I agree that DS is excellent at carapace and single target, it just does not fit my build/preference

#

and VS, surge, and BB all can deal with carapace at range

unique mist
#

BB's 0.75 carapace modifier

#

"Effective against carapace and flak" my ass

naive imp
#

You can run surge staff or assail for hordes. Then dueling for carapace

slate oasis
#

it should pierce armor. you're exploding their brain why would armor matter

unique mist
#

or voidstrike for both

brazen warren
#

surge, smite ds?

#

VS smite ds

unique mist
#

vs is good at range

#

ds is great at getting mutants

#

and for dealing with carapace in your face

austere steeple
#

swear idk why i even ping the demi god

#

it just makes mfs run straight to him

#

smh

naive imp
#

Surge does way more damage than smite and can lock targets

#

Surge with flurry is super fast. Feel like it’s faster than void, maybe I’m wrong and it’s placebo.

brazen warren
#

void overpenetrates and deals a significant amount of suppression

#

never found surge to be good at hordes personally though

#

3-4 targets per charge attack

#

thats with the smite chain increase too

#

from what I could see anyways

viscid matrix
brazen warren
#

yep, my post was in response to onelove above me there

#

smite is great for control, but not damage

#

maybe if the mob has a sliver of health it will matter but locking down and entire engagement indefinitely is really really strong

I love smite, stunlocking everything is a riot

skateboarding towards shooter packs with smite is funny and effective

Guilty as charged.

Why does killing an elite with assail do not trigger peril joue combustion?

ionic sorrel
#

Did you trigger a peril quell with a talent?

jolly cedar
#

wtf are curios not shared. thats just kinda dum man

ionic sorrel
#

Maybe one day.

long osprey
#

Just using assail to kill elites and they do not spread soul blaze

#

Same if I kill with surge staff

ionic sorrel

Oh, well that's not good.

my two highest dmg games since the patch are on ogryn and psyker, my two least played classes

i want to make a ogryn

When I take Perilous Combustion and kill an elite by assail or surge staff, soulblaze triggers.

Weird that it doesn’t trigger for me, I removed the node that quell on kill, maybe it’s the one doing the bug

primal aurora

#

fr im keeping it forever

#

ooooo is that a good blessing

strong gulch
#

not on void.

#

Yes on trauma, but they don't share a blessing pool.

unique mist
#

I wouldn't say its good on trauma

strong gulch
#

Fire trauma is a thing, but fire void doesn't work that well.

austere steeple
#

awww man

strong gulch
long osprey
#

Ok so I removed the quell on kill node and it trigger soulblaze now

#

Really weird

plucky flax

yeah blazing spirit is nice

unique mist
austere steeple
#

aye

spice veldt
#

though it's more or less what else I'm going to take

plucky flax
#

I think it's good on trauma but anyway... SadgeCry

unique mist

also trauma is still as bad as I remember

Gosh, I wish fire void worked better.

theres just better options

so post 13

I am talking about as bad as it was when I was using a sub 200 stat white version of it while levelling and really not liking it

goodnigth yall

It's a lot tbh

unique mist
#

And as always

#

it is worse than Surge voidstrike

plucky flax
#

Aye and to get the most out of it xbox controller would suck for the flick.

unique mist
#

i use mnk on xbox

#

because you can do that

plucky flax
#

Fun fact trauma is better than voidstrike for melee only modifier.

viscid matrix
viscid matrix
#

ohh

unique mist
#

this is the second time today that happened lol

#

Arc got confused too

strong gulch
#

A high rolled trauma is a different thing than a low rated white trauma.

HOWEVER, not everyone likes trauma and that's cool.

viscid matrix
#

i think im gonna get some sleep 😄 im missreading a bunch of stuff

plucky flax
#

You can't compare surge the blessing to blazing spirit, on 2 different staves.

unique mist
#

well what is the role of trauma

plucky flax
#

They do completely different thing. You can compare blazing spirit on trauma to blazing spirit on voidstrike.

#

It kills everything.

