psyker-class

[pine hearth]

ive just been running straight knives, with a trauma incase I get in a crappy situation

[vivid silo]

And how is the damage against bosses it was hard for me to tell how much I was doing

[left hare]

i just like that i can absolutely disappear gunners

[left hare]

At last i can do a big F U to all gunners

[rose dagger]

Smite is infinite with empowered psionics it seems
Seems balanced

[humble swan]

damage from staves is considered warp, right

[teal needle]

Yes

[long wharf]

oh Fatshark, never change

[gilded viper]

I’m sure there will be a “meta” build, but there is so much that works, I wouldn’t worry about super optimization

[long wharf]

nor do any QA yourself

[pine hearth]

I also beleive that the specials from force swords are warp damage

iirc

[vivid silo]

Ty

Does assail seem to do good DMG vs bosses?

[lofty temple]

NVM psyker SUCKs

[red wind]

ok so in my first iteration of the flame build i desperately wanted to use assail and as a result i've missed out on wildfire

[pine hearth]

yeah, just wrecked one of the captains with it

if you aim it

[red wind]

now that i am running brain burst again wildfire is back

so this build is about 10% better

[spice oar]

Dueling sword stab heavies now are actually kinda busted

Like better than deimos busted

[rocky hedge]

whats the trick to the flat sheild? I keep placing it wrong, it turns and doesnt go flat, if that makes sense?

bubble sheild is cute and amazing though

[lofty temple]

Investing in Dueling Swords was worth it brothers

[proven stirrup]

Right cuz a fucky tooltip is the worst thing ever

[whole oxide]

one button turns them around 90 degrees, other button to place

[patent steeple]

is Illisi Fsword still decent?

[viral solstice]

btw the knives have great swap speed

[rocky hedge]

what buttons on pc?

[wet belfry]

Well i always liked dueling sword more then the deimos.

[viral solstice]

https://medal.tv/games/warhammer-40000-darktide/clips/1wUEX4hfULJICH/d1337ClQ6CqM?invite=cr-MSxMUk4sMTU3ODYzOTYwLA

you can swap them off duelling sword heavies like a qq cancel

if yoiu need to

[whole oxide]

whatever your have set your keybindings to

[rocky hedge]

man idk even know what im doing lmao

[viral solstice]

so just every low target melee weapon u can just swap through knives for antoher 3 targets

[rocky hedge]

base music video

[plucky flax]

No blazing spirit 4 on trauma whyyyyy

[proven stirrup]

I get such a wild kick out of that music playing while you slaughter

[viral solstice]

[whole oxide]

ya, but, basically doubled its direct damage, which is nuts

[lyric prism]

ok so i turned into emperor palpatine ....

[plucky flax]

Yeah tru

[lyric prism]

lemme record this holy shit

this is damnation 5 btw

[left hare]

i have no clue what's happening lol

[plucky flax]

I'm still testing in the meatgrinder for a bit. Gonna try first game on psyker soon.

[proven stirrup]

also what the fuck are these knives? new weapon?

[maiden mica]

blitz

[whole oxide]

assail is not as bonkers as i thought it would be, 'cos you have to stay in line of sight and wait for it to travel, no peeping and ducking like BB

[proven stirrup]

Oh right ok

[viral solstice]

knife swap fun time

[left hare]

can it slaughter packs of gunners tho

[proven stirrup]

Wild

[long wharf]

assail stays on target if you drop back into cover, though?

[red wind]

guys

i think 6 warp charges immediately recharges the dome

like, fully

[proven stirrup]

Uhhhhh

[worldly chasm]

I blew myself up in Pyshkarnium, got downed, died and game crashed, I don't know what to say about that

[proven stirrup]

That's not busted at all, no sir

[whole oxide]

it selects targets wherever you're looking, so, if you stop looking at enemies then it won't go there

[proven stirrup]

Game telling you to git gudder

[hot epoch]

Psyched too hard

[worldly chasm]

Testing to hard 😄

[proven stirrup]

The true perils of the warp

[hot epoch]

the game crashing is a warp manifestation

honestly big pog so far

[red wind]

no yeah at 6 warp charges the dome immediately recharges

pair that with brain burst and you can just stay in a dome forever

you brain burst elites faster than it runs out

[lyric prism]

so i found a way to infinetly use warp attacks

[red wind]

wtf

[sacred harbor]

i dunno what to build now and im too lazy to read :(

[proven stirrup]

Hold on I need to jump into this shit

This is wild

[red wind]

i dont think the game is supposed to work like this

[left hare]

what does wild rider do?

[red wind]

i can get 4 domes up if i try hard enough

[snow coral]

oh damn this is nice

[left hare]

up to +20% dmg from all sources

does it make ME take that lol?

[red wind]

i think that just means you do 20% more damage

[left hare]

the from is weird

[spiral escarp]

where?

[red wind]

5 domes

i got 5 domes up

[empty onyx]

Sadly it also reset all the loadouts we had already made.

[red wind]

at once

what. the. fuck.

[long wharf]

okay, so the real question is - do melee weapon blessings still activate on other attacks while melee weapon is held

[red wind]

5 domes

and they regen your toughness

and block bullets

[left hare]

yo quietude + expenditure

Looks kinda pog

[long wharf]

assail nonsense +

[left hare]

i need to try rolling for crit chance lol

[hot epoch]

Wait, werent there loadout slots?

[red wind]

3 domes is very very consistent, 4 takes some practice and 5 is very situational, but this is nonetheless extremely fucking funny

[long wharf]

yes, but they got wiped

[red wind]

i thought it was a bug with the psykarium or whatever but no, 6 warp charges just regens the dome

[hot epoch]

Removed or cleared?

[left hare]

Domes block projectiles and give u toughness ddamage reduction this shit seems busted lol

[red wind]

wrong screenshot but still

[hot epoch]

lmao show build

[red wind]

this is very wacky

[hot epoch]

loony toons music

[spiral escarp]

Where do I find them?

[long wharf]

wiped. removed.

you still have all of your gear and such

[hot epoch]

[long wharf]

just the saved loadouts from before the patch are gone

[red wind]

wasn't even trying to do this, just so happens to occur with the flame build im doing, the premise is just infinite warp charges

[hot epoch]

Makes sense, makes sense

[plucky flax]

Dayuum I'm just testing and blaze trauma seems super op now.

[hot epoch]

Removed means we dont have loadouts At all

so they were cleared

[long wharf]

ok sure, cleared

tell me this isn't swank

[hot epoch]

I have that same outfit

[long wharf]

"time to purge with the warp, yall"

[echo cosmos]

Daddy Palpatine has returned

[left hare]

Somehow

[red wind]

is this in the game currently or one of the modded outfits

[long wharf]

premium cosmetic

[hot epoch]

Its in the game

premium cosmetic

[long wharf]

EA

[red wind]

woaw!!

