Vermintide 2 is having a free weekend. Why aren't you mayflies playing and witnessing true elven superiority

>being an heretic
do you even witch hunt?

I have l a bit less than half your playtime with all achievements, step it up senpai

Already played the new map a few times yesterday and I'll probably play it some more this weekend. The boss during the tavern brawl was a surprise desu

i got 100% in the first month with 177h of playtime what are you even saying there were no hard achievements in this game

What's the best secondary weapon for slayer?
Still 2h hammer?

I don't care about achievements. I'm missing the Sienna and Legend related ones because I don't like how Sienna plays and I don't like to play Legend: it's full of tryhards.

I don't think I've seen a single sienna in 20 hours of play

Which is why i told him to step it up. He said he doesnt like sienna which i dont blame, but legend is ezpz and the tryhards are in champ more than legend, ive seen

I still have to be insta-kicked for joining a match while playing IB or any Elf iteration on Champion, while that happened a bunch of times on Legend.

I liked the first one a bit when it first came out, but then they started adding a bunch of extra loot shit and the second one seems to have really ramped that up. I don't really like having to min/max and farm drops and shit in games. plus I hear the second game is kinda dead

>plus I hear the second game is kinda dead
You heard wrong.
The game is pretty active and you can get into a match almost always get into a match right away.

>convocations' finale with full tomes and grims with pub shitters
good lord there's fucking nowhere to dodge without getting hit, plus only a single globadier needs to spawn to fuck you.

what's wrong with shade

Depends on the playstyle. I used to prefer greathammer but i'm starting to use the axes for hordes and use warpick for caving kazaki skulls in a single blow.

I play both

At this point, legend is the only way I can have fun, any other difficulty is so easy it becomes tedious and boring

man i love playing elf but waifufags turn everything they touch into shit. kerillian is a dirty warrior like the rest of the crew. not some half naked whore

On a somewhat related note, anyone played the closed beta of the “not D3” warhammer arpg?
I love fantasy but from what if seen, it’s too D3 to my liking, that and being a new game with probably no end game is a big no no

no, but what's it called? I might want to keep my eye on it.

I'm pretty sure it's inquisitor-martyr

Chaosbane, it has Kerillian and Kruber copy.

It's a weak spot. It deals extra damage (a fuck ton if you stab it as shade) but doesn't trigger on headshot effects like the ammo refund

I don't like AOS but some of the models they are making for it are pretty awesome. I have bought a few because I like the painting and modeling part of the hobby more than playing games. Also, GW isn't making the games. They are selling a license and studios like Fat Shark are free to choose the topic.

Don't understand all the hate for Elf. I carry the fuck out of any game I join as Handmaiden. Shade I only use to fuck around in Champion with since having an all potions trinket plus pressing F deletes any boss in less than 10 second bar Trolls. I'm sorry the rest of you get shit-tier Kerillians with greedy elven throats gobbling down all the green they see.

There are shitters for every character but elf has the ability to perform the best imo solely because of shade and its ability to delet all bosses, even troll dies super quick cause of the extra backstab damage. Its also partially the fact that its a good meme.

>mainly ranged

>ridiculous special auto delete you don't even have to aim
sienna has some overlap, but doesn't have the same appeal, because there are other mechanics you have to manage.

Attached: TRUTH HURTS.webm (994x560, 2.91M)

>>ridiculous special auto delete you don't even have to aim
Tracking on trueflight volley and Sienna's pyro fireball were nerfed several months ago already. Shooting them in a random direction will end up in a waste of the ult more often than not, so it forces you to lock them on a target first now, and figure the trajectory if you want to shoot past an obstacle

Waystalker has to be her worst class, her F a long time ago used to delet chaos warriors, pyro used to be the same way and was more reliable but now it only works with headshots I think. With handmaiden you have more dodge range and shade just has more damage. Waystalker just is more reliable special removal I guess.

>Waystalker just is more reliable special removal I guess.
You act as if thats bad. During a horde or bossfight specials are absolute menaces' especially warriors, and being able to just look at them and press F is good.

Nothing like getting wasted while killing ratmen.

That's exacly why the class is useful

Why should I play this over the first? (which I have)

I haven't played since the new year, but I think the appeal to bad players is still there, regardless of if it is not as broken as it used to be. from what I've seen most bad players will pick the easy class because it's less to worry about, but still end up shooting you in the back one way or another.
that said I've played with some damn fine elf players who basically carried the team.

I have close to 1k hours in this game, playing together with my brother and a friend of ours. I usually main waystalker and I think I do pretty good on her (altho I do play more or less every class except anything Kruber out of personal taste). However, if I'm not playing Kerillian, anyone joining as her will invariably be a shitter, at least 19 out of 20 times. I do agree with you

She's off-topic. Please talk about Vermintide.

Its because dwarves are fat, short, hairy, and autistic making it the neckbeards race of choice.

Sorry loser, I have friends to play legend with

>I carry the fuck out of any game I join as Handmaiden
a lot of handmaidens think they're doing this when what's actually happening is that they're F-ing all over the place and redirecting enemy aggro away from themselves and towards the team.

Confirmed for shitter

Do you take a lot of random damage? A simple as it sounds, making sure you don't get knocked down out of stupidity is the most basic thing to you need to succeed in champ/legend.

Might as well, the jump to champ isn't that big anyways. You get friendly fire but on champ I think it's only 10% of the full damage.

>Brace of Pistols now require reload
ULRIC CURSE THIS GAME OF WEAK BALANCE

Already own it and it runs like shit on my toaster. Also the scoreboard encourages terrible play.

How the fuck does greataxe kill hordes?

Wait what, pretty sure i haven't noticed anything different with them.

