Vortex says I have four active mods (the ones scoreboard asked me to get and scoreboard) but the scoreboard isn't showing up. Is there something basic I've missed here? I never mod games so idk if I've make an error or missing something obvious.

I downloaded them all through vortex and the mod folder appears to have the files in it.

Are you loading the animation events before the scoreboard?

If you would be so kind as to let me know what talents you are running to do the penance. I looked just now and that penance + the one that requires it to be done are the only Ogryn ones I have left to do.

Until they fix the penance exactly what I said, you can’t pick a grenade modifier (Big Friendly Rock, Bombs Away, or Ogryn Frag) since that makes your grenade not Big Box of Hurt. Which means you can’t pick any abilities below that. Which means you can only pick the 9 abilities that are above the grenades.

Something I find hilarious. The Ogryn cluster grenade (or box of grenades I don't have an ogryn operative yet) is so chaotic that it's the only thing that manages to stutter my game even when all other settings are ultra smooth.

I've not used Vortex, but when manually downloading mods, the Darktide Mod Freamwork includes a batchfile ( called toggle_darktide_mods.bat in the Darktide base folder ) that you need to run before mods will work, and you'll need to run it every time they do an update or hotfix hereafter. Then in the blahblah\Warhammer 40000 Darktide\Mods folder there's a text document called mod_load_order.txt , you need to make sure there's a line that says scoreboard. At a guess Vortex will download the mods and manage them as they're updated but not necessarily do the final steps required to get the mods to run.

I asked Hadron for some advice, and she told me to tell you the following:

Step 1) When you load into the game, select your ogryn character. I imagine you do can do this by mashing your face on the keyboard until it works.

Step 2) when your ogryn character - most likely the biggest character you have - has loaded into to the big metal bird -also known as the morning star, press the "I" key to bring up your characters inventory. (as an aside, Hadron assumes you are playing on PC, and have a functioning keyboard, apologies if this isn't the case)

Step 3) from there, varlet, click on the TALENTS bar at the top of the screen slightly to the right of centre. This will bring up your talent tree. You know what a talent tree is, don't you?

Step 4) press the "E" key or click on the bottom right to reset all your spent talent points. (Editors note: you might wish to write down your current build so you don't forget it afterwards, or use an unused build slot for the penance...you know what, never mind). This will refund all your spent talent points, you will know that this is successful as all of the various nodes will no longer be highlighted.

Step 5) (optional) spend nine (9) talent points in all of the circles BEFORE the green boxes. Do not, I repeat, DO NOT click on the squares that contain the colour green and pictures or either a rock, a box, or a large circle called frag Grenade.

Step 6) begin the penance, may the Omnissiah guide your boxes straight and true. Repeatedly.

Step 7) remember to breathe.

Uh, that's what I've been told to pass along. I hope that makes sense.

Bought the game this week on sale, got my zealot up to level 26. It's been rough going. Heresy is kinda hard, but i keep wiping even on uprising maelstrom missions. Tough going. I'm doing martydom and trying to be as tanky as possible. i'm not good enough to carry my team mates. Fun game though. Fun game.

My Zealot is almost entirely down the left hand skill tree. Prior to the patch it was an absolute rampager but post patch I'm definitely feeling fragile. I need more toughness, so I'm guessing curios would be my clutch?

I think the trick right now is that regardless of class you need a solution for Ragers. They just loving destroy you in melee so you need to have a ranged solution to delete them with or a way to stagger them instantly in melee even if they're mid-combo when they have significant stagger resistance.


Pretty much the only time I'm going down in melee is if a maul/crusher ninja sneaks up on me or I flub a dodge vs one, or I just get Rager'd. Ragers suck.

Full toughness curios work well for me. That and a revolver to delete things that I can't reach that post a threat quickly. But I do feel a little more fragile, that is true.

Until you get a better feel for your survivability with the class, +health/tough/tough blessings with +health/tough/gunner on the perks is a very straight forward setup for maximum survivability.

I drop one of the +health perks on my Zealot for +revive, personally.

You can only change two of the four consecrations on your weapon. The two you pick are infinitely editable but the two you don't are locked in.

You can change only two out of four possible things on your weapon. There are two possible perks and two possible blessings. Making a change marks a slot as changed; you can swap out the contents of the changed slot as much as you want but you can only have two changed slots.

when you're looking at the missions on the mission board you can see who the narrator is going to be during the mission. For Carnival, you want to pick up the one that's narrated by Marrow. That's the one you get to hear Wolfer get increasingly irate. :allears:

I'd try out brutal momentum in the blessing slot for sure. Maybe +flak in the perk slot that you've got.

Axe looks good otherwise. I suspect that headtaker IV is doing a lot of heavy lifting.

Infested does more damage against pox walkers, dogs, and plague busters. Unless you need the additional horde clear, infested usually isn't a prime pick.

Just as a side note I was hearing in a video the other day that +CRIT DAMAGE perks only apply to the extra crit part of the damage instead of the entire (damage+crit damage) so you're getting like 10% of just the crit damage instead of 10% of (damage+crit damage). Looks like a pretty good axe though.

Can't change the +crit perk due to the crafting rules - there's a lock beside it. You only get to modify 2 of the 4 slots on your weapon. Either 2 perks, 2 blessings, or 1 of each. After that the other things you didn't touch are set into stone, permanently. This, of course, has given rise to "break the locks" discourse amongst the player base, in an attempt to get Fatshark to further expand the flexibility of crafting. It's probably not gonna work.

I could have been more clear but that was what I meant by side note. Like if it wasn't locked on a future weapon of anyone ITT they would have further info about how it works to decide if they wanted to remove it or not (as one of the 2 changes you can make).

I'm trying to build a better laspistol for my veteran. Testing makes burn damage on crit look pretty bad, the dot is capping out at 21 damage per tick at max stacks. I think ghost is the only reason I can play damnation difficulty, but I might be over-valuing it? I also have access to raking but I'm fairly sure it only really comes up against monstrous enemies.

Are dumdum or toughness on critical kill worth trying to get?

Haven't self tested but someone else online told me Dumdum is bugged to proc at all ranges, not just close range. Even if it was just close range it would still be good.

Dumdum actually has synergy with Infernus in that each burn tick procs Dumdum and also Dumdum boosts the burn damage.

Reassuringly Accurate actually procs pretty dang often and is a nice QOL blessing if you don't need suppression immunity or ranged attack immunity. Ghost is really nice for blasting in tense situations.
