that's true
I don't know why I'm working against myself anyways
I want to hog all the kills in a game
smh
just humble me nerfing myself
I genuinely get happy when I see psykers with deimos and other melee weapons since that means that I get to hog the melee kills
You would love playing with me then
I bring the obscures
š
āLate Aprilā so Iād say expect next week or the week after
perfect
time to style on this OLD and OUT WITH THE TIMES fella
Any news on console launch for Karktide and about cross-play?
Lmao they mentioned it in stream apparently but the response was kinda disappointing apparently
Basically no real date but not forgotten
it will revitalize game a bit...
Something about getting it to good state first blah blah
Idrk most of the time I play darktide Iām like spaced out trying to kill time
Only the salt and anger from shitty teammates briefly awakens me
I do not see it happening unless drastic measures taken for everything outside the missions š
Also playing with clueless newbies have it's own charm
The charm of role playing a babysitter
I had one very heartwarming mission with at least 2 players being very fresh, they kept taking damage and going down, but. And it's a great but - they did thier best to stay in coherency and stick together and close to me - that make me smile and caused a few sentimental tears to come out
That's too š
i have come to conclusion that damage is the dump stat on trauma
my staff with 49% damage is cleaning the same way my staff with 80% damage does
yup; you can usually hit the breakpoints with the help of warp charges/perks
could also just be people recently coming back to the game tbf
Yeah this is probably it
I took focused channeling off my trauma and kept on getting staggered out of my cast since I have the habit of sprint-sliding with it constantly
was very sad
which of these 2 should I keep?
i would keep the first one but i rarely use trauma
not great choices, but probably the right one?
it could really go either way; I'd just grab a coin and flip it to decide
or left one; I'm not sure about the quell speed scaling, but it's probably fine to lose some quell speed
now that I think about it more, probably the left one
I like second more
I think unyielding is better than carapace
Also I donāt think you will recognize warp flurry 3 to 4 on trauma
But such a trendy click bait title tho. Might be karma farming.
People do weird things for internet points.
the title does have the implication of the illisi being underrated when it's really not, but I think it's fine
You Wont Believe What This Weapon Can Do⦠Spoiler (|| it kills zombies||)
it's just occurred to me that the dueling swords are psyker only, yet they don't have any sort of warp ability to them
like how the laspistol special push is a warp push when you use it on psyker
wonder why they didn't bother making anything special for it
yeah well its a such an iconic fencing weapon that space mages were so famous for using that it didnt need anymore uniqueness
they went yknow what fuck it no cleave blessings no nothing just lotsa garbage
duelling sword needs more cool s hit
speaking of, the dueling sword special is kind of crap, isn't it?
its uh
a lil goofy
certainly not as spicy as i woulda thought i t should be
i think one duelling sword has its heavy damage reversed too
like it has a stab heavy that has no where near the right damage
thatll be mk2
I used that for ages in the early days of psyker, no wonder it felt wonky
heavy 1 does less than heavy 2
what are good blessings for Maccabian sword?
We all know what players want to do with fencing Sword
Something like Durchsetzungburg shool of fencing from 7th Sea RPG
This isn't S-tier, but i am pretty happy with it š
What would be S Tier
Higher blessings and that coveted 380 modifier would be a dream
Marginal difference. This is S Tier
One day these weapons will be considered rubbish, when we can go 100%
$$$$$
Yea :C
what blessings for Purgatus? thx in advance
Warp nexus and no interrupt
So apparently reducing particle intensity on the config file reduces not only flame particles, but also can remove hit effects and toughness break
theres a mod that just removes fullscreen effects
so u can pick
if das what u w anna do
Got a pretty good clip of some rare dialogue between Loner and Professional
https://medal.tv/games/warhammer-40000-darktide/clips/13ikfYfwwe6cxP/d1337SNfSls5?invite=cr-MSxnNEgsMzg5MDAwLA
Watch Pissing off the Professional and millions of other Warhammer 40,000: Darktide videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.
Worth buying?
I wouldnt buy this unless you dont have a trauma yet. The perks are not great, and its missing flurry, although that can be slotted in
Thought the Rending blessing might be worth. Thanks š
Pretty nice when they fix surge
Any suggestions?
For sure replace Riposte with something. Not sure what though.
I have deflector, but was thinking something for more pew pew
Unstable Power is an option
Yeah, it's 4% per 20% peril
unstable is what I have been told to partner with slaughterer
no 
if you go full damage yea
you can use quell on hit + slaughterer/unstable
or deflector
I have also seen shred on some above. Just less sure about how to build Illisi...
No shred
Shred is for the meme fire blessing and that thing won't overtake just using the special and mauling things dead
Also 7a recon psyker is actually kinda competent 
The gun is killing in 3-ish bodyshots
Laspistol with fullauto is great.
