Yeah
Yes, but sometimes you need to get materials/melkcoin on your psyker, but you don't want to play heresy in your 4man because it's boring
Does Psykinetic's Aura also effect the user?
bruh.wav
why not autoguns
give me that
yes that archtype does the most damage per shot
You can search for the reasoning. I don't repeat the whole thing here.
Basically peril block and BB opening up bulwarks and ignoring suppression
The MKXII literally does everything the helbore is supposed to do, but better in every way. XD
you never run out of ammo either
yeah, lasgun vet has problems with bulwarks and crushers
even if it can 1shot and 2 shot everything
making hard choices
and the counterfire ult is not important for hitting headshot breakpoints, I guess
so if you think you're a headshot pro, just get every headshot in a rifle squad and you have a more relevant CC ult
All the damage, but without the charge time.
Better ammo economy, bigger clip size, and oh yeah, a fuggin SCOPE >.>
just dont get overheaded
Friendly reminder that semi-auto guns trigger Opening Salvo on every single shot. So that 13% extra power is technically permanent uptime.
no camo tho
what.
as the main perk? thats what i want but im not rolling any worth anything alwasy like 15%
no I meant of the two you posted
It's beautiful, it's mine and I'm perk rerolling the sprint efficiency when that launches today
WHAT!?!?!?!?!
I swore there was a short delay
the emperor gave me this gun
I guess not
there eis balli
is the delay shorter than the Mg12's rate of fire? :V
gotcha. im not a fan of the block efficiency perk
nice
🤤
man I remember when I recced mg12 psyker in here like a week and a half ago
I have a new goal for my MK12 baby
I got legit flamed and blocked like three people
now i have people telling me "gun psyker scales to damnation, actually"
funny how the tide turns
hey
lol
as long as it works
I don't need other people to validate what I use as a competitive option, because I know deep down in my soul I'm an operative capable of Exteriminatus. I can make a toothpick deadly if I wanted to.
now it's time for me to evangelize wound curios
bruh
1 wound or 0 wound is my go to
And I have. That's effectively what the DS is 😂
nice roll bro
operative capable of Exterminatus
I can see smell the edge all the way from here
oh really
Yup
yeah
damn i should have known
it's a minor thing
Just won't be able to use it until then
i dont have enough cash though
Good. My psyker wears all grey and the shop grey.
Does Psykinetic's Aura and the base Coherency Aura also effect the user?
To keep us coming back
holy emperor you have no idea how much I wish this staff's charge rate and warp resistance were flipped
Impossible. You cracked the code
sharkloan tactic
and I already overcap perils on the small->big->big combo to 100 anyway
i have a quick question regarding leveling
nobody is forcing you to spend your in-game currency
Fat sharkloan
how should you queue to level
I have a pretty good roll on a trauma tucked away, waiting for them to buff that staff to not be hot garbage.
like difficulty scale etc
q 2 and 3 till you 30
10 for malice, 25 for heresy
two schools of thought
- geta group to carry you through the hardest difficulty they can, which will be malice as soon as its avilable and heresy soon after
oh
- get a KNOIFE/dueling sword and slidetech your way through sedition missions at lightning speed
i dont have that
You can reliably clear some of the missions in 10-12 minutes
i dont have any of that lol
1- Lvl 1-4
2- Lvl 2-7
3- Lvl 8-20
4- Lvl 20-30
5- Lvl 27-30
With randos
Word. I buy all the things I like that a simple stat buff could solve.
If you're random queuing
thanks
you ever do 3 or 4
"KNOIFE" 🤣🤣🤣
But just know
no.
You won't always win
Speedrunning missions with no challenge has the well known side effect of making you hate the game and quitting it
when will they fix dog netcode
Once they fix dog netcode I will be unstoppable
until then I will just randomly die to dogs
I mean, it worked for me, I aim for consistent winning
ultimately just play the game and have fun
if you actually like the game, you'll stick with it and you'll be 30x4 before you know it
anyone wanna carry me lol
that being said I slide-teched my way through 25 missions to get melkcoin to buy a godroll
attention fellow psykers, make sure to channel the idea of psyker buffs into the warp today. So that we may get them in the real world
what country are u
What're you doing ices
in a single evening
im bored
ill play with ya depending on country or whatever
I'm currently playing Psylot rn so that works 🥲
As is tradition with OCE
i cry
cause its true
also shop refresh soon surelyyyy we I will get a god roll
right???!!

lol
i will game with u if you want
youll carry my level 2 zealot in heretic ?
yus
now ?

Fun and clout
okay
we will get their when we get there
something is fuckywucky with the targeting range
@grave bobcat whats ur steam code
@severe folio ill send u my code
77118793
I'm dealing 416 to crushers and only 280 to infested with the pieplate now
gimme a second to remeber how to find it
of trauma
250620981
sent
416 fully charged?
As in I can't oneshot poxwalkers with a full trauma charge
which doesn't match up to what I do in a real game
i'm confused
yes
the trauma staff is bugged right now isnt it ?
