with 2 elites + shrek, its about 250 DPS.

#

ragers and flackers get revolvered

vast yew
#

Yes, but the 2 elites require another weapon to kill first

kindred ivy
#

to feed the fier

devout robin
#

that's my question though, EP smite is okay but it's also anti-synergy because you're not generating that much peril with EP to get max stacks on shriek

#

so maybe warp charges would be worth the mileage there

kindred ivy
#

lets me keep smite for longer

ornate hamlet
#

Illisi shriek is the goatedest

kindred ivy
#

once it reaches mas i vent whilist keeping the smite on all the time

#

so i can keep the EP trough a shriek and keep smiting

devout robin
#

of course you'd also be using a stave but you're rocking the revolver

cobalt atlas
#

What's the point to this

#

Hordes Clearing with EP Smite?

bleak tulip
#

you guys gotta stop taking the bait

devout robin
#

clears trash better yes

kindred ivy
#

once the smiteis out u can press F at any moment to go back to lower peril

#

and keep smiting

harsh urchin
#

just a person who smites all game

#

trying to talk about how amazing he is

kindred ivy
#

look, i clear auric HISTG, it good XD

#

and maestrom

bleak tulip
#

deluding themselves into thinking spending like 5 seconds to kill a poxwalker is sick dps

kindred ivy
#

no its 5 seconds to kill 40 of them

bleak tulip
#

because youre hitting like 20 of them somtimes

kindred ivy
#

or evne less

ornate hamlet
#

But bro, it kills faster when I fire shriek

kindred ivy
#

i literally do that

shy prairie
#

collectively, close your brain

kindred ivy
#

but also smiet

harsh urchin
ornate hamlet
#

Smite gets such good damage after I fire shriek

harsh urchin
#

when team wipes

shy prairie
#

all I hear is heresy

kindred ivy
#

its 50% 50%

Why not just take Siphon Warp.... You stun longer and overall damage (You give up on activating ability)

harsh urchin
cobalt atlas
#

But it's whatever

bleak tulip
#

smikers really do be like that

kindred ivy
#

try out in game

vast yew
#

The downside to EP smite spam is that, even when played optimally, it clears elites slower than an optimally played stave build.
Smite + Creeping Flames + Warp Siphon to spam Soulblaze is slightly better but still shares similar struggles, hence why that build gets paired with Surge to kill elites while Smite/Flames handles the hordes

kindred ivy
#

go on

shy prairie
#

smites' cc when I right click then left click with the trauma staff:

kindred ivy
kindred ivy
#

u cant evne stun all of them

ornate hamlet
#

Imagine if

bleak tulip
#

EP smite spam is just generally bad because youre losing out on 15-24% damage before even counting the other DD buffs

kindred ivy
#

i consistently outdmg/and outkill elites

ornate hamlet
#

blazing trauma with fire shriek instead

kindred ivy
#

compared to other staves

bleak tulip
#

all to do marginally more damage with the CC abuility

ornate hamlet

Surge voidstrike going bowling on anything mildly lined up

vast yew
cobalt atlas
#

Im looking at it, but it's only great in clearing trash?

#

Why not just, take a staff that do that job

kindred ivy
#

the revolver clears anything else

bleak tulip
#

not even that Kekw

fading depot
#

Look in psyker chat
Talking about how smite is bad again
😔

bleak tulip
#

still takes too long

#

smite isnt inherently bad, people who use it for damage and overuse it on shit like hordes are

kindred ivy
#

then why didnt the vet uh kill the elites?

#

or specials

ornate hamlet
#

Assail already works and you can use it to snipe shit

kindred ivy
#

or uh ranged elites?

Brain burst does funnies as well

cobalt atlas

#

if I see you smiting a horde youre getting mentally checked as aa liability in my mind

devout robin
#

i understand that

#

that doesn't get rid of my point

kindred ivy
#

oh i meant to the guy asking about game lenth

#

yeah ofc i fucking shoot elites

devout robin
#

yeah

kindred ivy
#

i am not going to fukcing let them get close

#

lmao

devout robin
#

that's not smite brother

vast yew
#

I think Maus spams smite less than he claims

devout robin
#

you saying the rvolver is good is a different, separate argument

vast yew
#

and people eat it up

ornate hamlet
devout robin
#

yes

kindred ivy
#

ofc i do

devout robin
#

that's not smite

kindred ivy
#

i kill like 3 elites

#

then smite

devout robin
#

that's just you having okay gamesense to shoot elites

vast yew
#

That's a Gunker build with EP Smite for horde clear

kindred ivy
#

thats enough dmg to kill all other elites

vast yew
#

not a Smite spam build

devout robin
#

you just clear poxwalkers in 5 seconds with smite

tawny pebble
#

i do admit i love smite because unlimited power (the power is limited)

devout robin
#

that's fine and good

bleak tulip
#

almost like this shit is bait 4

but that's all you do with smite lmfao

besides the CC ofc which is fine

I am indeed bad with the game because less than 200 hours played and already hating on EP