Running ghost and toughness regen. It's hilarious.
itsā¦.fine for shooters ig
I'm liking it
It's nothing to write home about, but fun to use
Though maybe I just got the right stuff clicking together
I remember it being ass when I tried it on its own
They nerfed it? How?
its not 5s after special kill anymore
its next swing after special kill
do any other psyker weapons roll with critical bonus stat besides surge?
Laspistol has innate crit chance, I think
I can't find the list on search, but I think Sean has one with the values
If memory doesn't fail me it was +10%
Gun psykers ew
Psyker stilll OP?
OP your arse
There is a sense in a saying that "Psyker is not OP" - less chance for future nerfs
Now there should be a campaign about ""Volley fire is too OP. Please nerf" from the same players who baited Fatshark into nerfing Flamers and Powersords.
Need to suffer more š
Like we did
And only after everything is taken from them - buffed back to glory š
Meta-rotation-cycle
And it needs to feel personal - like nerfing Kentarel MG XII, and camouflage feat š
Last one will add positive reviews
And there will be tasty incoherent screaching from camo -vets š
No
Taking away guns from Psyker first
Then vet camo nerf
Respect duh line bruh.
Not your turn yet.
Taking away few guns from Psyker (bad guns) - will be a massive buff to class - easier to finally karking get staffs!
And first perk borked - turning upgrade into bad gamble
you can get it for the blessing anyway
Low on funds so I'll just pass on it
debating if this is worth it
depends ....
stats wise its not super good, but tbh a low dmg roll on trauma isnt the worst thing that can happen. you can keep the 20 flak and roll unarmoured or infested. you can either keep focused and add flurry, or make a meme staff with blazing spirit. or you just strip the nexus off
I was going to take nexus off for this one
why did I keep blazing spirit on this one, I dont know this was a while ago Im pretty sure the other blessing as a tier 1
I think it was tier 1 warp nexus actually
question is, how much marks do you have? is that staff all you can afford ? skip it. are in the 10ks and want to complete your blessing collection ? go for it
yeah I only have 4k
then you probably gonna bit your ass if tomorrow you can buy a slaughterer 4 force sword ^^
i got a good rolled nexus / spirit trauma. its not worth it. go for flurry with inner tranq
the rule of melk dictates that if he buys it now then the sword will apear as he won't be able to buy it
but if he doesn't buy this then it won't appear
this is true and I already have unstable power 4 so
true, i have 14k and havent seen anything good for weeks
would be nice to have slaughter 4 š
š
i read earlier that u can reduce fire effect from flamers and staff. does one remember or know?
You mean visual effects?
From flamer no, but for peril effect should be in settings, interface i guess.
does Purg staff have something like Showstopper?
No.
is quell speed the dump stat for trauma?
nevermind, tested quelling in psykhanium and quell speed is shit
I mean it's a dump but not that much of a dump
most dump stats you don't want that low
@river sand that sword a bute
^ this ain't a Purgation Flamer bb
I lament the blessing lock system a lot more this morning than usual. I had a nearly picture-perfect max stat Trauma Staff with good perks that got bricked from blessing rolls
perfect trauma for me would be 80 damage/charge rate 75 blast/warp 70 quell
Note that they say "earn" in the notes
Can't wait for them to make it a purchase instead

I need the eyes cover with the top arching bit, but it's nice nonetheless
IM NUTTING
that look so cool
so glad i saved my money on buying stuff instill now
WAIT IT FREE

Rejects, This is Catfish, Darktide Community Manager, here with another comm-link update! We established these comm-links to answer some of the communityās questions and to give information about upcoming patches. We will release a tiny impromptu patch next week which will implement a few changes to the vote kick system and some small balance c...
Oo nice
What curio blessings do you feel are optimal? Currently running stamina wound and toughness.
Free cosmetics? and they look good? Well god damn
Health as main for sure.
I run triple HP.
I run 1 wound and 2 hp
Need to get some HP curios then
@viral solstice
Please; what is the quickest way to make yourself explode when you need to for the penance?
That ain't a bad look TBH
Illisi force sword special spam gets you there in a few seconds
charging up the blade to attack?
Yes, just keep spamming it until you blow up
his FS specifically has low warp resist btw
like 41% or something
if you have 80% it'll still take a while
LOL that looks wrong
Just keep stroking
You gotta stroke it till you explode.
Let's see if we get any bug fixes on the next patch. Like, you know... Deflector block reduction not working and Wildfire bugged AF.
Fatsharkās OG penances have broken us
The Ogryns thought they needed a multikill with one lunch box
And then 5 of those without missing any
sounds about right
Half of me expected a penance where I had to finish a damnation game only using BB
It's only one of them. Expect there to be more for the set but they did state it will be easier penances to complete this time.
Ah, why
Gonna be funny when looking down the weapon sights with that.

