psyker-class

[alpine portal]

does any one know if force sword kenitec barrier blocks for every one? like ogryn does?

[wanton sandal]

nah, need deflector for fs

for ranged i mean

[alpine portal]

what I ment lol

[shut thorn]

human size target on left

[alpine portal]

but yah thats the question

[shut thorn]

wdym every one

neither stops sniper

everything else blocked

[vital bough]

You can stand in front of your team and block bullets for them and act as a shield, yes. But you'll build peril quick.

It's better used for clutch moments to prevent damage or pick friends up.

[alpine portal]

as nice.

• ah nice.

[shut thorn]

To optimally play with a zealot in your team that keeps using chat, you have to get them comfortable to be behind your shield, then when you see the 5x gunner pack you drop down the shield and run away

[vital bough]

Snipers will fuck you tho

[shut thorn]

leaving the zealot behind

[vital bough]

📜 ✍️
I'll be sure to keep that one for later

[shut thorn]

I really like playing with zealots

Just not the toxic ones that are shit

Same goes for ogryns

[viscid cloak]

i have not being able to find a single combat knife THAT DOSEN'T HAVE A DUMP STAT, Knife needs every single of its modifier in harmony to be useful, a dump stat on combat knife is a useless knife!

[alpine portal]

ive been collection block reduction curios for this reason. just realize I did not even know it it would work

[viscid cloak]

FOR THE PAST WEEK

[shut thorn]

Also toxic ogryns tend to start votekicks 24/7, in the middle of a fucking special spam horde

[shut thorn]

rookie numbers

[formal sedge]

I just started as a psyker well I’m lvl 11 it I do t know know what route to go with my build

[shut thorn]

:)

[shut thorn]

psyker is a wet noodle until lvl 30

play whatever is fun

dont focus on ur magic shit until ur lvl 30

[alpine portal]

as a psyker main I felt that, and it hurt.

[shut thorn]

network beta psyker atleast had a shotgun

:/

[viscid cloak]

i would kill for a shotgun psyker

[formal sedge]

Understood 🫡

[viscid cloak]

i seem to find clusters of gunners just waiting to get blasted

[formal sedge]

Same

[burnt python]

are plasma shotguns a thing in 40k

[shut thorn]

if you want the 'safe meta' for leveling psyker, get an antax mk v and voidstrike, it's dull but it'll get you used to psyker playstyle

[lyric hatch]

@burnt python yeah but we just call em bombs

[alpine portal]

im pretty sure they are just the plasma gun, its has a gloopy range. if I remember corectly in the meta ( some one who paints minis correct me )

[formal sedge]

Mmm ok appreciate the knowledge

[lyric hatch]

@formal sedge nah get a FS

[alpine portal]

Force swords are cool, but that passive peral cool down is insane on non force weapons

[lyric hatch]

@alpine portal thats what the staff is for

[grizzled nexus]

then use a gun with fs

[alpine portal]

in all ways be purging friend. always

quelling peril means heretics are escaping.

[formal sedge]

That’s deep

[grave bobcat]

Meanms you're killing people with void 🙂

[shut thorn]

Why would he use a FS at lvl 11

What does he gain from using one

[alpine portal]

its why zelots never switch weapons.

[grave bobcat]

A force sword

[lyric hatch]

@shut thorn respect and knowledge

[alpine portal]

lol

[shut thorn]

......?

[subtle linden]

The true gigachad way to play psyker is run +wounds on everything and repeatedly perils of warp explosion

[shut thorn]

So you want him to basically die a bunch from FS' clunky horde clear

[ancient ivy]

Penance gaming right here

[subtle linden]

[shut thorn]

With subpar gear

[alpine portal]

Ive herd rumors of +2 wound curios. if I can get three, im gonna do a whole run like this

[grave bobcat]

I hate how much fun that sounds

[lyric hatch]

@shut thorn with a name like yours you'd think you would know what we use for hoard clear

[ancient ivy]

I think they were bugged and still only gave 1 wound, and then were removed for launch

[shut thorn]

Please explain to me how you expect a level 11, with gear that doesn't go above 230 rating to deal with hordes when they inevitably get past void range

[subtle linden]

You spam force sword special until u brain pop urself aka melee dps aoe assassin

[alpine portal]

this is legit, its almost hard to burst with fs.

[lyric hatch]

@shut thorn voidstrike, the same way i got past hoards at lvl 11

[alpine portal]

I know pergus is mets, but void strike is the best.

[shut thorn]

wtf am I even reading

[cyan notch]

[alpine portal]

void strike, eff you and the hord behind you

[grave bobcat]

You know purg is meta ayy?

[frigid void]

why is it meta?

[grave bobcat]

What else do you know

🤔

[shut thorn]

He's saying that a lvl 11 should use FS and Voidstrike to level up to lvl 30

[wanton sandal]

voidstrike is a melee weapon

[burnt python]

you don't need a melee w/ void you just use the special

[shut thorn]

Instead of me telling the guy to use antax mk v and voidstrike because mk v gives the dude a safety net

[lyric hatch]

@shut thorn and?

[burnt python]

beat em down

[grave bobcat]

holy fuck

I think the emperor

Just gave me a fucking sex toy gift

???

[alpine portal]

ive seen it almost exclusively, it combos with the lvl 30 soul fire thingy Im not on my main

[grave bobcat]

Emperor

Please.... what is that

Why is it censored lmfao

[burnt python]

lmfao

[shut thorn]

You know why.......

[burnt python]

ur game is broken

[ancient ivy]

Chainsword honestly feels smoother than FS as a low level psyker imo

[alpine portal]

I got this after going down 20 times in a session

[grave bobcat]

Damn can't access my inventory unless I'm 18+ now

20??? lol

[shut thorn]

anything does

[grave bobcat]

Big E could at least give me a good gun

[teal cargo]

do psykers get braced autoguns 🤔

[cyan notch]

nomegalul

[shut thorn]

no

[grave bobcat]

We do not

[shut thorn]

u did remind me of how

autoguns, when spraying would snap unto horde heads

within a tiny cone

[burnt python]

braced autos and bb would actually be p nice together

[grave bobcat]

Closest we get is the imk V infatnry auto guns

[shut thorn]

in the network beta

[alpine portal]

recon laser is kinda, not at all, similar

[shut thorn]

rip that feature

[grave bobcat]

Mhmm

[alpine portal]

what are you seeing?

[grave bobcat]

Crutch is a crutch 🤷

[grave bobcat]

Purge meta

[shut thorn]

imagine trying to bait a new player to suffer subpar quell speeds

if you want the lvl 11 experience, go get a staff with like 20% quell speed

[grave bobcat]

I think the one that gets me is max hp curios

My brain just rejects it

[burnt python]

i run 3 hp curios lol

[grave bobcat]

Yeah but purple I accept you and all your flaws

[ebon jolt]

Gotta find that trauma staff with 0% charge speed.

