Zealot Zerg Rush Havoc 40 | Darktide

You forget that your loadout includes something most of us don't have: friendship

Getting a 4stack together and into coms alone makes a huge difference.

[@Flannel-Channel8837]

What i like most about havoc is the fact that it forces people to lock in and actually strategize. I can not tell you how many times games have been completely lost because allies on the strike team were off doing their own thing worried more about who gets to kill more elites so they can have their name pop up on the feed. And im not condemning them. Doing so would be hypocritical. I do that all the time when playing causally. Its a game after all. But dear god there is nothing like the feeling when your team locks in ,and y'all synergize perfectly. And with havoc that happens throughout the mission. Even without a mic. We dont even really need to communicate we all know our roles and how to play them perfectly. Its sooo satisfying. Another thing is competency. In casual I always have to be looking back and forth between objective/enemies and my allies to make sure they arent lollygagging. But not in havoc. I dont have to stress over my teammates even if they're out of coherency cuz i know they can take care of themselves. Havoc is by far my favourite update aside from the class overhaul.

[@Reginald-sc9tk]

Its what I like about havoc too. Playing a 4stack into havoc is very fun.

[@williejackson6905]

Well just make sure you come across the right teammates because I been in that same shit for the longest son 👌🏾 so you ain't the only one who come across people acting or just the game Dead as Fuck🤷🏾‍♂️

[@Reginald-sc9tk]

@@williejackson6905 I didn't have too much trouble pugging from 25-30. Been playing with friends the rest of the way (back) to 40 though.

[@combine0069]

thats kinda why i really like the way shooters are in havoc. if you arent paying attention, you die quickly, but if you are paying attention and coordinate with a team, then entire rooms of shooters can be occupied really easily. in a good stack, you only need to tell them when to start diving ranged, not who they should be diving. you just know that if you can occupy gunners, the other people on your team will occupy different gunners and every single one will be dead or engaged in melee. i dont think the mode is particularly hard, but i do find it engaging because if you arent engaged you melt super fast. in a stack, i still have to focus to not die in havoc 40 but in a i-ii-v-e-g, i can pay no attention to the game, not be punished for it, and itll still be a walk in the park if i play with the same people.

[@zambler12]

I see one bring a crusher. Seems to still be good, used it with my same support chorus build without duelist and still getting juicy h1 one shots. Havoc still feels like everything can be doable, just needs everyone on their 'role' (frontlining, elites, specials, etcs)

[@azca.]

I beat havoc 40 with two psykers and two zealots. Also I know ogryn can beat it because I played with one. Teamplay and not going down are the most important factors imo

[@ЛеонардБолотов]

My favorite auric maelstorm missions were 4 zealots ones Even though it felt increadibly difficult, the constant combat and feats of rage, prayer and deception did carry us through

[@Xariann]

I don't dispute meta loadouts can make things easier, but this game's skill expression is such that if the meta loadout is something you are not comfortable running, you will just do worse. Of course you can try to learn how to play certain loadouts, but you still have people who will gravitate towards certain things and I think playing to your strength trumps most things.

[@omega_omi4847]

Played my first two havok matches last night, both successful, and it's SO FUN, intense but fun, best believe I was glued to my team 😂 it takes one bad situation, and you could be downed. Fire on the ground, a few to many shooters, and your health will be gone before you can say "For Atoma" 😂❤

[@chungusbooper]

1:56 Morningstar Reject invents heretic polo.

[@primedestroyers2170]

only on 36 so far but i have to say there were so few shooters in this mission. If you replaced all the ragers you saw this mission with gunners and reapers you would have had my average game in the 30s

[@Reginald-sc9tk]

We've experienced that too. The ogryn game i clipped wasn't a win but it was melee only and every room was oops all gunners. So its still viable.

[@yvng-stroke]

I was screaming for you to use ur knives at the beginning with all the ragers

[@Reginald-sc9tk]

I dont think knives in havoc have the 1shot headshot breakpoint anymore.

[@PillowOfEvil]

The entire build doesn't matter if you're not playing with a completely coherent and communicating team. Throw in two idiots and you might never make it past 30, no matter what you have.

[@Reginald-sc9tk]

I mean...jsat and emorist have already duo'd a havoc 40 so I think they could manage. Maybe not me though.

[@PillowOfEvil]

@Reginald-sc9tk Well yes. Not everyone has a billion hours of gameplay or 666 game iq.

[@sorina9130]

Of course its possible theres also methods to get it done obviously more effectively and more of a guaranteed way of clear even if skill or whatever isnt there to each there own good for you

[@Reginald-sc9tk]

Yes, like I said, there's a meta.

[@sorina9130]

@Reginald-sc9tk is it meta of you have map knowledge know the weapons basically have knowledge of the game and know your weapons etc? There isn't a meta of you don't have any of that and from my experience most of the weapons are great but if you don't know how to fight multiple crushers duelling sword is useless dunno why you sounded slightly salty in beginning when you were talking about or bragging or something i think it's funny when people talk about a meta in the game the game is made easier when you are playing with people you're used too and know what they can do etc as well maybe I should e worded it better but there isn't any setup that is going to just carry you through havoc

[@drunkpandalol3718]

(Im kind of a noob at this game. About 150 hours). I really love the thunder hammer. Been using a 1 shot boss build but it is terrible in havoc 25+ so i did some looking through the skill tree and ended up using the same skill tree loadout as you but with the crucis.

@@Orvect well 2 things 1. I decided to run my game in default settings so that the experience is more uniform for the common player 2. I picked up a qualiyt 2560x1440 monitor and displaced my atyical 3440x1440 monitor so my upload standards would look better for the average viewer (no black bars). I do miss my widescreen sometimes. But a man without commitments may as well not be one.

[@thepunisherxxx6804]

I don't like how ammo is so limited. Most of this video was you using the sword endlessly. To me that's not fun. If there are going to be more enemies there should be more ammo. Its such a cheap and unfun way to increase difficulty. They tried to do that in Space Marine 2 and everyone complained and it was brought in line. Its not the same game but the principle still applies. Artificial scarcity as a difficulty scaling mechanic ain't it.

[@Reginald-sc9tk]

I dont like it either but zealot is a melee class so it didn't matter here anyway.

[@sorina9130]

Ammo would trivialize it so no it's meant to be that way for a reason just be smarter or play ammo vet

[@thepunisherxxx6804]

@@sorina9130 I don't think it would "trivialize" it, that's a really strong insinuation. Its annoying to funnel ammo to one person/class. The fun of darktide is in the balance of both guns and melee (less so for zealot as its been said). Scale up the ammo, scale up the challenge to meet it. Scarcity for resources has NEVER been a fun challenge in gaming. Its always met with pushback for good reason. Its a lazy uncreative way to add "challenge". The key to a fun challenging game is striking that balance where its still fun and you want to come back for more. As it is now Havoc is one and done for me, and a lot of people. If that's what they wanted ok, but seems like a very poor way to think about "endgame". They should get more wacky with the game, how about modifiers where its all horde unarmored, or tons of Ogryns or something. So many opportunities for fun.
