yeah
alot of people, me included think stormtrooper should affect all their guns, its stupid to be exclusive
especially when theres no autogun exclusive buffs to balance it out
its not a perfect helbore 3 but im happy with it
peak
sometimes i do go back to the good ol kantreal 12 if i need to give my finger a break from holding down charge so much
cries in laspistol finger
Important Fashontide poll. Which psyker would you think could carry harder?
"Knife"
"carry"
pick one
knife
Knife was for zoomy speedrun stuff. I do have a proper force sword.
krieg psyker
i want to make a decent staff but i think i spent too much making kickbacks and clubs...
what is kickback
oggy shotgun
oh
not to talk about non psyker stuff but i killed a sniper from 70 meters away with one
well gues you have to spam a few damnation with that
to get some resource for psykers
seriously the lethal range on the kickback now is stupid
yeah... but i wanna play psyker and i cant spam damnations without a decent staff
dont spam damnation with it then
im trying out a smite build
spam it with the kickback you invested in lol
what did you build the kickback up for'
I have a weird-ass melee build I bring into damnation that uses the mkiv saber and scrier's gaze
because you need resources
Grab a halfway decent voidstrike and build it for crit
and for resources you need damnation ready
3k plasteel might be enough if hadron doesnt hate me
300k should get a few staffs worth bricking
3k plasteel
hadron dont hate you
pick one
alright brunt fuck me up
i think you should use the kickback until you get more resources
2 really good ones and 3 decent ones... that's mildly bad i think
what do they look like
actually this spread is not super impressive but its not bad
the damage
the other one has a worse damage roll wtf
brunt you bastard
this is the only one with decent rolls
would say charge rate looks terrible
charge rate is not a giant range
warp resistence unnecessary
actaully, depend on your ability maybe the warp resistance isnt so bad
you guys think I should pick this up from melk's or nah
brunt stole all my damn money on this one
Imagine caring that much about charge rate when warp flurry exists
why would you use warp flurry
really wish I could buy Plasteel with Diamantine
i dream of a day where we get a diamantine spend
Because you can. Especially when your charge rate rolls low(er)
im at like 12k its so useless after a certain point while Plasteel is much more valuable
It's not as if surge just doesn't work by itself
so you lose out on a blessing slot to compensate for your charge rate
wouldnt you want something like warp nexus
or transfer peril
??? you can of course use those too
I was just cracking a joke about it not being the only option. it's not that deep
swap barrage with surge
I'm not about to try and change anyone's mind about the voidstrike meta
I will reinforce that metaslaving is boring as shit
i dont have voidstrike blessings prepped lol i was hoping to make a base
what else is it really going to use
i dont need an optimal one even to play damnation
This entire conversation is a subjective take.
You wanting to use warp nexus or transfer is perfectly valid
as is the use of warp flurry
That's all there is to it
idk
one day melk will sell me a blessing i want
warp flurry just feel kind of useless
i dont think i've even seen a staff in his shop for a week
like, run and gun useless
for you
I like my meta stuff
I don't trust people who don't qualify their statements
what does qualify your statements mean
Good thing I'm not asking you to trust me
the concept of something being boring is inherently subjective
i dont think you need to point it out
subjectivity is implied, but it helps to put markers in your statements to indicate it
but?
Because I don't really care what anyone thinks about my personal unwillingness to staple my enjoyment to one specific combination of things
if someone is asking for advice, the reasonable assumption is they're trying to optimize for meta-level performance
otherwise, there's no reason to ask for advice in the first place
Hey, does anyone know the ballpark of how much % bonus warp damage you can get just from the talent tree? I'm thinking it's probably like...30%?
honestly i just wanted people to be there while brunt ruined my life
cause sometimes i ask about whats good on a weapon that isnt meta, and people will say "why use that, use [insert meta weapon here]"
and thats really fucking annoying when people do that
basically putting "...in my opinion" and whatnot in your statements
oh
The fact that I have to do that with everything I say is pretty asinine, but fine.
because there have been a few people that have come here ranting about people running certain builds or wanting them to avoid using certain weapons
Which I did not do even once
but I don't know you
I'm not doing this
i mean technically he's the one who suggest warp flurry for voidstrike
because it has low charge rate
so hes not the one that gatekeeping people from using certain weapons
what even started this arguement
but rather the one that try to salvage it
someone said meta boring
Doesn't matter, the arguement is over
I think
well
initially its whether you want warp flurry on your voidstrike
if it has too low charge rate
I would argue there are only two Good blessing combinations for void staff currently
Meta is boring but if someone wants optimization then answer the question
or you better off just get a new voidstrike
surge+nexus and transfer peril+flurry
Does an Illisi with blazing spirit/bloodthirsty seem like a meme or actually a fun/decent thing to do?
it's garbage
a few hours ago a guy did exactly that

its fun
meme tier
it's a pale shadow of a former glory
only the first enemy you hit gets that guaranteed crit from bloodthirsty
Wait really
yep
that fucking blows yikes
Is it not for the entire first swing?
