[tulip kettle]

weak sauce

[deft stump]

Nu, you. Puppo can't carry me now so you need to.

[fierce crest]

drop it vaguely near a BoN and it forgets how to spit

[tulip kettle]

yes, but this does actually work with walls too

bon cant spit thru wall

[deft stump]

No, those are kept separate for reasons. >_>

[rigid iris]

Is there any mod that lets us see the actual effects like this and not just the text

[tulip kettle]

what do you mean

[fierce crest]

mouse over the stat

[rigid iris]

Ingame

[fierce crest]

yes

[ripe obsidian]

Dogbleed still increases DPS on an H40 gunner from like 260 to 360. Seems a decent use of a node if you're already next to it.

[rigid iris]

Oh in talking abt nodes

Like the 30% quell speed node

[fierce crest]

ohhh

[tulip kettle]

so what is it that you what st leech

[fierce crest]

no i understand

but i dont know the answer

[tulip kettle]

im not sure what were looking for

a way to see your current total passive quell rate?

[fierce crest]

details on what talents actually do

[rigid iris]

Is there a mod that shows everything a node actually effects basically

Yeah

[tulip kettle]

oh right i see

i guess not because it would just be too cluttered

in this example

increase quelling speed by 30%

means increase quelling speed by 30%

quelling speed always refers to passive and active quelling afaik

[rigid iris]

Yes but like just active quell or does the decay count towards that

[fierce crest]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3094028505

[queen fog]

“Passive quelling is unaffected” rip

[rigid iris]

See

[tulip kettle]

what the actual

[rigid iris]

Now u know too dom

This game is full of little shit like that

I hate it

[tulip kettle]

i am aware lol

didnt know about this one specifically

[rigid iris]

Warframe but with preset mod choices

[fierce crest]

i love condition overload

i love 3 different formulas that are basically randomly chosen for each weapon

[rigid iris]

Learning that nukor grow is a fucking status effect that effects damage is rediculous

[fierce crest]

no you see this is a hitscan aoe weapon so the % is additive

[summer prairie]

there's warp_charge_dissipation_multiplier but it's not used by anything

[rigid iris]

And yet with these preset nodes

Fatshark doesn't explain shit like "faster quell doesn't mean all quell is faster"

[fierce crest]

"then what about this other hitscan aoe weapon?"

fuck you

[tulip kettle]

there really should be an in game dictionary where they define all the terms and their mechanics

like a lore compendium

[dusky bear]

for duelling sword. would i want ballance of defense/mobility to max dodges or just dump one of them?

[tulip kettle]

this is bleed

this is rending

this is stagger

etc

[tulip kettle]

usually you dump cleave

[dusky bear]

i see no cleave stat

[tulip kettle]

but you can also dump mobility. you pretty much only want to use the MK 4

its on the wrong mark

[dusky bear]

oh

[rigid iris]

Granted warframe went through all of this bs too

I think weapons should scale harder with the way they've set up difficulty though

[fierce crest]

that would be helpful

if the terms were consistent

[rigid iris]

As in the highs are fine but the lows should probably be lower

[dusky bear]

i really like dead by daylights way of doing it. perks will tell you what they do then explain the effects on the card below it

[tulip kettle]

agreed, and i think it might encourage consistency across use of terms

[fierce crest]

tru

league has crazy detailed tooltips

[tulip kettle]

if we defined "quelling" as this then we need to use uelling that way always

likewise with dota 2

[fierce crest]

game sucks and no one should play it but please more games steal that

[dusky bear]

like if a perk says "gives 20% haste and then exposes you" it will say right below that "haste increases the speed you move at. Expose causes you to go down in a single hit"

[fierce crest]

i will hold a modifier key if the tooltip is too complex and scares the normies

thats fine

[rigid iris]

Modifier key in this game would be nice

Ac6 did this bs too

Stuff u would wanna know a lot, like velocity, is nowhere to be seen unless you look in the code urself

[fierce crest]

is this still a lie?

who knows

[dusky bear]

petition to throw brunts servitor out of the airlock

[rigid iris]

Does that not work???

[fierce crest]

well you see

that depends on what you mean by "electrocuted"

[dusky bear]

i wonder that too

does it mean when they just have some sparks on them?

or only when they hit the point where they are stunned from it

[fierce crest]

idiote

you absolute foole

NO

[dusky bear]

[fierce crest]

it means being affected by smite

[dusky bear]

look am simple ogryn

[fierce crest]

is it not obvious

[dusky bear]

i see heretic, i throw rock

[fierce crest]

this man is CLEARLY not being electrocuted

[plucky flax]

Me ogre me smash

[fierce crest]

anyway it might have changed

but "electrocuted" at one point only meant from smite and its melee upgrade

electro staff

shock maul

[dusky bear]

brunts servitor has not given me a single duelling sword that has less than 80 cleave but has given me many with ~60 damage

[fierce crest]

didnt count

[ripe obsidian]

Okay, so it seems like on H40, the doggo bleed--without micromanaging jumps--adds like 50-100 DPS to single target human-sized enemies.

[fierce crest]

decent

i expect reddit to be totally ok with this

[ripe obsidian]

It was absurdly OP. Even if it was funny.

It needed a nerf very badly.

[mint matrix]

isn't kinetic flayer essentially +100 dps

[marble crater]

Now I won't be able to clear auric anymore

[summer prairie]

worth noting that you can't just look at your bleed stat to know how much it added damage over not taking it since it's also lowering your other companion damage

[ripe obsidian]

My dog did like 950k bleed damage in a 2300k damage game, or something silly like that

[summer prairie]

not an issue with dps but the aoe is more important

[ripe obsidian]

I wasn't. I was comparing DPS outputs and kill times on different enemies. D:

[plucky flax]

Bruh this man is using unupgraded purple weapon in my game.

[summer prairie]

did you accept him

[tulip kettle]

is your game havoc or no?

[plucky flax]

Yes

[tulip kettle]

omfg

just leave

[ripe obsidian]

I think the bleed is probably still worth taking, especially on high-density difficulties like Havoc.

