true but

#

specials and elites 10% per kill while as 30% over 5s after one kill per elite and special

#

no?

still hearth
#

Yeah but if you kill several at once

rapid flicker
#

if

still hearth
#

Lets say you kill 3 with DoT

#

5-1 gives 30% instantly

#

5-2 gives 30% over time

#

Or wait

#

Other way around?

rapid flicker
#

idk

#

i’m high rn

still hearth
#

Either way

#

Lmao

#

Fair

#

One gives more Toughness from hordes but is less on single target and the other more on single target but less instantly

restive bay
#

just use an axe

rapid flicker
#

i think the 30% overtime helps me solo lobbies

#

to where i can kill specials in succession without help

#

in*

#

and resort to my force sword

restive bay
#

its so overpowered

#

I love it

rapid flicker
#

i like the force sword

#

does big dams when you heavy special attack

#

but i do have a godroll axe idk if i’ll like it though

#

so i don’t use it

restive bay
#

its like chopping trees

rapid flicker
#

but i burn the trees most of the time

#

i rarely take out my melee

#

only if there’s an elite in my face

modest edge
#

whats this

rapid flicker
#

illumanati

restive bay
#

confirmd

still hearth
#

The fact that Force Sword push attack basically staggers anything in the game is the primary reason I use it atm

rapid flicker
#

same

#

staggers elites

#

or the force attack does idk if the block does

still hearth
#

The push attack does, not the shove

#

Terms in this game tbh

#

Suck my

rapid flicker
#

i mean the force sword special attack stuns then

#

them

still hearth
#

Oh yeah

#

The block push attack knocks ragers and maulers on their ass though

rapid flicker
#

do you meta quell by dodging to keep pace while quelling or just something i do

still hearth
#

That's why you take Fsword too, yeah

#

Though I run Fqword + Gun so I quell faster with gun

#

And if I run staff I usually quell with it anyway

restive bay
#

quelling with the fsword reminds me of Lo Wang

rapid flicker
#

faster quell speed with staff no?

leaden dune
#

staff also cleanses faster

still hearth
#

But gun quelling is nice

rapid flicker
#

do you think they’ll raise the lvl cap and if they do how you think they’ll do it?

still hearth
#

On items? Probably similar to VT2 I'd assume

deft fiber
#

Like 5 years later, if game survive.

rapid flicker
#

no like character lvl

still hearth
#

Nah

#

Seems unlikely

rapid flicker
#

is 30 default lvl cap on VT?

still hearth
#

From when I last played it still was but that's years ago

rapid flicker
#

i think they should add a prestige system

#

or a rank system

#

after lvls

#

so there’s still progression

deft fiber
#

They should make a game functional.

restive bay
#

or add stats and heatmaps

rapid flicker
#

it functions

#

barley

still hearth
restive bay
#

customize the guns in depth

still hearth
#

Remove guns

restive bay
#

lol dice

rapid flicker
#

like ranked missions

#

could you get more difficult than damnation?

restive bay
#

interplanetary missions

rapid flicker
#

without it just being bs

still hearth
#

More enemies

#

More damage

restive bay
#

srs sam size bosses

rapid flicker
#

more bosses too

restive bay
#

like titans

rapid flicker
#

LOL

#

dawg we dyin

#

should’ve called in sick that day on the mourningstar

restive bay
#

LOL

rapid flicker
restive bay
#

more tentacle bosses

#

cuz rn we just poking them on the walls

rapid flicker
#

i want one eyed plague bearers charging at me with dull axes

restive bay
#

or they pick up their friends to throw at you

rapid flicker
#

that’d be awesome

#

do people at fat shark have to play the lvls before they make them to see if they can beat it like in geometry dash before you can publish a lvl you created

still hearth
#

Nah.

rapid flicker
#

whack

still hearth
#

But I think they should all have to have played the levels

#

I don't care if they beat them though

rapid flicker
#

i care if i can beat itKEKW_ogryn

#

what’s the hardest lvl you think @still hearth

#

i’ll run that shit

still hearth
rapid flicker
#

i’ll do it on high intensity

still hearth
#

Unless you have the right setup the last section is just nasty.

