Verminart Found art of Kruber in the new WFRP 5e core rule book

At first I thought it was just based on Kruber, but then I noticed that his shoulder shield says 8th Ostland Swordsmen, which is the regiment that Kruber led. So this is definitely Kruber.

Decided to play a chaos water today with a few casuals and this dude decided to rush ahead of everyone everytime and die instantly at the last stage.

Instead of admitting their fault they started hurling insults at everyone. I usually ignore people like this however I tried to peek their profile today and yea checks out.

I equipped my all 5 exotic item (orange) on necromancer but it didn't trigger the achievement but the normal career triggered it with same items. I am putting this here in case anyone couldn't get theirs working.

Question pilgrim coins on off weapon

6 Upvotes

i assume that if you have things like power vs skaven, + crit etc, it only works if you have that weapon currently equiped, but what about pilgrim coins? does it work the same way?

Question i have been plateauing in the game for some time now. does anyone wanna just play a game or two with me and give me some pointers ?

27 Upvotes

for context, Vermintide is the first game that i have ever played. therefore, i don't really have any other gaming experience that is as intense as this one. other games i've played are Stardew Valley... that's it lol. i have been gaming for a total of 1.5 years.

i've been playing with my friends, 2 who have been playing games since they were in high school and 1 who has recently started around the same time as me. let's name them Sammy. the thing is, between Sammy and i, they are progressing a more rapidly than me. i usually main Bardin, and recently switched to Kruber and i still can't play better than Sammy. i spend time outside of the game watching videos so that i can practice executing in games. i do research online and doing my best to build my character while understanding gaming jargon and lingo. i have to literally give myself pep talks to hype myself up before i play games with my friends, it's ridiculous (haha).

i feel like the other part of the reason why i'm not as great is because of my experience. things like kiting come naturally to them. they know how to handle hordes. they are able to concentrate on more than more thing at a time. their accuracy and time reaction is just way better. i try not to be hard on myself for these things, but at the same time i've been playing this game for 1+ years now.

i'm not a super serious gamer in the sense that i'd die for this game, but serious enough where i'm motivated and willing to receive feedback. if there is anyone who would be willing to take even 30 minutes to just watch me play and give me some feedback, i will take it.

apologies to mods if this is not allowed. if there is another subreddit i can go to for this type of thing, please let me know.

thanks for reading.

edit : i play legend with my friends and on my PC with a keyboard

Discussion I Miss Saltz's Trench Coat

31 Upvotes

Man, I absolutely love the trenchcoat Victor had in the first game, and I have the champion of ubersreik skin in the second one thankfully, but I do really wish they had kept it, becuase I would looove to get a red or a black and gold version by completing the typical challenges (helmgard on champion and legend respectivelly). I do quite like armor he has in his one arm in the normal skins though. Idk how which hunter captains dress, but I can't help but think he'd have so much aura with both the long coat and the arm armour. Just a thought.

Gameplay Guide Chaos Wastes Weekly - 31 AUG 2026 - Specials/Twins and 100% crit/CDR

18 Upvotes

Weekly with some pretty great boons and fun curses

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. Avoid weapon upgrades to maximize the bonuses. If you want to upgrade for traits, stick to orange. Some classes such as grail knight are better off not upgrading. It's well worth it to grab an orange weapon for the trait, but you're mildly fucking yourself this week with a blue, green, or red.

Boon Description Extra Info Notes Boon Tier
Ranald's Might Gamble You gain 100% Critical Hit Chance, decreased by 25% per Rarity level of your Currently Equipped weapon Provides extra 100% / 75% / 50% / 25% / 0% cooldown regen when owning a Plentiful / Common / Rare / Exotic / Unique weapon. Doesn't work with items that has no rarity (Torch, Career Skills). Permanent crit, and if you upgrade to an orange weapon, it's still a 25% crit bonus to trigger lightning or regrowth. Unlike the Ranald cooldown boon, it only removes a bonus if your current weapon has an upgrade, so you can upgrade one for a power bonus and still use the other for 100% crits S
Ranald's Hasty Gamble You gain 100% Cooldown rate, decreased by 25% per Rarity level of your Highest Rarity weapon. Doesn't work with items that have no rarity (Torch, Career Skills). This is a must-grab for my warrior priest. Great boon if you get it early on, useless if you get it when you have a red weapon. A not S tier since you can't just upgrade one weapon for bonus power A

Reward

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

Careers

This is a fun one for every career. Standouts include Grail Knight, Witch Hunter Captain, Necro, Huntsman. Most careers can do really well here. WHC, GK, and Necro are fun classes to play but a little boring to play with, with GK being the only truly egregious pick although WHC is very close.

