psyker-class

[left hare]

Is there a breakpoint i need to hit with that build or is it just get a stave with 2 blessings

[idle bay]

Yup.
1)Machinegun-Void staff without animation cancel, just hold RMB and click LMB fast
2) Hold Vent Peril + spam Assail - forget about blowing yourself up.
Any more ? 🙂

[left hare]

infinite dome?

[shadow acorn]

I have Surge and Warp Nexus IV with a 379 Staff. +25% Carp and +25% Unyeilding

[lavish comet]

So its only usable with the bug, compared to the shards?

[gaunt stone]

It's not good imo without it.

[urban dove]

Infinite dome
Infinite palp hands

[gaunt stone]

I wanna like smite but using it normally feels just bad. Cause there is the delay of swapping to it, then you gotta charge it and it's very short.

[urban dove]

For the record I haven't tested if the infinite dome thing works with the walls version

Because that could be better tbh

[lavish comet]

Just call it unlimited Power Please!

[gaunt stone]

Like it's alot of effort to get it off imo.

[shadow quail]

Infinate surge with EP, infinate shielkds with void, just void damage in general.

[shadow acorn]

For those with mods, what is the normal ish amount of damage you get in a damnation game?

[gaunt stone]

I feel like stuns should be a oh shit button not a whole ordeal

[urban dove]

What's the difference between left click and right click on the surge hands ?

[idle bay]

Read about the dome, but palp hands? How?

[shadow acorn]

A nice lil push or full on chain.

[thorn tapir]

please fix dome, as a dome main i find it kind of annoying to constantly get free domes.

[urban dove]

You have to have 1 charge of the Enhanced Psyonics then use surge and hold it . No peril gain

[thorn tapir]

im intentionally trying not to abuse it

[analog agate]

500-600k. Void build

[ornate hamlet]

i like the enhanced psyonics

i just wished it made brain burst do a little more damage

[shadow acorn]

Thanks, that seems to be where I am at. Noticed a big push up in damage today though.

[idle bay]

Cool. Sad thing that both surge hands and surge staff a SUCK worse tha Abaddon in every Black Crausade...

[urban dove]

I want to make like a full build with enhanced psychics and Asail. But I just end up killing myself

[ornate hamlet]

brain buest pairs well with it

[urban dove]

For cc not dammage

[ornate hamlet]

i think thats kind of what its mainly made for

[lavish comet]

Before or after Cadia?

[idle bay]

Surge staff was my favorite and they... they KILLED it 😦

[grand lake]

im reading a lot of "void" is broken, why is that? You guys are talking about the chi ball staff right ?

[lofty temple]

It's a plasma gun now, bro...

use it that way

[urban dove]

I bet but if I was gonna do a BB build I would use the left keystone and use the shout for infinite fast casts

[analog agate]

Surge and warp nexus on it

[lavish comet]

2-Tab Crushers with no perks...

[gaunt stone]

Tbh if they nerf Assail idk how you play Surge staff I feel like they work well together.

[grand lake]

what are these

[idle bay]

He sucked his bigged D. on Cadia, and his throat was so sore after that that he thrown tantrun and blew up the planet 🙂

[ornate hamlet]

dude you can still pretty much do that

with the enhanced pysonics

[analog agate]

Blessings.

[ornate hamlet]

its so easy constantly getting charges for it

[urban dove]

Idk bb just feels slow ya know?

[ornate hamlet]

all you need is purg staff and a chads strut

[ornate hamlet]

yes but thats why you save the charges for stuff like bosses and ogryn based enemies

its meant to be a tank sniper

[shadow acorn]

How is purgatus now? Anyone mess around with it today?

[ornate hamlet]

i use it

still good

[gaunt stone]

I did it's more or less the same

[ornate hamlet]

still fucks hard

[urban dove]

Shit. Wait till we get a soulflame skill tree

[idle bay]

Siblings - what to do with our Boss damage after patch?

[shadow acorn]

But it didn't get the lords buff like the Void?

[gaunt stone]

Boss damage still weakish

[lavish comet]

Anyone tested the good old BURN THEM ALL strategy?
Is Purgatus any good?

[ornate hamlet]

have they confirmed more skill trees?

[urban dove]

Nah

Just copium

[analog agate]

Hope there are other classes with you

[indigo portal]

Still the same.

Works, isn't broken, isn't bad.

[ornate hamlet]

hope they do something like that or flat out add a new class like a tech priest thing or a ratling

[idle bay]

Gun psykeriing maybe.. ?

[gaunt stone]

I don't acknowledge that.

[ornate hamlet]

shredder psyker and revolver psyker

good shit

[urban dove]

As a purge main I just copuim for a soulflame skill tree. And a soulflame skill/blitz

[thorn tapir]

I played 3 auric 5 games of psyker today. still slaps.

[idle bay]

MKIII headhunter autogaun is love

[urban dove]

Idk why we got a lightning blitz

[ornate hamlet]

nah mate

[gaunt stone]

Same

[ornate hamlet]

be a fucking psychic flak canon

[manic flint]

@urban dove could be cool if you could spend a talent to turn it into flames.

[shadow acorn]

Just put in a perk where we get +50% power, but if you blow up you turn into a choas spawn.

[ornate hamlet]

use the revolver

[thorn tapir]

all the soulblaze talents are still there and more accessable.

[idle bay]

Used to be fav weapon on all human sized operatives. Though it only deal good boss damage on Vet...

[urban dove]

Yes I know dear sister but they are more like sidethoughts not a main build

[gaunt stone]

I was expecting like a sienna ult from pyromancer or the battle mage dash tbh

[shadow quail]

The left tree is mainly focused on soulflame?

[urban dove]

There's 3 perks bros and sisters

[thorn tapir]

kind of... nothing that amps soulflames damage or utility.

sorry soulblaze

[urban dove]

Three whole perks for soulflame . But nothing that adds new stuff to soul blaze

Like I said a blitz or a skill for soul blaze would have been dope

[idle bay]

if only Fatsharked amped Soulfire damage like they did with Bleed

[thorn tapir]

fire is way harder to balance than bleed

[urban dove]

I would have preferred any thing else besides Unlimited power. Cuz wr already had a staff for that no need to add a blitz for it

[gaunt stone]

Psyker needs a soul blaze grenade launcher staff

[regal jasper]

I got the voice line where my psyker referred to beloved as a he and i shouted “im gay?!?!?!” Very loudly

[idle bay]

Balance is Heresy. Let us have unlimited unhiged FUN!

[lofty temple]

I love it

It's good

Smite is good

[urban dove]

Good for you brother box

[lofty temple]

Surge is good

[shadow quail]

What other staff has 3 passives and 1 active dedicated to it? 🤷‍♂️

[thorn tapir]

it took you this long to figure it out??

😮

[regal jasper]

Yeah my old boyfriend never told me

[idle bay]

This patch i think i'll hit 1500 missions mark way sooner than i expected 🙂

[urban dove]

These trees have no synergy with anything tho

[lofty temple]

Perildump into a horde with smite, press F to cast soulblaze on the horde

Add wildfire into the mix...

[urban dove]

Like I said soulblaze is currently am after thought. You just have it as a side part of a different main build

[primal radish]

wait so warp charges are a keystone now and not every build even uses warp charges??

[lofty temple]

Yeah.

[primal radish]

no more having to maintain stacks if u go other keystones

[gaunt stone]

Yup

[shadow quail]

Name a staff with as many perks dedicated to it.

[regal jasper]

Do the old penances need to be fixed?

