I DO understand the desire to have a massive murder special attack like the Eviscerator does. Why not have that tool in the box. But other than that what does the force sword have that the axe doesn't
Honestly Heresy was why i swapped to the autogun, i was using the torrent lasgun, which melts hordes, but takes ages to kill any gunners or the like. Damage droppoff in Heresy+ is real
i went trauma because peril generating machine lolz
I find the time taken to charge and kill with force sword special to be too much imo, I’d rather brain burst or axe chop
Fr tho, what they should do with Revvy, is make a new one to give to psykers an vet's with like a speedloader or summat, an size the old one up, make it fire massive slugs an give it to Ogryns
also it can do both CC and damage, although peril cost is ridiculous
deflector
Give me a boltrevolver. With six rounds. Then I'll play
Yea, it’s just the other cc and single target tools are ranged and can be used while out of line of sight, making it a lot safer
The Boltvolver?
also you cant do this with axe
but axe is still WAY more efficient even with the lawnmower
WHAT IN THE BALLLLS
This is what my lawnmower does
I know thats q cancelling but GAWD DAMN
i named it FS lawnmower for a reason lolz
You invented a hedge trimmer for humans
because that's macro shenanigans
You mean the repeater pistol from VT2?
lol dont remind me about pysker macro shenanigans
Proud Kerillian main idk what anyone else used
out of the 4 i found and posted, only 2 got fixed
ELF? MAIN? ELF MAIN?
Poggers bridge?!
I’m disappointed your ogryn isn’t called Lumberfoot
POGGA! IM STILL STANDING!
i rather it be called smash
This would have been a better choice. But now I can say "let's get Crunk"
Elf main to psyker pipeline
Auntie Sienna’s influence is too great
That’s kinda like psyker now
Sienna is just a great character
Fatshark just needs to allow us to be MORE crazy
Pysker need to be more crazy
There’s… a lot of issues FatShark needs to deal with right now
I’m not happy with the warp charge mechanic tbh
wish it could drop stack by stack
Oh but the 3% damage boost.
It’s too clunky and the fact that it is heavily influenced by feats is not god design
Psyker is the platonic ideal of needing to scrape everything you can get together for it to work
We persist despite the class
Bruh World of Warcraft had better stacking buffs lmao
I'm sure an extra 3% will let me hit the next breakpoint
Ehh it’s not all bad, I like the fact that my magic has wallhacks
I should really brainburst this poxwalker
Fire staff enjoyers, what are the two most important modifier and 2 least important?
I hear that, but man the best one I have is only 70% burn. feels bad.
That's only 10% off maximum
Why does it still feel like I'm doing such low damage tho
It artificially feels worse because you don't get red kill hitmarkers if they die of burn, that much I know
I've tried it so many times, still feels bad. I'll keep trying to find a good one but it feels like nothing dies, where with a VS everything is red/blue dust lol
I find it a mobmurder weapon primarily. It's excellent at stopping a horde in its tracks
Yea if you want to see death, voidstrike is more satisfying
I'm still curios, besides burn, what other modifiers yall are prioritizing and what ones do you care less about.
Purgatus is great for making the horde stop in its tracks
So is voidstrike, but it actually kills stuff in my exp.
Voidstrike won't save your ass when there's a hundred within axing distance and you need something to stop all of them for 15 metres
Should I bother rerolling the perk on this? Also I'm not sure but a good number of ppl seem to use voidstrike and I'm not 100% sure what's good on that.
I've tried 3-4 diff purg staffs and still can't find why i'd run it over VS/Surge.
what do you guys think of the imperial edition skins
trash
If you find voidstrike more effective than purgatus just use voidstrike. It's more versatile because you have long-range capacity and if you enjoy it more there's a clear answer. It's purely personal preference
are you saying that just because its the imperial edition or because you genuinally dislike it
genuinely dislike it
i see
but that's not why I got the imperial edition anyways
What's the consensus on Surge staff perks as well? I figure stacking extra flak/carapace damage is probably wise given the increased damage the electric does to them
I knew I was going to get the OST
I would wear them but they aren't worth the £20 or whatever
I ironically only like the headpiece, but I might grab that new one that has the other mask now
dump stat for trauma and voidstrike staff?
First target is big
dang
First target is one of the best
F in chat
It is a multiplicative damage increase
Wish my first target was higher
specially for axes which only hit like 1 target
i thought cause this axe was used for the cleaving
That’s where brutal momentum turns it into the GOAT
what is a monstrosity
Anything with health bar
My mother in law
is blast radius a dump stat for voidstrike staff
ya
Big nasties. Plague Ogryn and Beast of Nurgle
so this is worth upgrading?
Only 350
sure
yeah its the best ive got
I personally don't bother with anything unless it's close to 380
never seen higher in the store (am level 30)
You will eventually
is the force sword the best weapon for us
say this had more stats., and you could allocate them anywhere. youd prob just max out the others and leave blast radius alone right?
Not necessarily. Tactical axe is very good. Force sword is mostly for Deflector blessing and the special attack
deflector blessing?
