They came under the plastic lids
Great fun as a kid until teachers decided they were the devil’s work and started stealing confiscating them
Listen back in the day we didn’t have gameboy and such, we had pieces of paper which we flipped
we made stingers out of paper and shot them at each other using rubber bands. it was like the 90s version of assail
except way more painful
it was aite. was fun times. now we settle our differences in psyker chat
⚡️

love gun psyker
What gun?
I want to run speedloader on revolver but I can't give up on surgical or handcannon
my favorite staff

very kind, ty
hello fellow oldfart!
👋 😂
Does anybody know why Disrupt Destiny will frequently fail to give stacks for several minutes at a time?
THIS DOES NOT BELONG TO ME. I DO NOT OWN THIS IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM. I JUST WANT TO BE ABLE TO LISTEN TO IT FOR LONGER THAN A MINUTE.
It's a mystery. No one seems to know what this song is called... well people do but whatever. I, like most people, would love to have a longer version of this so i made it so. Don't judge me. I made it on Wind...
Anyone try an uncanny strike, blazing spirit, force sword build?
I've tried a few different blazing spirit sword builds, didn't end up liking any of them. Doesn't add anything imo, even with rending crits
Imo Better to just have uncanny and riposte or whatever flavor you prefer - +finesse, +power on kill or peril, etc.
I enjoy my Illisi with bloodthirsty and blazing spirit. More for the fun of seeing blazing spirit than anything though
But it does work to help thin hordes a bit more, not that illisi needed the help though
what else should I change on this voidstrike staff?
Yeah it's more for the flare (heh) I think that anything - doesn't really benefit you in a way that synergies with other blaze sources very well
If they ever change In Fire Reborn to trigger from enemies that die with blaze stacks rather than dying from blaze stacks, I could see it have more of a use
In fire reborn, unless it changed this patch, can proc off your or ally kills if the enemy is affected by soulblaze.
Idk if it has to be your soulblaze tho.
Doesn't have to, if your have 2 purg psykers you get charges like crazy
Doesn't even have a range limit
You can be getting stacks from your purg friend in the other room
I mean you can add any blaze ticks to the 12 of blazing spirit from force sword.
flaming shriek, perilous, etc.
Main issue is it's hard to set that up outside of bosses.
Cause things will be dead before it matters at 4 stacks for crits to get to 12.
My testing on crusher though is pretty nice, they die real easy with blazing spirit uncanny.
Melk is hookin me up
I'd reroll specialists to something else. Carpace/flak/maniac? Specialists are likely going to die with or without the 10% damage
Yeah swap crit damage into crit chance and upgrade that nexus when you can, it will do well
under 375 = dismantle
just went a whole mission where i dc 4 time
and 5th time dc at the extract
so now i lost the mission
what joy
can't believe we're at this stage in the game's lifespan and people still think ping on LMB is a good strat
doesn't help that youtubers tell people they not only should but need to do it
youtubers are a plague
i have the noskull mod and ping sounds turned off because of such people
fuckwits with popularity misleading midwits who think critical thinking is a fiat declaration
like just use a dedicated ping button
fuckers will bring up all these arguments and act like they only have 2 fingers to use on each hand
on the other hand I commonly feel like I'm the only person tagging stuff
granted I only play pubs so I'm kinda asking for it
you can turn that off in input settings
I ping on right click
dunno why they defaulted it to on
no ragrets
I just use it to alert people to bursters now lol
Yea
those blessings u.u oh well
If Fatshark didn't want ping on lmb they wouldn't have given the vet a talent that encourages them to ping everything they shoot at
fuck vets too
every time one of these lmb ping types shows up they instantly whoopsie shit across the room
which wouldn't happen if they left ping on a separate button like a sensible person
In games where people don't tag I just chuckle knowing I'll get to watch them toast when they can't see/hit any of the flamers broiling them from three sides
Tbh i rarely ping unless you literally cant see the enemy due to smoke + distance
I guess it is a little to ask of randoms in pubs to dodge on soundqueue
Ye but most of the time the special/elite is right in front of you
flamers though
Or it just dies instantly after the ping
yeah he's in front of me, but that's wholly unhelpful unless I got a kickback
I see pings as useful if 1, you need help, 2 you see an incoming threat your team isn't privy to or is too busy to notice - particularly game enders like flamer when your team is trapped in a stairwell or etc., 3 visibility concerns
I remember one time on Carnival where I pinged a crew of ragers 5x, was a fuckton of them
holy shit surge smite is so fun i thought it would be counter intuitive but this feels awesome
Other than that, usually superfluous - but within those categories, useful and sometimes critical
a blind nuke nade comes sailing past me from outside of LoS
that kill feed was intense
dude didn't even hesitate, just chucked the nade based on trust
These can totally rock with the right timing
yep everything ogryn feels like slapstick at the heretic's expense
Can someone advise what I should run on Curios?
max 1 wound if you're not sure of yourself, balance between toughness or HP depending on preference
Got it. Explode at all times.
a +3 stamina curio is also very useful but it's a less common choice
gunner resist is widely considered essential, sniper resist also recommended but less critical
I always see psykers running sniper res over gunner res
squishy af, valid position to take
I find gunners way more troubling than snipers is why
understandable
snipers are like, well, you coulda done something about this big fella
it's your own fault you got yourself in a position to get domed
it's fun to run into the open and outheal ranged patrols, and gunner res can take the edge off of that
whereas gunners are like trying not to step in duck shit in a park
i run both sniper res and gunner res since the other curio options are whatever to me
and I don't want my day to be ruined by a single sniper shot
I think I have 3 gunner and 2 sniper on my psyker set
how important is first target on illisi?
