Throwing acid dual revolvers into a firebeam combos it into a tornado without needing a second spell, meaning that you can have two tornados up at the same time if you take fireball and bubble as well.

It's basically damnation except it's always high intensity and there's usually another modifier on top of that. And Maelstrom has its own set of extra modifiers as well, like extra barrels or reduced ability cooldown. If you can consistently clear shock trooper gauntlets on damnation, it might be a good idea to move to aurics.

That's more apt comparison between auric and havoc.

What's the argument between havoc and auric, is auric known for having kids with youtube builds falling apart just because they hit 30 and havoc is full of the best gamers ever or something?

We will get some party banter with the skitarii, probably. Although there isn't a lot for arbites and scum.

>>566635508
Would be cool to have the skitarii banter with each other in binaric if there's more than one in the party, and the regular characters complain about it. Probably too much voicework though

is it the EU hours again or does it feel like every crusher not spawning got replaced by 30x bombers and 30x gunners

>>566636161

>>566636161
I think it would be rough on the ears or not able to be heard over the fighting. But, you would just need to make string of beeps to do binaric cant. But if they do it wrong, it would be painful to hear.

>>566636181
Because it's swedes, I assume they lowered the max amount of crushers, but forgot to lover the overall max limit of "enemy units".
So, let's say, if each crusher took 5 "units", now these "units" are free, and AI director just fills them with other enemies like bombers. And because the bomber takes less, something like 2 "units", then 4 less crushers can lead to 20 more bombers.
Something like that, that's how shit works in Helldivers 2. nothing fucking works in helldivers

>>566629176
More spawns, higher breakpoints, but not devastatingly so. You just need to know how to create your own breathing room and not panic to do well.

No new ranged weapon for vet ever and more nerfs. Why does shitshark hate the most popular class?

>>566650794
Watch me.

>Error code: 2014

>>566650880
I just played a bunch of games as vet and it barely makes a difference. Most of your grenades come from demo team anyway.

>>566650880
>Why does shitshark hate the most overpowered class?
Because when the game came out and veteran was in the majority they had to acquiesce to their demands, beginning with the much deserved power sword nerf that got walked back eventually due to massive bitching. Now there's DLC classes, and they don't give a fuck anymore. Veteran doesn't need to be OP, they don't care if you complain, pay for power or get the fuck out.

>>566651252
>the most overpowered class
But that's melee scum, followed by a gap, and then psyker, followed by a MASSIVE gap before everything else.

>>566651252
they are only considered "overpowered" because the only difficulty in the game is dependent on how many armored enemies spawn. if anything blame the shitty armor system and how pathetically weak the majority of the arsenal of weapons are in this game. it's not that veteran is powerful, it's that everybody else is weak as fuck and not tooled properly against the bullshit of this game.

>>566650976

>>566651557

>>566651746
Knives, RPG (+1), any aura (usually ammo or crit), rampage with bellows, usually AF but sometimes dependency.
Crit node in the bottom left is important. Stamina curios. Backstab node makes your DPS retarded if you have a zealot lock down a boss with chorus.
>>566651686
Smokes are untouched and remain S-tier if you know how to use them

>>566651557
is that a typo? psyker is a one man genocide

>>566651989
You've clearly only played with memeshitter scum if you don't think the class to be stronger than psyker. Try one that isn't a worthless meme build and actually kills things.
Psyker is easier to achieve that performance with, of course, considering that many groups fail to compete even with memeshitter psyker builds that put brittleness on their staff because they don't know how crits work.

>>566651904
i've started to run smoke a lot lately. since youtubers decided to start saying bubble was ass and boring and not cool because apparently psyker needs another 200k damage per game on top of the 2.5 million he already gets

desu running smoke is actually more fun than just being another source of damage. the whole fun of playing vet is having to constantly micro to keep your team safe so whats about thing on the list you know.

>>566652351
>since youtubers decided to start saying bubble was ass
I don't follow youtubers and I always thought bubble was pretty bad at actually helping you win if you're good. It's extremely good at that with bad players, but you can easily filter those based on their build decisions. Even if that does cause the local autist to have a melty when you decline his super epic off-meta no-field-improv vet build
Bubble + smoke is surprisingly comfy because no projectiles are ever allowed to matter, but the damage output becomes pretty bad.
I do think shriek is much better than bubble, especially combined with smokes, although that also assumes having a brittleness spammer in zealot or ogryn.

