#

I'm good with that then, seems easier

modest perch
#

btw if you go that route go into your mod options and disable all the displays for the base scoreboard

rare arrow
#

I went Power di

modest perch
#

same

#

couldnt get the ovenproof fixes to work

rare arrow
#

My brains just real small

#

so I have to pick the easier route

modest perch
#

also i just use vortex for this

rare arrow
#

Oh, I did manual

modest perch
#

i mean vortex sucks for something rly involved like skyrim/witcher or other uncooperative games but its never given me any problems for darktide

strong gulch
#

there's also @summer prairie fix that is a little different

#

has blitz as a category

hearty wolf
#

We did good wins

#

@tulip kettle We did just manage to basically win holding W for most of it unless just perma stopped by hordes

#

so it was doable back to back to back

strong gulch
#

no red

#

i hates red

#

and gas

hearty wolf
#

Yeah for you, red must be v.scary

#

You have little control on killing raging carapace

#

So no ETA on when it will die

#

Must scurry

#

Must rat

#

But no quite pleased with those games, even the lossesd

#

One day I will learn not to revive or look around while reviving 🙏

strong gulch
#

hard lessons to learn tbh

hearty wolf
#

There's something addicting to getting a res just in time

#

I'm thinking you should try running EK shriek more(?)

#

I think it fits your playstyle

#

Plus, you like it

#

Only issue is less EE so more little gunners go pew :(

strong gulch
#

It's easier to me more aggressive with EK for me.

I can get decent EE uptime if I LMB spam and hit something

#

my aim is sus

#

but if not red, I will suppress them

#

might feck up other people's aim tho

hearty wolf
#

I guess purple is the other factor since inferno gets more value out of it

strong gulch
#

purple is def SB and purg damage farming

#

red I thing is when purg really gains traction too

#

that's being said, shriek spam does a good amount of damage even with EK struggling a bit

#

If CC-able, I can keep it up on the target I want because it's not a hard tossed on the floor stagger

fresh reef
#

I'm gonna say it

#

More people need to learn to play with telekine wall, instead of bubble

#

It's absurdly strong for controlling the flow of specials, and it's way more mobile into ranged units

strong gulch
#

and not tall enough for ogryns KEKW_ogryn

fresh reef
#

Okay I did not know that

#

That's fucked up

#

Still a really strong ability though

strong gulch
#

if I can't be assed with mutant train or I want to BB max, x2 wall is nice sometimes

fresh reef
#

I'm using it mainly to defend backline from specials

#

If I take KF with it, the random trapper just killing itself will never not be funny

strong gulch
#

Pretty sure the electrocuted DoT doesn't proc KF

#

It's not considered warp nor non-warp damage.

#

and does proc on kill or attack talents in general

gray juniper
#

Btw does matchmaking prioritize mixed classes?

#

I’m seeing more psykers than ever playing other classes which is interesting

strong gulch
#

So a level 500 isn't usually teamed up with 3 level 17s

#

with arby out

hmm

#

interesting

gray juniper
#

Does the game track past 30?

fresh reef
#

KF triggers on any form of damage, including DoT

fresh reef
#

Also, while I'm awake I feel like I need to spread this info

#

Since walls always stagger away from themselves, putting it diagonally against map geometry will infinitely stagger a trapper to death

#

Or any other special, barring dogs and mutants

Burster chilling in there and you don't have explosive damage to pierce the door? Just put the wall there and it literally cannot leave for 17.5 seconds

#

Psyker and Arbiter really do not compare in terms of damage output

deft stump
#

One dies if shout is on CD and low on 'nades. The other is mini oggy and dog helps.

weary idol
#

Even not accounting for the obviously broken shit with infinite cleave sources from Voidblast and Inferno staff

Gun Psyker kinda runs circles around everybody else in terms of raw damage output

Ya. I think you are delusional if you think psyker and arby do same dmg. I have now played with quite a few good arbys. Never beat me. If anything it may be in one category and I smoke them in the others

without their god doggos arbys are nothing

#

@hearty wolf and @analog agate should fight for top damage. I'd run around and watch. chadgryn

dull scroll
#

if you are just using inferno and running a bubble, dps melee can actually easily out damage you

#

but if you add in vent, your damage goes to infinite, assuming you know what you are doing

ripe obsidian
#

I am too distrusting to run shriek in Havoc with randoms

dull scroll
#

I ONLY run shriek with randoms, since I can't derank 😏

Love that energy tbh. uwugryn

I’m fully in favor of forced culture change

fresh reef
#

Malicious compliance: use walls instead of bubble with randoms

#

They cannot tell the difference until you press F

strong gulch
#

The derank system still being a thing tho, makes throwing games for those still grinding it kinda poopie

strong gulch
fresh reef
#

It gives the same energy as taking off the fall damage reduction upgrade on DRG Engineer's platform gun

strong gulch
#

"Surely the specials will get stopped by the wall."

