Pure fecking luck. Brunt pitied me.
the rotating shop?
wtf
Oh lol sorry. It was from the grey shop. Brunt's armoury.
How much peril does it build?
good question
have they increased the max value of greys he gives?
actually i guess it doesn't do that much if 60% warp res is already almost 40% and the max is 61%
It's like 6% peril difference
I empowered it to 460. WR started at like 6 and the next lowest stat was like 56 or something.
ahh ok
Oh gotcha. I was gonna check.
I need them to raise brunt to 400 max rating so there is a chance to get a 0 80 80 80 80 again.
Ummm lol wtf. The peril didn't show up for like 2 seconds after I hit the FGS special.
oh 8% difference
I guess i won't bother aiming for it until i'm rich enough
I only have like 1 mill
does dumdum stay active with melee weapons out
Yeah. 1 mil will be gone so quick if ur stat hunting like that.
honestly considering a ghost + empathic evasion build for havocs 
I don't blame you
Havoc ranged enemies are fucked up
not sure if worth dropping dumdum for ghost tho
or if this is good to just proc empathic evasion forever
ghost is prob better nvm
I wish i could reorder my loadouts
gonna remake 6 of my builds just to shift one of them to the left
oh wait i can just keep copying the loadout until it's in the right order
anticipation will also increase the dodge timing for this so it is actually pretty good
shit i need a 3rd 17% toughness curio
bet
anticipation doesn't interact with that
what anticipation does is increase the "linger time" of the i-frames of your spacebar dodges, and it doesn't interact with empathic evasion/ghost/etc.
same brother
20 and 16/17 over here

the hp breakpoint no longer matters to me because of the -35% hp thing in havoc
I just want more toughness now
I see
is that a modifier?
vs 2xtough 1xstam?
who needs stamina with KD + FGS 
permanent hidden modifier.
on god i never noticed 
along with a max of a flat -45 toughness
im still using the tazer bonk
staff psyker be laughin
the staff psyker in question:
no ammo, no prob
queel speed is nerfed too
yo ass better be meleeing
ok this stupid build actually workin https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9da61e5d-d8de-41c7-90fe-cf6545351908/fgs-assail-bubble-dd
well scheiΓe
does anyone know if that is quell tick rate, or peril tick amount?
i cant stress enough how much i would not run this in an AM π havoc only
wait it says base toughness
so that's before curio increases?
that's fucked up
Enjoy your ogryn base toughness of 5
no wonder they buffed psyker based toughness
enjoy your -30 base toughness effectively
blessed i love meleeing
but yeah it seems like the last level is just "you get no abilities and have to just melee everything also there are a million baddies"
oh so the dueling sword movement tech was patched, dangit
butterknife too?
im new, i have no idea what that is π¦ just found a video on moving quickly with dueling sword to see its been patched
seeing a zealot csgo surf halfway across the map with the combat dagger frustrates me sometimes
balancing around havoc 
Understandable
We're all doing wacky shit to grab scraps of survivability for havoc
My FGS + EK Staff build for havoc so far is...
Damage is now the dumpstat 
*shot
assail bubble with burgatus shriek made for some very smooth runs is all im sayin
amazing
any of the regulars hit 30 yet?
I know some people have mentioned it
im still at clearance 23, couldnt find a higher group to glom onto π but actual at 21 so thats nice
people are so bitchy about who gets to start the mission in this system
Maybe syllo and agentchaos have reached it by now? I played with them this morning for 27
yeah i screwed up twice in the 28 attempt π€¦ββοΈ my vet play is not good enough for havoc
Might have to bubblemax myself
I had to play support zealot and got my ass carried
I was not ready for how cancer havoc pox gas was
if i am running asail with heavy laspistol and want to try something new, whats a good build to try to mix it up?
honestly i dont think toughness damage reduction does anything in havoc
my vet had i kid you not like 150
so many fucking console scrubs and ancient players returning rn
and i was dropping like nothing to a few shooters
Shooters just have annoying dmg buffs
ive started putting on 1-2 corrupt resist for my curios
pox gas sucks so bad
well with psyker i can mostly deal with them via loads of crits into EE
It was pox gas with the pools of corrupting acid on kill
so much corruption
no space to move
truly horrifying
yeah... i will probably swap all the toughness bits on my curios for corruption resist pretty soon π
Both the ground and the air was corruption
fatshark pullin out all the stops to get us to go for support abilities
beacon of purity was putting in work
crowd control meta incoming
i believe
i feel like BoP + bubble + purgatus is pretty legit
as a team comp
i fully loaded assail + was edging for warp splitting and that did some nice work on the hordes
Nomanus is pretty decent at dealing with ragers and gunners from my experience, and the alt fire can kill crushers and stop bursters half decently
but yeah BoP and bubble are a dream to have on the same team
electrokinetic force staff mk VI
yeah the guy who switched to purgatus was playin smite surge before but when he saw it was pox/dogs/no lights he switched π
oh and i think blight too
surge staff is good for dogs if its normal amounts of dogs
abnormal amounts of dogs only plz π
if not normal amount, smite is there but yeah i get your meaning
wait is there only 1 bolter gun or am I trpping
cuz I thought there was regular bolter and then heavy bolter
there is bolter and bolt pistol, bolters little brother
psyker doesnt get spearhead
tbf full on packs is agony for basically everything except vraks and smite lol
ah i mean in the context of veteran
assail shreds em too
trauma
bolt pistol cleans up
bolter=normal boltgun
flamer roasts and toasts the dog herds
everyone just calls bolt pistol bistol
bristol β€οΈ
ew, britain
ah ok
bistol weapon specialist vet is always fun
i saw another vet using smoke π i think it might be havoc meta
Hand cannon and surgical for revolver right?
"fuck damage i just want to live" seems to be the sentiment
did they tweak smoke this update?
anyone got a build for bolter vet? Vet chat is dead
havoc just makes gunners and shooters that scary
damn
sorry wrong reply
if using agrippina best option is to switch back to zarona
i think you can just slot it into a standard voc vet
is numericUI and chatblock okay to enable again in my loader

