Anyone have any preferred perks for the inferno?

[tight nest]

If anyone would like to do a shitter run join me in strike team 50

[crisp yacht]

[brazen warren]

anyone else experiencing the director going absolutely beast mode recently?

[analog agate]

Definitely does it on occasion. I’m also enjoy the groups of 21st fodder in the new mode

[split lance]

@lethal lagoon @wind spruce lmk if a spot opens back up

[brazen warren]

got 5 rounds in a row where it spawned 20+ specials back to back inside non stop hordes

no audio ques either

[lethal lagoon]

We were waiting for ya, but you left the strike team, so we got confused.

[split lance]

yeah sorry i was away from my pc, taking care of my grandpa rn so what i thought was gonna take 5min took a lot lnger

[south gull]

can we even get the Vld recon las from brunt now?

[jovial juniper]

Yeah buy a recon then change the mark

In your inventory

[south gull]

Mine is called Vlc lo

[jovial juniper]

Yeah they changed bunch of names

For some reason

[merry raft]

any good builds for Illsi blaze sword?

my partner whos not in disc really likes the way it feels over the dueling sword but is struggling with it in higher level games

[jovial juniper]

Uncanny Slaughterer will do

[split lance]

Soulblaze and slaughterer

[south gull]

+maniac/unyielding

[split lance]

Is quite good

Oooh

Blaze force not soul blaze. Oopsie

[jovial juniper]

Also tell your partner that the push attack has a range of 9 meters

And is able to stagger and even knock down crushers

[south gull]

Gun psyker actually fun now

[young summit]

Always has been

[mighty cipher]

The real fun is BT Scriers

This shit is nuclear

[crisp yacht]

wot bt?

[mighty cipher]

Blaze Trauma

[crisp yacht]

oh nice

[thin knoll]

Anyone got a gunker build for the combat shotgun?

With sg

[tame venture]

is flurry+nexus still preferred for flame staff, or are blaze away, showstopper, and penetrating flame worth considering?

[thin knoll]

Blaze away

[tame venture]

also surge gives 5% crit now, is it worth or is it still bugged
i think it's on voidstrike and surge staff now

[tame venture]

BA instead of nexus right?

[split lance]

surge is very good

always been worth it

[tame venture]

i've been told that it's overvalued on voidstrike because it's either overkill damage or not worthwhile previously

[late sapphire]

ba nexus.

[thin knoll]

I kept nexus over flurry, but either way it's good

[mighty cipher]

Overkill is a myth. Don't listen to them.

[late sapphire]

flurry is good on surge because you charge long blast short

bad on purg because short charge long blast

[tame venture]

i thought flurry is important to keep flame staff from taking forever to charge

[thin knoll]

Nah

[late sapphire]

before the update flurry and nexus were the only blessings that do anything at all

thats why they were BIS

[tame venture]

i feel like i'd be really used to the handling with flurry on

[mighty cipher]

Depending on playstyle and build Flurry can be good. But if you want to be strictly optimal it's not the best.

[split lance]

OH @lethal lagoon @wind spruce

supressing fire like a g

[mighty cipher]

kek

[ornate hamlet]

Does surge work with voidblasts secondary?

[split lance]

wut

[wind spruce]

amazing

[mighty cipher]

No

[lethal lagoon]

I don't suppression works on human sized projectiles

[wind spruce]

no

[ornate hamlet]

womp womp

[mighty cipher]

It ONLY works with Voidstrike

[split lance]

FEAR FACTOR

[lethal lagoon]

Yeah, but you are that guy, making youtube videos called "FEAR FACTOR 017" and it's just you jumping over your fence and twisting your ankle.

[split lance]

Yall get off?

[split lance]

i spat out my chocolate milk

[ornate hamlet]

whatcha putting on voidblast then? Flurry + Rending?

[lethal lagoon]

Good, I hope it was a minor inconvience for you.

[tame venture]

wait so surge only has an effect on the LMB spam pellets? and not the void ball on VS or lightning on surge?

[lethal lagoon]

And may it randomly be sticky where you spat 2 months from now

[split lance]

i spat back into the cup

[lethal lagoon]

Won't matter

[mighty cipher]

It's pebbles and the Void ball

[lethal lagoon]

Stickiness defines physics

[split lance]

wouldve been better if i was exploding

[lethal lagoon]

You exploded my impression of you

[split lance]

what does that mean

is that good or bad

[lethal lagoon]

You aren't supposed to ask, you are just supposed to assume and be jokingly hurt.

That's mildy accurate to my behavior

[split lance]

i gotta ask

its in the guidelines

not even in fine print

get back on

i miss you both

[tame venture]

you know i just had that error too

[split lance]

i have 32 gigs ddr5 i better not need more fucking storage im fucking broke

[lethal lagoon]

It's one ur mods

[strong gulch]

Surge works on voidstrike's secondary but not on trauma (voidblast) and surge.

[tame venture]

me too lol

[split lance]

oh

my game just crashed

that works

[split lance]

i woke up unable to open my hand

and stayed home

[lethal lagoon]

[sly dawn]

are you guys having your disturb destiny stacks not stacking? like i get the 2.5 sec buff, but i don't get the other part and no stacks

[brazen rampart]

Ui bug. Restart your game.

[lethal lagoon]

Visual bug

Don't bother restarting

It's been around for a while now

[wind spruce]

im in strike team 2

you're showing offline to me @lethal lagoon

[lethal lagoon]

Cause I am

[sly dawn]

oh, visual bug, thank god, thanks for telling me

[split lance]

im in 69

[strong gulch]

LMB / primary spam. It does a surprising amount of damage. Idk if it's a replacement for flurry (when it's working) or not yet.

[tame venture]

does lmb surge need a certain stat spread or can i throw different blessings on one for a meme

[crisp yacht]

warp res is dump stat

[tame venture]

ain't that normal dump stat?

[crisp yacht]

damage and charge speed are most important on surge

[strong gulch]

If you're only looking to do LMB, dump charge rate.

[strong gulch]

lmb spam tho not regular build

[crisp yacht]

mmm

[strong gulch]

But if you just want to try it out, just change your blessings.

With flurry being scuffed and illisi stroke being bugged or nerfed, you can lean into lmb spam to build peril and thin out hordes in a non meme game and surge surge is nice for that.

[tame venture]

the difference probably isn't enough to make a test run boring

[strong gulch]

But there are also multiple nodes for funny lmb spam now.

[strong gulch]

To build peril then shriek.

[potent echo]

Disturb destiny

[lethal swan]

What's the dump stat on the Surge Force Staff?

[tame venture]

warp resist

you want to pile up warp so you can max power shriek on most all surge builds

[primal radish]

ive played with smite for like 10 games ever and hated it but i just saw the reddit post with smite plus -40% peril, didn't think of that at all lmao. It makes smite actually look fun to play

[lethal swan]

Awesome, thank you

[lethal swan]

What perks do you run? Carapace/Unyielding? Or Flak/Maniac?