[urban dove]

Welcome brother Kayl

[urban dove]

Surge? . Void?

[primal radish]

im free from warp charge stacks ho yeaaa

[idle bay]

Other keystones - you have to keep an eye on another stacks 🙂

[lofty temple]

I'm not

[shadow quail]

No.

[lofty temple]

I still take my trusty warp charges

[shadow quail]

There is a flame perk at every section of the talent tree on the left.

[urban dove]

Also with this active of a chat can we talk about the skill tree racism ? 🤔

[lavish comet]

It feels like I have to... just for the Peril resistance^^

[lofty temple]

I took Essence Harvest...

[urban dove]

Why do we have diagonally connectors and the other classes have strait lines ?

[lofty temple]

Psykers are crazy and wacky and crooked and their tree reflects that

[idle bay]

Each time i re-build my psyker i have to go grab last one missing +15 toughness node and it's sucks

[shadow quail]

So we can mix and match more than any other class

[urban dove]

It's so hard for us to pivot

[urban dove]

No that's the opposite of the trees

We can't mix like others can

[idle bay]

There will be wave of nerfs ofc beacuse whinly little b... on forums 🙂

[urban dove]

Because of the strait lines on all other class trees they can go from far right to far left easy. We can't We have to go down diagonal

[white hemlock]

all fire all the time felt strong

[lethal plover]

while smiting can people block or do sth ?

[cyan notch]

no

[honest frigate]

No

[lethal plover]

what's the strategy to play smiting well

feels like it's easy to get interrupted by randos

[honest frigate]

Stay back and CC the hordes

Idk Smite honestly seems like a support blitz ability

Its not bad

[idle bay]

Don't smith when you are alone.

[honest frigate]

Its jsut not very offensive

[idle bay]

Whole point of simte to CC enemies for your team to kill them easier

[honest frigate]

Yeah

[lethal plover]

yeah it's not very offensive but I just saw a good smite player in auric maelstrom and it was the easiest run I had so far

[honest frigate]

And smite is able to stunlock even stuff like maniacs

[lethal plover]

makes my job so much easier

[honest frigate]

Its good

[ionic needle]

Why can't I pick assail and psykinetic aura!? God damn it fatshark

[idle bay]

It takes AGES to kill basic trash with smite... so

[honest frigate]

It do be like that

[idle bay]

Assail to Powerful by itsels 🙂 They had to takes goodies from us to compensate'

[lethal plover]

now I feel like there has to be a dedicated smite player who can stop the train of crushers

[honest frigate]

Yeah Assail is really good

[ionic needle]

It's extra frustrating because it's just a single node away... in the wrong direction :<

[wild bramble]

Is the psyker most popular class now? I played with 3 psyker teams today

[idle bay]

Just Charge Void them to stop that smash train...

[honest frigate]

Its definitely much more fun... not that it wasnt beforr already

[lethal plover]

I was the one on void duty while the other was smiting

[honest frigate]

Spamming warp shards everywhere is very epic

[lethal plover]

it's definitely much easier when you have both

[ionic needle]

Yeah assail is a lot of fun, just have to figure out what to pair it with to still delete carapace

[lethal plover]

infinite duration smiting almost seems like a bug

[dense prism]

assail have been really good so far

[ionic needle]

It's probably a bug, the effect isn't listed in the tooltip

[wild bramble]

Is smiting more like supportive or dps?

[lethal plover]

entirely support

[honest frigate]

You dont always need to be a jack of all trades smh

Voidstrike is good tho

[ionic needle]

I don't need to, but that's how I like to play

[idle bay]

Assail in team makes "kill 750 dregs/scabs in melee " weekly nearly impossible

[lethal plover]

you won't kill anything but your team will have it much easier, especially against crushers trains

[wild bramble]

Did they made surge staff range smaller?

[idle bay]

WAY smaller and it barely chains now

[lofty temple]

Surge staff is the plasma gun now

[ionic needle]

Is it good vs carapace?

[lofty temple]

Put warp nexus on it

And enjoy

[idle bay]

I liked old Surge staff more

[lofty temple]

It does like 800 or so damage

[lethal plover]

old surge was too good so they split damage aspect into the staff and CC into the smite

[lofty temple]

No it wasn't lol

It dealt horrible damage

[dense prism]

agaisnt armored surge do decent damage

[tired estuary]

its a shame at least some of the surgebrains are going to move on to using smite on horde now

[ionic needle]

So maybe pair assail with surge and illisi?

[lethal plover]

that's the point, new surge has better damage and new blitz has better CC
old surge has a mix of both

[dense prism]

surge was really strong due to the fact that surge have a niche of providng good CC.

[wild bramble]

Is the normal shield skill or circle shield better?

[lofty temple]

My near godrolled surge can almost 1shot most specials now

If I roll a new one, with better perks...

[ionic needle]

What perks and blessings do you want on it?

[idle bay]

Hardon bricked all and every good Surge staffs i was able to get .....

[dense ivy]

BRUH

I can two shot crushers witha Voidstrike

[lethal plover]

yeah we can kill stuff pretty well now
the game will just spawn many more elites / specials

[dense ivy]

I have the "double shot on crit" blessing too

[lofty temple]

I think I'd like Maniac and Carapace

or Unyielding

[dense ivy]

So if I crit I straight one shot a Crusher

https://tenor.com/view/lin-manuel-miranda-ecstatic-applause-clap-gif-8765685

How quick is this getting dumpstered

[lethal plover]

yes voidstrike headshot deals like 2700 or oneshot on crit sth on crushers

[idle bay]

And if it's Void with surge blessing.... you have an Overkill shot

[lethal plover]

but in a real match getting a full charge can be rough

[lofty temple]

You can get a 50/50 crit chance on Surge

[dense ivy]

I mean

ONLY killing them in 3 shots is hardly that bad if you spam it at 50%

[lethal plover]

that's why when I used void with a good smiter nearby it was a cakewalk

[neat hearth]

There have been so many listerine psykers today holy shit
Purgatorus my beloved

[lofty temple]

What makes a smiter good?

[dense ivy]

New brainburst is very good with peril reduction tree

[manic flint]

Listerine psykers?

[lethal plover]

smite for the whole encounter without being interrupted

[neat hearth]

I call the Purgatorus Staff the "Listerine Staff" since it looks like you're just burning enemies with listerine breath

[manic flint]

ahahahahahaha

[idle bay]

Yeah color is 1:1 like Listerine

[neat hearth]

Can confirm this; used it with listerine staff and got so much CDR alongside being able to spam screm

[idle bay]

Though i switched to SPLAT

[neat hearth]

It feels like the old meta psyker build I used but far more fun and flexible

[humble swan]

so, how important is first target%? xd

[neat hearth]

eh

[ionic needle]

Not very, that's an incredible deimos

[neat hearth]

80/80/80/80

God I'd kill for that level of consistency

[lofty temple]

trash it

[humble swan]

done

[ionic needle]

Anyone else experienced Melk being nicer after the patch? Seems like I got 365+ on all my items yesterday

Not Melk, Brunt

[lethal plover]

is it really worth trying to optimize a few percentages in those stats. I usually take anything with >70 on the stats

[teal needle]

Brunt stole like 200k from me today so no

[lofty temple]

Wasn't that great anyway

[steel flame]

hehehehehe the new surge m1 go brrrrrrrrhttps://streamable.com/v3dtvl

[ionic needle]

Curse him

[lofty temple]

You do need first target

[crude cape]

wanna try some non force sword builds.
what about 1h chainsword. Bloodletter + what? is devastating strike or wrath worth? how would you guys build it

[lofty temple]

savage sweep

[humble swan]

letsgo, based group

[neat hearth]

Ah yes the "I throw my balls at them" Psyker build

[lofty temple]

it's consistent, it's good

[steel flame]

the damage is just ludicrous

them uncapping the quell canceling speed is a blessing

[fallow meadow]

Just came back to the game and did some testing. So the Assail's homing is more like a laser guide missile, interesting.

