I like the frost gear

Might actually have to spend money in Darktide 😭

And another psyker that smite the whole map but not during objectives.

Crushers were a time.

[wind spruce]

It's been aaaages since they got me last

[torn kernel]

i hate how the tint on the helm makes it not match with like most sets

[radiant frigate]

i still had slopbucks from when the thingy edition upgrade was on sale

so realistically i already paid for this fgs skin ages ago

[nocturne dust]

I've always been a sucker for snow gear

[radiant frigate]

the set looks cool too

[quartz barn]

Simply use mods for skins

[nocturne dust]

But no point in drip if you can't show it off

[radiant frigate]

but idk if i like it more than the loyalist 6th top with the white plate pants from the dockets slopshop

(and i don't think i do)

[quartz barn]

Loyalist scum

[nocturne dust]

Besides, I have enough hours in Darktide I should probably throw them some more money at some point

[plucky flax]

I bought the set and the funny goggles and mask.

And the big sword skin.

[torn kernel]

i could sell some cs skins for them

[plucky flax]

White hair white mask goes kinda hard.

[torn kernel]

btw would you mind checking if the helmet goes with the uhh chestpiece you get from Malleus Monstronum? the chonky one

i'm not home rn

[weary idol]

did you know Bardin has a removed voiceline where he says this exact thing about Kerrilian going down

You used to be able to ping allies that were downed/incapacitated by specials and there were unique voicelines for it

[radiant frigate]

not removed

[weary idol]

Bardin pinging a downed Kerrilian would sometimes just say "The Elf's Horizontal"

[radiant frigate]

he still sometimes says this when she goes down

[weary idol]

[nocturne dust]

Chadin

[weary idol]

anyways did you know that it had unique voicelines for people being snagged by packmasters too

[radiant frigate]

also yes that is why i chose that phrasing

[weary idol]

hard as fuck to actually ping your teammate and not the rat

[edgy heart]

still says it, and is pretty common lol

Not enough time in a day even if you ks every one.

You get like 10-15 a run. That's still 130+ runs.

You can do like 3 runs an hour.

I feel too dead alone and gf wants 4 man for aurics.

Pain when nobody really plays SEA other than Idyll.

[sudden willow]

SEA players really do have it rough for most games

[deft stump]

There is few if any. Is why Battleborn with 360 ping awfulness as usual.

Nobody else wants to play with lag.

Though that game needs too monster of a PC to run tbh. I ran it at sub 10 fps in outdoor areas.

2060 cannot deal with it lul.

[plucky flax]

I can play couple rounds in eu now

[deft stump]

GL with most SEA players having rigs worse than whar I had.

[sudden willow]

I play a Bannerlord mod and the sea players have it rough in melee

[deft stump]

350+ ping and questionable packet loss.

[sudden willow]

Though there are a few gods who manage to top the board even with 200+ ping

[deft stump]

Have to be like 2 hours later. Walking doggo.

[marble crater]

Which is ironic with all the people living there

[summer prairie]

there were some v2 gods that regularly played with like 400ms

[plucky flax]

I'll be prepping for work then

[deft stump]

Just playing with weights, basically.

[deft stump]

Their pcs barely run the games so no population. You have to understand why LoL is more played cos that thing runs on a toaster.

[sudden willow]

pls pet the gremlin for me

[deft stump]

DOTA2 actually needs a half decent cpu.

[sudden willow]

Secretly it's making you a sheer god at the game. One day you'll play with good ping and just annihilate everything

She's a small med.

Or actually a big small?

big small sounds more ironic, so I'd go with that one lol

when using the electro kinetic force staff do i wanna go for full charges to just spam half charges

[plucky flax]

Full charge mostly. If you know enemies have very little hp left (hp bar mod) then just minimal charge to finish it off.

[torn kernel]

a couple quick minimum charges to get Flurry going wouldn't hurt

[raven mountain]

I still very much like voidstrike and do well with it, but since I've been doing havocs, pus-hardened really dampened how good the loud bowling balls feels.

[deft stump]

Loud? You mean deafening.

[quartz barn]

Ye void is the worst staff for havoc

[torn kernel]

pus- hardened fucks up everything except for soulblaze

[deft stump]

Trauma cheats though.

[quartz barn]

Rending trauma also slaps the green bois

[raven mountain]

I like it better than EK for havocs. But I also don't care for the lmb spam build.

[torn kernel]

tru tru

[quartz barn]

Elektro is strong vs monsters

Lmb spam hits really hard

[torn kernel]

also hits your mouse & fingers hard if you do it for too long

[raven mountain]

That's true. Especially if you've gotten the 30% extra warp damage taken and warp damage on crit.

Honestly, there's just a lot of damage ramp for that stupid build.

I don't mind doing a quick quell cancel if I'm just pummeling something, but it bothers me how much effectiveness you get out of it and how easy it is to abuse.

[plucky flax]

Right click surge is strong when not playing into pus hardened.

[quartz barn]

I just stick to purg/trauma

[raven mountain]

I like it for a change of pace in aurics. And I like it paired with smite since smite/shriek is a ton of horde clear.

Any tips on how to use the great sword properly it seems like when I use it it's a wet noodle. I got maniacs and flack on it with deflect and the crit chance( forgot the name) blessings

Unyielding too

[pine shore]

maybe

+10% attack speed talent is amazing

wrath, shred blessings is what I use

[ornate hamlet]

It only seems when shtf and I got ogryns and berserkers they just flatten me. Thanks I will try what you suggested

[patent mango]

ragers i recommend using the thrust stab

[marble crater]

I recommend running away

[patent mango]

fgs has range to deal with ragers

[ornate hamlet]

I'm still pretty new and thx for advice

[jovial juniper]

Remember the push attack

It's handy on 1v1s

[patent mango]

true true hold m2 and m1 to do the funny force push

[raven mountain]

This has served me through aurics and havocs.

[ornate hamlet]

Yeah I learnt that in first 4 hours of play

[jovial juniper]

It's so peak

Wish more weapons had the force swords pa

[raven mountain]

The heavy push attack can even interrupt rager combos and bulwark shields. So use it whenever you feel like you need an adult.

[patent mango]

heavy las 🔥

[raven mountain]

I love the heavy las push!

[patent mango]

yknow its odd that only heavy las has it

[raven mountain]

I think autopistol needs a push, not a flashlight

and it should have bleed on hit baseline.

[jovial juniper]

https://tenor.com/view/more-kylo-ren-adam-driver-screaming-star-wars-gif-17734637

[raven mountain]

Then it'd feel better than a slightly faster-to-swap autogun.

