[balmy moat]

in most cases you want shriek with staves

you shouldnt ever build around your blitz, you should build around your main weapon

you can if youre doing goof off stuff, but, if you're trying to take it seriously, i mean

[jaunty shuttle]

I'm trying to be at least decent psyker player, so i guess i'm taking it seriously

I'm no longer throwing rocks

[balmy moat]

assail is fine, does depend what you run

#psyker-class is also a good spot to get some pointers, we also have a full build guide in the pins there

preset builds, and templates

[jaunty shuttle]

What are those two bars on middle of screen that sometimes fill out? They appear when you're using blaze force greatsword

[polar forum]

it charges the special attack

you fill them up by getting kills

with bigger enemies giving you more charge

rule of thumb is

no charge for stagger

1 bar to kill trash

2 bars to kill/badly damage human elites

[jaunty shuttle]

Don't i get same attack by using special first? Since it charges its warp slash

[balmy moat]

easiest to show

but ye it being fired with no charge does basically no damage, HOWEVER it can go through walls and floors (all the warp slashes can) and you can knock dogs off of people with it

[jaunty shuttle]

Ty, what key do i even use for activating special attack after it gets charged then if special attack key is for "charging" warp slash?

[balmy moat]

you LMB

or if on console whatever attack is

[jaunty shuttle]

Then how do i activate special attack if i've one bar but not two bars?

[balmy moat]

same way

use special, then attack

[jaunty shuttle]

Ohhh, i need to use special first EVEN if my bars are fully charged?

[balmy moat]

the bar shows how much power that next attack will have, but only if its filled to the next marker

ye

[jaunty shuttle]

Thanks

I'm now reading some doc guide with builds for psyker and my brain hurts

[balmy moat]

the bonanza?

[jaunty shuttle]

yes

[balmy moat]

ye six put in a TON of work to get as much in there as possible

[jaunty shuttle]

I'm surprised tha electrokinetic staff is the only one where you're supposed to spam LMB

[little coyote]

it's surprisingly good

[balmy moat]

its not really "supposed" to but its the only one of EK that currently survives and does well in havoc

[jaunty shuttle]

I basically spam LMB in every staff i try and use charged attacks only for either strong enemy or hordes (depending on staff)

[little coyote]

it has the best crit rate with it so it's preferred for a ball busting build

[balmy moat]

ye surge surge is so fun

[little coyote]

if the staff had a soulflame on crit blessing it would be brokenly powerful

[jaunty shuttle]

I just tried voidstrike force staff and lack of easy to use AOE is painful, it's just an arrow that basically pierces through everything, but it's not wide

I can't find staff most suitable to me, i'd ask which one is best but i assume that every staff can be played properly

[balmy moat]

ye void strike is sadly the worst of the 4 staves (not BAD but not better than the others)

what kind of staff do you ideally want

[little coyote]

low level staffs suffer from slow charge time which makes them all very unwieldy and not very fun to use

[balmy moat]

ye dont judge a staff if its not maxxed , esp if the stats are fucked up

but if it just doesnt feel like what you want thats different

[jaunty shuttle]

I've no idea, i liked voidblast due to it having op AOE attack on charge, but i like spamming LMB on staves more

[balmy moat]

then surge surge is really your only option

inferno LMB is purely stagger, no damage there, and the others its more a sniping tool not dmg either

[little coyote]

though the stagger is very good as well

[balmy moat]

well yeah but youre not gonna kill much with a stagger pulse

[little coyote]

true true

[balmy moat]

oh yeah reminds me

i gotta tell six to change surge surge to not have KF

assail is better

[jaunty shuttle]

What do you mean by surge surge? Can i put two same blessing on one weapon?

[little coyote]

if you go with the surge staff, the secondary fire can be made a lot effective if you quickly change the weapon after releasing the electric surge, all of the damage of that attack will be condensed to a single tick that way

[balmy moat]

EK old name is surge

and we put surge blessing on the LMB spam version

so, surge surge

[little coyote]

yeah all the staffs had their names changed a while back

[jaunty shuttle]

Will the dmg of surge staff's secondary fire stack with light or heavy dmg of weapon that i switched to?

[balmy moat]

trauma means voidblast, and we often use trauma still to avoid some confusion

[jaunty shuttle]

This trick with changing weapon seems to be cheesy and weird

I need to try it on meat grinder

[little coyote]

oh it doesn't require any actions further than changing the weapon

when you have the electric current active to an enemy, just changing the weapon away from the staff to a melee weapon will trigger the damage burst

[jaunty shuttle]

Yeah i see, they receive whole dmg instantly, i'm not sure how useful it really is, i'd need to test max distance that this staff can work with

[little coyote]

it's a bit cheesy but it really make the staff more usable imo, the default attack is way too slow for more difficult missions

but you'd be using the primary attack most of the time anyways

[jaunty shuttle]

When are you even supposed to use charged attack of this staff instead of just spamming LMB?

[little coyote]

it's mostly if you want to do quick damage to a crusher etc

ranged attack to an armored enemy, LMB doesn't do well against carapace

but you will want to stack on all the soulflame talents on your tree to trigger DOT on all the enemies around your initial target, which should be a squishy elite or special

[jaunty shuttle]

I found myself usually activating special ability and then using brain rupture whenever facing carapace enemies

It's not like this staff deals any significiant dmg to carpace enemies without kintetic flayer

[little coyote]

personally I'm not too fond of any of the psyker blitz abilities so I often go many rounds without even using any of them and I don't want to spent an extra talent point on the kinetic flayer when the uptime on it is pretty low in the end

[balmy moat]

honestly RMB normal EK build works fine auric and below

[balmy moat]

it does depend if you have soulblaze active anywhere or not, and if you arent sitting at 97+ peril the entire time, otherwise kf procs every 12s if theres fire on a target

if you run an inferno for example, KF will to a surprising amount

especially since its damage actually can be built up now

[little coyote]

fair but I usually find a more useful place for that one talent point

[balmy moat]

you might as well grab assail then at that point unless you use specifically inferno, so you have a long range snipe tool with BB on inferno, but a faster snipe with the other staves

[strange thunder]

if you don't want to bother with a blitz that's fine, but the one you pick should at least be something that complements your build and know when a good time to use it is

[jaunty shuttle]

Is there any electrokinetic LMB build that does not focus around sitting on critical peril?

[balmy moat]

if you have scriers as you should it doesnt matter

[strange thunder]

you can run the reduce peril on headshots blessing

[balmy moat]

anything psyker you should hover around 80 peril if you can, unless its a SG with warp unbound, then you can sit at 100 easily

[strange thunder]

but psyker as a whole is a peril build

[balmy moat]

if you run a peril-less build, your damage will be relatively low

[strange thunder]

just a dream can help you tank more stuff ig, but usually the best way to play any psyker is to not get hit

[jaunty shuttle]

What's scriers? I can't find it in abilities

[strange thunder]

rightmost

[jaunty shuttle]

Oh that, i was thinking about going with venting shriek since that's how build is made

[strange thunder]

blitz are grenade equivalent on G, abilities are on F

[balmy moat]

if its a surge surge you run scriers, if its a RMB you run shriek

[little coyote]

though I prefer shriek with surge surge for easier access to soulflame

[strange thunder]

surge surge is one of the few staff builds where you get by without any SB tho

[balmy moat]

the surge surge build i use is for havoc friendly use

[strange thunder]

ye I'm using yours

[balmy moat]

in havoc especially, you want ONE psyker that is the only source of soul blaze

[strange thunder]

or at least the same one, idr who made it

[balmy moat]

the rest can use souldrinker for the benefits from the soulblaze psyker

i use a modified version

throwing it in the editor now

this is what i run, can swap ethereal shards for melee speed or anticipation or whatever, can swap SG warp speed for something else too, not mega important

[jaunty shuttle]

so LMB electrokinetic staff is not suitable for havoc?

