Surge builds a lot of peril, you don't want low quell speed
I feel like half the reason autorifles are so overtunned is because no one would use them otherwise
omnissiah be smiling down upon me today with my blessings
wow they really did not need to buff scriers
Very nice
surge is very fun
What a shame those stats aren't better, that's a god roll
Naturally rolled both of them T4
Honestly though, those stats are pretty good
This is the best build imo, you can change some of the top half talents around
Warp resist might make peril edging a bit harder, but it really depends on if you peril edge in the first place.
Yeah I ran through 300k and that was the best I got. What I lacked in stat luck I got in really really good roles tonight
Unrelated, but I found a subway near me that makes bread like they used to a decade ago. I've had nothing but subway for a week.
Always need to peril edge to hear the voices loud and clear
Jeez my build is radically different to this
they're just boring to me, i need to have some fun while running assail
When that columbus guns down the Ogryn Gunner just right 

With the 20% CD modifier, Scrier's gets like 90% uptime now
@lethal lagoon I reblessed my tiny fire trauma. pew pew only
huh, looks very similar to my build. Only difference I think is I have the extend dodge, SG+Movespeed modifier only, and extra toughness

I pray not for you but your enemies
Just to double check I’m changing my perks to crit chance and like flak or something?
look at my laspistols tho
You can test out Flak Maniacs
Biggest advantage of Free perk surge is the experimentation
Flak unyielding, flak 5% crit, Flak-
Flak Elite 
I’ll maybe take flak crit

Is 2 the old or new one
It would be cool if you could spend a refine slot to buff the weapons core stats
I wouldn't use both, I'd just alter the left one when I wanted boss damage/dumdum
Carpace is kind of a waste stat
I'd personally use the 1st one, I prefer melee killing unyielding
The left one is BiS when you swap your optional choices
yeah i tend to use left one
Maccabian mk4 perks? I’ve got one slot free. It’s currently got unyielding and flak
but I think maniacs are forgiving now? (have not tested).
normally I just assail or shoot them, not bothering with the ridiculous stagger when you get combo'd
You want the pokey stick to poke mutants, so I'd do unyielding maniacs.
Mine's carapace, flak with rending
yes, ragers and mutants
I'm not sure if flak has any practical usage on ds4
If they don't have flak armor
In terms of breakpoints
Never used psykers melee weapons tbf
Usually run a void staff build which uses transfer to never quell
So anything near me tends to be blown to bits quite fast
ds4 heavies will annihilate pretty much anything
it does, boosts up damage against flak units, ie: those big ogryn with hammers
That's carpace
That's carpace bud, you can see it in the pysch
Can I get a fools rundown on how to play this? I’ve never tried scryer before
coz if thats the case, I'll switch my flak into mutant damage
People run carpace specifically for crushers
basically think of scriers as crit boosters
use it any time as you please may it be melee or range
Typically you run it with columbus. It's a run'n'gun playstyle, lots of switching between gun, assial, and melee.
Scrier's is for elite packs/bad moments for use with columbus mostly.
Great for pokey poke too
this works great with the skill that gives you range invulnerability skill node
I personally use them against groups of elites if needed with assail
Crusher head is Cara.
oohh thanks!
looks like I can drop flak
how's the DD patch for everyone btw? I did a quick run last night and nay I felt the change on the targetting system
the targetting certainly feels quicker but I think its still not that good
Oh god, you have 100% uptime on scriers gaze if you kill 12 elites during it with warp charges and pyschknietic aura, that's gonna be fun.
And it's not like you need 100% uptime.
Waiting a few seconds for scrier's to come back isn't a big deal.
It's melee build time 
I'm just happy they fixed the ability cooldown reduction
it feels quicker to recharge now
You still need like 2 seconds to quell 
is flakiac still the general best perks for void/gunker?
What weapons are you running
I typically don't extend them so there's no need to quell
I don't think you even need 12 kills
Well it depends if you're running seers presence and CDR perks
Pretty sure it's 12 or 11
Nah I meant if even you had scriers immediately after your current one ends you still need to get rid of your peril first before you re-scrier
scrier's last for 10s after you hit 100%, which is enough time to quell
Oh the damage, but no crit
Lmao I straight up forgot about quell time
I wonder if the afterglow effect stacks with scrier active effect 
Currently a staff which I know is wrong
If you're not front lining, I think its okay. SG still works okay with staff but yeah manange your peril.
I used to run Warp Battery with lightning staff on SG. its great if you have a good staff with good warp resist and quelling speed
I think my void staff would maybe be good as it’s got transfer and is CC/clear
I’m kinda only interested in getting the penance tbf as it’s a bit too situational/niche
Like the other two are just “use at high peril/use when need bubble” and then I don’t have to worry about it until I next have it up
Venting actually has huge damage potential, it's more optimal to use it to destroy shooters behind cover/walls or a huge horde
Ok am I going crazy or does every weapon card with 6 modifier bars lack one???
I don't think any weapons have 6 bars
They never had 6...
This was incredibly silly. I was doing LMB main and the psyker was doing smite. I was doing creeping flames every so often and that got more warp fire damage than the other psyker with purg because of how commited they were to smite. Loved that silly run.
Someone sneezed on the weapon card
Yeah, the weapon stats are in a different order and orientation. It is driving me up the wall.
I'm just being inflexible tho.
what does this actually give?
Oh fuck, maybe I should look through the penances, that's an actual penance challenge, rather than artifical challenge
They really did good work

