shitting on crushers = good
#psyker-class
lunar hollow
spice veldt
mediocre
wanton sandal
rending is quite nice on crushers yeah
wanton sandal
maybe on maulers too but those are rarely an issur
obtuse moth
its good for teammate buffing. it doesnt buff personal damage but its fine for utility. the second non Warp Flurry slot is pretty flexible. if you do need to also melee the packs of crushers in between blasts it'll help too.
i change it around depending on mood and situation
jade geode
lunar hollow
the mgxii vet shooting his lil heart out cuz i gave him the power to actually do damage to crushers is heartwarming
jade geode
So how would Ya'll reroll this? Keeping Flurry I'm assuming.
wanton sandal
idk how useful crit is, but as an intermediate blessing I rock it
jade geode
Is Transfer Peril useful at all? It doesn't seem to proc on secondary like I hoped it would :/
spice veldt
I'd change +specialist into +unarmoured for reliably one-shotting dreg bruisers (450 hp) since I don't manage my warp charges
unfortunately not
it's pretty safe to just reroll transfer peril into rending
obtuse moth
id change specialists to maniacs, but unarmored is fine too
sick solar
So Warp Flurry on the Surge? Or what is the best in class blessings and perks?
obtuse moth
transfer peril is situationally useful if you want to rapid quell fire left click at long ranges
jade geode
it's pretty safe to just reroll transfer peril into rending
That's kinda what I was thinkin, but it just feels so weird to roll over a T4 blessing, especially one I haven't logged yet, but I don't wanna trash the staff either DX
obtuse moth
that said i prefer focused channeling a lot more for slide right clicks or just personal safety
spice veldt
maybe other trauma variants will be able to headshot, but not this one
I also have no idea how they're going to balance headshot quelling for an explosion weapon
so presumably it's just going to really only work on the LMB
jade geode
I also have no idea how they're going to balance headshot quelling for an explos...
I mean... it works on the Voidstrike XD
And it's BONKERS
obtuse moth
i mean, void is also an explosion weapon
spice veldt
though voidstrike's epicentre has a sneaky 6 cleave limit
the epicentre doesn't count as an explosion
obtuse moth
it just doesnt proc on the explosion, only the central projectile
you could apply a similar logic to trauma
spice veldt
trauma's epicentre does count as an explosion
hence the reason why you can even one-shot poxbursters at minimal charge
jade geode
True but... a 6 cleave limit wouldn't be much different from Trauma. I mean, how often do you have 6 or more enemies in the epicenter?
obtuse moth
if you wanted to code the staff as a projectile sent downards from above that triggers an explosion around it, it would work
spice veldt
6 cleave does not necessarily mean 6 enemies
Crushers, for example, have more than 6 hitmass
obtuse moth
True but... a 6 cleave limit wouldn't be much different from Trauma. I mean, how...
a LOT, whenever you get massive horde densities, instant spawns and especially horde waterfalls
spice veldt
and there's the fact that carapace has the property of stopping all finite cleave
jade geode
Anywho, alright.
Keep Flurry and Flak, reroll Transfer to something else (probably Rending) and reroll Specialists to either Unarmored or Maniacs. Pretty much what I was thinking.
lunar hollow
in any big horde (esp on t5) you're gonna have way more than 6 enemies in an epicentre
obtuse moth
both arc and i prefer focused channeling over rending shockwave fwiw
makes you immune to hitstun, esp while moving
spice veldt
only pick it if you're going to play aggressively into ranged enemies (sprint-sliding)
obtuse moth
it can work fine if you're getting overwhelmed in close quarters as well
it means if you get hit you don't get punished twice since you can still make space after taking the hit
jade geode
in any big horde (esp on t5) you're gonna have way more than 6 enemies in an epi...
Really? I guess epicenter is bigger than I thought. 🤔
I never gave much credence to the Trauma as it's dmage falloff gives me cancer, as do all the tards that fling poxwalkers behind me, so my distaste for the staff caused me to mostly ignore it. However after like 300 hrs in Psyker already I'm looking to branch out so I'm revisiting it XD
spice veldt
that too; it's saved me by allowing me to hittrade to get a full charge off when I couldn't move out of cover because of a sniper and ragers being on my ass
though that's a very rare situation
the visual doesn't scale with the Blast Radius stat
lunar hollow
^
jade geode
both arc and i prefer focused channeling over rending shockwave fwiw
Fair. I'll try both.
lunar hollow
the trauma plays super awfully when you're levelling
spice veldt
at 80% blast radius, the epicentre is about the same size as the circle that you see
lunar hollow
like i would never ever use it if i had to level a psyker alt again until i hit 30
spice veldt
yeah I would never ever use it unless blast radius and charge rate were >75%
jade geode
at 80% blast radius, the epicentre is about the same size as the circle that you...
o.O Seriously?
spice veldt
I think it's marginally smaller but approximately that size
and the outer area extends beyond that
80% charge rate has a 2.3 meter radius circle of epicentre (16.6 square meters)
and the outer area is an 8.4 meter radius circle (221.7 square meters)
obtuse moth
which is a 4.6m and 16.8 meter diameter
spice veldt
is beeeeg

