3 shot maulers
On a side note
The fire shot has 15 suppression value iirc
Add that to the fire shot spread
And you can supress a huge area from far away
(for 1 or 2 seconds)
12hp damage taken in chasm logistratum. I was trying for 0 hp after realising I didn't take damage after mid event. 
Ciag user napping
the loathsome ammo eater
He'll slurp the ejected casings right from your gun

lowest damage for me is ~40hp
ranged maelstrom with 4 bubble psykers 
only took damage resing people
my lowest is still 300. yeah im ass
have u tried playing the a coward and cheesing the game?
no i like having fun 
thats your fault
I got 5 damage once. Deflector is a heck of a drug.
i need to use my defence deimos more
no you dont
yes you do
@cosmic sigil up for some games later?
block effeciency stam deflector deimos
(i’ve seen this in a game before)
(they put block and stam on themselves)
they sucked
Oh ho. 👀
whats a good assail build?
Are you level 30 or still leveling? If you are 30, assail is usually used with guns or voidstrike. A more balanced build (using not just assail) typically goes for DD (right side purple nodes). If you want to focus more on assail, take EP (middle purple nodes).
They Talk about Knife Zealots.
They Talk about Gunkers.
mmmm, I'm gonna Knifker.
I like voidstrike and dd
Axe Zels are basically Knife zels but cooler
rashad zealot too chad too beautiful too strong i’ll never go back to knife
rashad very week pls buff
rashad psyker interestingly enough not the worst thing i have ever seen
with various power/finesse buffs it does a good job
sg/dd/warp rider
but also, the lack of attack speed makes it kind of ??
I run all on soul blaze , wildfire etcetera,.. then assail and trauma staff. And a knife for super speed.
Assail for elites dogs, trauma for big ones and horde, knife for posistioning.
You can't take wildfire and assail.
ah yeah, i'll be on later, i wil hit you up if i see you online!
"knife for positioning" is still such a cursed combination of words
I am not on darktide.
PM me on discord.
anyway i just got blasted off the map by a barrel (thank you zealot)
Probably unintentional. 
yeah the lack of attack speed oustide of scryer is a bit bothersome
or, ever
sg has no attack speed
sg gives finesse
that it does
and finesse impacts attack speed
no
oO
finesse as a % bar stat on weapons does
other than that finesse refers to crit/headshot multipliers
It's okay you can get 10% attack speed soon.
otherwise this blessing sounds like it would be stupidly insane
so you mean that the finesse you gain from scryer does not impact your finesse modifier?????
"finesse damage" > true,my bad
so yeah, rashad feels slugish
and mobility is okayish
anyway i do better with a knife or a taxe
taxes are not real
like death
true
No
Finesse is weakspot & crit damage
Only “finesse” in the 5 stat distribution impacts atk speed
I am devastated
yes i have explained this
i hate taxes so much
finesse vs finesse damage
Thanks fatshark for the continued great naming of things.
Also I am to blame for not reading scryer description correctly
scry some more
(it is good fun once you get used to it)
i wanna say scrier's is to shriek what infiltrate is to voc
is it the best most versatile thing?
perhaps not, but it has some juice to it
@buoyant maple this one is melee_finesse_modifier_bonus
It doesn’t boost atk speed
i was using a ds / cb + ciag / recon build
Yea, in practice they’re the same
so asail sg and dd with rashad and zarona
I’m gonna write precog as +M.fns because functionally it only works for melee attacks
💀
rashad and zarona has to be one of the least psyker weapon combinations out there
right next to rashad laspistol
U can’t use any attack that can weakspot/crit hit other than melee attacks while it’s active so it being “T.fns” doesn’t change anything
i think vent and warp charges would have worked better
like a lot
i think i would like warp charges more if their base function was "get damage" rather than "spend to reduce cooldown"
I also like how Decapitator is called stacking_rending_on_one_hit_kill
zarona does not care about crit node, and so does rashad
Did u know that trauma increases stagger duration by up to 61%

