yee just i like the new achlys buff makes it easier to relay on myself to kill ranged cuz sometimes on my ogryn some people just doesnt kill any ranged elites
ive seen like 2 of them, both using the power sword
Have ya seen the helbore bayo build? More boss dps than a thunder hammer
help friends waht the superior weapon
sorry i can’t hear you over the sound of a veteran shooting a burster i just pushed. with their gun. veterans have guns. only guns. closest melee they have is their death korps of krieg larper rifle
I'm not sure how you beat one-shotting a boss, but that does sound amusing either way.
Kickback allows to delete clusters od ranged enemies 🙂 And i'm relying hevily on it
vets stealing my revolver ammo single handedly made me main psyker so i never have to deal with ammo again
You kill the boss before thrust can fully charge
Columbus for psyker.
maybe i should give it a try one day on my ogryn atm im addicted to the psyker and its weapon
For vet vraks 3 makes more sense I think, I dunno.
I've seen it do a lot but not that much
Not saying your wrong I hasten to add
Sometimes I just like watching vets. They get hit in the back, a lot.
Sometimes they just outright ignore melee enemies next to them
It's like a zoo exhibit.
every vet i’ve played with yesterday, they never pulled out their melee. they even ignore their melee weapons.
vets have the situational awareness of an orange sometimes
they got that tf2 sniper tunnel vision.
you have a link?
Sounds fun
i feel like this is me on my psyker
I dont think this is the wrong way to approach things
playing vet makes have +75% more tunnel vision
Its hilarious cos it benefits from limbsplitter and brutal momentum and doesnt reset limbsplitter cd
I can't help it
thing is, i love the vet shovel and helbore. too bad the loadout is just for larpers.
been dcing for 3 time within 5 minute lol
It's more that us getting hit in the back is semi-fatal, feels more common 
If what they were doing while ignoring them is more useful, sure, but for that they'd have to not be last on the scoreboard lmao
like is psykers squishiest out of all classes?
cuz if someone breaths on me i take alot of dmg
Situational awareness tends to scale with DPS
Vets when the iron will but the cardboard awareness
yes
We got some rough allergies man
generally as psyker you want to be not close to enemies
im so used to being ogryn just taking hits non stop
then moving to psyker even with a stare i die
Do not go from Ogryn to psyker, go from psyker to ogryn lmao
your toughness should be exclusively for tanking chip ranged dmg, if youre getting hit by melee youre too close
tbh we got potential to be somewhat tanky
what curious u guys go hphp,tough?
i do think tanky and survivable are different
^
psyker was my first class. still my fave. zealot slowly grew on me since the class update
Psyker definitely has survival tools, but it doesn't have any tools that counteract mistakes like other classes do.
copycat
my journey was vet -> psyker -> vet
We got a bunch of toughness reduction nodes, can get a high amount of flat toughness and still have access to a toughness damage reduction that scales with peril
when game came out i went ogryn
I played every class but vet, played vet t5 like 5 times, thought it was stupid OP and never played it again till patch 13.
psyker also doesn't have much of a reason to go too hard, and we have same/similar dodge stats as zealot
all in all though its not nearly enough for higher levels, especially with the low amount of total toughness we generally have
unlike vet who has a noticeably slower cooldown between consecutive dodges
And then we have stuff like shriek's quell technically working as chastise if you take quietude
at least on vet, I do feel like I will fucking die if I dodge incorrectly
on psyker/zealot, I can just spam that shit
I dunno about that, I can make a build with 192 toughness using about the same toughness curios I have on my vet
And still get about 25% toughness DR, give or take multiplicative maths
yeah and the toughness nodes aren't that out of the way
besides the 5th toughness node
you can get the two up top easily, and get two more from the warp rider branch and any of the left/right branches
that gets you up to 120 base toughness
Really wish the skill tree was more like Vermintide as there’s no way for a BB Psyker to get mind in motion
there are def options to be more tanky, but it doesnt not make psyker the squishiest class i think
Psyker is finnicky and zealot has some cracked nodes, but just because psyker doesn't have the potential for utterly idiotic damage resistance like vet and zealot do with certain nodes, it doesn't mean it's squishy
To me, Tanky vs squishy is tolerence for error.
an error like getting hit in melee
If we get into technicailities and semantics it's probably at the bottom of the survivability list, but considering what I have personally played of psyker I can't honestly call it a squishy class unless the person is being one of those nutjobs running 90 toughness in auric damnation
i guess its like darksouls tankiest playstyle is just not getting hit
(i am one of those nutjobs ig)
have nice dodge stats and not needing to go as hard as zealot is neat
if i get hit in auric damnation/maelstrom, its generally because its unavoidable and i get 100-0'd,, otherwise its purely chip dmg
it's why my usual advice for people having trouble surviving is to just feather the dodge button
and to not bother playing reactively
Zealots need to be in melee range sometimes looks like rushing to their team 😦
for me anything more than 90 toughness feels like a waste
some people are just allergic to the notion that people can be out of coherency without it being some wildly unsafe act
Im pretty sure that i subconsciously listen for attack sounds when dodging.
TBF, zealots rushing, getting caught by trappers, and rage quiting is a meme at this point. But it does suck for the rest of us normal zealots.
