i bet its amazing

spice veldt
#

the very best

dire coral
#

Does anyone know anything about the new thrust wep then?? the swing animations of it?

spice veldt
#

there was an old trailer where it had the Obscurus' 2nd heavy (diagonal) and a heavy thrust

dire coral
#

Cept straight stab with heavy

spice veldt
#

it didn't show any lights, and something has probably changed since then

#

but what we do have is hopium that it'll bring something new to the table besides being an even more single-target version of our current force sword

dire coral
#

i got 10k plastic saved up for that puppy to try out

#

i wanna get rock hard from it

#

hopefully

spice veldt
#

we shall fuel our space endeavors with our hopium

#

conquer the galaxies

#

and obtain a good force sword mark (though our current one is pretty nice)

dire coral
#

So you are saying there is a chance ??????

spice veldt
#

it's not impossible

dire coral
#

I just want something, anything, i just do thing for the hell of it at this point, got damn 600hrs in

#

i gotta do sum

potent echo
#

600 Servoskull

spice veldt
#

yeah I've been just using the Obscurus for the entire time I've played psyker

dire coral
#

Raelly, never the duel swords?

#

The movement speed is addicting

spice veldt
#

their hordeclear leaves much to desire

#

I try to avoid using my staffs for hordeclear and stick to using my melee if I can

#

so my melee having decent hordeclear is a criteria that must be passed

quasi pier
#

Yea I tried to use force sword today after using antax for the last couple of weeks and.. it felt pretty bad

dire coral
#

nothing compares to the axe

#

for clears

#

But that's why i have a zealot

spice veldt
#

6 cleave on heavies does wonders for the force sword

#

esp with t3 slaughterer at max stacks providing 60% power

#

9.6 cleave heavies with 64 minimum cleave damage

quasi pier
#

I can't seem to find better than tier 2 slaughterer so that doesn't help

spice veldt
#

clearly a skill issue

fiery atlas
#

i'm playing zealot rn w/ eviscerator

#

what a sword

spice veldt
#

and you need to roll some good stats on the force sword for it to hit certain breakpoints

fiery atlas
#

it's not bad but it's not good

spice veldt
#

and Warp Unleashed helps it feel a bit better

viral solstice
#

so what i want to know is who was the criminal

#

who started the antax push attack meme

quasi pier
#

But the fact that I have to charge the fs up after switching to it to kill elites messes up my flow

viral solstice
#

who is the culprit

fiery atlas
#

it was me

#

i did it like this

viral solstice
#

o ur forgiven

fiery atlas
#

but what if I never did it

viral solstice
#

unforgiven, and straight to hell

#

and u have to use the eviscerator

#

like its amazing how the force sword is exactly like the eviscerator except better in every conceivable way for more handsome gamers with cool fire

#

really makes u thonk

fiery atlas
#

i mean sure

#

but at least I don't use flamer

viral solstice
#

hell yea

fiery atlas
#

would you rather me use chainsword

viral solstice
#

i mean if ur an evis lover i respect it

#

i just feel ur pain

fiery atlas
#

yeah

viral solstice
#

thru the Computer

fiery atlas
#

also can someone tell me

#

why does evis have more mobility than chainsword

quasi pier
#

It uses premium fuel instead of regular unleaded

fiery atlas
viral solstice
#

i mean if it doesnt the emperor is a lie

#

i knew it was bad but after running the numbers on it

#

ist uh

#

yeah

fiery atlas
#

only good thing it's got going imo is the special

viral solstice
#

and just testing it in various ways

fiery atlas
#

push attack is ok

viral solstice
#

i mean the push attack has a 3 damage cap

#

its

#

yea

potent echo
#

Is there a crowd clear combo for the evis 🤔

fiery atlas
#

horde clear with it is so sad

potent echo
#

None of them feel any good

fiery atlas
#

light+heavy

potent echo
#

Never push?

viral solstice
#

but its not a normal horde clear combo

fiery atlas
#

you can if you wanna

viral solstice
#

its horde clear (aspirational)

#

if u push attack on evis ur lowering ur damage

#

by a lot

potent echo
#

Horde clear perhaps

spice veldt
#

it can dream big ok

viral solstice
#

pure push attack on an evis takes about 20s to kill 20 poxwalkers

fiery atlas
#

doesn't matter since your job is to press the funny button and maul crushers to death

viral solstice
#

a grey force sword kills 20 poxwalkers in about 12 seconds

fiery atlas
potent echo
#

Funny button on mutant is the most satisfying

viral solstice
#

and yes same applies to push attack on antax

#

20 seconds to kill 20

#

idk where this meme started

#

but a shovel

#

literally spamming lights

#

the veteran shovel

#

kills 20 poxwalkers in 15s

fiery atlas
#

vet shovel light spam goes brrrrr

potent echo
#

Why ppl cooming on the antax

viral solstice
#

funny story

#

vet shovel lights have a 3 target damage cap

#

like the push attack

#

but dont cost stam and are 2x as fast

#

much too think about

stable silo
#

antrax feels diff with brut momen ?

viral solstice
#

ye ur lights hit infinitely

stable silo
#

so u wanna go head taker brut ?

#

or head dec

viral solstice
#

head dec

#

stacks per target hit so into a crowd instant full stacks

#

uhh

#

brutal momentum dec

#

rather

#

lol

potent echo
cyan notch
#

antax push attack cleaves a ton by default and staggers everything thats why people spammed it

spice veldt
#

only caveat being that the first swing will not proc multiple stacks if you cleave multiple targets it seems
you'll need to hit an enemy with a swing first, then the next swing(s) are able to proc decimator/headtaker multiple times if you cleave multiple enemies

