I really don't understand why their is no "Havoc" public game MM. Make it hard to access one of the weekly rewards :/

You can do my map if you want.

You get randoms with 380-400 gear joining and barely doing stuff but die.

If you just want to join others, it's the same issue.

marble crater
#

Havoc is not really something for newcomers to begin with, it's the hardest content intended to play after you have enough experience

#

That said no Havoc matchmaking is one of the biggest complaints and people said it would die before it even released because of the party finder

tough vine
plucky flax
#

Then ppl can request to join you

tough vine
#

Oh I see

tough vine
#

Sorry since I've never used LFG and I saw it was greyed out, I assume you needed two members to create a party. You just have to select an option. my bad.

tough vine

#

Happens to everyone KEKW_ogryn

#

Party finder bad

wraith sphinx
#

Yeah havoc will stay flopvoc until matchmaking replaces the party finder

deft stump
#

Guy doesn't know I get rejections to even low runs for being 130~

dont think normal matchmaking will work

Because you can experience 40 with me. PeepoHappy

Better than derank in whatever rank you're at.

havoc 1 enthusiasts represent 😤

Sure feels like it

But holy fuck havoc pubs were better during 1.0

honestly even if they just get rid of the jacked up hitmass i'd be fine with it

Bubble is BORING

#

I don't want to be a bubble metaslave shining shout veteran's boots I want to rise to the occasion and prove gunker haters wrong

torn kernel
#

the low enemy health and massive fuckhuge hordes give me the power fantasy i expect from a warhammer game

#

if only they let you do havocs solo

deft stump
wraith sphinx
#

I didn't really enjoy low level havocs tbh

hardy coral
#

i love both ive tried so many different Psyker builds but since i play with randoms, i use Bubble and even with Bubble some players still manage to get downed. kirbybruh

wraith sphinx
#

Felt like a downgrade compared to maelstroms

deft stump
wraith sphinx
#

Are they actually big

#

I havent played a low lvl havoc since release

deft stump
wraith sphinx
#

Huh, probably didn't notice it then

#

Malice hp is miniscule

deft stump
#

Or maybe just our luck.

#

But it is what I find fun.

#

Just smashing into massive weak hordes as a pure power fantasy.

wraith sphinx
#

Fair nuff

hardy coral
#

i find it more satisfying when there's like 30 Maulers and 10 Crushers running my Direction and knocking them about with Voidstrike, its even better with Stamina stim. sadcryingsalute

i want a Cryo staff, think that would be interesting. MonkaHmm

Or stay in aurics and have a fun like a normal player

tough vine
wraith sphinx
#

Suffering mostly

#

Like you need to actually be good at the game and know the maps or you'll die in seconds

#

But doing things perfectly isn't enough, the rest of the team needs to not make mistakes too

wraith sphinx
#

And no splitting off, which should be kinds obvious lol

tough vine
#

I've seen a few H40 run, seems fun to me. I do understand that I'm not at that level yet, That's why I'm looking on where to start level wise.

plucky flax
#

I'm failing havoc 27 too. SadgeCry

#

Game too hard.

marble crater

Even with the famous bubble knight? Sitgryn

plucky flax

Nah I was playing surge creeping flames.

marble crater

That's the problem then

Thinking emperor's fading light 1 it should be okay but teammates are kind of headless chickens.

plucky flax
wraith sphinx
#

27 is emperors fading light 2?

marble crater
#

Think that starts at 30?

plucky flax

30 or 31 yeah.

I'm still confused with mods. Clearly they're not cheating. KEKW_ogryn

deft stump
#

Just lost either way.

#

Is like having beeg long beams guiding a player and they still get lost.

#

Why do you think having a beeg map, a minimap and glowing paths help so much.

real crow
#

Tbh, just knowing an enemy's health, and your relative damage to it, is a big deal.

#

In a pack of 6 crushers, knowing exactly which ones to focus to kill off quickly is match changing.

deft stump
#

We know. It's cheating. Ppl will say otherwise. It's co-op so not as bad.

real crow
#

My main thought on it is a lot of these people are like 'I am a super smart high difficulty player'

#

While playing with every single QoL thing under the sun.

#

Undermines it just a bit.

