hybrid solstice
#

Not to my knowledge

vale creek
#

Waaaaaaaaait really

hybrid solstice
#

Illis definitely does but i havent tried on deimos

vale creek
#

that changes a LOT

forest coral
#

I think it’s oversight

#

Probably will get patched out

cyan notch
#

its definitely a bug

forest coral
#

or shows original intention for fs was all to have deflection by default

quasi pier
#

Yea if they didn't update obscurus to do the same it's a bug

forest coral
#

These new fs feel so good to play around with rooFloat

#

And not to mention non force weapons with the passive quell back has renabled some of my staffs with horrendously low quells

regal musk
#

Random question, been out of it for a while so havent paid attention to the new crafting stuff.
If i submit my only FS with Deflector, I can permanently apply Deflector to any other FS i own right?

weary idol
#

of that variant

spice veldt
#

yup

#

you can infinitely apply blessings that have been earned

regal musk
#

So submitting my Obscuras FS with Deflector only allows me to put Deflector on other Obscuras?

#

Bleh

spice veldt
#

oh wait

#

no it also allows you to put it on the deimos and illisi

#

the blaze force swords

regal musk
#

Ah ok, thanky

weary idol
#

so i'm trying out a bit of a weirdo build with the new feat

#

and honestly it doesn't feel half bad to use

vale creek
#

new feat?

weary idol
#

yeah new feat

weary idol
#

2 brain bursts on elites will very consistently wipe entire groups of trash

vale creek
#

rn im using deflector and peris decrease on weakspot hit

weary idol
#

as the new feat makes the stacks carryover and kill new targets

forest coral
#

It’s decent to use on kb builds

#

But not amazing I feel

weary idol
#

or if you have like a bulwark in the middle of a gorrilion poxwalkers

#

they will all die to 2 BB on the bulwark

#

it's pretty sweet

cursive marten
#

Time to burn the heretic.whatthefuck_heresy

regal musk
#

Oh, They did fix Wrack and Ruin a bit. Works on hit instead of kills now. Wasnt expecting that

vale creek
#

wich row is that feat?

#

i mean column

hoary badge
#

2

#

Nvm I thought you meant wrack

#

5 for wildfire

vale creek
#

i meant the bb spread

wide tiger
#

2 force swords in armoury shop at the SAME TIME?! The golden age has arived

hoary badge
#

Not having success with blazing spirit wildfire myself

quasi pier
# weary idol it's pretty sweet

Yea I ran this today on damnation shock trooper today and it felt good. Only difference was using quietude on tier 1 feats

hoary badge
#

Allies wipe the floor too quickly for the fire to spread

weary idol
#

well wildfire causes any soulfire you applied to spread when the target dies

#

so as long as they're on fire an die the feat applies

#

even if the benefit of an enemy losing their health and dying in one less swing or bullet might not be very noticable

hoary badge
#

They all die before I can get any procs going i mean

weary idol
#

the real practical use for it is dealing with shooters taking cover near gunners/reapers

#

and bulwark/rager hordes

quasi pier
#

Yea I think blazing spirit needs to be on hit with a lower stack cap to be usable

#

The crit version is too inconsistent and slow to be very good imo

hoary badge
#

I'm missing shred and warp nexus on both my blazing spirit weapons which would probably make it more viable

#

But that's really painful to build for

wide tiger
#

it is

#

slaughterer is still better

#

i have a firesword, ill post it after mission, i just gave it a 5% perk crit, and even then i think its prob wasteful

regal musk
#

The heck is that buff to thr right of WC?

#

Oh nvm, Warp Nexus

#

Forgot blessings now show as buffs lol

quasi pier
summer prairie
#

Blazing spirit+nexus is good

#

on trauma

weary idol
#

it's a pretty cool feat

hoary badge
#

I like polishing my illsis

quasi pier
#

Yea on trauma probably not bad aoe, I was specifically talking about blazing on sword. I think void staff would suffer the same problem

weary idol
#

even if you don't build into it it makes enemies so much squisher that most attacks just one shot them

hoary badge
#

Let's me feel the juices of the emperor flow through me

#

I got my first blazing 4 on my Deimos this patch

#

Was trying to pair it with a Blazing Trauma will little avail

quasi pier
honest frigate
#

Heresy

weary idol
#

well yeah

hoary badge
#

Coolant tubes

#

I meant the coolant tubes

weary idol
#

what kinda weirdo relies on random crits to get soulblaze going

#

rather than deleting a handful of elites

#

or pressing F

steel flame
#

Because

#

It's cool

#

Fight me

quasi pier
steel flame
#

Only issue being that a crit on the illisi sword 1 shots most mobs

#

So actually getting SB stacks is a pain

dense tide
#

How it feels when 100 peril

forest coral
#

They know too much

dense tide
#

"REACHING INTO THE WARP!"

quasi pier
regal musk
#

Illsi FS not doing the weird animation on hit makes it super smooth lol

forest coral
#

Can u imagine on hit blazing on a sword that spreads

quasi pier
#

It would be super sweet, and pretty easy to balance with stack limits on wildfire

dense tide
#

While i'm not really knowledged with the warhammer world and lore, I am pretty sure I was told that some psykers can use telekenisis, so imagine slashing foes by some kind of a levitating force sword using your mind, it has potential for some mad range

ornate hamlet
forest coral
#

Illisi charge up be like “vibe check”

dense tide
#

and if my knowledge is right, I'm pretty sure psykers can use telekenisis as some form of earthbending/metalbending

