nice
Boomstick McShootington is an awesome name
ty
Did you use them?
Theyre pretty good
Which pissed me off the most
Dont need perks to be good
Yeah, I'm trying to feel like this lol
Takes a while to kill a crusher
but force GS is amazing
Force GS just deletes everything in that general direction when its charged up
mk8 PA into heavy thrust can one shot a crusher with SG
SG?
swordGreat
It already one shots hordes
lol

What's the dump stat on new greatsword?
Doesnt need to kill everything in one shot
warp res is dump
It has defense, not mobility iirc
and Illisi also dumps warp res unless you really, really want to spam it
Wait this thing only got 4 dodges
Warp res as a stat on a weapon scales poorly
Yeah dump defence man
You don't lose much by dropping it to 60. That's also true of mobility and defense, but it's more true for warp res.
The weapon already has poor dodging. It doesn't need worse dodging.
It got max dodge from 51% and above though
I am abit bummed out
About these weapons carapace damage
The dueling swords will be better
It's decent carapace damage.
Yeah its alright
duellies probably shouldn't be your average standard
Of course dueling swords will be better, they're overpowered.
Deimos was better too though
Duel swords also are can openers lol
0% range shotgun op
1h force swords also have their own thing going on
Yeah, greatswords don't replace the 1handers
Deimos and duelling swords destroy crushers
ill tell you what gswords do that those other things dont
let you play like a zealot
I think this would be a weapon for gun psyker
But the gs has aoe and is serviceable against elites
And surge staff
dodge distance
Its really good for peril edging builds actually
You get a lot of damage from warp rider
And you can build the two bars while youre topped off with peril
Then cleave to max out peril again
TBf I am abit annoyed with them I got fucked by crusher patrol if I had my trusty deimos they were dead π¦
its funny i almost need more peril, not less
Anyway I think gonna run precog and shred probably
I run wrath and deflector, it's fine
Running crit on dodge and wrath on mine
I dont know does this thing need more cleave though ?
You can never have too much cleave
Havoc has higher hit mass
i honestly don't really understand cleave very well
and also shooters do stupid damage in Havoc
shotgunners can easily 1-shot psykers
soooooooooo
deflector and wrath it is
Itβs kinda nuts how deadly they are yea
Time to take the ranged defense stuff seriously π
Ive been running barrier recently lol
Iβve been doing wall yeah
wall still bad
not necessarily
Assail has been good to me for that shit too
granted it's not quite AS good
reminds me of release shotgunners
Yeah if I want to not get smoked by a gunner horde wall is doin it
lmao
im gonna try wall
might give me what i need to survive shotgunners without having to run deflector
It's incredibly inferior
No toughness regen, no TDR on popping, and only defense in 1 direction
blazing spirit not work with warp slice?
feels kinda weird that the sword doesnt generate any peril
It really is
and it doesn't event protect an area from bombardment or anything like that
its made for a different task
Lets you spam bb to smoke all the targets
Yeah, and that task is incredibly easy to handle in any situation where wall exists
eh I like the toughness for the whole squad
I will grant that is a use it has, but BB is pretty bad anyway and you're kinda just making a bad thing mediocre.
see, my main problem right now is it has too long of a cooldown
Just run warp siphon and psykinetics
Anyone got a good greatsword talent build yet?
don't have the talent points
damn, thought it would be a great combo, warp slice and blazing spirit

guess wep special dosent count as an attack with the weapon
That's a sus build if you don't have points for a keystone
for that specific keystone
at least not if i still want kinetic deflection and warp rider

well, and all the other stuff
I REALLY like this gs8 on the right side psyker lol
i keep forgetting to weave cuz it's just so fucking bruta
yeah I go right side then get warp charges
spam the special
since it seems to stun everyting it hits for like half a second
which force greatsword do yall prefer? i think the mk VI is great
I wish the force-greatsword special attack actually worked with blazing spirit... and that it counted as a ranged attack for the purposes of true aim...
8
it's kino
Would it be good? Depends...
Would it be fun? Yes
If you get hit while activating, charge disappears
If you don't kill, charge disappears
charge dumb
Two different problems I need solved.
- gunner from a direction to stop shooting me while I get away
- ability to kill lots of gunners
More frequency in the first is valuable
A problem in the first sounds like a positioning error
what stat should i be dumping on force GS?
warp res
Post your FGS builds
I mean, I just slapped it into my normal builds π€·ββοΈ No real unique build for it required.
a bit of a WIP
Don't be a bitch
not dome?
It's true tho 
I slapped it into my scrierstrike madness and it worked
I slapped it into Fire Trauma and it worked
Your mum true
I slapped it into Inferno and it worked
I'm finding that i get shot a lot and my dome is on cooldown when i need it
so im trying double wall
How do you do a fire trauma build?
because the alternative to that is either a lot more cdr or running deflector, and i don't want to do either
Nah that's when you should be ditching shield for shriek and learning how darktide is really played (skilfull movement)
Stop crutching on shield and deflector or you'll never learn
i don't crutch on them, i don't generally use deflector, i just need an answer to snipers and gunners
blazing spirit + nexus
flak + crit chance too
shriek is for people who are afraid
Shotgunners one shot you at higher havoc

