Deimos and a Zweihander

spice veldt
#

p much, besides the obscurus god damn 2nd light uppercut and 1st heavy overhead

karmic delta
#

I think the Deimos is more a Zweihander than a Longsword now that I think of it xd

spice veldt
#

the obscurus has more "sweeping" stuff but it does have a stab, so I reckoned that the deimos model would fit that moveset a bit more

karmic delta
#

It fits for stabbing and doing overhead attacks

kind jay
#

Deimos is backwards obscurus but the sweeps are better angled

nova dirge
#

I would like a great sword for the psyker

white sky
#

It's simply too small

nova dirge
#

Would be pretty cool

white sky
#

Zweihander is very literal

karmic delta
white sky
#

Yk what I want? A force fist

#

Where's the Chad psyker who wanted his force weapon to be these hands

spice veldt
#

the hook at the end does connote more of a "stabbing weapon"

nova dirge
#

Nope, i want a force sword that sends out like a wave of soul blaze or something

white sky
#

Average Moonlight Greatsword user

kind jay
#

still waiting for force revolver

nova dirge
karmic delta
#

I guess its about similar to this other Zweihander shape

white sky
#

Flamberge

karmic delta
#

Sucks to get stabbed by this bad boy

white sky
#

Iirc

nova dirge
karmic delta
#

Oh yeah Flamberge.

kind jay
#

yeaboi

nova dirge
karmic delta
#

And even more painful to get stabbed by it KEKW_ogryn

nova dirge
#

Debatable

kind jay
#

I'm no expert but i feel like getting stabbed by anything hurts

raven gate
#

in truth, the demios is the dark souls of force swords

nova dirge
#

What

karmic delta
#

Kinda like how getting stabbed by a Karambit. Well yes getting stabbed by anything hurts. But a Karambit is specifically designed to make your day a shitty one

nova dirge
#

Also give the psyker a thunderhammer

karmic delta
#

even better

#

Force polehammer whatthefuck_heresy

proper raven
#

Siblings, decent Psyker sword?

raven gate
kind jay
#

getting stabbed is nice and all but how about a papercut right on the nipple?

proper raven
nova dirge
karmic delta
feral verge
#

it's not pretty decent

#

both deimos and illisi are really good

#

far beyond 'decent'

proper raven
#

I guess I'm good for now

feral verge
#

until you're level 30

#

it's a major waste

proper raven
#

Didn't, I got it like that

feral verge
#

just use empra's gifts and shit from the store

#

good

nova dirge
burnt maple
#

the handle on the deimos is too short to be a zwiehander

#

my gues would be a bastard swrd

#

if it was a zweihander, a psyker wouldn't be able to one hand it

karmic delta
#

Or are you referring to an Arming Sword?

burnt maple
#

bastard sword is a longer long sword

#

but it could be used 2 handed

raven gate
#

i think bastard sword is a type of long sword iirc

burnt maple
#

it is, but it's between a long sword and claymore in size

nova dirge
#

Give the psykers a falchion

#

That would be fire

raven gate
#

i think that would make zealots upset if we got a falcion before them

burnt maple
#

bastard swords handle length is longer than a long sword

raven gate
#

i miss my burning flail from vt2 😦

burnt maple
#

i miss good mechanics from vt2

#

and crafting, and mission selection, and literally everything this game does wrong compared

late yew
late yew
#

bastard sword has exact length for 2 hands

burnt maple
#

i'm just going off video games, so if you know, by all means

late yew
#

longsword has a longer handle

karmic delta
late yew
#

Longsword is weapon meant to be 2-handed

#

even thought you kinda can 1-hand it, but it is awful

#

While bastard sword can be used fine both ways

karmic delta
#

I guess warp assisted handling?