#

so after pushing, your first light with brumo into a horde won't proc a bunch of decimator stacks because idk fatshark

viral solstice
#

i do not understand how this even started

cyan notch
#

not in a mixed horde

fiery atlas
#

my current idea now is to spam evis so much that people look at me like the sword is good

viral solstice
#

i mean in some situations u push but thats not what people were doing

fiery atlas
#

and create a cult of evis users

viral solstice
#

they were spamming push attacks

cyan notch
#

it was just a brain off spam this move to never die kinda thing

viral solstice
#

full stop

cyan notch
#

normal horde mixed horde crusher horde just spam one move it staggers and cleaves everything

fiery atlas
#

@viral solstice what's the dodge count on evis btw

viral solstice
#

no idea ive only used it once

fiery atlas
potent echo
#

The mod will show it

fiery atlas
#

oh man pls don't be one

viral solstice
#

will be higher

fiery atlas
#

gotta install da mod

potent echo
#

Infinite fs dodges brrr

fiery atlas
#

i'm going delusional

#

i will install the mod later deranged

potent echo
#

I never knew but dodge sliding actually takes two dodge counts whatthefuck_heresy

fiery atlas
#

the warp has consumed me

near wyvern
viral solstice
#

i mean

cyan notch
# viral solstice but ur lights stagger infinitely with bm

the main thing was the move staggered all elites all specials and was extremely safe to spam and also cleaved a ton by default but that was also back when people didnt really know it only damaged 3 targets cuz it was still early days

viral solstice
#

i mean i was telling people it had a target cap

#

in december

cyan notch
#

clearly u didnt do ur job well enough

potent echo
#

I assume it's the same for chain axes?

cyan notch
#

this is going into your performance review

viral solstice
#

Wtf is happening in this chat right now

I think I need an inquisitor.........or two

wet jacinth
digital narwhal
#

Just 1 stat point short of 76% Burn for max stacks of Soulblaze, but-

#

Otherwise worth the pick up?

#

for 3k Smelk coins.

#

Hey wait, Smelk only has Oranges today

fallow meadow
#

Nice base? I have heard that warp res won't give you extra shot quite a long time ago.

spice veldt
#

nice stats, though you probably won't be able to get 4 full charges off without warp flurry

fallow meadow
#

Yeah I can't. You think better warp res can pull that off? It take 30% on a full charge.

spice veldt
#

yup

fallow meadow
#

So FatShark does fix trauma a bit then.

spice veldt
#

huh it turns out that you need basically 80% warp res for 4 full charges without flurry

rare furnace
spice veldt
#

at 80%, it's 20.25% peril for the charge and 4.20% for the cast, so 24.45% peril per cast

fiery atlas
#

ok gotcha

olive ember
#

to my knowledge the eviscerator isn't that good or somethin

#

according to the zealots

fallow meadow
#

I have heard that it is very good on horde killing with the right blessing.

#

And with special for killing big things, it can take care quite alot.

viral solstice
#

i have some sad news

#

even with the good blessings it is among the worst horde clear weapons in the game

#

roughly on par with the all or nothing rashad and the light attack vet shovel

fiery atlas
#

yeah because it's ZEALOTS

#

they are spreading PROPAGANDA

#

THAT'S WHAT THEY DO!!!!

#

in all seriousness i do hope it gets a massive buff

#

it needs range + cleave dmg buff

#

fuck it

#

just buff everything on the weapon

#

INCLUDING PENETRATION

fallow meadow
#

I guess it is still on par with Thammer? Since it is not killing anything, just sending things flying.

fiery atlas
#

no

#

thammer with the right blessings can 4shot daemonhost solo

olive ember
#

2 shot if you wanna do setup and use a flamer to get slaughterer stacks before hand

golden tartan
#

Absolute garbage at doing damage to anything past the first target though

ember hornet
#

still CCs 16 hit mass per swing, but yeah the cleave damage curve is non existent

golden tartan
#

Ye the CC saves it in hordes

#

But wading through a horde is the most tedious thing u can do with a thammer

ember hornet
#

it's actually pretty easy cause so much stagger and push being really strong

#

you can just walk through a horde

golden tartan
#

Solo wading that is

#

Cos the guys behind you will get up and start smacking u in the ass

#

Its good if you are just buying time for people with better hordeclear weapons to clear

ember hornet
#

just gotta keep pushing forward and it's fine

#

like end of smelter you can just wade through sections to get to objective no problem

#

nice to have a higher mobility secondary too

left briar
#

is void staff bad

#

am i supposed to charge or spam uncharged?

uneven drift
#

Charge to full preferable.

feral verge
#

void is good

#

dont spam uncharged

spice veldt
#

you usually don't need to charge it all the way for a horde n' all that; halfway or so is fine (depending on your damage roll, difficulty, and all that stuff)

#

but do charge it if you can

ember hornet
#

there is an uncharged spam soulblaze build but

#

it's not very good

#

void great though

olive ember
#

you wanna use atleast half charges

#

and then once warp flurry procs you can basically spam full charges

#

uncharged spam is only rly comparable if you use a macro and even then its kinda meme

spice veldt
#

something to note about is that charging also scales the cleave of the voidstrike

#

just from testing, uncharged shots have 2 cleave, and halfway charges have about 4 cleave

#

also, i'm 70% sure that swapping to a slaughterer FS lets you cleave a bit more

#

very cool

left briar
#

yiou boys like cleaving?

summer prairie
#

If you have flurry up and you are dealing with a horde, I think it's better to full charge

near wyvern
spice veldt
#

i like to believe in the 2h force sword

fallow meadow
#

I am not putting much hope,
on that. I feels like it will have move set just like eviscerator.

olive ember
#

I mean the eviscerator sucks cuz stats

#

the moveset is kinda jank but so is just normal FS so

#

it cant be that bad

#

right

spice veldt
#

well it'll prob have a hordeclear combo at least

past parrot
#

all it lacks for me is cleave

olive ember
#

and damage

#

and everything else

fallow meadow
#

Maybe I am a bit harsh on it. Haven't try it again after I first have one.
The main point I remember is normal chain sword is just better back then.

ember hornet
#

evis is a bottom 3 zealot weapon atm

#

no cleave, no blessings, small damage

#

it's still viable, just undertuned

late yew
#

All staves you mean? I wonder if there is any point in using guns

#

Generally how important keeping 4 stacks of brain buster?

#

Does it reach any breakpoints?

