should provide more debuff

nocturne dust
#

But that's because we already have tons of stagger and no reason to use them

#

so, ergo, introduce enemies that need impact blessings to be staggered, or other stuff like that. Make impact valuable in some way.

pine relic
#

The bolters used to completely dominate the game before they finally nerfed it to the ground, and it was like for two years.

fiery stratus
#

bolters good again, just devours ammo

nocturne dust
#

idk mahn

#

The amount of misinformation Darktiders have? Dangerous

fiery stratus
#

problem is the content in the pipeline has to be gws approved

nocturne dust
#

I'm not here for the IP anyway.

fiery stratus
#

a lot of people arent

#

but unfortunately gws owns it

nocturne dust
#

Fatshark should make an original IP-tide pogryn

fiery stratus
#

theyre gonna be stuck as gws subcontractors forever

nocturne dust
#

😔

fiery stratus
#

ill hold my hope for killing floor 3

#

not as much melee granted

#

its gonna have a similar loop that all these games are doing these days though, grabby enemies with dodging and whatnot

pine relic
#

FS is just lazy which is understandable because they are nordic developers.

#

Many problems can be fixed years ago.

pine relic
fiery stratus
#

laziness and lack of ideas

plucky flax
#

Are there even any psyker testers?

#

To a competent level. whatthefuck_heresy

unique reef
#

They could make a poll for skins TBH. Why not?

pine relic
#

They don't want to listent to you.

plucky flax
#

Rebuff assails whatthefuck_heresy

unique reef
#

Yeah, just future servitors anyway

Keep your opinion to yourself, peasant.

thank you

pine relic

I only searched for doritos gif KEKW_ogryn

carmine raptor
#

There's too much grind. Can I bribe a dev

fiery stratus
#

the grind in this game isnt that bad

#

now

timid grove
#

Game also looks like plastic shit these days

fiery stratus
#

i played kf1 too

#

idk i didnt hate it, but the gameplay definitely still left some things to be desired

timid grove
#

You misunderstand, I loved kf1

#

2 was just fucking weird

fiery stratus
#

I guess now they're gonna link the characters to the classes

#

oh i know i had many hundreds of hours in the first one

timid grove
#

It's likely gonna be a disaster like payday 3

fiery stratus
#

just have to wait and see

#

if it has anymore content than payday 3 at least theres that lol

plucky flax
nocturne dust
pine relic
#

I was actually hyping for SM2

nocturne dust
#

Darktide just has the sliding, the dodging, the sprinting, the toughness, the melee, etc.

pine relic
#

Then, after watching a few videos, I decided the game was not worth my money.

nocturne dust
#

Darktide also has the best ranged combat for me, specifically because it has something other than boring guns with the same tired mechanics: staves pogryn

nocturne dust
fiery stratus
#

you're not missing much

nocturne dust
#

I was super susgryn as soon as I knew the dev

fiery stratus
#

its not a bad game but it doesn't have the replay factor darktide does

nocturne dust
pine relic
#

Like add more combat animations, more moves.

fiery stratus
#

eh, the gameplay loop just isn't as good imo

#

like the combat

nocturne dust
#

Yeah, I agree on the fundamental combat loop being problematic.

pine relic
#

But no, I had to sell the season pass.

nocturne dust
#

Which they could change. Be very weird if they did, but they could.

#

Imagine the riots from a popular game suddenly shifting genres KEKW_ogryn

pine relic
#

Also, I firmly believe the game would be much better if it was an FPS.

nocturne dust
#

SM2?

pine relic
#

Yeah

fiery stratus
#

thats a thing, its called spacehulk

nocturne dust
#

Eh. I think they could've made 3rd person interesting. They didn't, but they could've.

#

Woe be unto potential 😔

pine relic
#

They could have done so many things, yet I haven't seen any major updates since release.

