Warhammer 40,000: Darktide<\/em> eliminates the scripted heroes of Warhammer: Vermintide 2<\/em> <\/em>and replaces them with player-created characters, allowing the player to choose their own origin, personality, and class. It makes for some fantastic barks and witty banter, but it also gives players the welcome option to double up on useful roles instead of forcing each party member to be unique.<\/p>\n While it’s delightful to spend time with most of these characters, it’s tough to get a sense of how they actually play without taking them into some higher-level matches and unlocking their signature arsenals. Based on developer Fatshark’s previous work, it’s safe to expect further balance changes to come down the line, as well as new classes and archetypes as eventual DLC. But for now, here’s how the class roster stacks up in darktide<\/em>‘s launch period.<\/p>\n The Veteran is a member of the Imperial Guard, cast down to prisoner status and freed only due to the luck of being in the right place at the right time. Don’t feel too bad for the Veteran, because they currently stand at the top of the pile of Rejects. Their core fantasy is very simple to explain and comprehend: They’re real<\/em> good horse gun. Right now, they’re good at everything else too.<\/p>\n The chainsword is a powerful melee tool for going through hordes of baddies like a knife through butter, and of course, the Veteran also has access to an arsenal of ranged weaponry. Their combat stance highlights special enemies, which makes them adept at taking out priority targets like Poxbursters or Scab Snipers. While, unlike the damage-dealing Psyker, they require a lot of ammunition, they’re also much less of a glass cannon than their comrade. Right now, the Veteran is just good at everything, and a reliable pick at all levels of play.<\/p>\nVeteran: Sharpshooter<\/strong><\/h2>\n
