DD?

[strong gulch]

DD is a keystone on the right.

[pliant sage]

defy destiny

[young cliff]

disrupt destiny

[strong gulch]

It marks some targets in a blueish outline.

[pliant sage]

I thought it was defy lmao, I am a little stupid

[jovial juniper]

https://tenor.com/view/tobiasfunke-davidcross-bluemyself-funny-phrasing-gif-3570523

[charred cipher]

ohhhh actually i dont eveen know i jsut put this melee build together first one using it, i always use warp siphon, and i used DD way back when i first played but been so long i had vision back there lol

[young cliff]

potatoe potato

[charred cipher]

i ahve been most successful with vet this time around, using mark and the mdo with sites is fucking amazing

[strong gulch]

If you do find that DD is helpful, it's not a complete waste to use it on staves. DD still gives a damage boost.

[young cliff]

DD is really powerful, give a lot of damage but doesnt have the skill reset potential of warp siphon

[charred cipher]

i will keep that in mind been playignw ith lots of builds

[pliant sage]

you could always go zealot flamer and never have to worry because everything is gone

[charred cipher]

my prefereed builds this time around and most succsess have with with vet , recond las burn spamming, the ability spam crit zealot support, and electrotcute staff psyker with auto rupture, all pretty easy to play aggressively defensive lol

[steep loom]

dds awesome on voidstrike

[marble crater]

DD with surge is funny

[charred cipher]

i just built and mastered my voidstrike staff too , was pretty terrrible with it lol i mean ic oudl succesfully play 4s but 5s were ugh barely could get through maelstrom 4s

[strong gulch]

@charred cipher If you use a screen reader and we type in a way that makes it hard or impossible for it to work well, please let us know if you have the energy for it.

[charred cipher]

i think electro staff just so easy caus you can whip around without aiming efficiently still just rips

i can see discord chat okish lke the only app i can use for chat still i have a dedicated 40" monitor for it

and its blown up huge af lol

i sit in front of a 43" like 1.5 feet away from games

im hoping to get an upgrde at some point befor ei cant see it, but only cause my main monitor is stuck in a versin of night mode so it has some bullshit orange hughe makes everything harder to see

[strong gulch]

rude monitor

[marble crater]

Yeah that sounds annoying if you don't want it. I have that as well but by choice at night, I want to say the program is flux?

[lethal plover]

after playing a day I think the game is in a good state rn.
I will just wait for the content drop like genestealer

[marble crater]

So you will be back in a year

[patent mango]

cya after silksong releases

[copper jay]

What is your zealot build ?

see u in 4 years

[patent mango]

rain world 2nd dlc will release before genestealers

[charred cipher]

sorry was in a test game with that psyker build which il ove, and DD is amazing actually lol

[copper jay]

You dont have yo ! Bolt gun is not taking too much Time to get ?

[charred cipher]

huh?

[copper jay]

Bolt pistol is 15 Ammo ?

[charred cipher]

i only use the bolt pistol for chasing stuff or quick pops , occasionally if im overheated in a bad postion. build is like 90% meleerarely if ever need to pick up more than 1 ammo with this build

i really ust use it for quickdraw and attempt headshots on snipers

[copper jay]

Do you have some tips to master the relic blade ?

[buoyant maple]

which one

and why're u asking in psyker chat for it lol

[charred cipher]

i thin im trash im not the vest one to ask 🙂

and yeah sorry respondign in psyker 😦

[copper jay]

The topic just popped 🥺

[patent jacinth]

Drop the HP node under the 10% attack speed and get Second Wind

Its one of the best talents in the game

[copper jay]

I dont know, what is the best one ?

[charred cipher]

u are right 😄 forgot i did that was playing around with it lol tryign to figure out how much i use second wind

[patent jacinth]

Also, why aren't you taking Until Death

[buoyant maple]

#zealot-class message

[charred cipher]

yup sorry no more zealy boi in here

[patent jacinth]

Drop the extra Chorus node (its bad) drop Desperation (its not good on relic blade) and get Until Death and Holy Revenant

[copper jay]

Psyker is way more fun in Havoc and Auric

[pliant sage]

Images taken right before disaster

Said disaster

One of them dragged a crusher over to us, mid slam because they didn't dodge properly

[marble crater]

Your first mistake was being a full psyker team without a single shriek

[prime elk]

oof

literally the first enemies on the map

[buoyant maple]

did yall get wiped in the first encounter lol

[prime elk]

psykers getting turned into pancakes by overheads

https://tenor.com/view/cute-adorable-duckling-haha-classic-gif-17283485

[pliant sage]

Absolutely

It was qp

[buoyant maple]

[pliant sage]

So dropped down to see some moron dodging backwards against a crusher so it moves forward and slams into our craniums

[prime elk]

qp best play

for shit like this

always so funny watching pubbies

[pliant sage]

I was running bubble and stuff for the penance when it happened

in the grim darkness of the future there is only

[torpid bough]

the class chat i'm usually in can't keep toxic chud wingus out their mouths for more than five minutes at a time so i live here now . any funny blessing combos for the illisi i should try?

i wish the obscurus h2 had a little bit more cleave, then i would exclusively use that

[buoyant maple]

slaughterer over riposte for illisi imo
obscurus can flex between them

[patent mango]

i always go slaughterer uncanny on fswords lmao

damig

[torpid bough]

its funny abusing EE in hordes ):

[deft stump]

Zealot, I guess.

[pliant sage]

I think zealot chat deserves a longer slow mode

[patent mango]

19 hours slowmode

[pliant sage]

more tbh

[patent mango]

how is this green

at least its better than this which makes literally 0 sense lmao

[torpid bough]

if you interact with someone that's banned from the discord you should be banned too

[patent mango]

unless you somehow get 5100 penance points at like level 1

[prime elk]

don't think about it too much lol

[patent mango]

im a psyker!! it whar i dooo

[pliant sage]

I am more worried about why they are banned cause I dont know

[torpid bough]

yeah wonder what it would take to get banned from the warhammer discord

[patent mango]

a peace hammer

[proper osprey]

[patent mango]

this guy just melted into a puddle

[brazen rampart]

Run obscurus with slaughterer and superiority. :)

Also on scriers.

You will be oneshotting a lot of stuff you otherwise wouldn't and scriers will help you brute force carapace.

[potent echo]

Am I being trolled or are red weapons real

[sturdy reef]

its a mod isnt it?

