non teamplay behavior is a game like this is literally just jumping off the map or griefing people with barrels

digital narwhal
#

Them: "Man, sure would be nice to contribute"

paper lily
#

i guess stealth dudes can hard pull stuff to the team too

#

everything else is just a team effort regardless of how it goes down

digital narwhal
#

Trolls and griefers exist, but if these "green circle chasers" are being efficient and not detrimenting the team, then what's the issue?

paper lily
#

honestly i think he's conflating bad players with people obsessed with scoreboard numbers

#

bad players are gonna do shit that appears to be that anyway

#

Stealth can be used well or used badly:

  • which is why there's a mod to avoid some builds.

having a gun can be used badly too if you flush all the ammo instantly

tired estuary

and then gobble up pickups

#

i don't wanna play with someone who is gonna insta avoid a non 'meta' build anyway so no loss there

split oxide
#

I don't use it; but I see their point. (during Camoflage days, I would've used it)

paper lily
#

if its the mod i'm thinking of it just prevents you fromplaying the game

dawn spoke
#

yeah lol

digital narwhal
#

You know people can just switch onto an "avoided" build during the lobby, right?
Some people have taken to using blank builds, and then going to a build in the lobby.

It's kind of funny ngl

Yeah any.

#

Although, the new Combat Knife does have pretty respectable horde management in exchange for lower single target peaks on it's heavies.

#

But the push attack is giga cracked on it, with both a target cap of 5 and high single target damage.

:^)

The armor piece looks awesome so I'd like to get it

#

Combat Knife has better mobility though, which is valuable in a lot of cases tbh

#

Like yeah, Mk IV DSword is cracked, but Combat Knives are still very strong

#

Rending + Bleed is just strong right now as is, so Combat Knives are strong

whats better

dawn spoke

Probably the second one

i was thinking of pulling riposte of it

dawn spoke
#

That would definitely be the thing to do

paper loom
#

then change stam to flak?

dawn spoke
#

And something like that yeah

#

Do you prefer the mk2 to mk4?

paper loom
#

yea rly not sure why

dawn spoke
#

Gotcha

paper loom
#

what do you use?

dawn spoke
#

I like the mk4, it's generally more recommended because its heavies are direct stabs that do a lot more damage than the other duelling swords and are also a little easier to land

paper loom
#

i just upgraded one il give it anouther try

hexed geyser
#

Mk 2 is fine, but mk4 is just better in every single way.

Blows up poxwalker head with mind

#

mk4 is great for single target, but mk2/5 are noticeably better at hitting multiple enemies

#

although mk2/5 still have doses of single target, they're much more useful for crowd clear than the mk4 is

So is the surge staff just kinda garbage now? Feels like it barely does anything

either that or something with assail Sitgryn

I'd like to go brain burst and psionics if possible cuz bb comes in so clutch

Assail and burn yeah

Hmmm

I like ur idea of EP brain burst tho it do be mad clutch

I have a nice surge staff that I'm afraid to consecrate

You’ll never know it’s a brick till it’s too late Sitgryn

Could be good I prefer slaughter though.

Way more power increase.

haughty star

It like 2o percent

dim parrot
#

I play unstable and slaughtererwhatthefuck_heresy

haughty star
#

Yeah that's my dream sword for my melee build

#

My melee build is so strong when the stacks roll but it's such a gamble when I don't have anything but unstable procced lol

#

Waiting to roll slaughterer to make one then I'll make one with the deflector iii and slaughter for my everything but melee meme

sg and melee is very fun

So glassy lol

I'm not good enough to really rock it unless I'm heated up

What are the best stats for the voidstrike staff?

