female savant is for simps
ok rentacop

Longer interactions between two personalities are great
every female savant be looking like this too
true

It’s called personal opinion and preference
cannot focus while the average Bavarian man screams into my ear
give me scottish zealot voice with loner lines and thats 10/10
zero chance of that happening, but a man can dream
My fav is the male one that screams like a girl when a hound shows up
i get annoyed by the "look at me im so quirky" male psyker
uh, so unrelated but does the las pistol do more damage to flak versus unarmored
i believe not
i find his screams annoying
when he takes damage
my favorite is the loner solely because you can brainburst a poxburster from 50 meters away and he'll still say "I THINK I GOT SOME IN MY MOUTH"
like from an exploding barrel and goes flying
i think the order is something like maniac > unyielding > unarmored
just has a grating scream
I don't like the noises loner makes when heavy attaking
other wise male loner is the best
and I will not be challenged
think im going to run a las pistol for shits for a couple missions and see how I feel about it
i think theyre incredible
i am guilty of making mine have neon eyes after i reached 30 to symbolize her ability with the warp or some shit
i enjoy every part of the loner psyker because of how fucking annoying he is most of the time
but honestly female savant is adorable
male loner is my favorite. I love how eccentric and overdramatic he acts
SIMP DETECTED
I TOLD YALL
SAVANT IS THE SIMP PICK
everyones screaming and shouting about the reaper and shes like "our craftsmen are the best, has anyone heard about the superb moebian iron that is heated at 500 degrees imperiumheit?"
how is that a simp pick
Savant is great
LONER IS THE SIMP PICK
ping a grenade and listen to loner shatter glass
NORMIE LONER POINT AND LAUGH
savant is the normie pick
lmfao
savant just seems like the perfect fit for me
its ubiquitous
Female vet voice sounds annoying, zealot female voice sounds like a hot tomboy, female psyker sounds like a sexy European woman
loner is the normie pick
Ogryn voice is just sexy
YOU ARE NOT SPECIAL BUDDY
if oyu're playing with a female psyker theres an 80% chacne shes gonna be a savant
YOUR ARE A NORMIE
shes intelligent, but more in a curious way rather than an obnoxious one
I think my favorite personality is savant followed by judge zealot

and there's a 90% chance shes ognna look like this
as if she likes thinking more than she likes telling people that she thinks
The personality I hate the most is fucking Cadian vet
thats all female characters yo
oh yeah, you wanna see something?
which lady psyker is the french-sounding one? because that's the one everyone has
savant
aka the normie and simp pick
you are 100% correct
there is not one female zealot without white hair and that tattoo
r u okay? the zealot had a th and I asked if he wanted to kill the daemons and he said yes XD. if you're not playing to have fun idk why you're playing 💀
my zealot has the same face as my psyker
because i like it
the face suits both the judge, and loner
the long hair situation in darktide is truly dire
what are some good las pistol blessings
this is my vet btw
ur mom
make the other faces not ugly
the face i use looks decent
not one day passes in which i dont lament not having the taylor swift ponytail
idc if she looks older
1/10
it fits the voices
it actually does
i used that on the vet before changing
i felt it looked a bit asian and nothing the vet has sounded particularly so
i mean, her name is lee
my zealot is, as one would expect
Look at my majestic characters face
white-haired
Judge is Japanese?
That’s an Asian accent?
i do think this face looks a bit off compared to the rest tho
but you can hear it if you listen
its like they forgot something on the shaders and its skin looks smooth
the va is japanese
Maybe cuz I’m using male judge

not actually eastern european
my zealot says "wouldst thou art an imbecile" and i would think shes correct, but then she calls everyone an imbecile and i get confused if its not just her way of saying "dude"
"ugh, fine, i guess you are my little imbecilechamp"
imbecile (affectionate)
lmao
cursed zealot plushie, sucks your faith and calls you an imbecile
the agitator?
female agitator is same voice as gwynevere, priscilla and female undead merchant in dark souls, and hyetta in Elden ring
amn
damn
had no idea
im usually good at picking up voices
have you seen game of thrones?
i concur - every zealot personality is irritating
We need 4th zealot personality - Mute one
no, I only read one comic that was a prequel among the stuff from that setting
I see where is it going

solaire's VA is Bronn's actor's brother
The judge has 8th grader syndrome, wants to look like a cool zealot/fanatic. But the real fanatic is a mean bastard.
solaire's VA was a character in the Bill right?
Judge is a heroic type
never heard/seen that
it was an old police drama
I'm surprised that the savant seems to get along best with the professional, you think so? Well excluding ogyn who get along with everyone.
yea imdb says he was in the bill
im not
they both love the militarum do they not
and the professional is... professional, which savant is keen on
They both believe in being professionals and showing off skills, they have a friendly rivalry it seems.
