Then why is he complaining about ammo?
Bro flamed from the start pre lobby 
If it were the vet, is one thing.
But any half decent vet in havoc will run survivalist anyway.
It means they dook, everythingwise.
I switch to oggy and chill now.
Spam heavy and win so op. No one will flame me like I'm on psyker.
Can run any ability or blitz I want 
Too OP so...
every class should have this 🙏
awe
Other classes need buffs for it.
reducing tax nodes is pretty much a buff
how it feels to play psyker
But they aren't getting it so...
u dont know that
Vet needs a buff on everything that isn't shout. Also needs less tax nodes. Everything is taxed somehow. Zealot is Zealot, you know the 1.5x builds. Psyker just needs the ability to pick blitz and path.
vet doesnt have many tax nodes u just go down then right
you just want all grenade perks to be close to eachother
Assuming you only want kraks.
I want that and more 'nade perks.
but yeah i said all classes should be able to pick blitz like ogryn
finally we will see 1.75x builds on zealot once this happens
how i feel playing psyker
How it feels to play with a Gun psyker
-# Gunker refusing to share the bullets as they waste a entire mag on a lone pox walker
I just want more staff options
staff is nice because I can turn my brain off about ammo management
shockstaff im putting my adhd on overdrive managing the peril with it
my illisi sword and double barrel shotty build feels just right
Great when you have constant ammo hungry teammates
hey guys, can anyone help me with legacy penances on psyker? please
Which one?
ideally all of them, for the transcendent armor.
i got them all on zaelot, but want them on psyker as well
the only one i did some progress in is pick and mix
yes
can we have a discord call so its easier?
No need for call we'll just do a heresy until we find a monster.
I'm watching football atm.
allright
whats your ingame naame
Give me your fs code it's easier I'll inv
"Okay so look, folks, Darktide. You know it, I know it. It’s a good game. Very good, they say it’s one of the best—I think it’s one of the best. Incredible chainsaws, big explosions, very biblical stuff happening, the Emperor—he’s a great guy by the way, a little quiet, doesn’t talk much, but tremendous power, everyone respects him."
i support all forum shitposts
I believe you make 90% of them
🚬 i wish
i dont shitpost on the forum because the mods have an excel spreadsheet with everyones IP addresses
no point in making a sock puppet when they already know
Shitpost from an internet cafe
2000s called
They still exist
nuh uh
They do.
Remember the us is the entire world
If the US got wiped out, I don't think it would be a big deal
redditor moment
So just nuke the US when it comes to that, kay.
I want pizza now
lol
With pineapple on it
No, that's a war crime
then i love war crimes
Tried Empyric resolve on EK. I am converted 
We are going to build a giant Throne, on Holy Terra, and we are going to make Chaos pay for that Throne
Does anyone have a build for the Penance where you gotta deal 50% of a monstrosities health in a Private Game?
Pick the Resonance upgrade for BB, the shield with two walls and middle keystone
Alr thank you
too coherent
free armor trimming
"Did I ever mention I love Darktide? Great game, fantastic game, one of the best games. You love Fatshark. Those are the devs, Fatshark, they call them. Huge shark. One of the biggest sharks. I hear they have sharp teeth. It's crazy, what they can do."
Hi, it's me, your friend trapped in the US.
Help. Is big deal to me. Let me out. Let me out. Let me out.
Just go to a close country and you will still be alive

Like Catnyada.
even meowxico
I dunno, country north of US, I think?
Bro talking like the nearest country isn't many days away on foot
Come to South American

and yes, I only have feet for transport in beeg country. Is ballz
South America is even further
Plane
Those seem to be falling out of the sky in America recently
Skill issue
Although I think the latest crash was a helicopter
Start walking or hope ppl are nice enough to give you a lift.
just take a train to a far north place
not wizened up enough on train routes yet 
Hogwarts sent me a letter just to reject me. I didn't even apply 😭
What a chad move
That sounds fair
After all, you don't exist

No, you don't exist. I'm the one dreaming, after all.
I'd like to wake up back in 2008 plz
I can't prove you because you don't exist
It's probs a common nightmare. Aren't we all dreamers anyway?
Already is 😔 Just the dull and existential kind
But if I don't exist that means you can't interact with me
So I exist

That isn't true, because I'm interacting with you and you don't exist

And what makes you think you don't exist?
Nothing, because I think I exist.
You're wrong, because you don't exist.
Nah you are wrong
You saying you think is merely part of the dream.
Because I believe you don't exist
Another lie told by the dream.
I believe you are just a non existencial wizard
A beautiful lie, but I think therefore I am. I can't hear you think, so you could not be.
You can't hear me think because your powers have skill issue
Can't even read a mind of a rodent

I can't hear you think because you don't think, because you don't exist.
"that is a lie because I very powerful when I am not dreaming"
Well, now you're just wrong because I very weak
Same as you

Come on wizard, you are starting to bore me
Say something that actually makes me think I am part of a dream
I can't, because you are part of the dream, so to you it is reality
Anything I said would simply be explained away by the fabric of the dream simulating your mind