"AAAAHHHHHHHhhhh!!!"

fresh reef
#

Of note, enemies in spawn doors and sprinting hounds have enough stagger resistance to ignore walls

strong gulch
#

Muties sometimes don't get staggered back enough and just run through.

ripe obsidian
fresh reef
#

Yee, same concept

strong gulch
fresh reef
#

If you place it laterally to the mutant though, it'll get continuously staggered

#

It's tricky to do in a pinch, but quite funny to pull off

@plucky flax Wat. It is true. You need a mod to know if the Engie is a troll or not. The platform gun node for it is literally the only one of that level.

If you had to worry about that, you'd be stepping on eggshells just for playing the game in the way you enjoy

2 questions on the greatsword,
Can the special slash do headshots? And does it actually matter if you release it from a heavy attack or a light attack?

summer prairie
#

No, no

#

technically you do more damage if you cleave with the physical part of your heavy swing but it's never worth the extra time

late rune
#

And i take it the slash counts as warp damage so its affected by all the talents that buff that?

summer prairie
#

yes

weary idol
potent echo
#

It's worth a heavy if you are swinging into a group of armor

late rune
#

yeah but the wave itself isnt affected right same damage either way?

potent echo
#

Yeap

hearty wolf
#

Just don't get stagged if you do a heavy

#

because 0 damage isn't very much

potent echo
#

actually the melee swing portion only the first target gets the full damage

#

well you will be staggering stuff at least

#

ok its not worth to do the heavy the damage of the cleave drops immediately after one target

oh i tried to spawn a friend dog in psyk and it crashed immediately KEKW_ogryn

Where does this rumour keep appearing from

you do pretty good burst damage with EP bb vs weakened monsters

Probably comes from people focusing the damn monstrosity for once and then being surprised they do actual damage

i think theres nothing wrong, and its often the right thing to do, to back up round a corner and bait the gunners close enough to push

but then you have to actually push them!

I'll be the first to admit, scoreboard enables toxicity

#

Still, nice for gauging how people play

rare arrow
#

So you're telling me toxicity doesn't exist currently?

#

a post game scoreboard is just information, by the time they can see the performance you're already gone

fresh reef

Like if they run Deimos, but end up with 68 headshots and do nothing but smite then blame the team for not protecting them when you have the strongest single target stagger in the game

Alternatively you can use nexus/rending for higher damage, but it's a bit slower

#

Blazing/Rending is also a solid setup, but you need to build it differently to actually give yourself crit (or just rely on true aim or Scrier's)

wispy bay
# rare arrow You can on the mod

It wouldn't stop people from judging you. It also makes some very specialized build less appealing because of they focus more on something more and the scoreboard doesn't cover as much.

tulip kettle
#

idk though

#

good enough players know whats up

wispy bay
#

Like the stealth builds can make some of the objective trivial, but using them is a big cut in damage output.

#

Or defensive output

when i do a havoc 40 and 2 players have like 1.2 mil dmg, the psyker has 2 mil, and zealot has 750k

Ideally your team should round out your weaknesses

tired wren
marble crater
#

A gun and melee you like, but mainly assail KEKW_ogryn

#

Inferno staff doesn't feel as bad to use with lower stats, but feels bad to use in lower difficulties because of the lower density of enemies, if you don't mind you can also try that

#

Voidblast and Elektro both generate too much peril to make using them fun just yet and voidstrike is... we don't talk about voidstrike chadgryn

tired wren
#

Is gear score on weapons a big deal? I have a 200 yellow inferno staff and a 300 yellow void strike

marble crater
#

It determines the max stats you can have, so yeah

tired wren
#

Thank you

#

My last question is is it worth it to switch to arbites lol

marble crater
#

Arbites is very fun and strong, but also very easy to play and do well with, because the class is just that strong

#

Maybe not the best class to learn the game with loregryn

#

Or maybe it is the best to learn the fundamentals, as long as you are fine with getting punished on other classes for doing the same things you can shrug off on arbites

last shore
#

Last vet game I did with 3 arbites in hi int aurics

#

As long as you get the fundamentals down of melee, blocking and pushing, dodges, you can do well with most builds.

