it would be a cool spinoff from venting shriek and smite to blast a kinetic electric field that stuns the group in front of you the same shape and CF for like 2-5s depending on peril level, and gave a little charge rate increase for a few seconds
but then i just picture i smite playuer with all their laser weapons laughing maniacally
its beautifull
will use this one instead
makes more sense
I’m going to have a stroke
Siblings. I think we need to check this Skudie person if they been corrupted by the void
it is a lvl 4 blessing, but not the right one
Trauma, clear hordes, downs any melee annoyance
Keep the team safe
Or the alternative
Smite is better for that lol
Smite
smite surge is always going to be useful
Glad we're on the same wavelength
If you're able to land constant headshots. You can keep spamming it charge orbs down hallways
And then I just saw the Charge stat

The problem with that stat is ambushes, its very rarely the enemies line up properly
put flurry on that instead of stustained fire and change one of the perks to flak and you have a useable staff
ye i feel you i only got those through melk after a lot of grinding
and it was finally a lvl 4 blessing but it wasn't one of the good ones
Could be worse
need to level my other psyker character
Hadron could give ya Terrifying Barrage
but it's such a pain
i actually kinda like terrifying barrage if i have nothing else
"could have been sustained fire"
or "could have been opening salvo"
could have been wall gunker
best part about getting terrifying barrage is that you know you wont get terrifying barrage as second blessibng
truth
There's times I where if my Perks are good
goo
I will refine the blessing as Barrage Just remove that fucker from the pool
that's actually a good idea
i'm poor like 95% of the time but that's genius
is there any melee blessing that's that way?
When levelling your trauma's stat is gonna be poopoo.
anybody wanna do this with me in a bit?
how do you even do that
Need to get around actually doing that one day
who even makes that a challenge 
I think they fixed it that Brain rupture now works on it
must've been long ago that it needed burst specifically
a friend of mine did it with rupture semi-recently (last patch)
I can help ya with it. I need to get around doing the same thing for my Psyker as well
i don't think bots would enjoy us doing this, unless we let them get downed and just do a duo
The bots are gonna be the most annoying part
like, i would have gone full solo but bots would have been asses
Wish for private games you can choose to disable them
ye that does suck, only chill with a full squad, unless u wanna wait for them 2 die
Would be best to get a full squad to attempt it rather than wait for the bots to stupid themselves to death
I managed to do that as soon as it was released
With a random team
I just asked them not to attack and they actually listened
still need private match
uh no
My Kin on the Imperium , read
in the past there wasnt such a restriction, caused some angst in the community
still does apparently
What abblity should i choose?
bubble sheild
🤔 useful given how fragile the Psyker is?
Pick the ability to match your ranged weapon
what weapons do you plan on using
If you go Guns it's really sad to not take SG and DD
Which staff
Idk what staff is the best?
different weapons do better with different abilities
They are all totally different
there is no best staff
don't touch staff when levelling
there is no best weapon
All of them depending on what you want to do
There are best builds, plural
las pistol then?
peesword + peegun "best" build
fite me
But not overall best singular
You can take staves if you like lol
Dont touch Trauma till 30 tbh
just buy the highest rated weapon available at weapon store.
But Purgatus is fine, Surge is fine
Idk about Void for levelling but probably fine too
And I'd honestly recommend Venting Shriek with Creeping Flames for starting out
don't touch void while levelling
OK Void bad for levelling too
pygex made a levelling build
But Purgatus and Surge both love to have creeping Flames shriek
made by pygex
huh
Frankly all builds do, it's both probably the strongest in isolation and also the best for beginners
levelling build
soulstealer?
magic missles go hard
I’m starting to consider taking Soulstealer as somewhat unnecessary 
And not just on non-staff builds, mind you
soul stealer make me be able to tank zombie hits
very funny
shoot one void half toughness comes back
same as one illisi special
Or assail spam
Imo you want as many distinct toughness sources as possible
Don't wanna eat a melee swing in between top ups
And Soulstealer is a strong one
I remember doing that when i was leveling, i would tank hordes with assail, before it was nerfed 
Now i only use smite as a utility
Generates toughness on warp attack kills
thats useful if i use assail
Yeah, I take it even in my gun build
its useful if you wanna be useful
Assasil is so fun i fear im making my teamates mad when i run Sidition missions
Assail is overtuned as fuck below Damnation
Also being above level 1 is overtuned for Sedition lol
If you have your proper blitz you can probably just do Malice
dw pubs on sedition cant think let alone experience feelings
i mean you can do malice level 2 but the issue is even if you can play weapons are so shit one groaner is gonna feel like a crusher
Assail goes brrrrrrrr
yeah but i really felt that when levelling other chars
It's fine though, you can just grind them out a bit. They're a lot less punishing at least.