Bro acting like I get god powers just because I sleep
Ye
You do?
No
Never dreamed?
Yesterday I dreamed about smoking warpstone and this made me become king of all dimensions
Instead of an unwanted scapegoat that should just die but can't.
The only dreams I get are nightmares... and like, not even good ones
Like I once dreamed I was in a car moving towards a beeg pit
but we weren't there yet
Impending doom?
and the thought was that the car was going to go into the pit, right?
but we weren't there yet
and we never got there
Yes but without the sense of impending or doom
Is bad nightmare 
So boring.
Another dream I had was a zombie apocalypse but all the zombies had flowers growing on top of their heads. Like, not body horror or anything, just some dirt mashed on top and a flower sticking out. They were also slow and harmless.
My zombie dreams are more tyrant fantasies.
And these are nightmares. Like, in the dreams I'm always scared.
So like, escort simulator, except the escort is a Human lady who just seems to trust you.



Wat?
Suspicious.
I did say my dreams are horror or yuri or both.
An escape from life so I hate waking up tbh.
I mean I have vivid fantasies, but those are never dreams.
I rarely dream, really.
you just have to believe in urself
All the time. I forget them quickly if I don't pen them down asap.
I think my last dream was years ago.
my best one was when i realized i was dreaming half way into an argument and turned the person i was arguing with into a pillow and beat the shit out of him
I can do both, so........... 
Least disturbing Hungarian
Eh?
What eh? 
(a guy quoting a guy): "(response to that guy he quoted)"
(some other person): "(confused for some reason)"
Are Hungarians that disturbing?
Clad is Hungarian, what he wrote was disturbing, it was a joke, it's not that deep 
Thing is, it's not disturbing for me so... Why confused.
im not hungarian btw just staying there rn
I spawn in, shoot a gunner, soulfire jumps to a DH. I die.
Truly one of the starts to a mission ever
Try starting and nearly bullrushing into a DH.
Because I heard a chaotic mess before I saw anything.
Thank god you can interrupt bullrush lul.
i have those too but they all are about ur mom
FGS
Oh true, I keep forgetting about that cuz I haven't had an emperor reward give me one yet
deimos force sword is decent
So there's literally none in my inventory
Deimos is just dueling sword lite
it has deflector so its like a sidegrade
Only if deflector is a benefit, which it often is not.
gunner/flamer trickster cosplay
Scorpion at home
Is illisi just outclassed by fgs now?
No, illisi has better mobility
Is still better defensively tbh considering staff mobility, heh.
Deimos also has the force push
I love that as a utility
Duelling Sword is a better killing weapon, but Deimos is a better defender/brawler imo.
You want warp resistance under 60% for a warp greatsword on psyker right?
is this one worth buying and upgrading
You can if you wanna get peril faster.
until every stat but warp is maxxed out
Yes, unless you want lower than 60% after upgrading.
Cos if the WR starts too high, the chance of it maxing it is also higher. XD
it stayed at 48% warp resistance with all the other stats maxxed
It's a luck thing after all so heh.
I think you Ideally want it a bit lower, but I'd have to check exact breakpoints.
Mine is 31% and I'm landing at 90 peril after two waves.
The goal for a sub-60 WR fgs is basically getting over 87% or so with two waves. (you want a couple of % to account for timing between waves and for differences in peril reduction between builds)

You may require this, good friend
mods are the first step to heresy
We're psykers
Mods are just canonically how we are
we need a mod to just explode the computer whenever we get perils'd
explode the brain irl when we get peril'd
Are regular force sword attacks warp attacks?
no
ok
only special
but greatsword is?
only special on that too
Do i want rending at 75% peril for inferno
yes because the alternative honestly hurts inferno
ER still worth it with bubble in havoc
am i crazy or at some point someone posted a build that was bubble but with gun?
Almost got got
only hp point that matters
Perfect curio choice ✨
to this day im still not sure what are the good curio combos for psyker
I run 1 stam 2 toughness
havoc I run 3 toughness curios with a couple hp perks. everything else i run 1 hp 1 tough 1 stam
Havoc is actually making me want more curio perks
I actually want stamina regen, gunner res, bomber res, toughness, health, even toughness regen
Havoc is the first time since I started that I've legitimately run revive speed perks and it has saved a few runs
Is bomber res actually good now? For a while it was literally worthless
not really
unless ur getting gassed by tox bomber really badly
The last time I tested it against actually bomber flames, 3x20% res shaved like 0.2 seconds off the time it would take the fire to down you from full, compared to no res