i havent played since release. what is my meta
im so freaking lazy and dont wanna remake
does psyker still solo, and if so, is it with the kinetic block
if it's anything like patch 13, it'll still be bugged to not work on the special attack
in which case, it's whatever as long as you have high warp res to spam the special
I figured it might not be that needed with illisi being big on cleaving, but I wasn't sure. thanks!
how much of a multiplier would that be to the special?
if first target started working, that is
scrier warp speed + shred dueling sword is so fun, much nyoom and much columns infantry gun damage
the FT scaling on force swords is from 1x to 1.4x
but i don't know which value it's using as the default currently or if it's just not factored into the damage at all
I'm pretty sure the numbers on it on patch 12 was similar to the psword's special as well with the differences being in the single digits
so presumably the first target stat just isnt factored into the damage calculation at all
acknowledged?
ye
fair their workflow works in mysterious ways
What if psyker got a gun?
magic gun
I'm coming back to psyker after a long break so I feel that
maybe it has a great personality? . .
es good?
i hear all numbers nearly at 80 is better then 1 or 2
crit damage is bad, specialist damage isnt great but not the worst thing ever, blessings are pretty meh tbh
modifiers are good, shame
I'd say you can live with those blessings
the perks though... 
exorcist superiority would make for a mean scrier sword 
superiority -> slaughterer
Crit dmg ->maniacs
realistically illisi is for horde mgmt i find
or exorcist quell could go to slaughterer
depends on if your spamming y6our charge up
first target is good
yeah thats a good sword
change up CD to flak/maniac and its better
I just want a parry mechanic for the duelist sword, psybros..
one of the marks should have a parry 
dang
Parry this stabs eye out with special attack
Oh no my special attack!
Kinda weird the dueling sword is unique to psyker but has no psyking
could've been shared with vets or zealots imo, yeah
Parry
Enemy head explodes
missed my chance to name my psyker shadow wizard money gang
quick question: Is Soulblaze good?
quick answer: it's Alright
Soulblaze seems mostly worth it when you do everything to stack it with
Otherwise i think it’s kinda a waste
edge
sword pistol bb
Dueling sword -> Dueling forcesword 
I used it prior to getting good force and dueling swords. Decent horde melee and monstrosity dmg with the bleed
It's fine but slow, mainly used it on other classes
the best staff in the game right there
Excellent
nice wide swings, pretty high base damage on light attack spam, and if you're lucky, it has loads of bleed.
chainsword is baller
im still in the obscurus boat though (yeah ik the other 2 are better but I like my low tier weapons)
this is on Melks store , any good?
You can change both blessings and it's pretty good
I would swap out terrifying barrage for something else personally
😅Ah seems like gui agrees
Though I feel like speedload has some utility
Sure it isn't anything huge but might save your butt from time to time
After that see if you want to change perks or speedload
get the rending on crit one and you have a great scriers revolver
Ngl I would probably play gunker if we had a bolt pistol option not a bolt gun a bolt pistol
As none of the guns really compare to you know the boomies from the staves
idk i love the laspistol
thing hurts like a mf with DD
that finesse bonus from DD stacks works miracles
True but the pew pews don't really make a sound like you're firing a cannon and then proceed with exploding things in front of ya
Dunno, i like soulblaze with smite and psychic shriek
Stun tons of things and also set things in front of you, for a really suprisingly far out, on fire
Unironically mine is reversed
ty mate, what would you replace for the rending blessing?
Man surge with this reduced damage when hitting arms kinda sucks against elites pack. 😦
that's a hard one
do you want the faster reloads from speedloader or the cc of terrifying?
both are good, just your call
CC of terrifying would be nice
But also
fast reload is nice too
My answer is just use assail
I was using assail I find Smite so much better for the group as I pug domination
Damnation
Terrifying doesn't have any cc
What does suppress do?
smite is tbh
taking all 3 points on it gives you a lot of leeway if director decides to be a little too funny
(and by that I mean sending out ALL the crushers)
doubly so with warp charges and the lower peril gen node
Doing normal damage now, they fixed it
longer stuns and thus, longer uptime on the dmg boost
This is not entirely fixed. Currently the surge lighting stream can still targets arms, so on a multiple armour parts enemies like dreg gunners or shot gunners, you can potentially lose out on the 1 shot break point because +25% flak perk doesn't apply to said arms attack.
In patch 13 or prior, this wasn't the case because surge would always target torso. I hope surge is fixed further, or the easiest thing to do is just revert its behaviour to before where it always attack torso.
Only target weakspot pls UwU
FS acknowledged the bug both on reddit and on their forum
https://forums.fatsharkgames.com/t/surge-staff-still-not-completely-fixed-after-latest-hotfix/87566
Issue Description: Surge Staff RMB still targets random body parts, which causes its non crit damage to be lower due to different armor types. Tests done at 6 Warp Siphon + 5 Perfect Timing, with a 78% damage Surge Staff (25% flak/5% crit rate). Always starting at 0% peril and continuously shooting RMB without quelling. The two biggest offend...
But then smite cannot stack true aim, sadgeness
No care! D:
Worst offender right now is against mauler and reaper. It keeps hitting the carapace parts.
