Like even a lot of weight, they look the same to me

Unless I haven't seen them in forever

The crusher blessing change is the tell that they have no idea what they are doing

upper sun
#

crusher blessings tell me to expect Deimos thrust too

#

just imagine 3k damage

runic juniper
upper sun
#

who cares about good lmao

blissful solar
#

(total damage, though worth mentioning it was a 40m:23s game) (maelstrom mission I-III-VII-F, Encalvum Baross, Damnation)

upper sun
#

i wanna mememaxx

runic juniper
#

If only there were enemy types with more hp that weren't unyielding

#

need a regular scab shooter with monstrosity hp

upper sun
#

man out of all the changes

#

they could have added run n gun to auto guns

mossy oyster
#

soyker tree

#

turned into vet tree 2

#

(I think it looks ugly)

upper sun
#

yeah

mossy oyster
#

new talents are broken tho

#

lmfao

upper sun
#

but warpsiphon shrunk

#

good enough for me

hearty dagger
#

By the way, what do you guys think of SM2?

patent mango
#

needs more ogryn

runic juniper
upper sun
#

at least its FUN and changes gameplay esp on those weapons

hearty dagger
runic juniper
#

otherwise looks good if there aren't any real issues with the epic games stuff

hearty dagger
#

Honestly from everything i've seen, it looks kinda mid.

#

Story is all out on yt already and i shit you not they just copied the script from the first game but swapped the words ||inquisitor|| and ork for ||astropath|| and tyranid

runic juniper
#

I mean yeah story is kinda meh in the first game too. but you are big armor space guy fighting bugs

#

that's literally the name of the game

hearty dagger
#

Fair

#

But it's still really annoying that not only do they drop that one of the primaris squad mates were on calth during the word bearer attack, they don't answer anything about Titus just having "fuck you warp" affinity either.

#

And the ending feels either really sequel-baity or "hey hey hey wait for our drop of the Lt. Titus mini for the tabletop"

runic juniper
#

that kinda sucks if it doesn't even play into titus' warp affinity

hearty dagger
#

Yeah.

#

They beat the fucking final boss antagonist in a pre-rendered CG cutscene

runic juniper
#

huge missed opportunity

hearty dagger
#

Brother i shit you not they beat him by flipping some weird stones.

#

That may or may not have anything to do with ||necrons||

#

But they're never brought up before the ending sequence.

runic juniper
#

I'm still real curious about the coop though, how well difficulty can scale and if it's replayable with the different classes and their upgrades or if it's just going to be 1 time playthrough kinda game and then boring after that.

hearty dagger
#

Plus at some point a marine dies because a piece of rebar penned his visor.

hearty dagger
#

So, co-op also looks very repetitive.

#

Darktide is also similar in that regard but at least we have different objective types rather than "oh yeah just check these dead guardsmen"

runic juniper
#

the builds here and the amount shit the director throws at you really help this game

hearty dagger
#

Plus for some goddamn reason the heavy bolter works like a minigun, ala shoot faster the longer you hold the trigger down, and does not have the overwhelming firepower feel a bolter should have (sound design wise)

teal fog
#

i love psyker it's my favourite class

#

psyker players are the best

runic juniper
hearty dagger
#

I like to run at least 1 wound curio just to make sure i don't get fucked over by overperiling because of lag.

runic juniper
#

illisi and assail can definitely get fucky if you try and edge, but after a game or 2 im used to it even when i have to play on a vpn to get around the connection errors

hearty dagger
#

The problem is i get ping spikes so if it happens at a bad time i can explode because instead of swinging my shockmaul, my dumbass psyker decided to throw out more assails or m1 with the staff instead.

upper sun
broken carbon
hearty dagger
#

Switching weapons on high lag is the worst.

broken carbon
#

relatively a lot*

broken carbon
hearty dagger
#

On what i was saying previously, SM2 looks way too underwhelming for all the hype it had going for it.

