at least i don't have to get through rubber pads to open the back up
Those are ass
i hope the people who design screws behind pads have very awful days for the rest of their lives
uhh it looks good :333 tho FUCK YOU I WANNA REPLACE YOUR DOG SHIT HEATSINK AND FAN COMBO
Simply buy a mac then you dont have to worry about replacing anything 🙂
yeah aside from my brain
True
Or that pesky gaming thing
That's not gayming
Get stadia
Lol game on something else through a Mac is not the answer lol
Huge value honestly
Ummm actually some of us have more important things to do than game
If you have important things to do you use windows
Good thing every other pc cant do these things
I need my mac so i can move files from my IPhone to my Mac very quickly and check my email
can ur pc do that?!!?!?1
Yes
nah all the best art students use a tablet from 7 years ago
if you see macs theyre posers
I use a 4 year old quad core hp elite book to steam link with lol
Works like a charm
The days of Macs being the superior art/audio workstation are long past
Technology
I used to use my phone but it's small and gets hot
Despite what Apple zealots will tell you, PC hardware has been more than sufficient for several generations now
Got this craptop from a college auction for 40 bucks lol
BUT uhhh the M1 chip is so good it does everything!!! it even braught my dad back from the dead
And put 16gb of sodimm in it from my old piece of shit acer predator
on pure and trauma very good
personally, its been the only build ive enjoyed on psyker in my couple hundred hours of playtime
I've really been enjoying yell with a gun and dd
Ds4
purg staff + venting shriek + brain blast + warp syphon
has been my go to
for as long as ive been playing psyker
Not smite assail
10/10 would not bring on vent purge
with various force swords making an appearence
i do EP with deimos
ah, but counterpoint
creeping flames
you know
the funny kill all chaf in a 40 meter radius button
that creeping flames 🙃
Creeping Flames are goated
That's just fax
Unfortunately
They should figure out a way to make shield do some damage
Like things inside of bubble take dot
my psyker tends to never go below ~30% peril while in combat
well venting shriek just instaquells 50%
and if i get a couple of battle meditation proc off of it...
Ewwwwe BM
🤷
my build does mostly 2 things
a) never caring about peril management
b) BURN THE HERETICS
any time spent manually quelling in combat is time NOT spent purging heretics with warp flame
it is time wasted
and with the number of chaf enemies I kill, i get a pretty decent amount of BM procs
worth
this is the correct response
Warp Rider and One With The Warp are too massive to not upkeep imo
UNLESS you're using scrier's gaze or focusing on using smite
and I'm pretty sure those are the only real times to use battle meditation too
Maybe if you use transfer peril/warp flurry void
My buddy was watching me do the smite and surge with charges thing the other day and he said watching me was giving him anxiety lol
so smite with charges is fine if you aren't focusing on smite
If you use it almost exclusively for "oh shit make a little space" then that's fine
If you wanna use smite to dominate the world? Need EP
Yes
Yeah that build is more about the surge than anything
But smite+shriek spam is pretty hilarious at times once you shout a couple times
man i hope they dont nerf anything with the crafting update
there are still so many disgusting weapons that i couldnt built
i wanna try out all the cancer before its fixed
i THINK they are?
i think maximum theorhetical power of weapons is going to be lower, from what some people are saying
looking at their reasoning about how they came to that conclusion
im inclined to agree?
just gimmie a week to enjoy shit 😭
my best rashad has unarmored 3 flak 4 decap4 brutal 4
i wanna at least try it with unarmored 4 and headtaker 4 before it gets braught back in line
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b2fjIm8hYJY
found the video
despite SOUNDING insane, his reasoning is pretty good
yeah, ik
yeah ive seen that
he is
from what I've heard
psyker is going to be getting hit with the nerffstick
which yeah fair enough
I just wonder how they're gonna do it
that was an old buildof the crafting update
also there is no use in theory crafting until they come out with the Q&A
He soubds like mandark from dexters lab
besides they said more than once you keep everything and you get a choice with all blessings and perks
my theory is you lets say they release a new weapon
you get xp on that weapon for upgrading it from a base
and for playing that weapon
I dont care if they change everything up massively most of the blessings are boring
the more you play it or upgrade it the higher perks and blessings you can put on it
true, im HOPEFUL that the max power level will be the same if not higher, with the benefit of being able to REACH that max more easily and with more control
if you just buy a base and roll say groaners stamina bs blessings you have them in t3-t4
Id also like it if the blessings became way worse overall and maelstroms became legitimately hard even for vets
i think that would likely be best for the health of the game
if its not, everyone who has reallllllly good weapons right now is going to be not happy
but if you wanna change them into something you want you have to use T1s until you level up with the weapon
if you have max xp with the weapon
my one concern with this is the blessings that dont start at one
ex: powercycler
sorry brother
but yeah if you have max xp you can put any t4 you want
thats how i'm hoping it would work
i dont have BM on a TON of weapons, and they gain a LOT of power out of it
and grinding a whole bunch of pretty much dead axes until i find one with BM just isnt my idea of fun
idk they added numbers to single tier blessings which would mean they want you to unlock lower tiers of it
very true
you can legit feel the difference between BM t3 and t4
idc what people say
BM is kind of a special case tho, as it adds an incredibly flexible mechanic to weapons that can obtain it
Isnt the difference 5% weakspot
yes BUT
which EVERY weapon wants
Thats placebo bro
rashad has such fucking strict breakpoints
hell, even if it was JUST more weakspot damage
BM would be pretty good
Dont u have decapitator
ye
That might be why
maybe
although, yeah i forgot BM does actually start at 1
finesse with any extra weakspot does WORK
power cycler, on the other hand...
does ACTUALLy start at 3
and uh
power cycler gud
With headtaker you would not notice
just some asian try hards xd
Decapitator is a much more interesting blessing than headtaker, I hope it gets a spotlight in the rework
we owe much to the asian server 🙏 so much funny bs was discovered there
did you guys do the assassination mission elevator skips?
i haven't encountered that yet, or i don't know what you are talking about
it was fixed like 2 patches ago
a popular one is the map with the arena at the end, theres on box you can jump on
their pathing just breaks
shit was so funny
you have video?
in magistrati oubliette you could jump off the box in the final section to the boss arena
its on a harddrive somewhere
itll take forever
I personally don't feel psyker does need a nerf. It's the toughest character to play it should work well when played properly
I need to aee this
but yeah you could also go down to the lower level through a jump
aaaaaaa
FINE
FINE
You mean the assasination mission?
yes
And you just dodge slide off it

