#

in this first part i was having a goddamn stroke cuz my isp was sabotaging me

#

i was living in fear of the bursters

spice veldt
#

if only you had the trauma staff; then you wouldn't be living in FEAR

lunar hollow
#

i'll live however i want u cant tell me what to do

spice veldt
#

continue using your "reliable" vet nades then

#

that plague ogryn spawn at the midevent surprised me cuz I never knew that bosses could spawn there

lunar hollow
#

i did

#

it just doesnt happen very often

#

cuz normally the AI director spends a shit load of points in the areas directly before it

#

i was wishing it was a beast of nurgle cuz then i couldve basically 1-magged it if i got behind it

karmic delta
#

Your game looks so potato

#

potato mod from Nexus?

spice veldt
#

ur a potato

#

pretty much

#

you can get that look by editing some lines in your user_settings.config

#

specifically these lines

#

lower values correspond to a lower quality as far as I can tell

#

i also have the lod stuff set low

karmic delta
#

Respect that grind for more FPS soldier 🫡

karmic delta
lyric burrow
#

dudes playing on 400 FPS

spice veldt
#

i haven't been using weapon charms so that I don't know

#

i think they should show up

halcyon trail
#

homies anyone know if the mk5 dueling sword is any good

lyric burrow
#

in comparison to force swords no

#

on its own yeah its fine

spice veldt
halcyon trail
#

heard from my friend that apparently you could one shot mutants

#

idk if thats a lie or not or if its perk based

#

since im not able to do it on my mk5

spice veldt
#

duelling swords have good block cost and mobilility; they have mediocre single-target and below-average hordeclear

#

oh, your friend is probably referring to the Deimos MK IV force sword

lyric burrow
#

yeah 99% chance he means deimos

halcyon trail
#

right, figured as such

karmic delta
halcyon trail
#

ty for clearing stuff up kings

spice veldt
lyric burrow
#

it has decent horde clear on the heavies with stuff like rampage

spice veldt
#

4 warp charges and warp unleashed with an 80/80/80 dmg/finesse/first target deimos

karmic delta
#

but the sabers are all trumped by the force swords currently

spice veldt
#

at 75% peril, that would've been a oneshot

halcyon trail
#

also what does this mean again

lyric burrow
#

crit chance

halcyon trail
#

purg staff

#

ah

#

any good on a purg?

lyric burrow
#

yeah its ideal with warp flurry

white sky
#

They still haven't fixed the warp nexus text?

lyric burrow
#

somehow lol

spice veldt
#

the specific mechanics are that you gain a stack at 20/40/60/80% peril thresholds; each stack grants 5% crit chance at t4

lyric burrow
#

yeah its up to 25% iirc

#

er

#

20

spice veldt
#

crits apply two soulblaze stacks instead of one, so that's why it's pretty good on purg

halcyon trail
#

👍

spice veldt
#

and the other blessings are pretty meh so there's not much competition

frozen osprey
#

@lunar hollow can i have a hug

lunar hollow
lunar hollow
#

cat

#

trauma staff gaming

spice veldt
#

that's what I like to see

manic halo
#

I just met a guy who everytime he was about to blow up as psyker he would moan into the mike "imma blow~"

spice veldt
#

most well-adjusted psyker

lunar hollow
#

hot

cosmic sigil
#

Getting a shitty purple at the end of a hi5sg is not something i thought I could see. And here I am...

karmic delta
#

Why I stay away from heresy diff

manic halo
#

imma do that shit now

#

cause thats jkust funny

#

Question for my siblings

#

what does warp nexus do???

manic halo
#

damage?

spice veldt
#

crit chance

manic halo
#

thank u subling

#

WHAT

#

thats crazy

#

thank u

spice veldt
#

that zealot knows what's good

#

bless their heart

lunar hollow
#

that zealot understood

spice veldt
#

yeah, this is the second time that warp nexus' description has been broken

#

they broke it one time, fixed it, then somehow broke it again

white sky
#

I want to like the trauma Staff but in practice i do not

spice veldt
#

well i don't like you >:(

white sky
#

I can live with that

manic halo
#

Im getting on the trauma staff trainb

karmic delta
#

I remember when one of the description for the blessings is just straight up broken

karmic delta
manic halo
#

lemme post my staff tell me if its good pls siblings

#

or i will blow

white sky
#

The alt fire just isn't pleasing to aim

lunar hollow
#

trauma staff users the moment anyone brings up stairs in a conversation

#

if only it didnt like

lunar hollow
#

completely fucking break

spice veldt
#

trauma users are weakened by the mere presence of grate stairs

karmic delta
#

you jsut have to REALLY REALLY REALLY be precise xd

lunar hollow
#

i love insta-detting bursters in risky situations

spice veldt
#

simply be 20 meters away from everything

white sky
#

Right now I'm a Deimos Purgatus psyker

lunar hollow
#

either i look like a hero

#

or i get to watch someone fucking fly away

manic halo
#

Game fucked me over hard mostly on the blessings but these is the stat distribution you want correct?
\

spice veldt
lunar hollow
#

some people like quell speed over warp res as a dump stat

#

but honestly i use trauma staff once-twice before putting it away

spice veldt
karmic delta
#

Warp resist could be better

candid lava
karmic delta
#

that quell speed is awesome

lunar hollow
#

its better for spamming

spice veldt
manic halo
#

trauma staff causes me to blow so much compared to other staffs

spice veldt
#

oh wait

#

i read that the wrong way around

manic halo
lunar hollow
#

more warp res = more time before you have to quell

#

so if ur running like flurry/inner tranq u get more spam

karmic delta
#

nice roll

spice veldt
#

some builds like inner tranq warp flurry have a lot of uptime, so the relative time cost in quelling is not that much