416 to reapers and bulwarks too
deals only half damage of what it written
that is pathetically garbage
did u get it ice
i was just trying to get damage numbers
but for some reason in this instance of the firing range
I stopped being able to onehit poxwalkers
yeah i got it
when I know I can do it ingame
i accepted it
and i'm doing MORE damage to certain targets than the listed damage (376)
i joined your strike team
epic
u can chose the missions @severe folio
How to transfer blessings to Voidstrike staff? 🤔
but unyielding/carapace is taking more
and poxwalkers are taking less, and notably aren't being oneshotted
afk eating rn tbh lol just adding to play in the future
Ah fair
yeah
wait heratic? do you mean herasy
yea heretic is a midship remake
in 2022 time worth more than money
wait, the limbsplitter talent on my axe is broke ntoo
why is the range so fucking scuffed
Get a new axe duh
are there sniper rifles for vet?
Sure
limbsplitter is not falling off LMAO
Or I would

oof
Maybe ask in #veteran-class ? lel
yeah i join the 28
kinetic barrage and hi intensity malice
isnt it heresy and higher?
yep, has to be heresy
yes that
just do heresy hi intensity, stand on top of boxes a lot (good habit, anyway)
when you hear a special strike coming try to get 1-2 elites at the same time
from the next pull
if you have to overpull for it... toxic penace, lmao
Watch pick and mix and millions of other Warhammer 40,000: Darktide videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.
do specials count?
yes, you have to kill 5 unique taggables basically
omg that makes things SO much easier
first heresy run
i thought it was only elites
elites = specials
in this clip I go bulwark, burster, flmaer (damaged by my team), reaper, bomber
What do we think off this Orange staff? Is the crit blessing any good or do you want an other one? ANd for the "Weak spot" perk does the lightning deal weakspot damage?
suppress is useless trait on surge
bad quell speed, I personally would not use melkcoin on it
quell speed is a really important stat
even if it's just quelling 100% from 3x BB to get 50% of your toughness back
This game is written by Swedish devs in English for a reason. Terminology must be vague and interchangeable on a whim.
your current staff is close enough to the melkcoin one that I would not buy the melkcoin one
but terrifying barrage is such a wasted blessing on a surge staff
the stats are not significantly better, the perks are just as worthless. You're basicaly just adding warp nexus which... is noticeable, but not worth your week's melkcoin
Warp Nexus is mandatory for damage output, Terrifying Barrage isn't bad
Oki doki :)) I have a few other surge staffs that are better if terrifying barrage sucks on surge staff
if the gold staff had two good +20 perks, i would buy it in a heratbeat
but it has two bad perks
so, no
+flak is the single most important roll
damage to unarmoured is always good
absolutely not on surge
Warp Nexus + Warp Flurry/Focused Channeling/Terrifying Barrage
you are not supposed to be using surge staff on unarmored/infested enemies for dps
every time I see a pub psyker spamming surge into poxwalkers I want to die
your sword deals way more damage
Hahahahha, so true
its more about cc than damage
Your sword and pushes are better CC
against pure poxwalkers
sure if you see some elites coming through the trash, pleas surge them
but you do not need to stand back and dsurge pure poxwalkers
get in there
hmm I found on damnation that it helps to constantly disable everything
What do with think about the "Blazing spirits" Blessing?
You stagger the front line and control the entire horde, if i'm using my SUrge instead of my axe for a horde, there's a reason for it
It is not for surge as far as i know, but for other staffs
if your teammates are having trouble with pure poxwalker control and are taking damage from them on damnation, you need new damnation teammates
pure poxwalkers are "please kill these as fast as possible so we can continue with the mission"
So if terrifying barrage is worth using, does this mean this staff is worth using until rolling something better?
terrifying barrage is fine on void
it's just really, really meh on surge
because surge has a tendency to already stun nearby enemies anyway
if you are surge-spamming a scab squad they are all doing the wiggle dance already
Transfer peril is pretty dope tho!
Yeah, I just consider Transfer Peril to be mandatory on Void, but I was kinda 'eh' on that until I heard other takes.
you don't NEED a suppress-on-kill blessing on top of that
There are some weird niches where you might actually proc the suppress on surge and have it be worth something, but it's not to the point where I'd say you would deliberately add it
What are the best perks and blessings on surge?
+flak and then +maniacs
Blessings, warp nexus and then it's mostly w/e
It's not completely useless. It's stop mobs from blindsiding me and lets me swap between my axe and staff in near melee range without taking hits
No fun allowed! Stop that!
yeah, but you have to score a kill
too much particle effect HAHA
the GPU killer
so you're casting surge staff and getting a kill (so probably on a scab) and then... you complain you get hit while swapping to your axe? you can block instantly, what's the problem
the situation i can see is that you are casting at a rager or something and you kill a melee scab instead, and it happens to suppress a rifle scab that is very close by too who dodged the ligthning chain
So I think what I want out of Voidstrike is uninterruptable secondary and transfer quell, but I'll deffo give terrifying barrage a shot
warp nexus/warp flurry is good if u do animation cancel
that's undeniably value, anything that keeps you from getting shot is valuable, but it'll not be so common that I'd say to spend melkcoin on a staff just to get terrifying barrage
How big is you guys inventory with weapons that suck,n
but they have good blessings and you are waiting fro crafting system^^
Every weapon i've ever gotten that isn't a <350 white item
I have infinite dockets at this point
so my invnetory is very big since I just buy anything hat looks even remotely interesting
like I have a white 380 mk5 ripper gun on my Ogryn just because I saw it in the shop
it takes me about a minute to scroll through my inventory on just melee
I treat my inventory like emergency dockets incase something hot comes out
I recycle everything in invetory except what I use in that moment
I have a vage memory that Fatshark wanted teased Blessings with lvl 5. Do we know anything more about that? Or is it BS.
