psyker-class

[orchid nacelle]

like they begin and end with ellipses

[vivid merlin]

is a rager a specialist

[wise pecan]

I don’t believe so

[worn mica]

why wont the shop give me a purg staff 😭

[orchid nacelle]

pray to the omnissiah

[worn mica]

i havent had one since the teens

[wise pecan]

Specialists are enemies that spawn in to directly disrupt your team (trappers, hounds, bursters, flamers, etc). Ragers, gunners, crushers, etc are I think elites, which are generally prespawned and basically just regular goons that do what they normally do a bit better

[orchid nacelle]

they should add a shrine of the emperor where you can go pray for better rng

[full atlas]

any tips on how to get these done?

[worn mica]

pray

[orchid nacelle]

pick n mix is the most annoying one

[hard stratus]

pick n mix should be easy

just take the 3rd talent from lvl 30

and start popping heads

2 then force push and quell for a sec

[wise pecan]

For pick n mix: choose the feat that makes your BB faster. For both: choose the feat that lowers recharge time upon killing an elite, and have a Veteran friend with bio-optic targeting on comms

[hard stratus]

then 3 more

[orchid nacelle]

i did a hi-intensity combat zone heresy mission to get it

[leaden pier]

mebe also the one with less peril gain for warp charge too

to maximize bb before max peril

[simple junco]

Does the bonus damage from Psykinetic's Wrath also factor into the Purgatus staff's burn tick rate?

[wise pecan]

Eyy I see your Stellaris pfp

[wise pecan]

I believe it only affects your staff’s direct damage

[leaden pier]

i know nothing about stellaris i just saw pic of big snale

[ebon jolt]

Damage buffs don’t affect DoT damage. To my knowledge*

[orchid nacelle]

that's a shame

[simple junco]

Shame

[leaden pier]

i know snale is from stellaris

[orchid nacelle]

Hey a stellaris enjoyer in the wild

[leaden pier]

and das it

[onyx oracle]

Hi all, which is better?
Left or Right?

[orchid nacelle]

those are the same staff

[simple junco]

Both look good

I think the right one is slightly better as it's equipped

[weak galleon]

both are meh

[orchid nacelle]

yeah

[hard stratus]

fam that's the same staff

[weak galleon]

oh, and they are same staff.

[split oxide]

psykers suffer most when everyone else is 'speedrunning/farming'

[onyx oracle]

Sorry

Which is better. Sorry I did not see is same!

[hard stratus]

you can cut out before most lol psykers just suffer

[weak galleon]

both are meh.
36% blast radius voidstrike vs 53% dmg/60%blast

I wouldn't upgrade to orange any of them

[tight saddle]

Put on a knife and join the race!

[onyx oracle]

Which should I use till I get a better one?

[hard stratus]

left one is better tho more in dmg and warp resist

[simple junco]

Force Knife when

[meager eagle]

has there been a hotfix to the surge staff VFX yet?

[onyx oracle]

Also is this good? Should I yellow it?

[hard stratus]

not to my knowledge

[full egret]

lmao

[split oxide]

I don't think psykers are built to 'solo'

[meager eagle]

damn shame

[weak galleon]

would use left one, imho.

at least it got damage and good perks/blesings.

[full egret]

pick and mix is the worst. First you need to pray that three of the targets aren't a bulwark, reaver and crusher

[tight saddle]

With special attack charging it to warp throw it and explode on hit

[hard stratus]

they should announce it in service updates when they fix it

[meager eagle]

alrighty, appreciate it

[full egret]

ideally, you get a machinegunner, shotgunner, sniper, trapper and flamer.

[orchid nacelle]

you can start the chain with one of those guys

[meager eagle]

in my case it was 5 shotgunners all spawned together lol

[full egret]

and pray that absolutely none of your teamates shoot them

[leaden pier]

2h force sword would be rad

[full egret]

doesnt count

[meager eagle]

did for me

[tight saddle]

We're already getting one

[full egret]

really?

[leaden pier]

yea

[meager eagle]

yep

[full egret]

It literally says different

[orchid nacelle]

brain burst, brain burst, press F with kinetic barrage, final burst

[leaden pier]

same enemies count

[full egret]

fucking liar shark

[hard stratus]

it has to be elite enemies

[full egret]

what does that wording even mean

[leaden pier]

it probably means different as in individual enemies

[full egret]

ah yes, let me kill someone twice!

[leaden pier]

yea

[hard stratus]

not the first and probably not the last time

[leaden pier]

idunno why it says that

[tight saddle]

To make sure you don't BB the same dead elite over and over. Who knows what Fatshart thinks

[meager eagle]

oh yeah, when it comes to this one, anyway to track which mission types you've already completed?

[leaden pier]

it's like the vet on overwatch penance, where you actually have to take no health damage from melee, but it just say no melee damage

[full egret]

current modifier is pox hounds, so I'm not gonna bother

since they're two shot

even with 6 stacks

[hard stratus]

damn my head still hurts after using surge staff for just 1 mission and it was like 30 min ago

[leaden pier]

is bb affected by warp charge stacks?

[meager eagle]

ikr, all my life ive never been prone to motion sickness in games

[tight saddle]

Hounds aren't elites

[meager eagle]

but using the surge staff for like 10 minutes got my head spinning

[full egret]

specialist though right?

[leaden pier]

yea

[tight saddle]

Yep

[hard stratus]

there are some miracle workers in fatshark huh

[hard breach]

Correct. What it means you need to bb 5 elites or specials. Can be any or even 5 shotgunners

[full egret]

then they count

[leaden pier]

specials count too?

[drowsy fog]

Ye

[leaden pier]

ill keep that in mind

[hard breach]

Yes

[full egret]

but they take two shots even with maxed stacks so its not going to ever work

[drowsy fog]

Anything that isn't a common mook or monstrosity

[full egret]

along with that whole jumping on you and ruining your chances

[leaden pier]

at least they are staggered when you are locked on them

most of the time

[drowsy fog]

I'm about to just grind out a bunch of heresy missions doing nothing but bb and hoping I win the lottery for pick n mix at this point

Can't count on anyone to let me attempt

[leaden pier]

the most ive got was 4

[hard stratus]

VFX people form fatshark team working for tzeentch no doubt

[low tulip]

has anyone figured out how to consistently raise shop gear scores? cause I've been stuck with max 350+ weapons for the last week and been buying them all but haven't seen anything that hits 360 ilevels :/

[full egret]

lmao no

[fresh reef]

is the knife good on psyker or is it pretty much just relegated to zealot bleed build?

[full egret]

most enemies have been ignoring my staggers

hell, I've even gotten hit after killing the enemy

i saw that like its rare

its not

[leaden pier]

if you hold the left click charge ive seen them stagger most of the time

[drowsy fog]

Pretty sure it's just level based plus luck

[full egret]

"most"

[hard stratus]

for psyker it's either the axe or force sword

[leaden pier]

saved me a couple times

[fresh reef]

combat mk5 ax right?

[full egret]

I've had a trapper completely ignore a left click charge

literally last game

[drowsy fog]

Chain sword isn't terrible

[full egret]

I'm giving knife a try for that extra run speed

[drowsy fog]

Lots of people like the movement of dueling sword too

[full egret]

so I can approach my death at record speed

[hard stratus]

psyker charges back at the incoming mutant

[drowsy fog]

Stab it in the eye as it grabs you lol

[fresh reef]

just got this as a gift, good rolls or nah?

don't really intend on upgrading

[runic gate]

Dueling sword feels good and works well but once you hit 4/5s it doesn’t work very well.