[blissful solar]

it's a mod

[lethal plover]

it's a mod that shows your favorite weapons as red and "sainted"

I too thought it was some kind of rare event loot

but yeah this isn't a loot shooter anymore after they gave us so much freedom over items

what was the point of all the RNG smithing near launch, no idea

[prime elk]

POV: you're the guy who blows up burster in my face with your trauma staff

and then calls a vote kick against me when i call you out for your shit play

[strong gulch]

[lethal plover]

[inland ice]

I'm with zek

[prime elk]

if you don't understand basic trauma staff etiquette, don't play it

simple as

[inland ice]

bro called out a random for making a mistake

[split lance]

just dont get close to a burster...

[inland ice]

https://tenor.com/view/soheb-saucelessss-gif-23665203

[split lance]

especially when you know ur teammate is using trauma staff

[prime elk]

maybe don't trauma the burster lol

esp when i tagged it

i'm a zealot

[split lance]

throw ur knife at it first then

[prime elk]

can't when it's a mixed horde

[split lance]

bible it

[prime elk]

bruh

who plays bible outside of havoc

[inland ice]

maybe this why psyker didnt see it

[prime elk]

no excuse. i tagged it

[inland ice]

sounds like you got too excited over a mistake to me

a little overzealous if you will

[prime elk]

[inland ice]

grr no excuses in darktide game grr!

perhaps relax

[prime elk]

i'm ok with mistakes

but own up to it at the very least

[inland ice]

so you are the owning up police?

[prime elk]

instead of kicking the guy you fucked earlier lol

[inland ice]

pump n dump

[prime elk]

next time a teammate bursters you in the face by being a moron, and vote kicks you, you'll remember this conversation

[plucky flax]

[torn kernel]

aw fuck i forgot to do havocs last week

[torn kernel]

just had a smyker trigger 3(THREE) deamonhosts over the course of a mission and kept smiting 💀

[potent echo]

If I never open my havoc tab I remain 40 forever

[lethal plover]

the dev letting smite target daemonhost is quite a funny move

[quartz barn]

Gotta punish braindead players somehow

[lethal plover]

they say the dueling sword is broken
well my wrist after playing it is certainly broken

[mental rock]

why? it's not particularly hard to control

[lethal plover]

left click

[mental rock]

so... like every other weapon in the game, gotcha

[lethal plover]

the duelling sword swings much faster

kinda like knife, but actually clearing horde

[mental rock]

I mean you could try to take a ranged weapon that clears horde to actually complement the insane single target damage the duelling sword brings. psyker has no shortage of good hordeclear. you could also just use the full auto mod

personally ive never had an issue with left click spam on DS

[quartz barn]

You dont really use ds for hordeclear, the whole point is that it onetaps pretty much every elite and special except for crushers and bulwarks

[split lance]

ive never been vote kicked

[rugged cairn]

Time sink

[lethal plover]

I now remember why I installed the auto swing mod when I played last time

[torn kernel]

something's wrong here

[lethal plover]

What is wrong

On screen it's kline and yet it's Nux in the list

[torn kernel]

aw fuck i mistimed the shot

um

4 dudes visible

+me

there were 5 in the mission

[torn kernel]

Nux is there their name is just covered by kline's True Survivor

[vernal temple]

had this happen before as well

and another one

[quartz barn]

Bot name?

[vernal temple]

Dickot. It's always Dickot

[quartz barn]

Watch dickot be another scuffed uk name

[vernal temple]

this is probably my fav screenshot of bugs in this game. poor brute spawned in the mission without any weapons equipped

looking at my stats, this was a havoc mission

[rugged cairn]

I’m thinking of getting full auto and keep swinging

[thin finch]

Do not let the green juice stop you from doing what you like

[rugged cairn]

Or unga bunga 🤔

[thin finch]

wdym , a full auto mouse or gun ?

[rugged cairn]

Mods

[thin finch]

we are psyker tho, we do not "unga bunga" , we unga therefore we bunga

[rugged cairn]

Make life a bit easier

[thin finch]

yeah, many people enjoy many hand pain from having to click click click click click click click

[rugged cairn]

I first need to level all the psyker staves.

Voidstrike seems pretty fun.

[patent jacinth]

It’s the most fun staff

And the only one that runs right tree effectively

[thin finch]

it is the jaclk of all trade staff

[vernal temple]

Trauma and Surge staves are bets and I'll die on this hill

[thin finch]

Trauma is crowd control and mass murder while Surge is " fuck you in particular " staff

but I don't think there is a 'bad staff" rn

[rugged cairn]

Oh. I went left, left, middle

👀

With a wee branch right for 10% weapon speed.

[vernal temple]

Surge can also be a mass murder staff if you don't mind making a LMB spam crit build with Scrier's Gaze

[patent jacinth]

It works fine either full left or full right but hits bigger numbers right side

10 seconds of 100% peril with 30 stacks scriers and 15 stacks DD is hard to beat

[rugged cairn]

I only play heretic difficulty. Since I need to learn that I’m not tanky on psyker.

Last year I made switch to zealot. And it slaps.

[marble crater]

Stinky zealot

[rugged cairn]

But psyker with the warp magic is fun.

[vernal temple]

just need to control the initial peril buildup. occasionally you still pop despite Warp Undound

[patent jacinth]

I just play psyker like hybrid zealot

[quartz barn]

This just means you attacked too fast, you need to wait a sec once you reach 100%

[vernal temple]

yeah, that's what I've started doing and never popped ever since

once I see peril above 95% I stop for a second, wait for it to hit 100% and then continue

[weary crane]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9e484242-08d6-4ddd-8d48-b33fc4b0e986/test-39?l

Funky build but super fun

[copper jay]

Someone has video clips of female loner but with voice changer ? (With a helmet ?)

I like the personnality but not the grating voice

[marble crater]

You can disable the voice changer in the settings, if that helps at all

[copper jay]

I want to enable because I dont like the original voice

[marble crater]

Ah, I thought you don't like the voice changer voice

If the helmet is in the shop there should be a preview for the voice?

There is for the helmets for dockets

[deft stump]

I think the filter might be different though.

[marble crater]

So test it with the correct filter, when the helmet is in the shop

[deft stump]

That's probs why they are asking. So know to grab the snow helm or not and such.

Anyway, gave up on LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean. Crashed too much to bother.

