I prefer strike, but blast is stronger

Two different use cases and builds.

VB is aoe and CC

VS is single target for elites (sort of)

THANK YOU

#

I dont usually mind smykers and I actually like using smite, but if I ever see a guy on fkin havoc 30+ spamming smite on full shield captain miniboss and contributing nothing else I'm gonna shrek myself

hearty wolf
#

You deserve it if you like smite

uneven mirage

Well I do prefer to have my own opinion on things instead of repeating what the parrots say, yes

@hot hamlet @analog agate I crashed during the extract cutscene, but ggs this game gave me Dream Team thumbsup_ogryn

anything promised in the hotfix that wasn't actually fixed?

Get worse teammates, smh

i tried that once, they left me to hang on a ledge til i fell off

marble crater

#

"dont say teammates are bad"
teammates:

deft stump
#

THen you keep getting worser and worser ones.

#

And question how someone can manage to die 9 times in uprising.

#

So you go to EU to play with friends to be the worst player since 300+ ping gaming is as you can tell.

marble crater
#

All of that sounds very specific

uneven mirage
deft stump
#

Should I mention it was a Zealot?

#

A lvl 30 zealot?

#

HOW?

Zealots when you tell them to not rush solo into enemy horde and die

Rip that finale

lone ravine
#

id say do lower difficulties but then youre dealing with worse teammates

hearty wolf
#

I was processing what to do there

lone ravine
#

so its even harder

hearty wolf
#

All the outside covered by reapers and horde too dense to push it back methinks

#

Maybe just needed a good rhythm and hold inside

elfin grail
#

can anyone recommend an up to date assail build?

That one at least had a laser tho.

oh wait real dream team doesnt have a difficulity minimum

#

so sedition 🔥

deft stump
#

Will be boring as heck but it works.

#

If someone manages to die on that... I dunno man.

nocturne dust
#

That's why I was very not kosher with sitting right where all the gunners have a sight-line

hearty wolf
# nocturne dust Should've moved into the central area or up above

Up above there was reapers on either side, I'd have to kill one of them. Dunno if there was more either. Definitelty could have spent until death or ammo on killing one though. Other ranged trash makes it tricky

Central I didn't want to get surrounded but maybe it would be fine,.

deft stump
strong gulch
#

Yeah maybe centeral. I have never fought there, but it at least has cover

hearty wolf
#

I want ot simulate it again

analog agate
#

What map you talking about

hearty wolf
analog agate
#

Lower mid is where you hold off

#

We did it yesterday on 33

hearty wolf
#

We're talking about what I was supposed to do when I was solo

analog agate
#

If you had t hammer? I guess central pillars. But you are kinda screwed

hearty wolf
#

Reapers would have had line of sight if I picked either corner

#

And yeah I had thammer

analog agate
#

You would have to stay in central till they move to you

#

Easier said than done

strong gulch
#

Yeah. It was a thicc mixed horde so idk

hearty wolf
#

Might have been best to attempt a revive even. Shoulda killed at least one of the reapers with boolet

#

For some reason, I think reapers big tanky

#

it's true but boolet do big damage

#

We remember this for future

#

Oh well

#

It's because we started a day late

#

my google calender didn't recognise the start

nocturne dust
#

Very e z to deal with reapers when you can suppress them with kickback chadgryn

#

Getting surrounded as Ogryn is a dream tho, unlimited toughness pogryn

#

Just checked the recording

#

Steam Recording's audio is, uh, interesting

hearty wolf
#

Is it fucked again

nocturne dust
#

It's worse

#

Somehow

#

like, idk how to put this

#

I think I might just mute it before uploading

hearty wolf
#

xd

#

maybe steam is not the way

nocturne dust
#

I've been trying to experiment since it's been having trouble picking up mic audio

#

It's because I have Equalizer APO to fix my headphone volume

#

At least I think it's Equalizer APO related

zinc phoenix
#

Man the difference between a team that is totally clueless and a team with people who are solid is just so night and day. You go from being the only one killing specials and constantly needing to rescue people to just… smoothly going through the mission with no issues

nocturne dust
#

Oh wait, I know what it is

#

It's because my headphones have two channels for audio, and one has crap quality for nonsense KEKW_ogryn

#

when I fixed my audio it must've defaulted to that channel

hearty wolf

Ah.