My WIP FGS build looks like this... meele psyker with the gun being recon lasgun for monster destroying.
that they will blow up
thank you
got to ride that 100% peril the whole map
Deflector and bubble unironically meta now
Or eat them and die and never learn a lesson. π
It wasn't a "shield bad" comment so much as a "learn movement skill" comment
Fair, but just saying they're no longer crutches
ok sure, skill issue, but also, i don't wanna be that guy who goes down over and over because he's too proud to take the easier path
why is deflector good now, it doesnt block ranged attack from behind
why i use it
You absolutely do not
the hell does warp resistance do on greatsword
Because he's too proud to drop down a difficulty***
lowers peril build up on special
because enemies on high havoc have absurd ranged damage to the point where you either block the damage or lose a ton of health
dump stat
or avoid it in some other way of course
Shriek has team utility. Can un-dog team through walls or another level and stagger a bunch of things.
Havoc has changed everything 
But old lessons still apply to people not playing high havoc
If you're not auric mael ready, ditch the shield/deflector and git gud
look, im trying to do some specific things with my build, among them is that I'm trying to eliminate the need to dodge or block, because fgs isn't great at dodging, and i want to see if i can make it work
Oh my sweet summer child
You cannot eliminate the need for dodging
when the crusher pack moves up inside the horde what do you do with the GS?
Bonk it on the head
Honestly I really wish Fatshark implemented some stuff that made you have to solve things without dodging. Like specific attacks that ignore dodges but are easy to block.
Ragers use to ignore dodges but not exactly easy to block
the answer to ragers is usually to hit them from range
and so they fixed it by making them dodgeable instead of easy to block 
or stagger them
The stun from block breaking shouldn't be a thing
What should it do? Just start taking health/drop block?
is toughness regen on curios diminishing returns or does it legit just not work past one
and you should be able to block overheads (and sniper shots with deflector) with enough investment in blocking
wat, no?
It's only good with 3
can you not block snipers with deflector?
no
You can't, they're unblockable
yikesd
sniper bullet isn't a bullet it's a seperate thing all together
shows how much i use that blessing lmao
It should break your block, but not stun you and prevent you from doing anything
is mk 6 or 8 better btw for fgs
It's the opposite of diminishing returns
does it have multiplicative scaling?
It reduces regen delay at the same time as increasing regen amount
sooooo very good in big quantities
I like the mk6 personally, got some quirks to the combos, but Iβm getting it down
I do prefer 6 to 8
The issue is it requires a push first
yeah the pushblock takes forever
Yeah but one tapping Havoc crushers
Gotta figure out perks and blessings too, +Carapace sounds nice, but I need to see if I can get the mutie 1 shot without +maniac
and even after that, it doesn't do that much more damage than just a normal h2 from 6
is that only with scriers?
and 6 gets a nice h1 first which also does a lot of damage
Nope
The 6s heavy stab is like super easy
To using sciers
Itβs l1-h2 or h1-h2
oh really? it can't just 1tap em at base right?
I need to get the perks and blessings in order but can the roll get much better then this, also how do I increase stats? I can't figure it out but I might just be blind
Nah not that either
Go to hadron and select empower
It can go to the cap your weapon mastery is at
Hold on, I landed a plain ol' crit just with nothing but DD stacks
thats about the perfect roll
do you guys have a bubble shield smyker build?
In my last game
with voidstrike/ek
oh well critting is eh
Doesn't exist, sorry
consistently one-shotting is the point
Amazing rolls btw, keep that
82.5% crit tho makes it consistent crit
bruh

