psyker-class

[pine sail]

I think ER EP Smite is the build I normally play, assuming EP is Psionics

I love it

[dusk void]

You mean Empowered Psionics, right?

[pine sail]

Yeah I just hit lvl 30 recently, this is my build I've been using, it's really fun

Battle Meditation is funny when it keeps reseting Peril during Smite, and I took the Empyric Shock to cause more Smite damage when it first comes out

[nocturne dust]

I am judging you immensely.

[pine sail]

Well I am new (50 hours played) and I can see how my build is probably not optimal, but I still love it

[nocturne dust]

You do you. I'll still judge you.

because I'm old and stuck in my ways and demand everyone bends for me.

[pine sail]

When I see ranged units I run at them with my warp shield out

No need for brain burst lol

[dusk void]

Questionable statement there

[split lance]

Any rending trauma chads in chat

[dusk void]

Used to be, why?

[nocturne dust]

https://tenor.com/view/hd-smirk-gif-7206957141966421326

[split lance]

Thinking of trying it again

[split lance]

I’ll bend you lil bro

[nocturne dust]

that's how you get the snack crackle pop of my spine

[split lance]

In other words “blowing it out”

[dusk void]

You have this staff with these optimal blessings and perks?

[split lance]

Ye

Ofc

[nocturne dust]

https://tenor.com/view/phasmophobia-walking-broken-back-gif-27454833

[split lance]

Perks are flak and carapace?

[pine sail]

Is rending the same thing as brittleness?

[split lance]

[nocturne dust]

yes but no

[dusk void]

Yes

[nocturne dust]

Rending is a buff, brittleness is a debuff

and iirc there are 2 types of brittleness that calculate differently

[split lance]

If you tap on the emoji does it tell you what server it’s from

[nocturne dust]

but they have largely the same effect, helping against armor

[split lance]

I can’t figure it out on mobile

[dusk void]

Unaviable to me

[split lance]

I see

Ty

[potent echo]

[pine sail]

I will try Lasgun sometime, for some reason the Emporer keeps giving them to me so I'll take it as a sign

[waxen jackal]

Is blaze trauma annoying for teammates?

[strong gulch]

It can be. That all traumas.

[runic kiln]

this alone has saved my team more times than i can count lmao, everyone runs out of ammo and psyker still there just blitzing mixed hordes like its a tuesday

[strong gulch]

Thought my hat was fuzzy for a moment. lol

[waxen jackal]

It seems like it would be annoying

[restive slate]

Psyker in general is annoying

But that's how I like it

[dusk void]

You literally are killing hordes and elites/specials just from the trauma staff and soulblaze. I top the scoreboard in kills and damage due to it

[pine sail]

What is the build for "blaze trauma" ?

[waxen jackal]

I meant more visually annoying

[dusk void]

There are variations of it. I mainly use this.

[restive slate]

Rather be visually annoyed than losing and annoyed

[runic kiln]

Lads, i assume this applies to everything and not just melee, correct?

[mossy oyster]

yes

[pine sail]

Does warp splitting do anything for fire staff? I assume no

[runic kiln]

https://tenor.com/view/doom-slayer-reload-gun-gif-19444267

[waxen jackal]

Real

[strong gulch]

On classes that are heavily melee and get their toughness from melee, it can be annoying or actively detrimental. Because thing are with getting blown up that they are trying to hit or enemies are getting knocked out of position. It's especially bad when ranged is actively firing at them and a trauma user blasts the melee enemies around the zealot or ogryn.

In addition to spreading out enemies, trauma can also knock enemies over which causes it to be difficult to move, know what's alive vs dead, and put enemies behind players.

[dusk void]

Not really. it's on the other end of the talent tree (mainly for gun psykers). The good stuff is mainly on the left side of the talent tree

[waxen jackal]

That's what I was thinking. It's messing up their sight and moving the enemies around a bunch. But I like it, so that rough for them lol

If they say something I'll try to adjust my play style for the match tho

[runic kiln]

imo it can be a pain in the ass but i play very selflessly, let your team have fun smashing out their melee / shotgun etc stuff when they want to, then sweep in with staff use / etc. Less efficient technically but they have more fun so its worth

[restive slate]

That's why I blast the enemy backlines

[strong gulch]

Yeah. You can blast behind them with fire trauma and still light things on fire, or blast the back end of the horde. Blasting the back can kill that part of the horde, more on fire, and toss enemies towards the from of the horde thereby condensing it and placing it on front of your melee frontliners.

When your teammates are meleeing a boss, you can blast the monster and your team to keep them safe from a horde and help a wee bit with damage.

[waxen jackal]

I try to play nicely too. I apologize when I do things wrong, back off if someone has almost killed something. That's why I kinda feel bad. But no one has actually said anything yet. I just know I would think it's annoying

[restive slate]

Trauma aoe is deceptively larger than visually indicated too

Also I like to use the Trauma aiming to light the way in Lights Out

[waxen jackal]

Jeez we had 7 crushers, a chaos spawn and a DH. All withing 1 minute of each other

[restive slate]

You're already nicer than 80% of the community

[strong gulch]

Another thing is also letting your team play the game. If it turns out that your team is can handle melee elites, you don't have to knock everything over. Besides, there's buffs and whatnot that only activate on dodge. But this is more so getting into semantics than not.

[pure junco]

just got a decent heavy sword, how are they for psyker?

[waxen jackal]

Lol people I play with are typically nice enough. I've had a few dickheads tho

[quasi lynx]

is assail alright for leveling?

[restive slate]

Yea just don't blow up or forget to melee

[eternal junco]

Yes just treat it as an occasional powerful tool instead of your main weapon

[waxen jackal]

I blow up a lot less when I'm not using SG. I was always thinking my timer still had time on it, or wasn't paying attention

[split lance]

@lethal lagoon @strong gulch y’all down

For some

Gaming

[lethal lagoon]

Nein, I got stuff to do. I might @ ya in 2-3 hours if you are around.

[split lance]

I will be

@wind spruce

I forgot to @ you too

[dusk void]

Just use a dueling sword instead

[split lance]

I Promise to not miss a DH fight

[pure junco]

ill pass lol

[split lance]

dw

i didnt @ you for a reason

[dusk void]

Hold on. May I see that heavy sword of yours?

[pure junco]

whatre you an inquisitor

[dusk void]

Just curious

[split lance]

bois whats proper qY TO PURG

[split lance]

i keep fucking it up it feels

[dusk void]

That is actually quite decent

[strong gulch]

I can play in 15 minutes.

