I want a force sword with actual cleave
no, just barely anyone runs damnation with randoms
Ragers in dt are baby mode compared to berserkers in vt2. You can dodge in and out of their attack range and trade with them in melee
BB feels pretty weak past Malice
what is it with lvl 4 gibbons trying to leach on higher levels
because it is
In the trailer the psykic was using a 2hander
monk flashbacks intensify
bb has no scaling, mob's hp scales
oof
oh yeah i see it
Huh, that and the shock maul are missing
how do you know that's a 2hander?
well now, that's pretty definitive
i'm laughing my ass off at that response
Bet that has some good cleave
After more cosmetics
anyone know what "suppress" means exactly?
yhey stops hooting and hide
at least, that is how it is supposed to work
You should go and buy the staves in the store that have the perks you want so you can slap them on that bitch when crafting is released
thanks
so no effect on melee mobs
force sword swings heavies with two hands doesnt it
there’s a shock maul MISSING???
It does actually effect melee a bit I noticed
yea it was in the trailer, absolutely clobbered some enemies. Nowhere to be found in game
it's a 2h lol
interesting
lao yeah that’s a different weapon
it’s a 2handed sword
has different animations then force sword
rip
I would sell my left testicle for a 2h force sword
imagine cleave
anyone have screenshots of the shock maul?
I’d sell both my testicles for a 2 handed force maul
its in the orgyn trailer and on title screen
oh well, can always replace the blessing once crafting is here....eventually
the weapon the Zealot is holding?
I'd guess probably two weeks. Probably.
still so much better than the one i have currently, so i will have to use it regardless. damage of surge staff is piss poor anyway
that’s just the thunderhammer no?
nah see the big fella
yeah
when i hear maul i think hammer
it was leaked aswell to have 1handed power maul for humies
any other psyker weapons leaked?
we’ll get all the weapons and crafting after they add more cosmetics
Still confused why psyker got a shotty in cbt but not release
Shotgun was so nice for killed ranged guys really fast
you can dual wield rods in inquisitor : martyr 
idk why they don't have a roadmap for stuff too
brb gonna play that instead
damn we lost another one lmao
this game makes me wanna play vermintide 2 cause crafting
Psyker electric melee, just use surge staff, charge, then special attack to play pretend.
Special attack sucks though
I know, that's what makes it special.
after buying and using a purgatus for th first time, I can officially say
not great feeling
yeah it sucks
range is shit
basically encapsulates my psyker experience so far
anyone willing to help me with the going out with a bang penance
probably still assessing timelines and prioritizing. these things can take a little while to create
because they'd fail to meet the deadlines
siblings how does one screen shot only 1 monitor
Alt + print screen
Are any Psykers feeling like they just perform better with an autogun rather than a staff? I feel like the general playerbase is too low IQ to benefit from a CC support and don't remove ranged threats to let you fullfill a support role. My build is focused on brainburst and when I ulti it only costs 1.5 seconds and 50% less peril. So when a big fight breaks out I can absolutely spam Burst on all the elites without needing to quell. I pair this with dueling sword and an autogun to remove ranged enemies that the veterans for whatever reason are unable to
finally done
no, voidstaff is a railgun that murders and surge is great cc.
if you're still levelling surge is fine for dmg on t1-t2
there is also purgatis, it turns things blueish
Thunderhammer, why are you asking this with us psykers?
You missed the context sibling
god i feel so useless as psyker
I feel like Him on Terra as psyker
does kinetic flayer give a warp charge or no?
rolled flurry 3 on my current staff which is pretty nice
Idk about you but i've been doing a lot and kicking ass too with psyker heresy and malice
now if only the shop ever gave me any staves
maybe i could get one that is more than 346 
because we should get force hammer 
when the bb kills yes
yeah but then 2 veterans join my game and do everything better
ok thx
might aswell play vet
ok bye then
dont wanna just be a cc bot
been there, carried them, easy goes
Use Voidstrike and kill everything
you can bb very distant targets, they do mid better
my dude you're playing damage support
you could just run void and do fine but you made up your mind already it seems
Use force sword and laugh as things try to kill you
I think surge is great for matches personally.
Would you say this Headpiece works better than the final hood or nah?
baldcap is hella ugly
Today I was facetanking the plague ogryn without breaking a sweat on Heresy
Kinda feel like robocop
Kinda want a full on helmet enclosed though
i get that "voidstirke enjoyer" but i mean more so my bb just being shit tier when everybody seems to kill elites and specials before i even pop it
I've done 26 missions with Void, 19 with Purgatus and 12 with Surge all in all every single one of them is good, it just depends on preference, does the zealot have a flamer and/or which one is the best one for you if you have skill issues trying others
Reject BB, embrace staff
its such a bad feeling
yeah, thats why you dont use it on anything but maybe crushers or bulwarks with kinetic barrage
Hey pskyer pals can you explain how your level 15 cooldown talent works
Does it give cooldown to the psyker only or do allies in coherency get it too
same as how other classes dont use their grenade as their main armament
also snipers and bombers that run off
even then vet with bolter pops ability and kills
just void the snipers, bombers yeah
Whoever kills an Elite in Coherency gets the Cooldown reduction.
