fuck why does everyone just does it naturally
was it changed?
im not having this shit if it was easier before i got the game
probably but try left click maybe that will give you better timing
im pre charging BB already yeah
I bought the game a week ago
dude how
it was on steam sale 60% off
I honestly am unsure at this point iwasnt really paying attnetion to it
but try using left mouse button instead of right
starting it as you have line of sight on the dog might give you the right timing
LMB also blows it up as soon as its charged
and dogs tend to be slower than BB chargeup time
yeah but it starts only when you have line of sight on your target
besides, it will stun the dog when you charge it high enough
and it wont leap then
how do you even farm this more efficiently?
dogs always spawn with a ton of poxies
and most end up dying before they even charge you
because they need to PICK YOU for a charge first for you to even have a chance at getting the penance
then you need to react to it and dodge out of the leap and blow it up
and pray to Emperor that the game isnt a bitch and actually counts that
Maybe you're overthinking it at this point
try doing something else and have it happen by accident like me xD
I do tend to overthink things
but
im a TF2 player
how do i NOT overthink a sick ass hat?
i want it
right now
and that stupid penance wont let me get it
hahaha fair enough
what mission was it you said was good for the cliff hanger penance?
that
or basically any mission with a bridge
This one?
Vigil Station is the best for it but basically any mission with a bridge should fit
Aspecially gonna be easy if you ask your teammates to help group some poxies up
I dont see it on the mission list?
unlucky
Then you'll have to get lucky so it comes into rotation
simple as

The one time I get to load in with bots and they now decided to play for real
they keep killin the enemies before I can shove em off
Hab block dreyko also has a nice bridge
As does that new repair mission with swagger, whole start is one big ledge
its not working :C
pushed off 3 trash mobs with a no peril shriek and I didnt get credit for it
basically all the chasm terminus missions have a good long bridge
aight thanks
vigil station my beloved...........
Disliked cliff hanger so damn much.....
Then again i did it back when you needed 20 kills
I even did pick n mix and peril explosion ones in their og way, but i lucked out on those
Getting OG warp battery was such a strugsfest back in the day
and then you lose all stacks because the funny vet with a mk12 UwU
im legit struggling to do it -_-
for some reason my chat isnt working and the teams I keep getting put with just kill the dregs im tryign to set up
I got it by running a bit ahead in one of the hourglass missions
not that i know of, but it should be
The one where you destroy the green containers in the end
Near the start you go up an elevator, and the area afterwards always has a horde
I just ran outside, dropped down and turned right
It was nice playing with you yesterday Kat!
Theres a small bit of scaffolding that you can push enemies off of
likewise, also nice clutch

i do think that i will no longer be running precog thrust
On DS?
I ran with it and... Well I did not stack it that much tbh
I'm pushing enemies off edges and cliffs but im not getting credit for it
what am I doing wrong?
or uncanny rampage
It's very meme-y
rampage is like a diet slaughterer
On zealot I will go back to riposte precog
They die to something else before they hit the death box / someone else got kill credit
Not a fan of uncanny
big crit chance
I dont think thats possible im using a grey 330 force sword to push them off
On vet with reciprocity, desperado and precision strikes... Riposte precog should work quite well too
I tried DS5 with rampage and I was surprised to proce it that often
Just light spamming 😅
i was never a big reciprocity fan but i also almost exclusively played psword (where crits don't matter much and things you would be dodging are dead already)
meanwhile DS horde clear kinda sucks so i at least get something out of it
Yeah I don't bother with reciprocity outside of knives, ds or taxes
Reciprocity at least works properly on ranged attacks now
or more accurately the elite ones
i finally blew up enough dogs for Emperor to grant me the Not Even Close penance
Wait wat?
nice :D
It was bugged?
I had the worst time with the mutie penance on zealot back in the day
it used to count the entire gunner/reaper salvo as "one"
I must have killed hundreds of the damn things trying for it
The instructions were not clear at all
i had an okay time with it, thammer goes bonk
I think I got it by accident
so you'd be dodging like hundreds of attacks and only get 1 stack
Oh I had el hammerino, I just couldn’t get the damn thing to trigger when I killed the mutie
My fucking god
to be fair, it doesn't work like that anymore
thinking of joining the vet side
Imagine if second wind was bugged like that
xd
there's been worse bugs
like Exhilerating Takedown INCREASING the damage taken
> switches to vet
> all aurics spawn as no ammo drop
> reject vet, return to psykere
melee vet is still really strong in maelstroms
no ammo no problem, what else do i run survivalist for?
plus melee yeah
Melee? Ew
Yes
ironic considering Vet is one of the best melee classes :p
Sir, this is psyker chat
no ammo maelstrom as a gunker
There's peak-axe ogryn now
or you r scared
If we melee, we die
the reason i first started playing psyker is that with surge staff i could just press Skip on any shooter encounters, and get back to the fun part (melee) faster
this was before talent trees
considing my last match had a 5 wound psyker, I can tell UwU
Dis gus ting
You dont belong with the Shouties
lies and slander,
Martyr psyker 
go back to your dirty cave you shooty scum
Sir, gunker is an abomination
I only use legal staves
gunker is about to turn your face into an abomonation
to be fair, if you bring 3 wound curios but use them. Is it really a bad build? 🤔
They can try, but I have bubble
I read slaves and I was like wtf
I only use the lightning stave because it lets me play without ever aiming
yeah kinda
:p
true
accidentally played triple wound zealot without martyr a while back
Same
yeah...
Or martyr without wounds
"I'm so sorry"
did it still work? yeah but I'd rather have 200 toughness than 130
It was interesting
Zealot Momentum build without stam curios was "interesting"
Yes because you'd of likely never used them if you had meaningful hp, Stam, and toughness
You can do without with 3 Stam Regen tbh
But it's nowhere as comfy as running a stam curio
wish psyker had access to melee weapons so juiced that you never need to whip out your ranged
like evis XV
or psword
that implies they lived long enough for it to matter
I won't. +3 just further compliments kinetic deflection and psykers bonkers regen delay on stam
power staff pls
Evis 15 is trash
NO U
going into melee with 0% stam spooks me ;c
propaganda
Bruh its like the most underwhelming zealot weapon
Here lemme kill 4 enemies at a time and be lucky to tap a specialist
Imagine me intentionally fishing 0 Stam to proce desperation and all or nothing on my taxe
damage > stam true
True
all or nothing caxe sounds pretty juicy too
anyway force greatsword please
i need a big chopper
also more melee psyker support please
Dont worry i can be trusted with a melee blitz

