depends if havoc debuffs also decrease regen speed from coherency
if they don’t
then yah
it could be very good
they do additively by... 40 or 50% iirc
oh
at Havoc 40
you still can outstack it though, and with Zealot or Vet and the low toughness cap.... maybe cool?
Talents might be out of the way though 
Not go, stacking raw hp and toughness matters way more
Because going down is death and death is bad
Also everything must be sacrificed at the altar of cooldown reduction
You have 3 sets of substats
Health, toughness, cdr
Purity aura helps a lot but it doesn't cleanse all immediately
Sure but the goal is avoid the truly bad modifiers because you will die 😂
We did it with blight and no gas and it was fine without corruption resist
But the end event we were all standing in a puddle of goop because there was nowhere else to be and in that particular instant I would not have minded corruption resist 😂
Still two med bags and purity aura goes very far

Nein!
I ALWAYS run more cdr. No matter what
Idk how people can survive without it
Lemme rephrase
Idk how anyone that refuses to let go of “w” live that like that
Who doesn’t love more dmg
More dps = more ded
More ded = not always a mission win
😡
It’s too bad there’s not a bonus title for no downs at 40
That's essentially what true survivor is, I haven't heard of any large difference between 35 and 40
I mean fair, I don’t know how it works
I ran Zealot for the first time in havoc. It seems my role is press F, and in between pressing F hit things to get F back sooner
"What is my purpose?"
"You spam book."
"Oh my god."
You did good!
You'd be amazed how many fuck up spamming book
It's pretty easy to do, though
Was a pretty smooth game in general
Press F when no yellow HP, press F and walk at people shooting at you, press F when the crusher crew shows up
Yep that’s basically the job
I bring a bolter to snipe things and throw bullets at the boss
Flamer is also good and popular
I prefer flamer, it's
when stacking with Inferno staff
I might try DS4 instead of relic blade. Not really sure what melee to use. DS4 is more comfortable
DS4 is definitely meta
I was running mk2 heavy las. Not sure if i liked it more than X for havoc
I like thammer for monster murder
Everyone I see at 40 has a ds4
I literally have not played Zealot since before the class got access to DS4
The combo of evasion and hitting power is just unmatched
So I don't have one built
Same 😂
But if you do a lot of meleeker it is basically the same experience but easier and with fewer tools
Zealot is the stabby class
Use your stabby
don't switch to other things if you can help it

I mean, the meta is such that shooting is often more efficient
but like, idk, play Vet at that point? 🤷♂️
That was my answer
@split lance and I were trying out zealot last night. I just ran around confused.
I got all the fancy penances done and then stopped playing it
how?
I have some on the others, but not all of them is what I mean
I’ve done all of psyker and vet, vast majority of zealot and ogryn
I've only done all of psyker
oh
That’s also what I did
Any idea what perks/blessings for Zealot DS4? Uncanny/Riposte and Carapace/Unyielding?
I like the new penances, they do a good job of showing the design logic of the classes
That’s what I did
Sounds right to me
I think I did flak over unyielding tho
Cole runs shred + riposte
I still use Uncanny/Thrust 
BC I don’t like stabbing bosses too much
Literally. I saw elites. I RAN to them
thrust precog on zealot
Thrust is actually really good since a lot of your attacks on DS4 are going to be 'opening moves' you can precharge
mixing that with duelist is giga damage
His builds require a lot of effort to understand, very subtle use of mechanics
I am not nearly so good a build maker 😂
Anytime I saw a boss, I ran at it and got bapped away.

me with thammer 
I’ve gotten used to meleeing bosses other than BON but my preference is always gonna be to shoot it
I'm gonna have to make another DS.
I wish I could shoot the range resistant bosses in Havoc but for some reason they're range resistant