voc?
voice of command
shout
RAHHH
i know there are some funky executioner stance builds for bolter to avoid having to draw it
does exec stance skip the draw animation
If you update them, yes.
do I have to download it again?
its so rare for people to actually mald in chat
My game crashed twice while trying to do Auspex, something mod related.
Look at my loadorder, if anyone has these theres a possibility it could happen to you too
cant type hands reserved for incredible violence
there was a guy in one of my games a few days ago saying the same thing and that he couldnt use relic sword or do auspex because of it
Barrels are so fucking annoying in this game
is the mk8 heavy damage at all comparable to the mk6 heavy damage?
tru
the numbers are in-game
You still have access to the thrust heavy after push shove
On mk8
whats the best blessings for a great sword
Wrath and personal choice
and can someone help me understand how it works? like the block knocks down? and it shoots fireballs when its full?
deflector seems strong?
why don't they have block slash data lmao
Kills build up energy, energy decays when not in combat, two different tiers of energy buff the special attack dmg and falloff
Energy is entirely consumed on special activation
Also it goes through walls
not one tick of warpfire stolen
for surge staff, i've been using shock maul for horde/mutant control but it doesnt feel all that great, any suggestions? FGS feels like it requires a lot of upkeep to work
Can anyone give me assail + shield build for support style psyker? Need it for havoc
Does a heavy attack change the behavior of the beam on the heavy force sword compared to a light attack?
heavy attack only affects the direct hit of the swing
the wave that comes out will be the same regardless of whether it's a light/heavy
assail > shield > warp charges(bottom left keystone),
focus on elites and specials when you can. i run void strike staff but the voidblast/trauma is good as well. melee is preferential but something that can do some armour damage is always good
I mainly wanna kill regular shooters, cuz emperor's light is no joke
They are by far the most threatening enemy
yeah i'm experimenting with ghost + empathic evasion + true aim right now cus shooters hurt at 20+
how far do you need to invest in warp charges?
psychic vampire is good if you can reach it
warp battery is great but not necessary imo
the push strength on the hfs is crazy
Fr
hfs?

