was fighting for my life
is just a lil daemon
if only i had photographic memory
dun be scared, it won't activate until the worst possible moment
i have no idea
no what is it supposed to do
uh huh, is the program solo or is it supposed to interact with something else
I AM USING 17864 LAYERS OF SIMULATION TO RUN ONE THING
NO JUST START IT
i hate this course so much
to the network
to use the gui
i need to connect to have a UI
thats how they taught it anyways
next week i have another practice and i am gonna scream at the TAs
you have no idea the rage i feel in this course
could it be your VM networking isn't configured properly.
Try connected to your docker from inside the VM to see if it actually works
all i see is skill issue 🤡
ye prolly
im assuming you have some service hosted on a local ip, port
i tried everything
doing it locally and using the uni cloud service
neither connect
i think my laptop is just shit
nah can't be your laptop.
Do it from the same VM it should work
docker doesn't take much resource
its not a vm
also, you should go read docker docs for their networking
i remember having to set some stuff
stop being weak
Reading all of this gives me flashbacks to when i tried to get tonic trouble to work (pre 1997 game)
Has the og anticheat where it just deletes files to key progression objects if you try to play it without the disk, meaning it would cause AV to lock down my pc 
try setting the network config to host
I did get rayman 2 to work so if anyone wants the files to that hmu
dats abit different
Dats when you are like 10 years old
this is mr clad being a masters student
Nah this is more like second year student vs master student
Because special edition of special version shit
Custom launcher also always breaks whenever windows has an update :/
Just emulate the N64 version 
Which one, theres 8 lmao
Or 10 cant remember all available languages
And ye most of them have their own quirks...
Legally aquire a copy of the game rom from your N64 cartridge matching the language you want to play the game in then emulate it using Project64
I bought one of these badboys a while ago, they can emulate up to N64/PS1.
nintendo would be the last company i want to support
Don’t do that
Docker networking is fussy at the best of times and running it inside a vm is liable to cause real trouble
If you can share the docker compose file you’re working from I can give you some hints
N64 without the mom’s basement aesthetic just isn’t the same
Debugging from a picture of an error message is wack
How do I quell cancel with left click?
left click, tap r, left click, tap r
repeat
the timing is pretty precise
I meant the macro
@forest iris 
Alright I’ve started psycher
I choosed the electric power and I was thinking of getting one of the staffs
Suggestions?
Get to level 12(?) asap and get the Purgatus (Flamethrower)
Before that just use any staff you can find.
Staffs are all fun I would try out all of them
You're free to use Smite (elecric power), but it's the least fun out of the three powers.
It helps my team tho
Keeps the heretics still
Do this
Yes
Been too much kill stole from those when I was a veteran
It's the best "weapon" while leveling
I know they’re strong but I donmt like them tbh
I have the Electric staff and the Void Explosion staff
The electric one doesn’t feel much powerful but I’m having fun with the explosion
I’m in no rush for now
As for melee I think I’ll use the Psychic Sword
It needs talents and blessings
Do you want smite as your main damage or just as a tool to add a little cc in a bad situation?
It feels unique
Ball or Ground target one?
Electro is strong but requires some practise to get used to the targeting
I use it as hordes arrive to keep the poxes still
Ground target
Yeah I’ve been testing it out in the psykegym
Being able to oneshot is basically a must later on because of the limited hits per cast
But tbh just experiment if youre still levelling
Yeah I keep getting downed
Electro also needs blessings and the fire nodes to spread dps around and it becomes very good
I guess I’ll first reach level 15 to try out all the staffs and then I’ll see
You can't go wrong with any of them really
Man atleast you can just buy any staff now
Played during the beta and only got a staff at lvl 18 since the only source of weapons was the end of mission reward
This is assuming you want to play with smite, personally I hate smite.
Put the blessing that makes things burn when you crit on the weapon + warp flurry.
Spam Vent on cooldown
Regular smite???
Khorne said they wanted smite
It’s the one that interested me the most
Also as a veteran I got to see Psykers players with all their spells
Smite might look the coolest, but it's the slowest pace and most boring one (IMO)
I loved when they used smite cause kept all enemies still and let us go through hordes easily
Yeah its funny.
I will say just as an efficiency thing, if you're with a public group you're likely better off killing stuff than just freezing them in place with smite. If you wanted smite as your main thing path to empowered psionics for the damage
Atleast make sure to pick the middle keystone with smite once youre able to to buff its dmg
This. Have someone use lightning on boss and activate killshot.
That fucks you over when it comes to vent uptime
Spamming vent for 6x burn stacks then getting 3-6 Warp Siphon from the soulblaze alone is just too addictive.
I wacked a Pox to death
No because its in my melee build for psyker not my spell build hahah
Brainpopper is my spell build
Actually
Too bad base smite in even base damn sucks
This would still work but I'm not using it for dps anyway
Id rather grab the melee boostings and survival etc
Well I’m using it to aid teammates not to kill things anyway
Base smite is good to just throw out a quick cc on a burster or crusher horde
Like with grenades as a veteran
I used them only in certain scenarios
I see smite as the same thing
You're good for now no worries
If it's just a side tool don't even sweat it, just get basic smite and build a staff damage build
They suggested me the flamethrower staff but I still have 6 levels to unlock it
I will have fun burning things down
Inferno is great but I like running brain burst and kinetic flayer on it
Yes. I use it to quickly stun to prep my max dmg use.
My comments were related to the full build that got shared, once you reach that point you should be able to onetap most enemies making a stun useless unless you build into it so it does actual dmg
Its great for scriers gaze so I can actually use scriers and be a viable frontline
I wonder if, even while using Purgatus, if Psychic Vampire is better than In Fire Reborn for Warp Charge generation
I do enough of my killing with my melee, not to mention what my allies kill, that it has me wondering
@fringe garden I think just the amount of things you're killing with fire makes fire reborn better, but I couldn't give you proof on that
I guess just looking at the scoreboard it's obvious I usually get by far the most lesser enemy kills.
Since most inferno builds are shrieking and popping elites to spread soulblaze
And that's obviously with Inferno
I think you could probably use either and probably wouldn't notice a tremendous difference, but I could be wrong
You're probably right
Is that a weapon skin for the recon las gun in-game or a mod?
weapon customization mod
Thank you, sorely needed. Time for me to to look into mods since day 2 of coming back and I already have pains without mods.
Weapon custom can be found on the modder discord, link can be found in #📌communities
i can dm you the pull command if that works
One of the few that cant be found on nexus
Is there a list of must have Psyker mods anywhere? I see everyone has some fancy ones and all that that provide amazing information. Do I just go in and dig into it myself or are there resources for this anywhere?
Frequently updated too because some things tend to break the game lmao
You should generally be using docker compose to build the dockerfile so that all the ancillary stuff is handled for you. Ask ChatGPT to generate it and tell it you want a tty
i was not taught any of that theyre just using docker to run an ubuntu install with only one program on it. just for us to run that program
@quartz barn is there an update for weapon customization on the discord? it was causing a memory crash for me.
the entirety of docker is just used to start one program
Are you logging into the container like an Ubuntu vm?
Or are you using the terminal?
Running the mod caused a crash? Or just in general
If youre sure its weap custom just check the pinned download
im supposed to use the terminal i think but i havent made it that far. i can get the container running pull files from it/cd around but i cant get it to play nicely with a remode desktop program
Note that updating everything every once in a while helps
yeah, it was causing a memory leak on the mourningstar somehow. once i removed the mod it stopped. i did see someone on nexus saying the same thing but that version of the mod is pretty old.
I still need to update numeric ui for example because i always get errors on the shock stick special
Is RDP required for this?
So just get the new version
as far as i know yes
Because i dont get memory leaks
i tried running the required file from inside the docker commands but that didnt work
i checked whoami and it still showed root
yeah, i actually didn't know there was a modding discord with another version until recently
idk about a list but these are handy
peril gauge: https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kdarktide/mods/243
warp unbound timer: https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kdarktide/mods/366
mod that lets you easily swap between exclusive talents without remaking your whole build: https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kdarktide/mods/216
peril gauge is essential even if you don't want the gauge
cause it fixes the fake peril numbers the game gives you by default
the fake smoothing of peril numbers when you quell
in reality you quell in chunks
I appreciate it, this will set me on the right path. It's overwhelming diving into mods at first after having been gone well over a year.
For a moment I thought I was in my work chat.
Currently I am goofing off in discord because the junior engineer unplugged a switch when I told him to unplug a client device. Waiting for it to come back up.
It's mod
alright shoot me the docker image on dockerhub and i will take a quick look. what OS are you running locally?
im guessing windows
Man, i finally installed True Level and I'll be damned if that isn't some useful information to have sometimes
I'm really enjoying voidstrike
And it doubles as a semi useful lmb stave cuz of surge and nexus
@haughty star love voidstrike
It just feels chonky one tapping crushers with its crits lol
yeah, it's a cannon
I love voidstrike. favorite staff
i throw my psychic ball 🤾🏾
take me back to the voidstrike we had at the start of the talent tree update
Wat.. I thought it didn't put you in the same hub with blocked players. 😛
is it just not worth doing the mini monster aurics? every time this modifier is going my pug teams get dunked
3veg is for the masochists high skilled players
i'm beginning to understand. i'll go ahead and wait this one out.
Weaker monstrosities are fine when you know how to better fight them in the heat of things.
Is it also just on a tough map?
My pub games only get dunked when the director spawns 3+ of em at the same time and i cant kill them fast enough b4 people die and stop being distractions
There are 2 of them. One is without green bois and significantly easier.
I find it best to run something to allow me to kill monsters myself.
techically 4 variants (3VEG, I-II by itself, Pox Gas Monstro Specials, and A3 which is lights out monstro specials)
I don't play stinky and blind modes
but to say there are 2 of them when 4 exist
is wrong
old man
preference has no play here


