We really are janitors in most of our missions, aren't we?

[rigid sky]

When the enemy is a cult of nurgle it's kinda important tbf

[stark notch]

I thought video games were a way to escape real life

😔

[marble crater]

You get to do the job with weapons though

[stark notch]

Chainsaw Mop when fatshark

[marble crater]

With the crafting update

[stark notch]

I may as well wait for the heat death of the universe. At least the result won't be half-assed

I don't believe in a crafting update anymore T-T

[marble crater]

Should come soon-ish, they already announced it, surely they won't keep us waiting for 6 months, right?

[hearty dagger]

Tbf i don't even care about the crafting anymore, i just want more weapons to struggle with getting good rolls for in the first place

The psyker curse of having like 5 weapons actually worth using is hitting hard

[marble crater]

Ah that's the famous letter then, I have only been playing since it's on Xbox gamepass, so I am still a lot more patient than others

[potent echo]

To fatshark, having 2 locks is considered the crafting update

[stark notch]

They'll remove one lock per year, call that the update

Actually no, next lock removal will be free. Last one will be DLC

[lone ravine]

You will also have to complete a challenge for hadron even after buying the dlc (it is extremely rng based and will take forever)

[marble crater]

Locks still mean you need to gamble on a base, no thank you

[potent echo]

Also you could select perks from a list instead of a random one

[hearty dagger]

Tbf i feel like a good way of doing things might end up just being letting you choose which blessing you want from consecration and scaling the cost accordingly

[manic river]

How do you build with VI knife

[marble crater]

Uncanny with Flesh Tearer, Carapace and Unyielding maybe? But bleed is not as good on psyker, so maybe something else instead

[manic river]

I have this

Paired with this

[marble crater]

That works too, yes

Very nice

[manic river]

But I don't feel I'm doing something with it

Or perhaps I'm not used to use Knife since It's not the same as Zealot

[marble crater]

Not doing something with the knife?

[manic river]

Feels different compared to zealot that's all, I know both classes are different

I'm not used to it yet

[marble crater]

We have a few psykers who play with knife, they can probably help more. I also only use it on zealot, where I have Flak, Cara, Flesh Tearer and Uncanny

[manic river]

Or perhaps it's just a mobility tool

[radiant frigate]

"mobility tool" but with limited ammo seems weird to me

[jovial juniper]

That's how you end up dropping the knives for the dueling swords

[ripe bear]

shredder auto for gunker?

[ripe bear]

LMAO

CHAT

decent? 😭

\

all we got rn

[marble crater]

Eh, I guess it will work once you put Dumdum on there

[ripe bear]

dont got dum yet

rolling for that still

fucking Plasteel gone

[rigid sky]

Shredder is just dogshit

Even worse on psyker since we need finesse guns

[ripe bear]

oh ic

tyty

[stark notch]

Just use columnist psyker

Columnus*

[sacred crane]

Have we gotten our psyker gun yet

[stark notch]

No...

[sacred crane]

How do I contact fatshark officials

[stark notch]

@fatshark

Psyker gun w h e n

[ripe bear]

is there psyker guns?

tbf we havent gotten ALOT of shit that should be in a 40k fps game

fatshark dropping the ball on this game when it could be SO GOOD

[sacred crane]

Every other class has exlusive guns, where is my exclusive gun

[median sorrel]

you get a staff

thats your gun

[sacred crane]

I want a gun not a stick

FORCE GUN

FATSHARK MAKE IT HAPPEN

[ripe bear]

but are these in warhammer universe guns

games workshop wont let it if its not

they are very nit picky

[sacred crane]

[ripe bear]

ye prlly wont happen if not

[bold cape]

fun >>> lore but that’s just me

[ripe bear]

both

they can do both

its just baffling whats happened with darktide and how bad its been mismanaged

[sacred crane]

Why dont we get a gun, but instead its our hands and we shoot frickin laser beams

[bold cape]

darktide had the potential to be much more than a niche game like vt2 and they blundered it

[sacred crane]

Imagine if psyker could use grenades

Big warp explosion

[marble crater]

You mean trauma staff?

[sacred crane]

Sibling, I want a grenade, not a stick

[supple dock]

you ARE a grenade

[sacred crane]

I WANT A METAL BALL I CAN THROW THAT EXPLODES AS PSYKER

[supple dock]

oh, why didn't you say so? god

Ugh. No sleep

[marble crater]

[ripe bear]

this pennace where i need 40 kills in scieres gaze is making me upset

i wanna delete my team

I WANT THE GREEN DRIP

[quartz barn]

its not bad if you run with void or i guess illisi

because you can just vent and stall

[marble crater]

Find a horde, take an illisi and wack wack wack

[quartz barn]

if you find a nice hallway it should be super easy

[upper sun]

i recommend vigil station oblivion the final section

[rigid sky]

You could take the shit version of scrier's

to help stretch the gaze out

I'm still on 38 :(

[upper sun]

if you body block teammates from shooting you can get all the kills yourself

[ripe bear]

define

[rigid sky]

shit version? I mean the one where you don't get finesse damage

I think the lower modifier

[radiant frigate]

probably the easiest penance

[upper sun]

idk i did it on the normal one

[marble crater]

The 20% less peril generation node instead

[upper sun]

just got lucky and my team let me go crazy

[upper sun]

ye and maybe even battle med

[quartz barn]

i just go crazy by default lmao

but tbh me on gunker is a bit overkill

[upper sun]

i got it low intensity malice

i was doing map penances

[quartz barn]

wait but arent those just the idols?

and clearing them on x difficulty i guess

ive done almost all skulls on AM as well xd

[upper sun]

no

clear 50 times as well

[quartz barn]

hmm ye i guess you can speedrun malice

[rigid sky]

I take that on gunker anyway tbh

Spare points and it feels more relevant than any competing points for me. It'd probably just be warp speed otherwise

[upper sun]

if you want a hard penance

[rigid sky]

That's purgatus fodder imo

[upper sun]

i have not moved from 98 since i played purg about 700 hours ago

[rigid sky]

gotta do something like the relay station mid event

[upper sun]

(i no longer play purge)

[marble crater]

Did that during Hab Dreyko escape

[rigid sky]

is it a psyker penance or for anybody?