which is better, warp siphon or empowered?
I don't play mush psyker
wait, 150 base reduced by -35% is 97.5
10% from talent tree increases that to 107.25hp
sniper does 122.5 damage...
fuck i'm still not free from taking a sniper perk for sniper breakpoints
But now it's to stop a 1 shot instead of a 2 shot
Heavy force sword, you can bully crushers with it
pus hardened skin + moebian 21st is nuts
if you spam ult then battery less good. if you take the peril resist left sub node and sit on ult forever then battery gooder.
-85% vent speed 
What builds are yall running with FGS? Is it the centerpiece, or just for a specific part of your build to shore up weaknesses? What do you guys think the weaknesses are for FGS, and what synergizes well with it?
Ive been theorycrafting for what feels like hours now and cant decide on how to build with it
SG is the shit with FGS
Im trying to keep it as the centerpiece
and yeah same
i run FGS as a centerpiece, but I don't shy away from using assail
i don't think FGS makes for a great sidearm
if you're running it, it should prob be the focus of the build
i just use assail to pump my peril up and get MM stacks and go to town
personally I like bubble for the survivability, i'm just trying to figure out how to keep assail and also have the dome on short cooldown
warp charges
Real
i really think going just all right side is the way with FGS
besides havoc maybe, but havoc is kinda its own thing
psykinetic's aura is always good, though hard to pick along with assail...
This is mine, I use the Mk 8
gunker
Have been having fun with https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9d9da1cb-d42f-4bba-878e-541a8bbe82f9/2h-fs-theorycraft-melee-psyker . FGS is main weapon, trauma comes out when 5 stack true aim to apply sblaze and soften things up. Runs 80-100 peril pretty nicely. Smite is pure pathing.
Thank you
Do the Soulblaze talent end up giving much toughness?
not worth if PC is the only source of soulblaze imo
Havoc is honestly really fun in the early ranks
(why is this node on the right hand side lol)
this ive been running it in the mid 20s and its been doing ok
but remember everything is up in the air and the people who genuinely know wtf theyre doing are operating on a different skillset than us plebes π
then?
I'd question some points here and there, but overall seems just what I wanted
what are you running for your secondary?
recon las or las pistol to proc empathic evasion and deal with annoying ranged targets that assail is less efficient for
yeah its super playstyle dependent, i've been switching between trauma and sword to make sure i have soulfire always up for example π and i been spamming the special to keep peril up too, its mental
edging peril on assail has also been carrying me in some nasty spots
sometimes I leave missions if there is another psyker of the same build
i think using crack as the primary quell is gonna get more and more important the further up i go
too many chefs in the kitchen
depends, bubble regen stacks dont it?
stacking the duration is a big deal imo
also being able to alternate bubbles is good for making sure we're covered
shooters got me growing eyes in the back of my head
what blitz do you run on a soulblaze build?
two smykers in the same mission gets old very fast
Dear psyker players, i ask for the thousanth time today who got a force greatsword build
slap it on your scriers build
ah thank you
What's the advantage of revolver over bolt pistol? Pistol does more damage, has more ammo, and reloads faster
what gun you use with this?
witness the folly of man
because im about to do something stupid
aw fuck
thats the wrong sword
no thats what i mean
it knows
the machine spirit understands its purpose
and its purpose is to burn
what does cleaving do btw? does it increase damage at all?
Me like how the FGS also has a sprinting attack even though I don't think they mentioned it

Starting a heavy while sprinting lets you move a lot faster than starting a heavy and then trying to sprint
does the charged strike smite node do anything useful
It makes sparkles.
increases the max dudes you hit per swing
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9da63804-973f-4163-bcb6-fd3503f51533/fgs-bubbles-buildcraft
warp siphon FGS?
pierce
Hit moar dood
through to the next guy, carries on a certain percent after the first guy gets hit
ive been running fgs + warp siphon + shield and it feels great as a kind of safety build.
force great sword
it's between this and the surge staff smite build
though i do run smite on fgs simply for point cost reduction
is 1 bar of charge good enough for the beam to kill squishies
okay ive been cooking now with the feedback everyone has given me in here. what do we think of this build?
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9da6394c-ca97-4640-a62c-5ca79d78d81b/gunker-w-fgs
my surge staff build has a shock maul and i'm halfway to swapping it out for a FGS
accatran las/vraks infantry
Thought process is IAG for bosses, and ranged elites. FGS is Hordes and Melee elites. Assail is snipers and building peril
sounds like a psyker i just ran havoc with
the surge staff?
i had a psyker with that exact setup like 5m ago
Is Voidstrike dropstat blast radius?
no
quell?
I feel like it used to be blast radius, but I kind of liked it.
drop quell and run "peril reduction on weakspot" and it wrecks house. cant confirm past havoc 18 or so
blast radius does things?
yea, not by much but some things lol
id do riposte precog
im a wrath unstable power guy myself
wrath is really good but you can maybe get away with using warp splitter
instead
i've been running deflector bc havoc shooters are aids
deflector and riposte yeehaw
Yeah someone mentioned that but I'm doing an assail shriek build rn so no space
For the melee nodes