I chose seer for my psyker
which gender
(male seers tend to be the worst psyker players i have encountered)
male savants tend to be the best i've encountered
Male Loner va also voices bully Ogryn
best looking female I've seen in a while in the game
So if I have to pick between keeping block efficiency and combat ability regeneration, which is the lesser suck?
What of female seers?
Curious if we have a stereotype 
Block efficiency! Even full 12% ability regen from all 3 curios could be spent on so many other things. Our cd is great imo. I used to run cd reduction but with how our block and reviving works, and deflector, and the lvl 20 talent.. i actually put block on all 3 curios always. I dont need to eat shots to increase peril or anything. If im trying to do some shit i dont want my peril flying up while holding block. Coming from verm 2, block cost reduction was one of the most important stats for every single character. Everyone can top dps and this and that but not failing a mission is from being fucked less when youre fucked. Someone explained the sniper dmg on curio that way to me. One blast can complete shit all over you, but a single curio slot with sniper makes a huge difference
🤔
Ive never actually seen anyone comment on curio on here besides like 1 with stam regen, and 1 with sniper
But i am no royal w/cheese
Anyones else have a take?
they're rare. tend to be good, i think
i'd toss the thing out
i dont reccomend wounds
For this reason: Imo wounds are playing with the intent of failure, in a way. It's better to prevent going down in the first place, either with HP, toughness or even stamina for pushing. With more HP or toughness you are less likely to go down. With 1 extra wound, you need to go down twice in order for it to actually benefit you. Whereas toughness or HP will always be helpful. Typically in those games where you go down twice, the round is doomed anyway. Even on damnation I feel med stations are plentiful enough where + wounds are unnecessary
also
a lot of times if things are bad that you'd get use out of a wound
normally you can't get ressed or things are fucked
Unless you just have major skill issue
I always have one wound because I always assume my team SUCKS
And I go down to stupid things cuz I expect my team to not be useless
but if your team sucks they aint gonna rez you
so the less amount of time you spend needing to get rezzed, the better
Like randomly having 3 maulers overhead me because 10/10 teammates didn’t ping em even tho they spawned behind me but I front of them
You assume your team sucks, yet you need the extra down?
Curious 
Or the 10/10 revive into crusher overhead
hp or toughness is better with a shit team than wounds
Happens more often than you think
The hallmark of bad teams is not killing enough specials/elites
What the fuck is a kill priority? You see how well I'm fucking up this horde of melee trash? 
or one guy running out ahead and constantly going down and saying 'omg' over and over in the chat like it never should have happened
The hall mark of bad teams is dying to poxwalkers
i had a zealot like that this morning
hi5
then when you're close they just keep spamming 'come get me now!!!!!'
it was an ogryin, back to back 5s, same shit
Zealot career 2: the slur slinger
Testosterone
he ran ahead like a badass with a heavy sword
was the one in my runs
but did less damage than me lol
I need to mod up DT a bit to get the scoreboard
first run with him two of us died, so him and a zealot left. They get to where we are but it was a big area. Instead of slowly clearing with the zealot he goes right to us, with lots of specials, tries to revive without killing anything, and goes down
so we lost that run
the second one we made it, but he still went down a bunch
Everyone goes down, I don't mind or care, shit happens, director tries to fuck you, but when it's excessive just... come on
bruh
I will say, the general point isn’t wrong, but you do only need to be downed once to benefit from extra wounds. Or not at all, if you end up with a lot of corruption (ie from grimoire)
Do you guys still think Psyker is the highest skill floor class?
Did rush once on zealot by accident, didn’t even realize I was doing it until my teammate asked me to stop.
Spent the rest of the game within coherency
66% of 150 > 50% of 180
How do you take 3k damage in a single mission on a class with 100 HP?
That doesn’t count damage taken while downed right?
he was a zealot with a heavy sword, and look at his dmg. its less than mine, with a thammer
it should be way higher

cuz thammer can only dmg 3 enemies in a horde
Does the damage taken count for damage taken while in a downed state
literally the second easiest weapon to top d with
no it doesnt
Did he have holy revenant or something
it doesnt count downed damage
if he did, i didnt notice
Alright
Fuck why can’t I have that teammate
I gotta farm revives and rescues for the achievements man
i got the penance a week or so ago, finally
Reminder that if you want to test to see how well you can carry, head one difficulty down in Heresy
Quality of teammates 🔻
about to cop these penances
3k damage and only 10 downs? How many med packs was he eating
Bear in mind medpacks got buffed last patch
Literally 5x more effective
I wonder if the damage taken counts damage taken while in the invulnerability state
It shouldn't
Medpacks work on a resource based system right
They have a max amount of hp they heal
Does “damage taken” count toughness damage?
