Yeah. They fucked with my heavy swing bleed stacks. I had it down to a science on trash. The toughness ner...fix. I want to test.

Looks like they did bump up the near damage on nukes? Not sure what that even means.

I assume it was due to people walking through Aurics like it wasn't shit. People going to learn today.

The damage falls off the further away from the detonation you are, so it got a big buff to center point damage if that makes sense.

What build is this for who?
The Zealot backstab Crucis Hammer stealth build.

I am still one shotting regular monstrosities. Havent faced a nurgle buff monstrosity yet.

For me to pull it off, I need to have a lot of buffs going from fighting chaff before going after the monster. If I go in without any of my buffs, its unlikely I am gonna take it out in one hit. Severely damage it, but not kill it.

There is no way the plasma rifle stays at 100 cleave... Hellbore build might be better still with how everything ranged gets highlighted now.

I think the GSC idea is now dead.

I think the video at the end of the video, claiming possibly Wyrmwood's soul is a Chaos Demagogue. I play with this model in kill team and there are some pretty unique mechanics for the Chaos Cultists Kill Team and for this model.

I play Chaos Cultists in Kill Team. This would a great unit to bring into the game.

The faction mechanic works as follows:

At the top of the turning point (round) during the strategic ploy phase, you get X amount of mutations for which X turning point it is. 1 mutation for tp 1, 2 for tp2 etc etc. however the demagogue can force mutate a devotee into a mutant.

The mutation chain can only goes as follows devotee to mutant, mutant to torment (chaos spawn essentially).

They kinda look like the scabs that we see in the game now.

Mutants and Torments

A unit can only mutate once per turning point.

So assuming that it is a Chaos Demagogue for a new map and event event, have it spawn with a massive amount of chaff, quite a few mutants... a certain amount of time passes and if there a mutants that are still around, they mutate into spawns, while you are having more chaff and more mutants being tossed at you.

In Vermintide 2, there is already a boss that you face that gets turned from a Chaos Warrior into a Chaos Spawn. I think they can go further with that in Dartide.

Sounds like fun to me and brings in a very interesting kill team model and mechanic into the game.

Shovel on veteran is crazy good now with the right blessings. I never liked it before but its' a great all-rounder. Probably my new go to melee for the vet. It pairs really well with the Columnus MK V Autogun, that thing is really fun to use. Not as crazy effective as the Plasma but fun none the less.
