I mean force sword
nice guide, but I am short of materials for forging
Is Psyker the weakest class right now?
lmao no
glass cannon class
Vet?
probs but that also depends from the build you are running
psyker's flesh is weak
there are absolute monster builds for vets as well
currently it seems all classes have strong builds but what differs is the amount / flexibility of the builds
ogryns probs being in the strongest spot right now in that they are just absolute powerhouses
psyker struggle a bit with monstrosity damage unless you are running a very few specific builds
Recently lvl’d all 4 classes to 30 and felt i had easiest time on Ogryn and hardest time on Psyker
well Psyker's don't really get good until you start to get good gear and unlock your talents
it's a rough start but they scale well
And you are made of glass through and throughout, still
I mean non of the other classes punishes u with a down lol (i need to manage peril better)
Exhibition A, it's not only the class it's also the person who is playing that class
Hard to call vet weakest now with how op their shout is currently.
Maybe slowest at dealing damage.
Its like there only redeeming feature to be fair
it's hard to say some class is weakest, it's just that it seems not all classes have many really strong builds
I’d argue Zealot is currently bringing the least to the table of all classes
vets seem to get the narrowest "meta" build variety this patch
But that may have something to do with my bias towards Ogryns
Zealot with martyrdom is still so tanky and do so much melee damage while being super slippery.
I beg to differ. Thammer is like the right hand of the emperor and heavy sword zealots who know what they are doing are like:
Ogryns seem really op rn yet I see so few of them in my games
I think the problem with ogryn is it sort of struggle in solo clutch situation because slow movement and big hit box.
I
Don’t get me wrong, Zealot is far from being weak, but of all classes whenever I play Zealot, I fail to excel at anything in particular that is not already covered in a way
I may just be playing with competent people of all things…
Zealot has the most versatile melee for me with combat axe. Can horde and elites clear exceptionally well.
I may have 2 learn the way of heavy sword then, getting bored of crusher bonk stick
Also decent monster damage with heavies on combat axe.
hsword v fun, i call mine the blender
I prefer antax myself for better elites clear. 
psyker has auto-aim, i like it <.<
fair, caxe v good
The bm change is very good.
some also seem to like devil's claw now on zealot
Way faster horde clear with bm axe now.
yeah combat axe zealots never get old
mm i should try axes again its been a while
You don't get unlimited cleave but you kill 4 enemies per swing.
my hsword been glued to my zealot's hand for ages
Before you kill 1 or 2 and did like 20 damage to the rest.
for hordes, combat axes only use push attacks or we can kill the horde with lights? I feel like my antax combat axe light 1 and 2 for me only kill 2 poxwalkers
if you are talking about psykers with combat axes rashad is the only thing you should consider, and the rule goes:
- carapace, unyielding = heavy
- everything else = light
- it's ok to open on a flak with a heavy but never on a maniac
i have BM 4
Push attacks are mostly for making space on CAxes - they have worse damage values than regular light attacks
yup
you only push attack to make a breather and then throw some lights in there
during a horde
Thus, BM benefits more from swinging Lights at enemies’ heads
also for taller characters, would achlys be a good contender for BM axe since you can QQ cancel or block cancel heavy 1 hordes?
and heavy 1 is a sweep
heavy 1 is too slow
You can, but it’s extremely gimmicky
ahh I see
unsafe
yeah i think I'll try giving c axes a go with my zealot and psyker
I remember crucian roulette knife
that was fun while it lasted
was fun while it lasted
oh wait wrong video
lmao
This thing does a lot of DPS. Not the most amazing horde tool but melts absolutely anything in range. Combine with Kinetic Deflection and you always have block available & a ranged attack via BB.
there
ay sorry wanted to ask if anyone tested how much benefit does the cleave targets stat of the antax has over the rashad?
not enough
IIRC at 70+ cleave targets you can hit two poxwalkers with a single light attack
cleave targets only mean you stagger more of them
But it’s not a dealbreaker in any regard
you still only deal like 10 damage to them
is there any way to make blazing spirit on force sword work
currently, no
dammit
this is the real buff
aww ok , I now feel sad for my first 545 Antax axe on my psyker
If they weren’t so effective at killing trash enemies by default, maybe
😦
But enemies die too quickly to regular attacks* for BS to take effect
the problem is not helped by:
- blazing spirit does not trigger if the crit kills the target
- wildfire spreading bugs

