10/10
i got the illisi force sword and now i die way more because i keep running ahead to fuel my horde clearing addiction

unreal dust
summer prairie
#

This is close to one-shotting 20+ poxwalkers with slaughter t4, unstable power t4, +infested. Maybe warp charges get you there (not that this is worth it

supple skiff
#

have to say im liking the patch notes so far

clear heath
cyan notch
#

groaners just die i assume

summer prairie
#

it's illisi special active heavy 1 with every relevant blessing+dmg perk+warp unleashed

cyan notch
#

they have like no health

uneven drift
supple skiff
#

not to sure how I feel about the linear quelling on paper though

summer prairie
#

that's just the first 8 targets, it will also cleave another 12+ poxwalkers for 277,51 if weakspot

sacred dome
#

Tried only one game since patch and had cooldown F on the feats, could push almost all the time, basically F ready every time we crossed a corner

clear heath
supple skiff
#

good to know

#

wasn't expecting a buff to the force sword we already have, might make the switch hard lol

clear heath
#

actually i think it's faster entirely anyways

supple skiff
#

ah

clear heath
#

even when quelling from full to 0

#

so it's just straight up better

ornate hamlet
#

So does the illisi keep its charge after the first swing? I'm having a hard time telling visually

cyan notch
#

no

ornate hamlet
#

Doesn't seem anything close to the power sword in terms of horde clearing?

clear heath
#

the thing is it doesn't actually suck uncharged

ornate hamlet
#

So you go in and swing at the horde without charging it again?

#

Chain attacks I mean

clear heath
#

i charge at the he beginning when engaging the fight, and then weave in some charges here in there to maintain high peril

stray warren
#

Its an amazing weapon. Usually I power it up for a heavy swing, follow with a couple lights, you can push to make distance if you want, then repeat.

#

Because you're killing so frequently you're quite often quelling 10% free peril, so you can keep the combo going

#

This patch really has been amazing for Psyker.

ornate hamlet
#

Hmm. What blessings should I aim for?

clear heath
#

if i have F up, i'll edge at 100% peril and time it to special right as i hit 99%

#

very fun

#

slaughterer is a given

stray warren
#

Deflector is always popular.

feral verge
#

Illisi and Deimos has deflector built in.

near gale
#

Wait Quicken makes you generate 2 warp charges now?

feral verge
#

Likely a bug

onyx sentinel
#

Did they buff peril cost for bb and force swords?

supple skiff
#

its in the patch notes as saying it gives 2 now

stray warren
#

Don't go for these cause they fuckin SUCK

#

This sword is going into the trash as soon as I level another

feral verge
#

Precog is bad but executor isn't that bad

can someone tell me what warp unleashed use to do

feral verge

#

Tested out the new swords, not sure what to run with now lol

stray warren
near gale
feral verge
#

Referring to deflector being present on default illisi and deimos

#

Being a bug

ornate hamlet
#

Power swords can deflect? lol

near gale
#

Is Warp Unleashed good now?

rigid widget
#

I love being able to use my charge on elites, but CC on the Illlisi is great too

near gale
#

it says 10-25% damage, not warp damage

stray warren
feral verge
#

It buffs all damage

#

At 0 peril you get a 10% bonus

#

Constant DMG boost

stray warren
#

Unless you're doing a soulblaze meme build (and honestly even then you probably should still use it) its the best talent on that row.

feral verge
#

Up to 25

near gale
#

That sounds like a brain burst buff >.>

stray warren

Can one shot ragers on Damn

Atheneum updated to newest patch.

New information includes but not limited to:

  • New BB break points with WU
  • Wildfire and the oddities around it
  • Stacking CDR curios with Quickening is waste of a perk

dusk zephyr
#

Its ridiculous when using purg staff aswell lol

feral verge
#

Thanks again pygex

uneven drift
#

What feats people running nowadays?

stray warren
#

Wildfire is a very fun little perk though. I don't know if its really better than the other two, but it is very good for keeping constant soulblaze up in a horde.

near gale
#

So with the changes to peril is Kinetic Shield worth using as well?

near wyvern
supple skiff
#

well guess Im not using inner tranq anymore

near wyvern
#

for purge not that much since it has a hard cap of 4 stacks

near wyvern
#

just too good to pass by, increases your BB break points even without warp battery

#

or CL

stray warren
#

My build hasn't really changed. I'm still unsure about 4th tier but I've been having good luck with this setup.

near wyvern
#

why not psykinetic's aura

supple skiff
#

suppose that leaves me with the question as to whether I should keep using warp battery then

near wyvern
stray warren
#

Actually yeah good point.

