psyker-class

[fierce crest]

holding block is easier than using slab shield special

[still hearth]

Pressing one button is harder than pressing another

[spare light]

Daemon & Ogryn are the easiest to tank with slab shield special

[still hearth]

???

[fierce crest]

yeah but block is instant

[spare light]

chaso/beast of nurgle just grab you

[fierce crest]

and you can move freely

[still hearth]

Okay but you don't need to instantly block in this case

[fierce crest]

still easier

[sonic coral]

so, what kind of build would you do with Trauma at this point?

[still hearth]

Okay whatever

[fierce crest]

armor strip or warpfire on crit

both good

[still hearth]

Look up anything from AgentChaos here

[mossy elbow]

so basically

[vocal sundial]

what kind of build would you do with knife at this point

[mossy elbow]

Have a friend who plays darktide

that friend has to play ogryn

[fierce crest]

or psyker

or zealot

[thin finch]

Tbh after switching to chainsword I got my ass broke in twain due to being used to the dueling sword movement, so I understand the feeling.
But here is a tip, you don't need to play meta so rock that MK V

[fierce crest]

i will use combat axes forever

dont care than DS are better in every way

[thin finch]

I do like chaining heavy on them

[fierce crest]

i chop

[thin finch]

H1 away

[fierce crest]

and lights with brutal momentum

very yummy

[naive imp]

How much is t4 warp flurry?

Also, surge seems like it would be really good

[fierce crest]

all staffs are good RN

void is just REALLY good

so it kinda overshadows the others

but all are viable in aurics

[thin finch]

Except trauma

[fierce crest]

skill issue

[thin finch]

Real

[naive imp]

I can see void being better at range but then once stuff is close it feels bad

Surge you can play point blank basically.

[thin finch]

Just aim at the ground

[fierce crest]

sure if youre encircled by ragers maybe

but if stuff isnt all around you its fine

sure maybe not quite as good as surge or purg in that situation

but far from bad

and then so much better in all other situations

[thin finch]

Also you can just switch to your melee weapon if they are in melee

[fierce crest]

chop chop

[thin finch]

While you cannot swith to your ranged weapon with purgatus

[fierce crest]

assail

[toxic mulch]

if I use the thing that raises max warp charges from 4 to 6, do I need to be at 6 in order to make progress on the Power Up penance? or is 4 still good enough?

[fierce crest]

need to be at 6

[toxic mulch]

damn

[steel flame]

Wot

[fierce crest]

theres a pennance where you need to stay at max warp charges for 5 minutes

theres a talent that changes your max warp charges

[naive imp]

I fink pure staff is a lot more fun than assail but assail is just so dumb.

Void definitely covers the big targets though.

[pliant tendon]

anyone know what is the crit chance on assail? and if it benefits from crit chance of weapons

[vagrant berry]

its my only psyker penance left, I need halp

[steel flame]

It was staying at whatever your max warp charges are be it 4 or 6

Unless they made a change to in patch 13

[vagrant berry]

I wanna wear the fancy black and red robes

[ebon jolt]

I belive in this patch the base crit% for psyker is 7.5%. I don't think assail crit chance is affected by weapon but maybe it's bugged like that. Then it's affected by the crit talents you can pick up in the tree.

As well as true aim.

Because it's considered a ranged attack.

[plucky flax]

If you play assail pls pick true aim.

It's op.

[frank moat]

The only blessing I tried (besides Hand-Cannon) that might effect Assail is Point Blank?

Wish there was an easy way to see crit chance

[spare light]

I need it too

If you have an Ogryn , I can help you out if you can help me out

[mossy elbow]

what about the legendary pair of trousers penance

how do i do that penance

[spare light]

you kill 4 elites

or specials

[mossy elbow]

with brain burst?

[spare light]

Yeah

[mossy elbow]

does that just sound a lot harder than it is

[spare light]

I mean, I did it by accident so xD

[mossy elbow]

on malice or heresy threat

[spare light]

I think I did it in a damnation high intensity shock trooper gauntlet

[strong gulch]

Trying to play this game with a cat on my lap is a condition modifier.

[idle bay]

It's a positive condition modifier 🙂

Took a Purgatus for a few mission (first time after patch 13) - it's not as bad as i thought it would be.

[steep storm]

what is getting nerfed on Void next patch?

[naive imp]

I was playing that till I tried the gaze build.

[plucky flax]

Gazer.

[naive imp]

Gassail is op

GASsail…

[plucky flax]

Gazer is good too with revolver.

Pop for extra crit.

[kindred kite]

What are good perks for voidstrike surge/nexus?

[naive imp]

Warp flurry

Oh perks

[steel flame]

Lol

[vagrant berry]

Ogyrn is my least played class :c

[kindred kite]

That would be good, but Hadron keep screaming "HERESY" at me when I suggest that

[vagrant berry]

depends if you wanna use it for crowd control or destroying single targets

[spare light]

It's cause someone mentioned ogryn pulling/tanking daemon , which would make it really easy

[vagrant berry]

if you want crowd control, transfer peril is a beautiful perk to have

[kindred kite]

I'm interested in both versions (even if I only have one relatively good staff now).

[vagrant berry]

The one I have is good at both

Works great at crowds and enemies with alot of health

[spare light]

I should really try & get Surge

although, warp nexus is nice

[kindred kite]

Right now I'm testing surge/nexus at Sefoni's, and chance to oneshot crusher is really nice.

[thin finch]

I also need that one tbh

[kindred kite]

I wonder, if this works on smaller monstrosities. If yes, than great.
And since weaker monstrosities are counted for Melk' contracts, I have a feeling they could be counted for this penance as well.

[naive imp]

Warp flurry and transfer could be good.

Fast firing and any weakspots drop peril.

Would be really good for hordes because you just aim at head level and cleave

[vagrant berry]

from what I can tell, its every enemy with a big healthbar

[spare light]

Thing is, you need to be in a private match

[queen fog]

the orange skull of death do be a roadblock for many, including myself

[vagrant berry]

Me and another guy are doing it together

so far struggling to find a boss

[queen fog]

ive helped a broski with it, we got lucky with a plague ogryn; squad was 1 shieldgryn, the psyker in question, and 2 vets

me and the other vet were on horde clear duty while the other 2 did the penace

most painstaking minutes fighting the urge to shoot the plague ogryn lol

[spare light]

look at this guy having 3 friends

[queen fog]

? no

complete randoms, all

only thing we had in common was the goal

[spare light]

look at this guy having 3 friendly randoms

[queen fog]

its not that hard my fellow reject, theres plenty of channels full of lads

lookin for help just like u on other penaces

[fringe warren]

Sorry to bother again, but to show your warp charges etc. next to the crosshair, that doesn't seem to be the remap mod?

[plucky flax]

Oh that one is crosshair hud.

I disable almost all the elements from that mod, only using the warp charges counter.

Alternately you can use a mod called blitz bar.