Wait so why is surge the recommended lmb staff when the rmb of voidstrike benefits from surge?
surge staff has more crit
cause crit bonus stat
it's starting at roughly 20% more crit than a voidstrike staff would
More crit chance and damage
today clad learned the importance of the mystical art known as "port forwarding"
this immediately caused him to peril out unfortunately
tru im down to 4/5 wounds rn
TAs have cancelled 3 classes and responded to a total of zero emails theyre gonna be at zero wounds if i ever see them before the semester ends
tell them in future that docker compose is a more reliable way to distribute properly port forwarded docker images to end users
im just gonna tell professor that they both ignored my emails first 
I saw something about doctor so. Ask him to turn off your pain inhibitors
Wait, was that the issue?
Yeah he sent me it and I ran thru the whole process. Start container, forward ports, rdp
there's probably a mod for extra loadout slots right? five doesn't cut it for psyker
@prime elk thanks
Oh shit so like the light actually had more damage??
I didn't catch that ty
Ty
Dose anyone have a build for a fire psyker like using the blaze sword and staff
Which scope is that? I finally got it working and all that, I'd like to know which one you're using since it looks so clean.
I think it's called reflex sight 3.
ty ty
What blessings am i looking for on a bolt pistol? Just gonna treat it like a heavy las for now
Gonna have to be more specific
There's alot of soulflame interaction with alot of soykers
shame force sword specials are butt fucking useless outside of illisi and maybe special QQing for peril on occasion
deimos special casting animation goes so hard but it's objectively worse than literally just swinging the damn thing like it's a bigass knife
I just wanna burn things
That's what he's saying lol
Well there's anything with venting shriek and or perilous combustion
I know, I’m just asking if he or anyone else uses the special under specific circumstances
when you have time and you're too lazy to aim against a mutant
i dreamt that fatshark reworked this
heavy special had projectiles and light special did the heavy damage
as I said, spamming with qq for peril if I need to move forward but don't want to duck waddle with my staff
I have learned enough painful lessons about sprinting with 0 stamina I think
To proc uncanny executor really fast
Say
You shrieked
Now everything is on fire
And you want to speed things up
Charge the Deimos
Hit the nearest weakspot
?????
Profit
the humble light attack combo:
trauma staff keeps eating my weapon swap input 😭
trauma inducing
Obscurus
Oh I don’t run executor lol
And I just use push attack to proc uncanny
It's not as fast as special to the head I'll tell you that
But yeah
I think that's about it
@upper sun how do you want me to send you the results from 5m worth of pickaxes
i have not yet done it
it used to taze baddies so i'd charge it to smack a rager so theyd get tazed and stop attacking
whichever way is easiest for you
can you record a video going through them showing the stats of each one?