[hasty viper]

Is it me or does the surge staff stun is…not always occurring ?

[warped kernel]

yeah the original brain burst talents are insane now for regening your combat ability. I went for a full wildfire build with trauma blazing spirit and as long as you target elites, you F and then can just keep going

[hazy locust]

Builds for Space Wizards

[red wind]

epic!

[sterile saddle]

They made it more of a dmg weapon now, it only ministuns

[lyric prism]

https://tenor.com/view/unlimited-power-star-wars-gif-10270127

[hasty viper]

Oh okay, because sometimes it stuns and sometimes nope. So stun is a bonus now…
The damage is good though

[snow coral]

oh I had never made any... and I'm not seeing how you do it with this now? what do you do to save the loadout?

[lyric prism]

pls dont mind the horrible sound quality and clicking noises 🥲

[hot epoch]

Hrrrm

[red wind]

this has gotta be a bug right

[sterile saddle]

The 'smite' is more of a stun ability

[lapis bay]

Gotta love the infinite smite ability

[zinc phoenix]

So before I thought unlimited power smite is op but on damnation maybe not

[lyric prism]

it has to be xD

[zinc phoenix]

Damage is really increased

[snow coral]

ah, I see, little plus up in the corner

[lapis bay]

Legit walking through 0% peril shocking everything hahahahaha

[zinc phoenix]

And you’re super vulnerable to rear attack with it

Because it only smites what you can see

[hasty viper]

Oh yeah, having fun living my best palpatine life and perma stun for 30 seconds with psionic charge

[zinc phoenix]

It’s super strong but I’ve been killed a couple times while using it

[brazen warren]

https://tenor.com/view/rotating-banana-meme-rotating-banana-banana-faster-faster-and-faster-gif-18265963

spin real fast, no blind spots then

[zinc phoenix]

it stops stunning stuff when you spin

it only maintains stun on stuff in your FOV

ive played several damnation runs with new smite

[left hare]

but what if i max my fov

[warped kernel]

also Scrier's Gaze with precognition and blazing spirit builds that give you warp charges on fire kills seems quite strong

[left hare]

🧠

[zinc phoenix]

i honestly dont know what would happen

[warped kernel]

you maintain damage after it ends and with something like Illisi you go to town

[lyric prism]

further testing seems to show it is a bug

[viral solstice]

https://medal.tv/games/warhammer-40000-darktide/clips/1wUMVWmJsYcTDp/d1337kgQ5NKv?invite=cr-MSxGOXcsMTU3ODYzOTYwLA

[lyric prism]

gimme a moment lads

[viral solstice]

its fun just quickswappin with knives

[left hare]

why dueling sword

[zinc phoenix]

thats a lot of work when you could just papa palpatine them until they die

[viral solstice]

this is because the knives are fun

[zinc phoenix]

fair nuff

[viral solstice]

if i wanted to do no work i would do this

[zinc phoenix]

im tempted to try magic sperm

[north cradle]

Overpowering Souls looks insane

[viral solstice]

https://medal.tv/games/warhammer-40000-darktide/clips/1wUxx3CJZF2UL9/d13371seyKCY?invite=cr-MSx1Z0csMTU3ODYzOTYwLA

and its like yeah u can just go ep knives and spam

[steel flame]

oh jsus christ

[viral solstice]

but why not live ur life

[hasty viper]

Assail is so good too, I love my magic crystal

[steel flame]

the m1 on the surge staffs is fucking insane now

holy shit

[left hare]

for the knives are you aiming above them or you actually need to headshot them

[lyric prism]

scries gaze is gonna get bonked so hard xD

[zinc phoenix]

the number of people ive seen accidentally bursting themselves with magic knifes is hilarious

its not as good as it looks because peril management with them is really tough

[shy warren]

you can stunlock monstrosities with the new lightning

[hot epoch]

aim up a little

[lyric prism]

ok so no, this is legit, it isnt a meatgrinder thing it seems

[viral solstice]

the knives get launched in a direction then try and hit ur mouseover target

[lyric prism]

enjoy being emperor palpatine everyone 😄

[zinc phoenix]

i definitely wasnt able to stun lock plage ogry, bon or chaos spawn

[viral solstice]

so yeet em up if u wanna be careful

[steel flame]

so uh

the crit chance on the m1 for surge staff is now like 80% and it can be spammed even faster than it could before

[viral solstice]

yes 15% toughness on warp kill is completely broken yes don't worry about it just enjoy it

[hasty viper]

Really? Didn’t work for me until now

[zinc phoenix]

that shit is insane lmao

but with how fast damage comin in on damnation now idk

[viral solstice]

5% toughness on crit? and each knife crits 3 times on proc? and u get 15% per ep knife?

damn das crazy

75% toughness a knife thats definitely good

[copper charm]

Damn...seer with knives is unhinged...like the base one is like happy psych ward patient with imagine friends but when he gets the knives here goes creepy factor.
My beloved says....KILL

[unreal dust]

So... is Telekine Shield just bugged? I went the dome version, but for some reason I still get 3 charges of it...

[zinc phoenix]

whatever the state of balance i really like the new changes

[zinc phoenix]

i only get one dome charge how you do this

dome is actually really good btw

[viral solstice]

yeah it's way more fun this is just... a somewhat vintage build

[unreal dust]

I don't know!

[broken quail]

scriers gaze sure does feel weird to use, peril gen scales exponentialy so there is no real sense of maintaining it, though that's why lingering for 10 seconds makes sense I suppose.

Extended duration is mandatory if your using disrupt destiny, and I think the revolver might be the best weapon to really take advantage of disrupt destiny thanks to the range, equip time, and enemy penetration

[hasty viper]

I want more, even if my recharge is like 30 seconds lmao

[zinc phoenix]

the amount of toughness you get from dome regen is insane

[red wind]

4 domes, you can see the 4th one disappearing on the left lmfao

it seems you dont even need all 6 charges

[zinc phoenix]

and blocking all shooters and even snipers with domes is wild

[red wind]

like.... 4 does it?

maybe 5

[primal plume]

https://tenor.com/view/lightning-palpatine-sheev-palpatine-power-star-wars-gif-16503984

This has been me every game

[warped kernel]

what is the talent interaction to make the assail shards come back so fast?

[hot epoch]

Mark the date, 3/10/2023, the date snipers became a non issue

[red wind]

wait what the fuck

[zinc phoenix]

gotta be empower it gives unlimited charge

[lyric prism]

how do you do that?

