psyker-class

[flint pawn]

can you rephrase this in an understandable language

[nocturne dust]

no perfect timing or wildfire either, double ew

[weary crane]

Take penetration of the soul over the left one

[flint pawn]

really? that's surprising

I'll try it though

more crusher burning the better

[weary crane]

It's a crutch for psykers that cant edge

[flint pawn]

I can edge but I can also lag and die anyway :)

[strong gulch]

Purg peril gen is pretty low plus all of the other peril mitigation means you can't shriek as often.

[nocturne dust]

Wait no don't

[weary crane]

🤨

[nocturne dust]

Pots sucks, and ER isn't bad if you don't also stack peril gen red from other sources

You just don't quell with ER

and you can generally shriek all the time

[weary crane]

Pot doesnt suck imo

Works great for assail

[strong gulch]

Pots does suck. I know too man u people with it.

[nocturne dust]

[flint pawn]

well I'll try out all my options, no reason not to

I've survived auric maelstrom without talent points selected before so what's the worst that could happen

[strong gulch]

It's broken. Pots doesn't work. It's bugged.

[flint pawn]

I just play with a slightly worse build

[nocturne dust]

The only reason to take Pots is if you don't want ER

[spice veldt]

pots is only really going to benefit assail against flak though

[flint pawn]

that is a good reason

[spice veldt]

you're not going to assail reapers, so unyielding adms don't come into play

[weary crane]

Yeah ig

[spice veldt]

and you're not going to assail crushers, so carapace adms don't come into play

the only armour type that rending meaningfully helps assail with is flak

[weary crane]

ER is pointless

[spice veldt]

which is grantedly a good portion of enemies

[primal plume]

https://youtu.be/gK8zPkbt56k?si=eBzbzzYPjiZjoddJ&t=18

If they reworkd smite to work like this id be okay

[nocturne dust]

ER is literally the strongest node on the tree for staves

[strong gulch]

But if you don't want a lot of peril gen mitigation, take it over ER. lol

[flint pawn]

PLEASE

[lethal lagoon]

I want a hadoukin lightning punch instead

I was mid-faint when I saw "charged strike"

[strong gulch]

I use ER for everything except purg.

[lethal lagoon]

I thought they saw me spamming about it

[weary crane]

Just say you cant edge

[lethal lagoon]

And then I cried

[nocturne dust]

with the exception of maybe purg

[lethal lagoon]

ER makes edgeing better?

[nocturne dust]

Edging... doesn't play into it? Lmao

[spice veldt]

smite being turned into a blitz that can support melee would be very cool

[nocturne dust]

ER works for edging too bro

[lethal lagoon]

If ER gets in the way of your edging, that's an actual skill issue

[weary crane]

Oh wait

I got confused

[lethal lagoon]

Why would you get confused, get something else instead.

[weary crane]

I thought this was the anti-bust blessing

[lethal lagoon]

Smh

Oh lmao

[flint pawn]

battle meditation + shriek was such a throw

[nocturne dust]

Crystalline Will meta when

[lethal lagoon]

I still need to run a meme 3 wound build and just blow up constantly and see if I can make it to the next medicaid.

I'll unbind quell

[strong gulch]

Must have purple outfit

[lethal lagoon]

[nocturne dust]

I'm pretty sure you'll die without passive quelling

[lethal lagoon]

[nocturne dust]

Guy who said that sounds smart.

Must be handsome too.

[vagrant grove]

how does quell cancelling for assail work? im not sure if im just failing the timing or what

[clear heath]

hi arco
did you end up having to redo your potato settings with the update?

[primal plume]

They added an icon for sprinting too

just why lol

[lethal lagoon]

Adds icon for sprinting

[spice veldt]

i backed up my user settings config

[lethal lagoon]

Doesn't fix DD icon

[spice veldt]

i am a pro gamer

[clear heath]

nice

[weary crane]

Just never warp attack when at 100% peril

[clear heath]

me too

[lethal lagoon]

More like pro lamer

[spice veldt]

i'm turning you into a brick wall

[primal plume]

We already have a bug where too many icons bug the game out and starts hiding icons

[clear heath]

you can just change the version number from 2 to 3 to preserve your settings btw

[spice veldt]

you will make a nice piece of masonry

[weary crane]

You can shoot an assail at 99% and not bust

[primal plume]

why add more that are totally pointless

[spice veldt]

o

[lethal lagoon]

So you want me to be bricked up...

[nocturne dust]

[vagrant grove]

what?

[clear heath]

the only thing that gets fucked is if you had borderless set, it might reset your resolution, but that's 1 change

[vagrant grove]

im not talking about not blowing up, i mean the throwing assail faster by animation cancelling

[weary crane]

Oh

[flint pawn]

what is the burn intensity for purgatus' damage stat, I think I've asked this before but I'm stupid

[spice veldt]

presumably the "fire rate" of the direct damage

[weary crane]

Animation cancellers are low lifes

[spice veldt]

i've frame checked it and the numbers don't quite match up, but the "fire rate" does vary with damage% regardless

[flint pawn]

so it'd pulse faster if the damage stat is higher

[spice veldt]

ye

[flint pawn]

gotcha

[vagrant grove]

okay, thank you for your opinion

[lethal lagoon]

quell canceling is very clearly intentional

Weapon swap cancelling, not so much yeah

[spice veldt]

well, the intentionality of it is debated

[lethal lagoon]

[spice veldt]

what we have is a consequence of them buffing chain timings across the board

and not really touching them

i highly doubt that machine gun lmb bolt was in their mind

[lethal lagoon]

they did buff lmb to machine gun status for everyone

Though yeah you can still make it faster

[vast scroll]

i doubt it's intentional... but they have animation canceling in every game they make and never seem to remove it.... so it's hard to say they dislike it all that much

[lethal lagoon]

It's not as impactful as before

[spice veldt]

yeah some anim cancels is fine and a consequence of it being the better evil

i.e., more player control over some delays and whatnot

[lethal lagoon]

input eating is the greatest evil yes

[clear heath]

what's actually kinda cringe is people macroing it

[spice veldt]

the greatest evil is giving players control

[vast scroll]

without quell canceling the staves seem to kinda suck... wouldn't you be better off just using a reconm las and a dueling sword 99% of the time? lol

[lethal lagoon]

2 button macros are technically bannable, no?