#

Although i am forced to play low diff right now...

olive ember
olive ember
#

Certain builds like purge staff with AB revolve around 6 stacks of warp charge

#

It hits some breakpoints but honestly most of em aren’t that important in an actual game where you should have teammates also damaging any priority targets

spice veldt
#

an example where 4 warp charges do matter is for Bulwarks on damnation, where you need 4 warp charges to 2-shot them with Brain Burst

late yew
#

What is soulblaze?

leaden thunder
#

spicy burn

cyan moth
#

Fire

spice veldt
#

burn but cooler

leaden thunder
#

that's why it does less damage

#

becuase it's cooler

spice veldt
#

:')

late yew
#

Can i find reocmmended build somewhere?

safe crystal
olive ember
#

Depends on what weapon you use

#

Build changes based on weapon

spice veldt
#

i'm 90% sure that 3 warp charges isn't enough

safe crystal
#

I had to run the test just now to be sure, its 3

late yew
#

What is considered to be warp attacks?

#

for level 5 talent

olive ember
#

BB, force staffs, force sword special attack

wet belfry
#

Force sword normal attacks, heavy attacks.

olive ember
#

Do they?

leaden thunder
#

they shouldn't for the regen

leaden thunder
#

but they do for the damage boost talent

wet belfry
#

I did see a differnence in my tests.

leaden thunder
#

they are force weapon attacks

olive ember
#

For the lvl 5 feats?

leaden thunder
#

but not warp attacks

wet belfry
#

Oh wait i meant level 10 feat

olive ember
#

Yea

wet belfry
#

Warp unleashed

olive ember
#

Only reason to take that shit feat

#

If you are too poor for slaughterer IV

wet belfry
#

The level 5 feat with warp attacks regenration is pretty weak

#

I hope they buff it.

safe crystal
olive ember
olive ember
#

Essence harvest is 30% non stacking

spice veldt
#

f

#

flayer ruining tests since 20232

olive ember
#

And quell peril is like 5% for 10% peril, so at max you only get like 25% back in one go if you press F

safe crystal
#

I need to get back into this game at some point, maybe after the new weapons are released

olive ember
#

So if they buff warp absorption they would have to buff literally the toughness feats across the board

wet belfry
#

The feat itself may possibly be flawed.

#

Theres not alot of pinch situations where you can use warp attacks to regenerate toughness.

#

It also requires using the staff over any other weapon.

olive ember
#

Eh it’s good on purge and voidstrike and serviceable on trauma tbh

#

Literally just take a step back and do a half charge

#

And that’s enough to kill most trash

pine merlin
#

I was gonna say, keeps me real alive with that voidstrike charge

spice veldt
#

though you can always regenerate toughness with melee

#

so there's that redundancy

olive ember
#

And if not they’ll be CC’ed long enough to do another charge

#

And yeah you can also just melee for toughness

spice veldt
#

whereas with Quietude, you can take your sweet time healing up with no particular time pressure

olive ember
#

Zealots nowadays run EWEW so they rely on killing to generate any form of burst toughness

spice veldt
#

if I'm a situation where I can kill trash with my staff, I can probably kill them with my melee
and if they're far enough away from my melee, that means I have space to quell (unless it's an open space and you're surrounded by ranged enemies)

olive ember
#

Eh honestly the only standout situation where toughness on demand is good imo is against shooters

spice veldt
#

yup

olive ember
#

You can quickly quell to gain some toughness back to tank another shooter burst

#

But besides that it’s kinda meh imo

#

I run it anyways cuz surge staff

spice veldt
#

and they're really the slowest part of the game unless you have a bunch of zealots on your team or competent shooters

#

and I usually kill the bulk of shooters at the start of engagements where my toughness is already maxxed out

#

in most cases, the shooters are too split up and I really only catch 1-3 shooters in my epicentre each time

wet belfry
#

Is the shooter situation really though where players should be gearing for?

#

Like are shooters alone really what kills people?

spice veldt
#

i find it to be the slowest section of any game, so I personally fear for it (I also gear for it)

pine merlin
olive ember
#

Shooters are the only scary thing besides those shitty poxhounds on high difficulty

spice veldt
#

I also don't use my staff for hordeclear and actively avoid doing so

#

if I can melee, I will melee

#

I'll probably pick warp absorption once we get a melee that can truly take advantage of it though

wet belfry
#

I personally belive that events are usally where most of the dangers in the game come from

olive ember
#

Eh they are only dangerous when they spawn shooters in

wet belfry
#

But events frequently have multiple differnent enemys in them.

olive ember
#

That’s why the easiest events are typically long ranged ones where you see them coming and there’s cover and time to kill em

spice veldt
#

I run the Trauma staff which can be extremely disruptive to my teammates, so I try not to use it
and I can also use the trauma staff to make space for me to quell the peril that I just generated from making space

ember hornet
#

yeah the endgame is building to mitigate shooters, nothing else is much of a threat outside of disablers

olive ember
#

The worst ones are always the ones where shooters show up randomly right behind you and start spraying

#

Shooters and shot gunners

spice veldt
#

the midevent of the ammo raid is probably where warp absorption would really come in handy

olive ember
#

The only other really scary thing would be special spam imo

#

But that’s like rarer and easier to stay on top of

wet belfry
#

Specials usally have far more consistent timers in when they spawn

twilit flicker
#

I actually think poxwalkers and unfinished scab kills are the worst, personally. People love to focus on the specials or rush through I get left behind a lot.

wet belfry
#

Waves of shooters can feel unpredictable, often are unpredictable.

olive ember
#

Or dodge

#

Snipers and trappers I dodge instinctively based on sound

#

But yeah the only time I find myself really needing to fall back are A) shooters or B) beast of nurgle

#

The only scary thing about horde rly is just getting body blocked while scarier shit kills you

spice veldt
#

i also like to wander away from my team, so I can't rely on coherency regeneration a lot of the time, so having quietude to regenerate toughness while I'm alone is very nice

olive ember
#

It’s too slow to rly affect much against shooters is the problem

spice veldt
#

it's decently fast enough for me, mostly because I run a low warp res force sword

olive ember
#

When one hit chunks like 30 toughness gaining like 10 back from quelling 20 peril won’t be much of a game changer

