brb brain exploding
Not at high levels you're not
void staff is my (1) horde clear, and (2) mass stagger
Any1 know what this blessing does? I've tried spam my secondary, charge it, mix it with primaries and specials, I can't seem to get a stack
Go back to worshiping your carrion lord zealot
Its probably not for me then
that is 100% not true. you don't know what you are talking about. you should not spamm bb, that is true. but focus fire specials/ elites
BB is still occasionally usable
You forgot genius, cause the ogryn we have in dark tide can count to 4 and do so sometimes in the drop ship
Call the commissar, we have another one!
if you spam your right click it's faster
being able to peek and "snipe" gunners and reapers from safety has utility, sometimes
@flint sky what staff does kill elites efficiently? and dont say purge. smh
Every time you fire your charged bolt its faster to charge by 4%
most psykers are noob. they bb every enemy. that is noob, indeed
Up to 5 times
If you stun elites then your team doesn't have to block and they die faster
It gets stupidly fast if you keep doing it
BB is for bombers snipers and trappers. you know, those pesky things from far away. Just don't spam BB on everything.
You can end up in situations where 3 of your teammates are killing horde/melee elites while you work on reapers with quick peeks
Remove yourself from this place fanatic
using BBs
Ah ok, and there is no UI for the stack?
Not my point. No staff does that's the point
You’re bbing elites and specials instead of stunning them and a clutter of everything else around it
Just zap then bb
Not for weapon effects no
3 bb from safety is not sniping, it still takes 7 seconds if you start imediatly after bang
Or voidstrike to knock over and bb
You can test it via the Psykanium meat grinder
300dps anyway heres 4 reapers with 2700 hp in this room bro
Juicy
who asked?
trying to kill 3 activated reapers with a gun is a crapshoot
It takes way more BB at higher levels to kill everything, and you can't make it go fast enough to warrant the time it takes a Vet to blast it. It's a shame but rn not worth
is my point
Bb sucks and I'm tired of saying it
the suppression sends your aim into narnia
Just surge them, and they are stun locked for 15 seconds or more
Poke your head into a room of reapers and gunners shooting
Or catch a stray shotgun blast and die instantly
your kind needs frequent reminders.
which is why you stun all 3 reapers at the same time and let the squad go to town
Sure it will kill the odd damaged elite but its pissing in the ocean compared to a bolter or xii
I hope you are tired of saying it because you repeat it every day without fail
@flint skyok so which staff is your favorite?
they got activated from across the room because someone overpulled
how are the psykers doing
especially on that one desert map with the contagion container finale
Heretical
tis i, definitely not an inquisitor. How do you do fellow psykers
Holy FUCK that map is so fucking BIG and enemies activate from weirdly long distances there
Civil war
Favourite to play is void. Best for the team at high diff is surge
Still shit outside of subpar horde clear and good CC
if you have the 15 level and 30 level talent, you can spamm bb on haz5
Why do you keep nagging about bb doing 300dps you know that its a single hit of big damage?
People are in denial of BB shitness
i aint ever seen dmg % that low before
that map is rougher than most for some reason
we request a brainburst emote to use on gun suggesters
Brainburst could be buffed
BB has one utility: the ability to be used in safety, which is not commonly relevant, but when it is, it's clutch
agreed
1200 against unarmoured is shit when elites have 2k or more hp
And it’s affected by armour
wow, thats the actual lowest % roll i have seen thus far
bb is a snipe ability. not your main damage
i spent today playing mg12 psyker and honestly, I pulled out BB a lot more than I thought I would
psyker feats just make me depressed
So brainburst twice?
hit em with the wet noodle chainsword
You can spam bb all you want you only augment it with those perks to 600dps. Bolters can do 1000+ with no warp stack juggling. Hell I seen one guy get 2000 dps on vet
bb IS a charged up ability
chainsword without the chain
I can snipe better with voidstaff tho
its the class's defining feature
If a elite is alive long enough to BB twice, your vet isn’t doing thier job
Shoot enemy rifles, a gunner activates and suppresses you, so you BB it and then go back to shooting rifles
Also give psyker the braced autogun
no aim, safe behind cover, tracks even if enemy goes off map. all with just a sight. use it to kill bombers and snipers and specials who run away. that's crucial on heresy+.
i agree. bb is just save and has unlimited range
Or even average item rating
Explains why the class is bad beyond staffs atm
and cost no ammo
BB not one-hitting dogs though is fucked up reeee
Or your weapon
Blocked by a fence or the platforms that enemies can shoot thru
I think they changed it so that dogs and mutants can't be trivialized
Everything else just zap
In all fairness sniper on damnation has like 500 hp
lock asshole grenaders before they duck behind a corner
i dont agree actually. but oke. BB is a great snipe ability. perhaps you dont use it like that. Most psykers over use it
Remove chargeup or reduce peril cost.
everything else does: weapons and abilities that provide utility *scale with level. the direct damage ability for some reason doesn't
Surge still trivialises them
Imagine if staffs special wasnt an useless bonk and instead it let you charge and use bb
Bruh nobody is overusing bb
Brainburst is perfect for dogs
sure if you have sight, at the right range and pay attention.
yes, they are. really, they are lol
I would prefer instant cast with25% cost
before heresy
is soulblaze the same thing as purge staff?