#

It's like the MW remaster of SM1

runic juniper
broken carbon
#

sm2 was not what i had hoped for

plucky flax
#

Too high warpfire damage. I want to guess it's surge creeping flames spam or maybe blaze trauma.

broken carbon
#

ah

#

could be

hearty dagger
#

I know i'm spoiled by Astartes, but a sprinting primaris should definitely move faster than that.

broken carbon
#

i genuinely believe darktide to be a better game in all ways except story compared to space marine 2

broken carbon
#

hordes aren’t big enough, guns are super weak,

hearty dagger
#

It feels like they standardized shit way too much for casual shooter gamers to the point you might as well just play GoW at this point

latent mauve
#

Astartes was so good

hearty dagger
#

At least Darktide has some solid background story going on

broken carbon
hearty dagger
#

SM2 is just a nothing burger

broken carbon
#

idek lmfao

upper sun
broken carbon
#

all i know is there is a macguffin

upper sun
#

think psyker in the update but worse

hearty dagger
#

Plus

#

It's highly baffling that they made such gorgeous chaplain armor for the story, but you don't have it in multiplayer.

#

Also no beak helmet for malum caedo cosplay, you just get Mark X Tacticus but with a skull or Mark X Tacticus with plume and faceshield.

runic juniper
#

biggest complaint with sm2 is that mechanicist mfs using push brooms instead of having a servitor clean the floors

hearty dagger
# broken carbon yeah

Also, even worse, in the fucking opening, a space wolf death watch marine gets taken out by a relatively low tier Tyranid in melee.

#

SM2 did marines dirty in general but holy fuck they did the death watch so dirty.

broken carbon
#

it’s such stupid grim dark

hearty dagger
#

Best part of SM2 was in the intro where Titus proved that ultramarines are greek by shoving an entire virus bomb up his ass.

runic juniper
# broken carbon i love it

'The push broom. Invention from the dark ages of humanity. The original stc for them has been lost for several millennia. Only a few remain as priceless artifacts.'

broken carbon
#

I WAS LAYGHING SO HARD AR THAT SCENE

hearty dagger
#

LIKE BRO

#

YOU HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY TO JUST MODEL IT ATTACHED BENEATH HIS BACKPACK

#

OR JUST HAVE HIM HOLD IT AND RESTRICT THE PLAYER TO ONE HANDED

hearty dagger
#

BUT NO, VIRUS BOMB UP THE ASS IT IS, THE CODEX ASTARTES SUPPORTS THAT ACTION

#

The whole banner scene was also just eeeh

jovial juniper
hearty dagger
#

Like they had such a blank check to have a climactic scene where routed ultramarines rally around Titus until he has a whole squad around him, but no, Titus used his daemonic mattward powers to fade-to-black the screen and spawn ultramarines out of nothing but air

thin knoll
#

Yall already talk about the patch notes?

hearty dagger
#

Yeah

thin knoll
#

What's the concensus? I'm excited

hearty dagger
#

Looks pretty great

jovial juniper
#

Psykers are going to throw hands up close and personal

hearty dagger
#

Dueling Sword on zealot is going to be a bit funky but we'll see how that pans out

jovial juniper
#

Vets are going to break the game

thin knoll
#

Oh yeah

jovial juniper
#

Again

hearty dagger
hearty dagger
#

Also, ngl now i kinda want to see a space marine in Darktide, at least as a sort of NPC in the Mourningstar

#

I just wanna see how Fatshark does the marines.

radiant frigate
#

siblings i found a scrier's setup i actually really like

#

illisi + laspistol

#

thoughts? (other than malefic momentum)

upper sun
#

id change toughness during gaze for toughness for peril gen

#

since gaze gives you peril and you can have toughness regen with ulting

radiant frigate
blissful solar
#

wish the game had an official way of tracking damage, different mods, and even different people in the same game with the same mod, see different damage numbers i believe

lethal lagoon
#

I've compared multiple times

#

But yeah the whole no scoreboard = less toxicity just isnt true.

#

All it does is let bad players have the confidence to be toxic. Literally anytime someone backseats or yells into the mic that "you all suck" in any of my games, they are in 4th place lmao.

plucky flax
#

Scoreboard really shows how bad blaze trauma is. NOOO

#

Pls buff.

#

Blazing spirits t4. More radius. Faster charge.

runic juniper
#

extra flame stacks would be nice

#

especially if its max stacks

fresh reef
#

Showstopper Blaze Trauma 🙏

runic juniper
#

blaze away 4 being a thing would be so nice though

#

but they only mentioned like tier 1s and 2s getting higher tiers

plucky flax
#

Wait what?

fringe tangle
#

Too bad it doesn't give wounds and make the blast bigger, would of been funny to run what is essentially a poxburster build.

plucky flax
#

I'm rioting if they don't give blazing spirits t4.

