The videos of EP smite doing EP smite things? I dun need to watch that

[haughty star]

these @nocturne dust

[lethal lagoon]

No no, you'll see.

Why KD when you can EP

[haughty star]

where he survives utter clusters without KD

[lethal lagoon]

Also smite won't pull DH unless you just straight up attack it directly

[haughty star]

i was almost certain it did now

[nocturne dust]

bosses exist

and sometimes you don't get to not awaken the DH

[green musk]

glad i could refine that more, cause now that i looked at it, i dont notice crits with lightning, if thats a thing

[nocturne dust]

It's important for an EK build but if you are going smite then yeaaaaahhh

Smite doesn't crit

[lethal lagoon]

summon them in the Pscyk and practice them like Dark Souls bosses

[green musk]

i use my staff a lot too, its a healthy mix of both

[haughty star]

i've always just grabbed cuz i still lean pretty hard on the staff

[green musk]

those aurics we were doing, i just wanted to make sure everything was at bay so i could live

[nocturne dust]

I don't need practice though, I already know their moves and can dodge, but blocking just works even in mixed hordes

[lethal lagoon]

"It just works"

[haughty star]

but knowing that enfeeble works on itself is interesting

smh, motherfucker over here about to create the Starfield of psyker talents

[green musk]

yeah, now its just a matter of "what do i want to use for this encounter"

[lethal lagoon]

[nocturne dust]

Hey, should we count up which of us goes down more?

[lethal lagoon]

Are we counting your pub games

[nocturne dust]

Only if we count yours.

Fine Print: You have to have pub games and if you don't go play them

[lethal lagoon]

I'm sure I can scroll back long enough to my pub games

[nocturne dust]

Aw well now that will feel unfair

[lethal lagoon]

why?

[nocturne dust]

You were just a wee tyke all the way back then

[lethal lagoon]

Cause I was running EP smite and just winning 9/10 games?

I did get ASS in pub after all

[nocturne dust]

So did I?

[lethal lagoon]

[quartz barn]

[nocturne dust]

I'm aware.

I saw.

[lethal lagoon]

Aware of what?

[nocturne dust]

I see everything.

[lethal lagoon]

[nocturne dust]

👀

[lethal lagoon]

Everything...?

[nocturne dust]

I have eyes in the back of your skull. It's kinda gross.

[lethal lagoon]

I.... have two "center spots" at the back of my head instead of one like most people

They grow like this when I get excited

[nocturne dust]

Quirrell backstory

[quartz barn]

Doesnt that just mean that you have a dent in the middle

[lethal lagoon]

[nocturne dust]

It's not a dent, it's an alcove where you can store yummy treats for later

Anyway, I always recommend kinetic deflection on Psyker. It's stupid useful to reposition/revive/push through the worst situations. Obviously your mileage will vary and it's definitely a personal thing, but I just can't not take it.

Nothing quite like being able to calmly dodge your way through literally everything all at once, and even take breaks inside the horde for tea and crumpets.

[tacit stump]

idk why but i dislike smiting

[nocturne dust]

You and a lot of people.

I'm pretty ambivalent towards it. It exists, is a thing. It does stuff. I might use it, I might not. Lol.

[quartz barn]

Depends on how its used imo

EP smite guy wiping out the room or chaining a big cara horde

[tacit stump]

only on gunker in certain situations

[quartz barn]

Stunbot who literally doesnt do anything else

[nocturne dust]

I've yet to be bothered by any usage of smite, other than the usual 'can you please stop sucking for 5 minutes' in pubs that isn't related to smite in particular but rather the wielder

[lethal lagoon]

no.

[tacit stump]

i use it for peril cycling to regain tougbess

[nocturne dust]

You're not that bad.

[quartz barn]

It only really sucks when you're basically running a 3 man

[haughty star]

i've had a smiter chew the time out because we weren't doing our jobs by killing his smited targets with base smite and bubble lol

team*

[tacit stump]

had one day a psyker who downed all the time on heresy difficulty

[haughty star]

some smiters are just

ugh

[nocturne dust]

Only people that annoy me like that are ones that just drop the moment I turn my back.

[quartz barn]

I like those

[nocturne dust]

Like, so quickly that it feels like they do it on purpose or have decided for some reason to jump from sedition to auric dam 💀

[quartz barn]

Free revives for penance

[haughty star]

i do anything heresy or up and just choose based on map and conditions

[flint pawn]

time to intentionally wipe the team with a barrel the moment you look away

[quartz barn]

Remember to say thanks in chat every time you pick someone up

[nocturne dust]

Ugh, I remember a guy saying 'oopsie teehee' after barreling 3/4 of the team including themself.

[haughty star]

i only like stg-histg or hidogs so if it means i have to play a heresy reg with the plebs i'll batter up

[flint pawn]

I've gotten good about not hitting barrels intentionally

[quartz barn]

Why play heresy tho

[tacit stump]

i play mostly auric heresy

[lethal lagoon]

[nocturne dust]

I hit barrels intentionally so others can't

[flint pawn]

but my favorite is when I hear a burster but don't see it and I'm swinging at a group of maulers/crushers and a burster jumps in front of me mid swing and I kill the entire team

[lethal lagoon]

[tacit stump]

that game bs

[haughty star]

heresy with pubs is usually harder than auric damn because 9/10 you have to do literally everything

[lethal lagoon]

Here have a rare Auric Hereserous outside their natural habitant. Look how they type without punctuation. That's a clear tell.

[quartz barn]

Tbf i already do that anyway

[lethal lagoon]

Jokes aside mate, you'll find way better pubs running auric t5s, to the point where they are sometimes easier than auric heresy pubs

[tacit stump]

i am to lazy for punctuation on discord generally

[lethal lagoon]

I was just looking for an identifying feature.

[haughty star]

and dd be kinda wonky sometimes lol. i've been finding the regular damnations at times are punching out more shit and/or in more mixed formation than most auric damns i've been doing

[nocturne dust]

yes, but they're so few and far between 😔

[lethal lagoon]

Next time you play, queue an auric heresy pub

It's a jungle out there

[nocturne dust]

I'll try to remember to do that

[tacit stump]

in heresy it feels like you can try stuff

[nocturne dust]

but I'll forget, and that's a promise

[lethal lagoon]

More like you can try-

[clear heath]

i can't remember if i've ever run auric heresy

[lethal lagoon]

[clear heath]

oh wait i did once to help level a friend

[lethal lagoon]

That was also me.

