Instead of forcing you to channel it

sour bison
#

Also being zealot suck because ppl who main zealot are just special

sour bison
#

Yes mommy?

still hearth
#

Lmao

summer prairie
#

change the difficulty to uprising and you can probably roughly get an idea how good smite will be in terms of damage

idle bay
#

Next thing he will ask is to step on him...

still hearth
#

...

#

$5

#

No less

#

I'm so used to Zealot chat shouting how they find tall women hot by now that its whatever

#

But yeah uh Smite

#

I don't like it

spice veldt
#

could be a fun idea

still hearth
#

I like my idea because its mine

Stationary Ball Lightning that zapps all nearby enemies making them jiggle

Is brain rupture better monstrosity damage with max warp charges than void staff spam?

still hearth
#

No

naive imp
#

Man…

idle bay
potent echo
#

unless kinetic

still hearth
#

Basically anything is better than BR on bosses

naive imp
#

Rupture needs some boofs

#

Lol

potent echo
#

its getting some next patch

near wyvern
#

meh, I tried the scrier's gaze empowered assail build with battle meditation included, it's just not smooth at all

potent echo
#

extra 25% to unyielding

still hearth
#

It's a 3s base charge or something for like 1.4k damage?

#

Leaving the feet behind.

#

Lets talk about brain power

spice veldt
#

:pensive:

still hearth
#

I mean the biggest uspide is that its reliable

#

But yeah 3.1s

#

Wtf

#

Didn't it used to be 2 seconds for LMB??

#

Like why did BR get nerfed

spice veldt
#

still 2 seconds for the LMB during the charging process

#

just that there's 1 second of downtime after each cast

still hearth
#

Ahh

near wyvern
#

just so you know

#

it didn't used to do that

#

the effect stength they give to cast speed is not as big as they claim but they do stack and also make the after cast animation go faster

spice veldt
#

me spamming ults with Will of the Emperorer and still hitting a cap previously 😔

rapid frigate
#

Just making sure, Soulblaze cannot crit, right?

spice veldt
#

DoTs can't crit yeah

still hearth
rapid frigate
#

OH? That is interesting. Thanks for the info.

still hearth
#

It's why Warp Nexus is pretty good on it

#

And also because it has no other blessings

thorn cedar
#

It's really not but your other options are also bad.

#

Yeah lmao

#

At least we have two nodes that feed off crits now

still hearth
#

Three

#

Dodge on Crit, Toughness on Crit and Warp Damage on crit

thorn cedar
#

Oh, I don't care for the dodge one tbh

still hearth
#

You can reliably just flame down whatever and ignore enemies shooting you

idle bay
#

So BB will be much more powerful.... but still be a simple snipe-single-target option?

still hearth
#

BB will still need love imo

naive imp
#

Best perks for void staff gameplay?

thorn cedar
#

I'll just take the move speed and dodge myself

still hearth
#

I mean you can ususally do that and Purgatus also suppresses a ton

#

So most enemies will just not shoot back

still hearth
#

Yes

#

All weapons can crit

idle bay
still hearth
#

Some just do very little when they crit

still hearth
#

I think it's like a 7m radius

#

Also Purgatus flames are way wider than what they look like

#

Like the cone spreads out super wide

#

But the start is obviously small

#

So ideally you stand far from big groups

fringe warren
idle bay
#

Speaking of Purgatus. Look at this base. Stats are nearly ideal. Just replase 1 blessing and add 5% ranged crit (provided that it works) and its good to go

still hearth
#

So feel bad

#

Idk what difference 62-80 is though

idle bay
still hearth
#

They like

#

Tripled the direct damage

plucky flax
#

I joined at mid event. Seems balance.

still hearth
#

Go try it out in Psykarnum

#

You will kill poxwalkers with just the direct flame

#

It's so nasty

idle bay
#

This base then

#

71% burn

Should be good though

Presumably they don't do ... anything

having to kill 3 elites instead of 2 elites 😔

#

truly a trajedy

thorn cedar
#

Their favourite youtuber hasn't said it's that one secret OP trick to melting all enemies with a red circled surprised soyjack face yet