30-40 of each
Deflector activates when wielding power sword or need to be in the blocking stance with the sword?
blocking
damn
It means is active when you ress
Thatt too
The big advantage of deflector is becoming the best at ressing
Ressing?
“Helping captured and downed rejects”
Oh rescuing/reviving
Can save a run
yeah
does crit chance do anything for purg?
Its only only ressing
it lets it crit more often
But it works with ress rtoo
yeah but the damasge on purg is so low does crit actually matter lol
but purg hits are like 20dmg so who cares, damage comes from burn and that cant crit
Probably going to use this incase slide zoomies ever get nerfed.
Saw a lucky psyker with deflector who rescued me before
Deflector blocks attacks from all sides?
block ranged attacks
Only in the front?
I'm not really sure how the perk works when you're reviving someone but it FEELS like it's all around
Definitely a cone when you aren't though
TFW force sword only half sprint speed of DS. 😭
I'm too addicted to s p e e d
Wait wtf how long has this been sitting in my inv? 👀
Holy shit I think I might like this knife more than DS
idk why but everyone hates on the Dueling Sword and I feel like its almost on par with the power sword of the vet 💀
FR, like the optimal way to deal with armor on psyker is to switch to your melee in the first place? Like hell no, I treat it like CS GO. Switch to the knife to move faster and GTFO 😂
My confusion is why DS
It's just a big dagger
I switch to headpop and just dodge when crushers or sum sht come
That's all DS is
A wizard of a different sort
force sword is great but the peril cooldown doesnt get the speed boost from using smth that ain force/warp/anything
did melk always sell 5 items? or is it random
5 random items each day
i swear he only sold 4 previously
So I tried it. Dagger has slower zoomy power slides but significantly better horde cleave
yeah I was thinking that as well.
Versus, what, DS?
yeeee
Are you serious, because I 100% feel better with my DS lights than knife lights
Duelling sword just isn't good
Knife lights are janky and too fast and there's a weird stab in the middle
One of the DS archetypes has double-downward diagonal lights in a loop
And I just whack heads with it
Depends on the mk. For the V? Yes, the four with cleave stat instead of defence? Haven't tested
Knife feels... weird, there's a weird underhand that's fucked up
for some reason, a duelling sword I have does 1k damage per special attack on a Mutant
but does 100-200 to everything else.
specials take massive bonus melee damage
It's to make meleeing them a high-risk high reward playstyle versus merely shooting them
that's why when a dog or mutant has your teammate pinned and you're like 3-5 meters out, the correct play is to slide in and melee it
rather than just standing at a distance and furiously shooting it
yeah I agree
every time a dog/mutant happens and I see the veteran take all this sweet time pulling out his bolter before shooting it 3 seconds later, he could have just gone in with his power sword that he already had out
mutie would literally be dead by the ime he finishes pulling out his bolter
and I get that much but the special interaction on Duelling sword, was only doing 1k damage to the mutant and not the other specials.
This is a good thing, because if people ever found out what happens when you use power sword optimally then it'd ge tnerfed much faster
tried to push a dog off teammate turns out u cant
There was increased damage being applied but the number for that was considerably a lot. Fives times more.
It might suggest Dueling Thrust attack might have armour piercing properties but its not consistent with applying it.
I have decided to simply grab any weapon I see with a base of 350 or greater, or greater than the one of said weapon I already have
Right now, other than aesthetic reasons, it doesn't seem worth choosing it over Force Sword or the Axes right now
which is unfortunate.
Chain sword feels good too
Oh hey, a MK IV that I can test
If that cleave stat doesn't nerf the slides then this is probably going to be my wep of choice
I really don't get some people's hardons for anti armor being in their melee slot. I just feel like there's better things you could be doing with your time spent trying to Zealot a crusher and bulwark, like melting horde or staggering them with BB instead
I'd much rather the playstyle of mobility, which I feel some people do not appreciate just how MUCH going fast can prevent damage
It is absolutely nuts that I can go the speed of a zealot charge at all times
If you want speed and survivablity the dagger build with the Zealot is better suited for that.
Speed isn't really my style 🤷♀️
It's a viable playstyle and it's weird that DS is seen as an inferior option rather than the sidegrade it is. You lose deflector but can get in and out of situations far more quickly.
it's not that
That's the whole point of the weapon.
its chip damage for horde clearing in heresy and above
it doesn't deal with Specials and Elites well either
yes you move fast
which weapons are fastest in terms of running?
but the way the game is designed you're not supposed to Kite mobs forever like you can in VT2 or other Zombie Horde games
you can try but the system is designed to work and punish against that
Base ms running both DS and dagger give the same bonus speed
so you'll be climbing up hill, which you can get really good at, but why?