[red wind]

it seems that 1 warp charge is enough to not use up a dome charge

[primal plume]

It blocks bombs and flames too

[red wind]

this is definitely some form of bug

[true lake]

snipers thinking they hot shit after i pull out my maxed out disrupt destiny precision bonus stub revolver

[steel flame]

so uh get this, with scriers gaze, the surge staff m1 has a crit chance 74%, every crit grants ranged immunity, and 20% toughness regen with crit and warp kill, the can be spammed even faster, and the crits do 500+ damage per hit

[unreal dust]

Snipers still puncture the dome

I've been tagged hard

[zinc phoenix]

ikr? i just pop dome and wait for someone to shoot, no fucks given

[hot epoch]

Skill issue

Didnt dome hard enough

[zinc phoenix]

they can pop it but they cant shoot thru it

[zinc phoenix]

what in the actual fuck is your build lmao

[viral solstice]

empowered psionics generate charge on elite kill

[red wind]

yeah too bad that i can stack 30 FUCKING DOMES!!!!!

[viral solstice]

charge doesn't spend

[red wind]

#1158835513789272126 message

[zinc phoenix]

is this a meatgrinder thing?

[red wind]

idk, doesn't seem to be

i gain enough warp charges to recharge the dome before it runs out

it's like...... i doubt this is intentional?

[lyric prism]

damn 😄

[zinc phoenix]

honestly it might be because dome spam is fuckin funny

[viral solstice]

i wonder

(it is not)

[rose dagger]

Void strike staggers monsters now?

[warped kernel]

right! thanks

[rose dagger]

Psyker OP

[hot epoch]

nah

[red wind]

moar

[hot epoch]

just right

Have you seen whats going on in the other channels? psykers tame af

[long wharf]

what in the emperor's name

[warped kernel]

lol!

they're gonna fix that

[hasty viper]

My sibling will protect whole tertium at this rate

[rose dagger]

Def gonna fix empowered psionics

Infinite smite is silly too

[hasty viper]

UNLIMITED POWWERRRRRR

[red wind]

it also stacks kinetic resonance if you look at the buffs 😭

because it procs every time you use your combat ability

what in the everliving fuck were they thinking with this

[hybrid solstice]

idk why i thought scier's gaze only worked for ranged weapons

[queen fog]

Lol fair a few videos did show the ability with gunpsykers

[broken quail]

Perilous combustion is pretty funny since it activate when you kill elite/specials regardless of the weapon

[queen fog]

So I don’t blame u

[red wind]

this is not even 1% of my power

[hybrid solstice]

yeah you can definitely turn it on and just start dumpstering a horde with your sword

[steel flame]

fire sword gonna go brrrrrr now

[north cradle]

Okay, I'm thinking Scryer's Gaze isn't the way to go with a Purgatus/Assail build

[red wind]

i could realistically do this forever

[queen fog]

We love on launch bugs

[stuck bridge]

how is smite

[queen fog]

From what I’ve seen? Very cool

[stuck bridge]

ive heard not great

ohh hmm

[queen fog]

Here check this

#zealot-class message

[long wharf]

if your statement starts with "I've heard", you should probably not even finish your comment

[hasty viper]

Perma stun with psionic charges

[wise cave]

Hello, I think an achievement is bugged atm. So I got this achievement ingame, but received no gear or the other related penances related to it. I also didn't get the Steam achievemen related to it, which is double annoying because it is the last achievement I am missing, Is this a known bug and who can help me?

[stuck bridge]

oh my

[long wharf]

that said, I'm trying to figure out a way to quell reliably while using Assail constantly

[tall mango]

how’s he getting so much damage on it?

[red wind]

most playtested fartshark content release

[stuck bridge]

[true lake]

dear god, he will literally bubble the entire horde

[crimson spear]

how can i do this?

[red wind]

i think if i can get this to work with venting shriek i can do more damage with that than anything else in my arsenal

[red wind]

#1158835513789272126 message

[true lake]

man has become a god

[red wind]

12oz of chaos energy

[wide summit]

not awful

[true lake]

5 hour warp energy

good base stats, lets see what perks and blessings you roll

[wide summit]

hmm

[warped kernel]

feeling a bit torn, empowered psionics definitely recharges the shards faster, but warp siphon makes them do far more damage it seems, but you do end up with 0, so maybe more burst damage whereas empowered psionics is more long term

[true lake]

empowered psionics is more like if you are consistently using the shards often and they are a core part of your damage

[warped kernel]

hm, empowered psionics might be better actually.

yeah for sure

[true lake]

warp siphon is just huge burst damage lol

[warped kernel]

trying to figure out which is better strictly damage wise. does seem like burst vs sustain

though meat grinder is different than in actual gameplay since there's always elites

[true lake]

i would say empowered psionics with the 12.5% upgrade would probably be better to have you using the shards a lot more often

using them more often is easily more damage

[warped kernel]

yeah

[humble swan]

hmm, is now more worth it to play venting shriek or telekine shield on purgatus?

[warped kernel]

gonna try out the 12.5% right now and see how consistent it is

[true lake]

you can also have it so killing an elite guarantees a charge of empowered psionics

so just aim your shards at a group of elites and boom easy spam there too

not sure which of the two is better

i went with elite because elites are very frequent

[warped kernel]

yeah

elites seems better

[late yew]

Anyone came up with good builds yet?

[tall mango]

i think scrier+psionics goes crazy

[warped kernel]

just from my last 30 second test haha

[random cedar]

Just plowed through a heresy mission with 4 other psykers it was amazing

[true lake]

people are experimenting mainly, only build posted is dome spam lopl

[warped kernel]

i like scier's gaze as well slakd

[true lake]

im going for scrier and empowered psionics as well

[warped kernel]

skaldr sorry lol

[true lake]

with focus on crit chance

[warped kernel]

always crit chance

[tall mango]

you get huge damage boost+crit+constant killing will cause EP to trigger more

which is even more damage

[zinc phoenix]

Idk I saw a zealot one shotting basically everything en masse while taking no damage so I’m pretty sure it’s not psyker that’s op

[red wind]

aside from the infinite dome funny, venting shriek + creeping flames allows you to maintain very low peril constantly due to venting's functioanlity + quelling from kills & such, in addition to constantly spamming venting shriek itself to apply more stacks of flame to like everything

[tall mango]

yeah hold on this shits kinda cooked

[true lake]

heretics minding their own business before wheet shows up and blows up the entire hab block with shields that emit fire

[red wind]

wildfire + wrack is a combination i've wanted since day 1 and now it's an actual thing this update is awesome

again, aside from the funny bugs this is a flat upgrade to the old soulblaze build

[teal needle]

Okay new void staff is cranked

Drop shield is cranked

[tall mango]

I’m definitely trying that out next

[true lake]

new void staff wat

[tall mango]

soulblaze build my beloved

[snow coral]

so you can only get warp charges on elite/specialist kills now or am I missing something?

[tranquil fiber]

im unsure if I like the new surge

[teal needle]

Voidstrike is buffed to hell

[true lake]

oh voidstrike

im glad because i got one with surge blessing on it

and i really like the idea of every crit is 2 blasts

[patent steeple]

btw, which duel sword is the best now?

