Thanks for the comment! All feedback helps this video get noticed in the youtube algorithm, so appreciate the time you took in helping me out :) enjoy the builds!
I found hammerblow to be my preferred blessing for the vet’s shovel. The impact boost sends almost everything flying everywhere and they don’t attack for a long time since they need to get up first. While useless on lower damnation modifiers, on histg or any auric mission it helps a lot not get clipped by little melee hits.
Used to love playing Lawbringer before they added the other shotguns, but the special was so lackluster. I missed the buff to it in the patch notes, can't wait to give it an other try!
Can't wait to try these builds in 6 months when I finally get the right blessings and enough resources to change them, only to get screwed over by RNG or another patch. Jokes aside, I really like the Grim Reaper build, I'll definitely give it a try when I can.
it is great fun mate. I'll be honest it started as a meme but I kept finishing Auric missions with it and getting great scoreboard numbers, so I started to believe!
I'd love to see another zarona build, but am eager to try these out. Most looking forward to the bleed bringer because I absolutely love the weapons specialist keystone
I have to properly lab both the revolvers since the update, there's been so much to think about I haven't gotten around to it yet. But I shall! In the meantime, I can safely say the Bleedbringer is excellent fun and feels really different (but not less strong) then a lot of more standardized Veteran builds. Just dissolving crowds into goop is so satisfying :D
Definantly gonna try the grim reaper build I absalutly love shock troop style builds. One thing tho, I personaly prefer the agripinaa infentry autogun since the recoile is more controlable and its the only one that can pen poxwalkers making it super deadly aginst hordes. can the agripinaa be as effective as columnus?
Your videos are great for the 'well, that's another weapon to grind towards' effect, not to mention just opening my eyes to weapons I'd been sleeping on. (Which I say after getting an almost God Role plasma from the 'Big Game Hunter' vid, was 76% damage instead on 79-80%). Good show I say.
Thank you for your kind words my friend! Just a quick update about the Plasma, they actually fixed the stupid charge rate bug if you can believe it, so at the very least that stat is much less important! It might have shifted the breakpoints a little, so worth testing that 76% damage plasma if you still have it
Great video, few questions did you try the heavy laspistol with weapon specialist? The rate of fire and extra crit is nice and you can pick up the melee stamina node and deadshot to give you tons of crit with a way to get a nice chunk of stamina back. Last quest why ghost over the Las burning blessing?
I did try it out of Weapon Swap but it felt a bit lackluster if I'm honest, although I do love that stamina node you reference, really great in Deadshot revolver builds. So you can run Infernus, but it's only relevant for bosses, everything else dies too quickly to get much value. Whereas Ghost is relevant any time you're getting shot at. Ultimately though, I don't think the Las Pistol has blessings, so if you prefer one over the other go for it.
best vet build is plasma gun + mk6 sword (pox walkers) or mk3 sword (big armored enemy fallback weapon), bleeder nades, regen nades, toughness on headshot kills on the plasma gun, voice of command + friendly boost the keystones at the bottom almost don't matter. Only problem now is the server can get too laggy when it's spawning a billion enemies in auric that you can't activate the power sword.
Never have i ever seen anyone do good with plasma gun, full build for plasma gun yeah kills bosses faster but becomes utter shit in every other category, me and everyone i play with have tried plasma gun multiple times and everytime we come to the conclusion "You're better off running anything else" bosses aren't even that big of a threat anyway so the trade off isn't worth it in any scenario.
@@multiHappyHacker My bad i meant to say big guys but brain farted and typed bosses, but as i said almost anything feels a lot better overall my revolver can pretty much one shot almost every elite and specialist while your plasma in your video doesn't, no need to charge it and no need to cool it. I can only think 1 good mission for plasma and it's the modifier where it's mostly crushers.
There is a build that you can run where you can get it to perform on Auric. But, in the interests of total transparency, it is the worst performing gun in the game atm. I'll have a tinker.
Personally i have a crippling addictiln to the Revolver (Zarona) and Combat Knife, played properly you never have to reload, and with krak grenades there isnt anything in the game outside of bosses you csnt one or two shot, and even those still melt with the bleed and crit and bonus weakspot damage
it's funny because pre patch I tried to make chain axe work (Or atleast feel alot better with it's lack of horde clear) and I came up with pretty much exactly the bleed build. I don't vibe with Man-Stopper. I think Scatter Shot is better but whatever :)
Ha, nice! Chain Axe is so dope now. Bloodletter t4 is nuts as well. I like Manstopper in exactly Weapon Specialist builds, otherwise it's not very good, but shines in that one.
@@theactionwindow5008 yeah it really is! Chain axe for sre my fav melee weapon (Always has been but couldn't justify it before the patch) Idk I played with Man-Stopper for like 5-6 missions now and I just can't seem to actually feel it. haven't had that 'wow holy fuck' moment. Idk :)
@@Military81 all the UI stuff is 3 mods: Custom HUD Crosshair HUD Numeric UI Then I run a bunch of other shit for quality of life but those are the 3 on display here.
My UI mods: Numeric UI Custom HUD Crosshair HUD (the one I think you mention) Crosshair and Custom HUD both made by the same dude and they are completely synergistic with each other. Takes some minutes to set up but it's the nicest UI i've found for Darktide.
i an unable to comprehend the stealth vet builds in damnation or auric. i find standing quietly in a corner to be impossible at these levels, and there's not enough CD in the world to offset this.
@@TheRealSykx it gets easier when you realise that weakspot hits give 1s mobility without losing stacks, and headshot kills give 3s. You don't bring marksman weapons with the marksman keystone. You bring a lead sprayer.
Because I have a good relationship with Fatshark, being a playtester and part of their content creator program, and having played the game for its entire lifespan
If I see these any of these builds in auric lobbies I leave, unless I'm in a 3stack and we want an additional difficulty modifier
cool story bro
The autogun build is actually pretty good. Played plenty of missions with em so far and there's no issue imo.
Thanks for the comment! All feedback helps this video get noticed in the youtube algorithm, so appreciate the time you took in helping me out :) enjoy the builds!