[upper sun]

no

[marble crater]

Anyone

[upper sun]

its tactical

[rigid sky]

get it with an ogryn frag bomb

pack the fuckers in tight

[upper sun]

s-so close

[ripe bear]

its pissing me off

i wouldve ahd it if i didnt get dog spawn

[upper sun]

ye took me a few attempts

[marble crater]

Just dodge

[upper sun]

you should try make every bullet count

[ripe bear]

cant see

[upper sun]

took me like 10 attempts

[marble crater]

Hear

[rigid sky]

much easier now from what I heard

[ripe bear]

black metal

[upper sun]

every fucking game had a survivalist vet

[rigid sky]

since you only need 90% now

[upper sun]

ye i only tried it now

i just kept dodging until i got a few games without

used a lawbringer with low ammo

and only shot special attacks

[marble crater]

Was easy with pgun, shoot in a horde

[rigid sky]

once you hit 0 bullets you can just swap to your melee and not get your gun out again if you didn't know

[upper sun]

ye

[rigid sky]

Shotguns sound like the way for me too

[upper sun]

had like 3 games where someone would snip something before my bullet travelled there

[rigid sky]

I'm getting into kantrael shotgun on my knife pervert zealot atm anyway

[marble crater]

Shotgun can get blocked by the team, had no success with that

[rigid sky]

got a manstopper/scattershot one :D

[upper sun]

lawbring is w i d e

my team that mission was two people flirting with eachother

one was drunk and one was high

somehow i got it there

[ripe bear]

WE GOT IT

i had to hold r for like a min

smh my head

[stray helm]

which stat is the trauma's stagger under

trying to walk arelatively new psyker through the weapon, its hard when its a low powered staff cause the peril generation burns him out in like 3 circles

he says he cant stagger the crushers though and i dunno which stat that is related to

[spice veldt]

id prob give up on trauma for lower levels cuz it's stats scale quite widely

my guess is that it's stagger is fixed based only on charge level but my guess is that the trauma charges so slowly and has such a small epicentre that they're not seeing it

[marble crater]

Yeah don't use staves while leveling, they are shit with low stats. Assail is your best friend while leveling. Can also practice melee to be ready for higher difficulties

[stiff falcon]

What not crafting for a week does

[spice veldt]

the other staffs are fine

it's just trauma specifically that has wide scaling

[lapis violet]

telekine shield takes so long it's making me consider suicide

and it's not even the last remaining one for my psyker

[upper sun]

play one full game on weapon spec
+10 stacks

[upper sun]

72000/300=240 assuming you only played damnation and assuming each mission is 20 minutes(its not) (240*20)/60 we get 80

bro pulling 80 hour weeks in tertium

[lapis violet]

better calculable through dockets

[hexed geyser]

He probably wasnt at 0 diamantine so it could make sense

[lapis violet]

i'm too stupid to do it but dockets are the way

since you can just get a map where you can't really look for plasteel or teammates that don't do it

or skulls

or idols

[hexed geyser]

I went with plasteel and the math says 53h for me

Or he most likely already had a lot of resources and just went really high this week

[stiff falcon]

Averaging 60k dockets a run

[quartz barn]

you run out of plasteel much faster than dia however

so prob used a lot of it already

[stiff falcon]

I have never ran out of diamantine

In fact even when crafting I’m still gaining

[quartz barn]

because you only use it for the last 2 upgrades while plasteel is used in everything

[stiff falcon]

38

[upper sun]

ikno im just messing around no way you can do 240 damnations all in 20 minutes or less

idk unless you have a team of super autismos with you

and no way you can collect all 300 dimantines without wanting to kys yourself

[stiff falcon]

I did spend a million dockets on pointless cosmetics

[quartz barn]

just gonna point out that everyone is underselling this, not only are you guys using (auric) damn as the basis, you also ignore any amount spend before (and if using dia/plasteel the amount gained per run varies)

so the actual time spend on getting those amounts is much higher

[rigid sky]

Team quadstealthknife go

[vestal haven]

is it worth tweaking?

Also looking for a good brain burst build

[sacred crane]

I'd say switch out either one for ucanny, then switch out groaner damage for carapace

[rigid sky]

I have two builds that run brain burst, give me a sec

Both run Deimos but they can do DS4 if you prefer that

Note: Kinetic flayer is awful, Kinetic Resonance is awesome

You can run walls instead of bubble if you want to brain rupture even better

I just like the toughness regeneration from bubble

[zinc phoenix]

Burgatus bb??

Wut

You are a weird one 😂

[plucky flax]

Why tho it's to kill monsters

[marble crater]

That's a very normal combination, no?

[zinc phoenix]

I’ll be honest your builds are always entertaining so I give it a shot

[zinc phoenix]

Burgatus was really bad last patch. Idk how it is this one but

[plucky flax]

It's the same.