I don't use voidstrike so I wouldn't know. Personally I'd want a BIGGER bang but that's me
very rare, only for force swords: lets you block ranged attacks
aight. ill wait around for a 380 i guess
oh thats cool
does it deflect them back or no
no, just blocks
the difference between 0% and 80% blast radius is 2m
void AoE ranges 2-4m
so if a weapon doesnt have atleast 350 points in the stat allocation, just trash it?
it has extra dmg vs armored. so it feels like a wet noodle against unarmored, makes you a god against scab squads
and ofc has the control effect
yeye
there is a worst, however - trauma
i mispoke that
what is the dump stat on a trauma staff?
the staff itself
which one is that
yes.
wait whatt
that one seemed pretty good to me
big aoe
it has a cult following
considering you thought the surge was "meh", I'm going to chalk your statement up to inexperience
no worries. it has really good control, staggers anything
trauma can feel fun when you get to use it in the scenarios where it shines, other staffs just do what it does, but better
i see
i just played a game with it, sooo many maulers ragers and bulwarks/crushers
i just knocked them all over the place
whats a dumpstat
a stat thats fine being low
oh
like mobility on a gun
or if you have the blessing where you ignore hit mass, you wouldnt need the cleave targets stat
whats the dumpstat on voidstrike
there really isn't one, but if you have peril transfer, you don't need quell speed as much
the lil explosion does like no dmg and the size barely increases
all the dmg is from the orb hitting people
oh really?
yeah check it in the meat grinder
wtf is the meat grinder
testing grounds
in the psykhanium
is that like the best stats
Damn nice ass VS.
quell speed isn't as important when the rest of the staff is right
warp res
You really don't need to quell a lot with a VS esp with Transfer Peril blessing
Transfer Peril does all the quelling for you, provided you position and aim right
counterintuitively, having good warp res doesn't actually make it build significantly less peril
is the fire staff anygood
oh i see but on a voidstrike it does, becauise each ball is less
plus if you're running the warp res feat, that basically makes up for res being dump stat
true
people will keep telling it's the worst staff
because it is
but skill > stats
so use whatever you find the most success with
does anyone have a first person view of the blaze force sword skin
critcal hit damage is bad for purgatus staff right? since critting just adds more soulblaze stacks?
my teammates prioritizing my BB targets is really killing any enjoyment of this class for me
veterans have a 6th sense for shooting the exact enemy I DON'T want them to shoot
give them a PSA at the start. they might not play anything other than vet
what soulblaze stacks
err
flame staff does the stacking fire dot
and when you crit it adds 2 stacks instead of 1 yea?
i thought u need a blessing for the crit stacks
im comparing these
I really like the new chest in the shop but i also hate the pants
i thought ranged critical hit dmg doesnt do anything for purg staff
i know it can crit, but critting just adds more stacks, it doesnt make the dot itself per stack do more damage though?
so crit CHANCE i thought would be good
not crit damage
Yes, you want crit chance, not crit damage
Shop version and Melk version
seems annoying that they can have perks roll on items that literally dont even work
so blazing spirit blessing is just like innate on the purg staff?
warp batter max stacks with peril resist perk, difference between a ful charge void shot with max warp charges (13 peril gain) and not (18) not super impressive
don't know if its more pronounced on other staves, but doesn't really seem to be a big deal
I don't speak purge staff, is that good? If so, congrats lol
what is soulblaze
It's like burning, but for psyker
You apply burning effect on your enemy
More stacks of soulblaze can cause more burn damage
Anyone got anything that actually matches the new bundle chest so i can use it without those goofy pants?
zealot got nice pants that match in their goofy ass outfit i think lol
is the blue one worth the cloud radius compared to purple? Ik it's a priority stat but the other ones are maxed
Honestly i think the only good psyker outfit is the mortis one
Basically
Bruh
They really need to add a way to actually view items on your character before buying them
Instead of that stupid hologram that shows nothing
yeah absolutely
Also fix the fucking psyker headgear clipping already
i love the full penance one.. working on the last piece for the headgear
Hey can anyone show me if the styges version of the psyker hood matches the mortis gear?
This
what is up with this psyker video they tweeted. they use f ability 2 times in 15 sec but just killing horde mobs
mortis is the imperial stuff right?
Ye
yeah I can do that, let me load up the game
I still need to do most of the psyker penances since they're all terrible
The explosion one seems bad but I realize killing a monstrosity with headpop is really the painful one
Cooldown buff on 30 feats an warp battery probably
explosion one is making my suicidal
oh yeah he might have quicken or whatever true
I got out with a bang organically when learning the class lmfao, the monstrosity one is nails tho, at least organically
I guess if you have a bunch of ragers going out with a bang is fairly doable
...those count as elites, don't they?
I got it with maulers, had a crazy horde back us into a corner an i went boom whilst trying to kill other stuff, just happened to take them out at the same time
yes but make sure they dont kill you while you are mid explode... otherwise you dont ezxplode u just die
its happneed to me so many times
or i am trying to get myzelf to explode which means im not blocking and then i goi down before i can start to explode
Can always brain burst at 97% peril, keep it there then you only gotta do two to do bang
Or just hold right click
What's ADS?
Additional Delay on Staff?

Rate my fit
Sienna out of Sienna
lookin like joan of arc
❤️
I could buy some cool cosmetic stuff but at the current state I won't
I gotta see the hole catalogue before I can make an informed decision
So I just roll with the penance goggles for now until who knows how long
I like that hooded one they didn't release yet
Whole catelog, as of a few days ago anyways
If that truly is the whole catalogue then I am just gonna keep my goggles
Penance drip really is some of the best drip
I do like the backpack on this
So I dont blame you
the new regular metal skull looks pretty good with the heresy chest
Yeah it looks really sick with a beard
But my guy doesn't have one. It's reserved for my Zealot called Gesus
I also happen to like the purgatus the most so the welding goggles goes well with that choice
At least one of us can see something 
is this costume out now? or coming?
