psyker-class

[feral verge]

how long have you been playing heresy

it may be time to take the trainign wheels off anyway

[small valve]

eh

I keep going down in heresy

[feral verge]

rip

[small valve]

here i go, histg damnation

https://tenor.com/view/scout-tf2-team-fortress2-stblackst-unusual-troubles-gif-18862930

[plucky flax]

Don't worry I am still in sedition.

[hearty dagger]

Thankfully i have done Warp Battery way back when when Psyker penances were somehow even more cancerous.

[limber silo]

what's the best infantry autogun for psyker

and preferred blessings if you please

[hearty dagger]

Afaik Columnus is very well liked but in my personal experience Agripinaa works as well.

Not sure about blessings but definitely avoid the Suppression one

[summer prairie]

For Columnus you want dumdum, the other blessing barely matters

[wet belfry]

Colomnus defintely.

[small valve]

Suppression is like

the least useful feature in the game

[hearty dagger]

It's not that it's useless, it's just that there's way better options.

Besides, the perk itself is just stupid.

Why should i care about suppressing enemies when i'm already in close range?

That just seems very counter intuitive.

[small valve]

I am going to die before I finish warp battery 😦

[hearty dagger]

That's what i thought while doing Cliffhanger in the preorder beta.

Have you tried going with the Soulblaze variant of the perk and running purgatus?

[small valve]

No but I will

[hearty dagger]

Pair that with something like say Assail and you should be able to snipe elites relatively quickly while having a more reliable source of passive warp charge.

[untold verge]

what does rending do

[tacit stump]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/effects

ignores armor

[strong gulch]

You and me both. Tab graveyard.

[hearty dagger]

I just tend to exterminatus (Close tabs to the right) my opera gx whenever i'm done looking at stuff

[strong gulch]

I'm never done looking.

The tabs on my phone doesn't even have a number. It's a 😄 face.

[feral verge]

you go down many holes, i bet

[strong gulch]

👀

[spice veldt]

as many holes as you will get bad jokes during your work

[feral verge]

you will suffer

you are getting coal

[lunar hollow]

be nice

[feral verge]

how does one be nice to... him.

[lunar hollow]

you pretend he's someone worth more empathy

simple

[feral verge]

Vacuum capsule

That's all I'll say on the matter

[vestal fulcrum]

I concur

Cryonic rod

[limber silo]

Rending is armor pen. Up until 100% rending is 1:1 ratio. After 100% you get 1% bonus damage per 4% rending

[small valve]

need more better purgatus staff...

[limber silo]

It is a buff on you, not a debuff on enemies btw

[plucky flax]

Columbus is just the best for any class that can use it. It's like autopistol of old but you can ads.

[cobalt bone]

lol

[limber silo]

thx

[kindred ivy]

amongus suffers from ammo problems tho

[tired estuary]

not so much if you use it efficiently and swap for non ammo ranged options sometimes

and like, don't magdump single trash enemies going at the zealot lol

[limber silo]

amongus?

are you talking about the columnus?

[eager plank]

There's no flavor WITHOUT SPOOORT!!

[kindred ivy]

yes

[vestal fulcrum]

This could have been so good, had the second blessing not been Smackdown

[delicate stratus]

Your honor

scriers gaze

[vestal fulcrum]

YEEES, side grade obtained

I had an Unstable Power 3/Uncanny 4 Deimos before

The one above can also one-shot a Mutant at 1 Warp Charge

[wraith talon]

jesus havent played in like 3 days and all my skill’s suddenly gone 😭

[strong gulch]

Right? Just a few days or week and that's it.

[visual osprey]

deimos doesn't feel good to use to me

[visual osprey]

and this is possible for any properly-built force sword, it just depends on the time it actually takes for all that damage to happen

[vestal fulcrum]

Each to their own. I used to dislike Deimos greatly, but then I understood the ways of the stab

[vestal fulcrum]

One stab. This isn't time based, it's literally just H2 to the forehead.

[strong gulch]

Ways of the stab and also now being able to dodge our of the special.

[visual osprey]

illisi's startup heavy on 1wc with unstable power proc'd also oneshots muties

stats are similar, almost identical to your deimos

[terse saffron]

which one for warp charges true aim shield

[devout robin]

first

[visual osprey]

first to what

oh

[devout robin]

...the first one?

[visual osprey]

Images are broken on my discord sometimes and I have to tab in and out to see them properly

[devout robin]

you good

feel that brother

[visual osprey]

I'm not even sure what warp resistance does at all and I've mained psyker since beta

[devout robin]

less peril generation

[visual osprey]

that's bad for my build

[devout robin]

yeah it's a double-edged sword

[visual osprey]

my build is reliant entirely on managing peril and keeping it around 70 the whole game

[obsidian nimbus]

@plucky flax Wanna play some games? No twins i promise xD

i wanna level up a zealot

[plucky flax]

Sure can play a couple rounds.

[obsidian nimbus]

yeaa

[cobalt bone]

is the heavy laspistol good against carapace

would like something beside the revolver

aight it isnt xD

[lyric burrow]

Yeah not really

Anti cara ds4/deimos or void

[cobalt bone]

so ig i stick to revolver for now

[terse flare]

Need More. I have a new goal now 🙂

[rich jolt]

Wish psyker had some ammo perks in there tree

[ornate hamlet]

Wish they had an attack speed talent

[rich jolt]

I want to run gunker but its hard to play with less ammo efficient guns

[rich jolt]

What did?

[ornate hamlet]

Psyker

[half iron]

i wish psyker had punch

a punch. with their hands

[ornate hamlet]

With vet and zealot, melee basically has +10% attack speed anywhere and even more if you take other certain talents

Psyker gets stuck with no bonus whatsoever

[rich jolt]

I wish psyker could just open a portal to the warp and blow up the planet

[half iron]

that sounds like it would be very rude

[ornate hamlet]

That would drastically affect the fishing season

[half iron]

the plasteel market would be in shambles

[rich jolt]

How would this affect the trout population?

[cobalt bone]

psyker spacecowboy outfit complete

[rich jolt]

Stylish

If only we could recolor cosmetics and make the cape red

[cobalt bone]

yea

[rich jolt]

Good fit nonetheless

[hasty breach]

are peeps using deimos sword on bosses or what. monstrosities

[rustic oak]

Ok for the warp battery penance it says “in a single session” what does that mean?

Is that like a single game?

[bleak tulip]

yes

[rustic oak]

Why is the wording always so weird for penances

[bleak tulip]

if only it was limited to penances

[rustic oak]

Yea.

[gilded viper]

Warp battery used to be a lot easier. Idk what they did to charges, but they absolutely do not maintain as easily

[ornate hamlet]

If you say "penances" fast enough, it sounds like "penises"

https://tenor.com/view/cat-lurking-gif-22179921

[gilded viper]

Slannesh is an imperial confirmed

[kindred ivy]

just kill shit

[near radish]

Slasnesh is infecting this chat as we speak.