[spice veldt]

not particularly

[clear heath]

I've heard that they are, idk

[weary crane]

Dont people macro boltgun spam? I cant seem to rapid fire by default

[clear heath]

I saw someone macro in one of my games

[spice veldt]

void, purg, and trauma suit pretty defined roles outside of guns
i don't use surge so i won't say anything about it

[strong gulch]

You can quell cancel assail by tapping quell more or less after the shard leaves your hand. Play with the timing to figure it out exactly.

[clear heath]

The dude who macro'd quell cancel lmb surge also had tag on lmb
so he would spam them across the horde and tag things every second

it was horrible

[vast scroll]

you can sprint cancel the plasma reload to cut the time in half also... /shrug

[spice veldt]

the lmb bolt serves as a straight-line long range if you need it, it has good stagger, and it suppresses reapers in two shots

the damage stats of it is incongruous with its stagger because a lot of it is baked into the finesse (crit builds cough), but it still has firm utility that make the bolt relevant to me besides the damage

[vast scroll]

i get that my man... but like... recon las go brrrr

[spice veldt]

yeah i see it

i'm just personally not fond of playing guns outside of vet, and i also don't play vet anymore (for now)

[flint pawn]

my favorite gun is purgatus and trauma

[spice veldt]

"i'm just"

wat da hell

no wait

that is proper grammer

[vast scroll]

yeah i get that, i dislike using a gun on my psyker also... just without animation canceling the staves seem so underwhelming is what i meant

[spice veldt]

i do think their damage stats could be tweaked

[flint pawn]

they take building to make shine no?

[spice veldt]

if they want to keep the stagger, I'd want to increase the damage per shot and lower the fire rate, but I'm not sure how that'll interact with chain timings

[flint pawn]

except for like surge, the other 3 staves you have to build around to make really good yeah?

I guess Voidstrike is somewhat independent

[nocturne dust]

It's unclear. I've seen a post by a Fatshark employee that stated 'autohotkey is okay', but it was in reply to a single-button macro question. I can't find anything beyond that other than the terms of service which also ban mods

[vast scroll]

+damage, + stagger, make them pen a few enemies ala botl guns.... remove quell canceling... i'd be 100% for those changes

[spice veldt]

yeah voidstrike normally takes crit & surge so there's that

I think their stagger is plenty fine

all human enemies besides ragers are deterministically staggered by them, and they have stupid amounts of suppression

[vast scroll]

well i mean +stagger if you're going to reduce their attack speed, to even it out

so they keep the same net stagger

[spice veldt]

i think it's going to be practically the same unless you're constantly switching between targets with lmb bolt currently

i do not want the lmb bolt to knock enemies down

at all

just lightly staggering them is fine for me

[flint pawn]

nah let them knock enemies down so i have to struggle to hit them more

trust me it's a good idea

[spice veldt]

hgnhghnahghgnhgnhgng

[clear heath]

I'd be fine with things the way they are if they just didn't add surge to surge staff

giving it surge was wack

[spice veldt]

they saw the people meming about why surge wasn't on surge

now you can have surge on surge

[clear heath]

ok tbf i did too

[spice veldt]

waiter, may i please have surge with surge?

yes, you may have surge with surge

surge with surge

[clear heath]

but like, i didn't expect them to do that and also add the lmb talents

[flint pawn]

"ugh this surge with surge is so stupid"

[spice veldt]

it's also probably a "y not" moment

[flint pawn]

where is the 8th blessing 😠

[spice veldt]

they're keeping it for themselves, those god damn bastards

[tepid python]

i cant get into brain erupt grenade. feels slow and demanding when i could just dueling sword or flame or assail or something

[flint pawn]

where is my double rmb damage blessing

[flint pawn]

I take it mostly for kinetic flayer but sometimes being able to pop an unusually placed special is nice

also makes up for lacking ranged at times when using purgatus

[tepid python]

also doesnt kill a lot of noticable targets like mutants.

[flint pawn]

yeah they need to fix some of the damage outputs

why does brain rupture not one shot hounds.

[buoyant maple]

It does with enough peril I think

[flint pawn]

it does, with enough peril

you have to go out of your way for a node to make it do that

and I don't wanna get into the whole point of y'know

[buoyant maple]

The problem is more like
It’s kind of not enough damage against tougher enemies

[flint pawn]

"Why wouldn't you take that node"

but I feel like it not even being enough to pop a hound unboosted is kinda dumb

[buoyant maple]

And assail is mostly just better in more situations

[flint pawn]

hounds die to just about everything else

[prime elk]

Poor BB

[clear heath]

Brain rupture is mostly just for covering long range and armor when playing purg for me

[tepid python]

i feel this. moving back to assail tomorrow

[clear heath]

I'm hating assail now because flamers exist

the damn explosions

[flint pawn]

Emperor giveth (assail) and Emperor taketh away (Psykinetic's Aura)

[spice veldt]

flamer is the secret assail nerf

[buoyant maple]

Flamer nerfed a ton of weapons

[clear heath]

me accepting that i just don't have a blitz whenever i see flamers and bursters on an assail build

[buoyant maple]

Throwing knife hit from behind = fuse lit, no kill

[spice veldt]

it's peak

[flint pawn]

Seer's Presence and Psykinetic's Aura should switch places, the other two auras aren't real anyway

[buoyant maple]

I like 5% crit chance

[flint pawn]

no you don't, there is no such thing as 5% crit chance what are you talking about

[buoyant maple]

10% CDR is boring strong

[flint pawn]

you know what you're absolutely right

time to take Kinetic Presence so I can purgatus through Crushers 7.5%(?) faster

it is done

now I just need to max out this wr dump purgatus and I'm set

those crushers will regret their fateful encounter with me

[mystic pike]

[lethal lagoon]

You know, everytime someone was toxic to me in darktide, I hit tab, and saw they were last place on the scoreboard.