[lethal lagoon]

[flint pawn]

swings at a flamer that is directly in front of me
teammates shoots its back 0.1 second before my hit lands
fall off the map

[lethal lagoon]

Just to be clear, OnlySmites was level 1 and there the whole game.

[nocturne dust]

I ran auric heresy for a bit. NGL, I found it easier than auric dam and maelstroms, but that was around the penance update with the sea of noobs flooding upper difficulties.

[nocturne dust]

It is actually impressive how little they did

[lethal lagoon]

They... they pushed a few poxburters

You can see the 0 damage on the second board below

That's something

[flint pawn]

at least one of the bursters was damaged a bit beforehand too

by someone else

[clear heath]

wtf 5 kills 0 damage

[flint pawn]

a whole 1.7k damage worth done to poxbursters

hey they beat you all in defense score though just sayin

they kinda carried

and team score too

🔥

[haughty star]

i'm still just reeling over voidstrike

all this time i've spent on psyker and just too stubborn to try it lol

[nocturne dust]

environmental kills

[haughty star]

overall with dd i think i like it better than surge

[nocturne dust]

[runic juniper]

they were all specialist kills though

theres no way that game was as dumb as the scoreboard said it was

[nocturne dust]

Bro protecting the homies

[haughty star]

next i'm bringing glugger and indomitable shield oggy up to speed and then it's on to burga and trauma

i've done trauma but my trauma is 60 quell. was good back in the olden days with how it rolled out tho

[slate oasis]

had a game where a guy got mad and left because the two zealots were both using shroudfield. everyday people perplex me

[lethal lagoon]

lowkey I get that

sounds fucking awful

1 stealther offloading sudden, random, and poorly programmed aggro is bad enough.

2 is lots of death.

Or at minimum, not fun.

It would probably be OP, but stealth should really have like an aggro delay or something.

Get instantly meleed by something cause the zealot went wush is

[quartz barn]

Xbox moment

Been a long time since ive seen people actually get mad tbh

Also because i usually meme in chat if i chat at all

[upper sun]

stealth should be reworked

it should be an ability thats more engaging gameplay wise

smite, chorus, stealth and smokes need to be reworked

[quartz barn]

Smoke is fine atm

[tacit stump]

i like zealot stealth though

[quartz barn]

But disliked because people cant see lmao

[frozen loom]

just see 4Head

[quartz barn]

Same thing when you play a vent purge or lights out mission, theres always the one guy dying because they cant see

Like bro

[upper sun]

i hate smokes so much its unreal

either 1) the vet never uses them
2) spams all game and we add vent purge as a modifier
3) uses them at gunners feet and i go in as a zealot and still die because they dont work

[quartz barn]

We should duo queue sometime

[upper sun]

the only use for them is throwing them at your feet and letting your team reposition

[quartz barn]

I still need the vet smoke grenade penance too so win win

[upper sun]

blocked

muted

reported

stealing ur lunch

[quartz barn]

[upper sun]

i hate smokes so much bros....

give vet a landmine or some shit

imagine stealthing puting a few mines in a petrols path

[tacit stump]

throwing him into the abyss by shooting barrels near him

[quartz barn]

Breaks wall

[upper sun]

then stealing back to the team

[upper sun]

GOOD

[quartz barn]

Spawns 3 glubbies

[upper sun]

id rather die than see smokes

[quartz barn]

?

[upper sun]

smoke only belongs IN MY LUNGS

[quartz barn]

But you cant see with smoke

[tacit stump]

tox gas bombers incoming

[upper sun]

at least him i can kill

my vet not so much

[tacit stump]

what do we think?

[tacit stump]

nice smite trap

[summer prairie]

not bad

penetration of the soul should be neutral/weak (even assuming it worked)

and smite is actually Excellent

even if kind of ruins the game depending on use

assail also excellent

[quartz barn]

Disagree with channeled force, its extremely strong, but the build and playstyle are very weird

I also dont know what the lmb build even is, but saw someone use it a few days ago and outdamaged me while i ran trauma

Both ended up with 1.3m dmg+

Average length AM, so about 25-30 min

[summer prairie]

LMB builds are no fun due to the difference between macro quell cancelling and normal play

[quartz barn]

Ye like i said the playstyle is weird

[upper sun]

im not much of a harvest enjoyer tbh

[summer prairie]

it's more like Good, but hard to afford

[tacit stump]

i use more often thr peril generation reduction there but maybe worth a swap with the one new perk empyric resolve

[summer prairie]

Not sure I would take Purloin Providence even if it was 100% chance to quell 15% peril on a marked enemy kill

[dull osprey]

essence harvest excellent

fucking lmao

puppet master vs quell speed

hot dang some hot takes

[upper sun]

ye i agree

im not big on harvest and given the choice i take quell over aura

[radiant frigate]

what are they supposed to do exactly

[flint pawn]

prevent you from waking up daemonhosts approximately 41.8% of the time

[dull osprey]

think of it as a some ways better psyker dome

but it needs ammo

[radiant frigate]

does it stop flamers

[dull osprey]

yes

honestly its one of the abilities in the game which actually requires some thinking so obv 99% of the playerbase will call it shit

also there are 2 sides of every smoke grenade

the side who has mods to disable smoke

and the wrong side

[flint pawn]

it is good

if it works

and usually it does

usually.

[dull osprey]

yeah it has potential to be much stronger than any of the nades in the game but also has situations where you just straight up wish you took krak or frag

[flint pawn]

and then you throw it as per usual to handle a gunner shootout and then they're just like "lol. lmao." and keep firing through it

[radiant frigate]

"smoke means taking cover, keep shooting"

[upper sun]

make gunners not shoot you

(they dont work)

[radiant frigate]

worthless

[upper sun]

the idea as you throw them at your feet and move sightly to the left

[radiant frigate]

vet is already bulletproof

[upper sun]

but people throw them at gunners and go melee

which does not do anything to gunners

and make trapper malfunction and insta gib you

i hate smokes so much 😭

[quartz barn]

Not fully true

[summer prairie]

Purg blaze away KF is a fairly amazing boss dps increase since it hits for like 3400+ at high peril. Or with EP KF you hit for 4.9k+

(though that number is slightly inflated by the dot tick probably)

[quartz barn]

Smokes cause gunners to run towards you

[summer prairie]

EP is just a free damage buff to KF since it doesn't even cost a stack

[quartz barn]

So its basically like bubble, either place it on top of yourself to hold your ground, or on top of enemies to move towards them