#

imagine a psyker starts picking up rocks from the ground and throw them at you using his mind only

forest coral
#

if we can lift things into the air like sister of thorns could

#

That would be kinda cool

dense tide
#

I'm sure some pyskers can do it

#

not just the sister

quasi pier
#

A gravity field ability like mass effect mages would be sick

forest coral
#

Biotics

dense tide
#

I like to believe the philosphy that "we only use an actual small bit of our brain, and that we could do outstanding things if we unlock our full potential"

#

applies on pysker

quasi pier
#

I just want the ability to enter the minds of my enemies and tell them about our lord and savior Emperor Omnisiah the First

forest coral
#

I could think of much more awful places to burst

steel flame
#

Anyone else feel like the change to roaming enemies makes the map in damnation feel stupid empty outside swarms now?

forest coral
dense tide
#

Anybody would like to share any lore they made for their psyker, if you wrote anything

quasi pier
#

I only ran a few matches today, but the shock trooper maps basically felt like 0 downtime

steel flame
#

I was doing a few regular damnation because hi wasn't available and I had to double check it wasnt low intensity because there were barely any enemies in any of the maps

quasi pier
#

That would be disappointing if we have to rely on rng for good horde density on maps

woeful cliff
#

Head hitbox on Deimos stabs are super nice. I can get them pretty regularly. Loving the new force swords that came out recently.

#

Feel like weakpoint damage is actually viable for it.

quasi pier
#

Momba said normal damnation is feeling empty because of the new enemy behavior changes

woeful cliff
#

I can see it making some breakpoints.

wet belfry
#

I think they just reduced the numbers of small groups of roamers

dense tide
#

You guys should totally write some lore and such for your characters, kinda like an oc

wet belfry
#

So scab melees, dreg melees.

quasi pier
#

Yea that's what the patch notes said. I was just commenting based on what momba said.

#

Haven't played vanilla damnation yet myself since patch

wide tiger
#

399 purple emps gift

#

god damn

woeful cliff
#

I heard shotgunners got the nerf bat and that was a source of grief in damnation

wide tiger
#

they did get nerfed

#

lower damage from far awayt

woeful cliff
#

Yeah

#

Anyways, I love Deimos FS. I'll need to grab a good one and see how many stabs it takes to kill things and then roll perks until it takes 2 for most enemies.

golden tartan
#

They no longer snipe u in two shots

#

They now snipe u in 3

woeful cliff
#

tbh

#

That's a W

golden tartan
#

As compensation fatshark now spawns them in waves of 16

:3

woeful cliff
#

Mitosis

golden tartan
#

Definitelt saw WAY more shotgunners than usual in the double special modifier

#

Even though they arent a special

woeful cliff
#

The dmg nerf means eating a shot doesn't chip health, you might fully tank with toughness

#

It does say Specials

#

Not Specialists

meager cedar
woeful cliff
#

I rarely saw coordinated strikes of 5 specialists so maybe they lump anything that isn't a grunt as a "Special" enemy.

dense tide
#

I made mine off of as a child with deformed primal animal like facial features and white natural hair, and he is a black ship escapee that blended in at the industrial mars factories doing child labour

#

Despite the hard childhood, he works now as at the heretic & lowlifes office, being sent to these missions with the rejects

#

Some sort of a mentor/aid

#

He was named "snow monkey", because of his looks and the whole "intelligence and mankind had evolved from apes and monkeys" thing

#

There's plenty of details, and other story bits I made for my character, but this is pretty much the summaries

weary idol
#

my Psyker is named Gruntilda because she's a witch and that's funny

Tickle his back

ornate hamlet
forest coral
#

Not with that attitude

ornate hamlet
#

i like how his canon form

#

is literally nothing and everything

compact cargo

no

ornate hamlet
#

isnt his form unknowable

compact cargo

he is mollusk that dictatrs crypto prices

constantly changing

compact cargo
ornate hamlet
#

oh kek

forest coral
#

or is he tickling you

#

Perils of the warp be rising

twilit badger
#

New FS supposed to be for horde is meh

#

But thrust move set one is amazing

honest frigate
forest coral
#

They’re both really good

honest frigate
#

Deimos sword is almost the same as the starter one except its better at singletarget

twilit badger
#

One for horde lacks single target deletion by huge

forest coral
#

It’s like heavy sword on steroids

twilit badger
#

Then the charge up turns off after one swing

#

Bruh

#

No

forest coral
#

Yes

honest frigate
#

It turns off after a swing but its pretty good at deleting horse idk whatchu mean

#

copium

twilit badger
#

I'd stick to old FS and thrust one thanks

twilit badger
#

Ghetto PS sucks honestly

forest coral
#

You’re free to do so lmao

honest frigate
#

Copium

twilit badger
#

If it were able to do 2 swings sure

uneven drift
twilit badger
#

Yicky for only 1 swing KEKW_ogryn

honest frigate
#

Its a obscurus sword with the ability to deal with hordes idk whats so bad about it

#

People are never satisfied

twilit badger
#

Because other obscurus sword can do amazing single target dmg

#

This one sacrificed that

forest coral
#

Right but this sword opens up things like gunker

twilit badger
#

But not that good against hordes either

honest frigate
#

Its good against hordes

proven cipher
#

Well if the special is on a timer or 2-3 swings

honest frigate
#

smh

forest coral
#

And you are no longer that cucked for running surge or void

twilit badger
#

For how much sacrificed it is

proven cipher
#

Then it would have been better

forest coral
#

It sacrificed literally nothing lol

twilit badger
#

Does it able to one shot

#

Dreg gunners

#

With 1 charge up attack?