[pure junco]

yeah, im just wondering what the use case is

[split lance]

bet just @ me

[pure junco]

cause as far as i can tell heavy sword is new to psyker

[split lance]

WAIT

KINETIC FLAYER HAS BEEN FIXE

FIXED

[dusk void]

And so is the chainaxe and the combat shotgun

[mossy oyster]

(it hasnt)

apparently the code to target elites/specials/monstros is in kinetic flayer

but it doesnt work

unless they fixed it

[split lance]

patched today

[mossy oyster]

nice

[waxen jackal]

The said they did in the hotfix today

[mossy oyster]

kinetic flayer value increase by 5

[split lance]

KF is a VERY good pick

[strong gulch]

Yes but also heard that it doesn't proc on those assassination type bosses. Haven't confirmed that tho.

[waxen jackal]

I totally forgot about those bosses. I don't think I've ever beat them. I might try again.

[split lance]

ds4

or knife

duelling sword 4

carapace and unyelding my go to perks

i could be wrong but with SG it is

sciers gaze

surge staff is goated

too

esp with smite

[strong gulch]

Illisi is good for horde and deimos is good for single target. Deimos is also good forbosses, but all of the damage is packed in the heavy 2.

[waxen jackal]

So with kinetic flayer, does it give a 10% chance to instakill, or just do more damage to elites?

[split lance]

since trauma itself is so good at cc id swap it if ur smiting

[strong gulch]

A chance to BB. If that bonus BB kills that thing or not is dependent on how much HP the thing has.

[wind spruce]

You're dead to me

[waxen jackal]

So before it just wouldnt work on elites? Like the brain rupture wouldn't do anything?

[split lance]

ill show you my feet

[strong gulch]

also any buffs that apply to bb

[split lance]

it would work on anyone

its supposed to be only elites

[wind spruce]

Forgiven

[potent echo]

Heavy sword is nice when paired with bolter

[split lance]

gwt on

[potent echo]

Too bad psyker doesn't get bolter

[wind spruce]

Will soon

[split lance]

bet

[wind spruce]

Probably just for a game or two

[waxen jackal]

So it's supposed to pick the elite out of the crowd and brain burst then specifically?

[restive slate]

Bolt Pistol nice tho

[split lance]

pretty much

[potent echo]

True but less dakka

[wind spruce]

What you running on heavy sword

[waxen jackal]

Electrokenetic is surge

Idk the exact name

[strong gulch]

It used to be able to proc on anything, but the recent tweak to was to only proc on elites, specials, and monsters/ bosses. It wasn't working like that until today.

@split lance I'm ready for games.

@wind spruce you joining us?

[split lance]

im in vc 69

[restive slate]

Is it weird that I see it as a buff? I feel I proccing on small guys are a waste

[kindred edge]

I think it's intended to be a buff

[wind spruce]

Start a game I'll be another 15 or so probably

[broken carbon]

it’s a buff

[waxen jackal]

If i wanted to use a chainsword for fun, would mobility be the dump?

[strong gulch]

It doesn't anymore.

[restive slate]

Nice

[broken carbon]

yes

[nocturne dust]

more

[nocturne dust]

si senor

[restive slate]

Other than duelling sword, what melee is a good pair for gun psyker?

[nocturne dust]

illisi for hordes

deimos for singles

[restive slate]

Wanted to try the zappy stick

[nocturne dust]

I mean, you can probably make it work

[waxen jackal]

And from what I remember for zealot, the mk XIII was the better sword. Is that still the case?

With shred, rampage probably, or bloodletter?

[nocturne dust]

the one with the g at the end is better iirc

[waxen jackal]

I wish the heavy chainsword was on psyker

[nocturne dust]

so do I

[waxen jackal]

That's probably my favorite melee weapon over all

[runic kiln]

yeah new as of this new itemization update. i dont mind it, works as a general melee weapon while you specialise your other stuff, i enjoy it with brainburst and then void/flame staff, lets me cover all my bases

[nocturne dust]

My favorite melee weapon remains Kruber's warhammer

[restive slate]

What about Saltzpyres Greathammer

[waxen jackal]

I still haven't tried the hammers yet. I meant to after the got reworked, but I got invested in psyker

[runic kiln]

something you can use fine by itself and ideally not a force sword lmao. i love sabre/knife/chain sword depending on what i feel like running. also i really like the fast axes with the bonus crit chance from scriers when shit gets super hairy

[nocturne dust]

eh, nah

[restive slate]

Sorry, was referring to Vermintide

[nocturne dust]

I like the dual weps on saltz

[nocturne dust]

Yeah I was talking about Vermintide

[waxen jackal]

Oh yeah I know. It just made me think of the thunderhammers

[nocturne dust]

I mean one of the thunderhammers is... kind of close.

I hate charge-ups tho.

[restive slate]

I just realised something, can Psykers Cleave talent improve the Tac Axe??

[waxen jackal]

I wish vermintide was more alive on console

[nocturne dust]

I don't want to press a special button and time things precisely, I want to bonk bonk

[runic kiln]

probably i havnt tested it yet. i just really like the tac axe. fits my brain and all functions running at 200% speed playstyle that i like

[waxen jackal]

I didn't even know you had to do that. I've never used them in this game. I might try it out on my zealot

[restive slate]

Ah the simpler times, it's also why I grew out of the Powersword

[runic kiln]

powersword is cool af. but man its so bad outside of the powered hits. atleast thammer is usable

[charred pawn]

Holy fucking psyker skill tree wtf, haven't played em since launch

someone give me a brain pop build

[nocturne dust]

Probably why I prefer even ds4 and deimos over illisi for horde clear

[nocturne dust]

Aight, here's a brain pop build: don't.

[frozen loom]

someone give this man the blaze flayer

[charred pawn]

Oh come on man

is it really that bad

[nocturne dust]

I mean

[restive slate]

Use a gun

[nocturne dust]

You can make it work but... wouldn't recommend

[runic kiln]

brain pop. Middle skill for dual shields and fast brainpops. then bottom middle for chaining brainpops. use void or fire staff for crowd control then whatever melee you want to fill

[charred pawn]

So it really is that ass

[nocturne dust]

yep

[restive slate]

I wanna try Psyker with Dualbarrel Shotgun, would fit his cowboy aesthetic

[nocturne dust]

brain burst is the worst blitz by a pretty gap

[runic kiln]

nah its fine for picking heavies / specials. people are meta pilled 😛 anything works when you have the pizazz

[late sapphire]

not exe sword

Opinion on coghammer?