[marble crater]

Anyways, you can test the voice changers in the game before buying the helmet

[rugged cairn]

I want the Aelus II damphelm.

But I’m what you can consider. A slow child.

[deft stump]

@blissful solar Much lost progress, too tired to bother. Used every fix available, no diff.

[blissful solar]

is it an old game or something?

[blissful solar]

yeah looks like the game is broken on pc, even with a directx wrapper (dxwind, it seemed to help at least one dude, though he too still crashed). could try ps3 emulation, it's marked as playable on the rpcs3 compatibility list.

[zealous mango]

Bro

Telling me how to practise before doing mael smh

[blissful solar]

you? how do you know he meant you and not the dude with almost no dmg?

[zealous mango]

The rest of the lobby joined late through the mission

Everyone ragequit through the first half except me, they probably were judging my psyker level

[lethal plover]

Trauma knocking down crushers when team is cornered is the difference between life and death

[thin finch]

you could jusgt smite them

[lethal plover]

the ability of trauma to handle bulwarks and crushers is too good

[thin finch]

y control when kill ? (this message was sponsored by smite hater)

[lethal plover]

trauma indeed kills everything

it feels kinda too meta

[thin finch]

you can choose between fire for trash or armor piercing (forgor the name) for big guy

[plucky flax]

43 mins seems rough

[zealous mango]

Not bad I would say, it was enjoyable but rough with the director

[plucky flax]

[lethal plover]

The RTX in this game
Is it just me, or it's really unoptimized compared to other games

[blissful solar]

no one in their right mind is using raytracing in this game

[lethal plover]

Because it doesn't change things that much?

[blissful solar]

mainly the performance loss, but yeah, it's also very hard to notice. darktide doesnt exactly have things that make raytracing pop or useful (not many reflective surfaces or large moving lights or anything of the sort)

[weary idol]

spireside does

[marble crater]

Not like we have time to appreciate the great level design and lighting while fighting for our life

[weary idol]

sedition gamers

[young falcon]

The warp slash on force gs is so good.

Even without it being full it'll stagger anything that isn't a boss or ogryn.

[rugged cairn]

I like the head pop grenade ability. But blitz seems good for CC/Support.

Since in most pugs I’m in. The headpop is too slow.

Only when the rest ran off it’s a good lifesaver.

[young falcon]

BB at least lets you lock on to a target and you can keep using it in cover. Useful if you wanna poke out and tag gunners and snipers.

I still prefer assail though

[deft stump]

Is old LEGO game, but crashes more than most old ones. Like, I crashed 7 times of the first stage in the middle part.

[quartz barn]

Where did you get it from

Because if this is an unmodded version its bound to crash

Wait you can just buy it on steam

[summer prairie]

sure you can but not like they've fixed it

[blissful solar]

yeah the game is actually broken ive heard

[summer prairie]

dxwnd can make almost anything from directx era work, but it has like a million options

[blissful solar]

presuming that the ps3 emulated version doesnt crash as much, or at least that it has save states that you can spam, that is probably the better way to go

[quartz barn]

I mean it doesnt look like the steam version is broken

[summer prairie]

the guide page specifically has guides with crash fixes

[quartz barn]

Prob something specific causing the crash then, not too uncommon

But ngl i wouldve expected more negative reviews if the crashes were that common

[hasty silo]

darktide has a diet raytracing on that's on at all times

[quartz barn]

Because right now most reviews from the past week are positive with 30+ hours played

[hasty silo]

even if it's deactivated in the settings

you have to manually edit that manually in the config

oh wait

wrong game lol

[blissful solar]

darktide has global illumination on at all times unless you edit a config, i think

[quartz barn]

Meanwhile games that actually require tinkering (ashen for example) are sitting at mixed because people just assume its broken

[summer prairie]

older games get free positive nostalgia reviews even if they don't work well because people buy them, write a review and barely play them

[hasty silo]

so true

[quartz barn]

Thats why i mentioned playtime

[blissful solar]

me reviewing my favorite emotional comfort game without much critical thought because it makes me happy

[quartz barn]

Cant really have 30h when its broken

[summer prairie]

there are fixes after all

[quartz barn]

True

[hasty silo]

just buy the gog version

if it has one

[quartz barn]

And these are steam reviews

Not everyone is gonna check for fixes

Like i get your point when you already have to tinker from the get go

And at that point it will always boil down to "used to be great but doesnt work anymore"

[blissful solar]

well

the lego game pcgameswiki thingie specifically says the game is mired by crashes BUT is finishable

there's probably some convoluted network of fixes you can put together that fixes some % of the crashes. only deep analysis could possibly know what %

[drifting steeple]

i am currently pondering

mostly how to achieve certain psyker penances

there are a lot of words but i cant flick back and forth to check what certain things mean

[glacial vapor]

What penances are you having trouble understanding?

[drifting steeple]

im not sure what warp charges are

i know they're accessed by the tree, on the left side

[glacial vapor]

You need to have the left keystone selected in the talent tree. It builds warp charges

[drifting steeple]

i also dont know what prescience is

its more me wondering for warp battery

[glacial vapor]

One of the psyker Aura's

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/abilities/kinetic-presence

[loud girder]

does this actually change anything? feels like the only way to stop this game from tanking frames in auric missions with gazillion mobs is to disable all the cool gore effects that tank your cpu perf

[hasty silo]

yes

about a ~30 fps increase on 7900xt

[loud girder]

damn what the hell
how

how's the visual difference

[hasty silo]

the game gives you a seizure sometimes

but otherwise its a good deal

[drifting steeple]

and perils of the warp is the moment you hit 100% and could explode yourself upon usage of the next warp ability

[glacial vapor]

For warp battery, kill elites and specialists to build and maintain your max warp charges. Don't use your combat ability during this time or it will spend them. I did it first time the other night, it was fine

[loud girder]

i tried playing the game with med to low settings with all fancy effects disabled and it looked too ugly for me lmao
game may not have the most advanced graphics but i like the art style enough to trade having higher frames

[hasty silo]

i dont think it noticably changes the art style besides the lighting looking a tiny bit different

[loud girder]

i meant the other settings, put everything on low and the game is noticeably less sharp and uglier to look at

[glacial vapor]

Yes

[drifting steeple]

now this is going to be a dumb question, but elites are like, flamers, snipers, gunners?

oh no those are specialists?