[grave bobcat]

And you don't run 2 hp 1 wound though

[burnt python]

i swapped off the wound for more hp

[grave bobcat]

then we'd be throwing hands

[burnt python]

look @ my hp bar its glorious https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUvbVMBsF_w

[grave bobcat]

why tho

[alpine portal]

he never goes down?

[burnt python]

so i can not care bout fire n shit wh en standing in front line

[alpine portal]

lol

[ancient ivy]

what a sight to behold

[burnt python]

nothign ever does meaningful damage to me unless i fucked up in a way that im dead regardless

[grave bobcat]

Not waht im asking

[burnt python]

more value from heals too

none of the other shit is good enough

i'd run toughness regen if it worked

stam useless

resists too situational gimme full value all the time hp

[grave bobcat]

What secondar ydo you use?

[burnt python]

1 wound is good id just found it was usually irrelevant

[ancient ivy]

Hp is also good for corruption. Pox bursters annihilate squishies

[burnt python]

im literally running hp and +hp as secondary as my priorities lmao

all my curious are like +20% hp +4% hp

[grave bobcat]

Same but tougnes

[ebon jolt]

My original idea with deflector was HP curios with toughness regen and block efficiency. Then just sit there and block while waiting to get toughness back with cohesion regen and quietude.

[burnt python]

thats how i was running for a while, toughness regen borked unfortunately

i run block eff if im playing a lot of deflector, but i havent been lately

[ancient ivy]

is this confirmed? dang

[burnt python]

i havent tested personally but so they say

[ebon jolt]

I need to start working on new curios w/ health, toughness and CDR.

[crystal flower]

Is this Psyker a Demon?

[grave bobcat]

Im running all 3 with 17% and 4% toughness rn 2 and al with 20% gun res

[ebon jolt]

But every time I roll a good curio I get XP.

[wanton sandal]

what's the difference?

[leaden pier]

fellas does dialogue trim volume make voices louder or it refers to something else?

[grave bobcat]

The 3rd perk is all 4% CDR but imma just reroll that based on how I Feel

[burnt python]

i have 255hp

ogryn psyker

[teal cargo]

fat psyker

[grave bobcat]

160 tough, normal hp

[ancient ivy]

That is one half of an ogryn

[burnt python]

i would also swap to a wound if i was planning on grabbing grims

just for more of a safety net

[grave bobcat]

I'd prob do grim res

[burnt python]

grim res doesn't work right either apparently

loooool

[grave bobcat]

ofc it doesnt

lmfao

WHy would it

[ancient ivy]

fatshark moment

[grave bobcat]

Fair

wound thne

[burnt python]

there were ppl saying reg corruption resist is more effective evven w/ grims

[shut thorn]

fuck this covid shit

[grave bobcat]

actually

Nah i;d stil run the same sutp

[ancient ivy]

Honestly raw HP is the best defense.

[shut thorn]

dont expect more datamining from me, I physically feel too shit now

[burnt python]

i agree

it works vs everything

[simple junco]

It's the corruption

[shut thorn]

No it's the fucking immigrants who aren't fucking hygenic

[grave bobcat]

Well I trust purple enough that he can change my opinion on somethiing lmapo

but like

idk I guess the hp damage enemies actually deal is pretty meh anyway

I'l try it out if I happen upon the curios I guess

[burnt python]

ya just try both ways and see what feels better

toughness has its benefits too i just liked hp better

hp is more relevant when you're frontlining and toughness more relevant when trading w/ ranged fuck heads

[grave bobcat]

See I'#m complete opposite of the fence lol

SInce you know I've been using melee only a lot and frontlining with toughness feels best

Cause I can just tank ranged pot shotting me while dealing with melee

[burnt python]

the problem i ran into w/ toughness while meleeing a bunch was getting wrecked by fire, bombers, & bursters

if i have to eat something like that w/ hp its not a big deal

[grave bobcat]

If i'm front l;ining I usualy get first LOS dibs on bombers so fine wit hthat

Bursters are just

And inconsistent joke enemy

lmfao

[burnt python]

one slip up and they end a run lol

[grave bobcat]

"I don't feel .like being pushed this time"

[burnt python]

or if they decide they dont wanna be staggered

yeah lol

[wanton sandal]

wish flayer had a visible cooldown

[grave bobcat]

you can kinda time it off the warp stacks

[burnt python]

trauma 1 shots bursters on partial charge btw

like 60% charge ish

[grave bobcat]

eh wat

https://tenor.com/view/blinking-eyes-white-guy-blinking-meme-what-huh-gif-26334322

mid mission so I really awnt to see that

[sharp ibex]

Guys I finally did it. I now feel qualified to make some egregious hot takes

[grave bobcat]

but even the damage inspect is bugged for t rauma

[burnt python]

wait did they acknowledge its bugged and not even fix the ui?

lmao

thats good

[grave bobcat]

aapparently

[ancient ivy]

implying that the psyker penances have anything to do at all with being a good psyker lmao

[sharp ibex]

lmao that's the joke lmao

[burnt python]

idk what percentage charge exactly cus they aren't in the grinder, but ya takes like 1/2 second of charge to 1 shot em on damn

[sharp ibex]

I'm going back to me zealot as it is truly the class with the highest skill ceiling

[grave bobcat]

I'd just do it on mutie

[crude cape]

just making sure im not crazy, this is bad right? only 48% dmg bar

[burnt python]

nah not the same

trauma takes forever to kill mutis but 1 shots burster, hes gotta have a diff armor type or something

[grave bobcat]

oh wait

no pox is unarmlored

[night marten]

burster takes extra explosive damage

[grave bobcat]

cause the surge is shit vs it

[night marten]

that's why

[burnt python]

ahh

[night marten]

also why ogryn's can 1-shot them up to heresy

[burnt python]

that makes sense

[night marten]

only 2 shots for damn

[grave bobcat]

But really 1400 dmg?

[burnt python]

look @ very beginning of that vid i linked cal

like 30 secs in

i 1 shot a burster

[grave bobcat]

1 mo doing the ammo bit of the mission

nvm we died lmfao

[night marten]

dogs are another example, think they take 4x melee damage

[burnt python]

ya mutis take bonus melee too

[grave bobcat]

dogs are also unarmored too tho

[night marten]

it's not just armor type to consider, some enemies have specific multiplier modifiers to damage

[grave bobcat]

Yeah which is whats fucking up my Dot testing from ealrier

lmfao

Checking Trauma now hto

[night marten]

why aren't there bursters in the meatgrinder

[burnt python]

great question

[grave bobcat]

Prob didn't want the players finding some way to cause bugs with them

[night marten]

really wish we could use the servitor to delete our toughness/reduce health for feat testing

[grave bobcat]

like blowing yourself out of map bounds idk

The fact you can't take any kind of damage

But a medipack is on the table

stings

[burnt python]

lol never thought about that, pretty funny

[grave bobcat]

I'll try the damage on dog/mutie though since not really got anything closer o it

And I'm not taking this trash into a game lmao

Yeah they both take like 400 dmg

[grave bobcat]

Man this guys vid is hella grainy

Flamer not helping his case lol

[burnt python]

lol its mine i recorded it at shit quality cus my game chugs if i dont

[grave bobcat]

Oh it is you lmfao I just looked at the YT name

Bruh

turn up your bitrate

lord heavens

[burnt python]

i dont record anymore i had to figu re out how just to show someone trauma

[grave bobcat]

Fair

Whatever you use to record though make sure it uses your GPU

ANd will prob stop the game chugging

Cause its heavy CPU

[burnt python]

i did it thru my amd software i assumed it was tied to gpu but i'll check

[grave bobcat]

AMD CPU?