[flint pawn]

Against the naming or the shaming, I'm assuming the latter

[lethal lagoon]

[nocturne dust]

I've had more people be toxic to me in this Discord than the game

[patent jacinth]

Checks

[lethal lagoon]

Psykers are passionate about their opinions

[flint pawn]

I've clutched a game and then had someone tell me I didn't do it fast enough then leave the match

[latent mauve]

I throw the second someone shit talks if I am carrying no longer care

[flint pawn]

they were a zealot btw

bahhh spoil sport wasn't shaming anyone naming yes shaming no

[flint pawn]

I make sure to not do this

like I hate the knife zealots I typically run into but unless they're like a level 26 knife in auric for some reason I give everyone at least a chance

[mystic pike]

only time i'll shame a zealot is if there using loner

[flint pawn]

this is acceptable

I can't go further than carapace purgatus for now

[analog agate]

Dude loves his support psyker with the edgy take of bubble shield being the best and flaming shriek not being impactful to the team

[potent echo]

It doesn't work with the talents afaik

[potent echo]

Wow you actually watched it

[analog agate]

Took a look at his psyker builds from a few weeks ago. Cringe takes

I skipped around yeah

I mean he came in hot with the wrong opinion that dmg isn’t everything haha

I don’t know what that guy plays at though. Dmg is everything to skilled players on auric/mael. it isn’t if you aren’t as good

[ornate hamlet]

i can finally do malice missions

[placid crypt]

He can enjoy the hordes in his bubble, I guess

[potent echo]

DPS mainly matters during high intensity moments, if the team doesn't have the damage things are gonna cascade really badly

Although in darktide one person alone can bring enough damage to carry the team

[analog agate]

A lot of people value shield cause their positioning is bad. Which is why they like it over dps stuff. I get it. My answer is usually “get better” though and hopefully they see the light

[potent echo]

If you don't you need to rely on your team, which uhh..

[analog agate]

Ya, nowadays one person can carry the team

Unless it is the toughest maels. Those are just a bitch

[placid crypt]

Fatshark: Time to shadow buff ragers

[potent echo]

I would ask shield users how they deal with 3 bulwarks and 6 ragers in a mixed horde. Their answer is usually pray that someone else in their team carries uwu

[strong gulch]

I take bubble on train mission, but I also take purg and DS. But that's it.

Maybe I'll do some wall memes.

[flint pawn]

😭

[potent echo]

Purg can easily deal with 3 bulwarks and 6 ragers mixed horde so it's fine

Same with trauma

[tepid python]

how do you guys build neutron style brain blast, inferno

[potent echo]

The standard build

[tepid python]

and scrier ofc

[tepid python]

🥺

[strong gulch]

Do you mean EP BB?

[analog agate]

Yeah, what did you just ask

[potent echo]

#1158835513789272126 message

[zinc phoenix]

Trauma

[potent echo]

Pick your favourite aura and nodes

[nocturne dust]

Shriek won't deal with that either tho

[potent echo]

Yea trauma shield works

[analog agate]

That staff is the answer for nearly everything haha.

[potent echo]

You basically delete the horde and stagger the ragers

[nocturne dust]

Not without other stuff going on

[potent echo]

But it's definitely better than shield right

[nocturne dust]

and the stagger ain't going to do crap for you without other stuff going on

[strong gulch]

EP BB is a brain burst focused build that used purg/ infero as the easier ranged option.

Your standard purg build focues on purg and uses BB as the easier or more balanced option.

[nocturne dust]

In that situation, sure.

[potent echo]

If you clear you can also easily do FS push on bulwarks to open

[nocturne dust]

Shield isn't for melee anyway.

[potent echo]

Also you get sooo much space to bait bulwarks

[strong gulch]

EP BB vs Purg/ inferno builds

[clear heath]

wtf this shit is worse than quickplay rewards

i just want to spam I II VEG for ordo dockets

Remember the splitting modifier for VT2? Kill x and it turns into 2 xs. Or the trains of exploding rats??

[nocturne dust]

Darktide's director is wack anyway

[strong gulch]

true!!

[nocturne dust]

And also a modifier that spawns a (friendly?) daemonhost if a psyker perils themself, or a modifier where everything explodes on death, or a modifier where you have infinite grenades but no ammo

Stupid silly modifiers

[nocturne dust]

#psyker-class message

That is indeed the other stuff going on

[steel flame]

Boy, blaze away/Nexus inferno staff on a scriers build is freaking nuts

500 damage per tick from the staff plus 300 per tick from the soul blaze goes so hard

[proud mantle]

for scriers, does the 20% crit chance and 10% dmg linger as well once it ends or just the duration% dmg?

[steel flame]

%duration damage lingers but not the crit chance

[nocturne dust]

the crit does not linger

[steel flame]

also it has boss kill damage now with blaze away which is nuts to me

[zinc phoenix]

the massive toughness regen makes it better against melee than range tho

[nocturne dust]

No? Like, the toughness regen and TDR help but that's incomparable to being able to stand in front of an infinite amount of ranged/netters and not care

[steel flame]

this is how ive been building the inferno staff

[flint spear]

wildfire over PA w/ inferno

bruh

[nocturne dust]

They're using scrier's

without warp unbound

[lethal lagoon]

This feels like someone took one of my fingers and stretched it a little too much and now I have one weirdly long finger that doesn't work quite right.

[flint spear]

Oh yea that too no unbound 🤣

[nocturne dust]

and the 3-point dip for souldrinker

just take soulstealer if you need toughness

[steel flame]

dont need PA or warp unbound, i already have enough cooldown and i manage my peril well enough to keep scriers going as long as i want without hitting 100

[nocturne dust]

Even with ER that means you're doing an unholy amount of quelling

You're also stacking all that peril gen red which is multiplicative and kinda bad

[lethal lagoon]

Yes.

That's literally his talent tree

literally perfect.

[nocturne dust]

Being brutally honest, I hate the build.

[steel flame]

peril gen whatnow?