Inb4 the take out a monstrosity with a peril explosion on Damnation or higher
ohh or maybe a speedrun achievement like
zealots
finish the game on full warp charges more than 80% of the time
in less than 30 minutes
or some shit
The pox burster changes sound great! Anyone know if "Reduced melee stagger resistance on Poxbursters during their lunge animations, so that melee attacks can stagger Poxbursters more reliably." Means it won't require 2 bars of stamina to push a poxbuster? Or does that mean only melee attacks?
Kill an assassination target by doing 95% of the damage by you and using perils of the warp only
on damnation or higher kekw
FatShark should release a head cosmetic that is the cloth mask over the nose and mouth with no eye cosmetic
kekw
No they should make it Path of Trust
oh jeez
The song that plays during the level 30 cutscene
Or at least increase the volume of the last man standing
Most of the time I canāt hear it
most of the time I'm dead before it even starts playing
cuz double mutants and a poxhound funny
like the current last man standing music
smh
I fancy the idea of that paid mask and goggles for the vet, but without the mask
makes it sound like my character wants to lay down and die
no hype at all
give me some hype music smh smh
2023 and the only improvement was a back slot and separating legs and arms

We don't even use the back slot outside of the edgy backpack from the deluxe edition
Killing Floor 2 limited you to 3 cosmetics, but you could put most of them together and actually could use a console command to equip anything together
my main issue with the cosmetics is you cant really mix them
they all are their own set
and mixing literally anything makes you look mad goofy
yknow how the penace set has color variations via the armory?

why not with the other cosmetics
so you can mix them together due to the matching color scheme
honestly the main thing you would have to do would just have the main cloth of the piece be able to be swapped out
which they literally can do as shown with the penance set
Fatshark hasn't developed the small indie studio technology Digital Extremes used for Warframe 12 years ago

idk im probably just too spoiled with destiny 2 shaders
Destiny 2 shaders are dog shit
That's the good part, yes 
so for the ones that are good, you can mix and match armor and make a good looking set
Imagine actually being able to dye your gear instead of being stuck to colours lmao lol
in darktide its use the set lole
i mean
each armor piece in d2 can have its own shader
and theres like
hold on im gonna check the exact number of shaders
ngl the implementation of the shader system pisses me off
They have an icon with 4 colours, but the position of these colours doesn't even correspond to where they will go in the armor
And they prove that each armor can have individual parts dyed, but still decide to create fixed and oftentimes colour vomit patterns
yeah thats the bad part
but the good part is just how much you can do with it
cuz of how fucking many there are
So I simply cannot colour my armor black and gold with blue lights
āLeast itās not as bad as infiniteās system
Same shader icons as D2, but the actual main colors could be anything else/only in a certain part of the armor
wow thats a lot of options
even more so when you can mix them as well as mixing the armor itself
vs darktides "you have to run the full set otherwise you will look really weird"
goofy as hell
You mean you donāt like the Christmas red hood smh
Tbf, that chest piece/lower is pretty damned hard to put a good headpiece on
The headpieces already don't cooperate by making everyone bald
Don't we have like a system in games that checks for collision between two models and just erases the texture at the point of collision?
I think CSGO developed something like that for the guns because they kept sticking out of walls if people were too close
Not a lot of devs think outside the box

Not an insult to the devs
But a lot of them donāt really accommodate for stuff like that
I'm actually weirded by it because they have a system that erases textures for enemy wounds
Mostly likely because they think, āmeh. The gameās in first person anyways, and the hoodās pulled down pretty far. People arenāt going to notice all too muchā
When you thunder some twat in the face you can see the helmet disappear and some flakes of the texture still floating because they weren't properly erased
Yeah, but at the same time one could think that what really matters is only the arms in a first person game
Even the aforementioned CSGO went the route of player model changes and stuff
worth it on surge?
Oh well, maybe one day 
or are there higher priorities?
Mainly because the other player is all youāre gonna see
If you're not doing damage with surge, I'd say not
In a game like CSGO, models are rather important
though I rarely use surge
Warp flurry and warp nexus BiS on surge
Probably worth it but i think nexus is the more important one
I need flurry most on trauma
The stun is long enough to allow for another blessing, isn't it?
Ye, but pumping out surges is always nice
Specially since the main focus is to stun instead of damage with the surge
I don't have any nexus on surge but I have lv4 on another staff 
I just noticed this psyker skin has a cape 
cant w8 for it
Also, on Trauma: Focussed Channeling or Rending Shockwave
The hair isnāt deleted
?