burnt maple
#

maybe haha

karmic delta
#

The Deimos and Illisi are kinda too big for it to be an Arming sword

late yew
#

you know, there are plenty other 1-handed swords

burnt maple
#

a gladius would fit zealot

#

and it's a one handed sword

spice veldt
#

extremely strong wrists

burnt maple
#

warp wrists

late yew
#

also, funny thing

spice veldt
#

just that our arms are too weak to handle anything else larger

late yew
#

psyker holds force weapons like it is a rapier

karmic delta
burnt maple
#

most of the force sword attacks are fencing

karmic delta
#

So we already have a Saber in its own dedicated weapon

late yew
#

Zealot's heavy sword is, in fact, a falchion

karmic delta
#

huh

late yew
#

may be thrust

nova dirge
#

Zealot needs a battle axe

late yew
#

but other than that, no

karmic delta
burnt maple
#

the trust looks like fencing

karmic delta
#

So what are the Devil claws supposed to be? Machetes? Goloks?

burnt maple
#

machetes is what i'd guess

karmic delta
#

Theres 3 different models too

#

Mark 4 model. BUFF DEVIL CLAWS.

burnt maple
#

they need to do something with them, i never see anyone use anything but power swords and antax axes

karmic delta
#

I assume the "teeth" are for cutting leaves and stuff

#

Since they're Catachan made

burnt maple
#

makes sense, since it's a jungle world etc

late yew
#

have you even seen a real machete?

#

Where the hell you saw teeth on them

nova dirge
#

I never liked the axes

karmic delta
burnt maple
#

i forgot the chain axes even existed lol

karmic delta
#

Mark 1

late yew
karmic delta
#

Mark 7

karmic delta
burnt maple
#

catachan sword buffs would be cool

#

i want to be able to parry crap

#

not on psyker, but it'd be nice if they were open for vet/zeal

#

instead of just trash

karmic delta
# karmic delta Mark 1

I assume since the mark 1 is for mostly CC. The teeth or serrated shape on the sword is to cut through flesh?

thorn tapir
#

a not dogwater trinket 😮

tropic vigil
#

but it could be 21%

thorn tapir
#

G O O D E N O U G H

ornate epoch
#

so which is the force sword of choice?

broken carbon
#

the single target damage is amazing, and the crowd clear is good enough, especially with slaughterer

late yew
#

problem is, psyker does not need single target damage

#

we have BB

spice veldt
#

BB has shit DPS

broken carbon
#

without kinetic barrage, i agree

spice veldt
#

still shit even with kinetic barrage

broken carbon
#

ehh

spice veldt
#

it is absolutely not comparable to anything like a gun

broken carbon
#

with it i regularly get the most boss damage on my team

#

sometimes i get out damaged but its not very often

spice veldt
#

prob just pub players or other melees having meh single-target

#

but certainly not with deimos as the other weapon for comparison

late yew
late yew
near wyvern
#

@spice veldt @feral verge did you siblings now you can animation cancel Deimos special with ult and you get full damage

spice veldt
#

what

late yew
broken carbon
spice veldt
#

something something thunder hammer

spice veldt
#

ye, just wasn't aware that you could ult cancel out of it

#

i wasn't able to do that with the obscurus before

broken carbon
#

neat

late yew
#

so you may be want to take first level 30 feat?

#

FOr faster ult cd

near wyvern
#

it might be A strategy

#

perhaps not the best one but A strategy

burnt maple
#

i prefer the illisi

late yew
#

well i generally prefer void + illi + kinetic barrage

#

covers all enemy types

burnt maple
#

void/illisi/KB is a solid build

near wyvern
#

well it's sorta animation cancel and sorta not

broken carbon
#

is it just me or is the void just kinda overshadowed in most situations by the trauma

spice veldt
#

what having finite cleave compared to an infinite cleave weapon does to a mf

broken carbon
#

huh

spice veldt
#

oh you mean in the sense of being able to ult during the special

ornate epoch
#

.. what is soulblaze again? :S

spice veldt
#

fire but blue

#

it's a damage over time debuff on enemies

#

similar to Burn (but blue)