But that was a while ago
They're basically the only specials that damage me
Flamers very rarely as well I guess
They really need to combine the perks for resista other than gunners
Could put dogs muties and bursters in one perk and it wouldn't be as good as gunner res
For real
Flamer res used to only apply to the flamer's kicks. Dont know if that ever got fixed or not
They always spawn 3 of them mfs
Except the one truth moans 🗣️🗣️🟩
Combine bombers and flamers, then combine all other specials
Also the direct damage from the grenade itself 
Causes Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance to launch whenever you get hit
hello
where my fellow freaks
I have the joy that I feel that I have a healthy collection of builds for psyker, for all staffs (except Void strike), many gunker versions, some brain burst ones... And smite...
That one doesn't spark joy ngl
I wish there was a blitz talent that makes smite actually do damage instead of CC
I too have a healthy collection of builds
You beat me by 7
That's actually an old pic, I think I have a couple more now 
I ran out of UI room tho 😭
I want Smite to be a more healthy "horde control" blitz, the concept is neat, but the current implementation is boring
The struggles of building, how you have so many? What concepts you have cooked there?
want smite to be a horde clear talent but don't know how to balance it since it has infinite stock.
The majority are staves combined with specific abilities. Voidstrike for example gets split into Shriekstrike and Scrierstrike
There's also a few gunker builds, one for recon, one for vraks, one for laspistol
like want to see horde mobs electic-exploding everywhere
There's the very sus bubblestrike as well, but it's worse than the other two. XD
I mean... it doesn't have to have infinite stock.
I have the struggles to make void strike builds, mind sharing some of your ideas? I have both gunkers with azail, brain burst, EP and even bubble
I want it to be like a electric shotgun that you charge and blast a horde for damage depending on how much you charged, staggering only once and depending of the time you stagger to the ground enemies up to crushers
also wish there was a way for BB to only target elite/specials like a additoinal talent node it's too hard to pick em in a mixed horde.
Those are two basic VS builds, the ballspam one being the more difficult to play but generally people enjoy playing it more because balls
that sounds cool
WDYM, more difficult?
4 rituals triggering chained together on Magstrati, what is this 😩
It's harder to play and requires more skill.
Shriek is easy, point and shriek. Watch things fall over.
The ballspam build demands accuracy on top of having low toughness regen
But you can ballspam even with shriek. That's more emergency vent if you dook up.
Shriek also helps cover Voidstrike's weakpoint, spreadout hordes, whereas Scrier's invests more into Voidstrike's strengths (and thus you have to know when to stop charging and just fire to stop wasting time overkilling in addition to still having a glaring weakness)
What is the advantage of ball other than no ammo cost?
Sure, which is why I specified the ballspam build
SG is spicy trying to quell inbetween blasts.
as compared to?
what do ya'll think of the charge time on BB? do you think is too slow or could be slower or just right?
Bolter, I have experience using assail-bolter-vent
BB is a pain and bad
it is agonizingly slow, and it does bad damage
It's clearly too slow. Needs a damage buff tbh.
It is a last resort you never want to take out and only do so because something has gone wrong and you're on Inferno
It's good if you know what you are doing, using the alternate fire to charge a BB and then click on your intended elite target is a good way to manage it, otherwise peeking that sniper and charging behind cover is also good
Or nobody is shooting that bloody sniper.
I think the best way to describe Brain Burst. Is it is literally only taken because of Kinetic Flayer
A node that means you don't have to use it
Bistol is weaker. Voidstrike will let you one-shot crushers if you can manage buffs/crit.
Yeah, but here's the thing. Assail can one shot every special and elite (except mutants) too
But, y'know, Bistol is also faster.
And at worst 2 shots them which takes about the same time as BB
Sick, that sounds like a warp sniper, Def missing that archetype
And better with the FGS.
Needs cleave buff for that.
It's as close to the plasma as we get, shush
That's only because of puncture.
Probably I just got used to it's jankiness on a BB build, so that might be the difference on experience, but definitely isn't something you use outside as an extra burst of damage for some staffs
maybe then EP BB should be default? or even faster?
Still doesn't mean it doesn't need a little buff.
EP BB being the base BB would be a start.
But that alone makes it better. Also more mobility.
It's still a very strong staff, wtf u mean
What would the Ep BB do then?
Like, yeah, it doesn't perform in the extremely-unbalanced Havoc mode because it can't infinitely cleave carapace spam
Moar cleave, yes. Be the BOWLING staff.
Bruh
it has a cleave of like 40 with warp splitting
It already bowls everything that isn't carapace
Honestly, EP itself probably needs a rework
Kinetic Resonence maybe?
It being a keystone that buffs only blitzes, having a node that grants charges only on elite kills... ugh, it's just not great
Needs to be elites AND specials.
and have KR be replaced with a new node
add in bosses too, cuz y the f not
I mean, that should be baseline. If you honestly score the last hit with assail or bb, you deserve the charge.
If you are smiting the boss, I'm just glaring at you.
Smite absolutely needs a rework
yep
yeah
but is still needs to be the crowd control ability imo
I want to do UNLIMITED POOOOOWWAAA, Not this "Simon says: stop!"
yesterday when playin 4stack smite our asses more times than i want to admit
Yeah, I want it to be a CC shotgun of electricity
how about crowd control and clear
how does that work tho
Erase fodder enemies when charged enough and toss even crushers to their fat ninja asses when fully charged
first stun and then damage amplyfies fast
I would rework EP to be a more general (but still blitz-focused) keystone. But, assuming we only get to change the BB stuff, I would make EP grant your BB the ability to either spread like in Mortis (but, slightly more consistently via more range with a lower max cap and a targetting priority towards elites/specials) or to do crazy damage as a boss-deletion tool (and stacks only being consumed when the enemy would not have been 1-hit by base BB).
i mean yes empowered psionics felt bad when i used it
I was thinking like erasing trash mobs so we can get space to dodge and deal with elites
EP smite is pretty funny 
best feeling was with permastacking BB
Or a multistrike against a boss. Say, 5 strikes to a single target or target+as many as it can kill in 5 strikes.
Scrier ep smite 
I mean a very easy way to solve BB's current issues would be to just make its buffs drastically longer
maybe 2 modes of smite? crowd control that stays the same and damage mode that has less targets and fills peril faster?
It would still not be the best thing, but it would be way more functional for much more of the match
honestly stunning crushers with smite is very funny but at the same time I want to actually fight it after some time.
5 is honestly probably a little too high for a BB that is buffed to EP levels at base
3?
but idk, I'm guessing and would have to see.
would be acceptable
Can be less. I was just stating a random number.
Long range stagger with like 3 targets that works like live and a charged mode that is more shotgun like for horde control and stagger of elites
3 sounds about right
true
I still have my shrapnel storm staff idea
MorbidlyobeseShrimp works in mysterious ways
After all, is just an idea. Numbers can be left to ppl who can balance better.
That or the balance team of ObeseFish
all I'm saying is shooting lightning from your hands should be more stronger
I mean, it currently is strong, it's just boring because it stops the interaction with the game
True. I'm just good at fun OP stuff.
brainburst could be called smite and no one would bat en eye
I genuinely mix both sometimes