[lethal plover]

more like you throw and pray

[manic flint]

how do you do it so quickly?

[lethal plover]

at longer range whether it hits the sniper is up to god

[thorn kestrel]

Drugs

and a lot of corpse starch

[idle bay]

Just click faster

[lethal plover]

or use macros

[steel flame]

its called quell canceling, you hit r after every cast

[manic flint]

oh.

my.

god.

[idle bay]

It;s like limiter is off LBM clicks on every staff

[steel flame]

it cancels the end of the cast animation and lets you immidiatly go into another

works on every m1 and m2

[idle bay]

And there is no need to quell canceling anymore it works without it now

[steel flame]

triples how fast you can fire off trauma staff shots

[fallow meadow]

Didn't holding RMB make it better at long range? It didn't pen through wall so it is no very good on that though.

[lethal plover]

yes I was referring to RMB for assail

throw it at sniper whether it hits is random

[hybrid solstice]

what are good blessings for voidstrike now

[steel flame]

thats true for void staff but its still needed for the m1 on staves and for trauma and purgatus staff since they still have a cast animation to be canceled

[steel flame]

nexus+surge

[hybrid solstice]

ah okay

[steel flame]

will oneshot crushers in a crit

[hybrid solstice]

unfortunately i do not have surge

[lavish comet]

that feels right^^

[steel flame]

its the rarest blessing on void staff

[primal radish]

assail is fun because its busted, im gonna start playing games without a ranged wep lmao

[azure veldt]

I've only used and seen others use the dome.

[lethal plover]

you will need an anti-crusher or anti-horde tool to go with assail

maybe anti-sniper too

[teal needle]

VS is both ;D

[lethal plover]

yeah void makes a lot of sense

[ocean cipher]

is this a premium hat

[azure veldt]

Yes

[hollow current]

yeah

[ocean cipher]

damn

that is actually the best drip i've ever seen

[steel flame]

oop

[idle bay]

Not fabulous enough to wear for me. But it still bought it

[hollow current]

1400 aquilas i think

[steel flame]

here

https://streamable.com/7d5ua4

[lethal plover]

looking fabulous? found the slaanesh follower

[lavish comet]

https://tenor.com/view/it's-fine-im-fine-its-fine-im-fine-fine-everything-is-fine-gif-4044255692100841679

[idle bay]

Best looking headwear is hood with googles for old redacted penances before they were made easier

[steel flame]

yeah so uh, voids probably gonna get tuned down just a teeny bit

[primal radish]

does True Aim work with assail? can assail crit

[lavish comet]

It feels like the whole class will get that treatment^^

[lethal plover]

I don't see the need to, because the game just throws 10 more crushers at you now in auric maelstrom

and charging void takes work

[steel flame]

.....

im not sure how to respond to that

[hollow current]

the mostly melee auric maelstrom modifier is crazy with crushers, rager, maulers and bulwarks

[lethal plover]

yeah an hour or two ago right

crusher trains

[lavish comet]

https://tenor.com/view/turning-red-mei-mei-mad-are-you-serious-mei-lee-gif-25588426

[wild bramble]

Is the dome circle one?

[hollow current]

That soul blaze talent/node is crazy good though

[neat hearth]

Bro just wear the default grey clothing to Auric missions
Looks hilarious just seeing three pimped out people and then Dave the Intern

[steel flame]

no the dome is clearly a square

[hollow current]

A couple times ran into groups of 20 of the armored elites and after killing a few the rest died within seconds

[crude cape]

\

[fallow meadow]

What is smite good for, just a lighter surge staff?

[lethal plover]

by armored elites are you counting crushers

smite is infinite duration CC

[steel flame]

all these squares make a circle all these squares make a circle all these squares make a circle

[hollow current]

yeah

[wild bramble]

Lol sry my english is not great

[snow scaffold]

Void is kinda fun actually

[steel flame]

well.....surge is now for damage

single target

kidna

[lethal plover]

not single but definitely few

[lofty temple]

Have you tried the new surge staff yet?

[snow scaffold]

I like this new surge staff update

[hollow current]

200+ melee elites

[steel flame]

the m1 on the new surge is stupid

i love it

[snow scaffold]

I might stick with it

[fallow meadow]

Wait, what? What happen when I was gone.

[hollow current]

was using trauma for the cc.

[snow scaffold]

hows trauma now?

haven't tried it yet

[steel flame]

for one there is this https://streamable.com/v3dtvl

[wild bramble]

old sutge is now smite

[lethal plover]

trauma can punch behind bulwark

[snow scaffold]

smite is super colorful

[plucky flax]

It's op.

[lofty temple]

Surge chains 2 enemies and deals huuuge damage to one

[manic flint]

lol, i see a pattern.

[lethal plover]

well there are many options for bulwark as psyker now

[hollow current]

Yeah biggest buff to Trauma is it can knock down bulwarks more easily. Damage got a big buff. 2 shot ragers. 3 shot crushers and maulers. at least with my build

[snow scaffold]

with this update I've seen more psykers than any other classes

[ornate hamlet]

ngl I

[steel flame]

even better than before, quelling no longer gets rid of flurry stacks, fire trauma is stupid good with the fire changes, and the straight buff to quell canceling and all the crit chance buffs, Rending got buffed

[ornate hamlet]

I think assail is randomly good

[lethal plover]

psyker dome shield is just great

[neat hearth]

I went into a match with THREE DOME SHIELD PSYKERS and the entire FUCKING time it was like I was a part of some godforsaken Venn Diagram

[ornate hamlet]

it obviously clears crowds of light enemies well, but sometimes it just shits the bed and does whatever it wants

[neat hearth]

It was amazing

[plucky flax]

Yeah psyker dome is so op in hishock and above.

[neat hearth]

but oh god my eyes

[snow scaffold]

what blessings do you recommend for trauma staff?

[fallow meadow]

Trauma feels the same. Single game on hi5 only though.

[plucky flax]

Trauma does a lot more damage.

Crazy buff.

[steel flame]

either take , rending shockwave and flurry, or nexus and blazing spirit

[hollow current]

two builds for trauma is rending shockwave + warp flurry and blazing spirit + warp nexus

[ornate hamlet]

I should probably try the stun wall because I honestly have the same problem with gaze as I had with volley fire

I keep saving it for "that one moment" and it never comes

[steel egret]

All the staffs also feel faster now

[lofty temple]

"I'll protect you!"

[ornate hamlet]

and stun wall + smite is basically "I wanna see you move, fuckhead"

[steel flame]

fire/nexus for a crits build (better purgatus), rending/flurry for fuck everything build

[azure veldt]

Psyker class is the best. My opinion is not subjective in the slightest.

But seriously, we've got SO MANY tools - and cool effects, combos etc... and insane DPS at pretty much any range.

[valid marsh]

I think trauma needed epicentre radius, not damage

[steel egret]

True

[fallow meadow]

Trauma was already good in my memory. Did FS just buff all the staffs?

[steel flame]

trauma really didnt need anything

[steel egret]

Yes

[cosmic sigil]

Does shredder psyker still work?