exactly my thoughts
real
Me but with comet azur
Would actually be a sick ability tho, with the tradeoff that you cant move and get stunned shortly after
You can't even describe it as bad, that sounds good 
no
zero player stuns
this guy gets it
It literally is like a shitty illisi but ok
also
What's the current preferred dump stat on the VB staff?
Aight 
warp res
only aggro while netted
On an achlys with bm and spamming push attack + h1
Thank ya!
i want total immunity during mutie/dog/chaos spawn grabs except from the grabbers damage
For a moment I thought you were talking about the gun achlys and its bash 
😂
Lets be honest knowing fat shark coding you'd be able to tech out of the animation lock
I can't hear you over 52 flamers, 63 snipers, and 123 reapers
You forgot the gas bomber and now you're blind
im fine with dogs where they are since everything stops specifically targeting you besides flamers which push them off. muties grabs are super inconsistent if shit around the grab will instawop you or give you a free outing
and chaos spawn grabs shouldnt damage you over fire that shit is stupid
If chaos spawn grabs get to burn me in fire, I at least want the chaos spawn to have a roasting marshmellows animation
also zealots with until death shouldnt take corruption damage during it, especially during a grab or disable where theres nothing they can except lose wounds and die faster than if they didnt have invulnerabilty to regular damage
Zealots should be immune to corruption damage, would be neat
its a server issue not necessarily on your end. you can try deleting the appdata\roaming\fatshark\darktide folder for a fuller verrify which will get rid of extra mod data and all your saved settings. It helped me for a few sessions before it came back again. I had to wait for an update which basically acts as a server reset
for me it went past voice and text chat and stopped me from logging in at all after a few sessions, and even a vpn didnt work half the time
Yeah I could probably purge the relevant registry values as well.
it popped up after adding a mod, theres comments complaining about it on multiple mods in nexusmods but I dont think theres a particular cause
especially when it stays even after not running mods on a clean drive
It's a third party server issue and nothing you do can fix it
ye i hate that too
nope
wrong
WRONG
theyre not supposed to target you while dogged
they issue happens if they target you then you get dogged they dont target someone else
Not an excuse, you disappointment.
100% a bug and needs to be fixed
Is it normal Warp Unbound doesn't work sometimes
When SG stops, brief moment where you can explode even with WU, yes
fat shark programming
Is that an intended feature
no
yeah they have an extremely hard time switching targets in general. lot of the time they should but they continue shooting at a wall