Spent 300k on swords to get that roll
Take Smite, Empowered Psionics, Bubble
im totally new to psyker, barely level 10. Looking for a greatsword focused build, do you guys have any recommendations? Or where should I look?
Been there lol, Iβm so out of dockets atm
i got a sword like this on 3 rolls π
(In my recording as it only stores a few mins at a time)
Greatsword is a general weapon and doesn't need a specific build
That's a Mk8 very near one tap against a Havoc Crusher with minimal buffs
No idea why latest update broke sound with Steam recording
so if i look up "psyker melee build" in google its gonna be fine?
Hey don't blame me for Steam on rec'ing 2 damn minutes
Meleeker is... a choice.
does someone here actually have a shield smite build for real tho

fgs is the weapon for it though
can you post pls
so where can I find a proper build for it?
instead of "eh"?
Not necessarily. You can use it.
true
idk why people gatekeep in a game where you can freely build like π
Psyker scriers gaze buff icon being invis sometimes on buff bar is such a bad bug π¦
what kind of melee psyker do you wanna run
like what are you looking to do?
Two free points left over, and this is a super general build
thank you
Spend the two points and change up to your liking
Normalise posting screenshots of gameslantern builds 
Meleeker with 1 free point
Normalise you stop being an ass every third message
(Plus it's quicker to throw it together when I have the window open :P)
NO
Go away, cringe normie 
I will say I do prefer creeping flames push for it, cause you can cast while still holding the smite
But it drops off hard in Damnation/Auric/Havoc
generally speaking, support my team
What I mean is when I play vet, I play weapon spec. with psword and boltpistol. VoC ofc. When Zealot, I love the book. So I think Im looking for something that will allow me to be strong myself but also support my team in different ways
Smite shriek is strong af in auric mael
thanks!
My point was that googling builds will give you a lot of bad ones.
thats what I use in Auric
I meant Smite XD
thats why im asking here π
It doesn't really work at that level
bubble shield then probably
Inferno Staff does it better
hmmm
Way more damage, stagger and CC
meleeker with support
were you asking? I didn't see? 
It does though, it's just annoying
why can i not find a havok group man
you can't random groups, gotta make a group or try joining one
@dull gyro how's your manual dexterity, and do you have arthritis?
doesnt need to be a lot of support, I have no clue what talents psyker got (LVL10 moment) but even providing toughness is ok. I alwasy stick with the team
Define manual dexterity in draktide? π€¨ And no
oh... oh that was a serious ask?
I thought that was a joke
Yeah what's automatic dexterity
because one of these builds might involve spamming dodge and block stab like a crazy person
i just want to try
lol
Oh btw the build must include GS
The only reason Im playing psyker
oh perfect
but i have no probs with what u wrote btw
πππ
This would be my starting point
so that narrows things down a lot
Honestly? use a staff, any staff that isn't Voidstrike, as your main weapon for that
That's pretty much what I sent him!
but I don't think it's a great combo so I don't have the real meat and bones mashed together, soulblaze might be questionable
Has anyone encountered stats changing after empowering? I had just got a voidstrike staff with blast radius as a dump stat and went to empower it. Now the blast radius is 63% potential when it was 60% before.
Although why Mettle/Perfect Timing, Smite can't crit
happens sometimes, is bug
π€·ββοΈ
staff can
yea prob surge tbh
I assume you're going to use the staff still
It's a Bubble Smyker
so you'll be running bubble shield with greatsword, take all the melee talents you can fit
You think Bubble Smyker's will use a staff? XD
blitz is a toss up
which is why you have to use staff
Yes, no shriek
no shriek, no smite damage
Oh I know
also perfect timing still buffs smite iirc
it just needs to be activated elsewhere
Got havoc 23
Yeah, Inferno staff does wonders but then you are stacking two stagger CC's so may as well use the better one (staff)
Idk I think the old rules are total bs now π