#

Therefore how could they ever find out

#

I think we knew Perilous was insane when it no longer asked for specific triggers lol

#

Just kill an elite and melt shit

#

It's still an autopick probably forever

spice veldt
#

wrack & ruin at least forced you to have to use BB

#

perilous is just free damage and you can use whatever weapon

thorn cedar
#

And it had to die on the BB

spice veldt
#

0 changes to your playstyle required

thorn cedar
#

Yeah it's crazy lmao

spice veldt
#

warck & ruin was per-hit of BB tbf

#

it was just compounded by the fact that it was also competing with warp unleashed

idle bay
#

Near perfection 🙂

thorn cedar
#

Yes that was the biggie

Now lte me brick it

whats a gun for gun psyker that doesnt suck ass

#

vraks 3?

idle bay
#

Revolver also great

#

And laspistol

naive imp
#

Holy shit

#

So veteran has a talent that is 2.5% on ally kill…psyker has a 4% chance on ally kill for warp charges.

Which is more reliable for building warp charges?

#

The soul burn kills or ally kills?….

bold flint
#

well if youre using purgy you should be getting most of the horde kills

idle bay
bold flint
#

so if youre using purgy you basically have a 2.5x better chance

idle bay
#

On danmation or heresy it means - you always have charges

#

without purgatus

ebon jolt
#

Or just kill specialists and elites for charges and the occasional free one helps.

bold flint

currently its really funny to burn a horde and then camp your buff icons for bubble spam

Ya know, if revolver didn't waste 70% of scrier time with that goddawful reload, I might actually like it

Can we make Perils explosion deal the same damage as Ogryn frag? That'd be neat I think

#

Yeah but you don't need to quell that much

#

No?

5% vs 36.99%

still hearth
#

You only quell enough to do one more charge

#

And then quell again

fresh reef
spare light
#

Oh you mean edge peril

still hearth
#

Yeah and it makes no difference

#

Because quell speed

#

Doesn't speed up the animation

(or you can just take it anyway and be a no keystone Chad)

It speeds up the numbers which don't matter

spare light
steel flame
#

Just m1 quell cancel machine gun on surge and kill all the things

still hearth
#

Alright lemme go on and buy a bad surge staff

#

But

fresh reef
still hearth
#

The reload speed

#

On a low quell speed

#

Is the same

#

As a higher quell

#

If you do it correctly

fresh reef
#

High quell speed is really nice for Quietude though

still hearth
#

Yes

#

But you don't wanna full reload

#

That's literally the point

steel flame
#

Quell speed stat is negligible dumpstat, even before we had quell speed perks

fresh reef
#

I think it's more a preference than not

still hearth
#

I mean

#

Most of the good things

spare light
#

QoL stat isn't it?

still hearth
#

Are based on being high peril

#

So shrug

#

Whatever

thin finch
fresh reef
#

Their point is you can just edge and maintain your buffs from Warp Rider and such

still hearth
#

Okay so doing more damage = bad now

#

Good to know

spare light
fresh reef
#

Why

still hearth
fresh reef
#

Do

#

You type

#

Like this

torpid void
#

what stats should i have on my melee and staff?

still hearth
#

Going from 62% quell to 74% gives me 2% more peril back per tick

#

Damn

#

Crazy

#

And doesn't affect the ticks to edge out shocks

spare light
#

Basically the choice is, 1 staff with shitty perks but good quell speed, and 1 with good quell speed but can only change 1 perk

steel flame
fresh reef
potent echo
#

also surge damage is quite random, breakpoints are more soft than real

fresh reef
#

If the quell speed is that much of an issue then you take increased quell talent

#

Simple as

still hearth
#

Hmm. Yeah no reason to be high peril tbh

#

Just be at 0 peril

quell speed is dump stat why is this even being talked about lol

oh don't worry, I'm taking your advice into consideration. I'm aware that peril edging is a thing, but I might be weird or old, but I dislike the 'critical peril' sound effect A LOT