I didn't 
you get them back so fast tho
I need to make an "I HATE RENDING" meme
only with shriek methinks
What if I go Trauma Thunderstrike 
with sg less so
brittleness trauma and brittleness axe?
Brittleness trauma staff is actually good though 
And Thunderous is the brittleness blessing
Thunderstrike is like Skullcrusher but impact
Flurry/rending shockwave trauma ain't as flashy as blaze trauma but it's okay
It's equally as bad as blaze trauma if not even worse.
True, buff Trauma staff
So true bestie
Oh yeah I forgot blaze trauma is trash and needs a buff silly me
Duh
Is there some kind of trick to doing untouchable
I saw that
cleaning my kb
what's untouchable
Just found it.
that one was buged
i got it randomly when the penances came out
Low Intensity Malice
you can abuse overtoughness from voc on vet
Oh is it?
idk if they fixed it by now
IDK
Just play shout vet on low difficulty and yell whenever anything scary happens
but that one and bullseye i got randomly
I've had it done forever so idk. I didn't take damaage when I got.
you can use this tactic to also get On Overwatch at the same time
Anyways, regen toughness and stack over toughness. Ranged hit can tick down your toughness, but melee with make you take health damage.
Trauma is not available on most weapons actually
pushes are 360 degrees but not push attacks
Edit: Had "pushes and push attacks are 360 degrees". I didn't pay attention to what I was actually typing.
pushes yes push attacks no
blocks also yes
pffft sorry I did not type what I thought I typed. Thanks for the correction.
yw
I went to check the list and the Trauma Thunderstrike combo is available on the two weapons that I use a lot
Sapper Shovel
Indignatus crusher
We are going meme material
Hmm
Wonder if it affects the power blast of the Crusher
Probably not
Yeah dodge and don't get hit. 
Just do trauma + skullcrusher
Then it would be a legitimate build 
trauma is only dc right?
Claw? Hammer also has trauma.
Sapper shovel
DC sword
Crusher
Maybe thunder hammer?
Forgot
Hammer has tons of impact blessings 
claw has enough impact blessings to make a crusher blush
real pic of a claw with impact blessings
reminder that this canonically was used on V if he/she had the audacity to get a job
its a weapon from cyberpunk
yeah i know
that happens to look like a peeepeee
it's a one handed club
shock maul weapon custimization when?
Sir Palustiff or something
And the filtered version is like
A coffee thermos

Do we dress our psykers like wizards or crackheads in the psyker channel
I have like 1 crackhead loadout

Everything else is just moebian Blue chest

Unless this is for a penance, swap Kinetic Presence for Seer's Presence. You should grab PC (Perilous Combustion).
But also, if you like your build, then cool beans.
Achlys Mk VIII Combat Axe
Aligned the Heavy 2 and Heavy 3 attacks to the Heavy 1 attack profile. > does this mean they changed the moveset or just the dmg profile?
Zealot chat might know.
i was aiming for the extra dmg, but ill give that a try ^^
You'll be getting a lot more damage with shriek being up faster.
Felt. That aura is kind of a trap. It doesn't really hit meaningful break points. You do way more if you can spam creeping flames more. That's not including the procs from PC. If interested, you could also drop BM and WE for mettle and perfect timing to allow better positioning and more damage.
More shrieks = more soulblaze = more damage.
I don't have much experience or knowledge with combat axes, but similar verbiage was used when talking about the heavy 1 on DS2 to be aligned with DS4 heavy one. I don't remember the exact wording.
They finally fixed it. It's in game now.
What? DS2 already does same damage with heavy 1?
Yeah
Ye.
What the hell? XD
That's why I've been advertising DS2 as of lately
Should be OP for my voidstrike build.
Since I need to horde clear with sword at times.
Is lingering influence glitched? I have the 10s node but my stacks disappear after 4s
ds2 h2 with 100% cleave
DS2 lights are faster and def horde clear better. The H2 is still weaker, but it also has some cleave.
diagonalish
Visual bug.
thanks!
Let's see if that bitch hadron is going to give me a nice ds2.
Light heavy loop
my fear
The H1 S loop for big threats isn't too bad. If you use the special a lot on the DS4, it's not the much of a DPS loss.
i am note sure achlys problem is one of dmg
Rampage is useable on the DS2 but just because of the H2
For sure. Iirc, @plucky flax likes rampage on DS.
Not perfect I want carapace rather than elite. Waiting for the 26th. 
Still tasty tho.
Hrm even just light spam is better horde clear than ds4.
Agent we shall play tomorrow
It seems to attack faster.
Yip. Wider and faster.
how much did you spend?
perfect stat dist gimme.
Yeah the heavy 2 angle is too acute. I think I'll just light spam.
Well you got 4 lights
Not much only like 2k plasteels.
malcador the sigillite himself was gonna teach me the secrets of the imperium

Neckbeards are gonna get madge when the star child will be reincarnated in a woman.
Let me tell you about the 13 years I have waited for the penultimate volume of ASOIAF
I probably won't see the ending.
But I am sure AI will finish it for us

at least they revealed the king in yellow and we know hes a loyalist

fuck you
There is a lot of explaining to do with it
the day ||constantin valdor|| turns will be the end of the imperium
Like how did he become the KIY?
no one told you to stop making that face or itll get stuck?
snorting psyker ashes
They did, so I kept making it even more cause I thought that'd be funny.
That sure backfired on my teacher.

