this is for the people that think surge staff is just utility, friggin nerds
Melky and his complete lack of force weapons
Corruption Resistance no longer works on Grimoires, yeh?
cmon my guy
There's always been corruption resistance (Grimoires). Did reg resist also work in the past?
Ya
comms plex is a good map for surge. gunners love to run and hide on the final area. they get destroyed if they're scabs
In fact, Grimoire Resistance used to do next to nothing
It just increased the time between each corruption tick
oof
just testing in the psykanium, corruption resist at the very least affects the initial corruption that you gain from grimoires
The Man-Emperor of Mankind blessed me with this Curio and I was just thinking to replace Corruption Resistance with Toughness Regen
Which are the bis blessings for MKV Blaze Force Sword?
slaughterer and unstable power/bloodthirsty probably
I was thinking about that. Bloodthirsty on Illisi would be insane
though the special has a reduced crit multiplier, and further cleave targets have a reduced crit multiplier
Anyone have a picture of the trauma soulzblaze build feats?
Drat
blazing spirit 3/nexus 4 and pray for crits?
for normal attacks beyond the first target, the crit multiplier at 80% finesse is along the lines of 1.15x instead of the full 2.3x
not negligible, but I'd prefer Unstable since I'm not always using the special
What's the general consensus on trauma staff now with the peril drain buffs?
good before, better after I'd think
I think it's pretty swell
trauma is one of the better performing staves with purge now
now imagine if you used purga
Purge Purgatus
purgatus is 100% a cop out for a simple easy build, like so many other builds do way more and are more versatile, but harder to put together
what are the best perks to have on purgatus staff
nah i think purga is tied with trauma for most versatile
I like my Deimos/Voidstrike setup
with purga + deimos oyu can do everything
crit chance, unarmored, maniac, flak
yeah tbh using staves on psyker is a major crutch and just amplifies bad play
I kept getting told I don't know what I'm doing when I'm using my MG XII on my Psyker
thats a lil cursed
Psyker gets Ogryn Machine gun
Siblings, I promise you are gonna luv this
This is the story of a Force Sword which was rejected even before arriving. However, this shiny blade proved us all wrong with the mighty speed of warp and a jab that hits like a truck.
Hahah you got a like ๐๐ป now
@near wyvern did they forgot to put limit on the doge?
Looks@funny
Limit on doge?
lol
lol just upgraded this ๐
just put slaugt on mine about the same stats too, taking a break then gonna KEK the game
i think you want flak maniac so preference then
yeah you might be right on that one after some testing in the meatgrinder
3 wounds, make ur healthbar a ruler
pretty cool
How viable is Blazing Spirit Voidstrike with Wildfire feat?
sniper patrol vent is fucking B O N K E R S
damn
the sniper placement is fuckin beautiful
congalines of em
or that one spot at the dropdown where they just formed a wall
yeah I shot like 3 that were standing in eachother then
i thought sniper patrol would be like 3-4 the first time i played it
boy how wrong i was
i tried it on low int and there were still like 10 of them per patrol
Though I am slightly disappointed as I was expecting randomized sniper nests guarding certain points in the fog
or if someone triggers a daemonhost
same here
Instead we get a dozen snipers charging our Operatives haha
the funny part was there was one behind us at one point that didnt walk forward until the patrol started
i was praying to god it went for the ogryn instead of me on the second kill
and then it just left
yeah lucky I got shot in the side of the head as I watched the demonhost go after the zealot
I think if there's noone around and noone else damaged it the Daemonhost may just leave after 1 kill
...or its randomized, which I like less
was the bio optic targeting helping you out?
yes
totally the way on that mode
Its mostly to chill and keep dodgeing when meeting snipers.
i would have to spam T to find the snipers
Sliding works to.
then the brainburst would log on
gentlemen, I have reached ascension, warp flurry IV on trauma 
Which one of these blessings should I replace with Warp Flurry?
Sacrifice the weapon and bank Surge. Hope they fix it for Trauma in a later patch.
Neither are that great on trauma but yeah, banking surge for the future might be the move.
so if you want to use it, pave over warp nexus I suppose
The weapon is not worth using honestly even if you don't care about surge.
Dawg why are bursters the most inconsistent thing to push
Can I still sacrifice it after I re-bless? I'm not really looking for a god-roll right now just getting the feel of the weapon
How so? Are the base stats just bad?
yeah so long as you don't rebless over it you can obtain it.
man I wish the staffs shared blessings
the heck
doesnt void and trauma have all the same blessings?
with the exception of rending shockwave
trauma is kinda weird with warp flurry
It showed up in my melk today and I don't have enough to grab it. First time I've seen it and I'm at 1236.7 hours played
Finalized my Surge staff at last. It can't get any better. Above 369 does not exist in my RNG seed for me.
