imma watch

lets see how he does
fucked up how fgs is so good that i am unironically starting to play bubble now
The fact that cdr is grabbed and not souldrinker to complete the symmetry bothers me more than anything here
Thanks for you I try. 
or the node below cdr
fgs so peak psyker player count seems like it doubled
I mean, you get games with 3 psykers when you just wanted to slack with your vet.
And yes, there's always an FGS user.
i already had the problem of forgetting i had other weps with deimos
with fgs that got worse
I'm not home. D:
I'm out in a forest. Discord is barely loading.
Yeah that's a bad thing, man. Psyker is hard and the vast majority of people playing it are real, real bad, lol
more enemies for me
That is a silver lining, I guess

Playing with bad people makes you better
i do think melee psyker is genuinely decent now
It always has been
I mean, watching them pop themselves is well, as you can expect.
idk the moment i got fgs it felt sooo much better

That is the 5. More so if you dump mobility.
ds5 is scary
Just fling yourself off as fast as a knoife.
i dont think i've seen any ds5 gamers in game yet
I like it with vet
Fellow ds2 enjoyer
And zealot
Yes, but the dodge range is... WELL.
Coal is a big fan of ds5
Self YEET.
I found the overhead heavies were pretty awkward
Ij buffs dodges to a stupid degree so zealot just flys around
Sus. Squints.
I put agile on it to make it more funny
Ds5 has no poke + overhead heavies
It’s true
I would assume. I just barely use that keystone.
I'm assuming it's the right side one?
video games
Going for all the class penances is a great way to learn all the things they can do
Gives you a solid mental model for how other people will play
But stealth.
Yeah
throw smoke nades at ranged enemies 🔥
Stealth is honestly very valuable for solving some gunner situations when you don’t play like a total degenerate
I kinda refused to touch stealth because I hated being aggrodumped.
Yeah see that’s dumb play
I don’t use stealth because if I get to comfortable with it I play bad
But using the vet long stealth to do objectives or the short damage boost zealot stealth to reposition and smash a boss weak point works pretty good
I rather scream and panic to heck and run around going ahhhhhhh <Insert big thing horde here>
It genuinely works pretty solid if you smoke team, all the ranged mobs run right over because they can’t LOS
But like in the hands of an average mook I’d prefer the straightforward damage options that they can’t fuck up
For which weapon 
I love soyker
i have 2 staffs levelled (voidstrike, electro and inferno) and dualling blade and force blade as well as shock maul levelled
inerfno is still levlling (currently at 16 of 20)

Well that build I linked has inferno and a dueling sword
It’s a havoc ready build
you linked me a site for building your own
Oops one moment
appreciate the link tho 😉
First works with inferno and EK, second for voidstrike 
im curious what build wud be good, so fgar i made a support class psyker( smite and telekine bubble shields that can be on very quick recharge
Or something like those at least
INF shout is the same with 3 psykers.
ppl dpnt get the concept of what it offers tho
Near perma damage buff.
@plucky flax are you available for HM now? 
tbf ventign shriek is 1 i tried but didnt get to grips with
Yes actually since it's fast.
Let me call upon my people.
@summer prairie

@verbal thistle
Okay we wait.
Smite, Bubble, FGS, and Voidstrike with DD is peak imo. Capable of engaging all enemy types at all ranges to good effect. Great team support, great damage, great crowd control. Can even be reasonably tanky with 200 toughness and buttloads of toughness regen.
I have a 4th if need be, she loves the twins
Okay nice we don't want syllogism anyway.
Okay, I start the game. What do I need to do? 
Play some class you want and uh... don't stand in the green smoke.
Clear some mines if you can.
you guys still need someone
You've at least played it right? Like you know the mechanics of the fight?
i just finished throwing a game
There are mines?
tbh brain rupture(unless u can get its cast time down) in mostly all grouops they slaughter the elite i try and BR
Fart mines that do crazy corruption damage.
I played it like twice I think
You wanna just runthrough them with a fast weapon or in and back out.
Hard mode just has to many to avoid them.
I think ainz is bringing +1
You can play instead of me though.