many such cases
I suspect they’re gonna unleash more party finder centric content
So I really wanted the mastery titles for it
cannot escape party finder
The intro to the cathedral mission heavily implies multiple party content
I really like havoc forged and true survivor because you can’t get them with altf4 cheese so I’m not lumped in with the assy majority 😂
When party B and C fail and you can't carry
I still need True Survivor.
That’s why it’d be awesome!
😭
It’s a white knuckle affair holy jeebus
I almost got it on my first game at 35+
One guy played for like 10m with 1 hp
We had one down
I am super hype to just chill in the low teens murdering shit and talking smack 😂
You'll have to hard carry the newbies tho
so they ever going to fix the electro staff mastery
no
The hardest part is genuinely the party finder 😂
And I know you guys know what I mean
i still find it hilarious i got rejected from an [all welcome] party
I don't because all my havoc has been self-hosted 
fucked up how force greatsword is not particularly good for havoc
Does it auto-reject if you fill up?
idk
Agreed
agreed, it should have 100% more speed 
Yeah. It's rough.
i just want ranged units to not be absurdly overtuned
i think it's also stupid how you can get "we accepted your signup!!" popups mid-mission and they just go in the foreground
like thanks
I feel like the low 20s is the right level of ranged lethality
i have heretics to kill
They’re extremely dangerous and you have to respect them
But not so dangerous that the entire meta revolves around them
i have not gone beyond low 20s
only thing making the gamemode difficult tho
Yeah shotgunners are making me shit my pants in terror 😂
i want Not All Defensive Ults to be viable too
i feel like its gonna kill the gamemode idk
I think the gamemode just needs to enable other hyper-specific setups.
It already tries with the ranged resist.
It fails, but it tries.
I think if they keep shaking things up with new modifiers people will keep coming back
New Modifier: 100% peril all the time
But like there’s no way I’m going into high 30s again except to help someone
Is just not fun
Update: Fatshark gives premium currency but only if you're at Havoc 40

Dying to a single volley from a single shooter isn't fun? Say it isn't so
the nefarious singular scab shooter
help!!! help me!!!!!!!!
"Will someone please help me up?!?!"
"Not one bloody word, you hear?"
"No, Beloved, I don't think anyone's coming."
"If you let me die, I'll haunt you forever!"
That’d get me in there once a week maybe
I am extremely cheap 😂
Do you get demoted if you fail low havoc enough times even if you're in high havoc?

sucks if your computer just crashes
How to make my melee psyker tankier i seem to be unable to survive most things and the sole reasons i made psycher was melee
Learn to block, move, position and dodge such that you don’t take damage
git gud
Thats not making me tankier tuo
Psyker is about preventing damage, not absorbing it
because meleeker will never be tanky 
It in fact makes you by far the most tanks
Gotta move like the prince with a thousand enemies
Its not avoiding damage and tanking damage is different although I thank you for the tip none the less
Psyker has unmatched ways to actively manage attacks. Kinetic Deflection, Empathic Evasion, Anticipation, high toughness regen
And then me tanking the entire Moebian 6ths gunners by smacking things 
But if you actually take damage a lot, you're going to have a bad time
I have no clue what any of those are
Basically you want to crit a lot to trigger empathic evasion so bullets can’t hit you
That explains
And you want to use kinetic deflection so that melee hits you block can’t stop you
And instead feed your damage
I think they are, but we all have to "get gud". It's not me. I'm not gud.
Better stam gen too.
yea you start regaining stamina so fast
Plus psyker is used to being "squishier". Not as squishy as havoc ofc lol.
I bet some mad lad will solo it with nothing but a rusty knife
Thats the block yes?
Yeah, I tried zealot (non-havoc) and felt so winded the entire time.
Also we’re just straight cooler, better looking and smarter than the blunts 
Weave in assails almost constantly to get toughness on warp kill
Push the limits. Ride the lightening. Make bad decisions and win anyway. Zealot has always afforded the chance to hit different. In this video I address a common concern I have started to hear from players about the punishing 'requirements' havoc has demanded of players. While this may be partially true, and certainly there are more and less eff...
You want to run stamina stuff on non-psyker, generally.
Now that’s some fuckin skill
Tbf melee Psyker is a bit harder to play well than staffker
at least imo, the stamina substats on curios help a lot
This helps a ton for helping managing toughness between charging between groups of enemies
I use smite for the heby buff
Quietude is your true meleeker toughness source tho
Don’t do this
Mettle 