Whenever i disable sound ingame i start struggling vs hordes
like I had this game where some dude was complaining every time I went off looting after a special wave, and I didn't get disabled far away from the team throughout the game
i mean fair the game is designed around the fact that there are sound cues for things that attack you
Where do some of these motherfuckers think their plasteel comes from?
i think the dude legitimately had 0 plasteel/diamantine picked up
😆 0 platseel collecting pubs telling the team to "stay together"
I recall an empty field in that part of the scoreboard for them
like man yeah if I mess up outside of coherency, feel free to complain
but the game went smoothly and we went at a decent pace
like what are you complaining about
so frustrating
And their damage is always last, as the final kicker. I've never been backseated by someone with more damage than me.
i pick up plasteel/diamantine because i like seeing my name on the screen
and I encountered them again where they complained about me running ahead during the underside that area in power matrix
the most realistic answer
like motherfucker I'm not sticking around in one of the most dangerous sections in the game
dont think i can play in this cafe wifi level lol
dc a total of 6 time
and we barely made it halfway
When the whole team is dead so you can just jump on the elevator 🙂
sure i could turn a group of ragers into extras from the resident evil 5 campaign, but that won’t consecrate potential new weapons
If you win the game, plasteel is the only stat that matters.
so true! i need my rank 1 terrifying barrage!
ive been running out of dockets more than plasteel as of late
its strange
sitting on 6k plasteel because i cant get a good modifier weapon for the life of me
i’m low on materials😢
last stage is having 300k plasteel cause you are done with the crafting system.
wealth with nothing to use it on.
when the commodore’s cosmetic shop refreshes.
I watched a streamer with that much, it's wild.
that stage dont exist
It exists 
thers always wweapons to be improve
Dueling sword or force sword?
Or terrible ones to make.
paradise is real. it’s called the screams of a veteran
If a veteran didn't complain on the mic about bad teammates, were they even real?
Or runaway speedruning zealot going down 2 sections ahead.
there is no greater happiness in life than watching as a crusher slowly approches a clueless ads'd veteran from behind
Simple dreg bruiser can do the job
yeah but the bonk is funnier
i must die once then ragequit. it’s the speedrunner zealot way!
i am embarrased to say there was a point at which i used to alt-f4 before blowing up from peril because of shame
i used to alt f4 after accidentally running into dh’s when they were newer. now i just take the L if i ever surprise one
my rule for dh is if its heresy or below, i expect it and dont care
by that i mean fight it and hope the team does the same. if not, eh, i get to experience the warp up close and go on an adventure
You were one of those people >.<
if youre still running face first into dh in damnation or aurics im concerned lol
hehe
I'm glad they kind of fixed it, because alt f4 would just fuck your entire team
cause it would still take 2 people, just no longer counting you
So last guy would be left with a bot.
bots are worthless anyways tbh
Yes that's the point.
bots are worth the single time they pick you up after the team gets wiped and one ragequits
The rule for DH is if you can tank it you can wake it
Instead of two people left, you have one person a bot.
And the actual person who waked the DH get's away.
It was a lame mechanic
pro strats
Now it seems if the waker rage quits it doesn't leave you 1 man left.
yeah true. i can tank it but it’d be cuter to hear them whisper sweet “i’m not wicked, i’m not, i’m not!”’s
i got that tertium rizz for daemongyatts💯‼️🗣️🗣️
i like how sometimes they're so cute and then other times they're like THE BLASPHEMY OF THE FALLEN
every dh got that silly side😳
There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
she's so skibidi
she’s so fanum tax
jesse what in the goddamn flying fucking absolute scientific shit are you talking about
Why does a daemonhost still speak kindly of the emperor?
we out here rizzing trust 30 gyatts
Is he on the golden throne the only thing keeping the daemon at bay?
the dh is a loyalist, I think
maybe wyrmwood
it's not a cultist, it's one of us that they stuck a daemon into
the dh is a player that hasn’t booted up the game in a year
the only way a dh can be wicked is hitting a sick line on a skateboard
surely not!
hee hee hee ha!
grr!
you're not real, you're not real, you're not real!!!
i don't know who i am, who am i, who am i?
get out of my head, i won't do it!
most pacifying game ever
this is so skibidi
you should choke yourself
I finally finished grinding hab dreyko and got my portrait frame today 😩
worth it
choke this rizzlerrrr
that looks terrible
looks gorgeous
look bricked
looks splendiferous
makes you buy aquilas with my mind
Now you remember each possible combination of scannables.
