LMFAO

[broken carbon]

what difficulty r u on

[thin finch]

I love smite hater

Their are oscillating between "it's too op" or "it's absolute shit"

[broken carbon]

its not really OP

or shit

its just boring

[thin finch]

say that to the smite hater

[latent mauve]

It can be extremely op

It is extremely boring no matter what

[upper sun]

smite is either deletes the game or deletes the psyker from the game

[formal harness]

its only overpowered if your team is dead or braindead

i love how the last picture is a furry lmao

[broken carbon]

lmfao

yeah

[fresh reef]

gonna try out this thing

hoping it goes okay

[upper sun]

real

[fresh reef]

infatry las was pretty fun too

surge was sorta, eh

[broken carbon]

speed load?

[fresh reef]

doesn't really have the snappy burst I need

[fresh reef]

specifically for elite packs

[upper sun]

🤔

have you tried clicking faster

[fresh reef]

si

surge simply does not obliterate crushers like void does

[upper sun]

ye

[broken carbon]

fair

[fresh reef]

and like, I wanna have the thing in my back pocket that obliterates crushers
but just not void becuase void is disgustingly good

[upper sun]

playing surge optimally at higher threatlevels requires a fuck ton of clicking

[fresh reef]

ya

if only it had surge blessing

[formal harness]

clickity click time it is

[upper sun]

wowwow instead of dealing 150-300 damage(randomly) to one target it does that twice for 25% peril

[fresh reef]

dumb question, is it just me or do these pants in particular look extremely comfy?

[upper sun]

not cargo shorts 5/10

[fresh reef]

does any class have cargo shorts?

[upper sun]

ogryn prolly

fits the type to wear em

[fresh reef]

honestly I wouldn't mind reskins if more things used the ogryn tiger print pants texture

tiger cargo shorts 🙏

I will not barrel my team for melkbuck

[upper sun]

i got "ledged by """""accident"""""" after doing my monster kills on my second zealot

Fatshark is cultured for the tomboy abs

[strong gulch]

When I was doing malleus monstonum before it was private, I had an ogryn throw a box of grenades when the monster's was nearly gon, and that was enough for me to not get the penance.

We sat there forever with me just BB a monster.

[upper sun]

bruh

[late sapphire]

so as a psyker what you can do is explode yourself next to a ledge barrel

[upper sun]

team healcucked me

and woke up not one but two dhs

[late sapphire]

the barrel gets ignited, your mates run over to res and all get tossed off the cliff

i have done this many times

[upper sun]

these people are all blocked

[strong gulch]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-explosion-headbutt-funny-love-gif-25033864

[upper sun]

two vets woke up two dhs and its on me

[hardy flower]

Kinky

Hot take but you can wake up the DH but only if you have a shield Ogryn

I’ll take the extra monstrosity for melk

[strong gulch]

Sorry teams are being terrible.

[upper sun]

bruh the dh went straight for the vet

i was in melee

and the ogryn still blamed me

all these people are FUCKING BLOCKED

[hardy flower]

That’s just all og mains being cancer

Tell them to be less idiotic and get back in formation and they’ll simmer down

[upper sun]

DH number 2

[restive ice]

that's what you get for being a psyker with 0 brain

[upper sun]

i need a cigarette 😭

now i have to wait an UNKNOWN amount to time to play scabs again

[brazen rampart]

If it's any consolation, I got killed by a dh last night because a mk6 recon vet couldn't watch his fire.

[thin finch]

DH woke up
Attak the VEt, who woken it up
"Fuck psyker"
Dumb ass

[brazen rampart]

I literally pinged the dh and he still fucking shot it while I was in melee with several bulwarks.

[thin finch]

anyway as the best player ever I just died because of the bonbon exploding on death

[restive ice]

ping it mean shoot it

i shoot

[thin finch]

I had HP left and it killed me

[upper sun]

i was doing so well i had only 2 toxic players before that

[brazen rampart]

You died to a burgle exploding?

[thin finch]

I think it took another guy with me btw

[brazen rampart]

Weak.

[upper sun]

now the count is 3 at 1.6k hours

[upper sun]

i died to a dog because i mentally gave up after that

[brazen rampart]

I have like 12 players blocked total and that's mainly due to them being completely braindead in auric maels.

[thin finch]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[brazen rampart]

Only 2 of them were blocked for being toxic.

[thin finch]

I might be in the 12

[brazen rampart]

Idk... most of them were psykers.

[thin finch]

I am very probably in the twelve

or not

because we are not on the same server or some shit

[brazen rampart]

I only play on NA East servers.

[fresh reef]

"fuck over team with soulblaze"

???????

[thin finch]

I am a Chad EU player

[upper sun]

first dh the vet that was talking shit walked into

i need to get a propper headset so can queue up with people from here frfr

[fresh reef]

Like, even if he thought soulblaze triggers DH (it doesn't) you weren't doing anything soulblaze related until after it was awake

[upper sun]

(and a stable internet connection lmao)

[upper sun]

ye

it was in second stage not attacking

[fresh reef]

I'll play with ya, comms optional

[upper sun]

idk what the vet did

[upper sun]

us servers 😭

[fresh reef]

120ish ping should be manageable

I'm good for it

[upper sun]

#psyker-class message

thats my US server experience

[thin finch]

pprobably flashed it (with his peanus )

[jovial juniper]

Probably stayed "too long" in the radius

[upper sun]

in the future sure im too pissed for today

[jovial juniper]

Or looked at the DH

[fresh reef]

Understandable honestly

[fresh reef]

This doesn't do anything for DH aggro

Nor do flashlights

[jovial juniper]

I know

[fresh reef]

I c

[jovial juniper]

I usually ping them to see if I'm at least 8m away from it

[fresh reef]

I should've expected that to be a joke from the Chad using perfectionist DD tbh

But I'm autistic and drunk atm, so sue me

[jovial juniper]

Idk who Sue is

[fresh reef]

I'm gonna explode you

[jovial juniper]

Speaking of DH aggro, I heard that you shouldn't run near it

[ornate hamlet]

They just want to give us hug, sibling 🥺

[restive ice]

call me mutant the way i want to choke slam you against the ground 🫦

[brazen rampart]

No matter who woke it up, it aggroes to the nearest person, iirc.