Yeah. I had some, but I might put a stam curio on. I just never pay attention to stam management.
The peril -> crack -> quietude pipeline for toughness is next level
Quietude is a good backup though
Esp when you have the quell blessing on weapon
Why?
Your toughness gen massively outmatches zealots when cleaving hordes if you want it to
Yeh, Psyker builds real bad habits for stamina management
Me when I forget I can't block everything forever 
You’re better off straight up just meleeing them than trying to dance between smite and heavies. Higher dps.
what do you mean i cant just spam push and block dodge my way through an entire horde?
I really only use smite for the charged strike seemed to be the only melee related one
This sounds like cope but I watched this video and it looks like these guys just got lucky with shooter spawns. Not once did I see gunners or reapers spawn in an awkward far off position that couldn’t be immediately reached
that talent gives like 50 dmg?
If you’re running fgs best off going full right (taking assail)
They probably had to do a bunch of runs to get that win but it’s still mega impressive
I agree, but I have heard people say the opposite. I think those people just haven't gotten used to just don't jive with the resource management.
FGS really shines with a full right build
THIS
Staffkers that are transitioning 
I dont know its stats i only made a psyker foe the fgs
Mk8 fgs is the most fun I’ve had with a melee weapon ngl
I did 1mil damage with 900k overkill damage with right side FGS
It does basically everything I want
Same. It’s so addictive
Should I go toughness or wounds?
The mk6 is a lot better in some scenarios but the mk8 with correct combo usage is just so nice
For curios
Wounds is always the wrong call
You want to learn to not need them
Yeah it’s setting yourself up for failure
also sometimes you just die without the chance of being saved, so that extra wound means nothin
Because in that slot you could be taking a defensive curio
And it makes green stimms way worse
also kinda makes corruption worse in havoc
saw a corruption heal zealot with 5 wounds
couldn't heal his own corruption cause the corruption went past the wounds
Speaking of. What are u guys doing for havoc curios
I’m going 3 corruption resist
2 tough 1 hp
Was thinking of 3 hp
Besides toughness whats a good blessing? Deflector doesnt seem to be working much =3=
Corruption pools and gas are almost unavoidable for me
And how does thr force block work?
HP until above 200, rest into toughness
The only thing I'm confident in is CDR. I've also stacked corruption resist and idk about gunner resist ( I have it).
Why 200?
burster breakpoint
And sniper
For non-havoc play yes.
I feel like hp is even more important in havoc
for havoc i just give up on worrying about sniper breakpoint
the bubble or chorus zealot will save me
IDK how that transfers over to high havoc with the extra corruption and things just shredding you.
True
if a sniper shoots me i'll just accept my death
for havoc i still just go with a mix of both toughness and hp
remember to take grim res to havoc
I’m prob going to just stick with my normal curio setup
you could make the argument that hp curios are relatively more valuable in havoc because the havoc penalty multiplies with toughness curios, but is only additive with hp curios
but playing on extremely low toughness is also unplayable imo
so i still mix both anyways
Everything should go into hp, toughness and cooldown reduction. Resist won’t make a difference because 20% less fucked is still fucked
Corruption shouldn’t be an issue because you should have a beacon of purity zealot
I take corrupt resist still
Unless you've been collecting curios for awhile, it's a big ask to have a whole separate set for havoc.
Some people who've played for a long time still haven't been able to get max curios.
Even with beacon it still eats your hp
And there's those fights
That you're stuck in goop
The thing is though the corruption still takes away that hp
And there's not much you can do abt it
Thats why I have it
Also reduce poxburster dmg which is nice
Quite significantly
IDK why we still have to play mega rng for curios.
Yeah my h40 true survivor run the group got stuck in a mega goop pile at the escape door from the smelter waiting for it to open 😂
I think they forgot
Yea it happens on smelter a lot
Or just don’t care lol
gotta keep the gambling addicts fed
They are particularly dangerous so I don't mind corruption resistance to prepare for it
I think that shooters delete so fast toughness is almost worthless. Rely on bubble or yellow
Cdr/resist/stamina regen on most of mine
I find that I’m more concerned about the not dying instantly than I am the inevitable slow death of goop
Best place for smelter is the upper area to the right of the door btw. Super easy to defend. No worry about shooters
The difference between my havoc curio set and normal set is i just replace the sniper res for 1 corruption res
Most of my groups usually hole up inside that room to the right
But that sounds better if ppl can make it up the ladder
Issue is you then have to run a shooter gauntlet to escape while if you’re by the door you’re smack dab in a bubble and ready to leave
Just chorus and push
True, but I'll find my own way to burn through ordos endlessly. I got 2 psykers who need the lowest possible WR on force weapons. 
Oh my god you know what tho the stress of it is unreal lol
Like objectively you’re right but the idea we might get domed on the way out the door was too much 😂
I think it's more likely you get domed before that
And yeah I agree that gunner resist is probably not meaningful
I would run it if it worked on trash mob shooters
All you have to do is dome down and bottom front door when it opens and everyone ults to the end 🤷♂️ Had no problem at the end of smelter
But actual elites swiss cheese you so fucking fast that the solution is just not to be shot at
I still run a couple gunner res to give me a bit of time to react
It has saved me a couple times and it's not like much else matters
Do ppl ever struggle up the ladder
Thats the only eh sounding part
Ladders are so shit
ladder jumpscare
i hate ladders
gonna start pinging enemy spotted on ladders
We always end up there from the last valve you turn. Either than or all press the button and travel there together
We don’t use the ladder
I vet on metalfab always and solo the switches lol
Me with my 3 of each top tier curio
So my team usually is just where the last corruption was

Before I meet up with them and we move to that little room I mentioned
i'm too poor for this
my ogryn still doesn't have perfect curios

My pile of +3 stam curios. I see one I buy one.