I really fucking do
I know where the mobs spawn
I know where you can find bosses and daemonhosts
And each possible servo-scull route
and I know what its like to want to ram my head into a brick wall
btw i see alot of hate for the knife on zealot but people seem to be fine with knife on psyker
Lion El'Johnson? Boomer.
people are just mad at loner zealots
Are you past 1500 missions mark? Also cool frame. Rare frame
like is knife good on psyker cuz i been using abit cuz of the guide in pins
nah im at like
550
loner zealot more like
i would take a stub to the head if i finish this joke
i dont think theres a lot of synergy with a knife if you are a psyker
Halfway to cool farme as well for 1000
unless you want to try scrier knife
Knife can be good
can be
Personally prefer saber
i really like knife in general for its mobility but it feels the least good on psyker
Face stabby
especially when ds4 and deimos exist
you pick up knief if you cant have the dueling sword
on pysker knife are just
uncivilized
I remember good old days pumping 125+ missions per week... on my summer vacation
i need a better stub on my psyker
i saw it as a blue in the requisition shop and i was like "fuck it i'll upgrade it"
nah HAHAHA
oh wait blue
My rule of thumb is to not upgrade anything below base 365
I'm gonna wait for the 1500 one
and unyielding damage
it's okay i'll build a proper one someday
because I didnt just play 230 hab dreykos in two weeks just to replace this frame
i wish john melk had something cute for me😢
promising
I think 1000 missions frame looks more distinct than 1500 mission frame. They could have done it better. Oh well it' have not been a single mission so far where i' met another 1500+ one
Oh, you mean The Greatest Lord Sir Darius Melk, Scammer of Rejects, Eater of Melkbux, Shitter of the Loose Cannon and Double-Crosser of Lady Alice?
That Sir Melk?
no
its classified
I'm gonna classify you as a corpse if you don't elaborate
yes. that john melk
So you just throw away 364s?
Johnathan Johnius Jelk, also known as John Jarktide
jarkjide
Jivetide
John "The Jolly" Jarktide
john melk got that atoma rizz🥵🥵🥵
long term im planning to 100% the penances
I've 100%'d zealot and almost 100% psyker except for 250 missions played
Missions category and 1 million heretics will be the ones that really take a while
i would unleash the power of the servo-skull😳
But that ending run is so good
Also doing that map without an Og smart enough to understand that he has to do the objectives is just dumb.
or stealth zealot.
But lmao, expecting a stealth zealot to have more IQ than an actual lore-friendly Ogryn is a fool's game.
It gets a lot easier when you've done it a lot but
I really wish there was another investigation map so I didn't have to spend 250 missions on the same one
^ I say the opposite, those scans get so exahusting.
constant special spawn endless horde whilst having to scan 10 spots in a no cover arena
yeah nah
It gets easier when you know where all the scan targets are
hab dreyko is annoying because of the sheer amount of walls that are in each area
But your will to live get's lower.
I finished a damnation hab dreyko in 10 minutes with a group because i just scanned everything while they fought
Definitely my best time
Right out the airlock. Hadron hates me.
archivum's finale scan section is annoying for the other reason that it's really picky about where you're standing and where you're aiming it
Hadron needs to SHUT UP
do not be mean to hadron😢
I've been running knife lately and the extra speed makes doing the scans a bit less annoying.
I thought of a great idea, there should be a little puzzle for each scan 
bruh
other than the end, worst part of Hab is hadron
hadron annoys me
a full game of solitaire for every auspex scan
She gets super old
Anybody that got the warp battery update after the skill tree patch have any advice on how to get it? I feel like Im wasting my time.
she is super old, meanie-head. meanie mcmeanface
Fittingly enough, hab dreyko is a good map to do it.
The one with the eyeball tree right
Anyone notice that the "secret" to beating the final area on the carnival map usually results in a wipe?
People rush to finish the obj and the group just dies.
What's the secret?
Going back to the entrance to funnel every enemy
Oh hell no
I play smite psyker, that's heaven for me
Literally had two of my teammates sit in the back with their thumbs up their ass because I was just smiting everything to death
Well no, the actual hiding in the entrance is relaxed.
But then the obj pops, and all hell breaks loose.
at least that's what happened to me quite a number of times.
my finger yearns for being at the front of that opening and being a psyker-shaped meatgrinder
Oh you mean the flare?
I've leanred to stay back and get ready to revive my whole team.
usually someone hangs out at the back to stop specialist spawns
Happens every single time, even when I warn them.
its pretty easy to run out to the flare and just bullrush back if theyre ogyrn just make sure not to do it when a bunch of specialists are already out
^ That's their logic I assume.
It doesn't seem to work out that way.
I mean I'm sure if you are on the discord, you are probably more competent than the "general public".
worked every time for me unless youre doing auric or something
So probably fine for you, but it's always a team wipe for me and I need to get ready to get them back.
I don't really run regs anymore, unless I'm leveling a 2nd char or something.
Like 2 psykers in the vain hope melk will grant me surge on voidstrike
😦
Though tbf, same thing happened on a tier 3.
I told them not to go, they listened, it was quiet.
They all ran after seeing I was "lying"
And then all died.
I mean it was just t3, so i revived them all, but it was lolzy.
i join a pub
i see a veteran
i push a poxburster
they shoot poxburster
but… but burster run😭
you can tell i’m crying because there is a crying emoji next to my message. it’s poetic.
Run toward teammates and keep running past them. Let them deal with it.
lol gonna do this from now on

It's my strat. Either we both get bursted or only them. But hopefully they learn from it.
Remember watching the intro movie and thinking about how shit their aim is?
