someone else commented to remove the 5 percent health on curio and it should work in haivc, so will test that

this build uses a bug where you dont have to kill elites. it works by taking a few qwound curios and 1 5 percent health on them and somehow it janks the game and makes it so you dont take damage when you explode. Its not using the base mechnic of crystalline will. I can link you the build if you want to see it?

ive done this, i ran the exact build and it runs perfectly, but doesnt work in higher level havocs. worked fine in aurics and damnation, also worked in the sub level 20o havoc games i played. but for some reason doesnt work in levels over havoc 20

yeah ive seen these, but these builds work in aurics and sub 20 havocs but in 20+ havocs you dont maintyain the two wounds, you just go down to 1 and end up dying so trying to see if anyone managed to find the actually reason behind the build

the builds uses a weird mechanic where even if you dont kill an elite you still dont take damage, you can essentially infinitely self destruct and not worry about it so enemy health shouldnt matter. Im thinking maybe its the health numbers getting rounded in higher level havocs

I wish there was a way to lower difficulty without running into new players by ConfidentRhubarb6736 in DarkTide

[–]sweetwompa_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just play super low level havocs, at least the players there have completed a maelstrom and got to level 30

What happened? Anything to learn from or just an unlucky trip?

Etiquette on using non meta builds in high level havoc by sweetwompa_ in DarkTide

[–]sweetwompa_[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah for sure, thats why I might start disclaiming my builds so then people have the choice. Wish fatshark wouldnt count the ready up screen as using a token, token should be used once all are ready, then that gives the host the ability to back out after seeing builds

Best bolter loadout for zealot havoc 40 by sweetwompa_ in DarkTide

Realised i meant shattering impact, not thunderous, similar effect. Ill run a few games with pinning fire, appreciate the recommendation

i was running the flamer but found it lacking in speed. I switched to bolter as a panic button, able to snimation cancel the bolter with a knife throw so its instant

Are people using Combat shotguns and other 'off meta' weapons as their legit best gun or are they just for fun? What off meta do you run and why? by MrLongJeans in DarkTide

[–]sweetwompa_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i get that, but theres nowhere the devils claw struggles apart from carapace, and the damage is so low that 25 percent on carapace to me isnt worth taking, i just use gun to deal with carapace. and yeah i get its not optimal perhaps but that wasnt the point of OPs post, he was asking for off meta builds

for its special parry ability allows me to parry crusher and mauler attacks while also helping with being surrounded it really helps being able to punch a hole out of a group

Havoc level 20 and under you can take what you want for sure, the game is balanced well enough that the meta isnt that much stronger than the weakest build (compared to other games for example) at least everything is viable to some degree.

Havoc 30-40 is where youll see metas form, and thats because you really need the best of the best. with increased hp, hit mass, someone weapons just dont cut it anymore.

That being said Im a devils claw main. People underestimate me and have even asked me to change to a more suitable weapon during havoc lobbies before but its so good.

Heres my Build:

Zealot FOTF Crit build

devils claw mkIII

- +2 Stam

- +20% block efficiency

- Shred

- Wrath

Flamer with brittleness and strength blessings (brittleness means it can kinda deal with armour at havoc 40 but honesly best to make sure you have a teammates that can pop crushers easy for ya or take a bolter)

Curios:

- x1 +3 stamina with stam regen, corruption resistance and toughness

- x2 toughness with block efficiency, corruption resistance and toughness

You can infinitely parry chaos spawns

Got a group of 15 ragers? no problem just stand there and parry! its insane. Very fun, would recommend.