#

4 stacks per crit 8 stacks cap.

#

I have seen it in my dream.

runic juniper
analog agate
#

Surge on surge (if secondary works for it? Replacing… warp flurry? Also, my boy trauma build seems to be intact and ?buffed with stagger wtf??

plucky flax
#

Warp flurry is so good for surge. It doesn't charge that fast and I can tell a difference with flurry stacks going rather easily.

plucky flax
#

However, if surge works for right click I can see not using flurry and abuse blitz cancel swap.

#

Then RIP fingers playing surge.

upper sun
nocturne dust
plucky flax
#

True but upward to 20% crit chance is still huge for a crit dependant weapon.

upper sun
#

yeah thats the issue

#

unless..... we get red weapons?

plucky flax
#

You really want the crit with surge.

upper sun
#

3 blessings pls??????

plucky flax
#

Surge blessing would only help against mostly ogryns and monsters.

clear heath
#

surge vs flurry will be a tough choice if it actually works

plucky flax
#

Most elites and specials die really fast already to full charge.

nocturne dust
#

3 blessings with rending purgatus whatthefuck_heresy

plucky flax
#

If surge doesn't fork to additional target, then the surge proc is wasted on weaker enemies.

#

If it even works on right click at all.

#

(Which I doubt since it doesn't for trauma)

nocturne dust
primal plume
#

I kinda wish Psykers extra 3rd talent went to the charged spell of smite instead of it being a melee talent

#

let the left click stay as is without the stun being over the top

plucky flax
#

Maulers won't die. Ragers I think have about 10% left.

#

Shotgunners will die to 1 crit.

clear heath
#

surge surge would help for ragers, maulers, all the ogryns

sturdy tendon
#

Also insta stun on Muties

strong gulch
#

What staff you play?

surge surge KEKW_ogryn

primal plume
#

Im really curious to what surge on surge staff will do

#

zap to the extreme?

#

double damage?

clear heath
#

it probably just wont work

primal plume
#

double chain?

#

or just the fucking dinky little bolt

strong gulch
#

probably lmb only megachingryn

restive ice
#

left click surge rise up

plucky flax
#

I would actually prefer if they make it so it always target 2 different enemies, prioritising elites/specials unless there's only 1 enemy in range then both attacks proc on the same guy.

nocturne dust
plucky flax
#

More spread damage. But against monster it can do extra damage.

#

Whatever they decide to do I would of course try surge surge if even for the meme.

analog agate
#

Yeah, I value crit on surge (chance to one shot more enemies) over spam hitting. Time will tell. Blitz canceling already makes surge powerful af

plucky flax
#

My favourite staff. Pogryn

radiant frigate
tulip kettle
#

agreed!

blissful solar
tulip kettle
analog agate
#

I still like trauma as my comfort brain off staff. I’m just not as talented as being selfish on surge chadgryn

blissful solar
#

well yeah that is true, if people leave they get zero'd out

plucky flax
#

Blaze trauma is my 2nd favourite but it needs too big brains to play.

tulip kettle
#

if you join partway through its also not accurate

plucky flax
#

I dunno how you think it's 'comfort' D:

strong gulch
#

Surge is my less brain needed staff.

tulip kettle
#

this is how i feel about surge

#

it feels like my brain is too small to use it

plucky flax
#

Wut on surge?

#

Just right click spam the whole map.

tulip kettle
#

yeah i just can never make it work

plucky flax
#

You don't even have to aim!

tulip kettle
#

it just tickles things

strong gulch
#

WC fire trauma is sweaty for me. Assail + fire trauma is more of a comfort pick for me.

analog agate
#

Cause I don’t get hit. Ever. And Quell canceling is second nature. It is an easy clutch staff for me

radiant frigate
tulip kettle
#

i expect them to die, they dont, i explode myself

plucky flax
#

Make sure you do full charge.

tulip kettle
#

i tried to enjoy it so many times

radiant frigate
#

"know what? just fuck things up in this general direction"

plucky flax
#

If surge right click is not at full charge it does quite a bit less damage.

tulip kettle
#

i even watched one of that "agent chaos" guys vids to learn like 6 months ago....