I kinda maybe see a use case for surge on hi5 shock
but like what if instead you did damage
u can do damage with melee
Runnin' and gunnin'
While suppressing potential melee kills while breaking distance
Surge ainโt too bad on gauntlet until the horde and gauntlet happen at same time
At same direction - then it's awkward ๐
LMB of Surge is massively underestimated really
If only lightning from charged Surge was not chaining to RANDOM number of targets....
ok sure if you are truly using deimos or illisi as primary
If Im using kinetic flayer it says all attacks have a chance of brainbursting my target. Will my lasgun attacks enable that too?
are people still using void because Im having a blast with one right now ๐
yes; non-force attacks will also trigger it
I find that the funniest thing to trigger Kinetic Flayer is your BB, that leads to Double BB ๐
void and trauma are the only ones I use, love void
i feel like a gremlin
just joined a malice game to get warp battery
left
then went to a hight int gauntlet heresy to get pick n mix then left
I have a purge staff that is good but not sure what melee to pair it with. The tipped sword? Or some sort of silly dueling sword
Neat
deimos and illisi are both quite good right now
personally ive found dueling swords to be very underwhelming, since force sword gets stuff like slaughterer, unstable, and deflector
Yeah, Deimos FS works very well with the pergatus
also siblings
what are good spots to do Cliffhanger on
im thinking the throneside area where you gotta power up the bridge
classic was the green mission
whats it called
with the interrogator finale
bridge connects to a last interrogator
i know the one
A bunch of good spots to do it. I got it without even focusing it on Chasm Station HL-16-11
yeah that finale is a banger
thats a good idea as well
i dont use my special enough lol
Ok so there are two levels that start at the same spot that have a little bridge one is hab dreyko and the other one is Chasm Logistratum I believe. Right at the beginning on the first bridge there is a tiny brig off to the side. It's on the right at the beginning of dreyko and the left on chasm.
Wait for a horde and
You should be good
On Chasm Station. the drop down(point of no return) to the final area just above the boss room. You can aggro enemies down there without jumping down and they will all climb up behind you. Simply use special while they are all climbing up and you will knock like 20 of them off
primary can do damage too if you hit...
This spot
the deimos fucks so hard
plague ogryn
doesnt like deimos to the head
they need to buff dueling swords
cuz deimos beats them in almost every single way
i think the only edge dueling swords have is a little bit more sprint speed/dodge distance
better block cost
unlimited dodges is nice, so is the free deflector currently 
after seeing pygex's video, im learning the 1 shot charging mutie tech
its alot of fun
This is the story of a Force Sword which was rejected even before arriving. However, this shiny blade proved us all wrong with the mighty speed of warp and a jab that hits like a truck.
ironic
because im the first comment in the video, complaining about the deimos' announcement
and now im singing it's praise
Is there a scenario where you press weapon special on deimos
tbf, the deimos and Illisi combined have just put the OG Force sword out of business. 
up until that point the regular FS was amazing. Now that these are out, IDK if I'll ever go back
simply outclassed in every way
1 shot mauler 1 shot body mutie 1 shot body flamers/dogs 2 shot stunlock crushers
the special is also better against ragers in many situations and the captain when the shield is down
what should i get rid of, for deflector? as well as perks
Yeah special stuns ragers
Deflector is built in on Deimos and illisi
But it's a bug
oo
slaughterer
always go more power 
Slaughterer+ unstable power are the best blessings for force swords on most builds
oh daymm
i'll be on the lookout for a slaughterer
what are the 2 best perks on force swords? maniacs and ___?
Flak
Infested is nice on illisi. I think it helps with 1 shot break points on poxwalkers
aka killing 20 poxwalkers per swing
lol nice
Yeah I run 25 maniac & infested on mine
just rolled an illisi that came with 25 maniac, i'll put infested as well
I haven't tested to see if a normal illisi can do it
But with mine (25 infested) I can 1 shot dogs
It's very useful
i kinda like the deminos (after tryign it in meat grinder), the heavy 2 is real strong
With unstable power + warp unleashed + 6 warp charges, the heavy special on an illisi with 25 maniac does around 70% of their hp
maybe in the future swap off unstable power for slaughter?
god damn i gotta try that
i c people running the auto pistol as well, seems real strong
If that's a horde clear sword, out slaughterer on it
I don't use mine as horde clear
I use mine as straggler clear
Opps
Wrong wep
I use exorcist to get toughness back
My purgatus is for horde clear
I pretty much play like a flamer zealot with this
Rip
yeah for now, ganna make imporvements once i get more plasteels xD
I keep 8k melkbucks in reserve
So I never run into the situation of not having enough
i havent been doing that and now i am reaping what i sow
psyker got changed so much since last month... are these good feats to run with flame staff?
is there i reason you run infested on these? ive just been running maniac and flak on my illisi
no reason flybee, im just taking peoples' advice, haven't play teseted yet
for flame staff i run 3 1 1 2 1 2
you can run essence harvest if you want though
woah warp unleashed got a big buff
you'd run infested on Illisi to hit the one-shot breakpoint on poxwalkers with the minimum cleave damage with max slaughterer stacks and whatnot
didnt realize till i hoved over
e.g., killing 21 poxwalkers in a single swing
oh, would you run that over flak?
