psyker-class

[ornate hamlet]

the ds4 isnt even on my gunker anymore

[rich jolt]

I use different weapons for each loudout. I have 4-5 for each class and the only loudouts that share a weapon are my smite and chorus build

Cowboy revolver is goated

[potent echo]

Deimos gang

[ornate hamlet]

zarona?

[rich jolt]

I think? Idk i forget the names constantly

[ornate hamlet]

ads or braced

[rich jolt]

The one you fan

Braced

[ornate hamlet]

oh man of taste

[potent echo]

That's agripinna

[rich jolt]

I just need a big cowboy hat and cigar now

[ornate hamlet]

though this is psyker so the version of the cigar is a blunt and the cowboy hat is actually clown hair

[potent echo]

Are las revolvers a thing

[rich jolt]

Laslok pistols exist so probably

[potent echo]

I forgot all about the lasloks

Is there even a reason why

[rich jolt]

Because thats what the god emperor intended

[ornate hamlet]

i remember saying this in a stream but one weapon i would love just for the lols is a shotgun that just shoots railway ties like 6 of em on ogryn

[potent echo]

Rail gun

[rich jolt]

Give ogryn the junk jet from fallout

[ornate hamlet]

i was thinking more blunderbuss

[rich jolt]

Just cram stuff into the barrel

[ornate hamlet]

its an ogryn

you cant give em something complicated

[rich jolt]

The only problem i see is that theyd probably break the barrel by accident alot

[ornate hamlet]

prepackaged shots

[rich jolt]

Gotta really re inforce that thing

[ornate hamlet]

no messuring just stuff

[rich jolt]

OH. I thought you were talking about just putting stuff in the barrel

[ornate hamlet]

lmao, i think the ogryn can just throw random stuff to the same effect

the rock

[rich jolt]

Likely. And with less hassle

I still think ogryn should have a blitz where he picks up corpses and tosses them

[ornate hamlet]

i just want a gun that pins people to wall not gonna lie

[rich jolt]

Like a crossbow?

[ornate hamlet]

hence the railway ties idea though, likely just mist them but still

[rich jolt]

Could get some chunkier enemies to stick

Make wall art with maulers

[ornate hamlet]

the amount of jank that would cause with ragdolls

arms stretching across the map

[rich jolt]

Itd be like the hounds all over again

[ornate hamlet]

oh the fun times

[hoary leaf]

yuck did my own checking to confirm it and yeah DD doesnt show on the hot bar :( hope they fix that but it seems like that issue is a month old already

[ornate hamlet]

i stopped caring about it once i knew i still was getting the buff

but i hope they fix it

at first i thought dd just wasnt workin lmao, mah dmg

[spice veldt]

guess it's the 10 slot limit for the buffs UI

[lethal lagoon]

It's been an issue since patch 13, it was just more rare

Not rare for me

[potent echo]

Buff UI mods get around that by adding more bars I suppose

[supple dock]

buff brainburst it's too clunky to use

[potent echo]

Brain burst should suppress around it

Who wouldn't be scared if your friend's head just explodes

[supple dock]

TRUE

Actually

It takes like 3 BB to kill a crusher right?

Could you imagine what that would look like?

What it'd sound like?

[potent echo]

We need @lethal lagoon pepes

[lethal lagoon]

[tall gazelle]

I'd take a modifier that allowed it to do slightly less damage but hit multiple targets. As of now I feel like it's hardly competition for either of the other abilities. The crystals are crazy strong for elites and kill way more faster

[potent echo]

Assail....?

[lethal lagoon]

#psyker-class message

[supple dock]

BB is actually insanely powerful lmao

If you find issue with it it's legitimately just a skill issue. BB is wild

[tall gazelle]

Yes assail

[lethal lagoon]

Assial =
BB =

[supple dock]

LOL

[lethal lagoon]

Smite =

[supple dock]

smite =

[tall gazelle]

Smite is my favorite

everytime I've brought BB anything I aim at is dead before it charges

[supple dock]

@tall gazelle If the people you're playing with are killing faster than this you have an insane team

[tall gazelle]

True in a few cases actually

[lethal lagoon]

No one ever watches my video

[supple dock]

Yeah..

[supple dock]

By "insane team" I mean "physically impossible to outshoot this speed"

[tall gazelle]

I should say, I typically play on Heresy so maybe it's different on higher difficulties

[supple dock]

Watch the video

please

watch it

just watch it

[lethal lagoon]

[supple dock]

just watch the video

watch it

please

[hoary leaf]

oh yeah, played a match right now and it was there for it, so guess its a sometimes it does sometimes it doesnt work situation

wonder why

[tall gazelle]

Oh I didn't realize that was what the ping was for. I'm at work, sorry

[lethal lagoon]

Discord on company time is the best discord usage

[tall gazelle]

Amen.

[lethal lagoon]

[tall gazelle]

I work 12 hour night shifts In a factory so

[supple dock]

If you don't have 100% uptime you're literally stealing company time 🤓

lmao they can suck a dick

STOP

[lethal lagoon]

[tall gazelle]

Hoenstly yeah. We calculate our efficiency at the end of a shift and I could care less what it is lol and tbf they don't care either as long as you write a reason for it being lower than 85%

But anyway, smite good.

[lethal lagoon]

Smite with shriek... right?

[ornate hamlet]

yeah smite is the best one, i dont like it out of principle... but brain burst is crazy good, assail is strong to but you cant get the cdr on special elite kill

[supple dock]

unfortunately

Smite scales inversely with team skill

[ornate hamlet]

unfortunately

smite exists

[supple dock]

lmaoo

[tall gazelle]

I prefer using the bubble shield, I like being team support whenever I can. DPS be damned.

[supple dock]

smite is great though

but if you're playing with a cracked team

smite becomes that much less useful

[ornate hamlet]

smite would of made a good staff with higher dmg

as a blitz

i wanna rip my hair out

ppl misuse it

and then when they figure it out they abuse it

smite shiek

[tall gazelle]

Whats wrong with it exactly?

