THE HARDEST MAP IN VERMINTIDE 2 - Cataclysm Dark Omens - Wood Elf Waystalker Hunting Beastmen 

In my opinion, the debate of the most difficult map in Vermintide 2 comes down to Engines of War and Dark Omens, and I personally think Dark Omens has worse difficulty spikes because of the map design itself, and the faction you are fighting (Beastmen). Chokepoints can be a good place to fight because it forces your team to stay together and overlap dps (and this map has plenty of them), but on Cata there are often waves of 6 specials that can only come at you from 2 directions. So they can easily cast tornados safely from on high, or otherwise pull you to your death in the middle of a horde, not to mention how difficult it can be to shut down banners when you're pinned between hordes on both sides and only have one narrow avenue of approach. Combine all that with "Nipple piercing alley", the huge ravine system near the back end of the map where Bosses, Ungor Archers, and massive density of ambient trash and armor spawn and draw aggro as Hordes come after you, and you've got a recipe for serious ass kicking on behalf of the AI. Not to mention its pretty common to get 3 bosses on this map. I know not everyone loves fighting Beastmen, but I personally think Fatshark did a great job with the rebalance of them, and I find them really fun to fight. This is one of my favorite runs!

That was a good run. Always fun to go out with your buds to drink potions and throw axes at the local cow population.

Back in my day, we didnt't push the minotaur off the cliff but we fight him with honor and glory ! Sure, we all got killed in the end, but it was in style. Younglins today don't know how to fight proprely ... (Cousin Okri would be very disappointed by all this) More seriously, nice game gg. This game is just a pain in the *** but God how satisfying it is to finish it.

Wanna hear how this game gave me a heart attack once? I was playing the Return to Vermintide 1 DLC and split off from the group to find some loot. I enter a small church building. All of a sudden I hear a roar, I turn around and there's a fucking Minotaur wailing on me. We eventually beat it but died minutes after.

That Dwarf was crazy good!

that intro gives me flashbacks to my friends and I constantly chanting "we're da rats" while playing vermintide. good times.

idk if I've ever seen Indy pick up art.

12:35 "SIR PLEASE STOP SHOOTING ME!"

I love the soundtrack at the finale of this map!

Hardest map is actually the Enchanter's lair... Fighting the urge to fall asleep is unbearable :p

Hey Milk awesome stuff as always[ not to say u can see cata DA every now and then] One thing boggles my mind: after Range swap u are nearly instant in block- teach me master O.O

The moment I heard Jerma, I SMASHED the shit out of the like button

great gameplay my duude

Me watching this without even knowing what this game is

20:12 - bless this ravaged Indy

Jesus, Cataclysm Vermintide 2 is intense, I was clenching hard.

Dark omens is tough through the map, but it's very very doable. The main difficulty used to be the ending, untill people found out you can just kill the flags without killing the minotaur or any other enemies. Engines of War is pretty tough during the barrel part, but again very doable. Truly hard maps are convocation of decay and especially enchanter's liar because of their insane end event.

i dont know why but i really like this game, too much fun for an game not soo expensive.

2 questions One, how do I get the cosmetics you used in this video they're gorgeous two, what talent changes would you make if you swapped out s/d for glaive/spear

Did you save the footage or is this a new play through of it???

21:00 - 21:09 great elven archer style points

i remember to have finish dark omens in cataclysm with only one player with me; a random but a random veterant of V1 and V2. the build: the veterant: battle wizzard , bot: ironbreaker , bot: mercenary and me with shade. the killing is for shade and battle wizard (shade: specials, elits , boss. BW: the hordes and the infantry) godbreaker for an immortal punching bag and mercenary THE jack of all trade insta revive, temp HP and one pillar of The Empire ready for Duty.

"As if on cue" yeah I had to deal with a ranger dwarf axing me too. They say Kerellian is bad with the friendly fire, but one Bardin axe chunks a tenth of your health.

I'd love to see the build your Bardin was using

I still say enchanter's lair is harder

i thought it was the hardest map too, after release, but actually i got used to it quickly, you have a lot of up and downs on the map to dps and buy time for res enchanters lair boss fight i find harder :D

The bats, the bats, we're the bats

I haven't played in roughly 6 months, with all the balancing and somewhat gameplay changes/tweaks would you say the game is still fun to play?

Dat intro!

Can someone tell me how do you get those weapon illusion? I thought purple was the only colour in Fatshark glowy palet. Thanks a lot

dammm alot to learn

Hate playing with guys like you that say "HELLO TEEEEAM?" .5 seconds after getting downed.

Anytime I play this map it feels like I'm playing two difficulty levels higher than I am.

