BUT THAT'S HOW GAMBLING GOES

Is there any actual good interactions with new shock mauls and smite/surge staff psykers? I tried to play around with them in psykarium but can't really figure out their purpose

broken carbon
#

but the shock mauls are just really solid on their own

#

they can do really everything

lethal minnow
broken carbon
#

yeah its not really something to try to actively use

is it just me or are poxbursters not playing the sound

#

whats op

final cradle
#

I really love Psyker but Veteran just plays so much more comfortably

#

well I've seen clips of Psyker clutch in certain nasty situations but with vet I just go invisble, Psyker I just uh. die HEHEHEHE

#

feel a lot more dependant on a frontline when I'm playing psyker and beaming the shit out of people

odd siren
#

Well I'm asking what the best things the psyker has, specifically

#

not what is generally op

final cradle
#

oo I didn't even see your question brother sorry hahaha

odd siren
#

Oh i see i thought you were answering it, all g

final cradle
#

I believe it's trauma force staff and DS

odd siren
#

Interesting

#

assail isn't busted anymore right

final cradle
#

I've only really ever used brain rupture since it's the best (my opinion fingerguns )

potent echo
#

Puncture assail should still work KEKW_ogryn

only like 30hrs in Psyker though, someone probably here with 4.8trillion hours to tell otherwise

#

very silly

but the satisfaction of killing a special from 148 lightyears away is gr8

#

Might try it one time, it just looked silly to me hahaha

#

both assail and the other one

#

sweet wadi
#

a moment to appreciate this item on display here

odd siren
#

Assail was giga busted when it first came out

final cradle
#

Ahh yeah all the assail psyker's I've seen just sucked ass, atleast I saw Smite being pretty useful fingerguns

analog agate
#

Wouldn’t the best things psyker has include their op things by definition?

steel flame
#

but it shouldnt be relied upon as your main weapon which is the trap most people fall into

potent echo
#

Once you get used to melee assail you will be able to take on an challenge

final cradle
#

Hahaha fair neough

strong gulch
# odd siren not what is generally op

Colomnus is still going strong even with the small crit string nerf.

All of the staves are good.

EP smite + creeping flames

DS4, Illisi, deimos, and knife are all still great.

#

Assial is good. Close range was changed from 8m to 12.5m. Recon lasguns go kinda hard now. DS2 heavy 1 was finally buffed to be in line with the DS4 heavy 1.

#

No clue about the new weapons. Also, I just realized that I replied to the correct person but the wrong comment.

potent echo
#

Saul is fun on psyker

#

Saul is by no means a bad weapon

upper galleon
#

It isn’t tho psyker is kinda spoiled with their unique melees

#

It isn’t extremely finesse leaning either

#

One of sauls biggest boosts it wants it attack speed as well and psyker doesn’t get that

regal jasper
#

is mobility needed on deimos?

#

is the stat spread better?

spice veldt
#

you don't particularly care about mobility or warp res on deimos

regal jasper
#

the mobility is hella low

#

ok

#

so the double 80 is better?

#

do i risk it

spice veldt
#

i'd run the double 80 one yeah

regal jasper
#

ok

Headhunter

#

Kind of no contest if you are going DD or SG

#

Especially both

#

If you are doing some gun with EP build then can argue otherwise

steel flame
strong gulch
near wyvern
# potent echo Headhunter

If you go with DD you will have to pick True Aim. If you go with True Aim you don't get much value out of headhunter as the headhunter stacks reset on any crit.

near wyvern
supple dock
#

like while it wouldn't have 100% efficiency it'd still give a considerable damage boost, no?

lethal lagoon
#

That's crit of 5th versus crit on 6th, so assuming you only use recon, every 30 headshots the stars align, or headhunter gives 20% less value.

#

Which, honestly, not enough to care about compared to other options

supple dock
#

Hmmm

#

Good info

lethal lagoon
#

Because you do still get true aim stacks outside of recon.

#

But not headhunter.

supple dock
#

right right

lethal lagoon
#

So the crossover could be way less

supple dock
#

so while my logic isn't flawed this game sucks ass

lethal lagoon
supple dock
#

lmao

supple dock
lethal lagoon
#

Understand these nuts

supple dock
#

So the 20% less efficiency is enough to be a dealbreaker or not enough to be?

#

eat an entire acorn

lethal lagoon
#

Not enough to be obviously

supple dock
#

okay

lethal lagoon
#

It's 20% less compared to headhunter without true aim

#

That's hardly signifcant.

supple dock
#

right right. So good pickup

strong gulch
#

Acorn caps are fun to whistle with.

lethal lagoon
#

Oh wait recon's crit strings make this is a bit variable.