[late yew]

new lightning blitz seems really bad

[tall mango]

its not

the stun is CRAZY good

[long wharf]

has anyone else noticed a lack of enemies being marked via the capstone ability?

[valid marsh]

how good is the trauma staff, now?

[tall mango]

yeah lmao

[viscid matrix]

its really good for close range stun, but we lose long range kill power of bb/assail

[empty onyx]

Alright, the shards are incredibly fun and are definitely getting nerfed. Just did a whole T4 mission without using a weapon.

[tall mango]

this goes hard

[echo cosmos]

Empowered Smite is stupid

You get one stack and everything in a large radius is perma staggered

[warped kernel]

also dont forget you can keep scrier's gaze up as long as it doesnt reach 100 so you can quell before it hits 100 to keep it up

[tall mango]

yep

[warped kernel]

it eventually gets too hard but for a bit you can

i like that mechanic

[long wharf]

nevermind, I forgot I switched off Disrupt Destiny

[red wind]

psyker will be really good even after the nerfs/bug fixes for this

[echo cosmos]

You just. Keep zapping

[red wind]

the synergy is like.... there now

it wasn't really before

the old layout of the feats was really limiting

[echo cosmos]

Once you figure out how to use charged smite, its hellq strong

[raw swift]

guys

[feral inlet]

ive reached psyker support enlightenment

[raw swift]

did the update come out already

[feral inlet]

i can chain domes infinitely

therefore infinite toughness regen

[wide summit]

[true lake]

now for the funny rolls

[tall mango]

yeah void staff fucks

that damage is insane

[wide summit]

yay or nay

[plucky flax]

It's rip.

[tall mango]

rip the blazing spirit

[true lake]

blazing spirit moment

precognition isnt too bad but relies on you actually dodging a lot

[wide summit]

i usually do if im down to the sword

[tall mango]

who needs dodging when you have the dome

[plucky flax]

Slaughterer is still good at 8% power per stack.

[true lake]

slaughterer is always good

[long wharf]

I mean, you don't even need weapons with Assail

[crimson spear]

build?

[true lake]

damn what build makes the knives do 1k damage like that?

i know its scrier gaze but what else

[tall mango]

scriers and EP goes so hard

[late yew]

No, it is not

it is worse than surge staff was

[tall mango]

no?

[long wharf]

surge staff is no longer for CC

[tall mango]

I think youre just using it wrong

[long wharf]

it only hits 2 enemies now

if you want to stunlock things, you have to use the psyker skill now

[late yew]

that's why i said "was" ffs

[late yew]

how can use it wrong

also i barely see any difference between right click and left lcick

[tall mango]

just are? idk

[north cradle]

Aww damn, Volley Fire cooldown starts when the ability ends

[long wharf]

yes, I was confirming and agreeing with you

[tall mango]

left click can stun at max 2-3, right click can stun half a horde

[long wharf]

man, weapons are an afterthought once you get good at managing your peril with Assail, this is great

[blazing oak]

So I’m assuming y’all know about the smite bug right?

[tall mango]

It’s hella good for stunning ogryns and shooter squads

[lapis bay]

seriously hahahah

[long wharf]

hell yeah

[tall mango]

yeah assail is so fucking good

[long wharf]

get the right nodes and you can quell pretty damn fast

[blazing oak]

The infinite smite lightning bug is some of the most fun I’ve had in a while

[tall mango]

how do you get the infinite smite btw?

is it EP?

[blazing oak]

Random

It randomly stops causing peril

[marble aurora]

it's EP

[long wharf]

makes it easy to manage peril even with Scrier's Gaze going

[tall mango]

oh it just happens lmao

[marble aurora]

if you have at least one stack of EP it doesn't generate peril

[tall mango]

holy shit

okay fuck warp charge

[wide summit]

thoughts for asail?

[tall mango]

i’m becoming palpatine

[long wharf]

the talent tree UI needs a zoom factor

[wide summit]

yes

[tall mango]

i’d recommend scrier if you want damage

big agree on that

[long wharf]

for Assail, I went down right side, grabbed Scrier

[blazing oak]

With infinite smite I trivialized the sychorax midpoint

[long wharf]

then went Empowered Psionics

[tall mango]

this here gives huge fucking burst damage, + you can quell to keep it going for a bit longer

[blazing oak]

12 maulers couldn’t do shit

[tall mango]

after a bit it becomes a little too much

but you can clear an entire elite horde

[long wharf]

and made sure I had enough points to get the Solidity node on the left at the bottom (+30% quell speed)

[tall mango]

anyone up for a match?

[long wharf]

I also took Battle Meditation (sorry Bastilla), even though it's not quite reliable

[lapis bay]

What's the go to melee now? Rocking assail and shield

[tall mango]

Illisi is always solid

[true lake]

i still run deimos slaughterer

[long wharf]

who said Warp Flurry was broken?

[brave turret]

Empowered psyonics or distrust destiny?

[north cradle]

At first glance, if you're not using Brain Burst, I'd go with Disrupt Destiny

Just my tuppence there

[hybrid solstice]

man the rully upgraded Assail reloads so fast you can basically use it as a third weapon

[long wharf]

third only

[arctic bloom]

i literally just ran a game where i used nothing else

[north cradle]

Also, Krak Grenades fuck

[hybrid solstice]

as did i

[arctic bloom]

its awk af when theres like 1 unit 5 feet away chasing you tho lol

otherwise it was fun

[true lake]

disrupt destiny is definitely a gun psyker talent

[olive ember]

@long wharf have you heard of the new psyker meta aka surge nexus voidstrike

[true lake]

been trying to tell people the strength of surge blessing but no one listened

whose the fool now

[olive ember]

I mean

Surge was like meme tier before update

But fatshark balancing moment

[dawn wolf]

Yeah I hope they don't end up nerfing it

[north cradle]

I'll post my builds for Voidstrike and Purgatus, lemme know what you guys think

Damn it I can't zoom out, can I?

[late yew]

can't stun mutants though

[steel flame]

The damage output of the surge staff is beyond reasonable. My last match i hit 679k ranged damage

[elder kelp]

Is that a bug ? Seems like i cant use Brain Rupture and Mind in Motion simultaneously bruh, Psyker is unplayable now

[tall mango]

you can two shot them

you don’t need stun

[north cradle]

Can't go up, only down

Or side-to-side

[tall mango]

you can’t because you don’t have the perk before MM

[late yew]

So now if you don't take pushing ult you have no safety back up if you go over peril?

[tall mango]

it’s, weird imo

[north cradle]

Which is impossible to get

[tall mango]

the safety is killing every elite you stare at

[late yew]

Oh, mods still work fine?

[elder kelp]

thats a bad design 😦

[late yew]

So

what left click of assail does?