#

and the difference between 80% quell speed and 60% quell speed is 0.5 seconds when quelling from 100% to 0%

#

so it's not too bad

manic halo
#

What should I swap blazing spirit out with

karmic delta
#

Rending Shockwave

manic halo
#

FUCK

lunar hollow
#

rending shockwave if u want people to hit crushers

#

or uh

manic halo
#

i gotta find that still

lunar hollow
#

focused channeling

#

if ur cool

#

historitor is not cool.

karmic delta
lunar hollow
karmic delta
#

I have yet to find Focused also 😭

lunar hollow
#

i gotta get my rescues penance y'know

manic halo
#

I only ever get focused

#

I did get the crit blessing

#

or whatever

spice veldt
lunar hollow
#

only need 123 more

karmic delta
spice veldt
#

focused channeling is nice because it prevents ranged attacks from staggering you out of your sprint

spice veldt
#

so you can just freely sprint-slide into enemies and practically extend the range of your trauma against ranged patrols

#

and play a lot more aggressively into them

#

the few days when they removed sprinting from staff casting was actually so sad

#

having to slowly crawl my way up to a ranged patrol

karmic delta
#

Brain bursting while sprinting is so funny

lunar hollow
#

hi int consignment yard

karmic delta
#

actual Psyker buff

lunar hollow
#

oh boy

karmic delta
#

AND WE GOT NERFED AGAIN

spice veldt
#

the ability to sprint and slide with staffs/BB is so extremely nice

lunar hollow
#

3 psyker lobby

#

yoooo

spice veldt
#

flex on them

lunar hollow
#

v*idstrike

#

ew

spice veldt
#

show them the light

lunar hollow
#

im gonna det bursters right on them

#

trauma op

spice veldt
#

i wish explosions did push bursters

#

for ultimate trolling potential

#

just pushing bursters right into teammates

karmic delta
#

Thats Surge players

#

uuugghhh

spice veldt
#

TRUE

#

ACTUALLY TRUE

#

I can recall three occasions on which a burster was pushed into me by a surge psyker

#

though only one of which resulted in actual damage

#

surge psykers really do put the fear of god into me

karmic delta
#

Playing with our hearts and minds right now ong

#

LET ME PUSH THE POXBURSTER

spice veldt
#

surge psykers preventing me from pushing the burster and letting them detonate

white sky
#

I'm ngl I enjoy Surge

#

Why you fear it?

#

Lightning go brrrt

spice veldt
#

it's not the staff itself I fear

#

it's the pub psykers that I fear

candid lava
#

Zapp stick comes with higher responsibility... Gotta pay attention.

white sky
#

Have to anyway

#

I think tonight I will penance hunt on me psyker

spice veldt
white sky
#

Fuckin lmao

#

I always seem em stagger backwards when surged

spice veldt
#

i guess it's because of the burster being pushed into the sides of that container or something

#

actually tilting experience

manic halo
#

I SWEARE

white sky
manic halo
#

I still cry about the fact that the crit blessing don't proc on alt fires

white sky
#

It and Purgatus are my favorites atm

spice veldt
manic halo
#

I don't want that blessing gone its not enough I want it dead

silent coral
#

Is something up with rending shockwaves? I swear i can "feel" the impat on brittleness on all my other weapons like can opener ripper but i feel like trauma staff with shockwaves is having like no impact on damage

spice veldt
#

trauma already deals 100% to every armour type except Infested

manic halo
#

thats because trauma already does 100% damage

spice veldt
#

so Trauma itself gains no benefit from rending shockwave

lyric burrow
#

its not a huge diff its for your teammates really

spice veldt
silent coral
#

so i built a staff with like damage amp then...should have just gone for blazing spirit build

manic halo
#

Look if the surge blessing at LEAST worked on the void strike alt fire I would be happpy

meager plinth
#

it does tho?

manic halo
#

it DOES what

spice veldt
#

it works on voidstrike's RMB

manic halo
#

thats fucked up

#

I didn;t knoiw

spice veldt
#

yeah so it's just trauma that it doesn't work on

#

discrimination against the trauma staff

lyric burrow
#

and void still mid af

silent coral
lyric burrow
#

oh i love it '

#

it just feels weaker than the others

white sky
#

Voidstrike is so fun to use tho

#

It feels good to shoot (until it doesn't kill what you're aiming at)

#

Also the M1 feels stronger?