And then you experience a vet shooting a burster running straight at him for the first time
and realize oh...
accurate.
lore accurate veteran player
Something so lore-friendly about seeing people attack bursters only to kill them too slowly and have them blow up in their faces
what is the fastest way that isn't venting shrek
most vets i see got that negative cadian rizz
All the staves handle bursters pretty well, I can never remember if flame lmb pushes a burster though, it seems to change, and I don't really run flame that often.
yeah if a burster is running at me and someone else is nearby i just run away so they dont get a chance to grief me
Yeah flame left click can push
I've saved plenty of people with it
alrighty staff then
if you swap mid surge does it do the full damage
Trauma pops a burster really nicely
it’s safe to push a burster to a teammate. bonus points if a veteran. they have no melee weapon they can’t push back
TRUTH
cause I dont wanna waste my buffs when screaming at them
Spill the tea 💅🏿
I'm guilty of exploding them near teammates when using trauma a few times.
Ye, animation cancelling is strong on surge.

U CAN PUSH THEM BACK MULTIPLE TIMES????
could be a game
I'm still miffed there's no custom level mods for the pysk.
I wonder if it's just not supported.
I feel like with creature spawner as a base you could easily make a lvl mod, I dunno.
Or a challenge mod or something
like 10 lvls of challenge so you know you are ready to play auric or something.
If you can dodge while smiting, know that venting shriek can be used while channeling smite, can dodge while smiting, and know when to swap out of smite to a staff (not smiting 3 dudes at once), you’re ready for Auric.
It’s not that bad, the game just doesn’t teach you how to really play it until high intensity damnation.
I don’t play purgatus but saw this in the melk store and it seems dece. Worth picking up?
I'd get it if I had no purgatus
I'd just switch barrage or nexus for flurry and maybe one of modifiers to uny or flack/maniac
How many targets you should smite to deal more DMG then surge? 5+?
nah, you want both modifiers as flak and maniac, unarmored and infeseted already melt to this, extra damage does nothing for you
Bosses?
If you get mad stacks with staff+one from crit+few from shriek and few from combustion it's going to destroy it
I mean, yeah eventually
but a stealth knife zealot will just one shot it, so maybe leave bosses to the ones who can do real damage to them
IIRC after 16 or so stacks it becomes disgustingly strong
hey.... should i replace the warp fury to a lvl 4 and change 1 perk? or save 2 lvl 3 blessing and change 2 perk? 🥲
I use warp flurry + suppress purg with flack+uny. And I poke bosses with mk4 sword
wat perk do u recommend?
flak and maniac are always a good choice, that encompasses most of the really dangerous stuff
pair with a good uncanny dueling sword or deimos to deal with Crushers and bulwarks and take assail or smite and burning shriek for horde clear and you're golden
I take assail, but smite works as well
its probably confirmation bias, but I also aim sort of above their heads a bit to try and force weak spots for true aim proc's, but it's likely entirely random
good enough for hi intensity shock troop on auric at least, as long as you're on the ball with your spelite game
shit its 2 am and I could have work in the morning
adios
5% crit chance is probably better for the double fire stacks than manic.
But it's largely personal perference.
i took 5 % crit and maniac
I'd personally do 5% crit and flak, but it's ultimately what you struggle with that matters.
i hate maniac xD
Keep in mind purg does no damage to mutants though haha.
That's like half of maniac.
But yeah, ragers are wild after the buff, t6 enemy dropped into t5.
does holding shriek do anything?
A very good decision
I feel like I'll regret it later.
Seeing as most psykers I see have to constantly use and manage their powers like a plasma gun
No, you can just hold it if you would rather time it better/aim it at a different angle
Really ? 
blowing up is the best part of being a psyker
I think I'd prefer this than being a witch.
For Beloved !
Which psyker voice is better?
beloved. always beloved.
Beloved is secretly Tzeentch.
sounds like veteran-inspired propaganda.
Don't look at my level 30 veteran with a powerful bolter and skill tree solely dedicated to monstrosity killing.
veterans do not have melee weapons. now this isn’t propaganda it’s a fact
I use an axe.
Thank you very much.
And sometimes a chainsword so I can tear into monstrosities even more.
“i use an axe.” and other lies you can tell members of the astra militarum
I will shove the spikey end of it so far up your witch ass that it'll look like Nurgle invaded your bowels with the help of Khorne.
Seer voice !! BELOVEEEEEEEED
negative cadian rizz.
I am rarted. It's a surge not purge...
You're literally a schizophrenic man with funny magic abilities.
Rizz what?
Your beloved?
the daemongyatt🗣️🗣️🗣️
Heresy at its finest
i will fanum tax your corpse-starch
nuh uh. gunny mcgunface
Literally going against the Emperor's holy design.
heretical nerd emoji
Funny you say that
One of my veteran's name is just "Bob-Boltgun"
with In Fire Reborn does it have to be a tick from the soulblaze that does the killing blow or can it be anything as long as they have the soulblaze debuff?
Does our blitz get affected by weapon swap? Like if i held my melee before swapping to blitz, will any of that melee perks/blessings/stats affect my smite/assail/bb?
only while holding your melee out
so assail is the only blitz that can benefit from stuff on your other weapons
Oooh.. so throw->swap before projectiles hit?
ye
the consequence of the shards benefitting from the perks and blessings of your active weapon are not trivial
Ok ok, so the only way for me to increase the potency of smite/bb would be with talents right?
yup
Ok thanks for the info!
