gimme me my 1 second charge time trauma
what do you need for it to reliably 1 shot? my poke sometimes doesnt
do you have to be at 6 stacks
do you need 6 stacks?
bc when i go in meat grinder
it always crits and idk why, hard to test
but in a live damnation sometimes it doesnt
honestly not sure if its 4 or 6
ok, ya i notice it when im low stacks
i just wasnt sure if others were doing enough w/o stacks to 1 dhoy
pygex probably has the info on his guide on steam
1 shot
looks like hes doing it in the test area with 4 stacks https://youtu.be/zlUkBoKxY10?t=37
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.
do u have warp unleashed
Heyo
So the Deimos one shot depends on a lot of things:
- Damage roll
- First Target roll
- Finesse roll
- +maniac perk
- Warp Unleashed
- Unstable Power
- Warp Charges
- peril level (WU + unstable)
Those are the main things that have a reliable and direct impact on it. I highly recommend to go to psyk to test what is your peril limit for each warp charge stack for that exact weapon.
probably finesse too
Oh yeah that one as well
(slaughter stacks)
I have 1 shot muties with this multiple times, no Warp Unleashed, I do run Warp Battery and usually have 6 stacks but I don't think I always do. Maybe they got shot a few times before I got the stab, but I can't say for sure. I think they may take extra damage while charging but I'm not sure.
And I think I've done it without slaughterer stacks either.
holy shit i started doing the quell cancel thing on voidstrike and that is very fun
idk how much better it is than just sending semi charged shots with warp flurry
but its fun
yea, using a macro to do it is funny
yeah i can feel the arthiritis developing even more so than usual doing that
ok it seems less effective sadly
its not that good, except at cc. which is why i like using the burn build because then you can do the quell cancel spam for dps :D
upon testing
esp since it knocks things over
how good is at with the burn build?
decent, you ascendant blaze once you get a proc to instantly stack 7-9 stacks of burning depending on whether you take wildfire

anything it hits when you crit gets burn stacks and you spam as much and as fast as possible to get more crits
probably had slaughterer stacks up. they don't take extra damage while charging.
do you prefer wildfire or do you just take the extra damage with WB?
also im assuming your running Warp flurry/blazing spirit
or are you just running burn through feats
no flurry is useless and you want harnessingthe warp for more crit chance
uh i think i run it with wildfire
you could still charge if you want, sometimes you do want the direct damage more
ok so just harnessing/blazing/transfer and then wildfire asecendant
and the idea is to just spam into hordes for CC/DPS and then use ascendent whenever its up
use ascendant only once you already got a burn crit
you can save your f for when you proc a crit burn on elites too, depends on the situatino
ok
im not actually super familiar with how wildfire and whatnot works so ill have to play around with it
Anything worth swapping carapace to?
wild fire is also busted atm
Wildfire is not behaving as the description reads. Enemies are never reaching more than 4 stacks of Soulblaze Experiment. Stand two enemies near eachother. Apply high amount of soulblaze with purgatus staff to one and kill it. 4 Stacks on main target. Spawn another enemy and repeat applying high warpfire and killing No further stacks on ...
oh rip
its fine for blazing spirit builds still
well i could still run it with just ascendant and blazing anyway
its not like purge since you dont get as high stacks to begin with
either way works tho, its sort of like a ranged purgatus style build
if you're doing a blazing spirit build, it does matter
but not normally
uh not as much, im not actually sure how damage distribution works on voidstrike, on trauma blazing spirit makes the entire radius useful rather than just the center
epicentre has 6 cleave max when fully charged, and the outer area does doodoo damage
because youre after the burn more than the direct damage
i got a void with transfer 4 so if i need blast radius for blazing then ill just make the one i made my new regular one
cause its got like 48% radius
it probably matters more than with regular void builds then, how much i couldnt tell you
just got warp flurry 4 on trauma, and i got surge 3 times earlier today, and yesterday i got surge once. should i buy a lotto ticket or something?
yeah i just rolled like 3 voidstrikes and got transfer 4 and flurry 4 out of it
i think ive used all my luck
not on the same staff sadly
but flurry 4/transfer 3 with good perks is still very nice
i mean, hadron currently very generous, many people reported that she raining with t4 blessings.
