#

No

#

Hmmm

radiant frigate
#

is it just a shitty columbus

near drift
#

It has powderburn, the most bait blessing in the game

tired oyster
#

I wonder about the hacker shotgun

#

That any good?

near drift
#

It's okay on psyker but vet gets the most use out of it with weapon specialist

tired oyster
#

Hm ok

#

Honestly, I've been exclusively playing ogryn and psyker

ornate hamlet

tired oyster
#

Making builds in my freetime

broken carbon
#

can be fun

#

Unless you have a kings hoard of plasteel you probably just want to wait until the crafting update to mess around with new guns

tired oyster
#

True

#

I'll stick to Columnus

patent mango
#

how good is man stopper with true aim talent?

#

never thought about that combo befo

broken carbon
#

shoot, reload, melee 5 times, repeat

patent mango
#

does db even get any headshots for it itself

broken carbon
patent mango
#

nice

#

cant test it yet i dont own manstopper but in crafting update i will....

cosmic sigil
#

Soon manstopper 4

#

More stagger;

ornate hamlet
#

stops more men at once

mossy oyster
#

you can do it better/faster

#

get true aim -> manstopper -> assail instant stack true aim -> manstopper again

#

Would you guys say Illisi is still considered meta?

mossy oyster
#

I like Illisi

#

but deimos is just 🧑‍🍳 🤌

#

also im quite "tanky" for being a gunker

radiant frigate
#

curious

#

how did you manage that

#

skipped 3stam curio?

stark crown
#

Probably 21 HP and 2 17 toughness

#

That’s my guess

mossy oyster
#

well crashed so I cant show curios

#

but the main perks are 21 hp/17 tough/16 tough

#

I also drop faster assail regen for an extra toughness node

stark crown
#

Valid

verbal thistle
#

no

radiant frigate
#

Yes

patent mango
#

toughness nodes 🔥

mossy oyster
#

considering changing some of the sub perks to stam regen though

#

probably the 5% toughness regen ones

#

the amount of times i havent been able to shove something cause im scriers running at mach 11 and have no stamina lmfao

#

not too much but enough to annoy me

verbal thistle
#

run +9 stamina

#

you only ever need 90 tough

mossy oyster
#

soyker is a toughness battery, true

fresh reef

I run zero extra stamina just so kinetic deflection can build peril faster chadgryn

You gonna eat it for the T4? Or you gonna use it?

fair spruce
#

half a mind to rebless the t4 with something that'd make it somewhat usable

#

(while still a 550 must remain 550 big number best number)

550 will be a dime a dozen soon...

#

550 for now then change to what you want post update.

heh don't I know it, I have so. many. 380s just chomping at the bit

OR put blazing and nexus on it now. chadgryn

already have my magetank deflector swords lined up

I be searching for those ~360-370 weapons that have like a 40-60 in the dumpstatin my dumpstat

oh I always buy 380s no matter what

always buy 4 80% and 3 80%s

They make me cringe now that I know I can't upgrade them to become capital P Perfect.

I am also a purveyor and enjoyer of other exotic and hard-to-find weapons

it's expensive to keep these weapons off the streets and buried in a hole so that nobody ever has to look at them

#

your donations are tax deductible

#

please make all checks out to Stabitat for Humanity

I still can't shake the idea this weapon could unironically be a god tier addition to some loadouts and talent builds but I haven't really sat down and figured out where

how did I block the crusher overhead at 0:50

and take zero damage

he taunts immediately, so I did block it

I love assail

I over use it

instead of weakspot

#

ah

its not really a gun psyker build, its a melee + assail build

Okay, maybe you're redeemable.