I thought crits were on a per-swing basis
interesting
i was under this impression as well
which is why the original implementation of Bloodthirsty was far superior - guaranteed crits for 5s
someone in here said they tested and only the first enemy hit was getting the crit
That honestly sounds like a bug lmao
I don't remember who, though
i guess i could test
maybe they meant first swing and not first hit?
but i'll check if i have a bloodthirsty sword
yes please ๐
Well if thats meme tier whats actually Illisi BIS. I assume slaughterer and what, deflector? (executor if you take shield)?
I prefer slaughterer + deflector
im p sure ive also seen ppl test bloodthrists and its one crit
I do unstable + deflector cause i don't melee as much these days
I use Illisi with Surge staff
a lot of the time i just pull it out for a sec against mutants
it's the full swing

yeah, I'm seeing full swing too
still not great
and Bloodthirsty itself has a 5s activation window
so you can't queue it up and hold onto the charge
if I want to melee mutants, I'd use my dueling sword
i like the peril stroke

stroke my peril till I burst
Stop falling over, its the auric malestrom for gods sake 
Fizzmodeus enjoyer spotted
pretty kills everything already in the grinder, anything recommended to switch?
would you want riposte and precog? or is that overkill
ok he-man
right?
for the honor of the emprah 
almost got a he-man-meets-thundercats thing going
I wanted to get a longer grip, but the game doesn't have any
lol yeah, there's some sword of omens there too
at least not that the weapon customization mod allows
are you keeping uncanny strike or switching it over to riposte?
Uncanny Strike is considered mandatory on all dueling swords
Mandatory eh?
unless you don't care about optimizing your performance
I got bored and homebrewed a new artillery-style force staff. Do you think this staff could fit in the current lineup??
sure, we could use a staff of big boom
looking promising
This slaps pretty hard on a soulblaze build
keeping
i already have a riposte uncanny
im trying precog with the uncanny
It's modeled to be a wildly perilous cross between the trauma staff and a lesser-AoE Brain Rupture. Charging the staff would show an arc trajectory, like a nade.
I've been wanting Sienna's fireball staff since day 1 of Darktide
maybe you can in the extended extended weapon customization mod
I've seen some pretty cursed shit made with that
A mix between trauma and voidstrike it'd be
haven't tried it myself though
that's what I'm playing with
oh
the combinations have to be manually allowed in the config file for the mod
it's all very hardcoded
They really need to start pumping out new weapons
is surge staff still bugged?
Especially staves
what new staves do we want?
or did the hotfix correct that
Fireball, Beam, AoE DoT are ones for starters
I would indeed like a pergatus bolt staff
Not sure an aoe dot staff would be different enough from the purgatus thrower though
All the Sieanna staves from VT2 can be copy pasted to Darktide
You can place the DoT down then switch to melee or a blitz
Yeah there's a lot of overlap they could dip into
Much more flexible
Oh you mean a persistent area dot not a dot application
ok that makes much more sense
Like little mini flame grenade zones
Yea, like the firestorm staff or what's it called in VT2
Yeah that'd be sick
coruscation staff
That one
Fatshark is dropping the ball hard again, all these new players and they are most likely seen everything the game has to offer by now
Girl, it takes time to develop content
Theres a shitload of unreleased stuff in the files
Yeah cuz they had to fix everything around it for a while
The unreleased stuff is poised for updates, that's why it's there at all
they did ALL of this with vermintide AND vermintide 2. it may take a coupe years, but i gurantee itll be a great game when they polish it
I'll be the first one to call them hacks, but I'm also willing to let them hack in peace
at least they're trying
give me a two-handed force glaive melee weapon please
give ogryn any 2 handed melee im begging
even if its just the crushers rebar hammer
what psyker weapons can we expect to see in the future? Idk warhammer lore
almost makes me upset that the staff melee special doesn't do good damage
With console version released they'll hopefully start releasing new stuff, they should or this game will begin stagnating and rotting again.
Fitting considering both their tide games have Nurgle.
I'm shocked they don't have one but also I feel like it'd be thematically overpowered
fukin idiot orgyn blocking firing line AND get lost
i swear every orgyn player reflect their own IQ
Augh it's beautiful
I would do shameful, illegal things for Ogryn to get any kind of 2h
This just means we'll get it eventually
There's no reason to put assets in the game ahead of them existing if there's no intention for them to eventually exist
You don't know the half of it
There is stuff in there since release that is yet to be released
Yeah I full expect this is just them trying to set up cleaner updates for the future.