#

One of the sandmaps has been wrecking us lately though

#

The underground lab one

#

When its the collect powercell section

#

It always spawns so many snipers and gunners

rapid flicker
#

is there any character goals you’ve been trying to get?

still hearth
#

And everyone I play with is a Zealot

rapid flicker
#

or you have everything

#

or have enough that you’re satisfied with

#

like i want a bauble but I need to play more certain types of missions so its wtv

still hearth
#

I don't do penances

rapid flicker
#

like 50 assassination runs

still hearth
#

Unless I do them by accident

rapid flicker
#

what’s you’re goal been

#

playing darktide

still hearth
#

Get materials and play DT

rapid flicker
#

same

#

that new lvl has a good boss room to do that stupid pysker penace

#

penance*

deft fiber
#

Idk, making goals instead of enjoying gameplay just isn't feels right. l4d doesn't have any goal or progression and it still great game with average daily online 3 times bigger than DTKEKW_ogryn

rapid flicker
#

killing is fun!

#

but i like a challenge

gilded cloud
#

Yay, got my first purge. idk what the average values are for the burn and cloud but these seem really good (for me anyways at level 15 and getting my first one)

rapid flicker
#

pretty dogshit

#

but good!!

#

i’m jk it’s pretty good for lvl 15

rapid flicker
#

2 or 3?

deft fiber
rapid flicker
#

i just realized that i’m not gonna want to play with my other purging psyker homies if it means better team synergy

gilded cloud
rapid flicker
#

stress test on high intensity lvl 3 mission

#

see if it claps

gilded cloud
#

so far I do not like it much

rapid flicker
#

prolly cuz it’s shit

#

blessings and perks help a lot too

#

but Edax is right

#

you’ll get the full spectacle when you’re lvl 30

rapid flicker
still hearth
#

I used stuff before level 30 and people said they're good

#

But they don't get good until they have good base ratings

#

And feats

#

And sometimes blessings

#

For Zealot the heavy sword is mediocre but it has a blessing that almost doubles its damage.

#

And there's a few other cases like that.

#

Brutal Momentum makes axes not feel awful against hordes.

gilded cloud
rapid flicker
gilded cloud
#

idk i like long range more too. Psyker has BB but it is so slow so the staff or guns compensate for it too but the purge just seems way too short range

rapid flicker
#

you need higher lvl staff

#

also

#

how you play matters

gilded cloud
#

yeah, for now, I will stick with void

rapid flicker
#

i hug walls and door frames

#

because less range

wet belfry
#

No cloud radius = no range

rapid flicker
#

but yeah

#

youre range is bad vs a higher lvl staff

gilded cloud
#

ofc yeah

rapid flicker
#

it melts blobs of enemies it’s satisfying

#

i’ll kill like 2 bulwarks 4 ragers 2 gunners all funneling into a doorway

#

plus the horde

gilded cloud
#

So the secondary attack is basically like refueling your gas and when you use it, releasing it and attacking right? Whereas the primary is just a quick little amount of flame

rapid flicker
#

yea

mighty pike
#

Purgatus has a range of 15 metres, specifically

still hearth
#

The VFX is a lie.

#

Only the first shot does anything

rapid flicker
#

true

still hearth
wet belfry
#

The primary is basically just used to CC

gilded cloud
#

So... Is it possible with the right stats, perks, or blessings, to channel it to full and be able to just do infinite flames (until peril is maxed)?

rapid flicker
#

i use it to rng tick abuse

#

no you run out of gas faster than you peril

#

at least i’ve not seen a way

still hearth
#

You can get faster charge time from blessings right?

