DPS-wise, the special is only worth it against flak since it deals 200% damage to them (and 100% to everything else)
so l1->h2 against bosses
deimos's l1 deals 2x damage and its h2 deals 2.5x damage
what about brunts armory? spam that to get weapons with good base stats and upgrade or wait until he sells something proper?
Just got this. Pretty happy with it.
prob a mix of both
So I figured I'd learn it
brunt is where your dockets go if you've got some to spare
brunt is a machine that turns dockets into 300 base rating weapons
god damn
nah that's peddler 51/78
i hope the robot explodes
why
BOOM
thats not an elaboration
no
yes it is
Yeh. Still trying to get a good illisi.
so what perks and stats go well with a voidstrike staff? I'm thinking something like 313231 maybe?
Fatsharked 
You want uhhh enough damage to one-shot shooters and the rest can go fuck itself
Right now I'm trying to do blaze memes because I hate purgatus due to how boring and intrusive it is
You just throw flames on stuff until the hitmarkers tell you they're dead because you can't see jack fucking shit
Also the staff fixed itself, except it didn't because now it's dealing more damage
Oh wait, I put on WU
Okay, details
peepee poopoo pissbaby
But WU shouldn't give me over 350 from 301
Provided 301 is the intended damage, the gain rises to 331
350/301 is 1.16x so it's within the range
woohoo
Though it also means that I can set my perks to any idiotic thing I want 
is it just me or is Kinetic Flayer terribly inconsistent?
yeah very much if not running a high firerate weapon
So arcotash, how good did voidstrike end up being
same as usual
6 cleave limit except for when the server lags (which tbf happens a lot)
Gonna put trauma on the shelf now?
Trauma goated
So... how would you rate the staves?
Trauma/purg>surge/void
I think trauma and purg are a good bit better than surge and void
For me it is
S-Trauma
A-Surge, purgatus
B-Void
And surge and void id rank toughly even
Trauma might just be better than purge but im undecided
yeah for pub matches that's my ordering as well
Surge has more usable appliances than void thats why I rate it higher
Surge might be better i just play in pubs 95% of the time
ive tried running surge in elite res pubs
and the only use i found was making space to back up when theres 3 ragers around a corner
So i just end up meleeing everything or my surge doesnt get good use cause nobodys paying attention
something u can do with other staffs and not sacrifice all the damage
Why would you bring surge to elite resistance
If I was playing with people in here or something it would get good use
because there's less enemies but they take longer to kill
Yeah you could actually manage all the elites
and sometimes the vet decides that shooting elites is what u wanna do
and it does something
and then other times you will wait for a mutie to stand next to ur teammates in a horde, surge it, they ignore it for a full charge duration, and it grabs u anyways

If I wanna play elite resistance I go on my vet since randos can't be trusted to do their jobs
Its fine on psyker imo just not with the support weapon in a team that does not use the support
But trauma/deimos does fine unsurprisingly
You see, this is why I say that surge is a skill weapon, because at least I know when they can and can't be stunned
Think revo worked too
Surge staff coding is wonky, but when you know how fckt it is you can play around it and avoid those mishaps
u cant play around teammates ignoring the stun though
pub players have no counter
(on the flip side there are many cases where a surge user will stun something out of the reach of someone and basically waste their own time)
Thought you were talking about surging a mutie but it not getting stunned
oh no
i surged it
kept it still while it was within like 8 meters of 3 teammates
and the entire time they just didnt hit it
surge ends, im against a corner during a horde, get grabbed and almost die
Maybe they just brought a shovel and were physically unable to hit it? 
must be
Surely
i had a game two days ago where a surge psyker stunned a mutie like 15 meters away, that i couldnt reach because it was in the sightline of a bunch of shooters
and i had a thammer
i wasnt quite sure what he expect me to do
Guys I got a difficult decision to make... when my daughter grows older... should I introduce her into video games? Or should I spare her from all the incels?
