Question What do you think about Foot Knight?

I’d like to focus on one career for each character. I really love Kruber, and I’m genuinely torn between the Grail Knight and the Foot Knight. I was wondering what more experienced players think of the Foot Knight as a career.

Gameplay Guide Chaos Wastes Weekly 20 JUL 2026- Specials/Twins and Bombs/Mirth

19 Upvotes

Fun weekly that provides a good challenge. Get a special sniper or two

Curses

Specials spawn into elites here on death with twins, so there are a lot more enemies than usual.

Curse Description Extra Info Notes
More Specials Increases the maximum number of specials that can be active at the same time. Double the max special count (+100%) Yeah get a special sniper
Twin Blight Enemies have a chance to be reborn as smaller enemies upon death. 25% chance to split into two weaker enemies Various 'on kill' effects only trigger for host, not client, with twin split

Boons

I have a boon guide here for all chaos wastes boons. One extremely powerful boon, one good boon that can backfire, and a troll boon. Strategy: get shard strike weapon trait and everything dies. In terms of boons, bomb radius boons will save the team from friendly fire, and the AoE damage on ult boons are a good way to proc Mirth. You pretty much have all the offensive boons you'll need here, so grab some damage reduction and health

Boon Description Extra Info Thoughts Tier
Ranald's Explosive Surprise When you trigger a barrel explosion, the barrel spawns smaller barrels. These explode after a short time. Spawn 4 mini barrels, they have the same damage and explosion radius as normal barrels. (Victor note: boons that disable bomb friendly fire also prevent barrel FF) Hilarious way of trolling your team, and that's about it. There aren't enough barrels for this to be effective vs enemies, unless you are in the Mine or Gorge events F
Dazh's Peculiar Mirth After killing an elite with a melee attack the next enemy you kill will explode. Explosion triggers with bombs and effects such as shard strike or smite. Doesn't matter what kills the next enemy as long as you kill it This boon is a key part of the Warrior Priest Death Field. It can literally kill dozens of elites at once under the right conditions. Great boon and an insane DPS boost. Just get this, it's amazing. S
Sigmar's Comet Throwing a bomb throws one additional bomb (of the same type). Works with Morgs Strong boon, good DPS increase. Be careful you don't kill teammates. B

Reward

Recruit Veteran Champ Legend Cataclysm
5000xp Sword of Bitter Dreams 2x Emperor's Vault 1 Red Dust Pain, suffering, and scoreboards

Careers

Grail Knight, slayer, WP, melee focused careers have a nice buff from Mirth. Just have one or two special snipers if you have more than one melee career.

Character Career Special Notes
Wutelgi Sister of the Thorn Staff lift is invaluable here
Wutelgi Waystalker Good for special sniping with her ult and bow but SoTT is the better choice
Wutelgi Handmaiden --
Wutelgi Shade Can do some nice chain kills with shade, but I would personally choose SoTT
Sienna Battle Wiz For all wizard careers, unless the last patch or so changed anything the kill needs to be with melee not burn damage. So flame sword, etc is not as useful this week
Sienna Pyromancer --
Sienna Unchained --
Sienna Necromancer Soulstealer necro would be my pick, good for special sniping and great melee synergy with reaping talent and Mirth
Kruber Merc Good pick due to his melee bonuses
Kruber Homeless Tree Man --
Kruber Feet Knight It's Hero Time is great to have with +specials
Kruber Grail Knight His side sweep ult triggers Mirth and will do a ton of DPS
Bardin Ranger Vet --
Bardin Ironbreaker --
Bardin Slayer Melee focused weekly, Slayer is your guy
Bardin OE --
Saltzpyre Witch Hunter Captain Crit kills also proc Mirth. Good choice but Warrior Priest is far stronger here
Saltzpyre Bounty Hunter Can use blessed shots after a melee kill, but there is no mechanical reason to use Bounty Hunter here at all, outside of personal preference. He's simply lacking in CW
Saltzpyre Zealot Good class for this, grab a crossbow for specials
Saltzpyre Warrior Priest He has a very strong build with empowered smites and Mirth. I would basically gamble for shard strike, as smite procs off of shard strike damage, giving him an absurdly high kill rate. And the warrior priest death field is complete

Some Highlights From Last Week

I had a few things I wanted to clip but haven't had the energy- my friend Bobz had a real cool engi run. I'll need to get to sorting through my backlog at some point. We also didn't beat the weekly this week as we ran short on time, but came close!