near wyvern
ornate epoch
#

ok so i guess i dont use that feat

tropic vigil
#

bugged af like i dont use it? ive been running it for a while

near wyvern
broken carbon
spice veldt
#

ticks slower but has a longer duration iirc

near wyvern
broken carbon
#

oh

#

thought it was the same

near wyvern
#

nope

broken carbon
#

fair

near wyvern
broken carbon
#

huh

#

let what slip

near wyvern
#

that it's fair it deals less damage than regular burn even though that's not what you ment with fair, just trying to throw in some humour

broken carbon
#

ohhhh

#

you see

#

i’m stupid as hell

near wyvern
#

aren't we all, we are playing this game

broken carbon
#

that’s a fair point

late yew
#

It deals less damage because it does not require ammo i suppose

proper raven
#

I think I'll lean for either first or third, recommendations?

feral verge
#

go with 3rd

#

unless you are using purga (fire) staff

#

then use ascendant blaze (option 2)

#

1st isn't bad, but it's more for niche builds. not as amazing as it sounds

#

3rd is all purpose

#

2nd pairs amazingly well with fire staff, like i said

near wyvern
#

and fire trauma

#

AB with fire trauma as well

#

and shredder

#

I wonder how good of a meme it would be to craft Bloodthirsty Blazing Spirit 4 deimos, run something like 111131 and just try to use specials into ult to nuke things, I bet it's a lot worse than what it sounds 😅

feral verge
#

in comparison to the other feats in the tree

#

sometimes i see new psykers using it

#

to be clear, by itself the feat isn't terrible. but the other two feats are by far more impactful

calm sapphire
#

Crit hit damage useful right or should I switch it for somethin else?

harsh urchin
#

Crit chance

proper raven
feral verge
#

based

#

another big mistake i see new psykers make is surge staff usage

#

i see high level psykers making the mistake too

#

they use surge too much, and dont melee enough

#

surge should only be used for elite groups, sometimes specials, and sometimes shooter groups

#

melee should be used 90% of the time

#

surge is not a weapon, its a tool

#

dont use it on hordes or trash mobs

feral verge
calm sapphire
#

tbh, running a wound curios isn't necessary but getting downed once makes u see the "im on my last wound" screen effect which is annoying.

idle aurora
#

Just get mod that removes all screen effects KEKW_ogryn

#

Game is much better when i actually can see things on my screen

#

There was also a mod that removed 100% peril sfx, before fatshark gave an option for that. Saved me from going insane

calm sapphire
idle aurora
#

The whisper part was fine, it's the strike sound that was driving me nuts

idle aurora
#

The only problem is that fire effect on enemies remains blue, so it kinda clashes with ur orange/green flame. I just made it smaller and left colour default

calm sapphire
idle aurora
calm sapphire

lol

idle aurora

thanks

Amen! So many people think surge is bad 'cause it doesn't get kills. It disables every enemy short of monstrosities for low-risk killing and consumes 0 ammo. How is that not good?

#

The trick is to prioritise the enemies your teammates are fighting, particularly in melee combat, and pinging your target whenever you go to stunlock them so your teammates know who to hit.

spice veldt
#

it's a fine staff on its own, but I personally prefer something more generalist like the trauma

spice veldt
#

not to my memory

#

nothing really changing guns or feats recently

olive ember
#

so basically

#

Surge > Trauma = Purge > Surge > Voidstrike

#

yes?

#

glad we are all in agreement then

safe crystal
#

Surge = voidstrike

#

Welcome to the Bowling Ball tier

olive ember
#

How dare you

#

Surge > voidstrike def

safe crystal
#

Surge can kill 5 guys, voidstrike cleaves and kills 6 guys

#

Surge = voidstrike

olive ember
#

Voidstrike hits one mauler, surge hits 5

#

Surge > Voidstrike

safe crystal
#

Voidstrike 2 shots those 5 dreg gunners, surge tickles them

olive ember
#

autopistol exists, if you wanna kill gunners why are you using voidstrike, strength nullified

kind jay
#

meanwhile i just want to dual wield illy and deimos

safe crystal
#

Autopistol exists, why would i stun things when i can kill them, strength nullified

olive ember
#

.>

safe crystal
#

Cant wait for PF autopistol to get nerfed tbf

kind jay
#

because lighting goes bzzzz?

