Tru. I'm a magic man.
hello magic man, pls show magic trick
Gunker is secret 5th class
I main vet so when I play gunker I play it like a vet except I have a big aoe stun with lightning hands
Though I've been using purgatus staff + brain rupture lately
Movement speed go brr
wwow i didn't expect the dips to be so bad
-3k,-2k,-4k
i think its because the game is quite repetitive ngl
It's so close to being amazing 😭
It's there already imo
oh damn.
Yeah it literally just needs more content
I think part of the problem is also the mission rotation as I've done certain missions like 400 times now
It's the lack of new contents.
im on the other end, not close at all, and its not content
its sKiLl eXprEsSiOn
But other missions nowhere near as much
I didn't even know you could buy cosmetics until 30 hours in
Last 2 weeks I've played 3 rounds of darktide.
And over 100 hours of helldivers
Helldivers might get a content update before darktide
gonna pick that up soon lol
I hate how its actually necessary for some weapons to not be mid (power sword)
yeah
im regretful i preordered it ngl
atm im just waiting for them to balance the game.
don't shoot me but i think its kinda overrated/overhyped, given theres HD1
Kinda wish I could actually pick it up now
running into some really colorful people tonight.
Average Warhammer fan
real
more like average internet user really
I've been enjoying. Balance is wack but you don't need to chase rng weapons. Just pick and play.
Ehhh but there's more of those types of people who unironically think the imperium is perfect
And the game is just funny man
i think just an issue with how i have high standards/expectations of stuff now i guess.
think one thing i don't like is i find the movement to be a downgrade from hd1, or maybe im just not good at it. Also weird sometime you can do the 180* dive sometime you can't
Why is it funny to you? like the team kills?
Just the game gives lots of funny moments
The Starship Troopers-esque satire is… a vibe. Having tried out SST: Extermination, I’m not sure I can resonate with it
The rare Brunt W.
Stamina bad but you got all the main stuff you need
The other perk was +pox walkers which it melts through easily
Hadron was nice enough to not fuck it over. So I take those
Trauma staffs on the other hand. Hadron keeps finding new and creative ways on fucking them up
PSYKER BROTHERS
AND SISTER
SIBLINGS
THE OMNISSIAH HAS BLESSED ME ON THIS DAAY
I... don't see the Omnissiah's blessing?
380 with all stats being relatively high, crits are funny, carapace is funny and infested gives the weapon clear (against 1 type of enemy but still)
Could be an emperor's gift
The rare Big E gift being actually usable
this is melk
Melk being very kind
Oh that's pretty good then
skull hilt
I heard the MK4 is the best dueling sword unless that changed recently
let's not act like we can't use something that isn't the best
yes, 4 is meta, but this is still a decent one
No I mean I actually wanna know what sets the II apart
I realised I was being too dismissive already
Imagine tolerating anything but the best
Already admitted to it lol
Couldn't be me 💅💅💅
I just wanna know what it does to set itself apart
I'm not familiar with dueling swords
attack chain and 1st heavy damage breakdown
As I use my Illisi force sword 99% of the time
Deimos my beloved
vs my current 4's
4 is higher damage and everything, sure
meh. the 2's damage ain't great
but still. i'm getting the 380
man the 4 is just.... so strong?
and for what reason?
does it have downsides?
rolling for blessings makes me depressed
The least favorite part of Darktide
Praying that Hadron doesn't find a new creative way on screwing you over
Not great hordeclear
And not a spooky force sword
i suppose, yeah
I think Deimos is even stronger on the H2 but a bit slower
DS4 has the H1-Special chain too
you mean saw single target damage?
Saw?
Yeah, my Deimos is a lot more damage on the H2 than my DS4's heavies but it's obviously a bit more unwieldy
Why can't I tape a purg staff to my Deimos 😔
Yeah, the single-target melee choices mostly favour being paired with an a antihorde ranged
Sometimes Illisi is redundant
If you have Purgatus eg
Recon 💪
Or Trauma
Gtfo
What are you gonna do? Take all the ammo on the map to bring me down by half a wound?
I think Loner would count as a maniac at least
Yes 😎
The times I enjoy being a Hellbore vet "That horde of elites you see. That's my ammo pack"
Atheneum finally fully up to date for Patch 17
Loaded into a game
All my team died
Fought against horde of muties snipers ragers and nurgle
Nurgle eventually picks me up, brings be across the whole map, goes close to the demonhost, and it gets woken up, while I'm inside nurgle😐
I've only ever played melee vet so i don't quite have the same experience
Fair
i think deimos attack patterns are more satisfying
gaze dd, smite and purge?
purge staff would be cool just to stack blaze
3/4 incorrect
bb shriek voidstrike dd
purg also mostly operates at illisi distance so that's complete overlap
but why not do qq swap
gaze would very much interfere with illisi
why BB, with smite you can do a quick stagger and go back to melee
i can also do a quick stagger with my pushes
i forgot vs and gaze both were ults
wouldn't smite staff be better instead of void because the thresholds are easier to meet?