I literally had 0 dcs or issues with the game servers until I modded it.
This is obviously intended to some degree
As in last 3 weeks after I modded the game it started randomly dcing me and the chat not working all of a sudden.
0 issues from launch until now
Snipers are really annoying with how they insta swap targets
I'm talking about the current chat issue
Same with trappers and the like
If you have chat issues restart your game
Yeah that's fair, if it's a third party issue that everyone is experiencing.
idk
This has nothing to do with mods and everything to do with server issues coming and going because Fatshark programming
why the fuck is it so common to get immediently after modding though
I had more lag and issues before installing mods 
I only have scoreboard and healthbars, those two shouldn't really do much with the game either.
Guessing scoreboard just reads from memory and healthbars just enables a feature that is already present in the game.
I mean, even on heavily modded setups you probably won't have anything that would actually affect your connection. You might install something that lags your game tho, lol.
You can see here that the Vivox servers are experiencing issues (Unity chat server): https://status.unity.com/
Unity Services's status page provides information on the current status and incident history of Unity Services.
why the hell do you need to go into a config file to disable the juicy stuff like annoying crash reports on every attempt to close the game
Crash reports are a good thing tho
I am hitting the quit game button, I am alt f4ing. its insists that my game has run into an unexpected error
does the game expect me to play it forever
Is that a thing?
I.... I don't think crash reports when hitting quit game are normal
I always just delete the executables
Used to get them, i think it was a mod trying to save something and crashing along the way
I've never had a crash report pop up when quitting the game. If that happened I'd go sniffing for mod updates.
I ran unmodded for like a year after launch and got them, I forget if I had them in the invite beta. I know 1 other friend who had it with a rig on the other end of the spectrum from mine.
actually I remember the first few crash reports I actually typed into the window with, I totally had this issue in the closed beta
People who crash constantly be like:
Nah dude i've just fixed all of the critical errors myself
mega gay zone
Keep gargling on the schlong of big mod update my man
i am free i am independent
i am crashing
I am out of memory
I am buffer overrun detected would you like to upload a crash report?
at least when I get a memory error it doesnt send a crash report
Amusingly my #1 source of errors is somehow steam
Just program your own Steam
Sometimes steam gets into a tiff because i have all of my stuff spread across several drives and it stops being able to find the config file

i have now levelled up all classes
i don’t know which i prefer
i like them all
the hardest to level was psyker and ogryn
play all
true and real
finish all weeklies 
i want to get the penances
flippin’ hell
but there’s some convoluted penances
as a lvl 650 Vet, I think Vet is pretty cool UwU
owo
QuQ
vet was my first class so i might just chill on that for a bit
vet has the best talents
i went from ogryn (last class i levelled) to chilling on vet and the size and speed was the craziest trip
i was so small and super super quick
when i play ogryn and i hear the trapper sound just after i press dodge
yike
ah yes its over 👔
BIG MAN NEED BIG PICKUP
pubs will rather let you die than run into yellow smoke to pick you up 
i do miss rp’ing Ogryn and people calling me big man
when you only play pubs because you has no frens 🥲
pubs = real gaming that reflects actual powerscale of things
do you really want to play darktide with irl friends though 
if you pub, you cleanse your soul of sin by penance
destroys friendships immediately
make friends here 

how can i not use brain rupture to normal mob ? it seem to mostly target normal mob when there a elite in horde.
Honestly not a clue, i just try my best to aim precisely for the head
brain burst is auto aim
you dont need to aim it
rmb locks to a target
err
lmb locks
rmb precharges
The perk that burns enemies after you BB them could help you clear the horde
or the push ability to drop them off their legs
I think that's just on elite kill now
it doesnt burn after BB
it used to be
ye after you kill elites
oh right
well i guess its still kind of useful in that situation if you do hit elite?
yeah it's pretty good
It’s a great perk, bb just isn’t relevant to it
in particular with uncanny strike because it lets the soulblaze actually do damage to crushers which is cool
weapons that have it at least
uh what does uncanny strike do again?
armor piercing
Ah right
Don’t use BB on stuff in hordes, just kill everything. BB is for nailing specialists that are moving out of view or clearing gunners when you have a short range staff/shotgun. If you’re fighting a mixed horde you want to use your staff/melee
Did soulblaze always trigger Kinetic Flayer?
I mean, any damage from you can
I didn't either, but I have video evidence that it does now
I'm grabbed, there's no other psykers on the team, and another chaos spawn is burning
Flayer procs and the only damage that could've done it was soulblaze
were you using inferno?
how is warp splitting on the voidstrike staff?
good
Nope
broken how? if it’s not displaying a chat channel (mourning star, strike team) then that’s not a VPN, it’s a weird way the game handles the game channels
if you’re in game, you can’t fix it