I feel like Wrath + Warp Splitting is overkill on cleave for Auric and AM, maybe not so with havoc tho
ye
first bar is 450 base damage
wrath is just really good if you aren't doing warp splitter and staying at high peril with scriers or assail spam
neat got this by accident somehow
I didn't even know that's what unlocked those pants
same
imagine if there was one for not being hit by ranged 
yes
i know shotgunners are
damn
veterans the poor sobs have this
Is warp slice remotely good?
seems easy on malice π€·ββοΈ
no
warp slice?
Activates special on crits
no, it crits on special
Oh

every 20 seconds or so at max rank
oh that one
So every wave you send crits?
its funny
Ngl how broken would that be with no cool down
the stupid special crit doesn't even proc soulblaze that blessing is garbo
Cause without stacks
probably not all that much since you still have to charge it
Special is pretty ass
possibly a bug, it doesn't proc the toughness on crit talent for psyker either
which is definitely a bug
what the
wow
I feel like if it was 0s a cool ranged swordker build could be made for it
According to testers, soulblaze not working with special is intended
use soulblaze on crit blessing lol
https://www.reddit.com/r/DarkTide/comments/1h62kcz/new_psyker_greatsword_is_sooo_satisfying/ and with charges
why fatshark
Doesn't work with ranged slice
why do you do this
Dummy
Fatshark said no fun allowed
the warp slice is so hot and sexy and beautiful and nice i will take it on a nice date to atoma applebees
Don't Care, still SHREDS
Wait so does it do damage based on max charges
eeeeeeehhhhhh
having a pocket shriek wouldve been so fucking funny
warp slice is whatever
Takes a little too long to charge with all the other problems of decay and immediately being gone if you get hit at the wrong moment
mark 6 heavy chain my beloved, warp slice my beloved
trying to use a fully charged beam sucks
Also what did you think I was talking about before
I haven't tried using the half charge yet
the special in general not the blessing lol
Oh lol
Warpshock slash π
also it like instantly kills an entire horde
It's amazing to get the gunners behind bulwarks.
I wish it killed the bulwarks too though
that'd be a bit much i think
If plasma gun can have infinite pen why can't sword
i haven't tried with warp rider, scriers and +20% strength blessing yet tho
maybe its just the craziest thing
comparing things to plasma gun is not healthy 
This is fair
so do your warp slice charges go away if you get hit? or if you activate it Then get hit, Your charges die
i think even if you could only shoot a single charged shots and no uncharged shots ever with plasma gun every 10 seconds it would still get powerful
if youi activate then get hit
@fresh reef did you just get d/c'd too
on a single target.
solution: give plasma gun lmb to force great sword
yeah rip
Mk6 or mk8
@tired estuary which one were you? wanna add ya for later you seem cool
yeah i just meant general satisfaction level
I think someone here said mk8 was more complex
I was Aoife and ye thx
But they basically perform the same
same here
the two greatswords do seem to mostly perform the same
finally a 25+ havok where people have fully upgraded weapons
unbelievable luck
and that happens
hate it here lmao
Lol
unupgraded weapons in the endgame of endgames is actually insane
its called hardmode
you scrubs..
got instantly deleted
bro
yeah its official,
then the tauntgryn in duo situation ulted chaos spawn and backpedalled across map while blocking
and my fat bimbo ass was chasing them down with relic butt pokes
love it here
also sent fr request
I've never used shock maul
i prob should at least check it out at some point but i like my swords
anyone knows if havoc gets more interesting before 21+
it's a pain to host and try to get 4 people in party finder
deimos and covenant are peak gaming 
it was good-ish for smite build
but kept having issues with crushers and mutants
special does pretty well against crusher
range and the initial hit kinda sucked
this makes me so happy
tase em, lets you go to your next move
I've never had issues with any melee weapons against mutants
ig, but the range feels awful
if you find auric maelstrom a snorefest, probably not
I've heard somewhere around mid 20s is where it starts being "damnation"
this game has a bell curve of coherency
Just 20
the crowd clear really kinda sucks on the maul tho compared to other options
no that's the thing, havoc 17 right now is a snorefest compared to auric mael
id rather play lights out as an ogryn preflashlight than play the modifiers on 15-20 havoc
guys i made my first 500