That's why I died to one last night.

[broken carbon]

no

it’s whoever did damage to it/shot near it

[knotty island]

Yo guys is there a build compilation that I can view?

[jovial juniper]

Due to morality I will not talk about the DS4

[broken carbon]

not really, there’s a thread for builds but it’s kinda ehh

[knotty island]

There are so many messages i nbetween builds in the "builds for space wizards" thread that it's hard to navigate

[broken carbon]

are u trying to make a build?

[latent mauve]

nope

[knotty island]

Just kinda trying to see if I like psyker

[broken carbon]

are u sure?? i’ve definitely had a host aggro onto me even though i was the furthest from it

[knotty island]

I have tried head popping and that is so lackluster in my opinion but mind you I came back and played 1 mission of each

Assail seems to be the coolest, the build that I copied in there for it made my head explode though (It was filling my insanity meter gradually and I kept blowing my self up)

[radiant frigate]

reminds me of this one i made for general siliness

i think i do not have rampage

first one i decided to roll after i got a solid base

[crisp yacht]

Cleave targets not important stat on dc sword?

[radiant frigate]

if i had to guess, no, but i am also not particularly experienced with these things

[strong gulch]

There is the Atheneum in the pins. There are example builds at the bottom. Other than searching something like "in:#psyker-class gunker build has:image", your best best is to ask.

[knotty island]

tyvm

[plucky flax]

You can try UnsanctionedPsyker/AgentChaos on youtube for high level builds.

[strong gulch]

True. Straight up just take them.

[lethal lagoon]

Did you shriek or PC it by accident?

So if you those abilities apply warpfire to a DH it won't pull it.

But you will get aggro if someone pulls

[zinc phoenix]

I wonder if you do bonus damage to BoN if you boom as psyker inside it

[proven beacon]

Been a while since I last played Psyker, what's new? I've heard purge staff is in vouge now

[broken carbon]

even not on psyker

[lethal lagoon]

So the game is always listening for audio, even on push to talk

So maybe you were loud RL?

[neat dome]

Anyone around wanna help me get this brain burst Penance done on private?

[jovial juniper]

Warp Syphon Bleed Bolt Pistol psyker

[upper sun]

if no one helps ping me tomorrow around this time

[echo turtle]

I'm pretty sure venting shriek/perilous combustion /wild fire is still the go to for damage, use whichever staff you like and it pairs well with smite and warp charges.

Gun builds with scriers and either Disrupt or empowered smite also work

Generally, guns and assail pair

Otherwise use smite.

BB is way too slow for the intensity Darktide has now.

From there, Scriers is ideal for guns. Shield is cool, venting shriek pumps out huge damage and clears hordes for free.

Beyond that, pick your poison.

For weapons. Void and surge seem as good as ever, Columnus still rocks. Trauma is solid. If purge is good now that's news to me.

[upper galleon]

you can BR build you basically just have to invest your build into it

[echo turtle]

I don't see how that is going to perform as well as just putting points elsewhere

[upper galleon]

extension node that gives you cast time reduction on ability use+ EP lets you chain kill elites

purge is still good it's just niche, but it's a great pair with BR

[echo turtle]

You can chain kill elites with the staves too though, probably faster.

I haven't tried it in a while but it felt brutal when I last tried to make it work

[upper galleon]

125% faster BR with both buffs active

[upper galleon]

only if they are lined up (void) or bunched up (trauma)

[echo turtle]

I'll give it a go, it's been so long since I've tried it. Maybe it's gotten some love since like 6 months ago I wasn't aware of

[strong gulch]

BB go brrr#psyker-class message

[brazen rampart]

Well I definitely didn't get near that one last night and it still chose to murder me.

[echo turtle]

How many bursts to kill a crusher now?

[upper galleon]

2, it's bulwarks that are a pain at 3 with no buffs, especially if you don't have Kinetic resonance up

[echo turtle]

Interesting

Flayer was always a skill I loved. It may not be strictly optimal but it felt so good

[upper galleon]

BR is absolutely great vs spread out gunner/shotgunner swarms, since you can just peek cover, get the lock

flayer is just, if you have a spare point it's aight

[echo turtle]

Yeah it's how I ran my psyker pre rework

[upper galleon]

ntohing stops it from being wasted on a poxwalker and the CD is brutal

[broken carbon]

yeah idk

[echo turtle]

I found it's not that common walkers eat it for an elite

[broken carbon]

i’m gonna test to later

it

[upper galleon]

god damn psyker point allowance is so fuckin easy

[echo turtle]

When you're doing rupture, you taking shriek then?

[upper galleon]

that or double walls

shriek gives more peril resistance and more offensive power, double walls lets you keep kinetic resonance more active

[echo turtle]

Ok, I like the walls, but it's hard to let go of the insane damage from shriek

Kinetic resonance?

I'm not remembering what that is

[upper galleon]

the not flayer node

[echo turtle]

Ooooooooh

[upper galleon]

using combat ability gives brain rupture 75% faster charge and generate 50% less peril

[echo turtle]

Faster charge after a blitz

[upper galleon]

ability, BR is the blitz

[echo turtle]

Ok, yeah I see how shield would work well with that

My b

Double shield

Which is the superior shield

[upper galleon]

EP is 100% cost reduction, 50% cast time, 50% damage.

