. Last but not least, their mastery over the Webway was so complete that they could do things like make gates that could be linked together for any kind of travel without the need for an actual tunnel, create unique parts where you can occupy your own quantum of time so that your trips through the webway are impossible to intercept, make it so that the Webway portals altered their destination to a million different locations, make nexus worlds allowed them to travel to any corner of the galaxy instantly, and apparently made it so wide spanning that it ran between galaxies. Oh and they could also use it to time travel in some cases.
It’s arguably the most effective and fastest form of FTL travel in the whole setting.
Maybe the craziest thing about them that a lot of people look over or don’t know is that their population numbered in the literal tredecillions at one point. That’s an absurd amount of Aeldari obviously (derived from an actual physicist btw), and would exceed the total amount of mass in the Milky Way galaxy itself iirc.

The Blackstone Fortresses (known as the Talismen of Vaul to the Eldar) were either Old One or pre-Fall Eldar ships with Warp-cannons that can one-shot any ship in existence currently. The Imperium only knows of six of them, but it's unknown how many in total were made. Two of them could destroy a planet, and three could destroy a star, with one famously being responsible for the fall of Cadia by crashing into it. What would happen if you combined the power of more than three of them is unknown, but considering the implications and what other technology at the command of the Eldar at the time, its very likely they could wipe out entire regions of space with the combined power of them like we know they can already do. Did I mention that their version of extreme sports involved things like surfing on coronal mass ejections with hand held shields as your only protection?
Even by the 41st millennium, Eldar who have their psychic capabilities nerfed by Chaos can see the future accurately enough to prepare for it and sometimes even alter it millennia in advance. You can only imagine how unstoppable they were in their prime.
And then there's things like the Tower of Heaven reality engine, that, even when broken and corrupted, was able to literally create entire armies out of nothing instantly through the simple wish of the user (as well as alter the world’s landscape in real time and transform the planet it was on into a perfect copy of Commoragh) and apparently had no real limitations besides your own imagination when it had been created by the Aeldari Empire (it’s very heavily implied that this device and/or others like it are what led to the birth of Slaaneesh.)

There’s more of course, but putting it simply, out of all the races in the galaxy, the Eldar are the ones who came the closest to replicating and replacing the Old Ones in all their might. I would kill to see them included in any serious capacity in a Tide game and actually done justice, but I doubt we’re going to with how much of a skeleton crew Fatshark has left at this point and with how shafted Xenos are in general in most cases.

He wastes 2 talents to get it which he could put in rending and toughness or ogryn damage
Shovel doesn't even make sense with helbore, fuck muh crieg larp, you could take infantry lasgun if you want to larp so hard. Doesn't even have skullcrusher on it, what a fag.

If you think that the characters stating an Eldar vessel is actively trying to communicate with us is the same as characters making offhand mentions to Necrons and Ratlings you might be braindead.

The one silver lining is that we know Abnett is apparently helping write the plot again and if his track record is anything to go by he’ll almost certainly want to incorporate more aliens into the story eventually. The only thing up in the air is how far Fatshark is able to accommodate him.
>>
>>553509440
>up in the air
Nothing about this is up in the air. Necro Sienna was delayed for literal years and given the courtesy of being the game's death knell minus the odd (admittedly good) map here and there.
Darktide is barren by comparison to this point in VT2's development. You'll get one half-assed alien NPC four years from now and a shuriken launcher (slightly retooled auto-pistol) and a spear (retooled pickaxe) to go with it.

When have they ever made a meaningful update to one without the other? Fatshark has zero excuse for not licensing some D-tier GW-approved writer to put out weekly updates for engagement and they actively choose not to do this. They never, ever leverage optimized/shorter turnaround elements of their overall development pipeline to cover weaknesses. Their affiliate creator has a whole Youtube video about how concept artists just sit around during implementation (he presents this as a normal and good thing, necessary to development, btw.)
The company is a retarded mess run by some moron who got one lucky licensing deal around the same time they gave the WH40K MMO to some Barbie Horse Adventure developer (i.e., would give it to anyone) to save his company from the embarrassment Lead & Gold 2 would have been.

>muh space marine strawman
Not all Eldar are equivalent to space marines dumb lorelet. Nobody thought Arbites was going to get in either due to the reject theme and look what happened. I like how you tried fitting Ogryns in there like they aren’t monsters capable of manhandling space marines and not even human themselves. You don’t even read the retarded shit you type.