No
wade around in malice and maybe half my heresy pugs lol
that is what annoys me the most, the absolute clunky of swapping between staff and 'hands'
many psykers overuse bb. If you kill weak enemies with bb, you overuse it
It’s the tick after you burn them
goddamn it chat, wrong reply
If you see someone spamming brainburst its probably for the penance
Basically yes
300 secs of max warp charges
why is our character not using a potent focusing tool...
i only use bb to heal my toughness 30% @burnt rampart
So like 1% the population
I barely use it because it's pretty shit on damnation. The odd sniper or something maybe if my vet hasnt one tapped it on 0.3 seconds while I'm still charging my 2 second shit damage ability
99/100 the vet will see them with the wall hacks elite sight and kill them first, while the zealot and ogryn deal with the frontline, psyker is great at dealing with stunning elites and close priority targets so it makes it easier for allies
that is not my experience. On haz5 i agree with you. Haz4 or lower, i th9iink about 80 percent of the psykers overuse bb
As soon as you get staff you’re dominating
Oui oui
hey now, first staff is trauma
Fr*nch
which is fine in 1/2
it's ok
courir et tirer is dogshit but otherwise good
trauma is what you get when you use it
its problems dont show till malice and up
I had fun with it
dont talk bad about french or I will take my baguette and my croissant and put it into a very bad place (but with a stylish and glamour french touch )
Because bb is okay on 1/2
When I got my psyker to 30 today, my first staff was a 506 trauma 😄
it's better than no staff, doesn't make it decent
But trying to place the explosion on something elevated fucks me up
Heresy psykers are usually still used to bb being useful from malice so hard to blame them really as the class completely changes between this diffs
If a psyker is using bb outside of 1 hit kills, they are wasting time
not making a case for trauma here
if you use the level 15 and level 30 talents as psyker, bb is way stronger
ok, I never try it, it is that bad ?
fair enough
Probably not the best blessings though
it's useful against bulwarks to stagger so other people can actually kill 
lol people actually spec into psyk wrath just to use bb
Still garbage and a Vet can kill anything faster than we can BB them
What is this world
Mainly find use for brain burst against ogryns and maulers, otherwise a full charged voidstrike will likely kill shit on a weak spot
doesn't work with secondary action so only good to suppress ranged you are running to
Oh my god it's still 600 dps far below useful levels in comparison to other classes
Surge staff does that too, more reliably
pedantic here but killing weak enemies also refresh stack and shield, when there's nothing else going on
What was the dump stat on Purgatus again?
The biggest counterargument against bb is shit is that randos arent the smartest
*as a purge staff enjoyer
ok ok
I spec that way to remove the warp charge loss
i know. you repeat yourself. BB is to snipe specials and elite. you can do that at a safe distance. perhaps you are not familair with that play style
which is fine
Just have a good vet in your team he’ll kill most the specials and elites with a single mag of bolter faster than you can even pull out bb
Hahaha it's still 2 bb for most elites
that is true. on haz5 there is always something on
And it’s 3 and 4 to kill a ogryn and 2 for unarmoured elites
Bolter skips most of its ready animation when you use the ability
nah it just feels like a waste of feats when your teammates just do it better
That's 4 seconds where you could be doing something else far more useful
true, it takes a lot of bb. But it is safe
Like staggering hordes so your vets can have more uptime on their guns
psyker status: the only reason the team isn't 4 vets is because there isn't enough ammo
Yep, spec into improving what makes psyker useful, not putting a crutch on the shit bit
most important are bombers snipers and maybe trappers
Pretty much
bb can be used for multiple reasons. peril generation for toughness quel for example
It’s also safe when vet deletes them in a split second
ammo scarcity gives psykers a role
(
)
Which is what happens most the time
BB is to clearn the horde from the specials and elites. Before they attack
During battle, bb is probably too slow
Just zap them
BB is to target paint in poor visibility maps
Specialists can’t even move
They get 1 shot, but you can’t see them due to horde or if you are unlucky(happens constantly) you can’t BB because half the body is behind cover
what is BB
Wtf no
you see them by pinging
yeah.
god
brainburst, psyker grenade
ok
At high levels your wasting staff peril
you want to play a game together?