#

thoughts?

verbal thistle
#

why middle aura

#

the crit 😦

radiant frigate
#

one with the warp

#

i have tried both auras

hollow current
#

seems like a fair alternate if you want the CDR. not a whole lot different.

verbal thistle
#

the mind in motion is a wasted talent though

#

thats why I was confused

#

on middle aura

radiant frigate
#

mind in motion actually gets some use

verbal thistle
#

but if it works it works

#

just slide when quelling

radiant frigate
#

i have been using it with force swords

hollow current
#

It's not a huge divergence but yeah. The quick quell was nice for when I used a few times it before update 13 KEKW_ogryn

broken carbon
#

i’d get rid of the final node on SG and take PC

radiant frigate
#

true but it is nice to be able to quell while moving normally too

broken carbon
#

other than that

#

it’s good

radiant frigate
broken carbon
#

huh

#

why

hollow current
#

I'm not too attached to Endurance but I feel like PC isn't terribly great either. I'd track damage and maybe it'd make up 5% of the output? Maybe 10 if I'm lucky.

radiant frigate
#

to grab more toughness nodes

hollow current
#

Of course there are situations where it'd be a godsend to have.

radiant frigate
#

and yeah pc is kinda meh in a lot of cases without other soulblaze to capitalize on it

radiant frigate
#

with flame shriek it's great

#

ramps up real nice

broken carbon
#

even 2 elites in a horde will kill the horde

hollow current
#

PC would have been great in that clip.

radiant frigate
#

but if it is the only source of soulblaze it feels very situational

hollow current
#

While it has its moments, I just don't feel it's too useful from my experience or worth the risk when that shit head elite is camping the DH.

clear heath
#

Is anyone else gonna waste all their ordo when the patch comes out, trying to roll a perfect 80/80/80/80/60 weapon?

#

I want an illisi with 60 warp res

radiant frigate
#

probably

#

i have 5mil

spiral sky
#

hollow current
#

Set the auto buy to 300 minimum and get one with 80/80/80/80/0

radiant frigate
#

force sword maker, i need your forciest sword

clear heath
#

I won't settle until i see perfection

#

i'll get 79/61 rolls and throw them into the trash

hollow current
#

less warp res better tho aint it. higher peril means bigger warp rider buff.

clear heath
#

well yeah, which is why i'm aiming for it to be the lowest

#

if every weapon is a 380, 60 is the lowest possible roll

radiant frigate
#

a possible 380 after upgrades

#

you could still roll lower starting stats

clear heath
#

oh true

radiant frigate
#

you could have an 80/80/80/80/0 that immediately summons a daemon on special activation

clear heath
#

imagine how many ordo dockets you'd chew through trying to get one

radiant frigate
#

cursed sword but doubtlessly powerful

#

Yes

#

i feel poor just thinking about it

fiery stratus
#

This is one of those wtf is even happening moments

sweet veldt
hasty valve
#

I mainly go purgatus and void, sometimes accatran with bb/assail and in the staves case im guessing optimized vs hordes when they get close, but some stagger on elites would be good too

#

But maybe rashad is better for that, mostly works for my vet when they get too close

what is the current state of the surge staff can it hit weakspots or what

strong gulch
dim citrus
#

well that is dissapointing BUTTT that frees up the skill tree some

There was a window in which there was a cosmetic change to lightening that caused both smite and surge rmb to hit random parts including weakspots, but that is no longer the case.

vocal socket
#

just got this. I know it's not perfect (will be after update) but what else do I need to build around it?

strong gulch
vocal socket
#

cool

#

what talents should I use with it right now?

late sapphire
#

ds4 or deimos melee for single target, i recommend ds4...
talents wise definitely blaze shriek

#

keystone i recommend warp siphon if you want staff focus

vocal socket
#

perilous combustion and wildfire I'm assuming?

late sapphire
#

there's a pinned surge build it should more or less do the trick

#

wildfire sucks

#

PC is great

#

keep in mind blazing spirit caps at 6

strong gulch
late sapphire
#

so shriek after you light em on fire

strong gulch
#

This is less trauma focused but still uses it a lot. All of your tools are fairly evenly used.

vocal socket
#

lol that was literally my build other than kinetic presence instead of seer's presence

strong gulch
#

If you really wan to focus and sweat with trauma tho, do the WS build.