#

I usually run Communion for the extra little bit of toughness regen, but having the quicker ult would be way better.

near wyvern
#

hard to say if battery is worth it or not for somebody since it depends what you do

near gale
#

Which force sword is good vs hordes again?

feral verge
#

Illisi

near wyvern
#

Illisi is ez

#

that's how you remember

stray warren
#

Mark V if you don't want to remember the made up moon runes

feral verge
#

Illisi is great with warp unleashed and unstable power

#

Because you chain charge it for rapid peril gain

near wyvern
#

and slaughterer

#

mmh

feral verge
#

As seen in my video

stray warren
#

Honestly its going to be hard to ever go back to the dueling swords now

near wyvern
#

I have slaughterer 3 deflector 4 on mine

hybrid solstice
#

What's the max damage bonus on unstable power again

near wyvern
#

with +infested and +unarmoured

feral verge
#

Yee I run slaughterer 3 and unstable 3 on mine

near wyvern
stray warren
near wyvern
#

+5%

supple skiff
#

damn thats a lot of peril

hybrid solstice

#

this is bad FS porn

feral verge
#

So 20%

Does anyone have a video of the Seer male/female when they go into overcharge? I want to hear the noises they make.

feral verge
stray warren
#

Not for any sexual reason, just to sate my curiosity.

clear heath
#

can just keep stroking your sword until you're ready to explode

Look in my video

You will see it stack

Right above hp

Stacks 4x

fucking joi in the title

ornate hamlet
#

So besides the new weapons and the quelling, did they buff anything else on the psyker?

near gale
#

Wow the new force sword can murder hordes

stray warren
#

A bunch of perks.

near gale
#

What's a good staff with it?

hybrid solstice

#

I've honestly been rocking Trauma staff. Just seems fun with the horde beater.

stray warren
fiery atlas
#

or rather, mixed horde funny

fiery atlas
#

listen

#

8% on deimos

#

special

#

goes bonke

stray warren
#

Well thats great buddy but its on a fuckin ILLYSILLY

fiery atlas
clear heath
#

it's not even really 8%

fiery atlas
#

oh on illisi?

#

yeah no don't run it on illisi

clear heath
#

it's 8% of the portion of damage that got added by a crit/weakspot

#

not on the base damage

stray warren
#

WHY DO YOU THINK I WAS DISAPPOINTED

fiery atlas
near gale
#

tfw this is your first illisi and it still isn't all that bad...

dusk zephyr
#

Where big force greatsword

fiery atlas
stray warren
#

I just got a 360 with 20% unarmored on it. It could be the one.

stray warren
near gale
#

I mean 43% first target is at least still 1.17x damage

(coping)

stray warren

lol

near gale
#

Honestly I'm tempted to bring this instead of a staff, lol

willow hazel
near gale
#

but this is still my best staff, sadly...

near gale
supple skiff
#

So from where I'm sitting it looks like we're really only missing a single target dps staff as far as our kit goes

near gale
#

Yeah, like the bolt staff

#

vt1 and 2 had that

dusk zephyr
#

got this badboy from melk yesterday

stray warren
#

Single target DPS staff is kind of redundant, with BB and all.

willow hazel
#

With pinning 3 and unarmored damage, AB will one tap all normal enemies with only 4 stacks

montrosities would like a word

aight this is starting to piss me off

stray warren
#

I would prefer a staff that could make a single enemy become friendly :^)

spice veldt
#

no friendship

steel flame
#

is anyone else started having slight server lag and screen tearing since the update?

fiery atlas
#

you could always ask the zealot to just not flame everything

steel flame
#

i cannot figure out what is causing it

fiery atlas
#

that's one way

stray warren
#

Imagine making a friendly reaper in the middle of a horde

IM LOSING MY MIND

yeah i've been lagging a bit

like wtf

its almost unplayable, is sooooooo annoying

its just stuttering n

mind control a gunner, it shoots its allies around it.

steel flame

nonstop any time litterally anything happens

near gale
#

Imagine a blightstormer type staff

stray warren
#

That would actually be so fuckin good. Mind control is canon in 40k as far as I know as well.

