smite shriek is insane

Definetly not unusable, but if Im using EP Id rather snipe with brain burst rather than stand still holding m1 for 10 seconds

it's my first time doing ep smite okay lmao
i just saw it burn hordes with PC

flint spear
#

Ah yes ep the worst blitz out of 3

plucky flax

Blaze Trauma (Voidblast) was kind of mid with the Unlocked and Loaded update because blazing spirits t4 is a meme. But with the fixed Kinetic Flayer, it really glows up. The shock wave dealing tiny damage can proc KF on an elite to get the soulblaze train going. Chu Chu Chu!!!

This is bs, teammates are throwing so boi can hit 1m damage for the thumbnail

plucky flax

I create too much chaos teammates don't know what to do and just die.

quartz barn
#

Me but on recon KEKW_ogryn

vale mural
#

is there a channel to share builds

#

or do i have to use a link for that

#

i made a lil something but i would like an opinion since its likely complete poopoo

vale mural
plucky flax
#

There's a thread but you can just post here.

vale mural
#

i cant

#

idk if its a role issue

plucky flax
#

Oh right no link yet.

#

You have to type more random stuff.

Grey name moment

vale mural
#

😭

plucky flax
#

Just keep spamming the channel.

quartz barn
#

Use zealot chat for it pls

vale mural
#

nah its fine

#

XDDD

#

HAHA

#

are zealots this hated? 😭

plucky flax
#

Zealot chat is special...

quartz barn
#

No its just that zealot chat is uhhh

plucky flax
#

I don't go there for like 2 years now.

#

It's entirely off topic and very opinionated about build.

#

It's 'meta' or nothing.

quartz barn
#

???

plucky flax
#

Emprah forbid you play bleed knife as a zealot.

#

You'll be flayed.

vale mural
#

is it actually the meta

#

i mean

#

this is not zealot chan so

#

i'll just say this, i personally do 200% times better

plucky flax
#

I think it's really strong lacerate and uncanny.

vale mural
#

as dueling sword zealot than knife

plucky flax
#

But zealot chat will tell you to run non bleed or you're really bad.

latent mauve

#

What if I just want to shank and bleed people? SadgeCry

vale mural
#

bleeding people is fun

#

but honestly

#

i just suck with the knife

#

xdd

quartz barn
#

Just tell zealots to properly use their abils

vale mural
#

i maybe just dont play it properly

#

but

#

i do 10 times worse with knife

#

than dueling

plucky flax
#

Don't tell them you play stealth or loner aura. whatthefuck_heresy

latent mauve
quartz barn
#

Instead of crutching on stealth/choir as an escape tool

latent mauve
#

We are not the same

vale mural
#

esp when like

#

stealth isnt even bad like

#

theres much worse abilities in the game

#

that you could argue are actually useless

#

xd

latent mauve
#

I woke up so early

plucky flax
#

Loner aura is really cool you regen toughness 100% of the time.

latent mauve
#

0830

vale mural
#

and even then like nothing is really useless ig?

#

if you base a build around it its maybe crap compared to the meta

#

but it'll suit its own purpose

plucky flax
#

But anyway if you like something just play it. yesgryn

There’s a lot of things that are useless

#

i almost added you like an hour ago cuz i saw you seemed to main psyker when we did and i'm trying to get into it now

#

but i felt like it would be a random odd add lmaooo

latent mauve
#

Think I’ll play dclaw today

radiant frigate
#

i do seem to main psyker but i am finding it hard to continue doing so

vale mural
#

is it that one martyr class

#

that devs just nerf?

radiant frigate
#

we didn't get any nerfs

#

just started playing psyker (with gun) and it is effective but kind of a turn-off

slender coyote
#

which psyker personalitu watched skibid toilet

vale mural
#

psyker with gun looked fun to me but honestly

#

it feels kinda illegal, as in not really what i'd play psyker for

vale mural
slender coyote
radiant frigate
#

the problem i find is that if i'm using a gun and something like DS, zealot can play that setup BUT BETTER

slender coyote
#

it even has a force push

radiant frigate
#

laspistol with dumdum infernus does fantastic boss damage

#

hell even vet will do that setup better

slender coyote
#

I can't tell if you pfp is Shadowheart or just an Elf

radiant frigate
#

and both will do so with more mobility and tankiness

vale mural
#

just an elf i think

slender coyote
#

damn

#

I don't remember if vet can use heavy laspistol

vale mural
#

do u have anything thats important that changed?

