Congratulations, Fatshark. You did it. You broke me. I'm done

I created an account just for this. 2mil ordos and 50k plasteel just for thrust IV is NOT fun.

I don’t care how many times others have complained about this. I no longer have any incentive to play this game. This is currently one of the most fun games for me to play right now, but you’ve put so many road blocks up I can’t enjoy it. I can’t enjoy more than one build per character and I can’t continue like this without being stressed out and pissed off about it every time I log on now.

Even after spending what I mentioned on however many hundred hammers for ONE BLESSING to reach a stupid breakpoint I have exactly TWO thunderhammers with the base stats and perks necessary to reach said breakpoints, and even then I have to choose between the two for whichever breakpoint I want to hit. A month’s worth of work for me.

I’m not touching this game again until crafting is fixed. There’s just too many layers of RNG to have any more fun.

Edit: None of this is to mention that half the time I try to build a weapon the next patch invalidates what I was working towards. So that’s even more wasted resources.

Congrats on becoming free of the game’s curse. The only way to win is to not play.

I feel you. Memorialized you and your thread.

Know you aren’t alone. They have said they have changes planned but when those will come, and whether they will be drastic enough to alleviate these issues… I cannot say.

I do think voting with your time is good. Play other games, ones that respect your time.

Not saying that the crafting is good, but imagine caring about 5% damage difference that much.

In order to make youb feel even worse i thought i’d let you know that the hammers are bad and the MK12 chain axe can hit all the breakpoints the hammer should for oneshots. But the hammer doesn’t.

;^)

You wasted your mats for nothing of value. Im sorry.

Nothing i said would have been the least bit mean if this game’s blessing acquisition and crafting system weren’t disgustingly awful. The meanness belongs to fatshark.

I know, but the poor guy just dumped all those mats and all that time. Salt in the wound!

It will keep the wound clean. Also promotes osmosis so it can heal it faster as well.

Not sure where that fits in the metaphor though.

I’m one bad crafting day away from taking a break myself anyways.

Lag has been absolutely awful for the past 3 days, and I’m assuming its not going to get better once FS goes on holiday.

If it nudges you over the breakpoint you want, it makes all the difference in the world.

If it doesn’t, it’s worthless.

The lesson here is that focusing on breakpoints in DT is a fool’s game.

That’s how I feel every time I read they nerfed one of the only good things the psyker class had because smooth brain people think the weakest class that is made of wet paper is the only class that can’t have anything they see as “OP”

I haven’t had fun playing this game since they nerfed the only weapon psyker had I found fun just as I was getting good with it and made a set of perks I liked

Are you talking about assail spam which is still great, the infinite smite bug, or the insta kill surge staff bug?

( I’m going to assume that you mean the assail nerf, and not the bug fixes being nerfs because this isn’t the steam forums, and I don’t automatically assume people are mouthbreathers here. )

I don’t disagree that they are extra squishy, but that isn’t solved by them having an auto targeting weapon that invalidates the need to ever aim by deleting all shooter packs, and severely weakening rager packs almost for free.

Having a slightly longer cooldown per projectile is not an issue for the people who used assail properly anyways ie not leaning on it as your primary weapon.

I’m already on your side when I say I think psyker could use like another 30-40 base toughness so that their toughness regen talents (that don’t rely on kills at all) could have way more value.

As it is my gunpsyker is the only one with good toughness regen because of the MK V autogun chaining crits + assail weaved in keeping my toughness almost topped, but I can’t do that with a staff which is how psyker is generally meant to be played.

Staff psyker does not feel viable without unusual effort similar to how Patch 15 vet felt which is generally a very bad sign.

It would be nice if they changed the surge staff into a bolt staf that forks/chains on hit (so you have to aim to hit manually) to differentiate it from smite while still being a cool lightning effect. Actually that sounds more like smite and current smite feels more like surge.

Yeah, i know, i know, but as reginald said, hammer can’t hit the breakpoints, so…
And imo, lvl3 blessings are enough for what you want to do on all weapons i run.

yup. nothing worse than finally getting a 370+, with decent stat dispersion, only to have it get botched by horrible perks and blessings, with no way to salvage it.

I feel this very much!
A year ago that was exactly what made me stop playing after 500+ hours.
I re- and deinstalled the game the last 4 weeks 3 times, but now i have fun again trying new weapons and skills/builds.

I know after some time i wish for better loadouts and BiS stuff and if i dont get it i’ll burn out again because of this.

Meanwhile i just enjoy with ok to nice gear and blessings as Long as i can.

When i hit the Breakpoint i’ll pause again until new stuff is coming or an overhaul of all the rng bs.
I doubt they will do this, but still the core gameplay is so much fun If you can overcome min maxing etc.

I have burned all my diamantine for OK and fun gear for Vet, Zealot and Ogryn.
9000 of each and i have like 3 Million dockets and still around 4000 plasteel, but diamantine is like a year ago RAW and less, i wish i could buy it for ordo docketts, but i have to farm heresy like crazy and need to be lucky for blessings.
I also have like 10k of Melks currency and buy weapons for blessings only.