[plucky flax]

I didnt check loadout

[tulip kettle]

actually they are playing arb u probs win anyway

[glacial vapor]

Dog will carry

[summer prairie]

he hastily made that shield only for the dog bleed abuse

[dusky bear]

is shriek flame staff good for havok?

or should i switch from shriek to shield

[fierce crest]

all 3 abilites are good

its just

at least one bubble is REALLY nice

[deft stump]

Power output dump is fine but wtf is the perks?

[fierce crest]

also if you have inferno shriek is less needed

since you already do that

[ripe obsidian]

Bubble will keep bad teammates alive longer and encourage teammates not to huddle in a corner and die. Shriek and SG are good, but less likely to help you win if your team is doofy, in my experience. But I am also not good enough to solo-carry

[fierce crest]

shriek surge my beloved

[ripe obsidian]

The weapon isn't upgraded. 37% penetration and 58% damage

[fierce crest]

shoot balls at enemy

yell when they get too close

[deft stump]

I know. But the perks... like...

[ripe obsidian]

What's wrong with Flak/Unyielding?

[pastel turtle]

It's good but your teammates will leave you in the dust if you're playing with randoms. You'll spend more time hacking at poxwalkers than using the staff

[rigid iris]

Shreik can stack even more dots right

[summer prairie]

you can keep using it in melee range

[ripe obsidian]

Inferno can LMB in melee range unless enemies are red

Then you just die.

[summer prairie]

no just rmb

[pastel turtle]

Yeah ideally you want to max soulblaze with staff then overcap with shriek

[rigid iris]

Max is like 10 right

[ripe obsidian]

I panic and go for heavier stagger if I have like 10 ragers in my face.

[pastel turtle]

I want to say 16

[ripe obsidian]

Because my team all rushed ahead to chase down a single gunner and ignored the melee elite swarm

[mint matrix]

yes

[deft stump]

I rather just kill specials and elites faster. Especially when doggo nerfed now

[mint matrix]

16 is max stacks with a crit

shriek soulblaze can go over this

[rigid iris]

Crit should be ez to stack too

Hmm

Ive been trying to do the mpathetic evasion stuff to keep myself from getting deleted by gunners

[lime jewel]

anyone know which force sword has the strongest special for single target? obscurus or deimos?

more specifically for bosses

[ripe obsidian]

Flak is elites, no?

[rigid iris]

Aren't crushers elites

[deft stump]

Most, yeah. But I mean unyielding. Doggo nerfed against bosses anyway.

[mint matrix]

you don't use obscurus or deimos special except to build peril

[ripe obsidian]

Special attacks on force swords are not actually great

[fierce crest]

deimos but obscurus isnt far behind and its got much better horde clear

funny combos tho

[ripe obsidian]

Obscurus is the highest damage. Deimos is number 2

[deft stump]

And smaul and shield does no real boss damage in the first place.

[pastel turtle]

You want the deimos push poke

[fierce crest]

wait since when

[mint matrix]

didn't obscurus get buffed so its damage is higher than deimos now

[ripe obsidian]

Since it got buffed a while ago

[fierce crest]

:O

i never used deimos anyway

i didnt know this

[ripe obsidian]

Deimos is safer because H2 has absurd stagger

[lime jewel]

ive mostly been using the force sword for repositioning in havoc.. only time i use it to attack is for boss damage xd

[fierce crest]

illisi for life

[jovial juniper]

Wanna know a secret?
For maximum dodges
You get the mk5
Dump Penetration
And apply uncanny Strike to it

[mint matrix]

mhm deimos h2 will knock a crusher on its ass

[jovial juniper]

Pretty sure obscurus is one of the best carapace killers atm

[ripe obsidian]

I use Deimos solely for the H2. Obscurus is a better weapon overall

[rigid iris]

[rigid iris]

How does it measure up to vet's mk6 powersword

Is it like pretty comparable

[pastel turtle]

Wait when did Obscurus get good

[ripe obsidian]

Fair. I have Unyielding on my maul. Haven't actually used the maul+shield

[jovial juniper]

Psword is like 2 shots

Obs is 3

But really fast 3

[jovial juniper]

A while back

[ripe obsidian]

When it got buffed a few months back

[rigid iris]

Ps can 2 shot super fast (its basically poke downswing)

[jovial juniper]

They introduced a new light attack for horde purposes

[rigid iris]

Like, can I kill that crusher "when I need it dead"

[jovial juniper]

And upped the damage on the uppercut and poke

[mint matrix]

can't scriers obscurus oneshot damnation crushers

[jovial juniper]

So does Obscurus

Don't worry

Heavy light light

Aimed at the head

[pastel turtle]

I need to try Obscurus today

[rigid iris]

Thats basically what I'm asking haha

[deft stump]

I just like it. I just know it barely does damage to bosses.

[rigid iris]

I will deffo give it another go

Was using illisi or whatever its called

But shelved it for bfgs

Because h2 is a funny poke

[wind wind]

@upper sun alright Legion lover, get your knife out its time to shank heretics

[ocean grotto]

man the voidblast staff is so hard to use

[wind wind]

I was told you just point it at your feet and start blasting. That's what ive been taught. Dont like it though

The staff i mean

Prefer purgatus or telecinetic force staff

[tulip kettle]

🗣️

IT IS CURRENTLY MELEE ONLY MAELSTROM

THIS IS A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT

[deft stump]

Time for inf ammo vet pewpew yes?

[rigid iris]

Is that good

[tulip kettle]

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION IN THIS MATTER!

[rigid iris]

Last time I just played ogryn in that and watched a zealot die to like 8 crushers

Idk I stopped paying attention to the modifier after I hit ASS 😭

[deft stump]

Some ppl like the modifier. Weeds out the gun spammers.

[wind wind]

Do it with autopistol or it doesnt count 🤪

[dusky bear]

im.... assuming free ammo on crit does nothing for staff. no reduced peral build and such?

[rigid iris]

What does this mean for "hut crusher with pickaxe" gameplay

[deft stump]

Though some can't read and then spam "I need ammo.".

[deft stump]

Perfect for you then.

[rigid iris]

Oog me charge heavy

[upper sun]

ready

[rigid iris]

Or I just play a psyker hmm

[jovial juniper]

Basically 80% of the mortis Trial indulgences don't work on Staff

[upper sun]

im launching the game rn

[wind wind]

Ive had a zealot once. Was rocking chastise, martyrdom and duelingsword with a braced Auto

[deft stump]

Rejected. Bistol or GTFO.

