it does nutty damage to specials and elites
Man, it's crazy. That empower buff limits the peril generation from scrier during sustained smite usage.
Just having any Ogryn with a Psyker is a recipe for a successful run now tbh
Tbh only things ive seen it struggle with at all are Bulwarks and Crushers
Maulers too
surge staff bros are dying rn with the release of smite
it just does its job but way better
On an off with those, sometimes they go down easy, other times not so much
does smites alt fire work correctly? the description reads as if it's supposed to do rapid single target but it feels more like higher damage normal fire
FYI, Bloodthirsty on the Ilisi can give you on demand ghost for 1 second
Not at all, Surge is supposedly cracked for damage now
The CC is nuts. I changed to void just for something to kill large enemies.
ong? i gotta check the patch notes
getting shot? just press q and crit something to become immune to ranged
easiest 16k staggers of my life
A reminder that the psyker bubble also regens toughness and gives damage resist when it ends
so its still useful even if theres no shooter
the regen also stacks
Yeah
Do also keep in mind that entirely denying Specialists n' Elites from moving through your Shield is very useful too
Honestly, both Telekine Shield branches are 10/10 imo

love me dome
threw 2 on the zealot tanking a boss and his toughness regen was huge
am I crazy or did they reduce our max health and toughness because of the toughness nodes?
Health is the same iirc, but Toughness did go down.
HOWEVER, it's a net improvement for us with Toughness Nodes anyway
i'd say it's fair for how potent psyker is now
70 iirc
whats better then toughness nodes or toughness amage resist
Toughness
just get +30% toughness regen speed on all your curios, ezpz
i have 20% toughness damage reduction
But, you usually end up with both anyway
it’s so good
how do you properly use assail?
Spam it duh
Look at a horde, click multiple times and delete them
damn i love new voidstrike
Spam it, or aim in if you need to hit a specific enemy or a far away enemy
how is it changed?
+70% dmg on direct hits.
more cleave.
not "more cleave"
its always had great cleave
all the cleave
and did decent damage
no, it had crap cleave
new primary on staves is really good
only hit 4 enemies before
also assail is a mutie slayer
yes, it was my favorite staff before, even though it was considered weakest by community.
now tho...
6
4
definitely not 4.
No... 6
i used to wipe hordes with that thing
idk i sed to think it was good
the AoE helped kill things
Just tried smite, seems to do essentially no damage at all. Surge seems decent enough damage
An even then, half the time it would bug out an you'd get way more than 6
stagger king
now, there is no cleave limit for Void staff
does basically no damage at all though
no way aoe could reach across the room in psykanium, unless that test map lied.
I used void selectively since the release window lol
it didn't
im so glad i have a crit deimos...
It's just more clearly defined old surge then
the insanity
It had 6 enemies cleaved, when not bugging out, and was the best non-purgatus Soulblaze applicator
Not sure why smite has a charge up, it barely does more damage
An tbh it still is on that latter point, more so given the now much faster casting speed
i think charged smite spreads some icky biolightning or whatever
its not very clear
I'm guessing it's for "instant" cc application in scenarios where you can't channel uncharged for long
lets see them surge builds baby
But charged doesn't uniformly stagger all elites/specials either, maulers just shrug it off
Although it does make bulwarks drop shield
so whats the best staff now
Voidstrike
Probably voidstrike
voidstrike
i knew voidstrike would have its comeback
Surge seems acceptable from testing in the psyk, but voidstrike is undoubtedly the best
I don't know is it bug or intended but if you use Smite with Empowered Psionics, the Smite will not cost any Peril. 😄
it can CC entire hordes
Its a bug ye
Anyone playing with smite using Empowered psionics?
It’s so fun
its stupid
so good
me
it WILL be patched out in a week i promise
so i noticed that i cant 2 shot crushers with brain burst is there a build that lets me do that again?
so have fun with it now
so what does rightlick assail do vs left click
I don’t think the chaining potential is worth it
the skill without bug is really bad XD
right click does 25% peril and hits harder
left click is 10%
I was stunning literally entire hordes
Not at all
It’s still an incredibly strong crowd CC
It’s about using it correctly
its excellent for repositioning when u need to buy time to get to cover
the bug just removes the using it correctly
and it works really well on armor
I got CC and toughness revenging shield, im loving the support role
supposedly there's enough skills that give you +50% brain burst over the original one
because if you have it forever, well..
idk which tho
EP
A lot of the vids are from a previous build where things were stronger
My vids
None of the warp abilities can crit right?
in the build channel
Assail can
and it’s very strong
yep
Oh cool, that makes sense
So smite can't? Here I was making a smite/surge crit build

Anyone tested out the soul blaze potential on smite though?
it's not made for damage, just CC
I have a little bit
It’s not as good as soulblaze assail
assail with sb can absolutely shred hordes
right click with smite
Smite is for controlling
everything in front of you staggered infinitely
smite is insanely good
i am glad that you like it
it’s exactly what you’re looking for though..?
controlling the field?
that’s what it does
smite can stun 20+ things permanently currently. For CC is is much better than old surge
it is not the same, it is not what the surge staff did
it does it better
Can you give smite crit chance with scriers gaze?