#

(Not monster)

#

Anyway it's a hard staff to play and build.
New players should just stick to voidstrike much easier.

unique mist
#

i find voidstrike kills everything quicker and better lol

strong gulch
#

Well yeah, it's overtuned af right now

leaden pier
#

fellas was the max rating just for the stats of a weapon 360 or 380?

unique mist
#

i took the trauma into damnation and found it too hard to get kills

#

380

Trauma first day of patch
I think other mates were struggling to get kills from me
https://youtu.be/qP0kFOiV6ag

Replicate of my old pre-patch 1.2.0 build with blaze trauma. Voidstrike overtuned getting all the talks but blaze trauma got even more op.
Patch 1.2.0

#

overtuned stuff existing resulting in people setting that as their baseline 😔

#

I don't have any particularly strong opinions for trauma outside of melee maelstrom cuz I just play blitz + melee like I always do lamayo, but its strengths particularly shine in melee mael

kindred lake
#

is the soulblaze worth taking on vent? or should i just go for the 100 - 200 dmg

#

i do have the other soulblaze talent bc i had heard it is p good

viscid matrix
#

and soulblaze is affected by weapon blessings

kindred lake
#

oh i see

#

ok i will keep it then

spice veldt
#

and +warp damage talents, if you're taking some stuff on the right side

kindred lake
#

not at the moment but good to know

viscid matrix
#

tbh the flat 100-200 damage on vent is hot garbage

plucky flax
#

Free damage from screaming like a lunatic?

#

Idk seems op whatthefuck_heresy

#

They should combine both talents into 1
Damage and set them on fire from screaming.

viscid matrix
#

the flat damage is affected by armour, so it does a lot less damage than it says

plucky flax
summer prairie
#

the armor modifiers are all 1 except void shield, it's probably range based falloff

viscid matrix
#

its also that

#

go play with it in the psykanium

#

its just a worse node choice than anything else on the tree

summer prairie
#

It is, but does it do close to 200 to carapace

viscid matrix
#

i dont remember the exact numbers, but pretty sure it was no where near 200

coarse scroll
#

@here guys want to ask, is flurry warp which is blessing that can charge your secondary attack faster work well for purgatus staff which is staff that shoot flame?

long osprey
#

Yes it works well

summer prairie
#

it's fine

coarse scroll
#

so in order for me to turly utilize flurry warp, i need to keep charging secondary attack correct?

summer prairie
#

it's on a timer now, you've a few seconds to do something else before you have to shoot again

viscid matrix
#

just hold secondary down, and click primary when you want to shoot

#

tap quell between primary clicks

slate oasis
#

Yeah charge, blast fire, charge again, blast fire again, repeat

viscid matrix
#

when you tap quell, you drop 15-20 peril instantly, so you can maintain 80-100 indefininatly

summer prairie
#

with purg you barely have enough time to do a full charge before the flurry stack expires

coarse scroll
strong gulch
viscid matrix
summer prairie
#

if you do a short charge you probably have time for that

#

there's a flurry stack icon, so you can experiment

coarse scroll
#

ok noted

strong gulch
#

Yeah, there is a moment between charges before flurry stacks disappear so you can quell a bit.

viscid matrix
#

also sitting between 80 and 100 peril will give you max effect from any buff that scales with peril

#

well 85 is the minimum you need for max effect

jolly cedar
#

What should I change for this sword perkwise?

viscid matrix
#

swap elites to carapace/flak/maniac, your choice which

late night
#

whats optimal way to use lightning

#

blitz

#

charge up and cast and hold?

potent echo
#

I like to charge hold, then release

#

You will push them on their asses

viscid matrix
#

charge secondary and hold, tell your team to focus anything that you lock down

#

release just before you hit 100

late night
#

does it stop working

#

like

#

if you charge

#

its just gated by peril

#

?

viscid matrix
#

when you hit 100, it instantly quells to 85%

#

and stops

late night
#

oh ok

viscid matrix
#

so there is no downside to going all the way to max

potent echo
#

But if you go to max they dont get knocked down

#

I rather release early

strong gulch
#

LMB smite does a quick stagger. RMB for getting the situation under control that needs longer time. if you need to build more peril, or until people's graphics explode.