it doesn'
Same
it doesn't specify heresy or damnation though
There's no auric maelstrom heresy
I reckon heresy maelstrom is gonna be filled with shitters wanting to be carried for the penance
Potato did you know I became a DS2 Stan?
There's literally no auric maelstrom heresy.
oh really
Heresy is it's own maelstrom
Or was
yeah okay, so then everyone's funneled into auric damnation 5
I have seen an insignia for 100 auric missions done... I assume they are not counting what has been completed before the update.. right?
It depends on the penance but lots track pre-update
haven't tried the new modifier, that plus monstrosity spawn sounds like ass
imagine kiting to a gassed area
Welcome to Fartland
with 3 chaos spawns on your ass
A mutie moving at light speed
Hmmm if only I didn't crash when trying to talk to Heltia
Oh, I just realized a way to cheese that penance

Oh well, I'm sure there's another hard one
well crit+invocation zealot can't really die in this game so I guess it's not a challenge if you don't want it to be
Assuming you are pubbing, part of the challenge is just beating 5 auric maels in a row.
No leaving or anything
Rather than just dying per say
wonder if the description implies you can't have any failed runs
I mean how would you fail a mission without dying or leaving
Oh, insta loss screens would be sadge if you were at 4/5 
Leaving/DCing counted for the malice downs one.
yeah I meant leaving
the draw is doing lots of damage while running fast
I have to ask - has your other teammates lack of speed (going through the map) gotten you killed in level 4 and 5
My teammates have literally never gotten me killed, that's loser talk.
Well okay, sometimes with old DH mechanics, but still!
If you can't survive alone, then you have no bussiness rushing ahead

Other than a teammate assassinating me with a barrel or something like that, I can't only remember one instance of a teammate goofing up and that killing me.
Otherwise it was my own fault if it was in a player's, capability to chance.
Between skill issues and brain fog, I feck up a good bit.
they just tryna make you suffer a little bit more until they drop the next update
I'm really a huge fan of that penance, I think ima browse and see what other challenging ones there are.
I think ill pass
considering my region is full of chinese
no hate, they always do seird shit
almost impossible to do penance properly
It does!
Only the finesse/damage stacks are active in the second phase, not the 10% damage and 20% crit base
Not really tbh