So he took ~2800 hp damage
yep lmao
Ok so ideally “damage taken” actually means “hp lost”
yep
If we assume he got downed 10 times, that’s 1000 hp taken off that NOT INCLUDING corruption
I take all the damage and I still hard carry
So he took 1800 hp damage without downs bare minimum
Like my 10/10 shield ogryn
He also used medicae 5 times
i got downed once that game
So we can assume that’s 500 more hp on Medicae
i took 1.3k cuz holy rev
Wonder if he had a health curio
Zealots have I think 200 hp?
Oh they have 200 hp?
yea
That means 2000 damage from downs best case scenario
Okay that’s more reasonable
2000 damage healed from downs
Wouldn’t be surprised if that was some sort of alternate universe flesh wound penance
Take 2.5k damage
Now who’s giving them ideas
if they add more penances, i hope they're retroactive
yeah, i guess not a lot of people running 5s in my region this AM
cuz i'd probably earn all those damnation penances instantly on log in
I gotta say finally getting an illi and running with it is amazing. I feel like I can actually hold my own against a horde or some specials now
illisi fucks
feels like a whole new psyker
I like the illi over the deimos
i play psyker now like zealot
Stop talking before the nerf bat comes back to us
just because it doesn't animation lock on a warp attack
It already fucked our soulblaze damage
feels great
i don't remember the names but I swapped out the perk to quell and walk at normal speed for the reduced range damage based on peril and that felt good in the last run
even if psyker gets nerfed, i aint gonna feel it
using my superior willpower, i will stay in this current patch
when everyone else will be stuck i nthe new nerf patch
since now I realize I need to keep my peril high for the bonus dmg. I feel like between yesterday morning and last night I finally figured out how to really play this class
high peril is the way
and illisi is the fastest way to reach it
the lower the warp resist, the better
yeah, I shared mine last night, I got an illi with 78-80 everything but 43 warp resist
Fucking peril junky
my deimos
Actually what psyker could use is a buff to mind in motion
what if MIM made you faster, instead of just making oyu go normal speed
or something
I have my own proposal
I struggle with the deimos a bit. little junk enemies always get in the way of me actually landing the charged attack on the proper target
Hell yeah dude
The weakspot is bad obvi but that thing is busted everywhere else so it doesn't even matter lmao
Sweet beloved that's a nice sword
Removes movement penalty for blocking quelling charging staves and brain bursting. Optionally, allows you to sprint at full speed while charging staves, brain bursting, and quelling
That’s my idea @feral verge
But yeah I'd like this too
touch staff
entire Heretic cell goes byebye
aiming the trauma staff at enemies that are at a higher elevation than you is so fuckin scuffed, you basically have to guess where you are aiming because you cant see the aoe zone
Just saw a reddit post that hurt my soul as a recon fan boy
as an oldschool forum kid, reddit just annoys the crap out of me
It w/e + haven't play that much
Why infested though? With maniac you'd be on the line to oneshot mutants
Like I say before, most of the time the target is close to dying to get max stack, only matter is now mauler not being super cheeseable with 180dot and now only 94 and scab rager now take the same dot as normal rager
Just use old.Reddit
the worst part of dying is being forced to watch how your teammates play ;-;
For me the worst part of dying is not getting pick up
oh I'm very dead lol
the same sniper with an absurd angle twice lmao
holy shit pick n mix
finally
there it is
Congrats
I do wonder what taking fs so long to balance range weapons
hopefully
Feel like all of them are mostly untouched
that'll be in the big patch at the end of this month
and you'll have your day with recons
Only thing I think they done was change ogryn range only
What’d you do to get it
And revolver ammo count
hi int damnation
and useless teammates who cant kill ranged enenmies lmao
lotta gunners
blew myself up
namely the headhunters
finally done
The day I can mag dumb without feeling the weight of the world crushing me for wasting ammo
Pick n mix or out with a bang you said?
