That's just a consequence of it doing flat damage. Don't use it in Havoc. This is pretty normal. Lots of things don't work in Havoc. You can make it stronger though, but it really isn't going to help as compared to being a lightning storm on command. The class also has other ways to help deal with bosses, the claw isn't necessary. It's fun to use in Auric and below though.

You know what, maybe skitarius isn't so bad in h40 in my hands of course
>melee did more boss damage than my plasma
Oh... hm. It did singlehandedly delete 2 burgles and stagger the fuck out of 2 rape balls that would've run us over, so it still did its job I guess. I wonder if any of the other guns are even comparable. Arc rifle seems alright for brittleness support but not the kind of gun I'd bring into havoc, plus melee blending with >70% crit already (if slowly) stacks brittleness anyway.

Run felt like a disaster but I was mysteriously fine most of the time. Having a bad corridor burgle and just letting yourself get vored to save the team is pretty funny. Ablative Wards is a good talent.
>>

>shooting horde with arc rifle.
>noo don't use the weapon for the only thing it's good at
have you even looked into how the attacks on it work retard?

you can argue that bringing an arc rifle is a waste of a team slot but if he already has the arc rifle he should use it optimally.

Very strong and comfy gun on veteran. Very commonly built incorrectly and thus often appears weaker than it actually is. Viable but outclassed sidearm on zealot. If you bring a gun on psyker just bring a pistol of sorts, not recon las.

Laspistol is better in every way that matters, except ease of use.

Only havoc "Heinous Rituals" daemonhosts do that if you let the cultists complete the ritual.

You can argue that incorrectly. All of the Skitarii guns are good. If Reginald can do a true duo with Galvanic, and Mr. Estrogen can do a true duo with the Arc, and you probably use Phosphor, you'll live if the Skitarii brings any of the three to the game. It's a skill issue if he does poorly with his ranged weapon, not the weapon itself. Otherwise you are going to have to admit that Reginald and Mr. E are better at the game than you, presuming you used the Phosphor and you're afraid to use either of the other two.

>>573889779
If you expect me to recognize either of those names no

>>573889837
Not my argument. I am pointing out that the Arc Rifle is not a waste of the slot. You can move the goal posts somewhere else. Otherwise you need to explain why a guy you think is bad at the game can do something you're afraid to even attempt.

I don't think fatshark balances it around anything other than "least effort for greatest financial return".

I think any chimp can make a better game than they've done and frankly that's what the mods do. Are you really going to say it's against the essence of a skitarii to have automated functions, early-warning systems, customizable huds? What about a psyker? A psyker's not going to have a spider sense of sorts or more control over their powers so they don't absent mindedly "click" their powers to exploding their own head? An arbites with their dog? oh yes the dog is totally retarded must be told everything its to attack like it's some brittish loicence thing.

Seems more authentic to me, and the only reason it's not in is because the swedes are too stupid to code it themselves or worry about alienating sweats. Fatshark is the one cheating you out of good gameplay.

Not because I don't think it can be done, just to prove that they actually play the game and unironically hold the opinion that vital information should be displayed in a corner as far as possible from the action
>>
>>573891113
You know you can move your eyes right
There is a reason why stuff like dodges and stamina is centered, while other things aren't. That isn't a design flaw, it's intentional. You don't absolutely need to know that you are at 79 health every second of the game, that information is still in your peripheral and having the exact information isn't relevant, if you want to check then you can glance because it's inconsequential for 95% of the game lmao.
Same thing with ammo. It won't disappear if it leaves your field of vision, you can track it with your memory, you do have object permanence
>>
>>573888238
>Very commonly built incorrectly
That being...?
>>
>>573890950
>I will still absolutely make fun of you if you use centered ui slop.
Some people can afford large resolution screens and play on full screen, where having the UI in the corner puts it so far out of your peripheral vision that it becomes difficult to pay attention to at times.
I don't like centered UI either, but I understand why people use it. You are just some salty turd-worlder and mad at people using mods because you got filtered by havoc.

>>573891574
So you'd be fine with having your cars gauge cluster spread out over the cabin? Speed on the driver door, tachometer in the rear view mirror, turn indicators in the glove box? You do have object permanence right? It's not like any of these things change frequently or bear monitoring right?
>>
>>573891625
The most common, most wrong way I see is blue recon las (the fast one) without Shock Trooper, often without Reciprocity, and many that do bother with Reciprocity take Onslaught (the stupid brittleness) to cope and shoot crushers with a gun that has no business shooting crushers.