proven cipher
#

Like a poor man powersword,

forest coral
#

no but it can two shot them without having to do it

twilit badger
#

No

#

Yes no

forest coral
#

And it can cleave horde

twilit badger
#

There you go

summer prairie
#

it can with proper blessings/perks

forest coral
#

It can cleave through horde and elite

twilit badger
#

Can't even one shot dreg gunners in one charge up

forest coral
#

I don’t know what else you want me to say lmao

#

Can heavy sword do it

#

Or antax

twilit badger
#

And you still saying it sacrificed nothing

forest coral
#

Like bruh

twilit badger
#

Smh

forest coral
#

Think outside the box

honest frigate
#

why does everything have to be overpowered to be considered good

#

Massive copium

summer prairie
#

Illisi can one-shot two or more scab gunners/shotgunners

#

with warp unleashed/stacks or blessings/perks

#

and in addition will one-shot horde

#

with the same swing

twilit badger
#

Define overpowered

proven cipher
#

Kinda wish it got slaughterer or blazing spirit but it will do for now.

forest coral
#

Illisi has similar elite killing power to tac axes

#

Whilst being a horde blender

#

I don’t really see how u can call it weak lol

twilit badger
#

"Horde blender"

Charge up disappears after 1 swing

proven cipher
#

Feels like if you're a Purgatus staff user then the Deimos force sword single target is better

forest coral
#

you literally don’t need to charge up to blend horde

#

You can light spam like hsword

#

And it’ll achieve same result

twilit badger
#

It would have been really nice

#

If it retained single target deletion charge up

forest coral
#

Well something gotta keep it in check

twilit badger
#

Because move set does have wide swings

forest coral
#

This thing can cleave through multiple elites at once with horde when u charge it

#

It’s kinda silly

honest frigate
#

Iirc Illisi has more reach than the powerswords atleast

#

It be long

forest coral
#

deimos will shit on elites faster for sure

honest frigate
#

Hit weakspots with the warp chargeup with the Illisi and youll be fine

#

Run the slaughterer blessing and flak and carapace perks

#

Bloodthirsty and unstable power is good too

forest coral
#

Me waiting for bloodthirsty to show up

summer prairie
#

unstable power probably better now anyway

honest frigate
#

How much do power percentages help with the dmg

#

Is +8% alot?

summer prairie
honest frigate
#

Flak perks?

summer prairie
#

no flak

#

unstable power though

forest coral
#

I think flak is pretty overkill on the sword

uneven drift
forest coral
#

But it can enable one taps

honest frigate
#

Overkill? Why? Its useful on damnation

meager cedar
honest frigate
#

Since you can only swing once you may as well oneshot

forest coral
#

I find maniac a bit better but that’s just me ah

#

Well you swing so fast

meager cedar
#

I kinda wish they just let us say we came from X World and could name them, rather than the set of existing worlds they gave us

forest coral
#

For me flak diff is really minimal since it rekts the flak bois in 2 shots anyway

#

But it’s a valid perk for it tho

meager cedar
#

But I assume we're eventually gonna get Chaos Wastes-style daemonic whispering that makes fun of our characters via their character specific things

forest coral
#

Don’t get me wrong

honest frigate
#

Oneshots are sooo worth it on damnation

#

Slaughterer and flak dmg perk my beloved

ornate hamlet
#

whats the deimos and obscurus crowd control combos

proven cipher
#

So are bloodthirsty and blazing spirit still the best blessing combo for FS?

forest coral
#

Blazing spirit never was

digital pagoda
#

Blazing spirit sucks

forest coral
#

Was always slaughterer/ preference

digital pagoda
#

For hordes

ornate hamlet
#

so spam heavy 1 into light 1?

#

then repeat

#

or

forest coral
#

Yup

digital pagoda
#

I just do heavy + spam light

forest coral
#

Heavy light repeat for diagonals

ornate hamlet
#

and what about the og force sword

forest coral
#

Heavy light rmb cancel heavy light

digital pagoda
#

Spam shove until you can make space to pull out staff

proven cipher
#

Seem like for Purgatus staff main, Deimos sword is best

forest coral
#

Definitely compliments each other very well

#

Deimos also shits on other melee elites because of its dodge distance

#

It’s one of the most comfortable weapons to 1v1 monsties with

proven cipher
#

Also Deimos light deals more dmg than it's heavy

forest coral
#

Ye

#

It’s spear lunge is cracked as fuk

proven cipher
#

Which is perfect for special

forest coral
#

If u crit on headshot on mutie, it’s a one shot

#

without special

delicate smelt
#

Demos heavy 2 is FS saying "whatever idc anymore"

#

Deimos*

forest coral
#

ahaha

proven cipher
#

Yeah all in the first attack

forest coral
#

We definitely got the good end of the patch this time round

proven cipher
#

Special light stab special light stab

forest coral
#

I feel bad for zealots

#

Hammer bros lost their animation cancel

proven cipher
#

Well the fire shotgun seem fun

twilit badger
#

It was a bug so had to go

forest coral
#

Ye

proven cipher
#

Atleast the ways it looks when it fire special bullets anyway

#

Wish they came out with another flamer for zealot

uneven drift
fierce sinew
#

people who hate cancels can go instead

#

tbh

twilit badger
#

Super cheesy things for called to be it's skillz

uneven drift
#

No one called it skill at least here. But this thing at least allow to catch up all broken options this game have. If all weapon would be in line in terms of power i wouldn't say a word about cancels, but like, why would you want to pick something over PS, Antax, Hsword, Deimos and etc.

