Yeah if you do anything with psyker
not on psyker :v
7.5% on warp kill only :(
quietude
i have more plasteel than scrooge mcduck
mettle
still a full bar with ass ail even without quietude
its so fuckin free
im here to mow the crowd like its a lawn
mettle is per shot?
A ton of toughness + instant stam regen
or per target hit
Makes for being very aggro
target pretty sure
i shoot a voidstrike down a horde and i only regen like 50% of my toughness :(
👛
mettle is per target hit
Dawg do you realize that literally ANY KILL with a staff or charged sword will give you toughness? Soul blaze even counts for it.
and has no ICD
If you swing a charged illisi
what about soul stealer @spice veldt
You will always have toughness
same
Or assail
soulstealer is also per target killed
i'd just grab quietitude if you're having survivability issues
yeah im aware
just that if enemy hit me, i don't regen fast enough to cover up for it
soulstealer also just fills your bar instantly most of the time
you shouldn't be lacking in points unless you're going down WS
Projectiles crit themselves, not on target hit.
Oh lol thats why its insta zoomies for every trauma crits
not really surviability issuesbut i don't feel safe :v
give me your plasteel 
just something you'll get used to
i just got more plasteel than diamantine
spam dodges
Abuse the spacebar
since psyker has the same/similar dodge stats as zealots, but we don't need to go as hard as zealots do
Go into negative dodges
zealot ahs twice the otughness :v
Get mad at the trapper
tho
they have 10 more base toughness than we do
but but my zealot somehow has twice the toughness :p
made me listen to trap radio
e.g, you're not taking this one
im a trapper now
psyker has 5x +15 toughness nodes, though in practice you're only taking 4x at most
It’s actually a skill issue at this point, the only time I feel like I’m in danger is when the game shoves 22 ragers and a gunner up my ass. or carnival in general because the entire damn map is a spawn point.
which bumps you up to 60 + 4 * 15 = 120 base toughness
luv carnival
my first time playing was a hi5 lights out with @spice veldt and it was
some shit
carnival used to be the only map, back in the old days (aka last month)
i dont like how laggy the start of carnival is
I hate it cause pubers don’t have ears half the time
That too
im legally deaf
i mean, i won't die in the horde but it just feels im managing stuff rather than effectively pushing them back :v
what "skill issue" can you have against a trash mob
its just push,dodge attack repeat
can’t wait for part two to make its map the only map for this month
need a thing to point my staff the right way
Oh my god I forgot that is going to happen NOOOOOOOOOOO
@spice veldt @severe folio @bleak tulip @lunar hollow my build
sometimes i do the thinking for siblings. it’s okay. my brain is capable
beloved has the answers
so its just a matter of getting use and get better
hmm yeah you're going for solidity instead of grabbing toughness stuff, and that's the tradeoff you're making
listen to the voices
if you want to feel safer, feel free to grab the toughness nodes
but that is the tradeoff you're making
whats solidity
there is a tiny psyker living in your walls
anyone got a good trauma staff build? Im running warp flurry and redning showckwave
solidity is the quell speed i believe
I am the tiny psyker living in my walls
theyre running around those tiny crawlspaces like a darktide level brainbursting roaches
should i change that?
yeah i had a game where uh, i was the carry stat wise
but every other momment i felt i was gasping for breath when a horde gets too near
if its just 2 ragers its fine
if its a mixed horde

or if im on defence area and trash horde
such is the life of a mixed horde
bring trauma or purg if you're feeling threatened by mixed hordes
otherwise dense mixed hordes will always be an issue
well you have perilous combustion as well
any time i run anything that spreads soulblaze i imagine minipsykers running around to the next target
trash horde normally is fine, but defence + trash horde i feel unsafe because generally they have more directions to attack from
i had a pub game earlier where after i fuckin nuked a bunch of elites in a row on gunker this chorus zealot would just follow me into elite patrols and pop chorus and let me kill them all
The bonus Quell speed isn’t important IMO once you get a good staff. Especially since you get so many damn buffs for edging the peril like it’s your SO.
stack soulblaze perilous combustion and get uncanny strike stacks up
god bless ds4/laspistol/assail
doesn't the quell speed help with edging anyway
damn they knew the name of the game
the first tick is faster right?
being 0.005ft 6000lbs i greet you brother
Mans built like a singularity
becomes the room when they go in
the interval between each tick is the same
arco, defence area, trash horde.
no corridor for me to spam. so i feel unsafe :v
and solidity lowers the interval between each tick
oh between each tick? not the initial tick?
the initial tick happens 250ms after you press down the quell key
thatdoesnt change with solidity?
solidity changes that
oh.