[ornate hamlet]

does knife run faster than dueling sword?

[full egret]

used to, that movement is gone now

[runic gate]

No

[drowsy fog]

I believe their movement is the exact same don't quote me tho

Dueling sword is pretty to look at but the actual use of it isn't my style

[weak galleon]

I wish whoever designed psyker's talent tree would spend 30 hours with fully leveled and equipped Battle Wizard in Vermintide 2, playing around lvl10, 20, 25 and 30 talents.

like, the contrast in how impactful different builds are is just staggering between DTide psyker and Vt2 BW.

[drowsy fog]

They'll probably buff us at some point but I'm not worried about it I have fun either way who cares about meta

[weak galleon]

it's not about meta.

[leaden pier]

the only thing i care about is if im having fun

[weak galleon]

it's more about how the different builds feel.

[leaden pier]

and look cool

[drowsy fog]

^^^

[fresh reef]

I like AB build because it just deletes shooter groups from the video game

[drowsy fog]

Fun is always the optimal play

[cyan notch]

not really imo bw is pretty set except for volcanic force vs famished flames

[hard stratus]

but there is no variety it'e either brain burst build or soul flame build with purgatus staff

[fringe garden]

It would be a lot more fun if BB wasn't trash and if we had better melee options

[hard stratus]

and with lesser variety less people can have fun

[weak galleon]

Lingering exists too for hyperdensity. Not a common pick, but it also significantly changes how you approach the hordes/weapon selection.
Then there's Tranquility boost vs much faster cast speed on active tranq.
Then there's Kaboom vs double ult.

DTide psyker got none of that feeling.

maaaybe level 30 SBlaze vs fast BB's

[drowsy fog]

Find your fun where you can I'm not the dev I can't address your complaints lol

[hard stratus]

you started talking about having fun

[fringe garden]

I don't think anyone is asking you to.

[weak galleon]

I'd start with having 4 valid staves instead of 3, for a start.

[leaden pier]

tru

[cyan notch]

rechannel is not picked at all unless you just cast only every 6s aka no one does that seriously
no one picks lingering either since ucant stack dots
no one also picks kaboom bc double firewalk is too good

[teal cargo]

Lingering used to be picked with Famished 😔

[primal aurora]

should I upgrade this staff and what are the best perks for purge staff?

[leaden pier]

yea upgrade

[weak galleon]

wdym, I'm maining Kaboom BW. It has it's solid perks over double.
Lingering is def. weaker than famished (though, as I heard, it beats it at modded Cata), Rechannel is completely valid pick for clutch situations and some staves that greatly benefit from fully charged shots.

[cyan notch]

nobody is gonna pick a niche perk for "clutch situations" which is garbage for normal play when the other option is much better all around

[weak galleon]

but most importantly - yes, all of these make BW feel different.
While here I can delete half of the talent tree and I won't feel a thing.

[cyan notch]

and sure you can argue people do use those but 90% of builds of bw are the same

[weak galleon]

my teammates sure enjoy not blinding the fuck out of them each time I spam ult via purple pot.

[teal cargo]

Hey I remeber BH had a ltota diff builds

and IB too

Unchained I think ddidi but I just use flail

[cyan notch]

ddidi

[hard stratus]

the what now?

dididi deez nuts?

[teal cargo]

did

[leaden pier]

did what

[weak galleon]

like, all I want are impactful talents that also make me make hard decisions on "what should I pick", and noticeably alter the way I approach the game.

instead of... this.

[hard stratus]

i mean yes but also we are getting more classes so i'm not sure how this will work

[ebon jolt]

Currently the best perk is crit %. Everything else is pretty meh.

[hard stratus]

if they flesh out psykinetic too much all the other classes will feel the same

[orchid nacelle]

i bet the next class they release for psyker is going to be objectively an upgrade to whatever this one is

[cyan notch]

thats a valid sentiment but comparing it to bw doesnt make sense imo cuz it had even less meaningful options most of it was only 1 pick

[weak galleon]

it depends on if the classes will be paid DLCs or not.
looks at SoTT, GK and WP

[primal aurora]

crit % is that good?

[hard stratus]

depending if grendyl is radical or not we may get a more chaosy psyker

[ebon jolt]

Crits apply 2 stacks of DoT ramping your damage faster.

[primal aurora]

oh

[hard stratus]

yeah Warrior Priest was nutty

[ebon jolt]

Also making Warp Nexus the best blessing for the staff.

[weak galleon]

yes, I'm still trying to find my own crit purge staff with good Damage/Burn/Cloud radius stats.
Crits affect amount of SB stacks you apply

[orchid nacelle]

i would like a "concentration" style psyker power where you grip an enemy and crush them with telekinesis or like, soul siphon them

drain their health to restore your toughness or something

but that would probably just translate to "brain burst but better"

[hard stratus]

well the telekinesis is the psyKINETIC we have currently with the push and head pop

[orchid nacelle]

right but we don't have a telekine

[weak galleon]

given the state of brain burst at high difficulties, even without current peril quell bug?
Alot of ideas and abilities would translate into "brain burst but better".

[orchid nacelle]

yeah lmao

[hard stratus]

true

it'd be fun to get a support style psyker

with more proximity support talents

or even shield like Warrior Priest Saltz had

[worn canopy]

bb at 97 then exploding

is it bugged

[vital bough]

Okay so, I've seen online that people were saying max Crit Chance perk on a weapon is 8% but I've got the lvl 4 perk and it's only +5% crit

[simple junco]

I wonder why the FS alt doesn't give a stack of WC

[split oxide]

support style psyker, but everyone runs off in diff. directions

[ebon jolt]

Data mined information was posted but does not reflect what is available in game.

[orchid nacelle]

use kinetic flayer 4head

[weak galleon]

If only we had shared inventories...

[split oxide]

sorry for the dumb question: wossa warpcharge?

[orchid nacelle]

psyker gubbin

every kill with brain burst gives a warp charge, gives 3% damage per charge

[hard stratus]

Too true 💀

[orchid nacelle]

they also have some feats which can alter the way they receive warp charges

[simple junco]

Is psykinetic's aura even worth using?

[vital bough]

Yeah it took me no shit like 30 minutes of just rerolling on a weapon to even get the +5% crit, would only give the lvl 3 +4% crit lol

[orchid nacelle]

i always use psykinetic aura

[vital bough]

So I guess that's what we got right now

[orchid nacelle]

i stand next to the veteran and i reset his ult every few seconds

it's nice

[weak galleon]

Wait, you can get a crit perk on purgatus, right?

[orchid nacelle]

i tend to use brain burst a lot anyway so warp charge maintenance isn't a big deal

[hard stratus]

It's funny to do if you are in voice with the vet

[simple junco]

I might start doing that tbh, vet ults on T4/T5 help immensely

[cyan notch]

yea u either be a team player and give your team ults or u get free 4% warp charges

[simple junco]

Plus I always BB since I run Purg

[vital bough]

Warp Nexus lets you get up to 25% crit chance, yeah. So it's a max of 30% it seems

If 30% is the max crit chance you can EVER get on anything, I'm kinda sad.