I want to play more H40, but it seems extra stressful right now since everyone is afraid of deranking. Reminds me unfavorably of something like League of Legends' ranked queue

radiant frigate
#

havoc ranks are smelly and stupid because they're mythic+ keystones

deft stump
radiant frigate
#

most dogshit system ever conceived

deft stump
#

3 losses refreshes the current mission you have so you can try a different combo.

#

Also, add a feature where you can select from ANY unlocked havoc lvl to play.

radiant frigate
#

just make havoc its own playlist

deft stump
#

So if you just want malice HP but extra bs, you can play 1-10.

rich spindle
#

I like the Derank but 3 is too few

#

Makes me only want to party with the very very top % of players, which I guess is the point of havoc, but most times I just don’t play

deft stump

I've yet to see anyone like Derank

If you want higher stakes, just promise to delete your character if you lose

Time lost is already the punishment for normal mode, I appreciate the extra threat for the challenge mode

nocturne dust

Well, you're stinky then angymorrow

#

Does anyone know if brittleness can stack above 60%?

nocturne dust
#

It can't.

#

PF is the only brittleness that stacks above 40%

rich spindle
#

I see

nocturne dust
#

so, there's just not a source to go above

any havoc groups C:

ive got a 33 ---

ripe obsidian

#

does empyric shock apply from flame staff primary attacks? the skill that increases warp damage taken by victims of staff primary attacks?

nocturne dust
#

According to the patch notes at least

#

Not sure anyone has tested it tho

hushed egret
#

thinking to pair it with brain burst loregryn

nocturne dust
#

Hhhhhmmm, I mean Inferno goes with BB but by the time you stack ES you will probably kill the thing you're hitting or have enough time to kill it with something else.

#

Metawise, it's not a great choice, but if you want funny BB 1-hits you might be able to accomplish something in conjunction with other buffs like Scrier's and DD/EP.

#

though it won't technically be a 1-hit

hushed egret
#

well I'll also passively hit targets that I need to deal more damage to by controlling the crowd with the flame staff, and flame staff isnt exactly great at killing single targets. namely, monstrosities. also, new defense modifier in havoc Sitgryn

ripe obsidian
#

I think inferno might be Psyker's best monstrosity staff...

nocturne dust
#

It beats BB by a mile

hushed egret
#

wha-?

ripe obsidian
#

Soulblaze goes brrrrrrrr

nocturne dust
#

Soulblaze stacks up to 15 (16 if you crit on the last stack)

ripe obsidian
#

And with the Perilous Combustion change, you can pretty easily get it higher!

nocturne dust
#

Stack -> swap to melee -> stab while DoT does work, use uncanny if you want really big damage

#

even without uncanny, still very good damage

#

and still the best staff

#

and still better than BB

hushed egret
nocturne dust
#

BB's issue is none of its buffs last long enough for a boss

hushed egret
#

well shit. I never liked bb anyway so good excuse not to use it pogryn

nocturne dust
#

BB might win if it always had KR and EP, but it doesn't and those expire far too quickly.

ripe obsidian
#

Real talk, I use BB more in H40 than I do in any lower difficulty

strong gulch
#

and with the changes to quell, chaining BB feels so much worse

rich spindle
#

resonance BB seems to do higher DPS than penetrating flame +unyielding purg from what ive seen looking at the health bar mod

nocturne dust

and Inferno has limited range

😔

#

Positioning, saving your team ammo, dealing with specials/elites when all the chaff is dead or burning

BB is basically the 'well, I can't move from this spot and I got nothing better to do' option

