psyker-class

[strong gulch]

That's usually me. Sorry if the pacing was bad with just me. My brains are very stop and go and funny times.

oh feck I'm late feeding the animals

[gray juniper]

Forced gun play. Anti magic prejudices. Wizard hate movement. Magic stick holder hate

[hearty wolf]

Oh no that's more than fine. It's just my actual movement speed

It's so bad xd

[strong gulch]

lmao ye it's not fast

[hearty wolf]

There is a lack of specialist density and since my shotgun doesn't 1 shot, I can't keep up any kind of buffs

[strong gulch]

at least it's not baby vet

that shit sucks

[hearty wolf]

Even on zealot I'm taking speed nodes now cos movement speed is king

fuck baby vet

Oh yeah

the stam regen on Arbites

seems pretty damn good, no?

[strong gulch]

yeah it is

I forget what it is but it's good

[hearty wolf]

I don't think it's as fast as Psyker but it's probably Zealot (or better)

@summer prairie

hii, provide info? :)

[vestal trench]

for gunker i'd only take heavy las pistol if i value the mobility and force push utility right? otherwise go for recon las instead?

edit: nevermind answered my own question, i thought laspistol didn't have access to both dumdum and infernus for some reason 💀

[sturdy reef]

0.5s stam delay regen, 1 stam regen rate. Same as psyker

but with better base stam at 3

[hearty wolf]

It's BETTER?

[strong gulch]

THANK YOU

[hearty wolf]

Yoooooooooooo

[sturdy reef]

ya

[plucky flax]

Arby shield dog fail this is very sad.

[sturdy reef]

arbites goated for stam

[wheat monolith]

what if we used 100% of our brain

[deft stump]

Is why I said they are literally OP.

You can psyker slide for free.

Vets need 2 bloody nodes for it.

[hearty wolf]

Put it down

[plucky flax]

366k damage on dawg? Xd

[sturdy reef]

it means arbites abuses the shit out of taxe just like psyker

and the MK4 is pretty strong rn

castigators -> forceful with mk4 taxe is braindead on h40

[pine shore]

Still no idea which taxe is best

I've seen all 3 answers

[sturdy reef]

try em out

lol

[pine shore]

Some say 2, some 4, some 7

I don't want to

[pearl viper]

the one you like the most

[sturdy reef]

2 is my least fav

okay, then dont ask lmao

[pine shore]

4 looks like the worst one

[sturdy reef]

then it is

[zinc comet]

you know in your heart which one is best

[pine shore]

Shit, do I actually have to play the game to figure out which is best?

[ripe obsidian]

Dog is not at fault here

[sturdy reef]

tragic

[plucky flax]

Dawg is a big stooped but he tries.

I hate how I send him far away then he just comes back.

Without sticking around that area to kill more elite/special.

[ripe obsidian]

That's why I use the ranged dog node

It increases the targeting range from 16m radius to like 40m

[plucky flax]

Does it behave better? I'm using the elite dawg keystone.

[ripe obsidian]

I think it behaves better

[plucky flax]

I thought both of them increase range.

Or maybe I am wrong.

[sturdy reef]

ranged dog node is the way

it also wont fuck with bursters

[ripe obsidian]

Nope

[plucky flax]

Okay I need the range increase.

That's the main one.

I can try.

Am washed but better than a bot

I am launching the game, 30 seconds

[patent steeple]

I think I have found my new favourite normal-sized force sword version, that being obscurus!

its the perfect middle ground between the horde clear of illisi, and the single target of deimos, making obscurus perfect for almost any non-EK staff build (on EK builds I use mk1 dclaw with Rampage and Shred, and on gunker I use FGS)

[remote shadow]

I'm losing my mind.

[hearty wolf]

omg

@strong gulch I HAVE TO GO BACK TO MALICE TO LEVEL SOLO

WTF IS THIS

😭

[deft stump]

10 wins to fill the bar.

Not 5.

10 wins

10 heresy and 10 damnation.

i feel like i got out of damnation in less than 10

[ripe obsidian]

@plucky flax how much longer do you think you will be playing?

[plucky flax]

I'm stopping now it's near midnight.

I did 366k dawg damage one game earlier.

[strong gulch]

We'll do better at some point.

[strong gulch]

Good night

[sturdy reef]

I love my ping

[plucky flax]

[sturdy reef]

gn

[strong gulch]

my ping wasn't great but was doable

need a break for now anyways

[pine shore]

Damn

Didn't expect rending trauma to be this useless

Perhaps I'm gonna leave this build for aurics

[strong gulch]

I swear the stagger is different this patch

[ripe obsidian]

Dang

[plucky flax]

I dunno if they made havoc harder or I'm just playing much worse cos I'm not on psyker or ogryn.

[strong gulch]

previously it was great

still is but I've been having stagger issues outside of havocs that were not durring the immunity window

[strong gulch]

why not both

[plucky flax]

Tru

Imo ogryn is better than arby.

[strong gulch]

I'm still new to the "newwe" havocs tbh. I haven't been playing them.

[deft stump]

I thought we already knew that?

[strong gulch]

There's plenty of quirks that I am not familiar with.

[plucky flax]

I knew that. Do you?

[deft stump]

Arby is mini oggy for a reason.

[plucky flax]

Oggy can go into backline more free.

Because of bigger cleave compared to arby.

And confident strike skullcrusher combo.

[sturdy reef]

ogryn too good

[plucky flax]

Maybe I need to play the regular shock maul for that combo.

But its poop damage compared to arby maul.

[sturdy reef]

also still deciding between mk4 and mk7 taxe

[deft stump]

But you have built in confident strike since you stagger on literally every hit.

[plucky flax]

Maybe I drop 1 damage blessing for confident strike.

[plucky flax]

No you don't cleave as much.

Bruh do you even play arby in h40?