#

Tanking DHs on any class with any melee weapons and so not only DHs are not cheesy it seems.

ornate hamlet
#

whats the point of deimos light 3 and 4

#

when would you ever use them

spice veldt
#

for groaners and whatnot that get one-shot by lights i suppose

#

they're there if you ever need them, but they don't seem particularly useful

digital pagoda
#

They catch a lot of enemies

#

Remind me of dueling sword lights

ornate hamlet
#

i dont quite like the deimos move set

#

any weapon with useless attacks are imo poorly designed

stray warren
#

Did they increase stagger resist on bursters? My ult doesn't seem to knock them back any more.

spice veldt
#

bursters seem the same to me

steel flame
spice veldt
#

keep in mind that the strength of your ult's stagger scales with the # of warp charges you have

fierce sinew
#

hurrr execution bad, the easy thing must be the good thing durr

ornate hamlet
#

vets 75% damage reduction feat needs to be removed lmao

spice veldt
#

i think the deimos is fine, but I wouldn't want to use a weapon with a sticky special ever again

#

I actually like its moveset

#

esp the heavy->light because holy shit that shit is fast and you don't need to cancel for it

steel flame
ornate hamlet
#

im shocked vet got no nerfs

#

hes in such a terrible spot

twilit badger
#

Complain that to FS

delicate smelt
#

Some people only play vet, if vet got normalized most of them wouldn't bother playing at all.

ornate hamlet
#

vets so busted

steel flame
stray warren
#

You know Vet is a strong class when people are legitimately complaining that the shotguns aren't good. They're so fuckin spoilt for choice.

twilit badger
#

Because shotguns are not that good

#

It needs more ammo pool

ornate hamlet
#

ah yes, the ranged class has one of the best melees in the game and can become tankier than ogryns

steel flame
spice veldt
#

oh yeah I forgot that the 2nd heavy is basically as good as the special

digital pagoda
#

With the deimos I don't even think you need to use special at all, light into heavy on the head oneshots every special, and two shots reapers and bulwarks

#

Heavy 2 damage on headshot is actually ridiculous

twilit badger

Don't mind me. Im just here to sow a little Chaos

Also I felt this chat needed some more middle school energy

I had a fun damnation try yesterday

steel flame
#

Do tell

west galleon
#

3 zealots and me

#

I clutcg hardcore in the first 10 minutes after everyone goes down during a beast spawn

#

Which is bs i should get the penance for that alone

#

And after we finally get to the auspex part of the mission, one zealot runs ahead and fights for his life during a horde, one gets flung off the side by a mutie, i brainfart and do the same and the last guy just goes down in the horde

#

Was fun

steel flame

Sounds like a good time

west galleon
#

Pubs are fun

vale creek
#

i ran into a dh x,x yday

didnt see it

delicate smelt

Going in with a pug fits more into the "rejects who don't really trust each other as far as they can throw them but have no choice but to play ball anyway" kind of thing.

vale creek

we instantly wiped

#

I plaay only pubs

steel egret
#

I do aswell at the moment

spice veldt

i play like a monkey in pubs

Occasionally play with one american guy but he eats floor most of time due using controller and being high

I mean not rn, im at work but its never a bad time to make friends hm

I always type daemonhost on chat in case my teammates have cranked soulja boy or something too loud to hear it or dont have screen turned on.

west galleon
#

Very commendable

delicate smelt
#

Yeah never gonna get people who do that on a game that's heavily focused on audio cues, it's fine if it's up to malice I guess.

halcyon creek
#

I keep tagging the dh until the pug is all past it. Mostly because even I sometimes forget where it is… especially if there’s a roaming pack nearby

delicate smelt
#

I'm sure someone will one day make a mod that warns you on chatbox whenever an elite or a dh is nearby tho.

steel egret
#

Visited below malice difficulty with guy who I was introducing to the game

#

Didnt know daemonhost only killed 1 person in lower difficulties.

halcyon creek
#

It’s been a hot minute since I’ve played a lights-out. You get a bit more tagging in pugs with no lights

delicate smelt
#

You also get a lot more veterans with the accatran, with flashlight on and pointing it at daemonhosts.

hollow current
#

jesus two godlike trauma staves just popped up in the hourly for me. 379 and 375. Damage, charge and AOE max'd on both.

#

Can't wait for hadron to brick them

cyan notch
#

well u only need flurry

delicate smelt
#

Trauma is my guilty pleasure staff, nothing more satisfying than charging a big boom into a horde and watching the ragdolls fly, even if it annoys the zealots.

so cant really brick em

So psyker really good now?

honest frigate
#

Psyker was really good for a long time now

stone pulsar
#

how does kinetic flayer's brain burst works anyways

#

is it instant?

dusky bear
#

yep

#

when it triggers you see the brain burst lighting happen. no peril generation either

stone pulsar
#

ah so its a free warp charge every 15 seconds.

dusky bear
#

pretty much

stone pulsar
#

assuming it kills the target

dusky bear
#

its not bad with purg staff since its basically gaurenteed to trigger ever 15 seconds. but the 6 charges for ascendant blaze is better

weak herald
stone pulsar
#

level 26 atm. trying things out lol

Psyker so good now Im nervous it will be dialed back next update

twilit badger
#

Seriously.

#

Gun psykers

dusky bear
twilit badger
#

Please.

dusky bear
#

please what? use your words

stone pulsar
#

so how many stacks of soulblaze does acsent blaze does?

dusky bear
#

the same as the number of warp charges you have

#

+1 i think

#

or maybe not

#

maybe just does 1 stack when you have no charges

stone pulsar
#

ah

#

4 stacks does not seem too damaging

dusky bear
#

damnit hadron if you could not bend me over just once when i get a good stat roll

dusky bear
#

or at least seriously soften everything up

wicked jewel
#

imo 4 is plenty damaging its not about killing enemies on its own but making them take very little conventional damage to finish off

twilit badger
#

6 stack is totally worth it

#

Deletes hordes and stuff

#

You will be at 6 stacks in 3 seconds

wicked jewel
#

but the new wildfire feat is fun to watch spread lol

twilit badger
#

After using it on horde

dusky bear
#

on damnation 6 stacks dropps a flak shotgunner to 1 health. 4 stacks drops it to half health

