Foot Knight Greathammer Build - Cataclysm True Solo | Vermintide 2

[@Don_Glover]

Yooooo! Ty for this, daddy Sandman, I needed it

[@Don_Glover]

So for Grat Hammer I have to be patient and if I pair it with the blunderbuss I have Stagger Knight that is very durable. You came through for us hammer newbies and I thank you for it. PS: that hook at 18:20 had a grudge on that poor door

[@ItzSandman]

No problem :) Keep in mind that there's lots of ways to play the game and there are not really any definitive setups that are necessary in the base game until you start playing extreme modded difficulties like cata3+ dwons. That being said this is just my setup for this particular run and there's lots of room for customization on your end to use whatever you're comfortable with. Keep practicing and happy bonking!

"Men of the empire big and small look apon kruber as he makes the packsworn fall he leaves nothing left purging there vile banners full of might and heft as he leads with his hammer but never dread even if tho art a lowly conscript for it Is said that sigmar blesses those that are worn and sick so bring his wrath both far and wide so that one day we expunge this vermintide!" Imperial tavern bard:

[@HeartbeatKnight]

It feels more grimdark when you imagine this scenario as Kruber is the only one alive from the rest of the team and he has gone schizophrenic, talking to himself all along the mission thinking his old team is still alive. Poor old Kruber

18:26 Wow, that hook rat really didn't like that door

[@maximum9977]

14:37. Yes guys. Thats why even top tier players always use Barskin.

Amazing content brother, keep it up!

[@ZeDoctorful]

Yooo shit! We getting back to back content? Hell yeah!!

[@ItzSandman]

Just a few games I managed to complete while recording footage for the Foot Knight experience vid. I've got a couple more runs to upload and then I'm going to be turning my focus to making either an 'experience' type vid for The Captain Series event I'm partaking in or I'll be deviating a bit and making a video around an Ultra-nightmare run for DOOM 2016 that I'm close to completing. I don't mean for the channel to focus on Vermintide content exclusively and I want to expand my video editing and Blender animation knowledge to be able to apply them to a wide variety of titles. After these solo run uploads, expect a gap until the next major upload while I continue to educate myself in order to improve the quality of my vids. Stay tuned :)

[@ZeDoctorful]

@@ItzSandman Looking forward to it all the same!

[@TheNotoriousPaydayGang]

daddy sands making the blunderbussy a good weapon since 1100 IC

[@Ensrick]

Another great one. I definitely feel Foot Knight has fallen behind with tanks like Ironbreaker and Warrior Priest being so much more powerful, having both the ability to tank and put out high damage. They're OP but still, Foot Knight needs a little something besides being the Stagger King. I only played Foot Knight when I was new to Cataclysm a few years ago because I could contribute by staggering enemies, and just survive. Now, he feels a bit stale to play, besides a few unique builds. The few cata solos I've completed were usually with higher damage output careers that could also stagger like Warrior Priest, Engineer, Mercenary, Ranger Vet, Ironbreaker, Huntsman, and Slayer. Besides that it's the broken stuff like Duckfoot Bounty Hunter.

[@cynco484]

Do you have a good all around foot knight build that has survivability, cc, boss killing capabilities and can solo on cataclysm?

[@maximum9977]

Hello. What is the point of +power from stagger elires, does it give any breakpoints?

[@ItzSandman]

It's mainly used in this setup as a damage boost. You could realistically run attack speed on push if that's more to your liking. I just used +power on stagger vs elites here because it's super easy to trigger with 2h hammer, it provides greater damage per heavy swing on mixed hordes and because i felt I didn't need the extra attack speed from crowd clearer because I would have bull of ostland and swift slaying up most of the time anyway. It also helps with taking out packmasters with a single Blunderbuss shot due to the power bonus applying to ranged as well, increasing that specific breakpoint while it's active. It's non-essential, but i prefer it over crowd clearer here.

[@maximum9977]

@@ItzSandman yea its make a sense

[@ArtoriasFTW]

Well done

[@Baeur]

How do you pick the maps you wanna run on?

[@ItzSandman]

I try to predict how each series of runs will go by matching my setup to the map as much as possible. For example, if I'm running a low mobility/close range setup then I probably don't want to play Against the Grain because of the wide open areas on that map that require more movement and range. I would instead choose this map because of its more condensed areas that enable me to utilize the strengths of the build more effectively. I hope that's a good enough explanation lol :)

[@Baeur]

@@ItzSandman that makes sense.

[@majortom92]

Wow. Can u explain how to charge in one place please?

[@ItzSandman]

You just immediately cancel your dash by tapping block right after activating it. It's very good for a lot of situations ranging from creating some breathing room during intense engagements, forcing every enemy in front of you into a stagger 2 state for increased damage (hence why mainstay is such a good stagger talent for Foot Knight) and knocking enemies off of ledges. Foot Knight's ability is extremely versatile and has a ton of uses when it's utilized well.