That mod's sole function is to show blitz/warp charges stuff.

[misty plaza]

will this tome teach me how to cast fireball

[queen fog]

yes but the fireball will have booger aids in it

[misty plaza]

fuck

☹️

[queen fog]

ya ik horrible trade off

[royal falcon]

nasty ass book

[misty plaza]

hear me out i want a new psyker staff that does a cone aoe in front of you and blasts out ice to freeze enemies for like 1-3 seconds but does like very little damage to balance it out

if not freeze than maybe slow them a lot

cause completely freeze seem busted

[naive imp]

Seems like reflavored smite!

[near wyvern]

Tell me you don't belong to Auric without telling me you don't belong to auric

[chrome patrol]

thoughs? i would like to add deflector and change the specialist perks

looks alot better than my old one

[near wyvern]

shred into deflector and specialist into +maniac

[chrome patrol]

and its a very decent weapon then right?

[near wyvern]

it's meh, devil's claw 4 is the meta horde clear for psykers at the moment

Illisi used to be super strong but it took a bit of a nerf bat this patch

[chrome patrol]

well

[near wyvern]

slaughterer is the one you want to pair with deflector for it

[chrome patrol]

next patch is around the corner

[vagrant berry]

Dueling Sword better B)

[chrome patrol]

illisi buffs come with it

[near wyvern]

buffs and nerfs

[night zephyr]

best voidstrike blessings?

[rotund dagger]

book club on Wednesdays

[digital narwhal]

At least it's getting buffed with Patch #14

[severe chasm]

cant go wrong with warp nexus or flurry

[digital narwhal]

So we can see how Illisi feels whenever the patch comes out

[night zephyr]

ive been seeing this fabled surge blessing, is that any good?

[digital narwhal]

(I've personally been enjoying Chainsword more than the Mk IV Devil's Claw too tbh)

[digital narwhal]

Surge with Warp Nexus is arguably BiS for Trauma Void

It can let you one shot Crushers on a crit

Especially so if you build into crits with your Skill Tree

[night zephyr]

goodness, how about on void?

[digital narwhal]

Wait

I meant Void

I mistyped

[night zephyr]

gotcha

geez

[tough shore]

So Psykers, out of curiousity...

Has ANYONE been able to make viable Scier builds/know what's best to playing it? Crit builds etc or?

[digital narwhal]

Crit Gun Psyker with Revolver or Mk III Headhunter

Those two are kinda really strong with Crit Psyker right now

however, Suppression is still an issue.

So Brain Burst or Assail is kinda necessary with Gun Psyker, for dealing with Gunners.

[tough shore]

Probs do Revolver

Any particular branches that people go for specifically? Warp charges etc?

I imagine Warp charges are the worst of course

For this build*

[teal wolf]

i have a build for gaze with revolver and its super fun not the best but very enjoyable

[tough shore]

Id imagine you'd run Disrupt Destiny with this

[night zephyr]

On auric, with purge soulflame builds, do you all think psychic vampire or in fire reborn is better?

My thought is soulflame is better, but on difficulties with that many enemies, i though vamp might be more consistent dunno

[teal wolf]

ya i run destiny on it its ehh hard to keep it up sometimes with people running through killing everything so you gotta be quick.

[night zephyr]

dat move speed XD

[naive imp]

How much damage does the void staff do fully juiced with charges and everything?

[teal wolf]

absolutely zooming and lots of crit paired with the gaze crit is great can 1 tap maulers and 2 tap crushers

[idle bay]

i mean.. well. thank you game.

[naive imp]

It’s like 90% more damage and then crit…like 3-4k?

[naive imp]

There’s an assail crit build that’s really nutty

You could run void or revovler

[west smelt]

Exactly my gunsyker build, with a duelling sword mk4

[near wyvern]

Try this one with Devil's Claw 4 and Vraks 3 headhunter

[valid talon]

Is 15% toughness the highest you can get?

[near wyvern]

a bit glass cannon but very naughty

[valid talon]

On a curio

[near wyvern]

no, 17 I think

yeah 17 is max

at the moment

[valid talon]

Huh, while health is 20

[near wyvern]

health is 21

[valid talon]

Do you guys think health or toughness is better for psyker?

[vagrant berry]

Why not both

[near wyvern]

I always run 1 stamina 2 toughness

[tough shore]

Why do I feel like the Devils claw is used specifically due to how good the parry can be lol

[valid talon]

Im currently going for toughness since it seems there a lot of that regen

[vagrant berry]

its what I do

[near wyvern]

nope, savage sweep + shred and you get those crit procs like an animal

[vagrant berry]

Although Talent tree thoughness is enough

[near wyvern]

and it fucking tears through horde

[tough shore]

Also, forgot ot mention a few days ago, only got Ogryn left to get all penances done:

Psykers, got all done.

[valid talon]

I know if you find a +3 stamina its a great fit

[tough shore]

Tbf, Im kinda glad you didnt mention the revolver with it

[near wyvern]

that's cheesing

[tough shore]

I still dont know how that works with it but eh

I'm a shovel enjoyer anyway

[near wyvern]

the build?

[tough shore]

Nah nah

The sword + revolver bug thing

[near wyvern]

hand cannon gives you +90% rending on critical hits, it's always active

so if you crit with your melee that crit enjoys 90% rending

same with assail

[tough shore]

Huh

[near wyvern]

it's a bug, it should only be active when revolver is out

[tough shore]

So if im right though, does the revolver not give you extra melee crit chance?

Intended*

Because I keep checking the Critical mechanic and it mentioned "melee crit chance"

and that for sure isnt for the pistol whip lmao

[near wyvern]

there is no "melee crit chance" or "melee damage" if I recall, it's just crit chance and damage

weapon boosts are only active when you have the weapon in question out

so called "active"

[clear heath]

did they mention anything about fixing the hand cannon thing?

[near wyvern]

I don't recall if it was mentioned or not

I remember the glorious days of crucian roulette

that was fun

but that got patched out so I don't see why they would not do the same here

[pine brook]

Damn, i seen some one in chat saying he is running some fast shooting gun on psyker with brain rapture talent and clear with it... but i cant find it and i still dont understand how, there is 15 sec CD on gun brain rapture.

[near wyvern]

yup it sucks

it used to be useful for warp charge generation but now it's just a meh talent

[tough shore]

Because the CD Id imagine stops a lot of chances of bigger targets like ogryns being insta-popped by a rapid fire, low damaging weapon

Spraying a SMG into a crowd and seeing like, 8+ head pops would be wild

[clear heath]

a lot of people still hype it up as if 1 poxwalker kill every 15 seconds is massive

[open crag]

I thought it was once per target every 15 seconds, its 15 seconds period?