Because you have to quell first anyway
I am pretty sure some of the flat damage lasts too
But I suppose for about 5s yeah you're pretty Godlike
Only the "For every second spent in scriers gain 1% damage & finesse up to a maximum of 30%" part lingers
If you time it perfectly using solidity you could enter a fight with regular scriers plus 30% damage and 30% finesse for about 7s
But it's just a meme dream
How's columbus feel without assial?
I like it, been using it like that for ages
What melee you run
Yeah like I said the flat damage lingers
Duelling sword, deimos, rashad, knoife
No horde clear at all then?
the dueling sword with scirers is honestly enough horde clear, but assail is always an option
That's a bad way of describing it considering the 10% damage base doesn't linger
but the variable 30% does
Duelling sword is honestly not enough horde clear hence rashad is good
And we're specifically talking about without assail
I've run into a corner where my team literally didn't have enough horde clear to do an event, dueling sword with scirer's is definitely not enough. I mean tbf they were constantly dying and I spent a lot of time reviving, but still.
I have been running dueling/scriers/psy aura today and it's fine against hordes
rashad is which axe?
Combat
What is the benefit of the Rashad over the mk7 tac axe?
dueling sword is pretty good horde clear with the full scriers gaze, disrupt destiny build
mostly because it builds an insane overkill damage.
Duelling sword is bottom three horde clear
it kills two things per swing and attacks fast
it's not like an illisi or combat axe, but it's still functional as horde clear
Certainly functional
Armor penetration
true
And its easier to use
But I do like taxes
Did they fix the mk7? It was broken last patch
but it's less finesse scaling, attack speed, and dodge distance
Apparently
There was certain animations that were broken but this is 2nd hand info
I was using mk 2
well it wasn't broken enough for me to notice lol
It might not have applied to psyker since we don't have attack speed buffs
yeah that could be it
i know the IV has pretty frequent animation breaks when using the special but no idea for the others
the 4s attack patterns are too jank for me
Four has the vertical heavies right?
Do you primarily use them or the lights?
very easy to stop a mutant with
dont all the combat axes have purely vertical heavies?
I remember the only horizontal attack among them being a light on the mk2 or something
Tactical axe convo
thought I heard some caxes in there but idk nevermind
i mostly spam lights with pushes
since the push attack is functionally identical to the heavies
on zealot anyway
Yeah I use push heavy combo with the mk 2
Can reach one hit breakpoint on both bruisers and go to town with bromentum
I have been running this today with dueling sword/laspistol and tac axe/revolver and it feels very strong
the cooldown buffs make it feel so much better
Yeah that looks good
Amazing build even before this update
and now DD is much more consistent
Auric maelstroms are only tier 5 right?
trying DD with assail was legit giving me a headache, glad i switched
Cause there's a penance that says "Auric Maelstroms on Damnation"
And now I'm wondering if they just meant maelstrom
Void shriek was always extremely good with DD because it made refreshing it easier, should be even better now
Cause other penances have just "Auric Maelsteom
So there's a chance they made a mistake in the penance langauge
But it's under auric
So that's weird
i didnt get a single opportunity to see my own DD uptime lol
but i am using perfectionist now
man that bug sucks
What bug?
the buff doesnt show in the bar
Oh it still works even though you can't see it, are you sure?
Yeah you can go a whole game now without ever seeing a single DD stack
@lethal lagoon yes I'm sure
because the way to fix the bug is for the buff to fall off

and you rarely do now lol
I got the achievement and it never was on my bar lol
I have a buff bar mod so I never had an issue so far, played like 4 games
Oh fuck, no wonder some people said they never saw the bug
I was getting really confused a few months ago
when I talked about it and some people were like "that never happens"
its wild to me that it would take 100s to totally lose all my stacks
How easy are you finding it to maintain 20+ stacks
i dunno because the ffffffucking bug
Lmao
I was gamer 25 stacks until I realised I was one shitting bruisers to the head with only 10 stacks
but i already completed that new DD penance in three matches
so i guess thats a benchmark of some kind
Damn I only have 500

I'm not a real smiteker 😔
@lethal lagoon scriers cooldown: (25x0.96^3) - (25 x 0.1) - (25x0.45) = 8.3684
(Cdr perks, seers presence, warp charges)
I got 12 seconds without seers presence
Edited
I find it hard to believe seer's presence drops it to 8.3, I can go check right now though, issue is my mod rounds up
So if it's 9 seconds you might be right
Did u have cdr perks
yes
But yeah rounding should account for it
The number always rounds up
Otherwise you'd see a 0 in the last half second
10s
Weird
Did you say it was showing 20s without warp charges
Without warp charges but with curios was 21 I think
Its 19s with seer's
Okay so it's not seperate calcs, they are all additive probably
Or multiplicative cause that's bad in this case
yeah multiplicative
So does the mod round down?
Possibly
I wonder how worth it warp charges are cause it kinda takes a while for your Peril to naturally decrease
natural decay is actually just about 10 seconds
So it's pyschkinetic aura that might not be worth it
oh thank god
I'll never have to experience columbus BB
Lel
I'll be using warp charges for awhile to see
If you quickly get back warp charges you'll get a longer scriers from inner tranq
Yeah warp charges will be fun
I had no interest in working BB into it though lmao
Actually, I dunno, it does cover columbus's long range issues...