and. . .is it just me or do mutants go for psykers ALOT? I mean i get hammered ALOT !!! i try dodging, they still get me
So I don't need to log.
no. Give me a short guide 
Nah not really I can watch ainz's stream and cheers.
Is just you. Reminds me of when I played L4D2. Was the charger magnet.
"yo agent is playing, can i join"
Agent: 'sure i'll leave'

poor clad
So you have to take down both shields to damage the bosses but you already know that.
go play
And uh don't stand in green stinky.
Ah yeah that part I did know
and yet , soooo many dont know that LoL
Also, the light will switch mid darkness and stinky.
You can play mane I am chilling anyway.
Be prepared to nyoom to the next light spot.
ditto as to what i just said hehe
Only waas going to play because my boi pinged me.
i feel like ur boi got cheated
tree room AHEAD
I pinged Chaos because we talked about it, if he wants to chill and we have a group anyway that's fine too 
is all that stam regen for the duelling sword ?

we need at least one competent person for twins
No I wasn't planning to play anyway.
ainz should be enough
I mean, it can't be THAT hard, right? I goofed so hard and we still won, basically first try.
dw clad twins got nerfed hard
And big clad on oggy.
ye i know
You can even rescue now.
Are you saying I'm not competent? After all the auric runs we did together 
Sutvo you can literally just die and let them 3 man.
ill just press F and clear a path to the light
I assume broken doors and such.
Sounds good

😨
Fair enough 
any comptent psykers in the chat
no
not me :
Also, Chaos totally carried us that run. TOTALLY.
No psyker is ever gud.
i just talk big in disc 
we do holy work (but remain a liability)
nut and i both died together last time we played 
same for stu
i am aware of the effect i have on people 😎
I'm incompetent at every class.
aw come on, give yourself some credit
I don't know, I think we just die because we fuck around too much sometimes and then when we try to save it it's too late 
yeah
I'm blunt and serious.
ever duo we end up ends with me dying because i push too fast 
I mean, you guys can do it. I'll usually just panic around while you all goof off.
I miss Hab Dreyko 
shit i miss clicked the invite
ngl i know where this is, but my game's brightness is so much darker that this just looks unfamiliar
hab dreyko is good now
Least mechanically gifted darktide player
playing so much ogryn gave me nerve damage
clicked m1 too much
Wut?
Soon you will goof off too
Excuse me, I run Knoife and DS4. My hand goes numb after long sessions.
Nu. I need to tryhard for Auric Examplar. Also got dooked to 0.
Sus.
Please don't flame my gameplay
Yeah it helps in clutches and quality of life
the psyker RUN AWAY!!! hehe
It’s used as a sniper / specialist picker really it’s just having good target priorities
so used with the inferno it gives range?
No, it just slaps the random elite/special in hordes.
COs you run it with flayer.
Kinda yeah
Just helps you pick off something you’ll have trouble reaching with inferno
Unless you FGS, I guess.
Flayer would be good if it had no cooldown
Or lower cd.
Think it would be too strong without CD.
But current CD is just too long.
Veri cool 5/7 
Thank you
sorry for the mess up 
@dawn fjord with that build you can be very aggressive and be the most insane carry ever or you can sit back and relax with your team
@plucky flax you were right, I don't think I was necessary 
It's Ainz. You basically don't need to play, lul.
ye same
you were my 290'th clear
That's something at least 
i noticed you werent even looking for the next spot with no gas just going before it even cleared lmao
I had a bunch of Xbox lfgs telling me that I should stream
I still couldn’t solo twins ngl the melee kept shoulder bashing me when I was shooting at their shield
phase 1 is only 1 switch, phase 2 is 1.5, phase 3 is 2
I know the timing of the gas
and I know the exact spot they spawn in
rinda and rodin
I sstand right behind rinda to start on her barrier
because of anoint in blood damage bonus
Do you know the flavour of their sport?
cannibalism