Me for sure 😂
YES. The real final boss.
Ladders will fecking snatch you if you wonder by them too.
I stg enemies get increased range hitting u on a ladder
Also the top stair or top of a ramp not letting you walk over them.
I recently learned that you can revive while on a ladder
wtf
inch res ting
I will never go down a ladder, jump errytiem
Also I rebound jump to B so that spacebar would stop being jump and dodge
Best decision I ever made, I became 50% less killed by random jumps 😂
Yeah! Seperate jump and dodge buttons are great,
yeah i actually changed like a month ago and i kept forgetting how to jump too
2 years of muscle memory to forget
Idk how I got true survivor honestly, I am like the least survivable person ever 😂
I had separate buttons in VT2 so I separated mine right away in this one.
Not having separate dodge and jump when starting the game. 
Feel that to my core. Hesitant to join Havoc because of it
Well here I am to assure you that incompetence and a total lack of skill is no barrier to making it to the top!
I have a chance.
If anyone here ever had any doubt that being tall is optimal for melee:
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/487110864504094730/1315842472437481582/tall_melee_propaganda.mp4?ex=6758e14c&is=67578fcc&hm=a2632719aaf949c507974a0327b9081eb3fee442761224c8a382a085087a206a&
That is an unpossible level of coordination for me so I will not worry 
ok tbf i would never attempt to jump shot in an actual game
but sometimes i just happen to stand on higher ground and get the shot without jumping anyways
You can hit that with mk3 knife PA
New penance idea
Kill 100 bulwarks from the front while jumping
minimum height ankle biters shall suffer
At least height can be changed now.
My character is med height and I was able to hit a bulkwark through the top of the shield with a deimos, but I have not been able to replicate it.
DS special is much easier to do.
Force push into stab 
I just murdered my auric curios

Still do fine on auric
It's just auric. 
hi tren
wanna carry my havoc?
need to do 33
wait i beat 33 last week, but now i gotta do 33 again?
Just did a Havoc 40 pox mission. Holy moly, that was brutal
How are you guys getting past 17 it’s impossible for me 😂
Choosing to win instead of lose
I understand it now
I can’t get on rn
There’s actually a cheese strat to always win. Reduce enemy hp to 0 while keeping yours above 0
Maybe in a bit
Beautifully said
Wonderfully spoken
In truth, yeah Havoc is brutal
Went back to an Auric Mael and was bored earlier
Sending texts in the middle of the match
Havoc has ruined it for me
Speaking of which, can’t sleep and tempted to get out of bed to get True Survivor
Got myself at 35 to host 3 attempts at least
🤷♂️ Hard to tell since you're on normal dam
I think it's probably fine
I mean I have more experience with Auric so I know those numbers better
oh okay
first time using trauma staff
Most of Psyker actually gets easier with enemies density imo
also mods make this game so much better
Sometimes Malice trips me up cause I can’t keep stacks of various abilities going
But I’m loving high Havoc and can clear Auric damnations with my eyes closed at this point