[steel flame]

Some

[late yew]

and what right does

[north cradle]

Left click is quick throw, right click is charged throw

[late yew]

and yeah, i did not realise that right click of assail can literally stun whole horde

[late yew]

Consideringh how qucik charged one is charging, seems no reason to use left

[olive ember]

You used mind in motion in general?

[olive ember]

Left click is how you wanna use it right click is for sniping

[bold flint]

so how do surge staffers feel about their surge staff

[steel flame]

Busted beyond belief

[late yew]

sniping????

What

[true lake]

might not be a super good CC anymore but damage is insane

[olive ember]

Needs more damage

[late yew]

or wait

or do i confuse names

[dawn wolf]

It aims like brain burst

[late yew]

i meant new lgihting blitz

[hybrid solstice]

call me jesse pinkman i be slinging glass

[blissful dirge]

ok so smite says it deals high damage with the charge but...I think its lying

[late yew]

lightning*

[olive ember]

Oh smite

Right click is aoe left click is “single target”

[true lake]

high damage is if you don't charge it

[olive ember]

Except even the single target is mid

[late yew]

so left click does mroe damage?

[true lake]

left click for most damage yes

[olive ember]

yes but it spreads slower

Or something to that affect

[true lake]

charge for horde stun

[late yew]

Still, that damage seems too low

[blissful dirge]

yeah ok but Derpys right. the left click is garbage

[late yew]

So what weapons would you recommend with smite

[steel flame]

Nah. They uncapped how fast you can quell cancel the m1 and 3ith scrier it has a 75% crit chance with 500+ per shot

[olive ember]

Smite is probably the weakest of the three

[blissful dirge]

I cant kill a gunner with a full bar of peril?

[olive ember]

Eh the fact it takes 3 charges to kill something is ehhh

Needs to double the damage atleast

[true lake]

smite is best as a CC so i would focus your weapons on things that can clear up the crowd while it is stunned

[blazing oak]

Smite is op with EP

[olive ember]

Also voidstrike literally two shots crushers has more cleave more cc and more range

[blazing oak]

No peril gen so infinite cc

[olive ember]

Granted it’s overtuned rn but still

[late yew]

is new surge good?

[olive ember]

New surge is single target

Think like BB levels of damage

[true lake]

very high damage but is single target more now

[blazing oak]

Well it’s few target

[olive ember]

3 charges to kill a mauler

“Few” but iirc it only does heavy damage to one

[north cradle]

Rate my Voidstrike/Empowered Burst/Scryer talents

[true lake]

really good as an option instead of going BB

[steel flame]

Bruh I'm almost touching 700k damage per match with it rn

[olive ember]

What build

[blazing oak]

Infinite smite lightning go zap with EP

[olive ember]

And what blessings for that matter I guess

[late yew]

I know, i am asking what you think of it

[late yew]

I KNOW

[steel flame]

I'll message it to you when I get home

[tame willow]

lmao

[late yew]

I asked if you think it is good

[blazing oak]

I think it’s good for my support build

[steel flame]

I'll message it to you when I get home

[olive ember]

I haven't run a game with it yet tbh cuz i'm not at home

imo tho its kinda

ehh?

[blazing oak]

Since my cc is with my infinite smite

[olive ember]

3 charges to kill one mauler isn't bad

but

its not amazing either

imo atleast

granted the charge is alot faster now

[teal needle]

Okay further impressions after actually playing with the combo - Surge staff is great, it was unfair to compare it's damage to voidstrike when voidstrike is so busted. It does enough damage. I am not going to use Smite basically ever, the CC is great but auric damnation spawns too much to CC it all and why not just kill it

[steel flame]

M1 is where the damage is not the charge

[hot epoch]

Show me some palpatine builds

[late yew]

also combination of Quititude and Warp Expenditure is stupid lol

so much toughness regen

[olive ember]

yeah but every class is busted this update

which is kinda weird cuz it either means they gotta nerf like everything

or they gotta ramp up difficulty

personally I prefer the latter given how everything is busted

[blazing oak]

Surge staff with ep on elite kill into infinite smite

[zinc phoenix]

So assail and empower kinda suck as a combo

[late yew]

btw, assail with impovered psionics pretty lit

[zinc phoenix]

Bc you want to spam assail but u can’t because assail doesn’t trigger empower

[late yew]

You just hold horde infinitely

[elder kelp]

100% !!! without it the gameplay is dreadful and increase chance of getting hit, introduces time waste while you could spend that time already on focusing someone or killing ect

[blazing oak]

Impoverished psionics

[noble trellis]

the duality of man

[olive ember]

I’m ngl no one here used mind in motion before

[blazing oak]

I did

[olive ember]

Yeah but you’re an outlier >.>

[long wharf]

it's a shame that Smite doesn't do more damage

[blazing oak]

I’m fine as it is

With its room wide cc for infinite duration

[elder kelp]

while i do undestand why people would opt out MM, but to me personally, i just prioritise efficiency and safety

[long wharf]

yeah, I'm sure that's going to be fixed

[olive ember]

left click needs more damage

[true lake]

we didn't use it before because the old system forced us to choose between 3 things and mind in motion was kind of weak in comparison

[low charm]

Is this my damage or taken damage?

[queen fog]

I also did was helpful to ensure I didn’t get left behind squad wise

[queen fog]

Your damage

[true lake]

your damage

[tall mango]

holy fuck i love being emperor palpatine

[olive ember]

it was borderline kinda redundant given how fast you move with staff quelling + dodge spam + sliding

[long wharf]

I don't think Empowered is supposed to be removing peril generation from Smite

[olive ember]

empowered is

[queen fog]

It is

[olive ember]

literally meant to make BB free

[tall mango]

i just held back an entire horde with them unable to do anything

[queen fog]

Empowering goes crazy

[red wind]

ok yeah psyker shields are way too busted, just did a malestrom spamming domes everywhere and literally haven't dropped below 90% toughness the entire time

not a single point of health damage

shooters are a non threat

[tall mango]

the entire dog rush? stunned

it’s so fucking fun

[long wharf]

not according to the text on the ability

[queen fog]

Somehow when u make shooters not a problem the game just becomes so easy

[olive ember]

Tho if you rly want to see crazy build run voidstrike + assail + dueling sword mk 4 with the right node tree

[late yew]

what is that

[lofty temple]

trolling?

[tall mango]

i used mind in motion sometimes

[lofty temple]

or really asking?

[leaden pier]

anything very nutty to make so far?

[late yew]

It does

[tall mango]

literally everything lmao

[lofty temple]

Mind in Motion is nice

[queen fog]

Ur mobility isn’t prevented when quelling peril

[tall mango]

wanna see something REALLY nutty?

[leaden pier]

sure

[late yew]

well i don't think it is nessassary

so assail is really good?