[echo turtle]

Ok, so those ruptures would be popping off pretty fast

[upper galleon]

double walls lets you stun all the close range specialists

that's another reason, with the BR EP build your peril gen lowkey sucks

[echo turtle]

Alright, I want to give this build a go, I've been bouncing between gunkers and a shriek/staff pretty much exclusively so this sounds like a breath of fresh air

[upper galleon]

so vent loses a tiny bit of value, shriek gives up to 25% less peril gen, KR gives 50% less peril gen, you get 10% from talent tree pathing, and EP is a whopping 100%

[echo turtle]

Yeah, vent and smite are like PB and Jelly in that way

That's also my gripe with the purge staff. It would work so well with vent but it generates peril so slowly

[echo turtle]

I use it with a surge or void

[upper galleon]

the one between creeping flames and venting shriek itself

[echo turtle]

Those builds flow

I'm not sure if I am taking that skill, unless it's baked into shriek

[restive ice]

you have to take it if you want to get creeping flames

[echo turtle]

Ah right gotcha I see it now

[restive ice]

i think i read the description for it once at like level 15 and never again

[upper galleon]

it's lowkey underappreciated

in auric it's basically always going to hit 25 enemies

[echo turtle]

Does BR proc true aim?

[jovial juniper]

2 times

But it can't crit

[echo turtle]

Ok, That's solid

I just slapped a brain rupture build together, torn between seers presence for CDR and toughness DR and the crit chance one with crit doges

[strong gulch]

If you take purg, take EE.

[echo turtle]

For this build I was thinking probably void, unless you reckon purge will rock with this

I could see purge fitting real well here actually

[strong gulch]

For EP BB, the easiest to slot is purg. Trauma and void also work. Just keep in mind BB's weakness, groups.

Purg and trauma tackle groups better than void.

[echo turtle]

EE + crit chance

Does purge trigger the true aim a lot?

[strong gulch]

Purg can consume the garunteed crit, but it cannot build true aim stacks.

[echo turtle]

Ah shitty

[strong gulch]

Purg crits A LOT with nexus.

[echo turtle]

Not worth the points for purge, void though for sure

[brazen rampart]

Are purg crits even worth it, though?

[echo turtle]

Solid , you think crit chance aura with worth or the CDR then?

Yeah

Double flame stacks

It's kinda huge

[brazen rampart]

That doesn't seem all that impactful to me...

[strong gulch]

crits apply 2 stacks of SB instead of 1. Yes, you want crits.

[echo turtle]

Psychic leeching or naw?

[strong gulch]

CDR

[strong gulch]

no

[echo turtle]

Does the 5% ranged damage boost apply to BR?

[strong gulch]

yes, but it doesn't hit any meaningful breakpoints. That being said, EP BB can burst doen monsters.

[echo turtle]

Also, you reckon perfect timing is worth on this?

[strong gulch]

yes

Here is double wall EP BB with 5 points to spend on whatever with purg assumed as the ranged weapon.

[echo turtle]

Almost identical to what I got with the 5 points of flex

[upper galleon]

past nexus not really

purge crits give you one additional soulblaze stack per crit BUT

at 76% burn, 5% crit chance is only 3-4% faster to max stacks if an enemy can even live that long

nexus alone lets you maintain EE and perfect timing

[echo turtle]

Keep in mind the 5% crit skill also applies to the team and melee

[upper galleon]

yea but CDR is really good

[plucky flax]

Make the basket!!

[upper galleon]

and the chances your pub teammates are even using crits isn't something to be relied upon

everyone gets benefit from cdr, only high finesse or crit builds get use out of crit chance

[upper sun]

never rely on pubs for anything

[upper galleon]

and besides from a charmed reload achlys gunlugger, they aren't going to be "low" on crit chance anyways

[strong gulch]

EP BB with KR really wants CDR. There is more value in CDR vs stacking all of the crit chance you can for purg.

[upper sun]

always assume medstations have zero charges

[upper galleon]

if you have a premade, or want to make a tweaked build for lobbies in case there is another cdr psyker (auras of the same name don't stack)

[upper sun]

im till mad form my last game ignore me

[strong gulch]

valid

[plucky flax]

You're not always in coherence so pick the aura for yourself.

Not to synergise with team.

Loner aura goated on zealot.

[upper sun]

I am now 50% less mad

[fresh reef]

Did FS say if there will be any new weapons with the update?

[upper sun]

i dont remember but i noticed a new mark of the double barrel shotgun in one of the videos about the crafting update

[fresh reef]

I just want a new staff man

Or like, Void nerfs so I can use it without feeling disgusting

[upper sun]

just play worse

[lyric burrow]

Dont think so, if we get lucky blessings get changed enough the meta gets shaken up a bit

[fresh reef]

Pls pls pls voidstrike nerf

[iron elbow]

Gun psyker has fully reignited my love for this game wow

And I’m using absolute garbage gear

[iron elbow]

Which aura is best for gunpsyker

[plucky flax]

CDR aura.

[iron elbow]

Figured

[mossy oyster]

I wont stand for this propaganda simply because every zealot hates it

[plucky flax]

It benefits you and your team thanks you lots.

[mossy oyster]

(including me)

[upper sun]

bendication isnt as good as it seems

[iron elbow]

Bummed my vacation is over and I won’t be able to play for like another full week or more

[plucky flax]

A lot of zealots are really bad and can't survive by themselves alone.

[upper sun]

if he gets value from it its all that matters

[plucky flax]

So they think loner bad.

