Can someone show me the 3 Penance helmets? Thanks β€οΈ
Why do you need to tank it
Love those glasses lol
gotta block 900 damage in 10 seconds
ah
I bet that's the 3rd, right?
where gun tho
correct
no gun for you
DON'T! YOU HAVE REASONS TO LIVE
weight reduction
The warp stole it
using deflector just makes it harder
Just left the handle and bullets. 
Yo you got early access to the psy revolver
That would explain why the warp took it. They're improving it.
not sure but i think these are the first 2
Thanks a lot my friend β€οΈ
Guess my colourblindness is kicking in, what's the colour difference because I can't see it
One just looks darker
The bottom one has some tiny mark details and the top one is just flat
there is fancy texture on the pick and mix ones, and another icon on the leg thingy
The other pants have a pattern on them and a different icon on the thigh plate
Ah
such edition much programing
what would be blessings on force sword? deflector and?
Did you see the Zealot pants. they literally had to hotfix them
What the gun doin
One was, slightly more shiny than the other.
Yes because they were literally the same
Deflector yes
and second blessing? any recommendations?
slaughterer is a good second blessing
I think the one that increases the damage based on peril is decent?
I dunno, I just got that one yesterday and it seems kinda good.
In a way the.. soulburn? One is good if its level 5
u mean the blazing spirit?
Yeah, maybe
The 1-4 soulburn max 12
On critical
I haven't seen that on a FS yet π¦
I have
The lowest form
Blazing Spirit
Enemy gains +2-4 Stacks of Soulblaze on Critical Hit.
blazing spirit is awful
Same
With special its pretty nice dot on single target
I love the soulblaze
other than that... precognition?
Precog
you are using FS, things you hit should be dying
the dot could only possibly have some marginal utility if you also use 6-2 and want stacks but even then it's only 10%
im just gonna wait for the shop reroll then go to bed
Not all singletarget enemies die to few special attack
how does unstable power work exactly?
if nyou got 20% peril u get 20% of the buff or what?
No
thats why im asking... if it would be like "the power increase * current peril" it would be horrible if it would be multiplied for each x peril (as in 1 stack per 5% for example) it could be pretty good
I personally prefer Shred and Slaughterer for FS
Yeah a stack per peril would be nice π₯²
good/bad?
Dont like shred
nbad
not even per peril but something like per each x amount of peril...
good, upgrade and pray for 'transfer peril' blessing
whats transfer peril
but how does warp nexus work then?
How do you think? You prob already know lol
transfer peril S tier
@brisk pantherthats op af
when do you get the +chance on crit and when does the next stack apply?
yep its close to god roll. dont even need the warp resist since i get from like 50%-0% on a single ball. tbh want higher peril so i can transfer to toughness more often π
forgot the % sections each stack applies at π₯²
Use the feat to gain toughness on a Warp Force attack instead
would be nice to have some of these numbers...
nice, gonna try that
It's insane how much toughness it regens when you get a nice headheight voidstrike ball on a horde
Eh, even if you did know the number managing your peril for Nexus would just drop you more dps
can imagine, wanna try it asap π
true but it can influence gameplay either way and make planning the build better
You can do that anyway without knowing specific number since you're always going to treat it as a passive buff π
Maybe if its crit % increase was higher forcing it in certain circumstances would be useful
thats what i mean...
Oh side note, it applies to your melee
What's the blue number next to a damage value when you inspect a weapon for attack breakdowns
these are the staves I have chillin right now
oh thats another thing i thought about... blessings that dont explicitely state that they only apply on a certain weap apply on all right?
stagger
So if you wanted to maintain a high passive crit increase, FS with shred and using deflector is one way
MOST only apply to the weapon they bless, very few leak over
aw damn
And of the few that leak over most aren't useful either lol
But there are some very build defining ones also
i feel like force sword is worse than bleed dagger unless you have deflector
Deflector is just a crutch imo
nah fs can 1 shot elites that arent ogryn
And you leave my bleed dagger out of this π¦
Fucking stupid grief blessing lol
I finally get a good dagger
this stupid surge staff having a stamina perk wtf lol
@grave bobcat do you know if crucion roulette carries over?
π₯²
feel like for voidstrike the ideal blessings are transfer and surge
hey guys new update! is the changelog up?
if you have surge you might want warp nexus though
250 MB update seems like some small bugfixes to me mainly
also still same version so i dunno
alrdy reading them
Risk of seizures down
reverted surge vfx
Rejects! Here are the patch notes for Hotfix 1.0.21 released moments ago on Steam and Microsoft Store, including a revert of the VFX for the Forcestaff. Hotfix 1.0.21 Stability & Performance Added AMD Raytracing support in the launcher settings. The launcher should now auto-detect high-performance GPUs on laptops by default. Added connection...
going to test bb, can't believe they wouldn't fix that
never even got to see how bad it was
It wasn't TOO bad
as expected mainly (crash)fixes
But like on Damnation me taking like an extra 3 seconds to kill something important
Can be a problem
havent gotten the update yet so I popped in the meat grinder to see it
its not all that bad, but I'm not photosensitive
Hopefully Fatshark will learn from this that their playerbase isn't in a well-lit studio, but in a dark lightless basement
I may just swap to void for a bit, just now seeing the fact it passes through enemies
lol u didnt know that?
hadnt seen it for myself
what you think im gonna take the word of strangers on the internet at face value?
guess u didnt try it when levelling
And feels especially reasonable on here considering the amount of random facts thrown arouhnd
Void is fun. But past malice I see it as a little redundant.