What qualifies as warp attacks please?
anything with a force sword staff or BB
anything that generates peril
thanks
what staff can rack up the most kills the fastest? I assume on an ambush situation
prob purge
if its just poxes and lesser enemies, trauma can do some damage too
500+ dmg to an unlimited number of targets in the blast area
yeah trauma/purge/void can all do good damage to a horde
if you just need to kill a bunch of enemies with warp attacks
thanks
they can kill regular enemies too ofc but youll get a lot of kills in hordes
they don't take extra damage while charging, most important thing is to hit the head, warp unleashed makes it a lot safer. You can always go into the training grounds to test the thresholds for that one shot
mutants take 3x melee damage regardless of whether they're charging or not
i have a pretty strong build
if you wanna play with fire but not blind your teammates, use trauma with blaze and that crit blesssing
it seems mediocre at first but the more enemies there are the stronger it gets
this is more or less what i've settled on
alternate
the bottom has strong horde clear but the top has a little more versatility and gets stronger the slower your team is at dealing with elites and specials
maniac deimos and crit blaze trauma
it doesnt seem like much at first glance but when the load gets heavy you can keep pulling
wildfire is bugged and doesn't really work
this is the proper build
with this
and this
you only ult on a horde, preferably after a proc with staff but don't hold on to it for too long, you want to get the charges back
obviously use it to save a team mate if you must but then you gotta work some stacks up again
with BB
doz beemos one shot funky shit with just unstable?
i'm lightly considering slaughterer+unstable for those overkill numbers
bug
Takes 4ever to get a Illisi with Blazing spirit 4 blessing :(
I keep getting level 3 on it..
Any tips?
can trauma charge attack crit?
You mean right attack? Yes
i see
Also, psyker has a base 5% crit chance
any recommended perk for trauma?
Dmg against Flak
aight thanks
but the charge right click of trauma can't do a weak spot hit right?
since it's aoe based
I like +unarmoured on trauma to more reliably one-shot dreg bruisers (450 hp) without relying on warp unleashed or warp charges too much
and yeah the right-click can't hit weakspots
both the epicentre and outer area count as explosions
Right. Only primary attack can hit weakspot.
higher base rating=higher chances of T4 blessings, roll 370+
iono bout that one
be great if epicentre hits counted
pray harder to rnjeeezus and consider making a sacrife to the emprah. your first born as sacrifice might work. only one way to find out
What is people opinion on obscurus?
Is it still a good weapon compared to newly releases Illisis and Deimos?
the trauma build I run is the warp flurry one because it just seems far and away the one that can generate the most value
Trauma feels weak when you can't cast 6-10 blue circles in a row
y/n
can't be too terrible
I think you could at the very least get it into a meme build
the armour mods on it aren't that bad except against maniac
can't say I know about the recon lasgun meta though
rapid fire recon is kinda OKAY but not amazing imo, but can at least reliably trigger auto brainpop
VIIa doesn't have many advantages. It does have slightly better cleave.
it is not slightly
it is the only one who pierce poxer and flak
but it is held back by its ammo cost
it is 2 per shot
i hate fake ammo counts
woohoo not hunting grounds anymore
First game in a while on psyker, took a random hit from a poxwalker at the very end, ruining the perfect game 

Sneed to try gunker still
are those stat in games or with mods?
mod, it's called scoreboard
with nexusmod? I heard about it but I wasn't sure if it was safe
yeah, there's always that risk
I just assume that any mod posted in the modding discord or by frequent posters is safe
i mean, don't you hear it before it comes to you
smh no chat block?
I just started playing the game again, i dont have the new hottest mods
smh smh
mmmmh, forgot about this one. How are we suppose to get this
oh really
Also, its not difficulty locked, so it can be done on sedition
push the boss off cliff
yeah, I don't remember any boss caring about the push of any class
barrels and vet nades and ogryn charge will do it
It feels great when Hadron actually gives you something amazing for once
very nice
I dont have thrust 4 on my hammer, but if i did, it would be a one shot
pog
can other hammer 1shot too?
I think its Crucis only, im not too sure about Ironhelm. You'd need to ask the more experienced zealots
You need thrust on it though, thats for sure.
Thrust 3 lets you oneshot if you have 2 slaughterer stacks
yeah i have decent Ironhelm with t4 thrust and headtaker
you can also do it with full squad so if you alone can deal more than 30% at once
you mean a patch?
The important bit is no one should engage the boss until everyone is ready to burst it down, thats why its hard to get in pugs
The timer starts when it takes damage
we got one few days ago
🤔
great, i was scare it started on the spawn of the mob
Oh right that was a few days ago
can't we remove torso cosmetic anymore?
I still have the shirtless cosmetic
welp, I guess i can't enjoy tatoo anymore
One message removed from a suspended account.
Thrust is broken, every tier gives 50%.
Is it every tier of thrust, not just 4?
My hammer is very mediocre
I heard that Wildfire is currently bugged, in what way?
it's either a bug or a shitty description
but Wildfire's description doesn't tell you that it won't target enemies that already have 4 or more soulblaze stacks
so enemies will only gain 4 soulblaze stacks from wildfire proccing at most
Seriously? They fixed the shirtless bug? Hnnnnng.