>Darktide is barren by comparison to this point in VT2's development.
There's someone maintaining a little cope comparison where they have a side by side between the games. The darktide side is filled with super notable changes like
>Demonhost now only targets one player
while the VT2 side suspiciously skips things like the twitch mode addition and more. He also writes down every event in Darktide but none of the VT2 ones.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ayejEWpKL1RE3AK47sNlot1cW_1b-IurbgijVW_p10A/

And the funniest part? Even with all the cheating he does by not mentioning VT2 updates and writing up shit for Darktide that's totally irrelevant, it's STILL sparse in comparison. Something really bad happened to Fatshark during Darktide dev or shortly after release

>>553510858
I hate thinking about it. It's probably largely quiet waste, but as someone with some experience working both on games and in chill tech offices, it's to such a degree that even I can't empathize at all. I have no idea how you wouldn't feel like some weird Twilight Zone shit was going on if you were working there. They get one map done in the same time studios release entire games, they don't have mass layoffs, there aren't that many seasonal employees, it makes no sense at all. If I were a more conspiratorial person, I would guess money laundering. But it's probably just as mundane as you just sort of fade into the quiet waste and forget how weird it is after a few months working there.
>>
>>553511309
>I like how you tried fitting Ogryns in there like they aren’t monsters capable of manhandling space marines and not even human themselves. You don’t even read the retarded shit you type.
Nobody gives a shit, they're in the guard and they're subhumans often found among humans so they fit into the game's thematic. It's like you don't understand what thematical consistency means. Nobody is saying
>urr urrr this game can't have X
it's that Fatshark won't do it because it's not thematically appropriate. It's a look at a hive city from a human perspective. There is nothing interesting they could add that relates to Eldars or anything else.
Space Marines for example would be abundantly sensible in this story. Like they could totally put Space Marines in this too. I'm not saying they're equivalent to Eldar btw, I'm just saying they could 100% put a space marine in this if they wanted. They won't though because they don't want to. Same with Eldar. It seems to be you don't understand what the goal with Darktide was. It's very deliberate that all you ever see is humans, ogryns and some nurgle demons.
>>
>>553511417
Holy fuck that is pure copium, lmfao.

There was an interview a while back that I don't care to source where someone there admitted how difficult working over covid was and it kind of sounded like an accidental vent as opposed to their usual PR-sanctioned disseminations of how hard it is to be a game developer. They had a couple very public attritions, including the lead combat designer who could potentially have been responsible for everything the games do indisputably well aside from music. I think they just lost enough talent and have enough tech debt that they could be fairly honestly described as not really understanding how to make meaningful content for the game efficiently.
>>
>>553511043
So you’re agreeing with me? I don’t see how that changes what I said. Abnett has ideas that we can likely predict for where he wants to take the story and characters, but that’s only possible if Fatshark enables him to do so.

It wasn’t. If you knew anything about the setting you would understand why it was a shock given this games theme.
>>553511806
Your premise is faulty because they never said it was a human only show. The whole tagline of this game is “Rejects will rise”, and guess what that doesn’t describe? Arbites. Just because the game is primarily focused on humans doesn’t mean they can’t introduce other elements at any other point in time. They clearly aren’t beholden to a single theme.
>Space Marines for example would be abundantly sensible in this story
They wouldn’t be, actually.

Thank you. I’ll concede the point.

Why do you need attractive characters to play a video game? It's the Imperium, the average person is basically a peasant. At best you get a plain face woman and that's your lot.

All I hear is the bygone generation of 2000s teens going "waaaah they don't have bouncing anime titties to get me to buy crap!"

God just shut the fucking fuck up. You might as well confess you don't give a shit and would happily surgically attatch your lips to the corpo slop machine if it means they milk your penis.

CMs are notorious for self-promotion, and the entire field is handled in some ass-backwards way that filtered down from shitty early successes that likely had nothing to do with how the role was positioned. They hire nobodies willing to accept a fast food tier wage at the start of their career and give them access to an instant audience, which they then squander in an attempt to create some personal presence that they'll likely go on to monetize elsewhere or spin into an external promotion. It's such a shitty field and it could be so much better, so easily. Look at Warframe or even League (don't @ me about MOBA gameplay or whatever the fuck your autistic hangup is, that's not what I'm talking about) for examples of community investments done right.

