What else is going on to not have getting the vet off the floor a priority?
To me it sounds like you making excuses to not help your team is main character syndrome
i have godroll of each dueling sword, they're all usable in damn+ with the right complementary build, but ds4 will always reign supreme for dealing with crushers etc
Well no, when I run smite I'm in 1st place damage by far.
Brings up irrelevant damage numbers
Main character syndrome
I hate smite. Seems wonky lately.
So you do no damage and then blame your team for failure?
"I cant help anyone Im too busy carrying"
I mean... cool.
yea cause it's a damage tool
And no, I pretty much always have the most revives.
Man I love smite
stop being the mercy main darktide equivalent, embrace soulblaze EP smite
EP smite did not need a buff, but it's pretty hilarious
Smite has poo dmg and takes forever to stun the ogryns ocasionally.
I was kinda meh towards it, but I think its going to be my primary build even when im not doing penances
why CC a horde with your weak shield build, when you can instead melt a mixed horde so fast your killfeed looks bugged
im playing the game now. Its a support tool first
Its like having unlimited stun grenades
EP smite -Flaming shriek -> ep smite will kill a rager.
not anymore with EP
but yea the ogryn stun
EP?
is just cause they made all ogryns and monstros more stable, they were getting bullied way too easily
Empowered psionics
middle keystone, empowered psionics
Ah, even with it up it's killing so slow and randomly takes a bit to stun the chonker enemies.
But I think the latter is a bug.
well tbf, smite EP and Smite Warp Charges was fine for damage if you took the soulblaze talents to compensate, and soulblaze vent
One use of EP smite and Flaming shriek will literally kill almost all elites, ragers included.
it's probably some of the best horde clear in the game
Are you fully charging smite then holding it until they die?
smite bubble warp charges so i can bubble for my team more uwu
Can you shriek without interrupting it?
fully charged, shriek doesn't interrupt unless you are like, at 98 or somethign whatever the safety point is
Also, without warp charges, EP smite is pretty fast, it's not as long as you think.
it's actually can get pretty long
you get the quell on kill, you get the cdr on elite kill and the cdr aura (elite aura is also usuable)

and you get the perfect chains
i got 4 shrieks in a row
i stopped smiting because there were no more enemies, not cause i hit 99%
And then you do that little side dodge while smiting, pushing your team forward.
Such fast games sometimes
I really try not to use EP smite too often, this game just isn't built to handle it.
It's a mistake of an ability
medic from tf2 ruined some people's mindsets i swear
then it's mercy, then it's just this weird thing where people would rather be pure support than do anything for themselves
I play mostly support/tank builds. Like the smite Psyker+shield to stagger the enemies and the tank ogryn to pull aggro and hold them on me. So my damage output ist not my priority. I also like to play the Zealot to on support with chorus ability. But damn out of 3 people are to stupid to play their class in a efficent manner. Im so tired of thi...

Steam dicussion forums are wild
People are as racist as they are bad at games on there
i remember the people begging for a healer class in darktide like that wouldn't instantly fuck up the balance 10x worse than pre nerf survivalist
i can't handle steam discussions
i can barely handle redditors
I read them sometimes cause they are funny
sometiems i'm scrolling through the cute animals on reddit then I get hit with the worst darktide takes imaginable
"Blaze Trauma is literally the worst psyker staff"
god "you can carry not in damage but in skill"