@orchid shadow yeah, saw that in the patch notes and am disappointed
Goddamn illisi is stupid good
I’m using a profane one and I’m holding my own on heresy
That’s ridiculous
It's the description, they only went in detail in the patch notes.
"(NEW) Wildfire: If an enemy dies while affected by Soulblaze that you’ve applied, up to 4 of their Soulblaze stacks are spread between nearby enemies. The total amount of Soulblaze stacks on the new enemy cannot exceed the stacks of the dying enemy."
no more public indecency
they are as the god emperor made them
we ought to behold them in their full unclothed glory
They should monetize off the bug by releasing shirtless/tasteful tank top cashshop cloths. 
cool hotfix
Why can you get tattoos all over the body and only barely show your arms
@static agate
Someday, FartShart is going to learn to test their "fixes" before hitting that release button
Not today, but surely someday.
why is FartShart so afraid of Wildfire being good?
it's competing with 6 stacks of warp charge and a free BB every 15 seconds
well they kinda needed to rush the fix with the shader shitshow
"testing isn't as important as rushing a fix out the door" - said no professional software engineer ever
nor anybody that takes pride in their code.
that's grounds for a process review, in my book
how hard is it to just put the right string in the right file?
spend more effort pushing these patches as fast as possible than it'd take to just fucking double check yourselves
jesus the incompetence.
its really sad to see them do so ass
Can anyone explain to me how Bloodthirsty works on Illisi special attack?
You take a special swing, if you get a kill your next connecting attack within 5 seconds is a crit.
trolololololol
I know it would be a meme sword, but what other Blessing would make Bloodthirsty-Illisi somewhat viable?
@primal fjord if you dont have ANY slaughterer... bloodthursty could be fine with anything
especially with that high peril resist you could almost special-heavy, special, heavy, special heavy over and over
problerm with Spirit soulfire spreading, is you kill most things instead of DoTing it
but its fine, its the best sword to use it now anyway since its such a great cleave
anybody wanna do private and get head honcho penance? you help me i help you
I have Slaughter 4, was thinking of putting Blazing Spirit 3/4 for a meme sword. Since I already have a really good Illisi with Slaughter 4/Uncanny Strike 3.
should i change Elite damage to Crit damage/chance or Unarmored damage?
This goddamn penance. I have to actively play badly to get it
i just charged illsi to max peril every once in a while and then cancelled it when i had a free moment
its weird tho
It's not really playing badly, it's often more efficient to do a full channel at max peril and then ulting, if you don't have flurry stacks to care about
If you use the ult for venting anyway
change the weapon
since I regularly use ult to vent in heated situations, I got that one without any extra effort
Im aware this isnt amazing - not t4 rending. But i dont have a good one, how is it as far as base stats go? charge rate too low? I just dont have a good trauma at all to use, wondering if i reroll runNgun and a perk, its decent right?
you really want charge rate as high as you can get it
damn
as well as damage
@safe crystal I swapped IT for WU and AB to Quicken and got it in a couple of missions with Voidatrike
people say dmg isnt important on trauma
why would damage be dump stat?
u can farm it with quicken really easily
if you're only using trauma to knock things around, you're just hurting the team
bc it doesnt do a lot of dmg anyway and it doesnt make a difference much for breakpoints, apparently
been parroted here over and over
"dmg is dump stat for trauma"
well I dislike trauma anyways
my suggestion would be to use a different staff entirely
ooof
but im a purg lover atm
purg + deimos is my go-to right now
its a fun weapon and can be good it does quite a lot of dmg to carapace with brittlenes
I main surge+illisi
most consider it the 2nd best staff on high tier 5
"most"?
i hear it a lot
I'd love to see the poll on that
purg + trauma only staffs with no target limit
@long wharf really depends on play style I'm also not a big fan but I have seen it be very effective
for cc and dmg
its not really a dump stat but u can afford to have it in 60-70 range as long as you hit whatever breakpoints u need with warp unleashed
for me purg > trauma = surge >void
@crude cape maybe, but that's not how you use it
i always thought it was unlimited but people here in recent discussions (the past week or so) have INSISTED it has a target limit
it sounds more like you saying "I hear" when you mean "I'm making up"
no
i have had like
a dozen people in here
say these things
as if it is meta fact
@crude cape nope, it's my main and it chews through heretics
and read it over and over
void has no target limit
nor distance limit
the AoE is woefully limited in radius, though
and damage
@long wharf and no damage fall off
also correct
i always when i used to use it thought it cleaved in a line too
void is only beat out by BB for getting those targets waaaaaay far away
no other staff can wipe out an oncoming horde before they get anywhere near the team
the damage is ... decent, not great
It just passes through hordes killing everything
on damnation, you have to fully charge to reliably one-shot hordes
@long wharf that's what flurry 4 is for
but that doesn't change the fact that void charged shots stagger everything
which includes the AoE
well, everything except mutie
this guy. Not the only time him (and im pretty sure others agreed, ive seen it discussed at least 3 times) claim it has a "6 cleave limit"
this guy saying it stops at first elite
again, 6 cleave limit on epicenter, whatever that means
ive seen it said a bunch recently
so, made me unsure
especially when you have transfer peril
this thing still feels like trash to me when i play it compared to all the other staffs even compared to gunker
ye i aim slightly above their head maybe forehead
im aware of how transfer peril works
but do you see how many people i quoted in here insisting void has a 6 cleave limit?