[mossy oyster]

also the nodes by loner

dog ass

[upper sun]

but tbh building around an aura isnt a good idea

[mossy oyster]

(except for like 3)

[upper sun]

just pick the keystone that you want and the important talents and go for the shortest path

[iron elbow]

Wonder if they’ll ever raise the level cap

[upper sun]

i dont think so

they need to shrink warp siphon imo

that shit is too much

[iron elbow]

An extra 5 points you can only use for “Uber-Auric”

[iron elbow]

In what way

[plucky flax]

5 is too much for current tree.

[upper sun]

ill take an extra point tbh

but still

[upper sun]

it needs way too many points

[iron elbow]

For sure I’m just bs’ing. I’m just curious where the game goes from here

[plucky flax]

Maybe 2 max but it's good for now. Unless there's another difficulty with even more enemies.

[upper sun]

many people end up skipping the last

[iron elbow]

I am hoping they are cooking up some crazy new mode. It really blows my mind how little the game has changed fundamentally

It’s dying for a new enemy race

[upper sun]

like tell me skipping soul stealer and KD doesnt hurt when you go blazing trauma @plucky flax

[plucky flax]

I always use KD. I don't need soul stealer with my blaze trauma because I am based.

[halcyon gust]

We reduced the number of nodes required to max Warp Siphon by 3, but we had to nerf some skills and warp staffs.

[iron elbow]

I want orcs or nids soooo bad. Or literally any other race really

[upper sun]

🙄

im skipping the last node because im cringe

[iron elbow]

You say “we”…do you work for FS

[plucky flax]

Yeah blaze trauma without 6 warp charges is truly cringe.

[strong gulch]

You and me both.

[halcyon gust]

Oh I wish

[upper sun]

ill even take changing the layout so you can pick the last node and the power one alone

[halcyon gust]

Proceed to make it even harder to get the desirable nodes

[upper sun]

hell yeah

[brazen rampart]

Every keystone that has more than 2 aux nodes needs to be condensed to 2 aux nodes, change my mind.

Or at the very least, they need to be standardized.

Like how ogryn's are.

[radiant frigate]

hello warp charges

[brazen rampart]

Yeah, big offender right there.

So is weapon spec and marksmans focus.

[iron elbow]

That would be a significant buff right

[radiant frigate]

marksman's focus has the bigger problem of, well, being marksman's focus

[iron elbow]

I’m itching to start auric

[radiant frigate]

do it

[fresh reef]

wheeze

[upper sun]

at least marksmans lets you pick what you want instead of forcing you down a path

[fresh reef]

I do appreciate Focus users though. Specifically the ones who make it highlight for your teammates

[radiant frigate]

focus is the keystone

you're thinking exec stance methinks

[fresh reef]

OH

Fuck I'm dumb

[radiant frigate]

the wheezing continues

but yes exec stance is similarly smelly

[fresh reef]

Yeah no Focus is kinda irredeemably bad compared to other keystones

[upper sun]

just bind tag to lmb

[fresh reef]

Unironically stoneless vet is better than investing into Focus

[radiant frigate]

focus be like
i will make you jump through hoops to give you Literally Fucking Nothing

[fresh reef]

Exec Vets are the perfect mixture of being decent at the game while not being overly confident and thinking they're gods

Like, they could probably clear 75%+ of their missions if they just used VoC or Stealth

[radiant frigate]

maybe

[echo turtle]

That Brain Burst build was pretty dece

Thanks for the feedback yall

I'm not sure which melee weapon to toss at that build, seems like a good choice for a Deimos of Dclaw since you have both solid single target and horde clear

[mossy oyster]

🧱

[upper sun]

79% damage

mid

[broken carbon]

bricked

hold x

take TB 1

[mossy oyster]

erm did you go shower

[broken carbon]

yeah

[mossy oyster]

then why do you still SMELL

[upper sun]

use it on the flak part of a bulwark

[mossy oyster]

😷

[upper sun]

how much damage does it do?

[mossy oyster]

idk I wanna consecrate it

🧱

[upper sun]

noooooo

check the damage first

[upper sun]

should be 138?

i wanna see if i can guess surge damage

[mossy oyster]

its over clad

1% MATTERS

[upper sun]

WOW

ITS SO FUCKING OVER

[mossy oyster]

itemization

deliver us from this hell

please

[broken carbon]

wha

i’m confused

why does the 1% matter so much

[upper sun]

anything less than 139 is bricked....

[broken carbon]

why

[mossy oyster]

i'll just run scriers with it and crit maxx

(copium)

[upper sun]

BECAUSE NUMBERS MAISON

[broken carbon]

i’m stupid sry

[upper sun]

THEY MATTER

[mossy oyster]

we know

[broken carbon]

ur stupid

[mossy oyster]

takes 1 to know 1

dont it?

[broken carbon]

true

[brazen rampart]

Yeah you are.

[broken carbon]

holy peak

[brazen rampart]

[mossy oyster]

time to run the speed quell talent for once

[broken carbon]

ok wow

[mossy oyster]

kek

[upper sun]

f

assuming all points go to quell maybe

[broken carbon]

why is warp siphon like

5 points

[brazen rampart]

Cringe?

[broken carbon]

to take

[broken carbon]

that too

[brazen rampart]

Oh same difference.

[mossy oyster]

iirc my other trauma is on my shriek low peril resis illisi build

it'll be fine..........

[brazen rampart]

Idk, it's a huge point tax for no reason.

[mossy oyster]

iirc my illisi has good quell

[brazen rampart]

I dknt think illisi has quell as a stat, though...

[mossy oyster]

(I know)

it sucks

[brazen rampart]

I'm pretty sure it's damage, finesse, first target, mobility, and warp res.