[little coyote]

I think this was the build I'm going with at the moment, going off from memory because I'm at work at the moment

[balmy moat]

LMB is, RMB isnt

i ran surge surge earlier just fine

my own skissues excluded of course

just dont put fire on the build

UNLESS, theres no inferno psyker i guess, but then you should run inferno or blazing trauma, not surge surge, but, its up to you what you run tbh

[balmy moat]

oof

[little coyote]

Hey it's fun

[strange thunder]

without empyric shock it just looks like a random inferno build

[balmy moat]

i see one point there you could immediately remove and put into KF if thats an EK build

well multiple but

[jaunty shuttle]

Is warp unbound the only way to safely keep using peril generating skills while having 100% peril?

[balmy moat]

really only needed on a rending voidblast, and its less a need and more a "more damage yes please"

[little coyote]

does it not also help with soulflame?

[balmy moat]

well, if you cast at 100 you explode, so

[balmy moat]

force weapon with uncanny makes PotS useless

[strange thunder]

you can edge 100% but you need to quell a little at least

[jaunty shuttle]

Thank you all, i think i'll trying going with LMB electrokinetic build

[little coyote]

oh I dont have a force weapon, I work as a damage multiplier for bosses with my melee. Applying shock with shock maul mostly

[balmy moat]

let us know in #psyker-class how it goes

[balmy moat]

thats rough to hear

FGS, please

or deimos

FGS big stab deals mega damage

[strange thunder]

are you on PC btw? there's a mod (prob a few) that lets you just hold lmb for auto fire and saves you your finger from a lot of clicking

[little coyote]

the damage bonus is very good but mind you I don't really play with randoms with it

[jaunty shuttle]

I'm watching some video with person doing 40 havoc run using LMB electrokinetic build and i've no idea how they ARE NOT exploding from using LMB on staff, even though they don't have scrier's gaze active

[little coyote]

especially against caps and lieutenant shields

[jaunty shuttle]

Sometimes they do enable it so it makes sense, but sometimes its on cooldown and they still keep using LMB staff attack

[balmy moat]

show me?

[jaunty shuttle]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9AZp48wWsA

[strange thunder]

warp unbound gives you 10 sec after the ability ends at hitting critical peril

if that's what you mean

[balmy moat]

ah, agent

[strange thunder]

so it will be on cooldown during that time

[balmy moat]

see that red number?

thats from a mod, shows warp unbound timer. basically just easier to see than the buff bar

[jaunty shuttle]

yes

Yeah, i guess it would come handy

[balmy moat]

in the buff bar it looks like this

[jaunty shuttle]

I feel like person in this video was using scrier's gaze not to increase dmg but rather to trigger warp unbound effect

Since 10 seconds of being able to spam LMB on staff is probably even more useful than scrier's gaze itself, lmao

[strange thunder]

yes, it's usually how I treat SG in general

[balmy moat]

thats generally the idea, yes

only different if youre a gunker/meleeker

[strange thunder]

it's an all you can eat buffet of peril

[jaunty shuttle]

how long do bonuses gained from precognition stay?

[strange thunder]

10s

[jaunty shuttle]

I mean part about weakspot kills

[balmy moat]

through the same as warp unbound

oh, that stops when it ends

[jaunty shuttle]

The descriptions only mentions timer for finesse part

[strange thunder]

finesse is weakspot+critical dmg in one

[balmy moat]

if scriers ends, you cant add more time / stacks onto it

but you CAN double dip sometimes, and have warp unbound AND scriers active

[jaunty shuttle]

I thought that precognition was passive that would work on its own every time i get weakspot kill

[balmy moat]

rending trauma on scriers my beloved

[jaunty shuttle]

Kinda like kinetic flayer does

[strange thunder]

idt any ability has passives

KF is on a blitz so

[balmy moat]

ye

abilities are an on use thing

[strange thunder]

the invis abilities can sometimes have on end thing like precog

but no pure passive ones

another technically blitz passive

[jaunty shuttle]

Ok, disrupt destiny seems to be too good to be true. Losing only one stack instead of all sounds very strong

[strange thunder]

it's for finesse builds ye

not unga bunga burn

[balmy moat]

DD is nice until long elevator ride or slow teammate but ye, DD is the go to melee / gun psyker keystone, start dealing serious damage pretty nicely

[jaunty shuttle]

THE LMB build seems to be using it

[strange thunder]

yes, projectile weapons usually want to hit weakspots

there is no center of mass bonuses yet (waiting for hive scum hopefully)

[balmy moat]

if you dont want fire involved in your staff, scriers is usually the next option, and then if you need to keep your team together / tell them where to be fighting, you go bubble

also, NEVER take wall shields

they sound good, but they no worky

[strange thunder]

yeah bubble can only be bad if you use it as a crutch

[little coyote]

yeah walls are poopoo

[balmy moat]

if they actually worked, hell yeah go for it, but , alas, they do not work

[strange thunder]

walls are niche to the point of only seeing uses in specific maelstrom modifiers

[balmy moat]

and even THEN, they dont work

nothings funnier than seeing a dog run through the same wall 3 times, or the trapper firing through it, or the dog jumping over the wall because its actually really short compared to how it looks

[strange thunder]

that reminds me I need to do SG BB EP build instead of my double wall one

[balmy moat]

ye

then you can also be a meleeker or have a back up stave, gun, etc that will also benefit nicely

[jaunty shuttle]

what do you mean by "no fire involved in my staff"? Not using soulblaze?

[strange thunder]

yes

avoiding left side of tree

[balmy moat]

well

ish

let me grab my randing vb build

[strange thunder]

I thought most rending VB were little SB and not no SB

[balmy moat]

if you run rending SPECIFICALLY to run a rot map, and you have an inferno psyker already, you want absolutely ZERO of your own SB in play, because of soulblaze ownership stuff and uncanny stacking

this does assume though that the inferno psyker knows how to use inferno on rot

well, armour blobs in general

and, because you want no fire, you cant take venting shriek because warp rupture is genuinely terrible, and youll get no damage out of it, which leaves scriers and bubble, and, if you have a psyker you KNOW can run inferno well, hopefully the other 2 teammates are competent enough to not need bubble for herding (unless its a really bad map, if you know you know)

[jaunty shuttle]

Thank you guys, this is enouhg infor for today. Time to sleep and later i'll try to make use of it

[balmy moat]

[half zodiac]

Made it to the twins fight. Was doing pretty well, had a clutch last-man-standing moment where I was able to rescue our Ogryn and he got everyone else up… but we hit another phase with gas covering the whole arena.

During the first gas phase, there was a spot of clear air where we fought and rode it out.

But this time the clear air area went away, and I didn’t see another place to go to and went down.

How do those phases work?