I'm in class atm but I'll post the clip when I get home
@strong gulch n i were just talking about that a minute ago further up
according to them, yes
soulblaze DOT is the only DOT that can proc KF
I guess I just never noticed since it was infinitely more likely to proc on a random poxxer
with the change
Flayer buffs are so fucking kino
now it won’t !
they’re good
still shit
but they’re nice
KF needs a 10 second cooldown and the ability to hold 2 or 3 charges
Agree
Agree
still mad that psyker was buffed in all ways except the ones i wanted
grgrgggggrrrrr
that is not what i want
exactly
i’m talking pre psyker’s tree rework as a whole
aktually some languages are perfectly functional like that
Th t's wh th s d ngl sh
No the chat was broken the whole day.
Now it's back.
Something to do with darktide server.
Surge right click build is so comfy to play even with 200+ ping.
Just auto aim 
hit their brain from inside so that they become dumb
Hallo spark 'eads, Dwarf wishes you all a good day, and if a good day is not had I will give you an Ogryn™️ hug
❤️
is it wrong to use kinetic flayer solely because the little RNG pops give me a flood of endorphins?
Thank you, Large Associate
kinetic flayer is ok
It's really strong now.
I think kinetic flayer is funny, so that makes it good
Only targetting elites and specials is huge.
^ this is true as well
i actually like it, but i think the main reason to use it is because the random bb is satisfying to me
BB is generally the best option if you want psykinetic aura and flayer is pretty funny
it's not a ton of damage but it's enough that it's hard to call it a waste
I'm still on the side of this change just lifting it up from entirely unusably bad to actually does something now
i put it on builds where i'm not going assail, i don't like smite personally
smite has issues
It's an enabler for PC.
smite has undeniable crowd control but half the time your team will just bolt past everything

using your melee weapon is significantly better than pulling out smite 95% of the time
or heaven forbid you use your staff
@fiery wigeon agreed
that's why i might as well just toss bb with kf on that build instead
if i'm not going assail
assail is the best blitz at actually doing things as a blitz but it blocks off psykinetic so it becomes the worst option
getting the vet shout cooldown to the point where they're giving perma gold toughness during combat is more important to me than being able to press G and have it do things
unfortunately
the team bonus is massive, that is true
not taking psykinetic feels like the same level of heresy as not taking field improv to me
Field improv isn't necessary 95% of the time.
You get one use out of it, on average, per mission, because teammates don't give you their crates.
field improv applies to all crates regardless of who uses them
Field improv a point I can’t afford
Since when?
Give us 35 points.
I dont recall it doing that.