[charred pawn]

Well yea thats most of this game though

[nocturne dust]

I tried it out and prefer the cc

[restive slate]

For the Lady!

[late sapphire]

But the schwing

[nocturne dust]

Good bonk bonk. Much bonk.

[nocturne dust]

but bonk

[late sapphire]

coghammer then

bonk and schwing

[restive slate]

Iirc the Imperial Navy Breachers have a JackAxe of some kind to break down barricades

[atomic swan]

imo yes but no
The cleave damage is still awful

[nocturne dust]

as brain bursty as you will get I think

you deploy shields to speed up your BB

Again though, would not recommend

[restive slate]

Need more 2 handed weapons

[nocturne dust]

Force Hammer

[restive slate]

Perhaps the Combat Axe with Bromentum then?

[restive slate]

Nemesis Halberd lol

[charred pawn]

Thats makes me so sad brain pop is ass

[atomic swan]

Bromentum iself is good enough to do the job

[charred pawn]

I mean it makes sense, super slow, all specials die in 1 shot to the head anyways, but still

it used to be a fun ability when everything wasn't an instant gib

[nocturne dust]

I hear it with the kinetic flayer option works alright for fire trauma

because it procs perilous combustion

[atomic swan]

But i want to say that you dont have to use cleave effect

Cleave Assail is kinda fun

[restive slate]

Elaborate

Ahh

[nocturne dust]

warp splitting works on ranged

including assail

[atomic swan]

yes

Cleave IAG

[rancid geyser]

warp splitting assail with inferno staff is fun

needles for the dudes i cant burn yet

[restive slate]

Does it benefit shotguns?

[nocturne dust]

kinda crack ngl

warp splitting does nothing for infinite cleave 😔

[atomic swan]

Everything that have cleave value

[nocturne dust]

yes

[rancid geyser]

yeah started liking assail more and more because inferno really lacks ranged options

and BB kinda wasnt it for when there are a bunch of gunners

[nocturne dust]

burn harder, smh my head

[atomic swan]

Doesnt work on the attack cant cleave
(staff left click)
or cleave doesnt matter(flamer)

[restive slate]

Gotta test more

[nocturne dust]

smite/bb, trauma, surge all don't benefit from warpsplitting (excluding staff lmb which does)

[nocturne dust]

It does work on staff lmb

You just need near 100% peril because staff lmb's cleave is crap

[atomic swan]

what
i cant do shit on poxwalker

[nocturne dust]

Need higher peril

[rancid geyser]

don't most attacks have a cleave value?

even if not at 1

[atomic swan]

100 already

[nocturne dust]

🤔

It definitely can benefit staff lmb tho, I tested it earlier... unless the hotfix changed that.

[flint spear]

you are going to do 650 per headshot on your lmb

dont need cleave anyway

[charred pawn]

this shit is ass

I'm mid match still and its dookie

[nocturne dust]

the horde coming at you laughing as you take them out one by one

[nocturne dust]

F

[restive slate]

Also I heard there's a new staff lmb only build?

[nocturne dust]

Yes

Surge surge

[restive slate]

How's that work?

[nocturne dust]

Put surge (blessing) on surge (staff, renamed to electrokinetic)

[flint spear]

trust me it will be more than enough coz you will be having the suppression

[nocturne dust]

spam lmb

profit

[flint spear]

they will just stand there

[nocturne dust]

it really won't be

lmb cannot horde clear

[rancid geyser]

you can just swipe your crosshair tohit 2 dudes

XD

[restive slate]

Wait...

Surge Staff never had Surge blessing before right?

[rancid geyser]

basically cleave

[nocturne dust]

They added it last update when they changed its name

[flint spear]

if you are not horde clearing with your lmb then you are not clicking hard enough

[restive slate]

That's amazing

[flint spear]

literally no hard enough

[nocturne dust]

surge the blessing doesn't work on rmb

just FYI

[rancid geyser]

careful ppl think surge cant clear hordes

[nocturne dust]

except for voidstrike

because voidstrike

[nocturne dust]

Bro, begone with your nonsense

[restive slate]

It's fine, now dealing with shooters and Snipers will be a breeze

[rancid geyser]

hehehe

i jest

a bit

[nocturne dust]

not really, at least not anymore than normal

surge only procs on crits so you'll have to spam it at shooters/snipers regardless

[rancid geyser]

that double ball to a sniper dome be feeling just right ngl

[nocturne dust]

I too like double balls to heads

but y'know

voidstrike balls

https://tenor.com/view/this-is-us-bowling-bowling-ball-gif-19162117

[restive slate]

When they die but the second one knocks them even further back

[flint spear]

ah yes the budget plasma ball

[nocturne dust]

Bowling ball > golf ball

[rancid geyser]

golf ball go brr tho

[restive slate]

Which has a more SMACK sound

[nocturne dust]

so does recon

[rancid geyser]

not using recon on anyone but vet, and on vet i have columnus

sorry

[strong gulch]

creepies stacked on each other

[nocturne dust]

https://tenor.com/view/weakness-disgusts-me-madara-uchiha-madara-naruto-weakness-disgust-me-gif-17219305

[rancid geyser]

spent 700k on a recon

just for it to be not close to columnus

[nocturne dust]

cyberpunk 40770

[zinc phoenix]

It lights things on fire what more do you want

[rancid geyser]

you know whats better than burning?

[nocturne dust]

it's really not that bad

[zinc phoenix]

Nothing

[nocturne dust]

well there's your problem

[rancid geyser]

obliterating

[nocturne dust]

burn build is better on psyker who gets crits for days

not vet

[zinc phoenix]

It’s too bad it isn’t soul blaze instead of fire for psyker

Then it’d combo real nice with souldrinker

[nocturne dust]

soul blaze recon would be lit. Literally.

[frozen loom]

warp gun

[agile mural]

Does the 10+ rend passive even do anything? It feels like it dont work

[nocturne dust]

Force Lasgun

[atomic swan]

I cast gun

[zinc phoenix]

Listen if I can shoot fire from a stick I don’t see why I can’t shoot fire through a gun

[pure junco]

whats the blessing meta for purgatus staves now

[agile mural]

Whats purgatus

[rancid geyser]

but!

[zinc phoenix]

🍔 atus

[flint spear]

blaze away nexus

[pure junco]

howre the new ones?