SHIELDGRYNS CAN DO 800k+ damage stop coping just cause you use the weapon poorly
emperor save my eyes
I was reminded about this post, that's why I was arguing earlier lmao
like i'm not saying support abilities can't be useful, they can
but it's usually when a player is USING their ability to enable their own damage, and that's why I personally hate chorus
Only time I've lost on the scoreboard has been to someone who's also a better team player.
Like it's a horde game
They are connected
it simply kills the dps class to 0 dps for the channel, and if you abuse crit cdr, sure you make the heretics do the heathen jiggle but you do 0 dps yourself during it
it's such bad design
it should be like, an aura buff you turn on, have it pulse way slower but you can actually kill things during it
Post nerf, that's actually a good idea.
The toughness gen might be a little much then
Esp with CDR recovery zealot has
oh yea
crit cdr needs to die in a hole
i hate that crit is so stupidly easy on zealot that you can run any weapon with it cause lmao free 55% crit chance from talent tree
momentum deserved the nerf and it's still the most reliable option but it shouldn't ahve been nerfed while that left side abomination was still there
I have runs where I do not top DMG but I was constantly reviving / rescuing people, killing disablers / elites. Total DMG is not a very good metric tbh
top damaging sure
but you shouldn't be bottom damage significantly less than everyone else
see it's like, twisted words, it's not that you aren't top damage, only one person can be anyways, sometimes I get top sometimes i'm lower
very rarely am I bottom damage BUT
i'm not far behind the person ahead of me
like, 30k gap at most
but if your team is between 400k-800k, and you are doing 150k, there is an issue that won't be made up by you just doing the things you mentioned above
Out of all the backseating, toxic players, yelling on mic, I have yet to encounter a toxic player who wasn't last on the scoreboard.
well, besides killing specials/elites those add up quick
Ah yeah is what you mean
me neither lmao
If I am last I am not that far behind. And with mostly DMG concentrated on bosses / elites / specials
i remember, I asked a fellow zealot why his hammer didn't do a lot of damage, wasn't bad mouthing, just saw him swing and hit and it barely chipped the boss
he slur'd me and said not to question his build and I was trash and not killing everything
i just started to read his and mine damage and kills
he ragequit
cough cough you can get banned for that cough cough
him and his skullcrusher thunderous hammer
oh i was too busy laughing my ass off to care to report him, but I do have the screenshots (name blurred out of course) wayyyyy back in zealot chat
I meant you
Well also him for the slur
But using a mod to shame someone is bannable as far as I am aware
why would I get banned
The main rule of fatshark is that mods don't negatively impact other players
I don't know how hard they enforce it though
if you use it as harassment yes, if you use it in response to a statement, nah
he threw the stone I didn't have a glass house
people have been banned, we had a person in discord complaining why he was banned ingame,
Oh, that's good to hear, as long it was a good reason lmao
also I believe if you kept using the blacklisted mods you can get banned
but the list of blacklisted mods is only a handful and most are fixed so they can't use the exploits anymore
The one that let you spam voicelines in the mourningstar and the one that rapidly swapped your weapon and swung for you, letting you attack 5 times a second
People who did the second one manually are wild childs

I pray for their wrists
nah it's fixed now
Last I checked you could still spam the l1 of a weapon super fast
Animation canceling for surge too
I haven't checked in a couple months though
I hate doing that stuff, cause it will get fixed, eventually, and then my nice tool is gone.
So I never really use it.
let me vacuum capsule 😦
I think ive reached the limit of possible FPS for now.
The resolution could probably be decreased
557 fps

does toughness regen blessing only regen in coherency?
I assume you mean perk on curio
so it doesn't actually make u synergies with the bubble?
No
or the venting of your peril
Nein
wow sadge
Getting more toughness would though, cause it is % based.
Toughness regen is pretty good though, esp if you are always around teammates.
Or if you don't take a lot of toughness related talents on the skill tree
ussually by default i go stam/health/tough on vet and zealot
Stam is nice on psyker cause of the insane regen rate.
Lots of people rough 2-3 toughness curios cause Psyker has some pretty nice toughness regen options
but I have seen very different cuirio priority depending on the build
Uhhh, do you mean "builds" you find online?
A high percentage of those are complete shit
Ah ok
im reading the steam guide:
21.2 Curio Perks
Tier list:
S Toughness Regeneration Speed
A Sniper Resistance (especially if no health),
Grim Resistance (only for running grims, no health),
Toughness,
HP
B Gunner resistance
C Stamina Regeneration,
Ordo dockets (for farming),
Flamer Resistance,
Bomber Resistance
Garbage Corruption Resistance, Mutant Resistance,
Hound Resistance, Experience
emperor just gave me this
damn
Cooldown reduc is really good atm
i've always liked it
Making sure you can survive 2 sniper shots is nice.
Everyhing else is really personal preference.
That said, 3 x 5% toughness is basically a 4th curio
but the guide says the best stat is toughness regen because it shortens the delay
In general I'd personally swap grim res and corruption res on that list especially since tox gas is a lot more common now and corruption res covers grims anyway
Toughness regen is a contentious subject 
I ran 90 for a long time and quite liked it.
But some psyker builds just have so much toughness regen from talents it's a little too extra
I’m running a disrupt destiny with trauma blaze staff and it’s pretty good tbh
Having a base 30% crit chance helps ton
dd and gunker is low key uber busted
Apparently putting the lowest settings possible in the game made me consume more wattage then actually having the highest.
Mainly because the CPU begins to work itself hard.
Is maelstrom survivor carryable you think?
Just depends on how far you are willing to go in running the most op builds, with unorthodox strageties.
I did my maelstrom survivor for the most part solo.
Just trying to figure out how credible one is for having it for skill
Carryable as in could a random pub queue 5 times and get it?
Despite being bad?
I don't see how.
Carryable as in having 3 friends pull your ass through it? I guess. But its so easy to die to random shit when you are bad at the game.
I feel like it's a good measure of skill, it'd be really hard to be bad at the game and get it.
I could probably get someone the penance in an hour.
Its just going to be really boring.
Oh it works with late invites?
I mean that would still be like 3 hours
Oh, speedrun strats, yeah.
The likelyhood of someone doing this anyways for the penance is basically nonexistant
I believe i read it doesnt count if they join late but not sure?
Why flak?
I like carapace. Unyielding is not bad too if you melee monsters.
I honestly just go to the gameslantern builds and look at what people have on theirs
which do i keep for blazing trauma shenanigans (right one just has transfer because i was trying to game consecration)
I heard someone said the #1 build on there is really weird.
really? which build is it?
Not sure just the #1 overall build for psyker or whatever. Tell me what weapons/blitz/ability you want to play and I can give suggestion.
It's a voidstrike without true aim