where is news
Heyo Everyone, Earlier this month, we released an Introduction to Itemization dev blog. After sharing the first looks of Itemization, we got a lot of messages from players. We collected over 13 pages of feedback, questions and concerns. As promised, we’re following up on them. While we cannot answer all of those questions yet, as some things ar...
oh i just found it, thanks for sending it as well
The amount of Mastery XP is based on what difficulty the player plays. The higher the difficulty, the higher amount of XP is awarded. Experience gained will remain the same, no matter the weapon you use the most during a mission.
If you fail a run, you will be awarded a portion of the XP just as with normal Experience and Ordo Docket rewards.
someone here summoned the blog
prepare for more noobs in a5mael
mic-drop.png
fuck im so smart
"Also, loot is still part of the system. The fact that we are still keeping the RNG loot system in place (Emperor’s Gift, Sire Melk’s Requisitorium, The Armoury Exchange, and the ability to Consecrate weapons at Hadron’s Shrine with random upgrades, etc) will allow players to get to weapon builds that they have not unlocked in their Mastery before they actually get there. The loot system will be able to shortcut you to things that you have not yet unlocked."
XP+RNG
real
@upper sun this is still the saddest part
itll be bad for a few eeks
" Every weapon now has the potential to reach a 380" thanks but i already have 380s of every weapon just unbrick them
io think much more than a few weeks
once new players recognize that more xp for harder difficulty surely everyone will play harder difficulties
"However, we can say that we’re opening up more weapon families to be shared between all classes. It’s still case by case, but for example, shotguns will be available for all classes."
AAAAAAAAAAA LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOO
Soooo wont 330s technically be better than 380s now
Because you can improve the 330 to an ideal distribution
But the 380 cant be decreased in dump stats
that assuming its cheap to upgrade to 380
330s are still random distribution
Yes but less likely to have "wasted" stats
You can't say, "I will max damage and spread and drop mobility"
The stats are predefined.
if its already "ok" at 330 itll be great at 380
if it took as much resources to upgrade from 330 to 380
as an average amount to get a god roll 380, then not much diff
because chances are you never would have kept a 330 wthat doent have max damage or max first target
DISCLAIMER: The following images are NOT representative of the final UI / work for Itemization. They are meant to illustrate the different potential stat distributions of a maxed out weapon (the darker grey number).
could very well take you 5 million dockets to go fro m330 to 380
(still mid)
Ah... so the low roll will never be able to reach 80
did you do the math?
or just anecdotal
Anecdotal
exactly
It can reach 80 if it rolled 80.
Lol
Thats not what I meant
But yeah
I get it
i don't kn ow whats the "average amount" either, the 5 million was just a random number.
But my main point is this.
you could just need one roll to roll a god roll 380.
From what im understanding each weapon is rolled as a potential 380
That it can reach
And if that potential 380 has 60% in damage you cannot go higher
ye
i think its calculatable, "with repetition and order does not matter"
though uh, one stat being strictly lower, i prob need to ask around.
Pretty sure any CS person would be able to answer this.
@upper sun @lethal lagoon
atm too lazy to dig up my notes, any idea?
its just a very slightly harder part of probability
clad you are doing masters
no escape
it's 300
Bm isn't about the weakspot damage
Woah...
Turns weapons like ogryn shield and Rashad into good hording weapons
Wow
I like seeing that. Same rng system will remain. So if ai don’t want to struggle through a weapon that sucks early on without good blessing I can always just do what I do now
Not like I will exactly need to do that as I have almost all blessings unlocked… but still like that option
Is mobility the main dump stat for psykers force swords?
warp res.
warp res primary, mobility secondary
If you dump mobility prepare to eat shit constantly
anyone stacks nvidia DLSS with the AMD super whatever thing
Shouldnt change anything until you hit your first dodge count BP
Force swords have above average dodges
Shotguns on psyker
Shotguns on psyker
Guys, you remember the numbers someone ran, right?
DD psyker with a slug shotgun one shots crushers
It also effects dodge distance
geeb us the shootguns
It’s an above average dodge still until you dump far down
Most things you dodge in this game are timing based, not distance based anyways
Considering we're getting new blessings (probably in the vein of the new weapons, aka more gimmick based rather than straight up numbers buffs)
I am hoping and praying
That force swords get some mercy killer style synergy with soulblaze
I need to double check the previous crafting blog, but they are aiming for 8-12 blessings per family, and more unique blessings specific for those families
Flechette scriers gaze ❤️
Honestly i can imagine some stuff like:
Hitting enemies with soulblaze increases soulblaze damage/deals more damage (probably won't do a straight up mercy killer but soulblaze blessing)
Maybe on the purgatus staff, enemies that hit max soulblaze stacks explode
(tbf that should be on the staff itself as basekit, it sounds way too cool)
Fellas, what weapons do y'all think we'll see on Psyker?
I'm kinda hoping for Power Sword but honestly they probably won't make that an universal
show final form
Gotta farm mats.
It'll take awhile. I'm playing between meetings while working remote from home lol