What about BB, DD, use the downtime to use BB to snipe elites to recover Scrier's
Assail is probably still optimal

ep assail dmg is back to what is was before the previous nerf?
Does BB still count as two hits for faster true aim stacks?
I would assume so
Didn't they only change the RMB damage
Probably?
Increased Based Damage of Assail Aimed Attacks: from 200 to 225. > yeah you're right
What breakpoints is that even for 
good question
Sniper bodyshot or smth
But also based on its fatshark writing those notes I don't know if they really meant RMB or LMB
Wrong channel but teach me your ways.
Pretty every enemy in the game lol
You press F then scan the things
only with empowered psionics
Doesn't sound right though, doesnt empowered RMB do 300 damage or smth
idk, the ep description doesnt say
grinding that cool infiltrator top amirite?
patch notes specifies ep though
well i use assail with dd and ep is only for br so....
The only time I dive into EP assail is my surge build
I should play that next to grind EP
Pick smoke nade pick stealth pick speed aura then use mk6 power sword and meme 
This is bugged with BB. Charging the cast halfway gives you a stack
meaning each successful BB will give you 2 stacks
It's been around since patch 13
i barely ever use those 2 together
can u still knock over crushers and bulwarks with the trauma staff on first hit?
has anyone else noticed the surge staff causing weird audio bugs?
I think audio is just bugged
one day it shall be mine, for the flavor text alone
its towards the end of the penance score rewards
Wooo!! got all the psyker penaces done. now i can sleeps x3
Let's gooo
My least favourite was probably the smite one but also it was my favourite because I roleplayed as onlysmites psyker for a couple games XDDDD
Same honestly 
smite is gonna be fun for me, i love smite
i was telling people thanks for subbing to my onlysmites and being annoying as always
Smite gud 
My first game on my alt psyker named OnlySmites

(it gave me credit for pushing a poxburster
)
🫵
This ogryn has two left hands
🫵 
What mod is causing me to crash in meatgrinder after killing an elite or special in there? 
hey i heard that this update psyker crit build is now good
can you share with me some good build with it
Gonna have to be more specific. Some crit builds have always been good, some are by far the highest DPS pre patch.
Not blaze trauma crit build nooo 
I can recommend surge creeping flames spam crit build though. 
I can send you my mod list. Not of mine are causing that problem.
fecking valid. I played with no mods earlier and I didn't like it. I
Play no mods and no hud
some are accessibility while others are qol.
Player numbers already approaching pre-patch numbers again 🗿
Yeah, I was saying earlier they should have waited till they had content to drop something like this

I'm already running into people I recongize
Back to whatever I was playing probably by tommorow.
That said, I really like the new penance system.
I wouldn't even be mad if there was a battle pass if it came with actual content

Trying to do smite penance, but I keep trying switch to my gun to quell. 🙃
Even though I play guns sometimes and should know better, I guess I'll just going to keep dumping ammo.
wooo
whats the weapons/talent tree for gun psyker
Together we can get blaze trauma be buffed.
Gun with smite, you need unlimited power 
Gun
...
The faster charge thing instead of blazing and replace specialist with flak

why flurry
There was another smiter and I kneeling in a hallway just zapping away side by side. 🙏
bait?

Imagine he actually caused someone to ruin a near perfect blaze trauma
Low key that'd be hilarious
But also 
lmao
Cause fuck blazing 
Right right. We need blazing 4 on staff
Anything that burns is cringe
Well it's not like I was looking to make it blazing but it's a good roll for that kinda staff
¯_(ツ)_/¯
1 shot is cooler than burning change my mind
Switching it from blazing to flurry doesn't increase the damage?
And I mean if it get's knocked over and dies from burning before it get's up,that's functionally a 1 shot
What a terrible time to have eyes
I tried to use a gun again yesterday, I kind of forgot to pick up ammo
Reminded only by my psyker complaining about someone else oggling ammo
What accent is the Loner Psyker female supposed to have?
is PerilGauge broken on new patch?
Huh. I had more fun with purg and EP BB than I thought I would.
It's GREAT
and if you build right the Purgatus do quite a lot on bosses
Ye. Decent for non-gun psyker.
Ye. Decent for non-gun psyker.
Gun psyker are kind of the oddities currently
It's weird to go back to gun after Staff, gotta be real
Gun has had our better boss damage, and didn't gaze get better up time and DD easier to have up? Either seem like gun boosts.
Boooo
I think it was with the auto cannon, I think the only gaze buff I've seen if that you can now reduce CD when active (which mean that you can use warp siphon with it now 🙂
DD is fine but I always find it works better with voidstrike because piercing 🤔
nonetheless, I agree that gunker good, I like gun
Indian
I don't how accurate it is, but when she says "solider" it's very clearly indian.
solider is a good accent tester.
She has the cute accent, that's all that matters
I don't have any issues with any voice 
Ah just looked it up.
Voice actress does Uk, Aussie, and Indian accents.
It sounds like a cray-cray verson of her indian accent
Cray cray is right 
I do with the atoma guard after 200 hours
no the actress is indian but shes doing a romanian accent
god bless we can change now
Oh I'm an idiot, it's very clearly romanian
You could change before, just make a second character