for blazing spirit to work we would at least need it to trigger with wildfire on a crit kill and they would at the very least fix the single stack vanishing bug from wildfire
welp in the corner to collect dust this force sword with soulblaze 4 will go
yup, bank it, some day it might be meta
The option is there, but its viability currently is questionable.
perhaps it's semi viable during light's out??? xD
lmao
making some candles
Can you wet corpses on fire with blazing
I wonder if there would be a niche for BS sword to have an acceptable degree of Monster DPS, but then the stack limit is making it difficult to justify, still
if the sword has soulblaze flames
I don't think with blazing spirit but definitely with purgatus, and so on
then i dont care if it's good i will use it
oh wait
it might
haven't tested it
but I think staff blazing spirit does
so there is a possibility
but even though wildfire triggers off from bodies (after soulblaze ends on them) it's not really that beneficial
You can try to use it with low ragdoll count
the problem is if you keep on applying it to the corpse it will never spread 🙈
By the way, since we’re talking force swords and such, what typically is the swarm clear combo of attacks for Illisi? Is it light spam for non-mixed, trash only hordes, and light/heavy mix against mixed hordes, or is there something else I should consider? (Obviously special attacks help with mixed-in elites and toughness restoration with Soulstealer)
@frail sand your best bet is an Illisi with Shred and Blazing Spirit. Bonus points for running Gaze and Battle Meditation as well.
the blazing spirit force sword shall go to the same corner as the blazing spirit trauma staff
Blazing trauma is actually good though
blaze trauma is still goated
wait what
blaze trauma is meta
if you have the right rolls
Unlike the sword trauma doesn't kill in the big aoe
i think i have a reasonable one
So you can set a lot on fire
and you can do all this while making a safe heaven for your team
bonus points for bringing in stun shileds or dome
I dont know the exact ratio but its not crazy if like a third or half your damage might be soublaze with it
i have both the blazkng variant and the rending shockwave variant anyway
To be fair plenty of it might be overkill
if only blast radius was 80%
If you then hit them with the trauma
you already get a shitton of SB damage just from creeping flames and perilous combustion
ufff
That's a nutty staff
It’s probably better than mine is, don’t you dare complain 
hurts to see 380 so close to optimal
dont let perfect be the enemy of great, thats a good staff
I cannot for the life of me get a good illisi to roll, however
This is the one I have
getting a good grey base is proving to be a challenge lmao
nobody actually runs perfect weapons because the 1% to get to 100% perfection takes like a thousand hours of plasteel grinding
I cannot get a trauma staff that has a base rating of more than 375
Damage dump stat 
this is very good
there's no blazing spirit 4 on trauma staff right
correct
for blaze trauma do you guys get the crit aura or no
i feel like the 10% cd reduction is universally useful morso than the other auras
you can't get it even if cdr aura wasn't amazing because you want shriek for the build
Not the first time they bug auras
if you are running fire shout take 10% ability reduction, if you are planning to stack up on warp sihpon charges and never give those up, get the 5% crit, if you take dome or stun shields it's up to you both work

calssic 

Oh. What? What were those if you happen to remember?
there is a bugged out talent for veteran right now which causes them to take increased damage
I’m genuinely curious, because it’s the first time I heard about it 
I believe Thy Wrath Be Swift replaced your aura before
what HAHAHHAHA
Which one is that
Exhilarating Takedown
I need an aura to prevent teammate from shooting poxbursters when im pushing it
Noted
https://www.reddit.com/r/DarkTide/comments/17q6ve3/psa_veterans_exhilerating_takedown_is_bugged_and/
Veteran also gets stun immunity if they take improved grenades
Because of course they do
This one ya
yup
I'm pretty sure it's intended to work when you have the grenade out
But it just happens constantly
It will be sorely missed when it gets patched

I mean this might be the biggest lie of Fatshark descriptions in the history of Darktide xD
what the hell HAHAHAHA
That's insane that's almost a 50% increase in damage taken
FS thought vets were too strong so they slipped in a couple hidden nerfs in there figuring no one would notice xD

Should rework it into a talent called "Glass Cannon"
you take 30% increased toughness dmg but you dish out 15% more dmg
They dont fix stuff like that but they fixed Smite real quick
yup
I assume Surge staff EP will be fixed next patch as well
Wildfire has been bugged since it was released
but they don't have time to look after that sorta stuff
the rectangle shield is so fun to use
Oh my god
making mutants bonk on the wall
If it's something that's unintentionally benefitial to a class, of course it will be gone 
I thought veteran had 4 toughness talents with 2 of them being good
otherwise, eh it'll be fine
Words can’t describe my anger
They bonk on dome too
do they?
is that even intentional
yeah seemed to notice this in last game
lmao fatshark pls
They get trapped inside the dome itself
I gotta go replicate it and add to atheneum