Charge into it obv
shit yourself
i suppose
die
arco i think u were there for that one
i might not have seen it but i think i was yeah
Literally every pub I play as a thammer zealot and get matched with a surge psyker has this issue lol
the problem is the vast majority of fights vs a mutie dont have a surge staff
Just charge it 4head
my entire decision making is based on that majority of cases
u throw a surge staff in and now nobody knows what the other person is doing
Yep lol
he kept dragging
so slooowwww
This is me but with the situation where i tilted you yesterday with the bursters 
Plus the opposite happens, people ignore bursters assuming it'll get surged away and surge psyker is too busy stunlocking groaners
you've pissed me off more than any other person ive played with in a premade
i was almost like that roman general who died of a fucking stroke because of how mad he got
damn iceslow should get a trophy for that
Bonus points for an ogryn watching you 1 tap a mutie with the thammer, then hitting the next one with a box
wasnt a general
Throw a surge staff in and now you know that shit is gonna happen in wonky ways because you have an idiot with no braincells holding the nuclear codes to the Emperors toilet and he will detonate it at random moments when you least expect it
emperor valentinian
Dont worry, i uninstalled yesterday in anticipation for BG3 release 
Videogames helped me find a lot of cool people (not Josh) and helped me improve my English and knowing things that I normally wouldn't in a school environment, like "fuck you cocksucking bitch shitstain I hope your ass hair catches on fire and the only thing near you is clear alcohol", but it does bring its own downsides like being able to come across creepy people, scammers and redditors
You wont be seeing me in a while
inshallah
(good riddance)
TRUE
fuck u too
I think my life wouldn't have been better if I wasn't introduced to computers and videogames, but I also grew in a time when Tiktok, Facebook and those other annoying things weren't there yet
And you also come across Josh, don't forget Josh
Influencers and other mental retrogradation weren't excessively present in the internet yet and we also didn't have predatory mobile phone games preying on children
We had online PC games preying on children instead 
my list of priorities would be having her play without a mic and not play league of legends
Thank you mom, for not paying 5 dollars a month on a Runescape membership when I was 9
How old are you? About my age? 28? Because I think our time was the golden age
And yea, runescape the things we grinded xD
I was a crafter ranger xD
Good times
I grew up with people owning stuff like Nintendo 64, Playstation 1 and my first console was a Mega Drive
I think it was a great age to grow up in because computers were getting more prevalent at homes, but kids didn't have much bloat to deal with online
My first console was Playstation 1 playing gran turismo 1 and 2, collin mcray (Yes, my dad is a car freak)
Specially with dial-up
With dial-up we had to deal with sharing compressed music videos and incomplete audio files because the first person who copied the file didn't do it right or maybe copied a preview or whatever
So... what do I do
Well, honestly I don't know
But odds are neither do parents
After all, nothing truly prepares for having a child
"Hey Linn this is Sterling! She will guide you through the not to do's on the internet"
I'm not sure how to introduce someone to the internet today because it's wildly different from the internet back when I was introduced to it
Well, we were introduced with gameboys, consoles etc
Computers became more of a thing if you had one
Otherwise you became one of those filthy console warriors
My mother and my father had their own
And we don't talk about those
I used to play Heretic 2 and my mother's computer was slightly worse than my father's to the point it actually softlocked me because of a jump height thing
I couldn't grab a ledge and didn't know console commands or what a console even was
BUT
Where you from sterling?
One possibility I see, given how prevalent technology is nowadays, could be waiting for the teacher to give the class an assignment that involves the internet
It gives a goal and a motivation
Brazil
So instead of it being "uh... this is the internet", needing to do homework on it could be "this is Google, we type stuff here", "this is Word, we write stuff here", "this is Excel, the entire global market is sustained by its lifeforce" and so on
One of the biggest challenges for a non-teacher is finding a way to start things, I'd say
I'd be more like "This is doom 3, this was the shit back in the day"
I only know how to introduce someone to Python because I have the material for it and would follow my former teacher's subject order to the letter
You remind me of a russian girl I know xD she also went into programing
My condolences
Yea... she is having it rough currently...
Oh yeah, another thing I remembered
Ads
Ads to someone who doesn't know what they are can be indistinguishable from the rest of the page
Mature hmm hmm in your area
We older folk can spot ads from a mile away because we browsed thousands of pages across the years
A kid can see an ad for a shady MMO and just click it
Older folks... yea... we still young but feel so old in todays age
I'm not sure how other generations were technologically, but I feel like we grew up with a shitload of changes
Indeed
Probably the most any generation has seen since the war
I don't remember computer advancements back in the times of those punctured cards, so I can't say if they advanced similarly in 26 years
Oh yeah, the wars caused a lot
Oh oh, the Cold War
I sent you a friend request, would love to have more of these convos
Though it was some severe changes, not the level of wartime, which we should be very thankful for
Nah, that was'nt in my liftime an i got 4 on you
80s
No, I mean the Cold War also brought some scary technological advancement
Well.. to be fair, if you wanna be really pedantic about it, it never really ended but ho hum 
I think the internet was made then?
Ahh yes, it did indeed
Oh Dorf, was thinking about you, have a song: https://youtu.be/3k0LezNohJk

Full Scale is a 1998 release from Hip Hop duo Show and A.G. The EP features appearances from O.C., KRS-One, Big Pun, the Ghetto Dwellas as well as most members of their crew D.I.T.C. including Diamond D, Big L and Lord Finesse.
I like it, kinda reminds of of that Big Shug type of stuff, I'll add this to my collection
I want this model in-game but without the camo so badly
Already 3 marks of the force sword, but who knows maybe we get 4th. No clue what would it even do that deimos and ilissi doesn't though.
or maybe a slower less mobile one with longer reach
I mean more like a skin. I just love the look of it
they're called staffs
and the bolt staff would be amazing to have
nah i mean like drakefire pistols type thing
I'm like 99.9999% sure there's no such thing in 40k. closest thing is a melta
it's ok to implement things that aren't lore accurate
i dont think GW would allow anything not lore accurate unf
but ig yet another force sword is fine
Games Workshop would like to know your location
Florida
not to mention that the drakefire pistols were complete ass lmao
Ah carry on
GW stops pursuing
I don't like all the camos tbh
To me the special edition skins are the closest to something I really want to use, since they dye the weapon mostly black while retaining the metal and gold details
This just looks fucking cool
i mostly only end up using camos to color coordinate with a set
particularly if it doesnt otherwise change the model
the special edition skins are pretty good though. some of my favorite
the weapon specific ones that actually change the model are normally pretty good too, but the color changes (that often give you the shittiest model of the weapon family as the base) are pretty not great
ye
Based
perks on your currently held weapon affects DoTs
Ive debated buying some of the better ones
wait
this is a thing?