I forgot about that, I just corrected my memories to nexus flurry
The reality was too harsh
Left, ranged damage to Crit chance or Flak
Sustained to blazing
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9a5bb8a6-6593-4e77-8f40-a4cbc6e2bb70/psyker-assail-crit-build-t5-auric
running this build right now
It's okay a bit heavy up top.
for surge voidstrike id recommend something like this, taking ability cdr on curios. a lot of the top nodes arent necessary if you have good peril management, + perilous combustion isnt the greatest for dmg
Do you need battle meditation?
those 3 nodes have less value than the one you did not take
hmm assail is wasted here with surge voidstrike, i would go smite instead and well, surg void benefits from dd the most
i figured he wanted to keep assail
also, assail + void mhhh
if not this is the optimal path
consider the the time you spent assailing is time you're not spending voiding
And spreaded horde.
it's harder in sedition for sure
in t5 you get group of shooters you know

i dislike the non aiming part of lmb assail
also psa anyone who is even thinking of trying gunker with scriers + dd please do im begging you its fantastic
i am trying sg + warp charges atm
well it benefits a lot of finesse weapon fore sure
it is just straight up better than warp charges for gunker
but being at constant 4 or 6 warp charges + getting sg back quickly is tempting
consider warp charges give max +24% dmg for your gun. at max dd stacks (which is not hard at all to obtain or even to keep) you get: 15% dmg, 30% crit dmg, 37.5% weakspot dmg, all of which are multiplicative bonuses, not additive. its crazy.
and thats not even factoring
that killing marked enemies also replenishes toughness, quells peril, and gives move speed
It's a blast.
using columnus v with dd + scriers legitimately feels like i toggled a damage hack
also this shit makes ds4 the most broken melee in the game
2 tapping crushers and maulers while also being really good horde clear
note that i have not touched dd once with a gun since the patch
Same assail void is very safe for yoloing everywhere
You can almost never be out of position
For venting shriek what's the better ability modifier, Creeping Flames or Warp Rupture?
Creeping flames no contest
If you press it at 85% peril you will inflict 6 soulblaze stacks
That is enough to kill all shooters
also taking creeping flames with warp charges lets you basically light the entire level on fire
from how often you can use it
Where abouts is warp charges?
this keystone
empowered psionics is good for focusing on blitzes, however if you want to max the strength of your staffs always use warp charges
and if you run gun psyker disrupt destiny is op
And that's why I went with what I did. This build I'm talking about is support psyker with smite
EP is tailor made for smite
i do this for smite with a surge staff and deflector illisi
it's wildly safe, you can handle most threats on your own, and it's great for support
Although I'm still not 100% sure which is better, Bio-Lodestone or Overpowering Souls for EP
i use this build in auric maelstrom with little issue
Bruh 1000 is a lot. 
I can’t imagine not taking warp charges with surge, I already feel like surge does so little damage compared to other options
nexus/flurry surge does fine on its own
The need an Edit mode for the talent tree so we don't need to delete half the tree to change one ability
Warp charges is mainly to spam more creeping flames
If you wanted a flat damage buff DD is there to give 1% per stack and last pretty long, it costs less to invest in DD than warp
Thing about warp charges is that you get some damage as well as cdr and peril reduction
It’s a good middle ground
and with the surge staff being as peril hungry as it is the peril reduction and shriek spam is welcome
Vent speed also helps surge more
I just don't feel like edging when I play surge strangely
I rather quell more then get more casts
Blitz cancel surge meme let's go
Yea probably that
Blitz cancel swap back quell just doesn't do it for me
And I rather have some peril left over to chuck assails
Surge assail 
It's my only EP build lol
god bless auric and high int
Surge is there for fun
I got 65 in about 25 mins ish in a maelstrom. And that's with me trying hard for it.
So it'd still require at least 10 games easily.
Maybe I need to wait for muties and hounds train modifier. That is if ppl don't kill them from range.
20% cdr modifier 
Surprisingly I got like 23 rock kills in 1 round. And it only require 75.
So shouldn't take too much longer.
I've noticed the worse the ability the longer the penance
Did they use some sort of metrics of over/under used abilities to make these penances?