not out yet
kay
idk I like the new staff that just dropped. Not going to get to tho lol
shame its all store locked
anyone tried this? i want to see
yeah hold on
👍 
Thats such a flex on all the zealots who got that mask 
ouch no hair?
it shows hair I'm just bald
BBC
diff hair has some clipping though
bald by choice
Gives me Egypt mummy vibes ngl
don't like the pattern on the coat, everything else is good tho
Damn I really want to ge this set.
the gamer's weapon
Not perfect but ain't half bad
yeah it works
It matches the grey patches quite well
new to the game - is it acceptable to use the cosmetics that come with the imperial edition or is it just cringe. I think it looks good in combination with other stuff but idk
never seen anyone catch heat in game for cosemetics
use whatever
I'm more concerned about that fat lasgun you are holding
^^^^
yeah using the imperial stuff is fine
gets a pass
realistically no one will no outside of people you group with, whether or not you get more cosmetics
I've read that one post of trolls who refused to complete a mission until someone with cosmetics left because "they betrayed the gamers" or some stupid shit for buying cosmetics
but thats about it
most people don't care
yeah thats pretty stupid

people bought the imperial edition
which I think is fine if you did it up until now
Yeah. Def wish the shirt were red to go with the veil.
someone mentioned something like "If I see psykers with t3 gear that just means that I know they trolled their team to get the achieves" and i'm like "bruh theres LFG, and my hood also means that I beat every mission type on heresy atleast"
I think the only thing anyone has ever said to me about the penance gear in quickplay chat was they liked the goggles hood. twice.
Is the easiest way to get Malleous Montstrum to find a shield ogyrn and have it aggro a demonhost?
yep
sounds like some serious projecting lmao
Ideally ogryn in a corner, you slowly BB, and the other two keep any specials/hordes/etc. off you and ogryn
The horde is what got me when I tried sadly haha
I've found I rather enjoy a Kantrael XII rather than a Force Staff of any sort, any other Psykers feel the same way?
Bonus that you explode much less often, if not at all.
I will say you should prioritize horde clearing since the ogryn is effectively immune in the corner unless a disabler comes and screws him
I absolutely love the Gloriana Veil for my Witch Boy. I'm just bummed out that it only matches the base Penace skins and the new shirt is blue.
I mean I'd rather just run a vet if I'm using a lasgun
why not play vet then with more health and tough ness
^
what are u gaining being a gun psyker
and I don't blow myself up very much if at all with the surge staff
idk what being a psyber does for gun use that vet doesn't
just couldn't get away from elite huh? gotta use that pulse laser
how good is lucius mk II anyways, does it compete with mk12?
realistically your using an XI whatever, which is better than your BB
cuz i tried it out with buffs and it seems pretty nice now tbh
It doesn't look terrible but the colors just clash a smidge.
on demand special kills
ngl, after playing elden ring god damn the loading of this game is slow
yeah why is it so slow?
does it look good? its the only cosmetic ive seen so far that i like
Easily my favorite headpiece.
I've been opening up the game since my comment about psyker penance drip
and its still opening
breh
sounds like your computer might be too good. meta around here is having a 6 year old one 
Headcanon is that with Witch Sight a Psyker doesn't really have to use his regular eyesight and can get on by easily with the veil on.
So yes. The Gloriana Veil is currently my favorite headpiece for the Psyker. The Penance Hood is also good.
Lol I got this around 2018-19... shouldve seen the pc I had before, it ran on windows xp and I could barely run CSGO with 30 frames
I'm in
and I forgot to switch my outfit back to normal lmao
I have an old computer too with just a sata ssd and I load faster than my two friends with great pcs and m2 ssds
I am sad that the rebreatehr does not make the voice filter like other classes rebreathers do
I can check the armoury before they even finish getting in
I'm sad that they removed the voice filter from ogryn's helmet
The launcher says “please update your graphics drivers” but my game plays perfectly lmao
wait I can't buy individual pieces from the sets?
Because then I can't snipe things from far away. Voidstrike Staff isn't as powerful as its commonality.
spaghetti code
wait nvm figured it out, what a dumb way to have to do that
you can buy the individual pieces but you have to inspect the piece first
yeah
Yall like the staff?
which one
the staff is cool but the blue on it doesn't match much outside of the pack it comes with yet. looks decent with the coat and other stuff though
NE OF THEM SON GUNS FOR LIFE VETERAN INVASION
what
average vet enjoyer
🤔
def. a veteran with big ole sideburns
I bought several individual pieces from the new sets
I ain't no carny, so no striped pants for me
I just want to be bare chested with the striped pants with an axe
just quickplay like that
with a big, curly mustache?
I like the checker pants tbh
You can. Hit V on the item in the set. Then purchase it.
Trying to make the Veil work with the shirt. The Storm Witchs Service Raiment sorta makes the colors 'fit' just a smidgen better.
ye I figured it out, now I can appreciate my characters face but have a cool rebreather, time to never buy another cosmetic prob lol
That's blue.
Did they fix malleus monstronum?
emerald green maybe
More French Blue.
I love the cowl in general. Wish we had more color variety
we should get the option to edit our material and color of our clothes in the future
I'ma be pissed when they inevitably sell us a green version
It's somewhere between green and blue. Just accept it
My Brother in the Emperor.
Definitely teal, though. Fr fr.
That is NOT green or teal
this is actually true after checking the hex code, it's more green than I was expecting/thought. slightly less green than blue
Yeah, that is teal
It is not teal. It's not that green.
Its blue
So yes, teal. Though yeah,leaning towards blue more than green
What colour is hi-vis clothing?
(this is another example of people perceiving different colours)
I personally like how strongly WireSpider feels about the color, though.