safe crystal
#

Yeah but bowling ball goes boom

#

Many times if you hit climbing enemies

#

So it deafens you

kind jay
#

the best staff is the one with the most copypasta

olive ember
#

definitely surge staff then

#

all they would need to do with voidstrike to make it good would be to give it infinite cleave tbh

#

if it actually went through every enemy (except say ogryns) until it hit the wall then it would actually be rly good

#

rn its just a gun with more steps

safe crystal
#

Even with infinite cleave, it has major issues, so that wouldnt solve its problems

olive ember
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

yeah but start somewhere I guess

safe crystal
#

The hitbox being way larger than it actually is, so if a bulwark = exists, you're sol

kind jay
#

what's weird is i was gonna ping you for this. it's like you heard the words surge in the wind

#

"who talking shit about surge?"

olive ember
#

Friendly surge staff advocate

safe crystal
#

I wish surge had elite/specialist target priority for the lightning

#

I'd maybe use it if it had

ornate hamlet
#

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.

olive ember
#

Damn and I was about to put the copy pasta down

#

lmao

calm sapphire
#

How good is the rapier compared to ilisi?

olive ember
#

haha

#

the dueling sword

#

waiti

#

just to make sure you talking about the dueling sword

kind jay
#

it's like using a toothpick vs a blender

kind jay
#

oh

olive ember
#

oh yeah

#

thats a meme

#

don't even bother compare

#

what you should be comparing it to is hte deimos

idle aurora
#

Aren't dul swords more like a deimos? But very bad one

olive ember
#

basically the dueling swords are if you take the deimos, get rid of its special, make its heavy attacks complete shit

#

also infinite dodges

calm sapphire
#

oh so ilisi and deimos > every other melee weapon?

idle aurora
#

People say game needs new weapons, brother man, we legit have entire weapon classes now, that are just useless KEKW_ogryn

calm sapphire
idle aurora
#

Oh and we have obscurus sword, which is just a weaker deimos

harsh urchin
#

I dont think it's the weapon classes being useless lol

#

I think it's just the power blessings very overtuned

#

once they nerf slaught down to like 25% and PF down to like 40%

#

the other weapons will be much more competitive

rose lily
#

does this mean 90% of its REMAINING health?

lilac tapir
#

your teammates can do max 10% or the penance is failed

spice veldt
#

should just be 90% of its health as long as you get the killing blow

lilac tapir
#

basically this gives you some buffer in case the monstrosity spawns and gets hit by a stray bullet or grenade, which can happen even if your team knows you're doing the penance

full bane
#

There’s a mod that lets you rename weapons

#

As well as curios

lilac tapir
#

I saw that, really useful cause you can name curious in a way that it's obvious what stats they have (like HP/STAM/THOUGH + perks) to be able to easily tell them apart in your inventory.

river dawn
#

What is rending?

full bane
#

Removes damage reduction

river dawn
#

So i would assume its useless for hordes? is it like for elites?

full bane
#

It applies to all enemy types

#

Even bosses

#

Normal use case is to help kill crushers and ragers faster

river dawn
#

i mean it doesnt do much against normal mobs right?

#

since they already die from 1 attack most of the time

full bane
#

It still effects trash mobs the same as it effects elites, specials and bosses

safe crystal
#

Rending in detail

full bane
#

But like you said it’s not as impactful against trash mobs because they are inherently weak

spice veldt
#

weapons tend to deal pretty good damage to Unarmoured and infested yeah

full bane
#

Greatly appreciated

safe crystal
#

Thank Arco, not me

spice veldt
#

depends on the weapon as well

full bane
#

Either way

safe crystal
#

I just remember we had this exact same conversation a few days ago

lunar hollow
#

i miss when rending could lower ur damage on certain weapons

spice veldt
#

uncanny strike is less useful on the force swords which have pretty good armour mods except against carapave

#

and more useful on the knife which does have its armour mods all over the place

lunar hollow
#

so true

full bane
#

Haven’t really used Rending blessings on classes other than Ogryn

#

Can Opener is a gift from the Emprah himself

lethal folio
#

I'll still take 33% armour damage and double maniac over another power blessing.

full bane
#

Making armor easier to deal with is always nice no matter what

lethal folio
#

I put a lot of value on consistently killing dreg bruisers with a single light.