#

Maybe idk

spice veldt
#

I can get to 98% peril with three specials pretty quickly by just activating my special, swapping to another weapon and back to cancel my special, and etc. to generate peril to quell

olive ember
#

Lmao yeah zero warp resist

#

I get like maybe 15 peril from my FS special

broken quail
#

Weapon swap cancel to generate peril? Consider me intrigued

olive ember
#

Press special swap weapon repeat until enough peril

spice veldt
#

teammates hate this one trick for generating peril!

olive ember
#

Makes you go kablooey

spice veldt
#

it's fine until it's not

mortal crest
#

Does anyone know why the 100% Peril explosion does absolutely fuckall damage?

olive ember
#

Cuz they nerfed it at one point

#

Rly shit falloff

#

You gotta be basically inside em

mortal crest
#

I softened up a group of 4 gunners with Trauma to do the garbage penance and it did absolutely nothing to them when I ran over.

mortal crest
#

Why even nerf that?! It's not useful for anything but the penance!

olive ember
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

Fatshark

mortal crest
#

Real

olive ember
#

Welcome to darktide!

spice veldt
#

damn it really got nerfed?

late yew
#

Duel sword seems really nice?

olive ember
mortal crest
#

Who asked for that lmfao

olive ember
#

Idk man maybe people thought all wound blow up was a viable strat

#

XD

mortal crest
#

I could see it being viable if it did something stupid like 3k damage.

#

But it doesn't.

pine merlin
#

oopps

olive ember
#

Also I think the explosion shit is inconsistent

spice veldt
#

tsk tsk

mortal crest
#

The radius feels kinda iffy sometimes.

olive ember
#

Someone mentioned one shotgunner soaking all the damage at one point

#

But idk

pine merlin
#

I mean to say the self ploding

olive ember
#

If that’s how it works the. It’s dumb

spice veldt
#

smh nerfing psyker's suicide builds

mortal crest
#

Lmao

#

Psyker ISIS Build guide

mortal crest
#

Equally spaced 3 out into a triangle and it definitely doesn't spread damage equally.

#

One of them died, a second one was pretty low, and a third one was practically fine.

#

Could just be a problem with my testing, but that's mad annoying.

olive ember
#

Just know that the falloff is rly harsh so

#

Yeah they gotta be like hugging each other

pine merlin
#

ok so I am running the first one at the moment and got the second one, I haven't been able to notice a huge benefit with running the surge bless with the lower stats vs other one. Any thoughts?

olive ember
#

And then you gotta hug them

#

Both staffs into the bin

#

Blessings are bad

mortal crest
#

What're the two useful ones? It's like focused channeling and something else.

olive ember
#

Warp flurry + transfer peril for voidstrike

mortal crest
#

I see.

olive ember
#

If you insist on memeing you can use a crit strike memestrike build

pine merlin
#

ok, for some reason i thought I heard people saying surge was OP or something

olive ember
#

Which would be warp nexus + blazing spirit or surge

olive ember
#

Surge turns out is kinda mid

#

Not trash but mid af

pine merlin
olive ember
#

Cuz voidstrike base crit is 5% meaning if you want use out of stuff like blazing spirit and surge you need nexus

#

But at that point you are giving up both flurry and transfer peril

mortal crest
pine merlin
#

yeah. I like tranfer peril, just don't have the tier 4 yet.

olive ember
#

Even if no one thinks so anymore >.>

mortal crest
#

It's a staff I like seeing on my team, but I won't use it.

spice veldt
#

surge has a rather low target count and severe damage falloff

pine merlin
#

ok, good to know. sustained i don't think is good, but the alternative was run and gun lol

olive ember
#

Lol yeah that’s big rip

#

But yeah meta blessings for voidstrike is warp flurry + transfer peril

pine merlin
#

so made due. but good to know to not waste time rolling for surge, thanks

olive ember
#

Flurry for faster charge which is both more damage and less peril gained

#

And transfer peril is transfer peril

#

I’d say you could recycle the staff I guess for surge

#

In case it ever gets buffed you have a t4 on standby

pine merlin
#

yeah for sure.

olive ember
#

Especially since surge blessing is like super rare but yeah

mortal crest
#

I keep spam buying gray Trauma staffs to get a properly good one, but my luck on it is pretty poor.

#

Stuck with this lmao

olive ember
#

I mean it’s not… bad

mortal crest
#

On Zealot and Vet I swear to god I roll a 370+ every other buy.

mortal crest
#

Though I usually use the Force Sword for that so you can dodge infinitely while quelling.

olive ember
#

They buffed staff quelling iirc so now you should quell with staff like 80% of the time

#

Tho yeah I also use FS quell with infinite dodges

mortal crest
#

If they're pew pewing le sword is cash.

#

Unfortunately I only have deflector 1.

#

But it's good 'nough.

#

You at all excited about the new sword for Psyker?

#

Call me pessimistic but I feel like it's gonna be "meh"

uneven drift
#

Who wants another single target melee weapon.

mortal crest
#

Exactly my thoughts.

spice veldt
#

i'm fine with a different attack combo

mortal crest
#

"Hey guys it does the thing that other one also does."

spice veldt
#

as long as it has 6 cleave on its heavies

mortal crest
spice veldt
#

6 cleave is all i need

pine merlin
olive ember
#

It’s a single target variant of a sword that already does single target

#

So like I’m not particularly hyped

#

It’s gonna be funny if they somehow screw up tho and the “single target” variant actually does more hoard clearing

pine merlin
uneven drift
#

It's FS, so pretty high chances on that.

olive ember
#

We’ll see I suppose

uneven drift
#

I'm more interested in new Thammer, but have no hopes it would be better than current. If they will sacrifice single target dmg for horde clear it's kinda eh.

