It's about time someone made the Standard Infantry Man's Primer, it might as well be me! Kidding aside, this is the largest video project I've done to date. We're looking at EVERY melee weapon available to the veteran class and evaluating their strengths and weakness, and what blessings and perks benefit each the most. In part two, we'll be looking at all of the ranged weapons and doing the same thing! Part three is going to be all about talents and build creation.
This is meant to be a reference that anyone can use for selecting their weapons, meaning if you know a better way to run a particular weapon, let me know and I'll try it out! If anyone gives me a truly outstanding perk/ blessing combination that wasn't included, I will update this guide to keep it as current as possible. I try and respond to every single comment, so let me know what you think about this monster sized Darktide weapons guide!
Polls for the channel will be up soon.