Blood.
You never change sister, still playing with your food.
In the, bloodsport way.
Is like hunting prey.
You let them run, you let them fight.
Just for the thrill of it, the chance your prey might even get the upperhand against you.
So worth it when you finally sink your blade into them, watching as they bleed out on it.
interesting name

she likes them
@abstract arch explain
Explain what?
the image above (pretty please)
There's no flavour without sport.
There's no flavour without sport.
What else do you want to know?
i think there should be zero explanations
Yes
There's no flavour without sport.
Gawd damnit, GF said horni things before running off to bed reeeeeeeeeeeeee
Also, I explained it already.
I can’t believe you mpreged me
Run after her?
She's in another country. She'll only come here like 4 months later.
I was just on call with her the entire time.
This isnt zel chat
Ah 
My fault og
Dorn ref
bruh i have so many braced autoguns
i think need to sell them all and build 3 new ones
Well, am up for damnation runs to finish my psyker weeklies if you wanna play.
im down too
Sure
I was helping a dude to do his ASS. It was so smooth until a BoN was killed and he rant up to it when it exploded... then got launched out of the edge.
RIP his ASS

Why aren't they playing it safe if they wanted ASS though?
@upper sun what nice names we have
hell yeah
I don't control their characters.
Who even is this
its not

Its from telo, idk what it is
is it never goon?
What blessings to put on the inferno force staff?
CLEA NEVER GOON I think he's called.
Yes, and I'm Moaning Monk
You will goon
blaze away, nexus
the vet is always goon
Typically Blaze Away and Warp Nexus.
Not penetrating flame for anti armor?
Try it in meat grinder and you will see it real quick
Gooning good.
Carapace is so resistant to soulblaze that pen flame doesn't do enough
It's technically 3x the damage or something like that with pen flame, but it's still bad
surge nexus
The only interesting thing about pen flame is it stacks with other brittleness, so you can actually soulblaze carapace with it at reasonable rates... if you have a brittleness-applicating teammate
Zealot chat leak
As Ainz said, surge and nexus
Surge Nexus is the most common. I run Surge + Flurry.
(which is weird and dumb)
Dang, I dont have blaze away unlocked for the inferno staff
Blaze Away is super important, that is definitely the blessing you want to unlock first
I have a level 3 Warp Nexus and a Level 4 Warp Flurry for the Inferno staff
you have a vet?
I mean, you can use a nexus/flurry staff
mari
That was the meta before Blaze Away/Pen Flame got released
But both Blaze Away and Pen Flame are better damage than Flurry
So blaze away and pen flame for inferno staff?
Darn it. Only got level 2 blaze away
I use Blaze Away and Pen Flame purely out of preference
Pen Flame only helps with bosses really, and even then only if you don't do the uncanny soulblaze trick
I like warp flurry though
I mean, you can run whatever you like 🤷♂️
Metawise, Blaze Away is by far the most important
Faster charge was good for me so far since I always cool off the warp peril
Well, the issue with warp flurry is Inferno has such long casting times
I spam half charges three times and do a full fourth charge
Yeah anything that flurry would help with should ptolly be lmbd first
You really don't get a huge benefit out of warp flurry compared to other blessings or flurry on other staves
Weird combo but alright
The optimal charging would be to do full charge for the first and then small charges to maintain Blaze Away
But I don't bother with that 
Blaze Away is basically king regardless of how you use the staff
Even procs off lmb spam
but even if you do smaller charges to maintain Blaze Away, Warp Flurry still isn't super beneficial. It only increases charging and not casting time, and crits literally double Inferno's soulblaze application which is why Warp Nexus is 2nd best

the fuck was that
i was dodging the chaos spawn for a minute before the drop
how did i get aggro
I can understand liking Flurry because you attack faster, but Inferno is the staff that wants Flurry the least by far
The only staff with its highest damage build including Flurry is EK (provided people aren't stealing your Voidstrike kills
)
Clad clutching? It's impossible.
I could see generalist voidstrike going flurry
But double balls hell na
Wait what
wdym wat
Elaborate on that I always just did full charges
Blaze Away maintains its stacks if you charge quick enough
Just watch it build up lol
so you do like 1/4 charges to maintain Blaze Away
Got it
(but it's very little extra damage which is why I don't bother)
I only start doing that if I start panicking 
Is the bonus at least noticeable
Like will I be able to shred anything above a horde unit with the bonus
Eh. I mean, your scoreboard will be higher.
Blaze Away already lets you do that