[zinc phoenix]

🤔

Maybe I’ll try to make a not shit flashlight vet while im at it

[marble crater]

Mixed hordes are no problem with that on the team, your weakness would be ranged, so BB takes care of that. Dueling sword for carapace and you are set

[zinc phoenix]

I’ll be honest I hate ds and always have

Accidentally yeeting myself off ledges because the dodge goes for miles

[marble crater]

Deimos works too

[rigid sky]

Deimos always works too

Unless you need more horde clear

And with purg you don't lol

[zinc phoenix]

I’m tempted to go og and bring out my god tier oscuros from launch

Maybe it’s actually good now and no one noticed

[rigid sky]

Purgatus is probably our worst staff but it's still good

[rigid sky]

Nope lmao

Deimos but without the strong single target unpowered combo

They should give it deflector for free tbh

Or make the charged attack cause an explosion

Like an mincharged trauma blast or something

[zinc phoenix]

Or better yet let you force choke people

Like fuck it let me roleplay Darth Vader

I already do a goofy ass max block eff and stam thing

[tired estuary]

give it the infinite dodges back

(don't, actuallly)

[ruby shadow]

Give it dodge for peril 😳

[strong gulch]

Bring back peril on regular block. No KD required.

[marble crater]

KD, KF, KR

[cinder moon]

3 of those letters are somewhat suspect

[rigid sky]

It's the krusty komedy klassic

[upper sun]

🤔 u lied to me zealot fire doesnt remove bad fire

[marble crater]

It did last time I tried, bad fire first then zealot fire to turn it into zealot fire

[upper sun]

🤔

[marble crater]

Maybe it's only for bomber or flamer but not both?

[upper sun]

i think ur pulling my leg

[marble crater]

No, I definitely turned harmful fire into good fire with zealot nades

[upper sun]

maybe bad fire just happened to expire and because of the fire viewing angle bug u thought the zealot made fire go

[marble crater]

I don't think so when I play again later I will try to get a clip

[upper sun]

🤔

[cinder moon]

i've never seen this interaction

[upper sun]

bro gaslighting me into getting fire-lite

😭

[cinder moon]

if it did work, shouldn't it apply to any bad fire source? bomber, flamer, barrel

[upper sun]

i tried barrel didnt work

[marble crater]

Barrel fire is different from bomber

[upper sun]

toughness fire hp fire aids fire

[marble crater]

It doesn't remove toughness first, right?

[upper sun]

no difference1!!!!

i simply charge flamers

[marble crater]

Means they are coded differently, so it would make sense it doesn't work on all

No idea if it's a bug or an actual mechanic even

Maybe someone with fancy mods can test it in the meat grinder, would be more reliable I think, or easier to do at least

[strong gulch]

I just tried in the meat grinder. I couldn't "override" the fire from flamers or bomber. I let them apply their fire first, then did fire nade.

[marble crater]

I will try in game later, I'm sure I did it, if it was the timing of the fire then that was way too good

[placid sorrel]

this is hella fun

[marble crater]

Well I'm not, I'm just wrong if it's not the case

[placid sorrel]

face stab galore

[ripe bear]

should i earn dum dum from this
or level it up and see if i get good rng

[strong gulch]

If this is an upgrade or you don't have the gun yet, go ahead and upgrade it to see what you get.

[ripe bear]

i have one but its mid

ill show u '

[ripe bear]

here

I DO NOT have every blessing

just started rolling for coloumnus

[ripe bear]

this is my first dum dum pull

[rigid sky]

Would be nice if stability was higher

But you can make low stability work

It levels out after a few shots anyway

[strong gulch]

If you are chain rolling guns, then keep rolling.

[ripe bear]

define dump stat

[upper sun]

Its perfectly usable

[upper sun]

a state that doesnt effect weapon performance or effects it badly by being high

like blast radius on voidstrike

[sacred crane]

Siblings I request a loadout to use on psyker since I am quite bored

[ripe bear]

cowbow psyker

[strong gulch]

Primary / LMB main on surge staff with terrible barrage or trauma staff with surge blessing.

[stiff falcon]

Smite

[sacred crane]

They call me the space cowboy...

[strong gulch]

Exorcist + blazing spirit illisi and gaze.

[sacred crane]

Kindly peril explosion yourself

[strong gulch]

Fine, how about rending shockwave trauma and melee main?? That is far more hinged. 😭

[sacred crane]

Ahem emporer of mankind we have psyker for you to consume

[strong gulch]

[marble crater]

Purgatus, Smite, Gaze, Illisi, DD

[strong gulch]

Surge staff blitz cancel

[sacred crane]

Never let #psyker-class cook again

[upper sun]

emperor grant me strength.. you wanted something new

but not too new

how about surge flurry voidstrike?

[ripe bear]

question

if i refine an item, it says i can 0/2 modifications

are these separate from blessing modifications

[upper sun]

no

[ripe bear]

fuck

[upper sun]

you have 4 things

either 1 perk/1 blessing or two of either

its ok i bricked/sold a ton of shit before i found the guides

[ripe bear]

lets say i have a t2 perk and i upgrade it to t4 does that use 1 mod slot

[upper sun]

crafting update will fix it

yes

any change

even if its upgrading something

"CRAFTING UPDATE WILL FIX IT"

[ripe bear]

yeah when

in 4 more fucking months

[upper sun]

just 7 more months

[ripe bear]

this game would literally be dead at that point

OH GOLLY ONLY SEVEN?

[upper sun]

who even knows

[ripe bear]

vt2 had better crafting

u.u

[upper sun]

so tru so tru

[strong gulch]

Now it does. It was shit at first.

[ripe bear]

this games gamplay is so fucking good, but everything else is a downgrade

[ripe bear]

no shit, but did they not learn

[upper sun]

everything in the game that isnt gameplay is shit

[ripe bear]

answer, no they didnt

[upper sun]

i hate collecting shit

[strong gulch]

Hopefully soon.

[ripe bear]

IM A SHIT EATER

[upper sun]

i just wanna play the game

[ripe bear]

I LOVE EATING SHIT

[upper sun]

siblings first crafting breakdown ^

i had one when i bricked 8 stamina 3 curios

Time for totally healthy coping mechanisms.

LMB terrible barrage surge staff definitely isn't a cry for help.

