Wildfire is sick 
basically maxed 3 tho i think you can slide by with 75ish on first target, 78 on fin or dmg
- good enough roll for both executor/uncanny blessings and at least 25%cara perk to be on ti when done
This is the best I've ever rolled (and I've rolled a lot) and it still is only 1060 damage.
Damn, Discord.
Anyway, it's 76, 75, 80.
it's shit sell it on ebay
Absolutely bonkers breakpoint to even try for, tbh. I can't think of anything harder except maybe like a perfect Power Sword, and even then... not really that.
You can change two of anything.
SINCE WHEN
you need 9000 damije to at least kill poxbursters by running into them
since a long time ago
Let me introduce you to getting a perfect blaze trauma (it's impossible)
damn i thought you could only change one blessing
now i gotta grind blessings extra hard ๐ข
This is mine. It's not perfect, honestly.
@graceful geyser Bot in the chat. See above.
bob in chab
i want the ranged block on one and the other idk
Yeah kinda rip 
I don't even think Trauma is that useful, honestly. I know, I am gonna get a lot of hate for that, but I just can't make it work and I've got some damn good staves.
firefart trauma is plainly luck and most of it isn't lucky
Slide > Deflector ๐
also im pretty sure only force swords can block dogs if you time it right
i've had way more fun with zapstaff ventshriek flames
Duelling Sword special staggers them, then easy kill
sometimes trauma continuously makes the entire map burn but sometimes it's a lukewarm eugh
ye i need to give dueling another try
which isn't a problem on zapstaff ventshriek which you stack up in a couple of seconds
are all dueling swords the same or is there a meta one?
mark 4?
I like your PFP and name 
I stopped using Deflector.
Dome + 3x combatAgilityRegen: 6sec between domes.
i also like them thanks
DS4 is the meta, check the atheneum please, is pinned here ๐
All weapons and meta perks (tier list, etc) are there
great for that kind of information
4 has a pisseasy super damaging heavy stab
ye thanks
makes mutants cry
yeah, if you time special properly you mess up the ragers and even crushers
i'm a stickler for deimos and it's POWER STACKING AAAAAAAAAA but yeah
no need, the athenum should be a Chrome tab always opened ๐
just ctrl + F any weapon
Discord media processor is fk-ed
damn you free service provider
They ran out of potatoes
i will try anyways
that's incense
wow!
for pleasing the machine spirit
it has electrolytes
ffs let me post my chainsword again
THIS
now that I think about it, that's a surge PC 
Anyways, somehow I have become a promoter of the atheneum, siblings get out of my head 
it should be your 1st source of info
poogix is grate
no joke though i've snatched the zapstaff ventburn stuff off of his guide and never looked back on my GAWDRALL void
I have both with their respective god roll, but they can be better rating wise
as much as i like deleting lines of existence and having more overdamage+damage than the rest of my team combined
zapstaff is just brainmeltingly chill
sideslide zap sideslide zap sideslide zap
all the while you get to spam your vent with fire like every 10 milliseconds
while on void i have to actually aim and hit headshots and sideslide bowling shots are infuriating
do true aim works with purgatus staff?
what's highest level of deflector?
i have 4
only void staff can hit weakspots
pity
voibstuf
tried a new cadia themed outfit on the psyker.
where do you find that lol i cant find it in the store
its not in the store. i used a mod to customize it
emperor be praised finally got a deflector
it's for peopel who bought fatshark premium
its not bad tbh might just change the stamina and the riposte
avoid obscurus
damn
why?
anyways heres my gold drip
sweet golden boiii
"Obscurus Mk II is the worst one of the three as it has worse horde clear than the Illisi, worse single target damage than the Deimos and shares the animation lock special with Deimos"
oh damn nvm
i used to love it because of the hilarious forcesword-molesting animations
i mean it's still a weapon. but no
it suffers from a terrible animation set
This is the Purge build I put together because I don't know anything. What should I adjust? I just played a game with it, came in second for damage, first time I've used the staff, got the most kills, but I am obviously still learning the thing. The lack of some kind of range indicator on it is hurting my head a bit. I keep firing and not hitting anything.
it does the work if you talk in terms of whether or not you're able to hit enemies. you can still kill a lot of stuff, but there are wildly better options. unless it's going to get retouched (and i think they will at one point) it's practically gimping yourself for animations
which i find hilarious
the animations are fabulous
you want Warp Rider 100%
also recommend moving some of those overkill toughness nodes down to get the addtl 5% CC since crit is your catalyst for DOT stacking, +kinetic deflection
Which nodes? I don't have any that I can't skip, unless you mean Quietude because Perfect Timing seems really strong so I can't give up Mettle.
you absolutely keep mettle/ PT thats core synergy & toughness regen
But then Battle Meditation seems pretty strong due to not having to worry about building too much Peril as a result of it.
battle med doesnt really matter; if anything it will mess with your tempo of trying to stay ~80% for warp nexus
high quell speed multiplier 1-2ticks is all you need if that, fit them into your didges.slides etc
Can you blow up from Purg like you can, say, Assail? Or can you just keep firing it until it hits 100% and then it will just stop?
you referring to primary fire (which you also QC for firerate) or secondary
Secondary.
its technically possible, but not like mindlessly spamming assail. quite difficult imo
rclick most of the peril is the charge-up, the channel is like 5% ticks iirc
1 sec I'll whip it up with flex options for you to mess with
Okay.
personal preference; Ive gone both ways on it; if you are playing damn+ you'll always have the stacks restored immediately = more soulburn vents to overstack
and then they die > stacks back with dmg buff
whats staff roll?