It took a while to kill stuff like ragers and bulwarks
Maybe I’m just being too greedy
I just spam lmb if I can't eek out full charges
That also full procs blaze away
but that's cuz the staff has infinite cleave
Maybe only in havoc. In maelstrom ragers die super fast. Bulwark maybe a tad longer but I have unyielding on my burga.
Sure, but they don't die that slowly to Inferno either
With burga at least at havoc 30 I didn't notice anything feeling any tankier, they feel thicker but meh
Yeah, super satisfying to see the big fat mob of elites coming towards you only to disappear in like 5 seconds 👌
I like the popcorn effect from the pus skin
I have flak unyielding blaze away warp nexus
But you'll need the brittleness stacking with pen flame and another source to do it to crushers
Straight up feels like setting off popcorn lol
It feels like most of my elite kills with flame staff are from kinetic flayer
That is what I would consider meta, yeah
I gotta start remembering that lmb staggers ragers
Does it stagger them while they are attacking
Most of mine are from the staff or perilous because of the things dying from staff
Yes
I might as well use it as a alternative push before swapping back to fgs
How many shots does it take
I mean, on auric Inferno tends to fall behind good teammates
Because of range
Good teammates will pop most things before you get a chance
Like one, maybe 2?
Got it
1
Are you playing maelstrom or havoc?
Nice
but also its accuracy is wonky
Havoc
so you should spam it a bit just to be sure
Probably why my experience with it was so skewed
Okay fair maybe things die a bit slower but you should still shred.
Alright
Yeah i just spam it until I'm in a position to really hunker down

Watch this for high level havoc burga spam

Chinese players are pretty good. They chant I do damage very easy havoc 40.

00:49 Game Starts
Not sure if that's right or not
Your experience would make more sense on Auric honestly
I’m just too used to zealot one shotting everything lmao
On Havoc, Inferno is all the dablage
I don’t think I’m ready for auric yet lmao
wat Havoc are you at
Wtf
But that’s because I’m doing it with a proper team

You should be fine on Auric, wtf
Lemme explain rq aight
Auric is like sub-25 Havoc
You're being carried in 30s?
I got to 32 because I was with a good team but I wasn’t confident that I could clutch if the team went down and that makes me feel uncomfortable
I like doing stuff if I know I can handle the situation when it goes to shit
I wasn’t intending to do havoc but I saw the diamantine rewards and jumped in
Psyker clutches feel super good but aren't reliable
Don’t think I actually done more than like 5 aurics in my life I’m still trying to solo heresy
I mean, clutches aren't reliable because all it takes is one lucky trapper
or Fatshark's programming
to dumpster you
Or lag
Been experiencing some semi hefty lag lately
Staves doing weird shit and so on
Bro, Havoc turned the lag dial to 11
That’s unfortunate but for now I need to work on dealing with the extremely obvious approaching trapper without panicking in a horde
So until I’m confident in myself I just decided to put aurics on a hold
With inferno?
Lmb spam answers all questions but crusher
warp slice 
True
I keep holding on to warp until it’s full on charges
Staff 
Recon hip dump
Mf if I could remember this stuff I wouldn’t be struggling with heresy lmao
Oh don't meleeker with warp chargesn
gotta learn to use it for stagger
Oh that
Yea I was told it was good for rager hordes
talking about slice charges
eeeeehhh
It's okay if you get the drop on them
only staggers ragers that aren't in combo
Non havoc i use it to soften up crusher packs or delete rager packs
Havoc yeah it's the stop hurting me laser
Damn
laser
DID SOMEBODY SAY BEAM STAFF

I’m really hard on myself for even being netted or pounced if I don’t play like an ai what am I doing

Cuz I’m abysmal dogshit
I've come to accept everyone has losses and ya just gotta learn from what you can
I been dodging way too early for trappers and cspawn grabs
Got this a week ago
If you want to beat up rager packs in melee, use FGS' range and dodges well with timing (or just spam Devil's Claw parry)
Eh. Slice works well and is juicy
Or purg them
Slice works if they haven't started combos or you have 2 charges
Yea I just run up into their face and start spamming heavies while side dodging
But I usually get hit out of it and stunlocked to death
I keep forgetting how long fgs is lmao
I almost nut when I get that two charge horde meet yeetus deleetus
I dislike the finicky targeting for the slice though
And the reactions of teammates is hilarious
2 charges into poxwalkers on an open field and somehow a couple are just completely fine