Or does it not crit no matter what
It does not crit
newish to psyker, what stat for a curio am I lookin for?
infinite smite is crazy but i still say the crystal throwing knifes are better
high damage on charged hits? is description wrong or I'm doing smth wrong?
checking it in Psykhanium, damnation
it is incorrect
Surge wishes it could control the field the same way smite does.
smite damage does not change
it barely deals any damage. Seems like a good stun though
can disable entire hordes
Yeah the damage is shit
But you can infiently stun everything and then swap to void and one tap almost anything.
it does seem like a very decent stun, tho
That’s is correct too
it's not decent it's broken atm lol
not sure how it holds up in a mixed horde
#1158835513789272126 that’s how it does against mixed hordes
how many enemies can it stun at once?
to all those who use the throwing crystals: do you guys find yourselfs just using the crystals instead of your gun becasue its more effective?
It feels like more than 20
This is surely a bug, right? From the empowered charges that aren't supposed to make it free
Yeah it's a bug, but in it's current state it is broken af
100%
I wouldn’t say it’s broken tbh
I would.
If you play poorly you can be interrupted out of it
And then go to the next charge of free
It requires not being hit, at all
infinite peril? what?
am i seeing it right.
You can literally just hold the button down infedinitely and spin your camera 360 until you win the game
Truthfully this isn’t as broken as the shards
you cannot stun monstrosities
nor does it do much damage
and the longer it takes to kill, the longer they have to get closer, and you can only stun so many things
plus snipers and gunners can out range you
knives just, kill them
yeah thats a bug. and a one they'll probably hotfix by tomorrow, so I wont get to taste it in actual game.
should be fun playing Palpatines rn.
Shards are less broken than Relic tbh
Which can stun monsters and however many there are in the situation along with everything else
Is that the zealot holding up the badge thing?
Palpatine quivers at the thought of some holy relic being more powerful than him
Ye
The description is definitely misleading, the charged smite barely does any damage and doesn't even uniformly stagger
yeah, just gonna have to disagree, smite is not a good replacement for nerf to surge staff
me when people are wrong
you can like it, that's cool
90% of the match I was just spamming assail. The only thing it cant do is boss dmg.
can surge stun an entire horde forever? 
Why would you stun a horde?
if you are talking about the left click hold with the buff, that is obviously a bug..
support psyker
You stun specials
Check out my gun
shield and huge CC
Hordes arent worth stunning ever
the specials are in the horde
You stun the specials and the horde
You have the most op melee weapons in the game
Don’t recommend the mk2 recon, it’s easily the worst
what perks and blessings do we go for on voidstrike with assail?
zealots hammer exists and can one shot monstrosities
MK1 VLD is where it's at
Sweet karkin' emperor does Assail feel good after Psyker sucking for a year straight.
tbh i don't see the reason to take Assail with Void, they're competing to do the same thing
Assail with Trauma, Smite with Void
Surge wasnt nerfed mate
Ah, makes sense
You use assail with guns 🙂
Has the lowest dps (pitifully low) of the three and the recons don’t appear to have been numerically buffed since last patch either.
tfw you were using voidstrike since before the buff and you now feel like a god
Perks and blessings for trauma then?
if you dont icepick lobotomize your enemies, are you even a psyker?
also the new lines for assail are epic
Not at all, Void is capable of both single target and huge cleave, and can kill Crushers, which Shards cannot
Shards can kill crushers
well, yeah, Void is insane and kinda does everything
As for using assail with guns, sure, thats an option, but with the peril resistance feat and warp charges its relatively safe to use with Scriers
All assail really is missing is carapace and boss damage
You just need to be using a revovler with rending
But I would never use assail with voidstrike
Void literally two shots them
Void will probably get nerfed
Probably a bit yeah
Revolver sounds really fun
Its very strong at the moment
Void feels godly. I liked it before the buff and now it's cross
I’m curious to see where smite lands when they fix INFINITE POWER with EP
gross*
Without the bug smite does eat up peril
The old surge but shittier
tbh, the only thing that seems broken about Void, when you compare it to other insane stuff that's available, is the Surge synergy with all the new traits
It'll be better now they've apparently fixed the hitreg issue
They fixed hounds too
Yep, that is sooo nice
Im extremely happy about that
Yeah, that’s what I was thinking. I don’t expect it to be terribly strong with the fix, although for pure utility with shield it might find a niche
Pushes an dodges are actually reliable now for the first time in the games life
I did heavy attack on hounds with the axe
what guns are my assail psykers running?