#

That's about it

rapid flicker
#

seems like a unicorn to a purge user

still hearth
#

But nothing should be able to touch you from the direction you're flaming (aside from Bulwark or Crushers)

#

Even between charges.

rapid flicker
#

ragers

#

they’ll blitz you

still hearth
#

Just shout them

gilded cloud
#

Mutants

still hearth
#

Bleeh

wet belfry
#

Just dodge backwards

rapid flicker
#

yeah

still hearth
#

Okay anything you can stagger

#

Can't touch you

wet belfry
#

Do dodge crouch technique.

still hearth
#

Happy

#

I think ragers while they're not attacking can be perma staggered by a good purge?

rapid flicker
#

but i play damnation so opening flame attack fully charged on a group of ragers and bulwarks then special and repeat

gilded cloud
#

Seems like when you kill something with the purge tho, you might not get red hit indicator for death right?

Or am I just not seeing it? Cause I assume the burn is what kills them, not the damage of the attack itself which is a different Stat

rapid flicker
#

burn stat is different than the dmg stat

still hearth
#

Damage only affects the actual beam damage and stagger afaik.

#

Nothing with the DoT which is the primary damage you do

rapid flicker
#

which is still good for unit dmg

still hearth
#

The thing with the DoT is that it scales exponentially.

#

I mean 16 DPS compared to 100+ with DoT

#

Though I wonder if the damage application stat is how many times it does its damage per second. Just like the Burn stat.

rapid flicker
#

also

still hearth
#

So you'd do like 16x3 with max damage

rapid flicker
#

@gilded cloud there’s a head burst tick while you roast enemies

#

so you can light attack stun lock specials

#

and tick abuse a head burst

#

to insta kill

#

and there’s a way to light attack faster by spamming the quell button

#

but i’ve been bad at it recently lol

still hearth
#

On purge?

rapid flicker
#

yeah

still hearth
#

Hmm

#

How much faster

rapid flicker
#

pretty fast

#

lol

#

like 2 attacks a second maybe

#

to tick abuse a head burst

still hearth
#

That still seems worse than using the secondary, unless you can't.

rapid flicker
#

only rlly use it for stray specials

#

or elites

#

you could do it to bosses but i’d rather max staff burn than light attack a boss

#

you still get a head burst tick just not as often

#

helps though in a pinch to light attack super fast to kill something quickly

#

better than maxing your staff out and burning them imo

#

on harder difficulties anyways

#

cuz more hp

#

you’d be surprised

#

light attack is more handy than you think

rapid flicker
#

from recollectionKEKW_ogryn

still hearth
gilded cloud
rapid flicker
#

as long as the heretic live no more

rapid flicker
#

pretty sure

#

why psyker has better burn class i think

still hearth
#

10% chance to brain burst on any hit

#

And DoT counts as hits

#

Psyker definitely has better support for burn than Zealot

#

Which is probably why Zealot flamer is stronger base

#

Aside from the fact that Zealot can burn crushers

rapid flicker
#

it triggers more frequently on separate attacks

still hearth
still hearth
gilded cloud
still hearth
rapid flicker
#

like you’re more likey to get a head burst by light attacking multiple times than holding a fully charged staff on an enemy

still hearth
#

But yes, it should basically always be on cooldown

still hearth
rapid flicker
#

i’ve seen it

#

no need to

gilded cloud
still hearth
#

But its still good

#

15s is not that long

rapid flicker
#

i’ve had 3 head bursts in quick succession on ticks

still hearth
#

You can also get double BB procs

rapid flicker
#

by light attacking

#

procs is the word

#

couldn’t remember for the life of me

gilded cloud
still hearth
#

So you can get instant 2 BBs.

marsh token
#

Hit Enemy with BB. Get 10% Chance to get a free second BB

rapid flicker
#

so spamming light attack for a quick bb proc can double into two quick bb procs

#

and you eliminated the two ragers running at you

#

yay!