So sad. 😦
can i get a quick and dirty psyker build for leveling? im at lv24 rn
is darktide down rn
im getting spammed with 3013s and 2004s
Is it better to use push special or laser on laspistol? i have the weapon customization mod
I have the push special on just in case i need to shove a pox burster
But that's kinda it
Also dogs
Idt it staggers trappers, you're better off glocking those
Though you can also shoot dogs instead of shoving them now that i think about it
So its really just for shoving bursters
Also on the psyker the shove costs 10 peril
So i dont use push on psyk
The rest is up to you, EP (middle keystone) is funny for spamming assail on elite packs
take soulstealer
besides that I generally agree
especially when assail spamming while leveling basically all of your kills are warp damage, you get your full toughness back spamming like three shards into a horde instantly
Siblings, auric loot and with modfications. is this ok?
rip cloud
it's not unusable but cloud is very important
arguably much more important than damage
really?
yeah
damage only impacts direct damage, the clamp value for it is pretty small
cloud radius directly increases your range, which is the whole point of the staff and it's infinite cleave
again, it's not like it's bricked and totally unusable but it's not ideal at all
Meh. Have fun with those breakpoints. It's not why i enjoy the game. Maybe they'll fix it for you, still very useable for me.
Okay sure but it was nerfed unintentionally from patch 13.
If you are okay with one of your favourite weapon getting gimped because of 'cosmetic change' then fair enough.
Did this with surge earlier but it could have been more. 
Nah don't think too much about it because of last patch notes. if this is wrong then i it'd be nice if it gets fixed next patch. But those breakpoints do not make or break imo. Just important to those who want to play top-games with max difficulty and refined builds.
Good for you.

That's sedition ranking tho
yeah i kinda wish surge had 3 targets by default
I hate trauma glitching through stair cases
Of course I would like to target the floor below the staircase, why wouldn't I?
can someone expalin surge to me
it feels like smite is just an improved version :v
granted im like at level 10 atm
suege feel like no damage, less targets and seems to build peril faster
surge staff does significantly more damage
just charge it fully
it's effective against carapace armor
You use both for unlimited power. 
Just came back after a hiatus, to check out the new patch. What's people's favorite build?
i do :v hold it down all the way
finally, energy crisis completely solved
it used to be the smite blitz before, but it's an elite stain removal tool now
Grim news for psyker?
you just throw our full charge bolts down-range nonstop
Nah there's too much stuff tbh
If a bunch of crushers, ragers etc. rush your team you smite them and if it's just one or two you can delete them with the surge staff
You should check pygex guide
surge staff also has incredibly forgiving aimbot attached to it
I feel like the surge staff could use a buff in its dmg, it feels awful when you need to do 2 or even 3 full charges to kill something, especially after they buffed health of some enemies
The meta has changed
sounds great then
incoming 125% damage buff
🫡
Yea just wanted to have an idea what to try out.
no ammo aimbot weapon that deals the same damage as revolver/plasma pistol?
Meta sword is duelling Mk4 with uncanny shred / rampage
Assail and smite are excellent
125% dmg buff, but you also take 25% increased incoming dmg
as if youd even get hit by anything running surge and smite
I run BB, Shriek and EP with Surge Staff and Dueling Sword Mk IV.
piss down hordes with psy-flames, then occasionally flood elites'/specialists' heads with the finer details of Bionicle lore until their head pops
nurgle's blessing buffed
Scrier is sick with a gun like the columnus iag (shredder on steroids)
real
I love the shield, but lately been shrieking a lot more due to the ability to create space on demand when SHTF
I would like a smol bump to damage. 10% extra, and +2 chains.
it's like a bullrush that doesn't make me dive head-first into a mosh pit
that would be very nice yes
what if ogryn psyker
what do you mean by that?
i like shriek because it saves me when i blow myself up from spending the entire time at 80%+ peril for nexus
they already are. the rock is an assail shard, in reality.
as in the part about elite stain removal
ogryn psyker + green paint
the surge staff essentially worked the way that the smite blitz ability works now.
but now it's like a stain removing chemical if elites were brown stains on the proverbial underwear of the imperium
very spammy.
wait spammy?
just want to clarify, surge is the one where you left click its a mahcine gun but if you hold right click down you charge electricit on the guy then it does some damage irght
if smite does more damage than surge why use surge against elites :v
Surge does more than smite
Smite has a massive cc component and can hit a crazy number of targets
surge does loads of damage now, is what im trying to say
and smite does what surge used to do, essentially.
Gotcha
So I got to play with rending Shockwave trauma staff yesterday and I gotta say I really like it
I'm still trying to acquire the taste for Trauma. It seems to control armored conga lines really well, but that means I have to rely on randoms to clean up
Simply kill everything with your blaze trauma.
Blaze Trauma fixes the trauma not having great mob clear after knocking everything flying
was wondering what all the void praise was for, then got this and now I get it.
my trauma has 25% flak and 20% unyielding and wave clears very easily
rending shockwave turns elites into mush
and if i'm not wrong, i can help boost boss damage with it
overall I'm very happy with it
throwing a quick quarter or half charge at your feet can give you a precious second when ragers get in your face heads up, kept me alive many times when things go bad
I do rather enjoy that aspect, its nice how versatile the aoe circle is
its also really nice to tell a whole room of crusheres and maulers to STFD
my only qualm with blazing trauma, is its reliance on critical hitting then again I don't much like many crit reliant builds in other games either
if it just set people on fire, w/o the crit, you'd probably call it op but i'd like it alot more
what exactly is "blaze trauma"
trauma staff with blazing spirit on a crit build
Ah!