[pastel forge]

Im pretty sure theres 2 spots that can be safe and it alternates between the two

[half zodiac]

Mid gas phase the clear space will go away and you have to run to the other?

[pastel forge]

Yes

As soon as you see the gas you have to sprint or use some movement ability (fotf, indomitable, btl)

[void forge]

Yes. The safe spot will have a spotlight above

[sonic osprey]

Q) Hello everyone, I am a returning Darktide player. One big problem I had is not knowing all the buffs/debuffs on the bottom of the screen... is there any option or mod or online db that can help me identify these symbols?

[strange thunder]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3088553235

clicking through leads you to all classes

so just pick the one you're wondering about

[sonic osprey]

Q) I don't see the Fire Frenzy buff icon when using my Exterminator Shotgun. Is the icon bugged? invisible? or am I doing something REALLY wrong?

[polar forum]

it should show up if procced...

are you getting kills within 12.5m?

[obtuse jungle]

Whoever recorded that new Hive Scum gameplay clip, needs help from this channel ASAP

Probably was same person who recorded the POV from arbites gameplay showcase

[balmy moat]

the only dev i've seen in the wild was on malice, so, with that in mind..... it does make sense but yes they need help

honestly id also wager a guess that, thats one reason why the hud is hidden

[half zodiac]

PlayStation channel is a ghost town, so… are load outs broken on PS5? I keep trying to save them and nothing seems to work

[lime idol]

Swap loadout then swap back

Known bug

[polar forum]

if it's a known bug, it'll be fixed right?

[half zodiac]

What do you mean? I created a loadout. Swapped from new to old then back… they are all the same. Nothing changes.

[lime idol]

When u create new, it duplicates what u made earlier

Sometimes when u make changes to an existing loadout the changes appear unsaved

You can fix that by swapping to another loadout then swapping back to have your changes look saved

[half zodiac]

Thanks, I’ll give it a shot.

[sonic osprey]

yes..

[sonic osprey]

Q) What is a Chained Hit?

[patent jasper]

hitting enemies over and over again without missing

[sonic osprey]

dpes it have to be the same enemy?

[patent jasper]

no just as long as you keep hitting something

[dense tulip]

it will specify if it has to be

[sonic osprey]

it doesnt say..

[prisma jungle]

chained hit, means you have to hit ANYTHING

usually it would say "hit on same enemy" or something akin to that

[keen sonnet]

You just have to keep hitting

It doesnt have to be anything in specific

[sonic osprey]

Q) I am a returning player who had a 30 Psycker and lvl 22 zealot, now I am playing the Arbitrator. My question is: I am just spamming Quickplay missions, but how do I check if I have "completed" the main story?

[prisma jungle]

When you go to the mission terminal, check the buttons you can press, i believe one of them pertains to story missions, itll open up a menu where you can choose -those specifically-, along with being able to make splitting choices

[sonic osprey]

yes, I see that .. but how do I know if I am at the "end"? Whats the last mission?

[prisma jungle]

whichever one is the furthest to the right

i believe unless you havent completed those missions some will be locked, or maybe theyre level locked, idk.

[sonic osprey]

This is the last mission I see, and it seems I have completed it already? (because of the radar/transmission symbol next to it?). Have I finished the campaign?

[prisma jungle]

pretty sure yup

[sonic osprey]

interesting... its been over a year since I played the game, I am surprised they havent added more story content??

[prisma jungle]

theyve been focusing on making the game playable and in-depth rather than add more shit to break

[willow slate]

question for shredderauto pistol what blessing and perks should i use on psyker

[clear plume]

pinning fire + blazeaway for max damage or swap blaze for inspiring barrage if you want toughness while shooting

perks can be maniac + flak/unyield

[willow slate]

ty

[sonic osprey]

Q) If I have unlocked Mastery, then why do I additional need to Bless my weapon? Aren't all unlocked Masteries active by default?

[stoic locust]

No

Only 2 blessings and perks per weapon

[willow slate]

is there a way to view what background you picked on a character?

[polar forum]

go to the barber and ask to do a reset

[jaunty shuttle]

Can i somehow change cap for stats on weapons? Like increase cap fo x stat while decreasing cap for y stat?

[willow slate]

Doesn't that cost funds?

[stoic locust]

No

You just roll for something that has what you want

[jaunty shuttle]

Am i supposed to use funds from contracts or keep rolling profane version until i get one with decent stats?

[stoic locust]

Luckily you'll almost always find it within 300k dockets, which is how much it costs to level a weapon to mastery 19 from 0

[jaunty shuttle]

300k dockets? i don't think i've seen that expensive weapon, even on my character with 30th lvl

[stoic locust]

Oh 300k dockets in grey weapons

You buy 300k dockets of gray weapons, level all of the to green, then sacrifice all of them

[jaunty shuttle]

I feel like i'd rather buy weapon from contracts

[stoic locust]

Should put you from 0 mastery to 19 mastery

[shadow skiff]

I suggest rolling till you get the one you want, then pulling in set amounts so you don't overshoot.

[jaunty shuttle]

Don't people usually have 20th mastery on weapon they are trying to obtain? i've 20th lvl on pickaxe and heavy stumber on ogryn but i still did not get version with decent caps for stats

[stoic locust]

mastery 20 doesn't really matter

[vocal nacelle]

you can upgrade the weapon stats

[jaunty shuttle]

Yeah but then what's the point of sacrificing? To gain mastery on other weapon?

[stoic locust]

To gain mastery on a weapon you want

[jaunty shuttle]

Yeah but there's cap for this upgrade and i first need to get weapon with good cap, right?

[stoic locust]

I just use it to speedlevel a weapon whenever a new one comes out

[vocal nacelle]

get the correct dumpstat yes

melk coin is just for new weapon/ new character curio

you will need a lot of it when ganger comes out

[jaunty shuttle]

Does upgrading weapon quality also increase its cap for stats?

[stoic locust]

No

Potential is static at 360 total points

[jaunty shuttle]

So how high your dump stat should be then? What's the ratio compared to 4 other stats

[vocal nacelle]

80/80/80/80/60

special exception to certain weapon like rippergun /plasma

[jaunty shuttle]

Oh great, looks like i already bought pickaxe like that from contracts

Time to empower and bless it then

Ok, thanks for explaining. It's weird that 80 is basic cap for most of weapons, it would make more sense if 100 was basic cap

[stoic locust]

It would wouldn't it

[jaunty shuttle]

140k spent on heavy stubber and still can't get one with 60 points in stability

[vocal nacelle]

you want the collateral to be the lowest one

stability is your recoil

[jaunty shuttle]

I know

Well, then i guess i got it

[vocal nacelle]

now get 2 more

[jaunty shuttle]

Why

[vocal nacelle]

because there's 3 version

[jaunty shuttle]

I want to be using "semi sniper" version only

[vocal nacelle]

and you dont want to be bothered changing the marks everytime

[jaunty shuttle]

I'm going to give it surgical, Opening salvo and call it a day

[jaunty shuttle]

I don't even have money to rebless this stubber and you think that i would want to roll 2 extra versions just for other marks?

[shadow skiff]

Certain weapons be that way. Some you just want one since blessings and perks are interchangable between all.