man was just dogshit
Let me get the reddit post that mental boom me
pick n mix
had to detonate to get the last burst
I was testing me agripina infantry on vet and we get someone join in late "gunker is here to save the day"
less then a minute later
he is orange on ammo

columnus inf auto had a relatively huge change and its still shit
which gives u some idea of how bad it was

Why do people try to main gun
I did not see him not die in melee
we lost very quikcly
hellbores had quite a lot of changes
certainly to ammo efficiency
but the charge speed + ammo efficiency changes were huge
Oh yeah
actually laspistol buffs...? arguable both ways
I just hate mag dumper on recon / ammo uneffient guns
Like my brother in the emp, you going to run out of ammo
I was just watching this guy and was like this is why people don't like gunker
Go use the lasgun or something if u want to shoot all day
they think they are all like this
u wanna know what the best gun psyker weapon in the game is
its the agri IX headhunter
this is why you bring a bolter in pug games
and if you dont expect stuff like this from pugs 
shoots so slow u literally cant mag dump
I do need to try and get a deathspitter + dumdum recon in hopes of a buff
True, if only he keep the power sword he won't had to worry about the psyker forgetting what bb is
I try that combo and it feel 
Maybe I like infernus killing enemy off when I get stop by a random melee
tfw they basically nerfed recons this patch
got caught in the crossfire of the flamer nerf
Yep 
actually do uw anna see something inspirational
i warn u this is highly erotic footage
thats because recon is op youtubers said so
I think it would be mostly fine then again I only played 3 match so far and didn't notice too much of a difference
Been playing vr again so haven't play darktide as much
have you tried a deathspitter recon since the deathspitter buff?
yeah
Think I try it on my vet before, dumdum + death
these teammates ;-;
can already do it
But then again vet ult do alot of range bonus so i couldn't tell the difference
might be good on the slow firing one
what the Fuck
Yeah, it kinda dumb I love the vld the most but the 2 damage blessing are close range while that gun do more damage farer away
Watch the greatest mag dump on planet earth and millions of other Warhammer 40,000: Darktide videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.
have u ever seen a mag dump this fast and powerful
there u go sean

So fast
no full auto in buildings
i paid for this airsoft im goin full auto
I was shock to find out that gun was bad tbh
Use it on vet and was gaming vs shooter to keep ult up
tbh
i'd rather it work like it does when it breaks(ie single shot)
all the time
Fk the machine spirit
And fk hadron
Stupid fucking interrogator breaks every 10 seconds
Looking for advice on perks for Illisi Force Sword.
Personally I think unarmored and flak are best.
If you had to choose one, which would you choose and why?
If my choice was between unarmoured and flak, then I would pick Flak
Is force sword the only weapon in the game with infinite dodge count?
Unarmoured is only groaners (200hp), Dreg Stalkers (400hp), the bodies of Dreg Bruisers (450 hp), Dreg Gunners (idk), and snipers (idk) off the top of my head
all force swords have infinite dodge count
Unarmoured is important for ranged weapons to hit breakpoints and to kill dreg enemies faster, but it's not as important for melee weapons
yeah force swords are currently the only weapons in the game with infinite dodges
whereas two melee elites (Scab Ragers and Scab Maulers) are Flak, and those will usually get whacked by your melee and would preferably be liked to die faster
specialists are enemies you can tag that are ranged, and elites are enemies you can tag that are melee, right?
When the vet doesn’t notice the psyker BB like 4 times and then asks why the psyker didn’t BB
the intuition is that specialists spawn and are always aggroed onto you
Gotta love Reddit
enemies like mutants, flamers, snipers, trappers, and bombers
elites are enemies that pre-spawn on the map like ogryns (bulwarks, reapers), ragers, maulers, gunners, etc.
here's a list by Pygex #psyker-class message
However, there is something to be note
the game likes to use the word "Elites" when it really refers to both Elites and Specials
It also likes to use the word "Elites" to just refer to Elites
nono thats a 9
the one in my vid
if i was using a 7 the reaper woulda died before the reticle hit narnia

surgical buff actually made this kinda primo
Brought a Trauma into a Hi Int Doggo mission and never had so much fun
what surgical buff?
Meanwhile review dropped game from 65% (pre patch) to 59% - this is madness!
Watch sorgucail on hedhonter and millions of other Warhammer 40,000: Darktide videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.
it used to stack 1 stack per second
ah stealth buff?
think it was in patch notes
That's nice!
Gun i kept for a month or so waiting for this patch
guys think i shoul replace exe 4 with slaught 3 ?
i vote yes
it seems to proc alright if i keep aiming for the heads lol
unless they make an unforeseen buff to executor, that's a fine decision
Review bombers kek
it procs fine, but you also drop your stacks really easily
i guess deflector is kinda wanted now that they fixed the auto deflec
especially on the illisi, where activating your special will break a chain
personally I think deflector is kind of overrated
unless you go hard on it with stamina curios and make it your entire gimmick
depends on the skill level of people you're talking to
im mostly trash whos doin heresy and wants to get good enough for dam eventually if that helps rofl
obviously, my 1000 hours in this game means that I don't really need it, but a majority of people aren't spamming dodge-slides and whatnot
Normally you just need few seconds of Delector just make a safe move or block the shot you see coming
I also don't expect people to very quickly build muscle memory to specifically mitigate the need of deflector
i use it to gather energy for warp unleashed in a dramatic fashion then start swingin
I think that's mostly just a crutch for bad position. You can tank the odd shot or two even with base toughness, and regen it back quickly. I fail to see why you would systematically require deflector unless you are constantly overextending.