Here is the build I am using
using a force sword with deflector
so I can peril tank gunners
I need to start hunting for the blessing, then
I don't understand how the hell battery and EP work with Smite
Why the fuck battery so much more benefitial to it
I made a test
spawned 20 poxwalkers and tried both variants
WIth EP you kill about 16 of them before getting to 100%
With full battery you kill all of them while at something silly like 30% of peril
Compare Time-to-Kill - which one faster EP or Charges?
Difference is not significant enough to ever take EP
There was something about speed of spreding the Smite with EP - like it should be much faster
it is as if with EP it does full damage to fewer targets
As reason to take it
no
So RealAsianRobot is full of shit like i said 🙂
smite EP is over 100 poxwalker dps and 6 warp charges maybe 70
EP currently is great for Assail and BB.
only real reason to grab it.
I even dare to say it makes Assail brokenly op
Who?
no one of importance
not enough diff
With charges you can hold it for so much longer
And you can do it all the time
well ok it's more like 125-135dps with EP
you're taking the less peril trait right? if you have that, 6% * 6 = 36%. and you definitely get at least one -5% peril which means you're at minimum 41% peril reduction and maximum of 51% peril reduction
To kill pack of horde spawn you just need to launch and guide 2 (!!!!) shards. Whithout need to spam
i thought it was 24, not 36
but thats not battery
Like there there crowd of poxwalkers. 2 shards and there are none
i meant i thought it was 4% per stack
nah the damage stacks are 4%\
i actually never tried EP with assail...
but peril resist isn't part of battery or siphon, you can always take toughness on warp charges instead of peril resist
Try it 🙂 You will be pleased with results
oh yeah how is EP assail
EP is much better with assail, cleave cap is 6 targets instead of 3
makes a huge difference, + free shards
EP Assail = Patrol deletion tool
the damage is nice and the peril but those arent really the meat and bones
what do u pair EP assail with?
With ANYTHING 🙂
No
Purgatuf fits, Void fits, Trauma fits, Surge fits, Guns - fits
pretty useless with guns and void
you want one weapon that can deal with armor
it really does compliment everything, but if you go with void, you'll actually have something that doinks carapace and bulwarks.
or surge, yes.
I use assail with guns and void. 🙂
No. Void is actually to deal with armor - good pairing
I am useless. 
gunkers are bane of existence
No. Void is good against everything
You don't need blitz with void at all
Hertical yes. Functional also - yes
My assaail voidstrike build I use assail more than void. 🙂
there's more chaff on the map, so makes sense.
There was 3 days without new video.. i'm in withdrawal
does wp node work with assail?
Okay I gotchu fam.
Gonna upload some meme later today.
I don't want to upload games with the same loadout too often but I only want to play psyker.

Same.. But i had to play others for melkies....
Melk keep selling me good stuff in bundles
Oh I have like 190k so I don't even care to do contracts on other classes.
I am just anxious waiting for surge fix. 😦
assail works really well with laspistol lmao
Do something stupid, like recon with taxe
Good roll? I think ghost could be good tbh. Just keep popping heads, right?
Provided they are capable of untangling their spaghetti code. Or having will to make hard descision to roll back cosmetic changes to Surge and Smite.
I'm just annoyed at the speed of their 'hotfix'.
Is this a good roll?
I don't think they are capable of doing it. THey might just have to revert the cosmetic change altogehter. Xd
Strict labor laws, overtime e.t.c. Fatshark never was fast.
I was gonna bring up larian studio as another indie developer with great turn around patch time.
On good side - devs are somewhat safe from crunching
But they have grown big since dos2.
Still 'indie' but yeah they are a powerhouse now.
They are Miracle.
And they are managed excellently by their leader Sven.
Now it's imporatnt that they shal not sell to big publisher - or they turn into shit in a year
Not like CA, another big studio in the mud right now.
CA - suicided by greed
I bought every dlcs from total warhammer 1, 2, and 3. Until that one with the price hike.
It's on sale now but still too expensive.
by the way Ovenproof's addon does seem to report damage accurately, it just doesn't work with the solo mod or something
Tww serms vety popular though
I bought EVERYTHING they sold for WH total war.... well up until they chose to go political and stopped selling in my region. Hillariously same year things turned to crap for them...
Yeah their big project was doomed from the start. That shitty battle royale called hyenas. Then it got cancelled and now they gotta lay off a bunch of staff.
I feel bad for the actual devs but they get no sympathy from me for how they handled their golden goose.
Space marine 2 also got delayed nooooo
It's actually good news.
Kinda yeah since it did seem like there were not enough contents.
There were barely any trailers/gameplays and it's the same area since the reveal.
Any AAA game should be delayed at least 6 months or better year before realising. Last 10 years showed it to us
Time travel or coma or cryo-sleep are your friends then 🙂
Yeah even BG3 was released too early. Act 3 is just not as good as act 1. But they needed the money I think.
When you upgrade an item and get a blessing, that blessing level stays there period right? Doesnt matter if u further consecrate the weapopn
Yes it stays
if we all throw boat loads of cash at Sabre then we should get it earlier
you all go first, then I'll pitch in
so the best way is to keep farming blue staffs and upgrading them with minimal plasteel to blue and looking for perks that way
That's one way to try it. Half-gamble crafting to Blue to see if you get at least 1 good perk or Blessing and only then carry on.
then you end up with 0 plasteel and 1000000 diamantine
is this scuffed?