@harsh urchin trying in psk, dclaw vs 3 ragers, still get hit

you should be able to handle 3 ragers

EP BB is my go-to for purgatus

harsh urchin
#

if you space your dodges

devout robin
#

it just helps kills shit quciker than if i took the effort to poke em with the mk 4 ds

bleak tulip
#

EP BB is like the only way to make that shit remotely bearable to use, and youre still unfortunately giving up damage to do it

# kindred ivy this one

Thank you, I have like 13 scoreboards saved of smite superiority but they're all at home. This conversation of 'smite bad' happens like once a week

vast yew
#

the only thing with EP is that if you have the 2 extra points to go WS... you should probably go WS instead
but if you want those 2 points elsewhere then EP BB is an excellent 2nd choice

cobalt atlas

I usually just run BB Warp Siphon because it's Purgatus staff

Dueling sword is 2 base, +3 would be 5 bars

kindred ivy

i run 4 stamina so it chargest fast

stamina curios in a world where kinetic deflection exists

kindred ivy
#

then i change into revovler

#

to sprint longer

vast yew
kindred ivy
#

it is.

echo island
kindred ivy
#

u recharge X stamina per second.
but when u switch weapons its the % that is transfered

vast yew
#

I am aware

kindred ivy
#

so u get a weapon with low stamina -> gets to 100% faster.
witch to revolver -> higher stamina -> run for longer

#

repeat

but if you're min-maxing your stamina regen while sprinting at the start of the map just slide-cancel like the rest of us

#

who the fuck is exodus

vast yew
#

anyways my general recommendation for leveling Psyker is play Assail + Revolver until 30, then get a decent Surge staff (very easy), switch to Surge + Assail, then transition to the other staves and playstyles

#

Purg is next easiest to roll and build, Trauma and Voidstrike will take awhile to get the right mix of blessings

dont listen

play smite

i just want to use gunker man

because thats how you add like 300 hours to your weapon acquisition

thats what im sayin

about 12 games' worth of plasteel i think

12

#

for nothing

bleak tulip
#

I see people use mods to buy from brunt and sell everything below 370 and then get fuckin giga pissed when the one weapon they get for 300k ordos gets bricked

if you just wanna play columnus, get the first best one that is remotely close and play it

echo island
#

Still no surge

#

The first trauma staff I got has surge on it

I get 1 of a weapon type that's decent with its stat rolls and blessing everything after I only really bother with 360 and up. Just for min-maxing overall

the idea is you use the Revolver to kill a few elites, proc PC, then smite + shriek to hold stuff in place.
It works but A: it's funky to play, and B: not a "DPS Smite" build

Im a simple man, I love being the big cheese on the team

This is salvagable, no? Mercy Killer to Uncanny, Unarmoured to Unyielding/Maniac?

vast yew
#

I like carrying but sometimes I just wanna relax

#

which means time for Surge + Assail

it still had purple gun

and a random ass knife

#

If I want to relax, I’m going on with BB , And purg staff

fading depot
cobalt atlas
#

Just burn everything

fading depot
#

Yeah agreed, my assail build runs with purg and DS

tardy stump
#

well, only build as i barely play psyker

fading depot
#

Assail for elites, DS for maulers/crushers, purg for everything else

cobalt atlas
#

Carefree because I don’t need to do anything but right click left click and wait for everything to burn

tardy stump
#

i was just testing the build as

#

psyker is the only class i havent done hard mode twins on

fading depot
#

It's the only one I've actually won hm twins on

#

I haven't really tried it again though I just wanted the cool insignia

tardy stump
#

helped 75 people get that insignia

#

havent done it on my psyker yet tho

fading depot
#

Nice

olive ember
#

Eh i had one hard mode twin win

#

and thats enough for me

#

#

Doing it with randos aint it

tardy stump
#

ye they are annoying

violet oak
#

I did it with pubs

#

I dont want to touch it again

olive ember
#

I got lucky and got a decent LFG group and we did it in like 4 tries

tardy stump
#

bashing my head to the wall

#

rolling that dice for

#

but I already got the insig so can't be assed to go into LFG again

#

good pug team rng

I had more luck with randos for the first attempts than with LFG for a while

olive ember
#

I think I got lucky with my LFG tbh

flint plover
#

How should I modify this force sword? I'm thinking of getting rid of the T4 Executor, but not sure what to replace it with besides Shred or Blazing Spirit

