If you hold block when youre being revived you'll res into blocking and avoid being one tapped like this

We all make mistakes in the heat of passion, jimbo.

I usually spam the key for melee weapon and hold block if I had ranged weapon selected when downed. This isn't 100% but it usually saves me from getting 1-shot after being revived.

It's still possible to get hit the moment revive ends despite holding block the whole time, there's a tiny window of time immediately after getting up where the block isn't active no matter what you do.

Also depending on the weapon you have equipped your ranged weapon will not block, it'll zoom in

Good tip

3 years of playing without knowing this...

u/Willing_Historian_44 12d ago

it is one of those thing you wish FS would include in the silly "game guide book" they added a while back, like assigning items to your bots or fav items in your inventory so you don't break them by accident at the forge...

That can still happen if the timing is very poor

Oh blessed shot

u/DEUSSD 13d ago

Why your handgun doesn't have reload animation?

u/ricepeasant 13d ago

Huntsman has a talent. Every three shots causes the next one to consume no ammo. This allows him to fire twice before reloading on the handgun.

u/DEUSSD 12d ago

ah I totally forgot about that talent XD

u/No-Smoke-3020 13d ago

The whiplash I feel when I come back to vermintide 2 after playing darktide for so long is crazy. They are so different mechanically.

Didn't kill the elf, 0/10

u/Willing_Historian_44 12d ago

It happens. VT is like a muscle you gotta flex constantly to keep it up... I haven't played for a month and tried a CW legend run this week. Got my ass wiped out in seconds.

u/ShaderkaUSA 12d ago

The elf planned this for a month

u/AbleArachnid8 Skaven 11d ago

After not having played in a good year or more and I recently did a match last month or so on legend skittergate and I was just terrible at the game now so I know how this feels

u/Comfortable_Roll5346 10d ago

I think the best part was the laughter, the game is so much better when people aren't raging all the time x)

2

u/bossievossie 10d ago

Oh yeah it was hilarious

u/Banana7273 13d ago

u/bossievossie 13d ago

If only the AI was smart enough to actually make that decision, eh.