It’s weird how it kinda works like that with Psyker
I don't do much Auric bc I feel I suck. I always feel I'm behind and my team is pushed way up
God I fucking love Kung Fury
mfw i play auric damnation and carry my team and play malice with my friend who just got the game and play like i also just got the game
One of the best movies ever made
That’s the true Psyker experience
Yes 
in dam I can clutch or fix a situation 50% of the time
We need that horde density
Funny. In Havoc, I feel like I am the one pushing up b/c I have bubble
Follow me, children. Into the safety of the bubble
@split lance @clear heath If ur both playing in a little while, I'm down.
is bubble good in Auric like havoc?
I mean it’s always amazing
me too 
I got you
It does actually drop off on standard though
i think bubble is the safe pick
you'll always get value out of it
but i think support picks are almost always outclassed by everything else in the default gamemodes as long as you're a decent player, because killing is usually preferable
Cause you are pushing enemies more than they push you
So a static bubble loses value there
So some people get a poor impression from it in Malice, Heresy and even Damnation Standard
not taking things like smite or bubble are good ways to force you to learn to deal with threats without a safety button
me watching my teammates use shriek and scrier's as safety buttons
i use shriek on some builds literally only for creeping flames
but im a scriers enjoyer at heart
The other 10% is gasoline for blowing ourselves up
scriers force gs my beloved
any good videos or anything explaining how to use scriers gaze correctly?
literally just pop it into hordes and elites
scriers cooldown is 25 seconds, lingers for 10, so really its cooldown is 15 seconds. scrier should be spammed off cd like a true warp fiend
i enjoy using it with things that dont generate peril
like the force greatswords and guns
It’s a tiny cooldown so abuse tf out of it
^
but scriers is usually always back up by the time the lingering bit ends
with psykinetics aura (taken on all my builds) you have it all the time
But other than Warp Rupture we’re pretty spoiled for good choices
so pop it when you have no peril and go ham on elites mon and hordes
can you pop yourself in the lingering stage of it
basically
with the new nodes you can literally get scriers to 30 every time without fail
it lasts so long
Even then, especially on lower difficulties
I see ppl use guns with it but can you use a staff?
this lovely little thing
Don’t be scared to use it at 80% peril and get 10 damage/finesse stacks for a bit
Better than 0
voidstrike staff has really good synergy with scriers
Electrostaff too
And Soulblaze Voidblast
Only really not that useful on Inferno imo
who has a good build for it
my friend uses scriers on blazing trauma for crits but ive never really used trauma due to hadron cucking me so i wouldnt know
@nocturne dust give him the unhinged
would like to try with electro staff
Dead has a Voidstrike build for it that slaps
I would advise that a little more, I’m not at my PC to share my Electrostaff one
all good. very appreciative for the information yall give me.
@radiant ice oh yeah build works almost won this one
Is that my support lightning one?
that's the flamer one you gave
Ehhh oh!
when I used scriers the few times I did I kept killing myself
I actually formatted it into a Lantern post
so close to winning that level 39
This one?
I have so many lightning staff builds, and a handful of inferno ones
But that’s my main Havoc inferno so I assume that xD
Doesn’t really matter til the 20s
All 4 staves wreck in Havoc
If you’re an ogryn enjoyer expect to have some trouble finding parties tho
sadge
my least played class but always meant to get around to him
Who is actually an ogryn enjoyer
They have some devotees
I’ve had some outstanding big men in my Havoc games
My ogryn is level 4
Yeah the good ogryns are real good because that is all the play and they play it a lot 😂
You can also just spam balls all day, shards unneeded 
Yeah but each shard has about 10 cleave with that build
100 shard kills in 7 seconds is sexy
@split lance @nocturne dust wanna play havoc?
oh right warp unbound
thats new innit?
can that be played with electric staff?
It can, with some tweaks
ye. need a few minutes. like 5
I dont have a void strike lvled yet
k
Hold on lemme boot lantern
Dang, something unexpected came up
I'll be a while longer. Like half an hour longer. Play some without me 
alright
This is a rough idea of how it looks tweaked for electrostaff
I prefer Reality Anchor for electrostaff, even though it's a little unpopular. Purely cause that thing can be a grenade on a stick
I wouldn't recommend it on any staff except Voidstrike
Other staves really, really like left side. EK most of all.
I mean, yeah, you can run it with the strangeness but don't expect it to perform very well
Honestly that build with Warp Nexus and Warp Flurry does me really well
Wouldn't take it to Havoc 20+, but anything below that, Auric or Standard, it's a blast
@nocturne dust @strong gulch Games in 15?
@clear heath Ready. VC or no?
sure. Strike team 1
That's fine, it's a tren 15 minutes.
so 30 is probably closer
atlas join us
I am debating hosting my 35 for True Survivor runs
but it means getting out of bed XD
Screw it, not sure how it will go considering it's 2am in my region
But I want that title XD
also doesn't cooldown reducing stuff like concentration stim and cdr on specialist/elite kill work while it's active too
cause I recall it being up instantly again after using a concentration stim during it
imagine if we had a talent that turned damage into peril like in vermintide 2 :v
That’s base unchained
im still dreaming for the day we get a peril movespeed talent
+100% at max peril because lol why not
im on 34 
I want this frame so badly
@clear heath
hi
@strong gulch
its just me now
@lethal lagoon went to bed like a
idk
a sleepy boy


would anyone like a lonely tren in there team
i can provide many assists to a penance such as this!!!
You'll get it in due time sibling
Puppet Master > Solidity for havoc, change my mind?
@polar drift i am so ass at surviving with psyker, whats your advice for dealing with ranged dmg
No you have reduce vent already and team is always together
Using cover, Deflector blessing on Force swords, Dodging, Sprint while sliding
trauma staff + combat blade = gud?
In due time you'll become good enough at dodging most shooters outside the Havoc gamemode
If you single tick quell solidity has no impact. If team is slightly spread then making sure they're still getting max CDR for yellow toughness is quite beneficial.
If you have the precision to quell only 1 tick every single time you're a much better player than me 
Not that I can manage my peril doing only 1 tick anyway.
The timing isn't too hard. It also means the quell speed penalty has no effect either.
what blessings for inferno?
did you mean to at that guy or me