[kindred ivy]

before the update i couldnt get my penance cause every map i played had a elevator

wehn i played psyekr

i was a vet main most of the pre update

[gilded viper]

Well yah no shit. It’s just I used to run my purge build and essentially had 6 charges the whole map. They have done something to it. I just don’t know what

[kindred ivy]

well, only really went psyker fully, once they nerfed some shit i liked on vet and zeloterosn

[modern bronze]

https://tenor.com/view/mr-bean-checking-time-waiting-gif-11570520

[kindred ivy]

also just smiet

[half iron]

vet needs more nerfs. only because the class deserves it out of spite

[vocal cliff]

Every vet but me

I deserve to stay busted

[modern bronze]

FRANCE

[vocal cliff]

I will blow up your sink

[modern bronze]

do not

[patent hatch]

Ewww

[quartz barn]

wait a second

T4 blazing spirit doesnt even exist on trauma

[bleak tulip]

yeah

buff trauma pls

[patent hatch]

Trauma is very strong 😂

[bleak tulip]

doesnt even get blaze 4 so bad smh

[marble pebble]

[vocal cliff]

Damn I Need to update these old ass psyker builds

[idle summit]

What's everyone's favorite dueling sword I'm shopping around rn

[shy prairie]

[ornate hamlet]

live smite reaction

[shy prairie]

ds4

it gets the uncanny, second blessing is up to preference

want a weapon to dumpster single targets, throw precog or the other one on it

or put rampage and have more than 0.1 hordeclear on your melee

[obtuse moth]

when picking between two choices, crit chance is almost always better than crit damage

for multiple reasons

[vocal cliff]

There, got myself a build for each..ability, now to run each to see my favorite

[dense crow]

The smite nerds are gonna cry if you choose to use your brain

[marble pebble]

just did a damnation with 4 smite psykers

[dense crow]

4? You shame psykers

[vocal cliff]

I'm trying the BB build first

[dense crow]

Assail critlot is my current favorite build

Practically always immune to ranged and big dodges

[marble pebble]

if we could we would get more

[ornate hamlet]

canny strike

[frozen elm]

Someone have done the "warp battery" penance ? I'm kinda "stuck" it's much harder than i thought

[half iron]

i am john psyker i have done warp battery

[frozen elm]

how

with a group of "friends" or in public and

[half iron]

public

[primal plume]

Ive fallen in love with a new build
Surge Staff
Assail
Creeping Flames
EP

[frozen elm]

gg btw and how gunner psyker ? BB ? Palpatine ?

[half iron]

i think i either used surge or voidstrike during my warp battery run

[frozen elm]

mmm okay i wil try with it, thanks for the info

[sly dawn]

and you could have had me there, i would keep that battery up

[feral verge]

it's easier in damnation

[half iron]

flushed emoji

[feral verge]

especially so in hishock

it's easier becasue elite/specials spawns are constant

ironically, in lower difficulties, the penance becomes more difficult

because there are less elites/specials

[sly dawn]

i did half of the time needed on the 4 stick difficulty(i will NOT rememeber the names of the difficulties)

[half iron]

you will when you wanna do achievements/penances

[frozen elm]

i tried on heresy hishock (still leveling too lol) and i'm stuck at 195. i will try with a better staff and better lvl 🤡

[half iron]

i did mine during an auric assassination. didn’t realize until that penance jumpscared me

[sly dawn]

i'll just tell you what i want to do and you'll put on the difficulty
boom, get brain bursted Pskyer

[half iron]

you’ll brain burst 1 of the 57 poxwalkers instead

loser

[hasty breach]

hadron has bricked like 8 super 370+ illisis in a row for me.

[half iron]

hadron has bricked many traumas for me. plasteel-stealing meanie.

[sly dawn]

i wake up
28 plasteel

[noble basin]

after so long...

Im gonna have PTSD over fighting twins for 3 days straight

[plucky flax]

[rich rose]

3?? Thats all??

[west stream]

Is twins fight time limited?

Or was that only for ambush event?

[noble basin]

ID SAY THATS ENOUGH YES

I wanna touch fucking grass

or snow, since chrismas

[noble basin]

I also have the same question, since its a "Special" mission according to the menu

turns out the karnak twins are the chrismas themed event all along

[idle summit]

do psyker blitzes count as warp attacks

[eager mantle]

As far as we know the "limited event" was just them ambushing.

Could see the twins fight as a "special assignment" since it is like the first actual kind of sorta "story" relevant mission

[plucky flax]

Merry Christmas siblings.

[bleak tulip]

you too fam

[vocal cliff]

I'm gonna try that now

The BB was fun

[fierce spoke]

I am now shiny

my old set (left) and my new set (right)

[half iron]

white

[fierce spoke]

it's more a vague gold

silvery brass? idk what to call it

[vocal cliff]

Ah, thanks brunt

[half iron]

je suis le wanna steal that weapon

[graceful compass]

got one more mod on this thing, what should i go to

[feral verge]

warp flurry into surge

[vocal cliff]

I'd put surge

[sage horizon]

I fought them roughly 30 times now, yet haven't been able to complete hardmode due to some people dieing within 30 seconds :l

[eager mantle]

I haven't tried yet

[plucky flax]

If you're on eu I can help.

[sage horizon]

I am, but went offline. Have to get some sleep.

[rich jolt]

Does anyone feel like right keystone is way to akward to use

Gotta rush to kill an enemy before your teamate does

[thorn cedar]

hardly

[rich jolt]

Sometimes an enemy across the map gets marked and you have to watch all your stacks wither

[rich jolt]

Really?

[thorn cedar]

just gotta be faster

https://tenor.com/view/revolver-ocelot-gaming-mgs-guns-gif-17353618

[rich jolt]

Yeah that usually helps with most things doesnt it

[thorn cedar]

but also unless the system itself janks you out it's not a huge deal if a teammate scores the kill first unless you were right on the end of the clock

it'll mark a new target pretty much instantly

and if the target is far away don't feel bad about dipping a situation real quick to scoop them up

DD buff is very strong and is worth maintaining

(unless we're talking like, literal rooms away, or a floor above you, or whatever, which i know it also loves to do, but w/e)

[rich jolt]

I mean yeah but psyker is squishy. Leaving team just to get stacks could be a very quick way to get killed

Idk

Maybe its a skissue

[thorn cedar]

just dont break your head over the idea of having 100% uptime on full stacks

that'd be fantastic but it's not realistic

[rich jolt]

I feel like id like it more if it wasnt all stacks immediately and instead ran out faster one at a time

Imma give it another shot what should i run

[thorn cedar]

i basically just use it for my gunker builds and voidstrike

and/or assail, i suppose

it really is purpose built for assail

[rich jolt]

Was using assail shield semi headhunter and chainsword that good?

[thorn cedar]

dome or wall

[rich jolt]

Wall

[thorn cedar]

not that either is bad but dome would sorta engender passivity

and you cant really afford that always with DD

and yeah thats all good really

just get used to fishing out the blue targets

i fight towards them like theyre the tastiest skittles

[rich jolt]

Okay ill work on tweaking weapons theyre both pretty bad rolls

Thanks

[lyric burrow]

Yeah dd is fine

If you play frontline it wont be a huge issue

[lethal lagoon]

Just throw it as far ahead as possible and pubs will rush to it

[vocal cliff]

Never thought some guy named booger would be the best guy I've played with in terms of chillness/communication

Im not even gonna try the smite build because the Crit assail build wins out of the 3 builds I've tried

[wise ruin]

Can I see the crit build?

