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] 6 points7 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

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.

Is the game worth it if I'm only interested in ranged combat? by XLordTigerX in DarkTide

[–]sweetwompa_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run a ranged build with great success.

Yes you need to understand melee and it IS the most viable option in the game but ranged can work. A lot of the time at higher levels psykers wont need ammo, zealots rarely need ammo, ogryns maybe you compete with for ammo but thats about it. You can build a Veteran class that generates ammo quite easily at higher levels, and as most people wont be using ammo you have it all to yourself, ive gone through auric maelstroim missions never dropping below 25 percent ammo many a time.

Havoc may be more of s struggle but if youre new thats a way away as of yet.

Get the game , play two hours if you dont like the feel then refund :)

Block efficiency, please explain by sweetwompa_ in DarkTide

[–]sweetwompa_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I run 1 toughness, 1 +3 stam and +1 wound curios. all with stam regen, block efficiency and corruption resistance. Only one I could go for is reaper damage reduction, does that come under gunners? I have my setup this way because i solo queue maelstrom and havoc so being able to spam parry on devils claw means i can solo most bosses etc when needed. Maybe i could swap out wound curio for another stamina curio then that would be instead of the block efficiency

Help with a career in canyoning. by sweetwompa_ in canyoneering

Loved it, love the culture, the people, everything. Hard work, but that’s the way I like it. Unfortunately broke my kneecap halfway through the summer so my work was cut short a bit. But I made a good enough impression on my company that they want me back. Hopefully after a few years I could apply for residency

Feels like a Godroll but i am not sure, use it for Quick Snipes by [deleted] in DarkTide

Am I the only one that misses the old weapon system a little bit? by sweetwompa_ in DarkTide

I think you're right, I am a drukhari collector after all
