the morning star lobby is a thing, it has a gen chat
might as well be an lfg, nothing else goes on in there
thats the worst part
What's the average population of a mourningstar? single digits?
nothing goes on in there
anyone who claims to dislike the private match req for troll penances is himself a troll
no one cares if you're trying to find a team there
nah hol up
probably because there are zero reasons to stay in the mourning star anyway
all im saying is
That's a bad take defending a lazy company
they should just make the penances good
so you're not actively sabotaging your team
and not just restrict them to private
Yeah
if your autistic ass can't find friends on your own you can lie in your unmade bed as far as I'm concerned, that's not on fatshark to fix
they said the penances are meant to require u to do not normal stuff
I mean they could just rework them to be something else.
But this is their understanding of rework so
I think any critique is fine.
Or don't hide cosmetics behind a bad IRL restriction. Put the malleus cosmetic somewhere else. The achievement is fine.
But they fucked up their design, and didn't think of a good way to solve it.
that also would be nice
the new ones are the rework, they just left the originals in as a goofy challenge for people to do without letting it disrupt normal play
it's good design
(a bit late, but good)
It really isnt.
No, iut's terrible design. It's a hatchet job.
It's a SOLUTION
not a well designed one
theres never going to be a good way to solve it cuz its supposed to require unconventional gameplay
making them easier just defeats the purpose of these aspirational challenges
the problem was never that there's goofy challenge shit to do, things like that add replayability for the minority that enjoys that kind of thing
the whole penance is piss easy
No worries sparkeads ill protect you
yea and those are the new basic ass challenges
Yeah, exactly. The penance is a joke.
You just have to find a team with no LFG channel
the problem was not properly segregating the playerbase doing that from the playerbase that doesn't care about it
wtf are you talking about
the peance is not easy
the penance is literally
its only easy for you cuz your teammates are doing all the heavy lifting
hmm
Hmmm...
Shield a host or kite an ogryn
you need one person on horde
thats literally what im saying
the penance is not fun either
its ez cuz you aint doing shit just afk dpsing
its just tedious
it just takes ages
Well, yeah... that's... not a challenge
v2 had a lot of great challenges
And there's no other reasonable way to get it, because even if you want to get it mid-game, you're still asking your team to just go do other shit.
i mean
I got it for a rando once, we were hoping to shield a DH, bumped into an Ogryn... and we just waited for the psyker to kite him.
No challenge, just waiting.
Its would have been impossible for Fatshark to change it to 30% brain bursted and leave it in game or something.
not for you
it requires teamwork
its the whole team working together to make it easy
right, it's not a challenge, you just need one or more other people specifically enabling you or it would be too hard for you. 🐒
In that instance we literally had nothing to do
no spawns... nothing to do
just wait
its heresy
u got lucky with no spawns
of course there's nothing to do
I think 9/10 we've had no spawns while getting it, mostly shielding hosts.
last i checked
Maybe ONCE there was a horde that happened to line up with it
I've alwayas done it on DH's, only once that Ogryn
I did it on beast of nurgle.
Ive seen it a couple times
you can also queue a low int for that..
mind you thats probably because the boss went down fastish
Heresy is fairly quiet, especially low int
low int is a snooze fest regardless of diff
true
straight up dislike low int for that reason
the main point is that it requires teamwork
It requires a team who understands what NOT to do, which isn't thrilling.
In game, it is uninteresting
sure in this once instance of this particular penance
maybe I shouldn't quickplay into heresy
I'm sure you can reason with group of randoms you've known for few minutes.
They are very reasonable people
Hey, they let you take off your chest piece now. I just went from prisoner clothes to even less prisoner clothes.
They do?
some people have that bug
Figured as much
if you had the original chest piece you can equip the naked thing bug
idk what the original clothes were
Ah really? This isn't intentional? Boooo
these new penances sound reasonable
Veteran penances are laughable.
ngl they're kinda boring
they're all things you're going to get just by playing well
the old ones were engaging
which is what the penances should be
theyre meant to be the basic penances that shoulda been there at the start
Then again for most of them I meet, they probably are.
but yeah that's the whole point
better than the alternative
Yeah they’re good healthy things to have in the game
free cosmetics yeee
but part of me was hoping for something a bit harder than what we got
my psyker can now look like homeless
that looks like a hobo psyker
Is this the max level one?
i want harder shit
or find a full stack of peaple willing to sleep for a couple mins
holding out for a psychic hood that doesn't look like a toilet
It could always be grindier. Like this crazy thing. Just out of curiosity, how far are people into this thing?
it goes to 1m
Yeah that will be 2 of the "hats"
Jeebuz.
These are the only thing worth bothering.
Blessed by fire penance considers having 100 peril the condition?
no u have to do the explode animation
I hope they let us keep the shirt off. How else am I gonna show off this tattoo and these abs?
thats the animation
ah
I love psyker banter
someone's gonna get fed to the throne real soon
i think grendyl's also the one in charge for sending random people into matches to aggro a dh and leave
Gandalf style 🙂
That's pretty great hehe
my man rockin that superhero cape
hey really dumb question, did they take out all penances rewards, like i got the red and green outfit but now it doesnt even show me that penances where i unlocked it, so do i now have to unlock all the new ones to do the ones i wasnt going to do in the 1st places?
pain
Some penance unlocks are bugged and the old armor ones got moved to a wrongly-labeled "redacted" section at the bottom
Gandalf the Dreg
thank you
which armor is the bugged one?