[late yew]

reeeee i cannot find which mod causes crashing after last patch

[wind wind]

Weak

[deft stump]

Pointless basically.

[late yew]

ACTUALLY

nvm, it crashes without mods

[dusky bear]

ah beans. i miss clicked in mortis

[deft stump]

The only node you want is the free damage one on that.

Unless gunker.

[wind wind]

Zealot shot his braced empty and then was like: with what do i kill the enemies with now ammo and i laughed at him like: bruh, you are zealot with a DS, youll be fine.

And He was

[deft stump]

Most of the minor indulgences don't work on staves.

[wind wind]

Same

[rigid iris]

Just play gg ost through the mic for him he'll be okay

[wind wind]

Will send you invite asap

[dusky bear]

unfortunately am fireker

[deft stump]

Just poke with dueling. If you don't understand as Zeal... IDK man, maybe go play Oggy.

[rigid iris]

Charche

[tulip kettle]

dont forget to patch for mods fellas

[rigid iris]

Hebby

[ripe obsidian]

Staff psyker kinda sucks in Mortis

[tulip kettle]

ohohohohoho

blazing trauma begs to differ

[jovial juniper]

It shouldn't
It Shouldn't

Raaaaah

[deft stump]

Is why most just take colossus if avaliable.

[ripe obsidian]

Compared with Unlimited Grenade Ogryn or Endless Ammo Veteran?

[tulip kettle]

oh nah man

its not like

[ripe obsidian]

Blazing Trauma just has a high baseline

[dusky bear]

i get close to 1k kills with fire staff in mortis

[tulip kettle]

actually good compared to broken mortis stuff

100% damage resist in castigators?

[ripe obsidian]

I'm saying it sucks compared with the broken Mortis combos

[tulip kettle]

3% ability charges?

[deft stump]

Unlimited 'nade works vet.

[summer prairie]

purg is broken in mortis, just need burn on ranged hit

[ripe obsidian]

True, but Ogryn has a nuke

[summer prairie]

BB too with all the buffs

[rigid iris]

So does that stack soulblaze and burn or

[summer prairie]

regular burn

[rigid iris]

Is soulblaze seperate from burn

[deft stump]

3 'nades a min/guaranteed twinned, 'nades 50% reboom, healing nades/more bleed damage.

Funni.

Triple shout also good if it comes to that.

[ripe obsidian]

I haven't tried purgatus psyker in Mortis since they made it harder twice

Last time I tried, there was no enemy density

Just felt bad

[deft stump]

4 was cos if you vet, you always have 'nade regen.

[deft stump]

You go boxes then. Pray for BIGGEST box.

And 50% reboom.

[rigid iris]

Whats reboom

[deft stump]

Hilarity as you 14 nukes in a row.

[mint matrix]

50% chance to replicate the grenade

[vast yew]

I haven't even touched Mortis Trials or Havoc and honestly I don't even know where to start.
I tried using party finder for Havoc and after like 10 minutes of nothing working I said screw it and went back to Aurics

[deft stump]

Chance to drop another equiv 'nade where the explosion was.

It's hilarious with BIGGEST box.

[ripe obsidian]

Unrelated: the vet put one of my cats on an anti-anxiety medication. He went from meowing probably 8 hours a day to being totally silent besides purring. He has meowed 8 hours a day for the entire decade I have had him. This is weird.

[upper sun]

@wind wind i have zero faith in the random

dclaw into scab melee

hes dying

[marble crater]

Protect him

[deft stump]

Well, anxiety. Something probably has been triggering him.

[marble crater]

Hopefully you will get used to the silence quickly

[ripe obsidian]

I just thought he was a super vocal cat

It's such a sudden and stark change

Now I feel a little bad thinking he's been dealing with anxiety for 10+ years

[marble crater]

Give him extra treats and pets

[ocean grotto]

what is the secret sauce to the trauma staff

[marble crater]

Secret sauce in what way?

[ocean grotto]

make it as broken people say it is

[deft stump]

And cuddles if he likes them.

[vast yew]

Nexus + Blazing or Rending + Flurry

[marble crater]

Check pins for the build after that it's down to practice

[dusky bear]

[vast yew]

Y'know I've wondered if some sort of supportive talent would be a good choice to replace Warp Rupture

because that has to be the least chosen upgrade of any ability in the game

[dusky bear]

that tallent has to mean 50% right?

not actually half a point

[ocean grotto]

are you telling me ive been running a support build this whole time

[dusky bear]

yeah flame staff is nice in mortis

[ocean grotto]

holy peak now we're talking

brittleness more like lame

[fierce crest]

inferno brittle is unique and stacks with the normal cap of 40%

[ocean grotto]

https://darktide.gameslantern.com/builds/9df8cf62-74bb-407a-b6ab-b942ad63597d/the-best-psyker-build-rats-trauma-psyker

ive been trying to use this

it seems to be good if u have a team or if u have no life

[deft stump]

Oh, Rat's got a very specific playstyle btw.

[marble crater]

The way Rat uses the staff is pretty different to how most people use it, so I am not sure if that is the best idea to start out with Voidblast

[ocean grotto]

fuk u rat

die

[mint matrix]

crystalline will is certainly... an interesting talent choice

[ocean grotto]

atleast the tech is cool

[deft stump]

Unless you are god at aiming the thing, it won't work.

Since he does pinpoint quick blasts.

[ocean grotto]

im still gonna practice his rat tech cuz its actually fun

[deft stump]

He uhhh... accidentally blows himself up at times.

Or so he says.

[marble crater]

Happens to the best psykers, not me though, because I am not among them

Blowing up is very cringe

[ripe obsidian]

As Karien said, Rat's build is absolutely not for everyone. He's good at it, but it's not really meta.

[ocean grotto]

i blew up and got an achievement for it therefore its based

[vestal trench]

jesus christ this is the first time i've actually looked at rat's build and that's a lot of tech

[ocean grotto]

it feeds my dopamine receptors

[vestal trench]

is this more or less apm than bubble knight lol

[marble crater]

[ripe obsidian]

Dodge-slide while charging RMB is pretty common on all staves.