on malice i really hated assail players
shoot the only guy i needed to gain toughness off from / proc some buff
Then when the horde comes can't do shit
fashion has truly peaked
fs are bastards, they sell you a red set, except move the red headgear out of the set in place of a black one so you need to buy the red one

i just got the yellow red pants from the recent set to pair with my old set 
wdyt about psyker and chainsword? 😄
Chainsword is just generically great iirc
Honestly a toss up between pre skill tree vet and post skill tree psyker for shittiest leveling experience for me
Bloodthirsty is not that great of a blessing rn
Pre tree Psyker sucked too tbf
It was better because of Surge being different from now imo, it kinda covered for Psyker being anemic because it was almost pure support
Now at least Assail goes brrrrrr
I couldn't speak for it as I only did vet on the old system and put the game down cuz it was empty before skill tree
Pre tree Vet was also kinda sad but still strong enough
Ult refresh
Goes brrr but only at 30
I do love me surge tho for my psyker. Haven't honestly tried any other loadout for it. A surge/smite psyker increases team survival rate alot
its a pretty good weapon for dealing with armor
Idk, Void makes me kinda not see a point in Surge really
Too one dimensional for my liking but it's pretty popular and strong
Ulgo try psyker. Likes brain burst! Kill mutie and armor good
Also great for gunners and snipers!
Them too!
And it sets up Bulwarks to get killed by your team
Agreed! Very usefull
void is still pretty much our plasma rifle
Void you mean?
Surge I guess is good at serial one-shots on elites and specials
Yeah that's what I meant
Is the left keystone or middle recommended more for Surge Staff builds? I don't find myself swapping to brain burst very often, but I guess I like having it cost zero peril
I'm currently running bubble as well for the support, but haven't tried shriek in a long time
If you're not going to BB much then go left keystone. You'll get extra damage for your Surge and Peril reduction as long as you can keep good uptime on your stacks.
Idk how much I would bother with brain rupture for a surge staff though
Don't they both do the same job?
I'd probably go venting shriek, smite and warp charges tbh
Ya, that is what it felt like in that match. Was reading that BB is nice for long range, but that is very situational
Your Surge kinda does your mid range for you. Maybe take Assail instead if you want to keep the longer range options?
I've been toying with going back to the original Surge / BB now that they fixed the Celerity Stimm. It'd be nice again for Monstrosities on weaker teams.
but up to you obviously :)
Is BR more dps on a monstrosity than Surge then?
I always liked BR spam for bosses
easy and safe
genuinely one of Psyker's better options
If I recall correctly, it's more dps as long as you get to focus full time and you have stacks to burn. Now with the stimm fix, you can rapid fire for a bit.
Actually, looks like I was wrong. Surge is still better DPS
That's kinda sad. 😛
Yeah, don't bother with rupture on a surge imo
so surge does better boss damage than brain burst? even with resonance?
much to ponder
hard pass on it
@austere crest nice try, we kinda fell apart when big daddy chaos spawn jumped in with the horde.
do again?
Assail is very good for spread out shooters
Yeah I’d do it again. Didn’t pay attention to what the other psyker had otherwise I would’ve picked gunker lol.
Surge with warp charges and creeping flames spam is cracked.
Yeah, max warp and max perfect timing stacks to start, Surge was killing in around 1m 15s, BB was 1m 30s ish. Same with running EP
Awesome I'll give that a shot tonight!
or does surge crit a normal amount
You know what I've been in a rut with psyker lately. Imma run it
since the crit bonus stat says something like "melee critical strike chance" at the bottom
It's crit chance. The text is wrong.
okay so surge tops out around 50% crit chance
give or take
7.5% base + 20-ish from the stat + 5% node + up to 20% nexus
the faster quell might actually be solid on this thing
Obviously need to run sciers 
scrier's gaze so you can blow yourself up faster with surge
on another note, in my experimentation with surge + assail i found those two tools to be about equivalent to Just Running Voidstrike™
was that with or without kinetic resonance
maybe surge assail is meant for a different setup
but then again i heard assail does well with true aim
much to ponder
With Kinetic Resonance. Shortest I seem to be able to get a BB kill is around 1m 15s, cycling Vent twice even at the cost of charges. Surge I was doing in 1m 10s
Neither was using the Stim though
I do have the faster quell since I those times were down the Warp Charge tree. My Surge has Flak and Elite on it.