#

I'm not advocating for purity or whatever

deft stump
#

I dunno, I'm too lazy to mod.

real crow
#

But when some of those people routinely bash other people for being bad

#

comes across as...not great

torn kernel
#

i just stick to HUD mods to i don't have to deal with the dogshit vanilla peril fx KEKW_ogryn

real crow
#

I am heavily colourblind

strong gulch
#

A lot of them are accessibility. The main difference between when I mod and don't is how quickly my hands get tired.

real crow
#

I've not explored psyker that much (levelling it now)

deft stump
#

Lazy/Lazy, totally too lazy.

but yeah, the little orange or red number

is not great for my eyes

You don't even have air cons that can double duty as heaters.

I don't need warm when it can be 33°C in the middle of the night.

I had to stop assembling the furniture I was doing

because I got too warm

deft stump
real crow
#

20C is like...less than shorts weather if i can manage it

deft stump
#

That's like 24°C but raining all the time.

#

May or may not be storming.

real crow
#

it's been around freezing most nights, tbh

#

which has been nice

deft stump
#

Night is 30+ here.

#

I mean, is 11:19pm. 33°C.

real crow
#

I don't deal well with more than 21C

#

just heat coming out of my face and hands

#

idle room temp is about 15-16C

#

working temp ideally is like 0-5C

deft stump
#

Why sometimes I don't think ppl understand how warm it is.

#

Or hot.

real crow
#

I've been in 44C

deft stump
#

My room is an oven due to PC.

real crow
#

And I used to work in trucks

#

heated in the sun

#

up past 50C

#

for several hours

deft stump
#

That is outside temps at night, cooler.

real crow
#

I dare you to unload a 15m truck at like 55C, over 3 hours, and tell me I don't know what heat is D:

deft stump
real crow
#

while doing constant manual labour, yes

deft stump
#

Then you fall ill due to it and bedridden for days.

real crow
#

I used to go through about 6-8 litres of water in a night

#

some of this was also while wearing a covid mask

deft stump
#

Yep, I know. You are forced to for years.

#

Lifted only like last year?

#

Some jobs still force it.

#

Though it is to add extra precautions since food handling.

real crow
#

does assail count as a ranged kill for weekly quests?

deft stump
#

Same for staff.

#

Dunno about the special attack... but I expect those to be melee.

tough vine
#

What is worse, working in a 55ºC heat for a prolonged time, or work in a -20ºC Industrial Fridge for a prolonged time.

real crow
#

55C

deft stump
real crow
#

you can layer up for -20C

mental rock
#

coming from someone who is currently in the desert... heat is worse KEKW_ogryn

real crow
#

the way you deal with 55C is to make it not 55C

#

otherwise you just deal with it as is

deft stump
real crow
#

cold you can always wear thicker/better gear for

weary idol
#

you can layer up to avoid cold

#

you can not go outside naked to be less hot

#

and peeling off your skin is inadvisable

deft stump
tough vine
real crow
#

as mentioned, I am pretty toasty warm at 21C

#

I can't take more off at that point

deft stump
#

I really only needed more than thin innerwear when it went to -4 to -10.

weary idol
deft stump
#

Or as usual.

#

I might wear innerwear if it's windy.

wraith sphinx
#

You can't really do anything about the extreme heat except stay hydrated, not wear black clothed and suffer

real crow
#

black clothes are fine, so long as you're not in direct sunlight for too long

deft stump
#

You are better off with reflective colours though.

wraith sphinx
#

I do too but try to avoid it during peak summet

#

I'm enjoying the milder winters but 45°C summer can fuck off

real crow
#

just happens that sunlight can be mostly everywhere

#

so you want to absorb as little of it as possible

#

black emits better, but absorbs more

deft stump
#

I want to die before 7pm.

tough vine

#

Mediterranean moment truly

weary idol
#

work

#

Luckily since I run an antique store I only have to go out a few times a month to get new inventory and set up shop

weary idol
#

And most of that is in shop with many fans

real crow
weary idol
#

But loading shit in the sun sucks

wraith sphinx
#

Potentially even dangerous if you don't take breaks

weary idol
#

And it's not something you can make suck any less

deft stump
real crow
#

when I used to load/unload those trucks, I would bring in a 2 litre bottle of ice water from home