I ping an elite to pick it out, i start bbing it, the veteran shoots it
every single fucking time
just one second of sight and you can safely kill a special even if it tries to run away
that's a good thing. you can focus on other stuff
And that is why we don’t use it, better off using the peril to help the frontline and let the vet do his job
Not right now work in 6 hours and I stayed up too long arguing about psykers lmao
yet somehow the veteran completely ignores every single FUCKING RIFLE
For the value I’d just zap honestly
You can use your bolt as veteran. Wanna see who kills more elites and specials. You win if i don't get 3 times more elites/specials than you
Use my friend code in my name and we can maybe tomorrow
Vet can swing by and shoot the guy’s face off
not to worry, they'll kill the other stuff too lol
zap? sniper?
except when for some reason the vet doesn't do it and your ogryn get shredded by sniper
Lmao your on
Oh sniper no
They spent a week with a faulty counter fire, so they had the ogryn killer feat instead
That’s the only one I find bb useful on consistently
my steam account is pmsag. I play on haz5
Add me on steam and I'll give you a message at some point this week
Assuming I can touch their head through the railings
Use my friend code it's in my name
footburst when
how do you keep count
Brainburst not working through railings and gaps is pain
Or cover, the moment they have cover on centre of mass, we can’t target them with bb
the ones without limbs died to the bolter
Actual agony
only see my name on the left top 😛
I'm off to bed and I am once again asking for psyker brainburst damage scaling and a rework to its feat tree
BB is hot garbage, it should be instant cast with a 25% peril cost
Make it a staff primary with aoe
I’m off to work cya
Force sword crush but with bb effect
i agree with that. On higher difficulty bb should be scaled up indeed. Still great snipe ability
It’s that shrimple
I bb if the vet is busy
Great sniping ability against snipers
Or if there's a sniper that I saw first
Also it feels really bad that without putting a bunch of feats into warp stacks you're literally playing worse by trying to maintain it
If vet is busy I just keep things off their ass
This with the caveat that theres nothing close to the team
Good for bombers
You're usually better off supporting the frontline yeah
Assuming they didn’t cleave it all in half with power sword first
Psykers should have witchsight and see all elites with a blue aura
Has anyone noticed if you have the bright blue eye color it's no longer bright after putting on head cosmetics?
Is that a bug?
toggleable, with slight peril gain
It still is
Just reload
If you hotkey your tag to your primariry action button (left click), you can tag any special/elite in any hord without hitting a special button for the tagging. Great tip to any psycker
Peer into the warp and see the corruption
Or do a mission
Ah
Why not just tag normally
best tip i can give to you all: use the same hotkey for your tag as your primariry action (left click)
MMB isn't hard to press bro
It’s like the same radius as throwing down an icon
it's right there
no time in haz4+
I don't like mmb tag
What kind of team do you play with to have no space for ping
Because I use mw down to dodge
randoms 😛
I am too used to space dodging
Lmao
Just trying to figure if my PC is bugging, but is anyone else experiencing lag today?
depends on your mouse
my mouse has a shit-tier MMB click
so i can spend more actions per minute on stuff that actually improve my performance.
Yeah that too
But it has two really nice thumbbuttons
But I learned to tag with T from vermintide and by god I'm going to keep doing that
I used to use mw down for tag
For example: I use my bb to scan for specials and elites from far away. I tag them when i find one and instant attack
And spotting
great tip for any psyker
Because I can just spam it
Why do you need to search with bb
pinging is how I search
If you can lock them you can see them
Do you only have one finger(respectfully)
Just spam ping into a crowd
ping is overpowered
^
tag your elites
the power of ping
clear specials from hordes. So hordes become more homogeneous and easier to clear
even in voice comms
pp
tag moves every time you do it
plenty of time to ping on psyker
in some maps i even clear all the specials before any team mate saw the enemy
What is their best horde clearing melee weapon?
none
I regret to inform you surge staff has a pretty mediocre target limit
I'm just trying to imagine how mmb ping could possibly hurt how fast I can play and I just
schmoving
Don't know
I know
@gilded hatch cant find you on steam
rebinds rule
I have good upkeep because I take the warp charge for cooldown thing
Give me your friend code in dms
So it’s pretty alright
Dueling sword, dagger or tac axe are all good
i got shit on mouse side buttons
dagger >good horde clearing
you mind recording the game?
play on something higher than sedition, good lord
@flint sky keep me in the loop man I want to know how this goes down
?
finally got it bois https://gyazo.com/0fee5a630c1bafe3c508bbcffc48ecc4
I will never stop linking this
44 Views. Watch combat knife is a meme weapon incapable of clutching and millions of other Warhammer 40,000: Darktide videos on Medal, the #1 Game Clip Platform.
Knife sucks.
@austere burrow I thought those were all pretty much single target
this reminds me of Elden Ring PvP challenges on discord
if you want, you can watch me live streaming?
You can punch with the knife
@karmic ivy I wish I could get that, but unfortunately you need friends that didn't quit after one week to get it.