Like a rat in a bucket
the fact that the game even runs is a miracle
6 Views. Watch Test 2 and millions of other Warhammer 40,000: Darktide videos on Medal, the #1 Game Clip Platform.
emperor wills it
There you go
lmao thanks
It's 100% consistent
Somebody mentioned that the dome is probably a solid wall that the players can walk through
lol wtf
my favorite is bursters having a heart attack and infinitely lunging backwards
almost makes me feel bad for them
oh yeah, what actually makes mutants stop when u zap them with surge staff?
What is that counter to the right of your crosshair may I ask
it feels like it takes 2 zaps?
range I think
more info = more skillz
I think it was for testing
The less of the game I see the better
And then I never turned it off
Somebody in the zealot chat has a disgusting hud
Everything is centered on the crosshair
God knows what the guy is looking at
Btw is Surge staff AOE or Single Target only?
it hits 3 targets but only damages one
4 if you're using the smite node for +1 jump
alright, added that dome interaction to Atheneum
that is kinda dumb too ngl
Isn't it 2 targets base
why is the smite node affecting surge zap
And 3 with smite
yeah surge staff is 2 targets base +1 with the smite modifier
If you have the EP bug then the secondary can actually kill small enemies
On crits at least
Does like 400~ damage
warp siphon + perfect timing + warp rider and you can kill lesser enemies with half charge
even without EP
The running theory is that the lightning effects and damage code is the same and they just copy pasted over
delicious pasta
it must use the same function or something for sure yeah
only became a noticable problem when they raised smite damage in EP tho 
This is the funniest to me
The bug could've been with us from the very start but nobody noticed it
just did a recolor of the zap
the fact that the staff uses Staff-bound Smite is a large indication that it’s actually doing it
some turnbonerd likely knew this was a bug in 13 but it didnt really matter
it's effing not
Then we just need a BB and Assail stafg
This is the second theory/conspiracy
Lets go

it's only a bug if it's not (yet) intentional
It’s never intentional
Everything is intentional to me until its fixed
We will never know the mysterious ways of FS
This game is too buggy to tell
when something buffs us, it's a bug, when something is not working as it is supposed to work, it's a hidden feature
getting intentionally dodged by malding vets in pub lobbies
Lmao
It's a feature
Vet chat told me Vet has better melee than Zealot
Good, most cases those vets are not great anyway
its always vets too its fuckin comical
Throw back to yesterday when my vet purposely ran into daemonhosts to try and kill the entire team twice
Vets don’t like being outshone by everyone
I've hada zealot player just stand still for like minutes at a time when both me and another psyker brought bugged surge
but they didnt leave
They were too used to being OP

they just coasted
When they had op shit we didn’t afk in protest , they have no right to complain now
look, it's not op, psykers just have better gaming socks
They complained back then too
psyker coder stockings
Honestly why i only started putting in actual hours on Vet after P13
I had a very weird ass game yesterday. Had a Plague Ogryn spawn on the team, all the rest completely ignored him and a couple specials and continued pushing on. I had to solo the Plague Ogryn, the flamer and the mutant and obivously took some damge while doing so. No biggies I go for the slurp in health station. A chaos spawn enters, again, the team continues except the other psyker this time, I mostly tank the chaos spawn and then get hitted by a net through the monster. The other team members just let me be there in the net until I have 10% hp bar uncorrupted. I go for another slurp since there is a ledge and there is still some medicae left in the station. They vote kick me out.
weird shit
I occasionally enjoyed the power trip but it really felt too easy back then

And if you didn't run the good nodes Vet felt pretty meh
Not only that, it was the mechanically least interesting. At least now there are choices that actually change how the class plays as opposed to only varying degrees of good at ranged combat
old vet had the strongest melee, strongest grenade, strongest ranged (ignoring zealot flamer at the time) and had good toughness. felt so boring to play
Menu > Social I believe
Oh boy no more bad randoms when I'm playing with my friends
Inb4 griefing

Can also make the game private then
But the AI aren't that good :/
true duo gaming
So far on auric damnation i ever kicked only people that go afk forever...
If you run surge staff with bug dont expect me to come running to you when you need help
Hell id rather have you dead for the entire mission if i could choose.
Do people seriously not like people using bugs? Like if you win you gives a flying f
Who*
And surge is good but not that good, it randomly decides to not hit the people in front of you
Are 3 people dying per charge too many?
A surge staff nuking every single thing that dares approach us is not the defintion of engaging fun.,
hey I had almost the same game yesterday but I engaged the plague ogryn and my three non-bot teammates ignored the plague ogryn and continued on
They started the map's mid event while I was soloing plague ogryn
I mean if your at low difficulties sure
and vote kicked me
It doesnt matter difficulty
But higher difficulties I promise there's enough elites to go around
weird people
because it was a long day at work yesterday and I wanted to relax
so normal damnation for me
yeah I was playing auric but I got super confused why they would vote kick someone for nothing
Just had this french guy call me a stupid dog for soloing the horde instead of reviving him
😭
possibility that you joined a pre-made 3man and they were speedrunning? but weird why wont they set it to a private match if speedrunning then
if people wanna play private games then just put the lobby to private
yeah
They probably forgot to set it to private and wanted their 4th friend to join
and saying that the boss didn't spawn is impossible since , you know, their HP shows in your UI
I guess this is the most plausible reason
just a bit dick move to do so without saying anything
kinda sucks ass tho since, your 4th rando solo'd a boss and will attempt to kill yet another boss and then you kick them
like wut????
Asking for a friend, how do i do the surge bug?
hahhh
one time I was playing with my friends we asked a guy (just hot joined) if they could leave the mission so our friend could get in
he was kind, wished us good luck and left to another mission
which one?
the quick cast or the damage buff or the extra target?

