Still dunno
You can count it in the psykanium by yourself
So very short, you can lift your finger for maybe .3 seconds
Yeap
I had fun with prenerf SAP psyker
Guess I know what second blessing I need now
When pinning was broken
Cavalcade is really bad for SAP
It has one of the worst finesse values
It might be fun with EE memes though
"we have ghost at home"
who tf runs ghost when empathic evasion exists
No it's budget ghost
Basically just doing Gun Psyker with Assail, a knife, and the SAP. I shoot the SAP, I go fast and get roughness. And go nuts with everything else
maybe i ll just spoiled by surge staff
Not 100% sure what you guys are talking about, EP Assail is absolutely the meta for Gunker

Or just spam assail
And don't use SAP

Feels like it will end up like that
So to force yourself to use SAP run like smite or BR
If the whole point is to use the SAP
Maybe I just need to go back to the revolver for something with single target damage
Oh you were talking about voidstaff, yeah DD is ass on Voidstrike because it interfers with voidstrike searching for bowling alleys.
Voidstrike is strong enough to work with no tree, so it ultimately doesn't matter, but it creates bad habits.
exactly lol that was my pioint
i like that build because i feel like i am juggling weapons because I can actually use assail when peril is high
the playstyle is extremely satidfying due to how many buttons you are pressing
Yea that's assail in general, it's fun to use
It's like agile engagement with vet
knife zealot loads a quarter way into the mission i was just in, within a minute, sprints ahead of us a good ways, dodges off a ledge, then leaves the mission lol
Gaming
5 rejects in total???
peak
Noob
This happened to me once too
EP assail go brrrrrrrrr
#psyker-class message

all my assailing is dd powered :/
i played a game with it today in scab melee maelstrom
its funny af yes but also kinda inconsistant
Melee maelstrom without blaze trauma 
Honestly, with the whole thing with Wolfer and all that, I don’t think we’ll be fighting any other factions in the game
:((
I wanna fight Khorne enemies
We got berserkers tho
Still want Slaanesh cult in the upper levels of spires.
Melee Maelstrom without OnlySmites 
Alr tertium is fucked, but not that fucked
We’re probably more likely to have genestealers lmao
Considering nothing has really been done story wise with Nurgle content... I would not hoe for gene stealer content
Considering nothing has really been done story wise
True
True
Genestealers are capable to handle spacemarines. What can a team of regular suicidal rejects do?
Kill a daemonhost
Plasma
Weak one.
Nurgle Daemons
You can't kill what you can't hit reliably. Genestealers are fast as fuck.
My psyker is level beta+. I kill 1000+ heretics per mission. 
You don't really have to aim with a plasma tbh
Also weaker ones. Nurgle daemon with the capital D would kill rejects simply by being in close proximity.
We might as well be fighting some weak ass genestealers too then
Anyway, I want some of my missions take place in rich palaces of hive nobility and whole massacre of heretics be mixed with BDSM orgy. The usual Slaanesh business.
Ezzzzzz
Speed doesn't matter when you have tide game chokepoints 
Fr
None, it was supposed to be a variation of the "remember, switching to your sidearm is faster than reloading". But it didn't land
basic shooter tips go
A sidearm generally accomplishes the same thing in the modern gun sense, but in this game you whip out a magic space sword 
They do very different things
Remember in a pinch you have the staff special
🗿
that's my legitimate response to that
They have SO MANY OPTIONS FOR COOL SHIT
"nah you poke them with the blunt staff"
Staff poke melee should have a mini warp blast thats a small oae push
true bolt of greased lightning experience
Will be great if we can ever switch gear across characters and classes
at least it's better than it used to be
You had individual blessings, dockets, plasteel, diamantine lmao
i would like shared gear to be actually shared
i would like multiple of the same class to draw from the exact same gear pool
That would be nice, though will there be a need to have multiple of the same class anymore after the next patch, where we can change the personality
I need this
shared curios please
i should hoard crafting materials for power/force greatswords 
and new future staves
I already have almost 40k hoarded
Which I will inevitably spend within one day, probably