Fuckin love punchin
Dagger and duelling sword gives you the sick movement tech
Dagger damage too reliant on ruining my mouse
- how big are your balls 2. what was it against? demonhost? level?
oh that would be nice too
So you just fly around the horde
Knife simply cannot keep up with the spawnrate on most events. It's bad.
1: big, 2 daemonhost
Knife simply has no cleave
It makes you feel good while you're using it but it's bad.
Axe too
waiting begins
To be fair they said horde clear not control
Yeah that's reasonable
@native thorn So what would you say for horde clear? like good cleaving
combat axe with cleave is my favourite horde clear as psyker. However, force sword with deflector blessing is my favourite psyker weapon
I saw a zealot run around with a knife earlier and 10% hp
I kinda treat them the same because keeping the horde controlled is usual good enough
basically the entire game
You can fight forever with a knife if you don't screw up
But if you can't kill the horde faster than it spawns during an event, what's even the point
how many mfs gonna use combat knife against horde when its a insta kill knife
You have a team lol
Dueling sword is ok isn’t it
@gilded hatch u streaming rn? what's the channel
Decently fast and has some cleave
Yeah I like dueling sword
use it on big guys, run flamer on zealot
might buy this just to have a void strike staff
strike team m25
Mk v has basically infinite push attacks
How good are the rolls on this?
Bad
Probs Mk5 axe or a dueling sword. Force sword can too with specific combo focus
wouldnt get it
Kk
"you have a team" says the other three people on my team running around and slowly dying while I actually have to kill everything for them
ok i'm in
@native thorn Ahh so a specific axe has good horde clear, most the ones i've used are single target
Knife sucks.
Haven't even touched the dueling sword yet
Idk games have been fine for me
Using dueling sword that is
But it’s still tiny
@native thorn Force sword i thought was only good single target as well, especially with the special
Nice just got my first deflector
I haven't used knife for a while
mk2 tacaxe has looping horizontal heavies
It's okay, it's basically mk1 sword but with better single-target lights and slightly worse horde-heavies
mk2 tacaxe also has bizarrely high stagger
I haven't done it myself but quite a few people in this channel mentioned a specific combo chain that works into hordes
I don't know what it is, but I regularly stagger ragers with it
who wants to join my haz5 attempts? striker team 25 please
Scriptures have the best stagger
force sword bonus points for deflector perk
This is actually really good, buy it
Not terrible honestly
dumpstatted stopping power
ghost is an amazing talent, but...
On vet that is
That lasgun legit might not be able to two-tap flak
U don't need stopping power when u 1hit 1kill in the head
Oh wait
Go play vet
On the bright side bad dailies means you can save up more for better ones next time :)
is there a reason people don't like kinetic overload
Which one is overload again
Can u transfer items between characters?
looking to do kamikaze penance, will help after
who is peek ? azeron?
Oh it's because soulblaze kinda sucks in general
I've been psending today playing mg12 gunpsyker
It might sound heretical but I prefer this to mg12 veteran
The inquisition wants to know your location
If soulblaze build was good that talent would probably be good
mans asking to be judged by the emperor
My beloved like when I'm using lasgun
mg12, my beloved 
Your beloved is a warp daemon whispering heresy in your ears
like everyone goes goo-goo-ga-ga over "zomg veteran has powersword" and I hate having to swap to that thing from my lasgun
I’m reporting you to Rannick
Swapping to force sword though? That push, that push attack, great for reorienting when I was just behind the lasgun scope
Better than some corpse god

If only it had high base stats.
I might have considered it for a moment, then... ehh.
the daily shop seems pretty horrible
Oof that base roll
carried by its blessings
Unusable
That's max rending right
But yeah that's quite garbo
its kind of a lot of coins to throw away this early on
all of these psykers on atoma prime are so fun hope a warp storm or greater daemon isnt summoned
Weekly coins are kinda garbage rn anyway
I guess you might want to stockpile them in case they become useful later
Have you tried the mystery items?
Yes
Garbage?
😔
Not to mention the stats are still random
yep. With how rare good stuff is, and how shit most of the stuff is in that shop, I'd rather always have enough to buy a top tier FSword/Mk5 Axe/Voidstrike/Purge in that shop, if I'll EVER see one.
Probability of seeing one is, apparently, about same as dropping a Ber rune in Diablo 2.
this is getting ridiculous
Yeah i agre
Might as well stockpile just in case you actually get a good roll
yea or nay
You lost half of the server with that reference lmao
on zealot
deffo not for psyker
.
My first char, been playing since beta, I've never seen chain weapons or a bolter. Ever.
Why are you asking this in the psyker channel lol
cant ask?
Psykers are smarter than zealots, duh
No you can't. Get out.