Every Chaos Warrior Ever

Kruber gets slapped

Fun weekly that is melee focused but also requires the team to be capable of handling a ton of specials. Melee heavy careers get a nice bonus here, but you will also do well with careers that focus more on ranaged damage for specials. This is a well balanced weekly

Question How do you use voice chat on handheld?

3 Upvotes

Hello guys! I'm new to vt2 so I need a little help. I'm using Lenovo legion go handheld. I see a lot of friendly people who are ready to communicate but text chat is not an option for me. I would like to use voice chat from tine to time, but there is no such option for push to talk button as binding to controller layout. Is there a way to use push to talk on controller?

I would like to avoid always on setting

Upd: I used Lenovo Legion app to map g key onto macros button

Gameplay is solo queue really unplayable?

0 Upvotes

got back to game. trying get some games done. in few days I tried to finish at least one legend or cata, but what the hell is happening in my lobbies. 5 lvls, guys who are solo charging into 5 chaos warriors, is this game filled with ai bots or should I give up solo queue?

it's not frustration, i am just amazed how rarely I am getting someone decent, and legend it's really not that hard...

or my MMR is just too low and I have to get through?

collective 10h of playing, finished: none. it's not how it should be. I don't want play champion or lower, because I can do it solo with 3 bots...

They missed an "L" in "Kerillian" on this 5th lvl talent for SotT. Probably because she took it.

Question About the missions and the various campaigns

8 Upvotes

Is there a way to play a campaign from the first mission/map up to the last?

Back when my PC worked and I played the game I thought every mission was just randomly selected based on... something, since that's what my experience was, but now I'm wondering if there is a way to play the missions in order, if there actually is an order to it, and I just missed it or if it really is just randomly picked.

If this is a dumb question, just bare with me, I only have around 6 hours on V2 and I didn't get to learn much in those hours, other than the basics and one trick with a sword that made me slightly faster.


r/Vermintide 3d ago

Umgak I'll show you a preview of how the video is coming out (but it's intentionally without music, it's ugly from the phone so as not to ruin the surprise too much šŸ˜‚šŸ‘Œ) because I'm getting old at doing it and I want to show something hahaha

Discussion This may be old news, but I started playing VT2 again after a years long hiatus, and I noticed that the rats hit the 67 when they burn to death.

Issue/Bugs PC keeps crashing playing Vermintide 2

6 Upvotes

What the title says.
I've a PC with the following specs:
AMD Ryzen 8 7800X3D
AMD Radeon 7800XT (Nitro from Sapphire)
G.SKILL Trident Z5 Neo 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5-6000MHz
Windows 11 (updated)

I am almost certain this is not a PC related issue, as it is happening only on Vermintide 2.
Also, when stress testing the CPU, it rarely goes up to 65deg as I have a nice 360AIO to cool it.
The GPU hotspot goes to 90 if I keep it running Furmark for a while, but the core temp is a couple degrees lower.
I already tried different GPU drivers, reinstalling them using DDU.
I have tried uninstalling the game as well.
I've ran the windows tools to check for missing or corrupted files.
The only thing I have not yet done would be to re-install windows, but I am not too keen on doing.

Has anyone faced this issue before? Event viewer is hardly any help. I've seen that sometimes it is tied to the AC, but other times it does not show up in the logs.
Any help would be welcome.

Thank you in advance.

Gameplay Me and my bots having fun on Champion (New player)

I've been playing it's been a week or so, tried to make some friends start with me but they already dropped, so here I am trying to finish the main campaing on champion with bots so I can get a cool outfit for my Elf!
It's funny but I enjoy playing with bots more than with random people, 90% of the time it's a level 35 that will rush ahead while I just want to take my time and enjoy the maps while I get familiarized with it.

If I will be playing private games with my friends, will I receive Versus currency or do they awarded only for playing "online"?

Discussion Is it really necessary to lose leftover coins from previous expedition for "leaving" a Chaos Wastes expedition?

28 Upvotes

I get the "punishment" aspect of just leaving mid-expedition, but in practice, about 95% of the time I lose those coins it's because of a server issue (I'm assuming) or the host leaving. Often times happening either as I'm still loading in, or barely starting the expedition.

Sure, it's not a ton of coins to start with, but it's pretty annoying to constantly start back at 0. Also I'm not sure it's really much of a deterrent for just regular leavers for the amount of times it's just punishing people who don't do that.

Maybe there's some sort of alternative solution?