#

But, there are more than 2 weapons according to CatFish, so maybe psykers will get something else.

olive ember
#

Lmao cope harder then sure

#

Let’s be honest both are going to vets

uneven drift
#

Vet's don't need new weapons since they have power sword already, pretty hard to make something more busted than this shit.

you think they gonna branch into bio shit for psykers?

olive ember
#

Prob not idek

grizzled jasper
olive ember
#

Technically in code the psykinetic class is considered the “biomancer”

olive ember
#

Watch zealots mald

grizzled jasper
spice veldt
#

watch me mald

uneven drift
#

And another shovel variant for ogryn.

honest frigate
grizzled jasper
#

I’d laugh so hard if they make the two weapons that were revealed vet only

honest frigate
#

i think its gonna be different

mortal crest
#

More so than on Vet.

pine merlin
#

all i know is they need to give the ogryn a back pack for me to ride around in an zap zap zap

mortal crest
#

Real

uneven drift
#

Power dildo for psykers, i tell you, this shit is real.

mortal crest
#

Aw hell naw man.

pine merlin
olive ember
#

Oh no clue

honest frigate
#

hmm

#

thats is curious

grizzled jasper
olive ember
#

But yeah technically this psyker class we have is called biomancer in code

honest frigate
#

but then i dont get why the psykinetic has biolighting in the first place

grizzled jasper
#

Buzz buzz buzz

uneven drift
pine merlin
#

levitate eh eh eh?

mortal crest
#

WTF is going on

honest frigate
#

doesnt psykinetic mean being able to control the psychic side of a person or smth?

olive ember
#

Psyker chat rp’ing their characters

#

This is a first

grizzled jasper
#

IM LOSInG CONTROL

honest frigate
#

makes sense the psyker has brainburst

olive ember
#

Idk but yeah our powers kinda align with biomancer apparently

mortal crest
uneven drift
olive ember
#

Except we can’t heal ourselves

olive ember
#

Tbf half the people here are vet mains

#

They are just in psyker rn

🤔

honest frigate

I mean

mortal crest
#

I get too bored too fast to "main" anything. I just play whatever's not boring until it gets boring again.

olive ember
#

Zealot chat is mostly zealot mains

normal sequoia
#

Any gunpsykers here wanna advise me which one of these two should I spend my refine/rebless mats on? Should I go for Damage over Stopping Power or vice versa?

olive ember
#

Ogryn chat is ogryn chat

grizzled jasper
#

I’m a plasma main I’m practically a psyker

olive ember
#

And vet chat is too busy rp’ing usually to show up to other chats

#

Just saying

honest frigate
#

havent used shredder pistols much but im assuming stopping power affects the stagger

hybrid solstice
#

it does yeah

#

idk by how much

grizzled jasper
honest frigate
#

collateral is how much the bullet can penetrate through hordes, no?

grizzled jasper
#

Does it affect stagger? No idea with fs weird coding

olive ember
#

Depends on weapon maybe

#

Like finesse on FS affects swing speed and crit chance but on axe it affects damage against enemy types or wte

grizzled jasper
honest frigate
#

thats what comes to mind when i hear "collateral" anyway

#

stopping power would logically affect stagger but if it doesnt

#

it is what it is

mortal crest
#

Damn it'd be crazy if the stats weren't ambiguous as shit lmao

normal sequoia
#

so uh.. guessing I should go with the 80% damage one then? 😄

honest frigate
#

Fatshark devs "try not to make the stats difficult to understand" impossible challenge

normal sequoia
#

since I'd defo will make use of the pining fire blessing, so I guess that's the best combination

gilded viper
#

Just inspect it

#

U can hover over the stats to see ahat it does

grizzled jasper
honest frigate
mortal crest
#

Makes sense, uhuh.

spice veldt
#

scab stalkers aren't too bad; it's the scab shooters (green eyes) that'll fuck your hp up

#

Right now I have the the best shredder autopistols on my zealot and psyker... but ironically not THE class for shooting, which is the vet. Since RNG hates me there KEKW_ogryn

Ah yes, the Lead/Laser Strike Staffs.

you fellas ever see a daemonhost in the middle of a firefight and you're sweating/trying not to catch the thing in your line of fire

#

then the bot angers it anyways

neat sand
#

Tho to be fair finding 3 people who want there heresy achievement and helping each other is not a bad thing I did it for mine 🙂

velvet crescent
#

i was very tempted to leave the bot there to his fate

honest frigate
#

whats the best sword for cleave?

velvet crescent
#

i saved the psyker tho

honest frigate
#

im tired of using the force sword

#

as a psyker

velvet crescent
#

get back to you on that

#

i ain't good with psyker

honest frigate
#

90% of the time i only play psyker

#

Ogryn doesnt have much weapon variety to keep me entertained

#

veteran is your average shooter main (boring)

#

Zealot has a cool hammer atleast

gilded viper
#

Bb and ult made me stay on psyker

#

Everytime I play vet or zealot I press G and like "oh yeah no bb COPIUM "

velvet crescent
#

for me its like

honest frigate
#

massive copium

velvet crescent
#

"oh shit that's right bb is unlimited"

spice veldt

See crusher
Monkey brain : press g

honest frigate
#

with that one lvl 30 feat (i think) i can spam 4-5 BBs in a quick succession

#

#

elites byebye

gilded viper
#

My favorite one to run with gunpsyker

honest frigate
#

gunpsyker...

gilded viper
#

Yes

honest frigate
#

can we ban this guy

kind jay
#

we like bullet staff

gilded viper
#

Don't knock it till u try it

honest frigate
#

i'd try it but then i couldnt equip my purgatus staff

#

if i could equip 2 rangeds i would

#

but i cant

kind jay
#

shredder is basically purg

#

except with bullets

honest frigate
#

except with limited ammo

gilded viper
#

Stave in this game just isn't as fun as sienna is my main problem with it

honest frigate
#

except its more sucky at horde clearing

#

so basically worse than purg

gilded viper
#

But I like psyker kit so diescringe

kind jay
#

if youre using up 600 ammo thats an aiming issue

honest frigate
#

but with purgatus you hardly have to aim at all

velvet crescent
#

how's quietitude?