[ornate hamlet]

oh boy, on the lower end people are brain dead and are smiting poxwalkers and just generally being a detriment. on the high end people run it with a build and with zero effort clear a map

smite shiek with surge

[hearty dagger]

To be fair there's like a sweet spot of teammate skill with smite

Either they're too stupid and ignore the 5 ragers you're smiting

Or they're too cracked and those 5 ragers are dead by time you got your smite charged up

[supple dock]

this is what I mean by it scales inversely

[hearty dagger]

That's why i run an autogun on my smite build.
If you see me shooting things, that means i'm very disappointed

[tall gazelle]

Oh I see. I use smite surge but never shriek. I just use smite because it CCs well and often in heresy lobbies, you get a you get some players that need all the help they can get lol

[hearty dagger]

Nah it doesn't really scale inversely

The scale of smite usefulness and teammate skill looks kinda like a really fat guy lying on his back

[supple dock]

[cosmic sigil]

https://tenor.com/view/pepe-peppo-gif-22663555

smite is a shriek enabler

[supple dock]

shriek is a smite enabler

[hearty dagger]

. --------------

---

Discord you wanker

[ornate hamlet]

the scale of smite usefulness is based off you build not skill, the occasions that a normal smite is useful is so rare that you have to make a build to get consistant value

[lyric burrow]

yeah surge would have been cool

[ornate hamlet]

yeah exept its single target

[supple dock]

not YOUR skill, teammate skill

[hearty dagger]

This is what the smite/team skill scale i mentioned looks like

[cosmic sigil]

https://tenor.com/view/pepe-wink-pepe-wink-gif-18805786

i am not a smyker, i am a shrieker

[ornate hamlet]

yeah ment to say your skill mybad

you right

but nothing to do with teammates

[hearty dagger]

I'm one of the disrupt destiny running maniacs.

[cold ivy]

i'm unironically too unskilled to use smite

[hearty dagger]

Either i one shot ragers and melt crushers with the funny poke sword or die trying

[cold ivy]

every time i try, there's a single poxwalker behind me that interrupts my cast

[ornate hamlet]

nah, just not aproaching it right

[supple dock]

knowing when to use smite isn't skill it's knowledge

Mechanically it's braindead since it's like RMB + LMB

But WHEN to use it is where people choke

[lethal lagoon]

[supple dock]

make sense idiot

[cosmic sigil]

when i use a chaxe i kinda like the fact that the crushers are not moving around trying to rape me

[cold ivy]

nowadays i use surge for single target and illisi for hordes, and only smite when we walk around a corner and bump into 6 crushers

[supple dock]

that's pretty much correct

[hearty dagger]

Good place to use smite:
10 FUCKING CRUSHERS/Mixed Horde
Bad place to use smite:
A singular poxwalker

[ornate hamlet]

the smite is better when your in the corner trapped by 6 crushers

better to just kill the crushers

[cosmic sigil]

what about pox bullying, it's fun

[lethal lagoon]

Trusting your team to kill the crushers is potentially problematic.

[supple dock]

However since I have smite/shriek for hordes I use a dagger because swag

[ornate hamlet]

there you go

[cosmic sigil]

like punching snipers

[hearty dagger]

There are significantly more fun ways of pox bullying.

[supple dock]

You give them a full smite/shriek combo and wait, if nothing happens you use surge

[hearty dagger]

That also take less time.

I once saw a dumbass smiteker run a full smite/shriek rotation on a single fucking poxwalker

[supple dock]

LOL

that's beautiful

mans is committed

[hearty dagger]

Speaking of

WHY DO ALL OF THE STUPID SMITEKERS RUN THE DEIMOS

IF THEY'RE NEVER GOING TO FUCKING USE IT.

[ornate hamlet]

lmao

[hearty dagger]

AT THAT POINT JUST TAKE THE KNIFE SO YOU CAN RUN AROUND.

[cosmic sigil]

probably regenerating toughness

[ornate hamlet]

they dont know how either

[lethal lagoon]

That might of been me, look at my weakspots and crits.

[supple dock]

You are every braindead player we bitch about here

[lethal lagoon]

0 crits, 0 weakspots meta

[hearty dagger]

Manufactorum mission, we just got out of the elevator
Bro was at full toughness

[ornate hamlet]

i have the second most weakspot hits in my last game and i was running purg

[lethal lagoon]

I ran a smite only build at level 1 too, it was great.

[ornate hamlet]

that name

brings me pain

BigBrainEnergy

BigBurstEnergy

YourBrainOnWarp is pretty decent

[cosmic sigil]

BrainyNotBrawny

[hearty dagger]

Brain Burst is just giving the heretics Brain Implosion Energy (10 thousand grams of pure caffeine) because they can't commit heresy if their heart stops

[lethal lagoon]

I feel like I could survive 10gs of caffiene

[hearty dagger]

[lethal lagoon]

Oh yeah, my lethal dose is like 18gs, not counting my super high tolerence.

Oh wait you wrote 10 thousand grams, it confused my brain

I guess you say I had a

BrainFreeze

Nah that's lame

[hearty dagger]

lmao

Honestly psyker main anatomy is like

20% caffeine

80% copium because fatshark doesn't add any new force weapons with the update

[lethal lagoon]

New staff is in 2 weeks

[supple dock]

A psyker snorts a line and the nearest person's head explodes

[lethal lagoon]

Marks my words

[ornate hamlet]

its the beam staff

exept 40k its a lazer

gimme lazer

[lethal lagoon]

Space wizards without beams are just Space

[ornate hamlet]

make it crit

or burn

but not base dmg just hold on em

make it fun

[lethal lagoon]

I love the feel of recon so I have faith

[supple dock]

scaling with the time held?