#

Placebo maybe

silent coral
spice veldt
#

voidstrike is an actually balanced weapon

#

so it has finite cleave (6 max cleave when fully charged)

#

compared to Purg or Trauma which both have infinite cleave

safe crystal
#

Its clearly too weak, gib buffs

white sky
#

how bad is my feat selection? trying out T1 perk 1 with quicken to see if i like it

#

otherwise i normally use quietitude

spice veldt
#

you're prob going to have to brain burst a lot to quickly stack up warp charges

#

as a warning, Essence Harvest does not stack

lyric burrow
#

what are you using

safe crystal
#

Essence harvest doesnt stack, so quicken doesnt do much

white sky
#

Oh

#

Rip

#

Quietitude it is

spice veldt
#

10/10

lyric burrow
#

shield goated

white sky
#

Shield just seems very useful cause I keep my peril high

#

Flayer is nice for free warp charges

spice veldt
#

yeah, it's nice to have that for warp charge upkeep

#

so you can run Aura with that

#

instead of having to run communion

lyric burrow
#

memes ogryns randomly too

white sky
#

Agreed, not a massive fan of communion. Lacerations is cool but idk

#

It feels boss dependant?

#

As in only massively benefits when a boss is around

spice veldt
#

pretty much

lyric burrow
#

lacerations main issue is i could just kill it withj WU

#

esp if i have WB

#

for non bosses

white sky
#

I swap back and forth between battery and flayer a lot

#

They both feel excellent to use imo

spice veldt
#

i assume for the brain burst breakpoints

lunar hollow
#

communion lets me brainburst stuff and 99% of the time reliably 1 tap stuff u gotta have battery + WU to hit the bp on

spice veldt
#

I don't really brain burst that much or use ascendant blaze with purg, so I'm pretty much confined to either Communion + Battery or Aura + Flayer, and I much prefer the CD reduction over the brain burst breakpoints

lunar hollow
#

the main time that particularly comes up is flamers

#

because sometimes u kinda cant just hold W and dodgeslide around the flames

ornate hamlet
#

I don't like that you can't just magically open yourself to more peril like you can quell it

#

It's like

#

It's easier to push a demon out of your head than to let it in

#

I know it's done for gameplay, but it's so weird

lunar hollow
#

2 shotting crushers with BB

#

iirc

spice veldt
#

yeah, I actually do wish we could just shoot up to 100% peril on a button press

#

that would be so nice

#

god, getting back to 100% toughness in just 4 seconds

#

(would be totally balanced)

lunar hollow
#

i mean vet can go from 0-100% in half a second

spice veldt
#

tbf, we do have warp absorption

#

just that we don't have weapons that can take full advantage of it

candid lava
#

Got an Illisi sword with 50-ish % Peril Resist - i takes 5 special taps to go to 100% peril and they come out in a second 😄

lunar hollow
#

i should run essence harvest with communion and flayer and never BB

#

my toughness bar is wholly determined by RNG

ornate hamlet
#

I forgot to do the vet weeklies before the reset

#

no monet

lunar hollow
#

i got cucked out of so much damage

#

the other psyker had a purg staff cosmetic but was running trauma

#

he and the void psyker would literally always shoot whatever i was fighting

#

and would knock it out of my fucking swings

spice veldt
#

i had a grenadier gauntlet ogryn who did the same

lunar hollow
#

like wtf is wrong with you

spice veldt
#

kept fucking knocking down shooter patrols and causing my horizontal swings to whiff

lunar hollow
#

im killing the enemies GO LOOK SOMEWHERE ELSE

#

grrrrrr

#

i dont need u to do trauma explosions at my fucking feet

lyric burrow
#

just kill them faster

lunar hollow
#

and please god STOP blinding me

#

the void is exploding IN MY FACE and in this scenario i don't want that

manic halo
#

warp absorbtion worth using at all?

lyric burrow
#

although people look like they are struggling in melee

#

sometimes

manic halo
#

also has anyone actually met a psyker who uses psykinetics aura

lunar hollow
#

well i was never struggling in melee that game

lyric burrow
#

i wont prioritize it though

spice veldt
#

that's fair just to make sure your teammates don't die

candid lava
#

Whenever I detonate a fully charged trauma in the face of a teammate to kill two poxies they're already owning, I think "Aaah, I helped..." in the male Beloved voice... 😄

manic halo
#

I have never uysed it

#

does it effect the person using it or only allies

lunar hollow
#

aura is pretty ok

#

if the psyker ult did like

#

anything else

spice veldt
#

i recall an instance of another psyker using psyk's aura with kinetic barrage, and we recharged each other's ult pretty quickly