you thought there was only one bug?
Based music taste friend
wait there's a quick cast bug?
Empowered psionics
3 BUGS TF
is quickcast quell cancel?
yup, cast Surge and immediately when you start hitting switch to your blitz and back to surge staff
can't quell cancel it but can blitz cancel it
which skips the whole animation but applies full damage
ahh I thought there was a bug that allowed you to instantly charged up the surge
right thought so cos i tried to qc it earlier didn't work
Thank you friend, Layne forever ❤️
actually speaking of, i was using your Deimos + Surge + Smite build earlier pygex and what do you do for boss/carapace? both deimos special and surge spam felt similar
aight, I listed all the three surge bugs to atheneum so if you are feeling lazy you can direct people there
damn i blew myself up with scrier voidstrike than with purg
yeah gaze is risky with staves, you gotta learn to give up early enough
this seems useable
Is Unyielding good on Trauma?
I figured it must be the worst stave for bosses
Though I guess if you're debuffing with brittle
no it's not
It does ok damage to beast of nurgle but yeah not great
i'd swap that unyielding to flak
@rigid rune that staff will do great things if you swap unyieling to flak and play it with warp siphon, inner tranquility, warp battery and battle meditation
will go on for days
try it
I've got venting shriek which seems to work fine enough for peril management
battle meditation with flurry and inner tranq will make you giggle during hordes and mixed hordes
venting shreik is nice but drops your inner tranq stacks
ok maths wise, can surge make use of battle meditation?
if you are using inner tranq then yes, otherwise you can't tell the difference
hm
6*(-6%) = -36% peril cost
Can a psyker be a gun build or are other character just bettter
maybe i should run battle meditation but unsure if i'd make use of it over perma -5% peril gen
gun psy isn't bad but vet is the "gun class"
I did this using the Psylot build from Atheneum. You tell me.
900k lmao
You should dm me the build and weapons Jesus
@near wyvern ayo drop the build??
Right
vet is also bad so
at the very bottom of the guide
really just do whatever
how could vet be bad?
weakest class right now
talents as a whole are just really weak
@rigid rune my boyfriend has played only vet since beta and I do more damage and utility than him with 50 hours in
doesn’t have the damage to keep up with the other classes
It's so tragic I feel so bad for him
nor the survivability
im the same way
my friend has a ton more hours than i do
n im just
better
lmao
I just right click and look in the general direction of something and hes fighting for his life trying to kill 2 ragers
YEAH I GENUINELY don't know if I've no lifed the current update or something but
the only two points i could drop for battle meditation, because I'm 100% sure battle meditation wouldn't outdps perilous combustion
Ever since patch dropped I've been doing big dam
you are using scrier's with trauma???
why
Can someone smarter than me explain this
It has the wall stun? Don't mutants stop and look dumb anyways if you dodge?
wouldn't happen to be using surge stuff eh? :p
As smart space wizards saying enjoy the warp bugs till' it lasts 🙂
Deimos, purg, BB
no i said surge #psyker-class message
I had fun with surge but I didn't want to crutch on it then have them remove the bug
why scrier's with surge??? xD
RIP old nomanus cc
surge generates a ton of peril
yeah but it works
Deimos is great, I have a 380 with really good stats.
I would drop the movement speed from scrier's for battle medi
but then again
if you are really wanting to stack up on those warp siphons you would just take all out of scrier modifiers
cause you would want to be hanging on to those stacks
If they don't patch surge staff next patch than it might be intended.
huh?
but then i wouldn't use scrier 
Or fs is just a bunch of goofballs 🙂
cause inner trang + full battery is +24% damage and -36% peril cost all the time
unless you drop the stacks
by ulting
assuming someone else doesn't get to finish the elites before you
could be a hotfix or patch any moment now. even if it doesn't contain a surge fix though it probably just means it's in the certification process still with microsoft for a patch coming up
Ye i rock surge with warp charges it's so good )
like some random fucker running Psylot build would ruin your day in a blink xD
that's why you blitz cancel (and pray it crits)
ew
I have no doubt abusing a bug works
what
During my surge staff arc this happened
that's just ani cancelling
an assail psyker aggroed a demon host, it broke my mental and i just gave up 😭
every class can do it
hell I did it on ogryn heavy 1 when I wanted to bonk fast with shovel
lmao
quell cancel is just animation cancelling, you cancel the after cast animation which is just some additional delay, blitz cancel on surge staff is a bit more than that since it cancels the animation but not the damage
well yeah so it cancels the animation
so is blitz cancelling an ogryn h1 to not have endlag on my shovel bonk not animation cancelling
even though i'm cancelling the animation