🤔

[cosmic sigil]

Can you post pictures? I'm interested

[broken carbon]

those are specials

[cosmic sigil]

Gunners are elites

[broken carbon]

elites are maulers, gunners, ogryns, ragers,

[hasty silo]

specials are enemies that spawn on independent time intervals while elites naturally spawn in as ambience like hordes- minus scheduled spawns during events like interrogations

maulers, crushers, ragers, shotgunners and gunners are elites

[blissful solar]

um, maybe. the game is mostly cpu bound so it probably barely matters at the times when you'd want the most fps

[cosmic sigil]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/enemies?type=ELITE

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/enemies?type=SPECIALIST

[blissful solar]

idk about you but my game almost looks fullbright and like shit

i dont even know why i do this to myself because it barely helps my fps at the most trying times

[deft stump]

Steam.

[hasty silo]

i havent had that, but sometimes the lights flicker and it hurts my eyes

[glacial vapor]

For warp battery, just kill anything that has a name appear in the top left when you kill it. You'll just get it from playing the game. No need to try too hard

[blissful solar]

yeah, i suppose it's not all the time. only some places are really weird

[drifting steeple]

one more thing

disrupt destiny

[deft stump]

You can idle main menu for cards btw.

Also, each replay into a crash is like 15 mins.

7 runs.

[quartz barn]

Put the -dxlevel 90 command in the launch options, see if that works

[deft stump]

I already had that from the first crash.

Like i said, did nothing.

[blissful solar]

play the ps3 version :3

[quartz barn]

Not sure if this will affect it, but you can try having dgvoodoo run in the background

Dont think itll interact with steam apps tho

[drifting steeple]

oh

i know what disrupt destiny is

[loud girder]

i like this game enough to consider splurging on a 78003dx and a new mobo

[deft stump]

any fixes, even 60hz Vsync on didn't help.

[loud girder]

cause 5900x is somehow not cutting it

[blissful solar]

just wait until the 10800x3d or some shit. then....then maybe it'll run super well...

[loud girder]

78003dx should crush it
if the game doesnt run well with it then nothing will

[patent mango]

i thought darktide's performance was bad but the bar gets way lower every ue5 release

[loud girder]

lol UE5 games are outright broken

[quartz barn]

Hmm what if you run either the .exe as admin, or run steam as admin and then boot it up

[blissful solar]

nothing will indeed

[patent mango]

lmao

[deft stump]

I already tried giving it that, no diff.

[patent mango]

do you guys use dlss 4 on darktide

[blissful solar]

i believe so

[patent mango]

https://www.reddit.com/r/DarkTide/comments/1idzuso/psa_how_to_enable_dlss_4_this_works_for_dt_and/

[loud girder]

i swapped it through nvidia app and it made the game looks noticebly more sharp

[patent mango]

it helped a good bit

[drifting steeple]

i want more loadouts so i can pick out the minutia for my builds!

[patent mango]

theres a mod for that

[blissful solar]

DLSS 4 actually runs worse but since you can use performance and it looks like quality it basically runs better

[loud girder]

yeah balanced mode looks as sharp as previous quality

and perf mode is very much useable

[blissful solar]

DLSS 4 is OP

[drifting steeple]

brb installing dlss 4

[blissful solar]

too bad the game is held back by cpu. but at least frame generation helps with that lol

[patent mango]

90% of cpu usage goes directly to the flamer ai so they can kick air

[loud girder]

cant use frame gen cause im stuck on a 3000 series card

but i probably dont want it anyway
dont need the input lag when trying to dodge a trapper

[drifting steeple]

spent more time in the menus than playing the game

[quartz barn]

Ye honestly dont worry about not having frame gen

[analog agate]

Dlss4 is incredible tech

[quartz barn]

In close quarters like darktide its not too bad but it hurts open world games when theres a big gap between your actual fps and target fps

[analog agate]

And you really don’t notice frame gen

[quartz barn]

Only if your actual performance is ass, then the video quality drops pretty hard

[rugged cairn]

Assail isn’t that useful against carapace. It’s very satisfying to pop 3 crushers after a peek one by one.

[drifting steeple]

my bf says assail is easy mode

[brazen rampart]

It is.

[drifting steeple]

but the fun i have with indicates im sick in the head

[blissful solar]

true and true

[fathom adder]

Smite is easy mode, Assail is far more respectable

[proper osprey]

Kinda

It depends on how you use it

A lot of people think it’s a primary weapon

[analog agate]

I’d say the only build psyker has that isn’t easy mode is melee build with smite (using like Exploits). Psyker in general is easy mode in the game

Even a BB build you still use inferno staff which is really good in normal

[drifting steeple]

im people

[prime elk]

https://tenor.com/view/mr-bean-thumbs-up-gif-13684011490947959172

[patent mango]

my specific hecking build lmao

[drifting steeple]

which blitz is best for warp battery

[analog agate]

You usually go with BR if you go left side

[weary idol]

doesn't make a difference as long as you don't use your ability

[glacial vapor]

Depends more on the rest of your build, rather than the penance itself

I'd recommend avoiding anything peril heavy, like electo staff, so you're not tempted to use venting shriek lol

[drifting steeple]

ive just been using normal ass weapins

sans force swordf

Oh I thought they were talking about the end node on the keystone

[drifting steeple]

i could go blitz and hope my team generates warp for me

[molten prawn]

Does anyone else not really notice sciers damage increase feels like most breakpoints are the same

with the force greatsword at least

[clear heath]

I don't use scriers on fgs for pretty much that reason.
DD is enough

[molten prawn]

You can manage perils better as well

[clear heath]

yeah i can maintain high peril more consistently for warp splitting/unstable power and ditch wrath for havoc more easily

[glacial vapor]

I use scriers on FGS to intimidate the heretics with maniacal laughter, rather than actual damage

[prime elk]

heresy

[prime elk]

you use SG for the extra damage, i use SG for the movement speed boost

we are not the same

[molten prawn]

i mean i was pretty much becuase that part feels good

[clear heath]

ngl that's a legit reason
wish i had that speed

[patent mango]

use sg for the voicelines

[fathom adder]

I use SG for 10 seconds of (usually) consequence-free warp shenanigans

[molten prawn]

i like it with crit electro staff stuff

[drifting steeple]

69/120 seconds but i disconnected mid match

i need to sleep but i need answers

[fervent cape]

hey guys, im new here, where i can get some good starter build for psyker ? (just reached max lvl)

[proper osprey]

What weapons do you like to use?