I have the requirements for the redated penance for the zealots red hood, but it wont unlock. unsure if thats because some requirement was removed
did them with my weeklys 
Is that the max tier head one?
Yep
Ayyyreee sick, could you post a pic of you wearing it?
Wanna see what it looks Like on a character
that's what i meant
Yeah kinda got sweaty lol
get to do the other 3 characters the rest of the week lol
I’m digging most of the psyker stuff
The prison hobo ain’t my style but I respect it
These headpieces and cape tho
yooo new cosmetics fonally?
hop on malice
some achievements need to be heresy+ rip
this is my main fit.
Sick fire axe
mI think the new pants will fit nicely into my collection
guys do we have to make 3 missions without dmg taken in one row?
No
ah i was already worried we must do it in 1 row
so the monstrosum penance is a bit easier to achieve now if beast of nurgle is the boss that spawned
only hurdle now is to have friends
whats the requirement now?
Drip perfected
it's the same, but beast of nurgle has a large weakspot multiplier now
oh and no extra health?
i did it on heresy where I begged my brother to install darktide lmao
lol
it has but i don't feel the extra health on heresy
yeah now i have to buy him coffee
i think i did it on a hi intensity 5 cause my party was like yeah this is a good time ...
but at least its done
while also leveling a newbie below level 10
Moist
Cower before my unparalelled abs
DH also counts for penance if you have ogryn with shield its pretty easy
yeap
but my brother does not play darktide
and the first char we made for him for my penance was a vet
hahaha
but here's hoping he likes darktide
Btw anyone knows if shop-penance cosmetics are account wide? So i make another psyker he gets all the stuff
what blessing do i want for autogun pinning fire and?
afaik cosmetics are account wide i have two psykers and they can equip the same stuff. havent bought anything with aquilas though
cosmetics in general are account wide
Just checked, aquila cosmetics are also account-wide
I dont even work out, just eat clean, and stretch
Brooooo that little bar at the bottom tanked my framerate to 14 by existing 
Peak optimization
which of the new shirts is bugged?
My 200th Elite/Specialist kill with brainburst was also my 2500th enemy killed with Warp Attacks

Get blessed by the bug
😦
So Blessed By Fate (use ability to survive Perils of the Warp) is not get to 100 then clear
its literally go into the "about to explode" animation then clear it with the ability
Pretty easy tbh
I wasnt even aware that you could do that
because going over 100 is a fools game. Just...control your peril lmao
this is the ceiling case of the design
penances teaching you the game mechanics
no its more...going over 100 is for newbies and i knew that was a bad idea from mission zero.
going over 100 is a fools game.
You have your feat for venting though too - sometimes it's really helpful to get something extra out to keep pushing yourself then vent at last moment
in case someone gets pinned before you can quell, that sort of thing
there are also times where it's wasteful not to go over if your shout is available
purg will always let you finish your channel
I hate this sticky keyboard lol, constant double presses
I think the main problem is that you can do stuff like reaching 100 and going down to 97 to do more brain bursts or FS specials
Exploding is actively ignoring lowering your peril by 3%
Absolutely, but that's like standard ops, compared to if shit gets really bad or you don't have the coordination to do the combo since it takes a moment for it to start bleeding off
Even when tryharding with psyker I don't think I managed that
riding that fine line is going to lead to so many newbies just exploding on the regular. more than normal
getting an entire full charge of purg at max peril for WU+nexus purposes for "free" because you have shout available is just good resource management
especially in situations where you're going to shout anyway
I'm about to go and try a heavy-leaning fast warp charge gaining/brain burst/quicken build for fun, I've done similar before but using a few feats I don't usually touch, will be interesting
shouting everywhere
yes
would still rather that one get sent to private match gulag with monstro
but this is an acceptable compromise
I already 100%'d every class prepatch, but damn that's nice
the steam acheivement still says kill 3.
I dunno why those penances have a private match requirement. If you can get it done in a public match, why not?
because they're fucking dumb to inflict on pubbies
and it was a common complaint of having idiots throw games
cause you wouldnt let them do their pennance
because you have the slightest courtesy for strangers, mainly
not something a majority of the 40k playerbase has to worry about of course
so it needs to be mandated like this
this good?