I wonder what is animation cancel stands for in your mind )))
skipping an animation that does nothing
That's just cancel...
I think it would be more like animation cancelling an Ogryn H1 before the attack even starts but it still cleaves the full intended range
please become useful sometime in the future 
but the attack does start
this sibling gets it
Normally if you cancel an attack it prevents the end lag but also prevents further damage
for what it's worth, they specifically went after and removed old surge staff cancels similar to that a little after launch
and it does prevent the initial damage
it just makes you do the final hit
none of the first ticks
luckily the ticks are the majority of the damage am I rite
BB crit when
never
i mean so is the first hit of an heavy
it's the majority of the damage
not the cleave
Ass sale nerf when
FUCK ASS SALE ALL MY HOMIES HATE ASS SALE
either way i doubt you can play surge with scrier without blitz cancelling to avoid overloading
You can go and abuse bugs all you want but I am not going to discuss the reality of a build if you playstyle is to abuse a clear bug 😅
Chances are low... BUT WE MUST HAVE FAITH
Okay, it’s like if you put away your Purgatus right as it finishes charging
And then the entire 5 second gout of flame continues to come out while you’re free to block or swing a sword
quell cancelling surge lmb is like 30% faster or something no? sounds pretty strong as well
Does anyeone remember the mod that lets you track debuffs on enemies
Ily
i'd say sure if we had the entire lightning bolt that CCs that kept on going if I blitz cancel
but there's no cc
just the final damage tick
it's obviously advantageous for damage but you'll want to not cancel at times for the CC
Also will HISTG just throw shit at you constantly? Could I cheese warp battery with premades by just holding somewhere and letting endless mobs spawn?
but i mean
Or a map that's good for jt
But this has been around since the start
You could always cancel surge to do the damage
Is it intended or not

pretty sure ani cancels existed even in vermintide 2
intended or not
hell you got multiple form of cancels in darktide. blitz, quell, block, qq. Some ults cancel your animations too
when in doubt all animation cancels are not intended unless literally tweaked and kept like quell cancel staff left click
and even that might be on the chopping block now that they made it faster

tbh, if you really want you can do the assassination one, they usually throw elites along the fight
or the scanning mission with the giant corrupted tree at the end
Oh true
well i guess i'll keep abusing this bug that lets me play a fun build until fatsharp fixes it then
feels ep man 
if that's what you like then be sure to enjoy it, it might be there for two years or two weeks, no one knows
Might do a private hab dreyko and just sandbag the last area
dw it'll be fixed next week
Can I just quickly complain about how Psyker's Krieg set glove has a big fugly triangle out of place on the left ring finger
wonder if there's a mod that just shows me how long I've had my warp stacks
currently just using a stopwatch on my phone
no, you gave them your money, you lost
Ops modelling