250ms down to 175ms
it makes a big difference
even if youre trying to just get two ticks or so
really noticable if you full quell
i found out a way to deal with trash close to me
rmb no charge spam
I'm always confused at what makes a fellow psyker shit talk a assail psyker
shoot once and quell
Low threat gaming
issa jealousy 😔
The one who shit talk always die first
everytime
Not on higher threats. It’s still a massive issue on low threats.
it's still fine if you know to swap weapons
Ah, low threats. Where the balancing needs to take place apparently.
and just have the patience to wait for it to regenerate while you're using other weapons
I only play auric and it feels great on my surge/dueling sword build
just an occasional horde delete
and it's better than brain burst and surge at sniper kills from super far away
against trash horde can i take out my illisi? or better to use staff :v
It’s an issue of it blowing everything else out of the water. There’s an extremely simple fix with this by simply making it do less damage on lower threats so you can’t just wave your hand and obliterate a horde at level 12.
both is fine
coherent choking
Always the mfs who complain, then die , then proceed to bitch that there is no smite user when they are using headburst . 
me n who
sometime i scared to use illisi too long because i scared need to kill an elite/special
I just ran a game with 3 smite users, please no more smite suers.
It sucks the fun away from the other players just because you picked assail psyker
Literally no one was doing any damage other than me.
bubble and electricity psykers
Some guy even complain we aren't doing the obj, like brother, no one's killing anything.
shards will out shine at horde clearing more than any other psyker weapon or staff, just not as often
I room clear with PS vet before my team gets in the room.
I’m talking about low levels and threats
99% of assail psykers just goaltend the melee so they can't regain toughness while not doing any meaningful DPS. I'm sure you're fine, but it's kind of like back when vets were OP and shitty players gathered towards vets.
what is this roughneck doing here

Now psykers get the deluge of shitty players.
At max level you breath and a room of crushers will fall over on anything lower than malice
a psyker with a revolver bb and no spec
is more valuable than people asking for builds
I do agree that shards are a problem at lower diffs, but like, if you don't want the game to be too easy increase the diff
yeah i hated assail players when i was zealot and ogryn
they kill the small enemies which means no toughness for me
then when mixed horde come they cant do anything
Or they are out of assial shots and wasted all of them on the scattered horde. So now your melee teammates can't go in and wipe out the ranged.
So you are all just standing there with your thumbs up your ass
Excellent gameplay.
Sounds like the other players werent prepaired either if that happens
assail is meant to be swapped off after you're out
u have a ranged slot for that kind of stuff
its almost like.. you can cycle dps and cc between different slots
REALLY?
I'm always prepared to do the heavy lifting on a match with pubs. But when they are actively making my job harder, it's just frustarting reguardless of final outcome.
i think it's possible 
I think psyker is the worst class to carry with
don't get me wrong we're probably the best class in the game
but we're built of paper
we need at least one competent teammate
Trauma hard carries when the entire team is dead lowkey
its like the shit gets stronger
On an auric mael? not really. Psyker shines when his teammates are alive even if they are 100% useless.
Hot take, there isn’t really a best class right now. All of them are stupidly strong if you build them right it’s just a matter of what meshes well with your thought process.
Ogryn and zealot can solo carry infinitely better
like if it's a situation where only one player on my team is left standing up
I wouldn't want psyker to be the one
I would prefer zealot or ogryn
I'd say vet's and psyker's role is making sure you don't have to clutch.
ogryn pretty much takes first place for now
shield ogryn chorus zealot electricity bubble psyker is the cooking combo
the 4th can be anything
I hope you mean surge, because smite spam just means your team is playing 1 man down the whole match and has trouble cleaving things.
vet can carry but they take a lot more skill from what I've heard
The fourth is the Vet single-handedly mopping the floor with anything that isn’t a crusher
however they do it if they maintain stun
numbers spooked me
Darktide calculator for damage breakpoints against enemies. Developed by ManShanko.
every class has the nerds that do that
I have never played with a smite spammer and thought "Oh boy, I'm glad I have this guy" 🤷♂️
As a BB main, that’s just Tuesday.
I love BB
on my zealot, i was pleased by the bubble smite force psyker
room to work
I'll use it when using my blitz doesn't eat all my warp charges
(make it optional pls)
I came when I saw the changes to BB in that one update.
Making it optional would Ruin the balance of the class
It would be the best keystone bar none
I suppose that's true
dropping a shield when I lose 36% damage boost
feels very bad
HELPING THE TEAM? BUT MY DAMAGE
I do think psyker is an autopilot class
Fuck your damage, we sacrifice to help the team in this house
That I will agree with. Once you learn the patterns it really does play itself.
psyker is like a well oiled machine once u get on the groove
u can still tell the difference between a bad psyker and a good one
I watched a guy blow himself up on sedition
LOL
happens to the best of us
It took every ounce of strength to not unmute and ask him how the fuck he managed that one
your crush watche you splode on darktide sedition difficulty multiple times 😔
bro if I blow up on sedition I'm insta alt+f4
I’ve seen people blow themselves up with smite. The game does everything in its power to stop you from doing that HOW THE FUCK did you do that?
it was 97
the tech is to release smite before u reach 100% so u push enemies down
wish the game told u that
Calculated self explode to kill room of ragers
the meat grinder lady vaguely tells you to manage your peril
in the basic training
Make peril boom do 4000 base damage cowards
i guess it takes a true gamer to say i wanna test this rn
Let me turn myself into a thermonuclear bomb
let me become a daemon host if I go past 100%
decent staff or nah?