#

bitch what

lunar hollow
#

i would probably run it

spice veldt
#

psyker's ult is so good

lyric burrow
#

which one is aura

spice veldt
#

protects you against dogs and trappers

lunar hollow
#

its so fucking

lyric burrow
#

is that ult recharge

lunar hollow
#

USELESS

spice veldt
#

ye

#

it affects you and teammates in coherency

lunar hollow
#

im never gonna need it more than once every fucking century

manic halo
#

thats pog

lyric burrow
#

i think i have a friend who uses it

manic halo
#

I have used it so save teamates being eaten by dogs behind walls

spice veldt
#

but the psyker with psyk's aura has to be the one to get the kill for the CDR to apply

manic halo
#

thus

#

it is the best ault

spice veldt
#

psyker's ult is such a good defensive ult

lunar hollow
#

i dont give a fuck about saving teammates

lyric burrow
#

its def good

lunar hollow
#

just dont get caught smh

manic halo
#

I am going to use warp absorbtion

#

and you can't STOP me

lyric burrow
#

the only one def better than it is vets but his is also broken

manic halo
#

it is hidden META

#

and I know it

lunar hollow
#

psyker is like the least useful ult to me

#

all the other ones are like

#

pretty much use straight off cooldown

#

i just kinda chill with the psyker one cuz like

#

oh boy i knocked stuff down

lyric burrow
#

i would say its better than at least ogryns

lunar hollow
#

that was cool

#

ogryns is 1000% better in every case

spice veldt
#

ogryn's ult looks more useful to me

lunar hollow
#

except for a trapper being in a horde and you can't move

spice veldt
#

just by virtue of being able to knock ogryns around

lunar hollow
#

ogryn can knock an entire screen's worth of enemies around

#

reposition out of a bad scenario

#

etc

spice veldt
#

but being able to protect yourself against dogs and being a quick quell is extremely nice

manic halo
lunar hollow
#

20% attack speed for 5 seconds is funny

candid lava
#

AND it gives you melee swing speed to boot...

manic halo
#

ITS A BAD THING

lyric burrow
#

thats true but AB can also clear a large portion of a horde and it deals with disablers

lunar hollow
#

unless everyone is running like knife/dclaw/shield

lyric burrow
#

barrage is also nice if theres a bunch of elites and whatnot

spice veldt
lunar hollow
#

u can put 6 crushers on their ass in an insant

#

see

#

what ogryns dont think of

#

is that you can cancel the charge at any point

crystal jolt
lunar hollow
#

so what i do is charge for like 5 meters

lyric burrow
#

tbh thats my biggest issue with ogryns is half the time i see it used its just knocking poxwalkers around

manic halo
lunar hollow
#

and stop it

#

and just kill the stuff faster

lyric burrow
#

unless i needed to get to a teammate

#

that was far away

lunar hollow
#

me charging 60 meters just to resurrect a teammate the moment a flamer shoots at their downed body, instantly killing them before they can get out of the fire:

#

i got u up pal

crystal jolt
#

i've only run all the way through an unstoppable charge if its for getting to a downed teammate or there's extra elites behind the other elites i've already knocked over.

lyric burrow
#

ogryns feats for the charge feel super mid sadlyh

crystal jolt
#

well yeah

lyric burrow
#

i might be forgetting some

lunar hollow
#

unstoppable is 100% BASED

candid lava
lyric burrow
#

like the bleed one

crystal jolt
#

one of them is dogshit, one of them is ok, one of them is great

#

that's the case for most of the ogryn feats

lyric burrow
#

i just take the one that doubles the range

lunar hollow
#

unstoppable basically lets u see a whole pack of gunners hiding behind 2 bulwarks

#

and ur just like

#

fuck ur shields im goin IN

candid lava
lunar hollow
#

u can do basically any dive u want on ogryn with ur fatass hp bar and confident strike

#

its so beautiful

lyric burrow
#

doesnt he have a bleed stacks on charge feat

#

but its super ass

crystal jolt
#

ogryns have at most 2 options when it comes to their feat column choices.

lyric burrow
#

or did i just get whooshed

lunar hollow
#

bleed is bad on everything

#

the only thing it does any considerable damage to is unyielding

#

and even then like

crystal jolt
#

he has 3 bleed feats that are all equally bad

lunar hollow
#

u could just kill it faster with other stuff

candid lava
lyric burrow
#

yeah i saw somebody say the bleed grenades were decent and then i saw the stacks did like 2 damage per tick

#

and i was like that is not worth even if i have 4 and can regen them

#

id rather use blazing spirit illisi

ornate hamlet
#

Bleed grenades are like

candid lava
ornate hamlet
#

So underwhelming

white sky
ornate hamlet
#

Wait what

#

You're telling me the grenade itself applies bleed

lyric burrow
#

yeah

white sky
#

Does that surprise you?

