Still cosmetics

gotta get ready in that back to school event

Anyway, only new ones since then have been Premium Cosmetics
Like a Rogue Trader hat for Psyker
It's pretty cool

Oh, I'd better log in to check the store. After I read the patch notes, I can basically confirm that I will no longer main Zealot

itll be nice to have a surge staff in the pocket while taking trauma/void staff
teal needle
Probably won't do the (meh) damage of surge. But honestly if smite is any good not sure why you'd bring surge
teal needle
Maybe if psy shard is op, but if it is just bring trauma and get real kills to empower it
fast swan
scryers gaze seems really funny
vast hare
I could see it basically being current surge staff and then surge staff getting a mad huge upgrade
fast swan
like REALLY funny
still hearth
I could see it basically being current surge staff and then surge staff getting ...
I'm still hoping it just becomes a cone of CC.
fast swan
give me a force dagger that works with crit for insane clown funny moments
still hearth
Just make it Purgatus but stun
I don't care if Surge does 0 damage if it stuns an entire horde
vast hare
That would be too good honestly
digital narwhal
I'm still hoping it just becomes a cone of CC.
Cone stun so you can actually stun hordes would be cool, instead of seeing Pub Psykers shock 6 Poxies at a time
spice veldt
shame
vast hare
I'm fine with limited targets as long as it knows to prioritize the biggest ones
spice veldt
scrier's seems like the ult for non-force weapon users
digital narwhal
scrier's seems like the ult for non-force weapon users
Could definitely be useful with something like Transfer Peril Voidstrike though.
Transfer Peril + Blazing Spirit Voidstrike seems like it'd be pretty fun with Scrier's
Could do Warp Flurry too instead of Blazing Spirit, but the crit chance bonus makes Blazing Spirit a more obvious choice than usual imo
spice veldt
yeah since voidstrike is usually neutral
not that i would ever want to use it unless they changed the design of the weapon
spice veldt
the effect lingers for 10s after leaving the ult which is interesting
i assume that they changed warp unleashed into scrier's gaze
digital narwhal
Tbh, all Staves could use a little something something imo
cyan notch
You can't prove me wrong yet
ur wrong
digital narwhal
i assume that they changed warp unleashed into scrier's gaze
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Warp Unleashed might survive
spice veldt
maybe behind an iconic node
digital narwhal
Maybe
spice veldt
free damage feats are basically must-picks
especially if they're non-conditional 10%-25%+ damage buffs
digital narwhal
Since most Psykers should be able to manage themselves at high Peril anyway-
It's just free, yeah
red wind
is it over for flame psyker
digital narwhal
Maybe not
red wind
or did they just not talk about it in the blog
plucky flax
You can't prove me wrong yet
I play hishock double grims with surge. 
digital narwhal
We'll have to wait and see
red wind
lightning psyker might be better at least
digital narwhal
There are some unmentioned upgrade nodes to our Blitzes and Class Abilities, so
still hearth
I play hishock double grims with surge. <:FeelsStrongMan:880925680416743505>
Why do you hurt me like this
digital narwhal
maybe some Soulblaze effects are there
spice veldt
yeah and psyker having the most nodes locked behind our ults
spice veldt
i'm pretty excited to see the addons to our ults
red wind
hopefully staying at 6 warp charges the entire game is possible lol
digital narwhal
Same
red wind
gaze seems like it's either going to be extremely strong or entirely useless
spice veldt
maybe not since it's based on elite/special kills, at least by default
25% cooldown reduction at max stacks
red wind
bb buff though so ultimately this is a win
spice veldt
I think i'll take the warp siphon ability just for that alone
still hearth
hopefully staying at 6 warp charges the entire game is possible lol
There's no more base warp charges
digital narwhal