#

Disappointed, just like my son.

cloud night
#

Assail gunpsyker go crazy

nocturne dust
#

It certainly goes.

plucky flax
cosmic sigil
#

I thought warp unbound prevented that

plucky flax
#

Yeah but with latency and lag it still blow you up

cloud night
fiery stratus
#

might make another character

#

just to have something to do

pine relic
#

You guys are definitely the kind of psykers who live with 100% peril.

plucky flax
#

Dpsmaxxing

#

Got a really good psyker in my last game I was sweating trying to get top damage whatthefuck_heresy

#

Not that damage matter whatthefuck_heresy

fiery stratus
#

smh

#

when i get good teammates i just let them carry

#

obviously i help but if someone wants to go bananas be my guest

plucky flax
#

I would if I was on another class but it was psyker x psyker

cloud night
#

sounds like a fanfic to be written somewhere

#

I like the other classes i do
But psyker is my bread and butter

fiery stratus
#

i play every class pretty frequently

#

i have the most levels on zealot but its not really a main

cloud night
#

My zealot's my 2nd most used just bc of my love of a flamer kick and some other benefits honestly

Vet will prob overtake her in hours tho eventually

I just cant be on ogryn like I want too
There's just something so... boring about it
Aside from "haha funny rock meme"

fiery stratus
#

i think ogryns a lot of fun

#

if you can dodge slide well its a game changer for ogryn, otherwise it feels pretty cumbersome

cloud night
#

Ye I do often

#

Still just feels sluggish in general for me

fiery stratus
#

it can, but the reality is its not too much slower than the other characters normal speeds

#

just feels that way from the animations

cloud night
#

True

fiery stratus
#

really need the right weapon too for the power fantasy

#

some of them feel pretty underwhelming for what they are

#

all this ogryn talk makes me wanna play it

pine shore
#

How would you build a headhunter for psyker?

fiery stratus
#

ah lame it missed the part i wanted to record

cloud night
#

Whack a mole with a pickaxe
Nice

#

My ogryn's got the riot cop set

#

Any tips for using the Voidstrike Staff? I just feel like it's so freakin' slow.

fiery stratus
#

Shoot one out then switch to melee

#

and try to weave that pattern

#

also you can slide while charging it

radiant lance
#

What role does it fill?

fiery stratus
#

itll cleave through about anything

#

send it through hordes of stuff to vreakit up, then use melee to clean

radiant lance
#

It's too slow to be an elite/specialist tool. Not enough damage to be a Crusher/Mauelr tool.

fiery stratus
#

break*

#

you have to make some distance

radiant lance
fiery stratus
#

voidstrike can shoot really far

rose fable
#

so smite is great right

fiery stratus
#

sure

#

just very lazy

#

like i said its lazy

rose fable
#

how? stunning every now and then while the team kills?

#

support is a role thats very good for teamplay

fiery stratus
#

any strategy that involves hitting a few keys, dodging occasionally. Thats about it. Pretty lazy

rose fable
#

who cares about bieng lazy as long as you win for the emporer? anything otherwise is selfish

spice flame
#

Work smarter not harder

rose fable
fiery stratus
#

i mean you can play however you want, if you really want to avoid 90% of the content the game has to offer, more power to you

spice flame
#

Ofc smite may not be the most exciting gameplay

#

It works tho

fiery stratus
#

never claimed it didnt

rose fable
fiery stratus
#

The thrill of having to weave out of terrible situations

rose fable
#

dodge

fiery stratus
#

you just shock them and hold them in place

spice flame
#

And it's a bit thrilling to see your team working on a big pack in a mixed horde while stunning them

rose fable
#

u cant shock indefintaly

#

u have to dodge or u will be knocked out

fiery stratus
#

you cant, but it takes about 3 seconds to quell to get back to it

#

its not difficult in the slightest

spice flame
#

Thruth be told I rarely use smite because I'm more of a fast player and I like action

rose fable
#

shoot, shock, dodge, slash

spice flame
#

but I can perfectly understand the thrill of it

rose fable
fiery stratus
#

if you have fun holding things in place so teammates can kill it, go for it. But it kinda defeats the purpose of the gaming being high octane and bouncing off the walls

#

just gives you full control

#

lazy

spice flame
#

That's your point of view

fiery stratus
#

yes it is

rose fable
#

in what sense does not being able to stun all give you` full control

spice flame
#

And it's legit ofc

fiery stratus
#

but its a lazy playstyle thats not an opinion

spice flame
#

but I think the other way around ia also legit

fiery stratus
#

you literally cant tell me its not a lazy way to play when you have to do the absolute bare mininmum in the hardest difficulties with it

rose fable
#

in anything higher than 5 you cant stun all so comes strategy

spice flame
#

be glad we have multiple kind of gameplay in the game

fiery stratus
#

higher than 5?