😫
i do. So I take it battle meditation > 20% movement speed
if you are going for the penance just go into any hi-int mission with proper grande final end fight and hope for the best, never ult
eh no, it's too niche of a use case I guess
try it, you can always roll back if you don't notice a difference
I felt so bad never ulting and griefing my team 😭
fair
just bring a nodeless venting shriek, it does nothing for the team so you won't feel bad 
i don't think i kill enough hordes to make good use of it but maybe it'll make me melee more
listen to these new players crying about griefing by not ulting, they have no idea what the original penances were like 😂 😂 😂
or a nodeless scriers
can't wait to do a melee scrier's build when 2 handed force swords come out 
that way it burdens the team and you
why wait, pick a devil's claw 4 and swing away
goes brrrr
during gaze
I've never used a devils claw before
does claw have big finesse
ye
Claw 4 is cool but not as cool as illisi.
I'm a filthy scroll weapon swapper and it's a handicap but I like being able to quell on both weaposn
Powered ilisi cleave is just too good to not use in a melee only build
Bruh I disable weapon swap on scroll wheel.
quelling on force sword always feels bad
Too many time I press special and accidentally swap weapon.
Your special is on scroll?
Because force sword doesn't have quell speed modifier.
Are you a chivalry player
ye, and you also move slower than staff no?
claw 4 was the best in patch #13 but got nerfed behind Illisi again
can't have that said 
But default weapon swap is scroll up/down on the mouse scroll wheel so it interfere with my special button.
isnt it ridiculous with the rampage glitch
doubt illisi can compete vs current rampage can it
Since i started playing shooters in general i always unbind weapon swap from scroll...
I just run shred + savage sweep cause empathic evasion
Aye it's good idea.
rampage does increase your damage to initial targets yes
I don't mind pressing 1 or 2 to weapon swap.
but it also has a very good crit bonus
i got shred and devastating strike on mine
This is the only way
In fact I am weird and I have weapon quick swap on B instead of Q.
but rampage increases cleave a bit too no?
So I do bb cancelling. 
since it's power
Rampage is busted because it's bugged
Is it?
Shred is alright for crit toughness
Hrm quick swap is nice for me on thumb press when I am strafing left.
It also adds +50% damage
bug abuser
They forgot to remove the old buff
./s
that build seems annoying you want to get peril upo then use a gun lol
Is that mean my ds will become schaise after they fix it?
I think all the years of playing fps, I've just gotten used to used to different fingers swapping weps on 1/2
38% power is still good but it won't be broken
Oh I have tag on Q since my battlefield bc2 days.
honestly I just wish to have a secondary keybind to apply to actions
Wait it now give +38% and 50% on top, or just 50 instead of 38?
with slaughterer uncanny it can, cause that gives you +40% power and +120% (= +100%) rending, which totals at 1.25 * 1.4 = 1,75 damage multiplier. Rampage is 1.86 because of the +50% bug, so they are pretty close but Illisi can also do this against single targets
i see
and at some point, when the poxwalkers head comes off it comes off, more damage than that is often not needed
Both
and with uncanny you can keep most of your damage against armoured targets, so you get even higher multipliers if your damage was reduced in the first place
You can.. with mods. 
Doesn't work, the modder hasn't updated/fixed issues in like 6months
So it's gonna be 50% flat dmg nerf to rampage users.... That's sad as fk....
It's actually way more
Power and rampage multiplies
It doesn't allow secondary keybindings of the primary/secondary weps and blitz
You'll lose like 66% damage
At least Savage Sweep is still pretty good c:
sry wait blitz is fine
at least it was for my Devil Claw shenanigans
I might be forced to switch to illisi....
just stop using rampage right now, it's not bad at all
still a strong horde weapon, just not completely dominating
So blitz works but primary/secondary weapons button don't for u?
Mine has shred + devastating strike and does pretty good still even if undertuned
switch from rampage to shred
i'm gonna try illisi again tho 
1 and 2 it is.
There's also the issue where if you reconfigure the controls one too many times, a chain of growing duplicates will appear
Ye i have my ds mk2 mainly bcuz it's good to deal with hordes, but if they will nerf 66% of dmg ....
yes ._.
Illisi will probably be much better choice
devil claw parry is goated in a pinch tho
idk what that is, I can deal with 80 keybinds on WoW but I have some sort of mental block with 5 keybinds in darktide
why mk2 over mk4?
Real homies run deflector slaughterer on illisi.
i assume mk2 ds have cleave
deflector ehhh
It's bcuz u play wow in a "bit" slower temp xD
i got uncanny shred on mine 
Chivalry is a medieval melee game, solid game 10/10
pressing "q" to swap weapons is so hard 😭
that's cause the movement tempo and spatial awarness is totally different
swap to numbers
this is my first ever fps/first person game/slasher(?)
I use numbers to swap weapon, never q
before this I played exclusively league and WoW, so it's like a whole new world lol
it's closer to mmo skills too so should be better for u
numbers might help
this is the way
Faster lights and better horde cleave potential in general, while maintaining same armour pen capabilities
I do have q and e and shift as keybinds in WoW but I just always panic and forget
prob why someone would use mk2
unyielding maniacs, it rocks. Not great stats tho a bit on the low end
but devil claw felt easier to use
meh, mk4 stabs are just too sweet
gonna force myself to play illisi more tho
ive succumbed to knife
we need a dueling sword that have stabbing light attack
still farming knife and illisi on psyker 
U can do same stabs with mk2... )
same here, I am a speed addict
just a bunch of stabbing, and heavy make sweep
can someone explain to me the special attack on the dueling ssword and how its any different from an assassination attack
knifeker is lifeker
yeah but you can't chain them back to back I.E. when fighting crushers or monstrosities. You gotta either block cancel or special cancel the chain.
fast jab that stagger
you use special attack to stagger enemy
hit them in the head
It's low dmg, high stagger on wps
ohh i see
True, u mainly heavy-special, which is fine cuz u also stun lock them
Hrm actually easier to clear horde in a real game when there's latency and stuff.
I also find it easier to dodge with latency
i gotta try out knife/recon build...
gl stunlocking plogryn xD
trying to dodge the third hit of the plague ogryn combo while near him is difficult
I think this game has lag compensation.
Of i am target of that one i just heavy-block usually xD
@heady garnet special, heavy, heavy in action here. You can also special heavy special heavy .... to keep them staggered. Works against crushers, ragers and even charging mutants. Just gotta poke the head.
If i am not i have bb
it has alot of stagger esp on weakspot hit, able to stun a mutant with a special poke in the head.
altho you can just heavy poke a mutant in a head with some warp charges and peril to one shot it tho with warp rider
I find the poke useful in a mutant train
and also for crushers
its gonna be hard to bb a plorgyn when its right at your face
and sure you gonna run back, but thats not happening everytime
sometime you gotta need a melee that let you stand and fight
on mutant trains do yourself a favour and just bring a deimos
https://youtu.be/6v6uUZI6T5c
and sometime you gonna wish that melee can do more than that'
I bb when i am not a target, i specified it...
oh yeah the OG penis sword
what can I say, it's rock solid
i prefer them slightly stiff
I like them properly hardened
i like them moderately solid
Also you want to lightly add oil to keep it maintained
U still talking about penis sword?
maybe
what is a piston when you cant hit the right spot
don't mind if I do
Deimos is always stiffy for a good Poke
aye
I am giggling bcuz it reminds me of asmongold's penis rocket brand xD
time to get the deimos
though i still prefer being able to stab consistently
deimos filler with that slash kind of offput it
ever since I saw that particular review I cannot unsee its logo as a hammer
but force sword, stabby
Same sht bro xD
the slash provides a really nice stagger so you can L1H2 dodge, it provides just enough time window for your dodges to reset so you can keep doing the combo
makes it really safe and very good DPS against horde as well if you can funnel them in to a doorway, just dodge sideways
the number 1 rule with Deimos is L1H2 is your optimal damage, always
light spam is good to use if you get surrounded with the occasional push tho, but as soon as you can go back to that L1H2
Any gta fans? Rockstar just announced gta 6 xD
but they aren't finished with gta 5 yet?
it's only 10 years old