i suppose i could
or send one morbillion images
god that sounds mildly painful
(no you're not)
(:3)
Noticed these have been in the consolelogs since the sept. patch
(surely any day now)
the force greatsword appeared in my dreams
whichever way is easiest
im gonna process everything into excel anyways
HI
Dorn did some hard crack before that round
also why pickaxes
obvious dump stat and i struggled to find one with dump defence
i have acquired 500+ pickaxes
real 
real
im doing a study to prove its rigged
It can't be
this proves nothing!!!1
How is it rigged, you get it in less than 20 gambles 95% of the time
thats because you get it through empowering
look here chuddie
ur gonna thrust the science and you're gonna love it
good luck
thank you i owe you my life(only ~1.5mil dockets)
you now have a lot more dockets than me
only 140k remains
i refuse

Does Smite class as a warp attack? If so does perfect timing increase its damage?
Yes and yes, but smite doesn't crit so you'll need something else to proc it.
Nearly anything that generate peril or is the blue-ish white fire is warp.
Attacks from SG (scriers gaze) don't convert attacks to warp attacks.
is the dump stat on the combat knife mobility typically?
If you have a spare point, it's worth grabbing; but if everything is tight and you are running an EP smite build then drop it.
I don’t have a spare point. Just on a night shift wondering about the build 😂
Yes.
BUT the scaling bewteen 60 and 80 is not that much and if you're using it for repositioning then maxing mobility is better.
what's the other best option if i kept the mobility 80?
Ah, the endless what if builds. The wake up the next waking cycle and wonder wtf was I thinking? or No I'm actually really smart this is a great idea.
This! And if I'm using more mobile stuff just know "I am speed"
TBH dumping damage is that bad. I haven't extensively tested which is the better dump if you keep mobility. I do know that I needed one more stab on a crusher more often when I dumped damage; and that was the only real difference.
thanks
Ye! When the DD movement speed buff kicks in and you yeet yourself.
By one stab 😂 not the biggest of deals
I try to keep my mobility on stuff 70 over the 60 stat.
Really though what do you need the extra mobility for, too
It's a few % sprint speed at best and you already outrun everything
There's also dodge distance, which can be a problem on narrow walkways that you can fall off of. 
I liked assassins more than i like dogs
But yeah, like previously mentioned, mobility is the dump unless you are just wanting to zoom and slide.
That's a total nonsequitor but that's what dodge distance makes me think of
vt2 specials were kinda balling
bon
i was thinking about how assassins at least were honest about just homing in on you
and the dogs pretend not to but have a silly hitbox
that is fecking true
And also some weird mechanic where i sometimes get hit by a dog but not dogged because apparently i wasn't the target
Dogs doing I'm not gonna get you parkour and then go after you.
good day, psykers
hi hi
looking to try a gun psyker with the shield, any builds?
Hmm SG is usually used with gun. Maybe zarona revolver or bistol with shield?
you're about to get 20 people telling you to take scier's gaze over shield
ep bb shield works ok, guess illisi melee and vraks iag ranged should do, but then the gun is more a secondary
SG bumps most guns a lot, but assail + shield + DD and gun of choice if you're gonna go no SG. A number of the guns work of the increase crit chance from SG for all of the crit related things.
MM for illisi would be good, but that's on the right side of the tree.
thank you all for the insights
Gun psyker build but you take shield instead 
look up microsoft activation script
Trying to figure weapons to go with an Assail/Scrier's/EmpPsy build. Something that benefits from the crit chance right?
I mean, meleeker is gunker is assailker
with ep assail you lack carapace damage
You could also take EK staff
i bet you dont use adblocker either
but it wouldn't really be that great without the fire nodes
You bet wrong, gimme your soul
That's why I'm stuck figuring what weapons to work with. DS is an obvious choice but...I dunno want to change things up
Lawd when they overnerf DS so many builds are gonna suddenly be without carapace/boss damage
revo with sg is ok cara damage, hand cannon ofc
Revo?
Oh right ofc, I was thinking that actually
then for melee anything
could also try chainaxe psyker
chaxe has pretty good boss and carapace damage...
Orestes?
That’s the fun one though
Man I need to level revolvers...
Generally speaking i think with assail and a revolver you can just use any melee, play around a bit - assail and revo cover every niche, just a bit worse than builds with three well matched weapons
Mk 4 fucking up crushers with light attacks 👌
Holy moly, I just had the best clutch of my life. Last man standing in a maelstrom horde, barely blocking hounds while dodging snipers and avoiding pox gas