olive ember
#

the guys I joined were a 4 man but one of them wasn't available

#

and I happened to be there

bleak tulip
#

I did get it first try when LFGing with a guy who had a plan Kekw

olive ember
#

but I also had some LFG where two of the people hadn't even beaten orthus normal and wanted to do orthus hard

#

and that was

#

an experience

tardy stump
#

here is the thing, even with the voice channel communication most LFG teams i tried helping couldnt kill elites fast enough with ALL 3 of them

#

i was specced into pure bossing dps gun ogryn

#

that could phase the boss with 1 shield break cycle

#

all they had to do was keep elites off me and kill them which usually still ended up being not possible

tardy stump
#

after that we get the win with the other guy

#

both havent done damnation regular run yet

violet oak
#

When im farming the twins on reg damnation with LFG the first thing i ask is if people have beat them before

#

and then explain the bosses anyway

#

Youll be surprised how many people say "yes" and leave out the fact they got carried

I completed Orthus Offensive on hard mode as a psyker: AMA

Just rando queued into a match where they wanted to do orthus hard

the entire team crumpled in 30 seconds

#

yikes

violet oak
#

Thats pretty normal

olive ember
#

I forgot to swap builds too so I was running my marty hsword build lol

violet oak
#

Thats why i farm the twins with LFG, theres always a random or two in pubs that thinks they can do hard

#

when they cant handle malice

olive ember
#

eh I just can't be assed to stare at LFG and join VC and all that

i do talk a lkot about smiet cause i genuinelly think its great, but yeah, have fun!

primal tusk
#

in any coop or multiplayer game i have this fear of going higher difficulties and being the one dragging the team down Klee_Derp

for example, in LoL i have something 5k bot games under my belt Kekw

tbh vet doesnt change at all

how u play more less

#

independant of level

primal tusk
#

or using the bully club alt fire to just spam slap poxwalkers giggle ragdolling them nonstop

kindred ivy
#

its legit a point and lcick adventure

vast yew
opal gyro
#

There are different strategies for vet, but outside of that you basically pick between melee or ranged and that’s it. Other classes get more choices

kindred ivy
#

isnt illisi horde clear?

primal tusk
#

yeah

kindred ivy
#

i am considering running chainsword instead of DS4

#

for bleed into bosses

#

it seems a lot better faster/easier to hit the head (altho ig id be diminishing my kmobility)

vast yew
#

It won't keep up with DS4 + Uncanny

#

DS4 has the highest monster damage for Psyker outside Gunker shenanigans

kindred ivy
#

uncanny is annoying to stack on bosses

vast yew
#

if you have time to land a full chainsword special you have time for 3 DS4 heavies

#

was more the point

kindred ivy
#

bleed stacks

#

from chainsword

vast yew
#

Will help, but shouldn't outpace the DS4

#

think Chainsword came third after DS4 and Deimos last time someone was testing but could be wrong.

kindred ivy
#

with uncanny probably

#

but since i wont bother doing uncanny (as i usually clear ads when boses come and dmg the boss ocasionally).

vast yew
#

yeah and you always run Uncanny so not a big issue

kindred ivy
#

i think chainsword

#

the heavy headshot atacks after uncanny yeah they do a olt

vast yew
#

the only boss that's annoying to stack Uncanny on is the Chaos Spawn

kindred ivy
#

i get it.

vast yew
#

Plague Ogryn is very dance-able and BoN you just stab in the back if it's on someone else

kindred ivy
#

but i dont focus bosses as much, as i prefer clearing ads

vast yew
#

you shouldn't focus a boss if ads are alive

kindred ivy
#

oh yeah for sure i am not syaing its exatcly hard, its annoying to do both

#

i clear ads , and elites, i run my melee weapons very defensivelly

#

wiht block efficiency (56% block efficiency 💪 )

vast yew
#

the only time you DPS a monster is if nothing else is around

kindred ivy
#

and CDR

#

as ogryn u kinda and just DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA flam stacks it up

vast yew
#

if the monster is focusing you then you either dance it (Plague Ogryn) or just block-dodge away

kindred ivy
#

and fuck it

#

see which is why i think a chainsword might be better suited for me

vast yew
#

if there's other stuff you kill that first, then focus the boss once it's the only thing alive

kindred ivy
#

its never the only thing alive at auric damnation

vast yew
#

it is if you clear adds fast enough

kindred ivy
#

theres always something to be shot or tstunned

vast yew
#

build dependent though; Gunker builds can delete the boss faster than the adds so should do that instead

#

same for Zealots with stealthammer

kindred ivy
#

chainsword can help me chunk the boss a bit between ad killing moments

#

keeping up the stacks is not as easy.

