Literally just swinging my camera left or right repeatedly to increase range of swings
#psyker-class
spice veldt
i already don't like having my camera sway set to >0 and i would hate it even more of it was my camera swaying instead of just my weapon model
since camera sway means that my weapon model is fixed while everything else is moving around, which means less environmental awareness and generally being annoying
whereas the current system is only generally annoying without the loss in clarity of your surroundings
unreal wasp
Meh, even so a lot of these veterans are wearing horse blinders

The MG12 recoils a fair bit, but isn't too bad on sway.
People say the MG1a is better on recoil, but I think a lot of that is a visual effect rather than an actual one. I tested both in the psykanium, and the 1a didn't actually seem easier to chain headshots with.
And the 1a also comes with the bizarre combination of being less powerful, but also getting fewer shots - you give up bodyshot kills (with high enough stats and the right feats, anyway) on a lot of enemies vs the 12, but don't get much back.
As far as sway, the headache (which is definitely worse with the HH) is that sights often don't match up with the actual point of aim. There's a couple of mods that can both fix the crosshair so it's in its true 3D position, and add it on ADS so you can see where you're actually aiming. I'd need to look up the names, but they can help a lot if you're interested.
unreal wasp
So wait, when my iron sights are pointing to the left, they're not ACTUALLY aiming at the left?
hidden crystal
They... kind of are, but the point of aim isn't actually behind the sight post.
spice veldt
the weapon model approximately follows where the bullet will actually go, but it does deviate sometimes
the Crosshair Remap mod is good for giving you a dot when ADSing
unreal wasp
Eugh, I'm always trying to put the front sight on enemies because that's where it technically SHOULD be going
May not work the same as a holographic though, doesn't matter which angle you look at it, bullet is supposed to go approximately where the dot is
hidden crystal
the Crosshair Remap mod is good for giving you a dot when ADSing
Dynamic Crosshair is the other one I'm thinking of. This fixes it so the dot is actually in the right place in 3D space, although that's less important if you're not using the 3rd person mod.

Should in real life, but game designers often don't get that part right. I think if you inspect, the dot isn't actually projected at any great distance.
unreal wasp
Oof, you can see the reticle from any angle even if you're at an extreme angle?
hidden crystal
Not any angle, but it's only projected slightly in front of the sight (a few inches maybe?), not out at a hundred metres or so like it should be.
They've tried to go for this fancy and not very accurate (in both senses) thing where the two elements of the holo sight are projected at different, but close, distances.
So mods adding an ADS crosshair that's actually where it should be is helpful.
hidden crystal
One other thing to be said for the MG12 is that although it doesn't have the great flak modifier of the Vraks VII (it's not terrible, but it ends up needing +Flak to hit certain breakpoints as a result), it's way better against Maniacs.
It's reasonably feasible to bring down a charging mutie in five or six shots.

Luckily I got Warp Battery on my second mission, did a Smelter Complex which has a LONG walk before you ever get to an elevator
And a holdout before the elevator
Only penances I have left on Psyker for the cosmetics are the 7 push kills and doing a Heresy Repair
Warp Battery SUCKS as a melee Psyker
I do a Heresy Repair, get Witchshroud and complete my fit, swapped to the Warp Battery pants because they're plain and personally it's a harder penance than killing four elites with brainburst in twelve seconds
Got the four elites killed without necessarily trying, just had Kinetic Barrage on to make it easier to get Shoot Fast
Decided to put on the backpack since I'm a gunker and the color matches the penance cosmetics

Have decided if I'm going to use a gun to fight shooters, it might as well be VIIa Recon

The MG12 is pretty slick. With good stats and the right feats and perks, a psyker can get bodyshot kills on most non-elites, and the only thing it's utterly useless against is carapace. It's not great against hordes (it won't mow them down like some things), but it has at least got enough ammo that it doesn't feel too wasteful to shoot into a horde if you've got to hold back.