more destructive then
This is why I want my "Electric shotgun" idea, would need some average charge time for max power, but the devastation would be much more suddenly and would still serve to control the mixed hordes while feeling not like the current electro therapy and more like UNLIMI-you get the idea
BTW why does electric staff's surge blessing only work on primary? it already has the double-lightning-on-crit effect
Is there a build for that surge thing on the electro staff?
yeah I want to vaporize them with lightning not comically taze them forever
dunno
surge works on projectiles
The only staff that has RMB projectiles is Voidstrike
Or just use mortis shock pulse but actually damages, ep skips the charge up. Charge increases the shock duration and/or damage.
Voidstrike is the only staff that fully benefits from surge (which is why it is the gamble staff)
oh ok thx for the explanation
Been using too much ogryn on Mortis trials, have to give my Psyker a run in it
No, I mean the voltaic thing.
The mortis smite does ??? Thing. Is like smite no longer needs to charge for max damage.
Yes, LMB spam
Many hate it, and it was recently nerfed (not really deservedly, and in a way that kinda made staves feel worse to play imo)
Ah, yeah. Come to think about it, feels that ObeseFish is seeking to introduce electrocution as a new status, so there is hope for that in some future in the normal mode (inhales more hopium)
It's already on the shock maul
I mostly just run colossus vet if possible.
75% TDR is funni.
Ran a medic veteran, frag your team for heals AND some shields
Was crazy
introduces real reasons to play lmb staff
It gets out of control
remove what made it out of control
everyone forgets you can build for lmb staff
Triple shout and heals... also corruption removal due to colossus.
Funni.
I literally just started running an m1 electro staff today
Nobody forgot, it's just more boring than smite

Feels fine
Colossus feels odd considering that my vet is mouse sized, but sounds fun
I have tall vet so kinda fits.
Damn, the bar is that low 😭
Though funni knoife vet heh.
Tragic, more boring than smite is a low blow
I mean, it's spam primary and quell and everything dies.
i would like something like vermintides 2 lifestealer staff where both buttons are usefull
There is no way that a high rof projectile weapon is more boring than holding down a button and nothing else
Still, more boring than smite is a really new type of low
LMB spam is literally "hold down button and nothing else"
It's also more annoying than smite because it's louder
At least smite is relatively silent.
those are piercing balls i want exploding balls instead
Trauma shoots invisible balls
that explode

kinda miss the fire-javelin staff form Vermintide 2 but really don;t know how will it differ from voidstrike and assail
If you installed an aimbot to play a pve game idk what to tell you
nah i mean like fireball staff and not conflagaration staff
You have to aim a bit with smite too.
and smite slows you down which is a cause for concern in some situations, especially when ranged is involved
LMB spam is literally 'point at threat and win'
the bar is not high, but somehow it's below the floorboards
Smite does take a bit of aim, you've lost the plot
Smite is 'point in general direction' aim. You also want to kite a bit so every enemy is in front.
LMB spam has mad suppression, so 'point in general direction' is completely viable for it too.
could use ek staff with full auto mod
I do, but even if you don't click spam is hardly different from holding down the button.
voidstrike is slow and has good cleave
make the projectile fast with a high finesse bonus for headclicking things
still slow charge time so it doesn't invalidate using a gun
Your contribution to my collection is implemented appreciated (pending that I get the resources to upgrade the weapon itself) you think the changes to gaze favour this build? Feels that the quelling on activation helps this style a fair bit
It doesn't hurt, but it's not the biggest thing. Nice, but definitely superfluous.
Also
But what if space magic...but in boolet?
Guaranteed crits that hurt more because warp juice
very boring
all it does is more damage
snooz
replace scrier's with cool nonsense like homing projectiles for guns
Imagine marking with scriers and every bullet acts like that scene of the 5th element flying to headshot no matter where you aim
Nah its much nicer to use than void. Bolt staff my fav
Void is slow af
I like the passive charging on bolt staff
Said the man can't play with guns