Amazing
Rending Shockwave
amazing advancement in technology
excited for these new cosmetics fr
Rending shock is better for teammates
Is this a legit outfit?
yes
Check their post
My problem is I'm on the Game pass where at times I can't find any games on heresy and damnation. I'm legit thinking of buying this game on Steam
yeah. also seems vet is getting something
all classes will i reckon
yeah they say each class gets one
probably on top of the shop items they'll likely add
Hopefully ogryn gets a proper shirt or something
(that is assuming these are penance cosmetics)
it's a good thing they worked on more penances for the classes, instead of addressing bad blessings on weapons
They are
more penances is sure to help retain playerbase
I think the psyker outfit looks better
Iām more upset they did more penances instead of addressing the old ones 
The hoodie looks so generic
the visor looks neat on it
but it wouldn't mesh well at all with the normal cosmetics i feel
since it's all green
true, just wondering how it'll look on the stuff already in-game
Vetās hood will be harder to integrate tho
if it isn't aggressively colorful it'll be fine
I'm just glad they're still focusing on this game. Beforehand my go game was Back 4 Blood and the community is becoming so dead, also it started to not become fun anymore with it's bad mutations
Take a look at Vetās underhive cosmetic. Specifically, the goggles/bandana.
gonna be like vt2 and turn into a really good game a year or two after launch š
Either Iām colorblind or they share a similar hue
Darktide launched like half a year ago, of course they're still focusing on it 
Two years tops
Different types of devs working on cosmetics and blessings. I doubt there's much overlap, so they wouldn't be the balance fixing people anyway
Or whenever they release the console port
i dont think so?
blue vs green
Darktide is so good it made me buy VT2 which I still haven't played
Hmm
Honestly the blessing issues don't bother me bc this game is so fun
Give it a long enough time
They really could use some balancing, but really the problem ones are 75% of the ogryn's blessing
I'm already trying to beat hishock5 and really enjoy the teamwork and challenges this game brings vs all of my past coop fps games. This game is just so satisfying
Just play GTFO if you want challenges
thank you mr milk
Games very hardcore masochistic
Why canāt I get t4 flurry on my surge
u dont whisper sweet nothings to sire milk
Gtfo looks to have too much stealth for me, I played rainbow six extraction and I'm more of a constant action type of guy
do I want warp nexus and maniac on this ?
You think that
I wouldn't say gtfo and darktide have much in common for gameplay besides requiring teamwork
And then you realize you are only stealth maybe 30% of the time
Cuz shitty game design
That's a really good staff. After playing a few hishock5 I feel terrifying barrage might be a great blessing specifically for that extra challenge
Actually exoprimal is coming out in I think July, it should be the next big horde like game
wait a sec, am i reading this right? you get 2 charges everytime you would gain one?
that can't be real
for surge tho?
Only rly useful if you plan on running melee psyker
gonna try a surge build bc i've slept on it since its inception
Surge I run KB
Depends on how you play surge rly
Someone like @feral verge runs melee 80% of the time and surge only for specials and sometimes flak shooters
Thatās where quicken is useful I guess cuz 6 second CD on ability help run up to enemies
Otherwise just use KB
i see
Quicken is now "decent"
I personally think surge is the best support staff for damnation
It's actually a valid choice
i've mostly been running purg and maybe void
but gonna try out funny warp lightning
I mean surge is only support really
so it'd be hard for it to be the best at anything else
The next pre team I'm going to try shock in hishock5, they asked me to do purge but i think shock would have been more useful
purge is amazing until you run with two zealots that run flamer
Yeah but I can't hit long range enemies and I think my team is good enough to handle the non elites
If you are pugging you will find more success with purge ngl
Cuz the average pug teammate is
Bad
Oh this is for a pre team, purge is fun to play aggressively though in pubs
Oh pre team you can run surge
Sometimes my Ogryn spawns in bare chested
Sometimes my psyker spawns in without a chest
sometimes my psyker doesnt spawn
flurry is the most needed for trauma right?
Yes
Iāve tried a lot and I think purge is the best you can bring
Purge melts everything thatās not a crusher
Wait we can vote kick in this game, if so how do we do that? I've had some bad toxic players in the past
One of the options in the menu when you press escape
The problem with Quicken is that it's inconsistent to get your warp charges back, even at 2x. So you have to compare 2x charges, to "permanent" 6 charges with KB (and the benefits of fast brain burst).
I've tried to make it work, but I prefer the consistency of 6 charges.
For long range engagement you still have BB and if shit hits the fan you have your ult and illis
Also I donāt think you need any warpcharge chenanigans with purge. Just set everything on fire pull out illis 1 special kill 3-5 poxis and see everything melt with your 75% power buff
I donāt think psyker has the tools yet to handle every situation like some ogryn builds but I think purg psyker is decent enough
Thank you I'll look for it
Also block push on FS is bonkers
Oh yeah you can knock down crushers with the push block
If you're solo I too think purge is the best staff to have
Hello everyone! Just joined the server because I got these three FS MK V and I can't really decide which one to use:
https://ibb.co/FJfvzW0
https://ibb.co/Dg5m3Kv
https://ibb.co/dkfdnRG
Fairly sure the best staff for PUGs is autopistol
isn't collateral really strong?
stopping power is dmg
collateral is just stagger
but i find autpistol already has a fuck ton of stagger
so it rarely matters

ADS if you need more
That is a pretty intense autopistola
You don't need +infested
@ionic needle I would use 3 if you really want to melee everything, and reroll to +flak
Have you autopistol blazed yet?