Melk? Same, mostly because he doesn't sell the blessings I want 
Or because I don't buy what I should be buying
what're you looking for?
T4 nexus for my surge for one, but it's not great so I might as well craft a better staff and hope to get it there
Also T4 rending shockwave for trauma
Blaze Away for rumbler 
oh, yeah all of that sounds fine
That's a problem, because I just scan for T4 blessings, so possible that I missed it 
i wonder what they would make
i could also throw materials at hadron to maybe give me a better voidstrike but eh
Fireball staff but blue
See also Blazing Spirit on the Trauma only being available at rank 3
Ik KD work on revive but does it work on objectives as well
No, because you aren't blocking while doing objectives
Thankfully I knew that before crafting my blaze trauma 
Do it in heresy or malice 
Sadge
It's pretty common knowledge you're not blocking when scanning/doing the hack no?
You'd think so
I know I get hit out of it. It's just my mind thinking KD = inf block on interact
is crusher good? 😄
yes it is
yup great weapon zealot channel has a full guide on that weapon
the issue is if 3 people are downed the first person you save is gonna save the last
or usually 2 people at least never die and when they do its over
Sometimes you get lucky and the first person you save focuses on keeping enemies away
Now I have to check if I completed that penance 
i think it would be easier in a private game 😭
Its so situational, and any game where you have a chance to complete it isnt a good game
i almost had it on another game but the 3rd person left
ngl idk how come the cosmetics are so expensive
people memed on how ordo dockets were useless before brunts existed
They’re kinda cheap compared to other games
now i'm always poor
Which cosmetics are we talking about?
I guess that’s the better ?
i think the paid cosmetics are at a pretty normal price
maybe i'm too used to overpriced skins
I really like that they don’t shove it down our throats too, like I have to out of my way to see the vendor and options
Same
I’m used to gambling way more $$ to not get what I want
It’s been years now but I still regret
darktide launcher 👀
destiny 1 taken armor for me 
or cod skins
fucken gacha games
really?
i tot liek overwatch cheaper, but ican't rmb now
but at least overwatch one look nice i feel
i didnt care much for overwatch
destiny 2 was nice but so expensive
also pvp is really awful there
Oh hi I'm a destiny beta player
Pvp is in fact really awful and frustrating to get into yes. It's why I appreciate games like darktide. Absolutely zero pvp bull crap.
Just me, my beloved, and my funny rocks or zapstaff
i liked the game but the battle pass+dlc+2 million other bits of content is overall like what? 200? 300?
gameplay was nice the skills classes etc
New expansions cost 50 bucks, then it's another 50 if you want the season pass and dungeon pass with a nice lil bow on top.
It's really only worth it if you plan to do that content. Otherwise nah
This season I wouldn't blame you for skipping the content, this whole year has just been kinda there. Two of the 4 seasons are mid at best, only good content are the new dungeons but even then one of them is now just kinda ignored
btw, is Inner Tranquility better for a Surge Staff (the lightning one, in case you thought of Surge-blessing Void Staff first) build compared to Essence Harvest?
I would say so, I never used Essence Harvest and I don't run into toughness problems, the crits and quelling is usually enough
Wut inner tran and essence harvest?
First warp charge upgrades, less peril vs. toughneess gain
ok, but what about weapon perks for Surge? I currently have +25% Carapace & +20% Unyielding dmg, but I am wondering if I should swap either for +25% Maniac dmg...
Run whatever you want. I would recommend getting flak on it at least to 1 shot shotgunner.
hmmm ok, but which perk to swap...?
I'd swap carapace away tbh.
There's only crusher as carapace for surge, and they get stunned by surge anyway.
i'm a fan of Crit chance + flak
since it's a staff that has a huge base amount of crit
and most of its damage comes from crits
for surge flak is a must for the second perk elite/maniac/crit chance all good options
im a flak elite enjoyer
knife zealot running stealthj
Me on my meme unyielding crit chance surge staff. 
oh no
heresy
ok he changed to caxe chastise
ur too shiny for stealth
dat not me
iwear this\
2shiny
Hoping the new armor sets look great 
lol once again I misclicked the channel. thanks tho 
no worries
its a pretty sweet melee weapon
I do this too
Love the consistent boss damage

It's only when I play assail surge. When I play regular illisi surge smite with warp charges I use flak maniac.
Tbh normal surge build is better than assail surge.
"no"
leaves game
Assail does kinda take up the role that surge staff has.
Surge is a fantastic elite deleter, and assail is the same but also has the ability to shred crowds
Surge is just WAY faster at the cost of crowd control.
Dunno who that agent chaos guy is must be really bad psyker.
i heard he only plays sedation
I can confirm. 
perfectly valid im partial to the 30k docket set myself
Looks like a hobo
hell yeah
Heard it's some super noob guy.
Cover your face if you're going for redemptionist
I do not agree with the statement since assail struggles against armor
I definitely run assail with surge though, for horde purposes of course
That AgentChaos guy is a noob at showing his build at the start of the game, goes through it in like 5 seconds, can barely pause and take a look 
so tru so tru
you gotta download the video and slice out the single frame its in
It's unimportant.
Based on the few sentences I read here about it that seems to be fine as is
answer: very dumpy
There is one more sentence for the collection
Yeah only epicentre is important and the scaling is wack.
The actual damage from the outer radius is poop.
Not like a certain big aoe damage staff.
(But it's bad especially the blaze kind)
Pls never use that unforsaken staff.
Please buff
hello hello good void alert
Maybe crafting update next year will allow one to craft red weapon. 
100% all stats blaze trauma btw.
Are we really talking about next year that casually already? 
Congrats
third blessing pls brittlenes+soulblaze staff
Oh, that would be perfect
bruh
that +5 crit makes a big difference
🤔 tho i still have a feeling crit damage would work on void
You looked at it without classes, didn't you?