They could have the 4% Warp Charge chance on kill by you or Coherent ally thing locked behind the Warp Siphon Keystone
still hearth
The keystone that gives warp charges also removes then when you ult
Warp Charges are now all Quicken
But worse
digital narwhal
We are getting a 50% damage buff to Brain Burst though
So hopefully
BPs aren't impacted too much
(accounting for the enemy buffs they mentioned too)
spice veldt
yeah i'm using that to estimate how much they're increase enemy hp values by
cyan notch
hard to tell
red wind
so that probably means no more gun resist with warp stacks
spice veldt
since my guess is that they're buffing enemy hp values to avoid getting review-bombed by anti-nerfers
red wind
i guess it's also joever for ascendant blaze
digital narwhal
so that probably means no more gun resist with warp stacks
The Toughness DR Skill is based on Peril, not Warp Charges
cyan notch
its not joever
red wind
The Toughness DR Skill is based on Peril, not Warp Charges
nvm then
haven't played the game in like 5 months
red wind
hm
spice veldt
peril is called "warp charges" in code, so that results in some easy-to-make mistakes when writing descriptions
red wind
quelling peril isn't really an issue if you know what you're doing
spice veldt
the current ult has nice stagger and peril vent
red wind
Warp Flurry spam
true
still hearth
Why would you use Shriek
spice veldt
it's a shame that it's on a 30s cooldown
red wind
i hope the knives are good
spice veldt
i'll prob stick to scrier's gaze since I'm a damage crackhead
digital narwhal
The Quell is very useful for Warp Flurry Trauma
still hearth
Gotta constantly reduce your peril to keep shriek going
digital narwhal
i'll prob stick to scrier's gaze since I'm a damage crackhead
I'll probably run Telekine Shield if Warp Unleashed survives
red wind
also the empower keystone seems just a little busted
digital narwhal
also the empower keystone seems just a little busted
Could be; we'll have to wait and see
red wind
i just hope it's not joever for blaze psyker, using your ult and then regaining all 6 warp charges immediately was funny
still hearth
Well you wont need warp charges hopefully
spice veldt
i imagine that they'll play with cooldowns
if they ever decide to include ascendant blaze
e.g., increase your CD by 25% to make your ult inflict soulblaze
digital narwhal
Well you wont need warp charges hopefully
Hopefully they're made to be an addition instead of a necessity, yeah
red wind
at the very least surge psyker seems to be more viable with the rework
on paper, anyway
viral solstice
if they ever decide to include ascendant blaze
red wind
im still not too sure as to what role they think a psyker should fill in a team, its like pseudo support with the shield and stuns or whatever
spice veldt
🤔
cyan notch
why surge psyker
still hearth
at the very least surge psyker seems to be more viable with the rework
Because you can opt to not give up your weapon right?
digital narwhal
I'm betting that Ascendant Blaze and Kinetic Barrage are two of the nodes linked to "Venting Shriek"
red wind
Because you can opt to not give up your weapon right?
yeah because lightning is your blitz now
digital narwhal
Then again, Kinetic Barrage could be linked to Brain Burst.
cyan notch
they aint say nun about surge
digital narwhal
red wind
so... surge staff buff or what?
red wind
I'm betting that Ascendant Blaze and Kinetic Barrage are two of the nodes linked...
honestly if it is that's just more reason to use shriek anyway
otherwise gaze would be a direct upgrade
or shield
i hope the shield is actually good lol
digital narwhal
I'd imagine Shriek would have at least 1 nice AOE option on it
and hopefully that's Ascendant Blaze
still hearth
Shriek gonna be weird af
red wind
ascendant blaze but also give it the functionality of wildfire intrinsically for shits and giggles
still hearth
Also what does it even do before the keystone
If the empowered version is the current shout
spice veldt
Shriek gonna be weird af
we're going to see psykers blow up a lot more