lyric burrow
#

the hit

#

does

spice veldt
cosmic sigil
#

bleed nades are superior

ornate hamlet
#

Considering the stacks I see from the explosion I'm not particularly hopeful, but

cosmic sigil
#

no

#

you need to throw 2 nades

ornate hamlet
#

Let me inhale some hopium and head to the psychodelikanium

cosmic sigil
#

so that you max the stacks

#

lemme

lyric burrow
#

i dont think its worth still given how good vet can be at deleting elites anyway

#

might be fun though

candid lava
candid lava
cosmic sigil
#

no you can just do that to packs of ogryns

#

2 nades will make them proce each other

lyric burrow
#

grenade build with vet sounds fun actually

cosmic sigil
#

then you equip a weapon with flak and or unyielding to destroy mixed hordes and / or ogryns

candid lava
cosmic sigil
#

and most of all the bigger they are works as well

cosmic sigil
#

@viral solstice has videos about it

ornate hamlet
#

Okay, so bulwarks and reapers are very vunerable to bleed

#

I was trying it on poxwalkers because I dared assume the AoE weapon was to deal with multiple smaller enemies

spice veldt
lyric burrow
#

its probably mid on poxwalkers

#

id imagine

cosmic sigil
spice veldt
candid lava
#

very mid, they die too fast for the stacks to actually ramp up, same as flamer/purg staff

cosmic sigil
#

grenades are used for big targets / stacking pf tbh

#

it's wasted on hordes

candid lava
#

and the occasional revive mid action

cosmic sigil
#

indeed

lyric burrow
#

ill toss them if theres a ton of shit going on and we just need some CC

#

also decent for revive

#

yeah

ornate hamlet
#

Yeah, at this point I basically delegate them to CC and revives

cosmic sigil
#

yeah, better than doing nothing

manic halo
#

knife psker is a real build

cosmic sigil
#

but no, you can delete pack of crushers

ornate hamlet
#

Pretty good to have a get out of jail card for laggy-ass bitch-ass motherfucking poxhounds

cosmic sigil
#

and waste no bullet

lyric burrow
#

knife is one of the few weapons ive barely touched

#

i should get around to that

candid lava
#

What constitutes a knife psyker build?

white sky
#

They removed lights out because it wasn't working right and poxhounds are still the most wildly buggy thing in existence

candid lava
#

Also - why?

lyric burrow
#

poxhouds are simply

#

interesting

cosmic sigil
#

wtf are you talking about

lyric burrow
#

id use knife on zealot or vet

#

for fun

white sky
#

Because AI detection radius was bugged

cosmic sigil
#

it's back since february or march

white sky
#

It was re implemented when it worked

manic halo
#

they call me a mad man

white sky
#

Yes, man, that still means it was removed for a bit

spice veldt
lyric burrow
#

its not the worst thing ive ever seen

manic halo
#

Its a build beyond your understand

spice veldt
#

get this person into an asylum

lyric burrow
#

its also not the best thing ive ever seen

#

hes just RPing what a insane psyker would pick for feats

manic halo
#

You all will joiun me

#

Ill use wrack and ruin

#

don't tempt me

lyric burrow
#

ok now youve gone too far

#

whats next mind in motion

manic halo
#

its already done

spice veldt
#

it's not terrible as an infinite cleave option if you're not running trauma/purg

manic halo
#

im running gun psyker

#

im beyond your puny attempts at understanding

#

this is my world and you all live in it

spice veldt
#

hmm, i wonder what voice you use

#

the mind ponders

manic halo
#

the gun psyker build

candid lava
#

Mg12 on a psyker 😄

manic halo
#

its goated

candid lava
#

I believe you, pal... And you scare me a little...

manic halo
#

and keeps me safe at night

FEAR ME FEAR ME

#

whoops....

#

it just takes one bad day

#

one bad damnation run

#

and you all will end up like me

candid lava
#

Mahlk got my week started with 1 T4 blessing, ACROSS ALL 4 CHARACTERS.
And the highest stats rating he had was 360, ACROSS ALL 4 CHARACTERS.

#

nothing to spend Mehlk bucks on, across all 4 chaaah, you get the point...

meager plinth
#

Make a fifth character then

lyric burrow
#

ive gotten good luck with melk recently he gives me at least one good t4 blessing

#

each reset

#

like 3 out of last 5 times

Knife psyker is real

lunar hollow
#

yeah. really shit

manic halo

you fools don't understand

meager plinth

Telekine knives are in the files

yes

Is knife even viable post-malice? Hahaha

#

Hope Hadron feeling nice today

candid lava
#

The dreaded knife zealot is a stereotype for a reason.

lunar hollow
#

knife zealots are few and far between in my experience nowadays

#

or they at least do the courtesy of using flamer for 90% of the game

candid lava
#

yeah, but at one point knife/shotgun was the meta

#

some people made some YT vids and it took off...

restive slate
#

Run fast, get poxhound at least 3 miles from the nearest teammate

candid lava
#

it was a thing...

lunar hollow
#

darktide youtubers are the worst thing to ever happen to this community

almost all of them are fucking idiots

there's like one good one

that puts effort

here is what im workin with

meager plinth
#

I mean, running fast with a knife IS exhilarating

lunar hollow
#

if u see anything with the name claysthetics in the general vicinity of it ignore it

pallid smelt
#

what should i change?

lunar hollow
#

its probably wrong

candid lava

#

I like only one Darktide Youtuber now, Ryken I believe. Does good number crunches and explanations

candid lava
lunar hollow
#

clay has absolutely terrible ideas every time he tries to tell u what build to use

crystal jolt
candid lava
#

And Reginald - he does good Zealot vids.

