Well ever since the veterans became glass cannons (no offense) they have had a struggle in heresy and it all depends on the “amount of toughness” armor amount but sometimes those don’t work very well to save the hp for I would like to introduce that is already in the game in the skill tree perk “toughness reduction” because the toughness points or known as tp in the game for would like be % how much toughness can be put into the characters, already ogryn has strong toughness as same with some the zealot perk tree but 2 class may or may not die but always close to die every time. As for that, this is all depends on what team you had forum but more likely, for some strange reason we didn’t get enough ogryn or zealot somehow magically, sometime it has been a struggle when it comes to full team miss matches with veterans, and single psycher.
I believe a new perk/blessing for the Curior would help players a bit more in the game when it comes to the point of playing in heresy or in damnation mode.
You’re not, I just found this topic and the title doesn’t really get to the meat and potatoes of Vets being glass cannons, which is actually a very big issue to many at the moment. I agree that they do need to bring the Vet’s toughness back up, maybe not as much as before but at least a little.
I thought I was alone with this one but seriously back to the main topic, I just hope the dev solves the issue of why is the veteran’s armor being paper towards the enemies for there isn’t a perk boost the toughness reduction for in damnation even the stupid regular infested hit like a damn truck and before the update they use to not hit like a truck which I am struggling on damnation as a veteran. As psycher has a unique perk per each 10% peril which psycher’s seizure to me they had buffness of toughness reduction and they have better survival ability than veterans which it was quite way too useful for them.
Right now, I am only suggesting toughness reduction as a new perk or blessing because crushers in Heresy or Damnation they basically nearly 1or 2 hits on a veteran, and then they are gone even though you increase the health or toughness points it means no jack crude for you are wearing paper plate armor against which lots of players will also demand this a lot because toughness reduction is a real thing in the game.
That’s sadly how the forum works right now. Good ideas, well any idea for that matter, get buried by people circle jerking about crafting and the score board. Those topics get a lot of pointless posts that push all the other content off the front page. And for those posts that do gain traction, it’s only a matter of time before they’re drowned out by the circle jerk.
I am sorry for my thread but sticking with the topic.
I would kindly ask you dev please do not forsake the idea of toughness reduction as a blessing and a perk because I believe it provides the benefit for the players to enjoy the game and make the game last longer to have fun to deal with beyond damnation the fact some class has it really hard and the sniper really is doing 1 hit wonder in heresy and damnation to veteran so could you please have mercy on the veteran class to buff them or have on curior so that players can tank the hits enough to worth doing so either saving an ally or dealing with the toughest daemon host in heresy or damnation if the player doesn’t have a ogryn.
I try to make a statement to help future players who might play Dark Tides and not ward away new players, so please dev what do you think and answer please?
Snipers do 122.5 damage to health in damnation, which is the hardest difficulty. That is before sniper resistant curios which are already in the game. Every character has a base health of 150 or higher.
Also, according to the patch notes for the coming patch #14, veteran’s abilities, 2 of which are defensive, are getting a notable buff. Vets are gonna be fine.
I am not sure about the upcoming patch but I hope they will give enough toughness for the veterans even though we have curios, it doesn’t block all of them, pretty much I have…had a crazy story to tell you but I pretty much you won’t believe me, I had all specialist spawn in which all the list of specialist you see in the meat grinder, they all came in triple the amount, I dunno what is fair which curios going block that but I don’t think it is going save me or my friends that long run. Do you understand my suffering is the level of lament curse space marine with the veteran? That is how I feel, you started good from medium and when walking in heresy or damnation they play uno reverse card on you.