Optimization wise, the reason to use the blue one is because you hate Deadshot, and/or really dislike how slow firing the brown one is. Brown recon las with Deadshot is as efficient as the gun gets. You fuel stamina through piss tag's stamina node and 1 stamina curio. If you have trouble with stamina management, do better. Stop sprinting everywhere.

Either way, not running Shock Trooper is FUCKING RETARDED. Both brown and blue do unexpectedly well with Executioner's Stance. All marks of recon las are generally outperformed by las pistol regardless.
>>
>>573891690
Because nobody is being cheated by it. If anything people can only benefit from it if you perform better. Do you really want randos in this fucking game to play WORSE?

You can't find meta builds online anyway, shitters who can't even pull their weight in h40 tend to have very strong opinions, and shit every website with their takes. At best they learned a very obnoxious kiting playstyle because they can't pass the dpscheck, and subject everyone to this torture.

Well to be honest as much as my talent tree probably sucks, I'm not too adamant about it. My biggest concern is the weapon. I'm afraid of looking up online and then finding out that the weapon I'm using is turbo garbage and I should kill myself for using it. I like using it.

The best you can do is just generic "Penance" lobby, good luck with anyone joining or sticking around after asking what penance you're going for because they probably wanted to do something else.

Ah yes, I'm so glad I have to go through third party programs to solve an issue of dogshit game design. I don't disagree with you mind you but developers should fix their dogshit fucking game first rather than making the players rely on third party software to patch the holes themselves.

>>
>>573898358
On scum, it is a massive DPS boost because his attackspeed is tied to extra stamina
On everyone else, it is purely situational quality of life. Some weapons really want extra stamina because the pushblock is the fastest source of strikedown nuke, like that one knife mark for example. Or a very good source of cleave/stagger to reset your combo on heavy weapons
>>
>>573897976
And they're right. The extra toughness will greatly reduce the chip damage you occasionally take. In h40 a psyker with 3 health curios will still lose two thirds of their health from one poxburster hitting them, and since they've given up all their toughness curios a double hit from poxwalkers will instantly get rid of the other third.
All you need to prevent the instant full death from a poxburster is a single +5% health perk.
>>
>>573898238
3 toughness is the best set up on ogryn. He already has enough health, also ogryn's biggest issue is ranged enemies, not melee ones.
So having more toughness lets you absorb more ranged damage before it becomes a problem.
It's also why I use Can't Touch Me Again as well. Having Can't Touch Me + FNP + gunner resist, makes ogryn very tanky against elite gunners and ranged enemies in general
>>
>>573898358
Stamina is objectively optimal on melee scum because you get a huge attack speed buff from it.
Stamina is theoretically optimal on everything else too, because it lets you move fast more, block more (while reviving), and push more (if you have poor stamina delay). It perfectly follows the school of thought that building defenses is stupid for some retarded arbitrary reason (nobody plays that perfectly, not myself, not (You), not some imaginary perfect player).

I like 2 health 1 toughness the most on most classes. Ogryn doesn't need or really benefit that much from extra health, veteran likes 1 stamina curio for Deadshot, zealot is comfy in auric with 1 stamina, that's about it.
I only run 1 health on arbitrator nowadays, I felt the extra toughness to be a little more comfy, and it lets me move one point from a toughness node into a damage node.
I run 3 health on psyker and skitarius with as much (non-toughness) damage reduction as possible because I fucking hate pubniggers blowing up bursters in my face.

>In h40 a psyker with 3 health curios will still lose two thirds of their health from one poxburster hitting them,
Yes, and a psyker with 3 stamina curios instantaneously goes down, or, if he has any amount of toughness chip because the host is the kind of retard to not acknowledge the power of purity aura, just dies instantly.
Toughness chip shouldn't even concern you most of the time as the typical "backline" type role. You don't have to run headlong into shooters and gunners, AND it's your job to render them inert, whether through shriek or bubble.