Not great, but okay. Don't have the cash to burn on anything else right now.
twisted firefarter
thatll work for now, you got the 2 BPs
wym not great
ya wait a min... purg has super small warpres variance you're fine lol
^^^
Alright.
you've got more or less of a godroll
Keep in mind, I don't play Psyker.
you can now spam it in discord and lie about how you do like 4 times the damage of the rest of the team
I literally got my 250 Penance on it done via spamming Orthus with an Columnus SG build because I couldn't find it appealing, but I am trying again.
obscurus is just terrible overall no? like, deimos is just a better obscurus
yes
deimos even has better horde clear due to the higher dmg
not like, terrible terrible. but in comparison to other things - yes
it has decent cleave too
you can do things with it and people swore by it in the olden times. (before illisideimos dropped) but it's obsolete when there's the rest of psyker options
they should just change obscurus special to make it fire a warp blast to deal range damage when u swing
make it a true jack of all trades
not this half-assed jack-of-all trades that doesnt jack-of-all trades better than deimos
had a good one that i decided to just sell after deimos illisi dropped
honestly i just stopped playing it once i got a good combat axe
pre-brutal momentum change ofc
i still have my thrust4 antax
Discord media processor fixed?
That's my baby
my purgatus
probably not but running around like an idiot with rev it up is too funy
that's peak meme
to be fair i do get quite a bit of mileage out of it
but is kind of bad
psyker with scriers and defy destiny 
stack bleed on fat thing then set it on fire with my fartvent
besides on monstrosities, it'd have minimal effect on stuff that actually matters
you can do that better with a zealot and flamethrower 
i mean like crushers
i dont touch other classes
cuz most other things are easy enough to kill just with the rev alone, and the bleed has minimal impact due to that
hell nah. Purgarus is S tier on High intensity
I have a Zealot and Psyker, I started with Zealot, I was thinking Psyker wasn't for me, now Zealot is my secondary, mostly I play both for weeklies
problem with purg is that it has such a huge lack of range and heavy boi dmg
except for leveling them, ofc
purg will shut down anything but a crusher and has pretty respectable monstrosity damage which most psyker builds do not have
it's rly nice
bugattus is funny
one day I will level the other 2 I don't have to 30 ๐
bug spray out of a stick
your Vet and Zealots will delete crushers better than you do eitherway. Focus on dense hordes and 20 berserkers rushing you
i leveled them all in nov 2022 and then stopped touching them
you say that but I find myself taking care of most crushers with ds4 in anything below auric damnation
people are scared of em
Me poking them with DS4 special and taking care of them
well teamwork is the name of the game. To be fair, a psyker can only do so much while sacraficing the other.
Voidstrike can help but still
bring BB to deal with crusher. Knife to yeet your way outa there when things go a lil spicy.
i want to get zelit up but
Psyker is superior race, it has to own the responsibility 
until i roll a thrusthammer me no wanna
bb for crusher, purg for horde, how do u deal with shooters?
you got some flex in what you do with the highlighted nodes, def other options to play with but in general id lean toward elite %aura for soulburn dmg over CD; the 10% from aura here is basically 3sec off the top vs the elite kills from psykinetic/Warp battery
ZAPSTAFF FOR EVERYTHING
BB and Purge combination. You use Knife to close in on them.
personally i think pairing assail with purg is the better option now, as much as i like brainburst as the og
then have an elite killing melee like deimos and you should be fine
i use BB to deal with snipers as well
thats why i prefer that more
ye ik that, liek dueling sword or deimos or some shxt
my hangup on this is you lose out on the weaving + wildfire/psykinetics/
yea, same here
personally its why i just dislike purg staff now
Still stuck at 117, what am I missing? maybe it got there when I tried auric levels?
deimos uncanny/exe pairs very welll for purg
exe?
executor
ah ok
Knife is great though for closing in on shooters due to speed boost. All you need to do is stagger them.
heard that the special can stack multiple uncannies
stacks uncanny and exe at same time in fact
i see
wow that's cool
yea i'll chase for that
guess no slaughterer
it's still alright, you can keep up stacks easy
nah, deimos moveset doesnt make as much sense for a horde mgmt perk
not pre-patch slaughterer but
its just to have it be as versatile as possible
tbf if you're running deimos, its for singletarget smackdown because you got something like purg and dont need horde mgmt
i have a purg, but i rarely touch it, i pair other stuff with my deimos
tbh i find assail rarely useful on some really high intensity maps. maybe because of my playstyle.
could be, it depends
kill up to a crusher in 1 spec instead of 2-3 and go deal with next problem, thats your versatility ๐
i've a melee psyker build that really highlights the way people usually use assail
post-nerf it needs to be weaved to be viable
Thanks
u save up the stacks and only blast them all during an elite horde
like say a group of shotgunners, heavy gunners, ragers
that's the main usage of assail
is to save it for a horde
u can use it outside of hordes as well on like trappers, and what not, but u're kinda wasting it if a perfect situation to use it presents itself afterwards
justifying the loss of core top-tier talents on left side tho for occasional specific use-case 3talent investment is also hard to justify imo
not sure about wildfire, but the cd perk is pretty dope
however its still just down to playstyle
wildfire would be specific to burn trauma/purg
my melee psyker build runs warp charges, so i've got enough cd with that
ye, exactly, that's why its just "unsure", it depends on context
oh forsure, its psykinetics mostly, too good when riding the warp
some nice deimos spam.