Cant say much about the smoke radius however

[brisk vine]

Ive had my doubts about this class for quite a while, but my third eye has now opened.
just fucking kill them and dont die.

psyker is so broken

[summer prairie]

If you are at >97% peril and KF is supposed to trigger, it doesn't but it still goes on cooldown, rather rude

[radiant frigate]

Death

[summer prairie]

KF getting buffed by your weapon perks and blessings makes it a bit stronger than just a free BB

EP KF one-shots a crusher with some buffs

At armoury exchange, quite decent

[tacit stump]

upgrade before use

[tired estuary]

Honestly don't lmao minimum warp res is optimal

[tacit stump]

but finesse and damage

[ornate hamlet]

Upgrade like twice maybe

[tacit stump]

^

[summer prairie]

it's still generating 42.2% peril after two upgrades yeah

[tacit stump]

for peril cycling or high peril gaming

[ornate hamlet]

el periloso

[summer prairie]

mostly useful with my bistol build, peril generation with assail isn't always ideal

[tacit stump]

thats why i use smite as gunker

just to generate peril quickly

[summer prairie]

the build is like 70% assail, that wouldn't be the same

[tacit stump]

oh

[flint pawn]

shoutout to whoever this +3221 psyker is

This is amazing. Thanks for this

[upper sun]

im 99% sure you know better than the person that made it

but you're welcome

[quartz barn]

Its hard to tell whats objective and subjective

Obviously theres builds that make certain things work, but this pic just goes off of the skill on its own

KD is a good example, great skill, but imo a trap if you're good enough

[restive slate]

HELP

I cant change one specific loadout slot for some reason. Can change talents but not weapons

[summer prairie]

delete it?

[paper lily]

aint no way smite is a trap

that ability is broken

[true rover]

its not killing anything quickly

[paper lily]

it absolutely does kill quickly

it kills anything that isn't basically crushers or bosses insanely fast with the correct build

[broken carbon]

@lethal lagoon

i summon thee

post thine clips

[true rover]

killing chaf is all well and good but it isn't the chaf that gets you. personally I think smite is great for elleviating pressure, locking everything in whilst others take the kills

[jovial juniper]

Smite is strong
Just bad players giving it a bad name

It also has the potential to kill crushers with the right build

[paper lily]

it can for sure kill crushers

[jovial juniper]

It's going to depend on battle meditation procs

[paper lily]

but i'd prefer to just ds4 them or w/e

[jovial juniper]

Or a single red stimm

[paper lily]

i have so many 1m+ damage 0 dmg taken scoreboards with smite and it only got buffed

[broken carbon]

after like 3 years

[paper lily]

it got buffed so hugely it's actually unreal

[broken carbon]

dorn did a smite only run

4 smite psykers on one crusher lmfao

[paper lily]

were they running ep at least

[broken carbon]

yeah

[tacit stump]

how long doesit take

[broken carbon]

no clue

ask dorn

[paper lily]

too fuckin long

[tacit stump]

maybe over a hour

i am used to 35 min runs

[paper lily]

but yeah ep smite basically got warp charges for -peril now and its like

idk there's no way that isn't by far the best psyker ability

[mossy oyster]

scriers sweep

[tacit stump]

i use it only on gunker when gaze is on cooldown to cycle peril

or when hound horde comes

[wintry niche]

Anyone use a combat blade? What stat should be dumpstat?

[paper lily]

i just scream at hound hordes

[mossy oyster]

mobi

[restive slate]

That helped thanks

[quartz barn]

Mobi dump on knife is kinda tragic, but every other stat affects dmg or crit so....

[quartz barn]

Need more speed

[wintry niche]

I can almost stop pestering people with it 🤣

[queen fog]

You say pester, I call it aiding in kills

[hollow jolt]

have a macro spam chat "KILL" while you're smiting

[wintry niche]

They're not getting it even when I specify "I'm almost done with my smite achievement, so if you see me lighting up heretics, just whack em in the face please"

[radiant frigate]

are you doing eepy smite flame shriek

[queen fog]

They’re too used to the enemy moving towards them that when they’re at a standstill, there’s a bit of processing that needs to be done

[wintry niche]

Idk in my zealot days I immediately got it when psykers started smiting the heretics

That means bonk time!

[queen fog]

Well sadly not every zealot has your brain

So that’s to be expected

[radiant frigate]

there is also the case of "they're not currently a threat so i will kill other more threatening things"

[wintry niche]

I'd buy it if that were true

But when all the elites get whacked by me switching to staff, I'm leaning towards skill issue

[radiant frigate]

skull issue

[queen fog]

Staff and skill issue in the same sentence?

[jovial juniper]

"Smite will kill those enemies so I'll do something else"

[wintry niche]

Bingo

[quartz barn]

Simply always play as a loner and clear enemies ahead of the team

[zinc phoenix]

"fuck this smite nerd i'll leave these things to kill him"

that's usually my go to reaction

i'm fine with the surge smite shriek builds that actually do damage but most smite users are one brain short of a person

and i am perfectly happy to let them die so they fuck off

[radiant frigate]

the lights are on but no one's home

[quartz barn]

Bad player = revive farm

[queen fog]

I tried this on a tier 3 malestrom and I was the only zealot standing for a solid 2 minutes, baby bosses kept fucking up my squad

I definitely got like 5+ rescues that mission

[quartz barn]

I mean you obviously weave in and out of the team

[queen fog]

That I didn’t do

[quartz barn]

Difference between an ok and good knife zealot imo

[queen fog]

When tunnel visioned to penace farm anyone will fumble tactics imo

Behind enemy lines got a lot of kills that mission but it was still a failure lol

[quartz barn]

Ye but my penance farm is mission clears atm

Was kinda scuffed yesterday

[queen fog]

Best of luck with that then if u intend to pub your way through

[quartz barn]

Loaded into a mission failed lobby

Called ppl bad for funs

[radiant frigate]

should i do the ASS/AE penances

[quartz barn]

Load into next mission

Same people....

