Captain's log, December 21.
Happy with my setup overall. My sword lops heads off with a disconcerting ease. My trauma staff makes short work of big brutes, or at least makes them trip over long enough for my associates to go ham in total impunity. I adore using the bubble, its refresh rate is so quick it's just plain broken.
I can't use BB because my staff already does that job. I can't use Smite because my sword already does that job. That leaves only Assail, which I find slow and weird and clunky to use. I get the feeling I'm not using it properly. Useful against Muties and unarmored Ragers maybe but... so far, I've got a hard time finding a good slot for that ability.
kindred ivy
oh yeah its def not useless
untold widget
heres a 29/30 purg build which has the option of Wildfire
but for purg, Empathic Evasion is miles better to take
due to the rapid crit rate of the staff RMB
obtuse moth
It will spread flames by itself through a horde even while your attention is els...
relatively useless with purg tbh, it has use with smite creeping flames, blazing trauma or for in fire reborn stacks
Only triggers after death animation. Most notably a bug. Needs at least 2 stacks on the target to spread the fire. Hard cap of 4. You cannot transfer more than 4 stacks total per dying target. Can only target enemies with 4 or less stacks. Enemies with 4 will just refresh in duration and consume a stack. Stacks are always spread evenly among suitable targets if possible. 5m radius from blazed target. Will be spread by corpses if they have been lit after death when the Soulblaze effect ends on them.

btw how fucked are these staves:, i play with them uhh seldom , and htye fine, but like aparently they are ultra cursed

on left, change sprint to flak and blaze to surge, and on right change barrage to flurry

the purg is the best one among the bunch but they are all useable at least. the trauma one is my least favorite, you can play it as a hybrid one with true aim still

staves have so much suppression on them already, that barrage doesn't have enough effect to sacrifice flurry

They aren't cursed just not what you would call optimal

i recall terrifiying barrage working pretty decently back when
It's pretty niche. Before I made myself a decent purgatus I had a partially bricked one with TB on it, and in tight spaces it would really do a great job stopping ranged.

Given the one you just rolled for shockwave, you're only looking at ones with 78%+ charge and blast now to make a fire

Does anyone know the breakpoints? does uncanny 12-24% rnk 1-4 matter which rank for killing in fewer hits?
hot zephyr
Yeah for Fire Trauma damage isn't important
You don't want it as a dump stat, but the other four are way more important on fire trauma, and you absolutely want 78%+ for blast and charge
strong gulch
I disagree about damage not mattering, but for sure with the soulblaze damage, it matters less.

Once you get used to the rotation of Gun -> EP Assail -> Gun or Melee (to conserve ammo) -> repeat it's a very fun build. Juggling effectively "two" primary weapons makes it a bit busy tho

so I've started leveling a second psyker for melk-purposes...I never used assail before, its kinda fun, though I suspect me standing in the back throwing mindbullets isnt exactly the most useful thing I could be doing

78%+ is just so you get the absolute max, which really makes a difference on fire trauma since you need to spread your soulblaze round

i dont need to kill all elites with revolver due to the snowball effect of killing elites -> flame stacks

that's true
guess we share the same perspective on it
just bring trauma on melee maelstrom and call it a day
kindred ivy
ig if am feeling something different i'll bring it
without crits i can kill bombs, snipers, trappers, both shotgunners, and the flak gunner.
with 2 shots basically every elite except muties, ogryn and mauler
and most of them if i dont onetap without crit i can still smite shirek
actually i dnot neve need to shriek if i headshot them and they are still alive, a EP smite will finish off any flamer / rager i headshotted without critting
and if i just even bodyshot any of them EP smite shriek will also clear all of them
fucking TF overrated AS FUCK
i have to try making one with blaze another day to see
and my revolve ronly has 67% pen (79% dmg, 80% critbonus tho) 10% elite dmg , 25% flak.

Blazing Trauma supposedly does "way more damage" than Shockwave, but it's also really hard to build because you need god-rolls for base stats then a specific two blessings or it doesn't even work properly.
kindred ivy
even a mauler that i just bodyshot without crit will get killed by shirek EP smite

after testing in the psycharnium.
what trash does it kill? it barelly does dmg if u dont hit dead center
it will just yeet shit around without doing any dmg
at most it will apply brittle

Ok well I don't have anything constructive to offer then, I'm sorry you are disappointed with the results
kindred ivy
i'll test with blaze

final conclusion, VoidStrike and TraumaForce is overrated as FUCK.
Based on numbers i just ran.
my revolver headshots without critting : flack guners, and both shotgunners
with a crit: dreg gunner, flak rager, all elites, except mutie.
all shooters and other runners cna be EP smited from full without a problem
All those aboe here can be finished with EP smite if i just body shit them or not crit WITIHOUT FLAME SHREK. (but of u will still use shrek cause why wouldnt you)
Ogryns, maulers and muties that have been been not killed by the revolver die to EP smite + shriek, (or i just tap twice, at which poit EP smite klls them)
i dont need Shrek to kill shit, i use it cause why not. also all the staves are dogshit. i will never use them.

There are so many ways to kill things, optimizing for burst one-shot some targets is just one thing you can do. Gun psyker is generally the strongest psyker right now on raw output, but the difference is small.

There are a lot of ways to rack up these numbers.. Getting 900K in a game is nice, but it depends who's on your team. Surge/Flames on a weaker pub I'll routinely pull 700/800K.

Ditch Warp Expenditure, or take it instead of Soulstealer, but I would not use both. For VS, I would stick with Soulstealer.

I mean, most unyielding bosses you are fighting for more than 15s, so it's definitely possible to be strategic with it even as-is.

bleak tulip
health and toughness gneerally
there isnt really much build specific stuff
take a wound if you need it
one of each is probably the best all rounder
hp, tg, wound
when youre comfortable with running psyker on damnation you can drop the wound for either more health or toughness, up to your taste
bleak tulip
I always take health and toughness there too, but damage resist, cooldown reduction and ally revive speed are other ones I run
toughness regen speed is also kinda bad because toughness regen gets paused when enemies are too close, which happens all the time on higher difficulties
calm lotus
quick check is gunner res still wanted?
bleak tulip
you can if you find yourself getting shot by gunners a lot yeah sure
calm lotus
i'll probably pick at least a little up
bleak tulip
generally this part of the guide I agree with, I wouldnt take sniper resist personally
and stam regen is kind of pointless because psyker has the fastest stam regen delay
calm lotus
alright ty
bleak tulip
0.5s delay
generally curio perks are kind of personal preference
I see it the way that running 3*5% toughness and health is almost another free curio for each
you can dodge gunners and snipers pretty reliably, stamina isnt that big of a deal with the stam regen delay and with kinetic deflection mostly eliminating stamina as a limiting factor for picking people up and blocking
you only need 1% stamina to block push for example
ripe yacht
I always take health and toughness there too, but damage resist, cooldown reduct...
What damage resist do you like? Do you have a standard curio set, or several you rotate between?
bleak tulip
no preference, dont really actively run any of them
on some characters I have one gunner resist because my 21% health rolled it
on psyker I run CDR right now I think

for your blaze trauma set up, do you take kinetic deflection? I know it's a good defensive ability but if I were to take it I'd have to give up 6 warp charges and I was wondering if that trade was a good one

its generally very good
azure bridge
yeah, thats why i'm torn over it
I want 6 warp charges bad lol i like the extra damage
but at the same time
survivability
bleak tulip
imo 6 charges isnt as good but thats very debatable

Between the 2 I'd pick kd over it. My build has both though so I'm good.

No clearly we should only use ep smite and delete all staves.
