"Sure it overheats like hell and has one in ten chances of turning you into a puddle of molten slag. But by the God Emperor flash-frying heretics has never been so fun!" - Some Guardsman with a Plasma Gun

In the TTRPGs its one of the few weapons a normal human can wield that gives a chance at killing space marines. And hey, it only overheats and kills you on a roll of 91+!

Never knew that "annihilating heretics to the tune of Frozen" was something I wanted so much

Jumping off the ledge at rhe start and sort of floating down like a PRINCESS was a thing of pure beauty

It'll be interesting to see how they integrate the melta gun, since this is basically the role I was expecting it to fulfil (except shorter range).

in the "long" term, I expect that elites like Crushers and Bulwarks will get buffed up again to a point where they dont feel so squishy. Crushers can 1 hit kill you which is great, but they're absurdly easy to kill right now, especially for elite, heavily armored Ogryns of all things. If/when that happens, that should open up the role of true armored killer again (which Plasma should be good at, dont get me wrong). But for Melta, I just picture very short range, pure ap, massive damage, low ammo. Certainly not a weapon that can press F and clear a room of shooters from range, but one that can absolutely melt high hp enemies and bosses

I mean, on the TT the plasma is more like a grenade launcher. it used to be template and is now high damage single hit. My expectation of the melter is kind of a single target flamethrower. kinda like a blowtorch, just going ssssssss

Well what do know... just finished playing a couple of awesome auric maelstorm games with the plasma gun, and I see a notification of a new video of Indy playing with it. Plasma rifle feels so nice especially seeing the kill feed of all the elites and specials killed when they line up nicely

This is my rifle, this is my gun. This is a plasma, the enemy rolled a nat 1

Power sword and Plasma gun : That's an expensive Inquisitorial operator there. At least 25 points on tabletop

*matter just existing* Plasma Gun: "And I took that personally."

Super funny I just started my vet varlet. I automatically was drawn to plasma gun power sword combo . Glad to see someone else running it and getting the word out

yes ! a good way to show the build thanks man !

Been trying for weeks to try and get a good Plasma Gun for my Vet and no luck yet. This is awesome!

From a lvl ~630+ vet that carries auric maelstroms: With T4 maniac & Specialist, 80 dmg&stopping power, taking the full middle tree with ammo aura and 3x 5% ranged damage nodes on the left side, you can get the breakpoints for uncharged bodyshot on flamers and all specials, 2 shot muties. Elites still need headshot or ult dmg buff up, but being able to uncharged bodyshot all the specials also greatly improves ammo efficiency and quickswap shoot potential. Also you don't need stance with this setup, it doesn't provide any significant breakpoint improvements and voice of command is insanely stupid broken OP at the moment, especially with the 50% toughness damage reduction.

@milkandcookiesTW

7 ай бұрын

nice info about the breakpoints thanks! Voice of Command is for sure stupid good atm. There's still plenty of reason to Stance though, even if you believe VoC is better. Ton of situations in this vid where I was able to kill 10+ elites/specials and 30+ shooters before they could become a threat, simply because of how much info it gives when you enter a new area. 14:46 and 18:13 are good examples

You just had to go and make the most convincing video on making me use the Plasma gun well done it worked

Plasma has always been my favorite ranged weapon in the game, but now... I just don't play without it, it's so much fun.

Love the slowmo intro of John Cadia having a good time! xD

I think you found the golden goose of plasma guns. I'm not sure if we'll see another one like this lol

Will you cover the Indignatus Crusher? Its sheer survivability is incredible. Ive legit never lost a match while using it, because it crowd-controls basically everything, rending any former serious threat harmless. Looking forward to your coverage🔥

i love your darktide videos!

Nice vid! Great example of the recent damnation random queue teammate skill too. lol. I've now had 2 different games since patch 13 in which someone aggros a Daemonhost and then leaves :,) Still, worth it considering the skill trees and weapon buffs. Game is a blast and I'm looking forward to more updates.