worth building up or is the first target too low?
I reckon they'll reduce a lot of these.
Ob is useless
The og warp explosion killing 5 elites(?) Back in the day xd
I’d avoid the obscurus sword In general but if you like it the stats aren’t a deal breaker
At least it used to do real damage
which force sword do you recommend?
Illisi or Deimos
What do you want to use it for?
Both are great
Deimos has a great m1 poke and heavy 2 poke, really great burst dmg, while illisi has powerful heavy sweeps and the special buffs them pretty well for horde clearing
essentially as a panic button in case I get caught off guard in close quarters.
Illisi would fit that well
Illsi
You can just spam lights or heavies. Don't need to use special unless you want to stun a rager or have room to mow the lawn.
I’d say illisi is good to spam but Deimos spam does better against mixed hordes
are earned blessings shared between the force swords?
Yes
and what're the dumpstats for the Illisi?
Warp res/mobility preferably
Slaughterer is fantastic, the second option is up to you
Deflector is good for defense
Bloodthirsty is op for special spam
Uncanny/shred aren’t bad options at all either
Not worth imo
🧱

i took all of hadron's bad hadron RNG for psykers this week
fucking 200+ trauma staves before i got nexus 4
she kept on giving me run n gun
i feel like
thank you for your sacrifice, I rolled a perfect Columnus earlier today on accident lmao
crafting is seeded to the time of day
so if you roll at the same time its gonna give you to same thing 
i think there is some kind of rng seed for blessings
i generally try not to roll a ton of anything at once because of bad luck like what i went through with traumas this past week
The desire sensor is real
fr. once i have all the t3/4 blessings for a weapon and just want a better one, i rarely have to roll a bunch to get something with good base stats
Genuinely I have never attempted to go out of my way to roll for one specific thing, I just take what the game gives me and roll with it, and I’ve gotten so many amazingly rolled weapons I never asked for
BUT
The one time
I want to get uncanny 4 on my mk3 zealot knife
It takes me
5 months
i've largely been set with my weapons on all classes, i got real lucky with most of my favorite weapons on psyker and have god rolls for most of them
but i wanted to try out blazing trauma
Melk handed this to me on a silver platter one day
Never even considered trying blaze trauma till then

No rolling required
Only tier 3 blazing spirit? Weak

I love hearing stories of people blowing resources searching for tier 4 lmao
Well got the resources might as well use them on something.
Can I get soulblaze as a lowbie?
(there's no tier 4)
(on trauma)
Always check the gameslantern page ye
Also useful for figuring out tier 2 blessings that you can mostly only get from brunt.
There is a tier 4 on force sword, so it's a bait and switch
Purgatus, creeping Flames and perilous combustion are all easily accessible earlyish
Keep in mind all staves are pretty dookie early level
Unlike guns or swords, their basic functions rely on stats
Their speed, aoe, range, etc.
Staves also synergize way better with talents.
Trauma can do soulblaze too with the right blessings but trying to set that up this early is madness
Using Trauma early is madness.
Leveling up a psyker as the 4th class I'm leveling and the early levels are a snoozefest.
I don't know what fatshark was thinking making that the first staff unlock
It's like 50% peril usage for 0 damage
Other blazing spirit weapons exist, but they are not worth it ever.
I get to BB two specials every now and then when my screech is off cooldown.
That nearly put me off the class
If some level 16 vet with a bolter doesn't get them first.
Malice and below seems to be full of bolter vets
Considering psyker is the most popular class, I wonder if psyker would be 50% the playerbase if the starting part wasn't so shit
Remember to quell to 97% and you can BB again
Or swap to another blitz like Assail for now
So I can safely charge it to 100% and let em rip?
The very first time I leveled psyker, back in the beta, I literally just spammed BB and did nothing else.
Yeah, if you start from 97, BB is safe
Yep. It's safer than it looks
Staves you don't want to unleash at 100%
BB?
Assail and smite both look very boring. At least with BB I can look for cool targets to get soulblaze off and delete crushers.
It used to be called Brain Burst
Now it's Brain Rupture
But that's dumb and I refuse to use that name
When you have Shriek ready, play around and see what you can get away with

Working towards shriek.
Assail isn't boring lol
Smite is pointless at low difficulties though
Loving being able to stagger ragers with basic forceswords tho
Just juggling 4 of them.
Cap. Look at my lvl 1 run using smite. We destroyed.
I Only used smite the whole round

Kek
I'm sure you did. You probably could have done similar running around with something shit like a tac axe paired with an autopistol though lol
I'd like to find a build that's only smite
(The joke is that lvl 1 doesn't have smite and I literally did nothing but block and dodge the whole game because I'm named OnlySmites)
I loved the Chain Lightning Sorc in SWTOR
Smite and Surge is a solid build
Chain lightning CC, single target lightning to kill shit
A lot of people combo it ye.
Take Shriek and Creeping Flames too
Why think. Just zap
Rip derlin now its traxis seven eleven