[sturdy reef]

Im not finding I need conf strike on arby tbh

[plucky flax]

Try to stagger a wall of crusher and bulwarks healing each other.

You just can't cleave through them all.

Oggy can charge right through and kite easier with super long charge.

[sturdy reef]

ogryn can just use the branx

I like arby way more than zealot tbh

[plucky flax]

Karien you flame me way too much.

I am very sad.

[sturdy reef]

Ogryn > arby > zealot > vet

[plucky flax]

Yeah with the right keystone it's very good toughness gen.

[sturdy reef]

Psyker is outside because most people dont pilot psyker well

lol

[deft stump]

But isn't that the thing? Oggies are broken. They tried to make Arbites "worse" than oggy. But Arbites are stronger than Zealot and Vet by a very obvious margin. Psyker be psyker. Paper glass cannon.

[sturdy reef]

right keystone gonna get nerfed

also buff middle keystone

either right keystone nerf or break the line nerf

[deft stump]

What.

[sturdy reef]

middle keystone tree also easily the worst out of the three

[plucky flax]

This.

[sturdy reef]

has 2 good nodes

[plucky flax]

Can I see your arby gameplay staggering everything.

In h40 with a bunch of ogryns charging you down.

[strong gulch]

lmao

[plucky flax]

Update your ovenproof.

So you don't get chat spam.

[strong gulch]

I will remember one day

How do I do it manually?

[plucky flax]

No there's a patch on nexus.

Just click drag.

[strong gulch]

The plugin for the plugin with boobs

[plucky flax]

Ye the sus looking boobies ovenproof.

[strong gulch]

I'll figure it out eventually.

[deft stump]

As in, Arbites have a node that just gives them that since if you are using Arby weapons... they just stagger something on every hit. So couldn't they use some other blessing instead of taking that?

[plucky flax]

I like using shield special against burster it's very cool.

[pine shore]

yea, it's cool

But for some reason dash doesn't work

You will just explode because bursters don't care

[plucky flax]

It works but you have to time it really well

Its too risky

[pine shore]

But it looks SICK

[plucky flax]

I dont know you tell me since youre pro

I dont even know what youre on about.

[pine shore]

https://i.vgy.me/RUiGCK.png

This is not confident strike

[plucky flax]

It doesn't work against monsters

[pine shore]

confident strike is much better and always works

I would put confident strike on maul and shield

[deft stump]

Maybe I should just go sleep. Over two days isn't helping train of thoughts and such.

[pine shore]

Opportunist is not THAT important

[plucky flax]

I use confident strike high voltage on shield

[pine shore]

Have not played it in havoc yet

[deft stump]

You don't really have a good source of bleed for it to be worth anyway.

[hearty wolf]

i want to do 366k with dog

but my dog is still small :(

[sturdy reef]

[plucky flax]

Dawg sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt

Mysterious creature

[deft stump]

I mean, the IRL gremlins are the same anyway.

[hearty wolf]

download, drag and drop into folder

that's it

i screenshare it even xd

[plucky flax]

I prefer cat

Give arby pet cat

[deft stump]

I already asked for that. I wanted a big cat... Leopard or white tiger.

[hearty wolf]

how does the arby shock maul even fair in havoc anyway?

[sturdy reef]

its goated

[plucky flax]

It does huge single target damage with very decent horde clear

[deft stump]

White tiger seemed cooler at that point in time.

[gray juniper]

I want a cheetah irl but I have a child so that’s not very responsible lol

[hearty wolf]

Oh dude that's so good to hear :)))

i'm excited to level now

[plucky flax]

Heavy light single target dps is bonker

[deft stump]

Or a Lioness, they pounce their prey and hunt in groups as well.

[hearty wolf]

I'm free from FotF spam

now I have whatever the fuck the other shove dash thing is

[plucky flax]

Real og call it chastise the wicked

[hearty wolf]

I've called it chastise for so long that I was confused when I looked it up

cos it didn't match have abilities connected xd

[blissful pulsar]

Any tips for building a combat shotgun on a gaze psyker? Wanna give it a go

[gray juniper]

There’s brand new people going into havocs with garbage gear and no idea how heinous ritual works :((( oddball was right

[blissful pulsar]

Maxed out mastery and got a 60% mobility one to template

[zinc phoenix]

I had to explain it to one guy after he yolo’d the hex while the team was dealing with double chaos spawn

[deft stump]

Anyway, gonna force a nap. It's like nearly 3 days now.

[gray juniper]

Double daemonhost spawn be they skipped over the last one after i cleared the front side. So they’re fighting the first one and we’re moving into another one

Two different teams too btw

[jovial juniper]

Full Bore agripina

Always aim down sights

Get Surety of Arms

If affects your loading special ammo as well

[static panther]

the boltgun in this game is good but I'm starting to doubt a 40k game will ever have a lore accurate bolter

now granted, those things are OP

like, 40-60 bolts in a mag

all of them blowing things up

[blissful pulsar]

rogue trader?

Because argenta with a bolter shoots like 20 rounds and kills everyone in a cone

[pine shore]

I always thought darktide doesn't have actual bolters

We have boltguns which are actually useable by normal humans

but I have no idea if this is true

[static panther]

yeah that one was pretty accurate

[static panther]

they're both bolters, they just have different versions

there's the astartes one

which is so heavy and kicks so hard that using it would break your arm and several ribs

then the standard one which is for anyone else

this is not the general chat I'm sorry

[pine shore]

So I was almost correct

It's just that bolter and boltgun is the same thing, just different names?

[static panther]

yeah

[strong gulch]

Like any other mod? Is there an order it has to be in for the loader?

[plucky flax]

It overwrites the vanilla ovenproof

[pine oyster]

so, is there a better way to apply soul flame other than the fire wand and Venting shriek at about 80%-97% ?