#

i picked it for level 5

kind jay
#

good

honest frigate
#

i use essence harvest

leaden thunder
#

all are actually pretty decent

#

tbh

gilded viper
#

It weapons dependant I feel

velvet crescent
#

got it

#

i might stick to the trauma staff/force sword combo later levels

honest frigate
#

force swords arent all that special even

#

like i barely use the warp attack on it

velvet crescent
#

iirc you autoquell with other swords

#

so 2nd knock against it

leaden thunder
#

the on warp attack kill is actually pretty good with like

#

the voidstaff

spice veldt
#

you'll absolutely wreck anything with flak with the force sword special

kind jay
#

or just anything, period

spice veldt
#

the damage with the special compared to normal combos is actually fairly comparable; just that the special staggers the enemy you hit

velvet crescent
#

it's just low difficulties aye but i find that force sword ain't that bad vs crushers

spice veldt
#

the stagger is really the shining star of the FS special

leaden thunder
#

it actually is pretty good vs crushers

#

the special at least

kind jay
#

it stuns them for the entire duration

velvet crescent
#

oh, huh

kind jay
#

while also melting them

spice veldt
#

and deals a stronger stagger at the very end

leaden thunder
#

I mean it actually does damage to them

lethal folio
#

Burst into force heavy is usually enough to kill

olive ember
#

Btw @spice veldt @safe crystal I am considering revising MetaPsykerTM to use a revolver 🤔

#

Thoughts?

spice veldt
#

who put me on the committee

olive ember
#

I did

#

👌

spice veldt
#

aaaaaaa

#

since you use the surge staff, you're prob fine with using melee a lot, so it'll work I suppose

#

have fun reloading all the time though

olive ember
#

Kek

safe crystal
#

It'd still be stronger than the autogun, but not by much

#

Low ammo, reload etc, and brain burst exists to already deal with whatever revolver tries to do

kind jay
#

revolver was great in t3 because you could insta-kill whatever you wanted without stopping melee

#

once it stops one shotting its meh

safe crystal
#

I mean, for me

#

I ran the build, tried to use the autogun

void mural
#

I really struggled to like the revolver because it's lack of damage per magazine vs the super slow reload time

safe crystal
#

Gave up after one burst, and never used it again

spice veldt
#

infantry autogun's pretty good if you can hit the one-shot headshot breakpoint on shooters with perks n whatnot

kind jay
#

the idea is to noscope specials mostly, not really a use all the time gun

spice veldt
#

*referring to the agripinaa specifically

#

not whatever horrendous variant the metapsykerbuildtm was using

safe crystal
#

Well, we run the peashooter on metapsykerTM, so theres that

#

Takes 4 shots to kill a shooter

void mural
#

Yeah, I like agrip infantry autogun

safe crystal
#

Anything that isnt the graia autogun = upgrade in my eyes

void mural
#

Ha, I don't think I've tried anything but the agrip out if thr infantry autoguns. Was the first one I got, and then when I looked at all the other marks, they just seem inferior

#

They all do less damage per shot, and don't seem to have any other upsides?

spice veldt
safe crystal
#

At least they have a manageable recoil, so i can kill things

olive ember
#

It’s easier to use and provides better horde clear

void mural
#

Yeah, recons are fun, but man do they eat ammo

olive ember
#

And since psyker can fall back on his BB it’s arguably better imo

#

Still weak as shit but yeah

spice veldt
#

true; just tested it and the VID is not too bad against shooters

#

well, unarmoured dreg

olive ember
#

Technically speaking it’s the weakest but god damn idk what aim bot you are using to land only headshots with autoguns like the Columnus

void mural
#

I really like HH mk 7, but even with max stability, it's hard to snipe thing if you've got more than 1 thing at range to kill

spice veldt
#

the crack cocaine that is vet's F

olive ember
#

Is there a worse gun than the Columnus infantry tho

#

Always wondered

#

I think genuinely the revolver cuz it’s 5 shots and gone

safe crystal
#

Oh right, it was columnus we were using

#

Goddamn, its truly been too long

olive ember
#

Prob can’t one shot anything past normal shooters

#

It’s been a while since we rolled the MetaPsykerTM yeah

void mural
#

Yeah, what's the point of that gun? Every time I see one, it just looks like crap

olive ember
#

It’s just not good

#

But statistically it’s better than recon las

#

Just that recon las is easier to use and in an actual game prob better imo

void mural
#

Ha, so I'm not wrong in my judgement of it being crap based on just looking at its stats

olive ember
#

Idk cuz technically you can two tap heads with the Columnus IAG but idk how tf you are doing it in an actual game where they are hiding in cover and shooting back

#

Where as recon you just hold m1

void mural
#

Or just take an agrip and 1 tap heads or 2 tap bodies

olive ember
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

void mural
#

I will say that recon is fun

olive ember
#

But yeah dunno if the Columnus IAG vs recon las vs revolver which one is the worst

void mural
#

I really feel like a ton of problems for the revolver could be fixed if they just gave it a speed loader animation and way cut down the reload time

#

It's not a bad feeling/handling gun outside of its reload time

#

I really want to enjoy it, but the downtime for the revolver compared to the uptime is just too much

olive ember
#

🤔

honest frigate
#

damnation low intensity

#

mmmm crafting mats

gilded viper
#

Recon gun is good NODDERS (I'm 1000% bias since I mainly use vld on psyker)

#

Love the brrrrr

leaden thunder
gilded viper
leaden thunder
#

I wish it was good

#

it's really fun

olive ember
#

Is it worse than the Columnus and the revolver tho? @leaden thunder

gilded viper
#

I feel like it decent* but yeah for me fun > the fact it ammo is eh

leaden thunder
#

it's100% worse then the columnus

olive ember
#

.>

#

Wrong

#

Lies and slander

#

;-;

#

Recon is great guys

leaden thunder
#

it's probably technically better then the revolver

gilded viper
#

Honesty idk what the problem with it tbh, feel like it do decent damsge and u can hit all your shot with low recoil, only downside that is noticeable is it ammo if u spam it too much which I tend to just use bb a bit more then stick on the gun 24/7

leaden thunder
#

but the revolver has a different use case

olive ember
#

What use case is that again

leaden thunder
#

quikcly swaping in melee

#

etc

olive ember
gilded viper
#

Point and stun X Enemy

olive ember
#

Does like 1/4 the dmg of Columnus

#

The only problem is I don’t see in an actual game you hitting shit in the head all the time