So whichever mobility ios higher
The slide tech is faster on DS than on Dagger. I think the lunge bonus is slightly higher.
but that being said if you do want that - Zealot is better for that on all classes.
And I tested with an 80 mob dagger and rapier
I shwoed you yesterday
Its the same speed with heavy
yes but thats the dagger making it feel good not the class.
theres nothing to learn just slide when you swing
nothing im saying is the play style is bad
Playstyle is king
doing it on a Psyker just doesn't seem optimal
Light swing hapepens very quickly, now chain 15 of them together.
Ds is speedy and stylish both but it's actual contribution to putting the enemy down isn't as good.
Fs gets deflector and is only a little better at horde clearing but also really good at bursting down priority targets
Cs has decent horde clear and priority targets
Axe is apparently the horde tanking king but axes stinky so idc
And while I've never used DS I agree with Dretch's points htough when I've seen it in atction
'Really good at bursting priority targets'. Three FS charges vs my two DS heavies on muties begs to differ
ehhhh again playstyle thing
Mind that's damnation.
You can two shot headshot a mutie's weakpoint with a high DMG rapier
And it flies out faster than that charge
k mutie weakpoint
that's because DS is doing 1k damage to muties
that muties
what about the 10+ other specials.
which are more common than muties.
Dunno about the DS, but Dagger melts all but the Crusher
If you're flicking out a melee weapon on your psyker, it's not because it's your first option to engage the enemy but because you're getting pressure from them.
You aren't a zealot
Nah it's because there's a rager right there and fs special killing them is faster than blasting my purge at em for a bit
I've been trying to Damnation high int but while I dont' struggle team just eventualyl gets overwhelmed 😦
You will always be getting more value with your team with staff casts than you are your melee weapon except in situations where pressure is being put on your team.
In a vacuum, you're right. FS is better. If the other options on psyker didn't exist
Honestly wouldn't want FS if I'm under pressure
I think it varies? The trapper seems to take significantly reduced melee damage
So the idea that you're just. Hunting down specials to kill them with melee is ludicrous and not a real world scenario, sorry
I'd want an Axe or Chainsword
It's really good horde clear with the Slaughterer blessing
ESP not in damnation
otherwise, not so much
When did I say I was hunting anything down
Axe is more consistent and deals with Flak enemies better than most weapons
Feels like you came here looking to argue
Dagger is good when you have bleed on it
Psykers are a bit too squishy for melee focusing... kit is not designed for it.
It's designed to juggle warp charges and use a force weapon
there isn't a point to be made either jsut flat no as someone who uses it alot ll
Also no
If you're taking damage from melee enemies
with peril block we aren't that squishy
also onyou.
Holy shit, the MK IV moves just as fast. No defence stat required. 👀
I'm currently playing Melee only Psyker and Kyrnish saw me play a whole game with 0 hp lost.
yes Dagger and DS have highest mobility for melee
check out the stationary dodge distance
If you get damaged by melee its on you
Yeah I know the DEF stat boosts that but I mean just the raw slide tech. I thought it would slow it down, but it doesnt
Mind I'm comparing the MK IV and V
Nooooo it's totally the ogryns fault for not babysitting me!
Dretch whats your single target dps like on DS vs ragers
I don't have a good DS to make a valid test 🥲
I can tell you heavy attacks its under 300
As ingle hit
Nice
What if he hits 10 times per second?
Like, dps is the important stat... Not a single hit of damage.
I am reasonably certain that no weapon swings 10 times per second
524-546 ish, not counting kin flayer procs obviously. So about a fair 3-4 charged heavy weakpoints. All on damnation. Gunna test my FS too
Spam charging my fs strike charge on ragers? 354
That your fastest damage?
How likely is it that they're going to make brain burst scale with your equipment
I'm using the best controls that I have but not everything is one to one, but yes. I'd say the minutia in dmg stats/blessings makes them comparable options
I see it being suggested around but I'm pretty sure they just want to make it scale off of wrap charges
Not very. Fatshark’s stance on psyker seems to be that it’s fine
would be nice
Yeap kinda sucks though, I feel so useless against elites on heresy+
The game is primarily designed with malice in mind. The majority of the dev team weren't even able to clear Damnation so my hopes aren't very high to see stat tuning for it.
Yeah I rarely use BB
Ah DS is just well rounded
Jack of all but master of none.
tbh it really is just like a long ass dagger
less damageb ut you can at least hit multiple
however you don't wanna be using it on a Carapace enemy
like ever.
unless you're hoping for a BB proc
well ideally don't wanna be using it on Ogryns
With maulers I just don't aim at their head, but like dagger I guess Crusher is just annoying
Nah I can see it being fine on others
Especially if my DS has some kind ofcrit mod
Well this is where Dagger bypasses cause you can keep up lacerate stacks
We're not Zealot
Isn’t crusher massively resistant to DoTs?
No, you get crit mods for it
I dont' want some pathetic 7 DoT
We're talking the Weapon.
When I could have the actual hit be higher
and its options + properties
Yeah I'm glad I tested the MK IV I had. I think I'm happier with it.