dry geode
#

What blessings are best for voidstrike staff?

solar sand
#

damn 100 missions to finish all the psyker penances

unique mist
#

the 2nd one is the best combo

#

by far

half turtle
#

i'm trying scrier's gaze someone give me a hot build tip

late night
#

best horde clear melee = devils claw?

solar sand
#

or force mkV

dry geode
solar sand
#

that thats nearly perfect

dry geode
#

yeah

unique mist
#

not optimal base stats but you can roll with it. Run n gun and sprint efficiency are an L imo

dry geode
#

just when i was really getting into my palpatine build too

#

yeah sprint efficiency is gonna go

solar sand
#

a good voidstrike is just so busted though

#

you get into it

dry geode
#

oh yeah

solar sand
#

finally got mine set up like yesterday

dry geode
#

assail is nothing in comparison

solar sand
#

nah

dry geode
#

oh baby

solar sand
#

the hoard clear of this is whats underrated

#

nevermind its insane single target

#

which ignores armor making for easy 2 shots for all non boss enemies

unique mist
dry geode
#

yeah voidstrike is super strong

solar sand
#

havent found surge yet

austere steeple
#

whats warp resistant on staffs?

dry geode
#

peril buildup modifier

#

i believe

austere steeple
#

ah so it dosetn matter that much

dry geode
#

basically

solar sand
#

the difference between a 60% roll and an 80% roll is like 20 peril per shot compared to like 18

#

quell speed varies by like almost 30%, maybe the biggest scaling in a sense

dry geode
#

What perks should voidstrike run?

#

crit?

solar sand
#

crit chance cara/flak

dry geode
#

I have flak

unique mist
#

if you are going surge/nexus, crit and unyielding

#

not flak

dry geode
#

i have t3 transfer/t4 flurry

unique mist
#

it will already oneshot flak enemies on weakspot

dry geode
#

well, the other one is sprint efficiency

unique mist
#

for warp/nexus, go crit and...hmm...

#

carapace

#

for dealing with maulers and ogryns

dry geode
#

thats the other guys

unique mist
#

oh

dry geode
unique mist
#

sorry

#

flak and carapace then

dry geode
#

np! thanks for helping!

unique mist
#

its just not as strong of a dps option as nexus/surge so you'll need to optimise for non boss clear

#

surge/nexus is such a strong option it can already oneshot ogryns on a surge proc without +carapace so unyielding is the better pick

dry geode
#

i just yolo rolled this bad boy and am trying to make the best of it

#

that def is my long term goal

unique mist
#

just make sure you are stingy with your melk coins and check him every day for blessings

#

i spent a lot of plasteel upgrading 365+ voidstrikes to gold to get Surge

dry geode
#

Oh yeah

#

I spent mine on the block ranged blessing

#

but i think you can stack them across characters?

strong gulch
unique mist
#

i think I got through 10 staffs to gold and another 8 to blue

strong gulch
#

I've played since beta and never got surge on void. RIP

dry geode
#

What blessings are good for the illsi sword?

#

Im in grimdark vegas tonight

solar sand
#

rampage riposte probably

#

this one is kinda fun

#

back to back crits on charged attacks

viscid matrix
#

thats not a charge attack, thats the special boosted attack

potent echo
viscid matrix
#

tbh i use deflector on my Illisi, makes reviving people easier, and its an emergency weapon at most

#

i never use it as my main weapon

unique mist
#

slaughterer+rampage sounds fun

coarse scroll
#

hi guys, does warp siphons work for telekine shield dome where you can cast 2 sheild consecutively?

unique mist
#

Yes

#

fixed next patch

dry geode
#

you mean 3?