makes a poison/fire storm

so what exactly does the alt fire on the stabby force sword do

ah, so new claymore it is then

austere estuary
near gale
fiery atlas
#

this isn't real!!!!!

austere estuary
#

That said, I discovered you actually need 25% flak + 6 charges + 5 slaughterer

mortal crest
austere estuary
#

To hit 450 on a light swing

fiery atlas
#

so you're telling me a flak armored this enemy

mortal crest

That thing probably fucks pretty hard on 5 stacks of slaughterer IV.

the secret, ladies and gentlemen: bloodthirsty

#

Since i've not played in a while, what is the basic difference between the new force sword variant?

ornate hamlet
#

What's the difference between the obscurus and the deimos force swords?

fiery atlas
mortal crest
austere estuary
#

The exorcist means you can charge, heavy, light on head, repeat

stray warren
#

One makes me want to keep playing the game, and the other is old and busted.

austere estuary
#

And it one shots ragers

#

Nearly one shots muties

#

It’s going to get nerfed imo

hard breach
#

So Obscurus is better for single-target?

summer prairie
#

Deimos has very high single target damage on l1 and h2. H2 is close to being as high as activation damage and doesn't lock you in place. It also has higher dodge range and speed (based on mobility)

austere estuary
#

Like being THAT good at single while also cleaving

summer prairie
#

Obscurus doesn't have much going for it except better horde clear

austere estuary
#

Makes the Deimos kind of obsolete

stray warren
#

Damn dude did you just start playing Veteran and using the Power Sword?

austere estuary
#

It’s like power sword plus plus

#

Slaughterer makes even its light attack spams rinse

stray warren
#

If Catfish is reading any of this, Dave is crazy. Don't nerf Psyker stuff.

hard breach
#

Thoughts?

austere estuary
#

I’m crazy

#

Good point

shadow onyx
#

deimos is better imo

austere estuary
#

imo if you get a good illisi you’re set

near gale
#

Fuck I have to choose between t3 Deflector and t3 Slaughterer

austere estuary
#

Exorcism lets you ride max peril easily too

stable silo
#

hey very dave

near gale
#

I know t3 slaughterer is amazing... but... the safety...

stable silo
#

look at this bad boy that would have set me 4 eva i just keep looking at it killing my soul

austere estuary
#

Slaughterer imo

supple skiff
#

we are, despite what the zealots and crayon eaters say, allowed to have nice things

shy prairie
stable silo
shadow onyx
austere estuary
#

Oh that’s p nice

summer prairie
#

and obscurus horde combo is painful anyway

cyan notch
#

yea and its lights are F tier for horde

stable silo
#

and of course i bought a amazing void staff right before...i woulda took the sword

supple skiff
#

Fixed an issue with the Munitorum Mk VI Power Sword where the Weapon Special didn’t deactivate when continuously landing successful heavy attacks. LMAO

austere estuary
#

Reminds me though

#

Did they do some kind of thing with unstable power, like stacking?

supple skiff
#

vets were fucking going off apparently

stable silo
#

4% per peril breakpoint

austere estuary
#

Ahhh

#

Man that’s great

stable silo
#

16% power at 80 peril pretty sure

cyan notch
#

20

stable silo
#

so the trick is to spam the special cause u cant go over 100

#

oh its 100

austere estuary
#

Yeah that’s godlike

cyan notch
#

no its 5% per threshold at t4

austere estuary
#

I’d take that with slaughterer maybe

stable silo
#

yeah lol some people are memeing it with shred and blazing soul

austere estuary
#

Though exorcist DOES mean you can Special every 2nd swing instead of every 4th/5th

stable silo
#

or blazing spirit whatever gives burn stax on crit

viral solstice
#

thats not a meme

#

thats fire sword

stable silo
#

u can speical every hit cause sword act doesnt go over 100

viral solstice

#

dammit crab

#

i thought u were sleeping

ready to fire sword

austere estuary
stable silo
#

ya but if u special at 99 u wont

shadow onyx
#

i just wanna do my contracts grimoires/script without shit tons of power outtage

stable silo
#

the passive peril drop will save u

austere estuary
#

No

clear heath
austere estuary
#

Passive peril drop takes time compared to exorcist

stable silo
#

i think the peril will drop faster than your swing

austere estuary
#

No

#

I tested it

stable silo
#

cause passive peril drop buff

clear heath
#

your swings aren't that slow

stable silo
#

at least 1 point

#

oh really

austere estuary
#

You can fit 4 swings in

cyan notch
austere estuary
#

With exorcist you can drop that to just the one swing non special

supple skiff
#

anyone have a pic of the new cleave swords attack pattern chart, would check myself but Im at work ogryn_pathetic