[nocturne dust]

peril generation reduction

from ER and the scrier's node and warp siphon

[steel flame]

and why is it bad pray tell, im actually curious

[nocturne dust]

It's diminishing returns, the main point of reducing peril gen is to reduce quelling times

and multiple sources of peril gen red are multiplicative

[steel flame]

i use it to manage scriers peril not reduce quelling, alot of the time im using m1 and saving charge shots for nuking stuff

[nocturne dust]

so if you have 20% and 40%, you don't get 60% (additive), you get 40% and 20% of 60% (52%)

[flint pawn]

I sacrifice myself for a bot for the last man downed and pray they win without me and will never know if they succeeded

[steel flame]

its just enough that i can keep scriers at bay for about 5 minutes

ive tried going w/out one of them but i lose the race agains scriers alot faster

[nocturne dust]

But you literally just said you're quelling to stay in Scrier's

[nocturne dust]

I've done the complete stacking of peril gen red, staying 5 minutes in Scrier's is way too much quelling even with it all.

[steel flame]

this is not for just sitting there quelling, this is for active combat with the m1

[nocturne dust]

It ends up being more inefficient and harming your overall damage by requiring you interrupt damage to quell

[flint spear]

Then why not take the unbound to utilize the post gaze buff

Instead you just stand there and quell

[steel flame]

It might just be im stubborn and can't stand that bad peril management is being rewarded

Call me old fashioned

[nocturne dust]

https://tenor.com/view/now-old-man-the-future-is-now-old-man-gif-9677657

[steel flame]

I can probably swap out wild fire for PA tho the m1 stacks a lot slower than charge and wildfire kick-starts stacking significantly. Never really felt the downtime much since scriers is really only on cooldown between big fights

Eh I'll look into but Im sure as shit not adding warp unbound, dont have the talent point for it anyway

[nocturne dust]

Bro I literally pointed out a couple of wasted talent points. Souldrinker is 3 of them.

[broken carbon]

souldrinker is bad because u already have toughness on warp kill

methinks

[mossy oyster]

crit chance toughness regen good

[ivory forge]

how to keep the disrupt destiny stack consistently?

t seems to random the farthest and most inconvinent enemies

[mossy oyster]

its hard to know if you have it consistently upkept in the first place

because fatshark buff icons moment

but if the enemy is in an undesirable place just look away for 5 seconds (iirc)

it'll pick another target

that’s mettle

[mossy oyster]

and here comes meow in 5 seconds going to say "erm I dont play soyker so"

💅

sighs all over the noobs

[broken carbon]

oh

i forgot about that part

crit chance is overrated on purg imo anyway

[mossy oyster]

if its on purg ya

[broken carbon]

and yes i know it’s not only on purg staff

but

[mossy oyster]

but im just talking about the talent itself

good

[mossy oyster]

purg probably gets the most use out of drinker unironically though

because blaze is all it does

[broken carbon]

most use but not most value

[verbal thistle]

but what does it do

like nothing

[steel flame]

I would have preferred we kept the old mettle and not gotten soul drink

[verbal thistle]

yippee

5 crit

[broken carbon]

inflicting more stacks of purg on crit is kind of useless

considering everything ur purging will die really fast

[mossy oyster]

it doesnt matter what has more value or use cause I dont use it

[broken carbon]

and anything that needs max stacks is not going to be dying any time soon

[mossy oyster]

and I dont use purge

anyway

you know im gunker main

(I still dont take souldrinker)

[broken carbon]

pawpraganda

[broken carbon]

700 damage purg crits

huh?

[steel flame]

Yep

The direct damage is disgusting

Shit soulblaze only doin about 200-300 per tick

[verbal thistle]

you poor soul

[mossy oyster]

embrace the gun

reject the staff

make everyone cope and call you a wannabe vet

Sadly psyker can’t auto load dbarrel

[mossy oyster]

scriers should make Dbarrel ignore bulwark shield

[patent jacinth]

Way better at using my beloved lawb though

[mossy oyster]

[steel flame]

What you never tested the direct damage of crits on the purg?

[mossy oyster]

im a dbarrel and agri revo enjoyer

for gunker funker

[patent jacinth]

Same

I love Agrivovler

[mossy oyster]

the funny cowboy revolver

casually 1 shotting a reaper or bulwark

[patent jacinth]

It’s just better

If you ignore that it’s worse

[mossy oyster]

scriers + warp splitting makes it basically

a fan the hammer zarona

thats less accurate

[potent echo]

Gunker is definitely more fun than vet

[nocturne dust]

I actually enjoy a kit that works cohesively over one that hobbles along, so I disagree

[potent echo]

Call me again when vet gets assail

Or exestance that works for melee

[nocturne dust]

You ain't playing gunker, you're playing assailker

[potent echo]

Yes

But assailker with gun is too long to type

Assgunker

Mmm

[mossy oyster]

your gun and melee should do more dmg than assail as gunker

(Challenge run)

[potent echo]

Gunsailker

[steel flame]

I've been loving bolt pistol gunker though I wish it's crit multiplier was better

[potent echo]

Perhaps

Boss damage could be better

I need to get a bit closer though now that dum dum got its range nerfed

[strong gulch]

This that one. I just took a screen shot when all of them were loaded. lmao

Fanning bait 😭

[broken carbon]

whuh

thats the agri revolver

[digital narwhal]

Gun Psyker is the ideal way of playing Psyker since you don’t blind your teammates with Force Staves

I love Gun Psyker

[broken carbon]

speedloader is agri revolver, zarona is single load

[digital narwhal]

Gun go bang

[broken carbon]

unles u mean

[digital narwhal]

Or something

[broken carbon]

those r both revolver

[broken carbon]

oh

wait

nvm

i see

sry

im dumb

i thought the zarona bullets were more pointed tbh

[paper harbor]

that look to me like either hollow or metaljacket

[strong gulch]

It's the zarona I swear. Here is a different pic when not all of the bullets are loaded yet.

[paper harbor]

because the tip is flat

zarona loaded indiviadual, agrip use speedloader

[broken carbon]

yah i realized that

i am just

dumb

[strong gulch]

You know what. Same a lot of the time.