afaik
just curious, im not saying its actually better
i have tried surge + assail too
and i found that, together, those two do what voidstrike does
except they take more time, whereas with void i can just bring it out, fire off a surge doublecrit and return to melee
still on the fence about surge blazing spirit voidstrike
it could potentially make for somewhat improved boss damage
say you shoot a boss with a doublecrit and stack it to the blazing spirit maximum of 6
and follow up with shriek + bb barrage
12 stacks potentially painful
will test later
in my mind, if you are going for melee primariliy,
surge to take out far enemies fast ( might be hard to do with assail consistently due to it needing buffs, but idk i don't play assail)
And then smite for your aoe special butt fall stagger. cuase to my knowledge illisi only butt fall single target on push attack
very possible
personally i never build for boss damage, just feel like its unneeded
I would avoid surge blessing without nexus as your main source of Crit will then be true aim, which is nice but I feel insufficient on it's own
but i don't usually need that level of stagger
the vet that throw 2 krak nades is going to do like 40% of his hp without the nade buff node.
it's perfectly sufficient for my purposes
it mostly only comes out when i have true aim readied anyway
on psyker a5histg and a5mael,
On vet, because i just started, malice 
huge doubt
i have played vet and my kraks definitely do not do that
they do however stagger nicely
Krak nades are strong but on haz 5 youll need more than kraks
Haven't updated that in ages tho
idk most pubbers are very you know, enthuastic about killing the boss anyway
ye it still has the old walls
Dkekdosis damnation* i play too much drg
i miss those, so op
i am on drg right now
so i think boss damage (personally for me, like my builds that i use) is doo doo
New mk6 armor sets are awesome
i don't trust anyone to do anything so i need all bases covered
in my experience, the worse the players are the more enthusiastic they are about bossing.
i had games where 4 of us, (when i decided to just unga with them) were all hitting the boss
sometimes its worth doing something funny even if you risk losing
i saw a quote once "when you get into a lobby and the ogryn says 'protec the lil unns!' you know they will be awful"
fr
nah it isn't that for me
when i see a psword + pgun + shout vet thats when i know no fun allowed
Survivalist aura makes the game so boring
either he effortlessly kills everything due to how busted the weapons (and build) are, or he cna't dodge the doggie
damn haven't heard of you in mordhau
tbh i prob never read any guides for mordhau since i was a chiv1 player
i don't understand chiv 2 at all tho 
mordhau was pretty easy to learn tho, at high levels it was all about animation feints so you just steal them from whoever you were duelling with 
I'm ok with Ogryns as Vet because I use exclusively guns that pierce past allies 😎
there are guns that shoot thru allies?
Ogryns make for the best doors and the worst windows
And the games you're a Lone vet with 3 ogryns so you spend 90% of the game staring at Ogryn ass
Guns with piercing
Revolver, plasma, braced autos, maybe a few more
volvo shoot thru teammate?
I think agri iag does too
Yep. Atleast I know for a fact the zarona does
seems like shooting through teammates follows the same rules as shooting through enemies
in that players have some amount of hitmass and if your weapon has enough cleave, it'll shoot through
this has to be usable no matter how badly hadron fucks it up right? RIGHT?
Good luck, traumas were hell for me to roll at hadron
Oof
Have you prayed to the omnishia today?
the omnissiah is fake
Aint going to get good blessings that way
he is a chaos entity made up by mentally ill toasters and hes no god of mine
Woe. Groaner damage upon ye
meaningless the emperor shall protect me no matter what brick i use
Enjoy your +1.5 stamina staff
Never. Tempt. Hadron
Hadron WILL find a way to fuck it up so badly it's unsalvageable
🤔

blaze trauma incoming?
relatable
Do you need a small loan of 10000 plasteel.
i can pay you back in in shitty surge staves

Oh wow, already at least good
Just needs ONE good perk or blessing and it's amazing thooo
It's not the worst bonus to get
This is my servicable flame Trauma that I hate
See, that's a much worse perk and it's still good lol
It still slaps
Wish Hadron didn't fuck itover so badly
And Trauma staffs Brunt has to offer in a attempt to replace has quite shit
Of the main Staffs I use. This is the best one I own
I do have Surge
I like Warp Flurry more because faster charge speed feels so much nicer to play
Flurry makes it more of a main weapon imo
Surge / Nexus works well with Assail for trash
But if I was using Void for everything I would go flurry/Nexus I think
The more I think about it the less I like Flurry/Transfer though
Void is my active weapon most of a game
Sparkhead. Ulgo remind you to stay near Ulgo. Ulgo protect you
Always have a buddy
Yes! Like buddy siren... or thing that sound like siren!
Buddy siren. Ogryn stick to you when leave team
And I have a shield to kep Ulgo safe from mean shooters picking at toughness
Heehee
I will never get tired of Crushers tripping over.