Yeah I know +flak is probably better, I'm thinking that I mostly use it for horde clear and a lot of those are infested
Sword for horde clear, BB for Ogryns, for everything else there's
Thatās the point. Vermintide 2 pumps you up, but DarkTide tells you that chaos is closing in and you donāt have much time left
Damn nice pistol!
Haha yeah, one could say it... shreds
i have blaze away III
i just have to upgrade it
I think he's refering to ascendant blaze, no?
Yeah
Blaze away isn't that huge, pinning fire is 80% of it
Barely
I enjoy running Kinetic Barrage more, since it lets me deal with ogryns and bosses better
TBF you do uncork the whole mag with auto pistol sometimes, but blaze isn't applying much bonus on average.
Just gotta try Autpistol + Ascendant at least once
1000% this. Being able to color swap the paid cosmetics with dockets or penances would be an amazing addition. COD MW2019 actually had this surprisingly enough
was about to tear into you for comparing this game to cod then i remember we have literal weapon camos 
need to change infested for flak then its good enough
I suppose it doesn't matter much since poxwalkers get one-shot by the voidstrike anyways, but weakspot damage is not that good
if you deal 100 bodyshot damage and then 120 damage on a weakspot hit, the +10% weakspot damage will make you deal 122 damage on a weakspot hit
speaking of void strike any one else finding themselves reliably and repeatedly doming snipers hidden behind a wall of chaff... on accident? each time i do i have a little psyker inspired cackle irl
oh then id be better if i swap weak for flak?
probably
that's what I'd do since I don't particularly think that weakspot damage will help, and I might as well keep +infested just in case
though weakspot will apply to every enemy even if it'll only add like 10 damage to a weakspot hit on a voidstrike secondary
weakspot damage lmao
big rip on the perks yeah
infested and weakspot are both kinda E
ye was unhappy with bot of them but didnt know weakspot was that bad
atleast the blessing combo feels great and it rips through damnation even with suboptimal perks
Rashad is getting fixed. The crab will lose their shit
Yes, there's a 15 second CD and it won't proc when you're >97% peril
I think it's great paired with Shredder since it quite often pops mutans, dogs and maulers
It's also good to regen some warp charges
for most builds, flayer is primarily for maintaining your warp charges
usually an option between communion + warp battery or aura + flayer
It's not awesome if you're already running AB and/or Communion
No +8% total damage 
I was wondering if it could possibly trigger usefully from surge
does it have priority for higher value mobs?
From my possibly unlucky usage of surge, I'm under the impression each activation rolls for a brain burst instead of each damage tick
It also doesn't seem to have any priority, so if you cleave a mixed crowd the game can "oops" a brain burst into a poxwalker instead of the shotgunner you were trying to wreck
though flayer will not proc on killing blows
ye
This is actually really good because surge almost never kills past the 2nd target
No collateral 
eh i find autopistol has insane stagger already anyways
I swear though Iāve seen it trigger on brain bursts
brunt just gave me this blue, and i decided to just do it.
its probably still good
did u try it out in psykanium\
naw my daughter just woke up
ive used purg for maybe 2 matches out of my 350 hr
on psyker
i think it time to give it ago**
I never got to try out Purgatus during the time I was trying out weapons because I was a victim of the Purgatus crash in the beta. Hundreds of hours later and I still havenāt touched it
since getting mods, every time i have a purg psyker in the group, they murder everyone ##wise
Good for them
im happy to say ive been top every game since , by just being that much more vigilant at collecting, staggering, coherency etc and not fucking around at all
yeah we make it to the end, we all get the goods ya
I refuse to use the scoreboard because I know if I do Iāll be constantly comparing myself to my teammates in a desperate attempt to feel useful
i have 4000hr between verm 1 and 2, i know at this point i can just use it as a tool
when i use surge for instance, it still rewards me for different things than when im just bowling ball blasting the entire match
if you do it properly
i go, baby time
i would roll the crit chance to maniac or unyielding
crit in this game is so bad
dunno y they made the numbers so shit
crit makes purg double proc its soulfire stacks
purg is the only staff it has value on
a crit is 2 stacks vs non crit is 1
What is āitā here? Crit?
all the damage is from the soulfire stacking, hence 44% damage means nothing at all
edited
no direct damage does make a decent chunk
the problem is
that the variance is rly small
the difference between 0 and 100% is like 9-11 a tick
Are you saying crit is only valuable on Purgatus?
but what if you do controlled bursts?
crit is valueable on surge and purge and basically it
unless you wanna go for a crit strike or crit trauma i guess
i had @still hearth telling me all the crit modifiers are garbo for all the staves, but can make surge staff stagger more or something. i cant remember. gotta go though, my daughter is starting to wake up
i will read this tomorrow at work to see what people add
at least in my testing, I didn't notice any particular stagger from crits on surge
Crit still good on surge because damage
The crit chance is good. I haven't said anything about crit damage affecting stagger though.