Yeah that is kinda shit
I wish it was an over heat like the relic
The relic takes the heat mechanic to be almost as good as the fgs without the warp slice lol
I wish the warp slice blessing gave you charges passively (while preventing decay) instead of the stupid crit nonsense
Relic is a good zealot wep but kinda shit comparatively with fgs
I wish it allowed the appliance of blazing
Ngl before fgs I found normal force swords to be really fun to use
They felt really bouncy in a good way
I still find illisi to be fun
Fire Sword will never be real 😭
Deimos is kinda old hat and obscurus is strange
Funny, I like Deimos and dislike Illisi
Please add the fire dagger
I agree Obscurus is strange
Please fat shark
But I don't even use fgs for havoc. Ds4 or deimos is perfect partner for inferno
I mainly use ds4 because I like FGS too much and forget to use the staff in Havoc 
I just want something for crushers and the ds and deimos are the best for it
Apparently the obscurus had stupid high ttk with the proper conditionals
But I don’t remember the conditionals 💀
And the diagonal heavy light loop horde clear felt kind of ass to use
It has good combos as an inbetween of Deimos and Illisi, but only if you know those combos
Inferno handles literally everything else. I see no place for fgs on a havoc build
But big sword 
Unless trauma but I dont use that so idk
Trauma prefers ds4
I use rending trauma and it still prefers ds4
I got kicked from the first 35 I was accepted into yesterday cuz dude was like switch to rend trauma and I'm like no u
Everything but bosses gets exploded anyway

so ds4 it is
My first experience with a psyker in vc was a guy who felt the need to explain every little bit of his kit in game over and over
I would be attacking a horde and he would just start blabbering about how he was apply a shit ton of fragile to them with his flame staff
Pen Flame user 
I always get bad smit3kers telling me that I should be killing the things they're smiting and protecting them
My only bad experiences were in vc ngl I play on like 250p resolution so I physically cannot make out any words in the chat
I just assume I’m being complimented
Had a guy accepted into a havoc yesterday that was bubble smite and braced autogun with dd lol
I just switched to a different havoc
The carry
Anyone have that deep dark fantasy saltzpyre meme?
the clad stu experience 

i get trapped he dies saving me

Wallahi
Common force sword w
Our win rate together is not the best, but it's always fun 
i ate more sniper shots that game than last year
Need Chaos to carry. Also, maybe I need to stop enjoying voidstrike.
i also had to pee all game
Or just play more vet. IDK, maybe inf shouty be good.
i was doing this for a solid minute with the boss btw
@marble crater also you were 👌 this close to get pox burstered
Good thing you missed 
i jerked my mouse up when i realized 😠
I would have just started a internal monologue about inertia and my own unmatched strength and let the rock hit dead center
What if the psykers are so insane they’ve been hallucinating the other rejects and this whole time they’ve been sent on solo missions
Did you mean LAG beyond LAG?
Where you are there but not at times?
That’s it it’s off to the enforcers with you
A good enforcer doesn’t leave an insane colleague behind, that’s just protocol
What's the strategy to keeping disrupt destiny up for as long as possible?
Use cruel fortune and lingering... lingering whatever
I'm trying to do the penance and I'm getting close to the completion threshold, but I can't hold as many stacks as it requires for that amount of time
I don't recognise these, are they blessings?
They are the subnodes of DD
And I've consired going gun psyker to get around this
I'm playing on auric maelstorm for best chances of specials and kills
wat weapon are you using
whats the dump stat for the force greatsword? defenses or warp res?
warp res
I'm not set on anything right now, my psyker gear is very much a mess.
I'm mostly using surge staff, voidstrike staff, a revolver and a mix of the force swords
If you're really having trouble with it, just take revolver and bean every highlighted target
Shouldn't be that hard tho
Yeah it shouldn't be but I'm competing for kills a lot or my highlighted targets are behind walls or something
I'll just keep at it with revolver and assail
youd be better off with a fast firing gun and diving into melee
Not if they're competing for kills
Yes
a lot of people have all the psyker penances, it isnt an impossible feat
Can confirm, have all the psyker penances and I'm not impossible
who said theyre impossible?
nobody
Vets are
vet penances are fine
I’m not using stealth vet
ogryn is just super grindy
I could pretend to need it.
its okie 😭 its getting late today
Also, I am home. I am no longer in the forest.
you were in the forest?
ye
That's my line
0/10, missing penances
damn i miss hiking
Here's some moss that I thought was neat.
Also discord wasn't loading because no signal.
i would not recommend going into the forest without all of the above
Dregs can't buy stuff at the store.
No smite no service
The vet ones are fun, recommended
The “90% accuracy while ending the mission out of ammo” one in particular is a fun challenge
i still remember that one
i almost went crazy trying to get in a game without a survivalist vet but eventually got in in one lobby with one drunk person and two that kept flirting all game
what other melees would be good for melee psyker besides the two force swords and ds
mmm big sord
The issue with meleeker is they are quite a ways behind the other classes in melee. Their exclusives are very strong (or previously-exclusive) almost as if to balance it out, buuuuuut that also means the shared weapons all kinda suck for psyker. Like, you can use Combat Axe but it won't be nearly as effective as it is on Vet, and you can use Knife but it's no drugged-up Zealot.
Let me live my life
(He was never seen again)
rashad can be quite good
obscurus prob too
Which one is rashad again? The axe?
caxe
Knife very good
Shock maul ok
No?