I wanted to name traxis something something but it's too long.
loose cannons are the best vets
i changed mine to loose cannon with the update
i am uncertain how to feel about it
same
my friend changed his to cutthroat for like 2 matches
male cadian is just too loud
I don't get purgatus until 15?
and in my case it was the opposite, fem loose cannon felt not loud enough
but! she is funny
Yeah female loose cannon is what I have now from male cadian before.
Male cadian has best shout voice line though.
Very macho and aggressive
Picked him just for the shout lines
more pleasant to hear
picked fem cadian for the purple eyes
I don't want calm, I want to leave none alive
"calmer than constant yelling" doesn't mean much, to be fair
how do you feel about tje concept of closing, killing, then doing it again?
It doesn't
he can be a bit much, especially if he shouts that aggressively with only a few enemies around
I like it, it's simple
i am also a fan of putting the karking boot in
Me too, also changed to female loose cannon for a bit 
I WANT THESE KARKERS DEAD
the purple eyes are so cool
also zero lines
fem loose cannon adds that little laugh at the end, it's great
whar
male cadian too angy, professional is agonizingly boring, and loose cannon is hackneyed
"i 'ate snipers, won't miss that one"
my eyes are going to roll out of my head
though i might switch to cadian simply because of this meme
idk i feel like fem cadian has less lines
or had before the patch
fem cadian interactions were broke for a long time
i like the female cadian saying “i wanna hear them scream!” better, has more malice to it
True. True.
Professional male vet > everything else
fem loner :)
I will say that one of the most unpopular voices imo is the female seer
She doesn't have that same tone of insanity and humor so she just sounds... sad.
i love male seer
i love both seers
A sniper snuck up behind me, kicked me, and blocked me from dodging a crusher overhead. 😭
But I am male loner memer shrieking in high pitch.
i do not like either savant
My favorite.
PlaaAaAAAAssss stEeeEeeeeEellll
I played with an ogryn who had bound their spacebar to saying "diamantine" and omg idk what voice it was but he said it in so many different pitches it was amazing
I think it was the friendly ogryn
dumb hungry
To defend my dream!
i like hearing him when he uses smite. maybe that’s why that thing happened with ep
Good to see that people switch to male seer, while others switch away, balance must be maintained
i’ve been a male seer since beta. i’ve always believed in him and his beloved
The other voices don't fit with my name unsanctioned psyker.
become your voice
You can change your name now 
or you could give your character a name
No I can't change away from unsanctioned psyker.
Ok. Terrible meme build for penance farming. Exorcist blazing illisi with SG.
Can't, or won't
what penance is that for
exorcist is one of the blessings in the game
Perilous Focus. I don't really use SG, so I'm gonna meme.
ye
i just need damage aura one bubble SG and EP
also private game but i refuse to be social to earn good boy points
BUGS beneath my HEEL
We can do the private game one, don't even need to talk, first DH we see I tank with shield ogryn and you brain burst away 
It's very nice looking armor
ogryn shield we did TWO FUCKING MONSTERS
I had a random pug help me with that penance lmao
but bots said no
Kill the bots beforehand
ye i try to help before hand
I was like "but what if I got my penance here?" and they were like "fuck it l;et's go"
it was assassination torrent 😭 no rails
i asked two different groups of people to help with the rescue 3 people one
i got 6 people to commit suicide and i still didnt get it
tried it with bots too
fuck that one seriously
It'll happen naturally
I wouldn't go for it
You're gonna clutch a scenario and get it without thinking about it
it doesnt happen naturally tho
I got it naturally, so it must be possible
most games one person doesnt die
just play malice
if 3 people die at once
I got it done on maelstrom aha
go into #psyker-class channel
read "i got 6 people to commit suicide"
Cause I clutched
when i rescue the first person the first person up is gonna save the third while im saving the second
Call the witch hunters
people do weird shit in malice and 3/4 players die a LOT
real manson hours
if i had a nickel for every time a psyker got stuck and i told them in chat to explode so they can respawn, i’d have two nickels
had a zealot get shadowrealmed during auric maelstrom yesterday during a boss spawn and mutie/dog wave, shit sucked
Last time I got stuck I waited for a mutie to grab and throw me free 
one time i hotjoined into the void and instantly fell to my death
Nice
Dropped in, got netted, died
"stupid bot died. wait, where'd the bot go? oh"
you ever watch a bot fail to free someone from a net just to engage a horde in melee?
i was heated
a trip to the golden throne is funnier
No because i rarely get netted 
the time i saw it happen i was already dead lol
res psyker in the middle of 5 ragers, 2 crushers, a bulwark and 300 poxwalkers as a stealth zealot
psyker dies
"what a joke"
![]()
LOL
i'll bet that zealot still had some grenades
Eh skill issue on the psykers end, shouldve dodge slid backwards
Stealth and toxic individualism go together like psykers and anurysms
Nah jk you almost always get ressed right before the crusher hits
i once got in a lobby with a premade duo of speedrunning knife zealots, both had indefatigable frame so i figured i'd give them a shot. they killed the run after 10 minutes by aggroing literally everything and not being able to deal with it
save scum frame 
Remember that the game spawns more enemies if you run ahead
More than one stealth on the team = I dip
the duo i had in an auric pub one time kept spamming “gg” in chat after every minor inconvenience, and there were a lot of minor inconveniences
gg
'Thanks'
people with indefatigable are either very good, or complete trash; it makes me annoyed because it's my fav frame
boowomp sound effect
happened naturally for me
everyone just happened to die-perish
I wonder which one I am 
you are probably A.S.S. 
I wish, I had my auric without dying penance ruined yesterday 
JIIIIV? More like JEEEEZ
Gassy snipers
stealth farting
Tbh, bring gun psyker and win
tempted to bring my bubble void build
would be more incentivized if malleus WAS UNPRIVATED, wink wink nudge nudge FS
My bubble trauma would do well too
EP brain rupture and bubble both dunk on snipers
And I can deny BoNs at least
i'd totally be down if it weren't for the pox gas
that shit lingers way too long as a visual effect past its harmful duration
anyone know of any warren penance where you have to shoot blue bottles?
cheesable
metalfab has an exploit where you can skip to the last level
Game keeps handing me these nicely rolled Traumas when i already got near perfect such
got a good shotgun for vet
though its not a lawbringer
aaaaaa
now i have to play vet for weeklies
You can choose to play Vet for weeklies 
Why have to?
I often skip either Psyker or Vet nowadays
I love all the classes tbh
I didn't really back in VT2, only Saltzpyre really felt like home
But they're all so satisfying here
Whats the easiest way to get the cliffhanger penance?
It seems so easy, yet i dont have it.
This worked for me first try https://youtu.be/SiZp4X8YQww
This is the psyker penance where you have to knock some enemies off of a ledge. Did not expect to get it that easily. I guess the enemies jumped off on their own and my smite killed them while they were doing it.
Huh, this is the assasination map. Feck, forgot the name.
Chasm Station