Again, we need to consider how scuffed everything was at launch. This doesn't excuse things but it does explain why the actual content rollout has been so unimpressive.
Having to divert so much of their energy to baseline shit for so long sorta screwed the whole cadence up
I didn't quite like the continuous beam for the VT2 staff, but something hard-hitting like a damn spartan laser would be incredible
And as we know, they're historically bad at this sorta thing
but they DO eventually get there.
oh man, now I'm almost tempted to see just how high I can get the damage on staff melee...
LMAO
They didn't even release the full amount of stuff on release that they promised, it took a few months for them to actually put out the amount of weapons that they cited in the description for release.
go scrier's gaze + warp charges
They did buff that didn't they
Bro a force spear bro. You trying to get me hard dude?
too late, amirite?
does the deimos still out perform the illisi in the current patch?
I thought that was gonna be smite tbh. Dont know how to feel about how that turned out
and illisi for horde/mixed horde ye?
What makes the other swords competitive to the deimos? Doesn't the deimos light attack deal much more dmg than the other models?
Illisi has more cleave but deimos has great L H L H combo
the first light only
Illisi is for horde clear. Deimos is for single target deletion, same with Dueling Swords.
The stabs are super good but you gotta chain properly
the number that you see on the stat card only remarks on the damage value of the first attack of the respective light/heavy combo
Ahh, that's good to know TY. Are there any swords with an exceptionally strong special?
which becomes very uninformative when different attacks have different stats
hmm I don't know anymore, since they tweaked the deimos/obscurus special and I'm pretty sure the illisi's as well
at least in terms of use-case, you do want to spam the illisi's special if you can afford the peril and space
i hate grimoire picker in damnation
Illisi is a budget power sword and you cant get stuck
use the illisi like the psword, in essence
fukin idiots
You can actually click the different chain attacks in the damage table and it'll show the damage stats for those certain attacks
Oh, does the khaleesi special cleave??
ye, it's essentially the same as the psword special
That's great to know
they have different armour damage modifiers nowadays though I believe
What needs done to make this work? Should I just upgrade warp nexus to a higher tier and replace unarmoured with maniacs? Or should it be flak?
ye, though stuff in the stat cards like Damage/Stagger Cleave Distribution of the 'Cleave Targets' stat modifier only shows the cleave value of the first attack in each combo unless you consult an external resource
Wonder why they applied such heavy slowdown to powersword activation when you can basically sprint while activating the force sword
tbf psword's current design makes it lean very heavily on its activation
i love them
it's a sign that they're based
Yeesh, idk, I think those are good upgrade options but I wouldn't settle on that as a forever-staff
illisi's special doesn't have as much offense currently and doesn't have the pcycler blessing among other things, but you don't have weights in your boots
i do like the differentiation in design, so there's that
Because the power sword is a beast in melee, it's downside is the lack of mobility.
If it didn't have those disadvantages veteran would unironically be the best melee class solely because of powersword.
My current staff is base rating 198, I have been really scratching by on my psyker...lol
like old powersword ๐
i remember those days
cutting entire rooms in half
Basically yea, best ranged AND melee
the days of 3 activations by default and infinite cleave
power sword got buffed this patch and it feels insane
god bless america
like obv not as good as it was back when you could swing 7 times
but it feels very strong
having very good hordeclear (including against bruisers esp with brutal momentum) and being able to dink down maulers/crushers
Guys i need a good assail build, do you have any?
the mk6 push into light 4 feels amazing on crushers
what do we think of ideal builds/blessing pair for bloodthirsty illisi though?
the thing is part of the problem with psword is u didnt have other horde clear options
now u do
interested in a melee psyker build with bloodthirsty at the forefront
apparently not at all ๐
so its main upsides are:
shitting on bruisers
good single target
good activated stagger
instead of its main upsides being:
one of a handful of the good weapons in the game
the dclaw is real
what a god awful period of the game that was
DClaw is clutch, parrying ANY melee attack for free is huge
yeah glad they fixed it quickly ๐
parrying monstros is insane
Correction, the overall rating is actually 189, and it was a force staff ๐ this got me to lvl 30...
Watching ragers suicide themselves by ballerina dancing on you as their head flies off will never get old

and now the meta psword loadout is more dependent on hitting heads and whatnot
for brutal momentum/push attack l4 combo
instead of like, not caring in the slightest and all u really had to do was swing in the general direction of a bad guy
My psyker has been neglected to oblivion 
PLEASE I NEED A GOOD ASSAIL BUILD
take true aim and empowered psionics
Lol. Do you want to use shield or vent?
antax
If you have the "Rending Shockwave" blessing, Assail pairs very well with this Trauma staff build https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OncfyGREU5o&t=854s&ab_channel=RealAsianRobot
Welcome to "Warhammer 40,000: Darktide - Best Trauma Staff Psyker Build Guide - Unleash Devastating Debuffs!" In this guide, we delve deep into the world of Darktide to bring you the ultimate Trauma Staff Psyker build that will empower you to unleash devastating debuffs and conquer the hordes of enemies.
