I feel like you guys took that thread about Devil Claw’s Sword, Shield Ogryn, and Shredder grenades way too seriously

Even the thread about Combat Blade felt unserious and this forum bit down on it hard, I mean y’all actually chewed on rinds to get some heated arguments out of it. Way more effort than what the OP put into it.

The things that need nerfs in Darktide have barely changed, both now and in the past.  
Because Fatshark still hasn’t properly addressed any of them.

- Inferno (Soulblaze)

- DS

- Gold Toughness

- Smite

These four things are what make Darktide’s combat too easy and, more importantly, less engaging.  
They absolutely need nerfs or some form of major adjustment and should not be left untouched.

Compared to these, things like Taunt or CB are relatively minor issues.  
If these four were properly nerfed, the game would immediately become far more challenging and rewarding, and only after that should the remaining smaller balance concerns be adjusted.

I more or less agree. I already don’t play h40s with any of the above, except for gold toughness soemtimes when someone in our group decides to use a veteran gun that doesn’t do well with exe stance. Thus im finding things that would still become trivializing even in that world where those top performers world be nerfed

I know the dclaw and shredder grenade were bait posts, feeding on the idea that “you guys want everything nerfed” by someone peeved by the latest adjustments