how have i never seen shock troop without high intensity before
aye
Imperial Edition
I'd say it's uncommon but yep it does exist
As for another Force Sword.. aint there a 2H version in the files we're menna see at somepoint?
potentially. along with variants of many staves. take datamines with grain of salt tho
It’s a shame that there isn’t a mortis skin for every weapon…considering we paid extra for it you’d think it’d have been on all the base weapons. I’d understand if DLC weapons came out and didn’t get it..but the base ones? All of em need it.
Yeah, it feels bad
I imagined, for example, the devil's claw would have it
It's a very basic weapon that can be put on any class
The chainsword has it, but not the eviscerator, the lasgun has it but not the laspistol, and so on
Everything would look great in a mortis skin. It’s edgy..this is 40k..the edgiest shit ever 😂
Gimme da skull skin
Also all staves have it, all force swords have it
Hell, two of the force swords released after the Imperial Edition and have a skin
Yeah, it’s as long it’s the same kinda weapon all skins will go on each version
give me a skull mace on zealot
Thankfully..cause if we had to buy skins for each MK I’d brain burst myself
something up with servers? my chat isn't working in-game
and getting matchmaking errors sometimes
I reset my router and pc yesterday when that happened and it fixed it
It’s not servers as far as I can tell cause I’m currently in game
Ofc, but a 2H sword feels somewhat likely on the face of it
Obviously more staves will be coming in the future as 4 is uhhh... lacking.. to put it lightly
2h force sword will be interesting
is this a datamine or something?
What if no-hander. Dancing Force Sword
A mind controlled weapon of any sort as a melee weapon would be sick
It has been deleted no? Tbh started using keepswinging for my 40.5 yo wrists
yoo this looks great
Keeps swinging and fullauto mods are fine imo, since they literally can save you from physical injury, lol, zealot knife build is a carpal tunnel boot camp
yea the problem with AFA is that you could make it swing faster than humanly possible with QQ spam or just mashing m1
Yeah. And I work in an office too. So I'm always on a computer -_-
Ye i know about that mod, but im talking about the ones that just basically hold down m1 for you, without doing some insane weapon switches
It's still possible to do the same trick with either a script or a macro on a mouse no?
the mod was a macro
Ohhh
I think there's nothing wrong with stuff like keepswinging
But earlier some guy was defending the mod that made your staff into a machine gun
That was some true delusion LOL
Not quell cancel
I admit that yersterday was less tiring because of it. And there's at least one drawback. You need to toggle it off to access your heavies.
Afaik it was reseting the animation when your attacks hit? Idk
I didnt read into it too much but I actually think that that is too much
im confused are you talking about stirling and the script he made?
You can just hold down m1, it will stop for that, just set it in options
(I'm talking about keepswinging)
what was his name so i can see what your talking about
But it doesnt really matter anyways cuz it's a single player game
the machine gun staff is something we can do without a macro
its not that hard
it just makes your fingers wanna die
How so? I configured it so that it keeps swinging as long as I hold m1.
you should hear and see what quell canceling the m1 on the fire staff is like
But there's am option to cancel it by attacking.
But If I cancel it, I need to toggle it back on
Ah, gotcha. What i did, i set my sidebutton to activate/turn it off. And set that heavy attacks and blocking stop it temporarily
Ahhhh
Well. I have 2 side buttons. M4 is for dodges and M5 is for the special
One or two more would have been perfect
You can m3
M3 is press wheel?
I put reload / quell on it
Ew
hi damn with purge staff is fun
I cant imagine holding down m3
killing an entire horde with never ending fire
I don't like having to quell by pressing r
here ya go.https://streamable.com/cu1nma
But I could change it back. I'm mostly a gun psyker
it not as bad as it remember it sounding, but dear god in a dark map its a perpetual flashbang
Or I could put the toggle on the r key
why would you do that to yourself
ATM it's X
for funsies
Well. You never really hold it down for a long period of time
i legit cant play purg build without 3rd person mode anymore, my eyes are thankful

I have it set for BB/grenade switch
But my mouse has a freewheel with a separate button behind it for M3
freewheel ew
It's selectable, and lets me spaz out with weapon switch I'm the elevators
i used to have a g500 i think
and that lets you switch to either
and i ended up just never using freewheel
It's an MX anywhere 2, also switchable
I require assistance! Don't play psyker at all and I don't know what to put on my stuff. Should I change riposte to something else?
change it to slaughterer
although tbh id take the deflector off that sword and try to get a new one when you can
perks and FT arent great
but itll be fine till you get a better one just change block efficiency to maniac
Alright then. What would be the best blessings and perks for the Illisis then?
maniac + flak is generally ideal if you aren't running a gun
maniac/flak and unstable power with slaughterer
if you dont like slaughterer/unstable then deflector is good
depending on how you use the sword you actually want low warp res but it depends on if you plan on using unstable or how often you charge
I'll be using it for hordeclear since of the nice sweep attacks it has
Yeah ig by how often you charge it meant if you dont mind being able to spam the charge less because you hit max peril
Its good for building peril and unstable power but downside is you cant spam it as hard
So up to you how much you care about getting to high peril fast
2nd perk is pretty flexible
for reference, special-heavy spam is the best hordeclear that you'll get from the illisi
you can run deflector or unstable or bloodthirsty or whatever
oh did you mean blessing
prob doesnt matter im sure everyone knows what you mean lol
New to the gaem, any psyker tips?
