The worst part about running from crushers is that you might get OH-ed and you can't block

What about the two extra stacks of 5% brittleness? Is it not rly that important?

You can stack it to 40% still

potent echo
#

I think

#

If it works like the ogin weapons

crimson zealot
#

ill test it out

#

oh you're right

#

Yuh flurry it is then, thx for your help

#

Looking at only the modifiers, which of these two staffs is better for Flurry + Rending Shockwave?

potent echo
#

Warp res might be important, need to test it

#

Either you need 1 or 2 tics of quell makes some difference when edging

#

But for flurry rending you don't really need to edge

#

So either is fine really

crimson zealot
#

I read the Pysker Atheneum and it says to prioritize damage for Flurry + Rending Shockwave. Think ima be going with the staff with 56% warp resistance but higher dmg

#

Also, this warp generation doesn't seem too bad to me imo

potent echo
#

Atheneum is like a general guide

crimson zealot
#

Trueee

#

ill just bring both to a pub game and see which one fits me better

Thx for the help again ^-^

It doesnt suffer that problem like base smite, you can kill your entire cone of vision with one smite and vent

#

Just know when to swap to staff or sword

#

Like im one of the ones who said ā€œit becomes less good with a bad teamā€ with old surge staff

hearty oak

inb4 smite loses damage and just becomes a stagger only ability

Ep blaze vent smite is just ridic

untold niche
upper galleon
#

Fatshark generally wants the game to be more damage and offensive based while still having defensive options

#

I can see smite losing it’s insta stunlock everything before they make it a 0 damage

#

But then again, they have chorus in the game

stiff falcon
#

Chorus is just worse voc

untold niche
#

nah

#

i find chorus more similar to smite

#

CC so hard yo upractically dont have to pla ythe game

upper galleon
stiff falcon
#

Middle of the tree is just bad compared to other options, the cost is pretty hard when you outright lose damage potential

untold niche
#

i find the damage to be negligible

lethal lagoon
upper galleon
#

Also, chorus only makes the enemy wiggle with the least amount of stagger, and it drops your personal dps to zero

stiff falcon
#

Not playing the game that is

#

Just break aggro

It needs a cooldown increase

#

They’d probably hit cdr and overtough as a mechanic

#

Yes but not directly imo

stiff falcon
#

Infil is fine because only people who are actually good at the game know how to use it

lethal lagoon
#

Smite should follow the fantasy convention and have a 1-100 stagger range or something.

#

Reliable CC is bad for this game

stiff falcon
#

And the other is just laughingstock under powered compared to voc

I dont even think they will. Not when you have more annoying specials that spam gas and fire bombs. Its a good trade off

Ive played a lot of loadouts. Caxe zealot just pops off when given the right circumstances. While i know psyker void does big damage when given the chance, if they cant keep up with the zealot speeding ahead, then the artillery will be used for bosses

paper lily

the 15-20 viewer barrier is huge

lethal lagoon

Light viewbotting is definitely more common

the thing they're missing is you have to offer something of interest to a community to actually garner viewership

The ones who don't even try to hide it are rare.

even if you get one random stream to pop a few thousand viewers, no guarantee you get literally any retention

TBF, you basically always take throwing knives with knife though

eh, i think zealot is very fluid in terms of class choice

lethal lagoon
#

Nah, I even watched the clip, I should have guessed.

paper lily
#

in comparison to like psyker who for some reason can't bridge between auras blitzes and abilities

lethal lagoon
#

I mean with knife you kinda have to go down the knife tree, so you have to use a lot of points to pick something else

paper lily
#

i've seen it done more often than not

#

which is funny, because i think the other 2 trees are hot garbage

supple dock

This is my build so far

#

19 points to play with

I took stealth length because penance

paper lily

oh right you're new char

#

imo go 1 pt stealth and just rush invocation

supple dock
#

Hmm

paper lily
#

i think ur insane not going the tdr on crit with knife as well kekw

lethal lagoon
#

Yeah, half the point of stealth knife is tdr on crit

supple dock

oh

#

alright let's fix that

paper lily
#

that singular node is disgustingly op

supple dock
#

wtf is invocation

paper lily
#

bottom left near piety

#

the cdr node

supple dock
#

ooooh

lethal lagoon
#

It takes 20 points to reach there

#

I would take a point out of stealth for now then

#

And put in invoc

paper lily
#

it's kinda weak on knife, esp if u aren't using the mk6

#

but it's still really strong cuz on avg ur gonna crit more than not

lethal lagoon
#

TDR on crit or strealth?

paper lily
#

nah invocation

#

and this is in comparison

#

to evis or something

#

not in terms of raw power

#

it's probably the best node in the entire game

lethal lagoon
#

I don't understand what you are saying, invocation is TDR on crit.

supple dock
#

This is what I got for now

paper lily
#

huh? invocation is cdr on crit

supple dock
lethal lagoon
#

Yeah, you get basically instant stealth recovery with either knife?