Thing is, isn't Empathic Evasion extremely powerful given the sheer volume of crits you will be dealing? Like I mentioned in the last game I did, I managed 1.2k crits, that's... like 18 whole minutes of range protection.
so much easier than vet pwsw6 cancelcombo
do u even need to cancel with block when u can just follow up with heavy stab?
regular stab spam, you can follow up with heavy and block to reset
o yea, right, stab only comes out during opening
regular ones is way faster tho, deletes enemies rlly quickly
so after the first stab n heavy stab, there wont be any light stabs unless u reset
eh, its a "nice to have" imo; positioning >> more dmg output per-talent vs rng reliance for evading a bullet or 2 here and there wins in\ my book
i forgot bout that
i only use heavy if i want to knock crushers and ragers
depends on the context, what weapon were u using to get those crits, and were there even any range targets
purg burn
well, in this context u get those crits from burning hordes
Yeah, but I can't see what I am hitting, it's just fire. That's going to be my biggest problem I think - telling how far away I can be to use Purg, versus how far away I can't be.
unless the rangers are behind u, u cant really be hit anyway due to the horde blocking them
thats 100% a feel-it-out thing you get used to
i would say that empathetic isnt really worth much except in a few situations
I dunno man, I've played a lot of games, and elevated shooters and gunners who have even just a 5 degree inclination is enough for them to shoot over hordes.
primarily it would be the use of columnus
well, its down to u
if youre riding high peril, the constant DOT deaths + 33% DR you can just take the occasional shots and go about your day lol
And Shriek, are you guys just spamming that whenever literally anything comes within melee range?
- im sure u took toughness regen on warp kills, which provides massive generation in horde @brisk lance
no, when you vent over 83% peril, it applies 6 additional burn stacks uncapped + knockback + reaaly long range
if u truly wanna test the effectiveness of empathetic, it would be to go up against a massive group of shooters
very versatile > burn down elite pack quicker / vent on 2nd horde wave and forget about them while they die in 5sec / space clear for res etc
only then can u truly see if its useful or not in your build
at that point in map, you're prob just way out of position tho lol
i meant like first contact
I am just going to mod myself to be very short so they can't shoot over the hordes.
yea making urself as big as possible is a mistake
especially when u realize u cant really use cover well
where it kinda falters since its only 1sec, the windows in-between crits cause you to still take stun/slow and some bigger hits will mess with your casting anyway stopping the chain... idk just too much rng for me
so i used to run a columnus build with scriers and defy destiny
if pants-down, pull out the deimos and use that kinetic deflection to survive lol
on the way to defy destiny there's the true hit talent which guarantees crit every 5 weakspot hits
gunker is a totally different conversation lol
well, i did say that it was most useful on columnus
Yeah, even I was smart enough to realize I could just do that.
and maybe shredder, but shredder is kinda weak rn
That's how I got 250 missions done on the Psyker without knowing how to play the class.
also assail, every barrage of assail at least has a crit or two
and since it can penetrate multiple enemies u can sorta lengthen it
besides these, most other weapons are too slow to really utilize empathetic well when outside a horde against pure gunners
facts
as great as i do think they are, they're just kinda limited by your equipment and build
idk which purg stick you are using but i usually gauge with the hit marker
what, like red means u hit something, blue means shield ?
oh u mean to know if u're hitting stuff
just takes a little playtime to feel it out
u can always just test the waters a bit by left clicking a couple times to make sure u're in range
the left click has good stagger anyways, wont hurt to stagger them first before blasting them
go full googlemaps and drop your ping at feet for distance readout lmao
"you have arrived at your destination" 

How
How do I do the penance "not even close"?
I've killed a poxhound with BB while he was running, while he was midair and while he was on top of an ally, but it still didn't register
have to pop him while hes mid-jump targeting YOU

pre charge brainburst
easy peasy
only left click it to pop it when its jumping at u
Thanksss
if u bring Empowered psionics, it'll make it easier as u wont gain peril while pre charging brainburst with a stack
so u can keep it pre charged indefinitely
u got it 
Serviceable?
Thank yoooou, just did it :D
congrats
usable
would be best if u get any kind of warp flurry for the last blessing
if u do get warp flurry, switch both perks, weakspot dmg to crit chance
and unarmoured to some other form of dmg, like unyielding/carapace
I get one chance to get a blassing then can change the perks:
or maybe just wait for another
if u can get shred it'd be best
personally i would wait for another
altho decimator isnt bad but with your attack speed with this axe, chances are u'll keep missing attacks and lose decimator stacks
so headtaker is preferable
the 2 perks are kinda bad as well
yeah, that's my reasoning to wait for another
shred/brutal momentum + headtaker(decimator works if u can cope with it) for blessings, for perks u want crit chance/flak/maniac/unyielding/carapace
Brunt trolling:
damn that's sad
good thing about tac axe is that u can rely on its crits to deal similar dmg to basically everything, so any dmg type will work with it
comes down to preference
but fitnesse is so fk-ed here ๐
i mean i aint asking u to buy that one
that one sucks, dont touch it
questionable drip
what is the name of that upper piece, it combines well with trader 's hat but I can't find it
penetration isnt really too bad of a dump stat since u rely on crits anyway
alexa play everywhere at the end of times
Fireman's Psyker build?