[ornate hamlet]

that would be burn

[supple dock]

naaah

[ornate hamlet]

yeah more stacks more dmg

same result

[supple dock]

well yes, but a different mechanic to make it unique

[ornate hamlet]

and works with talents that exist

[supple dock]

Because we have enough fire

like. a lot of it

[potent echo]

DD with beam staff

[ornate hamlet]

we could always use more fire

i love fire

https://tenor.com/view/chiquichico-gif-26004262

[supple dock]

I think a beam staff that does increasing damage the longer you hold it on a target with bonus damage to unyielding would be sick

[ornate hamlet]

if it did that also make it a crit stick

[supple dock]

yeeeee

[ornate hamlet]

thats if they ever added that

they wont

[potent echo]

We need some of that copium

[ornate hamlet]

off to the bin of hopes and dreams with the brettonnian longsword and solomode

[potent echo]

Bret forcesword

[ornate hamlet]

brett heavysword

if i see a bret power sword i will throw a brick

🧱

[potent echo]

Bret powersword thats probably weaker than the mk6

How do you ever top the mk6

[ornate hamlet]

how do you top the bret

[potent echo]

Bret doesn't cleave 4 bruisers in 1 swing

Unless

[ornate hamlet]

instead of the lady blessing our sword its the omnisiah

[potent echo]

Imagine taking GK horizontal swipe

[ornate hamlet]

virtue of confidence

i loved that one

too bad virtue of audacity existed

oh and impetuous knight was completely useless

[ornate hamlet]

make it a zealot ability

and have it buff based off amount killed

would be nuts

never happening

[potent echo]

DT's F are more lore friendly and lower power

But also nah, peeshout

[ornate hamlet]

lmao invisibility

[potent echo]

Stelf

[ornate hamlet]

in melee with a crusher 1 second and vanish

[potent echo]

But cannot phase through mobs

[ornate hamlet]

it has to be magic or heretical technology

less than a foot away from a dude

and you disapear, no amount of training doing that

our characters are batman apearently

[potent echo]

Meanwhile the actual wizard doesn't have stealth

[ornate hamlet]

good

nor should we

stealth is a little wack

which is funny because when i started this game i loved infiltrate

mostly because it wasnt shout

but its also disgustingly strong

[hearty dagger]

Tbf it's kinda funny how we have soulblaze

But so little synergy with soulblaze

At most it's get warp charges or get more soulblaze

[ornate hamlet]

or crit increase warp dmg or warp dmg on nonwarp kill

also soul blaze on elite kill

[hearty dagger]

That's not direct soulblaze synergy though

Yeah

[ornate hamlet]

wildfire sucks

[hearty dagger]

Honestly something like Mercy Killer but for Soulblaze would make it significantly more viable

[ornate hamlet]

also all our melees our at best mediocre at crowds

[hearty dagger]

The Illisi in question:

[ornate hamlet]

yeah

its not that great

[spice veldt]

the fact that the purg staff exists means that it limits how much you can make synergies with soulblaze

[ornate hamlet]

i said it

[spice veldt]

cuz you can just spread absurd amounts of soulblaze

[hearty dagger]

Honestly they shouldn't hold back that hard with soulblaze

Yeah sure we have a staff but so many nodes on the skill tree are just ass because they're too scared of it

[spice veldt]

you pretty much have to invent another "soul-something" DoT

[hearty dagger]

Fuck it, give Soulblaze passive Cerebral Hemmorhaging from the old psyker skill tree

If something is on fire with soulblaze, depending on how many stacks of soulblaze, it takes more damage from everything else

[ornate hamlet]

i just wish it was easier to see how much sould blaze was on someone

[supple dock]

M O D S

[ornate hamlet]

i think a mod does that but eh i dont wanna

nooooo

[supple dock]

Why add quality of life WHEN YOU CAN GET THE WORK DONE FOR FREE

[spice veldt]

a mod that shows the highest soulblaze stack near you would be neat

since debuff indicator is overkill

[hearty dagger]

Ah yes i sure do love SEEING FUCK ALL BECAUSE MY ENTIRE SCREEN IS SOULBLAZE INDICATORS

[supple dock]

[ornate hamlet]

yeah i dont want that

lmao

[supple dock]

Or even the average number in the area?

[hearty dagger]

At this point i've just started reading everything i say in Male Loner Psyker voice

[ornate hamlet]

like i wish it was kind of a stage thing where the fire on them was brighter of dimmer based off stacks

but noo numbers you want

[hearty dagger]

Fellas, here's an idea

Replace Wildfire with what i just said

[ornate hamlet]

i heard remove wildfire

[hearty dagger]

You take that node, Soulblaze now makes enemies take more damage from everything that isn't soulblaze

[ornate hamlet]

can we get rid of void first

[hearty dagger]

Void what?

[ornate hamlet]

oh i just hate void

[hearty dagger]

Do you mean Voidstrike?

[ornate hamlet]

yeah

the stick

with the big balls

O.o

[hearty dagger]

Maybe we should get rid of you IN A BOX FLOATING DOWN THE TORRENT

^Voidstrike main

[ornate hamlet]

yes

[supple dock]

https://tenor.com/NyMO.gif

[ornate hamlet]

void strike dumb, you never have to switch off the thing and inf cleave cringe

and range too

[hearty dagger]

->inf cleave

[ornate hamlet]

they all do it

[hearty dagger]

->never have to switch off of it

[ornate hamlet]

besides surge

[hearty dagger]

Have you ever seen a voidstrike staff?

Because i can assure you, it does not have infinite cleave

[ornate hamlet]

several

it does

full charge it

[hearty dagger]

Then why does it explode on a crusher's face?