Is the combat blade any good on us or is that just a Zealot meme thing
It's only good on zealot with specific feats that we don't have
So yeah, meme thing
It's definitely a strong mix of green and blue, with slightly more blue
Its fucking blue you heathens 
Yeah but that isn't teal
devs reusing assets in an mtx shop? I'm shocked
This is teal.
Ogryn chat talking about heavy bolters, Psyker chat debating armour colours
You people are heretical

I didn't say it was pure blue.
These are the real questions
It's closer to this shade.
Teal was closer than that
No, I'm getting a t4 slaughterer with bloodthirsty too 
Uh huh
Ogryns can't tell the difference between turquoise and aqumarine and think Ultramarine solely refers to a chapter of Astartes.
Fashion is what seperates the Imperium from the Archenemy.
Cosmetics are half the battle
But without Ogryn sparkhead dies to horde, so how'd you feel now smarty 
must be nice i didnt get shit
checking rn
At least when I die I'll look fabulous.
I think the closest named blue is Stillwater
well there is actually 2 force swords, that is a first
You spend more time dead than you do alive in the universe so pick what looks good
hex code #5c8690
Oh? We have new force swords?
in my melk shop I was talking about
Ah.
color arguments are always so heated
t3 deflector on one pruple. gonna get burned again if I upgrade it though 😡
ngl I was playing a game of 40k years ago and a random guy came up and started arguing about the shade of green on my buds necrons, this dude went into the discussion of refraction of light and all sorts of goofy shit
yeah I'm not
stats more important
I have a t4 deflector already actually just need the crafting system
It's actually quite a nice Laspistol. Perfect for pushing up with your team and taking potshots at heads along the way. And you get to spend more peril on BBs, which are much more of a guaranteed kill than silly force staff bolts.
nothing at melk welp guess its time to not play for another hour
Was he like, "Um excuse me, is that even citadel paint? 🤓 "
lol no but I wish
sure but what am i contributing by running laspistol
Anyway. Out of the two I think the red pants help balance it out.
Would be a lot better if I could get the shirt in red. Dx
what you mean, all you have to do is basically exploit and pick up every ammo.
yes
It's not hard to just use BB on Shooters in Cover.
I hate the red so much
Which is something I rarely see other Psykers do, which confuses me. Instead I mostly see other Psykers shoot bolts at things or try to flame them point blank, and they usually explode themselves or get shot to death in the process.
everyone looks like they're wearing PJ's
Yes exactly.
But a Psyker with a staff is inherently brain-programmed not to use anything but their staff, which is the thing I'm highlighting. I don't see Staff Psykers BB anything these days.
Maybe I'm just consistently being matched with less intelligent Psykers.
color theory doesn't make this look good
left click is pretty good though, especially on surge. it can 1 shot crit dreg trash gunners in the head on damnation. and you can get its crit pretty damn high with a good warp nexus/crit stat bar/ crit perk
maybe ur just the smartest guy
I refuse to use my staff for elites entirely lol
what difficultly u play?
Clearly.
Heresy and Damnation.
Thank you. I'm aware. Dx
I know right? So wasteful when a fully charged BB does the job much quicker, and successfully.
Staff bolts don't actually do very much damage if you check their attack breakdown.
its situational
Stagger yes, damage no.
Question spark heads. Is +flak still the way to go on your magic sticks?
not on body shots, their headshot damage is fine though
Like it is for the rest of the emperors instruments.
i BB the shit out of stuff and use is staffs . BB is amazing for taking out trash shooters in cover. especially on damnation when everything hits our lil pysker boides for like half hp
Mhm, yes, it is quite satisfying to lock a Shooter's head and slide into cover. While they panic at imminent unavoidable head-popping.
yea cuz theres 3 camo vets beside you ignoring the random trash beside them thats trying to melee you while the ranged shooters are playing duck hunt
More satisfying is watching teammates run in a straight line at Shooter squads in cover and seeing them get immediately downed and killed.
haha truth 100%
facts
they just be standing balls out and i am in cover getting blasted
Even MORE satisfying is ignoring them when they ask for help, because you're smart enough not to run out into the open against an overwatching squad of guns.
I usually leave after they die on first group
just say "useless twats"
and leave
then there is this guy
better to carry them and be like "what did we learn from this" and then leave
are you playing on diff1?
Anyone got tips on how to do "going out with a bang"? I'd like to do it with a minimal amount of griefing but I can't find a situation where an elite is at low enough health to get killed, let alone multiple.
Autogun Vets are very cool and based.
the perfect ammo count
not me, and it's on damnation
Group of Ragers.
how the hell do the shooters only do 3-5 dmg
Do ragers get one-shot by the explosion at higher difficulties?
He's running the trait that makes you take 75% less ranged damage in focus fire.
cause unwavering gives you 75% damage resistance against ranged during the ult, the ult is getting refreshed with every shooter, and every elite kill gives you massive toughness back
Veteran Sharpshooters with that one and the 30 Feat for refreshing on Shooter kills can just run into the open and gun down entire shooter groups with no issue.
why the fuck do vets in my games don't do this kind of shit
usually hiding behind the covers and doing fuck all
wtf
It's actually the feat combo I run on my own Vet... It's very nice for clearing the way ahead for the team.
It's going to be very nice when you can join a squad from Discord.