I just wish there were more staffs in general
As do we all.
sigh
I mean, it has everything else though.
by rgs it feels less the way
I'm starting to wonder if it's physically possible to beat Malice Mortis in under 25 minutes
I'm losing track of how many games I complete at the 26 minute mark
I know someone got it after a hotfix shortened the paused between waves or something like that.
Luck of the draw seems like
pretty sure i was in a lobby that got it a few days ago
i think it was even damnation since that's all i play
think this is it, the timer almost certainly includes the time before starting it
something that might be important is the 5% instakill voltaic ability since it lets you skip a lot of time on the monstrosities if you get lucky
uh i just had a bug where i got voidblast instead of inferno staff
It is possible, I got it 
Fake news
No one is getting it in my games. I have my sub 30 oggy just slapping the entire time.
i got it in a random lobby
ogryn 20% rocks
yeah or that
that one is so funny
or you have a dorky th zealot
smites monsters with thunderhammer
while aplying burn through archetype for more aoe clear
I got the penance on a 25min run, I guess it rounds up or down based on how many seconds? 

Play oggy and pick all the nades boons for your nuke
Become oggy heinmer
whats the dump on voidstrikes?
Blast radius.
Warp resist on all other force weapons.
By all force weapons, I mean both ranged and melee categories.
ah ty!
Maybe BB charge time/peril generation should differ depending on enemy types
so that even if you target the wrong enemy you can quickly do it again
ex) ogryn/maulers: default, other elites/specials: EP speed 15~30peril, regular mobs: EP + KR speed 5-15 peril
idk just throwing ideas cause I want BB to feel better to use.
btw did the game buff soulblaze? I don't remember KF applying to soulblaze DOT. or was it alway that way?
currently on meat grinder and the specials are in an endless dying loop
BB is slow, but you can nearly chain it by tapping quell. If you begin the cast at 97% or lower, you can keeping doing BBs.
Also yeah. KF now procs off DoTs (not electro from wall tho). PC can proc off SB kills now as well.
PC and KF proccing off SB dots is so peak
thx for explainging was confused for a moment
KF used to proc off more than regular fire burn DoT from like infernus a long time ago, but now we get nearly all DoTs prccing KF.
Do we know if it's intended? 
NP. If you don't want to chance it with 97% peril, you and just quell until you see your hands come together and begin casting again.
Default UI can round funny. So 97% isn't always 97%.
The change seems to be indented if looking at mortis trails indulgences.
But idk. lmao
I have a problem mainly not because it's slow, but rather it's hard to pick a special/elite in a mixed horde. being slow is just additional. so if I accidentely burst a poxwalker. I want it to be quick so I can try again.
It's not a good use of your time as psyker
Specials and elites tend to be taller. Jump for easier access.
But yeah, gotta have space or make space to do it.
Dodge duck dive
Temporary tall
jumping definately sounds helpful. thx for the tip
Legit, making your character taller can help you pick out specials in the crowd and hit heads in melee
Just be Ogryn 
Not that you need it, as I did play short psyker for a long while. If you aim at the right angle, you'll grab the special.
max height characters can hit bulwarks over their shields with any weapon with a stab or overhead attack
sometimes you just wanna go sparky sparky boom boom instead of rock boom boom
but minimum height characters also get shot less because cover actually works for them
so
They already have assail? (rock)
Oggy throw psyker like a warp nade when?
this is not true
Cover never works
If 0.001% of your body is visible, the ranged enemies will target and hit.
wtf I thought hitbox would be the same regardless
no lol
ogryn max height is betetr because it makes it easier to hit over bulwarks
and cover already doesn't work for you to begin with justy being an ogryn
My psyker hight reflects my skill level. Mid
to make their hitbox smaller
beside ogryn
Not like's there's any real difference lol
The real difference is the friends we made along the way
typical anime quote
Yes, that's the point 
friends friends friendly friends i definitely have friends
Not if I dream them away
Taking any damage as psyker feels so punishing, you got simultaniously hit by two guys, goodbye half your health, skill issue 👏
have you tried spaming your staff?
yep
Have you tried spamming it harder?
but im not using inferno so thats on me
Have you tried not getting hit?
But in all seriousness yeah, one mistake gets you in trouble lol
Nooo dont troll me 😭 this isn't zealot chat you're supposed to be nice to meeee
all the staffs do enough cc, a bit if a pain with voidstrike but it'll keep you out of melee
gunners are bad news if you dont have the toughness regen for them though
Psyker is glass cannon, so best is indeed to not get hit
we also have great toughness regen though, so we can get hit once with breaks to refill toughness
ive maxed every classes pennances apart from psyker just a whole different ball game, no get out of jail free cards
(apart from spam your meta build staffs)
Psyker has the easiest penances tbh lol
especially now since there's several spots to farm elites and specials
rather than hop on one leg while taking a poo taking out 5000 enemies as veteran
what was that pennance so stupid
Psyker has a lot of tools to help with staying alive, Kinetic Deflection (to block with peril instead of stamina), Deflector (to block ranged attacks with peril), a lot of CC, Bubble
at launch the game simply didnt spawn enough