Since always actually.
Damn, I might just be dumb, then.
always
Oops.
Only if all point taxes are obliterated.
Thats the only way I could ever agree to that.
building every tree so you can zigzag left and right like on the psyker tree would be funny
i wish i knew what all the stims actually do
i have no clue besides healing stim and the fact that one of them gives ability cooldown
dont remember which one
Concentration, the lemonade.
Celerity is the blue raspberry drink, makes you attack faster and increases stamina regeneration.
Combat is just meth.
You know what meth does.
I can't seem to get the vraks autoguns to work for me as well as the recon lasgun and idk what I'm doing wrong
Vraks autoguns? You mean the vigilants?
Can't say much on those, but I can help with recons a bit.
Psyker wants the brown one, I forget what model they renamed it to (mk15? I think?), because it gets cleave, and you can basically keep scriers at 0% peril until your mag is empty.
It makes for decent mixed horde clear, if you don't hit maulers/crushers.
Nah I figured it out I kept bum rushing hordes without a loaded mag
The only issue with doing this is that this model of recon is very ammo hungry, so you'll have to be a little sparing.
Lol
I see.
What does this mean? 😭
mmm, blue raspberry. inject in my veins.
lemonade boosts the speed in which you can use combat abilities, duh
very intuitive
How do you guys use the duellist sword ? I mean, i want to get coz it’s so elegant.
But every time i use it i m not confident and can’t use it to its full potential.
I mean, force sword is so easier to me. Any advices ?
It's for special removal, tbh. Pair it with something like a Voidstrike or Purgatus if you mean how to employ it.
As long as you already have a good crowd control option in your loadout, the sword is mainly for moving fast, dodging well, and picking off the odd high health/armor target
What is special ? And yes i use a purgatus build
Yeah the dodge on it is also quite absurd
It pairs well with purg because purg does mad stagger.
Stagger, poke the special in the head, repeat is nearly unbeatable.
I never use the special, but it can be good for pushing a rager away
Thx
definitely use the IV, the strong attacks are OP
Oh thanks
Special is the quick poke from your special action bind. It builds uncanny on hit and stuns almost everything. Definitely helps either crushers, ragers, and muties
I thought the heavy thrust of the V was more powerful
not using ds4 h2 is a fucking crime
HSHS is ds2
Yeah, the special on ds4 is a dps loss
Only use it when you run out of dodges and see the crusher overhead raining down
what's the best gunker build?
the one you like the most
god i wish staff boss damage didn't suck so much
hey guys, while using Empyric Resolve, should i use 2 hp + 1 tough curio?
or all hp?
use what is comfortable
Only trauma and void suck at boss damage.
a lot of people run 1 stam 1 hp 1 toughness
not sure what comfortable even looks like, i get smacked and already lose HP
surge also kinda sucks tbh
With warp flurry and nexus it's very decent.
About 1k damage per cast.
And super fast cast.
and burga is serviceable but nothing compared to laspistol
hey Kat, so if i run 1 hp, 1 toughness, 1 stam, what perks should i be running?
currently all of them have CDR, 5% hp, and resist
I go 2 toughness 1 hp personally, as long as you have ways to gain toughness back fairly quickly despite the penalty
how do you deal with grim runs? does 2 grims take up an entire wound?
Basically, you could have a talisman ready with grim corruption resistance for when you play missions with grims
quickplay antics..hard to prepare lol
Grim resist my beloved.
i can't tell you what you should run because it is not objective, but i can tell you what i run, which is 2x gunner 2x sniper 2x corruption resist and 3x 5% toughness
Or use it permanently or prepare to suffer
this gets you solid gunner resist and some leeway with bursters/snipers
meaning you won't instantly die on 1 wound when sniped or bursted, and you won't sit at 1 hp after
it should
health also helps
you can give my setup a try and see how it feels
I liked bistol, double barrel, recon and thought laspistol was ok
But I don’t actually get what is supposed to happen with laspistol
thats actually what im about to do
@radiant frigate would you mind if i shoot you a DM and work out some fine tuning?
recon, laspistol and infantry autoguns would be my non-staff picks
go ahead
How do people feel about tox flamer resist?
Does it work against the fire and not just the boot now?
this was the last time i tested it. idk if it has been changed
that was almost a year ago though
interesting how bomber worked but flamer res didn't
last i checked it works on both types
it's possible they would've updated the flamers when they made them explode
actually does flamer res affect the explosion?
I’m tempted to start taking sniper/gunner/tox
I think gunner resist is good, sniper is ok (depending how often you get sniped, usually its avoidable) and flame resist meh
it does hurty
Flame resist in auric feels very good because often lake of fire
If it works
If it doesn’t I don’t give a f
I use it after I build up uncanny.
H1, special, H1, special, heavies after.
i would just have enough sniper res so it doesn't 2 shot you from full hp
getting one shot immediately after a res
pain
I like taking one sniper resist because it helps a lot
just dont get hit by snipers 
I'm not good like you.
So many times you’re stuck in a mob and red beam comin
so tru so tru
And it’s like yeah usually I dodge it but sometimes pain
Or worst is counter sniping but there are two snipers on top of each other and the second one gets you
yeeeah, maybe its best in shock troop gauntlet or poor ventilation sniper modifiers
probably be extra useful then
Yes
or if you're doing an objective
Having a dozen laser beams while running purg is pure pain
has anyone been shot by a maelstrom buffed sniper before? is that a thing?
Green sniper? Yes
i actually don't know if that affects their damage
I don’t think so either
has anyone gotten the numbers for green enemies?
I had one point blank me after it spawned 😂
i have no clue and creature spawner doesn't spawn green stuff
i also briefly ran gunner flamer bomber
right after the fire changes
where it just became a different flavor of instakill juice
just tried out a gun psyker (recon las) with assail, and telekine shield, going down the right side of the tree, and oh man is it a blast
cycling between las gun/assail is so much fun
Hopefully you have a Anti-crusher option
pokey sword 😉
+20% str blessing on the duelling sword is usually enough to 1/2 hit most carapace enemies
What the hell 
😮
Level 380 Psyker
Not the real Unsanctioned.
You also got renamed to X?
What did Elon pay for you?
Would like to try using guns, but Beloved keeps taking them away from me...Except the revolver. Beloved wants me to keep it for home defense
This is why it’s important to be sanctioned, mfers just steal yo name
Emprah don’t protect the trademarks of the unsanctioned 
im changing my name to Unsanctioned Harold
what is this ui mod 👀
2D Inventory with Name it (For custom weapon names) iirc
thanks, I'm sick of scrolling through my 200 weapons
Helps a lot when you have a big pile of weapons to sort through
I had to do a double take on that one staff. Glad to know it didn’t say what I thought it said
was it holy cooker
Yes 😆
When you actually skim through it....Yeah I can 100% see why the double take is needed
@lethal lagoon is going to change to unsanctioned atlas
spooky dagger drip
tbh that looks sick
I love it
sure
3/4 
vc 69
VC 69!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, Agent finally got the best Psyker headgear? He was holding out for a while
he came back and went afk again
@lethal lagoon bbg come back
to me
WHy don't you play left click build and I play right click.
See who does more damage. 
I' here
heheheheheheehehhehehehehehehehehehehehehee