STRAIT FAX
Best 5th feat ?
Preference between the 2nd and 3rd
#itdepends
If push did something you couldn't do otherwise then 2 might be decent but it doesn't and it's a waste of warp charges
3rd seems cool
Eh?
Kinetic flayer is a pretty reliable way to get the ball rolling on warp charges. That 15 sec cooldown is kind of "eh" though.
That's.......leave me alone
;-;
I use flayer cause I never have to maintain my BB that way
I'm an ogryn main and I've been running into more skilled surge staff user lately. When you guys are on your game you're the real mvp.
Wait.. there is no Peril bug fix in the notes? 0_0
Thank you!
Can't wait to find what they broke with psyker this hotfix
If you ever see them Surge staff normal horde enemies they're bad
lmao
I don't like warp battery because I genuinely don't think the +6% damage is worth an entire feat slot. Nor do I think the 12% warp resistance has any real practical effect.
Kinetic Shield or Kinetic Deflection (T4 Feat) ?
I'm was for warp battery and I nearly had it till I forgot where my grenade button was for no reason and lost it with 30 seconds to go
deflection
Pain
Alrighty then
Cause AB is only useful if you're using Warp batt
Going full melee Psyker, then
deflection is genuinely op
Welcome
Right. I'm seeing less of that lately and more actual clutch usage. Very nice.
vfx for surge staff fixed
I wish I could say the same
umm...
I'm still convinced force sword used to have deflector by default before they realized how good it was and made it a blessing
Deflection is generally better but requires you to be active. Shield is nice to have and you can for the most part ignore it.
to amend my previous statement: I will swap to void when I have an upgraded one with the blessings I want
i don't think surge on normal hordes are neccessarily bad, it makes room for your teammates and lets you stand back and watch for specials
I think radius is the most important
It is bad.
If it had 80 burn and radius I'd say yes. But no
need more radius, damage is worthless on purg
ye ik...
What do you preffer for hordes? Purg?
Surge max targets 6 enemies and it's a pretty small horde if you only got 6~ running at you lol
but at least it got the blessing i wanted to test
Its good
Surge is okay to use on hordes just be super aware of when it's time to drop it and pull out the melee weapon, because it's really easy to forget yourself
I build entirely around special killing most of the time, so I just consider any melee fine for horde
purg is so good for hordes, just chill in the doorway at the end of espionage and melt everything on the bridge
@grave bobcat okay you can think that, idk what difficulty missions you usually tho but i would not say it's bad
thats my current one
lol thats more like it, rip run n gun tho
I just like surge psykers cause it feels like a niche that no other class can encroach on. Really feel it.
And what is your build i like purg and surge the same but i didnt try void
if you tell me how to change them i will gladly do that... stats from my current with warp flurry
Worth snatching ?
Going to try purg combat blade today I think
I don't like Purge, and when I am using Surge I just pair it with Force Sword or Dagger
Who's selling it
I don't usually play Purgatus
If it's melk, no
nope you need aoe aka cloud radius
Surge feels great to keep ur buddys alive from all the elites to rip them to pieces
I'm coming around to antax mk5. That shit 2 normal shots maulers and shit and 1 shots gunners and it has that absurd push attack. It only has one downside, it can't get deflector π’
Armory
shop reroll wasnt worth staying up for
Myeah, I'll stick to my rifle for now
!!!
Dogs mutants etc etc all still for ur sharpshooter to pot shot them
But i do pref purg for everything else at the moment
purg very satisfying
Regardless of difficulty Surge doesn't have enough AoE to be good vs horde let alone it does 0.25x damage to those enemies
Maybe with the ult u can compensate a bit
@grave bobcat thats not the point, doing dmg to a horde is not important as psyker at all, ofcourse i just melee a horde to death if there's no other pressure
Hordes get the swords.
i burn hordes...
Works too, I guess
As do i
it can be important to psyker, depends on your staff
all build/intention dependant
Reverted Forcestaff VFX to an earlier version. ~patchnotes...
Also what do you think about the talent that reduces cd on ults if you or your guys kill elites? I think is really REALLY solid on purge
I make zealots cry with my fire build. They all whine about not having hordes to charge into
You stopping 6 enemies.... in a horde of 75+ might as well be trying to use your hands to shovel water from a sinking boat
most people go for communion instead (I think its in that tier)
Wish it didn't sacrifice passive warp charge though
Dw guys! These 6 dudes right here!?! I GOT THEM
free warp charges just from playing the game, no bb necessary
as a purg main, yes even with purg
90% of the time, those 6 dudes are the ones tanky enough to survive your ally's flamer. So you cover their weakness instead of just stacking unnecessary clear.