Idk about that
Pygex, since you're here, I've a question
shoot it
crit chance kinda 
I would swap elite damage for flak
it deals enough elite damage as it is
I say leave elites
and more cirts give perfet timing, mettle, empathic evasion
i think leaving crit chance is much better
And swap crit for flak
I've finally acquired a Columnus that can do on a Psylot 
Fair enough, cheers!
oh my deimos one-shots a mutant without maniac, warp charges or mettle (at 0 peril). Why am I running maniac again
you have 80/80/80 damage finesse first target?
damn
The big sword
yup
Is that the actual bp
could not just confirm that myself since I don't have that roll
New mod out should help with that
slap +unyielding on it
Assuming it works properly
sadly only t3 flak as the locked perk and t3 deflector
:/
To oneshot ragers?
I think I'm just taking stamina because I don't need anything and tanking a DH without any stamina isn't happening without good terrain
Just use one of relics with stamina +3...
And go woth idk, undying on weapon
I'll rather sacrifice a weapon perk, I think
the only time I'm focusing on a boss is when there's nothing else around or if everyone else is dead
if there's nothing else, my boss dps barely matters
Undying is also bulwarks and reapers
well they get staggered
So as u wish then )
I always forget Bulwarks are unyielding for some reason
gunpsyker really is slightly different
oh wait nm it doesn't one-shot without maniac, grinder just doesn't update weapon perks properly when crafting from within
need mettle/warp charges otherwise
so light spam for hordes on Deimos?
you can still infinite kite a DH with just deimos dodges, just have to block some hits when you need to reset dodges
is there a way to practice for DH in the grinder?
guys what do you suggest as a good melee backup for my psyker? mainly looking for something to thin enemies around me in case of emergency
i know it's a very broad question but I'm totally clueless in this regard
Force V
hows this build look lads
thanks, will look into it
Too excessive up top and no warp rider.
hah fair
should u keep the toughness on crit talents and drop the toughness gen or opposite
One more week of farming to have a next shot on decent Blaze+ Nexus Trauma....
What weapon are you using?
If it's crit weapon the toughness on crit is enough, I'd drop soulstealer.
And the toughness on peril gain.
Anyway whatever build you do always pick combustion and warp rider.
They both provide free damage.
should be bugged on all of them because the bug is in the base template
With Combustion there is hard choice for me - it's either other things in tree and will do that damage somehow else. Or it took Combustion and barely use it 🙂
It works on any build, any weapon and it has a cap of 31 stacks. So in mixed horde if you manage to land the killing blows on elites it's just loads of free damage. And you only need 2 points investment to get to that talent so it's a very easy pick.
someone please help me getting to level 30, every team i join can't even make it halfway through a t3 mission, im losing my mind
i changed the top talents to added warp rider and the 5% crit node
What is AutoQuell? (is that when Peril degrades naturally?)
If u are going for crits i suggest to switch to mid aura and grab immune on crits
How much of failing halfway do you think due to team and how much on your behalf? I mean little self-analyzing and understading your own weaknesses and mistakes helps a lot to improve
Go lower difficulty?
@pearl quest are you using headphones and do you took notice of melee-attack audio-cues? And special audio-cues. Directional sound in Darktide allows you to be like blind swordman - dodging and blocking whoiutot even taking a look.
What are you trying to accomplish with your build?
Has anyone noticed with the recent Patch 14, that Brain Burst has been acting very weird? I don't know if it is me or not... I check as my ping is around 40-60 consistently. This wasn't an issue until this patch. I have noticed it happens at least 20% of time using the blitz especially happens with long-range targets more often.
Examples:
- It keeps changing targets mid-charge when the target itself isn't even dead.
- Sometimes it targets the wrong person when I pinged an elite/special. It used to prioritize pinged enemies within hordes.
- Holding right charge to full sometimes fails to burst a target as it recharges again when left clicking.
the last issue is due to the rmb charge not properly accounting for faster charge time from EP or kinetic resonance
Wow, seriously? At least that answers that for me.
Also the moment you press LMB during your RMB channel you are going to generate more peril per second. If you go RMB always cook it fully/almost full before LMB
hadron wasn't very kind to me, tips for the upgrades?
It's dead
It does I think but you gotta aim at nothing for it to prio. I like to jump and aim over heads.
its dead
When I pinged elites and specials, it always liked targeting those ones over the others. At least from my experience using Brain Burst often.
T-T
I wouldn't call that prio targeting...
Bricked. Not even good as a flame meme.
pinging and then sweeping from above while holding lmb is pretty reliable
Well you can swap out both blessings if you don't have better
Yeah but elites and specials are taller than normal mobs
I'll probably try my luck some more but yeah I'll probably swap both blessings
@vague chasm slap uncanny + slaughterer or slaughterer + deflector on it, perfectly usable until you get better
it does seem to target shorter targets such as hounds through a horde but it's not reliable
Maybe it priorities heads in the vicinity
maybe yeah
So if you look down it's more likely to hit the dog
Whatever the reason, if it works it works.