What should I be prioritizing really

If hadron smiles upon my surge staff is there a build that brain burst will work with

Siblings, psykinetic aura trigger on my kills only?

queen fog

Your kills and any ally in ur cohesion to my knowledge sibling thumbsup_ogryn

#

And of course they have to be specials/elites

lethal lagoon
#

I've never noticed it triggering off ally kills 🤷‍♂️

#

But I geniunely don't know

queen fog
#

Ye is pretty hard to test considering base game don’t show us numbers for our cooldowns Sitgryn

lethal lagoon
#

I have numbers and at least from what I can tell, during a smite -> flaming shriek combo, if some plasma goober grabs the nearly dying elites, there's no CDr

#

But like, I'm not 100% sure we were in coherency

#

That's the problem

queen fog
#

Ye a lot can happen in situations like that so u ain’t always glancing at the bottom right to see if everyone’s in the circle

#

Right? Left

lethal lagoon
#

I guess it's easy to test, just follow an Ogryn around while he's meleeing elites.

#

About the fire Trauma build, which perks should I take? The atheneum just says +crit chance but idk about the other slot

#

I got a 78% damage 78% blast radius 79% charge rate and 79% quell speed one

plush oak

Why scrier gaze doesnt work with warp siphon siblings???

will obviously get better warp nexus when I can

flak maybe? grats on the super sexy staff btw

haughty star

I wouldn't worry too much since you can always switch the perk out again later

Definitely not copium

plush oak

Just gotta figure out the rest of the build to go with it :D

plush oak

Or at least it is in my experience

plucky flax

#

I have a good Deimos with deflector, an Illisi with bloodthirsty unfortunately, and a pretty good duelling IV

I'd guess I'd want either the Deimos or the Duelling with it and they'd both be servicable

But read the atheneum which has more details on each staff and recommended stats, etc

#

That atheneum is golden for references, love it

strange vault
#

How do you get those leveled up versions of blessings anyhow?

#

Mainly through melk im guessing?

midnight jolt
#

RNG, and extracted from other staves, acquisitions in contracts can have one or both

midnight jolt
#

I have got very little from Melk, you go and create a plain one (RNG), over and over until its modifiers are decent, then consecrate (RNG)

rocky raven
midnight jolt
#

I can link you the video that taught me the crafting but better YT, the one that is not older than 3 months, some stuff to learn, the basics, etc

gusty furnace
#

There's no good system for this crafting

#

level up to blue if you're wanting to save plasteel

#

if both perk and blessing are dogshit, scrap the weapon at blue

#

rinse and repeat until you find something that isn't bricked

midnight jolt
#

Also, don't craft before you are Lv30

gusty furnace
#

as you're going to be docket gated, not plasteel gated

midnight jolt
gusty furnace
#

yeah, the ONLY reason to go to gold on something that didn't roll well on green and blue is for fishing out blessings

#

hell, I'm at the point where I don't go above green anymore

strange vault
#

I think im stressing too hard on crafting at the moment when im only lvl 24

gusty furnace
#

If I don't roll flak, maniac, carapace, or unyielding(Depending on the weapon), I just stop

strange vault
#

I appreciate all the advice here a ton

#

Kinda burned through a lot of my plasteel already

queen fog
#

That’s fine darktide can be a bit stressful even outside the game flow

gusty furnace
#

yeah do NOT craft until level 30

so i have ripost 4 or pregon 4 what woul dbe best?

#

is uncanny strike good here?

fading wedge
#

Uncanny strike is good on force swords because of the shove attack counting as a weak spot hit no matter where you hit

midnight jolt
#

not sure what to do with this:

long wharf
#

slaughterer if you have it

midnight jolt
#

only have shred and riposte

#

can change exorcist to any of that

can extract unstable power from my old one:

and then change crit to maniacs

if you don't have those blessings, time to spend some Milkies

its one or the other

near wyvern
# midnight jolt not sure what to do with this:

If you don't have a better sword play with it and don't change the blessings. Once you do get a better sword extract Exorcist from this. You never know when balance patches buff and nerf blessings and there are so many T4 blessings for Force Sword that it's rare to see some of them again.

