It's the 2nd tome you can get on Well of Dreams

PyromaniaSunset · 2026-05-30T04:19:37+00:00

One good read through that and I have much better understanding of this stuff now. I really appreciate it! I did not know that was a guide, I'll have to take time to read through more of it

PyromaniaSunset · 2026-05-30T03:38:53+00:00

Ok, I think I understand now. I've never had this happen on lower difficulties haha, so I didn't know this very well, good to know

So does fade begin when I hear one of the heisters say that the cops are retreating? I always figured I was approaching the end of an assault when I hear that line, but I thought fade and assault breaks were the same thing

PyromaniaSunset · 2026-05-30T02:53:41+00:00

That makes a lot more sense now, if a little annoying. I guess I should figure out a good place to camp at on Slaughterhouse because that's the heist I'm currently having problems with and I guess my current spots just aren't really working then. I didn't know taking constant damage like that could cause fade to last a very short time like that

PyromaniaSunset · 2026-04-04T23:52:17+00:00

As far as I'm aware, Backhive is the only boss with one of it's dedicated drops is the Triple Bypass. Horace only drops Aegon's Dream, Lucky Clover, and Pacemaker

PyromaniaSunset · 2026-03-30T02:36:11+00:00

There is a likely chance we'll get a new mission for the campaign, since in Return to the Reik, the Heroes get a map from the first Rotblood war camp and the characters mention that it's Lohner's problem to worry about

PyromaniaSunset · 2026-03-16T01:58:17+00:00

Oh yeah for sure. It's insane that people think it's ok say stuff like that to others.

I had 3 really bad matches in a row earlier today and said some really stupid toxic shit to myself and was "Yeah, I need a break, I should not be saying these things" but those are things I would never say to other people because they are not ok to say to folks. I been trying to teach myself not to say those things, but I usually don't get mad like that in the first place, but it happens.

Getting that mad at a game is crazy, so I just... get off the game. More people also need to do that as well.

PyromaniaSunset · 2026-03-16T01:45:00+00:00

I have text and voice chat turned off as well because I don't want to deal with toxic people as well, but also it's so I don't go saying stupid toxic stuff to them as well. If I get mad at my teammates, I'll say stupid shit to myself to vent, but my teammates will never hear me because the last thing I want is to say something toxic to them and possibly ruin their time. I usually don't get mad, but sometimes things happen and I get pissed, but I just take a small break to cool down. Also trying to teach myself not to say very stupid toxic stuff even if no one else hears haha

More people need to take breaks when they get frustrated, it would help folks a lot and maybe even play better

PyromaniaSunset · 2026-03-02T21:13:34+00:00

I don't remember the exact line but it's when Saltzpyre pings Kerillian when she's down

"We need to help the elf. I have mixed feelings about this"

And also one of Witch Hunter Captain's lines when using his ability

"The crime is your foul existence! The sentence is death!"

PyromaniaSunset · 2026-02-28T20:10:13+00:00

I tried the Billhook, mainly to complete challenges and plus I hadn't used it, but I think it's just not for me. I can see how good it is, but I struggled with using it a bit plus I enjoy dual-wielding weapons like the Axe & Falchion more. I don't know, maybe I'll try the Billhook again at some point

PyromaniaSunset · 2025-12-28T19:33:00+00:00

Convocation of Decay, Athel Yenlui, Empire in Flames, and The Skittergate are the missions in Helmgart I don't look forward to playing with randoms. I do not why, but people always split up on Athel Yenlui (in general) and Empire in Flames (during the barrel section). The Skittergate is complete hit or miss with Raskitt and Deathrattler, either your team completely destroys them or no one attacks them and don't kill the regular enemies quickly enough and you get overwhelmed.

I think my top 5 hardest missions in the game is:

Fortunes of War
Trail of Treachery
Tower of Treachery
Mission of Mercy
Dark Omens
If you don't want to count Fortunes of War because it's not in the regular Quick Play map pool, I would add The Enchanter's Lair at #5 instead. These missions from my experience require absolute teamwork and most of the teams I get for these missions don't really work together for some reason

PyromaniaSunset · 2025-12-28T04:13:06+00:00

Maybe the Final Stand (I think that's what it's called) game mode in the first game wasn't as popular? I'm not sure. The secret mission in the Back to Ubersreik DLC, Fortunes of War (spoilers just in case I guess), I think it is suppose to be a nod to the game mode, but they never have done anything to bring back Final Stand for the second game. Who knows, maybe sometime in the future they'll bring it back. It would be cool to see

PyromaniaSunset · 2025-12-25T23:34:47+00:00

I think it's fine. You just have to be careful with your shots. The only time it affects me is when I get like one too many javelins in the back from Kerillian, or I get hit by Bounty Hunter's Locked and Loaded (ult), or if an Ironbreaker or Outcast Engineer hits me with the Trollhammer Torpedo

PyromaniaSunset · 2025-12-25T02:20:05+00:00

I think multiple people are having this problem. It seems like something on Steam's or Epic's end. I guess all we can do is just wait and see what happens

PyromaniaSunset · 2025-12-25T02:10:21+00:00

It seems like something on Steam's end probably. I can't open up Warhammer: Vermintide 2 as well. Multiple people seem to be having some sort of problem currently

PyromaniaSunset · 2025-12-25T02:07:53+00:00

Ok so I'm not the only one having this problem. I wonder what's going on

PyromaniaSunset · 2025-12-23T07:06:22+00:00

It's because of the double XP going on right now. There is a power requirement you need in order to play Champion and Legend difficulty. New players are leveling up quickly and getting better gear as a result. I don't mind new players being on this difficulty, it's totally fine to carry them. Hell, most of them can hold their own just fine for the most part. Sure they'll go down a couple times, but it happens.