[tough shore]

If it pops, 15 seconds to wait before it ends on a chance that it pops again

[clear heath]

bro if it was per target, it'd be great

purg staff could pop every target in a horde

[open crag]

nods, I dont ever use brain burst so wasnt sure lol

[vagrant berry]

Pog, finally have all the psyker penances

Now I can wear the big boy robes

got the drip finally

[idle bay]

Yay! 500 special conditions mission Frame! 🙂

[tough shore]

Welcommmme

[austere steeple]

So if I get a hand cannon with 90% rending on critical hits and I just have it equipped in my characters holster my assail will have max crit chance basically and I don’t have to pull out the revolver ?

[tough shore]

I just got mine done tooo

[idle bay]

now 128 more missions to 1500 mission frame.... sigh

[tough shore]

If you want to lower your IQ that of a bonehead Ogryn, go for it

[frank moat]

Bit late to this but no, Hand-Cannon was not mentioned in the U14 notes

[austere steeple]

I just got the game and I’m tryna do more damage till I get to level 30 then I’ll build something

[idle bay]

So revolver cheese will live on for a while ? 🙂

[frank moat]

Just having Hand-Cannon on your revolver will make both Assail and your Melee weapon crit rending

[tough shore]

Honestly if you're just going through Psyker to level before doing actual shit, go Assail due to its ease of use.

[austere steeple]

I personally wanna find a melee character idk if that would be zealot or ogryn

[frank moat]

Seems like it, though they don’t always list every change in the notes so we’ll have to see

[tough shore]

But damage wise, Voidstaff is always good as well

Actually rq, what is the better dueling sword

For psykers

[austere steeple]

Blaze I think

[frank moat]

Mk4 is the popular one for stabby stabby

[austere steeple]

So all I gotta do is get a revolver with crit chance and my assail will actually start doing damage 😂

[tough shore]

It honestly does great damage for what it is atm

Just dont use it extensively when a lot of maulers and crushers are around

[austere steeple]

Cuz I legit gotta throw like 5-6 crystals to kill elites

[frank moat]

Yea even with Hand-Cannon it’s not gonna shred armour all that much

[tough shore]

Best use of assail atm is throw it in crowds

Right clicks towards far elites

Otherwise thats mostly for what it is

[austere steeple]

Then void staff for the armored folks

[tough shore]

Its not a mass damage dealer/armor piercer

Voids always good

[frank moat]

For the most part it’ll just give you a billion overkill damage every game from cutting down chaffwalkers

[lapis bay]

worf?

[real wadi]

who wants to help me for maleus monstrum ?

[analog agate]

team carried with smite/surge in auric

[desert snow]

carried with smite? I won't even say any more.

[austere steeple]

Does anyone have a ss of the revolver roll I need to get?

[analog agate]

I'm using this just to see how "great" surge/smite is. I still think I can do much better with any other staff/blitz combo. But there was a user a couple of days ago swearing it was the best staff ever

[desert snow]

surge is pretty good, especially since you can build up peril fast to shriek and burn a whole horde down. Smite? pick anything else

[austere steeple]

I like my surge staff that’s what I feel does more damage to elites and bosses

[analog agate]

I do smite soly cause I like the pretty colors

[austere steeple]

😂

[desert snow]

next patch is fixing both of those bugs thank god

[tough shore]

...did you have Empowered Psyonics lol

[idle bay]

Random mission drop

[analog agate]

No, I don't use the glitch. Warp, baby

[tough shore]

Also, 2nd revolver from brunts armory:

If ONLY this was on my VETERAN

[austere steeple]

So am I looking critical bonus on the revolver?

[tough shore]

380 modifier rating and all above 70+

I'm a happy man

[desert snow]

I think smite should be a quick-cast like zealot's throwing knives. It's dumb you have to stunlock YOURSELF to stun a couple enemies

[frank moat]

I mean if this is just to boost Assail then stats don’t matter

Purely Hand-Cannon

[tough shore]

Admittedly Smite's actually pretty fucking good trade off for that

[idle bay]

So how revolver rending cheese works? Just have it equiped and that's it?

[tough shore]

Genuinly it can stop what is a party wipe of a horde if your teamates focus on the bigger dangers

[tough shore]

wut

Im just talking about the stats not the cheese lol

[frank moat]

Yes, gives all crits for any weapon rending properties *with Hand-Cannon blessing as mentioned

[desert snow]

Yea, but you could do the same with something like purgatus or especially trauma

[austere steeple]

what’s the blessing called?

[frank moat]

Hand-Cannon 😩

[austere steeple]

Okay sorry I haven’t looked yet lmao

Thank you!!!

Every time I see the roll convict I just hear Akon in the back of my head

[idle bay]

It's rather silly little bug 🙂

Going back to Surge staff anyway 🙂

[austere steeple]

No one talks in game : (

How tf am I supposed to get homies to play with 😴

[tough shore]

Auric maelstrom has a high chance of actual socialising

[austere steeple]

Yeah but I refuse to be dead weight I’m just not that kind of player 😂

I gotta get to level 30 first

[tough shore]

Oh I mean

If you wanna power level

[austere steeple]

I haven’t tried it yet is that the big mission in the middle

[tough shore]

EVERY curio you get

Upgrade it to blue tier

and slap 10% xp on

Then do maelstrom normals

[austere steeple]

Yeah I did that

I got 2 of them

[tough shore]

Best ones is malice or heresy

They give you more usually than the regular varients

even saw a malice Maelstrom give more than a damnation regular lmao

[austere steeple]

You think I could do a malice maelstrom?

[tough shore]

Well yeah

[austere steeple]

Bet

[tough shore]

Maelstroms dont increase HP or anything like that

its just more 'events' that happen during the mission

So instead of High intensity, it'll be High intensity - shock trooper gauntlet etc

Sometimes gives a player friendly event though too like increase blitz use

[austere steeple]

Noted thank you 👍

I’m about to get on get that revolver and run it up

[tough shore]

Voidstaff is very good honestly

[austere steeple]

I have one

[tough shore]

It does so much for what it is

and feels good to use

[vagrant frigate]

@austere steeple u wanna run an auric maelstrom til ur 30

with randoms

i can carry

[austere steeple]

Shiiiiii

[tough shore]

Or do quickplay auric heresy

[austere steeple]

Say less homie if you don’t mind

[tough shore]

with a carry

[vagrant frigate]

ight

[still hearth]

Okay so why does Surge do

Random damage??

[austere steeple]

I’m finishing my rice bowl real quick

[vagrant frigate]

ight

0840324794

[austere steeple]

I’ll send it in a couple minutes

[near wyvern]

cause it's lightning

doesn't always tickle the same way

[still hearth]

No but its like

50 damage difference??

When the ticks do 5 damage

https://medal.tv/games/warhammer-40000-darktide/clips/1zLefgT4pKLfq2/d13374nIave1?invite=cr-MSxtQ3QsMTYwMDY1NDYwLA

This is without any talents

[near wyvern]

[still hearth]

Yeah I was just so confused

It's pretty funny

[vagrant frigate]

[solar sand]

any point in the axe when i have the sword?