1m 10s BB if I pick up the +5% ranged damage node with EP
i feel so strong, the quell speed node is such a dramatic change in output efficiency
its like my required reading
quell node depends on how you like to play
If you keep heat high and quell between casts it doesnt do much
i feel like it would be either core or pointless
I've never really used shield before, but neat that it doubles Kinetic Resonance. With a Celerity Simm and dropping both shields you can BB a Nurgle to Half in around 10 seconds.
Since you don’t run warp charges to cooldown your venting shreik I’m guessing you just save it for emergencies if you blow yourself up right? Could easily get rid of the upgrades to venting shriek then since the damage is middling and have 2 extra talent points to use on talents that get constant uptime. Just my 2 cents. I ditched the upgrades to venting shriek in exchange for some survivability talents and it helped tremendously in auric damnation
Could use the 2 talent points to dip in to the base keystone of either warp charges or empowered psionics
Fire vent is too overtuned
Not taking it is simply gimping yourself
Its like vet not taking ammo aura
The 1-2 points you saved are not completely worth it
Taxe tbh is kinda a pro weapon lol
It has great boss and elite damage
But you dont really have any of the shit like rampage or slaught or cycler to help with clearing hordes
So you end up kinda having to rely on your raw skill and fundamentals
Which i personally am too lazy to do
I prefer having an overpowered weapon with cycler BM cara and just stat checking hordes and crushers
I was actually surprised by it. It actually felt pretty good when I was running the dogshit Exe MF Recon night
But why use Taxe when we have DS4 which is Taxe on steroids
Ye exactly
That's why i only bother with the generic melees on vet
My taxe, knife, dclaw are all on vet
Zealot and psyker melees are hard to compete with
RAAAAA FEED ME HOARDS
Anything new in the past like 2 months
They aren't ready yet to share. If there's something new you'll see it here
phone posters smh
4am confessions
ocassionally, i go to reaction test websites to tell myself that im not getting old
how does it compare to caxe for elite damage/
i thought htey had same thresholds
Much better because taxe is a finesse weapon
It has much better crit and weakspot scaling
Caxe is mainly good because it can take advantage of BM
Which is op as fuck
no i mainly use it to presoak rooms or leave them too soak. i hate getting stuck with trash, shriek and walk away lol.
But im really kind of into the Warp Rupture one its kinda dope
Taxe BM is inconsistent cuz you need to crit, which makes me want to drop it cometely
though even just half the time is p good
so what threshold taxe can hit caxe can't?
Taxe just has higher dps
Albeit the individual hits will be inconsistent
Since you have to depend on crits
Compared to a caxe where you can guarantee the BM threshold for example
higher dps because of speed or the base damage?
also if talking about threshold, why does bm come into play
i tot bm is only for hordes / blobs
i haven't compared taxes and caxes 😔
the force sword burster push is still bugged isnt it?
wait what
i mean either that or they have a range far lower than ds4
😔
it's going to be the same since the game cheats in your favor when pushing bursters anyways
seems like the burster was slightly out of range and then the push-attack missed
seems like the game cheats with every weapon except force swords
but im pretty sure ds4 at the very least has far more range
nah cheats for illisi as well
a few times i don't get the hitmarker but i know i pushed
i think you're just getting tricked by the animation
the push comes out immediately after you do the RMB + LMB input
arco quick qn
if boss die, does everyone on the team instantly gets nade refill?
and does not linger at all
i don't think so but i haven't paid any attention to that
since i'm playing either nade regen vet or throwing knife zealot
i see
i used both my nade, then boss die then both was back
i don't think we took like 2 minutes to kill it either
Could just be mind tricks idk
like just looking at this video, the only thing that looks weird is when you're trying to push it through the railing, and even that just indicates that you're out of range of the normal push, and the cheating push doesn't seem to proc if it's not in its leaping phase
my guess is going to be that you're getting misled by the animation and thinking the push comes out later than it does
idk maybe it was the elevation?
maybe
the first frame where your stamina visibly drops (and thus your push comes out)
yeah i feel like it was the elevation then i would be pushing under it
Seeing arco post a regular looking in game screenshot is extremely jarring
dont worry its from my gameplay
Anyone have a build for power up penance? I don't use brain burst like at all
brainburst + power ups vent EP and all the toughness nodes you find
there plugin for ovenproof to save levels
im in malice (level 17) and the jager guy is a +54...