Helping deal with the shooters that are blocking progress

nocturne dust

Only ones that stay out of range require BB

ripe obsidian

rich spindle
#

that's ok

ripe obsidian
#

But I like nexus more because fire

nocturne dust
#

You would need both EP and KR on BB to beat a +unyielding+PF inferno, and even then, the buffs simply don't last long enough for it to ever be better

rich spindle
#

if you could make a video comparing the two, i'd be grateful

#

grate full

nocturne dust
#

I dun wanna Sitgryn

#

Sounds like work

rich spindle
#

sadly, I must trust my health bar observations then

nocturne dust
#

ew

#

I do have these old videos

#

The, uh, timestamps should speak for themselves

#

Of course, that's uncanny soulblaze going

#

I'm not going to bother with grabbing a non-uncanny video, that sounds like effort. iirc it falls around the 1 minute mark

#

Also this is without PF, if I'm not mistaken. PF would be stronger.

#

(then the 1 minute mark, it's not stronger than uncanny soulblaze since they largely do the same thing and uncanny is way broken in that regard)

#

120% rending go bbbrrrrrrrrr

rich spindle
#

thanks for the videos

#

I'll have to get the mod and try it without huge melee weakspot hits on sluggy

nocturne dust
#

I mean, BB just isn't that good, ever. KR and EP bring it up to an okay level at the cost of most of your build, which is quite sad. A +unyielding EK would also beat BB.

rich spindle
#

thats ok

nocturne dust
#

Is not. Fatshark plz buff.

#

🙏

plucky flax
#

Yeh but KF op

rich spindle
#

now that I can agree with

strong gulch
#

Put KR and KF into base BB and give bb a transformative node that's actually big single target damage. If it's gonna be slow, then make it big.

#

Fatshark can even call it cerebral lacerations to make it confusing.

spice flame
#

or give a node that builds up soulblaze stacks with BB

thorny blaze
#

I'm trying to play my psyker with each melee/ranged weapon at least until I get them all to 20 Mastery, I got a few basic builds that I usually use for guns. For Autoguns I am kinda not sure what to go with: full gunpsyker with scriers or something more balanced like assail + shield dome?

The assail + shield dome I usually run with guns that are good at killing specials/elites quickly and just use my melee + assail to kill hordes. I don't think I ever should use ranged ammo for poxwalkers but it is kinda what the autoguns are designed ? Not sure. Any advice is welcome 🙂

#

This Axe any good?

#

This also seems pretty good?

dapper shadow
#

for the deimos IV, do you use the special attack or just charge attack enemies/bosses to death 🤔

dapper shadow
#

so just light heavy repeat for poke pokey

upbeat kestrel
#

I dont use deimos

steep crow
dapper shadow
#

you'd want damage to be at /80%

steep crow
dapper shadow
#

the greyed out which signifies the max % the weapon can have when you fully upgrade it

#

31/60% means it'll only be at 60% on max upgrade

#

dont need to worry too much pre lv30

#

if you do have an excess amount of currency you can probably pick one of those weaps up just to use it until you get something better later though

You can run it without (on zealot) by replacing it with shred but it’s sweep heavies have

What're the best curios (stats) to have on them?

marble crater
# steep crow What're the best curios (stats) to have on them?

For blessings you can do toughness, toughness, health, or toughness, health and stamina, or toughness, toughness, stamina.
It's very much personal preference, just don't use wound curios and make sure the stamina one has at least a 410 rating, because the others are bugged and don't give +3 stamina.

For perks you can do toughness and health, and then gunner resistance if you don't feel comfortable dodging them, sniper resistance is also helpful if you can't dodge them. Otherwise combat ability cooldown is universally useful

steep crow
#

E.g is the maximum amount of toughness/health 15%

marble crater
marble crater
#

You can use experience perks while leveling if you are comfortable with that

#

Otherwise I would pick health

steep crow
marble crater
#

Well it does KEKW_ogryn you can replace it with the tier 4 version of the experience perk and make the awful leveling experience go by faster

blissful solar

have a strong level 30 friend carry you through quickplay auric damnation

fossil snow
#

which would amp assail damage more

#

empowered psionics or warp charges?