๐ฅ Key Highlights:
Learn the optimal skil...
wich ones better?
depends on if you what you want to do. For me it varies on if I want to use a FS with deflector or not. Because then shield feels redundant.
Feel thatz a choice on your part
Can I use brain rupture instead of brain burst for the monstronum penance?
i use shield
didn't clear nearly as quickly
I still need that one just ran the Ogryn one to hit 4 elites in a row with grenade box and I had to turn off all talents cause the game doesnt count the new nade box as the same
Who be posting Darktide Youtuber Template Face thumbnails??!
hope the Brain Burst one aint bugged too
I did, worked for me
Uhh, I think that was me. Is that a no-no? It just automatically embedded with the link
Hahaha jk jk, just my own personal rule. You can watch whichever you like, just i find faceless guides preferable
Trauma is the ground exploding staff yeah?
Would anyone be down for helping me with monstronum?
I always mix trauma and void in my brain
That the kill monster with 90% on your own?
Void is the straight-line bazooka. Trauma is the ground splodey yeah. Trauma has a really good blessing that applies up to 40% brittleness on charged attack
Yessir, in a private match only.
Im down to help but need 2 more, im playing my ogryn now too so i can tank if needed
thanks guys all who helped me with the build
Sending friend code in DM now.
Anyone else willing to assist with monstronum? I would be down to help others with it too.
"Ez" and "DH" should only be in the same sentence when saying "DH is an ez way to wipe"
lol with 12 stamina, 55% block efficiency and deflector i can block 30 gunners for almost 10 seconds
and peril block
Ogryn with shield = DH is fucked.
Why take telekine shield when you can BE the telekine shield
exactly
Would really appreciate help with monstronum if 2 more are down for it, gonna check the lfg tab to see if I can find +2. I have a lvl 30 shield ogryn I could help with afterwards too.
what do i do with this thing? Powderburn and idk crit hit dmg to like maniac i guess?
is assail still the best blitz? Also did void get nerfed and if so what's the best staff rn?
I think assail is in a pretty strong place, and the other blitzes are still perfectly viable in their own right
what exactly did they nerf for assail? is it just lower damage across the board or did it also get nerfed vs flak?
void got a -12.8% damage reduction, and had its armour damage modifier against carapace lowered from 100% to 75%
shoot
its nerf/buffed. primary is less good at horde clear and the special is BETTER at single target killing
The base damage of Assail's LMB was reduced from 250 to 200
its ADMs are the same as far as I can tell, though I didn't really test it extensively
probably still 75% against Flak, which is still fine
left-click spam is less effective, but still clears weak hordes. Right-click now deals more dmg and rewards you for being more deliberate
ty
it still has the ammo economy to be spammed so go ham with it
what do you reckon is the best staff now that void's been nerfed?
i don't really use staffs so I have no idea
but the nerf to void seems pretty minor to me
from 765 base damage to 675
or -12.8% damage
Someone please escort this heretic to the veteran channel
don't worry I just spam assail instead
the caparace nerf is what's messing with my build
I was testing builds in the meat grinder and unticked quick shards. I ran a map and forgot to retick that node. I never even noticed until after the fact.
The economy is bonkers.
After leveling up a bit brainburst psyker with warp charges giving less peril generation make it feel a lot better
oooo noooooo, guess youll just have to kill them like god intended,
with a dueling sword
uncanny go brrrrr
that is true
im so whelmed by gunker with scrier
venting shriek just gives so much more value and cc
what is so whelming about it
Funny fire sword
i feel like vet, but better and faster 
is what i might say if i ever played vet
vet is Zzzzzzzz
the crit chance and +finesse buffs can be interesting with a certain weapon that has long crit strings and good finesse
why throw smokes when you can just abuse empathic evasion
yea but that just makes you vet adjacent
i want to trivialize the entire game with creeping flames
vets are dripless and don't have duelling swords
here's an ideal showcase (15 DD stacks and AI turned off), but crit strings on the columnus are interesting https://streamable.com/h56i2e
there's True Aim at work, but 42.5% crit chance is attainable (20% from scriers, +7.5% base, +5% node, +5% perk, +5% aura)
what kind of a weirdo fills the peril bar backwards smh
also lmao
so roughly 1-2 normal shots followed by a 4-shot crit string on average for the columnus with max crit chance attainable
what was the overall dps from that
true aim is a well thought out talent
plogryns have ~66k hp and it took 10 seconds, so 6.6k DPS
tbf the IAGs have good weakspot and crit multipliers against unyielding in particular
so it might not extrapolate as well to the other armour types
(well they're good against all of the armour types, but they're both the highest against unyielding among the armour types I think?)