[hearty wolf]

no you already have the mod

by downloading it and replacing your current one, it just updates

[dusty wagon]

Yes, so if you follow the left side of the skill tree, there are a few nodes that increase soulflame spread

[hearty wolf]

no need to wrry about anything else

[pine oyster]

any ideas as to how i can make it stronger?

[dusty wagon]

1 second, I'll share a build

[fierce crest]

do Quietude and Warp Expenditure count excess peril?

[dusty wagon]

Okay, only important part is the talent tree. I didn't edit anything else.
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9f443718-6dcb-4f47-99f6-61743126f81f/firebrand?utm_medium=website&utm_source=gameslantern&utm_campaign=share_button

[strong gulch]

My brain is cooked. I am having trouble remembering words even. Not trying to be obtuse.

Do I put the updated plugin in the darktide mods folder or into the original ovenproof folder.

[pine oyster]

that's going in the link Vault. cheers!

[dusty wagon]

https://tenor.com/view/cheers-toast-salute-here's-to-you-heres-to-you-gif-3182433711752800466

[fierce crest]

if you put it in the original folder it will overwrite and should work

if you put it in its own folder you have to add it to the load order seperatly

but as long as its lower in the order it will also work

i did the second one

i havent tested just overwriting but it should be functionally the same

[pine oyster]

i've got a few suggestions on how to maximise the crowd control aspects of this build.

[pine shore]

Is this for purgatus?

[fierce crest]

If I have 10% peril and I Venting Shriek does that count as 10% or 50% quelled?

[pine oyster]

https://tenor.com/view/shrek-shrek-meme-shrek-good-question-good-question-gif-7176451729184982026

[fierce crest]

Similarly, if I have 90% peril and I activate a Force Sword, does that count as 10% or ~20% generated

[hearty wolf]

the thing you download is called mods, open it up and then you get the ovenproof_scoreboard or whatever. Just drag and drop that into the mods folder into where your darktide mods are stored

then it will ask if you want to replace

and you say yes

cos gigachad

[pine oyster]

would you like to see what i've projected for my Crowd control Flame build? it's a W.i.p at the moment, i'm almost lv 25, but i'd like some feedback

[pine shore]

if you want a purgatus build, please just do this

https://i.vgy.me/tQiAvS.png

[pine oyster]

what the fuck is a purgatus?

[pine shore]

uhh

whatever the fuck it's called now

hellfire staff

inferno

Boring ass name

[pine oyster]

i don't see the point tho, arbites kill all the specialists before the skull crushing blitz can.

it needs a damage buff imo. (idk, i'm lv 24)

[pine shore]

It does

A bit

[fierce crest]

weird suggestion, i think its damage is fine until havoc

its the speed that sucks

[pine oyster]

it should one tap mutants at least.

[pine shore]

no it shouldn't

That would be 4000 damage

Which is more than crusher has health

[jovial juniper]

Can't quell -1% nor generate 101% peril

[pine oyster]

it can kill crushers?

[fierce crest]

if it 1shot mutants it would 1shot crushers

[jovial juniper]

Not quite

[pine shore]

It wouldn't neccecerily because of adm

but it's still 4000 damage

[jovial juniper]

Mutants take 3 times melee damage

[spare comet]

real ogs still call them trauma & purgatus

[pine shore]

idk the exact brain burts adms

[jovial juniper]

It's

1800 with EP against Carapace

~1300 without

[fierce crest]

and vs maniac?

[pine oyster]

i call it "arson crack"

[pine shore]

we call them purgatus and trauma because new names suck, they are boring and unoriginal

[fierce crest]

surge staff my beloved

[spare comet]

oh yeah i forgot surge staff was renamed too

[pine oyster]

not even the "fuegonasus special"?

[jovial juniper]

.

[fierce crest]

but electro is probly a better name so theres no overlap with the blessing

[pine shore]

that one's ok

[fierce crest]

and we get to abbreviate it EK

very efficient

[strong gulch]

Arby's damage is no longer filling chat, but the dog's is. With both versions of the updated plugin

[jovial juniper]

?????

[fierce crest]

correct, it wouldnt 1shot crushers if it did 4k to mutants

~270 damage short

[jovial juniper]

Huh
EP should be an extra 50% to BB

[hearty wolf]

did you get the "beta"

one?

[pine oyster]

i fucking hate mutants... not a roadblock, just tanky as fuck.

[strong gulch]

I've tried both. Currently non-beta

[fierce crest]

thats why they take triple damage from melee

[hearty wolf]

non beta works for me

[jovial juniper]

So
1350 to a Crusher with 50%
Should be 2025

[hearty wolf]

i mena

beta

works for me

[jovial juniper]

Not 1800

Wth is going on

[pine shore]

no one's using bb anyway

[strong gulch]

I give up for now. I can't do it.

[jovial juniper]

Is Fatshark stealing damage from us

[pine oyster]

Why did the put the chainaxe on psyker

[fierce crest]

i feel like they show up but are greyed out

[pine oyster]

does it show up at 24 or 25?

[strong gulch]

idk when FGS unlocks

[jovial juniper]

Because 40k wizard

[proper osprey]

Show me the chainaxe psyker build please

[fierce crest]

yeah darktide is really good about hiding how to unlock stuff after you unlock it

[fierce crest]

same as normal axe

[jovial juniper]

When they gave free aquillas I bought the ogryn shield cosmetic

Because everything else sucked

[pine shore]

it's not crit

[hearty wolf]

another fucker using smite in malice

[pine oyster]

it's a damage enhancer, tho.

closest thing

[pine shore]

It's not crit

[strong gulch]

no

crits proc a lot of stuff

[pine oyster]

closest. thing.

[strong gulch]

If it can crit then it can use a lot of talents or proc them. If it can't, then it can.

[jovial juniper]

Ok, but it's not a CRIT
So smite can't crit

18 to 22 seconds EP smite to kill them

[pine shore]

KILL

[jovial juniper]

[pine oyster]

i'm crowd control, not my job.