#

wym

radiant ice
#

I just got the squirrel dialogue for the first time

rose fable
#

auric sorrys hould have said

radiant ice
#

That threw me off

fiery stratus
#

dog smite will stun anything other than monstrosities at any level

rose fable
#

the number is what matters

#

u can only stun so many at a time

fiery stratus
#

i guess? but thats not really an issue when 3/4 of the group is already stuck in place

#

you just clean up the few who arent first

rose fable
#

very true

#

idk what im even fighting for i just love smite so much, being a sith lord is great and i will never get tired of it

wind spruce
fiery stratus
#

if thats how you want to play more power to you, but you're limiting yourself on content by a lot

spice flame
#

what even Lazy mean in that context

#

in a video game

fiery stratus
#

it means you dont have to move

#

you just stand in place and dodge occasionally and zap everything else

wind spruce
#

What sort of scrub does more when they could do less for the same result whatthefuck_heresy

spice flame
#

Ok but if they like the playstyle

rose fable
#

he just hates doing things smart

spice flame
fiery stratus
#

nah i'm pretty sure in this game thats designed for the hectic nature, a build that can literally stop that from happening is pretty lazy

#

instead of adapting to it

fiery stratus
#

again i never said it wasnt good

#

smites very good

#

its just lazy

rose fable
#

if they all die and you win why does it matter

#

that sounds like a loser

wind spruce
fiery stratus
#

again like i said above, play how you want

#

you're only limiting yourself

spice flame
#

They're just having fun upsidedowncry

rose fable

why keep crying then

fiery stratus
#

why come into chat trying to stir shit up when you know the response you'll get?

rose fable

Agree or disagree, this post is an amazing dive into Smite to make your own mind up on

smite isn't bad, its just lazy and used incorrectly by a lot of people.

You 2 won't ever agree on this, that's fine that's ok

rose fable
#

i know

#

honestly thats on me

fiery stratus
#

@rose fable You may know fundamentals, but i guarantee the majority of people who only use smite don't. Purely anedotal evidence but I honestly can't remember the number of smite psykers ive played with in auric, who don't know how to even clear a group of trash.

any idea what mods could cause it?

fiery stratus

@late yew mod loaders broken, i guess there's a fix in the modding discord. I just turned mine off for now

late yew
#

ok that was mod loader

fiery stratus
#

Doesn't matter the loader has a problem with the new hotfix

Must have the fix implemented since last night

late yew
#

what is this

#

never seen it before

spice flame
#

It's new

#

From the last hotfix

#

At the end of the game you talk with FS butt

#

Something like that

late yew
#

why

spice flame
#

Funny

upper sun
#

so u can ask

upper sun
#

but thats bullshit

#

the waiting for player part is artificial

spice flame

fiery stratus
#

Ehh

#

Idk

#

More like teammates have slow ssd

spice flame
#

#

zinc phoenix
#

So I messed about with my meleeker build and after trying chainsword, tacaxe, knife and illsi with various setups… I’m back to ds2 😂

Chainsword/tacaxe/illsi were pretty solid offensively and had great cleave for crack but didn’t offer as much defensive mobility and I sure felt it. I also struggled against the heavier enemy types in melee which sucked. Knife was pretty good but my hand can’t sustain that level of punishment. DS2 offered a good balance of horde clear and armored enemy management with solid defensive mobility imo

fiery stratus
#

Knife isn't as bad if your throw the special attack punch in

#

Gotta do less pba and whatnot

zinc phoenix
#

I liked knife a lot but I can’t spam left click that much and keep function in my hand