Will post back here
for purge staff specifically, could reintroduce the unused blessing that applied brittleness stacks, would let it start punching into armor
Honestly soulblaze should have some more oomf to it
Right now it's just burn but blue
soulblaze has fine oomf
the problem is that purge staff can be functionally replaced by PC+venting flames, and maybe even wildfire on top of that
is there any way for a purga + ds4 build to be good?
since ds4 needs DD and purga can't headshot
assail?
but even with assail would it be subpar
purge DS4 is like one of the strongest combos you can take
DS4 would be fine without DD
DD helps but its not needed
uncanny + stupid high base damage already puts in a lot of work
BB would be the common choice with that since assails role is already covered although assail wouldnt be bad
^p much this
ione thing that i don't like about going assail is the pathjing
i should try that ubild one day
actually wouldn't BB be very very slow
just to get 15 stacks
15 stacks wym
Only if you don't have the 3 stacks from spot kills
Youd take ep
DS4 is pretty strong without DD
EP BB + purge is great.
Normally
If your taking dd id probably take assail base BB is like unusable because its so slow
If your fine with EP take BB
psyker rarely has clear distinctions in power
BB with KR + EE + creeping flames + EP goes pretty hard with purg
There's a few instances sure
but almost everything psyker has is a tool that excels at what it does
if i go dd assail, do i path crit or cdr aura
if i go cdr aura need to take mind in motion
but does malefic mommentum affect purga damage much?
i mean in the case of this build
Likely crit
Crit benefits your weapons massively
doesn't purga have high crit already. i understand it will help with ds4 though.
I like cdr because cdr and the peril toughness. but yeah, mind in motion is sucky compared to MM
reality anchor or precog? (for gaze)
it's not even that purg has a massive crit rate, it fires stupidly fast at a decent crit rate
for the price of renewable ammo
^
do not forsaken me!
|| please reply||
Always precog unless you are going to do some staff shenanigans
Reality anchor gives you like 1-2 stacks more
thats genuinely terrible.

Yes
Precog on the other hand gives you a lotta stacks for just a couple weakspot kills
And more bonuses
If I don't have anything to hit then yes
Unless I want it to wear off and reset for next fight
So basically only if I miss time the start
Unless I do the sweaty staff lord gaze in which case you quell a lot here and there until you can't hold the Emperor's might anymore and you need to surrender your body for the enormous load
hmmmm, im thinking if i should forgo solidity. and take BM and the movement speed increase, but that would prob hurt my mixed horde clear since solidity would help when using purga
Yeah don't give up on faster quell if you use staves
The only time to really pair BM with Gaze is for the achievement or if you run void with transfer peril for gaze
i tried running void + gaze once (without transfer peril) and it was fucking miserable