Me when my ass catches on fire during the naked breakdancing competition in the Four Kings arena in Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition
Quelaag's Furysword
Question, what was the best map to complete the cliffhanger penance for you guys?
Do yall know if smites buffs apply to lightning staff? (mainly the whole extra jump thing)
it used to, but no, not anymore
i got mine on smelter complex, in the final area as the smelters turn on
The mission where you upload bad data to the cogitator array - at the last segment when there are two bridges the hordes flood in from
so i take it no reason to take it on a lightning psyker build using the staff?
not really no
kk thank you, assail is good for clearing the chaff right?
You can try this. #psyker-class message
I mean, it's pretty good at it but nothing to write home about imo.
Surge staff is still good, it’s good at taking out armoured enemies
For surge focused build no. For a smite focused build yes; buy this I mean EP smite.
The general surge build and smite build confusingly both use surge and smite as a heads up.
Smite is good at crowd comtrol
You can use surge but isn't it like the worst staff rn?
It can help with chaff (especially if you mix in melee swings), scattered shooters, and can take out specials and smaller elites (a few primary shards followed by a charged). The primary shards can interrupt and stagger even ragers.
Yes, but that doesn’t make it bad
It’s still good in aurics
I guess but feels weird to me to call it good lol
Depends on how you use it. It's great at specials and shooters and has better monster dps than trauma.
It isn't the strongest in terms of raw DPS like void, but it is good.
It’s getting the surge mod, instant top tier, if lightning headshots can double hit
Surge surge lmb main with cleave talent let's go
Well, it's still the worst though. Like, unless you really can't aim, void is just a straight upgrade and every other staff easily handles elites/shooters except maybe purgatus, but purgatus eats everything except crushers.
Bold of you to assume it will be like void surge and not trauma surge
I can hope, since it can headshot
Unlike trauma
Counterpoint: surge does projectiles and the lightning is not a projectile
I hope not, that will make me sad
anyone know if "finesse damage" applies to warpfire damage?
I am trying to type and get a thought our but it is not working. Word retrieval is failing me hard.
INSTRUCTION UNCLEAR: SURGE ON SURGE STAFF NOW MAKES SMITE SHOOT DOUBLE LIGHTNING
Trauma rmb/ channel doesn't count as ranged damage for the +5% ranged damage talent node.
Maybe that has something to so with surge not working on trauma rmb.
Finesse refers to headshot damage, soulblaze only targets the body of its victims, so it does not benefit.
Finesse damage is weakspot and crit damage.
The SB dot doesn't do those.
gotcha, makes sense
I agree. It's the worst but still good.
I'm curious what the updates with do to it.
Also, it me. I can't aim,
Damn potato got it
Psyker truly is the aim-impaired class with how many ways they have to not aim
Surge is actually pretty good
I regularly outperform everything else with surge
Might just be me though
Well, yeah. I'm not saying it's bad, just the worst of the staves. It could definitely be worse.
Now that is a take I disagree with wholeheartedly
Eh, yeah, but you don't need to keep firing when the enemies are dead, and that's what void do
You aim in so far as picking out elites in a crowd goes, sure, but in every situation as long as anything is within 24m you can permanently maintain peak output without pausing
I don't see how that's different from trauma or void, except void doesn't have the range issue
Complexities reduce output
In fact, void is better because rather than picking out elites, you just bowl your way through everything between you and the elite
With void or trauma you have to spend time aiming and it's fairly hard to immediately swap targets
I mean, I can easily do it within the charge time necessary to kill the thing
Within the charge time yes
With surge you don't even need to wait for the 'next charge' perse
I can be blasting a crusher, hear a special behind, turn around with the surge already going, and in the turning motion itself the guy dies and i go back to business
Idk maybe if you learned how to surge at high performance you'd get what i'm conveying intuitively
Instead of talking shit about a staff you haven't experienced the intricacies of
Clearly you used surge incorrectly then ;)
Uh huh
Well first you're assuming I don't know what you mean, but I do. I get surge lets you just rapidfire and ease your brain, but the thing is there's no real need to? Like, what else will you do if not aim while using your staff
No, it's not about 'just rapidfiring' or 'just easing your brain'
You do still have do aim, arguably as much as with other staves if you're going for kills for pc in a complicated situation
It's that the aiming mechanism is different and you have a certain freedom of action the other staves dont have
Sure, but... just increase your mouse sensitivity?
Like, idk how that freedom really does anything for the player that the player can't compensate for with skill
Nothing does anything you can't compensate for with skill
You can clear the game with a white shovel and nought else
For void staff do you need to full charge the ball
Well, yes, but I mean this freedom you're talking about in particular is 'basic skills everyone should have'
Or just partial charge headshot for flak
You are thinking of something different from me i think
Maybe.
I dunno i guess i am trying to convey something fairly ephemeral and i am tired
I mean, idk do you have a video that can help explain or something?
kinda got to get a feel for what kills certain enemies. partial shots are fine for shooters but the elites may need full charge
or close to full
Surge might also just kinda suck and i'm really good at using it idk
It also depends on your staff's stats, void can easily work with a number of stats and +flak is a thing you could or could not have
Generally, you don't need to full charge for most low HP specials at least
Well, don't get me wrong, surge doesn't suck and isn't bad, it's just not voidstrike/trauma.
Surge is good, but it is a different style of doing things. It is for fast and impatient action.
Surge could also be considered a PC and creeping flames enabler.
On it's own, it isn't as strong as trauma or void, but it also kinda sits is a different place.
I've heard other classes call surge staff the most morally correct staff because it doesn't blind people or knock things around/ over.
One of my favourite things about surge is that it lets me keep and eye on the surroundings and interrupt anything within 25m immediately
I've saved so many vets from crusher overheads it's not even funny
tbf, bad smite users displace or stop enemies in bad places
You can do the sameish with void or trauma but the margin of error is much smaller and you have to react before it happens
I mean, yeah voidstrike requires weakspot hits but that's pretty easy with a bowling ball
I remember when surge hit like 6 targets and was way more CC (could guarantee stun mutants on first hit), and people complained about the same things that they complain about smite.
Old surge was kind of dookie yeah
yeah. You can stay squirrelly af
Not enough damage to kill stuff that well not enough cc to properly control hordes
but people stick shocked the horde
Keep in mind yknow surge was so good they had to limit its range
no
old surge can one shot gunner
people just dont do fully charge
spamming it crazy and said its for CC
gunners have more hp now
They should maybe undo that 
why do people not fully charge surge
i see that all the time and i dont get it
i also dont use surge
i don’t like looking at the charge animation
clearly a fidget spinner needs to be attached to the side of the surge staff