Brain Burst is safe to begin channeling at 97% peril and below; it is safe to activate force sword specials at 99% peril and below; it is safe to finish (but not begin) the cast of your force staffs at 99% peril and below
you actively quell more peril the higher the peril that you begin quelling from
also you can cancel the warp explosion with your ult
i actually didnt know that for quite a while
I only knew that cuz of Vermintide and Sienna's explosion mechanica
Can anyone recommend if Wildfire is better than 6 stacks for a soulblaze Trauma staff build?
On the Soulblaze Trauma Staff the +Crit blessing is better than cast speed right?
From what I know, warp flurry is better than every staff than every other blessing besides maybe surge because you probably are gonna quell before you get any good benefits
Wildfire is kind of redundant because purgatus has infinite cleave anyway
I think it’s better because it applies more soulblaze stacks on enemies, and since they slowly build up instead of you getting them all instantly, meaning you can apply more stacks on more enemies before ending your charge
Buuut at the same time soulblaze has a cap on the stacks that wildfire doesn't help with, and warp battery does
the other caveat is that it'll only stack up to 4 on enemies
Wildfire just helps you spread it with the infinite cleave weapon, but warp battery makes that DoT deal more damage along with also enabling some funny breakpoints like flamers and ragers
WU provided, that is
Well, actually I don't know because I never not use WU
I tried the other two, had an aneurysm and went back to WU
If you scroll up, there was a lot of wildfire convo earlier today.
I don't think wildfire is actually better than anything. The main reason to run it is if you find it fun.
If you really want incorporate wildfire into a build and notice it, blazing spirit + shred on Illisi force sword will let your really see it.
It's not strong in terms of damage compared to pretty much everything, but WILDFIRE.
I don't like it tho. 😂
so uh i found out something new today
its all very strange
but a demon host woke up kill our psyker, then it knocked down our vet and started soul sucking him, but a trapper then netted him out of the soul suck animation, not only did it save him from being killed it also rezzed him minus a wound as if one of us picked him up.........and then the demon host left like it finished him off
👀
it was very strange to watch, took me a second to process what had happened
the trapper wasnt targeting him but the net just happened to hit him
thats some jank as shit right there
I think I once got interrupted out of the peril explosion animation
in other news, i just got a new surge staff. thanks hadron for not being a pain in the ass for once
i'm talking about trauma staff
wildfire is fantastic on fire trauma
I ogryn RPed for a moment there 
......... did i have an anurism?
For non-purgatus sources it's definitely a nice pick due to the lower rate of application
I thought it was referring to purgatus at first and answered accordingly
oh yeah same page now
yeah youre dealing with less stacks of SB and a lower application rate on fire trauma meaning wildfire gets infinitely more value than on purgatus staff
i ran warp battery for a bit. sure the AB was stronger but the fire from the trauma had a bad habit of fizziling out during a horde
Which would you choose? @near wyvern @steel flame
Bigger blast radius and good perks on the right
You still up sterling wtf xD
Am going to sleeby real soon
Just kind of have a habit of finding shit to do on the computer
such as being killed by a burster
I am a victim of ogryn RP
i was on vet
true...
pillock
I am like a Reddit user
I will sign an agreement that I will be surrounded by awful people and then complain the people are awful

if u cant handle me at my accidentally killing teammates because im fucking stupid u dont deserve me at my solo clutch
I just read on Reddit that force swords have a double push. The second being more powerful / long ranged.
Is that right?
Well I survived a pack of 6 crushers by staggering them not that long ago...
The one on the right, change the Unarmoured into +5% crit chance
The charge rate is not great but I would value the blast radius over it
Force sword push attack also increases peril.
You kind of have to aim it and be positioned right. It's useful.
You can get hit between the time it takes to do a push and push attack.
I vote the right one.
Oh, you want to be handled
Ty
Ty
2
the right one
Anyone have experience using Blazing Spirit and Blood Thirsty on the Illisi force sword? If so is it as good as it sounds in my head?
id put 5% more crit chance on it though
Well, you will kill fast with special + bloodthirsty and you cannot proce SB stacks on corpses. This why shred is recommended
Doesn't shred only work for chained hits? Which I'm assuming is means chaining hits on a single target? How is shred good for dealing with a horde? (assuming they die real quick)
Gone but never forgotten
chaining just means like consecutive hits
light light light
heavy heavy heavy
long as you dont break it with a block
or something else its consecutive
I can mix the light and heavies up as long as I hit then right?
light heavy light light, whatever
Alright thanks.