It is doable but you have to sweat a lot to be on par with just any regular void build
i didn't even know when i should quell lol, that was a
So definitely not a recommended way of doing things, playable but ultra sweaty
a build.
so build ok?
What are your weapons? DS and Purga?
yeah
nah the build is for the weapons rather than the other way around
(yoshi was saying to take ep BB. hmmm)
If you want to build for the weapons you are missing a lot by not taking warp siphon keystone
For Purga
DS is fine even without DD
And Gaze finally works with warp siphons
You could use Purga to get faster gazes
EP BB also works yes
But if you want gaze gimme sec
for the ult
i don't really mind anyh
but i just chose gaze because i saw gaze reducing ds BPs
does ep BB feel better, or warp
This is what I would recommend to start with, alternative talents marked with same colour circles
Feel free to mod from there ofc
Gaze purg is pretty hard to pull off
Yeah but with this you wouldn't be purging while you are gazing
yeah thats fine, the gaze is for ds anyway, at least in my head
why do i want true aim?
for assail?
Also. no need for 6 charge?
Yes but not mandatory, if you drop the 5% movement speed you could also go for mind in motion to use Assails at the beginning of your gaze
No, you only use charges to get faster gaze
this is the kind of thing that would be cool to see in guide format like the ogrynomicon
You won't have enough time to get 6 stacks
i thought the charges was also to increase purga damage
Try googling The Psyker Atheneum
i did, but it doesnt have things like that
WDYM I have build guides
Gaze Purga is just not something I recommend 
...let me re read then
Oh
I have listed mandatory talents there
Which means rest are optional and can be changed as you want
ok yeah i see em now
Exhibit A, tells you which weapons are mandatory and which talents are mandatory for a given build to function
its been a while
Yes
yeah the 16% not relevant to purga?
why?
i was trying to get back to psyker after like 6 months of not playing but got ogryn brain in the middle of reading the atheneum
Not if you play it like this
can you elaborate a lil
You spam gaze for lingering damage increase
@winter bloom while you are at there take a look at shock maul and combat blade attack string tables and feel free to give feedback (can you understand it or not)
Already discussed with friend, gonna change the BG colour and things a bit to make less contrast with Steam guide BG and push symbol gonna be changed to something similar to ✋
ah, but what if i only use gaze when i need to take down armour with ds4
or is that a bad idea.
did you see the updated ogrynomicon with attack patterns?
Youre gonna miss out the less you spam
i think thats a good format
Thats why gaze purg is so hard
@untold niche if you want to play warp siphons for damage you take panic bubble
For creeping flames and gaze you use warp charges to spam those ults and try to get your value from spamming the ults not the passive buff for holding on to charges
No, should probs check
i get it now, the main power draw would come from gaze instead of the warp damage
because gaze has upfront 10% damage and 20% crit, along with the stacking 1%
Is this correct?
on another note, its easy to differentiate the attacks with the icons, but the number for light/heavy is harder to see
id suggest adding a big number in the corner of the attack icons

I checked this out, the ogrynomicon only tells you what flows into what. It doesn't tell you what to use and what is optimal. I prefer mine.
Thx will consider
it does tell you, but in text below the table, so if you prefer showing the combos with icons outright thats fine
Yeah I gotta at least try to keep the reading time under 5 hours
here i thought psykers would be able to read more than ogryns 
But. This playstyle is really hard for me to play. If you use gaze at the wrong time you won't be able to spam purg staff until it finishes.
How the turns have tabled
lookin forward to it, will probably poke more around this channel for stuff
why take the 5% movement speed at the bottom right
i understand it stacks with the gaze speed but uh, is the 5% that big to ignore a main node?
It's on your way to true aim, if you drop true aim for speed in gaze, drop the 5% speed and take mind in motion so you can quell while gazed if you miss time it and need to reposition
And also makes it easier to unload Assails at the start of gaze and also you can pop gaze at 30-50 instead of always at 0
Since you can just quell it down in the beginning
oh yeah i think you said that but i didn't fully understand, so sorry.
And you said the true aim is for assail right?
can i swap mind in motion for the second assail node, or its better to take mind in motion for quell during gaze
Interesting. Can the purg not proc true aim..
You shouldn't need the second node since you are using Purga as well, you will be gated by your peril generation and have hard time popping gaze
uh yeah thats true.
i was thinking that i might need it if there was a second batch of gunners, but i guess at that point i would pop gaze and slide over there
could you explain this as well?
Like
- Why do I want to do that
- How does that work

Use Assails to stagger on your way in, sprint slide throw repeat
If you time it right you only loose around 10%-5% movement speed
a defensive measure that's very much worth the price
And you are ofc immune to ranged while sliding
Without mind in motion you don't want to engage with gaze unless you are at like 0 peril to begin with. With mind in motion you can pop gaze at 30-50% peril and quell to 0 on your way to fight.
Spring slide quell is not fast enough for keeping gaze in control
And that's just purely because if you pop gaze at 50% and don't quell at all it's not gonna last for long
So you mean to say with mind in motion I can assail to stagger from far range, which will bring up my peril, and then immediately quell and walk up to continue doing what I need to do?
And I can't do that without mind in motion because I will be a tortoise.
But wouldn't quell walk be quite slow as well.
Like quell walk with MIM
I assume you can't sprint
Yes with mind in motion you can pop gaze, keep moving and throw a couple shards, quell throw a couple shards, quell, swap to melee and you will start at 0 peril when you swap to your melee
Yes you can't sprint but at times you see some ranged that you want to deal with and then a melee horde is coming at you as well
Without mind in motion it's hard to use any ranged options while in gaze
Dumb question why can't I pop gaze AFTER doing the assail stagger sprint and quell.
Gaze changes assail BP?
You can but only if you have time for it
Isn't gaze activation pretty fast
Not really but gives you more crit chance which makes assails hit hard
force greatsword when?
Activation yes but let's recap the situation here:
- sprint slide assail
- spring slide assail
- sprint slide assail
And now you have reached melee range. You pop gaze and you are at 30% peril. Without mind in motion you have to start bashing. With mind in motion you can move a bit more while first quelling to zero OR you can melee the dudes and then quell back to zero.
You could do the latter without mind in motion but it's a lot riskier without it since you can't reposition while doing it.
Confirmed 3050
💀
Why would you quell at melee range. Wouldn't you get hit either way. I mean you can dodge yeah but that seems like such a dumb thing to do.
Ignoring that, from what I understand of what you said, MIM doesn't change this.
So the thing MIM would change is quelling after melee. I imagine that the only instance MIM would help here, is when you need to walk out of ranged fire while quelling. Is that correct?
Why not just dodge slide then?
Pygex please don't secretly hate me