[vestal trench]

me only using it some of the time

[ocean grotto]

from now on im just gonna ask the channels for builds lol

[ripe obsidian]

The fun part is sliding around a corner into eighty maulers and dying instantly

[deft stump]

Just harder to do on controller.

[rigid iris]

I feel like perfect timing > warp rider

[vestal trench]

i guess thats fine though

[rigid iris]

If you dont have space 4 both

Thoughts

[ripe obsidian]

Warp rider is one of the best talents in the whole tree

[vast yew]

20% > 15%

[vestal trench]

like, i'd assume it's the same line of thinking as in movement shooters: know the movement tech but spamming it every single time isn't the best idea if it's not necessary for the situation

[rigid iris]

Yeah but 15 all the time or 20 sometimes

[vast yew]

If you aren't at high peril you are doing it wrong

Generally

[vestal trench]

i think i'll stick to dodge slide though, sprint slide with weapon swapping while casting sounds like a lot

[ripe obsidian]

15% warp damage versus 20% all damage

[rigid iris]

True but sometimes I'm getting futtbucked in a corner by poxers because the 3 arbies have decided to rotate to 8 seperate spots

[vast yew]

Also Warp Rider applies to your melee

[rigid iris]

Independently of one another for fuck all reason

[ripe obsidian]

And ideally you should be at like 70%+ peril always

For multiple talents and blessings

[vestal trench]

oh huh, im watching the vid and i notice rat doesn't full charge the trauma - is full charging trauma only the play for fire trauma or something?

i remember reading on here that the only staff to not full charge was like, purg

[ripe obsidian]

It's Rat's playstyle

[vestal trench]

got it

[mint matrix]

i mean they weapon swap for the better mobility so they can slide a longer distance

[marble crater]

You are at 70% peril for the buffs
I am at 70% peril for the sfx sound, we are not the same

[deft stump]

Like I said, he does pinpoint quick blasts.

[vestal trench]

i should probably learn that but i aint built like that LOL

i also dont run DS, not sure how much more slide deimos gives compared to a staff

[ripe obsidian]

Charging a staff to full is a luxury and it depends on the situation.

[deft stump]

You need to git gud at aiming the thing.

[ocean grotto]

is sliding speed affected by your weapon mobility?

[ripe obsidian]

Do you have time to fully charge, and will the extra charge benefit you? Then do it. If not, let it fly

[ripe obsidian]

Yes

[ocean grotto]

is tac axe good for it or nah

[ripe obsidian]

Yes

[mint matrix]

tac axe functions yeah

[ocean grotto]

cool

[round summit]

what staff do i want with smite build?

[mint matrix]

knife and ds have easy movetech to learn tbh

[ripe obsidian]

Purgatus doesn't charge to full if you have Blaze Away because a full charge drops the stacks

[dusky bear]

i forgot to save the clip, but that doesnt beat my game eaerlier today. earlier today i loaded in just in time to get hit by a mutie, who ran me into a wall and then tossed me over a guard rail directly onto a daemon host who made me its bitch

[ocean grotto]

im feeling like this rn

[ripe obsidian]

Something like 45% or lower charge to keep Blaze Away up on Purgatus

[ripe obsidian]

I loaded into a Mortis yesterday to chase penances. Spawned into a cluster of literally six Pogryns and died before I could react

[deft stump]

So good though when you have to do Knoife zealot things as a vet.

[wind wind]

He did ok. But dclaw for a civi was risky

[upper sun]

ye

[ripe obsidian]

I feel like a weirdo here in that I do not like the knife

It is probably my least enjoyed weapon

[upper sun]

we playing another or?

[ocean grotto]

yeah you are a weirdo

heretic

[fierce crest]

its 20 at all times

[outer condor]

When the incomprehensible horrors from another dimension kicks in

[vast yew]

I don't like the knife's moveset, but if I actually have to swing it more than a few times in a mission then I'm doing something wrong

[wind wind]

I can play all evening

Aint got nothing todo

[upper sun]

ill just do this one then go eat

[ripe obsidian]

Melee for me is panic time if I'm not using FGS meleeker

[wind wind]

Np

[tulip kettle]

idk melee with DS on psyker feels pretty chill too

[ripe obsidian]

It is spam push and push attack and dodge like crazy :D

[tulip kettle]

i tell you what is not cool or safe

[vast yew]

Well yeah it's DS lol

[ripe obsidian]

I'm bored of DS

[dull scroll]

doggo got nerfed, this class is back on top again, world is healing 😌

[tulip kettle]

when you go to melee a cursher blob because they are all jiggling from smite

then the smite stops 💀

[fierce crest]

[ocean grotto]

you mean fixed

[ripe obsidian]

Fair.

[vast yew]

Rashad my beloved

[mint matrix]

when 99% of movetech is find an animation that increases your speed and use a slide to maintain that speed for longer

[fierce crest]

im so sad antax isnt the good one (or that its not the base for the forge-livery skin)

it looks so cool

BIG fuCKING chOPPER

[tulip kettle]

have you tried simply not being poor and buying every skin?

[fierce crest]

there is one (1) antax base skin

[deft stump]

On vet, that stam is even more limited when you are trying to clutch.

[tulip kettle]

theres no cosmetics for it at all?

[fierce crest]

no theres a bunch

[mint matrix]

thankfully slides don't consume stamina :>

[fierce crest]

but only one uses the antax model

[tulip kettle]

oh thats what i meant lol

oof sucks to be an antax lover

[deft stump]

WDYM? Have you never vet?

[tulip kettle]

team rashad on top

[mint matrix]

I play vet

[dusky bear]

oh that was the wrong video

[mint matrix]

vet has awful stam delay

but slides help extending your limited stam

[dusky bear]

here have an old video from old darktide

[fierce crest]

its

fine

i like the base antax better lul

[tulip kettle]

tbh weapon skins in this game as a whole are kinda doodoo

[deft stump]

It'll go poof too quickly and then you pray on shout or a 'nade to buy time.