[upper sun]

https://forums.fatsharkgames.com/t/the-crafting-memorial-lest-we-forget/79281
our boy brosgw will welcome you with open arms

say your peace there itll help

[balmy flax]

Yes crafting system is meh.
But the situations where a 550 breakpoints better than a 520-530 is rare, and getting a good 520-530 isnt that time consuming on a average.

I don't understand people's obsession with crafting in this game.

Fatshark maybe would've been better served by just letting people choose weapon and nothing else, then there is no crafting system and therefore no bad crafting system

[upper sun]

I dont even want 550s i just want my own perks and my own blessings on weapons

just make the lock limit 3 and im happy really

[spice veldt]

crafting impact is not much once you're at the high ends but it's certainly something that feels bad

[upper sun]

yeah once you're at around 800-1000 hours you dont have to interact with the crating system

[quartz barn]

not much?

[upper sun]

see its not so bad

[spice veldt]

it's not about interacting with it

i still have to interact with it dude

[quartz barn]

certain %s, perks and or blessings are literally a must on certain weapons

[upper sun]

interact with deez

[spice veldt]

it's the fact that the variance in perk/blessing levels is not high

[upper sun]

blessings are another subject

[spice veldt]

and that stat scaling is whatevs as well in terms of the variance of the items that you'll roll

[quartz barn]

atleast psykers have it somewhat easy because staffs have little to no blessings

[upper sun]

if they wanna balance an RNG crafting system everything has to be good

but when you have shit like groaners and crit damage

and blessings like exorcist and blazing spirit for blaze swords they can not be in the same catagory as slaughter

[quartz barn]

meanwhile guns have 9 blessings so good luck getting the 2 that you want at T4 + the T4 perks that you want

[spice veldt]

i don't disagree
I'm purely talking about people who are grinding for the "perfect" weapon

[upper sun]

im fine with most T3s as long as its what i want

though some shit like thrust you kinda need it to be T4

[thorn cedar]

like yea some weps really exemplify how bad the system can be

trauma staff, power cycler, whatever

but its only as obnoxious as what you put into it

and i just dont lol

as much as possible

[upper sun]

tfw only blazing spirits 3 on trauma its so bricked bros..............

[marble crater]

Crafting is bad to keep people playing to grind for better rolls, meanwhile I haven't seriously crafted something in quite a while and I'm still playing just as much

[upper sun]

i craft about one item every 50 hours of play

and i dont even play them

[marble crater]

[zinc phoenix]

This click to claim penance bs is so tedious

Fuck penances ngl

[upper sun]

spent like 10k plasteel on recons/shotties/ogryn slop for penances

[zinc phoenix]

I have a billion to click, I’m done with it

Idk why they don’t have a claim all for people who didn’t just get the game

[marble crater]

Clicking on penances is nice, give me that dopamine hit

[upper sun]

gotcha game mechanics

[marble crater]

[upper sun]

peak

ogryn has no finesse anyways

[marble crater]

[jovial juniper]

Finesse on ogryns is just attack speed, now watch as I one shot the heretics

[hardy tulip]

I need firearms to use Scrier's Gaze or can go with Assail maybe with both even?

[hexed geyser]

That's the usual choice everyone go to. Heavy laspistol or columnus 5. Revo if you're feeling it and usually ds4

[marble crater]

Using assail can work, but it gets dangerous at some point

[lone ravine]

What’s the feat row supposed to mean?

[fallow dawn]

blitz ,ability,aura , keystone

[lone ravine]

Ah

[quartz barn]

i just dont even bother with the grenades on gunker

[hearty dagger]

Just 1 more day before Skulls

Please Fatshark, fucking cook

I can't handle a nothing burger for psyker again

[hasty breach]

brainburst is fine for distant enemies your columnus or whatever cant handle on gunker

or staggering crushers etc

[quartz barn]

i have bb for distant enemies, but only really use it if they're stuck behind something

other than that there's no point because ds4 oneshots almost everything and crushers get 2 tapped by heavy special tech

[vestal haven]

how should I tweak it?

[plucky flax]

What you mean its best build.

[cinder moon]

get a new one

[vestal haven]

lol why?

[cinder moon]

bad perks, bad blessings

[vestal haven]

Riposte is bad?

[spice veldt]

t2 unyielding is fine and so is precog/riposte

[vestal haven]

which should I change with uncanny strike?

[spice veldt]

I personally have a preference for riposte over precog, but I run DD so I always have some finesse bonus

[vestal haven]

If I build something other than DD, is it better to keep precognition or riposte?

[cinder moon]

unyielding will only matter against bulwarks and bosses, neither of which are common enough to justify the perk itself on a mk4 with blessings that don't explicitly complement +unyielding

[spice veldt]

if you want to eek out a bit more boss damage, than it's fine

ds4 with some buffs is enough to hit meaningful breakpoints already

and I'm fine with just having only one perk slot to hit BPs for crushers

[cinder moon]

that assumes not running brain burst or some primary that does enough boss damage on its own

[spice veldt]

i mean, it's their build and they seemed to have figured that they needed unyielding damage

obviously I'm going to make some assumptions

[cinder moon]

where are you getting that from?

[spice veldt]

i'm assuming

[cinder moon]

that they needed unyield?

[spice veldt]

mf

i just said i'm assuming

[marble crater]

@upper sun I did a malice mission to test it and seem I was wrong I guess I was tricked by perfect timing when I did that in the past

[cinder moon]

it's a completely stock sword and all he said was "how tweak"

[spice veldt]

yeah?

[cinder moon]

your assumption about unyielding is completely unfounded

[spice veldt]

not completely

and assumptions aren't called assumptions for no reason

fine, let's not worry about the build
If they need a decent unyielding ds4, then that one is fine

[cinder moon]

sibling, do you need +unyielding on your melee?