Can smite critically strike?
Nice, that top was my plan for surge/smite too, it looks so good
normally i don't like all the toobs on the clothing, but, i'm willing to work with this one
No 
Well, that sucks
it wants you to use vent not force push with swords like i saw some people try
🤔
got it by chance idk how
Normal weapon push is probably more effective than FS push
ye force push is technically the attack
the stagger is the actual weapon push
but it does have stupid range
it can push most human enemies from 9m range
Now opens bulwarks too
what
Yes
damn
Tried it, didnt work :/
damn sefoni is so kind during the ascension rider
"oh my sweet hearts i wont let you guys get hurt"
Sad, didn't work because there weren't any enemies or why?
honestly what the hell is wrong with these daggers
plastic ahh daggers
I think their main use is killing oneself when the warp overtakes you, so it doesn’t really matter that they are slightly curved 
i think they were overtaken by the warp based on how they bend if you just look at them from another angle
these daggers will increase your GPU usage
i really wish this cosmetic had less tubes!!
the color scheme is fantastic but THE TUBES!!
Is that the new one? The one with slightly gilded chest plate and toobes on arms?
Yes
I like the tubes on that one
tubes can transport nutrients from the warp to you
lets hope it doesn't suck :v
tubes are the powerhouse of the warp
and Khan is driving in tubes...
it's vermin' time
and i suppose this will continue to be the look
Graphics card straight up died. I can't even do the restart graphics driver shortcut
skaven tunneled into your pc
i'm afraid it's terminal
F
whats the issue?
😔
lil chonky bird
it wont boot or what?
Uh okayish. Do you want me to check hardware
yer if you want to
Just say then I see if I want to do xD
id say start by taking the graphics card out to see if thats the issue
if it can boot without it then thats prolly it
Ah nah it can boot I just had to restart komputer
But ya no way man's taking out his GPU. Too much of a coward
yeah then take it to a guy then
if you can run it do a benchmark and save all your hardware component types
had a techie steal my ram as a kid once 😭
Woh
f
That's not good
yeah
Did he replace it with a visually identical one
get revenge
eh no way to prove it at the time
filled in the slot with an empty one
like i never saw ramless ram before
HAHAHAHHA
why you describe it like that xD
kat i need halp
is this ranged or melee headshots
both
ok thank
that talent is often considered the best in its row, regardless of how many people in game use something else like Cruelty...
yeah i saw myself take crulety and i didn't understand why
that look so much better
i assume cruelty for end game builds where your crit chance so much higher
what character is that on? god damh
waht difficulty should i play at? @patent steeple champion?
I mean, vermintide 2 crit damage suffers from the same problems as darktide crit damage (as in, its benefit is very minimal due to it only boosting the damage bonus from cirts, not the full damage)
champion methinks?
how do i unbind keys
actually exquisite huntress is meta
it is a 100% bonus to finesse times your headshot rate vs 50% bonus times your crit chance (which will not go above 20%)
I guess if you want to level up the character quickly you can do recruit on the Screaming Bell map and try to find all of the books (3 normal that take up heal slot, 2 grims that reduce max hp until the carrier dies and take up the 4th slot, aka potions)
means i can only take 1 normal and 1 grim?
also i was wrong on the 20%, since some attacks have extra crit chance
just remember to do it solo, as random recruit players are garbage and dont communicate with you.
still though
you can tell bots to take the other ones
exquisite huntress gives you damage from the front, cruelty gives you damage sometimes and you already have backstab damage
that way you are dangerous from any direction
which one is screaming bell?
yeah so weird peepo take cruelty
screaming bell is part of The Normals™
helmgart, do the 2nd highest row of levels until you nulock screaming bell
do i just have to do last one
dt player is viewing back at the vt2
no, i said 2nd highest, as in act 2...
rat bell
oh heh heh
let me google screaming bell guide
just land in that map and purge rats
btw is parry timing immediate
parry is the first 0.5s of entering block
if you mean for shade's parry dodge stealth yes
not really, the timing itself makes it kinda hard to get a lot of use from parrying...