austere estuary
clear heath
austere estuary
#

Yeah they’re not bad

alpine yoke
#

just did a run with mark v fs

austere estuary
#

Not bad at all

#

But nice when facing beefier targets to be able to throw it out more

cyan notch
alpine yoke
#

I think it lack the heavy power

austere estuary
#

It’s minimum 3 swings

summer prairie
#

or you can quell for 275ms

austere estuary
#

Lacking heavy power is not what I’d describe nearly one shorting a mutie and one shotting ragers

supple skiff
#

anyone try the cleave with warp absorption?

austere estuary
#

While also cleaving

summer prairie
#

it doesn't work

near gale
#

The Purgatus is good vs Monsters, right?

summer prairie
#

Not really

#

but it's ok

near gale
#

Oh

austere estuary
#

Flurry trauma is very good vs monsters

#

Everything else is kinda so so

stable silo
#

they really need to let u lock in 1 item from melks shop haha maybe spent some ordos or something

near gale
#

These are my staff options rn, lol

austere estuary
#

That’s a nice purg

near gale
#

I know lol

austere estuary
#

And a great surge

near gale
#

Yeah

austere estuary
#

I’d consider flurry + peril res on the surge

#

Instead of Nexus

near gale
#

Does Warp Flurry now work?

austere estuary
#

Yes

stable silo
#

they fixed it

near gale
#

oh fuck yeah

#

but warp unleashed...

austere estuary
#

It’s very good t4 on every staff, but really best paired with peril res as that compounds with the cast time reduction

near gale
#

10%-25% damage lol

austere estuary
#

You get so many more full charge casts off

#

At double speed

#

With much less reload time

#

MUCH less

#

So your overall damage is going up up up

#

While also less downtime and more cc time

near gale
#

I have t2 warp flurry

austere estuary
#

Oof

near wyvern
#

sadness

near gale
#

ikr?

austere estuary
#

Yeah t4 is huge

near wyvern
#

you need to pledge all your hard earned plasteel to hadron and you will end up in the same place as the true masters

austere estuary
#

I think at t2 it’s not so clear cut vs warp unleashed

near wyvern
#

over 12k diamantine, 0 plasteel

near gale
#

wtf is this autopistol, Melk?!

austere estuary
#

Hadron literally just spat t4 warp flurry at me recently for all the staffs

#

From like 5 upgrades alone

cyan notch
#

i had 3m dockets and 29k plasteel 50k diamantine before this patch now i have 300k dockets 4k plasteel and 44k diamantine

near gale

wait holy fuck

Damn 44k diam, you been playin

#

really hope I don't need to burn that much for the new sword lmao

near gale
#

I have to get to work asap

austere estuary
#

Excellent

#

Perfect stat spread

#

And perk and bless

#

Well not perfect

#

But really great

#

fiery atlas
#

YOU CANNOT RUN AWAY WITH THAT ILLISI SWORD CRAB

viral solstice
#

IM RUNNING LIKE MY HERO NARUTO Q SHIPPUDEN FROM THE HIT ANIMATION SERIES BORUTO

spice veldt
pale matrix
#

does warp fullry reduce perils?

spice veldt
grizzled birch
#

For re-blessing, if I first re-bless my weapon replacing salvo with tier 2 warp flurry, later on if I get tier 3 or tier 4 warp flurry can I re-bless again replacing the warp flurry tier 2 with tier 3 and 4?

spice veldt
#

and since flurry shortens the amount of time you spend charging, it reduces peril generated

austere estuary
#

Also more casts between reloads = more chances to proc kill reduction

spice veldt
austere estuary
#

= even greater damage output and cc over time

pale matrix
#

which force staff do you guys reckon is best?

austere estuary
#

Trauma imo

supple skiff
#

team void

spice veldt
#

I like trauma for anti-shooters

#

the stagger is extremely good

pale matrix
#

how is trauma anti-shooter?