[simple junco]

Considering how fast it hits, we should be grateful it isn't lower

[weak galleon]

I meant perk.
but yeah, without Warp Nexus it's probably not very useful

[orchid nacelle]

giving your team ults directly contributes to your own survival

which is funny because you'd think, as a psyker, telepathically detecting enemies would be a thing that you could do

i guess brainless nurgle zombies don't really have a warp presence

[simple junco]

They're detected from SNOIPEH VISION though

[orchid nacelle]

exactly

so that's why i use psykinetic aura

[simple junco]

(tbh I wonder how OP it would be if we could BB targets that are highlighted through walls)

[fresh reef]

combat knife is really fun

animations are flashy as hell, the movespeed is very noticeable for both gaining distance and closing the gap

plus stabbing people is funny

[simple junco]

Gonna give it a shot

[hard stratus]

British people be like

[fresh reef]

use it more as a tool than a weapon

though don't forget that it does, in fact, oneshot scab shooters to the head

[simple junco]

That's how I used my FS tbh

[fresh reef]

same here

[orchid nacelle]

i still retain that if brain burst's right click were a multi-target brain burst for extra peril cost it would be far more satisfying to use

[fresh reef]

and it was boring

[fresh reef]

I like this idea

[simple junco]

Yeahhh, that movespeed sounds really enticing

[hard stratus]

Yeah but you have to be almost kissing them to headshot with the knife

[orchid nacelle]

would it really be that busted to let us brain burst like 5 people at once

it just saves time tbh

we were gonna do that anyway

[simple junco]

Funny enough, the combat knife does almost more damage than a FS

[orchid nacelle]

pick n mix would actually be really fun to get if you had a multi target brain burst

[soft prawn]

which is better?

[hard stratus]

No but fatshark is allergic to fun

[simple junco]

Let us at least throw knives

[hard stratus]

Meh

[simple junco]

I'm starved for a ranged option okay

[orchid nacelle]

pick n mix would be a genuinely fun achievement to grind for if we had that multi target brain burst

[hard stratus]

We have way better ranged options

[simple junco]

Purg 4 lyfe

[orchid nacelle]

simultaneously decapitating 5 shotgunners simultaneously would make me cream irl

[hard stratus]

Surge me brudda surge

[orchid nacelle]

simultaneously

[hard stratus]

But my hands are tied until they fix the VFX

[simple junco]

I get why surge is strong, but it just doesn't feel good to use for me

[orchid nacelle]

i can't use the surge staff because it makes me feel like a gimped dawn of war psyker

which i mean, i guess that's accurate

dawn of war psykers could chain lightning entire squads though

[hard stratus]

Lul

[orchid nacelle]

strip soul is the actual gigachad version of brain burst

[simple junco]

Also, has Endless Horde been lumped in with Hi Intensity Engagements?

[orchid nacelle]

Strip Soul fucking oneshots generals

[hard stratus]

It wouldn't hurt to hit a few more targets with the lightning that is true

[dim pier]

Yeah, I think it's just renamed

[simple junco]

I've been missing out then

[orchid nacelle]

join the brain burst cope corner

[hard stratus]

If they did replace bb with strip it would need to become a cooldown and the push to be the "grenade" slot

Because it does literally rip someone's soul out

[orchid nacelle]

they could literally just replace the boring right click charge with anything else

[hard stratus]

True

[orchid nacelle]

make strip soul the fully charged right click and make it generate like 80 peril or something

[ornate hamlet]

from a tier 1 smh

[orchid nacelle]

tbqh

[simple junco]

Wow, the combat knife is a refreshing change of pace

the jab is hilariously fast

[ashen ore]

What does this symbol mean below the missions?

[frigid zenith]

Completion at certain difficulty.

[hard stratus]

To be honest @ornate hamlet there is a lot of green on the mission terminal

[ornate hamlet]

factual tbh

[valid lake]

same it feels jank to use it has a good use though

[ashen ore]

It is 100% a support weapon and you have to make the sacrifice of having less fun when playing support.

It is the burden all supports carry

[worn mica]

so i got a purg staff finally but its pretty bad

[hard stratus]

Copium

[hard stratus]

Also I'm having a lot of fun with surge

It just depends

[ashen ore]

I am too, it is my main weapon and I like to shoot lighting bolts but sometimes I just want to hack and slash in the mission but if I stop shooting lightning bolts people die lol

Look away for 2 secs to kill a guy and team gets run over lol

[hard stratus]

Having peoples lives at your fingertips

Literally

[full coral]

my eyes hurts when using a surge staff now so gotta pass on surge staff for now

[echo parrot]

Did I win at psyker?

[hard stratus]

Yes

[ornate hamlet]

beauty

[hard stratus]

You are now John Warhammer

[orchid nacelle]

i would do awful terrible things to get that sword

[hard stratus]

It's a visual bug currently worked on also it's a epilepsy hazard

[worn mica]

He is the Warhammer 40k

[orchid nacelle]

things only Ian Watson would write about

[full coral]

Ye I heard about it. Love playing the psyker + surge staff but rn now its unplayable. Hope for a hotfix soon

[fresh reef]

anyone else notice that the devs added pages to the preemo shop?

personally I'm very confused by all the extra panels

[orchid nacelle]

i'm very confused by the ongoing crusade against fun that fatshark seems to be perpetuating

i'm confounded, even

vexed

[hard stratus]

Ah of course the game itself is fucked but gotta have that cash shop shining

Greed shark

[orchid nacelle]

this probably wasn't a fatshark decision

[fresh reef]

what

[orchid nacelle]

this was probably a tencent decision

[fresh reef]

dude this is a good thing

[potent echo]

Weirdos gotta weird

[fresh reef]

this means items in the shop aren't on a shitty fomo timer

[hard stratus]

Mb i misunderstood then

Tho I'm standing by the greedshark

[patent ledge]

you have tided the dark

[fresh reef]

live footage of obesefish listening to feedback

[orchid nacelle]

now they are morbidly a beast

i've heard people discussing some sort of "reverse escort mission" concept

wherein you're escorted by a space marine through otherwise unnegotiable circumstances or somesuch

he protects you rejects while you do the job

[tight niche]

that sounds fun

like a moving "turret"

[orchid nacelle]

another server i'm in was discussing how seamlessly it could be integrated into the game

[hard stratus]

Hmm not sure how they would put it in the story of the game itself tho

[tight niche]

well a grey knight would be overkill

[vital bough]

[tight niche]

so maybe deathwatch?

[vital bough]

Holy karking SHIET

They did it

[hard stratus]

Either a chapter arrives at Atoma and rejects are not needed

[orchid nacelle]

it could just be hadron on the radio saying "varlets, an astartes will be present to escort you to the dropship"

simple as

[hard stratus]

Or a small marine squad is requisitioned by Grendyl

[orchid nacelle]

maybe ground conditions are too hostile to proceed without a force multiplier

[elfin crystal]

that's good for purga right?. not the blessing, i mean the stats

[vital bough]

Yes, yes it is.

[cyan notch]

how do u get 380 weapons

[long wharf]

pretty damn good

[vital bough]

Luck lol

[tight niche]

we're pretty much worthless in the inq. tho so it would have to be a pretty dire mission

[cyan notch]

my shit is always just 350 max

[orchid nacelle]

hive cities are prime recruiting grounds for space marines

[elfin crystal]

pog

yeah luck really

[hard stratus]

Did what?