Trauma should stagger monsters
Also minus crushers that have just recovered from a stun
it's not as funny now they get to fight back a little bit
Psyker at the back line charging his trauma like a DBZ character 
but gotta make rending shockwave a little better somehow right
"JUST THREE MORE HOURS, ASSOCIATES!"
casts it and his head fucking implodes
Going out with a gnab
I believe it was you who spotted me playing today? If you want to see the shredder BB build I was using the video I made about it is ready.
The shredder is used for toughness regen just because we can
if you build it for damage it's just a worse Columnus ofc.
It's not from that match but from yesterday
Heh, old style Gunker
Go for it :D
Showcasing the Brain Rupture buffs with some Shredder gameplay. Note that Empowered Psionics description is a lie, it doesn't reduce the cast time by 50% but rather increases the cast rate by +50%.
No, Shredder is not better than Columnus IAG but it makes a really interesting CC and Toughness generation tool with the right blessings given how t...
brrrt
Will look later on once I have time, thanks 
It sounds terrible tbh but I look forward to seeing what it can do
i've wanted to do some gunker but havent had the time or sufficient weapons available for it.
Get a mediocre CIAG
CIAG is super easy to build
Takes longer to learn to play than it does to build imo
Harder psyker build to not hilariously die on
now i dont know much about these chaos crazies, but oh boy they love their green.
Sometimes even Atheneum writers blow themselves up on it :)
how did they buff bb again?
yeh, thats mostly it i think.
Speedier
The speed talents for it
Also affect the recoil part now
More of a QoL change because you used to be able to just QG to skip it
Isn’t that just resonance and emp?
thats pretty nice
"It's nice having an ogryn to be a front line and hide behind" proceeds run out ahead of everybody
Yes
weird buffs imo
ah thought it was buffs bc the vid
It's a fix that is effectively a buff lol
After cast animation lock went from 1.0 seconds to 0.6 seconds and kinetic resonance & empowered psionics now properly apply their buffs. EP description is a lie tho. It says "50% less time" but it's actually +50% charge rate, so 1 - 1/1.5 = 33% less time. They also now stack properly so if you have resonance and EP both active you have 225% charge rate so around 56% less time used per cast.
Can't help it, I play too much Psylot 
that’s pretty interesting
honestly I just think bb should be able to do bonus damage to unarmored and unyielding enemies, would make it a pretty good option against ogryns and monstrosities
also just makes sense
overall tho psyker blitzes need to be better at high levels
Why unarmoured? It one shots all unarmoured in the game 
forgor
for some reason I thought gunners don’t get one shot
It’s been a while
still I do think bb should be a good ranged unyielding option
*better unyielding option
What BB really needs is it should allow on kill talents to proc whenever the target you are casting it on dies, no matter who killed it.
So things like perilous combustion, psycinetics aura, warp siphon charges, EP stack gain, DD stack gain.
It still happens annoyingly often that when you try to BB a target (especially without kinetic resonance) someone else kills it and this can happen multiple times in a row, making you simply waste time. If it did proc on kill effects at least you would gain something.
Also RMB needs to charge at the same rate as LMB FFS.
true
I like bb as a way to deal with scary things behind cover or at long ranges safely
Which I think they should lean into
They did stack previously, it was just very spaghetti and not at the values one would expect
hey, random question: can you crit with brain burst?
Hm if they made right click charge the same time, there wouldn't really be a reason for left click charge to exist though
No
So you cannot consume true aim with it
ah, thought so. thanks.
Locking on to something then hiding
that’s the point
Fun fact, you get 2 true aim stacks for a completed BB
You can right click charge then just peak to activate BB?
Literally the same thing
Yeah but with the bb detection it’s weird sometimes
I can aim for a sniper and accidentally burst some unlucky scab’s head
No need if you have the leech (toughness on consuming EP charge) and soulstealer. Can just dodge dance in front of gunners while picking them off at the pace of one every 1.3 seconds.
RMB can blow you up easier
Don't you need to left click confirm on your target if you right click charge?
my point is holding left click locks immediately, right click is more to whom it may concern
If you haven't locked on to something before 97% and then you do finish one, you pop
You can transition it to an LMB BR at any point
Well you can still lock with right click charge though
Yes but GL seeing what happens at the end of the tunnel. It's a lot easier to get the lock on with LMB, you jump, aim over and hold LMB. All elites and specials except dogs are taller than trash so it will latch onto any special or elite as that is the nearest thing when you come down.
^^^
What is tricky is the fucking railings
Some railings prevent you from locking on
But you and enemies can shoot through
I'm still not convinced that I would ever use left click charge if they buffed right click charge to be the same time
that’s fine, it’s a difference in playstyle
Sometimes LMB feels better
LMB is optimal peril usage even if they charged at the same rate. You can also press LMB to stop your peril from auto quelling to keep warp rider up
RMB is useful when you know / see the enemy is coming. LMB is useful when you don't have a fucking clue and are going on a fishing expedition.