[vocal nacelle]

forgot about that

[jaunty shuttle]

I really should get mod for showing crit chance if i'm going to be using surgical

[shadow skiff]

No point. Just do maths and figure out how long till crit.

[vocal nacelle]

surgical stacks shows up on the buff bar

you only need 1s to get 5 stacks = 50%

[shadow skiff]

Or how many stacks to 100%.

Based on your other stuff.

[jaunty shuttle]

I honestly have no idea about second best perk for it, i already took one with increased crit dmg and my ogryn is focused on melee so i don't have proper gun related talents

[vocal nacelle]

you picked the correct one for achlys

its surgical and salvo

[jaunty shuttle]

Yeah but i was talking about perks

[keen flume]

For surgical maybe not but other stuff when building crits during melee combat can help how you gained

[vocal nacelle]

perks is unyielding and carapace i guess, reaper fast kill

[jaunty shuttle]

I don't have talents increasing my crits if i remember correctly

[keen flume]

What class?

[shadow skiff]

Thing is, the crit mod is also known to be somewhat inaccurate.

[jaunty shuttle]

Ogryn, i simply did not build him around crit

i made him into walking tank

[keen flume]

Ogryn does not have much crit talents because he really does need

Due his brutal force

[vocal nacelle]

dont bother putting crit perks on weapon not just on ogryn

[jaunty shuttle]

Well i thought it would make sense to use it since i'm using surgical blessing

[shadow skiff]

Never use crit damage perks anyway.

Unless the number is actually big enough.

[jaunty shuttle]

MY ogryn is just smashing stuff with pickaxe and throwing rocks

[shadow skiff]

It's actually far lower than you think as it only factors the extra crit damage. Think if 100 base, 150 crit. You only get 10% of that 50 damage, so 5 more damage.

[jaunty shuttle]

SOMETIMES i use gun, i don't know why though

ok, thank you all

[shadow skiff]

Which is literally worse than just putting +type damage.

[jaunty shuttle]

Is havoc supposed to be kind of ultimate challenge for sake of pushing myself? Or are the rewards i get from it worth the difficulty?

[shadow skiff]

The weekly box is nice... if you are godly player for a newbie.

[jaunty shuttle]

Best i can do is maelstorm heresy, i doubt i'm good newbie

[shadow skiff]

It's like compared to damnation. 10-15x runs dockets. 200x runs plasteel and diamantine for H40 clear.

[vocal nacelle]

20K diamantine per week is good

if you can stomach it

[jaunty shuttle]

Do i need to win just one havoc match to get this diamantine?

[vocal nacelle]

yes

[shadow skiff]

One h40 a week.

[jaunty shuttle]

h40? Do i need to level up my havoc rank or what?

[shadow skiff]

GL though, the current modifier are complete arse.

[vernal plaza]

Not everyone is diamantine millionaire

[vocal nacelle]

havoc 1-40

even havoc 16 is kinda worth it for new player

3K diamantine per week

[jaunty shuttle]

And how do i unlock higher havoc ranks than 1?

Do i need to play EACH rank

[vocal nacelle]

win

[jaunty shuttle]

Every time it resets?

[shadow skiff]

It will reset next week.

[vocal nacelle]

no its stay at your current rank last week

[shadow skiff]

Resets happen every 3 months or so.

New season.

[vocal nacelle]

new season will reset the rank

[jaunty shuttle]

So havoc is basically highest difficulty AND some extra modifiers for enemies?

[vocal nacelle]

and player debuff

no dmg reduction on toughness broken

[shadow skiff]

And you have about half toughness and 60% hp.

[jaunty shuttle]

I did not even ulock last difficulty on normal missions yet

i bet playing havoc would be fun for me

Ok guys, hold my pickaxe, i'm about to have fun

[vocal nacelle]

its a place where you want to dodge

[shadow skiff]

Try at least going to 10. Those should be easy if the team isn't completely trash.

[vocal nacelle]

because every hit have potential to oneshot you (as in insta kill , cant get res)

[jaunty shuttle]

i'm going to be trash

[jaunty shuttle]

When i played as psyker i was trying to properly block/dodge/stagger even on easiest difficulty, but i just can't get this abit on ogryn

[shadow skiff]

It's just malice tier but harder.

[jaunty shuttle]

Huh? Only malice?

[shadow skiff]

Like heresy with slight debuffs tbh.

[vocal nacelle]

havoc 1-10 is malice

11-20 heresy

21 above is damnation

30+ is spicy

[jaunty shuttle]

Thanks

[shadow skiff]

35+ is GL.

[jaunty shuttle]

Btw, are there curious for increasingg movement speed?

[shadow skiff]

Best you get is more stam to sprint longer.

[jaunty shuttle]

I don't even care about it, i usually take toughness or max health (it depends on perks of curio)

[shadow skiff]

And sprint efficiency to also sprint longer.

Toughness, hp is fine picks tbh.

CDR also if you actually ult.

[vocal nacelle]

the worst thing that can happen in havoc (if you/your team really dense at reading the room) is 6 monster at the same time

not really 6 monster its 3 monster and 3 captain

and 20-30 elites on your screen

[jaunty shuttle]

After i understood that i can just buy profane weapons and upgrade them, i'm trying to find some suitable curious for contracts' currency but i've bad luck with it, those are my current curious

"how much bombers resistance do you want"?
"Yes"

[shadow skiff]

Which class?

[jaunty shuttle]

Ogryn

melee focused build

[shadow skiff]

You can just go full toughness tbh.

17 17 17.

[jaunty shuttle]

I took this one with health because it's health and also small toughness

[shadow skiff]

You can craft substats.

[jaunty shuttle]

For curios? how

[shadow skiff]

You wanna hunt 17% toughness, 21% hp, +3 stam (410+ only, rest are fakes.).

[jaunty shuttle]

Ok but how do i "craft" substas for curios

[shadow skiff]

Stam is more on non-oggy tbh.

Hadron.

Pay dockets from memory.

Or plasteel.

You can check yourself.

[jaunty shuttle]

Oh, there's third tab for curios

[shadow skiff]

Like upgrading weapons.

[jaunty shuttle]

good to know

i never noticed that before

[shadow skiff]

Like weapons, the main stats are fixed.

So always hunt for those stated.

Buy even if green.

[jaunty shuttle]

I understand, all i should i care about is if max stats has its "cap"?

if it's 17 toughness or 21 health i should get it immediately?

[shadow skiff]

Yes, but curios main stat is hard fixed.

Yes.

Even if too poor to upgrade, buy first, upgrade later.

[jaunty shuttle]

Thanks, what are even main stats available on curios?

Wounds, stamina, health, toughness

Something else?

[shadow skiff]

Yes.

Just those.

As said, 17% toughness, 21% hp, +3 stamina (Curio MUST be 410+ power or is a fake) and +1 wound.

[jaunty shuttle]

Thanks

[shadow skiff]

Never get wound unless martyrdom zealot.

[jaunty shuttle]

Hmnn, maybe i'll get bombers resistance on my every curio

[shadow skiff]

Just go corruption resist at that point.

Gunner resist more important.

[jaunty shuttle]

By gunners does game mean every enemy using ranged weapon or just elites?

[shadow skiff]

Especially for big man who eats all the shots.

Gunner+reaper.