Glad to see the reaper back in action 🫡🫡🫡
Ngl feels a bit op in this patch. But then again, everything does.

It's great fun now, the special is a blast
man, new MK VII Shovel + Columnus Autogun is INSANE!! Sadly I don't have tier 4 uncanny (only tier 3 i got) but it's still blasting. Love your VIDS!!
Thanks mate! Appreciate your lovely comment and kind words here (and don't worry, tier 3 Uncanny will be absolutely fine!)
Good stuff here, have a comment for the algo. I'll try out that bleed build later
Thanks boss, appreciate it
I tried the invis ability last night and loved it. With that HUNK build I'm sure ill love it even more! Good soup.
Do you have any links to your skill trees?
I'll bend the knee to the algo Gods, you deserve it.
We trying out here, Ty friend
Can't wait to try these builds in 6 months when I finally get the right blessings and enough resources to change them, only to get screwed over by RNG or another patch.
Jokes aside, I really like the Grim Reaper build, I'll definitely give it a try when I can.
I've seen a lot of guide mention specific weapon upgrades. Is there a way to bought them directly, or just RNG?
That shotgun build is really unique I’ll have to try it
it is great fun mate. I'll be honest it started as a meme but I kept finishing Auric missions with it and getting great scoreboard numbers, so I started to believe!
scattershot+bleed works much better. can add any other keystone too imo
@@theactionwindow5008finally got around to making the shotgun build it’s pretty fun lol. I really am suprised at how well it works

Could you please do a recon lasgun build? I've been using it lately and it's super fun but I can't find a way for it to match up in Auric.

What mods are you using in your game?
quite a few, what were you thinking about specifically?
@@theactionwindow5008
Well, ammo counter, HP/Toughness in the middle. Honestly wouldn't mind a full list so i can pick out what I'd like.
@@Military81 all the UI stuff is 3 mods:
Custom HUD

What’s the UI mod name that I see in the psykhanium? In minute 1:55

Isn't vet base crit 10% unlike the other classes' 5%?
It was. Got changed to 5% with the all the others in Patch 13, and the extra 5% got turned into that stat node.
i an unable to comprehend the stealth vet builds in damnation or auric. i find standing quietly in a corner to be impossible at these levels, and there's not enough CD in the world to offset this.
Don't worry I'm sure you'll get the hang of it
stealth vet should be mobile constantly not standing in any corners, i'm confused
@@TheRealSykx every build should be constantly mobile, staying still is a good way to get splatted
@@theactionwindow5008 which is why the marksman capstone is so weird

@@Ravenor99 no problem mate! Hope you enjoy!
This was...a gameplay showcase. Good shooting, I guess?
Eh?
Bruh how you can name your video brutally efficennt builds, when 2 of 3 are absolute garbage
Taking the shotgun is like deliberately handicapping yourself, tbh if there is no columnus in the build,you are just trolling
