psyker-class

[lethal plover]

@runic hornet yeah people need to stop the meme about purgatus visuals. they changed it

meanwhile zealot flamer is as blinding as usual

[ornate hamlet]

I've seen trauma causing knockdown as it's mode of CC from using it, and I gotta say, it's impressive for CC in that respect, and it does more damage than the voidstrike, by a couple hundred.

This would be nice if it had any wide sweeps, but it doesn't.

[lethal plover]

the axe?

[ornate hamlet]

ya

[lethal plover]

were you here in the past 2 days?

[ornate hamlet]

It only has single target.

[lethal plover]

the sweep is all we use

literally no other attack

[ornate hamlet]

Oh the push that follows the attack

?

er, the other way around

[lethal plover]

it kills everything, from zombies to ragers and maulers

with the defending and staggering that comes with it, it's the perfect defensive + offensive cycle

[dusky smelt]

I NEED PSYKER DRIP

I NEED TO LOOK LIKE A BADASS SPACE WIZARD

[lethal plover]

Future updates sibling

[ornate hamlet]

In how many hits?

On what difficulty?

[faint sigil]

damnation

[lethal plover]

damnation and heresy are good

[faint sigil]

also i just got brutal momentum and it slaps

such a nice blessing

[ornate hamlet]

Im not getting 1hit kills with this...

[lost pike]

Not bad

[thorny crypt]

idk wats the limbsplitter perk , but this axe is killing everything in my game atm , great fun

[flat shadow]

what is cc by the way

[lethal plover]

you don't need to kill in one hit, as you see in the video, they just die since there's nothing they can do to you. And this is for an unupgraded axe

[neat axle]

Crowd Control

[flat shadow]

ah

[lost pike]

crowd control

[lethal plover]

because the cycle is so safe, you're literally better at surviving a horde than power sword

power sword has shit for defense

[ornate hamlet]

So is this a good roll for an axe then?

[robust meteor]

this feels GREAT

[lethal plover]

380 base rating is the dream yeah

[flat shadow]

i could use that diamantine

i really like the default sword actually but even after making it purple everything else just has higher stats

[robust meteor]

bought this one for the posterity

[ornate hamlet]

Here's the traight I got with it:

Now to grind out more plasteel

[long wharf]

if trauma laid down a patch of soulfire that enemies would stagger when going into it, it'd be a unique form of CC (area denial) and thus useful

[lost pike]

I can't not use a force sword as a psyker

[bleak sonnet]

hate u

[robust meteor]

has anyone noticed input lag today?

[bleak rock]

any groups going to get cliffhanger?

[robust meteor]

specifically with weapon swap into blocking

[lethal plover]

No. Check your background processes

And Internet

[robust meteor]

its intermittent

[scarlet breach]

Anyone else ever look at their psyker's shop and think "Yeah this is a good lasgun, I'm on my veteran." Then purchase it only to realize you're a fool.

[flat shadow]

i use the laspistol on my psyker idk

its fun

play your way

[lost pike]

lmao. I have yet to buy one but I have gotten sad at the realization that I was not on my Vet

[slender wharf]

Hey guys why do you play psyker

[lost pike]

Because they are fun

[flat shadow]

i like that i can crush a big dudes head

im a sniper

[robust meteor]

bc i like weapon swapping

[west current]

Is there a way to resist the dmg that goes straight to your health even when you have toughness?

[flat shadow]

what kind of damage does that

explosive?

[lost pike]

Psyker is Versatile. Good CC. Doesnt need ammo usually so save it for the others

[flat shadow]

don't stand near bombs

[lost pike]

good damage

[flat shadow]

idk

[robust meteor]

psyker can carry runs or support runs

[ashen bear]

Yo is this any good?

[scarlet breach]

On higher difficulty you're almost locked into using one staff or another, because otherwise you're a worse veteran. Outside of that, they feel nice.

[robust meteor]

but can't carry like a vet

[west current]

Not sure, just happens frequently now on my psyker, will have near full toughness and dmg going straight to hp

[flat shadow]

hmm

[west current]

Can even be trash mobs

[flat shadow]

if its corruption damage it might just be the grimoires

[sonic basin]

But why would I use anything else than my staff? I am a psyker to be a space wizard not a boring gunman

[flat shadow]

same with standing near an angry daemonhost

i like gunslinging as psyker

[scarlet breach]

For some variety, but cosplaying Palpatine is pretty neat.

[lost pike]

Space Gandalf

Sword and Staff

[scarlet breach]

Dueling sword feels amazing with a surge staff, less amazing with a purgatus but still nice.

[flat shadow]

i don't have the last two perk slots so i can't do much with my peril yet

so for now i just pistol and sword

[uneven sparrow]

Customer satisfaction

[flat shadow]

the sword that can parry

catachan mk1 i think

i need to figure out what it's capable of parrying though

[wise ruin]

now we know whats inside a psykers head

just a void

[faint sigil]

thats actually one of the guards in the hub

[wise ruin]

i bet hes a psyker

[faint sigil]

arent we all

[sleek herald]

hmmm

[ornate hamlet]

was able to double ability four times in one mission just now lol

[echo parrot]

Left better

Can always redo perks/blessings but stats are forever

[sleek herald]

yeah, but less dmg and right one maybe has 27% cleave, but brutal momentum = infinite cleave

[echo parrot]

Like I said, you can always replace those once those features come out, so buy it just so you have it when the time comes

[sleek herald]

also block attack spam is enhanced by limbsplitter

so right better

[echo parrot]

Then dont get it

And hope you get another one with high stats later when you can extract/apply blessings

[warm meteor]

Anabel losing some patience :p

[echo parrot]

Or just buy it just to have it

If you actually play the game you should have more than enough dockets

[sleek herald]

I have both

it was emperors gift

[echo parrot]

Then keep using the right until you roll the left well or can replace its blessings

This isnt rocket science

[warm meteor]

Do we have a dual wield weapon on any class yet?

I cant think of any

[echo parrot]

Nope

Prob not going to get it either

[warm meteor]

Lightning claws XD

[echo parrot]

Felinid claws

[lost pike]

more power force weapons

[echo parrot]

You mean force weapons right

[warm meteor]

More force weapons

[pearl drift]

Okay I just found an insane... bug? I think it's a known interaction but I've never seen it used this way.