Obviously no, that shit burns your eye fast
Seeing some funny image is not worth
okay maybe zealot has some juice
zealot is crazy fun esp if you get good with a hammer or crusher
tbh i mostly started playing zealot because i got so sick of pox bursters killing me on psyker and vet
If you play enough games with hammer or crusher in a row you can even get a headache 


crusher is great but i currently dont wanna put in the brain power to learn it
I do think my pale ass got a bit of sunburn waiting for it to start though, fuck me.
hell yeah get that vit D
Imagine being white.
I get enough D

(I take vitamin D supplements everyday)
ur asian ur ass burns just as easily
asses are rather flammable
Actually tru I am too tanned and I want to be white. 
I typed something up about how tanning makes me look rich and you poor, but decided not to.
But since you went there

In asian culture we want to be white, not tanned.
Cos tanned = working outside = poor.
i thought being from the middle east would give me immunity to the sun but i went on holiday to cyprus once
and it was hell
Where as in U.S tanned means vacation
like actual hell
Yeah white people like tan/fake tan.
I'm glad most of that shit died off
But the fake tan shit doesn't look great.
i got 2nd degree burns from walking outside for an hour
Learn it? Spam light attacks in horde, spam push attacks against ragers and bulwarks, spam strikedown against crusher. Easy 
Nowadays, you get made fun of for fake tans and no one really goes for real ones that often anymore
There's a tanning salon near my house and so many white ladies go there it's unreal.
Especially sort of older women.
Same, it's all middle-aged and older though.
35+.
Probably look that old because of all the tanning

my first and last game with it
Me I need the Michael Jackson treatment. Turn me white daddy.
actually also true sun does age your skin
so your choices are get skin cancer from the sun or skin cancer from the chemicals in the sunblock
who knows some of them might
SPF50+ bruh
You're a euro, your sunscreen is fine
U.S sunscreen....
Read that bottle carefully lmao
Everything gives cancer nowadays
even cancer
Vegan not tested on animal. I am the test subject 
Avoid the midday sun 11am-3pm. Bruh what good is this shite
Alcohol denat like all alcohols used anywhere on or in the body can cause cancer 
no sunblock in my burgers pls
I'm mostly joking(mostly)
Have to write that because of liability probably 
Just like "this coffee is hot"
To be clear, "avoid the midday sun 11am - 3pm" doesn't block liability or anything.
In the UK we don't use umbrella to block the sun. Not like in asia.
So it's super weird to do it. 
I can do it when I visit vietnam.
Breh it's the UK, some bloke with an umbrella isn't even going to register as weird


UK bad I wish I was dutch or swiss.
How about me, who told everyone I was Russian because it's easier to say that than explaining the like 4 different ethinicities inside of me
Boy did that backfire
Why do you even need sunscreen in the UK, I thought you never have any sun anyway 
🔥
Ah yes, the Texan heat
I live north, nice and cold
I just want to live there to eat food.
Although with global warming we went from snow for 4 months to snow for like 2 weeks
kinda wild
Doesn't like the sun, wants to move to Texas. Makes sense 
The snowplow guy I pay for must love his job, he only shows up like 2-3 times last few winters.
Mountains? To be even closer to the sun 
why
dutch is like diet german and swiss is the worst kind of german

Netherlands seem to have really good biking/public transport infratructure. I would like to live there and not have to use car too much.
Switzerland is just a beautiful country.
(And super rich)
I've been to amsterdam.
Didn't need to speak dutch.


Place I live just recently legalized stuff.
I can't wait for the tax money to fix the roads
Surely
Yeah it's stupid UK is so slow to legalise it.
netherlands is amazing
its the one place i actually felt was like europe europe
UK doesn't have the same cartel problem US has
We have the pressure of the criminals are gonna profit anyways
germany hungary poland croatia austria are dirty when compared to the netherlands
visit scotland its the only place in western europe that has western europes in it :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
I looooved Scotland, I'd go back in a heartbeat
you can actually go out on saturday nightlife without fear of getting stabbed in edinburgh
Oh no, I'm now reading everything in a scottish accent 
Pic I took on holy island.
Beautiful
Purple clouds are always so trippy
That looks photoshopped cause of it.
Was it a big storm?
It was about to rain aye. You know north england/scotland. I went there in summer last year for a week and we had rain for 5 out of 7 days.