[broken carbon]

that’s just standard ball i’m pretty sure

well

its actually probably just a lead tip

unjacketed

[paper harbor]

like this?

this one look similar

[solar nest]

what is the most offensive build for psyker related to spells at the moment?¿

[broken carbon]

yarp

[broken carbon]

yarp

[fiery wigeon]

voidstrike or purgatus

purg staff goes with venting and warp siphon

voidstrike can go with any combo of venting, scriers, destiny, and warp siphon

[upper sun]

@lethal lagoon@split lancehave you two been playing non stop for 10 hours?

[lethal lagoon]

Nah, we had a big break in the middle

[mystic pike]

ya know as much shit as i give you psykers i'd rather not abandon a teammate

@split lance this counts as your cardio for the month 😉

[digital narwhal]

Hi :)

[radiant frigate]

that sounds like sunder specifically and i didn't mean in terms of damage but rather survival

[quartz barn]

Does anyone have the staff lmb build?

[radiant frigate]

at least in my crushertide practice i eventually eat an overhead or have to start resorting to things other than the PA combo

not so with ds4

[quartz barn]

Saw someone running it earlier, but they had smite and shriek without cf, yet still broke 1m dmg

[nocturne dust]

I do like the sunder

[frozen loom]

is warp unbound still bugged with surge staff?

[nocturne dust]

No

but it is still bugged and you can blow up for a small amount of time when scrier's ends (because there's a gap before warp unbound starts or something)

[frozen loom]

oh that's what happened

and that's like a split second or something

[radiant frigate]

Yes

remedy: start blasting indiscriminately after SG ends

[frozen loom]

sounds like a plan

[ripe obsidian]

I don't know what happened to me today. I played like 3-4 matches and they were some of the worst I have ever done. Down 4 times in one, blow myself up 2 times in another, missing attacks, mistiming dodges. Jeez.

[nocturne dust]

check your graphical settings

[ripe obsidian]

I thought I adjusted them back to what they were before the patch. My framerate is somewhat worse, though

[heavy bane]

how good is voidStrike and does anyone have a good build for it ?, I tried all the other staves that's the remaining one... on an unrelated note what's your guys fav staff I think mine might be VoidBlast

[ripe obsidian]

Voidstrike is good. Can't give you my build right now, but if you remind me in like 8 hours. Voidstrike is also my favorite.

[nocturne dust]

All staves are very strong right now. Voidstrike is the weakest of them, but that's like saying "I'm the poorest billionaire", it's still very good.

[heavy bane]

I think I saw people say electro is the strongest but I can't vibe with it that much it feels like Voidblast and Inferno are the strongest, at least at my level

[heavy bane]

I mean psykers do deserve something as the trade off for being that squishy

[nocturne dust]

Electro is the strongest in a fully-realized build, it has a hard time performing without every piece of the puzzle.

[nocturne dust]

I don't disagree.

[heavy bane]

idk what that is I kinda just followed argents build on youtube the RMB one I have everything but the max curios at this point it's probably a skill issue

[restive slate]

Is it just me or is the Surge Surge LMB spam not as OP as people make it out to be?

[nocturne dust]

Some people swear so hard by it, but yes, I would agree it's not that absurd.

[restive slate]

I don't deny the damage, but spamming it into a horde doesn't really contribute much

[nocturne dust]

Definitely not for hordes, yes

[restive slate]

I like lmb spam on monstrosities

[jaunty plover]

Hey all, got a curio question about psyker from a mostly Vet/Zealot player. Also I ain't that good or knowledgeable about this game lol.

The pinned guide and most of the comments I've read her while using the search function recommend using Tougness Regen Speed, which isn't really a super popular choice for Zel/Vet because it only affects coherency regen and is disabled in melee, so my question is what makes it so good on psyker?

Is it a matter of psyker's base stats making it more impactful? The fact that 'good psyker gameplay' implies you're not supposed to get stuck in melee as much ?

[restive slate]

Psyker is the squishiest of the 4. Survival is by dodging, staggering and constant toughness regeneration from quelling

[plucky flax]

You just need to surge harder and spam f more.

[restive slate]

I do tend to get stuck in with my Scrier Psyker and Duelling Sword

[heavy bane]

O7

[nocturne dust]

Toughness regen speed is actually very controversial, and the reason it's not recommended on zel/vet is down to some zel/vet mains.

[radiant frigate]

i would very much not recommend toughness regen speed for the reasons you mentioned

[slate oasis]

I've never actually heard that toughness regen speed is good on psyker. psyker already regens huge amounts of toughness from doing basically anything, so the coherency regen boost isn't needed imo

[heavy bane]

Isn't it CDR+maxHP/toughness+Gunner resist if you suck at positioning

[nocturne dust]

imo, toughness regen speed is super useful strictly because it works when other forms of toughness regen don't. It's constant, it's always reliable, and it activates very quickly when you stack 3 of them for 90%.

[nocturne dust]

no, CDR is meh unless you want to absolutely maximize damage.

and HP/Toughness are okay, but I'd rather have something like sniper res.

[jaunty plover]

I ask because I've been playing psyker for penances and stuff, but only on regular Heresy/Damnation and I've been running Toughness Regen but it.. doesn't feel like it's doing much compared to when I wasn't running it? My survival/tankiness seems to come down to just lots of dodging and peril management

[quaint umbra]

hey guys ISO help, so im playing with new scrier gaze bla bla prevents oveloading bla bla... But Im sometimes exploding when im using staff or assails, before i reached 100% while lingering... IDK if thats bug or something im doin wrong, can any1 explain? Thanks!

[heavy bane]

it feels like I can avoid sniper cuz they have the laser but sometimes I just get surprise gunnered

[nocturne dust]

Your survival as any class will always come down to dodging well

[nocturne dust]

Until you run auric and get dumpstered by a snipe while trying to fight over a dozen ragers

[nocturne dust]

Warp Unbound is slightly bugged and you can implode when Scrier's ends for a very small duration

Warp Unbound for some reason has a delay before it actually prevents you from dying

[quaint umbra]

Okay, so I got to get this moment and avoid it. Thank you mate appriciate!

[nocturne dust]

Yeah, if you wait at the right moment you'll reliably avoid it.