Like if you take purgatus into this shooter filled hellscape youβre fucking insane
what u guys think of the ww2 looking outfits in the shop. I remember those were all the way back at release i think
What stats should I be aiming for with this staff, this is my preferred staff due to stun lock an good single target damage but idk if I have a good stat roll
(I had bubble)
Damn, I have been playing Havoc and averaging like 15 rez's per mission with only 1 or 2 downs myself. Where you getting those teammates?
real
Waited until the boys got on to run the new mission at Auric Damn
That mission is so fuckin good
do i use mark 6 or mark 9 for force greatsword btw?
Mid, savlar chem dogs clear
6 is for elites, 8 is for hordes
imo 6 is vastly superior
Just puggin
both can handle whatever
i like the ogryn one
Doin 24 now
I am here after doing this to 3 swords in a row... no more dockets left now so guess i dont get a good sword lol
i rolled an 8 π
Oof
You lucky mf
Need a 4th? XD
Ouch. Yeah I'm having to save dockets again.
I'll just wait until someone gets to havoc 40 and then ask for a ride 
I won't but it'd be funny if I did
Are there any FGS skins available
After helping me with builds you can ride me any day bb
Only the red mastery I believe
full mastery red one
@dull gyro i want to say the build would look something like this, but i'm definitely not the best person here at buildcrafting
late comment but the greatsword definitely fucks up crushers as well as bulwarks with the force push + heavy attack on the mark 8
Ty
The mk8 just feels like a mocapped longsword moveset, I adore it
does that seem about right for the rest of you? for a support oriented GS Psyker?
i've gotten so much plasteel ever since i started doing auric missions. couldn't believe what i was missing out on lol
How about this? 5 points left, no idea where to distribuite and if its even any good
definitely melee psyker
second point in bubble shield
Quietude and perilous combustion are staples of any build. Also one with the warp is very strong
yea, with bubble for a bit of support
for one
bottom of the tree?
top
Top left and right below the auras
Nah we got drilled in the ass LOL
Did you have bubble
Zealots are kinda bad now in this shooter land
They want to waaagh
Then they get shot
Then you might also want soulstealer (top left)
I'm pretty sure Psyker is the Havoc meta since we don't want to get hit anyway like little babies
you prolly already know this but that's basically what they did lol. they took a lot of inspo from HEMA
Nah I had wall and was last man standing π couldnβt get zealots back up in time
so in summary, you're missing a talent in bubble shield, quietitude and soulstealer
I kinda agree but itβs so hard
1 left
WE'RE FINALLY META SIBLINGS

One With The warp
you can drop top left
So I am not a fan of the Greatsword. Doesn't really fit my playstyle
and grab one with the warp
This is my support FGS meme build, biggest thing about it is using left click spam with a run n gun Inferno Staff as your approach hordes to stun and start the fire
That's fine 
I feel like psykers spamming bubble or wall might be the play thru this shit
It's absolutely not
The melee part is pretty easy if you arenβt on zealot brain and actually block π
does this work well in auric and maybe havoc? im trying to mess with it ye
would need 2 points unfortunately
yeah
It's a meme build, but yes I use it on Auric Mael with my squad
which is why you drop the non quietitude one
Run n Gun with Inferno leftclick spam is what ties it together
Drop the 5% ranged damage node
Iβm seeing people with all the usual markers of excellence get mowed down
FGS when you close the distance
huh
I would imagine the end havoc meta is 4 psykers with bubble and trauma/inferno
and it should give you the points you need
Nah 4 invis zealots obviously
Anybody want to run some games? I still need the maelstrom for havoc
is there a build that ppl actually use with bb shield that isnt entirely meme centered? i want to use inferno staff xd
Coalβs trauma with rending and fire goes pretty hard
Can't you tell by the 3 lemmings in every game seeking different corners to cry in?
boom, got it then
Oh for Inferno Staff, yes
Rending AND fire?
perfect, see how that works for you
Yeah
Inferno actually pairs well with those, I run that on auric mael sometimes
DeadVoid is probably the one to ask there
ok, that settles it. Time to test out and I'll be back in a couple days, need lvl30
thanks!!!1
oo bet, can I see your build(s)
np
@nocturne dust you want to run? can't get any teammates who aren't clueless
final
sure, but I'll need like 10 minutes
i'll go for one more
is there a bp setup to delete crushers?
got ya
do you guys ever experiment with your psykers gender or nah
i wish to murder lol
Yes, my Psyker is a femboy
the uh the ranged damage node is still there
mine's a character i've been usin since MUDs in the 90s
where
Gotta have those warp socks on
@ me when you guys go in, i will join for sure
doin the kitchen rn