#

I had 2 on rotation that would alternately freeze

#

we had big fans outside the trucks

deft stump
#

It's dark now, still 33°C because.

real crow
#

so you would work for 5-10 minutes

#

come out of the truck with the other person on rotation

#

stand by the fan, drink water

#

and then swap

#

put the ice against your skin, on the arteries, to try to carry cold blood around your body faster, etc

#

more than about 10 minutes of hard physical labour in those hot trucks was not a good idea

deft stump
#

Why I never understood why Westerners come here during their winter.

tough vine
weak sierra
#

Isn't that the reason spaniards came up with the siesta? Because it's too hot to do any work?

deft stump
#

Why would you want to suffer 30-37°C?

real crow
#

for a lot of people that's comfortable

deft stump
#

This is assuming not a VERY hot day.

real crow
#

if you're actively trying to cool your body, rather than hydrate, I would go with colder water

#

if you're trying to min-max the value the water has on body hydration, then probably

deft stump
#

Unless you get a bad day.

#

Then just summer.

weary idol
#

summer is miserable

deft stump
wraith sphinx
#

And summers are just gonna keep getting worse 🙂

real crow
#

I prefer cold places and mountains and such.

weak sierra
#

It's times like these that I'm glad I live in Finland. Most people don't realize, but this country exists at the same latitudes as Alaska. Which means, during summer months there's hardly any darkness. You can stay up the whole night without needing any artificial light. Gotta wonder why some people take summer vacations in the south, because the summer is the most miserable part of the year in equatorial regions.

real crow
#

I'm fairly used to explaining to Canada/US people that the UK is north of basically every major population centre in those places.

wraith sphinx
#

I've been to uk

#

Definitely prefer its climate to mediterranean

real crow
#

It's been pretty solidly sunny the last 3-4 weeks.

#

Basically only rained last weekend.

#

Highs of like 15-22C, around my parts.

#

More or less ideal, by my standards.

wraith sphinx
#

And by mine

real crow
#

Only problem is you can basically never guarantee that.

#

It rains less in summer, but not never.

#

You plan your holiday and you just happen to hit the one week of summer that it rains non-stop.

wraith sphinx
#

I mean i'm used to frequent overcast so no real change there

deft stump

We don't have AC.

wraith sphinx

deft stump

Nobody ever have ac in UK.

deft stump

Even at night.

plucky flax
#

We just suffer every summer.

wraith sphinx
#

And when I do I never set it to over 5 degrees lower than outside temperature so I don't give myself temperature shock when I go outside

real crow
#

But yeah, we do not.

deft stump
wraith sphinx
#

Also last summer's heatwave was so bad it caused a meltdown in the regional power plant KEKW_ogryn idiots overcranked their ACs

wraith sphinx
plucky flax
#

Also hit 3 mil now on a really long and painful game. Purple + 21st Xd

wraith sphinx

21st is my fave modifier

Just had the worst psyker game ever.

Feels like the vet and other psyker on my team weren't doing anything, so I was constantly getting overrun and downed.

At one point I was spectating the other psyker trying to melee a gunner with the staff for like 15 seconds.

#

Like, bro. Ok, hit the gunner once to knock him over, but then shoot. Or pull out your sword, I know you have one.

oh no I think a lot more than that needs to be nerfed

#

the recent buffs to right tree psyker should also be reverted

patent wing
#

still the quell cancel delete is a way to disengage with ur hardest gamers

#

and it IS a skill expression to learn about hidden mechanics and implement them, even if if means to macro it.

weary idol

there's no skill expression to macros it's literally having a program do it for you

It's an animation cancel and the devs even said themselves that animation cancels were an integral part of gameplay.

I mean, I really don't care. I'm just saying. once you use a macro to do something that require timing with a normal controller you're muddying the waters. It's a fact for any game, no need for "500" levels in this game to know that. but you do you 🙂

End game builds and leveling builds are very different btw.

weary idol
#

Brain Burst is arguably the weakest blitz ability in the entire game

plush compass
verbal thistle
weary idol
#

The only "claim to fame" it has is that its Kinetic Flayer upgrade allows it to be used automatically

plush compass
weary idol
#

So it's taken on a lot of staff builds that have no reason to use any of the 3 blitzes

#

Since it's the only one that does something automatically

# plush compass how come?

If you find it fun, that's what's important. Gun Psyker Enjoyer doesn't like staves. So differences in taste are very much a thing.