plucky flax
analog agate
#

Obviously when I compare the 1000 hours to trauma and hundreds to surge that had a factor too. I’m just not as good at it

radiant frigate
#

if only this agent chaos guy was here to teach us more

tulip kettle
#

ikr

#

😄

plucky flax
#

AgentChaos/UnsanctionedPsyker biggest scammer.

plucky flax
#

I hate him.

radiant frigate
#

such a shame that he isn't in this channel

tulip kettle
#

yeah i mean

plucky flax
#

Promoting bad staves like blaze trauma and surge smh.

radiant frigate
blissful solar
#

blaze trauma is cool

radiant frigate
upper sun
#

blaze trauma veri bad pls buff

blissful solar
#

yes...buff....yes........

strong gulch
radiant frigate
#

when are we making deflector and blazing spirit baseline for force swords?

plucky flax
radiant frigate
#

they all have blaze in the name

analog agate
tulip kettle
#

but for real im sure i just dont know wtf im doing because all the other cool psykers seem to enjoy surge but i just cant click with it, and i really want to!

radiant frigate
#

surge is ok

#

prefer voide strike

blissful solar
#

voidstrike is probably the best staff

upper sun
#

anyone have the game running rn?

blissful solar
#

but the trauma force with blazing spirit is really strong

plucky flax
#

The best build for surge by far is creeping flames spam with warp charges.

tulip kettle
#

oh.....

radiant frigate
plucky flax
#

So you can spam soulblaze and spam surge the whole map.

analog agate
tulip kettle
#

so like, when i play surge i should actually just be playing shriek?

radiant frigate
upper sun
#

i want someone to check my tru level

jovial juniper
upper sun
#

ill check vox

radiant frigate
tulip kettle
#

but like leaning on it i mean

plucky flax
radiant frigate
#

sg surge is like top 10 ways to explode

blissful solar
jovial juniper
strong gulch
upper sun
radiant frigate
plucky flax
#

Warp charges to reduce peril generation and more damage and reduce cdr.

radiant frigate
#

you can get your peril up for big shrieks in a matter of seconds

jovial juniper
tulip kettle
#

yeah thats what i theorycraft based on what youre saying

#

but then im like

radiant frigate
#

surge kills single targets very well and then shriek will kill waves

#

veri efficient

tulip kettle
#

surge kills so slowly i probably wont even get 6 charges up before i want to shriek again

radiant frigate
#

your shriek will do a lot of work by itself

jovial juniper
radiant frigate
#

with in fire reborn

tulip kettle
#

i get that

upper sun
#

im like 200 levels below my zealot

#

ALL ON

tulip kettle
#

at that point though

upper sun
#

RASHAD

tulip kettle
#

am i really playing surge?

radiant frigate
#

Yes

tulip kettle
#

if im just leaning on shriek to do everything

radiant frigate
#

but shriek is leaning on surge to do things

upper sun
#

OK

plucky flax
#

Yeah you still do more range damage then soulblaze damage.

upper sun
#

a GOOD maelstrom is up

tulip kettle
#

hmmm]

upper sun
#

LETS GOO 2/5

tulip kettle
#

i will give it a go

#

show us your stick chaos

#

lemme see what im aiming for on a surge staff if i throw one together now

tulip kettle
#

tah

plucky flax
#

As high damage and crit bonus as possible. Then charge rate at 70% ish or higher and as high quell as you can too.

plucky flax
#

Maniac let you 2 shots dreg rager and 1 shot trapper without crit.

strong gulch
#

I'm an unyielding enjoyer on surge.

plucky flax
#

True play whatever 2nd perk you want. Some people run elites too. But I like maniac for extra specials damage.

restive ice
#

weakspot damage surge is bis

plucky flax
strong gulch
#

Yeah, second perk on surge is up in the air. It's not that it doesn't matter, but more that they have impact on different enemies.

tulip kettle
#

lol

#

how is weakspot dmg good on surge? i thought surge couldnt hit weakpsots

#

always hits torso no?

tulip kettle
#

ah

radiant frigate
#

weakspot trauma

tulip kettle
#

nah tbh flakiak seems the way on it based on what i would use it for

#

then flurry and nexus makes complete sense

strong gulch
#

lmb main rise up

plucky flax
#

The beast helping people do some weird penance i dunno. But surge is like you just run forward spam right click and press f.

