Clubs, with their buff to the stagger on weak point slaps, can stagger monstrosities indefinitely if you time it correctly. I've been making Plague Ogryns look like absolute chumps. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6JX1zbV5BA&t=1s

DogsInSpace! posted:On good news: the heavy laspistol has become my weapon of choice for my zealot. Yeah it’s not super powerful but it’s accurate, no kick and tons of ammo. Since I’m using my eviscerator 99% of the time it’s perfect for those elites out of knife range and, best of all, I almost never need ammo. Will easily pop the odd sniper or flamer tho. Love this pistol as the revolver felt too easy and low ammo count meant I’m competing with the rest of the guys for ammunition. Now I just milk what I have and give the rest a knife or the Emperor’s redemptive saw. Really nice choice so thank you.

Rolled a pretty sick las pistol. What's the hotness on blessings? It's on my psyker, so I'm already getting lots of crits, so Infernus seems good.

I have the one that restores toughness on crit kills, seems like I get good value out of it. I think some people run Ghost also

The Demilich posted:And yet after a damnation match with 2300 killed I've only scored 150 ranged kills lol It counts kills by teammates who are in coherency with you, so that can be awkward for some groups. If a Veteran is in the back sniping dudes with a Helbore while you're diving into enemy shooters, you may be too far to share each others' kills.

For both of infantry lasguns and laspistol, I absolutely swear by Ghost. Turns a scattered room of 6 gunners, a reaper, and 15 traitor guardsman into a cakewalk, headclick one of them and casually proceed to steadily work your way through with headshots. You also can't get suppressed while safe from ghost.

I feel like a lot of the problems with keeping teammates in Coherency would be solved if we had some kind of visual cue for it, surprised there isn't a mod for that kind of thing actually

The worst thing about coherency is it can allow faster teammates to just let a slower one get loving melted the second a shiny object distracts them.

In the beta there was an icon next to the name of each teammate you were currently in coherency with. It was easier to read and I’m not sure why they changed it

My Autopistol rolled a tier IV Powderburn blessing, which seems really good on a bullet hose like this. What is a good blessing to pair with this? The other one is Speedload II which could really be better.

The other one is Speedload II which could really be better. Pinning Fire is the Autopistol's best blessing as it has such high stagger damage. It'll pretty much stack instantly against anything besides Ogryn, Bosses, Maulers and Mutants. Additionally, Combat Abilities that cause stagger/suppresion while the weapon is out can also contribute to the PF stacks. So Vet Shout, Vet Stealth, Psyker Shout, and Zealot charge.

There's also the buff number at the bottom as mentioned and that only goes 1-4 and doesn't say who so I like looking for the skulls better.

Las Pistol feels absolutely insane, but also less viscerally gratifying than the revolver. Being able to waste a shot on random walkers is great and you can cut down armored guys stupid quick, reload is lightning fast, but I don't know that anything can match a loud BANG and a disabler is gone in one hit.

Reiley posted:Is how far you slide affected by how fast you're running or is it a fixed distance? It feels like speed affects slide but it's hard to tell for sure in first person. It used to be affected by how fast you were running but they changed it to fixed distance to stop some people from doing some silly shenanigans. This ends up meaning it's a actually faster to slide when carrying an item when you're out of stamina though.

I've played for 140 hours and didn't know about the skull. It needs to be more visible, to the degree that you can't miss it. Coherence is a vital, necessary thing to understand and the UI does zero favors in emphasizing that, to the point where I get pugs in 4s who had no idea it was a mechanic outside of the class bonuses Yes, mods fix it, yes, the indicators exist on screen - none of it is sufficient for such an important, central mechanic

Is there something coherency gives you other than the class bonuses and any other talents that proc on coherency? I mean I know you don't get toughness regen as a baseline when you're not in coherency. But is there something else I'm missing?

Nope, just those three huge bonuses with a wide range of positive effects

I'm probably only imagining this but I feel like pox hounds or trappers have a greater chance of spawning in to specifically go after someone far off and not in coherency.

One thing that's not immediately apparent about the toughness regen is it scales with the number of folks in coherency so 4 people in coherency are regenerating twice as fast as 2 people so if you notice things breaking down when people split off into groups of 2+2 that's why

It explicitly happened as far back as Left 4 Dead. In the developer commentary they would talk about how the director would pop extra hunters and smokers when people were separate, and (iirc) more chargers and spitters and boomers when they were together. It would not surprise me at all if every horde shooter that came after adopted that technology.

When you carry people through High Intensity Damnation with 6 rescues from capture and 15 pickups, the game should force the rest of the group to acknowledge your carry. They should have to click a box. They should have to e-sign through Acrobat.

In terms of overall team healing, just one person leaving coherency reduces the regen by %44 (from 4x4 to 3x3 + 1x0).

A group of all psykers will just constantly smug back and forth to each other or over-praise each other… unless you have both a male and a female Loner voice psyker, in which case they will bicker like children.