No, even if the description keeps getting "fixed", it's based on peril, not warp charges. (In the code, peril is refered to as warp charge, and warp charges as souls, and that mistake often slips into the descriptions).
unreal wasp
Coders moment
cold geode
melk, why
hidden crystal
Surprised I don't see more people with this
Because the implementation is arse.
I went back to Malice for a while to try to get it, but:
- If you crash, the mission cannot add to your progress.
- If you disconnect, the mission cannot add to your progress.
- If you're not there from the landing cutscene, the mission cannot add to your progress.
- Basically, anything but being connected all the way from the start to the end cutscene cannot count for progress. Even if the matchmaking puts you into a game five milliseconds after deployment.
- If, at any point any of the above happen, and the mission cannot add to your progress, being downed will still reset your progress, meaning that you can require many more than 15 flawless missions to complete the penance.
- If you reconnect and the bot has taken a wound while you were disconnected, it resets your progress.
- If you connect to a mission where the bot has already taken a wound, it resets your progress.
- Progress is not added across all characters (each has their own streak), but being downed on any character resets all your characters' progress.
Add to it that sometimes stuff just happens like a barrel launching you into oblivion or a sniper that doesn't give you any warning, and even the best players can't infinitely sustain a flawless streak, so it can be extremely unfulfilling to try to achieve if you have even minor stability issues.

Even though I'm currently playing at Damnation level (I've not yet tried to graduate to hi-int Damn), the game is unreliable enough for me that even if I could chain together fifteen Malice missions with 100% reliability and I always connected in at the start of a mission so that it counts, the odds of the game crashing/disconnecting in that time and the bot that replaces me getting downed are definitely not zero.

In Consignment Yard, I'll often be up in the control room with a lasgun, because it's got a decent cover and good lines of sight that heavily reduce how much cover a couple of spawns get. And there's interrogators up there that need babysitting... but hey, if one breaks down elsewhere, I'm either jumping out to deal with it, or I'm providing cover for whoever is.

LoSing enemies does not really work there in a safe manner because you're not actually able to back-up if something goes wrong, you're just walking forwards
spice veldt
I'm also paranoid of getting bogged down by infinite spawns
I had that happen a while back during the midevent, and I'm not sure if they fixed it
but ranged waves would just spawn one after another
lunar hollow
its my favorite
the game has a stroke and decrees that u must advance under fire or perish
spice veldt
and it was only me and another Psyker, since the other two teammates were bots

had a couple matches where it would send 10-15 bruisers at a time behind you

there needs to be an infinite horde mode
like a defence mission, were you gotta defend a point
lunar hollow
no i would just like alternate ways of encouraging you to actively move through a mission while fighting other than disabler spam
there needs to be more types of "this shit don't stop spawning" missions
spice veldt
anything that will teach players to move and fight at the same time
lunar hollow
i would prefer monstrous specials being reworked into a condition that independently spawns weakened/regular monstrosities
instead of tying it to specials
and then allowing it to be a part of regular missions
same thing with elites and hordes. give 'infinite' hordes that are considerably more active/spawn more frequently, give a mode with guaranteed melee (maybe ranged) elites in a horde, etc

whenever i play those missions my team just gets hit with mainly normal bosses and then a few weakened
lunar hollow
there's something very wrong with how that mode works
gilded radish
like 4 cspawn at the same time
lunar hollow
the damage vs bosses on that shit gets real weird
you will have regular bosses that lose 10k from a single autopistol shot
the game is having a bit of a stroke in that game mode
gilded radish
indeed
lunar hollow
anything that will teach players to move and fight at the same time
the game actively does a bad job of this because the tutorial n stuff wants u to take cover to kill shooters
and its not like "oh also generally speaking u should stay mobile to fight enemies and complete objectives"
spice veldt
yeah the game generally rewards you for being aggressive
such a shame that the tutorial is dogwater
obtuse lake
guys
gilded radish
yeah?
obtuse lake
sec
what is a good staff build to be ultra aggressive and carry the goofy ah team? currently i am playing with purgatus
gilded radish
i run purge as well, and mostly carry teammates
obtuse lake
i mean it's good but the range is killing me mostly
obtuse lake
dont get hit XD
lyric burrow
purge/trauma are most aggro imo
spice veldt
probably trauma if you think you're too vulnerable during purg's cast
you get ranged I-frames on dodges and slides, so make use of that
obtuse lake
purge/trauma are most aggro imo
not rly fan of trauma
gilded radish
use teammates as bullet sponges and hide behind them
lyric burrow
uh probably purge then
obtuse lake
use teammates as bullet sponges and hide behind them
xd indeed man
spice veldt
it actually is pretty valid to wait for the aggro to switch to your teammates and then to use that window to run up to their asses
obtuse lake
also i heard that there was some recent buffs on a auto pistol or something? also staffs getting bugged?
gilded radish
xd indeed man
what i do, and i get the highest damage dealt and lowest damage taken
lyric burrow
autopistol is the same for months
revolver got buffed
they changed blaze away a bit tho i think
but nothing major