[jaunty shuttle]

Meh, i kinda though that i'd be able to get +20% reduction from all firearms (excluding lasers)

[clear plume]

these 3

[jaunty shuttle]

Thanks

I don't really have problem with reaper but when group of dreg gunners suddenly start shooting at you, well....

That can be heavy dmg

[shadow skiff]

Instadeath in high havocs if not prepared.

[jaunty shuttle]

So do i get any benefit from getting "wounds" curiou with higher power lvl?

Or is it always +1 wounds?

[dawn oracle]

I believe the highest is +3 wounds.

[jaunty shuttle]

I should have bought wounds curios i've seen then

[shadow skiff]

Always +1 wound but don't bother unless martyrdom.

[dawn oracle]

I got it mixed up with stamina, dammit.

[shadow skiff]

Or meme kamikaze psyker.

[jaunty shuttle]

I like kamikaze ogryn more

Ramming into beast of nargal/nurgul and attacking its weak spot on back

with pickaxe

Every time i don't have in team person who is doing some grenade focused build (that basically deletes bosses), i end up dealing most dmg to those monstrosities

[balmy moat]

not the same as a suipsyker

intentionally explode to clear elites

[shadow skiff]

You still rather toughness on oggy though.

Hell, even hp is better than wounds on oggy.

Heck, even stam is better.

And oggy has alot of stam baseline.

[iron helm]

Hello, I'm recently coming back into the game and I just had a couple questions. When buying something from Brunts armory are they always white? Cause I thought when I last played he had rarities. my last question involves the yellow meters, If I'm understanding it correctly, the bold yellow is the damage and stats its doing already, and the grayed out yellow is the dmg and stats it can do if upgraded, is that correct?

[stoic locust]

If you buy blind its always Grey, and you're correct about the stats part

[iron helm]

Alright thanks

[split sequoia]

What do heavy swords do?

I want to use them, but I can't figure out what I'm meant to do with them aside from.

[vocal nacelle]

horde clear flak below

with tiny elite killing power

[red ginkgo]

Yo question, does anyone have a VOD for a solo rolling steel clear they can share? Just wanna see the process and how quickly it can be done

[split sequoia]

Hmmm

[vague marten]

game crashes during a match and somehow it's my fault

[strange thunder]

havoc is terrible when there's server problems and the likes

[shadow skiff]

Server crashes should not remove lives but it does anyway. IDK what ancient mobile game code they learnt from that does it to make players pay more for lives instead of just refunding the use on it.

[keen sonnet]

I genuinely want havoc DC protections so badly

[gaunt lark]

Do I need a certain percentage of stamina left to dodge ranged fire while sprinting, or just more than none?

[strange thunder]

that depends on talents or blessings

blessings require more than 50%, talents usually not

[clear plume]

Works with any percent outside 0%

Stripped down, the blessing was 50% iirc

[gaunt lark]

thank you

did the advanced training again and that turned out to be the case

[thin barn]

hey why the fuck are my karnak bells disabled?

my karnak bells, the book is there, but the hardmode just ~doesn't fucking turn on~

"Portents of decay" is fucking completed

my bells should be active

[novel ermine]

They don’t work if you’re the only one ringing them / ringing them with bots.

If it’s neither of those things, then the devs broke something again.

[storm shale]

Anyone know of a good site for builds?

[novel ermine]

Reject build websites, make your own.

In all seriousness, someone else will have to answer that for ya.

[storm shale]

I try but I'm pretty terrible at that lol

Im dumb

[novel ermine]

Try harder. I believe in you pal.

[storm shale]

Ok lol

[smoky ember]

none

unfortunately

gameslantern is the only site with builds but

all the top rated builds r pretty dogshit

if you want builds, ask in the class chats

[keen sonnet]

You gotta filter gameslantern builds by users i find

Like I'll go look at specifically Ainz stuff normally

[smoky ember]

and most builds on youtube n such r also pretty bad

[smoky ember]

yeah

ainz and cicatrices are the only 2 that i know of that put out like

decent builds

[fervent relic]

Is this Hamdolsun slander I hear?

[keen sonnet]

I don't know em off the top of my head tbh

[smoky ember]

i didn’t know he had builds on game lantern

[fervent relic]

He has like 3

[sonic osprey]

Q) I cant consistently load the Special ammo for my Arbites shotgun... sometimes the button just doesnt do anything?? am i missing something?

[stoic locust]

Look ontop of the gun

Load a shell

Look again

[velvet dagger]

limited ammo for it
the number of rounds is visually shown on the gun
don't spam them

[sonic osprey]

oh.. I just realised. When do they get replenished then?

[stoic locust]

When you take ammo

[velvet dagger]

^ this

[keen sonnet]

i've been blessed with a 45 year old camera for crimbo and it's one of those moment where i truly and distinctly understand how the admech feel when they find a relic

[sonic osprey]

Q) Whats the cooldown on the voltaic shock mine? and how many charges?

[stoic locust]

It doesn't replenish without Lonewolf and you carry 3

But you don't run shock mines without lone wolf soooo its just 60 seconds

(And it needs a nerf in some way)

[lunar whale]

How do I reach lvl 40?

Like is there another special campaign once I’m 30?

[vocal nacelle]

thats havoc rank

[lunar whale]

Fuhhhhhh, I’m so screwed then

Thx tho

[vocal nacelle]

just get gud and have decent teammate

[fickle ether]

It's doesnt give any more talent points tho it's more of a flex kinda thing

[balmy moat]

for most its a flex, for some its just something on the side for doing h40s

[velvet dagger]

i.e. pray to RN Jeesus

[jaunty shuttle]

How do i get curio with 410 power or more? I've never seen one with more than 390, even ones buyable for contracts currency

[little coyote]

The power value doesn't really matter in end, unless you want it just for some completionist reasons

[strange thunder]

you can spend for random curios and just get good ones by mass buying them for melk bucks

or check shop whenever it refreshes

the visible ones from the melk selection are never good

[pastel forge]

It does matter for stamina curios at least, and i imagine the same goes for hp and toughness ones

[strange thunder]

410 is enough for all to be max iirc

there's no rounding issue on health and toughness either

[jaunty shuttle]

Well yeah, i want the 410 ones

How do i buy random ones? I thought you can only buy random weapons

Unless you meant the ones available to be bought Requisition

[pastel forge]

Melk

[strange thunder]

ye you can buy random weapons and curios from melk for 250

[jaunty shuttle]

So that's how people spend their contracts currency

[languid jewel]

Yeah i spend all my melbucks on curios

[strange thunder]

im saving mine for hive scum atm

[languid jewel]

Sotrue lmao

[strange thunder]

but I've easily spent a couple 100k on curios

[languid jewel]

Spoiler it will all be extra wound curios

Yayy

[strange thunder]

martyrdom but for gun keystone incoming

[balmy moat]

martyrdom psyker is a thing so maybe

[warped basin]

how do I prevent/fix the bug where I can't ping anything?

[strange thunder]

it usually fixes itself in the mission after a while

[warped basin]

yea I know, want to fix it immediately if possible, or prevent it entirely

[balmy moat]

prevent idk but go to anything you can interact with. a door, an ammo drop, a med station, a stim pickup, etc

airlock / elevator button should also count

i do not know if a downed ally would also count, i suspect so but, have not had both happen at the same time to even try

[magic inlet]

I can't seem to find a fix, I can't equip emotes and it shows every slot is equipped with wave and there is error text "issue found with current selected loadout. Please verify equipped items"

would appreciate any ideas

[balmy moat]

make a new loadout

[cedar dagger]

I have had the same issue since an update a bit ago. I just ignore it lol

[magic inlet]

it actually prevents me from making a new loadout

[balmy moat]

do you only have one?