i lied it was maniac that I was thinking of
yeah that explains why even a relatively unoptimized one shits all over muties
i can reach 4.1k dps in meat grinder without 25% unyielding with laspistol, but i can actually get it to fire faster while in a game than i can in the meatgrinder so the dps is higher than that in a real mission
i dunno why that is
when in doubt, latency
interesting
Its the power of the warp obv
+10% ordo dockets +10% ordo dockets +10% ordo dockets
90% of rejects quit right before they hit the 379 force sword
โ๏ธ
380 with the wrong dump stat
380 with damage at 60%
Every psyker I've played with since the newest patch has been using smite. Is it really that much better now?
dont worry, hadron will make sure to brick it if the stats are good
smite is really good but its so boring
I think it's in a great place, but I've personally seen a great mix of psykers using all blitzes
except brain burst
BB too slow for current patch................................................
Is there any difference between charging and locking on brainburst other that the obvious that are you can change who you target and the lock is lost when the enemy die?
You can pre charge the RMB BB
But it's the same if you hit as soon as you have it charge if you already have someone targeted
ya
Huh
I guess am just precharging just to make sure the enemies don't die while am locking on them
I expected to have any difference like charge time or damage but no
I use bb plenty it's fine, not good or great just fine.
Rmb used to have an additional charge cost and time for BB, but I think all additional costs for rmb have been removed
Assail is a crutch, and BB handles snipers better.
Yeah you don't use it 25% or more of the match like Assail, which was having people only use it all match.
People who need crutches, need crutches.
BB could probably still use a little love. I've had several Damnation games where it feels like I can never complete a BB before the zealot or vet annihilate everything in the room
They should make it have a chance to crit.
That said, I also think BB is still in a VIABLE place right now.
Never heard of anyone enjoy using crutches either.
Get blasted right in the armpit.
Psyker seems like the class that has the most things to learn for what it seems
Is the duelling sword good vs hordes?
No, but it can manage them.
It's an atypical class not the norm for these things. Good compared to what staves, No
hmmm
I think they're great for hordes. Just be sure to aim for heads for that finesse dmg bonus.
they're somewhat below average, but they'll work if you've got rampage on them
The MK5 is good for dodging into the next planet
Also, is there a good way to farm plasteel besides just running quickplay over and over?
Good vs hordes to me means you can either control a horde and/or melt it.
not really, unfortunately
Nope
you can kind of stay alive indefinitely against hordes with mk4 push block
with zero effort
besides going specifically for linear maps like magistrati/consignment yard instead of being up to the whims of quickplay
but muh 20%
It's almost like Sienna but i feel like she was really limited on her power. This feels nice
materials only scale based on difficulty (and quickplay) and nothing else
I think the trick for maximum plasteel is to play at the highest comfortable difficulty you can. Search off-the-path a LITTLE bit for resources, but don't scour every inch of the map either.
whats the worst that ould happen, I get vent purge for the third time in a row? 
Lucking out with loot goblin team mates helps, but those are so rare these days.
the trick to max plasteel is to play way too fucking much
damnation is a big step up in maximum materials spawned, so it's usually ideal to play it (low int preferably)
Diamantine shouldn't even be in the game at this point it's pointless
sitting on 30 k of it
yeah fatshark is sitting on what to do with diamantine it seems
wonder how long it'll take for diamantine to be relevant again
That's not entirely true. It's a 60% increase in plasteel from Malice to Heresy and a 55% increase from Heresy to Damnation
let me cash it out for my 401k
Also being happy with "good enough" or "just fine" gear helps with plasteel.
BUT the psyker chat. We are never satisfied.
I choose to believe that fatshark isnt letting us name or "lock" weapons in inventory vanilla so we dont hoard a buncha shit for when dismantle gets chagned
pretty big step up
and damnation has a better plasteel-to-diamantine ratio than heresy and malice
Sorry, you're absolutely correct. I did my math backwards.
ye no worries
actually, I think my diamantine gain has been neutral?
i'm pretty sure I've been floating around the same amount for a good amount of time now
i should probably get numbers on the ratio of plasteel-to-diamantine used for consecration/refining/reblessing
Refining.... so farking expensive.
out of curiousity, what second blessing would be good on the revolver beside speedloader? i currently have hand cannon on it as 2nd
I do get stupidly lucky on other classes meme of the week weapons tho
I keep not getting hadron'd
Surgical (+10% crit chance per stack; you gain a stack per x seconds while aiming)
gotta get lucky for that one then
not me lmao
gained like 10k since patch 13

closing in on 100k diamantine
Dang. I was watching a darktide run, but I paused it part way through. Now it's gone. ๐ฅฒ
Bye bye unfinished video. You will be forgotten.