[gray juniper]

Sorry position is taken!

[pine shore]

YOU'rE KILL

[strong gulch]

Don't worry, 40 ragers with die all at once in one business day.

[gray juniper]

*using smite

[jovial juniper]

8 seconds

https://tenor.com/view/nariukiyo-dj-khaled-gif-23966368

[gray juniper]

More than 8 seconds and you’re just playing with it

[pine oyster]

i don't have the build for it yet.

i'm learning assail on the side for now.

[hearty wolf]

you know what else is crowd control

killing the enemies

[strong gulch]

assail is cc

[hearty wolf]

introducing purg staff

[strong gulch]

eating yogurt with a fork is cursed

[pine oyster]

that's why i use a warpfire build, to kill fodder enemies, considering how many arbites i encounter that delete elites like it's breathing.

[hearty wolf]

that good

as long as it doesn't include smite

[gray juniper]

After a game with a smite player

[hearty wolf]

Auidibly made me laugh

fuck

that actually made me tear up

[strong gulch]

no "on dodge" or parry for you

[pine oyster]

i'm not putting points into an aspect i'm unable to do, due to the ammount of people running "pick" builds.

[strong gulch]

rip if you have a crusher pack with a smyker and you have a devil's claw

[hearty wolf]

That game

I was trying to explain to my girlfriend

how fucking boring smite was

during the finale

I got up

and was like

[strong gulch]

totally not based on a real life example

[hearty wolf]

"Look I won't even get hit"

and I did a whole fucking dance

petted my cat

Began making tea

came back

and legit

still hadn't been hit

[strong gulch]

cat gaming

[hearty wolf]

this guy still holding smite 2m later

[pine oyster]

you're exaggerating

[gray juniper]

I’m crying

[hearty wolf]

I'm not

I thought I was going to be exaggerating

But somehow no

[pine oyster]

drop the patch version, there's no way.

[hearty wolf]

this is why smyker is dumb af

Maybe that's why it's called venting shriek

[gray juniper]

Sins smite hero while he’s making tea

[pine oyster]

it's to set people on fire like a heat sink

[hearty wolf]

it's a soulless ability fueled by the sadness of all the others who have to play with these nomlings

[hearty wolf]

"hero"

[strong gulch]

Legit. Yogurt + fork sucks. Too bad that's all I have right now.

[zinc phoenix]

I will actively attempt to yeet bursters at smytkers

And barrel

[hearty wolf]

ily

[zinc phoenix]

Sorry not sorry

[hearty wolf]

I love killing them

then just running past their rescure

in fact I add more rope to them

I'll kill them while they're rescuse

d

[gray juniper]

Break off the tongs carefully and use it like a spoon 😉

[hearty wolf]

perma execution

[zinc phoenix]

It’s too bad we can’t team kill 😢

[pine oyster]

you bash crowd control psychers so much, but have no idea how fun it really is.

[strong gulch]

[jovial juniper]

if you can't hunt with a dog
Hunt with a cat

[hearty wolf]

yeah I'll show you what to do

if you press windows key

you get this

if you hit shutdown

you get the same gameplay as a smyker

[strong gulch]

either would just eat the yogurt

prob for the best.

I don't process dairy the best

[hearty wolf]

Okay that's enough hating for today

[pine oyster]

jokes on you. i'm on console.

[gray juniper]

This is a good time to tell the legend of Mishima

[hearty wolf]

I will be back tomorrow with more complaints about smykers

Anyway

[zinc phoenix]

It’s really fun killing smytkers 🙏

[hearty wolf]

level 19 Arby

doesn't seem to say what the

default range is?

[zinc phoenix]

Not big

Maybe 2-3m

[hearty wolf]

worth the talent point then ya?

[pine oyster]

like how zealots charge in only to get their shit wrecked by a crusher i refused to stunlock.

[zinc phoenix]

You must play with some real salt of the earth types

[jovial juniper]

Bro's not a hater😭

[zinc phoenix]

What difficulty, heresy?

[jovial juniper]

You gotta drop that smite diss track homie

[hearty wolf]

it's an act but the more I talk about it, the more I actually feel it's real

[pine oyster]

randoms who can't dodge, yes.

[hearty wolf]

it's consuming me

[zinc phoenix]

Oh I’m not acting

I will absolutely barrel them

I’ve done it no shame

[jovial juniper]

https://tenor.com/view/spider-man-cover-up-i-got-you-gif-24417255

Real

[zinc phoenix]

If they’re occasional smite users fine that’s cool

But the tape down button crowd I will execute anytime

[strong gulch]

@hearty wolf it's time

[zinc phoenix]

Even Vader team killed one

[hearty wolf]

yay

[pine oyster]

i've saved games using smite, it's underrated as a utility.

[hearty wolf]

xd

Where did you guys find this stray

[gray juniper]

So we’re at clandestime glorianum because I’m trying to unlock auric still
There’s a smyker named Mishima. He’s hanging in the back carefully the whole game
I’m trying out Chaos’s bubble knight and it’s killing it
Only problem is Mishima is literally following me everywhere and laying into smite from behind me

At the end of the match where the mobs coming I’m going to town and running everywhere. Literally sprinting to get by myself

Nope. Mishima right behind me

I’m on the most thumb blistering roll ever trying make a kill count for my own

Game feed like

“Mishima killed dreg gunner”
“Mishima killed mutant”
“Mishima killed rager”
“Mishima killed sniper
“Mishima killed rager”…

[zinc phoenix]

Probably sedition reject

[crude cape]

is inferno staff 'warpfire' dmg or no

think my scoreboard isnt working

but not sure

[pine oyster]

i'm level 24, still learning the game.

came here for criticism, not blind ignorance

[hearty wolf]

I see

Well choosing smite is like consent

you need to ask first

[gray juniper]

Nothing wrong with that

[zinc phoenix]

You will become much better much faster doing literally anything else

[gray juniper]

I’m fairly new also

[strong gulch]

@wispy bay you wanna join us to finish leveling arbys?

