that's the only build i use wildfire on

@dense crow i dont do furry comissions like that, approach me on twitter if u want a furry feet art

left click seems kinda weak

im aware it's a bit buggy
i dont think it's entirely useless

on a purgatus it would be useless

i pair purga with this deimos
I've been using deimos for non-purg staffs. I use the MK IV Dueling sword with purg.
Purg does great horde/area damage anyways. MK IV Dueling melts single target/tanky stuff
snow dust
aye, that's true
snow dust
aye

i have this to show the effect of wildfire on purgatus

Any mods you guys know of that changes damage color? Crit and weakspot are too similar to me >_<

Also any mods that can change the color of the flames? Blinding fire is annoying

maybe you can use the custom flame mod

wildfire seems kinda weak. Still have to spray fire directly onto the targets.

vent shriek bump the stack of 15-16 stacks into 21 22, which would be more apparent against those heavier units

that's what i thought
severe folio
yeah
but in any case, wildfire spreading tool are redundant compare to purgatus
so if you use purgatus its best to pick something else other than wildfire
if you are using blaze trauma then you will get more value out of wildfire than something like purgatus
severe folio
wildfire benefit from AB when you stop applying sb to everything after you vent them
but in what kind of scenario wouldnt you continue to use purgatus after you vent
except for when all your enemies are dead
so wildfire kind of spread flame much slower than purgatus during that time
snow dust
custom flame
thanks, exactly what I was looking for
feral verge
to build uncanny strike stacks with deimos
severe folio
even that, purgatus does better
in a single second you gonna apply over 4-5 stacks of sb to all the enemies withint 15m in front of you
and the next second you apply 7-8
wildfire slowly spreading out 4 from enemies that died to the next one but those next one you already spray purgatus on

Uses a flawed scoreboard, sees best number, assumes build is good
Your defense score is padded by excessive stagger from smite, either you are carrying 2 deadweights, or they were afk for half or more of the mission

battle med can hurt Purg, as you need to get to 85 peril to get max stacks from shriek.

There are different ways to build Purg, but it bumps into other abilities. I like Battle Med and Wildfire with purg, but then I won't go Shriek, because getting to make stacks will not be fun, and Purg can manage peril with battle med already.
So you're best picking on direction and leaning into it.
vast yew
yeah either Dome + BM or Shriek + no BM
kindred ivy
does it actually make much of a difference tho?
vast yew
Yeah all the staves have a few different builds

Okay so theres multiple ways i can go with purg, good to know
The super utility build is Purg + Wall (I prefer over dome) + BB. You do a bit of everything.

It's just so low productivity on Purg in general, and if you have Purg how much are you really meleeing, unless you lean into it.

vast yew
No, no I get it
it doesn't trigger on deaths via Soulblaze damage
but where else you gonna put the point
unless you swap to Assail or something
shadow wigeon
but where else you gonna put the point
im still thinking heh
I would take the move speed + under KD over perilous
Purg gets you rooted so often its nice catch up
vast yew
assuming on the dome build specifically, because the shriek build is dumping BM and needs to get to BB somehow
yeah that makes some sense
shadow wigeon
assuming on the dome build specifically, because the shriek build is dumping BM ...
You're good though? Battle med A+
vast yew
Battle Med can make it annoying to hit 85 peril on a Purg
orchid nest
not to discount anything else but you would take PC because it can max stack over purgs normal stacks
shadow wigeon
Battle Med can make it *annoying* to hit 85 peril on a Purg
Yeah I just don't care, hitting max stacks all the time anyway. Peril is just for warp ride if im on purg.
shadow wigeon
which if you have Shriek can be a bit frustrating
I don't use BB EP, you dont for BR with it? just too minor?