[spice veldt]

and you are going to keep unyielding anyways

since the other perk is groaner and they don't have uncanny as the other blessing

there is practically no other change that you can do to that ds4 anyways

[cinder moon]

or they could just get a better sword and not waste resources on this one

[spice veldt]

bruh

[vestal haven]

I want to use the duelling sword for bulwarks and dealing damage to those kind of mobs.

[cinder moon]

carapace and unyielding

uncanny and riposte

[vestal haven]

Awesome. Thank you guys.

Thx, but only want to do penance.

[stiff falcon]

100k hehe

[untold niche]

dumb dumb qn because uh i hjave been fucking with reshade too much

in lobby, when you hit esc to enter menu, then hit esc to exit the menu, is there a brief momment of blur?

https://streamable.com/qm14h5

[marble crater]

Well in the clip there is can't say I ever noticed, I don't have that

Oh, I do, for like a millisecond maybe, not as long as in that clip

[elder token]

Would anyone be willing to help me get the private match penance?

[ripe bear]

join the lfgs chats

[elder token]

Will do thanks!

[untold niche]

fak i disabled reshade but still have that horrible blur

[upper sun]

AYOOO did the 80k docket maelstrom with no deaths

so proud of myself

[marble crater]

Yeah I don't know anything about that, Microsoft took care of all the settings for me

So close

This is close too

[spice veldt]

@feral verge die

[feral verge]

?

problem?

[spice veldt]

you

[feral verge]

how? why?

[spice veldt]

you know why

[marble crater]

For tagging and deleting

[feral verge]

what's that

proof?

[upper sun]

damn how will you recover those 5000 braincells?

I gave up on heavy hitter and weapon spec

i just need to do a couple of maelstroms some sedation repairs and ~150 more armor kills and im done

[marble crater]

It's not difficult if you play a heavy hitter build anyway

[jovial juniper]

Just make sure you're not taking the bleed talent

Batter

[marble crater]

Yeah, I could have finished it earlier, but we got there eventually, sah

[upper sun]

i dont wanna play heavy hitter and i esp dont wanna play heavy hitter without bleed

[jovial juniper]

You see, the targets that you don't kill with a heavy will bleed to death, therefore not enough targets to kill

Or you could take a knife with slaughterer

Eh

You do you, have fun out there

[upper sun]

nuh uhhh

i will simply do other penances

[marble crater]

Shield with the right perks and blessings can one shot 4 bruisers with H1, will take longer but still. I also get a lot more use out of heavy hitter than feel no pain with my build. As long as you heavy attack your toughness is full, even against 10 ragers

[upper sun]

yeah but i die very quick

i need FNP because ogryn is so immobile

[marble crater]

Dodge sliding is important on ogryn, yeah

[supple dock]

I'm not a cannibal I'm a cantibal v.v

[marble crater]

What

[supple dock]

oh hey im no longer flashbanged

[lethal lagoon]

Yeah I felt bad about that.

Not towards you I mean.

Towards flashbanging others

[supple dock]

lmao

So I was in a VC last night

Dude joins, immediately demands we kick whoever we were in game with because h wanted in now

I was like ...no? They're people too.

[lethal lagoon]

Let me in NOW

[supple dock]

"but they're random people who you'll never see again"

Yeah? So are you??

It costs nothing to not be a dick

YOU joined US

You can wait

He got pissy and left

[lethal lagoon]

It costs my feeling of pride and accomplishment

[supple dock]

He like tried to say because he was a part of this idscord he has priority or some shit

Forgot who it was

Fucking loser lmao

[marble crater]

Okay EA

[lethal lagoon]

That gives "Do you know who my father is" energy

But their father is a like an actual homeless man.

[supple dock]

TRUE

It's wild that these people think anyone gives a fuck about them

Then the other guy that joined told me that "i could be nicer"

Fuck that lmao

[upper sun]

bruh

[supple dock]

I was being as nice as the situation called for

[marble crater]

No good deed goes unpunished

[supple dock]

After that some cool dudes joined and it was a good time

[lethal lagoon]

I'm stilling waiting for them to try to secretly delete that comment.

[marble crater]

Would it matter at this point? Everyone knows

[supple dock]

Man that post was wild

pride and accomplishment > $90 later

[lethal lagoon]

I don't try to understand how C-suit execs who never play video games think

I just think it'd be hilarious, and on brand, if they try to delete it

Now that most of the stuff has passed

[marble crater]

They just think about how to get enough money for their next 5 cars, I guess. Shame

[upper sun]

AYO

got it gets hot 4

[marble crater]

Nice

[upper sun]

i finished vet

[supple dock]

FOund an illisi in the store, upgraded it

[upper sun]

its over

[supple dock]

This is what I get

[upper sun]

why does hadron do this

[lethal lagoon]

Change sprint to 5% crit and that's literally your sword.

[upper sun]

why does she put executor on illisi and slaughter on deimos?

[marble crater]

Very nice

[marble crater]

Not so nice

[supple dock]

Unyielding though?

shred/executor are good blessings whachu mean

Not my favorite at all

but they're still good

[marble crater]

Yes, rending trauma is good too

[lethal lagoon]

"But they're still good"
That's literally Kusu-core.

Kusu-core doesn't mean bad.

[supple dock]

wtf lmao

[lethal lagoon]

It's not an insult. it's a way of life.

[supple dock]

i hate it here

[marble crater]

[lethal lagoon]

That uncaptilized "i" is really offbrand

[marble crater]

Because you upset him

He is besides himself

[supple dock]

When I'm pissed I start using periods and stuff lmao

[marble crater]

Aren't you male?

[supple dock]

..

i hate it here

[upper sun]

[cinder moon]

[ripe bear]

using caps and proper punctuation is cringe

[supple dock]

[ripe bear]

[hasty breach]

dont you mean “I hate it here.”

[ripe bear]

Yes, he does mean "I hate it here."