[mossy oyster]

surely running this with a shitty quell speed trauma on a venting shriek build

is fine

[broken carbon]

probably

[brazen rampart]

Honestly potential god roll for item update.

[broken carbon]

no uncanny

self brick

[mossy oyster]

im abusing crit talents

you harlot

[brazen rampart]

Assuming it maxes everything out and sets warp res to 60.

[mossy oyster]

smh

[broken carbon]

you smell bad

freak

[brazen rampart]

Snoodler...

[mossy oyster]

erm can you not be so close to smell me

back tf up

[broken carbon]

[mossy oyster]

heres my other trauma

worth bricking the other one

me thinks

[brazen rampart]

Sniff snorf, yup that's || redacted ||

[azure bridge]

So, I hear balance changes are incoming

[mossy oyster]

wheres clad

CLAD

[azure bridge]

how much you wana bet a bunch of stuff gets nerfed

[mossy oyster]

im gambling

[brazen rampart]

Alright, real question, is blazing spirit better than rending shockwave for trauma?

[upper sun]

HI

[mossy oyster]

if you wanna kill things and not be the "support"

yes

[mossy oyster]

we're bricking those things

1 sec

[restive ice]

blazing spirit sucks pls buff

[upper sun]

Crafting update WILL fix it

[upper galleon]

yes, but flurry rending is still good not even as a support weapon

[brazen rampart]

I'd bet that just about every BIS blessing is catching a nerf to some degree.

[azure bridge]

so fun little note, I find i get elite kills faster with rending trauma, and the soulfire set up

[mossy oyster]

WHOA

https://tenor.com/view/obama-ballin-basketball-gif-19387821

bye TB

[upper sun]

usable alert?????

[brazen rampart]

The biggest piece of dogshit...

[mossy oyster]

and guess what

the only T4 blessing I have unlocked for surge

is Flurry

too ez

[upper sun]

how do u not have all blessings for surge

there are 3 of them

[mossy oyster]

I dont play soyker nearly as much

and you think im rolling staves like that?

I got really good ones and stopped

lmfao

[azure bridge]

how much you wana bet brutal momentum is on the chopping block?

[mossy oyster]

ok what now

elites to flak

yes

[restive ice]

nexus to barrage

[mossy oyster]

you to meat grinder

[broken carbon]

yes

[upper sun]

idk id keep elite

[mossy oyster]

well true

i dont think im spamming monstros with this

but

in the case of me needing to fight a monstrosity it be nice

(this will be paired with a deimos btw)

keep unyield or keep elite

[azure bridge]

i'd drop unyielding

go for flak

that staff is best suited for killing gunners

it doesnt do too hot anywhere else

[plucky flax]

Flak maniac goated.

[mossy oyster]

well i only get 1 choice of cake here

[plucky flax]

Make a new staff.

[mossy oyster]

i wont

[plucky flax]

Not even 80% damage.

[mossy oyster]

ah heres my actual "good" stat'd surge

its bricked cause hadron said fuck you

[upper sun]

I wouldnt use a charge rate of less than 70%

[magic ledge]

check out me knoife. me psykers kukri infact

[mossy oyster]

really even with T4 flurry

[strong gulch]

I like unyeilding on surge. I keep running into situation where more boss damage is needed or I am the only one who can do it. Helps with bulwaks and reapers too.

BUT maniac and elites are also good.

[mossy oyster]

i think

id probably wanna do maniac elite

[plucky flax]

Kukri has more of a curve.

[mossy oyster]

because the maniacs are annoying

[magic ledge]

i can go for tha ti think

[restive ice]

hehe i want to yank on your tube

[strong gulch]

no flak, heck

[plucky flax]

It has like a curve downward.

Don't think any current weapon in game has that.

Most are straight blades or just regular curve. Not a downward recurve.

[mossy oyster]

hmm

https://tenor.com/view/casino-oldpeople-oldpeopleonslots-slots-vegas-gif-27586086

ill keep that in mind for later

[magic ledge]

is this better?

[mossy oyster]

ill brick this trauma force now

joever

[magic ledge]

im trying to find something

[plucky flax]

I think there's no kukri shape tbh.

[magic ledge]

so smol

[strong gulch]

def not kukri

[restive ice]

more like a fish knife

[plucky flax]

It has to curve the other way.

And it's kind of is but not really.

I am watching forged in fire too!

Goated smithing tv shows.

[upper sun]

HELL YEAH

I love it

[plucky flax]

It will kill.

[strong gulch]

I wish I liked that show.

[upper sun]

except for the ben abnett vs the other smiths episodes

[plucky flax]

I am not that far yet.

On s5 atm.

[upper sun]

tbh

its all good

[plucky flax]

I know he never loses though.

[strong gulch]

I just watch forging on youtube.

[plucky flax]

I like this guy from the first 2 season. Travis something.

[upper sun]

one time it was 50-50

[plucky flax]

The super buff farmer dude.

[upper sun]

and imo they should have made it a draw

if you ever see anyone larping as a viking they 100% lose all the time in every episode

[plucky flax]

A lot of vikings and japanese roleplayers.

Tbh some japanese roleplayers won.

[upper sun]

japanese larpers are a bit better

there was one guy that i followed on youtube that went there his knoife broke 😭

insta unsub

[plucky flax]

Smithing on a competition is different though.

3 hours is really hard mentally too.

[upper sun]

ye

not used to the machines they have

[plucky flax]

A lot of people panic and can't cope well under pressure.

[upper sun]

also hot as hell

a bunch of people quit because of that

[mossy oyster]

oh

I had this randomly

[plucky flax]

It will cut.