There's a knife passive that gives +4% to kill on heavy strike chain up to 5 times

instantly a kill a human sized enemy, rather

and I just stacked it, and then switch to purgatus, blast away once, switch back to knife

and each tick of flame can proc the instant kill

Gonna try to make a video quick

[bright river]

that's kinda known

[heavy zealot]

is there a ui moodle that tells you your warp stacks? I just started rolling psycher so Im mostly just having fun playing it as a sort of dnd multiclass rn

[bright river]

even if you stack bleed on a target, and then keep hiting another one

your proc can kill the bleeding target instead of the one you're hitting

[dusky smelt]

@heavy zealot bottom left has buff/debuff icons

warp stacks has a number on it

[heavy zealot]

yeah is there documentation on their meaning ingame anywhere? because I think one of them is coherence but I have to suss it out

[bright river]

I see, this is something different

[dusky smelt]

ps watch it when the slug boss is spewing at you its icon is biugged to hell

theres one with a counter thats coherency warp stacks is easy to figure out just bb someone and itll show up

[bright river]

Or maybe it's not, so if you soulfire a lot of targets and then keep up your 4% to kill stack by attacking some enemies with the knife, they'll all get proced eventually

[inland sphinx]

'Ello spark'eads

Ogryn man here, me bored so offering to help with getting cool drip

I will: punch a demonhost in the face and hold my shield against it until it dies.

You can: brain burst it to death and recieve drip.

that is all, hit me up if u want help

[night marten]

holy shit, that's a wild interaction. looks like the currently active weapon effects apply to any damage performed, regardless of whether it was initiated by another weapon

[pearl drift]

yeah, it's just the DOT applying the knife passive. So it's the same interaction.

but it's much more powerful with the insta kill than the bleed thing

[bright river]

would work with veteran bleed grenade as well 🤔

[lethal plover]

they said they fixed unintended weapon effects when swapping in patch notes

apparently their job is not over

[violet fossil]

TIL, you can't blow yourself up unless you use an ability/warp weapon while already at 100% peril
this is probably already well known but I figured I'd share

[night marten]

fully charge a surge staff at 90% peril do it

[lethal plover]

Don't tell them about infinite purgatus

[acoustic spade]

Where can I find the actual different modifiers that difficulty gets affected by?

[violet fossil]

Bold of you to assume I'd ever touch a surge staff again.

[acoustic spade]

The other way around

where can I find how difficulty affects what modifiers

that sentence sounded more sane in my head before I typed it

[night marten]

not sure what you mean by modifiers

[narrow blade]

Anyone want to do Psyker Penances join me in Strike Team 26

[acoustic spade]

enemy health etc

[night marten]

ah. I think it's just enemy health goes up, enemy damage goes up, and enemy spawn rate goes up

[heavy zealot]

tyty I haven’t got the familiarity to have that situational awareness due to getting used to the class in combat and positioning to get those bursts w/o dying also not exploding at random

[night marten]

and wounds go down? don't remember

[brave vale]

How good? HOw much does charge rate matter

[acoustic spade]

But by how much?

[night marten]

you can test specific values of enemies in the meatgrinder with different difficulties set

[night marten]

it's pretty good. charge rate kinda hurts, but who cares considering you rolled arguably the best blessing on it too

[brave vale]

thanks fam

[acoustic spade]

I know but it'd be easier if there was a resource where someone had already mathed that stuff (and I know by like 99% certainty that there is I just dont know where)

[raw otter]

devs are aware of this bug and it will be fixed

[night marten]

oh I haven't heard of a resource that breaks it down into easy-to-digest percentages, but let me know if you find it!

[raw otter]

haymaker when procced and you switch to ranged still work
and it can also kill teammates

[brave vale]

Just curious, what is the stat that we dont care about for void staff and staffs in general? (The dump stat i think they call )

[heavy zealot]

is there a bug tracker for the game to help with that or see what they know about?

[night marten]

depends on the staff. surge has it easiest, really only cares about the last two stats, though damage and crit are nice too I guess

[hearty dagger]

It's time to sit in psyker chat for 2 hours and go to sleep at 3 AM because i can't be trusted to have a decent sleep schedule :D

[raw otter]

it is acknowledged in the official forums of fatshark so the devs pretty know about

[brave vale]

Void staff dump stat?

[heavy zealot]

oh cool cool

[night marten]

if you had to pick one, probably charge rate

[brave vale]

ty

[night marten]

purge I think really needs everything to be good

[sleek herald]

47 mission to go uhh

[night marten]

gotta pump those numbers up

[wraith wren]

Did you guys get the heresy headpopping penance by chance or did you actually try with premades?

[hearty dagger]

just run 47 missions

[night marten]

premades is easier, but you can also do it with bots at the beginning of a level with the first pack of elites (and restart if you don't get it)

[sleek herald]

by chance, it was in the metalfab disruption mission (I think), I just went to a high ground and I've seen a few gunners and shotgunners

few pops later got the penance

[keen pawn]

i mean... its an axe tho

[night marten]

hey, can I get a godroll purge staff? this is getting ridiculous

I mean for real

or even FS

[brave vale]

i heard the burn on it sucks so it doesnt matter

[night marten]

I actually suspect that's the case

but if it gets tweaked, I wouldn't want to intentionally pick one with a low burn over another

[sleek herald]

I'm trying purge with soulblaze build now and on big hordes it slaps hard, but other than that it's almost useless and is leaving me wish I had voidstrike

[sonic aspen]

I love when upgrading works in your favor

[night marten]

any non-trauma staff is viable, just pick the one you like the most based on rolls/playstyle/preferred melee

[unique oar]

which one?

[night marten]

left imo

[spare niche]

Idk I like that blessing on the left one better tbh

[unique oar]

perks on the right one are a bit better iguess?

[spare niche]

Much better

As your channeling your secondary attack it would benefit u more

[unique oar]

sustained fire gives more damage on later on charges no?

[bleak tulip]

no it only works on left click

[night marten]

primary fire only

[spare niche]

[bleak tulip]

left is better

[unique oar]

isee

thanks guys (:

[spare niche]

[night marten]

very much not worth

actual melk scam lol

[spare niche]

what stats would be good for the surge staff?

mine atm

[night marten]

warp res/quell spd primarily

[brave vale]

I was up last night and i forgot i got this but this is amazing right?

[spare niche]

op

i think

LOL

So it is? Is this worth consecrating?

[dusky lantern]

i think so lmao

[brave vale]

Thanks

[celest phoenix]

do it for science.

i only said that because "science was typing..."

[brave vale]

lmfao, i thought there was something i needed to test

[candid hawk]

Yes id say this staff is pretty good. I personally dont like surge but i would upgrade just for the build opportunities

[brave vale]

fuck its gonna cost a lot of coins, but i will do what i must

I just want to reroll my crap man :(

[abstract dew]

Don't think too hard sparkheads. Ogryn smart that way. Learn lots from Ogryn.

[void terrace]

these penances truly are pain

[thorn comet]

can psykers get knives?

[spare niche]

ye

[brave vale]

They said that they werent happy with the crafting system they had in place and had to scrap it because once a crafting system is released its hard to change it

I believe them

[spare niche]

if they are making it better ill wait

[brave vale]

and Im glad that they scrapped it to make something better rather than release something shitty

[teal cargo]

What can we craft rn?

Besides upgrading rarity?

[brave vale]

Im speculating that what they had originally was close to VT2 crafting system and that they decided to make it better

[teal cargo]

I havent done like any crafting

[spare niche]

you can upgrade ur weapons but not change anything on it yet

[empty granite]

Nothing

[teal cargo]

oof cant reroll anything?