#

Or do you mean the cleave on mk6 makes it even more dumb?

paper lily
#

no you get actual instant stealth recovery with evis

lethal lagoon
#

Ehh

paper lily
#

knives u have periods of vulnerability

supple dock
#

oooh because shred can crit multiple times?

paper lily
#

esp with the backswing bug

#

nah u just m1 preswing invis

#

u get 2 swings in invis, but in a horde you are likely to reset it on the first swing

#

here's my build fwiw

#

2 pts to do w/e with

supple dock
#

Saved!

paper lily
#

i don't recommend 2 pts for 10% more crit on piety, legit trashcan nodes

#

but yeah evis is simply the best weapon in zealot arsenal simply because of how stealth interacts with its swings

supple dock
#

I might mess with evis later but I'm kinda addicted to knife

paper lily
#

understandable

#

evis is just

#

there is no weakness

#

btw that pt in the middle, shield of contempt

supple dock
#

ooooh

#

that looks strong

paper lily
#

i can't remember if it's per proc or per person, but that point, especially when you are alone, is probably the highest source of dr you can get

#

but, if you stick to your team they can also benefit, meaning if you got a guy who just can't dodge to save his life u can just save his by proxy

supple dock
#

that's hilarious

lethal lagoon
#

Duelist no good on evis?

paper lily
#

duelist is never bad, but the point investment to reach it is nearly always too great

#

i do not value revenant at all

#

that bein said, i don't think evis gains much from duelist

If you get rid of shield of contempt, you can hit duelist and immunity at 1 hp

paper lily
#

i really just don't die enough to justify the pt cost

#

shield of contempt has 100% saved a psyker in the backline for me more times than i can count tho

#

like if revenant gave you some insane steroid for the duration and was a 1 min cooldown, i'd maybe consider it

lethal lagoon
#

Is that sprint ability super worth?

paper lily
#

it's okay

lethal lagoon
#

So you can trade that for duelist

paper lily
#

the 2 minor nodes aren't useless above there either, but it's 4 pts for what will likely amount to idk, 25% damage on hs/criths only

lethal lagoon
#

What do you put your 2 extra points in usually?

paper lily
#

depends on how i feel, the backstab cdr can be good if i feel like the director isn't sending hordes chunky enough

#

the top left dmg node is great for cleaving attacks, it's a flat 12.5% increase

supple dock
#

yeah I'm kinda torn between MS and 20% cooldown

paper lily
#

i don't use the attack speed nodes, don't need it

#

masters retribution is incredibly underrated

vestal fulcrum
paper lily
#

good balance kinda hits hardcore diminishing returns with how much tdr that build i linked has

rigid sky
supple dock
#

wait isn't fury rising any good?

paper lily
#

as much as ppl might want u to believe no

supple dock
paper lily
#

the second u hit fury in a room ur just gonna be fury the entire room till elevator

#

masters retribution can remove a class of disabler that can be game ending

supple dock
#

oooh

#

good for mutants and dogs?

paper lily
#

don't think it works on mutants, but dogs yeah

#

i mean like the disabler alone can just end the game ig, so trappers and dogs are all you're probably gonna care about

vestal fulcrum
#

Does it even work against Trappers?

paper lily
#

nah it's cheeks against trappers

urban sandal
#

no

supple dock
#

But it seems like I had a pretty good idea with the skill choices huh?

#

That kinda makes me happy

paper lily
#

fwiw i think people probably won't rate my build

supple dock
#

keep in mind I've done like no research on it

paper lily
#

but i liked where u were going

ornate hamlet
#

When you hit a certain skill level, pretty much the only thing that will end your run are dogs and trappers.