[vocal cliff]

I basically copied it off someone else in this server but it's really good

[vocal cliff]

I like running it with a voidstrike and dueling sword as the guy said for an optimal use

Mk IV

[dense crow]

I recommend getting the top 2 nodes that rely on getting crits but you’ll have to be smarter with less toughness

[vocal cliff]

Ok

I think I already have them I just got off again so I'll check again

[bleak tulip]

also anticipation isnt super high value, not sure if its still bugged but at least the dodge range is pretty poor

[vocal cliff]

Yeah, there we go

I don't wanna go back on so I'll change that tomorrow

[kindred ivy]

😔 spanish

[bleak tulip]

[feral verge]

Last I heard, anticipation is still bugged

[broken quail]

concentration stim on venting shriek is pretty fun combo, so much fire

[compact bluff]

anticipation isnt bugged, it just kinda lies to you on what 'dodge duration' it affects. it increases your melee dodge linger duration from 0.2s to 0.3s, not your actual dodge duration

[gusty furnace]

happy sanguinalia spark'eads 🎄

[near radish]

Happy Sanguinala from the Warp, Siblings!

[rich jolt]

Why are they eating ork

That stuff nasty

[halcyon creek]

It’s been ritually cleansed by being scourged and roasted for hours within the latest-unearthed STC, the Off-In

[rich jolt]

No i mean

Ork canonically tastes like asscheeks

No amount of seasoning oils or sauce will make it palatable

Maybe space marines dont have tastebuds

[ionic sorrel]

I personally would not eat ork

[rich jolt]

If you didn't roast the thing for hours it probably end up growing a new ork inside of you

[halcyon creek]

Maybe it’s not for eating? Maybe it’s just a way to preserve the head as a trophy

[rich jolt]

Its got lemons next to it and its on a platter

[halcyon creek]

Preservation ritual

[rich jolt]

Space marines do have strange rituals

[half iron]

low and slow cooking

[vestal cloak]

Merry Christmas from grandfather nurgle to all

[vocal iron]

what should i reroll to improve? unstable to lvl 4 and take off unarmored for another perk or replace both perks to make them higher tier or do that with blessings?

[ornate hamlet]

I would change deflector to uncanny strike

[rich jolt]

Yeah if your going to go deflector might as well get block ef

Single shooter lines enough to pretty much instantly break guard

Or max out peril

[primal plume]

I have a question. When enemies that are inside your bubble shoot, does that still damage the bubble?

[snow dust]

probably?

IIRC enemies shooting inside bubble won't actually damage you (the bubble still tanks it)

And Auric damnation confirmed the bubble has a set amount of HP that can break if it gets hit too much

[primal plume]

I know that

But im just wondering if the shots inside the bubble count towards damage since it seems like the bubble just deletes the shot

What if Psyker had a keystone that let you have 2 blitz at the cost of a ranged weapon but it empowered the chosen blitz you took as a replacement for your weapon?

[snow dust]

that would be ridiculously broken

just need to take assail and knife, dueling sword, or force sword

and you have a perma-passive buffed assail spam + auto brain burst

[ornate hamlet]

Would be a bit wacky

Assail is still pretty spammable with the piercing and cooldown talents

[snow dust]

Which perks are best for pergatus, +crit chance and.....

flak? .-.

[wanton sandal]

+crit and +flak

tho maniac is alright if you want to replace barrage

i'd probably take +crit instead of elites, then replace barrage with flurry

[snow dust]

I think I'm ok with barrage, would prefer it to be T4 barrage but it's good enough

[vocal cliff]

I can definitely salvage this

[ornate hamlet]

Frappe troublante

[vocal cliff]

Idk what I'm putting on blessing wise I've never used these tjings

[ornate hamlet]

Uncanny strike and a choice blessing

I pick shred because psyker has a toughness on crit talent

Uncanny strike being uh

Troubling creppe

[small valve]

average ogryn meal

[zenith vigil]

I just reached level 30 and currently playing smite + shield to help the team. can someone gib me link to a good build pls

[robust relic]

siblings, what's the best end of mission damage meter mod

[silk hawk]

Voidstaff-ds4

[silk hawk]

Scoreboard, ovenproof extension if u like Alot of numbers

[zenith vigil]

what's ds4?

deimos?

[silk hawk]

Dueling sword

[zenith vigil]

I see, thanks

what blessing should I have on voidstrike?

[lethal lagoon]

What's your ranged weapon?

[zenith vigil]

right above 😄

[lethal lagoon]

Ah, void, I see, yeah that builds good, easy switch to shield

[silk hawk]

I use surge+ flurry

Some prefer surge + nexus

Try both, and pick what u like

[lethal lagoon]

Left sprint = flak, Run N Gun to nexus or flurry.

The standard is nexus though.

Can also do right, sustained fire to surge, sprint to flak or carpace or 5% crit.

[zenith vigil]

thanks for the guide

[lament karma]

Does + Block Efficiency reduce the amount of peril generated when you block kinetic deflection talent?

[lethal lagoon]

It used to, I'm assuming it still does

1 +3 stamina curio should cover you in terms of KD blocking though

[zenith vigil]

12k plasteel gone in a flash 😂

[lethal lagoon]

Try out warp nexus after if flurry isn't doing it for ya

[primal plume]

I really wish left click smite was a strong single target dot

just feels weird still exists

[silk hawk]

No, but + stamina does

[silk hawk]

U just described surge staff

[silk hawk]

That's not the best void thou, u rly want that charge speed at max

Even with a flurry

[lethal lagoon]

I just tested it, you are wrong.

block effciency reduces peril gen on Kinetic deflection.

[silk hawk]

Ok.

[worthy relic]

assaiil good?

im new to the game

[rich jolt]

Busted strong

[silk hawk]

Is it better than raw stamina thou?

[lethal lagoon]

If you level with assail it'll be fun, but you might be unprepared for higher difficulties.

[lethal lagoon]

Who knows? That's why I also recommended a stamina curio.

But from my testing it went from 8% peril to 6% with 2 10% block effiency

The hit I tested I mean.

If it stacks independently to stamina, it could be pretty strong.

[primal plume]

Surge is burst

[silk hawk]

Count its dmg as dot ticks..

[primal plume]

its incredibly miniscule

surge is burst

[lethal lagoon]

Being able to just smite an entire game is already a bad gameplay design, don't need to buff that further.

Left click should be unique.

I wouldn't mind an insta push stun for a lot of peril, like the ending part of the right click.

[silk hawk]

Id like to see surge hit 3 more targets, then i am fine with smite deletion from the game xD

[restive slate]

I'd like surge to be an insta lightning bolt, no stun more damage

Surge staff, that is

Smite lmb to insta stun but no chain

[hidden cosmos]

Well, to be fair, canonically they are also effectively fungi so 🤷

[primal plume]

Same

Maybe a stagger though

[idle bay]

Maybe in next mark for Nomanus staff

We have yet to see alternative Marks for each of our staffs...