Im spaming 2 ults fully charged on hordes
Talking about horde enemies specifically π
Like always
In higher levels, horde enemies CAN be tanky
π
We're playing a different game I think
the issues with that feat are:
elites specifically, situational is not something to ride by
your ult cooldown is already short
veteran ult is always up, zealot and ogryn ults are situational
Praise be witch-kin, the fixed the friggin vfx
I'm gonna miss my self inflicted seizures
ey that's my line
communion doesnt sound great on paper with only a 4% chance but remember you're killing thousands of enemies, and it procs on your kills AND ally kills so its gonna happen, it happens all the time. Also synergizes with ascendant blaze's 10% and I see my warp charges jump back to max immediately after ulting every time
Have they fixed the quell thing
finally, i can play without experiencing peril in real life
I gotta dip for a bit smadge
Aw why revert, cudve just made the blur like 10% of what it originally was, gr8 tho
But we thank you Warden
Indeed but on higher difs elites are everywere and like i said with purge hitting like 30 poxwalkers i dont need 4% more charges but maybe im wrong
Spaming ur ult feels amazing tho
"Removed player outlines as they werenβt functioning as intended. They will make a return in the future."
yea
I think they may revisit it, probably just took the easy route with the holidays off
Genuine pain......
its a matter of having the charges to make the ult useful rather than having an empty ult thats always up
The buffs of warp charges are small, but they stack up nicely...
For sure
Like i said is full of charges by the time i get it back
Would like them to be a bit more impactful. But they aren't bad per se
Sure!
first 380 thank you gun shop man very cool keep it up
the team doesnt need cooldown help, your coherency already gives it, vets is infinite, ogryn and zealots dont need it that often
just too expensive to change over a skill fatshark just had to make us pay for it π€ͺ
only took them a solid week to revert that change
Luckily I was immune. So I could show all my associates the beauties of the warp in all it's vengeful glory
Tzeentch be praised!

Yeah you seem to be right as all the people seem to think 4% is better
Ill have to try it more too
Is quell fixed?
It's useful for some penances... Had an Ogryn beg me to take it for em. But yeah, pretty lame outside of that
yeah ogryn has to charge 40m in one go or some such and needs a cd reset to pull it off or so I hear
but thats a one and done
the hell did i just roll
40m in sub 20 sec
the double charge range feat doesnt do it huh?
just a little bit too short
thats just mean lol
not bad... now the dmg over to quell speed and i would do near everything to get it
"hey there ogryn, take this feat and bring a psyker with this specific feat and some cooldown curios or no new pants for you"
penances are fuckin wild
i mean... at least its not part of the Bone 'ead(2) so i guess u dont need it for the helmet xD
Penances expect you to commit suicide... 'nuff said
They are there to give trolls a reason to get away with doing dumb shit
"oh I was just doing a penance"
der codex astartes is ein bunch of bullscheisse
reminds me of the time I was playing diablo 3 and found legendary pants under a log... was fuckin hilarious
anyway its bed time cya tomorrow siblings
anyway im gonna hop off have fun guys
so uuh, still haven't seen the comms-plex, is it an issue with the mission terminal being shitty as usual or is it just resting in the void next to the thunder hammer buff?
Wait, does Kinetic Flayer only work with melee attacks, or all attacks ?
Wait, really ?
Oh.
Make sense
Otherwise having 10% chance of BB on a Purge tick would be insane.
It's still very funny to push someone away and the BB procs
If both stats are between 0 and 100, shouldn't Quell Speed be +77% not +62.6%?
It doesn't seem to be linear, though I haven't actually made an effort to check. I imagine it becomes more valuable the closer the roll is to 100
So if the highest potential is +100 Quell Speed, but it's not linear, what does 100% Quell Speed equal? Wouldn't you need a stat of 120% or 150% to reach the actual maximum then?
a 100% roll for quell speed I would imagine gives you the maximum value of 100% - it's just that the curve isn't a straight line. The closer the roll to 100%, the more each % on the roll is worth, if that makes sense
That's one hell of a bloody nose you just game him
Oh it's a curve?
no even if its not linear its possible to reach 100% with 100 quell
That's the impression I've gotten looking at various stats on different weapons, yeah
It kinda makes sense, if they intend to add weapons with stats over 80 somehow in the future - the really high rolls would be extra valuable, to make them a more impactful decision
Maybe fatshark had a bone 'ead do their math calcs
American Maths
Weapons didn't even have number stats at the start. They only added then after we complained in the beta
Well the earlier betas
I know, I've played since closed beta.
I just didn't notice until now that the stats aren't linear
Yeah I don't think they whipped up that whole UI that fast. Fatshark takes ages to implement anything. Was probably already in the works, just not ready.
I can't even handle this community sometimes. Checked out the news post of the much needed VFX staff effect removal. Completely reversed. And the nitpicky whiners are all like 'Oh well that sucks, why can't there be a toggle' and 'I wish they coulda kept the lightning but removed the blur'. Their forums are a mess of bad takes and opinions and it's a miracle that taking feedback hasn't completely destroyed their games in the past.