[lethal plover]

yeah all the staves are fun now

[snow scaffold]

Well I haven't tried Orgyn yet but I've maybe seen one Orygn in 6 games

[steel flame]

yes, but pinning fire got nerfed into the ground

[dense prism]

speaking of trauma staff is rending shockwave good with the staff

[steel egret]

Yes with different blessings

[azure veldt]

Yes. With pretty much any combat ability so far for me.

[steel flame]

yes, rending got buffed,

[dense prism]

nice

[lethal plover]

I have rending on my trauma though I honestly don't know how to compare

[dense prism]

I still have my trauma force staff with level 3 rending

[cosmic sigil]

Well, it was well deserved tbh. It was fun while it lasted

[hollow current]

it definitely kills faster, tho the charge time feels the same if not slower when you consider the nerf to warp flurry.

For Trauma at least.

[steel flame]

thing with rending is that it doesnt buff the traumas damage since it already bypasses armor, but it really buffs everyone elses damage

[cosmic sigil]

I assume the toughness regen and maybe blaze?

[steel flame]

NERF?

NERF?

[steel egret]

Tbh I think all charged staff attacks are faster or warp flurry works better

[magic hull]

ok first impression, the shards are ridiculous

[steel flame]

FLURRY WAS NOT NERFED

FLURRY GOT BUFFED

[steel egret]

Yes

[steel flame]

you can quell without losing stacks now

[lofty temple]

WHAT

[lethal plover]

yeah shards make solo clutch quite viable. psykers no longer fear rows of gunners and specials

[steel egret]

Dont take feat for soulfire, no warp charges taken

If I understood correctly

[dense prism]

is scier any good?

[ornate hamlet]

They never did if you had a gun

[fallow meadow]

Do surge still run in crit build?

[steel egret]

Or does it still take them

[steel flame]

yes

[ornate hamlet]

Scrier is volley fire for psykers

[hollow current]

Eh I'd consider that a side-grade but I get the point. 50% to 25.5 is noticeable decrease even if you keep your stacks.

[steel egret]

The only staff with critical modifiers?

[steel flame]

there is still a feat for warpcharges gained with fire kills

[steel egret]

Yes

[hollow current]

But given the other changes, it's hardly inappropiate given how powerful it is.

[ionic needle]

Scrier with Assail seems like it could be good if I just played better and didn't explode myself

[steel flame]

do YOU WANT CRITS???? HAVE SOME CRITS https://streamable.com/v3dtvl

[lethal plover]

I believe scrier is more meant for gun psykers to spam

[ionic needle]

Can't quell with your gun out though

[steel egret]

Yeah the build up gets pretty crazy

Cant even quell it

[ionic needle]

You can quell scrier

[steel flame]

ALL THE CRITS ALL THE TIME, EVERYTHING DIES, TIME TO GO HOME

[steel egret]

I played matches in which my staff quell wasnt enough

If it was left to be

I did have extended time on it thought

[ionic needle]

It's not enough after a while, but getting 25+ stacks with just your hand quell isn't too hard

[steel egret]

Staff is faster and still wasnt enough

[steel flame]

i use scrier for surge staff so i can go crazy mod and muder everything in front of me in a 20 mile radius as seen above

the peril gen gets faster and faster and only slows down with kills

[ionic needle]

Did you get the quell speed talent?

[steel egret]

Yes

[steel flame]

its meant to be like that

[manic flint]

i just got my zealot, their tree looks much nicer in layow.

[steel egret]

But the peril build up ramps up

[manic flint]

layout.

[dense prism]

for surge build which of the blitz should I take?

[steel egret]

Longer it runs

[steel flame]

because scrier only ends with peril hits 100%

[steel egret]

I can quell it just fine for its normal period

[steel flame]

i take lightning

[fallow meadow]

Even staff quell can't handle it when it stack close to 30

[ionic needle]

Yeah I'm talking about getting stacks in the 20-25 range though, maxing it seems unnecessary for the amount of queeling that's needed

[steel egret]

It wasnt the one with 15 time which you could extend to 30 with a feat on it

[lofty temple]

Anything except Brain Burst

[dense prism]

k

going for crit build

[steel flame]

thats destiny

[steel egret]

Or was that the amount of stacks

I dont play destiny

[steel flame]

the perk you numpty

[lethal plover]

the only real niche for brain burst now is anti-sniper

[steel egret]

Yes

[ionic needle]

Which assail also does

BB is good vs carapace though

[lethal plover]

at long range assail is throw and pray

[ionic needle]

Doesn't the aim work pretty well?

Pretty sure I hit a sniper from pretty far yesterday

[fallow meadow]

Yeah, scier is much better with guns. Take too much time to handle the peril for staff.

[steel flame]

wrong build

[lethal plover]

oh no, I hit it often. but it's just not that reliable or fast.

[hollow current]

also I think rending shockwave does increase damage against armor by some way. When attacking a crusher I do 944 on the first charge then 1180 on the second or roughly 25% more damage on the second attack.

[ionic needle]

Ah okay

[steel flame]

THIS is the build i use for crit surge

i use scrier for when i want to nuke everything in front of me

[lethal plover]

speaking of which, do people one-shot snipers with RMB assail? My build doesn't currently

[astral oracle]

god

i love warp siphon being fucking broken

[thorn kestrel]

BB is still pretty consistent as it can pratically handle anything unlike assail

[hollow current]

mine does when I headshot them. I got warpstacks tho.

[lethal plover]

ok warpstacks is the trick

[astral oracle]

i love that warp siphon may have been an oversight and they may have made each warp siphon ability cooldown be 75% instead of 7.5%

[lethal plover]

but then you'd give up on empowered huh

[ionic needle]

Assail is pretty consistent with hitting weakspots right?

[lethal plover]

yes it tends to go for the heads

[thorn kestrel]

Really good against anything un-carapaced tbh

[left hare]

for void strike do u full charge or instant click

[astral oracle]

50 domes on the map is beautiful

so many domes...

[hollow current]

carapace is the only thing that assail isn't good against yeah

[lethal plover]

insta click can be spammed but damage isn't much. half charge is where I tend to stay (it one shots zombies). full charge for crushers etc

[primal radish]

i wanna see a 4 psyker team with all assail just running thru the map demolishing everything

[fallow meadow]

Normal headshot assail only do 475 on sniper, not enough to one shot. Need some extra for it.

[quartz eagle]

is the perk for using your right hold block to count peril instead of stamina still a thing?

if that sentence made any sense

[astral oracle]

yes

[quartz eagle]

what's it called?

i can't find it

[lethal plover]

kinetic deflection

[ionic needle]

Imagining that scene from guardians of the galaxy 2

[lethal plover]

right side tree, near bottom

I always pick that of course

[quartz eagle]

ty spotted it

[primal radish]

nothing is a problem for assail except carapace which is so easy to kill

[ionic needle]

How do you deal with carapace?

[hollow current]

I seem to one hit snipers even with 0 warp stacks but I also got the 10% elite and special damage aura.

[primal radish]

melee or surge

or void or any ranged

[left hare]

deimos or let someone else deal with it

or surge void

void goes hard

[lethal plover]

basically void when you face a horde of crushers

[hollow current]

honestly any of the staffs but purg can deal with carapace albeit in different ways

[ionic needle]

Gonna try out surge this evening I think. Illisi should be good enough for horde clear

[lofty temple]

I might be stupid

[idle bay]

Make an Emprah picture with domes.