3 1 1 1 1 2/3 not bad either
Purga staff shines with ascendant blaze. Ascendant blaze shines with warp battery
i just chose flak since i didnt know what else to run
if you reaaaally want too spec into hordeclear, though I personally wouldn't take it over flak
i c
ill run this, seems like my type of playstyle as well. THANKS!
np
Executor sucks the blessing works like decimator
1 missed hit = buff gone
If you are running Deimos. Kinetic deflection will probably be better than shield IMO
we have the mage's court and 1 homeless guy with a sledgehammer
homeless guy with a razor
Tbh i find kd just a bit too useful to pass up
or naturally bald
But I play very melee oriented so might be biased on it
i like kd...can save you when a shooter squad ambushes your flaming self =)
purg staff
it's def the most useful talent in the column IMO
and not close enough to roast them
Itโs rare but it definitely saved me in a clutch a few times before
โIโm here cause they said there would be foodโ
Yup!
we gave the homeless guy like a $1 meal prior to the mission
Even without deflector blessing. it means you can block with 0 stam. Just super good
and he was all up for it when he heard we were being threatened
Yup, I love it because u can become tank against bosses
Or just needing to block dodge through a horde unscathed
Why that one psyker wearing a chair on their head 
Because his mind needed to rest
representative of the throne
uwu
uwu
okay so at 6 warp charges, about 25% ish peril with WU and +25% infested you can one-shot damnation dogs to the body with a special charged heavy from the illisi assuming it has good damage stats
โGuys who took the toilet seat againโ
hopefully they die before they get into melee but its' nice to be able to do
No
WHAT IF PSYKER GOT A STAFF THAT CAN HEAL TOUGHNESS
Itโs a sad meme
it already has this
If u want duelling sword playstyle but actually kill things
Iโd advise using the Deimos instead
it is called Quietitude :^)
veteran has a feat that does that i think
never used it
"Mercy heals pls" - Vet
Id unironically like that
Use Deimos
and have access to slaughterer
Unlimited dodging
Insta killing elites with heavy shanks
Very high light attack damage
Etc etc
All whilst maintaining same dodge mobility and access to specials that can kill armoured bois without having to bb
V2 is leaking
don't worry it's #JustIncomparableThings
it's just a v2 joke
vets that dump all their ammo into the horde you're destroying... =D
the warp
LOL get it its vt2
has me
red dust build op
Are there decent alternatives to FS? New to Psyker and really not liking FS while also trying to figure out what weapons to run, looking to run Heresy+
Don't like any of the 3 FS options?
Well, knife and axes are still very decent
duelling swords look great but are outclassed by the Deimos fs
Knife, dueling sword, antax mkV are the usual non FS options
Ya
people use combat axe with brutal momentum
If u want safe to try higher difficulties, I recommend antaxe
psyker can infinitely block push attack due to stamina regen
so far dont like the deimos fs havent unlocked the others yet
was gonna look at antax and see how it feels
they bumped up the level requirement for obscurus huh
try the Illisi, if single target isn't to your liking. The illisi is the opposite
I'll give illisi a try once i've got it unlocked, do you guys have any reccomendations for staves/guns?
agripinaa infantry and shredder autopistol (w/ Pinning Fire and Blaze Away) are my picks for guns
If u want entry staff
Purg is safe
Void is a middle ground, trauma is excellent for hi intense
Just use what you feel like using, all the staves are good thru the highest content.
Surge is like a true support staff
Also this
ty guys for the reccomendations, helping save me moeny early on and saving me some time on stuff to look outfor/try
Have fun!
what is 'illisi'?
One of the two new Force Sword variants.
ah copy
Sacrifices single target for cleave...