Fair enough
Man I wish they added an attack breakdown to vermintide like they did this go around so I didn't need the weapon library mod
Also I hate how push attacks are missing from the breakdown lmao
They gain vitality from your suffering
none of these has deflector, trying to get the blessing on a good stat FS, the grind is real
I'm leveling psyker and my staff is 100 rating below my melee because I just don't see them in the shop lmao. How do you guys live like this? We ogryns only have like 14 weapons total so the shop is way more palatable.
tbf deflector is pretty underwhelming unless its a specific clutch sittuation
I log onto psyker once to check the store, get disappointed, switch characters to zealot and play that 
and then when my zealot weeklies are done i play psyker until those weeklies are done
i just want it on a good stat wep, already got dps force swords
that diamintine grind drives me crazy
have u tried deflector with 56% block eff?
i just dont like using deflector while walking up to them and kill :/
its good when ur overwhelmed by gunfire tho
slide and block
yeah like a crab lol
π ooooeeee
underwhelming because i thought i would be using it more often
3% π
heresy?
it will be when zealot shit talks it
Wait what the fuck did the hotfix not include a fix for the quell bug?
Praise the omnisiah the Emperor has protected.
rip they really hate psykers also along with the datamine psssykers take double damg to toughness with sprinting
just played a mission in the new 5v5 mode, pretty cool
What about veteran?
Some people said itβs undocumented but fixed
Hype vfx fix
Oh really?
its 25% more iirc
Checking
I've seen 1.25 modifier before, no idea where that other figure came from
it certainly can't be correct
oh wow, crashed in a middle of the game, got out, had a update, and restart, now I can't reconnect back to the game, saying some striketeam had a different version bullshit
Yay surge staff is usable again! Boo they didnβt also roll back FS VFX.
Do your brain burst hands provide the maximum movement speed or does holding a knife somehow make you faster?
oh god bless i was wrong and they actually fixed surge at least before leaving for christmas.
its datamined
Quell bug is fixed thank fuck
Yes, I see 1.25 there
that's not double or triple as some people have been saying
unless they are comparing to zealots
which is why I corrected the previous instance of someone saying double
all i got when i saw that was that it now made sense why my zealot never got hit while sliding
they fixed the quell bug? not listed in the patch notes
they did
people get way too hysterical about that shit, it was a pretty safe assumption that theyd drop another hotfix this week
Our office closes at 23rd itβs very possible lmao
also since nobody posted it https://forums.fatsharkgames.com/t/hotfix-1-0-21/70519

its not exactly a leap in logic to presume fatshark is going to miss a deadline
Donβt know about swedish work culture though
hopefully something approaching healthy
theyve put out a patch or hotfix at least every week since release, this joke about "lol fartshark" is getting tired
as much as I want crafting I dont want another human going through burnout this time of year to get there
thats the sensible take
it likely isnt the individual dev's fault this game had to release when it did even though it clearly lacked a bunch of stuff
it probably needs 6 months from release to get to where it wanted to be for launch day
Im pretty sure sure that mechanically crafting is completely finished. It's not like there is some challenge to making a random die roll against a relatively small table of possibilities. They are holding back crafting because they are trying to gather metrics to make sure that crafting doesn't make gear progression too easy.
but the team are working incredibly hard to get things done and avoid crunch
if youre unhappy with the current game go leave a negative review on steam or something and just wait instead of bitching about it incessantly while still playing the gme for some reason
Like the difference between refine and rebless is just costs and a different table of possibilities. There is no special game design they have to figure out.
crafting likely has been canned and revamped literal months before release so the current fucked up state of it makes sense in a way, stuff like refining cost going to zero when clearly the UX isnt built around it with a voice line and sound effect every reroll etc
pog? you guys accidentally got fixed?
I'm assuming this is exactly why there are garbage curio perks like +Exp%. They started with some math and kept filling the slots up until they had as many perks as they needed. To make it harder to roll good curios.
christ we really are at the mercy of the warp
Surge VFX revered, Quelling delay has been removed
"accidentally", its been known and raised to the dev team on the day of release, it just likely didnt make it into the patch notes because its close to christmas and documentation and the scamble to put it all into a post likely dropped things here and there
cool so we are back to where we were 2 weeks ago
whether we like it or not, its a step in the right direction
hopefully in the new year we will see some of the changes we desire
Why do you think we all have hoods? Its to hide the tears
they likely are already somewhat crunching to fix as much as possible before christmas, so not everything gets documented well
yep
By the by, Geforce Now to check the shop on your phone all day is pretty awesome
Sorry If i am late to the party but what was this quell bug?
people forget that CM's arent the people making all the fixes, so they gotta go ask around/rely on documentation by devs, and when theyre working hard and so close to christmas (extra stress, holiday readiness and general "im fuckin done"), its likely harder
check pins
julia wrote about it
Thanks
sorry it was qp
No rollback for Force Sword block VFX π¦
yea its still sparky
or do you mean staff
force sword block animation
Because I can't see anything in front of my when I block.