As soon as I lock onto something I want to kill I hold lmb and can immediately forget about it. Instead I can use that time looking around me, dodging, listening for disablers, etc
So many times I latch on and do a 180
Hm I guess it is just a difference of opinion, I just feel like making them the same time would make one of them redundant
one requires direct line of sight the other lets you essentially fire and forget
if I wanted a long range burst option that does what rmb charge does I’d just pick surge voidstaff
Another example of bots being completely useless
ong wish you can just choose to play without bots
Yeah I get that, I just suppose that because I never really had los issues since I always used left click to lock on before my right click charge finished, if I ever used right click charge
They're trying their best
no wrong way to play the game, do what u want, it’s not like any of the psyker blitzes are particularly hard to use or great rn anyways 
I honestly don’t even have a problem with the ease of use
It’s just that psyker blitzes fall off a cliff in aurics
extremely strong while leveling but just irrelevant once you get some great weapons
it’s hard to balance them because any buff to them will make leveling psyker too much of a steamroll
you jest but unironically yes
it's so hard for me to use without thinking that I'm wasting time
Lol
Lowkey take a note out of league’s book and make psyker blitzes do %maxhp damage that’s affected by armor type
make brain burst do 100% max hp damage
I wouldn't mind that if the charge time was also proportional
The current malestrom is broken af
Brain burst insta kills everything but charge time scales with hp
And you can burst early by pressing rmb or something for reduced dmg
Honestly
Good change
Start of game immediately 2 normall monstrosities and also like 8 weakened
No, make it trigger as soon as it's able to kill the enemy, ie if the enemy is taking damage from other sources, that also reduces charge time
Great start!
That too
The previous 4 games I played we easy af and then this is just brokem
man now I really wish that’s how it worked lmao
i wish that's how it was but that sounds like a bitch to code
they’d have to make brain burst ramp damage as it charges rather than giving immediate damage on burst
boss fights be like: buy time for the witch to finish a 5 year long cast to oneshot the boss
Nah it wouldn't be that hard. Make the BB trigger a damage threshold which increases with charge time, then when the enemy takes enough damage or the threshold equals their max hp, BB triggers
I seriously think this would be hilarious and I really want it now
yeah same
destiny: disrupted
What kind of witch you've been playing with
This is a theoretical
it's not real
Long discussion about potential bb changes
See this
just witchful thinking
And everything under
Would it also scale for monstrosities? 
5 year long cast time moment
imagine doing karnak twins and one of them suddenly just evaporates
witch's ritual completed
How does a shield stop me from blowing a dudes head off with my mind
Bs if you ask me
idk force shield magic shenanigans
Force fields aren't magic, we should have permission to blow their heads right off 
Twins have a protective crystal
lmao
ultimate psyker counter
Is this a thing in 40k? I know grey knights and sisters are kind of anti-warp but i don't know how it works.
Inhibitors are a thing, and blanks also exist
it took me 500 hours to use the RMB brain burst for its intended function lmao
like my first kill using right mouse
Inhibitors are more for stopping the psyker from losing control though, not necessarily to protect them from others
I know most of my lore from tyranid's pov so it's sometimes weird to know what's actually happening.
Although I guess a psyker losing control is usually a daemon so it is actually protecting them?
If a chaos spawn or a beast of nurgle or whatever other warp thing could spawn out of a psyker losing control, i suppose it's to protect everyone
I see
any great Trauma staff builds?
Yes
Check the psyker atheneum in pinned messages, trauma should be there
Ah yes, easy way to get the monstronum penance
This penance is just stupid, it's easy but requires setup
hey assail and smite arent thaaaaaaaaaat bad in auric
for cleaning up trash mob anyway
Quite literally "hold up, let me cook"
But with premade
I hated that penance for a minute because I misread it as “deal 90% damage to a monstrosity with brain burst in one hit”
Now I understand and it’s just like
“Oh…”
It’s the last penance I need for psyker and I will never get it
I can’t get myself to do it because i dont really care about what i get
My psyker alr dripped out of his mind
I'll try the zealot one later
Some people really just have a stick up their ass dont they
Like I get replacing the book contracts but every time I ask if they don't mind getting books and they mention that they replace them and tell me to do the same, they always have personality of a fucking cactus.
it's just that books have been utterly worthless since launch. loot doesn't get better from picking them up or playing auric maelstrom. maybe make the reward double mission dockets for grims and 1/2 or 2/3 for scrips.
mfw:
if books were at least consistent, and somewhat rewarding, people would not do that
It's specifically the people who tell me to swap them out instead of just ignoring me or the books. They're, without fail, massive dickheads.
The guy today like... Lightly(?) flamed the team after shit started going semi poorly. It was a verbal equivalent of condesending side eye.
"Are ya'll just gonna walk around and do nothing?"
Was roughly what he said while the team was trying to pick his ass back up.