#

Also the way rending works, 100% rending causes your stagger to be doubled.

calm sapphire
#

is surge capable of staggering bosses or nah?

safe crystal
#

Nah

calm sapphire
#

lame

tame hawk
calm sapphire
noble socket
#

so tell me why we need power cells when spark ead is a walking battery with surge staff?

#

cant we just put his head inside the hole or something?

safe crystal
#

Gotta jam the surge psyker into the machine

calm sapphire
near gale
#

How is this purgatus?

#

I am thinking about just ripping the blessing off of it

safe crystal
#

Grab it for the nexus, if you have spare Milkies. Perks arent great

near gale
#

I have 4.1k before the 1k melk bucks rewards, and like 530 more melk bucks from my last contracct

#

and that's like 200 cheaper than another one with the same blessing

#

Well this is my new purgatus

calm sapphire
#

unyielding?

cosmic sigil
#

so i tried a few run with shield and my exorcist blade + quietude

#

it seems to work quite well, i just stroke my illisi every 5s to stay around 80

feral verge
#

Yeah

#

It's an underrated build

harsh gust
#

train station boss fight is stressful man

cosmic sigil
#

second time i take least dmg

#

so mayyyybe there's something

#

atm, it seeems i do not need essence harvest with that setup

harsh gust
#

what do i switch deflector with

cosmic sigil
#

slaughterer

#

you want more power

harsh gust
#

dont have it yet godwhy

cosmic sigil
#

even slaughterer 2 ?

#

or even 1 ???

harsh gust
#

nope

#

am i missing something with the illisi

#

feels like deimos is way better

fading patrol
#

Left is better right? What perk to swap

feral verge
#

Left is better

#

Swap block eff for maniac damage

#

For force swords, maniac damage is priority 1

#

Flak is priority 2

fading patrol
#

Yeah i know maniac its just a tossup between the perks

feral verge
#

Unless you're doing a funny block build, maniac should always be slotted in

smoky wigeon
#

Do I need to go that fire blue build for psykers?

Also what blessing and perks for an illisi sword

feral verge
#

After that it's a tossup between deflector and unstable power

#

Deflector for defense

smoky wigeon
#

I never know what perks I should get.

feral verge
#

Unstable power for damage (20% more at high (80%) peril)

#

Perks are what I mentioned above

#

Maniac and flak

smoky wigeon
#

OH! thought those were blessings my mad

feral verge
#

Maniac is priority

smoky wigeon
#

OHHH my I'm sorry lol

feral verge
smoky wigeon
#

Okay. And flak is armored enemies right?

feral verge
#

When I said mentioned above

#

Flak is most shooters

#

A lot of enemies have flak armor

#

But crusher ogryns have carapace

#

And so do mauler helmets

smoky wigeon
#

Ah well we just brain bursts them right?

feral verge
#

Most of the time

smoky wigeon
#

And if I have high peril I can get a 25 percent damage boost and 1 shot then with BB?

feral verge
#

But if you're brave you use force sword special on them

smoky wigeon
#

I'm very brave

feral verge
#

No you can't one shot ogryns with Bb

#

No matter what

#

You can 2 shot them though

smoky wigeon
#

Helmet mauler guys?

feral verge
#

With the right setup

#

They can't be one shot either with bb

smoky wigeon
#

....hm. Okay. Well I'm dumb.

feral verge
#

No you're not

smoky wigeon
#

Do the perks from my sword not affect my BB?

feral verge
#

Theres a learning curve to the game

#

I didn't know shit when I got into this game

#

No

smoky wigeon
#

Oh. Well then that makes a lil more sense.

feral verge
#

Blessings on your sword will affect dot damage (like the blue soul blaze fire from purga staff)

smoky wigeon
#

How does THAT make sense?!

feral verge
#

So you can set a group of enemies on fire with a gus tor two

#

Gust*

#

Then swap to your force sword with slaughterer on it

#

And slaughterer will activate

smoky wigeon
#

Very interesting.

feral verge
#

Making your dot damage so more damage

#

As well as your sword

smoky wigeon
#

I wasn't gonna go blue fire spec.