i want the dome, so then i can be out in the open and not get hit

so yeah, also what is the max power on weapons again ? forgor
380 on base modifier. 550 is maxed if u have all t4
if ur asking about stat-wise. It's 80% is max

what about max curio?
The curios are all skewed. Instead of looking at the number just look at the tiers for the perks and blessings
Example
78 + 75 = 198????
Fat shark math
spice veldt
it was mildly fucked the last patch and then they fucked it even more somehow
spice veldt
truly impressive
silk flax
It doesn't matter though, just get the perks u want. I am glad that FS gave us some agency on curios. A LOT easier to obtain what u want
idc about that math part as long as I can get what i want
spice veldt
it's nice for the reason that my recent curios are all at the top of my inventory
silk flax
The bright side of life
Well since we can choose 2 perks on curios.... only a matter of time before we can choose for weapons??? maybe. copium.
I would like to at least have a function to roll the items back to "White Rarity" again. If they don't give us a way to unlock the locks

nerfs to blessings might alleviate the emphasis on weapon strength and thus make crafting less of a pain point, which I will wait for in october

I am hoping there is more than just the talents. Don't get me wrong the talent trees is cool and I'm sure a lot of stuff will be op or broken. Given FS record. But I want a new difficulty, more maps, or something
New mode, New classes, vs mode.,... w/e it is. People will try out the talent trees and then like after a week or a month at most people will leave, because of the item acqusition in this game is atrocious

Sadly they've backed themselves into a corner with balancing. If they start nerfing stuff, there will be mass outrage due to the time people have already had to spend on getting their stuffs. Whilst it'd be super good to get a full rebalance, it likely hinges on another full crafting rework. (Not including exceptions such as Pinning Fire definately needing a nerf sooner rather than later)
spice veldt
they might try their luck if it's done alongside the skill tree
to distract people from nerfs to their pswords and whatnot
and buffs to the lower end of things
some play testers have been alluding to some blessing nerfs coming along with the patch, so I am quite expectant
plucky flax
RIP slaughterer illisi.
silk flax
Well Pinning Fire is definitely gonna be one
silk flax
RIP slaughterer illisi.
Is it Slaughterer in general or just on illisi
spice veldt
if it were my way, I'd nerf both
plucky flax
Everywhere I suppose. But it's too good of a blessing on illisi.
silk flax
Everywhere I suppose. But it's too good of a blessing on illisi.
It's a good blessing on everytrhing
plucky flax
Horde clear speed would decrease by a lot.
silk flax
On every weapon that can get Slaughterer that's the #1 wanted blessing
spice veldt
from 7 seconds to 15 seconds on 40 poxwalkers 😔
silk flax
Even with if it does get nerfed it still the main go-to blessing anyways
just makes a bit longer to kill horde and other things if u have the max stack

and was fucking FREAKING out and was like "i hope all the zealots and psykers get shot to death by shooters"
yeah that guy
spice veldt
LMAO
spice veldt
damn it's such a shame that zealots and psykers have no anti-shooter tools
lunar hollow
they are not going to broadly decrease the current power of players
it is specifically like a handful of too strong outliers and presumably a whole bunch of too bad outliers
that are gonna be adjusted
spice veldt
oh no they'll actually have to spec into defense
instead of picking a single feat and gaining 75% toughness dr
lunar hollow
i am almost certain that for the majority of classes
you're going to be able to have better performance in different categories based on what u choose
maybe at the cost of other stuff but also
a lot of the shit you are stuck with on classes is functionally useless right now anyways
like vet weak spot passive
or ogryn's heavy damage passive
spice veldt
our defensive options will be a lot better by being able to pick >1 toughness feats
I'm going to start shitting (on) people who only take 1 defensive option and complain about getting merked
lunar hollow
well i suppose
part of what we will have to see
is exactly what is stripped away and turned into player options
because obviously the iconics/auras/ults/blitz are definitely in that
but all the classes currently have different stat compositions n whatnot
spice veldt
the iconics will certainly mildly spec you into something
lunar hollow
the iconics seem to lock you into mutually exclusive trees
same with blitz and whatnot
spice veldt
we have battle meditation for hordeclear, so I'm expectant on what else we'll get
lunar hollow
since u can only go down the tree
spice veldt
ye
lunar hollow
i am a little not looking forward to making a vet because of how simple the tree is
spice veldt
though the uniqueness will presumably come with a higher strength than the rest of the nodes
was it that simple?
spice veldt