I mean the saying goes that crit increases stagger but i never notice kekw
even the crit damage on surge is meh
Surge is meh* fify
Why does surge need more stagger when it already staggers everything?
fuck you
it only has a high multiplier on unarmoured and infested because of the rending bonus
surge is best staff
Like how does that work
typical derpy L
Whenever i see people say āxā makes surge stagger more I donāt understand what theyāre saying because surge staggers everything already
surge staff is psykers answer to the ogryn shield
Oh you thought you could do no damage? Behold.
Reroll +Maniac to +Flak so Ascendant Blaze kills scab shooters.
i miss flak burn dmg
had a mauler walk through my half charge of purge just now
didn't feel good kek
Yeah still makes me ??? that the flamer nerf hit psykers harder than the flamer
hey i think that surge is good
But the nerf didn't really affect the AP Psyker builds much. It just messed up Purgatus and wildfire builds
it messed up the soulblaze talents which is a core build strategy in our feat tree, luckily i didnt use it much, the nerf just solidified that
it missed up a bunch of off meta builds
AP psyker I ran KB anyways
I didn't particularly value the horde clear from AB since illisi exists
would much prefer to quickly delete the two snipers and bomber in the back with KB
A large benefit to AB is that it clears out rooms of entrenched shooters. Which speeds up the game and saves a lot of ammo
oh yeah but ngl thats what I bring the AP for XD
but yeah a bunch of niche builds on psyker got hit hard which is feelsbad
the wrack and ruin users got slapped lmao
so did the inner tranq cause warp unleashed > all
same range as your psy wrath like 30m
30m and it hits through walls
like through all walls?
It has issues with some floors
like if you are on a drop and you try to AB people above or below you good luck
ffs not a single psyker weapon at Milky
Tbh i wish they would cut most of the guns for psykers and also some melee weapons
We only need the shredder and the staffs
My laspistol now fires Slaanesh's used condoms
dunno just would pref higher chance of getting staves instead of guns esp at melks getting multiple days of not a single staff sucks
what talents do you guys usually run on voidstrike?
Tbh it doesnāt matter imho. First row 2nd Rest is as you please
Would love to have an option to infuse guns with warp energy maybe with quicken. Change to not reduce cooldown instead you gain brainbursts on your next x attacks where x is the number of consumed warpcharges
Maybe a bit OP
Kinetic - it's in the name, let us do more cool stuff than fire yeah? ... Well I guess bb and psykinetics wrath counts ...
IMO, either give us warp guns, or a gunker subclass that does warp gun stuff
Give us even more evasion shenanigans and reload speed, make movement our cool thing.
Yeah, a warp enhancer that uses the warp to make their physical actions better
Well it looks like our class is mostly finished, maybe in a sub class or alternate career choice. I guess we'll see.
I hope the āprotectorate/wyrdvaneā class in the files has a more team protect or supportive abilities
Though the name sounds more like we need protection
Shield dome
āProtectorateā = the state being protected
And wyrdvanes fight in groups usually to bolster their powers because they arenāt in full control
Iām assuming itās gonna have some focus to coherency
Imagine a bubble your Allieās can walk into and out of but enemyās canāt enter and you can shoot out but are protected against shooting on the inside
Or a teammate assigned bubble like warrior priest Saltzpyre
I like that idea, more movement might not hurt though. The shield reminds me of shieldgryn
𤷠never played vermintide
No no no, do the saltzpyre route and you can assign the bubble to someone
Maybe the shield bubble pops when you get hit and it staggers everything around you gives you a speed boost to hehe. Just had to work that in there.