[marble crater]

Force Dueling swords when?

[raven mountain]

I think it's called a Deimos.

[marble crater]

It's not

I like being fast

[raven mountain]

All staves should have a force push though instead of a wimpy bonk

[jovial juniper]

Why does it have 22 cleave though 😭

[raven mountain]

Yeah, deimos isn't that fast. I think it's like 5.0 or 5.2 instead of the 5.8 you can get on a ds4

So that when you hit the alt attack twice, the staff swing hits everything!

[brazen rampart]

There's a lot of cool things that psyker needs, like blazing spirit working on warpshock slash... (this would shatter balance)

[raven mountain]

I mean, it wouldn't so much

Bunch of shit just dies to it already

and it wouldn't stack cap with inferno staff

[brazen rampart]

Seraph, lemme put it like this, right.

Fgs has guaranteed crits on warpshock slash as a blessing.

[upper galleon]

you can outrange ragers

it's all about pacing yourself out properly with blocks and dodges, then just use single target attacks, preferably stabs

[brazen rampart]

You wouldn't need to charge it to get blazing spirit value.

Draw, empower, swing, stow for however long it takes for your guaranteed crit to return, repeat.

[thorn cedar]

15 seconds

[ornate hamlet]

Yeah generally I am deleting everything with the lighting staff. Just having issues when everything goes pear shaped

[thorn cedar]

so youd never even be able to stack soulblaze with it

just splash it out

that cooldown's gotta go

[brazen rampart]

That's still 6 stacks of soulblaze (iirc t4 bs is 6 stacks) every 15 seconds and then you switch to your staff and help it clean up a bit.

[ornate hamlet]

It's also down to low play time/skill right now

But thanks for all the advice

[raven mountain]

Doesn't it interact with the assured crit near defy destiny?

[brazen rampart]

True aim does not affect warpshock slash, no.

[raven mountain]

rip

[brazen rampart]

True aim does affect assail though.

[raven mountain]

Yeah, threw together an assail/scrier's/dd with trauma staff so I can whip it out into trains.

Doesn't get to abuse the non-peril ranged quelling though, and I didn't fit in the 30% quell speed.

So I'm not happy with it yet.

I usually just end up skipping scriers and going for shriek. Dump assail, shriek, smack shit around.

[raven mountain]

Also, just checked, but the soulblaze on hit for fgs is the shitty trauma version. It only goes to 6 stacks. Regular force sword gets to go up to 12.

So you're only throwing 4 stacks of fire on a horde that you basically already cleared with the attack itself

[patent mango]

slopshark why

[brazen rampart]

Still, that would be a huge opener for a horde. Instantly getting 4 stacks of soulblaze on some 40 targets is huge damage potential.

Because, again, you wouldn't need to charge your sword.

[raven mountain]

I guess, it might give some use to the unempowered charge attack.

[brazen rampart]

Just empower and swing, let the flames do the rest.

[raven mountain]

Let the flames tickle them until someone with real fire does the work. 😛

[analog agate]

Hordes die too fast for blaze on sword. Or are you talking about havoc?

[raven mountain]

Theoretical on if the fgs warpshock could do fire and whether it would be broken or not.

[brazen rampart]

I just mentioned if blazing spirit worked on warpshock slash that it'd be balance shattering.

[analog agate]

Gotcha. Yeah, shame it doesn’t

[brazen rampart]

Bc it has a guaranteed crit every 15s.

[raven mountain]

I don't think it would be crazy, especially since you wouldn't be able to stack it.

[thorn cedar]

It'd be decidedly mid.

This comes at the cost of two blessing slots.

[raven mountain]

Like, absolute best, you have the assured crit, and you throw two of them (to get to 90% with the low warp res sword) then shriek

[thorn cedar]

One with a tremendous cooldown (that really shouldnt)

[raven mountain]

and you're at... 10? stacks?

[brazen rampart]

Yeah.

[raven mountain]

I guess 10 is enough to clear some chaff.

[brazen rampart]

10 stacks will clear chaff in seconds lol.

[raven mountain]

But I still wouldn't call it broken.

Like, 10 is nice and all, but it's not decidedly broken or anything. I'm not even sure it's better than what inferno+shriek or trauma+shriek already do.

I guess you'd get to run EK, voidstrike, or a gun and still get to do 10 warpfire stacks

but I don't think that hits "broken" status either

[thorn cedar]

you could also just bank the crit on the actual warp slice itself and juice off the horde

its still baseline 30% extra damage on the big slice, excluding all your other bonuses

[raven mountain]

I desperately want fire swords to work, but they just don't

[brazen rampart]

Blazing spirit should be changed to soulblaze stacks when you touch elites.

[ornate hamlet]

This would have saved me a lot of deaths if I knew this haha

[fringe garden]

The heavy push also has phenomenal range

[brazen rampart]

Elites are the only things that can actually survive to the point of getting blazing spirit to do anything to them.

[fringe garden]

You can push someone like.. 15 feet away

[raven mountain]

Wildfire needs an actual rework, like 4 stacks to everything nearby consistently, and blazing spirit needs to apply its 4 stacks before something dies so that they can spread for fire swords to begin to work.

[brazen rampart]

That would be peak, actually.

If the game knew that whatever you killed would technically have 4 stacks of fire on it for spreading, I mean.

[raven mountain]

Yeah, blazing spirit on an illisi or something gives you a way to smack a monster and get extra dot

[marble crater]

4 stacks to everything? That's OP and won't happen

[raven mountain]

Maybe the 4 stacks to everything is a bit much, but the blazing spirit pre-applying stacks before something dies would go a long way.

[brazen rampart]

I think it'd be fine to do 1 stack to everything nearby instead of a potential 1 stack to 4 targets.

[vernal frost]

warpfire should make enemies always keep a baseline of 1-2 stacks

[raven mountain]

Then you can get some fire spread from just attacks

[fringe garden]

Or make a blessing that sets your sword on fire for X duration after using a spdcial

And while it's on fire all hits apply soulblaze of however many stacks

[vernal frost]

vt2 fire sword my beloved.......

[raven mountain]

Or... hear me out... but force sword activations should also ignite enemies.

[vernal frost]

yeah well uhh

[raven mountain]

Even if it only went to like 8, that'd be cool.

[vernal frost]

they also kinda kill enemeis?

[raven mountain]

Illisi would cleave some horde, but not mixed, and it'd leave them on fire.