[zinc phoenix]

yeah its pretty straightforward

pick an easy maelstrom and nope out of obviously stupid teams

[quartz barn]

Hard carried the run tho

[hollow jolt]

wait for Rolling Steel Maelstrom UwU

[zinc phoenix]

or play with people who are actually good and do whatever maelstrom because you'll just win win win

[hollow jolt]

easiest ASS of my life

[quartz barn]

I just queue am regardless

Im good enough to solo anyway

[radiant frigate]

epic

i am not

[zinc phoenix]

on loner knife zealot 🤷‍♀️

[quartz barn]

Main difficulty is running bad weapons as im maxing masteries too

[zinc phoenix]

ugh weapon grind

[radiant frigate]

can't relate i was immediately declared master of all weapons when the update dropped

i guess i did a good job filling out my sticker book

[quartz barn]

I had most at 13 minimum

But ive never used things like the shotty

But eh, ending up with in inv of perfect weapons is kinda cool

[nocturne dust]

[quartz barn]

You can also do it like i did and have a chaos spawn appear and then get abandoned by your friends, solo it

[left basin]

riiight its fucking private now

[quartz barn]

Always has been

[nocturne dust]

no

[hollow jolt]

reddit moment

[quartz barn]

Let me guess, Beta didnt have private

Actually people did just a flesh wound in regular damn runs

[flint spear]

Yea before they patch the consignment yard door glitch

[left basin]

in beta it was 100% damage

that's where i decided to do it, and then woke up to it being 90%, and then getting down to what it is rn and private

i was mildly mad when it happened because it involved 3 people waiting for me in a zone with me kiting a slug (i think) around a thing

just randomly happened upon 3 psykers doing psyker penances and did all the psyker penances with them in a span of a very annoying day

back when warp stacks fell off all at the same time

i still harbor a wild animosity towards veterans

[quartz barn]

The 90% was private too

Thats when i did it

[green musk]

morning spark heads

[primal aurora]

Why zealots and vets got duel swords, but psykers haven't got bolters?

I would even settle for a kickback or a rumbler

[indigo maple]

I think if a non-Ogryn fired a Kickback, they’d turn into a person-shaped splat on the wall behind them

[queen fog]

It’s like tryna pass a guardsman a space marine sized bolt gun, you’re just asking them to off themselves

[haughty star]

THEY gave everyone the DB

basically kickback for all

[ripe bluff]

is scriers surge staff good for auric?

[green musk]

https://tenor.com/view/graha-tia-final-fantasy-xiv-ffxiv-ff14-endwalker-gif-24078505

[ripe bluff]

not the meme machine gun build, just regular charged shots surge staff

[haughty star]

is your name from that one space game

x4

[primal aurora]

Nah, it's from folklore. It's been used in various forms in different fictions. One version was touched upon in Dresden files book series as a leader of WIld Hunt, but that isn't its usual representation.

[haughty star]

ohh ok

ya i'd heard it elsewhere too just wasn't sure if you were an x4 enjoyrer

helluva game

[primal aurora]

I'm more of a Freelancer fan. X series was a bit too time consuming and hard to get into for me.

[ripe inlet]

worst penance, and I've done all of the vet ones which are arguably more grindy

[primal aurora]

Eh, smite penance isn't that hard. It sucks if you really hate playing support role though.

[ripe inlet]

It's not playing support, is not killing anything

[prime elk]

Smite can kill stuff if built for it

Just a bit boring

[jovial juniper]

It is as long as you get your target priority right

Or know how to target important targets amidst a horde

Max height still winning

🗣️

[ripe inlet]

you know what else can kill stuff? literally everything else
and you don't even need to "build for it", they're just made for killing and you can be better at it or worse, but you're still gonna kill shit dead

but not smite

no, that one's just for being a nuisance

[drifting elk]

yeah like maybe a poxwalker if you use 80% of your peril

[prime elk]

Sounds like you didn’t build it right

[prime elk]

Look if I’m running surge and Deimos, I’m not going to be using those for horde clear

[drifting elk]

sounds like youre a stupid idiot baby child boy

[drifting elk]

why would you even do that

[prime elk]

https://tenor.com/view/waltergotme-gif-18867690

[drifting elk]

theyre both single target elite damaging weapons

[prime elk]

Because I want to and it’s fun

And smite kills hordes anyway

[drifting elk]

im nog arguing with a smite psyker bro

[prime elk]

You’re saying that to a guy who runs smite prob no more than 10% of the time lol

[south gull]

Why anyone run anything but Trauma staff/Blazing

[drifting elk]

more than you should. lol

[summer prairie]

it's high damage

[clear heath]

sorry you are already tainted by smite

[prime elk]

🤷‍♂️

I just play whatever I feel like

Cba to give a shit anymore

[ripe inlet]

Deimos isn't that bad for hordes and neither is surge
specially if your only other option is smite, compared to that they're great options

[prime elk]

Smite clears faster than either of those options.

[solemn moss]

lol hate on smite as much as you want, but this is just stupid

[ripe inlet]

no, your team clears it faster after getting tired of your palpatine cosplay

smite ain't do shit

[prime elk]

Skill issue

[drifting elk]

SMITE???? SKILL ISSUE?????? youre insanely funny

[prime elk]

I get why people hate smite but it really has gone into seething territory

[prime elk]

Yeah I find it hilarious too. Not being able to make smite work. Yiiiiikes

[upper sun]

not true

[plucky flax]

#stopsmitehate

[prime elk]

I use smite with shriek

So that’s prob worth mentioning

[upper sun]

shriek clears faster than deimos

not smite

[prime elk]

Ok but I use both

[south gull]

[summer prairie]

EP smite on its own isn't even bad dps when there are plenty of targets, 150-200dps per target to everything in your LoS

[prime elk]

I think people just want to blindly hate on it. I get that it’s dumb and boring but it’s still effective.

[drifting elk]

150 dps is pathetic

[prime elk]

And it’s not cheese unlike certain options

[summer prairie]

it's higher than what you can do with your weapon of choice

since it's hitting dozens of targets

maybe not purg but it does what purg does but better

[drifting elk]

you do more by pressing f with shriek. or m2 m1 with literally any staff besides surge. just kill them like oh my god

[summer prairie]

shriek doesn't do more dps than that

[drifting elk]

source?