That's why you have the +20% movement speed. Footwork is a thing. Don't forget the enemy shooters as well. The only purpose to ever pick MiM is to guell while in Gaze to extend it during repositioning or to reset it to zero at the beginning of it.
Remember, more stacks means more damage and the peril gen ramps up over time but is momentarily slowed down when you kill stuff -> quelling is more valuable at the beginning of gaze, killing is more valuable at the end of gaze (and also enjoys bigger stacks on buffs).
Why not just dodge slide? Cause you combine them both for maximum speed.
Hmmm. And just to make things crustal clear.
Gaze is strictly for my ds4?
Or do I use it with afterburn from purga
Like do I puff puff then activate gaze
Or strictly
Ds4
The damage buff does increase your soulblazd damage but yes gaze is mainly for your DS4.
Without MiM you puff puff trash, quell, pop gaze, finish elites, let gaze run out.
With MiM you puff puff, pop gaze, level the trash, quell a bit, finish the elites, dash to next group and level that with DS4 until gaze end.
Footwork? I thought just back dodge slide xd
You can but there is more to footwork than just dodging
With enough movement speed it becomes possible to escape some melee attacks by simply moving
The melee tracking range is not unlimited
Most zombos do that insane lunging attack
Trash yes
If they do the slow one then yeah I see that happening
But to be honest I don't recommend gaze builds just because you cannot end it prematurely
Fucker you, you make it sound so fun
If you could toggle it off for a small refund on CD it would be so much better
It is fun but very risky and you could achieve the same if not more by playing creeping flames
It's the closest you can get to a melee psyker, let's put it like that
The only problem is, you still don't have enough toughness gen and big enough toughness and HP pool to be a proper melee class
|| that's how I leant void is actually a front line weapon, not a backline one but nobody believes me||
Void can be played both, I like to play it quite up front so I have easier time lining the trash with the ranged but if there are a lot of elites I tend to fall back a bit to give myself some time to hit them
I'm not a fan of gaze at all
If there are alot of elites I just stand my ground. Only when there is a mauler or crusher then I start walking back while charging and shooting. And only when the overhead comes then i back dodge slide
Have to be true man
That tactic never failed me
Void stagger is reliable
PC also reliable
Only time I would backlike is if its a very nice corridor and director says no progress for 30 seconds by dpawnjv in massive amounts of shit
But that's more of
No reason to frontline
And mh teammates want to frobtline so I don't move rather than me purposefully backlining
Let's just say there is a reason I have 8 example builds in Atheneum and only one of them uses Gaze
Hmmm but the puff puff would be helpful in mixed horde no? It's like a flexible tool the way I see it. As if as zealot you have both crusher weapon and a chaxe
Or puff puff only really for killing zombos
Yes. The only thing problematic with purge and gaze is that both of them are horde clear
I suggested a build only because you wanted to try it out, but I would go creeping flames spam or bubble with purga
Like the way I see it. If not confident can handle mixed horde with small puff and ds4 gaze, puff more first
Idk why but bobble purga seems really lame for me
You could go double shield as well for the kinetic resonance double buff for lulz
Bubble is just so good against beast of nurgle
And provides a safe spot from ranged
This is the Purga build I recommend
That's all about spamming soulblaze on two fronts
And the kinetic resonance across the map is also very nice
When you have gunners or a crusher pack inc
I made a comment about how I was disappointed we didn't save our medkit for darktide 2
it turned into that
ill try to use that line myself
it's a good one
That's a good line. lol
like holy shit I was clearly joking rofl
the guy was like level 950
I kinda stopped caring about how other people played at that point
hows this sword (i have one of these already)
at least i got 69 finesse
They're saying all shotguns will be available for all classes
Slug rounds gonna go so hard on my dd build...
According to a fella who ran the numbers
Slugs+DD one shot crushers on headshots
just get warp nexus and replace weak spot dmg
?
Change run'n gun for warp nexus and swap weak spot damage for flak
perfectly fine staff
^
if you could swap out crit bonus and quell speed that'd be ideal but whatever
don't need a 4/4
I don’t have warp nexus for this staff
Is cc some super secret meta stat ive been sleeping on? Pretty sure its bad
It’s the first surge staff I’ve ever built
do you recommend skipping on warp nexus instead??
crit CHANCE is fine, crit DAMAGE is garbage
crit chance is very mid for surge since it has a good amount of base crit and you'd pair it with nexus
Ranged weak spot damage -> Flak, Run n Gun -> Warp Nexus
but not like wsd would do you any better
How does the shock maul preform on sg how would you build it even?
Fair point
I like crit chance on surge cause pretty much ALL of its damage comes from critting so it's not terrible to invest in the main vehicle in which your damage actually comes out
in fact you realistically won't ever need another surge staff unless you do something specific
not as good as 25% on a specific armor type, but it's perfectly serviceable yeah
gambling time!
No I got it from brunt’s and upgraded it
It’s my highest power staff
It’s higher power than my flame staff I spent hours rolling
damage is dump staff on purg
burn is your main damage stat. that staff is a tragedy
It works really well
I use perfect timing and all crit related perks with it
i'd dump warp res or quell speed on purg though
damage helps a bit with packs of elites
And just spam secondary
don't need crit chance perk with warp nexus, already gives you 100% uptime on empathetic evasion and perfect timing, and you want 76% burn for maximum stacks+ highest stack application rate
Worm to the street ✊ 😔
just talk a bit more and the bot will give you a red name
could you repost my link 😭
ty
here you go
i haven't changed anything on it and I just recently hit level 30 so I'm wondering if I should just get rid of it and reroll a new one or what
It's shockingly good for a pre-30 staff, pun intended
just a good staff period
hmm while im not that big on surge id say the same changes as the one send ealier
barrage to warp nexus and crit hit dmg to flak
crit dmg to flak and ter bar to nexus
Crit dmg to flak and Barrage to Nexus and you'll have a really good staff ngl
lol
....lmao there's an echo in here
got it, tysm
Is it worth doing maniac over flak?
no its because this is the psyker chat
Does Flak hit any breakpoints?
i think it does but idk about dmg values
- i dont think maniac will hit rager breakpoint
i usually just go with flak because you get more use out of it
outside of a few select weapons where maniac is actually just better like ds4
if I had manic I still think it would be 2 shots not 1
ye so just get flak
and if i get proven wrong by the number bois in here you can always swap flak to maniac 
flak and change barrage to nexus.... now to get a t4 nexus blessing
if you could in theory change the 8% elite to anything else
what would you change it to
also maniac probably has a breakpoint on the tox flamer
😭
omfg it leaves trappers with literally 1hp
at heresy
that would mean it currently does 674 dmg
so with maniac% it would do 838 dmg
which still doesnt kill in damn because they have 900 hp
its over for me isn't it....
the staffs gotta go.....
also I kinda like the supression so I may keep it
nah its fine
warp nexus is crit chance right?
Some people consider elite damage on surge the meta

