psyker-class

[nocturne dust]

More stagger rarely really helps

[raven mountain]

"Additionally, increased ranged stagger strength by 30%"

[nocturne dust]

Shriek and Voidblast already have absurd stagger

[raven mountain]

I don't know if it's funny code and it works, if it's lazy copy/pasta and it doesn't, but I want morer staggering for equipping a funny weapon.

[patent jacinth]

That’s barely worth it for taking an effectively dead blessing

[raven mountain]

That, and it works for Bolt Pistol and grenades, so I will dream that it works shock maul.

[nocturne dust]

You do you

[solar ocean]

I still giggle to myself every time I see myself knock down a group of ogryn with a shriek lmao

[haughty star]

especially over blessings that work lol

[solar ocean]

like bowling pins

[haughty star]

yeah dude

shit is peak soyker lol

just yell at a group and watch it shit

[raven mountain]

I mean, I do like 300k ranged, 100-150k warpfire, and less than 100k melee. I don't mind it being less than optimal if it feeds the happy-button in my brain.

[haughty star]

i don't use non soyker weapons on soyker

[raven mountain]

Fwiw, I like Falter+Skullcrusher. Kinda assures the stagger for the bonus damage if I land a headshot.

[nocturne dust]

Peak soyker is getting the whole mixed horde to die at the same time to soulblaze by shouting and spamming funny spells just before the five poxwalkers behind them smack them all at once causing instant death

[raven mountain]

Then 5 snipers chain fire into your dead body

until you actually die

[unique mist]

peak soyker is blowing yourself up with assail

[raven mountain]

Actually had that happen earlier today, but with 2 bursters and 3 snipers.

[haughty star]

one of my favorite soyker things is effectively turning pbs into napalm bombs lol

pc my beloved

never let me go

[raven mountain]

I die once a map to assail because of Warp Unbound bug.

Legit considered Crystalline Will just for that.

[haughty star]

wait so how does blaze work on purg

it has no mag

[raven mountain]

If you have the ui thingy, you can see the stacks of Blaze Away

[ripe obsidian]

I just did a melee-only maelstrom where I was racing the Zealot to see if they could stab the crushers before I blew their heads off. I won. Barely. Barely.

[raven mountain]

Basically, it amounts to fire for a second or two and get all your stacks.

[unique mist]

i think its literally a second of continuous fire

[raven mountain]

It's a must-pick for purg rn, afaik

[nocturne dust]

It just does

Lol

It 'works' off charge, but not really and just stacks super quick

and stacks once per lmb

[haughty star]

https://tenor.com/view/it-be-like-that-sometimes-like-that-sometimes-snoop-dogg-sometimes-just-like-it-gif-12501830

[unique mist]

i heard it also bumps your soulblaze tick damage

[nocturne dust]

https://tenor.com/view/todd-howard-it-just-works-bethesda-this-all-just-works-gif-20598651

[nocturne dust]

yes

Blaze Away amps everything about purgatus

but especially direct damage

[haughty star]

holy shit burga gotta be most op rn

[nocturne dust]

direct damage becomes 1/3rd of the damage of purgatus on my build

but I use PF and not nexus so that probably also helps direct damage

(and no PF is not optimal, I just like it)

[haughty star]

arghhh

to perfect my ogryn GG and shield class or to continue adding tools to my soyker tool kit

[raven mountain]

With my Scrier's Gaze build, I get 50/50 ranged and warpfire.

[buoyant maple]

Any psyker called “identitycrisis”?

[haughty star]

see; literally any gunker

[nocturne dust]

Scrier's on purgatus is 🤮

[haughty star]

god the more i play soyker the more unfun other classes feel

[raven mountain]

Idk, damage makes burn more, makes fire plume more, and infinite peril is nice.

[nocturne dust]

[haughty star]

voids prolly not optimal but building this thing has been fun ish and it's hella sick to use

[raven mountain]

I was pretty hardcore into just shriek for more stacks, but I tried SG with Warp Unbound and it's just as fun.

[haughty star]

it's literally like a unlimited mag plasma gun lol

[nocturne dust]

Yeah voidstrike is the worst staff but imo the most fun

(and worst staff does not mean weak by any measure)

[raven mountain]

It's even more fun 0-charging it. Makes a funny brrrr sound.

[haughty star]

like if every part of the game was a hallway the other staves wouldn't hold a candle

[nocturne dust]

Lol, yeah

[haughty star]

those hallway holdouts with it tho are fuckin sick lol

that crunchy noise when it goes through like 10 or 20 people is just satisfying

[raven mountain]

Is VStrike just Surge and peril-crit these days? I remember there used to be a version where you quell on headshots and had infinite peril just by firing across hordes.

[nocturne dust]

yes, it's surge + nexus

Transfer peril is a thing you can use but

it really isn't worth it

Some people like to use it anyway tho

[haughty star]

yeah it would feel super weak without surge imo

and it's not really super demanding on peril with radius as the dump

[patent jacinth]

Don’t you have to manually split the balls to get benefit from surge on voidstrike

[nocturne dust]

No?

[raven mountain]

I feel like I remember it from the before days. Though maybe that was abusing True Aim for auto crits or something.

[nocturne dust]

That's why we have hallways

Everything in a tight row

double shot down it

[haughty star]

imma try dd with it now

[nocturne dust]

The DD + scrier's build is great with VS

[haughty star]

i'm using it without ER or the warp charges resistence and it's pretty friendly still

[patent jacinth]

I remember hearing about how enemies can only be damaged by one of them, gaslighting myself I guess

[raven mountain]

I need to use DD more. I just like EP/Assail and Warp Charges in general too much.