But, oh wait, I mean "sacrifices"
Because charged attacks still do like 1k+ damage on headshots, and can oneshot basically everything with the correct perks
can voidstrike staff even crit (warp nexus)
Because.. Yes. 
ive noticed that abt the current powersword im using (im a lvl 8 psyk)
Illisi also has fuck-broken clear capability though
Easily can chop through 10 Poxwalkers, and with any roll of vs. Infested, that shit goes straight up to 20.
completed a heresy and got this
i didnt even know that charge rate could drop this low over 300 base
Emperor is mysterious
Illisi is a child of power sword and heavy sword with infinite dodges
doesn't have the 7.5 cleave on normal heavies like both though; very sad
you need specific stuff to 1 shot 20 poxwalkers
weakspot, WU, max slaughterer stacks, +infested
may or may not need unstable power for it as well
works on my force sword at least with +infested assuming that I hit weakspots
Specific stuff yes, but the fact it has potential to do that is juicy
Is there any same way to build revolver on psyker? Takes 3 headshots for trapper lmao
unfortunately no. revolver performs very poorly past t3
if it had infinite pen, it'd be good
revolver should be emperor-infused warp-bullets for everyone>
small bonus for psykers
does exorcist work on illisi
as in practice
i've got this hadron special i am trying to salvage
and i'd like to boost slaughterer
ok
Do u want free toughness? Thats how u get free toughness
Exorcist Bloodthirsty would be interesting if Slaugherer wasn't so strong
Trash
@summer prairie
This is the story of a Force Sword which was rejected even before arriving. However, this shiny blade proved us all wrong with the mighty speed of warp and a jab that hits like a truck.
Those straight 80s
swap that mob with warp res
I honestly dont know but it is a t4
I fuckn hate playing with another psyker in team
am i the only one like thaty
when i play psyker i get grouped up with 2 other
when i play zealot i get grouped up with 2 zealots
wtf
soooo what should i do
i mean i need flurry 4 no matter what for other staves as well
that's not how it works
you give hadron that staff and you get flurry for surge only

if you spend your milk money on something like that, something good will show up tomorrow that you can't afford
I kind of feel bad that I got the Not Even Close penance at level 2. I'm a vet main and I recall seeing other pyskers struggle with it.
which one is that?
brain burst the dog as it pounces
if you are going to spend your milkies on something nonessential saturday is the day to do it
ah, that one is fine tbh
since if something you really care about shows up tomorrow you'll have the option to reroll and do all your contracts worst case
just guarantee a one-shot on the dog and boom
Easier to do at the sedition level missions.
oh that's great, I need to know the build lol
Unstable 4 with +maniac 20% so if you have +maniac 25% even unstable 3 would be fine.
For feats I have 311112 as that's what I run with my spirit nexus trauma, the main thing is to have Warp Unleashed. The more warp charges you have the less peril you need. As long as you have good enough damage, finesse and first target rolls it's happy head hunting.
The other blessing I have is deflector, I know the Deimos has it built in but I am anticipating it's a bug.
alright, nice
speaking of built-in, doesn't the new power sword also kind of have power cycler built in? at least, on heavy attacks
the deflector thing got the acknowledged tag
FYI acknowledged just means they've logged it, it doesn't mean they've said "yep that's a bug"
I've had stuff go from acknowledged to not-a-bug, presumably after they looked at it
their behavior is definitely inconsistent
i mean cmon do people actually think its not a bug
they've also come out and made comments in addition to categorizing things in the past which they so far (to my knowledge, I don't pay the closest attention) haven't done here
you never know, it might be them looking at how people make force swords and seeing if it becomes default behavior
companies are known for doing unlisted changes to see how people react
now that I do think is silly
ok but then you think about it for 2s and you realise obscurus doesnt have it
deflector is still a blessing thats locked
nothing that data driven is behind their design process
yes, and they'll probably monitor what builds people use with obscurus, how often it gets used over the other two (after the initial enthusiasm anyhow), and if it perhaps needs changing
the amount of copium people have to be inhaling has to be off the charts if they convince themselves its not a bug
never pass down an opportunity for more data
no shit dude u give people a free blessing of course theyre gonna want it
how about they just make slaughterer intrinsic on all weapons
it's not making the weapon more powerful, it's a behavior
the current blessing landscape could not coexist with a methodology like this
eh, yeah
wdym what builds people use with obscurus
builds dont change with deflector
you just get a free 3rd blessing
why
how often any force sword gets used now vs. pre-patch, and how often the obscurus gets used vs. the two new ones
why it only come to me when i have no money at all (although it is not really a good one
it may make them think about turning this bug into a feature, so to speak
hardly attributable to deflector
What blessings am i looking for on the Void force staff?
the bizarro world fatshark that was doing regression analysis to normalize class/weapon/feat combination boss parses like this was a moba or mmo is funny to think about
so which one is it
well, one can hope lol
psyker players are usually too busy brain bursting shooters one by one across the map to worry about things like getting shot and using deflector
but that's my 2 cents, for however much anyone cares about it
Ah, alright, thanks
Flurry 4 is not good enough?
my guy just because the new swords have deflector doesnt mean that any uptick in usage is because of deflector buddy pal use your brain the other two swords have massive benefits over obscurus even without deflector on any of them
I got it on accident too
But now i want to do "kill boss with only BB"
I think flurry 4 is very good, it's surge that I personally view as medium
Deimos has deflector intrinsic
who the fuck designed that one
so how are you going to definitively say yeah people really like this deflector on the ALREADY BUSTED SWORDS
Just for variety
but if you're surge gaming I think it's 100% worth
yes, and part of buffing / changing obscurus may be just giving it deflector like the other two and turning said bug into feature
Which perks and blessings i want on surge?