viscid matrix
#

right now, it gives 100% coodlown reduction when you have 1 warp charge, so you can chain kill specialists/elites and drop a shield between each kill

dry geode
#

ohh

coarse scroll
#

maybe i can go for telekine shield dome build with warp siphons. but i love the telekine shield wall that can stop any charging wolf and mutant attempt

solar sand
viscid matrix
#

Dome is really good against Beast of Nurgle, it prevents the vomit from anywhere in dome

dry geode
#

wall can work too but its tougher

coarse scroll
#

which one you think more useful and better when play in damnation? shield wall or shield dome?

solar sand
#

i run dome

#

the 360 coverage makes all the difference

#

when you can still be shot in the back the wall isnt nearly as effective

viscid matrix
#

stupid people learn to stand in dome, they dont learn to stand behind walls

humble star
#

completely depends on your team and how good you guys are at positioning too

coarse scroll
#

even when being charged by wolf or mutant?

dry geode
#

I use walls to break mutant grabs

still hearth
#

Dogs and mutants can be one shot easily

solar sand
#

also dodged easily

viscid matrix
still hearth
#

But I find both shields are niche

dry geode
#

the real answer is to run TWO psykers

still hearth
#

And shriek with soulblaze just offers so much space anyway

solar sand
#

plus the dome gives nice defense, the regen is big, and the 50%dr if the dome dies is nice too

coarse scroll
#

ok, if i go for shield dome build, which passive ability more usuful? the one that give 10% more damage to elite when in coherancy or the one that can reduce the ability cooldown?

solar sand
#

10% damage is pretty huge

#

but so is 10% cdr

still hearth
#

It's 17.5% cdr

solar sand
#

warp siphon you dont need the cdr

still hearth
#

10% damage only works on elites rn

solar sand
#

like its bugged to be more or?

still hearth
#

So definitely CDR most of the time

#

Yes

humble star
still hearth
#

It doesn't remove the old aura

humble star
#

CDR all the way

still hearth
#

So you get 10% + 7.5%

solar sand
#

oh then yeah with that info

#

cdr for sure

coarse scroll
#

so extra ooldown is better even with warp siphons??

#

cooldown*

still hearth
#

Yep

#

They're additive I'm pretty sure

solar sand
#

crit also kinda nice if your build calls for it

coarse scroll
#

ok then i take seer's presence

solar sand
#

also these two are pretty nice for toughness

coarse scroll
#

mine is more focus on pergatus staff as i love to burn the horde and use brain rupture against tough enemy, does soulblaze will be more benefit for me?? soulblaze can work from pergatus kill or have to be work from brain burst kill?

solar sand
#

you want these 2 for purgatus, rest is kinda whatever

viscid matrix
#

I prefer the bonus damage against elite aura over the 10% cool-down, but I also grab the 5% on elite kill above it

coarse scroll
solar sand
#

yeah

still hearth
#

Yes

coarse scroll
#

ok noted

viscid matrix
#

Yes, they are great in every build

solar sand
#

the 4 stacks on elite, and the spread on kill

still hearth
#

Wildfire is less OP but it especially helps warp Siphon and can sometimes help kill some enemies at long distances, along with dealing some damage to enemies you didn't blaze

coarse scroll
#

for the pergatus staff, which stats is more important, the damage and burn or the cloud radius? currently i have gold pergatus staff with 71% damage and 67% burn but only has 40% cloud radius

viscid matrix
#

Soulblaze is amazing, it does decent damage, and is affected by weapon blessings and warp damage boosts on talent tree
It’s never a bad pick

viscid matrix
#

It doesn’t matter

still hearth
#

Idk if damage is full dump anymore since they buffed it

viscid matrix
#

It’s alright, but everything else is better

still hearth
#

But I think the difference in damage numbers are still small

#

Not really

#

You need like 12 stacks to do more than direct flames

coarse scroll
#

just now i roll another staff that have only 59% burn and 79% cloud radius, thats are way better?