Ideally looking at melee options for Psyker is secondary importance.
its just something to keep the pressure off
Block efficiency on a rapier though is premium meme. Might even be able to infini block two demon hosts, not just one
1 sec I will put 20 stacks of bleed on the crusher
and there are options that people can use
Against crushers, if you have a dagger and purgatus you just have to brain burst them
ultimately for Zealots and daggers you want lacerate and haymaker
Why rapier specifically?
so lacerate procs the insta kill
It's passive peril venting is higher. Not all melee weapons have the same value for it.
other than that lacerate daggers isn't a high kill intensive build anyway
its just weakening stuff for your team mates to kill
soft tanking I suppose
why does the mkiv ds heavy 2 do more damage than heavy 1
anyway 1 sec
Huh, I thought all non-Force weapons passive vented the same
the only good thing I can see about bleed is that you can basically just stab a bulwarks shield and the ticks actually do pretty good damage not like soulfire
Nope
you would think the STAB would do more
why is the Vanguard attack doing more damage than the Strikedown on the mkiv dueling sword lol
this whole game is a meme
The stab does alright damage on Dagger
Grinder bugged -.
its just in a real scenario its not ideal to heavy stab spam
??????
what happened?
SO first 20 stacks of bleed on crushe
Sure it is, just weave in pushes. I mean what else are you going to do with your stamina. Blocking doesn't take it anymore.
@grave bobcat this is is unfortunately my best dagger, all I want is to zoom
thats weird bleed does more damage to the reaper and bulwark than other mobs
they are dissipating
Before I can renew the stack
this took me waht 15 seconds?
Bleed pog
low dps
sec
yeah bleed sucks actually
put your socks on
hate me now then if yall like daggers
you're just stupid cause heavy kills everything ffaster than waiting for the bleed to proc it -.
nah mate, you're completely dense
I believe the crusher specifically has massive resistance to all damage over time effects. It isn’t an accurate representation of bleed’s effectiveness (or lack thereof)
not including crushers
I'll do it on the bulwark next to him for parity I can agree with tthat
Because it's fucking stupid lol
Yeah I'm not tryign to drive through a wall
What I've pointed towards is the interaction between bleed + haymaker is what makes it okay and alright dps because it procs the instakill.
My odds significantly increase of proccing haymaker if I use bleed guys
but earlier I said
for Psyker - is that I'd go Axe and Chainsaw - FS if I must.
and its a build mostly if not only for Zealot.
I really hope that the Psyker will be reworked a bit, because in this form it is the least fun of all 4 classes
I don't need to. It's in the post here
but you are driving your narrative that ANYONE who thinks remotely good is stupid.
I can't apply 20 stacks
wdym it's the most fun of all 4
before I kill them
You're just being dense and moronic about this than reading and being civil
I think its funny lol
Force Sword is growing on me. Folks said a while back that the push wasn’t really better than any other melee weapons, but weaving in basic shoves into an attack rotation almost makes me feel like I’m on ogryn. Dudes get knocked fully on their ass rather than just stumbling back a lil bit
I am while trying to explain this to you
the push is great
you're explaining to something that I don't disagree with you on
I'll bring the coloured shapes next time for some more familiarity in my descriptions
dagger bleed it sucks,
Cause I found a game
I mean i think this whole conversation started with, dagger is good because you can stack bleed
Move on 😠
ehhh... thoughts?
but I am not really part of it
He’s way too salty for that lol
Comedy withdrawn
Blessings are great, damage and blast are a bit small, but high quell speed and charge rate are good. Overall, I’d say it’s a worthwhile pickup
this whole discord must be purged, dumb trolls everywhere
I normally get on with you Calcium and agree on a lot of your points but w/e man I don't need your salt
👍
I personally do not see the point of barrage on most staffs myself as a blessing it generally baffles me
Not really what I wanted for that 2nd blessing... Would have taken warp nexus, focused channeling, maybe even warp flurry... I had another void staff with TB on it that I didn't upgrade lol
The close range requirement is what makes me go 'wtf why?'. The effect should spread out from where the weakpoint kill happened from
that's funny lmfao
Suppression works on melee enemies, and functionally stuns them. Enemies being a bit spread out and rushing you is voidstrike’s chief weakness, so suppression on close range kills makes you less vulnerable and let’s you spam easier
Oooooo i seeeee
Switch to melee then
But then you can’t spam the horde
peril block and have a nap
I personally feel that with voidstrike I want pure damage perks stacked as high as I could get them but I have still to be lucky enoug to get that
megatroll hahahaha
My sibling of the warp. Can you honestly tell me with a straight face that the time it takes to throw off a voidstrike cast has higher kill potential than melee?
this super rare Surge perk with a crit perk and crit blessing would be really nice to test
There is an opportunity cost to using melee when there's a perfectly good opportunity to throw out a staff use
Exactly
hey man i got hit with it im just paying it forward
that's why melee staff is the best psyker playstyle
Or they could just buff melee weapon lethality across the board and let us choose how we want to handle hordes.