thanks, still haven't gotten slaughterer but I'll farm a bit, thanks guys
Yes, if you want to be hedonistic Executor into Slaughterer and specialist damage into maniac of flak depending on how hard you want to slap mutants.
If you want to play the long game you want to sacrifice this and bank the Executor blessing.
Before you decide you should know Executor is bad in this patch (resets on dot effects, resets if you hit a head and then another enemy body on same swing) but things can obviously change each patch. It might also take hundreds of hours before you see Executor 4 again or you might see it again tomorrow.
Hard choices. If I were you I would be happy with the previous sword and bank the T4 blessing from this one or wait to see it again on another sword before putting this one to use. Farming blessings is a pain.
luckily I have executor on another weapon shat on by hadron
at leve 4 i mean
its the one with the thammer
If it's worse than this one then sacrifice the other and make this one a Deflector + Slaughterer
Will do, off to farm blessings then ahah
GL, you gonna need it
anyone else have an invisible stub revolver as psyker?
Happens in psych
"use the iron sights"
" You guys have sights?"
for the first 5 minutes i didnt even notice the revolver had missing parts i just thought the iron sights was awful
Not to say that the thammer is bad, but the people using it generally are.
Regretting making my psyker super duper short so I don't body block people as much 😭
Sadly this is also true
Use the mods
So change it?
It still shows up taller for other people to?
Yes
It is a permanent chang3
However you can change it by just using the mod again
That's insane Holy crap
The option to change height and shit is in the game, just not available to the player. The mod just goes in and lets you use it
I need gender and voice change now.
No mod for that yet
Name of the mod pls.
However there is a mod to give you 8 total character slots
Heightchanger
Tnx
Read the "How to use" on the nexus page
Now i can switch height of my psyker named DemHesSmol to max height huehuehue
Is there a "best height" in terms of melee combat?
Max, to reach ogryn heads
🙏 can't wait for easier voidstrike headshots
It was so awkward aiming up or doing a little hop
But u will be blocking ally sight too 🙂
I sort of want about 80+ with the mod.
To easily headshot mobs in melee.
I have my psyker at 85, zealot at 90, and vet at 100.
And also of your max height ots harder to hide behind low obsticles
Psyker 438, Zealot1 445, Zealot2 93, Veteran 198, Ogryn 140
I should be able to summon and equip platform boots from the warp on comma d
Or we talking height?

Cuz then 445 is a bit tal xD
Plague ogryn size
Plague ogyrn ogyrn mod when
Here it comes
If you want to know my tru lvl 
Is true level retroactive?
Yeah.
Playtime?

Some afk hours but not that much really.
I don't leave the game running for hours or when I sleep.
I do a lot of meatgrinder memeing though. 
@plucky flax you like flakmaniac or something else for blaze trauma?
Flak crit chance.
So you either use xp curios or a shit ton of speedrunning
understandable
I don't use xp curios.
Since you over level me by a lot and I got 600 more hours
🙋 I'll be fren
Imagine using xp curios to flex with your true level )))
I know a guy who does it.
That's hysterical lmao
His total level is probably 3000+.
No fking way xD
Does it show other people as well?
It's tru he's a beast.
I run Ordo curios basically all the time, but this is a little obscene 
Yeah you can check other players in the game their tru lvl.