[tame venture]

flakiac is the rule of thumb for pretty much everything, and what i think i use, by psyker anthem in pinned suggests: Carapace, Maniac, Unyielding, Crit Chance, Flak

[lethal swan]

ty!

[strong gulch]

If you're running ep smite and surge staff, the recommended perks are unyielding and cara.

[lethal swan]

got it

[strong gulch]

If you're running a regular surge staff build, it's flak + your pref of breakpoint.

[lethal swan]

ok!

warp flurry/warp nexus on the blessings?

[strong gulch]

I personally opt for flak + unyielding for perks because sometimes more monster damage is needed or I'm the only one who can DPS the boss. Also helps with bulwarks and reapers.

[strong gulch]

Pre patch it was flurry nexus. Flurry is bugged tho.

[lethal swan]

uh oh

[strong gulch]

I'm doing surge nexus until it's fixed.

Surge on surge on affects the lmb tho.

[near gale]

Question: How good is Wildfire with the Purgatus staff?

[lethal swan]

got it, thanks man!

[strong gulch]

It's good, but not necessary. If you are staved for points, you can drop it.

Wildfire is more needed on builds with medium amounts sb app. Like fire trauma.

Most of the time it's a skip because it's niche.

If I have room on my sb builds, I take it.

[lethal swan]

is warp resistance actually the dump stat on the force swords? Since you don't really use the charge?

[runic kiln]

hey fam whats the verdict on new smite applying to melee attacks? i havnt played with it much yet but feels neat

[strong gulch]

It's the dump stat even on illisi when you use the special a lot.

[lethal swan]

got it

[strong gulch]

underwhelming

[lethal swan]

I haven't played psyker in a while, so I'm trying to remember what the stats and stuff are haha

[strong gulch]

but if you like it and it's fun keep playing it

[runic kiln]

yeah obvi, i always play fun over meta, just wanted to know if its GOOD or not, cause i like it 😛

[tame venture]

it's basically kinetic flayer but kinda bad

[lethal lagoon]

@split lance Curreny Surgy Wurgy

[tame venture]

though one thing i wonder, is the shock maul has a blessing for damage on electrocuted enemies, does that work with smite augment?

or smite effected enemies

[strong gulch]

I keep forgetting to try KF after the buff. How is it?

[lethal lagoon]

Bugged on surge

like everything else

[strong gulch]

I know not the ways of smaul

[strong gulch]

nooooooo 😭

[lethal lagoon]

The second chain can proc bb on a mob

So it's still better than before.

[strong gulch]

This game hates surge staff

[lethal lagoon]

Or does it love it so much, that it can't bear for others to use it

[near gale]

Does this apply to soulblaze inflicted by the purgatus staff?

[tame venture]

it's the same soulblaze on the staff and from talents so probably

[strong gulch]

Yes.

[maiden hornet]

I've actually got that on my purgatus build. Yet to actually play it, but looking forward to it

[tame venture]

it seems really appealing but it's on the complete opposite side of most soulblaze build paths

[strong gulch]

It's really annoying placement wise.

Luckily mettle or soulstealer are in easy positions to grab. If you do EP BB, you can reach souldrinker with ease.

If you're trying to do a WC build and really focus on purg, it's basically our of reach.

[tame venture]

by design im sure

[strong gulch]

perilous assault and souldrinker should switch positions.

or just replace perilous assault with souldrinker

[tame venture]

i think they were put out of position so that you have to compromise to get it, and don't just get loads of power for little gain

[strong gulch]

While that's probably true, it's placement is nonsensical with what you would typically run it with. Even perilous assault would make more sense on the right side under MM since that incentivizes weapon swaping anyways.

[south gull]

is gun psyker supposed to be squishy

[tame venture]

psyker as a whole is

[strong gulch]

Ye. It's stronger vs ranged but you have to be in point with your melee and dodges. You don't have as much CC.

If you can keep critting and get EE procs.

[maiden hornet]

At least it allows me to take prescience so I can stack for soul blaze easily

[summer prairie]

Didn't notice Unlucky for Some was buffed to 100%, that's almost good

[strong gulch]

Yeah. I haven't tried it yet.

I forget who I saw asking about if it was buffed. I immediately forgot that talent existed after that convo.

[wind spruce]

It could be +200 yellow toughness and still be garbage

[summer prairie]

nope

[strong gulch]

Do you know if souldrinker stacks crit chance on each enemy killed or if it just refreshes the 5% crit chance?

[wind spruce]

Without a doubt

[wind spruce]

It doesn't stack, and for some reason it can't refresh while it's active

[summer prairie]

there's no refresh duration on stack tag, so might not even refresh

[strong gulch]

Huh

gotcha thanks to both of you

Kind of like old riposte when you had to wait for the duration to end before getting the buff again.

Kind of lol, just like.

[wind spruce]

Hopefully they change it because it makes it significantly worse

[strong gulch]

yeah it does

[wind spruce]

It's not too bad on purgatus or blaze trauma but I don't know if it's worth it on gunker atm

[plucky flax]

On zealot hell yeah!

I can meme now.

[strong gulch]

Unless you're doing an ep build with purg, I'm not convinced souldrinker is worth it even on purg because of how out of the way it is on the tree. It's strong toughness regen, but other talents work well for that.

Fire trauma would really appreaciate it tho, but so far away...

[strong gulch]

Nice! Congrats on getting one.

[wind spruce]

You're probably right, I just meant in terms of the effectiveness in a vacuum

[strong gulch]

Oh for sure.

[wind spruce]

I managed to fit it into blaze trauma but I had to cut perfect timing

[strong gulch]

I can fit it on assail trauma with DD.

But yeah, Perfect timing is hard to let go off. I might just try that.

Just eat the emotional damage.

[near gale]

Is it just me or does the surge staff crit more when you have it chain between 2 or more enemies?

[strong gulch]

If it crits, the chain crits.

[near gale]

Weird because with me just having 1 enemy zapped the crit is hit or miss... but when I have more than 1 enemy in the zap it seems to crit a bit more

[plucky flax]

Thank you 🙏

Maybe some meme vid later.

[strong gulch]

Yay!

[near gale]

Must just be a coincidence, or I am just losing it lol

[slate oasis]

psychic vampire or in fire reborn for a fire staff build?

[potent echo]

tacaxe on soyker

what blessings should i get

so many new choices

[potent echo]

fire reborn

[weak galleon]

what's the best second perk on Voidstrike for non-crit build?
Carapace, Unyielding, Elites, Maniacs, smth else?

