This is simply a last minute setup I made to fool around with after my buddy Slav discovered that Lethal Proximity works with Shredder Frags. I wanted to see how it would do on the "hardest" maelstrom conditions since they were up at the time when I made a build. Overall this isn't anything really to write home about, it's sometimes a danger to swap to your ranged weapon just to try to make the most of the explosion when you would rather have your melee weapon out to deal with whatever's in front of you. I brought the Chainaxe to see how Opportunist felt since on the Mk4 its light attacks can stagger on weakspot hit against certain enemies as well as proc on armor/monsters when hit by VoC or grenades.
how did you like opportunist? Was thinking of also trying it recently - but the slaughterer + headtaker combo is so strong for just general fighting. Also thrust is always good too (but better on the XII i think)
@@Mamox45 I need to test it more with onslaught vs rending strikes talents to see if it’s even worthwhile. Overall I think headtaker/slaughterer is still the best anti-everything besides monsters where having bloodletter would be ideal. So far it seems opportunist is stronger on initial mob contact especially if their mass is low enough for the mk4 to stagger on light 1 weakspot hit but double stacking with head/slaughterer pulls ahead on sustained fighting.
It’s very strong, not as obscenely OP as it was 1.5-2 years ago but for people that can manage its poor mobility it’s an excellent anti-everything weapon, especially the mk6 once you master its push attack - light combo for single target

Thank you Vamp, my favorite Darktide creator, for yet another Darktide video! (big nade range edition)

What’s your thoughts on the power sword for veteran?

@@Vamp0613 I wish it wasn't bugged currently
How are your mods working? Framework stopped working for me since the patch.
there was a recent DMF update in the last 2-3 weeks IIRC otherwise troubleshoot in the modder's disc
How do you have 5 shredder grenades without even taking the grenade capacity perk? It’s caped at 4 with perk.
Auric Maelstroms sometiimes have a modifier that gives you more Grenades
with how much of a meat grinder that match was i feel like all the bleeding grenades and bolts were appropriate
Badly missing a drink