[zinc phoenix]

Pairs oddly well with new and improved kinetic flayer btw

[charred pawn]

Yea. Brain burst is rough. Its so slow that the vet was literally killing 90% of things faster then I could pop

it felt nice whenever we had a gaggle of crushers but

[zinc phoenix]

Pre charge it to instant kill things when they come around corners

It’s for butchering specialists

[flint spear]

bb as a pointer for your teammate

[charred pawn]

Thats pretty much what I was doing but I could see why just general stun is way better

[zinc phoenix]

I do this on lights out 😂

[rancid geyser]

KR + EP?

probably still not fast enough actually

[agile mural]

Pretty sure u can kill a crusher faster with lmb mini gun staff then brain burst

[zinc phoenix]

It’s really only for specialists

Like counter sniping the impossibly far away sniper

Or instagibbing a dog

[rancid geyser]

see clip above

yeah XD

[nocturne dust]

hot take but no

purgatus doesn't work with KF all that much

[rancid geyser]

kinetic flayer is still cope

that 15 seconds is NOT worth

unless you have no more damage you can reach

[ornate hamlet]

moodsies

[rancid geyser]

then maybe

[nocturne dust]

It works on fire trauma because you're dealing with low fire stacks anyway and want to proc PC

[atomic swan]

Psyker can play with no blitz easily
and sometimes have BB for sniping is nice

I know this opinion is really sad

[nocturne dust]

but on purg, it triggers too early and ends up being wasted as you're burning them away anyway

[glad meadow]

how do you horde clear using void strike

[zinc phoenix]

Try it, it’s surprisingly good feeling

[glad meadow]

charge balls or rat tat tat the tap fire

[nocturne dust]

line em up to knock em down

[rancid geyser]

if they were going to make it 10% they shouldnt have put a cd on it but make it only work on warp attacks or something like that

[nocturne dust]

charge balls

[glad meadow]

btw, does the void strike have cleave?

[nocturne dust]

I did. Multiple times. It feels good, but it ain't.

[zinc phoenix]

It would be ludicrously busted without it cooldown

[nocturne dust]

Yes. Warp splitting benefits it.

[glad meadow]

but by how much though

[nocturne dust]

On purg, yeah

[glad meadow]

100% more cleave is probably better on something that already have some cleave

[rancid geyser]

could only proc once per entity aside from monsters

would be nice still

[zinc phoenix]

10% with something like 🍔atus on auric mael with no cooldown you could probably solo

[nocturne dust]

rmb has a lot of cleave, voidstrike is literally the best staff for warp splitting

[pure junco]

so what blitz pairs best with purgatus then?

[nocturne dust]

BB

sadly

[pure junco]

cause i have been using KF BB

[rancid geyser]

ASSAIL

[pure junco]

oh

[split lance]

BB with KF goes HARD

[rancid geyser]

im jacking assails

[pure junco]

problem with assails is the nodes it accesses

if im going flame i want those flame nodes

[nocturne dust]

KF sucks still and doesn't really benefit purgatus but BB is still on the route purg wants to take and handles purgatus' weak points, even if pretty poorly

[rancid geyser]

contrary to popular belief i feel like the fire nodes are better on non fire staves

[split lance]

Wrong

[rancid geyser]

that want to use warp siphon

[nocturne dust]

no u

[split lance]

[pure junco]

contrary to ur opinion i like fire

[split lance]

KF on surge too

Heavenly

[nocturne dust]

You can be wrong

[rancid geyser]

aye liking fire is cool but you are already spitting flames 😦

[nocturne dust]

Remember kids, how something feels is very different from what the numbers actually say.

[agile mural]

Warpblast staff do like fire nodes

[rancid geyser]

i play in auric and its only a 60k damage diff without wildfire

[nocturne dust]

[split lance]

one day ill play a game and not have the best stats

[rancid geyser]

idk i dont value 60k from wildfire over just being able to ram needles into enemies

[split lance]

ill lyk when that game happens

[rancid geyser]

unless im on surge staff

[nocturne dust]

uh huh hotshot

[pure junco]

is souldrinker worth trying to free up three points for? im guessing no

[nocturne dust]

no

[split lance]

Im sorry

but ur a nerd

[zinc phoenix]

You’re both nerds 🤓

[rancid geyser]

YES IT IS

[nocturne dust]

https://tenor.com/view/always-has-been-meme-astronaut-gif-23926290

[rancid geyser]

IT ALLOWS YOU TO BE BRAIN DEAD

[pure junco]

every single person in this discord is a nerd HELLO

[nocturne dust]

it's 3 whole points

for 5% crit and toughness you don't need

You're melting everything in front of you anyway

[flint spear]

and it doesnt even work as intended

[pure junco]

its a cool fantasy its just

i really dont take damage anyways

[rancid geyser]

its attack speed toughness gen and crit

[pure junco]

moving three points around is tough when i want warp rider and kinetic deflection

[rancid geyser]

i cant see how its not worth when you get to stack toughness gen and be dumb

[nocturne dust]

melee attack speed on the staff that replaces melee 💀

[rancid geyser]

and still get of scotch free

[rancid geyser]

brother you never know if you might have to pull out the pokey stick

[flint spear]

gaze

[split lance]

surge ?

[nocturne dust]

I don't see how it let you be brain dead and why are you using gaze

[pure junco]

wdym surge

[zinc phoenix]

On 🍔? I do actually know 😂

[split lance]

WHICH STAFF

of caps

[pure junco]

oh, purgatus

[zinc phoenix]

Zero percent chance I will pull the sword for anything other than a crusher for that good good head pokin

[rancid geyser]

im using fire staff on an assail build there was testing something earlier cause someone wanted an idea

[nocturne dust]

I only pull out the pokey for mutants, crushers, and bosses. Souldrinker in no way helps those situations.

[rancid geyser]

still jacking that inferno pairs nice with assails tho

[rancid geyser]

but the attack speed does

[zinc phoenix]

Fire hand wave stagger on left click is literally the same as melee

[nocturne dust]

Not really

[rancid geyser]

debby downer 😦

[nocturne dust]

ds4 actually is one of the worst weapons for attack speed buffs since it already has such a high attack speed

[analog agate]

Unless you are skirting along the ride side already… then no.

[pure junco]

yeah thats what i figured

[nocturne dust]

and idk why'd you take illisi with purgatus. Deimos is... a take I guess.