whats up with that
it made me unsure, bc i used to also think it was infinite cleave in a line
i found 3 quotes from like, the last couple weeks lol
the projectile itself doesn't have an "epicenter"
3 quotes is hardly the dozen you said earlier
there is an initial explosion though, then it goes in a line with a smaller radius - maybe thats why he means?
only shoots through 6 poxwalkers etc
that was just recently, if i take the whole history of the game been out for 6 months, reddit, other sources/discussions, i've heard it said a bunch, dozen isn't inaccurate
you have a video showing this?
but i also always thought it was infinite too, so it confused me
because that doesn't explain how entire hordes die when I shoot them
i havent used it in a while, but it was my most used staff for a good bit, and i agree, i felt like whole columns of hordes die when i shot it
cleaved in a straight line
but lots of people insist its a 6 limit
i can make a video but u can test it really easily in meatgrinder
I don't feel the need to test it against my personal experience
Just gimme a sec, lemme get a video for you. It has a 6 max cleave on full charge, and cannot be increased by any means.
so what are we seeing when we shoot into a huge horde and a big line dies?
is it only 6, and its deceptive?
is there an AOE property, thats killing more than 6 guys around each "impact"
Staff used in testing
killer counter showed i killed 8
the aoe does damage yes
You can cleave more than 6 groaners
is there maybe a maximum distance the projectile goes once it starts hitting enemies?
i think its that each target it impacts, explodes in an aoe, hits next one, explodes. So its killing more than 6 total, with the collateral around each target. But its only going through 6 targets deep. Its probably deceptive bc the explosion clears a few guys, makes a space, travels hits the next, which extends the 'distance' and why it clears bigger numbers.
so it does kill way more than 6 shooting into a horde, but will only cleave through 6 units, exploding in an aoe on each
Nah, the ball keeps going at full charge if it hits less than 6 enemies until it hits a wall. This is easy to spot on maps like Throneside bridge lowering event, but i dont have a video for this atm
https://streamable.com/wyp4m8 with groaners but still close to each other
arent those poxwalkers
yeah, those are groaners
groaners have 0.75 mass
ah yes of course, how could i forget
just look at them and know their mass, duh
lmao
😛
those look like poxwalkers to me
ye just checked according to the spawner mod those are poxwalkers but i cant seem to find the groaners or im blind
new infected or whatever
theyre called newly infected
ah ok
u should get 8 with groaners
would taking shred iv over uncanny strike iv on a deimos be ideal
6 with poxwalkers
should i space them more or do them close again?
wait, so the warp attack is being limited by the mass of what it hits?
it's the same for all cleaving
god, that's hot garbage
newly infected https://streamable.com/k227lq
but I guess right now it's only voidstrike in terms of warp attacks
anyone? just looking for a lil feedback
uncanny strike is better
ok 👍 appreciate it, my friend
yea 8 vs groaners
ye in the poxwalker one it killed 6 while in the groaner one it got 8 dunno how the aoe counts tho maybe its jsut to the side or even just a displacement
this... is truly distressing to learn
but explains why it feels bad to use on Damnation
the aoe does garbage damage
its like 20 or some shit
if u stack a ton in one spot then hit em (with healthbars on) u can probably see it
Maniacs or Flak Armor for Illisi perk?
oh ye it did barely scratched them https://streamable.com/62ziwf
basically knocks them around like trauma would but does 10% of the damage
i think i got 1 with aoe dmg tho
since i just got 9
or i accidentally hit it after spawning to test if hp bar worked
gun psyker with the shredder pistol makes me very sad
shredder is busted
I look like a nerd with a poor cosplay suit
just in time for warhammerfest
it's so nice for FartShart to take the shoulder pad off a premium cosmetic and slap it on the wrist of a free one
all of the new cosmetics are jumbled up pieces of existing content
Void has a bit irregular behaviour, sometimes it cleaves well sometimes it stops for some reason, in any case you you hit carapace or a bulwark shield that's a hard stop.
first match getting over 100 in every category, woo
Which is better?