[quartz barn]

Cara

You can even argue that crit build wants flak / cara as well because you can already get ~80% crit

[nocturne dust]

I think a build focused on all the hits on a target would be funny

but I haven't messed with tacaxe since the update

I should tho, something faster than Illisi that isn't DS would be neat

[weak galleon]

80%? on Voidstrike? Where's would that be coming from, aside from usual +5% crit or crit peril scaling blessing

[nocturne dust]

scrier's

[weak galleon]

i guess through Empyric Resolve/Inner Tranquility warp resist then?

[nocturne dust]

Warp Unbound lets you just spam balls for 10 seconds without worrying about peril

I do use Empyric Resolve on my SG voidstrike build tho, but you can get away without it

surge blessing also grants crit now

so you just have stupid amounts of balls flying everywhere

like, to the point where you can take care of the typical issue of enemies surrounding you with voidstrike balls and no dodging kinds of madness

but it's actually a very, very weak build which is why Fatshark should buff it

in case Fatshark is reading this

[weak galleon]

can you share the build please? Looks pretty starved for points, need to make sure what to give up.

[nocturne dust]

It is very starved for points, one sec

That's what I use.

Anticipation over Empathic is personal preference

[weak galleon]

interesting, ty, so you gave up toughness on crits.

[nocturne dust]

Yeh

[weak galleon]

and on generation too. hm.

[nocturne dust]

Mettle only activates once per attack anyway

[weak galleon]

oh, didnt know.

[nocturne dust]

You also want health curios for the build, and you do need to be good at not taking damage. That's generally my best skill.

[quartz barn]

I assume you pick warp charges for scrier uptime?

[strong gulch]

It was nerfed this patch.

[weak galleon]

why Etheral Shards? Should Void fill up assail role completely?

[nocturne dust]

yeh, stacking peril gen reduction

[quartz barn]

But doesnt warp unbound compensate the downtime

[nocturne dust]

Kind of, but Assail does help in specific situations where smite and BB doesn't, mainly when you have low visibility shooters

[summer prairie]

void is too slow with multiple gunners around, plus assail better burst dps on multiple targets

[nocturne dust]

Warp charges refresh the cooldown such that by the time warp unbound is over, so is the cooldown

[nocturne dust]

Not with this build, lol

[indigo creek]

for voidblast staff all stat seem important

which one can be a semi-dumpstat?

radius?

[nocturne dust]

I can kill a stupid amount of anything with this build

using surge VS

[quartz barn]

Warp res

[summer prairie]

you are running assail too, not sure what you are talking about

[nocturne dust]

I am, but I almost never switch to it

[summer prairie]

just saying assail is just fine with void

[nocturne dust]

Yeh

You can also use SG, dump shards, and then switch to staff

And not even have to quell

after spamming staff

it's stupid

[indigo creek]

I'm gonna steal you build real quick

got a smite build?

[nocturne dust]

Battle meditation also lets you spam into hordes for quelling

[nocturne dust]

Gosh dang I really need these builds on hotkeys, lol

[indigo creek]

Why don't you use 30% faster shard recharge?

[nocturne dust]

not enough talent points, 10 shards is enough

warp splitting improves the cleave too

[nocturne dust]

that's what I remember of my smite build

never use charged strike, lol

[weak galleon]

What's on stAff with that build? Blazing Spirit/Warp Nexus?

[nocturne dust]

Uh, wdym? For which build?

[indigo creek]

Why not??

[weak galleon]

crit void via Scrier.

[nocturne dust]

It does 60 damage. So, nothing.

[nocturne dust]

Surge and nexus.

[weak galleon]

afaik it has higher AoE?

[nocturne dust]

Nope.

It's just 60 damage. No stun, nothing useful. It sucks.

Like the least useful talent in the tree... maybe.

[indigo creek]

You can set them up for......the electric maul for veteran and zealot...maybe

yeah it's useless

[weak galleon]

wdym 60 dmg? Between no charge and max charge?

[nocturne dust]

Nah, power maul does its own electricity stuff

[nocturne dust]

Charged strike does damage on heavy melees. It does only 60 damage, over time via a couple ticks of like 15 each

It's the node directly under smite

[weak galleon]

ah nvm, i thought you're talking Voidstrike, not smite. was like wtf.

[nocturne dust]

Lol

[weak galleon]

i remember Void damage scaling was a lot less than now, a year+ ago.

going from 144 to 836 from no charge to max charge on Mauler's bodyshot in my case. (nonperfect void)

[nocturne dust]

I mean, the lmb spam staff is electro (previously called surge)

so you can do that

but yeah, definitely use rmb on voidstrike

[indigo creek]

Do you have to kill people with the weapons you want to level up, or does it count mission exp

[nocturne dust]

I couldn't tell you, honestly. I haven't paid attention to mastery much since I just sacrificed to max it out easily.

Sacrificing a weapon of the same category gives you like 9k xp each.

[indigo creek]

I'm missing 2 weapons, everything else is maxed

[weak galleon]

wtf happened to Obscurus in last year, why so weak. The single target special attack, that is.

[nocturne dust]

Fatshark magic

[weak galleon]

why would I use that over DS4 now.

[woeful folio]

[nocturne dust]

Well, you wouldn't even use it over Deimos

[weak galleon]

yeah exactly, from what I'm seeing.

[nocturne dust]

and Deimos doesn't use the special either, lol, it uses h2

Illisi is horde clear, Deimos and Ds4 is single target, obscurus is obscure and forgotten

[nocturne dust]

https://tenor.com/view/yesss-fire-mistazelf-excited-restaurant-gif-22088135

Psykers when the soulblaze hits

[potent echo]

anyone know what the new moebian horde have vs poxwalkers

its like flak body, infested head?

[weak galleon]

Speaking of, I guess Illisi with Void?
For a chance of getting surrounded. (out of all force swords, need to levelup FS mastery)

given that Void's single target headshots are pretty solid on big guys already.

[potent echo]

the hell the healthbar mod tells me they have flak heads

[nocturne dust]

Illisi is generally taken with voidstrike, yeh

[summer prairie]

they've 66% more hp

[nocturne dust]

Illisi with uncanny can pretty easily clear single targets tho

so you can easily use it against everything

[summer prairie]

and flak armor except for limbs seem to be unarmored (???)

[nocturne dust]

gonna be honest, I haven't even noticed them but I'm clearing the event so I must be fighting them, lol

do they have a unique appearance?

[summer prairie]

I guess they are armored newly infected

also higher hit mass

well technically, but the same on damnation

[nocturne dust]

wack, dunno how I haven't seen that

I guess the auric slaughter makes it hard

[summer prairie]

you only get them with this modifier

or variations of that

[strong gulch]

Ye. Cute lil outfit modifier.

[nocturne dust]

I use quickplay so I would guess I've run into them at least a couple times

[strong gulch]

I was wondering what their break down are. So higher hp and hit mass. with flak center mass, unarmored limbs, and the head is what? I don't want to assume anything.