lmaooo bro my bad i meant you homie
ah so what i do is
i kill them before they can kill me
if that doesnt work
i die
im not even joking
I bow before superior knowledge and power 
fortnite build
gimmie dat sweet sweet advice
No I am bad meowbop is better
are u on
What do you want to know from thy humble servant?
wanna do some aurics
yall, combat blade + trauma = good combo? to run away in case shit goes sideways? or nah
gs+trauma feels kinda clunky idk
(not melee psyker)
(trauma focus)
im on with my homie running damnations rn, do you want an inv after this round? 👀
yes
Ye sure man
Usually ds4 or knife is gud with trauma. Or deimos too
yup
Yeah it still has really good mobility.
ty
I prefer damage
Just heavy slide around
@split lance sending inv 1 sec
wait im not even on
gimme 2 sec lol
ok im on
@plucky flax what's your havoc purga build?
just got up to level 30 on my psyker pog
Not sure if it helps, but until they answer I use this 😛 https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9dafe0ee-d114-497d-a6df-a7af17352e84/flames-of-havoc
just watching his messy h40 and trying to work out if he has ER. Remembered he showed build at start of vid though so question answered
I do yeah to continuous flaming since things are so tanky in havoc
That havoc was cursed cos the vet doesn't like pressing f to aoe stagger for whatever reason.
So many times he has it up but don't use it.
why does everyone think you need a bubble in havoc 30+
not everyone
as far as i can tell it's because regular shooters become much more dangerous when the players are nerfed vs when the enemies are buffed
and bubble turns them off
- the toughness is nice
Not really sure what kind of response you expected to that question. The obvious answer seems very obvious.
IMO you over prioritize damage, kinetic deflection could save your bacon
@strong gulch man that game was so close
buddy. i'm autistic and i even knew "everyone" wasn't to be interpreted literally
I generally am just not a KD user or fan
my melee psyker popping off though
😱
It’s so good tho
It’s like a cheat code to never giving a shit about stam
I mention that in the description 😛
A small variant to take it if you want it, just not a fan XD
are you familiar with expressions of language? or is english not your first language
Just had a quick game with a fellow psyker who knew his business and two vets who very much did not in an h17 😂 my shoulders be achin
600k melee psyker 
it was in havoc 33
Oh I know the feeling, ran a couple low ranks for some assists and it's so chill
But the people are so bad
Very nice
Havoc 33 is good
I'd say 35-40 feels the same.
30-34 big jump from 29 cos of emperor light 2
JSON if you manage to true survivor with a meleeker you are god of psyker melee
Yeah i'm wondering how much 35 will impact melee psyker
cause there's that hitmass increase
But it's not much difficult between any 30s
It’s not good!
35 theoretically fucks melee harder
A lot is the answer -someone who tried it
It's just the upper half has 100k monster hp
35 is just "No melee" for us
I nearly outdamage a trauma psyker on my choir boi zealot yesterday
Man needed to blast more.
ayo so whats the best dps combo for trauma anyway
right click -> left click left click -> right click -> left click left click?
Nexus blaze trauma crit chance flak
nono
Scriers Gaze and the Special Attack
i mean the actual combo
Oh yeah just do full charge
I guess I'm just more autistic than you. Bubble is popular because many players are struggling. Havoc punishes bad positioning / move tech, and bubble is a crutch to fix that for the whole team.
Cast big boom all over the place
cheers bruv
Rain down blue fire bombs upon the heretics
got this cool shotgunner sweep too
I find once you get to Havoc 30, the Inferno Staff is hard to put down
Even though I prefer EK
Half charge if you need to stagger crushers or save yourself in melee
Only makes sense to run it if another is already running Inferno
Full charge is for big domage
Why when trauma is better
havoc 30s is where i fell back in love with surge
It's Voidblast these days, get with the times old man 
Name causes me trauma
XD
It really shines as the backup to an Inferno Psyker
But as the sole Psyker, AoE is needed imo
Cause for some reason nobody runs AoE in EU pubs
as the main damage 
Eh, EK doesn't do great 
also average fgs gameplay
EK if anything just steals warpfire
Anyone got any ideas for a good voidstrike build with venting shriek? after it reset all my builds I wanna remake mine
True Survivor is hard.
all my shitty dodges disappearing instantly
But is it useful dmg? 
I mean, I am at 35 wink wink nudge nudge
I did rending trauma as a backup to purg and ended up doing more damage than the purg guy somehow...
lmao
is killing elites considered helpful?
Weren't you going to bed?
I mean i'm still using ek and it's still working so far
the build isn't focused on ek though
I got up, and I'm just away to go back XD
it's just a gapcloser while i melee
Insomnia ftw
not when you do it one at a time on Havoc. I mean it helps, but the reason EK gets so high is because it always outputs, rather than trauma or inferno which don't do nearly as well during quiet moments
Well, if you're running again, you can invite me. After I get a bite to eat.
(Not self diagnosed, have special pills that every few months I have to take a little more)
Because its flavour of the month build. For whatever reason people think burga is better than trauma in high havoc and psykers zealots are most popular classes and builds.
Nah, I wasn't going to question you.
trauma always does a lot
wym
But the psykers aren't actually psykers and are clueless how to play
Nah gonna try for more sleep, will drop you a message tomorrow though
Compare it to EK tho
sorry for being toxic :p
I was playing awful cause my tiredness in my last game
Trauma takes a lot longer to kill a bunch of scattered shooters than zap zap staff
Trauma peril a lot tougher to manage than burgeratus tho
I've been jumping between purg and trauma. I'm not sure which I prefer tbh.
Tru but I find I am able to carry so much harder.
burger
at least it keeps up blaze away stacks
Especially if I'm the only psyker.
And give like 4 stacks to new enemies
Well in fairness you are really really good at the game 😂
They're just relying on their siblings 🙏
Give blaze cc and damage. Veri based blaze trauma
Rending is nice too tho because of tanky guys
Actually not a useless set up for this mode.
i searched it but couldnt find it, what are folks liking with the 2h force sword paired with wrath?
blessing wise
I'd go with shred and call it a day for some crit 
maybe min charge is superior?
riposte or shred usually
A lot of good options tho
I go shred in auric, deflector in havoc
Yeah it was.
Do I need wrath on the force greatsword if I have warp splitting?
I've been using riposte because i run out of bubble like a maniac often enough to dodge stuff
yeah been using Shred just fine
No since the direct damage does a lot and yes you might be keeping blaze away stacks up but you're not applying enough soulblaze anyway since the channel time for minimum charge is so short.
shred and riposte are equal enough imo
Might as well left click it's better and do stagger more.
no
did you see this shotgun sweep potato?
@split lance @nocturne dust @clear heath If y'all want to play in a bit, let me know
I play deflector shred personally in havoc 20s.
Blaze Away is nice and all but min charges spend so much time in animation
I'm down
How different is your blaze trauma build from your purg build (that I stole and have been using)?
I'm down to play too
It's different you can have a look at the start of the trauma vid.
No battle med for example
hows this build look?
oh this is identical to what I already have
Imo if you're the only psyker in the squad voidblast is the most effective. It offers great spread damage if played as the blaze variant and unparalleled CC.
Patch 1.6.1
Archivum Sycorax · Espionage · Damnation · The Blight Spreads · The Emperor's Fading Light (2) · Moebian 21st
Loadout: Deimos Blaze Force Sword / Voidblast (Trauma) Force Staff...
I like going mk8 with tranq and riposte so that I can go apeshit on cutting things. You get used to needing the push attack poke to nuke ragers and heavier stuff + the push before makes you safer by ass planting the baddies. And the cleaving is pretty nice
Based you are veri pro
and mutant = heretic
how so, what would you change?
and heretic = execute on sight
Riposte for more crit because crit is so good with meleeker
so, first off, what are you trying to run?
the weapon types posted above
You're trying to do a shriekstrike or just voidstrike in general?
if I want my CB to be an "oh god oh fuck i need to run or stab a crusher in its head" weapon, MK 3 is better right? or mk6?
mk3?
Voidstrike in general but I want to spam it as often as possible so shriek is there as a backup if I need to use more peril in a pinch
@plucky flax @nocturne dust What would convince you that you're wrong?
wrong about what?
wdym