[lofty temple]

For my Palpatine build I took a dueling sword

[flint pawn]

First time hitting 600k damage in a match

[lofty temple]

I have very unreliable horde clear

[ionic needle]

Nice, not even a lot of overkill

[flint pawn]

I love new Chainsword

[ionic needle]

Have to try it out

[flint pawn]

Only weapon I'm ever using on Psyker from now on

[lofty temple]

Everytime I see a screenshot of a scoreboard my eyes hurt

[flint pawn]

Chainsword with Bloodletter and +25% Unyielding paired with Assail has just about everything covered

[lofty temple]

I was the OG Bloodletter Chainsword advocate

[flint pawn]

I tried it before but I preferred combat knife in its role

But now it's amazing

Idk what staff to pair with Chainsword + Dome + Assail so I just tacked on Surge since Bulwarks and Crusher have been particularly annoying

[harsh urchin]

wow

i'm really really really

not impressed

by disrupt destiny LOL

[slow raven]

major weakness of the assail build is monstrosities

they have like double the hp as before so the lack of boss dps is really really noticeable

[astral oracle]

don't need deflection when you can spawn 20 domes and get like 500 toughness per second.

kek

[slow raven]

so far all my wipes have been because everyone is playing psyker and trying assail so we cant kill bosses for shit

[lethal plover]

dome goes down quickly if too many enemies shoot at it right?

[astral oracle]

probably yeah

[ionic needle]

Bloodletter and what other blessing? Is your other perk carapace?

[lethal plover]

yeah as assail player I might need someone to carry a boltgun for bosses

[ionic needle]

Also, what blessings and perks are good for surge?

[lethal plover]

how good is purgatus at killing bosses ?

[steel flame]

nexus

[flint pawn]

This is mine

Wrath works fine for me, idk about Infested, don't care too much about it, all I really need was Unyielding

[hollow current]

the talent page needs a search bar so we can look up specific nodes

[dense ivy]

Alright thoughts

Soulblaze is still completely fucking useless unless you're using blue flamethrower

[midnight kiln]

Does surge on Trauma Staff now does the double attack with secondary attack too?

[dense ivy]

Kinetic Flayer is still completely fucking useless in general because 15 second cooldown

[steel flame]

i prefer terrifying barrage with nexus rather than flurry

[flint pawn]

Chainsword solves that for me

[dense ivy]

5% toughness DR is just statistically worse than 15 toughness by every metric I can figure

[flint pawn]

Chaos Spawn is the only problem if it gets upset with you in particular

[steel flame]

wot. soulblaze its totally busted when used with blazing spirit trauma too

[slow raven]

chainsword has good boss damage now?

ill have to try it

[hollow current]

perilous combustion is easy and cheap to get and very effective when the elites get dense.

[dense ivy]

That's what I said

[steel flame]

you said flamethrower

[lethal plover]

trauma is not purgatus

[steel flame]

which is purgatus

[spice veldt]

depends on what soulblaze source you're referring to

[flint pawn]

#psyker-class message

All of the damage I did on this scoreboard was from the Chainsword

[spice veldt]

perilous combustion is very good

[flint pawn]

The boss damage*

[dense ivy]

Oh you said purgatus at first

[flint pawn]

Chainsword revved lights with Bloodletter absolutely shreds bosses

[steel flame]

funny thing is blazing spirit void got worse, specifically because void go so much better, since its killing most in one shot the fire doesnt get to spread as much

[spark fractal]

Need an ogryn gunlugger with the fire perk to absolutely melt bosses

[flint pawn]

Don't even have to hit Beast of Nurgle's weak point I just drop my shield and rev it to death while it can't touch me

[dense ivy]

Void is fucking cracked rn

Soulsteeler + Warp Expenditure just to get Battle Meditation

Never explode

Always full toughness

Everything dies

[spark fractal]

How are you getting multiple shields?

[flint pawn]

I only need one

[hollow current]

it's bugged right now to where 1 warp charge refunds your shield

[flint pawn]

I walk in front of the Beast of Nurgle and drop the shield and spam light revs

[dense ivy]

I'm also using Telekine Shield just to get True Aim Kinetic Deflection Warp Rider and then go into Warp Siphon

[flint pawn]

You can walk back just far enough while locked onto him so that he can't eat you

And his vomit is blocked by the shield

[dense ivy]

Really kinda sucks though shield is fairly useful

[flint pawn]

So it can't touch you

[dense ivy]

It doesn't block snipers though

Which is cringe

[spiral lion]

ah so thats what it was

[steel flame]

i love how they positioned the ranged crits grant immunity to ranged attacks, JUST outside of where crit fire builds can get it, GAH

[hollow current]

I noticed something funky right away too and then saw it put together somewhere around here.

[lethal plover]

does psyker dome shield block snipers?

[steel flame]

yup

sure do

so do the wall

[dense ivy]

The flat shield sure doesn't

Or mine bugged or something

[steel flame]

really?

seems like it do

[lethal plover]

maybe he shot from above

[hollow current]

I wonder if it's a thing where the sniper locks onto outside of the shield and you walk in, it'll still hurt you.

[steel flame]

probably

wouldnt be suprised with fatshark spagetti code

[hollow current]

I've been domed behind cover like that before.

[dense ivy]

My tree looks dumb

But everything dies in 1 or 2 hits with voidstrike

And I have double shot on crit voidstrike blessing, so the guarnateed crit after 5 weakspot hits with True Aim is hilarious

I really wish I could just take venting shriek and still be able to do this though

[ionic needle]

I played like four games yesterday until I noticed this little bugger right here

[dense ivy]

I've killed myself three times tonight because I keep forgetting

[ionic needle]

Amazing talent and I just didn't pick it because blind

[dense ivy]

Soulstealer is kinda ridiculous

[ionic needle]

Yeah

[dense ivy]

You don't have much toughness but whenever you kill a thing you're now back to full

[hollow current]

And it works with assail

At least it feels like it. Easy panic toughness

[dense ivy]

If you really wanted to

You can take every single toughness generation passive

[ionic needle]

Dome + Assail + Soulstealer and you're just unkillable

[primal radish]

can I get 3 psykers with Assail to try a meme run

[dense ivy]

I don't think you need to because if you kill 6 poxwalkers you're already at full toughness

[ornate hamlet]

Assail deez nuts

[ionic needle]

Yeah, really makes me rethink my curio choices

I have toughness regen on all of them but hardly needed

[dense ivy]

I just went max health and block cost reduction

Because you can get kinetic deflection too

[ionic needle]

Ability recharge?

[dense ivy]

If you're doing a CDR build I'd swap it for health yeah

[ionic needle]

But that's only 4% off of a 30-40s CD, so might not be worth it

[dense ivy]

If you stack all three with 12% and take the cdr abilities it's about a 30% cdr total

[primal radish]

Can 3 psykers join my group and try an all assail build pls, DM to join group don't need voice chat

[ionic needle]

That's pretty good

[dense ivy]

The main thing is just psykenetic aura

5% cdr per elite kill

[ionic needle]

Can't get that with assail though :<

I really like assail

[dense ivy]

It's locked out of assail but is generally cracked, if you're NOT running assail you don't need cdr

[hollow current]

Why not abuse the warp charge bug while it's here.