[summer prairie]

6 stacks of SB certainly does not do 150-200 dps

[glacial socket]

6 stacks of SB you dont have activly channel to do damage with

[drifting elk]

it also doesnt require your teammates to babysit you while you hold onto enemies that you are not killing

[summer prairie]

True, but you can also have shriek with smite

I don't understand why you need someone to babysit when you hav esmite, you can clear the whole map solo

[prime elk]

Yeah you’re not taking one or the other

[glacial socket]

To me that feels like going a bit to hard on horde clear

[summer prairie]

only bosses can be awkward

[prime elk]

Shriek and smite is pretty damn effective, if boring

[clear heath]

you still have actual weapons for not horde clear anyways

[prime elk]

Let’s me run whatever the fuck I want for weapons

[clear heath]

everything that was just mentioned isn't including the two weapons you get. I don't see how that's "a bit too hard on horde clear" when 0 weapons are dedicated to it

[glacial socket]

fair, whenever I run smite/shriek it just feels very uninteractive

[clear heath]

i hate how smite is designed but i'm not gonna act dilusional with how ep smite scales with target count

[drifting elk]

WHY WOULD YOU EVEN DO THAT LIKE JUST USE YOUR ACTUAL WEAPON

[summer prairie]

what

[drifting elk]

just take brainburst for when youre eventually going to get killed by gunners and snipers by running this

[plucky flax]

STOP SHOUTING

[upper sun]

NO

[clear heath]

you could use your weapons for other things, like low target situations

[fathom totem]

Everything has a utility. If you can't see that. That's on you.

[upper sun]

EVERYONE SHOUT LOUDER

[drifting elk]

you are european

[jovial juniper]

Ranged weapon has ammo limitations
Melee has range limitations

Guess what smite has

Lol

[upper sun]

both!!!!

oh wait........

[jovial juniper]

[glacial socket]

Smite simply feels basic to play with, I feel like I could be doing more whenever I use it

[clear heath]

clearly we should all act dilusional and say smite does nothing so fatshark buffs the damage and everyone just uses smite

would be very fun for everyone im sure

[jovial juniper]

Real

300% damage smite when

[glacial socket]

Fatshark please

[upper sun]

so tru so tru

[zinc phoenix]

Yeeeeeep

[upper sun]

buff smite

[jovial juniper]

Might not even need battle meditation procs to kill crushers

[drifting elk]

you literally are a magic wizard with staves that stun and deal damage to enemies

[glacial socket]

pre-fix EP smite please

[jovial juniper]

Yeah and my hands do that

[plucky flax]

[jovial juniper]

🗣️

[upper sun]

smite so week

plz buff

plz mang

[jovial juniper]

It's so peak

[glacial socket]

Im not a game dev but I would enjoy it if it was a sort of chain lightning blast instead of a channel

[glacial socket]

maybe like doctor esc from DBD

[drifting elk]

they do not. they make some enemies stand still and make you feel really important for doing so when you couldve used any staff and done the same with more damage. have fun thinking youre an asset to anyone

[clear heath]

it being a channel just makes it so boring to use

[glacial socket]

so real

[clear heath]

holding a button to make the enemies also less interactive is a recipe for boredom

i'm not doing anything, they're not doing anything
what even is the gameplay?

[glacial socket]

the only blitz in the game that makes feel like im somehow doing less

[jovial juniper]

They do
Even kill packs of bulwarks with the proper build

[clear heath]

they really need to just rework smite entirely

[zinc phoenix]

I’m not sure spamming the button to maintain the channel would be an improvement

[drifting elk]

you can kill bulwarks with any build this proves nothing

there are multiple staves that knock over and stun and damage bulwarks

[jovial juniper]

This proves that smite can kill

[drifting elk]

video?

[solemn moss]

You are deranged

[drifting elk]

without empowered psyionicssics

[clear heath]

true
i was more thinking of something that's more of a short burst that you can't spam so you aren't just doing it constantly

[drifting elk]

you are retreated

[clear heath]

overall i enjoy stuff that encourages using different tools over just repeatedly using 1

[summer prairie]

so bad against ragers, need someone to babysit https://streamable.com/jh4mzv

didn't even have EP

initially

[clear heath]

i wouldn't mind if smite was like a stun burst that recharged like assail did but obviously way slower and less stacks

[drifting elk]

this is literally a showcase of shriek doing damage and smite disrupting the flow of the game. you dont even have healthbars because you know this

[clear heath]

i guess not too different to vet having a nade for crowd control every minute

[summer prairie]

do you know how much damage it is doing when it is hitting 50 targets

[upper sun]

what if smite was a single target quick cast stun

[clear heath]

a short stun blast every 40 seconds or so would be cool

[summer prairie]

it's doing more damage than you for sure

[azure parcel]

well, I didn't know there was THIS much rage against a random ability in the game

[summer prairie]

it's a fair point that it makes the game unfun

[upper sun]

imagine if you could hold down a crusher while you beat him with a sword

[azure parcel]

some people need to touch grass for real

[drifting elk]

uses damage stim beforehand "SEE IT DOES DAMAGE!!!!1!1!1!1!"

[jovial juniper]

Yeah smite can kill

[crisp yacht]

Make smite a skill shot. Charge up lightning and release a cone like shriek. But shorter range and like a 2s stun.

[upper sun]

it disables the game

for everyone

[azure parcel]

I mean.. I could say the same for VOC/Plasma Vets?

[upper sun]

it pushes eneimes while you're trying to land headshots

voc has a cooldown

[glacial socket]

there has to be so many things in place for smite to work well

[upper sun]

smite doesnt

[azure parcel]

(I have played VOC/Plasma Vet and it really does trivialize the game sometimes)

[clear heath]

some of the enemies still attack when there's a voc vet
although i guess not really if there's 2 of them

[azure parcel]

which you can almost entirely negate because lul haha -6s CD per elite kill

[glacial socket]

smite takes you out of the fight and requires you to run shriek and/or EP to make it worth stitting still for 10 seconds

[clear heath]

tfw when there's 2 voc vets and it becomes physically impossible to die

[azure parcel]

real

[glacial socket]

true

[drifting elk]

youre so very facetious and an overall unlikable human being. have fun throwing your games

[upper sun]

its note elite

[summer prairie]

It's bizarre how there are simultaneously people who say it's shit and people who say it just makes the game trivial

(it makes the game trivial)

[glacial socket]

in my experience it makes the game boring for me

[prime elk]

Tbf it can be both

[jovial juniper]

I'm not throwing
Unlike you that can't build a proper smite

[prime elk]

It makes the game shit to play for everyone involved

By trivializing much of the game

[glacial socket]

wow I love standing still

[drifting elk]

i dont build for smite at all

[prime elk]

dw we can tell

[jovial juniper]

Then why are you saying that smite can't kill

[azure parcel]

if anything, my point is just that being this mad about a specific ability is kinda . It's not like you have to deal with it EVERY SINGLE MATCH or something.