[tulip kettle]

slab shield with grille bars is kinda ok

[ocean grotto]

some are real nice

[tulip kettle]

i saw chaos using an FGS with a cool skull hilt but i think its from some extension of an extension of an extension for weapon customiser mod

[ocean grotto]

but generally they tend to be ass yeah

[vast yew]

Chaos uses cheat skins

They make him deal more damage

[tulip kettle]

okay the right one pretty

[fierce crest]

this one is sweet

[tulip kettle]

meh

[fierce crest]

this one too

[tulip kettle]

problem with those is

you dont notice it so much when holding it

the bars one you at least get bars

[fierce crest]

thats what the interior purity seal is for

[tulip kettle]

though i guess we all know skins are for the other players to admire your drip and aura farm

ah of course!

[mint matrix]

this is why u take sprint efficiency to extend what limited stamina you have even further

[fierce crest]

i like the shields with bars but my shieldgryn is styled as a well equipped bullgryn and the broken shield doesnt fit

[deft stump]

No, I shout into 'nade and let it regen.

[mint matrix]

that works too

[dusky bear]

hehe heritics burn

its still going

[pliant badge]

Hello #psyker-class i just felt like asking
which blessings are good for the mk. V blaze force sword?

[summer prairie]

no dog bleed 400k companion damage

[marble crater]

Slaughterer and uncanny or deflector

[deft stump]

Deflector (All if preferred), uncanny (Obsc/Deimos mostly.), slaughterer (Illisi must), shred (I know some run this).

[plucky flax]

Dog bleed is very low now.

I did only 200k bleed in 29 mins game.

[pliant badge]

thank you #psyker-class

[fierce crest]

who ping

[plucky flax]

I guess still okay for 1 point investment.

[oak echo]

If I understand this right- So long as you don't hit 100 peril, you will stay in scrier's gaze, right?

[summer prairie]

how much of that was boss damage with puncture

[plucky flax]

Maybe 50k.

[marble crater]

Pretty much

[plucky flax]

I think it's still worth 1 point investment. But you'll have to actually melee stuff now which is good.

And horde don't instantly get deleted.

[summer prairie]

if it's only 1 point, I don't like going left side

[plucky flax]

Psyker back to supremacy.

[deft stump]

I mean, doggo will still outdamage 300 ping me anyway.

[last shore]

Havoc arby skin when

[plucky flax]

300 ping you or skill issue you?

[last shore]

https://tenor.com/view/where-you-at-gif-21177622

[marble crater]

The answer might surprise you

[plucky flax]

I'm choosing violence today.

it might not bode well for me.

But she flames me too much so it's time I strike back.

[deft stump]

300 ping. I do around a third of my usual damage on higher ping in aurics. Cos things are already dead to the server but not on my end and such. Unless forced to somehow clutch solo... then well... dook.

[marble crater]

I think you will be fine, she has 300 ping, her flames are easily evaded

[plucky flax]

True I will run away.

She said she's forced to clutch solo because I'm bad.

[marble crater]

[plucky flax]

[deft stump]

Aurics. With others.

[rotund dagger]

ran into a smyker

day ruined

[marble crater]

Sorry

[deft stump]

Why are you picking and choosing my words reeeeeeeeeeee

[rotund dagger]

need to play surge staff, have fun with lightning attacks that actually contribute

[merry meteor]

Can somebody point me to a proper detailed description of how Force Greatsword works? I mean, I know the basics, but I feel there may be more to it than what you can find out by experimenting in game. Can't find much though

[marble crater]

Well someone has to pick them carefully, since you aren't and just flaming poor AgentChaos

[plucky flax]

You're the one always do that.

[fierce crest]

become zap

[deft stump]

I was just talking in general. My damage crashes and burns on higher ping.

[marble crater]

I think there are pictures with all the attack patterns, somewhere

[fierce crest]

hey, you know things
is Enfeeble still lying?

[marble crater]

[long wharf]

there is nothing hidden about the FGS

[rotund dagger]

Get it out of my face

[deft stump]

Garh. I'm going back to writing yuri smut.

[long wharf]

kill stuff to fill up the meter, use the special attack when meter is full

rinse and repeat

[summer prairie]

Enfeeble only procs if you use smite or charged strike

[marble crater]

Have fun

[fierce crest]

FS please stop lying to me :(

[merry meteor]

no, not that. more like, it's charged while you hit or kill stuff - but for how much exactly, what affects the speed of its charging? Also, does it do more damage when charged, or have better rending? So far I only noticed that discharge (ranged) attack deals more damage if it's charged to at least one full scale

[rotund dagger]

Give me kinetic flayer or give me death

[merry meteor]

nothing of what I asked above is explanined in the game itself

[marble crater]

I don't know the exact numbers, but I know that specials give more charge than trash and elites give more than both, bosses give a full charge, I think. You get charge from kills, and from hitting enemies which get killed by your team shortly after. Then it slowly loses charges over time, but pretty slowly to be honest

[marble crater]

Melee attacks are not different depending on the charge, only the empowered attack when you use the special

[marble crater]

Happens when you get older, go see a doctor

[marble crater]

I don't know

[elfin merlin]

my doctor (actually my mind) advised me to use FGS for cc instead

[long wharf]

there are pills for that

[elfin merlin]

tell me

[long wharf]

Viagra

[elfin merlin]

dude psyker's staff

[merry meteor]

What is the downside of releasing the charge? Normally a charged force weapon gets much more powerful. I'm surprised actually nobody have looked into it and haven't yet written a proper guide on that topic. Is it so unpopular weapon?

[elfin merlin]

how will viagra help with an inanimated object

[long wharf]

you get no damage bonus from the charge meter with the FGS

that's not what it does

[fierce crest]

it means you dont have charge anymore

[plucky flax]

Maybe I try stance now and lock in.

[mint matrix]

charge meter exists only to determine the strength of the special attack

[fierce crest]

its like asking whats the downside of spending super meter in a fighting game

[marble crater]

Ah, use voidblast or Elektro for CC

[merry meteor]

and how do we know it?

[elfin merlin]

can you do a 0 charge attack to get a hound off a teammate

[long wharf]

testing

[mint matrix]

yes

[long wharf]

in the psykward

[elfin merlin]

this will come in handy if they're left behind

[mint matrix]

don't think it travels through walls tho unlike shriek

[deft stump]

Even through walls... >_> unless not anymore.

[fierce crest]

does the wave's stagger go down with distance like the damage?

the wave goes through walls???

[mint matrix]

oh it travels through walls??