Complete with the whole
"Im not talking to anyone specifically" spiel
yeah like even if someone is doing bad if you flame them the rest of the team is gonna feel bad and your vote wont pass
then theyre gonna do even worse
but in my time playing this game ive seen so little people who are actively toxic in chat i feel like im an outlier
ive only seen one person be actively toxic
like maybe 2 in 300 hours
knife vet obv
he ping spammed everyone and ran at mach 7 to elevators
expected tho
you know the statistics ok?
not their fault that knife speed cokes out your brain and makes you want to go 200 miles per min
YES
I've seen more in the last week than in the year before that tbh
Just an unlucky run for me I think
I seen a few more speedy cokesters crop up and most do well until they get Dogged or trapped heavily out of position to die and quit instead of waiting to be resuced
people treat knife zealot as a solo carry when he's much better at objective taking, safe rezing, and picking off out of the way targets
its main character syndrome
I don't judge a book by the cover when I see the build on the team preview as how they perform in game
It's just that the Really bad ones tend to be remembered more easily than the decent ones
hey man ive been maining shroud knife zealot since the talent update came out and ive gotten nothing but nice messages
if you're gonna run that playstyle you better be damn good at hearing disabler ques
Only time I don't hear a sound que is when the game decides to eat it up 
time to see how hadron will fuck my shit up
Here's hoping you can salvage it because that is a nice 380
surge is not that bad to build im sure itll be fine
here's what haddy gave back to me when she was done
Warp Nexus is nice
rip
Sad time.
at least im not a gun psyker
never been annoyed or bothered by gun psykers
i have seen far more vets and ogryns who somehow manage to pick up more ammo, and do less damage with it
Flamer zealot or purge staff psyker wonder why their room smells like an all you can eat buffet 
Never bothered with gunkers either as long as they know not to suck up ammo like a vacuum
Darktide twins fight about to hit different
"I got the melee twin guys 😎 "
What does smite smell like ?
Great thing about Gunker is we also have the strongest Assails and melee capability
Because SG and DD go brrrr
We just go down like a sack of shit the moment something actually breaks through
what do we think about todays harvest?
blaze crit chance on the first and the second well see after i grind up enough for the second blessing
personally i like to keep my toxicity to myself
go up in difficulty
people are generally more chill in auric 5s
from what I hear most of the raging shitters are doing 3s and 4s
i haven't seen any incidents in my games in quite a while lol
It was At5
block and move on then
Already done
If I'm doing a book missions and they're grim. I'll always ask "Grims" if everyone agrees to it. I'll grab it. If not every agrees or I get no answers. I'll ignore it
even in regular damnation people heal eachother and ping ammo pretty well
Pure glass cannon gameplay
I do a ton of Damnation pubs and people are pretty chill and if you're having a bad day most of time they're fine as long as you do your best
When the Surge staff crit, it explodes the target
Does it damage around the target or is it just to look pretty?
Only 1% away from max dodges 💀
just a nice effect
Aight, when are they adding the blessing that it does something
siblings this grind for the surge blessing on a voidstrike is going to drive me insane
Because the surge staff is needing more blessings
wait is this thing like actually not awful now or something
i remember tac axes feeling absolutely awful a while ago
And why does surge (and purgatus) have less blessings
They haven't been changed, really
Only one of them has
So if they felt awful awhile ago, they will still feel awful
I don't think they're as bad as people make them out to be
Theyre tbh ok on vet
Its just that zealot and psyker exclusive melee kinda blows most options out
With how nice ds, fs, hs , thammer and evis are
The problem is that many other weapons have improved while theyve remained the same since launch
Game has been power-crept in values on both enemies, weapons.
Ye
It also doesnt have access/synergy to the extremely overtuned blessings
I actually think BM is a trap cuz it cant hit the BPs needed for it
it can hit the BPs with crits so there's that for it
i consider it a fine weapon but it really is just absolutely overshadowed
i think it's fine cuz when you're making use of BM is just bruiser/poxwalker/groaner hordes
and you're not in need of reliabiliy against trash hordees anyways
and BM is just a nice surprise if it procs against anything tougher
I want to try out headtaker/shred and cut BM
And see how that performs
But havent tested it yet
much to thonk about
So, ummm lmao
Uhh who tf asked lmao???.?
shlerp
Don't.
shhhhhhlllllleeeeeeeerp
@mods ban him
it can hit some pretty decent BPs on elites, although gotta make sure your really keeping the crits up
I'm hoping for a finesse rework
Where they disconnect weakspot and crit
And allow for meaningful ways to interact with both separately
right in the kneecaps
How rare is it? Ive upgraded like 4 staffs with no luck
I tried it on psyker, vet and zealot. It was fine.
(on MK2 and mk7)
What's funny about the taxe thing is that the best players have watched and played with... use taxes
I don't know of it's just for flexing or just a balance of mobility / cleave / crits / DMG being good enough
Which psyker builds are the better ones atm?
plz don't say gunker
you can check the pinned guide for some valid recommendations
Psykun
no! boo! hiss!
What's psykun?
Lots of viable options- but blaze+shriek is a common one I see, also trauma staff and whatever, also crit gunker. I run assail+revolver+deimos+EP and usually top 1/2 for damage, objectives, etc
lately i have been trying blaze trauma + vent shriend and warp siphon
What's gunker?
gunker
Gunker.
ive spent like 20k crafting mats with no luck so far
the most common build is columnus + all the crit tech.
no gun, gun bad!
so its a gun build?