#

well, it is

#

🤔 where i was going with this

#

oh yeah i wanna use a chainsword XD

vast yew
#

chainsword is a fine weapon

#

it's not as good as the top-tier Psyker stuff but it's perfectly usable

kindred ivy
#

if i had DS4 with dmg focus then yeah, but its defensive af

vast yew
#

has the unique benefit of Rev It Up to speedy gonzales around maps

kindred ivy
#

chainsword will prolly do it more

#

since i will be just bleeding it

vast yew
#

DS4 is defensive AF with its base stats, 8.5% dodge range gets out of range of a lot

kindred ivy
#

yeah i run it wiht bl0ock efficiency

#

it does well against mobs

#

aelites*

vast yew
#

80 mobility DS4 can perma-tank a Daemonhost with just KD

#

it barely even gets to attack

kindred ivy
#

Kinetic deflector?, sadly i cant put it in here

vast yew
#

Kinetic Deflection is a talent

kindred ivy
#

oh

vast yew
#

Deflector is the Blessing, and only available on Force Swords

kindred ivy
#

oh araight, the name do be too similar

vast yew
#

most Psyker builds pick up KD (as it's 1 extra point after the crit chance node down bottom-right), which when managed well is enough to tank near anything

#

without KD there's a few things but that's more of an Illisi problem

#

since it has mediocre dodge range

kindred ivy
#

interesting, havent felt the need of that node

vast yew
#

DS4 gets +8.5% and Deimos has +9.5% so they have no issues being defensive

kindred ivy
#

surgical 4 stacks up crit quite fast

vast yew
#

*Shred 4, and yours has Shred 3

kindred ivy
#

i meant critting in genral

#

if u look at my scoreboards

#

i almost never melee, revolver takes care

#

of 99% of the shit i kill

vast yew
#

I've seen the scoreboards and know how revolver works, we were talking melee options

#

wasn't expecting the non sequitur from "I don't feel I need KD" to "My Revolver kills elites"

kindred ivy
#

oh no

#

i menat like

#

the crit node

#

i dont feel the need of it

#

so its moer like 2 points

#

from my current tree

brisk lance
#

They ever release any cosmetics for the staffs or no?

kindred ivy
#

to get KD

vast yew
#

the crit node isn't as needed on a non-crit Psyker

vast yew
kindred ivy
#

what categorizes as critpsycher?

#

i do try to crit , when i aim, especally crushers and maulers.

vast yew
#

Columnus Gunker, Laspistol Gunker, any Stave except Rending/Flurry Trauma

#

All of those builds rely on crits to function

kindred ivy
#

ig its the "constant" crit builds

ionic needle
vast yew
#

He's talking Surgical stacks

ionic needle
#

Aah okay

kindred ivy
#

which is why i dont feel the need of that critchance node

vast yew
#

But yeah most Psyker builds get a lot from crit chance

ionic needle
#

But you don't only use your gun right?

wheat tulip
#

for voidstrike staff, is transfer peril on the secdary attack per weak point or per projectile? Like if I get the double on crit will I only get 2 or if it blows through 5 people and hits all their heads will I get -40% peril?

vast yew
#

He mostly uses gun and EP Smite

kindred ivy
#

so yeah not much use for crits

#

outside the surgical

#

i am not doing 1 point

ionic needle
#

Yeah then it makes sense I guess

kindred ivy
#

for the crit

vast yew
kindred ivy
#

the 5% toughness dmg erduciton is 👌

ionic needle
#

Is EP smite worth it? Does it deal okay horde damage?

vast yew
#

it deals okay horde damage

kindred ivy
vast yew
#

takes ~5 seconds to kill a Poxwalker

kindred ivy
#

i am not going on this argument

#

again

#

he started it this time

#

not me

wheat tulip
ionic needle
#

I'm not trying to discuss it, just asked haha

kindred ivy
#

kek its decent

vast yew
#

when stacked with Soulblaze stuff it clears alright

kindred ivy
#

i find it amaizng. thats it

opaque tendon
#

can assail crit?