Also after the first hit, hitting multiple opponents will yield several stacks of shred. DOT effects also increase your stacks each time they hit after you have done your first hit (unless they have ninja patched it out)
A grey Illisi is good at dealing with a horde
The only problem with blazing spirit illisi is that blazing spirit requires the enemy to survive the crit. If you have only a couple enemies in front of you that rarely happens cause illisi slaps so hard.
Yeah for sure.
It's no good
When you kill stuff it won't catch fire and wildfire won't xfer it.
I never got it working
it can fizzle out and never get going with bloodthristy since you just outright kill stuff with that
lewd talk outside of zealot chat
I couldv got
malleus monsronum
i was in a party with friends but it was technically a public match
rip
lol I made that mistake while helping someone else do it, we did it like 3-4 times before realizing
Only warp chads unlocked the activement before it was made easier and in private lobbies.
don't you love it when you're doing Damnation
and the veteran on your team refuses to take out anything that's in the backline, leaving your entire team to get fucked by a sniper
You pull out your brain burst or laspistol or revolver and deal with the threat.
yeah but it's on shock troop gauntlet. It's annoying that there's too many for me to handle
I did it after my entire team died, i killed the rest of the horde, elites and 2 specials then soloed boss
Veri pro
this is why flamer is trash
because sometimes you just get teammates like that
and you need a weapon that can actually kill stuff
It makes sense for a Zealot, Ogryn or even Vet to clutch but usually if everything is down to a Psyker then you know its a shit situation
And yet psyker had all the tools to do it
Depends, Psyker builds can be flexible but mostly is support or crowd control. Unless you go mad gunpsyker (one of my fave builds atm)
Flame is one of the most common for a reason
also pumps out more boss dps than pretty much everyone else (except zealot with bonker, or vet with bolter)
However I did have a match with 3 purgatus Psykers... Let's say the run did not go well
y having 3 ppl trying to do the same job is kinda dumb
They were all flaming the same horde and not even BB-ing ranged enemies
Vet is the worst at solo clutching. They are the best at preventing shits hitting the fan though.
which ones better
base stats are so similar that i would make both blue
and then see how it goes from there
Grey is much better modifiers but blues got 1 great perk already. Both still need a lot of rng though
Hello siblings ! 
this is fine.....
Is terrifying barage actually good?
dead knife?
no
slightly weapon dependant but i dont think ive seen anything run it over something else
how do you make bleed stacks with a psyker?
thought so
as far as i know you can't
so probly put executor or haymaker
u
bleed stacks are not that great
i
especially without mercy killer
Enter key broken?
nah, i was typing the enter key by inadvertance
No
It's effectively useless, especially on staves
It's like not having a blessing at all
Staves already suppress
What about second and third suppress?
That is why i often refer to the Purga' as the "Entry level" staff. Many players will just run about trying to burn shit, but not actually try to leverage the rest of the toolbox
purg is what i used to learn how to play psyker on damnation
god bless having a built-in anti armor feature (made running dueling sword not as painful)
Many purga and definitely most surge psykers suck
at least the surge VFX doesn't lie as hard to you anymore
it seems to only apply the blue scorching skin to enemies that actually got targeted by the surge instead of applying it to literally everything you hovered your crosshair over during the cast
though the lightning seems to move around with your movement instead of anchoring to the enemies that did get targeted
seeking wisdom of the ancients.
Purgatus or BB for max boss damage.
i haven’t actually tested both individually but i think BB with cerebral lacerations and kinetic barrage is better
preferably a mix of both, but BB is better
i prefer trauma staff
without barrage i feel miserable so I guess will stick to burn
its grown on me
does purga actually do good dmg to elites and bosses?
also yall does BB always cause 45% peril gain without the last feat?
or is there a way to reduce the cost
assuming that you're quelling, BB takes 3.25 seconds (2 seconds for the channel, 1 second of downtime after the cast, and 0.25 seconds for the quell)
Soulblaze does 238 DPS to Unyielding
BB does
- 770 dmg to daemonhosts, so 770/3.25 = 237 DPS
- 1100 dmg to plogryns/chaos spawns, so 1100/3.25 = 338 DPS
- 1540 dmg to beast of nurgle, so 1540/3.25 = 474 DPS
i can do 3 b4 hitting 100%
BB always costs that much unless you're running kinetic barrage and while ulted
ah gotcha
but you can always begin channeling BB from 97% peril and below and finish it safely
though the decimal values are hidden, so it's possible to blow up at 97%, so 96% is usually safer
if you ult with kinetic barrage and begin BBing from 0% peril, your 5th BB will begin at 97%, and it's safe to cast it there
yeah
how 😮
lvl15: Psykinetic's Aura, lvl30: Quicken
it doesn't replace kinetic barragedoes it
but it’s 15% reduced on elite kill
oh ok
yeah what arco said
i like running psyk's aura personally
same
Basically BB is the goto when it comes to boss dps, no?
though cerebral lacerations is fun too
pretty much it seems
illisi/deimos is prob better against plogryn
though you'll need to have some APM for the illisi
apm?