#

It’s the whole “I’m getting older” issue 😂

spice flame
#

Knife is pretty demanding on the hand yeah

late yew
#

some games literally unplayable these days without ssd

zinc phoenix
#

That comes with being in your 40s

spice flame
#

tac axe on zealot too

fiery stratus
#

Nah I don't spam it, I chain the heavies a lot and that probably kills 60% of stuff in melee

late yew
spice flame
#

Hmhm

zinc phoenix
#

Well you know after multiple decades of mouse use I’m not changing my grip

#

It’s too confusing

#

I have the same hand pain with controllers and the phone tho

fiery stratus
#

Knife can be clicky, but if I'm using mk3 it's mostly just lightspam for clearing. Mk6 actually has a heavy light combo that's all horizontal, ezpz for clear

left mirage
#

just saw the force greatsword

#

fiery stratus
left mirage
#

i hope its decently balanced when it drops

#

if its shit it might take ages to get buffed, if its OP it might get nerfed to shit

zinc phoenix
fiery stratus
#

Mk3 has the same combo but it just does 2 quick repeating stabs

late yew
zinc phoenix
#

Hmm yes very wise

zinc phoenix
jovial juniper
fiery stratus
#

Heavy starts it on the mk6 pretty sure, been a minute since I've used it

#

So heavy, click once for light then hold again

#

And it'll loop

zinc phoenix
#

Ok

#

What’s the combo for merking things with heavy armor in the head with the mk6

fiery stratus
#

I generally do heavy run up, punch into light follow up, then pushblock if you wanna mix those in

#

But tbh you can punch with light attack follow up repeatedly if you want

zinc phoenix
#

Interesting

#

So much of “this weapon is good” is lost in the lack of discussion on the attack chains that make it good imo

wind jay
#

Push attack on mk6 knife is pretty quick for armor

spice veldt
#

can also block-cancel H1 > H2 on mk6 for a horizontal loop

fiery stratus
#

Punch is incredibly underrated, I hardly ever seen anyone using it when spectating

zinc phoenix
#

Idk about you but I mostly use push attack for bonking ragers

#

I love punch on the axes

fiery stratus
#

Punch also stuns ragers

#

And about anything tbh

zinc phoenix
#

Very nice

fiery stratus
#

As long as it's not nurgle blessed

zinc phoenix
#

Isn't surge staff surprisingly capable of boss damage?

I haven't touched this thing in a bit, do I get a new one that dumps wr or is this fine

plucky flax

Nah dump wr for sure.

flint pawn

will do

plucky flax
#

Use empyric resolve it offsets a lot of peril gain.

flint pawn
#

this one will have to do for the time being because my surge staff level is 6 and I have no plasteel 😢

plucky flax
#

Always hover at high peril and spam F when you see horde at 84%+

flint pawn
plucky flax
#

On my ultra dps build i use ER and only toughness gain I got is from mettle and quietude.

#

Only took 71 damage last game.

flint pawn
#

okay but I suck :(

plucky flax
#

Hrm then I would play soulstealer + quietude + mettle. Then for blitz use smite.

#

You should be okay. Use smite when things get sus or during big horde.

flint pawn
#

like I have this for my soulblaze trauma

plucky flax
#

Not the most optimal but it's okay I guess.

flint pawn
#

damage wise it could be higher

plucky flax
#

I would really use ER though if you have soulstealer.

#

Since anything you touch and die give toughness anyway on trauma.

flint pawn
#

I mean yeah

plucky flax
#

One way they could nerf creeping flames is give it 25 targets cap (pls don't do it nooooo )

flint pawn
#

Idk I don't have much issue quelling with the staff builds either is why I don't run it

plucky flax
#

You run it for damage.

flint pawn
#

because you spend less time quelling

#

right

cloud night
#

I stopped running it a while ago because I like fire more
But is trauma rly the best of all of them staff wise?

plucky flax
#

Well and creeping flames itself deal a big ass AOE cone that kill any smol dudes.

#

No surge and burga are clear.

#

Trauma is the best by far though at melee scab only.

flint pawn
#

Trauma is also the most based

cloud night
#

Gotcha

plucky flax
#

They need to buff blazing spirits t4.

they should remove the stack limit for every mechanic from every enemy

so you always go assail with surge staff?

Huh? No? D:

Assails are with guns.

I stick with staffs mainly bc i usually get the unfortunate circumstance of being teamed with 2-3 vets that are constantly fucking ammo starved

fiery stratus

just gotta get to it first

also spam i need ammo

cloud night

True
Plus assail usually steal horde killss anyway

ornate hamlet

i want a reason not to use a gun as psyker since i play vet too

so staff it is then

but what should my loadout and stats be and what model of each wep?