for surge staff only
always a possibility, regardless of origins of why the two new force swords have delfector baked in
also i run deflector with 60~ block efficiency and a stamina curio
yeah always a possibility that theyre gonna give me and only me 100% stat weapons sure
never say never!
always a chance!
stop me
the only thing that makes me think the deflector staying could happen is the combat axe maniac thing
ok then what about people with deflector already locked then
are they just fucked
theyd have to redesign it
the reason i run deflector on a sword that is bugged to have it without deflector is because i don't want to play dishonestly around a bug and then have the bug fixed and then i get upset
to be clear I don't think it's likely
its way less simple than just reverting maniac damage
agreed
i think deflector should just allow you to block shots even from behind
while keeping blocking front shots as basic function
but the fact that they reverted at all means they're wary of stepping on toes that way, maybe they just let it rock
funny warp bubble
(probably not)
its a different scenario imo
it's not a perfect analogy
I could easily see them reworking deflector into something related if they decide to go that route
they gave us ultra toughness regen and they still toned it back
and then what happens with blessing locks
people are just fucked every time they decide to drastically change blessings
they've done it before
in the world where they left it I think deflector just gets changed into a block efficiency blessing with some shooting related throw in
maybe movement speed when you block shot, something small
yea something small thats not worth it
but already locked
what if they changed slaughterer to u taking 500% more damage also
I dunno, have it actually reflect lasbolts/bullets at whatever damage is deemed appropriate
people who locked in deflector on a sword that deflects without it still have the functionality they had before
you left deflector on for a reason, it now has the same functionality but adds another layer to the now-default behavior
they could also just unlock all deflector blessed swords in this hypothetical patch
sure thatd be the best solution
seems cleanest
let people make the decision for themselves
dont ever lock deflector lol
they could also just do nothing
but it aint happening
as a warning to every single blessing that you have locked
that they could change it at anytime and ur stuck with it
changing slaughterer to make you take 500% damage also
well its locked now get fucked
"complain on the forums one more time you fucks"
"you'll see, you'll all see"
unlocking locked blessings whenever a patch changes them is a good practice in general that I'd like to see implemented tbh
Which is why you bank those weapons that have good stats but "useless" T4 blessings assuming you already have unlocked those. You never know if they might have their day.
but probably won't
how about just remove locks
of course that would be preferable
thatll save them all the trouble every time they change shit (all the time)
ain't that the truth
thats how i imagine things playing out
But if they remove the locks they can't bloat the play time of the game, which in return lowers their value in the eyes of the stock holders
eventually they'll nerf slaughterer or something and everyone will be mad and to placate the masses they'll go "ok we're removing locks but changing it to cost more!" or something like that
and then everyone will be upset about the increased costs but they'll get ghosted by fatshark
and then with their stockholm syndrome the players will look at this shit and go "well, it could be worse"
thats how you live service
dead service
no new content
no endgame
for what 5 months now
good thing diablo 4 is coming out soon
gonna be outta this shithole then
I do not hold high hopes for D4. It's Activion. Nuff said.
hey, dont get me wrong ok, you like diablo, you like the franchise, you can play your shitgame in peace, ok? But it won't be better. It never gets better, it only gets worse.
all games are shitgames now
its just about what you like versus what you have to put up with
Indie games are our hope now...
sure if thats what you think
but i dont believe your judgement
all game bad no!!!!! nothing will ever be good! no!!!!
yea ok buddy sure u do u
just try to avoid investing so much time and money into it that you mistake the time and money investment as something too valuable to abandon
or else you will either feel awful or delude yourself
possibly both
i've been on the internet for over 25 years of course i have experience
"this shitgame is bad i'm going to play new good game!" "i just realized i'm playing a shitgame and it's bad, I'm going to play this new good game!"
Can someone give me some general tips/generic build please I'm struggling to get the hang of the class
it aint that deep if u arent having fun just do something else maybe come back later if you like what you see
you dont have to eat at the same restaurant every single day
its a never ending loop of deceitful marketing work and minimum viability just to host the cash shop
you can be in denial all you want, and truthfully it's better if you remain ignorant because then you'll have more fun
who is in denial of what
i've never understood why people play games they don;t enjoy#
Here we have a guy trying to communicate on why you should not invest your personality into gaming and a guy who gets kind of defensive about that
And im here sitting on my throne
most likely what will happen on D4 launch is it will get loaded with all of the poe haters who never stop complaining and agitating and harassing each other because marketing is saying it's a "poe killer" and getting "x killer" as a label has been proven to be a death sentence. they never pull the audience long term of the game thats supposed to be killed because who wants to play a new game that's basically the "same thing" as what they're playing already, the audience they do pull from that game however are all of the toxic high conflict personalities that are unhappy with the game they are playing and think the grass is greaner at the "x killer" who will linger for a few months, review bombing the game, complaining nonstop, harassing people who actually like the game, griefing and getting themselves banned, before returning to whatever hell they crawled out of
ok
psyker chat lore friendly edition
and that's assuming blizzard has effective protection against the bot army that will appear to appease an artifically created demand in order to sell solutions in the cash shop
lost ark didn't and now 80% of the population is bots supplying rmt to the 20% of juicers left
new player retention is in the toilet, its just a whaling ship now.