[elfin crystal]

it,s the only good staff i,ve found so far

[vital bough]

Put pages in the store lol

[long wharf]

no, they're recruiting grounds for the militarum

space marines are bred

[orchid nacelle]

not all of them

[hard stratus]

What?

[orchid nacelle]

sometimes they yoink promising youths from hive cities

[hard stratus]

No they are not lol

[orchid nacelle]

space marines are not bred

[hard stratus]

Marines recruit from worlds

[long wharf]

according to the latest lore I read

[orchid nacelle]

they're heavily augmented and psychoindoctrinated from warrior cultures

hive cities form really hard, bastardly children

[long wharf]

the space marine legions are geneseed bred from their respective primarchs

[orchid nacelle]

yeah, the gene seed

[orchid nacelle]

has to go into someone

[hard stratus]

My boy you have been reading 4d4chan lol

[tight niche]

Just played a match where my audio got desynced. It was so uncomfortable

Like the opposite of Ultra Instinct

[manic needle]

I just played a match where my penance was fucked up by another Psyker in the lobby for no reason. Feels bad.

[long wharf]

is that the mode where Goku shoots lightning everywhere but has an epileptic seizure doing it?

[orchid nacelle]

actually, there's a fellow on youtube who's doing a series about the space marine creation process

from an actual doctor/medical scientist perspective

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OXjNpNpWXw

don't mind the clickbait

[simple junco]

It's the most where goku gets shot in the face by a sniper because the sound didn't exist

i love that one

hate that one

[trail garnet]

Kinda weird they add a new mission, and then it goes hours without you seeing that mission displayed as available

[simple junco]

I remain ambivalent to that one

[cyan notch]

i like the part where enemies spawn 360 around you non stop while getting sniped and 500 gunners appear out of nowhere

I won't play surge until FatDevs fix the stupid VFX

[cyan notch]

yea ive been using kantrael xii lol

[long wharf]

and playing poxhound special condition without a surge psyker is basically cancer

[cyan notch]

seems fine in heresy

[trail garnet]

I don't know which is worst honestly, the constant beeping of the poxburster or the constant howling of he poxhounds. I hate both

[orchid nacelle]

i got kicked from a public group for using surge staff

lol

[cyan notch]

the beeping poxbuster but hes stuck in a door and wont come out

then he teleports away

[south canopy]

I mean, it's literally got a seizure warning attached to it right now

[long wharf]

then they're idiots, you aren't missing out on playing with them

[cyan notch]

yes

pretty sure its intended

[elfin crystal]

oh. interesting then

[fresh reef]

does it look both terrifying and drippy?

that's what I was attempting

[hard stratus]

More cursed than drippy

[south canopy]

Big fan of the new psyker cosmetic outfit but not a huge fan of it coming with a camo pattern

Differently dyed variants would be nice tbh

[simple junco]

If you pay for a cosmetic, you should at least be allowed to change the color

[elfin crystal]

just.... more options really

[simple junco]

Just ran a mission without psychic communion... And wow, that 4% is very noticeable.

[patent ledge]

yeah, but it's kinda clunky when changing it, it'll eventually does tho

[elfin crystal]

i see thanks

can you do that with other guns too?

or just staves

[south canopy]

Oh yeah, psychic communion is the goat

[patent ledge]

im not sure, i only did it on staves

[elfin crystal]

alright

[orchid nacelle]

it'd be funny if being near a daemonhost as a psyker would cause your peril to slowly increase resulting in you having to pay more attention to quelling

psyker needs more environmental interactions like that

[gritty timber]

hi fellow Psykers, are the quell issues fixed or still being worked on?

[orchid nacelle]

still there

[weak galleon]

"worked on"

[orchid nacelle]

i've learned to cope though

[worn mica]

just failed a mission where TWO beasts of nurgle spawned

[gritty timber]

aw shucks, guess i'll avoid playing it for now

[worn mica]

at the SAME TIME

[orchid nacelle]

i've started intentionally holding on to ult overcapping myself and then using ult to bail myself out

that doesn't seem to cause the quell bug

[worn mica]

is that not how youre supposed to use it?

[orchid nacelle]

i assumed it was more for crowd control

rather than a safety net

[hard stratus]

It's basically a free get out of jail card mixed with some flavor of utility i.e soul flame or faster and less costly BB

[orchid nacelle]

ahhh

tbh the nicest part about the soulblaze one is the fact that it causes all of your soulblaze to have a chance to generate warp charges on kill

because the soulblaze that it applies even with 6 charges is pitiful

if you're using the purgatus staff then it's basically a no brainer

otherwise i use kinetic barrage all the time

[ornate hamlet]

quicken until its bug gets fixed > all tbh

[orchid nacelle]

what's the quicken bug

[ornate hamlet]

i just get the full cooldown back a majority of the time i use it, as opposed to 50%

[simple junco]

The 6x soulblaze stacks on a crowd is great with the staff, without it run anything else

[ornate hamlet]

it usually gives it to you when the server is lagging a bit. if youre using purge during a horde, you get it back pretty much every time cause you lag the game a bit with all the effects

[cyan notch]

i actually hate flamers bc of that

fps just tanks

[ornate hamlet]

yeah

was able to get 3 in a row off once though

was neat

[orchid nacelle]

kinetic barrage is the only one that actually feels like it enables this hypothetical "rotation" that fatshark seems to be trying to encourage

since it, like, gives you a brain burst phase

[ornate hamlet]

kinetic barrage would be the best if BB wasn't just outclassed at t5

its easily the coolest level 30 ability

[orchid nacelle]

it'd be nice if it didn't require the extra level of contrivance of needing to have your brain burst equipped beforehand to not waste its duration

[simple junco]

If Inner Tranquility was actually an innate passive, I think Kinetic barrage would be much better

[orchid nacelle]

i've played ff14 so i've gotten accustomed to managing my ability cooldown times with extreme precision

so the fact that i need to prepare my brain burst to take full advantage of the buff window infuriates me

it's the opposite of intuitive

KB's duration shouldn't start ticking until you actually have your brain burst equipped

[bronze sierra]

thoughts?

[weak galleon]

Warp Nexus Purgatus "at home".
I guess still better than no warp nexus at all, but... yeah

[simple junco]

Tbh, KB should probably proc on WC gain to promote the use of BB.

[weak galleon]

should I even bother upgrading it to purple...

[orchid nacelle]

YES., THIS

[ornate hamlet]

agreed. also not a fan of how it takes 4 bbs to kill crushers/reapers at t5. that's still 9 seconds of straight bb in a row for 1 enemy

compared to a vet which can take care of them in like 1.5s

[ebon jolt]

I just wish BB was like that all the time.

[simple junco]

Vets kinda take over as the big boi killers at tier 4/5. Psykers kinda fall into that niche of picking off ultra slippery targets like bombers

[ornate hamlet]

yeah i feel like bb is tough to balance because it's on a thin line from being either op or terrible. but 3s per use is so horrible feeling especially how many bb's it takes on damnation

[simple junco]

And horde control, depending on the build

[orchid nacelle]

please just make the right click do literally anything else

the only utility it has is popping poxbursters as soon as you can

[ornate hamlet]

literally only ever time i used right click was when i was going for the warp explosion kill penance lol

[orchid nacelle]

or that

charging it with right click should at least do more damage

[ornate hamlet]

at least something

[pulsar sleet]

Does holding right click not do more dmg?