11-20 is still heresy
21 is where damnation begins
grats, me too earlier this week, ironically said shock maul im dropping
i still am conflicted on blessings
the toufh enemies and lights out is harder than auric mael
you should swap out uncanny with slaughterer, you're not killing maulers/crushers with that
uncanny? or slaughterer
i run slaught
Ok but a crozius skin for the mace would go so hard
riposte precog
i forgot shotgun scriers was a thing
i love this shit
fuck da new sword
hoard clear in my can
i don't kill maulers/crushers with my sword anyway. i just smite/surge cc and let my teammtes do all the work
then run slaught
ew
better horde
yeah okay, that sounds about right. the only scary modifier so far is the nurgle blessing but like twice as tanky
more likely for the crusher than the shock maul, that's a space marine sized weapon aint it?
1h for them, 2h for us
They only go away if you get staggered while casting
damn, i was a 6 supporter for the fgs, after actually uysing the 8 at a level where it mattered that easy access stab is too good to give up
swap the initial 6 and 8 yeah, 6 has the stabs, 8 has a swing first
unless im just reading it wrong
your message confuses me
i was using 6 bc i liked it more when i palying with some low level buddies, back alone in auric and the 8 having access to a stab right after the blockpush is too good to give up
hrm
oh after block push
the heavy stabs on the 6 tho
6 just opens with strikedown heavy no gimmick
easy access stab
huh?
6 is the one with easy access stab
block push into stab
8 you gotta push to get to stab
that's not easy access lol
Idk I'm still torn on whether I prefer 6 or 8
I'm pretty happy with 6
8 is faster which is nice
it's not exactly hard to pull off
they're very samey
But I gotta go with 6 I think
just push > stab
stagger locking stuff in front of you while also going into heavy stab is super nice
I much prefer 6
Idk how to describe it but 6 feels like it does more damage
6's stabs are better imo
just spam heavies
Even though they're functionally the same

both feel good for different reasons
tbh FGS has mostly just made me wish deimos and obscurus had usable specials lol
specials suck
embrace the non-special madness
that's illisi

with a completely normal buff bar btw
also how did we get new weapons with no skins for them?
probably on the next rotation
Mk VIII vs VI comparison, on a 250 PL (im still levelling it dont judge me)

also 2 in the docket shop
Mastery skins
seems largely the same on normals, if slightly weaker due to having to block cancel the VI to keep vanguard attack chain going
wiat we dont even have docket ones
unless they are covered under the base force sword one
never did
poor docket shop, one day they'll remember you exist
i hope the hadron skin looks really stupid
rip
Not as bad as candy cane knife, lol
i love the dumbass knife skin
oh damn that does look decent huh
the 2 docket ones are in the api
ninjad
but it do look kinda nice
yeah lol
i like the base skin for my goofy ass fashion
knife one is peak 
same, but with mk 8
swag
greatsword is peak fashion
i bounce between the 2
cant decide which i like more
the 8 has a better hilt imo
it do
plus the wheel pommel
I want greatsword skins
the 6 has the better blade
i like the block stab of the 8, but the core heavies of the 6 are more fun
i dont like the running attack that the 6 has
I like the light attack chain of the 8 better
I want more staves but sometimes we don't get what we want π
it's why I love illisi
got the event reward
funny, I love Deimos more so maybe that's why I like 6 more
i love deimos
II (2) π₯
it's starting to make sense why we love opposite marks