[brave drift]

Take?

HELL YEAH.

[magic chasm]

When a sparky blows themselves up, I always do a bit of tea bagging before I pick them back up. Just so THEY know that I know they blew themselves up

[spare niche]

not atm

[brave vale]

HOLY THATS A PERFECTO ONE RIGHT

[empty granite]

Just rarity

[teal cargo]

Man I hope crafting comes out soon

its kinda sketch

If anyone wants to hear my 120+ hours of opinions on the Psyker specific weapons, feel free to read:
https://www.reddit.com/r/DarkTide/comments/zdy2d2/semicomprehensive_guide_to_psyker_weapons_staves/

[olive ember]

How useful is corruption resist over damage reduction etc

[teal cargo]

Rng hope you get good blessings and perks does not sound good

At least VT2 once you got the highest rarity weapon rolling what you want on it wasnt that bad

[brave drift]

Ikr.

Sadly they're going to have increasing costs per re-roll in Crafting

[teal cargo]

Increasing costs per reroll wtf

[brave drift]

Yeah lol

it should be mentioned in the Crafting Blog Post.

[teal cargo]

Man this just sounds worse and worse

does it cap out?

[long wharf]

that sounds like typical money-sink design, tbh

[teal cargo]

or just increase forever?

[night marten]

god it's so good

[teal cargo]

Sounds like what id expect from a Gacha lol

[brave drift]

No idea.

[night marten]

I think that's just referring to rerolling perks

[brave drift]

Yeah.

I hope.

[night marten]

not apply perks you've cannibalized from other weapons

[brave drift]

That does sound better.

[night marten]

not sure why anyone would take the straight reroll approach, I'm guessing cannibalization will be more expensive overall.

[brave drift]

Right now I really want a reason to pick up Grims and Scrips at level 30, that's not for Weeklies.

It's just pointless

[long wharf]

WTF game, you go weeks without giving me a new force sword, and now this in the coin shop?

[bright pike]

Greetings fellow psyker memesmains

[brave drift]

I don't play my level 30 characters, just levelling the other classes instead.

[brave vale]

Dude I sort of want them to introduce perks on the relics that increase crafting mats gained as reward

Farm lord

[brave drift]

They should just overall buff drops for higher difficulties.

The increase is paltry.

[echo parrot]

Rise rise rise rise rise

[night marten]

I like going for the class penances, but other that total mission completions you can run out of objectives pretty fast

[olive ember]

Force sword traits after deflector you want slaughterer or quell peril on repeated weakspot hit

[brave drift]

They did increase experience and docket gain on Malice+

[brave drift]

I already got most of them anyway.

Except for stuff like the BB a Monstrosity one.

[long wharf]

I've decided to not bother with Pick n Mix for now

[brave drift]

or Ogryn's Bull Rush 6 Ogryns

[olive ember]

I think they did a few patches ago but still not worth much once you hit the grind phase

[night marten]

gotta knock them all out except lifeleech 4/5

[teal cargo]

what you do if you upgrade your forcesword and dont roll Deflector?

[long wharf]

cry

[brave drift]

Deflector isn't a must to me anyway.

I'm fine.

[bright pike]

So, is anyone in chat rn that runs either Duelling Sword or Combat Axe? I historically have only run force sword and it works well, but I want to keep my eyes open for if something with good base stats rolls by in the coins shop 😌 I know there are different MK versions of these and I know there were some opinions about what works best for damnation runs but I don't know /what/ those opinions are yet cause I just hit 30 yesterday :3c

[brave drift]

Frankly I'd take Exorcist actually.

[olive ember]

Keep it and roll a new one

[void sage]

i like dueling sword for hords and palpatine staff for specials/elites in heresy

[teal cargo]

whats a good one to upgrade?

[long wharf]

can't wait to doctor this up when the crafting system releases

[teal cargo]

like high rating?

[void sage]

force sword doesnt clear hordes enough

[burnt python]

MK V is preferred model for both s word and axe

[olive ember]

dueling sword for mobility and antax axe for damage

[burnt python]

mk V axe is probably the best melee for psyker atm

[teal cargo]

Really the best melee?

[olive ember]

Best horde clear

[burnt python]

its very good and psyker's peril blocking feat negates its weaknesses

allows you to spam push attack

[teal cargo]

nice

yea the push attack cleave looks no joke

[long wharf]

push attack still costs you stamina though

[burnt python]

i run a +3stam curio with it

[bright pike]

:O Good to know! Now, aren't there two different axes? Antax and Achlys?

[teal cargo]

pretty safe and lotsa dmg

[olive ember]

Force sword deflector comes in a lot more clutch tbh

[bright pike]

What makes antax better? And also what about the MK5 of those two melee weapons are preferrable?

[teal cargo]

+3 stam curio?

👀

[olive ember]

Mk 5 antax is the only axe with a good cleave combo

[teal cargo]

How important is that?

[burnt python]

move sets differ, mk V is the best on b oth imo - preference to some extent

[burnt python]

it's not super important but gives me a lot more leeway to spam push attack

[bright pike]

Can any other weapon actually get deflector 🤔 I see that it is listed for other melee weapons in the build editor but idk if that's verified or not

[olive ember]

Push attack on antax is rly good but idk if it’s worth bringing 3 stam curios

[teal cargo]

some like mk4 dueling sword

[burnt python]

i run 1 stam curio and have no issues at all

[olive ember]

Haven’t seen any other weapon with deflector so no

[teal cargo]

only force sword has deflector

[bright pike]

Okay good to know ^=^ re: deflector

[olive ember]

I run force sword in psyker cuz funny deflector and then I run antax on my zealot lmao

[teal cargo]

But it has slow passive quell

[teal cargo]

so you cant block as long as the others

[bright pike]

Cleave combo meaning Blessings right? What are the preferred ones for that in your experience? I know trying to get both with good base stats is really unlikely rn but I'm trying to look for at least one 😌

[teal cargo]

and push gives you peril for like no reason

[long wharf]

well, it's not for no reason

[teal cargo]

cos fs push doesnt seem any better than other pushes

[long wharf]

you're using warp power to push

[bright pike]

I find it's less of an issue cause I take the feat for Lv 5 where it's 10% chance to quell 10% peril on a kill, when you're mowing down hordes of enemies and not taking damage with unlimited dodges

[burnt python]

force staff move set feels real bad on 4/5 in my experience

[olive ember]

Cleave combo as in the light attack combo has the best cleave attacks

[burnt python]

force sword rather

[bright pike]

Oh okay ^=^! Thank you so much for clearing that up for me!~ I'm still doing my best to learn everything

[teal cargo]

I don like doing light + Heavy.