[magic inlet]

I can make one and delete it doesn't make a difference

but I can't make a second one

[balmy moat]

#psyker-class message

fill the emote slots before you make the loadout

[magic inlet]

I can't because every emote says equipped even when it only shows wave emote in every slot

[balmy moat]

and you tried equpping other emotes? if the button is grey, try doubleclicking them?

[magic inlet]

it won't let me

maybe if I could get new emote from somewhere but I don't know where

[balmy moat]

theres some as penance rewards

[magic inlet]

I guess that is my best hope

[balmy moat]

what class is this on and how far are you into it

[magic inlet]

I'm 28 psyker

[balmy moat]

how many penance laurels do you have?

[magic inlet]

600

if that score in penances is laurels

[balmy moat]

k so you're likely to get a lot of penances done pretty quick

thats good at least

[magic inlet]

now that I'm out of a match here is the picture of the bug

[balmy moat]

start looking for the whispering green glowy idols in maps and shoot/hit them, that will work you towards some passively as you play as well, the skulls are a bit more involved but idols can usually be shot as you travel by if you see them

they also give plasteel as a tasty bonus

[magic inlet]

oh yea I have shot some good to know they give penance score

[balmy moat]

yeah theres a few penances for every area involving idols

5 points each, for 10 idols, 25 idols, 50 idols

7 areas, 105 points there total

lmk if it does work as an alternate solution to this issue, this is only the 2nd time i've seen it happen so more options would be helpful if it comes up again

[magic inlet]

Thanks for help anyways, I'll let you know if it works

[jaunty shuttle]

I bought 16 curious for contracts money and i got only one with 410 score and it has 20 health instead of 21 anyway, bruh

[strange thunder]

16 is nothing

[jaunty shuttle]

i had only that much currency

But why did i get 410 score with 20 health instead of 21

[patent jasper]

the score of curios means nothing except on stamina curios

(anything below 400 with a 3+ stamina is actually 2+ ingame)

[storm shale]

When should I be switching to malice? Im doing fine on uprising and thought i was ready only for me team to get bodied in malice lol

[stoic locust]

There isn't really any specific metric

Once you can win uprising consistently I guess

[warm axle]

could someone explain whats up with the "campaign"?
i´m a new player so i dont quite get why its apparently unfinished or paused, or thats just how it ends and theres no further story

[strange thunder]

there hasn't really been much in terms of missions added since dark communion

only operations and mortis trials

so that's where the story is atm

[jaunty shuttle]

But does not curio need to be at least 410 for its max health/toughness main stat?

[jaunty shuttle]

Where is timer from warp unbound timer supposed to show on screen? I can't make it work

[shadow skiff]

It needs it, but can still roll below max value.

430 should be maxed.

To this date, any 430 I got is at highest possible value.

410 mostly matters for +3 stam. +3 400 are usually fakes.

[faint perch]

It's really down to when you feel comfortable. And if you have a regular crew, when they feel comfortable. What level and class are you using?

I'm guessing zealot...

[vocal nacelle]

When you learn how to dodge

[storm shale]

Yup lol

[faint perch]

I'll expand on what Bristly said and say that getting more powerful is based on player skill more than character level. If you can learn important skills you will be able to handle higher difficulties

[rancid spindle]

anyone got any advice on how to not run out of dodges?

negative dodges I mean, whatever theyre called

[clear plume]

combo blocking and pushing into playing, when you are at low dodges slow down and only dodge if necessary

you only need to stop dodging for 0.85 seconds iirc

its not that long

[rancid spindle]

ty ty

any advice to not get mowed down by gunners in a 40?

[clear plume]

sliding and using cover

I know it sounds dumb

but if you LoS gunners long enough they stop shooting and walk forwards

[storm shale]

Is scrap of scripture good for a new player? Got it from meik

[rancid spindle]

is there anything I can do if I get shot at like instantly? as in i'm fine for a couple, then all of a sudden start getting pelted

[clear plume]

slide

[keen sonnet]

Slide, other answers depend heavily on class imo

[clear plume]

then use abilities or run at them to stagger them out of shooting

its always better to see the gunners before you see them

[keen sonnet]

Is that a trinket?

[clear plume]

so know where enemies are/spawn

[storm shale]

Ya

[rancid spindle]

any tips for movement and also not getting overheaded?

[keen sonnet]

What's it do for you/as you progress you'll want to save your tokens to gamble on curios for optimal stats.

[keen sonnet]

Dodge later than you think you need to

Crusher and mauler overheads stay above their head for a second

[clear plume]

slow down, dont spam dodges and know what you need to dodge (for example, if at max toughness you dont need to dodge weaker enemies so that will save a dodge in dire situations)

[keen sonnet]

Aye

[rancid spindle]

kk, and what to do when cornered by crushers etc? and also poxbursters? ex theres three pox incoming, but theyre all like spaced out. in the sense i push the first one, but the second one then comes in, and the first one i pushed away blows up the one in my face killing me

[clear plume]

and maintaining stamina to block attacks helps negate chip damage

2 things

[vocal nacelle]

cry

[clear plume]

1: never be in that situation in the 1st place, either have weapons that kill them fast. 2;be aware of the map and find "kite routes" and keep going in a circle so you never get cornered

this is hard to explain in text

[vocal nacelle]

okay the real answer is separate the threat first if you can

[clear plume]

but if you need videos to watch

I have a H40 solo video

and plenty of other H40 runs where I run non meta things and improvise all the time

[keen sonnet]

A lot of DT is good positioning and if you're sticking yourself into a corner that's a bad spot tbh, you want to be able to move freely.

[rancid spindle]

ah kk, but ty for the help, i really understood a lot!

[keen sonnet]

The second you can't move freely you die ime.

[clear plume]

understanding the chaos is underated in DT

[keen sonnet]

Yeah

[rancid spindle]

ye ye, ill check those videos out fs

[clear plume]

https://www.youtube.com/@AinzDT

[rancid spindle]

but ty for the advice, im trying to not get skill checked

[keen sonnet]

We all started somewhere, and tide games are a learning curve.

Tbh I can't imagine what DT is like for the people who didn't start in VT

[clear plume]

I didnt

[vocal nacelle]

different playstyle

[keen sonnet]

You started with DT then put 100 levels into every VT character?

[clear plume]

ye

[keen sonnet]

Lmfao ig you really do think VT2 is better

[rancid spindle]

oh yeah one last thing, you guys got any builds that dont have DS? trying to get better at weapons that are good in havoc that arent the DS

[clear plume]

ye

[vocal nacelle]

using enviroment is one of the important thing when playing on havoc

[vocal nacelle]

zealot or vet or psyker?

[rancid spindle]

im trying to get better at having diff builds and surviving the same amount

[rancid spindle]

anything but og psy, those are my least played

might try some psy sometime, just to get better at it though

i cant play ogryn, for me i just die too easily

like i mean im bad at ogryn, not htat ogryn is bad lolol

[vocal nacelle]

ogryn is simple, dodge + slide dodge + heavy attack

[rancid spindle]

do u have a pic of them?