deimos is my favorite melee
Illisi is neat
i like the demios eye poke
i do feel like fgs kinda takes over the illisi niche
and the sweepy of the illisi
it does only to a certain extent
both fgs light combos are so good for crowds
the thing for me about the 6 vs the 8 is i dont feel like push attack into heavy stab is much faster than just doing 2 heavies on the 6
dodges are so much better on both deimos and illisi
Yeah, FGS just replaces Illisi imo
it's not really faster, it's more a feel thing tbh
unless you need dodges for some specific reason
and deimos still knocks crushers on the ass
Deimos does still have a niche
I think I pulled something here
is the stab stronger on the 8?
deimos still retains its single target dominance
Keep
marginally
the 6's stab is still very good and you get a strong heavy 1 before it
i dont think it's stronger by any breakpoint
I havenβt used fgs without the fast attack node et al in that corner. How does it feel in a regular staff build
Really good imo
Fairs fine without the attack speed node
Iβll give it a try
Good enough to take on any staff. Of course, dueling sword is still optimal in a lot of cases 
does fine, still one of the better options for our melee
yeahhhh
i think fgs pairs pretty cleanly with lightning staff
That's what i've been running
works pretty well so far
same
been running this with FGS/bolt pistol and it's been fun
imo the best pairings for it are EK and Voidstrike... replacing the Illisi 
bounce between purloin and warp unbound
I need to get an actual voidstrike staff
I can never remember to use the special on FGS. It's worse than a stim.
Also I wouldn't stop accidentally changing my dpi. I thought FGS has a weird speed buff until bistol started to also have the " speed buff". 
i would cut toughness on warp kill and toughness on peril gen for warp rider
^Still gonna forget to use it?
Oh fuck that's nice.
yes π
now that i know the half charge is decently effective im gonna start getting a lot more use
what blessings do you guys prefer on it? i been using wrath+riposte but i feel like with the cleave talent i might drop wrath for precog
how good is it?
i kept gunning for full charge but actually getting full charge while there's still things to hit with it means good fucking luck not getting flinched out of it when you try to beam
is it good enought o blend horde trash
yes
thats nice
2268 damage on that bulwark π
its the kind of thing ive been thinking about butnot wanting to try because i know for a fact full charge beams are satisfying and so i dont want to NOT do it you know
lol
so far ive gotten off one maxed beam that actually hit things and it was like 5 grunts 
I hope the FGS charge degrade slower, and show it even you are on range weapon like the relic blade does.
I'm fine with the decay rate as it is
I want the decay rate to be gone completely
i also want the decay rate to die
Let me open up with big swing 
the decay mostly annoys me when it brings me just below max threshhold
i would like decay to die, it doesnt need it but
yeeeeee
it would be funnn
i would rather it be faster since you can often just carry a bunch of essence from a previous fight
and it doesn't decay much even when using other weapons in the meanwhile
It is very good when things start to go chaos.
I just want it not to decay when it's at max charge
Or let me charge up to 250% and let the 50% be the buffer.
This, if nothing else it turns a bad situation into a non-situation
oh thats a good thought
I use it often, half charge is still great into hordes.
Half charge seems to kill bruisers around less than 10m
But it has infinite cleave too so it's good
Full charge more consistently deals with ragers etc
yeah don't greed for that full charge unless you just don't benefit from force cleaving at the moment.
Force cleaving the level 1 charge twice is pretty much the same as force cleaving at level 2 once
And also, the thing hit by the sword directly is gonna be obliterated
Full charge has helped me out really often
Full charge is half charge until youre swarmed
I usually only use the full or 0 charge
Because damage falloff
It is annoying that it don't show the charge when I change to range, and pulling it out to find that it got degrade a bit.
0 charge 
Don't need to use it often enough to want to use 1
lmao the psyker wave slash applies bleed when u swap to the bolt pistol liek the zealot dagger
preach
It's a 30m range stagger
psyker bleed spam build incoming
shhhhh
Ezpz dog save
Y'all using your memory. Good job siblings.
Ah
Fatshark gaming
I don't think it staggers bulwarks though 
wait really?
wtf
Also, protip: even at base the ranged warp slice can knock hounds off of allies
yeah its giga gfunny
spam wave slash then swap to bleed pistol
repeat and eveyrthing non-carapace go is sent to the shadow realm
that's nuts
so from what i've seen, both marks are perfectly viable right? it's not firmly 6 or 8 over the other?
enjoy while it lasts siblings
im rolling 6 and the "light/special for hordes, heavy spam for single target" is easy enough to understand
is 8 more complex or nah?
8 is the simple one
oh
Kekw
honestly they're both about equal to me
I was playing bistol too. Now I'm mad about me not using FGS special. 
8 is the easy one, good for hordes, but 6 is probably better as long as you're paying attention
also hi, didn't even realise you were on this discord lmao
Hey gamer
so 6 is worse for me, got it π€‘
yep go try it sibling :)
I am thinking about soulblaze warp slice. I know it won't be super good but the range of the slide with 100% crit seems tasty.
I'm running 6 mainly because it's a bit better at bossing and it's a on a staff build that just really sucks at bossing in general
All you have to do with the 6 is lights, then on the mild diagonal upswing you heavy
If i was running full scriers gunpsyker i might be more inclined to run 8
If you're standing still it's light light light heavy, but stuff like the sprint attack will change it slightly
Both marks must be easy then. Because even I could slap crushers to death with the 6. Just heavy them.
go for giga peril reistance and spam warp slice then swap to bleed bolt pistol, eveyrthing gets bleed stacks, enjoy while it lasts
Specifically for 6, you do a heavy when the diagonal light goes from bottom right to top left
for hordes
You can also get the heavy diagonal earlier from push attack
Double barrel is good now?
Always has been
What's the stats and blessings?
@mossy oyster DB shotgun talk, I summon thee.
yeah
mobility at 60, scatter/manstopper on a scriers build
flak maniac perks
I gotta mess around in the psykhanium, but Iβm still leaning towards the whichever FGS is more brain dead
8 is more braindead
Neither are that complex
we bleeding out of tertium with this one!!!!!
Is the use case hordes? Or elites? Is the range on it any good? Last time I tried double barrel I just shot it into hordes which worked okay, but I donβt think I was using it right
yes vet enjoys manstopper/scattershot also
Ok ty bro
From the vet guide in the vet pins