it was
well a lot of people noticed
I sure didnt lmao
its very obvious to force sword users
instead of just that greenish forcefield when blocking theres now sparks and shit
I mean I dont block much with FS and if I do I dont tend to hold it up forever because I go back to attacking so shrug
They added the electric warp animation which made it way harder to see what's behind your hand.
this is pretty good right?
thats sublime lmao
379 modifiers mmmm i hate you
I would prefer terrifying barrage but that is indeed a nice roll
lmao yh i know the modifiers are high but are they distributed optimally or nah?
that is a good staff
Even while its broken shame you got lowest roll on Warp Flurry
Iβm not sure who thought this was a good idea but the new foggy distortion effect on the Surge staff literally hurts my eyes after repeated use. It actually makes me feel sick. Please keep the blue glow on the targets but remove the foggy distortion! Vid Link to see its full horror: https://streamable.com/a6ty0v
yeah but hopefully can change that with full crafting system
This but yeah, once full crafting comes i you shouldbe able to level up blessings so keep it
no we are talking about something else
I didn't say delete it?
ahhh gotcha
lol what why do some classes take more dmg π
force sword blocking vfx
Oh sorry i thought you were op, my bad
finally got a deflector fsword and they made it harder to use smhhhh
https://i.ibb.co/F3q5w1g/Untitled.jpg this is how it looks now, at best I could say that the little lightning shit is new, which I honestly didnt even notice
Hitting 100 peril twice in a row prevents you from quelling for like 2s
goddamn shop really wants me to use guns.... Every single item -2 curios is a gun lmfao
this is so fuckin minor and changes next to nothing about not being able to see anyway so uh
mkv duelling sword is best by far anyway
yes its the lightning shit
I wasnt even aware people had an issue with it
well now you do
and one week before christmas I spent a lot of time in this dumb channel 
I have only used FS for like the last 100 hours of psyker play, do I classify
Theres lotsa FS enjoyers
most psykers I see use it so yeah I would confirm that
cos deflector
anecdotally
They stealth fixed the quell bug that was stealth broken, and reverted the Surge Staff VFX. We can pretend we got buffs now for Christmas guys! π
but the mobility you get from duelling swords makes them more defensive than deflector imo
does this look ok to you
and what is duelling sword good at
its pretty obvious when u compare before and after
what is KD
slapping shit like a wet noodle
venting
and uh
lmao the dodge is so good on it that you dont even need to block anyway
for daemonhost most of the time
real
Looks decent, check if mobility reduces your dodge count.
DS got good blocks and long dodges
ngl I prefer the second actually
Kinetic deflection, feat where blocking gives you peril instead of consuming stam
nah thats a lie, cant dodge a daemonhost, it just teleport on your face, but you can bully the assassination's boss without getting a single hit with his slowfk hammer
up to u
ooh
to be fair it's generally better to block it in place ideally even if you can dodge every attack, makes it way easier on everyone else to actually kill it
learning alot here
Connor/Arya which DS do you use
its not, i can do it - easily. just need to know how it interacts with the scenery. using walls and drops etc mean you can infinite, and dodge timings are made easier by the DS insane dodges
it feels really good to horde clear yeah
whats the best dueling sword variant for horde?
Dodge left and right
I'll give the DS another chance but I swear every time I use these things it feels awful
and don dodge backwards
Which DS do you use
5
K both of you use 5
I spent like 4 minutes kiting demonhost with FS once so you can absolutely dodge it lol
oh, dodge left and right without blocking and not get hit? honestly I am still not believing it
So I'll try 5
Well hold block ofc in case you do get hit π
aw, surge is fixed, i nevr got to play around with it on a dark map
Holy cow!
the heavy attacks are just too good on 5 to pass up
your eyes will be goners
Yeah... I can pass them up pretty quick lol
it looked fine in regular light, and was waht id expect of a schock effect hitting many mobs
then stop not believing it and go try it lmao
I have a headache yesterday from playing surge
But you should be able to dodhe a lot of the DH attacks
rip your burn
Are we talking about Axes?
But witj enough BCR you can prob just facetank
i dont think so
burn is dogwater anyway atm
I actually managed to get a mk5 380 ds yesterday. haven't crafted it up yet though
DS I think has a very low peril gain from blocking
I might, if I accidently activate a daemonhost that is, not like it's really goign to happen
Everyone rolling 380s making me jelous
oh dueling sword
Well of somebody activates and they die and it aggros to you
Wish I'd roll a fucking 380 dagger
i dont think thats a thing at all
yeah just trust us we are only telling you it because we have done it many times before - just have it as something nice to know if it ever does end up attacking you
Same
You can roll a 380 dagger
Maybe just used to VT2 where the rapiers do have a lot lower block costs
honestly, i can't play Damnation without Deflector
at least u didnt get this
Or you can get a dagger with lacerate
yeah, fair
are we generally accepting that 380 is the max roll or can it go to 400?
That's actually a good rifle
380 is max
ah ok
for now
could be covered under the defences bar on them, it mentions stamina efficiency in the description even though it's not listed on the numbers. idk though
The problem is we have Recon Lasguns
Off topic but hey, a Marcus fan.