#

kinetic presence doesn't do much megachingryn

#

I wonder how big of a damage increase it would have to give in order for it to be a Seer's Presence competitor.

late sapphire
#

wildfire does nothing

strong gulch
#

Not true. This is the ONE build that it has impact, but I suppose playstyle has an impact as well.

vocal socket
#

I've been really curious to try the fire trauma. Trauma is my favorite staff by far. I feel like I run through 95% of auric maelstrom without even switching weapons lol

strong gulch
#

The WS build is for you. thumbsup_ogryn

late sapphire
#

I'd estimate it at maybe a 5% damage boost all in all

strong gulch
#

I use KD, but I know not everyone does so I don't put it in a build when sharing a general build (but I recommend it). A single crit should fill your toughness bar (at least vs a horde or multiple enemies) with mettle, but soulstealer can be a comfort pick.

Post update, idk if the blazing spirit from staves will have its cap changed, but T4 blazing spirit seems like it will make wildfire less useful.

Right now, fire trauma has medium amounts of SB application and benefit from things "pre-cooking". RMB trauma can hit and kill a lot of enemies at once.

brazen rampart
fiery stratus
#

Nah, damage wise not crazy dangerous, but disorienting to say the least

patent mango
#

gonna be able to do god's goofiest build when the update comes out lmao

#

i think i got crystaline will instead of warp rider in this image actually oopsie

late sapphire
#

Man i really wish they did something else with the explosion talents

#

IDK venting shriek should apply a 7th stack of sb if you use it while exploding

#

Hire me fatshark

jovial juniper
#

I'll probably be able to Scrier's Surge even harder

late sapphire
#

But yeah that build looks like it might be peak

#

You should really get together with hahnda and do some build brainstorming

strong gulch
#

I hope there will be so many goofy builds.

patent mango
#

i just wanna make the silliest melee psyker build tbh

late sapphire
#

I'm looking forwards to taking the peril reduction node and changing nothing else

patent mango
#

oh yeah

#

i also wanna make a staff m1 spam build with surge staff + surge blessing

#

it might actually work out

strong gulch
#

You can already do decent damage with just LMB spam. It's gotta be better after the update.

# wind spruce Keen af to skip it on gunker builds

I use it cos I'm bad at the game, but I am so chuffed that people don't have to path into it. Now people won't have to do a brain flip if they had on some builds or not. Or be forced into taking it just keep thing consistent.

late sapphire
#

idk i think 'near infinite block' is something to have in your toolkit

#

Then again that is mostly the vermintide player in me speaking

strong gulch
#

I use it to res too, but I also make really sus decisions like "I got KD I can res em." and fumble lol. That's totally a me problems tho lol.

strong gulch
wind spruce
#

It's obviously a good back up at most skill levels, but I've eventually reached the point that I just don't get stuck in rager packs or need it for chaos spawns.

wind spruce
#

Most of the time I can get the res in with or without KD by throwing out some stagger. What stops the res more often than not is things you cant parry

strong gulch
#

Ye. I see in line with bubble, deflector, gunner resist, etc. Good when you need them but positioning and decisive action and planing are better IF you can do them.

wind spruce
#

Eggzachary

late sapphire
#

Eh i run ds4 surge sometimes i don't want to clear out the 10 random trashmobs around a downed zealot

wind spruce
#

I will always take two gunner resist tho because I enjoy being able to charge into gunner packs like a moron without getting punished

late sapphire
#

It's more a convenience thing than strictly necessary though, i will admit

#

Then again all talents are

wind spruce
strong gulch
wind spruce
#

But on a trauma build? Pick something better

strong gulch
#

If all of my other builds have it, then trauma is getting it too. I can't remember what the light switches in my house do. I gotta take KD.

wind spruce
#

Consistency is an extremely valid argument

strong gulch
#

BUT with new tree can skip. I'm still taking it tho chadgryn

wind spruce
#

But yeah, I was running a build without KD for the first time in ages last night and I didn't notice until I aggroed a DH with shriek

strong gulch
#

no think only block

wind spruce
strong gulch

#

Like do I really want to sacrifice 25% peril for 25% reload speed? Idk

#

Oh on zarona fuck yeah!