Helly eah

still hearth
I'm not a fan of "assail does not consume charges"
Why is it charge based
Let me spam peril to shoot missiles
cyan notch
thats just lame bb
digital narwhal
It'd be funny if they had Shriek do direct damage lmao
teal needle
Empower makes it not take a charge to shoot
red wind
i wonder if peril as a whole will remain an integer or not
cyan notch
it has to be more original
teal needle
So fire trauma > shard > repeat
still hearth
It also says "charges"
Not charge
Idk if its like a time thing that you have infinite power
Who knows
red wind
what does
red wind
the knives or whatever?
cyan notch
magic missile ammo
red wind
hm
i feel like i still might use brain burst
especially after the buff
the problem with that is that since warp charges aren't like... intrinsic anymore it might do less damage overall
cyan notch
u never know pretty hard to tell just fake theorycrafting it
red wind
well obviously
still hearth
I assume the intention is that it stays at roughly the same value as rn
Anything else is wild
red wind
brain burst needed a buff anymore imo
still hearth
The Empower for it seems pretty neat
red wind

digital narwhal

Bb gets a 50% damage boost based on what they've put out so far
digital narwhal
I wonder if Telekine Shield is breakable or not, or if it's invulnerable to damage-
'cause 15 seconds of an invulnerable shield is
pretty huge
red wind
40 second cooldown is not that much either
digital narwhal
Nothing can get close to me anyway.
still hearth
Just have two psykers
digital narwhal
40 second cooldown is not that much either
And it could be lower with Warp Siphon.
red wind
hm
still hearth
So you can be invulnerable while moving
red wind
yeah that zealot ult will be a little strong
still hearth
It's like 4s for a 60s cd
red wind
yeah but 4s of just straight up invincibility if you play it right
red wind
0.8 is definitely a number
still hearth
Tbh I think the tick rate of the game might have something to do with it
spice veldt
seems like the zealot will be holding out the relic and won't be able to do anything else
cyan notch
yes aint nobody gonna take that
red wind
maybe every 1 second for 4 seconds total just felt ass in playtesting
still hearth
Who knows
red wind
if they playtest
spice veldt
60s base cooldown so it's quite long
digital narwhal
40 second cooldown on Telekine Shield
7.5% CDR per Warp Charge
If Warp Battery survives, that's 45% CDR on Telekine Shield per proc, in ideal scenarios.
Brings it down to a 22 second cooldown.
cyan notch
convince zealots to afk and channel and not to hold W and fly 200m ahead challenge (impossible)
red wind
now the question is whether or not the shield recharges while you have it up
digital narwhal
If the "10% CDR for Class Ability on Elite/Specialist kill" survives, then you could lower it even further too.
red wind
because then that cuts it down to, in essence, 13 seconds? or what
digital narwhal
Warp Siphon + Telekine Shield could make you theoretically near invulnerable to anything, as long as you use a weapon with strong CC to deal with melee enemies.
spice veldt
just a year since release
if there aren't any free damage feats, then i'll prob take scrier's
red wind
still
spice veldt
even with warp weapon
s
or i'll be free to take non-force weapons specifically because of scrier's
digital narwhal
if there aren't any free damage feats, then i'll prob take scrier's
I'm gonna put myself on the line.
If Warp Unleashed doesn't survive, I'll delete my Psyker.
I'm that confident.
cyan notch
bro is gonna have 10s buff
red wind
i wonder if this will just be a class rework or if theyll add some more weapons or whatever
also im assuming this patch is where all the dev team went which is why it wa so hollow until now
digital narwhal
Warp Unleashed is a way too influential skill to just kill off.
I'm sure it'll show up independently of Scrier's.
upper galleon
doesn't make sense the only damage bonus being scriers and no passives
scrier is meant to work with guns, melee, or at best, transfer peril weapons
still hearth
What if we don't need damage buffs anymore
red wind
is that not warp battery on the bottom
upper galleon
you always need damage buffs
digital narwhal
is that not warp battery on the bottom
Most likely is from the looks of it, but don't count on it.
Just in case.