I mixed up a bit and am current rolling void and FS, I still swap to my dagger when I go to surge though. Now that the FX are fixed I can prob use it again without getting sick.
so on my staff it says 379 but the rolls add up to 380 - does that mean one of the stats is lying or the overall stat is lying?
haha hell yeah. fallout 2 in general as well.
Prob rounding
The numbers are rounded up on the stat summary
I found out I love the Chainsword a lot
If you inspect and look at the breakdown it's more accurate
ohh ok
80% doesn't really mean 80%
Just fun to use
Sometimes it can be 79.2 lmao
1 point doesnt really matter anyways
I really want to play with an eviscerator, but dont want to play a zealot.
Does for Burn on Purgatus
It just looks like fun 2x
i hate the eviscerator with a passion
Yes I go super zoom on zealot with a knife, but I prefer psykers kit
That's the only one
Maybe when I eventually get bored of Psyker
CS is fun!
we need a chainsword variant now with a push attack similar to antax 
Play all 4 like me so you suffer 4 times more
Oh whats it do for purg?
I dislike the Antax alot anyways lol
15 vs 16 stacks of burn
it does tho
I can wait π₯²
I mean the claims that it has some kind of built in block efficiency.
i mean nothing states that it does
People suspect it does. Probably have to go dig up the code and look for it
There's some interesting numbers there
y'know it might be really funny that bleed does dps faster than this DS heavy swings lmao
yeah I have no idea, was just speculating that if other people experience that, that it could be the defence stat doing it and it just doesn't say
Like how Zealots have better I frames when sliding
not a fan of DS tbh
Same but, giving it another chance
I'm only a fan of IV.
Finding the right variant makes all the difference.
defences is just a name that covers those modifiers above
Like the Hellbore Lasgun
doesnt actually mean blocking defence
fair i only tried one. they're probably different now that i think about it
We're talking about Duel Swords matey lol
push cost is basically defense anyway
Yeah just stating an example.
Duelling*
I'm aware, but it wouldn't be the first time in a video game that some modifier isn't listed. look at the datamined class passive differences. Just speculating like I said, I have no idea it there is a difference.
I asked the 2 DS users what the yuse and both said V so I'll take their experiences for it
But...
and how vets take double dmg while sprinting
It's damage is so weak
Yeah it's preference.
kill elites pretty fast
afaik all weapons have defensive stats like the ones listed on duelling, they just dont roll for them, theyre innate
Mk IV is better for hordes. Spam lights and dance around.
so it stands to reason that there could be some sort of stat for peril block efficiency but I almost doubt it
i dont think it would be specifically peril blocking
Makes sense though. Larger weapons should be better at blocking.
thats just normal blocking converted to peril
Like, not even remotely as fast as combat knife
With their mobility being near identical
but yes all weapons have all stats
archtypes just have their own 5 that can roll a range
Which is why I like the IV. It cleaves on lights unlike the dagger but has good DPS stabs on heavies.
Only thing it has is range
could be that peril block peril generation is affected by stam but who knows
dagger does cleave just short range
Knife do suck vs hordes though
Eh, I'd prefer faster special/elite killing
So the key problem is the multiple layers of RNG
You dont just need a DS
You need a DS Mk 4 with the right blessings and good base stats

welcome to tide games
I don't really care about horde clear π€·
i do
Slow horde clear is rough
yea wastes a lot of time
then specials spawn
add one mutant/sniper within horde instant lose
I dislike FS for that
Meh teammates can do clear horde I've always prioritised nuking specials anyway
having any trashclear at all is pretty mandatory imo
without it youre as helpless as a purg user against gunners
Yea Flamers are soooo good
lmao
sometimes youre a staff psyker alongside a flame zealot where the only ranged we have to deal with gunners is our rippee ogryn
i was unfortunate to be that ogryn in a heresy high intensity mission
Gunners die to 1 BB anyway unless you mean normal shooters
3 our of 4 staves at least have void bolt
purg doesnt
I wish we could sell items to the Techpriest in exchange for Plasteel and Diamantine
and I feel it every time I try it again and then shelve it
just looking at a group of guardsmen out of range of the staff and I cri
sit in cover and flame trash until I get picked up by mommy
that aint no way to live
theres a reason why i use guns on psyker, most recently the recon lasguns
Recon Lasgun is so fun
is the quell peril bug fixed yet?
yes
not perfect, but its beautiful to me
Im rolling a vet and having guns amd tons of toughness is real nice for killing shooters
And their feats actually work for their class lol
Tis your job tbf π
unlike ours
Just Vet is also good at literally everything else
about to ding 30 on my vet, i think as soon as I have that highlight shooters perk itl be real hard to go back to being sparky
yea once PS will be set
we need to get a bolt pistol with a psybolt round weapon special. like shotgun has the single shot weapon special load
I think ill run 75% DR and highlight all shooters cos I hate dreg shooter packs
take like no dmg from surge and feels bad
heal 50% toughness from killing an elite also seems really good
ngl
Wtf that's so good lol
Yea Vet feats actually have good synergy with their role l
In heresy and up, if you have a gun with a fast reload, you are rarely out of you ability. Plus, the ability recharges as soon as you activate the ability, not when the ability ends, so if you managed to keep it up long enough you can just instantly reactivate it as soon as it drops.
