  • One of the more fun Veteran builds in patch 13 for me so far. The Recon Lasguns can finally shine by dealing a ton of concentrated damage to anything, including carapace armour, by using stacks of Crits and Rending from the Veterans tree. Ammo sustain is also reasonably good too with laser crits being free and ammo regen and capacity talents also slotted in.

    Playing a similar build. Feels really great with the damage you can dish out. Agree, ammo shortage is nearly never an issue, I find myself even spamming into hordes, just to diminish them a little. What I find difficult to handle is the damage you receive once your toughness drops below 70%. If you get cornered and take health damage, you die extremely fast. Which just feels weird, because gunners deal nearly no damage with some DMR on your curios. So scab-bombers, or flamers are bascially a death sentence if they manage to hit you.

      Ran into the same issue with this build, but I found you really don't need the 25% ammo reserve as long as you're even a little judicious. You can spend those 2 points at the bottom of left tree and get the nade regen and I think it still works great.

      Yeah, you need the no ammo use on crit talent to make the recons feel good you only get ammo issues when you get a 2+ ogryn gun lugger game. I've found the vet tree interesting because without keystones at the bottom I don't feel bad if I take multiple paths to get some interesting talents.
      Been really enjoying Smoke grenades with ally pickup shout and burny recon, feels like I can support the team quite a bit while still being able to deal with elites and a bleed chainsword if we get lots of ogryn. Probably a less useful build with a prebuilt group but very nice to take into quickplay.

    Love the recon. It's everything a lazgun should be. Zero recoil, huge mag size, very high rate of fire. It's effortless to line up a half dozen head shots, which is about what it takes to actually kill anything. That part isn't great, but the snappyness of the gun helps make up for it.

      To be able to afford the 'extra ammo' and 'toughness on elite kill' talents. However, as some others have suggested, you could probably manage without some of those in favour of grenade talents instead. Purely down to personal preference, and this was just what I was trying at the time.

    Maybe you guys are just real good but this game seems easier then Vermintide. Not saying it’s easy by any means, it looks as tough but it seems to be more offensive directed.

      I'd call them about even. I found it much easier to solo and clutch in Vermintide 2 because no shooter squads, but generally the melee combat and bosses are a bit easier in Darktide. More focus on team power in Darktide rather than individual power in Vermintide with things like Toughness vs. Temp health. Up to personal preference I think.