[summer prairie]

I didn't actually test this, but their default armor is flak and exceptions only for limbs, so despite not wearing a helmet, head armor seems to be flak as well

Maybe some models have a helmet

[strong gulch]

Oh fair and gotcha.

Thanks

[nocturne dust]

Nah, Nurgle just blessed their heads

after all gotta keep them skulls pristine for when the Imperium uses them as decor

[slate oasis]

what are the best blessings and perks for trauma staff?

[strong gulch]

fire trauma

flak + crit chance and blazing spirit + nexus

warp resist is dump stat

[slate oasis]

ty 🙏

[stable hare]

is warp resistance the dump stat for voidstrike staff?

[nocturne dust]

that or blast radius

[lilac summit]

i just tried blaze away on the purg

and that is borderline broken

[indigo creek]

@nocturne dust I made a modified version of your build, it basically uses a few talents and a sweeping decapitator with a quelling perk to quell as much peril and slow build up while you're slicing through the horde, thus maintaining gaze https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9d1fe76f-7dee-435a-a8b1-c191189ff33e/assail-beheading?utm_medium=website&utm_source=gameslantern&utm_campaign=share_button

Carapace + force sword to decapitate crushers and maulers

really don't like using staff for some reason, I like battle mage playstayle

[weak galleon]

How does Block Efficiency work here?
What's the difference between, say, 56% and 86%, in practical terms?

[radiant frigate]

overkill and super overkill

[weak galleon]

probably need a creatur spawner/ai mod for psykhanium, to test it for worst case scenarios.
(ressing up an ally under focused gunner fire)

Does quell speed on Voidstrike affect the Transfer Peril? Or can I consider it a dump stat too for infinite void build.

all the voids I could get in the past are fucking 80% warp res lol

oh... worth or nah?

actually it seems in my case, yes it is.
Crafted 10 white voidstrikes.
8 are 80 Warp Res, 1 is 78%, 1 is 75%.
Fuck it.

[strong gulch]

When there's a good vet on your team and you have trauma staff so you can keep them protected and you both wreck everything. It feels good.

[slate oasis]

wait did they remove blazing spirit? it's not in my options

[upper sun]

did you unlock it yet?

[strong gulch]

It's still there.

[rugged narwhal]

how do yall build more gun focused psykers ?

[slate oasis]

nvm I'm stupid and was looking at the wrong staff

[strong gulch]

valid lol

[strong gulch]

SG and DD

Depening on if you want to extend the crit chance of SG you can take the quell on x nodes or take warp unbound and use the 100% peril window and use assail after mag dumping.

@wind spruce Have you tried this for WC fire trauma? You can keep perfect time and get to souldrinker. I had to give up the crit node and KD.

[slate oasis]

hmm still 4 points left even though everything is maxed out

[strong gulch]

Same. Permanent glowing dot. 😭

[latent mauve]

Monday pls fix

[slate oasis]

also no penance for completing it. can't complete the red staff collection 😔

is the amd fsr 3.1 frame gen better or the dlss frame gen better?

is Warp Splitting (cleave on peril) worth it on current void?
I remember times when Void had barely any cleave, but it seems it actually got some now?

[limber silo]

Does bolt pistol bring anything unique to the gunker table?

[dark lotus]

guys, have you tried building the best melee weapon for psyker, if yes, can you share your build

[limber silo]

The best melee weapon is subjective

depends on what you are looking for

Some would say Duelling Sword

[potent echo]

(this implemention of) Fsr frame gen fcking sucks lol

So laggy compared to LSFG or DLSSFG

[weak galleon]

damn Voidstrike Psyker my beloved, I missed you so much this whole year.

[potent echo]

I played tacaxe gunker

It's so goo

[cedar geode]

perhaps missing a blessing that is technically enabled in the backend but not visible on the frontend, weird

[wind spruce]

id definitely take crit aura over seers presence, and then another build i was trying dropped mettle & perfect timing for soulstealer and the crit node

[weak galleon]

Damn I miss the original Force Sword push.
Wish they'd make it into blessing, at least. oh well.

[radiant frigate]

what was different about it

my memory of The Before Times™ is not 100% accurate

[weak galleon]

significantly stronger, more AoE, increases peril on use.

so not usable at 100%, could blow up yourself.

[summer prairie]

it still costs peril as long as you hit something

[radiant frigate]

are you thinking push or push attack

[summer prairie]

I don't remember it changing but I don't remember what it was like during the beta

[weak galleon]

push attack.

it was a lot.. "heavier" in all senses, if my memory serves me well.

or wait, was it push.

because push attack is a single target, and I remember that thing being a very solid aoe.

yeah, push i think.

[radiant frigate]

pushes are still aoe

[weak galleon]

yes they are, but they were stronger
but also required peril.

so was a double edged sword

[cobalt bone]

the pushes were insanely strong on before the nerf on them

paired with the fast stamina regen it was quite fun to using those oh well

[strong gulch]

crit aura you say. I will give it a try

[plucky flax]

Blaze trauma still bad.

Why blazing spirits t4 so meme

[strong gulch]

Staff blazing spirit cap 12 when??

[plucky flax]

I'd be happy with 8.

[upper sun]

anyone know if all books count or just the ones in the modifier?

[plucky flax]

Or make trauma stagger green bois

It's dumb how they just walk through the blast.

[limber silo]

Idk, 10% more ults seems more beneficial than 5% crit chance to me

plus you get the added benefit of the ranged damage reduction node

[lost harbor]

Would you like my build?

[weary crane]

Anyone else's vsync disabling everytime they load in

[wind spruce]

No you don't?

[lost harbor]

If you change a graphic setting yeah

[limber silo]

If you take the 10% cdr you get access to One With the Warp

[wind spruce]

You still get that with prescience

[limber silo]

Nvm I'm dumb

Forgot what the tree looked like for a sec

Still think Seer's Presence is one of the most op nodes in the tree

[wind spruce]

It's definitely strong, but you have warp charges and psykinetics aura effectively giving you more than a seer's presence on every elite/special kill

[limber silo]

Yeah, but my allies don't benefit from warp charges and seer's presence is far more impactful than psykinetics aura

[wind spruce]

That is simply not true, psykinetics aura is far more impactful

[limber silo]

How many elites or specialists would you say you see on average in your standard games?

[wind spruce]

If you have a 30s ult cooldown over a 25 minute game, that's 50 times seer's presence will proc. You should be getting atleast 100 specialist/elite kills in that time

Also psykinetics aura procs more in the heat of battle when you need it the most

[limber silo]

Shit, I'm getting the names mixed up

I agree with you, I just forget the convoluted names in this game

[wind spruce]

It's confusing that the passive aura isn't the one with aura in its name

Fatshark ftl

[limber silo]

Plus I just returned from a long hiatus

Update drew me back in and it's phenomenal

Yeah PSYKINETIC'S AURA is the really strong one

It is probably the sole reason I take smite

[upper sun]

psyker only has two blitzes assail and BB

[wind spruce]

Yeah it's hard to give up assail but for psykinetics aura it's worth

[limber silo]

Even BB is a bore unless I take the funny hyper speed BB build

[midnight hull]

Man, playing purgatus with a smyker on the team, makes me wanna put a bullet in my head

[plucky flax]

Yes.

