yea… I see the kind of player you are.
Using OP weapons and “meta” builds and thinking this is the only way to play the game.
You don’t have a clue about the game. You would like to know why? Cause you know only playing with OP weapons. So you don’t test, you don’t even try what the game has to offer. So your input is as valuable as is the input of my son on the game (he is 8 years old). But still, I would listen my son cause, at least, he doesn’t try to insult me.
You think I’ve never tested Rashad? You know I was the guy that asked a fix for the Rashad combat axe? I was using it when you had not even the idea to even try it.
Did you understand what I say? no, surely not. You just read what you wanted.
Considering the DPS you can deal (with just few talents) on the veteran with a melee weapon, while AT SAME TIME, dealing insane ranged damages, the veteran is, in term of power, above the zealot. But still a zealot is far above the veteran in term of survavibility (and I’ve written it).
This is far from my best game… I admit, I was a little irritated by your post. This is NOT a build I use. This was just to show that you can do a lot of damages with a melee weapon on a veteran. And just that (i did not even pick the right curios).
Also this is done with a antax combat axe without brutal momentum (yes, you can).
See? I did more melee damages than the zealot. Auric high int.
Oh and yes I died one time cause of me, i died a second time cause I tried to help and the guy has let me alone in middle of enemies (I must try to adapt and stop trying to play as a team, I promise I will try one day).
Oh, and I took time to collect plasteel… sorry, I have maybe lost a little of damages I could have dealt… This is just something I usually do, so I do not even think before going for a chest… too many games collecting materials.
Edit: I have forgotten to add something really important. I would never claim that I own the truth. I am here to exchange and discuss around darktide. I can be convinced sometimes by the arguments of others. I can disagree also sometimes. At the end, it does not matter. This a a space of discussions.
Let’s say it, your arguments, or the lack of, have not convinced me. Especially when I see that you want playing with all most OP weapons of the game (at least you know them, that’s sure). All weapons that deserve, strong or slight, nerfs.
And yes the combat axe I used here (to show you the kind of amount of damages we can do with a melee weapon on a veteran) is also too strong. And, or several weapons need a buff, or this weapon needs a nerf. And yes, I did this amount of DPS without brutal momentum on my combat axe.