right
again, right
kind of a wash
maniacs doesn't do anything really on void and you can put flak on the left one
and the left one can get t4 flurry which is preferable to t4 transfer peril
You say woo now but after you have done it enough times you start asking "why do I have to do everything by myself again" 😅
nah, I like carrying sometimes
4 psyker is awesome
4 good psyker players is fun
had 1 round with 4 psyker everyone had a different weapon
trauma, purge, surge and gun was probably the easiest damn+ ive played
wasn't new patch supposed to remove shirtless bug?
they reverted it cuz of slenderyn
nice
They replaced it with zealot T2 chest for ALL classes, which didn't really fit the Ogryns so they reverted it back to no shirt for now
So either they are completely incompetent or they wanted to test the reaction for no shirt gone.
My money is on obese megalodon being incompetent and not testing if their fixes actually work.
so if you had it equipped with Psyker, would it have just replaced it with the zealot cosmetic or is it treated like the ogryn beta helmet where it'd still be bugged?
I kinda want the next fix to be ogryn T2 for all other classes
Zealot cosmetic, someone posted a pic for that and it was dope, hold on
fuckin sick
Fattosharko will ignore the entire playerbase and remove the SWOLE GAINS WHEY MUSCLE MASS top
still, prefer my shirtlessness. it's the only way I can show off these eyes on my shoulders
<insert "eyes up here" joke>
Yes, shirtless is bootiful on ogryns
My boi Zug-Zug
All that detail hiding behind the shirt
Like how the skin folds around the stomach area and everything. 5/5
5/7
I pity the artists and visual team cause they made everything so cool and pretty but the game balance and design team is sinking their beautifully crafted ship by purposefully ramming it against the rocks.
you can only say "or they're testing community acceptance for potential feature" so many times
no studio breaks things as a way to test community acceptance
completely this; the incompetent management and devs at FatShark don't deserve their artists at all
iLvl wise I think this is the highest thing I've ever just rolled
shame on those blessings, though
through consecration, that is
you don't want either one
ye
unless you want to play memelord with blazing spirit
you do realize that we can tell you aren't rolling that today, right?
Warp Nexus isn't called Warp Nexus any more
I'm literally looking at it right now
did you pirate your game and thus can't update it?
wtf, did they revert the Warp Nexus name change then?
yes
idk but it's there
it got reverted with the new patch last week
well alrighty then
Vindication
I haven't got the chance to use it yet, but when you rebless something, does it consume the blessing?
Smh
so I have it forever? cool
"earn blessing" strips it off the weapon and destroys the weapon
Right right
I just wanted to know if I had to keep duplicates around to get more or something once I used them
nah
which wouldn't make sense since you can't stockpile them
Darktide (Nightmare mode): Earn blessings gives you charges that are used up as you re-bless
once you unlock a blessing, it's yours to put on whatever you want
but knowing how FatShark has been handling the crafting system...
it's not a crafting system so much as an advanced slot machine
true lol
the only way we could get more upset at it is if upgrading a weapon required premium currency
uuf
5 Aquilas to add a blessing of your choice
inb4 red weapons will drop and require premium currency to upgrade to
wasnt it leaked that the perk rerolling thing wa supposed to get more expensive with every roll? that wouldve been bad aswell
not leaked, they said that they initially had it increase pre reroll, but then decided to change it
what they should do is make changing the perk cost increase, but we get to pick what goes there
same with blessing
stop making us gamble, give us agency, damnit
i would be fine with the gamble if the locks were gone tbh i like grinding tho
I don't mind grinding when it leads to the results I desire
grinding just to pull the slot machine lever again upsets me
makes me not want to keep playing
There is agency in pulling on a slot machine though, just saying. Lol
blast dmg does jack shit dmg
yOu"lL gEt iT eVeNtUaLlY
Yeah lmao
ikr?
god that upsets me
Or maybe "but the gameplay is so good!"
all this time I thought void was killing whole chunks of horde at a time
Question: is "Shoot Fast" all in one mission?
on a shock troop, I imagine it's possible
Like, 25 of those enemies in one run to complete? Or is it 25 total brainburst kills?
no, just total
25 total
Is that the BB on specialists one?
which I imagine you could do on a high intensity shock troop heresy
Pick aura and kinetic barrage and join a dog game
It's BB 25 hounds, trappers, etc. before they can hit an ally.
really really
25 in one run would be fun gatekeeping though, I imagine that's realistic in hi 5/shock and not much else
I did all the new psyker penances in one night
same
took me two sessions to do all the zealot ones
I imagine I'll get the vet ones done in one night
Did all the vet ones in 3 runs
we went from "some of these will never ever happen in normal gameplay" to "these will immediately and unavoidably happen in normal gameplay"
probably take me a few months to get the Ogryn ones, because I hate playing Ogryn
Worst vet one is honestly the headshots, if you're not running a rapid-fire weapon.