[nocturne dust]

Well that's just completely false

🤷‍♂️

[haughty star]

Gaslighting isn't real//

[patent jacinth]

At least I wasn’t ever playing VS

[nocturne dust]

https://tenor.com/view/misinformation-me-purposefully-spreading-misinformation-on-the-internet-teddy-bear-typing-misinformation-on-the-internet-gif-27679617

[patent jacinth]

Real

[haughty star]

lol looking at my build i don't wanna drop either of the funny new staff perks but i also don't want to drop solidity. i might just run dd without the double stack grab

[mossy oyster]

viable point to tax

ive ran no triple DD stacks on weakspot kills a bit in a few different loadouts

not the biggest difference if you're on top of killing DD shit anyway

(besides how fast you get to max stacks)

[haughty star]

with between void and lmb spam shouldn't be a huge issue

something like this

[nocturne dust]

Ew

I would drop all three of the new leftside perks

but you do the weird lmb macro madness so

[haughty star]

i could probably get rid of channeled if i hate not having tripple but i do be liking my light spam for trash cleanup

[nocturne dust]

Just use half-charged rmbs

🤷‍♂️

Like, I literally only use lmb for single enemies, and they die instantly

so there's really no reason for those 3 points at all

[haughty star]

ES really helps out with bossing damage

[nocturne dust]

I'd be more worried about clearing ads and hitting the head than overall damage

Like, yeah, it'll help with boss damage but imo it's not worth the 2 point dump

[haughty star]

i mean 36 percent is pretty huge when it's this easy to obtain

and lasts 10 seconds

[nocturne dust]

Your job isn't boss damage anyway tho, and it's not as significant as you might think since Voidstrike has a pretty hefty charge time

It does help, but not taking the last node of DD hurts a lot more, not taking ER hurts a lot more, no wildfire on a fire build hurts a lot more

[haughty star]

fuck er

[nocturne dust]

although you're doing a weird thing with top left and bottom right

[haughty star]

literally bro if you can't accept it's a subjective perk idk what to tell you lol

too glassy for me but i'm prolly just bad lol. it takes HUGE amounts of survival away from psyker

[nocturne dust]

It's objectively meta

Your preference can be different

but that's you, not ER

[haughty star]

well ya know i and many others don't like it lol

[nocturne dust]

Yes

[haughty star]

because it takes too much survivability away from a already fairly glass char

[nocturne dust]

Lots of people don't like wildfire too, but it is also objectively meta

[haughty star]

and in the area it hurts the most

[nocturne dust]

and lots of people don't like smite, but that too is objectively meta

Not saying the meta is always good, but it is what it is

[haughty star]

yeah smite actually works all around lol

there is no subjective there

er is not objectively meta

[nocturne dust]

It is tho

[haughty star]

just because it's more damage doesn't always mean better

that in itself is a subjective opinion

[nocturne dust]

that's literally what the meta is tho

[haughty star]

which is why meta is often hard to define in a pve game

who get's to decide that?

you?

Me?

Pygex?

lol

[nocturne dust]

Doing the most with as little as possible is the meta, and you can't do more survivability than 'taking no damage'

Survivability has a limit, damage doesn't because the game will always just spawn more enemies

[haughty star]

noone takes no damage

point invalidated

next

[nocturne dust]

until the point where you theoretically spawnkill them instantly 100% of the time

[nocturne dust]

Sure, but my point is survivability has diminishing returns

If you don't get downed, it's not helpful

🤷‍♂️

[haughty star]

yeah but acting like anyone plays perfect all the time is ignorant

[nocturne dust]

I never acted like that tho

[haughty star]

ER is not meta because you say so

end of story

you don't decide the meta lol

[nocturne dust]

I'm not saying ER doesn't hurt at times, but that is easily worked around

[nocturne dust]

Neither do you

[haughty star]

it's literally a 50/50 mixed bag anytime its brought up

not even close to being objectively right

[nocturne dust]

It really isn't

People agree that it can hurt, but I don't know many psykers that don't take it and play aurics regularly

because it's good, and powerful, and helpful.

[haughty star]

ER is straight trash

[nocturne dust]

Lmao, the truth comes out

You've been projecting your personal opinion

[haughty star]

almost everyone i see running it downs 3-6 times in any given auric

[nocturne dust]

Oh no, not the pubs who go down a ton regardless of ER

surely it must be ER's fault

https://tenor.com/view/milastauffer-whatever-eyeroll-gif-10044193424512832782

[haughty star]

i've never said anything but? you're the one who acts like your personal opinion defines meta lol

[nocturne dust]

No u

[strong gulch]

ER is meta is for WC surge and trauma.

[nocturne dust]

You literally deny that ER is good by any measure and say it's entirely subjective when it's not. It is good, it is meta, and it is powerful.

[haughty star]

like your whole "wildfire is meta" speil

literally noone used to say that but chaos lol

[nocturne dust]

Uh huh

[haughty star]

noone that matters anyway

[nocturne dust]

Uh huh

[strong gulch]

With mettle nerf + ER, trauma def feels more fragile. Shifting curios and toughness regen perks helps tho.

[nocturne dust]

"Everyone who disagrees is wrong and doesn't matter"

[haughty star]

literally you lol

"my opinion is meta"

[nocturne dust]

Projecting so hard

[haughty star]

such a fucking cuck bro lol

[nocturne dust]

You indeed are

[haughty star]

https://tenor.com/view/mr24hrs-peewee-peewee-herman-pee-wee-pee-wee-herman-gif-17803003653906110424

sick burn bruh

[nocturne dust]

https://tenor.com/view/yugioh-no-u-no-you-reverse-uno-uno-gif-22508660

[haughty star]

but yeah. ER is trash in my opinion because it basically hard cancels psyker's only real means of tanking chip damage

er in your opinion is good because you can't quell or smthing idk

[nocturne dust]

That would only be true if it cancelled regen entirely

Bruh, do you get chipped every 5 seconds?

Cuz if you get chipped, you can regen before getting chipped again with -30% or not

That's the issue, it doesn't actually help unless there's a rare moment where you get hit consecutively, and psyker tends to drop regardless when that happens

[solemn moss]

What’s ER?