I only accept 3x toughness curio psykers into my AIDS havocs if I can't get any better. They almost always just stand in the goop and die to it like retards instead of nutting up and bringing a health curio with corruption res.
Putting 17+5% toughness on literally everything because some jewtuber told you so is fucking retarded, and optimal play doesn't even use much toughness if you're good at sliding.
>>
>>573898796
>>573898645
You get +36% from base stamina + adrenaline + rampage. What's an extra +12%? Combat axe cleaves hordes of enemies dead faster than they spawn.
>move fast
The next enemy is never that far.
>block more
Kill things, then revive, put +12% block and or +12% revive. If you're a Psyker you already have +40% block on your sword or however the fuck much it is.
>push more
No one pushes 12 times in a row, stamina regens.
>>
>>573899063
Block efficiency is a worthless curio perk, and curio perks are insanely valuable and giving one up for a meme like block efficiency is retarded as fuck.
Attack speed increases your DPS multiplicatively with other increases, you want the number as big as possible. Those extra 12% are likely worth more than "+20% damage", never mind how making more attacks faster might interact with certain blessings or talents, and technically shit like stagger.

Or, practically speaking: If you aren't good enough to run 3 stamina curios on melee scum, I'm declining you and accepting the guy who is.

All of this is irrelevant if you're running a Desperado build. Stamina is still good here, but so are both health and toughness.

I don't need to address your other points, because scum is the only class that can use curio slots to increase DPS and thus should, the DPS increase is actually pretty relevant and you don't see it because you don't understand the math.
>If you aren't good enough to run 3 stamina curios on melee scum, I'm declining you and accepting the guy who is.
This invalidates everything you have to say, because it remains true in every real world scenario.

You can run whatever the fuck you want in your aurics, I don't care. I also prefer health in auric where pubshitters constantly grief me with barrels and bursters. It's only reasonable.

Because the optimized meme team is centered entirely around an ogryn and only brings vet as the ammo bitch and literally nothing else. Zealot is irreplaceable purely for crusher spam to enable the ogryn because chorus is better than anything arbitrator can do.

+12% on top of the already more than fast enough +36%. It's nonsense. It's not noticeable especially with mixed heavy attacks.
That comes from losing, again, 46% extra health from just two curios, and you're a melee with 150.
>>
Skitarii bring nothing to the team.
>>
>>573900787
It's not unique to /coopg/ either. I checked out the *iscord a few years ago. Same type of arguments back and forth. And not to mention youtubers who supposedly are all part of the top 1% of players, all disagree about weapons, talents, blitzes, abilities, enemies, balance, you name it.

Imo this is simply a side effect of Darktide being rather complicated. I'm at 2800 hours now I'm still learning new things.
As for curios, use whatever works for (You).

I remember taking revive speed before it was cool, people called me retarded, "planning for failure", but it helped me save so many games. If it works it works. Different people have different strengths and weaknesses and should pick curios accordingly.
>>

What do you get out of more health over more toughness? Let's say you take chip damage. If you have higher max hp but less toughness, is the extra health going to offset the increased damage taken because due to less toughness?
>>
>>573901669
it's a matter of opinion and playstyle. If I go down as HS it's because I ate an overhead. In which case 46% health does nothing. The attack speed increase is fun, i feel the difference. And once you've beaten the game as much as I have, fun is the only reason to play.
>>
>>573901924
So you finally admit it's a bad choice and are arguing because you want a bad silly nonsensical build.
See how easy that is?
>>
>>573902050
that's not what I said and I'm nta
more dps is good actually, just don't get hit.
>>
>>573901849
Here's my school of thought:
Most of the chip damage I take is in melee, is only 1 hit, and then gets regenerated very quickly by countless toughness talents. Because I regenerate so much, it might as well be binary, the actual amount only matters against gunners and shooters. Auric shooters are not a threat. Auric gunners are not a threat against 3x20% gunner resist either. In havoc, I'm either in smoke, in a bubble, or the gunners are suppressed, or I have piss toughness on me, or all of the above.
I extremely rarely, if ever, take relevant amounts of damage from gunners and shooters, assuming I am able to do anything about it.
If I can't do anything about it, my toughness gets shredded to shit anyway. It's likely because I'm grabbed or disabled and also likely in fire at the same time, which also deletes toughness. Fart clouds also delete toughness. Bursters ignore toughness. AIDS puddles and burgle puddles go directly to health. In fact, enemy overheads that might ordinarily kill me through corruption alone, might leave me with a sliver of health now that I am using health curios.

If you never take relevant amounts of chip damage, and have lots of toughness generation, the amount of toughness that you have doesn't matter.
+% toughness also doesn't (directly) scale with gold toughness, which I don't need in auric, and assume I have whenI need it in havoc. And with gold toughness on I'm fine without the curios.