I got one that's nigh perfect for it and i fucking hate axes
My brain took 1 minute to remember the "piece" spelling
no, that's pretty bad
wyt about purgatus procs the thunderous
I should try and brick this one ๐
light on fire with purgatus, switch to axe, it's called a fireman's psyker lol i think it's in pins
I like the ruined copper look.
More interesting than what I've seen most people do.
oh that's what u mean
yeah the dot procs thunderous
is it bricked already?
lets just be real here, the dmg isnt gonna be anything impressive
mostly bricked
if u get good ones on the last 2, it will be unbricked
but that's kinda asking for too much on hadron
limbsplitter good for bossing
not that it'd stop be tho personaly
unless u're gonna never use the axe for horde clear, else u better have brutal momentum + headtaker
also, brittle maxes out at 40%, and every thunderous blessings rn only applies 2.5% brittle per stack
its really not that good
despite it saying 5% per stack, it's really just 2.5%, they just forgot to change the description
and limbsplitter for boss dmg is just way too slow
headtaker easily outvalues it with a few extra swings
it'll instantly be worse than headtaker by the time it comes back from its 3.5 second cooldown
with the help of dmg stim which gives free rending and increased dmg, and the axe with t4 thunderous, and multiple fully charged purge staff blasts and venting shriek, i reached measly 150 dmg per soul blaze tick, with a dps of like 140-150 as the result
just using light attacks with the axe with thunderous itself killed the crusher much faster with a dps of 350
whatever fireman psyker shxt that is, its trash
bro you literally felt the need to write me an essay about how you feel
i assume u use this fireman shxt on crusher, since everything else can die easily to fire

u can keep coping, no worries, i dont suffer
just make sure u dont switch out your fireman build
i'd say the one that wrote a 1500 word dictation on how they feel about a weapon is the one coping
cant count too?
sadge
just another day in psyker lounge ig
i said there IS a build for it you fucking dumbass lol
followed by I DON'T even LIKE AXE
suprised you can write that much but the reading comprehension escapes you
followed by limbsplitter is good for boss dmg
im sure u support the fireman build too with that mentality
keep malding my guy
plus just being passive aggressive when i talk about the axe to someone else when u "dont like the axe"
ez clap
Next Psyker outfit and emo ๐
only people clapping are the people at your funeral
ugh only slop in the store
Oof. You big mad, ain't ya soyboy
sure, u know everything bout me right?
2 peepol which names i don't recognize calling each other coping
im just waiting for a regular to give their objective take on which is better so i can take notes
u dont recognize me?
im sad
siblings please we are not enemies!
he thinks limbsplitter combat axe is good for boss dmg
lol, yea the guy giving his take is malding apparently
ig anyone that disagrees with your opinion is angry
its ok, psykers are usually delusional anyways
if they acting big angy they are
ig u chose that dreaming dude
which you are
you insulted me and wrote a fucking essay about how wrong i am for saying opinions are objective
you are textbook definition
malding
and it's sad
lmao where did i act angry?
also hilarious for everyone but you
these are just straight facts
gg ez clap
and u just went to "objective coping"
ez
man u can only type these same words repeatedly huh?
clap
guess that's how repetitive your life is
cope
video games
keep repeating, i'll be off
seethe
nah, just kids
good luck with the malding
they make creams for that
draw him as soyjak
meanwhile
Look at this jank ass sniper spot
Fucker was shooting us the entire open area
there is an upper body that has a proper neck, I can't find it !!!
like a shirt neck
I'm obsessed, I need to find it or my peril is going to go to 350%
I saw it once on my lobby, I should had taken a screenshot
psyker doesnt have many good sets tbh
ogryn and zealot have the best stuff imo
Getting cheeks clapped from heaven
is clapped gonna be our new inside joke now?
Still not as bad as vet tho
Everything looks the same lulw
all vet gear is pretty much less dirty gunner and sniper gear
There are some nice Pysker gear
i like the new tundra gear
Yeah the tundra set is pretty aite
save for the astronaut helmet, its ok but kinda weird
i like the new white set thats pretty much it
u look like u're going to a casino
first time i saw it i was like "who the fk is this fancy pants"
Waiting for this set to appear again
ogryn was the only one with a christmas hat too
biker gang psyker
is blazing spirit maxed at 3?
not bad
4
love me some <UNDEFINED ITEM>
undefined item best item
If you're talking about the one on void 3 is max yes
on force swords 4 is max
isnt soul blaze not not the best?
The crit on a void would do more than what it brings
so you're better off with Surge or nexus/flurry
does staff share blessing?