viscid matrix
#

6 stacks does 300ish damage minimum, single blast from hit with staff is not that good in comparison

still hearth
#

You want 76% burn and 80% cloud

still hearth
coarse scroll
still hearth
#

It's very different damages

still hearth
#

If not just take whatever you have

coarse scroll
still hearth
#

Alright wait to roll until 30

#

The stats increase way more once you max out

coarse scroll
#

i see. understood. i try to save up more so resources first

still hearth
#

You can use the lower burn one for now it is only a difference on bosses

viscid matrix
primal radish
#

whats the difference in stamina regen vs psykler and vet? i know vet is worse but is it just the regen rate or delay or both?

solar sand
#

man how do people mess up melee only modifier, shits so easy

still hearth
#

Iirc Psyker has the same regen as Vet but faster delay

#

1.25s for Vet, 0.5s for Psyker

solar sand
#

hows the special damage when built right? better than chainsword special?

viscid matrix
#

obscurus is worst force sword, you want a Deimos or Illisi instead

primal aurora
solar sand
#

also got this one

#

but i imagine then end up being worse this

viscid matrix
#

Deimos is 2nd best single target sword we have access too

The H2 does a lot of damage

#

The combo for Deimos is L1, H2 repeat

primal aurora
viscid matrix
#

I did say deimos is 2nd best

primal aurora
# viscid matrix I did say deimos is 2nd best

My issue with Deimos is L1, H2 not viable vs carapace enemies. Also I have very bad flashbacks to numerous times I got shafted because my sword stuck in enemies for fancy special attack animeation.

viscid matrix
#

It’s viable, just not as good as IV that’s just stab stab

spark fractal
viscid matrix
#

Eh, melee with DS IV is probably the best way to deal with carapace

spark fractal
#

brain burst, voidstrike, surge, trauma, smite (it'll cc them at least)

viscid matrix
#

ds IV can 2shot a crusher with heavy headshots

spark fractal
#

the problem is crushers are usually only problems when they're surrounded by a mixed horde, which you don't particularly want to approach with a dueling sword, void or surge can deal with them safely at range

solar sand
#

hmmm, wonder if i should get this incase disrupt starts working better

viscid matrix
spark fractal
primal aurora
#

IV also allows you to feel like a matador, while striking running mutants.

solar sand
#

i guess i havent really tried

#

damage wise you could but

#

the warp damage/kills scaling for toughnes regeneration

viscid matrix
primal aurora
#

Psyker doesn't really play well with revolvers, though that's depend on preferences and your aim. Voidstrike staff in general outperforms it in almost everything (at least for now).

viscid matrix
solar sand
#

ideally i wanted a nice hand cannon for a quick to whip out and 1 shot for the DD stack beyond melee range

viscid matrix
near wyvern
#

Don't have the descriptions and explanation in yet but basically the greatest weakness of purge is range packs that sit outside of your reach and crushers.

Assail eats up the ranged units and with RMB having a decent range to deal with snipers all you are left is crushers which you can easily kill with DS4 and Deimos. You don't need the increased shard regen because you do not sit and spam assails.

Flame first around the crushers to kill all the ads while LMB staggering and dodging their attacks. Once everything else is dead, switch to melee and finish it off. That uncanny strike also starts to make those blaze ticks kick in once you start your melee.

BB is currently such an inefficient and a horrible way of dealing with crushers.

viscid matrix
#

12 cleave and ignoring armour with massive damage and guarenteed knockdown is broken

solar sand
#

the cleave is the silly thing to me

#

insane single and insane hoard clear

viscid matrix
#

It does 1600 base damage on a crit headshot which you can guarantee with True Aim, which makes everything hit with that projectile crit

humble star
#

It's ok, nerf is coming.