[olive ember]

Blessings you want I think it’s called decimate

[teal cargo]

Kinda annoying

[bright pike]

I see this interesting one in the shop rn. It's not 380 but not terrible, and Brutal Momentum seems helpful for cleave

[teal cargo]

Much prefer just light spamming or heavy spamming 😆

[burnt python]

mk 8 is supposed to be solid too, have not trie dpersonally, and brutal momentum is very good

[olive ember]

You want these two blessing on the combat axe imo

Also make sure it’s an antax axe

[night marten]

it's decent, lack of Finesse hurts but the blessing makes up for it

[burnt python]

yes those are the 2 best blessings

[olive ember]

It’s also not an antax axe reeee

[teal cargo]

are you gonna upgrade your axe?

[bright pike]

Got it, thank you >w<!

[burnt python]

btw why the hell does this blessing exist wh en decimator is a thing

it's just worse decimator lol

[bright pike]

I have saved this :O appreciated!!! Antax makes that big of a difference hey?

[undone quiver]

Holy cow it really does just work that way

This feels like degenerate play lol

[lethal plover]

[bright pike]

This one isn't top tier, but I have 8 minutes to decide if I should pick it up or not just in case 🤔 I have no clue on what best Blessings are for Duelling sword considering you get one to be mobile

[olive ember]

Push attack spam and light attacks are both all horizontal cleave attacks which makes it amazing for horde clear

[burnt python]

rampage & rending are best on dueling imo

[olive ember]

The push attack also staggers ragers mid combo

[night marten]

this is pretty good, don't care as much about the mobility stat imo

[wise hemlock]

what weapons should i level with when starting out

[bright pike]

wow that's zesty

[lethal plover]

psyker tank gang

[teal cargo]

Just push attack spam? 👀

[lethal plover]

"leave the frontline to me. backline too"

[teal cargo]

Psyker the IB 💀

[olive ember]

Though tbh you don’t rly need to push attack spam on anything

Unless you are getting swarmed

[bright pike]

"actually just leave I'm gonna solo this run"

[olive ember]

It’s faster to just lmb spam imo most of the time until you see a rager or are on the thick of things

[spare niche]

how does this work?

[olive ember]

Then again I run the antax on zealot so stamina is a lot scarcer

[long wharf]

the quell speed makes it bad

[burnt python]

push attack > light, repeat is how i usually play it vs hordes

[long wharf]

very, very bad

[teal cargo]

light spam also good horde clear?

[loud violet]

I'm having

terrible luck with teams today

[olive ember]

If you have decimator yeah

If you don’t it’s still good just you have to be careful with position unless you start push attacking

[ornate hamlet]

https://tenor.com/view/hands-rubbing-gif-22253060

[bright pike]

oh lmao I forgot I ended up getting this one from rewards that I never paid attention to x3

[long wharf]

I find that whenever I use a melee weapon other than force sword, I end up missing the power-up nuked strike the force sword has

[teal cargo]

What if you got Limbsplitter💀

[olive ember]

Sorry not decimator I meant brutal momentum

[undone quiver]

I'm killing stuff with a melee weapon like some zealot

[olive ember]

Lmao throw that axe in the trash unless it’s got good stats then save it and pray for re roll in the future

[burnt python]

limbsplitter is fine, not best but its not terrible

unless you plan to spam lmb

[teal cargo]

Trashcan axe

[burnt python]

push attacks reset the "chain"

decimator + brutal momentum is ideal still

[olive ember]

On zealot you def rely on the lights more than the push attack imo due to stamina restrictions

[olive ember]

Let’s be honest we talk about literally every class here

[teal cargo]

i thought Zealot uses Thunder hammer

[olive ember]

Some do not everyone though

[teal cargo]

It does look super cool

[burnt python]

thunder hammer is kind of like force sword, its fine for filling a specific niche but pretty poor as an all arounder

[spare niche]

lmao just got this in a roll

[teal cargo]

They charge it up and bonk something

[olive ember]

Thunder hammer, eviscerator, and antax are all good

Antax is still the best horde clear tho lmao

[teal cargo]

Zealot gets power sword?

[olive ember]

Nope

Vet only

[teal cargo]

wtf

[long wharf]

they should, but no

yeah, it makes no sense

[teal cargo]

why does vey get one?

[long wharf]

because the devs love Vets

[teal cargo]

But melee class do not?

[long wharf]

Vets are favored class

[burnt python]

ya vet is fatsharks love child lol

[teal cargo]

What are Psykers?

[burnt python]

black sheep

[long wharf]

decent?

[teal cargo]

fatsharks unwanted foster kids?

[olive ember]

To be fair the power sword only good against hordes

[loud violet]

Jealous

[burnt python]

Yes, mobility & cleave are the preferred dump stats so that is very solid

[loud violet]

😔

[olive ember]

So zealots would prob still go for the eviscerator or hammer

[spare niche]

just came in the store. thoughts?

[loud violet]

Kinda meh

[olive ember]

It’s not bad but it’s not good

[lethal plover]

axe mobility is a meme

[long wharf]

shame about the damage, but damage isn't necessary

[spare niche]

https://tenor.com/view/fifty-fifty-redd-foxx-fred-sanford-sanford-and-son-so-so-gif-17869387

[long wharf]

that said, it is nice to be able to kill things surging

[lethal plover]

that said

[loud violet]

This trauma staff in store

lmao

big aoe

big damage

once a year

[lethal plover]

I don't think anyone has to endure such low roll

[teal cargo]

Why do vets do so much dmg with guns

[loud violet]

Their ability increases dmg by 50%

[lethal plover]

ult increases 50%

[teal cargo]

When I use a gun doesnt do much

[burnt python]

my meme staff is actually pretty good, it deletes elites lol

[teal cargo]

💀

[woven crow]

How much do I need to be keeping up bb charges to make psyker work? I fucking hate it.

[loud violet]

That's actually excellent

[teal cargo]

You ignore it

[burnt python]

you can 100% ignore them with minimal drop in effectiveness

[loud violet]

if you combine it with passive quell

[lethal plover]

unless you're crazy you just use psychic communion and gain 6 stacks for free

[olive ember]

Ult increases ranged damage by 50%, with counter fire it also increases weak point damage by 25%

[burnt python]

i just switch to my axe while peril quells, it works great

[teal cargo]

Psyker is for support and tank 😆

[olive ember]

With the bigger they are it also increases ogryn and boss damage by 50%

[loud violet]

still wokring on

getting a decent axe

[teal cargo]

Wtf so you just destroy bosses with the pew pew?

[lethal plover]

"my class has biggest DPS"
"help the dog is on me"

[sick veldt]

fuckin finally. this'll have to do, i'm not checking the shop anymore 😄
consecration time

[long wharf]

that'll definitely do

[olive ember]

Run the 4% on kill, run kinetic flayer for 10% bb chance on hit, forget about stacks they aren’t important besides for the extra peril resistance

[burnt python]

nice, i'm jealous of that one

[ornate hamlet]

thats a good clean staff, right?