(nvm its not, sorry for the ping
just the mod for smaller skill tree that threw me off with the different layout)

radiant frigate
#

if anyone asks why i like kerillian

#

i just like elf

vale mural
#

at first its why i played her

#

then i started playing her the least somehow

#

only played waystalker for boss killing or SOTT

radiant frigate
#

sott makes me sad

vale mural
#

then became a grail knight main

#

😭

radiant frigate
#

not as sad as necromancer patch which inexplicably killed my framerate

#

since then i have been on dt

vale mural
#

tbf necromancer is the reason why i liked playing psyker at first

#

brain rupture made me think of soulstealer a lot

#

hahahaa

#

but i think you can probably tweak some config settings

#

to remove the effects from necro

radiant frigate
#

i started playing psyker because in how it plays it is most like elf

vale mural
#

Elf main

radiant frigate

ow oof my spine

vale mural
#

what mark do people usually like on force sword

radiant frigate
#

usually illisi or deimos

#

deimos is dueling sword adjacent

vale mural
#

oh

radiant frigate
#

illisi has excellent horde clear and okayish single target

vale mural
#

hmm i see

#

you lost me at dueling ngl

radiant frigate
#

obscurus is the one that was there since release and then got overshadowed when the other two came along

vale mural
#

tyty

radiant frigate
#

deimos can also still have serviceable horde clear

#

with enough buffs, like malefic momentum and potentially sg

#

and slaughterer

echo root
#

I prefer deimos

#

Light -> heavy goes hard

radiant frigate
#

i have been playing around with both

#

undecided as to which i actually prefer now

echo root
#

Special attack is kinda risky on deimos

radiant frigate
#

deimos is definitely better vs elites

echo root
#

But it's really nice at locking down fat targets

radiant frigate
#

and illisi is the one i have been using for a very long time now

#

illisi kind of feels like playing dual swords except you actually have some armor damage

#

still not great vs crushers but you can make do

vale mural
#

i see

#

interesting

#

i'll try both

#

ty!

I don't see a reason to use Illisi if your staff has great horde clear / control

oh no i totally agree with you

It's dd psyker but better KEKW_ogryn

dueling sword is stupid powerful with it

radiant frigate

if i play psyker the way i can play ds zealot i will just get pasted

vale mural

xdd true

radiant frigate

but it's ok because it's zealot

ive been saying it for a while

#

zealots need rending on fall length

round charm
#

anyone have a revolver gunker build?

flint spear
#

Ep assail gaze

plucky flax
rotund fable
full panther
#

probably something like this

#

haven't tried it with revolver but it's solid for any non-warp ranged weapon

round charm
#

does cleave help guns, or is there also just melee increses in there too?

full panther
#

pretty sure cleave affects everything

radiant frigate
#

so you just generate toughness with empowered illisi and crits

full panther
#

yep pretty much, you have like 60% toughness DR during scrier's gaze so you don't need as much toughness gen

#

the only part I'm not really confident about is surety, I just threw that on for this build since revolver lives and dies on reload speed

#

usually that point would be in quietude or perfect timing for me, but that's using the recon lasgun or vraks

round charm
#

revolver just sounded funny, and ive seen clips of it deleting monstrosities. wasnt sure if that was meta, or just niche hyper build

rotund fable
#

there we go

full panther
#

yeah like I said, this build usually runs vraks or recon, I just figure revolver can work just as well

round charm
#

so now that ive put the points in, how does it work?

full panther
round charm
#

aim+shoot and scriers against big stuff/packs?

#

im looking for fun, clear speed, and ease of access

full panther
#

pretty sure the agripinaa is the one that deletes monsters, since you can fan fire it

round charm
#

before update the last time i played was like 6 months after release, so im just testing everything and seeing what is enjoyable

full panther
rotund fable
#

This is a janky build i briefly experimented with. Shards for clearing packs of chaff, revolver for deleting immediate threats, and Devil claw for general purpose use.

Good? probably not.
Fun? yes, if you like getting into the thick of things.

potent echo
#

Eepy assail

#

I don't like it because you can't* oneshot shooters without stacks

quartz barn
#

But unless you spam assail you'll always have ep up

near wyvern
rotund fable
# potent echo I don't like it because you can't* oneshot shooters without stacks

Funnily enough, with the malefic momentum changes, I was able to 1-shot basic dreg shooters if I had max stacks before swapping to assail... usually with my swinging the d-claw into a horde of groaners then back-dashing to toss a shard out.