They don't. Rosettes aren't mass produced like that, just inquisitors get one. I get what you're saying that the rejects become full fledged members of the warband (nta you were arguing with, btw), but they do not get given a rosette. That is purely a cosmetic fatshark thought would be fun to add, not meant to be taken as lore that your dude has an actual rosette.

desu this is probably one of the tamer things, too
i remember when the early access launch was being rightfully derided, he absolutely refused to make a simple "we know, we're sorry, we're working on it" post and made a bunch of excuses and put it back on the players, even at one point going as far as to explicitly say "it's fine, just don't make this game your life," continuing vaguely to suggest only people with no lives thought the game's content was lacking.

So if we spend 30 whole levels (I.e. the main measurable bar of progression in the game) being called rejects and being constantly reminded we need to prove ourselves while being called trash and expendable but get one cutscene saying we’re now cool it’s no longer the core theme of the game? we’re just going to have to agree to disagree

Correct. When things change they're not the same as before.
Also it's not just the cutscene, we unlock increasingly valuable weapons to use. We prove ourselves in aurics. We even undergo some sort of mortis certification whatever the fuck that is. We also get enlisted by Dukane for havoc.
"Reject" is not the main theme of Darktide anywhere but in the first couple cutscenes, which is like 1% of the game.

But they are though. I don't know what you're trying to say here. You're saying this isn't actually in the game and approved by GW and written by dan abnett? Because it is.. And given that all that is true how could it not be official? It's literally an official item, written by an official GW writer in an official WH40k game.

You'd have to be coping pretty hard to say that's not canon. Kind of astounding. I feel like sometimes, 40k fans are just autistic and they think their setting is some sort of actual ancient biblical text when it's literally just made up on the go, shaped by the media in it.

Sure, in that rosettes exist. If they were given to the rejects on becoming a warband member though there would be some mention of that in the last cutscene, or written reference or something, anything. But there's not, because rosettes are uniquely made for inquisitors, and the trinket is just a fun little cosmetic.

He's a deceptive class in that he actually has two skill floors. The first is just using him at a basic, reactive level, while the second is understanding how to use his abilities to preemptively stop catastrophes. Most people only ever reach the first stage, so they see him as a decent tank with good healing, but once you hit the second level you become an unkillable god, more than capable of handling everything in the game entirely by yourself.

It is a retcon for rosettes to be mass produced and handed to henchmen though, you lorelet. Like I said, they are uniquely made for each inquisitor. They have tech inside them that acts as something of a master key to imperial facilities and cogitators. They're a symbol of utmost authority, anyone who refuses orders from someone flashing a rosette can expect a blamming. They aren't just given to any old retinue member.
>>

This varies depending on source, here's the DH description saying that warband members can all wear the rosette, but there are also others that say rosettes are only for the big boy and holds the role of the Seal mentioned above.
i can't be bothered to dig into the publication timeline to see which version is more recent or more official, but even if the DH version has since been superseded it's pretty easy to assume that FS just used it anyway because they love taking shit from the RPG sourcebooks.

Anyone can be given and wear the rosette, this happens in multiple stories when an inquisitor wants to give their authority to a retinue member/not be present for a meeting where it might be needed. But new rosettes are only made and given to inquisitors.

Yes, the DH thing DIRECTLY contradicts what you said. It proves that the rosette is handed out to members.

Is not the same as being supplied with a fresh brand spanking new rosette. The inquisitor can choose to give their rosette to retinue members and that is allowed within the Inquisition, but they only have one to give around.

I know they havent done an unarmed type of weapon before but how feasible would it be for ogryn? Shivs already have the animations sorta so just do some shit and make it on ogryn. Theres already uppercuts and straight jabs (that one straight punch with the club) for special actions. Make them metal fists. Ain't no way GW would have an issue with that.
>spikes on front for single target mark
>blades on bottom for aoe mark

This is the only opportunity to really make an unarmed style work because of all the characters they've done in either game only an ogryn could actually deal with hordes and enemies like this unarmed or with fist weapons. Shivs/duel daggers are so close to God's intended way of dispatching his enemies.

A smaller sized rosette. That's literally it, they usually come fairly pocket sized but this is just emphasising that an inquisitor might not entrust their retinue with a big fancy one.