Did the devs fix at least some of the issues that plagued the game?

Not bad for a Wutelgi

How did you get that skin for kerillian?

Intro song ?

Where can i get this Skin? C:

how do u played for this ??

How many questions you gunna ask? Question boy lol 😂😂

I wish the Beastmen had more units, both in this and total war, War dogs and God Gors would probable be doable in this Beastmen could defiantly use a mini campaign to like 5 levels

Always wanted to play this game. Is it worth it? Or do I need 3 other friends.

Fortunes of war Cata is way harder, but i don't know what standards you go after since fortunes in a way is a survival wave map. But i atleast consider it to be the absolute hardest challange in the whole game, and that frame ain't seen often.

I got 2 Min and 1 demon on this map and it was only Champion... Crazy Fun game!!! They need an option to remove Hud!!! Fatshark needs to make a Lord of the ring Version of this or continue off Vermintide and make a 3rd!!!!!

Oh boi

What kind of new content, new playable character or new enemy factions would you hope be released for vermintide in the near future?

Didnt you play Enchanters Lair?

Its a decently hard one, not as bad as enchanters lair or blight ritual, but thats just my opinion.

Play in pc??

Is this the best meta build for kerillian now?

mate....it's grade C beef....cos it's Chaos beef :P

Hey indy have you got a discord? I'd be bang up for playing with you guys. Was playing since release but slowly lost my team over time, now I just do quick play. Warning though, I just play elf.

Enchanter's Lair is way harder. I'll run Engines of War Cata Twitch with a good group no problem. Did Dark Omens in like 3 tries first time to get Cata, still have yet to complete Enchanter's Lair with a good group.

I am glad I didn't buy the DLC so I don't play this map very often.

yeah i did it not too contested by the beastmen yes it was hard but no where near as hard as some other missions

I cant do any difficulty above champion because I dont have any friends who play and I'm always on 300 ping in quick match champion is hard enough with 300 ping and even if i could find some Australian people to play with i dont have a mic and no one wants to play with mic less people so ill never get red items

like for the jumpy boi

im not saying ur word is that of god indy but it does baffle me when someone trys to debate ur strats or game logic. every now and then youll make a mistake but overall you know what to do, thats why id just roll with what you say. just a weird thing i notice with some of the ppl u always play with. love the vid tho

Brain juice world

Vermintide 2 devs lets lock Cataclysm difficulty behind a paywall lol.

Oh, come on: you had a smoother run with us randoms.

Hey, Im stupid, how do I get veteran items?

is siena bad in the game?

You have a good team and I like your teams positioning, yourself included. But I don't like this build. You could have problems with handling big pressure in gerneral. Also with sustaining ammo, without the Dwarf who gave you one extra talent from his roster. Why the barrage instead of ammo feed? You don't seem to utilise it at all? Why movement speed instead of regeneration or stamina? Is that Skaven damage reduction any good when you don't have any other damage reductions except prom Foot Knight? Will duo swords help You when You get pushed into the wall with armor mixed with horde and Your ultimate skill is down? I don't think this build is very all rounded. On the other hand, I wonder if you had any particular damage brake points in mind there. Could you explain them? I'm very curious. Does assasin skill make the doual swords not as terrible against armor? How do You kill Chaos Warriors?

I realy need to play this on easy... stil i might die haha

imagine being so insecure that u care about accidental friendly fire. real chads do it to eachother on purpose.

I still think convo on cata is way harder than this map.

If you dont play as the dwarf what are you even doing you lumberfoot

i mean 2nd first

Cata Blightreaper is more difficult IMO - unless you get really good RNG.

on cata this is one of the easier maps because the beastmen hordes do not have any damage dealing elites or monks/berserkers, also beastmen have been nerfed into the ground.

Bro I have the fow cata frame

Weird hearing u not commentate total war

That intro makes me crrrrrrringe everytime!

first

Painfull ta watch, try it on the daily challenge where they split and all the enemies are upgraded

Sword and dagger is way better.

Dont want to say this, but man, your aim on this map was pretty mediocre overall. Almost no headshoots neither with bow or melee (swords are very dependent on it to do some AP dmg). You have crazy good map awareness, game knowledge and great moves. And those calls! Saved the game many times just via speaking! Im not a person that enjoys spending time on youtube, but your content is always more than welcome. Keep up the great work! Btw, your fav class to date?

Lol. Try Pastorale 140 noob!

Ahhaha I can’t believe the fucking intro is from that stupid jerma movie 😂

Hardest map is FoW bro

2 fucking maps i hate on legend is festering grounds and anthel lori or how ever you spell it

not the hardest at all

Pff noobs XD

Dual swords? Please don't.