Nope
no
๐ข
blazing on trauma
Yeah pretty much the only staff that blazing is good on
i'm making a trauma
Is this on trauma?
yes
which staff would you prefer? modifier wise
or at least 2 good perks so you can rebless
spent like 20k plasteel and only see nexus 3 ๐ข
far from this, is had wine + goldish textures but a leather neck, my English isn't that rich to name whatever some jackets and shirts have on the neck part
I'd take the first one
54 damage on surge is yikes
it seemed to combine well with the trader's hat
looks like a skyrim retexture tbh
I like it, it somehow hides the stupid cosmonaut neck ๐
but I can't see it on gamepass commodore's
You gotta wait for it to reappear
seasonal?
Might take awhile
ahhh
What's the name of the English period on which Bloodborne was based? I wish they add outfits from that period
Victorian?
yeah
My brain is half functioning today ๐
gothic lace frills outfit when
Sheee this would be sick
But only if fatshark makes the faces of the ops non-dogshit
greetings freaks i just wanted to quickly ask before i waste my time, is melee crit psyker a thing rn?
no
eh it's doable but yer a bit squishy.
for melee metas check the atheneum, all recommended weapons are there all with some form of meta builds, is pinned on the channel
Awesome thankya
rejecc meta
I think the closest you'll get to a crit melee psyker would be running scrier + dd with shred illisi
meta is a good place to start for beginners (not saying you, I am for that matter), it helps them understand weapons, etc
makes sense
i just wish scriers + warp charges werent bugged. it could be interesting to have super low cd gaze for peril gen
melee psyker is so punishing lol
by the time you get to 30 you should prolly have gotten one copy of each weapon i say try them out and then see if there are builds of the weapons you like
its a bit like columnus 5 gunker. dps demon but lacking everything else
I don't think it's bugged
I think it's just spaghetti coding with FS not knowing how to implement the cd after it ends
it is. charges dont affect scrier cd
it's just SO glassy
i have a buddy that just automatically runs VOC vet any time i jump in my scriers/dd build lol
it's like literally about as hard as it get's for melee wyt about
yes it is great lol
but it requires great focus
this is not a flex fyi, but i really have loved doing high toughness/reduction with a powersword on my vet and ive solo's mauler/crusher/rager hordes
cant on my zealot
there's no huge source of regen on psyker
which is why i asked
Melee pysker is great, it feels better than zealot for me
again it is great
but glassy as hell lol
one example
duelling sword special attack, try it on them, you wil love it
we don't need video examples loil you ain't proving that it's not delicate lol
you can't tell newer players somethings great cuz your gamer chair reeks of this game lol
from the atheneum:
Nothing is "great" for new players
great would include survivability not insane melee skill
There's a reason why people play games
What are YOU on about mate
If you're inherently already great at a game from the start
It's immediately boring
melee psyker is hands down the hardest melee build in the game to play lol i don't know why you're arguing just to argue
that's all i said from the start and you can't discount that, because it's true lol
From my conversations with you in the past days, you're the one always unecessarily hostile
So
I won't even bother lmao
i mean you just tryna argue that melee psyker isn't hard, and "jUsT pLaY bEtTeR"

maybe if you wouldn't sound like a elitist conceited prick people wouldn't be hostile to you XD

sorry most peoples gamer chairs don't smell like yours lol
Considering almost every conversation towards you have led to "arguements" as you deem it
I don't think we are the issue if you're the common factor

na bro ez clap
ez clap
ggez
There is general consensus and the fact that skills and difficulty are subjective, some builds and statements are generally accepted while others could be a beast in the right hands, what do I mean? there is no need to be right or wrong so both, hold hands and chill ๐
it just irritates me with this discord cuz you havve like a handful of players that have eat shat and slept on this game since launch that just run around claiming everything should be easy and act like it always was to them lmao
idk sounds like skill issue to me
sounds like a lack of touching grass to me
idk sounds like skill issue to me
mad cuz swassy
melee psyker is hard
been trying to but he rejecting my advances
end of story lol

there's nothing to contest there
hard in what way?
it glassier than any other char specced out to melee main
I have really strange luck with knives. i literally bought 5 from brunt, and rolled this, and it's pretty much as good as it gets, no?
compared to my old one which was literally the first one i ever rolled.
that's all i said and he just runnin around with the usuall skill issue nonsense that plagues this discord lol
Melee Psyker can be hard for people that haven't played lots of melee games, I don't struggle with it, as a Sekiro veteran it feels easier for me, but ... it doesn't mean it isn't hard
weak spot to maniac, and smackdown to flesh tearer, yeah?
it's still objectively harder than any other class
I don't know any knife enjoyer that uses Smackdown
yeah that's unmodified
yes, you have to play almost perfect, two hits and you are done
and Flesh Tearer always struck me as a poorer version of Lacerate
or one
I'd rather bleed on every swing than rely on a crit to cause bleed
especially since Lacerate 4 takes two swings to get 8 bleed stacks
well the guide suggests:
S Uncanny Strike
A Flesh Tearer, Riposte, Mercy Killer (with bleeds)
B Executor
C Lacerate, Ruthless Backstab, Precognition, Haymaker
Garbage Smackdown
as a melee main for psyker while the glassiest it's hands down one of the funnest if you on tho. haven't specced out into anything else on psyker yet tho cuz i wanna perfect my gear for it first
Lacerate is not bringing any proper value on Psykers as we have nothing that scales with bleeds and the knife does a lot more damage on weak spot hits.