It's either Deflector or just Slide. Slide is not that reliable due to input issues that plague the game
why not overextend
people talk about being too passive with deflector, but then if you're aggressive with it, it's overextending
but i can only replace one blessing so even if deflector could be mitigated with skill is executor even worth?
no harm in testing your limits in how you can melee ranged enemies
in my early hours, I used to run into ranged enemies and then use Deflector to get out of it to test my limits
since it's not as though there are any solo private games to test it out
it's either deflector or troll my team
Vets sure do love shooting every single melee trash, but as soon as any actual threat shows up and me and the zealot are occupied with 6 crushers plus a mutie and 2 hounds, suddenly, their guns don’t work
200iq run away from your team when they do that
that's what I do, and I just basically play the mission solo until there are some melee elites that take too long to kill and they catch up
Those a newbie vets or bad regualr vets, there a normal and good one too, but hard to find 🙂
You can use deflector much more aggressively if you dodge slide quell
the new forceswords don't particularly need anything besides slaughterer anyway
my 1 extra cleave from unstable power
is precious
I suppose the only real breakpoint you're hitting with unstable power is on groaner bodyshots
yeah, crit is nice on the purgatus since crits apply two stacks of soulblaze instead of just one
yeah, crit applies 2 stacks of soulblaze instead of 1 and can exceed the max amount of burns
fastest in the west
I like it a lot. charge goes brr
Is arcotash shit talking deflector behind my back

Should I consecrate this again or just keep making blue tier purgs for more blessings
don't bother until you are 30
Dont bother with which one
Never spend crafting mats until level 30
Huge waste
ah ok
so just buy weapons with dockets?
Just use emperor's gifts and shit from the store
Yeah
Stockpile all mats until level 30
there is no hope in this world
Why then?
because weapons below level 30 are shit
and within 5 levels a legendary level 15 weapon will be made useless by a grey level 20 weapon
you dont want to spend precious crafting resources on items that will beocme shit in a handful of levels
trust me, when you hit level 30 in a bit, if you spent the whole levelling process spending all your crafting mats, you will regret it
its like living in a shitty cardboard box that you're spending money on upgrading with improvements, even though you know in 30 days you're gonna move into a nice house
might as well save all that money to make the house better
instead of polishing a turd
A gilded turd, sprinkled with gems
should I go for 5% crit or flak instead of unarmored
thats what I was thinking
they hated jesus because he spoke the truth
damn i didnt know jesus was hard wrong
There should be mandatory answer - that average vet can barely shoot and can't find his own ass with a GPS and a MAP
if you're purely evaluating the two classes based on the gun usage, then sure
but then that's ignoring brain burst, melee, and the other properties of the class
Can someone give me some tips on using the lightning staff
it's the worst staff imo
if you want a similar staff that does damage, try the purga staff
surge is pretty much a pure support staff most of the time; you'll be using melee to fill in the gaps
Or the best staff. Depends on how to use it 🙂
purga can stun everything and actually kill shit.
I currently only have the lightning staff
only thing purga cant stun is mutie
Lvl 7
it's really just a "if you like to melee and would like something to supplement that playstyle" staff
Yeah Purge doesn't do too much damage but it will stunlock literally everything
the stun is the big part of surge, so you don't usually charge the surge staff to full
just RMB and LMB as soon as you can, then swap off to melee or something else
It does kill the shit out of hunting ground hound waves tho
I've only got the axe and duelling sword so far
illisi/antax is the popular option to pair with surge
to make up for your lack of hordeclear
Thanka
call me when the vet starts exploding crusher heads just by thinking at them
u can do that without being a burden on your team aswell
being a burden in what way?
we've had this discussion a million times, and if the psyker is dumping ammo, that's a player issue
people sure love to confound player and build issues
@frigid frigate This is the one with massive cleave I Was talking about
That's sick
yes to both
except the Obscurus, the Illisi and Deimos force swords are very good
when people say gunpsykers are worse vets I just advise them to think of the gun that the psyker is holding as a new and special staff that shoots mindbullets and really who the hell cares about what weapon youre using as long as youre killing stuff.
the Illisi is a power sword but with significantly better mobility and on the Psyker who has better stamina economy
The Deimos has really good single-target and has stabs in its moveset that deal significantly more damage than the rest of the other attacks
a powersword that kills you when you touch it at a bad time
Based
illisi sword lets you get high peril very quickly
which is really nice for some psyker builds
this can be done by just spamming the weapon special over and over. its the only force sword with this capability
psykers are masters at edging
high level deimos' can 1 shot headshot mutants with the 2nd heavy attack, as shown here
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.