[zinc phoenix]

Souldrinker is clearly them trying to make fire illsi a thing

[pure junco]

i take deimos if i get jumped by fourteen dudes with AKs

otherwise im just spitting fire

[rancid geyser]

lmao im not taking a fire sword again it was just a test showing how tanky you get to be even with ER from earlier

[nocturne dust]

I was born in the meta. Molded by it. I didn't see the fun until I was already a man, and by then I found it nothing but DISTRACTING

• Sincerely, Meta Munchkin

[analog agate]

Stop trying to make fetch happen

[rancid geyser]

i was telling ppl earlier that you have so much toughness gen that ER doesnt warrent ignoring toughness curios

it does attribute to being tank especially when you fuck up

[zinc phoenix]

Ironic

[nocturne dust]

That wasn't about you, that was about the general build and attack speed benefits

[pure junco]

im ngl i had fun with fire illisi

[nocturne dust]

Illisi benefits more from attack speed but still it's eh.

[pure junco]

but as soon as i swapped it out i noticed massive damage improvements

[rancid geyser]

ooheew youtake deimos with purg?

[nocturne dust]

Yeh fire illisi only procs if it doesn't kill, which is bad

[nocturne dust]

no?

[pure junco]

yeah, i do

[nocturne dust]

oh

[pure junco]

why not? i only need a melee for the block

[zinc phoenix]

Deimos with 🍔 is valid imo

[nocturne dust]

Deimos is valid.

I prefer stabby stick.

[analog agate]

Deimos is the back up when ds iv gets nerfed

[zinc phoenix]

Deimos has a good poke and deflector is 👌 perfection

[rancid geyser]

what do yall do when beefy boys roll in?

[pure junco]

hide behind a vet

[rancid geyser]

LMAO

[nocturne dust]

They betta buff deimos and make it have deflector built in

[zinc phoenix]

🔥 🌬️ 🔥

[nocturne dust]

knock them down

[rancid geyser]

cant deny you that remark

[nocturne dust]

Trauma does that

[rancid geyser]

actually funny

[nocturne dust]

smite does that

voidstrike does that

surge stuns, so kinda same thing

[rancid geyser]

but i thought we were talking about purgatus

[pure junco]

same thing i do to everything else in the game

[rancid geyser]

purg+deimos seems like a slight recipie for disaster

[pure junco]

spam left click

[nocturne dust]

Oh, I mean even ogryns burn to death against blaze away

[pure junco]

maybe hold right if im feeling groovy

[nocturne dust]

only crushers are a problem

[zinc phoenix]

Literally just fire, shriek, more fire and they die

[rancid geyser]

crushers would like to disagree

[nocturne dust]

and deimos can knock them down

[nocturne dust]

#psyker-class message

[pure junco]

honestly even crushers are not that bad

[zinc phoenix]

If a crusher is on top of you deimos special poke can get it done

[nocturne dust]

ew no

no special

h2

h2 is deimos

[rancid geyser]

i guess knocking them down IS a solution

[nocturne dust]

deimos is h2

[zinc phoenix]

yes special

[nocturne dust]

that's not...

[pure junco]

anyways thanks for the advice yall

preesh 💜

[rancid geyser]

2 heavies to the head knocks them down

[zinc phoenix]

If the sword don’t glow I don’t go

[rancid geyser]

or just h2 i should say

[nocturne dust]

really just the 1 heavy

h1 is the child that gets left in the corner while people use l1

[rancid geyser]

why doesnt fire sword have psword cancles

i would love them so much more

[zinc phoenix]

Why don’t more swords have parry 😢

[rancid geyser]

yuck

a PARRY in the game where i love to shoot

disgusting

[zinc phoenix]

Parrying a pack of ragers to death 👌

[rancid geyser]

care not to block with your face

respect tho

Powers up in a corner and scream when i get touched by 1 rager on vet

[nocturne dust]

rager resistance when

[rancid geyser]

we got that already

they dont magnetize to use anymore and we can stun them in attacks

[nocturne dust]

maybe before their buff

[rancid geyser]

used to be the most detested enemy

i mean i can still run from them

[nocturne dust]

but they magnetize pretty hard after that buff

[rancid geyser]

until i hit a wall

[sweet beacon]

you mean nerf

[nocturne dust]

It's not as bad, but like, dang man

[sweet beacon]

they don't magnetize anymore and attack faster

you literally couldn't dodge them with a low mobility weapon before

[rancid geyser]

yeah moving any direction but left or right of a rager is just begging for disaster

[nocturne dust]

I mean yes

[rancid geyser]

well you could

had to circle them

then get hit by the ones you didnt circle

[split lance]

ima touch you lil bro

[nocturne dust]

but the attack speed came after, no? I at least remember it that way

[rancid geyser]

attack speed came WAY after they nerfed them

[analog agate]

Yeah, attack speed came… summer update?

Was it the penance overhaul? I think

[sweet beacon]

i mean yeah you could block+dodge

now you can just ignore them

[nocturne dust]

I liked when you could actually deal with ragers in melee outside of stunning them 😔

[rancid geyser]

until you hit a wall

then back to screaming

[rancid geyser]

my power sword stays on

[sweet beacon]

you can deal with ragers now much better than you could before the nerf=buff

[rancid geyser]

and if i dont got one im shooting golf balls

[sweet beacon]

you get iframes by circling them

i guess without stuns shock mauls struggle?

[rancid geyser]

i think you still get away from them somewhat if you dodge slide no?

[nocturne dust]

I mean getting away from them isn't the problem

[waxen jackal]

I thought voidstrike/illisi was like peak psyker gaming, but I really fuck with blazing trauma/DS combo

[rancid geyser]

this

[nocturne dust]

Trauma over voidstrike? Heresy

Burn them

[analog agate]

It is the meta staff build haha

[rancid geyser]

blazing trauma/DS combo is the only purg combo

will fight anyone on this

[waxen jackal]

I was just getting tired of voidstrike

[waxen jackal]

Makes sense cuz it's fire

[nocturne dust]

Mad talk for someone in sliding distance

[waxen jackal]

Pun intended

[nocturne dust]

(They're wrong, the current meta staff is electro)

[rancid geyser]

hehehe

LMB!

[nocturne dust]

well no

not unless you quell cancel

[waxen jackal]

Do y'all get a news letter about the current meta? Lol jk

[nocturne dust]

RMB spam is good, unsurprisingly

[waxen jackal]

Cuz I never seem to know it

[rancid geyser]

i used it all up until i tried LMB

idk i just think clicking heads is better hehe

[nocturne dust]

🤷‍♂️

[rancid geyser]

both do about the same damage in my runs

[waxen jackal]

When is quell cancelling? Someone was telling me about it earlier

[nocturne dust]

I mean you can, but RMB spam does the most damage before quell cancelling

which is why I say it's meta

[rancid geyser]

i just cant deal with crushers well when im on RMB for some reason without swapping to melee

[waxen jackal]

And what is RMB?