They should do that for April fools. If a Pysker explodes they die instantly and a daemon spawns.
vets get power armor, psykers get demonhost possession, zealots get a rallying standard, ogryns get a toilet
Run and gun is a dogshit blessing but it’s aight, I don’t use the trauma staff much.
the ult patch, coming next fall
fr, im not happy about that part of it
i once decided to blew myself up to stagger / damage a pack of crusher so that the other guy could get some breathing room to finish them
get revived
doooot dooot doot dot
boom
die forreal
it can be useful as a last resort
If your considering it as a last resort option your team has problems.
i think its still a competitive choice but yeah
i didnt really play psyker before this patch but this thing seems to fuck
staff psykers forced to go right side to maintain pace
yeah, they separated from us and i was on low hp kiting the pack of crushers away so that they could attack them from behind
these are the days
i knew i was i gonna die so better do it by exploding myself
if you want pace just use dueling sword
sigma
and don't dump mobility
That’s fair. If death is imminent you may as well do some damage in the way out
ur gonna be outrunning people
i just saw a knife user, die to trash horde in a corrdir / stairs where they only came from ojne direction
he also light attacked the flamer to death
😢
i want defense so i can sit fatly on a demonhost or plague ogryn
and let the team kill it
i avoid it if can tbh, there's often a better solution 😄
pubs are cowards
I take that peril on block perk but still go warp charges
peril on block is just so fuckin good
But I still think it would be hilarious to make the explosion do an absolutely absurd amount of damage.
and peril reduction on warp charge works with peril on block I'm pretty sure
so gg ur the tank now
It should, but the passive regen from gaining charges saves my ass constantly.
stack wounds, make pretty eyes at the team
Fuck it, becomes a poxburster
"WHYD YOU DO THA-" my fav sound when i purposefully trigger host after room clear
Real men use 86% block efficiency
strap in
i once exploded from too much blocking T_T
gonna star aggro'ing daemon hosts to tank it
and fuck up and die
and wipe the game
simply a skissue
My guy it deactivates at 97%, did you shoveblast or something?
That would do it
i did not see the peril coming up that fast
i have a positive percentage on doing this but i bring deflector x2
and i block push often
and like room clear and dodging backwards
and saying "guys im gonna do the host help damage it"
and not allowing discussion
You main the menace to society class
speaking of pushing, 2 days ago, i pushed a dh into oblivion with chorus, it felt sooo coool

Me and a team almost clipped a plague ogryn into the fucking backrooms today.
what moved him
Yes
this is quite representative of my normal damnation runs
is it very bad? :v
@spice veldt @severe folio
iim still waiting to get surge blessing
i see no problems but i cant read
fresh to psyker ;-;
gardin is also an ogryn, so there's that
it's regular damn, dmg taken is not high and he's second after an ogryn
it's good
me being out of touch
i often finish 3rd or 4th 😄
Turning off the scoreboard and having fun
except with ogryn ofc
i usually just do 1.5x more than pub players at minimum even with my brain off but i also have 2k hours
I just want to see my own scoreboard man. Is that too much to ask? Im on console don’t tell me to instal mods.
i still remember when someone was like "IM HERE TO WIN" in vc after a loss
simply have >1k hours
i have more than that and i have never broke the 600k barrier once
You ever seen three players die to the same poxburster?
run empowered smite on high intensity to inflate them numbers
3 pointer
but tbh, i mostly play auric mael with a premade of sweaty people
yeah if you have a premade of similarly skilled players, it's hard to do much or any better than them
and it would just come down to builds and playstyles at the end of it
especially ogryn kickback or hsword zealot
there's a stair set on a map i dont know the name of, but itt has open plats then parallel staircases that go in, and back around to go a floor up
burster there has wiped my team multiple times to the point that part has me on watch
yeah i am not the most agressive player 😄
i'm a greedy mf
open ledge and burster vs 4 brains
quick question
if i have a non bricked weapon, shuld i just roll bad weapons for the blessing i need to rip to save money?
sounds like that one section in hab dreyko to me
though the mats are in a chest in that section
you can do that if you need blessings
this is why shout / stealth / chorus mechanics mesh well with me, i gravitate toward a support rôle, always on the lookout
i witnessed a veteran shoot a poxburster that downed a teammate and threw me off a cliff a while ago
Meanwhile me and my friend are frantically screaming ”THAT WAS MY MARK!” at eachother because we are both running DD.
Having multiple DDs is comedy gold
I love it when zealots run into the poxburster I just threw onto the floor to explode and then explode
there's always a medicae at the bottom and an obj button at the top of the parallel stairs, either way if i see ledge and hear pox i move now
at some point I stopped taking confirmed kill pre patch13 because the other vet and the zealot in the team were always monopolizing elites killing
I actually came up with a fun game called Schizo scavenger hunt where we run 4 psykers with perfected DD and the first one to get to 30 stacks wins.