👁️
I didn't want to craft a flame illisi 
epic
you have slaught id say replace blaze with something and put flak instead of crit
flame illisi is bad pls nerf
unironically tho
Thank you! We went on saint cuthbert hike so was just at the border of scotland and england but scottish people were so nice.
Or you could brick it yourself and change slaughterer for bloodthirsty
change maniac to crit damage
Is it better than my current one? 
Then I will replace it and craft another slaughterer one
😨
my man i have had zero illisi with slaughter and zero deimos with executor
slaught 3 is good enough
So conflicted 
Will turn it into a normal illisi though, I don't want clad to have an aneurysm
That's really unlucky
i was playing godly too
i stopped trying for it tbh
egads
however, any headsplosion kill would give a warp charge
so you just had to cast headsplosion at least every 20s or so
i have one with slaugthere/shred and slaughterer/uncanny and i mostly play uncanny
uncanny slaughterer flak maniac illisi my beloved
there has to be a restriction to the toughness from crit talent
i mean one illisi can crit like 4 times with one hit
never got 20% tougness with one hit and when playing gunker i almost gain no toughness at all using ciag
there has to be a restriction like 1x per second or so
more than that it can greatly benefit from soulstealer
special h1 into the horde and reap the benefits
im trying to get a good devils claw but hadron bricking everything i bring her
see rager blob -> spam special button like there's no tomorrow -> dead rager blob
i love ragers they're peak gameplay
Yeah, feels so much better in hordes than the flame illisi 
Are people who got it after patch not cool?

step up your game and get it now

youll at least be cooler than the people who get it after this upcoming update
Sorry, I have more bad news.
People who get it during the penance patch are cooler than people who got it between patch 13-17
I got it, shock troop gauntlet with surge 
very based
however i refuse to relent to bad design and i will not stop using creeping flames as damage

I actually think it's kind of cool they didn't change the penance at all even though it's way harder to get it.
Hardest one to get for me I think, together with shocking stuff, which I ended up doing in a private game 
whats shocking stuff?
Zealot, kill 40 stunned enemies in 10 seconds
I feel like saying shocking stuff in psyker chat was pretty misleading

Also isn't shocking stuff really easy, just stun and flame
Team tends to pitch in
tbh this is bad, but i got stuck in a pubg loop where i couldnt stop rolling crates trying to get specific items, it was really easy to waste 20 bucks on a bunch of stuff you already have lol
click play, the game will start up - the launcher is going to show ANYTHING new going on in the game, cosmetics being the newest.
theres no tab in my inventory basically lol
Problem is getting 40 enemies without the team killing them
if i open my helldiver menu im greeted with paid options out the gate, even if cheap or earnable, its way more in the face than darktide tho
Primary fire hordes is pretty lit.
bap bap bap bap
is the buff to smite from empowered psionics that good?
I'm going to say no, because you shouldn't smite much and not for damage
I mean yeah, Darktide benefits from hiding the fact that literally all the worthwhile armor is paid.
Also earnable is an understatement, I'm legitmately concerned Helldivers 2 isn't making enough money for the long-term.
thx
i will be running warp batery from now on
Shouldn't smite for damage

Look at these crits and weakspots
Jokes aside yeah please don't smite for damage

0 and 0? I don't know how to read that mod 
Yep, no weakspots no crits

It's more of a proof that try harding with the scoreboard will get you first place no matter what you use so it isn't a good measure of anything.
That's good, not missing out on console then 
By people not being toxic and saying gg 
Now there's something the scoreboard is good for.
Toxicity and last place on the scoreboard have a high correlation

nuh uhhh
i would say "not exactly"
playing zealot i get absolutely nothing done
zealot is stoopid because it has worse melee than psyker and vet
I've just never enjoyed zealot personally
i "enjoyed" it because it was melee
until i realized that thammer is a single target weapon for some fucking reason
I've tried all the builds at this point, and like yeah I still get 1st because super-leet-gamer-who-definitely-isnt-just-competeing-with-no-one.
But it just feels so bad to use
Stealth is fun but it's so easy to BM your team if you aren't on top of it.
They nerfed the book