[zinc phoenix]

I am an ancient from the days of yore 🙏

[wispy bay]

Sure

[strong gulch]

kk

[hearty wolf]

Yeah this is geniuinely real. Using smite as a tool will make it much harder to adapt to other parts of psyker

[spare comet]

i've seen some people here be really cunty to people asking questions

[hearty wolf]

not only that

[spare comet]

just ignore them or tell them to sod off

[hearty wolf]

But playing something like Vet after psyker

You're gonna have a bad time

[pine oyster]

i can't, the arbites are too powerful for me to be useful in any other way... i can't kill elites, BB is too slow. they're too efficient

[spare comet]

wat

[hearty wolf]

Psyker is shit until 30 basically

it has always been that way

[pine oyster]

i used to be a vet main, lv25.

[zinc phoenix]

BB is quite bad sadly

[hearty wolf]

^

[spare comet]

They're not. Psyker is just kind of rough to level.

[hearty wolf]

assail is a pretty damn good blitz while levelling

[pine oyster]

so what am i supposed to do other than tase priority targets?

[spare comet]

Every wizard class in video games is shit at low levels

[wispy bay]

You are not any main if you are not even at level 30...

[zinc phoenix]

Learn to melee with psyker and you will learn a ton of useful skills that scale well into high difficulty

[jovial juniper]

https://tenor.com/view/end-of-watch-locker-scene-jake-gyllenhaal-gif-8856476536569176567

Gun psyker

[spare comet]

I'm still leveling my Psyker (at 15 right now) and I just use Assail and the MK8 Greatsword

[jovial juniper]

[spare comet]

staffs are kind of shit for a while

[hearty wolf]

if you right click to aim with assail and then through, it has better damage and insane range

worst case you dump 2 shards to kill whatever

also remember assail can headshot

[zinc phoenix]

Longer cast time tho

[pine oyster]

you mean my ass-ail build?

[zinc phoenix]

Yeah assail is extremely effective for bullying other players

[hearty wolf]

yeah but I assume if it's a prio target, you're gonna be right clicking cos they're further

[zinc phoenix]

It mulches through anything that isn’t carapace or boss

[hearty wolf]

otherwise you need to full release those shards all over the screen

[spare comet]

i just run scrier's gaze assail + the assail recharge talent

go my psychic rocks

[pine oyster]

is scriers gaze really worth it for a new player? it seems like it's bad on paper.

[zinc phoenix]

The pinned builds in here are all solid

[spare comet]

No Scrier's Gaze is awesome

[zinc phoenix]

It’s extremely powerful

[spare comet]

Bad for bad players

Amazing for good players

[jovial juniper]

I would say no

[zinc phoenix]

Couple it with disrupt destiny and you get to have a lot of fun in melee

[spare comet]

i love gaze and get solid mileage out of it

[zinc phoenix]

Idk how it is during leveling tho

[spare comet]

but i have like

400 hours and 3 level 30 characters

[zinc phoenix]

They added all this stuff long after I leveled psyker

[spare comet]

im used to the game's song and dance

[pine oyster]

this seems like it heavily relies on accuracy...

[spare comet]

if you're new to the game i would run shield

shield also very good

big middle finger to gunners

[zinc phoenix]

These are all solid builds #psyker-class message

[spare comet]

when you get really into the general gameplay flow on higher difficulties i would absolutely try scrier's gaze if you want a nasty melee psyker

i am planning to do assail/gaze/disrupt for my psyker by level 30

with the greatsword

because its fun as hell to use

[pine oyster]

i know that, i'm not doubting. it's just that i'm not good at aiming and haven't found a sensitivity i'm comfy with.

[spare comet]

the special reminds me of fromsoft game moonlight swords

lol

[warm flare]

scorebored isnt updated for arbites

still updates properly for what any arbites class does it just goes crazy in chat from it

[pine oyster]

do i have to get the kill for disrupt destiny, at least?

if so, i'll ask the randoms to hang back and let me have fun.

assuming they speak english, that is.

[gray juniper]

@spare comet @pine oyster we can all run a lobby together to level you guys if you want. I’m on but only playing for grabbing diamantine right now. Perfect to show you guys some things and make good builds for you

[spare comet]

that would be appreciated

psyker and zealot are my only other classes to max out

then i will have all level 30s

[zinc phoenix]

You do have to get the kill but on higher difficulties it’s less of an issue. I’m guessing you are still on one of the lower ones at 24

[pine oyster]

i can't do that, it's late and the folks are sleeping...

[pine oyster]

100%

and again, arbites don't fuck around.

[gray juniper]

No mics required if you’d like

[zinc phoenix]

You can also try bumping the difficulty up a notch. You’ll probably die but it won’t be the worst way to learn. Make sure not to bother with wound curios, every other kind of curio is more effective b/c they keep you alive

[pine oyster]

stuck on heresy atm.

[gray juniper]

Man I died so so so much early on

[zinc phoenix]

Wound curios are making yourself weaker to be picked up more

[pine oyster]

soo, run toughness and health exclusively?

[spare comet]

arbites are not as OP as you're making them out to be

[gray juniper]

You can add me to your party using the game code in my name from the social tab

[spare comet]

it's just because EVERYONE is playing them right now

lol

[pine oyster]

on heresy? are you sure?

[spare comet]

Yes

[analog agate]

Everyone is OP on heresy

[spare comet]

True

[jovial juniper]

If you pick the Lingering Influence modifier of Disrupt Destiny, you can have a really high uptime on the buff, also damaging the marked target refreshes your current stacks

[spare comet]

Arbites is strong but not as strong as you are saying

[jovial juniper]

Just avoid Perfectionism for a while

Unlike me

[pine oyster]

except psykers like me who go crowd control due to greedy arbites stealing all the kills.