#

With the Columnus which is what makes it decent

#

Since it only has like a 30 mag and a slow af reload

gilded viper
#

Maybe I am just a full auto head oozmaeSob

spice veldt
#

part of the problem is also prob the terrible sights

#

if it had a proper sight, I'd like it since I'm a sucker for fast RoF weapons

olive ember
#

I mean iirc the only gun with actually good sights are the mk 12

#

Everything else is shitty iron sights or worse

leaden thunder
#

I think the only weapon I have actual issues with the sights is like the hellbores

gilded viper
#

That fair. I sometime lose my target cause of rhe recon flash covering the enemy

leaden thunder
#

but I haven't used the recons in a while

spice veldt
#

i find the infantry autoguns to be passable

gilded viper
#

Recon is kinda too flat I guess idk how to describe it

lethal folio
#

VId is the fastest running gun and has decent bigguy dps thanks to burn.

olive ember
#

Still trash since they nerfed infernus

gilded viper
#

Infernys is ok but sadge for bosses

olive ember
#

9 stacks of burn

#

Like bruh

gilded viper
#

I remember from my testing a while sgo it had a 1.1 dps against reaper but idk how good that is compare to other guns

olive ember
#

Ik there was a clip where a recon did like a quarter of a reapers health to the face where a Columnus did like 2/3 or wte

wide tiger
#

i think one recon is better close up and one is far away

leaden thunder
#

it's one of the fast firing ones

wide tiger
#

also the VIIa i believe has 1 punchthrough

gilded viper
#

Idk what the vld good for diescringe

lethal folio
#

VId has reverse falloff

olive ember
#

VIIa is slow and therefore

#

Bad

wide tiger
#

I mean they're all bad

#

lol

lethal folio
#

VIIa has 1.8 cleave because it is a copy of the II but with 900 power instead of 500

leaden thunder
#

which one is that?

#

slow shooty or fast shooty

gilded viper
#

The slow pnr

lethal folio
#

slowest

gilded viper
#

One

leaden thunder
#

I figured

#

that one seemed like the best from the patern of other weapons

gilded viper
#

Tbf all guns in this gsme really do be like slow= best dps

leaden thunder
#

only one that seems to break that is the hellbores

gilded viper
#

Lasgun mk12, that one brace gun and auto gun

leaden thunder
#

oh and for headhunters

#

with the slowest being the agri and being the worse

#

I think

olive ember
#

I think 7 is the best but only because infernus is bad

#

Back before infernus nerf 6 was the best

wide tiger
#

yeah both vraks HH good, agri pretty bad

viral solstice
#

for hellbores if carapace was more of a big deal 3 would be more aprpeciated

#

its just nobody gives a shit about carapace

#

so 3s niche is irrelevant

wide tiger
#

no one cares about carapace because zealots F, psykers G, and vets Psword

gilded viper
#

So not enough carapace enemy NODDERS

viral solstice
#

and also theres like

#

one carapace enemy

#

that 2

#

poor crusher is alone

wide tiger
#

and then whatever iwin button ogryn has idk i dont play ogryn

#

probably shovel

viral solstice
#

i mean ya shovel is always i win

olive ember
#

Crushers, mauler heads, bulwark shields, reaper arms and feet

#

Iirc

#

For carapace

viral solstice
#

bulwark shields arent anything

#

and then the other bits its just like

#

bulwarks have some tiny carapace plates on them

#

like the shoulder

#

but its not really carapace its more like booby prize if u hit them there

safe crystal
lethal folio
#

Ogryn either just hits through carapace with no problem or has rending to back him up.

olive ember
#

I mean can opener is going bye bye so yea

kind jay
#

thunk em in the head with rumbler

void mural
olive ember
leaden thunder
#

getting buffed and fixed

olive ember
#

But yeah they are making it not apply to ranged attacks

#

So you can’t just spray down a crusher with the ripper gun

leaden thunder
#

well you will have to stab them once first

#

then you can spray them down

void mural
#

Oh, lol! I didn't even know that was a thing

#

Welp, looks like i missed out if that is getting fixed in the "March patch"

#

At least its intended use is getting buffed?

leaden thunder
#

yeah

#

it's getting doubled

#

so 1 poke maxes brittleness with t4

void mural
#

Oh? I thought it gave rending?

#

Is it getting changed to brittleness?

leaden thunder
#

it says rending

#

it was always brittlness

void mural
#

Lol, classic FS lying tooltips

leaden thunder
#

anything that says +x rending isn't rending

#

as far as I can tell

void mural
#

Dafuq

leaden thunder
#

only one case of this was actually changed to match what it actually does

#

and that is rending shockwave on the truama staff

void mural
#

So, +rending is actually team wide buff

leaden thunder
#

yeah

#

if it is +x% rending

#

then it is actually rending

void mural
#

Ohhhh

leaden thunder
#

though a large portion of weapons that have it

#

already pen armor

void mural
#

So, what is +rending %? Just 5%?

leaden thunder
#

depends

#

each stack of brittlness is 5% iirc

#

but if it's a % rending on a blessing (ie on uncanny strike)

lethal folio
#

It is the exact same debuff

void mural
wide tiger
#

What happens when you have max rending and the enemy has brittleness too?

leaden thunder
#

then it works off that % in the description

wide tiger
#

Do you just

leaden thunder
lethal folio
#

Then you can do extra damage

wide tiger
#

destroy them

#

crumple them into a miniature singularity

lethal folio
#

You would deal up to 140% of your damage difference as extra.

leaden thunder
#

really?

void mural
#

Does rending/brittleness actually do something for high AP weapons? Or just still brings you closer to 100% dmg if you're below 100%?

lethal folio
leaden thunder
#

it's damage reduction reduction

void mural
#

Yeah, so it's still the same thing? Mostly useless on high AP weapons

wide tiger
#

Probably why plasma gun and rending impact be pretty bad

void mural
#

Yeah, does literally nothing

wide tiger
#

thats how i figured it worked anyways

void mural
#

Since they do over 100% dmg to carapace

wide tiger
#

Its the same as rending shockwave, its for your team mates

#

supppport cough

void mural
#

I think Sean just said it's not brittleness on rending shockwave

lethal folio
#

It's good if you feel like saving some ammo on plasma.