[fierce crest]

ive been using way too much brain power with the FGS

[elfin merlin]

scier's gaze + fgs

[mint matrix]

im ngl I haven't done any testing on traveling through walls

[elfin merlin]

yeah it does

[fierce crest]

i know that if the center point doesnt hit a wall the edges will go through

[deft stump]

I dunno, but I know some ppl managed to wake DHs in other rooms by accident using it.

[mint matrix]

probably? pretty much everything will stagger a dog though

[fierce crest]

but ive never tried to just shoot the whole thing at a wall

[elfin merlin]

without context, this sounds like animal abuse

[deft stump]

So I assume it does fly through.

[fierce crest]

yep

it does

[elfin merlin]

what thing are unblockable ?

[hearty wolf]

@strong gulch

they

KILLED

my boi

the dog

No longer is a 5th party member

[mint matrix]

[fierce crest]

overheads

[tulip kettle]

it does go through walls 100%

[ripe obsidian]

How ded is ded?

[tulip kettle]

the amount of charge you gain is based on hit mass

[mint matrix]

with some exceptions

[hearty wolf]

It remains to be seen but I don't think I'm doing the damage of two people combined anymore

also

are you around for once

or is timezone meme

[ripe obsidian]

It's 1pm and I am in the office

[fierce crest]

its been tested, it only applies the 8 stacks once, as it lands, the damage isnt buffed by +damage

its like 100 extra dps on single targets

[ripe obsidian]

Complaining about the US government selling off WiFi spectrum because they're dumb

[plucky flax]

In a 29:25mins game I did 205k bleed damage.

[ripe obsidian]

50 to 100, yes.

[plucky flax]

It's so-so.

[hearty wolf]

but do I take the node

[marble crater]

Arbites when they actually have to play the class now instead of afking

[ripe obsidian]

So like... 15% total damage increase?

[hearty wolf]

or do I not take the node

[long wharf]

FartShack nerfed the dog bleed to hell

[plucky flax]

The dawg still did like 1/3 of my damage I guess.

It used to do more than double. Xd

[tulip kettle]

overheads can be blocked

[ripe obsidian]

200k on top of 1m is a 20% increase. That's not bad.

[long wharf]

now not only does the bleed not take any damage or buff into account at all, it also doesn't apply to things hit by the dog's lunge

[fierce crest]

chadgryn gang

[tulip kettle]

not just like normally

[long wharf]

only the little aoe on pounce

[tulip kettle]

arb can also do it

[fierce crest]

cringe

kill that class

[deft stump]

I dunno. Push bonk bonk push bonk bonk again.

[plucky flax]

Dog can do more damage now because bleed not insta killing everything.

[tulip kettle]

now hold on a sec

if its just elites i might not even need to push 🙂

[tidal siren]

Is it correct that fire staff uses perks that are equiped on your melee weapon, red it in atheneum

[deft stump]

I do it for cleave. WDYM?

[tulip kettle]

sort of?

[mint matrix]

cant psyker also block overheads with kinetic deflection?

[tulip kettle]

ah fair enough

[ripe obsidian]

Bleed doesn't seem like a bad node now. Seems fairly in line with other Arby damage nodes. What would you get instead of it?

[hearty wolf]

Bonk on stagger = tuffness

[summer prairie]

it's worse than voltaic mandibles at least

[long wharf]

the bleed isn't worth the node any more

[tulip kettle]

the soulblaze stacks that you apply to enemies can benefit from some melee weapon blessings if you have the weapon equipped

[summer prairie]

but voltaic needs to be nerfed too

[deft stump]

I also use the horde mark of the shield, the one with 2 horizontal swings on l1 and l2.

[ripe obsidian]

Has anyone else been having issues with blocking on H40 missions? Particularly bosses. My blocks would stop a Pogryn attack last week, but now it cracks through block, full toughness, and hits my health

[summer prairie]

maybe you were just perfect blocking with forceful

[tidal siren]

Oh I missred it, soulblaze stacks already active use melee weapons perks if you switch

[deft stump]

Or just shield.

[tidal siren]

Makes sense

[fierce crest]

perfect blocks also dont work

[tulip kettle]

so generally you will use inferno to get the enemies to a good number of soulblaze stacks

[ripe obsidian]

I disagree. It's like a 15% to 20% damage increase overall. It's not mandatory, but it's viable. Helps dog chew through elites that much faster, and if you manage the dog well, it can spread bleed quickly.

[fierce crest]

source:

[tulip kettle]

then hit enemies in the head with uncanny strike melee weapon to give the soulblaze rending

[long wharf]

no, it was

there were multiple bugs going on

enemies pounced by dogs were getting hit with that bleed proc twice

[ripe obsidian]

It was not a 15-20% increase.

[mint matrix]

[ripe obsidian]

It was a 120% increase

Dog did more damage than players.

[deft stump]

I think it was 3 times, and impact target one more.

[hearty wolf]

It's a dog

how are you supposed to compete

[long wharf]

I read twice, but I'd believe more

[hearty wolf]

it has 4 legs

we only have two

it should deal 2x damage

[fierce crest]

1. on jump
2. while in the air
3. on landing
4. on pounced target

[ripe obsidian]

My dog did like 1300k total damage in a 2300k damage game. The player with the second most damage was like 1400k total

[deft stump]

Thus, 4.

[long wharf]

one for each leg

[hearty wolf]

So if it lands on a pounced target, does 3 get skipped or?

[long wharf]

I don't see the issue

[deft stump]

Or 3 AoE, 1 target.

[fierce crest]

nope, which is why the pounced target used to always get 16 stacks

[deft stump]

Either way, instant max bleed.

[fierce crest]

but only for human sized targets

[ripe obsidian]

It was super broken. Now it's functioning appropriately. It's not OP, and I think that's skewing people's view. It's a fine node if you're already on the left side of the tree. Worth one point, probably not two if you aren't next to it.

[fierce crest]

it doesnt land if it pounced a big boy

[long wharf]

one change they made I really don't like

a dog that can cause bleeding by knocking things over should do it to all things knocked over

[fierce crest]

also apparently every bite while pounced also applied the bleed

[long wharf]

not just the one pounced and a small area around it

[fierce crest]

but since it was already at the 16 stack cap it just refreshed it

[hearty wolf]

https://discord.com/channels/727074276724965407/1042856649376935986

let's try some havoc and lose now longer that we no longer have dog :(

I couldn't even win with Blood for the Blood Dog.

