so i made a pretty good in depth review on how to use the weapon specialist keystone and i think people are complaining to complain. I want to try the other ones soon, but i just have so much fun with weapon specialist because of how well it fits my playstyle. [Get Better-an with Veteran] …

I don’t think Survivalist is that great unless you’re an Ogryn, then you really appreciate all the +1’s being added to your Kickback. +5% Damage permanently existing in coherency is a solid and good choice. I would say that +5% Movement Speed is the only aura that really doesn’t compete at all with…

[image] simpliv: added to your Kickback. The reason kickback exists is why I’m not running Survivalist. Ogryns spamming everything with kickback can get bent.

[image] simpliv: +5% Damage permanently existing in coherency is a solid and good choice. It’s good if it helps you hit a useful breakpoint. Otherwise I don’t think it’s impactful. Also Zealots or gun Psykers appreciate survivalist plenty. What it does for your own sustain is pretty important…

[image] simpliv: I don’t think Survivalist is that great unless you’re an Ogryn, then you really appreciate all the +1’s being added to your Kickback. That’s a grossly terrible take. Survivalist is absolutely massive and stronger than arguably any other coherency aura in the game. It scale…

[image] Armchair: Meanwhile 5% damage is basically garbage. Unless you can name a very good situation where that smidgen of damage pushes you over a key breakpoint, then it’s as good as nothing. I don’t subscribe to this. Breakpoints matter in many instances, but with the number of damage so…

Yes and no. I think the problem is that a lot of classes like zealot generate their own breakpoints. I really don’t notice that extra damage a lot of times but especially when running knife zealot I tend to notice a difference when I suddenly get a throwing knife back which translates to 1 ranged in…

…yeah, i just did a tier 5 mission using only my ranged weapon with volley fire stance no keynote no melee perks, not a single melee block or push. i used the helbore mark 3 lasgun.

[image] Nish: There is basically no time where you can “just shoot” enemies are always around you. I am starting to wonder if patch 15 director is a bit overbearing. A lot of my games are feeling pretty kitchen sink-y where its just a slog. Not always bad but sometimes even my crack teams can…

Did you… did you just question the patch 15 director? GUARDS! Take this wretch away…