[supple dock]

Bo burnham music

But THE SNIPERS

[dusky crag]

Damn one of you got destroyed!

[strong gulch]

https://tenor.com/view/lasers-concert-lights-gif-5102526

Laser show. Party time.

[brittle pier]

for the ds4 what stats am i looking for to be 80%? dmg finesse pen?

[supple dock]

yes

[ripe bear]

i dont see any yellow crits

do i have the wrong healthbars mod

or is my build scuffed

even when i pop gaze

[lethal lagoon]

Healthbars don't show colors in game

[ripe bear]

go to the grinder then?

[lethal lagoon]

If that's what you are into. I heard from my buddy it's really easy to "crit" there.

[ripe bear]

fuck you

im only crit'ing for 92 on a heresy big guy w vlub

is he flak armor

[lethal lagoon]

It should tell you the armor part in the pysch when you hit someone.

[ripe bear]

do i want flak or carapace on my columnus

[hasty breach]

flak

[potent echo]

Not carapace for sure on psyker

[hasty breach]

omg

flak

[ripe bear]

[hasty breach]

carapace is only crushers

and mauler heads

just shoot their bodies

[ripe bear]

so they will just be alittle tougher just cus

oki

[hasty breach]

and use a sword

for crushers

[ripe bear]

i got ilissi

[hasty breach]

use brain burst or allies

or diff sword

[ripe bear]

NO

whats allies

[potent echo]

Illisi can kill

Eventually

[lethal lagoon]

You typically don't use Columbus on crushers

[potent echo]

Just activate slap

Or use a big boy weapon like Deimos or duelling4

With uncanny

[ripe bear]

deimos better?

[supple dock]

CRAAAAZY game

[ripe bear]

obscurus is the bad one right

dueling 4 i need perks for still

[supple dock]

letting someone else deal with it

[ripe bear]

LOL

kinda dumb yo!

myb

[potent echo]

Zealot gaming

What were they using

[lethal lagoon]

For crushers, you have your melee or in a pinch you can SG a crusher with columunus.

[supple dock]

obscurous has a pretty bad moveset yeah. realistically it's "fine" but it's not the illisi (horde/everything but ogryns slaughtered) or deimos (elite dissapearer that can kill ogryns easy but is mediocre at hordeclear)

[ripe bear]

ilissi and deimo come down to preference or like what u wanna target and Duel4 is just god at this point?

[potent echo]

Duel4 is similar to deimos

Illisi still best horde clear

[supple dock]

second best melee hordeclear in the game

[ripe bear]

so am i getting better or is gunker ez mode

[white swan]

keep as is? i can change one more thing

[ripe bear]

no weakspot dam?

[supple dock]

unarmored > maniac and you have a decent weapon

not optimal but whatever it'll work

[white swan]

thats what i was thinking on the maniac

tyty

[shy pewter]

Does anyone recommend any synergies when doing the new psyker penances? For instance, doing the 250 assail kills at the same time as the 250 empowered psionics kills looks like it makes sense, but idk

Anyone who's out the other side and knows which ones pair together

[supple dock]

assail + shield + DD + any blitz, though BB works very well with double shield

Surge + smite + EP + venting shriek

Trauma/Purg + warp + BB + any skill you want

[shy pewter]

Cool I'll look into those, thanks

Smite and EP is good enough to do the 250 specialist kills?

Seems like smite would be slow in racking them up

[supple dock]

#psyker-class message

[supple dock]

@shy pewter ^check that out

That's smite + EP + venting shriek with creeping flames

If there were trash in that horde you'd be able to finish them all off with smite

with battle meditation

[lethal lagoon]

Why pick flak ragers

[shy pewter]

Hmmm. I see that and I see a pile of ragers that my teammates will kill before my smite does

[lethal lagoon]

[supple dock]

it's just to prove a point shutup

[lethal lagoon]

Don't bother brother, when someone thinks EP smite is bad DPS, no other thoughts can enter their brain.

[supple dock]

Yeah people tend to forget that you can't easily reach the back of a horde as easily as smite can :/

[lethal lagoon]

DPS the whole map with damage that will kill a rager in 8 seconds?

ToO SlOw

[supple dock]

Lemme make a better vid brb

[lethal lagoon]

Constant tick damage stealing kills for PC and pysch aura?

BaD DPs

[shy pewter]

I see the value in smite, I'm just not sure its the best for penance completion. But I'll try it

[lethal lagoon]

EP smite is easily the most broken ability in the game, it needs a complete rework lmao.

[potent echo]

Not smite

Smite EP specifically

It's the difference between killing trash per channel or just making them dance

[lethal lagoon]

Smite has an interesting problem where it increases the damage of weapons like kicback and plasma gun, while lowering the damage of weapons with a more horizontal cleave.

I dunno, the whole reason I kinda of like playing EP smite is because it doesn't belong.

It's a freak.

It doesn't mesh with the game

[potent echo]

I notice myself smiting things on top of a wall and no one can reach them

[lethal lagoon]

The assination map is perfect for that.

[potent echo]

I'm helping guysh 🤓

[lethal lagoon]

You know that elevator/stair event?

I get like 200k ahead in damage during it cause I just keep the whole back upstairs and kill them.

[supple dock]

This should be better

[shy pewter]

Ok I'll try EP smite to get the 250 EP kills. If I do a match and finish with 10 kills I'm gonna come back and yell at you

[lethal lagoon]

You need to have them active, to show why it's the best at doing this.

[supple dock]

Hmmm

Okay, will do another

[lethal lagoon]

Blaze trauma could kill that faster

But if they are active

smite wins

Which is what matters for a real game.

[lethal lagoon]

EP smite with flaming shriek

Just to be clear.

[potent echo]

Screen shake 🤢

[shy pewter]

Does flaming shriek count or does that just let the smite damage actually kill em?