yes ill be joining my bbg now
Take care tren.
Don't be I was tryharding.
Cos you ran forward like a mong.
So I had to surgemaxxing.
Surging all over the place.
do i need to run forward much less?
but fr fr how do you do so much warpfire damage
i jump shot a lot
Then Idk I Just play surge a lot.
So I know when it'd crit or not.
I can sort of tell.
this man can feel the RNG
compared to him? we are nothing
Psykers, what determines things violently exploding when hitting them with surge staff?
Does it have to be a crit?
Is it a measure of overkill damage?
Idk how it works, I just like popping heretics like zits.
Crticial hit kills
As far as I know thats the only factor for it
Scrier's + Surge + Warp Nexus + Crit perk + Crit node + Prescience + True Aim
Zapmaxxing
"If I see a white number, I'm killing myself"
So you can rmb after the duration of surge?
Yup
Only if you die
There's still room to blow up, I mainly use the primary on it and that got me blown up with a WU timer just activating. only happened once yesterday though
what's the dump stat on mk4 duelling sword? cleave targets? mk 6 knife is feeling stronger than mk 4 sword so far which feels wrong lol
It’s cleave
pen on the one im using is only at 70% which could be an issue for breakpoints vs. crushers/maulers I suppose
mobility or cleave
Blitz?
I’m trying to get back into playing the Surge staff, but I feel like I’m lacking in something after playing with Blazing Trauma for so long
I honestly take assail. secondary on surge gives you a little bit of the wiggle room that smite would give when you start getting cornered, otherwise you kinda need a faster way of dealing with huge gunner and shooter squads and that's what assail do.
I think extra crit ontop of true aim and warp nexus combined is overkill though
@broken carbon @fresh reef The burn DOT from infurnus can proc KF. The SB and bleed DOTS don't. IDK why that is.
Did it always function like that? Did fatshark just forget that psyker can put infurnus on guns? Is this a new interaction but most of didn't notice because KF has been mega bad? lol
i'm assuming it's an oversight and infernus being the only source of burn damage psyker has
interesting that bleed doesn't do that
Right? Gotta be.
somewhat easily accessible through knife
I'm assuming, but the burn DOT KF interation has oversight written all over it.
we've had recon infernus forever though
that's been kinda shit too though
everyone was running columnus auto instead of recon until crafting update
not me
imagine not being a zip zap zoopy movement speed gun psyker
Lots were running the recon before crafting update. It was buffed before that.
i was running almost exclusively staff until recently (in terms of ranged weapons)
recon goes in phases of being dogshit and then broken for 1 patch.
I can't wait to see it become dogshit next patch
However, I agree it is still a relatively recent change.
In terms of people running recon.
Recon isn't even that broken
Recon is cool but it's not as cool as bistol.
i remember it being a popular pick for vet on the release of patch 13, and then one update later they gutted the crit chains and those builds died
it'll die again, just watch
Watch this bistol shot doggo in mid air

I've seen volley fire bistol vet.
how dogshit of an idea would it be to take literally every grenade node on vet?
not that much
wha
grenade spam is definitely a thing you can do with vet iirc
that’s so weird
so soul blaze cannot proc KF
unless you use smokes 
Yeah krak grenade spam in monsters maelstrom is OP
yeah but i mean literally all of the nade nodes
but infernus burn can??
You just kill all the monsters in 2 or 3 kraks.
like twinned blast and such
si, yes
how far could i take it before it just becomes dogshit?
take it for the memes
i'll take all the nade nodes
even the bad ones
I feel like they can combine twinned blast and grenade upgrade.
Also supply upgrade and chance to replenish 5% grenade on elite kills.
make twinned blast make grenades explode twice but have a longer delay
How bloated do you want your tree?
Vet: yes
timing challenge
More nodes
all the nodes, all the time
I am already seeing the problem
this is a lot of points
but i gotta commit to the theme!
smoke grenade build
amazing for killing teammate fps
twinned blast smoke grenade 
I did this when grinding the newer penances, it was so fucking funny
I really wish the % chance of nade on elite kill actually gave me nades when I wasn't running smokes though
I was thinking of doing an agile engagement and weap spec kind of build but uh
no this tree actually sucks, it eats too many points
full grenade spam is too meme
guess we're doing focus target
I mean don't go for the aura or wep spec

yeah but that's lame
no u
i guess i gotta take the boring keystone
Wep spec is the boring keystone 
just dont take a keystone lol

This is how I'd path it
you could remove the keystone and either iron will and/or close quarters to reach the bottom left side for the extra ammo and a talent just below it
Smoke nade is op
does bistol get suppressed easily?
can't remember, probably does since bolter do but all I remember is the sway/recoil being annoying
No you are invincible with bistol.