[ornate hamlet]

because thats armor

thats different

[hearty dagger]

Not really

Vet Power Sword gets giga cleave and can pass through that just fine

So does illisi

[ornate hamlet]

go to a horde of gunners, bruisers, ragers and shoot them

and it hits all of them

[spice veldt]

it's ~10 cleave

i forget if it's 10 or 12

but a full-charged vstrike ball does have finite cleave

[hearty dagger]

You know what? I will

Just to make you angry that voidstrike exists

[ornate hamlet]

eh so does plasma and power sword

[hearty dagger]

Brother

Plasma penetrates walls

[ornate hamlet]

i know

[spice veldt]

plasma has >52.5 and powersword has sunder to elevate it to >40 cleave

[hearty dagger]

You can't bring up plasma in a cleave discussion

Plasma just has YES for a cleave stat

[ornate hamlet]

and it used to have none, should of kept it that way

[spice veldt]

psword is 11.7 cleave at 80% cleave targets and sunder is 4x of that

[hearty dagger]

Nah, keep it the way it is

[ornate hamlet]

btw where do you get the numbers

[hearty dagger]

But remove the safety from explosion

[ornate hamlet]

i cant find them anywhere

and ive looked

[hearty dagger]

If that shit hits 100, kablooie the vet

[spice veldt]

weapon calculator has them for the psword but not sure for the plasmagun

[hearty dagger]

Hey Don look

Your favorite :D

[spice veldt]

oh weapon calc has wrong values for the LMB

probably because it's assuming 100% charge

plasma gets 1 cleave for every 1% of charge

and LMB shoots at 52.5% charge

hence 52.5 cleave

[ornate hamlet]

im not 10, you just running the voidstrike doesnt piss me off... if you werent running it 10 other slobbering weirdos are

[hearty dagger]

Oh no, not me running it

Behold the roll

[ornate hamlet]

yeah i got one

[spice veldt]

weapon calculator in case you don't have the link saved https://dt.wartide.net/calc/

[hearty dagger]

The most braindead voidstrike imaginable

[ornate hamlet]

the one shot crushers void

well 2shot

but 1 click

[ornate hamlet]

actually you got screwed a little on that roll

the crit blessing is better than charge rate

[hearty dagger]

Nah i wanted a flurry one myself if that's what you mean

It was way too slow on the crit staff

So i made a flurry one and put surge on it instead

Since i get a guaranteed crit at 5 headshots anyway

[ornate hamlet]

so your play is volume rather than consistancy

well it works

[hearty dagger]

In a way, it's still consistency

I'm slapping them with a shit load of damage

And with how many balls i'm throwing, one of them is bound to be a crit through sheer probability

[ornate hamlet]

well the whole point of surge is break points and boss dmg, the flirry sure helps in the boss dmg but the crushers arnt getting one shot as much

[hearty dagger]

Well yes

But with how fast i can get a full charge i can just put them on their ass

[ornate hamlet]

only issue i see is peril but peril is barely an issue

[hearty dagger]

Assuming i have the range

Peril's not an issue

[ornate hamlet]

yeah its peril

[hearty dagger]

See, if i overperil, i become my final voidstrike

[ornate hamlet]

lmao

[hearty dagger]

And lose my auric no death streak

Because i'm playing with 3 zealots

And we all know that zealots do not know teamplay whatsoever

[tall gazelle]

Can I see the stats on the knife there? Just out of curiosity

[hearty dagger]

I saw a zealot die because another zealot walked past him, while there was nothing there

[ornate hamlet]

the best kind of zealots

[hearty dagger]

And he was just in a net

[ornate hamlet]

hmm this is auric?

[hearty dagger]

Here you go

[ornate hamlet]

what region?

[tall gazelle]

Ty

[hearty dagger]

EU

[ornate hamlet]

oh im NA

ppl here have 2 more braincells

[hearty dagger]

Don't fuck with no EU zealot

[ornate hamlet]

still dumb

[hearty dagger]

They got no brain cell

[tall gazelle]

Damn man what a stat distribution.

[hearty dagger]

The only time i've seen a zealot pick up anyone is when i run zealot

Or it's a shroudfield zealot

So far it seems like

CTW Zealot: You're going to get picked up but just barely, or you'll die because they zoom past you
Shroudfield Zealot: 50/50 on whether you die or get picked up so fast you don't even realize you got picked up
Chorus Zealot: You will die

Because Chorus zealots seem to think staring at you with a crucifix picks you up

[tall gazelle]

Zealot is my favorite class and i use my knife speed just to pick people up. I also run with the uhhh pulse ability whatever the hell it's called for support

[ornate hamlet]

the god emperor will decide yee fate

[hearty dagger]

Chorus

[tall gazelle]

Ye I'm bad with names

[hearty dagger]

I have an even funnier knife on my zealot iirc

[tall gazelle]

[plucky flax]

Zealot pray you stay alive

[hearty dagger]

Zealot sends thoughts and prayers

[plucky flax]

Any choirer?

[ornate hamlet]

we are a psyker, he is praying we die quicker

[tall gazelle]

I kinda wish chorus could pick people up but I get that's sort of a vet thing

[hearty dagger]

I don't know what kinda psyker you are but zealots actually like me

Probably because of my willingness to res people in the middle of actual hell

[ornate hamlet]

my guy is a loner

hes barely getting along

im shocked he hasnt been shot yet

[hearty dagger]

A zealot player straight up told me that i'm the best psyker he's ever seen

[tall gazelle]

Tbf most zealot voice lines call psykers freaks so they probably do hope they die

[ornate hamlet]

yeah i got that too

"you are ah different then most"

something like that

[tall gazelle]

Built different

[ornate hamlet]

built crazy

and the ability to see hell

and 1 blue eye

[tall gazelle]

Blue eyes best eyes

I wish there were more unique customizations depending on your home world. And more customizations in general I suppose.

[ornate hamlet]

give me the ability to make my guy look more disfigured

my guy is a messed up face on a normal dude

[hearty dagger]

Nah actual player, not the zealot

Also that's a cutthroat line

[ornate hamlet]

no the judge

zealot

[supple dock]

me and my friend were called the most unconventional psykers they've seen

Because we're turbo aggro

lmao

[ornate hamlet]

i got told i was the only guy on the team he liked

[normal sequoia]

Judge zealots have been a bit more nicer than the other two to my psyker. But that still doesn't say much imo

Love how the Professional Vets just hate psykers tho lmao

Unless you are Savant

[ornate hamlet]

was a wack game

[normal sequoia]

Because enforcer blah blah

[ornate hamlet]

the savant is the only decent psyker, the rest are insane (decent for the emperium their all good voices)

[normal sequoia]

Ya I been running a fem Loner on my Smitesyker and she's kinda bonkers

Can't wait to hear the Seer next

[ornate hamlet]

i run the male loner psyker and havent changed

[normal sequoia]

I was kinda put off by how mega nasally he sounded in the selection screen. But then ingame when he speaks in a normal tone, he actually sounds cool?