#

Good point

strong gulch
#

I need someone to build the fastest reload speed gunker after the patched drops.

wind spruce
#

The reload talent on the IAGs + that talent should be damn fast

#

I wonder if they stack additively

strong gulch
#

I hope so. I want it to be fast enough that it's a detriment. Like not regiztering that you in fact reloaded and just dump more mags onto the ground.

wind spruce

That would be great

i recently started playing again for the first time since the talent tree work and although I WANT to main psyker i'm simply at a loss for the best assail builds

#

and the internet has barely been helpful

strong gulch
#

Crap internet and this game is a bad combo. If no one is around to answer, there is a guide in the pins called the Atheneum. It is dense tho. There are different sections like class mechanics, current meta, and example builds.

#

In about a week we are getting a big update that is adding more to the tree and giving players access to weapons that were previously restricted by class. It will also have a crafting update.

brazen warren
#

oh cool

#

do we have details or just a summary of that stuff?

we are all slaves to Hadron Omega 7-7

strong gulch
#

There's some info on assail in that a guide. Some other things are that the LMB / primary can interrupt or stagger a lot of enemies. The charged / aimed/ RMB shard takes more peril.

A wayward shard can aggro a daemon host.

At 85% peril your ability ( shriek + creeping flames) applies 6 stacks of soublaze. The DOT is strong enough to take out fodder and even snipers (if they are close enough).

also I thought soulblaze was like... not good above malice? did it get a buff at some point?

You have to stack enough of it tho. The faster the better (for the most part).

PC (perilous combustion) is one of psyker's best talents.

Surge is surprisingly ok at low rolls. Be careful not to explode tho.

shrewd spoke
#

y'all are so kind to the scrubs ❤️

#

(it's me, i'm the scrub)

strong gulch
#

Most staves have wide scaling. Trauma has the widest. I don't recomend even touching trauma until you're level 30 so you can get decent rolls. Low stat trauma is so bad.

#

I am also scrub tbh.

hollow current
#

Trauma scaling is absurd.

#

the other not so much imo. at least not on all of the stats matter unlike trauma. quell exluded

shrewd spoke
#

at least i wasn't crazy thinking trauma was atrocious

#

anyway, see you nerds in the strike teams. potato you've given me much to consider when i hop on tomorrow

Another build that is more chill than the other two is EP BB with purg. That is Empowered Psionics (purple keystone node), Brain Rupture (formerly brain burst but still called BB here lol), and purg (fire staff; rifthaven mk 2 purgatus force staff).

What are good melee weapons to spam light atks with through the keep swinging mod? 1 for horde and 1 for single enemies unless there’s one that do both well

#

Rashad on my vet is good, spamming light vs horde and heavy atks when elites get too close, but tried antax yesterday and it felt pretty good too for psyker

stuck sinew

Devil claw for hordes

#

Or force swords

mental grail

^^^^^^^

#

hasty valve
# plucky flax Illisi.

That's my main weapon since forever, the issue with illisi is that the keep swinging swings often override special button inputs, so it's basically random when you can charge it up. At least for me

#

That's why I'm looking for a more "straightforward" melee that just has strong light atks and preferably a nice atk speed to it

radiant frigate
#

or you stop using keep swinging

#

or you add the confirm special activation mod

the damage isn't great but it's still okay I guess

#

If I own level 4 blessings from earning them, ill keep them when the update rolls around, right? and also, concerning perks... Do i need to use a weapon more than i already have to unlock +25 dmg perks through weapon mastery?

fervent yoke
plucky flax
#

It shouldn't be that RNG?

static needle
#

And you will still be able to earn blessings after the update just from yoinking them from existing weapons

fervent yoke
#

and for perks I think you can just keep using the +25% ones without grinding anything

static needle
#

?

fervent yoke
#

Not earn but you can sacrifice weapons to get xp for mastery track

static needle
#

bruh in that case it would be smart to earn all the blessings i can before the update drops?