It's not worth it take the passive warp charge one.
allies in coherency
sometimes dogs that already got hit a bit and I think die to my BB
Thanks
346 pretty good?
its aight
but then why is the tree so focused about BB?
is it?
yes
I would disagree
through warp charges
since you can get charges other ways
BB isnt the only way to get chargea
it's shit
Yes, just what I need on my Psyker.
oh wow, got this 👀
I uh...disagree
is the mk iv good?
This is my personal ape purgatus build and it slaps hard
It's either 111232 or 111212
Show your Purgatus Staff.
oh? flamethrower staff?
id change the lvl 5 to 3
Mine is 2-2-2-2-1-2
It's a mediocre one
Oh god it is.
worth buying this? it's the first good looking voidstrike staff ive seen in shop since like ever lol
Just got to 30 sibling
solid
I see.
Id say yes!
not great but solid
Whats a good blessing for surge staff? Mine has terrifying barrage atm
2-2-1-3-1-3
warp flurry
terrifying is good too I think
I have trouble telling if its working
surge players seem to think its good, and thats all I can really say about it
You wanna know why I don't use mind in motion? because if you have a staff it's pointless
what perks/blessings would you recommend for voidstrike? thinking about it blazing spirit probably doesnt help all too much
transfer peril and flurry imo
transfer peril 3 makes it basically peril neutral
uninterruptable one is good too
flurry makes all staves better
kinda like running fast while multi tasking
just dodge 
but yeah warp flurry is a BiS for all staves imo
You can't run with hand quelling even with mind no?
since all staves primarily use rmb
except purgatus
yes
what would that one use?
but even that I just take my power and fully recover safely
fire staff
different playstyle I thinks
It does? damn, well, here's a move kit that's cool as fuck: sprint + slide + heavy at the same time, you go really fast and you don't use stamina
For movement
No you can't sprint with Mind in motion what
Just tested
you should rly use the lvl 2-2 throught it's the best perk in my opinion
Run and Gun I find is really useful on Purgatus.
You really need that basic attack while sprinting or else if you get shot at, you're dead in your tracks with no cover.
I'm using psychinetic wrath because it increases damage of purgatus really well and other weapons since staff damage is sort of lacking imo otherwise
ok ok
are there any news if thos damn psyker penances will be changed or should I continue suicide bombing elites until I get it?
you dont spend enough time chilling at high peril for wrath to be meaningful imo
unless you're microing with quell a ton i guess
That one is actually quite easy.
I did that today and I got a noise complaint on my front door, I told em sorry and explained what happened, they forgived me lmao
It's really easy
15% dmg on purge direct damage is... nada
try bringing an ogryn friend and a full team and tell em, run surge to ticke ragers low enough that they die to whoopsie
you can also tell your team to bully specials into a corner but its a bit dodgy
is this worth?
Yeah Ragers usually go in groups of 2 at least. Just get one more random Elite and you're good to go.
ok ty
doing it in public though as none of my friends own the game
my adhd brain can multitask easy in this game, it's so hectic that it feels like i'm floating on water in peace
i jsut have base one equipped
at that point, luck or maybe a gunner patrol that sometimes happens
but getting in is hard
lol fair. the way manual quelling scales tho its way more efficient to quell to 0 and spend more time using rmb vs quelling
well, it is until they run off or someone kills them while I'm exploding which is what's happening all the time
you can also ask here, there's people who also do em
that one likely isnt getting nerfed I imagine because its totally doable with a team
stuff like cliffhanger got nerfed because it was basically impossible to do with regular means and not sorta cheesing it
I do like a wave motion with peril that it's mostly high but normally low, I still do a really good job
same with monstrum, that one is still stupid because its contraproductive to normal play
for out with a bang I can only recommend getting a force sword and q spamming between special attack charges to build up peril fast
is it contraproductive or counterproductive?
Finally got going out with a boom. Shit’s a pain in the ass without a coordinated group. And even more destructive since you actively kill yourself throughout the mission
contra
this came up on my pysker dailies …. I am honestly tempted https://i.imgur.com/xOvlmch.jpeg
tac axe bad imo
We were just talking about it 
what curios do you siblings recommend?
anything with combat ability regen
Wounds.
I only take wound for 4-5
I happen to have 1 health 1 toughness curio but yeah
Is this one worth it?
yes
charge is a bit bad but thats offset by flurry
extra weak spot damage is neato, carapace is w/e
Id get that
what staff do u guys run for random pugs?
something with damage, I feel like surge is hard to carry with?
do i buy it chat
If it's malice then anything since it's easy. Anything higher surge for the CC
absoluitely
Damn… that’s nice.
as psyker, i wouldnt
is the toughness bug still in the game ?
it doesn't have block cost reduction 😢
no
base health is low enough the return on %health up isnt really great
Patched.