it does seem to always trigger from purg rmb though despite that normally being true
as pygex also noted
eager mantle
Blazing spirit is ass because most things you're hitting are dying to the crit anyways and isn't spreading as much as you'd want with wildfire
orchid nest
as long as they are in the stream
vast yew
idk I usually take it becuase it's a soulblaze talent for my soulblaze staff that isnt' named Wildfire
and also because PC is patently nuts on every other build
shadow wigeon
Purg procs PC on RMB
I just find Purg does not kill enough elites, too many sniped by team mates so make PC worth while.
vast yew
tbf it kills anything that isn't a Crusher pretty well enough
even Maulers melt under 21 stacks (post-shriek) w/ +25% flak
shadow wigeon
Yeah it does fine, it's just a matter of timing.
orchid nest
that's kind of true but that is a purg problem in general right now. it's still really good but people are doing so much damage that it loses value
shadow wigeon
that's kind of true but that is a purg problem in general right now. it's still ...
Yeah, burst damage makes Purg feel underwhelming, that's why I skipped PC
I'm sad I nuked by Purg/Scrier's build, that actually did kill a lot of elites... but it was such a hassle.
vast yew
I find Purg works wonderfully when things are going right but has less ability to pull things back if they start to go wrong
you're still a Psyker and still have all the Psyker nonsense (plus Purg left-click staggers everything sub-Crusher)
but there's just a bit less nonsense there

Purg also used to do more damage relative to enemy max HP...it needs a buff.
spice veldt
purg is fine

not sure how'd they buff it without also buffing soulblaze in general
which then wouldn't actually help it
ionic frost
let left click stagger crushers again =)
spice veldt
it's an infinite cleave weapon and sure it doesn't scale well when your teammates have a braincell and a decent build
half iron
i’m more of a trauma or gunker type of cutie myself nowadays but purg was my one-trick during the old days
spice veldt
but purg is fine for what it is
strong gulch
Ok new build. No SG and talking surge without WS. That way I'll be too scared to use my staff.
spice veldt
i really don't see why we're comparing purg to something like the plasmagun as if the plasmagun is not overtuned
ionic frost
You used to be able to purg staff everything in investigation mission finale and be pretty safe...now the enemies get a chance to melee you once or twice before they die.

are there any minimum stats i should hit when going for a zarona revolver? like does reload speed matter past a certain point?

are there any minimum stats i should hit when going for a zarona revolver? like ...
I mean reload speed is a good stat
It's just less important than Damage/Penetration/Critical Bonus
Ideally you want it to be as high as possible, with Mobility as the dump stat
but if you find an 80/80/80 with 23 reload speed you still take it

Ok new build is better but also trash. Creeping flames carry.

Mad satisfying
Also I do recommend dumb run and gun gaming with the flame staff, running in firing m1 like a madman is surprisingly effective
Saved like 2 people total with that method
vast yew
Run n Gun Purg is weird but works
Helps that Charging it isn't as impactful
as it only affects the duration, not the damage, of the subsequent attack
queen fog
Yea helps with the choice of “do I wanna be a flame sprinkler or a flame hose”
Cuz a lot of situations only call for one rather than the other

or Unyielding/Carapace
depending on how the breakpoints are

Wanting to like something but not actually liking it is such a mood.
With EP, smite become more of the focus. Instead, try it as a utility thing without ep. Pair smite with revolver / surge staff / voidstrike and let one of those be your main thing instead of smite. Smite can be the "oh shit" button. Also pair with creeping flames.
But if you don't like it, then you don't like it.