[vagrant frigate]

i mean if you wanna use it

mk4 is fun

i pref

[idle bay]

First time with a team of players when my "true level" is the lowest 🙂

[vagrant frigate]

grats

[austere steeple]

@vagrant frigate sent it

[vagrant frigate]

idk how it works lol

try again

[austere steeple]

922788627

thats mine if you didnt get it

[vagrant frigate]

says it doesnt match

[austere steeple]

steam code right?

or am i tripping

[vagrant frigate]

oh nah ingame code

[austere steeple]

oh shit

[vagrant frigate]

ill add u on steam

[austere steeple]

i just sent a random guy a friend request lmao

[solar sand]

how does this calculate, does that mean i get 55% increased weakpoint damage, or is it a 1.55x to my weapons finesse stat?

so would it be 3.78x or 2.98x

[lapis bay]

What are some good secondaries?

[solar sand]

crit hit for maniac to be able to one shot mutants on 5 without damage buffs?

[south rapids]

So, a veteran literally 1shooted a chaos spawn that spawned, at heresy, wtf is happening?

[solar sand]

double krak nade crit probably

krak nade damage is crazy

easily one shot a crusher

[south rapids]

damn

[solar sand]

they have a passive that gives a 10% or so chance to throw 2 nades, if its crit i bet itd nearly one shot a boss

[desert snow]

That passive is really good because you've got a 10% chance of ever picking it

[spare light]

can someone explain this talent to me btw?

[solar sand]

for 1 second after a crit you are basically immune to ranged attacks?

[spare light]

Alright, I figured, but with some of these explanations, I'm never sure xD

[solar sand]

or thats how i assume it works

then again there is descriptors for "immune to ranged attacks"

so why that isnt the same descriptor idk

[south rapids]

It is handy if you have the melee mod that grants you dmg on dodge

[solar sand]

zealots get something similar where if they sprint they count as dodging to ranged attacks, which i assume has the same effect, just procd differently

[south rapids]

Anyway, it is just me or trying to get the brainburst penances seems like abusing your team?

[solar sand]

whats toughness curious max roll? ive never seen above 16% but i saw something that suggest they go up to 20

[olive ember]

a cspawn specifically?

[golden frigate]

17%

[olive ember]

might be some geometry thing

for example if you push a cspawn while hes leaping mid air it just auto dies

[solar sand]

is there a trick to getting disrupt destiny to work or is it just bugged currently?

seems wildly inconsistent

[olive ember]

pretty inconsistent

best I can offer is either take a gun and go out of your way to kill marked enemies

or take the feat that lets the stack last 30 s

[solar sand]

trying to make a melee build where i get to spam shield so disrupt seems to be the best option

warp siphon i find myself holding onto my ability

[steel flame]

Amazing perk. On my crit laspistol build it just gives me ranged immunity while shooting

[olive ember]

if you want to spam shield probably run warp charges

which give CDR

[solar sand]

well not perma up time

i want damage boost

basically

but also dont want to be penalized for using the shield

[olive ember]

there was a guy who ran a melee build lemme see if i can find his build

tho its def unorthodox

#psyker-class message

[steel flame]

Oh yeah that's mine

[olive ember]

TBH tho I would cook something else up

[steel flame]

That's my crit build. Disrupt destiny mainly there for more speeeeeeed

[distant mango]

what's the difference between the 3 force swords?

[steel flame]

Arco was running close to that and going nuts with scrier devil claw sword

[rancid violet]

Ya know, having played the Assail Psyker... Can't see what all the fuss is about.
Like yeah, it's better at killing fleshy targets and grunts from afar... Can kinda handle mid-sized and mini-hordes...
But it's crap against heavy armor and takes a few extra yeets to down flak'n'such.
Have to spam it on heavy ragers.
With its limited crystals to yeet, even with the quick recovery, it has trouble with larger hordes and tougher targets in general. Not to mention the fact that ANY kind of cover denies it, whether it be a net-like mesh of steel or even railing.

TBH I prefer the bio-lightning, even if it's less efficient for single-target mobs and has none of the reach...
If only because if I get a charge from the middle purple tree, I can just hold the trigger to stagger and esplode pretty well anything other than mini-bosses. Can reach over/around cover/shields too, unlike Assail.

[strong gulch]

@vagrant frigate Has a fun melee build.

Runs both movement speed from Gaze and DD.

Plus fire from perilous combustion and wild fire.

[south rapids]

The running and jumping dude

[olive ember]

yeah cspawn is weird cuz if you stagger him while hes in the air he just insta dies iirc

[steel flame]

The annoying boss

[olive ember]

thats probably what I'd run

maybe swap for DD idk

#psyker-class message

this is hech's build

[south rapids]

20% is max roll according to data

[solar sand]

just a little bit of damage gets some break points on t5 it seems, namely mutants

so trying disrupt to see if i can keep it up

[golden frigate]

and 100 is the max for stats, yet you don't see them go past 80

[steel flame]

17% is Max

Rn

Annoyingly

[golden frigate]

red curios will go up higher but as of now the ceilings are 21% hp, 3 stam, 1 wound and 17% toughness

[steel flame]

Wounds are weird

[spice oar]

half price!?!?

https://tenor.com/view/sad-ant-this-is-how-i-feel-when-sad-ant-with-bindle-hormiga-triste-hormiga-yendose-gif-8032300637149839825

[steel flame]

Cause they did have decimals so 3 max roll wounds could give you 4 wounds

[golden frigate]

do they?

[steel flame]

But that was ages ago

[olive ember]

maybe I'd run this if I wanna go full into melee/gun psyker

theres no anti armor in this build tho so idk what i'd do against crushers

I guess I can do assail for horde and just bring a dsword for crushers

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[golden frigate]

gently caress them with your pointy shards

[misty plaza]

sorry for not responding sooner, not like smite where its a continuous stream but just a charge and then shoot kinda of like the trauma force staff thats the best why i could explain it

[olive ember]

i got it i'll run the combat knife

[misty plaza]

[limber marsh]

best surge force staff perks?

[solar sand]

flurry nexus

[olive ember]

Crit chance, Maniac, Flak, Carapace

[limber marsh]

thanks guys

[solar sand]

@limber marsh something like this, but crit chance instead of unyeilding usually

[steel flame]

That staff hurts my soul

[whole oxide]

0 damage taken auric maelstrom with blazing trauma / BB / dome:

[valid talon]

What perks do you guys prefer on a crit build voidstrike staff?

I have a +4 crit chance and +2 stamina (ew) im looking to replace

[solar sand]

carapace

[whole oxide]

crit-chance and unyielding, i'd say

[solar sand]

carapace or unyeilding, as nothing else lives a voistrike

[strong gulch]

This is going poorly

welp, it's full bricked

[valid talon]

I sometimes wonder how these heretics are alive after a warp shot to the face

This is fine

[strong gulch]

no face

[steady ocean]

which psyker voice do yall like? can't decide

[solar sand]

my beloved of course

[valid talon]

I like the cheeky one because when reviving zealots she snarks at them

"I touched you, now you're damned forever!"