Second choice I mean of course
Flak is the clear first choice
i'll eat the flak chance forsure
cause I hate needing todo more then 1 on those STUPID ARMORLESS NAKED GUYS
THE ONES WITH THE SHINY HELMET, NO EYES, STOP EATING ALL MY DAMAGE
sorry
Flak + elites, unyielding, maniacs, 5% crit chance are the main options.
I believe I want to keep the supression, the 8% does help me 1shot some elites at heresy in the psykerium or whatever it's called
but I'll keep it open incase in a week I go "mmm crit chance"
oh is it that bad???
okay so literally my choices are
warp flurry (GODTIER) holyshit I'm so happy I got a t4 blessing of it
For Surge? There is no choices. You have Warp Flurry and Warp Nexus
run n gun (idk)
focused channeling (seems useless)
warp nexus (funny crit chance)
yeah but imagine 25% flak and maniac
or is the crit chance that good....
You are supposed to peril edge for warp rider anyways, so you will be sitting at an extra 15-20% crit most of the time.
Peril edging means you fire your rmbs at 60-80% and don't quell all the way down.
But if you are really new, don't worry about that too much
I mean you have elites, it's not like your other perk will be useless.
Flak + elites is pretty good.
Here's a standard Surge build btw, spam RMB and then use Shriek at 85% for max warp stacks.
Shriek will kill all normal mobs, ranged mobs, bruisers, and snipers if used at 85%+ peril.
yippee I love smite!!!
This is mostly a "There's no reason to take BB" type deal.
It's meant for using Surge staff like 90-95% of the time and spamming shriek
But yeah it's there as an emergency button
hell ye another blitzless build
If you wanna main smite, this is what I recommend.
Get EP Stack, smite till at least 85%, use shriek, keep holding smite, most of the map dies.
Also pairs with Surge staff well.
i swear to god almost 1:1 with my current build



nice atleast you dont use smite on its own
Bubble is fine to use so long as you know how to use it lol
is there a wrong way to use bubble?
outside of build
the only thing i can think of is using it on top of yourself whenever you're standing on a grate so it places it outside of the map
Smite is just being used for the bonus damage for dots no?
smite does damage
technically, but I don't think anyone runs smite for damage
EP smite does damage that I would consider actual dmg even outside of shriek. Regular smite? Yeah, that is used to keep em in place for shriek mostly
This is what's possible with just EP smite + shriek, without including things like battle meditation, allied auras, etc etc
Oh, and perilous
of course
Placement is key I suppose
anyone try once human?
I want to try a smite EP build
I'm glad EP smite does something
Squezing an entire horde sounds good
I never considered it myself, but it's neat it does that (With 85+ peril flames)
It's one of the if not technically the strongest psyker lol
in terms of raw damage? Not quiiiite there
in terms of facerolling the game?
yeah probably
Eh depending on horde size I can't think of something that would output more raw dps
blazing trauma
It only does better tje bigger the hordes get. BT is a much smaller aoe
bt is massive aoe, sec
No blazing is massive
Nothing is as massive as the funni yell or smite
And that is just one pop of activation
Blazing's AOE is notably larger than the SFX makes it seem