[nocturne dust]

because it consistently outdamages everything else

[nocturne dust]

the secondary attack/right mouse button attack

aka the charge on staves

[nocturne dust]

....but you stun them?

[rancid geyser]

its this lame thing that us cancle nerds like to do to speed up animations -- it fucking hurts after a while tho

[waxen jackal]

Ohh okay. I didn't know that was what it was called

[analog agate]

How the heck is electro staff the meta staff

[flint spear]

it's always the surge lmb r cancel/ rmb q swap

[nocturne dust]

Empyric Resolve amped it hard

[analog agate]

Especially with warp flurry bugged

[nocturne dust]

You only want to do full casts with electro mainly, and warp flurry is only problematic for half casts

[analog agate]

That just isn’t true. You can do half casts for a ton of things

All shooters

[nocturne dust]

You can doesn't mean you should

because of how surge chains

[nocturne dust]

also

when flurry gets fixed for surge (if ever), it will be better

[rancid geyser]

you also basically kill anything that isnt a mauler, crusher or bulwark in basically 1 second with lmb no cancles required

[analog agate]

Anyways. My question still stands. In no way is electro staff better than blaze blast

[restive slate]

How does that work? Just less peril generated?

[nocturne dust]

begone with your lmb spam

[analog agate]

And I love the electro staff

[rancid geyser]

BUT!

[nocturne dust]

Yep, electro has a lot of trouble with peril in comparison to say purgatus or voidstrike

so empyric resolve helped it a lot more

[waxen jackal]

I wish they could add attacking enemies in the meat grinder in the base game

[split lance]

more dmg to elites

[rancid geyser]

@plucky flax can vouch for RMB i think

[split lance]

just whipes them off the map

[wind spruce]

pretty insane damage vs that mauler

[split lance]

makes em jsut not exist

[restive slate]

You could mod if you want

[rancid geyser]

but its is really easy to use and pretty much slaps entire map to hell

[nocturne dust]

I mean electro alone no, but the full build is electro + shriek, and shriek is still shriek

[waxen jackal]

Console 😭

[nocturne dust]

Electro handles perfectly what shriek does not

[rancid geyser]

very ''interactive'' gameplay

[split lance]

if you wanna talk about CC yeah ofc but against a horde of elites im taking surge over purg everyday

[flint spear]

literally IAG dps

[summer prairie]

surge has a good synergy with psykinetic and pc

[rancid geyser]

^

[wind spruce]

not really any less so than most ranged weapons tbf

[analog agate]

Shriek is still shriek on blast too… I love electro staff. And it slaps hard, especially with swap canceling. But in no way is it better than blaze. Cool, you showed me you taking out a crusher in the grinder. That ain’t the real game

[split lance]

not only are you going to stun the elites but youre also going to kill them in 1-2 shots

[nocturne dust]

a horde of elites? Purgatus be cooking. Unless all crushers 💀

[rancid geyser]

well at least with guns i kinda aim

lmao

[restive slate]

...I'm sorry

[split lance]

a horde of elites, ur going to die from 9 ragers running into ur face, not caring theyre on fire

[wind spruce]

eh, if the targets moving staff lmb is harder to aim!

[summer prairie]

so you get more shrieks generally than with e.g. trauma

[rancid geyser]

surge also has the benefit of amping the living shit out of you peril to just blast hordes with sheirk

its just kinda brain dead

[nocturne dust]

You know the purgatus lmb stuns them, right?

[wind spruce]

doesnt infernos lmb stagger ragers?

[split lance]

with surge, ur going to at least stun them and kill em 2x as fast, as well with ur shriek

[nocturne dust]

si

[rancid geyser]

yes

[mossy oyster]

ye

[split lance]

imagine having to lmb

cant relate

[nocturne dust]

💀

[wind spruce]

yes

[split lance]

yes

[rancid geyser]

really?

[nocturne dust]

Look, I love surge, but if the horde is big enough purgatus will prevail always

[split lance]

nah nah nha

[rancid geyser]

there is no horde when you are on surge

[split lance]

surge is braindead rmb

[wind spruce]

im getting the feeling it does....

[nocturne dust]

although my true love is voidstrike my beloved

[rancid geyser]

as long as you lmb

[flint spear]

the whole purpose of fire stick lmb is to stagger

[nocturne dust]

yes

[rancid geyser]

it does -- just messing with you

[wind spruce]

voidstrike best staff

[split lance]

close ur eyes, rmb, horde is gone and youve been dodging into a wall the whole time

everything still dead

[wind spruce]

i know haha

[split lance]

faster than purg could hope to understand

[nocturne dust]

Are we using the same purg?

[rancid geyser]

to be fair purge clears faster in close engagements

[nocturne dust]

Did you happen to dump damage, perchance?

[rancid geyser]

UNLESS you lmb

[rancid geyser]

they might have because i wouldnt be dunking on purge that bad if i didn't

[split lance]

probably not, my purg always gets out done by other psykers with surge staffs

which is obviously bc surge supremacy

[nocturne dust]

Blaze Away made purge damage no longer a dump stat

[analog agate]

It shouldn’t

[nocturne dust]

It should

[split lance]

ik what im about

[nocturne dust]

Purge is great when alone

electro will obviously win because of range

[split lance]

electro will win always

[nocturne dust]

if everything is dead before purge can hit the enemy, purge won't do damage

[split lance]

excpet if its a horde of fodder

[analog agate]

In game electro is still better cause it can deal with the actual threats faster and shriek for horde clear

[nocturne dust]

I mean a proper electro build will steal purge's kills with shriek

[waxen jackal]

I manage

[split lance]

kill 1 elite in one hit, shriek, everything dies, shriek again, even more dies

[nocturne dust]

Yeah, the full electro build beats purgatus handily because shriek is literally just purgatus

[rancid geyser]

possibly the reason?

idk you cant purg if things dont get close

[restive slate]

What to recommend a Purgatus build to deal with long range?

Please don't say BB haha

[rancid geyser]

even rmb will clear a lot of them before they hit purg range too

[cloud sequoia]

BB

[analog agate]

Yeah. I don’t get where he is saying it beats inferno on hordes though. I don’t think I understand the convo you guys are having

[left basin]

huffing paint

[nocturne dust]

I have bad news

[cloud sequoia]

thats my build BB, purg

[left basin]

burgeratus is the only time i allow myself to use ep

with BEE BEE

[flint spear]

zealot with flamer and throwing knife

[rancid geyser]

technically i think it does, you dont have to be right in front of a horde to mow it down, unless you are on inferno

[flint spear]

[nocturne dust]

Like, okay, staff to staff, purgatus beats electro when there are tons of (non-crusher) enemies. The issue is electro has purgatus inside its build, it's called creeping flames shriek.

