we had a psycher with smite and void strike
he insisted oin using his staff most ofthe time
every time he smited we had leeway to do objetives
Like smite will kill hordes at all
Smite void is such a cope build
Well that's venting for you
You don't need smite
Venting itself kills hordes

yeah what about the crusher, mauler, shotgunners, etc in the horde?
You kill them with
Vent again
CC is extremelly iportant
stunning entire hordes of elites
Stay cool smitekers
I really wish they added a good blitz to the game
Nah, a melee weapon with Uncanny so the Crushers actually die to soulblaze damage
ok, 1 cruhser
what about the other elites
or you can:
sotp every enemy in the map with smite
so your team can focus on damage
idk I just void the crushers
If the horde is on you, Void is not your option. If the horde is running towards you, void is the option
it's that simple
if enemies exist
and I say that as someone who runs smite in lieu of a better blitz existing
smite wont let them move
and i say that as someone who runs smite revovler
and vent
well of course you love smite, you run a gun that can't do shit against hordes
They only exist because smite does no damage
just shoot the crushers then you have like the second best gun to do it with
Staves ensure they aren't too dense
like when the gang of maulers, curhser, rager etc etc
most of them anyways
they are
surge notwithstanding
Isn't the revolver already strong against Crushers?
yeah the revolve ris my elite killer
so i can smite
the flames that spread from elites will damage the horde, the smite wont let any enemy move
and my team can play more agressive
and clear shit faster
you'd clear shit faster if you did damage instead of smiting
nah
yeah
i woudnt
well you wouldn't, but we do
nah
as someone who smited the twins, and auric maestroms and every auric misison
smite is very good
for your team to play
its good CC
yeah
terrible damage
that's the point
then u pew pew elites
iwth revovler
flames spread
and boom
everything dies
smite lets all that happen
without a single risk
I just purge the horde and stab the crushers
this is certainly one of the takes of all time
I guess i'll ignote this person now lmao
a single elite kill into smite will proc enough flames to ocnsume a horde too
lel cope
i killed hardmode twins, auric missions etc
and?
the build is effective
what you get carried through is none of our concern
you said it yourself, You smite so the team can kill
that's like
the definition of carried
carried
am patricia btw
"""carried"
carried
carried yeah? i got carried right?
i got carried?
or i:
stunned, killed the horde, elites, etc etc/
looks like you stalled and padded your green circles
while your team waited in elevators at the end of the mission
nope
i didnt do that
cause i dont like wasting time
usually its a zealot wasting time
I love wasting time it's my favorite activity
i did well those missions, and now ur coping
mission reward gave me this thing.
Smite Enjoyer vs BB/Assail Fan
ay yo
5 mnin into misison
"ay yo" good or "ay yo" bad?
I wish they gave smite assail charges so I stopped seeing people spamming that shit
But hey, smite does great when paired it with an infinite cleave DoT ability and the most powerful gun shared by the three human classes
Clearly it's a smite thing and not that the other two things are inherently some of the best things this game has to offer
My man, you're using fire shriek and revolver
You can deal damage with your monitor turned off
didnt yall say i do no dmg?
Smite doesn't do damage
well
You're using meta shit and preaching smite spam on top of it
i clearly do
Jesus
Yeah, do whatever, it's your problem and people got tired of telling you why you're wrong
yall went from i od no dmg
to
you are just abusing the meta
very quickly
from "your build does do dmg" to "you are actually just meta abusing"
this build lets me do all dmg + all the crowd controll
seethe cope, but dont smite , i'll keep winning my games, you keep coping
you assume we don't smite, that's funny
we don't blow smoke up its ass, but it's got its place
Smite spam does no damage, you use fire shriek and revolver and then pretend smite is doing the work
Jokes on you i only use smite and accatran lasgun
Jokes on you I just get thrown off the bridge by poxbusters
You got called out on massive bullshit and anyone that plays the game and has enough talent points to test smite in the psykhanium knows it deals no damage
you don't understand
Should it?