#

I'm sure the math is still fine.

supple dock
#

near wyvern
lethal lagoon
#

You are banned from gifs for today.

supple dock
#

I'm trying to find some kinda council of stuffed animals gif ;;

lethal lagoon
lethal lagoon
#

But you also have to consider that any crit resets headhunter, but not true aim, right?

#

Oh which it makes it worse

#

Wait so is headhunter worth it at all?

near wyvern
#

But that is any crit made with the weapon out though

#

I could check to be sure

#

But basically if you have melee stacked your true aim

#

Pull out your recon

#

And unleash your fire

#

The headhunter will start to stack on the first non-crit weakspot hit

lethal lagoon
#

I could see some fringe value in headhunter keeping EE up.

#

Otherwise seems like it would account for a small percentage of the crits

near wyvern
#

My advice is take Headhunter or True Aim but not both

rich spindle
#

headhunter is locked on mine so I cope that it gives me the highest possible infernus application

lethal lagoon
near wyvern
#

no headhunter with that

#

each of those shots reset your headhunter and look at how many true aim stacks you have left

#

tell me where is the value in headhunter with true aim

#

ofc if you miss some shots but... way too much overlap

#

true aim > headhunter
but in any case don't stack them both

lethal lagoon
#

Well my question now is if headhunter is worth it at all.

#

Even without true aim

#

Psyker is 17.5% crit on a gun build usually.

#

With a 4 crit string that's funtioncally 50% crit.

near wyvern
#

the math is not that simple

#

you have 17.5% chance for your next 4 shots to crit

lethal lagoon
#

oh

near wyvern
#

but that is basically rolled for each shot

lethal lagoon
#

Well that's still going to be a general 1-(.825 ^ 4) crit rate no?

near wyvern
#

so for each shot you have 17.5% chance your next 4 will crit

near wyvern
lethal lagoon
#

Which means 4 crits

#

so about 50% overall?

near wyvern
#

which then gives you 3 additional crits

#

if you only shoot 4 bullets

#

you will not do 4 crits with 50% probability

#

you could crit with the last bullet

#

or the second last

lethal lagoon
#

I guess in a controlled enviroment, but it's recon, you are going brrrr

near wyvern
#

yes but headhunter does help a lot IF you don't use True Aim

#

because for every shot that is not a crit

#

it dramatically increases the chances to engage your next crit string

#

assuming you hit heads

lethal lagoon
upper sun
#

you dont have to hit all heads just occasionally land a few weakspot hits while playing with your super soaker

near wyvern
#

with this I have 20% base crit, with each non-crit head I get 4% inrease in my chance to crit

you should always view crits from the frequency spectrum "how often will this happen?"

20% crit is 1 every 5 shots. That 4% at T3 increase in crit chance will be +20%/+17%/+14%/+13%/+11% increase in crit frequency compared to each previous shot

As you can see you get less value out of the Headhunter the more crit chance you have but the early boosts are huge. Compared to without, even two hits on this gun is 28/20 = 1.4, +40% increase in frequency. There is no need to constantly cap it out.

But because how True Aim works, if you manage to do a perfect headshot string you have 2 stacks to go before a guaranteed crit.

True Aim > Headhunter but headhunter ain't bad if you can't afford True Aim

lethal lagoon
#

If we take 100 shots, it's not 20 crits though.

#

From the base crit chance alone.

near wyvern
#

true, but we should count the bullets that have the chance to trigger the crit string

#

the only exception is True Aim

#

which can be stacked while in the crit string

#

which makes it so powerful

#

so if we take 100 individual shots, it will approximately be 20 crits with 20% crit chance

near wyvern
#

hence I don't recommend headhunter in The Atheneum

#

but dumdum + infernus instead

lethal lagoon
#

If we assume an absolute 20% over 10 shots, it's O, O, O, O, X, X, X, X, O, O

#

So 40 crits.

#

Dumdum + infernus seems like the only option for psyker yeah.

#

I just wonder if headhunter is worth for it vet.

upper sun
#

or anyone else

potent echo
#

Oh Lord there's a whole essay now from one thing I said KEKW_ogryn

upper sun
#

dumdum also works on the burn stacks

potent echo
#

I'll still take headhunter anyway

near wyvern
potent echo
#

Crit now is better than burn damage later, unless it's a boss or smth

lethal lagoon
#

I'm not missing it, but if headhunter turns out to be like 5% crit, dumdum beats it on vet of course.

near wyvern
#

the majority of the damage really comes from the bursn

#

which is why the VId (torrent) is the best gun

#

cause you can stack the fire up faster

potent echo
#

Like vs bosses?