#

same with hoard. it outright kills them with 6 stacks but leaves them at half health with 4

ornate hamlet

ima take a screenie of my new forcesword

you cant do anything about it

polar oyster
#

New swords are better than first sword. That thing does more damage on light attacks than most swords do on heavy

ornate hamlet
#

its insane

#

and now with slaughtere

#

and the one perk that makes warp charges scale

#

its fucking retarded good

dusky bear
#

the new pokey one or the hoard clear one?

ornate hamlet
#

pokey is so good

weary idol
#

pokey sword one shotting ragers with 3 warp charges is fascinating ngl

dusky bear
#

stab stab stab

weary idol
#

activation light for flak ragers

#

literally just need a normal heavy for naked ones

polar oyster
#

i like doing engerize hold block to get out of energizing faster to light attack flack armor 1 shotting most things than well you are locked in that target hold block to pull the sword out t tad faster

weary idol
#

and it can do 700 carapace damage too

west galleon
#

Maybe they forgot to adjust the code

late yew
#

Which attacks should i use against horde with blaze 5?

#

Both lights and heavies seem to be good against them

#

also kills with warp charged sword don't seem to trigger warp absorption?

runic stream
#

is focused channeling good

#

purgatus staff

summer prairie
#

yes, but might as well get flurry now

uneven drift
#

It's fine just as comfy emergency option. But if you have some situational awareness and positioning it's not needed.

summer prairie
#

heavy 1 is best, usually you'll just want to activate + heavy 1

#

against low intensity chaining lights is fine

#

and yes, warp absorption doesn't work

cyan notch
#

focused channeling is good

#

lets you play more aggressively

remote raptor
#

is the quell speed on this too low or barely okay

summer prairie
#

quell speed not a big deal now

cyan notch
#

its fine youre mostly quelling 10% from 100% anyway

summer prairie
#

it doesn't affect how long it takes to quell a single tick, just how much you quell per tick

west galleon
remote raptor
#

gon cop that then sine i dont have a good surge yet

summer prairie
#

can't chain staff specials or lmb to trigger flurry anymore

remote raptor
#

oh what

#

then how you supposed to proc it now

#

been away from the game for while

summer prairie
#

staff special, as in poking with your staff

cyan notch
#

by charging it lol

late yew
#

So with new force weapons, you can be fine as using only them now?

summer prairie
#

what

late yew
#

I like using weapons unique to the class

summer prairie
#

oh

#

yes

cyan notch
#

yea no need for muggle weapoms

#

except guns

twilit badger
limber silo
#

Does vet get the duelling sword?

twilit badger
#

Extra ew

remote raptor
limber silo
#

Oh snap duelling sword is psyker unique

twilit badger
#

Yes

#

And it sucks

#

I hate it i hate it i hate it

limber silo
#

Wdym it's pretty good

twilit badger
#

I hate it i hate it i hate it

limber silo
#

Extra mobile, good clear

west galleon
#

I have a voidstrike with surge

#

But it doesnt trigger

limber silo
#

Uncanny helps with heavy armor

west galleon
#

Someone said it would

limber silo
#

What are your perks and blessings?

west galleon
#

Cant remember off the top of my head soz

#

Some weakspot dmg stuff and armored dmg im sure

#

The other is the quell blessing that i know

limber silo
#

Well you have no crit, that's the issue

#

Surge is kinda bad on voidstrike anyways

cloud sequoia
#

le funny soulblaze KEKW_ogryn

limber silo
#

It's alright on trauma, I just wish it was on surge staff

west galleon
#

I figured, but i didnt know it needed synergy with crit to work best

#

That kinda blows

limber silo
#

You only shoot two PRIMARY shots on a crit

#

It does nothing for secondary fire

west galleon
#

I got psyoped

#

Gaslit

limber silo
#

The issue with Surge is that all staves want other blessings more

west galleon
#

Bamboozled

plucky flax
#

My rashad is better.

west galleon
#

I mean im 100% keeping the quell blessing, but im not sure what else to take

#

I dont play enough to actually try all combinations

limber silo
#

Voidstrike, you want transfer peril and prolly nexus

west galleon
#

Thank

limber silo
#

Nexus is just extra damage. It'd be funny to put blazing spirit instead of transfer tho

#

Spicy cannonballs

cold geode
limber silo
#

Also, I've been fiddling with Quicken since the buff. It feels good with voidstrike since it struggles with close range

#

211131 w/ Illisi and Void feels nice

#

I don't have Transfer Peril so I went with absorption

west galleon
#

I like mind in motion

limber silo
#

Mind in Motion is a trap imo

dreamy wharf
limber silo
#

It's a crutch. Learning how to use cover effectively negates the usefulness of Mind in Motion

honest frigate
late yew
west galleon
fluid cove
#

Mind in motion was nice when running through maps with a melee heavy comp because it let you keep up and keep casting. Now that passive and active quell is so much faster, you really don't need it, and the other options are legitimately great

limber silo
#

Also I recommend learning to slide quell

fluid cove
#

And I loved mind in motion, but I changed my build this patch.

#

If you aren't playing like a marth main you aren't playing Darktide right.

honest frigate
#

Im playing like a warp-possessed witch serving the imperium (the voices arent real they arent real they arent rea)

west galleon
#

Im playing like a jackass

#

Because fuck these kids i do what i want

#

I just try to do what feels right in the moment, i dont think i would be able to explain my playstyle

heady swan
#

Are either of the two force swords better than the old one?