[burnt python]

no

just gpu

[grave bobcat]

hmm not familiar enough with it then

Which one you got I've been curious about them

[burnt python]

6600xt

[grave bobcat]

Since work doesn't decide what PC parts I use anymore 😛

[burnt python]

its alright

i prob wont go amd again i get more crashes in random games than i ever did w/ nvidia

[grave bobcat]

Yeah... unfortunately not AMD's fault either

[burnt python]

i dont know enough to know why it happens, just htat i dont like it haha

[grave bobcat]

I could prob figure it out but it sounds like work so you can happily pay me ❤️

[burnt python]

thank you for the opportunity but ima have to pass 🙂

[grave bobcat]

Almost gottem

[patent ledge]

odd, im having the opposite effect :0

[grave bobcat]

We'll gettem next time

Hmm

I wonder if the Psyker behind you used BB on it

[shut thorn]

Slide dmg mult: 0

[drowsy torrent]

need 2 ppl for going out with a bang penance. i'm on ogryn and we will rotate completions strike team 53

[burnt python]

it's possible but it consistently 1 shots, ive used it enough

[deft oak]

Just take 6 warp charges and you can pop a bulwark in 2. 🙂 (yes i know this is two hours old.)

[grave bobcat]

Damn really?

genuinely sounds like a ploy for you to grief me by making me take in a trauma lmfao

[burnt python]

yeah bursters, bulwarks, & crushers are what trauma handles better than other staves

[night marten]

truuuuuuue

[grave bobcat]

k bulwarks/crushers hard disagre

[burnt python]

*when not abusing bugs

🙂

[grave bobcat]

Even without

lol

[burnt python]

trauma is better vs em both than surge

or mayb ei'm just incredibly biased

i dont like surge

[grave bobcat]

Thats fair

If Trauma didn't charge your peril so fast

It'd prob be better

[burnt python]

for sure

[steel flame]

Remember when surge was called bestest boi

[burnt python]

thats its worst attribute

[grave bobcat]

But since I can kill them before I hit 60% peril even

Yesyes without the bug

lmao

[burnt python]

i dont mind it too much tho cus i just whip out the axe when peril is full

w/ my warp nexus crit bonus

and free toughness regen

[teal cargo]

Surge deals a fair amounta dmg to them

[night marten]

problem is due to their (ogryns) super telegraphed/slow attack patterns they're trivial threats. mostly just ignore them while killing everything else

[teal cargo]

since they wearing armor

still good to kill them otherwise your vet will be busy unloading their lasgun into the shield

[grave bobcat]

Yeah it's more just ice skating around them

[burnt python]

yeah i mostly agree, it's still nice having a way to clear em in a mixed horde since they block/eat dmg

[grave bobcat]

Dealing witha ctual problems

[burnt python]

and spamming trauma on them kills the horde around and leaves em alone and staggered

[shut thorn]

If shock troopers used their grenades, you guys would be vouching for surge

[night marten]

having it for bursters is super nice, but bursters are definitely coded to be "sneaky", minimizing line of sight to the group until they get as close as possible. between that and the weird terrain issues of trauma's targeting, I feel like its intended niche just isn't really there in practice

[teal cargo]

plus surge is better for bursters

[grave bobcat]

If you turn away from them and then look back

they almost always push you

[teal cargo]

since can actually shove them away from teammates

[shut thorn]

Surge is funny against bursters

[grave bobcat]

so just bait them that awy

[teal cargo]

the biggest bs is bursters coming through doors

[shut thorn]

nothing like stunning a burster that falls near a friendly and then exploding it on purpose to dmg said friendly

[grave bobcat]

If you're the one they're trying to run at anywya

[teal cargo]

and then jumping on you

[grave bobcat]

I need to put the to be continued meme on that burster clip I have

[teal cargo]

Im playing Vet and wow braced autoguns are so good 👀

but people prefer lasguns 😔

and i hate em

[solar remnant]

This is for bursters?

[teal cargo]

gotta click so much

[grave bobcat]

Yeah if you are the one they are targeting

It feels like it works so

[solar remnant]

I see

[grave bobcat]

No harm in doing it if it doesnt lmao

but they always just wait on a corner if you looka tit

[burnt python]

dont need los with the goat staff

[grave bobcat]

lmfao

dont start calling it that

[burnt python]

i'm here to spread propaganda

[grave bobcat]

There we go

Surge user pushing burster back into me

[burnt python]

being trolled by ur teammate

[simple junco]

Big if huge

[grave bobcat]

I want a better cut

lmao

[leaden pier]

damn had a zealot toss the farthest nade to save me from a hound

[grave bobcat]

Yeet

[leaden pier]

yeah it was that one assassination mission with the train station

they were inside past the point of no return and i was right outside the building with the med

[echo parrot]

Just happened, after this I ran up and slapped a host and let it kill me and everyone else.

Remember kids, being toxic means you can easily be sabotaged

[simple junco]

Sink the ship just to kill another sailor

Worth

[wanton sandal]

what for

[echo parrot]

No idea

Maybe because I got downed once?

Who fucking knows the mind of a toxic gamer™️

[leaden pier]

i dont get what the chat is talking about

[grave bobcat]

I hope you said "It's Britney Biatch" before aggroing them lol

[echo parrot]

I mean, it was 3 other sailers on a ship of 4 including me. I am fine with it.

[simple junco]

Lol, sometimes it just has to be done

[grave bobcat]

that name

lmfao

[devout trench]

this has probably been asked to death but where is a good place to do the cliffhanger penance?

[grave bobcat]

I think there is a Chasm Term

right now

Can just do it at the very beginning on the bridge

[devout trench]

ah cool will try it cheers

[grave bobcat]

Deal

I might have a friend interested too @lament glen

[wanton sandal]

wish i liked surge

[long wharf]

<@&735928989146939404> spam account

[grave bobcat]

No Gawain is my favourite 😠

[wanton sandal]

luv me gawain

[grave bobcat]

Ez

[lament glen]

shoulda deleted message history with the ban

idiot gawain

[long wharf]

[grave bobcat]

He answers the call

[patent ledge]

luv me warden

luv me gawain

[long wharf]

warden good men, give extra rations

[patent ledge]

simple as.

[grave bobcat]

Coming from other servers it's weird how civil these chats are with barely any mod presence lo

[patent ledge]

bring'em extra corpse starch

[grave bobcat]

Then again its already obvious

40k crowd generally older

[long wharf]

yep

[lament glen]

General attracts most of the toxicity and salt

class chats are far superior

[grave bobcat]

As is tradition

[long wharf]

I don't even bother looking in general

[grave bobcat]

General is always THE GREAT FILTER

[devout trench]

psykers are above it methinks

[grave bobcat]

And the further the channel is from general the more often it just makes little pocket communities lol

[weak galleon]

Did they hotfix the peril quell bug yet?