Worked pre patch
i got a laspistol but idk bout it
Voidstrike 
I never tried that tbh
Shredder is no longer turbo OP
Didnt fancy my chances with it with not superfast internet
An its beautiful
Im so glad that annoying shit weapon isnt in every lobby anymore
Use it only if enemies are far far away and assail is not reliable anymore
Also glad to see that the consensus on Smite is that it's not great. I was worried I was missing something about it.
Is blaze trauma still a thing?
Do we have Blazing Spirit 4 yet?
I mean, it was a really good weapon
what no it's amazing
Bummed I can't combo Shriek and Assail.
We do not, but yeah its still strong
the cc with empowered is STUPID
ep is bugged
thanks
Arguably as good as Void in some respects, in others worse, but not by a huge amount
They need to fix the bug but I feel smite needs lower peril costs
I really liked shredder, but the new stuff is so cool
People are trying to assess powerlevel without clear bugs likely to be fixed immediately
So on that end, it's eh
I think they should add a -50% peril cost to EP for smite after removing the bug
Think they should give it crit too so I can build surge/smite crit build
and void's damage i feel will be changed, is far too much
yeah, llower peril smite might make me use it a lot more
Surge should be doing more because it's close range
voistrike damage is buffed O_O ? rly ?
i dont even have a voidstrike staff to test it XD
Lmao. Try it.
2 shots crushers on damn.
hey guys zealot player here if i wanted to play a melee oriented psyker is that possible
just had a maelstrom match where i could see the buffed spawn rates. had a wave of like 20 maulers
the evolved form of the mauler patrol
is it just me or does smite feel really mid
I'd say yes
the cc is nutty but the damage is nothing
I assume illisi is still the indisputable strongest melee in the game, so you could, but it'd be a massive waste not to utilize psykers ranged abilities
the stuns nice but i feel like i could use the other abilites/any staff and just kill it instead
smite is a support psyker skill
i was hoping it would at least kill hordes
oh of course i'm just terminally slayerbrained
0 to full peril will maybe kill some trash
Dropping shield and stunning melee forever is real good support. It's support.
i see three psykers, support, murder hobo, and murder everything hobo
it is not reliable though
the new throwing knives are pretty good
A lot the psyker penances want me to use Brain Burst 
yeah they didn’t add any new penances
they're very fun
agreed
the homing can feel wonky tho
just spam em
just bought a white voidstrike staff from teh armory:
one's bound to hit lmao
dont even have carapace perk lmao
void is actually nutty
is the 2 for 1 blessing worth it on void now or is it the same old setup?
It has to be bugged
I don't see it staying this way for long
a crit built surge staff is fucking deadly now
so you are saying investing all my 50k plasteel on the perfect voidstrike would be a bad idea ?
There’s some funky interaction with the brain burst that’s giving free brain bursts
I e no peril bb
EP?
Do you have empowered psionics? that is giving smire free no peril attacks
Could be
only 50k? those are rookie numbers
theres a chance they dont nerf it but i think it very much needs a nerf
I think void feels good right now
Yeah I'd wait until they get some patches out before doing big investing
It's nice that a charge shot does something against more things than just trash
Void isn't good it's busted lol
i dont think i need to be killing every elite and multiple elites per shot
it just does what surge was meant to
but 100x better
i would say a lot of shit are overtuned tbf
the quell speed is nuts if you take the regen for it
for exemple
Its great eh? Maelstrom is properly challenging now
Possible, not optimal.