because old surge charging time was way longer than now
and never look at max charge damage
also dont know warp flurry exist idk
holy arco
hi arco
You need flak + elite and a full charge to kill the scab gunner. It still doesn't one shot the dreg gunner. Also with surge's random damage and needing crits to kill stuff, it can be hit or miss on shotgunners without the elite perk.
i need 2 test the surge random damage
Either there's stuff around and it'll die from flame or there isn't and you left click
jumpscare
But yeah the breakpoints on surge are kinda eh
surge needs 2 get buffed
if we are talking about old surge, can we discuss it with old gunner HP as well
It's not a huge window, but it's enough to where a trapper lives without maniac on a low roll. A lot of stuff is a full charge then a partial or a primary.
maybe with the buff to malefic momentum
melee with surge weaved into it
might be good?
Ye.
Or no one is taking care of anything that shoots. 
i continue to wait for a laser staff
beam staff and bolt staff
I hope they add coruscation staff
immediately
objectively best vt staff
stab somebody for malefic and crack of bone and go ham with holding lmb
we shall have a rapidfire single-target dps weapon where you can feel incremental damage increases instead of living in breakpoint city
None of the staffs need buffs
Buff surge
Buff surge now
Buff blaze trauma as well uncap the stacks free my brethren
No we won't
die
Silence 4x complainer
Bring a barrel and I will
Void needs a nerf
surge needs a buff, void needs a massive nerf, trauma is fine, could use a small nerf to explosion radius, purg is fine once uncanny gets nerfed
I wonder if I am crazy enough to try 0 talent point hm twins on soyker