[devout moon]

I'm hoping the 100% peril reduction on Smite with Empowered Psionics is intended and that it's just not on the tooltip because it's so much fun

[marble aurora]

i'm fine with smite being as it is. if it did more damage it'd be way too busted

[zinc phoenix]

It’s both more and less busted than it seems lmao

[devout moon]

It's great crowd control

[blazing oak]

Like the thing that makes the ep smite busted is the ep guaranteed on elite kill

[viral inlet]

smite is supposed to be a crowd control/special stopping tool, surge is the new damage dealer lol

and it works, I love stopping mutants with it

[devout moon]

Yeah, it's really good at CC

[viral inlet]

hold right click on them for 2 seconds and they stop in place

[olive ember]

#psyker-class message

This is my planned build

[late yew]

oh wait

it seems smite is bugged

when you get empowered psionics stack, smite does not cause any peril

[blazing oak]

We’ve been saying that

For the past 20 minutes

[tall mango]

the horde kneels before me

[olive ember]

Empowered pscionics is like anything but smite imo

[tall mango]

https://tenor.com/view/u-unlimited-power-star-wars-lightning-gif-14542323

[late yew]

with surge or smite?

[blazing oak]

Both honestly

[radiant lance]

Smite is so terrible it's crazy

[tall mango]

???????????

[blazing oak]

I wish surge didn’t have the new miss animation

[devout moon]

Smite is amazing

[tall mango]

do you see the video??

[patent steeple]

btw, which dueling sword is best now?

[blazing oak]

The miss animation is not good

[marble aurora]

lmao that mutant

[late yew]

i was not able to stun mutants with smite...

[blazing oak]

I held 12 maulers at stunlock for my team to kill

[tall mango]

just not smiting right

[blazing oak]

With smite

[leaden pier]

imma try out a full crit flame build later

[radiant lance]

The best CC is dead

[blazing oak]

????

[warm meteor]

Knives are fun!

[tall mango]

man these video files are huge

unsure why

[plucky flax]

Psyker and zealot busted af so far. Time to try vet.

[viral inlet]

https://handbrake.fr/ to compress them down to 720p very fast quality preset

[late yew]

with assail it seems you can forget you have weapons?

[tall mango]

Ill use that from now on

appreciated

[long wharf]

or you can use streamable

[warm meteor]

I like throwin a knife, my teammate kills the target before my knife does, then i turn around to look for enemies and the knife yondus its way to killing something behind me lol

[viral inlet]

depends on what you like, I prefer to have local tools to deal with things

[tall mango]

CC goes brrrr

the might of smite

[long wharf]

that's hawt

[warm meteor]

Yeah I used my melee for maybe 30 total seconds on my last mission XD im a regular londoner now!

[tall mango]

god i hope this is intentional

[leaden pier]

got dam that's pretty good

[radiant lance]

I mean why would I use Smite when I can use stuff like Trauma staff to CC AND kill things.

[late yew]

WTF is new void stuff

[tall mango]

1. rule of cool
2. No peril cost

[radiant lance]

That's just me though, if CC is working for you then enjoy it

[viral inlet]

actual nuke, finally fun to use now

[late yew]

It WAS most fun to use for me even before

[tall mango]

void doing 3K damage on headshot was super goofy

[late yew]

why it doe so much damage

[leaden pier]

void is different?

[late yew]

going to get nerfed 100%

[viral inlet]

yeah the CC vs "just fucking kill them" debate is not one to have a victor

[tall mango]

does super damage

[celest hedge]

I want to play around with the new wall ability but I feel like my ult lines won’t be anywhere as cool

[tall mango]

im Vicktor, I think I win this

[viral inlet]

you know what is cool though
stopping mutants with it
or a full wave of hounds, trappers, hounds and flamers

and bombers

and poxbursters

I dig it

[leaden pier]

oh it got really buffed

[celest hedge]

I know but I like my maniacal laughter

[tall mango]

also yeah Surge cannot stop an entire wave of hounds

smite can

[viral inlet]

100% use assail if you want evil laughter

[viral inlet]

check out the carapace armor damage

fully charged void can actually oneshot specials and elites now

[frozen osprey]

wait how are you not generating peril i havent looked very closely yet

[long wharf]

Assail is so damned fun

[tall mango]

EP :))

[tall mango]

Gives you reduced peril cost

makes your smite completely free

[radiant lance]

What got buffed

[leaden pier]

the void staff

[true lake]

this easily a W update

[olive ember]

Voidstrike is overtuned rn

[tall mango]

W update for psyker and ogryn for sure

[olive ember]

So yeah use it while you can

[frozen osprey]

idk what ep is but i hope ill figure it out when i start playing again lol

[foggy isle]

https://tenor.com/view/unlimited-power-star-wars-gif-10270127

unlimited zap is a bug right? it doesn't say 100% reduction on the tooltip

[tall mango]

Im praying its not a bug

please keep it

[frozen osprey]

it wwould be so freeaking cool

[tall mango]

it does fuck all for damage but holding back a horde like this is so fucking fun

[late yew]

did they really buff heavy swords

[long wharf]

my opinion is it's a bug

it's not supposed to stop peril generation from Smite

[leaden pier]

is the splash on the void like good for horde clear now?

[foggy isle]

yeah that's what I'm thinking too

[late yew]

pretty sure it is a bug

[viral inlet]

it's genuinely a good weapon now

[tall mango]

it’s really good

[frozen osprey]

hasn't it been good for a long time now?

[viral inlet]

I'm so fucking glad because I used void forever

[frozen osprey]

i used to use it all the time

[tall mango]

imo always has been for hordes, but it’s even better now

[frozen osprey]

what'd they change about it

[viral inlet]

no it was dogshit, you could barely kill anything with a fully charged hit

[radiant lance]

OK so here is an interaction I just found. Having Hand Cannon on your secondary also affects your Assail, so it gives your Assail Rending on crits.

[viral inlet]

now it can competently deal with any enemy type

[leaden pier]

i kinda used it essentially as a bowling ball aimed at their heads

[frozen osprey]

zamn did it get nerfed cuz i remember it being awesome

[tall mango]

70% damage buff is insane

lore accurate psyker tbh

[leaden pier]

so against horde usage, do i aim at the ground now?

[true lake]

in all fairness it did need a huge damage buff

it did next to nothing before

[viral inlet]

it has zero AoE, just aim at the heads

[foggy isle]

Is it only on charged attack or does it boost the primary as well?

[olive ember]

voidstrike moment

[long wharf]

it's a proper railgun now

[olive ember]

its got AOE its got CC its got damage

its busted

[long wharf]

https://tenor.com/view/damage-thats-a-lot-of-damage-jon-tron-gif-13054497

[viral inlet]

primaries of all staves are now super fast and can be used seamlessly after your right click

[olive ember]

and I don't even have the bottom half of my tree active

[frozen osprey]

OH WAIT VOIDSTRIKE

god im stupid

[late yew]

i would say it is overtuned. And i used void stuff almost exclusively before too.