hmm yeah i've been floating around 50k diamantine
im at roughly 83k
i think i had 48k a month ago but i'm not sure
Bro, the floodgates that are gonna open when they finally (emperor willing) allow some form of currency conversion
gg
if we can trade diamantine for plasteel im gonna be darktide jeff bezos
I feel like both is overkill on the dodge
they have great synergy
yes apparently uncanny strike should be put in there somewhere
i too was running precof/riposte and indeed it was overkill
uncanny really helps put crushers/maulers down faaaast
can always change
its neither
Soulfire staff?
you can do it
Or stuff
yeah purg and assail is probably getting the least value out of assail but there isnt really a reason not to take it still lol
Blaze on the force sword running the elite kill soulblaze thing
Is it true that uncanny stacks apply to ticks from force sword special? Cause that seems wild
it applies to soulblaze so its possible
It feels like it helps
What is the best Purg build currently? I run it with BB just for the wildfire
I'm wondering if uncanny could actually let you one-shot maulers/crushers with a single special headshot
BB, shriek, warpsiphon
No
But canny gets 4 stacks instantly from the special
This is what I run, not saying it's the best but... 
I really enjoy this setup. It's great for most encounters, but has one major vulnerability against scattered shooters at mid-range
So crusher combo for deimos is special head > light > heavy
Slide in and suppress them all, pray for empathic evasion
You have to hope someone else on your team is able to deal with it. That should be a cake-walk for a competent vet to wipe up, but you only occasionally get one of those
also quelling
Yep
so my net neutral gain of diamantine is probably because I refine/rebless a lot more than I consecrate at least nowadays
youll never become a diamantillionare like this
Imagine if fatshark just straight up scraps those 2 currencies
retvrn to colored shards
give it a year or two and we'll get loot die
This should not exist as a reward from an auric 5 maelstrom.....
I do wish books did that tbh
I already have 4... lol
rip
well now you have 3 too
Lootdie adds +50 base rating to the reward if it's a weapon and +20(?) if it's a curio
gotta catch em all
if you dont have alรถl the blessings available are you really playing the game
lootdie adds/subtracts 50 base rating 
Our lord Tzeentch approves this message
is it me or the obscurus swings go quite well with weakpoints related blessings?

2nd light ๐ฅบ
first one pushes their head down to the side, second one comes up like an uppercut
but it requires too much effort so 
i despise the 2nd light
uppercuts should never exist on a finesse weapon
i'll shoot its kneecaps
I never used the obscurus, 99% of my time as a psyker was with an illisi.
I do feel something changed tho, it doesn't behave as well as before.
I don't know if it's the dodges, slaughterer or the mobs being tankier
how usefull is rampage on a mk4 duel sword? does it even trigger often?
i see some people running it
i wish i could take the 3 middle talents in the tree but you just cant ๐ฆ
@thorn lintel mk4
they bumped the cleave up, so you can proc & maintain it with lights on groaners/poxwalkers
for dreg bruisers, you'll need to push-attack to proc it, but you can maintain it with lights after getting the +cleave from the +power of rampage
you won't be able to maintain it with lights on scab bruisers
I prefer uncanny + rampage for everything that's not melee/monstrosity maelstrom
not melee?
i prefer having the crit blessings/precog for melee/monstrosity over rampage
lol ok, that other reply was confusing
oh melee maelstrom yeah
question does unyielding dmg and carapace dmg offer the same dmg boost against crushers?
only carapace
crushers dont count as unyielding?
nope
crushers are full carapace
would it seem somewhat useless to have carapace dmg on a mk4 with uncanny?
ah ok
hey guys what perks should i have on the surge force staff and preferably whats a good meele to have recently hit lv 30 and still kinda confused what to spend resources on
youll delete crushers with it
u get more value out of +carapace with uncanny than u would without it
the only things you really need are unyielding/carapace/maniac so its up to you
but i run carapace
cause the unyielding dmg isnt high enough for me to spec into it

i wanted to build for some boss dps, but it feels like overall, the psyker isnt meant to do that
i heard him get grabbed by a mutie and immediately heard the slams as well
what a tragic fate of a 5-wound psyker
you need to take like scriers with a gun for any real monstrosity dps
i think i had a game where there were 30 combined revives
because 2 guys went down non stop
it was truly impressive
so what weapon is best for the whole melee scriers build?