toughness up, toughness damage taken down or toughness regen speed up is what i go for
you dont wanna block as a psyker anyway if you can avoid it, even with deflector imo
don't force swords get ranged block
not by default
with lvl 20
I mean sure you could do that I guess but blocking is bad in general
i am not playing the game until i get a decimator ranged block force sword
its a blessing
blocking is a last resort
blocking is only good with force sword and its still meh
and force sword for example isnt great for it
Cc yes, probably. Block tho? Hell no
but idk I dont run peril block because I'd rather actually do things
That's what ogryns are for
well the push follow on the warp sword is wild stagger
you can block while reviving using deflection afaik
you can also just use a staff for reviving, more stam
hilariously that still works
not sure if thats a bug but it does work
cliffhanger is so annoying :(
yeah ogryns are the blockers with a shield they can just tank the deamon
YOU DONT KNOWW THE STRUGGLE OF 20
run the ammo mission for cliffhanger. there's a narrow path at the start !!
But you can be tankier than them since peril block
reeeeee
it saved my last heresy
wow thanks bot
I did Cliff hanger on Chasm terminus
if you wanna do it with me i'll run it with you
do you know the struggle of "every ogryn teammate ever going BRRR"=
If team is reliable - u can use a psyker that knows how to block even without block perks or feats. I facetanked daemonhost for like a minute or two. That's more than enough to kill it
cant even get enough enemies near a ledge
i just solo'd cliffhanger at the start of the ammo mission. need to do it on malice or higher because the bots will just kill the horde on 1 or 2
yea cos can block for a while using PEril and you passive quell peril while blocking
on CT therre is a nice ledge to wait for a horde off to the left after the first drop down
Not exactly
😢
You can keep dodging in any direction and let your stamina recover bit by bit so it won't damage you straight away
That's what i tried, it's a little scuffed, but still works
you get your teamates to determine horde direction and move to the proper side of the bridge to funnel em, then use warp sword followup to get some pushes and finish with your ult
the way mobs slide across the floor breakdancing in the middle of their swing to reach me from across the map
triggered me
I desperately need one such as that sword
if I wasnt a big slaughterer fan I probably would get that
buy it
Who's gonna guess i'm gonna do with all these boys bunched up
you'll still be able to transfer blessings
Ikr
voidstrike
Suicide bomber
Wish Surge had better Horde clear
CORRECT
peril bomb
Anyone know how gear score is calculated? I thought it was the sum of all % + 10/mod, but when added up I am always -3 - 3 off.
Nice
Hello, what are all the possibilities to have clothes in this game ? Cause all the clothing I'm seeing for the psyker are... really ugly
the upgrades to modifiers are a lie, right? upgraded my force sword to yellow, but it kept its modifiers at 317...
show us the explosion smh
new beta helmet looks good
Most of these are unlocked thru penances too
at the armory or through penances
Wdym????
Guide for new Darktide players and veterans alike explaining how weapon stats and stat bars work and how damage is calculated. B
HUGE thanks to Manshanko (who helped me with too many things to name), to CommissarTyr for his excellent armor type representations and more.
https://www.reddit.com/r/DarkTide/comments/z2pn4t/enemy_breed_armour_types...
it literally tells you now, its bar% total for grey and then perks and blessings have their own values
Too many elites to bother doing anything else
he explains the additions in the vid
damn.. ok
the psyker is super fun, but it's visually the ugliest class imo
Achieve the Malleus Monstronum penance and you'll get quite possibly the best looking attire for psykers.
the hood with the face covering looks sick, or the last tier of penance helms with the goggles
I am a personal fan of the imperial edition stuff.
I thinks all the armor look great tbh
You're calling this ugly
I think I look cool.
But u gotta solo a fookin monstrosity with ogryn shield in ur team, basically cheese it
We're not going to be able to swap perks are we?
Do u have that outfit to show?
Yes, that's the joke.
or this
I don't
Compared to veterant or zealot ? absolutely, the armor on the photo is great, but the gaz mask I hate it personally
I want the hood(s) so bad
do you guys take toughness or max health for curios?
vet looks pretty bland
veteran look basic af
I don't have a group of my own and none of my lobbies cared to let me dps the monster.
toughness
it pairs well with the first floor of the psyker's feats
Vet looks cool yes but zealot ain't got shit on other archetypes
Somebody posted on reddit a vet lookin like top class guardsman
while health is just... health
I wouldn't say they're bland
personal preferences I guess
They are absolutely not bland
even with chip dmg?
Yes
you regenerate toughness almost all the time
while health is once every medicae
or medi pak
What difficulty do you slay on?
4
toughness deal rly bad against fire damage
I once saw a zealot packing like 6-7 bars of wound which made me think like - is he really getting downed THAT much to need so many bars?
I don't attempt diff 5 until my gear satisfies me
shame that head clips through the dlc collar though
I think of + wounds as training wheels
like half of the head sticking out while moving
I adore militaristic attire, zealot it good but the hood you get is weird to me, psyker looks like the kind I expected which is me and my whimsical ass doing warp fuckery and wanting to have some sort of representation for Librarian astartes
I have a feeling that 1 extra wound is more than enough.
that's nuts
- wound is nice for Damnation I find
Was this in the psykonium ? Cause I'm wondering if you can enable health bars while doing missions ?