[ornate hamlet]

the nasally ones are great

hes usually pissed

or sarcastic

or both

[normal sequoia]

I love how the Loners sarcastically antagonize the more pro Imperium characters lol

[ornate hamlet]

well loner is a guy who knows whats up and just hates it

[normal sequoia]

I gotta wonder how they still didn't grt executed by more of the zealous teammates, given what they say

[ornate hamlet]

but has no choice but to go along

usefull

[normal sequoia]

Guess Grendyl is really running a mega radical Inquisition warband

[ornate hamlet]

our psyker does some highlevel stuff so probably just we are useful

[normal sequoia]

Indeed

Does the male loner also maniacally yell WORSHIP ME OR DIE

[ornate hamlet]

little power mad

warp does that

entirely in character

[normal sequoia]

What warp does to a mf

[ornate hamlet]

i mean every one of them says their losing control

its not something nice if you have to control it

magic is a bad deal

[normal sequoia]

I do appreciate how while the Loner is not exactly pro Imperium, they still hate the heretics more lol

[ornate hamlet]

because loner seems to how incredible knowledge on what has happened, like some warp foresight past sight shenanigans.

he doesnt exactly hate the emporer but knows hes a corpse on a thrown

[supple dock]

He also seems to have some kind of prophetic abilities

[ornate hamlet]

yeah loner is a crazy powerful psyker, seer is gonna get everone killed

swear his beloved is a demon

[supple dock]

People think its a tzeench demon

[ornate hamlet]

and he hates nurgle

yeah

seems like it

[supple dock]

Which, if you're gonna be swayed by any of the chaos gods to do things

tzeench would be the best one

[ornate hamlet]

its tzeench he will turn you into a spawn and chuckle

[supple dock]

....maybe

Well I was gonna say

He'll make you piss off the other chaos gods

[ornate hamlet]

tzeench is just a reddit troll

well no he made the the reddit troll

[hearty dagger]

One side wants to feed loner to the emperor

The other side wants to turn him into a daemonhost or horrific flesh abomination

Bro's just looking out for his best interests

this is how to build blazing trauma right?

need to finnd blazing spirit IV still though

[radiant frigate]

there is no blazing spirit IV

[supple dock]

I'm the living embodiement of blazing spirit if you know what i mean

[jaunty tiger]

o

nevermind then

good to know i wasted 2k plasteel

lul

so that's it then

[supple dock]

This is pretty much as good as you're gonna get

nice find!

[potent echo]

Good that you know before it became 20k wasted

[jaunty tiger]

ya

[vestal fulcrum]

jfc Atlas gets me every time with that sussy emoji

aaaaa

[potent echo]

Has a mod ever stepped into psyker chat

[supple dock]

generally only when asked

[potent echo]

I know ogins and vets have some mods there chatting

[supple dock]

we govern ourselves pretty much

I had to call a mod in here last week cause a guy was going in on me and wouldn't explain why

Then there was that guy who got mad at me for using a word he didn't think existed..

Lemme find that actually it's fucking hilarious

[normal sequoia]

What was the word lmao

[supple dock]

#psyker-class message

Actually?

It was the same guy both times

Dude's just an asshole lmao

[quartz barn]

Prob also has to do with the fact that psyker has a much higher skill ceiling than anything else in the game

[potent echo]

Damn he went on a whole tear about a word

[supple dock]

Right?

[potent echo]

Is this ironic

[lethal lagoon]

I've seen a couple ask psyker questions.

But otherwise it's the wild west as long as you don't post kirby gifs.

[spice veldt]

i know that ogryn has hank and whatnot but the other mods (skele, incan) usually hang out in zealot

[potent echo]

I'm lucky I've actually become immune to that

[quartz barn]

Would explain why theyre not in here then, i usually talk shit about zealots lmao

[potent echo]

Nah zealots talk the most shit about zealots

Same for most chats tbh

Except ogryn chat, because nobody can hate ogryns

[spice veldt]

me talking shit about psykers 😎

maining a class gives you the privilege to be discriminatory towards it

[marble crater]

Good, I had 3 zealots in my game yesterday and somehow none of them wanted to rush the enemy ranged and get into melee, it was awful

[potent echo]

Ah ogryn chat had anti shield mains for quite some time

No planting allowed

[lethal lagoon]

Planting a shield is like running smite bubble

[potent echo]

I revived one knife zealot and they ran forward into 3 flamers and died instantly

[potent echo]

Kinda not even close tbh

[lethal lagoon]

It is when they do under 200k damage in a mael

[marble crater]

He had the right idea at least

[potent echo]

Forward = good

[lethal lagoon]

There's something I can apperciate about a Zealot that lives to his own truth

[marble crater]

Better than hiding behind the psyker, I didn't even run bubble to protect us

[potent echo]

This is the cursed ass torrent assassination map

[lethal lagoon]

I will say though, I once had an Ogryn save a match by planting in a choke point until he died.

The one and only time

[potent echo]

The steps leading into the huge building/room

That area is always cursed

[lethal lagoon]

You chasm>?

[supple dock]

OH

#psyker-class message

Found the other instance

[potent echo]

No the other one

[supple dock]

Dude just goes IN on me when I ask a question

[potent echo]

What happened to him anyway

[supple dock]

I have 0 clue

Then I try to figure out where the issue is because I don't want bad blood

And he just starts attacking me

[potent echo]

Angy

[lethal lagoon]

Oh the steps, I get you, yeah that whole section

[potent echo]

There's two small watch bunkers and a gate yea

[marble crater]

What steps, I need to know

[potent echo]

If you are stuck there with all the specials coming from behind, a room full of shooters inside

[marble crater]

Oh steps leading into a hallway on the right side and then up a ramp on the left again?