maybe
lunar hollow
the problem is vet is probably still my favorite class after all these hours
and its the fuckin tutorial one
and u can clearly tell this shit's made for da toddlers cuz the skill tree looks the simplest

and i can do that repeatedly
im in
spice veldt
the force smite better have good damage
lunar hollow
fuck brainburst
i love close range combat
i wanna feel like palpatine
and then im hoping theres more interesting options than warp charges and whatnot
because having ur entire gameplay loop be engage in shitty DPS to keep ur global damage buff or take feats with huge opportunity cost to ignore it
is lame as hell
and its not really rewarding u for anything like any of the other classes
lunar hollow
on ogryn its like, cleave hordes, or play defensive and react to enemies (payback time), or save up for a big heavy
on zealot its like, be hurt glass cannon (still sucks), HIT SHIT, or shoot stuff at range
vet its just use gun
and psyker is identity crisis
spice veldt
I think the damage buff would feel better if we had a ranged single-target staff
but on the slow, clunky staffs that we have, it's breakpoints city
lunar hollow
the thing is like
on other classes ur rewarded in kinda LARP-y ways
theres specific themed playstyles u commit to
and a sense of like, yea im a zealot makes sense i get invigorated by the pain
on psykers its like "i harvest their souls, but also the souls leave after like 30 seconds (???)"
and the gameplay it provides is fuckin weird. it just feels like im being incentivized to do stupid shit like brainburst poxwalkers
spice veldt
warp charges as they are make sense to me if you're hanging back but also a good portion of our current damage output is being up close
lunar hollow
or the feat selection just lets u outright ignore that entire mechanic
which is no good either
spice veldt
p much
lunar hollow
warp charges as they are make sense to me if you're hanging back but also a good...
brainburst is supposed to be more central to the psykinetic
but you can't have it compete with guns otherwise psyker gets all that damage for free
and u cant have it be dogshit cuz then ur blitz sucks and that's no good
so it's in this weird spot where like, it's a 'utility weapon' with an overinflated importance
which is why i hope there's alternative offensive options in the skill tree
spice veldt
maybe the shard blitz has a cooldown but does something like give you a buff while it's on cooldown
and it has a quick use
instead of the fucking 2 second charge + 1 second downtime (uninterruptible anim btw lamayo) of the bb
lunar hollow
i am interested to see how psyker blitzes behave
since we already know theyre adding other ways to limit how many u can use
it would be funny if the force smite was built-up by being at high peril
spice veldt
oooh
lunar hollow
and u could release that peril energy into the enemies with it
spice veldt
faster CD based on your peril
lunar hollow
that's kinda sorta how actual warp charges work
spice veldt
now that's good for thought
lunar hollow
in imperium maledictum
'warp charges' are bad, in that its warp energy stored inside u from doing powers
and u can shit it out into the environment to get rid of it
and this has lasting negative effects u roll on a table for
the lasting negative effects here would be the death of whatever u hit it with

Wait, how'd it work?
lunar hollow
and then maybe one of the options for feats would be reducing the threshhold needed to activate it
spice veldt
a "shard" blitz that was described as "crowd controlling" in the pcgamer article
but I think it might've been a.misnomer and that it's more "crowd killing"
lunar hollow
Wait, how'd it work?
have to build peril by other means and then swap to use it
obviously this would restrict u to using some kind of force weapon in one of ur slots
grand scroll
but I think it might've been a.misnomer and that it's more "crowd killing"
Sooo...basically crowd control.
lunar hollow
which may or may not be too restrictive in terms of how fatshark wants build requirements to be
spice veldt
u had to be at high peril to use the smite
might be too restrictive but benefits based on peril are always welcome
grand scroll
Is there a third Blitz?
spice veldt
Sooo...basically crowd control.
killing is part of control, but cc has more implications than just killing
lunar hollow
might be too restrictive but benefits based on peril are always welcome
true
i guess another option
spice veldt
in the same way that I would not call piss water
lunar hollow
and i think this would actually kill me if they did it
is give the force smite a bar
and u use it up by blasting enemies
and it has passive regen and the higher ur peril is the faster it is
spice veldt
hell yeah
lunar hollow
this would be like the fucking millionth resource to manage on psyker
i would die irl if i saw that

spice veldt
you know it's bad when players of a class think that it needs to be tuned
viral solstice
it completely annihilates the ammo economy
i wonder if it will still be in the game
spice veldt
yesnt