Its overtuned in middling difficulties, very much not in the highest, fits right in
i'm running my build in auric
Psyker is probably the only class without a "the melee build" build.
it's hilarious
Well given how mental the director can be in Auric Maelstrom i'd say the powerlevel suits what it expects of you
Its balls to the wall now all the way, little to no breathers, an thats fantastic
yeah maybe
what's the point of the Auric missions?
mmmyeah i figured. still trying to figure out what i'd do between vet and psyker and i figure i conceptually like psyker more than vet... but i'm not much of a priority target killer
Difficulty
that would make sense. i am als otechnically maxed so i guess that makes sense too
yeah auric is fun
in what way? the mission rewards aren't better
The director has less and less restraint
they throw a lot of shit at you
Up to Maelstrom, where it has exactly zero now
also nice to see deflector in the tree now
Nahh, thats kinetic shield, different to deflector
Is Assail over powered?
oh oopsie
Its very good, i wouldnt say overpowered just yet, too early to really tell
nah it feels balanced enough
assail is probably a little overtuned imo
it is very good if you build for them to be spammable
i use it for burst
but not crazy
My ass decided to main psyker when I first played and I still haven't hit 30 because of how awful it was.
I'm riding this while I can.
😔
Thats like one feat though, one of the ones next to the ability anyway
I been running it with Scriers, Warp Charges an peril resist, its great, dangerous, but great
i do like using mind in motion now
does scriers work with anything other than gunker
more dockets
well
Yeah works with everything, you just gotta be much more careful with letting your peril get high when not using a gun, which adds to the skill ceiling a lot in exchange for a lot mroe damage
I've been comparing, not seeing more dockets for similar difficulties
I think there is a bug with the stun shield. Sometimes the dog just walks through it
Other times the dog gets stunned
i wish i could show the full tree i have, but basically i took the global damage nodes, more knives, efficiency and a couple other things and it just melts everything. i'm using the on crit effects and have bass boosted crits due to surge
Every other special/elite gets stunned
Scriers is great, but I'm used to shriek saving me from peril and if I blink for too long I'm at 90%
they're the same missions
the auric board simply guarantees hi-intensity missions
the maelstroms are what gives a bunch of dockets
I’ve not touched Darktide in a hot bit, are the new class overhaul stuff even viable in T5 missions?
ah okay
wait what is that shit?
loadouts
oh aight thanks
speaking for psyker, it makes them even more manageable
yeah most things have been viable since they buffed psyker forever ago
It actually made most T5 missions easier imo
By ”managable” you mean far easier?
yeah and far more fun
Muties assailing ur team? Psyker presses F and they all run into a wall
Wow, so I can play T5 missions without putting effort? Love it Fatshark
Will probably feel like Cataclysm in V2 now with the boys aka fun and easy
Of course i think the shield as an invisible hp bar so if you got 3 reapers shooting it + scab gunners it wont last long
have yet to play maelstrom with the new update, but i imagine i can actually survive it now
What’s maelstrom?
here's what i run for what it's worth
how noticeable is empowered with assail?
very
yeah
im running warp charges and really appreciate the peril reduction, but idk about running ep
shreds everything and keeps itself up
Extremely
it's pretty stupid
Just make sure you have the guaranteed charge on Elite kill option
It's broken op tier
Allows you to throw assail with more dmg, no peril cost and no ammo cost
for the surge nexus build in void do you need to have t4 nexus or is t3 fine
It's what allows you to "Spam" assail into elites/specials
Anyone else notice getting stacks of disrupt destiny without any blue highlighted enemies? I think there might be bug not lighting em up every time
They really need a way to export/share your talents that isn't so . . .quirky.
also this 👌
goated
never tried gun psyker much
same, only just now trying it out but i dont wanna use the shredder 😭
just not sure if those blessings are any good or not
replace speedload
and replace specialists with maniac if you play auric/T5
what might you recommend to replace speedload with
Pinning fire
Gun Spyker is entertaining and pretty simple in T5 and in T4 it’s effortless imo
pinning fire, will keep an eye out for it
Tradeoff is ammo management for the team cause yknow, you’re not using the Warp for ranged power
my usual malice difficulty feels so easy now after update so been looking at possible builds to experiment with
not that i know of
do we no longer have cerebral lacerations for bb?