how come recruit and not say veteran or something, just curious
all difficulties have same xp
recruit has minimal (and very weak) rats, and like kat said all difficulties give same xp so recruit screaming bell with all books is easiest to grind character levels with
books give more ( as in, more than the difficulty) xp when you carry all of the ones you find to the end (as well as have the potential of making the completion chest reward a bit better, but recruit chests are garbage, so if you just want better weapons do something higher than recruit)
is there anything you can't parry?
only the super big boss right
those tanky chaos wawrriros i still can parry
you can parry them but they will nuke your stamina
do you still have block when pushing
Not really
i mean technically boss overheads you can also parry but they still do damage
I often got hit, when I misplaced my push
Some boss overheads do, minotaur is weird in that regard
But that's beastmen for you, we do not like beastmen
'ate beastmen
Mino is the most persistant of the monsters I feel
potentially more so than the [REDACTED] gun
It is quite rough to get him to aggro someone else
it is quite rough that he switches targets mid combo
He's usually super persistant on one person whenever I have to fight him
But yeah, sometimes he just swaps out of nowhere
I still don't know what to do with all the pumpkins I've apparently won from being a lucky bleeder
don't eat them all at once
you will need provisions on the way to the bell
Keep the rations in case you get stuck in Norsca
do the elf and sienna eat as much as the others, i wonder
"someone save some for the dwarf, we know he'll eat anything"
Probably would murder a troll during his time on Norsca
can i ask bot to heal me?
To cook a proper stew
Bots will heal you if your health is low enough
Or you're on your last wound
u r blocking when pushing like in DT right
I don't think you are
bot don't want to pick it up... :v
hold t and tell them to do so
You have to order them to do it
ya i ping it
I NEEED someone to help me with this stupid ass going out with a bang penance
locate shotgunner and blow up in front of them
i found vt2 sound ques less distinct
all i hear is whispering
and more enemy types?
whispering? assassin rats?
the melee isn't "harder" but more so "different" and yeah i think like it was mentioned you get punished harder
turns out it was some fat magician
oh that
ah yes the fatshark leveling experience
also whats movement speed for
of course i dont mean it in the ltieral sense
like why would anyone take 20% ms speed after crit over 20% damage reduction
To move more faster
just soften up some shotgunners with staff basic bolt, walk up go kaboom get penance
Movement speed can be really good in a lot of games though
Be aware: trying it several times in one mission might make your team question your competence
Getting it by accident is the best way now
I did brain off smite bot for the penance I have no shame
If you don't take Shriek, you will pop some time or another
Take caze and play like you have shriek 
Just press w when it inevitably happens
Because movement and positioning is far more important than damage
im not talking about this game btw
you really don't want to get hit in vt2 esp on squishy classes
yeah but you need to frontline all the time
its not like dt where you can move around :v
and enemies are scattered
vt2 enemies just form one whole line
but i got my answer, apparnetly its just to set up for backstabs
getting hit for 20% less is good
and it was damage reduction as well :v
I mean without barkskin (so, chaos wastes) on higher end difficulty you'll likely just get gibbed
does movement speed make your dodges faster?
no
yeah one is generalist slightly tanky one is cool dps main character class
wait
can i just level to max and playu chaos wastes LOL @radiant frigate
since chaos wastes no need item right
you pick up item in game
you can also just play chaos wastes
Mercenary Kruber is pretty strong and fun to play
can u multiple class in chaos wastes
since power from levels also does nothing there, you would just be missing talents
no but you can get multiple talents from the same row as blessings
like cruelty and exquisite huntress together
or multiple thp talents
no
i do appreciate that about dt
you can just play whatever class you want
it is a bit of an issue when you play with other people who kind of just want to play one character but you can't both have it
But then triple psyker incident