ds4 + las pistol or vraks 7, ive gotten vraks 7 to work as well
deimos also works
u shank guys
scriers with a DS also allows it to horde clear
which is nice
sciers + DD but tbh i doubt DD makes a big difference
tbh you could have done that without gaze
it looks cooler
true
with the screen effect
scriers is also the ult that i just straight up forget to use
because its like cool but beyond that 
i run it cuz i like the voicelines
i dont think its bad but its very niche
its not bad
but it needs some work
it is deranged that vet gets to chain through cooldown with exe stance
i need to go out of my way to give myself a reason to use it lol
yeah exe stance is still mad good
vet with the rework if they leave him as is will be gross
although tbf psyker doesnt need any buffs lol
i think vet unironically has one of the most balanced lineups
in terms of which ult u run
oh i just meant like stuff like plasma gun being very good atm
theres benefits and downsides to both (though shout is a bit overtuned)
or columnus
plasma still needs a full rework
imo
the gun does not make sense
the LMB is more ammo efficient and equally as heat efficient
idk what they want it to be
see what i would do
like i thought it was gonna be the delete single target anything gun
make primary fire have very limited cleave, but a bigger splash
but then they just slapped +100 cleave on it
yeah
and then make the RMB have better ammo efficiency/ADM vs unyielding and carapace
cuz like, u should have to charge up ur big boy hunter gun
to kill the big boys
because the plasma cleave sounds cool, but
i can get behind that idk why both shots accomplish the same thing but with worse ammo effic
it still hard stops on carapace
So if you take the talent that "secondary fire" has like +25% crit chance, I think that give good reason to charge-fire for things like crushers
i dont even use the cleave tbh
which means in a lot of situations its meh
its only nice when elites line up
and it does good vs rager/gunner packs, but u also have a shit ton of other tools
for dealing with those
otherwise im wasting ammo
it's roughly as ammo efficient for crushers/reapers
which is a shame
you also dont need to charge shot most things
and the primary fire has 50 cleave
anyways
and the charged shot scales it up to 100
like it doesnt do a ton for breakpoints
or if it does hit BPs its still overkill
because a lot of stuff u can 2 shot
but the charged shot takes up 3 shots of ammo
i think the only relevant one it does for me is one shot on crit headshot on a crusher
but if it doesnt crit its just a 2 shot
and so is 2 LMBs
yeah
the gun is janky as fuck
the buff just made it usable (and meta for scab melee only lmao)
ty!
i didnt even hate it before
the problem before was
but bolter also existed before
it did nothing a hb3/bolter wouldnt do
u were taking this gun to flex
essentially
yeah i always wanted to bring it to do single target super well
but your better off with bolter/mk3 or even mk12 and now vraks 7
plasma with flak/unarmored in pre13 could 1 tap gunners and that was cool
i mean plasma is usable
i also wish its boss damage was better '
didnt need to reload as often as bolter
because the thing it does
i do think its good now
is nuke elite patrols
very quickly
and in the post patch 13 world there are so many goddamn elites now
(which is good and anyone who tells u otherwise is a snake in the garden)
no my problem was always special spam
which is still there
but now the game has dynamic elite spawns + scripted spawns on some maps are more aggressive
elite patrols are more common
which is good
yeah i like where the games difficulty it at rn
elites are the fun enemies u wanna fight, y'know, when u think 40k u think battling heretics
not fucking
i still feel a little op in some loadouts
having to press dodge at the right sound cue 5 times in a row
but nothing crazy
because theres a million trappers on the screen
gunners are kind of lame though
well like if people complain about power creep
u have to keep in mind
u have to be good at the game and know what ur doing
for that power creep to apply
plenty of fresh 30s wandering into aurics and getting their asses handed to them lol
yeah theyre in a bad spot rn, when u get like 20 of them on the screen at certain points its just tiring
yeah for a while i fucking depised assail + void cause it felt so braindead easy to me and then i saw someone borderline fail to function in auric and i thought that maybe its not as bad as i thought
i hate gunners less than i used to but the dont move or you get stunlocked every 5 seconds does get annoying
when the game goes that way
i still thank god everyday that dogs are better
tide games are actually just a dps check, if you kill things before they swarm you, game easy
if you dont kill anything and everything hits you at once welp
bugged sound cues, stupid high stagger res
etc
like the dumbest fucking interaction in the game
is a trapper running up to you
and you push
so its not just me that has them ignore my push and im sad
trappers are funky, you should be able to push them yea
kill them first 

unironically
i think if you hit them it works better but hitting them is not in my muscle memory
the problem is never
when there is 1 trapper
it is when u have to kill other stuff and the trapper spawns around a corner and is already in ur face
when they are point blank
dont be in a corner
idk if ive had sound cue issues but maybe i just havent noticed them
its map dependent
the problem is that the engine is at its limits with enemy spawns a lot of the time now
esp on maelstroms
aside from this patchs spawn jank at least
so u can get completely silent muties/bursters but
theres instances
where ur standing in 1 spot
special is super distant
oh yeah the sound engine just breaks
i always took that to mean that its targetting you
esp on stuff like waves of mutants + poxbursters and hounds
this is where it happens a lot
sound just turns off lol
i feel that mutant sound cue radiates from the person it is targetting, for sure
i thought maybe my onboard audio was the issue but i got a soundcard and have the same issue
fatshark devs r mostly not playing auric maelstroms
and when the original person its targetting breaks its targetting (like jumping off a ledge or something) it changes target to you
and you get the ear deafening scream
nah
i question if they are even running damnation sometimes
the audio in this game is super janky
probably not
theyve streamed it before
but for the most part theyre not gonna have the same issues people who play the game a lot are
wasnt that like the CMs
just cuz thats like, how it goes with any game
because i just have a very hard time that somebody played agianst the old dogs and said yeah that works
the developers are almost always to some degree out of touch with the gameplay
dude
hold on
ur misunderstanding
with old dogs
if you self-hosted
they worked perfectly
or used old voidstrike and said yeah thats fine
like in the psykh with creature spawner
u could do everything u can now
slide under, push consistently, etc
ah ok i did hear about that but didnt think about the fact thats what fatshark devs would be playing on lol
they just made dogs work client sided now right?