#

Go on

Keep being obtuse

#

I'm sure people will like it

thin finch
#

We don't dump on surge we dump on quell speed because you want to stay at high peril, so you will just quell one tick and surge again

why dont we talk about smite

and if its actually good

# idle bay I choose any team kill over soulfire kill

That’s what I was thinking. Veteran has a talent that has a 2.5% chance to proc and it happens a LOT.

So would assume it works the same way. And with staff I’m thinking you want to hold your charges as long as possible for maximum damage.

spare light
#

I was thinking of a smite/surge build , get my palpatine on you know

potent echo
#

elite within horde, when you release the elite remains standing, while the horde is on the floor, means you can a clear shot with your gun, feels nice on gunker

smite is hard to make work with staves because it eats alot of peril

#

its fine

fresh reef

#

its fine but feels better on gun

fresh reef
#

DS is single target, Illisi deletes trash mobs (and anything else when it's charged, really)

spare light
#

my mind is just thinking 'why would I bring smite when I can bring a voidstorm and nuke a horde , death is the best CC after all'

its for when you dont want to bring the crutchstrike and want to play something else KEKW_ogryn

then you bring an actual good staff like trauma and purg ogryn_pathetic

Worst one was my 2nd run , or well attempt, and some guy bitched about it, pulled demon and left

worn cypress
#

theres a bunch of people who switched to psyker just for assail/VS and play kinda stupidly with them

#

so it might be seen as a red flag by some

thin finch
#

There is some assail hate gathering in the game currently.
Either because it's too strong or because the average psyker that levelled up with it does not know that they have other option

spare light
#

I'll be honest, I leveled using Assail cause everything else I had was mediocre at the time, but now I don't even run it in any of my builds

I've been abusing the 2 shield charges to cut bb time in half, then after psionics procs from the elite kill, the charge time gets super fast and it's easy to chain kill. The rending trauma melts armor and 16 stacks of brittle on a boss followed by the rending Mk4 saber melts bosses

also, does purg out perform void on monstrosity?

steep storm
#

feels like console update lowered horde sizes to acccomodate their shitty hardware, so purg got shafted by that

thin finch
languid tusk
#

if he spams it every horde I need to reboot my console after 5 minutes

steep storm
#

yeah, it sucks. i know the game needs the console players money to keep doing well and continue development but it might be best off as a niche game that only PC can play unless they work out better optimizations than "reduce horde and special size" which feels like shit

olive ember
#

The staff just needs like double the damage

olive ember
#

Warp fire wouldn’t even be good, it only hits 2 targets at a time and it will kill trash

thin finch

#

Surge on Surge Staff thonk

olive ember
#

Lmao just run smite with AB

#

There is a dot build like that using smite surge staff and AB

thin finch
spare light
#

I do think it's nice there's dedicated groups to specific weapons

kind jay
#

surge staff sucks guys it cant even do 1mil like void

summer prairie
#

yeah I'm sure you killed 714 lesser enemies with surge

kind jay
#

i did

olive ember
#

The build is basically surge staff elites, which procs perilous and wildfire, then AB, And then smite horde and watch stuff burn

kind jay
#

its right there

#

?

summer prairie
#

what else did you run

#

venting shriek?

kind jay
#

bb and shield

olive ember
summer prairie
#

that's good then

#

the team must have been afk though

kind jay
#

most teams are afk these days

#

or feels that way

fresh reef
#

I think I've been really undervaluing the M1 bolt. Legitimately considering trying to roll Surge on a Trauma just to make it better

olive ember
#

Run surge staff or voidstrike then

#

They all have the same lmb bolt more or less except surge staff has crit and voidstrike benefits from surge blessing

steep storm
# kind jay or feels that way

yep have to run an all rounder build every single run if you're solo queueing, the quality of players dropped off a cliff so fast

summer prairie
#

auric maelstorm players are mostly good enough over here

lethal folio
#

Surge/nexus trauma is legitimately good.