[radiant frigate]

i think purgatus does that in general

but alas, i have no bullets, because i brought purgatus

[ebon rose]

Purgatus my beloved

Just played a bit with penetrating flame
I can finally cook maulers at a reasonable speed

[vestal fulcrum]

That's why I run hybrid EP Assail-powered Blaze trauma Voidblast build

[mighty cipher]

Maulers where never an issue. It was crushers that would walk straight through the stream and cave your head in.

[radiant frigate]

maulers were extremely cookable

flak chest

carapace chest notsomuch

[mental grail]

what blessing do I pair w/ blaze away purgatus?

[ebon rose]

my ideal speed is more reasonable now than it was before

[vestal fulcrum]

Warp Nexus, most likely

[lost harbor]

Is penetration better than critical chance?

On revolvers

[upper sun]

nexus

[upper sun]

kinda but not really

60-80 pen only gets you like 5% extra damage

[lost harbor]

So it's better to have critical chance

[upper sun]

crit chance only gets you a bit as well

[lost harbor]

Then, what?

[upper sun]

mobility is still the best dump stat

[lost harbor]

It's at 80 anyway

[upper sun]

you can inspect weapons to see the range

surgical covers for the crit chance

[tired estuary]

Neither are a big deal as long as hand cannon and surgical exist in their current state

[upper sun]

and the crit damage bonus is already low regardless of the stat

ye

[lost harbor]

I use crucian roulette since it's the quickfire revolver

So

[upper sun]

@plucky flax btw

might be time to change your youtube @

[plucky flax]

Yo

[hearty dagger]

Shotgun Psyker my beloved

[plucky flax]

Wut?

I dunno how to do it.

[formal harness]

Bro isn’t selfish in war anymore

[upper sun]

https://www.youtube.com/handle

[formal harness]

Learned how to share eh

[plucky flax]

[upper sun]

malefic momentum is so good now with illisi

[radiant frigate]

why is it that when a crusher pack spawns my fps suddenly goes to shit

[upper sun]

bigger challenge

also i think there were issues with settings reverting after the update

might wanna check your settings again

[onyx sentinel]

i thought the +1 stack on blazing spirit 4 vs 3 is a nothingburger but 6 vs 7 stack feels pretty huge

specials and hordes die so much faster despite already hitting breakpoints

[plucky flax]

0 damage taken hishock train

[lone ravine]

does psyker force swords give peril on shove or something?

[onyx sentinel]

on push attack, yes

[lone ravine]

so thats how my teammate killed themself

[upper sun]

yes but only if it connects

if you accidentally to a push at max peril you can jerk your camera way from enemies and it wont generate peril

[lone ravine]

me watching a psyker just die after shoving trash mobs off them:

[patent mango]

the force push has gotten me killed due to scriers gaze a few times lmao

[lone ravine]

thats probably what happened to them

[formal harness]

gratz, 0 dmg taken solo train hishock when

[patent mango]

thankfully only the push follow up uses peril

[plucky flax]

Need unlimited train timer mod maybe on stealth zealot. Xd

[formal harness]

yeah havent tried a solo on it yet but must be painful without stealth

[plucky flax]

Also stealth got nerfed -1s duration.

[formal harness]

lmao

[plucky flax]

So the mini game is going to be too long.

Don't think anyone can solo currently with the tight timer.

[formal harness]

ill see if I can

[plucky flax]

[formal harness]

need to get the recording software

wish me luck fellers

[upper sun]

https://tenor.com/view/homeless-nah-id-win-gif-11399565856913576326

[lone ravine]

how long even is bomb minigame

[upper sun]

like 30 seconds?

[gleaming orchid]

feel like playing psyker is difficult but i'm not even playing on damnation or heresy

[onyx sentinel]

has force sword always had dodge distance penalty on 80 mobility

[lone ravine]

no way its 30 seconds.

[gleaming orchid]

am i crazy, is it me or my teammates?

[onyx sentinel]

that's wack when DS exists

[upper sun]

psyker has just less tools for dealing with big sources of damage

psyker is a lot better against chip damage

[gleaming orchid]

you can say that again

i'm playing smite and levelling is difficult

[upper sun]

you dont have iron will no holy rev no 500hp

[gleaming orchid]

very arduous in comparison to vet

[upper sun]

play assail for levelling

its a lot better than smite

[gleaming orchid]

assail for levelling

i'll make the pivot

[onyx sentinel]

stop spamming smite and use melee more, play it like a vet with no health

[upper sun]

also yeah

[gleaming orchid]

any recommendations on what nodes to get in the skill tree while i level?

[upper sun]

what level are you rn?

[lone ravine]

oh yea whats yalls opinion on empyric resolve

[gleaming orchid]

16

[deep pine]

does anyone know if it makes a difference cost wise if you empower a profane weapon to 500 first vs consecrate first and them empower?

[onyx sentinel]

it's pretty busted with m1 quell cancel, doubt they'll fix it though lmao

[lone ravine]

i can spam the flame staff for so much longer now lol

[upper sun]

try something like this

[summer prairie]

yeah that

[gleaming orchid]

cheers mate

[plucky flax]

Psyker is easiest for me.

Then zealot.

[upper sun]

try to ult at luke 86-87 peril

[gleaming orchid]

you is one is crazy

[upper sun]

doing that will kill any hoard

actually wait

[summer prairie]

mind in motion is key

[upper sun]

does creeping flames still kill hoards without one with the warp?

[plucky flax]

Creeping flames my beloved.

[lone ravine]

the instant dmg shriek being useful when:

[plucky flax]

Not me doing like 300k+ soulblaze damage on electro formerly surge staff.

[upper sun]

id rather momentum but i think its ok for starting out

[patent mango]

electro getting the (formerly twitter) treatment

[plucky flax]

Voidblast formerly known as trauma.

[upper sun]

once trauma

always trauma

[patent mango]

voidblast is probably worst rename cause of voidstrike being similar

[plucky flax]

Yeah what's wrong wih trauma idk?

It inflicts trauma upon the user.

[summer prairie]

get Unlucky for some when leveling so whenever someone goes down everyone gets 100% toughness back

[patent mango]

i forgot that talent existed

[sturdy tendon]

Vet>Zealot>Psyker for me

[plucky flax]

Well vet shout spam is just OP

We don't talk about it.