[slate oasis]

I've tried gunner resist and never feel much of a difference. gunners either just give you a few scratches or you screw up and get melted

[radiant frigate]

it also does Absolutely Nothing when you need it most

[nocturne dust]

Neither will a measly 15% toughness or HP

[quaint umbra]

thats what i thought, time for psykanium and few explodes hahaha 😄 I hope soon they will fix that, since I lost 2 games becouse of this 😦

[radiant frigate]

15% extra toughness also means 15% extra toughness generation from everything else you do

whereas toughness regen speed means 0% regenerated when your team inevitably dies and leaves you alone

[nocturne dust]

Yeah, and?

[nocturne dust]

Keep them alive

If you want to solo, sure, dump toughness regen speed.

[radiant frigate]

sometimes it's between them and the emperor

[nocturne dust]

But most people don't do that.

[radiant frigate]

i am not saying i want to solo

but i am expecting that i may have to

[nocturne dust]

Also it helps against chip damage a lot

and not having that chip damage is probably a lot better when push comes to shove and you have to clutch

[radiant frigate]

chip damage from what, ranged?

[nocturne dust]

Melee too. Like, I don't understand why people don't get that it actually does help in melee, the 90% boost makes it activate super quickly

[radiant frigate]

because something being in melee with you disables it

if things continue to be in melee with you it will do nothing

[nocturne dust]

If they hit you.

[jaunty plover]

I suddenly feel less bad about being conflicted about my curio choices lol. Thanks for the help, y'all gave me stuff to think about.

[spice veldt]

it's disabled as long as an enemy is in your slot

it's not just being hit that disables toughness regen

[radiant frigate]

thank you

[topaz matrix]

With gun psyker at least, I dont see any reason not to go cdr, stam regen and a mix of sprint speed and block reduction

[nocturne dust]

Either I regularly bug out or this isn't true.

[radiant frigate]

if you want to continue being brittle, sure

[plucky flax]

Just play whatever you want

[topaz matrix]

If you have stam you will never take dmg unless you fuck up

[radiant frigate]

fucking up happens more often than you realize, and it doesn't necessarily have to be your fuckup

e.g. bursters

[jaunty plover]

Can't. The Penance Gods demand barrel kills.

[topaz matrix]

Again stam helps you position correctly vs them. I play exclusively pugs and get hit by someone shooting a burster maybe 1 out of 15 games

Thats as constantly front lining

[nocturne dust]

I mean you can get infinite blocking and pushing just with KD, curios not needed.

and yet psykers with KD die all the time. Stamina isn't that useful.

[topaz matrix]

The stam regen allows you to regen stam while sliding though

[nocturne dust]

You can do that anyway with Psyker if you're precise enough

[topaz matrix]

Idk exact breakpoints for each weapon but gaining stamina in a slide is huge for defense

[tidal siren]

Does BB still work for the Serial killer pennance?

[plucky flax]

Stam regen doesn't shorten the delay

Only the speed of stamina gain

[nocturne dust]

It's disabled by proximity, and the proximity isn't that large.

[spice veldt]

you'd think it'd be by proximity

but it relies on the slot system that's been borrowed over from vermintide

which is mostly practically similar to proximity but has some differences

[nocturne dust]

I'm not sure what you mean by slot system

[potent echo]

Latest dev blog

[nocturne dust]

but what I do know is dodging just a bit lets you immediately use that regen

[nocturne dust]

Which dev blog are you talking about

[spice veldt]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39ztpxnj9aA&t=17s
basically enemies in slots are able to attack you
its a system that prevents a million enemies from simultaneously attacking you (at least in melee), as far as I can tell

i didn't read or look past much and i don't think you need to know that much either

[frozen loom]

is autopistol bad for gunkers

[spice veldt]

the damage probably isn't as much as you'd like if you want to use it as your main weapon

[frozen loom]

i see. I guess I won't really invest into it. Just mucking around in lower diffs with one from brunt while i do melk stuff and grinding mastery

I forget, is uncanny strike or slaughterer better for a deflector force sword?

[nocturne dust]

uncanny for single target, slaughterer for horde

illissi wants slaughterer, deimos wants uncanny

[frozen loom]

dang, aight, 2 more swords.

[plucky flax]

Deflector is ultra based

[frozen loom]

oh wait, maybe just 1 more. I have a flawed one with 78 finesse. Should work fine with illisi

Bad for gunkers because it doesn't benefit from crits or crit damage or headshots

[nocturne dust]

Wtf why is it not in my steam announcements

[potent echo]

Which most of gunker is into those

[nocturne dust]

[potent echo]

Unless you play a non-gunker build that uses gun

Cope build with SAP might be brainburst EP

[timid storm]

What do you do on maelstrom when there's a line of gunners? Do you just hold block and wait for your team to take care of it for you? Because the moment you stop blocking, you're getting hit

[quartz barn]

Unless you have deflector theres no reason to block gunners

Just dodge/run to the side

[timid storm]

Well yeah I know that lol, deflector is implied here. The guy is suggesting only building stamina and block

[summer prairie]

not sure what stamina regen has to do with that though

[quartz barn]

No they dont? This was about stam regen

[summer prairie]

has anyone been able to blow up with Warp Unbound in the Psykhanium or is it just a latency related issue

[quartz barn]

Which is redundant with the high stam regen psykers already get tbh

i've heard awesome things about gunpsyker scriers gaze this patch. never played it before. i don't usually minmax too much but i kinda wanna try it for once. anyone have a build or guide to share?

[hollow jolt]

At least they post funny stuff occasionally

[ornate hamlet]

im running the square staff with brain popping
when it comes to bosses, i can use the staff more, but the brain popping deals more damage
what should i use..