fresh reef
summer prairie
#

dropping blazing spirit just for the lmb doesn't seem worth it

lethal folio
#

Unfortunately surge staff doesn't get surge blessing.

plucky flax
fresh reef
#

I just need to get over the fact that my brain can't process how to use new surge

plucky flax
#

I'd love it if FS listen to this sort of feedback.

fresh reef
#

Mainly just with mixed hordes

summer prairie
#

do you sit on 6 charges when you play though

spare light
olive ember
#

But sure

plucky flax
#

But how fast do you kill it?

lethal folio
#

It's slow compared to other things.

plucky flax
#

Okay sure.

steep storm
plucky flax
#

Xd

steep storm
#

what setting is the gold number next to true level is that prestige or something

fresh reef
#

Except it doesn't because Surge blessed Void exists

fresh reef
plucky flax
#

Voidstrike is better against ogryns but purely specials kill time no staff can touch surge.

summer prairie
#

maybe when there's a single target

#

and both are already in range

steep storm
olive ember
#

You know what

summer prairie
#

but against elite clusters, no

olive ember
#

Sure

steep storm
#

Idk dude, Void is a little wildly broken right now, its probably more busted than Assail if you have hands

fresh reef
plucky flax
lime robin
pliant tendon
#

do staff attacks count as warp attacks?

fresh reef
still hearth
#

Yes

#

Except special attack bonks

fresh reef

what's a special attack bonk

summer prairie
#

well if we are precharging, nothing beats BB vs special am i right

olive ember
#

Don’t worry tho they are buffing staff bonk next patch

#

It’s gonna be SUPER META

summer prairie
#

yes but vs most specials that's just overkill, BB kills as soon as you click

still hearth
#

Unironically on like Sedition the new staff attacks might actually work

fresh reef
plucky flax
# fresh reef Flurry moment

Yeah did you actually check that surge staff has faster charge time now? With flurry it's faster than voidstrike with flurry.

acoustic spade
#

so considering how "easy" peril management has been before this

still hearth
#

It does more dps than combat axes

acoustic spade
#

I switched to Telekine shield with Assail and Gun and today was the first time I hit 100% Peril without exploding with that loadout

fresh reef
still hearth
#

Fair

acoustic spade
#

Way too used to vent sneeze

still hearth
#

I mean light spam knife still does more damage to bodies than staff swings

fresh reef
#

I guess a more apt comparison would be a Mk2 DS but you exclusively use Light 1 and nothing else

still hearth
fresh reef
#

The real question is does staff bonk technically count as a ranged attack through some magical FatShark jank?

#

True Aim staff bonk meta perhaps?

acoustic spade
#

so might get buffed by ogryns aura KEKW_ogryn

plucky flax
fresh reef
#

I'll test both but this sounds really funny

olive ember
plucky flax
#

Nah darcy was genuinely trolling. Puri just have shit takes.

The staff attacks should be unique to each weapon

naive imp
#

Fair

still hearth
naive imp
#

Would be cool if they super charged the charge

#

Like hammers

#

But obviously balanced. Haha

languid tusk
#

staff attack should be imbue the warp into the staff and use it like a warp powered thunder hammer

#

or warp powered power maul

acoustic spade
#

with Purgatus having Fire-based extra damage

#

and Trauma staff just inflicting mental damage

dusk rose
still hearth
#

Or just make all staffs

#

Empowered punches

languid tusk
#

soulblaze counts as warp attack, so purgatus crit build is actually viable and stronk

still hearth
#

Purgatus makes the target go to max stacks soublaze instantly
Surge stuns it for 5s
Trauma makes an explosion
Voidstrike

languid tusk
#

voidstrike tanks your fps by triggering a chain reaction

still hearth
#

Direct damage on purgatus is also like 200 per second

pliant tendon
#

all of you guys talking about staves and whatnot

#

meanwhile my psyker is using a revolver

worn wedge
#

so with assail, am I supposed to aim it or just fire and forget?