@plush compass There is something I will add, leveling on psyker feels terrible, and there is a build that helps with it. But it does not use Brain Burst

but like you said if everything has a place then thats perfect

I think BB+Bubble is the most common psyker set up

Clearly gun psyker playstyle needs more buffs

Make it a part of Scriers Gaze that you generate peril to shoot but it costs no ammo to do so

broken carbon

strong gulch
# plush compass Why is BB so awful to level with

BB is slow and single target. You commonly get to 3/4th a charge then something dies so your time is wasted. Later, a lot of things take more than 1 BB. It makes you engage with the leveling gear more. Psyker is very dependent on their whole tree and maxed gear more than other classes. Staves have some of the widest scaling and some are even garbage without high investment. Assail on the other hand can handle anything below a mauler and doesn't make you dependent on leveling gear.

weary idol
wraith sphinx
#

Please no more changes to scriers gaze

Nobody is playing Scriers Gaze gun psyker build so it has to be weak

Don't mind the Invincible audio in the background

It's not havoc, so they were all shooty happy.

Thankfully 98% of my games have been chill or just hilarious inoffensive meltdowns

prime elk
deft stump
#

To be fair, other than the bickering over ammo, it still went fine.

#

Till they started to fight over the fouth use of the ammo crate.

wraith sphinx
#

What difficulty did that occur on karien?

#

I usually play damnation and aurics and encounter nothing of the sort

deft stump
#

Just auric damn. It's the only diff with ppl here.

wraith sphinx
#

Wew

deft stump
#

Is why they aren't bad, just 3 ammo vaccum builds.

wraith sphinx
#

At least asail gunker can manage with 3 ammo vacuums 😌

ornate hamlet
deft stump
#

I basically pick up tins if nobody needs them. I just ignored all ammo that game. The fourth use of crate was my share.

real crow
#

So I put off levelling psyker for ages

#

and now i'm doing it

#

and i feel like they removed the one staff that I kinda liked from VT2

#

which was like an autofire little bolts or right click to charge big bolts staff?

#

with voidstrike now being closest

#

so now none of the staffs feel very enjoyable to use?

prime elk
prime elk
#

just use assail until you reach 30

real crow
#

and I liked that one because the primary fire kinda felt like it was actually the purpose of the staff

#

with the secondary being just as valid, but more niche for heavier ones

#

compared to the ones we have now that feel, to me, more like the main purpose is always the right click and you can also do shitty other things without using ammo

wraith sphinx
#

Seconded, use assail until you hit 30, it will ease the leveling pain

real crow
#

I just want my machine gun staff back ;-;

wary flax
#

They should make a staff that fires shards similar to assail but without the auto-aim.

The machine gun staff.

real crow
#

It's been a while, but I feel like they removed some functionality from the other staffs?

#

like didn't you used to be able to hold left click to charge the ball?

#

and then your right click 'also' did a big AoE or whatever

#

but instead they split that into two entire staffs

#

(this was in VT2)

So I tried out the bubble knight build @plucky flax and it is solid. I think anticipation may actually have been helping because it did feel a lot easier to dodge stuff 😂

#

I was playing pretty bad because I was chatting with friends but i liked it

plucky flax
#

It feels easier to dodge melee too.

#

Just cos fgs is so slow

torn kernel

more people are taking the red pill

anticipation is poggers fr

tough vine
#

anticipation on gunker/meleeker build is a must have

jovial juniper
#

Nah

#

1 extra dodge is aight

#

But not a must have

tough vine
#

it's not just one extra dodge, there is a lingering effect that comes with it that is also very good

From 0.2 to 0.3

💀

compact coyote
#

so what's probably the best build for psyker?

wooden sand
#

Smite

jovial juniper
wraith sphinx
#

so I only today found out there's a setting that makes peril overload sound not deafen you 💀 💀 💀

jovial juniper
#

That's the important question

compact coyote
#

auric/havoc i guess?

jovial juniper
#

Ok but for what

#

Hordes?