There's a whole chain of assumptions one has to make before calling bubble bad, and honestly, most pubbies still haven't caught up and will never catch up. It's likely that same crowd who still thinks chorus zealot was bad (it never was).

I think some of you need to take another spin on Fatshark's Wild Ride, because you clearly learned nothing from the last fifty runs.

>>566644843
>Lines up with "Create your own Skitarii, choosing your own material types, augmentation schemes and the forge world from which your character came."
Wait a minute. Could this mean that skitarii appearance can change based on what we equip? Could that be possible?
Like you can specifically change out entire arms or legs or heads on the skitarii that we got to play as? And I mean this as in gameplay system for creating builds.

I bring this up since I remember one anon here in /coopg/ months ago after arbites released and before scum was revealed, talking about how Fatshark had supposedly experimented with equipment system like this, but for the Arbites DLC. Like you could've changed your arbites appearance based on equipment. Like imagine the Rebreather talent on arbites, when you select it, it visually gives your arbites a gasmask.t.
Could it be that the devs are repurposing this system?

>>566654656
They did do fancy things for arbitrator. Dog has its own cosmetic slot. I don't see why skittle shouldn't have an implants cosmetic slot.
You just won't have access to it unless you pig out $12 or whatever the premium version is.

Skitarii classes are going to be Ranger, Vanguard and Sicarian

>>566654851
Sure, but I'd be extremely surprised if it was individual arm and leg customization and not just "a handful of alternate cosmetic designs for all arms and legs," in the same way the dog only gets singular body and head slots and not more modular options.

>>566652734
my issue with shriek is that it just adds more damage to a class that already shits out endless and unparalleled damage. it doesnt offer any additional utility to the class or team.

some might say that bubble is a shitter crutch but where do you draw the line with that argument? are shout and chorus shitter crutches? is taunt? the amount of stability that bubble adds is much more valuable than some extra DoT. imo

of course the recent patch probably blows that argument up entirely. vet doesnt need kraks that badly now, and with increased gunner spawns smokes value is mooning

>>566655498
>it doesnt offer any additional utility to the class or team.
Shriek suppresses everything on your screen. It shuts down an entire gunner nest for a couple seconds. It also fully goes through walls and has fuckhuge range.
>where do you draw the line
At bubble exactly. It removes shooters as a mechanic, which no good player actually needs by the time they discover dodging and sliding. Every class can shit out more than enough toughness to get by with the brief milliseconds-long window of vulnerability between well-timed slides.
I feel like chorus and shout are in a pretty fair spot after the massive nerfs to cooldowns in general. Chorus used to be on that level of crutch when you could still CDR stack with a health build that just throws 3 choruses back to back. It no longer does that.

>>566655498
>my issue with shriek is that it just adds more damage to a class that already shits out endless and unparalleled damage
That's been my take on shriek on a flame staff psyker. Like it is obviously good, but you already kill everything on screen in like 4 seconds, does it really make much of a difference if you kill them in 3 seconds?

when is vermintide 3? clicking nurgle is getting boring and I want to click rats again.

>>566654763
That'd be neat.

>>566655993
>Shriek suppresses everything on your screen. It shuts down an entire gunner nest for a couple seconds.
Nta, but so does the rumbler, chorus, big box, fragbomb, boom bringer, stun grenades... The list goes on really.

>>566656067
But we also clicked Nurgle in Vermintide

>bubble shield
I actually like to run wall shield because it works as a hard counter against mutants and poxbursters, not just ranged enemies. And since you get 2, you can always keep one charge for when you really need it.

>>566656229
It does so with a fuckhuge range, and no positioning check or delay before it does the thing. You just REEE in the general direction and everything cowers. Don't underestimate a good shriek psyker using it defensively, it's actually pretty magical how nothing ever gets to shoot at you.

>>566655993
>It removes shooters as a mechanic, which no good player actually needs by the time they discover dodging and sliding.
Ahah yeah, who would ever get shot to death in this day and age? Certainly not me, never, nuh huh.