Again though, the build above was just some jank i briefly experimented with. these days my gun-psyker build uses the recon lasgun, and focuses heavily into the "gun" part of gun-psyker.

Fake +3 stam my beloved

plucky flax
potent echo
#

It's not a negligible part of your damage

#

Personally I would dump peril res but that depends on your playstyle which one you wanna dump

slate oasis
#

warp res it is then. thanks

full panther
#

I still can't decide what to dump on lmb nomanus

pine brook
#

What dump stat for psykers staffs should be?

full panther
#

I thought warp resist at first but it actually feels pretty noticeable how much faster peril builds up during scrier's for a 60% vs an 80%

#

I'd say charge rate but I actually like weaving in RMB for specials and flak armor

pine brook
#

Quell?

frozen loom
#

lmao i got stuck in chasm station

glass plume
#

@plucky flax Yo, what's the mod that displays your peril quell change instantly rather than the rapid number decrease?

#

(I presume it's a mod rather than a general UI setting)

worn beacon
#

Question

#

stam, health and toughness are good for curios right?

plucky flax
#

900k damage in 27 mins using only surge right click. 1 melee kill because I push a burster nooooo

glass plume
summer prairie
#

Why perilgauge instead of just trueperil

plucky flax
#

Oh if you don't want the gauge just use truperil

mossy oyster
#

I use og true peril (I think they updated it)

#

I prefer the numbers to the bar

#

its just pref

summer prairie
#

I haven't used the gauge but I like seeing exactly how much I quell per tick. Maybe the other mod does that too but don't see the point in a bar

plucky flax
#

PerilGauge also uses the same code for chunk-quelling.

#

I think it's made by the same guy actually.

summer prairie
#

does it show the numbers

#

I guess it does based on the description

languid dragon
#

which is better? (im new)

summer prairie
#

right much better

#

but you need to upgrade both

#

and the item levels seems low, will be expesnive

#

wait until you are 30 if you aren't

languid dragon
#

yeah im not 30 yet

#

lvl 19

summer prairie
#

at least for upgrading, for using right now it's kind of a wash, better use some other weapon

#

trauma isn't good without specific blessings and fairly high base stats

languid dragon
#

but I like it

summer prairie
#

I guess the right one is still a bit better then

plucky flax
#

Based trauma enjoyer.

languid dragon
#

but if I was to consecrate the left one would it not be better because it has a higher power rating?

plucky flax
#

Even at low lvl. PeepoCry

languid dragon
summer prairie
#

don't waste materials on either and the right one has nearly perfect stat potential

plucky flax
#

The staff is hard to play at low level.

#

The right one will give better stats spread when fully upgraded though.

#

But it'll be quite expensive to make it 500.

languid dragon
summer prairie
#

it's the second number, like 58/80 means 80 max

plucky flax
#

It says there 53/80.

summer prairie
#

for staves you generally want 80 potential for all stats expect warp resistance

plucky flax
#

34 charge rate tho

languid dragon
plucky flax
#

At 80 charge rate it will feel so much more fluid.

zinc phoenix

New players in darktide is always nice

languid dragon
#

haha there was a 50% weekend sale so I thought why not the most recent re-reviews seemed good

zinc phoenix
#

It was fun at the start too tbh

flint spear
#

Only the decay from warp res is kinda noticable KEKW_ogryn

slender coyote
#

Yeah i played it after it went out of beta

flint spear
#

Not even worth it

slender coyote
#

but the guy who bought me the game stopped playing it so now i'm stuck in quickplay

flint spear
#

4 rmb at 60 res 4 rmb at 80 res

#

No shit

glass plume
frozen loom
#

I'm shy so i'm stuck in qp too

glass plume
#

So PerilGuage it is

summer prairie
#

I still use TruePeril, but if it can do the same and you don't mind the gauge, sure

glass plume
#

Wonder if it has the option to remove the gauge entirely because yeh I don't use the bar itsself either

summer prairie
#

Penetration of the soul doesn't work, by the way

plucky flax
#

I think there's an option to turn off the bar.