[nocturne dust]

Empyric Resolve

[raven mountain]

Psyker has the fastest natural toughness regen as well as tons of ways to pick up bits and pieces of toughness over time. It's made to take a random single hit and ignore it, even with the loss of toughness gain from ER

[haughty star]

-40 Peril for -30 percent toughness regen from all sources

[raven mountain]

And if you're taking two or three hits, toughness regen isn't going to help you.

[nocturne dust]

This, Psyker is fine with -30%. It can take some getting used to, but you'll be better for it and it'll give you better habits anyway.

[raven mountain]

And if you're quelling 100% more than someone else, you're contributing half as much.

[haughty star]

yes in theory it sounds great but without er just plays better without the loss in being a toughness battery

[raven mountain]

Less time spent quelling is more time spent quelling problems.

[haughty star]

40 percent more

more time quelling is more toughness regenned

[nocturne dust]

wtf is a toughness battery, cuz psyker ain't it 💀

Ogryn over there taking snipers to toughness

and then instantly regening with a heavy

[nocturne dust]

No? No

You regen based off peril quelled, not off time

and also, soulstealer exists and is better regen anyway

[haughty star]

yes and generating less peril leads to less quelled dipshit

[raven mountain]

I won't argue specific numbers because I don't want to figure it out, but I'm pretty sure if they're generating 40% less peril, they're quelling significantly less often than 40% less.

[nocturne dust]

Soulstealer

More damage, more regen

[haughty star]

also 30 percent less from that

[nocturne dust]

Sure

and?

[haughty star]

there is no world in which er equals more survivable because a quell takes literally a fraction of a second lol

[nocturne dust]

I never said more survivable

but it's not going to really hurt you either unless you're taking multiple shots way too quickly

[haughty star]

even saying it's more dps is almost laughable tbh

[nocturne dust]

and that's a losing game anyway

[nocturne dust]

Bruh

I cannot with your stupidity

[raven mountain]

It doesn't take a fraction of a second. Maybe to eke out one more cast

[haughty star]

you usually get one more shot off that takes up to seconds depending on stave from all the staves for a fraction of a second of quell time lol

[haughty star]

which is all you should be doing anyway if you're playing well lol

[raven mountain]

Idk, if there's still a horde, and I'm quick-quelling between every shot

that sounds worse than just getting to keep fire

[haughty star]

staying above 83 percent is pretty much the name of the game

[haughty star]

not keep firing

[raven mountain]

Especially with rmb charge times

[nocturne dust]

Except when you normally only get 1 shot off before quelling, that's doubling your shots

[haughty star]

maybe fire one more time

and it's not even consistently always one more time lol

[nocturne dust]

Yeh sometimes it's more

It's +3 on EK from 0 to 100 bruh, if you edge it's 1 to 2

[haughty star]

your math isn't mathing there bruh

[nocturne dust]

It's 1 to 2 because you can cheat by shooting right before the border and not imploding

you only implode once you reach 100 and then fire

[haughty star]

if it's plus 3 across 100 percent in no universe does it work out to be one to two more from 83 percent

[nocturne dust]

Well for one, that's hard edging and most people have trouble even doing that (and it's not necessary either), and for two, that's why I said 1 to 2

which, btw, is doubling your shots

[raven mountain]

I guess if you're hard edging, you get more crit and benefit from the 10% rending

[nocturne dust]

1 + 1 = 2, which is double

even if it wasn't, it'd still be beneficial for DPS

[raven mountain]

But more more shots is more dps uptime. It's the exact same concept as clip size

[haughty star]

take for instance, the void strike, it takes roughly 3 seconds to charge it fully

[nocturne dust]

even if it added 1 to 100 it would still benefit DPS

[haughty star]

it takes just over a second to quell to 50 percent lol

[nocturne dust]

like idk how you can say it doesn't benefit dps

[haughty star]

in what world does the voidstrike benefit from that whatsoever

[nocturne dust]

Oh, now we're moving the goalpost are we?

[raven mountain]

Well, it's about 10-20% dps boost

[haughty star]

no you started this stupid argument over not wanting er on void lol

dumbass

[nocturne dust]

but we clearly moved to a general discussion

dumbass

[haughty star]

only because YOUR point of view is that ER is meta for literally everything

[nocturne dust]

Otherwise why would I bring up EK

[haughty star]

and it's not

[nocturne dust]

I didn't say everything

Gunker doesn't want it

[haughty star]

we even conceded earlier that it's good for surge dipshit

and here ya are still riding ERs dick for what?

[nocturne dust]

'we' being you, and you didn't as far as I recall but I can't be arsed to read your every crass message

[haughty star]

potato pointed out that it is pretty much meta for surge

[nocturne dust]

I'm not going to math out a second staff just for you.

[solemn moss]

Why not

[nocturne dust]

I'm lazy, and they don't deserve it.

[haughty star]

because you know you're wrong and youre a prick lol so you'll never admit it

foot is in the mouth and you don't wanna pull it out

[nocturne dust]

no u

No wait

You do it then

I mathed out one

why do I have to math out them all

You do it

[haughty star]

erm

[nocturne dust]

Dumby

[haughty star]

that was for warp res dipshit

you can't even remember what you argue about

pathetic

[nocturne dust]

It was also for ER, idiot

I literally posted those numbers too

Or did you conveniently forget to suit your argument?

[solemn moss]

I think you should kiss and make up

[nocturne dust]

It's almost like ER and warp res interact and part of the argument was including ER

[haughty star]

no, i will not accept those numbers as a argument for ER as it is subjective based on how survivable someone wants the build to be

you will never disprove ER's subjective nature

so just get over it lol

[nocturne dust]

Ok, dumbie

It is indeed true that 30% toughness regen is subjectively useful, you must play badly enough that you need it

[haughty star]

i'd be willing to bet you probably need it too and just blame your teammates for your failures

[nocturne dust]

I don't fail

[haughty star]

since we're throwing strawmen out

[nocturne dust]

You're really bad at betting. Don't take that betting sense anywhere.

