Nah, no such thing. Spawns also weren't changed recently or anything. Just an odd series of RNG, probably!

Will check with the team whether the lack of infinite cleave is intended or not!
Yup, this is all working as intended: it is correct that ranged crits get the power bonus, but not the infinite cleave.

Generally, when ingame, we try to use 'cleave' for melee attacks and 'ranged penetration' for ranged attacks.

Originally posted by Bib: But after the fatsharkstream today and the revive of the "versus" Project the changes start to make sense in a bigger picture, where a BH Main could with a Pot staggerchain ult a humanplayer controlled Monster without the later one having any means to counteract or react to it. From a designer perspective that might be bad gameplaydesign. Thus some of the Balance changes (ig the sacrificing of the BH mains playerbase) now and in future might be part of the preparation for this big thing memed and named "Versus".

If my assumption is right, then they really should have been honest about their intentions with the Balance Patch and Future Things to come instead of publishing a Patch dev blog, that had some paradoxical statements.

I know we said we wouldn't be responding to any questions for now and leave them all for later, but we'd like to nip this one in the bud, so we'll make an e... Read more

Heyo! That's hotfix 5.2.1, which we just put live.

We know the patches have been abnormally large in size as of late. This is because we've changed our patching structure to one that doesn't bloat the game over time, but we've found that it leads to patches turning into extremely large downloads.

We're currently looking into improving our building and patching process to avoid this issue, but it may take some time. In the meantime, we apologize for the inconvenience of these large patches!

In case you missed it on our stream, we can confirm we're still working on Versus!

We can't reveal anything right now, but feel free to drop questions here and we'll be looking into them when we're ready to answer them :D

EDIT:
I know we said we wouldn’t be responding to any questions for now and leave them all for the future when we’re ready to talk more, but! We had to nip some rumors in the bud elsewhere, so we’ll make an exception and confirm this:

Versus will have its own separate balancing from the other game modes: if something is problematic in Versus specifically, then it will be changed for Versus specifically.

We had to roll back the patch due to some technical issues! Please don't worry, you still own the items and will be able to use them once we re-apply the patch.

Originally posted by Wundsaltz: I've interpreted it as "The now empty talent slot where Volans Doctrine used to be, will be used for Flamestrike's Tutelage" while Volans Doctrine will become a passive perk, will continue to do what it did before.

Confirming that this is the case :)

I'm not aware of any issue on our backend servers, currently. If this problem persists through the weekend, please make a thread on our tech support subforum so Fatshark Lev can help troubleshoot the issue :)

It´s harder to explain than watching a video of it.

it's not limited to Chaos Wastes or Barrels, I've been getting FF dialogue while using the Flail.

Originally posted by Maitre Malterre: Normally you have to have played at least one Weave and have successfully completed the map 'Dark Omens'; then access should be free.

But: due to an error it 'can' happen that it doesn't work even then. Then the developers will activate it for you manually.

If this is the case, please make a thread in our Technical Support subforum!

Originally posted by Saizo19_: It is called "Pit skip" where you can glitch through a place at the start and make it to the end.

Can you say that it's *not* just premium hats and skins?

I can indeed say that the stuff that's coming is more than just cosmetics, yes, haha.

Originally posted by Tordehole: Just wondering if we know now that Sienna has gained her final class is there anything more to come do we know or is the game fully finished with now?

As we said in the Necromancer launch announcement, definitely more stuff to come! Just can't say any specifics yet.

There is currently a bug that can cause this, it's being looked into!

Like we said in the Necromancer launch post, this is not the end! We still have more content coming for Vermintide, so look forward to the future! For now, enjoy Necro and Geheimnisnacht :)

This is being looked into!

Known issue! Hopefully we have a hotfix for this soon!
This only happens if they join mid-match, I believe.