Alright boys, off to some T5 to take this baby for a spin XD

Yeah that's what I have selected rn, was just considering my options.

Quietitude is just more reliable IMO

What blessings are best on the combat axe?
obtuse moth

brutal momentum and headtaker or decimator
decimator? not the one that gives you like 20% power on first swing?
wanton sandal
yeah but I figured caxe like the antax or w/e was mostly just for single target deletion
obtuse moth
nope, antax is horde clear haha
obtuse moth
the other two caxes are more single target caue they have finesse stats
antax is leftclickspam and pusha tattack

unfortunately, force sword attacks are simply too good to make use of blazing spirit

12 stacks of soulblaze isn't anything to scoff at if you're comfortable with changing your playstyle a bit, but I wouldn't spend milk bottles on it unless you've got a pile to spare

imagine it could put in work on anything tanky enough to eat 3 crits from something that can roll it but at that point just keep swinging
spice veldt
the only use case I can think of is just smacking maulers and moving onto the next

maybe if it was something like that on special use blessing and you got 12 stacks on next hit or something
spice veldt
and simply not conditioning on crits at all

now that's more like it

jade geode
BTW Thanks all for the Trauma tips, ran a game with it and it played really well. Even for it being a rather tough game (three psykers, other 2 were surge) so we didn't have much frontline and our killing was slow so... was a good test of being able to "control" the situation.
supple skiff
double surge, oof
supple skiff
they say we're squishy, but I'm not convinced
unlimited dodging and toughness as needed have served me very well

How do you survive in open areas where there is nowhere to hide? In particular, the mission where you have to destroy the corruptions around the final (big) room, and end up hanging out by the gate waiting to extract. I always get wrecked in there.

I guess it all depends on how badly things are going. Pick a spot where you can funnel the AI into a kill zone like around a pillar, or back up against the wall. Or strafe and cleave to ball them up and eat up a group like a sandwich. 😛
spice veldt
my method personally is to just wait by the areas where ranged enemies drop down and whack them as soon as possible, momentarily ignoring the objective
if it's too much, I go down the stairwell to bait them and to regen toughness from killing trash with melee

I like to jump up on the round center piece, since the melee can't hit you

which mod do you use for moving HUD. "HUD Tweaker" or "Custom HUD"
spice veldt
both
they have some related functionalities, but they're quite different
custom HUD being much more easier to move things around, and HUD Tweaker giving you access to certain options
such as removing the background and portrait by your health/toughness
and centering your toughness bar

jade geode
should i reroll elite melee dmg perk here? or unyielding?
would maniac be best,...
I would definitely reroll Unyeilding. That's ONLY Bulwarks, Reapers and Bosses, all three targets you'll usually be brain Bursting anyway.
Elites, while maybe not optimal for a FS, does apply to Ragers, Maulers, and several other harder targets that you're more likely to be in melee with.
jade geode
Elites are...
near gale
tfw this is the best melk offers your psyker...
crude cape
ragers maulers, all the ogryns?
crude cape
do mutants count? flamers?
jade geode
So, it's not a bad perk. Good for broad damage against several targets you might be stuck in a bad spot with. Though not as great at hitting a breakpoint for any individual threat.
jade geode
do mutants count? flamers?
No, I don't think so iirc.
But Elites is definitely the more useful between the two.
spice veldt
mutants and flamers are specialists
jade geode
Unyeilding damage on a FS is... pretty ass XD