>>566656258
>I actually like to run wall shield
Wall shield is quite good, the biggest issue with it is the extremely buggy hit detection of a lot of effects, such as trapper nets or burgle vomit going through sometimes.
Yeah, hard countering mutants is fucking amazing and I always like having a wall psyker on the team.

>>566656487
I dunno what you're trying to imply, I run gunner resist because I'm not retarded, and I know how to slide spam to almost permanently stall out several reapers at once if need be. You're kinda outing yourself as a malicelet here if you think this is unrealistic for some reason.

>>566656249
yeah but it was primarily rats. we even got to click on agitated skeletons in the tower map.

>>566655993
as a vet main i find suppression really fucking annoying. just let me click heads please. outside of that extremely selfish nitpick, there's a million other abilities/weapons that can suppress or negate large groups of enemies that are already built into other classes and are meta for those classes. like >>566656229

desu i feel like shriek is just a selfish ability. the rest of the team literally dont care and dont notice that the psyker is clearing hordes a half second faster. when you need a bubble for extra staying power in melee or holding your ground vs a shit ton of gunners/snipers/reapers/flamers/bombers/burgles and you dont have it available no one is thinking "we'll least he gets an extra few stacks of soul blaze every 30 seconds, that shit is clutch"

>>566654656
>detailed customization
there will be like, at most, 3-4 options for each additional slot, one of them paid, one of the premium edition for the class, you will get to pick a series of preset metal colors, which color your oculi glow, and they will never add anything more than that afterwards

>>566656765
Shriek is anything but selfish. Getting faster or more stacks on a critical mass of enemies contributes more than bubble ever will. Most of havoc is a DPS check, if everything is dead, nothing can harm you. You want to actively avoid having 40 minute missions. Even 30 is kind of long, you should be hauling ass between map threshold boss spawns. Bubble is antithetical to hauling ass.

>>566656685
It's just a tongue in cheek post, anon. Izzat posting did irreparable damage to this general.

>>566656979
>Getting faster or more stacks on a critical mass of enemies
On the class that already does 6 gorillion damage in 1 mission alone even without Shriek.
It is a selfish ability.
>Most of havoc is a DPS check
And psyker alone already clears that check without shriek.
You can kill bosses in like 10-15 seconds now thanks to all the power creep, with minimal set up AND without skullcrusher. I play shield arbites and I deal with bosses by bringing bolter with cavalcade and puncture. I alone delete like 1/6 of the health bar in 1 magdump.

>>566656720
I always liked Into The Nest most because it's all rats.

>>566659160
this is it imo. shriek is a solution without a problem. the answer to a question no one is asking, except for the psyker that wants to stroke their own ego or blow up the scoreboard

>>566661372
>accept shriek psyker
>the psyker actually knows what he's doing
>accept bubble psyker
>he dies at least 3 completely preventable deaths
This is my average experience. Good bubble psykers obviously exist but too many of them just play the token build on the token class and get auto accepted and then carried, and they play like it.

>>566661372
everyhting that applies dots in this game needs to be target capped

you can't have
>horde game where numbers are meant to be scary
and
>infinite equal damage to an infinite amount of enemies so long as they're within range
in one game. it doesn't work, it kills the horde aspect. this is why we have cleave profiles and hitmass and all these thought out ideas, but then dots just get to ignore it ontop of being some of the highest singletarget individually too?
Fatshark is quite retarded for leaving dots in the state they're in for so long and even doubling down. they need to be affected by hitmass yesterday

I've definitely noticed a positive in ogryn's fence climbing ability, but I've still gotten stuck for a couple tries on some railings. It's MUCH better, but not perfect.

>>566662952
i think its just a particular issue with the flame staff. the zealot's flamer is well balanced by its ammo cap and slow speed. the flame staff is better than the flamer and has ZERO drawbacks

they need to increase peril generation or decrease cleave on the flame staff. the rest of the psyker weapons might as well not exist on havoc

>>566663312
dorktide is kinda fun, actually

>>566663941
while true i think it should still be target capped, just have better cleave to make up for the ammo usage. otherwise people will just start funnelling all ammo to the flamethrower zealot while swapping to las weps and achieve functionally the same shit
stuff like the needle pistol are also riding very closely behind the flame staff

>>566663312
the core gameplay of the tide games is enough to carry how fucking dogshit fatshark and their added on systems are.