[steady ocean]

female beloved is probably the one I see the least

[fierce crest]

which one is that

[languid tusk]

this talent is amazing if you have a ranged weapon that just spams crits nonstop like a surge staff or even a purgatus with a crit build

basically as long as you crit you are completely immune to any and all form of ranged damage

i just created purgatus crit build (thats right i was the first to play purgatus crit build i am the rightful inventor of the playstyle) and i can confirm that talent is a game changer

[strong gulch]

If you're asking about femme beloved, it's seer.

[fierce crest]

how do you check which one you got

its been so long

i forgor

[strong gulch]

very excited about stairs and causious of opening doors

[spare light]

I might take it on void tbf

[languid tusk]

female seer sounds like a recovering drug addict

[spare light]

also this stupid penance is driving me insane

[strong gulch]

Doesn't sound like any I know.

[steady ocean]

seer F is the old lady w/ the rasping voice

[strong gulch]

Love the old lady raspy voice.

[fierce crest]

i dont think i picked the oldest sounding voice

but idr

[gusty furnace]

Warp Battery with the changes to warp charges is stupid

I'd just not do it until fatshark changes the penance

[fierce crest]

just dont take warp battery?

[strong gulch]

All of the effort to pick your background and voice, but there is no way of knowing what you picked after character creation. Hate it.

[gusty furnace]

Its. . . a penance

[fierce crest]

its a talent

[gusty furnace]

I have no idea what that's supposed to mean as a question.

[fierce crest]

but also a penance lul

my b

it makes the penance slightly harder

[gusty furnace]

on the topic of voices

I picked the enforcer

I regret that decision

A lot

ENFORCER THIS ENFORCER THAT LEX ATOMA

Gets real fuckin old

they really need to get some more voicelines for those two(Male and female versions)

[acoustic spade]

which staff benefits from the Blazing Spirit blessing the most?

[gusty furnace]

Trauma

by far

[acoustic spade]

I assume its just wasted on Purgatus

[strong gulch]

Trauma

[spice veldt]

only trauma and void have blazing spirit

[acoustic spade]

got this as Emperor's gift but the stats arent great

[strong gulch]

purg can't get blazing spirit

[gusty furnace]

I wouldn't even bother

just rip off rending shockwave

and add it to the sticker book

[acoustic spade]

I already have a Rending Shockwave on another Trauma staff

[gusty furnace]

then scrap it for 9k gold

[gusty furnace]

I don't fuckin know

its not worth fixing

is my point

[fierce crest]

dont take the warp battery talent, take psychic vampire, take brain rupture or assail

[gusty furnace]

I still use the old ascendant blaze build

Because why change from something that's good

and I don't gimp my skill on assail

[acoustic spade]

yeah I get that, the base staff itself is worse than my existing (still pretty mid) Trauma

[fierce crest]

i like using purg to deal out a bit of cc to the horde while using bb to kill big boys

[acoustic spade]

Was just thinking ahead if I should even bother with putting Blazing on the staff or not

[gusty furnace]

Its also way less frustrating for teammates if I don't use assail.

I may outshine them in mixed hordes

but they outshine me in ranged fights

unlike assail where it just does literally everything

[fierce crest]

obv dont take kinetic resonance or seers presence

[boreal crag]

Do Force Sword lights and heavies count as warp attacks?

[acoustic spade]

I never really liked Brain Burst

[gusty furnace]

Only when activated

Illisi can give you 100% toughness back

when using activated heavy 1

[spare light]

Yeah but BB without EP is doodoo

[gusty furnace]

And the 15% toughness per warp kill talent

[gusty furnace]

No, BB without warp charges is ass

[acoustic spade]

HUH

[gusty furnace]

EP just lets you not deal with ascendant blaze on shriek

[spice veldt]

soulstealer babeeeee

[acoustic spade]

Guess Ill just scrap it for the rending then

[strong gulch]

Only the speacial counts as warp attacks.

[gusty furnace]

Quicken, I guess.

Ascendant blaze is a separate node

Quicken is just baked into shriek now

[boreal crag]

Ok, that puts a damper on the “Totally not Unchained Sienna” build idea lol

[strong gulch]

Love when Brunt only shows you 1 in 10 weapons that he sells you.

[fierce crest]

good luck completing the penance without taking warp siphon

[spare light]

Yeah see, I knew something was off, but my brain couldn't process

[fierce crest]

something like this would be best i think

[spare light]

was using Assail instead

[fierce crest]

its funny how hard it is to spend all your points if youre ignoring active ability

only 3 talents left out

[fierce crest]

i like bb cuz it last hits elite/specials better

[spare light]

Yeah, I'll give it a go

[fierce crest]

you dont care who kills the scrubs for psychic vampire

[gusty furnace]

BB got a pretty massive nerf this patch

outside of warp charges

[fierce crest]

but you have to deal the killing blow to non scrubs

[gusty furnace]

It no longer grants you warp charges if someone kills the elite out from under you

Even if you're above 50% charge

super infuriating

[spare light]

Isn't Kinetic Resonance kinda useless aswell?

[gusty furnace]

I have no idea what that is

You'll have to take a picture

[spare light]

Quicker BB when using career

[gusty furnace]

I figured out my psyker build and put little more effort into it

[spare light]

which spends warp charges

[gusty furnace]

Oh, no that's great for bosses

[fierce crest]

yeah i dont have that one selected

[spare light]

Not for the penance

[gusty furnace]

Oh

if you're doing Warp Battery

you straight up can't ult

that's all there is to it

[spare light]

Yep

[gusty furnace]

Its fucking stupid

[spare light]

I've gotten to 210 seconds

[fierce crest]

yeah so didnt pick ult upgrades or resonance

[gusty furnace]

Granted, you basically can't ult at all now if you use shriek

I guess you CAN if you don't use the warp charge keystone

But warp charges having quicken baked into them is really dumb.

[gusty furnace]

But BB lost all of its breakpoints with the elite HP gains, AND you drop warp charges for ulting and can't even BB 6 random adds to get them back

[fierce crest]

lul

talent tree too spicy

[spare light]

Fatshark is watching

[thorn cedar]

nsfw psyker build (NAKED)

[spare light]

by: exploits

[fierce crest]

these talents are for ults only

so can be skipped

[spare light]

I'm basically running that

[gusty furnace]

I mean I like ascendant blaze

warpfire on ult is fine

Soulflame or whatever fatshark calls it could stand to be buffed though

[lapis bay]

Surge or void?

[gusty furnace]

Void if you wanna make everyone mad

because you one-shot everything in the game

Surge if you wanna be useful without doing all of the work

[fierce crest]

actually yeah i guess void would be good too

[spare light]

Did people move over to Void to complain instead of Assail now?