i did that yesterday
was really easy
Or if I will simply explode from rage 500 hours in
Purg shouldn't have infinite cleave.
purg should have infinite range
Yes, you are
I will mail you anthrax
should go through walls as well
idk, i think fire is fine with having infinite cleave
the only thing i could agree with is stopping on carapace
i think its doable as long as you bring 3 ogryn gluggers along
on a bulwarks door
Nah, solo
but if you remove fire's cleave then you nerf flamers and purg enormously
infinite cleave is silly because it scales with density
they already do
sort of
but removing infinite cleave is not the same as annihilating it
the bulwark still dies
you can still give it high cleave
they inflict burn onto one bulwark
Void could do work with the specials but psykers base is so bad in comparison to vet or zealot
fair
idk
i think flamers are in a good spot right now
Exactly. Removing infinite cleave shouldn't affect most scenarios
making enemy hitmass actually matter to purg or adding some falloff would be nice, because the limited range is just not a meaningful detriment in a game like this and with psyker's toolkit
they do their job well, and they cant kill carapace
yeah thats fair
i kind of wish the direct impact of the purg and flamer actually did useful damage
if they reduced cleave but made the impact of the flame deal damage
id like that actually
The limited range is not meaningful because it's a huge amount of range still
would help make the flames feel a lot more physical
that too yeah
my brain has been rotted by the amount of people that i have seen complaining about its range
Add custom animations where the heretics writhe in pain and agony as their flesh melts off their bones
I fear cosmetic changes to our tools. surge smite flashbacks
Purg technically has cleave and falloff
Direct damage i think
Although the burn suppression goes through all
Me using the close range psyker staff as a melee weapon (magic scawwy)

I definitely underutilise m1
THE SNIPER IS
would you look at that
he's dead
psykers may indeed hold a holy purpose...if pressed
Yes
Understandable 💀
clearly you should have brought scriers and EE
why this karking force sword block push give peril !! x) what a shitty way to explode
scrier's moment
don't have scrier
but yeah can't use a force sword with scier or you would go boom
which is sad
not that much
i did try some time but even through you don't use you're speciale the block push will kill you
it still cancerous
we can use it with normal weapon but du to this weapon generating peril on block push you can't
force sword push attack also staggers anything smaller than a boss
at range even
even throug it shouldn't make you boom
smite left don't
brain burst don't even at 100%
and kinetic deflection don't work at critical peril
just the different way spyker can go boom are so inconsistent
with bb it depends on the peril you had at the start if the cast
below 97% is the safe zone
kinetic deflection only ever gets you to 97%
finishing a cast when you were already at 100 beforehand will make you explode
charging and cancelling is fine
with staffs you will also explode if you charge up to 100 and then let it go
eh happened to me, except is was a whole team that died there .
this drop can be deadly quite enough
Block push doesn't
Block push attack does
don't spam left click or peril some before you spam
bb under 100% can't make you boom which is inconsitant with other boom mechanique
bb charge generate peril and release generate peril but if under 100% you can't do boom
staff do the same but they make you boom
smite left auto vent at 100% like plasma left click but staff left click don't auto vent
smite is also stupid
half the classe is stupid or badly designed even through its the second best after the vet in my opinion
or bugged
or unbalenced

badly design maybe, but i would like to say lack of variety
especially ogryn and zealot
not too fond of ogryn
y'all got any tips for quell cancelling beause by sigmar i am really struggling getting it consistently
have a good keybind for it i suppose
i have my reload on [V] so that i can do it while moving in any direction
probably won't be good if you still have your dodge on space though
Someday I'll learn to quell cancel
q m1 q m1(really fast)
Yeah but my fingies
people who can quell cancel reliably are an endangered species
We’ll be having an Itemization Overview dev blog with more details coming out this week should everything go as planned. I’ll tell ya now though, the general advice will be to keep your guns so they can be sacrificed. When it comes to the amount of blessings, if you have all of T4 and about 1/3 of T3, you will already be maxed out at mastery for that weapon family.
its only like agent and pykeks left here
or just bind a macro
true
Blitz cancel. That I cannot do.
imo you dont need machine gun left click
although its fun
I can't reliably do m1 quell cancel, but at least that is doable.
few quell cancels are enough for you to stagger or suppress enemies
than do your right click
sometimes i can do like 3 or more m1 quell cancels in a row but it just falls apart after that
M1 quell cancel is less "needed" now since the speed increase to staff fire rate.
Trauma rmb quell cancel tho, do it.
i've been messing around with trauma quell cancelling and i'm either failing horribly or can't tell if it makes it faster or not
for example, few left click flame to create space, than start charging for horde clear
It is faster. However, if you can't do it reliably, you're better off not doing it.
edit: about trauma rmb
ah alright, from what you said earlier it seems it's significantly faster too?
2:35 showcases trauma's charged/ RMB quell cancel.