That's what I did for a different shirt color.
smh this is why americans fall for so many romance scams
I did ubt was quicly annoyued to do a fifth lvl 30 farm and xeapon farm
Americans fall for so many romance scams cause we have all the money

NOT FOR LONG YOU DONT
Blessings are account wide, so it's not that bad.
im gonna need 30k dollars to get my gold bars out of the north pole pls help
but not my godroll voidstrike and mkIV ,otherwise t would have been okay
I must have the wrong American frens. They are almost all broke or poor.
Good day potato
Fair well. Off to think about going to sleep.

hell yeah
wow i just spent two minutes real time clicking all the "claim" buttons in the penance shop
10/10 experience
yup same
So. Does kinetic flayer have a place at all between 15 toughness and flayer?
Or resonance vs 15 toughness
trrying to min/max a bit
2m dockets later
I have a near perfect surge staff
15 toughness is infinitely better
Yeah alright
Resonance depends on playstyle
That's what I thought, but I was just wondering if there wasn't a tiny bit better I could get y'know?
And I do run bb
Are you running warp charges
Yeah resonance isn't bad
But u might be missing something bc blaze trauma is points scarce
I'm doin surge for this
aha
And ofc I have the 5%!
My choices rn are between 15 toughness, 5% movespeed, flayer/resonance
I was thinking about the blaze u linked earlier
Resonance is most techy
I do like techy
BB is so slow without it
Yee
I pretty much exclusively use it for snipers or whatever far away
I'll run resonance and see
Welp perfectionism is quite hard to keep up with a melee build
cause the bulwark hp buff is bruuutal
Which isn't surprising really
Yeah it is
But it's so fun whacking them over the top of the shield
dunno yet, but it sucks killing them with surge staff
Sadge
I had 2 weird experiences
Where I died from half hp in one hit and only trash mobs were around
Then it happened again
There's almost no way 3-4 trash mobs hit me in perfect unity
half hp/half toughness
Maybe another case of people not knowing enemies are buffed in the gas?
Could be
Go through shield?
Also forcefield being gone seems like a lie
Their source: I tried it in one game and it felt funny 
I'll need to try that
Have we tried much DD stuff yet? Is it actually good, bugged, anything? One branch better than the other, or context dependent?
Perfectionism seems more trouble than it's worth
You still get marked targets not being where you want them and so every 4s is pretty rough
I've tried it with columnus and void but neither of them with assail yet
Maybe OK if you are triggering the 3 stack often?
Which Assail would possibly help with
I was thinking of making a Surge, Assail, Vent, DD build
for the penances if nothing else
Sounds like a pain tbh, 4s is a very short time in Darktide
Assail would definitely help because it just provides such a small opportunity cost way of killing shooters and bruisers that get marked
Try with voidstrike. Surge has good crit at least, but voidstrike has good crit and weakspot
Yeah that build with void will just be superior
For assail you don't need to many DD stacks to start oneshotting bruisers
Console aiming is not the best, voidstrike might be better, but not in my hands 
So lingering feels much better to me
@rigid sky I'll keep running perfectionism back but my early verdict is definitely that it's not worth it for only 10 more potential stacks
Yeah this is a good point
I would like to feel the power of a 25 stack CIAG but 15 stack has always been fine
And with lingering I can usually fight bosses with at least 10 DD stacks which feels good
The thing that really needs testing is scriers warp charges 
I wonder if that works better with less finessey weapons
Columnus works great with it
Couldn't feel a significant difference from DD
(Damage wise)
SAP 
25 stacks is kinda tough now imo
assail weakspot does make it a bit easier but unironically DD stacks are what marksman's focus should have been
Marksman's Focus... a keystone that's centered about not moving a lot really doesn't feel great
eh not just that
It's more about timing your movement
And autogunning heads
why is the weakspot reward better on a psyker than a vet
They double the duration and apparently it feels great now, haven't tried personally 