and would rather play something other than Darktide than play Ogryn
The hardest one was the "kill enemies with warp attacks" one
Had to drop my gun to do that in a reasonable amount of time
by "hard" you mean "I killed hordes with void and snored through it"
purg go brr
as long as nobody is helping you kill while you're purging, that works
is deflector blessing still the best for the force sword
I more or less one trick purg these days and finished it immediately
killstreak mod makes egts me going everytime getting 130 killstreak during wave feels just too good
for not getting shot? yes
for doing damage? no, slaughterer is
Never was with slaughterer in the pool
t2 blessing on 380
strip unstable power off
sick system fatshark
and get you an Illisi fsword
Illisi?
there are 3 kinds of force sword and the one in your screenshot is the pointless one unfortunately
CRAP
Lol
lmao
Why
dont worry bout it
Fair enough
three kinds? how can you tell which kind it is
or is it just perk / blessing based
oh i see
you can tell by the words on your screen
aight shredder autopistol kind of feels like cheating
i finally caved and farmed for a good one and all i have is pinning fire 3 on a good roll and its just
damn
i have a hunch pinning fire could use some tweaking
@long wharf pox puppies do work for the BB before disable though
@abstract veldt I wouldn't say Obscurus is pointless, it's pretty versatile, but Illisi has much better horde clear and Deimos can 1-shot a lot of specials with it's heavy stab and still does decent in a horde.
i mean its a weapon you can run on 3 of 4 chars as a top tier which makes it nerf worthy imo
@long wharf I'm pretty sure because I got it fairly quick running hound missions
i see
Interesting
the obscurus description is really vague
it doesnt feel particularly bad though i dont think
Obscurus isnt bad its just worse than the other 2
@abstract veldt it's not that it's bad, I ran it exclusively before the tools of war patch added Illisi and Deimos and still ran it for a bit after but have switched to Deimos now since it can often 1-shot muties
I ran almost exclusively obscurus before we got illsi and demois
I find zero reason to do so now
I ran dueling sword before we got illsi and deimos
And yeah
Theres no reason to use that either
I maintain obscurus shouuld have innate deflector
but then again all that really does is free up a blessing you'd use to bring its damage up to either illsi or demios
Without the cleave of illisi
or the single target of demi
Illisi my fav weapon but it could probably use a small nerf
2 questons
1
Illi: deflector vs unstable power
2: Trauma feels really peril hungry, what can i do ab out it? Only take warp resistance talent?
Unstable is technically better cause you can just slide into shooters and whatnot
warp resist talent with warp battery
But if you like deflector its good
I have 2 illsi's one with slaughter and unstable, one with slaughter deflector, I almost always use deflector
the added damage unstable brings is overkill in most situations unless your repeatedly charging it to bat at specials
deflector is way more useful imo
I do tend to play at high peril
So the unstable gets a lot of use on specials
With illisi
unstable is good, especialy considering you can use alt fire really fast to build it
Potential god roll?
holy fuck
Oh my
and the low warp res
which perk i want to change
the only time you want a low roll
That's not low warp res
Do you have something to put in the second blessing
well not crazy low no
Deflector
Or can you get bricked
no you have ful control
This is low warp res
damn son
Hadron ruined it though
was guna say
o7
What the actual fuck
Do you just expldoe upon using special lmao
theres a reason i dont see blessings 
Three rubs to 100%
If I put soulblaze on a enemy, but it dies from someone shooting it with a gun, do I still get 15% toughness regen from Warp absorption?
:<
of course not
the person who killed it gets toughness
why did you lock executor?
probably other option was even worse
oh true
I can't remember what the other blessing was
Other one was prob blazing or something
But it was worse
right idk why I asked that lol
Executor can be active for a bit during hordes so it's not completely bricked
deflector on that thing would have been really nice
nah thats still a really good one
the ones I use
i use this one
i just realized i have infested on that
ive been using this for months
I still haven't gotten slaughterer 4
I must've upgraded a billion illisis by now
and technically something that isnt carapace
and my demi. Ive been really lucky with my psyker rolls
my vet on the otherhand, consistently gets tier 2 blessings when I roll oranage lmao
Hehehheeee didn't update the naming in Atheneum cause I suspected this might happen 😂 Pygex 1, Fatshark 0
i have a quandary
13% warp res sword for damage
80% warp res sword for the 9 stamina block efficiency meme build
i want both
but im addicted to gunker and cant build peril without a low res sword ;-;
Bloodthirsty and carapace kinda sus
could be a bad omen
grab bloodthirsty and put it on a blazing spirit meme illisi
or upgrade to purple and hope you can swap out carapace
The perils of the warp penance, that's referring to when you save yourself from exploding from peril?