[potent echo]

Uh through a gate, up the steps, into a huge lobby with staircase on the left

[marble crater]

Hmm

I just need to learn map names

[potent echo]

Idk if thinking backwards will be better

[supple dock]

Chasm Station HL-16-11 doesn't explain the map enough for you?

[potent echo]

The only way I know maps is thinking about from start to end

[lethal lagoon]

He's talking about Magi

[potent echo]

Yea magi

[supple dock]

I was going for the most ambiguous map name

[lethal lagoon]

That's literally all of them

[supple dock]

The most

You fucking ape

[vestal fulcrum]

Chasm Station = Logistratum Ass

[lethal lagoon]

But like chasm station ends in a train station

You know what

That's the worst example

[potent echo]

Thinking backwards it's

Assassination boss > elevator up > prison > prison > cathedral room > big flat room > room with stairs > building entrance

[supple dock]

lmao

[lethal lagoon]

You literally gave the worst example

[supple dock]

The NAME

N A M E

[lethal lagoon]

[normal sequoia]

Ogryns are consistently chill in chat or ingame. So when you meet that one or two toxic oggies, they unfortunately then end up sticking with you more

[potent echo]

Oubliette magistratumthesenuts

[lethal lagoon]

It's Magi Ou

Not Ou Magi

[potent echo]

I don't

[lethal lagoon]

[potent echo]

Care

[lethal lagoon]

[normal sequoia]

Lmao, didn't even know that was an actual word either. Really funny seeing someone lose their marbles over it lol

[supple dock]

Even if it wasn't a "real" word

[potent echo]

A pedant, in real life

[supple dock]

The parts of the word make sense

[potent echo]

We know one or two

[normal sequoia]

Real life Agitator behaviour

[supple dock]

And the funny thing is?

I have a history in medicine

[marble crater]

In or with

[supple dock]

both are correct

well

mostly "in"

Not with

[marble crater]

[supple dock]

With medicine implies I'm working with actual medicine, in medicine means I work alongside it

[lethal lagoon]

[supple dock]

So I technically worked alongside medicine

[lethal lagoon]

More like you worked alongside deez nuts

[potent echo]

I have experience with medicine

[supple dock]

starts going off about the "etymology of words" like he's special for it

[potent echo]

I gobble them

[supple dock]

[potent echo]

[marble crater]

I was more going along taking drugs, because we psykers sure take a lot I imagine, but that works too

[supple dock]

But that's enough of that for now

[supple dock]

lmao i ACTUALLY WORKED IN HEALTHCARE

[marble crater]

Yes yes

[supple dock]

ok so

Considering taking like 10 edibles

For whatever reason this strain doesn't do shit for me

And it's frustrating

mostly because expensive

And it's just like AAAAA

MY MONEY

[marble crater]

You could buy cosmetics instead

[supple dock]

bro I thought you meant irl for a second

and I was about to throw hands

[marble crater]

[upper sun]

yes buy lipstick

[lethal lagoon]

[supple dock]

[lethal lagoon]

[marble crater]

You missed the : at the end

[cinder moon]

“these edibles ain’t shit”

massively overdoses
“Oooooooooh shit”

[lethal lagoon]

That's what the was for

[supple dock]

LOL I fucking wish

I mean I don't

Too much is horrifying

[upper sun]

you cant od on brownies

[cinder moon]

at that point you lay down and try to hold on

you can’t ld50 on thc but you can still overdose

[supple dock]

So there's proper overdosing which is "so much it causes a physical danger of your wellbeing" and overdosing as in "I think I'm a dead man walking."

overdose as in "more than a dose should be for optimal effects from the drug"

[lethal lagoon]

[cinder moon]

eating 10 brownies definitely qualifies

[supple dock]

IT DOESNT DO SHIT THO

I'm SO mad

[cinder moon]

bunk brownies

[supple dock]

It's the strain itself

Doesn't work on me very well, which isn't not expected

I process chemicals terribly

[cinder moon]

take a t break

[supple dock]

This is after one

[cinder moon]

take a longer one

[supple dock]

I was off for like 2-3 months

[cinder moon]

https://tenor.com/view/cheech-and-chong-labrador-gif-23130574

[supple dock]

Like I said. I process drugs terribly. I can't take benzos cause they cause me to go into hyper aggressive states or I start gouging out my own flesh with my nails becuse of it

So it's usually the strain that I have to be very cautious about

[cinder moon]

careful, sibling. don’t listen to the voices! except my beloved’s, of course

[supple dock]

Fear me, FEAR ME. ....oops.

[supple dock]

but..

but that's not the s-..

..

[magic edge]

Haven’t played in a couple months. Is smite still worth getting?

[supple dock]

Smite good

Using on 3 poxwalkers is not

[potent echo]

It's fine too

With EP you kill them

[restive ice]

epic penetration

[potent echo]

Helyea

[supple dock]

when it's EP and not ERP

[quartz barn]

Would highly recommend using smite for the ep penance

Bonus points if you're playing with hunting grounds mod

Playstyle is kinda afk tho

[potent echo]

My brain wiring is telling me

EP smite is alot more fun than trauma

Idk why

Must be the lightning effects

And also how good it is in dealing with mixed hordes

And shooters

[quartz barn]

Still pref void or trauma tho

You actually get to play instead of sitting there holding left and rightclick

[potent echo]

Everytime I try to fight shooters with trauma I start crying uncontrollably

[quartz barn]

Although my perception is scuffed because im good at dodging in place

So i dont get interrupted and lose ep stacks for no reason

[potent echo]

Smite still needs you to position first

It doesn't stun everything immediately

[quartz barn]

I dont xd

[potent echo]

So at least there's some gameplay

If not you get shanked

[quartz barn]

Not if you can dodge with the i frames alone

[potent echo]

Smite had like

3 dodges

Poo

[quartz barn]

But that needs practise

Also 3 dodges is fine

[potent echo]

Until it isn't

[lethal lagoon]

Just dodge slide forward, push your team onwards!