NA auric is so dead this hour
quickplay standard damn seems kinda void too
How good actually is rending shockwave? how much damage is a 40% brittleness debuff?
Depends on the weapob
For trauma itself it doesn't do much
But you can think of it as a straight % damage increase for most weapons
for a duelling sword that has around 70% penetration on carapace
yes but let's pretend it doesn't
Then it's a 30% buff to 100%
is that how it works
wait why 10/4%
Anything above 100% is divided by 4
Yes
I guess it should help the team a lot so it's plenty worth keeping
I HAVE ACHIEVED WARP BATTERY I AM GOD
"Any leftover rending is converted into a bonus damage multiplier by dividing the amount of extra rending by 4."
quietly says i got warp battery without even meaning to
i should try getting penances by tricking my brain into thinking i’m not doing them
i ithink
wtf
happens with my collar sometimes
LOL
if you’re in na good luck getting into a pub this early
oh
no i don't have warp battery thought i did
though with the way i play it would probably be easy ish if i just play a maelstrom mission
Na pubs as bad as eu pubs?
i mean, does eu also get crayon-eating vets?
yes i will take this opportunity to continue slandering vets
Doesn't help that when I'm feeling kinda bored, quickplay yeets me into carnival
FOR CADIA
I will have you know I eat crayons no matter what class I play
Why did they make psyker skill tree the only one where you can't freely branch out from any aura, wonder if there's any reasoning or they just kinda missed it
the real corpse-starch 
carnival is the only map rn. you should re-check the tertium mission map.
the sad part... it wasn't 
check again 😔
so true!
carnivaltide
I like the map, but we already have enough repetition as it is 
it’s the only map we have
agree
the idea was that we can get to the other side of a tree without tax nodes at the cost of locking out other options
my builds usually just stick to one side so it's eh
i should give vet a chance then forget what a melee weapon is
I'd really like the 5% crit and venting shriek though
I forget melee exists way more on psyker than I do on vet
melee exists if you are epic
this is what i want too
and guess what you are?
a psyker.
basically only pull it out for muties
Eu are really bad I have to solo clutch every other game.
very good, you proven yourself valuable, now get in the Choral Engine
my “oh no now i have to actually play this game” moments come instantly. if not, either i get jumpscared by a crusher overhead like in five night freddy or a vet shoots a burster that i pushed for a very good reason
What is Choral Engine that sounds cool
they boutta have a willy wonka ahh death scene
🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶
I would love to be placed in a device or perhaps even a contraption of some kind
stuck in the Thingamajig
A doohicky some might say
placed in the wutchimakallit
The Peeler from Kenshi
i play quickplay damnation, na is not very good either 
gun-only veteran jumpscare
what do you expect from a veteran ideally
had a vet earlier in a maelstrom that seemed unprepared for the difficulty, and he'd just walk slowly aiming down sights with a bolter, and shooting at things as they got close. he went down a lot and eventually just left, the bot that replaced him was immediately more valuable
i went down the right side of the vet tree with my main vet build and i use the melee more than my gun
them to not make cadia their whole personality, have them know a pushed poxburster shouldn’t be shot, have them crank 90’s and share chug jugs, have them use melee weapons, enjoy weezer every now and then
where do i start on veterans
i fucking love the devil's claw parry
sounds like things newbies do on every class
not on mine
the other day i had like 4 ragers attacking me and i just spammed the parry the whole time
beautiful
protocol this, protocol that.
protocol says to get some bitches‼️💯🗣️🗣️
really need a mod that replaces the parry noise with a stock slap sound
why dont u try pro to calling some hoes
replace the parry animation with the ogryn slap
Parry is so damn good.
People sleep on the devils claw.
i got that atoma prime rizz😳
the sword disappears and a giant hand comes out of left field
It works
Even funnier is parrying a plague ogryn
what a good weapon action
yeah but the timing is a bit odd. gotta do it right at the hammer lands
skibidi
you can also parry those annoying kicks that flamers do
Too bad you can't parry a knife zealot out of your strike team.
I am the knife.
i am john knife zealot, ceo of knife zealots
but i run around collecting plasteel instead of trying to solo the map
i am a diamantine inspector
750+ plasteel missions my beloved
i hate being low on mats😭
is surge better than void strike?
like they both seem to do similar things
I'm new btw
they do completely different things with the right click
yeah but surge does CC and void does line splash
surge also aimlocks really easily and void wants a headshot
fart reverb until they die
for shield do you guys take the forward facing or dome
dome
dome/bubble is a lot easier to use and better at supporting teammates
denying trapper nets and flamer flames is a nice bonus, also. also wormy vomit
yea it absolutely stomps on nurgle lmfao
poor bonbon:(

putting bubble on top of bonbon is like those airplane barf bags
don't get it everywhere sweetie, you'll make a mess
Bonbon
wonder where Neddy is
Crowd control, debuff, horde clear
bonbon ate a big ogryn and its tummy hurted :(
so it barfed in the bubble and it feels better now :)
the psyker said she wants her friend to meet bonbon :D
his name is "thammer stealth zealot" but bonbon doesn't know what that means :(
he sounds nice though :)
BONBON NOOO WATCH OUT

:[

thats how i talk after sipping the nurgle juice
Yeah I get that
But what’s Nurgle juice
I feel like a lot of things can be Nurgle juice
you sure you wanna know?? even just asking is a bit... heretical
nurgle juice is stored in the pouch on the back
I wish I could fight against the imperium

I want to be the baddies
stick a straw in it like a caprisun
But you just said you drank it

i sip that liquified aquilas🥴

I AM SIPPING DA NURGLE
is this weapon good?
what does that do to your insides
gives me more psyker collars to wear
not perfect so far but upgrade it and see what the last blessing is, could be decent
magical collars, those collars are reserved for others

is that a dog
I mean I could change run and gun and ranged dmg and it could be decent right?