#

Think there's some feats for it

feral verge
#

My main build is 'blue fire' spec

#

It's my most powerful setup

#

My fav setup

#

After 700 hours

smoky wigeon
#

Interesting.

#

I'll maybe have to mess around with it

#

I suck with staves soooo

feral verge
#

Here it is

#

Being better at melee is more important

cosmic sigil
#

ok mankar

#

i'm ready to go back to unstable

feral verge
#

I see many psykers just use staff all the time and then get bodied when they should be meleeing

#

I am an unstable power stan till the day I die

#

I kind like quell speed

safe crystal
#

I mean, thats entirely up to you with the staffs. Quell is a dump stat on purg, after they buffed the quelling speed across the board

signal merlin
#

strongest staff?

harsh urchin
#

beam staff from vt2

restive slate
#

Need beam staff in darktide

#

A proper sniping staff

harsh urchin
#

Imagine if the voidstrike was half as good as bolt or fireball staff

fathom adder
#

A staff that's good against distant dispersed shooters

#

That would be awesome

I’m still a big simp for purgatus. Always will be.

I got this, but idk what to do with it from here

Should I roll the Crit chance into flak I'm assuming? Keep slaughter and make shred something else? I don't have much banked for blessings

#

This is my staff I'll be using with it

So the force sword does give you utility if you're in a pinch

@azure rapids trying to help but I guess that's not allowed so here is a screenshot of my two cents that auto mod tried to block

Auto mod claimed this as spam. I guess I am too often here helping people out. Suffering from kindness banhammer

A bit low on warp resist as well but it will surely serve you well

#

i can roll flak

near wyvern
#

It's just that unyielding is reapers which you are rarely gonna flame and bulwarks which block your flames with shields as well as monstrosities which are very risky to flame (and BB pumping at 97 deals better or same DPS but a lot safer).

Flak on the other hand is all the scabs, including maulers so roasting those a bit faster is quite beneficial.

feral verge
#

i'd swap to flak too

#

for bosses though, i like to set them on fire for dot

#

then i BB them

#

i never tested the dps

#

but in most games i get about 22k boss dmg on average

#

posted this late last night but not sure many people were up wanted to try again lol think i finally finished my trauma staff, i think its basically godroll, right? Is there anything else/breakpoints/good stats or perks missing I should have that would make it worth it to keep crafting them, or am i done?

You could find Rending 4 haha

karmic delta
#

I cant really think of any dump stat on Trauma

restive slate
#

Nice

crude cape
#

so now that rending 4 is on it, its basically a god roll right? everything 70%, the important stats 75+, both good tier 4 blessings. And isn't infested + flak exactly the best perks?

restive slate
#

If you're ever bored with Rending Trauma, try to make a Crit Blazing Trauma

#

I'm having fun with that now

crude cape
#

someone said infested gives you a breakpoints against spamming on poxies

graceful eagle
#

infested is kinda meh

karmic delta
crude cape
#

right but i believe the purpose of infested was to be able to 1 shot with half/quicker charges

crude cape
#

i notice it lets me anti-horde pretty well

#

it was over a month ago someone told me to go for infested/flak

#

or infested/carapace

#

but said flak breakpoints better since rending helps with carapace anyway

#

and unyielding is meh bc its meh against bosses anyway, should be brainbursting with the buff up

karmic delta
#

theres nothing wrong with experimenting and taking risk

karmic delta
#

I myself, with T4 Rending go for Carapace 25%

#

I dont have any Infested perks for it

crude cape
#

gotcha

karmic delta
#

I dont run Warp Flurry either xd

crude cape
#

ah i love it, being able to spam 2-3 short charges

#

then its stacked and start doing longer ones for big dmg

#

lets you spam it alot

tropic vigil
#

flurry is great

crude cape
#

and ive been running it with a unconventional build
312133

#

with illy

#

the worst part about this setup is that even with 4 stacks, brain burst doesn't kill certain specials (flamers, ragers) reliably if you're low peril