[grave bobcat]

They did

[patent ledge]

i think people have been reporting that it's fixed

[weak galleon]

k, ty

[patent ledge]

haven't tried it yet tho, been busy with leveling ogryn

[weak galleon]

decided to take a break while they've been sorting it out.

[plain mesa]

i leveled my ogryn too while they were sorting it out lol

[wanton sandal]

join me in sublime glory

[hollow hatch]

Ok someone help me.. Am I crazy or does BB not kill a hound on difficulty 4 in one shot?

[devout trench]

I've really been enjoying ogryn I like the big fast gun

[dull cedar]

tfw almost got going out with a bang solo and all bots decided to focus ragers out of nowhere, instantly killed all of them and I explode for nothing
tfw bots griefed me

[wanton sandal]

takes two unless flayer procs

[plain mesa]

playing ogryn made me feel like i was playing a different game lol

[hollow hatch]

Thats fucking wild

[wanton sandal]

it still staggers them

[hollow hatch]

Its a HOUND

[patent ledge]

https://tenor.com/view/yes-sir-yes-boss-military-salute-giving-honor-rip-gif-23161689

[hollow hatch]

how does bb not one shot it ffs

[wanton sandal]

lol ikr

it prolly gets them like down to 1hp

[grave bobcat]

1400 hp

So halves them

[patent ledge]

im almost there, brother

[hollow hatch]

They really need to make BB scale man, this is unacceptable.

[patent ledge]

just need 7 more levels

[grave bobcat]

I mean BB isn't even good t1-3 anyawys

[hollow hatch]

And thats just difficulty 4 I cant imagine playing Psyker on Damnation...

Ffs

[grave bobcat]

Its fine

Snipers/Bombers/Guners

Still 1 shots

[wanton sandal]

at least give me a curio that scales my BB

[grave bobcat]

Trappers also

[wanton sandal]

+10% bb damage

[hollow hatch]

Nah the real answer is this.

[wanton sandal]

+5% chargeg

[grave bobcat]

Tbh all its value is sniper 1 tapping for me

[devout trench]

I'm not really good but on tier 5 you can deal with the most annoying ones the rest of the squad might get annoyed with

[hollow hatch]

Give us a BB weapon. Something to equip that buffs our hands lol

[wanton sandal]

and dealing with reapers

[devout trench]

and the staff with the flame is really fun

[grave bobcat]

Meh there are better ways to deal with them

[fierce hazel]

BURN THE ERETICS

[wanton sandal]

like what?

[hollow hatch]

Why do people not like the Purgation Staff? It seems absolutely incredible for damage and stagger.

[grave bobcat]

And I just ignore them at this point cause I have 93% resist to them lmfao

[wanton sandal]

i always duck behind cover and headpop them

[hollow hatch]

Bolters lol

[teal cargo]

Shotgunners too

[devout trench]

I just use the first one I picked ngl

[fringe garden]

I think the Psyker community is coming around to purgation more and more

[wanton sandal]

i dont run into many people running bolters

[grave bobcat]

Just use staff left click

[teal cargo]

How you get 93% resist 👀

[grave bobcat]

If you're not using purge

[wanton sandal]

idk. i just like having range

[grave bobcat]

3x curio + 33% trait

[devout trench]

hang on which one is purgation

[hollow hatch]

BB is your range imo lol

[simple junco]

Funny enough, we found out AB isn't as good as we thought it was lol

[clear heath]

fire

[dull cedar]

came from zealot flamer and I can't stand it. it's a weaker version of flamer basically

[teal cargo]

no kinetic deflection?

[devout trench]

oh right yeah thats my favourite

[wanton sandal]

too slow, i like my voidstrike

spam out some warpballs

[teal cargo]

It doesnt have the long reload or draw animation

[lethal gazelle]

void

[patent ledge]

purgatus is good but i just prefer surge for me but purgatus def slaps especially when built right

[teal cargo]

yea they both good

my fav staffs on top 😎

[grave bobcat]

I missed the reply button to you arya if you didnt see what i said lmao

[teal cargo]

Oh?

[wanton sandal]

i'll switch between 'em, like if im doing investigation i'll run purg, but i prefer voidstrike

[patent ledge]

but any trauma staff enjoyers in the chat

[wanton sandal]

both are good

[simple junco]

Purg is great, but it does take a lot of toughness away from the team if used too much

[grave bobcat]

I don't use deflector

[teal cargo]

Ah still even for normal melee is good for more blocks and all

[wanton sandal]

just ran with a really good one i got and i hated it

[simple junco]

There's quite a few trauma enthusiasts here

[teal cargo]

Unless you got purg and can maintain your stacks

But then not having deflector is 👀

[patent ledge]

i try to love it but i just can't 🥲

[grave bobcat]

Idk I'm usually dodging around them so dont need block

peril block*

[night marten]

but have you completed all psyker penances

[teal cargo]

But like we all know how reliable it is to maintain warp charges 💀

[lethal gazelle]

my void removes purge at 2% with every week spot 🙂

[teal cargo]

So I feel like might as well take KE

[hollow hatch]

Sort of? It doesn't get disrupted once you start casting on damage. And it doesn't have the downtime on reload.

[wanton sandal]

all but the 100 missions one

im on my road there

[night marten]

it's 250

[patent ledge]

this guy dark tides

[hollow hatch]

Any advice on getting the 3 kills by blowing yourself up?

[simple junco]

"Every tide has its dark" - that guy

[wanton sandal]

who up darkening they tide?

[grave bobcat]

KE?

[hollow hatch]

Even cheese?

[patent ledge]

it's tiding time

[simple junco]

brb tiding

[wanton sandal]

find a group of 3 maulers/ragers, bb them once, and then blow up

i got it purely on accident

[alpine portal]

get a good group together. get a lot of wound curios

[teal cargo]

Even if not blocking hordes normally being able to revive in hordes and block tank DH imo is worth more than sometimes having gun res up

[hollow hatch]

how much damage is the explosion?

[night marten]

~1 BB worth

[hollow hatch]

Ugh

[devout trench]

I wish I could play solo for a few penances

[night marten]

use bots, players kill the squishy stuff too quickly

soften with purge/surge

[grave bobcat]

Press F, revive

[teal cargo]

if gotta revive more than 1 and don always have ult up

[leaden pier]

i reccomend running heresy since it's more likely you'll have elites rushing u

[hollow hatch]

Also the 90% damage to a monstrosity with BB alone still hasn't been changed? What the fuck dude.