Is it?
its ok imo, i think those are the riht blessings but you want diff perks and you really want tier 4 of both blessings
that sword is designed to crit, so you want maximum crit chance
Dueling sword is mediocre and I really suggest you not try it
upgrade to shred 4 and put crit chance or flak/inf damage for elite
The blessings are ass on a weapon that desperately needs them to be acceptable
without crit the sword doesnt do enough damage
With crit it still doesn't do enough damage
shit on it all you want im just min maxing it for him
Where we were trying to get, surely we're there now
and yeah it does with crit
I will shit on it, it only leads to disappointment
I just want a weapon that isn't shit, my dude
It’s fine to use all the weapons
Ive been using it in hi damn and its DEFINITELY not "shit"
Shit cleave and shit damage on a class that already has much better versions of both outside of these slots
anyone saying its shit is just close minded and not that bright
Before the new FS it was considered one of the better melee
Thank you for the tip, i tested it in meat grinder and yes, crits help alot. need to roll for shred 4 though
It takes two years to do something to a horde and even for bigger stuff you can just use a weapon that is capable of doing something
Insulting me won't change it
i got good roll for FS already, so grinding for other weapon, combat axe and dueling sword etc
"Not that bright" sounds like a petty insult to me because I clowned on your toothpick
not everyone wants a crutch to enjoy playing this game
I don't want a crutch, I want the sword to be much better than it is
lol
after testing meat grinder, i remember how fun the dueling sword dodge distance..... need to get use to it again
It has no headtaker, no BM, rampage requires 3 targets on a weapon that selectively is able to cleave that number, the hitbox has issues and the list goes on
you made your opinion known thanks for the input
now other people are sre talking about how to make it viable thanks
your contribution is finished
This is a public chat, mate
I have been adding quite a bit regarding the weapon
I have used it a lot on my psyker specifically because I didn't want to lean on the illisi 24/7 due to how easy it is to use
sry blocked, pointless to entertain this
Then block me you child
The sword needs to be buffed by the developers, not a turbocope of "it's viable on hi5 if you ignore every single problem it has and the alternatives"
Yeah, no shit something bad is good if you ignore everything bad about it
I'm annoyed Fatshark doesn't give a shit about that weapon
You're talking to yourself
I'm talking in the public chat, whoever wants to read it can read it and those who don't simply don't
Enjoy I guess
Im torn between +flak/+infested perks or +crit chance/crit dmg
havnt decided whats better yet
all the damage on that sword is from crit/weakspot
i can do a roll test on multiple runs
At a minimum run rampage on it to proc it with push attacks
in meat grinder it seem to deal with flak OK at the moment, still need field test
And use the mk5
if manage to roll rampage blessing i will try it out too
i mean you can get 50% crit chance with riposte+shred if you can dodge attacks but Idk how viable/easy that is, baiting dodges
The sword will cleave 3 targets specifically on groaners and push attacks, but fortunately push attacks are very necessary with it, so that gets covered
Also avoid using blessings that require dodges because they're so inconsistent it's just not worth the hassle
rampage is terrible because it never procs
And this is why blocking people who know better is bad practice
test it definitely but you'll see, it's useless basically except against groaners
What is even happening rn
and nobody needs a blessing to handle groaners
It maby prop if using MKV dueling sword cause a lot of slashing combo?
Nah, the problem is the weapon's cleave itself
idk, the mark 2 is the only one with a "vanguard" attack (heavy 2) and it still hardly procs
It regularly hits only 2 enemies due to its minuscule cleave
tell me if it does on the MKV lol DM me
I initially thought it was bugged until people told me groaners and push attacks were the way
Maybe one day I'll like dueling sword but today is not that day didn't like it at the start and don't like it now, it just doesn't feel fun, stats not regarded in that evaluation
Both mk5 and mk4 work the same in regards to that and mk2 just doesn't have a pleasing moveset to me
Better off using shred4 as the crit chance tbh
I think that might be the only acceptable case for riposte because you have infinite dodges, but yeah, shred would've been the better pick
hardon gives whatever she wants
Fair point
Imagine them making these dodge blessings into simply using the dodge move to get the buff
I enjoy spaming lights lol
I hope so too
i'm not sure about the modifiers though, i think its chaos tainted
DS mkv is a good mobility stick, just outclassed by deimos
The finesse bonus is pretty big on the sword, but more can't hurt
Neither make fire great. I ran it for awhile, shred 4 and fire and yes wildfire does make fire spread it doesn't add any damage and psychic communion despite having lower proc chance still triggers more than ab somehow
I think my illisi has 2,25x on crit and headshot
did anyone elses performance tank after the update?
Yeah, the game is rebuilding shaders mid-match
i stutter hard when i brain burst and purg drops frames
Welcome to the party
Give it some time and the shaders should be compiled
glad its not just me
They fucked up shaders, waiting on them to fix it
ya.
ill play a diff game in mean time
The buggy-wuggy
for this patch
Some penances have bugged completion
Nothing to do for a lot of stuff right now besides waiting for a hotfix
Haha, the grin on your Psyker while shirtless and wearing a fishbowl with no glass. You look deranged. 😛
yeah unplayable for me, and havent seen any news from FS about when they are fixing it
lowkey shirtless psyker goes hard af
shoudl i change sth other then sprint?
inspiring isnt neceasry imo but i wouldnt just trash it off that gun
blazing 3 (replace inspiring) or pinning 4 would be better
this is a fucking hideous penance
surge staff it is then
It's not 3 full missions in a row
That’s the spirit
really, the only enemies that can mess that one up would be ragers, everything else tends to be easier to avoid from my experience
you don't need to do anything specific to get that other than play reasonably well
oh actually?
that makes it so much better
i thought it was back to back and i was pissy
yeah it's fine, you'll get it just playing
oh 100%
if it had been a launch tier penance, not only would it have been three in a row, but no one in your team would be allowed to get hit by an elite instead of just the psyker
was there any reason they renamed malleous monstronum?