[orchid nacelle]

nope

[pulsar sleet]

I’m so confused

[simple junco]

Nope, it's just a preemptive strike

It also takes longer to charge, I think

[orchid nacelle]

it just charges slower and costs a shitload of peril for no reason

lol

[pulsar sleet]

I’m brand new to psyker idk what everyone’s talking about

So

[wild token]

Brain busrt pre charging

[pulsar sleet]

I have a staff that the right click shoots a big ball

Charging that doesn’t do more dmg?

[ornate hamlet]

we're referring to brain burst rmb, not staff

[pulsar sleet]

Oooooo

Sorry

[ornate hamlet]

voidstrike staff RMB does more damage + pierces

no worries

[orchid nacelle]

telekinesis alternative to brain burst that lets you grab enemies and fling them around like dark messiah

lmao

[ebon jolt]

Is 21% the current max health boost from curio blessings?

[elfin crystal]

think so ye

[ebon jolt]

Thanks.

[cyan notch]

i like how fatshark released a patch with a bunch of bugs and then just went home and said lmao enjoy see u on monday

[echo parrot]

Gamedevs deserve time off just like everyone else.

It is the weekend after all

[remote fox]

can somone explain how my score goes down 10 points if I upgrade this?

[echo parrot]

You can survive a few days without a video game

[echo parrot]

It doesn't. It's a ui bug

[cyan notch]

i didnt say any of that

thats your thing

[echo parrot]

After you upgrade it you will see the stats number stayed the same

[nimble burrow]

Is there a list of these bugs already? I only knew about the surge staff vfx

[echo parrot]

100% peril quell delay bug

One of the most annoying

[nimble burrow]

Thats not a feature?

[elfin crystal]

i don't think we're getting anything else til january

[lyric hatch]

if a curio has a "10% dmg resist from gunners" is it all gunfire or just gunners

[nimble burrow]

I just swap to my staff and quell instantly

[elfin crystal]

monday is already the 19th

[echo parrot]

No, it was acknowledged as a bug by Hedge

[nimble burrow]

Lmao

[summer vine]

Gunners only.

[elfin crystal]

i wish it was all gunners. jesus that'd be amazing

[remote fox]

so 4 pips = max roll Perk?

[echo parrot]

Yes

[ebon jolt]

Purg staff can roll weak spot damage?

[echo parrot]

Interesting

[elfin crystal]

i don't think i've seen more than 3 pips

[remote fox]

so both of these are max roll?

[elfin crystal]

oh you mean those

[remote fox]

no these are Blessings

[elfin crystal]

oh huh til

[elfin crystal]

hopefully we can upgrade them at some point

without having to reroll like dumb

[echo parrot]

Infested enemies feels kinda meh on a force sword but it's whatever I guess

[remote fox]

but can all blessings roll the 4 line thing?

[elfin crystal]

i'd assume yeah

[echo parrot]

Blessings are rolled when consecrated, otherwise we will be able to upgrade them later on

[remote fox]

but max roll Blessings says 100 and I have one T3 and one T4 it looks like

[remote fox]

here

[ebon jolt]

Some blessings are only available at a specific tier. Like channeling not being interrupted is a tier 2 blessing with no upgrade. Hit & run is a tier 3 blessing with no upgrade or downgrade. If a blessing has any sort of % then usually it is tiered.

[echo parrot]

They will prob add a similar graphic like the perks have when we are able to upgrade the blessings and such

[remote fox]

thank you for all the info

[worn mica]

i would do very bad things for that sword

things that would make slaanesh look tame

[simple junco]

After doing a few rounds with a combat knife, I don't think I'm going back to FS

[valid marsh]

Soooo do you guys think they actually nerfed psyker's quell by giving it a delay at 100%?

[echo parrot]

I have like 6 different deflector swords I am waiting to merge for a full 15% block deflector blessing

[echo parrot]

#psyker-class message

[valid marsh]

ah thank you

[crisp storm]

gang, is there a list of meta builds (weapons/feats?)

[valid marsh]

Would be pretty fucking funny if they saw how ass Psyker's talent tree was and then decided "nah, lets nerf him"

[worn mica]

this decent for a 360?

[cyan notch]

pretty sure its 12%

[oblique jasper]

purge or surge staff for lvl 4/5 missions, what do you guys prefer

[simple junco]

Trauma

[ebon jolt]

I have 1 level 1, 1 level 2 and 2 level 3 deflectors. Don't have enough resources yet 😦 Also I haven't seen a single exorcist yet.

[worn mica]

no

[simple junco]

Lel

Trauma actually does good work staggering the big uns though

[oblique jasper]

Really? That's interesting, i rank trauma on the bottom of my list for all the staves

[simple junco]

It was a joke, but Trauma is more useful than you believe

Don't let the propaganda get to you

[full egret]

remember, playing music in the background while playing is canonical to psyker

[oblique jasper]

Yea it's def in the top 5 of all the staffs

[echo parrot]

Yeah you're right.

[worn mica]

cause trauma is bottom

[simple junco]

Surge*

[oblique jasper]

Elaborate, please

Surge is really good for CC

[remote fox]

I like Purge

[worn mica]

false, surge is a cc monster

[oblique jasper]

make it easier for teammates basically , but ulose the ability to clutch

I havent been able to clutch at higher levels with a surge

[simple junco]

So is Trauma and Purgatus tbh

[echo parrot]

I too am a fan of inflicting epileptic seizures

[teal cargo]

its not bad for clutch

[simple junco]

Trauma actually lets you aim the stun though, rather than have it hit 8 people and inflict a seizure

[full egret]

oh, just that hearing uneathly music is a thing for the warp with slaanesh being there and all. And any music you listen to would be unearthly for your psyker

[teal cargo]

Surge and Purge are the super bright stuff

[worn mica]

if i got a good purg i would like it more

[full egret]

Hell, english is unearthly for them

[remote fox]

Purge lets you perma CC everything

[valid marsh]

MkV Combat Axe, Force Sword with Deflection, Surge Staff are basically the best weapons
Feats include Inner Tranquility, Psychic Communion, Kinetic Deflection, Kinetic Flayer and Kinetic Barrage/Ascendant Blaze

Ignore everything else because they are all shit.

[worn mica]

what perk for a mk5 axe?

[valid marsh]

[crisp storm]

ty

[valid marsh]

Love it when more than 75% of a tree is dogshit

so fun

[worn mica]

infested damage?

[worn mica]

feelsbad

[valid marsh]

So useful!!!!

[simple junco]

Purgatus is the best "oh shit" moment staff

[valid marsh]

Situational AND mediocre

[elfin crystal]

idk i prefer surge for that, but purga withsuppress probably is nice for that too

[worn mica]

also our toughness is LAUGHABLY low

100 does jack shit

[simple junco]

Idk, if surge went through more enemies it would be one thing

[remote fox]

only thing is the shield guys you cant do anything to and full blocks your flame

[elfin crystal]

yeah psykers are paperthin, but heh. doesn,t matter too much

[simple junco]

You're legit supposed to BB them to stun

[worn mica]

were a glass cannon but the cannon left to go get milk

[oblique jasper]

Would you say the stats on this staff are pretty good?

[remote fox]

BB?