chat, I present the throngler
Ill be on if you guys want to play @nocturne dust
How long
for an hour to 2
@zinc phoenix @fiery stratus I am ready
Me tooπ’
I only have time for one game so dw π
What does this mean
anybody know the dump stat for the blaze force GS?
warp res
danke
added both of you
Blessing list and moveset guide also.
Me?
had no where else to go with chaos spawn and nurgle pushing me
oof abandoned
ily
They already made GRAPHS?
someone beans is friends with ended up joining shortly before you
le sad
You'll be forever in my heart, always 
@nocturne dust we're team 23 if you wanna hear my ramblings
lmao, immediately DCed me
I know Budding Interrogator is a nothing title but I like the idea of being an Interrogator 
why did my mods deactivate?
Psyker chat I must ask, how is havoc
is it because the game updated? try running the mod patcher in the game folder to make sure
its in the mod folder?
in the F:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Warhammer 40,000 DARKTIDE folder
the file to run is called toggle_darktide_mods
if you do 3 lights and then a heavy it does the sprinting attack on the VI
I don't like running voidstrike when someone else has voidblast staff. Kept getting blue balled right before my fully charged blast hit a pack of elites.
riposte/unstable power or riposte/wrath for a GS scrier gaze build?
I think I found the inspiration for Commissar Dukane's voice. lol https://youtu.be/D-5Vu74N9FM?si=KWDOUwJIu2YHQ_7W

is the new mode a flop or?>
why a?
its a flop
only the host gets progression apparently
everybody else guys updated weekly
gets*
what
everyone gets progression but only the host's mission updates after completion
that sounds more accurate
unstable power/precog
why did they make it like that
probably a bug they're going to fix eventually