But if you craft normally - same thing will happen regardless
Still worth a shot. But chance are VERY low
High risk gamble
You need 1 good perk and 1 good blessing or it will be just meh.
Stats distribution are way too good
That's why still worth a shot
on a scale of 1 to 10 how bad is scriers gaze?
its important to get a high base rating on your weapon to start with for higher chance for high tier perks and blessings
like a 5
but its not great on most staff builds
melee gaze doable?
ye
i saw that example build of melee but its with creeping flames which is dont like
Its great on a gunker build
Creeping flames me crutch 
I use it on a asssail build going into disrupt destiny and i crit very often.
Till i dont
GG /cry
Xd
should i change the melee damage to something else like maniac or get tier 4 slaughter?
I’d definitely swap out the horde perk to something else
Slaughterer 3 is fine
And Shred is not ideal, but it’s better than nothing
thank you, shred is not ideal, but has been working out well since i am playing a crit build
Thank you for new video 🙂
Which mode are you usung to change color of highlight enemies?
wtf backtracked a tiny bit for a medicae charge, I had 3/4 HP. On the way back to my team I got fucked by a sniper/mutant and poxburster/flamer. Had 1/4 HP when I met back up with my team.
Normal day in Tertium 🙂
"hehe HEY CHECK THIS OUT!
" - Ai Director after you healing up.
Avoiding going close to spawn doors to avoid stealth poxbusters exploding right into face - became my habit after recent patches. Ai Director being class A jerk 🙂
It's a new mod. Outline colour or something like that.
Found it. Thanks!
I made it green cos the red is lost when there are flames on the screen.
Outline Color similar to Purgatus flame for some reason works good. Even if there is a Purgatus in the use 🙂
How do we see our levels past level 30? Some people say they are level 500
True Level mod.
True level mod
To learn that close to you runnuing someone who sinked insane amount of hours into the game 🙂
I think this is still useable
a buddy of mine really likes the dueling sword on psyker, any build suggestions that would let him maximize it's use?
I'm asking because there's about a snowballs chance in hell he'll ever join a discord to ask -.-
I use the dueling sword almost exclusively on my psyker 😆
he enjoyed saltzpyre in vermintide 2 and is looking to get something similar
Well not all the time in battle but always equipped lol
Oh never played that before 😅
yeah so if i want a specific blessing i basically just have to wait until i get it from melk right
could try farming blues
need that deflector lvl 4
u mean in the armoury?
You can farm them from upgradeing to blues
hm
yes, buy whites, upgrade to blue, toss
expensive long term but also lvl 4s are pretty rare
its how i've gottetn all my level 4s
350s and above have good chances of rolling higher tier blessings
Just mechanically wise:
Assail (to build up Peril FAST) via Crit Aura node, maybe through Scryier's gaze to also build up peril and damage, and to Disrupt Desting, grabbing Warp Rider on the way. To make Dueling sword pokes very deadly
aight ill try that till i run out of plasteel n diamantine
ngl i never liked assail much
if you run damnation a lot, you get a lot of plasteel
I have been starting to lately and I have
Just gonna show off this.
So ig ye
I'll suggest it
So should I just get them from brunt's armoury ?
Damnation plasteel rewards are nutso, if you don't have a weapon to upgrade a few hours can easily net you 5-10k
yes
buy a couple, upgrade em, hope you get lucky
Empathic Dodge and another Dodge skill next to it. Comes in Naturally - so you can keep poking and showing middle finger to gunners
void staff , BB , double wall , empowered keystone with guarantee stack on elite kill , 3 stacks and 15% toughness on self and teammate when using empowered stacks
the idea is on hallways ur void charge shots will delete heads in a life because is the only staff that can headshot with its charge
-2 walls safety against shooters and stuns specials like mutie or dogs so they dont plow through the team
-BB and empowered keystone synergy , 3 stacks and empowered BB charge 50% faster with 50% more dmg while making each emp BB cost 0 peril , so u get 3 quick shot BB and can still pull 2 emergency BB before you need to quell
illi force sword is great against horde
just gotta be careful of rager/mauler squads
solid build ?
trying to refine this into my go to build
I wonder if Empatic Dodge works vs Snipers?
as much as I find the walls hillarious against muties, i prefer dome
seriously though screw muties
If you dodge Mutie inside dome - he gets stunned!
sure wish it works that way
It's some kind of bug that was there recently
And seemed to be still here
I tell you what though, i love seeing an orgryn throw rocks at incoming muties or long ranging snipers
too often i find when melee squads roll up ppl dodge out of the dome so the benefit of toughness regen is lost to them often
i can confirm it has been happening to me a lot lately
I like dome because I can drop it ONTOP of gunners
screws them over, and makes it safe for zealot
rocks is my main stay great to long arm muties or dogs before they are even in range of the team
rock is truly the best friend
Since it's not reported (have not seeing any report on forums) it probably will be a while before it fixed
hmmm 2 walls works against dogs tho
as horrible as this will sound, smite works better vs dogs
but you'd give up bb
dogs en masee will eat the hp of the wall
for dogs if i got emp stacks i just bb them
Gunners are mostly safe. It's shotgunners who remain the menace
that's who i primarily drop it on lol
screw shotgunners
if is hunting grounds i just spam void canon
for hunting grounds i use smite to net all the dogs and hold em while team kills
They don't respect melee. Shooting you in the face few times before actually switching to melee weapons
problem with them is getting knockbacked into dangerous things
they really dont but thankfully inside the bubble they're basically neutered
is not just that even when u are shooting back if u dont kill em fast they can shoot u into an overhead slam or a monster
I drop the bubble, then trauma staff them into pieces
depending on buff stacks i can two or one shot them
wall and void canon them is what i am doing
worth taking? What are infested enemies?