At this point im open to the idea of cosmetic giving small gameplay buffs, 5% toughness etc

i was referring to "pay to twin"

proven stirrup
#

The phrase "pay to win" is poor nomenclature at this point.

midnight jolt
proven stirrup
#

No one's winning anything but people don't like the concept of being able to put money down for direct player power in any fashion

#

That's all there is to it

shell maple
#

Im not convinced cosmetic users will “win” even w the buffs lol, lmao even

tawny pebble
#

well, not in a collaborative horde shooter anyhow

proven stirrup
#

The phrase is just a relic of a time when you'd actually beat other players at something by having paid advantages

tawny pebble
#

absolutely, i'm trash and i just really liked how it looked

midnight jolt
#

Someone will find a reason for that been unfair, that's all I'm saying

proven stirrup
#

There's no need to fish for any reasoning.

#

It is objectively unfair

long wharf
#

the phrase "pay to win" only applies to situations where players compete directly against each other, and buying something in the game with real money gives an advantage against other players

proven stirrup
#

You say that but the term is misused multiple times every day by way more people than us

long wharf
#

every other usage of the phrase is someone complaining about how jealous they feel that other people have something they don't

proven stirrup
#

So there's no point trying to tack that definition of it down anymore. It's long been lost

Well i hope FatShark knows how much it would boost sales even if it’s literally just +1% Toughness each piece

Sure.Sure, you go ahead a

Point is, it's a term for being able to pay for player power

is not lost, I understand the definition, but you get the idea behind what I said, I misused the phrase for the lack of a better term

And the 4% chance to get warp charges

do that challenge during extration sections. some of them spawn enemies constantly, just slay for 5 minutes

it is easier with lv 30

general is easier with 4% chance for any of your or your teammates kills

Fire is better

and I'm guessing is better to not have Warp Battery because it makes the max higher?

plucky flax

I always use the vampiric aura thingy rather than 10% from fire.

you have higher damage with it

Because it doesn't matter who kills the enemy, as long as it has soulblaze stacks you get that 10% chance

unstable power is a great blessing on deimos, but after using it for months, and then trying executor, i find i get alot mroe value from executor

#

the special strike attack to the head will give you an immediate 4 stacks of uncanny strike and executor

jaunty iron

dam I don't have either executor or uncanny but ill keep an eye out for for those blessings

feral verge

uncanny strike is pretty much a must have blessing on any weapon that it is available on

#

including deimos

#

in my opinon, the ultimate deimos has uncanny strike + executor for blessings and maniac + unyielding/elite/carapace for perks

#

also, im assuming you are new to deimos so

#

the best dps combo is

#

light attack, then heavy attack

#

then block

#

the block will restart the attack chain

#

rinse and repeat

#

light attack, heavy attack, block, light attack heavy attack

#

those attacks are stabs, which do insane damage

kinda counterintuitively, you dont really want to use the special pwoer attack that often

Also plasma seems a lot more effective than it actually is cause vets are really good at ruining a psyker's day.

Smite is a good oh-shit button, especially if you dont need BB/Assail to deal with things more than 30 feet away.

And I like BB with Kinetic Resonance + Double Wall Shield and Empowered Psionics + EP on Elite kill. Great for all the gunner spam the game has now.

I don't like Assail (never liked using it even when it was OP) but it does work well with short ranged staffs or to conserve ammo on gunker

Once you get good at it it's so satfisying to pop a sniper's head with the lmb from across the map

They did improve the LMB a bit at least

so, i have come to the conclusion that the only useful staffs are either the purge or Surge staff, the Trauma staff is clunky asf and the Void charges way too slow even with blessing buff for charge. sadcat

I like how the meta actively pisses people off lmao

Trauma users used to make the whole chat piss their pants over the knockdown

That hasn't changed, they just buffed trauma's output at some point

And even then, you rarely see it without blaze

lethal lagoon

Rending Trauma just isn't that fun to use

#

For something to be less effective AND less fun, there's not much sense in using it.

I guess because there's no peril edging on Rending Trauma it might be easier to use?

But it's not like you HAVE to peril edge on blaze trauma

But if your melks are scarce and you are new, it's not worth

hushed egret

mk2/5 are still good, better at crowds than the mk4. even if they dont perform quite as well overall, they still have unique strengths over the mk4 and should be considered if you want a rapier but want more crowd clear tham single target

also just use what you enjoy first and foremost. the balance in this game is pretty good, with a few exceptions