[glacial socket]

I would much rather run a Purg staff than smite (I know they are different slots)

[jovial juniper]

You don't have the knowledge for this topic

[prime elk]

https://tenor.com/view/both-agree-yes-good-gif-4591420

[jovial juniper]

You should avoid it

[clear heath]

i would just like a more fun lightning ability

i like lightning

[glacial socket]

I have a solid amount of hours on psyker

[drifting elk]

because it cant. and if it does its with conjunction with something actually doing the damage. hope this helps

you can use a red stim on anything and kill

[jovial juniper]

But it does kill

[glacial socket]

I love the fantasy of the class, Huge Ksons fan, all im saying is the ability feels uninteractive to use

[drifting elk]

like i said youre a facetious person

have a day where youre alive

[jovial juniper]

And you don't know what you're talking about

[clear heath]

i feel like this comes from a person who only looks at default smite and ignores the fact that ep literally triples the damage

[jovial juniper]

Why do you feel

[glacial socket]

base smite dont do damage though

[jovial juniper]

They said they don't build smite

[prime elk]

I think he just wants to hate on it to hate on it. Don’t waste your time lol

[drifting elk]

use a real build

[glacial socket]

you have to have so many different things in place to enable smite to work

[prime elk]

Not really

EP alone does most of the work

[clear heath]

I don't play smite builds often either.
I'm just not dilusional about how it works. Ep smite does do damage

[glacial socket]

I feel with the amount of effort someone has to go through to make smite work well its so unnecessary when there is other options

[summer prairie]

it's the lowest effort playstyle

[glacial socket]

yea if you have EP, Shriek, stim for smite yea its gonna do damage but not because of smite

[near drift]

It's very boring but can work just fine

[summer prairie]

you don't need a stim

and the rest is just a basic build

[clear heath]

the stim is just 25% more damage isn't it?

[glacial socket]

and less peril gen

[jovial juniper]

There's a difference between hating something and actually spreading misinformation

[near drift]

That's why you do nurgle blessing maelstroms to scare away brain off smiters

[jovial juniper]

I will not stay here and let they say smite can't kill

[glacial socket]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-cat-meme-ptsd-war-emotional-gif-2730913392879312174

[drifting elk]

smite cant kill

[jovial juniper]

It can

[glacial socket]

the battle of "nuh uh"

[upper sun]

smite so week

pls buff smite

[glacial socket]

Sharkskinny pls buff smite

[clear heath]

so true

[glacial socket]

Also I dont know yalls consensus on this but I WANT ANOTHER STAVE

[drifting elk]

bring back coruscation

[clear heath]

i'm sure literally every psyker wants more staves

[jovial juniper]

Smite can kill

[glacial socket]

their has been a good amount of new weapons that have come out and not one stave

[clear heath]

yeah we've had the same ones since launch

[jovial juniper]

They need to rework SAP first

Then buff blaze Trauma

[drifting elk]

delulu

[prime elk]

Yah fair

[jovial juniper]

Uninformed

[drifting elk]

lol

[clear heath]

you're fighting a losing battle if you wanna get rid of darktide misinfo
don't let that stop you though

[glacial socket]

bitch we in the imperium we love disinformation

[clear heath]

even the game itself tries to spread misinformation sometimes

[jovial juniper]

🫡

[fathom totem]

Heresy! The Imperium is always right!

[clear heath]

I've said this 4 times but why does rampage still say damage?

[glacial socket]

PRAISE BE THE MASTER OF MANKIND

[drifting elk]

keep telling yourself that

[jovial juniper]

I'm not telling myself that
I already know it can kill
Unlike you

[clear heath]

rampage blessing was changed to power last year and they even did an overhaul on power descriptions
how the fuck has this still not been fixed?

[summer prairie]

maybe because it only buffs melee power and they are confused

[drifting elk]

i am so sure babes. lol

[clear heath]

i'm never letting the rampage thing go

[summer prairie]

but so does thrust and such so doesn' t really explain

[clear heath]

They changed how it works, bugfixed it, changed descriptions for similar blessings on a wide scale
and they still didn't fix the desc

[jovial juniper]

Yeah so sure that you don't know how smite can kill

[glacial socket]

yap yap yap, smite this smite that

[drifting elk]

lol

[upper sun]

when is the next all smite maelstrom

smh

i need some brainrot

[jovial juniper]

Ask D*rn

[upper sun]

dorn doesnt do the same bit twice

[ripe inlet]

you're still arguing over this

||and smite still hasn't killed anything||

[vague bloom]

brain rupture or assail build ?

[upper sun]

it killed my will to live

[upper sun]

depending on the build

[vague bloom]

dont know which i want to do

new to class

[upper sun]

are you level 30 yet?

[vague bloom]

nope

[upper sun]

then id go assail

it has great clear at lower threat levels prolly does better than most of the lower level weapons

[steep estuary]

Dunno what I should change, if anything on this

[strong gulch]

If this is for a non SG build or if this is your boss damage option, I'd change shred to relentless strikes.

It's good either way.

[steep estuary]

I have it on a couple non SG builds, but is typically my go-to option for bosses yeah.

[strong gulch]

Then yeah, I'd put relentless strikes on it. You can always change it or make another if you want to.

[steep estuary]

I have a second one with 60 instead of 61 cleave lol

[ripe inlet]

dumping mobility instead of cleave would be nice

[steep estuary]

Noted, I'll keep an eye out

[strong gulch]

Cleave damage is the main dump.

[ripe inlet]

yeah, nah

[strong gulch]

It doesn't add much damage and is bugged.

[steep estuary]

Wait really?

[ripe inlet]

damage is damage

the other options adds nothing of value, so damage is better

[strong gulch]

You go get the 5 extra damage on the second target. 🫡

[steep estuary]

I kinda like having the zoomies though

[summer prairie]

penetration does pretty much nothing when you have uncanny up

[strong gulch]

More dodge distance and whatnot is nice. It's a marginal difference either way.

[ripe inlet]

which then get multiplied by weakspot and crit

[strong gulch]

You do you. It's been the meta dump for a long time.

[analog agate]

Wait. You guys are hitting multiple targets with the ds iv?

I have been using it so wrong this whole time

[steep estuary]

Lmao most i'll do is swing wildly at head level to clear some trash mobs sometimes

[strong gulch]

You can ye. It's not the most reliable at it, but we also have warp splitting now.

[jovial juniper]

4.5 cleave on lights

[summer prairie]

60->80% cleave damge is a bit over 6% more first target damage to unarmored

[jovial juniper]

The cleave damage distribution is atrocious though

[steep estuary]

You can take the cleave talent to help anyhow, no?