austere estuary
#

Trauma kind of does it all

spice veldt
#

fast charge and generally hits the breakpoints for one-shotting dreg/flak stalkers/shooters/bruisers with a little push

runic flint
spice veldt
#

the outer radius will interrupt the volley of shooters if sufficiently charged, even if it doesn't do that much damage

austere estuary
#

Stagger vs anything, infinite target, great damage, rending for team

spice veldt
#

it's a staff that allows you to be very aggressive against ranged enemies

austere estuary
#

Clears hordes and kills elites

spice veldt
#

it does suffer from the problem of having a terrible aiming system

#

and this lends itself to being very good or meh depending on the map

#

but I generally prefer it even on the bad maps for it

austere estuary
#

Less prone to that than say purg or surge though

summer prairie
#

illisi + trauma with blazing spirit/nexus is fun

austere estuary
#

But yeah there’s literally no enemy trauma can’t handle

#

Also does best Monster damage

pale matrix
#

i thought soul blaze was trash?

austere estuary
#

While ccing other nearby

sacred dome
#

Trauma and Void go boom

spice veldt
#

only the beast of nurgle seems to take extra damage from trauma

shy prairie
#

give me the 4-1-1 on this staff, melk's cabinet of curios is tempting me again

austere estuary
#

The only catch with trauma is how much it needs good stats and blessing

spice veldt
#

e.g., the charge rate stat scales the charge time from 2.5 seconds to 1 second

clear heath
spice veldt
#

o yeah, I was referring to among the monstrosities

clear heath
#

o

austere estuary
#

And aoe stat also important

pale matrix
#

any advice for getting the kill a monster with brainburst penance?

spice veldt
#

epicentre scales from 2 to 4, and outer radius scales from 4 to 10 (i think)

austere estuary
#

Yeah and that’s radius so double effect on diameter

spice veldt
#

or quadratic if we're talking about area

spice veldt
austere estuary
#

Testing in psyk really highlights how it matters as well, dropping to like 60 (memory fuzzy) means you can’t get the two slightly spaced for example

#

Meanwhile 80 blast areas and you can evaporate packs easily

#

100 will be great

#

Same for charge speed

spice veldt
#

the whole world shall be blown up

#

quell speed will be amazing once we get 100% on it

austere estuary
#

We may never quell though

#

At .5s charge, with 100 warp res and bigger aoe for popping more kills

#

Already close to tipping point in busy situations

spice veldt
#

i'd probably treat my warp res as my dumpstat if we ever get 100% quell speed because of quietude

austere estuary
#

20-30 casts

fiery atlas
austere estuary
#

I think it might hit the point of ‘we will have ult ready as a mid fire reload’

classic quote

#

it's a dangerous world out there

weary idol
#

man the deimos just rips through elites like a knife through butter

#

it feels so good to use

austere estuary
#

Yup

#

It’s insane

#

Light heavy

weary idol
#

still has like alright horde clear too

austere estuary
#

Biggest of stabs

weary idol
#

heavy into 3 light

#

reminds me a lot of the rapier from VT2

#

including the one shotting annoying berserker enemies bit

austere estuary
#

Though I like it’s a bit weaker at hordes than a good illisi is at elites

#

Outside of crushers maybe

#

So I hope they buff its st more

#

Or better yet give it a special no stick charge

#

Like the illisi has but for st

umbral jetty
#

thats pretty much a perfect stat roll though. low warp resistance means more peril which means more toughness

weary idol
#

yeah the special on deimos is kinda just

#

I really only use it for flak ragers and maulers

#

also crushers

austere estuary
#

Flak ragers getting one shot by illisi while it cleaves

sonic coral
#

The recent psyker buffs have made it actually feel powerful and fun to play, which makes me think it's only a matter of time until a "mistake" gets patched out and fucks it all up

austere estuary
#

Makes me especially think Deimos should have a better special

umbral jetty
#

deimos special exists so you can cycle special for free toughness regen

sonic coral
#

Not that it wasn't fun/potentially powerful before, but only with a handful of builds

weary idol
#

warp unleashed applying to all damage is nuts

#

imagine just no having a passive 49% damage boost for existing

sonic coral
#

That's almost guaranteed getting nerfed to like 5%

#

Assuming they keep it at all

#

(it's basically doing double duty on warp charges at this point)

austere estuary
#

Warp unleashed needs to be strong to compete with flurry + res

weary idol
#

correct

austere estuary
#

So I’m glad it’s good

weary idol
#

and even still i'm also finding a use for wrack and ruin with the new wildfire feat

austere estuary
#

Also great for if you don’t have flurry 4

weary idol
#

cause 2 BB will somewhat reliably kill every single trash enemy in a horde and then some

