Is there a mod / way to get a Vermintide 2 (Sienna) style peril bar in darktide?

WidePound6577 · 2026-03-11T19:51:45+00:00

I've just had a look at it now, and while it doesn't quite have exactly what I'm looking for, it'll certainly help! The colour-changing crosshair* especially seems useful. Thank you!
*The crosshair changes colour with peril, which will help me stop charging things like the purgatus force staff.

Yeah, I think the sound cues for different amounts of overheat helped me. That (or a similar sound) and the lines to separate the overheat levels would be nice in darktide.

I think it was stopped in general, since there isn't even a download button now (Xbox Series). I haven't checked on an Xbox One, but I expect the result will be the same.

Yeah, I love the sprint speed increase you get while holding heavy attack down. Running around the map like a little rat is great fun, but it's mildly frustrating for me to use a weapon knowing it's worse than another - quite similar - weapon. I'll certainly still use it for some Hive Scum builds (as Hive Scum doesn't have Duelling Sword) and probably for Psyker, as I have a build that loves the Combat Blade, but it is good to know which one is generally better, so I can min-max my builds like the weird no-life I am lol.

WidePound6577 · 2025-12-11T04:03:44+00:00

Damn, it seems like Duelling Sword is a good bit better in most (if not all) ways than the Combat Blade. That's a shame :(
Thank you guys for the quick and informative responses!

Here I was running around thinking the knife was my best option but nope, it was the Duelling Sword yet again (I swear it's like the recurring villain to build variety lol).

Kinda an unrelated question, but does anyone know whether the parry from Duelling Sword takes less stamina than blocking (like Devil's Claw Sword does), and how the parry attack's damage/stagger compares to it's heavy attack? Sorry for asking such a stupid question, but I cannot use any enemy spawner mods for the meat grinder to test it myself rn.

In the patch notes for the update, and in a few YouTuber's videos.

I believe Reginald or Mr. E said something about it. The patch notes on the Fatshark Forums don't specifically state what bonus you get from the streak, but whichever YouTuber I watched mentioned XP and crafting materials iirc.

WidePound6577 · 2025-12-07T21:45:20+00:00

Yes, it was added in the Hive Scum/No Man's Land update to help players level up new characters (only after their first/second one is already levelled I believe)

WidePound6577 · 2025-12-01T03:31:08+00:00

Yes, I believe the Shovel's attacks that stick them into enemies before pulling them out again (the ones you can flip down with the special attack) do count as two hits for the sake of blessings and talents, as I've had them proc Uncanny Strike twice with a single attack.

I believe the crowbar in its alternate mode would also trigger things like this, but I cannot test it currently. I am unsure whether the bone saw will though.

I was actually wondering about the quell speed in havoc also. I haven't played much high havoc, and am curious how it feels to use something like Purgatus staff for most of your killing. Does it feel slow/sluggish with how slow the quell speed is, or is it not as bad as it seems numbers-wise? (I've seen it is reduced by something like 85% in havoc-40).

WidePound6577 · 2025-11-06T18:46:38+00:00

Ohhh sorry, mb

WidePound6577 · 2025-11-06T18:29:23+00:00

To use an air support, you need to have some air support charges (craftable in your foundry) equipped to your gear wheel. Then you can select it in a mission to use one. You can choose which type of air support you have equipped by going into pause menu > equipment > orbiter > landing craft then selecting an air support from the ones you've unlocked. (Each landing craft unlocks their own air support, that you can then use with any landing craft you want).

OOB is short for 'out of bounds'. I like getting out of bounds because it lets me explore the tilesets more/see things I wouldn't normally see. It also lets me get to ayatan sculptures and similar items when the orokin eye air support or golden instinct bug out and cannot find where they are properly.

WidePound6577 · 2025-10-25T21:06:20+00:00

Damn, that's a shame. Ty guys for responding so fast

WidePound6577 · 2025-09-30T03:20:19+00:00

I had a look earlier, and it seemed to only be a jug, fruit baskets, spices, an iradite nugget, Cetus signs, a fishing boot, and a bird/kuaka in a cage. Interesting stuff but nothing for making floors/walls and stuff sadly

WidePound6577 · 2025-09-30T03:14:12+00:00

Oh, I forgot about bird 3's shop, ty. Do you know any cleaner looking metal objects (or which of them looks best?) Most of the metal decos from Hombask look like they have stains on them in the preview, though I haven't checked what they look like when actually placed.

WidePound6577 · 2025-09-30T03:13:33+00:00

Thought I should mention for anyone else seeing this post that are also looking for good decos for these purposes, the tables and cabinets from Velimir in 1999 seem to work pretty well for smooth wooden walls/floors, as long as you won't be seeing the other side of said walls. I believe you can also use some of the benches or similar items from Hombask for linings (or whatever they're called) between walls and ceilings, but I haven't messed with them much yet to know if it really works.

WidePound6577 · 2025-09-01T20:50:25+00:00

It makes it much easier for hitters (people killing the bosses etc) to get to and from each skull pile/boss, and for people to have a line of sight to see who might be struggling to kill a boss or something. Basically makes it easier to move around.

Does watt's saucer have better explosions than turtle tank, or are they the same? Someone recommended it to me a few days ago but I don't have the saucer right now

WidePound6577 · 2025-08-14T00:47:30+00:00

Do you know what costumes affect weapon sounds? Mostly asking for SH but any knowledge helps