languid tusk
#

actually nevermind there is some things you should keep in mind while assailing all over the place

#

dont assail into a crusher

languid tusk
#

dont assail if you are at 99 peril

languid tusk
#

the number of psykers that blow themselves up by assailing too much

#

you'd be surprised

olive ember
#

I’m just saying that the sienna necromancer scythe has a special which does AOE stagger

#

So why doesn’t the psyker staves ffs

dusk rose
#

Wait we can have A SCYTHE?

#

Sienna necromancer

dusk rose
#

ah

fresh reef
#

@olive ember I am displeased to annouonce that Surge blessing does not exist on Surge

fresh reef
#

I could've sworn it was on the staff

olive ember
#

Nope

#

Surge is only on trauma and void

#

Same thing with blazing spirit

fresh reef
#

I have a very vivid memory of ripping Surge off a Surge and putting it on a Void a couple months back

#

only to experience disappointment for other obvious reasons

#

memory be like that sometimes I suppose

summer prairie
#

I wonder if purg is really getting rending soon (weapon_trait_bespoke_forcestaff_p2_burned_targets_receive_rending_debuff)

#

seems kind of ridiculous, depending on how it stacks

ebon monolith
#

Any good Psyker builds that DON'T use Assail?

olive ember
#

Also works with blazing trauma

ebon monolith
#

I'm fine with that

#

I enjoy burning things

worn wedge
ebon monolith
#

Which Staff does this use again?

olive ember
#

Purge or blazing nexus trauma

#

Should work with both

ebon monolith
#

Nice

#

Thank you

plucky flax
olive ember
#

Oh do note it you don’t use toughness curios like me that build will give you 90 toughness default

plucky flax
#

OP in the way that it buffs assail even further Xd

acoustic spade
#

Why does the Shield take so long to place

#

I tap F on the ground and it doesnt

plucky flax
#

They are making it more responsive next patch.

acoustic spade
#

I want it to come out but no it has like a 3 second cast time during which you have to hold F

dusk rose
plucky flax
#

Always did.

digital narwhal
#

4% chance for Warp Charge on any kill should be 6%, and 10% chance for Warp Charge on Soulblaze kill sould be 12.5%

Don't @ me

orchid shadow
digital narwhal

It'd be incredibly strong if it did

naive imp
#

I could see revolver assail being better than void for sure.

#

Especially since it would give you a back and forth and while using the revolver you would self quell

still hearth
#

Well Void is free

#

And ammo is sometimes scarce

#

But Assail does most of the lifting anyway so

#

Yeah

wispy pike
#

I do love not needing ammo and grenades.

naive imp
#

You only use void (or I do) like 5% of the mission. Maybe 10%

dusk rose
#

wait blessings are perma that u earn and not one time use?

naive imp
#

Lol this is what is funny to me

digital narwhal

Earn them and they're permanently available for the weapon family that you pulled it from

whats better to use last change on
t4 flurry OR Perkk?

naive imp

#

i actually dont kkknow what to do now

still hearth
#

The shots do decent damage but the reload times and ammo count is rough

t4 flurry can be nice but unyelding enemies dmg is also huge

What is psyker best option for bossing?

Nah

Sometimes Chainsword and Assail

I really hope my Suppression Immunity suggestion for Scrier's Gaze goes through.

plucky flax

Only bonbon is hard to melee. Use revolver and hit weakspot at back for bonbon.

I could see chainsword being good

#

Didn’t think about that

digital narwhal

Chainsword lowkey cracked

Yo….I’m using the 12 bleed stacks on special

I prefer Rampage + Savage Sweep tbh

I just started using the scrier version of assail and it’s really dumb.