>>553531940
Please just post one (1) instance of an inquisitorial henchman who has their own rosette. That's all you need to "win". If it's a part of lore it shouldn't be hard at all, just one non-inquisitor named character who owns a rosette.

Anon, you dodged the question. Smaller than what? What is it being compared to when it says "a smaller inquisitorial rosette"?

I'll answer it for you: The original. It's smaller than THE rosette the inquisitor has, and it's given to his acolytes.
Now isn't it crazy that when we hit level 30 in Darktide and prove ourselves as a loyal acolyte and get accepted, we get a trinket that is literally a smaller rosette?
>>

But isn't this wrong technically? Like don't certain shielded weapons require best in slot charms at minimum to stun Plague Monks and Chaos Warriors out of attacks? I'm pretty sure it's true for Foot Knight at least.

Named character, not faceless video game mook. I'll keep waiting, shouldn't be too long right? If what you say is true there should be a bunch of characters in lore with rosettes who aren't inquisitors
>>
>>553532910
Yeah, it seems unassuming but it's super fast and shits out damage, you spam it by just blocking after H1 to repeat. Use brutal momentum and skullcrusher
>>
>>553532910
H1 you punch the shield out at head height, H2 you back hand the shield across your body that does knockback. H1 is a nice straight line, aim at heads with brutal momentum to take out a bunch of enemies at once. Block cancel to do H1 for horde clear, use H2 if you need to make some room.

>Smaller than other rosettes, dipstick.
So you just admitted there's multiple rosettes and acolytes and shit get small versions of them. Congrats, you accidentally just conceded the argument. No coming back from this I'm afraid.
>>
>>553532613
ah I see. Yeah I'd just start left, detour to middle for Stay Close and then go left again for Heavy Hitter. It's not as much of a tax as it seems because it sets you up to take Attention Seeker, No Pushover, and Bruiser, which I usually take even when I hard commit to the Heavy Hitter branch, so I'd be spending those points there anyways

So why can specifically a smaller sized rosette be given to acolytes, but not the larger ones? Loving your desperate last stand here.
>>
>>553532910
H1 basically magnetizes to heads. You have to go out of your way to not hit everyone in the head, and it has a gajillion cleave and stagger.
>>
>>553533110
>>553533165
>>553533569
Awesome, I'll give it a go once I get 20 mastery on the pick (which will absolutely happen well before 5000 heavy hitter kills.)
>>
>>553533556
Someone like a lord inquisitor with a big fancy rosette as befitting of his higher status is less likely to lend that out to retinue. On the flip side, if an inq has a smaller one that's able to be concealed nicely, that's more of a reason they might be willing to. In lore, it's usually also the interrogator who would be entrusted with the borrowed rosette, but there are instances of the muscle carrying it into dangerous situations to pose as the inquisitor, putting their necks on the chopping block while said inquisitor is safely out of the spotlight. Hope this all helps!

Now, name a character. Just one...

Best single target and stagger attack. Think it has about 10 mass cleave, so Brutal Momentum helps a ton in Auric and below.
>>
>>553533840
I really like the karasolas for missions where you expect a lot of ogryns. The special hook trips them and rips bulwark shields, and the follow up heavy is a nice single target strikedown from above.

Yeah, Rannick is Grendyl's agent, Zola and gang are Rannick's agents and the rejects/players are Zola and gang's agents, so we're pretty far down the line. There's the theory Grendyl's actually on the ship, but for as much as that matters to any of the characters, he might as well not be. Rannick and gang do have inquisitorial seals according to Zorin from the memory echoes, I don't know if that means rosettes though.
>>
>>553519650
Not weighing on in the convo but you do have to apply your own sense of logic when it comes to 40k adaptations and pick and choose what does and doesn’t make sense. In Rogue Trader for example you can outright kill Abaddon the Despoiler iirc, but we know Abaddon is obviously alive and well in the actual universe, so it’s just something you ignore.
Not saying this is necessarily one of those cases but you still have to use critical analysis usually.

To be fair, he's got his own fucking sorcerers who interfere with daemons all the time, you can probably kill him and his soul won't get gobbled up, so they can just rebuild him after he dies. Obviously not something that has ever happened though, because it'd mean he wouldn't have Horus' power claw anymore.