duz n e 1 wunt 2 play or rick male storm?
Nae
Voidstrike with Scriers gaze takes a bit ol dump on carapace
Malestorm 
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9d5b91ee-7051-4371-8250-a6a3fa0e0ebe/assailsgep-starter
There's 4 points left over, so you can kinda grab whatever appeals to you. One with the Warp for toughness, DR or MS while in SG, Kinetic Deflection for emergencies, Tranquility through Slaughter with an automatic gun for infinite peril, By Crack of Bone for infinite melee peril, Quietude+BattleMeditation for longer SGs.
Weapon-wise, assail handles a lot of your problems, except for carapace and monstrosity. Melee carapace can be handled with DS, Knife, Rashad, and in a pinch Deimos. Ranged Carapace can be Voidstrike/Voidblast, Revolvers, and Bolt Pistol. As a gun psyker, you can kinda go any gun you want, but you need to balance your weakpoint with your melee then.
At least with Assail in the mix, you absolutely destroy mixed hordes and have some sniping capabilities. So once you've covered carapace/unyielding, you're free for the other choice.
Honestly, Bulwarks are more annoying of a problem than carapace at the end of the day. Without Voidblast/Smite/Voidstrike, it takes more work to murder those things.
I ran it with DS+BoltPistol during the Moebian event, and I felt like I solved all kinds of problems for teams.
duz n e 1 wunt 2 care E me en ore brick mine strom
oh hey finally got the pick up 1000 people frame. that took a surprisingly long time
We did it reddit
That one wasnt too bad for me, I played stealth vet for a while when I started. Picking up people constantly in lower difficulties lol.
i continuously fail missions with random, but with my friend who is under leveled, we do so much better
youd think when the psyker smites 50-60 scabs that the other 3 would try and kill them...nope, they all just fuck off in different directions.
Reasons why you don't play smite
i like the CC too damn much
I like playing my games
can entirely stop a stiky situation from happening
Try spec in damage smite
I will always move 60 meters ahead of a smite user
Fear
I will always leave a smyker to kill the things they smite
i mean, i can deal with some, but if its a big crowd, i like some help. just makes it easier
especially if theres bigger dudes like crushers. im not great at dealing with them too well myself yet. 1 is fine, more then that i get comboed a bit
What if the smite user just uses smite to stop pox hound packs? D:
thank you for the zealot advice I will use this immediately 👍
its really just the big guys, and bombers that are killing me now, so im getting better.
a bomber exploded me off the map earlier, like LAUNCHED me off.
I have achieved 1m damage.
remember your damage is in the shrieek
Shriek is more than just damage! It is also great for pushing hounds off allies, getting snipers behind cover, or staggering that crusher that's about to make you a pancake.
oh yeah, it helps so much
when getting used to psyker it's best to carry illisi as well to clean up trash
just the easiest gate for it
That never happens in my lobbies because I refuse to play dog missions lmao
it has so much less dmg tho
that's hilarious
with slaughterer
you gotta kinda view it as multifaceted
Fair. My last Maelstrom mission was dogs and mutants. I only use smite for dogs/burster trains, or if my team is absolutely swamped with ragers and they'll die otherwise
always have something for heavy damage, trash, and mixed hordes
The occasions where I do I’ll just one mag the entire wave with an auto gun
Damage on the card isn't accurate ever
Its only really accurate in inspect view, and that doesn't account for buffs
Illisi with Uncanny/Slaughterer is great. It's the melee I pair with my Voidstrike. Tbh DS4 is a better weapon, particularly for elites, but I prefer the sweeping strikes of Illisi with Warp Splitting for when I get into tight spots and can't charge my Voidstrike. Also to stroke to keep peril up.
Illisi is my "Oh gods let me live" as I spam LMB melee weapon
DS4 is my "Your gods won't save you" RMB weapon
Err, hold LMB
yee illisi drops literal hordes of shit, ds4 drops big boi shit
Not RMB
what the berst buidl
Best? Or Burst?
Because "best" is objectively LMB-spam Surge staff. But "best" subjectively is the one you enjoy most and perform best on
ds4 + surge staff?
DS4 or combat knife. With LMB spam you barely touch melee
I want to use this but can't pull off the quell cancel well
I killed many a dog.
oh is it only good with quell cancel?
A lot of people use mouse macros
It's fine without quell cancel. It's busted with.
What do you guys run on your combat knives?
I don't. >:(
I prefer Riposte + whatever the bleed on crit one is
or at least I did, I don't have a knife anymore
but I can't imagine that fell too much out of favor
:(
There, no masked link, Hadron.
This Maelstrom modifier earlier today brutalized each team I tried with.
Almost won one, but in the final stretch we got separated by bosses and suffocated in gas.
the haha funny highest docket one
It’s overpowered by default. It gets more overpowered with quell cancel tech
I ended up swapping to bubble shield to try to keep my team alive. It almost worked.
ok so I wanted to test out the recon lasgun for a gun psyker and what I have noticed is the brain burst perk that triggers on an elite/special seems to be kinda strong for this type of build. Also here is a link for the build as I do want to improve it. Is it optimise, no
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9d5ba86e-aa1d-4dcd-8e20-8b951f633e44/recon-lasgun-test
The only problem I can see so far is the time to kill is probably high and the brain burst perk won’t trigger
In my tests, Kinetic Flayer makes up ~10% of damage to elites/specials/monstrosities and ~5-6% of total damage.
But I use it on Purg and Trauma, which, as you mentioned, have somewhat slower kill times
I think people usually pick Assail with gunker
I kinda want to mix it up
Disrupt destiny is in most of builds lol
It's in Voidstrike and Gunker builds
this fucking mastery process is gruelling
but at least it's guaranteed good
i was using it on heresy and i'm fairly certain this game pairs you off gear score
Does it? I wasn't sure
i think so
I've had some people with like <400 gear score
cuz i bounce around between literally anything heresy and damnation usually i just shop by the map and conditions
and i've never been paired with this many 20somethings
Is gear score a multiplayer for the weapons damage? Also what does gear score do for curios?
The score tells you about where the stats are on a weapon/curio
Higher score = higher stats
but that's collectively
It doesn't necessarily mean higher damage
You can have a 0% damage weapon with higher score than an 80% damage weapon (because of the other stats)
Like shotgun 1 has a gear score of 280 and will have worse stats while shotgun 2 has a gear score of 480 and better stats. Right?
Overall, yes. But shotgun 2 could have a worse damage stat than shotgun 1.
and obviously, some stats are a lot more useful than others.
But shotgun 2 has let’s say higher cleave and could make it better than shotgun 1?
Depends on your use case, but at the end of the day you can max out all but 1 stat on a weapon by getting to score 500
so we refer to that 1 stat as the 'dump' because it's the only stat at 60 instead of 80
(and for some reason 80 and not 100 is the max)
for curios as long as it has the stuff you want then that's all that matters
So gear score doesn’t exactly matter on curios?
like all these curios are as good as they can possibly be, but one has 10 less points
it does for every stat except wounds, which are always 1
the score scales the primary stat of the curio
but if you're 410+, you're max.
Like +2 stamina at 210 becomes +3 Stamina at 310?
It's +3 at ~400 iirc
and also check your curio because the game rounds, so at one specific point the stamina says +3 but is actually +2