[analog agate]

I get that you are leveling. But as a psyker I will kill all the enemies before arby can even get to them

[dusty wagon]

Kills aren't important, crowd control is essential, you are needed psyker.

[pine oyster]

https://tenor.com/view/captain-holt-brooklyn-nine-nine-brooklyn99-captain-raymond-holt-andre-braugher-gif-13945912

[gray juniper]

Yea they are late. Commerce to the new DLC but yes, it’s old heads mostly

[spare comet]

Not when I steal their job on Ogryn

go my karsolas heavy spam

[gray juniper]

@spare comet guessing this is you in my party now?

[pine oyster]

i run smite, your next line is something related to how smite allegedly sucks.

[spare comet]

yep

[gray juniper]

Ok please gimme a couple minutes kitty wants to play and she was sad when I wasn’t

[pine oyster]

i'll be on, let me find my phone and boot up the xbox.

[dusty wagon]

There are better options for sure. Smite is good crowd control. But if everyone else is dead it won't help you.

[pine oyster]

it's why i run warpfire to make up for horde damage.

staff and passive warpfire stuff, i mean.

[spare comet]

It doesn't.

[gray juniper]

@spare comet ok think she’s down for now. Game on?

[crude cape]

i downloaded the ovenproof update, and im playing psyker flamestaff but it says warpfire dmg 0

[gray juniper]

Sure

[crude cape]

is flamestaff itself warpfire?

[dusty wagon]

It's good if you can make it work. Just know that in Havoc, you might be shooting yourself in the foot.

[pine oyster]

it applies warpfire stacks, good for getting the arson started.

[dusty wagon]

That's why I use all the talents I shared earlier, fire spreads for any reason and every kill on affected enemies gives you toughness back.

[pine oyster]

i run forcesword with deflector and am aiming to get the peril blocking thing to maximise it.

[pine oyster]

i'm aiming to run a build, if you're curious would you like to see it?

[spare comet]

i've been using fyrestone's melee build as a reference thus far

[pine oyster]

it's what i'd choose if i were lv 30...

[dusty wagon]

Sure, Psyker was my first level 30 character, so I could take a look.

[analog agate]

Ahhhh, the build with warp expenditure

[pine oyster]

alright.

[gray juniper]

@spare comet gonna wait on @pine oyster then you guys boot up what you’re comfortable with. Mic up preferably

[pine oyster]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9f443a04-c672-405d-b98b-e778ddb8c113/psyker-flame-build

[jovial juniper]

I don't have an actual proper answer
But the stream itself is considered a Warp attack that applies Soulblaze, which should be the warp fire

[gray juniper]

Or let me know you can here me

[analog agate]

Yes, all dmg from that staff is soulblaze

[spare comet]

i dont play with mic 💔

[pine oyster]

Logging in rq.

[gray juniper]

Ok that’s cool just type then

[hearty wolf]

it's time to upgrade

[strong gulch]

gg @hearty wolf

[spare comet]

dont worry i type fast

[pine oyster]

Ready.

[gray juniper]

Add me from code

[gray juniper]

I’d assume. It’s fine with me

[dusty wagon]

That's pretty solid, I personally don't like to rely on crit chance unless I can get at least 50%. It has less survivability, but if you want to set everything on fire, I would recommend making a second preset and trying the build I shared.

[hearty wolf]

I got a damage node from that run

so am even stronker

[pine oyster]

Wait, the build relies on crit chance?

[dusty wagon]

The blessing you have on your greatsword.

[pine oyster]

Added

[jovial juniper]

https://tenor.com/view/cornman-corn-man-corn-time-time-gif-20345758

[pine oyster]

I'll rework it. It's only a concept anyway.

[gray juniper]

Yes. You’re not putting up huge damage using both smite and purge staff at the same time. Diemos is poweful but it’s only your melee not distance

[dusty wagon]

It's not a bad choice, but likely your source of soulblaze will be the staff

[gray juniper]

@pine oyster @spare comet get your builds how you want then start up a level you’re comfy with

[pine oyster]

Yeah, distance is the one area i'm not focusing on...

[pine oyster]

Your mic is working.

[dusty wagon]

Do you need a fourth?

[gray juniper]

If they don’t mind

[gray juniper]

Are you saying you can hear me?

[pine oyster]

I heard something bump the mic at least.

[gray juniper]

Ok good you guys can hear me then. Yea I’ll start talking when we get to the game

[spare comet]

damnation time

[pine oyster]

https://tenor.com/view/war-vietnam-ptsd-shell-shock-moment-gif-3022747568394546158

i cant queue into damnation yet tho

Suffering builds character

[dusty wagon]

If you want a fourth lmk

[zinc phoenix]

If you have someone who can you can

[spare comet]

TRIAL BY FIRE BABY

[gray juniper]

@pine oyster @spare comet how about @dusty wagon comes along?

[spare comet]

WOOOO

WE RUN THIS

[spare comet]

sounds fine to me

[crude cape]

just getting weird stuff from ovenproof + new update playing flame staff. no warpfire dmg, my melee dmg higher than ranged? counting the flame staff somehow as melee?

[pine oyster]

I'm down.

[gray juniper]

@dusty wagon add from code

[spare comet]

im feeling masochistic today

lets do shock troop gauntlet rolling steel

[pine oyster]

@dusty wagon have you joined?

[dusty wagon]

Yes, do you have a voice channel?

[pine oyster]

We should probably do that. I can join on xbox so i'm covered.

@gray juniper do you have access to Discord VC on your xbox?

Asking In case we decide to move to a Team VC.