Also I play aggressively forward, so pubtards always ignorantly blow up barrels and bursters near me.
>>
I tried 2 health curios, feels like shit, you take damages as soon as you face a wall of gunners

another coopg L, probably another trick from the indian poster
>>
>>573902128
Yes you're that anon.
You get hit. Everyone gets hit. You're untouchable until you aren't, most people in this thread probably are. You manage to not get hit for a long time, but eventually, you get hit. You got hit by the overhead too.

>>573901849
Against ranged you only need enough to not get instantly shredded in case you misstimed a slide etc.
In melee you essentially either have 100% toughness or not 100% toughness.
Against other dangers, it's usually health damage.
>>
>>573902361
You do this on all classes?
>>
>>573902869
>arbitrator
I prefer 2 toughness curios after the toughness nerf, but I've contemplated running 2 health instead, in part to support True Grit. I'm not sure I'd be comfortable running 0 toughness in my builds, because arbitrator is the rare exception where you do take some inevitable chip. Especially when forcing objectives with stun immunity.
>scum
I prefer 3 health, but I mostly play ranged builds.
>ogryn
The rare exception where I think running max toughness is quite effective. 300 health is already too much for anything to really harm, even if you go light on DR talents. But I do run max flamer resist, so that does make a big difference.
>psyker
I'm projectile immune 90% of the time, I don't need toughness. All health.
>skitarius
I almost always run the toughness aura, so I have such silly amounts of regen, the actual value doesn't matter. All health, both global DR talents at top and bottom.
>veteran
I try to run at least 1 health curio, but I do feel like vet needs at least 1 toughness, and often wants 1 health. But vet is my least played and worst class, so I can't speak with too much authority.
>zealot
All health, with health regen talent. Survives just about fucking anything, including crusher overheads (assuming SoC is available).

Anyone who thinks their curio setup is the "correct" setup, is retarded. You have opinions. But different people play the game differently. People have different strengths and weaknesses.
If you're doing better when you run HP, then HP is correct for you. I have tested HS with 3x stam, 3x tough, 3x HP, and different combinations with all of the above. HP didn't do anything for me so I stopped running it. Please understand I value my own real experience from trial and error above some argumentative random on the internet. I have nothing more to say on the matter.

With a health curio and corruption resist, even low health classes can kinda just run through most of it. By the time you're done with the objective, zealot aura will have removed the purple. It just requires that you have enough DPS to murder your way through without stopping in a puddle, although I've noticed crusher special's stun explosion also clears the way quite nicely.

I wish they actually got into Ork spirit and focused on making your vehicles as customizable as possible, essentially getting you into the role and making you make shit yourself out of scrap and then compete with what you've made.
Like Kithack but focused just on ground vehicles and combat.

Or even just have more meaningful gameplay customization of your vehicles like tuning. As it was it was incredibly shallow so I'm not surprised most people abandoned it relatively quick.

This should be a mark thing. Ripper guns are supposed to be inaccurate, lore wise. But I can see the appeal of giving Mk6 a reason to exist by making it "the very accurate one". MkV is already reasonably accurate. Mk2 should stay as the wide spread ripper.

IMO ripper guns are very close to being good. They are good in Auric but that's not what the game is balanced for any more.
>>
>>573914301

Tightening the spread on rippers isn't bad, it would keep their niche largely the same.
Arguably the Spread issue might get fixed if they just fixed the bug where for some reason rippers have inverted stability stat. Since stability effects both recoil and how much the reticle "blooms" during hipfire.

I do still want the Unyielding damage buff, it'd make them actually worth considering to bring into havoc.

>buff the light attacks on the Slab Shield so doing combos is worth doing, also get rid of shield stance and give it a power maul already, or make a new variant

The latter.
Season 1 havoc when it released was unironically way more easy difficulty wise, the only threat it had to offer was shooters.

I just pull out my arc rifle and zap them. High impact weapons also kinda rape them, like anything arbitrator or ogryn. Staff psyker barely acknowledges them. Greatsword beam does a chunk. Flames don't discriminate.

Any ranged weapon that can put out a lot of damage quickly tends to stagger them and let you unload into them to kill then in like a second or two.
Almost every melee weapon will take a long time to kill just one vanguard.