[haughty star]

well get as good as @plucky flax and maybe you'll have proof of how good you are and like 30 people that follow you too

i don't need to prove shit. only to disprove that ER is an objective pick. which is pretty easy lol

[nocturne dust]

Lol, you really want me to start bragging and posting scoreboards? How come I never see any of yours

[haughty star]

because i don't think my opinion on subjective perk picks is the right one

[plucky flax]

Why me what did I do?

[haughty star]

i concede that i am nobody

[plucky flax]

I am just playing grim dawn man.

[nocturne dust]

You certainly rail against ER like you're right

[haughty star]

nothing man. just pointing out that you have proof that you're good

Just a league system similar to poe or diabloe.

Create a new character again and grind again.

<--- Has never played either of those

[haughty star]

man idk how ya'll got time for all these games lol

i like bounce between ones to use my 3 hrs a day on lol

[plucky flax]

Grim dawn is closer to classic arpg like titan quest and diablo 2. It's good game to play and wait until poe2.

Diablo 3 and 4 suck.

[nocturne dust]

Have you considered sacrificing other things for more hours? Like sleep?

[haughty star]

i got satisfactory, dayz, and space engineers i'm rotating this with rn

[nocturne dust]

[haughty star]

already do lol.

i operate on baby time which is about 4 hours a night being a good night of sleep

[nocturne dust]

Lmao, my body doesn't let me do that

It will knock me out if I don't sleep

not kidding man if you ever procreate the shits will change you

natural biological responses and all that jazz

[nocturne dust]

Maybe. I dun think I'll get children anytime soon tho so more game for me

[haughty star]

i take pto hours for new game releases at times lol

8 hours of child free gaming not at the asscrack of midnight

[nocturne dust]

I'm not that excited about game releases to do that, lol

I binge games when I decide to, not when they release.

because I don't want to buy them until they're on sale

[haughty star]

its usually updates for me. like i did for the most recent Space engineers update. shits dope

a PVP contesting point for everyone to dogpile finally without some crappy mods

mfw i melt a ship it took some bob 5 weeks to hand craft

[nocturne dust]

lol, I hate games like that where you can lose weeks of effort for nothing

[mossy oyster]

I call those

RUST-likes

[haughty star]

most people play it in like community servers or like friend group servers

[mossy oyster]

pvp space battles in SE sounds cool

if not jank and funny at worst

[haughty star]

but i can get set up in about 10-ish hours on a public server with a ship printer if i'm lucky on my resource grabs

my pvp ship is about 35k pcu so that leaves me like 30k for a base and 30k for a replacement

i hate pcu limitations

[haughty star]

yeah they're a trip. ship printers make it easy and carefree enough but a astounding amount of people don't use them and it's strange to me lol

Diablo 4 is ok, but only if you play it for the campaign

Endgame sucks and is extremely stale

[plucky flax]

Have you tried grim dawn? New dlc next year and titan quest 2 at some point too

[pliant tendon]

i kinda liked diablo 3 but i tried 4 and the writing was so bad i couldn't even finish the campaign lol, can't imagine the end game being as bad considering you don't have to suffer through the story

Nope, currently playing through the elden ring dlc, with the occasional dt and sm2

no

only improved

[nocturne dust]

Okay awesome LOL

[radiant frigate]

depending on whether or not you want to be challenged

[nocturne dust]

Some would say too OP

[strong gulch]

It's stronger now. Mettle was nerfed. So toughness regen took quite the hit, but that can be supplemented with other options and fire trauma has blazing spirit 4 now plus a node take lets you cast more freely.

[torpid girder]

blazing spirit 4 exists now??

[nocturne dust]

I don't really get the mettle nerf

and the true aim nerf

I will never hold my bad takes back

You cannot stop me dollar store Shadowheart

[radiant frigate]

i hate that it works so well with reconlas and colum🅱️us (vraks) iag

[tacit stump]

vraks mk 5 rifle

[nocturne dust]

gunker 🤮

I will only accept gunker when I don't have to aim with them

[radiant frigate]

you don't have to

point high frequency flashlight vaguely at reapers/bosses

they burninate to death 🔥

[nocturne dust]

Mmmmmm in my experience it doesn't work that great without weakpoint hits

but also I only tested it like once because gunker 🤮

[echo root]

The only class that can use space magic

[nocturne dust]

To be fair, it's Assailker in disguise

[radiant frigate]

magdump for free toughness reset

I HATE IT

[nocturne dust]

also am I missing something or is the boss damage not that great

[paper loom]

Did they change BB were you could "lock on" charge BB but look in a different direction?

To explain I remember targeting say a sniper then using bb behind cover

[nocturne dust]

No? You can still do that

[paper loom]

Hmm weird it seems to stop using it for me unless I have los

[radiant frigate]

it's alright

but it is mostly in the burn

[paper loom]

Also what is right click bb for compared to left click bb?

[radiant frigate]

rather than the direct pew pews

[nocturne dust]

well that's kinda eh

[radiant frigate]

precasting to blow someone's mind

[paper loom]

Ah crap then

[radiant frigate]

shutup it kills bonbon from any angle so it is GOOD

[nocturne dust]

so does purgatus

[radiant frigate]

at least that is what i keep telling myself

purgatus is a lot less mobile

[nocturne dust]

Just slide

🤷‍♂️

[radiant frigate]

why the uh, bretonnian dance

keep your feet on the ground

[paper loom]

I'm using purgatus atm it does seem slow , however if you get a smite psyker in your group I love it

Also using chain axe because I'm a sadist it seems

[radiant frigate]

also purgatus is definitely less boss damage than dumdum infernus reconlas/laspistol

[paper loom]

Noone use void staff anymore?

[nocturne dust]

I just used dumdum infernus recon las on the weakspot in testing

with true aim too

[atomic swan]

getting hit by an overhead in demonstration, i think he is the real tanner

[nocturne dust]

Blaze Away go bbbbrrrrrrrr

[radiant frigate]

it has been improved

[nocturne dust]

but also I use PF so maybe that's why

[nocturne dust]

which one

[radiant frigate]

PARTY FINDER 😤

penetrating flame

[nocturne dust]

nobody uses party finder 😭

[summer prairie]

recon is like >3x more boss dps than pure purg

[nocturne dust]

am I doing something wrong

cuz no it ain't

[radiant frigate]

skull issue

[paper loom]

I use the lightning staff for the machine gun build but I wonder why void isn't used for it

[echo root]

After having 5 different players leave instantly after making the worst play possible in Auric Mael I thought about it.