well, that's fair
I have a DS4 with shred and uncanny strike ๐
I don't think of psyker as a proper knife user, either
oh, Pygex added knife usage to the Atheneum
im going for illyses with uncanny and slaughterer
i have uncanny and unstable on it rn and it's okayish
I'm trying to have every fast weapon that can combo well and is fun so I can vary
honestly, if I see a psyker with a knife in a PUG, I just assume they have no idea what they're doing
I prefer dueling sword mk4 for when I want to go faster
I may not go for knife but there is tactical axe for example
Sometimes I play knife. Sometimes ds4.
yeah the ds4 seems based as hell if im being honest
They serve similar purpose to me. Knife gives better monster damage. DS4 better crusher damage.
illyses so based for general purpose tho
knife feels like a more reliable mobility stick ngl
Empathic evasion feels kinda busted with trauma
So long as something is near youโre in the clear lmao
I've not seen anyone say they're a melee main on psyker but glassiest
Does it? I don't run ee on my trauma. 
Is it considered being glassy if you can just dodge everything
Or block without stam usage
You already hitting that crit may as well get infinity range dodge from it imo
I don't have enough points. 
Didn't link anything my friend
Worth buying this from Melk? I haven't used the Illisi at all yet so I'm wondering if this is worth?
Can't think of what I can drop on my trauma build.
There we go. Lol
not worth
Ehhhhhh if you have nothing better at the moment ie a straigh up upgrade in stats... Sure
But otherwise no
I'd consider it bricked
sometimes dodge isn't a option my guy. melee psyker has some of the worst toughness regen options and one or two hits to the tiny health pool and you dead
this is all i was saying from the start
be eliteist and cry skill issue all you want it contests nothing i said lol
You can dodge even standing still
This is a game TO dodge if anything
just spam spacebar if you're complaining for new players and it works out
this is because psyker has better toughness gain built around peril
just play melee psyker with illisi
You can even regen toughness BY blocking
Okay thanks. If you wouldn't mind. What's the ideal setup for the Illisi?
unless you're generating and quelling peril regularly, you aren't going to feel like you have toughness gen
flak maniac for perks, slaughterer uncanny for blessings
If you want a simple template to follow you can use this
but its honestly really flexible for blessings
From the pinned atheneum
But yes, you can basically run whatever on illisi
But I'd avoid blazing rn
if you to feel like your toughness rarely goes down in melee, play with an Illisi with kinetic deflection, deflector, the quell on weak spot hit blessing, and the toughness gain on peril gen and quell nodes
yea i forgot bloodthristy is a thing, only useful on illisi
ikr? im giving up perfect timing for it but imo the ability to ignore gunners while booming crushers is worth it
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/build-editor?id=9b15a47e-2d30-4de2-bd55-a437ebb32380
this is very true, I spam dodge sometimes, but you have to enable certain options:
but like if i had two more points perfect timing in a heartbeat
EE is one of the best nodes in the entire tree
especially if you intend to be critting often
basically it depends on your equipment and build
everything always does
but getting free range dodging for 1s whenever you crit is noticeable
I enjoy Blazing Trauma Staff because played well you can borderline ignore the Melee half of the gameplay lol.
Blaze Trauma, Venting Shriek, Brain Burst is my main Psyker setup.
I feel like soulstealer is too good at toughness gen when surrounded to give up along with wildfire for perfect timing
And quietude is just idk I feel like I couldnโt play right without it
wildfire has nothing to do with crits, though
wow someone experienced helping rather than saying skill issue, strange and nice to see lol
problem with soul stealer is that it doesnt work too well outside of crowds
being passive-aggressive isn't going to make people want to engage favorably with you
Perfect timing increases damage by a lot. I don't think I can drop it.
oh definitely, Perfect Timing is nice
ikr, this guy just refuses to admit he's wrong
same with being elitist tbh and forgetting the time people spent working up to where they at
my comment was more about Wildfire
what does EE do again
stop with the victim mentality
I have been playing for 10 days, take everything I say with a grain of salt, but I'm also "old" ๐
There's nothing elitist about anything bruv, you're just taking everything personally like a kid
Iโm gonna give up wildfire and warp battery and see how I feel
empathetic evasion, dodge range attacks automatically for 1 second on a crit hit
why warp battery?
ah here's the insults again
you and @mystic burrow must be besties
Not wildfire nooooo 
psyker chat is bad for this
text book malding
tbh
i think i dropped that because on voidstrike i don't feel it as often
yep, it happens on most staves
I could see there being a small bit of utility with Wildfire for blaze trauma, but there are honestly better nodes to get
u charge too slow for it to be useful when u need it
We don't want your petty little fight in here, get out to clean the chat
i think if its like 3 seconds with half a second cd i would take it
unless u're being nailed by gunners behind your back while shooting voidstrike at a horde, u wont feel it
Wildfire in my top 5 talent. 
that'd make it too broken, its meant to be paired with machine guns or assail
nope, u dont
wildfire fanboy

yikes
when its activated u dont get suppressed
You're basically immune to anything that "shoots" with EE proc-ed
you're passively dodging ranged attacks when EE is active
The best use with it, is EE on purg
Fuck me for playing how I want 
that includes not being suppressed
Where gunners are just shooting bubbles at you
yes, for shame on you
hmmm
never said you can't
but on my end i can laugh at you 
Doesn't matter still top 1%. 