Fire shriek is one of the most powerful abilities in the game because you're stacking enough fire to kill a poxwalker on its own and then applying it in an area with infinite cleave and also going through walls
You're using what is essentially the most used special sniping gun and it's the most used for a very good reason
Being able to force 4 crushers to sit there and get shot is incredible
But sure, it's the fucking smite getting you damage numbers
And trolling mutants
That too
Smite is a great blitz and that has never been disputed, at least by me
I am not too liking of bb
The problem is simply that it doesn't deal damage, someone is saying it does and that's wrong
Who would win, 1200 pounds of mutant at 45 mph or one sparky boi
People can speak positively of smite's CC all day long and people who can use smite well are some of the best players to have on the team because you know they have the good judgement of when to use smite and when to actually deal damage
And that, God fucking forbid, you can stun enemies to set up your own safe kills
Because the enemies on the ground don't need even more low damage lightning zaps
š me when i kill most enemies and ranged elites + provide CC
I smite so others may rampage
Is there a point to void strike atm? I canāt tell if my staves are just crap or if it really is that bad
The orb launcher is ok
Voidstrike is particularly goated
void strike is nice
But to get the truest funnies you need surge and for the big hitbox to not screw your headshots
i dont liek the chargetime that is a bit too slow for me
Because sometimes you can fire straight into a dude's head and not hit, sometimes firing above works and sometimes it doesn't
which is why i revolverup.
It's mostly firing in the general region of the head and praying you get that magical finesse, but even then you still can do bowling with poxwalker hordes and it has good stagger for most elites
If memory doesn't fail me, an uncharged RMB already staggers a rager
how do you deal with histg shooter rooms
zap
with a bajillion gunners if your teammates are dogshit
depends on the map
bigger rooms
like refinery delta?
Smite and a prayer š
has pretyt open rooms
cuz that's one thing I can forsee some issues with your setup
If you lose its because the game too hard
is that if you get a team that doesnt kill shooters
then you're gonna have to clean it out with melee + revolver which is awful
then they shouldn't be on auric maestorm
i try to gun the gunner or shotgunners
so the flames spread
and kill them for me
ye so that's what I'm saying lol
yeah its not perfect
on aurics you just lose sometimes and you can say "damn my team was shit"
but I personally just rather not have to rely on team for anything
and just assume they're bots lmao
yeah, i relly on my teammates i have a call on
also revolver has preety good at supreess
but that weakness is annoying
it will mmake the shooters stop moving for a bit
which will let me og in
i will test more my sutff on that scenario
thats why i either run smite + surge or bubble + assail
gotta make sure i can protect myself and kill ranged baddies
teammates can be bots lmao
true 
i dont use staves
revolver can deal with those rooms
the supression can help a lot
then i cna just stack up the peril and vent
revolver mains when more than six enemies round the corner
if i run revolver i bring assail, to spam out gunners
i only pull out revolver for crushers/maulers
no CC tho
i am so tired of revolver vets/zealots
yeah same lol. I think we reached the same conclusions
all round builds > niche except in regular teams š
Let the plasma vet hog all the ammo, it matters not
@tulip trench that's why my favorite 2 setups is melee+assail+revolver psyker with shield and EP, and surge+smite+vent with the ult+dot
I'm blastin fools with my mind
Been running rending/flurry trauma and it's gr8
Crusher horde? Woe, brittleness upon ye
I see some people on reddit complain about losing to shooters or to crushers cuz the "vet" or "ogryn" or whoever "wasn't doing their job"
and I find that so funny
that people blame their teammates instead of bringing a build that can handle shit
I mean, if I'm very obviously working on a horde and have my hands full,
i havent run on that usse particularlly dis
ya i go
illisi - hordes
assail - gunner rooms
revolver - crushers/maulers
bubble + warp charges = endless bubbles
or
dueling sword - crushers/maulers
surge - gunners
smites - hordes
vent + warp charges = endless vents + makes smite do just enough dmg to kill some hordes itself
so i don't kno
Someone else's job is going to be dealing with ranged
revolver does so much supression
Suppression does not a dead gunner make
think the only time i ever take empowered is if im using BB
try 'em they crazy good
they handle every single situation
in a 1-man clutch
warp charges my beloved
otherwise warp charge dmg bonus + cooldown is too OP not to use
I've clutched probably 5-10 solos with the first and maybe 1-2 with the second
-36% peril gen means I can just spam rmb
but just cuz i haven't played the 2nd one as much
i meant in that issue
like
dealing with shooters away
or at least not enough
specially if you have 10% chance to quell 10% peril
so i dont notice
ye it's a huge issue that IMO you need to bring something that can deal with it
happens pretty often in histg aurics
Dude the newer carnival mission has so many open spaces and the higher difficulties just LOVE filling it with ranged mobs
when you have tons of pressure from shooters + gunners
Ranged mobs that love to sit right outside of the range of my trauma
literally lost my entire toughness and hp bar in less than 4 seconds earlier on new carnival map @icy wyvern
at least 12 gunners
all opened up on me
yeah on auric histg is happens way too often lmao
Can we talk about lmb spamming
Shit earlier today I got launched into a corner by shotgunners and gunners that all locked onto me at the same time
Itās a meme right
Well, hear me out
and even if you manage to not die immediately, it's pretty rough if you don't have the firepower
blaze trauma gives soulblaze on crit
shotgunners cancelling your casts/quells with their pushback 
lmao you walk away with less than 1 wound left xD
I will target them first
after just finishing full healing
on?