[clear plume]

of?

[rancid spindle]

the builds

[clear plume]

sorry it was in reponse to tong

[vocal nacelle]

why the rager giving you heart emote

[clear plume]

lol

[keen sonnet]

YMCA ahh enemies

[storm shale]

Sorry was in a match will take a look

[keen sonnet]

It's probably perfectly fine tbh, but you'll replace it eventually anyway

Cause if it isnt 3 stam, 17 toughness, or 21 health it's not max rolled

But that's also way deeper down the line, it doesn't even really matter outside havoc

Wounds as a curio are meh currently

[storm shale]

15% max health
6% ordo gain
2% combat ability regen
10% damage resit

[keen sonnet]

Yeah, if you're new it's perfectly usable maybe even good cause it'll net you some more resources to use later

[storm shale]

[jaunty shuttle]

What does exactly finesse from precognition do when i'm using ranged weapon?

[vocal nacelle]

Finesse is related to weakspot, it also affect your melee

[jaunty shuttle]

Yeah but how does it affect ranged weapon then? The same way that it does with melee?

Or does precognition talent does not help in any way when i'm using ranged weapon?

[vocal nacelle]

It should not, but it's FS even if it does the buff duration is quite short

[broken dawn]

Returning after a year. I opted in for the campaign, not knowing it was just the old maps in order. Can I opt out or am I screwed?

[coral relic]

I heard you can go to the barber (the paid one) and opt out

[broken dawn]

Don't see anything like that there

[coral relic]

Did you go through paid option?

[broken dawn]

Yeah

[coral relic]

https://www.playdarktide.com/news/patch-1-8-0-battle-4-tertium

Existing players with characters at level 10 or higher can choose to skip the story or play it from the beginning. Players who change their minds about playing the campaign can opt out by using the Personality Scourge at the Barber-Chirurgeon. Note: If you decide to skip the story when you first log-in with this update, you cannot revert this decision. The only way to play the story after choosing to skip it is to create a new character.

[broken dawn]

[hoary fjord]

I have one penance left for the zealot, could anyone on NA server help me out, it's the one that has to be a private game under 20 minutes

[balmy moat]

send a post in #vox-lfg-nasa

might get a hit there if you havent yet

[ivory gate]

Idk if this is the right place to do it, but does anyone know if there is a mod that differentiate crit headshot kill vs normal headshot kill hitmarker?

[dense yoke]

Does anyone know how to transfer my characters and gear from Xbox to Steam?

[strange thunder]

they do not

[dense yoke]

What the freaking heck

Im going to kill meself

[keen flume]

Do not, that stuff kills you

[warped basin]

from memory I'm almost certain weakspot (headshot) kills have a double-lined red hitmarker as opposed to a one-lined red hitmarker in the base game

[ivory gate]

Not what I meant

[smoky ember]

i’m pretty sure they are different

kills flash your hit marker red, and weakspot hits have double lines on the hit marker

so a red hitmarker with double lines would mean a weakspot kill

a red hitmarker with only one line would be a normal kill

[fierce sandal]

But what would a critical weakspot kill? I believe that's what they are after. Crits are orange normally, but iirc, the red from a killing simply takes precedence

[smoky ember]

idk

the closest i could recommend would be just having the show crit chance mod

[thick acorn]

hello im new

im level 30 now, but still have power level 310 - 410 items

at what item power level should i push for upgrading it to 500?

also how do i make those percentages below the weapon to 80max? some of them are 70 something

thank u

[vocal nacelle]

check your weapon mastery

weapon max stats are distributed randomly, you need to buy multiple weapon in the armoury to get the optimal distribution 60 in 1 stat and 80 for the rest

upgrade the stats at hadron

[thick acorn]

so not all are 80?

i saw in the guide site the weapon stats were all 80 so i assumed it was possible

[thick acorn]

im max mastery now on my main melee and ranged

[vocal nacelle]

nope

[thick acorn]

o ty

what stats do i want 80 on inferno staff psyker playstyle who sticks in ranged most of the time?

[vocal nacelle]

i put low warp res

[inland lichen]

Do lights out havoc modifiers also count towards the lights out penance?

[strange thunder]

should

[coral relic]

Does character height matter?

I can only see an advantage of shorter having smaller hitbox

[dense tulip]

You can take cover in more spots if you have a short height. Also I'm pretty sure tall ogryn can hit the top of the bulwark's head above the shield when facing him

[vocal nacelle]

not really but you do hit head easier if you are taller

boys, why can i not matchmake as my vet yet play havocs on every other character

is there a mod to fix this

it's telling me i need to play uprising difficulty..

i havent really played this character since launch, but even then it doesnt make sense because I was running damnations with it

[shadow skiff]

You need to just grind wins then. No other way.

Or ask people to take you to higher diffs but that might be more punishing since 1 win is 1 win and a loss is -0.5 win.

[thorny bone]

tragic

google said resetting my character personality should prompt me to skip campaign at the end, however it doesn't

[inland lichen]

Any balance preview patch notes outside the upcoming class, that will affect other classes?

[balmy moat]

remaking your character through krall with personality scourge should prompt you to skip campaign, worked last i saw

however, important note, the difficulty climb is not campaign, its base

[thorny bone]

it's a level 30 character that I farmed damnation on when the game first launched, surely that means it should already ahve progressed through the difficulties

it was my first character iirc

[dark kindle]

its not make anything undestandable to me
is there any guides what it do when i need it anithg like that
its very user unfrendly parametrs

then you just wait for your team

and then sprint through it

[autumn glade]

let me draw another one to make it more clear

[nimble narwhal]

alr if it don’t work i’m suing you

[gaunt lark]

what is the point of electrokinetic staff alt fire chaining if it deals next to no damage?

and only seems to chain once at most?

[clear plume]

are you talking about the 2nd target hit with the charge attack?

the chained lightning

If so, its good stagger as well has free damage that might soften the next target for a 1 shot

EK staff used to have alot more chaining lightning with charge attack but it was reworked

[ashen cedar]

I just started playing again after a while and decided I wanted to get some grimoires, so i looked them up on coms plex and I'm confused by these names

Grimoires
Record Way - HL-19-24 Approach
The Overlook - HL-19-24 Skylink
Old Shrine Street - HL-19-24 Archivum (Processional)
The Entry - HL-19-24 Archivum (Atrium)
The Inventory - HL-19-24 Archivum (Admin)
The Atrium - HL-19-24 Archivum
Cogitator Stack - HL-19-24 Archivum Admin
Topside Dish - HL-19-24-913 Comms-Plex 154/2F

is each one a different level, or part of a levl?

[clear plume]

I think its the name of the room on the maps

you know when you enter a new zone it flashes a name

[ashen cedar]

Ahh I see

[crystal hawk]

i got 32gb ram, 16gb vram and the game still cant run and just crashes with " fatal error out of memory" bull crap

[stoic locust]

--lua-heap-mb-size 2048

Put this in steam launch options

[crystal hawk]

what's it do?

[stoic locust]

Prevents out of ram crashes

[crystal hawk]

yeah but then the game will keep running like turd, no?