I am going to be perpetually stuck in this limbo of knowing perfectly well how to play the game at auric mael level but sucking at making builds

btw heresy is too hard for me even at level 28 idk why ppl said it was easy

I.E. positioning, using the dodge button constantly, pushing, making sure you have space to dodge, all that

That's on damnation too but tbh

# ornate hamlet but what should my loadout and stats be and what model of each wep?

Additional peril generation reduction and having soulstealer make you tankier and can spam surge (electrokinetic) more. As always, smash F to spam creeping flames and everything will die. Smite is there for super hairy situation but 90% of the map you will just spam your staff.

Don't be afraid to backtrack slightly if you need space to survive the situation

Most of the situations that seem impossible are ones that you approached incorrectly.

I like how when people die it's my fault because I'm suppose to be 'watching their backs'.

flint pawn
#

if you are newer which I believe you said you were, I would always, always, ALWAYS recommend having this node

fringe garden
#

Or you don't have a setup capable of dealing with all situations

fiery stratus
#

Placement is as important as anything, don't be afraid to backtrack waaay the fuck back

cloud night

#

and don't be afraid to play skiddish, don't commit to certain situatioons

flint pawn
#

Deflection won't stop the mutants but enemies don't melee attack you while you're grabbed

#

Use it and tweak as you see fit. But that tree is really good for offense + defense.

Remember to spam F a lot at 84%+

This UnsanctionedPsyker guy though can clutch pretty hard.

I "solo carry" (my team dies and thankfully spawns close enough by before I inevitably fumble)

best thing for clutching is playing slower

It works a little better than combat axe on psyker specifically imo

plucky flax

And I use martyrdom so combat axe swings super fast already.

zinc phoenix

But not enough better to edge out ds2 or illsi or Deimos

plucky flax

The crusher damage is too low for me to consider it over ds or knife or deimos.

Voidstrike is the least “best” staff atm

its not bad, spit one out then swap melee

so once u hit 30 in this game theres no point in playing and just move on to an alt or new class right?

hazy moss

i hated the voidstrike staff when i first tried using it but its grown on my really hard

the point is the combat loop

I out damage voidstrike user with range damage category using surge staff easily.

but voidstrike can shoot two big balls of death which is neat

I use VS to clear crushers quickly with headshots while in SG. It cleave good and blast much

I wish tactical axe was better because I love how it feels to use

I also use it to merk rager blobs with a partial charge

Otherwise I am stab and assail weaving

voidblast soulblaze is pretty op, good luck outdmging it if ur not cracked gunker

zinc phoenix

It still deals the damage, but it feels less satisfying to use Sitgryn

hazy moss

#

trauma gameplay be like stare at feet -> right click

fiery stratus
#

see this what what scoreboards do to a mf

hazy moss
#

voidstrike is also way more satisfying to use

late sapphire
analog agate
#

Flurry enables EK to hit specials in quick succession. Especially if they are already wounded and don’t need full charges. Which is the broken part

#

Better be. I haven’t been using it because of that

hazy moss
#

how is it broken?

zinc phoenix
#

If they reduced charge time on VS itd be way more useful to me than if they boosted damage

late sapphire
analog agate
#

It slows down any cast that isn’t full charge. BUT it also makes it so you can’t quell if you decide not do a full cast too

Edit: Slows down in the sense of just doesn’t work. So it is as if flurry isn’t even there. But it locks you in from doing other actions too

zinc phoenix
#

The big thing I want to be able to do with VS is basically snapshots

#

Because I use it like plasma

ornate hamlet
#

is hell divers 2 not challenging like this game?

zinc phoenix
#

So faster access to the higher end of the damage curve would be good for my use case

zinc phoenix

I have some friends that like it and think it’s good

unreal wasp
ornate hamlet

late sapphire
plucky flax
analog agate
#

Haz 5+ is different than auric mael. End game DR is trailing hordes and speed running missions

late sapphire
#

So in short warp flurry makes you attack slower but charge faster

plucky flax
#

If you full charge its still good

late sapphire
#

Warp flurry + celerity stim casts full charge slower than without both though

plucky flax
#

But partial charge is broken

unreal wasp
analog agate
#

It isn’t just full charging. If you try and do a quell instead of completing your full charge it also is a delayed action. It is broken af

I'll take just being able to stagger them when I need