A bullet won't go through those railings either
Maybe he drunk
he told me to shut the fuck up when i said to stop wasting time at exfil
i doubt so :v
I'm 45 on helldivers but typically play on challenging when I'm not with the bois on hd2
idk people in malice like to camp the last wave on exit
i had one guy see the whole team in ship and just continue to swing
the valaika guy was a +30 too
Sometimes it be fun like that one map where they pour off the ledge
penances
Honestly yeah
wait there is penance for kill X trash?
i never noticed because alot of penances complete by themselves
and the ones that don't i don't want to do anyway. e.g. thje brainbuster penances
theres a couple for dregs/scabs/kill over all X
ah
am playing vet and this perk is dumb good, esp when you run VoC
dude i feel like ogryn now. Kinda feel like it should get nerfed
cosmetics
theres this as well
are you still levelling?
eh, don't touch staffs until you hit level 30
wait force staff? which one.
uh staffs very build dependent
build as in skill tree + the weapon itself
but if you enjoy it go ahead
ah surge
when i was levelling i forced msyelf to use voidstrike because i wanted to get used to it, felt like peashooter
because staffs depend alot on blessings
but again if you enjoy it
most of the builds on the website are trash the guide pinned here is far better
just play it
if you level 26, actually you can go on damnation
yeah but their build is defo not your build
a little yeah youtubers are usually better
but the guide is still very useful
even 4 levels is big
general guide.
yellow means majority agreed but debatable / depending on context
For assail, only the pen is needed.
dont worry about it by the time you're 30 youll get a better surge its a very easy to build staff
i think i started damn on 22
usually when i grind for t4, anecdotally its about 12 gold weapons
sometimes you get lucky though ofc
surge (blessing, not the staff) took me 10-12
dont bother buying or using resources until you're 30
you defo should take note of it yeah
like if you took one of the red cross out node
change it to something else
try to have the greens and oranges (that are circled) as well
but don't have a headache over it because you aren't 30 yet.
I would say the first node of assail should be green the second more personal
yeah i did mention dat
pygex's assail build
mb
for levelling
the order
since its a levellign build.
the reason he took one of the red nodes is because he needed to cross over from assail, if you were wondering.
this is 99% of what you need to know / able to do in DT @ornate hamlet
uh never tried the build, if you do have spare points then that makes sense as well since its a levelling build
btw you can shove dogs as well.
and once you get good enough you don't stick with team
not because of anything
just because its not fun

and plasteel
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvhWskjIwR0
i thought that was a bingo list
yeah, on this patch, you can stagger them before they net by shooting them, but imo not reliable so either side step or side dodge
in case you don't know, if you crouch after side/back dodge you do a slide as well
This is from one shot of this revolver and 15 stacks of DD. Is there anything I can do to reach the breakpoint for this guy? Will 60% rending make me reach it?
you should get the numeric UI to see the number of slide dodges
probably: try gaze.
is rending really that good for unyielding tho?
so sorryu
i meant
you can prob 1 tap him with gaze
not sure about unyielding
rending*
up to build
i dislike both 
for assail, based on what i see, between warp and EP, EP is more popular
usually its between EP and DD and DD has higher damage for assail
yep
for my voidstrike build
it hits threshold the warp can't given same points
iirc even with full warp build, it can't hit DD thresholds
? how come
uh i would recommend you not get DD for now
it takes some time to get use to
how many points do you have rn
27?
26?
vet is suprisingly resilient
yeah thats just nice
vet is more resillient than zealot i swear
but if you feel its not fun jus go back to whatever you were doing
this game isn't worth these kind of effort, thats why i never qp unless im levelling/trying for godroll and never do penances
to me at least.
i feel this game the fun is more important than the grind
other games it makes sense to reach high level fast in a non fun way bcause of end game content etc
this game isn't like that, theres not much end game content
yoru end game content is trying out builds and building for them
i actually stopped at 220+ hours and came back just to try a vet build
The endgame is going through twelve power swords just to get a lvl IV uncanny strike.
Nah man, I wish.
Keep getting deflector and executors which I got ages ago.
yeah but imo it would still get repetitive, others are fine with it
to me i hit like 90% of the skill ceiling, the last 10% is really positioning that comes off playing for long time. and maybe some clutch skills that i really don't bother about.
imo (ik i use this phrase alot lol)
the game needs skill expression, and to reward and encourage it.
They could have nerfed assail and kept the weaving tech but they chose to remove it.
Other stuff like rewarding slide quelling through skill nodes could be done.