(no special charging required. its just literally a regular heavy attack to the head)
do the psyker deimos shimmy shuffle
Is there any actual way to tell if your surge lightning crit
What kind of build wants high peril?
most now
People run surge crits but does surge lightning do any sound or visual cue when surge crits
literally anything using warp unleashed and/or kinetic shield
I wouldn't say that a lot of builds "want" high peril, but it is a nice benefit if you're ever at high peril
doesnt it make the special noise?
Haven’t heard any special noise for surge lightning
its a longer kind of electic wind up noise
I just had the most amazing, stupid moment
I was deleting a horde with void, and the zealot went "the psyker bears watching!, and then my character respond with "this is how a professional does it!" right as I dodge off a cliff
I was laughing so hard I couldnt play anymore
I had my vet say something like "I think the sights on this gun are off" right after I had missed like 3 shots
fellow spark heads, i have a warp nexus flak armoured 379 purgutus staff. what should the secon perk be? crit chance? maniac?
I know it crits when I kill 5 elites at once in half a second
there is actualy a specfic visual for when a surge staff crits, lightning archs from the golden scymbol not just your hand
Nice
for trauma staff, should i just be looking for shockwave/and warp nexus?
everything else seems like it wouldnt work on it
warp flurry
works on everything now
is it just a damage buff to the second+ charge in a row
it makes you charge faster
speed buff to consecutive charges
Is voidstrike staff a good choice? or should I just use a different staff?
ah ok
its good yeah
tis my favorite staff
I personally wouldn't go for Warp Nexus because that's a bit unreliable, and the extra crit damage is not impressive
voidstrike isnt the best staff you can get but if you get transfer peril on a good roll it can do really well
even without it its fine just cant fire off shots as fast
Should I try the flame staff or trauma staff instead?
Flame is far better but trauma is a lot of fun and still fine so long as you arent throwing enemies behind your team
but void and truama are both very good
What perks should I run if I use the flame staff?
all of them are worth using, trauma just will take the most practice
flak is pretty important
God I hate the RNG crafting system. Amazing Force Sword ruined with two useless blessings:
Yeah excactly....
I'm going to save this one in the off chance FS decides to remove the stupid locks or provide a workaround
im not the biggest hater of the RNG stuff in this game but stuff like that is def an issue
I'm really trying to break my deflector habit, so maybe I'll replace exorcist with Slaughterer (I have a Tier 3 one of that)
I wouldn't mind the crazy RNG in terms of acquring things and hunting for blessings if they just removed the damn locks.
The locks brick too many weapons.
yeah that parts fair
or at least let me use something to release the locks
diamantine or w/e
I also thought that if they wanted to force players to keep finding + upgrading items, when you apply a blessing THAT's the one that gets locked. So you could apply two blessings of your choice but each one gets locked in kind
yeah that would work too
And then just have players pay X-diamantine to unlock a given perk level per slot, and just pick what you want from the list
also what are you referring to with deflector habit? like you dont know how to deal with ranged units without it or you just want to try something else?
I use deflector so much that when I play without it I'm too aggressive trying to close range and get caught in the open
i play better without deflector
Voidstrike with transfer peril and warp flurry is probably the best all round cookie cutter staff
you can kill hordes, stagger elites, you have range, decent damage. Other staves/weapons may do a certain task better, but void does it all OK ish and has no real weakness
Is the illsi actually that good, it takes 2 charged swings to kill most elites for me, where the others can kill elites in one
What does it need?
i 1 shot everything except ogryns and muties
ive already got purg for horde clearing
I need to get a T3 one but the Omnissiah has not been very nice to me
you dont need that to 1 shot elites
it takes two charged swings, but the special doesn't lock you in place
this is the one I picked up
and it's good for dealing with elites that are covered by other enemies
yeah
i know slaughterer is great
but i am saying its not a requirement to 1 shot elites
got it from a mission reward
Okay then yeah fair
this is what i use
Just hit a straight headshot
i am always at high peril
ideally 80% or higher
never go below 60%
i always have 6 stacks of warp charges
I pair it with Trauma Staff so I kinda need the low Peril to keep spamming
i 1 shot everything with illisi, except muties and ogryns
Isn't it 2-shot Mutie on headshot with just Special Light 1?