Yes, my thought exactly.
atleast +1 wound is good for heresy and damnation imo
It's enough of your bar that it's unlikely to be overtaken by Corruption
you can thinks as, if he is getting down one with a 6-7 bar he restore more life than he if only getting 2
It allows for a wider margin of error
you can't enable health bars in missions, I did that in the meat grinder
yes
I usually go +wound, +toughness, then prob another +toughness. Toughness is critical on high difficulties because of how much damage you take from range fire
Toughness dmg reduction?
I have a +3 stamina but it doesn't give me more than 1 extra bar of stamina
It's damage reduction for melee, and a complete shield for range fire
can't tell if this is a bug or intended
any tips for the perils of the warp penance on specials?
Vermintide could be the same, where +2 stamina would just give you an extra bar. I'm guessing the decimals just aren't visually presented
I see I see lol, well Darktide is my first warhammer so Idk anything about the lore sadly, but I would've love way more clothing options for all the classes anyway
Yes, go kamikaze
also btw wtf happened to the promoted eyepatch and hair for zealot, headphone for veteran, visor for psyker and bulky armor for ogryn??
soon ™️
likely coming later in some form
I did it doing solo games on Damnation until I got three gunners clumped up. For me it was the Chasm Terminus Raid mission, the Assassinate that starts in the sewers would also be good. Also; it's elites, not specialists. Specialists don't count for it sadly
don't give me total war ptsd
The psyker visor is a paid cosmetic in the store
Being psyker is like this: I don't usually blow myself up, but when i do, it's because i mismanaged peril and blew up nothing.
Afaik the others arent ingame yet
Does that mean we have to pay for these ?
wuh???
not this one tho
Oh, my bad. Thought it was the same one!
@woven wigeon Does you see one here sibling?
Yeee I thought it was the meditation helm
My beloved points out there's no visor though
in my case, it's because the situation is so dire that the risk of overheating because psyker's passive of 10% chance of -10% peril on kill, is worth it
I blow up everything when I choose to blow up
That shit triggers way less for me than 4% charge on kill does
I blow up also when it's least needed
The 10% drop tends to proc often when firing into a horde with voidstrike! Helps maintain peril
I use the voidstrike, it triggers fairly often for me to be satisfied
which do i use
I want an attire without bloody collar
even though, 10% chance of -10% peril is still a miserable passive
double handling when fatfish ?
blue
what lvl do force swords unlock?
do a penance
I just only recently got my hands on purgatus staff, wanna go around burning stuff in holy flame
I am even ready to pay for it
english please
Dual wield staff.
I said yesterday that I'm french lol
people felt sorry for me :/
its a sword not a staff
Come on, what my sibling said was perfectly understandable.
Oh?
what can you do, sometimes fatfish, sometimes knot.
Just do a baby easy penance
no idea what fat fish means
it was a joke for fatshark but eh.
fat shark but for people with a sense of humor
could said fat shark
Not everyone has a sense of humour
no fun allowed
why not fartshark?
That good
You must have picked the loner personality.
Because reasons
more importantly, what level does force sword unlock?
around 10 afaik
Iirc, like very beginning
that just wasnt that funny to begin with
but humor is subjective
so I wont judge
like 7
17, have never seen a single one
Thank the armourer for that, it's on him
It wasn't meant to make you laugh, it was just a humorous pun towards the company's name.
It wasn't meant to make you laugh, it was just a pun towards the company's name.
there we go
By the throne
Transgender flag lmao
unfavourable interpretation of that reaction says youre a real piece of work there, nessi
Imagine getting transflagged because you explained a joke
Witch one?
no swearing
Hey where do people get there backpacks ?
yes
imagine caring about someone reacting to your discord message with a "trans flag"
imperial edition of the game
what's this ? preco ?
Impossible 🫣
check on steam, it's the ++ edition of the game
I mean prebuy Idk how to say it in english :/
transflag was just the most recent react emoji
huh okay
it's 'pre-order'
the word you sought
AH YES I forgot 😦
baguette
emperor's teeth...
Any of the ones with the chest piece, on malice or higher push 7 enemies in 2 seconds (before you try and consider complaining about it it used to be 20 before launch and some of us siblings had to do so), on heresy deal 90% damage with brain burst on a monstrosity and one that you just get by leveling up
sometimes i feel bad for blocking gif spam, sometimes i dont
Correct me if I'm wrong, but people that didn't play close beta still receive beta helmets?
I don't think so
I didn't play it and i have it...
The Mark V Columnus is the 2 burst right?
that would be kind of pointless to give a beta helmet to non beta players
But they did
My friend got the pre order items and the helmet which is funny as hell and I can't complain
fat fish moment
Oh that one? I didn't know it was chaged! Then its extremely easy penance thatks!
Oh the helmets aren't for people who played the beta, they're for people who are betas
Yeah, i bought the maximum pack from steam and i noticed i got beta helmet... I'm like - why is it here...