[cold yacht]

Siblings I need your help

Smite build or assail build for my next mission?

[distant roost]

Assail gunker

[cold yacht]

Aight

[idle bay]

Staff bonk build! Staff special only!

[cold yacht]

Not happening on damnation

[ornate hamlet]

Not with that attitude

[lethal lagoon]

New challenge, only staff bonk in a damnation pub until they notice.

[idle bay]

It's unfiar that Bayonet on lasgun delas INSANE damnation worthy damage (there is a video of bayonet only team) - and staff bonk does not...

[willow sigil]

I'm struggling quite a bit with Twins on Damnation regular or hard, what're your suggestions for builds? The combinations I've tried either aren't working or there's just a skill issue so I'm open to suggestions

[plucky flax]

I like gun psyker or blaze trauma there.

Fast swapped gun like revolver or laspistol.

[ornate hamlet]

Kinetic deflection, stacking some toughness and DR, and dueling sword 4 have treated me well

[willow sigil]

Must be a skill issue then for me since that's what I was originally going with. You prefer smite or assail?

[plucky flax]

Kd is a must indeed.

I've never used smite there as I prefer to be the one doing the damage.

If you have other players who can do boss damage smite is okay I guess.

[willow sigil]

I just figured smite since it can keep elite swarms off team mates but maybe I should stop relying on the others to do dps lol

[plucky flax]

I have some gameplay footage of you want to observe and see how I went about the fight.

[willow sigil]

If it's already on a public platform to view yes please otherwise don't worry about it

[ornate hamlet]

I use assail to compensate for the lower horde clear of DS4, as well as to clown on shooter and gunner crowds

Smite is something I barely use, admittedly in part because people spamming it left a bad taste in my mouth and I ended up disliking the blitz itself

[plucky flax]

Yeah it's on YouTube. Anyway focus elites first cos if you do randoms pug they won't keep elites off you to do boss dps.

[willow sigil]

Okay cool, I just didn't want to bother you with having to upload it or anything like that. If you can send me the link I'd really appreciate that then

[willow sigil]

That's what I'm currently trying and it's getting me somewhere so maybe the weapons is what'll do it for me not sure though

I admittedly just might not have enough experience to complete damnation unfortunately

[plucky flax]

https://youtu.be/LIblNd7RN9w
https://youtu.be/LvaenOLrY9A

Blaze trauma and Las pistol. I've cleared it much faster since with laspistol, that one was random solo queue.

You need uncanny weapon for boss dps. Ds4 or knife work best.

If you can play on eu server idm helping. Helped a lot of guys on this server.

[willow sigil]

I'm unfortunately in North America 🥲 idk how well I could work with eu connections, but I appreciate the offer anyway

[ornate hamlet]

I regularly play on stuff almost in the 200s tbh

As long as you aren't running massive packet loss, the game actually handles it surprisingly well

Stuff like blocking the poxwalker trying to backstab you seems to be entirely clientside

[proven stirrup]

Idunno why you guys have such a hate-on for smite

[plucky flax]

I don't hate it use it as you like. I just don't use it as much as assail.

It's only on 1 of my build.

[plucky flax]

I helped 2 na people. If you're from us east ping is not too bad to eu.

[ornate hamlet]

I don't inherently hate smite, it's more that

Imagine if most dogs you came across pissed on your leg

It's not like the dogs are doing it to fuck with you or anything

But eventually your brain starts disliking dogs

And then you see people having fun with dogs because they can be fun

But you look at one and you see the dogs that pissed on your leg

[plucky flax]

[ornate hamlet]

This is smite for me thanks to an obscene amount of pub psykers just spamming it literally everywhere they see and then folding to like 2 poxwalkers while quelling because their mind didn't learn how to count up to 2

AKA they don't know what 1 and 2 do on their keyboard

[unkempt hare]

I don't wanna have to use smite ever again, I had to spam it to get cliffhanger, and now, gotta get warp battery fml

[willow sigil]

West 😭

[restive slate]

One psyker ability I don't use is Shield

Not that I don't like it, just haven't had a build I synergise with it

[unkempt hare]

Its the only ability that's going to actually help me get warp battery

I hate this

I am so fucking done

I want the mk 3e hood for psyker

Took me so long to get 3d now time for step 2 I am so tired of this

[restive slate]

Take a break if you need to

If a game feels more chore than fun, better to rest a bit before trying again

[idle bay]

There is an easy method for Warp batter. It just need 1 player to help you.

[unkempt hare]

Really? Oh I would love that

I need to take a break tho

My sanity is quickly dwindling

Took me about three months of solo grinding to get it

[idle bay]

Private team. Kill of bots (optional). Go into any data interrogation event that can go indefinitely until you finish all mini-games. It provides you with technically infinite eliets and specials. Stay there until you get the Penance

[unkempt hare]

I have friends that play perhaps I could convince them to play w/ me and help out? They are prob going to be playing lethal company if I know them

Imma got to sleep it's late

[idle bay]

If you get 4% chance to get warp charge from any kill from a team - ask team to only kill everything but elites/special - it's a chance for extra charge maintenance for you and you mosly focus on elites.

[unkempt hare]

Do or don't take 6 charges?

[idle bay]

If i recall correctly penace only counts to 4 charges.. but with6 charges.. well it'sa extra damage 🙂

[unkempt hare]

I need to get a good setup for it

Thanks for the advice

[idle bay]

Not nessesary - you can do it casually on 3rd difficulty on relax mode 🙂

2 players with 2 dead bots

[unkempt hare]

Been playing on heresy for the money

[cobalt atlas]

What is warp battery penance again

[plucky flax]

Stay at max charge for x seconds.

[cobalt atlas]

Oh

[cold geode]

3 minutes end to end I think

[idle bay]

It was trivial penance before patch 13

auto-complete really...

Trade-off for making Cliffhanger - easy.

It was 22 enemies before not 7 🙂

I remember how tricky it was to get Goin out with a Bang!

[idle bay]

Fixed 🙂

[unkempt hare]

Was it always the same or did it change all I had to do was play a lil fast and loose (and stupid) with peril and I got it

Using my surge staff to build a lot of peril and then sending it over and running into a squad of gunners

Building peril by fiddling my surge secondary fire

[half iron]

i did mine on accident

[unkempt hare]

I did mine on purpose cuz I thought it was funny and not many people have it

Last I checked it wasnt many

[half iron]

i think it’s still labelled as a rare ach on steam

[unkempt hare]

So is cliffhanger

Makes me feel pretty good

But that's step 2 of 3

[half iron]

also done it on accident with the same “method”

i used to be one of those smite users when the class update came out

[unkempt hare]

Palpatine or spammy?