Kinetic deflection 
Almost done
nah ive done that one, all the blow yourself up ones were easy once i realized perils of the warp was stupid speak for kill yourself
So many random wordings for some of them
i got 37/40 for the scriers gaze one 
it's a tabletop thing, but it isnt really mentioned anywhere else i guess
they also expect you to remember the OG name for your F
As they call it something weird, not venting shriek or scriers or shield
oh yeah, relic of the og being the only ability
its also kinda weird how little pennances are to do with the shield, arguably the one they should push you most toward using
Well BB is obvious. Took me a while on vet to realise "Volley fire" = "Exe stance"
Half of them are from before shield was a thing
A lot of the random wording is older names still being used.
yeah coming from beta it hasnt hit me that the wording for those penances is extra fucky now
Still think it's stupid for fatshark to rename the staffs
still call em surge purge trauma
"Stun 500 specials with your shield walls" Hound/Mutie/Burster - waves are my best friends now
This game is poop at telling you what it means. Rip if your game isn't in English. I hear it's worse.
Especially since they made it worse with the two void staffs 
Renaming the IAGs too. Why??
Should I change mine to German and have an aneurysm? 
I care about you, so no..
Peril irl
at the very least the gun names were already close together, so there was a good chance you'd say its name and have to specify which one it actually is anyway. the staff names were actually unique though
Wdym. The most popular one was called a name that was put onto another gun.
like the columnus auto, there were/are other guns with colomnus that my brain shifts to when someone mentions it
You're the only one I've seen say that.
Depends how you sorted them in your brain I guess
now it is vraks
and you specify the mark which I cant remember off the top my head
Me specifically or in general?
There are only a few weapons that I specify mks. Like DS, FGS, or knife.
im better at remembering "slow/mid/fast" and then the weapon name
I think regular force swords are the only weapons that I use the name instead of the mark for
I don't even know their marks
just in general. I'll do it myself too and then realize that I could be talking about a completely different weapon than what im thinking
No idea either
illisi, obscurus,.deimos
I asked last week and someone told me, but I already forgot again
force swords got unique names too at least, and I forget which mark has the fun pokey for the greatswords
Both have a poke
I remember vraks is mkV because V is the number and in the name. (in English)
yeah but the push poke is annoying, at least you can do the funny bug and hold that poke infinitely without being able to let go
I remember vraks because people complain about the name all the time
columnus mk5
I remember the V for the iag because that's one of the most popular guns effected
They both have a poke. Depends on where in the move set you want it.
I thought one only had a light poke if you disregard the push attack? I want that big poke that'll give 20k damage
does someone remembet the vraks mk7
and push attacking for it instead of having it chainable is cringe
Mk6 has poke in the heavy chain, mk8 has poke after the push attack and is stronger than mk6 poke
sounds like a headhunter/vigilant?
I was responding to "I forget which mark has the fun pokey for the greatswords". They both do.
Light poke spam is deimos.
I only think of the 3 burst headhunter when vraks is mentioned, it was cool when no reprise stacked infinitely
bingo, the single shot semiauto one
fuck
the revolvera screwed me up cause before the good one was zarona now it is the bad one
the silliest stab is deimos h2
Mutant annihilator is always nice
that greatsword heavy combo is insane for boss damage though. We were running a scriers psyker in havok 38 doing 15k damage a poke
They swapped the revolver names? Say it ain't so 
yes
i know that
I didn't, that might be the worst change
The revolvers are still the same. At least the zarona and agrippina parts are the same.
Good, then the whole vraks and columnus thing is the worst, or changing one of the evis marks for no reason
anyone wanna help me do the pennance for this:
put all 3 batteries in at once
randos just dont understand what im asking of them
Also renaming Trauma to Voidblast... Just so now we can't talk about having void staff any more without it being unclear
is ek op?
Zappy staff? I wouldn't really say so but the meta shifts a lot over time
I would call it fine
reading a forum post and some guy puts it alongside dueling sword
Yes.
okay
EK very OP, please don't use and get it nerfed
but i love EK
Okay then you can use it
yay!
"Why do you have broken fingers and CTS?"
"Because I wanted more dps in Darktide
"
whats apm
Actions per minute
So if you have fast enough fingers and reactions you can increase your damage with extra button presses to skip animations
I already feel stressed just using EK normally without all the cancels 
fun fact
not all keyboards/motherboards can support that many inputs at once
Thankfully it's not needed at all 
so thats one thing controlers have on some older keyboards
Only required if you want to flex with big damage number on scoreboard for memes.
I guess, just unfortunately that some of these things are not feasible to do at all, because your fingers will be off the stick for too long 
get some backpedals
I have two and they help, I would still need a few more 
i thought the quell cancel was patched out?
I use mine to replace D-Pad buttons, combat ability and blitz
i don't touch gamepads in shooter settings
Only
play fps with controller
i grew up as a pc player