>Not everyone has surround sound
If they're playing on PC (and thus, actually able to download mods for shopclick), then I would assume they're using headphones. I guess there might be some small audience remaining that uses other audio sources, but there's no doubt headphones are by far the biggest chunk of players.
>>553551449
I genuinely hate to admit that this is also plausible, I mean I am truly loathe to admit it, but it is what it is. With that being said, the point I was trying to make is that all of the actions anon claimed were tells for mods are both common and easy for players to do vanilla.

They're just tankier versions of their usual armor types. If it works against a crusher, it works against a rotten crusher. The only thing you're not hitting is breakpoints, but nothing hits breakpoints against rotten armor anyway.

You don't need the scoreboard mod to improve either.

>You don't need the scoreboard mod to improve either.
But you do need some sort of tracking mod to gauge exactly how useful certain things are.
It may be easy to tell that Voltaic Mandibles slightly more than doubles your dog's damage and stuns enemies it hits, but it's extremely difficult to objectively gauge how much damage Razor-Jaw Augment does over the course of a game, and it's even harder to create realistic conditions to test this with in the meat grinder.
Doing a couple runs with only VMA and seeing it's expected to deal 80~100k DoT, and then adding RJA and seeing the DoT just about more than double, is as close as it gets to being objective. You obviously can't easily account for how many kills it actually enabled, or whether it got any breakpoints, but bigger number is bigger number.
>Figuring out proper builds is easy
You'd think so, but using Arbitrator as an example again, seeing Soulguilt Scan + Target the Weak (the two skills you must take else your build is bricked) isn't even a thing in auric, and still not a given even in havoc.
>it' easy to get the right blessings just from reading forums.
This isn't true either. I'd count gameslantern and plebbit as forums, and the suggestions they make are frequently extremely retarded. This place also makes retarded suggestions all the time. Youtubers cherry pick and lie for views all the time, so you can't even trust their havoc 40 runs as "proof" that something is truly good or optimized either, just that it's good enough to work. It's an extremely sad state of affairs when Reginald of all youtubers is one of the few that actually bothers to collect data and tries to present something close to objectively correct. Which isn't to glaze him, but to point out just how fucking pathetic this "community" is.

>TL;DR
If it were so easy, plebbit wouldn't be moaning about havoc being too hard all the time.

I've found that I struggle the least with that melk task when I spam rolling steel, orthus offensive might work pretty well, too.
If you're a big melk enjoyer here's another tip: the story missions I-IV have mostly scab faction and the V-VIII ones have mostly dreg, for the assignments where you need to kill those.
>>
>>553558106
Yeah Rolling Steel is the best for deathless runs, for sure.
Also great tip about the story missions, though I would personally advise to just reroll those assignments if you have the cash. They may give a lot of melkbux, but they're also really annoying to do.
I usually do
>8 missions completed
>1-3 deathless
>plasteel
>diamantine
>monstrosity kills
because those can be completed on any mission with any build.

I've had this happen a couple times. I suspect it has to do with the game (or server?) thinking you're simultaneously in 2 games at once, because your previous matchmaking attempt failed and something fucked up. Then the previous, failed matchmaking attempt never fully aborts, but maybe the mission continues, then ends, and kicks you out of matchmaking, giving you this screen.
Pure speculation, but I assume it's pure Sw*de jank.

I have a mild headache, so the only missing Imperial factions I can think of are Adeptus Mechanicus (I'm guessing they're next due to all the AdMech vidya stuff releasing in the future), Administratum (Scribe/adept in a FPS? How would that work), Assassinorum (Temple Assassins are near Astartes tier, so I think it's unlikely), and Ministorum/Ecclesiarchy (Sisters of Battle? I could see it happening at some point).
I'm not counting Sisters of Silence, Custodes, or Astartes because they're astronomically unlikely.

Even bigger issue is that assassins would genuinely solo every fucking mission in the game. Like a single eversor assassin is just basically a human blender.

Also nevermind that how assasssins are designed, they 99% of the time, they work alone on their assignments. Assassin strike teams do sometimes happen, but those are extremely rare.