trying to find it. it made bb really potent
Assail is good, but it sounds so... pathetic
I want boomy piercing
I think I'll get another blitz
psyker now https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFCcJCAV0rE

lmao voiidstrike does enough stagger to stagger the beast of nurgle on a weakspot hit
good
makes it spit out the vored victim
tragic that wildfire is on the other side of assail, no pyropsyker with lobotomy shards :(
wildfire rubbish anyway, lobotomy pyro very online
Fucking finally gun psyker
the voidstrike is so broken holy fuck
what guns are good besides the auto pistol? I'm thinking anything that can land good crits but still decently precise
it works perfectly fine be quiet with your heresy
Maybe volver
I'm not convinced autopistol is too great currently
las pistol is pgud memes, great weakspot and crit damage
generate peril with it out using it's push
Auto Pistol got schnerfed
Nerfs hit it hard and you have a lot of trouble against carapace
Specifically Pinning Fire, the Blessing that made it nutso
BB takes 3 hits to kill a crusher now
and voidstrike also takes 3 lol
80% damage voidstrike is literally firing 1300 damage bowling balls that ignore everything
I'm also considering dropping illisi for dueling sword
Because of how disgusting the dueling sword is now
they deal damage thru bulwark shield, they deal full damage to carapace
you can oneshot anything that isn't a mutant or ogyrn with a void strike it's supremely goofy
Is it still target capped at 6
i'd have to double check, but i think it got more cleave too
holy shit
Yeah but it's a machine gun
I have some ideas with VS but need to experiment with it lol
the smite pushback after casting pushes enemies into the direction youre facing. meaning you can fling enemies off ledges
Based and voidstrike pilled
Is slaught still the go to for swords they seemed to have nerfed it a bit*
void cleave went from 7 to 11 it looks like
Now wait a fucking minute
With scrier's gaze depending on the player not being at 100% peril
Does this mean exorcist is now a poggers blessing?
Not really cuz the peril builds exponentially
the way scriers works, the peril-gain ramps up really hard after a while, so there's no way you can sustain it for long
So you cant really stop it from capping
It makes more sense on a completely non peril build
And just get 22% cdr
For perma uptime
crit purg is kind of busted
22% will reduce cd to 23 seconds so you only need 13 seconds of uptime
how so
Oh god, yeah that would work
also damage goes brrrr i dont even need to swap to melee
what is ghost
dogs die trappers die
Crits make u dodge
psyker has a new node that gives you invul to ranged damage for 1sec on crit
purg hits so often and with nexus and crit nodes you basically are invul to ranged
i add on scrier because im trying it out but with that you can also melt entire mauler patrols
I'm a little bit doubtful cuz purg has never really had issues with ranged anyways
And it melts mauler patrols baseline
they buffed mauler hp now tho 
so you get back to baseline
scrier probably not optimal, but its fun for now
assail is... ok
Purg has terrible range
same issue as surge, its bad during high pressure situations
when theres a trapper in a horde and you just throwing knives you dont really kill anything
Umm
its good for killing shooters
You can aim it you know
yea
And trappers are like
but i can just brain burst
i seen enough psykers throwing their little knvies and not killing anything
So, what's the verdict on Push versus shield?
i used it twice and its nice during ambient, but bad during horde+anything
I like push
I've not played a lot of Psyker, out of the 3 at the very bottom of your choices--
Warp Siphon, Empowered, and Disrupt Destiny, what's the vibes rn?
Why dont you try em
Depends on your build
Instead of listening to random scrubs here on discord who might suck
Well, I'm asking opinions, etc because the opinions have been wild depending on who I ask.
So I'm consolidating opinions/info.
u can just decide for urself
Yeah it comes down mostly to personal prefence and playstyle
its only been a couple hours
I have been play psyker since beta and I prefer a ranged style, but some people like playing more front line
warp siphon seems kinda buggy, testing it w/dome shield in psykhanium and dropping shield with literally any warp charges immediately refunds its whole CD 
been playing with my rookie friends for the entire patch so far
is Assail as busted as it feels in Uprising/Malice?
@potent echo Ayo? The knives shred everything that isn't carpace, They demolish groups too. Maybe you specced wrong?
Yes.
I used a t3 to test mods and assial was just dumb. On a t5 I had 150k more damage the next person.
yeah this has got to be a bug lmao
bruh why psker have a better skill tree to mix and match vs zealot 
is crucian roulette blessing any good?
5.5% crit chance for each expended round in chamber
@gilded viper This is the Pysker and the Nuke patch, sory brah.
really is making me want to go back to psyker KEKW
played like 3 hours of psyker and went to see how zealot doing and their tree is
that most of it is just a straight path
yeah this is what getting me, haven't finish put in all my points
Do Disrupt Destiny stacks fall off one at a time or all at once?
ogryn doesnt have as much mix and match either when you go into a part of the tree
Did auric maelstorm clear with revolver - illisi psyker
It's very doable
The voidstrike psyker topped me easily tho
i know and it sucks
All at once which is poopy
I tried it and I think it’s nice but it’s a bit hard to upkeep during downtime
can we nerf Assail please that'd be cool 
So I swapped over the empowered psiojics like everyone else
No
no screw you imma magic bee everything to death
woooooo, new patch today
No, screw that, I want all my weapon grinding to be invalidated by an ability you get for turning 30 😠
L
No but seriously assial is so much fun, finally feel like a psyker
it could probably be nerfed a little bit maybe but meh
I just... can't stop to.... SSSSMMMIIITE! 