this suddenly got recommended to me
now I see how smite could've been
EK used to 2 shot crushers, them's the times
Smite used to be bugged and be able to cast for free with EP
deleting ragers with smite looks so satisfiying shame it's just false advertisement
Whats changed been away for a few months
New game made, Havoc has new modifiers, ogryn got an entire tree rework
Any changes to psyker
We had a mini rework for our tree, a few more great options
Entire right side was buffed in the latest patch
Inferno staff bubble still the go to for havoc?
Bubble is less needed, but it's still just as strong
maybe, it's only less needed because ranged enemies in havoc are not bullshit anymore 
Ahhh ok gotcha
Melee Psyker Havoc 40 when ?
It's nice not getting deleted by them, but instead Havoc has more bosses, weakened boss spawns, twins spawns, captain
Ah ok sounds fun 🙂
Give it Chaos as a challenge for a youtube video
@plucky flax
People are waiting to flame him again, I'm sure
you bring a gunpsyker into havoc in this pub climate people are going to put you on blocklist 😂
and it would be deserved
Blocking people is never deserved
After doing Havocs runs. Maelstrom Auric is a break
I have blocked plenty of people for being toxic and for speedrunning already
demios or illsi for ek build?
Illisi
thanks to @upbeat kestrel for getting me my last spireside 13 bits I now have the drip
last guy I ever blocked was a psyker who ran smite/shock batton
guy was going off the rails trying to convince me it had some OP interaction that would carry a 40
went down twice during first wave and had half the dmg of everyone else
😂
its like coming home to your lover you havent see from the start of the war
It’s funny and I enjoy doing it too from time to time but shock baton is firmly meme
Illisi is love, illisi is life
1970 called, they want the word lover back
demios is pretty good too
i was playing with chain axe and thought "hey isnt this just deimos"
am happy
im really enjoying both my gunker and ek builds, i dont know what to play!
Voidblast
Voidblast EP brain rupture dome with Deimos
Coin toss
Swiss army psyker build. You do everything.
gunker is probably the most powerful auric build in the game
Gunker is strong, though I at least have a bigger impact with EK, when it comes to keep the team from dying
it's auric, if they die they are weak 
Kinda yeah, had one player who always had problems with keeping pace with the rest of the team, even at the last 10m before evac he was still fighting off hordes and wouldn't enter the elevator 
typical auric game nowadays you just farm pickup, new people are wayy to greedy when choosing difficulty
I prefer that over 4 good players, because then it's just boring
Auric overall just feels like malice for me coming back from doing havoc 35+ games repeatedly
Havoc 40?
yes

it was week 1 of 2.0, I thought he was a mad genius and took a chance 😭

don't look at me like that, he had no borders no medal and a high true lvl, all pro players look like that!
I don't look like that, it explains a few things
U bring mods to inspect some of these imposters
And you don't wanna play with me, hrmph.
Funny enough u will quite often recognize the same ppl who play pub high havoc
I almost never play with people from here 
me in the middle
your words not mine, that means we are even now for your help with those private penances 
It was only Clad if that guy was using a thammer and marty
i am a shield kickback enjoyer now
scuff scoreboard from a week ago on h40
I got that yesterday xd
how would u know tho
Guy was flaming me from pre lobby for having gun
And flamed me throughout the round
half the community is pulling their hairs out trying to climb this new havoc
people will flame anybody for the slightest fault
understandable lol
Though I've yet to encounter pubs that are toxic over what build u should use or class
I told you, oggies are either the nicest peeps or the most toxic peeps.
They just roleplay bully
Tru is why I play oggy to balance the scale
Me veri nice 
I roleplay bodyguard so im nice
I'm just confused messing with GG.
Grenade gauntlet.
Gg goos
Trying to make hybird build.
Yeah?
Is a mess.
Expected
Thus.
ogryn is so comfy to play just spam heavy attacks and save ur team all game
sometimes throw rock