You missed me

[half iron]

use it on a poxwalker horde to farm a “wow jeez john wizard you are killing so much” voice line

that kind

[unkempt hare]

That's funny

[half iron]

used it on the high ledge where enemies spawn in that one assassination map, got cliffhanger

[unkempt hare]

I used station oblivium to get it

Disruption/sabotage

[dim current]

Any advice for achieving the warp battery penetrance?

It's driving me insane

[lethal lagoon]

Revolver/Surge/Voidstrike on Magistratti Hi-Int/Auric.

The intro + elevator event is long enough to hit the penance and should be dense enough you can get it.

Hab Dreyko is also an option, don't do any of the last event, pubs rarely do em.

You could be there for 10+ minutes easily.

[visual osprey]

zealots when psyker casts bubble shield

[glossy ember]

merry xmas boiz

[dim current]

Thanks, I’ll give it a try

[lethal lagoon]

You can also try purg with the 10% warpfire = warp charge thingy.

[dim current]

I tried it one match but I found it harder to use compared to the random +4

Maybe I don’t have it built for it but I wasn’t killing as often as I wanted for it to be reliable

[lethal lagoon]

Makes sense. Keep in mind the harder the map the easier the penace is to do though.

If your team get's slowed down and swarmed by enemies it's actually a positive lmao

[dim current]

I know, been finding the auric rather still hard since there’s still long gaps

its so annoying

[lethal lagoon]

Need a juicy mael maybe.

It's funny how the penance used to be so easy that you could get it on accident

[dim current]

Was it have it for 300s on the map in general?

[lethal lagoon]

You used to get a warp charge for any target killed by Brain burst

So just BB someone every 25 seconds

And using your ability didn't burn warp charges.

[lethal lagoon]

Merry drunk christmas 👋

[glossy ember]

[mint pivot]

which one you reckon would be better?

oh wait, i could just move the surge to my current staff?

is surge even good for vs? 😄

[lethal lagoon]

Warp nexus to warp nexus 4, unyielding to flak or crit.

You can move it to your new staff if you prefer flurry

Surge Warp Nexus is the meta though

[mint pivot]

how does surge even work?

yeets 1 bullet that turns in to 2 mid flight incase it decides to be blessed by RNG?

[devout robin]

you launch 2 very tightly packed one after the other if a crit procs

both will crit

[lethal lagoon]

Crits are decided when a shot/swing/etc is fired.

That's why assail turns purple, some weapons also have color effects even if they hit nothing.

It's pre-determined, it has nothing to do with hitting enemies.

[weary vessel]

I just wanna know why I can't use surge on the surge staff

[glossy ember]

it'd be op

[weary vessel]

but its literally the surge staff

also surge is already very op

[glossy ember]

don't worry

they'll give us a "void" and "trauma" blessing exclusive to the surge staff soon

[compact cargo]

OP

Nah surge needs a buff

It's falling behind in the power creep of OTHER classes

[mint pivot]

you think surge is in a bad spot? I want to use a fucking purgatus...

voidstrike is just so boring

[plucky flax]

Damn game so easy when not playing psyker all Ws. Pls buff

(I'm the 3rd name)

[vestal fulcrum]

How does one make the history list wins/loses?

[primal tusk]

Psyker do be squish

[plucky flax]

Latest version of scoreboard mod.

Update it if you haven't.

[vestal fulcrum]

I have the latest version

[dim current]

I’m not getting this warp battery am I ;-;

[plucky flax]

Are you sure?

[primal tusk]

chaos spawn not boss worthy imagine if it spawned as regularily as regular poxwalkers

[vestal fulcrum]

Hm, or do I?

[plucky flax]

It says there that version add support for scoreboard history.

[compact thorn]

Ummmm I'm really not sure what to do here

[primal tusk]

idk, two the same pics?

[compact thorn]

My bad

[primal tusk]

statwise the second one is but i dont know much about the blessings and whats meta

[vestal fulcrum]

Yeah, fair enough, my "latest version" was downloaded 5 days before the actual latest version was released

[primal tusk]

and deflector seems neat tbh, helps against gunners and the like

[vestal fulcrum]

A miscalculation

[plucky flax]

[compact thorn]

It's quite good with that one talent that uses peril instead of stamina

[paper loom]

Siblings is this worth a buy?

[main vortex]

what does assail dmg come from? I feel like the more I level up the more dmg it does so it is relative to your weapon or level?

why I'm asking is cuz I feel like I'm doing more dmg with assail but what I'm investing into for the talent tree is not dmg

[distant roost]

Penetration is a bit low but yea

Well eh

Idk abt it on psyker but Uncanny/Executor is always good

Or you could run Smackdown and just shit out crits

Do Uncanny/Smackdown could work quite nicely

[subtle tulip]

are any of the force swords good at wave clearing?

[dim current]

Yes

All of them are pretty good but v I believe is designed for it

[subtle tulip]

thanks

[chrome patrol]

illisi is the best at horde controle

deimos for heavy hitting

[distant roost]

Yea Illisi has the best horde clear, Deimos is best single target

Obscurus idk I never touched it

[chrome patrol]

i think no one does

[paper loom]

What perk should I go for mate?

[distant roost]

Could just

Increase flak to 25%

but yea Uncanny/Smackdown could work or Uncanny/Executor

It’s personal preference

But i think psyker can get uhhhh

50%+ crit chance

So

With just talents you crit roughly half the time

Add Smackdown and that’s i think over 70%

[spice veldt]

damage is the same

LMB has 200 base damage and I forgot what the RMB has

obscurus is obscurus

if you lightspam on illisi, then you'll know how the obscurus will perform

[glossy ember]

smackdown is kinda garbo

i'd rather executor uncanny

[plucky flax]

Uncanny flesh tearer for the bleed

[distant roost]

it’s just not but ok

[glossy ember]

too conditional for me. Needs to be a special attack, and to stagger with it, and it only lasts 2s

[distant roost]

2s is awhile tbh

It’s all just options

Better for someone to experiment and find what they like n such

[glossy ember]

2s wouldn't be a problem if any stagger triggered it

[distant roost]

I mean the special is literally

Super quick

And easy to incorporate

[lethal lagoon]

2s on top of adding a useless micro to your moveset

It's really not worth it.

[distant roost]

It has its uses

[lethal lagoon]

But is it ever the best move in any given situation?

No.

Unless you are in an elevator and the vet just shot a poxburster in your face. Give em a few punches.

[distant roost]

Never said it is the best or not

It’s just an option

As having 70% crit chance is sorta fuckin nutty

[lethal lagoon]

Everything "has its uses" is my point.

So you can't use that as an argument.

Actually, crit stacks weird and the more you have it the less it's worth.

So it's not 70% and even if it was, it's not mathmatically worth it.

[paper loom]

So reroll smackdown

[distant roost]

Tbh yea

[paper loom]

And get flak

[distant roost]

Uncanny is the primary blessing

And upgrade flak

[paper loom]

Cool il see how it goes ty siblings

[distant roost]

Just aim for weak points n such

[paper loom]

I never know where to aim tbh lol

I'm just busy looking cool with a revolver and fancy hat in the back

[glossy ember]

executor is more consistant overall with mkvi knife since heavies hit heads

so with one cleave you can get 3+ stacks

instantly

and push attack is bound to hit head

so elites you'll always have a buff

could always take scrier if you want 20% crit rate that's what i do

[summer prairie]

smackdown doesn't last for 2s

[distant roost]

I don’t disagree that executor is good

I just like to give people options for builds

[distant roost]

Tbh I usually just run Assail, Scriers, Disrupt on a gun build so

[lethal lagoon]

I agree completly, but smackdown is just so categorically bad lmao.