Imagine not recognizing a weapon for what it is just because you can do well with it
Tbf
I've only ever taken it as the dedicated monster damage in otherwise capable builds
That explains a lot
The blue one
@worn heron do u wanna toys in maincord vc
Hey can someone help me with the shocking stuff penence
What curios to use for high level havoc? +17 toughness + combat regent, + toughness +stam regen?
I think it works ok with purgatus yeah
But I wouldn’t use it for meleeker
curios are highly personal
and also don't matter all that much in the grand scheme of things really
I do 2x tough 1x stam with CDR/stam regen/tough
I put that on all characters, love it
We can use this on all classes?
It’s a free country you can do what you want chief
Missin out
They just have so many ways to never run out of stamina that it's kinda whatever
Like?
FASTER!
Mmmmm no
Well dodge/mobility could save you right?
A lot more frequently than any of the other options yeah
and you want to slide everywhere anyway
Stam lets you keep blocking even at max peril
so stam isn't even really consumed by running
There are lots of situations where sliding isn’t a good idea
Sure. Or just manage peril better
Maxing peril without dying is managing it better
And sprinting is?

Yeah
No
For instance in tight areas like the rooms in carnival
You can’t really slide except in one or two directions but you can run and mantle and duck and cover very easily
I mean you can't sprint while mantling
Yes but you can sprint into one
Also if you’re dodge sliding at the wrong time you can get netted/eat a reaper barrage that you can’t avoid
unless you don't slide when you should be sliding
Or as I’ve done, dodge slide right into a crush
those all sound like skill issues
It also preserves dodges which can be very important in melee
Well lots of other people love stam/stam regen 🤷♀️
Being able to push attack with total freedom 👌 perfection
Psyker can still use a ton of stam if you want to and I sure do
Psyker can do that without stam regen
Sure, they can but there's really no need
But again the biggest advantage is that you can still block for a long time at max peril
and it's not even beneficial to do so imo
That's not much of an advantage considering just how much KD can do for you
even on Dueling Sword's +0 stam
So instead of Stam regen what do you put on your curios?
cd reduction, toughness and ?
Depends, honestly. I use +health sometimes, or +gunner res/sniper res
in Havoc 40...?
3 gunner res in Havoc 40 will save your caboose if you react quickly enough to a surprise volley or something like that
but you will obviously still get shot to pieces if you're just taking it to the face 
but but but Mr Psyker should always be in safety bubble 
Sure, and you should never get hit too
Strange how people still get hit
You could also run toughness regen
but that's a theoretical 'could be funny' I haven't tested yet
toughness regen bad
Nu uh, i can br shot by 100 gunners and they do nothing because of EE 
I love walking out of cover like a chad