hold block + left click?
Cold, hard numbers
The push stab
ah
Here, this is an unhinged build for spamming voidstrike everywhere
It's extremely frail but extremely juicy
@clear heath @nocturne dust I think @split lance is in a game right now. We'll see if he responds. 
im down after this one
🎉
Does h40 scoreboard count?
Not those numbers
What blessings
surge + warp nexus
what are you guys even arguing about?
I also run crit chance and maniac for perks
Purgatus min charge spam
btw can you not get weakspot hits anymore with voidstrike? it doesnt seem to be doing any extra damage in psykhanium?
that min charge purga is superior
I actually don't think there's a meaningful difference
I meant numbers like actual calculations, as in the output of damage from Purg via min charge spamming vs max charge
you can
it does more damage
try aiming a bit above their head
for headshots? i know it can affect crusher one shot
no for the purgatus thing they're talking about
It is
yeah i meant the charge thing
Soulblaze stacks far quicker and you get far more direct damage by max charging
because the animation time for min charging is a lot
oh yeah max charging is much more effective
Wondering whether brittleness is better instead of blazing for havoc (if teammates are pulling big dmg alrdy)
yah it’s a good support option
how do you play this build? any particular way?
never take off blaze away
think he’s talking about trauma staff
blazing spirit and rending shockwave
ah
Use voidstrike on everything unless you can't see/enemies are scattered, in which case you switch to assail
still does decent enough damage
plus you’ve got surge
most of the time
Also, it takes some learning. Optimal play will require you know how much charge you need for a target, so you can half-ish charge on a lot of enemies and still one-shot them (and it gets more complex with DD and scrier's)
You don't have to get super involved with DD and Scrier's though
it gets tuah point where u just kinda feel out the enemies BPs
you should just know the BPs for when they're down and when they're full-ish
you’ve just gotta watch the enemies like a hawk
the wolf howls, the lion roars
and the hawk..
Don't sell me bitcoin
the hawk tuahs