[hearty wolf]

comecome

[ripe obsidian]

I am literally at work

[hearty wolf]

ur sick

I just finished

[ripe obsidian]

I think my company would dislike me installing Steam on my work laptop

[hearty wolf]

Use epic

[vast yew]

It's for Wallpaper Engine I swear

[marble crater]

Steal the laptop, then it's not a work laptop anymore

[vast yew]

Also Nvidia shadowplay if you don't mind lag

[ripe obsidian]

I am pretty sure they would find me.

[vast yew]

I am pretty sure too but it'd be funny to watch

Then again we had a guy straight up playing World of Tanks on his laptop at work and he didn't get fired, even after they caught him multiple times

they just disabled his internet port

[deft stump]

But internet dongle/wifi.

[vast yew]

It was on a military base

no Wifi around

And if he tried to bypass that then he'd be in actual serious trouble

[deft stump]

Oh, lul.

[ripe obsidian]

Harder to get fired from the military or a military contractor than from big tech

I did military contracting two jobs ago. It sucked. Now I do big tech things. It sucks less.

[young cliff]

aside from the Vraks, what other guns are good for gunker critter? (also, there is a real reason for using the shredder outside its stagger?)

[deft stump]

I was thinking office job or something.

[vast yew]

Recon Lasgun

[mint matrix]

it also applies aoe bleed

[jovial juniper]

It's Recon or Shredder

Shredder is a finesse weapon

[mint matrix]

laspistol

[ripe obsidian]

Shredder grenade applies aoe bleed. Does the pistol do that?

I don't know, have never used it

[mint matrix]

oh i was talking about the grenade

oh

LOL

i forget the shredder autopistol exists sometimes

[deft stump]

Just use frags. Nobody talks about the starter frags anyway.

[young cliff]

its just that Vraks feels like shredder+, i cant see a reason to use that over the Inf Autogun

is not even faster in dodges or sprint

[young cliff]

i cant blame you, it doesnt feel that it has a niche

[jovial juniper]

While that's true
You can fire while sprinting with the SAP

So you're basically always ready

[young cliff]

issue i have with this is that WHY obesefish thinks that's good when we have been dodge slide firing for a while already?
i get the idea of sprinting into fights while gunning, its quite zealoty, but i feel i would sprint slide with them too

[ripe obsidian]

Apropos of nothing, have a music:

https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=8mTdsSu3_Is&si=fzdv1oFttKDNgkh4

[young cliff]

first i heard: 2 adds

[ripe obsidian]

I'm sorry. :<

I think this'll probably be my Arbiter build again. I like Forceful more than EO

[plucky flax]

Free wall hax tho

Gawd damn I'm eating good with these grills in my party.

[ripe obsidian]

There is a 1% chance they are actually girls.

[plucky flax]

They could be gremlin like karien

[ripe obsidian]

I'd mark the chance as higher if they hadn't named themselves thusly

[ripe obsidian]

Wall hacks are OP, it is true. Seeing every enemy on the other side of the room is really useful

[deft stump]

WDYM, ladies can be gremlins as well.

[young cliff]

that just makes it a 0.004% ultrarare ones

[deft stump]

[shut kite]

Whitch mark for heavy las pistol for best boss damage, also is deperado better than infernus for bosses?

[analog agate]

2

Infernus/dumbdum best

[young cliff]

desperado is better for the in between fights to make your crit chance high to tap enemies with beefy crits
but infernus will provide better boss damage

[hearty wolf]

It's so cool

I was in a 1vx

Every enemy on the planet is marked

aside from the trapper

Even after it traps me and runs away

[barren cloud]

heya folks

[hearty wolf]

hio

[barren cloud]

anyone got an inferno staff build they could share with me ?

for high havocs

[timber parcel]

I have one for malice

[barren cloud]

i went through the atheneum, but couldnt find any

[timber parcel]

(What you are looking for is in pinned msges)

[analog agate]

See pins. It is the left tree build. If you want bubble do that instead of shriek

[barren cloud]

and melee weapon suggestion ?

[marble crater]

Deimos or Dueling Sword Mk4

[ripe obsidian]

It is. But I often opt for defensive options to make up for my poor awareness

And Forceful keeps me alive

Can the dog have a gun mounted on it's back?

[sturdy reef]

@hearty wolf I got another purple/red havoc lol

[marble crater]

We already have zealots

[ripe obsidian]

Using dogbleed and bistol or?

[hollow magnet]

does Reality Anchor also affect the peril generated by scriers gaze itself

[ripe obsidian]

"Only while overcharging, reduces the amount of peril generated by 20%. Does not linger after the overcharging phase. Stacks multiplicatively with peril cost reduction buffs from By Crack of Bone, Empyric Resolve, Kinetic Resonance, small Peril Resistance nodes, and Combat Stimm; can stack with Inner Tranquility only if Psyker regains warp charges while overcharging."

Seems like yes.

[marble crater]

Reality Anchor is meh, there are better talents to reduce peril which you probably already take if you play Gaze

By Crack of Bone and Tranquility Through Slaughter

[hearty wolf]

36

[hearty wolf]

yes

[hearty wolf]

Been doing one all day

I threw this run tho

[strong gulch]

I would only take reality anchor if you're doing something like inferno or VB with SG.

[hearty wolf]

I went to pick up psyker cos all the gunners stopped shooting

I thought they were friendly

[marble crater]

You can make it to 1, I believe in you

[hearty wolf]

Turns out they were just reloading

[ripe obsidian]

It becomes difficult to judge how useful dogbleed is, then. But EO increases companion damage a lot.

[hearty wolf]

Bolt pistol is better than the executioner shotgun anyway

so idx

Shotgun is dogshit

fake news it's good

[ripe obsidian]

I disagree

[hearty wolf]

brittle shell cool tho

[ripe obsidian]

It gives me dopamine

Big gun go bang, heretic explodes

10/10

[ripe obsidian]

Maybe you're using it wrong. >:(

[hearty wolf]

Do you aim for the head

[ripe obsidian]

Aim?