#

y'know provided there's like a bulwark or something

sonic coral
#

yea especially on hi you can basically BB exclusively and burn the entire room down

austere estuary
#

Psyker imo in a very strong position rn

#

Like really the class can do it all

sonic coral
#

I can't imagine FS will actually let this fly for long, although considering how long Vet has gone I guess it's theoretically a possibility

austere estuary
#

They buffed flamer while knowing its great

#

They’ve clearly stated erring on the side of buffing

#

Started *

sonic coral
#

yea, I assume that's because they know higher difficulty/ies are on the way at some point

austere estuary
#

Only catachan swords languish now

sonic coral
#

if every class isn't at least reasonable to play on damnation then they're going to be really mad when it gets more difficult

austere estuary
#

Yeah

sonic coral
#

(granted, IMO they're all playable on dam now, but they're definitely not equal)

austere estuary
#

Though all classes definitely have something they do better than others

#

i think psyker is stronger than it needs to be at this point
people are gonna want that higher diff soon

T5 blessings and perks Pog

Still irks me that what appears to be the t5 perk icon is used for all curio main stats regardless of their actual tier

#

vet is also stronger than it needs to be
so is flamer

#

multiple things can be op

wide tiger
#

Yeah ok... I'm more talking about general output

#

Pub psykers perform a lot worse than pub vets and zealots, at least in my experience, so opinion based

#

Or they did, anyways

clear heath
#

they probably still do on average

#

since a lot of people are just testing the new weapons out of excitement

wide tiger
#

It's nice to have a good melee

#

Vet had psword, zealot Hsword, ogryn bb

clear heath
#

i imagine the average psyker player to have gotten worse since it got a lot of people who wouldn't normally play it to try

#

at least temporarily

wide tiger
#

That's true for all classes though. People say vet op, so lots of new ppl try it

#

But even bad vets can do good numbers

#

Had a Psyker with surge staff in t5 do 57k damage total over the run

clear heath
#

I'm getting games with a lot of psykers now likely cause of the new shit

#

with games having 3 psykers, usually there's like 1 bad one

#

So... I've been playing with Wildfire perk. 4 stacks of soulblaze 'spread between' enemies ... ... and I have to say I kind of hate it.

#

It afflicts multiple targets. So it means multiple enemies have little baby stacks of 1-2 each

#

If that

near gale
#

lol I did this with an autopistol psyker XD

#

Just green

unreal dust
#

I thought maybe it'd be nice with Soulblaze Blessing on Force Sword... ... but only transferring 4 stacks is so very, very limiting when the sword itself can go up to 10 stacks

near gale
#

wtf is this? The game is giving this to my Psyker... -_-

unreal dust
#

Has anybody had a better experience with Wildfire or am I missing something?

This feels like one of the best builds I can even make, with a gun psyker...

wide tiger
wet belfry
#

I think ascendant blaze would be stronger

#

though it depends mainly on what gun your using

near gale
#

Doing 10%-25% more damage with the autopistol on top of the up to +16% damage feels good

near gale
#

it slaps, even as a green one

wet belfry
#

Pinning fire affects ascendant blaze.

wet belfry
#

Psyker abillty procs pinning fire.

unreal dust
#

If he's not going Kinetic Battery, he's not going to have enough stacks to insta-clear horde with Ascendant Blaze anyways

wet belfry
#

Thats what pinning fire does

#

It affects ascendant blaze

near gale
#

it procs the warp charges?

wet belfry
#

No it boosts the flame damage

near gale
#

And what is going to cause the fire?

wet belfry
#

Ascendant blaze

unreal dust
#

I think he's fine with Quicken and maybe swapping to Cerebral Lacerations over Communion

near gale
#

I would definitely consider cerebral for anything higher than malice

#

Most malice enemies just die to brain burst, tho

#

Except ogryn elites

unreal dust
#

Oh, I only really play on damnation these days.