Rending on boltgun is super good though
You are no longer our sibling
No, just use the right channel
blunt instrument
i see how it is
you won't be missed. Use the right channels.
Bonus damage on unarmoured kinda useless on bolt gun
Not worth it. base stats too low to waste coins.
Yeah GTFO traitor
this is very unkind siblings...
Just use the right channels.
dont know who asked @jolly karma
He's asking a non psyker question
He isn't out sibling he is a fucking zealot
You serious maaaan.
The codex astartes does not support this action
Oof.
Get fucked.
Yours truly, Fatshark. /s
what melee weapon should I be using on diff 4+? Force Sword damage seems to fall off even though the push is super good.
This is an enlightened mind neighborhood
The rules for the discord server overrule your RP.
Stop using psyker channels for non psyker stuff.
Insane.
so it begins
kill me.
hes asking a non psyker question in the psyker channel? holy shit bro the world gonna implode
first emperor's gift since level 20 something.
please call an admin @jolly karma
and it's a laspistol
Is it too much to use the right channel? it's a button click.
has anyone recently been able to do pick n mix? progress bar doesn't update at all and I'm sure I've killed 5 different types of elites in heresy and I know i've at the very least killed 5 (but not all different types)
wait
Wtf 12 grims
I rerolled all the annoying stuff. Let me flex now:
Somebody is getting really tilted at people sayign to ask zeolot questions in the zeolot chat lol
Ez mode.
lame ass mf zealot mains in that channel though
all they talk about is eviscerator this eviscerator that
<@&735928989146939404> someone is asking me to call in Admins for non-psyker chat in psyker channel.
We've been chatting shit with the dude for hours, hardly weird for him to drop the question here as an aside
Cringe
ty for reaching out to someone who actually has credibility
nn ass mfs i swear
Bruh you put your hand up to tell the teacher they forgot about homework, didn't you
what no pussy does to a man
How many dockets
lol
Yeah, its kinda the purpose of the channel lol
Hang him
I'm not gunna like ban for it but just move it to where its relevant lmao
Heresy.
1 message and half a dozen of rant messages
Drop by ask for a gun stat
he was getting butthurt that they got after him for asking a nonpsyker question
For what it's worth, it was a single side question from someone we've been chatting with in the channel for a couple hours
ik its like pys doesnt have opinions on stuff either
thanks for addressing the issue
is this good?
YEEE
OOF!
Pretty alright yeah
But point taken
ehm, ~20k to reroll?
We only have 4 rerolls. I ghot lucky
Low mobility tho
Be the Ogryn
FUCKING HELL
GRAB IT
lmao, yeah idc really. As long is we're broadly on topic idgaf
lucky ass mf
That definitely helps the masses and hordes
whats good about it im not sure, i crafted it
The quell is nice
We got a lottery winner it seems.
I have yet to see a deflector blessing
15 block efficiency is really good too
nah imma hate on you for the next 8 posts talking about how limiting you are to this chat
Are you kidding me man 
can you exlpain why its good im not 100% sure why
Buy an accatran
Witches gunna witch!
Become psykvet
its worse than an axe
Yeah, that FS is almost top of the line, given how hard it's to get anything remotely close to that.
without crafting.
It's not even a good accatran, 330 stats
ty for being active ❤️
@lament glen
i think that bolter would work as a very good compliment to a psykers toolkit
boom, on topic bolter discussion
Fr tho people need to lay off their accatrans
you cant get bolter on phyker
So many vets fighting for ammo
When blocking with this, it looks like you'll be able to dodge 2/3 times while handling some gunner/reaper fire. That's really nice too
Accatran is fun, would rather use any of the semiautos though
How my skinny arms gonna hold a bolter
get hench
yeah can we talk about how bolter should be meta on any class? @bleak sonnet
I’d play gun psyker if I could use a bolter ngl
If only they’d cut down on the draw animation
You want a sad sight?
Purposfully using an autogun on my psyker to annoy my teamates
It has deflector
you can save that for later
still wurf
That's not very sibling of you
and -20% dmg.
I have the sword "crafted", but the lack of damage/hit really shows.
The draw animation is the only thing keeping Bolter within some semblance of balance.
Yes
yes
only Fat Shark knows
Not stats afaik
I’ll reroll my staff into a bolter
Maybe he can do that on his purple psyker sword after
everything but stats
are all blaze swords ass?
they've also said that premium currency will be earnable in-game
yes
bro that would be legendary
they all suck except for deflector
I'll eat my psyker hat
so, is there anything confirmed about blessing transfer or whatever the hell is that I keep hearing about?
yeah the first one i bought has deflector
You are my sunshine. My only sunshine. You make me happy. When skies are gray.
I just need deflector on it.
Not a fan of this one
I don't have a link but there's an interview out there about crafting system specifics from a few days ago
I'd say I got robbed if that was mine
You can't go up anymore, reroll will ahve to do
Here
Craftimg
So is void staff the best staff?