My Plasma Vet build stacks all the reload speed modifiers, now reloading it is faster than venting it 💀

Impeccable intro man

Smiting heretics with the power of the sun has never felt better.

im still learning how to set up classes and such and havent tried this gun yet. ill have to give it a try when i get my veteran maxed out

Great vid, what song did you use for the montage? sounds epic

I really wish I had something to play this game on it looks like so much fun

Managed to get a tier4 Get's Hot on one one with near max stats all around. Was a very fun surprise.

Bro "it shoots through Ogryn players" was all you had to say. Sold.

That intro was a work of art, hahaha

I want another vriant of the Plasma gun. One, that does less dmg but big AOE on impact. And i want the projectile to be more visible. I love the guns as it is here in Darktide but not seeing the trail always makes me sad. A Pistol would also be cool.

Those third person sequences looked pretty good, 3rd person could hold up at least for small characters

0:35-1:39 This is what the guard shows new recruits.

the new update is great, gonna respect into toughness generation over reload speed for heat venting after this, and probably grind another plasma gun to eek out a different perk. Been using the gun for months and all of the sudden I started blendering hoardes of elites one day

What perks and buffs do you look out for? New to darktide and have fallen head over heels in love with the plasma gun.

Need to figure out how the new Veteran keystones effect my plasma build, I love this blasted thing, even if it does try and melt my hands off when I reload!

Indi when you using shock maul power it up while dodging side to side and you can set up heavy attacks in the process. Left right left right, dodge dodge dodge, power power power. Each hit will work like a home running a school bus…

I hope they add in a hotshot lasgun (maybe it regens ammo but has low capacity?) Or a long las or a melta. Plasma pistol would be cool too since some commissars use it, or like a bolt pistol maybe

@vahlen5281

6 ай бұрын

Hotshot should have a high ammo pool and damage, but some form of overheating mechanic and high recoil to balance it out. As for the boltpistol, it's already in the game files. Plasma pistols are already in the game as well (used by the enemy captains), so it shouldn't be impossible that we get a playable version of it.

Couple of Power Maul Ogryns in that match, interesting. As Ogryn main it's probably my least used melee.

Have had demon hostes get aggroed a couple times in weird situations, might be something buggy going on with them.

Hey I have a little interesting thing for you, if you put a point into Rending Strikes and a point into Ranged Damage boost +5% right before the Deadshot keystone, and have +25% flak damage on your plasma, You will deal 1405 flak damage, which is exactly as much as you need to one shot body shot Gunners :D. I use 80% damage plasma with volatile and flak armour 25% Maniac 25% those two perks above plus sniper and all that jazz and I can 1 shot bodyshot: Both Gunners All specialists except Dog and Tox Flamer (survives with like 15hp which is infuriating :D) Both types of shotgunners Mauler is one shot + one charged shot Crusher is one charged shot + either one head shot or 2 body shots Bulwark one body shot to open shield and one charged shot to kill. Reaper is one Charged shot + one body shot - unless specified like with the crusher these are all body shots. It is important to say that Green Gunners have parts of their bodies like hands and their right leg exposed and count as unarmoured so dont hit them there :D

2:52 it looks like you are hitting several times while the power sword is loaded up, mine always goes out after one strike, what am i doing wrong?

I feel that one run with the team just keeps throwing. Lvl 30s yet might as well be team from Malice. There’s just no saving the run when there’s only so much you can do

Plasma was already my favorite gun before buffs but now it's hilarious. It's even better with the crosshair mod so you can replace that crappy crosshair.

Ammo pickups and management is the weakpoint of the plasma and always was. It's not enough to keep it down though, not after this patch esp with survivalist.

How are you feeling about Total War and CA after all thats been going on lately? You usually have a more measured and less drastic opinion on things so Im curious.

My problem with getting clutches like this is that, even when I'm not on ogryn, if someone goes down I suddenly develop the most severe case of Savior Complex ever documented in a gamer.

Is that a Two Steps from Hell track at the start? I don't know which one but it sounds like their work.

Can't remember the name of the talent, but it's towards the bottom of the middle tree. Grants 25% toughness on special or elite kill and another 25% over a few seconds (I think 5 seconds?). It can stack multiple times. There's also one for toughness regen while "x" amount of meters away from enemies.