Using my most OP psyker build we got this on the 3rd attempt. Both prior attempts had people going down to trapper then burster near end event.

Just found out VS RMB has no/low suppression, it's not so over

plucky flax
#

You'd kill all the specials and shooters on map making it so safe for team.

#

Then if shits really hit the fan you have smite still to stun lock.

strong gulch
#

Flaniac is good. Can't go wrong with that combo most of the time anyways.

It favor unyielding on surge because I keep running into situations where more boss damage is needed or I'm the only one who can deal with the monster.

happily stood behind wall stabbing muties

suddenly green one

#

aaaaaand thats a teamwipe

im still gonna keep trying it in pubs

i dont think it counts if i do it in the discord and one dude solos the maelstrom for everyone

plucky flax
#

Be the dude soloing the maelstrom for 3 other randos you find in the lobby.

tulip kettle
#

haha

#

what an amazing way to say " git gud"

upper sun
#

one day

tulip kettle
#

and ALSO, idk, i feel like the director decides that

#

sometimes its pretty clear the director is like "no actually, and also fuck you back to the lobby"

#

oh youre last left alive and dealing with a rager patrol and horde?

#

here, have a silent burster through this door

queen trout
#

The director sometimes says, queue again and sends 3 flamers and 2 bombers in a hoard with a back line of shooters

tulip kettle
#

it does seem weird how the director clearly sometimes wants to kill you and other times wants you to make it

plucky flax
#

ASS is no one have to go down?

tulip kettle
#

nope

plucky flax
#

Oh just yourself?

tulip kettle
#

ASS is just dont die for 5 maels i thought

#

i have got 4 so many times

plucky flax
#

So clad why don't you play stealth zealot?

#

Just stealth when it's dangerous.

tulip kettle
#

gave up on it because i refuse to do it with any class that isnt psyker

#

and i wont cheese it by leaving

plucky flax
#

On psyker hrm...

tulip kettle
#

but yes its very ez with vet or zealot

plucky flax
#

Safest build probably would be assail voidstrike creeping flames.

#

Since surge generate too much peril you might risk blowing up.

tulip kettle
#

honestly its just nurgles blessing makes me lose

blissful solar

monstrous specialists is the one that always fucks shit up i swear

No games of EP smite shriek either

flat helm
#

what is meta build for auric maelstorm?

tulip kettle
#

there are many.

#

what sort of thing did you want to play, roughly?

#

a gun? a staff?

vestal fulcrum
nocturne dust
#

I mean, in terms of just the best chance to win, voidstrike is generally the pick, no?

tulip kettle
#

personally no

#

but yes its very good

halcyon gust
#

Best chance to win is having a good team

tulip kettle
#

its at least as good as plasma gun on veteran

#

i prefer trauma

halcyon gust
#

You can have the best build in the game

tulip kettle
#

its impossible to lose with trauma if there is no nurgl;es blessing

halcyon gust
#

But if you have 3 Potatos as team members

#

It can only get you so far

nocturne dust
tulip kettle
#

lol

nocturne dust
#

and sliding

tulip kettle
#

i mean if you are dying to shooters then should you be playing auric mael?

halcyon gust
#

Trauma does stop the funny pox walker from blocking you

tulip kettle
#

trauma just wins vs everything

#

until it is unstaggerable

#

then you die

nocturne dust
tulip kettle
#

okay my dude 🙂

#

like i said, trauma is free wins if you arent bad and there is no nurgles blessing

nocturne dust
#

Personally, I think voidstrike is better since it has tons of stagger too, just in a ball you can shoot.

halcyon gust
#

Each of the staffs have their pros and cons

tulip kettle
#

void is fine if you have the space to use it.