I can't aim with lmb tbh
Poxwalkers and twins
If my trauma's rmb doesn't one-hit the thing I'm aiming at
Surge staff
ahh
i only lmb surge for snipers outta range of rmb
But Mfw I turn around and the psyker spams lmb into the horde of poxwalkers
And then tries to surge staff rmb them
see i've never really touched surge
and I'm not about to after wasting tons of plasteel to get blaze trauma
just to realize it's mid
Blaze trauma is pretty meta
The blaze cultists got to you too I see
No real reason to swap off it
ive heard the brittle one strong too for elites etc
I'd rather get guaranteed brittleness stacks than possible blaze stacks
cant get the hang of the mechanics though
Brittle is eh
it bugs on stairs and i get pissed
Brittle lets you one shot gunners once you coated them in 1 layer
Blazing does more damage in average
And if I want blaze stacks I can always just shriek
So it's actually really good
So two shot
After the first trauma, each subsequent one will kill a gunner
Isnāt that just⦠normal tho
Depends on how many things there are
thing with brittle is your entire team is now doing what.... + 20% dmg?
It sounds lame but it's so consistent
Depends on the weapon
Idk what excactly brittleness does
Some weapons donāt benefit from brittle at all
Just that it makes crushers suck less
brittle = armour shred = enemy receives +% dmg from you and your team
brittle completely insane lmao
Blaze'll get you a higher end damage number, but that's taking chip damage off trash mobs that are already gonna get cleared up anyway
i have a brittleness build on ogryn that literally beats everything in melee
and it's braindead easy to play
Well it depends for example if a weapon already has a 1.0x damage on armor brittle/rending does nothing
Anyone blow themselves up today via a psyker brain explosion
Dude when do I not
ye you just build it for a weapon that has great stats but terrible ADM
And even if YOUR weapon has great armor damage anyway
You've got three other teammates
Fire softens everything up and will kill everything besides crushers
Brittle is basically just crushers and maulers, and assassination bosses/twins
Maybe you're having better luck than me because my crit rate wasn't anything to write home about
Should be around 30 ish %
7.5 base + 20 from nexus + 5 if you grab the crit chance perk
I forget if you grab the 5% crit node but if you do thatās another 5
Or a 100% chance that all my team does more damage to armored targets
It's a trauma staff, it's going to kill a horde
At some point you reach a point where you're not gaining much
Depends on the weapon your team is using rending is completely useless
i said point twice, brb kms
whats more important on trauma? resistance or quell speed?
cause you do get a quell speed talent
esp if you run left side yeah
left side best side
I donāt even get that talent sometimes, itās just innately fast
Those dd sweats tremble at the sight of my warp charges
@olive ember do you know if thunderous blessing applies to the original hit? or only subsequent hits
managed to get an achievement for killing enemies with my brain explosion lmao
the void clutched ig
prank em john
Honestly dunno prob ask one of the zealots
Their weapons actually use thunderous no?
what's the big brain psyker strat for hard mode twins
??