if u leak ill kill u sonny

a magic 8ball answered for me
it has yet to be wrong
both of vet's ammo passives fuckin warp how the game works
spice veldt
or give it the battle meditation/demo team treatment
spice veldt
and be like "5% chance to get 1% ammo"
fluid knot
Legit tho, plasma would be infinitely better if it wasnt withheld to ammo
lunar hollow
2 ammo regained on elite kill and takes 3 to fire
and then like 9% regained on small ammo tin vs the standard 14%-ish (idk if its true cuz that number was from vet chat)
fluid knot
Honestly like Arco pointed out.. give it a battery mechanic. The improvements to ammo economy it would need to be a competative choice with only one Vet in the lobby would be a ludicrous buff
It would need like 500% more overall ammo efficiency (box pickups, consumption, returns) to be able to deal with shooter mobs effectively in higher difficulties

just realised im still running warp absorp with a pure melee build and a gun... shocking... this is the damage seeing fatshark hitboxes does a man

for the feat that requires you to keep max warp charges for 300s, is that total during the match or 300s non-stop?
hidden crystal
for the feat that requires you to keep max warp charges for 300s, is that total ...
Continuous. No gaps.
If it was just in total, it'd be trivial.
You want to avoid missions with long elevator rides in the middle, as those are always too long to maintain charges over.
Airlocks are also bad, as players often dawdle getting in them.
I personally recommend Enclavum Baross, ideally on hi-intensity so there's no lulls.

What is best feat loadout for trauma staff main
feats are whatever for trauma, since it's not like there's any particular synergy of note besides warp flurry + inner tranq or Soulblaze stuff + blazing spirit
I run 212233 myself
hidden crystal
But Consignment Yard and Chasm Logistratum probably aren't too bad (only one door near the end that people are generally well funneled into), as long as you shift after the mid-events.
(Baross nicely has a long line of sight after the mid event, which enemies often quickly charge down).

Do you have blaze trauma?
Run wildfire ascendant blaze if so.

If you don't know how to play psyker is very squishy.

one notable difference from the other classes is that we have no single-target burst DPS unless you run a gun

Psyker ramps up slowly as a class. No feats to help you keep BBs charged until Lvl15, the staff you get access to first has horrible stat scaling, and the staff that probably should be the first one you get doesn't arrive until Lvl 11.

hidden crystal
Once levelled, psykers can be an extremely versatile class, but have quite a high skill requirement to make up for their default squishiness.
Although with the right feats and gear, they can be quite tanky. But it's mostly a case of stuff you have to actively do, rather than passive resilience.

You unlock the class properly at lvl 30. For more specific tips:
near wyvern
In short Psyker can be played many ways but your survivability requires active defense. Mastering melee combat, dodging and sprint sliding is essential for your survival. In return you get mass CC weapons with infinite ammo and good damage as well as multiple possible ways to build such that you are anti everything.
hidden crystal
Including anti-success.

whats the build for blazing trauma
I run 311112. Others like wildifre instead. That's a great staff since near max charge rate and blast radius are essential. You should swap one of the perks to +crit chance.
Gameplay wise try to finish all your casts at 80-100 peril and abuse the fuck out of quell cancelling.
inland sand
Wildfire is pretty shit imo so will avoid that
near wyvern
With 311112 you want to hold go 6 warp charges as much as you can and only ult when shit hits the fan and you need to clear the room right now
inland sand
what are the best perks?

Yes it's bugged to hell
plucky flax
Weak minded players just can't handle wildfire.
inland sand
it's just also the worst choice on that row by far
more like contrarians overhype how good it is because they like to feel special
near wyvern
what are the best perks?
Perks don't really matter as long as you have +crit chance 5%. I would keep the poxie groaner damage just so you can easily one shot trash if you are down on charges.

Use your melee with slaughterer to empower wildfire.

Maxing out crit chance (between Warp Nexus and a perk) to get as much soulblaze as possible.

Use your melee with slaughterer to empower wildfire.
or use your pinning fire auto pistol to break the game and kill everything with 4 warp stacks
degen mode
plucky flax
It's okay wildfire bad.
People just don't know how to use it. It was so op back then with free slaughterers stacking.
Literally just press f and get kills while holding your force sword.

haven’t used it in a while tbf, I do wanna try it again with a blazing illisi
plucky flax
Slaughterer is so much better.
Wildfire is 'meme' but blaze illisi is the real meme.

tbf some of these more meme builds actually have a chance to be good next patch

are you aiming for full charges of blue circle or just light ones to spam crit chance