think they just gave them lag compensation
u can push em from super far away
essentially
so its like a bandaid
and the lag comp is better
because the issue before was shitty lag compensation
and dogs just having a spaz attack
yeah for me pushing them is super consistent
and the game arbitrating that u didnt push them
knock on wood
if there was any weirdness at all
i find i can just do it on reaction to the soundcue now
Does anyone have any advice on getting the Warp Battery penance
whether they wind up the pounce or not
bugged to not work rn i believe
Oh..
a lot of weapons that were underperforming
I got up to 202 seconds
were working as intended
people were reporting that they did it
its just what they thought the weapon was performing
wasn't actually good
like void had some of the best suppression vs shooters in the game
old void was decent next to surge in malice probably
and could completely disable patrols with suppression alone
but like... in practice, this is worthless in a lot of cases
like balancing games is hard and they have done a good job of bringing some of the bad stuff up but i just question a few things
yeah in a game where DPS is king suppression is
ok
the reception to the psword/flamer nerf
influenced the state of balance pre-patch 13
i think the flamer nerf was fine aside from it affecting all burn damage
psword nerf was dumb since they just put it behind crafting
they nerfed the time it takes to set up righjt
fundamentally psword is just a bizarre weapon
flamer has so many downsides though
i swear its slower than before
i think it was as slow as before
not that i used it a ton
if i had it my way u wouldnt even be able to use those guns
they also stop firing when anything touches you
i dont like flamer cause its a little mindless
horrible
purg doesnt
only when charging
flamer is a weapon that makes me interact with the game less
and its really slow
flamer is just shit
and it doesnt even like
make enemies instantly disappear like a kickback does
which means it isnt funny
look at these shooters
current kickback rn is very funny
now u see them now u dont
trauma staff may be your thing, as it makes ragdolls do the funny
trauma has too much white shit going on
trauma is alright but im waiting for them to release more staffs
im so glad they buffed it shooting a gunner point blank and not killing it with my single shot cannon made me sad
none of them really click with me in a way where im like
"damn this is banging"
theyre all just kinda tolerable except purg
i like trauma quite a lot
trauma is cool but it was also like the one thing i could use pre-patch 13 as far as staffs go
purg is the best staff in terms of gameplay
i should try void again only played it once since patch 13
you get to interact with so many mechanics
surge is also fun
flanking, sliding, suppressing
i like gunpsyker the most rn
damn
that counts I suppose
because scriers loner has some funny voicelines
i mostly play psyker for the melee tho
Check out this staff concept I came up with. Do you think it's something they should add to the game?
fireball staff2
does stopping power help with any breakpoints on MK3?
i would want one
I like to use purg's LMB often and just use it to support a melee playstyle
any new staffs would be good but i think this would probably be too strong because its an ogryn nuke with no ammo limitation
how on earth do people get these super high modifiers rolls anyway, just buy thousands of greys and hope?
i'm not a gacha player
just roll till you get 370+
also managing an inventory like that would be painful
twas an emperor gift drop
thats why you name your weapons
yes
yup
lmao
multiple of my perfect weapons cost me million+ dockets
๐
because you also need to pray hadron doesnt brick it
partly because it takes forever to get a good roll sometimes but also cause hadron bricks a bunch of them
i have 7mil now 
i used to have a ton till i started fishing for perfect weapons rather than good enough weapons
honestly this game drives home the experience of living in a company town better than DRG, which is specifically themed about it
i might be going for the perfect weapons soon
so what you're saying is that i need the +money blessing on every one of my curios, eh?
just play more aurics
auric will get you plenty
+docket trinkets are additive to modifier bonus or multiplicative?
That's fair, this is still much less dmg than the frag bomb though (I think like 60%?) and intended to cost a full peril cycle to charge and quell before recast. I'm sure the numbers could be tweaked ๐