And be at 100% peril for 75% of the mission
It would've included ranged elites as well. No need to drag the other players into this
I"m sure the hotfix to make the game playable again is coming soon
Next week
Immeasurably complex
That's one thing that was slightly irksome about the Commsplex update, going on a minor rant here. For a company that didn't need an arbitrary premium currency for Vermintide 2, calling the option that gives the perfect amount of Commodorebux to purchase "immeasurably complex" was kinda dumb, and the blurb in the patch calling it "Immeasurably Comms-Plex" was tone-deaf to me
Don't tell me Shillings were an arbitrary premium currency when you could earn them in-game, and you can only straight buy Aquilas with real money
i mean currency is pretty easily measured :^) imma just assume english isn't their native language and its some idiomatic translation
Just charge $20 outright for the featured costumes, $10 for the weapon skin packs, $5 for helmets, and $1 for individual weapon skins. I haven't looked at the Commodore Store since launch, but I'm pretty sure that the pricing should work out fine
it wasn't tone-deaf at all
it was a tongue-in-cheek acknowledgement of the stupidity of the original statement that lead to it being a meme in the community
it was, in fact, the exact opposite of "tone deaf"
Maybe it's just me, but I think in order for that to work, it would have to actually be addressed and rectified. Halo Infinite's Craig comes to mind
iirc the pricing update came after Commsplex
If it didn't, I apologise
regardless bro there is no reason they should have dropped the update in this state
genuinely unacceptable
I'm gonna see how bad these new Heresy Penances are
They aight
The "no Elites hit you with melee" doesn't sound impossible on Heresy with a Deimos to take care of pesky Ragers. Push isn't reliable for staggering them, but Force Swords absolutely will knock them on their ass
You can bash out all the penances in 10 games or less.
all the staves can keep them away
you can also dodge infinitely
With a Power Sword or Dueling Sword*
I don't remember Plague Monks having an attack cooldown of almost zero tho
Dueling sword has a cap of 5, unfortunately
Huh I could have sworn it was infinite
Power Swords are still infinite though, right?
Force Swords
Fuck me -- yes, Force Swords
I'm sorry, I'm a bad 40K nerd
I will exile myself to the If The Emperor Had a Text-to-Speech Device normie tier
Damn you even bought the recolours
I was bored and figured fuck it why not
I bought two recolours, and one was for the tights and the other was the hood with bandana
Noice
Were reachng another golden age of technology
The Mechanicus truly delivers
Melks shop was nice to me with this one. I get why people find autopistol good on Psykers after trying it out. 😅
Should I keep Blazing Away or change it for something else. Felt more squishy than with my Purgatus - Kinetic Barrage build. Maybe I just need to get used to playing autopisol though.
I would usually say save mik bucks for T4's, but Blaze Away is what you ar elooking for for max power
The perks are not great, although it's hard to see autopistol needs perks right now
that may change
can anyone explain what the "mehtuh" for trauma is? i wanna try and roll for shit and i dk what to look for
i can't get a level 4 crit on void so i've decided to try something else
well satisfied with the new cosmetics
Flurry + Rending is the standard build
Harness + Blazin Spirit is a meme build. It works ok, very fun to goof around with, but... not great
Oh great then. I went from no Autopistol to this and I don't play enough to grind for IV blessings.. What perks would you recommend for it?
is there any real reason to go trauma rn?
It doesn't need any right now, it's just over tuned in general. For that specidic one I'd keep stamina and add +maniac for tocrhing mutants EVEN faster, or +flak if that's your taste.
Both perks are just... saving ammo though
And you're aware of the AB + power effect right?
I can't say. It's definitely strong. I am surge first, purg second, trauma third. I don't find trauma as fun, necessarily (blazing + harness was fun), so I'm not best person to ask.
i'm running full damage traits and surgevoid
So Ascendant Blaze gets boosted from the blessing on autopistol?
Yeah. Pinning fire has a 2.5 cooldown, so you can stack it, and burst to keep it up at max.
so AB with your pistol out to evaporate hordes
#pantsfreedarktidewhen
KB + Hunting Grounds = This thing in like one game
Wow nice. I didn't do that when testing it. I did find it harder to keep my toughness up compared to Purgatus - Kinetic Barrage build but that might just be needing to adjust to autopistol playstyle.
What level 1 feat are you using? What build, actually?
I prefer Harvest with gunpsyker, although many just run Quietitude. 111112 or 111133
I tried 131112, but think 131232 might be better though.
Harvest is good if you run communion and flayer
However, 312233 works very well too
Interesting. Even a Kinetic Barrage build.