Blazing trauma is wild
I've used it a few times and felt it was kinda meh
I’m fully prepared for then to nerf blazing for update. Even though it isn’t used by 99% of psykers
you crit twice and everything not an elite in that circle dies
I mean to each their own, may also depend on your traumas aoe stat
Is this after things die and proc wildfire?
i dont play trauma event because i fully expect it to get nuked out of the game
I used trauma before I got a good blazing with flurry + channeling pre patch 13. It was still really good
This shows the difference with blast radius, if you weren't sure after my answer
My trauma is everything 80 and 59 quell
then idk skill issue
Trauma will always be insanely good unless they change it to having a stagger limit/no infinite cleave
yeah at that point it's understanding the weapon
What beaut
oh. you don't have warp nexus on it
I wish that was mine
You should get warp nexus on it, you'll feel a lot stronger
That was when I rolled it lol
got it
You quell canceling baz?
It makes a difference for sure
question about building my voidstrike: I got surge 4 and wapr nexus 3, with maniac 3 and stam. so stam for carapace and maniac full or get warp nexus 4? or instead of maniac crit chance?
Voic
Trauma
Both needs to be nerfed
I imagine we will see some nerfs considering this update will make it a lot easier to craft ideal stats
It was so long ago I can’t remember what trauma was like before its bufff
Didn't they just buff surge(the blessing), I'm not sure they're interesting in nerfing Void
False stats will still be rngesus
Heyo Everyone, Earlier this month, we released an Introduction to Itemization dev blog. After sharing the first looks of Itemization, we got a lot of messages from players. We collected over 13 pages of feedback, questions and concerns. As promised, we’re following up on them. While we cannot answer all of those questions yet, as some things ar...
Literally all it says is that 380 does not mean 80% on all stats
It literally says you can max out all weapons now
Meh, there will always be some rng which is absolutely fine. If the update just makes it so we have to get a good stat distribution (like we do with Brunt now)… it will be very easy to get god rolls
Yes but the stats will still be rngesus
Like it in theory might be better to get lower bases as it gives you more stats to add in
I don’t think that is bad though
as all weapons can be made into 380s
Like this poor shotty with damage as a dump stat
just a larger resource sink
380 don't mean shit it's all about distribution
Yeah, like now. But it will be more forgiving than it is now
Word
Cause you can get a 320 with a potential god roll
man i legit dont care just give me free blessings and perks
i playde this game long enough to have multiple bricked god rolls of each and every weapon
name a weapon on any class i have a brick of it
also means that currently existing low rating weapons in our inventories might turn out to be good
I only got like 500 and I've got a decent version of most of the things I've got
legit also meaningless
Yee like my revolver will have 60 mobility
If you have weapons with a true dump stat the dump stat will just be brought up

🤓 gee i wonder what my 59 mobility 379 revolver would look like after the update
60 lol
they didnt have to delay this update 7 months just remove the locks and thats enough for me
WOAH GUYS I WONDER WHERE THAT 6 POINTS IS GONNA GO
zamn i cant wait for those extra 5 points!!!
79.5 to 80 game changing
all into mobility of course, because that's what the max roll will end up being
worth all the dockets i'm gonna pay
Don't matter cuz that Thang is bricked
1 million per point easy deal
Ultimately i guess it will make getting god rolls maybe 10x easier
What, did you really think they'd let you just dump resources to get a perfect weapon? Hahaha
Incoming: There is nothing to grind for. This game is boring
IMO god rolls & so on are just a secondary or tertiary matter
the only thing i upgraded and used was a chaxe
I like going into the game and killing a bunch of shit i don't care if my weapon does 5% less damage
I think i've only ever earnt 10mil in total...
Oh just play auric man you'll make tons lol
Haven't played for a bit so i'm not sure how much each auric gives, might be closer to 20m
~500 missions in total, ~250 of that aurics
auric on average gives 45k ordo dockets per successful mission
I have no idea how much you guys must be playing to dump xyz million into one weapon
Then again i've been spending all of my money on buying weapons with new blessings
You've earned about this much on the aurics alone
Two shields worth
you can get an auric maelstrom level weapon on average under 5m
All in all i think i'm in the sweet spot where the crafting update will actually be useful
I've been doing fine in auric mael with subpar weapons
It's not enjoyable though (depending on teammates), outside of melee only
WE DID IT REDDIT
hm?
grats
I have 15 mil rn, I could spend that pretty quick
I have spent disgusting amounts of dockets and plasteel to farm blessings and good bases
Really sucks
To be fair I have a disgusting amount of plasteel iirc
I just end up using a lot of it
350k I think
I don't really make any weapons
Nothing feels good to me other than a few
Don't do it. Your brain will rot until there's nothing left.