I am a fan of the surge staff.
It’s the best for me
That up to 4% power based on peril should be buffed to 4% more power per 25% peril
No matter quality
situational. Void is good for Horde clear, but sucks at cc. Surge is best for cc
Can we get the phrase *it depends" pinned to the channel
"The amount of time we've spent on the store compared to the crafting system is just a fraction. I actually think we spent too little time on the premium store—we should've spent more time getting the bundles right," said Fatshark co-founder Martin Wahlund
I think Melk's shop is actually pointless
This is my main butcher. I really hope their nerfing hands won't get to AxeMk5.
I still have no idea what kind of blessings would be best for it, or even fit it.
Something like BCR and dunno, crit?
what's the point using a week's worth of coins on ultra garbage rolls like this
ive only got one decent thing out of melk and that was a curio
it's so easy to add perks and blessings via crafting, and will be even more so once it gets fully implemented
it actually seems like gigantic waste of time
that's the neat part, you don't
Staves do specific things, if you wanna do that specific thing use that staff
i hope they add a higher level cap soon
They may put in something where store poss roll can go higher than craft
that would make it worth it
they all have their uses.... except for trauma staff
Isnt 35 vermintide's level cap
but currently it's literally just trash every 24 hours
30 iirc
35
All I need is pick n mix and its finally done
Trauma staff is the ugly friend in the group making everyone else look better
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1046869613998252163/1048785593603215440/image.png a friend got this in his shop on his ogryn
so good weps are def possible
from there
289 base power. Always look at base power. and then at whatever stats you consider most important.
psyker chat please
...
do you not understand what context is bro
as a psycher we get a fire staff?
we were talking about the shop and i posted an example of a good weapon in the shop relating to the topic at hand
Purgatus staff
its not just good, it's super powerful stuff for Ogryn specifically, that synergises with his kit. You practically run TWO level 5 toughness talents at same time with it, it's insane.
We dont have many things synergising with ours.
shoots white fire right?
Blue actually
what curio stats should i be looking for
please go talk about this in the #theorycrafting channel as it is not directly psyker related
what lvl do u unlock it?
I think I started seeing it about 12+
how do you hit weak spot with trauma?
is it better than force staff?
Still learning the meta, got this drop from Big E. Is it any good
dude chill
Nah man
You should tell the guy I responded to, then. I can't catch them all, nor should I be expected to, but I can't be faulted for trying.
Toughness regen seems to be S tier.
A separate set of grimoire resistance for weeklies.
Brutal momentum seems pretty good on it already. Mine has the one that increases the first attack's power by 15% and reduces every attack after that by 15% but I usually spam push attack, or only do the first light or heavy then block cancel.
what is a groaner?
Is corruption resist good on curios
these stats and blessings are really good, but I don't know how good is t he Mk4 itself.
What am I looking for
thanks :)
not necessarily better, but definitely good, just doesnt have the ability to shoot 'bolts' like the other staves.
you can definitely be faulted for not looking at the context of something before you speak on it
base stats 350+ just to start
if you're gonna minimod at least do it right
there is more staves?
If you feel I'm breaking rules, please feel free to report me.
Otherwise, take a seat.
Purgatus staff confuses me, I keep getting smacked in the face while trying to burn things. Q_Q
Feels like corruption resist just slows health drain
anyone else not really like voidstrike?
Me
same, push attack kinetic deflection Mk5 Axe master race.
Purg enjoyer
i dont understand the force staff
me but surge enjoyer
anyone knows if there is a community for doing penances ? been trying to pug the monstrum one so far it sucks
I never use mine, but I see a lot of psykers kick ass with it
Trauma force staff is garbage tier, don't even use it.
I don't like aiming. Surge staff is my friend
Surge gang
because being a psyker is an illusion, we're actually a bardin.
Ground aoe, flamethrowser, lightning, explody aoe orb
why do people say the purgatus staff can't crit
at least thats what ive been reading
We’re actually all vets
We just need to unlock the bolter
ogryn with a wizard hat
Surge can't either with LMB
It used to not crit in the POB, now it does
it couldn't before release patch, not it can
"Drive me closer, I wan't to hit them with my Staff"
Purg crits with the perk
guessing void is goated?
Iirc
lots of people say its best
Void and surge are generally considered best
I think I like surge a bit better
Surge best hard cc
Esp at higher levels
in all seriousness, orcs area proof you don't need high intellect to utilize reality warping powers, in Wh40k setting.
To be fair they were genetically engineered for it
At least buff flame damage to flamer level
true.