I think they are in general supposed be each different
nah it's bricked
So technically bon does ont have established looks
pocket sized version when?
nurgling

jus a nurgy fella
these guys
is that total war
is that a dumb question?
Guys
throwing armoured enemies around like children for your team to fuck up, or fucking them up yourself with blazing trauma or a good melee weapon
starting to like dome more than double squares
i have always run dome
having a lot of junk run through squares will destroy the squares, dome sticks around and regens your toughness
am i crazy or can I not feel a diff from Rev It Up on chain axe sword
it's also kinda shit it interrupts your sprint...
can psykers even use chain axe?
we got the chain sword yeah
bought this one to try out the blessing
since I was curious
how hard is Power Up to achieve?
the higher you go in difficulty the easier it gets
it just takes time unless you go out of your way to bb stuff when you didn't have to
oops sorry just realized I wrote chain axe lmao
keep in mind that max stacks only counts at 6, not 4 even if you don't take the talent
is that actually true, it doesn't seem to be
based on the code and previous behavior
Do we know what skins are coming for psyker in the near future?
we know very very little about the future
THE HERETICS SHALL FEAR ME MINIATURE VOIDSTRIKE
Wonder if this’ll be a paid skin or not
mfw i can't do anything above malice
Dw I'm still in sedition. 
Will it be a penance outfit ?
dang then i can't take warp rider
it's gonna make me do Shoot Fast and Keep Your Distance for the purple helm, right?
For melee build illi is the best option?
Yea it looks similar to existing penance and free shop skins
OG Redacted Penances set for Psyker is way better than much of the Aquila store overpriced tasteless rags. It also have best color scheme
Took me 3-4 tries on damnation. I just went with fire staff. Just don't use ur ult. It's going to eat all your stacks. Oh and try to do it on a bigger/longer map.
Event Encounters (With data-interrogators) theoretically have ENDLESS spawns.
So with pre-made team Warp Battery becomes an auto-complete. Just start event and cooperate with a team about keeping stacks

What do you want to do in melee? If you just want to kill hordes (basic or mixed) and 2-charged-hit-kill muties - then yes Illsi is your choice.
What is a melee build on psyker?
It's a dark secret... it don't exist. Everyone who witnessed it - get mind wiped
It's used when Chaos Spawn wants a hug but your team is not available. And for boss-captains when your team running around while you are soloing him...
Tru mk4 duelling sword poke does big damage to the captain actually.
Exactly 🙂
Wouldn't go out of my way to use melee mostly through out the map though. No + attack speed talent. 
And-micro-pokes with Shred good to quickly break his shield
Hopefully some news about another patch/hotfix today or tomorrow. Then patch release on thursday or so.
Best part about boss-captains - by himself - he is practically harmless.
Like Plague Ogryn
Only the captain on the chasm map is dangerous.
Since specials spawn during end event there.
And it's a big room....
Lots of people don't know how to kite the captain by themself though for some reason.
You can los and pillar manipulation him so easily.
I wouldn't expect them to when 80% of the runs are complete clusterfucks or just no sweat beatdowns. Love the monstrous specials and seeing 2 monstrosities while trying to deal with the captain
Hammer zealot pls save me 
idk now but months ago i have clear memories of his wonki behavior, still spamming ranged in melee
Well he still does that sometimes 🙂
but its dorktide, behavior AI is still wonki
Ready for the new types of engine shenanigans with the twin boss?
Karktide, not dorktide 🙂
kektide
Well i just want to do 2 quests to kill scabs and dregs in melee
I really underestimated boss damage psyker can do with laspistol and scrier
Yea my friend has been surprised of what I've been doing
He only competes when he plays his blaze away ogryn
I need this score board
The regular one is trash
I always swap melee to range on psyker then just use assail to finish it.
Generally range kills contract is done much easier than melee.
Oneproof's scoreboard
ngl this score board looks tryhard af, but it's also kinda cool
grab or no
charge rate is dogshit no?
kinda want to just to eat the nexus 4 if I wanna use surge in the future
if you don't have good one it might do, you will get IV blessing at least
I’d grab it just for Nexus
Psyker used to be my favorite, but lately I run zealot with thunder hammer more.
I hate that with dome shield psyker is more useful for the team, but less fun to play as.
You can also just face tank him and it’s not even hard altho the specials do add complexity
His attack animations are soooo slow
It’s not tho, the most useful psyker is the one killing everything dead
Smite surge with the fire traits and fire shout can kill everything dead and freeze crusher mobs, that’s way more useful than blocking a few dreg bullets for five seconds
Not the sword guy that guy is kinda fast
Staff peril buildup when charging is fixed based on warp resistance correct?