[sturdy tendon]

Vet and Zeot have so much built in survivability

[upper sun]

vet bad

zealot and psyker good

ogryn ok

[plucky flax]

P sword P gun P shout not nerfed

[fallow falcon]

What stat dumps do I want on psyker staves? I never use them but since I can easily chase godrolls now, might as well.

[sturdy tendon]

I mostly play Vet and Zealot now

[sturdy tendon]

Warp Resist

Damage on Inferno

Can also dumb warp Resist there

[upper sun]

warp resistance for all of them
for voidstrike blastadius
for inferno damage
for surge nothing

[fallow falcon]

Thanks

[indigo creek]

What perks you guys use on the staffs

voidblast for example

[radiant frigate]

flak crit blazing nexus

[indigo creek]

What about warp flurry and rending shockwave?

[upper sun]

flak on all staves

second perk depends on the staff

[strong gulch]

It's good but fire trauma simply outclasses flurry rending trauma.

[indigo creek]

Sounds like you need a few talents to up the crit rate, any builds you have?

[karmic glacier]

how am i meant to have fun levelling psyker

[radiant frigate]

use magic swords and magic powers and enjoy

[patent steeple]

I could respond with "That's the neat part: you don't." but idk if that would even be close to correct...

I no longer my time levelling psyker, because I have been at max level for so long...

[spiral minnow]

hi, got back after some time and my builds are gonne, any tips on what to be aware of specificaly, any big changes i should be aware of?

also any tips on buidling assail build again? jsut for casual playing, not harder than 4th difficulty .) ty

[mental grail]

I'm cheering honestly

[plucky flax]

Bolter is not bad now too.

But the draw speed is still slow.

[slender coyote]

bolt pistol psyker good?

[fallow falcon]

Depends on how optimal you want to be

[patent steeple]

in what way did VoC get nerfed, actually?

[plucky flax]

I said they weren't nerfed.

So it's still as OP as ever.

[patent steeple]

ahhhhhh... sorry, I misread "not" as "got"...

[fallow falcon]

I want to know why vet gets a full 6 seconds off their CD instead of 4-5% like every other class

It completely breaks VoC

[radiant frigate]

it is on specials only

[plucky flax]

They are just built different.

[fallow falcon]

The highest difficulty throws them at you nonstop

[radiant frigate]

i'd say it throws more elites

[lost harbor]

Could anyone try a build of mine? I kinda need opinions

[radiant frigate]

post

[lost harbor]

On it

[patent steeple]

I think it used to be percentage based, and when making it a flat amount of seconds the devs explained it with something like "its too strong with a certain build (the build in question having been the most-used build at the time), so we are nerfing it" iirc...

[radiant frigate]

if it was a percentage then it should have stayed one, because this is a nerf to the other ults, not voc

[mental rock]

well it was percentage before voc existed

[gleaming orchid]

that was much easier, thanks guys

[radiant frigate]

before voc existed we also had Shooty Stance™ refreshing toughness and making you nigh impervious to ranged fire

[fallow falcon]

Why does the new crafting system steal my stats as it levels up? This originally said 60 would be the BR cap but now its down to 57

[radiant frigate]

rounding error

[patent steeple]

wrong, it was still percentage during the first vet skill tree iteration (the one before vet had keystones, voc existed during that time already)

[radiant frigate]

brick btw

[mental rock]

so I never said anything wrong then

[strong gulch]

Mettle ws nerfed, so toughness regen got messed up on old fire trauma builds. Still working out if and why new nodes are worth it.

Fire trauma is flak, crit chance, blazing spirit, and nexus.

[patent steeple]

ahhh, yeah... you DON'T want high direct damage on Blaze Voidblast Trauma under any circumstances.

[radiant frigate]

not sure what you're trying to imply here

you want to cover as large of an area as possible with this

therefore brick

obviously you still want damage

[patent steeple]

but won't the high blast damage kill the targets before soulblaze procs?

[radiant frigate]

in the inner circle? sure

but then either way job done, targets are dead

[strong gulch]

Blast radius and charge rate need to be 80, especailly for fire trauma.

[radiant frigate]

the outer radius is the part that kills with soulblaze

[lost harbor]

Did my post not send Kat?

[radiant frigate]

sorry, yes it did

i just got caught up in the rest

[lost harbor]

Oh no worries

[fallow falcon]

lol

[lost harbor]

Do you want me to tell you how I combine everything or just try your self?

[rare light]

we got some build with surge staff?

[strong gulch]

trauma 80 vs 53 blast radius here #psyker-class message

[upper sun]

yes one sec

[plucky flax]

Yes the most OP build.

By some guy called Unsanctioned.

[upper sun]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bIwoaV-Dnc

this

OR

[radiant frigate]

off the bat there are a few things i would change, since it looks like the only source of soulblaze is pc here i do not think souldrinker is particularly worthy, battle meditation is just overlapping with by crack of bone

most notably though i would change around perks and blessings on your illisi

[upper sun]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9c4d4b46-bdd9-4ee2-8024-ba7a9752522e/surge-psyker-6
this

[lost harbor]

But overall it's okay?

[upper sun]

the assail side is more expensive but the melee talents are fun

[radiant frigate]

playable yes but i also think the curios could use some work

[lost harbor]

I still can't manage to find curious I'm comfortable with

[radiant frigate]

don't take my word as 100% fact but i have been using 2x gunner 2x sniper 2x corruption triple 5% toughness on the perks

[rare light]

thx mate 😄

[radiant frigate]

3stam 17toughness and 21health base stats

[lost harbor]

Yeah I spam light attacks and just mow down unarmored

[summer prairie]

if you want 3 stamina you are usually better off just taking 2 on your melee with most builds

[radiant frigate]

fair, we do have the luxury of choice now

could do flak 2stam and exchange stam curio for toughness

a trade worth considering

[lost harbor]

Well, about the ability tree what should I change?

[mental rock]

actually just looked it up and youre wrong, it was already flat 6s on patch 13, and nowhere in the patch 14 or later does it mention changing it

[upper sun]

i do the same as kat 3stam 21 hp 17 toughness but 2x gunner 1 curruption and the rest toughness and cdr

[radiant frigate]

i would drop pc/souldrinker/battle med and exchange for one with the warp and empathic evasion (and the tdr node above them)

since souldrinker will have not fantastic uptime with only pc triggering it

would make you a little less brittle defensively

[radiant frigate]

cdr is cool too but i still want the burster/sniper resist so if someone resses me into one (skull issue) i do not just die on the spot

[lost harbor]

Thanks!

[fallow falcon]

Alright, what should I put on this thing?

Flak/crit, blazing/penetrating?

[radiant frigate]

blaze nexus methinks

flak crit or flak unyielding depending on how badly you want to torch monsters

[strong gulch]

flak / personal choice and blaze / nexus

[lost harbor]

What perks were you using illisi?