Because then we'll be able to just organize our squads much more easily and with less issues.
that's never coming
Well it should be. Missed opportunity for Fatshark if they don't.
thats the funny part actually. psykers get mad at the vets for stealing the elite bb kill, but the vet is also mad if you stole his toughness regen
vets should focus 20 shooter groups
not that one elite inbetween
Just use autogun 
if they are running a build like that guy they do, but you hit an elite every now and then to keep your toughness up too
By all means, if your BB is charged to at least 75% when the kill is taken, you still get your Warp Charge 9 times out of 10.
It happens to me quite often.
and if the head gets popped, guess what, the enemy is dead if it's a shooter, so you don't have to waste your time as a vet on it
I mean my vet is level 1 so don't bite my head off I'm just making an observation lol
if a vet would be doing that kind on movies, i'd leav all the elites to him
easy life
When a decent Agripiina Infantry Autogun drops for me (After I 30 my Psyker), then I most certainly will try one.
Until then, I do so enjoy the reliability of a Kantrael XII.
bb is situational, i actually end up more times than not using staff as a quelling tool on bb XP
I use an Agripiina Infantry on my Vet. It's incredibly reliable.
Yerp, cant fault it, MK12 is a gud gun
real haha. I rarely run into them doing that too
Thats my current autogun, not perfect by any means but good enuff
never seen a single vet carry a game tbh
only if there's 3 of them
usually it's a camo vet instead (same tier talent) and they are redirecting fire to me
I haven't played in a week and a half bc of the hoildays, what have I missed?
I've got Mind in Motion for my 20. I can reload my hands on the move.
reloading hands is so slow
Sometimes I'll go half of a mission just bursting shooters and gunners without ever switching from my hands.
Inner Tranquility at 10 and Warp Battery at 25.
Lots of Peril resistance, lots of BBs. Minimal reloading, and I can just press F for an instant reload here and there.
it's good qol but peril block is too broken not to use imo
As a Psyker, my hands are my most deadly weapon...
still too slow staff quicker
Gun.
doesnt help quell speed
If I have surge I'll left click dreg shooters and bb some depending
Yes. Staffs do help with quelling speed. But to reinforce @fluid knot 's point here...
By the time I reach 100% Peril, I can switch to a Gun and start blasting, and I'll still be getting Warp Charge Damage-augmented shots out while my Peril drops thanks to not having my hands out.
And because a Gun is not a Staff, I will not explode or be forced to reload and not be dealing damage. It is very efficient.
talking about this
Capstone skill for faster BB makes switching between gun an BB pretty much seamlessly playable too
Yes, in those cases, there are Veterans or Zealots or Ogryns dishing out enough frontline that I can just backline while moving with them.
Also its fun when something's head randomly explodes in the distance 
I do so love gathering up Warp Charges from random bystanders as such.
how am i supposed to do pick n mix btw?
Aforementioned faster brainburst capstone an the right situation
just say kinetic barrage
I dont know what they're all called offhand
now u do
I will bb shooters with kb active yeah. but doing regular ones is a waste of time too often because the vet will just shoot it anyways before it finishes
Imo you shouldnt really be using BB outside the cycle that is active
its situational
Worth? I've never used an Atrox IV
What you could kill in nearly 5s with a burst you can kill in two with a gun
Gun best for killing specials tho
can do the same with staff left click too tbh. at least with surge. just 1 shots them to the head very often
No ik its not 5s, but the point still stands, gun will do it faster
sure but you sacrifice fast horde killing
its all about tradeoffs
Nah, just use melee
melee still slower than staffs
Its not fast sure, but its totally fine for the class to do
I would rather kill the stuff liable to kill me and the rest of the team faster than the horde tbh
does BB select elites in a crowd or am I just getting lucky picking them out?
ah
so turns out that even at level 30, the trauma staff is still terrible to use
thats the tradeoff with staffs u have much faster mass horde clear but slower elite killing
is zappy boi visuals exploding eyeballs fixed yet?
I wanna use it but it kinda gives me a headache
I don't remember seeing anything about it in the last patch notes but maybe I wasn't looking close enough
surge vfx was reverted yeah
very possible a stealth fix
nice
Nah it was in patch notes mate
it was. although I can understand the thought because fatshark leaves out stuff all the time from the notes
As someone who barely uses brain burst. What would you guys recommend for the level 30 perk choice?
Could someone help my smooth brain? #psyker-class message
nice, ngl I haven't been keeping up
Pistol go Burrrrrr, rerolling the cara off it
Finally I can start my Pskyer, level 1 DRIP
I haven't used atrox really but if you want to push attack on it a lot like antax you won't get much use out of decimator
if not then it could be good
I think I remember seeing people say they liked the mk2 tac axe. but I also think it was zealots talking about it.
Thanks. I hate it
Ascendant Blaze? Assuming the Purgatus Staff adds stacks of Soulblaze, you could build up Warp Charges with it without needing to use Brain Burst.
It does indeed use soulblaze
tiberius
Good combo and pretty easy to get warp stacks
CMDR i gotta ask.. ED or Eve?
ED.
Eyyy ditto
I'd be actual dead by now if I had played Eve when it came out.
I've heard what that "game" does to people...
Thank you for the suggestion. I'm currently using Voidstrike though. I could give purgatus a try
Yeah it do be like that
run and gun on the surge staff is pretty much useless isnt it?
saw the highest rating ive ever seen on a surge staff (375), spend 2 weeks worth of mats on consecrating it to orange and i get run and gun, love it
if you are using void I'd just use kinetic barrage. it makes bb useable during it, and you can already horde clear with your staff.