Forgive Amazon games they are small indie company who clearly didnโt run an mmo before lost ark

the spicy thing is they kept accidentally banning people for various things, a lot of people quit out of fear.
but for reals, every Korea to global release has been a botting shit show because kr games usually donโt need to worry about multi account since all online accounts need citizenship id
And not a single na publisher ever addressed it
i think bliz requires phone number now for a lot of stuff
its only really fucking wacky with steam f2p releases because steam has an extremely low barrier for bot entry
and f2p have no barrier to entry
d4 shouldn't be too bad since its a 70$ game, unless there is loads of money to be made
imagine, 70$ game trying to kill a free to play game
The entry price tag curbs the botting mostly
but I dunno, im skeptical of new mmo releases
thatโs like every mmo Iโve played since guild wars
i'll wait until they sell it for 20$ unless its extremely extremely good
Iโm waiting for the โpaid convenienceโ or โmonthly benefitsโ to rear its ugly head
Then u get trifecta
Paid entry, cash shop, subscription
the modern economic strategy is to wait a month or two before turning screws
you want to get people attached to their time investment first before you roll out the circus
Thatโs it
Iโll give blizz around 3 months- 6 months before the clowning begins
After all the โcompetitiveโ guilds are set up
yeah i usually wait 6
unless its something i'm weak to
i simp for warhammer, unfortunately
Don't call them blizz. It's Activision trough and through, they carved blizz face off Blizzard's corpse and glued it to it's own ass.
but i do have over 1000 hours and am not unhappy with darktide so
i guess this is the shitgame for me
Yup, this and monster hunter for me
waiting for world 2
didnt like rise
but whatever i get it they have to make a title for garbo switch
Rise wasnโt awful, just the end game loop was mediocre imo
but yeah, worlds 2 I know groups of people waiting for news of it. Hibernating, slumbering.

rise is fun if you mod out all the rng nonsense lmao
for me it adds options and variety, used to be problematic with some weapons but currently it feels well balanced
the wirebug was more fun than the clutch claw
but i do want more world
the lobby in world is the best
Any cons to binding crouch and dodge together?
i'm pretty excited for the future of DT tbh
can you even slide when doing that
Yes.
Valid point!
Question: Trauma Force Staff. Pair with Deimos or with Illisi?
This is the story of a Force Sword which was rejected even before arriving. However, this shiny blade proved us all wrong with the mighty speed of warp and a jab that hits like a truck.
I mean I do absolutely love my Deimos
would like to find something to use an Illisi with though
revolver
Just use it

Illisi claps
illisi+shredder
Illisi seems like a good one for gunker
Its definitely great for that combo
Shredder will already brutalize mutants
Before they touch you
illisi is mostly there so you don't get the urge to shoot at hordes
Deimos needs a rework
It should be all stabs
All of the lights and heavies
Just high damage stabs

I've picked up Trauma about 6 games ago and so far it feels better than voidstrike at damnation idk why
like with 6 charges you get unlimited mindless m2 spam
It's enough horde clear by itself?
Guns
Because void stops at the first elite that it hits. Trauma doesn't care.
that's fair, though we had a run where we had double zealots and no one had long range guns/staves, ranged scabs on throneside just fucks us
but with vets around I feel like it's strictly better than void
void can cleave most non-ogryn elites fine
Also illisi is good with surge
its good with pretty much anything tbh
On hi/shock barrage/aura BB is so good that you can pretty much bring any ranged you like and be useful
is there a melee weapon tier list?
Yes. It's:
- Shared place for Illisi and Deimos
- Everything not in the next category
- Devil's claw
illisi and deimos? force swords?
Id say the dueling swords and the combat knife come second based of pure mobility
are those first two forceswords?
Deimos is just duelling sword but better
so deimos purgatos combo good?