I forgot, haven't been able to test it
idk I dont usually try for non heavy swings when charged
t4 unstable power is 20% power at high peril. 6 warp charges is 24% damage. warp unleashed is 25% damage at high peril. in total that is 69% more damage
Heavy 1 - Light 2 loop is my horde clear loop, it's so perfectly horizontal that it's satisfying
those are the keys to 1 shotting with illisi
power and damage are multiplicative with each other
nice
1.2 * 1.49
but it do be true
I run Inner Tranquility with 6 charges for Trauma Staff so I can't stay at top Peril constantly if I wanna keep spamming Trauma and Ilisi :c
so its even more than just 69% more damage
more than just sex
more than just sex
nice
Guys you think ranged damage on poxwalkers or range weak spot damage is better on a trauma staff? good staff but bad perk rolls
another day, yet another moment where i bitch about not having unstable 4 to put on these bad boys
weakspot damage is never worth
weakspot bad
same with crit damage
Yeah thats what I was thinking, but also not getting anything out of the poxwalker damage really, ah well will swap out the weak spot
you kinda do one the truama tbh
the RMB is not hitting any headshots
with no damage buffs(not that it's hard to get those on psyker) you don't one shot damnation poxwalkers
Wowee reddit really doesn't like the trauma staff
As if you actually need warp resist on Deimos
Reddit also uses the slab shield so go figure
i want the low warp resist
its the first target dmg and finesse that are unacceptable to me
@steel flame
Sadge
i find it weird that people think that it charges slowly, but i suppose that's partly because it's the first staff you encounter and it has one of the widest stat scalings in the game
Obscruus really is a poor man's diemos these days. Diemos has better single target with l1h2 and is special, and it's lights have comparable horde clear to obscurus with slaughterer, there really isn't much reason to use it
Been using it with trauma and surge and it handles hordes just as well as obscurus but also has stupid fast dodge
i think they could buff obscurus by giving it pieces from deimos and illisi kit
have it's special not get you stuck on shit, like illisi
let it have the mobility of deimos
I actually kinda wish they had gone even harder into single target and horde clear with illi and diemos so obscurus was a nice middle ground
Instead it's just outclassed by both
i suppose they could always make the obscurus the mobility option
since the deimos has the same sprint speed scaling as the rest
True. Though the dodge on it might still make it better even with a sprint speed buff to obscurus
Odd, just pulled the boss mob into the elevator and it shut on us 😮
he just kind of stood there looking out, we killed him through the elevator doors
Oh snap.... I didn't realize unstable power gives the +X% power for EACH step of peril. I thought it was just maxing at that value at max peril. It's like, five times better than I thought it was 🙂
yeah its really good
its the 2nd best blessing, behind slaughterer
there are some builds though, where i prefer unstable power over slaughterer
(if i am forced to choose)
If i kill an enemy with void right click on crit with blazing spirit, will it count as soul blaze effect?
if they die to fire dot, yeah
wait REALLY
yes
t4 unstable power is 20% power at 80% peril or higher
holy
wtf
REEEE i fuckn hate seeing so many psykers
fuckn posers
you are one of them
you are one of the new wave of psykers
fairweather psyker
you have no right to complain
snowbird psyker, wait til the nerf bat comes around and they'll flock to a new home
exactly, nerf Psyker to cull their population
symbolically feeding the emperor
Whats the latest force sword preferred blessings?
slaughterer and unstable power
Still trying to collect all the t4's, bleh
Thanks!
stfu
i am literally not
I was psyker main the moment i got the game
Which was liek a week before the patch though
You just hit lvl 30
Peak Performance
is this a bit on how salty and dwarflike you are acting
oyu just did
within 2 weeks
maybe even a week. i dont keep track
you are one of these many new psykers running around
face it
psyker normie
i have a deimos like that
you have stupid logic
3 charges is 97%
level 300 godroll
based i love that
yeah ive gotten some really good FS in the last few weeks
i have a decent one of each
i have a few decent ones of each too
cuz i have made like hundreds at this point
trying to get unstable power 4
smh poser didn't buy the game the moment it released
pls
too bad I'm not at home to dunk on mankar
i'd give you shit too
the part about verm 2 i hated most is i couldnt GIVE the chests to other players
afdter nearly 4000hr in verm 2 id love to give the chest i earned to the people i played with
id go back and play right now if they made it like WoW same dungeon group trading
i'd give all of these t4s up
i have more lying around somewhere
after around 50k plasteel, this is what i got to show for it
im sad THIS One happens to have super dump stat warp resistance. id actually like to spam it. my best Illi has like 78% warp resist
yeah i dont have slaughter 4 yet sadface
i know
i have the 1 meme sword
was just gonna smash it anyway
i just like deflector so much
i like to force advance with it with infinite dodge
i just need to download the fucking mods that reduce the visibility issues with block
deflector huh?
like my shieldgryn sword
i have two
i have a +10 stamina build for the memes
what does the first perk do exactly here?
