Noob here, what are the best weapons for each class?

    No such thing after the latest patch. Just use what's fun. Everything is viable.

      Not OP, but is the game worth getting into? I heard it got kinda better after the class rework but the reviews are still "Mixed".

        It's definitely better after the rework and recent weapon balance changes. If you like horde shooters I'd say go for it, but maybe not for full price.

          Well hopefully I'll get a new computer before winter sales. I'll grab it then.

          yeah, there's also the problem of console players typically dragging down the experience
          >people using console with default turn speed
          >can barely turn around fast enough to do anything
          >in a game where your ass is constantly getting slapped by nurggers
          also i couldn't find it but there was this wojak tracing or something that had nurgle guys charging up an attack and hitting you in the back or some shit

            I didn't realize this game had crossplay

              That's the only way to get an actual lobby, because the game is beyond dead on Steam.

                Shame they've botched this game so badly. The aesthetics of the game do a good job of capturing the universe. I would have enjoyed a decent WH40k FPS.

                They rushed it out the door solely to sell cosmetics, because 40k drones will buy literally anything with their favorite branding attached to it.
                In two or three years we might actually get more classes, missions, and a decent upgrade system, but right now it's easy to get burned out, even if you're just casually playing a few rounds a day. There just isn't enough actual content to justify a $40 purchase, and the endgame experience is purposefully tedious and obtuse so it leaves you with a bad taste in your mouth.

                You found games fine without crossplay. The game wasn't fortnite, but it had very playable numbers for a niche title.At least in Europe. Maybe if you live in the upside down you were fucked but then aren't they always.

                Damnation was impossible to matchmake before crossplay, you would literally get put in a lobby with three bots.

                I guess I sometimes had to wait a few minutes, true. Fair enough.

            Uninstall and try again in a year or two.

            The game is extremely easy after the last patch so it doesn’t matter.

        The gameplay is amazing and it really rewards you the better you get.
        The new update also added a ton of build variety to experiment with to keep things fresh.
        In the meantime the premium cosmetic store is atrocious. Only made to catch whales.
        And the item progression/crafting resource economy is also still very much garbage and that's after several improvements.
        Meanwhile Fatshark is doing Fatshark things, rolling out new content at a glacial pace and for everything they add they break several unrelated things.
        But actually playing the game is amazing. When you're in a mission the game is hard to beat. So it gives alot of conflicting emotions to people. Whether all the surrounding bullshit puts you off or not is entirely subjective. If you come for the loot, you'll leave in disgust. If you come to click heretics, you'll be satisfied.

        One last thing: Move up in difficulty as fast as you can manage. Occasionally someone bounces off these games because the lower difficulties are kind of mindless. But that's basically user error.

        Psyker: voidstrike staff and Illisi force sword
        Zealot: Thunder hammer and thunder hammer (you shouldn't be using your ranged weapon as zealot)
        Ogryn: anything, you're so big it doesn't matter
        Veteran: One of the fast swinging swords to deal with hordes, and any of the slower-firing high-damage weapons (plasma, hellbore lasgun, bolter, Agrippina autogun, etc) to deal with specials and shooters

        core gameplay is extremely fun, but there's a dearth of content (16 levels across 4 maps on repeat forever, lots of missing weapons, most of the cosmetics are paypig exclusive) and network connectivity is a constant pain in the ass

          1. To ask

          Not OP, but is the game worth getting into? I heard it got kinda better after the class rework but the reviews are still "Mixed".

          2. Ok what's locked. Cosmetics? Nothing vital I pray.
          3. Rude
          4. Normally yeah I don't care for cheevos.

            There's three types of cosmetics: Premium, purchasable with in-game currency and unlockable through achievements. The ones purchasable with in-game currency are recolors of those unlockable ones that are hardest to get. So unless you had to just have that one cosmetic in that exact color there's no reason to go through the old, dumb achievements they specifically filed away in a separate folder.
            They added new cosmetics that are much more natural to fulfill that give you a line of cosmetics you cannot purchase with premium or in-game money.

            If you just want to play a generic soldier green army man Cadian, then you have nothing to fear. If you wanted to do something special, like become a Kasrkin, or Krieger, or Steel Legion, or Necromundan, or any such alternate costume, you have to fork out the $$$. Same applies for the rest of the classes more or less.

                PREMIUM cosmetic (costs more cash and time to make apparently than normal ones) BTW.

    I like plasma on vet, been using it since launch and it's only gotten better! You don't even horribly melt your hp anymore when using it!

    I finished maxing out Veteran and Zealot, convince me to do it again for Ogryn and Psyker

    Dunno as I'm fairly new myself, but on Veteran I've been enjoying the Power Sword mk VI and the plasma gun. The plasma gun is definitely too strong right now, but it's satisfying when killing multiple elites that are lined up.

    Anything you don't suck with item level 370-380. Weapons are constantly being buffed and rarely nerfed. You suck because you suck in general. You don't dodge, block and slide when you should.