#

Still probably going to be nuts though

viscid matrix
#

The nerf is barely touching it

primal blade
#

i have not tried any of the guns yet cuz the voidstrike has been such a dirty pleasure of mine not for the power reasons just cuz of the audio visual side
honestly if we had a bolt pistol i would probably try guns but am fine with being a migraine only psyker x3

viscid matrix
#

Same with assail, it needed a nerf. Instead it’s getting buffed

humble star
#

elite HP changes and no more crusher oneshots, not huge but also not small

#

assail changes will absolutely do fuckall

primal aurora
viscid matrix
primal aurora
#

I guess just don't get psyker with revolver.

viscid matrix
#

Being able to do 3.2k damage with a single crit headshot with no buffs is broken, and void can do more than that

primal blade
#

honestly why do we worry about things being "broken" especially when it comes to powers of the warp

if things can be used to be super powerful.. good now its up to the person to actually use it

#

i've seen Assail not work for some people

#

not because it was the fault of assail but jsut the person not mixing with assail

humble star
primal blade
viscid matrix
#

Assail used properly is on par with most weapons, i was hoping for the nerf to actually do something, instead it’s secondary does double it’s current damage, and it’s primary can still murder everything

humble star
#

If you can't make assail work then something is wrong with you

primal aurora
viscid matrix
#

We do edge our peril to hear what chaos has to say

primal blade
#

i did notice in recent times that it went from
psyker being arguably the most usleess to veterans being the most useless for multiple roles at once
and the same happened with zealot and ogryn but those two kinda managed to co-exist

primal aurora
primal blade
viscid matrix
primal blade
#

i said arguably because again there are fringe cases that exist that one could argue for
would they be a good argument is another story

still hearth
#

Veteran was the biggest outlier

#

Now it's Vet who's the weakest

primal aurora
#

Zealots are popular now.

viscid matrix
#

Vets had it too good for too long

still hearth
#

Their current state is sad

#

But yeeah they were super busted

primal blade
#

at least we won't have veterans stealing our BBs anymore :p mostly cuz no one uses BB

slow raven
#

now you can use DD and vets can steal that

#

although i barely see any vets anymore

viscid matrix
primal aurora
zinc tartan
#

I wanna switch to void/assail. What stats on a void staff am I looking for?

viscid matrix
#

Assail has far too much ammo and ammo regen

primal blade
#

i know 2 vets and one is autistic the other well... is what i would call an enigma

#

barely know the guy outside of what we do together

slow raven
#

one thing i don't like about DD is how it seems to select the same targets that a vet would prioritize... shooters and elites

#

so if you play with a counterfire vet youre competing for the same kills

what is DD?

yeah I might lose it sometimes, but since I've got the talent that gives 30s duration and double stacks on weakspot, I'm not too fussed
plus the game seems to prioritize closer targets, so once I close in I get one after the other

Scrier's Gaze ?
can't you in theory be permanently in Scrier's Gaze and permanently receive

+30% damage and +20% crit
+30% finesse damage (with precognition)
+20% movement speed (warp speed)
-20% peril reduction (reality anchor)
+20% toughness reduction (endurance)

or is there a hard limit to scrier's gaze

how long can a single Scrier's gaze last in that case

Hey Guys Question if your going for the shield ability which is better dome or non-dome?

#

I use dome a lot but what does the other one do?

viscid matrix

im 2 levels short of 30

random obsidian
#

Also Just Checking if you are going for the Vent ability is damage better than burn or is burn better?

viscid matrix
viscid matrix
# primal blade im 2 levels short of 30

tbh i would drop the 3 middle nodes at the start, grab the crit toughness, cause you will be critting often, dump the assail upgrades since those are not too useful, and then go down into DD

#

also you dont really need the 20% move speed in scriers unless you are a melee build

random obsidian

Is it vent or push? Can't remember name but its on the left

but i am a filthy horde clearer

is update 14 online?

no

my mods were active so no

probably coming on thursday

dang, so assail horde clear probably gonna be nerfed

look at the numbers

its a buff

glad meadow
#

i don't like to use the middle capstone though

#

i like my scry with 100% uptime

viscid matrix
#

assail change is just a strait buff

#

1 shard for 200 is still killing trash, 2 shards for 400 will kill everything that is unarmoured, 3 shards for 600 willl take care of flak armoured

the secondary can 1shot everything except flak helms and more armoured

#

pretty sure all those damage numbers are with empowered active

stable silo
#

il empower your active

summer prairie
#

the secondary is slow, we'll see how it feels like.