Increases your critical chance by 4%
gives you a second instance of damage when you critically hit
Also worth noting it's when you roll a crit, not hit a crit
understood
shiieeet
No beta helmet? Shame
The dunce top
Hi team, what to do with this one? Replace deflector with slaught t3? Which perk to replace, assume crit dmg?
yup
such a Deflector hater. smh
deflector took my candy when i was a mere baby
well in that case I understand
incoming "10% chance of curio" drop on the last roll
Very nice for blocking
KD scales with your stamina
so a single +3 stamina curio is roughly equivalent to 100% increased block efficacy
or if you don't run kinetic deflection, +stam is even more important
i wish you would get extra resources or items when leveling up beyond max
also true because you need the stam, yes
base stamina on force swords is big sad
I don't think two of them are necessary, as even a single one can easily let you tank a Damnation Daemonhost almost indefinitely with occasional dodging/quelling (provided nothing else gets you from behind)
and the force swords are bugged to have 50% more block cost currently
but a single +3 is very nice
from the front at least
since the inner block cost is the same as the outer angle block cost because of a fatfinger
I'm so fucking sick of this happening. Great stats, shitty perk and a tier 1 blessing
I run 2x HP curios and 1 stam
I used to run 3x HP, but find Stam more useful for my current setup
Didn't know that
why must hadron brick every single curio i roll :\
Not meant as a direct accusation to you, Mankar, though I'm sure it still is
but I feel like people who don't use a +wound curio are very cocky
it's such an important failsafe against a personal mistake imo

there's a big difference between "Okay, I made a mistake there and got myself killed, but that's alright, I've got a backup" and "Whoops, I made a mistake, guess I'll immediately die now if anything bad happens"
i'll be honest
i don't usually make too many mistakes between medicaes
if I go down twice
My thing is medicae is common enough
or would go down twice
Even in damnation
I've seen far too many people who it matters for to agree with you
almost invariably the people who have to be rescued in otherwise-successful clears are the ones with a single wound who went down once due to a mistake, and then die a second time to a poxburster mid horde or something
god emp why
anyway, that's my two cents. Glad the HP curios are working out for ya.
wao two t4 perks aren't you so glad
i take the least damage... as long as I'm the only psyker on the team
or there's no vet
i take the most damage as psyker 
I take little damage in general, but i tend to throw at critical moments and die
im just built the wrong way
hp curio mfs be like
yeah
i ran wound before
then my teammate don't revive me
and i wonder what the point of going down more then once
these are my most recent scoreboard screens as psyker. i didnt cherrypick and boards
im mai
i take the least damage in most games
that's why i feel comfy without wounds
1.4k damage taken 
I just realized this is like the perfect psyker scene: https://youtu.be/Nlahh27OlXs?t=64

WAIT THAT SAME GAME HAVE 1.5K
here's a zealot game i had this morning
im theil
caffeine, another zealot
almost took 3k dmg
3k HUH
yes
he went down 5-10 times
and did less damage than me
he had a heavy sword
i had a thammer
hi5
🤢
ikr
heavy sword is like ez mode zealot
he just kept charging ahead like billy badass
but got roflstomped literally every time
he went down so much idk if he had holy revenant
i took 1.6k, only went down once
i had holy rev
ok so only now i realised that warp resistance gets really useful only when you have flurry
any psykers wanna help out me and another for Malleus Monstorum penance? im doing ogryn with shield to help out another, then we swap
we can help you do it after too
i am in
You can tank it as a psyker as well. Just need to have +9 stamina 
if we don't have an ogryn, i already assume someone is the dead the second they hit the deck
zealots never use their nades, vets are hopeless, and we psykers probably used f to quickly pop some ogryns
I see people run 3 wound qurios and that just tells me they need a babysitter or they'll ragequit halfway into a mission
Carapace
Carapace DMG is shit on illisi by default
So a carapace perk is just gonna make it slightly less shit
Change carapace to mutant
Carapace seems better than 8% groaner dmg though, no?
You don't want to use illisi vs carapace
Just BB
I'd only consider Deimos vs carapace
You'll get more mileage out of the 8% because you're always killing groaners and poxies with illisi
But sometimes you don’t have the luxury of BB when you needa swing into the horse with mixed Carapace
Are damage perks additive or multiplicative?
I’m not sure 8% would be noticeable since it already shreds them
It won't be noticeable on the first few