[hearty wolf]

because I swear to god it does -50% damage

yes

[ripe obsidian]

I play Psyker. I don't know how to aim

[hearty wolf]

🤔

Anyway 1 more game to 35

Speed running

[ripe obsidian]

My hands are too shaky to aim well.

So in any shooting game, I aim center mass or use something that doesn't require aiming. Any headshots are happy accidents.

It's part of why I'm bad at Zealot; I can't hit throwing knives to save my life. Literally.

I miss and die.

[marble crater]

[ripe obsidian]

It's also why I use the Kickback instead of a heavy stubber on Ogryn.

[plucky flax]

Feelsbad

Old man aim

[ripe obsidian]

Except I sucked at aiming even when I was younger. :D

So now I use purgatus and shotguns.

[rigid iris]

I'll finish this on psyker

we gave this psyker a helbore and they turned the gun on themself and missed

greatsword has infinit cleave on special hit right

like the hit itself

[deft stump]

The warpslash, yes.

nerf psyker?

Helbore? Is this some barbaric language I'm too much of a space wizard to understand?

[late rune]

Was trying out a force greatsword melee build for funzies and noticed the special slash thing applies bleed if you switch to your bolt pistol (with puncture) right after it fires. Not the biggest deal but interesting, are there any other gun blessings that affect it?

[ripe obsidian]

Puncture is just super borked

I think Uncanny on melee works with Assail?

Not positive

[ripe obsidian]

Depending on how late you're up, I will probably be home in an hour or so. Waiting for the rain to stop

[late rune]

Since the slash triggers puncture i take it counts as ranged damage? Does that mean it doesnt get affected by any perks or blessings on the sword itself aside from the one that makes the slash auto crit?

[strong gulch]

it works the same on assail

[gleaming dust]

Anyone know some good psyker outfits? or one that would fit my boy here

[rotund dagger]

Least whimsical psyker

[hollow magnet]

how do the staff perks work with the flamethrower staff

[rigid iris]

bro looks like his name is baron von bonbon

[hollow magnet]

any good psyker builds?

i feel like i cant get good horde clear and good elite clear

[analog agate]

Builds are in pins including inferno. Perks are flak/unyielding

[ripe obsidian]

There are many good psyker builds.

[jovial juniper]

Inferno staff hits bodies and the soulblaze affects the core, which is usually the same as the body

Most enemies have flak body

So flak is number 1 pick

[hollow magnet]

does strength affect the inferno staff damage?

I assumed strength would be physical dmg

[gleaming dust]

Is it worth 50k to change it to this lmao

[jovial juniper]

Yes

Strength is Damage, Cleave and Stagger

In Infernos case you kinda don't care about the cleave part

Since infinite cleave lol

is it infinite or just not applicable

Infinite

O sos

I forgot to reply

We went on a massive tangent about Texas

[ripe obsidian]

Texas is bad and it should feel bad.

[analog agate]

⬆️

At least Austin isn’t as bad

[ripe obsidian]

It's not fun for everyone else in the game. It's a "turn off the gameplay and hit unmoving targets" button, as well as invalidating dodge talents.

Also, Smykers generally have a reputation of being unable to play the game without smite, so people will often avoid playing with them.

[full oyster]

I mean i guess. But i have never had anyone not like it i have played with. It makes it a little easier to not get swamped.

[analog agate]

Good players don’t like it

[ripe obsidian]

Example: I had a Smyker in an H40 red aura (CC doesn't work), and they just died repeatedly and did something like 1/3 the damage of anyone else.

[full oyster]

I mean the dmg is still good with shock staff and blaze force sword though right ?

[flint blade]

Fucking nerd

[full oyster]

I mean im fairly new to this game. It just feels good to use and it feels helpful

[flint blade]

You smell bad

[full oyster]

If only you could smell me rn😮‍💨

[flint blade]

Way too zesty

[ripe obsidian]

Smite does not do great damage. Electrokinetic staff does.

[marble crater]

@flint blade smite is strong and smite builds are strong as well. If used correctly smite is a very powerful tool that is a lot of help. The problem is that some psykers use smite way too much, even in situations where it's either not necessary or actually detrimental to them or the team.

And some people don't like it because it makes part of their own loadout not work correctly, as the enemies are stunned

[ripe obsidian]

Play what's fun for you. This isn't to tell you not to play it, just to explain the opinion of the discord.

[flint blade]

I know this guy, I'm just screwing with him

[oak echo]

Will Scrier's Gaze remain active if you quell?

[full oyster]

Yea we are playin rn lol

[marble crater]

I figured you two know each other, also figured now that I meant to tag @full oyster instead

So you read it I guess

[ripe obsidian]

Yes.

squeak (rat has some time now if you have any questions about rat's playstyle)

squeak (but like everyone said, it is quite unique and not for everyone)

[ripe obsidian]

Rat's playstyle is carpal tunnel syndrome.

But they get results, so

[wet charm]

squeak (tru) ._.

Mechanics abuse and its effects on the hands

[jovial juniper]

Real

[jovial juniper]

Which one?

[full oyster]

Its just one i made. With very little knowledge of the game lol. Seems fun

[ripe obsidian]

Fun is most important

[gleaming dust]

any gaze builds? cant see any in pins

thinking some sorta assail, fgs VIII

[deft stump]

Patpats.

[marble crater]

#psyker-class message

[gleaming dust]

you think theres an optimal toget full assail and warp siphon

Not amazing but something like that?

[marble crater]

no

Dont need siphon with gaze

[mint matrix]

u always want to get disrupt destiny

with gaze

[gleaming dust]

not to stack damge and toughness or do i have it all wrong?

[marble crater]

With your build you will have less of both

Disrupt Destiny has great synergy with Gaze, Siphon does not

Pathing to Siphon is also too expensive, as you can see

[gleaming dust]

ah got it

anything else youd change?

i wanna use the fgs 8 just to clean hordes

idk about tank damage

[marble crater]

Well I would change it to the build I sent you that works perfectly for what you want to do

[gleaming dust]

yeah haha, i just wanted to run full assail

is it even better than base assail

[marble crater]

You can change the last Disrupt Destiny node for assail recharge

[gleaming dust]

is the extra pen not good?