Staff melee has a power that zealots wish they could imitate
I almost clicked the full screen thing
God I miss VT2 melee weapons. Even sienna's shit had more potential than what we have now
did my best
I mean, the arguement was, if a perk that suppresses on close range kill is better to have on a staff in case you start getting swarmed by mobs that your staff will not efficiently kill in one staff use, versus just whipping your melee weapon out and having an actual damage perk on your damage staff instead
I mean, does voidstrike have any significant damage blessings besides just the peril quell?
I've been messing with melee only and the MkIV claw sword feels SO fuckign good
to swipe through head level
peril quell is not a damage blessing
I will petition Fatshark for this until they add it, but they need Sienna's Coruscation Staff that leaves flame patches that apply Soulblaze. If they don't want to change Trauma (Sienna's Combustion Staff) then at least give us another staff like Coruscation
there is crit blessing, charge blessing, double damage on crit blessing
Yes it is. It just isn’t directly so. Infinte peril quell = never ending attacks = never stopping your dps
Yes it is no it isn't?
That was my goto as well. Honest to god the way I'm playing Psyker now isn't terribly different from unchained.
nah we dont need the same staffs as vt2
I don't know what to tell you, if its an indirect damage perk it is not a damage perk debatably increasing your peril more slowly will also reduce your damage if you are using high peril damage feat so just no
Warp Nexus, Warp Flurry, and idk what that 3rd blessing is, but it's not one available on Voidstrike
Then why did we get them?
Its called Surge it is real
Ahh yes, Flail/Corus Unchained? I miss it...
at least surge is something new, more other stuff pls
There could be more we dont even know about if its rare
Voidstrike kills everything it’s intended to in one hit anyways. It’s chief bottleneck is peril and charging. Going peril negative means you remove a bottleneck on your dps, increasing damage. It’s not rocket science
I mean if you really need to be lucky enough to proc a tier 4 perk on consecrating a green to get it or be super lucky in the shop I don't know
Kinda hoping for some rare giga blessing
be me, get a good purg staff, roll crit blessing D:
Something to work for rlly
According to https://darktide.gameslantern.com/build-editor, a resource linked in the Fatshark launcher itself, Voidstrike only has 8 possible blessings
That's one sexy purge staff
Hey, at least you’ll be able to swap it out for something when crafting is finished
You play on sedition then regularly I take it?
Blazing Spirit, Focused Channeling, Run 'N' Gun, Sustained Fire, Terrifying Barrage, Transfer Peril, Warp Flurry, and Warp Nexus
The blessing replacement/refine option should appear in the update later today
just one of them is
oh grats, crit blessing is amazing
Its wrong though
Malice and heresy, actually. Occasionally damnation, but I don’t care for pugging it and nobody joins me in LFGs cause I’m micless, so I usually only run those on low intensity
not on that staff though
You one shot everything on Heresy with your voidstrike staff. I want whatever you are smoking mate...
Granted, it’s been a minute since I’ve used Voidstrike, so I could be misremembering it’s damage potential
then stop arguing about it
It prob procs bleed
Cock
i'd rather use trauma lmao
Ok I couldn't stop myself
They didn't say everything, they said everything it's intended to. Which most people use it for horde clearing as the general idea of it.
i mean im NGL my void staff 1 shots quite a bit even on damnation if im using it on dregs in a horde
I needed that free smile
Exactly
You guys talking about which staff is best
Eh not really
they are all good, no bests
Using staffs 
My "staff" the best
Another day, another staff discrimination topic 
Look at my pole, everyone in front of me has white blueish stuff all over them when i focus on it
Uh ho
but!!!! if you use surge staff you noob guys!!
The staff wars continues

Do you use terrifying barrage on your voidstrike staff?
Purge vs Surge ere we go again
if not, not optimized -> wrong build
Keth you playing?
I don't use Void often and my Void sucks, I was just clarifying what they meant.
Say what you want about Purgatus. Nothing can convince me that the fantasy of cleansing disease with purifying, blinding, holy fire doesn't make the pyro in me very, very happy
Hey so uh, are you more of a PalciumPal or GalciumGal if you know what i mean?
I am after I make coffee and breakfast.
Don't doubt anything you said except the holy part 
You'll find out if you get to know me better
The fantasy doesn't align with the damage output
I wanna do High Int ❤️
I just need 1 other to rely on
Love me the purgatus, void is cool too I can definitely see the value and satisfaction but i just don't vibe with it as much
im gonna go ahead and say it, i enjoy the trauma staff
If you dont go pure BB youre bot real psyker tbh
My biggest issue with the purgatus is when teammates have it and just spurge over or in front of everything I’m trying to see
How do you read this sentence
From left to right
Nah dude best psyker is infantry autogun and devil claw
Damn I thought it was a manga
Gtfo my build
Lol
It’s probably cuz of the uwu in my name, i get that alot
Dad what is an UwU?

Do it, coward
I won't lie, even with my gear not being very good. I'm surprised how good it feels to use lo
Think its time to find a better discord for this game lol
Nobody is holding you here
official discs are never places to stay in too long 😛
You can not leave
honestly, comes down to the hour you're on.