People are a bit too pushy in here usually, with the best build, but this is kind of the opposite case.

[distant roost]

Rlly not

[summer prairie]

Smackdown buff lasts for 4.5s

[distant roost]

Like gave the mans two options lmao 💀

This is truly some next level nitpicking

[glossy ember]

that alone already makes it a whole lot better

[summer prairie]

The only issue is that it doesn't stagger everything but 4.5s duration +20% crit isn't bad

[granite wolf]

If I'm building a illisi v force sword and I want to run Blazing Spirit on it, is it better to go with shred for increased crit chance or with Bloodthirsty for crit (and thus soulblaze) on demand after a powered swipe?

[glossy ember]

i still wouldn't pick it over executor though

[glossy ember]

in a game where you can brick weapons and not be able to go back i don't think it's complete nitpicking

[distant roost]

It honestly is lmao

First thing I said was Uncanny/executor

2nd was a “this is a funny build you could do too”

Like lmao?

[granite wolf]

the light attack folowing the special jab is always a heavy downward strike

so punch followed by light is a fast stab right on the head

with mercy killer on a bleeding target its a super easy way to get high damage on big things

since the punch can trigger bleed first with lacerate if you punch in the chest and then look up a little for the stab

[primal tusk]

brick weapons 🧱

[summer prairie]

can't do quick special+light spam with mkvi, they probably again used an older lua file as the base for it

[granite wolf]

did they change it recently? I've been able to

[summer prairie]

it works with mkIII

you can do a single special+light combo but if you try to chain it won't work well

[granite wolf]

gimmie a sec going to sefoni now

gonna see

nah it works

[summer prairie]

I'll demonstrate in a sec the difference

With MKVI it doesn't buffer the actions properly, so you can't press the special attack button immediately after the light or it won't work. You'll have to intentionally delay and that also makes the chain slower

the only upside is that with MKIII if you do it too fast your light followup nor the special actually connect

I did the MKVI chaining poorly here but anyway the MKIII is clearly much faster https://streamable.com/ycd8am

[granite wolf]

fair

[glossy ember]

i have the solution to this issue

blitz cancel

[glossy ember]

that implies you'd not run smackdown though right

since you'd want lacerate and mercy killer

[wise fable]

Hey guys i know many might already know this. But if you are hunting for that Surge blessing for Voidstrike staff and are sick of keep upgrading your base staffs twice to not get it ever, here's how to get it. Firstly you need a base staff with a high stat rating, like 360+ then upgrade them staffs to tier 4 instead of just tier 2. I got 2 Surge blessings this way so quickly after like 100 staffs upgraded to level 2 driving me insane. just wanted to share..

My current staff

[plucky flax]

Not bad.

[primal tusk]

guess the class is a teammate

i fear for this lobby i am loading into

[glossy ember]

psyker

[primal tusk]

speedrunning zealot

we just entered the sewer, he's already at the ascender part

[plucky flax]

That's me.

[primal tusk]

welp. this lobby's 5 shades of doomed

rushing zealot

[vagrant furnace]

nah, knife and stub are fine, as they say

full team of knives and revolver

[primal tusk]

and the other zealot triggered a barrel, yeeted self off ledge, and forced me into the path of a nearby suicidebomber and yeeted me off the map

[vagrant furnace]

lets gooo

[pastel rapids]

what can i do for this gun

[primal tusk]

not gonna play like a team in this lobby

got my vengeance

knocked the zealot in question off the map right after the final bossfight

[glossy ember]

been a while since i opened darktide..

[hasty breach]

hey the Anticipation talent -- what is dodge duration? does it actually increase dodge travel distance by 50% or does it give you extra evade frames or what

[summer prairie]

Characters have a dodge linger stat which is a short duration of extra immunity frames against melee after the actual dodge ends. For Psyker it is 0.2s (for zealot/vet 0.25s, ogryn 0s). Anticipation increases that from 0.2s to 0.3s. You likely can't tell the difference

[hasty breach]

ok thank you

[plush rampart]

[languid tusk]

not bad

now if only you could get good blessing after consacrating

[plush rampart]

Just need more plasteel T.T

Just spent 2k trying to get some decent blessings on an autogun.

That's a problem for future me tho, now I do a sleep.

[primal tusk]

gonna try a poxburster build, overload on wounds and just suicide bomb into hordes

[plucky flax]

Привет, вижу ты очень крутой игрок) подскажи пожалуйста, какие улучшения и благословения нужны на новую лопатку огрина:жёлтую и синеватую.

@idle bay

Halp.

[idle bay]

Translation: Hello, i see that you are a badass player ) Please tell me what blessing and perks are best for new ogryn's shovel/

[vestal fulcrum]

Here's what Yandex thinks about it

Blade = in this context is a "shovel"

[plucky flax]

Wot's yandex?

Is it uber pro google translate?

[idle bay]

It's russian Google

[plucky flax]

Ogrin indeed.

[vestal fulcrum]

Yandex is far from being a better Google translate, but it gives me some context

[idle bay]

It's better for searching torrents

[vestal fulcrum]

I'm not Russian, but I can read some Russian and figure out what is what

[plucky flax]

Anyone I don't like any of the new shovels so suck for him.

I'd just give that comment a heart and call it a day.

[idle bay]

Wait.. i have a link for you to advise him 🙂

[plucky flax]

[idle bay]

damit.. there were video how to make that shovel 1-hit anything save for mini-bosses

[primal tusk]

so Poxburster build worked up to the fourth enemy

[idle bay]

stupid youtube history...

[hasty breach]

what counts as a successful dodge?

i mean, im always sidestepping lasfire -- does that count?

[golden tartan]

Yed

[idle bay]

This one will do for now
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0j0zzLTxLY

[hasty breach]

was that to me?

was that a yes? xD

[golden tartan]

Yes

[plucky flax]

I shall forward it to him.

[hasty breach]

does it just count as a successful dodge when you hear the audio cue and then dodge and dont get hit?

[golden tartan]

Ye

[idle bay]

Basically it need Thrust T4

[plucky flax]

I hate thrust.

[summer prairie]

22 minute archivum sycorax monster maelstorm with randoms, pretty quick

or 20:56 according to scoreboard, weird time difference

[idle bay]

For some reason it's my favorite mission

[languid tusk]

its a very nice mission to speedrun

no roadblocks, many corners you can sprint behind to avoid gunners

[idle bay]

But you can run yourself into lockout during the ventilation sequence 🙂

[languid tusk]

wellll im glad you asked because i have a completely unrelated shameful self promotion speedrun video inside of the archivum to show you. you cant tell from this video but the answer is yes: you can sprint so fast that you can lock yourself inside of the ventialtion room

https://youtu.be/Tbffbp4AVLo

[idle bay]

Also Speedrunning is wasteful. All those mats you can waste on crafting and then drink yourself half-dead from depression from getting only bricks from Hadron...