[dense ivy]

What bug is that

[hollow current]

if you take warp siphon and shield, so long as you have 1 warp charge when you cast the shield, you still have your shield.

if you farm another warp charge, you can put another shield on. and so on

[ionic needle]

Ooooh that's what happened yesterday

[dense ivy]

Oh yeah

[ionic needle]

I could do endless domes and had no idea why

[dense ivy]

They brought the cdr bug back

In a new and amazing way

Disrupt Destiny is such balls though

Oh wow thanks 4% damage

[hollow current]

I played one game with it then stopped. Gonna let someone else figure it out.

[dense ivy]

Meanwhile I'm sitting over here with 70% effective peril reduction popping brain blasts every 1.25 seconds

[ionic needle]

Not really a fan of how quicken is baseline for warp charges now

I want to KEEP them damn it

[dense ivy]

I don't like it but you can get the charges back basically instantly

So it's w/e

In Fire Reborn is dogshit without a purgatus

And with a purgatus you don't actually need it anyways

You should just take psychic vampire because you'll get more charges with it faster with every staff because your allies are getting stacks for you instead of you relying on a DoT to finish off enemies

I guess you could take it with a trauma but? That thing mostly just gibs what it hits so again, just take the chance to get a charge on kill

[left hare]

i love this wall

how did i live without this wall

🫂

[hollow current]

For a specific build I suppose.

[tropic scarab]

Psykers today.

[cyan echo]

Haven't tried Assail yet, is it nice?

[bleak tulip]

very

[tropic scarab]

It's a bit broken. They basically never have to take their gun out if they manage it right.

[ionic needle]

Haha, that was my exact thought when I first tried out assail. The inspiration is quite on the nose.

[gaunt wagon]

debatably better than purg on horde clear

[left hare]

when i used assail i legit forgot i had a stave

[tropic scarab]

That's why it's called the Yondu build.

[ionic needle]

Oooh Yondu is his name! I couldn't remember it for the life of me

[cyan echo]

i've been going with Smite + Void Staff and thought that was working pretty well

[left hare]

I also forgot about using illisi

lol

I should probably pick up dueling swords

[astral oracle]

I'ma try Assail now until I get a trauma with soulblaze

[left hare]

assail is my new main weapon

[astral oracle]

Then I can just meme with warp stack dome after

[vivid saffron]

Void likely to get nerfed? I don’t wanna get used to it, only for FS to make that build poopoo

[bleak tulip]

the only reason you cant really get away with only using assail is its piss poor performance against carapace

[cyan echo]

is Trauma staff good now? Haven't used it in like a year

[left hare]

does full charge void strike knock down crusher?

[vivid saffron]

Trauma is good. Void is better

[bleak tulip]

maybe a bit, unlikely to make it unusable its so overtuned rn

[cyan echo]

I remember Trauma generating so much peril

[left hare]

also what relics do people run on their psykers now

[vivid saffron]

It 2-shots Crushers without +Carapace

[bleak tulip]

Trauma is solid

[vivid saffron]

Does that answer your question?

[left hare]

toughness + stam?

[bleak tulip]

probably still second best staff

[vivid saffron]

Agreed.

[left hare]

No i wanted to know if it cced crushers

Cos my perks are garbage

[bleak tulip]

was considered best before the patch if you can believe it

[left hare]

and i wanna try it

[vivid saffron]

It does. Kinda. It kills them lol

[vivid saffron]

Lol. Yeah.

[left hare]

i havent grinded and sacrificed staves yet

[vivid saffron]

Guess what class I am?

I am a Better-than 🙂

[ionic needle]

Trauma with brittleness is good, no?

[vivid saffron]

VERY

[cyan echo]

did they change Trauma somehow since launch?

[bleak tulip]

yeah

lower peril cost

[shadow quail]

Everything changed since launch

[cyan echo]

Aah interesting, might be worth to try now then

[ionic needle]

Kind of wish I farmed before the patch, so many things I want to try out

[vivid saffron]

Vet with Lucius Mk 3 can do about as well as Voidstrike. I don’t mind. I don’t mind Psyker being OP

[bold cliff]

so what'st he best/favorite ability? brain pop, knives, lightning?

[cyan echo]

people were always complaining about Psyker being weak

[vivid saffron]

Psyker SHOULD be strongest class. Period. Speaking as a Vet main

[vivid saffron]

Knives

[shadow quail]

Knives

[vivid saffron]

With Empowered Paionics

[cyan echo]

I like Smite a lot so far, though its probably not the best

[bleak tulip]

best how, "meta"? Void and Assail are both pretty overtuned rn

[shadow quail]

smite is only good because of the bug, imo

[vivid saffron]

Smite is decent because you can go other trees with it

[bold cliff]

nice! ok that was my next question.

knives with empowerd psionic better than the stacks that increase damage?

[vivid saffron]

Vet mid tree is goated. Especially bottom third

[bleak tulip]

both are good tbh

cant really go wrong tbh

[dense ivy]

It's 100% going to get nerfed

[vivid saffron]

Yeah. One requires you to do to kill Enemies that are X or Y. Other requires you to just kill. You tell me which is easier, to proc. It’s the latter, right?

[dense ivy]

I've done runs on Auric where I end with 10 melee kills

[cyan echo]

isnt void the same as it always was?

[bleak tulip]

stack capstone is likely better in some way but its probably too early to tell

[shadow quail]

no

[bleak tulip]

nope, its like +70% damage

[dense ivy]

No it does SIGNIFICANTLY more damage

[cyan echo]

oh, didnt feel much different when i tried it yesterday

[vivid saffron]

Oooh no . It requires half or third the shots to kill a Crusher

[cyan echo]

i always thought it nuked things hard

[dense ivy]

It's not just the base damage, but its armor modifiers

2 shots crushers with + damage

[shadow quail]

It never 2 shot crushers before

[bleak tulip]

it actually does insane single target damage, has unlimited (?) cleave for real this time

[cyan echo]

Well that's good innit

[dense ivy]

If it kills it doesn't stop

[cyan echo]

better than a wet fart

[dense ivy]

Even on armor

[bleak tulip]

well I think so c:

[vivid saffron]

What Abilitu do you use? Shield, Scrier etc?

[teal needle]

One shots with scrier's

[dense ivy]

You could already topscore on damage with void before

[astral oracle]

i'ma try out assail now

[dense ivy]

But its ability to deal with mutants crushers and maulers was kinda shit

[cyan echo]

This new ranged-shield is nice as well, worried things might be too easy now

[vivid saffron]

It doesn’t need +Carapace for 2-shot

[bleak tulip]

fucked with shield, its kinda fun but probably not the best, tried out shout again after

[dense ivy]

Now it just murders those things as well as the horde

[dense ivy]

Yeah no it doesn't need any + damage versus to hit breakpoints anymore

[bleak tulip]

shield is cool because you can finally offer some big team utility

[dense ivy]

It's GOING to get nerfed

[vivid saffron]

It doesn’t need +Carapace to 2-shot

[dense ivy]

It's so insanely strong

[shadow quail]

Lol the shield bug is funny had like 12 shields earlier

[vivid saffron]

Agreed

[dense ivy]

Shield is nice but the targeting is wonk on stairs

[lofty temple]

I still need to try the shield

[vivid saffron]

The only utility you should offer your team is to kill for the Emperor

[lofty temple]

What's it like?