i went from shield to carsales and i keep overshooting the heavies 😭
Just keep spamming
You mean see mutie, rock.
Can't lose
Teehee.
can u out damage u?
I wouldn't let an ogryn outdamage me if I was playing psyker
agent would barrel himself 😭
Yes, but you outdamage yourself.
rok is so nice
Rock friend muties yes?
what kinda gun psyker were u runnin?
sidenote holy shit mister e's takes make me feel like im overloading on peril
what builds is deimos force sword good in
You always call me a noob 
Dude, everytime i play Havoc, some bs happens and i get launched off the map because of an explosion while im horde clearing, then the horde overwhelms my team, some dude rage quits and we gotta rely on one guy that has a stealth ability, oh but whats that? Daemonhost ritual? Great!
Only time I wouldn't use it is EK, since you mostly just fend off chaff with your melee
Everything else gets zapped
Yes you
deimos force sword activated ability gets those synapses firing
Recon las 12
frfr
I’ve seen some new og builds that seem literally impossible for the game to damage, it’s pretty insane
I don't like Deimos so much for gunker either but it can totally work
Just subjectively I want to be killier on gunker
thats what im running it on
I love it on gunker. Better mobility than FGS
Feel like a slug whenever a pull out FGS
FGS feels like is telling you "no running, we hold this ground in the Emperor's name" and I always say "yes"
Also it's horde clear power is absurd
i havent thought about obscurus in yonks
Terrible horde swings, but really good Vs heavy enemies in general
I prefer duelling sword for my gunker really. Or I just take the FGS8 anyway.
naw wait obscurus is what i was thinking abt
Imo is really good for Void last and inferno, but you need horde clear on weapon or assail as bare minimum to complement it
diemos or obscurus for gunker/assail 🤔
Imo diemos, has good swing patterns for horde management and can fight caparace with good results. You can use Obscurus and absolutely crush crushers in melee with swings but you will depend on team for horde control
UnsanctionedPsyker
UnfriendlyPsyker
So you'd class Deimos as the middle ground weapon more, and Obscurus as the single-target focus now?
Never take blazing spirit on anything but Voidblast
And generally crit damage is a bad perk but idk about electro staff specifically
crit hit damage is bad
I like slaughterer on Illisi a lot tbh, it stacks it very easily
Nah deimos just better with both
And I'm one of those weirdos that takes Bloodthirsty on it, although idk if I still would after the Mettle nerf
really?
Yes, it's not good on anything else, especially bad on melee unfortunately
Yeah, it's surprisingly bad. I wanted the cool fire sword too.
You can't even trigger wildfire with it because most of the time you're killing anything you're slashing anyway
my thought process was that it would be another avenue to apply soulblaze
It's a really bad avenue for it
Soulblaze is good because it gets applied in strong ways usually
its a much better all around weapon imo, where illis whants to be horde and trade single target and obscurus do the inverse, Deimos is the one who do it all
Perilous combustion, purg, blazing trauma and shriek are way better sources
The only reason why blazing spirit on voidblast is good, is because the radius for applying it is so much bigger than the radius for the damage
Otherwise it would suck there too
It effectively broadens the centre of the Sombrero of Death.
well unfortunately i cant change the perks bc i have no dockets
So Voidblast becomes lethal with repeated blasts right to the edge
Easily fixed by sending a few more heretical bastards back to their ruinous false gods
Crit damage is bad because the bonus only increases the extra damage from the crit portion, not the total damage.
Just do mortis.
Pray for no trappers, ezy.
damn does no one play damnation?
SEA? Only auric damns.
I only play normal damnation for the modifiers to farm penance, but I didn't have problems getting games in EU
I keep joking about being bottom barrel heresy* with the * for a reason.
I literally only have auric damns avaliable unless I wanna solo.
You know server is ded when you duo auric damn with a random.
i spent all my money on a pair of pants
Pants are important
Oh. But shinies.
I just can’t comprehend spending money on cosmetics
I will never adapt to digital Barbie economy
I have been playing it for "free" on gamepass for almost 1,5 years now, so I spent 5€ on a staff skin and if there is armor in the rotation that I like I will buy that as well.
I think that's fair 
I bought some of the earlier cosmetic packs that came with weapon skins and a trinket
for...300 aquilas less than bundles cost now
Came with a really neat dark blue combat sword skin and I never use that weapon because after all this time that weapon is still absolute garbage
Seriously how has the combat sword never been buffed to be on par with other weapons?
It has always been trash tier

combat sword?
you mean heavy sword?
or something else?
this thing
Devil's Claw
yeah sure
combat sword is what the cosmetics call it
anyways why has it literally never been good
I like it
Skin doesn't even look awful
weapon customization mod is kinda getting in the way
it's not for that model
but it is that dark blue gradient color and I quite like the skin
oh was talkin devils claw in general
im g uessing fatshark wants it to be a defensive secondary instead of something you actually use
I’m a fiend for spaming the special action
honestly a tossup on if the chainsword or dclaw is worse
metro 2033 is free on steam

isnt chainsword like alright
XIIIg has very strong horde clear since it doesn't have finesse loss on cleave
so its crits do fucktons of damage even into density
It's still bad because against even flak armor it loses almost all of its damage
I've said it before and I'll say it again. Even gun psyker with Scriers Gaze+Disrupt Destiny does not make Chainsword feel like it does good damage
someone needs to sharpen those chains
It's so comically bad into armor
yeah idk some weps in this game just do like 9 dmg
Like Heavy Sword's carapace damage, but it's everything that isn't infested/unarmored
it made some sense before but ds4 exists on everyone now so lol