>>566664381
hiver having one meta weapon that is miles above everything else in both slots is definitely a problem

ogryn has access to a larger pool of reasonable choices in both slots despite having access to about 8 weapons overall. at this point is not just a balance issue its a content issue

>>566664935
that would be a problem, except next class is coming out, so disregard old class and get excited for next class

>>566664381
the needle pistol wouldn't be such a problem if it weren't for all the ammo talents scum has access to
as it stands you can make a needle gun build with zero investment into ranged talents except for Pickpocket and still have an insanely powerful ranged build

>>566670906
pickpocket should be a subnode for desperado

so is shield of contempt good or should I just take good balance?

>>566671762
SoC is as good as your players are. If the entire team only ever takes health damage to major emergencies, it's incredible and can literally save lives. If your team consists of shitters who take constant poxwalker chip, it's useless because they keep putting it on cooldown at random.
Bring it to h40, consider skipping it in auric.

>>566663941
>the rest of the psyker weapons might as well not exist on havoc
This is wrong, Voidblast and EK staff are extremely havoc viable, and quite competitive with the inferno staff thanks to shriek. it's not merely the inferno staff that's at fault, the problem is infinite cleave dots. It simply outscales all other damage options into highly increased density like you have on havoc. Shriek, PC, and Warp Siphon are the big things that actually need major adjustments.

Man this game is falling apart at the fucken seams. I've had an influx of Tyranid snipers firing with no charge up and some of the worst warrior hit detection I've ever seen. Warrior will jump and his sword will go straight through me but ignore the parry and do no damage, but a Lictor will jump out from behind him getting parried right after but I get no gunstrike from it and end up in a losing position.

What's the best way to deal with rager packs if you aren't running BTL? Is it just block and dodge till you see an opening? Dropping a shock mine can take too much time.

>>566706075
Block push into attack, helps to have high attack speed so you can catch them before they exit stagger, alternate between the push attacks and light attacks to pick them off one by one. Biggest thing is putting yourself between the ragers and any other team members so they can do their part uninterrupted.

>>566707175
Can their swing combo be interrupted? When I try to push they sometimes just power though and continue their attacks.

>>566707846
You need pretty high Impact to do it, if you don't have it, you're better off dodging back out of reach or tanking the attacks with a block until the combo ends and you have an opening to stagger lock them with push attacks.

>>566708035
Is there a list of weapons than can do it? I assume the arbites shock maul would be able to but maybe not the maul and shield.

>>566708502
Both those weapons are capable, the rest of the impact you need comes from your build

>>566678402
VT2 also had lots of weird niche challenges like "kill 25 enemies by dropping a cannonball on their heads" or "find all the hidden bottles of vintage wine" for people who still wanted some kind of achievements to work for. They didn't give you any fancy rewards, but even just something like getting a picture frame for completing all the challenges in a specific level was still a nice bonus. Darktide has what, a handful of penances like that for the entire game?

>>566706075
>What's the best way to deal with rager packs if you aren't running BTL?
Just shoot them? Or use the maul&shield and flashbang them.

>>566696881
they need to delete missile terminators from the game until they find a dev that doesn't have his head all the way up his own asshole to redesign them

>>566706075
dodge backwards once or twice and they will enter their long attack animations that will completely miss. Use this opening to land big staggering attacks. Also if you have ammo to spare just blast them.

>>566708502
>Is there a list of weapons than can do it?
It depends. Stagger is decided by the Impact stat, and Impact is affected by the Strength stat. Different weapons have different starting points, but then your build and current buffs also affect it. Blessings also play a role here.
Blunt weapons usually start off with higher impact stats. If you feel like the weapon struggles to stagger, look for strength and impact blessings/talents and see if it helps.

>have a perfectly good, fully levelled bolter on my Veteran
>can't transfer it to my Arbitrator, have to find another one with the right stat spread and spend materials on getting it to 500 power
Justify this.

>>566710118
They need to copy Darktide and make it so enemies are forced to engage you in melee if you close the gap. None of this retarded backpedalling while shotgunning you with a devourer or launching a missile barrage on themselves.