Very
Practice accessing the heavy shank
And youโll one tap elites with headshots
Maulers 2 headshots
itโs also an extremely good sword for holding boss aggro and kiting daemonhost
in fact you can easily 1v1 assassination targets with it if ur team can hold the horde off you to an extent
Yea Deimos demolishes the shields too from the captain boss
It's just harder to maintain high peril for warp unleashed
Yeah, more high effort. Have to q swap rather than spam like illisi can for stacking
Surge I reckon
Other staves all clear hordes decently to excellently, where as surge is all about stunning a handful of toughies
Here's a question though, I've never been tempted to take a Dueling sword, less so with the new force sword updates, but this one seems nice?
bad blessings and perks, easy skip
riposte is fine but you'd want the t4 if you get it from melk
thought it would be a damage class, we just CC machines huh
which perks does purg want?
Literally anything. Illisi is a strong all rounder and honestly strongest melee weapon psyker has access to at the moment
Make sure that you unlock the true spirit of the illisi with blazing soul crit firesword build
Surge and guns
I canโt find the answer anywhere, does kinetic Deflection and the deflection blessing stack?
yes
idk, stacking crit-chance on duelling swords is actually pretty good, 'cos the difference between non-crit and crit, specifically on duelling swords, is absurd
like, +500% more damage absurd
crit is okay but it's only a t3 too
true, best saving melks for a t4
that might have been worth getting a few months ago but high base rating items are very common now
they're common if you've been farming mats/gold for the last 5 months
even the ordo shop has 370+ all the time
The issue is when you hit weakspots your crits suck more
Because Fatshark
Crit isn't even that good on crit weapons, it's just the best option they got.
Idk where you get +500%
It does about 3x damage on light crits
check out armored though
flak armour bodyshot 21, critical 125
okay, heavy on maniac, 163 bodyshot, 272 critical, not as big an increase, but still that's a higher increase than any other damage boosting blessing/perk
it's pretty nice when you run shred riposte and get 50% crit going
Yes but only because Fatshark doesn't give blessings equally
If you could have Headtaker and Slaughter for 75% power each I'd never even look at crit
And Shred + Riposte is just stupid how much effort it takes compared to that
give dueling swords something goofy like +30% attack speed blessing
I approve
It'd be way better than Precog
And also what is up with dodge based blessings
And them being shit value
precog is stonks
invest in it now
it get boofewd

riposte is honestly fine
20% crit is ok
precock
they just need to make the duration like 1s longer
i mean yes what i would do is
i guess I just value different things on DS, 'cos I'm not going to use a DS to attack a wall of zombies, or take on a big group of elites, its mainly for moving out of trouble and quickly spiking the occasional thing on its own
There you go
make it like bloodthirsty
so i wouldn't be stacking slaughterer on it
on successful dodge u get a one use buff
which is way cooler
but u no how it be

what the game really needs is two diff successful melee dodge types

normal dodges, and either perfectly timed dodges / dodges for big attacks
so u cant just spam dodge chaff and get infinite value
The only reason people don't use DS as a weapon is because it kinda sucks as a weapon. If it didn't suck people would use it as a weapon.
trouble with reposte, is it sounds like you can have it up constantly by spamming dodge
but if you actually watch your blessings icons ingame
its really not up that much
ye
Because you mostly stagger enemies if you're fighting back
thats why when they said they were going to reduce duration
i was like

but whyy
precog isnt bad beacuse its dodge related, its bad because they set the numbers the same way they set all the weakspot stuff
at random while afk
I like how they reduced the duration when they made it refresh but now they made a bunch of other ones refresh and let them be
also the fact the bonus is a special non-double dipping crit weakspot finesse bonus so u get less value on weakspot crits than u would expect
they made the entire class of buffs refresh
bm, ghost, etc
BrutalMomentumLAUGHING.mp4
Riposte should stack and last until you block or swap weapon
Up to 100% crit

Hire me
or, even better
the amount of crit it gives
scales with the damage of the hit u dodged
bam, instant swag
Let me store crits
anything
thats how i would redesign blazing spirit
light attacks store soulblaze charges
heavies spend them to set ppl on fire

You get 0.5 stacks
imagine giving the player control over their blessings
The amount of tech the psyker has compared to other classes always manages to impress me.
So I put IV Exorcist on my Illisi, and I don't see any icon when I kill poxwalkers with headslashes. It still works, right?
The amount of things that are bugged amazes me even more
Check your Peril counter. Get Peril up and start chaining headshots. You should see the Peril goes down faster than just pure passive quell.
Ye
I believe it does work still
Just
So many other short"" blessings have an icon popped, I am surprised they didn't make any icon for this
Yes but starting from the second swing. You can miss the first swing of the chain and it doesn't matter. After that, it's a reset whenever you stop attacking or miss a head.
I was surprised they made the buff icons for the majority of blessings. We are not the same.
this class feels so fucking weak??
Depends on what you compare it to.