#

i love it, but it is not nearly as safe as trauma

nocturne dust
#

But yes, it's largely personal preference at that point and what other things in your kit you have.

halcyon gust
#

Trauma is basically a "Stay out of personal space" zone, but runs into gripes related to shooter control and stuff outside of Trauma range

tulip kettle
#

truma has LMB with insane supression

#

and you are a psyker running a staff AKA bubble or vent

#

literally the only thing that can stop you is enemies that cant be staggered

fresh reef
#

Surge + Blazing Spirit trauma

#

Maximize suppression and soulblaze coverages

tulip kettle
#

lol surge useless on trauma

#

i havge one

#

my LMB spam staff

nocturne dust
#

they're doing it for the m1

tulip kettle
#

but its 100% a meme

nocturne dust
#

get the mod that lets you spam m1s without breaking your finger and go to town

strong gulch
halcyon gust
#

I see Surge on Surge being a M1 buff. Though double lightening would be really funny

tulip kettle
#

aww hells yeah

#

all the LMB spam

#

mine is very similar but flak instead

teal fog
tulip kettle
#

and i never use it except from running a staff scriers meme build with my irl friends

I would prefer flak, but brunt and hadron are haters.

the thing with void is

nocturne dust
tulip kettle
#

the sound of headshottiung 20 pox at once makes me want to play it

jovial juniper
#

Even Purg, but the range is bleh

tulip kettle
#

but then youre doing dreyko final section

nocturne dust
jovial juniper
#

In fact you have more suppression on the charged attack

tulip kettle
#

and it makes me so annoyed

jovial juniper
#

With the purg that is

tulip kettle
#

like, i just want to throw bowling balls anmd get a strike

#

not kill each enemy one at a time

fresh reef
nocturne dust
#

I'm so ready for the purgatus meta

tulip kettle
#

i consider it

#

i have considered

#

its still a meme

fresh reef

:(

upper sun
#

BLIND EVERYONE

fresh reef
#

So what's the new staff caste system looking like?

tulip kettle
#

trauma > void > other cucks

#

IMO

nocturne dust
#

Purge will probably be a lot better. Other than that... eh. Surge surge if it works on the m2 would be cool.

tulip kettle
#

your results may vary

fresh reef
jovial juniper

That would be too cool

#

like

#

no never

purge very weak

needs more rending

tulip kettle

the one thing psyker does not care about AT ALL

purge always weak

tulip kettle

is trash mobs

Fatshark plz more buffs

asnd purg is only actually "good" vs trash

fresh reef
#

purg only good for trash
I am going to fucking explode you

tulip kettle
#

thats my take

nocturne dust
tulip kettle
#

like, what is purgatus good for other than trash

nocturne dust
#

Literally 12 billion ragers? Still dead

vestal fulcrum
burnt gazelle
#

i think you can probably just lmb spam your way through the whole mission though with rend now tho? the skill floor for purgatus will be in the basement

tulip kettle
#

right but i can say the same for trauma

vestal fulcrum
#

and isn't 18m away from you

tulip kettle
#

except i actually have range on trauma

#

if purgatus had a normal LMB i would use it. probably a lot.

nocturne dust
#

I mean purge isn't trauma, sure, but we're talking about it being good, not it being the best

tulip kettle
#

but right now its on the same tier as surge for me it sucks, i suck with it, and i hate it.

#

ohh look i can light up the darkness in front of mer

#

blind my teammates

#

and take 4.5 seconds to kill a poxwalker

#

very cool FS ty

nocturne dust
#

I mean, I think current purge is... not fantastic like voidstrike or trauma, but that's a very tough comparison and maybe not healthy for the game.

tulip kettle
#

i think if youre running BB and a decent anti elite melee purge is fine

fresh reef
#

It fucks everything up dude

tulip kettle
#

but otherwise, just why]

#

ah yes, tanner

#

im totally going to spend my tiume watching one of his videos

nocturne dust
fresh reef
#

I couldn't find the actual recording

#

If you think 3k per tick is bad dps then idk what to tell you

nocturne dust
#

I mean, the damage numbers look great but the issue with purge is ttk and that damage is spread out amongst a plethora of enemies. If you want the elites dead now it's not going to work for you. You have to be very good at managing your space and DoTing enemies to death.

fresh reef
#

There are strengths other than raw burst damage

nocturne dust
#

The other issue is venting shriek exists and can largely just replace purge

fresh reef
#

True, since surge does decent damage while mobile, and Shriek can cover hordes and such easily

#

Purg is slightly better with Maulers

plucky flax
#

I was featured in Tanner's vid once. Pogryn

sweet beacon
#

It's not gonna immediately melt flak/maniacs but once one of them dies so does everything near them