Easy mistake
Read the penances sibling, that's one thing we are known for
my friend got it even without imperial edition lmao
Not like I'm going to wear it. I don't vibe with helmets like these on a psyker
the beta helmet is outstandingly stupid looking
I agree, hood of the deimos rebreather are badass
A Psyker I played with had the beta helm and one of the store outfits
I thought he was a Vet lol
Next we're gonne have Ogryns that can be mistaken for Psykers
Big brain
Except on ogryn and veteran, veteran just because dude you get a fuckin balaclava ontop of the helmet
a psyker wearing a guardsman helm just to try and fit in
Shooting out lazers from his rod
my type of magic is a gun and bullets
I like how the Zealot beta helm just has some scripture on it. If you can get some more practical looking armour from them, you'll just look like a particularly fanatical guardsman
Mine is whimsical flammenwerfer Tazerann
But that's magical too - how those work.
Oh brother, i just got my hands on one of these staffs and I can't wait to try it out. Shop's rng been a bitch to me recently
Would you like to be drowned in backstory of the Warp?
Since it unlocked not even once have i seen it
Heard too much of it from Luetin

I dont follow this like you use your staff to hit stuff while picking them up?
you take stam damage when hit while reviving
I bought the open psyker helmet in the premium shop thinking it would go nicely with my Tekken haircut, but the damn thing makes my character completely bald... and me mald
why can't you preview the damn thing on your character in the shop
jokes on you for spending cash
select staff before revive and you end up using its stam bar for blocking it seems
since it has more stam than force sword that came in handy
do you have to hold a button like in vermintide or does it use it naturally?
nah it just did it
that true for any wep while reviving?
I think so, though I am super not sure
This is why you shouldnt wear toilet bowl seats on your head. Important life lesson
It makes you look like a Marvel villain lmao
And I kinda love it for that but, ye ideally the hair would stick out the front
Or at least for beans like me who went with a shaved style, at least show that lol
no not the one from the bundle
Ye they mean the Rebreather I think
the one with the metal mohawk in the shape of the inquisition
Oh wow, that one makes you look bald?
yes !
That's some strangeness
rate my sword
Very cute, would stroke before swinging
i give it a 454
-11/10 not perfect rating on everything, dismantle material
what's weird is that they fixed the zealot helmet that made you bald
7/10
good stats but +1 stam is useless
crit dmg too
so i thought "oh cool they've made all the helmets display hair"
you can reroll perks later
yeah read the crafting news post
eventually lul
devs need a well earned break
hopefully after they've fixed my helmet to display my cool haircut, because that's top priority
Not until fully working crafting system
how about fixing warp absorption actually working with pergatus staffs
can anyone comment about terrifying barrage on surge staff? If I kill something far but something is nearby is it stunned?
I wonder if you'll get to upgrade rating
Maybe to a weapon you already own
It'd be cute to get to upgrade the shovel my Vet started with to my endgame weapon
Surge staff is... Wonky
I had my fair share working with it and even though stagger is amazing it sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. Sometimes it targets shit behind an elite standing at your face and not that elite at all...
It's like a surge staff is completely rng
oh ffs, I had 5 shotgunners next to each other and vet blasted them before I could get to 100% peril, that is impossible
am I the only one who felt very underwhelming compared to other classes at lower levels?
bummer, I have a purp I got with it on but dunno if I want to commit to that to Gold
is this any good?
Is it testable in the psykhanium?
I think surge is great you can spam a lot of CC
Yes
It doesn't change as you level up
ok holy fuck the peril on block feat is good
man its hard to tell then what do I look for?
man :(
facetanking a daemonhost lmfao
should i switch before i invest too much
ranking rod right now >>
crazy how tanky we get with that perk
Nope, just a doomer! Psykers aren't beating out Vets, but imo they're in a better place than the other two
You'll likely feel stronker once you get a staff in your hands
from what ive read about endgame we really dont, all we do is chain cc
Vets are over tuned atm
Depends on your weapons
With a surge staff, sure
Purgatus I just spam rclick left click or is it worth charging it more? Is its left click worth anything?
Feels like we're supports atm lol
With Voidstrike, I'm clearing hordes
While also contributing to CC
And the ocassional headpop
very poor supports lol
Yes, you still headpop on Damnation, just not as often
Yes
shout out to mk5 combat axe. shit goes hard
surge staff with +damage to unarmored is a great fun
psykers to me feel like they don't belong anywhere - can be tanky, but ogryns are tankier, can be trash clean but zealot is better in trash clean, can be elite killers but vet with a boltgun will blast everything before you charge one brain burst
I think they should rework some feats or buff some, they dont seem to synergize outside the lvl30 ones
good?
So ye I wouldn't worry about it, Psyker only gets stronger as you level
And they have a few different niches
exactly
Woah, I think that's at least giving you %12 toughness 😮
whats best for curios?
Essence Harvest and Psychic Communion and Kinetic Flailer all combo really well
Helps ensure warp charge upkeep and gives you constant toughness charges
whaaaaat
Kinetic Deflection is also very strong on its own
I just got a 475 flame staff dropped after a mission!
idk why brain burst takes so damn long
Because it stops being your primary tool later
??