crystal jolt
#

his vids are gud

ChocoB is scarily good haha

and half of his drivel is him bitching about forums user or something

reginald is good if u like to feel like a hipster who uses bad weapons

Ryken made me try the MG4 and MG1A Lasgun and I actually liked it haha

meager plinth
pallid smelt
spice veldt
#

if you're just using it as a oneshot stick against mutants, you'd probably just stick on unstable power

lunar hollow
#

i would never in good faith tell someone to use an ironhelm over a crucis or put it on the same tier

restive slate
#

Is ChocoB in Darktide server??

spice veldt
#

a weapon's overall level has no bearing on its performance

#

it's just a summary statistic

candid lava
spice veldt
#

a weapon could have 550 rating but absolutely terrible perks, blessings, and/or stat distribution

lunar hollow
#

at best its kinda sad if u get a 60% in damage

candid lava
spice veldt
#

that would be extremely sad

lunar hollow
#

ironhelm is a worse crucis if you have any idea how to move your mouse around or hit the jump key

restive slate
#

I'm using Ironhelm cause all my Crucis rolls have been shit

manic halo
#

knife PSYKER IS REAL

#

FEAR ME FEAR ME

lunar hollow
#

the base moveset is more awkward and the special does less damage

pallid smelt
#

so keep deflector and replace precog with slaughter?

lunar hollow
#

if the weapon's special like

meager plinth
lunar hollow
#

did more cleave damage

manic halo
#

ye get salughter

lunar hollow
#

hell if u made the thing have better cleave damage falloff across the board

#

it would be a viable alternative

spice veldt
lunar hollow
#

but rn its just crucis with training wheels

meager plinth
#

It’s just bad habits for crucis

candid lava
lunar hollow
#

significantly worse for ironhelm than crucis

#

crucis just requires slaughterer/chastise to 1 tap a crusher/mauler

manic halo
#

mind flayer knife psyker

restive slate
#

I'd rather Ironhelm special just have unlimited cleave, like a power sword... but hammer

manic halo
#

its real

lunar hollow
#

i dont think ironhelm can 1 shot a crusher

manic halo
#

try it siblings

meager plinth
#

I’m actually genuinely curious on how you play with the knife now

restive slate

I'm not your sibling, cousin

you use the knife’s punch??

YES

meager plinth
#

What are your blessings

manic halo
#

Im not in game anymorew

#

but it deez ones

#

sometimes I like to use my ult so it stunns something

#

then run behind it

#

and fully charged back stab it

meager plinth
#

Idk the knife blessing icons, what is that first one

manic halo
#

executor

#

and then i have ruthless back stab

#

which is where is do the ult run behind and stab combo

spice veldt
#

menace

#

throwing pocket sand and then stabbing people from the back

meager plinth
#

Unhinged I love it

manic halo
#

Mind flayer punch somemthing to death

#

THEN judge me

meager plinth
#

This is fascinating, you play haz5 hi-int shock troops with it?

manic halo
#

I like doing it with everything

meager plinth
#

I’m glad ur having fun tho

#

It’s what matters in the end

meager plinth
#

A smooch uwugryn

spice veldt
#

that's sooo romantic

meager plinth
#

The utility it provides is really good imo

#

30m range, decent stagger

spice veldt
#

yeah, and it's a form of stagger that doesn't require you to go near the enemy (zealot, ogryn)

#

which is nice against trappers

#

the main downside is that sometimes the stagger doesn't work at all, which seems to happen if you ult while getting hit

#

which is why you see me going around that corner despite ulting into the trapper

#

because I don't want to risk my ult not working and me getting trapped into a rager

manic halo
#

my gamme crashed like two seconds later

#

so i think im pushing the boundries too far

#

knife psyker

#

#

@meager plinth I have evidence of knife psyker use

spice veldt
#

pro gaming that was too powerful for darktide to handle

lunar hollow
#

i love getting games where 2 mouthbreathers cant fight a boss

#

and then a chaos spawn appears at the tunnel section of chasm logistratum

#

fun

meager plinth
#

Were you doing serpentines to dodge the sniper?

manic halo
#

ah

#

yes

restive slate
#

I find Chaos Spawn really easy to kill with a good team... and the worst boss that can wipe everyone with a bad team

spice veldt
#

it's a boss that you actually have to interact with instead of being trivially dodged (plague ogryn) or just being ran away from (bonbon)

meager plinth
#

It’s speed forces the team to work together quickly to deal with it, you cannot let 1 player alone with it compared to the other bosses

no matter how good the illi sword is i find the knife just has more to offer

i like this sibling

they think like me

knife is just better

spice veldt

and maybe you tend to use it against the enemies that take extra melee damage (dogs, flamers, mutants)

thick carbon
#

on the mk5, the downswing does like 600 weakspot damage to the mutant

spice veldt

yeah, the mutie takes 3.75x melee damage

weird lol

nvm it takes 3x melee damage

whats the best way to deal with the chasm boss? I find everytime i fight this boss we get through one cycle of his shield and by the time hes back up everyone is dead to shooters or split up by elites