60 damage ticks are huge against the medium size enemies

Also Blaze Trauma OP: proceeds to show blaze doing like 60 damage at most

That's what voidstrike could be. Staff most in need of a rework...
still hearth
Idk I enjoy the bowling ball
olive ember
eh voidstrike would be good if they gave it actually infinite cleave
or atleast
like plasma gun levels of cleave
spice veldt
i do hope they play more with the cleave mechanics
still hearth
Plasma Gun cleaves 5 targets though
spice veldt
plasmagun does not have a lot of cleave
still hearth
olive ember
does it?
still hearth
Or 4
teal needle
I enjoy the bowling ball up until 5 when it doesn't kill anything
still hearth
Voidstrike should just do damage on its aoe as well
olive ember
give voidstrike actually good cleave so it can atleast fill its roll of ranged horde clear
still hearth
The AoE does like 20% of the shots damage or something
Or remove the AoE explosion
And go full on railgun
spice veldt
my idea was to distribute the damage based on the amount of cleave consumed
so if you hit a groaner which has 0.75 hitmass, you'll inflict 0.75/6 of the "net" damage
since its main gimmick is having a decent amount of cleave and no damage falloff, and then having its damage values balanced around these two things
vast hare
eh voidstrike would be good if they gave it actually infinite cleave
IT do tho? I've never seen a voidstrike NOT hit an entire horde.That's kind of why its uber good

Iirc voidstrike only hits like 7 targets
vast hare
I've seen that thing nuke entire lines of poxxers. I don't believe it
My ears don't lie! I hear that ffffft
spice veldt
it has infinite cleave if the server lags, but the projectile will still terminate on the spot where its cleave was all consumed

another interesting thing is that battle meditation isn't a keystone anymore
i assumed that got moved behind scrier

100 baseline damage, and we don't know for sure if it can hit heads; I believe Hank mentioned they might though.
Plus, do remember that we get multiple of them.

the problem is the vraks has autogun damage drop off which hits its bodyshot breakpoints REALLY BAD. its what makes them feel bad to use. you will just kind of hate your life after awhile. I tried to make vraks 7 work for a long time and it just feels like a worse helbore.

I thiiiink we'll have to hope that they prioritise heads.

it'll be difficult to avoid a DPS meta unless they make everything so unbelievably tanky, and it seems that they're going into the direction of tacking damage on top of CC stuff
like powderburn did

which makes it a lot better, the only downside imo is the weird less recoil while moving

spice veldt
and scaling up to +30% damage
olive ember
Imo scrier is gonna be pretty dogshit with BB
spice veldt
the wording is a little ambiguous, but that could mean up to +40% damage
teal needle
Hmm if you were going max bb i wonder if you'd want warp charges or empower
upper galleon
oh yea not scrier BB
true lake
thats if transfer peril will still exist
olive ember
Way too much peril gain to actually use more than one BB
true lake
no idea if its going to be a talent you can choose or not
olive ember
Atleast that’s my prediction
upper galleon
i'd probably go shriek (current F) with BB
cause KB is still there in the tree I think I saw
thorn tapir
Im honestly REALLY excited for the utility of the dome shield. Seems kind of incredibly broken to me especially when you can have like 70% up time on it,.
teal needle
Way too much peril gain to actually use more than one BB
Empower makes it cheap free
spice veldt
battle meditation wasn't one of the listed keystones
but I think it's behind scrier since there's a node with some downward arrows, which is presumably some "quell on kill" thing
potent echo
We have no idea how much BB costs tho
true lake
no idea, we just know its modified from what it is now
potent echo
True flight volley having ammo probably means no peril cost
teal needle
With empower bb is free
true lake
it likely wont be very good without the talents though, at least not near as good as it would be normally
teal needle
True flight will also have unlimited ammo if you can get like 15 kills between each shot with empower
thorn tapir
I hope they keep the talent that makes a target take +% more damage after BB. I love the utility of it on bosses.
Pump up your zealots thrust thunderhammer smack even more. YAY MULTIPLICITIVE.
potent echo
I wonder if KB is still a thing
spice veldt
an empowered BB is also +50% damage
kinetic barrage seems to have been morphed into the empowered psionics thing
100% peril cost reduction and 50% cast time reduction
spice veldt
it's why i figured that some of our existing stuff has been also morphed