Why do developers keep putting in vaulting for waist-high objects when crouch jumping is a better solution? Vaulting should only be a mechanic for climbing up things that are at eye-level.
>>
>>553573607
Doesn't help that they all have specific ways of being deployed and in how they operate. A Vindicare wouldn't be caught dead in the kinds of missions the players are deployed on, they sit their asses in place and shoot a single target from light years away and sneak off. Eversors are drugged into a psychotic rage, having them calmly walk around on the mourningstar would make GW pitch a fit. Callidus and Culexus are the only ones that would kind of work, but there's not much point to a Callidus given the nature of the missions and there'd be difficulty having Culexus assassins work alongside psykers. The four main assassinorum claves are right out, but there are a bunch of minor ones that could be used.
>>
>>553576304
At best we'll get a hotfix at the end of January, at worst it'll be in mid February.
Knowing Fatshark it'll be the worse option.

There's only 2 other assassin temples known, it's the Venenum (toxin specialists) and Vanus (basically imagine cyberpunk netrunners, but they spend 90% of their time being NEETs and just hooked up to computers).
And both of these wouldn't really work at all either, also again with these is that they work alone 99.99% of the time.

Those are the only 2 other clades that are known, and GW certainly isn't going to let Fatshark to come up with their own ones at all.

Depends on what you use it for.
Mag dumping bosses? Puncture+cavalcade or puncture + shattering impact work well. (Brittleness amps up bleed damage)

If you want to use it for sniping then you should take Surgical and Pinning fire.
>>
>>553577636
also puncture + pinning fire might be better for spraying into hordes of elites, but you definitely want pinning fire
>>

Don't build for magdumping bosses, it's retarded.
>>
>>553577723
i kinda do a little but of both, should i take surgical + cavalcade?
>>
>>553577950
Cavalcade only works with continuous fire I'm pretty sure, which is antithetical to surgical requiring you to hold your shots.
>>
>>553577473
Magdumping is for drooling retards (and zealots), you faggots know who you are, kill yourselves, your "advice" is literally trolling.
>Mk IIb, Unyielding, Carapace, Surgical, Shattering Impact
For sniping, if you stack a little bit of brittleness you can also kill crushers with a couple headshots.
If you don't care so much about crushers, you put Pinning Fire over brittleness.
Yes, you run this with Deadshot.
>Mk III, Unyielding, Flak, Surgical, Pinning Fire
The explodey one is surprisingly usable, as it instantly stacks Pinning Fire to max in a single shot, staggers like crazy, and lets you buy safety against bursters from range without killing them. The hip fire is whatever. The main downside is having pretty bad ammo economy.

Puncture is a good blessing, but I much prefer having a target die right then and now, over waiting for it to bleed out.
The most you should ever build for magdumping is Shattering Impact, because that blessing is still useful when sniping crushers.
Magdumptards are the reason people call the gun ammo inefficient (it isn't) or even bad (it's top tier).

I will get countless (You)s and unquoted replies for this btw because this general is full of Dunning Kruger retards who can't play vet.
>>
>>553577547
Clade Adamus are basically just Eversor-lite edition, and minus the psychotic rage.
Assassins as a whole just don't fit into a game like Darktide since for most of them stealth is their bread and butter and 99% of the stuff they do, unless they are an eversor.

Their job is to get in unnoticed, kill their target, and get out. And for basically every assassin temple, except eversors, the most succesful mission is the one where no one realizes that there has been an assassin. With the bystanders assuming that the target died from natural causes or just by happen-stance.
>>
>>553577819
no but if you queue for maelstrom it might put you in an ongoing one if there's room available
>>
>>553578176
Not exactly in the case of Adamus, they were a fieldable unit in 1E, so they're no strangers to open battle.
>>
>>553577950
one blessing for snipes, one blessing for magdumps.
Test surgical in the meat grinder and see if you find it helpful. If it lets you one shot certain enemies it can be good. But if not, get something else.
>>
>>553577950
then take puncture because it improves both
>>
>>553578171
Fuck off if I want to snipe I'll use a revolver, I'M MAGDOOOOMPING
>>
>>553578654
Then at least use the explodey one because it's kinda half-decent at erasing crowds with flak + Pinning Fire.
It's not like you need the old mark when you can just use kraks for anything you'd want the higher DPS for.
>>
>>553578171
here's your (You) since you're basically begging for it. There's literally nothing wrong with magdumping if you have ammo to spare. It's entirely situational. Saving ammo makes no sense if you already have more than you need.