Two ways to run Psyker in orthus
One is cracked out Scriers dueling sword psyker for boss damage
The other is smite for CC
swap sustained for rending, infested for flak, imho
more stam means run more better, but ig you're not gonna be sprinting with your staff out
smite CC is pretty usefull
both are equally yeetable ig
Probably a gun psyker is best option for orthus tbh
From my experience if the bosses are able to have full stacks of rending applied to them the team is doing something wrong
Iām sorry all I heard was ātake the graia IAG to damnationā
Is crit aura better than ability cooldown aura?
Like when the bosses shields go down we bum rush gun boy and force a phase transition
best blitz to pair with trauma?
also wildfire needed with trauma?
if so i guess i gotta take bb
Wildfire is kinda a meh node in general
nah
But if you are building for fire itās on the way
but if u just taking it for the "Lul"s
then yeah
dont
if u doing wildfire, do it knowing how u will use it a ton
I run bb and shriek with me trauma
Its only good with the Trauma if you have the fire blessing
are you lmb or rmb on the smite?
Rmb
what do you prefer and why?
literally never use lmb
Never LMB, itās a waste
ok
except when it isnt?
and do take the thing tha makes them take extra dmg
its very important
its it wil lbuff the flame vent
like I'm not gonna build all that peril when there's just a poxwalker sitting on the ground
yeah i've done that
If itās just a poxwalker why are you using smite in general
^^ true
With smite rmb, try to stop before you hit 100% peril to have a knock back effect
Oh, sorry, thought we were shit talking my beloved trauma
I used to like surge staff when it was guaranteed quick CC
Then they made smite a chargeable thing that got rid of my BB and now I canāt use smite anymore
SMH
must brain burst lone poxwalker raaagh
using smite made me feel like using chorus or shout
a full empowered psyonics smite will kill any dreg shooter, walker, stalker from full
id say that good dmg
especialyl if udoing that to the entire horde
using smite makes me feel like lightning is coming out of my hands
because thatās what i do
i saved a zealot ass long enough so that he could deal with 2 crushers and one dog. Whit a knife
just the flame from venting push at max stacks doesnt evne kill any of these guys:
i tried ep smite and ws smite yesterday... did not really feel that much of a diff tbh
i would save a zealot in general. a vet though, iām shooting the burster they just pushed
I kill entire shotgunner pack and 2 mutants and a dog, get hit by the silent trapper turn around and see the ogryn struggle against 3 bruisers
yeah so, empowered smite does more damage then venting shired
shriek
combo them both
well, i'm keen to know the differences
the first few ticks of flame vent is 28, then it slows down
empowered smite is about that too (a bit higher, depends on the roll it seems) but elts say 28
empowered smite more like lame ahh smite
so combo them both, and u do about 56dmg per tick
ok, i have seen a difference
the ws dmg node on my revolver and my melee when i was running 6 charges
well stil, smite is substantially stronge when EP
yeah but how much stronger?
question, what's the max stack cap for venting flames
31
do we have some numbers?
i know blaze trauma is 6 with 2 crits
oh mein gott
on a dreg runner, just EP smite did 135 from full
with no shriek
135 DPS
and killed it
The global cap is 31, blazing spirit caps at 6, purge staff caps at 16
especially if u consider it hits the ENTIRE HORDE
i like it when i use my sword to kill the things
do you need the crit nodes at the top (mettle and the other one) if you go smite gunker?
heavily recommended for survivability and damage
i don't remember criting with smite
gunker will just crit a fuckton naturally with True Aim
no
yeah, my scryer gunker will use it
if you run meta picks like columnus alongside gaze you will crit a lot yeah
EP smite + flame vent will kill a gunner from full
scab gunner from full
alongside everything else
iām more of a stub than an amongus gunker ngl
the flames from a elite kill do 11 dmg per tic
i just really like columnus but stubber is probably more consistent since you actually have a way to deal with carapace besides your sword depending
so no, whoever things my dmg comes JUST FROM THE FIRE
you are wrong
most of it is actualyl ep smite
the flames compliment a lot
we're talking about gun psyker
oh wait
that was not in response to me
excuse me, carry on flaming
ep smite does 135 dps on a dreg bruiser
flames from elite 22 per second (1 second is roughtly 2 ticks)
flame venting: between 56-80 dps (1 second is roughtly 2 ticks)? it seems.