ye
Pls change mk2 ds h2 to fully horizontal 
It's a vanguard attack and with rampage that's op
It's 40k physics.
put warp in there and you have a deal
DS2 H2 is def weird. At the very least wtf is that wrist angle?
I've done it irl with a cavalry saber.
It's not an estoc, it has a cutting edge.
Its wrong
its skinny
it bends
it only has compressive strength
when theyres more of a ductile metal the more it bends
looking at a pov ds stab its just a dot
swords also bend on the opposite sides of the cutting edge
you cant slash with a rapire
i mean you kinda can
but you cant use it like a heavy sword
I've literally slashed things open with this.
Also rapier still has a sharp cutting edge though.
In real life
It's a US Cavalry saber
This is a Maccabean saber.
Slashing is very capable for both weapons.
u sure you're not using a skin
Maccabean swords are sabers.
a very maliable edge
It's in the flavor text.
"Most Imperial swords are simple, heavy affairs, designed for the unskilled NCO to use with lethal effect. Not so Maccabian sabres, which require years of practice to master."
That is the default mk2 skin
it's different than the mk4
okie
i stand corrected
ds4 is fine
ds2 is not
they should be different families then

and idk how someone would "duel" with a saber
they shouldnt call it a duelling sword
Sabers have been used for duels all the time.
They aren't poor dueling weapons by any means.
"During the 17th and 18th centuries (and earlier), duels were mostly single combats fought with swords (the rapier and later the small sword),"
pretty sure rapiers were mostly used during duels

sabers are more of a horesback weapon
The Model 1860 I used was literally designed with fencing and duels in mind, making it an actually poor Cavalry saber.
i mean you can also use a gun
im talking about whats most common
You're talking about things you might not know the whole truth of.
Rapiers is a broad term. What little it know is that a lot of them are beefier than what you'd picture.
sabers didnt even originate in europe
What century do you think my 1860 saber originated in.

do you think duels also came with it or were they there before?
The 19th century is when sabers were used more for fencing and academic duels.
The fall of cavalry in its traditional role forced the switch.
Sabers became less useful with multi-shot revolvers.
So they became lighter and lighter over time, seen more as an article of dress than a primary weapon.
Duelling was always a thing wut
Dueling sabers as a sport became a particular fad in the 19th century.
Not saying they weren't dueled before, mind you.
thats roughly within the span of when warhammer started 
I've done a bit of dueling sword and we had optiong between rapier and saber (but saber were for older dude mostly)
i understand but dont like it
you get the most cutting force from striking with a saber using the belly
i dont think it would make a good weapon for horizontal sweeps
looks like the same to me

I hate Hourglass
Personally, I think I'd uninstall.
Lmao
Why did the mutant throw you forward 
I stopped trying to get A.S.S after the 3rd death like that
Hourglass isn't my favorite zone either. Especially if you get the 90/10 Dreg to Scab split
Oh boy 
You can do it in auric.
16 books is always a auto rotate through and 6 deathless runs depends on mood
the start and end 
Let's see if my team and I can survive.
I find this kinda funny considering just about every blade in Darktide (DS included) is impractically chonky compared to real swords
big = cool 
Hrm wiped at end event. The vet went down then ogryn went down trying to save him. 
all swords bend
Swords that don't bend, snap.
the reason sabers are curved is to be better at cutting
Kinda how metallurgy works.
(and the side benefit of being able to work around guards)
sabers will only bend a significant amount when they collide with something hard, like another blade, a shield, or armor
Then they bend back. (most of the time)
I wouldn't know, I only practiced with polearms and the longsword.
Really funny to have your gourd get rang by a poleaxe without dying.
boonk
Instant pounding headache from hell.
so you DID wear a helmet
Of course, we were using actual weapons.
Goofy.
You think I'd get hit in the head without one?
it was a callback

It's like the 4th image back in my camera roll.
Really easy to just grab and post.
This is your nickname now, btw.
LMAO
It's in your notes.