Wait, it's not even 30 you get it at like 7 or something lmao
I love that we can grab all the toughness regen stuff that we had to just pick one of before
whats the best dueling sword for psyker?
Mk 5
I just smited an entire horde and they all went pop xD
Slaughterer isn't best blessing now?
MK IV duellies have the best single-target heavies
Rn probably mk 4
Voidstrike assail and dueling sword def takes a bit more finesse than what I ran before
Which was brain off illisi
Btw @spice veldt did they buff enemy damage?
yeah
I got hit once and like half my health disappeared
what is going on with this bubble spam?
also, is gun psyker real? What gun are people playing with, if so?
does the voidstrike staff need warp nexus for the surge blessing? or is the flurry better for just spamming charged shots?
You can stack warpcharges to insta reset bubble CD
huh
Also how do people feel about scrier's gaze? I'm finding the forced cool-down from 100% a bit annoying at best and deadly at worst
Is the revolver enough to deal with carapace + armoured? Cos assail says it sucks against those
one tap crits
Glorious
or two
you can usual just rely on assail
dropping telekine shield with warp siphon + any amount of warp charges fully refunds its cooldown 
fuck yall's assail, have yet to be in a game with a knife-licker that contributes properly :p
I did a 1650 crit on crusher with revolver with psyker
for general damage
non crits like 500
honestly not sure? would probably need some testing
cuz flurry means you spam balls more but nexus means you have a +20% crit chance
which is fairly sizeable
Recon lasgun and autogun are alr
I'd swap rampage for uncanny
Honestly it feels like most guns are good for psyker rn
Is the MK IV usable? I thought that everyone used the MKV
just rolled a grey mk iv cleave is useless right?
I fucking love using the shards to cross map snipers with that aim down YEET throw
Feels like psyker and ogryn got the biggest W from this patch and then zealot and vet slightly behind
is cleve needed on a mk iv
Eh not rly they lose their 75% DR but all on all I think they were doin fine
I saw a clip of a vet build that one shot crushers with revolver n all that
Ammo regen gone to shit too
They lost a lot of things, including their ult being nerfed
Vet was wild before
You can oneshot crushers too on Psyker
6 Views. Watch it's all joever bois and millions of other Warhammer 40,000: Darktide videos on Medal, the #1 Game Clip Platform.
Vet commissar skill is kinda meh too
How useful is bubble?
That's not really useful, everyone has so much toughness regen now.
Imo psychanium is trash for showcasing builds and capabilities
AAAAAAAAAA, they fixed cosmetic bug from beta!!!!!!
Imo the shield is better if you plan on playing auric
The stun wall generates so much utility
Nah vet shout overcap is pretty pog
Pretty sure I ate a sniper shot cuz of it
Idk if they nerfed sniper toughness damage
is this worth consecrating to get the feel for the mk iv i have noticed that mobility has been my main problem so far
Psyker shield breaks in 5 seconds if there’s a single gunner around
What are the best blessings for stubs? Crucian roulette?
mid
Try standing in a gunner for 5 seconds with vet overcap
Crucian yeah
Psykers, leave some bodies for the rest of us. Geez.
LOL
best revolver blessing is hand cannon now
I mean, unlike the psyker shield, a player can dodge
So it goes a long way
is the force lightning worth it, tried it for a few games seems okayish
You can do the same thing with the shield
Dodge out of harm while the shield covers you
ok i rolled this up to transcendant
Yea but the shield itself cant dodge so it eats a bajillion damage and breaks quickly
Also the dome takes a fair bit more dmg than the normal shield one
dunno if that is a good roll
By shield i mean dome in this case
Not bad all things considered swap out crit chance for a stronger perk and yeah
can smite crit?
The dome lasted a good 10 seconds or so under a reaper + gunner
carapace you think?
I also really like the utility of stunning muties and dogs sometimes
Idk why it's so inconsistent
Sometimes dogs and poxwalkers bonk into the shield
ok this is not working as intended right?
Other times they walk straight trough
No
heard from cab thats aight
It will get nerfed
Infinite peril bug and still worse than Assial lmao
yea, as soon as i gain a psionic stack, i just stop gaining peril
loving these changes, now i need that 2h force sword, force halberd and earnable weapon cosmetics and everything will be good
(force halberd is a dream but i hope)
@spice veldt reeee how good is this btw, cuz I just got rid of this node to get AB on my force push
why dont psykers get force hammers?