[simple junco]

Brain Burst

[worn mica]

what perk do you want on a mk5 axe

[valid marsh]

Please for the love of god you had vermintide as a caster/melee class example list I would be fine if you just put Sienna in Darktide By the EmperorAnd/OrSigmar please make psyker actually viable

[elfin crystal]

idk i've never had trouble with surge for that. just spam the ever loving shit out of it and it'll stun everything in front of you

[valid marsh]

Every class can do what Psyker doe better

Veteran is better at Psyker's job than Psyker

[remote fox]

ahh yea I just mean its the only thing that makes you swap XD

[worn mica]

anyone?

[simple junco]

Except crowd control, BB targets behind walls, and wave clear

[oblique jasper]

Not sure nanook, dont use the axe

[elfin crystal]

bad warp resist, high charge rate are going to hurt a fair bit

but warp flurry is nice

[valid marsh]

Correct, Zealot and Ogryn does those better

[worn mica]

you dont need charge rate on surge

[valid marsh]

Psyker isn't even Jack of All Trades

Psyker is just Jack

[oblique jasper]

I havent had much peril problems with inner tranquility

and psy comm ^

[simple junco]

Ogryn doesn't kill a horde with his charge and zealot has a slow flamer that has a year long equip time

[valid marsh]

Jack of no trades, master of getting downed first

[simple junco]

It's situational, as everything else is in this game

[worn mica]

zealot has eviscerator

[valid marsh]

He doesn't need to kill a horde with his charge he can swing at them and be done with it

[oblique jasper]

Im of the opinion that purg staff is better than zealot flamer

[elfin crystal]

no you don't understand. it might not hurt too much from your point of view, but get high resist, low charge rate and you will realize. it allows you to spam by magnitude larger

[simple junco]

It's better for quick engagements

[elfin crystal]

which is what you want on surge mainly

[burnt fjord]

i went with block efficiency to tank daemonhosts, and +flak dmg. anything that gives consistent damage should be fine. unarmored/infested may not be best choice since you should one shot most of them anyway

[oblique jasper]

hmm, I thought that high charge rate would be better, but to be fair. I only started using surge today, i was a professional bowler before this

[valid marsh]

Psyker's talents need a complete fucking overhaul and they need to move away from "throw % increases at random things he might do"

[oblique jasper]

but voidstrike just lacks the umph required for higher difficulty missions

[elfin crystal]

usually it is, but on surge you will rarely fully charge your secondary

[simple junco]

True, and Vet has the power sword. This is great until a crusher shows up.

[elfin crystal]

instead you usually just mass spam it

[valid marsh]

When a crusher shows up I usually see it get shot to death instead

[worn mica]

whats the max roll for damage against flak

20?

[oblique jasper]

Would you take this Onlyhavok?

[valid marsh]

"Bro just brain burst it bro" because you have room to do that in heresy+ totally bro

[abstract frigate]

Emperor please. I'm a psyker. Stop sending guns.

[valid marsh]

(there is no room)

[orchid nacelle]

anyone who frequents this channel could probably design a more mechanically interesting and complex psyker kit given 30 minutes

[worn mica]

felt that

[elfin crystal]

same

[valid marsh]

"Ok I'll just back up a bit OH LOOK THE MUTANT IGNORED EVERYONE ELSE"

[simple junco]

Which staff do you use?

[valid marsh]

Surge/Purgatus

[elfin crystal]

i don't usually use brain burst past malice

[valid marsh]

If I want to have actual fun

[simple junco]

You... Should have that room if you use purgatus.

[valid marsh]

I will stick to malice

and use trauma

[elfin crystal]

except for the free bb talent

[valid marsh]

I should but then suddenly I don't

Funny how this game works

[worn mica]

whats the max roll for damage against flak. 20%?

[simple junco]

Press F to win an engagement

[oblique jasper]

Hey onlyhavok what do you think about the second staff I sent? Is that better?

[cyan notch]

25

[valid marsh]

(except when the soulblaze is simply not strong enough)

[abstract frigate]

90% of the time

[elfin crystal]

yeah, it's probably better. the damage is a bit low, but the rest is fairly good. most of the time people will just kill stuff you cc anyway so it's not that big a deal

[valid marsh]

Seriously fucking waiting for a Trauma staff buff

[elfin crystal]

crit is good on surge

[oblique jasper]

Even on that higher damage one I rarely get any kills

[simple junco]

Surge crit is pretty good

[valid marsh]

how can anyone in the dev team look at that and say "lets have it eat half your peril and deal no damage on anything past malice"

[orchid nacelle]

some people in this chat are cotton to saying that trauma staff is amazing as is

[valid marsh]

What it does do

[simple junco]

Trauma really is an unsung gem

[valid marsh]

is knock people down

Thats good

But if I want those three flak armored melee units dead

[simple junco]

Didn't someone say that an ogryn doing that was enough?

[valid marsh]

they should be dead

[orchid nacelle]

i feel like in any situation i'd want to use the trauma staff i would rather just use brain burst

[valid marsh]

if I see a crowd of poxwalkers

[oblique jasper]

Would you take warp battery + inner tranquility for surge? or just keep it a classy kinetic flayer

[valid marsh]

and my staff is supposed to make a massive explosion

literally called a smite

[elfin crystal]

yeah surge isn't that big of a killer, but luckily you get kill credits anyway

[valid marsh]

it should not knock them down

they should DIE

[simple junco]

Surge and trauma are more or less hybrid support staves

[elfin crystal]

with crit tho, it does kill stuff fairly often

[simple junco]

They give you the room against the big bois in those "oh shit" moments

[elfin crystal]

yeah

[valid marsh]

Surge being the way it is is fine because it can actually kill things

The left click is boring but eh who uses it anyway

[elfin crystal]

yeah

[valid marsh]

its a free stun and stagger

against everything

[simple junco]

Great until it isn't, sadly.

[elfin crystal]

yeah

[simple junco]

But that's all staves

[valid marsh]

It can kill crushers or anyone wearing armor like they're nothing

Thats its role

[elfin crystal]

i mean, i've yet to find a situation where surge stops working tbh

[valid marsh]

(it doesn't)

(its just really solid)

[elfin crystal]

yeah

[simple junco]

From what I've seen, someone getting cornered and there's 3 crushers and 4 maulers on us

in a horde

Happens a lot on that one auspex task where you have to wait for the elevator

[elfin crystal]

i mean, i guess if you ge 5 chargers in a row or more you might need to quell a little, but yeah

[valid marsh]

Purgatus is also somewhat fine

It could use a damage buff for the DoT

But otherwise, its fine

[simple junco]

Purgatus is more or less a space-maker if you build into it

[indigo solar]

psyker best class

[valid marsh]

Shut the hel up

[simple junco]

Hey, civil now

[elfin crystal]

oh yeah, but that's mostly just psyker in a nutshell. you can stun shit, but then you kinda need support

[orchid nacelle]

I prefer the Purgatus staff over the flamer

[simple junco]

Purgatus is quicker in all regards, that's about it

[valid marsh]

The purgatus staff is "good"

But

compound that

with how weak psyker is overall

it being faster does not balance out

[simple junco]

In a fast paced game, it kinda does

[valid marsh]

Zealot's talent tree had thought put into it

[orchid nacelle]

i've said it before but i really enjoy how it just feels like a compressed stream of industrial grade bleach

[elfin crystal]

i usually take the talent that gets you toughness while you quell with a high quell staff so at least i don't get wammed into oblivion if the situation arise

[valid marsh]

Psyker was just

"Lets throw random numbers everywhere""

"and make everything situational"

[simple junco]

I used to love that one, swapped over to the 30% WC one after a while though

[valid marsh]

I know

in six months

[elfin crystal]

i might do that

[valid marsh]

Psyker will be better

Vermintide 2 had its launch woes too

[elfin crystal]

there's still a lot i need to test and etc if the game lets me tbh

[valid marsh]

But I will still continue to complain because I fucking love Psyker.

