Darktide Veteran | Melee/Grenadier Shout Veteran Trivializes Heavy Metal Auric Maelstrom C-I-VI

0:15 : Build
1:25 : Combat Start
36:00 : Scoreboard (Almost a No Damage Run)
I've made yet another Mk6 Power Sword and it might be my final one ever for Melee-focused Vet Builds. I can afford to only run +Unyielding for damage thanks to talents providing enough base melee damage that this weapon can still 2 shot Crushers with its push attack combo without Carapace bonuses or Slaughterer stacks.
Normally I would run Weapons Specialist to make the most of the Revolver for the non-melee nuisances that show up in this particular Maelstrom condition but I wanted to fool around so I dropped the Keystone for more grenade talents.
If you're wondering how I have different sights on my guns, skins on weapons you haven't seen before or weapons on mine and others' backs it's from the Extended Weapon Customization mod that's available on NexusMods in the Darktide Section.

The stab-overhead power sword combo is very satisfying. GG. I run a similar vet class with a little more invested into the grenadier role: Krak grenades, Grenade Tinkerer (more damage), Demo Stockpile (timed grenade recharge), Demo Team (chance to earn grenade on elite kill), and Grenadier (+1 grenade capacity). Grenadier vet builds are a ton of fun and a great way to clear bulwarks when running kraks. The Mk. VI power sword is a strong pairing, as your video shows.

Great skills!

I have a grenadier build with grenadier demo team and field improv ive been running and its a ton of fun but it seems like at times the krak grenade is inconsistent due to terrain or pathing. Ive thrown it at crushers in my face for it to go off behind or how about at 4 bulwarks swarming an ogryn and only got a single kill lol

[@GrasshopperKelly]

Well the last bit makes sense, it only does one attack with D6 wounds. So it’ll only hit one opponent in a unit xD

[@infrared6973]

@@GrasshopperKelly grenadier expands the radius and the damage and should give more double kills but its inconsistent. He was trapped in a corner with 4 bulwarks on him and it only killed one. Also you can throw it at a boss and it just misses somehow sometimes.

@@infrared6973 it was a tabletop joke… Also, the grenade missing is pretty table accurate (excuse the pun) too xD
