@@vanguze it created an initial money sink, but very soon it will turn into nothing to spend money on. Initially you can spend money for grey/green weapons to level mastery faster, but if you play a lot you will level it fast anyway. Then you spend Empowering weapons, but its very easy to get perfect weapons now, since now you need to look only at max stats and nothing else, and you don't need multiple copies since you can change marks.
@@otsca7146 eyyy, i am about to turn 26. I am not that old yet 🤣🤣🤣. That game was legendary. Same as star wars bounty hunters. The good old days. Before the dark times, before the Kennedy heresy... 🤣.
I've got a lvl 130 Zealot and I've used a sword maybe once or twice. I saw your build, thought it was cool, then on the same day, a well spec'ed MkVI sword dropped in my inventory, which never happened before. So I tried it out. I'm not yet comfortable with the hit rhythm, but I've gotta say I've enjoyed it a lot. So thanks for that.
Hey man, great video as always you put me through enough knowledge to build my own classes build. I also interested to what mods that you use in your game, and if you don't mind sharing it with us
I've always preferred the Mk IX in the heavy swords tbh. Has the really nice overhead and a easy, non-stop cleaving combo you can use where it's just H>H>H.... after the OH with a much better arc. The Mk IVs second heavy does do more damage, but it's not really a big slicing cleave, more an upwards strike with a small amount of sideways swing.
hey, would u be able to do a video showcasing the mods you use? i and many others are coming back to darktide after the update and im curious what some of the ui and weapon mods are that you use. thanks.
I didnt stream this one, i recorded it after. Because im lazy and want to do it in one take, so i dont have to let it render in davinci 😂 Upload your video so i can farm it for content 👺

You can just check the damage yourself though. The damage of every attack in the chain is listed in the game. More important is to check which attacks there are in the chain. If you can't chain horizontal attacks against a horde consistently, you're gonna lose a ton of damage, even if the individual strikedown hits have more damage, but only against 1 enemy.
Straight up lying in the beginning of the video saying that other marks of the heavy sword deal less damage as strikedown heavies damage profile is identical among all of them. Mk 9 has vanguard heavies 2 and 3 and they, indeed, deal less damage but they are horizontal and much easier to hit heads exploiting Brutal Momentum for horde clear. Mk 7 has practically the same moveset as Mk 6, only heavies are reversed (uppercut -> overhead) though Mk 6 push attack deals less damage to flak enemies. So all swords are viable and there isn't the best one.
Damn that's crazy. I tried this build and the only thing it did is build in a VISCERAL hatred of the Mark 6 Heavy Sword. This thing is so unintuitive and slow to use, I don't see why people use it. What the fuck.
So idk if i missed it or you never used it but i wonder how or if you should use the special action I noticed you can potentially chain “thrust overheads” by doing the normal heavy, charging the second one and then animation cancelling it with the special You keep the stacks in the UI but i cant tell if it increases damage or is even practical…
I rarely use the tactical action on any weapon, since they cannot be comboed and are usually very specific-use-case. On my limited testing with it and the heavy sword, it is kind of a crap move, i think it’s supposed to offer extra armor pen? But not any damage because its not a heavy attack.
@@MisterEtide figures, ive tried it and been pretty disappointed even when doing the needlessly complicated combo to get the thrust combo. Thanks for the build though, great fun!
Keep these Guides coming man! They are super helpful! :D
Thanks, will do!

Old ass. But yeah i do find myself commonly referring to medicae as bacta.

Love following along with you and trying the builds out.
Is that Maliwan Takedown music that i heard?

Build is awesome, I got my Auric Exemplar title thanks to it.
Is that boltgun cosmetic a cash shop item?
Make more of these please.
how do you see the health bars of the enemies?
Make a hammer build please
Indeed
I gotta level up my other classes. All of your builds look so fun but my only level 30 class is the veteran 😓
What mod do you use to show your weapons on your back?
weapon customization, its on nexus mods
"Extended Weapon Customization" to be exact
Check my new vid for a full tutorial

How is the MK VI doing 40% more damage than MK IX? This part confused me, because everyone always says that IX is the best?
IX has the better attack pattern. Less diagonal and more horizontal