Uhhh Warp Splitting

[analog agate]

Yeah. I should have put a /s. I would personally never use it on multi targets… maybe in SG

But I would just take the illisi

[strong gulch]

Yip

[summer prairie]

if you have uncanny up, penetration is actually worse

[analog agate]

Isn’t that an argument why pen was a dump on knife if you had uncanny?

[summer prairie]

yes

[steep estuary]

Only reason I have WS and the DS is because of the overall build and the voidstrike staff lol

[steep bridge]

So uh, how exactly does this happen

[mossy oyster]

[ripe inlet]

it's for the new blessing they're gonna add

Soon™

[jovial juniper]

Yeah Blazing Spirit

Electrokinectic Blazing Spirit will be peak

[haughty star]

WTF

[ripe inlet]

[haughty star]

[ripe inlet]

yeah

some people make jokes on the internet

[haughty star]

well you're just a cheery one aren't ya?

sharing it for the lulz dipshit

[ripe inlet]

yeah

arguably my favorite part abart darktide is the inappropriate names

[granite kelp]

my fav psyker so far

i ran back at extraction to rescue her all for the name

[vernal blaze]

what perks for voidstrike

or is it dealers choice since hitting headshots on this damn thing is a nightmare

[upper sun]

pretty much

try a custom crosshairs mod

it helped me a lot

[quartz barn]

how is hitting heads on voidstrike hard?

[upper sun]

i like flak crit

[haughty star]

JUST AIM UP

[quartz barn]

controller gaming i guess

[upper sun]

yes crosshairs for staves suck ass

[granite kelp]

aim high lmao

[upper sun]

its legit just the crosshairs

[granite kelp]

i played too much payday my hipfire aim is cracked

i have the crosshairs just turned off, its better to not have it

[quartz barn]

ngl i dont use any hud mods and dont notice the crosshair at all

[granite kelp]

you dont need crosshairs for any of the staffs tbh

[quartz barn]

might be scuffed for them because character height tho

[granite kelp]

do people make their characters small unironically?

[quartz barn]

so crosshair is fine, but not for their perspective

idk mine is at 2/3 ish

[upper sun]

psycho gaming

[upper sun]

some people are just used to dwarf

[haughty star]

i do

[upper sun]

omg really???

[haughty star]

yeah all 3

[upper sun]

youve made me the happiest man alive

[haughty star]

ogryn large tho

[granite kelp]

payday 2 is a game has occupied a significant chunk of my free time

ive gained the ability to hallucinate a crosshair in the direct middle of a given screen

[upper sun]

tbh

i stopped playing payday2 after someone hacked 20 billion trillion dollars to everyones account

[mossy oyster]

he ruined the fun of robbing banks

he gave us too much money

👎

[late yew]

Does that work on ranged?

[hollow jolt]

apparently yes

it also works on assail

[near drift]

hmm today I will brain off smyker in aurics, surely my teammates will appreciate this

[late yew]

What are good guns f or gunker build?

i was thinking recon

heavy one

[prime elk]

IAG, recon, ilas, HH

Laspistol

sharing my whole steam library with one friend
hes playing minecraft

gonna kms then kill him

[hollow jolt]

my friend tried Terraria once

he never stopped for like 3 weeks

[upper sun]

real

[late yew]

How to do that?

[upper sun]

i spent 2 weeks building a doomsday bunker

it was lead lined :333333

[upper sun]

family sharing i dont remember its been a while

but you have to long in on both accounts on the same machine or something

so the friend has to be physically there or dox himself to you

[late yew]

So how gunker build looks like?

[late yew]

what is ilas

infantry lasgun?

[prime elk]

Yes

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2917274959

Who were you!? That round was so fun!

[clear heath]

wtf level 3000

how many hours does that take?

[austere crest]

uhh i can tell u one sec

[vernal blaze]

highest i saw was like trauma

and that was what, 1800? last time i saw em

[austere crest]

its purely hyperfixation/dissassociation i promise, 4210 hours

[clear heath]

i've seen a few people around a thousand but 3000 is more than anything i've seen

[clear heath]

wow

that's some dedication

[austere crest]

XD i used to work from home, its toned down alot now, but its fun to just keep refining

[clear heath]

i think my total level for all my classes combined are like 900 and i have 1.2k hours

[austere crest]

my other classes are 100-150, i think actually under 100 on my vet. My other psyker is edging 100. that one is no keystones/no curios runner

it sucks bc its more interesting to manage, but fucking hell on stamina & unique perks

[vernal blaze]

damn

[austere crest]

how do u see account level?

[clear heath]

is there a reason you have a separate psyker for that instead of just having an empty build on your main one?

[austere crest]

You can't remove curios once equipped

[clear heath]

should be on your character page if you have true level

[clear heath]

oh

[austere crest]

cool ill check when im off work, today is going very slow

[vernal blaze]

voidstrike is just doomed to be clunky as hell right

[clear heath]

I think you can actually just sell the ones you've equipped while you have another build selected

[austere crest]

Does anyone know what makes Warp Unbound let you explode still within timer?

[vernal blaze]

sentenced to executioner sword experience

[austere crest]

oh shit, yooooo

ty thats worth a try

u know what sucks, martydom my other psyker i had the shirtless mod on, and skudie i didnt when the update happened. So Martydom gets to be the weirdo now

[jovial juniper]

No idea why
But my best bet is on the 1.5 seconds safety net going into PoW protection

[late yew]

I see now why assail is on gunker side

i could not understand it before

but now i see that you are too ammo limited to use gun all the time

so you use assail instead

btw, am i high, or gunker has way higher damage than vet with guns/

[clear heath]

also malefic procs

[clear heath]

actually not sure. I don't think so, but it's probably closer than most people assume

[thorn cedar]

Veteran is more consistent

Psyker has much higher potential

[azure bridge]

Veteran is more consistent but psykers highs are sky high

[thorn cedar]

Outside of Reciprocity stacks, Veteran just has all their bonuses

[clear heath]

I think vet might have a higher ceiling for burst anyways if they gave up all consistency and utility for meme damage nodes

[thorn cedar]

Nah Psyker wins

[clear heath]

Do you guys all remember those clips of people 5 shotting bosses with agri revolver on its release with super impractical builds?

like if we take it to stupid extremes, it gets pretty silly

no one would build like that though

[late yew]

what?