Assail is really good on Maelstrom where they like to throw 10 shotgunners out of nowhere
ugh would love a force hammer
You just rip through them
i also think that talent is good derpy, but not necessarily needed
man, playing a support psyker is so much fun
just finished a T4 maelstrom
absolute insanity
they really need to nerf the whole infinite RMB on smite with empowered psionics lmao
wouldn't have survived without my bubble shields
i just had my friend do the entire second half of a mission using that the entire time with no peril gen
assail is only "broken" due to damage really
Literally no shot Assail doesn't get nerfed. Enjoy it for now lmao
infinite smite is literally broken
But without damage, why use it over smite or BB?
Needs just a longer CD or something
It would still oneshot packs of shotgunners, gunners etc
actually, I think Assail is in a good place
assail is pretty good imo
it's not a "kill everything without effort" button
But it is
it's decent horde clear, not great
assail is absolutely overtuned
Why do you think Im running revolver psyker
autoaim weapon lmao
70% rending on crit
it turns psyker from a "kill crushers/specials" into "horde management"
What do you consider "great" horde clear then, Ogryn's nuke?
Purge staff
Assial decimates hordes
Illisi
purgatus wasnt really buffed much or anything like that
assail isn't only hordecleat
I didn't say it was
entirely wrong
i disagree, assail is really good at killing specialists and all non armored elites
it will kill the human elites easily
Purge was majorly buffed
Assail kills elites, specials and light hordes
assail isnt perfect for horde clear due to the whole ammo thing
Assail will absolutely destroy anything that doesn't have armor
i'd rather it wasn't nerfed but i'd accept if it was
It's a point and click
but its really good at what it does, i wouldnt call it broken
It is if it's a mixed horde
it's fine if you mix in melees
Just bust out your illisi
because assail has a quick swap timer
interesting to see what nerfs they do end up bringing
ok but i rather not get up close to a horde of who knows what with an illisi
easier to chew through most of the fodder then deal with the stragglers
get rid of the basic bitches then you can illisi the leftovers that are actually threats a bit more
i can guarantee they will nerf how empowered psionics works with smite though
I hope they buff everything instead
it is actually broken you can just hold the thing forever
Why not?
Illisi was and still is one of the best melee weapons in the game
tbh i prefer deimos
okay, the bubble spam is real
just preference in attack patterns
I tried it out in a damnation match
Here's me completing auric maelstrom with Revolver - Illisi assail
i know illisi is "the meta" or whatever but deimos with slaughtere and deflector is just more my style
and havent had an issue with it yet
too bad for the deimos that the mk IV duellies exist now
Deimos is also meta
Deimos + illisi were psyker's best weapons before patch
would try mk iv duel but i dont like the duel specials
Now the Duelist sword got added
let me tell u about a little weapon called
Watch a lot to be said about crushers and millions of other Warhammer 40,000: Darktide videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.
the devil claw

deimos is just the dueling sword with the charge special, so it just feels great
an actual devil claw user?
duellies got buffed this patch
the deimos is just a bad duelling sword 4 in this patch but it will take a while to filter through
Does anyone feel smite is really underpowered? In contrast, Assail is the wildest OP shit in the game thus far.
dueling sword was pretty much saltz' rapier which is why I used it all the time
check the mk IV heavies and compare them to the deimos
imma be honest that devil claw video does make it look interesting, but with this update there are so many options for crushers specifically
Yeah I guess
But I can absolutely see this getting nerfed
Lmao you can get 45 toughness by scrounging points on the final bottom trees and choosing Telekenetic Shield
yeah that's my opinion as well
whats the most fun build to run
smite does next to no damage but its stun CC is crazy
And it's not that good in other situations
not all blitz need to do insane damage
I always feel like crushers were never the issue
Like, I tried running smite, and had another psyker on my team also with it, and we literally both ran our perils all the way up from frying a single scab.
crushers are definitely not the issue anymore
i rather like smite
It never was before patch either
30% quell speed feels insane, I can totally see running a gun being more appealing when you don't need the staff bonus
its mainly enemies that can put you down quick like snipers, bombers, and trappers
smite feels like an inbetwee of BB and assail but it doesn't looking appealing to me
Muties, hounds, flamers, trappers and grenadiers were more important
Accidentally got a 0 damage taken match lol
Grenadiers also got nerfed
It has the coolest animations, to be sure, but the actual damage potential needs to be much higher. You can't just not be able to kill things in a tide game; even if you're a support class.
they dont seem nerfed?