stealth makes me miss the attack speed from the charge
Trick with Zealot is that you can absolutely spam that ult
And you have good flexibility
We know, it's memey but I still don't find the class that compelling.
The world could be exterminatused and the last thing left alive would be the karkin zealot
It's just so aggressively robust
Zealot is often my favourite class
Tbh I'm lucky, all 4 end up being my favourites on different days
You have Ironhelm now
it has great cleave on trash mobs tho
I like activating and cleaving hordes
And I do understand the feeling of not getting anything done
But that's because I was using knives
They are not for me
But then the Evis15 found me
I feel unstoppable
And now I'm struggling to get a good ranged weapon with it
I just need to stay away from knives
Revolver with evis
i hate that the most optimized way to play the game is revolver for ragers and crushers+knife/dclaw
which dclaw
since i wanna try it
i only really tried dclaw 4 it was good
but since i dont have a revolver i had crusher problems
5 bullets not enough
Special deleter, good enough for that
I have an Eviscerator and a dash
5 bullets not enough
I usually take Vraks 7
Or Lawbringer
Load special, shoot at enemy direction
Close the gap
Repeat
evis+flamer is objectively the best way to play zealot
Holy shit it’s robocop
hsword/dclaw bolter
i prefer 40k judge dredd, especially since i picked judge personality
What infantry lasgun would y’all use on a gunker build :3
laspistol > lasgun
Later: “well I had to amputate my finger as I mashed the bones to glue but at least I got to play hsword for five minutes”
I said which lasgun not “laspistol better!1!1!!2!”
dress up as executioner while playing hsword so you can visually communicate your fingers' death to your teammates
i do heavies most of the time
i am not a fan of mashing m1
it strains the finger ye
reject gameplay
embrace the zealot m1 script grindfest
probably mgiv since you'll be buffing its damage output with gunker
highest rof, low recoil, reasonably accurate
And if it has tier 4 infern?
i think you want headhunter and deadly accurate
ghost is also a viable pick, especially on psyker
I’m going to be unconventional and use infernus on a lasgun anyways
at least use it with scryer + dd
i do gunker laspistol with warp charges, it's fun
I do
it's og build and it's still good!
Uhhh should I put maniac damage on a lasgun or-
I’m relying more on infernus to deal with tanky carapace enemies
And my duelist-
Infernus does 0 damage to carapace enemies
if you're bringing a dueling sword, just use that to deal with carapace
You can test in the meat grinder and see
by the by, doesn't concentration stim reduce peril generation?
i haven't seen that listed anywhere but my experience using it in-game seems to bear that out
The red one does
Whatever that's called
I have an Eviscerator, I don't need a flamer
See the problem?
I’m pretty sure it did damage actually… I might be wrong
yeah, but i feel like concentration stim also does; generally seems like i can cast more with surge before hitting critical peril, so i like to pick them up on pysker more than other classes
Maybe because you can vent more, due to lower ability cooldown
Or you are more likely to use it with a lot of enemies around and then hit a lot with vent for the lower peril
shouldnt the blue ones be the ones that help channel time?
Well dots pretty much do no dmg to carapace type
The metric shitload of warp fire from 4 purgatos staff psykers:
🤔
Does every psyker have their own soulblaze cap or is it a total that everyone shares?
i do remember it shared
What actually is the soulblaze cap (I am stoopid)
31-ish?
Depends on the source, too
so shared among psykers
is it better to build into fire or brittle on trauma staves?
Depends on what you want to do, fire is better against hordes, brittle is better against armor
Both are perfectly viable
yeah im going fire since that seems to be more universal
too bad I can't roll a blasted trauma staff with blazing spirit!
this is the one i got from a random reward. i don't wanna run anti-armor, i want to burn everything
blazing rending trauma with true aim when?
That's a decent rending trauma though if you change surge to flurry and crit damage to flak
the game feels so much smoother on heresy 😭
my semi bricked trash gear finally meets breakpoints
What are you doing in heresy? 
dimantine on chars i dont enjoy playing
but really why cant i have damnation amounts of enemies with heresy hp 😭
Play Auric heresy?
Checking if the rumors are true
i do but idk i want custom games
What are the rumors? 
We are not supposed to talk about that, right?
no not the hiv city 
Players are one of a kind there
auric heresy is pretty chill tho now its harder to find games than before
i tried a keystone since ive been using bb more. this build should be illegal lol
I played heresy for some penances and the lack of enemies was very unsettling
i feel the same about auric maelstroms
ur the hit and run guy on reddit arent you
the only place thick enough is the final event of hab dreyko, but its hab dreyko
Hab is a nightmare if thee team is not on the same page 
i like running
Very nice weapon names
i actually had a great hab dreyko experience when the spawns were fucked last month
we had the whole team at the respawn location, 2 ppl on each entry way, and the spawns all turned on at once, it looked like the posters!!
we were holding down so many enemies, i need to upload more
the last time i played hab on psyker i had to cast purge 24/7 for 5 minutes in the same spot
not moving
sounds about right XD
the second i switched to melee for a mutie i went down