oh well besides the bug, does it suck?
Itβs uncanny
Lol
π€·ββοΈ
to bad the special dosent work with the spring attack
well I cant log in, game keeps crashing
did you just enable your mods?
how do u have that sight on your weapon?
Mods
probably weapon customization mod
Mods
which mod?
Weapon Customization extended
the mod is unstable because it hasn't been patched for the new update, so beware, might cause a crash or two until its updated. disabled it for now
Yea it'll crash if you open up customization on any of the new weapons, even to change a charm
Everything else works fine though, so long as you dont open that you're money
how does overheat on fgs work
Doesnt have an overheat
Thats the Relic Sword on Zealot that does
just a kill charge system that decays slowly if not used
you can explode yourself with special if youre not careful
very hard to do though since you probably wont use it often enough
Yea you would need to charge the special while already at 100 and well, thats on you
is unstable power/deflector greatsword a decent pick on a scrier's gaze build?
how u do that?
unstable power/precog
since scriers gives you crit and FGS has finesse modifier
slightly possible if you stop paying attention mid-gaze but damn its a silly mistake to make
I told you how earlier. lol
Assumed you enabled your mods, and some outdated one was causing a crash, but if they're disabled, maybe not.
The new sword is interesting. I've never had good melee skills. What are people running with it? Scriers and DD?
GS mk6 or 8?
I think I like the Mk8 better?
i fw it a lot and im just using it with bb shield atm
Scriers DD will get the most value
6 or 8 depends on whether you like assail weaving or no
DD is always very good with melee, I like shriek instead of scrier's personally, but scriers is good
how do you enable them? thought u just launch game anyway
8 might be more challenging if you swap alot
8
I've rarely used scriers. I tried it last game with the new sword and I was immediately freaked out by my lack of vent. π
gs 8 goes hard
Thereβs a batch file to toggle mods in your game directory
No. in the F:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Warhammer 40,000 DARKTIDE folder
the file to run is called toggle_darktide_mods
Scriers is a very different playstyle
Scriers is taking your training wheels off
Instead of spamming staff/assail from mid range you just rush in
Lol
Youβre popping a wheelie for 42 minutes
Sarcasm completely aside itβs the most fun Iβve had playing DT, even if I main zealot
If you have warp unbound, does that put training wheels back on?
cuz I forget I dont have it sometimes and blow up
No because you can't save yourself with gaze
If you donβt use shriek, warp unbound is kinda essential to not blowing yourself up with my build
Assail Gazer + Surge Staff/Exorcist FS
Gonna try FGS when I get home tonight. Iβm so hype
Both
mk6 has stab h2
6 is on heavy loop, 8 is on pushattack
Okay so MK6 with +carapace/+maniac and Wrath & Unstable Power, pretty good
The force push into stab is so sexy
Also if you edge 100% long enough to get 20-30 stacks, that 10s of absolutely juiced DPS phase will make your rat brain light up
It's my Scrier's build but like, nat 1 shot no buffs on mutie, and potential 2 shot on crusher
10s of the strongest assail known to humankind
It's madness
I'm digging the Mk6 Covenant
EP for heavy rocks
DD for elite gamers who are not me because I get build paralysis and havenβt tried it yet
Hmmm what blessings on greatsword
Itβs disgustingly good with recon gunker tho
Wrath and Unstable so fun
Im enjoying rampage and unstable
H1->L2 kills ragers on headshot
DD is really good with assail. Charge throw at a highlighted enemy to headshot kill for 3 easy DD stacks whenever you need it
The only way to kill ragers is to push attack and then stab their exposed butt while they get up
use mk6 than instead of mk8
Is warp splitting + wrath overkill on cleave?
I think my biggest problem with DD is that I donβt have enough points to comfortably build it for surge scrying
So Iβd have to pick up an IAG or something and go gunker 
Iβd just drop assail and go full build swap
Do you take the new right side melee skills like crack of bone?
I made the switch from warp siphon + surge to DD + surge and never looked back
Fair question, that's like what? +300% cleave
DD is pretty slick now with the new changes. The marked targets are always near the old one and in front of you
i'd probably run crack of bone w/ scrier's
if bubble/shriek, probably not
purgatus
Do you take ER for the reduced peril gen?
Anyone know them deep maths? Is +300% cleave overkill?
If it wasnβt so low down left tree I wouldnβt have to use so many points getting back over there from taking scriers 
I do when I'm going staff-heavy yes, also use shriek. I prefer shriek to scriers with a staff build
Most weapons have a limit to how many enemies they can hit regardless of cleave, and the great sword has good cleave already. I think 300% would be past the limit unless it was all elites
but i dont have the numbers
no
unless you're referring to the limit that the engine can handle
then yes, but i don't think you are
You'd have a better idea Arc, is 300% cleave overkill yah think?
definitely overkill for non-havoc
you might want to load on cleave for havoc and esp if it's moebian 21st (since they have higher hitmass than groaners)
it's prob fine to run wrath and/or warp splitting if you want to but it's a bit overkill imo, since you can usually farm on individual kills for the warp slice
but being able to cleave to stagger enemies is nice on normal attacks
Wish Warp Slice didn't have a CD so we can pair it with Blazing Spirit for fun.
Special Attack doesnt even proc Blazing Spirit for some reason
lol
a playtester remarked that was intentional
which makes sense
but blazing spirit L once again
blazing spirit melee, the forever bad
"woah woah woah, nerf blazing spirit again. cant let it be useful, now can we!"
whatβs a good talent tree build with smite
Fire
Just tried out the sword this is fun
the new swords really got me interested in Psyker again
So Smite makes other stuff deal increased damage, so combine that with just, all the fire stuffs
Infernus lasguns then?
get your soulflame stacks, then hit them with smite and they melt