#

Wildfire helps a tiny bit in those situations

#

Crit chance is obviously a massive boost

#

Scriers gaze is already good with purge, probably gonna be insane when the update drops

tulip kettle
#

every other staff performs better, and doesnt blind yourself and tewammates, and has the option to engage at longer ranges

#

idk

upper sun
#

nonono see the real issue is

#

other staves can break idols easier

jovial juniper
#

Fun fact, you'll get terrifying barrage on it

upper sun
#

:sobb

#

you can kinda do it with rmb

#

if its close enough

worn heron
#

Oh

#

Lmfao

sweet beacon
#

Still think the weakest is surge

worn heron
#

Isnt wildfire worthless

sweet beacon
#

Not sure why they haven't nerfed purge vfx yet. Or at least added it as an option

#

It's worthless without purge

worn heron
#

Cuz it spreads its four stacks out

sweet beacon
#

It's mid with purge

fresh reef
worn heron
#

Like it spreads one stack to four enemies

sweet beacon
#

It helps a tiny tiny bit

worn heron
#

Instead of four stacks to enemies around it

#

Iirc it's still bugged

sweet beacon
#

Worse than that it won't add an extra stack if the enemy already has 4

#

So maybe it'll be good if fatshark ever fixes hordes rarely spawning

worn heron
#

The one where you vent ur peril and it lights shit on fire is the one you want w purg

#

That one lets you go well and passed the purg's soulblaze cap

sweet beacon
#

Eh, both nodes are leading the same place

worn heron
#

Like it can give them a total of 12 stacks

#

No, this one is broken

sweet beacon
#

From 15/16 w crit to 21

worn heron
#

It wipes the floor with all trasj

#

Trash*

sweet beacon
#

I am aware, they're not mutually exclusive

worn heron
#

If ur max ur peril and already have them ablaze

sweet beacon
#

It wipes the floor with anything not carapace

worn heron
#

And it can shred bosses

#

It'll give full stacks to a boss

sweet beacon
#

Cause you know damn well pubbies aren't even gonna look at idols if you ping em

fresh reef
sweet beacon
#

You mean brittleness? Rending is applied to the currently equipped weapon and I can't think of anything psyker has that gives rending

#

Not sure which weapon applies brittleness either but sounds more plausible

fresh reef
#

Isn't Uncanny rending?

plucky flax
fresh reef
#

iirc Rending works globally for all stacks. Brittle needs to be stacked up on every enemy individually for the bonus damage

fresh reef

#

Right click and spam f. SadgeCry

fresh reef
#

It's more button presses than just right click lol

plucky flax
#

Also you don't even need to aim.

#

Only staff more chill to play is burga.

fresh reef
#

I mean tbf, you only really need to aim a little bit with Void

#

Most things are standing still or running at you in straight lines

plucky flax
#

Void in my hand is very slow at dealing with shooters.

#

So I have to use assail to supplement it.

sweet beacon
nocturne dust
plucky flax
#

Surge I just spam right click at shooters and kill them all.

sweet beacon
#

i'm 90% sure it only applies to the weapon that activated the blessing though

#

could be wrong but i've never heard of it being a global buff

fresh reef
#

It's a buff to any damage you can inflict without a weapon change

sweet beacon
#

jfc fatshark

fresh reef
#

I mean they still fixed it, thankfully

#

Uncanny Assail was certainly something

latent mauve
tulip kettle
#

thats... not how it works

#

uncanny works on soulblaze because its a DoT

#

it used to be that whatever weapon you had equipped at the time would proc that weapons blessings on an instance of damage, so for example, assail could work with uncanny

#

but now it doesnt work like that

tulip kettle
#

the only thing that still works is zealot throwing knives because they dont equip a different weapon, unlike psyker blitzes

fresh reef
#

That's what I'm saying

#

Thanks for explaining it twice though

tulip kettle
#

lol

sweet beacon
tulip kettle
#

just being pedantic, but they are not the same. You can switch weapons all you like. If i throw an assail then swap to a weapon with uncanny before the assail hits an enemy, i can still never proc the uncanny with the assail. But if i stack soulblaze onto a boss, then swap on/off my melee with uncanny, i can proc uncanny on ticks of the soulblaze when they tick when i have the sword equipped, regardless of if i swapped or not

The Rashad is the second strongest horde clear weapon in the game