@split lance
UnsanctionedHarold are you winning son?
hey kat
how is toughness regen speed for psyker? i hear a lot of mixed things
hey doublecough
the curio perk? imo garbage
No :(
@radiant frigate i've always ran it just out of habit almost, but it seems like relying on coherency toughness isn't that great anyways

it's super useful imo
mediocre imo
It helps against chip damage and shooters
If you're not engaged in melee and have the coherency radius node that makes it wider, then it can be good. It's situational and/or play style dependent.
pyker got a lot of ways to regen toughness but not a lot of toughness. It's definitely nice if you have to forgo a few toughness regen talents though
I don't even have the coherency radius, but if you're going to take it you want it on all 3
yeah, i've always put it on all three curios on just about any character lol. i've been looking into swapping for stacking 3 of something else maybe like stam regen or ability cd
hurt a lot by how much toughness gain isn't coherency regen.
Somewhat saved by just the fact that 30% is a big number, and it also reduces the delay.
I don't really take it anymore
Psyker doesn't need stam regen at all imo
ability cd is... eh. If you want max damage, sure, but it's really not that helpful imo.
funny with warp unbound scriers
Putting toegether a build where I basically spam Voidstrike right clicks cause I'm about done with the final 100 mission Psyker penance and havent used it much. Also havent used Scriers much so I'm trying to mix the two together. I've got pretty much constant uptime with Scriers with this guy and running warp flurry and surge on the staff, any tips? Would transfer peril on the staff be a good move? Thinking maybe going down the assail side for warp splitting might be a good choice as well.
yeah, i've kind of gone back and forth with this and really haven't come up with anything that would be better in place of the 30% toughness regen/delay
If you're used to the toughness regen speed, you might like switching to gunner resist. That only covers dreg and scab gunners and reapers tho.
i actually do take 2 gunner, 1 sniper because i'm a turd that gets out of position and shot sometimes
You want the toughness regen on psyker because psyker is a lot more survivable if you get that toughness bar maxing out every hit. They don't have the durability to take many shots without max toughness.
I take one of each gunner, bomber, sniper, flamer, and corruption resist in that priority
2 gunner is good though
does flamer resist actually work now?
yep
incredible
historically getting caught in the open by gunners or shot by a sniper when i'm bogged down and can't dodge is what downs me most
both flamers, even though it says tox flamers
Any more than 1 of the same resist type gives strongly diminishing returns btw, just so you know
does it work on explosions from them?
Significantly underrated but like with any curio perk, totally shippable
It's not that strong of a diminishing return imo
definitely does in my experience, This guide helped https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3318538305
Agreed. Second one is 16% that's fine.
It's multiplicative, but it's still significant even at 3x
If you really hate a single enemy type, taking 3x can be worth it
From the guide @runic juniper has also read, it seems
12.6% on the last one
it's not even really diminishing if you think of it as ehp gains. The number reduced is diminishing but your effective hp/toughness against that source is a linear gain
yeh
yeah, the 2x gunners on every character for me is because i hate them personally
Which is the wrong way to think about it imo
wrong place, wrong time and they'll staggerlock me to death
The actual hp saved diminishes with each perk, and that's what matters
I disagree
every 20% gunner curio is a 25% effective hp/toughness gain per perk, regardless of how much you stack it
Yeh
Yes but the second and third ones save you 20% less HP taken each.
but i'm still 25% more tanky against gunners per perk
it's not diminishing percentage-wise
and in terms of how long i'd live against them, the gains are the same
It's more about what kills you personally the most, or puts you in the ground enough you get chipped to death, anyway.
If I could only have shooter res
poxburster res when?
If shooter res was a thing nobody would run anything else lmao
true
I feel like that's a sign of a problem 
It's just the most common enemy type, not really a problem
where is my groaner resist
I don't think so, it's just that it would then cover a huge amount of enemies
I mean I was only talking about basic shooter res
Me too haha
but yes, it is indeed a problem when basic shooters are more threatening than the elites
i need resistance against the random individual poxwalker that knifes me in the back randomly
well yes
Real.
People shit on the guard so much for being weak but when we have to tussle with 15-20 lasguns they're suddenly not so harmless anymore 
It's just lore-accurate
definitely wish they had brighter eyes. I can catch a fucking skaven in the dark more easily than a dreg shooter in a lightened up area in the hive
When do I get to have a hallway full of las to destroy the heretics? 😔
You mean you can't differentiate between brown and brown?
Bring a 4-man vet team with recon las 👀
Not enough las
And welding goggles IRL
or grey and grey
They need more greeny is what i mean
You'd think Chaos would have a little more flair
This is why we should've been fighting a Khorne cult. Red is such a distinguishable color.
Agreed
I'm also red-green colorblind IRL so it's not super easy for me on the desert maps
Everything kinda just blends together
@gleaming orchid the best part of a coop game is the other people and the worst part of a coop game is the other people
Average pug behavior, I feel ya man
time to scream into the void
plz don't
played three damnation back to back and i was the last to die in all of them
Wait that doesn't work anymore since I changed my name
i was 4/5 on the auric maelstrom survivor penance and a teammate ran up and double swung on a barrel and launched me to my death