What do you pick for lvl 10 feat?
From a maxed Psyker opinion we're arguably the weakest class right now, but that doesn't mean we're not fun to play. You'll never be as good as a Vet for dealing with elites, You're not going to be as good at ccing or dealing with hordes as a Zealot, and you'll never be as stronk as Ogryn. But it's still fun to use the staffs and brain burst.
We really need some tuning done to the class to make us on par with the others, but just give it time for Fatshark to iron out the kinks
just dropped for me lmaoooo
then give us our grenades back
I don't think we're at all weaker than Ogryn haha
We can block very good!
Poor big guys on Damnation
if its that useless it shouldnt replace grenades
It's still useful! During firefights on damnation, it gives you a very safe way to deal with enemy gunners while everyone is pinned
shame about that quell speed
I know for ranged they put their hand to their face? Not sure what melee looks like when they are suppressed.
and surge can stun people very good
what feet do i choose
peril block 👀
I like the top one, Kinetic Deflection
tips please as i find him extremely weak as lvl 3
You'll be able to hold off hordes and ragers
Mind in Motion (3) or Kinetic Deflection (1)
yeah, but still, has great perks (sorry for german)
Honestly, most classes are quite weak at 3 haha
Do you like it 😄
Like, there's not much to differentiate you from the other classes at that level
3 is the only one useful at t4/5. Wiping out your warp charges is sadge. And the 15% cooldown on elite kill makes 1 kind of silly.
Just gotta stick with it
but i feel so useless specially vs alot of hordes .
You mean the brain burst lvl 30 one? Ye I agree, Quicken just seems iffy. I hear the fire one can be ok if you're fully built for it though
Ye with Purgatus
Makes the whole build work
At lvl 3, all a Vet has to help with that is like, a basic sword and a lasgun haha
use the Devil Claw sword early for cleave with Heavy attacks until u get your first staves
Dw, you'll find your tempo soon
Pick up a sword and you'll be about as helpful as everyone else, sans Vets weirdly high toughness
For warp flurry I assume a chained *secondary attack could be maxing your rclick attack into another maxed rclick attack?
What do you mean? Not sure what that is lol
Yeah
“Fully built for it” is literally just taking the lvl 30 feat and a fire staff, you don’t need anything else
But usually it's not worth it unless you are trying to stun a pox burster or something.
always half charge
Is Perils of the Warp Explosion when we hit 100 and turn into a suicide bomber?
btw does deaths count to anything in this game?
I'd have thought you'd also want high radius and burn on your staff (prob damage too if that helps?), and maybe the other soulblaze feats, plus ascendant burn
Er, the staff blessing that gives burn on crit, rather
What crit lmao. That's a useless feat atm
That blessing doesn’t work with the purg staff sadly
perk*
Ye
Oof 😔 Got it on my Voidstrike and it barely does anything haha
burn on crit is theorised to work pretty well with Purge.
since exponential damage growth on more stacks.
Purg staff can’t crit though
There's no crit on purg lmao
you can see it crit in the training area
needs some specific traits/blessing, afaik, but people reported it can
Interesting, that’s new then
pretty sure it changed on release
there is now
only the direct dmg can crit, not the soulblaze
go into the meat grinder and see for yourself
it was reported after release, if my memory serves me well
Ah, cool. Still seems like a bad build, but it's good they fixed that.
Well that’s exciting. Time to look for a purg staff with that blessing.
i still think ascendant blaze & all blaze talents are absolute trash even w/ purg
I wish we had bosses in Psykhanium
its just too slow
yes
Nah, ascendant blaze is a contender for strongest build
strongest because it's probably one of the only things that are viable though right
True
It is really good but very situational. If you land in one of the more open maps, you are not gonna have a good time
Might as well play Zealot if you are going to go with purg.
"viable"
There's about three builds that seem popular at high difficulties
Warp charge build, then using that with either surge or voidstrike
And the fire build
ive tried the fl ame setup over and over, just feels bad to me
if you name any brain pop build im gonna SCREAM!!!
shit dead now > shit dead later
Warp charge build uses bb but it's not all you're doing haha
if only 6 WCs and 10% BB on hit didn't share same row.
Ascendant blaze would be pretty awesome then
i wish i liked it more cus purg is my only decent staff atm
I can make some for you
It’s a massive aoe CC+DoT mate, it’s strong
@stuck bridge Your name has explode in it. Don't deny fate.
ah!!!!!
Honestly the psyker is the worst of the bunch, why do I even bother with this class
Oi
Bad boi
every staff is aoe + cc, it doesn't offer anythign that psyker can't already do
i much prefer the 3rd talent for rapid bb
The Ogryns are in shambles, you can't pretend to be beneath those poor big boys
the dot is so weak
It’s literally the only staff with decent dps
The others are all burst dmg
purge is best for single target dps, yes, but it's still trash at it lmao
Voidstrike has infinite peril and can stun poxbusters. Surge has stupid CCs, makes ranged groups that wipe you out on t5 cry.
