Tools of War, a massive new content drop for Warhammer 40K: Darktide brings ten new weapons, night fights, and more to the 41st millennium.

Tools of War is an expansive new content drop for Warhammer 40K: Darktide. The new drop brings ten new weapons, two conditions, and a whole bunch of much needed bugfixes to the beleaguered game. Now, defending Tertius from the tides of Chaos will be easier than ever.

Especially with a new Thunder Hammer, and two different Combat Shotguns! See what firepower you can bring to bear, and what new combinations await you in the new content drop, available now.

Warhammer 40K: Darktide – Tools Of War

The biggest thing in the patch are the ten new weapons. They are as follows:

  • Deimos Mk IV Blaze Force Sword – Force Sword with a focus on single target damage and precision stab attacks.
  • Illisi Mk V Blaze Force Sword – Force Sword with a focus on horde management. When charged with Warp Energy it cuts through groups of enemies with increased power.
  • “Brunt’s Pride” Mk II Bully Club – A more basic Vanguard and Relentless move set that can be mixed up with slaps and punches.
  • “Brunt’s Basher” Mk IIIb Bully Club – Send opponents flying with tanky uppercut swings or strike them down with lethal Strikedown combos.
  • Munitorum Mk VI Power Sword – A Power Sword with a more varied moveset.
  • Ironhelm Mk IV Thunder Hammer – A Thunderhammer slightly more capable of dealing with several enemies. It can cleave through multiple light enemies before dealing the obliterating blow while activated.
  • Gorgonum Mk IV Twin-Linked Heavy Stubber – An even heavier Heavy Stubber. Hard hitting, slow rate of fire.
  • Achlys Mk VII Twin-Linked Heavy Stubber – A relatively light twin-linked Heavy Stubber that has increased mobility and is preferably used at a shorter range.
  • Agripinaa Mk VII Combat Shotgun – An accurate and fast-firing long-range Combat Shotgun with a boost to weak spot damage. It can also be loaded with a powerful and hard-hitting single-shot slug round.
  • Kantrael Mk IX Combat Shotgun – A powerful and aggressive Combat Shotgun with a wide spread and high damage. It can also be loaded with an incendiary round that sets enemies ablaze.

On top of that, there are new conditions and condition combos you can unleash. The next few weeks will have a variety of combinations, starting with Darkness with Hunting Grounds, and more. For a full list of conditions, as well as a complete list of bugfixes and quality of life upgrades, check the patch notes here.

And until then, grab your Thunder Hammer and keep it close.