[grave bobcat]

Well theres 2 of you now anyway

[night marten]

90% was the change

used to be 100%

[simple junco]

Minor details

[patent ledge]

yeah, heresy has a tendency of giving you a battalion of ragers

[austere sandal]

this worth getting? the stats arent great, but its got deflector

[teal cargo]

and again maintaining warp charges are so inconsistent without Purg that I don really value extra ranged res

[hollow hatch]

It should just be get the killing blow on a monstrosity with BB lol

[leaden pier]

wasnt it 80% at one point?

[night marten]

jesus that's an awesome FS, get it

[grave bobcat]

Kinetic Fllayer does that

[leaden pier]

or was i dyslexic

[teal cargo]

Its not really enough to keep max stacks

[grave bobcat]

Ye it is

I always have 4 stacks

Literally all the time unless there hasb een a break

[teal cargo]

Anyways maybe it can work but I wouldn, KD is the most unfair thing Psykers got

[grave bobcat]

I like it, I never have to think about maintaining warps

[true torrent]

Eh, if you run Kinetic Flayer + Barrage its not hard to keep them rolling, would be nice if they decayed one stack at a time though

[teal cargo]

Then I would seriously question the uptime on the warp charges... you got like 5s window if you jus relying on Flayer 💀

[alpine portal]

I did not know crits could give soul blaze... jesus.

[grave bobcat]

idk I don't think about them

Which is why I use Flayer lol

But I always happen to be using Barrage at some point

And/or flayer will keep them maxed

[wanton sandal]

huh, my gaggle of psykers just referenced the sisters of battle

[grave bobcat]

I literally never think about them

[fringe garden]

essence harvest -kinetic flayer- purgation staff is nice for constant toughness regeneration

[grave bobcat]

they're just always there

[leaden pier]

fellas what perk should i reroll and what should i look for on this?

[teal cargo]

Ive paid attention to them cos tried running Surge with AB

[wanton sandal]

prolly weakspot id

[leaden pier]

i never use dueling swords

[teal cargo]

and getting max stacks for the Fire

[vital bough]

Definitely good enough to use. Damage might not be that great but the 25% roll on unarmored is great. You can just reroll the other for another tier 4 perk, and later down the road change out Blazing Spirit for another Blessing if you desire.

[teal cargo]

but its just so inconsistent

That idk maybe you better than me at keeping stacks 😆

[vital bough]

I just run Psychic Communion if I'm trying to get stack overflow

[grave bobcat]

I don't do anything to keep them just general gameplay keeps them maxed

[teal cargo]

I meam in my general gameplay that doesnt happen is what im saying

[grave bobcat]

Isn't AB really good at keeping them though

[teal cargo]

Not with surge

[grave bobcat]

Oh mbad

I read purge

[teal cargo]

But yea if you have Purg its consistent

But if you have purg really feel like need the deflect to not be gunned down and all

[vital bough]

If your Feats and build is geared towards benefits when you gain warp charges, I think Psychic Communion is a superior, albeit more selfish choice, to Psykinetic's Aura.

[grave bobcat]

Always feels like we're playing 2 different games when I talk to you Arya lmao

Keeps it interesting at least lol

[teal cargo]

its got an 18m range unless jus relyimg on BB

[night marten]

agreed.. unless you're also running KO

then communion is just a way for the whole team to drop 4 stacks of soulblaze on the nearest elite with each kill

[teal cargo]

Without KD, I feel.like Psyker just doesnt have much going for it over Zealot 💀

You got a Purg sidegrade but much better natural bulk

and for DR stacking, Zealot just does that a lot better

[fallow spoke]

what lvl should I be before trying to get Malleus Monstrorum?

[lucid mortar]

26.3

jk it doesn't matter

[vital bough]

Yeah it's kinda weird how in a sense, your team adds to your own dps by being around them when they kill shit.

I do like the combo of Psychic Communion + Ascendant Blaze for extra Warp Charges, then funnel them all into Kinetic Overload. It's a fun little loop.

[fallow spoke]

haha, well I guess I'll just need to go find a group of Ogryns to help me with it then

[lucid mortar]

you'll probably want to be 30 to speed it up though

[sacred lodge]

Ok, so brainburst against a squad of dreg or scab shooters doesn’t work, deflector doesn’t really help much because I’m a numpty when it comes to an effective approach… I’ve found using cover and gradually approaching with purgatus before flushing them out works, but that’s not always an option especially on maps like “the Torrent”

Yeah I got nothing.

[lucid mortar]

you can still do it though

[covert cosmos]

as a zealot, i wish i had brain burst/ranged dmg DR

[fallow spoke]

I'm at 22, I'll probably just wait

[teal cargo]

You have 25% everything DR

[ebon jolt]

Emperors Gift:

[covert cosmos]

i do

[ebon jolt]

If only the base stats were a bit higher.

[covert cosmos]

?

isnt the aura like

7-8%

[sacred lodge]

Brainburst does help, but it— the best way I can describe it is if your team is already getting shot at, brain burst isn’t fast enough

[teal cargo]

Yes Zealot gets 7 + 18

[covert cosmos]

are you talking about that feat

it doesn't stack

[sacred lodge]

Because a lot of the time, people don’t get the chance to get into cover

[teal cargo]

It doesnt stack? 👀

[sacred lodge]

Or worse, choose not to

[covert cosmos]

the +15% aura replaces the 7% aura

[teal cargo]

Oh

😔

[covert cosmos]

yes the tooltip is misleading

fuck you fatshark

[teal cargo]

obese fish

[blissful hill]

yoo check what i just found in the shop on my psyker:

[teal cargo]

strikes again

[blissful hill]

https://tenor.com/view/happy-tears-gif-25605273

[sacred lodge]

So uh… I guess the best thing I can do is learn the maps?

[grave bobcat]

Sry wasi n game

[toxic lagoon]

Should I wait for a better Mk 5, or just consecrate this one anyway?

[grave bobcat]

idk in a way when you compare it like this it sounds like you want the class to do all the heavy lifting for you

[teal cargo]

🤔I jus wanna play the class to its strengths and all

[lucid mortar]

depends on you, if you don't have better and want to use it, go for it

[teal cargo]

and KD is something Zealot has no equiv to

[lucid mortar]

not really much sense waiting around for better items, except to save some crafting mats I guess

[covert cosmos]

i have like 150 hours in this game and i still havent seen an antax with brutal momentum

consecrate that shit

[flat shadow]

i just spent like 250 diamantine on upgrading the first force sword i found to purple and the game immediately drops me a yellow chainsword with 100+ more power level

why did i bother lol

[drowsy fog]

Yea save mats until 350+

[teal cargo]

yea don upgrade. efore lvl 30

[drowsy fog]

Or you're just gonna upgrade out real fast

[teal cargo]

Same as in Vermintide 😎

[lucid mortar]

I kinda agree but also you can get more mats, whereas great items aren't really a guarantee. I agree about the lvl 30 though

[flat shadow]

i waited yeah but i bought that sword at lvl 30 and upgraded it to 380

[drowsy fog]

Base value 350

[flat shadow]

random drop sword is 470

[drowsy fog]

Total value is eh

[teal cargo]

yea base value 350 is a good rule of thumb

[grave bobcat]

Sorry in game i did read

[teal cargo]

Total value is sketch cos diff perks are worth diff amounts kinda arbitrarily

[flat shadow]

i bought the force sword in profane tier

[grave bobcat]

will reply when i can 😛

[flat shadow]

so it was not so good

[teal cargo]

didd you roll deflector?

at least?