Purg is just so lackluster by comparsion, a crappy zealot flamethrower.
so this is uhhh an instant buy right
im jealous
Fuck you lmao
some people are truly blessed
I still can't get a decent force sword. My store is all guns 99% of the time
guns and axes all day long
I still cant get a "anything" force sword
just no force sword 😢
As somebody who got lucky and got a really good force sword…you’re not missing much
if it makes you feel better I still can't find a deflection force sword
force sword move set is whack, it fills a niche w/ deflector + special attack tho
deflector is extremely good
I never liked the forced sword tbh.
Deflector is the only thing force sword has going for it tbh
Blocking ranged attacks is just dumb for helping teammates atm. t5 is just constant wipes from random spawns of huge ranged groups.
Without that you might as well just use a chai sword
I literally had like 2 dozen ranged units spawn instantly behind my team. 3 of us *instantly *died. Barely pulled through.
naw the push / push attack alone make it better than chain
Would have loved the sword then
daemonhosts are dumb
chain p useless for psyker
I found a blue Force Sword with Deflector, a 15% Block Efficiency trait, and a decent damage roll. Super lucky 😉
Force Sword also has a very solid push
yes im salty
PSA: Kinetic Overload can aggro daemonhosts https://i.imgur.com/KO5rciw.mp4
https://i.imgur.com/J5tMMqE.png
And the mobility is pretty good
Not knife tier but
Still solid
The Special is also at least better for monsters
Than just BBing
force sword special spam is p much psykers only way to deal solid monstrosity dps
Cuz ye otherwise spamming BB against a monster on damnation
You
You just feel like a lemon
it tickles it
I focus on wave clear, if able, during monstrosity's for that reason
I just got Pick n' Mix completely by accident lol
Oooo nice, even less reason to take that talent
what staff is that?
Not on my mind at all and when it popped I was like "oh fuck ok then"
Step aside slab shield ogryns
purgatus
what do y'all think of mind in motion
damn, worst part is I wouldn't care about penances at all if not for that best cosmetics are locked behind them
yeah it's too bad because PSYCHIC SOUL FIRE is a really cool archetype
I have this worry that block efficiency bonuses (including from Deflector) only contribute to stamina blocking, not warp blocking
I can't prove it but
Reldon, do you use the Peril-on-Block feat? I find it combines great with Deflector.
It'd make sense lol
lol this psyker with the ogron beta helmet on
peril on block is a must take even w/o deflector imo
It competes with Kinetic Deflection
So I can't justify taking it
you know i was worried too, but i was face tanking 2 gunners on heresy earlier and actually losing peril
Especially since you can dodge while quelling
Is Warp Battery penance malice or heresy, because it says malice but I remembered somebody said some of them have wrong text.
35% efficiency btw
it was heresy in prerelease idk if they changed
anyone know how gear level works? do I get higher level items in the store as long as I get and keep high level items or do I need to equip them
Gotcha thanks
They did change a bunch of our feats in the last few days
Ye, you can check progress by doing a Malice game and seeing if the count goes up
got it today on malice
Ah sweet, thanks
Now the only annoying one I have left is cliffhanger
🤔
weapon with higher rating and damage% does less damage
lolwut
first target stat
Cliffhanger is easy now. It went from 20 to 7.
oh shit lol
First Target is very important on FSword.
was that on endless?
Yeah, I just need to get lucky near an edge
with that I was lucky some ogryn put his shield near ledge and aggroed horde and I just pushed them
Question about First Target; does it apply to all attacks, or only attacks that can cleave? For instance, the Catachan Knife's heavies can only hit one target; does First Target still contribute during those
it should be pretty easy to get in the final stage of silo mission after change
One major thing I dislike about the force sword, passive quell is faster on my axe than the force sword.
And the axe is just so much better dps wise
does anyone have a good psyker Feat build ?
I always switch to staff to quell. Faster, and you don't lose mobility
Current drip
@stone sage most important is peril block and toughness on quell
I feel this, hard to go back.
I would be much calmer with a good weapon as well
is your character a dwarf
mostly ignore warp charges, the passive ones that give you wc aren't bad
3-2-1-1-3-3 is what I run
i fucking hate poxbursters.
Half of the time you ulti them and they dont care.
uh, no?
@sleek herald push, light heavy push can be clunky in clutch moments.
I saw this too, and I was a bit confused still since the description says it affects how much damage done to the first enemy "when hitting multiple Enemies"
Sad that there isnt a more red Haircolour, Just made a psyker called "MiniMagnus" but hes not redheaded ❤️
But
It feels a bit unintuitive if that doesn't apply during singletarget attacks
Then it always works, push or ulti
👍
I dont struggle with them much
exactly died to one mid-jump.
except when they appear out of a door 3 feet from you...
after he went through ult
But normally that lightning staff or void staff fully charged will knock them down to finish off
Ye the main problem with bombers I have is when they get shot with a Bolter just as I was pushing them haha
like, fucking hell, it was such a nice clutch game.
dont they not explode once u stun them to?