shit i may have went overboard with trying for that surge, theres three more pages of run n gun lol
Lesson learned, never switch to melee as psyker, we don't have melee talents, it's not meant to be
actually i think i found the trick
the repair mission is fun the one with the 5 ammo crates is fun
heavy at the same time as a dodge, repeat
Which one is the repair mission?
super team focused missions can work well but hab is awful
CRYONIC ROD
Ah
like right in sync, like thwack and a slide at the same time, over and over, good for fast horde clear. with knife its 4-5 enemies per hit
DONT MAKE ME DO IT CLAD
i did it oh nooo
You wanna inspect eachother's?
Kinda unhinged 
hell yeah
meow
Did anyone notice that a second wave spawns when the third ammo is delivered?

yes
still love those pics
Or am I tripping
i keep saying put them in at the same time but no one listens
Why are you naked?
wait what do u mean
im skudie
That gives more questions than answers 
When objective goes from 2/5 to 3/5, more enemies show up
All my characters have been naked since summer, just waiting for the sun
Or so I noticed

i have to see the room, im so bad at remembering which are which
i want a crazy mission to pop up
pop
burr
Ammo on the left and right, deliver up a ramp
ohhhh
yeyeyey
maybe optimizing is putting all the rods up, and then loading them in
But try having people listen to that
i just type tips sometimes, ppl pick it up
training a lot of newer psykers to get into primary fire XD
the unused bitchslap to heretics
Do you have a random tip for me?
you got generalist talents, excellent stam regen and a good choice of melee weapons...
Sliding makes you much less likely to be hit by bullets
I was being sarcastic 

lmfao
Knew that, do you have another? 
Does being naked make me stronger?
standard hi intensity run, save for one moment
we had a moment where a mutant got ahold of one of our psykers
beat them up, then tossed them into a burster i knocked back.


Always remember you pick where and when to fight. That's how you stay in control. Disengaging seems impossible sometimes, but going full defense, and kiting the fuck out will save a game.
RIGHT after we pulled them up at a respawn point mind you
they ragequit and i wouldn't even blame them
lol

Had a vet rage quit earlier, went down 4 times in 5 minutes to gunners 
Esp with kinetic deflection, holding block and getting to the outer edge of the horde is a better place to engage with psyker
our problems are getting hit in the back by random trash
Yeah, two poxwalkers hit us and we are half dead 
ikno bruh i swear to got the game legit spawns more trash behind me as psyker or vet
You can split the seas with the force sword tap
force swords as balanced as ever
Aka stagger everything around and open a slight path ahead of you
Melee weapon 
also maybe a blessing to make force push work on multiple targets? hello fatshark please?
ok ima take off my clothes now for the next hour on my psyker maybe my pale skin will stun some enemies
Can see that being a niche or recommended to players that aren't sure of their survival skills
better than superiority or fuckin exorcist
"rEpeAted wEAk SpOT"
Yeahh ok like im gonna hit a crusher 4 times in a row to quell 10%
lol cant beat skeletor humor

🫣
i wish superiority was on ds
I have a clip where I do just this. BoG spawns in a tight corridor where it’s already thick with crushers, bulwarks and horde.
Two players die kinda quick and a vet almost makes it out with me. I proceed to spend the next 3-4 minutes back tracking and looping around to get the revives while hitting barrels to thin them out along the way.
Sometimes the director goes nuts because all those heretics caught us off guard.
it is indeed infuriating, and the occasional 3m aoe crusher overhead
Silent mauler/crushers use to tilt me.
It’s like they trained under the legendary Italian ninja, Tony Soprano.
i have silent trappers and bursters
maulers and crushers not so much. you spot them quite easily... and i also spam ping whem i enter a room to find the far away elites
Yes. Don't play blaze trauma.
Don't play purgatus, worst staff

No, look at how small the range of blaze trauma is.
It's such a shit weapon, blaze trauma needs a huge buff

I know that's bait but the circle is just the epicenter no?
based, i only use recon las guns and smite monsters 🗿
0 crits 0 weakspots meta