Exactly, it doesn’t do much
We've been over this
Stam regen at least gives you mobility
Stan regen is good!
mobility you already have 
But it could be better!
Fatshark, let me block overheads 
You kinda can
Idk, sometimes I can clearly see the overhead and I dodge while blocking and get a toughness break and no stam instead of dead
Yeah, but it ain't the block
All I know is I see it happen in games
Well, it shows the block animation
Maybe I’m perfect blocking or something
Again, really not common event
But does happen every couple games
I see it happen too, but I think it's just other buffs. It always happens when there's a shouter/bible boy
because gold toughness
Well see most of the time I’m on my preacher man and I don’t always have gold toughness
And I never take the holy rev line + no health damage
Most of the time that this happens
It has nothing to do with blocking because overheads have a special flag to break (normal) blocks
But what about perfect block?
and KD doesn't make your block special or anything
Am I accidentally nailing a timing challenge?
I don't think they matter but I could be wrong
It does matter for parry
What is a good staff to pair with smite+greatsword?
uh, EK I guess?
Blessings for EK?
JSON does that with surge stick, I’ve tried his build and it works pretty good
I don't have the last 3 unlocked tho
Warp Nexus, Flurry
He does smite to get psyk aura then mostly right tree into DD
Uses the surge stick to nail specials and keep peril up for warp rider
I’ve been using it to “force push” gunners with the left click while dodge sliding into them for a stab
Which looks really cool and is sorta useful?
Because like obviously I could just use the surge stick to kill them
From total safety
Ek electro?
Sure whatever the new name is
Electrokinetic, yeah
The lighting zap stick
Surge and nexus
Surge blessing on surge staff is only for left click memes
For right click you’d want flurry
I only just lmb on my build
Unless i need to open a bulwark

You can find my build here:

hey zealot chat, what do you recommend for heavy sword?
blessings and perks?
oh wait
its been a long day
They recommend the mk8 fgs
They recommend lots of terrible things
I'm so done with the upper cut that I might go to mk8 tbh (which was just overhead thrust iirc?
Why you use a knife habibi?
idk wat u mean by uppercut
Best movement, and also rendering for soulblaze
Link me your build
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9bb9ee95-0b68-43d7-abd0-05c8aae4258e/soulblaze-storm
Ik pots is trash but im hoping they buff it

Can I use DS instead of knife?
That's not even an inferno build
Yes, that's the alternative
I just personally find knife better
Just watched the video you must be like the top 0.01% of Psykers
Unfortunately some of my best plays i haven't recorded, but I've dealt stupid damage with that build
I use Mk6 fgs
But because I play with you I go zealot
But I'm making the vet build
I'm just rolling for the curios
Then I will be frag master
Dumb question but when do you actually use Assail? Taking out Snipers?
Yes, and its also great for taking out groups of shooters quick, inferno has limited range and takes too long
It can also crit which has synergy with the build
Lots of strange choices in the build tho 
You don't approve 
Definitely not