Talking about flayer I just realized I must've miss clicked it over to wildfire without noticing... I did think flayer didn't proc as much as usual
I prefer AB for the hilarity, but KB works fine
I like KB way too much, I'm having a hard time swapping from it when running purg haha
Yeah, this is what I would do if I were playing it more often, although I always prefer Deflection
Deflection works too of course, but I'm running a low warp res ilisi so getting high peril is very easy
Oh I don't do it for peril, just for being aggressive, although it matters less for gunker
Four strokes and I'm very close to bursting

That is much closer to my Purgatus build and I am used to pop so many heads and gain ton of toughness from quelling
Stroke your swords Psykers but make sure you dont burst all over your teammates zealots hate it especially getting warp stuff all over them is against their religion or something
I love quietude in most builds except gunker that gets the top tier
Battle meditation also procs it during combat which feels great
Yeah Quietude is amazing.
One of the new penances really incentivizes stroking your sword and getting close to the edge without actually bursting though
dumb question - was there a recent update that breaks mods and causes massive framerate issues?
Pretty sure someone already told you the feats to run with gunker earlier with the shreddah when i run it i dont take my damage due to being way more mobile do the half circle strat during combat abuse dodges and empowered blocks whip out the shredder for elites and u have a fast high dmg versatile fighter
Breaks a few mods yes, framerate issue might only be in your first game while shaders render.
Thanks a lot for the feedback on with the shredder. Definitely cleared up some things. Seems like I should try out 111112 and also 312233 if I have a hard time adjusting to not having KB
so quick Q - seeing people post caps of staves with 'harnessing the warp'
but that's not present in my list of blessings at all even as a non-unlocked
oh, mine still says warp nexus
yes they changed it back
oh
how peculiar
oh man also only just now realised there's no such thing as blazing spirit t4 for trauma huh
go to your load order file and comment out
- ui_extension
- NumericUI
- PreviewCosmetics
rerun the mod loader script
will try that
the .bat script
yeah, always need to repatch
ah, are those three currently causing problems?
awesome, thanks for the info
Oh dam isnt ui extension and numeric part of the core mods ?
it's a dependency for the old version
it was, a lot of them have the important bits integrated now
uh oh
if you have a lot of stuff not updated for a while might need to revisit them
guess I have more mods screwing with things
got what feels like a classic hard crash in terms of looping sound and frozen game, thankfully not the whole system though 
for some reason this isnt unlocking despite me having the prerequisites, anyone know a fix?
mmmhhmh
we need the rmb BB to do something else
something that makes me use it not only when there's a zealot Fing into my BB
btw anyone else have black empty portraits when using mods?
I've never worked out if it's something wrong on my end or a known thing
I only ever use it to stop peril from autoquelling
mildly interested in if bm changes feeling of paul
wait a damn minute
i was in ogryn chat
???????
maybe do a big bazong
holy shit the stutter though, hoo boy
any other known culprits?
already commented out the two mentioned before (I don't have preview cosmetics) and updated the rest
FWIW my load order is
Hang on, Don't Stop Me Now is now private match only? I got that one on complete accident
You just need a Psyker with Psykinetic's Aura and/or that Level 15 feat that recharges Bull Rush faster on Elite kill in Coherency
are you on experimental?
the stutter is from the new patch's broken shader caching
how do i build around trauma with firecrit kaboom
just asscendant?
or do i look for something else
yesss
oh no
experimental disables the frames
dont worry too much, fs confirmed a fix is in the works
wonder if next content drop will finally buff the catachans
or if they still think parry is good
you can precharge the BB if you hear an elite coming
Yeah I know that's the intended use, but like... There's very rarely any time for ever doing that
Quite enjoying this new cloak we got
I look like a sniper with clowny pants
this is roughly the reverse of what you want
in particular you want animation_events, settings_extension etc (dependencies for other mods) at the bottom
you can remove ui_extensions entirely, nothing uses it anymore and it's pretty much a deprecated mod
you can also update numeric ui already
source: modding discord
version 1.9.1 from today, it's in Old Files for some reason
ah, nice thanks all ❤️
that's surprising, my intuition was dead wrong there
woohoo! finally
Cheers Hadron
Hah. Well done
How do I access the Experimental Branch? I don't see it in the 'Beta' section on Steam
1.9.1 shows as being from 4.5.23
the most recent I can see on the nexus is 1.11.1 from 4.23.23
is the update up somewhere else?
Is anyone else hearing this horrible BUZZING?
I think it's because of the zap staff.
But I'll use it a few times and then I'm just stuck with this crackling.
new outfits are pretty neat
311112 or 311212
worth taking to roll on maybe? 
thoughts on quicken? @near wyvern
Head pops.
Melk finally delivered Warp Nexus 4

wait I didn't know we could go shirtless as psyker in this
It's because of the new update, they accidentally added a shirtless option to all characters. I hope it stays.
I don't have it D:
Oh, weird. Maybe only some people have it then.
I'm on experimental build, maybe they already patched it
I did have a 10MB patch for it just a few hours ago
It's on the normal build, so idk.