Question: Twins body armor - flack or Carapace?

[languid tusk]

flakapace

the head is carapace

[summer prairie]

body is unarmored

[languid tusk]

its ridiculous that terminating the game and starting over (with no launcher mod) is faster than loading back into the mourning star

what kind of wonky programming is that

[flint plover]

that's why i dont even load into the mourning star if I can avoid it. i do all my npc work from the character select menu with a mod

[plucky flax]

Body is flak no? Like exposed arms and stuff maybe unarmoured.

[plucky flax]

What's their shield?

Some people said unyielding some said flak.

[summer prairie]

isn't it just void_shield, never heard of the shield having another property

[pastel rapids]

Hello Psyker knife enthusiasts, what should I do with this thing?

please don't tell me to just pitch it 😦

[languid tusk]

u could try to keep maniacs and ruthless backstabs

then maybe add the thing that gives you finesse damage when you dodge

cant remember name of that blessing

[languid tusk]

their shield is not the same shield as the scab captain

their shield is flak

[summer prairie]

isn't it this "toughness_armor_type = armor_types.void_shield"

[languid tusk]

no

[summer prairie]

What is it

[languid tusk]

it's flak

[summer prairie]

What's the source for it being flak

[languid tusk]

a post on reddit with the disassembled game data

[summer prairie]

I'm looking at the game data too though

[orchid nest]

I believe this infographic is what they are referring to

not sure if accurate

[summer prairie]

not sure I believe what I see over a reddit post

[languid tusk]

dude just shoot the shield

it takes like a bazillion damage

no way thats void

[idle bay]

Also some true duo build for twins hardmode used specificly Flack damage bonus...

[summer prairie]

hardmode has additional modifiers

compared to regular captain

[languid tusk]

the twins are different than captain its common knowldege, you are not beind underground and original by denying the common knowledge you are just denying yourself the tools built for you by other players

[summer prairie]

it being flak would make it take more damage if anything

What

[languid tusk]

yeah i get you you want to be special so you say all the other players are wrong

hjad a guy like you in my class

very annoying

[summer prairie]

are you serious

Someone asked me what their armor type is and I answered the question based on what I see looking at the code

[idle bay]

I wonder if it's possible to spawn twins with Creature Spawner for testing?

[summer prairie]

and you read some reddit post

Fine I'll run the mission solo and see for sure

[orchid nest]

in the comments for the creature spawner mod from what I saw they added the line themselves but had the problem where the twin auto leaves with the gas bomb as soon as it spawns

[next zephyr]

hamwarmer 40k killed the meme channel

[idle bay]

But what if to spwan them in into mission in Solo Mode?

[orchid nest]

Yeah that might work

[idle bay]

Long time ago

[summer prairie]

you can't spawn it there either, I think spawning doesn't work unless you are on an actual server. You can run the solo mod though

[languid tusk]

oh you mean like i have alreayd done several times ? like several other players have done several times ?

[flint plover]

you're callin that dude annoying but I assure you, you're the one being incredibly obnoxious here

[languid tusk]

fine, I rest my case, feel free to find out for yourself

[orchid nest]

agree. you have the wrong read on him, he is always here trying to be helpful

[plucky flax]

[idle bay]

syllogism is know for being very precise and thorough

[plucky flax]

He's know for being top 0.9%.

Better than me.

[glossy ember]

aren't you top 0.0001%

[primal tusk]

this a decent voidstrike?

[summer prairie]

it's true that their torso is flak and the center mass is unarmored. I don't see where the armor class for the void shield would be defined since the definitions look the same as the regular captain

[orchid nest]

I can't find where void shield is defined either, I've also been looking in aussiemons repo. I see some people saying all void shields are flak now after the twins update but yeah I can't find it yet

[summer prairie]

That's definitely not true as that is easy to test in the grinder

the regular captain shield doesn't take any extra damage with flak/unyielding/whatever

[orchid nest]

Hmmmm

So the basis of why this information would be useful is some people saying that chain weapons obliterate the shields on their specials now compared to pre patch as far as I can see

I think the damage is capped though, right? maybe the little ticks hitting harder. I have no idea though, just spitballing

[summer prairie]

It kind of looks like that reddit image is from gameslantern but it has since been updated (?) to show

[orchid nest]

It could be, yeah. this was the reddit post

https://www.reddit.com/r/DarkTide/comments/18j4khu/karnak_twins_stats_armor_types_etc/

[plucky flax]

Top 99% thesse days.

[orchid nest]

void shield does seem to have separate damage values from flak in the damage scripts

[glossy escarp]

Hey fellas, what would you recommend I swap out the groaner dmg for on my purgatus?

[summer prairie]

which script is that

[orchid nest]

scripts/settings/damage/damage_profiles

[summer prairie]

which lua in there

oh now I see what you mean

I read that "for flak"

[orchid nest]

yeah I'm not sure what weapons some of these are specifically referencing

I dunno. I would be interested in seeing the code as to why it's being said it is flak. as far as I can currently tell it seems like there is maybe some weird interaction or bug going on that is being attributed to it being flak because of the weapons involved

[summer prairie]

chainsword_sawing has the same flak and void shield damage profile (same modifier that is)

[orchid nest]

void shield seems pretty distinctly defined everywhere I can find it so far

maybe that is why they are claiming that then. not so much flak rather it's just lining up on some weapons

perhaps the sawing value on the shield was lower previously and it got bumped to the flak level

[summer prairie]

the breakpoint calc was updated yesterday so it has the new weapons/twins now but not like it shows the shield

[orchid nest]

force sword charged attacks infamously have a huge flak boost and they do very little to the void shield still so there is that

maybe just the big hit being capped though I guess

I dunno. I can't test it on the twins in the psykhanium but the regular captain at least the chain weapons fall in line with normal damage over time to the shield

[summer prairie]

If it uses flak, it would have to be due to a bug that makes it use their default breed armor type

[orchid nest]

yeah

surge staff still seems to do decent damage to the shield since I'm here testing it anyways

just ignoring the damage resistance from ranged I guess with the gibbing changes

I didn't realize closing doors on things was actually defined with its own attack profile

Or just 3x toughness

[mint pivot]

1x 21 health / x2 random shit 15-16% toughness because i have had absolutely heretical levels of shit rng when it comes to curios all the way from beta days...

tempted to troll people with 3x stamina / sprint efficiency curios just to shit on speedzealots as i leave them to dust before i die alone 3 checkpoints ahead of everyone else

[hearty dagger]

Fellas, how does this laspistol look?

[wanton sandal]

happy sanguinala, siblings!

[hearty dagger]

To you as well, sibling.

[wanton sandal]

looks pretty great, idk what i'd change on it tbh

maybe bump unarmored to max, or change it to flak

probably change to flak for dealing with scab shooters and elites

[hearty dagger]

Possible

Honestly the main use is when the pubs go full dingus and run away from and completely ignore the 6 ragers i'm smiting.