[gray juniper]

Yes

@spare comet @pine oyster @dusty wagon strike team 9 is open

[zinc phoenix]

Yeah. Stam is also really good but controversial. Traditional pick for psyker is double toughness and an HP or double HP and a toughness. With the minors usually being health, toughness and ability regen

[errant pawn]

Did this always change your voice? I don’t think it did —but gosh dang is it annoying.

like it doesn’t make sense cause unlike the other collar there isn’t a mask

😠

There I’m done complaining now.

[shy pewter]

I almost always run 1 hp, 1 toughness, 1 stam

Stam is such good utility

Havoc is a different story tho

[zinc phoenix]

i like stam a lot too but its a controversial pick

[strong gulch]

@wispy bay gg congrats on 30

[wispy bay]

❤️

My work start in 8 hours. Otherwise I would play more with you guys.

[strong gulch]

It's cool. I am enjoying a break. Rest these brains o mine.

[wispy bay]

To be honest, I don't think the Arbitrator is any stronger than the starter classes.

[strong gulch]

I wouldn't know.

It does seem to enable people who are already good at the game a little more.

[spare comet]

how the hell did i do 120k lol @gray juniper

[wispy bay]

Anyhow, see you guys in a few days.

[spare comet]

im only level 14

[strong gulch]

trauma?

erm

VB?

[spare comet]

my staff is garbo and my sword looks like this right now

[strong gulch]

no clue

[spare comet]

maybe those greatsword heavies are just that meaty

[strong gulch]

they meaty

[hearty wolf]

I think it's a decent margin above Zealot and Vet.

With the way the tree is structured and even just the base stats, it feels like you get quite a decent choice and fairly decent patching.

Class doesn't seem to struggle too much with opportunity cost

[nocturne dust]

Arby is definitely stronger than Zealot and Vet

[hearty wolf]

^

[nocturne dust]

Arby is 'middling' but is closer to psyker and Ogryn than Zealot and Vet by... a lot.

There's a significant gap of power.

And to be fair, part of that gap is ease of use. Vet can do some crazy things, you just need 100x the effort.

[hearty wolf]

Yeah the conditions for a lot of Arby's talents basically don't exist lmao

[nocturne dust]

toughness regen all match for checks notes expending stamina

[jovial juniper]

That being said
They probably can't out finesse a zealot

[wispy bay]

It might be it. When I play Vet, I feel so much easier. Maybe because Im used toI manage a dozen different buffs at the sametime.

[nocturne dust]

One node keeping an entire class from 💀 reactions

[jovial juniper]

Casual Zealot W

[hearty wolf]

The thing is, it's not just like it cranks out toughness like psyker but it also has tons of DR on top of it. It's stupid

[nocturne dust]

Yeah, is like Oggie. I casually survive overheads

[ripe obsidian]

I think Arby is good at everything, but doesn't hit the same heights as Ogryn or Psyker for their niches. Does beat Zealot and Vet imo

[nocturne dust]

I mean, oggie is Arby but better, because oggie is good at everything

[wispy bay]

For some like Vet WS, I just play with it better I guess.

[gray juniper]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9f35463c-716d-495d-b109-4bafc6619e5c/head-popper-4

[nocturne dust]

I mean, I think the closest keystone to that on Arby is also the worst of Arby's keystones

[ripe obsidian]

I like the toughness regen of Arby. To the point that I probably overinvest in it to make up for my sloppiness in melee

I play Psyker because melee scary. Run away and burn things

[shy pewter]

Is cleave damage the dump stat on psyker's DS because the stat doesn't change its damage profile very much, or because you're not supposed to be swinging lights for cleave damage in the first place

[ripe obsidian]

Yes

[nocturne dust]

I play psyker because I hate aiming. Arby has all shotguns

[wispy bay]

That one on arby is so meh...

[strong gulch]

Me trying to melee on psyker is just dumping assails and running away.

[nocturne dust]

The first

[jovial juniper]

Nuh uh

[nocturne dust]

and also the latter, but the first

[hearty wolf]

I'm just tired of using the Zarona and find that the shotguns have pretty decent range so it works out lmao

[jovial juniper]

60 less damage against unarmored

[wispy bay]

Vet does seem to be more specialized in most builds vs Arby.

[nocturne dust]

Shotpistol & shield is just the cooler zarona

[hearty wolf]

What's the range on it like though? Swap speed?

And does it penetrate?

[wispy bay]

Couldn't one hit some of the enemies...

[nocturne dust]

Penetrates more than Zarona

[shy pewter]

shotgun range is legit. The only game i've played where they behave closer to rl ones lol. Most games have shotguns tickle after about 10ft away

[hearty wolf]

Wtf

[nocturne dust]

Swap speed is pretty instant, at least for me

[wispy bay]

Well Zarona on Vet is hard to beat.

[nocturne dust]

Range is worse than Zarona

but, like, you don't normally need the range of the Zarona

[hearty wolf]

Zarona is the entire map so yeah xd

That's usually the niche I occupy though. Special killing is my thing but maybe I'll be more invested in melee and weaving shells for more damage uptime

[shy pewter]

It has very high pen. You can shoot through hordes for special kills. I have killed 3 maulers at once with it

[wispy bay]

Eh, it does struggle to 1 hit shotgunner or gunner sometimes.

[hearty wolf]

I should hit 30 tomorrow with current gaming status and then we cook on havoc

[wispy bay]

Zarona is more solid in its stopping power.

[strong gulch]

I wish you good luck on getting curios.

[analog agate]

Shotpistol, outside of monster dmg, is worse than zarona

[hearty wolf]

Fuck em, I'd only put xp ones on anyway

[ripe obsidian]

I was playing meleeker with Void yesterday. My non-Assail SG "turn off brain press LMB" build. It's not great, but very fun

[hearty wolf]

Out of curiosity, how do the executor shotguns stack up?

[strong gulch]

That's why I had wounds until like yesterday.