Anyone down to play it?
Sounds like more effort than wandering around the map looking for plasteel
i am a plasteel inhaler
But it’s fun as hell
i will gobble plasteel like i’m a turkey
cut me open plasteel pours out
i will spin around the block so hard you’ll think i’m minecraft
do you guys consciously shoot your garunteed crit shots at elites/specials or just shoot whatever needs shooting @severe folio @spice veldt
i pull up in my warhammer car made of plasteel
i'm a greedy player and I also want to proc perilous combustion, so I greed for elites/specials as much as I can
my aquilas are smelted with plasteel
i have the buff mod, but don't know how to make buff size bigger :v
I have an excuse to do this because I need warp charges
i just shoot
i forgot that the gas mask makes you sound like a sith lord
All the masks do
elites are prioritized though
i just shoot with the revolver, there's always one or two elites on the way
it gave me a shock in pubs today
hearing the bark right next to me
vader in the squad
i mean i still do target priority but i wouldn't purpossely proc a crit just so i can nail the elite/special
add a breathing effect
Man, all this talking about the game makes me want to play it.
I use the African voice accent and thought a crusher was next to me
my stub is made for anyone that looks at me funny. i would fire my stub at a zealot like it’s pointed at the back of a waystalker’s head
dude sound evil
The savant?
you can do it in HUD Tweaker but it's a bit annoying
yup
high pitched voice mask when
Ironic given he’s probably the nicest of the convicts.
savant fans when protocol says to get some bitches
Like have you heard that man speak with the ogryns?
compatible with all this? :v
huge bench
ye
hudtweaker doesn't have any particular incompatibilities
and works basically on top of hud stuff like customhud does
actually tbh would be great to have the afctual count number in the buff bigger, and then when the buff is ready theres a red outline box
thansk mr arco
i still dont get if the psyker who is obsessed with his beloved is deluded or possessed cus the others are normal-ish
Delusional
the beloved is likely his entepretation of Emperor
Insane psyker here. My beloved is offended
Also the seer is a menace to himself and everyone that can hear him
Get out of my dream
I had a tally count of lines that would cause him to disappear for….. reasons…. and I had to stop counting because it was basically all of them.
And don’t get me started on the implications of him being aware of the subtitles.
I like savant because he gets evil when using smite and Shriek
I don't like it when something in my dream is wrong
sanctioned warp use headass
I wish the line were he argues with the subtitles was more common
If only the max quel Warp voices had easter eggs
But that ruins the fun of the line
I’m 90% sure it does
youre piloting me wrong you bozo
Not easter eggs but unique lines at least
A slight increase wouldnt hurt, considering how common lore dumps are
Fair enough
Oh god damnit the zealots are back at it again with TWBS
This has been going on for hours
worth melkoins?
i cant even get a single base worth upgrading on any of the 3 classes
That’s a sexy ass revolver
Loiter I will string your soul across every plane of existence if you slander gun psyker
8 ball says possibly
THAT BELONGS ON MY VET
ikr?

what is vet
this is so ass after 13 i wish i spent my time rolling revolvers
space marine simulator
anyone know how to get this border/sigil??
An animal doctor
boltguns: cool til you need to aim
Pay for it
vanguard bundle, free if you played 3 weeks ago
Isn’t it also PC exclusive?
is it supposed to be exclusive?
Hi everyone, It has been a joy to watch players, old and new alike, jump into Tertium following the release of Patch #13 - thank you for your support. A few weeks ago we said we’d get back to you regarding concerns raised by our PC community - today we’re laying out how we’re addressing them. We’ll be granting the Vanguard bundle to PC player...
"We’ll be granting the Vanguard bundle to PC players (Steam and WinPC) who have played Warhammer 40,000: Darktide on PC before November 17, 2023."
how do you get it? i play daily i dont have...
is "WinPC" a windows store
they just sent it to everyone who logged in before nov 17
odds are you already have this just didnt notice
I have no idea, I'm just quoting from the article
I'm playing on steam on a windows computer and I have it
they keep making more haves and have nots situations this is kinda funny
it was snucketh into your pockets
Hello all! I'm working on leveling up my psyker, as he's the only class that's not up to level 30 yet. But I can't seem to get a handle on how the class is played. Does anyone have any tips on what play style I should be doing while playing psyker? Along with good weapon suggestions and skill points allocation? Any tips would be greatly appreciated
Edging
Just use Smite it's the easiest thing in the game
You're not able to blow yourself up with it
what are you gonna smite in a malice game
spam assail on low int heresy/damn until you get decent staffs
then build around whatever staff you get
they're all decent
Yeah
Trauma and Voidstrike really stand above the others staves for me. You don't even need a melee weapon or blitz when you're running them.