Btw, how does BB fare against assassination targets?
basically just having some good fingers
ah gotcha
since you'll need to constantly quell with the illisi, and you can't quell while you're in the middle of the swing
so you end up having to animation cancel by either swapping off your melee or blocking
actually blocking is way easier now that i think about it
i'm not sure, but he does seem to take 2x or more melee damage to both his shield and hp
so better to just whack him anyways
melee is always the way if u can get in melee range
Worth it to special charge your melee?
illisi yes
against his flak sure, though with deimos you have the l1 and h2 anyways
illisi, i'm not sure since the force sword heavies are probably good enough single-target DPS
i thought l1 and h2 on deimos was for horde clearing
without testing it, i'd say that they're probably equal but spamming the illisi special is good for keeping your peril up
the deimos is the stabby stabby force sword with the hooked end
the l1 and h2 are the stabs
Obscurus?
i like trauma since it's more of a generalist staff, but purg is also good
from what i understand obscurus is middle of the pack and outperformed by both illisi and deimos
yeah i'd charge it on the obscurus
obscurus is pretty much a worse deimos
uncharged illisi heavy does no damage
it's good if you hit a weakspot
shit base damage but good weakspot multis
and you have to account for the time it takes to activate your special
charged does way more
illisi special deals ~500 damage to weakspots and normal heavies deal ~300 to weakspots
off the top of my head, it takes ~0.7 seconds for both the activation and swing
i think the swing is slightly shorter
u also have to account for the cool factor in activating the illisi special
u sure bout that 500 special damage
true
rule of cool is the end all be all of 40k
i thought we were talking about bosses
i thought we were talking about the captain
Also bear in mind captain has a maximum damage per hit limit on the shield.
do you know off the top of your head if melee does 2x or 3x damage to the shield/hp?
well idc about the captain i thought it was bosses my bad
this chat still as hell i see
we will rule this world one day
when subclasses come in darktide 2 im sure
i want me some bubble shields
im curious what the protectorate psyker class will be like
their armor looks cool
hope they have more than 100/100 health stats
1/1 stats
if the blitz/ult gives some nice defensive stuff, then i'd be fine with the 150/100 stats we currently have
aight we have a hi intensity
@lunar hollow
@spice veldt
hi binch
i was asking u to because someone has not seen the context
and u said the knocked up thing
but ok just LIE about me
No.
is it wrong to speak fax
fuck you
Damnit the weirdness is here as we
Pls be nice to Josho
No 😛
how do i proceed?
on the perks
imma put pining fire on terrifying barrage
Maniacs flak my dood
Yeah swap elites with flak
You might wanna start with a better base
Dmg stopping power and ammo need to be 75-80
Those arent optional
Mobility and collat can be a bit lower, but the other 3 cant be
Mfw I'm using <70% damage and ammo on my autopistol on the veteran 
If you're running gunpsyker i would IMO be a bit more mindful about team ammo consumption
But thats just me
Vet is diff
Since they create ammo from thin air
Stopping power is a little low since its what makes pinning broken
Its good enough till you get something better esp if you have pf 3+
Honestly, raking fire is also kind of a bust for me, given how rarely the enemy aren't charging straight at you. Possibly useful for dealing with elites that are wailing on someone else, but having a shot on the back of the enemy is... it's not a strategy you can actually deliberately enact most of the time. (And if you are trying to enact it, your team is probably badly split up, stop it).
Gunpsyker kinda sus anyway play vet to pew pew gud
IMO it's not what class you are playing but whether there is a least a minimum of one veteran in your game
it is because you can't guarantee a vet in your game and you can't guarantee coherency
especially since the alternate option for psykers consumes no ammo.
Say you have multiple vets in your game, just because you are also a vet doesn't mean you can use any more ammo then you could just because you were there. in fact you may have to be more conservative
yes, but you always build for the worst case scenario
it's easy to magdump extra ammo, it's not easy when everyone on the team is red
That still makes the choice if vet: ammo usage scenario a. No vet: ammo usage scenario b.
vet does have a 40% bonus to their reserve ammo which also translates into 40% more ammo from all sources
Rather than just if gunpsyker: ammo usage scenario b
well you're comparing two scenarios
That's true if rounding makes a difference in your gun
- Staff psyker uses 0 ammo 2. GunPsyker uses X amount of ammo (from the team supply)
Some games you'll find 3 ammo boxes and you'll have 2 vets.
Some games you'll find 0 ammo boxes, 0 vets and everybody will have red ammo.
In that case it's better to be mindful since you're playing a class that has the option to not use ammo at all.
That's an argument in favor of playing based on conditions and not class
Yes you should always adjust your strategy based on what is happening lmao
And as such, you should build in a way that makes your build setup more resilient to "shit happens"
I don't even know why I'm arguing this, it's literally common sense
For gunker you have to make sure the rest of your team has priority on ammo, since you got other tools to deal with threats
This whole argument makes no sense because gun and staff Psykers fill a very different role.