viscid matrix
summer prairie
#

when it's slow enough, it doesn't matter that it does more damage than before when you can just use your voidstrike or whatever instead

wooden silo
#

While i do think assail might be a bit over the top now, i hope they will take there time and make it something that is good but not just the soloution to almost anything except carapace.

past brook
#

that's more a result of whipping out the dueling saber before the assail shard can hit, since it's got rending active and assail shards work like the zealot knives

wooden silo
#

yeah, it is still maybe a bit silly.

viscid matrix
#

new assail secondary is gonna do more than that

past brook
#

doing that with secondary is a bit trickier, the throw anim is somewhat difficult to predict and the shard seems to fly a lot faster

summer prairie
#

that's the kind of gameplay assail should be though, you switch to it quickly, throw it, switch back

wooden silo
#

To be honest, what i see in that video at least shows a bit of skill switching between things and delivering accurate strikes. Could just be that i am pretty shit though Shrug

in that case, just make it work like zealot knives 🤷‍♂️

Yeah the Mk4 heavies just do way more damage overall

What is the best melee weapon to be paired with voidstaff?

dueling sword + voidstaff feels pointless since void staff already kills elites

You can go Chainsword, Illisi, Antax with BM, devil claw

All those are good horde clear

I mean, as long as you swing on head-height, you're golden. kappa

Bit unfortunate that the dump is on Mobility instead of Cleave, but 80 Finesse & 80 Pen is pretty neat.

is it better if I change run and gun and upgrade warp nexus to IV.

Or would it be more optimal to change out run and gun and then change out one of the perks?

# ornate hamlet what the hell is wounds

Wounds are the seperators in your health bar. They basically govern how much semipermanent health you lose every time you get downed as well as how many times you are allowed to get downed before you die outright

full bane
#

What kind of moveset do y’all think 2h force sword will have when it comes out in 20 years? I’d love something similar to the Brett Longsword from VT2

still hearth

Give it the Longsword moves

But swap the way the moves work

Like the hammers

#

So HOW exactly does surge work? Are you wanting to drag across the screen?

#

Like sometimes it chains and forks. Sometimes it doesn’t.

#

I don’t understand why and when it happens.

thorn cedar
#

I also don't understand it anymore

still hearth
#

It will chain to 1 enemy by default

thorn cedar
#

I've fired it off at targets and turned around to push a burster and it suddenly exploded from my zap

still hearth
#

Dealing like 20% damage to that target.

#

And yes

thorn cedar
#

Even though it was behind me

naive imp
still hearth
#

It does the damage only at the end

#

And towards the enemy you're looking at

still hearth
#

Only the final tick does actual damage

#

And it will fire where you're looking at the end

thorn cedar
#

Pretty whack

still hearth
#

Also Surge does random damage

primal radish
#

how do you get surge to stun muties consistently? mine arent always stunning

still hearth
#

It fluctuates around like 50 damage for no apparent reason

still hearth
#

Idk if its rending or something but its very reliable if someone else hits them

primal radish
#

oh..

still hearth
#

Otherwise it usually takes 2-3 charges to start stunning them

#

They also seem to get stunned by walls even without the bonus option if you surge them

#

Like the dome

undone carbon
#

what perk do i change? unyielding -> crit chance?

still hearth
#

Specialist to Carapace or Maniac prob

#

Crit works too but once you have Warp Nexus 4 it's not as big of a bump

ornate hamlet
#

so is good to have 1 curio with wounds

still hearth
ornate hamlet
#

oh

still hearth
#

1 curio can be fine though

ornate hamlet
#

ok

But generally you want to stack HP or Toughness

ornate hamlet

take it psyker is just health/tough

still hearth

Since they make you die less

yeah thats what im doing atm

One stamina curio is also an option

But I have stamina on my dueling sword because ops

running 2 15% toughnesses and a 19% health

but yeah, DR vs things that always deal 100% toughness (bombers, flamers, snipers) suck but since snipers also deal a chunck of HP damage the DR swings back to usefull for them