Brain rupture counts as range damage right?
the only problem i see with wall is the size , cant protect the side
no i dont think it does... at least not for the psyker node
the ranged damage increase psyker node is... weird
I also love how Dome plugs Nurgle Beast ability to Vomit. You can stand face to face it 🙂 And it will be helpless stucked in it's script to vomit on you
yes this is king imo BUT walls can do it too
if i spent 2 charge for wall then i will be bare because i run emp keystone instead of warp siphon so i dont have another wall in case something worse comes
that kinda sucks. but thanks for that. been searching for answers for like 20 minutes now lol
yeah so the ranged psyker node DOES work on the LMB staff projectile... but doesn't work on the RMB ones..

I have no idea why
infested enemies are like pox walkers, the zombies you see in hordes
oh yeah wall also works against bombers
I picked it up, will get BM and replace the infested with maniac
thats really disappointing.
good choices
you are telling me, i wanted to take it instead of the elite 5% damage node for an increase to my dps until I tested it and went, "hold the phone."
Time to test this out
nvm this weapon kinda meh
Blood for the emperor, skulls for the throne?
Blood for the throne, skulls for the emperor
infested type is poxbursters, pox hounds and pox walkers
nto really what I want for a tacaxe
yeah
Is there an advantage to Gun psyker? Why not just play veteran for guns?
Because psyker is cooler.
We have a HAT!
And veteran's tree is really bad.
We have the added ability to blow up on command
And we had a best Penance ever - to blow up taking 3 (or was it 4) Elites/Special with us
no voices in ur head
Voices are not every psyker package deal
Psyker has a massive amount of free crit, and a blitz that can cover the gun weaknesses.
Yeah it's assail.
Basically another free gun.
So you don't even have to use your actual range weapon.
Yeah assail is overpowered. Kill 10 gunners spamming assail in 5 seconds.
scriers psyker is way better than marksman vet
been rolling traumas and these are the best what I have got. Any advice what to swap on 'em? I thin rolling into 1. Rending + Channelling; 2. Rending + Flurry and 3. Nexus + Blazing Spirit. Perks are +flak and +maniac. Please, correct if I am planning to do something stupid
big if real
does this tree makes sense for an EP assail loadout?
I'm thinking maybe running surge with it
So I am checking out mods and found this. Now, I did hear that assail is not ideal for higher difficulties, but I am baffled seeing smite mentioned in negative manner. I was under the impression that stunlocking the entire map makes teammates happy, not the other way around.
i wouldnt waste the first two points on the left keystone path
some people don't like certain things, let them be
folks still think assail's overpowered? zamn.
also get soulstealer, it is incredibly strong with assail
I've read the opposite.
What would you say is the dump stat on Trauma?
and get perfect timing if you're running something with decent crit
assail is fine for higher difficulties. (you can run it quite well on the highest difficulty, auric maelstrom (damnation). if content is trivialised, and people are playing for difficulty rather than rewards it makes sense it would be unenjoyable
Iv seem assail as more of a utility than overpowered it just seems if a person runs assail they dont used any of their kit, not applying to all folks just some.
I really like where assail is, tbh. I don't like running guns, so it lets me smoke pesky gun squads without having to crawl on all fours until my brainbursts go off
but otherwjse it's tame as hell
it's worth giving up PC?
Although, now I am seeing that the mod that uses this description is quite based, lol
ye its a joke mod
ye
This is me. 
thought you saw that part lol
Nah, did not finish reading at first 
no, perilous combustion is really good. i mean you should drop these 2 points
which would give you 2 points for soulstealer and perfect timing
and if you take perfect timing you could drop battle meditation for maleficifent whatever
the one that gives warp damage for non-warp kills
although that one depends a bit on your loadout/playstyle
thamk, I think I'll also switch over to venting because I will kms with surge otherwise 
thats fair
Surge fix when 
venting is still really good
i just like watching everyone soulblaze 
also i EP buffs assail by adding +3 pierces right?
yeah i believe so
and fatshark didn't think that's kinda important to mention 
malefic momentum is my favorite disney movie

also had a weird game where warp flurry on my surge staff triggered but never made it charge faster 
not sure what happened
turn off and on again
Surge staff but I did a lot of warpfire damage. Still sad with this arms targeting though.
not... even a joke, sometimes my surge staff behaves weird, unequip and equip again "fixes" weird shenanigans
yeah testing it in psykhenarium
it's straight up not working
lemme unquip and reequip it
ok it's working again lmao
tf
Told ya
assail gets the pierce through he sub node attached to it
eh
lmaoo yes
i can never get the names right of stuff in this game
them renaming everything with patch 13 had me in shambles
Which dmg perk should I run?
get fished!
what trees are yall liking for Assail builds for Damnation? Build I had wasnt great but didnt know if it was the build or the nerfs done to assail. Tried Smite but not a fan
ough... unarmoured flak?
big warpfire though
I rested my wrist a bit so i can play some darktide and try my meme scrier surge again
Flak maniac. I refuse to swap my maniac because of FS bug.