my medal is sucking rn
but you can use DBarrel to just delete anything in front of you button (thats not monstrosity/carapace)
DBarrel can 1 shot maulers
what do you guys think pairs well with the sword? i dont have much experience with scriers b4 this
DBarrel is good for rager surprises
Any time I see someone whip out a knife I know I'm about to get carried
dump stat on dueling sword?
cleave damage
does barely anything
otherwise mobility if you really care about that 5 damage to the second target
That's not hyperbole btw.
If we're counting high havoc, i'm not even sure you can actually hit a second target with dueling sword, with that hitmass increase

it might literally not do anything
cleave damage has nothing to do with cleaving in the technical sense fyi
any good dueling sword/trauma staff builds
cleave damage modifies unarmoured/infested/flak ADMs
so it's basically the penetration stat but for unarmoured/infested/flak
Isn't flak still bugged.
I think it was before the crafting update, I haven't checked recently.
This was pre new gunners and havoc.

Usually I just know I'm about to see a guy sprint down three rooms into the map, possibly with his friend and I'll get fucking slaughtered in 0 coherency because I can't perfectly dodge 11 maulers and 600 ragers for seven minutes straight.
that's a lotta clips

chat we did it we're 20 mastery
I can open havoc 28 if you want to do
I got demoted from 29 to 28 yesterday night cos some dudes were sus
chat do you guys get this when using greatsword?
You can
I don't personally
not unless I need it for other things like assail/voidstrike
I don't even grab the attack speed node
i do
i hate slow weapons i was gonna grab the attack speed one
It's good if you want Force GS maxxing
and then the cleave one is right there so i thought maybe
But not really needed for Force GS to do its job
oh are you running havoc now?
i could hop on for a couple games before bed
alright getting on
you'll be on later?
pls tell me it's not pox gas again
I think so
no i'm running ek staff
Okay I am on trauma I guess.
still got room for 1?
sorry we just filled up
np
I take warp splitting and attack speed bonus, used with scriers
You use it to force cleave in higher havoc games
this is gonna need a lot of work
Wrath 4 though 
Maga 
heard you can inject disinfectant to cure pox blight
does Perilous Assault increase lmb rapid fire with force staves? does that tech still exist?
I don't think wield speed affects queel cancel animation if that's what you're asking
thats what i am asking haha
that's for assail
there a build just for the greatsword? I dont really feel like using anything else. Just full melee
where can i find these "greatsword builds" looking for inspo
^^^
what's recon
fasty shooty laser
the lasgun that goes really fast
...
ya
that's like the best gun
along side plasma
make sure it's the model 12
with burn on crit you just spray over horde and they die to burn