[upper sun]

:62% charge rate 😭

[mossy oyster]

where does this shit even come from

[upper sun]

emperor gifts

hold on lemme run the game show you some REAL surges

[mossy oyster]

its only gonna be 80 charge rate

nothing else

[broken carbon]

unless he was playing sedition

no

because emperors gifts on damnation will always be gold

[upper sun]

you dont do uprising twins?

[broken carbon]

or purple

maybe

[broken carbon]

no i like having fun

[mossy oyster]

clad staff

clad staff

[upper sun]

you dont melkmaxx?

[upper sun]

thats clearly kusu-core

[mossy oyster]

80 charge rate

clearly clad core

pain

[upper sun]

tell me about it....

This however once i can change the perks is gonna be PEAK

[mossy oyster]

should I upgrade this

[upper sun]

"eh"

[mossy oyster]

heres my current one

[upper sun]

do you have a purge?

thats better tbh

[mossy oyster]

i was wondering if cloud

was that big of a deal

(I know burn is)

[upper sun]

warp resist is meaningless on purge

[mossy oyster]

ckad

clad

[upper sun]

i cant notice the difference between 60 and 80 on channel

only lmb spam

[upper sun]

real

[mossy oyster]

https://tenor.com/view/star-wars-emperor-palpatine-fly-gif-17095684

[upper sun]

BUY

NOW

UPGRADE NOW

[mossy oyster]

(its in my inventory)

https://tenor.com/view/ascending-heaven-keanu-reeves-constantine-ascending-to-heaven-gif-11437079898090715826

i swear I dont know where half of these crazy ass rolls come from

[upper sun]

sec brown rain

[mossy oyster]

I just find them in my inventory chilling

[brazen rampart]

[broken carbon]

actually a godroll lmfao

purg struggles with having enough peril generation lol

[mossy oyster]

sexo maxo

rough but w/e

could be bricked worse

(I have T4 warp flurry to replace TB anyway)

and im assuming infested to flak

well a succesful gambling day for soyker at least

1,7k plasteel now

lmfao

[restive ice]

weakspot damage

[upper sun]

F

[mossy oyster]

I was at like what

4k

before I gambled on soyker just now

[upper sun]

Oh....

[mossy oyster]

dont worry I was at 9k earlier today

https://tenor.com/view/gambling-gamble-gambler-old-man-addiction-gif-13539663578305331391

[upper sun]

i spent 6k on picks

[mossy oyster]

get anything worth?

[upper sun]

oh no i already have 3 good ones

ive just been blessing hunting

[mossy oyster]

let me guess

yep

get anything worth?

[upper sun]

2 t4s 💀

[mossy oyster]

https://tenor.com/view/avatar-zuko-gif-4728195

also clad

[upper sun]

its ok

[mossy oyster]

what am i doing to these 2

[upper sun]

i have a plan

i put the t4s i had on all the blue bases i have left

[upper sun]

so i can sacrifice them

[strong gulch]

brunt is such a tease

[upper sun]

like you said first one id go flak for infested

wait

check meatgrinder

what gets unarmored?

i think half the poxies

[mossy oyster]

more than infested

I know that much

lmao

[upper sun]

infested is only dogs+half the poxies

[mossy oyster]

yea something like that

[jovial juniper]

Groaners are unarmored

[mossy oyster]

am I replacing

carapace for flak

on my surge

[upper sun]

ye unyielding is alright helps with bosses

carapace is only crushers

[mossy oyster]

and its not like im hitting weakspots

with surge

[upper sun]

also WHY THE FUCK ARE THERE GROANERS AND POXWALKERS

[mossy oyster]

(who would use LMB for surge)

[upper sun]

WHATS THE FUCKING DIFFERENCE

WHY DOES IT MATTER?

WHO GIVES A FUCK

[mossy oyster]

gambling done for today

success imo

[jovial juniper]

Groaners are the real trash of the game

Suppresable, share armor type with a bunch of enemies

Low hp

Low mass

No health

No bitches

No riches

[mossy oyster]

ok since i have an actual god rolled (stat wise) purg now

any buildz

[strong gulch]

EP BB

[mossy oyster]

yep that solves the range issue

now what ability/melee

[upper sun]

hadron is so easy man smh

[strong gulch]

you could do assail + purg. It works well

EP BB + purg conver more ground.

[upper sun]

too many words

both are icky

both should be 1

[mossy oyster]

I was thinking of assail purg

but then I thought about if gunners/snipers exist

(and they definitely do)

so maybe EP BB might be more my wave

ill just cook something up and we can tweak it like always

i shoulda done that first

[strong gulch]

You can do double wall for KR cast speed maxing. I prefer creeping flames tho.

Any melee tbh. DS4 is always good.

[mossy oyster]

I think since im low peril purg

ill take shriek

[strong gulch]

This is what I normally do for EP BB, but double wall is also good and solidity is not necessary.

[mossy oyster]

ok

think i might have something

[upper sun]

btw difference between a 60 warp res purge and a 78% purge is unironically 3 peril

it doesnt matter mutch

[strong gulch]

The +5% ranged damage node can add to boss dps, and there's a toughness node that is an easy grab.

[upper sun]

on a full charge that is

on lmb its 4vs5

[mossy oyster]

well

[strong gulch]

EP BB is unironically easy to do the entire basket.