are the servers shitting the bed or something
since yesterday it's been half normal darktide and half slideshow but as far as I've been able to find there's nothing going on on my end
it's been normal for me
I like bleed on crit plus rending. Rend works on bleed, warpfire, autos, and helps put down big 'uns. You don't get quite as much crit, but it smooths out the damage profiles you hit.
what do you guys think about kinetic flayer after its changes
It still procs on non-elites/specials if your shots only connect on trash. It's a nice 1-point boost if your weapon is gonna be spraying all over enemies. Maybe something like voidstrike or purgatus.
i disagree, i've never had it proc on fodder enemies after its most recent bug fix
used it today, auric damn, always only activated on specials, even in hordes of pox
Not correct.
Last I read, like a week ago, that was happening.
If it's not happening, then great.
Ye it was right after the rework, but the bug got sorted out in a hotfix for KF.
#📢news-bulletin message
little bit over 2 weeks ago
Cool, missed the hotfix!
i like it on a gunker build where you don't use your blitz much
My biggest issue with it is that it forces you to choose between the tier below it and the tier below assail.
So by taking it, you can't take fast-walk quell or MM, and if you're trying to pick up the crits on the right side, it's another point of travel.
i'm ngl, it's not a choice because of psykinetic aura, that one is just too good.
ONE MORE MISSION TO GO
NOW i can finally talk shit about voidstrike with confidence

you can use it with blitz out, with a staff, or force sword only
Blitz, staff, or forcesword
alrighty thanks
just did first mission on Psyker
and wanted to facepalm at how long a single BB channel took
and it doesn't do any damage if you don't full channel