[radiant frigate]

21% extra crit chance on surge

[echo root]

But it's completely dead.

[paper loom]

But doesn't void have surge?

[radiant frigate]

i think that feature just came so late that people are just too used to jumping into QP

[radiant frigate]

surge (staff) i mean

[flint pawn]

surge surge

[radiant frigate]

now known as electrokinetic

[nocturne dust]

It does, but EK has crit bonus stat

[radiant frigate]

Yes

surge surge

[paper loom]

Wait the staffs have different bonuses?

[flint pawn]

SS

[nocturne dust]

surging to surge surgier

[radiant frigate]

Yes

[flint pawn]

hold up lemme screen shot my enemies

[paper loom]

Where do I see this?

[nocturne dust]

Different stats, yes

just in the inventory

🤷‍♂️

[radiant frigate]

you see this when you look at them

[echo root]

Might be a hot take, but if you DC you should be dead when reconnecting. You should also be queue banned if you abandon a game.
No more cheesing.

[paper loom]

Lol I assumed they were identical for all staffs

[radiant frigate]

"oh no i got netted and i am about to be saved, better leave"

[paper loom]

I was a gun psyker since release

[echo root]

Accept that you died instead of leaving and reconnecting

[nocturne dust]

The game forces you to DC like 90% of the time, shush

[flint pawn]

This is a hot take for sure

[radiant frigate]

no lie, one time i went back to save a teammate that got yoinked by a disabler, and like 1s before i was about to free them, he left

i almost died for that save

[flint pawn]

I would agree if it weren't for the number of "kicked because the servers felt like it lmao" I've gotten lately

[radiant frigate]

and then they rejoined :)

[tacit stump]

had yesterday a crash ingame rejoined after

[echo root]

I had an hour of peple just dcing first 3 min in aurmael, surely there should be some punishment.
(They dced when they got downed)

[radiant frigate]

so i politely let them know i will put them into a cauldron if they pull that maneuver again

[flint pawn]

I still think there should be a prevention measure for it of some kind but it's just like

[radiant frigate]

ASS brainrot

[atomic swan]

You will lose

is it hard to accept it

[flint pawn]

with how this game's servers are...

[radiant frigate]

i really do not like those penances

[flint pawn]

too many innocents caught in the crossfire for it to really work well rn

[echo root]

Server dcs are like 3% compared to how much fucking cheese I see.

[tacit stump]

private penances are butt pain

[flint pawn]

this is a tricky one for me

because when I see someone down and then dc I'm not fully certain

[nocturne dust]

An innocent man should never be struck for a criminal's crime.

[flint pawn]

because if you lag out, you don't immediately leave the game

[radiant frigate]

i may leave on occasion but usually that is because i no longer want to play

[flint pawn]

not always

[nocturne dust]

This ain't the imperium

No matter how you might wish it so

[radiant frigate]

not because i got yoinked by a disabler

[flint pawn]

like it happens with me all the time, and I know for sure because I play with my partner and his computer's right next to mine

I'll DC, and then look over and watch my own character down befoer leaving

[radiant frigate]

also, am i insane or is ds/trauma/assail/shriek the most "cover all your bases" build possible

[nocturne dust]

This is also true, when you lag out you are way likelier to get downed before lagging out

because you don't do anything

[flint pawn]

yeah, my character will be doing something stupid like nonstop walking in one specific direction or smth

initially I was quick to assume people were just rage quitting but now being on the end of experiencing it I'm a lot more willing to believe that people genuinely lag out, but down before they get replaced with a bot

[atomic swan]

watching crushers ascending

[flint pawn]

but of course there's still people just leaving because they got netted

[echo root]

Mostly it's people who run past every mob and then down 3 rooms ahead.

[flint pawn]

loner zealot core 😍

[radiant frigate]

siblings why am i watching the tanner uncanny videyo

[flint pawn]

tanner consumes all

[upper sun]

our lord and saviour tanner

[flint pawn]

the (brain)rot consumes

[radiant frigate]

i mean, tbf

tanner is comparing uncanny, which is very easy to stack with almost full uptime, to precog, which lasts for 2s on dodge (and also comparing with zealot dash which is 100% rending anyway)

[flint pawn]

I mean I personally prefer precog

[versed pendant]

who's Tanner?

[flint pawn]

local darktide femboy

[nocturne dust]

[versed pendant]

femboys are cool

[nocturne dust]

why are there wrong opinions in my chat

[upper sun]

#notallfemboys

[radiant frigate]

i think precog is fucked because it lasts for 2s

[flint pawn]

just wait until you see my ogryn builds..

[upper sun]

esp not that one

[radiant frigate]

and it also depends on dodging things

[versed pendant]

true, some are bad

[radiant frigate]

i would really just much rather run uncanny relentless

[upper sun]

yeah

[summer prairie]

precog also isn't doing anything if the crusher isn't targeting you

[flint pawn]

I don't really have issues with keeping precog up honestly, but I mean

[upper sun]

if were talking ds4

[flint pawn]

what's the word he used again

[upper sun]

uncanny relentless or precog thrust

[nocturne dust]

Precog would be comparable to uncanny if
checks notes
it wasn't precog

[upper sun]

but precog thrust is mostly zealot

[flint pawn]

nuance

[nocturne dust]

no

illegal

[flint pawn]

was that it

have I found the illegal word

[radiant frigate]

i hate mechanics that require me to be the target of my enemy to work

[upper sun]

thats a tea drinker word

[radiant frigate]

"oh no it's aiming at someone else, now my damage is shit"

[flint pawn]

I'm going to get myself banned from the psyker chat

[radiant frigate]

absolute GARBAGE

[flint pawn]

hey while I'm at it, carapace purgatus should be meta btw

[nocturne dust]

@plucky flax I did the thing. I used the 🅱️ istol. It sucks. I hate it. How can you like this thing?