marble crater
#

Empowered or Disrupt Destiny are better for Assail

fossil snow
#

I figured

#

i have a hard time mathing warp charges

shut marsh
#

Yeah I was gonna say Disrupt Destiny is nuts on Assail Psykers

fossil snow
#

I use DD too much is the thing

marble crater
hearty wolf
#

I think core building around assail is a mistake anyway

fossil snow
#

I like to make game feel gimmick builds

jovial juniper
#

Hehe funny bubble EP Assail

hearty wolf
#

Until they give BIG CRYSTAL

#

Brain burst bomb

#

What about a beehive grenade so Psyker can actually use grenades

#

You throw

#

Explosion 1 boom

fossil snow
#

like one of my builds is the most brainburst psyker I could come up with

marble crater
#

If you build around Assail with Disrupt Destiny you can also play melee or gunker, which is perfeclty fine for everything that isn't havoc

hearty wolf
#

Then little assail bees

#

Bzzz

fossil snow
#

elite reset psionics, fast pop on ability, two wall shields

#

its not the best

#

and no bubble sheild but its fun

marble crater
#

If you are good enough, auric is not difficult enough to require meta builds and you can do whatever you want really

shut marsh
fossil snow
#

im TRYING to make the most right click assail psyker I can but

#

my assail lore is kinda lacking

#

I dont know any blessings with weirdly good synerygy

#

I also wanna make a build that makes warp rupture good but

#

ive run into difficulties

marble crater
jovial juniper
#

However

#

In theory

fossil snow
#

I kiiiiinda have a really good horde clear setup with it and empowred smite

jovial juniper
#

No Respite could work with Rupture

fossil snow
#

the fast smite locks and cooks a wide array of bullshit

#

and once peril is high warp rupture (hopefully) hammers them down

#

originally it was just to maximize the damage of smite so i could make more heretics popcorn at once

#

but the ugly puppy nature of warp ruture enticed me

#

heavy horde clear isnt that rare either

#

but its all I could come up with thats sorta workable

#

if only it scaled higher

marble crater
#

I don't know, it's really just a worse creeping flames, it does nothing better than flames, so what's the point, it's not like shields where you actually get different uses for the different shields

fossil snow
#

im just trying to come up with use cases for it

#

I HAVE a creeping flames build and it fucks

marble crater
#

Use cases are surely the same as creeping flames, just worse? KEKW_ogryn

fossil snow
#

you know

weary idol
#

I mean technically if there's a horde of nemies missing 2/3 of their health (or more depending) then warp rupture will just kill them outright

#

Instead of in like 1 second

fossil snow
#

every single time I come on one of these to get perk advice for my GIMMICK GAME FEEL BUILDS

#

that are supposed to DO A SPECIFIC TASK BESIDES BE GOOD

weary idol
#

It still won't be as funny as double shield EP brain burst

fossil snow
#

I always get someone saying

#

hurr hurr but why dont you just use better talent its the same function but stronger

#

there is a really good reason I dont use creeping flames in my ''make warp rupture kinda'' fun builds

marble crater
#

No, I understand you want to make a gimmick build, my point is that there is no gimmick, because it's not different from creeping flames. Unlike double walls instead of one bubble

fossil snow
#

ah, thats fair

#

its more flames kills swaths of things right?

weary idol
#

flames just kinda do more damage to everything, and stack with other sources of soublaze, and have synergy with the rest of your kit

fossil snow
#

but if you get the health low enough with the smite and pop rupture it very specifically turnes everything in front of you into a blood mist

weary idol
#

Warp Rupture just kinda does damage, and less of it for no upside

fossil snow
#

flames doesnt do that

#

I wanna do an akira scream

#

flames just pushes them down and kills them

weary idol
#

I mean yeah that's half the reason I run smite builds is because the enemies exploding from lightning is funny

marble crater
#

Like they do the exact same thing, they deal damage and nothing else. If Warp Rupture had more stagger instead, or instead of a cone to the front it was a circle around the psyker then that would be a different gimmick

fossil snow
#

I do hope warp rupture gets changes though

#

like make it 360 or something

#

make it summon an allied deamon host at 100 peril

marble crater
#

I think everyone hopes thatKEKW_ogryn maybe the ogryn reworkd is a preview of things to come for the other classes