Pysker staffs, ogryn rumbler, arc rifle etc. Basically anything that doesn't care about shields in the first place. When they show up in numbers from 1-4 they can be dealth with reasonably quick using most melee weapons too. But I have started to run in to situations where I get a spawn of 10+ to deal with and that's just cancer.

I still think that they should have copied ratclick bulwarks and/or the ratclick shielded storm vermin. Those enemies were similar to vanguards in that they were tanky when part of a horde and made it harder for you to just mindlessly cleave everything, but you could actually just outplay them and quickly kill them if you could isolate or outflank them.

DoTs do work well since they always do damage against the base armor type of an enemy which are unarmoured and flak armored for the dreg and scab vanguards, respectively. I really wish they were elites so they'd proc stuff like Kinetic Flayer and Perilous Combustion though.

Relic blade if you want to have fun with a good weapon.
Thunder hammer if you want to learn the jankiest, most questionable melee weapon in the game, but also dopamine bonk bosses.
Chain axe is neat, but make sure you use whatever mark bites against armor on light attacks.
Shock Maul requires Skullcrusher else it's unusable, so keep that in mind.

My vote is relic blade, since it's your best class exclusive. Aim for something like picrel. Those are the best damage blessings. Flak can be unyielding if you intend to use it with stealth. Heat management 76% is an autistic breakpoint, doing 60% mobility is just fine, don't worry about it.

arc rifle melts them
flamer melts them
recon lasgun usually hits their head and feets and sets them on fire

if you are on ogryn the single target attack chain (light-light-heavy) on the power maul 3 hits them on auric IIRC

powered up mode relic blade, power sword and arc maul kill them pretty quickly if you use the single target attack chain

I've swapped back and forth between them. The main thing is there is no sprinting/sliding in ratclick, but your default running speed is faster in ratclick.

If anything playing both in parallel helped me develop skills that are generally applicable to tide games much faster than if it had been only one.

Yes, havoc players are much more likely to actually understand the weapon marks and test which one is best, and have done those tests, and correctly concluded that the green one is dogshit.

zealot has wounds that basically act as mini toughness bars if you pick that wound gating talent so it makes sense to woundmaxx. also for martyrdom obviously, it just doesn't make sense without wounds

for everything else toughness is the retard proof pick. being able to make it to cover when you fuck up is going to save the typical retard such as myself more often than anything else
>>
>>573933282
Blue has the highest close range dps and fully stacks infernus the fastest. There are more things to shoot and they must die faster.
Brown has the highest ammo efficiency and as you've already read hits more things per shot. Havoc removes 60% of the ammo refund from pickups.
Green is still a fine pick though, the las pistol anon is just a little too opinionated for reasonable discussion.

For martyr build zealot is 3 wound curios better than 2 + something else? With 2 you go to 6 which lets you cap martyrdom (caps at 5)

The advantage of 7 wounds over 6 is that when you get the maximum heal from holy relevant you're still at maximum martyrdom stacks, and in general you get to have a slightly more forgiving health buffer to play with.

ammo is rarer in ratclick. The kind of yippekeaiayyy magdumping that ranged specialists in shopclick can accomplish largely can't be accomplished in ratclick. The mage careers can do a lot of casting like psyker, but they have to fuck around with the heating/cooling song and dance. Drakfire pistols are mage-light and they've alaways been meme choices. Flamethrowers go through the same mage heat/cool cycle and are outright detrimental to the team outside of highly organized play at modded difficulties. The javelin/axe and moonfire spend more time recalling their weapons/cooling down than they do shooting, and are suited for long term endurance where they sporadically snipe a small number of high value targets.

The only real outlier is the crankgun when you have a team that babysits your ass. The crankgun can magdump all damn day. I stand by my statement that by and large ammo is more precious in ratclick and you're generally fucking retarded to waste it on trash.