[olive ember]

What Garbo traits you think it will get

[sick veldt]

i'm sure they'll capitulate and give us some way to change these modifiers/stat bars. i hope, i pray. time will tell lmao

[olive ember]

No way will the game be nice enough to give you good traits

[burnt python]

traits don't really do shit for surge anyways

[sick veldt]

it'll probably somehow give me the ogryn grenade trait or whatever idk lmao

[teal cargo]

The empwror providez

[long wharf]

he'll get weak spot damage on it

"the empuwu prowides"

[solid lake]

Coming to think of it, has anyone seen a stat above 80% on any weapon at all?

[empty granite]

I suppose you're right. I usually ignore the quell peril on the sword because I'm not usually on the sword when I need to quell.

[lethal plover]

locked

probably for future expansions

[solid lake]

Ok

[sick veldt]

which dueling sword mk you guys like the most

[vernal imp]

which one, gang?

[olive ember]

My theory is that red weapons will have 100%

Whenever they show up

[empty granite]

No. 80 is the cap right now. But I have seen at LOW as 10%

[olive ember]

And didn’t mean to reply oops

[lethal plover]

mk 5 but it's the axe

[olive ember]

First one imo

[long wharf]

reds will probably have new modifiers cap of 400 with individual modifier cap of 90

[vernal imp]

disregard mk5 axe meta, embrace dueling sword fun

[olive ember]

The stat scaling isn’t linear so losing 20% warp resist for minor damage,blast, and quell speed gain ain’t worth it imo

[raw otter]

btw it's possible to brain burst infinitely even after 100% peril without exploding

[long wharf]

how?

[raw otter]

kinda weird

[long wharf]

and also - we need a feat that ups our passive quell speed

[peak jacinth]

do all the tier one perks work as their supposed too?

[empty granite]

You mean passive while using a force weapon?

[raw otter]

i dont say it cause it would be against the rules
but it's been acknowledged so it will be fixed next patch prob

[vernal imp]

just have a non force weapon out

[olive ember]

Define supposed to

[long wharf]

yes, passive with force weapon out

[empty granite]

It's honestly not even worth spamming BB like that

[long wharf]

it makes no sense for passive quell to be so much faster with a non-force weapon

[peak jacinth]

oh just what it says in the description

[vernal imp]

if force weapons had same passive quell speed as non-force, what would be the point of "quell speed" stat

[olive ember]

Then yeah all the traits work I think

[raw otter]

seems nice to do it without quelling tho

[cobalt tartan]

you can quell to 97% and keep brain bursting without exploding

[long wharf]

well I already knew that

[olive ember]

That’s not the bug

[long wharf]

that's not what he meant

[empty granite]

I think it's supposed to be a balance thing. There's a feat that gives damage increase with high peril, so the slower quell is probably meant to make it easier to keep the high damage

[olive ember]

Does anyone even use that trait

[raw otter]

its not what i meant

[cobalt tartan]

ah the actual bug

[olive ember]

It’s just kinda bad

[raw otter]

i you can BB even after 100% without exploding

[peak jacinth]

so when it says warp attack in the description does it mean any staff or just brain burst?

[long wharf]

void users should

extra damage is extra damage

[olive ember]

Staff, brain burst, force sword special

Iirc

[vernal imp]

no, because it only works with force weapons, and you would rather have peril resist to spam more

[burnt python]

its still bad on void

[olive ember]

You only use the 2nd one with voidstrike tho

[lost pike]

The bonus effect makes it better and really, it still quells itself decently

[olive ember]

Voidstrike doesn’t need the extra damage, purge and surge benefit from peril resist more than damage

[burnt python]

"extra damage" is always a trap in games like this, it's not nearly as good as it sounds unless its altering breakpoints

[lethal plover]

same infinite purgatus trick then

[olive ember]

So the more weapon damage on high peril is kinda just

Not good

[lethal plover]

DPS

"I need class with highest DPS"
"help the dog is on me"

[olive ember]

Just play vet if you want dps kekw

[long wharf]

it's not a bad idea for each class to have a dps option

[burnt python]

theres like 2 enemies in the game where dps is even relevant lol - for 95% of the shit you kill breakpoints are king

[lethal plover]

what goes into the game is a bunch of different factors

[undone quiver]

What are good stats for axe

[lethal plover]

offense, defense, speed, how well it staggers each enemy etc

power sword has high DPS but shit defense

[olive ember]

Damage, first target, and then after penetration and cleave, mobility is the dump stat

Though honestly the dodge on the antax is pretty nice as well

[burnt python]

my axe is near max all bars except 40% cleave and feels great

i think cleave is probably more important for zealot when you can't push spam

[lethal plover]

there is a hidden minimum and maximum for each stat. see in inspect

[loud violet]

So while the axe thing might be 'meta'

[lethal plover]

it wouldn't be like complete trash, but with luck it's not too hard to get >60 for all stats

[loud violet]

The force sword being able to drop 1k nukes

repeatedly

is kinda cool

[burnt python]

it's our best optionf or single target dps

but single target dps just isn't good in this game, and other classes do it better

[lethal plover]

I would say more important than DPS

is that the force sword special sticks to dogs and mutants and stunning them

control is very important. more so than damage.
when dog is on you no amount of DPS matters

[olive ember]

Force sword is ultimate utility, it’s got a good shove and decent push attack, has deflector, has elite killing power

[loud violet]

Honestly as a psyker I spend most of the time dealing with big enemies for my team

Yeah, I'm gonna reject axe meta

[solid lake]

Also IDK about that, the Force Sword deletes sanction redactus targets

[loud violet]

definitely not just I got a good force sword

[olive ember]

I wouldn’t call it meta the axe is a side grade imo

[solid lake]

Which axe we talking about, the Atrox Mark...?

[loud violet]

Good stabby stabby

[olive ember]

I run force sword on psyker too, but axe murderer zealot is always fun

[burnt python]

V

[olive ember]

Antax V

[loud violet]

Yeah

I just don't feel it

[olive ember]

And only the Antax V

All the other axes are just downgrades to the Antax V

[loud violet]

And axe can't benefit from our

[olive ember]

Except maybe the tactical axe but

[loud violet]

psyker trait

[lethal plover]

mk 5

[ebon jolt]

Are force guns a thing in Warhammer 40k? Can I shoot warp bullets and quell peril to reload?