[fierce crest]

you wanna just prio killing elites/specials

[gusty furnace]

I think they're both problematic

Extremely problematic

If I'm going to speak plainly about it.

[languid tusk]

yeah voidstrike is teh new problematic child of the psyker family

[fierce crest]

its both

its been both

[gusty furnace]

Assail is super fucking broken op shit

[spice veldt]

I'll shoot void in the kneecaps

[gusty furnace]

So it overshadows voidstrike

But voidstrike is nearly as broken

[languid tusk]

debatable

[spice veldt]

I think assail is just more flashy

and accessible at early levels

[fierce crest]

also the bugs with shield/warp charge and smite/empowered

[gusty furnace]

stand still

do 100k damage in 6 seconds

"Flashy"

[spice veldt]

getting that assail money at lvl 4

[gusty furnace]

Though for all I know you could memeing mr assail main

[languid tusk]

assail is more noticeable because it ruins low level lobbies

literally clear teh whole level

voidstrike might be stronger but you dont notice it much

[spice veldt]

you can hear the impact of each knife and see them direct to enemies

[gusty furnace]

it clears the whole level in maelstrom

the fuck you mean

[gusty furnace]

Mutants aside

[old flame]

Was assail nerfed?

[spice veldt]

voidstrike actually does have an explosion obscuring things

[old flame]

What changed in the patch?

[languid tusk]

i mean if you are level 10 and you get assail psyker in lobby ur screwed, not so much if you get v oidstrike

[acoustic spade]

Is Blazing Spirit worth it to put on Voidstrike?

[fierce crest]

no

but its cool

[spice veldt]

of course if you run pro gamer graphics like me

[gusty furnace]

No, Voidstrike just means that the psyker has an on-tap oneshot tool

which mostly matters for ragers, crushers, and bulwarks

[unique mist]

not at all

[gusty furnace]

assail takes care of everything else

[unique mist]

blazing spirit and blazing soul are kinda trash ngl

[spare light]

I really don't mind that when I'm leveling tbf

[strong gulch]

They do different things and have different feels.

Void is heckin OP and can do just about everything, but blast sounds can be a lot.

Surge is single target damage with CC on up to 3 target with +1 from smite. Builds really well with creeping flames.

[spare light]

they make it easier

[spice veldt]

assail being agnostic to the positioning of enemies also helps

swipe your mouse across the screen to lock onto targets

[acoustic spade]

oh the talent from smite works on surge?

Does the other talent work as well?

[gusty furnace]

I don't really think the proposed changes to assail are all that great

Like someone on the subreddit said

[spice veldt]

same

[gusty furnace]

"I can't believe its not Brainburst"

[spice veldt]

needs an ammo economy nerf

and a real heavy one

[gusty furnace]

Yeap

[spice veldt]

assail is already fine as a quick swap weapon

[spare light]

Void probably needs a higher peril cost

[spice veldt]

I'd rather they lean into that identity

[gusty furnace]

It just needs a damage nerf

[fierce crest]

STAFF SIZE SCALES WITH HEIGHT

[gusty furnace]

It shouldn't be one-shotting anything

[thorn cedar]

imo assail should be a magazine you pull from and that only recharges when you exit the blitz. if you don't use all the shards then what's left is lost

[spice veldt]

I think that might be a little too complex

[gusty furnace]

Uh

[unique mist]

that would be super annoying

[gusty furnace]

adds aside

[thorn cedar]

cause having ten (functionally 14-17 with the ridiculous recharge rate) is pretty dunbo

[gusty furnace]

It'd also make psykers think about WHEN to use assail

[spice veldt]

and you'd practically achieve the same thing by setting a globally slow regen

[gusty furnace]

not this "Have it out 24/7" bullshit

That completely ruins the game for everyone else

[thorn cedar]

yea exactly my intention

[unique mist]

the main problem with assail is low end content (malice and below) when it can be used as a primary weapon that does ruin the game

[thorn cedar]

make it that you need to be considerate

[gusty furnace]

ITS A PRIMARY WEAPON ON DAMNATION, AURIC DAMNATION, AND MAELSTROM DAMNATION

[spice veldt]

my rough numbers would be 3 max shards and slower Regen a fair amount

[gusty furnace]

this "low diff" bullshit is a massive strawman

[unique mist]

as an assail psyker in damnation, i use voidstrike for most of my horde clear and only use assail when things get hairy

[thorn cedar]

Ye that would also be good

[gusty furnace]

assail is problematic in every single difficulty in the game

[spice veldt]

talent synergy is also a nice thing for assail

[unique mist]

i haven't noticed it being a problem on damnation but then again i haven't been playing that long

[gusty furnace]

Yeah, sorry for yelling.

[unique mist]

kek

[gusty furnace]

Its just that assail is extremely problematic no matter where you're playing at.

[spice veldt]

don't worry as an assail main I can assure you that it's broken af

[valid talon]

I just wonder how assail scales damage to be amazing at every difficulty and level

[gusty furnace]

And I'm tired of people coping about it.

[spice veldt]

cuz it's an autoaim weapon

it's raw DPS isn't like amazing

but it has essentially 100% accuracy and uptime

[rich phoenix]

so when we getting that 9k aquillas for the PC players?

[gusty furnace]

no but 2 shards kills every group of a horde

[spice veldt]

no damage off either

[gusty furnace]

and when there's 5 groups with 10 seconds between each

[unique mist]

sorry man you're never getting those aquilas

[gusty furnace]

the assail psyker kills the whole horde with no downtime

[thorn cedar]

eat your corpse starch reject

[rich phoenix]

damn

[valid talon]

Next week

[gusty furnace]

I'll be honest.

I highly doubt fatshark ever gives us free aquilas

[unique mist]

the aquilas were meant to entice gamepass xbox players to buy the base game so fatshark gets more money

[fierce crest]

"free"

[gusty furnace]

"Pearl Clutching" statement aside

they're a business first.

[valid talon]

I hope we at least get a beta armor set

[fierce crest]

(paid for with cashola)

[gusty furnace]

If anything it might be a somewhat low quality custom set for PC players only

Not quite akin to the beta helmet

but in the same vein

[chrome patrol]

they diddnt even deliver the full promised game yet

[gusty furnace]

I only say low quality considering how Krieg released

[chrome patrol]

as long that is you guys should not give them any money for skins

[unique mist]

if PC players get a PC exclusive set you can bet your sweet bippy xbox players will complain about it lmaoo

[valid talon]

I want to show how much of a loser I am by painting beta on both my helmet and armor

[gusty furnace]

No tubes, no animations on any of the clothing

[thorn cedar]

Anyone with a Pearl Clutcher name tag gets auto-equipped with an unequibable helmet that has a giant dong painted on it

[unique mist]

it can't be an exclusive and it can't be a premium cosmetic

[valid talon]

I find the whole beta helmet hilarious for that reason

Literally wearing a hat that calls you a beta

10/10 design

[gusty furnace]

I got the beta helmet and I didn't even play the beta

[unique mist]

"Xbox Players Got Nine Thousand Bonus Aquilas And All I Got Was This T-Shirt" t-shirt

[gusty furnace]

I got the game a week after release

and was still given the beta helmet

Stonks, I guess.