Thank you. I'll give that a try
kinda yea unless u like running and spamming left click
it's already hard enough to aim while im standing still 
DED
💀
i wish it would let you shoot the lightning while sprinting, now that would be cool
and you can already charge lightning while sprinting even without run and gun
only working for the left click is a very niche use to say the least
Run an gun perk on staves kek
That'd be hilarious, people be all over that Palpatine cosplay
the only good use I can think of for it is if a good general clear staff was released like shotgun on left click for plasteel speed runs
Run and stun
Or this?

damn t4 warp nexus
The burning intensity would go from .32 to .37 . Is that seconds between ticks of soulblaze? if so that seems like an excellent tradeoff
I don't run purg really but from what I've seen them say in here I think they would like that staff a lot even with the low damage roll
the t4 warp nexus is really good for it, I know that much
Every crit deals 2 stacks of burn.
Yeah
t4 warp nexus could possibly be worth the coins anyways depending on how the blessing crafting works. I think they will be aiming to make it a lot more grindy than combining like two t2 blessings and you have a 4. who knows though
any idea what the other perk should be?
cause i think perk damage only affects direct damage
that is how I understand it to work as well so yeah probably not a huge deal since you already have the crit
I just got this from emperor's gift
nice
Think this is the highest base state emperors gift I've gotten:
Yours is as high as my trans tier
Damn, I just called it trans
Thats odd
Me when the sword is trans somehow:
does that mean a rapier, spear, scimitar, katana, etc, are cis?
It can even be held in a reverse grip to strike
Hell
Turn it into a ranged weapon, take off the pommel and throw it at the enemy
Rapiers are actually relatively easy to cut with
i did it, the emprah wanted me to
by the emprah why
its a mat farming wep for sure
Its not even fun im not gonna lie
it is
I was gonna say the same thing haha, seems like something fun to use during plasteel speed run
Feels like a squirtgun compared to everything else
Just got this off Melk random weapon. 
that one^ does not feel like a squirt gun i can assure
Not max level, but still crazy.
man
malleus monstronum chance ruined again
i think this is like the 30th time at this point
prob same amount of time lol
They really need to buff psyker
Still feels bad that I have to take a perk to make stacks if I don't wanna hold grenade out
Strong disagree. Psyker is plenty strong. Watch some of the people who stream it if you are struggling on t5.
Like going from Sienna in VT2, to this feels awkward.
I have this.. an compared to autogun an heavy lasguns its a pea shooter
Yeah, I had a BIS autopistol too, and it still did nothing. Even the trash mobs
I just personally feel like they could use some kind of buff or way to easier make stacks than have to take a perk is all I am saying.
oof that base
whats finesse on the force sword do
finesse on anything increases attack speed and crit
it says if you inspect it. crit/headshot damage and attack speed
Yup
mobility usually
Its accuracy
psyker is better off ignoring its class defining mechanic. I think that merits a balance pass
Thats the biggest problem
I hope they optimize the game soon
ingmae chat broken i cnaht caht in game ???
This
If that autopistol was accurate, it would probably be good
in a year... or two
think your keyboard is broken
what are the top 2 psyker staffs rn?
SS VS
Lmao.
Anything but trauma.
that was a good bait
mean really took a second to fix that
Passive charges, BB on hit and a power sword/Rashad combat axe and a surge staff. Other then that you can bring any traits but you will always contribute to the team. The CC is undeniably the best role for the Psyker. Unfortunately everyone else can do Elite killing and horde clear far better then we can. yes you can fill in a role, but its better to have one of the other classes doing it whilst you do your CC
Was too busy thinking of purg builds. 
i cant play with the surge anymore it does nothing but cc so its worthless if your team cant do damage
should have said void to trigger staff lickers my man
Not the sort to bait, but oh boi. Definitely not intended.
best cc class in game is also the squishiest pfft
Oof. This chat. Go watch one of the streamers who play psyker. I've never seen so much wrong info.
what does wounds mean. Like this blessing says +1 wounds
streamers arent much better
Dont even tell me this motherfucker dont look dank
Also what are the best curios for pysker
I see people say this a lot but I always have the opposite experience - tunnel vision people who only focus on damage who need protecting
Hurr durr MR Streamer plays it this way so it must be right. Unfortunately the number and break points dont lie. The other classes are better at killing elites and clearing hordes then the psyker is. The pysker can do it but why do a subpar role.
what legging is that
watch successful damnation 5 runs instead :V
what does the skull helmets look like on characters?
thats how you learn
Uhh not sure, one out the requisitions vendor i think
he dont tho
sibling aint got the drip
siblings please
ill probably die waiting for them to add this helmet
Both the premium 2400 outfits look worse than the 800 one.
Motherfuckers got their heads in a toliet bowl.
All the premium outfits look worse then the penance chest. Some of the individual helmets are good though
this is the dank
Penancce and 400 acquilla helmet
the penance set is dank af, but pick n mix breaks me
I'd say, change warp charges to give increased damage but only to BB. Then throw some feats that give something impactful but varried as an auxillary benefit to the charges
if by "dank" you mean "wet and smelly and generally unpleasant", then yes.
bro look like hes on crack
is the fire staff good
I will forever be at 4/5...
warp's a helluva drug
same
Got pick n mix on t5, I hate shotgunners but love them at the same time.
if psyker is exclusively pushed to use brain burst then that will be terrible for the fun of the class
I think I said this the last time too but.. looking like mannfred von carstein face wise
no not at all, don't use it (so only i can)
PSA; if you see a green curio at 79 at a glance in shop, it might be either 17% toughness or 21% hp, they both start at that number
when can we expect a patch btw?
sometime after new years
Purg is easily best in slot. But you need a great roll on it. Surge is decent at any roll.