If your scoreboard has crits or weakspots on it you aren't playing psyker right
Real 👏🏿 psykers 👏🏿 only 👏🏿 stab 👏🏿 or 👏🏿 shoot 👏🏿 feet
Feet
👃🏿
🦶🏿
Actually this, though
as in the new system wehre u buy them outright, plus nwo you get get them for free i think
knife
When you spend forever killing a large group of enemies and another psyker just turns, yells at them, and goes back to whatever they were doing.
Wait. Purgatus not good?
no
For all intents and purposes, purge got left behind by patch 13.
Psyker is strong enough that you can use whatever you want, but it's very clearly the worst staff.
I never have any problems with purgatus tbh
I was about to say, you can still run damnation with it and be perfectly fine
The game isnt hard enough for there to really be any "bad" weapons
You can literally run a smite-only build and get first place in damage
The uncanny trick helps it a lot too
I run auric with it 😄
Purgatus is one of those things to pick after looking at the lobby though
Sometimes you see your team really doesn't need it
The famous revolver lobby
tac axes?
taxes aren´t bad as much as they are just outshone by alternatives
i sometimes run one with my smokenade batvet build for shits and giggles and have 0 regrets about them 🙂
i hate taxes
give me my money back
Plenty of people love em and swear by em.
If we are really looking for a bad weapon, probably Paul.
Paul is the worst.
damnit paul
Krourk stubber (by comparison to what else exists) too
Tbh on the same note imo the Bull Butcher is shit now, idk when I would ever rather have it over krourk mark 4
Maybe if I had a randomised talent tree where I don't take any heavy melee talents, and on a special mission type only featuring unarmoured enemies
Blaze trauma bottom tier for sure. You could never get more warp fire than purg no no never ever.
I use it on certain glugger builds where I minmax points by taking 0 heavy attack talents
Convenience. You don’t really have to think very hard to use it effectively 
I mean it's good to have weapons that can just be light spammed tbh
My girlfriend uses it because she worries about doing a combo under pressure
Nor do you really need a giga brain to use Mk4 to its fullest extent, but BB3 just has an endless chain of light attacks that typically have great cleave damage
I've nudged her towards the XIX shovel now so she'll at least have an option for Crushers :)
She's getting pretty good now, maybe will be starting hi5 soon
Shovel one shotting crushers always makes me giddy cant even lie
Her build 3-shots them but better than a BB
My mark 5 skullbreaker 1shots though :D think my veteran's shovel can too iirc
Shrieking at 0 peril to make sure you get the soul blaze ownership 
Its not even about pressure, just need to get her get used to the constant enemy spam that auric has
I mean psychological pressure lol
The problem with that is that FS typically kills anything it touches relatively quickly, so relying on SB to do anything for you is typically a bad idea
And it just fares better to improve the raw killing capabilities of the weapon
That FS is a nice base. You could reroll the horde perk into something else, and Blazing Spirit into say, Slaughterer or whatever else you prefer
Psyker just doesn’t have enough supporting tools to make a melee-based SB-application build work
It's a bit of a meme, but it's fun, straight up damage illisi is a lot better
does Executor trigger on cleave weakspot hits?
not sure what they mean with "repeated"
As long as you hit at least one weak spot in a cleaving attack, yeah
Repeated = if you don’t hit any WS with a cleaving attack, all stacks of the buff drop
You still drop it on missed attack, but you won't drop it on dot anymore wow amazing
oh ok
It used to also drop on misses, but that has been patched out some time ago (maybe to make it a little less irritating to stack)
that seems easy to keep up with illisi lol
Blazing spirit is only good for Trauma staff
With its horizontal attacks - definitely
But it is crazy good for that
You can do some fancy shit with executor and uncanny on a Deimos
H1/L2 loop is great for primarily attacking horizontally
flaming illisi is kind of ameme
slaughter+something is good for blessings for perks id go flak maniac
slaughterer refuses to roll for me so I've settled on this for now
executor triggers on on repeated hits then you lose all stacks on one non weakspot
The issue with flaming illisi is that it only applies the burning to 1 target per swing
wait I forgot I wanted to use deflector
also if you're in melee you need to kill the thing asap waiting for soul blaze ticks is not ideal
when you can work in an extra swing reguardless
this will do for now.
time to spend an equally ungodly amount of resources on a trauma staff
Probably for the same use case as infernus, so against bosses
Uncanny and soulblaze actually deletes bosses it's crazy
the executor/uncanny interactions work better with deimos you get 4 stacks of each with one special attack from deimos
also you get one stack from either/both with one force push
dumpstat for trauma?
True but you need to swap back and forth with a Deimos which might be tricky
and for surge while we're at it
and perks/blessings