[valid talon]

Honestly they could just remove cosmetics and give us a naked skin and I would be down for it

[unique mist]

i mean the game was obviously still in beta on release

[gusty furnace]

GW said no.

[valid talon]

Like that old bug

[unique mist]

so it makes sense

[gusty furnace]

That's why the bug was originally patched.

[valid talon]

Rip

[gusty furnace]

They came down HARD on that.

[valid talon]

Wait why

[gusty furnace]

Absolutely no skin cosmetics.

Because it doesn't fit their vision.

[valid talon]

No top nudity in our universe of extreme suffering and mature stuff

[gusty furnace]

Ogryn is the only human in 40k who actually goes naked into battle

Sisters Repentia aside

And its because Ogryns have tank armor for skin

so it doesn't matter

and Sisters Repentia are making up for sins, slights, and other failings deemed by their leadership

[naive imp]

Could see that being good for bossing

[gusty furnace]

Naw, trauma staff is ass at damaging bosses

you're better off using literally anything else

The only staff worse is purg

[valid talon]

Reject gift of the emperor, embrace random rolled staff from a warehouse room somewhere

[spare light]

I fucking wish people would stop queueing for damnation when they aren't level 30

[gusty furnace]

Then don't play regular damnation

[valid talon]

You can do damnation at 20

[gusty furnace]

go play auric

And take your high horse elsewhere

[olive ember]

i mean i see <lvl 30 in auric too

[valid talon]

It’s the level 15s that got it rough lmao

[olive ember]

and the auric randos aint much better

[valid talon]

I once saw a level 6 in damnation

[olive ember]

[valid talon]

I don’t even k ow how

[spare light]

No high horse, but from all people I've had sub 30, they are always the ones going down each 2 minutes

[gusty furnace]

If I can manage a 90-95% winrate dealing with pubs

these peeps can suck it up

[valid talon]

Poor guy learned how to suffer wh40k style

[gusty furnace]

and just git gud

and carry them

[olive ember]

the last game I had I swear there was a guy going down every 30 seconds

it was an experience lmao

[spice veldt]

me and my 71.5% winrate 😔

[olive ember]

wait whats the thing to check win rate again

[gusty furnace]

Penance Progress

I just use my F5 screen

[spice veldt]

darkti.de

[gusty furnace]

and use some guesstimation

[spice veldt]

pop the numbers into a spreadsheet or something

[gusty furnace]

(Saved scoreboards)

[olive ember]

but

that requires me to log in to steam

what if it takes my information

[spice veldt]

true

sniff sniff sniff

[valid talon]

The government is gonna steal your darktide win rate info

Oooooooooooh whooooooooo

[gusty furnace]

how do I actually check?

[solar sand]

i got this using smite on some enemies above me

[gusty furnace]

I did that with force swords

[strong gulch]

when bubble shield goes thru the grated floor

[gusty furnace]

on uh

the smelter mission

[wet belfry]

I have a 100% winrate on sedition.

[olive ember]

I remember when it was 20 enemies MADGE

[mossy canopy]

I did it with a purg staff

[gusty furnace]

Yeah I guess its more accurate to ask "What do I do when I get here" to check winrate

[spice veldt]

you can login into https://darkti.de/ (made by raindish, the developer of numericUI and the like)
Press on the Armoury tab, select the character that you want to see the stuff off, then press on the Statistics sub-tab

you'll see this row of values that can be copy-pasted into a spreadsheet

the SUMIFS() function will be useful

this is how my function for winrate is set up
=SUMIFS(G4:G328,F4:F328,"TRUE", E4:E328, "5")/(SUMIFS(G4:G328,F4:F328,"TRUE", E4:E328, "5")+SUMIFS(G4:G328,F4:F328,"FALSE", E4:E328, "5")) * 100
and here's my columns look like

[naive imp]

Sorry. I should have clarified. I meant blazing specifically.

[valid talon]

Why would you go through so much effort to find a winrate

[spice veldt]

y not

[naive imp]

I’m also curious the interaction of blazing and wildfire.

[gusty furnace]

Its a useful tool

[spice veldt]

i'm quite invested in this game so I'm interested in it

[valid talon]

You could be purging heretics

[naive imp]

Can you crit cleave spread with blazing?

[spice veldt]

tru tru

[gusty furnace]

por que

[spice veldt]

blazing spirit has a max limit of 6 soulblaze stacks applied to an enemy, unfortunately

[valid talon]

I guess my question is what do you do after level 30

[spice veldt]

oh right, you need the dtAuth mod first

[gusty furnace]

make number go up

[spice veldt]

oop

[gusty furnace]

and grind out gear

[naive imp]

Applied to 1 enemy? Cause I mean void is a rail gun

[valid talon]

It’s not that hard to roll a set of gear with pretty good stats and modifiers

[spice veldt]

https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kdarktide/mods/178

[solar sand]

try some auric maelstroms, they are fun and i doubt youll be able to do them off the bat of hitting 30, so something to strive to

[naive imp]

You could easily crit in a line and spread around if possible.

I just don’t know the interaction.

[spice veldt]

applied to all enemies hit by the projectile and outer explosion

[valid talon]

I played a couple aurics but never maelstrom

But I’m kinda miffed there’s no better reward for them

[fierce crest]

getting to lvl 30 is completing the tutorial

[valid talon]

Just more Ordos (lmao) and xp (super lmao)

[fierce crest]

now you play the game

[gusty furnace]

danke schoen

[solar sand]

i just think they are fun imo, more so than random 4s or 5s

[spice veldt]

and then you'll have to start the game up witht he mod installed for the authentication, where you can then close the game afterwards

[gusty furnace]

Apparently its a 73.285 global winrate

I'll take it

[spice veldt]

noooooooo

[gusty furnace]

assuming I did it right

[spice veldt]

prolly

[gusty furnace]

I am, mathematically confirmed, better than Arcotash.

[spice veldt]

i cri

[gusty furnace]

(lets ignore the fact that I main ogryn)

(Ogryn is the most overpowered class in Darktide, and has been since release)

[spice veldt]

😔

[gusty furnace]

its okay buddy

maybe you can join the cool kids club one day

[spice veldt]

i want my additive DR

[naive imp]

Like 6 stacks per enemy that is crit…then 4 stacks are applied in aoe from wildfire?

Immediately because crit then dead?