[fervent cape]

surge staff and void staff

both of them looks nice to me

[patent mango]

which void staff

ig voidstrike actually

i think both of these you'd mostly go left side

voidstrike might b better to use disrupt destiny keystone tho

[narrow herald]

Smyker

Develop the worst habits imaginable

[patent mango]

help!!!!!!! help me!!!!!!!!!!!!

[narrow herald]

Smyker is soo funny because either it's just pure cope or pure sleeper easy mode

No in between

[prime elk]

It's funny having a pause button on the game

[flat shadow]

Every smyker I see brings it into nurgle blessed maelstroms

and then die to green bruisers because they don't know how to dodge

[patent mango]

smykers just bind every button to smite

[flat shadow]

The worst part is that I still manage to die before them every time

[narrow herald]

I think we scared the new guy away 😔

[flat shadow]

So I can't complain or they'll just be like erm you died first

because you were smiting a green flamer while I was getting beast of glaggled!!

[patent mango]

mentioning smite is like freddy fred fastbear jumpscare

[plucky flax]

Just had a smiter in my last game.

[flat shadow]

Maybe they're just making a smyker build

[plucky flax]

He was OP saved us a few times.

#nosmitehate

[flat shadow]

Smite is very strong when used right

[patent mango]

slop

https://tenor.com/bQ6Zj.gif

[flat shadow]

When it's used wrong best case scenario the match takes 39 minutes longer than it needs to be

[patent mango]

lets gooo

[narrow herald]

What would even be considered a "starter psyker build"? 🤔

Every psyker build I play I press 2 buttons and everything dies

If I see one more "bubble smite support" build on Gameslantern I'm actually going to snap tho

Hang on let me just SCREAM into the Void

[patent mango]

psyker fell off...

[narrow herald]

Looks like we lost em for good 😔

Another new player turning to the gameslantern side

[analog agate]

Inferno build would be starter imo

And then a smite shriek can somewhat be. It kinda relies on positioning but the mechanics are really easy

[marble crater]

Smite

[narrow herald]

Me when I see a smyker with no vent in my lobby:

PG smyker new meta

[copper jay]

Why do you hâte so much smykers ? Maybe do you only hate Bad smykers ?

[plucky flax]

I love them all.

Haters be hating.

[clear heath]

hate them all

[plucky flax]

[summer prairie]

all builds good

[fathom adder]

A good smyker will make the game boring, a bad one will develop bad habits. I try to only use it as a situational CC tool but the temptation to lean on it every time there's an elite train coming in or a poxburster I can't see is too real

[clear heath]

all builds bad

[copper jay]

But this is working in Havoc 40 ?

[clear heath]

play with no tree starter weapons only
as the emperor intended

[fathom adder]

Yes, it works, in some cases too well (i.e. making the game boring or being used as a crutch) which is why it's controversial. If Smite was just plain shit, there would be no controversy

[night garnet]

what do you guys use as a dumpstat on voidblast?

[oblique zinc]

I use warp resistance

[night garnet]

.

[oblique zinc]

But could also use charge rate as

[night garnet]

o rly

b/c the charge is already fast?

[oblique zinc]

I didn’t use the stuff much

Staff

But yeah u got warp flurry

So the charge rate is high

[prime elk]

Well you should prob be running blazing trauma

So you wouldn't take warp flurry

And in general you wouldn't dump charge rate on any of the staves outside of m1 cheese bullshit

[strong gulch]

Even with the flurry rending shockwave varient, dump warp resist on trauma/ voidblast.

[analog agate]

⬆️

i found this one for example, is it good ?

Just kidding

Pretty solid

You got two single target weapons and smite for horde clearing

It's on games lantern, how can it be good

[clear heath]

this hurts the more i look at it

[strong gulch]

It's working correctly then.

[clear heath]

fire themed build but no perilous combustion
no psykinetics aura
reality anchor instead of precog...

[strong gulch]

Fire only from sword. Precog will make horde die faster from slashes.

They need to live so dump damage and finesse. lmao

[clear heath]

i see 4 points of pathing that pretty much exist just to grab empyric resolve

[strong gulch]

yes

[clear heath]

incredible

[strong gulch]

Truly incredible

[clear heath]

people here argue about whether it's worth literally 0 points because they're pathing past it anyways
meanwhile we see a build dedicating 4 points for it

[jovial juniper]

Idk
Look at it

[quartz barn]

we need more trap builds

or better yet, make a spliced video of said build and act like its super op 3mil dmg

[fathom adder]

https://youtu.be/xSZ9xkiBywc?si=snm_RCqKoyd34uAt

"Add more incorrect descriptions, more nonfunctional talents"

[copper jay]

The easiest and cheesed build of ALL Darktide would be Inferno + Smite Psyker ?

[analog agate]

Just smite in general. You would pair it with EK just to take out a single guy here or there. But you would be 99% using smite/shriek all game

[marble crater]

Inferno and smite in one build is redundant and not great, they do almost the same thing

[vernal frost]

unless the server crashes from enemy counts

[jovial juniper]

Inferno them

I just did an auric with 3 infernos and 1 smyker

We did it but ...

Where was the fun ?

[fiery stratus]

[jovial juniper]

Along the way

[copper jay]

I feel tainted

And 3 of us had the bubble

[fiery stratus]

Anyone wanna do mostly melees maelstrom?

Absolute bubble overkill

@patent mango Do you wanna do the mostly melees maelstrom

[copper jay]

I lost my previous voidblast auric so I put inferno for my next game ...

[fiery stratus]

Traumas what I've been using, I should try some of the other ones. Pretty sure I have a voidstrike build

[copper jay]

When I play Psyker i'm with an other Psyker and no Zealot, WHen I play Zealot i'm with others Zealot 😔

[fiery stratus]

Class based Matchmaking

[copper jay]

But personnalities of Zealot are BORING

(I dont want to hear anymore "Sibling" after this game)

[patent mango]

ok

[fiery stratus]

Everyone just uses Fanatic I think

[patent mango]

i use the one that goes BLOOD FOR THE EMPEROR

i fogo which

that is

[copper jay]

Fanatic I think

I use Female Agitator

[patent mango]

lol

[copper jay]

Because she sounds like pretending to be a zealot and this is funny

[patent mango]

i just went for the one i thought was friendliest to ogryns/psykers

idk

[fiery stratus]

Now that I think about it, I barely hear the male Agitator i think

Loooot of people use fanatic

[patent mango]

agitator sounds silly

mines defo fanatic

[fiery stratus]

Got your code ready when you load up

[patent mango]

i'll load in eventually

There are walktrought in Auric/havoc40 from psyker using voidblast (or anything not Inferno)

[analog agate]

?