A gun psyker is a jack of all trades DPS with a focus depending on your gun:
- elites and specials (shredder / revolver / infantry autogun)
- ranged mobs (lasguns / headhunter autogun)
- even more jack of all trades (laspistol)
Why don't you just use a vet hurr durr, well cause psykers also bring a lot of tankyness with them if using a force sword.
Stave Psykers on the other hand bring a lot of CC and supression with some added damage, where the type and balance of the scale between CC and damage depends on the staff.
Two very different roles.
Tankyness?
Psyker can be a tank with kinetic deflection (i think thats the name of the feat) and stuff like deflector
Even kinetic shield is pretty strong for tanking
Chain smoker?
Perhaps work on your reading comprehension
There is no argument about "roles" and stuff at all. The whole point was "You should try to get a high roll on the ammo stat on your gun if you're using autopistol"
Infinite Dodges... Perma stagger trash with push... Kinetic Deflection and you can face tank bosses... Deflector and you can even block ranged shots... Yeah, tankyness, but it's all behind active defence. Make a mistake you die but if you are good you are unkillable as long as you have space to move.
Shredder is ammo hungry if you spam it like a maniac.
And on another note, I don't have two hours to read discord so apologies for not searching for the beginning of the discussion. I just saw some debate over "you are wasting ammo if you are not playing staff" which is not true. You are wasting ammo if you are wasting ammo. Then there are some guns where it's extremely hard to get rid of your ammo (infantry lasguns cough cough) just because they have so superb ammo economy.
Just... Dodge?
just....die? instead?
I hold down W+M1
I respect your decision but please don't team up with me 
yes, that way I can watch netflix on my other monitor
and still get ordos+plasteel

oh yeah I agree
I was telling that guy he should aim for 80/80/80 in dmg, stoppingpower, ammo if he wanted shredder, just so he can put a little bit less pressure on the team ammo
As a said previously, some games you're gonna have trouble with ammo
due to bad luck, class comp, hishock, etc
that litterally every class with every gun minus infantry lasguns
shredder isnt special, its no differnt than having another zealot on your team
the ammo economy doesnt suddenly shift because the psyker brought a gun
correct
I do run shredder when I play vet and don't have ammo issues but I am also not shooting literally every target with the thing
How you gonna farm power cycler 4 and never melee lol
lol
the ammo economy does shift though
especially since the difference between a good ammo roll and a shitty ammo roll on autopistol is 20% more ammo from vet passive
And anywhere from 10-15% from pickups
Ammo is rarely an issue ever from my perspective
Guys I think I need mental help. My headcanon wants to see the Judge zealot and Savant psyker grow fond of each other and become close friends.
I honestly hadn't really thought about that. I just think they could have a really wonderful dynamic as the Judge seems to be starting to become remorseful of their treatment of ogryns and psykers while the Savant is very compassionate (if sometimes harsh) towards the zealots as well as the rest of the team without being as disconnected as the Seer.
the lines may be the same but the voices and the personality you imagine linked to the voices are widely different from male to female especially for zealot
both male and female savant are relatively similar though
well either way, I think it could be a great and potentially hilarious dynamic between them.
Josho: sees any kind of camaraderie and kindness between two men
Also Josho: "Haha, homo"
i fully support the blooming romance between male savant and judge
its the 41st millennium you bigot
did you just assume their sexuality?
don't feed my headcanon...
i did not assume. i know.
you're projecting your desires
mittins has followed me here 
only partially
99% is partially
I too have a mouse that can click on chat channels
im on mobile smh
I could definitely see them fall in love
a mouse for a mittens, ironic
dont group urself with me

and having little zealous psyker babies 🥺
TRUE
plap plap etc
only issue is figuring out who the top would be
What is it with french you have?
the emperor of course
hot
but you went from "becoming close friends" to full on Josho homo fantasy
I CAN'T HELP IT, THE IDEA HAS BEEN PLANTED
use a defuse kit
The god emperor willed it
i have this effect on people
not a fantast. its true.
fantast
I can't deny that. if He hadn't wanted it, it wouldn't have happened
Exactly
Now we need more voice lines
And when the seasons drop we need a romance dlc for these two
shut up you know what i was saying
yes, you were saying fantast
it's written above

I would probably not feel a thing
i am a credible threat
😦
on top of a deployed med pack
Wait but did he not want to be worshipped as a god tho?

Skill issue on his part
he secretly enjoyed it but had to uphold appearances at the time
Emperor confirmed narccisist 
Nobody suprised
well now, I guess we've got lore on why we crash and why random veterans disappear all of a sudden and an Ogryn pops out of thin air
the seer's beloved is real
exactly
C'mon now, lets not reach too far into lunacy 
all according to the giant horned space rat's design
This is psyker chat
I can't control it
Touche 
Josho ten seconds after finding out someone is english
psyker is the best class because u get to make all ur squad members uncomfortable with the high peril voicelines
I think thats josho always
sometimes he says nice things while he's edging arco
good lord
goodness gracious
my heavens
Well itd be kinda rude if he didnt
Gorgon HMG for psyker when?
when vet gets ripper
Youd never play another class
i have been advocating for years to take all the water melting from the ice caps and just dumb it all over england
Make sure its England though an not the rest of the isles yeah?