Even for the clade Adamus stealth is of the utmost importance, they are not the "run in guns blazing" type.
In Rogue Trader those things were just called "assassins", Adamus were only added like 2 ish years ago and only exist because GW wanted to make some nostalgia wank over 1 model they made 38 years ago.

Also never fucking mind the fact that 1st edition of 40k was 38 years ago. Old rules are entirely irrelevant and do not matter to modern 40k.
New rules are the ones that actually matter, and as for Adamus, they are exclusive to the Horus Heresy tabletop game and aren't found in 40k at all and don't have rules in 40k

You're never seeing any of the assassins in Darktide, because they just do not fit.

AoE skullbreaker and Taunt amp on incredibly low CD? If you have a few very high damage characters, then it scales incredibly hard into making missions that much faster. You literally do not have to worry about holding a crusherpack in place with a shockmine if the crusherpack is instead dead within seconds. I feel like Ogryn is damn nearly mandatory for making rotten armor bearable at h40 because it's so much faster. Arbites does 'ok' solo damage but he really doesn't offer all that much to actually speed things up IMO.

>>
>>553586719
Skullcrusher assuming you aren't using his main weapons, which most don't because most aren't going to use the basic maul when most players are incredibly selfish and the other weapons admittedly are very good.
Arbiter however doesn't get access to soften em up 10% all sources
Taunt 20% all sources
Bonebreaker for 10% melee amp just for existing
And hard knocks for an additional 15% melee amp.
In a heavy melee centric lineup, that's 55% additional damage in roughly the same area as the ogryn and 30% for non melee sources like psyker.
That is all before skullcrusher. Just because the damage number isn't coming from ogryns weapon directly, doesn't mean ogryn isn't making the run significantly faster the same way focus target is. Hell ogryn is the best answer to the game deciding to spawn 7 bosses at the same time, which makes it an absolute joke.
>>
>>553587997
Add in that ogryn gets two talents to gain back toughness on light or heavy attacks right at the top of the tree and a ton of damage resistance further down, so you're able to stay in the thick of it staggering and debuffing everything.
>>
>>553587553
Which one?
>>

Yes you can make your whole team do double damage, but your own weps do half damage to compensate which inherently feels like trash. Also he has no wep variety (again)

>>553587553
I don't think that's a huge disadvantage, considering the targets that skullcrusher matters most on are relatively few.

>>553587997
And arbitrator has breaking dissent and target the weak. Counting valuable distraction the same as the other debuffs is a bit disingenuous because it's a 50s cooldown, which is competing with arbi knocking everything to the ground every ten or so seconds. They both seem pretty similar to me, maybe you can even argue for bringing both since everything but skullcrusher is unique.

if I wasn't a dueling sword scrub I'd use that. I really like it too. it's got a great move set

I don't know, I find the carapace killing on combat blade pretty good. On vet make sure you bring mercy killer over flesh tearer and take the bleed on melee talent.

hell yeah

power sword is considered good on vet????
>>
>>553593812
fastest kill time on crushers in the game I think

>>553592558
I guess my main concern is, how do I reliably make sure I have 4 grenades per mission?
>>
>>553593368
Have you tried the mk7 shovel? Similar move set, and kills big stuff in fewer hits than the mk1.

>>553593812
The empowered push attack hits really hard, and the empowered horizontals can nearly get double digit kills.

>>553594213
Pick up 1(one!) grenade pick up.

>>553593812
it's pretty good when you power it up. wet noodle when it isn't. I think there's a blessing that increases the number of energized swings, but it's still sorta repeptive playstyle

It's specifically one variant of it that has an insane push attack -> light -> light chain that does 80 quadrillion damage.

>>553593812
Its good. Just cumbersome to use. You can get overwhelmed with the sword pretty easily if aren't used to the *activates power sword*

I think it's overrated. Dueling sword is just brain-dead, and has tranny strike.

Navy. So yes, three possible imperial subfactions (mechanicus, sororitas, navy) before they would even consider adding a playable xenos (because GW hates xenosympathisers).

Some of their most well known characters are sympathizers though and have worked with them before
>>
>>553602783
Yeah, that's fine. You just don't understand the GW mindset, it's as if xenos/chaos exist as just framing devices and punching bags.

>>553518049
I haven’t though. The most I’d go is maybe doing a favor or something but no monetary transactions

It’s not their competence that’s up in the air, it’s their willingness to get their shit together to accommodate a guy who they must know >>553568696