It's much better than 1.1.11 but so many times when I'm like 'bruh that was a 1 shot'.
which blitz did u run?
everytime i want to try something funny i am reminded harshly by pub teammates that i need to bring all-arounder builds 
felt that
i'm lucky my staff has flexible perks

shame it's warp flurry 3 though
for EP assail, would bio-losestone (12.5%) thingy be better than overpowering souls (the guaranteed chance on elite kills)
i tried running surge with EP assail and forgor how many ragers director likes to spawn, oops, fire trauma it is 
this is why i dont totally love the changes to buff bosses and guarantee 2+ bosses per mission, and the crusher packs
12.5% might be better with creeping flames spam and void now that you don't just camp assail
No the guaranteed blitz on elite is much better.
it means you always have to bring builds with boss damage and carapace damage, the one time you dont it's guaranteed that nobody else in your team will be able to handle it
Especially with assail.
I don't think it's much better and might not be better at all
wtf my surge also has open perks but t3 nexus 
with void at least
It let you kill elites pack.
unless you only use it against elites
ok psykinetic aura just ain't it with scrier
Gonna try perilous combustion again
can soulblaze stacks crit
and do they trigger empathic evasion...
HOW COULD YO- jk I dont really care you play how u want lol

they casually drop a "guaranteed chance" but refuse to elaborate
0% chance is also guaranteed chance
Real
i swear the match making system in this game knows exactly what weaknesses your build has and will actively pair people with said weaknesses together
no boss dmg? great, here's 3 more ppl without boss dmg
no cc? good, nobody has cc
when I was running assail with void I was switching back and forth as soon as I got back to 10 and frequently I didn't have stacks for that kind of loop with the elites node
there was a plasma gun vet in the team though
when the assail EP description says "does not consume any charges"
what tf does that mean?
To be desired.
truly the toolest of tips
I don't recommend EP for anything that isn't Brain Burst tbh
Your Assails become insane with DD and Smite quite frankly needs nothing
do you pretty much take an EP build tree but run DD instead or do you spec into different things across whole tree?
Honestly I've been doing one build for like a week now.
With Deimos and Laspistol
Oh, one of those nodes is wrong
Whatever is under Mind in Motion is meant to be weakspot hit node on DD
I am truely incapable of accepting the occasional failure in damnation pugs
I don't know why I keep doing this to myself
is this good enough for now?
what should i have done differently? in the perks, i rerolled the +2 stam for the crit chance.
Mk4 Dueling Sword: Shred or Precognition? Already has Uncanny Strike
guys im gonna make a flesh tearer knife, infernus laspistol and perilous combustion build
so psyker can have all the damage over time
Sounds fun
throw_more_dots.avi
Notice of Build Acquisition
lost match cuz i exploded like an idiot, voidstrike op pls nerf 
could've been a 600k game nonetheless
o well
PC ends up being the better pick between PC, psykinetic aura and malefic momentum i feel
i just don't do enough melee for MM to be good
man, a few matches with psyker and my wrist is just gone bros
time to hit up the doctor... 
I do love me some Voidstrike
Surge is cooler but not when it's broken.
I can't play trauma all the time it requires too much brain power.
how do you play surge? seems like it does piss for damage unless im missing vital perks
Surge staff makes use of smite skills
it's weird rn because of the bug that makes your damage basically random
The bug is a major issue atm
but you need to stack a lot of buffs up for the damage to be good
Needs to be fixed ASAP
My surge build. Nearly 900k damage
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sb_mKN2vr-I
Please FS just fix this. All because you wanted some 'cosmetic change'.
Patch 1.1.12
Refinery Delta-17 · Disruption · Damnation · Hi-Intensity Nurgle-Blessed Hunting Grounds (Cooldowns Reduced)
Loadout: Illisi Force Sword / Smite / Surge Staff
00:00 Build
01:48 Game Starts
Without bug maybe even nearly 1 mil.
Warp Nexus/Flurry are the way to go for sure though
Outside of fixing the bug, I do wish the chain dealt more damage
Doesn’t even kill chaff, which is wild
I miss the +1 chain.
use the creeping flames build if you want big dmg number
if you want to feel like you're on drugs, join me on the scrier side
there's an unused surge blessing for +1 chain, complete trash unless it does more damage
It should absolutely do more damage
Aside from the random hit bug being fixed, Surge definitely needs some touching up
The bugged ep surge was bonker what you mean? D:
Also yeah EP Surge was nuts
Not when surge had ep boosting.
Can any of you fine wizards help another one out with some Penances?
What i mean is that the voidstrike did more than the bugged EP surge in terms of damage, clear, cc, cleave and overall effectiveness 😛
It’s Malific Monstorum isn’t it
More horde clear perhaps but pure elites/specials damage the ep surge was nut.
Yeah i've been trying Cliffhanger but at this rate I want to hang myself from a cliff instead
there's a specific spot for cliffhanger
There’s a particular one you can farm
you can just hold smite
Yeah, have you tried revolver on a marksman vet?
it's one of the assassination missions, forgot the name
Pls dads enlighten me, Ive watched the youtube vids n shit but no luck
Youtubers will not help you
How does this relate to psyker?