Your probably using the wrong gear, weapons.
dueling sword surge
there's your problem
surge is very mid
dueling sword is completely outmoded by deimos force sword
surge is the worst staff imo
if oyu are low level still, that's a problem too. psyker doesnt take off until level 25-30
all of the staves feel kinda bad at low level
because low damage, slow cast time and high peril cost
Honestly i think psyker is actually pretty good low level.
you can do some fun shit that works only at malice like use a revolver or something
wait am i not supposed to be using revolver at damnation
yeah, back to ogryn lmao
Revolver works until you run out ammo.
Damn, BB build is pretty fun
Simple, steal the veterans ammo
Also use a revolver dump stat reload speed so ur ammo lasts longer
by bb build i mean using Wrack and Ruin, Psykinetic Aura and Kinetic Barrage
Just use ult whenever you see elites
Kill them
and your ult ready again
hmmm
Should i replace revive speed?
I have an ok Deimos but not sure what perks I should be looking for on it. Given that's it's a special clearer, is it maniacs + elites or what?
But if you stack revive speed you can bring up the people being downed on malice :)
keep maniac
swap weakspot for carapace
deimos does full damage to all armor types, except carapace, where it only does 80% dmg
that's not how it works
even if you do full damage, you'll still do more with the perk
yee ik
get flak
im suggesting carapace to shore up the 1 "weakness" of deimos
yee flak would be my 2nd suggestion
i have flak and maniac on mine
you are better off BBing most carapace targets anyway
wouldn't it be nice that instead of removing ranged weapon block from deimos they just made it inherinat for all force swords
yee true
it'd be nice but also a bit too nice
lmao
thanks hadron
luckily i dont want this sword
just to farm for t4s
but jfc

it's not like pre-patch where you could argue that the obscurus had milquetoast offensive power
since the illisi and Deimos now exist, and the base damage of force swords got bumped, and the other blessings besides slaughterer that compete with deflector are also meh
the swords don't particularly need more power though besides slaughterer
Does toughness regen speed affect quitetude?
nope, toughness Regen speed only affects the toughness regeneration from being in coherency
it does not affect toughness Regen from any feats
What other perks are good?
sniper resist, gunner resist
just don't get hit (tm)
I like stam Regen since I'm constantly in melee and running around
well we have the illisi, and it's not like our effectiveness in melee is terrible
infinite dodges make it very safe to aggressively push into ranged enemies with dodge slides, and you have this passive protection as long as you:re spamming dodges
I find it very safe to be in melee until I dodge into a wall or accidentally corner myself
Sniper resist yes, gunner resist no
i'd take sniper resist over gunner resist every time yee
but if i roll gunner resist on 1 curio, i wont complain
I can put Slaughterer II or Executor 3 on my Illisi
Which one's better?
(Still Slaughterer, right?)
Yeah, even at low levels.
I'm farming my swords in the hope of finally getting Slaughterer 3 or 4...
But I'm pretty okay with this one
Thanks, will do!
Melk is offering bloodthirsty IV. Should I get it?
if you use the illisi and/or like the novelty of it, then sure
or if you're willing to live on the hopium that they'll buff it

it's a fucken t4 only
it should be buffed
for all weapons that can roll it
let me have 100% crit chance chainsword cowards
or at least like
give it 50% for x seconds after the initial 100%
consecrated this to max and it looks based already
is this good? does trauma have a dumpstat
thought as much
Quell or warp resist
but that thing isn't horrible
Good enough?
damage being my dumpster if you have at least 60%
get rid of focused channeling for warp nexus
I love dumpsters
and yeah it'll be good enough
smh to the dumpster it goes
:c
i was referring to the trauma; i'd personally pick warp res as my dump stat on the purg so even harder into the dumpster it goes
smh shake my head
smhing my head
Bloodthirsty Blazing Spirit, why didn't I think of that?
And here I was thinking "Yeah, Bloodthirsty Slaughterer Illisi would just be a meme machine of deleting enemies"
Rare case of store having somewhat decent Illisi
So deflector to Slaughter and it's a killing machine. And Stmaina for whatever
deflec will be good once they patch it
I already have good one with Deflector ๐ This will be slightly different
We need mod that changes Charging sound for FS into rubbing something made of rubber, like twisting a clown-baloon and making a giraffe out of it ๐
Seems fun, but is it actually any good? Won't the crits just outright kill trash before they're set on fire?
it just kills shit before setting ito n fire, yea
i have the same sword
Had a feeling
if you wanted to enjoy the feeling of setting stuff on fire
you're better off with shred
instead of bloodthirsty
So, ideally, keep slaughterer and add bloodthirsty for even more lols.
and just lmb spamming
Yeah
What blessings do you guys like on the Deimos?
the same on all force swords
Unstable power and slaughterer
unstable power and deimos
oops
i mean slaughterer
unstable power and slaughterer*
Does Unstable Power actually give you any breakpoints?
MOAR POWAH
its 20% more damage