[potent echo]

A bit of both

[lethal lagoon]

It makes your EP smite cast longer.

[potent echo]

But also PC

[supple dock]

oh man I got fucked up at the end but

[potent echo]

Majority of the damage still comes from smite

[lethal lagoon]

Here's a sample EP smite build.

[lethal lagoon]

You use Surge for crushers/bosses and to get EP stacks.
Then EP smite till 85%, shriek, keep holding smite.

[potent echo]

I drop perfect timing entirely lol

Doesn't seem to have a place for smite EP

[lethal lagoon]

Average EP smite gameplay. Kill the entire map, get fucked by 1 random guy.

[supple dock]

TRUE

[potent echo]

Get more toughness

[supple dock]

I refuse.

[lethal lagoon]

I edit the build all the time, it's more for games when I find myself needed to use surge more.

[potent echo]

More toughness and uh more toughness

[lethal lagoon]

I don't know if my current one has perfect timing.

[supple dock]

mine does not

because I want KD 😄

my build is exactly the same as the one you posted

except I have KD instead of perfect timing

i swapped back to stacks on elites

I actually don't notice a difference

[lethal lagoon]

KD? I hardly knew her.

[supple dock]

Literally bumbling your way into defeating the horde

[lethal lagoon]

I feel like this is the epitome of EP smite gameplay.

[supple dock]

But yeah, now I have a better EP smite vid

[lethal lagoon]

You wanna set up a scenario other weapons can't do

[supple dock]

yeee

[potent echo]

I prefer stack on elites

[supple dock]

I swapped off of it cause the people I played with prevented me from getting any elite kills

[potent echo]

Also seems like at some point they patched bursters to explode on smite

Was that always there?

[lethal lagoon]

Do you mean instantly?

Cause it's supposed to push them back

And then they explode

[potent echo]

Yea they explode

Even without being primed

[lethal lagoon]

That's not normal

then again my brain is like completely off when I play smite.

[supple dock]

Yeah you zap them for like 2-3 seconds and they die from 80% hp

I was trying to set up a stupid scenario and my game crashed ;;

[potent echo]

..!?;;

[supple dock]

I'll try 10 of each enemy..

maybe a few more pox walkers for battle meditation procs

[lethal lagoon]

This crashed my game

But it ran for a while

So you can count all the characters smited, and then use that as a measure

[supple dock]

lmao no

[lethal lagoon]

I feel like that'd be pretty Kusu-core to count them all

[ripe bear]

shred ripost on mk4 ok or should i keep trying to get other blessings for it

[supple dock]

hmm

maybe I shouldn't spawn bursters

crashyed again

[supple dock]

uncanny is the king of DS4 blessings

other one matters not at all

[ripe bear]

bet

[supple dock]

okay not gonna spawn flamers either

I WILL MAKE THIS FUCKING CLIP

[lethal lagoon]

After you finish making it, I'll go and make a better one

[supple dock]

I guess I have to skip bombers too..?

Cause fire particles..

[dusk void]

I freaking got the auric exemplar title. It was easier getting it the second time around

[supple dock]

CRASHED AGAIN

AAAAAAAA

[brittle pier]

@supple dock ik you said yesterday dmg dont matter on trauma staff but is 24% to low? it has 58% blast and 73% charge

[lethal lagoon]

Was he memeing? It kinda matters.

[brittle pier]

he told me blast radius is main stat

blast and charge rate

[hasty breach]

maybe he was thinking fire trauma

[lethal lagoon]

This 80 blast radius versus 53.

[hasty breach]

so damage is still important

[brittle pier]

im going for blaze trauma

[potent echo]

Damage is damage

[hasty breach]

and charge and radius you want high like above 70

[potent echo]

Ideally both 70+

[hasty breach]

how do you do that

[lethal lagoon]

So you want as close to 80% on blast radius, Charge Rate.
from there Damage and Quell are equally important.
And than resist is a bit lower.

[potent echo]

Damage can be like 50+

[lethal lagoon]

So Blast = Charge > Damage = Quell > Resist.

[lethal lagoon]

Mods

[brittle pier]

i got 60 blast 71 charge and 53 dmg one but with 26 quell

[potent echo]

You still levelling?

[hasty breach]

i doubt the radii you generate

[supple dock]

Whelp

Mutants keep on just..

Stop being stunned

So I'm just not gonna spawn them

[brittle pier]

lvl 36 currenlty

[potent echo]

Can definitely go for a better one

[brittle pier]

26*

[supple dock]

Fucking annoying

[lethal lagoon]

I did my best to time them before the blast sent them back

[supple dock]

IN AN ACTUAL GAME THEY STAY STUNNED

[lethal lagoon]

You can always test it yourself

[potent echo]

Main thing is the blessings

[brittle pier]

well i just need something to keep me a float till 30 so i think this one will suffice

[lethal lagoon]

Trauma is probably the worst staff pre-meta

[hasty breach]

https://tenor.com/view/death-puss-in-boots-gif-10673109260563651620

[lethal lagoon]

I wouldn't stress too much and just hit 30.

[brittle pier]

truama not good for lvling?

[lethal lagoon]

No, it's so bad for leveling, a lot of us consider it a terrible design choice to be the first staff you unlock.

[hasty breach]

yea

[supple dock]

i was put off from trauma for so long man

[hasty breach]

voidstrike is fun

[brittle pier]

so then whas better for levleing?

[lyric crow]

trauma is the goat for scab only melee

[spice veldt]

trauma has really wide stat scaling for some reason

[lethal lagoon]

If you are 20+, Surge and Purg are

Guns with assial are probably better.

So columbus mk5, laspistol, even recon isn't that bad for pre t5

[lyric crow]

laspistol 2 is reliable

[lethal lagoon]

Assial is also pretty good for learning not to blow up

[dusk void]

Why you hating on trauma?