Well at least 2 guys has to focus their attention on the boss

yeah, sometimes you just need the ease of use and sweeping hordeclear of a flamethrower

i havent played it much recently so idk

ornate hamlet

I do believe he was using the cool-ass cape too

if it was a 4 man premade then u certainly didnt play with me

spice veldt

probably

#

i assume that I'm blocked by some people here because I can throw extremely hard sometimes

Im pretty sure i havent played with any of the regulars here, other than Tyr a few days ago

I've kept mental notes of the names on the scoreboards people post here, and other than the super generic ones that tend to underperform, i havent seen anyone in my games

white sky
#

What makes the obscurus bad compared to the other force swords?

spice veldt
#

obscurus and deimos have a light stab that deals 2x the damage of the usual sweeping lights; however, on the Obscurus, it is the 3rd light past the infamously shit 2nd light

#

the deimos also has a heavy stab

white sky
#

Oh lmao

white sky
#

I really enjoy the deimos

spice veldt
#

the special of obscurus/deimos is nice but also dangerous to use because it locks you in, and the deimos having that heavy stab pretty much sidesteps the need to ever use the special except for the stagger and flak bonus

#

the illisi has a power sword special without the horrible mobility that the power sword has

white sky
#

I use the special specifically on big boys like crushers or bulwarks when I can get around em

white sky
#

I just like the Deimos moveset way more

spice veldt
#

p much

white sky
#

If I could sweep on the Deimos it'd be 10/10

spice veldt
#

I'm fine with the obscurus' moveset, but the deimos is significantly easier to make use of, and it has a more accessible light stab and the heavy stab

white sky
#

Deimos just feels like Saltz rapier without a pistol

spice veldt
#

and it doesn't have a shitty uppercut

white sky
#

It's very nice

spice veldt
#

very pointy

#

i can't believe they gave an uppercut to a finesse weapon

white sky
#

I haven't used obscurus much lately if I'm honest, only vaguely remember it from months ago

spice veldt
#

i mained the obscurus for 400-ish hours before the new force swords dropped because I've always liked the infinite dodges

white sky
#

Is that intended?

safe crystal
#

I still have mine peepoComfy

spice veldt
#

presumably

white sky
#

I was playing with the force swords and I was like "there's no way infinite dodge was intended"

spice veldt
#

it's a weird case because it has short dodges but also has one of the faster cooldowns between continuous dodges

safe crystal
#

Oh wait shit

spice veldt
#

infinite dodges is probably intended, but it's also not balanced at all lemayo

safe crystal
#

This was my last one i used

white sky
#

I haven't been touched by a boss since I learned Infinite dodges existed

#

Nor most enemies for that matter

#

And they work so well with Deimos pokes cause of the range

spice veldt
#

I think I sold my old obscurus

#

or gave it up for the t3 slaughterer

safe crystal
spice veldt
#

am sorry but I had to do what I had to do

white sky
#

I'm still playing around with staves to see which I really really like

#

All I can tell is some are good for some circumstances

#

Which is good, but weird cause when I play Vet I use like 1 gun and 1 melee

spice veldt
#

and none of psyker staffs are really an analog to a bullet gun

#

i don't really like any of psyker's current staffs because they all have charge secondaries, but I like trauma and purg the most because the worth you get out of each secondary counteracts the shitty ass charge

cosmic sigil
#

It feels like using a helbore...

#

I wish the purgatus had the same mechanic as the flamer. I'm glad that it's not the other way around.

#

If only they had a charge lmb / quell rmb like plasma

white sky
#

It feels bad to me

burnt maple
#

you can quell using the reload key, is that not what you mean?

cosmic sigil
#

I had to move the reload key to capslock on my keyboard. Felt easier to use while moving around

burnt maple
#

also, a good tip is getting a force sword you like, and any rank of Deflector blessing on it, then get used to using it as a force shield, and you need to face gunners to block bullets

cosmic sigil
#

I would use a thumb button on my mouse if I had more than 2

burnt maple
#

you need to find a key you're comfortable with

#

you need to quell constantly as a psyker

cosmic sigil
#

Capslock is the best ATM I feel

burnt maple
#

if it works, it works

cosmic sigil
#

I may try something else hmm

#

Like reload on thumb and activate on capslock

spice veldt
#

I use 'V' as my quell since I have dodge on my shift

cosmic sigil
#

I have dodge on the mouse since vermintide. Now it's crouch + dodge

#

ok i just put blitz on capslock and reload quell on the wheel button, it's better in think

Greetings brain trust

burnt maple
#

Ask the other guy

fluid knot
#

Helps if you have BB on the mouse too

#

(on a button, not the damn wheel)

spice veldt
#

R locks you out of rightwards movement without some awkward placement from your other digits

late yew
fluid knot
# late yew Why???

Because its more efficient and you can leverage it much more frequently and effectively

spice veldt
#

depends on your keyboard and hand size

late yew
#

very small hands

spice veldt
late yew
#

no

spice veldt
#

yes

fluid knot
#

Yeah they do

#

Ever mis-timed your ult by like 0.000025s before?