I mean, relatively speaking yes but he still needs like a minute to wind that comically oversized thing up 😂
So two staves with the same warp resist and different charge rate results in lower peril build for the quicker charge rate?
what would you guys use to replace mk4 and deimos
if you need another melee to fill in their roles
Why would you
laso the fuck you mean by mk4
EVERYTHING is MK something
dueling sword?
yes dueling sword
what would you use instead of the dueling sword and deimos if you need another melee
took me some time to realize i shouldnt be moving into him and instead stand still and let his attack carry him into my attacks
due to his insane range.
That was in psk, i wouldnt be surprised if people never figured this out
i see
As i just said, why would you
darktide backroom
if you have to
because
it's the closest thing
there is nothingabout them to nerf
They are good in their roles
Not at every role
those people shoiuld be instakicked
and why your DS so fuckn ugly
No guard
Fuckn lame ass weeb stick
you are strangely affirmitive about it
im a relatively new player but it seems like FS does not like nerfing stuff
You missed nerf-fest Psykers been having at the launch (early access really) for months. Mega-nerf compared to early-early access. And then herf after nerf after nerf. And only after long time of sadism FS switched to buffing classes
As Ironhelm hammer user I'm salty about moveset nerf
im sure fs didnt nerf a lot of things like any other games
to worry about weapons balancing
hahahahahahaha
the open beta, i tried psyker and ogryn
BB psyker, i dont understand, takes me 6/9 seconds to kill something people just rush and melee
i didnt buy the game until p13.
i dont like VT as well, to me feels like l4d2 but you spam right click
Bb was nice as an option to kill faraway specials from cover
Now its mostly just support for specials that run away as you try to melee them xd
personally though, i prefer that things are over buffed than than over nerfed, esp for a coop game.
But tbh i only use it for the auto bb every 15 sec
Cant use other blitzes anyway because im always at 80% peril on voidstrike
wouldnt you have like better benefits from using the weapon blesing that has a chance to insta kill man sized cleave targets
Is this on void ?
I run ds for dodge
I play Darktide from the launch. The game was overpriced, buggy, had balancing issues, but I still had a lot of fun from sheer WH40k flavor made right, from epic soundtracks to chainsword gore kills.
Almost exclusively use voidstrike to attack
idk, to date i still dislike the environment
its just dark and metal
no cool details.
Surge and Nexus are my goto blessings
^
nah on melee weapons, not sure if psyker has them though.
I have surge, nexus, flak dmg and crit
All the cool details are in background. Hard to focus on them in gameplay dense horde shooter/slasher.
But base rating at 363 sadge
not much cool stuff either on areas you can see background but cant access
but yeah
nerfing, balancing, or even bug is not an out of ordinary fatshark thing
so ofc, if your reliable weapons arent, reliable anymore, what would be your alternatives ?
too much hate is not good for the soul
ok sorry for the dumb question but is peril buildup affected by the melee or ranged weapon stat?
If the melee/rang weapon build up peril yes they do
They have the Warp Resistance stat, that thing affect how much peril build up with those weapons attack that does build up peril
Like force staff warp attacks
or force sword warp powerup
sorry i mistyped the question, i meant if the buildup of peril from brain burst is affected by weapons
Not at all
They can only be altered if you use Empowered Psionic, or grab those peril reduction abilities
Shame, thanks!
Does Scrier's Gaze only bring you to 100 or does it trigger the explosion aswell?
it doesn't explode without you doing something else
mmhm, unless you do something warp related at 100, scrier wont blow you up
dont use scrier with bb okay
why?
i would guess it's not really efficient
i dont think it will receive all the benefits of scrier
Is the achlys combat axe good?
Rashad better imo
It's really unfortunate rn
how about the mk v?
Assail is far and away the best Blitz since it scales with fucking everything
ive heard that the push attack is very good
Smite is better imo on auric damn. Getting those clutch locks is key
I've been trying real hard with Smite. And I still find it the weakest Blitz.
A Psyker with smite on auric Damnation is baller
While I agree, don't use BB with scrier, I do think it gets all the benefits.
But a smite Psyker with shield makes people nut
Which is to say, it's not bad, just the worst of the three for me.
bb can crit ?
Yes
I've used BB a lot. It's too slow to be great, but soooo much fun.
I run this. But too many psykers want to be top leet dps king and forego our best abilities
Ok guys, I'll tell you the secret to smite. Take smite, all the -peril regen shit, vent, all the soulburn talents, and EP. Then you're gonna wanna take a revolver as your main weapon and a force sword with deflector. Charge up EP with your revolver and shit on everything with smite and vent. Vent at about 80-85% peril.
congrats on being top damage in every game.
Well, you might not hit top damage if there's a meme gunlugger kickback ogryn deleting every horde.
Also make sure to release your smite before hitting 100% peril.
lol no
I’d rather take shield on auric missions
Don't need shield when everything is dead.