#

Bosses?

wraith sphinx
#

what do you want to do

jovial juniper
#

Big enemies?

#

Safety?

wraith sphinx
#

Allrounder?

wooden sand
#

I think he wants a everthing build

jovial juniper
#

Oh
Inferno BB

#

Can't go wrong with Inferno

compact coyote
#

little hard to say, guess something that can ensure i can do a decent amount of damage while also managing not to get knocked down repeatedly.

wraith sphinx
#

Gun psyker is very strong but has a high skill floor

#

I can post my gun psyker builds if you want

compact coyote
#

does it involve smite and scrier's sight?

wraith sphinx
#

One does

#

the other is assail and scrier's

compact coyote
#

maybe even the useage of a force sword?

wraith sphinx
#

optional

jovial juniper
wraith sphinx
#

You can use the combat blade instead actually

wraith sphinx
#

Alright ratman

compact coyote
#

there anything to allow brain burst to charge any faster in case there's snipers, or will i have to hope there's an ogryn with a pocket full of rocks?

wraith sphinx
#

take kinetic resonance

#

and er empowered psionics

#

if you manage to combine the effects of both you can dish out brainbursts super fast for a limited time

compact coyote
#

right, got both of those on 1 of my builds with shriek, never seems to charge fast enough.

wraith sphinx
#

kinetic resonance and empowered psionics?

compact coyote
#

yeah

wraith sphinx
#

hm

#

how do you use brainburst, and do you know you no longer need line of sight to the target once you start charging it up

compact coyote
#

i mean i could hold right click, but then my running speed's slower, and my perils are ever climbing faster than if i just hold left click and brain burst any random guy

wraith sphinx
#

I never rmb brainburst personally

compact coyote
#

i try it sometimes, just it never feels like it's doing anything for me, rather against.

strange wyvern
hidden moss
#

When it comes to Voidburst staff gameplay - are you mainly fully charging circles and putting them under the back part of the horde/elites, spreading dots and the occasional LMB spam in case of spicy bursters?

wraith sphinx
#

now I wanna put together a bb gunker build loregryn
it's gonna be so bad though

celest valve
compact coyote
#

well anyways, so any fun builds i could take into auric and havoc?

strange wyvern
compact coyote
celest valve
#

you can also just wait for them to fire once

wooden sand
#

No fun allowed in using the best build

celest valve
#

....and maybe dodge while charging I forgot if you can.

strange wyvern
compact coyote
#

i know i can dodge while charging

#

and i thought that was what you meant

#

thinkin' to get into havoc just for those legendary outfits for each class.

#

especially ogryn and psyker, though mainly psyker

#

kinda like the judge dredd ass helmet he gets, even if i might consider not using it.

#

got my krieg gas mask after all, despite krieg probably not even really using psykers.

wraith sphinx
#

also unrelated but I just heard a scab gunner ingame call out a nearby poxburster, very neat

marble crater
#

Secret loyalist scab?

compact coyote
#

so what skills should i focus on for efficiency anyways?

#

anything that requires perils to gain toughness?

marble crater
#

I just joined the conversation, did you check the pins yet?

#

Warp Expenditure is just a worse Quietude, if you mean that talent for gaining toughness

compact coyote
#

so don't take expendature, but everything else is better?

marble crater
#

If we are talking about the toughness talents at the top then yeah, everything is a lot better

As someone who runs blaze force greatsword plus double barrel anything is possible

it is

but will it be fun

picked quietude, battle med, smite and perks, toughness damage reduction, mind in motion, lightning speed, warp splitting, kinetic presence, anticipation, scrier's gaze and perks (with reality anchor), warp rider, and empowered psionics with perks (bio-lodestone, cause i can't count on gettin' to the elites before anyone else.