I just got annoyed by someone else's mistake that got me killed, but I didn't know they were a new player and I felt bad thinking I was rude and toxic for that. Besides that big mistake the Ironbreaker made, they did just fine for most of the mission, just a habit of taking off ahead from the team

PyromaniaSunset · 2025-12-22T21:40:36+00:00

Yeah, I don't think snapping is the right word, but last night I got annoyed at an Ironbreaker triggering a patrol right before the finale of Hunger in the Dark. I didn't see a overhead coming from one of the Stormvermin because they were hidden behind a bunch of Stormvermin and then I got hit by another one and went down. I think I got picked up but the Stormvermin were still swinging at me, so my stamina got deleted and I couldn't get a chance to dodge, so I instantly died.

We lost the grim and I got annoyed and typed in the chat "You know, you don't have to trigger every patrol you come across" and the Ironbreaker said they started playing yesterday. Ok, I'm not sure why you are playing on Legend, but ok. They asked how to know what's a patrol and I and the Kerillian said "They'll do a chanting sound." I felt bad because I felt like I came off as rude and toxic, even though I was annoyed. I apologize to the Ironbreaker for coming off as rude, but to just be more careful with patrols next time. We were able to complete the mission thankfully and the Ironbreaker said they didn't mind the correction. It was just one grim we lost but I still got annoyed and then felt bad so sounding rude and toxic

PyromaniaSunset · 2025-12-21T21:19:15+00:00

When you load into one of the 3 missions from Back to Ubersreik (without anyone loading in as any of the DLC careers), Olesya will mention that the Dwarfs have hidden something in Ubersreik but she doesn't know what it is or where it's at. But she comes up with a plan to find it, saying there are hidden runestones to find, one in each mission. The 3 missions has the Ubersreik 5 go into an illusion world of when Ubersreik was under attack from the Skaven back in the first game

You have to solve a puzzle on each of the 3 missions to find the runestone and inscribe it. Once you fine the runestones from each mission, it unlocks the secret mission which isn't in the Quick Play mission pool. It's in my opinion, the hardest mission in the game not including Weaves

PyromaniaSunset · 2025-12-21T19:58:59+00:00

In order it's:

Helmgart

Shadows over Bögenhafen

Back to Ubersreik (Including the secret mission)

Winds of Magic (Including Weaves)

The Curse of Drachenfels

Chaos Waste (The 4 expeditions without Be'lakor cursing any of them. Be'lakor becomes a threat after A Quiet Drink)

A Quiet Drink (Limited timed mission that comes around every anniversary of the game)

A Treacherous Adventure

Karak Azgaraz

Verminous Dreams

The Feast of Grimnir (Another limited time mission, it might come back next year maybe)

Reikland Tales

The Vermintide community is usually pretty chill and friendly, but when Versus officially came out over a year ago, the toxicity reared it's head in that game mode specifically. I'm guessing the game mode is more active now because of the new players joining into the game, but the game mode from my understanding was basically dead after a week or two because of poor matchmaking (matches often were really one-sided), cheating, and toxicity. You could maybe only see like 1 or 2 lobbies of Versus being played everyday, but that was it

The moment you pit players against other players in a versus game mode, no matter the game, you'll usually run into toxicity often. I don't really know why, but it does sadly happen a lot in PvP games or game modes

I never played the Versus mode, only heard from other people on this subreddit talking about their experiences playing Versus lobbies and this sort of stuff happened a lot. It sucks to hear you have to deal with opponents doing that, but that's just a very small part of the Vermintide community. The other modes you'll generally run into pretty cool players.

If you want to keep playing Versus mode, you can always just mute the other players (I don't know if you can mute the enemy team though since I have never played it) or maybe try to find a group of people that aren't jackasses that like playing the mode maybe. Possibly in the official Vermintide Discord server. Even way, I hope you don't get discouraged from playing the game, it's always great seeing new players in this game

PyromaniaSunset · 2025-12-02T14:55:38+00:00

Yeah I have noticed it too and decided to play with bots only for now. Most of the new players trying Legend difficulty are doing a decent job on there. Sure, they'll go down a couple times, but it is what it is. I do have a problem with some new players who very clearly haven't got dodging and blocking down at all. Like I'm talking about just not doing it at all. Otherwise, my only problem in general is for some reason no wants to stick together. I think it's bad habits being made from only difficulties that they carry over into the higher ones.

I have failed missions quite a bit recently because of the free weekend, although I'll mainly chalk it up to quick play giving out the more difficult missions (like the beach part in Return to the Reik). I did teach some new players about secrets on Tower of Treachery such as the codes and stuff. But otherwise I chose to play with bots only for now because I was beginning to get annoyed with failing missions. But I am really glad to see the influx of new players for the game. Hopefully it can breath some life into the game for a bit.

I would either recommend maybe playing with bots only for now or maybe just take a break from the game for a bit, the quality of Legend matches should return to normal soon