That is happening already u fool
free us from tyranny
it needs to occur far faster
Imagine drowning england and letting welsh live
i am willing to donate $72 towards buckets to drown england
U macaque
If it makes you feel better, the polticians will sink England long before the melting ice caps 
shut up u filthy miserable badteeth
U tangerine of a man

I feel much better here with the mentally unstable rather than one chat above, with the mentally unhinged

except bully ogryn
who are you
huh
i am josho
more like Shojo
I am spartacus
ojsho
doesnt that mean like 'girl' in japanese
indeed
true
the zealot demain is seeping into psyker chat, BEGONE DEMONS
Aside from the psykanarium, is there a way to see how much damage a warp charged force sword attack does?
no, only the psykhanium shows damage done unless you mod the game
I meant like in the attack breakdown menu but gotcha.
sadly no
you need to install healthbars mod
Imo it's killing the thrill, since you know if like a crusher is 1 hp away from death, you just casually walk up to him and poke
And potentially can block ur vision on special troop gauntlets
yeah idc if people run the mod but i do view it as kinda cheaty only cause it does a lot of target prioritization for you
since it does give you info that part of the difficulty is built around you not having/needing to keep track of yourself
but honestly its not game breaking enough for me to care that people use it
Man, i hope psyker is one of the 1st to get a subclass, ideally they would just release all 4, but that's asking to much probably lol
it's extremely likely there will be subclasses grouped under existing archetypes
datamined code from launch had it work like that, there were ogryn gunluggers and vet squadleaders
whether or not you would have to level a new character or if they would have shared inventories is unknown
i have to assume the next major thing on the menu is probably going to be that?
like at this point we've gotten maps, weapons, cosmetics, etc
but any major updates are probably coming after console release
I'm guessing that or more weapons
Or maybe crafting change since they mentioned locks but idk if they want to change that
there's probably going to be some overhauls to how crafting works
but they've been discussing that since before crafting actually became a functional mechanic
Doing that would bring back half the lost player base from last few months
100% you'll have to make a new char
And relevel and refarm weapons
At most you'll be able to reuse blessings
Tbh i dont even mind that
I still dont think the game needs new classes yet
I think they need to fix mission select and improve crafting progression first
Any way to prevent the bug that makes you rotate characters in the mission success/failure screen? It stops you from skipping steps.
It still exists? I haven't seen it for several month now
Got it twice in a row just now.
fatshark moment
also, I still have my "new item" dot in my cosmetic tab when I actually haven no new cosmetics, that's there since launch if I'm not mistaken
Oh yeah, this one is alive and kicking
Im kinda sad we dont have a portrait frame for 500k kills. We get one with green cloth at 25k and then red one at 1 mil
Portraits don't look too good overall anyway.
Im currently on the hunt for all the 250 missions complete, some of them are cool, investigation one is my fav
With servo skull, and green glow
Gun psyker moment?
HOLY AMMUNITION, AS I REQUIRED
ERR, HOW DO I RELOAD
This is what I just got for my vet
what the... how did you get run n gun?
now thats just rude, im a gunker thank you very much
in all seriousness though, I've never seen that on a laspistol.
I remember the run and gun effect being a passive thing on the Laspistol last time I played
Guess they shadow changed it or whatever
Yeah they nerfed that
its always been there
Shame it was pretty damn fun
I don't see it anywhere here.
huh
take it back then
for whatever reason i mremeber it being there in the beta but maybe i was just imagining things
now my hopes of being a run n gun psyker are toast ;-;
new mandala effect dropped
it might be t3 only fyi
that's literally t3
oh
ded
ded game

Pepsi
you know what would be hot? a Slaanesh x Seer fanfic
Or pepsi
I refuse to write anything outside of Loner x reader
Been roasted for 80% of the date is simply too funny
20% was complaining about the imperium and been a heretic
I just wanna go on a date with the female Seer. she's so damn cute 🥺
unyielding and flak imo
if you do go for unyielding, i'd personally prioritize maniac over flak (because of mutants)
but maniac and flak seems more generally useful (mutants, dreg/scab ragers, maulers)
i guess if you're annoyed with reapers dying too slowly
ty ty
Maniac carapace
how did I do? the perk I replaced was originally +1 stamina
I'd put Warp Flurry on if I had it for Trauma
You want 25 unarmoured 25 flak 80 charge rate. Focused channeling and warp flurry
So you didn't hit a single mark

hows this
If you have Uncanny stacks up, does soulfire also have 100% rending?
Aka: Would it wreck the hell out of crushers?
ye, though you'd have to juggle maintaining the soulblaze stacks on the crushers (8 seconds before soulblaze begins to decay) and your uncanny strike stacks
it won't necessarily wreck them since soulblaze's single-target DPS is meh, but it's nice for groups of crushers
That's fair. Was mostly curious if I could do a full blast purgatus into a mixed horde, swap to melee, and watch them burn. Or just use the ascendant blaze thing.
But that's interesting to know. Thanks fellas.
goated melk axe?
You can go blaze trauma but I like + flak. + carapace doesn't do too much.
what do i put on that axe, flak?
yeah