Yep, Gun Psyker
Wait theres a gatekeep, gaslight, gunkblast build?
whyts gun psyker best?
it's not
It's a common build, could argue that it is not the best
gun psyker is super fun
i'm seeing a huge amount of new psykers playing gunker, and i'm so sad
gun pysker can be really good even more effective then more surge staff builds
Staff builds still better, but its nice to switch it up
makes it so i dont have to level a vet
i leveled up a zealot, i think it's a good switch up from psyker
stabstabstab, pewpew, stabstabstab
Which staffs r the better ones?
trauma is the most useful, void strike is the most powerful
purg, trauma, voidstrike, different playstyles with them all
Depends what role you want to fill
Surge ahhahahah
gun pysker
My surge staff kicks fuckin ass
yeah agreed with Ramm, different playstyles, try everything, see which fits your style best
just a dps role i guess
blaze trauma
Gun just does damage and nothing else
i love voidstrike >_<
check out my build in my about me for a good trauma build
trauma i heard is good but it's not my playstyle, you charge it on the ground and explode things, like Sienna's from VT2
like I said it's the most useful since it just completely counters any melee enemy besides bosses
Trauma feels like shit without the charge time blessing
then use the charge time blessing
i feel it
honestly if you're leveling psyker- do an assail build- it's consistently good through damnation- (then you need to learn how to move with no toughness)
I get 2000, i upgrade a voidstrike to get a surge blessing, i get tier 2 shit instead
How does gun psyker keep good toughness gen?
Where am I gettin my blessings then?
i upgrade for blessing and im not broke
melk and mission rewards
I basically exclusively get axes from the emperor
i um, dont think they do >_<
With tons of crowd control
lol
how do they live then? loil
Disrupt destiny or whatever its called
dodge and roll!
shoot a marked goon, get a burst of speed and toughness
but they are squishy
also scriers gaze + peril based toughness regen
soul stealer, one with the warp, endurance, mettle thats all u need
So I use darktide.gameslantern for builds. But some of the most liked ones on some classes can be several months old like 2-3 in some cases. How long ago was the last like major balancing update?
okay XD
i dont think you should be commenting lol
couple months ago
1400 hrs on psyker, i think i earned the right to ^_^
there have been a few patches and hotfixes here and there but nothing major
ok so the builds that were updated like 2-3moinths ago r relevant then
as long as they're after the major talent updates i'd say so
i usually get around 800k every game
i have the most fun on gunker if i have 2 vets with the ammo gen perk
I humbly request you to give insight on staff and guns build and not just say that gun bad
gonna try CIAG tomorrow
It's good to look at both sides of the story
i did XD
dont get use to it if you come to this chat. people dont know anything and will tell you something and not have any facts
That's why I experience things first
i don't like gunker, it's not top tier, it's different, it can be fun, i think other staff builds are better oriented
i always recommend testing stuff yourself
Imagine trusting things on the internet
me when someone discourages personalized playstyles
you run columnus?
i will play the videogame, i WILL acquire The Fun
sometimes havnt run it in months tho. I use heavy las, both revolvers, auto pist sometimes, and prop some other ones
i like the revolvers, but i cant play with em
Im currently running columnus, but the emperor gave me this and I was wondering if I could make something of it:
Does surgical apply to both shots of the Vraks?
What are the go to melee weaps for us then?
depends on the build
Right now im running a crit assail build
if your primary is bad at horde clear you want a horde clear melee but if your primary is good at horde clear maybe you want something like a mk4 dueling idk tho im new
i got the voidstrike that shoots the giant ball for its secondary
ah, the bowling ball
is that one a good staff?
very
they are all good
depends on blessings and user
cause im running assail the build creator says its for big single tareget kill
it can bowl through hordes
sure y not; i'd probably run mk4 duelling sword or deimos with voidstrike assail
you have assail for any close-distance crowd clear/control that you need
farm true aim stacks with melee when needed and throw out an assail shard here and there with hordes
you can do surge void strike build then do flick shots to shoot two balls at two diffent directions in a huge horde to kill twice as many pox walkers but this is kimda advance
Anyone done a melee psyker build?
yeah ive done two kinds
Be interested to try one of those once i have crafting mats again
mm, blessed charge time
what u mean is u spam voidstrike balls at ur feet and pray none of the 4 maulers that have locked you in a corner overhead you
i haven't done melee build but i'm curious
sick bastard
Mostly with Illisi
you can do that but i prefer warp nexus if i am doing flick shots
I really want to get surge so i can put it on this
Deflector + Uncanny
best staff to take in a CIVI hands down
UNLIMITED POWERsurge for popping dudes, trauma explosions, voidstrike explosions, the magic flamer that actually does something,
Not a really interesting build
I thought surge was good on trauma staff until someone told me it doesnt proc for the secondary. Was excited when i got this
thats a big rip
tragik
- Mr. Bean
Dumb that it doesnt
I already have to take a nap while it charges up, just let me hit twice
Magik
@spice veldt
no
Assail weaving being busted aside
assail, mettle and soul stealer
I am noticeably draining what little sanity you have left
There will be nothing left
If you use an illisi with soulstealer you won't really have a tg pb
Then you have crits, peril dr, assail, bubble, shriek, dd...