Grats! Been using the trauma surge I got the other day and it's been slappin
Aw Hahnda, where'd you go? I was like, woot! And then I went, aww. 😦
what's the good perks on trauma ?
Flak and 5% crit chance for Blaze Trauma
For Trauma Surge, well that's a meme, so if you have to ask you probably shouldn't be memeing just yet.
If running a blaze trauma(which you should be) crit is most important perk. 2nd probably flak. Killing a group of shotgunners and seeing everything die around it with perilous combustion is all the dopamine.
Flak is BiS for Surge, Purg, and Trauma. They all hit "body" and flak covers the most important and frequent bodies.
yeah
ye
most enemies are registered as flak for central mass
like atlas said purge, surge trauma and all damage over time types target that
Everyone knows to become a heretic you have to register the body armor type of your central mass with the Warp Authoritarian Party(WAP)

horrible post 😡
I wouldn't say it's a meme. Def worse the warp nexus or w.e it's called but def usable.
And I have to use it cause locks. QQ
I don't see how wasting a blessing slot on having your LMB get double shots on rare occassion is a not a meme



It's constant 5% crit for blazing. And I can use left click and take out lone high value targets pretty effectively
it could be a constant 20% crit
Warp nexus is a consistent 16-20% crit?
Yea
5 > 20
Plus you have to edge for warp rider anyways
It's not like you are edgeing just for warp nexus
There's also 20% damage.
And with quietutde edging also basically extends your toughness bar by 30-40%
Cause you can quell it all anytime

its tru im quelling rn
All true. I said above it is worse. Will change it with crafting update. 😭
crafting update will fix it

My decayed body is prepared for this game to finally release out of early access



I still bet you are going to play for like 3 hours after the patch and then quit.
Decided to come back to the game after a long ass break, is the good old Surge Staff Asail fire build still any good?
i had faith FAITH
my man
I don't think that was ever a normal build.
i havent changed gear in 400 hours
I mean Surge staff is strong with shriek, so I guess though.

fuk u
i have good shit
I think 3 max level ones shave off a full second? don’t quote me on it though
shit thats bad
^ I'm literally quoting you next time someone asks about this.
I feel like it's good on anything but Oggy
ye i have one free perk slot for zealot since i have 3x hp+toughness and 2x gunner
Cause Oggy doesn't need the extra spd
blaze trauma very underpowered, pls buff
idk what to use the last one on
corruption resist like cole said seems like the best option
memory crash :(
stamina regen
personally
(I'm a dumbass and manually set my paging size a month ago. no issue until now lol)
its on zealot tho
statement still stands
I’ll post my curios when I get on in a bit
I use em on every zealot build but Marty
That's not nice, they put in a lot of hard work and effort into the talent trees. You should play more builds.

she's a little stupid
I run 2 wound curios and 17 toughness
thats cool BUT
BUT
BUT
i bricked every hp and 17 toughness curio i got on zealot
Beloved says this keeps me noggin safe (grandma psyker voice)
i will not play momentum or BP until the crafting update comes out
Uninstall it’s over
dogs xp curio chance
the drip goes insane
mutant grim hounds
Moebian chest is underrated on psyker just look at the fucking cool hand tubes
hounds block bombers
like this
🗣️
That's some "Dead in the first scene to impress upon the audience that the scenario is dangerous" type attire.
my new psyker drip I’ve got recently has to be my favorite loadouts I’ve made so far
imagine getting hounds and mutants 7 times
It's mostly the helmet
Everyone knows main characters show their faces
power gloves one for each hand
And their stylized hollywood perfect hair
Stupid fucking psyker throwing and waking up daemonhost with soul blaze