[potent echo]

[quartz barn]

You only need them until the stun kicks in

After that you just need to spin around a bit to cover more angles

[supple dock]

This works until you've dodged into cover only to realize you're getting dead angled by 2 other shooters that you didn't notice

[plucky flax]

Simply don't use that bad staff.

[potent echo]

Sometimes you have to look back and forth because 2 bruisers are spaced enough that you can't get them in your screen at once, but then you used all your dodges trying to dodge backwards

[supple dock]

Dude 2 bruisers are the final boss for psyker

idc how braindead you guys say psyker is at all

2 bruisers will put you in the fuckin ground

[spice veldt]

trauma is more interesting to me cuz i only have to cast it once at periodic intervals to keep enemies stunned and then do other stuff to do damage

[upper sun]

1 bruiser behind you every room or one stealth mauler?

[rigid sky]

1 is fine

1 just donks your toughness

no harm done

[supple dock]

^

[rigid sky]

it's the second one that kills you

[spice veldt]

bruisers are fine nowadays at least since they got nerfed from ~100 damage back to the usual ~60

[rigid sky]

Huh, maybe I've been feeling that

still, that's the reason why I'm so much of a proponent of maximising toughness regen on psyker

[supple dock]

stamina regen stronger

[spice veldt]

and also fire nerfs which have been of great assets to toughness propagandists

[supple dock]

fuck extra toughness go with base 90

or 75 if you're based af

and don't use keystones

[rigid sky]

tbh I kinda feel like I care less about the total toughness amount

[supple dock]

yeah having that 100% is important

[rigid sky]

more about the rate of regen and the amount of instances where you aren't regenerating

[spice veldt]

toughness matters to me cuz i like to hittrade and maximize dps instead of taking defensive measures

and being in stupid positions that increase the chance where i get hit

[supple dock]

psyker

[spice veldt]

and also not paying attention to anything around me

[supple dock]

hittrade

[rigid sky]

I agree with that, but I prefer to focus the regen for that

I mean

I take toughness curios anyway

[spice veldt]

yeah i stack toughness curios + take the basket

[rigid sky]

and I take most of the freebie toughness talents on most builds

[spice veldt]

i run scrier's only for point economy reasons

just so that i can take 4 toughness nodees

[rigid sky]

So many people sleep on warp replenishment just because it's obviously weaker than quietitude

and it is - you should never take it if you haven't already taken quietitude

but that doesn't mean you shouldn't take it too

[supple dock]

https://tenor.com/qeoxzGlGgIS.gif

[supple dock]

stacking toughness regen talents is legit af

wait which one is warp replenishment? Is that soulstealer?

[rigid sky]

Nope, the opposite one to quietitude

[supple dock]

warp EXPENDITURE?

[rigid sky]

Soulstealer is another must though

Ah, that's the one

[supple dock]

okay

I was confused

LMAO

[spice veldt]

toughness bar go up https://streamable.com/9xmbhf

(ignore the pox gas in the background)

[rigid sky]

Remembering all the names for the generic stuff is hard lmao

[spice veldt]

this will be on the test

[supple dock]

yeah psyker when they're in control has so much toughness regen

[rigid sky]

I mean peril-goes-up,-toughness-goes-up

[supple dock]

But the moment you get caught unprepared?

It's joever

I tanked an entire horde + several ragers long enough to pick up dead allies

but 5 well placed shooters fucking shredded me

[spice veldt]

at least for ranged enemies it's a matter of spamming dodges at all times

scab shooters taking Ls after getting nerfed

since dodging now breaks their tracking

[supple dock]

yee, but they can still catch you offguard and shatter your toughness

and then you're just stuck

like I honestly think the scattered shooters is one of psyker's biggest threats

unironically

[spice veldt]

i always run assail so they've not been a threat to me

[supple dock]

What's the biggest threat for you?

[spice veldt]

myself

legitimately

either blowing up or willingly walking into obviously bad positions

[supple dock]

That's all of our biggest threats

[spice veldt]

i'm the type of person to park by bumper

[supple dock]

besides that

I'd say 40% of my deaths are to myself

[spice veldt]

i go into risky positions, die, and then don't do that the next time around

forethought does not exist in my dictionary

[supple dock]

I run a similar cycle except for the "don't do that next time" part

[spice veldt]

even in the toughness regen videeo above, you see me just completely ignore a dreg shooter meleeing me until the second time when i finally notice

that is the level of perception that i have when playing this game

[supple dock]

lmao

Here I am having to put most of my focus to play

But then again I play a stupid build

so

[spice veldt]

i always run meta degenerate builds that require minimal thinking

i am exactly the type of person that i criticize when i rant about nerfing meta weapons

[supple dock]

Speaking from experience is still a perspective

[spice veldt]

yup

that's the basis that i use for my rants

because I know for fucking sure that certain weapons do not require any thought

[supple dock]

See, even with braindead/thoughtless setups I still try to find some skill expression in it

Like picking up the knife with smite/surge

And surge cancelling

[spice veldt]

at least for those I'm incentivized to play optimally

optimally braindead

[supple dock]

lmao

[spice veldt]

surge cancelling is fine for me since i have good keybinds and is just muscle memory

just knowledge-checks being a big part of the game

the game would really benefit from a better tutorial that lays out in explicit terms the mechanics

and a glossary

[supple dock]

TRUE

[spice veldt]

overnight, the playerbase would just become better

[supple dock]

The difference between a game like this and say Dark Souls which doesn't tell you anything

Is that there's effects that aren't straightforward

dark souls? Poison? Drains hp. Curse? halves hp

Darktide. Rending? ...Armor penetration...maybe? But Brittleness? Armor penetration too?