I hope they don't, running around as a shirtless zealot was fun for cosplaying as repentia
this is such a confused look
lol
gotta show the bare chest
if only I could 
you can
what is that hood from
I can't, Antagonist
you can take it off now
huh
old psyker penances
I can take mine off
I'm on experimental build FWIW
and it got a 10MB additional patch a few hours ago, they might've already patched it out on this client
not the only private games one, right?
alright thanks
I look like a dork lmao
how can i pass this up (I already have infernus 4)
yeah definitely
are soulblaze builds good enough for heresy/damnation
Did they nerf the soulblaze/pinning fire combo?
oh yeah i forgot, they buffed other classes lol
thats why im doing less damage comparatively
it all makes sense now
why do u mean? soulblaze is on purgatus, soulblaze is on ascendent blaze, what kind of soulblaze build
sorry i meant the feats
i'd say that wildfire at least isn't too impressive because it won't target enemies that already have 4 or more soulblaze stacks
though the other feats in the lvl25 feat are mediocre so it's whatev unless you gain some significant utility from the other two feats (inner tranq with warp battery or flayer being your only source of non-BB warp charges)
alright thx
Anyone have recommendations for combat blade blessings and perks on Psyker? It's been a ball so far but doesn't feel like it can keep up with pure DPS and crowds vs other options.
the push-attack has 4 cleave at most with a mediocre cleave distribution, so it's going to be very meh against crowds
single-target is the knife's thing
A FREAKING CAPE GUYS
reminds me of mistborn
Hmmmm body was not prepared for a cape.
just bought a 379 and upgraded, i need more plasteel
So Numeric UI got patched, but since UI Extension hasn't been patched, Numeric will still be broke?
ui extension was originally for scoreboard
but it's no longer needed for newer versions of scoreboard
I want me a cape too
and ui extension isn't needed for numericUI
I don't think any mod requires ui extension currently
Oh neat
theres no reason to have stamina on that gun
use it if you got no better but the quell speed is extremly important
oh damn
I got all 3 Psyker Milestone penances all at once
I really like that we have options for outfits now
nice to have a different look to look more rough
@gritty marsh If you really want to use Wildfire, it really needs to be paired with +power from Slaughterer on Force Sword. It's strong, but you have to lean into it, and it's not as good as a standard fire build.
anybody down for 90% penance?
Probably good to ask in Ogryn channel? or LFG
what dump stat on surge staff?
damage
a bit of quell a bit of warp res
just not charge though
I'd say crit depending on how much you use the LMB
the end helmet also adds a nice touch to it . love the new skins. they are not that bulky
Never dump quell . For support dump the damage or crit and for damage (yes this staff can deal rly good dmg to flak/cara) dump the resist
I dumped quell on surge mainly because I use it with quicken for maximum uptime
So have they fixed the stuttering yet? Or are the shaders still fucking everything up
Everyone ive played with was fine after 5 minutes
idk had issues without my mods and back with darkcache mod + rest + lil time it fixed itself
Finished with the new penances
I love how they went from not being completed in five months to being completed in less than a day
mfw emperor gives me the quad tier 4 blessings/perks, but the weapon base is very meh and I already have both blessings 😎
Oh neat, let's see how Hadron will ruin this one
Oh hey this is not too bad actually
Warp Resis is low enough to have demon in it 😂
My teammates were kind enough to let me stay a little longer to work on that 2500 Warp attack kill penance
Yes, should hit the three strokes to burst breakpoint
lol
Also for some reason, Prove Your Worth isn't advancing
Oh hold up I was looking at the wrong class
Never mind it's working fine lol
God damn, can't decide if I should reroll +infested or block
Is there a LFG channel or a channel where I can ask for help with penances?
My last Psyker achieve is the monstrosity one and that requires a private group. :L
i'd prob reroll block eff on the illisi
Vox channel lfg
I don't find myself needing to block with it that much
compared to something like the obscurus at least
@solar ocean i need that one too if you wanna take turns
unless you're somebody who doesn't run kinetic deflection or +stam
I run +stam but not deflection
hmm yeah prob sketch with stam
I get guardbroken very occasionally when I'm caught by ragers at 100% peril
+infested shouldn't matter too much since it's only some zombies and dogs that have it
Yeah, sounds good!
and you probably won't hit the breakpoint I'm thinking of without unstable power
yeah I'm very unlucky with blessing rolls on my illisis haha
if you had a t4 slaught + t4 unstable illisi, a heavy special's minimum weakspot cleave damage can one-shot poxwalkers at sufficiently high peril
though I think i needed to be at 80%-ish peril to do that
executor is alright though if I just aim for the heads during hordes
only caveat is that it resets on weapon swap, block, or special activation
I'd personally keep uncanny
although it's useless against everything except crushers or maulers, there's the stagger increase from rending (if you have >50% rending)
I'm running shredder and kinetic barrage though, so I never use my sword for those
it's literally only a horde clear and peril stick
makes sense with that 19% warp res
yeah, look at this! 3 strokes to 100%
whew
I think I'll keep infested and go +flak
nah nvm, block is better. +infested doesn't change any breakpoints or anything there.
again?
what now
they are ignoring walls when they grab you and will slam you into the ground even against open air, railings or walls
thanks fatshark
walls aren't real
Only 5%?
oh that's normal
Warp resistance 15%?!
it always throw into the wall
no they will pound you even against a wall when they are supposed to just throw
you get 5% power per stack, and you earn a stack at 20/40/60/80% peril thresholds
My brother in the emperor,swap warp resistance and mobility XD
Oh
That's not bad then
blessing tooltips got yet another pass (we know because warp nexus is warp nexus again) and they still haven't fixed it
yeah it's fairly decent
The two passives seem good
Is that the one that swings a few times when charged?