thanks, been trying to learn to recognize the high base roll curios but i didn't know values
What weapons are people using in the meantime waiting for a force sword? Feel like ive been with the Rashad combat axe for so long D:
how do i use the electricity staff right, he it feels like a peashooter to me but i know its one of the best
antax, and some folks seem to like the dueling sabre
its all cc
its damage is split among targets but its mainly CC
I have a surge staff with 80% in everything but crit, shreds like crazy but is so boring to use.
knife and duelist sword
all cc nothing else, the damage is trash so dont try killing with it
You can stun everything except bosses. Whether its ragers mid combo or Bombers mid dive.
cc?
crowd control
cc= crowd control
Crowd Control. It stuns everythibg
It does ok damage vs flak and carapace. left click is ok too compared to the other same ones if you get the crit high
i see
@noble sluice Nah, a great roll on the staff and you'll kill stuff pretty fast, even on t5. Obviously not as fast as other staves. Esp if you got crit blessing.
deletes gunner squads assuming you can get close lol
so its just the stun that carries
yeah
damage is actually not bad, though you need to know what things actually get hurt by the shock and what dont (jesus dogs are tanky)
its more important to alternate between firing with certain targets too (if you dont have allys helping you)
Got a shit surge roll but it still carries hard in teams on highest difficulty.
people splitting up probably, ai director punishing
so if youre just spamming right click does that mean that you should focus on looking for good warp resistance
this
on what...?
u sure bout that one
the lightning staff
Wonder when they are going to fix the left mb attack aim bug of the staves. It's been there since release...
With 76% and right click into a little quell I can maintain it in combat until ability coolsdown to flush a large chunk of peril
you dont need much more than 60% you just really want quelling maxed out
I hope they don't fix ainmation canceling on left mb. It actually makes it viable haha
There isnt an aim bug. The projectile is delayed after you click. Everything else is hitscan
run and gun, PFFT
it's fun but they probably will, they have been fixing what they can in that regard already
If they fix it they better up the atk spd of staves
You left click and move the projectile spawns during your movement. so it looks like its not at the crosshair. Then you add in flight time and it looks even worse.
we can hope, yeah
sorry but we have found that psykers are over performing and are nerfing the over all damage of staves, we are also giving vet a new set of guns
You should be able to adjust your aim until the projectile gets fired right now it will shoot at the position you clicked the mb. In the testing area it works but not in a match
I more expect a hotfix that says "Turns out psykers were actually getting staves and force swords in their shop, this has been fixed. All guns, all axes"
A piece of my heart dies everytime I see a psyker pick up ammo
it would also help surge left click a lot if dregs got suppressed normally, since you don't care about scabs already and the anim cancel left click is actually decent at clearing dregs out and has good suppression
my need is greater than yours
I played with a gun psyker yesterday in heresy. Still supremely confused why anyone would use a gun on a Psyker.
Each of which have rapid fire capability and can one shot bosses
At least psykers cant get any worse
@naive dawn Staves perform so vastly differently based on rolls, compared to other weapon types, everyone has such different ideas about them as a result.
Don't say that or Fatshark will give us epilepsy again...
If it's foggy enough, I still get those crazy flashes
there are some guns that perform exceedingly well, and in some instances team comps dont use ammo so the extra tempo a gun can give (because staves are 3x slower killing things than any other gun/weapon) is a help
Had to turn down my graphic settings
Hey, that light did more damage than the surge staff ever had
Yea I personally feel like thats a trap build tbh. If you want a guns to be your focus play the veteran, You get much more out of them and you have a better base character to work from.
Psyker isnt for guns.
we don't get boring passive nerfs, we get spicy epileptic ones
new patch note preview, bb blast effect. then change it to vfx section on the actual notes
The surge bug was actually kind of nice, because it encouraged everyone to try new staves. I love trauma despite previously thinking it was terrible.
Psyker's staffs arent exactly worth using for what its worth imo, all of them have distinct weaknesses that personally, I feel outweigh any benefit
im still butt hurt over that
UNBLEAVEBLE 400 hours in pschyer and never seen a surge void staf blessing wtf
even a little stagger so I could alt fire a mauler in a pack of melee chaff would have been great
yeah me too
yeah that was like the guarded position too. hoping - aoe damage. expectation - a little aoe stagger to make it safer. actual patch - vfx
Psyker isnt exactly capable of being a worse class so long as fatshark isnt dumber than themselves at least, so we can hope for buffs
the benefit is faster peril quelling and not needing to use ammo which in most games doesnt really matter
Exactly
They are so gonna release the new subclass and forget about this one
hey if the new one is good thats fine
watch them release them one at a time vet first then shouty then slab then us
it makes me sad because this psyker would work perfectly as a buffer mage style class
Yeahh
But to be fair, you can barely notice like 90% or more of the talents in actual gameplay
they acknowledged that bug report thread on the "bug" of non force stuff passive quelling faster too. so we got that to look forward to maybe
Literally the most impactful talent I can think of is toughness regen for psyker, nothing else hugely helps
when they are even working correctly
And because it's good they'll nerf it in the first patch and say something like we don't want psyker to use his special so often
FR LMFAO
Theyre hardly even decent on paper
Much less in practice
this could go both ways tbh
Literally the staves themselves make psyker
meanwhile vet has talests that lets the whole team see specials and another that gives them no up time on their ult lol
yeah it could, true
Literally every talent vet has exponentially increases his value while you can barely tell if your psyker is level 5 or level 30
How is borderline infinite block not impactful? It's the only way to win t5 pubs reliably and rez your dumbass teammates in horrible spots.