[fiery stratus]

trauma with bubble people use

[broken carbon]

do you mean if there are any

[fiery stratus]

rending i think

Might be this

[analog agate]

Havoc 40 builds are different than aurics

[fiery stratus]

P sure thats havoc

I stole it out of here the otherday

[marble crater]

That's rending yes

[copper jay]

Yes ! I like to learn by watching

[marble crater]

and also havoc

[copper jay]

If there are any videos

[marble crater]

You can watch AgentChaos on youtube he will have plenty of voidblast videos, and maybe also Beans

[analog agate]

This is Agent doing one

https://youtu.be/NuPV1yqgOuY?si=_rvHfonjpaWD5vHN

I think I have probably done the most but I don’t take videos

[marble crater]

I can't, because Xbox, otherwise I would upload my gameplay for people to flame me

[strong gulch]

Yeah, if you want really good gameplay of trauma/ voidblast, @plucky flax is great to watch.

I am not as good, fast, nor aggressive as Agent, but if you just want more footage of trauma/ voidblast in use, here's some of my high havoc rending trauma play.

that stagger is too silly lmao

[strong gulch]

It really is.

I can't believe there used to be no stagger icd.

[copper jay]

Holy moly, this is fire VB ?

[buoyant maple]

flurry + rending

fire VB doesn't build flurry and wouldn't charge this fast

[copper jay]

so old man is inferno I guess ?

[buoyant maple]

most probably yea

[strong gulch]

That trauma/ voidblast is cara + flak and flurry + rending shockwave. Old Man Fondue is inferno.

But PC is doing work here. PC is perilous combustion.

[jovial juniper]

Bro was on a blood shower for a second

[strong gulch]

3 SB (soulblaze) stack applied in 3m area on killing a special or elite. It keeps stacking on itself and is only capped by the gloabal 31 cap.

[wispy bay]

Cumbustion is one of the most fun and powerful nodes imo.

[strong gulch]

I wish I had the debuff mod going so I could know how many SB stacks were up.

[verbal thistle]

atleast 2

maybe 3?

[strong gulch]

default is 3

[analog agate]

It was just funny cause I couldn’t see shit. I was just chucking shredders as fast as I could and randomly stabbing

[strong gulch]

Seeing was no allowed!!

If you died I am sure I would have gone down too. Yellow toughness kept us going.

[elder pasture]

is there a general dump stat for staves?

[jovial juniper]

Warp Resistance

Except VoidSTRIKE

That one's Blast Radius

[elder pasture]

i see, is a dump on quell speed bad then?

[jovial juniper]

Yeah it's noticeable

But you can probably pick Solidity and mitigate a bit

[elder pasture]

i see. so dump warp resistance... is this also the same for most of psyker melee weapons?

the force swords?

[marble crater]

For all of them, yes

[elder pasture]

tyty

[copper jay]

I have a real question

Psyker is so much fun. How do even play an other class ?

[marble crater]

You don't

[copper jay]

I tried to lvl UP other classes to lvl 30. This is really hard

[marble crater]

Leveling is a pain

[copper jay]

Zealot is so ... Boring

[elder pasture]

i loved zealot o_o

[copper jay]

And their banters too

[marble crater]

Zealot is fun

[elder pasture]

vet was probably the most boring for me so far. i havent tried ogryn

[marble crater]

Vet is the most boring, imo, because it's the most standard "shoot things" class

[elder pasture]

i feel like shout is cheating

[strong gulch]

I just play psyker. I did level up a zealot for when I want to play and am burnt out and want some thing different, but that is SO rare.

So I have multiple psykers instead.

[elder pasture]

what is the purpose of

[copper jay]

Screen them all and show us.

[elder pasture]

multiple of the same class?

[copper jay]

Maybe for dailies ?

[elder pasture]

there are dailies??

[copper jay]

But this is so easy to get max stuff

[copper jay]

Weeklies I mean

[elder pasture]

do you mean sire melk

oh ok

[copper jay]

Compared to Vermintide

[marble crater]

*Sir Milk

[elder pasture]

thank god.... i would hate to have another game with "dailies"

[strong gulch]

The first two were before shared resources, you couldn't change your character, and melk mattered more.

After that was me just being totally well adjusted.

[marble crater]

At least I have an excuse for having two psykers

[copper jay]

I bet they are all Seer

[strong gulch]

YES

[copper jay]

What is it ?

[prime elk]

That's crazy to me. You don't like going fast and having adhd gameplay??

[marble crater]

No mods, so I made two psykers to have more loadout slots

[copper jay]

What do you mean ? Relic blade is not fast

[buoyant maple]

zealot is more than just relic blade

[strong gulch]

DD and the mighty need to chase the shiny stack man.

[prime elk]

You don't need to play relic blade though. But you can still make relic blade pretty fast lol

[marble crater]

True, zealot also has evis

[elder pasture]

relic blade is the 2h sword?

[copper jay]

Yes

[elder pasture]

thats so fun too...

i like all the zealot weapons lol

[prime elk]

It's very satisfying

[copper jay]

I lvled my zealot only to play Chorus...

[prime elk]

Oh that's why

Yeah chorus is boring as fuck

There's a reason why nobody plays it outside of havoc lol

[marble crater]

Chorus is the zealot smite

[copper jay]

Bubble was not boring so I was like "lets discover another support spec"

[prime elk]

Good way to put it lol

[prime elk]

Support your team by murdering the entire horde with FOTF 🫡

[elder pasture]

what's the best way for psyker to deal with crusher/bulwark? and not duelling sword?

[copper jay]

Inferno

Voidblast

BB

[marble crater]

Run away and let the team deal with it

[copper jay]

Deimos H2

[buoyant maple]

melee

or VB

or VS

or EK

really depends on what ur build has

inferno doesn't do well vs crushers on its own, can cook bulwarks tho

[marble crater]

Burn their feet

[elder pasture]

do you use the M1 or the charged for the EK?

[strong gulch]

Note that FGS and force sword PA (push attack) can open up bulwarks.

[elder pasture]

oh shoot feet??