Before I unlocked staves infantry autogun felt the best out of the options lol
a better echo chamber you mean
rmber I not actually using it
I didn't fire a single shot all game lol
Does being better mean that it’s more insulated or just that it’s echoing the right sound
Nice try
Nice try
lol
triggered
I like that

I mean, you’re the one being salty and refusing to accept that a blessing that you think isn’t good might have uses beyond your immediate preconceptions. It sounds to me like an echo chamber is exactly what you’re looking for
Aww mans you salty now too?
Gonna have to start bringing a spray bottle in here
Ppl do be going online looking for a fight
Man people be really going personal now over pointless video game stuff
Get some steak in here or somethig dom't want it to go to waste
You know what they say
nice try
Dont bring spray bottle into discord servers, because that’s impossible
Game is in a weird place and community is eating at each other
I miss that movie
I'll eat you out
Wait why is it in a weird place? what's going on?
I don't think it has anything to do with the community I think it's just psyker chat



Honestly you cant blame anyone whos being mental in psyker chat
Brain gasm
Ehh, just the general launch state (better than VT2’s original one, nowhere near as refined as VT2 is now, people expected the refinements of VT2 to be applied here)
I can blame anyone for anything I want. Whether they're actually at fault is irrelevant
Psyker chat is def the most toxic channel. Everyone thinks they’re gigabrain
Wait your not?
Brain busting all over ourselves
Wtf,,
It all comes full circle, buff Psykers.
idk Vet chat is pretty bad, people are using it for a second general chat
That's the prerequisite for being a Psyker. Did you not get the memo?
theres little to no convo about veterans in the vet chat
Everyone does secretly 
I am the emperor's gift to man, thank you for noticing
Vets spill into here all the time to piss and moan about being a good class which is weird
I wont accept your blame
Sorry I don’t talk to people who don’t use surge staff and atrax axe exclusively
Nice try
Depends on the timezone I don't envy you morning folk
@tight saddle Actually imma get more sleep since I made the mistake of having a nap
So maybe on later
My prediction: not deflector
disappointment
If we weren't gigabrain psykers, we'd be on black ships instead of prison ships
the funny thing is the class is the worst of the 4 lol (dont hate the messenger its true)
Mediocrity
I have my certifications, thank you.
Psh we can do it all
well Psykers are just tortured most of their life before not being branded as a Heretic so....
Man that really is the worst decent force sword I’ve ever seen
Axe has the wrong blessings. You can’t fool me heretic
Non sleep deep rest or ure not a psyker
Or does it?
Those blessings look valid to me
or does it?
You don’t need repeat hit blessing you just block push. Wasted slot
Does block pushx2 not count as a repeated hit?
Force greatsword when
wait, am i an actual idiot and shred doesn't apply to push attacks?
When we FORCE THEM TO RELEASE IT GAGAHHAHA
just more force weapons when pls
It’s consecutive hits I’m almost certain. And if you block push it resets. I don’t have the blessing to confirm 100%
All the weapons use force, change my mind
I’m curious what a force greatsword would do
push attack generally doesn't apply to similar blessings like that. like decimator. it makes limbsplitter pretty good though on the other hand for them
Not with our spindly psyker arms they don’t
Chad mind, noodle body
So much so we literally think we’re the best
Something that can cleave AND get deflector
We are the best.
FS can kinda cleave, if you squint and tilt your head a little
Noodles? If that's the case then mac n cheese is served. Swoocing all up on and around horde, dipping in and out of pinches for free staff casts. 😂
Yeah thats why we smack our heads against the wall when someone dares mentions bleed

Just finished a damnation run, brain burst does way too much damage. My friends who play veteran complained the entire run that they couldn’t even get a shot off before I was clearing entire rooms with brainvurst. Our insane single target damage needs a nerf
I mean ur right we can make the best of every other class
Cmon man, dont kick it up again. You fought for him to stop. lol
See that’s why we don’t need vet in the game at all
And we run knife/purge so zealot is obsolete
Lmao

fair!
Then deflector FS to get rid of the ogren
Dammit, now I have to go back to test Shred again. There's no buff icon either either way so it's hard to verify...
Yeah, the buff icon inconsistency is a bitch, ya kinda just gotta gauge based on the damage number ranges
Bleed is a crutch for inferior classes
New update but yet or is that later today
A 1 in 30,000k chance to get deflector on your sword is actually too good. I want to feel like I’m playing the power ball lottery each time I go to the store
later today hopefully
It’s debatable whether the game update will even be today, though the community update has not released yet
Just make 5 psykers that way you get 5 times the rolls don’t need other classes anyway
Time for bed, cya round everyone
Just get lucky lol
Oh look, it’s how I geared my warlock in destiny lol
If gear and resources were shared I’d consider it
But then you need to level 5 psykers to 30, because there is no shared inventory
Sounds like someone with 5k grumpier
Why would you need any other classes anyway?