fossil snow
#

the ogryn rework DID kill my hp maxxing ogryn though

#

so that makes me sad

marble crater
weary idol
fossil snow
#

not as funny

#

because I dont get to ask the vetran how much health he has

#

and then laugh

marble crater
#

Oh they removed the hp node? KEKW_ogryn

fossil snow
#

all of em

#

and I had my trees made to dip each one

#

and max health curios

#

with max health blessings

marble crater
#

You took forever to die from dog pounce corruption

fossil snow
#

yup

#

fire too

#

and trapper nets

#

it was really really funny

#

had crunch and the revenge hit thing too so I just walked forward with the left mouse button held

#

very very slowly taking big swings

marble crater
#

Other than that Ogryn is in a better place now though, there must be a lot more meme builds you can make now

fossil snow
#

oh yeah no

#

I agree and am salivating

marble crater
#

They have almost double the talents KEKW_ogryn

fossil snow
#

I really need to revisit the

#

what's the highest possible %damage buff a psyker can have stacked

#

its gotta get up there by the end right?

marble crater
#

Gaze with 25 stacks of DD I guess?

fossil snow
#

I mean in terms of

#

taking every % damage perk you can

#

and figuring a way to fill all the conditions

marble crater
#

That might look very cursed, I don't want to think about it KEKW_ogryn
A normal gunker build should hit most of them, so that's a good place to start

weary idol
#

that's it

#

ike all of the absurdo damage boosts psyker gets are right tree

#

and they maintain them pretty regularly through gameplay

fossil snow
#

gunker should be able to pull ammo out of the warp

marble crater
#

Force gun that generates peril instead of using ammo, yes

fossil snow
#

even the reload talent was a godsend for warp rider ing

#

rememeber when psyker was the (arguably) weakest class?

#

and people considered gunker kickable trolling

weary idol
#

I'm ngl I think people were very wrong about psyker being the weakest class back then

fossil snow
#

look how far we've come

#

ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

weary idol
#

It's just that the absurd strength of the soulblaze build wasn't really realized since it wasn't necessary

fossil snow
#

og warp charges were a bitch

weary idol
#

Because the current meta psyker build right now was the only psyker build back then

A .50 caliber handgun is a handgun firing a bullet measuring approximately 0.5 inches (12.7 mm) in diameter intended with the task of penetration. Historically, many black powder pistols fired bullets with diameters well above a half inch. However, following the development of smokeless powder, the focus shifted to smaller-diameter bullets prope...

You know what would make assail sexy

#

If you could quick fire them without switching

zinc phoenix
#

The switch time is instant

#

The switch back time is instant

#

Do a push, switch to assail and barf some shards, go back to swording

marble crater
fossil snow
#

Yeah I haven't ever come up with a solution for that

#

I just know it's already very fun when you get into a melee flight with shards still in the air and have both going together

#

Maybe...... Holding the button is the right click?

#

It'd take a bit to get used to but

#

Oooh but holding middle click and right clicking could be icky

#

M a a a a the make it an augment blessing?

marble crater
#

Just to note, the only reason it would be fine is because assail has tracking. I play on console and without extra back paddles zealot throwing knives are borderline unusable, so holding for right click would be awful KEKW_ogryn

fossil snow
#

Yeah as soon as I pictured it it was disgusting

#

I like it as a choosable blessing infinity better

#

Even if either one is wishful thinking at best

You press the extra button and then the button for the profile, it's really not complicated or difficult KEKW_ogryn

Fix your settings then staregryn

So now I'm teabagging around.

You know what psyker really needs

an ogryn nerf

A blessing to turn assail into venom esque set play balls

lone wing

could go hard

fossil snow

The question is

#

Can teammates whack them

#

Because I have this vision of a thunder hammer zealot corner pocketing a gunner into hell

fossil snow
#

The more I think of playing pool with darktide melee the more I unironically want it

#

Can you imagine the snarky voicelines when you set a ball

long wharf
hardy coral
#

i feel like force pushing over a rager then using Soulblaze to eat the rest of its hp is considered bullying.

long wharf
#

If you've watched an ogryn OnlySlap a group of ragers, you know what real bullying is

analog agate
#

The explosion radius with VB, it being a bug or intentional, is such a nerf to VB lol

this isn't very darktide

is that a display error or something

Did they make ragers easier to stagger?