iso, i go from a 135 dps aoe, to a up to 230 dps aoe
thats fucking insane!
consider the range
EP smite is more than half of it
but the flames ofc help a lot!
so to all ppl saying it isnt my smite damage: it is. i just proved it
flames help, but arnet all my dmg
i also carry a revolver to deal with elites fast
yeah imagine 235 dps on the entire horde, including gunners (which have about 1000/1200 hp), and shotgunners
thats 1 elite every 5 seconds
totally its shirek doing the wrok
idk what you are doing to get 235 dps per target with smite
empowered smite
It aināt that
does 135, + 22 from 1 elite kill neerby + 80 from a venting shirek
that is if u consider 2 ticks of dmg -> 1 second (which id say is not true, and in reality i think there are slighly more than 2)
on the normal small runners its 120 dps the ep smite
i which i had the propper measure of 1 tick
so 2 option:
i cooked something u guys havent seen at all: (i will play games here with anyone to prove it)
or am legit just goated
1 tick occurs every 0.75s
š¤ smite ticks are faster than flame ones
that is flames tick rate
i dont have a hat in the race but ill check
its dificult to calculate propper smite dps, cause it falls off
on pox walkers it reaches about 56 dps, (40,40,40... then falls 32 and they die)
on ep smite its 120 dps on them
so EP smite is better dps than warp charge smite yes, but thats in a complete vacuum
if flames are every 0.75, and a elite kill makes a 11 dmg burn -> (11 / 0.75 = 14.6 dps)
we don't have tick time but trusted documentation calculates its dps as this
so it's naturally going to be 125~ dps with EP so yes
so imagine a scenario:
1 elite kill from a reolver -> 14 dps
flame purge -> 56 (varied a lot depends on how many stacks)
smit -> 110
and thats not ideal, since u can easelly rakc up 2 elite kills quickly with a revolver, and u will kill elites with smite (calculating dmg is so fucked with so many dmg types on enemy)
those were taken on infected)
it does objectively more damage per tick than 3 + 6 ticks of soulblaze at 50~ damage per 0.75 or 66.6~ DPS
so if you only gave af about smite, EP smite does do more damage than warp charge smite while warp charge smite is more sustainable due to peril resist
i run no other forms of peril
only smite
i have a revolver and a cavalry sword
smite is pretty low cost on peril
sustainable is subjective because EP smite might legit kill hordes due to the fact it does damage that's mediocre and not nothing
and i run CDR on curios and on talents
so it's mroe sustainable if you don't need to smite at all after the first cast
sum up that, with the insane CCit provides
either way the semantics of ep smite > this specific application of 9 soulbalze is done
and my surgical handcannon revolver
well sustainable as in when you need smite (aka when horde + 8 maulers are on you) you can stun lock the maulers for longer vs EP smite
so , yeah smite is pretty good, does ok dmg, + it will also provide CC
for the entire team
yeah
which makes me say, its very good
in which case warp charge smite will be better because it's less about the horde and more about the bosses
personally
i find that it's hard to compare the two when warp charges does more to more things than just your blitz
at the cost of consistency
because if you need to use your F and lose those charges then you'd miss EP's consistency
either way this discussion seems like it's going in circles
i use my F during smite,
and kepe the EP running too
which is pretty neat
for a build focused on CC , me killing the entire horde, and ranged elites consistenlty, seems pretty good
tomorrow, i am open to test this build with anyone who is a disbeliever
jesus, he's still preaching about smite?
and are u still mad it performs better than your builds?
okay
lol
i wouldn't go that far
lol
go on, try playing wiht me
lol
am down to do any auric mission
i think it's deceitful to say that because a lot of things easily outdamage smite even with EP
well i showed stats of my build, showed the post game scoreboards, and the mathematics behind the dmg and how the build works
surge voidstrike spam, fire trauma spam, purgatus
what else u want?
i showed stats and all u said was : no lol
no one's saying smite is bad, i would argue people downplay it a bit too hard
i don't think it's going to clear hordes as quick as some more offensive options
it seems that way, but the longer range compared to purgatus
and the bigger aoe, compared to voidstrike of trauma
makes up for that
i tested played with other psuchers, pugatus and voidstrike.
purgatus doesnt have the ranger, voistrike stared focusing on elites only while i strunned the horde
the thing is that purgatus crits-a-fucking-lot, and higher soulblaze will spread like wildfire
literally everyone runs smite except columnus gunkers who want to save ammo with assail
in addition to much more monstrosity damage
nobody is saying smite is bad
yeah
you're defending nothing from nobody
lel
Okay so, EP makes smite do more damage and maybe even kill mobs but!