[simple junco]

It's pretty good tbh. If you're running purgatus or surge, it's your best bet

[orchid nacelle]

purgatus staff has the same effect on nurgle worshipers as i imagine a flamethrower loaded with CHLOROX™️ would have to the same nurgle worshipers

[valid marsh]

Of all the classes that exist, none are more fun for me than Psyker (when I'm not getting shat on or veterans are stealing my brainbursts)

[elfin crystal]

mmm i see. i do am running easy warp charge generation already so why not

[orchid nacelle]

i'm going to make a mod whenever they add workshop support that turns the purgatus staff's head into a jug of bleach

[simple junco]

Yeahh, I used to not like Vets killing everything with a bolter. I kinda enjoy it now, lets me focus on making space for the team.

[valid marsh]

They have established there will never be workshop support

[orchid nacelle]

maybe in darktide 2

[valid marsh]

because this game has dedicated servers

[orchid nacelle]

omegalul

vermintide 2 has workshop support though

doesn't that have dedicated servers as well

[valid marsh]

Vermintide 2 doesn ot have dedicated servers, no

it is host based

[orchid nacelle]

ah.

i see

thank you for clarifying

[valid marsh]

Sure there's a dedicated server to sync you up with other players and let you connect to them

but otherwise no

[elfin crystal]

man i wish purgatus had an actual fireball as primary fire and not the hand wave puff

[orchid nacelle]

doesn't the handwave puff have a shitload of stagger tho

[simple junco]

Same. I wish the alt fire was a fire wave and the left click was a ranged ball

[valid marsh]

it staggers a lot

its fine

I feel like Surge should get a crit lightning bolt or something for its left click

[elfin crystal]

yeah it's fine. it's not bad. it's just... you have no ranged option at all. just small annoyance

[valid marsh]

just be zeus

[simple junco]

You gotta be creative with BB if you run Purgatus

[elfin crystal]

fair enough

[valid marsh]

BB should be faster and scale better

[summer wind]

i'm beginning to disagree

vet is overtuned, absolutely

but psyker slaps

[orchid nacelle]

i really hate how surge staff doesn't hit more dudes

[valid marsh]

[summer wind]

BB is a niche tool, but purge staff and deflector sword force sword turns you into a wrecking ball

[simple junco]

I'm running a 6 stack peril resistance build that lets me lay into the backline, but against staggered enemies you're gonna struggle wasting a BB on a normal shooter

[summer wind]

you have a lot of options and a lot of damage output

[orchid nacelle]

the part of me that has 400 hours in dawn of war screams that "psyker chain lightning hit everybody on the map yes yes?"

[summer wind]

more horde clear than anything short of a zealot with a flamer, which you can do infinitely, without ammo cost

psyker is extremely powerful

[valid marsh]

Psyker will never be complete in my eyes until his entire kit and surviveability is not reliant on Kinetic Deflection and can use guns for a compelling reason

[simple junco]

I mean, there is an option for psykers to use guns

At least until that specific gun is nerfed

[summer wind]

ignore the guns, you're a wizard

unless you like them

more power to you

[valid marsh]

PsyKINETIC key word KINETIC let me have class BONUSES to use GUNS

[summer wind]

but the staves are busted

[valid marsh]

staff* is busted

the only one that is busted is surge

[simple junco]

Kinetic + Lasgun = ??

[valid marsh]

Two of them are ok

[summer wind]

hot take, surge sucks doodoo

voidstrike and flamer are both way more useful imo

on 4/5

[valid marsh]

You are wrong, opinion disregarded

[summer wind]

that's just me though

i'll keep clearing 4's and 5's consistently

you do your thang

[bitter galleon]

Screenshots of Blaze Sword have a Vanguard-Assassin-Assassin light combos, but I've only seen triple Assassin in my game. What gives?

[orchid nacelle]

guns can do something that evey staff really can't

[valid marsh]

soulblaze on lasgun shots

[orchid nacelle]

precision damage

[summer wind]

for sure, but there's 3 other team-mates for that

[valid marsh]

voidstrike

[summer wind]

psyker fills roles they can't

[valid marsh]

I love

[summer wind]

such as infinite top tier hordeclear

[valid marsh]

voidstriking a line of targets

[orchid nacelle]

voidstrike isn't necessarily reliable as a precision damage mechanism

[summer wind]

yeah guns are better for gun enemies

[orchid nacelle]

not as reliable as a gun anyways

[elfin crystal]

i wish there was gun synergy in the psyker tree bared the base minimum

[simple junco]

Out of all this I'm surprised you haven't brought up the fact we don't get a WC charge on a FS alt kill.

[valid marsh]

I FORGOT ABOUT THAT

[simple junco]

Quick, write it down

[valid marsh]

I am INJECTING MY SWORD INTO THEM

GIVE ME MY POINTS

[orchid nacelle]

there's a psyker class in Tales of Maj'Eyal that uses its psychic powers to manipulate and enhance its gun

[orchid nacelle]

they can redirect their bullets midair and stuff, it's great

[valid marsh]

[candid mesa]

https://clips.twitch.tv/HelpfulWildCamelDatBoi-Ax35Ex9g7JIIXsI1

[simple junco]

Autoaim ult for psykers would actually be great

[finite gazelle]

I honestly just run ps on my vet and have pretty insane infinite horde clear, sure it isn't ranged but grenades and being able to significantly outdps on single target is worth it

[valid marsh]

this is exactly, exactly what I want

[summer wind]

i'm starting to think psyker players don't play psyker

[simple junco]

Just shoot up and it hits elites

[orchid nacelle]

https://te4.org/wiki/Psyshot

ftr tales of maj'eyal is a grid based strategy roguelike game

[finite gazelle]

Only thing that pysker really has is surge. And it now gives you migraines.

[orchid nacelle]

if you like that genre

[elfin crystal]

oh hey, not optimized stats, but still yoink

[valid marsh]

Trauma staff should have two modes I think

[simple junco]

I love how everyone says this about every staff

[valid marsh]

A mini Psykinetics wrath and a gravitational crush smite

[finite gazelle]

Most people are dumb, void is fun and nice on lower diffs, but your throwing if you bring it to t5

[valid marsh]

it would be extremely nice to have a force shotgun in place of the standard shot that trauma staff gets

[finite gazelle]

Purge is nice but surge is just better

[valid marsh]

Trauma should also force enemies to the ground instead of scattering them everywhere

[candid mesa]

eh, debatable I love how purgatus plays more

[pulsar dagger]

did it get hotfixed yet

unironically

[simple junco]

Void falls off the less oneshot potential there is, but Purge, Surge, and Trauma all have their uses in tiers 4-5

[valid marsh]

would make it a lot better for my team

[pine topaz]

@elfin crystal awesome 380 roll

[valid marsh]

to knock enemies to the ground instead of throwing them

[finite gazelle]

To be fair i've seen like one trauma in t5

[orchid nacelle]

purgatus is a nice infinite ammo damage over time solution to most problems

[elfin crystal]

Trauma has always been nice, it just doesn't hold your hand as much as the others

[finite gazelle]

The guy was mainly peril axing also

[elfin crystal]

yeah! might try sword

[orchid nacelle]

any form of damage over time is great with the insanely thicc health pools that high difficulty enemies have

[simple junco]

Exactly

[orchid nacelle]

helps soften them up nicely

[valid marsh]

It is my personal belief that overtuning is better than releasing a weak class

[teal cargo]

yea purg infinite ammo is nice

[pine topaz]

Purgatus = horde clearer, builds warp charges very fast, spam ultimate

[simple junco]

That ult is SO good if used with max stacks

[valid marsh]

six warp charge ascendant blaze

[elfin crystal]

in beta i used to just spam it at my feet while dodging backward and it would be pretty good at just nuking ccing most stuff

[pine topaz]

Surge = stunner, animation cancel trick.... uh..... stunner....