yeah base brain burst sucks
brain rupture is only sightly better
you really need to unlock the perks for it
my advice is pick up Assail ASAP, it carries early game Psyker
It's vaguely usable with the fast charge after using your ability, or also with Empowered Psionics keystone.
But it's still painfully slow
Assail is the best blitz at actually being a blitz, the others take more supplementary roles except for ep smite
I like it quite a bit. on some builds I find myself basically never using my blitz, so getting a free brain burst is nice. guarantees the kill and combos great with perilous combustion and warp siphon
Yeah, I like kf too
Assail is honestly good enough to take over as a primary weapon half the time.
not Smite?
thought Smite would help me carry low level games as i level up
It's okay
If you're using it for damage smite needs empowered psionics (middle keystone)
smite can cause you to catch some flak from players
I cast BB 11 times manually.
there is a lot of hostility towards smite psykers rn
So subtract like 10-15k
not really
Smite requires some extra work to really do damage.
just venting shriek and adequete warp charges
Which means KF did maybe 30k damage in a 30 minute game
This is what I'm using as a Gunker, you might recognise it
Like, you really want venting shriek and then either warp charges or EP to actually clear hordes, otherwise, you're mostly just holding them still and not actually solving the problem.
i only use my blitz when i want to conserve ammo and take things out from range, and have the time to do it
dueling sword or columnus autogun for everything else
@haughty star true, that also works
gunker is fun
it is effective
Another one. Manually cast BB 14 times. So KF did something like 40k damage in 35 minutes.
different loadout lol
I kinda like dumping assails and swapping to guns. Plays like a vet weapon spec except with two guns, and MM is strong.
yeah, it's a pretty original loadout. a lot of off meta picks there. i did it all on my own, too.
(this is a lie)
perilous combustion
psykinetic aura
seer's presence
scriers gaze
disrupt destiny"off meta"
Perilous combustion without wildfire ? What’s the point
wildfire is not good
Personally, I'd take the point out of true aim, and grab the crit aura instead of the cdr aura.
yeah wf is only good under certain points
But that all tracks.

A big thank you to my duo in the gameplay video Jane Darktide - She was able to edit this for me and did a great job. :3
I've been having unrelenting computer issues the last week which is why I haven't uploaded - My CPU seems to be borked. I have some older footage I will use for some video ideas and hopefully I will be up and going soon.
0:...
that could be a good point about true aim
hmmm
Like, it's pretty min-maxy and would require me to do more work than I'd care to to justify
It is
i don't see a good node to put the true aim point in by itself
You've been told why it is before too, iirc.
Yeah, one point in that build isn't too valuable.
i disagree
Like, if you took out perilous, true aim, and found one more point to waste, you could pick up the cleave talent, Warp Splitting.
It literally is a requirement for the highest damage builds for psyker. 
Then if you're doing non-revolver stuff, you'll cleave hordes with all your boosted damage.
??
Wildfire is good on Purg and Blaze Trauma. More fire.
and EK. 3/4 staves recommend 
I don't know much about EK
didn't they fix that?
Chain reaction of fire
Same (even if I routinely pick it because I want to let the galaxy burn)
Fire goes and goes and goes, even just 2 stacks, making you scale up that much faster
They narrowed the scores in which it happened, so partially.
so what score do I need now?
Soulblaze damage is exponential in the first 6 or so stacks, so having 2-4 free stacks on an enemy is great
It's free damage
i know how SB scaling works
wildfire only goes up to 4 stacks, and only takes 4 stacks from the enemy killed, divides it by how many enemies it is spreading to to a minimum of 1, then spreads it like that (from what i remember)
so you are only applying 1 stack to a crowd
which is nothing
^ That's how I last understood it.
Okay, that's one stack more than you had on them, and it will keep spreading.
Wildfire spreads up to 4 stacks of soulblaze from a dying target with up to 4 stacks (it can have more, it just won't spread more than 4) to enemies around that target, distributing those stacks evenly (so 4 enemies each get 1 stack). Now, that can seem inconsequential or bad, but here's the thing: in auric, that's a free 4 stacks on every enemy before they enter your range because it works beyond your range. Purgatus has a cap of 15 stacks (16 with crit), so that's 1/4 of the stacks already applied.
In a fire-themed build where you're spreading it a bunch, it IS an accelerant to get to the bigger stacks, but if you aren't doing a ton of consistent fire, I don't think it amounts to too much damage.
Purg and Blaze Trauma do massive fire damage.
It's nothing on an individual enemy, sure, but then this is a horde game. 4 stacks per dead enemy in a horde is a lot of stacks.
purgatus already builds stacks fast enough that wildfire shouldn't be of consequence, at least in my opinion
and yes, it's only 1 to an individual enemy, but that doesn't matter? 3 more enemies are going to die in auric before you blink.
It is actually of noticeable consequence
Ime, with a build that is always stacking fire, it matters. If you're in a build that isn't stacking fire and is trying to incorporate it, it feels pretty bad.
Like, I can tell the difference between wildfire and no wildfire very easily. For one, it applies stacks to enemies outside purg range and cone, which is important. For two, it helps keep enemies at the edge of your range, helping you stay safer and spread via wildfire even more.
Yes, but generally 3/4 staves stack fire, and only 1 (voidstrike) has a build without it, but can still stack fire.
Does Voidblast always go Blazeblast rn? And I can't get fire damage going on Voidstrike, especially with SG. Too much actual killing and not enough fire stacking.
Wildfire isn't close to the weakest node on a purgatus/EK/trauma build.
Also can someone explain Dclaw to me? I've somehow never used that weapon in 250+ hours. Do you hold the Parry or just try to time it? Does it automatically go off? Is it directional or it can parry anything?
Time it
Roughly time it, the window is generous
You don't use the fire blessing on voidstrike, you just stack fire with PC/wildfire/shriek
Voidblast's most optimal build by far is fire trauma. Rending trauma still exists and isn't bad tho.
Ah. That explains it. I wasn't using Shriek, I was abusing SG/Warp Unbound for infinite firing.
Yeah that would be the other, non-fire build
Been on a SG kick, using it with everything.
Voidstrike is the one I don't use Wildfire on. PC and Shriek, tho