Cook. Everything.
spice veldt
spray it around and wait for soulblaze to kill stuff
jade geode
Rolled properly, it will literally clear the field of anything other than Crushers.
lethal swan
But it has no range and it doesn't do ANY damage

And what if my squad doesn't help at all?

and ability to apply soulblaze stacks to everything within its range

It does the most damage of any staff.
You might have a bad roll.
lethal swan
Damage 76% and Burn 75%
jade geode

Slap Terrifying Barrage on it, and/or learn to sidestep kite while using it. Honestly not trying to be a jerk; learning to dodge swings while channeling the Purg is important.
spice veldt
hopefully your cloud radius is high as well since that affects the range
lethal swan
Ok...
I'm not just bitching... honestly looking for advice3
No offence taken
66% Cloud?
bad?
jade geode
Damage 76% and Burn 75%
"Damage" is actually a dropstat for the Purge. It only affects the damage of the "direct damage" ticks, which is garbo, and a 20% roll or a 80% roll is only like 4 damage difference.
spice veldt
the only thing it's weak against are enemies outside its range, Crushers (soulblaze does basically nothing to Carapace), and shielded Bulwarks (will block Purg)
lethal swan
I noticed the low change in damage
jade geode
90% of your damage comes from the Soulblaze DoT
spice veldt
66% is ok

Much appreciated!
No worries! That's what the channel is here for 🙂
spice veldt
fucking hunting grounds
spice veldt
I usually prefer maniac because mutants are a DPS check of sorts whereas the flak enemies are ones you can run away from
though I also run the trauma which gives me a lot of space against melee elites
jade geode
no chance maniac is better for mutants etc?
Maniac isn't bad it's just that it applies to a narrower band of enemies, so you statistically get "less use" out of it.
It depends more on your playstyle, I guess. And/or what your ranged weapon is.
As you can use your other weapon to compensate for any weaknesses.
For me, personally, I prefer Flak, and my Illisi can 2-tap Scab(flak) shooters and bruisers if I headshot, which is easy with the Ilissi's hit-priority and attack pattern.
Also means that when I'm trying to cleave down multiple Scab Bruisers, or Dreg bruisers and hit the head, I can cut through them easier.
But again, if you really wanna just tear through Ragers and Mutants, by all means go for it! Or test out both and see which you like! 🙂
You can always reroll 😄

Why is the charge rate stat on the voidstrike so bad?
It only covers a 0.3 second charge time...
80% is the 1st one, 34% is the 2nd...
I feel like there should be a larger charge time difference than 0.14 seconds, from a 46% difference in the stat...
ionic frost
Either lower levels it'd be too bad, or higher levels it'd be too good.
Imagine if u could get it down to 1 sec base at 80%...or if at 0% it were a 3 second charge...
spice veldt
I wouldn't mind voidstrike having a faster charge rate at the higher end
quite unusual to me that trauma charges faster than voidstrike
fierce sinew
Either lower levels it'd be too bad, or higher levels it'd be too good.
I'm not saying this assessment of the balance is right or wrong, but it is plainly in conflict with how warp flurry currently operates
if the balance people thought charging a bit faster would be too much they probably wouldn't have juiced the hell out of the blessing that specifically deals with that
( I doubt any thinking of the kind took place at all)
ionic frost
Are you saying nerf warp flurry? In their mind they probably figured "once warp flurry is at 5 stacks, you're already over 50%+ peril so you won't get many fast casts." Also, that negates your ability to put blazing spirit + warp nexus on it for memez. =D
Do the balance people know about animation cancel? Do we want them to know about animation cancel?
fierce sinew
especially since they're happy to give blessings with the same name different magnitudes between weapon types, that's something they easily could have done. Put more juice in the voidstrike charge speed stat and less in the voidstrike warp flurry blessing
ionic frost
Sounds good to me, buff blazing memez! =)
fierce sinew
could make a perfect staff work exactly the way it does now, and not having t4 flurry less punishing
ionic frost
But I think at the end of the day they'll make voidestrike staff worse than it is now.
fierce sinew
I mean you could pick the numbers to be whichever way you wanted
ionic frost
Do their balance people play this game?
fierce sinew
I don't think anything like that level of consideration goes into it, is my main point
ionic frost
I don't think they do.
fierce sinew
I think they might have on some stream at some point? for a community thing
I might have fever dreamed that though
ionic frost
I don't call playing just when on a stream because you're paid to as playing the game...now if they played it for 5 hours every night they might have a good sense of what needs to be adjusted.