[radiant frigate]

i run flak maniac uncanny slaughterer

though i am now also considering flak 2stam

[lost harbor]

Not unstable power?

[radiant frigate]

unstable power caps out at +20%

slaughterer caps at +40%

[lost harbor]

Oh damn

[radiant frigate]

unstable power will also fluctuate more since this is a scrier's build

[lost harbor]

What if I just change unstable with slaughterer and keep shred?

[radiant frigate]

whereas slaughterer just keeps going once it gets rolling

[radiant frigate]

works too but you will definitely have worse anti armor performance

but i suppose that is what the volvo is for

[lost harbor]

Volvo?

[radiant frigate]

revolver

[lost harbor]

I use shred to keep up with the crits so I can build 30 stacks of scryer gaze

[radiant frigate]

shred does not interact with scrier's stacking

it is weakspot kills aka headshot kills that stack it

[plucky flax]

It's Swedish luxury car.

[radiant frigate]

honestly a volvo could probably deal with maulers no problem

[lost harbor]

Yeah I meant it to proc crack to the bone

So that I can get maximum stacks of scryer, that's what I mean

[radiant frigate]

that also does not interact with crits

same trigger condition, melee headshot kill

crit is just extra damage

[late sapphire]

Keep uncanny it's also extra damage

[radiant frigate]

unless you have something else that triggers on crit like blazing spirit

[lost harbor]

Some perks really make no sense

[radiant frigate]

shred is also annoying because it resets if you whiff once

while uncanny stays

ofc you can use shred if you want but i do not think it beats uncanny

[lost harbor]

No you're right, I'm testing it right now because I never had these perks

[strong gulch]

TTS is the non warp crit quelling

[radiant frigate]

if you want to make yourself bulletproof in melee with empathic evasion and really high crit chance then i could see the shred pick, but even then riposte probably better

[strong gulch]

but it's ranged

[fallow falcon]

Uncanny isn't good unless you're relying on flames in your build

[radiant frigate]

thanks i will now call this talent "text to speech"

[radiant frigate]

weird take but ok

[strong gulch]

right

[late sapphire]

Uncanny is at the very least 30% dmg

Insane to call it not good

[radiant frigate]

almost forgot that conversion

yeah

uncanny is insane

[lost harbor]

I understand

[slender coyote]

good for crit recon psyker maybe with smite or assail

[fallow falcon]

Because you have to build it up, by the time you actually get to 5 stacks most things are already dead. If you're using a duelling sword or knife you're better off taking riposte/flesh tearer

[strong gulch]

Def good for guns. Assail is warp and smite can't crit.

[slender coyote]

crit for the recon to quell

more hits more crits

[late sapphire]

If you are low enough difficulty that you can't build up stacks each encounter it doesn't matter

Uncanny procs on hit with illsi its one swing

With ds its stacked after one mauler n crusher pair then come the next 20 maulers

[radiant frigate]

stab a crusher 5 times instead of 2 and then come and say that again

[fresh reef]

On a scale from 1-10 how good is KD + Block efficiency illisi at tanking a Gunner squad?

[fallow falcon]

Just 2 shot them with a knife

[late sapphire]

Precog riposte ds is runnable but eh

[fallow falcon]

I think duelling swords can oneshot them with thrust now too

[late sapphire]

Always could oneshot

Thrust sucks

Only use is to preload damage during travel time

[radiant frigate]

with just kd and block efficiency and no deflector, 1

with deflector, 10

[sturdy tendon]

Reliable mutie one shots are nice

[fresh reef]

Deflector assumed because gunners

[upper sun]

i love deflector so much

[sturdy tendon]

Which is why I run Thrust Uncanny

[fresh reef]

I'm trying to make psyker as tanky as Unchained

[late sapphire]

Stack your dd my little psyklet

[radiant frigate]

AQSHY

AAAAAAAAAAA

[sturdy tendon]

I usually run DS with Purgatus

[late sapphire]

Get that thrust shit outta my chat

[slender coyote]

oh yes, deflector and kinetic deflection

[upper sun]

tonk gaze

[slender coyote]

Pretty sure you can straight up tank a crusher overhead

[upper sun]

very based build

[fresh reef]

I miss that cm

[radiant frigate]

real

she was cool

[fresh reef]

At least we have Strawhat now

She's the perfect cm

Actually in tune with the community and active on socials

Big ups

[upper sun]

catfish is also posting again on the forum

[fresh reef]

I always saw catfish as Aqshy Lite tbh

Universally good takes with limited comms

[upper sun]

pretty sure it was catfish that fixed up the twitch drops

OK

time to play inventory for 2 hours

[plucky flax]

I think it's easaier to just scrap everything.

Then just buy new stuff from brunt and consecrate/empower.

[strong gulch]

Actually really good advice. Don't go through the mental burden if you don't have to.

[sturdy tendon]

Empowering is rather costly on the Diamantine

I should finish the event book collection tbh

Last two tiers give pretty decent amount of plasteel and diamantine

[strong gulch]

If you want to and want the mats.

[plucky flax]

Not having 100k mats?

[strong gulch]

You can always do lower tiers.

[upper sun]

idk so far cleaning up zealot and some of psyker i got 1 mil dockets and ~1k diamantine

not bad tbh

[sturdy tendon]

I want to collect Grims on my Marty Zealot tbh

Two birds with one stone tbh

[upper sun]

for the event?

[sturdy tendon]

Ye

[upper sun]

im down tbh

u got room?

[sturdy tendon]

I am at work

[upper sun]

😭

[sturdy tendon]

Not sure if I'll play after

But tomorrow I am off and likely to grind it down

[upper sun]

i doubt ill finish today tbh

[strong gulch]

Been using ER on my trauma build to save a point, and I'm finding it a bit too strong in slowing down my peril gen. So I have new trauma.

[upper sun]

people keep picking up grims and dying

[sturdy tendon]

It's hilarious how little grims fuck me up on Marty Zealot

[upper sun]

and terminal doesnt have scriptures just grims lmao

[sturdy tendon]

Oh I got 2 wounds down?
4 more to go then

Need to see what other ranged weapon I will grind now

Likely the flamer

[upper sun]

real

[plucky flax]

Do you run both ER and the peril reduction warp charges node?

Should only run ER.

[upper sun]

have they made any nice rashad skins?

[fallow falcon]

What Electrokinetic would be preferable, the perfect stat dump or the more even stat spread?

[slender coyote]

for once i have no idea

[patent steeple]

isn't Warp Flurry still bugged?

[strong gulch]

Just ER.

[upper sun]

jesus fucking christ

this was a huge mistake

[slender coyote]

that's so cool

I wish i was lemlem

[upper sun]

hes

dming me pictures on steam

[plucky flax]

Hrm true. I fell out of love with blaze trauma now.