[valid marsh]

Only its so hard to GET THOSE STACKS

[simple junco]

Oh, it's also a stunner

[valid marsh]

BECAUSE YOU ONLY GET THEM FROM BRIANBURST

[teal cargo]

cant animation cancel it anymore

[pine topaz]

OOOOF

Purgatus with the run'n'gun perk you can throw yourself at gunners and stun them

purgatus is kiiiiiiing

[vital bough]

It's really not, you can get them from Psychic Communion and Ascending Blaze as alternative Warp Charge sources.

[simple junco]

In the start of a fight, I'd agree. After 10 seconds of combat you're pretty much set

[finite gazelle]

I never bothered using bb for stacks when I ran psyker. Just from the passives

[summer wind]

purge staff would like to have a word with you

i never brain burst ever and i'm always at 6 lol

[finite gazelle]

I didn't use ascendant blaze I prefered quicken

[simple junco]

tbh I'm running combat knife and I just charge into them at mach 4

[warm delta]

purgatus + ascendant blaze + horde = instant 6 stacks

[valid marsh]

i AM NOT SO LUCKY

[vital bough]

I think you have caps lock on btw

[valid marsh]

By the time I have those six stacks the horde is usually dead

[pine topaz]

purgatus + horde in general is 6 stats 🙂 you just have to scream at people not to throw grenades

[valid marsh]

Yes I do thank you for the help

[summer wind]

yeah you killed the horde

good job

[valid marsh]

Thne what were the stacks for

[orchid nacelle]

how to troll:
ascendant blaze gives warp charges when you kill an enemy with soulblaze / purgatus staff inflicts soulblaze / kill enemies with purgatus staff / free warp charges

[summer wind]

killing the horde

you did it

congrats

[valid marsh]

but I didi t without them

[summer wind]

if the horde is dead and you are alive, you're good

you tick up as the horde goes on

[pine topaz]

tbh, anything below heresy i rather run surge staff

it's quicker

[summer wind]

think about it this way, the longer a fight is the stronger psyker becomes

[simple junco]

true

[summer wind]

especially a flame psyker

making them fantastic for clutching

[simple junco]

Below T4, any staff is viable

[summer wind]

psyker is highly reliable

[pine topaz]

^

[orchid nacelle]

yeah psykers never have downtime really

[pine topaz]

^^

[orchid nacelle]

this entire channel is just dedicated to coping

[vital bough]

If this is your opinion on Warp Battery at 6 stacks, try Kinetic Overload for stacking 4 Soulblaze at a time for every stack past 4.

[pine topaz]

heresy with the ton of horde i love the purgatus... surge really starts making you sweaty

[finite gazelle]

lol true

[orchid nacelle]

and i'm glad to be here

[simple junco]

tbh the best clutch class is probably zealot, but Psyker is a close second

[summer wind]

i gotta disagree

psyker is insane

.. actually zealot's nades

it's a close tie for me

[simple junco]

I dunno man, eviscerator and stun nades

[finite gazelle]

Psyker it still my favourite class and one I will always play to some degree, but after switching to vet its just insane how much more work you can do if you can aim

[summer wind]

eviscerator doesn't do much for me

maybe i'm using it wrong

[primal aurora]

Any particular tricks to it? I find Void staff more consistent vs hordes

[orchid nacelle]

the zealot meme bleed build is more or less unkillable on t5

it's kind of silly

[elfin crystal]

psyker is really good when fully built, but struggles at low lvl

[summer wind]

for sure

psyker needs a build and to be played right

[leaden pier]

yep

[summer wind]

but has high potential

[simple junco]

It takes like 20 hours to get psyker usable

[summer wind]

zealot at the start is more or less zealot at the end

[elfin crystal]

get 2 psykers and you can basically babysit anyone in heresy damnation

[hot tulip]

30 talents should’ve been at 10-15 trust imo

[summer wind]

psyker at the start is a different class completely

[simple junco]

psyker at the start is either diet zealot or diet veteran

[finite gazelle]

psyker is a meme until like level 15-20, then it starts to come together

[orchid nacelle]

psyker is designed to make you extremely neurotic

like a psyker

[simple junco]

I wonder what music is canon for a psyker

[orchid nacelle]

nightsider

[vital bough]

Psyker really is nice when you start to min max with high level staffs (or guns if you're just that guy), high level melee's, and get good perks and blessings.

Low levels feels like you're slowly chugging along with shitty, low charge rate, high casting cost, low damage staffs.

[orchid nacelle]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0knTPWFC2A

it's the class trailer theme

[vital bough]

I feel like this is what the Maelstrom from Cyberpunk 2077 listen to

[simple junco]

I really don't like how they introduced the class at low levels, I almost quit the class because of the poor peril reduction

[orchid nacelle]

try to sync brain burst up with the beat

for the real trailer experience

[warm delta]

at low level just bb all the way, bb still viable while <= t3

[full egret]

makr 2 or 5 dueling sword?

[simple junco]

Combat knife

[cyan notch]

@ everyone any professional demonhost tankers wanna help me do malleus

[full egret]

okay, but between the dueling swords

[vital bough]

Yeah. It's almost better to do gun psyker at lower levels just cause staffs feel really bad with low warp resist (casting cost), low charge time, and staffs like trauma and void really need 'blast radius' while purg needs 'cloud radius' to really hit the most targets at once.

[mental rock]

mk 5 duelling all the way

[full egret]

thank you sibling, good enough for me

[simple junco]

I wonder if this is where gun psykers come from

[vital bough]

Well, at level 30 there's still a good reason, in some regard, to do gun psyker.

If you're running Force Sword and spamming the alt-charge, you can swap to the gun to still do damage while you passively cool your peril down.

I'd still rather get a staff with Warp Nexus and be able to balance my peril at 100% so I can get huge crits with the force sword, though.

[simple junco]

So the entire point of gun psyker is to use your FS?

[vital bough]

For some, not everybody

[simple junco]

ah gotcha

[vital bough]

some people literally use it just to killer gunners elites and gunner squads

[long osprey]

Do the wrack and ruin perk works?

[vital bough]

some for passive cool while they use the gun

[vital bough]

It's bad, in my opinion. Use it if you like it though

3m just doesn't feel like a lot

[long osprey]

I tried it and a lot of the time it doesn’t seem to trigger

[vital bough]

and you have to proc a BB and kill somebody