vale mural
#

personally i just use it for the bar because it talks to me a lot more than the number itself, which i only really care about the number for 100% so i dont blow tf up

summer prairie
#

it would be nice if it could read your staff max charge peril cost and utilize that somehow

vale mural
summer prairie
#

so the mod could show when it's safe to do a full charge with your current staff, though that could still lead to dangerous situations if you don't immediately fire after reaching max

vale mural
#

ahh

#

i mean that sounds cool but

#

i assume it'd have to be dependant on all your skills, blessings etc

summer prairie
#

sure, still wouldn't be difficult though

vale mural
#

i would have not minded to try to tweak it if the mod's not being updated anymore

#

but since i never modded the game before i''d struggle way too much to do all the checks for the skills etc

plucky flax
#

But it's funny to full charge then blow up.

languid dragon
#

whats a good way for me to get weapon mastery?

frozen loom
#

sacrifice weapon from the same family. So either buy them, buy from brunt -> consecrate -> sacrifice
or just play with the weapon

languid dragon
#

that sounds really expensive an unrealistic for a newbie lol

what it says

#

lol

languid dragon

thanks man because I for sure know what rending means

summer prairie
#

rending doesn't really mean anything if you don't know already

fringe garden
#

Bypasses 10% of enemy armor

summer prairie
#

but doesn't do anything if you already do full damage to that armor type

chrome tangle
#

Your attacks penetrate 10% of armour.

when the % on screen is above 75,
magic attacks bypass 10% of armor

frozen loom

dull osprey

🫃

summer prairie
#

it's a very small dmg bonus against only a few armor types depending on your staff

#

if your team provides more sources of rending/brittle maybe it does something, or would if it worked

fringe garden
#

Probably would be good on Infernus

You're forced to take it because you don't want ER but still go down to warp charges.

plucky flax
#

I know.. warp charges is alreaady big as is.

#

And you're forced to take dumpy 10% rending at above 75% peril for burga NOOO

#

I hope they rework that node at some point it's so bad.

fringe garden
#

What's not to like about ER? Especially with bringing Assail to give range options. Allows for solid attack spam and makes edging easy

frozen loom
#

assuming it worked, how bad is it for purgatus?

plucky flax
#

It doesn't do anything for burga because 10% is so small.

#

And you don't want ER on burga because you want high peril.

summer prairie
#

doing more damage to carapace is useless

#

it's still nothing

frozen loom
#

literally nothingburger i see

fringe garden
#

You can maintain high peril with even less effort with ER.

You can apply blaze to everything that doesn't explode
It's a good range

plucky flax

Left click surge is good for single target, but it's agaisnt squishy elites anyway. Against monsters and ogryns it's meh.

I honestly don't rate that build that much.

But I am bad and can't aim. whatthefuck_heresy

austere pulsar
#

I'm bad and can't aim well, but at least the enemies get suppressed if I spam surge left click even if I miss lol

plucky flax
#

Veri tru

#

But I just prefer surge right click since it auto aim anyway.

austere pulsar
#

amen

#

tbh that's what I like about surge staff (and auto fire mod)
Left click into weaker enemies, right click on the stronger enemies, works well on both

Hopefully fatshark fixes this some time within the next millennia

slate oasis
steel flame
#

why fix it when it aint broke yet

radiant frigate
#

i do not believe that

primal aurora
radiant frigate
#

especially with what they did to autogun names

#

columnus renamed to vraks and graia renamed to columnus

old ore
#

I havent played ina year but got like 300k dockets saved up, whats the best way to get or craft new gear? is just buying random profaned and hoping for 370?

plucky flax
#

Just look at the potential stats.

carmine agate
#

does LMB surge take empyric shock?

radiant frigate
#

find a piece of potential stats with the distribution you like and upgrade from there

old ore
#

so the rating? or what ever the number at the top right doesnt matter anymore?

plucky flax
carmine agate
#

aight

#

hmm imma try RMB surge too for a change

old ore
#

and whats weapon mastery all about?

radiant frigate
#

unlocking blessings perks and power

#

to customize weapons to your heart's content

slate oasis
# radiant frigate was clarity the goal?

oh I don't actually know I just kind of assumed because inferno is more obvious that purgatus and electro is little more clear than surge and doesn't overlap with the surge blessing

radiant frigate
analog agate
#

Yeah, the guns are the head scratcher. The staves make sense

sturdy tendon
#

Just remember that the fast shooty one is XII

#

The rest is irrelevant

radiant frigate
#

why is the kantrael IV now the kantrael IIb?