[spice veldt]

wildfire also has an unlisted limit of being unable to apply stacks if the enemy already has 4 or more soulblaze stacks

[naive imp]

I’m just saying blazing gives void staff some pretty beefy cleave on top of it’s already beefy cleave. And maybe helps with boss damage a bit.

Which seems to be where psyker struggles

[solar sand]

man i hate using brain burst this way, feels so painfully slow without empowered and ability use

[bleak tulip]

idk just dont worry about it?

default cosmetics kinda stinky anyway

go for redacted or just buy something with dockets

[solar sand]

only got like 4 left so for completion more so than rewards

[strong gulch]

There have been a lot of level 23s in T5 today.

[naive imp]

@spice veldt just in case you missed it

[spice veldt]

o

6 stacks is nice but not too great in the single-target department

and that's at the opportunity cost of another blessing

assuming you're running Surge (blessing), the other slot could've been Flurry or Nexus instead

[spare light]

Guess I'm not the only one running into them

[gentle hinge]

use brain burst with warp siphon, just run the flame staff and you will get it done in no time trough random brain burst

[naive imp]

Yea i’m just trying to solve the psyker single target issue.

[spice veldt]

I don't use void so I can't say if it works or doesn't work for hordeclear

tbh our best ranged boss DPS would be a gun, and a bloodletter chainsword would be idea for boss DPS that doesn't depend on weakspot hits

[strong gulch]

Had at least 3 level 23s and some 40s. The 40s were very competent tho.

[solar sand]

its amazing for hoard clear

[spice veldt]

because while the duelling swords and its like are all great, they do rely on weakspots for the most part

[austere steeple]

how do you level up blessings?

[spare light]

Worst today was a level 18

[austere steeple]

or what you get is what you got when you level it to blue

[neat summit]

That’s the best part. You don’t

[spice veldt]

can't upgrade blessings unfortunately

you have to earn higher tier blessings from weapons

that's the only way of getting new blessings

[neat summit]

Earn it, varlet

You earn blessings through sacrifices at the RNG altar

[austere steeple]

so if i have handcannon 2 i would have to keep crafting and leveling stub revolvers to blue till i get a handcannon 4?

[spice veldt]

yup

it's as painful as you think it is

[neat summit]

🙂

[austere steeple]

fuck me

xD

[neat summit]

Yep

[languid tusk]

thats asking too much

assail is the kind of ability that you kind of use whenever and it still does its job

[neat summit]

Idk I don’t do well with assail void. Give me BB purg and I’m Gucci.

[spice veldt]

though players shouldn't be incentivized (or able) to hold it out for more than a few seconds

[spare light]

I feel most comfy with void, can't wait for the nerfs though, so I can adapt

[austere steeple]

is 4 the highest blessing?

[bleak tulip]

the nerfs are pretty minor tbh

its still gonna be quite good

[spare light]

I'm expecting bigger nerfs

[languid tusk]

the nerfs are going to reduce damage by 30% on carapace

[bleak tulip]

youre just not blowing up crushers as hard

[spare light]

Which I don't mind tbf

I mainly use it for horde clear

[coarse osprey]

is laspistol good rn?

[spare light]

BB is my elite killer

[spice veldt]

yeah laspistol is nice

[languid tusk]

guys did you know that soulblaze counts as a warp attack ? you could do crit purgatus to boost teh damage of soulblaze with crits

[spare light]

How does a crit purgatus build even look like?

[spice veldt]

it doesn't seem as great on paper because you can't see its crit chance, but it has one of the better crit/weakspot multipliers in the game

[olive ember]

its a gun

it works kinda

[spare light]

cause I got this

[olive ember]

idk why you would bring it on psyker tho

[coarse osprey]

this worth blowing some mats on

[olive ember]

yeah thats pretty meta

[spice veldt]

of course

warp flurry + warp nexus is standard affair and then flak + crit/unyielding/maniac etc.

[olive ember]

I can't tell if arcotash is hard trolling

its a good pistol tho

[neat summit]

This is similar to what I have and it slaps. I play auric Damnation pretty regularly and it always slaps

[coarse osprey]

what blessings should I be hoping for?

[bleak tulip]

when is arco ever trolling

[spice veldt]

i would never

[languid tusk]

mine looks like this

[spice veldt]

I'd go for Infernus + Dumdum

[languid tusk]

had to take seer presence because i wanted empathic evasion

[spice veldt]

don't need Ghost because of empathic evasion
don't need Between the Eyes because it's basically suppression-agnostic anyways

[olive ember]

crit purge is just normal purge build tbh

[coarse osprey]

rolls have gone well so far

[olive ember]

you don't really want to go for the crit aura cuz you won't be able to get AB shriek otherwise

[coarse osprey]

must go get more plasteel

[spice veldt]

Reassuringly Accurate could be nice, but I also always bring Assail as a backup to just throw and regen toughness with Soulstealer

[languid tusk]

at least you want perfect timing talent to boost soulblaze damage

[neat summit]

Nah fam. We cheese 100% uptime shields as long as possible.

[austere steeple]

now that i have all this crit chance i need a assail crit damage build

[neat summit]

100% uptime shields win games

[austere steeple]

i gotta farm materials jeez

[languid tusk]

shield wont save your party from surprise crushers from behind a comically small obstacle you thought there was nothing behind it but surprise 5 crushers

venting shriek brings some useful crowd control to purgatus

[spice veldt]

take the crit talents and True Aim and you're basically gucci for crit assail

[neat summit]

Hahaha had this happen just a few minutes ago actually. Sneak crushers are real

[austere steeple]

what keystone should i go for?

[olive ember]

simply psychically sense them

[languid tusk]

crusher patrols aren't real, they cant hurt you. crusher patrol:

[olive ember]

or grow the third eye on the back of your head

[spice veldt]

if you want to really spam Assail, then EP is the way to go

if you have enough points left over, go into warp siphon

[solar sand]

crusher patrols are fun though

[spice oar]

what do guys think of this beauty?

[neat summit]

Lmao as long as they are visible I’m good. It’s the sneak crusher spawn that gets you

The crusher backspawn that climbs over a few rails, drops into the middle of the party and silently one shots you

[spice oar]

acro im sorry but that looks like a gmod map

[solar sand]

30 stack damage on that gotta be crazy

[spice veldt]

i was snucketh upon

[spice veldt]

like a bullet to my heart

[neat summit]

Factual nonsense just happened

[spice veldt]

like, where did those two crushers come from

[languid tusk]

that looks really clean, are you using nvidia profile inspector to customize the graphical options ?

[bleak tulip]

upstairs

[neat summit]

Had this happen just a few minutes ago

[spice veldt]

redverse actually paid them to sneak up and tumble my rumbles

[spice veldt]

i edited stuff in user_settings.config

[spice oar]

[neat summit]

“What the fuh hit me?”
“It was the crusher that dropped out of nowhere and decided to 360 no scope your butthole”

[spice veldt]

i got sideswiped by two crushers there

it wasn't even an overhead that killed me