200fps meanwhile stuttering every 5 secs

[stoic locust]

Idk

But it'll stop crashing

[patent jasper]

I’ve had it on for so long and my game runs fine

[crystal hawk]

i got 300 hrs on a much lower gpu when i played with low settings.
now that i've got a gpu that CAN run the top settings it stutters like shit

it's infuriating

[thick acorn]

will curios main stats increase on consecration/empowerment or nah

[clear plume]

no

main stats dont change

[thick acorn]

so i shouldnt upgrade curios until i get max roll main?

[clear plume]

or as high as you want to gamble

since curio main stat is fully rng

[modest marten]

anyone else having this issue of lagging for around a second a couple times and then disconnecting?

after reconnecting you get the same thing but the disconnect happens sooner and sooner the more you reconnect

ive tried more or less everything from reinstalling the game and trying on another system to using another router and even mobile data and it still persists

[smoky ember]

dont forget to prone, knife the box, stand, jump, prone again, then stand again (without jumping)

this way you also get the raygun guaranteed

[thick acorn]

i have 3x 16% toughness relic

max is 17%? should i just keep them and upgrade them?

[patent jasper]

upgrade the 16%

You’ll barely notice the extra 1%

[clear plume]

max is 17% but so rare its not worth waiting for

you can max the 16 while you wait for 17

[thick acorn]

ogey ty

does the power level matter

the number next to the name

rating?

[patent jasper]

it only matters for stamina curio, any +3 stamina curio under 400 are actually +2 otherwise it means nothing

[thick acorn]

[quiet meadow]

is there a use to picking up criptures and grimoires?

[keen flume]

More docket rewards and penances

[storm shale]

What's the strategy for those big armored dudes that hit like a train?

[quiet meadow]

ty

[vocal nacelle]

learn your weapon anti carapace moveset

[keen flume]

Learn their telegraphed attacks, do not panic when facing them
Several crushers can overwhelm you hard but keeping yourself cool and read their attacks and dodge between their overhead swings

Also yeah it better to bring weapons more capable against carapace

[vocal nacelle]

doesnt exist for new player

if you are new, dont shoot crusher using lasgun switch to melee and start heavy attack the crusher

while dodging the overhead of course

or you can bring chainsword and use the special attack

[keen flume]

Staggering crushers is also helpful

But they have stagger immunity for a bit after being triggered

[inland lichen]

Anyone have a table for havoc rewards per rank?

[vocal nacelle]

havoc rank = ordo, diamantine , plasteel

• 16 = 12000, 2000, 5000
• 18 = 15400, 2270, 6100
• 20 = 17300, 2650, 7100
• 22 = 19800, 3140, 8200
• 30 = 41000, 7050, 15200
• 35 = 73000, 12600, 22900
• 40 = 137400, 23200, 35100

[maiden path]

theres no prestiging or anything right? you just max out your weapons and curios and you have your 30 talent points?

[little coyote]

you can install a mod that will display the excess levels you've gained after level 30

it's called True Level

it also has a prestige system

[inland lichen]

Ye I saw this in a google search. I thought people would happen to have something more detailed

[maiden path]

got it, but theres like nothing else to make you stronger right?

[little coyote]

nah, nothing like that

[maiden path]

👍🏿

[vocal nacelle]

i dont think someone want to derank to certain rank and wait for a week, the rank rewards is compiled during the first havoc release not changed since then

[inland lichen]

No one has datamined it?

[little coyote]

It might be serverside instead of client side so I doubt we have access to that data to mine it

but that's just an educated guess

[vocal nacelle]

not really needed

[vocal nacelle]

more or less cover the reward range

[warped basin]

grims are great for filtering out teammates who're waiting to get mad at you for any little thing, some players are seemingly allergic to adding a bit of difficulty to their run

[warped basin]

I am going to empty my full lasgun mag into a crusher's neck to justify my bad life choices and you cannot stop me

[inland lichen]

Even funnier if you have a purity aura zealot, so at worst they only suffer -40 max HP

Heaven forbid they experience havoc hidden modifiers

[balmy moat]

grims only suck if a vet has field improv. people not thinking will just absolutely eat the entire med kit for no reason.

bots also suck with grims, theyll sit there and panic-use all 4 med charges if they get 5seconds

[inland lichen]

The social aspect is why I pre-detonate every barrel I come across to avoid "accidents" when picking up grimoires.

[faint perch]

I try to if it's safe. Especially when using my force psyker. Explosions everywhere otherwise

[warped basin]

there's that one map where you start at a long walkway that has a chasm on the entire left side and there's a monstrosity spawn there
I like it as an early filter for players

[shadow skiff]

Not everyone wants to play perma blind and on perma final wound though.

[inland lichen]

Blind?

Perma final wound? With a purity aura zealot carrying grims?

[balmy moat]

even without purity theres usually enough medicae to reset

as for blind, i do really fucking hate the filter for being on last wound, i forget which mod let me turn that off but thank FUCK for it

can play marty in peace

[dense tulip]

where there's also a ton of barrels that can punt everyone to their death?

[balmy moat]

"Disable Screen Effects" mod

can choose which to turn off and which to keep

[inland lichen]

Clandestium Gloriana.
The only pvp map in the game))))

It's extra fun with the maelstrom modifier for extra bursters and barrels

[sturdy fractal]

Just noticed I'm having flickering with the snow on one of the missions almost like it's constantly rendering it in and out so I keep seeing the floor beneath it I am using mods but I don't think they should be causing it? i'm not sure but anyone seen this or have any ideas of a fix?

[inland lichen]

Wha

[patent jasper]

new havoc season perhaps?

[inland lichen]

No havoc till the update drops?

[dense tulip]

finally, havoc is no more

https://tenor.com/view/crab-rave-dancing-dancing-crab-gif-16543314

[fervent relic]

the good ending

[balmy moat]

new season, same modifiers, fixed rot armour (melee damage resistance not just ranged), new climb to 40 to no longer suffer the shitty poorly thought out derank system

[polar forum]

new climb is to level 40,000

[dense tulip]

new and exciting blighted rations modifier lessgo

[balmy moat]

they probably wont

[coral relic]

fixed rot armour? where did you see that

[strange thunder]

was in one of the preview vids

idr who made it, vamp maybe?

[keen flume]

I think it was from vamp yeah

[balmy moat]

vamp i think is the one i watched specifically

also mentioned we'll be able to FINALLY swap blitz/ability without remaking the whole goddamn tree

[strange thunder]

yeah now that they're actually swapable it works fine, but I still have the mod to do it between any talent

[rich prawn]

Does anyone know if there’s a way to play solo mode on console so I can do the Malleus Monstronum penance

[clear plume]

Since it requires a "private game" it's not possible to do solo even with mods

Best way to proceed is to ask a friend or ask in the LFG channels to get a party together to start a private mission

[rich prawn]

Damnit fatshark

[clear plume]

Indeed

[onyx night]

Hey all, newb here. Anyone can tell me what these "divisions" in the health bar mean? The more the merrier?

[muted pumice]

Which is the current best class and build(s) for clutching?

I keep finding myself the last one alive, and needing to solo large parts of the missions. What setup is the best if your teammates aren't really doing much?

[clear plume]

"Wounds" are health separated into segments it does not increase health value. But wounds are the amount of times you are able to get revived after you get downed

like Left for Dead

its okay to have an extra 1 if you learning the game

but are bad for end game

since you sacrifice more defense options