Deimos, yeah.

But it'd give more damage to monsters

which is something psyker could use outside of gunker/inferno

[vernal frost]

the issue with the blessing rn aside from it being unreliable is that you kill stuff faster than set it on fire

[raven mountain]

and honestly, idek what the other force sword's activation is like. xD

[idle aurora]

Nuked 5 mil dockets, so far lowest peril is 22 with 80 in everything else

[raven mountain]

That's plenty.

[analog agate]

For what weapon?

[raven mountain]

Mine at 31 (could have had a bit lower if I didn't max everything) gets to 90% in two activations

So you'll probably get to like 94% or so, and that'll give you plenty of time to swing a few times before shrieking.

fgs

[brazen rampart]

Deimos and obscurus use the same activation.

[analog agate]

If you are talking fgs difference between 60 and 20 is around 8 peril

[raven mountain]

idk, 32% for an 80%WR.
38% for a 64%WR
49.8% for a 31%WR

Modified of course by whatever negative peril gen you have in your talents.

And when I use 2 of my low WR one, I get to 90%, which is perfect for shriek

[analog agate]

I have a 30% one and it is 7.7% peril more than my 60 🤷‍♂️. But who am I to say how to spend dockets. Not like we have anything to spend them on anymore

[raven mountain]

On my ~60% one, I need 3 to hit that.

It's a breakpoint!

that holy 86% peril for max shriek fire.

I just wish uncharged warpshock did any kind of damage.

[thorn cedar]

wdym it does 100 damage

[raven mountain]

Like, I get that it's mega cleave and some range on a melee, but doing like 17 damage is silly.

[thorn cedar]

in sedition thats tremendous yknow

[brazen burrow]

Q) Newbie psyker here. I find myself always doing the least dmg/team score . Here is my talent build (optimized based on feedback I received here).
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9e17e642-6bae-4232-b4c7-62ec51532ea4/noobpsyker2

• Can someone recommend a good weapons combo?
• I am not doing a good job of keeping Disrupt D up, I think. Either I tunnel vision on the blue guys, or completely let the buffs drop
• I save my Abilitiy and Assail for hordes... but I also use Q on cooldwon frequently

[strange jewel]

Its so interesting seeing the differences between these groups, While psyker group is talking about builds, numbers and optimization, Zealot group is yapping about how someone got banned for saying slurs in chat

[prime elk]

i have zealot chat blocked at this point

[vernal frost]

yeah well psyker has builds and zealot

[sudden willow]

I mean psyker chat isn't exactly innocent

[vernal frost]

zealot has a tree that people can draw by memory

like 90% of the builds look exactly the same

not a lot of stuff to discuss

[brazen rampart]

Drop battle meditation for perfect timing, drop quietude for crack of bone, drop surety of arms for true aim, change reality anchor on scriers to precognition, drop the passive 5% ranged node above scriers for tranq through slaughter.

[prime elk]

if you go gunker, try using force great sword first

[brazen rampart]

Also drop your assail aux node for cruel fortune on dd.

[prime elk]

and what frog said

[analog agate]

Literally this haha. I was typing the same thing

[summer prairie]

not a very new player friendly build, at least if you want to do highest damage

[prime elk]

yeah SG isn't the most new player friendly

[brazen burrow]

are you referring to my build? If so, what do you suggest?

[brazen rampart]

This is what I run for gunker.

[summer prairie]

staves and shriek are easier for big damage

[brazen rampart]

You don't have a lot in the way of toughness generation, but you do kill things very fast.

[summer prairie]

inferno and EK especially

[prime elk]

how do you live without quietude 😭

[brazen rampart]

Very carefully.

[prime elk]

i don't live carefully

[brazen rampart]

My havoc setup doesn't take quietude either.

[raven mountain]

What difficulty so far?

[brazen burrow]

auric difficlty 5... I only play difficulty 5

[raven mountain]

Interesting. Auric damnation you should be able to pump damage.

[brazen rampart]

That's good.

Better question, how often do you go down?

[raven mountain]

You'll sometimes get beaten by someone, but many psyker builds are very damage capable that high.

[brazen burrow]

Thats a good question. I find myself going down 2-3 times, sometimes even exploding

[raven mountain]

That loses you a wild amount of damage up time.

[brazen rampart]

^^^

Now, what exactly is causing you to go down?

Are you eating crusher overheads? Swarmed by ragers?

[raven mountain]

Not that I'm the emperor's gift to psykers, but I pretty often top damage with void strike, inferno, assail, and even smite/shriek.

So there's a pretty good variety of things you can use.

[brazen rampart]

If you top damage with smite and shriek then genuinely your teammates are lobotomites.

[brazen burrow]

1. I dont know how to balance DD stacks, and playing safe...
2. when the team is overwhelembed by gunners/snipers, I take it upon myself to charge ahead and to take care of them

[raven mountain]

Smite shriek is tons of damage if you have no peril reduction

[brazen rampart]

Ok, console or pc?

[brazen burrow]

PC ofcourse

wtf is a console

[brazen rampart]

Also DD is pretty easy, your build is just lacking one node that makes management a nonissue.

[raven mountain]

What's your ability? Shriek, Scrier's, or Bubble?

[brazen rampart]

The one at the very bottom, cruel fortune, gives 3 stacks of DD when you headshot the funny blue man.

[brazen burrow]

#psyker-class message

[brazen rampart]

If you wanna run scriers and assail, run this with mk8 force greatsword and a recon.

Or mk6 greatsword, I don't care.

[summer prairie]

Something like this for easier big damage with bistol

[brazen rampart]

You can also change the scriers speed node to the tdr node instead if you feel like you're too squishy.

[patent mango]

when you're stabbing people and the sword start gliding 🔥

[bronze nest]

Got all other classes at 30(+50ish) but I just cant seem to find a psyker build that's fun. I feel all 3 blitzes are... kinda boring? They're all pretty good, just... boring. What's your guys most fun build/playstyles for old sparkead?

[patent mango]

greatsword

[upper galleon]

@near gale pre-hat'd ferret

[nocturne dust]

Most people find gunker/assailker/meleeker (all basically the same thing) fun. You could also try staffker.

[analog agate]

Assail is the only fun blitz. Smite is funnish if you use it sparingly to stun. BR is barely used unless you gotta take out a sniper/bomber/gunner.

[brazen burrow]

what is the rationale behind crack of bone?

[raven mountain]

That's my take on it. 3 points extra to spend how you will.