#

in no time at all

#

maybe i’ll do some testing to further study these game mechanics

#

but from what i’ve said and seen it works

gilded cloud
#

And how quickly do the flames/burn damage? Once every second? Less? More?

rapid flicker
#

there’s no second they aren’t taking damage

#

they’re taking burn dmg between seconds lol

deft fiber
rapid flicker
#

so a lot of burn

deft fiber
#

Thing is that Purgatus kill not with the dmg, but with Soulblaze dot. And Dot doesn't affected by Burn stat afaik. It's just independent timer.

rapid flicker
#

or bb proc

deft fiber
#

Well, it's just an addition to actual built in staff mechanic.

rapid flicker
#

well you’re right

#

most of the time the DoT will kill enemies

#

but fully charging your purge staff and blazing a door way of specials and elites the dmg shines

viral lotus
#

If only one of them staffs was on the shop rotation...

rapid flicker
#

i kill a damnation reaper with 3 fully charged staff attacks while he’s stunned

deft fiber
#

Each tick apply DoT, more you stack, more dmg you deal. Crits apply 2 dot stacks instead of 1. So this is a reason why you want build Purgatus for crits. Dmg is the lowest portion of dmg.

rapid flicker
#

and cant do shit

#

so i have time to charge it that many times

empty dome
#

what's y'alls favorite level 5 talent

rapid flicker
#

feat?

#

if you’re lvl 5 it won’t matter that much

#

but the top one

#

idk what it’s called

viral lotus
#

I use the one that gives you toughness for lowering peril

#

Because that's what I'm doing 90% of the time anyway

rapid flicker
#

get a staff with good warp resistance

#

what staff do you use

#

cuz idek

viral lotus
#

Whichever one's in the store and is an upgrade honestly

still hearth
viral lotus
#

Currently surge though

still hearth
rapid flicker
#

pretty good tip that not a lot of ppl know

empty dome
rapid flicker
#

asking the real questions

still hearth
#

So yeah passive as well

rapid flicker
#

you can only assume

#

but do we know indefinitely

viral lotus
#

Means you'll get toughness on doing your F as well

rapid flicker
#

which one do i have active?

#

as my lvl 5 feat

viral lotus
#

I mostly use it as a panic button, like Mercenary Kruber

still hearth
ornate hamlet
# rapid flicker and you eliminated the two ragers running at you

in this scenario i use light attack from purg staff to stun both of them followed by a quick melee weapon swap + 1 light attack then swap back to purg staff for another quick light attack then swap back to melee wep for quick light attack.. repeat

this is very effective on certain specialists and elites (dogs too)

#

i use axe btw, for that ~200+ damage per light attack

empty dome
#

oh that's pretty good

rapid flicker
#

how effective is the axe against damnation ragers?

#

i don’t use it but i have one i could use

ornate hamlet
#

well you're burning them too, over time, from the purg staff, and each light attack from axe is ~200+ damage each swing base damage

still hearth
rapid flicker
#

switching to my melee is last resort for me

#

i always gotta keep the flames on

#

to control the fuckers behind the ragers

ornate hamlet
ornate hamlet
#

it's also not doing anything for toughness regen using melee

rapid flicker
#

true

ornate hamlet
#

but yeah, i find it's just convenient sometimes

rapid flicker
#

force sword attack though counts as warp weapon kill

restive bay
#

wat

ornate hamlet
#

if you prefer force sword you could use it, but it's damage is trash compared to axe unless you're using special attack

rapid flicker
#

i never don’t special attack with it

ornate hamlet
#

gotcha

restive bay
#

ah

ornate hamlet
#

that could work too

rapid flicker
#

otherwise im flinging around a nail filer

restive bay
#

thats pretty accurate

rapid flicker
#

but now a warp infused nail filer…KEKW_ogryn

restive bay
#

its a bitchslap+

still hearth
#

Alright another fun macro for purge

#

Is to swap from melee to purge, shoot, swap back

rapid flicker
#

let’s see it

still hearth
#

It's very hard to get the timing down

rapid flicker
#

my special activation key for weapons is a button on my mouse

#

so while i pull the sword out it’s already warped up

still hearth
rapid flicker
#

interesting

#

idk if i’d do it but it looks like it works

rapid flicker
still hearth
#

I just don't use it

#

Sedition border is the best.