[thorn cedar]

25 stacks of DD + 30 stacks of Scriers + 20% Maelific and 20% warp rider

[azure bridge]

Behold I am become damage ender of worlds

[thorn cedar]

it becomes something insane like double damage plus quadruple crit headshot damage

[prime elk]

I mean what is gaze but better exec stance

[thorn cedar]

nah xstance is better now id say, since you no longer lose it on weapon swap

scriers is strong but you do have to ramp it

its not impossible to get very middling results from it, and the 20% crit chance only lasts until you cap your perils

[late yew]

Hm, i noticed that Lingering Influence stops working after you die and get rescued

My stacks were going down way too quickly

in fact, faster than 4 seconds

it was morel ike 2 seconds

[thorn cedar]

plus youd have to take the headshot node on scriers so that's one more talent investment

[late yew]

I literally could not get stacks back, becasue they would go down so quick i could not get it back even when chain headshoting

[granite kelp]

i continued playing after they hacked a bajillion dollars into my offshore account

[late yew]

ah, yes, i can see how that works with assail as well

[granite kelp]

it just took out a grind element that was pointless

[late yew]

Does this affect scrier gaze peril generation?

[late yew]

this build is so old

it was made when DD was ass

[jovial juniper]

Yes

[austere crest]

It will be with like 7-8 seconds left sometimes, but im wondering if its something to do with cooldown reduction

[late yew]

ok, what the actual hell, i am 100% sure this talent does not work

[granite kelp]

its one of the integral perks to get that juicy 20+ second gaze sprees

[late yew]

is there an up to date build for that?

[tired estuary]

If its b/c you aren't seeing any stacks the Ui is bugged (still)

[late yew]

Psykenium one is outdated

[granite kelp]

grab everything that says -% peril generated

thats the gist of the build

id recommend palpatine fingers for falling back to being a mage when the ye olde 8 fucking ragers round the corner

no staffs, use mobile secondaries that get pulled out faster to deal with ranged fellas and never attempt to use anything that generates peril during the gaze

[hushed heart]

Which is the better dump stat, Warp Resist or Mobility

[granite kelp]

warp

psykers are made of paper mache and ogryn spit

you need that mobility

[late yew]

Only UI? Effect still works?

[late yew]

I am taking agile on DS for gunker lol

[granite kelp]

iirc you can get upto like, something along the lines of -60% ish peril generation?

i wasnt fucked to do the math but i remember pulling out fingers after making my build and realizing i can fry a malice crusher to death with 50% peril

[tired estuary]

Ye

[steep estuary]

Yeah that is a bothersome little bug

[modest perch]

Is this ui issue the same reason my heavy hitter disappears ? Smolgryns keep asking me this and idk what to tell them

[drifting elk]

why does ep not work like half the time

[clear heath]

wdym? Like you aren't getting stacks?

[drifting elk]

ill take overpowering souls, kill an elite, and it does nothing

it makes ep assail unusably bad

[clear heath]

what have you tried killing?

[drifting elk]

Elites

[clear heath]

like specifically what enemies does it fail on?

[drifting elk]

every single one, i only get the random chance

in the psyk ward it works, in the mission it instantly stops working

[clear heath]

half the time people mix up elites and specials so i had to make sure

[drifting elk]

so i think this is some sort of bug and i should report it to fs

[nocturne dust]

Yeah, are you sure it's not specials you're killing and mistaking?

[drifting elk]

ill kill a mauler in the psyk ward and get a charge, ill kill 12 in game and get nothing

[nocturne dust]

That does sound like a bug. Good luck with the report.

[drifting elk]

it makes getting the penances insufferable so i dont think im going to bother until its fixed

[late sapphire]

Tiny window between sg and the lingering effect is my guess

[late sapphire]

Yes

[buoyant maple]

buff bar UI is very buggy

[elfin kettle]

Hi, best stats for trauma staff?

[kindred edge]

they’ve breached 2k iirc

[elfin kettle]

Awesome thanks!

And have bis blessings changed since update?

[abstract totem]

Awesome sauce

[elfin kettle]

Sorry first time using my psyker since patch lol and all my talent trees reset 😦

[slate oasis]

idk if they've changed, but blazing spirit and warp nexus are the best blessings

[elfin kettle]

I currently have rending shockwave and warp flurry

[analog agate]

Best stats for blast are 60 warp res. Best blessings are blaze and nexus

Perks flak/crit chance

[elfin kettle]

Thanks! Would you happen to know any links for game lantern build?

[analog agate]

I personally do inner tranq instead of quietude

[late yew]

never had any problems with it

[upper sun]

nah quietude is basedi would do infire reborn

[analog agate]

Never liked reborn on blaze blast build

[nocturne dust]

no KD

[analog agate]

Don’t need KD if everything is dead

[nocturne dust]

The Boss:

[late sapphire]

could be critting 10% more...

think about it

[analog agate]

Best thing about this. Is, even though this was about my build beforehand… this is Agent’s build. And yet… everything he says is golden till it comes from someone else

[paper lily]

agent knows good builds for sure

[drifting elk]

classic response

really helpful thanks

[late sapphire]

Don't think i have ever 100% agreed with agentchaos

Then again i am a hater

[paper lily]

i just look at stats/numbers

[clear heath]

most trauma staff builds are gonna look 95% the same anyways. Realistically a hundred people had the same idea

[nocturne dust]

True

But I disagree with Agent too on dropping KD

[paper lily]

kd is a playstyle choice

[nocturne dust]

Yes

[paper lily]

im a minmaxer and if u play duelling sword u basically have infinite dodges so

[nocturne dust]

I'm not saying it's not entirely my preference to not drop KD

[nocturne dust]

no plz

[clear heath]

what the

[nocturne dust]

Don't post the youtubers

😭

[clear heath]

more curio videos?

[paper lily]

i mean darktide kinda lacking in yt content ngl

think all this tier list stuff is silly tho

[nocturne dust]

I saw a reddit thread unironically calling Darktide tubers 'legendary' and 'super knowledgeable'

[paper lily]

very few people validate what they say with numbers in this game

[latent mauve]

I need to make more content

get some redditers sucking me off lmao

[paper lily]

asked zealot chat earlier why shock maul isn't just a better crusher

i mean zealot chat is ... special

just got a nonanswer

[nocturne dust]

I mean, crusher does more damage and stagger, no?

[paper lily]

only stagger

it does less damage and has less cleave than shock maul

[latent mauve]

crusher does more damage, wider impact, more stagger, can put on slaughterer

[paper lily]

with the exception of adms on push attack ig

[radiant frigate]

w h a t

[latent mauve]

he is wrong

[nocturne dust]

w-what?
