Are there any perks that decrease the charge time for power weapons? Or should I be focusing on traits instead to hit breakpoints?
Perks, no. Blessings, yes.

If you mean the time it takes to power up the power sword, via special action, then no not that I'm aware of at least.

If you mean like powering up a Psyker staff's secondary attack then yes and it's "Warp Flurry" that reduces charge time on chained attacks. "Volatile" reduces Plasma Gun charge time on chained attacks. I'm sure other weapons may have similar that's just some I know off the top of my head.

Did you know that if you rev up the Eviscerator and do a heavy sweep, it does more damage to all the normal guys cleaved (related to how it won't stop and saw unless it hits an elite or special target)?

I did! It only ever really happens if whatever I meant to use the rev attack on dies before I get to it though. I’m not sure if that effect applies to the chain sword.

Third time the charm on the Vet tree? I basically stopped playing both patches after getting frustrated that they torched my entire playstyle and the tree was frustrating to make work in any way. Maybe this brings me back :saddowns:

They are adding the vermintide potions to darktide, neat, will have to see if it is consumed instantly, kept in the medikit slot or has a separate slot like potions did.

It said "among others" so there ought to be at least 4 weapons -- but also "new marks," so don't expect any of them to be meltas or whatever

The infographic has a chain-axe as the image for the new marks, so that's probably one of the four as well.

That sounds like heretic talk.

A true servant of the Emperor respects the space efficiency of a folding shovel. More room in your rucksack for The Imperial Infantryman's Uplifting Primer, and maybe some devotionals.

Honestly I am here for new variants of really basic stuff like more shovels. I hope that if they have a fan-the-hammer style cowboy revolver the reload is a little faster than the one we've got :v: Maybe we'll finally have a reason for the run-n-gun blessing to exist on revolvers! (doubt it)

I'm hoping that they randomly show up like any other "Monster" tier encounter. Extra bonus points if they forget the interaction with "chance for specialists to become monstrosities" and we can fight 2-3 teams of the twins at the same time.

I’d keep both of those blessings. I’d probably drop the carapace enemies first since you;ll want your ranged attacks to deal with those.

Wow, had one of my highest damage games where I just was able to eat through all the ammo. It was high-intensity hounds so every time they came I pretty much filled up both zealots ammo. Only one ammo crate at the very end, and all those crits are free ammo as well (recon lasgun build). 3800 total kills for the team and 57 minutes :sweatdrop: Psyker was the real hero with smite and stun shield.

I got my first character to 30 and am now on the "get perfect itemisation" phase. Just to make sure I'm doing it right, here is what I'm doing:

1. Buy greys from brunt until I get the % numbers where I want them.
2. Upgrade that to orange.
3. Change up to two blessings/perks.
4. If I don't like what I have go back to step 1.

Sometimes you can decide if it's salvageable at blue or purple tiers based on the revealed slots, so you can save yourself the plasteel by not going all the way to orange. If you're fishing for tier 4 blessings you can keep going though.