WS gives you peril gen reduction so you can CC them longer
i am conflicted
it was fun winding you up at first because you clearly are very passionate about a CC ability
but its old now
wait, smite isnt good?
ive been using it as my main thing
dont listen
most people run it
also which of you fuckers was going to tell me that you had to hold BOTH right AND left mouse buttons
the occasional assail user comes along, and the ones running brain burst for penance
i see mother other psykers doin the assail thing when i do match making

they will say "Bad" then u put proofs about its dmg, and cc and everyhtin they repond with "no lil)
here I was thinking smite had like a one second rmb attack
just stop smitning before it reaches 100%
smite isnt giving you damage
realistically i run warp charges to boost my damage in general and reduce cd/peril on my staves
that's creeping flames
and u will knock enemies back
it is
and anyone running it specifically in consideration to only smite is only pedantic
.
ep smite does 125 dps
ok
confiemed by jessie
revolver does 4k
the creeping flames do like 11 per tick, and the venting shirek will do 40 per tick on the burns
its def a dps sacrifice
max peril creeping flames will 100-0 a horde with no other damage applied
whats creeping flames?
the thing about creeping flames is that it's free while you do other shit
venting shriek augment
ahhh
it is objectively slower but also
you can do it while firing off trauma blasts
columnus shots
etc
venting shrieak does like 40 or so dmg per tick.
i want to be do that hard mode - is a non smite buold recommended?
which is 56 dps
smite lets me spread that fast
and kill faster
about 3x faster with burn + smite
very good horde clear
that is objectively true
better than just shirek
i did it with ep assail, shriek, void
the point is that you will use venting shriek with some shit like the voidstrike, kill the horde while also sniping every elite in liek 5 seconds
revolver
so all my peril goes on smite in case i need CC
revolve rmore less the same speed
Soulblaze isn't really something you should half do
i dont see enough psychers properlly using the CC of smite
well for one no one told me you have to HOLD RMB
explain
when theres ragers fucking up the team, they will try to kill shit with a VS instead of making sure everyone is safe with smite first
i just lost a game cause we had 2 psychers boht smite, none of them ever used smite. at the end of hab dreiko one of them was stuck voidstriking a door
nonstop
you reckon enfeeble is necessary or can I yeet it for warp rider
cuase he couldnt push out, whereast wtih smite
oh - i always try to hold cc, but im noticing most guys just ignore things that are CC'd and i end up having to non-cc lol
enfeeble is GREAT
while u CC they deal with other threats
enfeeble justifies a LOT of the smite spam
i'd like a second opinion from someone who isn't smite's greatest fan
after u hold RMB, and then keep LMB presesd
I don't run any smite augments
stop before it reaches 100%
so u kbkick back enemies
very usefull
smite feels lackluster without the left augment imo, and the left augment helps the teams dmg
its pretty aight if u ask me
10% dmg for free is always welcome
this argument just feels like people who prefer more offensive options over smite or otherwise
so like
whatever just use what you like
jfc
nope
i just take the jump aug
unless you have a good coordinated team i dont feel the right one is useful
don't hold smite long enough for the jump addition to matter, don't need extra damage on smite
u can do both
lets be real at the end of the day, nothing feels better than clearing hordes with good ol' illisi ā¤ļø
the extra dmg is for your team
literally everything i have does more damage
extra damage doesnt matter bc people always hit shit that meets breakpoints anyway
prove enfeeble works for team damage then
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9a6454b8-4180-4dc7-93ee-e817b21f25cc/auric-maelstrom-bubble-smite-support - this is what ive been running except with a dueling sword
if u consider the 125 dps of smite + the massive AOE
tooltips are always reliable, this is known
^
well its designed to help
10%^ isn't a lot
iuts designed to do, none afaik reported any issue with it so far
so id say yeah it works
at least that i know of
There
i prefer the plus 1 jump tbh, it actually gives you an extra smite circuit right off of your hand