Been awhile since I've been on psyker
warp nexus is the +crit chance% with peril for staffs
It makes you 4% to 16% based
i love 4% to 16%
Y'all think I can damnation with 4 psykers?
of course
sure
Depends on your weapon composition
best comp imo
Ran 4 vets on damnation easily,so psyker could be fun
2 purga, 1 shredder, 1 surge. easy win
Perhaps I'll try it tomorrow
I'm still salty tho from earlier
This weapon isn't staggering soooo
Woot, got my mask! All I need now is for Fatshark to give the hair style that the paid cosmetic npc vendor has and I'd be all set.
did they intend to let us unequip every slot? That's what I've been asking for but it doesn't seem intended
or the torso anyway
what changes here?
ah, cool. probs go full crit. i doubt i hit any flak breakpoints
I don't dislike pub psykers in general but surgers + autopistol gunkers that don't know they have ways to do dmg besides gun and schlurp all the ammo up are on my shitlist
Any player of any class that only uses one of their tools is on my shitlist
true but some are more useful than others at least
Do you realize that shredder power buffs scale with ALL damage (that includes psyker ult)
The shredder pistol is absolutely busted
I'm not saying shredder is bad lmao I'm saying its not great when psykers are blowing their mag on 3 poxwalkers in front of the ogryn
With that being said you shouldnt be mag dumping horde with it
I see these things happen all the time in diff 4 as Im trying to level my other classes... its so painful
or they're trying to kill a sniper across the map with it when they have bb
I think diff4 is actually harder than 5
heresy difficulty is currently bugged
I didnt mean because of the mobs
it feels like they had a bug regression where heresy (unmodified) is a high-intensity difficulty
I meant because the players 😄
Essence Harvest or Warp Absorption for Purgatus?
Are you running communion and blaze?
I'd personally go with quietitude unless you're also going with inner tranq, but absorption otherwise
I feel like this too, recently switched to full-time damnation and it feels so much easier
Everyone is so chill too
But maybe that's because I don't run AB on my purg build haha
lmao its like theyre too scared to do diff5 so the rats hide in diff4
then I have to play diff4 on my 20 something veteran and I experience the perils of the warp
Yeah I tried running some HI t4 earlier to finish my penances but it's like people there think it's a solo experience
This game is actually a horror movie, splitting up is always the worst idea
I've been loving the voice lines the game has given us if someone runs of on their own
"Stay with the squad, sinner!"
The zealot talks to herself "Why'd I run off on my own? Do I want to die?"
So I guess that's one advantage of diff4
"if those kids could read they'd be very upset"
Apparently it's a bug, confirmed on the forums. But it's one of those bugs that don't really have any negative impact on the game, so I hope they either don't fix it, or fix it and give us an official shirtless optio
I also got some guy who asked if he could solo a monstrosity if we got one... on diff 4 high intensity and the condition with extra specialists.
I kinda hope so. I felt like an asshole saying "Uh... it's high intensity with extra specialists... maybe not a good time?"
oh wait I thought I was still in Zealot chat
It would be so lame to "patch" it. Just let people unequip slots and run around in their undies if they want
there are TITS in this game, not that you'd know since you never see those puppies past chargen
what blessings for surge staff are best, and whats dump stat?
Surge has like 3 tier IV blessings
so its preference which 2? what are the 3
Heres the shitty base roll surge I use
Think the other tier 4 blessing is terrifying barrage lol
So these are the two you want
My crit bonus pretty sad
surge doesnt do much dmg anyway, and you dont run anotrher crit chance blessing. Also ya crit bonus i heard once is the dump stat but wasn't sure, so wouldn't that make terrifying barrage good?
if its job is to cc, that helps it to it better?
what about focused channeling?
windows key + shift + s
I don't really get surge staff tbh
what bout it
anyone available to help with psyker private penance?
Is there an ideal perk combo for void staff?
Looks like it does good damage to most types, are there breakpoints to look for?
Nah, transfer peril + warp flurry. You gonna one shot trash anyways with some warp charges and elites take multiple hit to kill even with perks.
If you want to specialise against ranged units take +unarmoured and +flak
But if you really really want to specialise against ranged units you just bring a gun. Infantry Lasguns are superior for clearing ranged units.
Flurry + Nexus is good.
Crits on primary do 2x damage, so don't sleep on the strength of primary for medium range.
Crits on secondary are 2x vs unarmored, and 1 crit + 1 normal hit are enough to take out a rager with no maniac bonuses.
Your crit chance will be 30-40% most of the time, so crits are common.
There's no true dump stat on surge, they're all useful. You just lean into whatever you build it for.