#

But havoc does have some clear outlier builds so.

marble crater
#

I went back to psyker and vet just to make sure playing Arbites didn’t dull my game sense KEKW_ogryn

lowkey i think vet is better than zealot in havoc

#

just my opinion

jovial juniper
#

500 years of casting and can't even dish out good damage

vestal trench

can db flechette WS vet actually reach purg levels of dmg?

last shore

A good vet is better utility

tulip kettle

shout is just much lower CD than book

vestal trench

in havoc i mean

tulip kettle
#

and plasma gun and gold tag fix problems

last shore
#

And ammo

#

Survivalist is good

tulip kettle
#

against pink its so ez for vet to just pick out the pink guys with gold tag and plasma

#

then you spam shout every 15 seconds on top of that

#

its actually pretty good

#

meanwhile zel is like

#

oh i dont have my book up

#

and either, im playing flamer and so am redundant to psykers inferno

#

or im playing bolter and theres no boss alive

so right now i just run around stabbing trash i guess

Shout works better too with psy aura

So apparently the crit dodge on purgatus was a bug and was fixed. Is it still worth taking that node or do I invest in something else?

long wharf
#

I mean, it is

#

what's wrong with BB?

#

if anything, I'd just make it do a % of the enemy's max health or a flat damage, whichever is more

jovial juniper
#

For 5 damage

But hey, you can go EP for faster casting thumbsup_ogryn

# jovial juniper Wdym

Apparently, the Purgatus flame DOT ticks weren’t meant to be able to crit. These crits were causing the dodge crit node to proc pretty much all the time, making you mostly impervious to gunshots. This has supposedly been fixed now, and so you don’t get the free crit dodges anymore.

jovial juniper
#

That didn't affect EE afaik

#

Only mettle and perfect timing

sullen aurora
#

Oooookay, so that means… still able to get free dodges with purgatus?

long wharf
#

with the right build, you're getting tons of crits constantly with purge anyways

sullen aurora
#

Which is what I’m trying to do.

long wharf
#

it's the attack that spawns the puff of warpfire that crits

#

so yes, you'll still be critting constantly

#

EE is a must for all psyker builds

sullen aurora
#

As someone newer to the game I’m not exactly ashamed to use the meta while I get used to and adjust to how this game plays

long wharf
#

it's literally how you stay alive

#

man, I kinda miss playing psyker

sullen aurora
#

Also, a long running question I’ve had that never actually got answered whenever I asked it - do headshots count as crits? I always assumed not, since you can headshot and crit at the same time, but I wanted to ask anyway

long wharf
#

arbites has been so good

#

not automatically

jovial juniper
long wharf
#

if you inspect weapon attack profiles, you'll see both weakspot and crit damage numbers

sullen aurora
#

So headshots are very much separate to crits

long wharf
#

as well as both combined

sullen aurora
#

Gotcher

long wharf
#

weakspot = aiming

jovial juniper
#

You have

crit = random chance per attack

sullen aurora
#

Yep, so crits are pretty much bog standard RPG crit chance stuff

long wharf
#

yep

sullen aurora
#

Nice to play a game where crit fishing is actually a good strategy lol

long wharf
#

I mean, any game where you can crit, that becomes the "big strategy"

#

Darktide doesn't have complex damage calculations like, say, Diablo

#

you want to crit when you can, and you want to hit weakspots when you can

#

past that, ensuring your weapon is built to maximize its effectiveness on the important armor types, and using your weapon effectively in-game, is the way to more effective play

#

Darktide has a surprisingly high skill ceiling

#

classes like the arbites hides that from new players

#

arbites is almost too good

marble crater
#

Wonder if and when we will see any nerfs to arbites, since it's a paid class KEKW_ogryn

maybe when FartShack gets a chance to work again next spring

man, you are really downplaying how arbites takes advantage of stagger mechanic better than all the other classes

By a single staff

it's not about how many enemies can be staggered at once

it's how the arbites can make things count as staggered where they otherwise wouldn't be

and for a set time frame that you can immediately take full advantage of

arbi is going to top scoreboards while also staggering yeah

jovial juniper

No need to go through 5 billions buff against staggered

more importantly, the arbites "staggering" doesn't make enemies harder for others to get weakspot hits in