vast yew
#

Assail can crit yes

#

only Blitz that can

ionic needle
#

So you're running smite, shriek and EP then? For the soulblaze

kindred ivy
#

kill elites makes fier

opaque tendon
#

neato, wondering my crits were so high. thx

ionic needle
#

Sounds like a cool build tbh

kindred ivy
#

TLDR: i for ???? have veyr good scorebioards despite running my very cursed build. its def a aquired taste

vast yew
kindred ivy
#

thats basically it

opaque tendon
ionic needle
#

What do you count as a good scoreboard? High elite/special kills? High total damage? High defense score?

kindred ivy
#

that

#

all of it

#

toguether

ionic needle
#

Cool

kindred ivy
#

imo is a good scoreboard.

ionic needle
#

Definitely giving it a shot then, I got a revolver lying around

vast yew
#

For what it's worth; EP Assail will probably give you better results

ionic needle
#

Yeah but assail is boring

wheat tulip
#

on my zealot I aim for 40% of all lesser kills and most ranged elites, thats it. just means Im running into the back killing gunners and removing hordes from the field

kindred ivy
#

recenlty i finally found someone who managed ot get close to my dmg with a purgatus. the team was VERY Good.

olive ember
#

500k not bad

opaque tendon
#

i got this from ye olde emperor. scared to touch it, tho (i run knife/assail/shriek)

kindred ivy
#

everyone did veyr well on this game.

olive ember
#

well depends on the mission if its like

opaque tendon
#

carapace helps for uh... crushers since i don't have a lot of answers for them

vast yew
#

getting 1 mil damage is always super fun

olive ember
#

melee only scab elites the damage should be in the millions

brisk lance
#

Could someone give me some insight into how Shoot Fast works? The penance. It feels really random.

wheat tulip
kindred ivy
kindred ivy
#

yes

#

necessary if u dont wanna spend 5 seconds killing hordes

ionic needle
#

I can never decide if I think wildfire is shit or not

kindred ivy
#

its good. but unnecessary on some builds

opaque tendon
#

shame that wildfire is locked behind burst/smite

vast yew
#

Wildfire is pretty butts unless you're using it with In Fire Reborn

#

the way it works Mechanically is just sad

ionic needle
#

Fire reborn?

ionic needle
#

Yeah four stacks is just nothing

vast yew
#

4 stacks would be fine if it WORKED

kindred ivy
#

imo, if u CAN apply fire all the time u dont need wildfire

brisk lance
vast yew
#

but it doesn't WORK so it's bumpkiss

vast yew
kindred ivy
#

aka imo purgatus doesnt need it much. since it WILL fucking flame everything anywya (but like the talent is righ tthere why would u not take it?_

ionic needle
#

This should work, wish me luck!

kindred ivy
#

if u wanna see, its cursed AF

#

extremelly so

#

buuuuut

#

it works for me

ionic needle
#

Show me your cursed build

brisk lance
kindred ivy
ionic needle
#

No KD on a DS 4? You're brave

kindred ivy
#

yeah

#

no need, i run 3 block efifciency + 20 block efficiency opn a DS4

ionic needle
#

But I guess you smite a lot

vast yew
#

So for those unaware: the way Wildfire works is as such:
It takes the stacks on the dead enemy, up to 4, and spreads them to nearby targets.
However, A: it splits the stacks between targets, and B: it cannot give the target more stacks than the dead enemy had.
So if you use, say, Perilous Combustion and kill a Rager, everything gets 3 stacks.
One of those enemies dies, it tries to spread those 3 stacks, but oops, everything has 3 stacks, nothing spread.
Or it spreads those 3 stacks... to 3 enemies, giving them one each

kindred ivy
#

ds4 is there basically to just block and let me dodge

ionic needle
#

I'm trying mine with Deimos I think

kindred ivy
#

despite the low stamina cost of DS4, the blocke fficiency goes a long way

ionic needle
#

Yeah but I'm not rerolling my curios for this haha

kindred ivy
#

understandable

#

do get CDR tho

#

its pretty good

primal tusk
#

weird question, thoughts on looks? i think maybe too many different colors Derp

plucky flax
#

Bruh your games are like no plasteels.

kindred ivy
#

personally i dont run void charges cause i barelly generate any peril.

vast yew
#

the longer they spend trying to grind the longer it takes them to get builds that compete with his

kindred ivy
#

i dont have to share peril with staves

kindred ivy
#

its not like the build is doing badly, the plasteel collection is not really related to how good a build performs

spice oar
vast yew
#

Collecting Plasteel is a team effort and takes less time the more players do it

#

Be a team player and collect the goddamn plasteel

plucky flax
#

I'm just saying you can inflate your own damage with any build while just running ahead and kill stuff while ignoring pickups.

kindred ivy
#

i am not running ahead

plucky flax
#

Xd

kindred ivy
#

i am a fucking psycher with smite

#

do u really think i can RUN?

