Power Sword is by and far above the powerlevel of all other weapons in the game in both anti-horde and anti armour. on damnation/5 it takes one light special to kill basic infested and unarmoured with infinite cleave and one heavy attack for flak (also while having infinite cleave) comparatively w…

I’ve got all classes to at least level 20, and the power sword is just head and shoulders above anything else on offer. I find melee against both single targets like crushers and mixed hoards of chaff/bezerkers/armor MUCH easier with the veteran than with any other career due to the insane cleave an…

it’s strong for sure, and also lore accurate technically. but it lacks of defense actually, if by any chance for some reasons you get overwhelmed by enemies, even if you try to special button and then trying to CC sometimes might be a problem. i think it’s fairly balanced, it’s indeed strong, but …

I’m all for balance across the board, its an iterative process. But I’ve still got to politely disagree on the sword front. I find playing zealot with the eviscerator super satisfying right now. Its got an interesting move set with a mechanical depth that lets you tackle hoards or elites as long as …

Power Sword’s damage against armor and high HP enemies drops significantly on the highest difficulties. It’s super powerful (like everything else) on lower settings.

Most of my playtime at this point is on heresy, but I’ve done a few damnation runs. It seemed to me that the power sword still had infinite cleave on difficulty 5, as I was still cutting through chaff and armor with it reliably. This is of course just my anecdotal experience, but it felt safer and e…

Next Week, Ogryn will get a Power Maul. A two handed Power Sword has been leaked. Lets just wait a bit until the Weapons are finished…

Darktide isn’t Vermintide, but even Vermintide had weapons with infinite cleave targets (not infinite cleave damage.) Horde, and melee targets in general, are a single tier of threat in Darktide and every class has a weapon to rapidly eliminate them with various degrees of safety, range and angle of…

go play with the combat knife and learn to use it’s mobility to your advantage because that thing can really let you zoom and can deal decent damage to any target. The MkIV chainsword is also increadibly versitile and does more damage to carapace armor than a power sword. Go test things in the meat…

I agree with everything but Ogryns needing a melee buff. Ogryn melee is amazing.

At the very least ogryn knifes need to be able to deal some damage to carapace armour enemies. Currenly the only weapons that can deal decent damage in any capacity to the crusher are the ogryn shovel and the mk I club and I will never use the club because it looks like garbage. On tabletop Ogryn g…

Powersword is fine. If anything, it should be turned on and left on all the time.

The problem is the other weapons are lackluster, especially the chain weapons.

And here’s a mega-post on chain weapons.