#

Lower difficulties do whatever feels good

near gale
#

I am mostly trying to get contracts done quickly, for a melk item atm

#

Just testing the autopistol

#

This thing, in the mean time, is pretty nice

wet belfry
near gale
#

The reason I like psychic communion is 2 warp charges from each proc because of quicken

#

With the autopistol I don't really have to brain burst anything (on malice) :3

Theres likely some breakpoints with tier 4 pining fire which i dont reach

what perks and blessings are people expecting for illisi?

i'd say unstable power for the other blessing

#

normal sequoia
#

psyker bros, want to give the new deimos and illisi swords a try but kinda unsure on how to build them. I am assuming Slaughterer is a must, but what about the second blessings? And as for perks, is it flak/maniac/unarmoured as usual?

spice veldt
#

since bloodthirsty got nerfed and unstable power got fixed, I'd say Unstable Power for the 2nd blessing
I'd personally prioritize +maniac as usual

#

the 2nd perk will depend since the Illisi's special doesn't deal extra damage to flak as far as I can tell

wide tiger
#

Unstable power basically

spice veldt
#

and Deimos' special seems the same as Obscurus?

wide tiger
#

Although unstable power is small compared to slaughterer

#

Kinda wonder who crunches the numbers over there at fs

normal sequoia
#

alright, thanks guys

#

back to Hadron's casino crafting hollowing

magic burrow
#

gunpsyker with the shredder is wild fun

steel flame
#

illi is so incredibly spammable

#

that every other hit will be full crits

#

and the other will be a special

#

its stupid how spammable the special is

#

if you have ult you can special spam your way to an entire horde

#

no problem

near gale
#

gun psyker seems pretty good, at least with the autopistol

steel flame
#

its probably the strongest psyker build right now

near gale
#

the autopistol is just good, though, so that helps

I like how they still don't let us see which mission type we need out of 7

you can have 13 second ults get massive health back on demand

dont really need it tbh

why stop there screw cerebral and go cdr

steel flame
#

but warp siphon works great too

steel flame
#

no reason no to take it

spice oar
#

siblings what do thou think of las pistol

steel flame
#

is great

#

not as great as auto though rn

stable silo
#

after BB pops

near gale
#

autopistol procs the 10% very fast

steel flame
#

flayer pops as soon as its off cooldown

stable silo
#

i know but most things will be dead regardless after a BB and auto dump

steel flame
#

so on mutants it must eviserates them

#

and ogryns

near gale
#

For heresy and higher I do agree with cerebral

steel flame
#

and bosses

stable silo
#

true it helps with the bosses i guess

near gale
#

Doesn't the 25% help teammtes, as well?

steel flame
#

yep

near gale
#

Imagine a thammer with that boost on the monster XD

stable silo
#

it does its strong vs bosses ok with ogryns and a waste with everything else

near gale
#

Helps waste less ammo on muties, by a fraction

gilded viper
#

how good is unstable power?

cyan notch
#

i think psykers can use whatever now since bb and warp unleashed are good and force swords arent shit now

stable silo
#

stax per peril breakpoint

#

maxes at 80%+ pretty sure

spice oar
steel flame
#

build for crits

#

crits crits crits

#

all the crits

stable silo
#

and blazing spirit

near gale
#

I mean using 15 ammo as opposed to 20 adds up if you had to kill 30 muties that way x.x

cyan notch
#

u cant really build for crits

steel flame
#

yeah you can, with 5% crit perk you have 25% crit chance

#

so infernus and crit regen is great

cyan notch
#

yeah thats not really building into anything thats just putting one perk on your gun

@near wyvern

what would you do with these perks

which one should i swap/change to a t4

Honestly perks don't matter shit on IFS. It just slaps regardless. Perhaps unyielding into +crusher.

I mean +carapace but same thing KEKW_ogryn

Too much warpium

aight thanks

still hearth

Though I guess if you do only 4 stacks

Its worth it

I wasted like 40k plasteel alone on void to get surge blessing

#

Only 2 T4 blessings

#

No surge

#

Surge is just not that good.

still hearth
#

Shhh

#

Let them suffer.

twilit badger
#

But

#

It looks

#

Fun

still hearth
#

The 30% chance to do like 2.2x damage

#

At least Transfer Peril isn't that necessary now with peril management being a joke

#

But it does let you keep Flurry up indefinitely

#

Playing at 80% peril for the chance to do a bit more damage (except that Flurry lets you shoot nearly 2x as fast negating the benefit)

#

Seems, uh

near wyvern
#

Psykers suffering from success, void kills so much it actually lowers the damage cause peril never gets high staregryn

still hearth
#

Psyker could use some nerfs you're right

still hearth
#

Maybe the ult should only remove 25% peril and BB should cost 90% peril

summer prairie
#

surge/nexus void is good, possibly better than transfer peril/flurry if you animation cancel

still hearth
#

I don't think I believe you

summer prairie
#

you save like 0.400+s when you cancel

#

and only some of the time between shots is charging so it's not like you shoot 50% faster with max stack flurry

still hearth
#

If you don't charge your shots suck though

stable silo
#

what stats is better for the ol purge

summer prairie
#

i mean you animation cancel after full charging

still hearth
#

Like I use the non-charged shots sometimes

#

Ah, yeah.