Character Career Special Notes
Wutelgi Sister of the Thorn She has a really nice crit build that can be used here
Wutelgi Waystalker Great synergy with her ult regen talents and special kill potential
Wutelgi Handmaiden Disgustingly short ult times
Wutelgi Shade Stab anything from behind and it will die
Sienna Battle Wiz --
Sienna Pyromancer Infinite ult spam will NOT work here as might gamble affects melee weapons not career skill
Sienna Unchained --
Sienna Necromancer Cursed blood, reaping, scythe. Everything dies
Kruber Merc Helborg's Tutelage talent is useless here
Kruber Homeless Tree Man --
Kruber Feet Knight Disgustingly short ult times
Kruber Grail Knight With his kill on crit talent he can one shot basically everything short of a monster. It's fun but your team will be bored
Bardin Ranger Vet --
Bardin Ironbreaker --
Bardin Slayer He is murder nugget
Bardin OE Engi usually can't get hasty gamble
Saltzpyre Witch Hunter Captain It's basically easy mode, headshots will kill
Saltzpyre Bounty Hunter He's on ok choice here
Saltzpyre Zealot Get hit and murder everything, a good choice. Smite is useless here
Saltzpyre Warrior Priest Get the CDR map bonus and you have a bubble every 30 seconds

Some Highlights From Last Week

I was sick a good chunk of the week and busy most of the weekend, we came close to beating it a few times but nothing worthy of note. Also played a bunch of Zero Company instead- it has some performance issues but it's a really good Xcom clone. I did have someone join my game and ask if I worked for Fatshark, lmao

Fun weekly, may get kind of boring for the poor bastard stuck with a grail knight and necro/WHC

Discussion I soloed all of Helmgart on Cata because I though nobody played it on Cata Difficulty

Post image
65 Upvotes

Lately Legend just started feeling boring to me. I never really bothered with Cataclysm because I hate Beastmen lol, and that's also the main reason why I never bought the Winds of Magic DLC. But since Legend got boring for me, I wanted to try Cata, and well... here we are now.

In Legend I can usually get by with bots pretty easily, but Cata with bots was a whole different story. First time trying it and I was basically carrying most of the run because the bots were awful with specials. They're also like moths to a flame whenever a boss appears lol. Sometimes a boss would spawn in a really small area and instead of backing away or trying to kite it somewhere better, the bots would just run straight at it and fight there until someone gets downed. I thought Cata was pretty much dead, so I ended up doing the whole Helmgart campaign with them. Managed to finish it, but it got really tedious and I was pretty burned out by the end.

Then after that, I finally checked the lobby browser and saw a bunch of Cataclysm lobbies. Bruh. I joined one and everyone was actually really good, and the runs felt way smoother.

I really should've checked the lobby browser first instead of soloing the whole Helmgart campaign on Cataclysm. Would've saved me a lot of time, and I probably wouldn't have gotten so burned out.

After playing Cata for a while, I’ve started enjoying it more than Legend. Legend still feels good, but Cata just feels more engaging for me now. At least I can say I managed to finish the whole Helmgart campaign on Cata with bots lol.

So yeah, I’m definitely not soloing the other maps on Cata anymore. I’ll just join other people’s lobbies from now on lol.

TL;DR: Thought Cata was dead, soloed all of Helmgart with bots, got burned out, then found out there were plenty of Cata lobbies the whole time. Should’ve checked the lobby browser first lol.

Issue/Bugs ReShade Easy Anti Cheat

4 Upvotes

Hello, I googled earlier today and found threads as recent as 2025 where FatShark developers responded to and resolved EAC detecting on ReShade. I mustered up the courage to install and hopefully not be banned, but unfortunately EAC detected reshade immediately and crashed the game. Any chance we can get this whitelisted again? Would be very cool to run DLSS 5 in Vermintide!

Thank you for your time!

I tried to change the name and cover of the video because being a complete stranger nobody cares haha😂 what do you think was it better before?:) the old name was "The Fall of Black-Rot Keep"2 Skaven vs Beastmen.You know, there's a big wall for those who aren't "already known." They made fun of me in Discord, but I work hard to create moments that talk about my passions, so I try to show them to you hoping not to bother❤️

Question Does anyone know what these secrets are in Feast of Grimnir

24 Upvotes

I know about the hidden section in restore the water part that requires 2 barrels to fight the three secret trolls. But one of my teammate found a key that we didn't know where he picked it up or what can it do. I also found that in the bride section where they spam a lot of warpfire there a chain that could be broken underneath it and it dropped half of the wooden bridge and the other half looks like it need a barrel to throw underneath it and shoot the barrel for it to drop( I didnt have a barrel to know if it is true). So anyone know how to solve these secret and what do they give us.

I have been making Vermintide edits for characters/pairings since 2025 and I have finally had the courage to share them here! Recently I've been going over old projects and if no one here would be against it, I will slowly share them here :o]

Of course, I might probably keep the more risque ones to myself, but so far, I plan on sharing a Necromancer, Bounty Hunter and a Kruberillian edit here, if this one will do well with you folks