mk4 poke though
at least a full mobility one for utility
All right. Will try it out some more. Thanks for the tips! Just a very different class type to get used to when you've been playing ogryn for a few weeks 😅
brain burst with psyonics is the only way to play
more crushes please waiter
mhhmmm
You can build into a crowd stun/stopper with smite and assail, or really kit out the anti special role with bb and certain weps. Top psyker weps are the deimos and the macabian 4
not having warp charges dumpsters your DPM
I always like empowered psyconetics personally but its personal pref for the other cantrips
I couldnt think of a name 😂
all good lol
why is there an emoji for cow udders
Because when the class rework was first announced and they did a dev blog about it. For some reason
they refered to the skill tree's keystones as teets and udders
instead of i dunno
a tree
with branches
lmao
In all seriousness though your first priority should be learning how to not blow up. I’ll be here for three hours if I try to explain it in detail but all you really need to know is that if you make ONE INPUT while below 97% your fine. This is especially relevant with the force swords since you can use them at 99% without blowing up. The second thing is to realize that you print toughness like the US government prints money. As long as you’re doing your job and you understand your build you’re nearly indestructible. And play around with each of the staves, they’re vastly different from one another and are best used with different play styles. Same thing goes for the unique melees. As a rule of thumb the force swords are defensive and the sabers offensive.
what the fuk
Might want to start with the vent ability for that reason^^
i still blow up sometimes



Aaaaaaah. I see.....I figured the force swords were offensive and was using them as such
You musnt listen to the voices
And also for room clearing soulfire
@rugged mango if your about to blow up the rule is that you have to moan into the vc and say "IMMMMMMMM WAAAAAARPPPPPPPPIINNNNG"
its da rules
Get deflector 4 and you will become the ogryn now
Deflector 4? Is that a skill or weapon?
The charge attacks are super strong but 86% block efficiency and ranged blocking allows you to facetank daemons if you do it right. The dueling swords on the other hand have INSANE headshot mods
weapon blessing
weapon blessing
Ah I see.
Blessing that lets you block ranged attacks. It also MASSIVELY increases your block Efficiency.
Headshot mods,,, like actual mods or blessings?
Yes
(but also increases your peril when blocking so you might blowwww)
You have to take a talent for that and it also stops once you hit 97%
Get chaos warped idiot
Youre in tzeench’s hands now
Why is there a healing station there then?
NOOOOOOOOOO
Wait you’re still alive!?
force swords are also extremely powerful offense weapons, an illisi or demios with a combo of slaughter/unncanny/unstable power, will make minic meat of both hordes and elites
possible thats how the models swap?
possibly*
from chargedf to not?
or maybe its already pre loaded for the game
no idea!
or we can say the more fun idea and say lazy devs
What in the fromsoft are you talking about
Like, when you fully use a med station an animation plays of it closing up its not one med station
but two
da one we use and the one that plays that animation
probably a stupid way of doing it
so i think its probably just laz dec
Not unheard of to keep models loaded in
I honestly might go revolver assail/smite psyker after discovering the light when playing veteran
The question is if I take scriers gaze
I doubt that’s the way it works given it’s a newer game, it could just be an unloaded area.
Or leftovers from an earlier version of the map
use scryers gaze with rev
do ittt
one of us
one of us
I wasn’t aware there was a population of such lmao
Gives me a reason to go disrupt destiny
yeeessssssssssssssssssssssssssss
The reason to take disrupt is that it’s one of the strongest buffs in the game
Although I feel that true aim is gonna lose value with revolver, unless I’m talking force sword with the soul fire blessing
True aim is still a guaranteed crit
The pain in the ass is gonna be farming another revolver like the one on my veteran
don't bother with the crit damage perks btw. Apparently they aren't worth it
deflector devil claw when
Carapace?
Whoever told you that is gaslighting you
Im not too sure on whats best in that case
i always go maniac
cause 2 shoting mutants is fun
Now if you meant the critical bonus modifier then yeah, it doesn’t do all that much.
If I can bring 3 shotting crushers to 2 or 1 shotting them then I’ll take it
it's literally the opposite
crit bonus modifier is worthwhile
crit damage perk is not worthwhile
I gotta draw my Reject twerking to the new soundtrack with a revolver in hand
why isn't the talent mind in motion a middle talent, like swaped out with inspiring presense?
arent the combination of both ws and cd perks worse than disrupt destiny stacks +regular damage?
slow walk while quiling peril wasn't before the talent update
I was thinking of the surge staff ignore me and I’ll go cry in a corner for a bit.