Everytime I try taking a shield into auric missions I just wish I took something else to kill it.
lol I hate bringing shield, its like people immediately forget how to play and stick under it for too long. makes aurics harder than it should be bc people are lingering
I get it, if you're playing with the correct other builds it's great.
Gives vets a lot of room to do their thing.
Skill issue on their part. It’s to prevent people from getting bodied, not a permanent safe space
But uhhh, so does locking down the entire screen and it actually dieing to your smite.
skill issue on their part sure, but not gonna bring something that makes my life harder bc everyone else has skill issue about it
also yeah I main purg, I gotchu space to do your thing buddy
I just can't do purg, it's another thing that everytime I try it I feel like something else would do the job better.
which is better for gunker using columnus. Deathspitter or Fire Frenzy?
Take both 😛
trauma staff is the best gunker weapon.
Dumdum
I love playing like a zealot and purg works really well for that
I wish I could stand trauma’s jank aim mechanics
bc I’d love to play that instead
The only jank is on stairs.
I have dumdum already
it’s too much looking up and flicking
but for second blessing. not sure if fire frenzy or deathspitter is better
they both proc when enemy get killed
I’ve been bouncing between Critstrike and Trauma Blaze. The mettle perk is the absolute best on trauma Blaze
Surge on void with mettle and prescience works too. Only toughness perk I need
I get motion sick/vertigo easily so I’m sensitive to camera movement. the trauma look at a ceiling and flick down gameplay is a tad too much movement for me
Look up at the ceiling? wtf kinda shit are you playing?
ceiling is a little hyperbole but you gotta look up a lot to target shit lol
The weirdest thing about Trauma is you have absolutely INSANE range if you’re aiming below yourself
It's a targeted pbaoe, what's wrong with it?
it’s a really fun staff I just cant stand the aiming
But if you want the AOE to move horizontally from you, gotta look up
has anyone done the math for, after unlocking the blessing you need, what is the chance for getting a >= 370 base rating wep that isn't bricked
... now look at the scoreboard
Just normal BB can fuck up bosses too. You ain't gonna be top boss damage but you sure as shit are doing your part.
Unless you can hit headshots with a crit voidstrike build I think it's the best option.
I was doing this yesterday and was impressed.
It’s no Thammer or plasma but I was satisfied
Animation cancel BB is super fast too.
How does this work? do they have to die by soulblaze for me to get the warp chance?
No, just die while they have at least one stack of the debuff
used to be that they need to die by the soulblaze proc i think
but now they just need to carry soulblaze while dying
so is this worth running if i have soulblaze vent?
Laspistol with scrier isthe best option
this
How you cancel it?
Hi psykers c: I have a question
usually is sprint when animation cancelling
Which blitz is more useful for a team based support build
That is so vague
smite, smite and smite
Probably smite
Is it?
i think he's replying to me
Oh okay
Well thank you psykers I value your opinions and appreciate you
Here have a rock as a gift 🪨
looks promising
no
basically unbrickable
At worst you going to have 1 useless perk
I like running columnus gunker with empowered BB. Rapid charge BB for stuff out of range or for if you want to ammo conserve. Empowered is nice for big walls of gunners because it refunds itself when you kill an elite (and gunners in cover will probably be out of range of columnus).
animation cancel BB? whats thatr?
You mean the revolver 
Which speaking of the laspistol, i actually dont have one for my gunker. Never learned what blessings to use on it
switch away from BB and right back to it after it goes off to be able to do it again right away instead of waiting for the animation.
yeah but that sounds like its not intended. just to be safe. anyways imma test that out in psykanium
There's entire melee combos that revolve around some form of animation canceling.
animation canceling has been a thing for a long time. it is a feature
yeah I know. its just that one aspect of animation cancel seems unintended but who am I to judge. imma still use it while its still there
people cast cancel/reload cancel all the time. Its more of a sign of skill to do often
It's kinda like on the combat knife, if you do the special then just tap your attack button you get a full on heavy attack.
Do you can find this cadence to get rreealllyyyy fast heavy attacks on the combat knife.
yeah point boing is that one thing that can be animation cancelled seems unintended. doesnt mean to say im invalidating ALL things that can be animation cancelled
but good tip nonetheless
Fatshark allows macros soooo....
using macros is a level of autism i cant get into
Depends on the weapons you use.
Guns mainly 
yeah but I thought its intended cause theres a belssing to proc more crit chance when doing special attacks
Try using a laspistol with increased fire rate for a hundred hours and we'll see what your opionion is then.
laspitol does hurt to use. and im trying to get it to work with my gunker
Or i can use a revolver and just kill the specials in 1 shot
There's a reason most games have moved away from super click heavy things.
Have you seen what a laspistol does to bosses with burn stacks? Shits hilarious.
revolver works in pretty much any build. id rather use something else.
Havent. I dont know if raking fire is good on laspistol for the psyker
you wont be able to kill the crusher in 1 shot
Raking fire can always be good.
I use raking fire on my zealot cause i do get behind enemies then more easily. Psyker, i have to be more careful
as a psyker it vary situation if you can get behind your enemy
Watch revolver get nerfed so hard next patch
They would just need to remove it as a weapon.
they gonna nerf laspistol instead
wouldn't really be a point to it.
Why would revolver get nerfed
Or nerf recon lasguns some more 😛