Imo purge needs a buff
Feels like I’m spraying fart sometimes
Cant wait for chaos wizards to brainburst us
Which is to say we need to put a psyker inside an ogryn
purg feels like it misses when it should hit
there are ogryn psykers
Grab a purg with good range
Damn I got got
I think max is like 21m
This is how you accidentally summon a portal to the eye of terror
Thanks for enlightening me
the animation is deceiving on left click, it's an instant cone only
No way, we don't need ammo
Yeah purg left click is pretty annoying
Does anyone ever use the special attack on their staves for anything beneficial, or is it almost always a waste? I never use mine, am I missing out on opportunity?
(MB5 iirc)
Yeah, this is what makes me wonder.
We're more squishy than other classes - Ok.
We have fuck all toughness on melee - Ok.
We have inferior melee damage options in general - Ok.
Isn't that enough price for our infinite ammo flamethrower being same damage output as zealot's.
You’re a zealot in disguise
Primary use is bonking stragglers for a giggle in between actual fights
Please move channels before I report you
At least more stagger tbh
We can block bullets and can block without spending stamina
Like pushing things over after some time
And slowing movement while they’re burning
We might be less tanky by stats but we got a lot more tools to not die imo
right click on surge worth it?
Hold rmb spam lmb
Lol
True, though off-tank class is probably not something people expected when selecting Mage archetype.
dont fully charge it. just spam it
We can do the job of basically all the other classes at 75%. But only one at a time, and you need a little breathing room.
Psyker is a swiss army knife whereas everyone else is a specialist
oh bet
Stun doesn't scale with charge
I wonder if you can tank a sniper shot on damnation with reflector and the peril block perk
this is me
no
ty
Damn I didn't know other classes had better cc, could you enlighten me
Ogryn
ogryn
in its current state Psyker jacks off all trades
Ogryn
Ogryn.
The moment devs or players figure out way to make him work without shield at higher difficulties, and work reliably, it'll be a cc god.
Ogryn
leveling my ogryn alt, realized I could kill specials faster with grenade gauntlet than psyker 
I mean, even with shield his CC is great.
Huh, fair
you pick psyker in current state to be a walking drip god
I dream of class rework every night
gg @gilded hatch
I dream I'll be able to change my psyker voice from the lunatic
Veteran has the best drip with the bomber jacket
U gonna have to delete

Loner voice is best voice
I deleted my level 30 zealot because the voice was so bad
was a close one. This map is not the best for psyker. Two round open areas. I prefer more linear path so i can kill from far
"Worship me or die!"
It was two constipated and one normal scottish girl voice
French lady is best, always babbling about Saint Messilina
yupe. voidstrike has that geometry problem
lol
Kerillian VA was enough for me tbh
were you playing with Peek @gilded hatch ? he's croteam right?
No other choice
Made a new one
head level on groups of hordes. voidstrike staff will still kill like crazy
I just quit a match with 3 sharpshooters on the load out screen.
Level 25 rn
i have the german sounding one i forgot which that is
that is loner
I don't know if it is from getting a larger blast radius/projectile size but from beta to now voidstrike gets absorbed by doorways at a hugely increased rate
that is true. On this maps probably surge is better. But you get overwhelmed faster with surge staff... you just delay death. You stun, yes. But in the mean time more enemies spawn
best one
yeah, i know. Especially if you are shooting from a higher area and/or jump upwards
I sense rage, fear, and four shortened lifespans
Speaking of Voidstrike and heads.
had that "Quell 4% peril on weaksport hit" Voidstrike.
yet, despite hitting several mobs at once in Psykhanium, it only quelled like 4%.
Going Out With a Bang is henning ruining my enjoyment of this game.
Do people actually minmax their height to voidstrike better
or is it like "quell 4% over time", with cooldown refresh each time you hit new one?
how to use voidstaff
Any else have issues with the staff ignoring your right click hold?
jump or attack from higher spot so you can head shot many at the same time
Do you run Kennetic deflection talent and Stam curious with this?
doesnt matter if you're in an open area or not, if you hit enough heads you're gonna kill enough to thin the horde drastically.
@weak galleon you were missing heads then... it works everytime when i am able to play
Buy
Buybuybuy
i crafted it
peril block is a must yes you are god at reviving
it actually is. In an round / open area, you can kill about 90%. On haz5 you can die by one back stab enemy.
do i get Stam curious or thats not needed?
Just clutched a Heresy run by diving solo into a horde and picking up my entire team.
what do you mean with peek?
Kinetic Deflection is better on non-Force weapon due to much higher passive Quell , but since you got a nice practically top tier FSword here with Block efficiency etc, might as well try Kinetic.
hp and wound are what you want
oh wait... I thought you were playing with @flint sky
i did not pay attention who joint 😛
K, will take in account.
thanks, what ranged weapon and curious would you go?
It depends.