😔

[versed pendant]

Force swords are my favorite

[plucky flax]

Bistol chooses people.
You are not fit for the bistol

[radiant frigate]

bistol? i think it ok

[summer prairie]

shame

[nocturne dust]

I admit the noise and 1-hit kills on some things is satisfying

but it's awful

the recoil, the sights, the shaking

🤮

[atomic swan]

precog is fine if you want your DS focus on boss damage

but ppl are more care about crushers because pack of crushers is a thing

[flint pawn]

that would do it, I don't have crusher problems lol

[summer prairie]

but again precog does nothing if it's not on you

[radiant frigate]

i like spawning 20 crushers in the psykhanium and stabbing them in sequence!!

[summer prairie]

which is most of the time

[nocturne dust]

The worst part is that the sights bug Fatshark tried to avoid by reducing the recoil is absolutely still there and I can feel it

[radiant frigate]

if you want your DS focused on boss damage
relentless strikes is right there

[flint pawn]

what is relentless strikes

[nocturne dust]

+power on hit iirc

[flint pawn]

best thing since sliced bread wtf

[nocturne dust]

You're wrong. The 🅱️istol isn't fit for me.

[torpid girder]

Wow, okay new psyker tree... what's weapon wield speed?

[nocturne dust]

trash

Swap speed

[flint pawn]

the time it takes to swap between weapons

[torpid girder]

Oh i'll ignore that then Lol

[flint pawn]

if the weapon has a little anim before you can use it

or as deadvoid said, garbage

[plucky flax]

No u

[atomic swan]

i just give you a reason to use precog and i agree "dodge to trigger something" sucks

[flint pawn]

Riposte is fine because 6 seconds

[radiant frigate]

up to +50% power on consecutive hits on the same target

[nocturne dust]

Exactly. I'm too good for the 🅱️istol. That's what I said.

[flint pawn]

buff precog duration 🙏

[radiant frigate]

this does absolutely nothing in hordes or when you hit a lot of different targets

BUT, the boss damage is funny

[flint pawn]

you're gonna make me make like 4 different dueling swords wtf

[radiant frigate]

i hate "dodge to make damage bigger" mechanics

[radiant frigate]

Yes

[nocturne dust]

Yeah, I used it in a 4-psyker squad on the twins and it was funny just poking them to death with 4 relentless swords

[flint pawn]

uncanny on one, precog on another, relentless on the third, agile memes on the fourth

[nocturne dust]

put uncanny on all of them

[flint pawn]

no

[nocturne dust]

[nocturne dust]

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

[flint pawn]

I will uncanny obscurus though

[torpid girder]

thoughts on this build for a blaze trauma/DS build? What should I change?

[radiant frigate]

i believe in a separation of church and state (or, in this case, defensive and offensive focus)
i hate duellist
i hate precog
riposte gets a pass because 6s is alright and i would take it over shred anyday
also fuck dclaw for this reason

[nocturne dust]

Get rid of souldrinker

[radiant frigate]

get crit aura

5% go brr

[nocturne dust]

add kinetic flayer

[nocturne dust]

no

[radiant frigate]

fym no

[nocturne dust]

waste of points

[torpid girder]

What should i replace to get crit flayer then?

[mild heath]

There's 3 things that works similar, but also have different timers
Precog - 2 seconds
Riposte - 6 seconds
Duelist - 3 seconds
When you run these on zealot (mk6 knife) it feels really stupid to keep up with them, it's strong yet annoying af

goddamn normalize them or something

[atomic swan]

kinda like aglie for my recon vet

[nocturne dust]

Blaze Trauma

Purgatus too

[strong gulch]

That's what I run

[radiant frigate]

duellist is okayish because it is a talent and not a blessing, so it is much less limited
it also has 50% longer duration

[summer prairie]

get rid of Mettle since it doesn't even work on trauma rmb unless you want it for your melee. Yes this means you'll get warp expenditure instead

[nocturne dust]

EK too

[radiant frigate]

precog is just dumb

[nocturne dust]

3 staves want the same build, lol

[torpid girder]

I thought souldrinker would be a good idea cuz i remember soulblaze actually killing alot of enemies when i played

but i'll copy that build

[flint pawn]

this is mine however take my builds with a grain of salt because I both suck and am a lunatic

[radiant frigate]

i do think souldrinker is a good idea for blaze trauma

[nocturne dust]

I mean, if you want toughness I guess

[torpid girder]

+5% crit >:)

[nocturne dust]

but trauma is a pretty safe weapon

[nocturne dust]

[radiant frigate]

since it spreads soulblaze a lot and gives more crit so you can get more soulblaze so you can get more crit so you can get more soulblaze so you can-

[nocturne dust]

If it stacked up to like, idk, +20% crit maybe

[torpid girder]

i'll take cd aura tho because i just like spamming shriek

[nocturne dust]

but 3 points is a hefty price otherwise

[flint pawn]

maybe the worst thing I've decided to make intentionally

[radiant frigate]

i would do something like this for blaze trauma (evil)

never take my advice!!

all my takes are bad!!

[nocturne dust]

No wildfire

[torpid girder]

actually yea you're right after checking what i'd be giving up

[radiant frigate]

you should engage in melee right NOW ⚡

[nocturne dust]

Fire on the fire build

[flint pawn]

wildfire bad

[nocturne dust]

Do it

[radiant frigate]

wildfire bad

[torpid girder]

warp rider/kd/psychic vampire 😭

[nocturne dust]

Well, I think you're dumb

so there

[flint pawn]

I may be dumb but I'm also stupid

[flint pawn]

70% damage is an intentional roll btw

alright let me have it

[radiant frigate]

i may stupid but at least i am not smart

[torpid girder]

empathic evasion isn't worth it?