[copper jay]

My next question will be stupid : but How do you play a melee oriented class in Auric and Higher when there are so many gunners ?

[elder pasture]

ew...

[strong gulch]

charged

[marble crater]

[buoyant maple]

charged attack

[buoyant maple]

I'm gonna blow ur mind
https://youtu.be/Zdm-8MvLpUI

[strong gulch]

Positioning and also you can dodge slide to get into melee range.

Assail, gun, or even smite can make em stop so you can bonk.

[copper jay]

I have no worries for Psyker ! This is more for Zealot and Orgryn

[marble crater]

Zealot in auric is fine, ogryn too

And in Havoc you are inside the bubble 90% of the time

[buoyant maple]

@copper jay

[copper jay]

This is insane

[buoyant maple]

watch this as well

[copper jay]

The floor is like your second Home

[buoyant maple]

there're certain mechanics designed to counter ranged enemies

[strong gulch]

Always be sliding

[copper jay]

I'm really impressed

I guess my teamates saw all my stupidity by charging in front all these gunners

[broken carbon]

for crushers: knife, force great sword, obscurus, deimos, illisi (but mainly on a melee build), all staves except infernus, revolver, bolt pistol, brain burster, and probably a few others i’m forgetting

for bulwarks: force sword (and greatsword) push attack will open them, all staves, shriek,

[prime elk]

Another reason why people usually take fury. Turn your ranged enemies into melee enemies

[broken carbon]

uhmmm

there’s prolly more but

[patent mango]

veteran is really fun with the power fist imo

[broken carbon]

i am stupid

[elder pasture]

power fist??

how you get that

[broken carbon]

yeah it came out yesterday

it’s so much fun

[patent mango]

yea it takes over 1 hand so you can only use pistols in ranged

[broken carbon]

and the melta on zealot feels so good

they did it properly

[patent mango]

isnt that meta

[buoyant maple]

they're delulu

and the bolt staff

alongside a bunch of nerfs to the OP shit

this game is finally going to be peak

flamer brightness increased by 4 darktillion percent

dark levels playable

full ogryn rework will be fire

box replaced with rashun lunchbox all keystones replaced and 12 new talents 🔥

zealot getting a talent touch up that fixes all the worthless talents

no didnt u hear

they’re replacing box with a tungsten cube

I think you you nerf the ds it’ll not be good on anyone

just nerf it to A tier

And it should just stay where it is

[patent mango]

and not keep it so broky my lobbies have 3 ds users

[young falcon]

Whomst?

[patent mango]

its not a hard weapon to use either so idk why it'd be so strong

[patent mango]

zealot has a few talents fo it

2 i think

[young falcon]

Oh, the auras

[patent mango]

oh that one too

[proper osprey]

Holy rev and that one skill in middle

[patent mango]

i was thinky the 20% after damig and the one with the until death thingy

[young falcon]

I was thinking like literal "heres a piece of chiken, heal up"

[patent mango]

its so sad ogryn has no rashun talent

[proper osprey]

Nope the only “healing” one is beacon of purity

[patent mango]

or anythin rashun

[proper osprey]

I think they should buff the surge staff

[patent mango]

technically surge has a confirmed nerf

with the m1 thingy getting fixed someday

[proper osprey]

That’s good I’m glad there’re fixing the macro problem

But a buff to it would be cool

Letting it chain to 4 enemies or something like that

What is dump stat for mk2 heavy las pistol desu

[patent mango]

stability? i dunno it seems to shoot where i aim with 60%

better than half the guns

[upper galleon]

mobility

[young falcon]

Tenks

[patent mango]

nah mobility is good for it

[upper galleon]

like unless you have a slow melee that also dumps mobility, like relic, there is no need to dump stability

slightly less dodge and sprint distance is nothing compared to even better range of chaining headshots

[patent mango]

ok but like

does stability even do anything

it just shoots where i aim at 60%

[upper galleon]

during suppression state, and aim and recoil while moving

[patent mango]

though i do use fgs so having that extra mobility is nice

[upper galleon]

i mean relic dumps warp res

[young falcon]

Yeah, im going beeg sword

[strong gulch]

Path's guide dumps stability on on laspistol.

[upper galleon]

wait mobility also affects recoil? how did i not know this

[patent mango]

it do?

[young falcon]

Path has spoken. Written.

[patent mango]

i just like go fast

catch up to the stealth zealot

[upper galleon]

i've nitpicked path many times

but yea that's mobility

that's stability

so uhh idk

test it and make your own decision

[patent mango]

heavy las is super accurate though

[strong gulch]

The money saver is to go with whichever shows up first.

[upper galleon]

yes, and I don't like missing my chains on a far away reaper or something, or popping off a sniper or bomber at long range

while i'm also moving

and dodging, and sliding,

but i do not have the numbers for recoil and sway memorized

i'll be completely honest the numbers make me dizzy lemme summon someone @buoyant maple tell us about the recoil, spread and sway numbers

[buoyant maple]

stability

[strong gulch]

If you are gunna dump into a boss or use the gun for mobility or just want to go better with gun maybe dump stability then??

This is not my area so 🤷 .

[upper galleon]

if anyone knows and has a clear answer it's him

damn

[buoyant maple]

60 and 80 stability have like

[upper galleon]

https://tenor.com/view/ferret-ferrets-cute-cute-ferret-ferret-cute-gif-6237859641732984062

[buoyant maple]

no noticeable accuracy differences in hipfire

so running a bit faster is just nicer in the end

[strong gulch]

magnificent tbh

[young falcon]

Many thanks.

[buoyant maple]

moving spread is also better than moving recoil
on a gun with basically no recoil

for the mk X laspistol, dump mobility instead

because it actually has a small amount of recoil

I didn’t think I’d like psyker based on the initial ability but assail is a lot of fun

[prime elk]

tracking ice shards go brrrrrr

[north tartan]

I love the funny needles

[north tartan]

Trying to decide what gun i want to use, considering the bolt pistol, zarona, or semi auto vigilant

[lethal plover]

how do you counter the death grab from chaos spawn

[verbal thistle]

dodge towards tentacle (right)

[lethal plover]

anything a psyker can do to make it spit another person out?

[prime elk]

chaso spawn?

you just melee it

or stagger it

for BONs i think the shriek makes it throw up

[strong gulch]

For Cspawn, just get close to it.