Too busy trying to clickbait
Glad you asked.
- Psykers have revolver
- Revolver outpaces the bugged surged staff of last patch by a wide margin due to its cleave
I smell an assail user
Yeah and use ammo and have slower reload than surge.
Oh no. ammo?!
👁️👃👁️
EP surge absolutely destroyed Revolver I dunno what to tell you
lol
Didn’t need to proc rending or anything of the sort
Just RMB LMB and most things died
Yeah I played revolver psyker and ep surge was the most broken specials/elites killing meme ever.
And that which it didn’t kill were CC’d
I've tried it on the Chasm raid and Esp Virgil
Can’t remember the name of the mission but there’s a mission where the finale involves a hub and 2 bridges you can guard to farm cliff kills
Yeah it's part of my build.
even if your surge was bugged
You wouldnt outpace the revolver
cause you gotta charge
by the time you charge, its dead
Cope
lol you a shitter
Yeah
Bruh
This is with the low damage current surge.
With the EP surge I'd easily break that scoreboard.
No, you'd still get fucking dummied by revolver vet
Xd
ep surge wasnt busted i made a build at the time which was stronger without EP
Still baffled that FS decided EP should give smite damage rather than less peril gen
I agree, ep surge wasnt busted
They clearly don’t play the game
EP surge scoreboard with 2 revolver gamers.
🤓 Erm they weren’t real revolver veterans
inb4 you didn't do 900k damage therefore you're bad
Who cares how much damage you do
some people do
people who top damage more offten than not are clearing trash

wasn't targeted at you skaleek btw
shitters
Father I crave more force weapons
That 900k damage scoreboard, i think you coulda done more with a voidstrike or trauma
Nemesis force weapons when?
I want a daemonhammer
hell you can pull that number without even using soulfire on a voidstrike
Well I am top 1% psyker so I play well on all staves and most guns.
Not purg actually.
That's a really bad staff.
nice but that doesnt make surge good lol
that makes YOU good
Purgatus could use some love i agree
i think surge needs it more though
trauma is good but hate how you have to cast it even 3rd person doesnt help
Stairs do be tricky
If your enemy is on grated stairs they’re immortal
Have to aim at your feet sometimes
Wish it targeted specific enemies or followed the cursor instead
Not this weird radial hybrid
yeah not a fan
I'm kinda used to it, because you can definitely cheese behind cover
have to look straight up to go for hell marrys
I like it now, stairs are annoying but its worth it
On the topic of staves
Port over more of Sienna’s
Literally just drag and drop 1 to 1
My revolver build got nerfed cos the bug fix handcannon 
And also nerfed assail.
I want my 2-h force greatsword
Force Rapier
You mean where handcannon affected assail?
In fact, fuck it, lemme beat someone’s ass with my staff
It has spikes and a heavy head
Let me clock someone with it
(I’m aware you can currently but it deals next to no damage)
Yeah best assail gaming time.
With 2s recharge.
It was way stronger than voidstrike.
Patch 13 voidstrike even.
I always ran EP assail so i kinda like the 3s cd change
but i think they shoulda reverted the damage nerf
Contrary to popular belief, the issues with assail in its first iteration wasn’t the damage, but the cooldown and the bad habits it helped baby Psykers form
Eh w/e, its still pretty potent in its current form
3s recharge is fair I don't hate it.
please, what do i do for warp battery? Every match has revolvers plasmas and kickbacks in it. I can't get specials kills that consistently even on aurics heeeelp
yeah
2s was too much.
I really like how assail is now, I feel like it works very nicely with a gun psyker using columns gun
Play Auric Damnation
Cos I only used assail before patch 15 xd
So many specials and elites
Also warp battery REQUIRES the skill of the same name, max being 6
i can auric heresy consistently well but i never feel like i'm holding in A damnation and dont want to do that to lads
I’m hesitant to say skill issue because everybody is competitively trying to skill specials and elites, and that makes it difficult
But I got it prior to patch 14 so 🤷♂️
Auric Damnation really isn’t that hard, just more elites and specialists
There’s so many EVERYONE will get their share
It was easier with old bb for sure.
I’m a Psyker Boomer
Back in my day we didn’t have build diversity
Or anything other than BB
here i am with every class having all penances and not even making psyker till the tree update
I exclusively play Psyker
I made an Ogryn and did the tutorial but went back to Psyker because I deleted my 107 due to the voice getting annoying
I cannot hear anymore protocol voicelines
dont remember when i tried psyker but it felt so, so clunky compared to other classes i deleted mine at lvl8 and never came back till now
i love protocol-chan
We worship my beloved in this household
smh
The best voice
On the topic of voices, still waiting for Premium voices
And the “Quarterly Class”
I know
This is against the lex atoma
i honestly judge other psykers initially by which voice they pick. Beloved psykers blow up more in my experience
when did i even get it done???? i saw no notification
?????? wHEN
I think i did warp battery by accident back in the day
i still gota get malleus monstronum ugh
same with that one where you blow up and kill enemies
it's my last one 
consignment yard, right before final event in that hallway
I blew myself up
and was like
It’s the easiest
Oh man i did it again
rip
ended up gibbing a rager pack
Got an Ogryn with a shield, find a Daemonhost, BB it to death
silver lining
every time you blow up just tell your team your after that penance.
A cowards way
This is a really easy way to do it, highly recommend
Fight bosses like a real psyker
says private game only tho, wouldn't bots screw this up