The warrior priest dlc career for vt2 makes the chosen player immune for 5 seconds before it explodes
When using their ability
The pop part is also vt2 
Looking back at the December leak, which is of course multiple months old (so take with a grain of salt), the author does mention seeing files for protectorate that mention chainlightning and āforce_fieldā and āforce_field_domeā and āpsychic_fortressā
Actually looking at that post with all the insignia that was unreleased, thereās a psyker one with a shield on it sooo
though I suppose the extra stagger from rending will help
Is this surge salvageable?
yes somewhat
swap sprint to flak and barrage to nexus
or flurry works too
nexus better
It's a surge staff, so
All's it needs is high/decent modifier rolls
For charge time/cost
I would swap run n gun
The "best" legendary surge is only 10% better than a grey surge
At the end of the day, you just use it for stun
So I wouldn't worry about getting a godroll surge
Yours is good enough
Another Win for surge staff players
That's why the only good feeling/truly successful surge build I've made uses melee 80% (or more) of the time
Only using surge for clutch stuns of special/elite groups, or sometimes shooters behind cover
If a damnation psyker is using surge way more than melee, like on hordes and shit they're going about it all wrong
I love the feats combined with illisi on surge staff build
Yeah I run illisi
Itās so much fun and breath of fresh air compared to purgatus build
Very nice!
(notice how I didn't include my surge staff because the staff doesn't matter lol)
(only thing that matters to me is charge time and warp resistance)
Mine has all 70s anyway
Lol, yeah Iāve been just rolling illisi trying to get that perfect one!
nice t3 slaughterer
I have nexus and flurry on my surge and stuff is in 70s! Yeah the staff itself is pretty unimportant which is hilarious
Can we ban this guy
This is highly problematic and deeply offensive
foolish fool revealing your weakness
(I still don't have slaughterer 4)
Skill issue
And I'm finally cleared to work as an armored car driver now
time to test this meme out and see if its worth approaching on an actually good trauma staff
So I don't have time to farm for slaughterer now
just lost a mat run on low damnation w/ scripts because the zealot intentionally fought the DH
So I can only.hope for melk
Surge gets me through those hi int shock trooper missions though
ive seen it today
Has been last few days
lemme check the map
I've been seeing it
Havenāt seen sniper though
Atleast uhh 2 days ago
not on the map atm, but ive run a few earlier today
But it was on hound I think
it is on hound
Damn still?
but shock still shows up now and again
Feels like it's been on hound forever
yeah
Hope trauma works out well! I havenāt used one either but am interested in results.
i started playing in early january and started back up late march
both times it was hound
I stopped playing in December, picked it up again in February
Been playing it like mad these past few months, waiting for my job's paperwork to go thru
Why barage? run n gun is worthless
Barrage is even more worthless
Run and gun atleast gives you a feature (it's not useful, but it's a feature)
faaair
staff lmb already suppresses anyways
Barrage is unless because the staves already stun and suppress
So functionally, barrage adds nothing new
You might as well have no blessing there
It makes your orange staff into a purple staff
P much
plus it is procced on kill
and everyone knows thats what the surge staff does best
getting kills
Yeah, and only around you
lol
This is true, you saw my scoreboard I just posted
That was all my surge staff I swear
Barrage getting absolutely roasted
the only time i can see barrage being useful is if you go into heresy or lower with a trauma staff and just walk into enemies exploding the staff at your feet
ive seen a guy do that once
and he did it to great effect actually
Iāve really only used it on my brauto on vet with hit & run
he soloed basically every enemy and engagement with the W key
They should add in the tooltip that the suppression per kill rises per rank too.
Have there been any staff blessings datamined that might be added?
On one hand itās nice having a small blessing pool for surge and purg but thereās really only 2 blessings that you really want out of 5.
Every melee weapon wants slaughterer though tbf but the pool is more bloated with shit so idk
To be fair if you mix in headshots with the surge it increases your kill speed, especially against non elites
Or surge/stab them if they are close enough
But FatShark if you are listening so buff surge # of targets
Makes me wonder how many volts are getting pumped into anything that gets zapped.
Nurgle made his flock grounded or part rubber.
ahh yes, a team full of psykers with no disconnects, two voidstrikes and a purge, oh and the great columnus mk5 infantry autogun
bullets do travel faster then sword swings, puffs of fire, and whatever the voidstrike shoots
relay station 
feels good, but also im too dumb to use a staff ... but at least ive got some semblance of skill
Technically if you can manage peril you can use Purgatus because in my opinion that is the lowest skill floor staff
this past week or so ive only used guns, before it was usually autopistol or purge
Seriously wtf is āenemies staggeredā actually counting because I doubt you actually all fought 3.5k enemies
probably staggering same enemy multiple times
it was low intensity damnation with dogs
and yet we found so very little plasteel
cuase it's relay station
The desert maps are bugged, they have pre-buff plasteel in the map
map is still bugged
ohhh
I think it may just be relay station that is bugged
that makes sense, thanks for the info
the other desert maps seem to be fine
that's relay station I believe
i just loaded into a mission that had literally already ended
Itās gotta be
commsplex?
or relay station
i just read what you said now nvm
im stupid
Np
Iād love to load into a mission just ending and get free loot
I always load into one just starting or one gone to hell
i loaded into someone saying OOOH YOURE TARDED and i got to say HELL YEAH I AM before they had left the mission lol
lol, oh godd
@prisma perch on a scale of one star to five stars, I rate this staff a happy 4th of july
Had a game where when I reloaded back into it I was clipped inside the dropship floor
Has FatShark changed it so perils of the warp can kill you if you are at deaths door with corruption?