Not sure that's even confirmed yet. Not saying it can't happen though
potent echo
Also you can channel it as long as you hold down lmb, from catshark's reply
potent echo
Yea I'm talking about smite
spice veldt
potent echo
What’s the difference between charge and channel? Is it basically primary fire vs secondary fire?
Generally charging is done before the attack, and channelling is the attack!
spice veldt
channeling is the same as charging, if you use the terminology from Focused Channeling
true lake
it doesnt seem it will do huge damage, maybe the damage is based on how the blitz is focused?
like more damage if the lightning is focused on one enemy?
spice veldt
i assume that it'll have some damage falloff
true lake
the main thing is how it stuns enemies

voidstrike slander
true lake
because thats the main thing the surge staff is used for
voidstrike aint that bad, i got a really fun one with surge blessing
spice veldt
seems like the # of enemies that you can stun scales based on the amount you charge
true lake
surge blessing with warp nexus be really fun
potent echo
Makes them do the cat breakdance
spice veldt
surge's advantage will presumably be its lock-on range if it stays the way it is and/or it'll be reworked to be better in some way
potent echo
I'm trying to think which abilities would suit my purgatus staff
spice veldt
since my impression of smite is that it'll be a fairly short-ranged blitz
potent echo
It would be either bb or assail, and maybe shield?
true lake
depends on what kind of stuff you want your build to do
spice veldt
i'm gonna go all into damage, assuming that force swords keep their infinite dodges
true lake
you could keep the current F ability, or you could go into shield to be a good support purgatus, etc
teal needle
I like void strike and i want it to succeed. But also bringing voidstrike into 5s feels like I'm trolling my team
potent echo
Idk if AB is still in this game
true lake
voidstrike kind of falls off in higher difficulties sadly
but it does have potential
if the surge blessing was a little better i feel it would have a really good niche
because having 2 hits per hit would be very good against some enemies
potent echo
I watched some guy play voidstrike maelstrom recently, it's great at range
But close up he is just melee all the way
true lake
yeah close up that void strike aint doing anything
teal needle
If a fully charged vs shot can't kill a gunner i legit just don't see the point
potent echo
Also uses it during hordes with a bit of quell cancelling
teal needle
Just bring a gun and kill the gunner faster
true lake
i mean, if we are talking the elite gunner, its not too hard to shoot another shot at them or have a teammate hit him quickly too
spice veldt
crab remarked on it being 12m
true lake
the charged up shot for void strike is more for AoE than extra damage
spice veldt
the charged shot is for cleave and damage
a non-charged void is fairly meh and will have 2 cleave at minimum
teal needle

Not too hard to run a good weapon and just kill it either

horde wise the void strike charged shot aint too bad
if you like spam channel it it can chew through a decent amount at ranged
olive ember
I mean the voidstrike has the aoe explosion to help clear out pure trash

teal needle
I dunk on vs because i'd like to see it buffed
true lake
maybe i should revisit trauma, i got a trauma staff with rending on it and havent given it a proper try yet
olive ember
I dunk on the voidstrike because surge isn’t the worst staff
spice veldt
rending is whatever for pub games
true lake
just never got used to the secondary and how it works
i only went with rending because what RNG rolled for me
that and idk how effective the soulblaze is
teal needle
Blaze generally beats rending but you can run with rending
potent echo
Does trauma get warpnexus
olive ember
Yes
true lake
trauma got warp nexus yeah
teal needle
Trauma is a good staff for high level stuff, it clears dense hordes and you can keep yourself safe by just kind of blasting your own feet if you need to
true lake
oh damn didnt know you could blast it at your own feet
maybe i should use some resources and try to make that soulblaze one
olive ember
Just remember when you feel like you don’t know something
potent echo
Do people go flurry + blaze or nexus + blaze
olive ember
A guy on Reddit was super confidently praising how good the surge staff was
potent echo
I go flurry + rending
olive ember
But didn’t know you could stun mutants with it
teal needle
The disclaimer for trauma is it knocks stuff around at the edges of the aoe without killing them, which could result in your team getting surrounded. So if you smear enemies around keep blasting them to finish them
potent echo
I use trauma at the edges of the horde
So the enemies get blasted towards the middle
spice veldt
if you see a psword/hsword/illisi/bullbutcher player, don't use the trauma near them and let them do their thing
teal needle
Also learn quell canceling so you have a mid range way of killing specials <<
potent echo
Yea just trauma the parts that are leaking, you don't need to pretend you are helping by blasting the horde
olive ember
if you see a psword/hsword/illisi/bullbutcher player, don't use the trauma near ...
Nahhh I spam trauma at them
It’s more efficient anyways
true lake
so use it as an area denial rather than directly punching holes in the horde