I mean you can and it'll work, but missing wildfire is dumping quite a bit of damage in a fire build
What makes the ek staff good at spreading fire?
and honestly, Voidstrike's fire build is played the same way as EK, so it ends up being just worse EK build
perilous combustion
EK targets elites, PC stacks higher than purgatus, EK has higher range than purgatus
easy burn burn
It's a DD build, not WS. If I were spamming Shriek with WS, then I would care more about wildfire
That's what I figured, thanks
Hhhhmmm, I wouldn't go DD with shriek, I would use scrier's
Because you're a weirdo
🤷♂️
:(
If I was weird, would I use an unhinged Devil's Claw parry build?
the answer is yes
Yeah, I think it amounts to both people being right. Wildfire is bad when you aren't doing much with fire, like a gun/assail psyker with scrier's. And Wildfire is impactiful if you are using things like Venting Shriek and force staves.
it's forgiveable on zealot cuz zealot things
okay on vet
but soyker it is just shameful
I want to like DC on psyker, simply because it shits on ragers.
But it always feels terrible from the moment I drop,.
so does like every stave psyker has
I like devil's claw
and force sword for that matter lol
And so do a bunch of other things, but I like simply going, "no" at ragers and having them die.
It's good anti horde and makes you rager proof
I mean, I was never saying to take it for all occasions. My point is just that it's not a bad node. Many people for some reason think it is (curse you Atheneum!)
its okay anti horde and makes you less likely to die from ragers lol
So you just spam parry and it auto retaliates?
kinda mid compared to illisi and a few well timed doges imo is all
Yes 

Literally press 1 button and be immune to melee with KD
works even for overheads, tho you don't do crap against carapace armor
Yeah. Other guy said it was bad. You said it was impactful. One of those situational things.
It's a strange mentality to me that because there is something better on paper the other thing is bad
literally noone was saying that lol
Yeah, the parry feels really nice. Like if you've played a dark souls, it's like two or three times as forgiving.
Maybe I misunderstood the "shameful" part
Fair, but I use the claw defensively, not offensively. If I was going to be offensive, I have a murder-everything-at-all-times staff
to me it feels clunky and weird
That's how I feel about all meleeker
and takes up a spot either the beautifully well rounded trash cleaning illisi could fill or the heavy hitting ds4
it's alot more well rounded than a dclaw offensively
False
Dclaw is well-roundedly bad

lol
i was boutta say
IT'S DONE
about a 3 maybe 4 hour turnaround on mastering a weapon isn't turrible
had a couple hours last night and a couple tonight. subtract the screwing off it was prolly a few hours

Yeah, DClaw definitely ends up in like C-tier of my choices. If I'm not going one of the top picks, DS or Illisi, I'm fucking around with knives, combat axes, chain weapons. If I'm bored of all that, that's usually where Dclaw, tac axe, and shock maul come in.
I keep trying to make all my classes into knife Zealot, with mixed results…
it sucks that it ends up being that but its just kinda the psyker way
Lmao, make the DClaw into a ranged parry weapon at the cost of a bunch of peril. I'm here for that.
I want to parry snipers and 1-shot them back.
I use it largely for the parry too on builds where my staff is already kind of doing most things
I want to 'return to sender' snipers
you either need a illisi for trash or a ds/deimos for heavy hitting. soykers just got a tight tool kit
Kinda like how laspistol gets the funny push.
What is burga?
you need DS still
😔
Psyker doesn't have true all-rounders like the other classes
Closest thing is probably voidstrike, but good luck aiming for weakspots on a chaos spawn at range
ds/deimos for sperging uncanny around?
Knife can uncanny, too! xD
I mean, less uncanny for soulblaze and more you need to stab crushers/bosses
Like, the soulblaze uncanny does okay damage for psyker monster damage I guess
true crushers dooo be fireproof
i like how gorgonum just doesn't give a shit
it'
it just burns em anyway
or maybe that's the shitzu sized bullets
who knows
Tangent, but I really wish Assail could take Wildfire.
with how fast it murders bosses, I don't think the fire does a huge amount
after being stuck with a shitty voidstrike for so long i'm feeling it's ideal partner is prolly illisi
that's mostly the fire
get's something stupid like 22 stacks of burn or some shit
Is it? Does it just not have a stack limit or something?

I don't use Ogryn so I wouldn't know
it's something wonky with blaze away and ogryns
yeah i couldn't tell you but i remember the dummy bossing damage comes from the stupid stacks of burn it applies
Yeah, GunOgryn absolutely murders monsters.
I was impressed by a shieldgryn today that just went crazy with the shield
IF SET UP RIGHT
was animation cancelling like a mfer tho
dude shield is no joke
I don't think its burn stacks has a listed cap, unlike nearly everything else.
I know, that was my weapon when I played Ogryn 
The only thing that sucks about the shield is the lack of moveset, it's basically just h1 over and over
Can get boring but it's strong
who cares throw a l1 in for the funzies
That's the best part 
man i swear those that do mix it in that's all they're doing it for lol is to just mix up what they're watching
It's great until you play as much shield ogryn as I have I guess
Poor shield needs the pickaxe treatment, those feel amazing
there. now my second soyker will just be my voidstrike soyker
They could add mks
Y-you have loadouts