this just soundns like they're taking away the axe peril block
Wiping out a shotgun elite pack with the 30 BB perk is pretty impactful too
Or gunners
that last talent is good
did they acknowledge the hand shaking on revolver as a bug or not? revolver on high peril makes you look like a crack addict
its not just axe but maybe
I said 90%, that leaves 10%
they had a thread about it that was yeah but I didn't click on it
seems like the type of thing thats intented, makes sense to me at least
Then you have the 15% cooldown reducation on team elite kill
which means more lvl 30 perk
That's a crazy amount of bbs
PLEASE POST CRASHES AND ERRORS IN THE ‘TECHNICAL SUPPORT’ CATEGORY INSTEAD We kindly ask that you complete the questions below. With this information, we can add it to our database for investigation. Issue Description: Psyker seems to gain suppression or low stability with the stub revolver at high peril. It makes it almost impossible to hit...
Also bugged right now. If you're out of stamina melee hits will stun you and then you take damage. Even though it should take peril.
And yet none of which really makes psyker that much better than a level 20 anyone else imo
yes, however why would it not work the same on all the other weapons, revolver is a "for fun" weapon that works EXTREMELY well with psy XP
got me there, thought it was all guns
@safe mountain Never run into that, kind of hard to honestly.
LOL THEY DONT EVEN KNOW
yeah its silly
Thanks for whoever posted the video!
haha I did notice you made the thread
@elfin roost How is being able to become near immortal by holding block not "much better" lmao. People really don't use that feat enough. I rarely see psykers abusing that to save/rez teammates in bad spots.
And then infinite BB range and super fast BBs for killing ranged units nuking your team.
That's huge
Spamming push attack in a corner while your teammates kill everything is pretty nice. Can solo hold of a horde.
Could just go ogryn at base, veteran, OR ZEALOT AT BASE for the same potential 90% of the time
And they actually provide value other than that
I have literally no idea what you are talking about lmao. I can't imagine how poorly you play psyke.
The only time an infinite block is useful is when you can actually reach allies fast enough to revive them
I like laspistol special attack.
Its depressing how you cling on to a so obviously undertuned class and keep trying to imply its not just good but the best
its 12 and 18% damage respectively at full charges
yes... full charges give you what can be charitably called a perk which you have to baby sit
buffing it from 3% -> 5% per charge can make it actually worth while for psy to want to baby sit it, it would cause BB to finally hit thresholds into being useful and make guns feel more impactful
I have a lvl 30 zealot with a stacked bleed build. And I've played enough of the others. I'm well aware of how it compares.
Warp Copium.
works really well with inner tranquility and kinetic barrage
Then you must be getting into those situations a lot with psyker if thats such a big thing
Well yes, I only play t5 and avoid low intesity cause it's coma inducing
eh? i run high peril builds so inner tranquility is a nerf in my book and i havent tested kinetic barrage so idk how that thing scales
everyone runs "high peril" builds
Psykers arent useless but they certainly arent anywhere near the top 3 in my opinion
theres no such thing as a low peril build unless ur using gun or something
high peril generation i should say, i need it for toughness regen :V
inner tranquility slows that down which is actively harmful XP
Ogryn no.1. Fite me. Oh wait you cant because puny human 
The two biggest issues of t5; Ranged hordes, and Getting overwhelmed by just a huge dump of enemies and elites. Psykers are literally made for those scenarios.
have you tried inner tranquility with a trauma staff now that its been fixed?
but veteran is also made for that but better
this may be a difficult request but could I get a screenshot of each staff with really good stats? I just kinda want to have them all so I know what to strive for when im looking at staffs (IE what stats should be high vs what should be low)
wdym now that its fixed its still as bad as ever
It's situational, there are plenty of times when one is more useful than the other.
Which is how it should be balanced
inner tranq was broken to slow down quell speeds, its been fixed now and running 6 charges makes it so you just ALWAYS have everything up XP
If the ranged fire is so heavy the vet can't even peak out then he's worth jackshit
BB don't care about LOS
the damage profile is the same but technically surge because of crit. leaving out purgs unique one
1 moar dayyyy 
jesus
Thats a big one.
25 missions a day for... I can't even remember how long
i'm going insane lmao
But have to finish by end of year
didnt know that but still trauma still generates a ton and its aiming is abysmal and so is its range and you have to be pinpoint precise
theres a lot more bad with trauma than just peril so its still pretty mid
so for surge staff your job is crowd control because of its stun. Whats voidstrike good for?
is pyskinetics wrath bugged?
Long range ad clear
try it, its not good but its fun, like revolver
ad
Voidstrike is probably the worst on t5. It's great for lvling thogh
hordes
i have tried it its not fun at all
its range and aiming are the worst offenders for me
not that I know of. what problem did you notice?
is t5 damnation
yeah
just dont notice any difference in missions no matter my peril
i see
the 6 charge inner tranq nonsense? ight
whats the best on damnation? Surge?
no life edition
surge (elite stun) or void (hoard clear)
Purg from what I've seen. Surge is the safest and doesn't require good rolls. Trauma is a mixed bag, but is by far the most entertaining.
yes its still garbage and utility is low compared to other staffs
In my opinion Purge staff 1000% unless you have a dedicated flamethrower that gets a good amount of ammo
it will be hard to notice in general unless you hit a breakpoint
You can still stunlock pretty much everything and knock dogs off teamates, the only exception is mutants but they're not typically that big of a deal from my experience
i rarely if ever run out of ammo on my flamer pfft (barely dropping 50%)