Which I guess reminds me:
>>573932157
do not use flamethrowers in ratclick. They're fucking memes in ratclick. Ratclick doesn't have toughness. It relies upon temporary HP generation, which is largely acquired by fighting in melee. In most situations it's not much different than regenerating toughness via combat, but some fucking nigger using a flamethrower to vaporize all of the completely harmless clan rats can completely deny your team valuable THP.

the big difference in combat is the temp hp. VT2 if you take a bad hit, you can pull out of it simply by fighting harder. Hp is a resource to spend and gain as needed.
In Darktide, if you take that bad hit there is no recovery until you reach a healing source. hp is a resource to be protected. you must play to preserve your remaining hp and be more cautious of things that can drop your toughness protection.

toughness will reduce damage by 100% at 100%, your ability to keep at or close to 100% is significantly easier than vt2, where you need to back off sometimes in vt2, but in darktide focuses on high aggression

That entirely depends on your weapon and THP talent. Some careers have an easier time replenishing THP than others. The careers with "THP on stagger" that had access to weapons like the great hammer or flail could generate ludicrous amounts of THP in the middle of a horde.
>checking Ranald's gift
>the Stagger THP talent now replenishes 0.25 HP on killing blow
Since when did they buff it? The fact that it didn't give THP on kill used to be one of its only weaknesses, but it only came into play on baby difficulties. The main problem with THP on stagger was that it doesn't give you much of anything vs monsters.

I do not agree with your statement of "your ability to keep at or close to 100% is significantly easier than vt2" when it comes to something like IB/FK/GK/WP/UC balls deep in a horde with weapons like greathammer/bret sword+shield/flaming flail/shield+flail/twin hammers.
>>
>>573932157
I think the biggest difference is actually the teamplay. Ratclick relies on good team coordination, while in Darktide it's often optional since many classes are pretty much able to function autonomously. Reasons being, in ratclick, there's friendly fire, specialists that can't easily be taken out by melee-only careers, the way THP works that someone else already mentioned, and resources being scarce compared to Darktide. All things that need people to cooperate as a team to a much greater degree. And on top of that, if you want the best loot, you MUST carry all the books to the finish. Another thing that's optional in Darktide, since the books in it just give a bit of extra crafting materials.

The Rippergun?
>>
>>573939138
Some classes struggled more than others at replenishing THP. Some of the careers that only had access to "on crit/headshot" and "on kill" could have difficulty regenerating THP.

Looking over the careers, that was shade, sott, WHC, and BH. WHC can mitigate that by popping ult and going to town with guranteed crits in an emergency. SOTT also didn't have trouble since her presence in the party boosts healing rates anyway. Shade can just fuckoff and be invisible when she's in danger. So that basically just leaves bounty hunter as the squishy one that doesn't have an emergency get out of jail free button.

I loved this talent on necromancer. You could gain so much THP from those ghost balls. Which means more casting, which means more heat, which means more ghost balls.
>>
>>573939768
They've re-worked those THP talents since.The one that grants THP on crits now also grants a bit on every melee swing. SOTT is also busted as fuck if you're in a team with an ironbreaker, since she gets all the excess THP from the entire party and ironbreaker generates tons of excess THP just from never taking serious damage.
>>
>>573940117
> since she gets all the excess THP from the entire party
I forgot about that passive. I knew that she wasn't squishy since she gained THP like crazy, but I forgot precisely why despite not having the best THP talents.

Block cost reduction is actually a useful stat in ratclick since it was easier to stack it to stupid high values. IIRC Handmaiden can achieve 90% block cost reduction between the weapon stats, her necklace, and a talent. Stamina is also more plentiful since dodging doesn't prevent you from regenerating stamina.

I had the same problem when I first played vet into damnation starting out and it was mostly the fact that my horde clear was no longer hitting one hit breakpoints and I wasn't used to dodging, blocking and pushing my way out of trouble. also, depending on your build and curio setup you will eventually hit a point where a single gunner can hose you down and kill you almost instantly if you're not dodge sliding and that's a big filter moment

my suggestion would be to learn to play other classes and builds, get more experience in the game. if you've been doing one build only so far it will force you to break your current habits and learn more mechanics

I don't think it's counted as a generating event under the hood. The game registers specific event triggers, and those increment people's toughness counters one at a time, looking at modifiers. The skitarii domes someone, triggers an event, that triggers some toughness. It doesn't trigger another event on the vet.

build is workable all the way to the top but you need to learn how to stay clear of horde and gunners.

what exactly is killing you the most? gunners, melee mix, armor blobs? in the lower difficulties you can chop your way out of any trash mob but at auric/damnation you start having to kite and push cycle hordes with the dueling sword. also just in general you should just be a lot more mindful of what your team is doing and trying to not get isolated when you're out of grenades and ammo

To show that Imperium largely creates its own problems. Chaos is a good example of this.
Chaos is only as rampant as it is within the Imperium solely due to Imperium's own actions and retardation. The brutality and inhumanity they subject their citizens to and in general treating them like cattle, is a key driving factor as to why they join up with fringe cults.
Also in general treating the citizens like shit applies lot of mental stress on them which can then lead them to start hearing the whispers of Chaos.