For example, ethereal shards over warp splitting
warp splitting benefits all weapons including assail
@weary crane explain!
and easily matches ethereal shards with just a bit of peril
Im not a technical enough player for all this. I forget about dd half the time lol
I just stab things
Ah less lets put cleave on inferno and knife
Plus, no Perilous Combustion, no wildfire, no Psykinetics
Wildfire for inferno?
It benefits assail more than ethereal shards
Oh no
You're one of those
wait haven't you had wildfire explained to you
multiple times
@naive ember ignore this mf
Go talk to your family or something, enjoy the new year
Your suggestion is noted.
Actually, I've got a prewritten message for this situation don't I 
Some people dislike Wildfire, but it is good and is a damage increase. Wildfire works by spreading up to 4 stacks of soulblaze on a target that dies, with each stack being distributed evenly (so a dying target with 3 stacks spreads 3 stacks, 1 stack to each nearby enemy if there are 3 of them with 0 stacks, but will spread 4 stacks if the dying target has 4 stacks, 2 to one of the 3 nearby enemies). Wildfire is incredibly useful because it can spread beyond your Inferno staff's range, meaning when an enemy enters Inferno's range you already have 4 stacks applied to them when in tense, Auric Damnation/Havoc 25+ situations due to enemy density being stupidly high. That is 1/4th of Inferno's max stacks, which is significant and really helps Inferno stack all that quicker and kill quicker, helping Wildfire spread more. On top of that, Wildfire helps eliminate chaff (4 stacks doesn't kill alone but can kill with Blaze Away and other buffs) and manage your sides/back without you doing anything. You won't be killing hordes with Wildfire, but when you turn around to face a threat you'll find enemies nice and pre-toasted. It also helps you gain more Warp Siphon stacks through In Fire Reborn, and get the first stack of Soulblaze so that your Blaze Away blessing always applies even if other Soulblaze Psykers are around. I wholeheartedly support Wildfire on an Inferno build in the game's current state (and it's still very good on a lot of other staff builds with Creeping Flames too).
Never asked you to 
public chat 
The ability that marks enemies and gives you stacks for killing them and increases your speed. Is there a visual indicator to marked enemies?
Ill read exactly half
Yes, marked enemies glow blue
In the training area I've looked around and haven't seen an indicator, I'll kill tons of enemies and only occasionally get the proc.
DD doesn't work in the psykh
Really? I sat in the training area looking around and couldn't see anything distinguishable
It doesn't work in psykanium normally because enemy ai has to be active for it to work.
It'll work if you use creature spawner to turn off your invis
yes
Ah, that makes sense, maybe I'll take it for a spin in real games. Also, creature spawner?
it's a mod
ah
lets you spawn in and fight stuff in psykanium
Thanks for the info.
So are you saying focusing on the left side of the skill tree (wild fire) would do more damage with Inferno? 🤔
Very much so, that's the normal meta
Especially because you also get Perilous Combustion and psykinetics
and you can add BB with Kinetic Flayer on top. BB sucks, but you want to be on your staff to deal damage anyway.
and Kinetic Flayer is purely passive damage and works well with the amount of hits Inferno spews
They’re psychic manifestations with no destiny to disrupt
The way I interpret this is that wildfire is effectively multiplicative kill scaling with a limit because otherwise there wouldn't be any enemies on the screen, ever.
It's an accelerator which keeps up your kill pacing and I guess the value from a pre 4 stacked soulblaze enemy compared to 0 is significant enough for it to be worth it in ttks till the next DOT tick. Is that right?
Pretty much, the extra crit from souldrinker and the crit aura is kinda overrated
It's nice to have, but nothing compared to what you can do with a left side build
Show me your build 
Yes
I just like fire so I like wild fire because it do some fire
This is literally my logic
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9d5f5cb5-afee-4f51-9393-b8429e8c6765/the-burning-man-inferno-guide This is a somewhat outdated auric guide, but the build itself is still there
I haven't updated it because I'm working on moving it to steam
It'll definitely be published some day, I promise
Gooner resist lol
It's not bad
and the curios, as noted, are personal taste. I think for newer players, the specific curios I showed are better.
I don't want to hear anything from a stam regen user
inferno psyker just got outdamage'd by rending trauma 
Fellas, do any of y'all have a fire trauma build on hand?
😤 don’t be mad you can’t handle the power, be glad you can observe it from safety 😤
This is what I run for Havoc
But but but, funni block build.
KD
Yes, but.
Viable to ditch wildfire fire TDR on peril tho
But again otherwise fine
Viable, yes? Dumb? Also yes
It's Havoc
Toughness gone
Agent dropped it too and for similar reasons 🤷♀️ a little more TDR is nice
i have joned this server for the express purpose of asking why the hell the Shoot Fast Penance is so stupid
🤷♂️ Agent is a good player
Good players can do what they want and be fine
I, as a bad player, have to hug meta to survive
The factions are emerging
What about that blitz augment? Is it really worth using now?
I think it’s more a trade off call in damage vs survivability
It's easy for some reason for me? IDK how ppl had a hard time with it.
Kinetic Flayer? yes, it is almost a guaranteed PC and Psykinetic proc
Very good for inferno/trauma
It's the one you pop jumping doggos, right?
not sure +5% TDR or +15 toughness matters in havoc but i dont think wildfire matters either
25 of them
its just very tedious and specific
Wildfire is really good tho, and I really hate that people just look at it and assume it's bad