There's no timer on the tooltip
Yeah, most people have their loadouts set with proper breakpoints, so the only time I find that extra 10% nice is with Smite Shriek
anyone building for the 10% boost is either very teamwork oriented, a crackhead or a min-max god
So is it "enemy was hit with smite and now permenantly takes +10% damage"
no, it's only while they're doing the marv electrocution dance
only when enemy is being smited
it supposedly will help a little bit on elite squads that you're holding
so if it isnt working as intended, it should do +10%
if it isnt working it needs a fux
but most of the time your team will either delete the elites by a large margin, or fail to delete them by a large margin
So it's only while they're riding the lightning
yeah chief I'm gonna take warp rider instead
in either case the point is better spent elsewhere
it's not whether it works
it's whether it gets objectively value when it does work
and more often than not it won't
the point is better spent to psyker pswagšÆšÆš£ļøš£ļø
the biggest case is monstrosioty but you are absolutely not smiting those
id imagine so, theyre still taking dmg
the weakness of the build, is boss dmg
but i think if i put a chainsword
i should do a lot better on that part
Okay, moving on from lightning to flames
blue fire cool
itās like fire, but blue
purgatus build
dueling sword mk4. literally all other melee weapons on pysker are overshadowed by it
which one is mk4
this is unfortunately correct
i dont know much about htat weapon i just use it cause i found it neat
but what so special abot it?
is that the rapier-like one with the double-downward diagonal light combo
i am pretty sure a revovler can take care of elites
iām trying to get blaze trauma but hadron does not want me to get the blessing ever. melk neither
and the nuclear stabs
Yep
its charged melee is the highest melee hit out of all pysker weapons
it has good cleave and the heavies do so much fucking damage even to carapace
but i haev revolver
yeah, it's pretty strong
well i do have a uncanny strike shred one
- doesn't need to reload
- doesn't need ammo
- you can run it with basically any ranged weapon, including revoplver
also clears adds good
chainsword
especially the fire-venting shriek + slaughterer force sword combo
givees me the bossdmg i dont have
that absolutely shreks everything
the aoe we went over this already
(slaughterer is a messed up perk)
dueling sword does more
only on headshots
chainsword with bleed stacks up more
yeah don't sleep on chainsword special bleed
it's kind of hilarious
because you get the bleed stacks even if you cancel out of it apparently?
or have they fixed that
i have a ok one
its strong, just mk4 has ease of use
i dislike how strong it is tbh
that's actually close to bis
just change the perks to maniac and unyielding
Thatās a actually pretty much perfect
it does decent dmg if i headshot bosses
you are annoying
and onetaps elites anyway
so why is maniac meta
am not using it to cleave either
get rid of it this instant
one shotsm uties
ragers and mutants
manie and unhielding and flak
are the annoying enemies
you can one tap em
ragers and muties the most of them
dreg ragers and most specialists are maniac armoured
so u take maniac
also theres 1 flak "rager"
so u take flak
if already do good flak take unyielding or carapce
it one shots flak ragers
š¤ i have to test 1 sec
2 taps scab ragers (flack)
3 taps dreg ragers
i am running loads of block efficiency,
maniac is to one-shot headshot muties on it
and with +25 maniac or flak likelyl it wouldnt oneshot them.
unyielding is for boss damage
if
but if i tap the revolver b4, it does the rest even without a crit
Unyielding is also for crushers
crushers is carapace
crushers are all carapace
unyielding doesn't affect crushers
there is no unyielding part on them
huh
Anything to swap?
I figured it was just all oggies
i have uncanny
reapers are unyeilding
and bulwarks
and have carapace armour
I'm tempted to try a ds4 but I can't put down the dclaw and it's parry 
an alcoholic beverage for devils
die
true
so true
i like to belive the green things on their backs are jello shots
heretic jello
they a
jello, nonetheless
rannick is half handsome and half ugly wtf
rannick is peak shuddupš„µš„µš„µš„µ
Anyone have a good soulblaze build? I really like do dot and being up close
Rannick even has the pointy ears
are there any builds with both front line and soulblaze?