#

And why

fluid cove
#

The two new ones are perfectly functional and in no way bugged or broken

spice veldt
#

for hordeclear, illisi is significantly better; and not just because of the cleaving special but because of the first heavy that is spammable as fuck and is a true horizontal

#

but the special no longer deals 200% against flak

#

instead, it seems to do increased damage against Unyielding

#

the downside is that the combos are a little more clunky, as pushing causes you to start from the 2nd attack of the light/heavy chain which tends to be not as good (2nd light comes out slow, and the 2nd heavy is a diagonal instead of a horizontal)

heady swan
#

What is the brain burst threshhold again?

#

I forgot

shy prairie
#

97

spice veldt
#

97% and below

#

though it's got some extra decimal places hidden from you

#

so casting at 97% can still kill you

shy prairie
#

also known as rolling a 0 on perils of the warp

spice veldt
#

i've gambled too much on 97%s and come out the loser many times

#

though, if you perform continuous BBs with kinetic barrage from 0%, the 5th brain burst that is cast at 97% is safe to do

summer prairie
#

If you are just quelling from 100, you can start casting BB as soon as the number goes down. Or just get True peril mod

stone pulsar
#

mutant thrown me off the map

shy prairie
#

mutant chucked someone through the stairs in one of mine

#

i like how the art team bothered to model the parts that nobody gets to see lol

sweet drift
limpid lily
#

wow, the 2 new force swords have built in deflector

#

surely it's not intended

untold meteor
#

So is it just me or is the Deimos Mk IV Force Sword utterly disgusting even without the special

#

that H2 makes me feel something

limpid lily
#

it's suppsoed to be armor piercing thrust combos

#

so yeah

west galleon
#

Hip snap combo

clear hamlet
#

Vet at the start of the mission told us to learn how to play and bb elites, then left. Ogryn bro joins and everything went smoothly

#

Good riddance I say

limpid lily
#

I got 3 vets the other day, triggered daemonhost INSTA LEFT

untold meteor
#

As a vet main, that vet is an idiot

limpid lily
#

left me with 3 bots which died but daemonhost still went after me

finite topaz
#

so fellow psykers did you change your build after patch?

untold meteor
#

I swapped to Warp Unleashed with the single target force sword

limpid lily
#

the Wildfire feat did WONDERS for my Blazing spirit crit build

#

I love it

untold meteor
#

and it's... terrifying

limpid lily
#

dude the Deimos force sword has a bit of sideway strike which can hit Mauler in the body, unlike the Obscurus one (which you could still do but inconsitent)

#

I love the Deimos so much

untold meteor
#

I only charge up the special for mauler

#

I can like 1.1 shot the maniac

#

if the heavy 2 hits headshot

limpid lily
#

heavy special I meant

untold meteor
#

and heavy spam on crusher's head

limpid lily
#

yeha maniacs still need 2 special hits yeah

untold meteor
#

though with 6 stacks I can 2 shot crushers

#

with special

#

i'm more shocked I can one shot nearly everything human sized with the h2 stab

limpid lily
#

takes a bit to get there so Id say not surprising

untold meteor
#

yeah with 6 warp charges and warp unleashed

near wyvern
#

Siblings. I am exploring things for the Atheneum and I found something huge.

#

Wildfire procs off from dead bodies.

summer prairie
#

yeah I noticed

#

takes a while

near wyvern
#

It seems to proc at the time the ticks start to fall off from the body

summer prairie
#

It also looks like they made AB triggering more consistent as well

#

I haven't tested but based on the code I would guess you can get a stack when the dead body loses the soulblaze effect

near wyvern
#

I'll burn a pile of bodies and we shall see

#

I know they said they fixed some staff attacks preventing warp charges through AB so that's probably it, not getting any luck with the bodies

cyan notch
#

too bad i only set it to 1 dead body active only

summer prairie
#

doesn't look like you can get stacks that way, anyway some relevant code was changed which I think was intended to increase consistency

summer prairie
#

I guess it's just checking that the creature is dead and soulblaze expired

#

deimos l1-h2 takes only 14 seconds to deplete Captain's shield, pretty fast. That's with 0 peril and no relevant perks

cyan notch
#

no weakspot either

stone pulsar
#

huh...force swords only give you 2 stamina.

#

which means with no stamina curios you are at...3 max stamina.

cyan notch
#

yes

shy prairie
#

yes

stone pulsar
#

jeez. guess i got to run a stamina curio then

#

1 wound, 1 stamina, 1 health

shy prairie
#

i mean psyker has the stamina regen

stone pulsar
#

oh i know. 0.5 second delay

#

no wonder i feel borked doing melee as vet. they have 1.25 seconds delay

tropic pollen
#

Wut can i get some of that stamina regen startup

stone pulsar
#

two t2 perks

tawdry shell
#

HAHA

#

super unlucky on that one

shy prairie
#

activation -> h1 -> bc

#

bloodthirsty/+slaughterer may be bic

tawdry shell
#

okie

summer prairie
#

if you hold sprint while you are chaining deimos l1+h2, it cancels the combo at some point and you end up with h1+l2 instead, a bit annoying

feral verge
#
  • Stam on psyker isn't bad
#

But I don't find it necessary at all, in my experience

#

Cuz of the Regen being so fast

late yew
#

i am a bit confused, do you vent peril faster with force weapons, or with normal ones now?

summer prairie
#

Everything without the quell stat is the same except BB, I think

#

FF has the same values as the staves but no stat so it's like having 50% quell on a staff

fiery atlas
#

you know what they should've done

#

make illisi special into a combo

summer prairie
#

I'm looking at the numbers and not sure if that's true though

fiery atlas
summer prairie
#

but maybe I don't know how the values are lerped

#

It's probably that

fiery atlas
summer prairie
fiery atlas
#

you can just spam BB and do light venting

cyan notch
#

well you never really had to take out your staff unless you wanted to quell to 0

leaden thunder
fiery atlas
#

like snipers on top of specials incoming

#

with mixed hordes

#

right now it's just viable to quell period

summer prairie
#

Shred not very useful, oh well

cyan notch
#

run it back

leaden thunder
#

it isn't not useful

#

more crit is more damage is moer good

fiery atlas
#

does shred proc on obscurus/deimos special?

summer prairie
#

it's just an elite enemy pokey stick

olive ember
#

probably

fiery atlas
#

and have an obscene amount of bulwarks/reapers

#

otherwise illisi is too good for utility

summer prairie
#

you lose your stacks when you activate the special

fiery atlas
#

what

#

🥹

olive ember
#

yeah

#

chained hit

#

activating your special resets the chain

fiery atlas
#

even if you activate it again?