But seems like the community wants more content in the form of weapons and maps, and stat balances
on psyker a5mael / a5histg, i can guarantee that i can for the top 5 stats get yellow/top. but even that gets boring, like im just on auto pilot.
Imo most people here reach that level quite fast
the game really isn't hard "in game"
mfs with 700 hours in here saying you can autopilot
i only have liek 200+
im genuinely not that great
sure i'm a bit out of touch but the game doesn't exactly demand much mechanical skill
Yeah you can really auto pilot
I can run auric maelstrom, but to say it's easy? Absolutely not

i feel build problem, show your build.
Playing in pubs is so eye opening
i too play in pubs
i don't always play in premades
and i actively go invisible to make sure that people don't ask to group up with me
I literally still see psykers exploding
if you can do all that, and you say a5mael is hard (other than when the director really go batshit)
i can say its build problem
one of my vet couldn't dodge dogs on a5mael, then he followed me to a5histg
+3
🐭
hi intensity shock troop gauntlet
basically the hardest non bullshit difficulty
maelstrom can be quite bullshit
i too explode though that's because i autopilot a lot on psyker
Maelstrom is just a gimmick most of the time
but usually even if they spanw like 2 bosses your team can handle it
it's not like you have to do any precision inputs or anything
Like oh boy 46 poxbursters
the game is mostly a knowledge check and once you're past that, it's pretty light on the mental load
Yeah
i don't have to do complex combos with most weapons or do well-timed dodges
idk i feel its because you don't play peril alot arco
i never explode on psyker after i got my build
maybe, but i explode a lot even when i played a lot on psyker
the hard mode yeah :v
i just get distracted a lot
I also blow up here and there
auric is still pretty difficult and requires you to know what to build and how to use it
Im just kinda doing w/e and miscount
the how to build isn't hard because you ahve this server imo
you guys are exploding at a5
ye
what
We also arent failing it
not me im pro elite gamer
yes
at a5, most of your teammates know how to deal with such stuff
being in this server makes a lot of things easier by default
unless its a big situation then you go down then jsut expect you won't get revived
yeah, since a good part of this game's difficulty is a knowledge check
but usually when my a5histg/a5mael games get too easy i do really stupid shit so i can feel some challenge
and the tutorial in this game being fucking horrible
THEY STILL DONT EXPLAIN AMMO CRATES
most players aren't on the discord or in reddit
the amount of effort you have to put in wildly depends on build i.e ogryns and voidstrike users are completely thoughtless
if you compute the difficulty of this game as just an average of this playerbase, then sure it's hard
since malice has the most players
I commonly see psykers using obscurus and vets running accatran in damnation
ngl i thin kim just lucky that i chose all the op builds.
but even on zealot im not dying, i just complain because i can't top chart more than 3 things
its true i just started using void today lost 90% of my braincells
but if a player is willing to learn and gets past the knowledge check, the game is not hard if you run the right builds
and it's not like you have to be as restrictive as you had to be in patch 12
a lot of weapons are very good nowadays and there are some fairly obvious "good talents" once you get past the knowledge hurdle
Psyker braincell usage post assail drop was titanic
the amount of psykers immediately spamming assail and immediately exploding
idk if you played any other competitive game
to reach average there is prob harder than to win a5histg reliably
i could never
using assail illisi void makes you have less iq than a potato
like to reach gn4 in csgo is prob harder than to win a5histg
games are not even close to comparison lmao
Tbf surge also isnt big brain
oddly specific
i meant void not surge see the void brain rot is real
its what im using rn
this is so tragic
no, no... let him cook
no, no... let him cook
oops
im just comparing them, to show how much effort is needed to learn this game.
yeah the descriptions in this game could use a lot of improvement
and the sheer lack of a glossary is saddening
yeah but tide games aren't competitive
Yeah the game doesnt explain stuff
you wouldn't seek them out for remotely similar reasons
A lot of it is just playing till you happen to understand things
sorta, DT isn't competitive in the same way as a lot of games though
im not saying y ou would, i just used competitive game because theres a high chance he would play a competitive game before in the context of "learning a game"
e.g., the game doesn't have an in-game explanation of rending/brittleness
the most fun i had as ogryn was buying a brunts shield going into a t5 game holding alt then leaving after i got 17 penances
comparing them is going to lead u to some really weird conclusions because tide games are a whole hell of a lot more casual
don't worry it's p much just them not investing resources into descriptions and stuff
they explain stuff in the patch notes and whatnot
I'd say helldivers 7-8 bots is still way easier than DT
In other PvE games its so easy to carry
helldivers is not super complex in part because some of the game systems for it are just not working rn
like armor
hd2 has terrible balance, i want my hd1 balance back
OH YES
does hd2 have hit tracking to the same extent as dt?