Well hey if I have bad luck with revolver psyker then I’ll fall back to surge staff. Too bad it can’t get the soul fire crit blessing tho
nah all good lol
Ah revolver psyker.. takes me back to the beta
slow walk with brain rupture is a deal breaker for me
Let me put soulblaze on crit on the purgatus stuff cowards*(ignore the fact it actually already does this)*
Question though if I’m going DD scrier revolver psyker: do I take smite or assail. I can’t imagine having to leave hordes for my team. At the same time, we’re fucked if the horde is full of rangers or something
because your using your gun
That’s called diminishing returns
and thus running out of ammo
use assail
because when you do run out of ranged you have no staff . then its a problem
also assail can just save you ammo if its just trash mobs hoard

I plan to make 80% of my combat melee like how I usually run with revolver veteran
Do you want a sniper rifle as a backup weapon or do you want to help your team? Do you think you need to help you team in the first place? If the enemy is dead then why bother with CC? It’s up to preference.
id still heavily suggest assail
Planning to use deimos force sword with soulblaze blessing
I take smite for trauma of 16 ragers or 9 crushers
Understandable
The revolver is for elites and stuff
I love turning corners into 8 maulers hitting the griddy in some random ass side room
I think if I can trust teammates to horde clear, then I’ll take smite
thats a risky game yer paying
Otherwise horde clear is m1 melee spam
WHAT IS THE FUCKING CHANCE OF GETTING SURGE BKESSING!!!
this is exactly when i tried to roll for surgical on my revolvoi


Edging
Did you mean EP?
Empowered?
Literally took me two weeks for me lmao
Buuuut at least I got the soul fire crit blessing along with it
No. Not high enough level for that skill. Psyker is only at 16
Have toughness damage reduction based on peril tho
I rarely get crits with trauma staff lately
can only get them consistentlly by killing ads with smite first
I haven't "Gotten" crits from Trauma since I found out smite proc's true aim. I take my crits from trauma.
although I also get my weakspot hits with melee, so I guess it's not ALL smite
big fan of assail

So surge on the voidstrike staff, I am beginning to think transfer peril might actually be better than warp nexus, because the "True Aim" talent works really well with that
transfer peril is a case of usability vs damage potential
i've gone back and forth on if i like it or not ngl
it's managable without it tbh
i played psyker so i could kill specials and elites
end up i became the horde clearer 
flamethrower hands tend to do that
atm whenever i see crusher horde i smite too, is that correact response?
what you mean by flamethrower hands
It gets me a tiny bit closer to a guaranteed crit I guess
purge
But when I was in game I exploded twice, where no other build I have I had exploded with within 2 or 3 weeks
having the other blessing that shoots two shots when you crit is probably where nexus is important
Generally I just headshot em with the voidstrike, even without surge you'll stun them, if your team had no other way to deal with them then you're screwed
oh ya that i know
That's what I have, but the 20% chance from nexus is most often around 12-16% at most, and with true aim every cleaving shot that hits a weakspot builds on it
and even hitting a monstrosity with the guaranteed crit gives you 2 more stacks
i'm pretty sure those both add on each other
so if you hit the boss 3 more times, you get another guaranteed crit.
Sort of an anti synergy because one is guaranteed to happen every X shots, which means you could rely on that where warp nexus doesn't seem to be enough of a chance to be able to throw double when I need it
The two surge build staffs I have
Warp flurry instead of transfer peril might be a decent Idea too, as you'll get fully charged shots off faster, improving DPS and getting weakspot hits more quickly
What is the best dueling sword
I like the Mk IV
mk4
for whatever reason, the mk4's heavies deal ~40% more damage than the other two
mk2's base damage is unusually hampered
mk5 has worse finesse multipliers and worse armour damage modifiers
mk4 heavies are harder to hit
that is just false
you can even aim around 2-3 trash mobs on your way to get to the special/elite if you want to
mk4 heavies are straight up pinpoint, the others are more like an overhead
if you can aim obviously it's easier but it's clearly a design decision
yeah? its less likely to hit something you are not aiming for
so that's the 'reason'
mk2's 1st heavy has the exact same animation as the mk4's 1st heavy
additionally the other 2 have more hitmass potential
they are exactly the same animation
and I doubt that a mild loss in usability makes up for it having ~40% more damage
ur either using mk4 or 5
mk2 might get some use if they unscrew the h1 damage to be in line wit mk4
or add more cleave potential
it's pretty obvious that they didn't give the duelling swords the correct buffs
feels weird stabbing a long ass rapier into a horde and hitting 1 dude
especially considering that all of the duelling swords got cleave buffs to their lights
when it was supposed to only be the mk2 that got them
i am extremely skeptical that this was intentional
idk the code just straight up lies about a ton of stuff anyway
i mean the stuff displayed to users
first time in auric who the fuck gonna survive this
Me.
doesn't seem too bad to deal with
beast of nurgle, constant stray poxburster, 3 reaper, 5 mutant and 3 flame
Sounds about auric
Thammer zealot to cure monstrosity troubles
back away from reapers and everything else dies in like 5 seconds
Or just kite beast
Figure out the failure point, and simply dont
I see you had a shield, which deals with reapers, flamers, and mutants
Funnily enough, dome currently staggers mutants
you're the one who is supposed to be getting rid of mutants btw
For some reason
since you're the one who can just oneshot them indefinitely back to back
they leave dome while 5 mutant outside
shouldn't worry about your teammates always figure out what you can do at a given situation
Yeah that dueling sword, cant tell what mk it is
Mk IV
But outside of mkV, should be able to 1 tap mutants with a heavy headshot
with duelling sword, mutants should be simple
The special attack also instantly stop mutants during charge
Special first then heavy
So you can abuse that
In situations like that, i would focus the flamer
With reapers there, they'll mulch you the moment you lose toughness
i leave the match
Just alternate between Heavy and special as its super fast, have a staff like the voidstrike to deal with stuff at longer range, and stagger reapers and gunners out of shooting
I don't use assail that much, but can assail one/two shot flamers?