[restive slate]

I remember last I played I messed around with SG purgatus and found it fun, does it still hold up?

[left basin]

does for some funky damage on big dudes

[split lance]

THIS IS PEAK COPE

[jovial juniper]

I played with BB so much that I'm expecting mastery skin for my psyker's hand

[nocturne dust]

lol, alright gymbro

go work your brain muscle a bit more

[split lance]

more cope doesnt help

lol

[rancid geyser]

ASSAIL

[restive slate]

When you played BB so much, you start remembering things about your Psykers hands

[nocturne dust]

Then why are you presenting it?

[round charm]

"i know this place like the back of my psykers hands"

[jovial juniper]

Hands gameplay 💯

[nocturne dust]

"I have special hands"

[left basin]

zapstaff is cool - but isn't when you get big swarmed, falls off (maybe not now because of the lmb) real fast and you can't really use the zapstaff to just stand in place and hold 20 ragers

[split lance]

bc all ur points are just wrong so now you have to resort to "alright gymbro" and "work ur brain muscle a bit more"

[restive slate]

Hmmm perhaps, with my SG Purgatus build

[split lance]

thats grade a cope

[rancid geyser]

yeah

[split lance]

You cant back up any of this in a gaame

simply bc surge would beat it out

[left basin]

i dont think i was ever this aggressive on a psyker when i learned that blaze away dropped

[rancid geyser]

SG with assail is nice, i like warp splitting with assails with the +1 pierce

screw gunners

screw hordes from afar

then burn the rest

[nocturne dust]

You're the one that started devolving it by shouting cope, lol.

No real argument, just 'cope'

[restive slate]

I shall do this, thanks

[split lance]

now with ER im even more aggressive with surge

and im still not as aggressive as like Atlas or Agent Chaos

[restive slate]

What's ER, I'm only thinking of that old medical drama series

[split lance]

ur repeating urself over and over with nothing to back it up

[left basin]

neh

[rancid geyser]

idk what keystone you want but i warp siphon and empowered psionics both work

[nocturne dust]

...when did I repeat myself? Lol.

[split lance]

emperic resolve

[nocturne dust]

I pointed out you shouted cope is all.

[restive slate]

Thanks

[split lance]

nvm

i cant do this

anyway

[nocturne dust]

Good

[restive slate]

Will likely go Warp Siphon

Very easy to get the charges back with fire

[pure junco]

im cope

[split lance]

just surprised im the one that needs to work out the brain tbh

[dusk void]

0/3 on auric missions. What a great start lol

[split lance]

oooooooooooof

run surge

lmao

[rancid geyser]

its where you go when you dont have toughness because of Empyric Resolve

[nocturne dust]

You've presented 0 points and only said surge is better than purge without any reasons.

[dusk void]

Nah, just crap randos

[split lance]

kills faster, stuns while killing ffaster,

[nocturne dust]

It kills from farther away, faster isn't really true

[left basin]

you dont have toughness because you're doing things wrong, psyker > getting hit

[split lance]

Ur right purg dot is faster than surge one tap

[rancid geyser]

we all do -- we all feel like our opinions are more valid than anothers and we need to exercise a different mindset 🙂

[nocturne dust]

Blaze Away Purge can kill any group faster than surge, surge only wins against single targets which isn't super useful

[split lance]

my bad g

[dusk void]

I'll cry myself to sleep knowing that I won't clear a single auric mission tonight

[nocturne dust]

#psyker-class message

[rancid geyser]

i get to play dumb and still have all the toughness in the world

lmao

[left basin]

go lmb surge and clear green moron missions alone

[rancid geyser]

even with ER

[dusk void]

nah, screw surge. Blaze trauma all the way

[left basin]

fart trauma feels ass rn and idk i feel like i proc crits way less than before and i can't figure out what the fuck is wrong

[primal aurora]

What are best blessings for Surge staff and Force swords?

[left basin]

DePeNdS

[primal aurora]

On what?

[nocturne dust]

lmb or rmb

[left basin]

there's three force swords and it's unknown what you're building for with zap stick

[primal aurora]

lmb is actually worth it now?

[rancid geyser]

i think yall both have valid claims tho -- surge does technically clear hordes faster via proxy of shriek, yes -- but it also just makes them kinda non existent unless they spawned right on top of you, even without shriek

still think @split lance should accept that purg DOES clear faster in its optimal range tho

it really does

[left basin]

https://tenor.com/view/bats-eyelashes-blank-stare-gif-21277722

[nocturne dust]

It only stuns 2, in no way does that make a horde 'non-existent'

[split lance]

faster fodder

sure

[analog agate]

They aren’t because one is talking about the gestalt of the build and the other is the staff only. They are talking past each other

[primal aurora]

For me there is only Illisi force sword. I don't understand other force swords. If I want a force sword with strong single target damage I would take dueling sword.

[pure junco]

are yall still debating this

thats impressive

[left basin]

surge only clears horde faster when there's not fourteen plasma shots going off at the same time

[rancid geyser]

fair point i guess 😦

the unified whole of a build does matter more tho

at the end of the day

weapons can't just be looked at in a vacuum closed off from the talent tree -- not in a healthy manner

[analog agate]

Yea. I would assume both would agree the normal electro build is better

[nocturne dust]

No, I literally mentioned that I was only talking about the staff and they keep disagreeing

[jovial juniper]

Uncanny Slaughterer
Nexus and whatever

[left basin]

shlizzy is built with slaughterer+uncanny. couldn't tell otherwise

[analog agate]

Yeah that is what I was saying haha. You were talking about the staff only and tren wasn’t. Or he was baiting. Unsure honestly

[nocturne dust]

also this nonsense is clearly about the staves #psyker-class message

I literally say 'staff to staff' and they say surge works better for hordes anyway

[fiery wigeon]

warp splitting go brrrrr

[split lance]

🥱

[nocturne dust]

So they're just wrong

[left basin]

there ever wont be a good qcancel person that dashes at the same time, darktide is where old people go to pretend they have reflexes

[primal aurora]

I didn't know it was a thing at all! I'm from times when lmb was shooting really slow and I couldn't hit a thing with it, unless point blank.