Just play the game some more, I got a full set of 420 curios for all six of my operatives in under 500 hours. It really doesn't take long.

>>566710941
>Justify this.
It's basically due to the game's development legacy.
Same thing about not being able to switch character while in a lobby. It is the way it is because this is how the backend is designed, and the backend was designed for a different Darktide game that had more story and roleplay elements.

Now I had a Carnifex moonwalk out of my auspex whilst knocked out against a wall???????? THIS GAME.

>>566710941
Your arbitrator has never even met your vet

There's so many more specialists now. Something like getting 6 trappers in a single room used to be super rare, now it seems it can happen several times in one match.

>>566715295
the number of crushers was lowered, the budget wasn't
all the budget that was drained by crushers is now funneled into cheaper specialists, enjoy

>>566715295
>now it seems it can happen several times in one match.
It does if no one is killing the specialists fast enough

>>566715857
wha

>>566715968
Every unit has an arbitrary ticket cost.
Let's say the director has a pool of 60 tickets to spend
Crushers are 10 tickets each, it spawns 5 and then fills the rest with trappers.
Let's say it can only spawn 2 crushers now because the devs said so
That's 40 tickets worth of trappers now coming for your ass.

>>566715968
Nta but I think I'm pretty sure he means the following. Imagine you are allowed to field 1000 units worth of elite stuff on map at any point. Crushers are 50 a pop. So you used to have like 10 crushers and the remaining 500 points would go into ragers etc. Now that crushers show up less (only 5 instead of 10) you now have an extra 250 points worth of shit to spend your points on. So now we get more trappers, more pox bombers and more aids. I'm suprised nobody picked up on this potentially being an issue.

>>566694761
What are they even complaining about? Placebo? Their still-top-tier-btw weapon now asking you to light attack a crusher twice before stabbing it in the face? Actually getting a buff in terms of team-wide boss DPS?
Why knife nerfs? The thing is good but do these sub-humans actually think it's top-tier meta or something? It's good, but it always plays second fiddle to some class exclusive weapon by a pretty big margin.

>>566716405

>>566716631
I don't think they considered it an issue at all, even knowing about it. They must assume the playerbase would just adapt and actually shoot specials now that they don't have to worry about CRUSHERS, but the average player is a shit.

>>566716749
It has behaved in a similar way before, where it would sometimes spawn 4+ trappers at the same time, with 6+ trappers on the same screen at any one time. It was just much less likely to happen unless you were specifically on a low armor high density seed. Now it seems to happen regularly enough that I had two of those occurrences just yesterday.

I can't really complain, crusher spam is a boring DPS check, having actual enemy variety come from different angles is more entertaining.

The weirdest thing that happened was when I went REALLY fast through the level with a buddy, and the pubbies mysteriously kept up. We spent an entire stretch of 3 large rooms encountering not a single enemy because we just kept sprinting through the level and leaving most of the ranged fodder alive. This presumably filled the ticket count in an already low density ranged-heavy seed and the director just ran out of budget to spawn shit. I've only seen this happen while going fast in havoc before. First time I've seen it in auric now.

>>566717064

if smite from different sources stacks that's gotta be ridiculously overpowered

>>566722345
It theoretically is ridiculously overpowered anyway because smite naturally wants scrier's, which naturally builds into both greatsword and leftclick staff, which is 2-3 great builds in one, assuming you respect smite as actually good, if boring.

>>566720493
Hehehe actually here in Germany...

That's his point.
Same as it as it ever was.

>>566722502
smite actually takes skill to use, unlike inferno staff
it's powerful, but not overpowered
if it stacks with other psykers though, it will delete hordes in seconds

>>566722502
The main issue with smite is that it's basically "here's a puse button for the game and the psyker can realistically spam it infinetly."
I think it'd been more interesting and fun as an ability if Smite, instead of being Palpatine LARP, actually allowed you to Smite people.
Like imagine a fuck huge lightning bolt made from warp energy from the sky that works like the ogryn nuke and it electrofies the ground in a 10m radius for 10 seconds.

That'd be fucking fun.