In DT if you don't have the right setup, director spawning a conga line of elites will end your carry attempt very easily
auto redeem
Tbf its not hard to bring a loadout that covers p much everything these days
im waiting for kf3
penance points just exist
there's no way to spend them and there's no benefit for having them besides being a bigger number
give reward straight away, which is cosmetic.
theyre just for dick measuring
you can't evne dick measure with it because it doesn't show in lobby
cosmetics are immediate
i don't know of a mod, there might be though.
well discord dick measuring
Most penances are literally useless though
penance points are the gold star sticker put on the mourningstar fridge
nice argument but unfortunately ⬆️ ➡️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️
since they don't give anything
i never tried going for any penances i have 1372 points rn
i got the push stuff off ledge penance as psyker just by playing
Go fuck yourself automaton ➡️➡️⬇️⬅️➡️⬇️
and i see people malding over it, very sad.
i got long bomb by throwing random grenades at the end of the ammo mission
I have like 5-600
I only play psyker
baseball man/
yeah i hate blunts too
im for sure never getting the bb penances tho, never liekd bb
i got it after switching to the purge bb build
I want to try brain burst but it's so ass
the madness that is introducing penances for completing specific mission types and then making raid/strike like half the fucking missions in the game
the green frame one in particular?

I LOVE PENANCES THAT DISTRUPT GAMEPLAY I LOVE THEM
i see alot of the regulars here complained about it before.
That one penance that is like "commit suicide"
i think the private lobby ones is really bullshit
Very funny fatshark
how the hell are you supposed to get warp battery
With difficulty
jsut go on sedition ez
take a revolvo
go back in time to when brainburst would give warp charges on any bb kill
snipe the first thing you see
some of the ways to get warp charges say "by chance"
Anything below malice is utterly demeaning
someone doesnt speed run assassinations for weeklies
my record is 8 minutes btw
why would you ever do that when you can just reroll book contracts
if i have to pay once to change a second time i just change it
you get mission completion no death and monstrosity all in one+plasteel
the only good part about assassinations is disposal unit (Imperium Mix)
i love assassinations cuz they're fast and linear missions
oh also assainations have a place where you can jump that bricks the mission i love that
other than hab dreyko ending, i have no idea of other map names
mao names are not memorable.
Chasm Logistratum?
i only remember mercantile
Throneside?
like remember as in i can map some place to the map name
jumping this sends you to a place you cant leave you have to altf4
all th map nmes are werid, but prob lore-friendly
I only know those three
but will you die?
no
so uh
It's fatsharks problem for naming all the maps "bumfuck district HL-17-99"
they can't progress?
yes
yeah.
i hope they patch it and i hope no one else discovers this.
wait lemme upload the clip
I had I mission on Chasm where someone got blown off the railing, but clipped inside the adjacent piping so we couldn't pick them up
Then the game spawned 20 pox hounds
absolute bruh moment
I mean I'd tiu think of it another way
Since he can't be killed
Yo uguys can prob do the bot rejoin thing
What if the bot just replaced him down in the hole?
No. He doesn't quit
yup
how does that work?
I don't know how to do it. But I seen like people quit, become bots that are alive, then join back as the alive bot
That exploit is the same reason why I hate peesword + peegun vets so much: at that point you might as well download an actual trainer and cheat
Maybe it's hypocritical for me to say this as my main is a voidstike psyker ( I would argue that I at least need to learn some positioning and it takes more skill. But countrr point is basically everything is power crept anyway)
@vivid stirrup @cedar grail @crisp nymph
L
Oh ya. I remember back when this map had a bugged respawn so you can't revive a teammate if he died before boss. Something like that
um actually if you had better positioning this never would have happened
I didn't realise what happened until you type this lol. I thought he was just showing flamer being goofy.
That's why you always shove on bark

What do we think of this?
Four 80s, I’ve never seen that before
Pick it up or leave it?
Its medicore.
Bad perks, one bad blessing, not an ideal dump stat.
Stat prio is damage>charge rate>quell speed>warp res> blast radius
peegun-pgun-plasmagun. a personal invention of mine
and peesword got adapted since the shortform for that is psword and it keeps the plasma gun's p
powersword
figured it would be powersword, but not plasma
plasma is basically spicy voidstrike
I just realised uncanny maintains its stack even when you miss
ig it's not just for getting better breakpoints against maulers and crushers who coulda guessed
toothpick mains keep winning
Any good examples of knife in here for a trauma build?
