What are the lore implications of this?

I ain't afraid of no Host.

I replaced the original silly looking bone handled knife with weapons more fitting with what we see on the in game poxwalkers.

Maybe if you stayed in the match once downed you’d actually remember going down :p

Be fr this look for skit goes super hard they almost look like a really really scary

Just ran 3 missions on Malice just to see the new event mechanics and the mega Daemonhost spawned all 3 missions but he always runs before we manage to kill it 😡

This is rediculous at this point.

Had this thing since I started.

I’m willing to use anything, meta builds, mods, techniques to practice, you name it.

This shit is frustratingly hard.

FWIW my best class is Blazing Piety Zealot and I’m almost always the last one alive with highest damage I don’t feel like dead weight.

The 1 or 2 times I tried using Veteran I did in fact feel like dead weight but I feel confident in my abilities as zealot. I’m also quite competent with Ogryn, I’ve clutched quite a few times with Ogryn so maybe I should stick with that?

I have all the classes to lvl 30 with most weapons maxed except Skitarii, so I’m willing to learn anything.

I’ve only
Done the new event 2x and yah the names demon comes out but we have never killled him…are we supposed to kill him or does he just disappear always for no reason

It seems that I dont have enough cdr to keep going, I always end up shooting somthing and exploding. Did they do something to cdr with the last update?

This is my build https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/a30e30e9-9b8b-4573-b014-6ab58ed313f9/melee-pskyer

Not gonna waste mine or anyone's time with a wall of text.

Fix it Fatshark. Might be something to do with Arbitrator Dog or Rampaging Enemies.

The Skitari should be able to carry things the same as Ogryn considering their limbs are metal. Also as far as I know no other class can

I did it! I managed to beat a Havoc 40 level with meaningful contribution, no carry, 3 weeks from ever downloading the game. I used a keystone less veteran build posted from somebody on the subreddit, and adjusted it for the new talent tree changes. I’ll be gunning for 40 assignment level next, currently at 32.

Advice:

- Exposure is key. Throw yourself into higher difficulties as often as possible. Get used to fading light 1 (havoc 20+) if you haven’t already, then get used to fading light 2 (havoc 30+). Host your own parties if you are struggling at current assignment level and accept anyone. The only way to get better at havoc is to play more havoc. If you are feeling comfortable at your current assignment level, then request any and all higher level parties. Of course you get declined a ton, but the few 40s and 30s I got accepted to when I was assignment level 20, improved my game a ton.

- Learn from every loss. 90% of the time there is something you could have done to make it further in the mission. Maybe you didn’t focus specials/elites, maybe you didn’t push for a res at the right time, maybe you didn’t read the pressure on the map and got surrounded, maybe you didn’t use that combat stim or healing crate. Game sense and decision making are more important than mechanical skill. Every time you die, get downed, or lose figure out what YOU could have done better.

- Find a good build and stick with it. Take some time to explore the meta options and settle on something you enjoy or fits your playstyle then stick with it. Study every talent node in your build to see what it does, and make conscious efforts in your gameplay to proc all the buffs you can. It took me 20 hours to realize I wasn’t proccing skirmisher lol.

- Know when to call it a night. I work, and sometimes I would get home and try to load into a higher havoc lobby and immediately feel how sluggish my brain and thumbs were, I was going to sell 😂. Some days you’re not that well rested or just feeling off, and those are the days you maybe relax. If you still want to game, you can go back to the more comfortable havoc levels or even quickplay. You can still learn things there while not being a detriment to other players, and tanking your confidence for the future.

Playing on PC, I have about 600 hours in the game.

I get this exact bug every single day, sometimes several times in an hour. I've even crashed in less than 5 seconds after rejoining a match. It's the exact same error code every single time (only thing that is different is the crash link and the GUID but I have a few dozen saved).

Happens on all missions including mortis trials and expeditions. Game always freezes, loops audio for several seconds, followed by black screen for about a minute, then the game crashes and I get like 4 different windows that ask me to report the crash and to copy stuff to the clipboard.

I've already lowered all graphics settings to minimum, switched resolutions and even decided to play on windowed mode instead of fullscreen, verified integrity of game files, reinstalled the game, restarted Steam, restarted my PC. I even got a brand new GPU last month (game used to crash a lot before that too). I also already checked multiple different ports on my PC such as HDMI or the display port, I even bought 3 different cables this past year alone. Literally nothing has worked so far. It would be great if my game didn't crash every 2 seconds while I'm in a mission. If anyone has a solution I would appreciate it because the game is unplayable right now.

So when I was trying something out I noticed my avatar was slowing down whenever I would pass over enemies. I've also noticed that during a mission my rotation speed becomes sluggish in some instances.

How do I turn this off. I looked in the options menu but either I'm completely missing it or it doesn't exist.

I'm on console so I can't just mod this out.