Camouflage made it more usable
fr you dont need to aim just get lucky with a couple of weakspot hits
I thought it was good already tbh
DD also gives flat damage buff
The funny thing is marksman keystone works better for spammy guns
Spammy but accurate guns. It worked really well with the equally unpopular E Stance
Maybe ill run it with agripinna shotty again
What weapon would work well with marksman? Headhunter?
caig
Nah, HH doesn't see a real difference
CIAG is incredible with it
Ciag mainly
tbh it works with everything
With high marksman stacks you just destroy mutants
You mow down shooters, specials and elites like nobody's business
if you do tag+stamina regen and deadshot its nice
Psyker CIAG imo is worse on trash shooters but better on bosses
I did use my columnus yesterday and thought I was being a heretic for doing that, guess I will do the penance with that then, thanks 
Yea psyker ciag plus SG is boss melting
OKAY BOYS
Wish me luck. I'm grinding for a near/perfect Illisi
nothing less than a rating of 375
Gooning?
Revolver too.
It doesn't need it but well it sure os a lot of stuff without waiting too much on surgical stacks
And bullet magnetism helps too
Male Loner is the German one?
Correct, they do have a Germanic accent indeed
Maybe I will get to it eventually, being German myself it was an instant skip when I made my psyker 
Executor is fine. Unyielding is OK.
Executor unyielding isn't the worst 
Hmmm
Not really bricked, it just missed your expectations 
Has anybody noticed that psykers Disrupt destiny keystone modifiers are bugged rn? If you die and are rescued all modifers for the keystone are disabled as if you never invested points into it, the base keystone is still in effect tho.
Idk if flak good, I guess for bucketheads
Yeah, I don't know how much I would want to use marksmans focus on a weapon that doesn't really favour shooting at shooters I guess
bucketheads and being able to 1shot gunners without charging
Not really but its still not good if youre going for boss dmg. Just using a staff or Gun would probably bring significantly better dps than Illisi ever will. @supple dock
yeah, I use staff on bosses
But yeah deflector is nice
It's hadron, don't look at me
And flak is definitely nice too
My other sword had like 69% finesse
But unyielding really is ehhh for illisi
Nice
which is why I wanted to swap it cause that's damage
yeaaaaah. not my favorite
Executor is kinda sad too
want slaughterer but eh
It would be a competitor with slaughterer if it didnt loose all stacks on weak spot miss
With illisi you could game with activated light spam on boss heads, just don't miss
Staves seem kinda bad for bosses besides purgatus
surge staff works just fine
Its just a visual bug apparently
Unless you're spamming LMB at a weakspot I guess
I usually end up with second most or third most damage
sometimes first if the team is really lacking
Just use knife or DS lmao unyielding damage is not very good for illisi anyway. I guess the finesse value is pretty good tho tbf
yeah the high base stats are why I want this
I managed to wreck a BoN spamming surge LMB at its wart lol
Huh, so the stacks are invisible to me?
Yeah
Thanks!
Functionally, surge is just a worse voidstrike
Cause you can accomplish the same thing and way more dmg with voidstrike
Oversimplification but eh sure
surge comes with more utility overall, being able to hold back a sudden rager or bulwark swarm
Surge is lower focus
That's what I used
and yeah, less focus used on attacking
Psyker dies when you are juggling too many balls
It's also faster than void
Why not just use voidstrike and kill them instead of holding em off
Just bowling ball em dead
For those reactive plays
But you could just get better at void and preempt encounters
If you turn a corner and there's a pack of ragers (recently happened to me) surge is gonna save you
right
And Dodge back a couple times
Unless it's flak ragers
Void saves you too
? Just charge full and run flak perk
They just suck up one entire ball
Should hit BP right??
Yea they die but doesn't pierce like maniac ragers
They still stagger
Run surge blessing 
And then you can blast them again
Maniac ragers is real bowling ball
Surge you kill two 
But they nerfed ragers anyway