Agreed, damage isn't nearly as important as high finesse and penetration since those are multipliers. Normall difference between 70-80 damage is pretty low on most weapons
brain burst covers bosses so much better now since the animation buff
That's fair, I figure this build wont be great against bosses
Psykers in general tend to be weak vs bosses.
Unless I have my gunker or surge staff but yeah compared to other classes with grenades, plasma guns, one shot hammers, etc. that's true
No lacerate?
Its alright but in this case i will likely already be dealing with 37.5% crit chance.
I guess unless you're running disrupt destiny?
mercy killer is just weak spot dmg on enemies with bleed stacks though
Hitting body intentionaly to proc mercy killer is negative dps id assume
true
Main argument for lacerate would be to compliment damage on like mutants
It still would require 3 hits to deal any significant bleed damage.
I tried uncanny, lacerate for awhile but don’t really see the point in it for a trauma play-style. The targets that are armored don’t really need to be fought in melee.
Same with gunners really.
I don’t think the build either outputs enough soulblaze to heavily take use of uncanny to begin with even as blaze traumaz
The crux of trauma is to spam LMB and use the AOE blast when heavier enemies, hordes begin packing together.
It’s also a psyker so a playstyle of carefulness is usually the best way to survive even the hardest of scenarios in the game. That means to always have a route to retreat, don’t let hordes surround and deal with specials coming from back.
Theres thereby usually a tendency to stay abit behind in comparison to the rest of the team. Depending on spawn door locations this can mean that dealing with near all of the specials spawning will be done solely by the Psyker same with hordes. Especially if any naughty zealots are in the team.
Yeah I'd have to agree
Just had to deal with one such incorrigible priest.
Went down thrice because they wouldn't stay with the damn group.
So, I'm new to the game and I have an idea in my head for a psyker build I want to do
I was thinking of doing a sith type of build, using a force sword and psychic abilities (ideally smite) in equal measure
But idk if that sort of build is viable
Maybe using a force staff as my secondary
No question.
Smite generally doesn't do well when you're up close, though. The wind-up on its stun, or the charge to get an immediate stun, doesn't lend entirely well to front-line.
Awesome, I always tend to play gishes in games where such a choice is available
You can, of course, do a push-shove and then charge up Smite.
Consider the Surge staff if you want to go full Unlimited Power, for when a mere stun won't do the trick.
Any zealot will tell you that it's not impossible to do a full-melee build. But psykers don't have as much in the way of gap closing, so ranged options are more important.
Yeah, that's viable.
Certainly will take the Peril pressure off you to more freely do Smite, the errant force sword special, or if you choose it, Scrier's Gaze.
cool cool
I originally wanted to stick with just force weapons so I wouldn't have to worry about ammo
Depending on the difficulty, it can range from "doesn't usually come up" to "wait, that's a problem?"
Especially if you have a Survivalist Vet on the team.
Coming back after a while , any suggest of what I could use in a future? My build gotta be ass right now so I’d appreciate any suggestion for one.
Should i get the smite ability or the brain burst ability
Brain burst if you wanna focus on some heavy enemies and got a good staff for hordes. Smite for fun , idk. Try to use two builds to see which one you like more
Wow this shits dead
The only thing that smite seemed to be good for was stunning hordes
Are the knives good?
Personally , I don’t like em. A zealot may like them tho hahaha.
True , don’t know if there’s a good build for them but it should be decent tho
Smite would be good but it builds up so much peril and it doesn't last too long
Wasn’t there a build where it was really easy to just use them and then down the peril and keep it coming?
Let me see if I still have my build with smite , can be wrong
Usually , yes.
If you supplement with assail, Deimos is a decent horde clearer
I.e. I will only run deimos/surgestaff while having assail
Surge staff with brain burst is not good?
too much single target?
Surge staff kinetic flayer does smiting from emperor wrath
I love kinetic flayer make like smiting from god
What should I use with surge staff
Or brain burst
What should i use with brain burst
Thanks
which staff has the rending blessing that adds birttleness
trauma
then id go the blaze blessing right?
does baze spirit and rending shockwave a good combination? 🤔 considering the blaze stacks are relaint on crits and does rending shockwave go to 4?
nah you need crit blessing with blaze I think
with brittleness you want warp flurry
and yeah rending goes to t4
But blaze goes only to t3
is there a way to see how many stacks of soulbaze im throwing n a boss?