Any stray poxwalkers going for the side shank? Exploded

It’s more efficient anyways

Psword or illisi or bb users gonna butcher the horde without your help anyway
spice veldt

true lake
i hope they nerf psword a bit

armour mods, stagger, and damage need to be tuned down

Yea my role is mainly to ensure no attack connects with anyone on the team
spice veldt
it's better than than the illisi in that regard obviously
true lake
definitely better than obscurus
spice veldt
but it's my stance that hordeclear melee weapons should never have good mobility
true lake
i dont see anyone use that one anymore lol
spice veldt
nor should such hordeclear melee weapons have decent single-target or armour mods
illisi makes no tradeoffs to have the advantages that it has
true lake
yeah thats a fair point
teal needle
We're all traumatized from when it was the only force sword still
spice veldt
the obscurus was fine
true lake
its not directly OP but with no tradeoffs it does kind of just do everything

id argue its disgustingly op

I’m having great fun with the illisi XD
spice veldt
i'm having fun as well
lyric burrow
i mean i think shovel is like a perfect example of a horde clear weapon
spice veldt
but I'll also have fun if the illisi gets nerfed
lyric burrow
and how it should be balanced
olive ember
I wouldn’t
true lake
i have the same stance as i would with other games when it comes to weapon balance, if the higher difficulties become literally impossible without having to rely on some cheese mechanic or improperly balanced weapon, then maybe its not the weapon's fault
lunar hollow
what in the world are u talkin about... both ogryn and vet shovels are subpar damage wise compared to other weapons for better stagger
lyric burrow
illisi is just more broken
olive ember
Obscures meta?
true lake
well we have to see what the update will do to enemies
teal needle
Yeah illisi just needs to not kill elites so fast. Then it just fills a niche wel
lunar hollow
they aren't horde clear at all lmao
true lake
i think they are changing HP values around and stuff
lunar hollow
like both have hard target caps