[patent mango]

scriers uptime and quietitude extra toughness gain

[brazen rampart]

Crack of bone is peril quell for melee, and if you're weaving ranged attacks and melee attacks like you should, you'll have excellent scriers uptime. I usually have it off cooldown by the time I hit 100% peril.

[marble crater]

Just because you can spam psyker blitzes, doesn't mean you have to spam them. I use BB maybe 10 times in a mission, when playing EK I might never use my blitz at all

[raven mountain]

Yeah, I only throw out BBs if I'm corner peeking or if there's something way tf out there I that needs solved and no one else is doing it.

[patent mango]

epic smite usage (never used in mission only for pathing)

[brazen burrow]

yes but I dont always want to quell peril right? because some of my dmg increases with higher peril?

[patent mango]

yeah but scriers uptime good

[raven mountain]

Well, one thing to keep in mind is your rotation. You won't want to melee immediately after scrier's ends because you want to keep your peril up so you can spam assail.

[patent mango]

its defo a choice if you want it but i like it

[brazen rampart]

Yes, but at the same time, you want to have time to stack up precognition. Scriers gets immensely stronger the longer you remain in it.

[raven mountain]

When scrier's ends, you dump all your assail charges (unless it's a monster or armor) because you're at 100% peril and have all your cleave/damage bonuses and it's free to cast.

Honestly, you might even be better off getting off of the bolt pistol and using a reconlas or heavy laspistol with Tranquility Through Slaughter to get even better scrier's up time.

autogun would work too, but I like my fire.

[brazen rampart]

Recon will help immensely with abusing empathetic evasion, btw. You can just straight up eat bullets and not care as long as you have things to shoot and ammo to shoot it with.

[raven mountain]

yeah, you ignore ranged attacks while quelling peril. And if you dump ammo into the horde, you build up stacks of Precognition for better scrier's.

You just lose a bit of your instant reflex shooting to kill flak elites.

[brazen burrow]

Wait a sec, usually when I start my gaze its when a horde is approaching and immediately dump my Assail (in order to start its regen charges)... at 100% peril I start whacking things (melee+range). Am I doing it wrong?

[raven mountain]

Yes

shoot or melee when you start scrier's

unless you absolutely need to

or are wasting your scrier's to get the 10s of warp immunity when you'r ehigh peril and need to spam assail in a pinch

You dump assail when scrier's is over

[brazen rampart]

In aurics, at least, I throw 2 or 3 darts into a horde when I pop scriers, then get to my melee/ranged weaving to quell it. Gets precog up faster.

[raven mountain]

because precognition gives you all those bonuses for 10s after scrier's ends, and you have Warp Unbound so you can spam all of them at 100% peril for free

There's some flexibility for situational stuff though

[brazen rampart]

By the time I hit 100%, the darts I threw at the start have regen'd.

[brazen burrow]

I dont understand precog to begin wth, what does "..counts as 1 sec in Gaze mean"? I want gaze to last LONGER, so why would I take a talent that reduces its duration?

[raven mountain]

gaze gets stronger every second

killing an enemy with a weakspot "adds" a second

So you get to max stacks faster

more reliably

[brazen burrow]

Ok

Why do you take True Aim and Surety of Arms? if I have to drop one, which one shud I drop?

[brazen rampart]

Drop surety of arms.

You only use that talent with shotguns and revolvers.

True aim means more EE abuse.

More headshots, more crits. More crits, less bullets that can hurt you.

[autumn lark]

Listen here

[strong gulch]

Surety is for niche builds.

True aim gives you reliable and known crits. That also means more uptime on crit talents and blessings.

[brazen burrow]

What weapons/blessings do you recommend?

[autumn lark]

Keep your peril below 100 whilst in scrier

[brazen rampart]

Begone, Noobato... 🚬

[strong gulch]

EE, mettle, perfect timing, hand cannon, proc crit strings, infurnus, etc

[autumn lark]

Im giving out good advice

[brazen rampart]

Force greatsword, I prefer mk8, but both are good, with carapace + unyielding, riposte + precog. Then recon lasgun, mk12 (the blue one), with flak + unarmored, dumdum + infernus.

[last shore]

Is that the cleave light attack with push stab one?

[brazen rampart]

Mk8 is push stab.

[last shore]

Yeah I prefer that one too

[brazen rampart]

Mk6 def has merit with its higher single target dps though.

[last shore]

People have diff playstyles

Also depends on your overall kit too

If your ranged can horde clear, you can go mk6 then

[brazen rampart]

"Keep peril below 100" brother have you been reading the conversation? He knows that already lol.

[last shore]

Or vice versa

[brazen rampart]

Smh.

[marble crater]

I forgot how painful checking the shop for curios was

[strong gulch]

Thanks for the reminder

[marble crater]

You are welcome, maybe the good karma helps with my curio selection in an hour

[ornate hamlet]

in my small amout of playtime all i have seen is people with recon lasgun blow there load in 2 mins not kill much of note and complain about no ammo all game mostly vets lol

[last shore]

Me trying to get +3 stamina on my newly made vet 💀

[autumn lark]

Use bolter

[brazen rampart]

That's recon vets for ya. Psyker gets around that by doing this lovely thing called "not being a giant idiot" and using assail mostly instead of bullets.

[marble crater]

Good luck

[last shore]

Bad players. Bad builds. Take your pick

[ornate hamlet]

i tried that gun but i love the bolters to much

[last shore]

Recon lasgun shreds in the right hands

[marble crater]

Vet yesterday was using recon las, I think at one point he was shooting for almost 2 minutes without reloading or something, it felt like an entirety for sure

[last shore]

High crit and shock trooper go brrrr

[ornate hamlet]

just looks like a expencive light show at a concert lol

[brazen burrow]

I dont understand the reasoning for getting such a fast gun... I can just use assail or my sword to clear hordes...for tough elites, I need a revolver or boltgun right?

[marble crater]

If that light would also burn and kill the entire audience, yea

[last shore]

Was he deleting every elite on the map?

[marble crater]

Pretty much, sometimes my EK and shriek was faster, but I had to fight for that

[brazen rampart]

Your sword kills anything chunky that wants to get close to you just fine, trust. You can legit oneshot a crusher.

[last shore]

Last auric mael I did. My teammates really loved shooting pox bursters on me that game

[brazen burrow]

so when do I use the gun?

[last shore]

I go to push it, they shoot it 💀

[brazen rampart]

The reason for the fastest recon is, as you said, for running ahead and dealing with shooters. Rate of fire directly correlates to how fast you can crit, and every time you crit, you become immune to bullets.