[lucid mortar]

first step is to find out which stats are priority on the weapons you want to use

[flat shadow]

you guys dont understand though this is the very first force sword i have been able to find

[teal cargo]

take your time 😆

[lucid mortar]

then you can potentially find a perfectly fine weapon under 350 base

[flat shadow]

no deflector

what is that

[lucid mortar]

it allows the force sword to block ranged attacks

generally considered one of the best blessings for a force sword

[teal cargo]

yea ^

very rare too

cos apparently fat shark thinks it needs to be more rare

[lucid mortar]

This is the one I use, sub 350 base, but still pretty nice

I gambled it lmao

[long wharf]

what was the other perk?

[lucid mortar]

honestly don't remember

[clear heath]

Must have been shit if he kept the stamina instead

That's a nice sword though. I wish i had that

[sacred lodge]

I also feel like I'm somehow getting worse at managing perils; I'm overloading so muhc more often now

[foggy thorn]

Apart from the obvious (having a squad of friends) whats the best way to do going out with a blast, i keep either missing my pop or under damaging the elites and it makes me see into the warp myself

[sacred lodge]

so I just feel like I'm a load for the team to carry, absolutely bloody useless

[wanton sandal]

take peril resist and stop around 90 instead of pushing the limit

[sacred lodge]

uh.... yo?

stats could be better but... yeah, that's a keeper

[low onyx]

Yo anyone in here using Las pistol and sword knows whats up

[shut thorn]

switch sword for combat blade

[low onyx]

Too based for me friend

Force sword makes me feel like an r rated sith lord

[echo timber]

same though

[low onyx]

the feeling of slicing through hordes is too clean

then popping the big boy after throwing everything to the floor with your mind

[hollow hatch]

God the amount of useless fucking zealots in this game is unreal

._.

Dw I'll bb all the elites and also clear the horde with my purgation. You just keep using a shotgun and thunderhammer bro. You're useful I swear.

[grave bobcat]

Fu emperor and your shitty duel sword

ooo

[low onyx]

The las pistol stun has crazy range

[leaden pier]

what stun

[low onyx]

Special attack is an interrupt

Interupt an elite then shoot a souple rounds into it until your brainburst auto applies from the ability

[leaden pier]

oh yeah the shove

[low onyx]

Yeah I only use it while im killing shooters so it might as well be a stun for their life expectancy after I use it

[fresh reef]

new patch do anything for us siblings?

[echo timber]

not that i noticed

[long wharf]

it fixed some bugs

that's all the patch did, fixed issues introduced by the previous patch

surge is usable again

[ebon jolt]

Surge staff is usable again and 100% peril quelling issue fixed.

[muted swan]

i want to try this class just having a hard time using the cool magic thingy

[simple junco]

Holy shit, the power sword is actually insane

[long wharf]

well, that's because BB isn't fun to use

[simple junco]

Why do veterans ever complain when they have the power sword?

[muted swan]

.....bb? enlighten me as i am new

[simple junco]

Brain Burst, it's your G ability

[long wharf]

because they want "bUiLd DiVeRsItY"

[muted swan]

🥲

oh

[simple junco]

It's a single target cast that takes about 2.5 seconds, really rough to use the higher in difficulty it is

[muted swan]

but its soo cooooooool

[true torrent]

only worth using with KB

[grave bobcat]

Easier to blame part of a class than yourself for being bad 🥲

[sour bison]

Skill issue

[sacred lodge]

I know I'm bad

I'm trying to improve

but damn if it doesn't feel Sisyphean at points

[simple junco]

No worries, the game works against you at times

[true torrent]

They fix trauma yet?

[sacred lodge]

like that one time where it felt like Tzeentch said "fuck these four in particular"

get torrent map, try to go down stairs, three reapers, three gunners, about five different squads of dreg and scab shooters, a sniper, a bomber, and a plague ogryn are waiting for us down below

AND THEN

[devout trench]

nah why is logistratum level 5 difficulty bruh I'm just tryna get cliffhanger 😭

[simple junco]

Yikes, shit just hit the fan there

[fresh reef]

what was bugged with it again?

[teal needle]

Iirc they fixed it partially but the crap damage is intentional

[echo parrot]

Rate my void

[sacred lodge]

two more hordes, and another plague ogryn, topped by one of our zealots getting glitched outside the map

[simple junco]

Void expert here, that is a void staff

(nah it's pret good)

[echo parrot]

Its a void wearing a purg costume

[echo timber]

the glitching out the map sucks i've joined one and spawned under stairs

[grave bobcat]

I got eatenb y a staircase arlier

[teal needle]

Amazing stats, good perks and decent blessings. I'd trade some damage for comfort once they let you change blessings

[sacred lodge]

have I mentioned this was heresy difficulty? not even damnation
and there was no high intensity engagement modifier

[simple junco]

I think heresy is just cursed

I've had way more cursed runs on heresy than damnation honestly

[sacred lodge]

I don't know who it was, but someone on that team was related to a Lamenter, because it was cursed

probably the zealot that glitched

[subtle linden]

When are we getting reblessing crafting

[long wharf]

did you check in-mission?

there's a long-standing bug where a heresy mission with no special conditions will have high-intensity applied by the server

which you can see if you hold Tab in-game

[crisp yacht]

potentially juicy. whats best dump stat for void?

[long wharf]

that's a good staff

upgrade it

[crisp yacht]

yay terrifying barrage!

[wispy hazel]

anybody can help me lvl ? need to this game kinda hard playing solo

[long wharf]

that's one, get it to legendary and see if you get peril transfer

[long wharf]

so close

reroll crit hit damage for ranged crit chance

[crisp yacht]

sustained fire any good?

[long wharf]

you really want peril transfer

[crisp yacht]

yeah im poor now cant even reroll right now

[long wharf]

it's what allows you to do charged secondaries into a crowd at head level and never stop firing

[crisp yacht]

yeah i have one with it but low base stats

[fresh reef]

spicy

[granite pulsar]

For psychers warp absorption what is considered a "Warp attack" is that just BB?

[crisp yacht]

staff stuff

[drowsy fog]

Anything that gives you peril

[crisp yacht]

force sword

[granite pulsar]

ah ok so its better than essence harvest

[crisp yacht]

essence harvest is 4% chance to get warp charges right? i use that all da time

[granite pulsar]

No its the 30% toughness over 5 secs when gaining a warp charge first row

[drowsy fog]

That's psychic communion

[crisp yacht]

ah

[scenic tapir]

Ok I've been trying to use Trauma in T5 for a while now and man, this is unplayable. The amount of peril it generates on anything other than an uncharged right click is absurd. It will outright blow you up if you full charge and launch one at like 82 peril

wtf were they thinking? You can't even use it because of the size of the hordes

[granite pulsar]

Yeah I agree I don't know how to get use out of Trauma even if for fun at higher tiers

[scenic tapir]

You can cast twice and then you blow up, what is the point of that? If the radius were 2x the size and 20% more damage, ok maybe?