force sword with deflector and kinetic deflection is so good
Depends
It seems a bit inconsistent sometimes
weapon push is more reliable than ult for them in my experience
Ah... I can see that
At least if they dont explode they take ages to get back up
if they have sstarted jumping they will explode
It's pretty funny tbh
Maybe. Problem was also it was jumping on my ally, not myself. but he was definitely in range of ulti.
meh
There's this awkward moment where they fall over and dont explode and they're like
I swearrrr ive seen them knocked out of their jump mid air with no splosion o.O
"Did that really just happen"
Yeah the fall over
And ye can concur, this happens sometimes
I think it might have something to do with no one being close enough to actually trigger the explosion
Guess we just need some consitency haha
🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
PSA: I just noticed that the Pick n' Mix penance says on Heresy Threat or higher. When I got it I was on Malice.
that makes it sooooo much easier, great to know
Oh no! This must be reported! I'll get right on that
Trust me
I'll def do that
way better BB break points on malice
Dw about it
🤯
bout to go run some malice before they fix lmao
just push them tbh
more reliable
unless your veteran shoot it when you're near it
I swear they do it on purpose
weapon push + back dodge and they consistently explode from safe range
Depends on weapon a bit
is this a good skill?
My poor force sword Vet
Can't clear the distance sometimes haha
The price I pay to be OP
yes, very good
it's not great but better than alternatives imo
Ye it helps with Warp Charge upkeep
And once in a blue moon, will be helpful for damage
👍 thank you everyone
if you run one of the two staves with dots, you'll be able to build charges rather consistently
When you get the BB on top of a Force Sword special
mmph
Take that poxwalker
Ur def ded now
🤯 ⚕️ 😁
@hot surge i got off and am home, you wanna do some purgin?
ayyy
Good job, you're done with the easy penances.
Now go solo a boss in heresy diff.
with a group of random trigger happy people
🥹 time for the hard shit
I'm in the home stretch
Weird roast, that's not even a hard one. It's a penance about your social skills.
Just play with mates? Its that easy
when they will had private lobby I swear
got MM & pick n' mix yet, got the rest organically without specific effort
This is a good skill for WC farming specifically.
Bro just outed himself as having no friends while trying to roast someone lmao
was not a roast but okay
this is the most annoying things
hoping pick n mix i can get organically as well
How high does kinetic kill go?
oh and it's definitely not a matter of social skill when groups in pug consistently say "no" to your request at any occasion
yall think this is worth?
yes
bout tree fiddy
Ofc they say no
Yes
I would
the stats are very good
I just went into one of the premades I'm voice chat and managed to do it for myself and another guy
not having quell hurts but its good overall
Because they just wanna play
Needs more quell speed
stats are nice, but purgatus
but i already made this one idk if its worth 2900 buckaroos ya know
what if void or surge next update?
idk if i'd spend 3 bones on it
tbh i doubt theres a tangible difference in those
then there's no completing that penance unless you're the last one alive and it happens to be a boss on your way to res everyone
They are practically the same.
definitely sit with the 1 you got now because if you buy it youre gonna see a 510 bis voidstrike tomorrow
quell speed drop but idk if thats worth spending to upgrade unless you really love purg
Wait, no
This one is currently better due to it's perks.
no way you should get the one for 2900 while you already have this one.
yep thats what i was thinkin, not sure if the ilvl of the weapon makes a difference either
rating itself doesn't matter, it's just a sum of stats.
while first one has higher overall stats, actual difference will be very small.
- second one has increased damage on hordes
idk if dmg stats are worth at all on purg, i assume they dont apply to the stacks only the direct dmg
still really good staff but just pointing that out
worth buying?? need opinions
not bad, emporer's gift. malice
does psyker ult still trigger the lacerate blessing?
I do wonder if 80/80/80/80/80 is possible. Like, if that's the end goal, it kinda defeats the purpose of the stats lol
wait, you can't get a 100?
Haven't seen one yet.
no, you can't
nothing goes over 80 rn
80 is a max.
i assume they are gonna implement reds again or something
any thoughts?
good or nah?
my dumbass blew all my prerelease money on those lol
i have nothing to show for it
nah not for psyker
this would be such a dope dagger.
For a zealot
if its still interacting w/ ult it's more than likely getting fixed at some point
the surprise stuff is good when you're like level 7
does anyone know if lacerate is triggered by psyker ult? people were saying that online which is the only reason im considering it
I wish there was a rod who can blast happy little clouds :[
vape staff?
Why are there no green circle screen in this game?
void strike is the goku one right
because we're too toxic lol
Which ranged weapon is best for psyker?
Bolter
any staff but trauma, depending who you ask
i prefer void
@grave owl if you're planning 4/5 the answer right now is surge (electric)
but any can be played at a high level I think
The trauma is the worst right now I think
yup make sure you use surge to zap backline gunners and heavies / elietes closing in and its invaluable
Ridiculously good, if it was on a preacher... Too bad you are a pysker
this was true in the beta and is no longer true now
bummer ty
Starting Psyker: I can't wait to get the flame staff, oh boy
Getting the flame staff: ...voidstrike my beloved
welcome aboard, sibling