#

Feel like they ignore push a lot less than a couple patches ago

analog agate
#

They did change how ?explosions stagger I think. I know they changed how something we do does more stagger

#

I remember seeing something about it in the notes

lone wing
zinc phoenix
lone wing
#

muscle memory

#

ragers were not changed

radiant frigate
#

latest patch notes added comically large skill issues to ragers

radiant frigate
#

now they rage even more

lone wing
#

ah

radiant frigate
#

no I'm 100% bullshitting

lone wing
#

(they rage when you are outside of a certain range of them)

radiant frigate
analog agate
#

I don’t see anything in the patch notes after looking again. I personally think it has something to do with any explosion since my VB is hitting/staggering things WAY outside my radius

dreg ragers are babies if you abuse this knowledge

hardy coral
#

Hmm, weirdly enough if i combine Riposte with Blazing spirit on an Illisi Mk V and pair it with wildfire & perilous combustion, it does crazy dps, even better then pairing Riposte with Slaughterer. MonkaHmm even Ragers become a meme.

radiant frigate
#

i mean tbh, what kind of idiot goes for the Dual Rusty Sawblade on a Stick

deft stump
#

I get hit by muties if I don't dodge when half the map away.

radiant frigate
#

when you can just get a bigger stick

hardy coral
#

it is and yet its saved me from clearing an entire horde because wildfire is like, "i gotchu"

radiant frigate
#

just use inferno or voidblast and shriek to get a better soulblaze experience without sacrificing 2 blessings for almost nothing

hardy coral
#

im using Scrier's Gaze because its a Surge ball spam.

#

i just did 800k damage on an Auric Maelstrom with it too, so its actually good.

radiant frigate
#

not really an indicator but ok

hardy coral
#

i mean to be fair, ive used Psyker enough to the point anything is decent in Auric Maelstrom, except the heavy blaze sword, i hate that thing.

marble crater
#

Heresy

deft stump
hardy coral
#

it is, but i personally just dont like using it since i dodge too fast sometimes which causes me to then jump instead and i get smacked.

deft stump
#

Rebind for one, Alt 1 for other.

hardy coral
#

i play controller, the controller im using atm is actually really nice since i can configure a bunch of things on it.

deft stump
#

Then rebind with third party.

#

Lifesaver btw.

hardy coral
#

i know, id do that if i used M/K with Darktide. ha

deft stump
#

No

#

Alt 1 is a controller preset.

hardy coral
#

ohh

deft stump
#

It puts dodge on left bumper

hardy coral
#

i havent even looked at the bindings in ages so didnt notice.

deft stump
#

So you don't get cucked by random jumps while dodging.

marble crater
#

Default settings are so bad Sitgryn

deft stump
#

Trust us, we both know how awful the default is.

hardy coral
#

already has 2000 hours with default settings catsushmm

deft stump
#

Alt 1 is like, dropping some weights because you don't get randomly cucked.

hardy coral
#

only time i checked was for Zealots knife

#

the knife throwing was ass on D-pad but then it never bothered me coz i dont use Zealot much

deft stump
#

Nearly everyone agrees it makes the game less clunk/bs.

#

If they added it to VT 1/2, I might play those again.

#

I always hated the jump/dodge on A.

deft stump
hardy coral
#

i actually do have 2 back buttons, ive yet to bined them.

deft stump
#

At the same time.

#

That would make Tknoifes easier.

#

If you were serious about using them.

hardy coral
#

i love this new controller though, its cheaper then the normal xbox one controller but has Hall effect everything so there's minimal risk of drift developing.

Sut uses the G7.

whats tragic about Controller Config 2 is the Crouch is on my right joystick and i cant bind the joystick press to my R4 button. POPOcat

Also, you can reconfig stick to back.