[lethal plover]

it benefits fully from peril block

only psyker can really spam and not care about stamina

because we don't need stamina

[loud violet]

But not

[olive ember]

Though even with just lmb spam the axe still cleaves through hordes

[loud violet]

cus it's not a force weapon

[olive ember]

You don’t run that either way

Always run peril resist imo

[lethal plover]

^

peril resist is crucial for peril block

your peril is everything

[loud violet]

Idk

how you guys are blocking that much

I never find myself blocking

[lethal plover]

the difference between tanking and dying at certain points

[brave drift]

Think he means the Peril on Block perk

[loud violet]

I know

[olive ember]

Ya don’t need to but peril resist is just always better

[loud violet]

Who decides what's better

[lethal plover]

in a perfect world no enemy gets to you and you never have to block
but this game isn't a perfect world. in fact the game starts when shit is thrown at you, and the final test is when you're the last one left

[loud violet]

Far as I'm concerned your weapons and traits will vary by team composition and playstyle

[lethal plover]

I solo carry revive a lot

[ebon jolt]

The emperor. 😂

[olive ember]

I do because my opinions are always valid

[loud violet]

https://tenor.com/view/reality-substitute-replaced-adam-savage-mythbusters-gif-10816078

[olive ember]

But in all seriousness tho the damage doesn’t help with breakpoints and is barely useful except against bosses

Voidstrike doesn’t need the damage to deal with hordes

Surge isn’t a damage staff

[uneven sparrow]

Adam “I love bustin myths that’s my f-in problem” Savage

[solid lake]

Purgatus is kinda sad without it but then it's kinda sad in general

[olive ember]

Flame staff generates so much warp charges with ascendant blaze youre better off running max 6 + peril resist for 36% peril resist

[lethal plover]

except against scabs
killing scab maulers / shooters is a real credit to the team

we take what we can get

[burnt python]

surge kills scab boys well even on a bad dmg roll, breakpoints

[olive ember]

Lmao my friends are two bolter zealots so maulers are a meme

[lethal plover]

you don't always run with them do you

[olive ember]

But the gunners depression

[solid lake]

I wish there were ranged weapons that were good against carapace that weren't the Bolter

[sage rivet]

Just learned u can spam surge staff without overloading

[olive ember]

We tried to run a heresy mission and our loadout was like 3 bolters and a surge and the waves of gunners were just a pain in the ass

[lethal plover]

infinite purgatus and BB also a thing

don't rely too much on them

[olive ember]

Prob gonna be patched

[olive ember]

Plasma gun kekw

[burnt python]

trauma staff

[lethal plover]

it's not the best without a lasgunner
but your surge staff can suppress greatly with left click. I always spam that first into gunners before charging lightning

suppression becomes a key mechanic in damnation

one trash shooter can zap your toughness instantly

[olive ember]

I’ve found the best suppression weapon was the zealot flamer

Just spray the entire railing with fire and watch em cower

[keen pawn]

I been finding knife + this perk + Random brain bursts a hilariously fun load out.

[sour coral]

emperor gift. wish it had been on my zealot but still gonna use it on my psyker

[lethal plover]

well that is limited by range and not very nimble against randomly appearing gunmen

[loud violet]

I kinda hate the surge staff

The surge staff just

-always- locks you up

[lethal plover]

just one trash shooter hidden in some corner can zap your entire toughness

[frigid pond]

Im a bit confused on what you mean by lock up? The animation canceling is pretty good on it

[olive ember]

It’s not even a hard animation cancel it’s literally switching weapons which you do naturally when getting swarmed

[frigid pond]

You can also sprint and it cancels it

[spare coyote]

anyone know the best way to get going out with a bang penance ? it doesnt one shot and bots and others dont listen

[lethal plover]

canceling does shorten the stun duration. it's a tradeoff for dps

[loud violet]

Not what I mean

[olive ember]

Look in LFG for achievement hunter group rip

[frigid pond]

Its a situational thing, good to have

[loud violet]

The surge staff will always kill you

[robust meteor]

its a bit pricy

[loud violet]

If your cast puts you at 100

you dont get to cook at 100

like with other staves

[burnt python]

probably 70% of my d owns as psyker are due to surge staff

[frigid pond]

Eh, every staff can kill you

[olive ember]

I just don’t use it past 80%

To be safe

[frigid pond]

But i do agree surge is more prone

[olive ember]

I believe the cutoff is 84% though

[solid lake]

Yeah that trait about the surge staff is really bad

[burnt python]

depends on warp resist

[loud violet]

Varies on warp resist yeah

[frigid pond]

Depends on warp res, but yeah, 80% is safe cutoff

Just gotta test it

Find the safe spot

[lethal plover]

welp, assuming you're not talking about the infinite surge bug
let's forget about that
your entire leveling experience as psyker is about peril management
you can't seriously get here without knowing how to BB or quell while dodgesliding

and if you're so busy in melee that you can't quell, the melee weapon auto-quells

[frigid pond]

Not to mention i feel like the 10% quell pops a lot

[crisp yacht]

mark 4 or 5 dueling sword?

[long wharf]

oh. my. god emperor.

this axe, literally, slaps

[lethal plover]

another psyker tank

for the emperor

[burnt python]

the axe ruined dueling sword for me and im kind of bitter about it lol

dueling sword is so fun

[long wharf]

I didn't realize the damage difference was so large

[frigid pond]

Axe is stupid good yeah

[olive ember]

I mean every psyker can tank as long as they run peril blocking

[burnt python]

axe lmb = dueling sword heavy

[olive ember]

Though the force sword and axe do it the best

[frigid pond]

Im still a force sword enjoyer since i havent seen a good axe and deflector is nice but man, axe is good

[olive ember]

It’s depressing but with deflector you basically become invulnerable when reviving

And since you are blocking you don’t get interrupted so you basically get ogryns passive

[frigid pond]

I get irrationally mad when others try to rez when im playing my psy lol

[burnt python]

i never woulda guessed ogryn is who psyker competed w/ the most for team role, but here we are

[crisp yacht]

if you hold block while ressing you dont get interupted?

[loud violet]

If you run purge staff then peril resistance is all but pointless

[frigid pond]

Like ill watch them try and fail/also go down and im like “???”

[burnt python]

CC, horde control, tanking, reviving lol

[olive ember]

Unless you are using the bug peril resist on purge helps more than the damage

[lethal plover]

"Leave the frontline to me." -- local axe psycho

[olive ember]

When psyker goes from squishiest class to tank

[frigid pond]

Me with my baby hp pool running into the frontline

[olive ember]

You would think zealots are the beserkers

[long wharf]

zealots should be nearly unstaggerable

[frigid pond]

Its always kinda funny that in my squad its always me and zealot as the last ones standing if shit goes south

[loud violet]

The peril bug is amazing.

I assume ideally you should explode while using the purge staff at 100 for an extended period

but RN

you can ignore resistance

[frigid pond]

Didnt that get fixed

[loud violet]

get the 15% damage bonus

Nope

[frigid pond]

Or am I thinking of a different bug

[loud violet]

Possibly

But I reject your vile

[frigid pond]

Infinite fire bug?

[olive ember]

I play backline psyker so I’m naturally taking less damage but even if I do get swarmed I pull out melee and hold RMB and suddenly I’m tanking

[loud violet]

axe & surge meta

because it is boring

IT BORES ME SIBLINGS

[frigid pond]

I mean i play purge force sword lol

[olive ember]

I play surge force sword too

[frigid pond]

I just wont dent axe surge is good

[olive ember]

Cuz deflector is worth more to me than horde clear of axe

[frigid pond]

Both have uses depending

[lethal plover]

ok, this is an important lesson
just because you can tank
doesn't mean you should
stopping that dog and that mutant is more important for the team

[olive ember]

Also I’m used to the force sword combo so I find I clear hordes just fine with FS

[loud violet]

I have

[lethal plover]

you only tank when you need to clutch or no one else is nearby

[loud violet]

just the staff

[frigid pond]

Force sword feels pretty good to use

[loud violet]

for my stupidity

[near wyvern]

I play purge duelling. Love the mobility.