>getting fucked by flamers.
you're the vet. your job is to shoot them before they become a problem. that's also one thing that changes as the game increases in difficulty I guess, flamers go from a nothingburger to a priority threat. so much so that you should drop anything short of a trapper about to shoot or a dog about to pounce and switch your attention to removing the flamer ASAP. especially if there's a lot of shit on screen and there's more than one, they are one of the more common team wipe triggers.
>overhead
movement and practice, manage your stamina and dodges (they are not the same resource, you push/block while recharging dodges and dodge while regenning stamina) to stay out of their way. don't let yourself get cornered.

I personally found that spending a few dozen hours on zealot really really improved my melee pathing skills
>what's the meta
>hordeclear
dueling sword has garbage hordeclear in the higher difficulties, it's a headshot sniper weapon for killing elites.

the most braindead easy melee on vet is power sword with the blessing that gives you three hits per charge.

>mobility
run a pistol or summat

more of a defensive choice it takes longer to kill shit

all these weapons work and the dueling sword works too. I am simply pointing out that if you want horde clear specifically the light fast low stagger low cleave weapons are not the best tool
>>
>>573943606
Interestingly enough they started fixing that with hive scum, who have voice lines that tell you to shove them and fuck off. Clearly they know those lines are stupid, they're just too lazy to go back and fix them on 5 old classes.
>>
>>573943794
Shock maul cleans hordes relatively fine in aurics, only slows down H30+. I do have a massive hate boner for the power sword so I could be biased.

I recommended knife because I still think bolt pistol/knife is vets best build due to the sheer mobility out the ass you get to simply fuck off from any situation you don't like. But I haven't played it in havoc since the tranny strike nerf so I might be wrong.

knife is best for clearing the horde (by running away from it and making it someone else's problem)

shock maul is better than dueling sword or knife for actually fighting the horde but it's not going to have the kind of DPS you can get out of spamming the power sword charged attacks. good overall defensive utility though, easy to play with. of all the weapons I've tried on vet it's the one that I usually end up taking the least damage on.

Should I increase the height of my zealot/arbites to better score horizontal headshots on hordes? Up until this point I've kept everyone the default height.

The beauty of 40k is all of that stuff is intentional whereas with others it isn’t.
It’s a core feature of the setting to have the audience be able to pick and choose what is and isn’t the case through the “everything is canon” statement as info comes from biased sources, unreliable word of mouth, crazy people, etc.
The random novel in question would still be just as valid as anything else, but GW does actually pay close attention to details make sure things aren’t *too* contradictory (they’re not going to let anyone kill off Abaddon for example and then have him show up in another book completely inexplicably fine).

The books work on narrative rules, and are exceptional circumstances in the setting. The tabletop is balanced because you can't have a wargame if one or two factions are obviously superior to the rest. It does not have to make sense in any other way.

The tabletop is not the sole or ‘end all’ source of canon. By GW’s official policy it’s just as valid as the table top itself. This sounds like you being insecure you aren’t as familiar with one as the other. The explanation is that that’s a key feature of the setting to allow for creative freedom and flexible circumstances.

>>573961848
You should take what you want to accept as fact. 40k is not a standard shared universe. Lots of stuff is up for interpretation and this is by design. Saying "X source is more valid than Y source" is directly contradicted every single time GW speaks out on canon policy (except for where it obviously doesn’t apply like in an adaptation doing something that wouldn’t make sense). I mean the chief editor and lead designer puts it pretty simply himself:

Not trying to be an autist, but why?
>>
>>573963129
adb books are on the better end of 40k literature thoughever
(this means little because 40k books are gutter tier genre fiction at best)
>>
>>573963532
I already said why??
>>
>>573963347
Please don't play a gun zealot. If you want to shoot but you think the vet is too squishy, then play an arbites or an ogryn
>>
>>573963509
Parrying with the sword costs stamina and a lack of stamina is one of the skitters weaknesses
>>
>>573961850
Play Auric Maelstrom and eventually you're going to run into 15 dreg shotgunners stacked on top of each other
>>
>>573963582
Oh yeah. I guess hit them on the head or switch to smite and let your teammates be crusher jannies.
>>
>>573961389

You also use scrier's for gun builds

His prose is genuinely awful

Not that abnett is much better in general, I've yet to read a story of his that didn't end when the load bearing big bad died. Every fucking gaunt book is like that.