8% melee crit damage
is what i rolled for 2nd perk
and yes, i think, your character has to be freaking out then you ult for it to count
I haven't used the Trauma staff since I first started leveling Psyker, which one of these two staffs should I use?
They're pretty similar, but I'm not too sure what to prioritize in terms of stats and perks
left and try to get shockwave on it as the second blessing
charge rate is pretty important
although the one on the right isnt too bad
you have good perks on that one
I could throw plasteel into the left one to try and get shockwave since it's already got warp flurry and 20% to maniacs, but I'm not sure if it'd be a better use of resources
I'm guessing the lower damage doesn't matter for breakpoints?
me who hasn't touched heresy at level 17+ on all chars vs my buddy doing heresy at level 7
theres triple modifiers?
Finally got transfer peril 4 for the Voistrike. Basically no Peril generation against hordes at head height
nice bowling staff
grats! still hunting for it myself
want to know if i can double puddle something or if its just for the bolts
afaik its not from a quick search of discord
bolts only i've been told
It works on the voidstrike charged shot, so probably on the trauma
is pysker the meta now? or is it still comparatively weak?
I don't know about meta, but psyker is in a good place right now
It's very strong. Builds are specialised, is all.
Speaking of which: Purgatus staff: Unarmoured, Flak, or Infested damage? I already have Maniac locked in.
Still something of a glass cannon though, obviously doesn't have the resiliance of the others
Yeah. Only thing they have going for them that was is the ability to advance with a Deflector sword on ranged enemies.
Gotta be on point with that dodging
Deflector plus surge is such a menace to ranged tbf
Yeah I stopped putting it on swords a while ago now...
My builds rarely melee unless I'm using deflector or desperate... so I keep it. 😛
Lets me move up into staff range.
Or into cover.
i use gun a lot, and getting toughness beack using laspistol is a pretty nice replacement
It's glorious! And it's the only build that can stun a muty.
Las pistol + dueling sword for the commissar experience
well surge in general can stun the mutie
I run flak personally
But unarmored is good too
Okay lads, Hadron bout to ruin my whole life...
I keep coming back to a different dueling sword and say "this is the good one" and then later I change my mind, which one do you use?
The thrusting heavy one
witht he bird hilt?
Okay could be worse so far
But idk if the others are good/bad
But the thrust diagonal slash one is good too
Bro what
one of the duelling swords has a bird aat the base of the guard
Precog 3...not great but not awful yet
i think its the one you mentioned
A bird?
yeah
But honestly all of them are good, havnt found a mk to be superior to another for me
see the little bird head?
Yeah yeah that's cute
I like the ribbon style more tho,
I also like the emperor protects engraved on it
that engraving looks sick!
Noticed it one day while blocking lol
and also its the only melee weapon i like putting the rossette on
Im always inspecting my weapons inthe elevator, i think i saw it then
so not worth keeping the blessing?
Yeah on trauma its useless
i swear melk does this to taunt me
second time rampage 4 has come up for the devils claw and i dont have enough for it
Rip
Melk usually doesnt give me anything good on psyker
Have 10k melk bucks because of it
He did give me a very good axe on vet tho
to bad about the head taker, but its a nice axe, should work well even with that blessing instead of decimator
Looking for help with the Head Honcho penance
I also need that and a couple others
We want to put together a Heracy private game?
Maybe we'll get lucky and get two monstrosities 😛
I'm down in "Strike Team 3" voice channel
can i burn the staff and move it to a voidstike?
Yeah headtaker is unfort but tbh it still destroys everything
Yeah it works on void but still isnt that great
If you wanna just play around with it tho it works
probably not
just wanted to make sure i could put the blessing on a different staff type if i burn
ah
yeah our current staffs all belong to different families
@rapid bear https://steamcommunity.com/id/tjoma96
might hold it then in case it gets buffed
Yay! Shirtless is back on the menu!
rolled a new trauma and got rending 3 though
Thats good
mark 2 or mark 5
right now its 5
mark 2 if u go rending/shred; mark 5 if you go with dodge blessings (riposte/precog)
or mark 5 with riposte/shred
mark 5 has better dodge thats why I say that
and mark 2 has better quick attack patterns to spam shred/uncanny stacks
Idk about mark 4
Mk 5 with uncanny isnt too bad either
ya im just saying optimal IMO
4 - the red one- is pretty dope
I run uncanny/rampage with it and it does decently well
rampage is pointless IME
Ive only gotten it to proc on groaners
or by jumping in the air and hoping to proc it intentionally
none of them proc rampage
shred is decent
so its just unusuable
(cause why would you need help killing groaners)
I mean if groaners are mixed in a hoard but thats uncommon
Oh really
precog may be good on them but idk
yeah try it again see how often it procs
I didnt even realize it didnt work tbh
it rarely ever procs, like never
well message me if you see it proc
tell me how lol
Uncanny probably doing all the work
yeah
Esp since i have mk4
ddamn
Er tier 4 i mean
I am still trying to find tier 4 slaughterer
on what weapon
SAME
For my illisi
ahh
also same
I have 3
I got it lucky but I dont use illisi
tho all force swords share blessings
Yeah makes it easier
Im playing trauma/shredder neiether of which have problems with hoard clear
and its still not found!