[bleak tulip]

idk if shield drops are annoying for the shooty people since its not perfectly color neutral and transparent but yknow

nobody complained yet

and getting 10%toughness per second is very nice

[dense ivy]

The stun is very situational and the double shield perk just feels useless

You're using it too often to build up stacks

[vivid saffron]

I was gonna. I was actually gonna say exactly that

[bleak tulip]

yeah the small shield feels a little anemic I only tried the bubble

[cyan echo]

feels like the shield is especially useful on higher difficulties where enemy Ranged are the biggest danger

[bleak tulip]

yeah I figured, with people complaining about any and all effects up in their face before I am not surprised its distracting

[dense ivy]

The bubble shield is much stronger for its better coverage yeah

[vivid saffron]

I get confused whenever that thing comes on screen. One moment I am shooting like a maniac, and then, wuh??? Blue screen? It legit confused me

[dense ivy]

The stun on the shield is very whatever

basically not noticable

[bleak tulip]

when its bright its probably not too bad but in darkness it might fuck with your visual

[shadow quail]

i dropped one on nurgle and it blocked all his vomit from the inside

[dense ivy]

Would def rather have bubble

[bleak tulip]

yeah

it does that

[vivid saffron]

Is that MC? Your DP?

[dense ivy]

The second bubble perk of toughness regen and then 50 fucking % DR after it expires is cracked

[bleak tulip]

huh?

[vivid saffron]

Profile picture. Master Chief? It’s a Spartan fosho

[bleak tulip]

nah its not

[vivid saffron]

Ffs. Autocorrect…

[bleak tulip]

yeah the heal is what pushed me over the edge on trying it

[shadow quail]

doesnt look like halo

more like an anime

[vivid saffron]

A sParTan fishy????

Like wtf

[dense ivy]

The expiration requirement is kinda bad though

[vivid saffron]

You stupid effing algorithm

[dense ivy]

Because nobody stays in one spot for 20 seconds unless you're just completely pinned

[bleak tulip]

I wanna say the shield has a health bar too

[dense ivy]

Or it's a defense mission

I think it only has a healthbar vs speicals if you take that talent tree

[bleak tulip]

on damnation it does go away when you drop it in front of a solid amount of gunners and reapers

[dense ivy]

The stun one on the left

I've yet to see it disappear otherwise

[bleak tulip]

hmm

[dense ivy]

But I've not come across any like

[bleak tulip]

it does hold for a while but I feel like its gone away before the cd

[dense ivy]

Big huge hordes of shooters that lasted

[azure veldt]

Assail - anyone else just find it silly easy to spam psyker whistle arrows at the enemy in a fore and forget kinda way?

[shadow quail]

yeah

its a main weapon

[azure veldt]

Fire* and forget

[dense ivy]

Yes but also it's funne

[vivid saffron]

Vet legit has a goated mid-tree. I got so much rending on my Devil’s Claw, it was amazing

[bleak tulip]

fun fact, if you hover over enemies it follows your crosshair for the 3 jumps ish

its not entirely fire and forget

[azure veldt]

This is useful info thank you

[bleak tulip]

you can also send em out and switch back to staff and keep steering em

[azure veldt]

Jesus.

[honest frigate]

Yeah exactly

[azure veldt]

Lol all my games last night felt like all classes were now OP.

How hard we gonna get nerfed or how much will enemies be buffed?

[honest frigate]

I found out about this thanks to one of the early access vids

[honest frigate]

If anything i feel that all difficulties are more accessible now, which is a good thing

[hybrid solstice]

what should i change on this

[bleak tulip]

heard on the gravevine its likely in the works

[honest frigate]

Heresy can still be difficult if you got ass teammate and/or the AI director decides to drown you in elites and specialists

[azure veldt]

I'd change mutant resistance but I am no expert.

[azure veldt]

I haven't gone past malice yet. I think I'll look for a low-int heresy match tonight to dip my staff in

[hybrid solstice]

yeah i think i'll i''ll change it to gunners

[honest frigate]

Heresy is fine usually, even on normal int. Ive played it a bit before the rework but heresy seems to be my go-to now, unless i decide to help noobs and join sedition on quickplay

The classes rework really helped a ton. And there was a lot of stat tweaks all over too

Which probably had some effect

[bleak tulip]

prob mutant resist, toughness regen isnt great either but mutant resist is borderline pointless

just dodge em

[honest frigate]

If you still want to make your life hell, theres damnation and auric maelstrom missions

[bleak tulip]

get + toughness or something

[honest frigate]

[ornate hamlet]

gunners are usually what kills you so eh

[hybrid solstice]

personally i like toughness regen

[lofty temple]

people still play heresy??

[bleak tulip]

since toughness gets so many buffs from the tree now

[honest frigate]

I get rid of them easily, snipers remain the most deadly to me

[bleak tulip]

im sure people also still play the first two difficulties

not everyone is as sweaty as people who spend time talking in here

[honest frigate]

True

[gilded radish]

my game crashes whenever i try to play the throwing shards

[honest frigate]

Im not even sweaty tbh, but i DID notice that heresy is significantly more stress-free now

i may try it with high intensity sometime

[bleak tulip]

yeah every class seems to be much stronger now

[cyan echo]

Take pride in being sweaty

[hybrid solstice]

yeah i'll just stick with the classic gunner + sniper res

[honest frigate]

I have a mere 150 hours in the game

[bleak tulip]

basically everyone has had their moment of "whoa"

ogryn players stanning ogrynheimer, vets giggling to themselves over krag grenades

[azure veldt]

Good lord Emperor no. I've got 2 kids. Work a mentally taxing deskjob 50 hours a week.... I need to be a filthy casual that is somewhat challenged but no punished.

[bleak tulip]

havent heard from my zealot buddy but im sure theyre excited about the area denial grenade

[azure veldt]

I ain't got time or energy to try hard.

If I get to Auric it will be because I've accrued enough skill and experience that it fits that criteria

[bleak tulip]

and the buff zealot seems very nice

[honest frigate]

What remains dangerous about those high difficulty missions is the fact that everything can go super smoothly up until the end... Then the game spawns 5 elites and 10 specialist in a enclosed space and youre f u c k e d

[ionic needle]

I had a game like that yesterday

[honest frigate]

Happened to me yesterday, we were literally on the hall that lead to a exfil elevator and we all got downed right there

[ionic needle]

Damnation, I fucked up right at the end and blew up thanks to running assail + scrier

[cyan echo]

I actually find its sort of a nice zen-trance thing to do Damnation, your mind just empties

[ionic needle]

My teammates went for saving me instead of just completing the mission

We all died

[bleak tulip]

man I blew up so many more times, that muscle memory of using my last cast really has been fucking me

[honest frigate]

Reason why venting shriek is still a viable ability:

[bleak tulip]

playing basically since release with the one extra cast

[ionic needle]

Yeah, I mained illisi + shredder before the patch and haven't blown up for AGES

Wait, they removed the extra cast at <=97%?

[bleak tulip]

I mean its still viable because it gets 6 soublaze stacks every time no upkeep

[honest frigate]

Venting shriek with soulblaze stacks goes hard

Yes

[cyan echo]

oh no

[bleak tulip]

no, I mean when youre above, but have shout to get out of it

[honest frigate]

They did definitely do something with peril. Im not sure what it is

[ionic needle]

Aaah right

[bleak tulip]

I got so used to basically overcasting and shouting I fucked myself a few times yesterday

[ionic needle]

Scrier is pretty neat because you get that extra cast when it's active

You just have to make sure to not press it further

[azure veldt]

They gave us 2 combat abilities that don't quell peril and I've consequently blown up more times than I'm willing to admit.