Sounds like an easy win
Or a room 1 wipe
No middle ground
It's usually a quick wipe
I remember a game however, me as a Vet and 3 loner psykers, smoothest game of my life
Lol I got it with pure luck right after I put that
Psykers are THE glass cannons of this game. I tried doing that penance in a mission and kept getting grabbed by mutants and one-shot by Reavers or whatever they're called
Ragers you mean?
Mutants maybe
uh
maulers even lmao
if it's 1-shots
idk why I said mutants again I thought I was saying maulers
Maulers will def 1 shot a squishy psyker with their overhead
If a mutant can one shot you that's beyond glass cannon
paper skin glass bones situation
If mutant one shots you, I suggest grabbing some toughness nodes in talent tree, +toughness curios perhaps
Or in general, make your toughness gains better
triple psyker is a shitshow
4 psykers is an easy clear but 3 is bad
Unless the other class can provide space
DO NOT go on top of the elevators
is thuddo stuck
thuddo is stuck
Classical blunder
I can help getting him down
Too many rashuns?
Pass me a grenade
too fat yes
Друг is best ogryn name
More fat = more bullet proof to fight for emprah
Game handing good staff bases like candy today
truly these are the four classes of darktide https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/362/791/c78.jpg
promising
Does disrupt destiny work with voidstrike, it sounds like it should
Haven't messed with that combo yet
But this is better right?
Yes
Could craft em both though and see which gets more lucky
Droog I assume is Zealot 
it is hard to truly pinpoint which is which
the fighter should be vet but the rest are difficult
crazy ass can be zealot or psyker
If the Vet is me, it's totally fighter
Crazy ass is definitely Gunslinger Psyker
hell yeah
Semibricked
Eh, ill just save my 5k plaststeel from further disappointments, got already workable Voidstrike and im not that big fan of it anyway
Feels weird why they enforce it in vy2
well it's because the u5 are distinct characters
I mean that's easily fixed
small group as opposed to an entire warband
I’d prefer 1 of each class in most DT lobbies tbh, it’s kinda annoying when you get 3/4 single class teams
fuck that
eh
It's fine if you got different voices at least
play ogryn, get 3 ogryn. play vet, get 4 vet. shit gets old
I wish there was guaranteed Survivalist Veteran whenever i run Gunlugger Ogryn
3 psyker one zealot
I think they have this context because they wanted 1 of each class, rather than have the context first to decide the gameplay restrictions
the zealot remains captured until a boss spawns
the fanatic wreaks carnage! Likely out of error
I almost left yesterday game when i saw true level +4 loner knife zealot, but that was the best game of the night, didnt go wandering around solo
you mean, the freak
And from an outsider perspective VOC melee vet is so similar to zealot anyway
not same
ammo is not a problem even without survivalist
On Kickback it at times is
I see ogryns spamming rumvler when the team is handling horde fine, just that there is a big horde and I'm like ???
With Survivalist, can afford to spam Kickback into hordes too
They don't use it when it's needed the most I.e. mixed horde
Last game was bit painful as i ran down to 0 ammo once and took a while until found next ammo tin, meanwhile our Zealot holding that ammo box with full ammo 🤷♂️
thou shalt utilize melee
But Carneval, so ammo box was handy in the end event too, but we had found extra by that point which was on me
Honestly Gunlugger Ogryn with Club3 without any melee talents, still feels like it does easier and stronger melee than dedicated melee classes at times
So its not an issue really, but i just like to pewpew as much as possible
Most of the time i just grab and deploy the ammobox instanly
Literally no point saving it since ypu get ammo before the halfway point / end anyway
Pretty much yeah, just if everyone is almost filled then no point slapping it
Plus i get to joink the next ammo or medi faster for more penance progress
Yep, drop it for the penance if nothing else
I'll admit after doing the barrier penance throwing down bubble shields everywhere with all the cool down reducers has an appeal
Hey, can someone please suggest some good build that goes around bubble shield + smite? Like, good, useful for team and mission completion. No, I'm not going to spam Smite all mission.
toughness bubbles or regular bubbles? I have seen some psykers running regular bubbles in auric and I assume its only because their build cannot afford toughness bubbles
so i only played 1 game with new dd and 25 stacks but it was kinda bad
we all stick to more time?
i do at least
I do as well
I can give you a build for bubble and I can give you one for smite, both is overkill, imo
ty
when I tried auric maelstroms via LFG, the other people said both bubble and smite with purgatus is mandatory for psyker...
I got the toughness upgrade on mine
Smite and purgatus? 
My build is bubble/trauma/EP BB
"Mandatory" that's kinda bullshit
It makes it easier, yes