[dusk void]

OMG, I'M DONE WITH THE GAME FOR TONIGHT. CAN'T PLAY WITH IDIOTS

[fiery wigeon]

LMB is decent now

[left basin]

"decent"

[rancid geyser]

i was actually in agreeance with you on purge being better -- maybe with a slight arbitration tho

[jovial juniper]

I don't think the little bolts have enough cleave to benefit from Split

[dusk void]

Decent for a single target. Not Horde clearing

[analog agate]

Yeah I tried to rebind it on my mouse to qc and dodge/move. It, uh, didn’t work out well. Stationary qc for me

[left basin]

just macro it

you probably have a mouse that has led's in it

[nocturne dust]

Did somebody say cheating

[rancid geyser]

almost certain warp splitting doesnt work on them, i tested it earlier, i never get more than 2 kills per shot

[lethal lagoon]

I'm obviously fine with macros/mods, but if a build doesn't work without them, it's not a build, it's a meme.

[analog agate]

It would be the only way I would play a lmb electro anyways (macro that is). Hurts my finger to keep clicking like that

[dusk void]

0/4 on auric missions. Can't play with crap randos that keep dying/using their staff/weapon incorrectly

[left basin]

i use my sneed edgine to sneed my scoreboards so that the ds zealots have an aneurysm

[rancid geyser]

nah if they complain about pubs in regular damnation i think its valid

yes XD

[analog agate]

You just need to keep playing. You get to a point where you know exactly when to hold. Exactly when to push. Exactly where to maneuver. And that is when you just never care who you play with

You definitely learn it through dying

[left basin]

you are the extreme bad, you killed the knife zealot with an overhead

[nocturne dust]

I learned it through not dying

i wish i could macro qcancel crusher overheads so i can remove all the zealots from my games

[rancid geyser]

cause losing a run doesnt mean they are just bad

lmao

0/4 is still nutty tho

[analog agate]

We all have bad nights haha. To put it in perspective though. I have, idk, 2-3k aurics played

[rancid geyser]

if anything in auric lobbies I am the bad player, cause i dont have that many runs

and we be winning

[nocturne dust]

Why carry when you can be carried

[dusk void]

I have been playing for less than a year now with over 1000 hours in. Maybe I'm meant to play on the regular mission board where there is a surplus of awful players that can't even complete a normal damnation misison

[fossil cairn]

Newish Psyker (level 17) lfg anyone tryna run?

[rancid geyser]

if ppl could carry my i would save so many ordos

real talk

would be nice

[fossil cairn]

🙂

[left basin]

people are debating air at this point

[dusk void]

Can I run with you. I need at least 1 win to put me in a happy mood

[fossil cairn]

let's go

I'm on xbox

[nocturne dust]

me being the top player in my last 100 runs

[fossil cairn]

let's commandeer one of the vox chats?

[rancid geyser]

these are the training grounds

they will forge you into what you were meant to be

[fossil cairn]

Strike Team 22

find me there

[zinc phoenix]

When you play makes a BIG difference

[nocturne dust]

Well that's not true, there was that match with Clad and Atlas where I took purge and watched the rando and Atlas murder everything with their surge staves

that was fun, finally got to relax

[split lance]

Average surge game

[nocturne dust]

not even 800k, gotta pump those numbers up

[late sapphire]

I swear to go man bad players are one thing but i only really get annoyed if they also can't speak english

[split lance]

staff overkill damage doesnt count here

sorry

[rancid geyser]

.>

[late sapphire]

Usually it's getting matched with a group of russian knife zealots that sends me over the brink

[zinc phoenix]

Voice chat, not even once

[nocturne dust]

You can get 800k pretty easy on a surge build so idk what you mean

[rancid geyser]

I think everyone here has more hours than me even the players in auric -- big assumption tho

been too busy crying about magic card bans

[split lance]

unironically ive had purg games where i did less damage than i have with just warpfire here

[split lance]

sorry im a "gymbro" not a degen

[late sapphire]

Purg damage sucks if you team is competent cause it has no range

[zinc phoenix]

I mean time of day. Late US time zone is pretty dire for skill level while afternoon euro tz is very solid

[nocturne dust]

My biggest peeve is when they have their mic open and there are sounds coming through but no speech

[late sapphire]

If your team is incompetent though you get to enjoy infinite cleave and infinite enemies

[late sapphire]

Means they have vc on = you can turn vc on too & yell at em

[nocturne dust]

lmao you still on that 💀

[rancid geyser]

aaah, make sense

[split lance]

im pulling up the scoreboard too

one sec

[nocturne dust]

No I can't, I don't use VC 😔

[flint spear]

not so farmed

[nocturne dust]

It will prove nothing

[late sapphire]

I will spring you the 20€ to get a shitty mic

[split lance]

pointless internet arguments are one of, if not my favorite things to do

[nocturne dust]

I have a mic, I just can't use it. I'm mute currently.

[zinc phoenix]

Stop biting your tongue

😂

[late sapphire]

When i was younger i used to go on forums and post semantically incorrect opinions and then go back and forth for potentially months on end

Now forums don't exist anymore

[zinc phoenix]

They do

[late sapphire]

A shame, i can't afford to spring you the therapy money

Good luck my man

[nocturne dust]

No worries, it's temporary for me anyway. Just some medical problems passing through.

[split lance]

its just kinda funny how upset people can get online

like

[late sapphire]

I feel that it is healthy to get upset online from time to time

It would be hard, for me at least, to maintain a friendly temperament in person if i also had to maintain one online

[zinc phoenix]

🦍 🫂 💪

[restive slate]

No pent up

[late sapphire]

If you get too invested though, you'll suffer meaningless losses

[split lance]

im honestly just constantly chill

[restive slate]

Like Psyker, quell or shriek

[split lance]

so it like makes up for it

unless im fighting the 2nd or 3rd DH of the map

[late sapphire]

Or explode!

[split lance]

then im like rambo

Are you not a loyal servant of the emperor?

[rancid geyser]

inferno users

[late sapphire]

Demonhosts are heretics, and must be fought

[restive slate]

I'm totally a loyal servant...

[split lance]

oh trust me just ask @lethal lagoon or @strong gulch or @wind spruce, they can assure you i fight every DH

[nocturne dust]

BLOOD FOR THE GOD EMPEROR, SKULLS FOR THE GOLDEN THRONE!

I imagine the Daemonhost is Wyrmwood

[split lance]

[late sapphire]

One day he'll get him

[split lance]

[split lance]