[radiant frigate]

with trauma i wanna say hell no

[flint pawn]

I personally get a lot of value out of it

[radiant frigate]

i would not take EE without sg (because that kind of requires it)

[nocturne dust]

https://tenor.com/view/disappointed-zac-efron-im-not-mad-upset-hurt-gif-14717203

[flint pawn]

listen.

[nocturne dust]

no

[flint pawn]

I did the psykhanium testing beforehand.

[nocturne dust]

silence navi

[flint pawn]

I was actually precise with this one

[summer prairie]

79% defence breakpoint

[nocturne dust]

Purgatus

[flint pawn]

I just wanted more defences tbh lmao

[torpid girder]

welp! time to check if my veteran skill trees have also all disappeared

[flint pawn]

that's why that even exists

wanted to reduce push cost

[radiant frigate]

they most certainly did

[flint pawn]

and sprint cost

[nocturne dust]

https://tenor.com/view/disgusted-gif-7762659361595932548

[torpid girder]

at least my zealot is left untouched...

[flint pawn]

am I banned yet

[nocturne dust]

I don't have that authority

[flint pawn]

then get the authority

wtf. slacking

[nocturne dust]

The inquisitors said I talk about beloved too much

[torpid girder]

u know what veteran is lame anyways idc about my vet skill trees

[flint pawn]

I think laspistol vet is cool

otherwise sure

[nocturne dust]

I'd like vet if they had space magic

or infinite grenades

[strong gulch]

I want souldrinker for fire trauma, but it's so far away.

[nocturne dust]

that would be cool too

but they don't

[flint pawn]

I mean if you take demo stockpile + demo team you can get a ton of em

[nocturne dust]

https://tenor.com/view/ferret-hungry-cant-reach-donut-need-to-eat-gif-15831992

[radiant frigate]

yes beloved, hiding IS cheating

[flint pawn]

I like throwing out like 60 grenades a match

[nocturne dust]

It's not infinite tho

[radiant frigate]

la bomba

[strong gulch]

accurate 😭

[radiant frigate]

take my advice (evil)

[flint pawn]

skill issue, skill issue, skill issue

[radiant frigate]

you will most certainly not regret taking my advice

[nocturne dust]

https://tenor.com/view/skill-issue-skill-tissue-gif-22242558

[radiant frigate]

source? just trust me

[nocturne dust]

Take my advice and don't take my advice

which is it

if I take your advice and not take your advice, does that mean I took your advice?

[radiant frigate]

take my advice, which consists of not taking my advice

[nocturne dust]

[radiant frigate]

i advise you not to take my advice

what will you do?

your life is now a paradox

[flint pawn]

the answer is simple

[radiant frigate]

(this is how you cast brain burst btw)

[flint pawn]

I will use carapace purgatus

[radiant frigate]

it takes multiple casts vs ogryns because it takes a while for it to get through to them

[nocturne dust]

https://tenor.com/view/kuzco-kronk-confused-hesitant-hésitant-gif-22427187

[flint pawn]

can't brain rupture if you don't have one or need one in the first place

[nocturne dust]

No, it's because ogryn brain big

[flint pawn]

👍

[nocturne dust]

[radiant frigate]

upload 500 crossword puzzles into the enemy's brain with your mind to overload it

[flint pawn]

I still think Ogryns should be able to carry Psykers on their back

gets knocked off a ledge and both players die

[radiant frigate]

https://tenor.com/view/chogall-ogre-world-of-warcraft-dance-disco-gif-25966496

[flint pawn]

am I wrong

[radiant frigate]

no but i think it is only fair that we let the others sit on the ogryn's shoulders too

like little turrets on a tank

[flint pawn]

I think it should only be Psykers because Psykers are the friendliest to Ogryns

I also still think Ogryns should be able to pick up and move downed players out of bombs and fire

[radiant frigate]

i think vets are pretty friendly to ogryns too

[flint pawn]

actually you know what

that's fair

just discriminate against the zealots

no one likes them anyway

[radiant frigate]

wouldn't it be cool if the ogryn charge allowed you to pick up downed teammates on the way and carry them to sfaety

[flint pawn]

not even the charge, just let us take a node to do that in general

[nocturne dust]

when you replace friends with faith and now the ex-friends are mean to you

[radiant frigate]

big man charges through enemy lines, picks up boss and then resses them after

everybody happy

[flint pawn]

I concur

as I've said

[radiant frigate]

isn't the agitator reasonably nice actually

[flint pawn]

Ogryn is special, Ogryn deserves special privilege

Ogryn is big, Ogryn deserves big privilege

👍

[radiant frigate]

judge just, well, judges everyone

except fanatic

[flint pawn]

who's agitator again

[radiant frigate]

the fancy zealot

zealots have three flavors, master of mankind, beneficent emperor, and god-emperor

agitator is the master of mankind flavored zealot

[flint pawn]

ah

I remember now

I disagree

because Ogryns should not be called Slabs

👍

[radiant frigate]

there is also an exchange between agitator and loner, in which loner pokes fun at their grammar and says they try to talk fancy but don't actually know how

[flint pawn]

I think I know what one you're talking about

loner is psyker right

[radiant frigate]

Yes

[flint pawn]

yeah I remember lmao

[radiant frigate]

i do love the banter

[upper sun]

my favorite part is when the same personalities either clash or just cant stop glazing eachother

[flint pawn]

one of my favorites is savant telling the beloved psyker something about their dream and it being a potent symbiosis, which is replied with "How nice. I don't think I've ever been one of those before."