Why was mark 4 dueling or deimos suggested for horde clear melee when there attach chaisn are all single target?
deimos is single, slash slash slash stab. Slashes have cleave
Im struggle do the poke combo
top damage, top kills and i get kicked for taking ammo -.-
and i was reviving / doing obj's
On malice?
ye
peoples in Malice have been so mean lately >_<
Something off on malice
Im learning pretty quickly while leveling an alt that the quality of teammates you get matched with at lower difficulties are a special breed
Some guy kick the dude now Phantom get kick
might be a contributing factor
they're just jealous because you're superior, sibling!
I leveled some new characters recently and I mostly just got potatos
Saw a psyker on heresy who only used BB, and charged into everything
Lol
i had a guy like that too, single normal mobs, but he was new and bursting heads is fun so i get it >_<
I think the guy was in the mid 20s for his level
yuh he's probably just enjoying popping some heads, it is a neat ult, dunno of another game that has an ability like that
Oh yeah I did see one guy repeatedly complain about normal damnation ai director when it threw stuff like, 2 ragers and a bulwark.
"What is this, fucking auric?"
I think is a same guy kick you
My character was a femaler psyker named Yvette
it has been pretty hectic lately, i think auric's is messed up too, i couldn't get a full group last night
we played with a bot the entire map >_<
I means is probably same person who kicked other guy on malice
oooh
With voidstrike staff, do y'all always do full cxharge ones or do u spam off small charges?
Full charge
last update mixed up a bunch more psyker hats to have and not have scab voice filter messing up my list. does anyone know if gnosis pattern rebreather has it
Deimos? Light into Heavy into block into Light into Heavy. You can also block cancel to reset and spam out Light pokes.
Tunnel vision issue
does how long u hold right click on purgation staff affect streength of the flames? or does it just make the flamethrower last longer and thats it?
We look very similar lmao
why mission have this green sym bol at bottom now
difficulty level you completed it at
Before we had no indicators of what mission types we beat on damnation. 😆 made it fun trying to get that penance, you had to write them down somewhere and hope the missions popped up when there was at most 1 or 2.
I wish the accatran was good
We all do.
so is that currnet symbol damnation?
i assume its the number of chevrons
yeah the 3 skulls is damnation
can this be used for gunker? I'd swap out the blessing obviously once I unlock dum dum etc
this thing is still great right?
we met brothers
lol nice
pants isn't red so i look more like a soldier than an actual cosplayer
Man, what's with these server issues? Is this a current thing? I've never been DC'ed before and now it happens at least twice a match
Ye switch carapace to flak
OK cool
no cool vet cosmetic in shop so...
And dumdum obviously when you have it
Yeah vets don't have the best cosmetics really
they have the cool hat
and some nice coats but those aren't on rotation
I actually just put dum dum on it, guess I did have it
vet gets the most love from dev
huh you can do pallete changes?
sorry it's late, I meant I wish you could
So I got sustained fire which is ok? Do I still change carapace to flak or change out blessing?
sustained fire seems weak
this is when you roll for another weapon brother
Haha that's what I was thinking too
no point asking because after asking you will feel this is still kinda suck and roll for another weapon anyway
good point
I'd rather get a decent dagger at this point anyways, I'm trying out the trauma staff
i would suggest
if you want a weapon
don't stop until you get one that you deem worthy
some weapons dont need godroll which is why i didnt say godroll
at least, you won't be stuck feeling like shit
I've got basically enough for 5 viable builds right now
just want to kinda switch it up every now and then
idk even thenm i would stick to one so you can try out the weapon in its full potential
^
rending trauma generally works best with warp flurry rather than warp nexus
this for surge, that's what I use the most
Yeah I didn't unlock warp flurry yet sadly
that rashad not gud enuf 
that's my favorite melee on any character I have
i cna tell you if you hit 80 80 76++ rashad you will have different breakpoint
at least afaik
you should test it in psk
80 80 76 is dmg pen fin or what?
Rashad needs to hit a breakpoint for bruisers
damage, pen, then finese & FT
Afaik
ya @magic kayak
For BM
your damage and pen alr too low
for one shot?
I use disrupt destiny and scriers gaze so I tend to crit a lot
let me check
I should be able to one shot bruisers basically correct? that's the breakpoint im going for?
it should be 1 hit after some very light buffs.