All kinds of weapons, but weapons of the same weapon family will give more xp

Im trying to get back into this game before the big update. Are force force swords still shit =and if not whats the best one?

terse saffron

illisi and deimos are usable

#

obscurus still meh

#

all of them still overshadowed by DS

thorny snow
#

darn i was hoping they weren't just worse than DS

rigid sky
#

Illisi is very different from DS

#

And Deimos, like all force swords, at least has the amazing push attack

#

So I wouldn't say it's strictly overshadowed by DS4. I use Deimos more than DS4 tbh

#

I wouldn't want any other weapon over my Illisi for my Surge staff build specifically, for example. Duelling Sword would be mostly redundant.

plucky flax

Deimos better horde clear than ds.

to deflect things, obviously

every time i somehow die first and see a very rare deflector user they misplace their ult and die to a couple of gunners mowing them down in seconds

dying to gunners is a skill issue

either all of them didnt invest into stamina/block/peril block at all or the blessing is doodoo

You have terrifying barrage locked on

knotty star
#

It seems I do

patent jacinth
#

It’s a totally dead blessing

knotty star
#

Nah

#

Why?

patent jacinth
#

It only suppresses enemies within 8m of you when you kill something at close range

knotty star
#

Yes lmao

patent jacinth
#

And suppression is already dubious to devote a blessing slot to

patent wing
#

it only suppresses ranged enemies

#

if it would work against all enemies i would use it

knotty star
#

It does lol

patent jacinth
#

And anything inside 8 meters is very easily stabable

strong gulch
#

Terrible barrage is funny for lmb spam memes. But it doesn't suppress infested enemies nor elites. It does work in melee tho.

patent jacinth
#

It’s fairly worthless compared to warp nexus

knotty star

I swear on my life for using it for almost 1k hours it works will all enemies haha

That's literally not terrifying barrage.

(Horde enemies are infested)

If you use mods, you can check with creature spawner.

No?

lethal lagoon
#

There's two types of lil "horde" enemies

#

The stronger one is infested

#

The weaker one is unarmored.

patent jacinth
lethal lagoon
#

Unless you do a lot of testing without terrifying and then with, it's going to be kinda hard to tell what it does.

#

A lot of the game just isn't intuitive.

#

Like for example, your carpace damage on your surge? That only hits Crushers.

#

Maulers are flak body, so surge needs flak for them

strong gulch
#

I wish terrible barrage was better or at the very least also worked on infested. More funny lmb spam please. Especially with the update.

lethal lagoon
#

Surge only hits bodies, which means it hits a ton of flak

#

I hate that you have to use RMB to trigger LMB buffs

#

No pure LMB builds

patent jacinth
lethal lagoon
#

But I guess it's better for the overall build enviroment.

Like: suppress enemies in a 2-4m radius when you kill a target (any range)

knotty star

#

Just in case you also didn't know, common pitfall, critical damage perks do almost nothing.

#

Same with weakspot perks.

#

Unlike other games, they only effect the difference in damage between a weakspot and a normal hit, not the whole hit.

#

So like if it's 500 damage, and then 800 damage on the weakspot,
10% weakspot damage is only 30.

welcome to dt

#

My first "meta" staff was 5% crit chance and 10% crit damage

#

(crit chance is still good in plenty of cases)

#

I used that thing for hundreds of hours

#

Because in literally every other game, that combo is good lmao

#

It's even worse on surge staff, because surge has a stat with crit damage, and crit damage is additive.