Just name each one the class you’re going to outplay, then 1 main
That’s so big brain 5 in 30,000k. I’m gonna be rich
Like my psyker named zealot can outrun anyone with their 90% mobility mk v dueling sword
That just means that you need five deflector force swords
Easiest way to exit coherency and die
No just need 1 for my psyker named ogren
Emperor's Throne... I think i'm an actual idiot and Shred doesn't even apply on push attacks. But Decimator WOULD count because it's just power on hit, Shred specifies "on repeated hit"
Im not sure what a psyker is but man this class named Sith Lord Palpatine is interesting to play as for sure
Sorry you had to find out this way king
See THIS PERSON gets it
unlimitedpowah.mp4
Unrelated: I used to run toughness on warp charge, but I think I have seen the light and switched to toughness on quell. I never realized just how frequently it’s come up, and how useful it is to be able to just duck behind cover for a bit and build some toughness
toughness on warp charge is specifically good for purgatus build and that's really it
Yeah I think I might keep it there
toughness on charge is REALLY good on purgatus
Quietude is peak for everyone except gun psykers (veterans)
Welllll
but it doesn't proc often enough for everyone else
If you get in the midst and have 4% chance + 10% to bb every 15 secs, you can sustain yourself inside a horde if youre more of a in your face player
Goes to show that you don't need optimized gear for 4-5, but the dude earlier who said you can start heresy at level 25 and damnation at 27 or whatever is on some bad corpse starch
without the purgatus-synergy talent of 30-2 I still don't feel it's enough
wrong chat sorry
Also I swear to god every time I type something -es my phone autocorrects it to -ed, and vice versa
on the madness...
Hey my psyker named veteran is running a mk 12 and a chain sword it’s I’m with you
Sometimes when I Psyker I do warp stuff
but people get carried often so not surprised
Its not optimal, but you dont really have choice if you want to melee
I'd rather psike to 100 perils with surge ||or trauma||, or just get constant quelling with voidstrike headshots
I just use the light infantry autogun
cause it has a lotta burst DPS against things that I can't kill with brainburst...
Nah, I play straight-to-100-perils trauma staff, then swap to either mk1 claw or antax
then you get 50% toughness over the next 10 seconds.
Wait
The way I see it, if you can make a build work it works
Do you get toughness when the peril lowers on its own?
All my peril on weak spot void staffs suck. I want a good one with it
yes
Ascending Blaze still doesn't give enough Warp Charges because the dot having to be the final tick of damage in multiplayer is super low. I tried a purg run with all the synergy talents and was shocked that i had no warp charges for parts of the run
all sources of quelling count
there isn't a scoreboard in the game so if you're getting to the end of the missions its win win
an ult that quells will restore 25% toughness
I use purge to build my peril. 1 full charge takes me to 50%
it is easily the best toughness talent in the game
Word. Also pro tip. passive peril venting on melee is more quick if you do a mini vent to start it on staff then switching.
I think things will change if some kind of damage tracking lands in the game
dot ticks final bit of damage for me often enough that I'll take it on purgatus build over fast BBs
It stops that stupid delay of starting the vent
In my experience, I’m at like 1-2 stacks in normal gameplay, then immediately 6 stacks when a horde happens
Quietude turning your peril gen directly into toughness gen is clutch for anyone who plays a staff-centric playstyle.
I don't think so? it's always a 2 second delay
works for any playstyle tbh
After your last warp action (notably perilsblocking doesn't count) there's a 2 second delay then passive quelling begins
Don't you need to Quell to get the toughness back? Or does it work with passive no force weapon
even with no staff or force sword you can just passively build a lot of toughness by charging a brain burst with right click
no, all sources of quelling including passive restore toughness
even if you don't end up actually using it
Ults do, 10% quell-on-kill passive does, passive quelling does
Idk when I gun I’m to busy shooting to build peril cause why use BB
shop reset time
How does a Gun Psyker generate constant peril again?
Crusher
the ever present crushers and maulers everywhere
So Psykers, do we prefer Health Curios or Toughness Curios weighting?
(and also dog/flamer spawns)
Trappers too
Maulers are fine just shoot them in the chest
pre-charging with right click to chunk them then shooting them for the kill
Gun curios
trappers still die in one BB and they run fucking fast
so if it shoots and skitters you're better off BBing it than chasing it around a corner
if you manually quell for a split second right after using some warp attack and then immediately switch to your melee, it continues to passive quell rather than having to wait
yeah but like...they call you special
into the dark
it seems to ultimately depend on what kind of enemies you struggle most against, I've stacked both comfortably and don't see too big of a difference. When I stack toughness I wish I had health when I stack health I wish I had toughness depending on what happened that match.
are you sure this isn't just because the act of quelling and then swapping has its own time dleay
but I'll check
nope, definitely faster! It's very nice
oh, so... lol Brain Burst? But most of the time as a Gun Psyker you're not using Brain Burst or generating any peril, so Quietude would be wasted
Helth
I run one toughness, one health, one wounds, and feel pretty comfortable
Lasgun
i'm basically constantly charging a right click brain burst going into enemy spawns to nuke a gunner/shotgunner at the start of a fight
The better you play, the better toughness curios are, since heresy and damnation rifle squads can punch through 100 toughness easily before you can react, so having 130 or even 150 is a huge difference
HP curios can save you from going 100->0 more often due to bad melee positioning or disablers that you get saved late (but eventually, nonehtless) on, but it's rarer
Lasgun barely tickles a crusher’s nipples