It's fine, and worth getting pinning 4 if you don't have it already (and want to run autopistol until they nerf it)
Replace crit chance perk with anything (maniac, flak top choices), and replace sustained fire... or if you want to collect all the T4 blessings, leave it on until you know you can collect one of those blessings elsewhere.
After pinning 4, your next blessing matters less. (Blaze Away is ideal)
i dont have it, and was gonna try it at some point. Are blessings account wide? can i also craft pinning fire 4 on my vet?
yea
For that weapon type - autopistol (of which there is only one currently)
right, but ok cool
unfortunatly i just realized i cant afford it, maxed my quests this week, and it resets in 18 hours
so, rip
nothing i can do
i really dislike that....should be able to grind more, or buy another quest for diamantine or something
Yeah, that is a bummer, sorry man
You'll undoubtedly bump into it, or pinning 3 - which is plenty strong - again
i have pinning 3 actually so ya, not the worst
i have a meh legendary auto pistol chilling with it i could eat anytime
but this one is a much more useable one out of the box i could use for a bit until i want to eat it bc i crafted a better base
no biggie tho, its a side project weapon 😛
Yeah it's fun to try, but it is a bit of a meme. Fair play to people that love it.
And it's my go to for speeding weeklies on zealot... the no thinking gun
Hey, can someone clarify is the flamer staff applies soulblaze?
yea
Thnx
"dirt nasty"
Illegal
lol
everyones all about the force swords, but the dueling used to be my go-to
before the illy and deimos
wish i had one that good damn, nice
before those two I only used the combat axe mk v
tested run with dueling sword, is good, especially for creating distance melee
This is the way
tried going back to it a while after the new swords though and it's sooooooo slow compared to them haha
So...this turned out...not great.
but if i were to use it for now, would you slap slaughterer on it in place of uncanny or precog?
precog is really bad
Precog is trash
everything's a dump stat if you're brave enough
Oof
lol
i just won a t4 with it pretty easily
while it was purple
hahaah
its still an illy
I finally got Bloodthirsty today
i just dont have another, but agreed its ruined
Now to get blazing spirit 4
i wonder what we are actually getting later this month
hope its a good drop
2h force sword when
or new staff
Also, the only cosmetics worth getting for psyker from the new penances are the metal visor ones
ya i saw bunch seemed kinda trash
yeah but those ones require you to do all of the ones
no it really wasn't, only took me a few hours
And I really wish FartShart had made the cloak a back slot item, instead of a part of a single chest piece
I wish they would find a balance between mind-boggingly annoying not completed in several months and easily done in a day
and yeah, that would be cool
I also really wish every single one of the new chest pieces didn't have the ugly whatever this shit is
it's even showing through the cloak! it's a one piece cosmetic and it's clipping through itself!
Fatshark gaming
Because the new cosmetics are all minimum effort
she is very handsome now though
i want this game to be excellent, i really like it. but if next patch isnt stellar this game ded for sure
this game is excellent if you just ignore all of the parts not involving killing absurd amounts of heretics
I think it's fine. It will be complete in 9 months or so, I suspect
I think they've demonstrated they have a lot in the pipeline
yeah it's very steadily getting better with every patch
and can actually get content out, even if it's stuttery
Nearly finished
That one is easy to complete if you have an illisi with low warp res
Considering swapping to Quicken for this one
Just stroke it until you nearly blow your load and then pinch it with PW
Quicken and Psychic Communion yeh
Or aura and a dog map
Oh yeh why didn't I think of that
Dog maps are awesome for most of the new penances
yeah dude me too
It's cold on Mourningstar for sure - you cut glass with those
Now we need - Swole naked torso cosmetic
Something like this 🙂
is there power cycler for ilissi
warp resistance and transfer peril is power cycler for illis
whats slaughterer
how
just take your shirt off
how
slaughterer is the +power on kill blessing
3 illisi on melk but no rank 4 blessings aaaa
though the power sword also has slaughterer
its just in there this patch for most people
it's the infinite dodges and faster activation + 1st heavy that mitigates the need for a cycler equivalent
illisi is so powerful in base and with slaughterer I barely even activate it
just m1ing the horde
honestly sad that the duelling swords are basically useless and forgotten now
time to give them the laspistol special attack
like saltspyres gun and sword pog
now you reminded me of when the axe and falchion released and how much I want dual weapons in darktide
seems like psyker doesn't have any bad feats
Mind in motion 
and also that yeah
honestly I forget that tier ever existed lol
I always pick block for peril
it's like a vanilla class feature for me now
10% to BB an enemy on any hit with a 15s cooldown
it's pretty much only for maintaining warp charges without BBing
also why is quicken bad? double warp charges + 75% faster cooldown sounds great
requires you to take communion/ascendant blaze or BB a lot
quicken is t6
it doesn't do anything to buff your ult and throws your stacks out the window
I know
fair
I'm saying that you need those feats or to BB for warp charge generation
i mean i alr use communion
you're better off getting the 15% cdr on special/elite kill feat if you wanna spam ult
if you don't already pick those feats, you'll have to go out of your way to accommodate it
also i feel like i'd wanna 331122 if im using purgatus, 331113 if im not
If I were playing premades, I'd pick quicken for certain roles
er, 311113 if not