[analog agate]

Mk8 is very good. Acts closer to zarona on special kills. Does respectable boss dmg too

[ripe obsidian]

VIII is the better one

[wispy bay]

Well, 1 hit most elite/special at medium range. Quite quick, but you reload so often...

[hearty wolf]

I forget whether that's the brittleness one or the electrocution one

[analog agate]

I have been gravitating towards agrip shotty on arby

[strong gulch]

Fun is the important part. When I make myself commit to melee, I path into BB. 😭

[shy pewter]

mk8 is a sniper rifle with good boss damage

[wispy bay]

Long barrel is the brittleness, short barrel is the shock.

[hearty wolf]

And long barrel is also the viii ya?

[wispy bay]

Though, after a while using the Arby shotgun, I picked up the VAG and I can do similarly. Not insta kill, but have better ammo eco to kill specialist hordes.

[wispy bay]

I can't remember.

But having 4 rounds in the magazine is kind of eh for me.

[hollow current]

cat

[strong gulch]

puff

[ripe obsidian]

Yeah, that build is BB+KF for maximum no-brain

[strong gulch]

all brain

[spare comet]

what do people run for curios

i keep seeing stuff like triple health

[strong gulch]

Curios are largely personal choice. The standard rec is 201 HP with x1 sniper resist. That let's you tank a sniper and multiple bursters.

If you do a lot of pushing and push attacks, then a +3 stam curio is nice (410 or higher otherwise it's actually a +2).

Stam regen isn't recommended because psyker has a short stam regen delay, so you can stay in positive stam.

Basically do what you like.

Common combos are

x2 tough and a +3 stam
x2 health and a +3 stam
x2 tough and a health
X2 health and a tough

[worthy wasp]

I really, really, really hope that all the smykers swap mains to Lone Wolf arbites with shock mines. So much more useful.

They cc... and actually help the team

[zinc comet]

Pocket smyker

[strong gulch]

perks for them are usually health, toughness, CDR, gunner resist

[spare comet]

i was gonna run 2 tough 1 health

[worthy wasp]

Smykers just kind of waste air and stall matches

[zinc comet]

They shouldn’t have made the penance 15 million kills or whatever the number is

[worthy wasp]

Getting 2+ tard smykers is vomit inducing.

1 is bad enough

[jovial juniper]

I don't remember mine fully
But I got 201 HP and the rest toughness

[worthy wasp]

I wish theyd remove smite from the game

[jovial juniper]

200 HP + sniper resist

Allows me to survive 2 burster/snipers

And that's all that matters

No matter how well you play, a sniper'll get ya

[nocturne dust]

unless you're immune to lag

[ripe obsidian]

Blocked in by Ogryn enemies, skipping the audio cue, 360-no-scope, whatever they must do

[nocturne dust]

and dropped inputs

and silent enemies

and teleporting enemies

[ripe obsidian]

I was suffering some insane dropped inputs yesterday in a few games. Culminated with the server crashing and everyone being booted. Twice. Once was ~2 minutes before victory

[jovial juniper]

I legit rage uninstalled because the server ate my inputs for 15+ minutes in 3 different matches

[spare comet]

wtf is a smyker

oh

[jovial juniper]

It's a

[spare comet]

smite psyker

lmao

[jovial juniper]

Smite psyker that smites a lot

[spare comet]

what's wrong with smite

you guys seem to have a hatred for it

[jovial juniper]

Nothing really

Jk

It just turns the game off

Pair it with a bad player

[remote shadow]

Infectious Headache my beloved
Best Mortis ability hands down

[nocturne dust]

They have a reputation similar to knife zealots running ahead and dying immediately

[spare comet]

oh

ok i get it now

[jovial juniper]

And you get a bad player

That turns the game off

[ripe obsidian]

Smite turns the game into fish-in-a-barrel simulator, and smykers often do not have good mechanics if they can't smite

[jovial juniper]

Pair smite with a good player

[spare comet]

So you're saying I should swap to Smite

Gotcha

[jovial juniper]

And you have a good player that turns the game off

Nuh uh

[spare comet]

Thanks for the tip

[jovial juniper]

You should double down on smite

[spare comet]

No

[jovial juniper]

Just avoid bubble smite

[spare comet]

I am sick of Havoc 40 but I want the resources 💔

If I can trivialize it I will

[jovial juniper]

Uh

[spare comet]

No but seriously

[jovial juniper]

Smite falls off on havoc

[ripe obsidian]

I need to grind H40s so I can get my rank back.

[spare comet]

Is it really that

[spare comet]

Okay

[jovial juniper]

Too much mass, too much hp

[wispy bay]

x4 smite psyker in H40 glory.

[jovial juniper]

Final toll being cc immune

[spare comet]

I figured

[jovial juniper]

Bosses not really caring about smite

[nocturne dust]

Sadly, smite does not stun 5 bosses trying to jump your bones at the same time

I would be abusing it so hard if it did

[strong gulch]

I don't hate smite all of the time. I just don't want it to stop the game and slow us down from keeping a decent pace. I don't mean speed running either.

I don't mind when a moment is overwhelming a smite give us enough to regroup and restabilize.

[jovial juniper]

You should double down on smite

[strong gulch]

But that is so rare.

[jovial juniper]

See that horror beyond comprehension, smite it

It won't do shit to it

[zinc comet]

Only use smite to save yourself

Who cares about teamwork

[jovial juniper]

But at least sends a message

[strong gulch]

Also, did they change smite's color? Non EP smite used to be blue and EP smite purple. Not even non EP blue looks purple.

[fierce crest]

theyre out here

funnily enough that only brings the total number of dredds ive seen to three

[analog agate]

Non EP smite was purple

I used it for a hot second on my EK build

[fierce crest]

smite has always been more purple than staff

[strong gulch]

I swear it used to be blue