Im not sure if this sword knows what it wants to do
If you play malice and below everything goes
sorry but no deflector = no bueno
Holy shit +damage against carapace
It wants to kill. It craves blood, as is the calling of all weapons
voidstrike or surge, and Hp and wound for curios
Kinda what I want, but idk if the damage is worth
But definitely block efficiency on curios if you run Deflection FSword.
these are my 2 staffs
Ayo holy shit
- you already got that +15% build into your sword.
worth?
not worth
Only thing i dont like is low quell speed on it
In general surge gets more value
ok cheers
But if you're not pushing very high difficulties it's up to taste
a bit more burn for purgatus would be nice
Burn is just the tick no?
that's what I'm running as Voidstrike and that lack of Blast Radius radius kinda feels, tbh. Even if it's like 10% actual stat difference from 80%, afaik.
DoT yea
It stacks the DoT though so it gets really good with high burn
Not that impactful afaik
thoughts https://i.imgur.com/ezO8mSp.png ?
pass
yea
Run n gun garbo too
most important thing is 370+ base stats
Repeatedly dodge while successfully hitting things for lots of crit.
So this thing is terrible?
yes
"Oh I'll just brain burst this bulwark"
this blessing any good for 4-5s?
Rekon its worth? Ill get it, my current one is pretty avg.
Its the first Yellow Ive seen in the store.
Actually, not sure about terrible.
There's some kind of synergy between Surge and crits.
and that thing got crits
Im sure this is highly debated. Why would I take flame staff ever over Zap staff in higher Difficulties?
331 = missing 69 stats points from max
Take zap
https://i.imgur.com/YV2AiQM.png this is the other staff i have fully upgraded i have 2 others but haven't upgraded them yet
You generally spam surge without charging so not amazing
you shouldnt
i run damnation with a blue axe and blue staff, save your money for god rolls later on
if you have to ask if its good, its not good enough
So, the best would be to look for a white item in the store, that has a high af base. Then craft it up myself?
Because you want to burn down hordes while staying behind Ogryn shield, with your shots not being blocked by Crushers, while also retaining some fort of limited CC via left click spam.
He knows when you are sleeping, he knows when you're awake
Thinking of making a pskyer. I have been hearing that their damage struggles at end game with high difficulties. Have you all found this to be true? Do they hold up at high difficulty?
Psanta
I'm running Purge on heresy for a change, and it works surprisingly well, depending on mission.
especially those endless hordes ones
use an axe and ur fine
Or do I spam mystery acquisitions, hope to get a good base.
They hold up
fr, I cant get the "going out with a bang" for the life of me. Never works
Just need more inputs
honestly, get the cliffhangr chest piece and you don't need the hood... you'll be fine from there
Comparing to vet stuffing everything with bolter
damage can be ok but you have to drop cc staff to really pump crowd damage and if ur group isnt designed for that then its rough
hunting for a new surge staff, think this one is alright?
No
How does an axe help?
damn
allows you to do damage
We do okay, but if your goal is dropping huge damage psyker probably ain't it
So does psyker become more of a crowd control class rather than elite killer?
Vets kill elites
Blue one is dope base, for it's relatively low rating of 329
vet is go to elite killer. psyker is more cc in higher levels
Honestly, all they need to do, is make BB inta kill any elite, no matter the diff but make the channel take longer the more health it has.
Make it take the 5 seconds/w/e it is but deal like 2k to Aboms. Then I can be happy to use it.
We give vets space and time to kill elites
will the blessing upgrade on consecration? not sure how big of a difference is 2m without testing it
you can do both. you can go surge for cc but spec into that lvl 30 feat that allows you to spam bb for short times, you can help pop elites when the room is flooded. if you run the 15% ability refresh on elite then its even stronger
blessing is completely meh. It's the maxed out damage/crit stats
ah
and charge rate
They asked high difficulty at which point bb gets meh
5 seconds of hoping your teammates can keep adds off you while you charge up.... not worth when a vet can kill it much faster
It helps if you don’t need to keep a horde at bay
you can kill specialists very effectively with BB, you can horde clear very well with axe, and what you cant kill fast and safely (ogryn enemies and ragers) you cc for team
Better than having to do it 3/4 times to pop something bigger than mouse.
it can still 1 shot alot of specials in 4, havent played 5 much but bb is still very strong with that feat at lvl 30. if you have a vet kill the ogryns bb can still be good. its still good for diming the sniper across the room when your vet cant get to him.
hit the horde with it
Holds up easily. Who else can block bullets and revives in the middle of a horde. Plenty of utility like that, like killing a sniper with just a sight.
DPS isn't the full story most of the time. Later on you spec into CC for specials, or horde clear.
not the fix needed or wanted.
Theres been heaps of talk about how to fix it. Whats the current idea?
that is actually an interesting debate about which combat axe is best for horde clear
There're very viable builds.
I know the bigger ones easily one shot trash mobs
mk5 has the best cleave on basic lights and the push attk imo
you have two types of combat axes: cleave target + cleave damage, and finesse