Yep, no more spamming your bow through the frontline, you elf scrub

To be fair it's just 10% the damage in champion and 25% in legend

It used to be 25% and 50% before it got nerfed

use heavy attack my dude

BoP now has a "magazine size" of 12, and you have to "reload" as in sling new pistols into the brace that get taken from the ammo pool. To make up for this they hit A LOT harder and they now fire an actual bullet that can pierce targets like handguns do, so I'm pretty happy with the change myself

The problem with the game is how repetitive it is and how pathetic leveling feels.
I played over a year ago and I remember that you almost did like the same damage after 15 lvls or so, which enhances the repetitive feel.

Its fun, but needed way more levels and better lvling system/scaling. You basically played the game after 2 hours regardless of your progress

Cahrged attacks and lots of movement. 2h axe KILLS hordes extremely fast, faster than any other dwarf melee weapon. The problem is that it has dogshit cleave, so you have to constantly keep moving.

On the other hand, the 2h hammer kills hordes SAFELY requiring pretty much zero movement, but significantly slower than the 2h axe.

This is, of course, in the case of Ironbreaker. Kruber Merc can buff the 2h hammer to a retarded combination of horde killing speed and safety.

Ironbreakers are the real FFfags. Elfchads at least have to aim their shots while IBs just hold left click and kill evrything in their path, both rat and teammate

Use your little stubby legs to dodge the rattos while you swing the axe. 2h axe requires more efficient movement than any other dwarf weapon.

I don't even main IB but if I had to stop firing every time an absolute fucking retard like you jumps in front of the flamethrower for those sweet little green circles, I wouldn't use the weapon ever again. I'm already holding back the horde on that side, go fucking fight elsewhere

Its the journey not the destination

Loved the game, but leveling was a complete chore and the items were a little confusing. Too bad there was also only like 7 levels. My friend stopped playing with me after like a week

Attached: gamer soul.png (560x378, 151K)

You get 800 base exp per mission regardless of difficulty now, so leveling is a non-issue anymore. Also there's 13 maps in the base game, 2 in the first dlc and 3+1 in the latest one

I heard the game is a mess. Some bugs from the alpha or beta are still in there or something, I also don't like a lot of the design choices FS made.

It had 13 levels on release. That said, I would have appreciated some exp bonus for characters lower-levelled than your highest level character.

Don't forget about Fortunes of War. They also said the new binge drinking one will make a return for events and free weekends and shit, but I kinda wish they'd leave it in the normal weekly event rotation

warpick is a bit janky at first too until you get used to it
really fun weapon though

Is the game still shit Yea Forums? I played it for like an hour then refunded, think I played the beta too for a bit before it came out.

I have the absolute worst luck with Athel Yenlui.
Fuck that map.

Aw fuck that, I used to love standing next to an ammo crate and going apeshit with those things

I'll never like Athel. Seems to have some of the worst patrol spawns, boss spawns and the whole wide forest section is annoying when your team takes too long.

Attached: 1521846843541.jpg (680x798, 319K)

Dual axes and dual hammers or dual axes and pickaxe is the only worthwhile setup for Slayer.

I fucking hate screaming bell if just because I'll see that fucking thing one out of every five levels when i've yet to even see the 2nd level of bogehafen ever. There is nothing interesting about the level.

Did they do anything to fix the abysmal hat drop rates?
I remember joining so much chinese cheating lobbies at the start because of that 1.5% drop rate

OH NO NOT ANOTHER BLOODY BELL

Depends on what you mean by shit. Its still the same game but most of the bugs have been fixed and balance is decent.

it's a flawed gem. you're right that it's plagued by bizarre bugs, some poor design choices, and sketchy performance, but at its core it has one of the best combat systems i've ever seen. in spite of how much i bitch about it and how fatshark is the worst dev ever, it still keeps me coming back.

also it's not exactly polished but it's come a long way since release (it used to be so bad you couldn't go 10 minutes without a game-ruining bug) and the balance is finally in a good place.

I usually roll 2h axe and dual hammers. I dont think 2h axe is top tier but its so much fun I can't not bring it. If you block cancel the 3rd hit in the light combo it's amazing for taking down chaos warriors, marauders and blackrats.

But kruber can also use the xsword which is pretty great all around. Plus that nice decap sound.

Because my computer drops to 0fps when a horde comes in. My computer's not even that bad. I'm running DMC5 and MHW at a solid 60fps. Any ideas?

Im an elffag but ocasionally I play salt just for brace of pistols. That shit rapes specials and are pretty accurate.

vt2 has dogshit optimization and is heavily reliant on your cpu. most you can do is turn down every cpu-related setting and hope for the best.

also dx12 runs better than dx11 but the game will micro-stutter until you've played for long enough to build up a cache.

Try to block every single attack. Block works 360 degrees, even if it doesn‘t look like it. If you suspect something is behind you and winding up a strike, block.
If a rat is charging at you, don‘t gamble that your attack will be faster than the running attack of the rat. Just block the hit and then kill it.
Not taking damage is more important than dealing slightly more.
Don‘t overuse push block. A normal block also staggers your enemy after they hit you and that‘s usually enough to dispatch them. Don‘t waste your stamina on two pushes and get downed afterwards.
If there‘s too much shit in front of you, dodge away. Bind dodge to a seperate button instead of having it on space as well.
Dodging has different distance for each weapon and decays after a few chained dodges. Dodging while blocking should keep you alive when you‘re in trouble.

No one likes fucking elves, not even other fucking elves. How much of a fuck up do you have to be to be the stereotypically attractive race, and yet still untolerable. Too horrid to even be a trophy squeeze.