leaden thunder
#

rending shockwave got it's description changed to be correct

void mural
leaden thunder
#

shot something once then melee it

lethal folio
#

You stop shooting and whack it in the face.

void mural
#

Oh, haha

#

It doesn't help the gun, just other finishing attacks

#

I don't really understand why they gave plasma gun ammo. Every other overheat mechanic in every tide game hasn't involved ammo

#

It's not like it'd be OP. You still have venting limiting your damage potential with it, and it's the only venting that still actually hurts you in darktide

stable hare
#

Ey psyker chads, i'm leveling my psyker and i'm wondering what staves you would recommend to me

leaden thunder
#

any and all

#

find the staff you vibe with the most

stable hare
#

tried all of them, voidstrike seemed the worst to me (low level), trauma was okay, surge was good enough and purge was giving me headaches after 2 maches

kind jay
#

sounds like you found your answer

gilded viper
#

Then use gun NODDERS

#

(Joking ofcouse go surge then I like it through leveling)

kind jay
#

i would say try out the staves again at max level with at least 1 of their bis blessings

gilded viper
#

^

kind jay
#

game changes a lot for a lot of these with good rolls

stable hare
#

Will do. Does anyone else get kinda motion sick from the purge staff? Its so weird

#

that blue light in contrast with the darkness of the game deletes me

kind jay
#

it brightens up the screens a lot for everyone

gilded viper
#

It can get blinding but first time I'm hearing motion sickness

stable hare
#

it strained my eyes more like, not exactly dizzy

#

poor wording

kind jay
#

theres a mod to disable screen effects but im not sure if purge effects are in there

stable hare
#

too bad i cant use mods then because i play from GFN Guarded

#

thanks though

kind jay
#

ah ok fair

gilded viper
#

Gfn?

stable hare
#

geforce now, nvidias cloud gaming service

#

cause my brick pc can't handle darktide with more than 25-30 fps

#

@gilded viper

gilded viper
#

Aaah

late yew
#

How to better use lightning?

#

charge or spam?

olive ember
#

Both depending on situation

gilded viper
#

I like charging if I'm vs flank armor enemy's but spam on other since it might as well be 0 damage

late yew
#

It seems to have really bad damage?

leaden thunder
#

it does against anything that isn't flak

late yew
#

So force staff does mroe damage?

gilded viper
#

Inspect it, damage on anything but flank is COPIUM (make sure u looking at the secondary move)

gilded viper
late yew
#

how does flak armor look like?

kind jay
#

theres not a specific "look". you can go into the meat grinder to see which enemy parts are what armor

#

though i guess if it kinda looks like armor its usually flak. carapace is basically crushers

gilded viper
#

Gotta give me the name, there void, surge, purg and trauma , since all of those are techinally "force staves"

leaden thunder
#

one notable execption as well is scab flamers

#

as they are maniac

#

for some reason

flat shadow
#

carapace sparks blue if you hit it I think

#

What's that big ogryn without the shield

leaden thunder
#

bulwark

flat shadow
#

Non the chain gunner

#

yeah

leaden thunder
#

oh without the shield

flat shadow
#

he's annoying without a psyker

leaden thunder
#

without the shield is crusher

flat shadow
#

Yeah it's hard to find a spot that isn't armored

#

I think it's like

leaden thunder
#

crushers are entirely carapace

viral solstice
#

crushers are entirely crusher

late yew
#

Also should you spam brain buster on bosses?

gilded viper
#

sorry if my lack on stave is low but tramua kinda just work on everything really

leaden thunder
#

it do

gilded viper
#

how u going to hit weakspot, NO CLUE but hey it there

leaden thunder
#

the infested damage is kinda insulting tho

#

20 damage short of 1 shotting poxies on damn

gilded viper
#

infested barely have HP anyways right?

leaden thunder
#

you need like 1-2 warp charges for it

#

which isn't a big deal

#

but it's still dumb

flat shadow
#

His neck

#

you basically need a psyker

#

To do more than like 4 damage

wintry plover
#

Which perk should I replace with flak damage?

summer prairie
#

Do you want more sweet overkill damage and yellow circles or slight utility

wide tiger
#

lets play find the psyker

gilded viper
#

far right

#

case of the overkill damage

twilit flicker
#

Far left could be Purge with Nexus

wide tiger
#

far left was flamer zealot

#

so pretty close

twilit flicker
#

Lol it had to be fire!

wide tiger
#

was far right with a revolver

gilded viper
#

i try that once and it so depressing 😦

#

it fun to use but man it alot of work

wide tiger
#

I dont understand the appeal of a revolver if you have BB but idk

gilded viper
#

it nice to do a headshot with that gun

#

it feel good to use

wide tiger
#

Does it feel good to reload

gilded viper
#

but ammo make it kinda COPIUM and it having bad damage on manaic

#

with speed loader ngl it good

#

but needing to slide make it so clucky

#

had t4 speed loader on psyker and it was fun but slding is so inconstant

devout axle
#

When you mix Ketchup and Yellow Mustard together, is it Ketchtard or Mustup?

wide tiger
#

i mean i slide and reload a lot as is

#

if you slide does it give you a buff window

#

or do you actually have to be sliding while reloading

late yew
#

Should you spam brain bust on bosses?

wide tiger
#

depends on a lot of things

#

Do you have cerebral lacerations?

gilded viper
#

depend on loadout tbh

wide tiger
#

do you have guns?

#

which boss?

#

Do you have kinetic barrage?

Your DPS will be generally higher if you spam BB on bosses. That said, it feels really bad to do this without Kinetic Barrage.

cerebral lacerations giving your whole team (yourself included) a 25% damage bump is pretty worth

Lacerations is worth in general just for the extra breakpoints on Ogryn.

It's a good feat. All the feats of that level are good.

Also neat fact. Lacerations buffs DoT damage, so you can inch some extra damage out of Soulburn effects.

Or help your Zealot flamer down big guys. Whatever you feel is more relevent.