#

Makes your entire kit stupid

spare light
#

I think I've asked this 3 times before, but I keep forgetting, what kind perks should I go for on purg? kekw

naive imp
#

@digital narwhal But seriously…doesn’t bleed stack to 40? So like 3 specials worth of damage AND 36 bleed stacks? Is that not good if I’m using it solely for bossing mostly?

rocky osprey
naive imp
#

Hmmm. Chainsword with a voidstaff build sounds good then as well. The bleeds and soulblaze to rot bosses

still hearth
#

Bleed and Soulblaze DPS isn't that high even on bosses

#

Especially if you can't max stack it

#

Soulblaze is like 300 DPS with Purgatus max stacks I think

#

Which Voidstrike can't get

fierce crest
spare light
#

So y'all recommend Soulblaze with purg?

fierce crest
#

yeah

#

its still good

#

maybe not after the patch

#

but its just such a good talent

spare light
#

But doesn't that procc only on elite/Special kill?

fierce crest
#

yeah

#

which youll be doing

#

if you do anything but use the purg 100% of the time

its good

Been running a Gaze Knife+Recon VId build in Damnation been really fun

Knife with Gaze is fucking gas

high finesse+Bleeds on crits just pumps

will help with stuff like rager swarms

purg is your horde clear

#

bb for long range elite/special kills

#

melee for up close and cleanup

spare light
#

Probably MK4 then

fierce crest
#

my purg build also uses BB plus a good single target weapon

#

yeah DS, Axe, Deimos, whatever you like

Rupture needs a big buff

The no weakspot modifier seems silly because it’s exploding a weakspot.

Migh the MK5 duelling sword become a thing after the changes? I saw that they buff its basic LMBs much more than the other two Mks. Maybe it can be a good leftclick weapon?

I so miss the mobility of the MK5, but the damage is so bad. 😦

viral inlet
fierce crest
#

@tender pagoda the cooldown reduction from warp charges is always 100%, will be fixed in the next patch

naive imp
#

That soul blaze charge talent should be charge generated while blaze or killed from blaze

#

Warp charge*

fierce crest
#

it used to be that

#

and it was good

#

now i dont even take it with purg lul

#

it used to be 10% if an enemy died while affected with your soulblaze

#

now its 10% if it dies to the soulblaze

naive imp
#

Is creeping flame worth the point?

fierce crest
#

yep

#

its a bug

#

its very silly

#

sill less OP than the surge bug or assail

orchid shadow
#

Surge bug?

fierce crest
#

the center keystone removes the peril cost when you have tokens

and since you can cast for as long as you have peril

not surge

#

yeah you only need one warp charge

#

and its 100%

fast swan
fierce crest
#

if you wanna use it with warp charges and have a normal cooldown, jsut double cast it whenever you use it

#

then youll know when youd actually be able to use it again correctly

still hearth
#

It could have 0s cooldown

#

And it would still be just okay

fierce crest
#

nah its nuts

#

especially the bubble

#

if you try to abuse it you should never die

fast swan
#

honstly i dont really like any of the blitzes because they make me swap off my weapon, which typically does the job better (void/trauma handle hordes and big things better than assail/smite/BB)

this is what i do

swap elite damage and terrify

5% more flak damage isn't really worth it imo

If you like suppressing enemies

You can spam LMB

I sort of wanna just reroll both my perks instead

Warp Flurry though

Though it's not as great rn even if the stacks are easier to keep up

warp flurry is strong, chain cast speed feels so nice

i wait that is warp flurry

warp nexus

I just want the high rating as well

warp nexus strong, warp flurry feels good

Warp Flurry gives you faster charge

Which is good for pretty much all staves imo

#

Both are good tbh but Surge is pretty fast anyway

#

you dont really need Uninterruptible cuz you can only be interrupted during the charge, not during the cast

It has the shortest charge speed