Wtf
JERMA?
This is like the "series of unfortunate events" series but fortunate
go play the lottery
that entire clip is bullshit\
Come on everyone, laugh with me at the poor.
Also I have created the ultimate power move
is it altf4
Group that's annoying the shit out of you. You're in a clutch situation. You handle the clutch to the next spawnpoint. You fight, clear everything, you're safe. Leave.
alt f4
we found the boston bomber!
oh yeah i legit thought about doing that once
I like kicking the annoying guy just before round end
i wanted to do that the other day
out of sheer spite
I've done that twice
I think you are misunderstanding
I have this one clip because I don't really record
Not because it's rare

I remember specfically deciding to do a meme melee psyker build right after playing EP smite.
I ran straight on into an Og gunner and died within the first 5 minutes of the game

I legitmately forgot that the game had threats in it.
You know what I watched it again and I can't decide if that series of events involving the poxburster and the dog is lucky or unlucky.
pikachu face when running into a reaper is not the best idea at times
how could this have happened
how could i have foreseen this
by what will was i placed upon this earth
There are no bad ideas when playing Ep Smite
Except using bubble

And well playing EP smite in the first place

the entire clip is a spectacle
you will never convince me otherwise
Are you forcing me to play EP smite again for more clips

How else do I convince you that's just normal gameplay

especially when u don’t have something to actually stagger them out of shooting
i tried to fight a reaper pack as a vet two games in a row with melee alone
i did not learn my lesson the first time around
any reason i should pick this up?
games with me in them would be more difficult if the game spawned more reaper packs for me to be overly confident fighting into
I have never used the infantry lasguns
ok
Arent they Bad
i havent played psyker in a long time i want a new build. idk whats good. i would love a support build i think
More like Power crept
real
dueling sword jab my beloved
Mk IV and Ia can do some work
I think bubble shield is the closest thing to "support" you can do as psyker
duelling sword my beloved
On vet, the two instances, I spent my VoC staggering a single reaper and got gutted by the other reapers and ranged enemies that were around (pikachu face when enemies all shoot at the one player that is in perfect sightline and close range of them)
I always forget when I have a weapon that doesnt stagger reapers
And they keep firing at me
how DARE they
that is NOT normal gameplay
there's no fucking way
you are CONSTANTLY that fortunate
go play the lottery
how do u feel about the ds being on other classes
i feel like it’d be very
meh
I get grabbed by a quiet mutant and then throw into a dog, I dunno about "lucky" just cause things worked out...
D:
No.
I play like a crack addict, that's a normal moment.
Look at the video title.
Suppressing them
i'd say it'd be pretty damn good
Can you imagine duelling sword on zealot....
I only clipped it cause we were having a dicussion about KD on ep smite
other classes have ranged weapons that can fit the role of hordeclear
crusher one shot when
even braced auto is fine
unironically i'm pretty sure duellist + other buffs on zealot is enough for a crusher oneshot on crit
why is a stupid metal toothpick better against crushers than a fucking anti tank hammer
you need almost max stacks of martyrdom, duelist, and +carapace
except the one thing that should melt crushers
also a high pen stat
i think like 76
with psyker, +carapace, scrier's, DD, and/or warp rider (i forget what exactly) is enough for a crusher oneshot on crit weakspot so that's the numbers i'm using as a baseline
nah i just meant i'm thinking of those buffs when doinng my rough in-the-head calculations on zealot
oh thammer
i was remarking on duelling sword on zealot
fair
is it weird that i think scriers gaze is overkill with DD on a ds
cuz like
DS already melts everything with high stacks
just poor horde clear
idk
maybe i’m weird
scrier's hitting crusher oneshot and giving crit chance is a pretty good deeal to me esp since i don't make particularly good use of shield
though i certainly could use shield better
and scrier's being nice for boss damage with duellies when you have DD stacks up to make use of crit weakspots (or just crits when hitting the weakspot is not feasible)
im not nearly as good as u so
i need my shield
i run assail all the time which reduces the need for shield
and i take all the toughness regen talents on my usual build which allows me to play even more stupidly with ranged enemies
so it's just when i get absolutely annihilated faster than my reaction time that ranged enemies are problematic or the consequences of bad-positionitis comes to bite me in the ass by having put myself into an irreversible situation
my only complaint with psyker
yeah like that
Lol
Why do gunners hit every single bullet sometimes
at least psyker doesn't have too much of a reason to be up close or in too-threatening of positions
my perspective is skewed cuz i always run degenerate trauma + assail so maybe i shouldn't be talking though
One message removed from a suspended account.
One message removed from a suspended account.
my muscle memory is too much from zealot, so i instinctively slide towards gunners
the 500 iq (me) will say to run blazing spirit + rending shockwave
and then get surprised when i get obliterated
(pikachu face)
i do that but i have assail to stagger enemies or for position/distance-agnostic toughness regen
u and pikachu face
i love my pikachu