[ornate hamlet]

yes everytime

[brazen rampart]

So basically, you're immune to every ranged elite for as long as you have ammo.

[marble crater]

Bursters are the reason I want a "Sorry" voiceline in the wheel

[brazen rampart]

Genuinely, EE is the most broken node in the entire tree.

[last shore]

But yeah recon lasgun can be hella good

And have p good ammo economy too

[brazen burrow]

and every time you crit, you become immune to bullets
How?

[brazen rampart]

Infernus is also my go-to pick for actually making the gun kill things, because I can tap a shooter for half a second and he will burn to death by the time I acquire my new target.

[prime elk]

built-in ghost. actual insanity.

[brazen rampart]

Empathetic Evasion, it's in the middle of your tree, the node that leads to scriers here.

Any time you crit, whether with melee, ranged, or blitz, you become immune to ranged attacks for 1 second.

That means shooters, gunners, reapers, and snipers, physically cannot harm you.

[ornate hamlet]

just looked in zealot chat was going to ask yay or nye about flamer any good. but i dont want to go in there

[brazen rampart]

Nets and fire can still get you though.

[brazen rampart]

Flamer is op.

[patent mango]

dont go there its scary

[brazen rampart]

There's a pinned thing in zealout chat that tells you how to run it.

[ornate hamlet]

and what a bout the 2h chainsword?

[brazen rampart]

Evisc bad. Power crept like hell. Use relic blade instead.

Funnily enough, there's also a pinned thing in there for relic blade, too.

[marble crater]

Evis is fun and usable, other options are stronger

[silver mantle]

For the reason why, the special works when there is one elite

Falls apart when there are 50

[brazen rampart]

"Fun and usable" brother the light attacks on both models have a damage cap of 4 targets and mk3 literally deals less damage on a rev attack than mk13 chord...

It also has an inverted damage profile, the overhead heavy on mk3 deals less single target damage than the horizontal heavy.

[ornate hamlet]

thx for tips 🙂

[marble crater]

I used to play it with a crit build and perfect strike, you can cleave everything and keep maulers and crushers stagger/stun locked.
Can you kill them in the fraction of the time with other weapons? Yes.
Was it fun to do that? Also yes.
As long as you finish the mission and have fun who cares

[ornate hamlet]

will have to check the pinned out a latter date just dumped all my dockets? on my psyker weapons

[patent mango]

dude evis got both moveset and power crept

its so sad

[ornate hamlet]

yeah if your not having fun whats the point. also chain go brrr

[patent mango]

also its not even heavy even though its called heavy evis

[ornate hamlet]

i wont use it higher than difficulty 5

[patent mango]

i think its still decent with crit builds

otherwise idk

[weary crane]

The snow gear will look great with purga and shards

[ornate hamlet]

i just wanted to roleplay the priest from dawn of war

[patent mango]

i want evis to get the obscurus force sword treatment

new combo mor damig 🔥

[ornate hamlet]

i hope it changes for the better

[raven mountain]

I think I like the white fgs

[brazen burrow]

I am shooting with my recon lasgun, can someone explain what are these buffs?
I know the leftmost one is mettle, but the otehrs?

[weary crane]

Nah they needed to make it look like actual ice

[raven mountain]

right one is probably dum dum

middle one is probably warp damage on crit

[patent mango]

first is mettle 2nd is uh perfect timing (warp dmg on crit) and 3rd is dumdum

[weary crane]

Bro the icons are in the talent tree

[plucky flax]

Sorry it was me

[patent mango]

1st is more specifically mettle's movement speed increase

[brazen burrow]

I checked the talent tree, I didnt find the one in the middle

[patent mango]

that ones on top

[plucky flax]

I shoot all bursters ain't nobody pushing them in my game

[raven mountain]

It's literally the first two talents on the right

mettle+perfect timing

[brazen burrow]

yes got it

[brazen rampart]

Perfect timing is the 2nd one, that's warp damage bonus on crit, makes assail do more damage. Dumdum is the other one, that makes your target of your current salvo take more "close" damage, which includes the fire from infernus.

[patent mango]

average psyker buff bar with 300 buffs

[nocturne dust]

hows about

we just remove target cap

[raven mountain]

And I believe the "close" damage is 12m, right?

[marble crater]

Mettle, Perfect Timing and Deathspitter

[nocturne dust]

[patent mango]

that too

[brazen rampart]

12.5, yeah.

[raven mountain]

wish we had a more consistent reference for 12m

[brazen rampart]

It's dumdum, he's using the recon I told him to run.

[brazen burrow]

dumdum talent says "close range damage", but I am shooting from quite far and still get teh dumdum but so I wasnt sure

[raven mountain]

Youg et the buff

but the damage doesn't apply

[patent mango]

dumdum stacks from shooting far but wont increase damig

[brazen rampart]

Yeah dumdum basically exists to make sure your target burns to death.

[plucky flax]

Dumdum is based

[raven mountain]

dumdum is goodgood

[brazen rampart]

Because DOT's are considered to be 0m away.

[patent mango]

fr?

[raven mountain]

orly?

[plucky flax]

Dumdum infernos recon 12

[brazen burrow]

but the burn talent is infernus? not dumdum?

[plucky flax]

Nah even without infernus dumdum talent proc at any distance. See iag

[brazen rampart]

Yes, anoint in blood talent uses the same math.

[marble crater]

Ah I didn't see the second + behind the 5

[patent mango]

they interact

[raven mountain]

I'd test it in the meat grinder, but the last 2-3 times I did, meat grinder was an exception to the rule.

[brazen rampart]

Infernus lights them on fire, dumdum makes sure they die.

[plucky flax]

Dumdum just always proc

It's veri cool

[brazen burrow]

Ah, so infernus makes dumdum proc?

[patent mango]

nuh uh

[plucky flax]

Nah the bullet does

[brazen rampart]

You're looking at like, 300-400 fire damage a tick after your crit string is over.

[patent mango]

infernus benefit from dumdum damig but it wont stack the buff higher

[brazen rampart]

No, infernus just does fire. Dumdum is what is actually making you deal damage.

Fire on its own is like, idk, 200 damage a tick with a full crit string.

Dumdum just takes that and makes it do significantly more.

[raven mountain]

In meat grinder there is fall off as I get away from the reaper

in burn damage

[brazen rampart]

Thats... interesting?