For bonbon (beast of nurggle), they only thing psyker specific thing we can do is blast it with voidblast/ trauma staff.

[prime elk]

oh rip

[plucky flax]

I like getting tentacled like the funny anime

[prime elk]

which funny anime?

[brazen rampart]

And zealout chat is the one that "deserves slowmode" smh...

[fallow stream]

Go into psych with creature spawner mod and practice.

Personally I find baiting it and dodging backwards effective. It has a RIDICULOUS hitbox that extends to its sides with that attack. It does it off cd on a timer, for the most part, and is always one of the first few attacks it does when it spawns

[fathom adder]

Going backwards doesn't work well IME unless you have a weapon with really good dodges or are already far away (e.g. from baiting it). Going to your right (its left, the direction the tentacle winds up) is pretty reliable when you're close to it

[verbal thistle]

backwards doesnt work

its meant to catch that

dodge right

[fathom adder]

Even seems like when it pushes you into a corner so that you're unable to move, when it winds up for the grab you can dodge right and slide past it

[plucky flax]

Just get hentai'd don't be shy

[brazen rampart]

I believe with warp speed on scriers you can back dodge fast enough to evade the grab.

[radiant frigate]

hell yeah

[quartz barn]

Dodge backwards only works if you time the i-frame right

But ye its a sweep, so do a dark souls and dodge into it

[young falcon]

Anybody have footage of ideal scriers uptime. I dunno if I'm doing this shit right

[stark crown]

They dodged backwards?

Grab them.

[paper harbor]

mutant grab

[thin finch]

apparently, test required , you can use the special staff on the big pus bubble

[rugged cairn]

How does scriers mark work.

[thin finch]

the stack that goes up during scriers ?

[rugged cairn]

That’s it?

[thin finch]

I simply don'yt remember what they are x)

[rugged cairn]

And you just wait for it to finish stacking and do big damage?

It’s the right ability for psyker in the talent tree

[patent jacinth]

Scriers gives scaling damage the longer you can keep it active, which caps at 30 stacks

It’s just a mad scramble to outquell the exponentially scaling peril so you can hit 30 stacks before you pop as you retain them for 10 seconds

[brazen rampart]

"Mad scramble" just use a recon or laspistol with tranq through slaughter.

Recon with 35% or so crit chance + true aim and laspistol with 50% or so crit chance + true aim means youre shitting out tranq crits to keep your peril down.

[strong gulch]

WTF. Learning new things.

[patent jacinth]

Magdump scriers is lame and I was feeling dramatic

[strong gulch]

I hope this works in a mission and not just in the meat grinder.

[thin finch]

staff special, truly the goat

[strong gulch]

I CANNOT believe staff bonk has been the answer this whole time.

WTF

[thin finch]

weird because I heard it there (I think )

[strong gulch]

@nocturne dust @plucky flax @analog agate @marble crater Did any of you know that staff bonk special to the pimple can knock a teammate out of Bon??

I did not.

My world has changed.

[mental rock]

I knew

Ive seen a few people mention it before

[strong gulch]

Where have I been??

[mental rock]

also the staff special sweep has the most cleave in the game

[strong gulch]

I know about the silly amounts of cleave. IDK why it has so much.

[thin finch]

I think that's one of the many relic of the " melee weapon takes time to come out"

[strong gulch]

Like not infinite but why so much??

[thin finch]

so instead of switching to melee to block the angry rager

just poke his nose

tbh I want to see a Damnation run "poke only"

like 4 psyker using only poke and maybe primary staff

[quartz barn]

Lets be honest even with infinite cleave the staff bonk is a meme

Doesnt work against bursters because its both too slow and the push range isnt big enough

[thin finch]

cuz it does not push it just stun unlike the push block

So staff bonk has edge case uses (bonbon up there) but since you can pull out your melee and push block just as fast, yeah it's a meme now

[quartz barn]

Shouldve given it a vertical trauma blast

Bonus points if it summons small warp slashes

[plucky flax]

Yes it's big stagger but even regular melee heavy would spit your mate out when hitting the back

[quartz barn]

Agent can you make a shotty gunker video?

[marble crater]

Dude, 99% of the time I don't even remember my staff has a bonk special

[formal harness]

me and some of my homies finished a hi int shock troop with only staff bashes but

maelstroms are too difficult

[strong gulch]

How have I not known? I suppose it usually leaves right away after getting a snack, and if I melee it's sticking around.

[plucky flax]

Yeah but it's just not as good as bistol

Less ammo economy and worse 1 shot potential

Use bistol its better

[strong gulch]

I played some shotgun badly. Made me miss other guns, but I also don't know how to use it.

[marble crater]

Aim at heretic and shoot, as long as you kill heretics the emperor doesn't care if you use it correctly

[quartz barn]

I know but its for the views man

Monopolize the darktide build guide videos

[marble crater]

For that he needs to show his builds for more than 2 seconds

[azure parcel]

do people actually watch Darktide videos

genuinely asking

I didn't know the game had enough active players for that

[marble crater]

They do

[plucky flax]

Nah nobody ever watch

[jovial juniper]

Surety Shotgun special spam is the only true Shotgun Psyker

[strong gulch]

It's me. I'm the one watching. Weirdo behavior I know.

There. Now chadgryn can live with his proper post.

[nocturne dust]

Yes, but I'd rather let the swallowed turn purple

[marble crater]

If they didn't want to be purple, they would have dodged

[thin finch]

I mosly choose to run away when I get puked on

[jovial juniper]

Director, spawn a Beast of Nurgle and body block this player really hard

[vale vector]

I think i broke my sword :0

[thin finch]

Perfect sword

the elusive 100%

which btw I hate we can't reach 100% on the game and limit to 80, like to taunt us or some shit

[vale vector]

Yeah...

[glacial vapor]

As if duelling sword wasn't srrong enough

[thin finch]

na it's mid

[vale vector]

I mean 80 as the limit...when theres already a throw away, Why not set 80 as 100 and 60 as the new 80

This is...Everything else is updated, even in the fck hadron? idk how to spell it

BUT the sword

Even switching it out didn't...Like change it, Which is weird

Just upgrading it, IT'S Still 100%

Yo what the fuck

[thin finch]

what does the stats actually says ?

[thin finch]

it's already max, there is nothing to increase

[vale vector]

i just did it, It's Maxed maxed

Orgyn logic

[thin finch]

genuily wondiering if it's just visual or if the stats are actually at 100