Well blade force sword for groups and carapace and shotgun for monstrosities as well as smite and yes it will be fun and goofy

#

talkin' to me?

karmic temple
#

No

#

The one who asked if it’s fun

strange wyvern
karmic temple
#

Also true

compact coyote
#

actually tried double barrel with psyker my self, by the way. think i prefer the full auto-guns for psyker though. maybe the revolvers and bolt guns too.

strange wyvern
#

Combat shotty taking 2 shots to clear trash 🔥

karmic temple
#

Yea but as someone who uses both I love the satisfaction factor of double barrel

compact coyote
#

i get that. think it's most fun on a zealout with the charge ability though.

#

just charge in, and give 'em both barrels right in the face.

karmic temple
#

Not necessarily run a movement speed scrier psyker and it can get very dumb

wary flax
#

Man, what are these teammates.

Hey, a boss spawned, time to separate so a psyker has to fight it all by himself, that's a good idea.

#

Bruh.

karmic temple
#

Yea I that happens a lot

#

Low rank? If so teammates dunno what sticking together means

compact coyote
#

eh, i've been gettin' good at slaughtering everything that comes close to me anyways using a basic force sword.

karmic temple
#

Scary monstrosity coming every person for themselves

compact coyote
#

doesn't even have to be a force sword, could be an excessively long knife.

#

speaking of knives, is there any real reason to use the combat knife?

wraith sphinx
#

I did wimp out and take ep on my bb gunker tho
bb is so atrociously slow esp without it

compact coyote
#

it doesn't seem the most efficient at killing the enemy as the catachan knife

wary flax
compact coyote
#

ah, ok

#

there any psyker knives?

karmic temple
#

It’s great for crowd surfing

wary flax
#

Also with the right blessings you can easily kill crushers with it.

karmic temple
#

Most things are too slow to hit you as long as you don’t get to close with the speed

compact coyote
#

lemme guess, make it do more damage to carapace, right?

strange wyvern
compact coyote
#

speakin' of armor, which is carapace and which is flak, it's hard for me to tell.

karmic temple
#

Why tank the demo host if it’s not there anymore am I right KEKW_ogryn

wary flax
#

Yeah, I was blocking a chaos spawn jsut fine, but eventually I fucked up a grab dodge.

compact coyote
#

i kinda have a feeling crushers wear carapace if anything.

wary flax
placid saffron
#

Anyone up for damnation run?

strange wyvern
compact coyote
#

ok, so special scabs like crusher, mauler, and rager are carapace, while ever other scab like bombers, sniper, and trapper are flak?

wary flax
#

Crushers wear full carapace, maulers have carapace helmets and flak body armor, armored ragers have flak helmets and carapace chests, other ragers are Maniac (which is also most specialists).

Bosses and ogryns without armor are Unyielding.

#

If any trash mob has armor - it's flak.

compact coyote
#

ogryns without armor, ey?

wary flax
#

Poxwalkers and dogs are infested.

compact coyote
#

so the plague ogryn then?

placid saffron
#

Join strike party 3 for damnation run

compact coyote
#

woulda' taken plague ogryn for infested.

wary flax
#

All bosses are unyielding, I'm pretty sure.

compact coyote
#

cause i know reapers and bulwarks wear chain mail, and i think the bulwark's shield is carapace.

wary flax
#

Infested is poxwalkers and dogs.

compact coyote
#

ah

wary flax
compact coyote
#

so what exactly is unyielding anyways?

wary flax
#

Armor type.

compact coyote
#

well how's it work?

radiant frigate
#

think Big Stuff™ (that isn't armored)

#

#

karmic temple
#

i think if he is asking if unyielding has specific modifiers like less damage or something i think

#

like how some bullets don't penetrate some armor

radiant frigate
#

some things do less damage to unyielding

#

some do more

#

like with almost all armor types

karmic temple
#

ye i know i think he was askin if anyone know the stat spread or where to find

#

i never looked into because if it died thats good enough

unless the mission lasted 10s

or there was only chaff

wraith sphinx

must have missed it then

compact coyote
#

so which is better for shriek, creeping flames, or warp rupture?

#

cause i decided to take a look at my brain burst build in the psykanium have a flamer staff equipped to apply soul blaze, soul blazed every frozen enemy, and i keep hearing death sounds.

wraith sphinx
compact coyote
#

also, if i do brain burst, shriek, and let's say kinetic presence all together, how good will that be?

plucky flax

Yes

i'm also taking warp siphon for this.