#

I would say every milisecond counts

late yew
#

no

spice veldt
#

my reaction time is extremely shit, so minor improvements are the difference between me getting pounced or trapped

fluid knot
#

So you mean to tell me you've never accidentally exploded yourself by muckin up the timing?

#

Because we both know thats a fucken lie

late yew
#

how the fuck you can fuck up the timing of ult lmao

#

it is literally impossible

#

unless you are like 90 years old i suppose

fluid knot
#

Yeah.. enjoy your malice games holmes

late yew
#

You are just too bad

#

how the fuck cna you fuck u timing of F

#

You start seeing you exploding

#

you press F

#

how can you fuck it up?

fluid knot
#

I dont think you realise how stupid this looks to experienced psyker players lad..

late yew
#

Bitch, i am more experienced than you

fluid knot
#

Ofc you are KEKW_ogryn

late yew
#

what a fuckn clown you are

calm sapphire
fluid knot
#

It is not, but there will always be times where you're very close the edge, and if that isnt frequent in your gameplay, you're leaving a shitton of DPS on the table

spice veldt
#

my reaction time is average if I have nothing else to focus on

late yew
#

especially since you have some extra leeway considering you can go somewhat abouve 100

#

like with BB

spice veldt
#

it takes a decently long time for me to build up some good muscle memory to react to events properly

late yew
spice veldt
#

i mean my reaction time under absolutely no mental load is average

late yew
#

hm

#

interesting

spice veldt
#

but it is absolutely shit if I'm distracted by something else

#

e.g., I don't react to the sound cues of snipers well

late yew
spice veldt
#

20

calm sapphire
late yew
#

very weird

#

you are a fuckn baby

late yew
#

you should have good reactions

spice veldt
#

hence why I label my reaction time as shit

late yew
calm sapphire
late yew
calm sapphire
#

Though you can kinda guess the location of snipers most of the time if u play the map alot so it's never an issue for me to get sniper in da back

late yew
#

I get hit by the first shot a lot, when i am unaware of sniper presence

#

But if i know one is around, i never get hit

#

do you do "cool guys don't look at brainbusting" btw?

elfin nexus
#

all you have to do is just listen for the weird ACK sound the snipers make

late yew
#

Actually a good habit to have to keep awareness

spice veldt
late yew
#

Like when you BB someone who you know will die from that BB, you look around instead of looking at the target

late yew
spice veldt
#

it's in my vision, so I should've dodged it

#

and there was more than ample time to dodge it

calm sapphire
spice veldt
#

skill issue

ornate hamlet
olive ember
ornate hamlet
#

Is this good?

spice veldt
#

tbf human's reaction time is faster to sound than visual

calm sapphire
#

Also don't u love it when the audio cue doesn't play till they leave spawn KEKW_ogryn

spice veldt
#

just that for me, it's faster to recognize the visual cue of a god damn sniper's muzzle flash

olive ember
# ornate hamlet

Eh? If you are running a blazing crit build you can swap run n gun for nexus

late yew
# ornate hamlet

stats are good, 1 blessing is ok even if not optimal, another is trash

#

don't know about perks

safe crystal
# ornate hamlet

Perks arent great, blessings are eh. You can make a blazing spirit trauma with this but you'd need to ask Pygex about that

late yew
#

both seem bad

#

you spirit trauma you really want t4 nexus

safe crystal
#

Crit and nexus iirc

olive ember
#

But I’d honestly just reroll entirely ngl

late yew
#

Nah

#

Could make fine staff if youfind t4 nexus

olive ember
#

People who run blazing crit either have no clue what they are doing or are super good no in between

late yew
#

HOw you go ab out hunting for t4 lbesings?

#

upgrading to orange or to blue?

safe crystal
#

Upgrade into blue, if i dont get what i want, i start over

#

Unless its a really good base

olive ember
#

I go to orange on pretty much everything actually

#

For wte reason it’s almost always a t4 blessing on orange for me nowadays

elfin nexus
#

it feels like its a higher rate on orange

fluid knot
elfin nexus
#

yeah its been more common for a while now

fluid knot
#

Perks often add more to your DPS than blessings do

elfin nexus
#

just never the one you want

late yew
#

you all just lucky

safe crystal
#

Idk, i've just been really lucky with rolling whenever i feel like playing

#

I rolled these 2 back to back

#

Within 5 minutes of each other

late yew
#

i hate you

safe crystal
#

I rolled this 10 minutes after the Illisi patch as well

ornate hamlet
#

This is redundant

#

But I want it

safe crystal
#

Its a decent base, perks arent great, again

#

But the blessings are good

#

You can switch either one of them to slaughterer and it'll be great

#

Low warp res makes unstable a lot better as well

late yew
safe crystal
#

Oh, i already did

#

Just dont have a screenshot of how it is now

#

It has unstable 4

fluid knot
#

Blazing crit is funsies, set a whole horde on fire without using noob-tier purge staff

Not as good as Void wi/Surge though

#

Christ i adore that

oh damn, cosmetics are account wide