[upper sun]

why did i play this game

[plucky flax]

I am so disappointed blazing spirits t4 is still 6 stacks cap.

[slender coyote]

WHAAAAAT

nahhh

Ok that's crazy

[patent steeple]

is it really? I legit thought its 8...

[strong gulch]

The 400 staff. The one with warp resist dump is the way to go.

[plucky flax]

It says in the blessing.

4 stacks per crit up to 6 max.

[patent steeple]

the "up to 6 max" part is not said in the blessing unless mods (I don't use that particular mod...)

[burnt steppe]

does this apply to the flame staff?

[patent steeple]

yes

[burnt steppe]

:)

[patent steeple]

its a bit overkill though (in my opinion, at least)

[burnt steppe]

wth is weapon wield speed bruh 😭

[slender coyote]

how fast you "pull it out" of your pocket

[burnt steppe]

oh

[plucky flax]

@patent steeple

Tested with debuff indicator mod.

[slender coyote]

not really overkill if it's free on your way down the talent thing

the more you kill the better especially with inferno staff

[restive ice]

it’s not free if you’re taking the cdr talent right next to it

[slender coyote]

but if you're already running a soulblaze build you would want that

in my opinion anyway

[burnt steppe]

more flames is more flames, 1 perk to be burning even more on a flame staff just is kinda worth

[fresh reef]

the insanity has come back full force

[radiant frigate]

peak lmbcore

[fallow falcon]

Fucking I mixed up Voidstrike and Voidblast

Why did they rename this shit

[radiant frigate]

:)

[fallow falcon]

Also why do I have excess mastery points here?

[radiant frigate]

fatshark moment

[serene stream]

oh fuck, you too? I thought I was the only one, and it's on THAT Staff, Too!

[steel flame]

is it just me or does it feel psykers had its toughness damage reduction broken

there are no patch nots on it but im taking immensly more damage now than i did before the update

[fringe garden]

just dont get hit

[steel flame]

even with 70% toughness damage reduction

[radiant frigate]

how do you even get to 70%

[steel flame]

20 from scriers, 33 from peril toughness perk

and the last 20 or so from nodes

[radiant frigate]

i am pretty sure different sources do not stack additively

[steel flame]

didnt say they did

[radiant frigate]

implied though, since you said 70% tdr

[steel flame]

point is i dont think any of them are working

I don't know. I did it twice. I'm still upset.

[strong gulch]

me too. I hate that dot.

[steel flame]

really wish they handnt screwed with 2 years of name recognition XP

so hard to figure out what staff is what at a glance

[radiant frigate]

it definitely works

[strong gulch]

Feels like I'm taking more damage, but thought it was a combo of mettle nerf, me playing worse, and the mobian cute outfit special condition.

[steel flame]

i thought i was goin crazy about taking way more damage till a friend also brought up psyker feeling alot more squishy

dam you right

the most noticble was fire trauma

[fallow falcon]

My sticker book is now complete

[steel flame]

so its only getting 5% per crit instead of the full bar for critting 30 enemies

ugh

[strong gulch]

Mettle could carry fire trauma hard. Now it's so little.

[steel flame]

i guess its only worth it for fast fire rate and not aoe

sadge

rest in piece mettle

[strong gulch]

Yeah. Still fills the toughness bar on purg.

[steel flame]

well greate

happy they arent showing favortism

[chrome sphinx]

one of the psyker nodes talks about overcharging

wtf is that

[steel flame]

which one?

[radiant frigate]

it's when you get a little too spicy and fucking explode

[leaden thunder]

psyker splooge

[vast hare]

Are there any good builds that use the staff left click and aren't a macro exploit?

I've been trying a crit based scriers/DD thing but it just ain't workin

even with voidstrike I can't quite get my DD targets consistently

[steel flame]

i mean, you can do quell cancel m1 without a macro, its not that hard

[strong gulch]

For sure RIP. Old fire trauma needs soulstealer now. I am trying one with souldrinker instead tho.

[fallow falcon]

Alright, what do I want on voidstrike here? Also fuck rounding errors

[steel flame]

curious, why vampire instead of reborn?

[patent steeple]

change sprint efficiency to Flak damage, and Terrifying barrage to Nexus

[vast hare]

Does Surge work with the scondary? Or is it just the primary?

[steel flame]

only primary

[strong gulch]

Consistency. That's it. Both have their merits.

[steel flame]

except with voidstaff

[pine mountain]

Is psyker the hardest class to play ?

[steel flame]

fuck i cant just call it void

fuck everything is void

fuck

fuck you for changing the names

fuck

[sturdy tendon]

Voidblast, gotcha

[steel flame]

fuck

[strong gulch]

Get good with word retrieval and memory or get fecked.

[pine mountain]

I played a couple games, it feels kinda weak, it takes a long time to pop heads and then u have to recharge your spells

[strong gulch]

It's me. I'm fecked.

[sturdy tendon]

Voidstrike is the only unchanged one

[sturdy tendon]

Psyker is really rough early levels

[steel flame]

voidstrike is the only one that gets surge on its m2s cause its a projectile

[sturdy tendon]

Brain Burst is also a pretty meh blitz for low difficulty missions

[pine mountain]

I'll look into some tips on how to play, I should use my pop heads spell for special enemies

[strong gulch]

The only secondary that surge blessing works with is on voidstrike.

[pine mountain]

Are there any good builds you guys are using ? Especially for early levels

[sturdy tendon]

Mostly snipers, gunners and crushers are what I typically kill with it

[steel flame]

from a mechanical standpoint, yes, from a resource management standpoint kinda since you dont have ammo for powers

psyker has lots of weird mechanics that arent point and shoot

[strong gulch]

While leveling, assail is your friend.

[sturdy tendon]

Oh yeah, Assail is the best blitz for lower difficulties

Heck, none EP smite can actually kill stuff in Sedition

[strong gulch]

Assail is good for most things except cara (crushers) and unyielding (bosses, bulwarks, and reapers).

but you can take other tools for those

[pure junco]

how are the new right side melee talents?

[steel flame]

situational

but in the right build they are excellent

[pure junco]

got it thanks <3

[radiant frigate]

i would like to point out that this lmb surge thing can facetank a chaos spawn if you keep shooting and quelling

partly due to mettle

[slender coyote]

veteran chat scares me

get me back to safety

[radiant frigate]

take shelter, sibling

[bleak maple]

I need me someone to explain Channeled force and Empyric shock cause my brain is sufficiently exploded from the warp

[radiant frigate]

channeled force = charged staff cast improves little bolts
empyric shock = little bolts make the target take more warp damage

[bleak maple]

Are these remotely good?

[strong gulch]

Was it confirmed if those work with purg or not. Iirc, they don't. I want to make sure tho.

[radiant frigate]

i can see them working if you want to use surge for boss damage