Right on! š¤
Instead of just downing
If you have all your wounds corrupted and you peril explode, do you die instead of being downed
I remember in the beta you didnāt die
yep you insta die
The warp will take you
yea youve always died
Its the only right way to do "going out with a bang"
I like the look of that penance gear coming up
what do purgatus crits actually do? I can understand the void staff having surge for crits
but its just burn/soulfire for purgatus
Not in the beta. When I was stuck in the dropship I exploded myself multiple times at final wound to try to kill my self and it didnāt work
yea i dont mean beta
LMB crits give two stacks I believe
Purgatus crits double the dot stacks
beta was like 29 months ago
I did discover one thing
Do I recall correctly that charged purg crits don't give X2?
they do
For some reason I was allowed to climb the landing gear while I was in the middle of peril exploding
Climb By walking
Youāve done some interesting things
It was my only course of action that didnāt involve leaving the match to escape the dropship floor prison since exploding wasnāt killing me. It was my first completed heresy game I believe so I didnāt want to throw that away
I donāt blame ya! They really rolled out the welcome mat for you in the dropship, lol.
can shredder autopistol just not roll 25% maniac damage or something
been rolling for a while
I just want 200% maniac damage is that so much to ask
use the reroll mod
its a bug all the way back from vermintide where you just instantly explode when you hit critical
happens in this game too
thats entirely not what he was talking about at all
hol up, what blessings would you stick on an antax axe?
brutal momentum is a must
then something like headtaker or the other one that increases power
decimator
yeah, if you want an antax this is a good one
just put brutal momentum on it and it's very good
and reroll the infested for like flak or something
owait i just realised ive already got an antax axe that's somewhat better
jesus im glad i checked before i bought
almost forgot coz i stuck a skin on it then left it in my storage -.-
hmm, while i got you, is the brittleness blessing on trauma staff any good?
first time ive seen melk offer a staff with it
Yeah
sorry, I don't know, I haven't tested it, but it looks good
If itās tier III+
you could put charge speed on second blessing
looks good
Instead of transfer peril
but yes replace transfer peril since I'm not even sure if you can reliably hit weak spots with that
yeah idk how you'd even hit weak spots with the right click lmao
hmm, does blazing spirit on the trauma staff work well as well?
yup
stonks
i havent really used trauma staff's much so theres a couple blessings i havent played with yet
ive got this one ive been sitting on for a few months now, might switch between the 2 trauma staff's depending on the role i want to play?
ahh crap i literally have 0 trauma staff blessings, might break some down and reroll before i use em lmao
gawd damn
some people would add blazing spirit on it or whatever else but I find it kills hordes extremely fast as is
anything more would feel like overkill
while I'm at it, I'll also show off this bad boy I got earlier today
hey guys whats the best blessings yall think for purg staff?? i have warp nexus and flurry
I think most people would consider those among the best
cuz i saw barrage and thought that might be busted on the purg
oh deadass is it the same??
you'd be better off with the higher crit chance from warp nexus, since that lets you apply even more burning
hence more suppression, I would assume
and damage, obviously
death is the best form of crowd control after all
shit goes hard
yea
how do i look st these stats
hadron if you mess this up...

I can feel my brain expanding after reading this sentence
does this matter at all?
i dont think so
base rating is important
end rating has no purpose as far as i can see
I guess the one use it has is if you get an emperor's gift, you can surmise how good it may be, but it's not a good indicator even then
you have to look at all the things on the weapon separately to see how good it is, rating doesn't really tell you that
Rating will tell you an estimate on the tier quality of perks and blessings it has
yeah, but with how there's some utterly worthless blessings in the game, it may be misleading
ain't ruined yet
its in shambles
weeeelll
just slap a warp flurry on it and call it a day
it's still gonna be good
I said tier quality
Not which blessings
yeah, but a bad rank 4 blessing might as well be 0 instead of 60 points
Thatās not the ratingās problem
I guess
it was the perfect base stats 
id keep it
ima see if it can kill a mutant
fatshonk been talking about blessing locks
with 25% maniac
only a matter of time before they change it
have they?
I read that they didn't say anything about it when asked today
nice
also this #general-chat message
At last, we get the metal blindfold
But with extra cloth mask!
I wager there are three levels of blindfold
Blindfold, blindfold + mask, blindfold + mask + goggles lmfao
That would mean 5 penances for psyker added
3 for blindfold 2 for the pants and shirt
Give my psyker a trench coat or similar
I'd totally cosplay as Neil Patrick Harris in Starship Troopers
Trenchcoat can be on my Gun Psyker loadout
still a month away tho