near wyvern
#

don't mag dump reacons vs bosses, it does shit monstrosity DPS and starves your team from ammo

potent echo
#

Or just mainly bulwark/reapers

near wyvern
#

they nerfed that shit to the ground a while ago

potent echo
#

Because idk if it really matters vs a gunners

#

Or shooters

near wyvern
#

this is the VIIa, which is supposed to be the heavy hitter of the family and even that gun has +60% damage for weakspot, +45% damage for crit and +75% damage for crit weakspot... not good

#

just to compare, this is the zarona revolver:

  • +90% weaskpot
  • +147% crit
  • +225% crit weakspot
#

that's a gun where crits hit

#

Even the fan favourite CIAG has around:

  • +160% weakspot
  • +120% crit
  • +200% crit weakspot
quartz barn
#

yes but now factor in fire rate and the various dps'

#

and ammo count i guess

potent echo
#

Why compare those two guns?

near wyvern
#

The fire rate only matters for chaining True Aim

quartz barn
#

revolver is obv going to have better stats because it needs to have those to be relevant

near wyvern
#

The argument was about if recons are good to build for crit damage or not

quartz barn
#

fair

potent echo
#

I only care about ttk

near wyvern
#

Recons are good for building crit chance (True Aim hello) but not for crit damage. Use infernus to concert those crit strings into good damage.

#

As a bonus, you only need to trigger a crit string and can unload it on the body with Infernus to still get the full effect. Ofc it will be a tad bit slower to get to your next crit string.

potent echo
#

I guess you can get away with more bodyshots with infernus

near wyvern
#

+75% crit weakspot damage is not worth it, that's like not even an extra bullet, compare to CIAG which deals 3 bullets worth of damage on a crit weakspot

#

That's also the reason that gun just fucking melts

quartz barn
#

kinda wack how recons are basically build for basic ad clear which is less usefull overall

potent echo
#

7a has a little bit of cleave to go through groaners and poxwalkers

quartz barn
#

ciag just melts everything but is overkill for regular pox walkers, but no one cares about those anyway so it doesnt matter

near wyvern
#

Dumdum + Infernus on and you are good to go

#

And lots of ammo as well as long as you don't mag dump every single horde

potent echo
#

I wouldn't call ciag good vs hordes either

#

Maybe when you are firing it, but when it comes to reload it's over

near wyvern
#

CIAG is a tool made to kill anything that is not trash or a crusher

#

Ofc you can use it to kill trash but that is not the purpose of it

#

And then final note, DD which gives you crit and weakspot damage is multiplying the +weakspot, +crit damage and + crit weakspot bonuses, so as a rule of thumb if you have them over +100% to begin with it's gonna be good times, less than +100% and you are better off using Warp Battery

potent echo
#

This would be practical advice if they had the same point investment

#

But it's fine to know that it's not optimal

near wyvern
#

And how you can see this is check the weapon damage table for unarmoured damage. If things are double the value of body hit then it's over +100%

#

halcyon gust

Weapon Spec is quite easy. The most annoying part is not let the muscle memory to kick in

And if you use the revolver. You can get it within a handful of games

i keep blowing stacks on trash

halcyon gust

Just one of those you have to adjust your natural playstyle to it if you don't naturally use it

#

Only vet challenge is just getting the Krak nade kills

#

But those I have pay attention to what Malestorm has to offer

brazen rampart
#

Nah, the real vet challenge is marksmans focus.

#

Pain in the ass penance because that keystone is awful to use.

halcyon gust
#

I called it the "Curse of Crab walk"

brazen rampart
#

Like the damage it does is great, I had no issues killing anything above like 5 stacks.

#

The issue is repositioning and having zero melee capabilities.

#

I feel like a fkn slug!

halcyon gust
#

I hated doing that challenge

#

Never again

#

Weapon specialist was at least fun to do

brazen rampart
#

Frankly I think both weapon specialist and marksman's focus both need reworks.

#

Marksman's focus needs something to make melee be an option and needs something for repositioning, but that would put it too close to weapon specialist's current identity.

untold niche
#

what do you not like about wep spec?

brazen rampart
#

Oh I don't dislike weapon specialist.

#

I'm just saying reworking marksman's focus would make it too close to weapon specialist in identity.

#

So weapon specialist would also need a rework.

To be fair, do you think he has ever played smite?

#

I have LITERALLY never run into a single person using smite to do good dps

#

Never.

supple dock
#

or if he did if he didn't just flub the entire build?

lethal lagoon
#

I would imagine you'd have to pay that man to run smite.

#

Like if you go by my perspective, or the perspective of most people, they will never see a smite psyker top the scoreboard.

#

But like, we know with some lost brain cells, you can do it easily enough.

#

Is it even common knowledge you can extend smite with shriek? Or that creeping flames is broken OP and covers the whole map?

Not really.