Is there no way to Earn the Psykana Tunic (Moebian 53RD)? Cause it says the Shoot fast Penance but I have that one and dont have the Armor
the trouble is you have to kill things to activate those, or run inferno staff and smite which do similar jobs. Smite doesn't really have the damage to kill much except small enemies
venting shriek with the creeping flames ability is a must
nice ty
yeah and it says already patched
Creeping Flames and Purgatus do not require killing, and killing elites to proc more soulflame stacks isnt hard either
muh baby
Get a bunch of stacks off Purg, Shout, then use smite
i hope they don't nerf this turd
I dont know why they would, weapon seems fine
Not like they touched Dueling Sword or Deimos
Yeah Fat Fish only nerfs Ogryns
infinite cleave could probably go away
lol on the special?
ye
Oh does Special attack got infinite cleave? nice
that's your issue with it?
yeah
I thought @summer prairie posted a video showing it wasn't infinite cleave
it's pretty short range and narrow and not terribly strong lol
does the special have damage falloff with range or something?
yeah it falls off with range
ok
Ahh
The special seems slightly misleading because itβs not as wide as you feel imo but I just started tbh
with an awful blessing, yes
With crits i think it has the blessing
not good
Let's goooo
Idc if the consensus is that it's bad Scrier's Soulblaze build with the Moonlight Greatsword
Blazing Spirit is a god awful melee blessing
good luck
another thing is that infinite cleave also means that you ignore the hitmass scaling of enemies in havoc
it would be straightforward to just give it high but finite cleave
Great on Trauma
If I set things on fire it's funny
sooo the greatsword special cant inflict soulblaze with the blessing?
Nope
ok, so useless
Yah
Moonlight Greatsword I didnβt realize how right you are until you said it 
rippp
Wait it doesn't apply on special? Nvm then
Yah Special can not proc Blazing Spirit, even with the crit blessing
That's a SHAME
uncharged special wave is 100 base damage. Begins falling off at 8m until 16m to 10% damage (so 10 damage)
t1 charge is 450 base, begins falling off at 10m until 18m
t2 charge is 850 base, begins falling off at 12m until 20m
seems like a decent amount of range and damage that I would not want to have infinite cleave
whatβs the best keystone to pair with it?
Empowered blitz is good with Smite
if you really wanna be a hardcore Smyker, empowered psionics prolly
Smyker is a really good fire build, but like, don't just stand in crowds doing bare minimum cc with uncharged smite
Either use a Blazing Spirit Trauma Stave or a Purgatus
Yeah, smite with shriek and fire spread is better than people give it credit for. I still prefer most staves and assail to smite, but it's perfectly good.
which ones the flamethrower staff
purgatus/infernop
im not going to be able to switch off the mk 6 greatsword, it is too damn fluid
It got renamed to Inferno, but Purgatus
oh ok
The blessing doesn't work with the special
ikr? Once I got those attack chains figured out, weapon so fun
Cringeee okay regular scrier's build with the moonlight greatsword
Clearly we need to do what they did to dueling swords and give it to vet and zealot so i can play those classes again
I do really wish there was a soulblaze-focused melee. Inferno staff functions pretty well even in close quarters, but it'd be cool to have something.
I mean, Zealot did get the Power Sword that function, similarly
Just use wrath+riposte
Zealot got Relic Blade which feels amazing
Very boring blessings since there's no synergy
and I wish lighting got its own synergizing abilities and buffs like soulblaze does
The peril reduction one is pointless since you kill enough to not need it
im too locked into force sword, it's peak that I can't imagine anything will top so I can't switch loadouts for the next week
I mean I enjoy Unstable Power over Riposte personally
No need for momentum because it's bad
unstable with scriers, otherwise riposte with a bubble shield ye
I got plenty crit chance with scriers
Could do, I'm using it with a revolver so I'm not at high peril consistently enough compared to just dodging
Getting so much peril reduction from that kill talent that I'm not really maxed out unless I force it
I use a Infantry Autogun myself, great boss damage and can still pick off soft elites, also assail, cause like, it's assail lol
I'm going to try the finesse for 2s after work
Yeah I just hate the autogun so I'm not using it
Went smite because psykinetics aura
Don't need assail with revolver anyways
I always see the 2s and say "ew", I'm always too stubborn to try it even though everyone recommends it
It's short but it should be up consistently enough
with how often you dodge in this game it's up a lot
Might just be the martyrdom in me but dodging is an illusion if you just kill fast enough you don't need it
Highest rank of havoc I complete is what I'll start at after the weekly reset, right?
(Even if it's someone else's assignment)
You want to block and dodge as melee psyker, can't be as careless as a zealot can
my brain just doesn't like the idea of a 2s buff even if it's activated constantly, lol. I'm going to give it the try it deserves though
Nothing quite like dodging a crusher overhead and then one tapping them back
Precognition is terrible don't listen to them
Because some people live in lala land and like to pretend it's consistently up
uh oh, its not consensus π¨ π¨
HALP
tbh, as long as you have the material, just try it lol
the weapon literally came out today, find what you personally like
Try it and, if you can, record a game so you can see the terrible uptime yourself
For duellingsword, precog vs riposte ended up being similar vs plagryn solo
lol, that is what the simulation in my brain is sayinggg so I'm scared
the sword doesn't really need buffs for damage lol
the crits are humongous on it and it's got some insane heavy combos
AND THIS. Riposte actually gives MORE damage over the long term vs monstrosities if you have other finesse boosts like DD
I love cranial corruption from crushers
defense on force gs affects dodging right?
I agree
it better be maxed if you're taking precog
@nocturne dust
And sprint speed and dodge distance