and i ain’t got nothin better to do

cyan notch

thats the malice border

still hearth
#

Isn't the first one Sedition

#

Then its Malice, then Damnation?

off topic- but funny- all the class chats in the discord are in line with how you think the chat would be

rapid flicker
#

you only use it to stagger and then chop?

#

i don’t want you on my T5 teamHeresy

pliant junco
#

secondary for hordes, primary for the rest, like shooters etc

#

faster to use f sword

rapid flicker
#

okay agreed

rapid flicker
#

no need to swords unless elite

#

but you can still bb proc elites

#

but i wouldn’t only light attack them lol

pliant junco
#

vs elites only patrol F > fsword

#

or secondary and fsword

rapid flicker
#

i burn them as much as i can before they get close to me then i F

#

then force sword heavy attack

#

because there’s time

#

and then switch back

pliant junco
#

with fsword with good rolls you can two shot anything under elite special

rapid flicker
#

ou yeah

gilded cloud
#

Is it just animation... Or when you do the secondary attack with the Surge staff... Do you actually need to hold the lightning and not switch weapons or primary attack? Idk if it's just the animation. Holding for a second or so or if it's continually dealing damage and switching early ruins it

pliant junco
#

and by two shot i mean with lights

#

no heavy

rapid flicker
#

nah i’m jk

#

idk i just rarely switch weapons

rapid flicker
#

by going to the training room

gilded cloud
rapid flicker
#

test*

gilded cloud
rapid flicker
#

you can see every dmg counter in the training area

#

so light something up with it and switch your weapons and see if they still taking dmg or wtv

#

i don’t play surge so i couldn’t tell you

#

tried and didn’t like it

#

or didn’t like it “as much”

still hearth
#

So you can do more damage faster if you swap

#

It seems to reduce the stagger though

Emperor fforgive but that Shred stacking on melee for staffs is so dirty fun to use. Bad part of it - t3 shred is only on weapons i don'l like

Shitty systems

I think plasteel rates could be doubled with how it is currently

The progression system is really bad.

mighty pike
#

They must have pivoted in development so many times the rotation is powering their electricity

cyan notch
#

or both

#

ideally both

ornate hamlet
whole wharf
#

Definitely both, if this is how they want to keep the item system.

#

Otherwise it's just inconvenient and inconsistent RNG hunting.

ornate hamlet
#

can count on the itemization system to continue being boring as shit and not rewarding of the player's time
ie - adding run n gun to every staff you do

#

watch they'll probably not even allow re-bless if you redid perks on the weapon already 😄

whole wharf
#

Run n gun on every staff and precognition on every melee weapon, yep.

ornate hamlet
#

grind missions like crazy just so you can get the same useless as shit bless every time

#

and another ruined weapon in the inventory

#

it kinda reminds me of those games that let you "enhance" weapons to +20 or whatever, and keep failing and lowering the enhancement down
so you grind and grind, just to watch all your hard work be for nothing once you're at the enhancement NPC

whole wharf
#

Lets not forget the item shop, nothing more exciting than waiting an hour for a reset in rotation just for it to consist of mostly garbage items.

ornate hamlet
#

right

whole wharf
ornate hamlet
#

that's your first taste as a new player of how shit the whole itemization system will be

#

and the fact that getting a "gift from the emperor" from running a mission isn't even a guarantee, and 99% of the time it's actual shit, with like 10% on wep damage stat

#

as if the random base stats on weps wasn't stupid enough

#

and the fact that higher rarity items aren't even actually inherently stronger, in fact you're more likely to find GREY items with higher base stats

whole wharf
#

I heard that emperor gifts are limited per week too? Could just be a rumor but... Doesn't sound too out of the ordinary.