#

need a follow up shot with staff or something

#

over 50 peril i think it does, ish

ornate hamlet
#

4 charges can't one-shot flamers and dreg ragers

spice veldt
#

flamers can get one-shot with warp unleashed and enough peril

ornate hamlet
#

They both come out with a hair of health

#

Well, yeah, but peril management ewwww stinkyyyy ewwww

spice veldt
#

peepee poopoo

#

true

karmic delta
crude cape
karmic delta
#

I just wish Flurry, when quelling doesnt remove Flurry stacks

crude cape
#

but true need like 50+ peril to do flamers and ragers

spice veldt
#

i had a fun consignment yard finale where I was one-shotting flamers cuz I had nothing else to do but build up peril

karmic delta
#

I think it was my quell speed

crude cape
karmic delta
#

That allows me to, evne at high peril. Quell

spice veldt
#

i usually try to stay at high peril, so the only worry is not having enough warp charges

crude cape
#

i just tend to rely on F to keep spamming, and when i have to KEEP going do bigger quells

karmic delta
#

Quell > Charge shot > Quell

spice veldt
#

yeah with enough quell speed, you only need to quell two ticks to get a full trauma blast off

spice veldt
#

(assuming your warp res isn't too bad)

#

I don't use flurry

#

I use focused channeling + rending shockwave

crude cape
#

arco mighta been the one to give me this build, i used to be a 6stacker no questions, who wouldn't you always run 6 stacks and psychic communion, right?

# flint cobalt any tips for pskyer feats? trying to get a good combo

If your going for a staff build with trauma, fire or surge, you want t1 to be quietude, void wants warp absorption, while gun builds usually want essence harvest.
Right now for T2 all the staves want Warp unleashed while guns are a toss up between WU or wrack and ruin depending on Alot of stuff.
For t3 it's really toss up, all three are great it just depends on what you want. Communion for constant warp charges, aura for constant ults (great with kinetic barrage) or lacerations which is just a massive damage buff for you and the team on anything you trigger BB on
T4 is really only kinetic shield or kinetic deflection. Both are great defensive options but you really wanna take shield for hi peril builds, and deflection for everything else.
T5 is another tossup depending on the rest of your build, all three have good uses in context though flayer is the most flexible and allows for fantastic warp charge upkeep as well as good burst damage pairing exceptionally with guns and lacerations. Warp battery gives a nice boost in damage if you can keep 6 charges up and can work wonders with all 3 of the t6 feats. Wildfire is more situational since it only works on builds with SB but truly shines in a build with blazing spirit trauma to get that fire going everywhere.
T6: Quicken makes you mega tanky with high peril builds since you can Regen insane amounts of toughness constantly if you keep your charges up. AB is the go to for fire builds allowing you to decimate hordes with a button press, while kinetic barrage allows you to tear through specials and elites with ease and with aura in t3 you can ult constantly with all your bb kils

flint cobalt
crude cape
# flint cobalt any tips for pskyer feats? trying to get a good combo

zazy has good tips, lots of good combos however. Psykers probably have the most overall build variety of the classes
If you're going purgatus staff, I like a single target melee weapon (deimos sword, or Rashad axe. But an Illisi sword will always just work too) and run 311112 (or 311212, see zazy's tier 4 for why)

if you're rocking Trauma staff, you can run something like 311113, or 321113.
but I like to rock it with a Illisi sword, and rock 312233. This is kind of a melee focused trauma build that uses less max stacks but can keep peril high and keep casting with fast ults quelling or stay in melee with high peril and high dmg. Unstable Power + slaughterer Illisi and a good trauma is needed but fun build.