But it doesn't even stagger elites unless you charge it, maniacs require a full charge

[granite pulsar]

Yeah i'd be fine if it was just like double the size.

[scenic tapir]

I'm personally offended by the implementation of this staff

I haven't played much Heresy in a while but I expect the hordes are too dense there as well

[uncut hamlet]

I'm willing to sell this staff to someone, starting at 20 000 dockets. Pretty good rolls if I do say so myself

[scenic tapir]

Charge rate is too low imo

[floral stump]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m97cGt9jDb8
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nf8ITJddoEs&t=44s

[scenic tapir]

but barrage does work, I have that on two of mine

[uncut hamlet]

everything is terrible I dont know what you mean, the base stats are great

[scenic tapir]

oh just noticed 28% quell lol

That's...unpleasant

[uncut hamlet]

283 lmao

It smth i wouldve found at 25 idk why its there

[wanton sandal]

charge rate

[wise pecan]

The best part of that staff is its blessing

[wanton sandal]

charge rate goes from like 1.9 to 1.6 or something

not very worthwhile

[solar remnant]

Across all staves?

[wanton sandal]

nah it varies from staff to staff

the charge rate, i mean

[misty void]

Voidstrike naturally has the fastest charge so any additional charge doesn't matter much

[long wharf]

it's less important, but I still wouldn't consider it a dump stat

[wanton sandal]

yeah

[uncut hamlet]

Not necessarily a dump, but I'd say the other stats are more important

[long wharf]

I'd suggest blast radius as a lesser stat

you don't want it at 60%, but it's fine to have it at 70%

[uncut hamlet]

Hm maybe. It's pretty useful in hordes though

Yea

[long wharf]

the blast radius doesn't affect the collision size of the projectile

just the AoE that happens when the projectile stops passing through enemies

[vital bough]

Yeah it's not all that important

[uncut hamlet]

Ye Ik, but sometimes you tap it to get a close range explosion

[long wharf]

sure

I'd say damage and warp resist as primary

[shut thorn]

t. class with most weapons in the game

[long wharf]

yeah, and they have four guns that define builds

MB12, recon, boltgun, plasgun

and they have feats the synergize well for each of them

[shut thorn]

They have a lot of melees too

[long wharf]

well, power sword

it's still #1

there isn't a reason to use any other melee as a veteran if you have a power sword

[shut thorn]

if they want build variety, they can switch and have fun with other weps

[long wharf]

well, true, but via that logic, every class has huge numbers of builds

which just isn't the case

[shut thorn]

Except the difference is, the other melees are still viable, it's just that PS is op

[cyan notch]

ratio

[grave bobcat]

Not the worst I guess 😦

[karmic quail]

Any good tips for getting Cliffhangar? The push is so weak...

[grave bobcat]

Stupid blessings

[shut thorn]

chasm logistratum

people did it at 20/20, you can do it at 7/7

[long wharf]

it's trivial to do on that map at the beginning

[mental rock]

you can use force sword push after F to get more enemies

[karmic quail]

I'm having trouble keeping the pack compact enough to push off all at once

[shut thorn]

switch to a higher difficulty

[karmic quail]

Bingo this is what I'm looking for

[cyan notch]

i just spammed force sword push

didnt even need f

[long wharf]

on Chasm Logistratum, the starting area has a big bridge, with a suspended walkway next to it

[karmic quail]

Level 25 no force sword lol

[long wharf]

get the whole team on one side of the bridge, wait for a horde to spawn, then as the horde is on that walkway, run to the bridge and push them all off

getting 7 horde enemies off that little walkway is, well, trivial

super easy

you'd have to try hard to not get at least 7 enemies off

[manic needle]

JustArmouryThings

FS probably couldnt have designed a worse itemization system for a horde shooter without monetization or intentionally trying really hard to make it worse.

[idle panther]

Psyker
Orange Infantry Lasgun
t-thanks emperor, y-you shouldn't have.

[serene sinew]

Anyone notice hounds and bursters no longer being pushed back by force push?

[karmic quail]

Emperor "You're such a shit psyker, be a guardsman instead"

[idle panther]

if they made Trauma Force staff have a really fast charge time and really low peril cost, I'd use it
then I could go fwabwabwabwabwabwa

I never thought I'd say it but I miss conflag staff

[mossy wasp]

this any good?

[idle panther]

I never played the mage in VT2 but after they get their account-wipe service working again I plan on maxing all the classes and subclasses

[void hearth]

usable i think

[fallow forum]

I need to get my monster mega head pop penance done

[fresh reef]

would you guys say that this game is like Overwatch in that the inability to carry bad teams 100% of the time is a personal skill issue?

[void hearth]

what diff u play?

[mossy wasp]

lvl 27 atm, so 3

[karmic quail]

Trauma is conflag, except the aiming is off, it does less stun, and the aoe is way way weaker. Also conflag set the area of effect on fire and enemies it hit on fire. Trauma is not even in the same league

[void hearth]

try playing 4 ya i think you can get away with that

[idle panther]

bummer

[karmic quail]

Don't worry, they're gonna buff it. They have to, it's so unarguably awful.

[idle panther]

this was what I got for the mission completion, btw

[jovial frigate]

theyre just gonna reduce its peril cost and then forget it exists

[grave bobcat]

copium

[fresh reef]

I still like running Trauma because I find it fun, even in its current state

[idle panther]

wish I could put it into a mold and smelt it into a voidforce staff

[primal fjord]

Man..why they revert the surge staff VFX effect 100% to what it was. The blur screen yeah get rid of, but I liked the added blue lighting.

Maybe add a option to turn on/off in graphic options. 🤷

[hardy lily]

carried with trauma stuff fuck yeah

[void hearth]

with most of the laz I think its more about how u feel about it. if you like the flow u can get away with it bc most of them do basically the same thing: (are pretty reliable overall)

[supple skiff]

member when they said that trauma was going to get buffed cause it did less damage than the damage tables said it should, I member

[echo parrot]

Who needs quell speed am I right?

[hardy lily]

yknow the more I use trauma staff the more I like it

[jovial frigate]

because its christmas and no real changes will happen for the next 2 weeks

[dense cloud]

this any good ? 😄

[idle panther]

that surge force staff effect is really ughhhhhhh
at first I thought people were overreacting but when I tried it out it was awful

[supple skiff]

https://prnt.sc/ewLXYL8T-DGk about to do some stupid shit over at hadrons

[void hearth]

why not just swap off staff if u need quell?

[echo parrot]

Thats the joke

[idle panther]

would be nice if there were curios that were class-specific, like a curio that grants quell-speed or BB charge speed, etc.

[karmic quail]

Is swapping to a muggle weapon seriously still the best way to quell?