ornate hamlet
#

want to run weekly missions to get special currency to buy "legendary" gear? guess what! the shop almost never refreshes AND it's full of low base stat trash every time!

cyan notch
#

cuz fuck you

ornate hamlet
#

it's pathetic honestly

#

fatshark just doesn't respect player's time spent trying to gear up

and the level of NERF they smacked our class with from beta to release was fucking insane

want gear? get your 20 per week and check melk shop daily then just camp shop every hour

it really is

#

i dont mind the current system, as long as we get the blessing crafting stuff

ornate hamlet
#

dude the perk system isn't even really that significant either honestly, there's only a few perk selections that actually matter

#

many perk level selections really aren't that significant

leaden dune
#

This feels pretty good tbh

#

yea but they said fuck you one is locked

leaden dune

thinking of upgrading it but im not even sure what blessing would be optimal

ornate hamlet
# leaden dune

i used to play surge all the time, but when i switched to purg i never looked back

leaden dune

oh I know I prefer purgation but sometimes I wanna use different feats

ornate hamlet

just play purg staff it's better for pretty much everything except for pox bursters and packs of ranged enemies

Does blessing "All or Nothing" do anything useful on Axes?

cyan notch
#

sometimes you wanna have fun with certain combinations

strange wigeon
#

and the whole itemization is so RNG dependant that you can't even try out some builds if the shops/emp gifts don't smile upon you. 100 hours on psyker and I haven't gotten a single purgatus staff in that time, had to try out the build a month after launch with the worst stats imaginabile

since this game doesn't respect my time invested into it, i cheat on it

there's some really just completely trash series

Aside from buggy stuff and the chain weapons snagging your camera most melees are fine

there's more tho
like, in front of MK II it'll say a name, and i've noticed if it doesn't say Rashad it's far inferior on damage compared to Rashad in the MK II series for some reason, i don't have any clue why

and it's not just a base stat roll being worse, it's like.. actually higher on damage value but still way less damage on the numbers

Atrox mkII is a different weapon.

I think Rashad has bugged hit boxes

#

For certain headshots

#

And Achlys cleave chops are only on their H1

ornate hamlet
#

but after first hit, seems like i get less headshots than i should

#

i think it's the "first target" code, fatshark messed it up or something

It's not a bugged hitbox, the game just prioritises torso over heads for certain weapons.

Tried Rashad II and compared it to Anthox MK V thorough my biased perception.
I like MK V more - it's hits always hit where i want them to hit. Not the case with Rashad for me... Maybe just not used it enough

#

I'll never understand why people main Mk. 2 CAxe or any Tactical Axe when the Mk. 5 exists, unless its just for a change of pace

mighty pike
#

its because i dont know the difference

#

and the tactical axes are good in their own right. ive got a good mark whatever that has some good perks and its my personal faovurite

summer prairie
#

because one of the tactical axes is probably better dps

idle bay
manic needle
#

I take it back, there are some builds you could set up out there with Decimator/Shred blessings to buff your secondary weapon/BB

#

But I dont like having to rely on such a rigid rotation

#

That explains the Tactical Axes but not the Mk. 2. What's the appeal?

mighty pike
#

tactical axe strikes are faster and therefore you get more leeway with blocking for horde control

manic needle
#

The Mk. 5 attacks dont have to be faster because of the push counterattack, which makes you very safe when using it

mighty pike
#

🤷

manic needle
#

Plus having actual cleaving attacks means you do less work for more

mighty pike
#

i dont play at the difficulties that kind of extra stuff is totally required for so i dont know, perosnally

manic needle

I love this series for how it breaks down predatory monetization schemes in modern video games

Something like this, but usualy easier - since they packed closer and every shot from LMB supresses the living crap out of them so it's safe to charge them

Well hey there's Warp FLur- oh...