im just playing psker to fund my zealot build
RMB assail can 2 tap
No
Zealot throwing knives on flamers is really fun though, can collateral two of them with one knife
throwing knives on zealots are fun ngl
My thammer zealot has them, plus the fast Brauto most of the time.
it’s my favorite part of zealot
Being able to have a solution for every problem is what you need to succeed, it doesn't have to be efficent, it just has to be effective enough
interesting build, I typically run the snubrevolver on zealot to deal with high prio targets, but maybe knives + Brauto seems like a fun alternative
snub is my main gun. even my favorite staff is snub
Some part of it is out of pathing conviences for the 1 shot build, wish I didn't have to take loner on it
that's fair, I'm always looking to spice up a build or something just for fun
so long as I can handle most situations I'm fine with anything tbh
Loner would be nice if it gave everyone else on your team coherency with you no matter what, some auras are just really bad, while some are gamechanging
Psyker aura's just feel bland to me, though the crit chance of course has decent synergy
I had a build with smite, and the purgatus staff.
Didn't keep it in my roster for long.
was pretty hard for me to choose a staff with smite, ended up with voidstrike
right now I'm experimenting with trauma + BB, its pretty fun all things considered
Smite and revolver is a nice build, I created a 5th character as a psyker to get the Surge blessing
I use trauma, BB with the 10% chance of random BB
its earthshattering
and just headpopping a random guy 10 meters from the center of the blast is funny
I'm trying to get more comfortable with the playstyle before I start bringing the build to auric
sometimes my aim is just off with the different elevations
My teamate thinks its super clunky, I don't (ignore my playing the game exclusively with it for a few days)
it does take getting use to but I don't think it is that clunky
Still have trouble with it myself, especially shooters above
like you can just spam the charge attacks in a pinch and it should pretty much stagger anything long enough for a bigger charge
ah shooters above does get annoying, i just spam lmb to force them to cover and hope a teammate can handle them better
crusher 1 bonk and it jover
I tend to just creeping flames the shooters from behind a wall. They're gonna be shooting at me anyways, since being out of line of sight doesn't make them reposition or anything, and since my braindead teammates aren't actively getting shot then the gunners functionally don't exist to them.
how important blast radius on voidstrike?
Yeah that's psyker life
crusher oneshots happen, even if you are playing out of your mind it jsut happens
Not at all
One minute you're chilling killing heretics and the next you're kissing floor after a crusher bonk
Usually at least
still remember the time I got barreled into a crusher overhead, was a feelsbadmoment
No playing out of your mind saving you from Nurgle's most silent crusher
i was supporting my team behind then crusher behind
any other opinions?
Moderately? I tend to want my voidstrike to surge as many things as possible, so I want blast radius to be big. Quell speed is where I want a lower stat
Blast radius is negligible
nah man play psyker like you are playing a zealot
You're trying to headshot them
My favourite is turning around and seeing 8 crushers sneak up behind you somehow
Armor makes no noise, this is a known quantity throughout history
Ai director decide that you must die
me when i forget to check pirate’s cove at 4am in freddy fazbear’s pizzeria
what u guys like more?
I'd take left
AI director just says fuck you in particular
Left
eh crushers aren't that terrifying though, i'm pretty sure almost all if not all psyker builds should be able to stagger them in a pinch
Replace crit chance with carapace
guess left then
yeah, better charge rate
but i am spammin' surges 😦
better perk lock
Take true aim
That 5% aint helping you more than 25% carapace damage
True aim and surge fucks hard though
True aim also procs off smite
For some reason
So smite some targets, guaranteed crit
huh, never saw this blessing before, Efficiency
Cause its really bad
best thing is when you're melee and getting those weak spots and a special comes up, that guaranteed death is easy to rely on
Or in mixed hordes, having voidstrike stack true aim on walkers/groaners before surging through the maulers in the middle of the pack is Dopamine Station
lets check the new toy D:
how's this staff looking?
What are stats on the burn
faster charge feels better indeed
That's probably high enough to get to max stacks of soulblaze
76% for max stacks
If you have a better one take off warp nexus, but otherwise I would replace run and gun with warp flurry
I already got warp nexus, but I think these are the best stats I've gotten so far- (i am not good enough at this game to tell all that well)
Hey don't put yourself down, Higher numbers are better, and can basically never go wrong with it, don't need to minmax the fun out of the game just yet
I didnt know you could get more than 20% max health
17% toughness is a psyop
Sounds fake
You need a base curio rating of 78+ with health blessing to see Health at 21%
What's fake in your view?