It's literally "just dodge lul" now
Yea so ragers can also just be killed in melee if youre skilled enough
They made their combo actually DODGEABLE now
Multirager used to suuuuuck
It used to be flagged as undodgable btw
So you could only outspace it, but not iframe it
Now you can just spam side dodge vs ragers aylmao
Idk they seem to die just as easy to me
Void just mulches them
Mm. Will keep an eye out for a good void staff
Yea they die but maniac ragers die more
I spose, feels about the same but I run flak/cara
Didn't play since last patch. Is it really better?
Yea they also reduced the stun
the gameplay wall aka bulwarks is now fun to play against
As a zealot you can actually fight ragers with melee now
ragers no longer bs
Not just cry and take out gun
Random off-beat subject change: duelling sword 4 needs sizeable heavy dmg Nerf, also uncanny strike needs major Nerf or rework or something, its just too easy to proc big armor dmg with it
Definitely
Rending is not working too well right now
Like weapons with rending kill flak harder than unarmored
Having rending cap at 1.0 ADM would be fair
As a claw user... 😄
Trauma user 
But it was a pain with a caxe...
Smite user 🤩
Well ranged was the de facto answer whenever a rager spawned
1 on 1 is still fine
yeah i often told people "The trick to fighting ragers in melee? ....don't."
When it reaches 4 on 1 then nah
I just trauma them then deimos
I swear to God they changed something with crushers
I'm able to dodge their attack way better now or something idfk
You got better at the game 
Bro I swear I leveled up skill wise on my psyker lol
You really want that penance
Also the DD change is good.
But do y'all take the 25 or the 10 second choice for DD?
I was excited for 25, but lingering was more consistent
Exactly how I felt
I feel sad when my 25 stacks start dropping and I start to do more poor plays by chasing the targets instead of playing normally
Yup
That was exactly my experience as well
With 15 I'm able to just throw some assail and maintain 15 easily
So I shouldn't chase the blue man and just play, treat it like a bonus? Kinda like Martyrdom
Able to 1 shot or 2 shot ...almost anything
@marble crater I'm no expert but from my experience I can use assail to get a few stacks then generally it'll maintain with me just playing
Assail one shot bruisers with DD feels great
I really need to try it later today
I also have the other scuffed talents like the one that buffs warp damage on normal kill
I'm curious if I can get the same affect if I go like...the other 2 cap stones tho
@potent echo I can't recall if I have that
EP yes, your assail will then pierce up to 6 targets
I have rending too which I assume affects my assail
But you need EP to be active
Nah, removed last patch
WHAT
DD good
But yeah maybe my DD being way more consistent helps
Or they buffed assail and didn't say it
My boss damage still sucks ass
But I shred absolutely everything else
Usually a zealot or veteran kill the big boy monsties
I bring a Deimos for boss damage, but I usually do add killing during bosses anyway
Since people usually tunnel vision the boss
if I play Columnus Gunker, I am capable of dealing decent boss damage with Gaze...
@potent echo warp attack weak spot? I rock a demios too
Yea it's respectable damage
Hm. I must just stink cause
I guess I'm comparing it to zealot or veteran who seem to shred them
You want uncanny blessing
deimos is nutty
What's that so I forget...and I think I have that
You won't shred, just be decent
Although Deimos wrecks scab captain lol
Bit more than decent lmao
@upper sun that's my bread and butter dude
It's nearly gun lugger level
yeah, I meant decently high (as in less than vet or zealot tier, but still good)
My demios fucks up everything
also one of the most bullshit op staggers in the game
If there's.mlre than 1 crusher I just trauma CV then bye bye h2
Legitimately the biggest reason to take lingering
Or do the block push h2
executor loses stacks on non weakspot hits
but its ok as far as blessings go its not exorcist or blazing
It doesn't wtf
I always was pretty good at splitting between blue bois and real targets
I'm in psykanium rn
5 stacks even with a body shot
cause thats what i thought too
OH
Wrong sword
OKAY THAT MAKES SENSE

btw, I have found regular BB (as in, Brain Ruptrue without EP) to be good at sniping DD targets, and when paired with soulblaze Shriek and Kinetic Resonance, it helps quite a bit with getting more DD stacks via headshots when not in melee range...
It works better for you than Assail?
I like Assail because it's kinda auto-stacking
Seems inefficient
I can sometimes get 2 weakspot blu bois with one funni blu noif
I want to also get CDR from Elite/Special kills and Wildfire, so BB will have to do...
6 stacks in an instant
Don't we all 
Yeah fair enough, PsyAura is strong as fuck
It's not enough to turn me off Assail though
(When assail is productive anyway)
Time for mini psyker?
i am manlet psyker
btw, what do you guys think of my psyker's name?
surge only psyker rite?
nope! I just thought the name sounded funny...