[tall mango]

not even it’s highest damage

[frozen osprey]

i was thinking of trauma

[tall mango]

can reach 3k

probably higher?

[frozen osprey]

o fuck ya

[olive ember]

all the purple nodes don't actually work in meat grinder btw

[tall mango]

yes they do

[long wharf]

they should

[tall mango]

they very much do

[foggy isle]

Neat

[tall mango]

EP does at least

[olive ember]

i mean all the purple nodes for my build specifically

[late yew]

i don't like how Destiny things sound on paper

[olive ember]

as in disrupt destiny no work

[viral inlet]

you know what, what am I even doing here, I'm going back to playing the game lol

[olive ember]

in meat grinder

[late yew]

have not tried them yet

[tall mango]

May be a bug

[late yew]

but i don't like timed buffs

[olive ember]

disrupt destiny is rly good because of

so when you are running homing knives and voidstrike

[leaden pier]

that includes melee too right?

[tall mango]

okay wait

[olive ember]

it doesn't say anything about ranged vs melee so I assume so

[tall mango]

that’s actually pretty good

[true lake]

disrupt destiny is primarily for ranged hits for precision bonus

[tall mango]

that would be great on void strike or revolver

[true lake]

idk if precision is a melee thing or not

[foggy isle]

At least to try the build yeah

[tall mango]

maybe assail but like, EP is so much better for assail

[foggy isle]

Now they need to remove the stupid locks on craft so we can really do what we want

maybe have fun who knows

[tall mango]

Also give me more ordos

pls

[tranquil fiber]

is it EP that causes Smite to bug out?

[tall mango]

yes

[tranquil fiber]

ohhh

[tall mango]

Never fix it

please

[tranquil fiber]

so that means Scriers Gaze would be good right?

[olive ember]

I mean 30% more damage, 60% more crit damage, and 75% more weakspot damage, and precision bonus makes disrupt destiny just

[tranquil fiber]

since it would just stay at the bugged number

[tall mango]

I use dome but no

[olive ember]

rly noice for assail as well

[tall mango]

scrier would still have its own peril increase

[tranquil fiber]

oh

[olive ember]

Scrier's gaze from what I heard is in this weird place where it's only actually useful for a few weapons

the rly good weapons don't need it

and it builds up peril a bit too fast etc. etc.

[silver sphinx]

huh, I actually have a decent voidstrike staff right now

[tranquil fiber]

yeah it feels like its better for melee Psyker or gun Psyker

though assail can use it as well

[true lake]

scrier is mainly a berserker mode for melee

[long wharf]

SG doesn't build up too quickly if you take the node that reduces its peril gain

[true lake]

i wouldnt recommend it unless you make a lot of kills very quickly

either through melee or whatever ranged you have

[teal needle]

Scrier is for gunker

[olive ember]

assail imo is just better with force push or shield tbh

[teal needle]

I tried it with voidstaff... it one-shots crushers but also I blow myself up all the time lmao

[true lake]

it pairs well with guns but you need to be killing a lot to make scrier actually good

[radiant lance]

Don't forget the effect lasts 10 seconds after you reach 100% peril.

[true lake]

because the longer you are in scrier the better it actually is

[radiant lance]

So you get a whopping +20% crit chance for like 20 seconds at least?

[true lake]

need to max it out

[tranquil fiber]

isn't it realistically less? cause you need to clear your peril stacks

[long wharf]

SG requires you to pay close attention to your peril

[tranquil fiber]

so like 2-3 s to drain then 7s buff

[south canopy]

Is Psyker popping off this patch ?

[long wharf]

and as long as you don't hit 100% peril, SG stays active

no time limit

[silver sphinx]

Wasn't too impressed with Smite, do you have to build into it hard?

[maiden mica]

It’s a cc tool

[true lake]

smite is purely a CC

[radiant lance]

Without killing ANYTHING, you get about 23 seconds of duration.

[true lake]

not damage

[long wharf]

try pairing Smite with with Empowered Psionics

[radiant lance]

I don't think you're missing much. It's mainly a CC tool.

[silver sphinx]

I've stuck with BB and loving it with new abilities

[foggy comet]

why did they ruin all the staves?

[olive ember]

eh smite is good CC but the damage kinda hurts

like I'd prefer the reliability of BB or Assail tbh

[shy copper]

Smite + Empowered = infinite stagger :3

[late yew]

oh, i gotta try it

[foggy comet]

purg staff only good staff now

[true lake]

BB is definitely better than it was and not a bad option

[tranquil fiber]

super suprised Trauma is still in a weird place

[radiant lance]

Mate they buffed all the staves

[foggy comet]

surge staff feels like trash

[radiant lance]

What's weird about it? It's a great CC / Mixed horde staff

[true lake]

trauma is a good all rounder, not really perfect at anything though

[true lake]

rending build makes it pretty good at chewing through armor of enemies to make them easier to kill

[ebon smelt]

Surge staff damage is so fucking high now

[silver sphinx]

still mixed on soulblaze

[olive ember]

ik you were mixing it up with smite but yeah the right click lets you do this to snipers

[long wharf]

there's no reason to even use a weapon when you have Assail

[queen fog]

to help when assail runs out (never )

[radiant lance]

Mate put rending on your ranged weapon and I'm pretty sure it affects your Assail. Dunno if it's a bug or not

[olive ember]

i mean assail isn't the best horde clear nor the best crusher/mutie damage

[silver sphinx]

Yeah, had an ally psyker using assail and he was just chewing through everything

[long wharf]

Rending reduces target armor

it'll benefit everybody doing anything

[true lake]

for rending shockwave? different blessing

rending shockwave applies brittle stacks

which basically just lower overall damage resist of armored enemies

[radiant lance]

I specifically have this blessing on my Revolver and it affects my Assail attacks as well.

[true lake]

very good support option

[nocturne badge]

how does distrupt destiny work? i can't see the effect while in psykhanium

[true lake]

as for hand cannon, not sure but thats not a staff blessing i think

[olive ember]

crucian roulette back on the table ayo?

[radiant lance]

I know, it's revolver.

[broken quail]

It doesn't work in psykariam, it highlights enemies blue in game

[true lake]

rending shockwave is fairly decent

[radiant lance]

Yo I should test that

[zinc phoenix]

Cope done with infinite stun papa palp, dueling sword and the zap stick is pretty busted

[nocturne badge]

ok thanks

[olive ember]

no, which I find amazing because my build already feels broken as shit

and if it gets even more broke in game

holy fuck

[radiant lance]

Nope, Cruccian doesn't work with Assail

[zinc phoenix]

I literally am not aiming and anything big either dies instantly or dances forever

This can’t be intended gameplay

[hazy locust]

🤝

dont say you were never warned.

[zinc phoenix]

Also nothing can shoot me because cope dome

[radiant lance]

Up the diff?