Reroll Flak to 25%, or reroll Unarmoured to Maniac?
long wharf
With the critical damage multipliers for fswords, melee crit chance is a solid option as well
Especially since you end up attacking a lot more with the Illisi
ionic frost
The reason I was thinking Flak to 25% was to increase the killing power of 4 stack Ascendant Blaze...but if that won't kill change any breakpoints...
And will 4 stack Ascendant Blaze kill unarmored shooters without +20% unarmored damage?
(With max slaughterer/unstable power)

make an enemy mutant in aoe stop the bonus dmg, but they stay suppressed?
to balance it

I'm sorry amigo, if you can't hard carry with a staff that will make any five enemies in the game stop what they are doing and stand there for a few seconds and take damage on top of it in the time it takes you to right click, left click, and then then R. that's the definition of a player issue. The only staff that matches it in versatility is the purgatus staff. The purgatus staff just has different enemies and situations it's weak again
If i'm running surge staff I rarely get into a situation where my whole team is dead, because I have the tools that stops all the specials that suprise wipe teams. When i am in that situation pressing my F key to push/light everything around me on fire and some slash/push with my Illsi typically gives me the breathing room to go back the dogs/trappers etc under control.
What I'm getting from this is you aren't super great at melee crowd control, and that's fine a lot of people aren't, and it's a learned skill. But that's not an issue with a surge staff. It's jsut an issue that you can kind of get around with staffs like the purgatus.

Its to take it within the context of a psyker
An average psyker player doesn’t understand what a melee weapon is
So to their mind surge being bad vs hordes, means that their entire loadout is bad against hordes.

olive ember
The main problem of the surge staff is that it sucks against hordes
specifically you can't use it for mixed hordes
its a cc staff, so it has trouble killing certain targets, and then throw in the fact that these targets can spawn in a horde and its just like
eh
like the only noticeable advantage of a surge staff vs a purge is against crushers, mutants, and bursters. The only noticeable advantage vs the trauma is against mutants
if you throw in a horde in between each elite/special type and suddenly the surge staff falls off, even against mutants which it has a trouble targeting once a horde is involved

fyi, power% increases damage, cleave, and stagger by that amount. So +75% power means +75% damage, +75% cleave, and +75% stagger.

actively run from your team
if my team is on one side of the section, then I run to the other side
there are a few map sections which have splits, like cryorod or enclavum
trauma has a maximum range of 20m but I find it to take a bit more time to aim at anything that's past 10 meters on flat elevation, so I'd probably strive to be that distance away from the trauma user
or just let your team clean up the stragglers and loot while you run away
you're probably gated by dockets anyways, so you don't need the mats unless you've got curios to farm for

What would you say about this build <@345531303942291457>
On paper seems fine, in reality it's far from optimal
You are basically betting all your damage around wrack and ruin + wildfire which are both very situational and hard to get value out of. In case of wildfire it's also plagued by bugs.
This is a build that shines the best in the meat grinder, unless you are playing with 3 heavily melee focused zealots/ogryns
And contrary to that, if you are paired with a good bolter veteran you could as well just suicide using a barrel and stay dead for the whole run

depends on the attack and to what armour type

Charge with RMB. Left click when dog is in the air

When I got it, it was just the luck of when it charged up and fired.
Admittedly, it was pouncing someone else.

- power from Slaighterer stacks will boost soulblaze tremendously
The effect will only apply when you have the sword out. Kills from soulblaze will proc Slaughterer.
So if you have applied enough soul blaze for a mob to die, switching to sword will probably start Slaughter on it's own. Once you have a fwew stack the damage will get so high the horde will vanish very quickly. Or, you can get a few quick kills to jump start it.
This also works for Headtaker on Zealot - in that case, each tick of fire will trigger headtaker, so you will instantly go to max power boost.
Warp charges, warp unleashed, and +damage on your staff will all contribute to soul blaze damage.
Which is why +unyielding on purg can be a good perk for bosses and reaper/bulwarks, the numbers get fairly large.
And also why the Shredder is so absurd with Ascendant Blaze.

what blessings should I look for on a mk4 blaze sword ?
mental rock
slaughterer is bis for force swords
2nd blessing is personal preference
some popular options are uncanny strike, deflector, or unstable power
tropic vigil
deflector if you want to be a jedi