I had the most fun recently playing a mag dump spearhead boltgun Veteran. I would basically save my ammo for packs of ragers and full auto into them. Also with at least 1 crit I could kill a crusher in 6 rounds. Absolute hell on earth dealing with ammo hungry teammates though.
>>
>>573964043
I meant to say you SHOULD use scrier's on gun focused builds
>>
>>573964124
Oh
The gun's just there to fill the slot really
>>
>>573963113
my team immediately kills them
>>573963746
i'm too bad for that...
>>
>>573964196
Use a bolt pistol, it can kinda kill crushers
>>
>>573964196
Then what are you building around?

Best with scrier's

Excellent staff, quite safe to keep out 99.99% of time if you feel melee is a dirty word.
Ball spam on primary for excellent ranged domination with high suppression and acceptable damage to eliminate ranged enemies while you suppress.
Blast on Secondary to juggle melee elites and obliterate trash.
One should weave both attack types in to ensure complete enemy control

Add Warp Nexus and Blazing Spirit; The area of effect for applying the soulblaze is huge, three times bigger than the glowing pie plate (anything that is even mildly tickled by the stagger gets blazed). Ranged blazing spirit soulblaze stack cap is only 6, but that is just enough to burn out gunners and below. So while you juggle and blast the melee elites to death the surrounding trash also burns out

Why does fatshark limit us to only 8 build preset? Are they not confident players can have that many presets for one operative?

Vet penances gotta be the worst of all. Tedious bullshit on the most boring class.
>>
which grenades does lethal proximity ACTUALLY affect? I know it doesn't change the smoke grenade
>>
>>573968283
Because presetcels would kill themselves if 20 presets per class would reset after every major update
>>
>>573968697
It increases all explosion radius'. Smoke grenade does not have an explosion. Krak and Shredder grenades do. Scum rocket launcher does. Even the crusher does.
>>
>>573968793
That fact that happens with updates and if you swap devices is omega retarded.

i used the ogryn single stubber for the first time and is this thing really unsatisfying to use or is it just me? it almost feels like the thing has a delay before beginning to fire on auto, and the firing sound is really lacking in oomph

It's a decent sniper if you need it. Don't expect too much

I still can't believe we don't have fifteen pistol+melee dualwield weapon types. Including the uhhhh power glove to use bigger weapons with single handed.

Go back to Rivals then.

I'm too stupid to play it

I love coming back to the game and finding that everything is fucking broken. Bursters running through full stam pushes, silent specials everywhere, dogs being immune to any form of stagger that would knock them out of their pounce. And now it's constantly stuttering for some fucking reason too. FUCKING SWEDES

It sucking buying a game you're too stupid to play and played it too long to get a refund lol. Literally a skill issue haha. Man I hope I die in my sleep soon lol

>have a match where all of my fucking damage taken can be directly tied to shitters mag dumping pox bursters and exploding inopportune barrels.
You know that big fucking favella wall in the hourglass? The fuckers just barrelled me from the very top to the very fucking bottom. The only reason that I didn't die from fall damage is because arbites has a fat HP pool. Barely survived the pile of ragers and reapers that were down there. Faggots had more ranged kills than melee but fuckall elite/special kills.
>>
>>573973615
Arbites also get true grit

Question for next bake so it's not a completely shitty last minute copypaste again:
1.11.6 is not a hotfix so I don't know why it's labeled like that, should that part have the latest actual patch (1.12.0) or latest hotfix?

Yes I know no one in this general knows nothing about anything and takes no responsibility about keeping their lovely shitpost tab alive. Complete anarchy. I'm really just asking out of courtesy.
I assume it's meant to have the latest RELEVANT patch and not trivial bug fixes, so I'm going to go with 1.12.0.

Kuli's guides is the only relevant link in that section anyway.

To add onto that the Necrons didn’t even face the Aeldari at their height of their power, that only came after the WiH was over.
>>573885553
Basically yes.
>>573885971
I wouldn’t say Quixos had a good plan but it is a good example of someone being fooled they can use Chaos for their own goals.

Good question. Probably nothing good for the person saying for it.