#

Laspistol doesn't have crit strings, I think

buoyant maple
#

And on Psyker u can get to somewhere like ~50% crit chance on Laspistol with scrier’s gaze, then u have true aim to feed more crits

#

It’s not Columnus mk5 tier of broken but it is really strong

#

Also scales really well with DD stacks

steel flame
#

its nuts

lilac ridge
#

also helps when crits make you auto dodge ranged

buoyant maple
#

Scrier’s gaze +20%
Laspistol +15%
Psyker base 7.5%
Talent +5%
Aura +5%

52.5%

lilac ridge
#

scriers gaze is total 40% boost iirc

#

it starts at 10% and ramps to 40% if you dont blow yourself up

#

and make it to thirty stacks

buoyant maple
#

The ramp up is for dmg & finesse

oh you right, was talking about crits my b haha

I don' t vibe much with the hipfire

56-57% without true aim then true aim bump it up to around 65% ish,

True aim isn't a hard 20% because that relies on weak spot hits

And even when I'm really trying to hit heads with a ranged weapon my weakspot percentage only ever reaches 60% at it's highest

riposte

Shred doesnt count for your staff/gun right

haughty star
# frail harness

I like the sword on the right better. Too bad shred is locked.

potent echo
brazen rampart
#

Riposte is better in the grand scheme of things. Youre looking at 20% on a dodge vs 20% after you hit 5 times.

supple dock
#

both are fine, riposte is less hands-on and shred punishes you for missing a single swing

brazen rampart
#

Also the difference in stats is basically nothing so...

supple dock
#

so like, while they're both effectively the same thing, shred is harder to keep up

rich spindle
#

Precog > riposte

brazen rampart
#

That take is entirely dependent on the crit chance the psyker has at the time.

#

Raw damage wise, precog is better, but if you have enough crit chance that basically every hit is a crit when ripost procs, then riposte is gonna be dealing more damage.

rich spindle

No chance only more pokier head poke

How often can psyker reach 80% crit chance tho

I know it isn't great damage, but, I didn't realize the assail projectiles did ~130 damage to crushers on a crit headshot... measly compared to brain burst's damage to it, but, more than I honestly thought they would do. I wouldn't waste them on crushers, though, I would just use my dueling sword mk 4 on the crushers instead >.>

#

On a side note: Any tips for using scrier's gaze with a gun? Do I want to try switching to my blitz to quell peril, sometimes? :/

rich spindle
#

the effect lingers for 10s after it ends so I usually dont worry too much about extending it or popping at only the right times

near gale

Just worry about accidentally using my blitz as it reaches 100% and blowing myself up...? >.>'

rich spindle

you can pop and then hold quell on assail like you said to reach the +30% damage cap, but when you let go it will reach 100% even faster than before

rich spindle

I know it causes peril to gain more and more rapidly, the longer it is active

I don't know actually

near gale

My initial thoughts, and what someone suggested to me afterwards, were to take precognition with scrier's gaze and lingering influence with disrupt destiny

rich spindle
#

havent tested it

#

you typically use the DS4?

near gale
#

I mean it is only -20% peril generated during scrier's gaze...

near gale
rich spindle
#

the illisi is probably stronger than both for scriers gaze

#

overall

near gale
#

I mean I was initially making this build for the recon lasgun, tbh. :/

#

Mostly cuz I wanted to screw around with it on the psyker, ever since it got buffed

rich spindle
#

illisi recon lasgun is my go to combo

#

anyway with the DS4 every time you light attack kill trash that will be a weakspot kill pretty much

near gale
#

My general go-to build is brain rupture, venting shriek, and warp siphon with either a surge staff or a voidstrike staff(I am in the process of learning how to use the voidstrike(or at least I was the last time I was playing my psyker))...

#

with 2 toughness curios and a health curio

#

If I set myself up right I have 171 toughness... :/

rich spindle
#

having low toughness is fine because you get it back insanely fast

near gale
#

I... like having more leeway for when things go wrong... x.x

#

I can sacrifice 1 +15 toughness node for getting the crits make me count as dodging ranged attacks for 1s... which is probably extremely worth it since I have true aim on this build with the voidstrike :/

rich spindle
#

yes that node is really good

near gale
#

I kind of am tempted to sacrifice warp rider for either 15 more toughness or kinetic resonance, tho... more so the latter, since having a fast brain rupture is extremely nice for killing a dangerous elite or special...

rich spindle
#

are you using kinetic resonance on scrier's gaze?

near gale
#

For the brain rupture voidstrike build I am using venting shriek

rich spindle
#

I would only take that talent if my staff had bad boss damage

#

voidstrike should be fine

near gale
#

I mean... this is the voidstrike I currently have... :/

#

That or this one...

Personally I really want the one with Surge, since I want to see how it is with true aim

it also kinda sucks on some of the more open maps if your team also spreads out

you can proc true aim multiple times since void cleaves