If you're rocking surge staff you can also go 311113 or something like 322113, if you want to focus on lowering peril to keep casting more for stuns. Like I said, the psyker feels like it has flexibility so feel free to experiment with some options and see what you like

I assume it's time to upgrade?

#

my current one

#

though... the perks are meh.

crude cape
#

Top one isn’t better, that charge rate and perks are bad

#

Bottom one especially if you find tier 4 flurry is way better. Top one downsides imo don’t worth t4 transfer peril when you already have t3 and it has two major downsides otherwise

any suggestions on what should i swap perk and blessings to?

#

Ayo level 30 psyker yall

spice veldt
#

pro tip: avoid maps with stairs

#

i can't say there's much going around those grate stairs

#

besides being 20 meters away from them and relying on the edge of trauma's aiming system to hit enemies on them

noble socket
#

I kinda feel it wouldnt be an issue if there was a toggle for aiming the circle to be on the crosshair instead of under it

white sky
#

Hey, what do yall take in the 3rd tier of feats?

spice veldt
#

I like Psykinetic's Aura (along with Kinetic Flayer in the lvl25)

white sky
#

Was debating Battery instead of Flayer tbh

#

Quicken also seems really good for 30

spice veldt
#

i know that people like quicken to spam their staffs

#

e.g., to make full use of warp flurry

#

I personally don't like it because it dumps all of your warp charges, and I dislike having to purposely swap to brain burst just for warp charges

#

psykinetic's aura usually covers my cooldown needs

neat summit

I'll give it a shot

you want to dodge because you can attack while dodging

muted dune
#

is it better to focus on toughness or health for curios for psyker?

lean valley
#

I'd say a +3 stamina curio and two health curios

spice veldt
#

depends

#

I like toughness because ranged combat is the most annoying part of the game for me, and I have a "kill them before they kill me" playstyle that meshes well with toughness

#

though I also melee a lot to take advantage of higher max toughness

lean valley
#

A 19% and 20% health curio oddly bugs my health above the final wound threshold on damnation so can go down twice without wasting a curio slot on that garbage

spice veldt
#

if you tend to take a lot of hits in melee continuously, or you're not taking advantage of a higher max toughness (not regenning a lot of toughness from either feats or melee), I'd just go for health

cosmic sigil
#

Wait. You got textures now?

Is this with kinetic shield?

quietitude or warp absorption?

quietitititude

#

I don't like warp absorption because I'm afraid of situations where I have to 1v1 a reaper with no toughness

feral verge
#

on my melee build i've been trying warp absopriotn

feral verge
#

dumb

#

i am interested in trying toughness stacking more, on psyker

#

but

#

my current curios have really good perks

spice veldt
#

i think warp absorption would fit my playstyle way better, but I do think that quietitude rounds me out a bit better

feral verge
#

hp curios 2x, stam curio 1x

spice veldt
#

solution: don't play any other class except psyker, get 100k plasteel, dump it all onto curios, and then get nothing absolutely worth using at the end of it all

cosmic sigil
#

This week im trying tg too

feral verge
#

i had 62k plasteel

#

i tried upgrading all my toughness curios

cosmic sigil
#

I have 62 plasteel

feral verge
#

that [put me down to 45k

spice veldt

i can afford to use 3x toughness and kinetic shield because I have a focused channeling trauma to save me if I ever get caught out by 10 ragers or I need to revive

and no toughness curios left to upgrade

shadow surge

spice veldt

with that high damage stat, you don't really need infested since you need roughly a +6% damage boost from somewhere to one-shot poxwalkers

aka two warp charges or running warp unleashed

ill swap to flak then

smh didn't even know the perks for your weapon

spice veldt

#

smh

#

I prefer having at least +unarmoured on my trauma to one-shot dreg bruisers (450 hp) without having to pick either warp battery or warp unleashed

#

since even at 80% damage, you'll need an 18.4% damage boost from somewhere to one-shot them

#

so 4 warp charges alone won't cut it

#

I run warp unleashed, but I'm also too lazy to manage my warp charges and I run a low damage stat trauma, so having +unarmoured is nice for that consistency