#

while pressing SMITE + W?

vast yew
#

If you aren't running ahead then why aren't you checking containers? The rest of the team is doing it

#

What are you doing, twiddling your pecker?

primal tusk
kindred ivy
#

i am just very bad at finding plasteel

#

its not like i dont search it

#

but i can never find it

spice oar
fluid cove
#

hadron does not approve of me trying to branch out

kindred ivy
#

i usually run behind my teammates, so by the time they arein a container they picked up already anyway

vast yew
flint plover

I spent maybe 10k plasteel trying to get surge then the emprah gives this to me the next day

anyone running venting shriek/assail have suggestions for trinket perks? i just slapped on gunner dmg / toughness regen for now

thanks 🙂

#

no wait that's your Zealot

kindred ivy
#

thats a zelote

vast yew
#

nvm that's just Chaos being a loot goblin

kindred ivy
#

i really like CDR

#

it help me to keep venting and smiting

opaque tendon
#

i do feel like i use shriek off cd pretty much yeh

vast yew
#

I like CDR but feel like Psyker has a lot of options for it already between Warp Siphon and Psykinetic's Aura

primal tusk
#

i decided, heavily armored space wizard cowboy

vast yew
#

Plus it's only really useful on Shriek

kindred ivy
#

another reason why i dont need the Peril Reduction.

vast yew
#

Dome cooldown is a lot less important

kindred ivy
#

shrek is always availiable

vast yew
#

yes he is

plucky flax
#

Top plasteels any class tbh. Just built different.

vast yew
#

he makes himself available

opaque tendon
#

im running uh... assail so can't nab the psyk aura. would be nice tho 😩

plucky flax
#

This is the best though. whatthefuck_heresy

kindred ivy
#

are your team fucking bots

vast yew
#

other than the mandatory upgrade for extra pierce

#

it makes up for it by being the overall best blitz

plucky flax
#

Idk maybe they were but I'm always picking plasteels.

vast yew
#

but you do make some sacrifices

opaque tendon
#

did they ever fix the smite +10% damage talent?

kindred ivy
#

what mission?

plucky flax
#

People who have sub 200 plasteels pickup. Deadge

vast yew
opaque tendon
kindred ivy
#

people who have sub 10k staggers sadge

kindred ivy
#

combos into the vent flame DX

vast yew
#

nah it's a 10% upgrade on a tickle-gun

#

with EP it has some more use

kindred ivy
#

its on all sources

#

so your team kills shit faster too

vast yew
#

barely

kindred ivy
opaque tendon
#

implying your team hits smited enemies

vast yew
#

it doesn't change any breakpoints on Elites (usually)

kindred ivy
#

kek they dont smite KILLS EVERYTHING

#

ITS SOO FUCKING GOODF
I LOVE SMITE

#

YEAH SMIET

vast yew
#

so all it does is give you a bit of inflated damage numbers

kindred ivy
#

LKETS FUCKING GOOOO

hot zephyr
orchid nest
#

yeah both smite upgrades are very skippable

vast yew
#

the Smite jump upgrade can be worth with EP

#

but EP Smite is a bit of a nonstandard build to begin with

plucky flax
#

You can't pick up plasteels while smiting. staregryn

vast yew
#

(You actually can pick up plasteels while smiting)

plucky flax
#

Idk his scoreboard doesn't seem to indicate that.

#

Xd

vast yew
#

he hacked his scoreboard to show Smite damage as 3x higher

#

100% legit

#

Anyways if you're just using Smite for stunning Elites, skip the upgrades

#

if you're using EP smite consider the jump but still skip the 10%

I swear Psyker is the most volatile class. I'll go from pulling off crazy clutches with everyone dead, to just repeatedly going down the next match

you've got all the power in the world but 3 back-to-back bruiser hits and you eat dirt

3?

you got a fucking tank build

Actually tried out Maus "gunker" smite Build
It actually sorta works, but only cuz the revolver is literally OP in its current state