#

Mitigating one of those things is excellent

wind spruce
#

Never stop dodging

paper lily
#

the motion blur my eyes

ornate hamlet
paper lily
#

but people will similarly shit on masters retribution but put 2 extra pts into piety, on a knife build

#

it's likely your crit is already dipping into idk what, 60, 70% levels? you don't need 80

rigid sky
#

If my knife is 1-shotting on crits only

ornate hamlet
vestal fulcrum
#

Critting every 2nd attack is typically sufficient, no? (Assuming ~50% Crit rate)

paper lily
#

bro i run haymaker on my knife for consistency kekw

rigid sky
#

I would definitely want to upgrade 10% crit chance

#

Look at it this way

paper lily
#

i consistently inconsistently one shot stacks of ragers

rigid sky
#

70% = 30% to whiff

#

80% is 20% to whiff

paper lily
#

yes yes 50% increase blah blah

#

it's not damage taken though

rigid sky
#

Gaining 10% crit chance reduces the risk of a whiff by 33%

wind spruce
paper lily
#

@wind spruce ngl the motion blur on a potato is probably making it run worse fwiw

rigid sky
#

I'd rather go from 90% to 100% crit than 0 to 10%

paper lily
#

i'm the opposite kind of person, especially in dt and extra especially with ranged weaponry

wind spruce
#

(tbh i dont even know what u mean, probably)

#

can i turn it off?

paper lily
#

i don't build breakpoints for crits either

rigid sky
#

Ranged is different

paper lily
#

yeah it's in video settings

wind spruce
#

i just play game, no know how pc works

rigid sky
#

Since it is crit streaks

rigid sky
wind spruce
#

oh i see it

rigid sky
#

Because the crits are so powerful compared to normal hits

paper lily
#

if your entire build requires duelist be up for your entire playtime, you require a crit, i'd say your build is probably too niche

wind spruce
#

ty

paper lily
#

your game will look different

#

btw

#

if you actually run like dogshit, ir ecommend turning off ambient occlusion first

#

i couldn't stand mk3 knife, mk6 knife is barely on my radar as an acceptable weapon

rigid sky
#

I'm not saying you need to critmax

#

I'm just saying, don't shit on those of us who are doing that lol

#

Maybe we do know what we're trying to do

paper lily
#

i'm a minmaxer so, i want to just get maximum value at all times

#

this includes situations, 1 pt for 15% crit or 3 for 25 is an obviated choice for me

rigid sky
#

It isn't a single linear function

#

This isn't FFXIV

paper lily
#

never said it was kekw

supple dock
#

Soso

paper lily
#

but when the answer to horde is 'lol run away' i'm not playing that build

supple dock
#

wtf is this discussion about

#

someone summarize it pls

paper lily
#

just talking about those 2 points of piety

#

about one shotting some specific enemy

#

tbh idk what it's even in reference to

#

2 points goes a long fuckin way on zealot tree

supple dock
#

Hmmm

paper lily
#

many knife zealots play this way

#

and anyone arguing its horde clear is good is just wrong

supple dock
#

I feel like shield of contempt might not fit with what I'm looking for

#

Cause zealot is SO forgiving already

paper lily
#

yeah it basically multiplies your hp by a fuckton

supple dock
#

Hmm

paper lily
#

since it only procs on hp damage

supple dock
#

I'll try with and without

#

aah

#

What could I get instead?

#

So I know what to test it against

rigid sky
paper lily
#

uhhh

#

zealot has a lot of good choice

rigid sky
#

Knife vs horde is just to conserve ammo because it's still safe

#

And to regen ability CD

supple dock
paper lily
#

my build can kill anything no problem including horde w/ mk6 knife and i'm still not worried about one shotting stuff

#

i mean you said 'not fit what im looking for'

#

so what are you looking for kekw

rigid sky
#

OK, well, good for you, glad you're having fun with your build too then

paper lily
#

i'm trying to elucidate people on value of utility over raw damage

#

if you want moar deeps go for it

#

but understanding good utility abilities usually brings more consistency overall

rigid sky
#

Yeah, people here underrate defenses and utility imo

marble crater
#

Just don't get hit, game is easy

quartz barn
#

Tbf this is the psyker channel

supple dock
quartz barn
#

Everyone here either plays glass cannon or ultra cc smite bot

paper lily
#

if ur using knife and want deeps just go duellist

supple dock
#

o7

potent echo
#

There's glass cannon

paper lily
#

i make up for the dmg by running haymaker, a few sweeping heavies into ragers or whatever and they'll all die

potent echo
#

And then there's kusucannon

urban sandal
#

I try not to be a glass cannon but still get half my hp taken away from 2 poxwalkers from behind Sitgryn

paper lily
#

also gives that knife actual acceptable horde clear since it's 6-7 walkers per swipe