If only you saw the shock trooper feats

Main character syndrome......
I wonder if we are going to get an unarmed psyker class or weapon so I can smite heretics with my mighty fist
Shock trooper feats?
vet_3
I use a 378 autogun on my vet and the distance damage feat, You would be surprised how effective I am at mowing down ranged targets (but naturally am trash at killing carapace)
It works on melee kills too which is pretty legit and makes up for poor PS defense
The minion death stuff wasn't sqleader, it's shock trooper or whatever it ends up being named on release
Basically that spec gets a ton of buffs for killing elites
Punch for final insult
Meant to reply to you lol
Punch is so dumb
i just use a helbore
Also all their level 30 skills seem really good
Its like killing something with a fish
carapace go away
honesty wouldn't be surprised vet gets a rebalance down the road
I kinda expect it
vets also regen more toughness per melee kill than other classes lol
Doubt it, vet is 1# most played and makes the most money via cosmetics
Yeah this too -.-
exactly, they got the money already
Steel legion was released prior to krieg to bait krieg fanboys to buy it, krieg prob gonna be a thing later
haven't gone through sharpshooter cosmetics to look for krieg yet
people already paid for the skin
200 iq play on their part lol
Release steel legion: krieg fanboys pay for it
Release actual krieg cosmetics: they pay again
it was definitely done for that yeah. i'm not denying
mobile gaming marketing
Psykers get a buncha cosmetics in "inquisition colors" whatever that means
i mean, to be fair. people who paid for cosmetics right now would pay anyway for krieg if vet would get nerfed
krieg cosmetics wouldnt really make sense with any of the vet personalities
they just don't care
Does steel legion, or the krieg lasgun
i don't think they care about that either
Welp, back to chasing plasteel
if anything we got the helbore and shovel. make of that what you will
That is so dumb
they also know people want krieg since before release
hey, atleast the surge vfx is less painful now
but enjoy ur sedition runs LMAO
I am so glad I finally don't need to do that anymore
2 babies, working on others. sadly can't make a sword with deflector π¦
I don't even use Surge lmao
playbing with 4 vets iona game right now all rocking power swords
And I only play Damn cause I would burnout if I played malice or below
its a fucking joke
I was getting most efficient times w/ combat blade and surge, used surge to stun elites that couldn't be bypassed otherwise
It's just the least fun way
ammo isnt even an issue cause of coherency
Eh I prefer the more fun way than efficient for this game
Surge staff with a solid melee partner = damnation easy mode.
pitty damage sucks
Surge + 3 power sword vets
I do have to say the forums are hilariously frustrating to read
gets patch
WHENS NEXT PATCH
surge + purga is damnation baby sitting mode
How do you guys get good staves? I've been playing Psyker so long and all my staves suck. D:
ye I've been having burnout syndrome w/ dt cuz of grinding for plasteel so much
I donβt have money but i do have gamepass so im working with what i got lol
Start game
Instantly want to close it once it loads into hub
Then again I have like 10 force swords so I guess RNG is just playing me.
Rookie numbers
Which is why I've been trying out all the weapons, builds I can attempt, etc lol
i mean i kinda can understand them even if they are impatient. we are missing a lot of shit
Or else I just can't motivate myself
rng
Try DS MK IV or Combat blade (knife thing)
Very fun
bitching about it every chance you get isnt gonna make it come faster
great change from FS/Antax/Tacax
I'm trying DS again now evben though I dislike it
A bit of RNG, look at the BASE value, check your store, buy a grey or green or blue with a 350+ rating and upgrade it. once you have ONE item high enough rating more come..
Combat blade is one of my favourites though
You're welcome 
It's really funny when an ogryn gets upset when they see me blocking forever w it
Lol
BASE rating mind you. check my jpg
bows
no, but it keeps the issue hot and in front of the eyes of everyone. shutting up about it ain't gonna fix the issue either. and the squeaky wheel gets the oil yada yada. i'd rather people be loud about it
I just play like a Zealot in mage clothes
God, tell me abt it
The combat blade anims
are 11/10
Whoever animated it deserves a bonus
Wish Deflector was not that rare, made over 20 swords, force swords. that is... nada.:(
Just got going out with a bang by accident π
Rookie numbers
The block attack down swing
yeah the combat blade anims are nice
So nice
Or the heavy face stab
show me yours π
im trying for that and maonstronum
I mostly spam the block attack cause it has the easiest cleave/weakspot hit
You have to have a team to do maonstronum unfortunately. Not something you can just do
Not able to get on pc rn, I can later ig. Granted I'm missing quite a few because I just ended up discarding shit blessings later on due to how annoying it got to scroll
Remind me again why we don't have a grid menu
who knows
Howd you get Going out?