[spice veldt]

yep

[supple dock]

(I know what they are just expmples)

[spice veldt]

and dark souls having the reputation of being a hardcore game

whereas a lot of people who say stupid shit in this game seem to have the expectation that they belong on the hardest difficulty even though they don't

[vestal fulcrum]

And Fatshark having a record of never explaining the game mechanics to its player base bar the bare essentials

[spice veldt]

guh

[supple dock]

Why explain your mechanics when dataminers?

Why add QoL when modders?

[vestal fulcrum]

Why explain anything while wierdge dedicated players will make Steam guides about it

[rich jolt]

And sometimes that information is false

[vestal fulcrum]

There’s joy to competence, but at what cost

[spice veldt]

weird people like josho

[supple dock]

Some people are defined by it

Kinda goes for me too when it comes to games

If I'm not competent in a game I enjoy it frustrates me

But then again gaming is my primary hobby and being disabled means I do it for hours every day

So if I weren't decent it'd be nonsensical

[vestal fulcrum]

I’d say the Crusher guide is fairly average in that regard

[lethal lagoon]

People who can be like bronze in league for years are a different breed.

[supple dock]

TRUE

[spice veldt]

yeah tbf that's just a weapons thing

[vestal fulcrum]

But Josho at least seems to have some good game knowledge

[supple dock]

The highest I've gotten was like Diamond 4

mobas are fucking hard dude

[spice veldt]

that's the only steam guide that i know besides royale's guide which is outdated

[supple dock]

anyone who says mobas are easy are not high mmr players

people are wild

[lethal lagoon]

I played league on release, I don't even remember what I ended up at.

Never played it again after that.

[supple dock]

I ended up playing until like season 8

Straight

Even taught a few people the game indepth

[lethal lagoon]

I was glad and sold arena rating in WoW, bout the closest I got to being "good" at a game

PvE don't count

Oh yeah, did anyone play the vermintide pvp? Was it any good?

[supple dock]

There was an old game I played online

Dark Messiah of Might and Magic

[lethal lagoon]

That was online?

[supple dock]

I dominated the multiplayer scene. To the point where people would leave the game or immediately join my team

Yeah it was

entirely different game

[lunar hollow]

completely uncalled for

[supple dock]

I became very very very well known in that scene lmao

That was my one claim to fame

I was there when the meta was being formed and I more or less shaped it from the foundations

[spice veldt]

be grateful that i thankfully informed you about an issue

[lethal lagoon]

If you aren't weird, how'd you read that message

[supple dock]

Is being an issue?

[upper sun]

im so sorry

[spice veldt]

in josho's case, yes

[lunar hollow]

i have an interpreter

[lethal lagoon]

[supple dock]

Fair enough

[vestal fulcrum]

I played League at release, and after many leaves and returns I finally had stopped having fun in 2018. 9 years of somewhat evocative self-loathing

[supple dock]

League was a really important learning tool for me and my personality tbh

[vestal fulcrum]

At release I.e., in October 2009

[supple dock]

It highlighted core personality issues I didn't like

Took a while but it was my first big step into self awareness

[cinder moon]

shit like this is a curse, i can't get legit matches of a certain game mode in another game because i've been accused of cheating a bunch of times so people just leave when they see me in the lobby

[vestal fulcrum]

I never looked at League from that perspective, but it undoubtedly has had some influence over how my gamer brain developed

[supple dock]

RIGHT ITS THE WORST

I had to change my name to play

and the moment I played people figured it out because I played in such a particular way

[supple dock]

Mhm! It brings your competitive nature and clashes it against working with other people as a team

It was a very good learning tool for me to temper my anger and focus my intention

[cinder moon]

try playing world of warships some time. the game says you have 11 teammates, but it's really you vs 23 morons

[supple dock]

lmao

[upper sun]

2011-2015 was peak

playing leona with a full page of armor runes was so fun

[supple dock]

My brother still gets frustrated at losing in games like that and he just goes "How do you not get frustrated?"

And it's like. Yearrrrrs of work man

[vestal fulcrum]

No meta gaming League, when people were clueless about things, was peak indeed

[supple dock]

Dude watching the first league torunament is wild

[upper sun]

man id go all in on levels 1 2 and 3 as a leona with like 34 armor while everyone was at 10 it was so cancer

[spice veldt]

interesting how anger management is a part of every discussion about league

[supple dock]

When your expectations are not only not met but entirely crushed anger will rise

[upper sun]

simply play aram no reason to get angry

[supple dock]

aram is a good tool to learn how to teamfight

[upper sun]

aram was fun before they ruined it 😭

[upper sun]

i had a 60% win rate in aram

unironically like 4k games

[supple dock]

jesus

[upper sun]

i got it down to a science

[supple dock]

I've played less than 50

[cinder moon]

it's integral to comp play in literally every game. some of the most toxic people i ever met was when i played CS competitively back when CAL was still a thing

[rigid sky]

I was playing League around the time of the height of my depression and anxiety

[upper sun]

the all same champ game mode was crazy fun

[rigid sky]

and stopping it was part of what started to make me feel better

[upper sun]

i laughed so hard i got headaches

ah the good ol days of teamspeak

[rigid sky]

I still get shakey on team based pvp games now

[cinder moon]

get off vent or i'll have you bent

[upper sun]

now time to grind sedation for weeklies

worst time of the week 😦

[supple dock]

Same. I take pride in my ability to play video games and I ended up conflating that to self worth, so I'd hate myself for not doing as well as I had envisioned

A lot of league players suffer from that exact thing

When you see it it's actually really depressing

[cinder moon]

https://tenor.com/view/hockey-only-game-bryzgalov-anahe-gif-8306971

[supple dock]

Only game yes, but hundreds if not thousands of hours and you still haven't mastered it and because of the stiff competition related to your skill level you never feel like you're improving

[cinder moon]

yeah, i get it. i was CAL main back in the early CS days

[supple dock]

Yeah, CAL was brutal

I only ever heard of it

But the stories