#

I literally have both my back buttons be stick clicks.

hardy coral
#

heck, im trying the GameSir software, im probably just stupid and missing something.

deft stump
#

Then realised there was a working app on the website.

hardy coral
#

ok yeah im just sleep deprived, its LSB and RSB. POPOcat

deft stump

XD

#

But yeah, much quality of life with Alt 1 rebinds.

#

Just need to forget on sceen button presses.

hardy coral

ive been standing here in the Psykhanium for 10 minutes doing nothing and my Kenetic Flayer is going off by wildfire, i havent attacked once in the passed 10 minutes. ha

deft stump

yeah but the fact im doing nothing and Wildfire has been proccing that entire time on the Specialists is insane to me.

THIS IS THE BEGINNING

anyone got a strong melee psyker build? I like to weave assail but if theres a better build without happy to try it

#

hoping to use the force greatswords

patent mango
deft stump
crude cape
#

looks like i was close

patent mango
#

yea i like warp speed cause gs bit slow

crude cape
#

i think the only change is +15 toughness instead of tranquility through slaughter

patent mango
#

u dont really ned assail pierce with warp split

plucky flax
#

No pc?

crude cape
#

i kind of liked tranquility bc i envisioned using crit strings on an columnus or shredder or something to keep skriers going and lower my peril

patent mango
#

nuh uh it wasnt doing that much

crude cape
#

but maybe its not needed

patent mango
#

its decent tho

prime elk
crude cape
#

Is lIngering influence for sure better than perfectionism?

patent mango
#

idk anymore

prime elk
patent mango
#

they might both be usable lol

crude cape
#

perfectionism means you'll be low stacks more often and have to build up i guess, but when you're stacked your top end is a lot better

#

the other is more consistancy

#

ill try both

jovial juniper
hardy coral
crude cape
#

how about ranged weapon choice? I always liked the columnus (old columnus) for skriers.
is the shredder playable now on high difficulties?

#

i know it got buffed

jovial juniper
#

They are trying to keep you away from all the bonuses of 25 DD

crude cape
#

what else would work with this?

patent mango
#

idk if shredder was buffed enough

crude cape
paper dust
#

What if they buff shredder

#

With 2 shredder

crude cape

#

i got sword fo that

i imagine a columnus auto rifle is just better

prime elk
#

Vraks is prob still stronger yeah

crude cape
patent mango
#

6 is mor fun

marble crater
#

Both are more fun

patent mango
#

and mk8 will defo get yourself exploded with scriers lmao

#

epic pa stab

crude cape
patent mango
#

pa stab on mk8 does big damig

#

but that costs like 3% peril

crude cape
#

ah

patent mango
#

idk if it costs peril if you miss the pa

prime elk
#

still does i think, but either way haven't found it to be an issue

#

i take warp unbound anyway

#

and bcob is fucking broken

crude cape
#

it doesn just tried it

patent mango
#

true true warp unbound might work now

crude cape
#

i do like the 8

#

ill try the 6 tho

prime elk
#

so even if you aren't really paying attention, the chances of exploding are very low now (from the PA)

patent mango
#

it didnt before i forgo that it got maybe fixed now

long wharf
#

wait the mk8 powered up does extra damage on heavy attack?

patent mango
#

yheah

long wharf
#

are you absolutely sure?

patent mango
#

yheagh

crude cape
#

is blowing up from the PA the only issue with the 8? or does the 6 still have better performance? someone said the 6 is more fun\

#

easier access to the stab is nice

patent mango
#

i just dont like to have to pa to do stab lol

long wharf
#

I'm jumping into the psykward right now to test this

patent mango
#

kinda ruins the flow or smth fo me

crude cape
#

are you just light spamming hordes on both

#

basically?