[raven mountain]

and I'm keeping dumdum up on the shielder

[brazen burrow]

I understand that, but what makes dumdum proc when I am still physiucally not in close range? it must be proccing on "somethibng" being in close range (maybe the fire dot?)

[brazen rampart]

Oh yeah it only applies to the one guy youre shooting.

[raven mountain]

but like I said, the last few times I went to meat grinder to test something, it was wrong because meat grinder is weird like that.

[brazen rampart]

So if you burn a reaper and switch targets, he will stop taking bonus damage.

[patent mango]

this game is conchfusing

[raven mountain]

Tested it on the bulwark

as I back awat damage goes down

326 when close

down to 290 when I'm over by the items

[brazen rampart]

Shooting things in general is what makes dumdum stack up.

[hard pewter]

Just tried out the force greatsword with scriers gaze
Oh my God how have I been missing out on this??

[brazen rampart]

This may just be psykhanium jank then.

I see no issues with it in live lol.

[raven mountain]

So yeah. Shooting bulwark to get 12 stacks. Then shooting its shield from far away. Up close it's 326. Over by the poxwalkers its like 220 a tick

so maybe it's affected by falloff but still getting dumdum

idk

[brazen rampart]

Interesting.

[raven mountain]

or maybe it's meat grinder jank all along

And it goes back up as I get closer, lol

[clear heath]

Do you have anoint in blood talent?

[raven mountain]

no

[thorn cedar]

Dumdum is close range damage

So yes distance matters

[raven mountain]

ngl, I can't even find anoint in blood, lol

[cosmic sigil]

I am 42 . The secret is less alcohol and having a healthy routine.

[clear heath]

oh wait this is psyker chat

was thinking of a zealot talent

[raven mountain]

yeah, I had to go check

[cosmic sigil]

And by less I mean better alcohol too

[warped perch]

Hello Keet

[ornate hamlet]

right im off to actually go play darktide thanks again everyone for the tips/advice. wish me luck i get good random players

[warped perch]

Hello screaming mushroom

[clear heath]

hi stan

[raven mountain]

fwiw, dumdum does actually increase damage seemingly from wherever I am

[cosmic sigil]

It was bugged no?

[raven mountain]

266 fire dots with dumdum up, 251 when it falls off.

So if meat grinder is accurate (it's often not), then fire dot is affected by range falloff, and dumdum seems to work wherever you are because dot damage drops when dumdum falls off.

[marble crater]

aka. the better zealot chat

[earnest sand]

Idk if just me Everytime I see the dumdum blessing. I think of that one scene from night at the museum "dum dum give me gum gum"

[sudden willow]

that phrase is stuck in my head

eternally

[young falcon]

TIL what a dumdum is

[nocturne dust]

don't insult psyker chat like that

[young falcon]

"A hollow-point small-arms bullet designed to expand upon impact, inflicting a gaping wound."

[nocturne dust]

Uh, I think it's just being classified as close damage or not, and isn't falloff which is separate

[raven mountain]

But it goes down further the further away I get

[nocturne dust]

Like, if you remove dumdum then the damage shouldn't change

iirc

[raven mountain]

and when dumdum falls off, it goes down as well in a big chunk

then it stays the same for several more ticks before the stacks of burning start falling off too

[summer prairie]

it has falloff

[nocturne dust]

It does?

Is that all DoTs?

[summer prairie]

I mean dumdum has

also when buffing dots

[nocturne dust]

Ah

That makes more sense

[sturdy reef]

Voidstrike gaming in havocs on fatsgark twitch rn

[analog agate]

How are they looking with it

[sturdy reef]

Alright

No tech really

I think he knows how to quell cancel he just doesnt wanna do it on stream lol. Not sure the name of the dev

Angie?

[patent mango]

slopshark slop stream

[patent mango]

they seem ok

sliding n stuff

deimos gaming

[summer prairie]

0 peril gaming for him

looks like transfer peril void

[patent mango]

does that still work

with multihits

[sturdy reef]

Its havok 21 I think

[patent mango]

they're gaming actually

[south cedar]

Is empyric resolve worth it?

[patent mango]

lotta keyboard noises even

[patent mango]

depends

are you ok with being glassier

[south cedar]

I'll shall need to ponder upon this

[jovial juniper]

Build dependant

[south cedar]

Do i need to get more healing perks or is it beyond saving with that perk?

[strong gulch]

If you have high peril generating staves like EK or Voidblast, it's worth it for more casting.

[south cedar]

What about smite?

[jovial juniper]

Smite will proc soulstealer often so yes it usable with it

[strong gulch]

I don't notice the reduced toughness gen on EK.

On voidblast, I do feel it a bit if there are a bunch of shooters, but I would feel those shooters anyways. So the issue is solved with better positioning.

If you're really building into smite, then sure.

[jovial juniper]

Scriers EK with ER is one of the builds that feels the -Tg

[raven mountain]

I run havoc 40 bubble inferno with ER. It feels great for uptime on inferno staff.

But I don't run ER when I have shriek--takes too long to build up peril to dump.

[strong gulch]

I run ER with shriek on voidblast (trauma) and EK (surge / electro). I don't have issues with peril gen but I also spam the warpy things.

[patent mango]

lmao they got streamsniped by conan

hes getting closer

[buoyant maple]

Psyker base: glass cannon

With ER: broken glass, railgun

[analog agate]

Worth it though.

[patent mango]

on scriers its stinky usually

idk mayb electrokinetic scriers can use it maybe idk

[strong gulch]

ER on SG voidstrike is nice.

Otherwise with gun or melee, you have other options.

[patent mango]

its weird how people say stuff like "no way rejects get a meltagun" when we already got a relic weapon

[jovial juniper]

Not fast enough to use Soulstealer
Quietude though, pretty ok

If only expenditure was worth

[patent mango]

true true

[jovial juniper]

You could probably chase blue man

Or essence harvest if you're that desperate

[summer prairie]

not that it's surprising or new, but they just said that they want to fix staff (lmb?) quell cancel so it's not faster than normal chain times

[patent mango]

yippie

[strong gulch]

They haven't fixed fake +3 stam curios yet.

[patent mango]

that quell spam is stinky

[strong gulch]

So how are they gonna fix the quell cancel?

[analog agate]

Fixing primary lmb qc would be fine. Would make VB staff feel meh for rmb

[strong gulch]

I will be sad for VB

[summer prairie]

they could just make chain time to quelling longer or make it so you have to hold quell to reset the chain time for next lmb

instead of one tap resetting it

[analog agate]

I am all for them limiting machine gun fire on lmb. I don’t see it abused almost ever but it still feels wrong to use

[summer prairie]

I think the chain times were actually initially longer but they lowered them to make psyker gameplay feel smoother

[vernal temple]

It is done

[analog agate]

Nice

[vernal temple]

now I can go touch grass and do 1 havoc mission a week to get the remaining penances

[strong gulch]

I grow grass indoors. So I touch it anyways.