With a mod yes
soulblaze stack caps confuse me
for blaze trauma I think you want smth like this
if u had to guestimate
how many seconds at 90 percent peril would it take to get max stacks on a boss
using right click
I wouldn't really count on soulblaze stacks for boss DMG
if i could throw a few on them then use venting shriek at max periul
it is super worth it
if i swap to melee after using shriekl
im trying to figure out the average timei should spend using my staff to throw stakc son the boss
You can probs jsut test on reaper in psykanium if you aren't running mods for that
true
I notice zero difference in clear between an illisi with slaught+executor and one with only executor
idk why people are saying its "essential"
hehe i love you arco <3
guess amount spent at brunts
Seeing you post this.... 500k-1mil
I got mine at 300k tho
But I go with my first answer
108k
Noice
If you look at charge rate the difference is minimal absolute value wise but u will still go with the first staff
78 damage is enough to hit BP tho
But I'm sure you know anyway
getting a good deimos base took me 3 weeks which turned into this
Just wanted to type something
Go flurry nexus for first one. Become mini gun psyker
I think flak maniac better for rager
You should try nexus flurry trust
Shoot vewi fwast
ye i wanted either maniac or carap or unyielding
Cannot one tap crusher anymore but i feel it feels much better
deimos doesn't really care about crusher much anyways since it staggers them so easily imo
deimos is a funny weapon
it sure is
but it is not illisi (my beloved)
Quick hi int dogs mission in the morning but it turns to a 37 mins slug fest 
wow imagine carrying a medipack for 79 minutes 
That stat has always been bugged for my scoreboard.
i can only assume that the middle two were backfills
3 people quit after dying aye.
good
theyre usually bad
i had t5a where my entire team got killed replaced with bots then i got a far better team afterwards
id like to think thats matchmaking saying "sorry G" we fucked up
From the start there was another psyker with voidstrike like me. He seemed really confident and ran ahead. Then died and left. 
His confidence didn't match his skills.
can anyone share gun psyker build for me? or give me darktide website build
My build at the start. Use any gun you want of course.

assail xd
blazing spirit only goes up to 3 on trauma staff right?
it only exists on 3
keep flak right? ez fire stick?
Me using any build with assail. That thing with ep is still cracked. Bit sad from melee switch nerf but it'd still kill.
lmao the newtype flash sfx is great
amazing
that can pretty much be any staff you want it to be
put surge carap and its a great void staff
The announcement? I removed it now that spider sense is out.
Yeah
ty mate
@vestal fulcrum i have to know, was that some funky helbore only tech?
What do you have in mind?
What tech
the last game
Wait, we played together?
just now
Yes
i think it might have been my fault somehow
the forbidden zealot crash tech
freshly discovered
i was trying to chase grinch with a stim so i charged while aiming it
and he said he also disconnected

i guess there really was something in those moebian stims
I don't even get to see the scoreboard 
anyway i can only assume that helbore shanking is actually legitimate
i looked at it for a bit as we were finishing
you had like 160k melee 200k ranged
yes very smooth
turns out game is easy if people do damage
anyway i think i will continue not playing zealot
I was also playing sub-optimally by trying to get as much scab ranged kills as possible 
(Melk's contract)
epic
Me I don't do damage.
that is most unfortunate, sibling
I'm in a game with 3 psykers 3 surge staves pog
Surge king.
hardron pls... 
wym its "out"
It came out?
you mean the mod, spidey sense?
Yes.
lies. you were saving them for lunch

so what's it like to be selfish in war
I wish I can force bloom and lens flare on other players.
So they are also blinded like me.
I wish you stub your toe just for joking about this
its garbage btw
That poor thing
hey at least it’s a funny blaze sword
The funny meme blaze sword
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9b79f699-4ace-4a1f-b48a-5d272d624ad4/swordker anyone see a way to get higher % boosts on this?
I want to stack the number as high as we can with the modern skill tree
maybe drop mind in motion for perfect timing?
more stacks = more better
even tho it doesnt apply to swords
true but mind in motion keeps the tempo up so you can restack
also it just
just feels good
Is there a waay to boost my damage outout for the lightning staff, It takes me 4-5 pulls with a full charge for most elites , i'd like to try and cut that in half atleast
Uh. Post build and your staff
do i just send in the pictures or is there a special kind of way
click my link
that site is good for making a mock up of your build for others to look at
What's the damage stat on your staff? That seems outlandishly low
Surge staff is all about killing specials and elites fast