[left hare]

i use deimos + vraks

Brain burst if u dont wanna run into 60 gunners and just slowly pick them off

although with scrier gaze + empathetic evasion u legit can stand still and shoot them all

Cos crits = dodge

ur anti armor is horrendous with the gun so just pull out the sword

[slate oasis]

why bb over assail? (I don't really play gunker)

[gritty geyser]

ult CDR node below BB lol

[left hare]

well if u go assail u either go mind in motion or malefic momentum

And u sacrifice cdr below bb

the goat node

[left hare]

no point going smite if ur not gonna go creeping flame so

go bb and just pop snipers

cos vraks is kinda mid at popping snipers at 60m

[hollow jolt]

But if you don't then you can smite enemies longers UwU

[left hare]

sorry i need psykinetic aura

i'm a junkie

so sorry

[slate oasis]

fatshark pls put psykinetic aura in the middle of the tree so every build can have it. ty

[left hare]

so basically just pop scriers gaze whenever u want to: horde clear better, shoot gunners, shoot elites, shoot monstros

the cd of the thing is like 10s

cdr node + unbound node

= just press the damn thing

the only thing that sucks is when u have no bullet 💀

Fml everyone stealing psyker ammo

[gilded raven]

Mind telling me the blessings and perks? And thanks a lot for helping!

[left hare]

Flak + unyield

dumdum deathspitter

deimos is uncanny + slaughterer

I dont rmbr perks

[gilded raven]

Thanks man. Appreciate it.

[left hare]

i think deimos is maniac unyield/flak

[gritty geyser]

I take maniac so I can one-shot the chargers with the Heavy 2 poke
but it's probably not 'optimal' 🤷‍♂️

[plucky flax]

Dw man I take maniac on almost all my melees

My deimos and ds4 with maniac carapace

[heavy bane]

won't u want anti crusher on demios ?

[sacred crane]

Carapace:

[hollow jolt]

classic

[cloud lichen]

hey guys just started making a psyker have all other classes maxed what kind of build path should go for in the tree while leveling any important nodes to take first

[marsh badger]

I think assail + battle meditation is the way to go for leveling. LMB for hordes RMB for specialists.

[cloud lichen]

on what weapon is that

[echo root]

Quelling gives toughness at the top both crit ones on the right. Assail with both upgrades can clear up til damnation alone.

[cloud lichen]

i assum lmb is left click mouse button

[marsh badger]

your weps should cover carapace and muties

and then assail for everything else

[jovial juniper]

Something like this for starters
Perilous Combustion is also an option

[cloud lichen]

what does soulblaze do im curious

and also do you guys know that staff build that shoots like a machine gun that looks fun

wanted to know what staff it was so i knew what to build

or level while leveling my psyker

[echo root]

It's just fire, but it's exclusive to Psyker so that you don't lose dps by having Zealot with flamethrower / any Lasgun user with the burn crit blessing.

[cloud lichen]

ahh got it

[echo root]

It caps at 15 or 16 when using Purgarus.

It can go up to 31 with Perilous Combustion (this is rare)

[nocturne dust]

Psyker version of burn

[jovial juniper]

Oh that sounds like Electrokinectic staff with the surge + M1 build

[echo root]

Elektro with a macro *

[nocturne dust]

Don't use it, it sucks (my opinion) 🤮

[cloud lichen]

ah i thought it was strong but maybe since im here

[echo root]

It doesn't shoot that fast normally, people are abusing a macro to shoot faster with 100% consistency

[jovial juniper]

It's broken
Ridiculous but broken

[cloud lichen]

you can point me to some fun but strong builds

[nocturne dust]

It's not broken.

Not anymore than other builds at least.

[cloud lichen]

ah i dont like builds that rely on that

had to stop using knife on my zealot for how much you had to left click haha

[nocturne dust]

It works fine without the macro.

[echo root]

Fun is subjective. Personally I like all the staves except Voidstrike.

[nocturne dust]

It's just boring.

[nocturne dust]

How dare you

[cloud lichen]

how about that build where you charge a big orb

[echo root]

Oh yes it's so fun relying on rng to shoot two bowling balls once in a while

[cloud lichen]

and throw it for big aoe

[nocturne dust]

That's voidstrike

[cloud lichen]

and stagger

[echo root]

That's the one I described

[cloud lichen]

that looks dope too

[nocturne dust]

The AoE is useless

[jovial juniper]

Ok so
Staff is kinda weak at first because you need levels and stuff like that

[nocturne dust]

Voidstrike is actually stronger than the other staves at low levels

but all the staves scale pretty hard with levels

[echo root]

Purgatus, Elektro and Voidblast are about equal in power. Voidstrike falls behind. (IMO)

[jovial juniper]

Unlocks at level 12(?) iirc

[nocturne dust]

Electro is the strongest staff if you know what you're doing. Purg is second, Voidblast is 3rd but also the safest staff.

[echo root]

I think flamer is safer/easier

[nocturne dust]

It's easier, sure

Safer? Not a chance

[echo root]

It's so easy to stress out and get clapped when you have VB

[nocturne dust]

Literally just point at your feet and click

[echo root]

You also need to actually aim with it, compared to purg

[nocturne dust]

Feet

Click

E z

[echo root]

It doesn't knock things over unless you got them with the epicenter

(Bigger things)

[nocturne dust]

Untrue

Bigger things just become resistant to stagger if you try to knock them down consecutively

[echo root]

Can you stagger maulers with 0.2s charge without hitting them with the epicenter?

[nocturne dust]

I mean if you're charging at your feet and they're coming at you, you'll hit them

[jovial juniper]

Blast at 5
Electric at 8
Strike at 12
Inferno at 15

[echo root]

Elec feels completely different with max charge stat

It barely has an animation once you release

[nocturne dust]

Elec probably scales the hardest and is most reliant on talents

goes from worst to best

[echo root]

Fuckton of peril on it as well

[nocturne dust]

Ye

[echo root]

It's the staff I find myself always bringing Vent with

Purg is fine with shield, so is blast

[nocturne dust]

Well it needs vent so yes

[echo root]

Prefer vent with blast

[nocturne dust]

Electro is super reliant on every meta option Psyker has. Take away vent or ER and it flops. Its state of being the best is super fragile.

[jovial juniper]

It does take a hit

But you still have Scrier's

[nocturne dust]

Scrier's isn't that great and doesn't cover the staff's weakness nor synergize with PC, both things vent does

Scrier's Staff builds are kinda unhinged if they're not Voidstrike

[jovial juniper]

It doubles down on Surge's strength
Single target crit damage

I recommend

You can take Precognition to add more crit damage

Or reality anchor if you really need peril reduction

[nocturne dust]

Which is a problem. Surge doesn't need that except against bosses.