#

i make it work

#

lemme see if i can find a game from before i got sick

grizzled iris
#

No need to bother KEKW_ogryn

paper lily
#

per swipe proccing haymaker*

#

mk6 knife sweeping heavies

#

wow it's actually impossible to find a scoreboard where people didn't rq middle of games wtf

grizzled iris
#

If I remember correctly it only does damage on the first 3, the rest are just visual blood.

potent echo
#

Oh, idk dropping one of the damage blessings feel blegh

paper lily
#

it's been awhile since i tested, but i'm fairly sure you've not got to deal damage with it

#

like i said been sick

rigid sky
#

So regarding haymaker

#

is it chance per swing or per strike?

paper lily
#

def per swing

grizzled iris
#

Enemy hit

paper lily
#

i multikill ragers

rigid sky
#

so one swing activates the Haymaker kill, and then everything touched by that swing dies?

paper lily
#

ok now u guys are making me doubt my previous testing

#

gonna just redo it since it's been a bit

#

k yeah i think it's per strike

#

i must just be lucky

#

either way it massively increased my clear and for sure helped vs maulers

#

wonder how i was getting +7's on swings vs walkers tho

plucky flax
#

Of course you can kill by the regular damage + the proc

paper lily
#

in practice it didn't feel this way

#

oh it uses prd as well so you're guaranteed to get a proc pretty quickly

supple dock
#

I am currently running..

#

lacerate and uncanny

paper lily
#

lacerate just don't make sense

supple dock
#

don't have crits

#

or didnt, rather

paper lily
#

on zealot with scourge and knife ur already like 50% baseline so

supple dock
#

Hmm

#

got it

#

will swap it

#

for what tho

paper lily
#

and u can guarantee the proc with ur ability

upbeat wedge
paper lily
#

ur never gonna struggle with bleeds on a knife with proper ability usage anyway, i'd prob go uncanny precog

#

or if you will deal with armor another way you kinda don't even need uncanny

supple dock
#

will use knife for armor

rigid sky
#

Lacerate rewards you for hitting non-weakspots

#

which is a joke on a weapon with such a high weakspot multiplier

paper lily
#

whoever popularized lacerate on knife just longest running cruel joke on dt community

#

i get sad every time i see it

rigid sky
#

I have gotten so many downvotes on reddit telling people to ditch lacerate because it's shit

paper lily
#

seriously lmao

marble crater
#

Use both, apply bleed whatever you do chadgryn

rigid sky
#

If you must take a bleed, take flesh tearer

paper lily
#

i recently went through my reddit to look at old posts and was blown away by how right i was about some stuff in another game 6 years ago

rigid sky
#

because it's not like you're not critting

paper lily
#

massive downvotes

rigid sky
#

and definitely take uncanny with whichever bleed you take

#

uncanny + flesh tearer does more bleed damage than flesh tearer + lacerate

paper lily
#

nature of uncanny with bleeds

plucky flax
#

I like lacerate on zealot knife SadgeCry

paper lily
#

its ass sry bro

marble crater
#

On Vet I run Uncanny with Mercy killer together with the bleed on hit talent, it's fun thumbsup_ogryn

rigid sky
#

It's like the only purpose of that bleed on hit talent too lol

paper lily
#

those stacks will drop off so fast

#

gives you some nice combos ig

rigid sky
#

It's literally just to get mercy killer to proc

#

the bleed damage is irrelevant

paper lily
#

yeah i meant to proc it though :P

#

iirc it's just 1 stack

rigid sky
#

knives swing fast

paper lily
#

no doubt

marble crater
#

It works surprisingly well, not like I had a choice, Hadron forced my hand

paper lily
#

im not gonna shit on it but im ngl i get the same feeling about knife vets that i do w/ benediction knife zealots

rigid sky
#

It takes like 3s for the stack to decay right?

#

if it takes you more than 3 seconds to land a follow up strike

#

then you're using a thunderhammer

#

or an ogryn shovel

paper lily
#

eh you could just be in the shit

rigid sky
#

if you're in the shit with a knife you're gonna die lol

rigid sky
#

interesting.

#

vomits everywhere

paper lily

Yes I told you.