its getting rediculous how many other weapons i could have level up by now
lol
Illisi trauma has been one of my favorites
do a different build then
love me some slaughterer
And a trauma mood
Yeah slaughterer def needs tuning
i think its more that the other stuff should be actually viable
Mk 3 already just lets me light spam into hordes with illisi
I agree a lot of things need to be made better but i think some of the really top end stuff needs a little changing
Vets with auto pistol kinda nullify even damnation rn
Smart
I was trying exorcist cause I always blow myself up but I just need to get used to not going overboard
Trauma is good at putting you over
I really have a problem with shooters tho
in pub damnation matches
they ruin matches
even if I have vets on the team
I need a really good solution
Yeah trauma you just have to bb them or pick them off with LMB
Or just slide into them
If you can
I was considering going unarmoured/flak bonus on a staff just to LMB easier
Yeah thats what i do
Ill have to make a new one
Voidstrike can pick them out from behind cover if you slide the shot just over them
Also, really down with the new cosmetics.
Yeah void is my go to on more range heavy maps
New cosmetics are great
The new headpieces look good with the old penance gear as well as the new cape
I had a Veteran tell me that he hates me because the cape makes me look like a sniper, and the Lasgun doesn't help
is transfer peril or warp flurry better for trauma
I don't play psyker so I gotta ask. Is there any benefit to using a gun over a staff?
Can you even do Weak Spot damage with a Trauma staff?
Flurry
Transfer doesn't really work
I like playing Gun Psyker on occasion because I feel that with the Warp Unleashed buff and passive quell buff, I can handle my own for quite a bit
I will run a Voidstrike staff if I see two Bolters or Flamers on the team though
And if there are no Flamers or Ogryns, Purgatus
Haven't really found much use in Surge Staff and Trauma Staff
If Fatshark ever gives us a Beam Staff, I'm using the hell out of it
Shredder is an excellent pick for a Gun Psyker build
I'm the Lasgun enjoyer personally. It helps me pick off regular shooter enemies
I don't trust Veterans to take care of shooters while I focus Elites lol
I dont personally thing that we have to be good at everything
Ideally, yes, but your teammates' weapons can betray their playstyle
If Veteran is running Bolter, they're definitely prioritising Elites and Specialists, Ogryns especially
More power to them, but Psyker is practically tailor-made to deal with Bulwarks and Crushers
Ideally Bolter players should build their stacks by going after Shooters
and not 2 round bursting everything
Thankfully people are getting better
When I play Veteran, I try to pick off one Reaper in between shooters, and during arenas, I let my teammates do all the melee while I look out for shooters and Specialists
Anyone in a data interrogator sequence knows the benefits of having a Veteran who actually prioritises shooters
I'd love to use Bolter on my Zealot, but I don't think it's worth using at all on my Veteran
Yeah i always liked bolter for being able to easily pick off anything from long range in a shot or 2
Plus it CCs whatever it doesnt kill
Mag dumping it can clear a room obviously but i never got the playstyle of just taking it out to dump into a bulwark or crusher and going back to melee
worth it?
for Slaughterer 4 alone, yes
my current one
finally, FINALLY, I got a good Voidstrike to try out
with the option of level 4 Transfer if I can find it
transfer peril is os broken on the voidstrike
i love it
with quiet tide its just chef's kiss
its darktide not quiet tide
wondering whether to use Warp Unleashed for more damage or Inner Tranquility for more casts
I feel like WU is the appropriate option in that case so I can one-shot key targets with BBs. That's the biggest frustration I've had with IT on Trauma Staff
do you full-charge shot with TP Voidstrike before building five stacks of Flurry?
was that a joke?
imo- this is the best combination for the void staff, you shoot gaint energy balls for as long as you have enemies to shoot them at. and with quietide you get toughness too.
yea warp unleashed letting u 1 shot ragers and bursters and flamers etc is really good
Just finished all the new penance.
I finished all the penance but haven't picked a book.
what absolute lunatic does penances without plasteel+diamantine rerolls?
anyone still play vt2? Think its worth picking up + dlc to mess around with? Love darktide but thought that could be fun while wait for patch, is sienna as fun as psyker?