Demented
that's fair
Fatshark more loadouts when
i have never been able to figure out how to not get snipping tool shots to bleed out from the HDR
That was my initial thinking behind the name tbh cuz i was new and thought the chain lightning was cool
My zealot, ogryn, and vet are UncleBadTouch, SirSnugglyPants, and StinkyPinky in that order
it's a toss up between uncle and edging for my fave name choice tho lol
i hate paying for cosmetics but i had to grab this guy
pay pig
weird
those together are banned by this server lol
some of the shit is pretty based tho
and it's good game with no dlc
glares at VT2
I do like the funny plumed hat. I won't buy any of the over-priced cosmetics, but if I did, that hat would be one of them.
I would prefer DLC
so, y'know, they can keep making this game instead of a Darktide 2
but that would be if they didn't charge for cosmetics
and they do so
cowboy soyker is one of my vaves

they've done pretty well with free content for a raid style game. if they keep it up at this rate i'd be happy
with how many people i see with the new cosmetic shit every other week i'm pretty sure it's a reasonable form of sustenence over dlc.
Yes, but they also have the cosmetic stuff in VT2 and that didn't stop them
With blazeblast, do I want to ever full charge it?
fuller charger wider radius
You crit fish with full charges
You defend yourself with half charges by shooting your feet
e z
Wasn't sure if mini-charges for more chances at more fires was better
yeah, I can see how you might think that, but the main thing is the range of the explosion and fire application
which comes from full charges
(and also epicenter damage which is important for the big bois)
time to try this bad boy out
Yep, one of those mathy things that you either need hard numbers in front of you, or to ask for the answer.
what should be the Perks for a Knife ?
I go crit-bleed and uncanny, but I've seen a few things.
Uncanny/riposte+precog with flak+armor that isn’t Unarmored or infested
^ That sounds right.
But if you take precog, you can't make bleed. And if you can't make bleed, knife isn't as fun, lol.
do we not use crit chance on daggers?
and is carapace worth it if your only weakness is crushers?
The perk? No. Blessings and talents? Yes
could just try to ignore crushers i suppose
Knife has very good carapace damage
blessings isn't the thing i need info on i got the blessings i want its' the perks
Even better with uncanny
ty
Knife with uncanny will deal with crushers, yeah
this is what i needed to know
Knife without uncanny will deal with crushers
so i can throw on the Capace damage on the perk of hte knife and we're good ?
This might just be a zealot thing though
Yes
awesome
I mean... not that well?
It will do okay
Precog riposte is pretty good for zealot knife because of duelist existing
jesus christ lol i did a regular damnation high intensity dogs and it was tougher than any auric i've done in a long time lol
it was me and a hammer zealot holding it down, other dudes were total meat shields lol
10 deaths and i didn't have one down lmao
dd be on crack sometimes lol
uncanny/precog and precog/riposte is fine for scriers
precognition node exists so
Oh right scriers fuckoff crit bonuses
yop
Forgor
duelist if it was good
Despite liking gaze best
😈
Gaze is the most fun and interactive psyker F ability
shriek is the pertiest
Hard disagree
cause it interacts with everything
that your hands touch
so yeah
scriers goated
nothing gives me soyker hard on more than lighting the whole ass level on fire
At least it isn’t just a vent button
Or a wall
yea pretty insane node
Which is worse than a fog cloud
💀
A vent button that sets everyone on fire
a wall that says 'no' to specials, a bubble that keeps out farts
and vomit
Idk gaze is just more fun for me
I do prefer bubble over wall
i like the shields for proccing burst
I have to actually play around the ability when it’s active
dome literally puts burgle in gay baby jail and anytime it vomits inside it just gets deleted
lmfao
but i gotta be gunger
Fair, but it really is just more damage which is like the most boring thing to me
IT'S BON BON
I'll show you a load
I would've wanted something interesting like +100% melee range and duplicating all ranged attacks
something just weird and spicy


Right tree is the most uniquely designed part of psyker (when comparing to vt2
Idk wat u mean by that
Left has 2 “reused” major nodes and middle has one
i could give fuck all about the WHU but darktide is dank
I prefer WH Fantasy over 40k 
AoS tide would be peak

Age of Sigmar is anything but peak
but also I'm not really a WH fan anyway
The models are
Oh, well, I know nothing about the models so 🤷♂️
REEEEEEE how do I fix this NONSENSE siblings!
I have four blessing points but no perks to spend them on
You know, I have 0 clue if it affects any breakpoints or if it's just loving synergy, but Shock Mace's Falter increasing ranged stagger makes me happy with Shriek and Voidblast.
It's kinda like Bolt Pistol and Shredder Grenades with radius.
I am angery
Ah you f***
HOW DID YOU BOTH KNOW
I was too slow 😭
Wait
rahhhh
shame this man
smh they're using the wrong quote and saying 'thing' instead of 'part'
Smh my head
I at least used the correct one

I don’t think those interact
IT IS INCORRECT
Bolt Pistol does, so I'm going to keep feeding myself dopamine and pretend it does.
Oh yes, I ran into four random siblings today. We trashed the mission lmao
Why would you want stagger resistance reduction
three*
ya know
I'll count the voice in my head
Wait it’s void blast
i bet those dipshits at fuckshark probably have another blessing coming for EK
Voidblast knocks things down, I want to knock them down morer.
so you can stagger, theoretically
You literally cannot proc falter with voidblast
and they just too stupid and released unlocked with all the perks
It requires headshots
Shriek staggers things, I want to make them staggereder
I mean