Illisi, fire shriek and warp siphon is my pick
smistiesmtsi msite , just smite dude i promisse just one more msit, smite everyhting
melee range
but smite,
smite, smite smitemistemsietsemtiesmtmitse, just one more mist
smite8
but sword cooler. it is a blade on a handle
You got a link to it or something?
:)
what mod is he using to get his warp charges to appear as 6 circles above his peril meter?
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9ae04428-6a42-481c-b067-6b6ba3665e06/test-10 for weapon perks I just put whatever, but it's those blessings and that tree
RIP true aim tho
ya gotta drop wildfire
its just so bad
i know its a soulfire build
but you just don't need it
and can get 6 warp charges
probably better to run smite as well, works better with vent
I keep brain burst because it has helped me in some niche situations where I didn't trust voidstrike to reach the enemy in time or they were moving at long range
Wildfire I could see being traded for something else
One might also argue against empathic evasion and "just dodge", and honestly I don't actually know how much it actually has helped me
I think those six circle are warp siphon
Or soul warp?
Kinda, clustering
EE is most helpful on Purg builds and IAG scrier builds due to the rapidity of the crits. Probably only really helping during melee if you can chain crits enough with a void/illisi build
as far as brain burst vs voiding at long range, that's just a matter of preference. I've played enough Tribes to be good at leading a target with a projectile with slow velocity (compared to hitscan bullets)
EE dodge on ranged save my ass from gunner
Specially mid horde and shooter scatter in a room
Iām busy slash slash
like i said, only helps in melee with void/illisi builds
void doesn't crit often enough to keep the ranged dodge up
I do use with dueling sword and illisi
getting a lasgun as a reward by the emperor for beating another round of auric maelstrom feels like a back-handed compliment...
what're you trying to tell me, Big E?
āYouāre goodā
message received: All emperor rewards are now auto pistols
EMPEROR PLS

Rng got me playing warframe farming Entrati Lanthorn as uncommon resources so damn very rare to get
jees that game still going?
They dropped update
Those are the weird spiky things on zar right?
Major one??
what 100 peril does to a mf
Huh?
I means when I desire an items the rng director know what you want get and say no
Same I desire item gift from big E
I build everything I use
Even shit stats?
What does that means to me?
I just drop half a million dockets until I get a roll that's got the right stat weight, or a subset of them at least
then I slam plasteel down hadrons throat until the ranked up weapons don't have shit perks/blessings
1 millions dockets sound hella grind each mission
Gotta use it for something
I grind 500k for psyker cosmetic so pain
already have those
I've only got 420 hours in darktide
Each update new weapon I play few new map and stop, I canāt get more plasteel since Iām broke
not nearly enough to burn out
?
you can't buy plasteel
you just collect it in missions
Mine just 531.4 hour
Yeah thatās why Iām trying find way to get plasteel without get too bored out scouting plasteel every same map.
Scavenge plasteel not my type for scavenger hunt
Thereās time I spent total 26 minute average
If I don't get 800 plasteel per map it's considered a loss 
yeah I dunno what to tell you there, if exploring the maps is too much for you then probably time to call it
As I remember on damnation most profit but risk to run pub
if you can't carry damnation by yourself then how are you burnt out?
Maybe Bad luck
unless it's just stimulation overload
That line explains itself
Having incompetent players
On damnation
damnation is eas
y
auric maybe not as much
but regular damnation is snooze fest boring
chill farming plasteel is my bread and butter
I track some pattern fail on damnation like twice or 3-4th losing confidence to play
You already know director throw rng enemy and fucked up
I remember pre talent remake run just great
you gotta push yourself my dude
I wish, now Iām just burnout playing solo in pub.
Something hurt my spirit playing pub
Sometime bad team interaction 
once the entire team is dead, that's when the fun begins
Losing half plasteel not fun spent 26 minute
only then will I (maybe) stop collecting plasteel
Relying on team means your build isn't optimal
Have habit collect plasteel as Iām being forced myself
If you can't deal with every single situation in the game, means time to change it
Not everyone go collect plasteel you know
Yea just run off solo and get all the plasteel, we all do that
Just don't get caught

Sometime team maybe head of me
Yea play solo, patience
