Is it possible to make a new character without having to do the prologue/tutorial? I want to try out the Zealot.

Right on. Loving this game so far, I'm only level 6, but it's bringing back positive memories of Payday 2 and Left 4 Dead. Loving the banter between various team members and the general over the top nature of the 40k universe. One question can all classes use all the melee weapons? I want to get a sword for my big dumb Ogryn.

Cease to Hope posted:Momentum (toughness on multiple melee hit) is very nice on the Bull Butcher. Confident Strike (toughness on chained hit) is imo comparable and I've seen it on the slab shield, the club, and the shovel, as well as the Bull Butcher. (The club also gets both Momentum and Confident Strike according to Darklantern.) I know both of these work from experience. I've had a bull cleaver with a +cleave and I can tell you it makes a pretty big difference, anecdotally it took me from multiple swings to just one to clear a line out of a horde. And that was just with a +100% cleave bonus, I just recently dropped a transcendent Bull Clear with the +300% cleave I haven't gotten to try yet.

Cease to Hope posted:Female Loner Psyker's entire personality is pointing out that the Imperium is evil and that yes we are the bad guys, lol Male Loner Psyker as well. I'm pretty sure the the gender doesn't change the script, though there are differences in the performance and the specific recordings of course.I think I prefer the male Loner voice though, hamming it up with that comical German accent is great, though the female version is good as well and sounds different enough to feel like a different character. The ones that really feels different to me is female vs male Agitator Zealot, the female VA for that really hams it up to a fantastic degree.

the loner psyker doesn't argue with the subtitles, he's realized what he said sounds like "four shortened lifespans" referring to the party dying soon and is trying to clarify that he meant "foreshortened lifespans" as in the hordes of enemies against them dying soon i don't know why people not getting the joke itches me as much as it does, but it does. it's like that simpsons thing where a ton of people claim that ralph saying "sleep? that's where i'm a viking" means he's good at sleeping Cowcaster fucked around with this message at 21:06 on Dec 5, 2022 |

I am going to say that in my opinion with the banter/voice acting the best combination really seems to be Agitator Zealot+Loner Psyker because they are basically diametrically opposed and seem to have a decent amount of dialogue that can trigger based off that. Also I like the performances. The veterans mostly haven't made much of an impression on me, except one guy's like a northerner and has some buddy talk with the Ogryn.

What are y'all doing with your extra weapons? Just selling them? Is it even worth it keeping them around until crafting is fully implemented?

Edmond Dantes posted:What are y'all doing with your extra weapons? Just selling them? Is it even worth it keeping them around until crafting is fully implemented? I'm holding on to them because I get the impression (based on the disabled option) we'll be able to disassemble them into crafting components, like in Vermintide. We'll probably need those crafting components more than the raw money once it's available.

You can sell grey ones but hold on to anything with a blessing (the big buff) because you will be able to transfer them to other items at some point in the distant future

I'm also saving the best-statted gray I find for each weapon, but I am precious about stuff like that. You probably don't need to bother.

Or just sell them, there are not that many blessings that you should hoard them, you get crafting materials while playing and that "coming soon" on the crafting buttons could be next week or in 3-4 months.

I found the most fatshark mechanic. If you have a high stamina weapon and run dry you can swap to your low stamina weapon and regenerate to 100% in a much shorter time then it would take to regenerate on the high stamina weapon.

I was going to make a post complaining about the grim/tome mechanic somehow being more aggravating and tedious than in VT2, but instead I'll just share that I now roleplay an Ogryn who can't read and only sometimes stumbles upon books.

Exodee posted:Hah that's interesting, my Zealot Judge has pretty much the opposite opinion on all of these - she calls highborns scum that take and don't give and has a bunch of lines about how the Empire can't function without its workers. All Judges are like that. The person you’re quoting used the Agitator voice set. Personality is entirely down to voice set.

They mention that the Emperor didn't want to be known as a god, but whether or not he IS one is kind of up for debate.

I dont really like grims and tomes in this game, but I can't say they were good in VT either. The way they functioned with upgrading the loot box you got at the mission meant that unless you were rolling with a premade that agreed not to get them it was basically mandatory to pick all of them up every single run. In well coordinated groups I'm sure that's fine, but it kind of killed the idea of just casually playing when most of the team is barely hanging on and yet they're still screaming for books. Especially when you are full  mode it was fairly common for you to get a group that did not have the equipment or skill to get through a map cleanly, and then you'd still have people insisting that they chop 2/3rds of their healthbar off because what was the point of running the level if you got a bad loot box as a reward?