The funny way
my bast sword.. sadly it sucks:(
Vets also can get ability refresh for killing normal shooters at level 30...
Or instanrly gain 60% toughness and ability refresh for killing elites
wait lmao. you can do it with vet?
yes
Kinda nuts
plasma gun is a staff
nice
technically
The fuck
wait what???? it works like....WTF!!?!?! going to do that now
they jsut didnt add a check for class
yeah fair enough
Thatβs just funny
Speaking of which, they might've tossed it in today's patch
So who knows
still..
still worth a try
I feel like they have bigger fish to fry lmao
yeah defo
Yeah the salmon for xmas
Thatβs just funny
π
people got the zealot charge mutie peanaance with an ogryn ..soo.. .. it is fat shark?
people constantly complain about crafting not being done, ignoring the fact that literally every hotfix has like 3 entries for crash fixes which are just much higher on the priority chart
Fart shark
Ikr
crafting seems to be done, likely they're holding it back to get rid of fundamental bugs first
however. they have adds, globally.. showing a complete working crafting system....
granted there's also incentive to drip feed content
you mean exploitss...ahhemmm bugs
nah there's none w/ crafting
I mean Idc about no crafting system tbh I just want to kill heretics with my funny lightning staff
I mean I cant expect people to understand gamedev in depth but at this point I would have assumed people knew a bit about it, I guess the average forum and discord poster isnt into the background stuff the same way I am
the code for applying stuff is done on their servers
its a blue curio but ILL TAKE IT
Well: there probably is we just havenβt found them
Peril block time
not possible
rating actually doesnt matter for curios lol
i think 170 is the cap iusnt it
i know.. but it is funny
The fact that curios cost the same to upgrade is.....shiiiiii
now if only i could get a damn DEFELCTOR sword to go with it
also speaking of which has anyone seen a wounds blessing curio with 80 points on it
Obese Fish
Just get a combat blade :)
i wanna know if 80 is the threshold for 2 wounds or not
all honestly.. deflector should be a feat.
there is no 2 wounds
Nah it should be default on swords
If you look through the force sword code, it was originally going to be default

yeah did silo with 4 vets in 23 minutes. All decent players, no one lost more than a single wound at any given point. No one dropped below thje yellow ammo indicator and we all used our guns the majority of the time
granted they might've just done this to test it out
just making sure because i know stam is a 75 threshold for 3 stam, just havent seen a 80 point wounds curio yet so i wsnt sure
im missing something arent i? why the blade as opposed yo the dueling sword
vet needs a nerf lmao
I mean, I do think Force Sword is viable without deflector & block efficiency.
- cool animations
- dmg
- flex on ogryns who use slab shield
but that would be ....tooo goood π 
soulburn is Fairly strong on force sword.
I use the chain sword. 1. Reason itβs the FS but cooler in every way
duelling sword lost the 1 thing that let it be as fun as the knife
theres a blessing force sword can get
bloodthirster i think
that gives
guaranteed crits
if u do a special attack once
wait? they removed the dash on dueling sword?
the dash slide boost yeah
ye
fs
Sock's force sword
psykers cant have fun remember
And when you have guaranteed crits you can do stuff like this:
Do you have to kill something first to make it crit
yes I hate snipers π
Or does it crit IF you can kill it
That's nice but can it 1 tap heavy or 2 tap light groaner and pox walker heads on Damnation?
this actually sounds really fun
Id rather deflector with slaughterer personally tho
Blood thirsty is OP tho
anyone else getting stuck in forcesword blocking?
sould burn from a sword 1 shots a bulwark. dunnno why.. but it does..
oh wait I misread it
I have 1 shot a couple elites as long as I had high peril on damnation lol
special attack kill not special kill
you can qqclick them to death within like 2s
yeah thats really good
oh
u said
pox walker
lol
i was talking abt mutant
poxwalkers die in one hit
w/ that blessing
with bloodthirst and mutant dam you could probably take out most of the games specials with just light special attacks
yup
even crusher gets bullied
all u gotta do is get a special attack kill then you're overpowered mode for 5s*
I feel ya.
do consecutive special kills refresh it
I put 10% dmg to elites on the fs, plus with psykerβs aura that grants an extra 10% dmg to elites
yes lol
kek
Thing is, you need to be consistent...
thats also insane because then
not rlly
you can special into the peril push block and the stagger pool you build guarantees crushers fall to the floor
Being a surge stun psyker just..works... not glorious or anythng
It works as long as your team has damage
well yeah
FS is extremely viable with bloodthirsty but
I haven't gotten a single bloodthirsty blessing on any psyker melee
So rip
ditto
Not gonna do the grind again
Youβll get it one day
When I play surge I happen to get half infested team mates who don't know how to work a trigger
I got it through crafting from a blue weapon lol
I got deflector after like 300hrs of gameplay, some 100hrs of grinding nonstop mats

sooo then I should have 2?
meanwhile im sitting on like 5 9% deflectors
Mean while nearly every staff i make, gets run and gun..
Then at 24th they are going to unlock the stat cap to 100% so you gotta do it all again