Also NOICE

[vernal temple]

all I grow indoors are cacti

can't really touch those

[white river]

is this a thing for anyone else? I have extra points despite having unlocked everything

[white river]

quitters talk

[vernal temple]

Yes

[vernal temple]

also yes

[strong gulch]

You CAN but shouldn't. I used to poke my grandma's cacti then pull the hair-like spike out of my fingers as a kid. Kids... or me as a kid. lol

[vernal temple]

the EK staff has 4 extra points, the plasma gun has 1 extra point and I can't remember what ogryn has extra points on. only zealot has no unusable mastery points

Me when I excited unboxed some cacti pads and completely forgot about the prickles.

[vernal temple]

lmao

[fiery stratus]

ayo

Psyker got the best looking helmet for cosmetics this time

now this is a treat indeed

[nocturne dust]

stole it from a stormtrooper

[fiery stratus]

the vet one looks terrible

heads gigantic like wtf

[deft stump]

There are grass squares that you can buy to walk on grass indoors.

[marble crater]

Just go outside, smh

[fiery stratus]

also the force greatsword skin is nut

https://tenor.com/view/thats-hot-busted-nut-gif-21810567

not is nut lmao

[deft stump]

I wear footwear then.

[fiery stratus]

the rebreather is kinda tempting too, but the goggles kinda look like poop imo

rip man

[strong gulch]

I was tempted by the rebreather, but 1) I gotta wait for muns and 2) It doesn't go with anything I have.

[strong gulch]

unit

[deft stump]

Nu, filthy. You know dogs and cats use it as their loo. Also ants and such.

[fiery stratus]

yeah really only matches the new set

not enough brightly colored outfits in the grimdark universe >:((

[raven mountain]

I almost out warpfired an inferno/bubble psyker as an assail/shriek psyker. 0.o

[fallow stream]

yes

[strong gulch]

Despite me growing grass, I'm allergic to it.

I grow it for my cats. I'm allergic to them too.

[fiery stratus]

Compromises 😭

[deft stump]

Is just sneezing only, RIGHT?

[raven mountain]

They got their parasites in you.

[strong gulch]

Gud decisions.

[strong gulch]

I get rashes, sinus headaches and other things but I'm on meds that help a ton.

To be fair, I'm allergic to everything that isn't meds and food.

[deft stump]

You have Toxoplasma Gondii or something in you then.

[strong gulch]

So I might as well be happy.

[deft stump]

I guess, but still.

[strong gulch]

sounds right

[marble crater]

At least you still have food

[strong gulch]

Ye. For now.

Stay away IBS.

[deft stump]

Instant? After new year, going back to that. SODIUM.

[strong gulch]

Also just kidding.

Have had allergies for decades.

[raven mountain]

How do you tell someone in a pug to smite 80% less

[brazen burrow]

why would u smite less?

[deft stump]

Even then, that parasite isn't really deadly... just makes you like cats more.

So cat can eat you but... That shouldn't happen, right?

[upper sun]

because it turns of the game for everyone else

[marble crater]

I'm so confused

[deft stump]

I might be the confused one.

[marble crater]

Yes

[strong gulch]

On dodge talents and blessing become unusable, a lot people use it in a way they keeps enemies spread out, and like clad said, it turns the games off.

[marble crater]

Don't bother, let them play and then just start the next mission. Not worth it

[strong gulch]

This is my fault because my only option to kill crushers was devil's claw parry, but the smyker made it so it took a lifetime for me to kill 1 crusher (on the ogryn event) because I couldn't use the parry.

[deft stump]

I mean, better to not get mad over it and just move to the next asap.

[fiery stratus]

i do wish the bottom of the psykers body piece wasnt so poofy

[autumn lark]

most likely done to avoid clipping

[sturdy reef]

The havok helmet and chest on zealots and vets clip in

Unplayable

[fiery stratus]

i still havent gotten anything other than the legs

need like 20 missions or something

[muted grove]

Is there ever any advantage to using wall over bubble? I feel like logically bubble can’t be beat so is the wall a little stronger maybe?

[marble crater]

You have two walls, they stun all specials that walk into it, so it's great for mutie waves or burster waves

[hearty wolf]

You've got to prioritise eliminating the Psyker first

Target priority lesson 1

[strong gulch]

u right

[marble crater]

Two charges are also good for stacking kinetic resonance for BB, if you ever want to play a machine gun BB build

[jovial juniper]

One you put down and stay inside
The other you play 4d chess

Walls are also pretty good for BB builds

[sturdy reef]

Walls for mutant and hound mods tbh

You can use it in high intensity shock troop as well

[raven mountain]

Because smite is all about staggering and controlling groups. Inferno staff did nearly as much stagger, and 5x the damage. I was on inferno+bubble btw, not shriek.

Additionally, you don't need to smite 3-10 random enemies. Just kill them. You don't need to hold smite on 1-2 ragers. Start it, push them, kill them. Also, if you smite and hold, the lightning hits enemies further away, and suddenly your fire psyker and zealot can't reach new enemies without advancing out of position. If enemies get close to the fire psyker, they melt.

The primary use cases for smite are:

1: Armor/rager trains.
2: Quick build up of peril to shriek through a horde.
3: Hit pause so someone can res.
4: You're in a bad place and you need an adult.

[primal plume]

Psyker has an actual fucking helmet

And not some tube shit

[nocturne dust]

illegal

[raven mountain]

You're right. I did have to stop and explain why we don't just run ahead alone after we had to deal with horde+monster+captain down 2 people because 1 was already dead, and the other ran forward and died trying to res alone.

I couldn't help myself on that one.

[marble crater]

Yeah sometimes you need to say something.
Playing on console has saved me from a lot of arguing, really. Writing takes too long

[raven mountain]

God, I couldn't play this on console. Mods aside, I've heard the controller mapping is oof.

[deft stump]

Just stick with Sutv solves things.

[marble crater]

Yeah... I solved most of it by having two back buttons and remapping some buttons with the software from the controller.
Default just sucks

[deft stump]

You pick between ping/tag or dodge.

Knives are basically unuable.

[marble crater]

I can do both

[deft stump]

By that, i mean throwing knives.