Eat bullets to heal.

its generally agreed upon that WR is a meme
spice veldt
maybe if you run voidstrike or surge just so that you have an infinite cleave option
mental rock
personally I would only take WR if im using a shredder or other gun

Heresy is tier 3 right? Or is it 4

4

I have tried to make WAR profitable but it's hard. Warp Unleashed is a default choice because it hits some breakpoints on other weapons. On soulblaze? Pretty meh, especially compared to +power boosts. Purg doesn't need tranquility, though, and WAR is not really synergistic with ascendant blaze (you have better things to do that BB alot).
Also, to make SB stacks from WAR good, you would want to pump them with +power, which rarely makes sense if you found a BB target while playing purg... so it sort of dies a lonely death.
shadow wigeon

In theory you'd use it on a BB build, but... I really don't know if there's a competitive build where you would BB enough to make WAR useful, especially when WU DOES hit breakpoints on BB
shadow wigeon

Sorry I was meaing to agree with you there
it sounded like I didn't
mental rock
I can see it useful on shredder because of the way pinning fire+blaze away synergize with SB
shadow wigeon
Yeah, take it when the other feats in that tier don't matter. However.... 2 hitting a bulwark with WU is almost always valuable, so it's tough.
mental rock
but thats all I can see it used for...
shadow wigeon
It's fun to run, but the limited range also means there will be plenty of BB targets where the effect won't trigger, or it will trigger on enemies that just don't matter.
mental rock
yeah even with the buffs it's still so underwhelming
shadow wigeon
It does make me want to try a pure BB build and see what happens. I have a bad feeling, though.
orchid shadow
What would make it useful compared to Warp Unleashed? If it affected all enemies, not just elites?
mental rock
it would be cool if it made BB explode in an AOE or something

I think elites only is a good limitation, maybe just wider area, so you'd be incentivized to do it.

Yeah to TBF it's a pain to maintain peril while using your gun
so it is skippable
fierce sinew
the 10% you get at 0 peril is still probably adding more damage than W&R
over the course of a mission
plus any time your flayer procs and puts you to 40 you get more
shadow wigeon
the 10% you get at 0 peril is still probably adding more damage than W&R
Yeah consistent damage, especially with the overtuned shredder, is going to win.
fierce sinew
power buffs just too good
shadow wigeon
I take back what I said about 2-hitting a bulwark, I forgot that 2 BB with WAR on bulwark also kills them
fierce sinew
can kill bulwark with 2bbs and nothing else with wu+battery
shadow wigeon
can kill bulwark with 2bbs and nothing else with wu+battery
Yeah we're comparing WU to WAR, where WU gives you 2 shot bulwakr, but so does WAR
orchid shadow
It'd be nice if the feats synergized more with the staves. Like make WAR with a Surge staff make lightning come out of your BBs, or make a secondary larger aftershock with Trauma
mental rock
nah I dont think that would be healthy, unless it worked for all ranged weapons
they should give staves a new special attack though, because the bonk is just terrible
shadow wigeon
can kill bulwark with 2bbs and nothing else with wu+battery
WU will 2-shot bulwark with 0 stacks - do you mean crushers?
north cradle
it would be cool if it made BB explode in an AOE or something
I keep saying this, the Peril Resist should be made a passive, and put in its place a feat that gives BB a concussive blast that staggers enemies but doesn't deal damage, and then give Wrack and Ruin a smaller direct damage AoE on top of Soulblaze

Are nexus and flurry really the best blessings for purgatus?

I’m have this rn I’m assuming when I get a better staff with 370/380 just take nexus off of this since it’s t4?

I've been away from the game for a while, anything noteworthy happened with psyker in the last few months?

Also is deflector over rated I have it t3 on my illisi and barely get any use out of it tbh the ammount of stagger when they shoot it is kinda jarring too
rain birch
Hm I c the shake when they shoot it is so weird lol
feral verge
once you figure out that you can dodge almsot 24/7 with force swords
deflector becomes just a neat little thing
rain birch
Yah I noticed that already lmaoo
feral verge
not a must have

nope

we are pretty strong now; faster quelling, we got two extremely good force swords, some feats got buffed, warp charges give more damage, they drop off one-by-one, etc.
feral verge
if you want the ultimate dmg force sword, go for slaughterer and unstable power
unstable power shines on swords with low warp resistance