@haughty star in my experience (30+ years playing video games and more in life), don't take anything any random say personally, I ask stupid questions and do my research, I do have skill issues from time to time, coming up humble leaves no room for anyone (if there is someone) trying to mock you or anything, so, just try to move on, and the other party, chill, bro, stop teasing too ๐
That's the point of that talent.
With enough Blast Radius Blaze Trauma really doesn't need Wildfire. Arguably no build needs Wildfire. It's just a bad Talent generally. It's fun to see the fire spread but that fire will never kill anything and hardly does anything noticable.
It increases your burn damage by like 30%. 
yeh but is it meaningful damage? 
30% is quite the big number to be fair
only u failed wildfire

wildfire is not increasing your total burn damage by 30%
its always your fault 
that's a really big claim
I didn't say that you weren't doing soulblaze damage
but that Wildfire isn't a significant contributor to your total soulblaze damage
Warp Syphon and Warp Battery question, you get initially max 4 warps leading to 16% extra dmg, so adding warp battery potentially increases that to 24%, is my assumption correct?
what the hell is the music in the background?
One of the most based video game ever.
How much does 1 stack of soulfire do over it's lifespan, anyways?
vibin music 
its this dude's boss music
he is the boss
it may be getting misattributed
I think it's like 4 per tic
If you have wildfire to "pre-prep" hordes, one tick of blazing spirit will finish them, no?
the guide has the numbers
I like wildfire and I think it adds value but ๐ข I feel like perfect timing will do more more reliably ๐ญ
Yes I run both.
I would expect Perfect Timing to be far more valuable than Wildfire
On the other hand Wildfire would be absurdly busted and probably the best Talent in the game if it worked like the description said. If every soulblaze kill spread 4 soulblaze stacks to every enemy in range it would kill everything. No one else would be allowed to play the game.
Least bad thing I can cut for two points
Now you're at 4 stacks but it thinks its cuz of wildfire
Go to minute 6 for the vibin part 
shxt, now u cant fault him
on the video

I soloed a horde + bunch of elites + plauge ogryn.
Wildfire saved my ass.
And a bunch of specials too.
Wildfire incredibly based.
iirc somebody mentioned wildfire doesn't actually do what it's described as, it spreads 4 sb stacks across multiple enemies or something
ie:
if only 1 enemy, it gets the full 4 stacks
if 4 enemies, the 4 sb stacks splits so that each enemy gets 1 stack each
I think you're overestimating just what Wildfire is doing for you
correct me if I'm wrong tho, basing off of somebody explaining it like months ago
So I don't think... wildfire does THAT much
Yeah itโs definitely fun for that but not having to worry about range is maybe more commonly useful
so, Wildfire has limitations
1 stack could absolutely be hitting breakpoints when combined with other sources 
it moves up to 4 stacks off a dead enemy
it will not bring another enemy above 4 stacks
The problem is that it doesnt accumulate stacks
wildfire is based if you're soulblaze focused
Pretty much correct. But it's worse than even that. If an enemy has more than 4 stacks Wildfire will do nothing.
It doesn't need to?
and it tries to spread out the transferring stacks
So if all enemies have 3 stacks
Hrm but you cc the shooters cluster even if you miss with trauma.
It's hard to properly test ee with trauma.
Its impossible to give more than 1-2
the left clicks never cease to amaze me
Machine gun. 
not if you have nexus on trauma
Auric Damnation but its foggy and game spawns in like 10 sniper at once is truly a darktide moment.
Because you cannot transfer stacks to another enemy unless they have less stacks
your left click only purg staff is still my fav video
If you can quell cancel lmb well you don't need to bb.
I like bb because friggen specials running away
No like you literally dont understand. An enemy literally cannot get a meaningful amount of WF stacks due to the mechanics
does it out dps the secondary fire?
Nope it's way less dps. But it staggers ragers. 
And shotgunners.
I think it does still add stacks to enemies that already have sb stacks, I tested awhile ago in the grinder, with wildfire + perilous, I can add 7 stacks (3 from pc 4 from wildfire) onto 20 stacks of sb to a total of 27
It doesn't need to? It starts with one, get's 3 from blazing, I think the weaker version of basic horde dies from that, no?
Itโs enough to take them down below BPs
Right click doesn't stagger shotgunners and ragers very well.
i imagine it'd stagger everything except for maulers and crushers
Like wildfire definitely underrated
It staggers maulers too.
Esp for trauma
Only can't crushers.
but this is the "perfect" situation so not really that consistent in a run
@plucky flax how do you stun the dogs? block + left click or special?
Stun dog what how? You sure it wasn't a push?
Id like to see a control of 5 games without and a experiment of 5 games with
Scoreboards
when you catch them mid air and throw them aside
And lets compare
๐
Nerd
Can you give timestamp?
I had my friend Wydon Jablomi do substantial testing on it
he makes it sound like a side dodge into a hit/push when a dog pounced
Read the name slow and youโll get it
Unless there's a scoreboard for pysch, there's no meaningful way to really collect any data like that ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Heโs Spanish
0:50, I watched it better now, seems like a push, your muscle memory is quite fast at this point
Would need fatshark's backend
what a gabroni
Yeah it's push attack. Push him back then push attack stab to finish it off.