It's either this or the Autogun.

[late night]

what was it before ghost

[hearty dagger]

I think it was suppression immunity maybe?

Could also have just been Ghost but a lower tier of it.

[late night]

could do unarmored to flak

[near drift]

I've settled on purgatus+wildfire for most pubs cuz I get most of the crowd control I want and the flames actually kill stuff without teammate intervention

Also I just like flamethrowers in general

[near wyvern]

I'd swap ghost into between the eyes

[loud silo]

ye

[visual osprey]

I am so not surprised

why the fuck is it always the zealots man, top tier melee class but all the worst people play them and give the class community a bad name

[tawdry pasture]

Say guy made of bees 5 times into the mirror

[visual osprey]

to preface this all of the literal best and literal worst players I've met in darktide were all zealots

[tired knoll]

average auric damn game with zealots

[brave fiber]

The thing with zealot is that his abilities and weapons are extremely strong and promote an aggressive playstyle, but the mistake with a lot of zealots is that they use that as an excuse to turn their brain off and have zero situational awareness

[hearty dagger]

ah hell nah

[hearty dagger]

I have seen otherwise solid Zealot players run facefirst into multiple Daemonhosts.

Not even intentionally.

Love watching a fleeing squad regroup while a paper thin Psyker holding, killing what the director sent without repositioning too much

Oh, there’s 3 players of damage inside me

[brave fiber]

I can tell you from experience being one of those zealots, they 100% have game volume turned to 10% and are blasting breakcore or some shit

[potent kernel]

merry christmas anyone wanna do a few runs? max lvl all chars

[brave fiber]

*being one of those zealots before I got my shit together obviously

[hearty dagger]

Listen, i run smite because "Someone needs to keep these idiots alive." The gun is there for insurance if you prove yourself to be a mega-idiot

[tired knoll]

thats explains why they always instantly get trapped after running off a billion miles from the team

[hearty dagger]

So it's an absolute disgrace on the entire team if i'm somehow getting most special kills while i'm literally holding them so you can kill them

[tawdry pasture]

Smite* role is one I only say “gratitude” to

[hearty dagger]

Why not a staff so i can be even more supportive?

Well, by time i decide the dinguses aren't killing the 5 ragers i'm holding my peril is already in the 70's.

[brave fiber]

Merry Christmas 🎄 there’s a bunch of peeps in the lfg channels if you want to get a group goin

[tawdry pasture]

I don’t go “GAHDAMN”

[hearty dagger]

Whenever i realize my team is made of people who ignore smited elite groups

[half iron]

i do-a da magic

[hearty dagger]

I literally go from the relatively friendly support psyker to that one guy on yt who just goes "NAH"

I got enough dakka in this gun to wipe out everything in sight except my dissapointment

[tawdry pasture]

skrillex got me moving like an invasive species

[tawdry pasture]

🅿️

Urge to kick lesser male

Must push it down

[lost junco]

How hard is it to get a good staff from the store? Only thing I get is 380 guns 😩

[bleak tulip]

look at the ranged weapon list

and guess

three staves, like 12 guns

probably more

[lost junco]

it always makes me cry

[tawdry pasture]

sticking out your head for the executioner

(a person on the gallows, finding a joke on their way there)

[tawdry pasture]

the executioner lets you go cause you were too distracting

[peak kelp]

is warp battery possible anymore?

[hearty dagger]

This is a PSA to please, for the love of god, stop using Smite+Soulblaze Shriek as horde clear.

It doesn't work nearly as well as you think it does.

[plucky flax]

[inland snow]

use your SWORD in MELEE combat to SMITE the enemy instead.

[marsh prism]

Suprisingly enough the most toxic players I've come across are always Ogryns

[hearty dagger]

I saw someone so absolutely committed to the path of smiteblaze

That she blew herself up with smite

During a horde

The only time i blew up with smite was while i was trying to hold the cursed spawn of the AI director in the face of indifferent teammates.

[glossy ember]

true, they should run surge staff with scrier instead!

[tawdry pasture]

this is the plot of darktide

and elder scrolls

📓

[eager plank]

Theres no flavah WITHOUT SPOOOURTT!!

[obtuse moth]

which one is that?

oh CDR, it should be affected

[ornate hamlet]

Cooldown reduction affects abilities and not blitzes, to my knowledge

[ionic frost]

I feel you should get bonus plasteel if you're the one that picked it up, like 20% more.

I feel used by pubbers:

[mighty fractal]

Late but I’m seconding this

We need a force dagger with Sienna’s dagger moveset + warpcharged stab special

[ionic frost]

A stab special that disables the stabber? =P

Like Obscurus/Deimos?

Or a stab special like Illisi? =)

[mighty fractal]

I’m thinking more like Obscurus/Deimos

Charge the weapon with special, then Heavy 1 stab the target and pump them full of Warp energy/suck the soul straight out of them

[plucky flax]

Fellow plasteels picker pog.

[quartz barn]

getting a new staff would be cool too

slice projectile that either shoots horizontal or angled pls

[ionic frost]

The funny part is if they'd pick up the plasteel instead of sprinting past it to fight enemies while I'm the only one picking up plasteel, I'd be killing more enemies so they don't die. Instead they want me to grab all the plasteel while they die.

The only solution to that would be extra plasteel for whoever picks it up.

Then I wouldn't care if I get all 800 plasteel myself in one run, an extra 160 plasteel (+20%) would be fine or me doing all the work.

Though to be honest in the first 3 minutes of the match I kinda knew what I was going to be getting in to...I decided to stay anyways.

[umbral helm]

still say that upon reaching 30 the quickplay bonus should just get rid of the XP bonus and give more materials

[ionic frost]

I agree, though I don't quickplay yet since I'm still grinding repair/investigation/disruption/espionage missions. I could always quickplay then leave if it's the wrong mission type I guess... =-/

[ornate hamlet]

That wold be neat

[ionic frost]

+20% materials if you quickplay, and +20% for your own pickups. Maybe then people would stop opening boxes and leaving the plasteel behind...but probably not. =P

[mighty fractal]

The funny thing is, I think we have most of the basic staff and psyker technique types that are listed in the ttrpg rulebooks

What I think we could get are Molten Beam (basically just Sienna’s beam staff from vermintide) or maybe Life Leech (reverse soul succ beam?)

[umbral helm]

there's a lot you could theoretically do with psykers because of how the warp works, but they're probably not going to stray too far from anything official

[plucky flax]

I know this is the worst. When they open the box, see that it's plasteels, and don't pick it up.

I'm like

[ionic frost]

Some cool things there... =)

[strong gulch]

I've seen that in my games and I just don't get it.

Like how??

Why?

[plucky flax]

I know.. I had an ogryn, open box, ping plasteels, then ran away.

Truly..

[strong gulch]

WHAT THE FECK

I can't.

[plucky flax]

Idc if they have 300k plasteels. Just pick it up and help out the team. T_T

[tawdry pasture]

upgrading is for dorks