#

So it's double bad on the "crit stick"

strong gulch
#

Like, if you don't have mods and know code, you legit would not know things on your own.

lethal lagoon
#

Speaking of wrong tooltips, Surge crit stat tooltip is still wrong

patent jacinth
#

To find stuff out like weakspot damage you have to do a lot of math and testing

strong gulch
#

Always will be.

lethal lagoon
#

Well tbf, you just have to test it with and without the damage perk, but the pysch without mods isn't exactly fun to use. And who would think that "Crit damage works weird" and think to test it?

#

Like this is the one game it works this way.

strong gulch
#

Even more if you're trying to do BP testing on surge RMB because of the random damage it does. 😂

strong gulch

true

lethal lagoon
#

The best perk for Surge btw is Flak, because the RMB only hits bodies, flak covers the most number of enemies.

#

Flak + Elite damage/Crit Chance is the most common one I see.

jovial juniper

#

I like unyielding for shield bois and bosses.

Flak + unyielding I mean

Flak is BiS for Purg and Trauma too, they also only hit bodies

The psyker mains will say riposte and the the zealot mains will say precog.

Take riposte. The buff window is longer and does not require weakspots to function. Crits will also trigger multiple things in psykers talents tree.

I solved my issues my validating my game files. Ofc one of them failed. However, when I fired the game back up, it was still choppy. So I restarted my PC and the game started playing normally. Mods were not an influence. The problem was still there if they were on or off (patched or not).

strong gulch
#

The game was unplayable until doing all of that. I missed out on playing on with Ball-Cancer and Doctor-Pee. 😭

#

The match I got after fixing my my game. It went poorly. It was not chill. They were fun, but also worse than bots in a number of ways. We lost when I died like a silly by turn my back to where a horde usually drops down, I didn't notice the horde was approaching, and I chose to slide vs dodge w/ block to reposition. I failed everyone.

what's the move then?

#

it has T3 perks carapace and unyielding already with t4 fleshtearer and a t2 blessing

late sapphire
#

Smackdown sucks huge ass

#

flesh tearer can work well due to high crits particularly if you run sg

magic kayak
#

mercy killer?

late sapphire
#

uncanny + flesh tearer/riposte/mercy killer all work

magic kayak
#

ah uncanny I forgot you can get that on knife I strangly dont have that yet

late sapphire
#

smackdown is outright just huge dookie because it means you have to interrupt actual dps every 2s, and it actually has to stagger as well

#

riposte gives the same crit but on dodge and for 6s

strong gulch
#

If we're talking about psyker, you have to have a bleeding blessing for mercy killer.

late sapphire
#

oh right i forgot

magic kayak
#

yes I was thinking t4 fleshtearer

late sapphire
#

yeah mercy killer is out as well

magic kayak
#

for the bleed, then mercy killer for the dmg

late sapphire
#

run uncanny riposte usually or uncanny flesh tearer if you have a source of giga crits like sg or true aim or the like

strong gulch

Uncanny + flesh tearer is pretty good. You can also get great use out of the crit blessings.

#

Uncanny good.

uncanny is just outright peak

I usually run this on my SG build but I hadn't thought of the combat knife for it

I run riposte/uncanny

late sapphire
#

Shred is ok though

mossy oyster
#

on my mk6 SG build

magic kayak
#

Ok I do have t4 headtaker and decimator

late sapphire
#

decimator is theoretically much more powerful but if you whiff...

magic kayak
#

so basically you have to string heavy hit one shots right

late sapphire
#

nah just has to hit

magic kayak
#

it doesn't say chain, so its just every 5 seconds to refresh?

#

answered my own question. alright thanks

late sapphire
#

Nah decimator is less than 5s

#

Idk what the actual delay is but you basically have to keep hitting

#

Headtaker is more forgiving thus has way higher uptime

#

Hence decimator having a way higher stack cap

magic kayak
#

and headtaker is raw power increase whereas decimator finesse is attack speed and crit / weak spot multiplier