Caxe does not have super great crit multipliers iirc
i checked godroll caxe can't one hit at base
you can see after my headtaker procs its 1 hit
.77 crit multi on light attack, I shot shot after a few swings especially on flak, that isn't using disrupt destiny buff though
I do have headtaker I could swap to
dats weird, can you show us a video?
but to be honest, once disrupt destiny stacks up that's more power
sure one second
Ok so I misspoke, unless I am running scriers gaze or have disrupt destiny buff up it wont one shot without a crit
ah
do you have loadout config
can you help me test something
wait nvm i finished loading
the loading took forever
I was about to download that, I need that mod for sure
Can you test disrupt destiny with loadout config?
no i quit
going to go do my stuffs now
good luck dood
The problem is that all the psyker exclusive weapons are so strong statwise and have excellent finesse scalings
It's very hard to justify other weapons, even when theyre quitr good weapons
you could play devil's claw for unlimited counterstrike memes
but like
why
half the fun of picking certain weapons is getting a unique interaction with the class
force push on laspistol is funny, for example
was literally the entire reason i got one in the first place, lo and behold it ended up being absurdly good for gunker
Devil's claw was shit before patch 13, amazing at patch 13 and then shit again after patch 13. Why FS.
Because having bad weapons in the game is not necessarily a bad outcome
what made it good in patch 13
what made it bad afterwards
i think devil's claw IV is like, alright-ish
decent enough vs unarmoured
good vs ragers while you have stamina/perils if kinetic deflection
agonizing on armor
Increase of enemies’ hp across the board
And probably in-swarm elites
Just played an assail round. I can feel the nerf. 
Switching to uncanny melee and not getting it kinda sucks.
epic obscurus
Cower in fear, it's the obscurus
unfortunately, obscurus
Fortunately, I love collecting junk
Damn if mobility swapped with warp resist and if it was an illisi.
obscurus has really weird attack patterns
Then you get 25% flak and maniac. 
illisi propaganda 
Psyker's best melee.
Yes.
😔
Maybe next time
My illisi is so good only warp resist is a bit low.
59%. 
I got the longest ship in the galaxy.
Best in its role at least. Obscurus doesn't really compete with it.

I would unironically like to have a 0 warp resistance Illisi
INSTANT 100% peril whenever you want
Bring able to pump peril on demand is important tbh
Any Venting build needs it, any Warp Nexus build
Plus the toughness generation possible from it/quelling it
If you don't want to spam specials in melee I guess.
I wouldn't use it as my main one but still
I think I'd prefer a high peril Deimos
Since my Purgatus build is the only one which really wants to build peril faster but struggles
All my others I tend to struggle more with not overheating
And it's not as if you use the Deimos special much
You can still spam. Either HLHL charge works off cooldown OR if you have the balls slightly charge a heavy light and then another slightly charged heavy.
Yeah sure but you can't specials as much as high warp.
I myself prefer high warp resist.
A normal ass heavy instakills every special except for a mutant
Fair enough
Normal heavies work great with DD and SG stacks
Which is fortunate
Because special is suicide in late SG
It's such a power trip to one shot a mutant with an Illisi
Like, this shouldn't be able to do this
With such a wide sweep attack
What is the specific bonus from Illisi special?
I have a 5% it's glorious 🔥
you need uncanny on deimos
Meh
I normally 1 shot anyway because I've burned them
And i have max peril when I use it
@feral verge say the line pls
While true, Deimos and Obscurus are able to open bullwarks by hitting the shield with the special
It's not that important but it's good info to keep in mind
ik deimos can poke muties, but is demis or illisi better against specials/elites
i asume demios
because illisi hordae clears better
Found some weird interaction, Obscurus second heavy plus a well timed dash to the right throws maulers and crushers to the ground
non charged right
Yeah
its very butcher knifey
i dig it still
has its playstyle for sure
Does anyone use this , if so, what are the advantages you see to it and what would make it better?
Maybe give it some amount of actual healing?
Most of the ”benefits for going down” talents blow ass.
Like if the player is revived, team gets 25% corruption clear? maybe that would be a good option
agreed
and i think its because there is a balnce of it being useful, and being taken advantage of
I think corruption clear would open up some random exploit
Now, hear me out, make the talent give a perils explosion when a teammate dies/downs in coherency.
trying to explore tree, but just dont see giving my team 50% toughness every once in a while in lue of just anything else
like, without popping?
No, THEY explode.
oh wtf lmfao
The Marty zealot now has a REAL use for all those wounds.
also, decided to mess with Warp Rupture in my build, it's a thing that does things sometimes too.
Which talent is that?
yeah
Aight, that's a funny way to slander
its a thing that exists lol
Kekw MASSIVE damage falloff.
Hey, I use that one because my play style
Warp shotgun
it is a good way to apply rending from what i can tell so far
or that slight damage hit just makes them feel squishier
Oh right, that’s how that works isn’t it.
Don't use it to push bursters
kinetic flayer proces and echose through what it hits, it sounds neat
nooo
i made that mistake out the gate and sent my teammate flying lol
Lmao
its cool when it does kill through, because you like airbend them dead
Now on a scale of Laspistol to Strikedown light on the blastoom gauntlet, how viciously does it launch?
its definitely just a normal push with a lil bump in it, but it is quite satisying getting a group low on health and just pushing and theyre dead
its just not that many lol
4-7 out of say 20 poxwalkers?
Damn, they robbed us of a COD Zombies Thundergun equivalent.