Yeah while 77 is enough for 17% toughness or 3 stamina.
Racism against hp curios.
was in a match with a kickback ogryn and a plasma vet
had me sweating to get those elite kills 
Melee maelstrom yesterday with 2 plasma vets and still got most elites killed. 
did they play in spectator mode?
oh ya booden
plasma vet on the left, he beat my ass 
It's just top 1% psyker thing.
how come i never get top elite/special kills :v
I only get top trash kills now
:(
i though void psyker is a glass cannon?
but i feel like a dustpan
You're not top 1% god psyker 
idk i don't play void psyker
what staff u run?
you run gaze and staff right
im top 1% uprising
not topping special/disabler kills with VS takes actual effort
gaze and surge staff
like, the actual surge staff
not the blessing called surge
thanks fatshark for the names 
Join me in sedition.
too hard for me bro
i got top disabler only
But as you can see from my name, i am an average player.
maybe takes actual effort like for a god gamer like you
I am shellfish 🐚
this is what i been runnin with scrier 
surge is the electricity rite
yeah

how does it compare to smite again?
void is the bowling ball
single target high damage
Smite is all cc no damage
but. surge looks so lame
Surge my 2nd favourite staff. :<
even purge looks cooler with the VFROROOM
at least trauma you can tell yourself you are a wizard
purge is nice but i can't see shit when i use it
surge is just a taser bro
Ok but
it's the best kinda taser...
The enemies explode
no need to see when you don't have to aim
void trauma is classic wizard experience
you're rooted to the ground while charging ur big ass spell
i am a modern wizard
i need my modern mobility as i am a zoomer
surge takes so long to kill the target, at least from what i seen
it always look like the guy massaging the enemy and then the enemy takes pleasure/enjoys the massage
Truma users rise up
trauma staff my beloved
blitz cancel 
Tramua mains when they see stairs
wat u mean
Its decent at killing not crushers
wahtis blitz cancel
Nah surge has really good single target dps.
Which is weird
technique for nerds
But the bug 
i mean this
tell me more
its @plucky flax likes to enjoy pain from such things, ask him
mfw my blitz did more damage than my staff... 

or @glossy ember
i love my knife combat surge combo
he likes that shit too
you can't take it away from me
No I don't do blitz cancel meme.
Gazer is just so much worse than warp charges.
Take both
KNIFE SCRIERS ASSAIL GAZE PYKSER
take so long to buffer i just downloaded the video
upload to streeeamable next time plos boss
what the fuck are you
Ruin point economy
sorry then i must be made mistake..
your a freak
u forgot surge staff
you actually not human
lemme do that
im autistic bro i'm doing things beyond your comprehension
Hes cooking
People can play however they want. 
I see the build of all time
Not good but it's funny.
i watched it but still dont get what is blitz cancel
plos teach me boss
you should switch back to the psych ward
i am the psych ward
what doesa that do
nice to see I'm not the only staff scrier running around here
Actually hard mode.
it cancels all the small hits and goes directly to the final big hit
RIP any horde clear.
what the FUCK does scriers even do with warp charges
of surge?
i assume your just using that for peril resistance
yes
for the crit rate
it eats the warp charges for dinner
i respect that
how come u so big brain booden
It doesnt work
shlerp
i do that for trauma
You just use the warp charges
Boodenforf your not human
why does everyone think warp charges and scrier are incompatible, just build the charges back as soon as you pop scrier 
his just masochist xD
I wish that video never loaded
all I can say
just all i can say
don't you not get the cooldown bonus from using the warp charges with scrier?

yeah you don't
its bug tho
i use scrier's, rupture, and empowered to rapid fire big things down
anyway behold my latest build
combat knife, surge staff
i know he judging
this man strings together insults so well. He honestly could push poetry into new levels of mastery
instead he uses his power to roast people in fighting games
when he loses
i promise it's usable this is my last histg game 
rip billy herrington 
shhh
We should try tru duo.
people don't understand my genius...... (i'm r word)
that's unfair you're playing the stronger build 
I am still lobbying for blaze trauma buff.
can psyker really carry? or im fated to just be the glass cannon
Blaze trauma vs 2 plasma vets 
Psyker can carry, clutch and cringe
And very well rounded
If you have the slightest idea what you are doing, you will be a force of nature
where u get that surge
any class can, if u are good enough, but i must admit solo carry as zealot is much easier xD
that shirt*
yeh i was comparing to zealot
ogryn is no debate so no need to mention
i do but :v
Premium skin.
nothing quite like popping off a scrier's and making a horde of heretics disappear
No different.
Here is more proof of carry potential
It's not in rotation right now.
dont forget that ogryn got that new tattoo with a new skin pack xD
Whats the issue?
Actual question
2 laspistols in melee maelstrom without ammo vet. 
Dude
issue is somehow not carrying, only holding my own weight in normal damnation ;-;
very sad.
Not incredibly specific, identify the point you are falling short in (whats holding you back) work on improving that