FUCK YOU
Soulblaze doesn't aggro deamonhosts, it just gives you the aggro if someone else aggros it.
Unironically watched a psyker wake up a dh with smite earlier.
IM STEALING YOUR COFFEE AND PUTTING IN THE WRONG AMOUNT OF MILK IN IT
me giving clad ptsd
I was like "buddy, watch out with the smite." and he didn't stop in time.
Woke the dh up, died to it, and then dc'd.
Smite follows similar rules It won't pull the DH. It'll just give you aggro priority if someone else pulls it.
me having actually good drip for once? idk, I'm considering it
I was playing with unepic one time and our smiteker said kite them over here so I don’t wake up the DH
Oh, then someone else aggroed it.
silly little smitekers
Yeppers
Still, total smiteker death.
This is good sibling
Very bourgeois.
I mean it will "wake" it up, so it does make it easier to aggro.
I retract all of my negative opinions about kinetic deflection being a crutch
I will show you some fellow drip later
you guys know that one long bring at Archivum Sycorax?
I use it to get “free” revives
I had one dude in light out wake up 2 dhs and die to them
The bridge of many martyrs?
we spent most of the game as a trio
or the green one where they run down a bridge
had a DH spawn back there in the corner, and it was surrounded by gunners
while you wait for an elevator
no no, the one actually in archivum
one special spawning door on the left
oooh I think I have an idea but I need to see the map
unironically
anyways you were telling a story
hang on lemme get a screen of one of skudie's clips, it's the same map
unironically tho
Yeah at the entrance of the Archivum
clad
where is the map quiz cards you were supposed to make
DH in clandestium beginning event:
working on it
i just have a few things to do these weeks and cant play as much 😭
speaking of which
gotta go make dinner
this bridge
real
had a DH spawn far, on the left side
Called it
surrounded by gunners
figured somebody was gonna aggro it at some point via suppression, so I decided to aggro it myself with BB
oh
tanked it KD and our chad of an ogryn mined it to death while I sat in a corner
genuinely massive KD value
KD + a knife = permanent DH kiting
real
also that is one fucked up spawn haha
the unmatched swagger of an EP BB user
I actually got lucky and got the black version of that hat
it’s reaaally good
(That’s because you can slap black on a lot of clothes/cosmetics and it just goes together)
I think this is it
my most utterly dreanged build yet
that, was extremely unfortunate lol
Are psykers getting braced autoguns in the next patch?
How use scriers gaze with staff? Just using it for melee?
bonus crit chance for blaze trauma
i used scriers void staff
(this build will be much better post patch lol)
So never using staff while scriers is ticking up? Seems like one charged thingy would take you to 100
I mean, I run assail scrier's with void, and I never use the staff while using scrier's.
I do use assail, though.
the ideal is to stack it with the new +5% crit on soulblaze kill with the node on scrier's that prevents you from exploding
Ascendant Blaze but on crack
Mmm
I get one good cleave in with illisi to get true aim, pop scrier's, throw an assail dart, and repeat.
noice
I do wonder if we'll see any max wound kamikazi psykers
we will
I don't quite like the idea of a "safety" node, but if you can otherwise spec to make the resulting explosion more potent then I'm all for the memery
and I will gladly accept the challenge of having to play with a sub 100k damage player 
there's a difference between the node above EP and the new Scrier's node though, mind
Ah, I cannae recall the blog post very well, so I should probably hold judgement till the patch
the one above EP makes you take corruption damage when you explode, but you don't go down instantly
the Scrier's node prevents you from exploding at all for 10 seconds after Scrier's ends
basically the same playstyle as overloading when you have Shriek available, but better
I see. Hmm. I wonder how that'll play out in the new psyker meta
But if there were nodes that buffed the self-detonation I myself might be keen to try it. But otherwise I'll probably be skippin' that particular talent
Any melee recommendations?
what are you looking for in a melee?
mainly chaff clearer. Was using chain sword but now that i hit lvl 30 i plan to make something il stick with
its not bad, but not sure how good it is at crowd clearing
Illisi is the king of chaff clear for psyker, though rampage DS4 also does work against poxxers
the blaze force sword V?
I think? I don't remember marks for the force swords
psyker bayonet 
(wrong screenshot the frist time lol). is this good for a gun psyker or just stick to accatran?
psyker plasma gun 🤤
thats the one, its sick
any stats youd prioritize?
kantrael's solid for gunpsyker
bit more difficult to use against bosses due to the slower fire rate, but definitely not bad
first target is a must, and ideally you'd want to dump warp res
kk, rng has blessed me with everything but mobility, assuming that dont matter a ton?
def not for illisi
force swords have pretty bad dodge distance so mobility isn't a huge concern
yo which curio stats would yall suggest? cus theres no "reduced peril" or anything
combat ability regen?
ability regen is goated, yes
other than that it's pretty much just personal preference
everything is good, save for the special resistances
yeah so health or toughness