patent mango
#

mostly

#

mk6 is lllh for hordes

#

l spam works but is like slightly slower

prime elk
#

8 lights are very flat

long wharf
#

I prefer the mk6 fgs because of the heavy attacks and increased heavy damage

patent mango
#

8 lights are a lot safer

prime elk
#

i think 8's stronger on gunker, and 6 is stronger on staffker

crude cape
#

ok you use the vanguard diagnoal heavy after 3 lights? cool got it

#

ok ty

patent mango
#

but they seem to horde clear at the same speed

#

from my testing at least

prime elk
#

nah 8's def faster due to flat lights

#

better for BCOB, and better if you're fighting on a slope lol

patent mango
#

my testing was in h40 and with wrath

prime elk
#

the difference prob isn't huge though

patent mango
#

unsure if mk8 is faster if you dont use wrath

crude cape
#

Finally, is Seers presence really worth it for 10% cd when skriers is up pretty quickly and extra crit is good for this?

long wharf
#

OH

#

you're talking about Push Attack

#

not Powered Attack (special charging)

patent mango
crude cape
#

I had reposte, precog on my fgs, but i do play havoc so can see wrath being needed

patent mango
#

oops

long wharf
#

indeed

#

okay so yeah - special charging does not increase melee damage in any way

#

and you only generate peril on push attack if you actually hit something

patent mango
long wharf
#

on the mk6, you get the heavy stab as heavy2

prime elk
#

mk6 vs. mk8 heavies

#

/single target chain

long wharf
patent mango
#

spawned like 50 maulers

#

and used it

crude cape
#

last question.
is melee/gunker psyker viable in havoc 30+? I know it is if you're amazing, and im ok, but not "carry havoc with 3 other mid players" good.
am i seriously holding back my team not playing a more meta staff build? If so im ok keeping this build to AM

#

just unsure how groups are receptive to it in havoc

patent mango
#

should be fine though

long wharf
# prime elk

wait, you're saying the mk8 heavy stab is more damage than the mk6 heavy stab, even though the mk6 has higher base heavy damage?

patent mango
#

does the pa stab even show in stats

plucky flax
#

Mk8 stab always does more damage.

crude cape
#

oh, i said last question but 1 more. I see you use + carapace and + unyielding. Almost like an ogryn pickaxe.
is fgs maniac and flak dmg that good you dont need them?

plucky flax
#

But it's hard to access it.

fiery stratus
crude cape
#

I had flakiak on my FGS

#

but didnt test this, just figured

why does the mk6 not do more heavy damage despite the higher damage number on the stat block?

I'm not sure that's true

the "access to heavies" isn't an issue

deft stump
patent mango
#

darktide do be loadin

long wharf
#

doing a push attack is something you're going to be doing anyways on the big guys

#

which means you have ready and immediate access to the heavy stab on mk6

patent mango

oh my god why

and mk6 is better for hordes

#

maybe its the sword im not used to im j ust taking so much dmg lol

#

i gotta learn how not to with this build

nocturne dust
prime elk
#

People love playing psyker like they do vet or zealot and complain that psyker is too squishy

nocturne dust
#

The misconception is that Psyker can be tanky.

#

And you have fallen for it. 😔

#

Psyker's defense is active, and that does work as defense, but that does mean Psyker is squishy regardless

prime elk
nocturne dust
#

Yah

prime elk
#

Psyker survivability is just derived from slightly different sources than other classes

#

You should know that

patent mango
#

I HATE VANILLABUFF BAR I HATE IT I HATE IT

crude cape
#

my issue is if im not tanky, i want to be mobile.
and while the movespeed in this build is glorious, i feel so unsafe with this greatsword

nocturne dust
#

Toughness regen is great and all, but it's not tankiness and again, is an active form of defense

deft stump
zinc phoenix
crude cape
#

i know i would crush with the knife or DS, but those are boring now just overused em

prime elk
#

If you refuse to use the defensive tools that psyker gets, you have no right to complain that it's squishy lmao

#

It's like not taking iron will on vet

zinc phoenix
#

Also, don’t try to duel more than two crushers because you’ll eat an overhead and die

prime elk
#

And complaining vet is squishy

nocturne dust
zinc phoenix
#

Psyker has to be extremely careful about placement and position, there’s very little by way of passive defense in meleeker

deft stump
zinc phoenix
#

Axe will clean em up just fine

#

Ogryn can also eat crusher overhead without issue