#

who knows

sturdy tendon
#

The name swaps fucked me over a bunch tbh

sturdy tendon
#

At least the staff names aren't too bad

#

Aside from voidblast

#

Should have stayed Trauma

#

Now it's confusing with Voidstrike

dusk void
analog agate
#

There is a blessing named trauma. I assume that is why they renamed it

quartz barn
#

Rename the blessing thumbsup_ogryn

radiant frigate
#

i would even argue that voidstrike and voidblast even have their names the wrong way around

analog agate
#

Yeah I was just about to type that

slate oasis
#

or just be really on the nose and call it the explosion staff

analog agate
#

Wasn’t nexus another name at one point?

radiant frigate
#

Explodination Staff

sturdy tendon
#

The poxburster griefing staff

radiant frigate
#

pogsburster

sturdy tendon
#

See a teammate waiting to push off a burster?
Charge that AOE with malicious intent

#

On that note I griefed myself with a frag grenade and a burster

#

Fun times

analog agate
#

I follow the burster with my aeo when it is running towards a teammate. I let the teammate push it back. But it is just to keep them on their toes

worthy trellis
#

Surge staff LMB spam build was quite fun. Thx all for the info 🙂

radiant frigate
#

your fault for running frags tbh

lofty marsh
sturdy tendon
#

Frags are just superior in every way to kraks IMO

radiant frigate
sturdy tendon
#

I usually run either a revolver or a melee that can deal with crushers

#

Sometimes both my melee and ranged can kill crushers easily

plucky flax
#

Use funny p sword and deal with everything.

sturdy tendon
#

Like shovel + revolver combo

radiant frigate
#

shovolver

sturdy tendon
#

You can get caught very easily with it with your pants down

radiant frigate
#

i am yet to try dueling sword vet

dull osprey
#

Same as allways

#

Stab stab bum death

sturdy tendon
#

I ran it today with dbarrel shotty

plucky flax
#

I love p sword speed aura and smoke nade.

sturdy tendon
#

My fingers didn't appreciate it

plucky flax
#

It's so funny.

old ore
#

how do I make sense of the number in the brackets?

#

is 80% the max it can go?

sturdy tendon
#

That's the max potential of the weapon

#

Versus current

old ore
#

so weapons can roll 100%?

sturdy tendon
#

No

#

Same as before

#

80% is the max

#

4 stats at 80% and one at 60%

#

Is generally the ideal outcome

old ore
#

thanks

sturdy tendon
#

Anyhow scrap this weapon

#

Finesse is not at 80%

old ore
#

what does finesse do?

sturdy tendon
#

Crit damage and weak spot damage iirc

dull osprey
#

Yez

sturdy tendon
#

Anyhow it's generally the most important stat on any weapon that has it

dull osprey
#

Tbh you can press inspec on any weapon and hover mouse over stat to see what exactly it does

unique mist
#

Really enjoying surge/nexus electro staff + smite + bubble shield with max toughness

#

Bubble shield is excellent

#

So good when you need to push into new territory swarming with gunners

dull osprey
#

Thing is smite and dome overlaps a bit

#

If you are smiting you dont really need the defenses of the dome

old ore
#

is this ok or am I really hoping for 80% on finesse?

dull osprey
#

64% dmg

#

Keep buying

nocturne dust
unique mist
old ore
#

rip didnt notice

zinc phoenix
unique mist
#

can't smite those gunners firing at you 50m away

nocturne dust
#

you want mobility to be 60 on duelling sword. Some dump cleave damage tho, so that's an option I guess.

dull osprey
#

You can empower a weapon to the max right number so only look whats in the right as potential max

zinc phoenix
nocturne dust
old ore
#

oh so like this is ok?

unique mist
dull osprey
sturdy tendon
unique mist
#

Shriek doesn't secure a rez or hack like Dome can

nocturne dust
sturdy tendon
#

What you don't want to use, you can just upgrade once and sacrifice for easy mastery

#

Sacrifice only green items

unique mist
#

I personally would dump cleave, doesn't duelling sword have enhanced mobility stuff?