#

after getting a hit?

#

🥹

summer prairie
#

you wouldn't want to use the special anyway

shy prairie
#

thing can probably do more with l1h1

#

and you don't get stuck

summer prairie
#

l1h2 but yeah, rarely a reason to use the activation

#

maulers and ragers mostly

cyan notch
#

mutie drivebys

summer prairie
#

even ragers don't really need it if you headshot

cyan notch
#

flamers and dogs

summer prairie
#

h2 oneshots flamers with no activation

cyan notch
#

yea but u can just activate slide and stab once

summer prairie
#

but i guess l1 activation is pretty fast

#

yeah that's worth it

shy prairie
#

||it also has deflector built in, tell nobody||

olive ember
#

Was there a consensus on wildfire useful ness?

summer prairie
#

I think it's useful if you can use it while proccing your slaughterer stacks and have other relevant buffs on your weapon

leaden thunder
#

good on blazing spirit builds

#

but not with purge

shy prairie
#

time to try and get bloodthirsty for the iblisi

cyan notch
#

i think its... fine

#

u can get around 4 stacks with power boost stuff

summer prairie
#

I can AB ult with 4 stacks and then just melee with illisi while it keeps spreading until everything within range is dead

olive ember
#

You know what they should do… they should make ranged block innate and make deflector allow for ranged block on revive

#

👍👍

shy prairie
#

like the psykers from astartes..

fiery atlas
stone pulsar
#

by the emperor...

shy prairie
#

me when I get quickplayed into baross damnation-stg for the third time in a row

stone pulsar
#

the mk5 force sword is awesome!

shy prairie
#

sssh

stone pulsar
#

the light attacks even being "assassin" type cleaves a little.

#

2-3 targets i think

shy prairie
#

special -> h1 -> bc

#

rinse and repeat

#

bloodthirsty 100 crit after kill

#

slaughterer too

stone pulsar
#

wait....the force swords don't share blessings?

#

or i did i imagine me having deflector 4

shy prairie
#

horrendous, I know

stone pulsar
#

oh my emperor....

shy prairie
#

it's a different variant, they don't share...

stone pulsar
#

screams

steel egret
#

What

wet jacinth
#

It's fucked

shy prairie
#

I'd say it's insanity but a little too on the nose for a psyker

wet jacinth
#

At least share blessings they have in common.

#

Smfh

olive ember
#

you are imagining things

#

I slapped a t3 slaughterer on my mk V using slaughterer I had from my original FS

steel egret
#

Yeah

#

I did the same

stone pulsar
#

huh ok...i think i literally dreamt that i got t4 deflector

#

smh brain

stray warren
#

The new AoE sword is so beautiful 🥹

steel egret
#

Yes

shy prairie
#

don't put deflector on it..

olive ember
#

kekw

#

Eh deflector on FS are generally a decent choice

stone pulsar
#

nah i play the err...logical one

olive ember
#

I also wouldn't bank on them keeping the built in deflector in

wet jacinth
#

They are hallucinating under the effects of the warp

stone pulsar
#

thats a bug for sure

wet jacinth
stray warren
shy prairie
#

It has built in deflector

wet jacinth
#

Just use ogryn to block ranged

the psyker starts counting and stops at 7

late yew
# cyan notch

yes, i read it. I just does not make sense that non-force quells faster

wet jacinth
#

Ngl im curious now about the Female Psyker ogryn. What if she becomes a daemon host.

west galleon
#

The what

wet jacinth
#

In lore a female ogryn psyker exists

stone pulsar
#

yes. Cassia

west galleon
#

Now thats a truly incomparable mind then

shy prairie
#

is she a byproduct of orks believing she is da strongest and da meanest because she's da biggest

stone pulsar
#

and shes like...twice as smart as a Ogryn with a bone'ead implant

#

she can actually write simple sentences

wet jacinth
#

Iirc she isn't even the smartest ogryn

stray warren
stone pulsar
#

plus non force weapons are not warp attuned so it makes sense that the...warp energy leeches off faster?

wet jacinth
#

Ye

stone pulsar
#

Over the course of two years of repeated studying, the Ogryn eventually taught herself how to read and write in fine calligraphy.

#

big brain

shy prairie
#

when the psyker ogryn hits you with that Terran High Gothic

stone pulsar
#

i read somewhere that since the opening of the great rift, ogryns have been becoming smarter, hence why our character ogryns are smarter then usual.

steel egret
#

I dont think thats

#

Why

wet jacinth
#

One of the voice options iirc has a chip in their noggin.

#

Forget which one

steel egret
#

Some VO are supposedly chipped

stone pulsar
#

only one of them.

#

the other two don't

steel egret
#

I mean I use Bully

wet jacinth
#

One is smarter but not chipped. The other. They're just a pure ogryn

#

Precious big boi

ornate hamlet
#

One of the skins you can buy is a bonehead, so there's that

stone pulsar
#

i rp when i play as them

#

my boi is named Bonk. he likes to bonk heretics on the head with his shovel.

wet jacinth
steel egret
#

I dont think fatshark could come up with a proper explanation to why ogryns dont instantly empty their clip when shooting starts.