anyone who has done 30+ havok willing to run a 37
do I fully charge?
sure
Sometimes
against enemies like ogryns, denser packs of enemies
Full charge on thicc groups and thicc bois
what does minimum charge mean? like the gage on the staff by holding right click?

also, wont I reach max peril super fast in scriers
that’s why you’ve got warp unbound
Right click then left click instantly
That's what Empyric Resolve is trying to help with, and what you have Warp Unbound for
How much otherwise?
gunners i think you can get away with like half on a headshot crit
should I stop to quell midway through scriers or just keep blasting?
that's what you should be doing?
It is super dependent and you kinda just have to feel it out and get used to it. Generally, you can half-charge or less on most weaker enemies/specials.
no
Depends. If enemies are super close and trying to murder you, just blast. The quelling is to stack more damage from Scrier's, but that won't do a thing if you're dead.
okay so hold right click for a full charge
I don't think so. Full or half charge give much more damage.
so another dumb question. do you ever just left click spam on packs of enemies? or just like if they are in your face
alright, now I gotta make my all soulblaze source inferno staff build
what would you recommend with that
I left click spam to make gunners stop shooting and to nail a special
blaze staff and deimos force sword
Oh also, do note that warp unbound can 'kill' you for a very short period between when Scrier's ends and warp unbound begins if you happen to generate peril during that moment
left click spam is mainly for singular enemies that you don’t want to bother charging up for, or staggering/suppressing a specific enemy quickly
is that still a thing
oh my god
lmfao
It’s honestly wild how good left click is at suppressing
okay I feel I'm doing it right
I have a guide for that https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9d5f5cb5-afee-4f51-9393-b8429e8c6765/the-burning-man-inferno-guide
does it actually kill you?
i haven’t noticed that with my SG usage
yes
(they didnt put it in the hotfix notes either for this recent hotfix)
I havent periled with WU this patch
👍
Yes 
But I’ve also been pure melee
I LOVE FIRE!!! PROMETHEUS SUFFERED FOR YOU TO USE IT!!!
But where is le bubble elmo
Much better
blessings for inferno?
just my damage always seems low on purga. Just did my 2nd every Auric and we passed but felt I didn't do the damage you should be doing.
The guide should have that 
but Blaze Away and Warp Nexus
I am fond of voidstrike
@strong gulch
me too
hi
Noice
This might sound silly, but I am kinda pleased that I did another havoc 40 mission. Proves the first wasn't a fluke
btw why not souldrinker, that sounds good for a soulblaze build
I'm fine if I get carried 
It's on the wrong side of the tree and eats 3 points just to get it
and even if it wasn't, it's only 5% crit and a smidgen of toughness
@nocturne dust Json is in another strike team. 69 and 40 are taken.
because of the way it works
if I have to choose do I get warp expidenture or mettle?
100 isn't 👀
this is why i need to be mod
in 100
Remember that guy who said to move last night? lmao
I do okay. Not spectacular, couldn't carry solo, but I don't drag my team down or need to be carried
Same.
oh it doesnt stack
What perks should I run on my force sword to compliment
Holy barnacle, I just heard two guardsmen speaking by Dukane and one went "Not me though. Charmed life. The Emperor loves me." and the other replied "Glad somebody does." 💀
@split lance We're in vc 100. Also we need a 4th.
gimme 5
Blazing spirit for MORE FIRE?
You running Deimos? Uncanny and [preference]. I would run slaughterer.
bloodthirsty sounds kinda cool