nocturne dust
dull osprey
zinc phoenix
nocturne dust
#

so not super significant

unique mist
#

I smite for the melee packs (smite staggers when you end it) and dome for rezzes getting fucked by ranged targets

sturdy tendon
#

I like how 2 stamina bars means you can infinitely slide on Psyker

nocturne dust
#

You don't need stamina to slide

sturdy tendon
#

Why I likely won't take stamina curios on DS

sturdy tendon
#

And sliding let you regenerate just enough for another sprint slide

nocturne dust
#

You still sprint enough to slide, you just don't dodge ranged shots

atomic wasp
#

anyone else noticed this talent isnt working?

nocturne dust
#

It is working, the icon display is not. Generally.

atomic wasp
#

so even though i was watching the buff drop stacks every 4s it was (probably) still working?

nocturne dust
#

yes

#

but obviously they could always introduce another bug for it, lol

atomic wasp
#

has this actually been tested or is it more of a feeling?

nocturne dust
#

tested

atomic wasp
#

on this patch?

dull osprey
#

This has been a bug for months now

nocturne dust
atomic wasp
#

well, as long as its working i guess

#

i was trying to use the increased stacks, but there just isnt enough marked enemies and theyre too easily stolen by other people to keep stacks up

nocturne dust
#

Yeah, the increased max stacks is a bit crappy with how short the duration is and how random the targets you have to kill can be placed

atomic wasp
#

even using assail, which i find is usually the quickest way to rack em up

upper sun
#

some stats like mobility, collateral, defense,

old ore
nocturne dust
#

iirc isn't there a mod that fixes DD's buff icon

dull osprey
rigid sky
#

Lingering Influence is where it's at

summer prairie
#

even if you somehow manage to keep the higher stacks up, most likely you are losing dps due to playing more inefficiently

rigid sky
#

Like I want to feel the power of 25 stacks

#

But I know it's most likely to mean I spend more time below 10 stacks than I would with LI

upper sun
#

higher one is what it can be

pure junco
#

is flurry on shock staff still broken?

upper galleon
#

Surge nexus

jovial juniper
#

Don't listen to those siblings
You know they are holding you from achieving your maximum potential from 25 DD stacks

#

We both know we are destined for it

#

ahem

#

Yeah use lingering influence

pure junco
#

surely this time ill get marks faster than 4 seconds!!

pure junco
nocturne dust
#

would be neat if the default was 10 seconds and lingering influence made it stupid like 60 seconds

jovial juniper
#

We are bringing the 30 seconds back with this one 🗣️

upper galleon
nocturne dust
pure junco
#

is shock the only staff flurry is broken on or is it broken in general?

fleet belfry

I think it’s fine on purgatus

slate oasis

right click is now banned

Right click. Straight to jail

plucky flax

Only using right click and didn't even melee anything

you just wanted a reason to show off

#

All staves are good now I'd put surge and burga as the 2 standout

pure junco
#

which perk is most conveniant in yalls opinion for surge voidstrike? crit chance yeah?

#

not sure what else

potent echo
#

nexus or flurry

#

oh perk haha

#

i just put cara and elites

#

elites mainly to reach dreg gunner / rager BPs

#

cara to blast crushers

pure junco
#

so no major breakpoints?

potent echo
#

psyker bps are so fluid with malefic

#

perfect timing

#

DD

analog agate
#

Cool we are in a place where everyone seems to agree the staves are all good. Purg used to be meh and before that surge. And before that void. And before that trauma

potent echo
#

i just take 10% elites and make it more consistent

#

5% crit chance is probably unnoticable

pure junco
#

even with surge?

potent echo
#

but so is 10% elites maybe KEKW_ogryn

#

i run flurry surge voidstrike

#

relying on true aim to proc crits mainly

analog agate
pure junco
#

i see

#

im probably not gonna do that lol

#

im not talking abut electro

#

im talking about voidstrike

analog agate
#

Ah

potent echo
#

its a more high-maintenance playstyle where you track your true aim while swapping between melee/assail