Works, yes. Meta? No. As a meta munchkin, I can't possibly.

[jovial juniper]

Experience the one shots on elites

Join me

Btw last time I checked

[jovial juniper]

Precognition stacked additively with other finesse bonus

DD Scrier's Electrokinectic

[nocturne dust]

Too bad it's a pain to stack

[jovial juniper]

Just quell

As long as you stay overcharging, it'll stack

The weakspot part is whatever

[nocturne dust]

Am I thinking of the right precognition?

[jovial juniper]

The Scrier's node

[nocturne dust]

Oh, lmao

I was thinking of the DD 25 stack node

[late rune]

whats a good/fun melee weapon for psyker lightning build?

[jovial juniper]

Oh no that's Perfectionism
It's not doable with electro
I tried

Nor purgatus

Nor blast

But yeah
Precognition

Don't ask me why it shares the name with a blessing

[nocturne dust]

Renaming incoming

It shall be Voidgaze

[jovial juniper]

But uh yeah
That's one of the options for Kino staff
Even though Scrier's ER goes hard as well

[cloud lichen]

hey guys sorry was in a match

[jovial juniper]

Well if you mean smite+electro staff
Then you got horde and single target covered
Your melee can be whatever

Go shock maul for extra zap

[narrow lichen]

Why is the hit dectection on Smite completely off

like it refuses to chain at times

and wont hit enemies in front of me

[jovial juniper]

Because there's a minimum distance

It'll absolutely not hit enemies hugging you

[narrow lichen]

Like 3 meters in front

it'll hit everything around it but not the target in front

[fossil lagoon]

is there a mod that shows ur crit chance ?

[jovial juniper]

Yes

[echo root]

[solar nest]

Damm positioning with psyker is no joke

[granite kelp]

its pretty easy actually

[radiant frigate]

i hate it

[granite kelp]

you shout with fury before diving balls first into the horde

[plucky flax]

Try positioning with orger.

[slate oasis]

shock maul with high voltage blessing and charged strike talent. is this anything?

[radiant frigate]

it would be cool if this move was actually the play

[radiant frigate]

it's shocking

[plucky flax]

Yes on vet.

[jovial juniper]

Charged Strike is bad
Shock maul can electrocute already

[granite kelp]

it is if you are brave enough

[radiant frigate]

not a matter of courage but a matter of "better served sitting in the back and casting"

ihateitihateitihateit

agony

torment

suffering

[granite kelp]

why resign to palpatine fingers duty?

chain axe does pretty good

[fossil lagoon]

nice thanks

[radiant frigate]

friendship ended with psyker

now veteran is my best friend

[plucky flax]

Very modest.

[broken carbon]

lmfao

[radiant frigate]

гг comrade

[plucky flax]

Was actually on stealth knife zealot for train.,

Teams were so bad.

But stealth objective gaming is op.

[oak breach]

So hypothetically, what would be the best build for completing a 4 player match using staff melee only

Scrier's, crit and DD?

[broken carbon]

@latent mauve did it

[latent mauve]

Not yet

[broken carbon]

ohg

fail

[broken carbon]

but it was 2 bubble, 2 SG, brainburst with kinetic flayer

[nocturne dust]

Setting the difficulty to sedition.

[primal aurora]

How do you use chainsword? And which variant is better?

[jovial juniper]

Light attack
Heavy attack

Oh

Mk4 is the popular one

[nocturne dust]

I thought the 13g or whatever was the popular one

[jovial juniper]

13g is an odd one

If you get wrath on it you can light spam

No thoughts
W M1

[late sapphire]

warp splitting?

Also i reduced my graphics to the lowest possible and am now at about 50 fps again 😭

Great hotfix fs

[jovial juniper]

How much peril do you need to match 1 stack of Wrath?
40% Peril?

[primal aurora]

The hotfix is sponsored by NVidea 😄

[jovial juniper]

I mean wrath can go to 200%

[near drift]

I don't know what settings are default but the high preset it put me on after the update made my game look buttery smooth and all fancy while still keeping frames relatively high

Although it might just be motion blur/post processing stuff tbh now that I'm thinking about it

[clear heath]

they really should've made the settings reset optional

i ended up changing a line in my settings file to make it not reset

[nocturne dust]

That's probably necause of the generated frames thingie

Sure do love me some fake frames

and by love I mean absolutely hate

[latent mauve]

I love my unoptimized trash requiring dlss

It’s not like it looks bad or anything

[late sapphire]

i have what is apparently now a low end rig (1080 ti, i7-9750h)

i had a copy of my settings, only change was fullscreen to borderless fullscreen, fucked my fps, now on (extra) low down from medium

[granite kelp]

idk

my quality raised dramatically

like, weapons went from a blurry haze to actually detailed

[plucky flax]

I still have stutter

Started since lock and loaded patch tho

[narrow herald]

@latent mauve https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkgIiwYSbz4

he's not stopping 😔

[dapper dove]

Peril lowering over time isn't considered quelling right

[jovial juniper]

Oh look
The video I stopped watching yesterday

[solar nest]

guys i need some advice to stay alive with smite op build

[analog agate]

Dodging. Cause if you get hit when smite it stops the cast

[plucky flax]

Class review

[solar nest]

i would like to know about positioning cause always get surrounded and seems like my team just leave me there but probably my positioning is shit

[plucky flax]

Are we gud?

[pulsar hazel]

Hi psyker chat are we having a good one

[narrow herald]

No 😔

[pulsar hazel]

Okay 👍

Im glad

😊

[zinc phoenix]

Probably because they think you standing there holding right click is annoying

[jovial juniper]

Dunno
Stopped watching that video

[plucky flax]

Why? Does he not make good points?

[narrow herald]

Mister E unironically said: "Psykers have very little ways to regen toughness" and I immediately closed the tab

[solar nest]

i guess any reason to be an idiot it's valid

[plucky flax]