all depends on what you want to go for, meta is starting to shift toward survivability
mine goes for smite and warp siphon
other builds will go for assail and DD
you'll find a lot of sanctuary dome builds tho across it all
on the FGS itself, dump warp resist
mk VI vs VIII is up to personal taste
the one with the better light atk is the superior sword
it's heavy is garbage, but can push-atk takes care of armored
You mean the horizontals and diagonals?
the better horiz one
Eh?
one of the sword does almost flat sweaps with light
and loops heads off easy
the other one does the weird diagonal sweaps that hit less things
teh flat sweap one have shit heavy atk though, but that's solved by using the push-atk stab, which is fantastic
mk 6 does diagonals
and is superior

mk 6 has access to easy overheads and stabs for maximum elite destruction, hordes are trivial with either mark
so mk 6 is better imo
they have the same light attack if you block cancel
Are the overheads heavies?
the charge attack on the mk6 is objectively better, straight thrusting only
yes
There's a difference for their charge attacks??
not even talking about the overhead light, the first two are already diagonals
Is this their running attack or the special charge?
So it does have some effect lol, still not good
oh no, not the diagonals on the big sword that already eats hordes anyway, oh nooooooooo
disgusting diagonal lovers
Horizontal coper
if it eats hordes on both versions light attacks, the thing that decides it for me is the charge attack
one of them bullies crushers, the other does not
Also I heard Obscurus Fsword has a better horde clear combo now?
they don't both eat hordes, one does it better, some people just settles for the inferior version
apparently, but I haven't touched it since the update so π€·ββοΈ
for the better charge on the other
so for the greatsword it's scriers gaze combo with lasgun or vraks?
They both eat hordes 
cope
you're the one doing that
I haven't touched it since Deimos and Illisi were released haha
by your cope logic my dueling sword also eat hordes
π
Duelling Sword eats everything right now lol
I can see why you think the mk 6 is bad if you think it has horde clear anywhere near Dueling Sword
lucky for reality, it doesn't have horde clear that bad
duelling sword is not the metric by which to judge every other weapon
the only reason I would want to use greatswords is because they eat hordes better than ds4 mmkay?
yes
Also warp slice 
they eat hordes better than ds4
And it kills elites
it kills elites pretty decently
that is all i ask
Warp Slice makes my jeans tighter
Faster than heavysword anyway
Is the wave attack not that great?
it is very good
It's not bad but I don't consider it great
ehhhhhhh
It's only to clear trash right?
yes
Ok
goes through cover too
Oh that's cool
It can eat some elites at max charge with buffs
1 charge for hordes, 2 charge for elites
Or soften and stagger a whole bunch of them
the catch is if you get bonked before you let the anime slice our you lose everything
tbh i feel people forget we have another weapon slot when talking about the FGS
it doesnt have to kill every single elite
no, but hordes are trivial on psyker
I got a big surprise when I found out Ragers have carapace now
the armored ones?
apparently
tbh i want something that will deal with hordes nicely but also has good matchup against tougher targets, which FGS fits the bill for
Their body I think
READ THE PATCH NOTES YOU NON-NERDS
Yep
yes
I rather read the words of wisened experienced players of skill
im not gonna be using it as my main weapon either, im just replacing my shock maul since that thing cant kill mutants worth a shit
Those don't exist
We are all noobs
what is the question
Surprised they didn't touch psyker mastery bug
For surge staff
butterknife and toothpick still at the top of the heap
About Scab Rager armour
whats the question
What bug
They don't fix bugs, just introduce new ones
what staffs are good for Havoc. Surge feels weak
this drives me insane
you talking about the surgy primary quell cancel machine gun no?