[raven mountain]

yeah

[marble crater]

Dodge on A

Get out of here

[deft stump]

Why VT2 is unplayable.

Or ehm, masochism cata gameplay on controller, no dodge, just block.

[raven mountain]

The most annoying thing about vt2 to me was that any hit from any enemy is like taking a smack from a crusher in havoc 40.

[deft stump]

BUT, now you can't dodge.

HAVE FUN.

[silver mantle]

Tbh laughed my ass off when 2 storm vermin oneshotted me on legend

[upbeat kestrel]

ah the classics

that stormvermin were actually dangerous

and maulers arent

[silver mantle]

Anyway 3 more ubersreik to level up

[upbeat kestrel]

who

[silver mantle]

Done kruber and kerillian

Need to do bardin, salt, and sienna

[upbeat kestrel]

start with the one you dislike the most

of the 3

left

[silver mantle]

Bardin is already 21

[upbeat kestrel]

maybe other carriers will suit you

huntsman kruber my beloved

[silver mantle]

Kerillian sucked because sot ult is useless before 30

Grail knight punches way above his weight

Tbh though all of them seem fine enough for me

I also think I can solo 90% of the missions on veteran which should get all of the careers up to the late 20s

[upbeat kestrel]

oof

i leveled saltz on legend

[jovial juniper]

Black rat pushed me right at the start of Waystalkers ability
Cancelling it and putting on cool down

[upbeat kestrel]

loife

have saltz execute the elf

[ornate hamlet]

EKS is pretty fun

and it’s pretty good

[fiery stratus]

@primal plume definitely check out the chest piece, the bottom of the jacket looks like its constantly getting wind blown up it

[little pine]

The best Helmet for psyker is now available

[muted grove]

your build sounds interesting , any more info?

[raven mountain]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9e1837e6-549c-487d-8e83-e673ea82f7cf/my-fire-bubble-2

That's what I run in high havocs. It's not fully standard.

[muted grove]

Hell yeah thanks for laying it out

Dying to try out bubble/wall but haven’t found a build for it yet

[raven mountain]

Most people put down Empyric Resolve, but I like it when I don't have shriek. It gives a ton of uptime on staff. And Wildfire isn't terribly impressive when you're already pumping out fire stacks, but more fire = more warp charges = faster bubbles.

I don't take One With the Warp, which is a pretty standard take, but thats just me relying on me to not need it.

I opted into Essence Harvest because of how fast and often you get warp charges. It's a nice bit of toughness generation just for doing what you already do. But I don't actually watch my toughness, so I'm not even all that sure just how much uptime I get.

[marble crater]

With quietude and mettle I have enough toughness regen. I also value toughness lower in havoc, because I either sit in the bubble or my toughness is gone right away anyway

[thorn cedar]

or someone brought gold toughness

[azure parcel]

experienced psykers - does it make sense to use Voidstrike staff with DD?

or am I just trolling trying to play such a build

[muted grove]

im having a moment, where tf is quietude on the tree lol

[marble crater]

For many it's the go to keystone for voidstrike

[marble crater]

Top, second from the left

[muted grove]

thank you lol i was remembering it being lower

[azure parcel]

I see, thanks

[marble crater]

Maybe thinking of Solidity?

[azure parcel]

and what's the dump stat on Voidstrike?

[marble crater]

Blast radius

[azure parcel]

cool cool

[analog agate]

This headgear will make me not use the other best headgear as much. That’s nice.

Side shout out to the billion glasses headgear too

[azure parcel]

ok time to try this and hopefully not be a burden to my team

[shut crypt]

How well does Wildfire work with Inferno Staff?

[analog agate]

Well

[tepid python]

home...

[analog agate]

Thicc

[azure parcel]

damn why does voidstrike staff charge so slow

and generate SO much peril holy

[sudden willow]

but it absolutely bops

[analog agate]

Tis the reason I am not a fan of voidstrike

[wind spruce]

It really doesn't generate that much peril

[azure parcel]

feels like more than purg

[wind spruce]

Without assail weave it's painfully slow to build up peril for shriek tbh

[azure parcel]

idk if true

maybe it was a bad idea to use bubble with it instead of shriek

[wind spruce]

Well purg generates the least peril

So that's not saying much

[azure parcel]

ohh ok

[wind spruce]

Best void built (except remove souldrinker)

[gloomy gazelle]

I just want to set the world on fire

[azure parcel]

thank you!

[muted grove]

what exactly does precognition do for the ds34?

[jovial juniper]

More Weakspot/Crit damage

[thorn cedar]

there's a ds34 now??

[wind spruce]

Basically nothing

[pure dragon]

Unlocked n Loaded 2

[wind spruce]

What

[pure dragon]

Just a lame joke on there being ds34 now

[latent hill]

So what’s our thoughts on the cosmetic greatsword?

[muted grove]

Y-Y i have fat thumbs lmaooo

i wish rat were here

[fathom adder]

Dueling Sword Rule 34

[deft stump]

Isn't that how they work? Duel each other with flair?

[fathom adder]

If you hate the look of the Mk6 it's pretty good. Still got some gold on it but not bad. And normally I hate that sword blades are painted but it's bright enough to just look like bright metal if you don't look too closely

[latent hill]

I personally like that it looks like the blade is made of ice

Also… How can we witches swing those things with such ease yet the relic blades for the fanatics are harder to swing for them?

[deft stump]

Psychic powers... Well, Telekinetic.

[fringe garden]

The description of the weapon when it was released did say that the psykers use their power to make swinging it easier

That's a for sure thing

[near gale]

I love it

[earnest sand]

Psykers are buff gymbros that's how they just have sleeper builds

[snow kayak]

Ok so any advice for beginners for this class? I love the mage type in games but I'm having a skill issue with this class coming from the zealot class

[fringe garden]

Uhhh, get incredibly good at dodging and pushing

[deft stump]

Is it the, anything touches you and you go blep?

[fringe garden]

That's really the first thing you have to do to play psyker at higher difficulties

[snow kayak]

Idk I need to look at a build or something I feel so weak idk maybe is a skill issue from me but I think the psyker class looks cool af

[sudden willow]

It plays a lot differently to zealot tbh

[marble crater]

Which level is the psyker?

[round blaze]

I recently got my psyker to 30, and I've put a billion hours into zealot, Ogryn, and vet, and psyker has def. been an adjustment for me. Does definitely feel fragile and way too squishy

[snow kayak]

I'm still leveling it up but I'm at 21 atm