What's the revolver blessing that stacks with assail?
No longer do you get aoe staggered for an hour
they seem just as easy to kill, i guess the flame effect maybe
right now every blessing does because this is a scuffed as fuck version of the patch
but if anything im glad with that because that stun is ridiculous
but you're thinking of hand-cannon
6 Views. Watch dam she's got an arm and millions of other Warhammer 40,000: Darktide videos on Medal, the #1 Game Clip Platform.
but you should be asking about the blessing that stacks with throwing knives

god damn what the hell was that lol
I'm really dissapointed by smite. Like, man, it does not feel like the vidya version of something that does d3 mortals lol
that rager didnt need to be killed that hard
scier's gaze with assail is fucking awesome
Hand cannon
scrier's gaze wasnt as fun as i hoped it would be
it also makes it hard to use assail as often
Im glad im not the only one, it feels very underwhelming
i have to play with gaze
How?
gaze is definitely more for gun builds
Get crucian roulette too since you want to use the stub revolver sometimes too
i'm really liking the shield even if I have to get used to not being able to panic ult to vent
Then something like 5% crit chance and whatever other perks
man-stopper applies to melee weapons
I like maniac
Disrupt Destiny looks dumb
it makes sense given that gaze was meant for guns lol
stopped men
Watch rest in peas brutal momentum and millions of other Warhammer 40,000: Darktide videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.
It's like Ale
You can take unarmored

But worse
Did they make it even more OP
lmao
i havent tried destiny yet, it did seem kinda eh
that's manstopper + new brumo
thats a bug meme but
Watch deathblow (katena) and millions of other Warhammer 40,000: Darktide videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.
very balanced as you can see
Im pretty sure that isnt possible on classes that isnt zealot
destiny feels very interesting, randomly making an enemy grant 10% toughness on kill is nice and speed is always good
yes thats not brutal momentum
it's manstopper which gives you infinite cleave on crit
on your melee weapon
zealot crit builds are back bby
I'll have to see if I have that in my inventory
Cool
oh wait I need to do the achlys funny

i forgot about this version of the patch lmao
Ten outta ten Disrupt Destiny looks like garbagio
Why shouldn't I just stack +60 toughness on my Psyker
Okay, I misrepresented dueling sword this patch
The increased killing power mingles well with the attack speed and gives it a fairly nice horde clear
they really gave us 20 different toughness regen skills this patch
One-shotting poxwalkers really be bringing it up a notch
Overall I think this patch was a massive upgrade, theyll need to tweak the balance side a bit but I feel like we finally exited Early Access mode.
yep, dueling sword is fast swings with good headshot damage with a pattern that nails the head easily, it's the verm 2 rapier
I wish certain trees didn't lock you out
Like left side skills lock you out of right side and vice versa
Very annoying, I don't care about the minor stuff but a choice earlier shouldn't limit your ability to choose 3 levels later too
some combo's would be broken tho
How
i'd love to get psykentic's aura on my assial/shield build
but passive 10% ult recharge speed will have to do
How is mind in motion going to be gamebreaking
Or Wildfyre
These skills are shiiiit
But kinda funny
You also can't use venting shriek and disrupt destiny together but I'm just not seeing how that would be a problem
is it just me or is soulblaze still crap
Scrier's Gaze is the only real case I can see since that's a damage boost, and the Warp Siphon tree also is a damage boost, but you can still take Warp Rider regardless which is an even bigger damage boost than Warp Siphon
It's still crap yes
what's the dump stat on the revolver? mobility?
Yes
yea
Mobility is the dump stat on everything
Unless you wanna do a run and gun build
thanks dad, glad you came back from the store
It's fine
brain burst seems much safer, more head pops less perils
I cleared maelstrom with this
Arguably critical bonus is also a dump stat since that's still like an extra 12 damage every 20 shots
also did they increase the perils delay?
at 100
wel in that case, time to have hadron brick the others so I can earn the blessing for that one
mostly want to try the broken assail build with that in inventory
Should have used the 80% resource refund exploit when you could
It's still decent on vet tbh
whats the assail build? i liked scriers assail in the paykhanium
I didn't know about that, but I've got so many mats it's ok
What's the shield spam build people are running?
Just take cooldown reduction nodes and the shield
No, assail is absolutely not fine
I've also got this one, not sure how much that affects reload in terms of total time
illuminate me
Inspect it
how are you dealing with monstrosities as psyker in new patch
Autoaim dagger spam that deletes packs of specials