How do I make Smite not feel so horrible? I’ve got a pretty cookie cutter EP set...
smite's never going to feel great because its explicitly reliant on your team
kindred ivy
the main drive with EP smite is the fact that it can/needs finish off any elite u dont onetap
bleak tulip
you dont use smite for damage
kindred ivy
for example
gusty furnace
holding enemies in one place does literally nothing if the team doesn't kill them.
bleak tulip
thats basically it
gusty furnace
Its best used with competent pre-made teammates
gusty furnace
preferably while in VC so you can bitch at them
bleak tulip
or just use vent
kindred ivy
my revolver, can onetap MOST elites, but in the offchance the revoler doesnt kill them, EP smite will finish them off
alongside the horde
bleak tulip
so you at least do something while smiting
kindred ivy
since EP smite doesnt need vent to kill hordes
lethal lagoon
Why do the special mutants still have 4k health, but take increased damage, why not just give them less health?
kindred ivy
Why do the special mutants still have 4k health, but take increased damage, why ...
so u have to use melee
and not shoot
lethal lagoon
special as in the modifer mutants
kindred ivy
(yeha vent helps, but its not necessary)
lethal lagoon
They take increased gun damage though?
kindred ivy
they dont iirc
they only take increased melee dmg
like dogs
also number big funny
bleak tulip
probably because its easier to just give em a modifier than changing their health value
lethal lagoon
they dont iirc
"special" as in mael modifer mutants.
lethal lagoon
Atm they just pad the scoreboards lmao
kindred ivy
they are dead or stunned most of the time anyway
lethal lagoon
I feel lik a modifer is more work than giving them less health 🤷♂️
bleak tulip
assume its just a general modifier to everything?
instead of just adding a range mod too
kindred ivy
i imagine its a feel good moment
a mutant having less hp would feel wrong
they are chonky boys
they need chonky hp bars
bleak tulip
also "it just pads scoreboards" is probably not something FS cares about considering there is no vanilla scoreboard 
kindred ivy
lethal lagoon
Yeah, but it might affect data collection if they aren't labeled properly
They do still use that data
There is a vanilla scoreboard, we just can't see it, from my understanding
kindred ivy
muties take 3x melee dmg anyway
let them have cool HP bars
it makes sence
they a big and bulky
lethal lagoon
You are talking about normal mutants again?
bleak tulip
I guess thats semantics, the numbers are being tracked but there probably isnt really a scoreboard?
lethal lagoon
Special mutants take increased ranged damage.
kindred ivy
even if they take extra dmg
yeah, they are muties, they need to have the big hp number

I thought that's where the graphics from the scoreboard came from
kindred ivy
else they are just a weird poxwalker
bleak tulip
wouldnt know
kindred ivy
they prolly have a procedural way to make windows and UI elements
bleak tulip
either way, considering they arent using the numbers or the graphics I assume they still dont give a shit lol
I'd be surprised if they ever show true lvl either even though its being tracked
lethal lagoon
(they are using the numbers), but yeah I guess they just did the usual fatshark and hamfisted in some code to make it work.
It is bizzare for them to have the same HP and just take more damage than normal mutants 🤷♂️
bleak tulip
kindred ivy
me when mutants have the same hp as mutant
i dont get it
dmg modifier is prolly already a thing
brazen pendant
recommendations for this staff?
kindred ivy
remover ranged weakspot
bleak tulip
thats the worst fucking advice
special to crit or flak, flurry to surge if you got it or keep blessings as they are for now
there isnt a specialist in the game you need 8% more damage for its actually trash
at least weak spot damage does something for everything you shoot at
potent echo
||nexus to surge|| cursed advice do not open
bleak tulip
brazen pendant
I have surge blessing. is it that much better than flurry?
bleak tulip
yes
brazen pendant
thanks for the advice everyone!
bleak tulip
its such a massive damage increase that it kind of just outclasses everything else
like you dont get nexus on void for the crits, you get it because it gives you surge procs
if you catch my drift
brazen pendant
is blast radius a complete dump stat?
bleak tulip
ehh
it does apparently impact the size of the projectile too but its fine to dump imo
worst case you cant headshot two gunners at once if they stand slightly too far apart
pretty niche

I'll give this staff a whirl. see how it goes

Smite rocks
and having read EP
it's what I would prefer to run usually
Assail is good and all but smite...
kindred ivy
the thing is, the damage will seem a tad low still, however it WILL kill hords and all shooters/runners wihtout any problem
if u have the EP version
you will ofc run shriek flame to help it
cold yacht
Only when you look upon the foolish masses stuck in place do you understand the true power of smite
kindred ivy
EP smite dps is 125 , which is higher than the shirek flame.
what i like baout it is it will finish off any elite my revolver shot and didnt kill
(for maulers, ogryns and muties i need the flame vent also).
small valve

When you bring ep smite to the easiest difficulty by accident
kindred ivy
the flames dont spread as nicelly as smite, as the stacks dilute when u kill a enemy and wildfire procs
however, the flames + smite cascades into loads of other elites dying
something that "just flame vent" cannot achieve/achieve as easelly
its a build that really doesnt seem to work on the psycarnium, and the numbers seem all weird. but ive been getting win after win with it at auric damnations
and auric maestorms.
even if u dont do dmg, the EP smite will actually chip away quite a bit of HP from everything.
unlike smite which wont kill shit