[mossy oyster]

there goes my idea of using warp expenditure

lmfao

[mossy oyster]

wym

also im thinking of dropping warp expenditure

and just getting 5% TDR

[upper sun]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9c39d463-1cc1-4b31-a1e6-6656dbc7f336/firepilled-blazemaxxing-pogchamp

I follow this build by this random person(not me)

[strong gulch]

basket

[mossy oyster]

oh thats what you mean

yeah but I wanted to use warp expenditure cause I had low peril res

then clad said its difference is 3 peril

so that flew out the window

and battle meditation (I think I wanna keep my peril high for warp nexus on purg)

those are my reasonings anyway

[echo turtle]

Only problem with taking shriek with a Brain Burst/purgatus is the lack of reliably having high perils when you want to vent. Purgatus is insanely perils efficient

That and missing out on EE

[mossy oyster]

has deflector on the sword

https://tenor.com/view/squint-whats-going-on-mm-hmm-right-sure-gif-5967405

hmm interesting

[upper sun]

Yes

[echo turtle]

Deflector is fine, but I personally prefer uncanny

[upper sun]

read the whole thing

[mossy oyster]

thats not the point

clad likes deflector

[upper sun]

its deflector uncanny

[mossy oyster]

and he says the build isnt made by him

[echo turtle]

Ah if I missed some context then my apologies for butting in

[mossy oyster]

all i was pointing out

[upper sun]

yeah

its totally not me

[mossy oyster]

🔼

[strong gulch]

If you bb a lot plus purg, you get there. Plus shriek can un-dog teammates up on onther level or through walls.

[upper sun]

100% stop asking questions

[strong gulch]

You can take shriek and EE

[echo turtle]

Yeah shriek is generally good, I just find it doesn't synergize as well and is kind of a hat on a hat

[mossy oyster]

i thought wildfire was the suck

[strong gulch]

it's niche

[mossy oyster]

good for purg?

(and just flame maxxing)

[echo turtle]

My bad you're 100% correct

[jovial juniper]

If they changed one position it could look like an eye

[echo turtle]

Wildfire is solid

With creeping flames I took it and left it out in about a dozen games and compared results

[strong gulch]

Think of wildfire as precooking. Not needed on most builds but it helps on some.

[mossy oyster]

gotcha

purg is the main blow torch

[echo turtle]

I averaged about 30k more soul burn per round with wildfire, I did about 200-250k damage from soul burn without it. It's not a night and day difference but it wasn't nothing. For a single point that's pretty sweet

[strong gulch]

That's why wildfire is great with blaze trauma.

What wildfire is the best at is stealing soublaze ownership.

Wildfire will spread and take a siblin's sb damage

[mossy oyster]

ok clad im taking not your build

and ima just use my deimos on it instead

[echo turtle]

Wildfire also helps spread damage and weaken stuff that gets hit by other attacks, making it die easier. I stan it

[echo turtle]

Slick

[upper sun]

i mean i guess 🤷‍♂️

[mossy oyster]

(i dont want to deflect)

even though I think its a cool blessing

[fresh reef]

is this good?

[upper sun]

u dont even get to enjoy the meme of uncanny executor....

[plucky flax]

Slaughterer on deimos is L.

Unless you actually horde clear with it.

[mossy oyster]

ermmmm

do you know who you're talking to

[echo turtle]

It's a good blessing, slaughterer is solid in diemos especially if ur blazin

[upper sun]

u use it on knives

i use it on swords

[mossy oyster]

better on knives

[echo turtle]

Slaught makes light attack spam carve hordes real gud

[mossy oyster]

make it bleed better

(for zealot)

[half iron]

skibidi flesh tearer

[plucky flax]

Illisi light attack spam horde better with slaughterer.

[mossy oyster]

I wouldnt put slaughter on something I wasnt murdering with

[echo turtle]

Illisi heavy light alternating is goated

[plucky flax]

I have geniunely never heavy light combo with illisi.

[upper sun]

@mossy oyster look at the stacks LOOK

[echo turtle]

It's on another level

[plucky flax]

Seems like hard work when I can just light spam and weave in special light/heavy.

[upper sun]

shit bad recording

[echo turtle]

The light attack is a horizontal sweep in the reverse direction

[upper sun]

but you can see it

[sweet beacon]

epic 5 milliseconds clip

[echo turtle]

So you are going right along the weak spot plane left and right completely horizontal

It's outrageously good for horde clear and only slight slower on the heavy1 wind up

[upper sun]

you can still see the stacks 😭

[echo turtle]

The reverse light is instant basically

[plucky flax]

I am too noob for it.

[upper sun]

you get 4 executor and uncanny stacks on deimos special very good pls try

[echo turtle]

It's legit so easy

[plucky flax]

Not for Unsanctioned he's smol brained psyker.

Can only play easiest most braindead stuff.

[echo turtle]

Deimos push heavy stab tech by comparison is like figure skating

Well that's why dueling swords exist lol

Gotta give them something

[plucky flax]

DS5 is best.

[mossy oyster]

slaughterer locked

dont care

[sweet beacon]

Ds5 is very far from best

[echo turtle]

It's pretty busted

[mossy oyster]

running my deimos

(I dont have t4 exe on force swords either or at least deimos)

[echo turtle]

Executor seems slick now

[sweet beacon]

Wait do you mean the movetech specifically

[plucky flax]

DS5 is ice skating on dem noobs.

You run fast and skrr skrrr around.

[echo turtle]

If you block push then heavy attack, it goes directly into H2

[upper sun]

this is the deimos you need

[plucky flax]

I use ds5 on blaze trauma.

[echo turtle]

Which is the strongest stab in the game, which knocks crushers to the ground with a headshot

[upper sun]

the last sword youll ever need in fact

[plucky flax]

To run away from problems and reposition.

[fresh reef]

pls respond

very important

[sweet beacon]

I wish ds5 didn't have quirky lights

[mossy oyster]

what did I tell you noob

gambling done for today

[sweet beacon]

I'd use it otherwise

[echo turtle]

You can push stab and juggle crusher packs with it if you learn the pattern

[mossy oyster]

gamble more tomorrow or some other time

back to stacking

[upper sun]

sorry i dont listen to quiters

[plucky flax]

Oh I never light attack with ds5 when I use blaze trauma. Only heavy for crushers and muties.