[zinc phoenix]

Damnation auric

[radiant lance]

Welp

[zinc phoenix]

How much harder can I make it 😂

[olive ember]

btw @late yew if you are using assail make sure you don't hit poxbursters, cuz assail does some weird shit where it hits them from behind and it boosts em forward

[zinc phoenix]

I’m literally walking teams across the map

Fuck assail, papa palpa show you da wae

[ornate hamlet]

The day psyker chat kinda stopped being a wasteland

[hazy locust]

i prefer to thinkof it like... "what more do we need to say as the emperor's favourite ||snack||"

[true lake]

god damn i just went into psykanium to try out voidstrike and people arent kidding this thing is busted

easily one shot a crusher

as long as i got peril up

[silver sphinx]

what combo are you using for voidstrike?

[cinder obsidian]

So, psyker is definitely improved. I’m still disappointed by how little soulblaze does though

[olive ember]

does your build guarantee crit?

[hazy locust]

builds go brrr: https://discord.com/channels/727074276724965407/1158835513789272126

[true lake]

can show my build in a sec

[olive ember]

"meta" voidstrike atleast rn is nexus + surge

fatshark somehow did it

they made the biggest meme staff build in the game

and turned it meta

[hazy locust]

https://tenor.com/view/ian-malcom-cope-rap-gif-22006519

[abstract kestrel]

is it me or does charged biolightning not generate peril after dodging

[hazy locust]

am i doing this right?

[true lake]

this is my build

[silver sphinx]

I have nexus on mine, but havint rolled surge yet :/

[cinder obsidian]

I’m still upset that there is no force greatsword

[broken quail]

Looks fine for all in on assail and staff I suppose

[true lake]

mainly got it focused on crit chance

because crits is what sets off the surge blessing on voidstrike

[cinder obsidian]

I will not stop wanting a force greatsword

[steel flame]

I'm looking forward to setting up fire trauma. But it's extremely annoying that all the fire perks are opposite the crit perks

[tall mango]

it’s coming..

[steel flame]

Very sus

[tall mango]

my beloved told me it’s coming soon

[true lake]

well if you had fire and crits you would be unstoppable

imagine the crit proc

[steel flame]

Fire sword go brrrrrrrrr

I can do it it's just gonna cost a bunch of points

[cinder obsidian]

I still think there should be an ability to cash in or detonate soulblaze stacks

[plucky flax]

Blaze trauma got stronger.

[silver sphinx]

That would be so cool

[olive ember]

using scrier instead of shriek smh

[plucky flax]

80% damage trauma does 660 full charge.

It's so op.

[true lake]

scrier moment

[cinder obsidian]

So cool they faked it for the psyker trailer.

Using an explosive barrel hidden in the background

[olive ember]

nah thats for using a gun, if you want to use staff go for shriek instead

[steel flame]

The quell change had the unintended consequence of uncapping how fast you can quell cancel too

[olive ember]

cuz peril gen

[silver sphinx]

I have a nexus/blaze voidstrike dunno if I should lean into soulblaze or go full crit

[true lake]

shriek definitely pairs better with a staff but im a rebel

[cinder obsidian]

Really? Assail looks great as a long range option to pair well with the shorter ranged staffs

[true lake]

voidstrike staff + scrier

[cinder obsidian]

I’m considering assail+shield

To go alongside the fire staff

[tall mango]

honestly gun + assail isn’t a bad idea

gives you something to look pretty in

[cinder obsidian]

I am a firm believer that psyker with a gun is stupid

[late yew]

Do you hav e to actually aim for heads btw

[steel flame]

Both

[cinder obsidian]

At that point, just play veteran

[late yew]

same

[proven dagger]

A question, is Smite working as intended? The damage seems to be really low whether I charge it or not, and the charged one jumps between enemies, while the continuous stream just hits two targets.
That very much differs from the description

[forest iris]

whats "Finesse Damage"?

[olive ember]

It home towards heads so I personally aim above the head

headshots

[long wharf]

huh. Fatshark removed the ability to apply Soulblaze by brain bursting without killing

[forest iris]

thanks

[olive ember]

Eh the entire point of scriers gaze is for gun psyker

[steel flame]

You can slide sideways and grab both the crit and fire. It just costs more perk points, but it's worth it

[shrewd comet]

I'm having a hard time figuring out what pairs best with a surge staff. I love the damage surge does, but I also find myself struggling with blowing up without psychic scream 😂

[blazing oak]

It’s meant to be a crowd control ability. Combine it with enhanced psionics for no peril gain when using it for infinite lightning

[olive ember]

It’s in the clip art

[silver sphinx]

still messing with perk tree to figure that out

[zinc phoenix]

Broke mechanics by turning damage up to 11 😂

[silver sphinx]

I'm guess disrupt destiny for voidstrike?

[olive ember]

but imo the peril gen from scrier makes it kinda unefficient to pair with peril generating abilities like staffs

[olive ember]

thats my plan yeah

[long wharf]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[olive ember]

actually lemme get my build

[gilded viper]

Wait what NOOOOO

[long wharf]

BB seems to be as bad as it was before

[proven dagger]

I am, but the stream is pretty useless then, isn't it? Both variants do about the same damage, and peril cost ignored, the charged one does everything better

[silver sphinx]

Or warp siphon

[steel flame]

Laspistol gonna be dope with scrier

[late yew]

Can you show me your build for assail @olive ember

[gilded viper]

It joever for BB

[long wharf]

oh well, we have better toys now

[gilded viper]

True but I'm going to miss it

[olive ember]

@late yew @silver sphinx #psyker-class message

[true lake]

or melee

im going to use scrier for melee berzerking through hordes

[olive ember]

I've only tested it out in meat grinder but honestly I have high confidence it will be good in an actual game

[worldly chasm]

voidstrike slaps so hard right now imma coom

[late yew]

Why no Warp Expenditure? Just free toughness

[long wharf]

the really nutty thing is - why put In Fire Reborn locked under Warp Siphon?

[olive ember]

dueling sword is a throwaway btw I gotta spend some cash to get actually good one

[true lake]

i wish i could have kinetic presence with scrier gaze, sadge

[olive ember]

honestly my idea is that I will be quelling alot

[proven dagger]

No warp charges if no warp siphon

[olive ember]

so I get 15% toughness per warp kill and then more toughness when I quell the peril

so getting a third toughness felt like overkill

[long wharf]

... oh, right

[olive ember]

I also have mettle actually

so I already have 3 different toughness regen perks

[burnt slate]

Is it me or smite doesnt do much damage o_O

[late yew]

not sure about ult. I think shield would go well with assail?

[gilded viper]

So what weapons do gunkers like? I’ll probably be making a build for one at some point.

[true lake]

stub revolver usually

[ivory heath]

Smite is now what surge used to be, it’s not for dmg it’s just for crowd control

[late yew]

And? To quell you need to generate peril