You can compare dmg attribution to total dmg
Veri cool top 1% moment.
As a ratio
You can, but that varies wildly.
Like try testing PC while playing with two plasma vets
i've been liking that with the new knife
Worst talent in the game in that scenario
been scoring a lot of dogs that way on my vet
Yeah mk6 knife on psyker is so good. Just push attack only and stab stab 
Flesh tearer on psyker and vet.
show me one with DS4 Sensei 
It's for when I have to deal with monster.
makes sense
Since trauma is kinda slow against monster.
Understatement of the decade
all staves are quite slow vs monsters
Well I did kill the plague ogryn with trauma mostly (creeping flames xd)
Just a few minutes of running around in circle. Xd
three hours later
what I love about Psyker is that you have to get good at melee, which I love
I'd much prefer to be at the bottom of Warp Siphon
Trauma means never having to get good at melee
I miss unlimited dodge on blaze swords
No warp charge generation is bleh
I am zealot and psyker main. So my melee ability is ๐
So I was a little wrong. Wildfire will not bring enemies above 4 sb stacks but it will refresh the duration and consume those stacks from wildfire. So kill enemy with 7 stacks next to 2 enemies, one with 0 and one with 4 stacks. The one with 0 will get 2 and the one with 4 will have the duration refreshed. I assume Perilous procs after wildfire so in that perfect situation you killed an elite with 4+ stacks next to a single enemy. Wildfire transfered first then Perilous added 3 because Perilous doesn't have a cap.

I have a Zealot 30 as well, on my 10 days of playing this game ๐
I also came from vt2 with nearly 1k hours there.
I always have plenty of quell
So I was already used to FartShart melee gameplay.
That is a solid reason to ditch ee
Ehhhh sound's about right
Refreshing burn is very good
VT2 I'm waiting for their next sale to get everything, I don't want to pay โฌ94 for their whole content
rip ee
Dump the peril toughness, grab the 2 warp charge nodes to reach the end, grab toughness on warp charge gain if you need toughness
I regret not playing VT2 in the past
Iโve been thinking about going back to vt2 for some necro Sienna action
Zombeh eh eh eh
yeah, I originally had that, and then I thought "but what if I need to block?"
I didn't understand what VT2 was from the ads and ignore it ๐ฆ
but the good news is that while some of you suckers will be starving for games, VT2 will be a new experience for me ๐
The necromancer got me wanting to go back ngl
You can play it anytime
will they nerf psword and the pfoom pfoom gun for vet?
every vet is running that and it seems OP
It's still a good game
Itโs about 4, no 5, meh it doesnโt matter, kooky friends out on the town
You block then quell between blocked hits?
Only took em a decade to add a sienna class
or, with trauma, you just quell for a split second and then blast everything around you on their feet
idk if they'll nerf plasma, but i doubt they'll touch powersword
Took them awhile BUT THEY STILL DID IT
that dodge range is already pretty trashy
I really wish FartShack would fix the aiming mechanism for trauma
The hard part about going back to vt is friendly fire
it seems so good for how braindead it is to use
I can't imagine farming gear, but chaos wastes seems like a good time.
it doesn't even take long to charge
crusher weapon takes longer to charge jesus christ
they should consider reworking powersword is what they should do
Ps kinda needed if you go exe
It's actually quite a fair bit easier than darktide
Unless they changed anything
I remember it was quite easy to farm gear
power sword needed if go executioner stance?
Giving up quietude? Iโd feel crazy without it. Also soulfire wc bad actually
i dont really think so, i run combat axe with my exe stance revolver
why? you get the wcs back so fast
My understanding was that you farm the lowest level, which seems awful lmao.
In Fire Reborn does not require that you get the kill
Even faster when 4% from team tho
just that the enemy dies with soulblaze on them
B/c sometimes no fire
Also in a Blaze Trauma build the best options for Monster dps are Bloodletter Chainsword, Duelling Sword 4 headshot spam, and the easiest one everyone forgets is Brain Burst spam. BB spam isn't the quickest but it's 100% reliable and still does decent work. Also works at any range.
But sometimes no fire ๐ข
Honestly it's been so long I actually don't remember now
It's boring but you're not forced into doing low, it's just you may get unlucky teamates
I just spam emotes
All I remembered was that there were "meta" missions to farm
QP is the same fucking missions every time in vt because of the farmers
DT really fixed that blessed random spawns
@mystic burrow at least revolvo pre nerf and even post nerf its good but you need to headshot
pfoom pfoom gun just aim in general direction and red mist
well, they can nerf it if they want to, i wont disagree with the nerf
They need to nerf draw time and long range accuracy on plasma
Bolter treatment
there's no reason for plasma to have any long range accuracy issues
does anyone know if a demon host counts as a boss for malleus monstronum?
No scope, no sight. What are they even aiming with?
yes
it counts
aight
the Emperor guides
holy plasma
Alright so
weakened monsters from maelstrom/auric maelstrom also counts
People who say toughness curio over health curio for psyker are wrong and bad and I am mad at them
trying to start another argument?
honestly, they gotta give psykers more base toughness
Yes