#

I get what you mean then.

#

Well the charge time is 2s at lowest charge speed iirc

#

So you save 1s with max Warp Flurry

#

Or something like that.

#

So you could produce a similar result with Nexus/Surge but you also don't have Transfer Peril, so you will have to quell

#

Unless you get lucky

summer prairie
#

you'll ult more and are free to use your melee/bb when it seems more optimal without losing stacks

#

I mean I'm not sure if it ends up being better yet

still hearth
#

I can see them being close.

summer prairie
#

you'll also get more crits of course

still hearth
#

But Flurry/Transfer is far more braindead

#

Which I will always appreciate

#

I'm already playing 4D chess on Psyker

Regarding dmg resistance on curios. What is the type that protects against most? Mutants?

still hearth
#

Mutants is the worst

#

Sniper because they do a fuckton of damage

#

Gunners because they're the most plentiful.

#

Flamer and Bomber kinda sucks and might not even work.

#

Dogs doesn't work I think.

#

Mutants do 20 damage per hit when they grab you, up to 3 hits.

why cant we just choose....

WHY MUST IT BE RNG

that literally take any of them

all of them are good

all of them are functional

that deimos has a poopy damage and first target roll

so ur not gon use it

so actually getting stacks going

toughnes regen

Sniper Resistance

And just BB twice before pulling out my gun

near gale

I generally just gun most targets cuz it's faster >.>

steel flame
#

if it was on ogyrn id say go sniper resist

still hearth
#

Have you considered

#

Playing Veteran?

steel flame
#

but toughness regen is much better for psyker

still hearth
#

Toughness regen is garbage on Psyker if you run staff

#

Idk how you need to regen toughness outside of quelling

near gale

#

Well, there you go. Play Veteran and make them have the Psyker voicelines

#

And you'll enjoy it more

but I am after a force sword atm XD

Sniper resist is a good choice since psykers have such shitty hp >.>

psyker has enough stam regen

stam regen is only good for a little bit smoother MKV axe pushattack spamming

I think my ideal curio is Revive Speed, Sniper Resistance and Gunner Resistance, with one curio having Stamina Regen

#

our stamina regen delay is short, but our stamina regen is still 1 bar/s

I have this in the making, tho

Having 10% stamina regen is enough to get stamina back directly after a slide

Quietitude is meta. There are very few builds now where you don't run Quietitude and WU.

Quelling is faster than ever so might as well generate more peril to pump out more damage and generate more toughness.

In terms of an anti-gunner Psyker is surge still king? Or does gun psyker have a bit more weight nowadays? I've played around with the autopistol and I've found it has some accuracy issues when faced with medium distance gunners. Laspistol is interesting with ghost and supression removal but is no where near as powerful as vet's.

So Illisi can get from 0 to 100 in around 4 econds.

For a gunker your fastest quell is IFS or BB hands manual which is 3 seconds. Worst case is 2 times filling up peril bar and 2 times quelling so that's 14 seconds. Best case (without ult) is you already have a 100 peril so 10 seconds to top up.

Essence Harvest worst case is you don't have it proc so 3 seconds to cast a BB and then you can make it back to back regardless of peril since it lasts for 5 seconds. You get 30 peril per 5 second or in other words 6 peril per second. That's 19.7 seconds in the worst case and 16.7 seconds in the best case.

There you go, gunker has absolutely no reason to run essence harvest. If you are a gunker without an IFS I don't know what the heck you are doing.

idk, 25% more crit

They should make mind in motion something special for quelling

may as well grab speedload instead

like you stay at high peril but you have huge peril resist at high peril or something

some way to keep peril up high

for those who dont utilize peril as much, or just have BB for peril gen

You could just keep bbing at 100% and then use a nearby interactible to cancel