GIVE ME YOUR KNOWLEDGE SIBLINGS
Dumpstat for trauma might be damage
surge targets base armor so flak is important
As long as your trauma can oneshot bruisers you are good
scalling on damage isnt bad so you can get by with lower damage
thats for truama
for surge perks are flak+ elite/maniac/crit chance with blessings being nexus higher priority and flurry lower ish
I'd probably dump warp resistance
Surge should one shot shotgunners on non-crit
its the only god roll i have
and perks/blessings for trauma?
Either way nothing the trauma is good at is affected by stats anyway, you just start blasting and every single elite is rolling on the floor
something like this for blazing
Warp flurry/rending shockwave is the other
What are you on about lol, charge rate and blast radius are absolutely crucial
also yeah blazing only exists in t3
They help it be better but you can absolutely run a sub optimal grey trauma and it still does it's job
There's no "elite stagger breakpoint"
so if I added rending shockwave to this?
and which perk do I keep/replace?
Yeah, replace Surge with Rending shockwave
Idk about the perks tbh. If you run blazing spirit I like flak/crit
id go unarmored for flak and surge with rending
alright
secondary still targets base armor so id say flak
BTW the Blazing spirit version is way more satisfying so try to build one of those later too
Almost every elite in the game is considered flak by trauma/explosions so yea
that's one variant down

I can try for it now
Good luck 
I don't like blaze trauma though, although I'm like the only psyker here that thinks that 
sweet
Decent
How are you rolling these so quick 
I assume rending trauma works better with a cookie cutter creeping flames build and blazing spirit wants crit shenanigans from the tree?
tons of mats lmao
I put off leveling my psyker for a long time but my other characters have been finished for ages
so I was sitting on an ever growing pile of resources
There's only 1 crit node for psyker at the bottom that almost every build picks up
so for aiming it just imagine you're using a rumbler and invert your mouse 
Congratz, ideally you want even more radius, but it will work well enough to see if you even like it 
this one?
.
Yea it's on the way to peril block anyway
yeah
I was also thinking of stuff like this but is that not needed for BS trauma?
Don't do it 
I rather just go left side for cooldown to spam more creeping flames
using this locks you out of one with the warp and venting
5% crit aura locks you out of alot of nice things top left
Like cooldown reduction on elite kill
cool cool I like playing that so good
I take that personally
My trauma build uses bubble
found this build on reddit a while ago and saved it, seems simple enough https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9a7ee83e-c413-4394-8c17-155c33094526/dragonborn-psyker
Wildfire 
got it, and dumpstat for surge?
crit damage
No you don't want to dump crit damage
It also affects your crit chance doesn't it
It's like revolvers
Yeah, but change in Fire Reborn to Vampire, down in the keystone
just for the primary fire it seems?
Mine has bubble, EP and BR if you want a different take on it
It's not melee 
this is what some of us can agree on for surge with two free perks
Surge might not need PC
But if you don't take PC the psyker police is gonna catch you
so warp resistance dumpstat for surge again then?
yeah i dont use it but agent swears by it so idk
If you use creeping flames
Yea warp resist for most staves
Warp resistance is always a dumpstat
Since it can sometimes be awkward to get your peril high enough to shriek
Looking at you, Purgatus
PC is nice if you run into a group of gunners, it helps take them down faster
first roll. lol. lmao, even.
Warp resist hardly even gives you an extra cast from 0-100 so it's meh
I kneel...
Go nom some anus with it
Most of the time you are edging anyway so you will overcap on peril, hence resist isn't that valuable
The luck of some people 
@zinc ether look it's happening again
dont even mention it
Also you want as much peril flux as possible for toughness gen
I actually advocate for taking both quietitude and warp unleashed
FS just has an employee personally dealling with your upgrades
(With priority on quietitude)
You want your toughness to be getting replenished consistently
you mean warp expenditure
and yeah i wish warp siphon wasnt so fat 😭
The Emperor provides.
Quietude is the most reliable toughness Regen, since you can do it safely in cover without any enemies
need t4 warp flurry but that can wait. which secondary perk was most valuable? elites? crit?
Yes, it's essential for every psyker build imo
Yea none of my builds have it 
But, to take gunker in particular
i would say elite
When you're bursting you don't want to quell much
And your peril is constantly going up
Due to SG
theres two other people here including myself that have been rolling for surges like that for a while 
Elites hits the most of relevant breakpoints, I reckon
sorry
it happened when I leveled up my veteran as well, ages ago. hit lvl 30, rolled power cycler (back when it was t4 only) within 15 minutes
and I was one of the first people in ogryn chat with a t4 slaughterer bull butcher
good times.
I'm still waiting for mine. It's been about a year and a half.
smh thats nepotism i bet your uncle is fatshark himself
you got me
Reject power sword, embrace hatchet gaming 🪓
ok what about voidstrike?
you can either do peril transfer/flurry or nexus/surge
and uhhhh dueling sword
peril transfer/flurry is for infinite spam
I do surge flurry personally 
(any mark, you guys pick for me)
Surge < Flurry + Nexus
mk4 is the best one
Duelling Sword should be 4
Surge is irrelevent for anything that isn't a crusher 🤷🏿♂️
4, it's almost twice as damaging as the others
I like mk4 for dueling sword, Maniac, Unyielding, Uncanny and Shred