we get 40 tonight

I don't like short uptime buffs like that in general unless it's on ciag or accatran
soo.. wrath/riposte maybe?

I feel like I can fight 5 maulers and only get riposte buff after 2 of them are already dead
join us
i wanna make my stats look better
But vs horde probably it's better
the tragedy of maulers getting staggered by basically anything
for this things horendous doges
im doing wrath and unstable currently
@analog agate ya on?
rager packs are a near death sentence unless planned for with this thing without momentum. momentum you can get a lil sloppy
Alright I'm in love with "master sword" Psyker, shooting energy waves is so much fun. So how do I build a melee psyker lol never tried that playstyle for psyker
I feel like unstable would be good on the greatsword only if you use scriers
then yeah
And if your team has any form of cc and ogryn run or smite song shout riposte/precog gets zero value
So wait is momentum good on the gs then?
Also tranquility. Is the quelling from it worth it on SG?
2nd blessing is open imo
Crack is usually enough to reach 30 stacks

Why would you need even more toughness generation on psyker
I currently run unstable/riposte
in melee?
@nocturne dust @strong gulch atlussy and i invite you to havoc
They already have a trillion regen
I want 2 trillion

melee toughness regen is hard on psyker lol
it's literally the worst class for that
I usually just throw assails to refill toughy

As long as you're gaining and losing peril then you're gaining toughness
But if you hate assail then momentum
maniac/flak or cara/unyielding?
sounds great on paper man lol
Hey, just got off. Iβll be on tomorrow 5-11 or 12 central time though.

only really works out great for staves
sounds good
It's worked out well enough for myself in aurics
cool story
glad it goes well for ya, still doesn't invalidate momentum on gs lol



Also, trauma/bubble is going to be a big asset for sure

extra toughness regen when playing with the escaped mental ward patients in havoc/auric doesn't hurt
so i gotta uninstall the mods but i forgot which files exactly to delete smh
fatshark classic
but i want to use the mods
psyker survivability in melee is known to be hilariously bad unless you're absolutely cracked. i don't see a issue with moment
Dump stat for greatsword?
res
So comment them out of the mod order?
warp res
yeah but how would I use the mods tho
i want to fix it
You don't have to comment them all out....
oh i see what u mean
I got a better list
Current mods with issues after Havoc update
- Numeric UI
- Spidey Sense UPDATED
- Dynamic Crosshair
- Power DI
- Warp Unbound Timer
- Loadout Monitor
- Chat Block
- Share Talents
- Warp God
- Tome Markers
- Danger Zone
i have numeric and chatblock
My only complaint about about the mark 8 is the pa stab
I dislike it greatly
other than that I like it more than the mark 6
It feels too finnicky to get to and when I do get to it half the time I knock the thing I want to stab away.
and i like using numeric UI
what curios should i be running btw? currently all 15% toughness
preferential
especially when facing an elite stack, I end up pushing my target behind a crusher
most recommend 2 tough one +3 or 3 tough
not ideal
I finally did a mael just now. π
disabling numeric and chatblock fixed it thanks
We earned it.
Reminds me of City of Heroes balancing. Knockback was, technically, simply doing enough kinetic force to a target to make it fly away instead of just stumble...
But what happened was the devs would take any "too strong" attack and up its force values to knockback everything and ruin time-on-target, and you'd have to sacrifice modslots to get a KB to KD converter.
both have been updated
Very normal, very cool maelstrom.
Nothing went wrong, and we did not get triple the spawns.
it was ez made the ai director our bitch

I do like the way our psykers look holding the sword
Huh idk then. Game crashed every time I tried logging in with my character
now we can look at least a little physically threatening
its the most fun build for me rn to be honest
jesus christ maels are so mad rn
I've been trying what I THOUGHT was gonna be a meme build with the new sword, Soulblaze on crit, with a soulblaze melee build.. It's pretty hot.
big armor up
"it's pretty hot"




That was a regular old kneeslapper
turn your psyker into the ultimate cross between unchained sienna and grail knight kruber
real shit
MY MAN KNOWS WHATS UP
I don't see how I can ever use another melee again.
This is where my mind is currently going, but I still have zero experience with melee psyker so idk wtf I'm doing trying to spec my talent tree. I also don't understand scrier's gaze as I've never used it, how do you keep yourself from blowing up?
Warp unbound
thar is talent in scryers that keeps you from blowing up
So... I guess that node is mandatory?
Not really, there's just no reason not to take it.
real hedge knight shit, 100% unfiltered sienna shit going on
well without it, you're just downing yourself every time you activate scrier, from what I currently understand
Accelerated edging.
It can be a life saver, if you find things are easy you can try without it. I specced, Smite/ Scriers and no keystones.
I need an army of psyker breton knights
No it just stops at 100%
It's basically a carte blanche to go ham .
You only blow up if you generate peril at 100% without warp unbound.
Just like normal
No, it stops at 100%. There is a perk that stops peril generation for like 10* or so seconds after hitting 100%, so you can throw shards or let off a warpshock slash.
The 10 seconds of unlimited max peril IS peak, though
So it puts you at 100% in the middle of melee combat to pair with big peril buffs.
Indeed it is.
@lethal lagoon looking for havoc?
ohhhh. That explains it, so it's not automatic, but if you were doing shit that generated peril right as it hit 100 it would feel like you automatically overloaded, and I was blaming that ability
Nah