[ionic needle]

Both the quell speed and quell while running talents are gold, which is weird because before I'd never even consider any of them haha

[left hare]

I kept pressing f to try and dump my peril

then a dome appears

massive L

[azure veldt]

Same. Sad but hilarious for my psyker 😂

[honest frigate]

I seem to stick with the venting shriek ability anyway. I dont find the shields all that useful, and scrier ability is just for gun psykers mainly, not to mention its pretty boring

[primal radish]

i just played a hi shock game without using my melee or ranged wep

[honest frigate]

Assail?

[ionic needle]

The dome is incredible imo

[primal radish]

0 melee kills. ok i did accidentally use my melee for 1 swing

[ionic needle]

Ranged fire is what gets me down like 9/10 times

[primal radish]

and i got top total score on scoreboard lmfao

the other psyker had 0 melee kills too wtf i just noticed, he was using surge too tho

[ionic needle]

That other psyker SLAUGHTERED elites though, haha

31 melee, 55 ranged

[primal radish]

yea he had surge staff

i literally never used my melee or ranged wep

except an accidental melee swing

i just used assail only lmao

[ionic needle]

Assail is amazing

Kind of wish it had a tad more charges though, I don't like running out of evil mind crystals mid horde

[primal radish]

shits broken lmao thanks fatshark

[summer prairie]

Also both shots now crit with the surge blessing

[echo cosmos]

Old vet mains: "Vet is ruined!!!"

Me, who actually really likes new vet: "Vet is actually interesting!!!"

[primal radish]

wrong board?

[echo cosmos]

No I just didn't want vet mains to see that I am disagreeing with them

[ornate hamlet]

I see it

I see all.

[outer owl]

do run and gun work?

I dont know why but it just doesn't allow me to sprint while using secondary attack

[true ledge]

Hey. I must ask? I jsut start playing for the first time. And are there like any staffs in thr game? Like a traditional magic? I am a big mage fan? I know nothing about the game? Any help would be kind.

[outer owl]

See?

[vast sonnet]

It's literally 3 messages above you. There's a staff right there. There are multiple, yes. Lightning, fire, aoe explosion, explody ball shooter, etc

[outer owl]

this

[ionic needle]

Yes there are, you get them later as you level up

[outer owl]

do run and gun work?

[true ledge]

Yes I notice that, I kinda didn’t know any to change my message, sorry

[true ledge]

I’ll make sure to keep my eyes out for those,

[fast swan]

good?

[glad sandal]

normally yes

[vast sonnet]

It's aight. Yes, as you level up you'll start unlocking new weapons, both melee and ranged. Psyker has staves too as ranged weapons

[fast swan]

which stat is le dump stat?

[glad sandal]

yes but hope for good blessings and modifiers otherwise it's gonna be less strong than anticipated

[fast swan]

what blessings do i need?

got riposte III which looks like a boatload of mid

[glad sandal]

precognition ?

I don't play regular swords, I find the force sword way better at everyting

I mean the deimos is probably one of the best weak point weapon in the game

rending might be good on the duelling sword I believe

[fast swan]

ty

also is scriers gace goated with gunpsyker or jsut a bit mid?

[glad sandal]

rending + shred I believe are better blessings

[echo cosmos]

The dueling swords are insane now

[glad sandal]

I still think they're outshined by the force swords

[echo cosmos]

Force swords have more power, but the dueling sword 4 has an insane attack speed

[ornate hamlet]

I prefered the Ilius ws that the name? prepatch, haven't played psyker yet.

Didn't like deimos animations

[honest frigate]

Illisi

[echo cosmos]

Illisi has the slash when charged

Deimos does the succ when charged

[ornate hamlet]

Also I think the Deimos looks stupid

[honest frigate]

And then theres the third force sword which is kinda like deimos but worse

[ornate hamlet]

barbed stabbing sword

[honest frigate]

[ornate hamlet]

fkn genius made that one

[honest frigate]

I think it looks funny

[ornate hamlet]

Imagine some poor psyker stabbing a mutant and then just gets dragged along

[echo cosmos]

Barbs means it tears more

And being dragged along isn't an issue if you properly maintain the Omnissiahs gifts

[ionic needle]

It's a mind laser sword, just pull it out using your mind

[idle bay]

Since Void staff is a thing now - look what i dug out in my Inventory

[honest frigate]

Wdym "is a thing" it was there before

💀

[idle bay]

It's more thing then it was 🙂

[ancient latch]

[ionic needle]

Before thing now more thing

[cyan echo]

Thingier

[ionic needle]

It made us Ogryn

[forest meadow]

Give it a week and it's one foot back in the grave for the Psyker

[spice veldt]

duellies were buffed

[eager gorge]

Dueling swords (with rending) are dope rn

[ionic needle]

Psyker was always really good though, you just had to play a very specific build (Shredder)

[eager gorge]

I'm just trying to find out what to run on my shredder pistol

[glad sandal]

I'm gonna slash you duelling swords lovers in half with the power of my mind

[spice veldt]

mk4 duelly heavies

[glad sandal]

never said the duelling sword sucks ass, I just say I still think FS are better even with the obvious buff

[spice veldt]

deimos h2

[spice veldt]

and i never said that you said that

I'm saying that the mk4 is better than the deimos

[bleak tulip]

yeah but force sword looks cooler

[honest frigate]

blows up rations with mind

[ionic needle]

I'd probably go with BB, CDR Aura, Scrier, Warp Charges

[ornate hamlet]

not the deimos

[glad sandal]

[honest frigate]

https://tenor.com/view/explosion-green-screen-crash-gif-24396972

[glad sandal]

Based and emperor pilled

[ionic needle]

Or maybe Elite aura is better

[eager gorge]

Oh I more meant what blessings to aim for.

I've not used the machine pistol tbqh.

Picked up Psyker again after the buffs.

Was a Vet player, lol

[idle bay]

Despite dueling 4 being cool AF - i'm still sticking to Illsi

[honest frigate]

It is quite good

[ornate hamlet]

based

[glad sandal]

[honest frigate]

Im considering usingnit as a backup on my assail psyker

[bleak tulip]

I dont know how I feel about deimos charge being more like illisi charge now too

I almost miss the shitty "get stuck" thing

[glad sandal]

every weapon is a back-up when you have assail for real

[spice veldt]

stockholm syndrome 😔

[ionic needle]

Ah, I think Pinning Fire + Cavalcade/Blaze away with Carapace/Flak should work fine still

[bleak tulip]

at least it did a fuckton of damage

[idle bay]

Also i dont have good Dueling 4......

[glad sandal]

I spent an entire game just slinging arrows left and right without ever pulling my staff

[bleak tulip]

even if it felt like shit

[idle bay]

karking Hadron....

[ornate hamlet]

phrasing

[honest frigate]

True but the machine pistol is great at dealing with most things and is such a dps beast so its a safe bet @glad sandal

[azure veldt]

Is this a mod?

[glad sandal]

by the emperor your mind is corrupted by slaanesh

[eager gorge]

It is

[glad sandal]

yeah but mind powers

[azure veldt]

Gah. I've never modded a game before - seems like now is the time to learn

[glad sandal]

checkmate atheist

[eager gorge]

wait psykers can get a fucking cape

well

[bleak tulip]

I cant believe I will have to figure out how the fuck mods work again today

[eager gorge]

I know what im doing

[ionic needle]

Love the cape!

[honest frigate]

Unfortunately, even my funny immaterium glass shards run out sometimes. :(

[eager gorge]

I know my goal for tomorrow, lmao

[ionic needle]

Just redownload them, put them in the mods folder, run the .bat-script

[glad sandal]

have you considered the following : M i n d P o w e r s

[honest frigate]

RAHHHHH