shovel does fine horde clearing in my exp

to enable u to use melee
olive ember
except make it actually good and not a meme
Cuz moonlight greatsword has been a meme for two fromsoft games now smh
lunar hollow
and the ogryn shovel is like the same kinda thing but it knocks most enemies on their ass and has a h1 that can stagger ragers out of their attack combos
lyric burrow
i havent used ogryns
lunar hollow
but neither of them do great vs hordes
cuz damage caps, in some cases bad damage values, etc
true lake
would be funny to shoot energy waves
lyric burrow
i mean we can argue what shovel is i just want horde clear weapons to be balanced better
lunar hollow
both shovels could use a bit of tuning up to function properly but that doesnt really matter until we see whats happening on oct 4th
vocal sundial
i think there's a bug in the game
i can't make 3 orange weapons after winning 1 mission anymore
potent echo
Feature was removed
lyric burrow
when i used shovel with decimator it did fine in horde management but i might have a different definition of what does well vs a horde
vocal sundial
Feature was removed
why does fatshark hate us
lunar hollow
it's good for stagger/cc
but the damage on it is kinda sadge
u can handle urself in a horde (which is true of most weapons)
but its gimped by stupid fatshark design decisions from a rushed release like target damage caps
lyric burrow
yeah thats all im really trying to say it does
spice veldt
the meta stuff clears 40 poxwalkers in 7 seconds or less (and that's when they're ramping up their stacks), so that's the baseline I'm running by
lyric burrow
it doesnt horde clear for me and i die for not knowing melee
but it is capable of handling a horde
even if it sucks compared to a lot of other stuff
teal needle
Hordes get a lot denser in damnation and a lot of melee weapons drop off there. Almost every weapon can do hordes up to heresy in my exp
lyric burrow
yeah malice/heresy it doesnt matter lol
lunar hollow
heresy is where u get to the last dif where stuff like an evis rev consistently 1 shots muties and whatnot
lyric burrow
you can use w/e
spice veldt
prob a lot easier to hit breakpoints on 250 hp poxwalkers
lunar hollow
but generally speaking we measure weapons by their performance in damnation/damnation+
lyric burrow
i was referring to damnation
i havent tried it in auric yet
not that they get more health
spice veldt
groaners also have 150hp on heresy which is quite a step down from 200hp
lyric burrow
realistically the only melee weapons that bother me is illisi/deimos/hsword/psword
BB is good but it is at least weak against armor and single target is more reasonable
spice veldt
illisi and psword especially bother me because of their decent armour mods
100% against everything except carapace (75%) and unyielding (175%)
lyric burrow
yeah they just do everything
lunar hollow
the stagger values on psword activations/illisi are so stupid
teal needle
Yeah illisi and psword shouldn't wreck elites as fast as like knives do
spice veldt
i don't care about melee weapons having good single-target so deimos gets a pass from me, but I do hope that it gets balanced (or that other weapons get raised to its baseline)
lunar hollow
if u couldnt like
run at a bunch of ragers
and spam special attacks to keep them all staggered
lyric burrow
like they could just bring stuff up to make it so you actually need illisi level weapons to manage but i think thats not the best way to do it
lunar hollow
that is a considerable change right there
lyric burrow
if illisi just had worst single target across the board and probably infinite dodges removed id be much more ok with it despite the insane horde clear
spice veldt
p much
lyric burrow
5 dodges is near infinite anyway
spice veldt
and worse flak/carapace/maniac damage
it having unyielding damage is fine and whatever to me
lyric burrow
im not putting that to use often anyway lol
spice veldt
melee weapons having >100% unyielding is one of the things that I won't say no to
and esp with psyker having the same consecutive dodge cooldown as the zealot
lyric burrow
ideally it would be on weapons meant for single target but if they dont wanna make things that hard stuck into roles its fine
i actually like that t hammer doesnt do super well with hordes but destroys single target which is why it doesnt bother me
but i know not everyone feels that way
biggest downside for me is it puts you in a weird spot for ranged weapon
spice veldt
balance-wise i'm fine with it, but i dislike the inherent design of being over-specialized
teal needle
Only problem with t hammer is it shows up the eviscerator so hard 😉
lyric burrow
i think thats just cause evis sucks
teal needle
Yeah that's the joke
spice veldt
and the hammer being built to take advantage of zealot's current ult
lyric burrow
rather than hammer being op
yeah it does work well with that
although a lot of things do
hsword does cause its maniac damage is crazy
so it destroys mutants
spice veldt
mostly all of the damage being loaded in slow hits, so the single melee attack buff that the ult gives gets a lot of value from the thammer
teal needle
I really do hope they give the evisc an upgrade pass though
lyric burrow
it needs a lot of help
mainly cleave
even with SS its like
not great
esp since cleave in this game on the good stuff is pretty high
idk what was standard in VT2
my actual biggest wish is that they make it so poxbursters dont knock other poxbursters into you on explosion
even if you just pushed them

Or give each other stagger resistance
teal needle
But doesn't always line up just right
lyric burrow
yeah push into F works well
potent echo
If one explodes while the other is midleap, the midleap one becomes stagger resistant

might make weird situations
but the current situation is also weird

ive been using trauma illisi recently too
spice veldt
trauma's stagger is a blessing and a curse, so I prefer to avoid using if I can
and diving ranged patrols with the illisi is very nice
lyric burrow
once i figured out it hits the same breakpoints as deimos anyway i was like oh
ill just bring illisi
languid tusk
usually I play illisi to keep my peril high by spamming special, but with trauma my peril is always high anyways so I tried deimos. I like how deimos does so much damage you dont even need the special to kill mutants lol
digital narwhal
I like Trauma + Illisi personally.
I'm hopeing that Smite's single target version will be fairly high damage.
I know it probably won't be near Brain Rupture levels of damage, but... I don't wanna sacrifice my consistent ranged single target "fuck you" when using Smite.
Ya know?
I want it to be usable, at least.