#

Since they dont have limiters

ornate hamlet
#

Good point. Maybe these are more disciplined from working under unusual conditions?

leaden thunder
#

I think our ogryns are jsut smart

#

or well

#

less dumb

#

pretty sure they all used to be in the guard

wet jacinth
#

It wouldn't matter anyhow. The ogryn who full autos would just say to the Lil uns "OI NEEDED ET" when picking up all the ammo

ornate hamlet
#

I mean in the TTRPG you'd have smart humans controlling the units, so

wet jacinth
clear hamlet
#

You can see the scoreboard through the tacticool screen in game now

#

I just noticed

ornate hamlet
#

tacticool screen?

wet jacinth
#

did you screen your tacticool?

clear hamlet
#

Ye

#

sucky game

shy prairie
#

forcesword with rending scaling off of warp charges...

steel egret
# leaden thunder less dumb

They cant really make excuse for it, its not any different from if we played as poxhounds and could open doors

#

They have enabled us to play smart ogryns.

#

If our guns turned into melee weapons in middle of firing or we had limiters they would aim for genuine ogryn experience

#

Not to mention fake medals at end of mission

alpine yoke
#

is deflector still a must have?

steel egret
#

But that would probably be less fun to play

steel egret
shy prairie
#

blood thirsty slaughterer iblisi..

alpine yoke
#

Good to know cuz i want re bless my sword with blood thirsty

steel egret
#

Yeah.

alpine yoke
#

beauty

olive ember
#

no slaughterer?

pine relic
#

Is it good

olive ember
#

only problem is that recon lasguns are bad in general

#

up to you if you wanna keep it in case they buff it

#

infernus is def one of the BiS blessings on recon tho

#

so even if you are to scrap it make sure you get that infernus 4 off of it

dark marsh
#

t5 new mode poppped up guys

alpine yoke
#

is earned blessing shared by all characters?

olive ember
#

yes

dark marsh
#

if i remember right yes

olive ember
#

but earned blessings also are only by same type of weapons

alpine yoke
#

great

olive ember
#

so if you get idk slaughterer on a force sword, you won't be able to transfer that to the powersword later

shadow onyx
#

the new obscurus force sword is such a powerhouse

olive ember
alpine yoke
#

I need this for my zealot

olive ember
#

you talking about deimos? or just the buffs that obscurus got

shadow onyx
#

i'm in love man

#

i will play only melee

#

i swear

olive ember
#

You try out the mk V illi FS?

shadow onyx
#

not the ili

#

the other

olive ember
#

ah the deimos

shadow onyx
#

yep

alpine yoke
#

Mark 4 you mean

olive ember
#

I personally hate it but

alpine yoke
#

i love it

shadow onyx
#

i kill everything even without special

#

the light heavy combo is so good

clear heath
#

I love the illi

#

i am addicted to hordes now

silk ridge
#

Do Pox Hounds count towards Pick N' Mix?

clear heath
#

i see a poxwalker horde and i run towards it in excitement

shadow onyx
#

i dont like the spam special thing on the ili

#
  • i play purgatus
clear heath
#

You don't actually have to spam the special all that much

shadow onyx
#

to me it looked like a cheap version of power sword

clear heath
#

it actually works uncharged

#

unlike the power sword

#

you just special at the beginning and then special every once in a while during a fight to keep peril up

olive ember
#

but with a FS

clear heath
#

i really like the feeling of playing around at 100% and making room to special again every time i hit 99%

spice veldt
#

the 1st heavy on the illisi is great

clear heath
#

has a nice rythm to it

spice veldt
#

you can just QQ cancel it repeatedly

olive ember
#

and a bit mroe damage

shadow onyx
#

i dont like theses sword

clear heath
#

it's just so nice for playing at high peril with warp unleashed

cyan notch
#

r slash edging

stone pulsar
#

so about force sword charge ups. they only last for a single strike right

clear heath
#

yeah

alpine yoke
#

Just tried illi mark v

#

im in love

cyan notch
#

what should i change crit to

alpine yoke
#

i need a good one, right now

clear heath
#

idk maybe maniac?

summer prairie
#

if you use wildfire or 4 stacks AB, maybe infested

alpine yoke
#

This is PS but for psyker

cyan notch
#

what does infested do

summer prairie
#

kills them faster/more reliably when they have 4 stacks of soulblaze

stone pulsar
#

so whats the dump stat for the FS? warp resistance?

spice veldt
#

warp res and mobility

stone pulsar
#

ok

spice veldt
#

i prefer having more mobility, so warp res is personally my dumpstat

clear heath
#

same

stone pulsar
#

gotta have that dodge distance to make use of unlimited dodge

clear heath
#

I used to use a force sword with less than 20% mobility

#

never again

summer prairie
#

also more reliably kills 7 poxwalkers per activated swing

clear heath
#

With slaughterer and unstable, I don't think that's a concern

#

probably kills at least 6 of them anyways

stone pulsar
#

so if i put unarmoured on my surge staff and i acendent blaze, soulblaze stacks will deal 20-25% more damage to unarmoured enemies?

cyan notch
#

u can get away with 0 mob on deimos

summer prairie
#

even with 5 slaughter t4 stacks, you'll need to be at high peril to kill 7 without +infested

clear heath
#

imagine not being at 100% peril constantly

summer prairie
#

it's probably possible to have enough +infested/dmg/power that it kills as many as you can cleave

clever lynx
#

what blessings for Deimos FS?

supple skiff
#

so what are the thoughts on the new force swords, haven't had the opportunity to play the patch yet

still apex
#

can we use the shotguns?

unreal dust
#

I like the new single-target one

unreal dust