#

also flurry is there when you just wanna blast

pure junco
#

i guess ill go flak + maniac and rely on dueling sword for carapace if i need to

potent echo
#

flak is good for mauler bodyshots

#

pierces a line of them, esp with warpsplitting

sturdy tendon
analog agate
#

I honestly have not been able to tell any difference between using elite vs maniac on electro

sturdy tendon
#

Warp Charges mean that the breakpoints constantly change anyhow

potent echo
#

its still 2 non crit electros for ragers

sturdy tendon
#

At least if you spam F

potent echo
#

but sometimes your teammate damage them first so its more consistent

sturdy tendon
#

It affects creeping flames though so it's good for that

Its definitely underperforming thumbsup_ogryn

Buff Trauma

pure junco

The sword that sounds really fun until you realize everything that you want to apply soul blaze to usually dies from crits anyways

#

Blaze Away makes it really nice now

#

Flurry is such a meh blessing on burger staff

analog agate
#

Hence why it isn’t recommended anymore

pure junco
#

man i played purg staff up to 20 and i still dont know how i feel about it

analog agate
#

And as far as I know… now that everyone can make a blaze blast build. Flurry/rending is probably out the window too

hollow jolt
#

Can't go wrong with more rending

vernal temple
#

Ah yes, the gun is made of gun

pine brook
#

Does Surge (2 shots on crit) works on electo staff?

sturdy tendon
#

Only on the regular shots

jovial juniper
sturdy tendon
#

Not on the charge

#

Surge Surge is pretty strong left click spam build though

vernal temple
#

it's disgustingly efficient

pine brook
#

Best blessings for electro staff?

analog agate
#

Nexus and then either flurry or surge dependent on your build

#

Atm flurry is bugged though with half charges shots

potent echo
#

i just found out that the bolt pistol reloads correctly KEKW_ogryn

#

they only rack the slide if the chamber is empty

vernal temple
#

Charge rate as the dump stat

#

+25% vs Unyielding

sturdy tendon
#

Better to just dump warp Resist and have a staff that you can convert into conventional Surge build

pine brook
#

Surge build? Blessing or something from talents?

plucky flax
#

Surge blessing for surge staff

pine brook
#

Electro staff...

plucky flax
#

Or if you go normal right click build its warp nexus and flurry

#

Right click and creeping flames spam

plucky flax
# pine brook Electro staff...

Additional peril generation reduction and having soulstealer make you tankier and can spam surge (electrokinetic) more. As always, smash F to spam creeping flames and everything will die. Smite is there for super hairy situation but 90% of the map you will just spam your staff.

It annihilates specials, elites, carapace, has a degree of inbuilt CC, you don't have to aim, and for hordeclear you have illisi and shriek/creeping flame

and if shit hits the fan you have smite in your back pocket, that build does errythin

Oh and with kinetic deflect you are effectively immortal in melee lol

plucky flax

The ease of play with the amount of things you can so is absurd.

Letting us spam surge more.

i could have sworn ive seen surge do 3 targets sometimes

potent echo

They fixed the +1 sadly.

#

It was sort of worth it.

summer prairie
#

use increased_max_jumps blessing for +1 fork

plucky flax

Surge working on right click with 2 main big damage and 2 smol damages would be really cool.

You made me click on the video whatthefuck_heresy

Electrosurge staff needs to happen

Where do I go to harrass fatshark

also why cant our ogryns be covered in sheet metal??

There's that helldiver set right?

I missed it whilst I was away

zinc phoenix

i stg we have the kmart ogryns

"ogryn at home"

clear heath

actually not the worst idea for a new ogryn class
ogryn needs someone to share weapons with

The enforcer set is pretty good if you want to be fully armored

No concrete rebar weapon when fallout NV has one staregryn

pine sail
#

Do you guys ever use the Telekine Shield with 2x charges and stun specialists instead of the circle one? I see the circle used most often.

sturdy tendon
#

Dome is just more braindead

jovial juniper
#

Bubble is a safe pick

#

Walls are goated though

sturdy tendon
#

No need to think too much, just plop it down

pine sail
#

Is it because it's just a circle so its easy or is it from the modifiers like toughness regen

sturdy tendon
#

Toughness regen inside the dome is also pretty strong

pine sail
#

I starting using the wall and stunning specialists is really interesting, or dropping the wall behind the team while we run away to guarantee no specialis are following behind

sturdy tendon
#

The square requires some level of placement and thinking that is beyond the thought that goes into plopping down a dome shield

pine sail
#

Yeah it also feels less useful vs hordes, that toughness regen is always useful though

mossy oyster
#

when have I ever lead you astray

pine sail
#

But in theory if specials are a major issue then the wall stopping them should be an amazing ability