[olive ember]

Oh yeah I def am a surge staff cc slave but it’s just funny

[frigid pond]

I did that before i got a deflector

Suuuper fun

[olive ember]

Deflector is just “oh a lone shooter” walks up slowly

[frigid pond]

LOL YEAH

[ebon jolt]

Granted I’ve been playing it on malice but I’ve been playing Force Sword + MG XII Lasgun the past couple days for something different.

[frigid pond]

THATS SO FUN

[near wyvern]

I tried it but I just couldn't figure out why would you stand there and take the hits when you can take cover and do something about it

[olive ember]

Mg 12 is def a lot better on vet I think cuz of the bonuses to weak point damage

Well… it’s meta on vet so yeah

[frigid pond]

Its good for random shots when you dunno where they are yet and also for rezzing

[sturdy cypress]

deflector gets you out of a pinch if for whatever reason you dont have cover or time to surge them, also gives you the option to surge then animation cancel and charge foward into ranged mobs using deflector if needed

[frigid pond]

And yeah

Its also just satisfying

[lethal plover]

I prefer "CC god"

[olive ember]

You can walk up to them and force em into melee, which helps everyone else instead of getting turtles as you normally do

[sturdy cypress]

you can still be a CC god with force deflector as your backup

[near wyvern]

I mean it seems to be a pretty good roll but... It just seems like the duelling does better DPS and safer if you just LOS when needed

[ebon jolt]

I like the recon lasgun for burn and high brain burst chance but find I run into more ammo challenges.

[olive ember]

Cc god until you realize your team is blind and suddenly you are stuck juggling 2 dogs, a mutant and a burster

[frigid pond]

I dunno force sword special isn’t anything to knock

Its good dps as well

[long wharf]

it's great for boss nuking

[olive ember]

That’s a god roll

[loud violet]

Behold

[olive ember]

and I want that sword if you don’t want it

[frigid pond]

Like thats an insanely good force sword

[sleek herald]

I am an elite now

[loud violet]

My flame-sperg tree

[lethal plover]

only when shield is down right?

[long wharf]

nope, especially for knocking the shield down

[near wyvern]

Yeah I mean you can't ask for better blessings

[olive ember]

What is that lvl 10 trait (I know what it is but why lmao)

[lethal plover]

how much of shield are we talking about?

I tried that on heresy boss and didn't feel too much

[olive ember]

The stat spread is pretty good too

[near wyvern]

It's just that the auto quell on FS is a bit slow. I was thinking what if you take +stamina for the curios and just swap kinetic deflector for mind in motion

[olive ember]

You spamming special lights or special heavies?

Special lights on shield, special heavies on boss

[sturdy cypress]

These 2 plus my block cost curio im dealing with anything in the game atm on all difficulties. Animation cancels are very good atm

[loud violet]

oh you're right

lmao

[frigid pond]

Mind in motion needs a reason to be picked, it feels kinda bad rn

[loud violet]

It is bad

It's like getting sprint on a staff

[lethal plover]

oh this was just nonsense
sometimes it's just random whether I stop a mutant or not

[loud violet]

Also I just discovered the hard way

the 'infinite purge' bug

isnt good if you get interrupted

then you immediately blow up

lmao

[lethal plover]

karma I suppose

[frigid pond]

Infinite purge got removed, but also probably yeah

[bronze sierra]

TBF jaf

[night marten]

my purge build feats

[bronze sierra]

I do love me purge run and gun

[raw breach]

Has it been confirmed if loot works like it does in VT2 and is based on the highest gear you've gotten for that slot or something? Because I feel like gear didn't improve much as I leveled up, but more often right after i had purchased or crafted other upgrades

[lethal plover]

we all plateu at 380 base rating max right now

[frigid pond]

Neat, thats what i run

[lethal plover]

it doesn't matter too much how it works but we're here

[frigid pond]

Still debating if i like level 5 1 though

3 felt better when i was running it

[olive ember]

Surge staff build

[bronze sierra]

Its pretty good, if a bit charge hungry

[night marten]

yea, I think it's playstyle/situationlly dependent

[raw breach]

Yeah, i'm aware, but for my other fresh 30's do they have access to potential 380 or do i need to make sure to get some 360's along the way?

[night marten]

but there's no better build than 6-stack/AB purge for getting charges

[near wyvern]

I take kinetic flayer instead of warp battery for getting more consistent warp stacks for ascendent blaze and essence harvest

[burnt python]

void & surge:

psykinetics aura insanely underrated

[bronze sierra]

I was talkin to sirius @night marten

[burnt python]

warp charges bad

[frigid pond]

The fact that purge counts as soulblaze is so nice

[night marten]

I think that's a solid choice for additional defense, 6-charge is nice for peril management an AB wrath clear

[lethal plover]

I did have the same fear, but eventually you have enough money to keep buying the best weapon in the store.

also the weapon that you want

[olive ember]

Nah you want the 4% warp charges for the peril resist

[lost pike]

This is the same build I use as well

[olive ember]

Also most of the other class abilities already have some form of refund or are just insanely low CD (vet)

[bronze sierra]

I agree charges arent great, i use them SPECIFICALLY so i can bump my void damage

[burnt python]

i tend to bb enough to keep them up w/o much issue

[mortal elbow]

ill pick em up dw

[burnt python]

psykinetics aura is so so so so good

[bronze sierra]

I still think that psyker should have disciplines instead of a talent tree

[frigid pond]

Another day another axe with no pen :(

[near wyvern]

I just find the 6 stacks without kinetic flayer to take so long to generate that by the time you get there it's too late

[frigid pond]

Why god emperor

[frigid pond]

With purge staff?

[lethal plover]

surge here

[frigid pond]

Or are we talking a different weapon

[night marten]

sometimes, though with purge and AB it's not too difficult

[frigid pond]

Purge makes it easy

[near wyvern]

Yeah

[frigid pond]

Im usually always sitting at 6 stacks with purge without the 4%

[ornate hamlet]

How?

[frigid pond]

Things dying to the burn?

[bronze sierra]

Now hear me out, use mass effects skill system, or diablo 2s, to make the talent trees

[ornate hamlet]

Oh

AB

got it

[frigid pond]

yeah

[ornate hamlet]

Didn't read the secondary text carefully enough

[near wyvern]

But soulblaze damage is so shit it's a low chance to kill anything with it

[ornate hamlet]

But isn't that the DOT as some allege?