i feel like i'm not a bad player and i try to get everyone to play as a team
Generally the goal is to not die 😂
this is the saddest story ever
thanks bud
If you’re overall playing well and still getting spanked it’s a DPS problem
Protip: Don't lose and you'll win
why are the barrels 'tard magnets
gotta clear barrels if going for auric storm survivor
i think it's a teammate problem i won't lie
i'm playing well
I played incredibly careful around them
That quell cancel bind I found yesterday works with assail too btw, doesn't look like much but it is so nifty when there's a million shotgunners in your face
Even more so for master of the golden storm 😂
can never trust a teammate near a barrel
"teammate next to barrel, must shoot" 
yeah, i thought i was good. it was a spot i had no idea you could even fall off the map, it was a tiny hole lol
they will betray you
a little corner
Honestly I really enjoyed going for the survivor stuff, added a roguelike feel
too bad so many people just cheese it
But the consequences are generally pretty dire for teams 😂
i was upset at the time but i'm ok with trying again. it just took me a minute to stop cursing that guy's name
i got mine legit a couple weeks ago, although i avoided certain maelstroms for it
i do like going for it still
hate burster maelstroms
I’m all in on the scab maelstroms 😂
burster spam is harder than veg for me because of the sheer annoyance i feel when i have to wait for the game to stop spamming then
monstrous specials is at least kind of fun to deal with
also true
Me every time i lose
@clear heath until they blast you off a ledge
had that happen with the monster specials too lol
i'm a cursed person
pogryn tackle and burgle explosion moment
or cspawn throw
i guess they all fling you off the map
but 2 of those are at least predictable and you know where you'll be tossed
gotta actually dodge the cspawn or you could end up anywhere
i think the first time i failed the auric survivor penance it was a cspawn, grabbed me and then said "here ya go" and tossed me off
happened to my friend who was like 3/5 recently too
cspawn doing the classic illegal move
VERY uncool
It's true, teammates can carry you and it's their issue if they don't 
i would have turned things around if they had just gotten me up
me leveling my 14 vet in heresy when the rest of the team wipes to a monster
we finally got a win boys and girls
i knew we could do it
time to end some more heretics all over again
When you go down far away from your team and they are not there to pick you up in 15s 
which mod fixes DD stacks not showing?
My god. The recon lasergun works well for psyker, too
XII gaming
🤯 no more staff
Why is the train mission such a magnet for people not ready for Auric?
I played one round with the XIV by mistake, that shit cleaves through everything
It be fast
Yeah the XII. Though on vet I use the VIc and it's a monster, too
Lasergun + assail = nonstop carnage
I always use the XII since it shoots the fastest, that means my brain makes more dopamine

thanks!
Oh right. Finding the buff is a little difficult. I forget which ones need to be prioritized; but if you search for "psyker" at the top of the buff hud improvements window they should be easy enough to find.
that too
psyker player I'm begging you please there are 12 shotgunners, 2 dreg gunners, and a reaper shooting me STOP FOCUSING THE RAGERS I CAN DEAL WITH THEM
sincerely, bonk the ogryn
can anyone please DM me their autohotkey script for surge staff quell?
wait yall are scripting surge staff quells?
ifykyk
No
Anyone doing that is a heretic

FS said they cool with it
I'ma need a citation on that claim
Good day! I need your help! I can’t find an official answer to this question. Are macros allowed in Darktide. I have problems with my hand and want to use a macro to auto click the left mouse button, is it allowed? I asked a few streamers and they said it’s allowed, but I still want to make sure. I want to use AutoHotkey
show me a citation that says any other types of macros are not allowed then
would still not recommend especially in a public lobby
If you want a macro for your m1, just use the full auto/keep swinging mods.
Otherwise, don't set up macros.
hedge is no longer an employee of FS
i would steer clear of scripting with an external application
I wouldn't
the stats are not
Warp res is the dump
eh
It's not and hasn't been since blaze away
since we can do blaze away on those now damage is useful
Hedge was ages ago though
If you have like 200k dockets you can probably get good stats from the armory
and by that I mean a perfect 60% on the dump at max
idk about a script but you can bind m1/ primary and quell to the same button without a mod. For a dedicated quell button, multibind mod can give you one.
It's not as fast as manual LMB quell, but it's also faster than just spamming the button.