[hardy lily]

quell on staff is important

[void hearth]

ahhhhhhhhh see i dont play psyker so i dont get ur jokes

[hardy lily]

weapon swapping takes too long

[void hearth]

i prefer my 2 iq zealot humor

[hardy lily]

you lose rps by swapping to force sword to quell

and if you're doing to swap to melee then it better be useful to melee

[jovial frigate]

you know what.. imma roll this. just need 10 gorrillion more plastic

[void hearth]

https://tenor.com/view/xqc-twitch-youtube-wot-huh-gif-26318085

Who said I am using a force sword

[grave bobcat]

use it rn

[hardy lily]

I'm not using force sword either, that's why I said the second part

[echo parrot]

You dont pay my sub

[jovial frigate]

i wonder if 25 maniac + 8 weak is enough to 1 shot ragers on damn

[grave bobcat]

Wait

who are you paying

[hardy lily]

by the way if you uninitiated didn't know, if you want autoquell to quell faster, start a quell on staff/G and get it to move then swap to autoquell

reduces autoquell delay by like 2 seconds

[echo parrot]

The US government. Taxes are just a sub you pay to keep playing the game of US citizenship.

[grave bobcat]

L

[idle panther]

what's good to roll for on a voidstrike?

[grave bobcat]

my shredder pistol isn't too bad tbh which is kinda funny

[hardy lily]

like blessings?

[idle panther]

just the perk

[grave bobcat]

Hope the 2nd blessing doesn't get griefed

[hardy lily]

hmm.... flak armor + headshot is a possible option

[sour stirrup]

Hey so what blessings do you want on a Surge staff?

[grave bobcat]

nexus

[hardy lily]

it's harder for voidstrike to kill scab zombies

[grave bobcat]

Thas it really

lol

Once they fix Warp Flurry

then that too

[idle panther]

so maybe some scab dmg

[jovial frigate]

still need 4 stacks 😦

[sour stirrup]

I have terrifying barrage on literally every Surge staff I have

[hardy lily]

scabs are flak armor so it'd be flak armor damage

[sour stirrup]

Need them to hurry the hell up and fix crafting already.

[frigid void]

Why is flame staff considered best?

[grave bobcat]

Is it?

[hardy lily]

stupid amounts of synergy

[wanton sandal]

it isn't, it's just a really good staff

[grave bobcat]

By who

[hardy lily]

requires specific rolls on staff + specific build

[wanton sandal]

everything that isn't trauma is good

[frigid void]

reddit/steam/guides

[hardy lily]

if you got some random ass purgatus staff it wont do shit

[wanton sandal]

bandwagon ig, i do just fine with a void in heresy+

[hardy lily]

blessings are 100% required for purgatus

[supple skiff]

purge is the only staff with any sort of feat synergy

but beyond that

[wanton sandal]

purg has a lot of synergy with feats tho

[grave bobcat]

And I could prob find an equal amount of Surge/Void guides on those too lol

[jovial frigate]

flame staff is just the next flavor because youtube audience is tired of hearing about zappy staff

[wanton sandal]

cant wait for void to get its time in the spotlight

[jovial frigate]

give it 2 weeks and voidstrike will be the sexiest thing out with 672 videos of voidstrike builds

GUYS YOU HAVE TO TRY THIS VOIDSTRIKE BUILD

[supple skiff]

"build"

[hardy lily]

Voidstrike is the horde clear, Surge is the Dog/Mutant CC, and Purgatus is Zealot's flamethrower, but worse, but then better because of Feat synergy

[scenic tapir]

I mean Surge is good but the number of targets on T5 makes me favor Purgatus. Can still stagger Maniacs with it and it clears the chaff so you're just fighting naked elites

[grave bobcat]

And in all my pugs y'all can be running any shit

[wanton sandal]

purg is only good if you use it with the feats

otherwise it's just a discount flamer

[grave bobcat]

Players are usually the issue 🥲

[wanton sandal]

with no ammo

[grave bobcat]

Not classes

[hardy lily]

yeah without feats purgatus is dollar store flamer

[idle panther]

it's ok we can be void hipsters

[wanton sandal]

soon as it gets popular im gonna become a trauma hipster

[hardy lily]

I just turned into a Trauma hipster so I'm even cooler

[supple skiff]

saw a youtuber early on with a decent following go on like the feat thaT gives you BB percent on kill was "op" with a recon las

[wanton sandal]

then a gun psyker hipster

[cyan notch]

purg is lame usually theres a zealot and usually theyll have flamer so no need to double up

[naive dawn]

Void is already good, trauma I just dont get.

Low damage, massive stagger, but surge does that better and a much more forgiving range.

[wanton sandal]

trauma just has way too much peril gain for me to like it

[supple skiff]

they will say anything for engagment lol

[potent echo]

Surge feels painful because during hordes you just have a FS bot

[sour stirrup]

Trauma can get interesting blessings.

[hardy lily]

Peril* window is very tight but honestly it's not THAT bad

if you're maxing

[naive dawn]

Trauma can get rending, but its not brittle so its kinda whatever.

[grave bobcat]

A FS bot?

[idle panther]

trauma needs to let you be a mushroom-cloud-laying mofo

[naive dawn]

I just mean trauma is very hard to use at range targets

[sour stirrup]

Trauma can also get Soulblaze on Crit. Which is interesting.

[grave bobcat]

And special killing is more fun

[naive dawn]

versus surge that is just point and click

[frigid void]

is there a place i can read up on the blessings that staves can get so i know what to look for?

[hardy lily]

Surge is low damage unless it's like 3 armored people or less

[grave bobcat]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/weapon-blessing-traits

[naive dawn]

Soulblaze is bad, and those feats are bad unless you use purg then they work.

[wanton sandal]

you still get the warp bolt, unlike purg

[naive dawn]

its left click is strong, people over use right click which is for stagger not damage.

[frigid void]

thank you

[grave bobcat]

np

[naive dawn]

Yeh, purg not having warpbolt feels awful

[cyan notch]

no its great

left click is a stagger everything machine

[grave bobcat]

Its fun watching the bad takes roll in while eating lo

[vital bough]

On purg?

[naive dawn]

on surge

[hardy lily]

for trauma I'd want Rending Shockwave + Warp Flurry

[naive dawn]

like on horde just whiff left clicks and you can actually fire almost non stop into hordes and jsut aim for heads

[sour stirrup]

Just realized my Void Staff is actually dope and I'm pretty happy about it

[wanton sandal]

void so fine...

[sour stirrup]

https://puu.sh/JuHZ2/033959666a.jpg

[wanton sandal]

just wish i had transfer peril instead of uhmm lol

[sour stirrup]

Still working on something else for that perk but I like it

[vital bough]

That is indeed pretty baller.

78% damage

Transfer Peril

Warp Nexus

I have yet to see anybody with a lvl 4 Warp Nexus blessing tho

[naive dawn]

In 2023 we get reroll so save big score weapons.

[wanton sandal]

why do voids love unyielding

[naive dawn]

I dont think there is

[sour stirrup]

I got no idea

[wanton sandal]

cant believe it's gonna take them an entire year

[sour stirrup]

I need to roll that into something useful