>>566722502
>builds into greatsword
what even is there to "build" with force greatsword other than just "taking it"

>>566725140
Finesse, crit, weakspot damage, Malefic Momentum, Disrupt Destiny, building around being able to keep Scrier's Gaze active rather than immediately overloading on purpose, Disrupt Destiny
The difference between just taking it, and building around it, is how quickly you eradicate bosses, and whether you qualify for one-shots on crushers (I think the push attack can do it with buffs up?)

>>566725387
Neither of these except for scriers work with smite

>>566725602
Sure, and smite doesn't need a build beyond taking 3 points EP. Not taking ED is a damage loss but it won't ruin your build. At that point it's just a generic sword/staff scrier's build that just happens to take EP smite. It's good.

>>566725737
>Not taking ED
DD* (Disrupt Destiny) whoops.
Anyway yes Empowered Psionics is good.

>>566725836
i don't like EP cause i want to use it with brain burst and am annoyed that i can't gain an EP stack on special kill

>>566726187
It's still good with BB, you just need to also take every node of warp damage that you can, including the +10% ranged damage in the bottom left. Bonus points for double wall to supercharge Kinetic Resonance.
You can pop an entire gangrape of ragers within a second or two thanks to EP. Fully juiced + blue stimm, you even start melting bosses, it's pretty funny.

You know people itt are just posing about being h40 lords because I've not seen a single complaint about the 8 consecutive weeks of blight spreads in here yet

>>566711042
>>566711535
You shouldn't have to spend the extra time and materials on something you've already done no matter how negligible you may believe it is. There's no reason to force the player to go through the tedious process of finding a weapon with a good stat distribution and upgrading it to 500 for a second, third, or fourth time. It's not like it serves the gameplay purpose that levelling another class does, where getting drip-fed talent points forces you to gradually learn what the class is capable of in a way that feels organic and doesn't cost anything but time. Having to upgrade an identical weapon all over again on another character only acts as an arbitrary barrier to playing the game how you want to play it, and that's on top of the fact that the class will have unique equipment that you've never used before that will also need to be upgraded.
>>566712294 is probably right in that the way the game is structured under the hood makes something like a Diablo-styled shared stash impossible, or at the very least it'd take far too much effort for such a relatively minor feature when most players are used to the way the game works now anyway.
>>566713584
Then why do they pool their currency and resources into the same stash that they both draw from? Why do any of our characters do that if they've never met?

>>566726368
I'm not some gay delusional faggot who thinks zealot is dogshit for some arbitrary reason, so it doesn't affect me because I always bring a purity zealot regardless of blight. Blight is a welcome modifier, it's probably the easiest one overall.

I mean, even accounting for you building for Smite of all fucking things, you have basically no backup for when you actually have to kill anything yourself. Your greatsword has no cleave and no extra attack speed. A pack of ragers will evaporate you instantly and I'm sure as shit not gonna be the guy picking your ass up. I guess it's alright if you just want to smig around.

what part of "not a melee build" do you not understand?

>>566729743
I understand it's a smigger build, and that's the problem, you have nothing except smigging, you're worthless when you can't smig because you're facing gunners beyond smigging range, or a pack of ragers rushing you down before you can smig all over them. A good smigger build (heh) sacrifices some smigging for melee or ranged capacity to recover toughness when suffering chip damage or just protecting yourself in general. If I really wanted to shit on you for making an unironic smigger build, I would have just posted DECLINED.

So... The game is dead huh? What do you think went wrong with KF3? I for one, I just noticed it's DoA when I saw the trailers. Their reaction to criticism, staff talking from an upper tone on the forums as if they're superior, just sealed the envelope for me. I have never seen a team of developers that is willingly deaf to criticism.
The state of their moderation team trying to gaslight people and banning anyone who talk bad about the game is a reminiscence that their mentality never went away.

I'm happy that I didn't spend any dime and my time on it. What's your dead giveaways or experience with the game?

>>566732270
Yes unironically to the greentext.
AIDS puddles never become a problem if you kill fast enough and remember to bring 1-2 health curios with corruption resist on the squishy classes, and if they annoy you, you bring a purity zealot. That is the only concession you have to make. In return, you get runs with effectively -1 modifier.
I barely notice the puddles anymore because I'm not fucking retarded and actually bring builds that work around the modifier.