[frigid pond]

it stacks with purge, so its not too bad

[night marten]

you'd be surprised, once you get enough stacks on something

[frigid pond]

you just get 6 on trash pretty quickly

[pearl drift]

People keep saying this and yet keeping 6 stacks feels so easy

[frigid pond]

esp since with purge ur job is wave clear

[pearl drift]

Maybe not on t5s? But I mostly play 4 and it's not too hard

[frigid pond]

ive heard some people running it on 5 and its been okay? surge is probably still the better option but

[lethal plover]

when do you need the charges?
When the game is throwing everything at you from horde to specials. But that's also when it's easiest to get charges

[frigid pond]

i have more fun with purge build

[raw breach]

Right, but even if I have enough money on my main that I play all the time, i'm trying to learn the exact mechanics of the system for my other characters rather than waste money I don't have yet

[olive ember]

Your flamestaff counts as soulblaze

So you run AB for the 10% chance not the fire application

[frigid pond]

pretty much

[night marten]

(though the fire application is pretty decent at 6 charges)

[pearl drift]

Both honestly

You can blow up a whole room.

It has range the staff doesn't, so you can push f and kill all the ranged units in a room

Which is super valuable

[olive ember]

It’s jank cuz the fire staff attacks count as soul blaze but not the same soulblaze because it doesn’t stack with perk soulblaze

Atleast that’s what I heard

[night marten]

this is the real tech. F becomes a gap closer on anything ranged

[night marten]

only the dot it applies counts for the 10% chance to generate a charge from AB, not the staff's direct damage (from my testing anyway)

[stark snow]

tbh, I like the flame on ult because of visual clarity too, highlights all the enemies in the room for my team on top of the knockdown

[tacit fractal]

Cool

[frigid pond]

egghhh

[pearl drift]

I run flame on ult cuz no other class has an option that clears ranged trash as quickly and as certainly

So it makes me feel useful

[frigid pond]

is this....

realllllllly worth the credits

it is better then what i have but

its so meh

[lethal plover]

you may get a better one

may

[frigid pond]

yeaah thats the thing i hate the most

[night marten]

I don't think so, only because you already have one that's useable. not two weeks worth of weekly currency

[frigid pond]

yeah

[night marten]

if you didn't have one, 100%

[olive ember]

I mean do you have antthing else to spend the credits on

[night marten]

but not with sub 350 base stats

[true lake]

yeah dont waste the weekly currency on that

[frigid pond]

these are the weekly credits

so i dont think i wanna waste here

[true lake]

you can find something better stats wise that is probably a lower rarity

[frigid pond]

incase something better shows up

[true lake]

then just spend some time to build it up

[fading jewel]

decent?

[night marten]

just needs deflector

[tacit fractal]

FOMO's a bitch ain't it

[frigid pond]

it is

[night marten]

not really 😦

[unkempt juniper]

whats fomo?

[frigid pond]

fear of missing out

[brave drift]

Ooh

[unkempt juniper]

ah

[brave drift]

Sadly it's on Melk.

[tacit fractal]

Heyyy that's the same as mine! Shit!

[tacit fractal]

Ew

[loud violet]

I can't wait to see

[true lake]

in all honesty i say just hold off on buying anything from the milk dude until you build up quite a lot of that currency, most of the weapons he offers are crap and you cant even upgrade a bunch of them yourself

[loud violet]

what I get on melk

[tacit fractal]

Everything about Darktide is FOMO

[night marten]

yea from what I've seen so far melk's shop is a giant scam 90% of the time

[loud violet]

Dude

I'm getting the most

cracked up teams tonight

Everyone is going around solo

I'm trying to keep everyone alive

[tacit fractal]

Cracked would be insanely good

[loud violet]

while running my clown build

[tacit fractal]

High would be bad

[bright pike]

Neither of these are MKV -.- at least they're Atrox tho

[prisma minnow]

alright I use to be a fan of the FS but I'm now fully in support of the axe. surge staff animation cancel into the axe and then lop off heads while they're stunned is so nice.

[solid lake]

Does the axe have good waveclear?

[true lake]

pretty sure all the axes are more single target armor pierce than waveclears

[brave drift]

No.

[lavish cipher]

So the trend is mkv axe and surge staff?

[burnt python]

the mk v axe is psykers best waveclearing melee lol

[prisma minnow]

its preference

[bright pike]

Oh wait, it was antrax Mk V

[prisma minnow]

theres absolutely nothing wrong with FS or VOID

[loud violet]

Blaze force sword and surge life

:3

[true lake]

im a purgatus user, the pretty much constant max warp charges paired with my force sword special just makes melee against specials easy

[solid lake]

I'm looking at this thoughtfully

[burnt python]

buy that rn

[burnt python]

super good

run peril blocking, spam push attack, win game

run out of stamina? you can block for a year to get some more

[olive ember]

#psyker-class message

Got this staff from Melk and still use it

The one time I’m lucky

[true lake]

probably the only thing i have seen him sell that is worthwhile

[frigid pond]

why can i get an axe with over 50% pen :(

[olive ember]

Sprint efficiency though is E

[west current]

This looks nasty

[true lake]

ive tried chainsword, not the biggest fan of it

but that one should be fairly good if you like chainswords

[west current]

I haven't tried it at all yet, but stats look great

[bleak sonnet]

gun axe psykers rise up

[olive ember]

Filthy gun psyker

[long wharf]

they're fun, but not great

[frigid pond]

i would use a gun if there was a unique one for psy with like, mind bullets

but there isnt so

[burnt python]

i will try gun if i ever get a nice infernus auto las

i dont see the point in any of the others

[olive ember]

The antax is great but using a gun is forbidden

Smh

[vivid merlin]

what gun do you use with gun axe

[bleak sonnet]

racist

[true lake]

gun psyker is only ok in earlier difficulties imo, when you get to a certain point it just makes far more sense to go for a staff

[night marten]

I just don't want to be a shittier vet

[frigid pond]

because like, vet exists

[vivid merlin]

I have so many 370 guns that I just buy when I see them

[olive ember]

Tell that to the guy running gun psyker on heresy and damnation

[long wharf]

if you aren't using a staff as a psyker, you might as well play a different class

[true lake]

even the most basic staff is more helpful in a pinch than the guns i had to use for early game psyker

[olive ember]

visual disgust

[bleak sonnet]

i dont run gun psy on heresy

only damnation

[long wharf]

psyker has unique CC abilities, all based on staves

[bleak sonnet]

staffs do better up until heresy

imo

[loud violet]

All garbage

😔

[bright pike]

god reddit is awful, I don't wNt your spyware app and I don"t want an account

[long wharf]

staves do better, period

[west gust]

class finally made sense when i realized it was designed around staves lol

[bright pike]

You can't close this popup at all

[true lake]

i just havent ran into a gun that psyker can use that felt like it was helping much with anything

[bright pike]

I'm sure old.reddit fixes it but smh

[loud violet]

Download the Brave browser & use desktop mode

[long wharf]

old.reddit.com is the answer

[bleak sonnet]

i use mkiv las or mkxii las