[upper sun]

slab is a compliment in 40k

[flint pawn]

is it

[upper sun]

yes

[flint pawn]

shows how much I know about warhammer

just ignore I ever said that

I don't make mistakes

[upper sun]

they frequently describe space marines as "slabs of muscle"

there are a lot of terms that get used frequently

[flint pawn]

listen

[radiant frigate]

loner and loner :)

[upper sun]

like salvo volley or many others

[radiant frigate]

perhaps i was testing YOU

[upper sun]

i love that one

[nocturne dust]

They don't do this enough

[upper sun]

ye

[flint pawn]

My partner is the warhammer nerd and I'm the unfortunate partner that was dragged into it against my will and now love it but that's besides the point

[radiant frigate]

ZHIS IS A BORING GAME

[upper sun]

some games ignore speech between males and females of the same personality but darktide leans into it

i love that

[nocturne dust]

I want two psykers to argue over Beloved's favorite way to kill a heretic

[radiant frigate]

it's a thing of beauty

[upper sun]

i want more lines about staves

[flint pawn]

Like the Fanatic with the Cadia Veteran, I think

[radiant frigate]

tell me, has your beloved any advice for us today?

[flint pawn]

something about being of few words

I think that's female cadia vet only

[upper sun]

i meant male and female savants and male and female loners

[radiant frigate]

what about the seers

[flint pawn]

wait there's exclusive between those?

[radiant frigate]

whose beloved is it..

[upper sun]

we dont talk about female seer

she doesnt exist

[flint pawn]

HOW NICE. I DON'T THINK I'VE EVER BEEN ONE OF THOSE BEFORE.

[radiant frigate]

OUR beloved

[summer prairie]

here's a bad video of in fire reborn and souldrinker both proccing on a bot kill when in not in coherency https://streamable.com/te3s7b

[radiant frigate]

which lc

and which savant 🤨

[upper sun]

male lc and female savant

there were a few lines like 5 rotations ago

[radiant frigate]

actually this makes so much sense

@remote bloom plays male lc and loves fem savant

isn't there also something about fem LC and one of the zealots?

[upper sun]

i have them somewhere

[hollow current]

I think it was something about the fem savant peering into his mind

[upper sun]

ye but shes just dodging them

[flint pawn]

you don't see it but there is a laspistol being held to you

[hollow current]

and he asked if she liked what she saw?

[radiant frigate]

your mind is full of regulations and duty, it's very grey, and very depressing

[upper sun]

arent skitarii half lobotomized

like

[nocturne dust]

Ogryns should be silent or something iirc

[upper sun]

nah

ogryns are another story

[hollow current]

that sounds like schizo/loner psyker

[upper sun]

theyre never consistant from book to book

you have more room

but admech are either too important to throw around or too lobotomized to have fun with

[nocturne dust]

I mean, we can be lobotomized

Zealots already are

[upper sun]

HAYOOOOOO

[flint pawn]

calm down

[sly sentinel]

Is there any special interaction between Electrokinetic staff and flak/carapace armour or am I misremembering things?

[flint pawn]

uhh

[upper sun]

kinda but not really

[nocturne dust]

Special? Not really

[flint pawn]

it's decent at taking them down

[upper sun]

it targets center mass

[nocturne dust]

It stuns them and does damage

🤷‍♂️

[upper sun]

which is flak for most enemies

[nocturne dust]

same as any enemy

[upper sun]

right click a dreg gunner and itll show up as flak
left click it and itll show up as unarmored

[sly sentinel]

I vividly remember something like reading at gameslantern that it has a higher crit chance or something over them

[flint pawn]

I just know the staff's pretty good at handling them

[nocturne dust]

No, that simply isn't the case as far as I'm aware.

[sly sentinel]

Eh, must be losing my mind

Remember my name if I suddenly disappear

[flint pawn]

they're mid-brain rupture

oh no

French accent ladies are neat

[delicate mirage]

I finally found a Psyker build that works for me!

[delicate mirage]

Lightning Surge, Venting Shriek, Warp Charge with Voidblast staff

[proper osprey]

Knife melee pysker is fun

[delicate mirage]

Definitely tempted to make a Las Pistol Psyker build using the right side of the tree

[proper osprey]

Faster than zealot and good damage

[bitter grove]

Looking for an assail-revolver-scrier's build, will this work?

[nocturne dust]

Warp splitting

is good

take it

drop the middle node from DD

(I mean I'd also get rid of battle meditation and the toughness on peril node above it)

and mind in motion is awful

take malefic momentum

[bitter grove]

Will the cleave perk do much with the fanning revolver?

[nocturne dust]

Assail benefits

Also the fanning revolver has some cleave now, so yes

[bitter grove]

Splendid

[echo root]

Wait, did they give cleave to the fan revolver?

Does Zarona still have more?

[nocturne dust]

yes

[nocturne dust]

yes

It only cleaves like 1 guy

[echo root]

Okay, do you know if the cleave talent is a % modifier of base cleave or does it just give X cleave per x% peril?

[nocturne dust]

% modifier

[echo root]

Okay so if a weapon has 3 cleave then you'll get 6 cleave at 100% peril.

[nocturne dust]

Something like that, I'm not entirely clear on the specifics of how it's calculated. It seems a little funky, staff lmbs cleave at a weird point near 100%.

[quartz barn]

You dont need kd

[radiant frigate]

no u

TTS kinda pointless on revolver

[bitter grove]

What would you take instead? One with the warp?

[radiant frigate]

instead of TTS? anything

i do run one with the warp on every build

[summer prairie]

how does staff lmb cleave even at 100%, it has 0.25 cleave

[woven garden]

Does no one go Smite Mace psyker?

[jovial juniper]

There's just better options than shock maul

Which is weird considering shock maul is pretty good

[woven garden]

Yeah like an extra 35% damage on all hits after the first seems crazy to me.

[radiant frigate]

i have never used shock maul

(i like pointy and sharp things) (shock maul is neither)

[summer prairie]

has this dmg distribution been fixed

[nocturne dust]

lies and deception

KD good

[quartz barn]

Kill build

Gets defence node

???

[nocturne dust]

Lmao

[radiant frigate]

defence node better than worthless node

also this feels a lot like mmobrain

[nocturne dust]

Imagine taking toughness regen nodes

on a kill build

Illegal

[radiant frigate]

"um akshully this is defense and you are not a tank, go do more dps"

[nocturne dust]

No defense