[brittle pier]

ill lvl with assail gun till 30 then

[hasty breach]

context

[lyric crow]

hated*

[dusk void]

Oh, nvm then

[lethal lagoon]

Because it costs 50% peril to do 0 damage at lvl 11?

Oh, nvm then

[supple dock]

trauma was ass yeah

best staff for psyker with blazing spirit

highest damage period

but fuck it's so bad on its own

[dusk void]

This is mines currently

[supple dock]

Also, I got the example video

Killed everything but the crushers and got slammed by crushers

Which I think is good for the example

Cause it shows that you will get fucked by crushers if you only rely on it solo

[lethal lagoon]

Nah you kill everything but the crushers, and then surge/d4 them down

[spice veldt]

that's still quite good

since it's one of the infinite cleave weapons with degenerate amounts of staggers

it still has to obey the ogryn stagger immunity rules

but that still puts it at the top end of weapons esp in terms of generality

[lethal lagoon]

You could swap that to a rending blazing with true aim if you wanna be a degen like this guy ^

[supple dock]

yee, but it's an example

[lethal lagoon]

[supple dock]

It's a bigger file than I can upload so I'm gonna post a youtube link in a second

[spice veldt]

though a bad example in terms of proving it for being bad for solo in general

[supple dock]

Yeah, but it's to show the obnoxious power behind it

in a situation where most characters would crumble

Still being edited so I timestamped it

[lethal lagoon]

I wish we could save an enemy set up

[supple dock]

RIGHT

I had to do this SO MANY FUCKING TIMES

[lethal lagoon]

Cause obviously you messed up a bunch of times in that video. But redoing it will probably drive you crazy.

[supple dock]

mmhm

[lethal lagoon]

Plus you want a pre-aeril view

Cause what you see doesn't match the kill counter

[supple dock]

Feel free, I'm not doing that this was tedious enough as it was

[lethal lagoon]

That was my general thought after doing all those screenshots I have

Esp when you crash after the perfect set up

[supple dock]

There, got the actual file so no need for Youtube

EP Smite Example

BUT NAW SMITE IS WEAK

ITS BETTER TO KILL THEM THAN TO JUST KEEP THEM STUNNED

[cloud sequoia]

i met the most clueless psyker

and its not newbie 280+

[potent echo]

Playing new build

[cloud sequoia]

nah the guy headbutted the gas mission

[shy pewter]

Ok, this was ONE game of auric damnation with EP smite and surge. I stand completely corrected lmao

Done in 2-3 games is

[lethal lagoon]

The smite penance goes really quick too

[shy pewter]

Yeah 912/2500 in that game

3 games for both penances

[shy pewter]

I'm 1823/2500 after my second game, exactly double. Build is very consistent lol

[lethal lagoon]

[supple dock]

I haven't listened to 3oh!3 in forever

The nostalgia

[hearty oak]

Man none of the smite psykers in my games can smite like this

You did portray their inability to stay alive correctly though

[supple dock]

[lethal lagoon]

[supple dock]

it was to show that it gets destroyed if you mindlessly hold it

[lethal lagoon]

[lethal lagoon]

Real Smiter

[hearty oak]

Yes i saw this before

[supple dock]

music might be a bit loud in this video but

[hearty oak]

You didnt die though

[hearty oak]

You're doing it wrong

[supple dock]

it's a good example of smite being useful

[lethal lagoon]

To be fair, I've never ran into a useful smiter

So I 100% agree with them

[potent echo]

I've only seen one ascended EP smiter in the wilds

[hearty oak]

Cause there arent any. Its just the ones can play the game well, not just know how to use smite

[spice veldt]

at least with most other weapons, pubs won't be so annoying

[potent echo]

Once they start smiting I just leave because they already soloed that encounter

[lethal lagoon]

This 200k damage is my average smite experience.

[potent echo]

They aren't sure

Smiteker might be the 600k damage one though

Because enemies staggered

[lethal lagoon]

Twauma

I remember that game because it's the game that made me hate smiter users

[potent echo]

They seem to have mostly dried up in my region

Partly because they can't abuse the infinite smite exploit anymore

[lethal lagoon]

Smite is common, but people who use smite are pretty rare from what Ive seen.

People who use EP smite?

Literally just me from my perspective.

[potent echo]

Rare definitely

[hearty oak]

I just used it for the penance and shelved it cause its so boring. BB is more interesting than roleplaying as a microwave

[lethal lagoon]

I enjoy exactly because it's not interesting.

It's such a fundemental break down of this games mechanics

It almost feels like turning on cheats or pay to win

Of course I'll get bored after like 2-3 games in a row, but it's fun from that perspective.

[hearty oak]

That clip from Kusu shows otherwise

[lethal lagoon]

[hearty oak]

and it just reminds me its more of a telltale sign im playing with a psyker that only carries their purse taser and does nothing else

[lethal lagoon]

You know, I wonder if in games where I'm the clear 1st in damage, the non-scoreboard users think I'm just like normal smite users and aren't really doing much

[potent echo]

Doesn't matter what a pubbie thinks

[lethal lagoon]

Esp if that person is a psyker and has only used base smite

I'm just curious.

[potent echo]

Say gg at the end of the match like they did anything

[lethal lagoon]

People are more than NPCs

Pubs are real people with their own rich-

Nah just kidding.

They are NPCs

If someone told me I've been playing with bots, I wouldn't even question it.

[potent echo]

Very unique npcs

[lethal lagoon]

Wait actually I bombed the last game I played, so I can't make fun of pubs today

I'm the NPC

[hearty oak]

I dont

[potent echo]

Games only go bad if I go down

[lethal lagoon]

I was doing the stupid bubble penance

I hate that stupid thing so much

[hearty oak]

Game had to have something absolutely bonkers happen to get me to say gg anymore