Everything else I spam my blaze trauma.

[mossy oyster]

i cant hear you over the sound of the 5 gunners you're deflecting

[sweet beacon]

deflector
block efficiency

https://tenor.com/view/dog-walk-away-weirdo-touch-gif-26494423

[upper sun]

were too afraid to say anything because no one checks the damage stats on weapons we just go for big number

[echo turtle]

Block efficiency is kinda useless though most of the time

[upper sun]

Yes

wanna know what was there before deflector?

slaughter 2 or 3 i forgot

[sweet beacon]

something more fun I assume

[fresh reef]

yeah but I don't play much D claw

don't know what blessings it wants, really

[upper sun]

i thoght that was a ds4

[mossy oyster]

ramp/shred

ramp/savage sweep isnt bad either but meh

[echo turtle]

Nothing wrong with deflector though, sometimes stuff shoots at you and not dying is pretty cool

[upper sun]

ive seen people use savage sweep rampage

[echo turtle]

Rampage is kinda meh now

[upper sun]

nah im out here blockmaxxing

[mossy oyster]

if you're dclaw on scriers you could get away with ramp/savage sweep and rely on the inherent Scrier's crit chance

[echo turtle]

That's legit, nothing wrong with pumping efficiency up for that if you wanna dip into the stmm pool more

KD peril block gets nothing from block efficiency unless they updated the code on that since I was last on

[upper sun]

new information blocked ^

[echo turtle]

Savage in Dclaw I think is a waste, Dclaw doesn't struggle against hordes and I find very often it's not procced when I am hitting elites and shit

So it ends up as a dead blessing a lot of the time for me personally

[sweet beacon]

Stamina affects it though, doesn't it?

Since weird calculation between stamina percentage and peril used

[echo turtle]

Lol

Last I checked, and It could have changed but I doubt it.

Peril blocking efficiency is based on how much stam you have, so you just want to take a stam 3 curio and it becomes waaaaay more efficient

Block efficiency itself only gets applied once you are blocking on the stam itself

[upper sun]

ur using too many words my brain blocks everything

[echo turtle]

Be a Chad and take a stam curio, all you need to know

[upper sun]

ye i do

[echo turtle]

Ur good

[upper sun]

i have a stamina curio on all classes except ogryn

[echo turtle]

Then get health until you can eat a sniper or burster and not lose a wound and ur fine

[upper sun]

ye i do 1 hp 1 toughness 1 stamina

[echo turtle]

Same

Then it's health/tough and sniper and gunner resist

Dunno if anything is more optimal, it's works well enough

[upper sun]

i dont have problems with snipers

[echo turtle]

You don't until you do

It's just so you don't eat a shot and die randomly

[upper sun]

idk on psyker esp

[echo turtle]

You want to not instantly die if a sniper tags you when you're on your last wound

[upper sun]

i never have sniper or gunner problems so my perks are toughness hp and cdr

generalized stuff

tho i wanna change one thing to bomber resist

[echo turtle]

Yeah that's fine, I found that sometimes I ate a shot and died. So a lil rez just prevented that

I already get so much CDR, so trinket CDR didnt feel like it changed much

There's something to be said for maxing CDR if you wanna just roll abilities non stop, you can do that with scriers and basically have it going almost all the time if you really lean into it and especially if your team mates get some CDR skills too

[sweet beacon]

Reddit HATES this man

[halcyon gust]

I always run Gunner Resistance on my Curios

[echo turtle]

Gunner rez is generally a great idea, at least 20x20

The last 20 has diminishing returns

[upper sun]

i only need sniper resist on ogryn because of fucking dumbass dodges and slides

[sweet beacon]

Does bomber resist actually work now? Iirc it used to only affect their melee hit

[upper sun]

as far as pygex says yes

[echo turtle]

I think I take 60% sniper rez on my orgyn

I was doing a toughness build and a sniper shot didn't even break toughness

[upper sun]

if they wanna fix ogryn play rate they need to fix the movement

[echo turtle]

But now the DR isn't additive so that probs doesn't work anymote

[upper sun]

its not about blessings or cosmestics or weapons or anything

movement feels so bad

[echo turtle]

Ogryns were so OP since the update there's nothing they can do to make people play them if that wasn't enough

[plucky flax]

Make ogryn human size.

[echo turtle]

I would switch to my ogryn after playing psyker and I just felt like a god

[plucky flax]

[upper sun]

try to mantle
fail
die

ogryn veri good class pls play .t fatshark

[sweet beacon]

I wish upon you 5 gunners 3 snipers and no horde to regen toughness with

[echo turtle]

The movement is fine in ogryn, they just get less total dodges

[echo turtle]

Kickback deletes that shit so easy lol

Unless that too has been nerfed to death

[upper sun]

no u

kickback is fine pls leave it alone

[sweet beacon]

do not leave it alone

I don't want the ogryn to delete half the horde with a single shot

no idea why they buffed it's damage back then

[upper sun]

the what?

idk i just shield stab hoards

[sweet beacon]

filth

[echo turtle]

But yeah, ogryn are bonkers strong.

Slab shield is fun, It's one of my favourite weapons

[upper sun]

🙄

cant have shit on atoma

[sweet beacon]

use the other busted ogryn weapons like a normal person

[upper sun]

no

[echo turtle]

I switched to shovel when it came out because it was so broken

[upper sun]

i only use shield and now branx

[echo turtle]

The build I was using did like 25% of a plague ogryns health in one shot

[upper sun]

but branx has issues with rocks

idk swap feels a bit slow

[echo turtle]

Shields I think are way less good now due to them fixing the skull crusher blessing