#

Lacerate good.

vomits even harder

is ruthless backstab any good

rigid sky

damn

paper lily

kinda wild they both exist in the same scope and do not stack

#

does it even work for throwing knives, ruthless backstab that is

marble crater
#

Even if it does, how often do you throw knives in the back of something?

paper lily
#

idk to save a vet who jumps to dodge

marble crater
#

Blame Fatshark for that, it's the default KEKW_ogryn

supple dock
#

this should last until 30

marble crater
paper lily
#

game really wants me to play vet

#

2 17% toughness curios in 2 resets

grizzled iris
#

On vet you go 1 hp 1 toughness 1 stam, psyker is 3 toughness

paper lily
#

i run 3x toughness on basically all my chars

#

don't see the pt in hp at all, esp with the way vet has a high toughness shield

grizzled iris
#

I run it on all except vet

paper lily
#

ur buffer becomes significantly larger the bigger you make your pool

marble crater
#

Psyker is also 1 stamina

paper lily
#

psyker is 1 stam if u run kd*

marble crater
#

which you should

paper lily
#

i don't run kd :P

grizzled iris
#

Give me a good reason for stamina on psyker

supple dock
#

I GOT THIS

paper lily
#

combined with kd it multiplies the block efficiency by magnitudes

#

rather than just an extra block or two

paper lily
#

you literally block twice as many attacks with kd combined with a stam curio than if you didn't have it

marble crater
#

Also sprint longer for more mobility, which is always nice

paper lily
#

less beneficial on psyker since with proper slide movement you actually gain stamina

marble crater
#

Sure, but I don't always want to slide when I just run around to collect material

paper lily
#

personal choice, but yeah stamina is by far the least impactful for that purpose on psyker

grizzled iris
#

So, you think bringing 3x stam curios is the best course of action so you can spam dodge while blocking and push attacking a DH that shouldn't have been pulled to begin with? All I see is a clown in full make up

paper lily
#

no one said 3 stamina kekw

#

pretty aggro response too for someone being just wrong

grizzled iris
paper lily
#

yeah that's just what he runs

#

you do not need 3 stamina to gain value from kd in the way i mentioned

grizzled iris
#

You don't need it to begin with that's the point

supple dock
#

It's normal to be afraid and need a bit more comfort

paper lily
#

you asked for a good reason to run stamina on psyker

#

i gave you a good reason

#

is that not enough?

grizzled iris
#

Kd is a good talent, but why build around it?

paper lily
#

it's one curio...

marble crater
#

You don't need anything

paper lily
#

it's literally a 100% efficiency multiplier to your kd node, which is a fantastic node as is

supple dock
paper lily
#

and this is coming from someone who runs neither

supple dock
#

Leave it be

#

He's convinced he knows better already

paper lily
#

no, it's not good to let people just

#

spew random misinformation about

supple dock
#

He's gonna do it anyways

paper lily
#

if he has an argument against that combo sure i'd go with it

#

the reason dt has so much misinformation is because people perpetuate bad ideas and don't question things

#

i used to be a lot more passive in discussion but eh, i'm happy to say something that i think might be factual and i'm quite happy to be proven wrong

grizzled iris
#

Yes it works well with kd, but why are you building around a talent that is a safety net for when you fcked up? Maybe put more effort into improving to the point where you don't need it to begin with.

It's a good talent, and if you need to put more power into it to make it better then that is a problem.

paper lily
#

building around is massive hyperbole with the advantage it confers

#

maybe you need to res a guy and you're being chased by 3 ragers?

supple dock
paper lily
#

they are all safety nets

supple dock
#

"maybe put more effort into improving" lmao

#

dude's entire argument is "git gud"

paper lily
#

his situation makes some sense but it also implies his teammates are infallable demigods for the emperor who don't heavy attack poxbursters in their face and need rescuing right the fuck now

#

now you might say 'lol just kill the ragers before ressing' yeah my bad he lost too much hp after he fell and i don't have that luxury

#

now what

grizzled iris
marble crater
# paper lily they are *all* safety nets

Yes, that's why I said you don't need anything. I have seen people run every possible curio combination and they are doing well with it. (Except that one ogryn that had 6 wounds, but we don't talk about that) KEKW_ogryn

vestal fulcrum
paper lily
#

stagger them with what? you're just implying the player has infinite resources to hand and always has the right tool in the right situation at all times

#

completely eschewing the concept of possible value you'd rather contrive a situation that bends to your perception rather than reality

#

kd node is good, a single stam curio paired with it makes it significantly better even

vestal fulcrum
grizzled iris
paper lily
#

i'm telling you what if this dude died 25m away through a fat ass horde and you have to hold that res key on him RIGHT NOW or he's gonna die + you've got said ragers

literally that easy

psyker and zealot are legit unplayble without at least +3 stamina