Yeah its pretty much just Warp Nexus, maybe Focused Channeling or Terrifying Barrage

idle bay
#

Crit blessing forces you to redline Peril , and it's risky AF because of input delays and misreads

#

Terrifying Barrage does nothing - becuase you already do crazy suppression from LMB

manic needle
#

Well since there are many situations where youre going to be spamming it anyway, you get a scaling crit bonus for doing so

#

Still useful even if youre not doing a high peril playstyle, which I wouldnt on surge anyway

#

TB is probably the least useful on Surge since most situations where youre reliably killing with it dont require suppression

#

Locking up enemy ranged is one of the surge staff's biggest strengths

A while back I was playing on one of the desert maps, maybe Comms Plex but Im not sure, and I was funneling a horde through a doorway with open windows on either side.

A vet is standing over by the window meleeing with power sword, and I hear a trapper charging up their net gun from somewhere outside. Sure enough, Vet gets trapped.

I rescue and fall back to try and draw the trapper into LoS as the vet runs back up to the window and starts meleeing again. Like clockwork he gets trapped again and now he's surrounded because I had to stop clearing to reach him and poxwalkers flooded through the door.

Vet goes down.

primarily using purg for trash clear, and realistically anything above 4 stacks is overkill

mighty pike
#

Let us know the outcome

steel egret
mighty pike
#

Even for the weakest types of mobs?

steel egret
#

well its the damage applied when attack hits.

#

then again I dont remember what was the difference of 0 and 80% burn apply

#

0.3 something is where it lingered.

#

thats a.. 78% staff

#

application rate is what I am talking about.

#

But it pretty much just means that in 1 second you apply 3 times in 1 second and 3 times in something like 1.2 and doesnt matter as much on weaker mobs as.. they most likely die to dot anyway.

#

Not sure what burn intensity on damage is, but could be tick rate of said burn dot.

#

Open for insight info on this.

long wharf
#

burn determines max soulblaze stacks from the staff as well as how quickly those dots are stacked

#

burn is #1 priority for purge

steel egret
#

Thought so

summer prairie
#

max stacks matter against very few enemies, mostly monstrosities. The application rate matters a bit but very small differences unless the value is very low

#

cloud probably has a bigger dps impact and also gives utility due to better stagger range

steel egret
#

Yeah, I was not too concerned about max stacks as realistic scenario in which you get to throw 15

#

Cloud is big too

#

But what is this burn intensity?

summer prairie
#

isn't there a stacking non-dot damage you do that goes up, maybe it's that

#

"stacking", at least a number that goes up

steel egret
#

hmm

#

I mean there has to be something

long wharf
#

maybe the damage for the secondary itself ramps up?

steel egret
#

Maybe its same as dot itself but dies when action ends.

#

damage numbers wise

#

or uses primary action damage.

fresh reef
#

Finally got around to confirming this: 6 SB stacks hits breakpoint for Dreg and Scab shooters

As such I'll be making that change for the build

steel egret
#

Who fucking knows.

long wharf
#

no, purge direct damage is noticeably different from the soulblaze dot

steel egret
#

okay

long wharf
#

maybe it's how fast the secondary fires?

cyan notch
#

well the combine00 guide says its the flame ramp up time

long wharf
#

"flame ramp up time" isn't descriptive

cyan notch
#

probably the direct fire damage as opposed to the dot

steel egret
#

Fuck is a flame ramp up time?

long wharf
#

I'm going to guess it's direct damage ramp up time

steel egret
#

I mean atleast its affected by multipliers from perks.

manic needle
#

If AB stacks only ticked off from soulblaze kills I could understand Damage being a dump stat on Purgatus, but since that isnt the case why nerf my own TTK?

I obviously havent used Purgatus that much but I wonder how having lower warp resistance and just peril juggling when needed would feel in comparison

If nothing else it would synergize with Nexus, right?