average height psyker for easy melee weakspots
A lot of melee weapons benefit from you looking above enemy heads
Can we make names with a space between words? I don't remember
So me having a really tiny zealot is not ideal then...
Just take a zarona
I do, was more thinking because of melee
for me nah
im too used to melee on psyker
with vet i feel like a dwarf
with zealot i feel like a giant and i overshoot attacks
So all average height then
Anyone else feel like bubble isn't lasting as long since patch?
like there might be a damage limit now
It always had a hidden health pool
If it’s under constant fire, it will eventually expire sooner than it normally would
lmfao
Always has been, but with a minimum duration too
I like min height so I blind my allies less with fire and can cleave over crowds with melee and voidstrike more easily
just made a tall psyker for more bb stuff though
Zealot speed running Aegis Station and doing the end event while you have to actually fight through 3/4 of the map is some real fun 
Seemed like under heavy fire in the auric maelstrom I just did it lasted about 3s
I like to use bubble with brain rupture, Kinetic Resonance, enhanced psionics to be able to defend the bubble from gunners better
I like bubble with my assail EP builds but tend to run stun wall with BR for the extra charges
and its fun with the wave of muties modifier
it always has man
peak
yeah just felt shorter duration wise than before but couldve been the circumstances
yeah unironically good for running gunpsyker without scriers
Minimum height isn't good for voidstrike
wdym yes it is. you're eye level with everything
which means you can cleave an entire hallway by yourself
maybe an extra inch or 2 up would be ideal, but short is good regardless
No, you aren't, you have to point upwards for a bunch of targets, if you shoot horizontally on max height psyker you hit even the shortest enemies in the head
you oniy have to point upwards for carapace weakspots your shots dont pierce through anyways
everything elses head is pretty eye level
even muties
it is big enough you could be taller and perhaps cleave over more aiming above their heads, but also it does enough damage that hitting torso is good enougj for most target anyways
which is good
cause of warp rider
especially good for gunpsyker
What’s the standard talent tree for gun psyker
That would be nice except its incorrect
DD/gaze whatever stuff applies for not only warp damage
^this
They’re speced assail so yeah
You could put that elsewhere if you wanted
It's 28th-30th point
idk assail has a low crit rate
ye id rather have toughness on peril gain/quell on gunker
Like the smite version of the spec due to smite being more useful still never use either of them maybe assail is better though now
smite upgrade is not at all useful
dont say that here or else youll wake up atlas
True aim.
🤔 are you sure thats not the gaze boosting it
ah ye
ok its a solid maybe for me
Assail gets like 40% crit from true aim
Atleast
Yikes I just tested min height voidstrike
It's so bad
You have to aim above the heads of things to guarantee voidstrike headshots
Max height is objectively the best
What I like after the patch atm note haven’t tried assail yet and have been meaning to
Why do you have soulstealer
Otherwise good
Imo drop the node under warp rider and consider dropping warp speed; take the peril-goes-up-gives-toughness thingy and maaaaaybe the other assail node
Lmao misclick yeah 1 extra point
But that's minor tweaking, otherwise perfect imo.
Yeah I go back and forth on warp speed and quick shards
anticipation instead of soul stealer
I'd rather have 15 toughness than warp expenditure though
The centre point in DD isn't great
Fair enough, I think your constellation is valid too fwiw
Just giving some alternatives for consideration
smite is the objectively superior blitz for scrier's gunker
Perfect timing is really good but I think it's for builds that use more warp damage
Really even I guess it’s only good if it procs during scrier’s
Think about it as an average of 3% peril reduction per blue man kill
It's just low impact for a precious talent point
If I had like 35 points maybe it'd go on the list
Yeah when you put it like that it’s awful
I’m quickly approaching lvl30 (prob by eod) and was wondering if anyone would be down to help teach a newb about life post lvl30 and how to beat setup for end game.
decide to try mk 7 taxe, instantly godroll
you cant really put it down to an average like that tbh
just like battle meditation isnt really 1% quell per kill
God damn
its more just a sudden burst you can take advantage of
for staffs, maybe, not for scriers
like for me the benefit is that i dont have to hit R to throw out another shard
or it buys me a couple extra seconds of gaze
Which weapon do you like? All staffs are fabulous, as are a few of the guns
but its totally unreliable
Learn to dodge and block when it's appropriate
