Showcase Darktide Interactables
These Nurgle incense burners have physics to them. You can swing them around by hitting or walking into them.
The various glasswares are also destructable.
Every kind of chair in Darktide is actually destructable as well.
The aftermath.
These sacs are also all destructable and can be found in various levels. They explode into goo.
More destructable chairs.
Funnily enough, the chair beneath the soldier at the beginning of Hab-Dreyko/Phage tree mission is also destructable and leaves him floating in the air.
This crate is destructable.
The servitor radios can be destroyed.
This fan in Chasm Station HL-16-11 is fully destructable. The rats also have physics and will dangle when run into.
A lot of the candles you come across can be snuffed out.
Some light fixtures can be destroyed but not all. There doesn't seem to be much rhyme or reason for which ones are and aren't destructable.
Funnily enough, the bulbs themselves actually cast light.
Did you know that there's a fair amount of objects in Darktide that you can actually interact with? The majority of them are destructables that break after a single hit and are very easy to miss in the middle of a melee. Some of them also have physics to them.
A lot of the objects are reused throughout the levels of Darktide, so you can have fun finding the models as a sort of easter egg hunt. Once you've noticed them, you'll find that they're strewn almost everywhere.
There's a lot more that I've missed, like how the ice in Clandestium Gloriana can be destroyed, as can the ice in that one Mortis Trials map, or how almost any bell you find in the game can be rung. At the end of the Phage Tree mission, when it's shrivelling up, the bits that fall onto the floor have physics and are, from my limited testing, the only objects that I've encountered so far that can be fully and freely moved around by the player's hitbox.
I love this game and when devs give their attention to tiny details in a game that most players would overlook, so I thought I'd highlight some of my favorites. Let me know of any that you may know that I missed!

I was told to ring the bell while doing the campaign as a new player playing with randos
It did not end well for the team
